Diablo Octane Drivers
Product Overview
The Callaway Diablo Octane Driver is made from revolutionary Forged Composite, a new material that is stronger and lighter than titanium. The clubhead is lighter, made from over 1 million turbostratic carbon fibers, and still maintains an incredibly high MOI. The longer shaft and lighter weight create faster ball speeds for an average of 8 more yards than the Diablo Edge Driver.
- Forged Composite™: Stronger and lighter than titanium with an incredibly high MOI and a longer shaft. 33% of the clubhead is reinforced by 1 million turbostratic carbon fibers. Faster ball and head speeds mean an average of 8 yards over Diablo Edge™ Driver.
- Hyperbolic Face Technology™: A selective reduction process removes excess material for precise thickness control and consistently high ball speed across the face.
- Project X™ Graphite Shaft: The perfect complement to the Diablo Octane Driver, with a longer high performance shaft for maximum feel and performance.

Springbok coach Jake White believes the appointment of a national director of rugby will do nothing to improve the situation in South Africa.
While most, including me, are screaming that such an appointment be made, White said he would prefer to operate free of any director as he felt it would only complicate and not simplify any national coaching position.
"People are looking for answers in the wrong place. The answer to our problems is not the appointment of a national director of rugby. The answer is consistency in coaching appointments at a national and regional level and a succession plan for each person, agreed to by the board of the SA Rugby Union," White told Keo.co.za, adding that he had reservations about a national director of rugby appointment because of all the politics involved in creating such a position.
"The less interference to the Bok side the better," said White. "And I think a national director of rugby would want the Springboks to fall under his job responsibility. I don't think this is right. We currently have a general manager of national teams in former Stormers and Welsh international Andy Marinos. He does a fantastic job, but his focus is very much on the administration around the team. He has nothing to do with the rugby side of it and that is the way I, as a national coach, would prefer it. I know others disagree."
White said that it was outrageous to be calling for the heads of Kobus van der Merwe and Frans Ludeke, to name but two of the country's five regional coaches.
"Take Frans as an example. He has lost four of his first five matches, but the Cats have lost something like 44 of their last 49 matches in the competition. In this time they used Frans, Tim Lane and a coaching trio of Chester Williams, Rassie Erasmus and Brendan Venter. Getting rid of the coach isn't the answer.
"Where's Chester? So much went into his development in 2004 and 2005 and now he hasn't got a team to coach. Where's Brendan? He was very good at London Irish but he's not coaching? What would have happened to Rassie if the Cheetahs were not a new entity in the Super 14? Would he also have been sacked.
"In Cape Town it is the same. What good would it do to be sacking Kobus (van der Merwe) and Gary (Gold) after one season? It is short-term knee-jerk reaction. As I said in an earlier interview, if there was a rugby blueprint that embraced the national coach and the five regional coaches and put in place a three-to-five year plan and succession plan, we wouldn't have coaches coaching from one week to the next wondering if this week is their last. It is not right."
White also said it was crucial that the top 140 players were identified between himself and the five regional coaches.
"We don't have a draft system. We don't have proper identification. There are some very good players running around in the Vodacom Cup that could be adding value to our Super 14 squads. But no one is talking. No one is acting on what is a crisis situation for us. The first five weeks of the competition have not been good to us. All the coaches and myself need to be discussing how it can be improved, not on a casual basis, but in a constructive way to find solutions."
White said it distressed him that his All Blacks counterpart Graham Henry (and his fellow national coaches) were spending a day a week with the five New Zealand franchises. At this Henry interacts with the regional coach and those players in the national frame. It also gives him a chance to see first hand players outside of the national framework.
"We simply don't have that kind of working relationship in our rugby," said White. "I've popped in at the odd union for a casual visit. Earlier in the year I indicated that I would like to play a more active role during the competition, in terms of interacting with the coaches and adding value to their campaigns. Nothing materialised."
White, after five weeks of Super 14 woe, is frustrated. He believes he could be making a difference. Instead he is far removed from the South African Super 14 scene.
"Now is the time to fix it," he says. "We can't keep on plodding along like this."

PEDRO, Ohio — Rock Hill undoubtedly subscribes to the theory that you should save your best for last.
The River Valley football team led 24-13 early in the fourth quarter but the Redmen answered with a 26-to-7 run to win the Ohio Valley Conference game 39-31, Friday night in Lawrence County.
The Raiders (1-7, 0-3) got on the board first with 27 yard field goal by Devin McDonald at the 3:17 mark of the first quarter. RVHS got on the board again at the 4:50 mark of the second quarter with a five yard touchdown pass from Dayton Hardway to Austin Bradley. McDonald added the point after and RVHS led 10-0.
With just under a minute left until halftime River Valley junior Dustin Bickers ran in a three-yard touchdown and, after the McDonald extra point, put the Raiders up 17-0 at halftime.
It was a different game after halftime, as the Redmen Rattled off two scores, the first on a Jonah Cox one-yard touchdown run and the second on a 19-yard touchdown pass from Gabe Marzicola to Austin Collins. Jake Malone was 1-of-2 on extra-points and RVHS led 17-13.
Austin Bradley punched in a one yard touchdown and McDonald hit the point after to expand the RVHS lead to 24-13 with 9:35 remaining in the game.
That's when the Redmen took over, Jonah Cox ran a one-yard touchdown, Marzicola ran a two-yard touchdown and an 18-yard touchdown and finally Chance Blankenship ran a five-yard touchdown to put Rock Hill up 39-24 with 1:58 remaining.
Hardway completed a 25-yard touchdown pass to Bickers with :33 seconds left and McDonald hit the extra-point to pull the Raiders within one score. RVHS failed to score again and fell to Rock Hill 39-31.
Dayton Hardway was 26-of-49 passing for 371 yards, two touchdowns and four interceptions.
Austin Bradley led all receivers with 196 yards on 13 receptions and a score. Kirk Morrow had nine catches for 133 yards. Bickers caught one pass for 25 yards and a score, while Tyler Twyman caught two passes for 10 yards and Mark Wray had one catch for seven yards.
On the ground Justin Arrowood ran 10 times for 49 yards, Bradley had three yards and a score on four attempts. Bickers had one three yard run for a touchdown, Wray ran twice for two yards and Hardway was stopped for negative five yards on his lone carry.
Marzicola was 5-of-9 passing for 108 yards with a touchdown, while Collins had three receptions for 79 yards and a score. Drew McClaskey had two catches for 29 yards.
Jonah Cox was the games leading rusher with 150 yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries, followed by Chance Blankenship with 119 yards and a score on 17 carries. Marzicola ran nine times for 56 yards and two scores and Jordan Hairston had six yards on one carry.
The River Valley held a 20-to-18 advantage in first downs but RHHS held a 437-to-423 advantage in total yards. RVHS was penalized 11 times for 80 yards, while Rock Hill was flagged nine times for 95 yards.
Rock Hill has now defeated River Valley five straight times and Redmen's last three wins have came against RVHS.
River Valley will travel to South Point next Friday, while Rock Hill will travel to Fairland.


text: Working 2nd shift has meant I have missed out on all the league fun. I play disc golf before work usually around 9 or so. I was wondering if there was anyone else who is in this same situation. It would be nice to be an active member in the club and participate in leagues. So would anyone be interested in morning rounds? And if there is enough people who would be willing to show up, would it be possible to create a morning league? If someone from the club could give some direction that would be great. Like I said I'd like to begin participating within the club much more.

Dining just got a little more exciting in Kapolei. There's a lot to tempt the tastebuds at the new Merriman's Monkeypod Kitchen at Ko Olina, or if you're hankering for some gastronomic I've-never-tried-that adventure, head out to Foodland's R. Field Wine Company.
Merrimaking at Merriman's Monkeypod Kitchen
They bill their Monkeypod Kitchen experience as a celebration of "the craft of food, drink and merrimaking." It's a place where using local organic and sustainable produce are not just good for the environment, but great for a regional cuisine menu that features such items as kiawe-roasted chicken wings, Hamakua wild mushroom pizza, bulgogi pork tacos, and organic macadamia nut crusted fish of the day. You can compliment your dishes with a wine from their extensive list. Or wash it all down with a choice of 36 microbrews from Hawai'i and around the world, all served at a nippy 29 degrees. You can also chill out during the daily happy hour from 3 p.m. to 5:30 p.m., and nosh on their appetizers and pizzas.
Since opening in January, the response from both locals and visitors has been beyond expectations. Chef-owner Peter Merriman said, "We are very pleased with how well Monkeypod has been received, especially by our local supporters. It's very important to us that both residents and visitors enjoy our restaurant. And I must mention the fantastic staff we were able to hire from the west side. We've exceeded expectations in community support at all levels."

Evalein My partner and I were attending a wedding in Kifissia so the location was perfect for us. Everything about this hotel was fantastic - our ensuite room was huge and furnished beautifully, the breakfast buffet was delicious, staff were polite and the hotel was impeccably clean. We had previously stayed in a tourist trap hotel in Monasteraki, so Boutique Hotel Anixi was a pleasant surprise. What particularly stood out was the care and attention that had gone into the design of each room. Next year, we will be staying here and commuting into the centre of Athens and would recommend others did the same. In terms of value, quality and service, this hotel is unbeatable.

xljr We staid 3 nights (a french familly with two adults and 2 teens). If the room was surprising for us (4 single beds the same room) and the bathroom rather small, the studio was very clean. We had bread, butter, jam, tea bags and coffee every morning in a little basket. You can find a grocery, fruits and bars or restaurants, close to Athens studio. The place is very close to the Acropolis et the tube. The teams of Athens Studio & Backpackers (they have an alliance) were very friendly and gave usefull answers or help at any demand. At Backpackers, you can use a computer. An advice : take the tram to go to the beaches. Xavier et Laurence

Overview of content related to 'openurl'
This page provides an overview of 1 article related to 'openurl'. Note that filters may be applied to display a sub-set of articles in this category (see FAQs on filtering for usage tips). Select this link to remove all filters.
OpenURL is a standardized format (Z39.88) of Uniform Resource Locator (URL) intended to enable Internet users to more easily find a copy of a resource that they are allowed to access. Although OpenURL can be used with any kind of resource on the Internet, it is most heavily used by libraries to help connect patrons to subscription content. The OpenURL standard is designed to enable linking from information resources such as abstracting and indexing databases (sources) to library services (targets), such as academic journals, whether online or in printed or other formats. The linking is mediated by "link resolvers", or "link-servers", which parse the elements of an OpenURL and provide links to appropriate targets available through a library by the use of an OpenURL knowledge base. The source that generates an OpenURL is typically a bibliographic citation or bibliographic record in a database that indexes the information resources often found in libraries, such as articles, books, patents, etc. Examples of such databases include Ovid, Web of Science, SciFinder, Modern Languages Association Bibliography and Google Scholar. A target is a resource or service that helps satisfy a user's information needs. Examples of targets include full-text repositories, online journals, online library catalogs and other Web resources and services. The National Information Standards Organization (NISO) has developed OpenURL and its data container (the ContextObject) as American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard Z39.88. On 22 June 2006, the Online Computer Library Center (OCLC) was named the maintenance agency for the standard. (Excerpt from Wikipedia article: OpenUrl)

Odd Jobs Gin has taken on a lot of odd work in the past, and when you're a Jack of All Trades agency based in a feudal Japan that's been conquered and colonized by aliens, the term "Odd Jobs" means REALLY ODD jobs. But when some more than slightly suspicious secrets from the shadows of Gintoki Sakata's somewhat shady former samurai past and a new pair of odd jobs collide, the action is bound to get so wild and demented that only a feature film will do it justice!
Sit down, strap yourself in, and make sure you're not wearing anything too tight or constricting as the junior half of OJG takes on the task of tracking down a tenacious terrorist while their silver-haired slickster of a partner seeks out a certain sword in the stunningly side-splitting and screwy Gin Tama!

The Blue Bulls came from behind to edge the Sharks XV 37-36 and WP thrashed the Golden Lions 58-34 in Saturday's Vodacom Cup quarter-finals.
In Durban, the Blue Bulls scored two late converted tries to edge the Sharks XV in a seven-try thriller.
The hosts led 19-13 at the break, thanks to the boot of fullback Gouws Prinsloo, who kicked 14 points via four penalties and a conversion.
However, the Pretoria union fought back strongly in the second stanza. Fullback Ulrich Beyers dotted down in the 78th minute and inside centre Jan Serfontein scored two minutes after the final hooter to set the platform for victory. Replacement flyhalf Tony Jantjies, who will feature for the Baby Boks in the Junior World Championship in June, slotted all the extras to clinch the impressive comeback win.
In Cape Town, WP kept their unbeaten run intact with a 24-point win over the Golden Lions. Flyhalf Kurt Coleman starred for the victors as he completed a hat-trick, while flank Rohan Kitshoff grabbed a brace.
In the semi-finals next weekend, Griquas will host the Blue Bulls in Kimberley, while WP will take on the Pumas in Cape Town.

Two math teachers at Ashbrook High School have more in common than some students know. Longtime educator Al Hess is teaching alongside his 25-year-old daughter, Allie Hess, for the first time. Despite initial concerns, they report they are adapting well. And Allie says her father enjoys pulling wool over students' eyes. He's quick to tell them Allie is his sister, and they both get a laugh out of that.
Al Hess, 51, lives in Gastonia. Watching him make a career in the classroom inspired Allie to teach. He says having her teach in the same department is "the coolest thing in the world." But he admits needing his own space. So it works out well that their classrooms are on different floors at the school on South New Hope Road in Gastonia.
Allie said she often walks upstairs to ask him questions. She lives in Mount Holly and plans to marry her fiancé in December.
Al Hess answers questions about working alongside his daughter:
What did you think when your daughter said that she was going to become a teacher?: "I knew she would be a teacher when she was 10. She is a natural. We used to have a mini classroom in our basement and she was always the teacher."
What made your daughter want to become a teacher? What influence did you have on that decision?: "I guess the apple does not fall far from the tree, but this was her choice."
Is there anything weird or any added pressure about teaching at the same school?: "Yes, there is a little pressure, but if you do your job correctly everything takes care of itself."
What is it like teaching in the same academic department as your daughter?: "Awesome. I am old school and she is new, with great ideas that can relate to our younger generation. So I think we complement each other."
Does teaching at the same school make your job more interesting?: "Teaching is interesting every day. But yes, it's awesome going to work every day with my daughter, but I like to call her my sister."
Do the students know you're father and daughter, and what do they think?: "I tell them she's my sister! And I really don't know what they think. You would have to ask my former students that are in her class now."
Have you become your daughter's mentor or do you encourage her to seek out someone else for help?: "Ashbrook is a family and we look after each other, but really she is blessed with other mentors."
Is it difficult to be both a father and a colleague to Allie?: "No. We leave our personal stuff at home and we are professionals and try to make a difference everyday."
Where have you taught school and for how many years?: "I have been teaching 28 years. One year in Indiana, 13 years at Holbrook, and 14 years at Ashbrook."
Allie Hess weighs in about working alongside her father:
What made you want to become a teacher? What influence did your dad have on that decision?: "I have always wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember. I used to play school with my sisters … with all of my dad's classroom stuff. After growing up and seeing him in a classroom, I always wanted to be able to be as energetic and well-loved as he is by his students."
Is there anything weird or any added pressure about teaching at the same school?: "Before the first days of school, I had two fears: One, I hope people don't compare me to Dad because there was no way I could live up to that. And two, having graduated from Ashbrook, I was worried that he and my old teachers, now peers, would find it weird starting a new type of relationship."
What is it like teaching in the same academic department as your father?: "So far it has been very helpful. Not only are we in the same department, but we teach the same class. It has been nice because I can ask him for help with my lessons and I get to add in my technology knowledge to help his poor students not have to read his handwriting."
Do the students know you're father and daughter, and what do they think?: "They always laugh about it because dad keeps telling people I am his sister. A few students who know him well realize it's a joke and make it fun for Dad and me."
Does your mother work? What does she do?: "My mom is a chemical engineer who works for PBI Products in Charlotte."
Has your dad become your mentor or do you seek out someone else for help?: "Since Dad and I are teaching like classes, we have worked together a lot the first month of school. I also have found that it's important to me to make other connections throughout the school, so I have also been working with other members of our department. I have been able to make some great relationships already."
Is it difficult to be both a daughter and a colleague to your dad?: "Before starting, I thought our father/daughter relationship would hinder us in two ways: One, he would be a hover dad and not let me do my own thing, or two, I would be too nervous to spread my wings, so to speak, and would use him as a crutch. Neither happened once school started. We have a great balance.
What inspired you to become a teacher?: "Dad was definitely the reason why I wanted to become a teacher. I always envied the blue pens, the bulletin boards, the dry erase markers. I never dreamed there was so much more than that back then. I still love what I do, even though it's so tough some days. I also love coaching, teaching seniors, and being as involved as possible."
Where have you taught school and for how many years?: "I have taught high school the past 3 years in Greenville, N.C., at South Central High School."

REST API Reference
The Mule Management Console provides REST APIs that you can use to programmatically access much of the console's functionality.
For details on the management console API, consult Using the Management Console API.
Intended Audience
This document, and the child pages of the REST API Reference Guide, are a technical reference. They are intended for users with solid knowledge of the Mule Management Console, and with some working knowledge of REST. They do not contain instructions or contextual information. For information on installing, configuring and running Mule ESB, consult the Mule 3 User Guide.
REST API Reference
This guide comprises a total of six documents, which cover the following topics:
These documents are a technical reference only, and do not contain instructions or contextual information.
Content Organization and Conventions
All of the documents in this guide follow the same organization and conventions. Each document consists of the following sections:
- Index of operations
- Page title
- Assumptions
- REST resource name
- HTTP Method and operation name
- Operation
Section: Index of Operations
The first section of each document. The index is expandable; it lists the REST operations described in the document. For example, from the Deployments page:
Section: Assumptions
This section lists assumed parameters for all operations detailed in the document. The parameters are:
- MMC host
- MMC listening port
- Application deployed (full name of the deployed MMC as Web Application)
- The name of the
.warfile determines the resources path. For the sake of brevity, the documents assume that the downloaded MMC Web Application has been renamed to
mmc.war. You may use any name that is more convenient for your site, provided that you update the resource path accordingly.
- The name of the
- MMC user name and password
Section: REST Resource Name
The title of this section is the URI of the REST resource documented in the section. For example, the first section in the Deployments page is:
A single document may contain more than one Resource section. In such cases, the first section always corresponds to the URL, and subsequent sections refer to URIs. For example, in the Servers page, the first Resource section is
/api/Servers; subsequent sections are
/api/Servers/{serverId}/applications, etc.
|Resource Description Syntax
Variable content that is optional is enclosed in [brackets]. For example:
Section: Operation
This section describes the operations that you can perform via the REST API. All Operation sections have the same heading:
Short description of the operation.
For example, in the Deployments page, the following heading marks the section that describes the
CREATE operation:
Creates a new Deployment.
In the example above,
POST is the HTTP method used to perform a
CREATE operation.
For improved readability, all documents identify HTTP methods by their own distinctive color:
Each Operation section contains a table with clickable tabs. This table holds the actual contents of the section. Each table is divided into four tabs (highlighted in the image below):
Click each tab to see the relevant information. The image below illustrates the result of clicking the Request tab for this particular example:
Tabs Reference
- Request(see image above): Provides details of the request to the REST API. This tab includes:
- An example of an issued request (in the image above, a JSON file)
- A table listing all parameters necessary to issue the request
- An info box with additional information, if appropriate
- Commands to issue the request with the curl utility, for testing on Windows and Linux
- Response: Provides an example of the response from the REST API for this particular request. Includes a table detailing possible contents of the response.
- Common Return Codes: Lists common HTTP return codes generated by the operation.
- MMC Version: Specifies from which version of MMC the operation is available.

I love Playboy's Play it Sexy! I get complimented on the fragrance every time that I wear it.
Written by Anonymous on May 03, 2015Read Review details ►
I bought the 1.7 sized bottle just to try the scent out and it's very nice and mild. I never thought I'd buy anything from Playboy so this is a first for me. Another nice addition to my collection.
Written by Itgurl on September 23, 2014Read Review details ►
I was surprised to discover these fragrances by Playboy. Even though my teen years are long gone, it's great just to take a trip down memory lane. Play it sexy is soft and feminine,but the scent fades after two hours. So disappointing!! I'll try the others to see if they are any better.
Written by muffintop on June 11, 2014Read Review details ►
Well,what can I say about this fragrance? It's an OK scent,great for anytime use and if you're a fan of Playboy stuff or perhaps on a tight budget,it won't hurt to try this one.

Main supply water line fixed, water on, tested, disinfected. Tanks filling. Back to normal water use today. But remember it is a no outdoor water day under normal water restrictions. A few minor line breaks around town have caused some residents to be without water this morning. These are unrelated to main supply line. We are working on those as fast as we can. Hats off to the Water Crews for their hard work in difficult conditions and to this wonderful community for cutting back use the past few days so that we never ran out of water as predicted.

With a history spanning over 110 years, the BUAV has fought some hard-won battles and achieved much for animals in laboratories. But there is still a long way to go to create a world where nobody wants or believes we need to experiment on animals.
Here are some examples of our more recent successes:
BUAV launches Cruelty Free international, a new global organisation dedicated to ending product testing animals worldwide.
Following a high profile BUAV campaign, a planning application to breed and supply beagles to laboratories was rejected, sparing thousands of beagles from experimentation.
Leading supermarket, Sainsbury's, is certified under the BUAV Humane Cosmetic Standard (HCS) - all Sainsbury's own brand cosmetics and toiletries carry the Leaping Bunny logo.
American Airlines stops transporting monkeys destined for research. Other airlines including, Caribbean Airlines and Monarch Air, follow.
BUAV saves animals as the Veterinary Medicines Directorate announces that animal tests for 26 products are no longer required.
Thanks to the BUAV's efforts, the European Medicines Agency announces action to reduce animal tests.
BUAV wins Freedom of Information victory in landmark ruling regarding controversial monkey experiments at Newcastle University.
Following years of campaigning by the BUAV, the UK government pledges to end the cruel use of animals to test household products.
The BUAV investigation into the cruel trade in primates for research in Mauritius, a major exporter of monkeys to UK laboratories, receives international media coverage.
Superdrug awarded certification under the BUAV's Humane Cosmetic Standard for its own-brand beauty and toiletries range.
BUAV's undercover investigation at Wickham Laboratories exposes shocking animal cruelty, including for the first time, the appalling suffering inflicted on mice for the worldwide craze of using botox products, and major failings by the UK government.
The banning of cosmetics testing on animals within the European Union comes into effect. For nearly two decades, the BUAV and sister organization, ECEAE, has spearheaded the campaign across Europe to achieve this important ban.
We helped save an estimated 4.5 million animals from being used to test chemicals for REACH.
A BUAV investigation into the trade in primates for research in Cambodia and our compelling footage of wild monkeys torn from the wild receives extensive international media coverage.
Marks & Spencer became the first high street retailer to guarantee it sells only BUAV Approved 'cruelty free' household cleaning and beauty products. They were approved under the BUAV's world-leading Humane Cosmetics and Household Products Standards.
The Malaysian Government announced its intention to reinstate the ban on exporting macaques for purposes including research after a campaign led by the BUAV with European Coalition to End Animal Experiments (ECEAE).
Following a BUAV investigation at Cambridge University, we won a great victory in the first stage of our legal battle. The Government was found guilty in the High Court of turning a blind eye to the substantial suffering of animals in Home Office licensed experiments and consequently misleading the public over the extent of animal suffering in UK laboratories.
After a complicated and hard-fought five year campaign, Europe's 'REACH' legislation (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemical substances) incorporates a large proportion of the BUAV's campaign aims, potentially saving millions of animals from chemicals testing.
A major BUAV investigation at the contract testing company Covance in Germany uncovers the appalling reality for primates used in toxicity testing
Following vigorous campaigning and intervention by the BUAV and sister organisation the ECEAE, the EU agrees a Europe-wide ban on cosmetics animal testing - this will come into effect in a phased process ending 2013.
A BUAV investigation exposes animal suffering at Cambridge University. This leads to extensive national news coverage and legal action against the Government, challenging its application of the law on animal experiments.
A UK ban on the LD50 oral toxicity test which were used routinely to poison groups of animals until 50% of them died.
The BUAV brings a legal action against the Home Secretary for failing to direct researchers to use humane non-animal methods in the production of 'monoclonal antibodies' using mice. The Home Secretary settles the case out of court, pays all legal fees and ensures that these "unnecessary animal tests" (their words) no longer occur.
A BUAV investigation exposes, for the first time, the sickening trade in breeding beagles for the research in the UK.
Following years of campaigning by the BUAV,the UK Government bans the testing of cosmetics on animals.
The Humane Cosmetics Standard is launched by a coalition of international animal protection groups, including the BUAV - 140 companies sign up in the first year alone.
The UK Government bans the import of wild-caught primates into the UK for research thanks to the BUAV's Paradise Lost campaign.

Love. Thanks Greentara.
We can maybe say what it is not: attachment which is including blind devotion by selflove. And aversion is blinding as well because this is by devotion to the artificial being what we aren't.
In that way I see no any possibility to recognize own being than through devotion/love for ones own nature; which is pointed by the awaken master/ nature.
Two coins.

Stream of consciousness:
I am convinced of the great value of a project to create a science of morality. Even if such a science should prove ultimately impossible, the lessons learned in the effort would be invaluable. It was Dr. Harris' explicit goal in TML to provide seminal ideas for a science of morality. We should now attempt to apply the scientific method to the problems of morality and ethics.
To begin with, what are the characteristics of this new science? Is it an exact science like physics or a "soft" science like psychology? I will assume for now that it is not some new third category. If it is an exact science, we will need to have mathematical models. I can't think of a better model than Dr. Harris' topological map with its local and absolute maxima and minima. Such a model requires only a relatively simple 3-space. To keep things simple, at least at the outset, let's also postulate that our equations be functions, though not necessarily one-to-one mappings. This is supported by my current inability to contemplate the moral implications of a mountainous overhang in the moral landscape.
The axes of the model space must have units and the units must have a well-defined scalar relationship. The "upward" axis is obviously representative of increasing morality. The origin of the graph suggests a moral equilibrium where good and evil cancel each other. I suggest in all seriousness that the scalar unit of morality be termed the "harris." We may now plot the positions of Dr. Harris' hypothetical women, one quite miserable and doomed and the other quite fulfilled and happy, along the morality axis at precise points. I can only imagine that the happy woman has a very large, positive ordinate and that the poor wretched woman has a large negative one, but this remains to be determined.
As to the method of deriving the morality axis (H-axis) value I admit to being temporarily flummoxed, though I admit that the entity being measured is necessarily associated with a conscious being capable of experiencing some species of pain. We must also decide what the remaining 2 axes represent. It is certain that the ultimate H-value of an H-entity is dependent upon many independent variables such as nutrition, tyranny, control, &c. Considering this fact, we must conclude that the problem may not admit of a single, canonical 3-space.
I can not see a way forward without a unit of consciousness to be assigned to each H-entity. I suggest that this unit be termed the "turing." I also postulate a unit of something akin to contentment or joy, perhaps called the "buddha." It is not necessary to have precise mathematical equations to begin working with the suggested models. We need only initially determine the nature of the various spaces and begin to contemplate their dynamics.
Ultimately, we will need to formulate useful equations for our model. Given the nature of the quantities involved, these equations will need to begin life in a statistical form. It is likely that they will remain in such a form.
I would love to hear suggestions for means and methods relevant to this project. Dr. Harris has sparked a most intriguing discussion with TML, though his critics seem incapable of understanding what he is saying. It would be irresponsible of those of us who do understand Dr. Harris' thesis not to pursue it.

Auto body painter Kamel Yousfi's extended family emigrated from Algeria to work for Peugeot-Citroen in the 1970s. So news that the factory outside Paris where he has worked for most of his adult life will close came as an unforgiveable betrayal.His emotional response: to declare "war" on the company.Yousfi's rage reflected the attitudes of dozens of unionized workers at the sprawling plant in the suburb of Aulnay-sous-Bois as they digested Thursday's announcement that their workplace would be shuttered in 2014.The furious response to the closure, which loss-making PSA Peugeot says is necessary due to overcapacity, stems partly from a Marxist-inspired union culture that casts relations between workers and management as a zero-sum class struggle.

Comments On Mar 20, 2015:The OEM Suzuki DRZ shift lever must be designed for elves. I wear a 9.5-10 boot and the DRZ shift lever is really annoying. I measured my YZ250 from center of peg to center of shift tip and it was about 167mm, my 2013 KTM 250XC is 170mm-ish, and now my 2004 DRZ400E is 173mm-ish. After numerous dual sport trips the MSR shift lever is still straight and doing great. The only reason I didn't rate this a 5 is because the shift tip is excessively long. I cut the shift tip at the first line to bring it in line with most modern shift levers. Now I have a shift lever distance and tip length similar to most modern bikes. Bring your DRZ into the 2010's and purchase this shift lever!

Comments On Aug 29, 2013:This is a good thing to have if you only have a stock shifter it is dubable and wont bend because its a folding leaver its worth the price and iis worth the purchase cause the stock leaver will just fold over and break after so many times of dumping your bike

Comments On Jul 23, 2013:Yeah it's tough. That is the problem. It would probably bust your case open or bend your shift rod. It didn't quite fit right on an XR 400. Yeah I ride an XR 400. I had the KTM 300 and it was awesome, but I got bills. When things get a bit western on the trail, you may just want that shift lever to bend or break rather than force something downstream of the impact. I carry this one for spare; just like a kidney.

Comments On Jun 04, 2013:This shifter is SOLID! It is a tight fit and machined well (NO PLAY ON SHAFT). If you put a standard screwdriver in the gap to open the diameter of the spline, it will slide on. Good Product.

There have ALWAYS been atheists.
That is why they, more than any other group, are condemned in every holy text there is.
There were Arabs laughing at Mohammad's fanciful notions, there were ancient Hebrews that are vituperated in the Bible, and so on.
"The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God.'" Psalm 14:1 - if written by David, about 3000 years old. Appears that you are right - there have always been atheists.

WASHINGTON — Sen. Ted Cruz is smack in the middle of the No. 1 political story in the country, has energized his partys conservative base and has become the most visible 2016 Republican presidential wannabe in an early and crowded field.
Politicians live for these kinds of moments.
A senator for not yet even a year, the Texas Republican is at the epicenter of the faceoff between his party and the Democrats that may well lead to a government shutdown Oct. 1.
Elected in November in his first bid for office, he started an unlikely crusade this summer to force House of Representatives Republicans to defund the Affordable Care Act Obamacare which they did last week.
Now Cruz is the Senate point man in a long-shot but symbolic effort for tea party conservatives to champion a House bill that pairs a temporary funding of the federal government past Oct. 1 with a defunding of Obamacare, their political bete noire.
Hes not trying to win, said Bill Miller, an Austin, Texas-based political consultant with both Republican and Democratic clients, commenting on Cruzs Obamacare fight. Hes trying to make a statement. Hes doing this for the attention.
Cruz spoke all night and early this morning about the dangers of Obamacare as well as several other things that he tied to it, such as the repressive regime of Cuba. Cruz, whose father is from Cuba, talked about socialized medicine and the way people flee the communist island. He got some relief from talking continuously when supportive senators, including Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and Rand Paul, R-Ky, and Pat Roberts, R-Kansas.
Asked be Roberts how he was doing after 17 hours standing, Cruz said, "I'm doing fabulous."
But his own partys Senate leadership is not on board with his strategy. More mainstream Republican conservatives have basically labeled it a fools errand because it has virtually no chance of success and could very well lead to more bad press and public disfavor for the GOP, especially if a compromise to fund the government proves elusive.
Indeed, Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace said that top Republicans had sent him opposition research to hammer Cruz during their televised interview.
On Tuesday afternoon, Cruz took to the Senate floor in what he said was a filibuster that would last all night, talking against the Affordable Care Act with likeminded GOP conservative Sens. Mike Lee of Utah and Rand Paul of Kentucky.
I intend to speak until I am no longer able to stand, he said as he began just before 2:41 p.m. EDT.
He appeared to be beginning a talkathon to prevent a vote, a time-honored piece of Capitol Hill theater. But in reality Senate procedures were already in place for a preliminary vote Wednesday morning.
Repeatedly, Cruz said that people were complaining about Obamacare but that no one in D.C. is listening. At one point, he said to a largely empty Senate chamber, save for a smattering of tourists in the visitors gallery, Most Americans could not give a flying flick about what goes on in Washington.
Cruzs legislatives tactics have a Rube Goldberg-esque quality. His ploy is to get Senate Republicans to vote against the House bill on Wednesday the one that funds government and defunds Obamacare on a procedural motion and then band together to oppose a likely Democratic amendment to strip the Obamacare measure from the bill, which would just leave a bill to temporarily fund the government.
The freshman lawmaker, who angered House Republicans last week by publicly conceding a loss in the Democratic-controlled Senate, is looking beyond this weeks drama.
Sen. Cruz clearly sees himself as a leader of the conservative movement, which is not quite the same as a leader of the Republican Party, said Bill Schneider, a distinguished senior fellow and resident scholar at Third Way, a politically centrist Washington think tank. He is cultivating a following among grassroots conservatives. That kind of following could be useful for a presidential campaign.
Sarah Palin, a Cruz mentor and tea party favorite who was the Republican Partys 2008 vice presidential nominee, wrote in an op-ed last week on a conservative website that it was time for the Senate to put itself on Cruz Control.
Many say his endgame may well be a White House run in 2016. His office says hes focused on being a senator, despite trips to three key early and pivotal GOP primary states: Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. His moves follow the strategy that the Ivy League-trained lawyer used to great success in Texas.
Although Cruz had been known mainly in legal and business circles as the appointed Texas solicitor general, he went on a statewide barnstorming tour in 2011 to appeal to hard-core tea party activists.
He beat the GOP establishment candidate, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, in a primary runoff for the seat vacated by Republican Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. The November general election was a foregone conclusion in Republican Texas.
From the beginning, Cruz never played the traditional keep-your-head-down role of a Senate freshman. He has dismissively lectured senior members, like his patronizing retort about the Constitution to Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., during an assault weapons debate earlier this year; or his veiled accusations at former GOP Sen. Chuck Hagel during his confirmation hearing to become defense secretary that he took money from foreign governments.
How does his latest political gambit fit into his larger plans?
Cruz is thinking about gratifying the tea party wing in states with primaries, said Cal Jillson, a professor of political science at Southern Methodist University. Hes interested in 2016 presidential possibilities. If he cant lock up the love of the tea party wing, hes not going to worry about the institutional wing.
By positioning himself as the leading Republican to oppose the Affordable Care Act and by doing it in such a dramatic way, Cruz is attempting to grab the tea party mantle away from Paul, his closest conservative rival.
In the process, he is further distancing himself from the Republican establishment, notably his own states senior senator, John Cornyn, the Senate minority whip, and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. Both face re-election in 2014 and both are potentially vulnerable to a tea party primary challenge for not being conservative enough.
Cruz said he will not endorse in the 2014 Senate primaries, a curious position given his role as vice chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, which usually defends incumbents, and especially since one of them is his colleague from Texas.
I think Cruz does have a strategy, said Bruce Buchanan, a presidential expert at the University of Texas in Austin. He sees Obamacare, widely unpopular as it is, as his best vehicle for showing courageous leadership against all odds, which he perceives as his best chance (as a rookie) at the Republican presidential nomination. He is indifferent to the reactions of Republicans in Congress, as it is ordinary, very conservative voters who will vote in the Republican primaries, not members of Congress.

NORFOLK - Many comings and goings Monday at Naval Station Norfolk.
The weather was fine for the departure of USS Kearsarge Amphibious Ready Group. The crews were supposed to have deployed Friday but were delayed because of the potential for high winds and rough seas.
The group will go to North Carolina to pick up the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit at Camp Lejeune, N.C.
The deployment is part of a regular rotation of forces to support maritime security operations, provide crisis response capability, and increase theater security cooperation and forward naval presence in the U.S. Navy's 5th and 6th Fleet areas of operation.
The ARG ships are Norfolk-based USS Kearsarge and amphibious transport dock USS San Antonio and amphibious dock landing ship USS Carter Hall from Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story.
As USS San Antonio left,she passed another ship coming home.
USS Laboon and her crew of 35 Officers and 240 Sailors left last July 11 for duty in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea.
An anxious crowd was waiting pierside to see loved ones in person for the first time in eight months.
A multi-mission ship, Laboon can conduct sustained combat operations in air, surface, submarine, ballistic missile, and strike warfare environments.

Porcelain Tiles
Porcelain Tiles: Porcelain tile is made from a mixture of clay, and other materials heated to extremely high temperatures, which makes it much stronger than standard ceramic or even granite tiles. It is non-pourous and therefore great for areas that must be hygienic, such as kitchens and bathrooms. Another great quality of porcelain is that it can be made to emulate many different natural stones in a variety of colors.

I absolutely love this neck massager and there is nothing like it. The shiatsu is the best thing ever!!! I've tried other massagers that just vibrate and it does nothing for a your neck when it's stressed and tired, the shiatsu kneading motion takes care of your tired muscles and bring them back to life.
