Denial of ticket to senior leaders is an insult, he says
The former Gujarat Deputy Chief Minister and Congress leader, Narhari Amin, along with a host of other leaders, has raised the banner of revolt after being denied ticket in the Assembly elections, declaring on Sunday that they would not campaign for the party's candidates.
Besides Mr. Amin, the former Minister, Naresh Rawal, and others were denied ticket following the high command's decision not to field candidates who had lost two consecutive elections. Mr. Amin was seeking to contest from Gandhinagar South.
At a meeting, attended by scores of their supporters, the leaders gave a two-day ultimatum to the leadership to suitably and "respectfully" accommodate them in the party. This, despite Union Minister and Congress leader Rajiv Shukla holding discussions with Mr. Amin at the latter's residence on Saturday night to quell the resentment.
"Denial of ticket to senior leaders is an insult. The Congress is not going to win the elections in the State," said an angry Amin. He asserted, as his supporters cheered him, "We will not work for the victory of Congress candidates."
Mr. Amin's supporters, including Ahmedabad City Congress president Pankaj Shah, have already quit their posts. Similarly, two sitting MLAs had revolted against the party and filed nominations as independent candidates on Friday.
Congress candidates from Ghatlodia, Sabarmati, Ellisbridge, Naranpura and Thakkarbapanagar in Ahmedabad city had also expressed solidarity with Mr. Amin. After the party leadership ignored the protests, Ahmedabad City Congress chief, 12 municipal corporators, 40 ward presidents, in-charges of 14 Assembly constituencies and 100 other officials had quit their posts.
Earlier, senior Congress leader and former Chief Minister Shankersinh Vaghela had to virtually argue with the high command to wangle a ticket for himself — the Kapadwanj constituency in central Gujarat.
Murmurs of protests were heard from across the State against official nominees ever since the party declared its first list of 52 candidates and it even had to delay announcing the second list, while in some cases quietly handed over the mandates to nominees without declaring any names.

WTO raises outlook for global trade in good sign for economy
Published on Apr 14, 2014 7:44 PM
GENEVA (AFP) - Global commerce is set to grow by 4.7 per cent this year, the World Trade Organisation (WTO) said on Monday, with recovery in rich economies expected to mitigate risks in developing nations.
The WTO previously had forecast that trade would expand by 4.5 per cent in 2014, up from an estimated rate of 2.1 per cent in 2013.
So the latest forecast points to substantially more than a doubling of the growth achieved last year.
Trade is a key measure of the health of the global economy which it both stimulates and reflects.

I'm saddened but I have no choice. I'm very busy with other projects plus to be honest, while I will always remain a NaruSaku fan, Naruto itself has lost my interest forquite a while now.
I've had fun though and hope this group keeps thriving. It deserves someone who can spend more time and effort into it. I'm not that person anymore.
Bye, thanks for the wonderful times. I'll remain a regular member though ^_^.

Who Is Mister Jimmy? Rolling Stone Song Character Has Ties To Minnesota
He was at the drugstore - the Chelsea Drugstore, but in reality that wasn't its name.

When the pop came back, it was plain Coca Cola - not cherry. Sound familiar?

I remember that long summer of 2000 when this show first began. Life as we know it will never be the same again!
Thanks to the success of Survivor, television viewing and creating habits have changed. Now we have reality shows on Fox, NBC, ABC and all the rest of the networks, thanks to Survivor.
A simple premise really--16 strangers picked to survive without basic necessities with one being voted out every three days until there is 1 sole survivor. But, after watching one episode, you see that there is more to it than surviving in the wilderness. You must also survive your fellow castmates. Trick them and then you'll win the million dollar prize.
After 11 seasons, this show still remains strong.

Elton John's Most Lavish Piano, Ever?
Though experiencing the grandiose instrument in person will cost a hefty chunk of change, the full Elton John: The Million Dollar Piano experience is coming to a theater near you. Filmed at Las Vegas' Colosseum at Caesars Palace, the show takes audiences beyond the yellow brick roadto look behind the scenes at what goes into making an Elton John spectacle. Plus, it includes live performances of the Rocket Man's biggest hits. Oh, and speaking of the yellow brick road, viewers are thrown a lil' Easter egg with a never-before-seen look into the creation of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. (Psst! Did you know it's that album's 40th anniversary? Time flies, y'all.)
Despite the Vegas-sized performance, the entire experience is rather intimate. The film really puts the focus on John and his piano. The showbiz glitz is merely frosting on the cake that is The Million Dollar Piano. "I look at it as a piece of art; I'm playing something that will go in the Smithsonian," John has said. "This idea of a piano with LED screens...it becomes cinema!" Cinematic is definitely one way to describe it. We'd have gone with extraordinary, but hey, to each his or her own.
The concert will hit the (ahem) cinemas for one night only tonight with tickets available here. Get a taste of what to expect below.

Rio Haryanto ensured Caterham remained on top of the GP2 testing timesheets on the middle day of running in Bahrain.
The Indonesian driver, who finished 19th in last year's series driving for Barwa Addax, lowered the Day One benchmark set by team-mate Alexander Rossi by 1.5 seconds to 1:39.129 as teams completed qualifying-style simulations in the morning session at Sakhir.
Rossi finished just over four hundredths of a second adrift with a near four tenths of a second gap then back to Carlin's Julian Leal. Raffaele Marciello (Racing Engineering) and Jolyon Palmer (DAMS) completed the top five.
The leading sub-1:40 pace seen in the morning wasn't reproduced in the afternoon session, however, as teams switched to longer race-style runs. Indeed, the difference was underlined by the fact that Haryanto slipped to the bottom of the 26-driver order with a best time six seconds slower than his day-best effort.
The three-day test, the final one of GP2's pre-season schedule, concludes on Friday.

I suspect that they are so new that they do not yet have a reputation. I read on one of the more local gun boards that folks who visited in person got treated ok. But that is just the opinion of a couple guys.
Ok cool, honestly I was more worried about them stealing my credit card not really bad service. Just wanted to make sure it was a real company.

An abstract strategy game based on the sport of Roller Derby.
About this project
Home Stretch!
Just TWO MORE DAYS to get your copy of JammerUp: The Roller Derby Board Game! We're thrilled to have raised enough to get the game professionally produced, and are working hard to pull together a team to help us create a computerized version that you can play in a browser or on your iPhone, iPad or Android device.
You'll be able to buy the game online and in stores in May, but Kickstarter backers at $25 and up will get their games first, at $5 off the retail price, and with fancy glass pawns. Read our updates for more info or better yet, get in on the action and back JammerUp today!
About the Game
JammerUp is an abstract strategy board game modeled after the rules and strategies of modern roller derby.
Above: The complete game includes board, 10 pawns, 14 cards, 1 die, scoresheet or tokens, and rules.
In a 2-player game, each player controls a team of 5 game pawns: four Blockers and one Jammer. A player moves her Jammer through the pack, maneuvering around opposing Blockers, to earn points. This is all done while trying to keep her opponent from doing the same.
JammerUp's rules are simple, but flexible enough for you to develop some great strategies. The best part is that a lot of the same strategies employed on the track are effective in the game.
You can download the entire Beta rule set and watch instructional videos here.
Any little bit helps. If all you pledge is one dollar, you have our sincere gratitude and we'll mention you on jammerup.com's Supporter page (unless you ask us not to).
The Hockey Stop For just $25, you can pre-order JammerUp! Assuming we meet our funding goal, the retail price will be $30 or more, so take advantage of this price while you can. The first edition includes board, 10 pawns (2 teams of random color), cards, die, rules, and score sheet or tokens.
The Hip Check For $40, we'll throw in two extra teams of the colors of your choosing.
The Outside Whip At $80, we'll also include two teams of pewter roller derby miniatures (shown below).
Lead Jammer For $101, you get all of the above, plus an extra copy of the game and your name and/or logo highlighted on our website.
The Apex Jump is a League- or Business-level sponsorship. We will ship 15 copies of JammerUp to any single location in the United States or Canada for $250. That works out to $16.66 per game, and it retails for $30. You'll also get prime placement on the "Where to Buy" page of JammerUp.com.
Please note that all levels include shipping within the United States and Canada. If shipping overseas, please add the amount indicated at each pledge level on the right.
What exactly are we funding?
In short: Production. You are taking this game from idea to reality.
JammerUp is currently in beta testing. We're holding play test sessions all around the country throughout February to gather feedback and make sure the rules of play are bullet-proof.
Above: Beta testing in New York. Beer optional.
Our goal is to produce the first edition in March. We've determined that the minimum cost-effective run will cost about 12 grand. We're investing a lot of the money ourselves, but we also have two kids and a mortgage to think about. So we need to make sure there's really enough interest to support this.
Basically, we don't want to risk being forced to move our family into a hut made out of unsold board games.
That's where you come in. If you want to see this game produced at all, please consider contributing a dollar. If you like board games, give this one a shot and pre-order at only $25. And if you're psyched to see a game that will accurately depict roller derby as the awesome, strategic sport that it is, please contribute as much as you're comfortable with to help us reach our goal.
What would you do with additional funding?
Additional funding is being put toward the development of the iPhone/iPad/Android version of JammerUp so that you can play it anywhere, any time, against any one.
Any video game or computerized version of JammerUp will be DRM-Free.
Above: Can you read the Matrix? This is a snippet of the code that draws the board for digital display. If you squint your eyes, you can see it.
The Back-story
I was on a plane from New York to Vegas kicking myself for forgetting to bring a book. Unable to sleep, I started doodling. I can't actually draw for my life, but I'm obsessed with systems and patterns, and I guess I had derby on the brain. By the end of my flight, I had primitive sketch of a game board and an idea that would haunt me for months.
Then I had to take a break from reffing (Hi Suburbia!) due to some health issues, and I needed some way to fill this derby-shaped hole in my life. My husband and I started tinkering with game mechanics, trying to find a way to translate a fast-paced, full-contact sport to a turn-based tabletop game.
And holy crap, we did it! At some point we realized we weren't designing the game anymore, we were playing it. And it was awesome.
So I invited some derby friends to play it, and they loved it. And then I invited some non-derby friends to play it, and they loved it, too!
We set up a Facebook page and within days had over 1000 fans. My inbox flooded with questions about where you could play or how you could order. I knew I had to get up off my butt and get this game produced.
What can I do to make this happen?
- Spread the word, far and wide. Mention it at practice, talk about it the next time you're playing Settlers of Catan, and encourage your friends to support this project.
- Like us and SHARE us on Facebook. That's where we usually make new announcements first, so you'll be among the first to know what we're up to.
- Comment & share on Twitter and other networks. Did you know there are still some people who don't use Facebook? It's true! And they deserve a roller derby board game, too.
- Contribute today. Every little bit helps, and we appreciate the support immensely.
For More Information
Backers can leave comments here. If you have ANY questions, or just want to say hi, I'd love you to contact me by:
- Emailing me at email@example.com.
- Leaving a comment on our website at jammerup.com
- Posting on our wall at facebook.com/jammerup.
Thank you so much for supporting this project!
Yes and no.The foundation, such as the layout of the track, the rules that govern pawn movement, and most of the game parameters are final. However, we are play testing through February 24, and may make some additional changes based on the feedback of our beta testers. The aesthetic of the board will also be updated, though it will still be a clean, minimal design to allow for easy customization by leagues and teams in the future.
Robin, my husband/partner and co-creator of JammerUp, has been developing a computerized version of the game in his spare time. We think this will make an awesome iPhone/iPad/Android app, and will put any over-funding toward that effort. He's doing all the heavy lifting with the game logic, and we'll need to work with an iOS and Android specialist and a graphic artist to port it to those platforms.
YES! But to do that, I first have to get the game produced. Please help make that happen by spreading the word and encouraging people to back this project.
All of them and none of them. Read more here: http://jammerup.com/2012/02/02/ruuuuules/
We're thrilled that over 400 people have applied to be beta testers, but we can't possibly accommodate everyone. The rules, board design, and demo videos are on our website at http://jammerup.com, and while you may not have an opporutnity to play until you've purchased the game, we welcome and encourage any questions or feedback you may have about the materials we've posted.
Absolutely. We recommend it for ages 8 and up. It's not as complex as chess, but definitely more difficult than checkers. My older daughter is almost 4 and I've already started teaching her some basic moves. By the time she's old enough to join a junior league, she'll be a derby strategy expert!
Right now we are targeting April 30, though that's based on minimal design changes and a relatively fast turnaround from our manufacturer. We will immediately post any updated estimates as we gather more information.
In our experience, yes. We intentionally invited a mix of people intimately familiar with roller derby and people who barely knew anything about derby to play test for us. It took the non-derby folks longer to learn how to play, but once they did, they had positive things to say about the experience.
As an abstract strategy game, JammerUp's mechanics and objective are solid, even without the underlying metaphor. And as an added bonus, those who had very little exposure to real roller derby became interested in learning more about it after having played this game.

The jewel in the center of the Carrera GT crown is a 5.7-liter, 605-horsepower V10 engine originally designed for Le Mans duties, but tweaked to make it suitable for the street. Mated to a standard six-speed manual transmission, this lump helped propel the carbon-fiber-bodied rocket to 60 mph in less than four seconds and 125 mph is approached in less than 10 seconds. Top speed was rated at 205 mph. Though released less than 10 years ago, this road-legal race car is already considered a classic, and the world's appreciation for this car will only continue to grow with time.

Halo 4
Ragnarok is the worst map in the game
- Back To:

I prefer the Mantis over the Banshee but I wish they just replaced it with another Warthog. Not with Wheelman. The only time a Mantis backed by Wheelman is going to get taken down by the plasma pistol is if he's being an idiot and charging into a crowd. --- Invading world of the guilty as spirit of vengeance The guilty pay the price. I hate Square-Activision's FFXIII and its slew of cash-in spin-offs & sequels | |
If someone has Wheelman, I just plasma pistol it twice and then put 2 sniper shots into it. Either it dies or it's pilot does. Even then still find it rare to encounter someone with Wheelman though I wouldn't be surprised if Mantis "abusers" have a loadout just for using the Mantis. | |
Abandon is worst map imo. camping + Boltshot Boltshot Boltshot --- Soul Silver FC: 4684 0697 3217 My Rattata is in the top percentage of rattatas!!!!! | |
Paragon049 posted... Yes, clearly, if someone doesn't like the map it means they're just playing it wrong or they're bad. God, how could it be so obvious and I just never realized it? /sarcasm Incorrect. Matches with bad players on Ragnarok are what you describe. Matches with good players on Ragnarok end up being frantic, furious paced battles for the Pelican and hill, with vehicle support. You blame the map and claim it is just bad design. Actually, you just fail to be successful and your team mates are just as inexperienced as the enemy you are fighting. And yes, a tactful advance with hardlights will curb any team camping with DMRs, but you need teammates supporting you. There are low laying areas that provide cover to advance to the center. All the options are there. Again. Get your Truskill up and try the map with competent teammates. It changes the dynamic completely. --- They are similar, yes. But like your girlfriend and your sister, someone is gonna be pissed if you mix them up. |

To keep track and find a little focus in this whirlwind, Jeffries works on an online tour diary, which he says he uses to create "something I can look back on like, 'Oh, I remember we ran into this problem and the car broke down, or on the van the tires went crazy and we spent three days in Atlanta.' Little memoir stuff that I can look back on. I feel like I'm losing track of what happened where and when." It's good for the future, he thinks, when you can reflect "and chuckle to yourself and show your kids."
The diary notes quirky and serendipitous stories. The group first played at Ohio University recently. It turned out it was the weekend all the moms visited their daughters. "We ended up playing a show in front of a roomful of people and their moms. We made a joke that we were checking out girls, see them walking down the street, next to themselves in 25 years," Jeffries kids. He was the designated driver that night. After getting in the van, he heard two girls behind him say, "Mom, are you here?" Turns out the van was full of college ladies and their mothers, squashed together with the band. "We ended up at this sorority-esque house with these girls and their moms; we all slept on the couches," he laughs. This is a soon-to-be-written entry.
"The puzzle pieces are slowly coming together," he says humbly of the buildup to the album's release. "All the gifts, they add up," Jeffries says. "All the experiences that you have on the road, the more you play together, the more you play period, the tighter you're going to get and the more aware you're going to be of where you want to be."

Recycling of Plastic :-
The biggest problem with plastic recycling is that it is difficult to automate the sorting of plastic waste, and so it is labor intensive. Typically, workers sort the plastic by looking at the resin identification code, though common containers like soda bottles can be sorted from memory.
Only 3.5 percent of all plastics are recycled in any way. People who use "single stream" curbside recycling would be astonished to know how little of the plastic that goes into their bin is actually recycled. It is estimated that between 500 billion and a trillion plastic bags are consumed worldwide each year. Less than 1 percent of these are recycled as it costs more to recycle a bag than to produce a new one.
Rarely are plastic containers recycled back into what they were as plastic bottles are generally not recycled back into bottles but made into something else such as carpet padding, plastic lumber and outdoor furniture. Shopping bags are not recycled into new shopping bags. The harsh economic reality behind bag recycling is that it costs $4,000 to process and recycle one ton of plastic bags, which can then be sold on the commodities market for $32, according to the Christian Science Monitor.
Recycling of plastic is associated with skin and respiratory problems, resulting from exposure to and inhalation of toxic fumes, especially hydrocarbons and residues released during the process. What is worse, the recycled plastic degrades in quality and necessitates the production of more new plastic to make the original product. Recycling of plastic is very uneconomical, dirty and labour-intensive as has been reveled by a study conducted by the Public Interest Research Group, based in Delhi, India.
Giving an overview of the `recycling status' in India, Mr S. Sugumar of Central Institute of Plastics Engineering & Technology observed that there were around 20,000 recyclers in the country, who recycled about 1,000 tonnes of plastics each day. Plastic waste generation is estimated at around 1.3 million tonnes per annum. Most of the recycling is carried out mechanically.


text: Police: NY man, 86, shoots grandson, girlfriend before taking own lifeBy Ray Sanchez and Morgan Winsor, CNNUpdated 11:17 AM ET, Sun March 30, 2014Story highlightsHeriberto Pagan, 86, shot his grandson and killed his grandson's girlfriend, police say The shooting may have been triggered by housing dispute, a law enforcement source saysPagan fatally shot himself in the head after the double shootingAn apparent dispute over housing ended with an 86-year-old New York man shooting his grandson and killing his grandson's girlfriend before fatally shooting himself, a law enforcement source said Saturday.Police were still trying to sort out what led Heriberto Pagan to drive from his home in Brooklyn to his daughter's Staten Island house Friday and shoot two people before taking his own life. A law enforcement source said investigators were looking into the possibility that the grandson "was trying to take over" the home with his girlfriend and Pagan "wasn't appreciative of the way" his daughter was being treated in the process. It was not clear whether the daughter was at home at the time.Police found Pagan, a gunshot wound to the head, outside his car Friday evening near the home where the shootings occurred. He was hospitalized in critical condition, but died Saturday morning, police said.In the vicinity, police were alerted to another shooting victim, Pagan's 47-year-old grandson, who was critically injured with a gunshot wound to the head and found outside the Staten Island house where he lived with his mother and girlfriend. The grandson has not been identified. Inside the house, police found a second victim, Claritle Christina Huerta, 28, also shot in the head. She was pronounced dead at a local hospital."This is like a nightmare," neighbor John Rina told CNN affiliate WCBS. Police said Pagan shot his grandson as the younger man approached the house. He then shot Huerta inside before driving a few blocks and shooting himself, authorities said. "I just heard a man screaming 'help me, help me,'" a neighbor, not identified, told WCBS. A 4-month-old boy was found unharmed in the home and placed in the care of child welfare authorities, police said."There [were] a lot of problems in that house, I could say, but it never really exploded the way it [did] today," an unidentified neighbor told CNN affiliate NY1 News.

Just the other day, Latifa was crying, and today all the clouds have disappeared. She has taken the bold step. Intellectually she has been thinking and thinking for almost an eternity.because misery lengthens time so long - one hour passes as if it is one life. Hence I say she has been suffering as if for the whole eternity, knowing perfectly well - because I was continuously hammering her - that if you are miserable in a situation and the doors are open, why don't you get out of that situation?
She wants to get out, but clings; she is afraid of the open, is afraid of the fresh air, is afraid of the unknown. Her deeper being feels the pull, the challenge, the excitement of the unknown, but her superficial mind thinks of security, safety. And who knows? - you may fall into a worse condition. At least this misery is well known, and you have somehow become accustomed - in fact, so habituated that a fear somewhere in the corner of your being lurks: are you capable of surviving without it?
It is miserable but at least there is something. You are not alone, and you are not empty; you are full of misery, and you can depend on it that tomorrow also the misery will be there. You need not be worried that tomorrow maybe you will be empty and alone. So one becomes a mess inside.
But finally, Latifa came to her senses, took the bold step. And today she wrote a letter to me of tremendous gratitude, saying that she feels as if a cancer has been removed from her being; she feels clean, healthy, happy, light - the whole burden has disappeared. And this was the cancer she was clinging to.
But you can experience the joy and the freedom and the lightness and the open sky, only when you drop clinging; there is no other way.
But people are such that even when they have come here and they have been listening to me, they are managing what to listen to, what not to listen to. Whatever gives nourishment to their prejudices, they are open to, very happy that their convictions are being supported. The moment I say something that goes against their convictions - and those convictions are their misery, the foundation of their suffering and their hell - immediately they close themselves. But how long can you keep yourself closed? I go on hitting you from every dimension, every direction. Sooner or later you have to listen.
Then too, such is human stupidity that people start defending themselves. I sometimes wonder why you are wasting your time. If you are here to defend yourself, that you can do very well wherever you are. It will be easier to defend yourself somewhere else; here it will be very difficult. I will not allow you to defend yourself, because by defending yourself you are defending all your miseries; they are synonymous. You and your miseries, you and your suffering, you and your ideology - they are not separate.
Your personality is your hell, and I have to hammer it and bring out your individuality, which is a totally different phenomenon - that which you had brought with you when you were born. This personality is a cover that has been put over you by the society; it is a mask. But you have lived with the mask so long that you have started thinking it is your original face. In their sleepiness people go on defending that which is their cancer.

"The Makarov has a completly different type of firing pin design as compared to the German Walther PP, PPK, and PPK/S. The Makarov uses a free floating firing pin design and does "NOT" use a firing pin spring. The German Walther uses a completely different type of firing pin and it utilizes a typical coil firing pin spring. The Makarov has a uniquely triangular shaped firing pin that is totally free floating. If you were to carry your Makarov pistol with a bullet in the chamber, the free floating pin could move about 1/16 of an inch and its limited free travel is so slight there is no way I can ever forsee an accidental discharge with this design.
I have had people call me many times being concerned about this design. I do not see a problem, being as conservative and as cautious as I am, I am not the least bit worried about this firing pin design. I do not see a problem. "
Not sure I agree with all in the article. The firing pin design is known to be a weakness of this pistol, along with the safety, leading to accidental firings. I've learned to take Jacobson with a grain of salt. He know pistols, but tends to confuse opinion for fact. IMHO.
Thanks for sharing though, the exchange of ideas is the key to growing in knowledge.

The title pages names Van Nostrand Reinhold, but provides no date. Hardcover: Decorated Boards. McGuffey's Readers are a delight. I read the books cover to cover and loved every single story contained therein. These two literary tools [the Readers and the BB Speller] were how America learned to read for 150 years. And after wasting 18 months listening to reading "specialists" in public schools, I taught my daughter to read in under 6 weeks. She is now in her sophomore year of college (honor student, too) and is a prolific reader. I highly recommend McGuffey's Readers for any parent who wants to teach their child to read. It is a book you will keep forever, and it is something to be handed down to your children and their children and on and on. And as a prior reviewer stated, they are a real keyhole peak into a bygone time. Plus, the stories are very moral and leave a strong positive impression on young minds.

Law students debate drugs decriminalisation issue
There's nothing like a burning topic to get people talking and at this year's LJMU Student Law Debating competition, in association with the Inner Temple, eight School of Law students debated the pros and cons of decriminalising drugs in the UK. The distinguished QC, Sir David Maddison judged the event and awarded the winning prize to final year LLB Law student Patrick Pereira for his fluid responses to points of information and calm delivery of his argument for decriminalisation. Joanne Boyle, final year LLB Law and Criminal Justice student was awarded the runner's up prize for her natural style of orator and her ability to make a clear case against decriminalisation without an over-reliance on notes. The event, which was held at the Liverpool Guild of Students, was the second annual debate run in conjunction with the Inner Temple, organised by Senior Lecturers in law Dr Alison Lui and Eric Baskind. The student debaters were given the topic 15 minutes before the start of the event and were split into two teams; for decriminalisation of drugs and against. Patrick Pereira, Nozima Rakhimjonova, Renee Southern and Chris-Ann Cope argued for decriminalisation, while Sameeah Zahangir, Seun Odukogbe, Victoria Arogundade and Joanne Boyle argued against decriminalisation. Each side was given seven minutes per deposition to argue three points of legal principle, which would give them limited time to elaborate on each point and respond to requests for points of information from the opposition. During his summing up, Sir David Maddison said: "This is a fascinating topic which provokes a strong argument whenever it's discussed. Each of today's debaters came desperately close to one another and each of the speakers showed ability and remarkable courage given the tight timescales they were given. I hope that this has been a valuable learning experience for those who wish to pursue a future career in advocacy. Liverpool John Moores University and the Inner Temple are to be commended for promoting and supporting this event." Commenting on the event, Dr Alison Lui said: "The finalists found out the motion 15 minutes before the start of the debate and so did very well to stand up and talk so compellingly on the subject for seven minutes. I'd like to congratulate each of the participants on their performance for which they should be very proud. I would also like to express my sincere thanks to the Inner Temple, my colleagues and students who supported this competition." Patrick Pereira commented: "This was a great opportunity to learn and practise various different debating skills, as well as gaining experience in an area of public speaking I was previously unfamiliar with. The competition is a must for anyone wishing to improve their public speaking skills, and to showcase that they can think under pressure and on their feet." Joanne Boyle added: "I applied for the Inner Temple debate to work on my articulation. It gave me the opportunity to develop my confidence and improve my public speaking skills. I was given feedback which allowed me to work on my strengths and weaknesses throughout all of the rounds. Next year, I will definitely come along and watch the debate and I do hope the motion is just as provoking." |

Does anyone know what's going on? I'm getting a little worried... :sad:

A missing man mystery is now a murder case. We first reported on this case over the weekend when Shallotte realtor Adam Bradshaw never returned home from running errands. Last night, Bradshaw's body was found off Watts Road in Brunswick County.
The quiet community of Brierwoood in Shallotte is in shock. Bradshaw's friends and family are making a tearful plea for any information leading to his killer.
"Adam was wonderful," Nancy Bass, Bradshaw's Mother-in-law, said. "He was a wonderful loving father and son in law. In fact we thought of him as a son."
Bass says Adam was very much the family man. His wife Shannon would not go on camera but news of the murder is heart wrenching.
"There's a precious little fellow in there that is going to help keep her moving forward in the days that lie ahead," Bass said.
The Bradshaws had recently moved to Brierwood. Neighbors say Adam was a nice guy; busy decorating and settling in to his family's new home.
"It's just tragedy," neighbor Dick Lavin said. "I mean, my wife and I were talking about it this morning. One day you're married and happy and going at it. The next day you're a survivor."
Investigators found Adam Bradshaw's body along a rural stretch of road in Brunswick County. But exactly who murdered him and how he got here still remains a mystery. Investigators are saying very little about this case. The Shallotte Police Department says it still hasn't established a motive, nor have detectives released the cause of death.
Bradshaw's car is still missing. Police are looking for his 2007 dark blue Ford Mustang with North Carolina plate C21KING. Investigators are hoping the car will lead to more clues as to who killed the local realtor. Bradshaw leaves behind his wife and 14-month-old son Adam Jr.
If anyone has any information regarding this case, they're urged to call the Brunswick County Sheriff's Office at 253-2777.

Lawyers trade openings in Mueller trial; testimony begins
Witnesses describe man's emotional state
BROOMFIELD, Colo. — Cottonwood Creek water levels, evidence collection and the story Frederick Mueller reportedly told law enforcement once again will be scrutinized in the San Angelo businessman's retrial.
Opening arguments began Tuesday morning in the Broomfield Combined Courts. Mueller, backed in court Tuesday by his family and friends, stands accused of murdering his first wife, Leslie Mueller, while the two were vacationing at their Lake City, Colo., resort home in 2008.
Frederick Mueller's first trial, in Gunnison, Colo., ended in a hung jury in February.
Attorneys asked a jury of 10 men and four women to consider the facts in the 5½-year-old homicide investigation and outlined testimony that many of those seated in the gallery had heard before.
Frederick Mueller's initial account of events — that his wife was startled, fell off a rock ledge and was carried away by a stream — prompted local and state investigators to question and later arrest Frederick Mueller.
Leslie Mueller's body was found in the creek about 150 feet away with no apparent injuries and her head "wedged" under a log,
"Like most murders, probably every murder, this one is hard to explain," prosecuting attorney Ryan Brackley said in opening arguments. "It doesn't make sense. We're going to ask you to look at the evidence, put it all together and apply law to reach the verdict."
In her opening arguments, Denver defense attorney Pamela Mackey told jurors what they wouldn't hear from the prosecution — including why Frederick Mueller would kill his wife and how he supposedly went about it.
Mackey described the two as high school sweethearts who dated through college, married and raised three children. She showed jurors a photo of Frederick Mueller taken during that final hike and asked how a loving husband could change to a "homicidal maniac within seconds."
"They bring you a theory," she said of the prosecution. "Their theory is that because Leslie Mueller did not suffer any significant injuries from her fall from the ledge, Fred Mueller must have drowned her.
"That's their case. They won't give you the why, they won't give you the how, they will not bring you proof beyond a reasonable doubt that Fred Mueller drowned his wife."
She said what may become a "battle of the experts" still will not answer those questions.
Mackey pointed out that money wasn't an issue and that business was good — Leslie had no life insurance policy for her husband to collect, and all her assets were placed into trusts for her children.
Mackey also pointed to what she called a failure to collect evidence, including not properly measuring the stream flow and water level where Leslie Mueller purportedly fell and drowned.
In opening statements, Brackley introduced the idea that the Muellers' marriage wasn't perfect, saying testimony will show Frederick Mueller felt his marriage had grown stale.
Brackley said evidence will address scratches on Frederick Mueller's face the day his wife died and how he was able to lead a first responder to an area where his wife was pulled from Cottonwood Creek despite saying he didn't know where she was.
Mackey, however, told jurors they would not hear evidence of defensive wounds on Leslie Mueller's body, nor anything about signs of strangulation or that she had been tied up.
Testimony began after opening statements, focusing on events beginning about 6:30 p.m. May 3, 2008, and continuing through that evening when Leslie Mueller was pronounced dead by the Hinsdale County coroner.
Frederick Mueller's demeanor repeatedly was described by witnesses Tuesday as "flat" or "nonchalant" at times and "frantic" and "speaking in fragmented sentences" at others.
Those who saw Leslie Mueller in the creek or as she was receiving aid described her injuries as minor, with the most noticeable being a "goose egg" on her forehead. Her clothes — a lime green jacket, jeans and sweater — also appeared undamaged.
Roger Sagal, a defense attorney in Frederick Mueller's first trial, and Matthew Durkin, with the prosecution, also are involved in the trial.
For the first of six prosecution witnesses Tuesday, Durkin called Justin Sparks, the Muellers' Lake City neighbor in 2008, to testify about the 911 calls he and his wife made after Frederick Mueller approached their home for aid.
Frederick Mueller told the Sparkses to send help to Cataract Gulch, which Sparks and other witnesses worried about once they learned Frederick Mueller was taking them to a different location.
The trailhead in question leads to two paths — one a foot path for Cataract Gulch and the other a four-wheel-drive path that runs parallel to Cottonwood Creek.
In cross-examination it was made clear the only sign at the trailhead said "Cataract Gulch," not Cottonwood Creek.
After the Sparkses made the 911 call, Justin Sparks went with Frederick Mueller to search for Leslie. Upon realizing they had directed emergency responders to the wrong location, Sparks sent Frederick Mueller back to the trailhead and continued searching for Leslie.
Michael Golob, a physician's assistant who responded to the drowning call, testified that he met Frederick Mueller at the trailhead and headed up the road with him in Frederick Mueller's Jeep. Golob said Frederick Mueller stopped several times along the way to pick up items he had left along the trail, saying "this is it" when they reached three items evenly spaced in the road "like breadcrumbs."
At that point the two got out of the Jeep and headed down the road until they heard Sparks yell, indicating he had found something.
Judge Francis Wasserman, of the 17th Judicial District, is presiding over the two-week trial. He has ruled that laptops in the courtroom may be used only for note-taking purposes. No live coverage of the trial will be available.
Jurors are expected to be back in the courtroom by 8:30 a.m., and court will resume after the judge attends to other business.
Testifying Tuesday for the prosecution
Justin Sparks, the Muellers' Lake City neighbor who called 911 and found Leslie Mueller's body
Jennifer Sparks, wife of Justin Sparks, who called 911
Jack Haynes, Colorado Bureau of Investigation agent and a lead investigator in the case
Michael Golob, physician's assistant who tried to resuscitate Leslie Mueller
Marcia Connell, EMT who responded to the scene along with paramedic and county coroner Jerry Gray
Robert Burden, former Hinsdale County undersheriff who initially investigated the case
Revealed in testimony
Colorado Bureau of Investigation Agent Jack Haynes explained a 50-inch model of Cottonwood Creek, with 1 inch representing 100 feet, that was displayed to jurors. Defense attorneys were allowed to add a small car to represent Frederick Mueller's red Jeep.
Former Hinsdale County Undersheriff Robert Burden will continue with state testimony Wednesday morning. Tuesday afternoon he described finding a red dog leash in the right pocket of Leslie Mueller's lime-green jacket. Frederick Mueller reportedly had told friends Leslie's fall was a result of her getting tangled in the leash when the couple's dog startled her.
Physician's assistant Michael Golob explained in detail the lifesaving measures he and other first responders took to save Leslie Mueller. He testified about dislodging one of her front teeth during resuscitation efforts, but noted he could see no other major injuries.
In cross-examination, Mackey questioned Golob on earlier testimony in which he described Frederick Mueller's jeans as dry from the knees up. Justin Sparks and his wife Jennifer Sparks described his jeans as being wet up to his upper thighs.
EMT Marcia Connell testified about her role in the recovery of Leslie Mueller's body, including how it took 10 to 15 seconds to get down the steep cliff where first responders made their way to the creek. She said Leslie Mueller's body was moved in a gurney-type basket because the area was too narrow for them to lift her otherwise. She explained how ropes were used in the process.

Jun 09, 2012 I think I had Mr Kuska in 8th grade, and I must say, he was one of my favorite teachers. He never once showed favoritism or discrimination. if he saw a learning spark in you, thats all that mattered. I respect him a lot, and being a sophomore in college now, I STILL to this day remember every little thing he made us repeat a million times. Thank you Mr. Kuska for being a very rememberable teacher. Flag Rating
Dec 21, 2010 Mr. Kuska is by far one of the best teachers I've ever had. To those that have put negative comments in here I say school is not about test and CST. Mr. Kuska loves what he does and makes you a thinker a doer, he uses imagination creativity something that has been striped from the school system. He has incorporated lifes lessons through science. He puts himself into his teaching, and i dare say to anyone that has taken his class years from now you will still remember what he taught you Flag Rating
May 15, 2008 One of the worst teachers I've ever had. We spent the first three months of school learning about how to behave in his class, taking meaningless tests and quizzes about respect. When we finally got to science, we learned a 2nd grade level of 8th grade science, full of spelling mistakes and made up ideas from pages he created himself. When the CST's came, we had only covered a third of the material on the test. Worst. Teacher. Ever. Flag Rating
