MANILA, Philippines (AP) — A film that weaves together stories of the anguish and desperation of American and Filipino soldiers during the notorious Bataan Death March could have been shot on location in a large-scale production.
Filipino director takes new look at Bataan march
Filipino director Borinaga Alix Jr. instead chose to film "Death March" in black-and-white and almost entirely inside a studio using hand-painted backdrops, with close-ups of actors' painted faces portraying their struggles with nightmares and hallucinations in one of the bloodiest episodes of World War II.
"Death March" is competing against 17 other movies at the Cannes Film Festival that opens Wednesday, including Sofia Coppola's "The Bling Ring," French director Claire Denis' "Les Salauds" and fellow Filipino director Lav Diaz's "Norte, Hangganan ng Kasaysayan." The entries were made in the category for art house and experimental films.
Some 70,000 starving, sick, and exhausted American and Filipino prisoners of the Japanese Imperial Army marched under a brutal sun for five days in April 1942, covering 105 kilometers (65 miles) from the Bataan peninsula to a prison camp in Tarlac province. Survivors told stories of atrocities, with many of the prisoners stabbed or decapitated by their Japanese captors if they so much as stopped to drink water or collapsed to the ground. Thousands died from illness or exhaustion.
After reading the script by Rody Vera, Alix said he was struck by the war's emotional and psychological effect on soldiers.
"It felt like they were sleep walking their nightmares," Alix said in an interview. He said he wanted to highlight how the event shaped the soldiers' psyche.
Instead of the initial plan to go on location, he consulted the production designer and decided "to shoot in a controlled environment where all the elements were synthetic, except the actors, to heighten the surreal feeling of the film."
The multi-character movie stars Filipino actors Sid Lucero as a Filipino soldier who fights to stay sane after his friend is shot in front of him, and Filipino-American actor Sam Milby as an American soldier taking care of his sick captain but also thinking of ways to escape from the Japanese.
Other Filipino actors whose stories converge in the film are Zanjoe Marudo, Jason Abalos, Carlo Aquino and Felix Roco.

The Ad Industry Still Knows How to Party
Wednesday night during ad:tech in new York was a busy one. We made it to five parties and that was roughly half of all the parties occurring that night. Kicking the night, well, afternoon, off was Affiliate Summit which held a gathering at the Old Castle pub, a favorite haunt for affiliate marketers during their conference in August. Conference organizers Missy Ward and Shawn Collins were in attendance along with 50-70 others for drinks and buffet goodies.
Following the Affiliate Summit gathering, it was over to The Kimberly where the industry group The Oldtimers held their annual adtech New york party. The Oldtimers is a group of 500 or so people who have worked in online marketing for ten or more year. Believe me when we tell you most of the industry's brain trust was all together in one room that night.

| 2009 Nebraska Offense

| 2009 Nebraska Depth
2008 Nebraska Preview
2007 Nebraska Preview

What you need to know:
The offense finished 15th in the country
with a good group of players, but there weren't many superstars
and they are replaceable. At least that's the hope for the
Huskers. The line will undergo some shuffling, but there's
plenty of talent and plenty of versatile blockers to create a
decent front that should be solid after a few games of work. Zac
Lee appears to be a more than capable of replacing Joe Ganz and
be a quarterback to work around for the next few years, but he
needs receivers. The one big problem area is the loss of Nate
Swift and Todd Peterson, who combined for 125 of the team's
catches, but Lee will have a tremendous group of tight ends to
throw to, led by Mike McNeill. Roy Helu and Quentin Castille
form a nice 1-2 rushing punch that should be serviceable. There
might not be a slew of All-Big 12 performers across the board,
but the numbers should be impressive once again.
Passing: Zac Lee1-2, 5 yds
Rushing: Roy Helu125 carries, 803 yds, 7 TD
Receiving: Mike McNeill32 catches, 442 yds, 6 TD
Star of the offense:
Junior RB Roy Helu
Player who has to step up and become a star: Junior WR
Niles Paul
Unsung star on the rise: Sophomore OT Marcel Jones
Best pro prospect: Junior TE Mike McNeill
Top three all-star candidates: 1) Helu, 2) McNeill, 3) OT
Mike Smith
Strength of the offense: Tight End, Speedy Skill Players
Weakness of the offense: Experienced Quarterback, Proven Wide Receivers
Projected Starter:
The big question mark going
into spring ball was the quarterback play and the potential of
Zac Lee to replace Joe Ganz. The 6-2,
210-pounder had a great offseason and was fantastic in the
spring game completing 15-of-18 passes for 214 yards and three
scores. He only completed one of two throws in game action last
season, but the junior who came to Lincoln after starring for
San Francisco CC has been fantastic for the last few years in
practices, has a nice arm, and brings far more speed and
quickness than Ganz, who ran for 159 yards and five scores.
Projected Top Reserves: There are position
changes, and then there's Latravis Washington,
a 6-3, 225-pound former linebacker who's making the switch over
to quarterback. He has a surprisingly accurate arm, completing
13-of-21 passes for 190 yards and two touchdowns in the spring
game, is extremely smart, and he moves extremely well. He's no
threat to take over the starting job, but he's a potentially
dangerous option in a pinch.In a perfect world, star
recruit Cody Green doesn't see the light of day
for two years and is the face of the program in 2011. The 6-4,
220-pounder is one of the nation's top dual-threat quarterbacks
after throwing for 3,265 yards and 37 touchdowns and rushing for
1,610 yards and 25 scores last year for Dayton High in Texas. At
6-4 and 220 pounds he has the size and he has the deep arm, and
he has the rushing ability. Now he needs a little time to get
used to college life before he's a star. He got to school early
to work out in spring ball and was solid.
Watch Out For ... Lee to be more than fine. Ganz was
terrific, even if he didn't get a whole bunch of attention in a
league full of ultra-talented quarterbacks. Lee isn't quite a
Ganz clone, but he's not far off and he's a better runner. The
offense isn't going to have a problem with him under center.
Strength: Mobility. This won't exactly be the days
of Eric Crouch or Scott Frost when it comes to the quarterbacks
running the ball, but Lee is fast, Washington is a terrific
runner, and Green is special. The Husker quarterbacks are
supposed to do a little of everything well, and this trio can.
Weakness: Experience. Lee has JUCO experience, but
he has thrown two passes in anger in the big leagues. Washington
is a former linebacker and Green should've been kicking back in
his senior year of high school. There will be a learning curve,
even if this is a very talented group.
Outlook: Somewhat quietly, Nebraska finished 15th
in the nation in both passing and passing efficiency. While it
might be a lot to ask for a revamped passing game to do that
again, Lee appears to be good enough to be able to handle
himself well in shootouts. The backups have talent, but they
need time and seasoning.
Rating: 7
Running Backs
Projected Starters:
Marlon Lucky was supposed to be
the main man for the running game, but Roy Helu Jr.
followed up a great spring with a team-leading 803
yards and seven touchdowns. At 6-0 and 215 pounds, he packs a
nice punch inside and has the speed to make things happen when
he gets into the clear averaging a nice 8.4 yards per carry. He
took over the running game in November with three 100-yard games
in the final four before getting stuffed for -1 yard by Clemson
in the bowl. A good receiver, but not an elite one, he caught 26
passes for 266 yards but will be used mostly as a runner once
he's 100% healthy from a hamstring injury. Sophomore
Jordan Makovicka continues the tradition of
Mackovickas rolling through the Husker program following
brothers Jeff, Justin, and Joel. At only 5-10 and 205 pounds
he's not a big, bruising fullback, and will likely be used more
like an I-Back and a power runner. He was an ultra-productive
high school runner, but he's not the talent that Jeff and Joel
Projected Top Reserves: At 6-1 and 235 pounds,
junior Quentin Castille is a big, tough runner
who finished second on the team two years ago with 343 yards and
added 467 yards and six touchdowns last season being used mostly
on short yardage plays until the Gator Bowl when he rumbled for
125 yards. He has tried to keep his weight down to add more
quickness to his game, but he'll still mostly be the tough back
who's used to beat up defenses. He can catch a little bit,
making nine grabs for 109 yards, but he's not a top receiver.
Sophomore Austin Jones walked on to the
team a few years ago and now will make a push to be the No. 3
back in the rotation. A smart players with good quickness, he
has yet to see any action outside of shining on the scout team.
The 5-10, 210-pounder isn't going to carry the load, but he
should come in and see action in blowouts.Bringing more
speed to the backfield is Rex Burkhead, one of
the team's top recruits. The 5-11, 200-pounder out of Texas has
home run hitting speed and the potential to be a dangerous
returner. He ran for 1,762 yards and 28 touchdowns last season
and caught 47 passes along the way. A nice get for the Huskers,
he should be a big part of the offense sooner than later.
One of several fullbacks looking for time in the rotation is
Tyler Legate, a walk-on who started out his
career at South Dakota before sitting out last year in Lincoln.
The 5-10, 210-pound sophomore was a tough defender and a
2,000-yard runner in high school, and he also showed enough
speed to be part of a relay team that got to the Nebraska state
Watch Out For ... Helu to come up with a bigger year.
He has to stay healthy, and he's trying to bulk up a bit to be
able to take more of a pounding. He might not be the sexiest
back in the Big 12, but he'll put up some big numbers and should
warrant all-star honors if he averaged over six yards per carry
again like last year.
Strengths: Receiving ability. The offense likes to
use all the running backs like third down backs with the ability
to do a little of everything. While Helu and Castille might not
be phenomenal pass catchers, at least like Lucky was, they're
very good and very reliable. They can be used in a variety of
Weakness: Fumbles. This was expected to be a problem,
and it was. While the Huskers lost a not-that-horrible 17
fumbles, they put it on the ground 31 times. This will be a good
ground game, but not an elite one, and it doesn't need to
sputter by putting the ball on the ground.
Outlook: Helu and Castille are good, solid backs
who can each carry the workload and should combine to balance
out the offense. Now the task will be to find a reliable No. 3
back who can add a bit more speed, along with a good fullback to
pave the way. With a mobile quarterback in Zac Lee helping the
total, Nebraska should finish in the top 30 in the nation in
rushing, but the more the backs can do, the better.
Rating: 7
Projected Starters:
The team needs a No. 1
receiver, and while senior Menelik Holt might
not be that type of a target, he's a sound, reliable producer
who finished fourth on the team with 30 catches for 355 yards
and a score. While he was M.I.A. for a big portion of last year,
catching just one pass over a four game span, he has the ability
to do a lot more. At 6-4 and 220 pounds and with nice deep
speed, he has the potential to be a matchup nightmare. However,
potential defines his career after coming to the program as an
elite recruit who hasn't quite panned out.Junior
Niles Paul has the ability to be a top target, even
though he didn't score and averaged just 9.3 yards per catch
last year on 23 grabs. While he's smart enough to earn academic
honors, he made a boneheaded move and got suspended for
suspicion of driving under the influence. While he missed time
this spring, the 6-1, 215-pounder is expected to be back in the
starting spot this fall where he needs to show off his
phenomenal deep speed.The tight ends should be the
strength of the passing game led by junior Mike McNeill,
the team's leading returning receiver who caught 32 passes for
442 yards and six scores. the 6-4, 240-pounder has nice hands
and has shown just enough toughness as a blocker to be more than
just a beefed up wide receiver. After a strong finishing kick to
last year, he should be the go-to target early on.
Projected Top Reserves: Freshman Antonio
Bell was fantastic this spring showing off the best
wheels in the receiving corps to go along with 6-2, 180-pound
size. There was a question about whether or not he was going to
redshirt, but he was too good this offseason to be kept on the
sidelines. He'll be a third down target and will be used in
three and four wide sets as a deep threat. Senior
Chris Brooks has never been healthy and only
caught two passes for 27 yards with a touchdown coming against
Kansas. At 6-2 and 210 pounds he has excellent size with the
type of excellent deep speed that made him one of the nation's
top recruits in 2005. He has great hands and he makes every grab
in practice, and now he'll work in combination with Holt.
Former I-Back Marcus Mendoza was lost in
the shuffle at running back running for 103 yards and a
touchdown in his limited work. At 5-9 and 190 pounds he's built
more like a receiver and has the tremendous speed to make big
plays on the outside. One of the fastest high school players in
Texas a few years ago, he ran a 10.64 in the 100 and 21.6 in the
200. Great in spring ball, he's a tough blocker for his size.
Certain to be used in two tight end sets is Kyler
Reed, a 6-3, 230-pounds all-around playmaker who can
block well and has the hands to be used as a nice deep threat.
The redshirt freshman proved this offseason that he could take
short passes to the house, highlighted by a 71-yard touchdown in
the spring game. He's a weapon.Even with great tight
ends in McNeill and Reed already in place, 6-6, 250-pound
Ben Cotton is certain to see plenty of action.
The redshirt freshman was a nice recruit with a good all-around
mix of toughness, hands, and route-running ability.
Watch Out For ... the wide receivers to be an issue
early on. There isn't a Nate Swift or a Todd Peterson to count
on right away, and while there's a ton of speed and nice overall
upside, there isn't a sure-thing wideout to rely on from day
Strength: Tight end. McNeill would be in the hunt
for first-team All-Big 12 honors if it weren't for Oklahoma's
Jermaine Gresham. Reed and Cotton are likely to be too good to
keep off the field.
Weakness: Receivers who have lived up to the prep
hype. Bell and Mendoza are nice young targets who should add
some more pizzazz to the corps, but Holt, Paul, and Brooks
haven't come close to playing up to their promise.
Outlook: The whole should be better than the sum
of the parts; the production will be better than the players.
There might not be a superstar, go-to wide receiver to count on
out of the gate, but there are enough big, fast, talented
players to hope for one to quickly emerge. The Huskers are
loaded at tight end where QB Zac Lee should have plenty of good
targets to rely on.
Rating:: 6.5
Offensive Line
Projected Starters:
The right side of the line needs to be
replaced with sophomore Marcel Jones getting the first
shot at taking over for Lydon Murtha at tackle. At 6-7 and 310 pounds
he's a big blocker with a long frame that's good at keeping pass rushers
at a distance. He started at right tackle in the opener against Western
Michigan and saw time throughout the season as a key backup, and while
he can play on the left side if needed, he should be a rock on the other
side. The other big loss is all-star guard Matt Slauson. Junior
D.J. Jones is versatile enough to play either guard or
tackle, but he's been groomed to play right guard after spending last
year as the main backup. A big-time recruit for the program, he was the
top prospect in Nebraska in 2006, he's about to step up and become a
major factor. Built like a tackle at 6-5 and 305 pounds, he's tall,
moves well, and has excellent strength for the inside.In one of
the big moves of the offseason, sophomore Mike Caputo
will go from being a backup guard to center after a nice spring. The
former walk-on isn't big at just 6-1 and 275 pounds, but he's feisty and
good on the move. While it's hardly a lock that he'll be the starter in
the middle, he'll be a key piece to the puzzle in some way. With
Caputo good enough to move to the middle, that will allow senior
Jacob Hickman to move to left guard where he should be more
useful. The 6-4, 290-pounder was an honorable mention All-Big 12
performer at guard two years ago, and now he's expected to be an
all-star again
The one big issue up front is replacing center Brett Byford, the only
starter to last the whole season, but the Huskers have two-time honorable mention
All-Big 12 performer Jacob Hickman moving over and ready to step in.
The 6-4, 290-pounder was a bit questionable going into last year with a
knee injury, but he ended up turning into a steady starter at left
guard. The anchor of the line and a good, tough veteran, he can play
where needed and could end up moving back and forth between spots.
Even with all the movement, the most important position might be at
left tackle where 6-6, 290-pound junior Mike Smith is
back after started 12 games last year. Originally projected to be a key
backup, he has been a nice surprise after moving over from the defensive
side. A great athlete who's still trying to get enough polish to become
a steady all-around blocker, he's expected to become a steady all-around
blocker now that he knows what he's doing. He's also expected to be the
team's top pass protector.
Projected Top Reserves: There's a good chance
Jaivorio Burkes will end up starting at right tackle at
some point this year. A nice producer as a true freshman, he was a key
reserve last year earning three starts and being a steady blocker. He'll
work at right tackle as a part of a crowded group with 6-5, 295-pound
size, quick feet, and a world of upside.
6-5, 310-pound sophomore Keith Williams was a big-time recruit
who's built more like a tackle than a guard, but but he ended up playing
on the inside and now will back up Huff at left guard. He has the talent
to eventually be special. Trying to find a spot somewhere in the
tackle mix is Ricky Henry, a 6-4, 305-pound junior who
is great at finishing blocks and has a defensive lineman's mentality. He
went to North Dakota State College of Science where he became a star at
right guard. In high school he was a Nebraska state champion wrestler
and brings that sort of mauling ability to the offensive front.
Watch Out For ... the right tackle situation. There
are at least four players good enough to take over the gig with Jones,
Burkes, Henry, and Derek Meyer all trying for the same
spot. Jones has the inside track, but there should be a fight.
Strength: Versatility. Along with the right tackle
job, there are several options for all the positions to allow the
coaching staff to tinker with the combination. There's talent up front,
but it has to be molded.
Weakness: Pass protection. The line last year was
fine at keeping the quarterbacks upright, but it wasn't great allowing
21 sacks and several big hits. This year's line has athleticism and
upside, but with several new starters and a lot of shuffling, it could
take a little while for everything to jell.
Outlook: This isn't going to be the Nebraska line
of the heyday, but it'll be good. The former coaching staff brought in
several great prospects, and the new staff has come up with some nice
new talents to mix in. The key early on will be to find one set lineup
and stick with it, but there are several good options to play around
with in case of injuries of if someone isn't getting the job done. This
might not be a team strength, but it'll be a positive.

Religion is the most popular business in Africa today. Because it is "written" the devil or Lucifer is the root of all evil, we blame the devil for almost all our problems. We blame someone or something we cannot even see with our eyes as the cause of all our problems. Is that wisdom? I don't think the devil is the root of all illiteracy and stupidity and I think sometimes we just over-blame the devil for no good reasons at all. Instead of blaming ourselves for our stupidity and ignorance, we blame the poor guy why because it is "written". Some may call me the assistant Lucifer for making this post but I still believe sometimes we just have to say it the way it is. Religion is doing more harm than good in Africa. Religion continues to tear Africa into pieces and I don't think Africa can prosper under the dark shadows of religion.
First of all, please pardon my ignorance if you find this article very offensive. It is just my personal opinion and it reflects the little I know and the very little I have seen with my own eyes. I cannot delete it although it seems to offend so many people. I can only try to edit the tone of the article a little bit. Once again, I am not a Christian trying to tarnish the "good reputation" of Islam. Islam has done some very great things in the past just like Christianity. However, in my opinion, the bad things Islam and Christianity have done surpass all the good things they've ever accomplished.
"Only a fool says in his heart there is no God" and no I am not a fool. I believe in God because it doesn't make much sense not to believe. However, I believe in God not religion why because religion makes no sense.
Ubuntu is an African word that means so much. Ubuntu is more than just a philosophy. Ubuntu is a way of life and it simply translates "I am because we are". In other words, a person is a person through other people. Although the word "Ubuntu" comes from southern Africa, the concept of Ubuntu is universal throughout Africa under various names. Ubuntu in the Xhosa culture means: "I am because we are". In the Botswana Tswana language, the same concept exists. It is called botho, and the phrase that a person is a person through other people translates to "motho ke motho ka batho". The Ashantis and other Akan groups in Ghana have a similar concept which simply translates "biako ye" or "unity is great". In Malawi, the same concept exists and it is called "uMunthu".
Although all black people have that "Black DNA", we are Africans because of our culture and traditions. In other words, our DNA plays very little to no role at all when it comes to what truly defines us as Africans. When it comes to physical features such as color and height, DNA plays a very major role. DNA plays a very significant role in determining the color of our skin, the color of our eyes, our hair color, our height, etc. However, DNA plays very little to no role at all in cultural identity. DNA plays very little to no role at all in culture and DNA plays almost no role in tradition. In other words, although the "Black DNA" may determine our black color, the "Black DNA" plays absolutely no role when it comes to what truly defines us as Africans. Skin color does not equate culture or nationality.
According to my grandfather, "it doesn't make much sense differentiating between mother and baby snakes why because they are both poisonous and none of them shows mercy". In other words, evil is evil and must not be tolerated in anyway or form. In Africa, "one does not follow the footprints in the water" why because "A log thrown into the water does not become a crocodile". Also, "too much roaming about deprived the male rat of its fat". It is true Africa is the land of mystery but what people especially Westerners do not understand is the fact that, none of those mysteries covering the continent has no keys to unlock them. In other words, although they appear "mysteries" to those who do not know, they are nothing but treasures in stock to the average African. Africa is the land of culture and Africa is the land of traditions.

Mission Viejo has interpreted existing municipal and zoning codes to include e-cigarettes under smoking, though the codes don't specify e-cigarettes, according to City Clerk Karen Hamman and Community Development Director Elaine Lister.
Advocates of e-cigarettes are frustrated by opponents' attempts to lump e-cigarettes in with tobacco products, saying they are less harmful.
"I think it's unfortunate that the industry is being villainized," said David McElroy, 31, who tried to open MetaVape e-cigarette lounge in Aliso Viejo.
The majority of Orange County cities are observing from the sidelines, paying attention to news headlines and medical research.
"We are keeping an eye open for what other cities do, but we do not anticipate any changes in the near future," Brea City Clerk Cheryl Balz said.
The League of California Cities has not taken a stance on e-cigarettes, Spiegel said, though the organization's board is scheduled to take up the issue April 24.
Part of the reason some cities prefer to hold off is they haven't run into any issues, and the jury is still out on health effects of e-cigarettes.
Irvine and Laguna Beach are waiting, for now.
The majority of the Irvine council late last month said not enough information is available about e-cigarettes and their effects, and a ban would threaten individual liberties.
"I have confidence in individuals and their ability to make their own choices," Irvine Councilman Jeff Lalloway said.
E-cig supporters cite anecdotal evidence suggesting they help people quit smoking tobacco products, though the World Health Organization stated last year that hasn't been scientifically proven.
A 2013 study published in the Nicotine and Tobacco Research journal – cited by Aliso Viejo in its study of the issue – states secondhand concentration of nicotine is 10 times less in e-cigarette vapor than in smoke from a traditional cigarette.
Opponents are quick to point out the lack of regulations in manufacturing e-cigarettes and the liquid nicotine used in them. The Food and Drug Administration said it intends to regulate e-cigarettes as it does tobacco products, but hasn't provided a timeline for the effort.

With restoration works entering the final phase, the Nilgiris Mountain Rail, whose services were hit following heavy rains in November last, would become operational by last week of this month, Southern Railway sources said.
Services of NMR, a World heritage train, between Mettupalayam to Udhagamandalam was affected on November 8 last year due to unprecedented rains of more than 800 mm on a single day and it was estimated that total cost of restoration would be around Rs.11 crore.
A few more works pertaining to signalling and electrical systems and other related engineering works were yet to be completed, before making the route operational, Railway sources said.
The train restored its service between Coonoor and Udhagamandalam, an 18 km stretch, on January 5 last. The trial run of a material train over a bridge was successfully carried out on March 25, sources said, adding, the train would become operational ahead of the target date of May 15.

The BMJ Today: More on climate change
3 Oct, 14 | by BMJ
Earlier this year, The BMJ's editor in chief, Fiona Godlee, was one of 50 senior UK medical professionals to sign a letter in the Times newspaper about the health benefits of ending investment in fossil fuels, and diverting funds instead to alternative energy and more active forms of transport.
On 1 October 2014, The BMJ published an editorial, calling for the World Health Organization to declare a public health emergency. The BMJ has campaigned about climate change for years, and the reactions from our readers have been interesting—indeed, as Godlee writes, "When The BMJ started publishing articles on climate change, some readers told us to stick to our knitting." more…

Border Patrol moving workers
Emphasis is shifting toward Mexico border
WASHINGTON — The Dallas Border Patrol station, the closest one to Wichita Falls, is closing because of a strategy to focus federal manpower on borders instead of interior areas like North and West Texas.
The U.S. Customs and Border Patrol strategy calls for withdrawing agents and shuttering Border Patrol stations in Abilene, Dallas, San Angelo, San Antonio, Lubbock and Amarillo beginning in six months, according to a Customs and Border Patrol statement.
The Customs and Border Patrol is shuttering nine interior stations in four states. The change will save an estimated $1.3 million annually.
Stations in Billings, Mont., Twin Falls, Idaho, and Riverside, Calif., are also shutting down. The shutdowns will affect 41 Border Patrol agents and seven support workers.
Personnel will transfer, Bill Brooks, a Customs and Border Patrol spokesman based in Marfa, said.
Brooks said the offices are not closing but deactivating, which allows the Customs and Border Patrol to staff them again if it becomes necessary.
Border Patrol Chief Michael J. Fisher detailed the changes in a 16-page memo to chief patrol agents and division chiefs.
The Customs and Border Patrol has been concentrating resources in "immediate border areas," Fisher said in his memo.
"These deactivations are consistent with the strategic goal of securing America's borders and the objective of increasing and sustaining the certainty of arrest," he said.
Wichita Falls' congressman, Rep. Mac Thornberry and North Texas Rep. Randy Neugebauer are protesting the shutdown of stations in their district, including those in Amarillo, Abilene and Lubbock.
Neugebauer, a Republican from Lubbock who represents Young County and part of Archer County, and Rep. Mike Conaway, a Republican from Midland, have signed on to a letter authored by Thornberry.
The letter, dated Tuesday, takes their protest to Border Patrol Chief Michael J. Fisher. The trio believe the Customs and Border Patrol decision will leave their districts vulnerable and without federal agents to assist local law enforcement officers.
"How can the western half of Texas be adequately covered by federal officials? Also, if federal agents are unable to come to the scene to take the illegal aliens into custody, will these violators have to be released back into the general population?" the letter said.
The Abilene and San Angelo stations are important because of the Interstate 10 and Interstate 20 corridors, the letter said.
The San Angelo station is in Conaway's district. The Amarillo station lies in Thornberry's district. Neugebauer's district includes the stations in Abilene and Lubbock.
The letter said the Amarillo and Lubbock stations are among top apprehenders of undocumented immigrants in the Big Bend area. Apprehensions total 638 so far this year for those two stations.
Fisher's memo mentioned an earlier closing of the Livermore Border Patrol Sector in California because of "overlapping enforcement responsibilities."
The letter from the lawmakers noted that overlapping responsibilities should not be a problem for the Border Patrol stations in the sparsely populated and vast area in North and West Texas that their districts cover.
"We strongly agree that it is important to gain better control of our borders," the letter said. "We also strongly believe that removing the border patrol agents from this interior region of Texas will leave our area vulnerable and undermine the overall effort to enforce our laws and secure our nations."
If U.S. Customs and Border Patrol still intends to shutter the offices, the lawmakers are requesting a delay until the agency can explain in writing how it will help local law enforcement officials "address hundreds of immigration violations a year without immediate federal support," the letter said.

AICPA Readies New Business Reporting Model
The five fundamental elements of the new model are:
- Reliable systems to collect and analyze information.
- Industry-specific financial and nonfinancial performance measures.
- Better quality disclosures written in "plain English."
- Corporate accountability.
- Real-time distribution of information.
The current issue of the CPA Letter explains that online, real-time information incorporating the five fundamentals is the only way to truly meet marketplace demand for more relevant, up-to-the-minute information.
To build a migration plan to the new model, the AICPA has formed a special committee that consists of representatives from assurance services, consulting services, the Auditing Standards Board, accounting standards, business and industry, government, PCPS-the Alliance for CPA Firms and the board of directors. The expectation is that the committee will have various task forces working toward the common goal of making all five elements successful.
For more details, download [2] a Q&A discussion with Alan Anderson, AICPA's senior vice president, member and public interests.

Canal and River Trust takes over from British Waterways
- 12 July 2012
- From the section UK
A new charity taking over responsibility for canals and rivers in England and Wales is to be officially launched later.
The Canal and River Trust will be responsible for about 2,000 miles of canals and rivers while waterways in Scotland will remain in public hands.
It takes over from British Waterways in a major transfer of public assets into the charitable sector.
Ministers say it is a major milestone in its programme to reform quangos.
The change does not mean that public funding is coming to an end.
The government has agreed to pay about £800m to the charity over the next 15 years.
But the trust says its new status will open up new sources of funding.
It has already announced support from companies, including Google, and will be trying to raise money from the general public.
The charity, whose patron is the Prince of Wales, will give the estimated 10 million people who visit the waterways a greater role in making them cleaner and more attractive.
The Canal and River Trust said: "By pledging money or time, people can get involved in projects such as creating new habitat for rare water voles, planting linear orchards for people and wildlife, and restoring neglected towpaths."
Chairman Tony Hales said British canals and rivers had been "transformed from a national disgrace into a national treasure" in the past 50 years which "has been extraordinary" but was only the start.
He said: "The Canal and River Trust opens an exciting new chapter in the waterways' long history and gives a chance for everyone who cares for them to play a part in their future.
"By harnessing public goodwill and energy, our canals and rivers can breathe much needed new life into our towns, cities and countryside. It's an amazing opportunity and we can't wait to get going."
And Environment Secretary Caroline Spelman said that, by placing waterways in trust: "We are giving all those who love our rivers and canals an opportunity to get involved in how their local river or canal is run and help to provide a bright future for our historic canals."
The BBC's Adam Porter says ministers will be watching the charity's progress to see whether other public bodies could be turned into charities.

Update on review programme 11 September 2013 Further to the Serco Group plc (Serco) announcement, on 28 August, relating to our Prisoner Escort and Custody Services contract the company today provides an update on the review programme. This programme is now underway, identifying any changes necessary to our practices, processes and procedures. We will also ensure appropriate transparency between Serco and the customer, supported by a programme of training. Our Board has established a specific Committee of the Board to oversee this programme and to resolve any issues emerging from the ongoing reviews and audits, which are due to be completed by the end of November. Lord Gold has now been appointed as an independent third-party member of this Committee. Serco will provide a further update in due course. Chris Hyman, Group Chief Executive, said: "Serco is a business led by its values and built on the strength of its reputation for integrity, and the overwhelming majority of our people work hard every day to deliver important public services effectively. We will not tolerate poor practice and behaviour and wherever it is found we will put it right. I am delighted that someone of Lord Gold's stature and reputation has agreed to provide independent insight to this important programme. This is an opportunity to show who we are and what we stand for.

DALLAS Movie buffs and beer drinkers alike are rejoicing at the news that Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is expanding yet again this time south of downtown Dallas.
The Cedars/South Lamar neighborhood was chosen to house the 'theater for movie fans by movie fans,' slated to open in mid-2015.
It will include an eight-screen theater and a Glass Half Full Taproom with two patios and a view of downtown at the southwest corner of South Lamar and Cadiz Streets. It is taking over a blighted and vacant building.
Alamo Drafthouse Cinema DFW executive James Wallace said the new site will also have space for outdoor screenings and live bands.
Neighbors watching the area change and develop says they are looking forward to the possibilities taking shape.
'I'm very excited,' said neighbor Amber Autrey.
They see The Cedars transforming into what they hope will become a destination near the heart of Dallas.
'I think a movie theater is great to add to the development,' said neighbor Jarrell Aleem. 'It's a lot to bring our families, and adds in with the park they have. It's a perfect fit.'
This is the second North Texas location for the Austin-based theater; the first opened in Richardson last August.
The theaters are noted for unique programming events, like quote-alongs, and partnerships with local businesses and breweries to provide food and beverages. There are no advertisements in the pre-show entertainment and the theater chain has a zero-tolerance policy with those who talk or text during films.
'We're super excited to finally have a theater in Dallas proper and be part of the growth in the downtown Cedars/South Lamar district,' Wallace said. 'Not only from a location standpoint, but in terms of my role, I'm excited for the programming personality an Alamo in that area has the potential to have. Plus as a movie nerd, to have a theater that looks out over the same iconic Dallas skyline that served as Old Detroit in RoboCop is pretty rad!'
The theater will be located about halfway between the Omni Dallas Hotel and South Side on Lamar.
'Everything about downtown and South Dallas dovetails perfectly with the Alamo brand,' said Alamo Drafthouse DFW Owner and COO Bill DiGaetano. 'The convergence of chef-driven restaurants, food trucks, craft breweries, the Arts District, and homegrown/local retail are all complimentary characteristics of Alamo culture and lifestyle.'
And the Cedars neighborhood is on board.
'Oh, I love it!' said Blaise Gentry. 'That's why I love to live down here, because it's constantly growing. It's constantly new things opening up.'

Filipino killed in fresh Malaysian assault – report
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines – One of the Filipino gunmen in Sabah was reportedly killed in an encounter Wednesday morning as Malaysian security forces continued their operations against the group.
"At 6:45 a.m., there were shots fired at our security forces and we returned fire and one of the enemies was shot," Inspector General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar was quoted as saying in a briefing with Malaysian media in Tanduao village, Lahad Datu, Sabah.
"We believed he is killed," Omar said, according to Malaysia's The Star. The report however does not state if any body was found after the encounter.
Omar also said that the supporters of the Sultanate of Sulu, which have been encamped in the village for at least three weeks, had been continuously on the move to avoid detection.
Police have been conducting mopping-up operations to find the members of the group after Malaysian security forces bombed the village using fighter jets and artillery Tuesday morning to end the occupation.
The "Royal army" of the Sultanate of Sulu in Lahad Datu, led by Rajah Mudah Agbimuddin Kiram, are in Sabah to reclaim what they say is their rightful territory.
At least 14 from the side of the "Royal army" and eight Malaysian policemen have been killed already from skirmishes that broke out after several weeks of the tense standoff and failed negotiations. The Star-Asia News Network

About the Presentation:
Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) is a key technology in flight vehicle engineering, without which most airborne or space-based craft couldn't function. Steeped in a rich legacy of applied mathematics, GNC is often practiced as a balance between theory, analytical rigor, and the constraints of engineering design and manufacturing...sort of an "equal opportunity employer" for both the math geeks and mechanical practitioners amongst us. This eclectic presentation will walk the audience through a whirlwind tour of GNC as applied to different aerospace vehicles, emphasizing the historical traditions from which applied mathematics has morphed into engineering solutions and from which intuitive designs have led to exciting math discoveries.
About the Speaker
Like many of the Baby Boomer Generation Lou was greatly influenced by SPUTNIK and the early space race and, inspired by the first moon landings, set his mind on becoming a "ROCKET SCIENTIST", designing and building cool flying machines and satisfying his urge to remain a math geek. So off to Purdue University he trekked and 4 1/2 years later, in late 1973, snuck out with an MS in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering; specializing in flight mechanics, optimization theory, and "plotting vast amounts of data by hand". After graduation he headed to Florida where he took his first... and only... job in the GNC Department at what was then Martin Marietta (now Lockheed Martin). During the next 40 years, he worked on most of the company's major missile and sensor programs, pushing the state of the art in several amazing technologies... including an early supersonic flight demonstration of Integral Rocket Ramjet propulsion, the first ever tactical implementation of a Stellar Inertial Navigation System, advanced orbital guidance mechanizations for space defense applications, and integrated detection and tracking systems for surveillance and guidance closure. His technical specialties include flight mechanics, aided inertial navigation, missile guidance, inertial tracking, and optimal estimation. He is a Distinguished Member of the Group Technical Staff at LM Missiles and Fire Control and an LM Corporate Engineering Fellow. In 2012 he was selected as the MFC Engineer of the Year and awarded for Technical Excellence at the Lockheed Martin NOVA Awards in Washington, DC. Outside of work, Lou is an avid hiker, runner, and cyclist and has also written four books on the fine art of canoe paddling. He resides in Orlando, Florida with his wife, Carol, close to his daughter, Melissa, and four grandchildren; Clint Jr., Ethan, Joseph, and Angie. Still a kid at heart, he can and does play as hard as them...though he has to quit a little sooner.
The mission of the Orlando chapter of the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) is to foster the definition, understanding, and practice of World Class Systems Engineering in industry, academia and government.
We host monthly meetings and tutorials that provide a wide range of technical topics important to engineers in the Orlando area from aerospace and defense to bio-medical.

I thought when my first pregnancy turned out to be ectopic after trying for 2 years, it was bad luck. That was 11 years ago. If I only would have known what the future would hold! That first ectopic was not in the tubes, in the abdomen. Second pregnancy I miscarried. Third and fourth, miscarried. All before 6 weeks. Last year I finally visited a fertility doc for the battery of tests and exploratory surgery. It was too risky to remove my left block tube, so they cut the ends so nothing can enter it. The right side had some scarring but flowed fine when tested. The doctor said there was no reason why I shouldn't get pregnant (right side). This year, after my 4th m/c, I went to another fertility doctor to get his opinion. Lucky me, I found out I was pregnant three days after that consultation with #5. This has been the longest (the most hope that I've had) time I've been pregnant--6 1/2 weeks. This pregnancy they've kept me on high alert, saying if I had any significant pain, off to emergency surgery I would go to have my only remaining tube removed. I bled for a week and still had the tiniest bit of hope that the doc said was there. I hoped everything would be okay, but as a plan B I secretly hoped it would be ectopic rather than m/c so that maybe I would have a shot at IVF with success, as the doc said maybe all of those m/c were actually ectopics that passed on their own (except #1, which was w/methotrexate) since I've never seen a heartbeat. I haven't been back to the doc but they did tell me that I have lost/am losing this baby too. Not sure what they will do this time, as I've had no pain and no passing of tissue like with the last 4. The nurse said it still could have been ectopic but that we probably will never know.
I'm sharing my story in hopes maybe someone has had a similar experience so that maybe there's one little thing I could be doing to improve my chances. I'm in my mid thirties and really feel like I'm running out of time. I'm tired of the tears that I feel welling up in my eyes every time I see a pregnant woman or baby. Any suggestions or insight is appreciated.

Tom Cruise made the idea of getting into "risky business" look cool in the 1983 film of the same name. Wiki Commons
There's no need to teach what's second nature. According to a report released today on the top ten most risky businesses to be in in next year, information technology schools came in number six. And according to the official findings the decline is due to a generation of young people being raised with computers.
The category, which ranked 6.21 out of 9 on the risk scale, and also included business certification classes, is falling victim to demand for more detailed four and six year courses.
"Five to ten years ago there was a big demand for these courses," said Kevin Boyland, an industry analyst at IBIS World, which released the study. "Software certification skills are still in demand but what you see more often is an employee of a company getting paid to do this by a job that they got thanks to a four-year education."
Looking for ways to remain relevant in today's economic conditions, large operators of IT schools have started consolidating and offering online courses that allow students to attend classes remotely, according to the report. And over the next five years the number of firms operating in the industry is forecast to decline at an annualized rate of 4.4% to 11,790.
In its risk analysis, IBIS World measured the contributions of the ten industries on the list—including cigarette and tobacco manufacturing and soda production—by calculating value added forecasts accounting for an annualized GDP growth of 1.8 percent during the 10 years from 2007 to 2017.
In other industries some of the factors responsible for this under-performance, according to the report, include declining life cycles, high competition, declining consumer demand and technology changes, which all continue to be detrimental for many of these 10 industries.
