Agricultural Area Plans
Land use planning in British Columbia dates back to the 1930's and today most communities have official community plans. The Local Government Act also makes provision for municipalities and regional districts to develop official plans for portions of their jurisdictions - often referred to as neighbourhood or local area plans.
Starting in the early 1990's, a growing number of local governments have developed local area plans that focus on their farming areas. These plans are often referred to as an agricultural area plan (AAP) or strategy. The Agricultural Land Commission and Ministry of Agriculture (AGRI) actively support local government initiatives to develop agricultural area plans.
An agricultural area plan focuses on a community's farm area to discover practical solutions to issues and identify opportunities to strengthen farming and ultimately to contribute to agriculture and the community's long-term sustainability.
Common Elements:
While every agricultural planning area is unique, with a specific set of challenges and opportunities, there are a number of common elements to the process of developing an AAP:
the planning process is lead by the municipality or regional district; |
care is taken in defining the agricultural planning area; | ||||||
an agricultural planning steering committee normally guides the process; | ||||||
the steering committee should be inclusive of members of the farm community- an agricultural advisory committee may be called upon to assist or act as the AAP steering committee; | ||||||
Ministry and Agricultural Land Commission representatives are often asked to participate and provide resource assistance; | ||||||
the information base is strengthened by such means as land use inventories, statistical material and the development of a background report; | ||||||
issues and opportunities are identified to guide the emerging plan policies; | ||||||
the plan's policies are intentionally "action oriented" providing practical solutions to the local issues that are identified. | ||||||
a clear plan for implementation is included; and | ||||||
organizations best positioned to implement solutions are identified. |
For local governments that may be interesting in developing an agricultural area plan, Ministry and Agricultural Land Commission staff are pleased to provide advice based on its experience working on similar projects with other municipalities and regional districts. The Ministry has developed some introductory material related to agricultural area plans to assist with local planning efforts.
Completing an agricultural land use inventory of the planning area is often an important first step to enhance the information base. The Ministry has developed guide material related to land use inventories and GIS applications to assist local governments. The Ministry may also be able to assist the process with the development of agricultural statistical products where information is available.
The Investment Agriculture Foundation of BC provides funding assistance. For more information on funding assistance on plan development, contact Investment Agriculture Foundation.

Jeff from Murfreesboro, TN
At first it does great. Depends on how long you listen to your system. The amp is not of great quality. It will run hot and shut itself off. If you purchase this keep all your original packaging because you'll pay deep out of your wallet to send it back to SonicElectronix. Over all I hated this product. Don't wast your money or your time. It aint worth it.

Matt from Tulsa, OK
I bought this package 6 months ago. Subs are pretty good and hit decently hard, they'll shake your rearview a little, but not too audible outside the car. Amp however is crap. Overheats pretty bad and I only have it at 2/3 gain. I hardwired a laptop fan under it, and seems to help it. I would recommend to beginners, or those people who just want crisp bass. If you're looking to rattle the car next to you... Invest in a higher-end system!

alex from Moline, IL
This was my first setup I've had in my car, and they shook my mirrors. It was weird, 'cause I couldn't hear them outside of my car unless I had my head in the window. Wish they could've put 'em in a bigger box though.

Review by
SnowKing from Gunnison, CO
I bought this system over summer and I had them bumping all summer long, and even all the way on a drive from NC to CO which is a far drive. Worked great when I did go to feel the amp was hot. The subs bumped pretty well I thought until after arriving in CO and driving for another couple months the amp went dead. So, I picked up a BOSS PH2.600 amp off here and when that puppy came in was a great day for my ears. I thought the subs were good at first, but with a true better quality amp these subs bump so hard, and a lot crisper and clearer sound. Get them and possibly buy upgrade amp right away or wait til the other comes with it dies. It's still a great deal. It's hard to find a complete sub kit better than this price.

The purchase of my Sonic subwoofer kit was very good experience from start to finish. I'm very happy with the speakers and the kit had all the necessary parts to install the sub-woofer. The only thing that I would have liked in addition would be a grill to protect the speakers.

Review by
Pee Jay from Valencia Ca
They sounded great when I first got them. They bumped, but wasn't super loud. And definitely did not feel like 1200W. The subs blew out within a couple weeks. I took it back to sonic and they gave me new subs. Those blew out in a couple weeks as well. I swapped them out for some pioneers, and they sound WAY better then this Visonik crap. But my amp would over heat, and sometimes shut itself off. It recently died, and now im in the market for a new amp. I had the amp for about a year. I will never buy another Visonik product again.

Jared from Joliet, IL
I bought these when i heard my cousin's subs and like them. He had twelves though. when i got these they were great they sounded great and they did what they were made for. i had them in a 2000 accord ex and they were perfect for it. They didnt take up the whole trunk so i could still use it. they sounded good but they only shaked the mirrors a little on the right songs. for only 155 it is the cheapest starter set you will find. if you are just getting into subs get these it is worth it. if you have these and want to upgrade sell the subs and keep the amp. you can buy a pair of kicker comp 12s and a box for around 200. those wont disappoint that is what i have know in a 2000 civic ex. the only problem with those is you wont have any of your trunk left but you just have to pick what you want.

Review by
Tanner from Chico, CA
So far so good but i was expecting them to be louder based on other peoples reveiws, mine are in a trunk however and that dampens them alot. They definitely add a good amount of bass to the music and definitely not to the point of it being overpowering. The wiring kit is garbage though and i recomend you buy new wiring for it. Overall, id say you get the amount of bass you pay for. id like to be able to turn my subs up to the point where you drown everything out just for fun, but you wont be able to do that, not in my car anyway (2000 3 series bmw)

Review by
Eddie from Waco, TX
We bought this Sub-Woofer and amp to go with our Jensen DVD Head Unit. We installed it in our Motorhome. Before we bought the Combo. I had read the reviews on it, the people that bought the system were quite happy with it. We are very happy with it also, regardless if we are listening to music or watching movies, the amp is barely warm, and the subwoofers just keep pounding hard. I really love the remote adjust, sometimes we need more bass sometimes less, just reach down and adjust. So I say yes buy this combo, don't let the low cost scare you, and sounds just as good as the system we had in our other Motorhome, I installed a Kicker Amp. and a JBL 12" Comp sub in it. Like the other folks I also used my own Power Cables, I used 4 gauge. I saved the supplied cables for something else. So buy and enjoy!

Review by
Zoid from Tahoe City, CA
This set up was fairly easy to install but comes with NO speaker wire! Make sure you have some! I would only recommend this kit to someone who doesn't plan on bumping it too hard. That's what I thought I was but I got addicted and I'm looking to really bump up my system. The left casing on the actual sub came loose and I don't know what to do about it because it's on the actual speaker and I don't want to mess it up. Good first kit, don't plan on having it for more than two years I would say. You will want more. And more.
April 3, 2011 | Great price. Decent quality. |
Review by
Polo from Collinsville, Illinois
The price on this package cannot be beat. The quality is pretty good but definitely not the best. Those who say these compare to the super expensive subwoofers have never experienced the more high-end market. The quality is extremely good for the price. Great learners kit for beginners. Like the others said, the wiring kits isn't too good. I got a $25 kit from Wal-Mart and it works great. I would recommend these to somebody on a budget but if you have wiggle room, buy higher quality subs.

Eddie from Waco, TX
I bought this System because of the Reviews I had read on it, It lives up to those Reviews. I got the Visonik V210BS for our Motorhome, so not only does it deliver Sub-Bass for Music but also for Video, for that Home Theater Sound. We also bought the Jensen HD/DVD Head-Unit to go with it, together they really deliver. It is the second time I have done this to a Motorhome, the first time it was a Jensen HD Unit with a JBL Cast Basket 12" Sub (It's weight about18 to 20 lbs. it was heavy),with a KICKER Comp Amp. Combo, of course it cost three times what the Visionik System did, but I must say the Visionik System hits just as good if not better! I did use my own 4 gage Power & Ground Cables, I will not bad mouth the supplied cables, OMG you are getting a good Amp., a Dual 10" Vented Box with Sub-Woofers, I did use the RCA Cables, I put my Meter on them, they put out a good signal. Besides I can use the other cables for something else. So if you are looking for good Bass and don't want to spend a lot of money, this system really hits hard, don't forget the remote adjust, I really recommend this System, you will not be disappointed!

NewtoBass from Akron,New York
Now I just installed these in my car earlier today. I was really looking for something cheap simply to replace the stock subwoofers in my car. After they were in the car I was expecting all that much, needless to say everything around me was shaking to hell. The seats were rumbling excessively. Great Value, Only thing I can say is the wiring kit isn't that amazing. Second, wire the power through your fuse box. It's alot easier with the cable this set comes with. Inline Fuse is a requirement too that this does not come with.

jonathon from jayton, texas
This system is an amazing buy. It bumps so loud to be so cheap. The only problem with it is like someone else said, the ports are kinda crappy. I plugged them up with some t shirts and it sounds WAY better as a sealed box. i have never had a problem with the subs cutting out or overheating, the amp gets warm but never hot. i have it in my 1998 dodge ram 2500. it has a straight pipe exhaust system and it is LOUD. most of the time people around me have no problem hearing my system. I cant express how amazed by the price and value of these subs and amp. I would recommend to anybody looking for a good cheap system. I did use a way better amp kit, didn't trust the one it came with, but the power wire works great for good speaker wire.

Review by
James from Highlands Ranch, CO
I was skeptical about these subs because they were so cheap, yet had good reviews. I have a 2001 Jetta Sedan, so I threw them in the trunk and mounted the amp to the back of it. Let me say so far the amp is great, the subs are good too, but when you turn the bass boost all the way up, it is distorted but only if you open the trunk while they are playing, but they sound great in the car. I had it done by a professional audio guy that said they are great quality, although the amp kit was crap, he charged me 30 bucks for a replacement one, and I recommend anyone doing it do the same. I have a sedan as previously stated and my friend has a SUV with 2 12's. Mine sound as good as his, I asked my guy about it and he said that 2 10's are better for a sedan because there is less air to push and the bass waves don't have far to travel, so 2 10's in a Sedan are the same as 2 12's for a SUV/Hatchback. Also with 10's, you just hear bass and bump, you cant hear the huge thump from the trunk with 12's. Not to mention the enclosure isn't that big so you can still use your trunk. The bass in this car rumbles the license plate, and definitely impresses the friends and overall just sound awesome. I wanted something that would sound good, and also turn some heads; with this, I got both.

Review by
Phillip from Lubbock, TX
This product is amazing, this isn't my first system but because my nice system got stolen I had to find something to give me beat and for the price I couldn't be happier. I already had the boss 8 farad cap from my old system and it goes great with this, other reviews said that the amp got really hot and it does but with a good cap the temperature problem goes down allot. The ports on the box suck, they don't allow for enough air movement but so far that's the only bad thing. Over all very happy with this product I would definitely recommend it to other people.

Review by
Jose from Oxnard, CA
I was hearing so many bad things about visonik but nothing but good things about these subs. I got them hooked up as soon as i got them and they pound pretty hard and the amp doesn't warm up until i turn up the bass knob. If you're looking for your first bass system stop thinking and get these they're worth it definitely for the price

Kai from Long Island, NY
The subs hit harder then i expected for the price and the amp is great too. The Only complaint is the instructions were horrible. Luckily i know a lot about cars and electronics, for the average joe this would be almost impossible to assemble. Over all i am impressed with how hard they hit. This is a great first system for anyone.

I have purchased this product for my son, and he loves it. Sometimes I regret it with how loud the bass is. It's crazy how kids nowadays listen to music. I actually love it too! The product was easy to install, and owner's manual is dummy proof. Visonik has made it so simple for the average joe to complete an install.
Overall the best!

Riley from Oceanside, CA
Okay so first off, the wiring kit that comes with it is completely junk, invest in a different kit. Hooked the one up and they just would not hit, then hooked up a 4 Gauge and they sounded so much better. Now when I got the package, opened it up, everything is very clean and individually wrapped. Bass Booster was shot, it was all bent up, but that was shipping. These subs sounded pretty good with the amp on 1/4 gain, then after about 4 hours of playing, I boosted it up to 2/4 and I was blown away. Then thought hey why not 3/4 so i did, and OMG! My mirrors were shaking like crazy, my rearview was going crazy, my bandanna on the mirror was bouncing. Just wow these subs are definitely some sleepers. You would never expect the crispness and loudness out of 10's. They hit lows surprisingly well for 10's. You can also hear the bass from about 80-100ft away. Great buy, Great starter pack, great everything. Sounds better than my cousins 1 L7. (To him and me).

Ok this is my first system that I have hooked up but it has been amazing thanks to these subs. I put a new radio in my truck and was looking for some thing to make it bump and boy did this set up work. Some of my friends cant even ride bc of the bass and it can make your vision blurry if you turn it up. Who ever blew these where complete dumb s****.

Defense Acquisitions:
Analysis of Processes Used to Evaluate Active Protection Systems

Active Protection Systems (APS) protect vehicles from attack by detecting and intercepting missiles or munitions. In 2005, the lead systems integrator for the Army's Future Combat Systems (FCS) program sought proposals for an APS developer and design and to deliver APS prototypes on vehicles by fiscal year 2009. Raytheon was chosen the APS developer. At the same time, the Department of Defense's Office of Force Transformation (OFT) evaluated near-term APS for potential use in Iraq. GAO was asked to review the Army's actions on APS/FCS: (1) the process for selecting the subcontractor to develop an APS for FCS and if potential conflicts of interest were avoided; (2) the timing of the trade study and if it followed a consistent methodology to evaluate alternatives, and the results; (3) the role the Army and Boeing played in selecting the developer; and (4) the process followed to provide a near-term APS solution for current forces.
In selecting the APS developer, the Army and Boeing--the FCS lead systems integrator--followed the provisions of the FCS lead systems integrator contract, as well as the Federal Acquisition Regulation, in addressing organizational conflicts of interest. No officials from the offering companies participated in the evaluation and all offerors were evaluated based on the same criteria. Four proposals were evaluated and three were determined to be comparable in terms of cost and schedule. The winner--Raytheon--was chosen on technical merit, as being more likely to meet APS requirements although its design had less mature technology. The APS development contract required the source selection winner to perform a trade study to assess alternatives and select the best design for development, and the Raytheon design was chosen. The trade study applied a consistent methodology to all alternatives before selecting Raytheon's vertical launch design. While the role played by Raytheon in the trade study was in accordance with its contract, the rationale for having the trade study follow the source selection is not entirely clear. The purpose of the trade study was to select the best concept; yet the source selection process that preceded it had, in fact, chosen Raytheon primarily on the technical merits of its vertical launch design concept. Although the vertical launch technology is not mature, the Army estimated that it could be available for prototype delivery to current force vehicles in fiscal year 2009 and tested on a FCS vehicle in 2011. This may be an optimistic estimate, as the FCS vehicle is yet to be fully developed. The Army and Boeing were extensively involved in APS source selection and the trade study. FCS officials actively participated and concurred in the final selection of the APS developer. FCS officials and technical experts from Army research centers took part in the trade study and helped choose the vertical launch design. Boeing officials took part in various ways and, with the Army's concurrence, selected Raytheon as the APS developer, participated in the trade study, and recommended the vertical launch approach. In its pursuit of a different APS concept, OFT was responding to an urgent need statement issued by the Central Command with potential for near-term fielding. This evaluation centered on the results of physical testing of the most technically mature candidate system, the Trophy. Decisions on how to proceed with Trophy involved disagreement between OFT and the Army. While the Trophy tests were successful, the Joint Rapid Acquisition Cell decided to defer fielding the APS system, based in part on the recommendation of Army officials, who believed that testing had not been realistic and integrating it on the platform would delay fielding other useful capabilities. OFT officials proposed additional testing of Trophy to answer these questions, but funding for further OFT testing of this system was discontinued after the Joint Rapid Acquisition Cell's decision.
Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: In commenting on our draft report, DOD non-concurred with our recommendation, stating that the original decision in May 2006 that delayed delivering FSEP capabilities (including active protection) due to technical development and performance risks remain true. In our evaluation, we stated that testing of near-term active protection systems is valuable for answering remaining questions about such systems and to provide insights for the employment of future systems. After our report was issued, the Institute for Defense Analysis recommended additional active protection system testing and demonstrations. Also, the Senate Armed Services Committees recommended more active protection system testing in its markup of the fiscal year 2008 defense authorization bill, which became part of Public Law 110-181.
Recommendation: Because of the likelihood that the Army will introduce APS into its forces, the Secretary of Defense should support additional testing and demonstration of near-term APS systems on the Full Spectrum Effects Platform or similar vehicles to, at a minimum, help develop tactics, techniques, procedures, and concepts of operations for both near-term and long-term active protection systems.

WASHINGTON - The Obama administration is changing the guard. Minutes after the president retook the oath of office, he formally submitted nominations for his new secretary of state, secretary of defense and CIA director. Two days later, remnants of red, white and blue inaugural bunting, bleachers and security fences were still up at the U.S. Capitol and along Pennsylvania Avenue when Congress came back to "work." Temporary barricades, snow fence, partially disassembled Jumbotrons and hundreds of miles of cables and wires - the detritus of "the longest inaugural parade in history" - didn't deter our elected representatives from "investigating" the Sept ...
It was in 1981 that the United States Supreme Court, in a decision that I still have trouble explaining to my students when I teach it, held that it was constitutional for the Selective Service, acting under the authority of Congress and the president, to require all men - but not women - between the ages of 18 and 25 to register for a potential draft.
"With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest, or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided they'd they go kill some Americans? What difference, at this point, does it make?" Secretary of State Hillary Clinton asked the Senate Foreign Relations Committee at a hearing on the Sept. 11, 2012, attack in Benghazi, Libya, which left U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, Tyrone Woods, Sean Smith and Glen Doherty dead. "It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can ...
Newsweek stopped its print edition at the end of 2012, but they still tried to scandalize the country by producing a fake cover honoring Obama's second inauguration as "The Second Coming." This absurd attempt at myth making is a natural progression. The "cover" story was written by Evan Thomas, who proclaimed on MSNBC a few years ago that Obama was "sort of like God" in being above the gritty political fray.
The Trans-Pacific Partnership free-trade agreement, being negotiated in secret even as we speak, has a lot to say about worker rights and environmental protections. This pact, which is shaping up between the United States and 10 other nations, comes out squarely against them.
On Super Bowl Sunday, 50 lucky fans will be on the field with R&B superstar Beyoncé during the halftime show, thanks to a Pepsi sweepstakes. Slightly less lucky winners will have their photos seen by millions during the halftime show, even though they won't be at the Super Bowl themselves.
The re-election of Barack Obama hasn't done anything to make more jobs available to Americans, and there is no indication that it will. America now has 23 million people who want a full-time job but can't find one.
In the days before the re-inauguration of President Obama, there have been the usual curtain raisers, with the usual suspects screaming from their respective corners about the usual stuff.
As President Barack Obama's second term commences, I thought I'd write about the things I liked in his first term. Here are five:
DEAR DIDI: I am hoping you can help solve a disagreement that my husband and I have been having. We love your column and your answer will be our 'tiebreaker' of sorts. My husband thinks our dog should spend nights outside in the yard to protect our home. I feel sorry for him and want him in the house but my husband says I baby him too much. What do you think? Caring Mom in Manteca, CA
CLARK COUNTY, Nev. - Official Washington has the collective attention span of a fruit fly. This condition is exacerbated by the Obama administration's proclivity for declaring selective events and issues to be crises that require immediate action. The problem is aggravated because the loyal opposition is in nearly total disarray, and few in the so-called mainstream media have any idea what they are talking about.
Top corporate chieftains and Wall Street gamblers want to tell Washington how to fix our national debt, so they've created a front group called "Fix the Debt" to push their agenda. Unfortunately, they're using "fix" in the same way your veterinarian uses it - their core demand is for Washington to spay Social Security, castrate Medicare and geld Medicaid.
As politicians in Washington debate whether new laws should be issued to tighten up on background checks, impose limits on assault weapons and regulate ammunition sales and the like - a debate likely to be dominated by politics - it is worth focusing on the other side of the gun question, the public health side.
Like a lot of Californians, Stockton businessman Matt Davies, 34, expected that when Barack Obama was elected in 2008, the new administration would not prosecute medical marijuana dispensaries operating under a law passed by California voters in 1996. After all, as a candidate, Obama contended that he saw federal enforcement against medical marijuana as a waste of resources.
My eyes filled with tears as I listened to the parents of the victims of the shooting in Newtown, Conn., speak out, many for the first time. They gathered to announce the founding of a nonprofit group, Sandy Hook Promise. Their purpose was to engage in the public dialogue about what they called "gun responsibility." They want something positive to come from their children's deaths.
Until recent years, marijuana prohibitionists have been able to intimidate most reform-minded politicians by simply threatening to brand them as "soft on drugs."

In 2012, according to the CDC, 140 blacks were killed by police. That same year 386 whites were killed by police. Over the 13-year period from 1999 to 2011, the CDC reports that 2,151 whites were killed by cops - and 1,130 blacks were killed by cops.

Ask anyone under 40 to identify Paul McCartney or "I Want to Hold Your Hand," and the odds are you'll get a blank look in return.

After all, it's over and we won, right?
When America was hit on 9/11, the world united around us. France just had its 9/11, and again the civilized world has come together, all except the United States. Where were America's leaders as the rest of the world united?
Minutes to midnight on New Year's Eve, I sat around a fire with friends, discussing plans for 2015. I told them mine: to hike over 200 miles on the John Muir Trail through the High Sierras, by myself.
Here's what I love about the French: They've long understood the dangers presented by radical Islam. French President Francois Hollande swiftly called the deadly Wednesday shooting at Paris' Charlie Hebdo magazine "an act of exceptional barbarity," without doubt a terrorist attack. There was no hedging. The Socialist leader didn't engage in the sort of blather White House spokesman Josh Earnest offered on MSNBC shortly after the shootings. Earnest called the attack a "terrible act of violence," but not necessarily terrorism.
Congress, which had been so tied up in a partisan knot by right-wing extremists that it became unable to move, suddenly sprang loose at the end of the year. Before heading home for the holidays, it put on a phenomenal show of acrobatic lawmaking.
For the third time, the cops of the NYPD have turned their backs on the mayor of New York.
While last year's voters put a pack of reactionaries in charge of the new Congress, let's not forget that bigger majorities of the same electorate leapt at the chance to say "yes" to an array of unabashedly progressive ballot initiatives.
"The Interview" is a funny movie that does a stand-up job showcasing how a not particularly serious or informed person would deal with Kim Jong Un - and evil itself, with all its blandishments. James Franco plays talk show host Dave Skylark, who discovers that the North Korean dictator loves his show. Skylark's susceptibility to flattery renders him willfully blind. Because Kim plays up to him, Skylark wants to believe that the phony grocery his chauffeured car happens to drive by is real, that reports that Kim starves his people are the result of media bias and that Kim, like ...

Overall, these lights are nice, however there are several problems.

The Madras High Court Bench in Madurai has ordered the State government to form a committee to probe into alleged abuse of children in a juvenile home at Thanjavur.
The Madras High Court Bench here has ordered the State government to form of a three-member committee to probe into alleged exploitation and abuse of children lodged in a juvenile home at Thanjavur.
Justice T.S. Sivagnanam directed the Social Welfare Department Secretary to form a committee comprising a Government nominee, an eminent social worker with expertise in juvenile care and protection and a representative from an NGO.
The committee was asked to file a report within six months after investigating allegations of child abuse and conducting a detailed inquiry into the facilities available in the juvenile home, the health condition of the inmates and other incidental issues.
The order was passed while dismissing a writ petition seeking an inquiry by the Crime Branch-Criminal Investigation Department into the death of an employee in the juvenile home on June 8, 2008 after he was assaulted by six inmates.
The son of the deceased claimed that the Superintendent and few other employees of the home had instigated the juveniles to kill his father because the latter had lodged a complaint against them for subjecting the inmates to homosexuality.
Mr. Justice Sivagnanam said that the allegations levelled against employees of the home could not be a ground to transfer the investigation from the local police to the CB-CID. He said investigation could be transferred only in the rarest of rare cases.
Nevertheless, the judge ordered an inquiry by the three-member committee considering the serious nature of complaints. He pointed out that a departmental enquiry had also been conducted against one of the employees.
Quoting Rabindranath Tagore that "Every time a child is born, it brings with it the hope that God is not yet disappointed with man," the judge said that it was time to keep a check on the exploitation of children.
He listed out various international conventions and Central as well as State statutes, promulgated on protecting the rights of children, starting from the Madras Children Act passed in 1920 by the erstwhile Madras Presidency, now Tamil Nadu.
The Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2000 uses the term 'home' to refer to a place where the juveniles were lodged only with the intention to reform the children who require special care and protection, the judge added.

Condoleezza Rice talks successes, failures of past 8 years
Rice, who sat down with CNN's Zain Verjee in a wide-ranging exit interview, also said her historic trip to Libya in September to meet with leader Moammar Gadhafi was one of the high points of her service.
'"The thing I never expected was to actually be in Libya face-to-face with Colonel Gadhafi," Rice said."That probably stands out as one of the extraordinary moments."...
Rice was critical of the news media's focus on last week's incident in Baghdad, where an Iraqi journalist threw his shoes at President Bush during a news conference, but predicted the long view of history would put the event in proper perspective.
"Those who are supposed to be reporting for history didn't focus on the historical moment, which is that this was the president of the United States in Baghdad, for goodness' sakes, with a freely elected prime minister in a show of friendship," Rice said.
"Do I really think that 30 years from now or 20 years from now or 10 years from now, that will be -- a shoe being thrown at the president -- is somehow going to be what was important about Iraq? Of course not."

Another koi! 8D Sadly, because of how big this is, I had to take a photo, which of course killed all the detail and colors. It is much more vibrant and sharp in real life! I hate making it so large because this is ment to be looked at slightly further away, you see more detail rather then up close
This is going into my art portfolio to sell at the Red Brick Galleries in southern CA. I need to have at least 7 that are uniform in theme, so far I have 3, and working on another.
I will have this up for sale, and of course prints, later to pay for member ship, so if anyone is interested shoot me a email ^^
This is a style I normally do not show you guys, its a semi-realism with loose free style colors that blend with the focus. I have been trying to perfect it for years...

A man about his height simply scoffed, stepping aside as Romano slipped by, his head lowered in anger, his hands shoved into his pockets. He didn't know where he was going, he was just walking, getting the most distance from his idiot of a brother. He was the reason Romano was in this very building, roaming aimlessly. At this point he didn't care where exactly he traveled; all that mattered was that he needed a break from people.
"Lovi!~" Romano instantly froze as he heard the high-pitched cheer from a very familiar voice: Spain.
Romano looked over his shoulder to see that Spain was squeezing his way through the wave of people to get to him. Eyes wide, Romano gritted his teeth and broke into a sprint across the slick floor, the heel of his dress shoes clicking as they came into contact with each other. Behind him, he heard.
"Lovi?! Wait, amigo!" No way in hell was he going to go back.
After running for a few minutes, he skidded around a corner, putting a hand on the wall as he bent over, regaining his breath. He really needed to get in shape. After he gained his breath, Romano's olive eyes scanned the area, seeing it was fairly deserted. He grinned to himself, glowing in his self victory of escaping the annoyance of humans. Standing straight, the Italian sauntered towards an unoccupied bench near a strange potted plant. He wasn't quite sure what type of plant it was, but he could care less. All that he cared about was the fact that he was finally away from any source of headache.
Leaning back against the bench, his arms stretched across the back, he closed his eyes to enjoy the silence, the relaxing, serene, absolutely perf-
"Fuck!" a feminine voice called out loudly, breaking his quietude that he so strongly enjoyed. Angered forest eyes snapped open to glare at the source of the disturbance, looking onto a (color) eyed girl with (color) hair gripping her foot as if something had fallen on it.
"Shut the fuck up!" he snapped back, his teeth bared as he snarled lightly.
"Shove it up your ass you prick!" she snapped back in return, her finger raised proudly towards him as she gripped her foot. Romano's eyes suddenly widened as his chest panged in a foreign feeling.
"I think I'm in love...Fuck."

STAPLES Center, Los Angeles, CA
LOS ANGELES -- Kobe Bryant didn't shoot much, didn't score much and didn't need to.
Bryant led seven Los Angeles Lakers in double figures with 16 points on 5-of-12 shooting and had eight rebounds Wednesday night in a 117-79 blowout that spoiled the Los Angeles Clippers' season opener.
Andrew Bynum added 12 points and nine rebounds, Derek Fisher and Jordan Farmar scored 15 each, Pau Gasol had 13, Trevor Ariza 11 and Chris Mihm 10.
"It feels good to be out there working together, being aggressive and playing hard," said Gasol, who had nine rebounds and is a force at forward since he no longer has to fill in at center.
The new-look Clippers seemed essentially like their usual sub .500 selves, no match for the talent and versatility of the defending Western Conference champion Lakers.
Baron Davis had 11 points on 4-of-13 shooting in his Clippers' debut, with seven assists. Al Thornton scored 16 points, and Cuttino Mobley and Tim Thomas each had 11.
"It was a rude awakening for us, to let us see that mountain we've got to climb," Davis said. "Did I expect to lose like that? No. Do I expect us to go 0-7? No.
"We're going to just have to figure it out on the fly."
The Lakers began their season with a similar rout a night earlier, breezing to a 96-76 win at home against Portland on Tuesday.
Even coach Phil Jackson didn't expect the Lakers' opening two games to be so one-sided.
"We have to say it's a surprise, (but) our team is playing at a high level," he said. "Our next game is on the road (at Denver on Saturday), so it's a team that has a lot of animosity I'm sure from last year's playoffs. We'll see how we do when we go to their place."
The Lakers swept Denver in the first round.
As they did against the Trail Blazers, the Lakers played suffocating defense, holding the Clippers to 38 percent shooting while shooting 51 percent themselves and going 10-of-19 from 3-point range.
Bynum, back after a knee injury last January that sidelined him for the rest of the season, went 4-of-7 from the floor and helped jam up the middle on defense, blocking three shots.
"We went out there and played great defense tonight again, and as long as we hold teams to under 80 points, I think we're doing a pretty good job," Bynum said. "I think the record for that is six straight (under 80) and we're going to try and go after it."
The Lakers' depth, he said, helps on both ends of the court.
"Everybody came in from the starting five to the second unit and moved the ball around and got a bunch of fast break points," he said.
The Clippers, who lost longtime mainstay Elton Brand and Corey Maggette among others during the offseason, have nine newcomers who played for other teams last season.
Davis played just one preseason game because of a finger injury, and another new addition, Marcus Camby, is out with a bruised right heel.
Down 33-32, the Lakers got some spark from the reserves and reeled off a 24-6 string beginning with Farmar's running jumper with 8:18 remaining in the second quarter. Ariza scored eight points during the run and Farmar had five points, three assists and a rebound.
That helped the Lakers open a 56-39 lead with 1:06 remaining and they were up 59-44 at halftime.
They outscored the Clippers 26-13 in the third quarter and were ahead 85-57 heading into the final quarter.
Game notes
Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy said before the game he thinks the Lakers may be the best club in the NBA. "Defensively they should be one of the top three teams and then they've got Kobe Bryant at the end of the game to cancel all bets," Dunleavy said. "If I'm picking, that's who I'm picking to win it all if they're healthy." ... The Clippers finished 23-59 last season while the Lakers kept going until they lost Game 6 to Boston in the NBA finals. ... The Lakers went 4-0 against the Clippers last season, winning by an average of 26 points.

Both vsftpd and libcap have a problem where they're using the old way of making syscalls that aren't supported in newer kernel headers. Try a newer libcap release: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/security/linux-privs/kernel-2.6/ The code where vsftpd is failing to build is where it's doing the capset syscall, which libcap would do if it was installed. I'll also attach a patch for vsftpd I made a long time ago that I'm not entirely sure is correct, but I think it is. -- Dan -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Winners of the February Black & White contest
"This is a photographer who's not afraid to get wet!" judge Stan Grossfeld of the Globe Photo Staff said of the First Place finisher in our February "Black & White" contest. "This photo has great energy and feeling, and uses light very well. It's a beautiful composition, very clean, slightly off-center, with good highlights and shadows and a great full water splash. I can tell the photographer used a wide-angle lens, crouched down, leaned forward, and took one for the team. A high shutter speed was used to freeze every droplet. The fact that you can't see most of the diver is interesting ... sometimes what you don't see makes a photo more alluring. I'm sitting here on a gloomy winter day in Boston, and this photo transports me to where I really want to be!"
"This photographer recognized that when you have a high-contrast composition, you don't need midtones," Stan said during his judging session. "This photo makes a statement with just light and shadow. I know I said before that good black and white photos need black blacks, strong highlights, and midtones throughout, but all rules are made to be broken. A lot of photographers would have moved in and just shot the quartet of horses. This photographer recognized the conflict between man and nature, the clash of two cultures. Without the power lines, it could be a scene from the 11th century. The power lines add an almost spider web effect, and in some ways, the horses seem penned in by man. I would have tried to even out the sky and eliminate the lighter spot in the upper left corner, because light areas draw your eye. But that's a minor point; this is a great photo that makes a statement."
"I just love the composition here -- it's very, very strong," Stan said about the Third Place winner. "And it's a beautiful print, with black blacks, detail in the highlights, and great tones. Not one part of the frame is unused -- there is so much to look at here. This photographer made good decisions about framing. If the photographer had pulled back, the photo may have included too much of the railings and not been so dramatic; closer, and you would have lost the scope, the fact that this is a four-story building. I would have waited even a couple of hours for someone to come up the stairs and catch them up against the white wall on the left one floor down to give the photo some scale, but maybe that wasn't possible. It doesn't matter; this photo still is very eye-catching. Congratulations!"

Posted August 17, 2014When our railing's finish needed to be repaired, I grabbed the can of Arm-R-Seal Oil & Urethane Topcoat-Gloss, and I was actually shocked at how good it is.
This is a very easy-to-use and forgiving finish, and the results are top notch.
I have stopped testing... This stuff is awesome!

21 Nickels Grille & Tap 21 Nichols Avenue Watertown, MA 02472 View All Posts |
One more weekend before Turkey day, and the teams came out in grand fashion today. Mountains not to scale can be a challenging subject matter, but why would we make our Pub Quiz easy. If you're out at 21 Nickels make sure you check out the Salt and Pepper wings, they are awesomely tasty in their simplicity and presentation. As always make sure you take care of your Bartenders.
No round this week was unimportant especially the UN round. You got to grab those preliminary rounds if you want to win folks. Now I spent time in Texas and I'm a little bit of an asshole so Round 3 had a special place in my heart.
Now let's get into those scores: "Ric Flair" took home 1st place with a well placed joker, and a woo! "Those Guys" came in 2nd, if they only knew the song those guys in NSYNC performed it would have been sudden death. In 3rd we had "The Brian's" the first time they missed out on 1st place. In 4th "The Lone Ranger" held it down, while her friends came late. "New Team" came really late, but they are new so I won't hold it against them, but I will give the 5th place.
I saw a few perfect rounds out there. You guys really know your violent movies, and it is kind of scary. Have a Happy Thanksgiving. I will not be at 21 Nickels next week, but I will still in your hearts.

If you like the Geeks Who Drink Pub Quiz at 21 Nickels, do your best to support us by helping spread the word. We would love to keep our quiz going, and we need your help. Like us on facebook, feel free link to the blog as well.
I almost thought we were going to cancel, but a few people showed up late. No excuse to you Tasha, you didn't even come in time for the 8th round. You're better off behind the bar, not in front of it. I kid... I kid...
Great questions tonight, with some even better teams. Aren't you lucky that I don't have a monotone Ben Stein like voice, and kept you awake and active the whole quiz. We also learned that you're never too old for a Poo joke.
Our returning champs with the ever changing name came back from a bye week, good thing it wasn't an "Eight Month Vacation," because they took home 1st place. Woo "Ric Flair" is back again and with just enough balance of Pop Culture Geek and a Classic Geek to take 2nd Place. Let's say knowing your Dinosaur Poo always help. "They Don't Think It Be Like This But It Do," took home 3rd. They even stump me on where they got that name; it was from Yankee Oscar Gamble. The "Reapers" came in 4th and in late. Make sure you watch your DVR Sons Of Anarchy at different time, not right before the quiz.

We did it big at 21 Nickels like always. There was a slight 5-minute delay to wait for a few teams to pile in, but a fairly nice turnout as well. I have to start on a serious note and wish all the people who were in the path of Hurricane Sandy my thoughts and prayers.
All around a good game, you have to remember that a well place Joker is all the difference winning and losing. A Pub Quiz, as with life, is a game of inches. It truely saddens me that you know so much about Lady Gaga's followers, but nothing about OPP a true ghetto classic. Gaga did put on some weight too, not that I have problem with that, I just don't know if the name "Little Monsters" is still appropriate. Some team really knew their Adam Sandler movies as well. Great work.
Well we are a results oriented organization, so let's get into the rankings. "The Number X" came in last and got to the bar last to play only one round of trivia. Woo! "Ric Flair" came in 4th brother. Rounding out 3rd and oh so close were "US," the Joker got you this time gang. 2nd with 25% off their bar tab was "Hurricane Sandy's Vagina." However, there can only be one 1st place winner, "Thee Tripod," back with a vengeance and 50% of the bill.
Let me take this time to give a shout out to Darrell from team "US" who bought me two shots! I can't give you answers to the questions, but you did signup for the email bonus question. So you could possibly win some swag next week no matter how crappy your team does.

Surveillance law: US group can't challenge it, Supreme Court rules
A 2008 surveillance law allows the US government to detect and track the messages of would-be foreign terrorists. Critics say it is overly broad, but on Tuesday the Supreme Court blocked a challenge to it.
Alex Brandon/AP/File
The US Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that a group of lawyers, journalists, and human rights researchers lack the necessary legal standing to challenge the constitutionality of a 2008 counterterrorism law authorizing the US government to intercept and analyze massive amounts of telecommunications transmissions.
In a 5-to-4 decision, the high court said that the individuals were relying on speculation and fear of possible surveillance under the US program and were unable to demonstrate that they faced an actual or imminent injury.
Under Supreme Court case law, legal standing is established if a party suffers an injury that must be "concrete, particularized, and actual or imminent; fairly traceable to the challenge action; and redressable by a favorable ruling."
"Respondents' speculative chain of possibilities does not establish that injury based on potential future surveillance is certainly impending or is fairly traceable to [the federal statute authorizing the surveillance]," Justice Samuel Alito wrote for the majority justices.
In a dissent, Justice Stephen Breyer took issue with the majority's use of the words "certainly impending."
"We need only assume that the government is doing its job (to find out about, and combat, terrorism) in order to conclude that there is a high probability that the government will intercept at least some electronic communications to which at least some of the plaintiffs are parties," Justice Breyer wrote.
The decision blocking the lawsuit drew immediate criticism.

The North Dakota Game and Fish Department has completed a draft revision of a 2005 plan that addresses conservation of sage grouse within the state. The Department is accepting public comments on the revised plan through Aug. 1.
The sage grouse plan is available on the Game and Fish website at gf.nd.gov; or by mail by contacting Game and Fish at (701) 328-6300.
The North Dakota Game and Fish Department recently cooperated with Burleigh County to complete major gravel road repairs on the Oahe Wildlife Management Area south of Bismarck.
The project included reshaping and graveling nearly 8 miles of access roads at MacLean Bottoms and Apple Creek, which were severely damaged from the 2011 flood.
The North Dakota Game and Fish Department will conduct the 2013 deer gun lottery the last week in July.
Licensing manager Randy Meissner said several thousand paper applications need to be entered into the system before the lottery is held. "In the past we were able to run the lottery once all regular gun applications were entered, but with the new law it looks like the end of July will now become the normal time period for holding the deer lottery," Meissner said.
North Dakota's 2013 pheasant crowing count survey indicates that rooster numbers were down about 11 percent statewide compared to last year, heading into the spring breeding season.
All four pheasant districts had lower counts than last year. The number of crows heard in the northeast declined by 18 percent, southeast and southwest by 11 percent, and the northwest by nearly 2 percent.
The deadline for submitting photos to the North Dakota Game and Fish Department's annual Watchable Wildlife Photo Contest is Sept. 30.
The contest has categories for nongame and game species, as well as plants/insects. An overall winning photograph will be chosen, with the number of place winners in each category determined by the number of qualified entries.
Contest entries are limited to digital files submitted on disk or via email. Contestants are limited to no more than five entries. Photos must have been taken in North Dakota.
In recognition of the Fourth of July celebration, outdoor recreationists can set up camp Tuesday and Wednesday, July 2-3 on some wildlife management areas that typically prohibit overnight camping those two days of the week.
The North Dakota Game and Fish Department will close the Lewis and Clark and Trenton wildlife management areas to night use, except for those actively engaged in legal fishing and hunting activities. Effective once the signs are in place, the use restriction applies from one hour after sunset to one hour before sunrise.
The North Dakota Game and Fish Department reminds citizens that possession or use of fireworks on state wildlife management areas is prohibited.
The primary objective of a wildlife management area is to enhance wildlife production, provide hunting and fishing opportunities, and offer other outdoor recreational and educational uses. Only activities that would not disrupt the intentions of how these areas are managed are encouraged, and a fireworks display is not compatible.
The next guide and outfitter written examination is Aug. 10 at 1 p.m. at the North Dakota Game and Fish Department office in Bismarck. The test is given periodically to anyone interested in becoming a hunting guide or outfitter in the state.
In addition to passing a written exam, qualifications for becoming a guide include a background check for criminal and game and fish violations; certification in cardiopulmonary resuscitation and standard first aid; and employment by or contract with a licensed hunting outfitter.
The North Dakota Game and Fish Department reminds outdoor recreationists who celebrate the Fourth of July along any heavily-used recreational area to keep it clean by packing out all trash, including fireworks.
All garbage, including used fireworks, should be placed in the proper trash receptacle. If trash cans aren't available, or are full, take the trash and dispose of it at home.
The North Dakota Game and Fish Department is moving the 2013 fall turkey license application deadline, originally set for July 3, to August this year to allow for a better assessment of the fall turkey population before determining license numbers.
The official date for the application deadline has not yet been determined.
North Dakota game wardens issued a record number of citations during the recent paddlefish snagging season.
From opening day May 1until the season closed May 19, wardens cited more than 170 individuals as part of an annual saturation effort in Williams and McKenzie counties. Last year the citation total for a similar timeframe was 82.
