An eight-year-old boy was struck and injured last month by a vehicle in the street outside his Opp home. The incident prompted the child's grandmother to organize a petition drive to crack down on speeders.
One could say Billy Ray Grimes is a "lucky" eight-year-old. Last month, the boy received minor injuries after being struck by a car while he tried to cross West Hart Avenue.
"Then I got half way across the street and was hit there," said Grimes.
However, the boy's grandmother, Pat Coon, says Billy Ray is the latest victim of speeders flying down West Hart Avenue. She gathered 160 signatures from residents in several nearby neighborhoods asking for city officials to address the problem.
"The speeders are constantly. No particular time. It's all day, and all night. Something has to be done about it. My grandson was hit. It'll have to take a child or an adult to get killed," said Coon.
West Hart Avenue resident Cassandra Blue said, "The way they tear down the street and speed. They can run over our children by hitting them on the front lawn. It'll take about a child or an adult getting killed."
In addition to petitions, Coon is talking to people about the speeding problems.
"My foot was on the curve and was hit there. I went about five feet into the air following the collision," said Steve Tate.
City officials confirm that they will soon install speed bumps on West Hart Avenue to help slow down traffic.
Besides the speed bumps, Opp police say they've increased road patrols, but officials say the problem with speeders has gotten worse across the entire city.

When I am a little girl,
I always looked at the sky above.
Thinking what the stars are?
Why it is shine?
Every night before I sleep,
I look outside the window.
Counting how many stars shines through,
How I wish, I reach them, too.
As the days goes by,
I can't stop dre...
I can't forget you, no! I can't
I could move strongly
When I lost in my journey
I can change my path.
Then, I have few words of tenderness
Just for you to say
I can't forget you, I can't.
My first love
My first dream comes with you

A lovely warm summer day on the beach at the base of the cliffs of Cape Blomidon, on the Bay of Fundy shore of Nova Scotia, Canada. While I was wandering around doing my beach-combing, Jann found this old piece of tree trunk was perfectly suited for a quick nap in the sun. Flotsam like this comes in all shapes and sizes, but seldom do you find one that seems to be created for such a useful purpose- backrest, footrest, just the right angle for comfortable back support!
The water is Minas Basin, a large inlet of the world-famous Bay of Fundy, site of the highest tides in the world. This area is all part of Blomidon Provincial Park, with campgrounds,picnic areas, miles of hiking trails and wonderful views of cliffs,headlands,forests and the open sea.

Lovely shot, George. What a convenient resting place for a piece of driftwood!
Thanks again Mike, another piece of just plain luck! You'd search for years and never find a piece of flotsam that had exactly the right characteristics ! We climbed down the cliff and there it was, just waiting :)

Hi Patty..thanks very much..Jann just sent a reply to Estes on her own site and when we switched over it was a really nice surprise to see her in this feature! We're both glad you liked it :)

Varsity dons foreign trip put off Chandigarh, July 17 The team was to visit Australia, the USA and the U.K. The ostensibe purpose was to explore the possibility of signing formal agreements with James Cook University, Australia, and San Jose State University, San Fransisco, California, USA, for collaboration between these universities and Kurukshetra University. The MoUs were earlier signed between Kurukshetra University and the foreign universities in September, 2001, and March, 2003, respectively. The foreign universities and Kurukshetra University were to collaborate in hi-tech areas like management, computer sciences and electronics. The team, to be headed by the Secretary, Education, Mr M.L. Tayal, would have included the Vice-Chancellor, Kurukshetra University, Mr A.K. Chawla, his wife; Mr K.K. Kathuria, Director, Public Relations of the university, Mr Dinesh Kumar, Reader, Electronics, KU; Mr Shashi Ranjan Parmar, INLD MLA from Mundhal Khurd in Bhiwani district; and Prof Teja Singh, Chairman of the High-Power Committee on the 20-Point Programme. The constitution of the team had raised many an eyebrow. The university had ignored senior professors in favour of relatively junior teachers. Since the visit was to tie up agreements for collaboration in hi-tech area, teachers of subjects like botany, zoology or English, sceptics were of the view, would not have served the purpose of the visit. The sceptics pointed out that the team should have included eminent professors like Dr P.J. George(Electronics), Dr R.S. Dwivedi(Management) or Dr S.L. Gupta(Management), if the purpose of the visit was intended to be serious. The team was also to visit Cambridge and Oxford Universities in the U.K. |
Rules for judicial officers selection may be
relaxed Chandigarh, July 17 It was now being proposed to do away with the clause relating to the minimum three years professional experience. The proposal, which was expected to be endorsed in tomorrows meeting, would pave the way for recruitment of fresh law graduates as judicial officers. Justifying the step, an official said the move was in tandem with the recommendations made by the Sethi Commission as well as a Supreme Court order in a related case. The sources said the Cabinet would also examine four proposals from the Home Department, including one related to the changing of a rule governing the Home Guards and Civil Defence Department. The Cabinet would also examine proposals regarding transfer and acquisition of land. The Cabinet would also take up the issue of constitution of a board for controlling temples situated at Kurukshetra. Earlier, the Urban Development Department, the nodal department preparing the proposal, had wanted to bring an ordinance for creation of such a board. However, the Chief Minister turned down the move and asked the Urban Development Department to prepare a bill for the constitution of a Kurukshetra shrine board. |
Lecturers pin hopes on Cabinet meeting Chandigarh, July 17 The lecturers hope that the Cabinet, which is likely to consider a proposal for regularising the services of a large number of Class III and Class IV employees working on the ad hoc basis, will also consider their case sympathetically. In 1989, when the Janata Dal, the then incarnation of the Indian National Lok Dal was in power in Haryana, had decided to regularise the services of ad hoc lecturers. However, the decision could not be implemented by the Janata Dal Government, perhaps because it faced political instability in the state after the party supremo, Mr Devi Lal, joined national politics. During those years the state had witnessed a quick succession of Chief Ministers. It was left to the Bhajan Lal Government to implement the decision taken by the Janata Dal Government regarding the regularisation of the lecturers. The Congress Government regularised the services of about 175 college lecturers with effect from December 31, 1990. The ad hoc college lecturers hope that this time the Chautala Government would like to take the credit for regularising their services itself. A delegation of the lecturers recently met the INLD MLA from Rori, Mr Abhey Singh Chautala, the younger son of the Chief Minister, to press their demand. |
Bridges that may fetch brides Khol Fatehsinghpora/Khol Mola (Pinjore), July 17 These bridges of hope as the villagers have now begun calling them, will bring a fresh lease of life for almost 800 residents settled in the two villages. It will not just mean a change in the social mileau it will change the life of these villagers by providing at least the basic amenities of modernisation. A large number of bachelors in these villagers can now hope for a bride, over hundred children can now think of taking education from the next academic session, when the bridge will allow them to go to schools located on the mainland, and, residents can hope for medical aid available only across the river. The foundation stones for both the bridges were laid today by Mr Abhey Singh Chautala, son of Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala. Because these villages have remained cut off from the mainland and are inaccessible in the monsoons when the river swells, a large number of men in these villages have failed to find a bride for themselves. No one wants to marry his/her daughter in these villages. Only if people are very poor, they will marry their girls here only because they do not have to give dowry, says Lambardar Bachchan Singh of Khol Fateh
Singhpora. As a result, there are a large number of bachelors in these two hamlets, especially since the residents prefer to marry their own girls in villages across the river. Though located a mere 6 km from the National Highway 21 A (Pinjore- Nalagarh highway), even the basic amenities have eluded these villages located on the lower
Shivaliks. None of these villages have a telephone, there is no government high school, nearest medical help is about 20 km away-either in Pinjore on the one side, or the PGI, Chandigarh on the other side. Says Mrs. Bagson Kaur, a resident of Khol
Mola, Sick patients have to be carried on cots to the hospital. There have been several instances when the sick people have died while being taken to the hospitals, and pregnant women have delivered on the way to the hospital. Though there is a middle school in Khol Mola and branch of this school upto primary level is located in Khol
Fatehsinghpora, the girls of Khol Fatehsinghpora have to leave studies after Class V. Says former sarpanch, Kabal Singh, How can girls cross the river and go to the school? The way to the Government Middle school in Khol Mola is also through a dense jungle, so we cannot let them study further. So it is only the boys of the village who can have education, but that too, up to high school. In fact, the most highly educated youth of this village is Kulwinder Singh, who is now studying in Government Senior Secondary School,
Nanakpur. Being cut off from the mainland, the villagers have not seen a bus or any other public transport here. In fact, till two months ago, the only way to reach these villages was by foot, through a rough tract along a
choe. Even the ration for these villages is brought from the mainland, loaded on camels, once a month. A road is now being laid on both sides of the river, to Khol
Fatehsinghpora. While the stretch of road from NH 21-A to one side of the river has been completed, the stretch of road across the river is partially completed. The villagers say that the politicians meet them only during the election time, when they have to seek for votes. Last time, we had threatened to boycott the elections and subsequently, the government had decided to lay the road, informs Prem Singh of Khol
Mola. |
Farmers to begin karza mukti agitation soon Jind, July 17 He said adequate funds had not been given for research in the agriculture sector and the government had not implemented land-reform policies, but allowed foreign companies to purchase land in India. Mr Duli Chand was speaking at the conclusion of a two-day state-level convention organised by the sabha. Mr Phool Singh Sheokand, state president of the Kisan Sabha, presided over the convention. Mr Lamber Singh Tangar, general secretary of the Kisan Sabha, Punjab said despite the top position of Punjab in agricultural at production, a large number of farmers of Punjab were under debt. |
Probe widows charges, SP told Ambala, July 17 The complainant Ms Geeta Anand, has stated in her complaint that her husband, Promod Anand, had been working in a finance company located in Baldevnagar, Ambala City. She has alleged that some officers of the company had been indulging in unfair business activities and her husband used to oppose that. On January 14, while her husband was going to his office, he disclosed to her that some of his colleagues were threatening him of dire consequences. On the same day, at noon, she got a message from her husbands office that he had suddenly fallen ill and had been admitted to the local Civil Hospital. She said when she reached the hospital, her husband was in a very serious condition and he was uttering the words Rs 85,000 and Gambhir. In the meantime, on the advice of doctors, he was shifted to the Military Hospital, Ambala Cantonment, where he died. Later, doctors said that the cause of his death could be consumption of poison. Ms Geeta Anand has expressed suspicion that some of her husbands colleagues might have forcibly given him some poisonous substance. She has stated in the complaint that she approached the Baldevnagar police, but the police official did not even register a case in that regard. Later, she approached the SP, Ambala, who listened to her patiently and marked the inquiry into the case to the DSP, Mr Uday Shankar. She said the DSP visited her house and recorded her statement, but since then no action against the accused had been taken. She has stated that she has a physically challenged son and two unmarried daughters to look after. Moreover, she has no means of livelihood. She has demanded that the inquiry into the case should he handed over to the CBI so that she could get justice. She has also sent a complaint letter to the Chief Justice of India. |
Partap Singh seeks CBI probe into FCI scam Rohtak, July 17 The money was withdrawn from the FCIs account with the SBI by a contractor Jaswant Singh through four cheques. Addressing a press conference here today, Mr Pratap Singh released a copy of the letter dated July 2, 2003, written by him to the Union Agriculture Minister Rajnath Singh, a copy of which, according to him, had also been sent to the Union Finance Minister Jaswant Singh. Mr Pratap Singh alleged that four blank cheques were mysteriously stolen from a cheque book of the FCI, Sirsa branch, in May this year. Contractor Jaswant Singh, a resident of Chatargarh Patti in Sirsa district who had opened an account in the name of Jaswant and Company in the main branch of the SBI in Sirsa about three months ago, allegedly withdrew about Rs 64 lakh from the FCI, Sirsa branch, through three of the four cheques which had been removed from an FCI cheque book, he said, adding that one of these cheques amounting to Rs 3.95 lakh was deposited in the bank account of the firm. which had no business dealings with the FCI. Senior FCI officials did not act promptly in the matter and there was delay in intimating the SBI about the four cheques which had gone missing from the FCI cheque book, he alleged, adding that the FCI Assistant Manager Krishan Chand lodged an FIR at the Sirsa city police station in this regard a week of the incident.
Army men set out on motorcycle rally Ambala, July 17 The rally is being organised by 108 Medium Regiment. The regiment has the distinction of being the first artillery regiment to have been awarded the Chief of Army Staff unit citation for display of indomitable resolve, valour and exemplary performance during Operation Vijay in Drass sector. The unit delivered accurate and devastating fire from its Bofors guns causing heavy damage and casualties to the enemy and evicted them from their positions. Naib Subedar Nageshwar Mahto sacrificed his life during the war. Thirteen personnel of the regiment were decorated with gallantry awards for their valour during the war. The
motorcycle rally was flagged off by Brig K.S. Sethi. The rally comprises two officers, two junior commissioned officers and 10 jawans riding on 10
motorcycles. The team will cover a distance of around 3,000 km. It will culminate at Tiger Hill to coincide with Vijay Divas celebrations. Major Amitabh Roy will lead the rally.
CBI chief recalls
Ambala days Ambala, July 17 Talking to Chandigarh Tribune on Wednesday , Mr Sharma said he hailed from Fatehgarh village in Ambala. I belong to Ambala. I did my schooling up to class VIII from the school in my village. After that I did my matriculation from
Jatwar, he said. I used to walk or cycle down to Jatwar from my village, he added. Wearing a yellow T-shirt and trousers, the CBI director said after his schooling in village, he moved to Ambala city. I did my graduation from DAV College. I studied BA honours English. Then I went to Kurukshetra University to do my MA in English, he stated. After completing his education, Mr Sharma took up a lecturers job at DAV college, Ambala city. Then he taught English at SA Jain college, Ambala City before going to Nehru Memorial College in Mansa. Mr Sharma spoke about his love for The Tribune. I was always fond of reading The Tribune. As a matter of fact, The Tribune was not subscribed in our village. But, in a neighbouring village Dr Nand Kishore used to get The Tribune copy, he said. So, I used to take the copy of The Tribune from him and read it. I used to read The Tribune even if it was a day old, he stated. Even after joining the Indian Police Service in 1966, Mr PC Sharma continued to read The Tribune. He is from the Assam cadre. I used to subscribe to the The Tribune at Mount Abu and also in Assam. I used to read The Tribune for the good language, he said. Mr Sharma said he used to love reading Mr Prem Bhatias column. I still remember Mr Prem Bhatias editorial `Slap in Indias Face. We also visited the The Tribune office in Ambala cantt to see how a newspaper is printed, he reminisced. He said that he belongs to an agriculturist family. My father and my grandfather always laid stress on quality education. Even though my grandfather did not have formal education, he always said that children must have good education. My father, Mr Keshav Ram Sharma, encouraged me to dream big and never make compromises with education, he said. In those days, the teachers did a remarkable job of inculcating values among the students. They would have a broad vision and teach to know more beyond self, he said. I remember I had a teacher Mr Mohan Lal. He used to tell us to do a good deed everyday, he added. Recalling his school days, Mr Sharma said that while studying in a village school, he never got opportunity for sports. I used to walk or cycle to attend school. Later, while studying in DAV College, Ambala city, I used to reside in
Panjokhra. I used to like volleyball and badminton. But, they were not serious pursuits, he said. Mr Sharma said that he was always into academics. My hobby was and still is reading. I am a voracious reader. Also, I am fond of old films. During my studies days, I would watch the movie whenever I would have a little spare money, he said. The favourite actress of Mr Sharma is Madhubala and the favourite actor is Dev Anand. I continue to love old songs and old movies. But my wife has a better knowledge of the oldies, he added. Talking about his work as the CBI chief, Mr Sharma said that he has always faced challenges with confidence. I have witnessed turbulent times in Assam. I have spent long years in the CBI. There are challenges but it is a satisying profession. There is a general perception that CBI is only for catching people, he said. The CBI is playing a significant role in identifying corrupt elements. However, we do that without any spirit of vendetta. We do that with a spirit of idealism. The CBI is definitely playing a crucial role in the criminal justice system, Mr Sharma said. With a smile, Mr Sharma said he managed to keep tension at bay by undertaking his tough job with a degree of detachment. Happiness should not be found only in the job. There are hobbies and family in which a person can find happiness, he said. I am keen to do certain things for my village. I am keen that the medical facilities improve, there is improvement in the school and the dharamshala is repaired. I am happy to meet old friends, he said. |
Give incentives to rice mills, says Hooda Chandigarh, July 17 In a statement issued here today, Mr Hooda said while Punjab had given several incentives to rice mills, the Haryana Government had imposed several taxes on rice millers, which had forced them to shift to other states. He said in Haryana the rice millers had to pay 2 per cent sale and purchase tax whereas no such taxes were being charged in Punjab. Mr Hooda said on the one hand Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala was spending a huge sum of money on his foreign visits to woo industrialists and on the other the already established industry was being forced to shift outside the state due to the wrong policies of the government. He claimed that more than 300 rice mills had either closed in Haryana or had shifted outside the state. He said the Chautala Government should give some special incentives to the rice mills. |

Quote: KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 26 (Bernama) -- The Boeing Company's first production CH-47F Chinook helicopter has successfully completed its first flight on Oct. 23 from its Rotorcraft Systems facility in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania. Testers there evaluated the aircraft's systems and structural performance. Boeing will deliver the new CH-47F to the U.S. Army for operational testing before being deployed in 2007. After conducting the flight, Boeing test pilot Erik Kocher said, "The U.S. Army will have the most advanced, mission-capable heavy lift helicopter in the world. The CH-47F will provide crews with configurable flight displays for more efficient mission performance and a communications suite for greater situational awareness. "The digital automatic flight control system will provide an enhanced and safer low speed flight capability, and the airframe enhancements will yield a safer and more reliable combat system." The same cockpit system installed on the CH-47F and MH-47G Special Operations Chinooks will be used in the HH-47 proposed in the U.S. Air Force Combat Search and Rescue program and will include terrain following/terrain avoiding radar and an integrated forward looking infrared system for nap-of-the-earth and low-level flight operations in reduced visibility conditions. http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v3/news_lite.php?id=226412

Summary: On Cell Complexities in Hyperplane Arrangements # Boris Aronov + Micha Sharir # July 14, 2003 Abstract We derive improved bounds on the complexity, i.e., the total number of faces of all dimen sions, of many cells in arrangements of hyperplanes in higher dimensions, and use these bounds to obtain a very simple proof of an earlier bound, due to Aronov, Matouźsek, and Sharir, on the sum of squares of cell complexities in such an arrangement. 1 Complexity of Many Cells In this note we consider collections of cells in arrangements of hyperplanes in ddimensional space. The complexity of a cell is the total number of faces of all dimensions appearing on its boundary. The complexity of a collection of cells is the sum of the complexities of its members. The main goal is to derive sharp bounds on the maximum complexity of any collection of m arbitrary distinct cells in an arrangement of n hyperplanes in R d . For more extensive background on the ``many cells'' problem considered in this paper, see [8, 12]. A variety of bounds have been derived in [1, 4,5,7,10,11]. The problem has also been extended to the case of many cells in arrangements of curves or surfaces; see, e.g., [2, 3, 7, 9]. The main result of the paper improves upon the previous bound O(m 1/2 n d/2 log (#d/2#-1)/2 n) given in [4]: Theorem 1.1. The complexity of m distinct cells in an arrangement of n hyperplanes in d di

#29: New! Apology phone line now activated
July 12, 2010
Mission #30 begins with this short video about (and titled) Kindness:
Some of you may have seen that before; many have not. But I wanted to share it again here because:
a) I think the Toronto-based design group Thought Bubble did such an amazing job bringing that essay to life. And
b) it is the bridge that lead me, Mark and Corey (more on Mark and Corey later) to a talk about the "underbelly" of kindness. What I mean by that is, what about the times when you just can't rally your Better Self and you find yourself being kind of...not kind?
Not-kindness comes in so many flavors. A passive-aggressive comment to a relative. A rude bark to customer service from behind the safety shield of your phone. An envy-induced jab to a co-worker. Or take it back a couple decades to a memory that haunts you of full-on, unmitigated middle school meanness.
Which is why Mission Amy K.R. has set up an Anonymous Apology Line.
Call 312-948-4662 and put your apology out there. We believe that act alone will have many positive, healing ripples.
Feel free to also use the comment section if a public apology feels like the right thing for you. Conversely, if you've been wanting to apologize to someone directly for a long time, perhaps use the momentum of this week's mission to actually reach out to that individual through a letter, phone call, or face-to-face encounter.
Yes, absolutely, let's all keep on with the random acts of kindness. But let's also practice purposeful acts of making amends.

COLUMBIA — Police are seeking two men in connection with an attempted home invasion robbery that occurred Wednesday morning in the 1300 block of Hickam Drive, a news release from the Columbia Police Department stated.
After investigating the attempted robbery, police also found about one pound of marijuana in the backyard of the victim's home, a second release stated.
According to the release, at 10:47 a.m. the victim, a 42-year-old man, told police that while inside his home, two men with guns broke through his back door and then bound him with duct tape. The men then ransacked his home looking for money during which one of the men kicked the victim in the face resulting in a cut, the release stated. The men then fled the home.
Police attempted to track the men with a dog but the dog instead found approximately one pound of marijuana buried in the backyard, the release stated.
In a later release at 3:15 p.m., a search warrant was obtained and the house was searched. A small quantity of marijuana and drug paraphernalia was seized inside the house and from a vehicle on the property.
Investigators continue to work on identifying the owners of the marijuana and the intruders.
Information related to the incident may be submitted on the Crime Stoppers Web site, 875tips.com, or by calling 875-8577.

FAYETTE — Philip McMahan and the Harrisburg faithful erupted when the Bulldogs' Roscoe Roland broke free for a first down and the first big play in the school's history.
Roland received a pass from quarterback Blake Williams, juked a Fayette defender and sped down the near sideline before being pushed out of bounds close to the end zone. It was the Bulldogs' first football contest, and it was the first time Harrisburg fans got loud.
They got louder on the next play, when Drew Ewens drove through the line and into the end zone, scoring the first ever touchdown against an opposing team in Bulldog history.
The touchdown briefly interrupted 1-year-old Victoria McMahan's meal of Beechnut Bananas baby food. Victoria's mother, Kathy McMahan, fed her as she watched the game and filled out a sign-up sheet that asked for volunteers to make pre-game snack bags.
"There's not that many kids," she said, explaining how their section of fans knew who each player was, even from their distant vantage point in the stands.
Philip McMahan agreed: "It's a tight-knit community," he said. "Everybody knows everybody."
The McMahans and their tight-knit community filled two sections of the stadium at Central Methodist University. They came to watch their son, Tyler, and the rest of the Bulldogs scrimmage Fayette, Slater and Summit Christian Academy in the school's first ever football jamboree. It was a night of many firsts for the football team and the fans, and it was a night that showcased the pride of a small community rallying around its team.
The Harrisburg fans traveled well and showed out. Several little girls wore red pompoms in their hair, and most of the fans dressed in red. While there were a lot of Bulldog basketball shirts — Harrisburg is known for its prep basketball — there were also a lot of new Harrisburg football shirts.
Lisa Baker, wearing a "Dawgs Gone Bad" T-shirt, explained the football fanfare: "This has been a long time coming," she said. "The whole community has wanted to see this for a while. It's awesome to see them out there."
Baker's son Jeffrey was on the sideline for the game, having fractured his arm in two places during practice. But he was dressed in his new uniform, and he and the rest of the Bulldogs looked smart in their new get-ups.
"I wish I was out there," he said. "For being our first football game and against varsity teams, they did great."
Not everything was great, though. In addition to scoring their first touchdown, the Bulldogs were also scored on for the first time. It came quickly. On the second play of the first series, the Fayette quarterback kept the ball on an option and sprinted into the end zone untouched.
"It just got real," Harrisburg athletic director Doug Fessler remarked as the Fayette player trotted in for the score.
There was the first penalty and the first blown coverage. There was also the first injury. A Bulldog player who suffered a stinger — and who held it together through the rest of the scrimmage — finally broke down after the team's closing huddle, clinging to head coach Travis Kinkade.
While the Bulldogs showed their inexperience, they played with class and resilience. Their fans showed the same class, congratulating opposing players and fans and enjoying the opportunity to watch football.
"This community and these kids are motivated to do whatever it takes to make football work," Lisa Baker said.
Philip McMahon's face said it all as he watched the kids out on the field. It was "awesome," he said, "just seeing Harrisburg High School out there in football uniforms."
Odds are he'll still be beaming when he watches the Bulldogs in their home opener against Tipton at 6 p.m. Sept. 3.

Chandarpal convalescing after cancer treatment
Presidential Advisor on Sustainable Development, Science and Technology, Navin Chandarpal is back home and responding well to treatment he received for cancer.
Head of the Presidential Secretariat Dr. Roger Luncheon yesterday said that Chandarpal was "feeling much better" and was even present at last week's meeting of Cabinet.
Earlier this month, Chandarpal was hospitalised in New York where he was receiving aggressive treatment for cancer. He was later discharged and from his home in New York he received outpatient treatment.
Considered a member of the PPP's 'old guard' and close to the late PPP leaders Dr Cheddi and Janet Jagan, Chandarpal was welcomed back to the Office of the President by President Donald Ramotar shortly after he was elected at the 2011 general elections.
Chandarpal, also a former Minister of Agriculture, polled sixth place on the PPP's Central Committee with 604 votes at the party's congress in August, 2013 at Port Mourant, Berbice. He is relied on for his statistical analyses during general and regional elections.

Spatial light modulator-controlled alignment and spinning of birefringent particles optically trapped in an array
Applied Optics, Vol. 42, Issue 25, pp. 5107-5111 (2003)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (826 KB)
We demonstrate the use of a phase-only liquid-crystal spatial light modulator (SLM) for polarization-controlled rotation and alignment of an array of optically trapped birefringent particles. A collimated beam incident upon a two-dimensional lenslet array yields multiple foci, scaled to produce optical gradient traps with efficient three-dimensional trapping potentials. The state of polarization of each trapping beam is encoded by the SLM, which acts as a matrix of wave plates with computer-controlled phase retardations. Control of the rotation frequency and alignment direction of the particles is achieved by the transfer of tunable photon spin angular momentum.

GAITHERSBURG, Md., March 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Ortho Biotech is concerned by the Advisory Committee's recommendations to restrict access to erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) for chemotherapy-induced anemia (CIA) in patients with metastatic breast and head and neck cancer, and patients treated with curative intent. The company believes that fully informed patients and their physicians should have the choice to use this important medication, which is the only therapeutic alternative to blood transfusion.
"Over the past several months, the company provided the FDA with substantial new data that give important insight into the safety of ESAs," said Jay Siegel, M.D., Group President, Research & Development. "We hope that the FDA will now take time to review this substantial body of data before reaching its final decision."
The FDA has not yet reviewed new or follow-up survival data accounting for approximately 50 percent of the 7,444 patients in the company's database. The totality of available data support continuing the option to use ESAs according to the label in patients with chemotherapy-induced anemia (CIA).
Out of a total of 59 controlled studies with survival data, the FDA has focused on eight studies of concern. All eight studies researched investigational uses of the drug, and the PROCRIT(R) (Epoetin alfa) label contains specific warnings against such uses.
In addition, a representative of the Cochrane Collaboration who attended the meeting confirmed that the group is about to generate important new analyses regarding the safety of ESA use in CIA. The FDA should consider these analyses before making its final decision.
The current product labeling prominently reflects all known risks of
ESAs, including thrombovascular events (TVEs). TVEs are a plausible
explanation for increased mortality observed in studies with high
hemoglobin (Hb) targets. When ESA use is targeted to Hb higher than 12
grams per deciliter of blood

Press Release
Carnegie Mellon Announces Finalists for Prestigious 2004 CyLab Cybersecurity Journalism Awards
PITTSBURGHCarnegie Mellon University's CyLab will host eight finalists at the 2004 Cybersecurity Journalism Awards program Oct. 12, 2004, at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
The awards, featuring print, broadcast, online and trade media were developed to recognize writers, editors and producers who have done the most to educate the public by giving readers and viewers a better understanding of America's ongoing battle to protect cyberspace and preserve our national security.
This year's award finalists include Larry Abramson of National Public Radio, Scott Berinato of CSO Magazine, Brock N. Meeks of MSNBC, Brian Krebs of the Washingtonpost.com, Jonathan Krim of the Washington Post, John Schwartz of The New York Times, Ted Bridis of the Associated Press and the staff of eWeek Magazine.
"We are extremely pleased to recognize the outstanding media nominated for these honors by our distinguished panel of judges," said Pradeep Khosla, dean of Carnegie Mellon's College of Engineering and co-director of CyLab, a bold, visionary effort aimed at creating new technologies for measurable, available, secure, trustworthy and sustainable computing.
"Through awareness and education, Carnegie Mellon CyLab is promoting safe and responsible computer use through programs like our 2004 Cybersecurity Journalism Awards event," said Dena Haritos Tsamitis, head of CyLab education and outreach and director of the Information Networking Institute.
The panel of judges, chaired by Susan Bennett, a veteran editor and reporter covering foreign affairs for more than 24 years and director of international exhibits at the Newseum, included Carla Robbins, foreign editor of the Wall Street Journal; Carol Giacomo, diplomatic correspondent of Reuters; Ralph Begleiter, a former CNN world affairs correspondent and journalist-in-residence at the University of Delaware; and Roberta Baskin, senior producer and correspondent with Bill Moyers and former producer for ABC's 20/20.
Bob Orr, CBS aviation and transportation correspondent, will be the event's keynote speaker. Since the 9/11 attacks, Orr has covered homeland security, with an emphasis on aviation and terrorism.
Carnegie Mellon CyLab, the Information Networking Institute, the education arm of CyLab, and the Newseum, the world's first interactive museum of news, sponsor the awards.

(2) Thu Oct 15 2009 11:37 Honorable mentions:
Congrats to Joe and Louise for bring a new niece into the world last week. Her name is Miriam and I can't wait to meet this towhead girly.
Also, I'm embarrassed to say it but I forgot to give a shout out to my brother in law Dave, who got to come stay with us overnight a few weekends ago. He missed his flight back to FL, unlucky for him, but lucky for us b/c we got to hang out and eat Ledo's pizza and watch old SNL clips together. Dave, next time you have a conf in DC, feel free to miss your flight and hang! That makes it visitor number 6. Michelle is coming next weekend wa-hoo (lucky number 7) and Chuck and Julie are coming in Nov making the list at #8. Who knew we, er, the city were so popular?
Who's next?!
