News Sacked Russian historian speaks at Masaryk University
A Russian historian sacked from his post following criticism of the occupation by Russia of Crimea spoke on Friday at Brno's Masaryk University. Andrej Zubov accepted the opportunity after turning down an offer to teach at Brno, one of several offers from foreign universities after he was dismissed from Moscow's State Institute for International Relations. He angered authorities by comparing Russia's actions over Crimea to Nazi Germany's policies ahead of WWII, including the takeover of Austria and seizure of the Sudetenland. In Brno on Friday, Mr Zubov stressed that the Putin regime was "not Russia", saying there were Russians at home who opposed steps taken by the regime in neighbouring Ukraine.

Jan Hus celebrations highlight reformer priest's legacy
The Czech Republic is marking the 600th anniversary of the burning at stake of reformer priest Jan Hus with two days of events highlighting his legacy. They include celebratory masses, concerts, theatre performances and, in Prague, outdoor events in the vicinity of Old Town Square which is dominated by the newly-renovated statue of Jan Hus. Bethlehem chapel, where the reformer priest preached has had a new bell cast in his memory which will first ring on Sunday, on the anniversary of his martyr's death at the stake.
Albanian police arrest man suspecting of murdering two Czech tourists
Albanian police have arrested a man suspected to shooting dead two Czech tourists in the northern part of the country on Friday. The tourists were shot on a mountain road near the town of Skadar on their way to a tent camp. The gunman then pushed the car with the dead bodies down a ravine to make it appear an accident. The twenty-six-year old man suspected of the murders was released from prison just a month ago after serving a five year sentence for armed robbery in which a small child was killed.
Police to set up cyber crime squad
The Czech police force is to set up a new cyber crime squad in October, Czech public television reported citing Police Presidium spokeswoman Jana Macaliková. Presently cyber crime is dealt with by regular officers but since the amount of cyber crime has seen a steep increase the police is to get a specialized unit which should deal with such cases faster and more efficiently and cooperate closely with similar units abroad. The cases of cyber crime registered by the police reached 2,500 cases with the damage estimated at one billion crowns in 2014, a year-on-year increase of 30 percent.
ANO party still leading popularity polls
The ANO party of the centre-left governing coalition continues to outstrip its rivals in popularity polls, according to the results of a survey conducted by the TNS Aisa agency. Despite a slight drop in support ANO would currently win general elections with 27 percent of the vote. The Social Democrats of the ruling coalition would come second with 19.5 percent and the Communist party would place third with 13.5 percent of the vote. The opposition right wing TOP 09 party would come forth with 10 percent of the vote and the right wing Civic Democrats would get 8.5 percent. The junior party of the ruling coalition, the Christian Democrats, would only just cross the 5 percent margin needed to win seats in the lower house with 5.5 percent.
Government to debate migrant issue on Wednesday
The government will meet on Wednesday to debate the number of migrants that the country would be capable of taking in over the next two years, Interior Minister Milan Chovanec told Czech Television on Sunday. The minister said that the overall number would be smaller than the 1500 people which the country would have been allocated in the event of quotas. According to the present arrangement EU member states are to take in between 40 and 60 thousand migrants on a voluntary basis in order to alleviate the burden on Greece and Italy. Minister Chovanec said that according to his estimate the Czech Republic would take in several hundred migrants in the next two years. The issue is to be debated at a meeting of EU interior ministers later this month.
Albanians go online to apologize for murder of Czech tourists
Hundreds of Albanians have gone on social networks to apologize for the brutal murder of two Czech tourists on Friday. Shortly after news of the murder broke people from Skadar gathered in the streets to lay flowers and light candles in memory of the victims. Some of them carried Czech flags. Among those who posted words of apology and regret was the popular Albanian music group Revolt Klan. "We just wanted to tell the Czech people that all Albanians are not murders, that what happened is shameful and we greatly regret it," Bruno Pollogati of Revolt Klan told Czech Radio.
Migrants filing for asylum may have to undergo medical tests
Some migrants who file for asylum in the Czech Republic are made to undergo medical tests, Lidové noviny's internet news site reported on Sunday, saying similar practices as in force in other EU member states. This was confirmed by Interior Ministry spokeswoman Hana Mala who said that some migrants lie about their age in order to improve their chances of being granted asylum and if the authorities have serious doubts the applicant is asked to undergo an X-ray of their wrist. According to medical sources this is the easiest way of ascertaining a persons' approximate age with an error margin of one to two years.
Thousands of believers turnout for Velehrad celebrations despite scorching heat
Tens of thousands of believers assembled in Velehrad on Sunday for celebrations honouring the legacy of Ss Cyril and Methodius, Greek missionaries who brought Christianity to the Czech lands. At a celebratory mass, held out in the open despite the scorching heat, the Archbishop of Olomouc Jan Graubner stressed the need to live by Christian values, not just to proclaim them, and to show generosity and goodwill to the migrants in need of help. The Czech Bishops Conference on Saturday reacted to public displays of xenophobia by saying the Catholic Church was prepared to assist the authorities in accepting Christian migrants whose life is at threat. The People of Goodwill Days at Velehrad will culminate with a charity concert on Sunday night.
Czech Bishops´ Conference ready to help with Christian migrants
The Czech Bishops´ Conference has offered the government assistance in accepting Christian migrants whose life is at threat. In a statement issued on Saturday the Czech Bishops´ Conference said it was prepared to call on parishes to accept families of Christian refugees, in cooperation with the local authorities. Local charity organisations should also get involved in the process of providing aid to immigrants, the bishops said. At the same time, they pointed out the need to distinguish economic migrants from refugees fleeing from war, hunger and instability.
Meteorologists issue heat-storm warning
Meteorologists have issued a heat storm warning for the western parts of the country on Saturday afternoon and evening, predicting torrential rain and hailstones in places. Afternoon heat-storms are expected across the country in the next two days when temperatures should hit 37 degrees Celsius. The tropic heatwave should break mid-week although a long-term forecast for July predicts above average temperatures for the entire month.

This is merely a blend of mineral oil with tiny amounts of aloe, various plant extracts, and vitamins. The antioxidant properties of the vitamins won't shield skin from sun damage. If anything, consumers should question the ethics of a company promoting sun protection and tan-attaining products. Disingenuous is one way to put it, but I can think of harsher words! This is only recommended if you long to return to the days when slathering baby oil on skin and baking in the sun was seen as a healthy summer activity. By all medical standards today, this practice is viewed as the fast track to skin damage and, potentially, skin cancer.
Infused with the rare extracts and oils of banana, carrot and coconut, Banana Boat Dark Tanning Oil with no SPF smells as good as it feels going on. Apply generously before worshipping the sun for skin so rich, dark and silky you can't help showing it off.

Banana Boat At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive and widely distributed; various textures to please a wide variety of skin types and preferences; great selection of self-tanning products; some good sunscreen options with avobenzone or titanium dioxide (check labels carefully); excellent lip balm.
Weaknesses: Several sunscreens lack sufficient UVA-protecting ingredients; several sunscreens carry SPF ratings that are miserably low; clear spray sunscreen products include iritating alcohol; a selection of products that promote tanning; no sunscreens for sensitive skin; problematic sunscreens for kids and babies (due to their mild-as-water and gentleness claims).
As the summer months approach, Banana Boat's sunscreens are often seen lining drugstore and supermarket shelves along with those from Coppertone and Neutrogena. It's puzzling how many retailers choose to spotlight sunscreen during the few warmest months of the year even though the need for daily, year-round sun protection is well-established. Yes, people do spend more time outdoors and at the beach when the weather is sunny and warm, but if your goal is to avoid wrinkles, discolorations, and the potential for skin cancer, daily sun protection is a must, because sun damage occurs whenever skin is exposed to daylight and the sun's cancer-causing rays travel right through windows.
That said, does Banana Boat have you covered? Despite the fact that the majority of their products were reformulated in late 2006 with ongoing reformulations throughout the next two years, the answer is "No." It is shocking to me that cosmetics companies (especially those whose entire marketing angle is sun protection) are still launching new sunscreens without suitable UVA-protecting ingredients. Many of Banana Boat's sunscreens include avobenzone (and, to a lesser extent, titanium dioxide) for sufficient UVA protection—but why not follow suit with all of them? As is, the company's mantra of "Celebrate the Sun" will leave your skin vulnerable to cumulative damage unless you choose their products very carefully. Several of the sunscreens that get the critical issue of UVA protection right suffer from a drying alcohol base or problematic preservatives. Then there's the fact that Banana Boat believes that part of celebrating the sun involves promoting products that encourage you to tan. When it comes to a making a clear statement on safety under the sun, these products really miss the boat by trying to appeal to sun worshippers and those who take sun protection for themselves and their children seriously!

We can remember testing at Lions dragstrip one afternoon in 1970 when Dick Arons and Wally Booth rolled in with their clean, emerald green '68 Camaro Pro Stocker. Dick wrenched, Wally drove. Guru Jim McFarland was at Edelbrock then and he came to watch the proceedings and help with the tuning. We went about our business but kept our good eye on the green car nonetheless. McFarland and Arons hovered over the engine compartment. Booth strapped in. We watched as he made a strong, clean lap. Then cheers and huzzahs boomed from the Pro Stock camp. They'd clipped off their first unofficial 9-second pass. Just a scoche less than 10, but a 9-second lap at that.
Arons was about our age, mid-20s, maybe younger though he looked about 17. We wondered out loud how such a kid could possess so much knowledge of the craft. (Hint: he was tight with Bill Jenkins.) We'd been watching him ever since he and Gordy Foust had campaigned the Garnet Red Super Stock/E '69 Camaro, the car they used to win class at the NHRA Springnationals in Dallas, circa '69. Gordy drove. The wrenches of the day were Joe Hrapkowski and none other than Richard Maskin (just plain Rich back then). These guys ran the circuit, all the time sponsored by Berger Chevrolet (Grand Rapids, MI) and by secondary partner Motion Performance. It was a marriage of equal convenience. Berger sold parts to Dick at cost and Dick sold Berger speed equipment at the same rate. Then things escalated sharply. Arons partnered with Booth for the fledgling NHRA Pro Stock circus, first in the green Camaro and then, in '71, on a full factory deal with an AMC Gremlin.
Arons' deal with Berger Chevy was to use the Camaro until the end of the year and then ante up. Dick ran an ad in the Nov. 21, 1969, issue of National Dragster to sell the car in order to pay Berger off. Dick Wolverton bought the red Camaro a month later. By then, the rules had changed and Super Stock cars were allowed any rear axle and wheel tubs to accommodate the 32-inch tires. When Wolverton moved to Florida, he dragged the artifact with him. After 15 years of service, Wolverton parked it. It sulked in his garage on four flat tires. Mold blanketed the seats and tried to become one with the car. The last time he'd fired the engine was in 1986.
Now crank up to summer of 2003. Ah, the world was definitely a different place. Enter GMMG's (www.gmmginc.net) 40-year old Matt Murphy (Marietta, GA). Matt is responsible for the modern renditions of the ZL1 Camaros, Dick Harrell Edition Camaros, and countless dealer-branded high-performance Camaros. Chevy in his blood? Oh, you bet graybeards. His dad Matt Sr. spent 37 years with GM Corporate. Baby Matt slid headfirst into the plate and his very first ride in anything was in his pop's '65 Corvette Coupe. His dad always had one, so Matt grew up around the mystique of the marque and all it represented.
Matt is also a collector. He's got '67, '68, and '70 Camaros and was looking hard for a '69 COPO big-block. His avocation led eventually to his reason for life. "I enjoy working on the new Camaros and collecting the old ones. I believe knowing the history of the old Camaros and what is collectible has helped me to build some of the most unique 4th-generation Camaros for limited Chevy dealers and the Camaro brand team."
Three years ago, he found his desire huddling in Wolverton's garage. "I then noticed the 209 miles on odometer," said Matt. "I asked Dick about them and he said that the car had been a drag car its whole life and was never tagged for the street, so the odometer registered a 1/2-mile at a time [1/4 mile down and 1/4-mile back to the pits]."
Matt was in a quandary: should he flat restore the piece or make modifications as part of its rehabilitation? "When I found out about the unique history of the car, I decided that it needed a complete restoration and wanted to bring it back to its 1969 racing look," offered Matt. "NHRA rules for 1969 didn't require a roll bar but the rear axle had to be stock, so I decided to get rid of the Dana axle and the tubs."
After purchasing the old Berger drag car in June of 2003, Murphy hauled it to the Camaro Superfest in Detroit later that month. Matt Berger had informed Murphy that Dick Arons Race Engines was still in business in the same location as it was in 1969, off 12 mile Road in Berkley. And there were specific others who knew the history of the car at the show. Brain Henderson, Joe Swezey and Frank Arone operate Supercar Workshop in Latrobe, PA. "I knew that they were the ones to do it," said Matt. "They knew the history of the car and the legacy of Dick Arons and Gordy Foust.
Serendipity ramped up. Matt dragged the hulk to Berkley on a fact-finding/blow-Arons'-mind tour. Murphy said, "I didn't know how old Dick was and was very surprised to find him still in business and working there that Monday morning.
"I asked him if he remembered this car and showed him one of the old photos. He looked at it and said, 'My old Super Stock Camaro.' I asked if he thought much about the car or if he'd seen it since 1969 and he said, 'Well, I remember building the guy who bought it from me a few motors in the early '70s and I haven't seen it since the Gatornationals in 1971. Then I asked if he'd like to see it. His eyes flickered and then lit up. 'You have my old car?'
Arons couldn't believe his old car was still around and in such good condition. "We talked about restoring it and I asked him right then if he'd build me a new 427 motor for it and told him we'd restore it to '69 race condition. He was excited to be part of it again, I could tell, as he said, 'Sure, I can do that for you.'
"And then just before the restoration began in December of '03, my friend Greg in Atlanta said that he knew someone named Gordy Foust. He said that Gordy was into drag racing. I thought it couldn't be the same guy, but Greg insisted and said he would find his number and call him. A day later, Greg called me and said, 'It's him, he wants to come see his old car.' The next day Gordy came by with his scrapbook and a few friends of his from Detroit.

Ive been meaning to post this for awhile. Weekend 1, obviously the sandstrom happened on sunday. By our camp shit was everywhere, peoples tents and canopies were gone (fortunately our whole camp was 100% in tact). Basically it looked like a dump. Well...the girl next to us lost her tent and any other means of sleeping quarters....so this is what she came up with. When I woke up at like 8am on monday morning I seriously thought she was dead....all of our camp did. She wasnt moving, no visible signs of breathing.
^ Looks like she suffocated herself with a plastic bag over her head after watching RHCP.
not funny, but I saw a large Aussy using a big ass pvc pole to help him walk (limping bad). Ran into him at the beer garden and asked, 'what happened' cause there's no way he came with the pole...he'd of had crutches. Said his foot got stepped on at a mosh pit and tore a bunch of ligaments in his foot. Damn....we talked for a bit and off he went.
didn't see anything amazingly funny this past year....seemed people were not as costumed up as in years past...which I'm glad.
I saw a ripped black man wearing nothing but a fanny pack. His junk was covered nicely and he was just so confident in his lack of clothing. Best thing of the weekend.
Sometimes, salvation comes in strange forms. Sometimes it's in the form of a pulsing beat, pretty lights, and finally allowing yourself to experience unfiltered joy. So it's not hilarious or sad, it was a really important moment for her, and something that has stuck with her and enriched her as a person. And it's not the kind of thing that needs to be approved by some low, pathetic internet troll.

As the old saying goes, "The end of one man's garage space is the start of another man's project." OK, we made that up. Nevertheless, it's true for so many of us-we tenaciously hang onto parts or engines or even entire cars, certain that sometime in the future we'll actually make something of our cache of go-fast goodies. Often, however, that future happens for the next guy-the one who gets a smokin' deal when all that stuff just finally has to go. In this case, the treasure to be had was a complete LS1 engine with a spun bearing, minus coil packs, available for a ridiculously low $250 when the previous owner just had to get it out of his garage. You can be sure we'll be putting this bargain find to good use, starting with its re-creation by Turn Key Engine Supply into a stout-and carbureted-383 stroker.
The decision to add some capacity to this LS1 ended up being something of a no-brainer. The motor had to come apart, and the damage caused by the spun bearing was severe enough to require a new crankshaft. Therefore it made sense to increase the stroke and add some displacement to our Gen III creation. In fact, this is really the only practical way to gain more cubes with the aluminum LS1 block, since bore increases are limited with the factory pressed-in cast-iron liners. A very minimal overbore-0.005 inch to 3.905 inches-along with an increase in stroke from 3.62 to 4.00 inches, yielded that magic Chevy stroker number: 383 ci.
As for component choice in the lower end, we plan to lean on this thing pretty hard, so we wanted to create a bulletproof short-block. The factory six-bolt main configuration is a more-than-solid foundation. Once it was filled it with a 4340 forged-steel Lunati crank and 4340 rods (6.125 inches long, a hair longer than the factory 6.098 pieces) along with JE Forged Side Relief (FSR) pistons that brought us in at a pump-gas-friendly 10.3:1 compression ratio, we knew we'd devised a bottom end that could handle anything we threw at it. And by "anything," we mean forced induction. But that's another story.
When it came to our heads and cam combo, we were primarily focused on making high-rpm horsepower, hopefully without totally sacrificing lower-end grunt. We went for the bottom-of-the-page choice and picked out a Comp Cams XER287HR. It's a big cam for an LS motor. According to Comp's Billy Godbold, the engine's basic architecture incorporates a very stiff valvetrain (thanks in part to the cam's 55mm core size). What does this all mean? The lobes are quicker, for one, getting the valves open further, faster. It also means that less duration is lost to valvetrain deflection, so they stay open longer. In short, the engine gets every bit of lift and duration promised on the cam card.
We teamed the big 'stick with AFR's 205cc LS1 Mongoose heads, which enabled us to kill two birds with one stone. On the one hand, these heads flow extremely well and are designed to accommodate LS1, LS2, or LS6 powerplants displacing as much as 408 ci, so they lend themselves to the high-rpm power we were seeking. On the other hand, the 205cc intake openings are designed to maintain high port velocity, which helps out with bottom-end power. "At low speeds, smaller ports do a better job of filling the cylinders," says AFR's Tony Mamo. "They really shine in the real world, making the engine more responsive at in everyday, part-throttle situations. These types of gains are rarely measured on a dyno, as most testing is done at WOT."
1. We topped our Victor Jr. LS1 manifold with a Holley 750 Street HP carb; best power numbers were obtained with a Wilson Manifolds 1-inch tapered combo spacer in place.
2. MSD's 6LS ignition controller is a real plug-and-play deal. You can use preprogrammed timing curve modules or program it with a laptop if desired.
3. MSD coil packs and Super Conductor wires provide higher-energy sparks for hi-po setups.
4. AFR 205cc LS1 Mongoose cylinder heads flow big numbers with high port velocity-the Holy Grail of head design.
5. This bargain-find Gen III block is filled with bulletproof internals from Lunati, JE, and Comp.
6. Need a little bling on your LS? The chrome balancer and bolt from Turn Key runs $225.
7. QTP makes this trick two-piece timing cover, allowing cam changes without disturbing the crank pulley.

House dust mites have received much attention in the early 1990s
and again recently. The house dust mite is nearly impossible to see
without magnification and is named for the fact that they feed on
dead skin shed by humans as well as other protein materials.
Powderpost beetles lay their eggs in cracks of wood and the
larvae tunnel into the surface, filling it with a very fine
powder-like dust. Powderpost beetles have long, narrow, flat bodies
that allow them to easily attack wood surfaces. These beetles are
reddish-brown in color.
Varied carpet beetles get their name from the rainbow of color
on their back surfaces.
Water-conducting fungi is a special brown rot that causes
widespread wood decay. It has the ability to conduct sufficient
water from 30 feet or more away from the original moisture source
via its rhizomorphs, dense masses of filaments forming a root-like
structure. There are two different species: 1. Poria incrassata is
found primarily along the Pacific Coast and in the southeastern
United States. 2. Merulius lacrymans (also called the "teardrop
fungus") is found primarily in the northeastern states and across

The BP Portrait Award, now in its twenty-third year, is one of Britains most prestigious art prizes, and is the leading showcase for artists throughout the world specialising in portraiture.
Last year more than 320,000 people visited the exhibition, which is based on the competition open to all artists aged eighteen and over from around the world.
The catalogue features sixty works from an international list of artists, which together display a diverse range of styles and painterly techniques. It also includes a fascinating essay by bestselling poet and childrens novelist Michael Rosen.
Michael Rosen is a childrens novelist, poet and broadcaster. He was appointed the fifth Childrens Laureate in 2007, an honour he held until 2009, and has written some 140 books, including Were Going on a Bear Hunt and Mustard, Custard, Grumble Belly and Gravy. His latest book, Even My Ears are Smiling, was published in 2011.

Coldblack® finish allows the heat to be reflected unlike common dark textiles, which absorb heat, allowing the wearer to avoid overheating even during physical activity.
The Course Superleggera combines superlight with super breathable through the side panels which are constructed of Delfino. Delfino has a dimpled mesh structure that absorbs less and dries quickly. A lower constructed front panel makes for what we term the Nature Calls Panel for easy and fast pit stops.

He^> The United SUtes Civil Service Com¬ mission announces that on October 13, at Freeport N. Y., an open com¬ petitive examination will be held for the positions of clerk and city carrier in the post office at the place first specified. Clerks in offices of the (irst and sec¬ ond classes, snd carriers in the city delivery service, are divided into five grades, the salaries of which are $800, $900, $1000. $1100 and $1200 per an¬ num re8p«-ct'!vely. Clerks at first- class offices will be promoted succes¬ sively, a grade at a time, to $1100, and clerks and carriers at second-class offices will be promoted in the same manner to $1000. From the eligibles resulting from this examination it is expected that certification will be made to fill ex¬ isting and future vacancies. For application blank and "Instruc¬ tions to ApplicanU," address Wilfred H. Smith, seqi^Ury of the Board of United SUtes Civil Service Examin¬ ers at the poat offiee. VILLAGE TRUSTEES All the members of the Board were present at the meeting last Thursday afternoon. With Village Clerk Shea back at his desk after his "vacation" resulting from his recent auto acci¬ dent. H. E. Rider, reader of electric ligljt meters, was authorized to purchase a new bicycle. It was decided to order a carload of gravel for reserve use on village streets. Clerk Shea was directed to secure bids for the sidewalk on property on Grove Street, south of Merrick Soad, where the road grade was raised after the walk was laid. Charles .A. Reitineyer, from the Plazji Theatre, appeared and asked the Board to place a light of possibly 400 or 500 candle power at the west end of his place. He said his patrons were losing autos ni(jht after night; he had tried the proposition of hav¬ ing a man wateh the cars, but with no results. If the Board would install the light and connect it to his meter, he would attend to its maintenance. The Board members expressed their opinions favorable to the petition, and asked Village Lineman Walling to advise them, at the next meeting, as to the cost, after consultation with Engineer William R. Smith. A letter was read from the S. P. C. C, askinjr the Board to adopt a "Cur¬ few Law," requiring all girls to be off the streets after a certain hour at night. The Board was of the opinion that such an ordinance was unneces¬ sary and the petition was "laid on the table for future consideratioan if oc¬ casion arises. .A resolution was passed that the Health Oflicer notify all persons sell¬ ing milk in the village limits to take out n r'il'-: permit within ten days, or oe liable to prosecution lor a misde¬ meanor. This applies not only to dealers, but to persons having one or more cows and selling a little of the milk to their neigh'bors. The conii)fnsalion of 11. p]. Rider was raised to $90 a month from $85, beginning October 1. The following applications were granted: For sidewalks, -Nelson Raynor F^s- tate, 31 No. Ocean -Avenue, 4x50 ft.; Thomas Gaiton, Waverly Place, 4x50 ft.; also application of -Mr. Gaiton for light Bids for a sink for the house of Hose Co.

Eventually, he settled on a pair of charges. First, he charged Ryan with "Operating a bike on the roadway." He also charged Ryan with "Failure to comply with an order." As the Deputy later explained in his testimony, the problem was that he wanted to charge the two riders with impeding traffic, but couldn't find the appropriate law for a bike. This was because he didn't understand that cyclists are subject to the same laws as other vehicle operators, and therefore, if they were impeding traffic, they should have been charged with impeding traffic. Instead, the Deputy believed that the law required cyclists to obey all traffic rules applicable to vehicles, and that busting Ryan for "Operating a bike on the roadway" covered violations of other laws, like impeding traffic. Ryan says that two weeks later, the prosecutor added an "impeding traffic" charge to cover the violation that the Deputy thought Ryan had committed.
Meanwhile, at the Lawrence County Sheriff's Office, Tony was also charged with "Operating a bike on the roadway"; he says that later, as the prosecutor did with Ryan, an additional charge of "impeding traffic" was added. Due to the circumstances surrounding the arrest Tony was also charged with failure to comply with an order, resisting arrest, attempted assault on an officer and obstructing official business.
Ryan says that as his trial date approached, the prosecutor offered him a deal--testify against Tony, and the charges against Ryan would be dropped. Ryan says that he refused to save himself by "throwing Tony under the bus," as he puts it. So, with the case against Ryan scheduled to go to trial, Ryan's attorney filed a motion to dismiss the charges. Tony's attorney did the same.
In its decision following the hearing on the motion to dismiss Tony's charges, the Court began by noting that the state had the burden of proving that the arrest was consistent with the 4th Amendment, but that the state must only meet that burden by a "preponderance of the evidence," rather than the higher "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard. This means that the state would simply have to prove that it was more likely than not that the arrest was consistent with the 4th Amendment; this is the easiest burden of proof.
The central question was whether Tony had been impeding traffic. If the state proved that it was more likely than not that Tony had been impeding traffic, then the order to pull over was lawful, and the arrest for failure to comply with that order was also lawful; if that was the case, the charges would not be dismissed. On the other hand, if the state failed to prove that Tony had been impeding traffic, then the order to pull over was not lawful, and the subsequent arrest for failure to comply was also not lawful, and the charges would be dismissed.
This meant that the prosecution had to show that Tony was riding at a speed that was unreasonably slow for a cyclist--a task that proved impossible, once the Deputy testified that he estimated the cyclists' speed at 15-20 MPH, but didn't really know how fast they were going, and admitted that he didn't know what the speed limit on that road is, within the city limits. There was simply no evidence that the cyclists had ever impeded traffic, and thus, the Deputy had no reason to stop the cyclists, and they could not be charged with failure to comply with his orders. The charges were dismissed.
Later, at the hearing on the motion to dismiss the charges against Ryan, the prosecutor was once again unable to prove the impeding traffic charge, and the Court reached the same decision that it reached following Tony's hearing, dismissing the charges against Ryan.

Assassin's Creed 3 'Revolution' multiplayer event now live
Assassin's Creed 3's first multiplayer event is now live, Ubisoft has announced. Titled "Revolution", the event introduces three challenges, each with a "very special reward".
"Revolution is about to explode in the 13 colonies.
In this period of violence, survival is key, even if that means crushing others…
Will you be ready to work as a team to defend yourselves and your territories from others?"
Now, onto the challenges, and remember that you can only access the event by selecting "Events" in the main menu:
- Participation Challenge: the only condition for this is to participate in the event at any point before it ends. (Yes, you will be rewarded for this.)
- Individual Challenge: this challenge requires *you* to accomplish a certain objective. And obviously, the reward for that one is more interesting than the reward for the Participation Challenge.
- Community Challenge: this challenge requires a massive effort on behalf of the community to unlock the reward – and that one is a very special one.
What are your thoughts on the Assassin's Creed 3 multiplayer so far?

NCM Fathom brings the ultimate stage spectacle - The Met: Live in HD - to movie theatre screens nationwide. The transmission of Rossini's opera Armida will be presented live for only one day on Saturday, May 1, 2010 at 1 PM ET / 10 AM PT in select movie theatres. This mythical story of a sorceress who enthralls men in her island prison has inspired operatic settings by a multitude of composers, including Gluck, Haydn, and Dvo?ák. Renée Fleming stars in the title role of Rossini's version, opposite no fewer than six tenors. Tony Award winner Mary Zimmerman returns to direct this new production of a work she describes as "a buried treasure, a box of jewels." The fanciful and magical tale, Zimmerman says, "has an epic, enchanted quality and a tremendous visual element.

MILTON — A Navarre man has been found guilty of soliciting sexual acts from a child and transmitting child pornography, according to the office of State Attorney Bill Eddins.
A Santa Rosa County jury convicted Michael V. Harsanje, 36, after a jury trial that concluded Friday.
In June 2011, Harsanje sent an email to an undercover police officer in Springhill, La. The officer was posing as a 14-year-old girl online, according to the state attorney's office.
Harsanje chatted with the officer for several weeks using the screen name "bored_inthe_cold." During that time, he solicited sexual acts and transmitted child pornography and other obscene materials.
The IP address he was using was tracked to a home in Navarre, according to Harsanje's arrest report. Santa Rosa County Sheriff's deputies first arrested him on the charges in December 2011.
On the arrest report, Harsanje's employer is listed as the Air Force. He had been stationed at Hurlburt Field.
Harsanje was found guilty of using a computer to facilitate or solicit the sexual conduct of a child, possessing photos that include sexual conduct by a child and three counts of transmission of harmful material to a minor.
He faces a maximum of 25 years in prison.
Sentencing is set for March 12.

Some people have mentioned wanting to have an easy-to-embed photo gallery for their pages, so I started working on something in flash.
I know that there are some pretty high-end solutions out there for reasonable prices (including the excellent Slide Show Pro, which may work well for people looking for a more robust solution), but I wanted to build something that would fit into both our templates and image box styles.
At any rate, I have a rough version going at
and would be interested collaborating with someone (or multiple people) to get it working a bit smoother before it gets distributed more widely.
Right now, it's a swf that displays and transitions photos and text from an XML file, so it can be edited externally pretty easily without re-exporting a flash file. Ideally, we'd build 3 or 4 sizes and then distribute the SWF files along with documentation to people who wanted to use it.
If anyone who knows Actionscript wants to take a crack at working on it, just let me know and I'll forward along the FLA file.

High Performance Brake PadsFor your 2007 Nissan Sentra
$51.74 - $70.88
$89.42 - $132.37
$130.20 - $220.33
$111.38 - $115.17
$85.13 - $92.21
Brake Pad Performance
Performance brake pads are made from a variety of compounds. This mixture ensures a higher friction rate than OEM brake pads and a higher resistance to heat. This basic, but effective combination provides better stopping ability, reduced fade, and much better overall performance. Certain mixtures are better for certain driving applications. STILLEN manufactures our own selection of high performance brake pads. In addition to STILLEN's Metal Matrix Brake Pad line, we also partner with these great brake pad manufacturers to bring you the industry's highest quality option when it comes to high performance brake pads:
The performance brake pads we offer can be separated into three different categories. Brake pads for racing, brake pads for street use, and brake pads for both street and track use.
Street Brake Pads
Racing Brake Pads
Racing brake pads are manufactured for maximum performance during extreme conditions at the track. The compound mixture used to produce racing brake pads allow for excellent braking ability at temperatures in excess of 1,300 degrees Fahrenheit. Racing brake pads are not for the street, they need heat to be effective. Racing brake pads are ideal for HPDE racing, time attack, and time trials. We offer only the best premium quality racing brake pads. Never try to use brake pads that were designed for track use on your everyday vehicle.
Street and Racing Brake Pads
Brake pads that are manufactured for use on the street and at the track are an excellent option for the racing enthusiast that drives to the track regularly. No need to swap brake pads when you get to the track and once again when you leave. The compound mixture used in the manufacturing process allows for superb braking ability at a wide range of brake pad temperatures. Below are premium high performance street/track brake pads that are available for purchase.
If you are unsure of the performance brake pad that fits your driving habits, give us a call at (866)250-5542 and one of our brake pad experts will inform you of the best options that will fit within your budget.
