At this point Mr. McKinley of Ohio entered the chamber with the confer . ence report on the tariff bill under bis arm and was greeted with applause from the Republican side. He submitted the report and it waB ordered printed in the Jlecord, Mr. McKinley then gave notice that to-morrow immediately after the reading of the journal he would Call up the report for consideration, and final disposition. Mr. McMillan of Tennessee trusted that gentleman would not insist upon that. The conferees had not agreed upon the most of the controverted matters un til yesterday evening. Some of them had not been agreed upon until today. The members of the house had never heard or seen the conference report. It could not be properly studied within the time indicated. It was utterly impossible to have a calm and thorough investigation of this important measure within the time mentioned. He hoped that the gentleman from Ohio would allow the report to be taken up Monday instead of tc-morrow. There was no disposition on the part of Democrats to delay consideration, but the bill should be carefully considered. Mr. McKinley said that the bill as it would be printed contained all the changes which had been recommended by the conference committee. Whenever a paragraph had been amended that paragraph would appear in small capital i letters. As to many of the principal fea-A'tureB of the bill tho points of disagreement (' had been perfectly well understood for weeks, and it waB perfectly understood what the conference committee had recommended. It was late in the seB-Bion. The gentleman on both sides were anxious to get home and he must insist upon the consideration of the report after the reading of the journal tomorrow. Mr. McMillin thereupon insisted upon the reading of the conference report. The reading of the report was not completed when the hour of 0 o'clock arrived and the house took a recess, the evening session to be for the consideration of private pension bills. - Before recess Mr. McKinley offered for reference a resolution for the final adjournment of congress on Tuesday next at 2 o'clock.

London, Sept. 27,-The much talked-of fight between Frank Slavin, the Australian champion, and Jos. McAuliffe.the American heavy weight pugilist, took place at the Ormonde club at 5 o'clock this morning. At 3:30 o'clock the men were awakened by their trainers and were thoroughly sponged off and rubbed by their trainers, and each received a Btimulant in the form of an egg flip. At about 5 o'clock the two principal entered the ring followed by their seconds. On the call o! time both men advanced at once to the center of the ring. After short preliminary sparring Slavin led off rather low with his right. This was re-urned by one from McAuliile with the left, which missed Its mark. The American quickly followed it up with a good one from the 16ft, while the right was buBy and in some exchanges which followed, McAuliffo had decidedly the best of it. When they brake away McAuliffe landed a powerful blow on his opponent's chest with his right, but Slavin promptly retaliated, whereupon MuAuliffe came to the ground. The second round ended in another drop for McAuliile, resulting in Slavin being declared the winner. The fight lasted six and three-quarter minutes. McAuliile's face showed marks of severe punishment. After McAullffe came to the ground in the first round there was tremendous cheering in the Australian corner. McAuliile rising, the two got together and McAullffe landed a terrific blow on Blavin's face. Tho American was once in on the face of his man, and twice with the right hit a tremendous blow, and time then being called, McAullffe went off with a decided advantage. In the second round McAauliffe began with a right on Blavin's face, then quickly got away to escape a determined blow by Slavin's right. Around the ring the Australian chased hlB man, who began to cut a sorry figure, and when they got close enough Blavm was twice tho more strenuous in dealing punishment with his right. After they closed the American broke away, having a lot the worst of the deal. In resuming the fight Slavin saw his chance. Availing himself of it very quickly, he went to flniBh his already beaten man and he soon knocked McAullffe down with a clean blow, andfatter waiting for his return, recomtnenoed most vigorously. It was now all over with the American boy, as be only rose to receive terrific punishment and going down again aB soft as possible. Finally his seconds seeing that further perseverance would be worBe than useless intimated that Slavin haft most effectually defeated McAuliffe. The announcement occasioned a scene of the wildest enthusiasm. The fight was for � 1,000 and the Police Gazette championship belt. LOWKUKD THE BKOUBD. Oimtinued on (a�t page.

Fashion photography has evolved over the years from the simplicity of taking pictures of clothes, to the complexity of telling a story through fashion and its setting. It is this evolution that, in a world where anyone can take a high-quality picture of somebody dressed well, made it difficult for just anybody to become a great skilled fashion photographer. There are countless famously talented fashion photographers across the globe, but let us look no further than home.

William Leslie Bowles
|Birth date:
|16 February 1885
|Birth place:
|Australia: New South Wales, Sydney
|Death date:
|21 February 1954
|Death place:
|Australia: Victoria, Melbourne, Frankston
|First World War, 1914-1918
Leslie Bowles was born in Sydney in 1885. He began his studies at the Brisbane Technical College in modelling and woodcarving, and in 1910, won a McConnell scholarship and travelled to London. While in England, he studied at the South London School of Sculpture and the Royal Academy School and became an assistant to Betram MacKennal, another expatriate Australian sculptor working in England.
Bowles enlisted in the 25th London Regiment in 1914, and the same year transferred to the Royal Tank Corps, with whom he served in France until 1919. After the war, he returned to England and resumed his study at the Royal Academy. In 1923, he entered the competition to design a memorial to the Australians and New Zealanders who fought in the Desert Mounted Corps in Port Said, Egypt. Bowles' design was awarded 3rd place in the competition, which was won by Charles Web Gilbert.
On returning to Australia in 1924, Bowles was employed by the Australian War Memorial on the production of dioramas depicting significant events from the First World War. He worked in the modelling section with a team of other artists, including Charles Web Gilbert and Wallace Anderson.
After Gilbert's death in 1925, Bowles became head sculptor of the modelling section at the Memorial, and remained in this position until 1931. His work also included the supervising the repair, and casting in bronze, of figures previously modeled by Gilbert, modelling heads of diverse nationalities for mannequins used to display military uniforms, and designing the gargoyles in the commemorative courtyard. Bowles produced several sculptures for the Memorial, including The man with the donkey, a memorial to Simpson and his donkey. With Napier Waller, Bowles also designed the initial sculptural feature for the Hall of Memory.
He was also often called upon for advice on the commissioning of sculptures and memorials right up until his death in 1954.
Rolls and Awards
Web Gilbert made a number of bronze sculptures depicting Australian soldiers in action on the Western Front. In this work, two of the five-man detachment of an 18-pounder field gun are dead or wounded; the other three continue to operate the gun. Spent shells and a shovel are strewn on the ground.
General Monash
Miniature portrait bust of General Monash. In March 1932, the Australian War Memorial approached Bowles to create a statuette of General Monash and "possibly also Captain Jacka would be popular". Bowles chose to create a miniature bust of Monash that would then be cast in multiples for sale...

When there is a bug or an issue, they fix the bug and issue at no extra cost, they have been fixing bugs that pop up in the module and have never charged me a penny, they also updated the module to the new release for free,
Honestly there is really nothing bad i can say about this company or module as i have never had a bad experience with them.
Special thanks to Ravi the support staff for always solving all my issues with this module and other customizations. (Posted on 2/1/15)

- Works great, Well supported.Review by nick_linn81
With free products out there it's hard to justify a lump of money but putting my faith in WebKul with this product was throughly rewarded with an excellent product and stellar product support.
First the Module,
It's really two modules, one for Magento and the Other for Openerp. Both modules add a custom menu to their respective systems, while documentation was pretty thin (this would have been more of a problem if their support wasn't top tier) the installation was relatively easy and any small problems were resolved quickly and painlessly though support. The module does exactly what it's sold on and does it extremely well, products import and export a the click of a button, sales orders are pushed in real-time. The ability to map out taxes, payment types and products between the systems allows more flexibility and avoids the "My way or the highway" philosophy of other plug ins I have used. These features would have been helped in my case by a CSV import mechanism, I was linking 2 already set up product catalogs and I understand this is unlikely to be typical.
After everything was installed and working we noticed a problem that would cause issues with taxes on orders. We contacted support and within 24 hours we had changes to try. All in all the problems were resolved quickly and without issue. Perhaps best support I have received outside of a 5 figure support contract.
I can highly recommend this product and will definitely buy it again for any future projects within our company. (Posted on 10/12/14)

With excellent support, Many Thankx to Vinay.
He is very patient, he is very experienced, he is a hard working guy. Many Thanks to All of the support team.
They made the best job I ever seen in IT branche.
And I know it very well, I am also an IT professional.
Many other suppliers should be aware - better teams like "Webkul" exist.
So, other suppliers, don't cry - work harder to come closer to the top performance of "Webkul".
Really, I will first have a look to the offers of "Webkul" before buying an extension from other suppliers.
Thank you very much for this High performance product.

Luckily, their tech support will help you see the installation and configuration all the way through. It might take a while since they are in India, and they averaged one reply a day while I installed it over the weekend. Not bad.
Overall, the software works great and Magento and OpenERP stay effortlessly synched. Until camp2camp comes out with a free module for OpenERP7 and Magento 184.108.40.206, this is the most affordable connector option on the market. Great job! (Posted on 9/8/14)

If, like me, you're using this module at the beginning of your experience with OpenERP, I'd advise spending some time experimenting with the system before diving in. Depending on the number of products you have and whether or not you do manufacturing, the process to get OpenERP fully configured is a long one... I'm nearing the end of the tunnel now, though, and I can say that it's a wonderful system that will really improve the overall efficiency of our organization.
I would definitely recommend this extension, primarily for the quick and friendly support of the developers. Why waste your time struggling with one of the other under-developed extensions when you can have a team of engineers supporting you through the installation of this one? Yes, its initial price tag is higher than some of the other connectors, but for the support alone it is worth every penny. (Posted on 9/8/14)

- phenotype
Fabry disease is an X-linked recessive disorder caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal enzyme α-galactosidase A, which results in a progressive multisystem disease. Most families have private mutations and no general correlation between genotype and disease manifestations has been described to date. Forty-nine patients (47 males and 2 females) from 36 affected families were selected for the study. Their evaluation included clinical examination, identification of α-galactosidase A gene mutations and residual enzymatic activity. For mutation detection, each exon with flanking intronic sequences was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from the patient's genomic DNA and sequenced. Analysis of the resulting sequences was conducted to identify structural defects in the gene. Each of the Fabry patients carried a mutation in the α-galactosidase A gene. Fifteen mutations were novel. They included missense mutations (M51K, Y123M, G261D), nonsense point mutations (E251X) and small insertions or deletions creating a premature translational termination signal (P6X, D93X, W162X, K240X, H302X, I303X, L403X, S345X, G375X, F396X). Residual α-galactosidase A activity was significantly lower in patients with neuropathic pain (p=0.01) and in patients with mutations leading to a nonconservative amino acid change (p=0.04). Our findings emphasize the wide variety of genetic mechanisms leading to Fabry disease. A significant genotype–phenotype relationship was found.

There are troubling indications that Keith Hall lets ideology blind him to basic economics.
Last week, in a post about the employment effect of regulations, I mentioned briefly that the new Director of the Congressional Budget Office, Keith Hall, had endorsed some questionable views on the subject. A reader pointed me toward an additional writing that has done a lot to escalate my concerns. There are disturbing signs about both Hall's ideological bias and even his grasp of basic economics.Full text
The Republicans' choice for head of the CBO, Keith Hall, spent some time at a libertarian think tank reportedly funded by the Koch brothers, where he wrote about the effect of regulation on employment. Hall argued that regulations cause unemployment (include indirect effects because of price changes), and that the costs of unemployment should be included in regulatory cost-benefit analysis.
In principle, it seems right to include the special harms associated with job loss in cost-benefit analysis (not just for regulations but everything else too). There's all kinds of evidence that being fired or laid off is very damaging to people, and that's a genuine cost — assuming that we can reliably quantify the effect. As Hall has said:
"The immediate impact of job loss includes lost wages, job search costs, and retraining costs. Further, research shows that even after reemployment it can take as long as 20 years for workers to catch up on lost earnings, largely due to skill mismatches between the jobs lost and the new jobs created in the economy. These losses occur at different lengths of job tenure, in all major industries, and with workers of any age."
As I said, this seems right in principle. But there are some important caveats.Full text
Black lung has been the underlying or contributing cause of death for more than 75,000 coal miners since 1968, according to NIOSH, the federal agency responsible for conducting research on work-related diseases and injuries. Since 1970, the Department of Labor has paid over $44 billion in benefits to miners totally disabled by respiratory diseases (or their survivors). The annual death rate from mining accidents is 20-25 per 100,000, about six times the average industry. If you do the math, that means comes out to about six deaths per thousand workers over the course of a thirty-year career as a miner. This is actually an underestimate because the government figures include office workers employed in the industry.
Miners aren't the only victims. There's also air pollution. Even with the pollution controls in place in developed countries, coal remains deadly. According to a 2011 report of the American lung association, particulate pollution from coal-fired power plants causes about thirteen thousand deaths per year. Indeed, according to the report: "Coal-fired power plants that sell electricity to the grid produce more hazardous air pollution in the U.S. than any other industrial pollution sources."
Of course, things would be much worse if it weren't for EPA. Just look at China, which has done very little to control pollution from power plants. According to a recent study:
Air pollution causes people in northern China to live an average of 5.5 years shorter than their southern counterparts. . . .
High levels of air pollution in northern China – much of it caused by an over-reliance on burning coal for heat – will cause 500 million people to lose an aggregate 2.5 billion years from their lives, the authors predict in the study, published in the journal the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
To put it in as few words as possible: coal kills.Full text
Yesterday, the Supreme Court granted cert. in several cases to hear the following question:
"Whether the Environmental Protection Agency unreasonably refused to consider costs in determining whether it is appropriate to regulate hazardous air pollutants emitted by electric utilities."
The fundamental issue is whether it was unreasonable for EPA to interpret section 112 to preclude consideration of cost at this particular stage of the regulatory process — not only different from what the Court thinks is the best interpretation, but a position that no reasonable person could take. The Supreme Court and lower courts have rarely found agency interpretations unreasonable in cases where the statute was ambiguous. This is called the Chevron Step 2 analysis, while deciding whether the statute is ambiguous is called Chevron Step 1. The rationales for the Chevron doctrine are that Congress meant agencies to work out statutory ambiguities and that it is better for politically accountable members of the executive branch to do that, as opposed to federal judges with lifetime appointments.

Ebola's natural reservoirs are animals, if only because human hosts die to too quickly. Outbreaks tend to occur in locations where changes in landscapes have brought animals and humans into closer contact. Thus, there is considerable speculation about whether ecological factors might be related to the current outbreak. (See here). At this point, at least, we don't really know. Still, it's clear that outbreaks of diseases like ebola strengthen the case for forest conservation. Which is also, obviously good for the environment. But that's not what I want to focus on here.Full text
A Texas judge's award of attorney fees is a threat to all public interest groups, liberal or conservative.

Sierra Club had survived motions to dismiss and for summary judgment, only to lose at trial. The court awarded fees on the ground that the suit was frivolous. The combination of rulings — denying summary judgment but then calling a lawsuit frivolous — is virtually unheard of, at least in the absence of perjury by a witness or document tampering. It's hard to account for this peculiar ruling unless the judge was just cranky due to the summer heat in Waco.Full text
FDA has stalled for 30 years in regulating antibiotics in animal feed. A court says that's O.K.
The FDA seems to be convinced that current use of antibiotics in animal feed is a threat to human health. But the Second Circuit ruled recently in NRDC v. FDA that EPA has no duty to consider banning their use. That may seem ridiculous, but actually it's a very close case legally. The court's discussion of Massachusetts v. EPA as an administrative law precedent should be especially interesting to environmental lawyers.Full text
Direct implications are limited, but we'll be reading the tea leaves for future implications.
Scholars, lawyers, and judges will be spending a lot of time dissecting today's ruling. Overall, it's a bit like yesterday's World Cup game — EPA didn't win outright but it didn't lose either.
Here are three key questions with some initial thoughts:Full text
OIRA should conduct a cost-benefit analysis of its own activities and explore alternatives to its current oversight methods.
A White House office called OIRA polices regulations by other agencies in the executive branch. OIRA basically performs the role of a traditional regulator – it issues regulations that bind other agencies, and agencies need OIRA approval before they can issue their own regulations. Essentially, then OIRA regulates agencies like EPA the same way that those agencies regulate industry. Issuing regulatory mandates and permits is a very traditional form of regulation, often called command and control.
There are a number of well-known criticisms of command-and-control regulation for being "one size fits all," too rigid, unable to take advantage of information held by the regulated entities, and economically inefficient. One might predict that OIRA's own regulations would suffer from similar flaws. To the extent that OIRA is trying to overcome these problems in other agencies, it might do well to reexamine its own activities applying the same standards.
OIRA pushes agencies toward greater consideration of the costs of their mandates and toward consideration of alternatives to command and control. But maybe OIRA should turn some of its scrutiny inward to see how well it lives up to its own goals in its activities.Full text
Megan Herzog has done a great job of explaining the background of the rules and summarizing the proposal in her blog posts. I just wanted to add a quick note about how EPA has structured its rules in light of possible legal challenges. The fundamental issue facing EPA is how to define the "best system" for reducing carbon emissions. Is it limited to technological upgrades at individual emitters? Or can it be broader, and if so, how broad? Industry is sure to argue that EPA can only set standards for individual plants that emit carbon, nothing more.Full text

Lion weeds out of control
Last year I really tried to dig out as much of the lions as possible. It seemed a task that just never ended.
This year things are just out of control. If I did not see it I wouldn't believe it. I will cut the grass, and within 24-HOURS the lions have already grown 12 inches! Not just that, but the seeds have turned from yellow to white over-night ontop of this.
How is this even possible? I never saw such a thing growing up in the country. At this point, it is hopeless trying to de-weed since you can't even stop them from sprouting.
What is lion weed? Do you mean dandelions?
The solution for dandelions is proper lawn maintenance.
What kind of grass do you have?
Where do you live? Need a town preferably.
How are you watering (how long and how often)?
How high/low do you mow?
How often do you fertilize and with what?

265,000-plus tuned in at time of capture
By Tim Peterson – AdWeek
Aside from NBC's Pete Williams and local Boston news station WCVB, TV news outlets infamously fumbled in reporting the manhunt following last week's Boston Marathon bombing. That led a lot of people to sidestep the news middlemen and tune into police scanners feeds streaming online, such as through livestreaming video platform Ustream.
Starting Thursday night—after the FBI released images of the bombing suspects—through Friday evening, when the lone living suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was captured, more than 2.4 million people followed the manhunt on Ustream, including more than 265,000 people who simultaneously listened to a single police scanner feed in the minutes leading up to and after Tsarnaev's arrest.
Ustream CEO Brad Hunstable referred an interview request to director of communications Joellen Ferrer, who provided information on the platform's Boston-related traffic and described the Friday afternoon audience as "by far the most engagement we've ever seen for something of this nature."
