Classical Music on Autumn Sunday Mornings at the Royal Albert Hall
25 July, 2011
The Royal Albert Hall and their neighbours at the Royal College of Music have reunited once again for another season of Classical Coffee Mornings. The autumn 2011 series of Sunday morning concerts gives audiences the chance to listen to outstanding talent from the College as their students give classical recitals in the Hall's Elgar Room. With a continued inclusive offer that includes a hot drink and a pastry, this is the perfect opportunity to relax on a Sunday morning whilst listening to some truly exceptional musicians.
From classical to contemporary, these concerts give students a unique chance to demonstrate their talent and interact with a live audience whilst highlighting the long-standing connection between both venues. This history goes as far back as Wednesday 2 July 1884 when students held their first fortnightly recital in this space, then known as the West Theatre. Since then the College has seen a rich and diverse range of alumni pass through their doors including Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber, Julian Lloyd Webber, Benjamin Britten, Sir Andrew Davis, Sir Colin Davies, Gustav Holst, John Lill, Sir Malcolm Sargent and Dame Joan Sutherland, many of whom have performed or have seen their work performed on the main stage at the Royal Albert Hall. It seems only fitting that the Royal College of Music have returned to this redeveloped space some 126 years later to continue the work of their predecessors.
Audiences will again be treated to the tones of the Big Red Yamaha S6 Grand Piano which has been kindly loaned from Markson Pianos. The only one of its kind in the UK, this piano was originally made for and played by Sir Elton John but has also been used on ITV's The X Factor.
Full Listings:Gagliano Ensemble start the autumn Classical Coffee Morning series on Sunday 9 October. This violin and piano duo will perform Bartok, Debussy and Eugene Ysaye.
Dynamic duo Louise Adler and John Paul Ekins take to the Elgar Room stage on Sunday 16 October. Both are prize-winning young artists and their programme will include works by Rubbra, Strauss and Bernstein.
We welcome Huw Wiggin to Classical Coffee Mornings on Sunday 23 October, entertaining audiences with a mixture of piano and saxophone and performing Bonneau, Rachmaninoff and Bernstein.
Eleanor Dennis and Craig White join the line up on Sunday 30 October. This soprano and piano duo perform a varied programme to include Britten's On This Island, Schumann songs, Debussy, Schubert and Mozart and Handel arias.
The bassoon and piano duo Freddie and Lydia Scadding perform together on Sunday 13 November with a programme that includes Bitsch, Telemann, Berg and Schoof.
Finally we welcome Elmar Gasanov to conclude the summer series on Sunday 11 December who will perform works by Beethoven, Chopin, Scriabin and Ligeti.

Cannabis plant care
Cannabis plant care
Cannabis plants thrive best when they receive specific care, keeping in mind that all plants have their own care requirements.
Growth substances in the plant itself
A plant produces it's own growth substances, which can be compared with hormones produced by the human body. These substances are produced in the stem in the tip of the roots. The plant's juices then transport growth substances throughout the plant to all growing parts. These growth substances determine where a plant is capable of flowering and growing; some plants thrive in warm climates, while others are built for colder climates. Also, other crucial factors are the type of soil and the amount of light.
Living conditions that enable cannabis plants to flower
A plant that requires sun, but is placed in the shade usually won't survive. However, many plants have the ability to adapt to extreme conditions. For example: Trees in dense forests develop high branches, whereas the lower branches remain underdeveloped or die.
What is bad for cannabis plants?
Aspects that influence a cannabis plant negatively are:
- Drought
- Cold
- Wind
- Too much light
- Insufficient light
- Poor soil
- Heavy soil
Soil containing too little iron will cause plants to look pale, like when humans contain too little iron in their blood. For good plant growth, soil must contain sufficient salts with nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, sulfur, iron and magnesium therein. Too much of any one of these minerals is not good. Too much copper or zinc wil lead to disease and abnormalties.
A cannabis plant does not need enormous amounts of oxygen. They do however consume more carbon dioxide, producing oxygen for the surrounding area. Still, at night this proces is reversed and the plant then requires more oxygen. This is due to lack of light disrupting the photosynthesis process.
When do cannabis plants grow and flower best?
Plants manage their own photosynthesis process but still requires some help:
- Care
- Growth substances
- Living conditions

THE AMERICAN inventor who recently won the well publicised patent on the single chip computer is still likely to face a long and expensive legal battle. As soon as Gilbert Hyatt tries to enforce his patent, the chip firms affected are sure to fight tooth and nail to prove that his patent claims a monopoly on technology which was not new at the time of filing.
Hyatt prevailed over the US Patent Office after 21 years and was finally issued with the patent in July 1990. But despite speculation of $200 million in royalties, Hyatt's best chance of collecting is to find a large company willing to fight for him, in return for either a lump sum buy-out or percentage of any winnings.
The dispute could drag on for as long as the patent took to grant, because the files of the US Patent Office give the objectors plenty of ...

Although bottled water may be needed in emergencies such as when local drinking water is contaminated, the bottled water industry, led by Nestlé,Coca Cola,and Pepsi Cola,is aggressively promoting non-essential uses of bottled water. The withdrawal of large quantities of water from springs and aquifers for bottling has depleted household wells in rural areas, damaged wetlands, and degraded aquifers. In the United States alone, more than 10 billion plastic water bottles end up as garbage or litter each year.

The Sussex chicken is a dual purpose utility breed that is also popular on the show scene and relatively easy to keep. They come in eight colours - Brown, Buff, Coronation, Light, Red, Speckled, Silver, White (that are standardised in the UK). They are also available in bantam versions.
Sussex chickens are upright, alert, and usually docile. The Sussex Chicken has a wide, flat back, a deep breast and broad shoulders. Their tail is held at 45 degrees. They have a single comb and red earlobes and comb. They are good foragers and the Light Sussex is often used to create hybrids. When crossed with a 'gold' cockerel, they will produce sex-linked chicks. They rarely go broody.
The Speckled Sussex was created in Britain in the 18th Century, first appearing at a poultry show in 1845. Other colours were soon created with different crosses but the Buff Sussex didn't appear until 1920. The Coronation Sussex was created for the coronation of King Edward VIII in 1936 (this didn't actually happen because he abdicated and his younger brother became King George VI) but there were very few birds by the beginning of WW2. We have found one strain of the original Large Fowl remaining but Coronation Sussex were re-created and re-introduced by Rob Whittington. Large Fowl are very Rare.
The original Speckled Sussex chickens are thought to be a cross between white fleshed table birds and an imported Asiatic bird like the Brahma. The modern strains of Sussex will lay around 180 to 190 medium sized light brown eggs in a year for you without artificial lighting. They are a popular white fleshed chicken used for producing meat. The chicks of all of the varieties are fast to mature, with the exception of the speckled that takes a little longer.
Photo: Light Sussex Cockerel - Best of Breed at the National 2010.
Light Sussex have 'silver' plumage which when crossed with a 'gold' cockerel, such as a Rhode Island Red, will produce sex-linked chicks.

Can I Trade My Prius for a Buick?
Oh, how youngsters grow.
Hunter Mahan notched his first career PGA Tour victory on the Big Boys Tour while Dobson Ranch native Chez Reavie broke through on the Nationwide.
The good news – Mahan went from solid college player making checks on the PGA Tour to President Cup hopeful and Reavie has all but locked up his PGA Tour card, going from 19th to fifth on the money list.
Now onto the Buick Open, an event where the main attraction is a guy that wears huge black button-up shirts and appeals to as many women as Horatio Sanz.
A few storylines going in this week :
Furyk's Freaky Side - Never underestimate the power of a Wildcat. Jimmy hasn't won this year, but has notched seven top-10s at Warwick Hills. Being the headliner, will Mr. Furyk pull through after a second at the U.S. Open?
Charles (Was) In Charge - Remember when Charles Howell III was cashing checks like a Chase in Times Square? Well, Like A-Rod, Howell has cooled, even shooting a third round 80 at the Memorial before withdrawing. The kid wonder has been cut three of his last six events and has finished over par in eight of his last nine tourneys. Howell plays on confidence and needs a good finish to get it back.
DiMarco Di-Done - Remember when Chris DiMarco should have won the 2005 Masters over Tiger Woods? That chip was oh-so-close to dropping on 18. Well, the fluctuating Florida Gator has only three top-25s this year, and is ranked 100 or more in every stat except putting. I hope he doesn't read this and start yelling at me through the computer.
There ya go – enjoy the Buick or just continue to think about the British…it shall be here soon enough.

alternative solutions for down under problems,,,
hey i feel your pain regarding having stuff that is esoteric and no one local to fix it...
the solution of course is to switch the lacing from X-lace to conventional,,,
this is accomplished by several techniques
1,,drilling out a set of nipples to be used as an adapter for filling the old nipple hole to smaller diameter spokes,,,this system routinely loosens up because of seating issues and the spoke bend being too far away with no support..
2,, the buchanan technique of making special double threaded spokes and threading in the hub nipple first,,,have re-done several because of the tendency of spokes snapping at the bend right where the threads end...the weakest part of a spoke
3,,the bullet proof special Monzter spoke kit,,essentially a swedged 4gx.175 spoke custom speced to fill the hole,,,
looks like this:
of late we have been sending superlace kits as well as tire sealing kits to folks in far off lands,,to minimize S&H expenses....your local wheel wizards should have no problem lacing/truing these set-ups,,,we charge a lil extra for blue printing the rims
hope this helps
for more details ask these questions in the special ''ask woody about oyur wheels ''thread in the vendor section.
if you are spending so much time in the dirt and happen to ride hard enought o bend your oem rims,,perhaps consider going with a 21'' while you are at it,,tremendous improvement,,quite a few mates have converted...

According to R. Geraint Gruffydd he died in 1350, a possible victim of the Black Death. Tradition says that he was buried within the precinct of the Cistercian Strata Florida Abbey, Ceredigion.
He was an innovative poet who was responsible for popularising the metre known as the "cywydd" and first to use it for praise. But perhaps his greatest innovation was to make himself the main focus of his poetry. By its very nature, most of the work of the traditional Welsh court poets kept their own personalities far from their poetry. Dafydd's work is full of his own feelings and experiences. His main theme is love, and many of his poems are addressed to women, but particularly to two of them, Morfudd and Dyddgu. He is also recognised as very fine nature poet. His best-known works include the following poems:

Pediatric Dentistry
Baby Oral Health Program
The Baby Oral Health Program (bOHP) provides an educational setting that allows DDS students and pediatric dental residents to gain hands-on clinical experience in the delivery of infant and toddler oral health. This program takes place in various sites including the Lincoln Community Health Center, a federally-funded health community center in downtown Durham as well as our school-based clinical setting where we provide a dental home for children enrolled in the Early Head Start Program. Other initiatives include the development of our "Baby Oral Health Kit" that includes necessary preparatory materials (DVD, provide flip chart, clinical forms) to provide infant oral health services in clinical practice. As we look towards the future, we anticipate increasing the number of sites to enhance the opportunity for exposure in the clinical management of the youngest and on one of the most vulnerable populations in NC. The BOHP is a critical component of the UNC School of Dentistry's role in addressing the current crisis related to access to care for high-risk children in the state.

No you can not earn points by posting topics.
You can however earn merits based on how many posts you make/reply to others. Such as 100 forum posts = 50 merits / Reach 200 forum posts = 100 merits but you should never abuse the system by spamming.

India is on my bucket list of places to visit. Until I'm able to travel there in person, I pretend travel through its food.
My book club met at India Oven for dinner. The restaurant, located at 1031 Patricia Drive near Churchill High School, serves the cuisine of North India seven days a week. We ordered a variety of items so that everyone could have a taste.
Our feast included Channa Masala, spicy garbanzo beans; Bhini Masala, spiced okra cooked with onions; Sag Paneer, spinach with homemade farmer's cheese; Chicken Korma, chicken in a mild cream sauce with cashews, almonds and raisins; Karahi Lamb, lamb stir fried with bell pepper, onion, tomato and spices; Tandoori Roti, wheat bread; and Vegetable Samosas, pastries stuffed with spiced potatoes and green peas. Everything tasted heavenly, but I loved, loved, loved the Sag Paneer and the Chicken Korma. My tastebuds hadn't been so happy in quite some time. Evidently, India Oven's food keeps plenty of other patrons traveling back for more.
You could also try a Dinner Special for two that includes Vegetable Pakoras, fresh vegetable slices dipped in garbanzo bean batter and deep fried; Tandoori (grilled) Chicken, Tandoori Shrimp, Seekh Kabab, slice minced lamb broiled on skewers; Chicken Makhami, grilled chicken simmered in a tomato sauce and fresh herbs; Sag Paneer; Rice Pilav, saffron-flavored rice; Garlic Nan, leavened bread baked with garlic; and Khir, saffron-flavored rice pudding. The price is $31.99 or $15.99 per person.
A vegetarian dinner special is also an option: Vegetable Samosa; Sag Paneer; Dal, lentils; Navratan Korma, mixed vegetables with homemade cheese in a mild cream sauce with cashews, almonds and raisins; Pratha, buttered and layered whole wheat bread; Rice Pilav; Raita, yogurt with cucumber, tomatoes and potatoes; and Khir, all for $13.99 per person.
India Oven also has a lunch buffet for $8.95 on Mondays through Fridays and $9.95 on Saturdays and Sundays. Their lunch hours are Mondays through Saturdays from 11 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. On Sundays, lunch is from 11:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. Dinner is from 5 p.m. until 10 p.m. on Sundays through Thursdays and 5 p.m. until 10:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.
So until I'm able to see the Taj Mahal with my own eyes, I'll head back to India Oven to tide me over…with a side of Bollywood!
P.S. India Oven is just down the road from Phil Hardberger Park (West) and Phil Hardberger Park (East). Stroll plus brunch? Lunch plus stroll? Dinner and a stroll?

Sounds Divine – will put this restaurant on our bucket list. You can, BTW, go see the wonderful current movie "Hotel Marigold for the Beautiful Elderly" (title is something like that) –
filmed in India – very colorful and busy country.
thanks so for sharing…………xxoo, martJune 21, 2012 2:58 pm
I'll have to test fly this place for my group of seniors that dine out a couple of times a month. Thanks for the reviewJune 21, 2012 3:49 pm
I think you all will LOVE it. My husband is an excellent cook, so I'm usually underwhelmed by most restaurant food. I was NOT underwhelmed at India Oven. Let me know what you think! Thanks for reading/commenting. Cheers, DeniseJune 21, 2012 4:22 pm
Mart, You must try India Oven. Do not miss the Sag Paneer. HEAVENLY! Wish I had some right now. xoxo, DFJune 21, 2012 4:26 pm
Thanks, Denise! Greg and Annalise went to Simi's the other day when I was out of town. I believe that was Annalise's first time to go to an Indian Restaurant. She liked it. Thanks for the tip on India Oven and the suggestions on dishes. We will definitely try it!
PattyJune 21, 2012 6:20 pm
Thanks, Patty! You'll love it. I'll have to give Simi's a try. I've never been there. Cheers, DeniseJune 23, 2012 2:40 pm

Anesthesiology, March 2011 CME
Course Description
The focus of Journal CME is to educate readers on current developments in the science and clinical practice of anesthesiology.
Read the article by Anastasian et al. entitled "Radiation exposure of the anesthesiologist in the neurointerventional suite" on page 512 and the accompanying editorial by Amis entitled "Anesthesiologists in the neurointerventional suite: What is appropriate radiation protection?" on page 477 of this issue.
Anesthesiologists may be exposed to more ocular radiation than the radiologist during interventional procedures in neuroradiology. Many radiologists wear leaded glasses to prevent radiation-induced cataracts; anesthesiologists should consider the same protection.
Course Fee: Member price: $10.00 | Non-member price: $20.00
Learning Objectives:
After completing this activity, the learner should recognize the risk of excessive radiation exposure on subsequent cataract formation; the importance of distance, shielding, and other methods of minimizing radiation exposure when giving anesthesia in the radiology suite; and the potential difference in radiation exposure between interventional and noninterventional procedures.

Apple's popular iPhone and iPad products record an unencrypted log of where users take their portable devices, according to several published reports certain to elevate concerns over the potential for consumer electronics to intrude upon privacy.
The data is also stored on any computers synced to iPhones and iPods, according to reports.
From the Associated Press, via San Jose Mercury News:
It's not clear if other
smartphones and tablet computers are logging such information on their
users. And this week's revelation that the Apple devices do wasn't even
new–some security experts began warning about the issue a year ago.
the worry prompted by a report from researchers Alasdair Allan and Pete
Warden at a technology conference in Santa Clara, Calif., raises
questions about how much privacy you implicitly surrender by carrying
around a smartphone and the responsibility of the smartphone makers to
protect sensitive data that flows through their devices.
of the concern about the iPhone and iPad tracking stems from the fact
the computers are logging users' physical coordinates without users
knowing it–and that that information is then stored in an unencrypted
form that would be easy for a hacker or a suspicious spouse or a law
enforcement officer to find without a warrant.
emphasize that there's no evidence that Apple itself has access to this
data. The data apparently stays on the device itself, and computers the
data is backed up to. Apple didn't immediately respond to a request for
comment by The Associated Press
Two Congressional Democrats, Al Franken of Minnesota and Ed Markey of
Massachusetts, have reacted to the news by demanding Apple CEO Steve
Jobs explain his company's conduct.
As reported in Huffington Post
Franken highlights some of the potential dangers of this system,
noting that anyone who finds a stolen iPhone or iPad could "easily
download and map out a customer's precise movements for months at a
time." The senator also points out that there's no indication the
software can tell the difference between minors and adults meaning that
"the millions of children and teenagers who use iPhone or iPad devices
also risk having their location collected and compromised."
Franken is joined by Representative Ed Markey
in calling for clarity. Both want to know why Apple is collecting this
information, how it is collected, what it is used for and who it's been
shown to. They also want to know why consumers haven't been told their
devices are recording their movements, and why the information has not
been encrypted.
Franken's letter is here. This one is Markey's
Additional coverage at Wall Street Journal, and Engadget . The latter website has a 2010 letter from Apple general counsel Bruce Sewell to Markey and Texas Republican Rep. Joe Barton in response to similar privacy concerns. Sewell's letter observes that Apple discloses its data collection practices in its privacy policy and provides users with an opt-out mechanism.

Timbers' Danso recalled for national team duty
PORTLAND, Ore. – The Portland Timbers today announced that defender Mamadou Danso has been recalled by The Gambia National Team for an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Burkina Faso on Saturday, Oct. 9, in Burkina Faso.
As a result of his call-up, Danso, 27, will miss the first round of the USSF D-2 Pro League playoffs against the Vancouver Whitecaps. In preparation for the qualifier, Danso joined The Gambia National Team for a mini-camp in Belgium.
Danso joins The Gambia National Team for the second time in recent weeks. In early September, he experienced his first match with the national team for an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Namibia.
The Timbers open postseason play in the first round Thursday in Vancouver against the Whitecaps in the first match of the two-game, aggregate-goal series. The series heads to Portland for Game 2 as the Timbers play host to the Whitecaps on Sunday at the University of Portland's Merlo Field at 6 p.m. Individual tickets for the first-round match are $15 and are available for purchase through local Ticketmaster outlets, online at www.ticketmaster.com or by phoning (800) 745-3000.

NYC Pizzeria Tour
Next week, Friday, I'll be going on a NYC pizzeria tour. I'm still trying to finalize the itinerary and rough plan. I'll be sure to report here and I'll also be writing about it primarily on my pizza blog.
Any tips or recommendations for where I should definitely go??
Re: NYC Pizzeria Tour
If you're flying into Newark Airport and getting a rental car, look at:
Santillo's brick oven pizza
639 S. Broad St.
Elizabeth NJ
It's a hole in the wall take out only place, but their sicilian pizza is some of the best in Jersey. Their brick oven is amazing, it's like 18 feet deep. Their peels are so long they have to hang them from the ceiling.
I don't know if it's worth a special trip, but they are really close to Newark airport (which is mostly in Elizabeth)
Re: NYC Pizzeria Tour
If you can get your hands on it easily, look at the front section of Peter Reinhart's American Pie. He lists a whopping number of NYC pizza restaurants, along with his happily subjective comments.
Re: NYC Pizzeria Tour
Top picks from The New York Times :
Pizza, All Locations, Top Pick, All Prices - Restaurant Search Results - The New York Times
Re: NYC Pizzeria Tour
I can't speak for the rest, but Grimaldi's (under the Brooklyn Bridge) is worth a visit. Great pizza. If you go for lunch, get there early (before noon). they only seat around 30 or so and then a line forms out the door and down the sidewalk waiting on a table. You will need cash too, they don't take credit/debit cards.
Re: NYC Pizzeria Tour
This might be a good time to revive the FB Pizza Napoletana Map. We started a project to map all the good wood-fired pizzerias, where users can add their favorites and make comments. We still need to get the word out.
The map is here:
Naples 45 and A Mano are both VPN certified.
What do you think of the map?
Re: NYC Pizzeria Tour
I looked at the map, and didn't see how to add things. It says: click button above to register for map, but there didn't seem to be such a button.
Re: NYC Pizzeria Tour
Give it a try now. You have to register with the mapping service provider to add comments and new pizzerias. I changed the Register Now button to be more intuitive.
Let's see how it goes. If everyone likes the idea, I can keep improving it and start publicizing it.
Re: NYC Pizzeria Tour
Ok, the tour plan is set. There are so many to choose from, we had to just pick. I'll take notes and photos as I can:
1) Grimaldi's Brooklyn (will start there when they open) -- coal pizza
2) Lombardi's (oldest pizzeria)
3) Ray's on Prince St (the "best" of the Ray's, classic NYC style)
4) Waldy's (wood oven pizza)
We may try to go to Una Pizza Napoletana (with a wood oven) for dinner Saturday (they're only open at dinner).
Wednesday afternoon, we're going to John's Pizzeria, north of Times Square, which is supposed to be very good.
The Reinhart list was very helpful, as was the "slice" pizza blog Slice - America's Favorite Pizza Weblog!
Re: NYC Pizzeria Tour
My daughter lived next to that John's for three years and we enjoyed it on all of our trips. Gets real busy being in Time Square. First time that we have ordered garlic bread and it comes with actual cloves within the bread

After reading how the governor wants to raise cigarette taxes to pay for his income tax cut, it made me mad. He wants to make a small part of the state pay for something that everybody will benefit from.
The last time I looked, smoking was legal, and we should not be punished for smoking.
If he doesn't smoke, that is his business, and doing something legal is ours. One group shouldn't try to make another group live like they do just because they don't like their lifestyle.
If the income tax cut is supposed to benefit everyone, then come up with a way that everybody pays their share to make it happen. Quit making smokers the bad guy every time you want to raise money for one of your pet projects.

American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Dec. 22, 2010 Afghan and coalition forces killed two insurgents and found weapons in operations today throughout southern Afghanistan, military officials reported.
Security forces spotted the insurgents planting roadside bombs in Helmand province's Sangin district. The troops engaged the men immediately, killing both on the spot.
Afghan and coalition forces found three weapons caches in Kandahar and Helmand provinces. The stockpiles resulted in 2,200 pounds of ammonium nitrate, more than 300 rounds of assault rifle ammunition, 10 homemade bombs, seven hand grenades, six mortar rounds and various bomb-making materials.
Also today in Afghanistan, officials from NATO's International Security Assistance Force confirmed the identities of insurgents captured and killed in recent ISAF operations.
Usman, a Haqqani network leader, was killed Dec. 18 in Khost province. He was responsible for planning and carrying out attacks on security forces in the province. Several other suspected insurgents were detained during the operation.
ISAF officials also confirmed the identity of a Taliban weapons trafficker who was detained in Kahandar's Zjaray district. He was responsible for moving weapons between Iran and Kandahar through Nimroz province. Two other suspects were detained during the operation.
In operations yesterday:
-- Afghan and coalition forces detained a Haqqani network leader and several suspected insurgents in Khost province. The Haqqani leader is connected to affiliate groups in Pakistan and provides oversight to their Afghanistan operations. The men were detained without incident.
-- In Kandahar province, Afghan and coalition forces detained several suspected insurgents during a search for a Taliban bomb maker. Tips from local residents in the province's Zharay district led security forces to the bomb maker's alleged location, where the suspects were detained. Forces also found 20 pounds of heroin at the scene.
-- Afghan and coalition forces detained a Taliban assassin in Helmand's Marjah district. He is a suspected conspirator of assassination attempts on Afghan officials in Kandahar province. He surrendered to the security force after being found with more than 400 pounds of ammonium nitrate.
-- In Logar province, security forces detained one suspected insurgent with alleged ties to a stockpile of Taliban-made bombs. The suspect surrendered to coalition forces without incident.

WEDNESDAY - March 18, 2009
RALEIGH - United States Attorney George E.B. Holding announced that in federal court here today United States District Judge Terrence W. Boyle, sentenced JESSE CLEO BAZEMORE, 26, of Hope Mills, North Carolina, to 108 months' imprisonment followed by three years of supervised release.
A Federal Grand Jury returned a one-count Criminal Indictment on August 6, 2008. At his arraignment on December 15, 2008, BAZEMORE pled guilty to unlawful possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. On December 11, 2007, deputies with the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office responded to a shooting. Investigation of the incident determined that BAZEMORE had shot another individual in the face and fled. BAZEMORE was located and found in possession of an Israel Military Industries .50 caliber semi-automatic handgun that had been used in the shooting. It was also learned that after shooting the victim, BAZMORE pistol-whipped the victim.
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods which encourages federal, state, and local agencies to cooperate in a unified "team effort" against gun crime, targeting repeat offenders who continually plague their communities.
Mr. Holding commented: "We must deal with the violence occurring in our streets and the Project Safe Neighborhoods Program has been put in place for that purpose. As evidenced by this prosecution, the program will deal with those that continue to commit violent acts upon others, as they will see lengthier sentences at the federal level."
Investigation of the case was conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office. Assistant United States Attorney Jane Jackson served as prosecutor for the government.
News releases are available on the U. S. Attorney's web page at www.usdoj.gov/usao/nce within 48 hours of release.

Pregnant Bellies: Renewed Law in Pennsylvania Says Hands Off!
Pregnant? Tired of people touching the protruding bundle of joy? Move to Pennsylvania! The state has renewed an expanded law that allows pregnant women to press charges against strangers for excessively harassing them to touch their belly. Certainly, any pregnant women or those who have been understand the fascination of their extended bellies to strangers. People want to know is it a boy, girl, how far along mom is in her pregnancy. Pregnancies are a sure-fire way to break the ice amid a group of strangers and now it seems strangers in Pennsylvania will be less likely to touch before asking.
Pregnant Bellies- Law Needed?
All it takes is a trip down to the wondering world of Facebook to receive a take on pregnancy belly touching. For many moms-to-be, especially first time moms – have a hard time taking an assertive stance against random people immediately reaching to touch their belly. It truly is sad common sense fails to prevail in the face of choice. It is incredibly rude to immediately touch a stranger – an even more crude when that person happens to be a pregnant gal. While this writer is not a fan behind expanding law creation, sometimes states have to expand laws to encompass a group of people.
The law was renewed after a Cumberland County man was harassing a pregnant woman to touch her belly and did so without permission. The lawmakers want to make clear the Pennsylvania law is intended to provide pregnant women protection from unwanted touching. The harassment laws in the state has always included pregnant women and many should be aware of it. Hands off the pregnant bellies without asking first. Now, besides it being rude, it just may get a citizen arrested.
Story of Unwanted Touching
Chatting to H.L. Miles (name concealed per request) via Facebook revealed upsetting information for pregnant women. A story millions of women can understand.
I was pregnant with twins, it was a hard pregnancy. My husband and I were told there may be complications, so I basically was bed-ridden unless it was time to go to the doctor's. Everything hurt! It was tough for the both of us. My husband and I walked into the hospital and I was leaning against the reception desk when an older woman stopped before me and nearly shouted 'look at you!' and just plopped her hand on my very sensitive belly. My husband lost it on her and security yelled at everyone to stop but the point? No one has the right to touch a pregnant woman, ever without permission! You never know what type of pregnancy the family be dealing with or how sensitive it all may be. We shouldn't be forced to wear t-shirts to shout don't touch. These principles were taught to my toddler, so have some damn respect!
Some mothers shared their experiences as well advising they have touched strangers right back on their bellies and that immediately stopped the touching. Other mothers have snapped at strangers to back-off. Pregnant women should not have to endure the curious minds of others or be made to feel guilty to be assertive. The belly, especially engorged with a child is a beautiful thing. It also commands respect and logical conclusions; ask before touching, is that not what the masses teach their children, as Miles mentioned?
This is a heated topic for many. Some take on the approach of "so what?" while others (mostly moms) shout back "respect! ask first!" The pregnant belly touching is not something uncommon. It requires the respect of strangers and even family members to ask prior to touching. Sadly, common sense is a law that cannot be passed, but an approach many need to embrace. Pennsylvania has advised its citizens the law has been in the books and will be enforced. What is your take on touching pregnant bellies?

I never thought this was a big deal until I was pregnant. It really is a very strange feeling when someone just reaches out and touches you, even a friend or family member. Once a girl that I work with reached out and rubbed my belly. I reached back and touched her boob! She laughed because she immediately realized why I did that. I said to her "no hard feelings, but yeah, that's how awkward it is" and we had a good laugh about it. I haven't seen it as a huge problem but I do work with the public and now that I am seven months along and popping out EVERYONE, coworkers, patients, etc. feels the need to throw in their two cents! I really don't mind chatting about it, but I do draw the line at touching without warning.
I'm surprised this is even an issue. I've never felt the need to touch any pregnant woman.

Davis was hired as the interim APS superintendent in July 2011 as the system searched to replace departing superintendent, Beverly Hall. The APS Board has not made a final decision, but it appears to be in favor of keeping Davis on board.

After Major Georges Picquart's exile to Tunisia others took up the cause of the Alfred Dreyfus.
This letter, to which Picquart replied by a brief protest, opened his eyes; he understood the plot that was being hatched against him, the dangers which threatened him for having been too discerning. He asked for leave, went to Paris, and disclosed his affair to his old friend and comrade Leblois, a lawyer. Without revealing to Leblois any secret document, even the "petit bleu," he told him that he had discovered Esterhazy's crime and the innocence of Dreyfus; he authorized him, in case of necessity, to inform the government, but absolutely forbade him to apprise either the brother or the lawyer of Dreyfus. Leblois did not long remain the only recipient of the secret. A few days later chance brought him in contact with one of the few statesmen who had shown any sympathy with the researches of Matthew Dreyfus - the Alsatian Scheurer-Kestner, former member of the Chamber of Deputies for Alsace and coworker with Gambetta, and now vice-president of the Senate and one of the most justly esteemed men of the Republican party. Since 1895 Scheurer-Kestner, induced by the deputy Ranc and by Matthew Dreyfus, had made some inquiries. In 1897 the friends of Dreyfus returned to the charge. Scheurer-Kestner was surprised to find that all the so-called moral proofs, the tales that were brought forward to explain the crime of Dreyfus, did not bear investigation. The expert Teyssonnières, sent to him by his friend and colleague Trarieux, former minister of justice, did not succeed in convincing him that the bordereau was in the writing of Dreyfus. In great distress, he went to tell his old comrade Billot of his suspicions; the general reassured him: a secret document discovered since the condemnation, at the moment of Castelin's interpellation, had removed all doubts; Billot related the substance of it to him without letting him see it. This "crushing blow," which he kept in reserve for the partisans of Dreyfus, was Major Henry's forgery.
Toward the middle of October a meeting was held at the War Office, in anticipation of Scheurer-Kestner's impending campaign. Gonse, Henry, Lauth, Du Paty de Clam, were all present; the last, although having nothing to do with the Intelligence Office, had been summoned to it as the principal worker in the condemnation of Dreyfus, and as interested therefore more than any one in maintaining it. Gonse set forth the plot "of the Jews" to substitute for Dreyfus Esterhazy, an officer of doubtful character, but whom a minute inquiry had cleared of all suspicion of treachery: who was, however, a nervous man, and who, under the blow of a sudden denunciation, might lose his head and take flight or even kill himself; and that would mean catastrophe, war, and disaster. Esterhazy must then be warned, to prevent him from going quite mad. But how was it to be done? It was decided to send him an anonymous letter in order that he might take courage. Billot objected to this proceeding; it seems, however, that somebody disregarded the objection, for Esterhazy received (or pretended to have received) a letter signed Espérance, warning him that the Dreyfus family, informed by a certain Colonel Picquart, intended to accuse him of treason. One fact is certain - that he settled in Paris, went to see Schwarzkoppen, and told him that all was lost if he (Schwarzkoppen) did not go and declare to Madame Dreyfus that her husband was guilty; on the indignant refusal of Schwarzkoppen he threatened to blow his brains out.
At the Staff Office Henry and Du Paty, understanding at once the wishes of Boisdeffre and of Gonse, resolved to join forces with Esterhazy. The keeper of the records, Gribelin, went in disguise to take a letter to Esterhazy fixing a rendezvous in the park of Montsouris. There, while Henry (fearing, as he said, recognition by his former comrade) kept watch, Du Paty, who was also disguised, told Esterhazy that he was known to be innocent, and that he would be defended on condition that he conformed rigorously to the instructions that would be given to him. After this interview, Esterhazy went to Schwarzkoppen quite cheered up, and told him that the staff was entering into a campaign for his defense. A week later Schwarzkoppen had himself recalled to Berlin; it was the discreet but significant avowal that "his man was taken." Meanwhile Esterhazy, as agreed upon, was receiving his daily instructions from the Staff Office. Every evening from this time on Gribelin brought to him at the Military Club the program for the next day; Du Paty and Henry, whose connection with the affair Esterhazy soon knew, saw him several times, sometimes at the Montmartre cemetery, sometimes on the Pont d'Alexandre III. Later on, when these meetings were considered too dangerous, they corresponded with him through the medium of his mistress, of his lawyer, or of his cousin Christian.
Following instructions, Esterhazy wrote to Billot, ending his letter with the threat that if he were not defended he would apply to the German emperor. He wrote in the same strain to the president of the republic, claiming that a lady, afterward mysteriously referred to as the "veiled lady", had given him a photograph of a very important document which Picquart had acquired from an embassy and which seriously compromised persons of high diplomatic rank. This braggadocio was taken so seriously that General Leclerc received an order at Tunis to question Picquart on having given to an outsider - the "veiled lady" - the "document of deliverance." Receiving no answer, Esterhazy, in his third letter (5 November), virtually held the knife at the president's throat: the stolen document proved the rascality of Dreyfus; if he should publish it, it would be war or humiliation for France. This time they made up their minds to listen to him. General Saussier was charged with interrogating Esterhazy in regard to the "document of deliverance"; he obtained no details from him, but made him promise to send back the document to the minister. On 15 November (the day when Matthew Dreyfus wrote his denunciation) it was "restored" to Saussier in a triple envelope, sealed with Esterhazy's arms: the "document of deliverance," as Esterhazy called it, was a photograph of the document "canaille de D . . ." There is nothing to prove that Esterhazy had ever had it in his hands. Billot acknowledged the receipt by the hand of his "chef de cabinet," General Torcy. By these barefaced stratagems Esterhazy and his defenders on the staff made certain of the complicity of the minister and of the president of the republic, while they compromised Picquart more deeply.
During this time Scheurer-Kestner was being deceived by his "old friend" Billot. On 30 October he had a long conference with Billot, at which he accused Esterhazy. Billot declared that in spite of persistent investigations nobody had been able to find any proofs against Esterhazy, but that there were positive proofs against Dreyfus. Scheurer-Kestner implored him to distrust suspicious documents, and finally gave him a fortnight in which to make an honest and thorough investigation, promising that he himself would not speak during that time.
For four days they hesitated as to the course to pursue, Scheurer-Kestner still persisting in keeping the fortnight's silence promised to Billot on 31 October. In the interim, by means of the press the public mind had been influenced by indications as to the real traitor and by counter-declarations by Esterhazy in "La Libre Parole" concerning the conspiracy of the Jews and of "X. Y." (Picquart).
On the night of 15 November, in a letter to the minister of war which was published at once, Matthew Dreyfus denounced "Count" Walsin Esterhazy as the writer of the bordereau and as the author of the treason for which his brother had been condemned.
Convinced of the guilt of Dreyfus through the assurances of the staff, and before long by Henry's forged documents, Pellieux refused at the outset to examine the bordereau, on the subject of which there was "chose jugée." Even after the formal order to prosecute, an interpellation of Scheurer-Kestner to the Senate (7 December) was necessary to induce General Billot to promise that all the documents, including the famous bordereau, should be produced for examination. On this occasion also, as he had done some days before in the Chamber of Deputies (4 December), the minister did not fail to proclaim on his soul and conscience the guilt of Dreyfus, thus bringing to bear the whole weight of his high office on the verdict of the future judges of Esterhazy. Premier Méline, on his part, gained applause for declaring "that there was no Dreyfus affair," and the Chamber in its "ordre du jour" stigmatized "the ringleaders of the odious campaign which troubled the public conscience."

press releaseBy Martin Jada Gabriel
Juba — The government of the Republic of South Sudan has pledged to rescue the famine situation caused by poor harvest in greater Kapoeta following the appeal raised by authorities from Eastern Equatoria state.
This was announced the Humanitarian Affairs minister, Joseph Lual Acuil who said the ministry and some of UN agencies are prepared and working to put an end to the alarming famine which is expected to worsen by May of this year.
So far a report from the commissioners of greater Kapoeta indicates that up to this moment over ten people, mostly women and children, are reported to have died of hunger while many more suffering from malnutrition. The commissioners said there are no sufficient food items in the markets of four counties of greater Kapoeta.
Hon. Acuil disclosed that UNICEF is now on the ground tackling the growing problem of malnutrition facing young children. He further appealed to the authorities in the ministry of Roads and Bridges to quickly fix the bridge connecting Kapoeta East to facilitate transportation of aid.

Franklin Pierce University's men's and women's rugby teams participated in the Beast of the East Tournament on April 17 and 18 in Portsmouth, Rhode Island.
Both teams did not get the results they were looking for, after the men's rugby team finished with a 0-2 record and the women's finished with a 2-2 record.
The women's team made it to the semifinals of the consolation matches, playing in the Division III bracket. However, the men's team was not as fortunate and had an early exit from the tournament.
The women's team got a win against Fordham University and received a victory from Trinity College via forfeit, but suffered losses to Babson College and Mount Holyoake College. Although the women's team did not win the tournament, the players still felt as though their hard effort paid off.
Allison McNeany, president of the women's rugby team, participated in her first ever Beast of the East tournament and thought the tournament went well. "We played more experienced teams because we are a division four team and we did better than I expected," said McNeany.
On the other side, the men lost to Castleton State and Colby College in the Division II bracket. Corey Lawson, head coach of the men's and women's rugby team, has impressed by how the men played. "The men played two teams that were higher division and only lost by one score," said Lawson. He also mentioned that it was some of the best rugby both teams have played since he took over as head coach.
The Beast of the East tournament is the largest collegiate rugby tournament in the world. In total, 61 teams from the northeast participated. Both Franklin Pierce teams expect to participate in next year's tournament.
The Beast of the East tournament was the biggest outing that the Franklin Pierce University rugby teams will have until the fall. Both teams will continue their remaining Spring schedules in preparation for the Fall season.

If a ticket gives you ANY 6 days over the year, a lot of guests will go Christmas week and other holidays. That will create MORE crowding, not less. The way to cut crowding is to price days differently. And yes, it will be complicated, but only for Disney.
Unlimited is a big part of the problem. It means you can go every night for fireworks or WoC, it means you can go during holidays and crowded summer Saturdays. It means MORE crowding. If Premium passholders can get in for $2, it hurts everyone. If they have to pay a percentage of a variable price, they will either choose to pay more (Disney makes more) or they will go on an off-day (crowds will be less).
Crowding will tend to level throughout the year, Disney and guests both benefit.

Course overview
Following successful completion of an undergraduate degree in psychology or Deakin's Graduate Diploma of Psychological Studies, students may complete an approved 'fourth year' of study in psychology (either the Graduate Diploma of Psychology or honours in psychology) in order to seek provisional registration with the Psychology Board of Australia and associate membership of the Australian Psychological Society (APS).
The Graduate Diploma of Psychology offers you the opportunity to complete a combination of core units comprising both coursework and research.
- You will also undertake a research project which develops your ability to critically evaluate theory and empirical studies; advanced skills in research design, implementation, analysis and reporting; as well as your understanding of professional responsibilities, standards of performance and ethical issues.
Professional recognition
This course is accredited by the Australian Psychology Accreditation Council (APAC), recognised for registration purposes by the Psychology Board of Australia and meet the requirements for associate membership of the Australian Psychological Society (APS).
In addition, it provides a basis for students wishing to apply to undertake higher degree studies in a more specialised field of applied psychology.
Fees and charges
Fee paying place - International (IFP)
A fee paying place is one for which the University does not receive any government funding. As such, students enrolled in these places are required to contribute the full cost of their course.
Fees for international students apply to persons living in Australia with Temporary Resident status, provided that there is no limitation on study and persons living abroad who are not Australian citizens and do not have Permanent Resident status in Australia.
Equivalent Full Time Student Load (EFTSL)
EFTSL is the standard annual full time load. Eight credit points is the standard full time load for one year of study.
* The 'indicative annual course fee' cited has been provided as a guide only. It has been calculated on the basis of a typical enrolment of a student undertaking the course in 2015, and reflects the cost involved in undertaking a full-time quota of units within the specified discipline.
The actual fees charged by Deakin University will depend upon the discipline from which each individual unit is chosen, and may vary from the indicative course fee cited, particularly if units are chosen from a number of disciplines. The cost of each unit offered in 2015 can be viewed from the Unit Search.
Please note that the fees per unit/credit point may increase annually due to rises in the cost of course delivery and service.
Deakin assumes no responsibility for persons relying on 'indicative course fees' to calculate the total future cost of their course.
Course rules
The course comprises six units, totalling 8 credit points. The Research Project units runs over two trimesters (units HPY720 and HPY721) and are worth 2 credit points each. There are four coursework units, each worth 1 credit point: HPS715, HPS742, HPY710 and HPY712.
Attendance and presentation at the annual School Honours Conference and attendance at the School Research Colloquia are hurdle requirements.

Part time students wising to deviate from the recommended structure should consult the course director.
Registration as a Psychologist
The current requirements for registration as a provisional psychologist include the completion of four years of academic study of psychology that is recognised by the Psychology Board of Australia. The academic program usually consists of an approved undergraduate psychology sequence followed by an approved fourth-year of study, such as Deakin's Graduate Diploma of Psychology or honours in psychology.
Following successful completion of an approved fourth-year of psychology study, you may apply for provisional registration with the Psychology Board of Australia and associate membership of the Australian Psychological Society (APS). Deakin's Bachelor of Psychology can lead directly to provisional registration provided the honours year is completed within this four-year course.
In order to gain full registration, provisional psychologists must then complete either two years of supervised practice, or a minimum two years of further study, which may include: Master of Psychology, Doctor of Psychology or a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) (with supervised practice completed outside the degree).
Note: This course is currently accredited as at the date of publishing.
Entry requirements - general
Deakin University offers admission to postgraduate courses through a number of Admission categories.

You will need to provide a certified copy of your previous course details so your credit can be determined. If you are eligible, your offer letter will then contain information about your credit for prior learning.
Your credit for prior learning is formally approved prior to your enrolment at Deakin during the Enrolment and Orientation Program. You must bring original documents relating to your previous study so that this approval can occur.
You can also refer to the Credit for Prior Learning System which outlines the credit that may be granted towards a Deakin University degree.
Credit for prior learning - specific
Students who have completed components of another APAC-accredited fourth year program may apply for credit for prior learning for up to four credit points. Credit for prior learning can only be granted for units that are determined by the unit chair and course chair to be equivalent to a unit in the Graduate Diploma of Psychology in content and assessment requirements. Credit for prior learning cannot be granted for studies completed as part of courses that are not APAC-accredited.
