Wow, sounds like you's need a loooong rest. Lots of hard work.
One last big day
Trip Start
Oct 16, 2012
Trip End
Apr 20, 2013
The tiny village that we had stayed in had a limited water supply, even though the rainy season is just ending. They had no water when we arrived and all night, and just gave us a couple of pots of water to boil for drinking/cooking with and a pot to flush the toilet (very unsuccessfully). They had a shower area, in the open, just outside of their main living area, which consisted of a big drum of water that they had collected (this wasn't for drinking though, so I wonder if it was "used" dishwashing water or something). They then gave you a saucepan to throw the water over yourself, Kory got right in there but I figured that I probably wasn't dirty enough to need to give the whole family the spectacle of me pouring freezing cold water over myself, and stuck to using a wetwipe instead. In the morning, they had some running water but from the intensity of their collecting it I presume they knew they would only have it for a short time. They were very careful to use the smallest amount needed for each task and to re-use it when possible. Although I found it infuriating to not have water available for simple tasks, such as cleaning your teeth, I can't imagine what it is like to live with this concern everyday. It seemed like a morning routine for them to collect and store the water for the rest of the day, and then to frugally use it in case they didn't have any tomorrow.
We spent about an hour in the morning trying to fix my pedal and managed to temporarily attach it but it might not last as a long term solution. We headed off and joined a road made of mainly dust. The last few hours of our cycling yesterday was on gravel and we knew that we had about 30km of dirt/dust to cycle over this morning. Unfortunately it really slowed us down and it took us much longer than we were hoping for to cover the distance. We stopped a few times for drinks and slowly climbed up 400m on dirt road to arrive into the town of Huanta. We enjoyed a standard lunch and a couple more drinks, as the weather was hot and sunny and we were feeling dehydrated.
In the afternoon, we covered a further 50km on paved road, but it was a lot more climbing and descending, which continued to be slow going. The day finished with a big climb into town, which was enough to finish us both off and we arrived into town quite exhausted. We had enjoyed the scenery through the valley though and were pleased with ourselves for covering the distance in only three days.
We found a nice hotel, with amazing views of the nearby church and of the city from the rooftop balcony area, which was connected to our room. The views even made having to carry our bikes and bags up four flights of stairs worthwhile! We could breath a sigh of relief, we had made it and for us it signifies the beginning of a new stage of our Peru journey, when we set off next it will be with destination Cuzco, which has been on our radar for months now.

Public Lecture - How Families Influence Adolescents "How Families Influence Adolescents" Part of the Providence University College Public Lecture Series 2014, a community service for the general public. Admission is free – no registration is required. In our society, teens have may different voices trying to gain power of influence over them. These voices come from places such as popular music, professional sports, peer groups, and political ideologies. Often these voices can be overwhelmingly powerful. However, one voice that is often overlooked is the voice of the family. Research shows us that of all the voices that can influence a child or teen, the voice of the family is actually the most influential one. We will explore why this is true, and how this voice can be the most powerful positive influence for children and teens. Location: McNally Robinson Bookstore - Grant Park |

Traveling Green
About the author: Lina Younes has been working for EPA since 2002 and chairs EPA's Multilingual Communications Task Force. Prior to joining EPA, she was the Washington bureau chief for two Puerto Rican newspapers and she has worked for several government agencies.
As the first droves of tourists arrive in the Washington, DC area, some of us are starting to make family vacation plans for the year. Many people are interested in "going local," not only to cut travel costs but to reduce their carbon footprint as well. The Washington area offers many nearby vacationing opportunities where you can get away from it all while protecting the environment.
Increasingly, there are more vacation spots that are going green. Whether these sites emphasize nature trails and the great outdoors, you can select hotels and destinations that are truly green. In fact, there are numerous websites that rate environmentally friendly hotels in the US and worldwide.
When we're talking about green vacations, green practices goes beyond just using your towels and sheets for two or three days in a row or even turning off the lights and TV while you're not in the room. These are good tips that apply whenever you're traveling either for business or pleasure. Notwithstanding, a green hotel, for example, will use environmentally friendly practices such as water efficient fixtures and practices, energy efficient lighting and equipment, integrated pest management practices, to name a few.
Furthermore, you can explore other ways to reduce your carbon footprint while on vacation such as using public transportation or walking to the different sites whenever possible. So, as you start discussing your vacation plans with your family, take a moment or two to factor in some green options. Have a safe journey. Bon voyage!

My family travels often, and, like many families, we view our vacation time as a time to indulge in ways we may not normally when at home. As such, we are not typically as willing to be as environmentally conscious on vacation as we are at home. However, after the emergence of new databases such as the ones listed above, my family has realized that we do not necessarily have to sacrifice our increased level of comfort while traveling for "green" behavior. One particular article we found helpful lists hotels that maintain great amenities and comforts while still meeting green certification standards: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27522930/.

Jessica E–Thanks for the suggestions.
It's true that when we go on vacation we often are seeking freedom from our daily routines and constraints. Nonetheless, we still can go green in the process. I liked your recommended link. Here are some others:

Chestnut. Galena Illinois Resort | Chestnut Mountain Resort Driving strait from the city it would be about 6 hours. They have 475ft drop and 220 acres. Hiddenvalley is 310ft and 30acres. I went early in the season and it blows HV out of the water. My friend just got back from there last weekend and couldn't stop talking about how much better the park set up is.

Denver Colorado is apparently only a ten hour drive if you're willing to stay cramped in a car a couple more hours... (and if you're speeding, it might be less, but you wouldn't do that obviously... )
Hidden Valley is literally right next door (30 minutes away) if you need a quick fix or just a day trip over the weekend. Prices aren't horrible, although it's nothing compared to anything out west... Chestnut Mountain is much better than Hidden Valley from personal experience. It's not so much 50/50 regarding chairlift time to slope time when compared to Hidden Valley. Most of the people at Chestnut seemed pretty nice while I was there too. (+1 towards Chestnut blowing Hidden Valley's terrain park out of the water) |

The activists also want the government to block the controversial Anti-Homosexuality Bill, which will soon be introduced in parliament.
Sex Minorities Uganda's executive director Frank Mugisha, in a statement issued on Wednesday, said they were appealing to government to end the abuse of gays.
"As we today mark 2012 International Day against Homophobia and Transphobia, the LGBTI community calls on the Parliament of Uganda to reject the Anti-Homosexuality Bill that is still pending in Parliament, that incites unnecessary hatred and violence in the communities where we live and makes us daily targets for hate crimes, making it impossible for us to live freely," he said.
The statement was issued to coincide with the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia.
Mugisha emphasised the need to punish those who abuse homosexuals because of their sexual orientation.
"We request government to punish any violence targeted towards Ugandans for their sexual orientation and identities, as human rights are inherent regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity," he said.
Gays in Uganda chose the theme, "Don't punish love, punish violence to celebrate the day."
Mugisha said the theme was inspired by a statement from the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay who urged countries to repeal discriminatory laws.
"Around the world, people are arrested, attacked, tortured and killed, just for being in a loving relationship," she said. "We cannot let these abuses stand."
The day is celebrated on May 17 every year because on the same date in 1990 the World Health Organization (WHO) removed homosexuality from its list of mental disorders.
"This action served to end more than a century of medical homophobia," Mugisha said. "The decision of the WHO constitutes a historic date for members of the community."
Ugandan gays and lesbians continue to experience hate speech, violence-inciting legislation, arrests, evictions, threats to life, arbitrary detention, blackmail, denial to services, loss of family and loss of property.
He added: "The LGBTI community, denounces the government's complacent position and continued refusal to accord LGBTI Ugandans equal access to the human and civil rights every other Ugandan is entitled to under the constitution, and for continuing to make same sex relationships criminal.
Efforts to get comment from governmet officials about gays celebrating the day were fruitless.
Same sex relationships are regarded as taboo in conservative Uganda.

5 Ways to INCREASE BATTERY LIFE (iOS 4) [iPhone | iPad | iPod Touch]
5 simple tips to increase and save battery on you iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch. Here is the written script: 1.A big battery killer is screen brightness. Make sure it is set at around half full and and have auto-brightness toggled. 2.Another is if you have an email account set up on your device. If you do, head over to the Settings application, tap on the Mail, Contacts, Calendars option and then look for Fetch New Data. Look under Fetch have it set to Hourly, or for extreme battery saving, click Manually. Personally, I have it on hourly, witch automatically checks if I have new mail every hour from the last check ( you can also check for mail manually by opening the mail app). Under Manually, the device will only check for mail if you open the application. 3.Push Notifications. To see which apps have this feature activated, go to settings, and then Notifications. Go through all of the apps in the list and only toggle the ones that are actually needed 4. The last daily step to increase battery life are the background apps. When you double press the home button, hold down a application icon until it starts wiggling and a red X appears in the corner of it. Close app the apps until it's empty. 5. The last step, which is very important, but only required every month or two, is the most time consuming. Calibrating the battery. To do so charge your iDevice (at night) until completely (100%) full. Allow it to remain plugged in two hours after 100% (although you can use it or not …

(2nd LD) Divers comb sunken ferry after recovering 16 bodies from inside
2014/04/20 13:21
JINDO, South Korea, April 20 (Yonhap) -- Rescue divers combed the sunken ferry Sewol off South Korea on Sunday after retrieving more than a dozen bodies from inside the underwater wreck for the first time since the sinking, as hopes fade for any survivors among hundreds of people remaining missing.
A total of 16 bodies have been recovered from inside the ship since Navy and Coast Guard divers pulled the first of them Saturday night, bringing the confirmed death toll to 50 and reinforcing fears that many of the 256 people still unaccounted for are trapped inside.
A total of 476 people were aboard the 6,825-ton ship, mostly students from a high school near Seoul, when it sank Wednesday last week, and 174 of them have since been rescued. The ferry was on its way to the southern resort island of Jeju from the western port of Incheon.
Divers focused on searching passenger compartments of the ship. Strong currents and low visibility underwater have hampered diving operations, and officials said they will take maximum advantage of brief periods occurring a few times a day when currents slow down.
Weather in the area was relatively good on Sunday.
About 560 divers will take turns to go underwater during the day while 204 Navy, Coast Guard and private vessels and 34 aircraft will scour the area, officials said. Diving operations are expected to pick up pace as five underwater routes guiding divers to the wreck have been set up, officials said.
Police officers carry bodies of victims from the sunken ferry Sewol on April 20. (Yonhap)
More than four days since the sinking, hopes were quickly diminishing of finding anyone alive among those believed to be trapped inside the wreckage. Experts have said people could possibly survive for 72 hours if there were air pockets in the compartments.
Earlier Sunday, dozens of angry families of those missing staged a sit-in for about two hours on the island of Jindo near the sinking site off the southwest coast after police blocked them from making a protest visit to the presidential office in Seoul.
Some of them scuffled with police, shouting, "Save my children!"
Families are upset that the government mishandled the disaster and has not done enough to save possible survivors. They later broke up voluntarily and agreed to hold talks with Prime Minister Chung Hong-won.
The government has been under strong criticism for bungling its initial response to the accident. It had been unable to figure out exactly how many people were aboard the ship, and it revised the figure, as well as the numbers of those rescued and missing, many times.
Anger was also running high that such a high number of people are missing when there was enough time to save the passengers because it took nearly two hours for the ferry to sink. Families are also outraged that diving operations have been slow and that it took five days to pull the first body from inside the ship.
Early Sunday, the first funerals were held for students from Danwon High School in Ansan near Seoul. The three 17-year-olds were among the 325 students aboard the ship on a school trip to Jeju. Dozens of the students have been confirmed dead, and most of the missing are also students from the same school.
Funerals for two teachers were also held.
The vice principal of the school, who led the students on the ferry trip, killed himself last Friday apparently out of guilt that he has been rescued while hundreds of his students remain unaccounted for.
The government is expected to designate Ansan, home of Danwon High School, as well as Jindo, the site of the sinking, as special disaster zones, according to presidential spokesman Min Kyung-wook. The designation provides legal grounds for the government to provide financial and other support for the families of victims.
Prime Minister Chung planned to hold a meeting of related ministers later in the day to discuss a proposal on designating the zones before making a decision at a meeting of the state committee on disaster management. Park is expected to endorse the decision later.
An investigation is under way into what exactly caused the ship to go down when weather was good. Police have arrested the ship's 69-year-old captain, Lee Joon-seok, and two other crew members Saturday on suspicions of negligence and violation of maritime law.
An inexperienced third mate was steering the ferry at the time of the sinking.
An initial focus of the probe has been on suspicions that the ship made too sharp a turn for unclear reasons, leading its cargo, which has not been fastened tightly enough, to shift to one side and getting the entire ship to lose its balance.
An official of the probe team said they have almost ruled out the possibility of the boat hitting a submerged rock. Initial reports said the vessel could have hit an underwater rock based on survivors' accounts that they heard a thumping sound before it started to list.
The captain has also been a target of public outrage as he was one of the first to leave the sinking ferry. Survivors also said that they were told to stay put where they were several times even when the ship was tilting and sinking.

Topotecan and Vinorelbine in Treating Patients With Recurrent Lung Cancer
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan and vinorelbine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of topotecan when given together with vinorelbine in treating patients with recurrent lung cancer.
Condition | Intervention | Phase |
Lung Cancer |
Drug: topotecan hydrochloride Drug: vinorelbine tartrate |
Phase 1 |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Primary Purpose: Treatment |
Official Title: | A Phase I Study of Topotecan in Combination With Vinorelbine in Recurrent Lung Cancer |
- Maximum tolerated dose [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Response rate, stable disease rate, and time to progression by RECIST criteria on day 1 of each course [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Estimated Enrollment: | 36 |
Study Start Date: | February 2004 |
Study Completion Date: | January 2010 |
Primary Completion Date: | January 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
- Determine the maximum tolerated dose of topotecan when combined with vinorelbine ditartrate in patients with recurrent lung cancer.
- Assess the response and stable disease rates and the time to disease progression among treated patients.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of topotecan.
Patents receive vinorelbine ditartrate IV over 8-10 minutes and topotecan IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of topotecan until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which ≥ 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically.

When does the fixed-lag smoothing performance saturates?
Mirkin, Leonid and Meinsma, Gjerrit (2002) When does the fixed-lag smoothing performance saturates? In: 15th IFAC World Congress, 21-26 July 2002, Barcelona, Spain (pp. pp. 3002-3007).
Restricted to UT campus only : Request a copy 116kB |
Abstract: | A notable difference between the and smoothing is that the achievable performance in the latter problem might �saturate� as the function of the smoothing lag in the sense that there might exist a finite smoothing lag for which the achievable performance level is the same as for the infinite smoothing lag. In this note necessary and sufficient conditions under which such a saturation occurs are derived. In particular, it is shown that the performance saturates only if the norm of the optimal error system is achieved at the infinite frequency, i.e., if the worst case disturbance for the infinite smoothing lag case can be arbitrarily fast and thus in a sense unpredictable. |

Title: | On the Origin of the Band Structure Observed in the Collision-Induced Absorption Bands of CO2 |
Published: | April 01, 2003 |
Abstract: | A more complete analysis of the dimer structure observed on top of the collision-induced absorption bands of carbon dioxide is presented. The analysis treats the carbon dioxide dimer as an asymmetric rotor with a and b type infrared transitions and rotational constants similar to that observed in a molecular beam spectrum of the dimer, in contrast to a previous modeling which considered the dimer as a prolate symmetric rotor with a pure a-type infrared band. The analysis does not require invoking a large change in the C C bond length previously determined in the molecular beam study. |

Chief Kayisa Ndiweni explains his visit to Europe, including the heated argument with Foreign Secretary Owen that transpired."Telegram, Personal for Secretary—My K11," April 02, 1979, History and Public Policy Program Digital Archive, South African Archives, Department of Foreign Affairs, BTS 1/156/3/4.

Top Secret No K21 (K21) Personal for Secretary My K11 Chief Ndiweni (of UNFP) came to see me immediately after return from visit to Europe. Ndiweni explained that purpose of visit to London was to inform the British of danger of Civil War if the UNFP did not get enough votes in forthcoming elections which would immediately raise fear under Matabele of domination by the Shona. He also explained the UNFP's concept of federation in Rhodesia to Owen. Owen said he was not basically against a Federation but that it should be left to the people of Rhodesia to decide on that. Owen then applied pressure on him to pull out of the election with veiled promises of financial aid to promote the idea of federal government. Ndiweni reacted angrily to this and flatly refused to be used by Owen. He then listed a long range of Owen's failures criticising his policies towards Rhodesia, especially failure to find a solution. Owen lost his composure and said he would remind them that under no circumstances would he recognise the April elections. He added that he would not deal with any Government in which Smith had any say. Owen continued angrily, that after the elections he would then invite to an all party conference whom he Owen, wanted to, implying that Ndiweni would be left out. Ndiweni replied, "We shall have to see if you yourself are still around." Ndiweni apparently had successful discussions with reps of the Conservative party and made good contacts in Germany and one or two other countries which he would not disclose. He also had discussions with a number of Nkomo's aides in London and was much encouraged by those discussions that would be passed to the Ndebele to vote for Ndiweni. Ndiweni told me he was confident of getting at least 15 seats in the Zim/Rh parliament and possibly 26 if he could get sufficient financial support. His needs for the election are estimated 70,000 dollars and he indicated that he will get all that except for about 20,000 dollars which he would like to ask us for. As indicated in previous submissions strongly recommend assistance of about this figure. (even if could not get Ndiweni to see Minister.)

Frequently Asked Questions on FTAs Proposed Interim Provisions for the Public Transportation Safety Certification Training Program
Interim Provisions
1. Why is FTA developing an Interim Provisions for the Safety Certification Training Program?
Recognizing the need for immediate assistance with the development of the transit safety oversight workforce, MAP-21 requires FTA to move forward with developing interim provisions for training and certifying this workforce in advance of the rulemaking process. Therefore, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 5329(c)(2), FTA has developed interim provisions for the certification and training of designated Federal, State, and other designated personnel who conduct safety audits and examinations and transit system personnel with direct safety oversight responsibility.
2. I keep hearing about Safety Management Systems (SMS) from FTA; and now, Im seeing it in the Interim Provisions training, how exactly will SMS help transit? And, where can I learn more about it?
To help a safe industry stay safe and become even safer, FTA is adopting Safety Management Systems (SMS) as our new safety regulatory framework. With a focus on organization-wide safety policy, proactive hazard management, strong safety communication between front line employees and management, targeted safety training, and clear accountabilities and responsibilities for critical safety activities, SMS provides an enhanced structure for addressing expectations specified by Congress in the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21). SMS also provides dedicated tools and approaches to help FTA implement outstanding recommendations from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) regarding needed improvements in safety and oversight programs in both rail and bus modes. FTA has integrated various levels of SMS elements into the Interim Provisions to help a safe industry become even safer.
FTA has adopted Safety Management Systems (SMS) as our new safety regulatory framework. With a focus on organization-wide safety policy, formal methods for identifying hazards, controlling their potential consequences, continually assessing safety risk, and promoting an effective employee safety reporting system, SMS provides a new structure for addressing expectations specified by Congress in the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21). For more detailed information on how FTA plans on implementing SMS, go to the following link: FTA - Transit Safety and Oversight - Safety Management Systems (SMS)
3. How long do I have to complete the Interim Provisions Training? And, will the Interim Provisions coursework count toward the Final Public Transportation Safety Certification Training Program?
FTA proposes that participants of the interim safety certification training program have three years to complete the training requirements.
4. What is the difference between participants in the Interim Provisions for the Safety Certification Training Program and participants in the Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan?
The Interim Provisions covers Federal, State, and other designated personnel who conduct safety audits and examinations of public transportation agencies and transit system personnel with direct safety oversight responsibility.
There is another group of transit employees to be trained under the Transit Agency Safety Plan; this group does not have direct safety oversight responsibility. Public Transportation Agencies must develop a Public Transportation Safety Plan (transit agency safety plan) that is approved by the board of directors of the transit agency and certified by the recipient or the State. The participants in this plan will most likely be required to take training required by their individual transit agency. A critical element of SMS is safety awareness at all levels of an organization. FTA is developing a one-hour Safety Management System Awareness course that will have universal applicability throughout the public transportation industry. Therefore, FTA is also encouraging that transit system personnel at all levels voluntary participate in the one-hour SMS Awareness training as it becomes available.
5. Im from a small bus transportation agency and have direct responsibility for safety oversight; will I be required to complete the same requirements as an employee directly responsible for safety oversight at a large transit agency?
No, however, FTA has developed a proposed voluntary component in the Interim Provisions for the Safety Certification Training Program for employees who have direct responsibility for safety oversight of bus transit agencies.
6. I work in operations for a transit agency and I am directly responsible for safety. However, I dont seem to fit into the categories listed in the Federal Register Notice, should I participate in the Interim Provisions?
Initially, the interim training program will primarily focus on enhancing the technical competencies and capabilities of those persons responsible for direct safety oversight of rail fixed guideway public transportation systems (rail transit systems) and the Federal and State personnel who conduct safety audits of these systems. This approach recognizes the impact of recent bus and rail transit accidents and incidents that prompted the safety certification training requirements in MAP-21.1 However, many of the provisions of the interim program will also benefit personnel with bus safety oversight responsibilities; therefore, participation in applicable courses is encouraged.
7. How much of the formula funds can be used for training?
Recipients of sections 5307 or 5311 funds may use up to 0.5 percent of those funds to cover up to 80 percent of the cost of participation by an employee who has direct safety oversight responsibility for the public transportation system. Likewise, participation by SSOA personnel with direct safety oversight responsibilities will be an eligible expense for section 5329(e)(6)(A) funds.
8. I have already received my Transit Safety and Security Program (TSSP) Certificate from the Transportation Safety Institute (TSI); will I get credit for taking the TSSP Certificate courses for the Interim Provisions, and how is the TSSP different from the curriculum in the interim training program?
FTA proposes interim program coursework which contains different competencies than those in the TSSP. Therefore, FTA proposes that no credit will be transferred from prior education or experience into the interim program. More specifically, the current TSSP program was designed to address competencies that support the development and implementation of system safety, security, and emergency management program plans. The proposed interim program promotes the development, implementation and oversight of SMS safety policies, risk management, safety assurance, and safety promotion programs and initiatives through the effective use of SMS tools and techniques.
The objectives within the SMS curriculum were built from FTAs proposed SMS framework which uses a different approach to identifying hazards and controlling their potential consequences, continual assessment of safety risk, and an effective employee safety reporting system.
9. What happens next and how can I stay involved in this process?
FTA has published proposed interim provisions for comment. For the interim provisions, please visit the Federal Register Notice (PDF). Please provide FTA with your comments at Regulations.gov. FTA requests comments by and will accept comments to the extent possible after that date.
After FTA reviews the comments collected through this notice, FTA may publish a subsequent notice indicating any substantive revisions that may be warranted based on public comment. In the alternative, should public comments indicate that no substantive revisions are necessary, FTA will publish guidance for implementing the requirements noted in the Federal Register.
After the interim provisions are in place, FTA will prepare a Public Transportation Certification Training Program, which will be established by regulation. Regulations are developed in two major steps a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and a Final Rule. FTA will share each in the Federal Register with an opportunity for public comment.
10. Where can I go for more information about MAP-21?

Wikileaks Founder Calls Internet A 'Spying Machine'
In a rare public speaking appearance, Wikileaks founder Julian Assange told students at Cambridge University that he believed the Internet was "the greatest spying machine the world has ever seen" and that it could be, in AFP's words, "an obstacle to free speech."
The 39-year-old Assange "acknowledged that the web could allow greater government transparency and better co-operation between activists," Guardian reporter Patrick Kingsley wrote on Tuesday, "but said it gave authorities their best ever opportunity to monitor and catch dissidents."
While the Australian Wikileaks founder said that the World Wide Web "has in some ways an ability to let us know to an unprecedented level what government is doing, and to let us co-operate with each other to hold repressive governments and repressive corporations to account," it could also be used by those same government officials and corporations for espionage.
"It [the web] is not a technology that favors freedom of speech. It is not a technology that favors human rights. It is not a technology that favors civil life. Rather it is a technology that can be used to set up a totalitarian spying regime, the likes of which we have never seen," Assange said, according to Kingsley. "Or, on the other hand, taken by us, taken by activists, and taken by all those who want a different trajectory for the technological world, it can be something we all hope for."
Furthermore, in his speech to the Cambridge Union Society, Assange downplayed the role that Facebook and Twitter played in recent Middle Eastern uprisings, and said, according to BBC News, that al-Jazeera and the diplomatic cables released by his own website played a much greater role.
"The Tunisian cables showed clearly that if it came down to it, the US, if it came down to a fight between the military on the one hand, and [President Zine al-Abidine] Ben Ali's political regime on the other, the US would probably support the military," he said, according to information originally published by Reuters and reprinted by BBC News.
Likewise, he said that those documents made it difficult "for the US to support a key Egyptian regime figure" while tensions were escalating against former President Hosni Mubarak.
"Yes [Twitter and Facebook] did play a part, although not nearly as large a part as al-Jazeera. But the guide produced by Egyptian revolutionaries "¦ says on the first page, 'Do not use Facebook and Twitter', and says on the last page, 'Do not use Facebook and Twitter'," Kingsley wrote.
The reason for that was very simple, claims Assange.
"There was actually a Facebook revolt in Cairo three or four years ago," he said, according to AFP. "It was very small… After it, Facebook was used to round up all the principal participants and they were then beaten, interrogated and incarcerated."
According to the BBC, 800 students were in attendance at the event.

Great value!
By BeccaLou
from Edmonton
I have owned a Vitamix (which came with the larger/taller container and the dry container) for one year now. I use it daily and I would highly recommend this product. I purchased this smaller container for when I make 1 person smoothies and especially for dips/hummus. I find it easier to scoop thicker substances out of this container, vs. the much taller version. It's also nice to have both for when I'm really cooking up a storm and needing them both. Highly recommend this product!! Money WELL SPENT.

Vitamix - an exceptional product
By CAT
from Saskatoon
Vitamix products are at the top of their class and worth the investment. My Vitamix includes the regular sized(64 oz)container and the dry container.I wanted the smaller (48 oz) wet container as it is large enough to mix a smoothie and small enough to fit under my kitchen cabinets. Thanks to the Shopping Channel for providing a comparable price point to other retailers and the advantage of easy pay. The easy pay offer made the purchase affordable.

Detroit's Belle Isle Park getting "Penske perfect" ahead of Grand Prix weekend
May 11, 2014, 5:45 PM EDT
After the Verizon IndyCar Series completes its Month of May at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway with the 98th Indianapolis 500 on May 25, it will head to Detroit's Belle Isle Park for the first doubleheader event of the season (May 31-June 1).
And while team owner Roger Penske is now setting his sights on a 16th Indianapolis 500 victory, he's also been helping with final preparations for the Chevrolet Detroit Belle Isle Grand Prix, which will feature the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship and the Pirelli World Challenge in addition to the IndyCars.
His corporation helped bring big-time auto racing back to the Motor City by reviving the Belle Isle race in 2012, and Penske has been working hard to make the race a prestigious event for the entire region.
"I want to get an "A,' " Penske said recently to Crain's Detroit Business. "We're all working together and take this very seriously, because you can't practice this, so we're doing it in a way that our organization can deliver, and people trust that."
Last year's doubleheader on Belle Isle saw a sizable increase in attendance across the entire weekend, both in the grandstands and in the corporate suites. It also generated more than $1 million worth of new spending.
As for 2014, it looks like Penske and his Belle Isle team may be on course for an even bigger hit.
Crain's reporter Dustin Walsh writes that this year's Grand Prix will have 17 corporate chalets along the last straightaway on the 2.3-mile course – and all of them are sold out.
Additionally, despite a price jump, ticket sales are tracking ahead of last year's event. More than 100,000 fans are expected to vist Belle Isle during the Grand Prix weekend.
Crews have also been busy creating new amenities such as paved walkways around the grandstands and a new bridge over the track that will connect the aforementioned chalets with the paddock areas.
"For us to create a successful event, we have to create access," Penske told Crain's. "The stick-and-ball sports can't offer access like we can, so we are taking advantage of it."
- Jeff - May 11, 2014 at 8:23 PM
Yet more IndyCar "news" that caters to Penske, which is also sponsored by the series' title sponsor, and yet more IndyCar "news" that caters to road- or street-courses.
- testover6370 - May 12, 2014 at 12:26 PM
How much money have you spent on tickets to oval events?
- Jeff - May 12, 2014 at 6:22 PM
More than you.
- techmeister1 - May 12, 2014 at 11:43 AM
Actually Penske is a pretty good sponsor and goes above and beyond IMO. More people/companies like his would help the sport and race venues.

I am so proud to announce that I am now an Ambassador for Delta Labs ! I originally found out about the Delta Labs products when I met Debbie, the founder and president, at the #NextLevelNYC event in NYC with Danny-J and Bex. I was able to get to know Debbie and her company better while we were there and I also received a bottle of the Hair, Skin and Nail Formula in our giveaway bag. Later when I came home, I realized that I forgot to ask if the other products were soy-free so I emailed Debbie. She told me that all of the products were soy free except for the menopause formula. This was very exciting for me because as you know most supplement products on the shelves these days like to sneak soy into their products which is completely unnecessary! After our conversation, Debbie was so sweet to send me the Detox , Green Tea and the Acai formulas to try as well! I fell in love with all three products and especially loved the Green Tea and Acai formulas to give me an energy boost during my workouts.
As I got more familiar with the company I started appreciating them for other reasons such as they are a women owned and operated company, they are local to NY, they create quality natural and affordable products for just us ladies, AND they also send return labels with every order so that you can send back and recycle your old unused bottle in return for a $5 off your next order! So when I was contacted about being an Ambassador for Delta Labs, I was thrilled because I was already such a believer in their products!
To kick off my new Ambassadorship I received an amazing swag bag which was an actual Delta Labs gym bag and inside was bottle of the Resveratrol which is an antioxidant from red wine, two Ambassador tank tops in black and white, a brush/mirror/pill holder compact {awesome!}, a nail file and 5 samples of the Hair, Skin and Nail formula to give to 5 lucky readers this week!

But you could write a custom get_capabilities method such as: It is a bit of work getting around the single primary key limitation of Class::DBI but IMHO well worth it. NOTE: I think all the code is correct as given but I could be drastically wrong as it is late on a Friday afternoon.

by Geoffrey Ciani - This weeks 104th edition of On the Ropes Boxing Radio featured an exclusive interview with reigning IBF light heavyweight champion of the world Tavoris Cloud (21-0, 18 KOs), who is scheduled to defend his title against Fulgencio Zuniga (24-4-1, 21 KOs) today, December 17 at the American Airlines Arena in Miami, Florida. Cloud spoke about his upcoming fight and always shared his opinions on other topics including Hopkins-Pascal, Chad Dawson, Carl Froch, and more! Here is what he had to say: On what he expects when he faces Fulgencio Zuniga: Oh, Im expecting a good fight. Were well prepared. Im just expecting a good fight and Im going to go out there and perform for the crowd and give them what they want to see. His response to criticisms that Fulgencio Zuniga is not worthy of a title shot: I think Zuniga is a good opponent, a worthy opponent, and Im not taking him lightly and Im not looking down on him as an opponent. Thats their opinion, but Im definitely not looking down on him as an opponent. Im taking him seriously, and hey, the man is dangerous. He has twenty-one knockouts so lets get in there and mix it up regardless of what anybody has to say. On how his training preparations have gone for this fight: Training camp has been great. Im back down in Miami training. Im in great shape ready for whatever comes my way. December 17 Im looking to put on another great show, and hopefully after this we can go ahead and get a bigger fight. His views on the upcoming WBC light heavyweight title fight between Jean Pascal and challenger Bernard Hopkins: Im hoping that, well Im rooting for the younger guy Pascal to win the fight and hopefully me and him can have a unification, not only for the titles but of youth, somewhere in the near future in 2011. On whether he believes it would be bad for boxing if Bernard Hopkins beat Jean Pascal given Hopkins age: No. I mean if he can win the fight, he can win the fight. The best man will always win, and if at 45 years old he can win the championship. He has a chance at winning. I believe Hopkins has a chance at winning but Im still rooting for Pascal. If he wins then he just wins. His views on Glen Johnsons knockout victory against Allan Green in the Super Six: Well you know I actually thought that moving down in weight would hurt Glen Johnson, but it didnt in this particular fight. He looked good. He went down and got the knockout. Hey, Glen Johnson is a good fighter. He is very determined. Hes a solid fighter and more power to him. Good for Glen Johnson. On whether he was surprised that Chad Dawson lost against Jean Pascal: You know Im never surprised at what happens in boxing because I know as a fighter that anything can happen inside that ring and its just a sport where anything can happen. Any time two men get inside this ring anything can happen. His views on Super Six favorites Andre Ward and Carl Froch as potential future opponents in the light heavyweight division: Yeah, I mean if those guys move up I would love to fight. I would love to fight Froch more than anything. Hopefully we can make these fights when we start having unification bouts and the 168 pounders start moving up. The IBF title will always be up for grabs. The only thing they got to do is come take it from me. On whether he would still potentially be interested in a match against Chad Dawson: Number one about Chad Dawson, is right now I dont believe I can fight Chad Dawson because hes not in the world rankings. If I fight him for the IBF title, even if I lose my title, so I dont believe I can even fight Chad Dawson as of right now for a title defense or anything like that. As of right now it just doesnt make sense to fight Chad Dawson. You know maybe if he gets his title back or gets any kind of title we can lock up and do what were supposed to do. His views on a potential fight against Jean Pascal if he were to defeat Bernard Hopkins: I know Id come out with a victory. Thats all I would say. It wouldnt be a game of tag like the last fight he had. I wouldnt put the people through that, but I assume that it would be an action-packed from start to finish. There wouldnt be any running or ducking on my behalf. Id just go in there and do what I got to do and get out. On whether he believes he will ever move up to compete in the cruiserweight division: In t he future, I more than likely will move up, but as long as I can make 175 Im going to make it. Ive been at this division my whole entire boxing career and Im not planning on going anywhere any time soon. On how active he plans to be in 2011: Well I plan to be as busy as I can possibly be. I at least want to have two fights a year and if everything goes right, even more. Lets have three fights a year. Lets have four fights a year. If they want to start unifying titles, if we start getting the big fights, I mean hey lets live. Lets do it! Lets go on a spree. Lets go on a belt-grabbing spree. Lets fight every three months. Lets do it. Im with it. On whether he is at all disappointed that this fight is not being broadcast on American television: I mean its sad that this fight wont have major television coverage because its going to be a great fight. Its going to be a great performance. But does it bother me? Does it affect me as a person? No. I just have to go in there and do what I have to do regardless of whether its on the big screen or not.
