COLUMBIA — Fluoride levels in Columbia's drinking water are higher than a new recommendation from the EPA and Department of Health and Human Services.
The federal agencies recommended that the fluoride level for drinking water be set at 0.7 parts fluoride per million parts of water. The previous recommended amount was between 0.7 and 1.2 parts per million.
Columbia's average fluoride level in 2010 was 1.01 parts per million, according to a city water testing report.
The U.S. has added fluoride to drinking water since the 1940s to aid in cavity prevention. The two agencies moved to lower fluoride levels, noting that Americans get fluoride from more sources than drinking water.
Despite fluoride's positive effect on teeth, overexposure can cause fluorosis among children, which results in streaking or spotting of teeth.
The EPA sets a maximum contaminant level for fluoride in the Safe Drinking Water Act at 4 parts per million. Columbia's water supply has consistently stayed around 1 part per million, according to the Columbia Water and Light Department.
Should the city lower fluoride levels in the drinking water to meet new federal recommendations?

Product description
Marco Pierre White, the "Byron of the kitchen," presents 150 of the iconic recipes and techniques that propelled him to international culinary fame In the UK, Marco Pierre White's brilliant cooking and high-wattage antics have made him an absolute legend: the first British chef (and, at the time, the youngest chef anywhere) to win three Michelin stars, a chain-smoking, pot-throwing, multiply-married culinary genius--the man that many consider the original celebrity chef. Published in U.S. for the first time, "Wild Food""From Land and Sea" is White's most refined vision of gastronomy--the product of thirty years in the kitchen. Here we get a glimpse into the intensive, highly disciplined kitchens in which White's supremely refined food was conjured. There are wild reinventions of French classics, and the playful introduction of strange and surprising ingredients. " Wild Food From Land and Sea "contains 80 recipes, and nearly a hundred basic lessons, making it an important addition to any kitchen.

Author information
Born in Leeds in 1961, Marco Pierre White was the first British chef (and at the time, the youngest chef anywhere in the world) to win three Michelin Stars. He trained at the Hotel St. George in Harrogate, North Yorkshire and later at the Box Tree in Ilkley, West Yorkshire. Arriving in London as a 16-year-old with "7.36, a box of books and a bag of clothes" he began his classical training as a commis under Albert Roux and Michel Roux at Le Gavroche. At 24, he became head chef and joint owner of Harveys in London and later moved to found The Restaurant Marco Pierre White at the former Hyde Park Hotel, where he won his third Michelin star. In 1999, White retired from the kitchen. His work as a restaurateur now includes The Yew Tree Inn, Frankies, and the Marco Pierre White Steak & Alehouse. His first cookbook, "White Heat," was published in 1990. He is also author of "The Devil in the Kitchen: Sex, Pain, Madness, and the Making of a Great Chef. "marcopierrewhite.org
Review quote
"Marco Pierre White is the original rock-star chef, the guy all of us wanted to be." --Anthony Bourdain "Marco is a gift to humanity, with more passion per pound than anyone else I have ever met...His sophisticated cooking came out of nowhere but inside his rock-star head...After all these years, Marco is still my hero." --Mario Batali "Marco is probably the most charismatic chef of the twentieth century: the last of the romantics, a brooding Byron of the Kitchen, the most creative person you'll ever meet and the most self-destructive, a self-described monster and an unrecognized poet, and, without question, the most influential British chef since the invention of fish and chips." --Bill Buford, author of "Heat"" ""Marco Pierre White is the man...cooking at its finest.... He was gritty and glamorous and in your face before everybody and everything was trying to be that way." --David Chang, owner/chef of Momofuku

Bagatelle (music)
This article needs additional citations for verification. (April 2012) |
A bagatelle is a short piece of music, typically for the piano, and usually of a light, mellow character. The name bagatelle literally means "a short unpretentious instrumental composition" as a reference to the light style of a piece (Oxford English Dictionary 2001; Kennedy and Kennedy 2007). Although bagatelles are generally written for solo piano, they have also been written for piano four hands, harpsichord, harp, organ, classical guitar, vibraphone, unaccompanied oboe, clarinet, violin, viola, various chamber-music configurations, orchestra, band, voice and piano, and a capella choir.
Earliest known bagatelle[edit]
The earliest use of the name "bagatelle" for a musical work was by François Couperin, in his tenth harpsichord ordre (1717), in which a rondeau is titled "Les bagatelles" (Brown 2001).
Best-known bagatelles[edit]
The best-known bagatelles are probably those by Ludwig van Beethoven, who published three sets, Opp. 33, 119 and 126, and wrote a number of similar works that were unpublished in his lifetime including the piece that is popularly known as Für Elise. Other notable examples are Franz Liszt's Bagatelle sans tonalité (an early exploration into atonality), a set for violin and piano (Op. 13) by François Schubert of which No. 9, The Bee, is often performed, the set by Antonín Dvořák for two violins, cello and harmonium (Op. 47), and sets by Bedřich Smetana, Alexander Tcherepnin and Jean Sibelius. Anton Diabelli also wrote a bagatelle in a short, happy form. Camille Saint-Saëns wrote Six Bagatelles, Op. 3, and Friedrich Baumfelder also wrote just one bagatelle, Op. 386, which was composed in his later years.
In the 20th century, several composers have written sets of bagatelles, including Béla Bartók, who wrote a set of fourteen (Op. 6); Anton Webern, who wrote a set of six for string quartet (Op. 9); and Gerald Finzi, who wrote Five Bagatelles for clarinet and piano. Another canonical modern bagatelle is the set by György Ligeti, who originally composed a set of eleven short works for piano entitled Musica Ricercata (1951–53), and later arranged a selection of them as Six Bagatelles for Wind Quintet (1953).[citation needed]
The Northern Irish composer Howard Ferguson wrote a set of Five Bagatelles for piano (Op. 9), which, along with his Piano Sonata in F minor, are among the composer's few regularly performed works. William Walton also wrote Five Bagatelles for the classical guitar for Julian Bream dedicated to composer Malcolm Arnold around 1970 (Walton 1974). These five pieces have been recorded by several eminent classical guitarists including Julian Bream, Sharon Isbin, Christopher Parkening, and Ana Vidović. The American composer Charles Wuorinen wrote a Bagatelle for solo piano, which he later orchestrated. The Australian composer Carl Vine also wrote Five Bagatelles for piano (1994), which are quite frequently performed at piano competitions, especially in Australia. Peruvian composer Jorge Villavicencio Grossmann also wrote Cinco Bagatelas Opacas y Traslucidas for violin and piano (also existing in a trio version with bass clarinet).

Guys Read Too
"Irish businessman will pay large amount of U.S. dollars to meet a fairy, sprite, leprechaun, or pixie."
The ad was posted on the Internet. Indeed, it generated numerous fraudulent responses, but the person who placed it only needed one true lead for his purposes. He had studied all he could in the mundane world he inhabited, but he knew the important secrets of the Fairy would only be known by others of their kind. However, in Artemis Fowl, by Eoin Colfer, the Irish businessman posting the ad did not mention that he was stupendously rich—and rather young. In his mind, the latter certainly did not signify.
My favorite book when I was in high school was I Heard the Owl Call my Name, by Margaret Craven, so I decided to reread it to see how I related to the book now. Even though it is almost 50 years old, the book is still just as timely and beautifully-written as it was in the 60's. Perhaps its message is even more important in today's world. It is about a young Vicar, Mark Brian, who has been diagnosed with only a few years to live. His Bishop has been told his diagnosis, but the Vicar has not.
When the Bishop learns of the young Vicar's diagnosis he says, "So short a time to learn so much? It leaves me with no choice. I shall send him to my hardest parish. I shall send him to Kingcome on patrol of the Indian Villages."
"In Darkness I count my blessings like Manman taught me.
One: I am alive,
Two: there is no two."
In Darkness, by Nick Lake, is set in Haiti immediately after the devastating earthquake of 2010. It is the story of Shorty, a boy who has grown up in a violent slum of Port-au-Prince called The Site. But Shorty's life is somehow interwoven with the spirit of Touissant l'Ouverture, visionary leader of Haiti's slave revolution of 1791 to 1803.
Despite being thought of primarily as an author of adult-oriented literature, Neil Gaiman has published several young adult titles over his career, including MirrorMask, M Is for Magic, and The Books of Magic. One of his best loved YA titles was Coraline, published in 2002. Coraline's imaginative plot, memorable characters and evocative illustrations by Dave McKean made it a modern classic of YA literature, and an excellent film adaptation was released in 2009. Gaiman's The Graveyard Book follows in the footsteps of Coraline and presents another vivid journey into a richly imaginative fantasy world.
Leave it to Cory Doctorow, author, blogger, and technology activist-extraordinaire, to weave a story that successfully blends coming-of-age woes, homelessness, national politics, copyright law, cooking, gadgetry, love, overcoming homophobia, civil disobedience, film-making, mashups, public speaking, the judicial system, beer and coffee brewing, cryptography, and oh so, so much more into a wonderfully geeky, heart-wrenching, page-turning bang-up novel that people of all ages should read. This book is full of such big, exquisite ideas to learn about that you'll be Googling your fingers off through the entire story and I mean that in the best way possible. You will learn reading Pirate Cinema and you will love this as much as you love the characters.
Jake Knight seems to have it all. He's a fifteen-year-old technology whiz who can jump a ten-foot wall with his parkour skills. He's enrolled in a nice British school, and his dad is an ambassador to the small West African country of Burkina Faso. To Jake, Africa is a land of excitement and adventure...and he will soon learn that it is also the land of the Outlaw.
Jake thinks his boarding school life is pretty lame and spends his time playing Geothimble, a scavenger hunt that uses GPS technology. When Jake's extracurricular activity gets him suspended, he is sent to his father's embassy. Jake could not be happier, but little does he know that he's about to get enough excitement to last a lifetime.
She never knew her father the farmer. But in Paul Fleischman's Seedfolks, Kim is determined to do something to connect with him, though he died before she was born in far-off Vietnam. Her mother and sisters remember him with incense and candles on the anniversary of his death. However, that's not enough for Kim. She has something else in mind even though the prospect of carrying it through is unnerving. The Cleveland neighborhood her family can afford to live in is scary. But outside the apartment building is vacant lot. Well, it's not exactly vacant. It's filled with junk—an old couch, tires, all kinds of trash—a real haven for rats. But it's ground that's not spoken for. And Kim has a plan.
Frank Gallows has some explaining to do. The burned-out ghost wrangler has just sent an innocent child into the world of the dead. The kid's name is Garth Hale. In the regular world, he's just your average boy...who also happens to have a terminal illness. But Garth discovers that he has some quite extraordinary powers in Ghostopolis.
No living souls have ever made it back to the regular world, so Mr. Gallows is losing his job for this big-time screw up. The fact that Garth didn't have much time to live in the first place makes the situation even worse. Gallows has to hang up hunting those ghosts who wish to remain in the land of the living. He'll never have the pleasure of capturing repeater offender Benedict Arnold. No, Gallows has to right this wrong. Luckily, his ex-fiancée Claire Voyant has a machine that can take you back and forth between the worlds. Frank is going to have to play nice.
Let me get this out of the way: if you're not a "computer person," someone with more than a vague knowledge of computer networking technology, Brain Jack, by Brian Falkner, is probably not the book for you. If, however, you ARE such a person, Brain Jack will start off as the kind of thriller that you think you will love, but its ending, like so many other cyber-thrillers, feels rushed and absurd. Don't get me wrong--you'll enjoy reading it, but don't expect anything too deep from this book.
Sam is the generic hero of our story. He's 17; he's a computer prodigy; and he's going to save the country from itself. The world of Brain Jack is set only a few years into our future. Falkner does a good job of building a world that, initially, is entirely conceivable based on our present. Computer technology is even more prevalent, and its consequences all the more potent. Las Vegas has been the victim of a nuclear attack that has left it in ruins, and the rest of the country is decaying under strict martial conditions.
Mahlia and Mouse are War Maggots, children orphaned by endless bloodshed across future America. The seas have risen and many of our large East-Coast cities have struggled to keep functioning. That struggle leads to violence, the kind of which leaves only the young to deal with the consequences. These child soldiers have inherited and will fight to control The Drowned Cities.
Author Paulo Bacigalupi slammed onto the young adult scene two years back with Ship Breaker. Resources are depleted. Oil is gone. New Orleans has been destroyed by hurricanes and rebuilt multiple times. Nailer, a boy hired to scavenge scrap metal in massive retired oil tankers, manages to find a path to a better life. Nailer desperately tried to take that path, despite opposition from ruthless vultures, specifically his drunken, abusive father.

OLYMPIA — A proposed law requiring parents to be notified of an abortion for any girl under 18 will get a hearing in a Senate committee this year, and possibly a full debate and floor vote.
State Sen. Mike Padden, R-Spokane Valley, told a cheering crowd of anti-abortion activists Tuesday that a parental notification bill will get the first Senate hearing in years sometime during the next few weeks.
"You have to keep up the fight," he told demonstrators at the annual March for Life, who filled the steps of the Capitol and the steps of the Temple of Justice across the flag plaza. The Washington State Patrol estimated the crowd at more than 2,000.
Padden is a co-sponsor of the bill and chairman of the Law and Justice Committee, which has jurisdiction over the bill, so a hearing is a sure thing. The committee's membership also includes other strong abortion opponents such as Sen. Pam Roach, R-Auburn, who told the cheering crowd that parental notification for a medical procedure was logical. Minors can't get tattoos in Washington, even with their parents' permission, she said.
Last week, Republican leaders of the House and Senate criticized Gov. Jay Inslee's call for passage of the Reproductive Parity Act, which would require all insurance plans that cover live births to cover abortions also. At the time, they said they thought the Legislature should focus on the budget rather than on "politically divisive issues."
"Social issues right now are not as important as getting people back to work," said House Minority Leader Richard DeBolt, R-Chehalis.
The parental notification bill involves the same politically divisive issue as the Reproductive Parity Act, albeit from the opposite side of the spectrum. But Padden said it also involves the issue of parents' rights, and that while the budget will continue to be the Legislature's primary focus, it has time to tackle other issues.
Sen. Rodney Tom, the Medina Democrat who heads the coalition majority, has said "it's up to the committee chairmen" to decide what bills to hear, Padden added. Once out of the Law and Justice Committee, it would go to the floor if approved by the Senate Rules Committee, which has many Republicans opposed to abortion. Tom, who is on the Rules Committee, supports abortion rights and has said the coalition "won't turn back the clock on social issues."
The House has a similar parental notification bill, sponsored by Rep. Matt Shea, another Spokane Valley Republican, as well as a bill that would declare that "the right to life begins at the moment the individual comes into being." But with a strong Democratic majority in charge of that chamber, Padden said, "I can't imagine they'll get a hearing."
Shea told demonstrators they must be ready to stand up against abortion. "Life is the foundation of freedom," he said.

Apparently some Iowans are proud of the iconic butter cow ("Iowans Rue Attack on Fair's Butter Cow," Aug. 13).
Yet just as the sculpture is emblematic of the Iowa State Fair, its dousing in red paint represents resistance against the intensive production systems in which most milk is produced. Millions of cows raised in such systems suffer from mastitis (a painful infection of the udder), lameness and infertility problems. Moreover, most dairy calves are removed from their mothers immediately after birth, and the female calves are commonly subjected to tail docking, dehorning and the removal of "extra" teats.
Although cows can live for more than 20 years, they're usually killed at about five years of age. Sadly, investigations by Mercy For Animals have also exposed abuse on dairy farms, including workers brutally beating cows and leaving cows to suffer for weeks when they're too injured, weak or sick to stand and walk.

MV Agusta really DID screw Harley
When Harley-Davidson announced that MV would be sold back to Castiglioni, they didn't mention the price of the sale. As a publicly traded company, however, you can't actually keep that a secret.
Via the Wall Street Journal, according to the company's 8-K filing, the sale price was 3 Euros. But get this:
In the filing Harley said it "contributed 20 million Euros to MV as operating capital" that was put in escrow and is available to the buyer over a 12-month period. The buyer is Claudio Castiglioni, who, with his brother Gianfranco, ran MV Agusta for years before selling it to Harley two years ago for about $109 million.
So, H-D paid $109 million for MV, they then had to pay $162.6 million in write-downs to cover MV's bad debts, and then they had to pay Castiglioni another $20 million to take it back.
I'm sorry, but that's just hilarious!
But, of course, I'm not a Harley shareholder. They probably aren't as amused to learn this.
2 Responses to MV Agusta really DID screw Harley
Reminds me of Novell buy WordPerfect for over a $1 billion, then a couple years later selling it to Corel for about $100 million.
These are scary signs that company management has a "make the deal" problem. Where "making the deal" is more important than what is in the "deal." -
The union members in Milwaukee are being told to renegotiate their contract 2 years early to save a mere 50 million or the factory moves out of town. I told a friend in the union about this and she was pissed….

I applied through college or university – interviewed at MBI.
Easy, behavioral. Offered chance to 2nd round interview in Norwalk, turned down because I had another offer on the table. I guess you go through some type of testing at the 2nd round interview, probably analytical skills.
Interview Questions
- Very much what you'd expect, such as why MBI, biggest failure in past few years, experience questions, etc. Wasn't super impressed with the products/system (seems outdated to me) but would be a great fit for the right people. If you're looking for work/life balance, they don't let you take work home, so that would be super! Answer Question

Staff Reporter
GUNTUR: Kola Bhargavi, film actor, who was murdered in her flat in Banjara Hills in Hyderabad, came here on Saturday to take part in promotional programmes of a private cell phone company. She visited her parents, Rajendra Prasad and Bhanumathi, residing at Gorantla and her grandfather, Satyanarayana and told them she would be busy shooting for the next three months .
Soon after hearing the news, her parents and elder sister left for Hyderabad. "She was always cheerful and confident. I could not believe my eyes as the news about her murder was flashed on the TV. She has achieved so much in her life at a young age and coming from a family, which has no cinema background, I was shocked," said her grandfather.

Hopefully we get some information on this kid later on today from Fay or the Reds website. Baseball America only puts out new stuff Monday-Friday so we should get some info from them tomorrow on Duran.
In addition to signing Duran, below is a link to Doug's site that lists all the new International signings the Reds have recently. Duran is not on the list since he just signed. Once guy on the list who sticks out to me is 16 year old RHP Carlos Tineo. 16 years old and he's already 6'5" and 195 pounds. I'll be keeping a close eye on him over the next few years.
We'll see if the kid was a highly contested sign. May have just turned 16, the legal age for signing, and the Reds pounced immediately.
Nice to see activity on the international front -- if they don't go spending big in the draft, part of the reason is a signing like this. Consider this kid part of the 2008 crop.
"Baseball is a very, very complex business. It's more of a people business than most businesses." - Bob Castellini
Yup. I'd love to know how hard he throws right now. With him being only 16 years old and having such a projectible body type, he could probably add another 4-5 mph to his fastball before he turns 21 years old.
Also nice to see some shortstops signed. Mariekson Gregorius is supposedly a pretty good prospect too. IIRC the Reds beat out the Yankees for his services. Jose Sugilio is another intriging SS - just turned 18 over the offseason and is listed at 6'3" 165. Pretty room to fill out and add power.
And another interesting pitcher is Jesus Adames. He just turned 17 years old in late January and is listed at 6'4" and 195 pounds. The Reds did some pretty good scouting this year it looks like. I'm still excited to read more about Juan Duran - I'm sure we'll get some more info on him tomorrow from Baseball America.
Generally how it works is that when a player becomes of age to sign, the interested teams submit their offers by a specific date and then at that point the player/agent/buscone decide which one to take. Usually its the one for the most money, but sometimes players sign with the teams they like.
Like OBM said, I hope someone gets some more information on him up soon. I might have to try and get ahold of some people if nothing comes out tomorrow.
-LTlabnerIf you can't build a winning team with that core a fire-sale isn't the solution. Selling the franchise, moving them to Nashville and converting GABP into a used car lot is.
I presume that despite being 16 years old, these players are still on 6-year minor league contracts?
-LTlabnerIf you can't build a winning team with that core a fire-sale isn't the solution. Selling the franchise, moving them to Nashville and converting GABP into a used car lot is.
I wonder if this one of those "20 year old" 16 year olds that Latin America is famous for?

Dateline: Malaysia -- Pfizer Pharmaceuticals has withdrawn their impotence drug Viagra as a potential prize in a Far Eastern golf tournament. Organizers of the Chequers Golf Classic in Putrajaya, Malaysia, had planned to give a year's supply of Viagra to the first two players to score a "hole in one" at the tournament. "We do not want it misunderstood that we are treating [erectile dysfunction] lightly," Pfizer Malaysia managing director Radzmi Rahmat told a local newspaper. The company will now donate a cash prize instead.
Dateline: Tanzania -- A police report issued last Tuesday out of Dar Es Salaam claims that more than 350 people have been killed by angry villagers in Tanzania in the last year and a half after being accused of being witches or wizards. Tanzania's Criminal Investigation Department estimates that an average of 21 superstition-based murders are committed each month. The murdered people were most often old men or women accused of practicing witchcraft by killing loved ones, inflicting curses, causing businesses to fail or reducing crop harvests. Witchcraft murders have been reported recently in southern Tanzania and have been linked to a cross-border trade in human skin. The skin is believed to protect homes from demons and, when used in certain rituals, to increase harvests and lure clients to shops.
Dateline: Egypt -- Egyptian police have arrested a man known as an exorcist after he beat a woman to death in an effort to rid her of demons. Hamed Mohammad, 45, was detained by police in Cairo last Monday after the family of 40-year-old housewife Satan Amer found her dead following a session with the self-proclaimed exorcist. Amer suffered from epilepsy and, after local doctors failed to cure her, the woman's family apparently sought the help of Mohammad. Mohammad locked Amer in a room and proceeded to beat her to death with a large stick in an attempt to rid her of the "four spirits" thought to be causing her fits. On the plus side, the demons seem to have left the woman.
Dateline: Pennsylvania -- It was a routine speeding stop outside Washington, Pa., until State Trooper Jeffrey Seeley asked the car's nervous-looking passenger about drugs or guns -- and the man fainted dead away. The incident began when Seeley clocked a sedan on Interstate 70 passing at 62 mph in a 55 mph zone. The officer had decided to simply write the driver a warning, but changed his mind when the driver and his backseat passenger began acting "very antsy." The alert trooper ordered the two to step out of the vehicle and then asked Marlon Matez Lee, the backseat passenger who had apparently rented the vehicle, if there were any drugs or guns in the car. According to Seeley, Lee "just rolled right back over the guardrail." Tipped off by the passed-out passenger, Seeley searched the vehicle's trunk and promptly came up with 10 kilograms of cocaine.
Dateline: Dallas -- Researchers in a Dallas Zoo project have been trying to lure about 100 isolated ocelots in south Texas to a single spot so the few remaining endangered animals will breed with each other. According to Cynthia Bennett, the zoo's research curator, ocelot poop, snake skin and snake musk were all used with varying degrees of response. None of those odorous offerings, however, did the trick quite as well as a liberal sprinkling of Calvin Klein's Obsession. The men's cologne apparently lured the cats into a frenzy of amorous behavior. One particular seven-year-old female named Chula seemed especially susceptible. "She'd rub up against it. She'd roll in it. She'd lay on it. It was almost embarrassing," said Bennett. Zoo officials did inform the offices of fashion figure Calvin Klein of their results. According to Ms. Bennett, "They thought it was cute."

I am LUCKY because I get to do creative things
Wright, P. R. and Palmer, D. (2009) I am LUCKY because I get to do creative things. In: The 6th International Drama in Education Research Institute, 14-19 July 2009, Sydney, Australia
*No subscription required
This paper will describe a 3 year research project with marginalised and disenfranchised young people based in rural and regional Tasmania. In this project arts skills and processes where used to develop various forms of performance texts. These texts became the basis of a series of radio plays and performance projects with the objective of developing intergenerational relationships, promoting social inclusion and building identity. The research revealed how performative means can:
• unleash creativity
• expand horizons
• build social bonds
• create a sense of common experience
• re-engage people experiencing dislocation and isolation with communities around them
• provide pathways back to education and into employment
• provide vitality to communities and quality of life.
It is these artistic processes that allow young people to CELEBRATE (the present), HONOUR (the past), and ENVISION (the future).

Two Activists Assaulted at PA Pigeon ShootOne Given a Bloody Head Wound
NEWS RELEASE April 18, 2011
Bill to Ban Shoots to be Heard in PA Senate on April 26
Yesterday, Sunday April 18, SHARK documented a pigeon shoot at the infamous Wing Pointe canned hunting resort in Berks County. SHARK activist Janet Enoch, who was in sitting in her legally parked minivan outside the club on public property, was assaulted by one man leaving the club who repeatedly slapped her and her camera. When he finally stopped, he called her a "F--king rotten bitch," and then left. Her assailant had NJ license plates.
Watch the assault against Janet Enoch
"What the Senators of Pennsylvania need to know is that, beyond the utterly cruel violence inflicted upon animals, is that there is also a real disdain for women at these shoots," states SHARK President Steve Hindi. "That a man would readily go up to a woman in a car and start slapping her around is the disgraceful act of a coward."
This incident is reminiscent of another pigeon shooter from NJ, Richard Shackleton, who cursed out a PA female activist when he said "go f--k yourself you rotten c--t," as she was legally videotaping on public property.
"Those senators working for the NRA to protect pigeon shoots need to know that these are the type of twisted bully cowards they are protecting," states Hindi. "And we are going to make sure the public knows it too."
A short time after the Enoch assault, SHARK President Steve Hindi, who was legally videotaping the shoot from the public property bordering the club was assaulted when a man wielding a dog leash whipped him in the head, striking him with the metal clip, causing a bloody injury.
SHARK strongly encourages the legislators of Pennsylvania to support SB626 to ban pigeon shoots and finally end this long nightmare of cruelty to animals and violence to humans.
Watch the Shackelton video here.
Click here for video of pigeons SHARK has rescued.
Picture of Steve Hindi soon after being assaulted
PA Senate Bill SB626, which would ban pigeon shoots, is coming up for a vote in the full Senate on April 26 (next Tuesday). Please contact your Pennsylvania State Senator and politely and respectfully ask that they vote "yes" on SB 6262! Click here for a list of all Pennsylvania Senators

European Commission Dashes Hopes For Audit Liability Caps
Last month, AccountingWEB reported [1] that a move was on to lobby the European Commission - the executive arm of the European Union - to cap the legal liability of auditing firms.
But in a glaring setback for any such lobbying efforts, EU's Internal Market Commissioner Frits Bolkestein said in a speech [2] at a financial conference in London on March 24 that unlimited liability exposure was a catalyst for quality work: "After so many major financial reporting scandals and potential audit failures, regulators need to act to restore investor confidence... An intervention limiting liability, to my mind, would not serve to revive the trust of investors..... Third parties should be able to rely on the correctness of companies' financial statements and be in a position to claim damages in case of fraudulent financial reporting," he said.
Mr. Bolkestein laid out four reasons not to cap auditor liability:
- Unlimited auditor liability is a quality driver
- Liability systems exist for the protection of the persons who suffered damage not for the convenience of those who may be at fault
- Increased auditor liability is partly a self-created problem
- Audit is by its very nature a function which is carried out in the public interest. This implies that 3rd parties should be able to rely on the correctness of companies' financial statements and be in a position to claim damages in case of fraudulent financial reporting.
Reacting to those comments was Neil Lerner, global head of regulatory matters at KPMG, expressing disappointment with Mr. Bolkestein's comments. "There is a genuine risk of the Big Four becoming a Big Three or fewer if there is not concerted action by governments around the world to introduce liability capping," said Lerner.
The European Commission is due to issue an audit strategy within the next 4-6 weeks to address corporate governance issues and to improve the regulation of accounting firms within the European Union.
Read Mr. Bolkestein's entire speech. [2]
