By EMILY W. PETTUS
Associated Press
JACKSON (AP) — Both candidates for Mississippi governor say they're voting for a "personhood" ballot initiative that declares life begins when a human egg is fertilized.
Republican Phil Bryant is co-chairman of the "Yes on 26" campaign that's pushing for the proposed amendment to the state constitution. Democrat Johnny DuPree says he's voting for Initiative 26 because it matches his personal beliefs.
On the Nov. 8 ballot, voters will be asked to answer yes or no to the question: "Should the term 'person' be defined to include every human being from the moment of fertilization, cloning or the equivalent thereof?"
Opponents say defining life as beginning at fertilization could block some common forms of birth control and deter Mississippi physicians from performing in vitro fertilization because they'd fear criminal charges if an embryo doesn't survive.
Supporters see the initiative as a way to provoke a court fight to try to overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision that established a legal right to abortion.
"To say that there is that right within the constitution for an abortion is something that many of us do not believe that exists, that it is connected somehow to a privacy right," said Bryant, the current lieutenant governor.
At a "Yes on 26" news conference in September, Bryant was asked whether women should get to choose whether to keep or terminate pregnancies.
"They can become pregnant as often as they want to, if that's the question," Bryant said. "Now, if your question is do they have the right to an abortion? What we're saying is that child has certainly his rights and her rights, too. So, if we are going to define them as a human being, certainly it is impossible for us — for me or others in this government — to deny that human being as he exists or she exists, those basic human rights. And I do not have the right as one human being to take the life of another."
DuPree told The Associated Press in a separate interview this month that he believes "fertilization is the beginning of life."
"The reason I have to say that is because my wife and I were pregnant when we married," said DuPree, who's been married nearly 39 years. "We were teenagers. We married. Didn't abort. We married. My daughter who we didn't abort has a 4-year-old son. He is an in vitro baby. So, can you see why? Personhood ... starts at fertilization. If we didn't feel that way, we wouldn't have had our baby. And if we felt that way, I wouldn't have my grandbaby."
DuPree said he has some concerns about how the personhood initiative — if approved — will affect birth control and in vitro fertilization, as well as how it will affect victims of rape and incest.
"But that's not what this is about. That's not the initiative. That's down the road," DuPree said.
One abortion clinic operates in Mississippi. The state requires in-person counseling and a 24-hour wait before any woman can terminate a pregnancy. It also has a law requiring parental or judicial consent for any minor to get an abortion.
The Mississippi State Medical Association says it is not supporting Initiative 26 — a step short of actively opposing it. The Mississippi section of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists opposes the initiative, as does the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, which says it would "unduly restrict an infertile patient's right to make decisions about embryos created as part of the in vitro fertilization process."

Developer of Poehler building looking to file plans for new 34-unit affordable apartment project in East Lawrence
Tonight will be another big night for the Warehouse Arts District, which is what the area around the old Poehler Building at Eighth and Pennsylvania streets is being called.
As we reported last week, city commissioners tonight will consider investing several hundred thousand dollars into infrastructure repairs in the area to accommodate the latest phase of the project.
But the project will be well worth watching beyond tonight. The district's lead developer, Tony Krsnich, confirmed to me that he soon will file plans for a brand new 34-unit apartment building for the area.
Krsnich said he has completed a deal to buy the vacant property directly south of the Poehler Building from Lawrence landowner Harold Shepherd. (If you are familiar with the area, the property is the one with the big Cottonwood tree on it, near the new city-built parking lot for the area.
The project isn't an entirely done deal, though. Krsnich said he'll file plans next month with the Kansas Housing Resources Corporation, which is the group that hands out federal tax credits for affordable housing projects.
The housing credit program is a competitive one, and the Lawrence project will be competing against others across the state. Krsnich, though, had luck in winning credits from the program when he converted the old Poehler building into a 49-unit affordable apartment project.
It looks like Krsnich also is trying to sweeten the pot a bit with this application. He said the plans call for Lawrence-based Tenants to Homeowners to be a partner on this project. I haven't yet had a chance to talk to the leaders of Tenants to Homeowners to find out exactly what its role will be, but the organization has a lot of credibility in the affordable housing sector in the state.
Krsnich also can point to the fact that demand for rent-controlled apartments in the Poehler building has been very strong. The project had all its leases filled within about 12 hours of taking applications.
"I think I'll have this project filled up in about 11 hours," said Krsnich, who said he at one point had a waiting list of about 100 for the Poehler project.
If the new project does get tax credits — and I'm not sure it will move forward if it doesn't — the apartments will be required to be rent-controlled for at least 30 years. I'm not sure exactly which tax credit program the project will apply for, but most of them work in such a way that rents must be deemed affordable for households earning 60 percent or less of the local median income.
If you are not familiar with how the tax credit program works, projects like this one are awarded tax credits that they then can sell to investors who want to reduce their tax liabilities. The state's Web site estimates that developers currently are receiving about 77 cents on the dollar for each $1 worth of tax credits.
Developers use the money from the sale of the tax credits to invest in their projects, which reduces the amount of debt they have to take out and makes it feasible to rent apartments at below market-rate rents.
I believe the state has about $60 million in tax credits available to award this year. It looks like winners will be announced in May.

DUBAI: The United Arab Emirates' railway developer Etihad Rail has signed a joint venture deal with a unit of Germany's Deutsche Bahn to operate and maintain the Gulf country's planned $11 billion rail network, it said on Tuesday.
Gulf Arab oil exporters are spending hundreds of billions of dollars on projects ranging from power to transport as they look to diversify their heavily hydrocarbon-reliant economies and boost regional trade.
Etihad Rail DB will manage operations for the first stage of the railway, transporting granulated sulphur on a 264-km (164-mile) route from Shah and Habshan to the port of Ruwais. It will also act as consultant for future stages of the project.
"The company will pave the way for the railway operations in the UAE and set a benchmark in the region," Mattar al-Tayer, Chairman of Etihad Rail DB, said in a statement.
Deutsche Bahn is Europe's largest railway firm, operating passenger and freight services on a 33,500-km rail network.
Upon completion, the UAE's national railway network will span about 1,200 km as part of the planned Gulf railway network.
In February, state-backed Etihad Rail said it had bank loans of $1.28 billion to build the first phase of the project.

Christmas Accessories: Rudolph Antlers and Nose - Christmas Accessories: Rudolph Antlers and Nose...
Price $7.95
Antlers aren't actually horns, but instead perennial appendages of most deer species. In the spring, deer actually shed their antlers every year by rubbing and dragging them across the ground until they fall off and then the re-growth process occurs over the summer. The male deer need the antlers to impress their harem of females during the mating season and also to protect themselves from competitors.
Dressing up in antlers costumes is fun for the whole family herd. Little children will like dressing up as the magical animals that pull Santa's sleigh in darling little reindeer costumes. Daddy can be the big buck in town in a brown sweat suit and pair of antlers atop his head while mom will enjoy showing off her many attractive appendages in a sexy, reindeer outfit that shows off a bit of arm and leg! There are also antlers costumes for the family pet with miniature antlers for your dog or cat! Not just for Christmas, antlers costumes are great additions to school plays and theater productions.

Diagnosing a non-sparking can be frustrating. With some simple understandable of how the module and related parts work, diagnosis can be made easier.
The module receives 120VAC from the ignition switches are wired in parallel, meaning that each switch can activate the module. Power (L1) comes into the first switch then jumps tot eh second, onto the third, and so on. L1 passes through the switch then outward to the module. The outgoing L1 is weird the same way as the incoming, with the exception that it goes to the spark module. With this understanding, ignition switch is turned on individually. Should one switch appear to be nonfunctional, check the switch. Should a couple of switched appear not to be working, check for loose wires between the switches. This only applies to non- reignition type systems.
The module, once it receives the L1 voltage from the switches, energizes the coils to produce approximately 12000-14000 VDC to the burners. The coil sends the voltage out via the igniter wires to the igniter where the spark jumps to the burner base. Voltage then passes through the burner to the grounding strap, through the chassis to the opposite grounding strap, to the burner base. The voltage jumps from the burner base to the igniter (that's right from the base to the igniter), passing back through the igniter wire, to the coil, thus completing the coil operation circuit. The coils in the module are balanced based on impedance or resistance. The coils are wired so that the left front and right rear burners are on one coil; the left rear and right front are on the other. Knowing about the balance and the path of the electrical flow, finding a sparking problem can be made less complicated. This only applies to the sealed burner, non-reignition system.
Now for the service diagnostics. The customer complains that the left burner is not igniting, but the other burners are sparking. The ignition switches can be ruled out since the module is receiving the L1 voltage and a spark is produced. *Since the left front burner is linked to the right rear burner, check the spark on that burner. If the spark at the right rear is a crisp blue spark, that indicates that the 12000-14000 VDC is returning to the burner. Electricity will take the path of least resistance and would rather go to the chassis than jump the gap at the burner. With this in mind, the next thing to check is for a possible grounded igniter wire or broken igniter insulator for the left front burner. let's now take a look at the opposite affect. The right rear burner is a light blue almost white spark. This would indicate not all the D.C. voltage is returning to the burner. Possible causes could be:
Hopefully this will help you diagnose erratic or intermittent sparking on your future service calls of this nature.

Martingales in the limit and amarts
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: The notion of amart is compared to that of a martingale in the limit and game fairer with time. Every real-valued amart is a martingale in the limit. More generally, a Banach space E is finite-dimensional if and only if every E-valued amart is a martingale in the limit (or a game fairer with time). Several crucial properties possessed by amarts fail both for martingales in the limit and games fairer with time: the maximal inequality, the optional stopping theorem, the optional sampling theorem, the Riesz decomposition; therefore a general theory analogous to the amart theory cannot be based on the notion of a martingale in the limit. It is also observed that either the optional sampling theorem or a weak form of the Riesz decomposition must fail for any class of sequences of random variables strictly larger than the class of amarts.

In a uniquely intimate portrait of Sylvia Plath, The Observer's former poetry editor recalls being her confidant and mentor and tells of the strange experience of seeing himself portrayed in the new film of her life. By Al Alvarez.
Why are we still so obsessed with the life and death of Sylvia Plath, asks Katharine Viner.
The brief was tough: write a romantic Hollywood drama about mental instability and one of the most controversial literary marriages ever. But when John Brownlow's first draft got the green light, his problems were only beginning. Here he tells a true story of crashing egos, crazy deadlines and booze-fuelled, red-eyed nights working out how poets talk.
The poet Sylvia Plath, who gassed herself as her children slept in the next room, was not the downtrodden victim of feminist legend, a new study will argue.
Who could possibly mimic Sylvia Plath and carry it off? Kate Moses tries to recreate the last two years of the poet's life in Wintering
It must have been hell being Sylvia Plath, as Kate Moses's ambitious novel, Wintering, makes abundantly clear
For Sylvia Plath, baking was a form of therapy, a way of creating order in a chaotic world. As Kate Moses struggled to finish her first novel - a fictionalised account of the last months of Plath's life - she found herself increasingly often in the kitchen, getting out the mixing bowl...
The daughter of the poets Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes has vented her wrath at the BBC by writing a poem in which she accuses the corporation of voyeuristically raking over the ashes of her mother's death. By Jamie Wilson.
The moment when Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes first kissed in Cambridge ("it seemed your long, perfect, American legs/simply went on up") is to be caught in a British film.
The poet Ted Hughes strongly believed a reconciliation was approaching with his wife and fellow-poet Sylvia Plath only weeks before she killed herself, according to newly disclosed letters in the British Library.
A collection of previously unpublished letters from the late poet laureate Ted Hughes to his biographer have reopened a heated debate over the cause of Sylvia Plath's suicide nearly 30 years ago.
Emma Tennant's novel about Hughes and Plath, The Ballad of Sylvia and Ted, is tasteless, but also compelling
They still hear wolves at night in Chalcot Square, though in the 37 years since Sylvia Plath took her life there has been plenty heard from jackals too.
The publication of The Journals of Sylvia Plath (Faber, £30) was, as Jacqueline Rose noted in the Observer, "heralded as an event of some literary significance". Ms Rose, an authority on Plath, was given a good deal of space to expound on that significance, but didn't quite manage it. Her conclusion - "No potential writer trying to haul themselves from bed, drudgery or distraction into writing should miss them" - made it sound more like a creative writing textbook than a new account of a life that has proved captivating and hugely controversial since Plath's suicide in 1963.
What will Sylvia Plath's place be in the strange, at times downright eccentric, library of great literary diaries?
First of all, there are the facts. Sylvia Plath, the American poet, committed suicide in 1963 at the age of 30, gassing herself in her London flat after leaving out bread and milk for her two children, a daughter of nearly three and a son of 13 months, who were sleeping in an upstairs bedroom.
Sylvia Plath predicted on the day after she met Ted Hughes that their relationship would lead to her death, according to extracts from her diaries, which appear exclusively in the Guardian today and next week.
Ted Hughes' dabbling in the occult enabled his wife to write some of her greatest works. But, says Al Alvarez, ex-poetry editor of the Observer and a friend of the doomed couple, inspiration came at a terrible cost
'I realised Sylvia knew about Assia's pregnancy - it might have offered a further explanation of her suicide'In 1963, the poet Sylvia Plath, distraught at the break-up of her marriage to Ted Hughes, committed suicide. Six years later, Hughes faced more tragedy when his mistress Assia Wevill - who had lured him away from Plath - killed herself and their four-year-old daughter Shura. Elizabeth Sigmund, a close friend of Sylvia Plath, prompted by the Guardian's account of Wevill's death (Saturday Review, 10/4/99) recalls the aftermath of Plath's suicide and the terrible events surrounding the death of Assia and Shura.
Thirty years after the American poet Sylvia Plath killed herself in London, the literary row over why she died is still going on. While some feminists claim that Plath was the victim of an insensitive husband, she is also accused of trying to manipulate the world around her once too often. But the doctor who cared for her in the last weeks of her life claims that the debate overlooks the real villian, and the subject of most of her poems and diary - the depression that dogged her life.

OK, we've all known about this place being built. Now the builders are seeking tax breaks from the government. Is it appropriate given the notorious reputation of creationism and how it misinforms the public? Or does the government look at it as just a theme park and treat it like any business?

Well, I dunno ... since a "secular" theme park would just be about any museum in the country (sorta), if they get tax breaks, so should the creationist park, I guess.
Of course, Jesus should find them some fish to help them pay their taxes. :)

C'mon Johnny and Lope--tell the owners of the theme park that you don't want your tax dollars spent this way.

A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side. Aristotle

And I would be for them having to pay the same taxes as any other theme parks/businesses.
If other theme parks/businesses are given tax breaks (as many private companies are given in order to entice them to come), then they should be consistent with this theme park. If other theme parks or businesses do not get tax breaks, then neither should this theme park.

"Feminism has fought no wars. It has killed no opponents. It has set up no concentration camps, starved no enemies, practiced no cruelties. Its battles have been for education, for the vote, for better working conditions…for safety on the streets…for child care, for social welfare…for rape crisis centers, women's refuges, reforms in the law.
If someone says, "Oh, I'm not a feminist," I ask, "Why, what's your problem?"

They got a $43 million dollar tax break from the state of Kentucky.
As I don't live in Kentucky, it is really none of my business.
But if it riles up the atheists, it can't be all bad.
There is a hole in my heart dug deep by advertising and envy and a desire to see a thing that is new and different and beautiful. A place within me that is empty, and that I want to fill up. The hole makes me think electronics can help. And of course, they can.
They make the world easier and more enjoyable. They boost productivity and provide entertainment and information and sometimes even status. At least for a while. At least until they are obsolete. At least until they are garbage.

I am not a big fan of tax breaks for any for profit industry. So this grates my cheese on that level, at least.
Dark Energy. It can be found in the observable Universe. Found in ratios of 75% more than any other substance. Dark Energy. It can be found in religious extremists, in cheerleaders. To come to the conclusion that Dark signifies mean and malevolent would define 75% of the Universe as an evil force. Alternatively, to think that some cheerleaders don't have razors in their snatch is to be foolishly unarmed.

these are local tax breaks?
so the real issue is does the 14th admendment extend the establishment clause to the states and local government and if it does is a tax break an establishment of religion? remembering that it has already been ruled that tax exemptions are not such an establishment

The financial services model ONLY works when the financial guy (EFS) is teamed with agencies that will actually produce the numbers of referrals you need to make production goals. Only the big agencies make it worth while--but there are not enough to go around. Be sure the group that will be assigned to you have a credible financial production history!
Problem is, the large producing agencies are already paired with with existing (fat cat) EFSs. The new guys will only get the poor performing, struggling agencies that nobody wants to work with. The guy trying to hire you gets a bonus for hiring more and more. Allstate motivates local managers to hire more than they can actually support with adequate referrals.
Advice to Management
Be fair and honest. Only hire a new EFS when they can be paired with a group of agencies with a history of adequate financial production that can make minimum goals. Spread the wealth (producing agencies) fairly among area EFSs.

Personality of the Chinese provinces Henan: Henan is the cradle of the Chinese nation, six old has three in Henan. But now the worst reputation, Beijing Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, the city's companies are reluctant to hire people in Henan, the "fire alarm anti Henan", which even played in Shenzhen, "severely crack down on gang membership in Henan" in banner. Probably more people in the narrow (fast 100 million of the) competition, a lot of people seem to naturally very sly. Henan company credit bad, can cheat the cheat, will pit the pit, and they do business is risky. Zhengzhou, Xinxiang, Anyang company focused on a lot of liars, the commissioning process, to join the way of fraud, not whether the local government. Henan general position in the big cities is not high, but the reputation is the most "loud", received a lot of waste (often pilfering), Gushi County is "waste of the town." Miss has a lot to do, more loitering in the cities. The crime rate in Beijing after a northeastern (northeastern fighting, Henan theft, fraud, people hate more strokes). No one is probably the DPRK, there is no right to speak, always marginalized, and even renamed a lot of people are Hebei, Henan people, Shandong Province. In fact, Henan people are diligent, hardworking, simple lifestyle has always known, especially in rural areas is very simple, nostalgic heavy, but rigid, inert, closed and conservative, is China's largest provincial labor force. Henan is very particular about manners at home, regardless of each other daily, shuttle, circulation, other celebration, birth, adulthood, marriage, birthday, funeral, etc., are all very much courtesy and instrumentation. However Henan dirty clothes, not like a bath is out of the name. In recent years a lot of abuses out of the Henan people not united, spoil the reputation of a province. Despite every effort to change the image, but the bad name has been entrenched. Many people from Henan and excessive verbal abuse, already has forgotten her: the Hakka, and even the ancestors of the people of Shanghai are from Henan Province. 2. Hubei: ?Adjacent to Henan, "the sky nine birds, underground Hubei guys", no smaller degree of cunning in Henan, the fakes have Hanzhengjie Wei Town Central. But fame is not so bad Hubei, Hubei is known as "the province of a thousand lakes", Water and more naturally spiritual, it is also a lot of beauty. Hubei, very intelligent, highly competitive college entrance examination, scores were many, very good at reading people in Hubei, the famous country famed Huanggang schools, and even Beijing Shanghai are humbled by the focus of secondary schools, Hubei, many of which are in university Jiao-Jiao persons. Days the door is the famous hometown of overseas Chinese mainland, Xiantao, Qianjiang, very rich, comparable to coastal areas. However, Anhui, Henan, Dabie Mountain area of the red border security, Macheng, British Hill is one of the poorest regions in the country. Enshi Hubei Province, Shiyan, the old river mouth is also poor. Security is the most famous red, "General County" (out of 233 general), it is probably the heroes in those days, as long as the poor, fit, courageous, there must be life after the big blessing. Hubei introverted personality, keeping a low profile, Hubei courage as Hunan, Hubei, had a boy admired a girl, girls liked him, but boy is ashamed to open, last missed benign fate, trickery no more courage to not do the same. Compared to rural areas is, in Hubei province is also the workers. 3. Hunan: Hunan is known as "north south", character Zhang Yang Unyielding, as hot as chili, his voice however. History books have given the most praise on the Hunan: "However, there are material Chu, in Sri Lanka to hold" (Yuelu Academy), "Chu Chin although three to death," "no not a military Xiang", "Hunan people do not down, China is not dumping, "" the world not get alo

You may remember a story we published last week about how Washington Redskins running back Roy Helu Jr. expressed his desire to become a spokesman for Suave shampoo. You know, similar to the way Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy Polamalu plugs Head & Shoulders.

Check out this tweet: We like the long 'do, @royhelujr29! Keep it styling with 1 year of Suave Men product. It's on us. Thx for the call-out to @dcsportsbog! — Suave Beauty (@SuaveBeauty) October 29, 2013 Now, it's not exactly the spokeperson position Helu was vying for, but I'm sure he will happily take the free shampoo as consolation.

Ralph Cunningham - ITR
The UK government may be eager to help financial institutions comply with the Foreign Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) but it has rejected a call to introduce its own version of the US law. At the same time, the UK said the G8, of which it is the president in 2013, would focus on tax evasion.
The International Development Committee (IDC)
of the House of Commons called on the UK to legislate for
automatic exchange of information between tax authorities about
UK citizens and corporations. The committee also urged the UK
to use its influence in international organisations such as the
OECD to encourage other jurisdictions to do the same.
However, the government, responding to an IDC report, Tax in Developing Countries: Increasing
Resources for Development, said there were other ways,
apart from legislation, to tackle tax evasion.
"The UK approach is to work in partnership with other
governments, including those in developing countries, to
increase tax transparency and exchange of information," the
government said. "The government works closely with the G20, EU

In contrast to their first innings collapse, West Indies, after being asked to follow on, put up a valiant fight before being bundled out for 463 in 126.3 overs eight minutes before the scheduled tea break.
At one stage, the West Indies were staring at their biggest ever loss against India (an innings and 112 runs, Mumbai 2002) but Bravo weaved two century partnerships -- with Chanderpaul (108 runs) and Marlon Samuels (132) -- to save his side from the dubious record.
Resuming at his overnight score of 38, Bravo put up a superb batting display to notch up his second Test century in less than a month with both coming in second innings. He hit 16 boundaries and four sixes in his innings from 230 balls.
For India, pacer Umesh Yadav was the most successful bowler with three wickets today to return with innings figure of four for 80, while the spin duo of Pragyan Ojha (2/104) and R Ashwin (2/137) claimed the remaining wickets. Pacer Ishant Sharma (2/95) had claimed two wickets on Wednesday.
Veteran batsman Shivnarine Chanderpaul, playing with a stiff calf muscle, gave Bravo good company with 47 (94 balls, 6x4).
