Malad Accident Backs Up I-15
(MALAD CITY, ID) – A Friday afternoon collision closed I-15 near Malad Pass. Two semi-trucks were involved in the crash – one of which was hauling a propane tank. Highway officials say no one was injured in the accident, though traffic had to be diverted near the Downey and Malad exits.

405 Focus: Cave Painting [Video Interview]
Cave paintings are an historical phenomenon that date back as far as 33,000 years BC. Cave Painting ― that is, the band ― have been around in their current form for a little over a year, yet are already leaving a definable mark on the Brighton music scene.
Last November, a few short months after their formation, the band released their debut EP. You'll Be Running Soon showcases their quiet, considered, but ably funky and immediate indie-pop sound, revealing them to be akin to a Wild Beasts you could take home to your parents. They spoke a little more in-depth with us about the origins of the band, and recording the EP.
You can watch the interview below, or via our TV Section. It's also available via our Vimeo and Youtube pages.
If you fancy listening to the session without the visuals, you can do so here:
The interview was recorded/edited by George and Louise Nindi.

While in Berlin in November, I spotted several boutiques that had a similar approach as Frau Zimmer and Formenreich – artists coming together that have a similar aesthetic and opening a store. One that stood out is Derby Store, a graphic design shop that features screen-printed tee shirts and accessories from some of Europe's best graphics designers.
It was at the Derby Store that I met Mike Friedrich, and the designer behind Bloody Bunny, Britta, both artists that design and sell out of Derby Store. Both were excited and pleased to be working together, along with other creative types, and mentioned that in Berlin, this was becoming more and more popular. On one wall, I spotted Mike's artwork along with his skateboard art, and in the window, was Bloody Bunny's crochet and textile accessories. Mike was working the desk and Britta stopped in primarily to meet me and show me her wares since we linked up online via Flickr before I visited Berlin. I'll be back to visit her in September, a trip I'm very excited about because I think she is a lovely person in all ways – she's authentic, like all the artists I met in Berlin and Hannover. Their passion for what they created gave them the drive to make it work no matter what.
Both Mike and Britta bubbled over with enthusiasm and the prospects that await them. Through the store, as well as online (Britta has a small etsy store, a blog, and is on flickr and Mike has several websites, including a blog), both are able to make a living doing what they love.
That's another way to make your storefront work, bring your store online by using the websites that are in place already to offer your products and services. Flickr alone can be an amazing way to connect to others, and of course sites like Etsy and eBay, as well as adding e-commerce to your own website. On days when your store is slow, you can still keep busy by networking online and running your business on the web. You are also able to reach out to a broader customer base.
From my own personal experience as an eBay shop girl for several years while I worked in the corporate world (interestingly enough, it was a business selling home decor), I can't stress this enough: go international. Often, your best customers live in another country. People want what they can't find next door, I know I do, so make sure your doors are open to everyone. You can increase your business up to 50% in some cases!
Sharing space and taking your business online, in addition to a storefront, is becoming more and more popular because the dream of sole shop ownership is quickly slipping down the tubes. Passionate business owners are thinking of alternative ways to keep their dreams (and their stores) alive. Many indie shop owners left behind a world where they felt out of control, which is why they elected to go solo and open their own business in the first place. We leave behind fat paychecks and bennies to gain our freedom. But, how much freedom do you have if you're forced to go in with several others to create your business? I imagine giving up the control you longed to have is a difficult thing to do, so I applaud those who do it, and find success this way.
It almost comes down to survival of the fittest these days, doesn't it? Are there any decor8 readers that own/rent a storefront, and if so, how hard are you finding it is to survive? Would you consider taking on partners, or leasing spaces in your store to independant artists? What are the challenges you're faced with on a daily basis?
I'd love to learn more about this so I'm inviting you to comment with your thoughts below with hopes that we can open up a discussion. You can comment by visiting the first part this series by clicking here. It seems that's where the discussion is going on…
Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams released a new book, Let's Get Comfortable, packed with practical advice for creating a well-designed home, including loads of layouts so you can flex some muscle and rearrange your furniture to maximize your space. Although I'm not big on their overall decorating aesthetic because I tend to like things a bit more playful and less grown up, I do love a lot of their furniture to mix in my eccletic home. MG + BW furniture is classic and known for its exceptional quality, so most pieces fit in with a myriad of styles.
To celebrate their new book, you are invited to an evening reception and book signing to meet Gold & Williams, on Thursday, March 15th, from 7-9 p.m. in their Boston showroom located at 142 Berkeley Street. If you're like to attend, please R.S.V.P. by calling 617.266.0075.
If you cannot make the Thursday event, you can attend their second area event on Saturday, March 17th from 1-3 p.m. in their new Natick showroom on Route 9 at 395 Worcester Street in Natick. Please R.S.V.P. for that event by phone or email at rsvpnatick {at} mgandbw {dot} com or 508.650.1400.

While we're on the subject, I'm feeling a Spring purchase coming on. Every March, as far back as I can remember, I get the urge to freshen my space with something new. I'm thinking of a nice table or a real splurge, a new sofa, this year. Hmmm. I love the Baxter and the Dexter, I wish they had one cushion along the bottom vs. two. I cannot handle cushions on the sofa. Throw pillows, yes, but back and bottom cushions, no. I love the tufted back sofas and the single cushion along the bottom – hard to come by – but I absolutely love those.
As for fabric, a grey or beige tweed would be perfect, that way I can freely mix and match pillows and throws to change the mood. I think that when you invest in a piece of furniture, you should keep in mind that your style changes throughout the years. If you invest $2,000- or more in a sofa, you want to ensure that it's something you can live with for awhile. Plus, you don't want a pattern that fits a current trend, only to look dated in a year or two. My advice: stick to a solid neutral. You really can't go wrong.

Ah… Saltwater. Refreshingly chic. Not to drink, but to wear. And what a cute storefront in giddy London. I love the painted brick walls, hardwood floors, and those windows… Sometimes I wonder if my second calling is commercial space design. I'd love to work on a fashion or home store design project someday. Just once. It seems so easy, although I'm certain it's not because so much has to be taken into consideration that goes far beyond mere styling. Building codes and the fact that it's a public space alone is a planning nightmare. But still. In fact, forget the whole store idea, I'd take a window display, wouldn't it be fun to do a window for your favorite store? I wish more retailers would have contests for local students and designers that awarded them with the prize of designing a window. What fun! I digress… Back to Saltwater!
I love mixing and matching, but imagine hosting a party and wearing a dress that matches the tray that matches the pillows that matches the… Oh, nevermind. I love the new fashions out for Spring at Saltwater in England, and the fact that you can really serve up your fashion, on a tray, only adds to the appeal for me. Fun!
Lillibule Ceramics is one to watch. Designed by the talented Sylvie Fuller, this limited run, hand screen-printed tableware in white bone china is attracting a lot of press lately. And for good reason. Her current collection features a swirly dragonfly motif and can be called feminine, fun, charming…Yet practical and oh so stylish. Sylvie also offers bespoke ceramics, textile design, and hand-painted wall murals. And for you UK shoppers, free shipping for a limited time, visit her online for details.

Talk:Critique of the Kantian philosophy
|Skip to table of contents

|(Rated C-class, Low-importance)
Destructive or Constructive?[edit]
The list of Kant's merits is short, as compared with the list of defects. However, Schopenhauer believed that the merits were extremely valuable. The defects were important, but did not cancel the value of the merits.
Wittgenstein and Tolstoy learned their Kant by reading Schopenhauer's criticism.
When Kant positioned the faculty or power of judgment between understanding and reason (Critique of Judgment), it recalled his positioning of schemata between time and understanding (Critique of Pure Reason).
Separate Provinces of Nature[edit]
Schopenhauer's position about the total separateness of the different provinces of nature does not seem to be in accord with modern science. Contemporary scientists seek to unify the separate branches of science.
It almost seems that Kant's overriding interest was with showing that subjective knowledge cannot be assumed to be objective knowledge.
I've removed the top-level category here, and replaced it with category:Philosophical arguments. Someone with more experience in this area might wish to consider what other cats the article should involve. Banno 03:19, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi according to me there is an error in this article
- Concepts of Reason (Ideas of God, Freedom, and Immortality).
I, reading my school book (written by existentialist philosopher Nicola Abbagnano) learned that according to Kant the concepts of the reason are the ideas of God (rational theology), World (rational cosmology) and Soul (rational psycology), not Freedom and Immortality. --184.108.40.206 (talk) 10:04, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
- The Cosmological Idea results from the application of reason to the world that we know through our senses. We think about the series of connections to the point where our thoughts go beyond all possible experience. As we reason, we continually and repeatedly ask "Why?" or "What is the reason?". There are four parts to this Idea: (1) the infinity of space and time, (2) atoms, or indivisible simple elements, (3) free will, or effects without causes, and (4) an absolutely necessary cause. In the case of freedom, we suppose that an effect can be produced that is not determined, conditioned, or caused by any previous influence. This Cosmological Idea is sometimes thought of as simply the transcendental idea of freedom in the world.
- The Psychological Idea is the Ego, Apperception, I, Self, or Soul. It results from thinking that there must be an underlying substance that is the basis or ground of all of our thinking. Our thoughts are always changing but the thinking substance is assumed to be permanent. As a result, the Psychological Idea is sometimes thought of as simply the transcendental idea of the immortality of the soul.Lestrade (talk) 16:17, 16 June 2008 (UTC)Lestrade
suggestion for article[edit]
Needs an "In popular culture" section —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 05:26, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
Article title[edit]
Why "Schopenhauer's criticism of the Kantian philosophy"? Would "Schopenhauer's criticism of Kantian philosophy" be better? Or maybe "Schopenhauer's criticism of Immanuel Kant"? The current title sounds odd. Srnec (talk) 04:02, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
The title sounds odd to Srnec, but it didn't sound odd to Richard Haldane and John Kemp when they published their translation in 1891 of Schopenhauer's "Kritik der Kantischen Philosophie." Lt. Col. E. F. J. Payne didn't find it odd when he published his translation in 1958. So we have a scale that balances Srnec on one side and Haldane, Kemp, and Payne on the other side. Unfortunately, the three English gentlemen who published their translations are deceased. Srnec has the advantage of being alive. Therefore, Srnec is a Wikipedia Winner and that is how the game is played.Lestrade (talk) 20:02, 21 February 2010 (UTC)Lestrade
- Let's ask the man himself. In his letter to Francis Haywood on December 21, 1829, Schopenhauer wrote: "…I grafted onto his [Kant's] my own system which appeared 1819, bearing the title 'Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung' — to this belongs a long appendix containing 'Critic of the Kantian philosophy' …." This was written in Schopenhauer's own English, not in German.Lestrade (talk) 19:58, 12 March 2010 (UTC)Lestrade
- I see that Srnec has moved it as he thought correct. If you move it back, as I understand your reasoning I think it should be Criticism not criticism, perhaps even Critic as we are not merely referring to Shopenhauer's act of criticizing Kant's philosophy, but specifically to his appendix called Critic of the Kantian philosophy. Perhaps simply Critic of the Kantian Philosophy would be even better I think. I am not being bold with the move to Crcitic of the Kantian Philosophy as it seems like something many people may object to. Wwmargera (talk) 11:22, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
- I vote that it stays as it is now (critic of the) 188.8.131.52 (talk) 15:31, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
The German word "Kritik" means, in English, "criticism" or "critique." The German word "Kritiker" means, in English, "critic." In English, the title of Schopenhauer's work is "Criticism of the Kantian Philosophy." It is ignorant, stubborn, and contrary to insist that the title should be "Critic of the Kantian philosophy" instead of "Criticism of the Kantian philosophy." The current title, however, is perfectly consistent and in accord with Wikipedia standards, which are at the level of a fourteen year–old who has never read a book by Schopenhauer, or, probably, any other origin work by a philosopher. The article was well–intended but is really useless and a waste of space because the people who would benefit will never read it or know that it exists. The best thing that could happen is that it should be subjected to continuous and gradual vandalism, preferably by teenagers in a North American high school, until it reaches the point of being complete gibberish.Lestrade (talk) 20:03, 5 May 2010 (UTC)Lestrade
Since this article exists only in English it's worth reading and it's a good thing that some people took the oain to write it. [[User talk:Flocon]talk]] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 12:36, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
- There have been many critiques of Kant's philosophy. In the first few decades, there were critiques or criticisms by empricists, rationalists, and idealists. Since then, there have been a great number of criticisms. This article, however, is supposed to reference only one criticism. It is the criticism that Schopenhauer attached as an appendix to the first volume of his major work. The title of this article should reflect this specific reference. When the article was first created, its title was Criticism of the Kantian philosophy (Schopenhauer). This original title follows the title as printed in Payne's English translation and also indicates that Schopenhauer was the author, not Garve, Jacobi, Reinhold, Schulze, Maimon, Strawson, Ayer, Lewis, Nietzsche, Peirce or any of the other many writers who critiqued Kant's philosophy.Lestrade (talk) 02:25, 29 December 2010 (UTC)Lestrade
I find this article perhaps dubious, though not especially for its content, as far as that goes..[edit]
As a reader of both Kant and Schopenhauer, I came across this article which is, I note, entirely devoted to Schopenhauer's criticisms of Kant. I think if it were straightforwardly titled 'Schopenhauer's criticisms of Kant', it might seem a bit esoteric for Wiki, but that's really all that is going on, here. Every major philosopher since Kant, and this is probably utterly without exception, has his criticisms of Kant. I don't think that Schopenhauer's particular criticisms have been massively influential. In the end, Schopenhauer counts himself as a Kantian, so in the larger landscape, his criticisms are going to look like quibbles, this is for example, I think, true of mainstream Anglo-American Analytic philosophy. Frege and Russell, foundational figures here, both had their criticisms of Kant, but that's quite a different discussion.
Also, even if we insist on a Wiki article detailing Schopenhauer's criticisms of Kant, there's more of Schopenhauer's criticisms of Kant. Such as, his view of the Kantian antimonies, Schopenhauer took these to be sophistry, he rejected all four of them, in a similar fashion, by embracing the antithesis, and rejecting the thesis. Kant's antimonies have attracted a fair amount of attention, and Schopenhauer's view is a minority view indeed, even among those who reject Kant's antimonies. The Wiki article on Kant's antimonies doesn't even mention Shopenhauer, which I can understand. One can always discuss Schopenhauer under 'Schopenhauer'.
Now, I find Schopenhauer interesting. I'm just quite confident, that the only relevance that this article can have, at least currently, will be for those who find Schopenhauer interesting. And even if they do, there's little effort to reply on Kant's behalf, to these criticisms. The article could be developed further in this direction, though again, I'm not sure if just any- and everything, such as this, falls under wikipedia's scope. I guess it can't hurt, but the article's title is still misleading.

- Taking "dubious" to mean "causing doubt and uncertainty," what is it about the article that raises doubt and uncertainty in your mind? You are absolutely correct about the article's title. The article is supposed to be specifically about Schopenhauer's criticism of the Kantian philosophy, published as an appendix to Schopenhauer's main work. It is not supposed to be an article about other people's criticism of Kant's works. Please note my statement, shown above, dated 29 December 2010. At one time, briefly, the title was "Schopenhauer's criticism of the Kantian philosophy," but Schopenhauer's name was quickly omitted. By the way, Schopenhauer's criticism of Kant's antinomies is included in the "Ideas of reason" section.Lestrade (talk) 17:06, 10 February 2014 (UTC)Lestrade
- Indeed, the issue of the antimonies is mentioned here, which I had neglected. Actually, I rather like my summary, though --Schopenhauer rejected all of them as antimonies, always because he rejected the thesis, while embracing the antithesis. Currently the article mentions this and that antimomy, without giving this big picture. DanLanglois (talk) 13:35, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY CONCORD NAVAL WEAPONS STATION CONCORD, CALIFORNIA and LOCAL 1931, AMERICAN FEDERATION OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, AFL-CIO
and Case No. 91 FSIP 60
Local 1931, American Federation of Government Employees, AFL-CIO (Union) filed a request with the Federal Service Impasses Panel (Panel) to consider a negotiation impasse under section 7119(b)(1) of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute (Statute) between it and the Department of the Navy, Concord Naval Weapons Station, Concord, California (Employer). The Panel initially recommended to the parties, pursuant to section 2471.6(a)(2) of its regulations, that the dispute be referred to the undersigned for mediation-arbitration via a telephone conference call. After receiving the parties' responses to its recommendation, the Panel, pursuant to section 2471.11(a) of its regulations, directed such proceeding whereby I was vested with authority to mediate with respect to all outstanding issues, and render a decision should any remain unresolved.
The proceeding was held on July 2, 3, and 11, 1991. During mediation the parties were able to reach an agreement on three out of the four issues in dispute. Thereafter, they were given the opportunity to present their respective positions on the remaining issue concerning inspections in full. Post-hearing briefs were filed, and I have now considered the entire record.
The Employer's mission is to supply weapons and ammunition to naval vessels. The Union represents approximately 1,000 General Schedule and Wage Grade employees in three separate bargaining units, in a variety of clerical, technical, administrative, and skilled and unskilled trades positions. The parties' current collective bargaining agreement, which covers all three bargaining units, was originally implemented on June 4, 1987. It was extended by mutual agreement on June 4, 1990, and is now due to expire on June 4, 1993. The current impasse arose out of negotiations over Employer-initiated revisions to its Physical Security Manual. The
Union first received notification of the Employer's desire to issue a new Physical Security Manual on April 14, 1989.
The issue at impasse basically concerns whether the current practice of providing the Union with notice and an opportunity to be present prior to vehicle and worksite inspections, and personal property searches conducted by the Employer, should continue. .
1. The Union
The Union proposes that the following provision, contained in a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) covering "Physical Security Search and Seizure," executed by the parties on July 22, 1985, be retained:
The Employer will notify the Union and afford the Union an opportunity to be present prior to conducting vehicle inspections, worksite inspections, and personal property searches. Unit employees will be advised of their rights and will be afforded an opportunity for themselves and their representative to be present prior to their personal property being searched.
As a threshold matter, the Union contends that because the MOA is part of the parties' current collective bargaining agreement, "there exists [a] [c]ontract bar from amending or terminating the [MOA] during the life of the contract" (emphasis in original). In this regard, the Union submits three affidavits from individuals who were members of the Union's bargaining team in 1985 when both the MOA and the parties' current collective bargaining agreement were being negotiated. Their sworn statements confirm that at that time the Union submitted proposals on search and seizure during the
negotiations over the collective bargaining agreement. The Employer instead suggested that the parties address the Union's proposals in
connection with changes it wanted to make in the Physical Security
Manual, and that the Union agree to the MOA "which would become a part of the [c]ontract." and would be in effect during the life of the [c]ontract." This permitted the Employer to implement the Physical Security Manual without having to wait for the completion of contract negotiations that eventually were to last for approximately 5 years. The MOA, therefore, was negotiated as part of the collective bargaining agreement, and expires at the same time, i.e., June 4, 1993. Moreover, in the arbitration hearing before the undersigned, the Employer "admitted" that it "could not deny the Union's allegation that the Memorandum of Agreement is a part of the [c]ontract."
On its merits, the provision requires only that the Union be given prior notification and an opportunity to be present when the Employer is conducting a planned search or inspection, and does not prevent the Employer from continuing the search once such notification properly has been provided. -In practice, the Employer notifies the Union by telephone 2 hours in advance of the planned search or inspection. The practice "has worked very well in the past" because "it allows the Union an opportunity to have a representative available, and saves the Employer time and money by not having to wait to get a representative released from [his other] regular duties." In this regard, the parties' collective bargaining agreement mandates that a Union representative be present prior to conducting interviews with employees that could lead to disciplinary actions. In such circumstances, retention of the provision "would prevent unnecessary delays for both the
Employer and the Union" because the Employer could continue with the search and inspection, and "the Union could provide representation for the employee in an interview."
2. The Employer
The Employer's position is that the Union's proposal be withdrawn. With respect to the Union's contention that there is a contract bar to the negotiations, the argument "seems specious at this point."The parties have been attempting to negotiate the Physical
Security Manual "for almost 2 years." The Union "has submitted proposals and even requested the services of both" the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) and the Panel. To "raise the [contract-bar] issue . . . in this forum is ludicrous."
On the merits of the issue, the provision contained in the parties' previous MOA "serves no useful purpose." On the contrary, "it creates an administrative headache for management and functions as a deterrent to the physical security and well being of the base and its people." Giving the Union advance notice and an opportunity to be present "eliminates the clement of surprise" that makes random gate inspections of vehicles entering or leaving the base effective. Such inspections are one of the best means available for: (1) turning up contraband and stolen Government property; (2) revealing attempts to bring weapons on base; and (3) detecting illegal drugs. Moreover, "the very fact that such inspections occur without warning serves as a deterrent itself." Moreover, there are
adequate safeguards for bargaining-unit employees which make it unnecessary for the Union to know ahead of time when inspections will take place. In this regard, bargaining-unit employees are guaranteed their Miranda and Weingarten rights, where applicable, as well as the protections of the parties' collective bargaining agreement, which "goes beyond the letter of Weingarten by requiring the Employer" to advise employees of their rights to Union representation before an interview which may lead to formal disciplinary action.
The security personnel conducting random searches on behalf of the Employer generally "do not have the authority to propose or effect disciplinary action against bargaining-unit employees," or the skills and sophistication to deal with the possible "influence/interference" of the Union's experienced representatives. In addition, with regard to random searches, the Union has "no legitimate right to observe the searches of vehicles" belonging to individuals who are not members of the bargaining unit "who constitute the majority of people entering or exiting the base on a 24-hour basis." Finally, the second sentence of the Union's proposal "is totally inconsistent" with a provision in the current collective bargaining agreement concerning Employer inspections
of employees' lockers and tool boxes, and "is also unclear on its face as to what rights the Employer must notify the employee [of]."
Turning first to the contract-bar argument presented by the Union, I conclude that it provides no basis for preventing a decision on the merits of the dispute. In this regard, the record indicates that since April 14, 1989, when the Union initially received notification that the Employer proposed to make changes in its Physical Security Manual, the parties have had numerous bilateral negotiations on the matter, three of which included the assistance of an FMCS mediator. On October 30, 1990, the Union requested the Panel's assistance to resolve the impasse which resulted from those negotiations. At no time prior to the request for assistance, or during the Panel's preliminary investigation of the request, wherein its designated representative makes a recommendation as to whether there are any jurisdictional issues raised by the parties which might prevent the Panel from asserting jurisdiction over a dispute, did the Union raise the contract-bar argument. Indeed, the argument apparently was raised for the first time before the undersigned during the mediation portion of the mediation-arbitration process, and only after agreement had been reached on all of the other issues in dispute. The record also reveals that since April 14, 1989, the Union has formulated at least three different proposals concerning the remaining issue at impasse.
These facts support the conclusion that the Union constructively waived its

text: Turkish warplane has been shot down by Syria (UPDATE) Middle East Middle East Turkey Luke Browne on Dec 31, 1969 @ 7:33 PM Turkish jets parade during the Victory Day celebrations, in Ankara on August 30, 2011. An F-4 Phantom jet went missing on June 22, 2012 over the Mediterranean Sea near Turkey's border with Syria. It is unclear whether it crashed or was shot down. Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan told reporters on Friday that Syria had shot down a warplane that was flying over the region, Reuters reported. The warplane went missing near Syria early Friday was brought down by Syrian forces, Erdogan said in a statement following a two-hour security meeting, CBS News reported. The statement also said that Turkey "will determinedly take necessary steps" in response, without specifying what those would be. The Turkish military aircraft disappeared over the eastern Mediterranean close to the border with Syria, and the plane's two Turkish pilots remain missing, according to CBS News. Turkish and Syrian coast guard ships are currently searching for the crew, according to BBC News. When asked about whether the incident would create a crisis between Turkey and Syria, Erdogan said, "We will see," according to The Financial Times. In a statement, the military said it had lost radio and radar contact with the plane after it took off from an airbase in the province of Malatya on Friday morning, according to Reuters. Malayta governor Ulvi Saran told Turkey's state-run Anatolia news agency that two pilots were onboard the F-4 jet, Reuters reported. Hurriyet newspaper, as cited by the Associated Press, reported that the plane crashed into international waters off the Syrian coast. But witnesses in Syria's northern town of Latakia told the BBC that Syrian air defenses had shot at and brought down an unidentified plane near the town of Ras al-Baseet. The BBC also said Erdogan was quoted as saying, "The other side have expressed regret," making it unclear whether Syria had accepted responsibility for the crash. Tensions between the countries have escalated during the 15-month uprising against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, with Turkey hosting 32,000 Syrian refugees and allowing the Syrian Free Army to operate from its territory, said Reuters. A military search and rescue operation is currently under way. More from GlobalPost: Syria - how it all began with a couple of kids and a can of spray paint

After two years of aggressive public education on prohibited items, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) continues to struggle with communicating the issue of how to properly transport guns and ammunition aboard commercial air carriers. In recent months, reports have included at least three or four gun incidents each day across the country. Checkpoint screeners have done an excellent job in detecting the weapons and keeping them off airplanes, but each situation causes delays in the screening process. Another related cause of delays is the frequent occurrence of weapons not properly declared and packed. Baggage screeners often find guns-loaded and unloaded-amidst clothing and other items in checked bags. Since most instances involve travelers who are not aware of the gun transport rules or who have unknowingly presented the weapon at a checkpoint, the TSA hopes a massive public information campaign will help reduce the number of incidents and resulting unnecessary delays.
TSA is reaching out to gun dealers, sports associations, law enforcement organizations and others to help get the message out concerning the rules for transporting firearms, irearm parts and ammunition. The Federal requirements regarding travel with firearms and ammunition aboard commercial air carrier are listed below. For additional information, go to the TSA Website at
Firearms are
prohibited from carry-on baggage
Firearms must be checked with the air carrier as luggage.
Firearms and ammunition
must be declared
orally or in writing in accordance with the air carrier's procedures.
All firearms
must be unloaded
The firearm
must be carried in a hard-sided container
The container
must be locked
and only the passenger may retain the key or combination.
Ammunition is
prohibited from carry-on luggage
Ammunition may not be carried loose.
Ammunition must travel in the manufacturer's packaging or other packaging suitable for transport.
Ammunition may be packed in the same hard-sided, locked case as the firearm as long as it complies with packaging requirements as stated above and the air carrier permits it to be packed with the firearm.
Firearm parts may not be transported in carry-on baggage.
Failure to fully comply with these requirements may result in civil and/or criminal penalties.

The investigations uncovered numerous instances of city staff signing off on amounts larger than what they were authorized to sign for and of missing documentation and competing bids for certain contracts, according to the documents.
Mike Scheafer, chairman of the 60th Anniversary Planning Committee, said last month he was told his job was to approve all payments for the event.
However, almost every request for checks – a step before the check is paid out – show Joyce signed "for Mike Scheafer" for those checks to pay for the bands.
Scheafer, an active community volunteer, said he was unaware Joyce signed for him until that came to light during the investigations.
Hatch said last week it would be unusual for a volunteer member of a committee to have the authority to approve payments for the city.
Joyce wasn't the only one who signed off on payments for the entertainment costs. Other signatures of staff in the finance department – including former Finance and Information Technology Director Bobby Young – are on the documents as well. In some cases, the costs authorized in a single day exceeded the preliminary entertainment budget of $35,000.
The documents show that Young signed off on $80,650 in expenses – all for entertainment and all on one day, June 6.
Young left his position as the city's finance director last August for a position in the public sector.
"I think this just got big fast and out of control in the end," Dickson reflected.
"Everybody, I think, had the best intents. It's unfortunate that the controls weren't there."

Defense Management:
DOD Needs to Improve Future Assessments of Roles and Missions
GAO-14-668: Published: Jul 31, 2014. Publicly Released: Jul 31, 2014.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-3489
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
What GAO Found
The Department of Defense's (DOD) July 2012 submission to Congress following its most recent Quadrennial Roles and Missions Review did not provide sufficiently detailed information about most of the statutorily required elements of the assessment. Specifically, DOD's July 2012 submission included the results of a 2011 review that led to the January 2012 release of a new strategic guidance document (hereinafter referred to as the Defense Strategic Guidance) as well as the Quadrennial Roles and Missions Review report. Although DOD is not statutorily required to report on all elements of the assessment, the submission that it provided to Congress was lacking key information. A key principle for information quality indicates that information presented to Congress should be clear and sufficiently detailed; however, neither the Defense Strategic Guidance nor the Quadrennial Roles and Missions Review included sufficiently detailed information about certain key elements of the roles and missions assessment. For example, while the submitted documents identify the core missions of the armed services and provide some information on capabilities associated with these missions, neither document provides other information required by the roles and missions assessment—including identifying the DOD components responsible for providing the identified core competencies and capabilities and identifying plans for addressing any unnecessary duplication or capability gaps.
DOD's process for assessing roles and missions missed key principles associated with effective and comprehensive assessments. Specifically, DOD limited its process to leveraging the prior review that resulted in the Defense Strategic Guidance; by doing so its process did not include the following:
A planned approach : DOD did not develop or document a planned approach that included the principles or assumptions used to inform the assessment.
Internal stakeholder involvement: DOD included limited internal stakeholder involvement. For example, DOD gave the armed services a limited opportunity to review the draft prior to its release.
Identification and involvement of external stakeholders : DOD obtained limited input from relevant external stakeholders, such as Congress, on the specific guidance and direction they expected of the roles and missions assessment.
Time frames : DOD did not develop a schedule to gauge progress for conducting the assessment and completing the report, which may have contributed to the report being provided to Congress over 5 months late.
DOD officials stated that the primary reason that they did not perform a separate roles and missions review is that the statutory requirements were duplicative of other reviews and processes, such as the Defense Strategic Guidance. However, by not conducting a comprehensive assessment, DOD missed an opportunity to conduct a department-wide examination of roles and missions. Instead, by relying on processes established for other purposes, DOD has limited assurance that it has fully identified all possible cost savings that can be achieved through the elimination of unnecessary duplication and that it has positioned itself to report clear and sufficient information about the statutorily required assessment to Congress.
Why GAO Did This Study
DOD is one of the largest organizations in the world, with its budget representing over half of the U.S. federal government's discretionary spending. According to DOD, the global security environment presents an increasingly complex set of challenges. Congress requires DOD to assess and report on its roles and missions every 4 years. In July 2012, DOD submitted its most recent Quadrennial Roles and Missions Review report.
In June 2013, GAO was mandated to review DOD's process for conducting the latest Quadrennial Roles and Missions Review. GAO evaluated the extent to which DOD developed a sufficiently detailed report and conducted a comprehensive process for assessing roles and missions. GAO compared DOD's July 2012 report with the statutory requirements for the assessment, and compared DOD's assessment process with key principles derived from a broad selection of principles GAO and other federal agencies have identified.
What GAO Recommends
GAO recommends that, in conducting future assessments of roles and missions, DOD develop a comprehensive process that includes a planned approach, involvement of key internal and external stakeholder involvement, and time frames. DOD partially concurred, stating that it had leveraged other processes. GAO maintains that the roles and missions report was insufficiently detailed and continues to believe the recommendation is valid, as discussed in the report.

Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Open
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: To assist DOD in conducting any future comprehensive assessments of roles and missions that reflect appropriate statutory requirements, the Secretary of Defense should develop a comprehensive process that includes (1) a planned approach, including the principles or assumptions used to inform the assessment, that addresses all statutory requirements; (2) the involvement of key DOD stakeholders, such as the armed services, Joint Staff, and other officials within the department; (3) an opportunity to identify and involve appropriate external stakeholders, to provide input to inform the assessment; and (4) time frames with milestones for conducting the assessment and for reporting on its results.

This is a fun trio but I personally wouldn't wear them at one time. I tried it but it looked tacky and overly shimmery. The dark blue color is my fave and it's works great for the outer corners :) I'm not a big eyeshadow wearer but that color is great for the occasional time I do. I can't vouch too much on the staying power as I haven't worn them for long periods of time.

On the "If you ran out or lost the product" question, I was very torn on how to answer. On one hand, the colors are very lovely, very pigmented, almost high quality. On the other hand, this shadow is very difficult to wear as a personal thing. For one thing, it smells sickly sweet, like Triaz wipes. Next, it's almost impossible to wear this as a day look, even with glasses, without looking skanky. This product works strictly as an evening shadow, and then you have to be very careful with makeup pairings. I overall answered yes to the above question because I might purchase another depending on how my social life looks in a few years, in the meanwhile, I'll keep using the one I have.

Although my eyes are more green than blue when I recently colored my hair to a dark plum/brown (originally red) most of the original colors I wore (gold, copper brown) looked hideous. All of a sudden i was forced to wear either bright colors, or cool toned dark smokey colors. I picked this trio up and instantly fell in love with it for a quick and easy look. It comes with a lilac toned light shimmery grey, a deep blue that comes across more bright when applied and a pale pink as a highlight.
The silver and blue colors are nicely pigmented but the pink shadow definitely lacks pigmentation and is chalky but looks nice with the other two shadows when applied as a highlight.
Now that my hair is starting to fade to its natural color, i don't use this trio too often. The colors are unique but overall I have found better eyeshadows in wet n wild and NYX as well as the other trios I own.

lace curtain struggle
Hi all! i have been looking for some very plain lace curtains(thinking point d'esprit) to go under my lined yellow and blue curtains.
problem is, im trying to find lace like what my mother in law has, ive been reading and searching for months, and can not find anything like it! she bought them at least 20 years ago and cant remember where theyre from, and the tags are too worn to read!
im including a few pictures and hope you can see how this is different from what ive been finding, the embroidery is so simple, and the lace itself very....i dont know how to explain it! plain?
ive gotten a couple samples of cotton stuff(embroidered) and its just not the same, each hole is sort of like a web, not what im after. the curtains MIL has are practically transparent in day time but still offer privacy from the outside/far away and especially at night.
if you have any insight on where i can find something like this, but without flowers, please let me know!(she does have one extra panel in another room that is very similar and from penny's but all they offer is a floral print, my curtains have a very busy floral print so im looking for something very plain to go with!) thanks for any insight!!
Try Etsy store Hatched in France. She has similar items and will also do custom orders. I have three pairs of curtains I got from her and have been completely happy with them.
The type you show is often referred to as French filet lace and is crocheted. That may help in your search.

Country Curtains has a Point d'Esprit panel that I think has the openness that you want. However, it does not have the embroidery that your MIL's panel does.
Here is a link that might be useful: Point d'Esprit panel
but now im sort of wondering, maybe the way they photograph is throwing me off? what im looking for is in no way shiny and i actually wouldn't call them sheer. the net curtains ive been finding are like a voile but up close are lace...this is not that at all... maybe i can get a picture of hers during the day time soon.. i suppose im hoping for somebody to come along and know exactly what im talking about! MIL searched for years to find what she wanted, so im maybe being overly cautious? i feel like theres not a huge market for lace nowadays though and well i dont think it was huge 20 years ago either!
That fabric is embroidered tulle. Try searching on that.
Edited to add an example/link.

Those IKEA curtains linked above are very soft and not shiny at all.
Here's a close up of the IKEA ones with the flowers, just to show you the netting.
They remind me of panels from the Rue de France catalog, which sadly is no longer in business. However, you can still occasionally find their curtains on Ebay and Esty. I have come across similar panels at a website called Olde Worlde Lace, but I've not ordered anything from there.

I will look further into the ikea ones, thanks you two! I had chrcked ikea but only online and didnt see a close-up, the nearest store is 45" away (and in canada) so trips are few and far between!
I will look into rue de france for info a well thank you! I have checke out old world as well striking out of course ::
Those IKEA curtains are super cheap (3.99 for two), so definitely not old world lace. Actually, if you zoom in on the one's lucille posted, you'll see that the netting is actually different from the flowery ones.
Also, see more images below.
