How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
The army officer and alleged collusion in Yemen
16 Aug 2011 02:55 GMT | Politics, Middle East, Israel
One person has been killed and five others have been wounded in Israeli air strikes on the Gaza Strip, according to Palestinian medical sources.
The first raid, early on Tuesday, targeted Zeitun, east of Gaza City and injured three men involved in firing rockets at Israel, the medical sources told the Reuters news agency. One among them later died.
The warplanes also targeted two Hamas training camps, one east of Gaza City and another west of Khan Younis city.
Two people were reported to have suffered minor injuries, according to the AFP news agency, which carried images of an injured women arriving for treatment at a Gaza City hospital.
Three Palestinian civilians, among them a boy, were injured, sources said, in a separate air strike that targeted a tunnel beneath Gaza's border with Egypt.
In a statement, the Israeli military said the raids were launched in response to the firing of a rocket from the Gaza Strip at the southern town of Beersheva.
Aircraft "targeted four targets in the Gaza Strip. Direct hits were confirmed," the statement said.
An Israeli police spokesman said a rocket had been fired at Beersheva, without causing casualties. Israeli public radio said a second rocket was also fired at the town, but it was not known where it fell.
Since last month there has been an increase in the number of rockets fired at southern Israel from the Gaza Strip followed by Israeli air force reprisal raids after several months of calm following a flare-up in April when an anti-tank missile hit an Israeli school bus, killing a teenager.
Israel responded to that attack with a series of air strikes that killed at least 19 Palestinians in the deadliest violence since Israel's devastating 22-day assault on Gaza in December 2008-January 2009.

Routing Slip
The Routing Slip from the EIP patterns allows you to route a message consecutively through a series of processing steps where the sequence of steps is not known at design time and can vary for each message.
The following route will take any messages sent to the Apache ActiveMQ queue SomeQueue and pass them into the Routing Slip pattern.
Messages will be checked for the existance of the "aRoutingSlipHeader" header. The value of this header should be a comma-delimited list of endpoint URIs you wish the message to be routed to. The Message will be routed in a pipeline fashion (i.e. one after the other).
From Camel 2.5 the Routing Slip will set a property (
The Routing Slip will compute the slip beforehand which means, the slip is only computed once. If you need to compute the slip on-the-fly then use the Dynamic Router pattern instead.

Evidence Brings Hope, Truth - Some Jurisdictions Slow to
Report Findings • Hoyer Delivers Remarks at 2015 Housing Fair • Library Receives Grants for Early Literacy Events • County Council Overrides County Executive Veto • WSSC, PGCPS Launch New Fats, Oils and Grease Curriculum
July 2 - July 8, 2015
DNA Evidence Brings Hope, Truth - But Only If Tested; Some
Maryland Jurisdictions Slow to Report Findings
By Deidre McPhillipsCapital News Service
ANNAPOLIS — Half of a cell can free a man sent to death row,
but sometimes, that cell remains untouched, untested, and — in one case —
forgotten in a closet for years.
Kirk Bloodsworth, a former Marine and waterman from Maryland's
Eastern Shore, was on death row in 1984, convicted of the rape and murder of a
9-year-old girl. In 1993, after nine years in prison, Bloodsworth became the
first person in the United States to have been exonerated of all charges after
being sentenced to death.
Now, he walks free — because of DNA evidence and his own
extraordinary efforts to get it tested.
Maryland now mandates that its police departments test,
track and report DNA crime-scene evidence, but one year after a deadline, not
all jurisdictions have sent the state their results. Of the two largest
jurisdictions, one was more than a year late and the other still hadn't
reported as of Tuesday afternoon.
Bloodsworth said it was fate that brought him "The
Blooding," a book by Jason Wambaugh that details the account of the
first time DNA evidence was used in a criminal case in England, through the
prison's library exchange program. It inspired him to write a
letter convincing the prosecutor to allow DNA evidence testing in his case.
The prosecutor told him that the evidence had been inadvertently
destroyed, he said, but Bloodsworth thought that just because no one had seen
it, did not mean it didn't exist.
Bloodsworth said he kept pushing and the evidence was
eventually found in a cardboard box, sitting in the closet of Maryland Circuit
Court Judge James T. Smith, who had reduced Bloodsworth's
sentence to life in prison after a second appeal back in 1987. Once found, it
was shipped off to California, home to one of two DNA labs in the country at
the time.
It took a year for the results to come back, Bloodsworth
said, a year of hopeful anticipation. And when the results came, he said, there
was finally truth in his case — his DNA was not a match.
DNA evidence testing has seen great advancements since the '90s.
The average turnaround time for analysis of crime scene DNA
evidence in Maryland was 110 days in 2011, according to a 2012 audit by the
state's Office of Legislative Audits — much less than the year it took for
Bloodworth's results to come back.
There were 3,239 cases with untested data in Maryland during
a 2011 spot-check of 135 local law enforcement agencies, according to the 2012
Data from a 2013 DNA evidence collection and analysis was
due in to the Governor's Office of Crime Control and Prevention for review by
April 2014, but 33 of the state's 133 local law enforcement agencies did not submit their
data to the state before the deadline, despite a legal mandate to do so. (There
were two fewer Maryland law enforcement agencies in 2014 due to some agency
restructuring at the local level.)
The data from 31 of the non-reporting local law enforcement
agencies in 2014 would have a minor effect on overall state statistics, as
those agencies collected zero or very few DNA evidence samples, according to a
special report by the Office of Legislative Audits released in April.
But missing data from the other two — Baltimore City and
Prince George's County — would "likely have a significant effect on
the overall data," according to the special report.
In 2012, Baltimore City and Prince George's
County Police Departments accounted for 80 percent of cases with untested DNA,
with 1,349 and 1,244 untested cases, respectively.
This noncompliance frustrates Bloodsworth, who has become an
advocate for the abolishment of the death penalty since his release.
"We need transparency and we need people to get their work
done in regard to the criminal justice system. Scientists, prosecutors, police
officers — they need to play by the rules," he said. "I take
the criminal justice system seriously — I'll put it that way — and so should
they. You can't skirt around the truth."
Any delay in testing DNA evidence — whether it be years sitting in a closet or
months waiting for police departments to get through their overwhelming load of
cases — is a threat to the justice
system, Bloodsworth said.
According to a July 2013 report by the United States
Government Accountability Office, about $442 million was given to state and
local governments by The Department of Justice's National Institute of Justice to
reduce the DNA evidence testing backlog from fiscal years 2008 through 2012.
Maryland is one of 14 states — including Virginia — that has
enacted statewide reforms to reduce the backlog in rape kit testing, according
to data collected by The Accountability Project, a group dedicated to ending
the backlog of rape kit DNA testing. Nine others — including Pennsylvania — have
proposed similar reforms.
Thomas J. Barnickel III, legislative auditor with the
Department of Legislative Services, said the backlog of DNA evidence samples
and the timeliness of the information analyzed is of historical concern for
lawmakers in Maryland.
"This is information the legislators wanted, and it's in
law to collect," he said.
A bill signed into law in 2008 requires all law enforcement
agencies and the Department of State Police to report to the Governor's
Office of Crime Control and Prevention bi-annually on the collection and
analysis of DNA evidence from crime scenes. Data is to be reported on the
numbers and types of cases for which crime scene DNA evidence samples were
collected, the average turnaround time for analysis of the DNA evidence, and
the number of outstanding cases that have DNA evidence samples submitted but
not yet tested.
Maryland's Attorney General Brian E. Frosh was a state senator in
2008 and voted in favor of the bill that added the reporting requirement.
"Any breakdown in the system means delays in trials and
delays in the resolution of cases — with serious consequences for those accused
of crimes, as well as the victims of crimes," he said. "We must
look for ways for local law enforcement to have the resources they need to do their
This breakdown was a lapse in communication, said Chris
Shank, executive director of the Governor's Office of Crime Control and
Prevention, the organization tasked with collecting the data.
The local law enforcement agencies submit their reports on
crime scene DNA evidence collection through an online database, a process that
has been reworked over the years to resolve various reporting errors and
The DNA evidence data is due from the local law enforcement
agencies to the Governor's Office of Crime Control and Prevention by April 1 of
each even-numbered year by law. The Office of Legislative Audits then collects
the data from the Governor's Office of Crime Control and Prevention, which, for this
reporting cycle, happened in mid-October 2014. Shank took office in January
"There's no conspiracy here. It's all very simple. It was a lack of follow-up,
and we are in the process of remedying that now," he said.
A spokesman for the Prince George's
County Police Department said that the department did not receive a request for
the information until April 16, 2015 — more than one year later than the data
was due to the Governor's Office of Crime Control and Prevention and 10 days after
the report was released by the Office of Legislative Audits. The Baltimore City
Police Department could not be reached for comment.
The Baltimore City Police Department has recently
submitted their statistics to the Governor's
Office of Crime Control and Prevention, and data from the Prince George's
County Police Department is expected soon, said a spokeswoman for the Governor's
Office of Crime Control and Prevention.
Once complete results are compiled, the information will be
posted to the Governor's Office of Crime Control and Prevention's
website, Shank said Tuesday morning.
The 2015 legislative session of Maryland's
General Assembly, which concluded this month, was riddled with bills related to
DNA evidence.
Some — including one bill that would require the appropriate
law enforcement agency to notify the victim of a crime or their representative
of updates to a DNA profile in the case if requested, and another that expands
the types of crimes that are eligible for postconviction DNA testing — were
passed by the General Assembly and were signed by Gov. Larry Hogan Tuesday.
Another — a bill that
would require additional testing to confirm a DNA match with a database entry
before it is admissible in trial — did
For Gale Seaton, DNA evidence is about hope.
"It's tangible, physical evidence when all else fails," she
said. "It's DNA — you can't refute DNA."
Seaton's daughter, Stacey, was murdered in Bowie in Prince George's
County in 2005. But it wasn't until 2009 that the cigarette butt found next to Stacey's head
was tested for DNA evidence.
Leaving DNA samples untested is a problem across the
country, said Russell Butler, executive director and litigator for the Maryland
Crime Victims Resource Center.
"Police are the ones investigating. Prosecutors are the
ones litigating. If no one is pushing, they'll have other unsolved crimes and new
cases to focus on. But for victims and survivors, knowledge is power. They can
help their case get noticed," he said.
Seaton said investigators promised her an answer by the time
of her daughter's funeral, but instead didn't recognize her name when she called.
When the police department called two months later to say there
was nothing else they could do, Seaton said, she took it upon herself to keep
the case moving.
A 2009 article in a local newspaper, The Bowie Blade, about
the unsolved case grabbed the police department's attention, and they made an arrest
within two weeks, Seaton said.
McDonald Abraham III was sentenced to 15 years in prison and
five years of supervised probation in connection with the murder of Stacey
Seaton, but it was not his DNA on the cigarette butt found near the scene of
the crime. The DNA matched that of a man Abraham said he paid to kill Seaton.
That man was found not guilty.
But, for Seaton, knowing was enough. The DNA evidence test
results brought her a sense of peace, she said.
"My belief system was shattered after Stacey's
death. I believed everything worked right, but I grew distrustful of the police
— it almost killed me," she said. "Now I have to believe that everybody
gets justice in the end — whether it's karma or God, I truly believe that
there's justice."
Bloodsworth has also been able to feel a sense of relief.
Ten years after DNA evidence proved he wasn't
guilty and nearly 20 years after the crime was committed, Bloodsworth learned
that the true killer had been found. The DNA evidence that remained untouched
until Bloodsworth's prompting — semen found on underwear at the scene of the
crime — matched that of Kimberly Shay
Ruffner, a known sexual criminal who had just been released from prison at the
time of the 1984 murder. Ruffner pleaded guilty in a 2004 trial.
Bloodsworth now lives in Pennsylvania, where he enjoys a
spending time with his girlfriend and silversmithing his own jewelry, a life
afforded to him by what he calls luck.
"I read the book that came to me in the mail and
had one of the best genetic scientists test my evidence. The only thing that
separated me from freedom was half of one cell," he
said. "That half of one cell cleared me of everything.
That half of one cell caught the real killer."
Hoyer Delivers Remarks at PG County 2015 Housing Fair
By PRESS OfficerOffice of Steny Hoyer
LANDOVER, MD — Congressman Steny H. Hoyer (MD-5) delivered
remarks on June 13, 2015 at the Prince George's County Department of Housing and
Community Development 2015 Housing Fair, entitled, "Prince
George's County: A Great Place to Live." The housing fair was open to
homeowners and those looking to purchase a home. Participants had an
opportunity to attend a panel discussion with housing experts and meet with
housing industry professionals such as mortgage lenders, realtors and housing
"There is nothing more fundamental to the American Dream
than homeownership," said Congressman Steny Hoyer. "Here in
Prince George's County, the state, federal, and local governments have
partnered to help make the goal of homeownership more attainable. This is an
exciting time for Prince George's County, and the relocation of the state Department of
Housing and Community Development to New Carrollton in April is a sign of the
attention we're getting as a county that's growing and on the move."
"Our housing recovery continues to move forward, but many
people are still finding themselves underwater or struggling to afford
payments," continued Congressman Hoyer. "Prince
George's County was hit hard by the housing downturn with more
than 50,000 homes going into foreclosure since 2007. We're
doing much better today, but for those still facing difficulty, it does not
feel like a recovery yet. I'm working hard to attract the new FBI Headquarters here,
and I've made it a major priority to help show businesses the
merit of moving here and creating good jobs here. Every day, more and more
people are realizing that Prince George's County isn't just 'a great
place to live,' but a great place to invest as well. I look forward to
continuing to work with state officials and with my colleagues in the Maryland
Congressional Delegation to ensure that homeowners and homebuyers seeking to
put down roots here and stay in their communities have the tools necessary to
do so."
Prince George's
County's first Net-Zero Energy Home was also open today
for attendees to view. The remodeled, century old home was designed to provide
superior energy savings, water efficiency and a healthy living environment. The
home is an example of how even the oldest homes in the county can be made more
energy efficient and achieve savings for homeowners.
PG County Library Receives Grants for Early Literacy EventsLibrary Café events show parents how to prepare their
children to learn to read
By Press OfficerPGCPS
LAUREL, MD.—Prince George's County Memorial Library System
received two $500 grants supporting its Library Cafés, events designed to
educate parents and caregivers about simple, everyday practices that promote
early literacy skills. Upcoming Library Cafés will reach 80 families in
high-need areas of Prince George's County.
The grants came from the Ezra Jack Keats Foundation and the
Defending the
Early Years project. The Ezra Jack Keats Foundation, named
after the children's book author, supports arts and literacy in public
schools and libraries and recognizes new children's book authors. Similarly, Defending
the Early Years seeks to rally educators to take action on policies that affect
the education of young children.
"We're delighted to receive funding from two generous
organizations that share our goal of developing early literacy skills in young
children," said Kathleen Teaze, CEO of Prince George's
County Memorial Library System. "Our Library Cafés work toward this goal,
preparing children to read in elementary school and laying the foundation for
success later in life."
Prince George's County librarians begin Library Café
events with brief presentations showing parents and caregivers how to integrate
talking, singing, reading, writing and drawing into everyday activities with
their children. Refreshments are provided. Afterward, families cycle through
five stations of simple, developmentally appropriate activities illustrating
these skills. Each family receives a bag of early literacy resources, educational
toys and a children's book following the event.
"Our hope is that each family will see that daily reading,
nurturing interactions and playing are the most important activities that
parents can provide for their children during their early years to prepare them
for school and life," said Rachel Zukowski, youth services coordinator for
Prince George's County Memorial Library System. Zukowski organizes the
Library Café events with Pam Hamlin, family literacy specialist for the library
"Through the cafés, we hope that parents and caregivers
will strengthen their relationships with each other and see the library as a
part of their support system," Zukowski said.
Prince George's County Memorial Library System will
hold Library Café events this fall.

County Council, Overrides County Executive VetoOverride Avoids a 15.6 Percent Increase in Property Taxes in
Fiscal Year 2016
By Press OfficerPG County Government
This evening the County Council voted to override the County
Executive's budget veto, preventing a double-digit property tax
increase. Residents and businesses have said this double-digit tax increase is
unaffordable, and hurtful to our economic recovery.
The County Council, as the Legislative Branch of government,
has the legislative authority to override the County Executive's veto
of this lawfully enacted budget. Tonight, we have exercised our authority to do
so, preserving the balance of new investment in education; affordability for
working families and small businesses; and fiscal accountability for existing
The County Executive, aided by the County Attorney, has
raised the possibility of litigation. This is an effort to force this Council
to impose a double-digit tax increase on working families. The stunning prospect of the County Executive
essentially suing this Council, and thus the nearly 900,000 residents we
represent, would be self-destructive, self-defeating and irresponsible,
especially given the major economic opportunities this County is pursuing.
The instability at the top of our government demonstrated by
such litigation could seriously imperil key opportunities for this County and
its residents, including securing the FBI headquarters and building a new
Regional Medical Center. The County
Executive and County Attorney's interpretation of the law is wrong; would
unconstitutionally erode our system of checks and balances; and give the County
Executive the near unlimited power to raise taxes.
This Council will not allow that to happen. We are confident the budget we adopted
represents the best plan for measured investment with fiscal accountability to
move our County forward.
The members of this body take our responsibility
as stewards of the taxpayers' money seriously, and we always seek to work
prudently in the best interests of the County and its residents.
WSSC, Prince George's County Public Schools Launch New
Fats, Oils and Grease CurriculumStudents Use Hands-On Approach to Learning About the Harmful
Effects Fats, Oils and Grease Have on Sewer Systems
By Press OfficerWSSC
Laurel — WSSC and Prince George's
County Public Schools (PGCPS) celebrated the launch of a countywide
curriculum-approved Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG) lesson that teaches students
about the sewer system and the harmful effects FOG can have when poured into the
sewer pipes. County and WSSC officials gathered at Walker Mill Middle School on
Friday, June 5 as 24 students took part in their first FOG science lesson.
PGCPS sixth graders will be taking an up-close look at the
causes and consequences of FOG. The new lesson uses the five E's model
for teaching — engagement, exploration, explanation, elaboration and
evaluation. Through hands-on activities students explore the environmental
impact of FOG and how solutions can help keep the Chesapeake Bay and waterways
clean and sewer pipes free of FOG.
"This is an exciting opportunity that not only helps
promote STEM education at a young age but also encourages and empowers kids to
join the fight against FOG" said Wayne Ludwig, WSSC Fats, Oils and Grease Program
Unit Coordinator. "Showing kids how their family's every
day cooking can create contaminants that can clog pipes and potentially result
in messy, stinky sewer backups and overflows can help reach adults and
encourage them to can the grease instead of pouring it down the drain."
"The students' parents sent emails saying how they
never knew they couldn't pour grease down the drain," said
Nadine Gaujean, sixth grade teacher at Walker Mill Middle School. "Their
kids told them how important it is to can the grease instead. They didn't know
until they learned it from their kids."
The new FOG lesson is aligned to meet Maryland state
standards and was approved by the PGCPS Board of Education in 2014. PGCPS
teachers began rolling out the new lesson in February. WSSC and PGCPS worked
side by side throughout development of the lesson curriculum, which included
technical expertise and training from WSSC's FOG experts.

Grease page at wsscwater.com/canthegrease.

year. For schools interested in learning more about WSSC's school-specific programs and other

In an iOS 6 app I have some view controllers that are added as observers with the default notification center. They are added in the
viewDidLoad method because I want the controllers to receive the notifications even when they are not on top.
A lot of people recommend removing the observer in the
dealloc method. However, I have been logging messages with
NSLog() both when adding and removing the observer, and it looks like
dealloc is never called (I am using ARC).
Contrary to what one would think, the
viewDidUnload method is not an option, since in iOS 5 it was only called during low-memory conditions, and in iOS 6 it is not called at all.
It actually seems that there is no way to do what the documentation requires! So far, my application has not crashed, by the way, even though controllers are being added multiple times and (apparently) never removed.
Note: So far I have been testing with the simulator only; is it possible that
dealloc does get called in an actual device, but not in the simulator? Or is the call to
NSLog() just not showing up (it shows up everywhere else, though).

AbstractRidgetop's innovative solution will improve the dependability and reliability of the battery system through monitoring and balancing the state-of-charge of the individual cells within the battery pack. This innovation will significantly reduce maintenance and unnecessary battery pack replacement costs for critical military applications. The primary reliability problem with battery packs can be traced to differences in the individual cells comprising the battery. Normally, only the aggregate overall voltage of the battery pack is measured, but the individual degraded cell is not isolated. In that case, no anomaly may be detected, but usage time can be greatly diminished. To avoid this problem, battery packs are routinely replaced even though they don't exhibit any problems. This is a very costly procedure. Ridgetop Group will design an innovative application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC)-based solution that will monitor and control the charging of each cell in a 20-cell series-connected battery pack. The Intelligent Control Module ASIC will also provide important prognostic and usage/lifetime feedback to the user and maintenance personnel.

HOWTO: How to Print a Single Line Without Formfeed
Article ID: 124649 - View products that this article applies to.
This article was previously published under Q124649
This article has been archived. It is offered "as is" and will no longer be updated.
This article shows by example how to have an application print one line at a time without a formfeed. Windows does not inherently provide this ability because it is in direct conflict with the design philosophy of a multitasking operating system.
One method of single-line printing, including sample code, is provided here. This method uses the combination of the raw.drv sample printer driver and the PASSTHROUGH escape, and supports printing over a network. It has the following limitations:
If you are sure no other application will use the same printer, you can have your application print one line at a time to a dot matrix printer without issuing a formfeed. Use the raw.drv sample printer driver and the PASSTHROUGH escape to accomplish this. Follow these steps:

Ice Clear Europe, the facility set up by Atlanta-based central counterparty (CCP) IntercontinentalExchange (Ice) for the clearing of European credit default swaps (CDS), has obtained regulatory approval and started clearing operations.
Ice Clear Europe underwent a regulatory review by the UK's Financial Services Authority (FSA), and has started clearing CDS contracts, just two days before the European Commission's July 31 deadline for CCPs to begin clearing CDSs.
The launch of Ice Clear Europe, which has started by clearing iTraxx contracts, follows the launch of its US CCP, Ice Trust, on March 9. The initial CDS clearing members of the CCP are Bank of America, Barclays, Citi, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley and UBS.
Meanwhile, another contender for European CDS clearing, an unnamed venture launched by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and Chicago-based hedge fund Citadel Investment Group, remains in discussions with the UK FSA.
Frankfurt-based exchange Eurex will begin clearing European index and single-name CDS on July 30, the exchange said on July 24.
Ice Clear Europe has also appointed Suzanne Hubble as director of CDS development. Hubble will be responsible for the CCP's European CD clearing business. Before joining the CCP, Hubble spent 10 years at JP Morgan, where she was most recently responsible for electronic commerce and strategic initiatives for the European credit trading business.

Conveniently located near the train station and the Ferrari museum, though a bit of a walk to the old town and other attractions in Modena. A decent stop for a night, with small, simple, and clean rooms.

A trip to Modena and Balsamic vinegar heaven
Today, we went to a beautiful home I Modena where they produce Balsamuc Vinegar over many years. We tasted 7 vinegars that were aged from 15-25 years. They were so unique with subtle differences. They dont sell to shops, but freight to anywhere in the world.
We had a brilliant education session and got a whole new appreciation for it.
Ummm, needless to say I bought some.
Here's some history from the family ...
Bloody hot in Bologna
... on the way past.
Next we dropped into the Archaeological Museum of Bologna. It has one of the best Egyptian collections in Europe, apparently. We wandered through that looking at some amazing mummies or people and cats and ibis. Anita decided to say in the cool of the Egyptian section while explored the history of Bologna on the first floor. The exhibits went back to the Etruscan time before the Romans, then of course ...
Food glorious food (seafood)
... Fede's from Sydney, who she had also organised to pick up at the same point. Fede drove us to a restaurant near her place and we had lunch with Fede, Marco, George and Fede's parents. Fede's mother doesn't speak English so everything she said to us had to be translated. A lovely family. We began lunch with a type of pasta we hadn't seen and its name means something like strangled pasta. It was in a creamy tomato sauce with shell fish in it. Secondi was a ...
Relaxed day in Bologna
... 11:20 but no passengers got off and they wouldn't let anyone on. Our train arrived at 11:25 and we all got on and left by 11:35am. The passengers for the 10:55 to Venizia were still standing on the platform waiting to get on. Strange train system in Italy.
In the afternoon Anita had a rest in the hotel in Bologna while I went hunting for a dry cleaners as the hotel laundry didn't work over the weekend. I found three dry cleaners but two were ...
Florence via Maranello
... constant stream of motor-cyclists, hell-bent on personal destruction, who tore past us every few minutes... I'm sure I saw Barnsey there somewhere, except that there was a surprising propensity for BMWs...
It was funny as a circus - poor Treas, was almost horizontal in the seat, almost lying in my lap one minute and then trying to lean out the window the next, as she tried to escape ...

Yes, look in COMCat to find our print books and many eBooks. I found one title on Henry VIII:
Henry VIII and the English Reformation DA 332 R48 1993
If the information does not have to come from a book, you might try the History & Genealogy tab on the Databases LibGuide to find lots more information on Herny VIII.
Also, we can Interlibrary Loan books from other libraries for COM students, faculty and staff. We just need publication information like author, title, date published. You can find out more about getting books from other libraries.

ArteQuesta Artist Evan Skrederstu Announces Participation in Upcoming Japanese Yokai Exhibit
ArteQuesta today announced that Evan Skrederstu, a Los Angeles-based urban artist and member of street-art collective UGLARworks (Unified Group of Los Angeles Residents), will be a featured artist in an upcoming exhibition titled "Beware! Yokai!" at the Empire Seven Studios in San Jose, Calif.
Commonly translated as a ghost, phantom, or strange apparition, the term yokai has been used for the supernatural in Japanese culture for hundreds of years. Descriptions of yokai range vastly from the malevolent or mischievous to good fortune. The exhibit will explore yokai history through both traditional and unorthodox perspectives. The show will also expand on a number of themes previously explored by the popular exhibit "Perseverance: Japanese Tattoo Tradition in the Modern World" at the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles.
The exhibit includes painting, animation, sculpture, and murals completely immersing the visitor in a world of yokai. The exhibition has been curated by Chris Brand and Takahiro Kitamura. The opening reception will be Friday, October 10 with media opportunities for artist and curator interviews.
For more information about the exhibition please visit the Empire Seven Studios website. http://www.empiresevenstudios.com/ .

The Maharashtra government will soon table an insurance scheme under which a girl child born in below poverty line families will get Rs 1 lakh for education on turning 18.
Mooted by the Ministry of Women and Child Development, the scheme Sukanya will be tabled in the Cabinet meeting on Friday.
Under the scheme, if a girl child is born in a BPL family, the government will deposit Rs 21,200 in her name after January 2014. "The girl will get Rs 1 lakh on maturity after she is above 18, for her education purposes," said an official.
Earlier, WCD Minister Varsha Gaikwad, who had initiated the scheme, had met with opposition from the finance department and Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar in view of the possible burden on the state exchequer.
"Over 2 lakh girls are born every year in BPL families and they are expected to be covered under the scheme, which is likely to cost the state government around Rs 576 crore," said the official.
The ministry is also expected to table a proposal aimed to provide financial aid to rape and acid attack victims in the next week's cabinet meeting.
"Around Rs 3 lakh would be granted as financial assistance to victims of rape and acid attacks for their treatment, legal aid, counselling and rehabilitation purposes," added the official.

On jokers, tools, and clowns.
Here's the story of Eleven Warriors,
It was looking for a scribe to write some stuff,
It was awesome, but wanted extra content,
From someone who'd take no guff.

And they knew that it was much more than a hunch,
That the two would somehow come together,
That's how Nicholas joined the Dubber Bunch. The Dubber Bunch,

Tackling Damage to Vehicles ABOUT THESE GUIDES This is one in a series of guides designed to share ideas for tackling vandalism and other forms of criminal damage. They are based, as far as possible, on examples we have found from around the UK and further afield. Although in most cases these have not been rigorously evaluated, they have been reported to have been successful in tackling this sort of crime. This guide outlines approaches to tackling damage to vehicles. Other guides already produced in this series are available at: www.crimereduction.gov.uk/criminaldamage Topics include tools and powers for tackling criminal damage, problem analysis, arson, repeat victimisation and tackling youth vandalism. These guides are updated as necessary, this is the second version of this guide. If you have any comments on this guide please email: email@example.com WHY TACKLE DAMAGE TO VEHICLES? Damage to vehicles represents a large proportion of criminal damage overall. The British Crime Surveyi (BCS 2006/07) measured 2,993,000 offences of vandalism, of which just under 1.9 million were offences of vandalism to vehicles. This represents 17% of all BCS offences. Recorded crime figures (2006/07) show that 41% (483,266) of criminal damage was damage to vehicles. The level of damage to vehicles appears to be rising. BCS interviews for 2006/07 show a 12% increase in the number of incidents of vehicle vandalism when compared to the 2005/06 interviews. Levels of vehicle vandalism have been rising since a low of 1,511,000 in the 2001/02 BCS interviews. Successfully tackling damage to vehicles will help to reduce overall levels of criminal damage, thus increasing quality of life and public satisfaction, and reducing fear of crime. CHARACTERISTICS OF DAMAGE TO VEHICLES The BCS data for 2005/06ii shows that most damage to private vehicles involved scratched body work (38%), damaged body work (23%) and damage to wing mirrors (21%)1. o BCS Reported Damage to Vehicles 2005/06: Type of Damage Fire damage Damage to steering/ door lock Let down tyres Smashed windscreen Broken window (side) Slashed tyres Other Damage to wing mirrors Damage to bodywork Scratched bodywork 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 Percentage Damage The BCS (2005/06) shows that for households that own vehicles, the risk of victimisation from vehicle vandalism was higher in an area where there was a high perceived level of physical disorder (10%) compared with a low level (6%). MEASURING DAMAGE TO VEHICLES As with all criminal damage, it is difficult to get an accurate picture of the level of damage from police records alone. It is estimated that less than one in three incidents of criminal damage is reported to the police (BCS 2006/07). To get as accurate a picture as possible: o Engage with local transport companies, businesses and public services who may be able to provide a fuller picture. Check whether attempted thefts or vehicle interference are not distorting the figures for damage to vehicles. Incorrect counting will affect analysis and may result in the implementation of an inappropriate response. Consider whether the picture is distorted by false reports. Is accidental damage to wing mirrors in a narrow street, or bumpers in tight spaces being crimed? o The percentages in the table add up to more than 100% as more than one type of damage can be recorded per incident. 1 Version 2, August 2007. Page 1 of 3 ANALYSING THE PROBLEM Damage to vehicles is unlikely to have one single cause. Understanding the problem through analysis will help you find appropriate solutions. You may wish to look at: o o Whether the profile of damage in your area differs greatly from the national picture. If so, why might this be? The type of damage to vehicles – could the damage have been accidental (e.g. knocked wing mirrors in a narrow street) or intentional (e.g. keying several cars parked on a road)? The location of damage – is it taking place on the street, in car parks or private driveways? Links with the night time economy – is damage to vehicles happening in areas close to pubs and clubs? The time of day, and day of the week – are most incidents at night time, or during the day? Are there peaks in the level of damage to vehicles on particular days? Links with theft of or from vehicles and vehicle interference – are there common problems or factors? Links to the Night Time Economy If damage to vehicles is happening in areas close to pubs or clubs, work with licensees and Night Time Economy managers to reduce damage to vehicles caused by revellers. Night bus services can help disperse people quickly from night time economy venues and away from town centres, which may reduce the likelihood of criminal damage incidents in those areas. Night marshals can be used to manage the main points at which people join the buses. Designing out crime Where problem analysis shows a hot spot for damage to vehicles, visit the site to identify the cause or contributory factors and consult with Crime Prevention Officers to find ways to design out crime. A lack of secure parking may be a contributory factor. If a hot spot is a car park then achieving the standards of the Police Safer Parking Scheme will help. You may wish to consider seeking to extend their opening hours into the night if damage is occurring at this time. Consider promoting the use of unused driveways or garages; there are a number of commercial organisations that act as brokers for the rental of unused parking spaces. Any provision of alternatives to on street parking should ensure that secure parking is provided in areas where it is needed and owners can make their way safely to and from the vehicle. If there are limited alternatives to on street parking, encouraging drivers to fold in wing mirrors and retract aerials may help to reduce damage. Crime Prevention Officers may be able to advise on the use of CCTV, improved lighting or visibility. In Great Yarmouth, where hotspot locations for damage to vehicles are identified, leaflets are sent to residents advising them to retract their aerial and fold in wing mirrors when they park. The leaflet also reminds them to remove visible items from the car and provides the crimestoppers number. o o o o The Jill Dando Institute worked with the Government Office for the West Midlands who identified a problem with damage to vehicles. Analysis of data, local intelligence and media reports indicated that the damage was mainly tyre slashing. Tyre slashing was found to be more prevalent at night and residential areas were heavily targeted. The analysis helped to identify a prolific offender.* As part of their research on repeat victimisation, the Scottish Executive looked at repeats of damage to vehicles and theft from vehicles. They found that streets were often targeted on the same night and criminals tend to target one side of the street. They also found that some vehicles were particularly vulnerable.** The Problem Analysis guide provides further information on this. REDUCING DAMAGE TO VEHICLES Your analysis of the local problem will inform appropriate actions. Some suggestions for tackling damage to vehicles are included here. A longer term approach is to work with planning officers to ensure that secure parking provision is considered in new developments as well as identifying ways to reduce the vulnerability of vehicles in existing developments. Version 2, August 2007. Page 2 of 3 Investigation and detection Neighbourhood policing teams have been effective in investigating damage to vehicles. Investing resource into investigation may yield greater benefit than detecting a single incident. An investigation into one incident of damage to a vehicle may uncover links with other incidents such as fights or disorder that have lead to accidental damage. Investigation into a spate of deliberate attacks on vehicles may enable the detection of a series of incidents. Police Community Support Officers at Moorlands West Neighbourhood Policing Unit visit any victims of vehicle damage, carry out house to house calls and leaflet drop crimestoppers information. This has seen an increase in calls to crimestoppers resulting in arrests and warrants being executed. As part of Operation Excalibur Lothian and Borders Police take photographs of criminal damage and publish them on their website with appeals for information. Detections are also published on the website. In one area a local male has been charged with 18 crimes of vandalism and break-ins to vehicles. Appeals to the public for information on offenders may bring positive results. Publicising the crimestoppers number and talking directly to local residents and businesses may provide useful information. Those committing damage to vehicles may be involved in other criminal activity or antisocial behaviour. Equally, work on other initiatives such as sweeps on untaxed and uninsured vehicles may help indirectly to reduce damage to vehicles. These may also have other benefits by increasing parking for legitimate vehicles, reducing their risk of victimisation. Interviews with known offenders may shed light not only on other offences which could be taken into consideration, but could also provide information on modus operandi and choice of target.

So, here I taste, on camera, two different Rieslings. One from Australia's Eden Valley; one from Alsace. I like them both.
This is an unbelievably good wine. I love it.
It's Tom Shobbrook's Giallo. A Sauvignon Blanc, but made naturally, with some skin contact. And fabulously packaged, too.
'The Sauvignon is fermented on skins for about 6 weeks or until I get the structure I want,' says Tom. 'Then it's pressed and put into casks. It's bottled 9 months [...]
There's something to be said for buying a few bottles of the same wine, then cellaring them, and revisiting them at intervals. It's tremendously rewarding if the wine ages well.
This wine is an example of where I have done this. I can find notes on the same wine back in 2007, when it was three years [...]
Just tried these two brilliant Chardonnays from Tom Carson at Yabby Lake. Two more examples of the amazing revolution in Aussie Chardonnay that has taken place over the last few years.
Yabby Lake Vineyard Single Vineyard Chardonnay 2010 Mornington Peninsula, Australia
I love this wine. It typifies what is happening with high-end Aussie Chardonnay at the moment – the embrace of elegance and freshness over weight and richness – picking earlier and producing complex, taut wines.
Oakridge Local Vineyard Series Lusatia Park Vineyard Chardonnay 2011 Yarra Valley, Australia
It was a beautiful pre-spring day today in London. I was doing some staff wine training for Hakkasan, the brilliant Chinese-inspired restaurant chain with two London outposts. The first session was on 'smooth reds', and among the tasting wines were these three beauties.
Domaine Daniel Rion Nuits St Georges Les Hauts Pruliers 1er Cru 2006 Burgundy
Met with Michael Hill-Smith today at the shiny new Liberty Wine offices in Clapham, to taste the latest releases of Shaw & Smith.
For me, this is one of Australia's leading wineries. They make just four wines, all of which are excellent, from the cool-ish climate Adelaide Hills region in South Australia.

Had Ryan Mostert and Samantha Suddons over for dinner on Thursday night. They are a young couple working at one of South Africa's most exciting wineries, Reyneke, and so we opened a lot of nice bottles. 11 in all, between four of us.

This is rather good. It's a Tyrrells exclusive for UK retailer Marks & Spencer, and it's the real deal. Proper Hunter Semillon, just entering its long drinking window. It's not cheap, but this is a serious fine wine that will age well. And occasionally, M&S have 25% off the range, when this becomes a very [...]

Paracord bracelets, lanyards, necklaces and other items are fun to wear and they can be very useful in certain situations. However, you should be aware that since paracord is extremely strong and some of the items can contain small parts, they can be dangerous to humans and animals. Most of the side-release buckles and other clasps and shackles are very strong, so like most clothing, if they are caught in a piece of machinery, they can become entangled and result in injury. You should always remove paracord items before operating machinery, tools, paper shredders or other items which may result in injury if your paracord item may become entangled.

DAWN OF THE DEAD - Firing Range DemoJun 22, 2009 Movies 1 comment
An in game Video showing a demonstration of an Animated Firing Range that I made for this Total Conversion Mod.
This is a Total Conversion mod that i'm working on using the MAX PAYNE 1 Gaming engine (MaxED). The mods based on the 1978 Cult Classic Zombie Horror movie DAWN OF THE DEAD, & i'm trying to stick as closely as can to the movie, & as closely as the MaxED will allow me. I'm also using the DIRECTORS CUT version of the movie as refferance. This mod will have the same story, weapons, characters, music, & green skinned Zombies as the original movie, & just like that movie you will have to shoot the Zombies in the head to kill them.

An in game Video showing a demonstration of an Animated Firing Range that I made for this Total Conversion Mod.
This video is the first main/long video that I've made for my DAWN OF THE DEAD. The video contains footage of just some of the work that i've achieved...
This is the second teaser video that I've just recently made for my DAWN OF THE DEAD mod, but unlike the first video this one does contain some in game...
This video's been on the web for some time now, but I've decided to post it up on ModDB also, just to have all my video's in one place. This teaser video...
This is a video of the rolling script that I wrote for my mod, it appears just before you start the first level & it gives you a bit of background...
You have my vote!
Cheers mate ;-}
Keep on truckin' Hope you had a nice Halloween!
Cheers mate, I hope you had a great Halloween also. ;-)
Wow,this's cool. I never installed max payne mods and played only in original MP. But think i have to install it when it'll be released.
Cheers Mate...;-)
Dude when r u goin' to release beta or demo?
Never, as this mod is story driven...Sorry mate.
You mean you want to release full release? Cool. It's hard to wait it.
Good to see your still alive and kicking! Was afraid you had gone avol :P
Everything is looking top notch mate. Though i cant seem to remember a Canteen from the movie? or it might just be a long time since i saw Dawn of the dead last.
Im working on a TC for mp2 as we speak, so check it out It's called Kung Fu Evolution. Could use some inputs if you have any :)
Your right about a Canteen not being in the original movie, but what you have to understand is that making a game is different to making a movie. i.e. when you watch a movie all you are seeing is what you see through the camera lens, which is often 1 room, or part of a room, but when making a game you have to elaborate on this because the player not only has to be able to see & walk around the whole of the room, but also see any adjoining rooms which it would be nice to be able to also enter, as it would be a very strange game indeed if it was just filled with 1 roomed levels with no adjoining rooms, or 1 room filled with a load of locked doors that lead to no where.
Continued below...
Another point I would like to make is that when making a game that is so closely base on a movie, you still have to elaborate on the storyline now & then, i.e. have things happen that didn't happen in the movie, or perhaps cut unnecessary things out of the storyline. This is because, when you break a movie down, you'll find that most of the time 75% of it will be talking which if replicated in a game would make for a very tiresome game that is short on action.
So with this in mind you have to cut the talky bits out, but then after you have done this you can be left with a very short game indeed, so what you then have to do is fill it out a bit with things that are true to the situation but didn't actually happen in the movie, but as long as you return to the original storyline after these segments there should be no problem, & these added pieces of game play also give your players something fresh & unexpected to enjoy.
So with these 2 points in mind I can tell you that the confrontation with the River police at the start of this movie has been removed & doesn't happen in my game. This is because no action took place in that part of the movie, just talking.
However, the River Police station itself is still intact & there is a new segment to the game added here where you have to search the building for any survivors killing all Zombies that you may happen upon as you do so, & this canteen is part of this extended building.
I hope this rather long explination answers your question... ;-)

YIELD: Serves 4 to 6
Cut the cauliflower into medium florets. Put into a large pan, cover with cold water, add some salt, and bring up to a rolling boil. This will partly cook the cauliflower. Take off the heat right away, drain well, and keep warm in the pan.
Heat the oil in a second large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, and ginger and sauté for about 10 minutes, stirring often.
Add the ground coriander, cumin, chile flakes, star anise, and some salt and pepper and cook for a further 5 minutes.
Add the tomatoes with their juice and the chickpeas. Stir well, then add the parcooked cauliflower. Pour in enough cold water to almost but not quite cover everything (1/3 to 3/4 cup/100 to 200ml) and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the cauliflower is tender.
Stir in the garam masala and half of the chopped cilantro, then check the seasoning. Serve scattered with the remaining cilantro and accompanied by rice, flat breads, or naan.

If you asked my friends they would describe me as a "social chameleon", since I seem to be able to get along with close to anyone (or at the very least tolerate them).
I am very spontaneous. I love road trips, wherever they may lead. Although more often than not, they lead to the ocean.

CEO behind synthetic pot Izms arrested in $2-million drug raid
Adam Wookey arrested as police seize 50 kg of pot, coke and more.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
The CEO of a company that sells what he calls a legal marijuana alternative is in hot water once again after police made a $2-million bust of illegal drugs, arresting five men including him.
Adam Wookey, the 29-year-old CEO of The Izms, was arrested Monday along with four other men. He faces drug trafficking charges related to marijuana and MDMA (ecstasy), as well as possessing the proceeds of crime.
Wookey has a storied history with the law, beginning in 2002 when police found cocaine and marijuana in his apartment. He was sentenced to 22 months in a provincial jail. Wookey is the nephew of Toronto City Council candidate Simon Wookey and grandson of Richard Wookey, the developer of Hazelton Lanes.
Wookey tangled with the law earlier this year when Hamilton police sought his arrest after someone robbed a downtown Love Shop in January, demanding their entire supply of Izms. Wookey turned himself in and has steadfastly maintained that the products sold by Izms are not illegal.
The charges were stayed in court in May with no explanation given. The most recent charges are not related to Izms, according to police.
Wookey's father, Peter Wookey, was arrested and charged in February after police seized 200 grams of marijuana and 45 grams of cannabis resin from a residence in the area of Hazelton Ave. and Davenport Rd. He was released on a promise to appear in court.
Wookey appeared in court Tuesday morning and was granted $10,000 bail.
The co-ordinated raid, which took place Monday in York Region and Toronto, netted two kg of cocaine, 30 kg of marijuana, 17.5 kg of MDMA, as well as quantities of heroin, crystal methamphetamine and ketamine, along with about $90,000 in cash.
A family member reached by phone Tuesday night declined to comment on the arrest.
Toronto police arrested five men — four from Toronto and one from Richmond Hill. The group face a total of 59 drug-related offences. Rico Batak, 25, and Mustafa Farouk, 25, both face charges in connection with the distribution of marijuana, MDMA, cocaine, ketamine, heroin and crystal methamphetamine.
Wookey, along with Kyle Edward-Turrell, 41, and Gabriel Pretto-Viani, 29, face charges in connection with trafficking MDMA and marijuana.

The people who ran big companies were always relatively well paid, but the meaning of "relatively well paid" is now altogether different.

Much of the complexity of modern finance is the result of regulatory arbitrage – avoiding or minimising restrictions by engaging in a transaction with more or less identical effect but more favourable regulatory treatment. Many regulators still cling to the hope that it could be eliminated if only rules were sufficiently extensive and sufficiently carefully prescribed. But this is an illusion.
