Red light cameras, speeding debated at final Collier Sheriff's Office town hall meeting
NAPLES - From bullying in schools to laws regulating the use of motorcycle helmets, no concern was too big or too small Wednesday night, as Collier County Sheriff Kevin Rambosk wrapped up two weeks of town hall meetings held in each of the agency's six districts.
Now, Rambosk will take the suggestions offered by residents around the county and online and use them to shape the Sheriff's Office's Community Safety Plan for the coming year.
"We all live in a great and safe place, and we want to keep it that way," Rambosk told about 50 residents who attended Wednesday night's meeting in the community room at the Naples Daily News, 1100 Immokalee Road.
The meeting, like the previous five, ran from 6 p.m. to about 7:30 p.m.
This year's meetings are follow-ups to similar town hall meetings the Sheriff's Office held last March. The goal this year was to follow-up with residents on progress made since the last meetings, and to build on the five community priorities established last year: communication/information, traffic safety, crime prevention, youth programs, and community outreach programs.
Brian Messner, 45, attended Wednesday's meeting with his wife, Donna. He expressed concern about what he sees as the increasing problem of speeding and aggressive driving in Southwest Florida. Messner did not have any specific suggestions about how deputies could address the problem.
"I just wanted to raise the issue," Messner said.
In fact, speeding was a common topic brought up at many of the town hall meetings, Rambosk said. He said he was using the meetings to identify specific locations where speeding is a problem.
Prior to Wednesday's meeting, Rambosk said that red-light running cameras hadn't been brought up at any of the previous five meetings. However, there was a brief debate about the use of the cameras on Wednesday, with most in attendance seemingly in support of the controversial program and literally applauding the effort.
Other popular topics from the six meetings included: more neighborhood partnerships, expanded crime mapping online, increasing the number of youth programs, and continuing to pressure the state legislature to regulate texting while driving, which Rambosk called the agency's number one legislative priority.
"We're frustrated, too," Rambosk said about the lack of regulations. "We can't take enforcement action until we have a law."
In Immokalee, residents encouraged Rambosk to make sure drivers in the community have licenses and insurance.
Everglades residents emphasized the need to crack down on prescription drug abuse and suggested establishing a national monitoring system for prescriptions.
In Golden Gate, residents suggested improving street lighting and establishing a mobile command post that could be brought to neighborhoods where crime is an issue.
Rambosk said the Sheriff's Office will invite residents from each of the six districts to a planning meeting to represent their district and their district's priorities. People who couldn't make it to one of the six meetings can still participate by sending their concerns or suggestions electronically, via the "Got a Great Idea" banner on the bottom of the Sheriff's Office's website, www.colliersheriff.org.
"We want to hear from everybody all year long, not just tonight," Rambosk told the crowd in North Naples.
Dean Moore, 70, who attended Wednesday's meeting with her husband Bill, was concerned about videos she saw on the television news recently about children fighting in school. She was happy that she had the opportunity to voice her concerns to the sheriff, but thought more people should have attended the meeting.
Rambosk said he plans to hold town hall meetings again next year.
"I found it very informative," Moore said. "I think more people need to be aware of what's going on in their community."

LOS ANGELES The Los Angeles Dodgers today acquired outfielder Shane Victorino from the Philadelphia Phillies in exchange for right-handed reliever Josh Lindblom, minor league right-hander Ethan Martin and a player to be named later or cash considerations. Dodger General Manager Ned Colletti made the announcement. Were excited to add an All-Star caliber player with postseason experience, said Colletti. He plays the game with passion, gives us a top of the order bat from both sides of the plate, can steal bases and is solid defensively in the outfield. Victorino, 31, is batting .261 with nine homers, 24 steals and 40 RBI in 101 games this season with the Phillies. The switch-hitter is hitting .316 against left-handed pitching this season and is swinging a hot bat of late, having hit safely in five consecutive games and nine of his last 10 at a .378 clip (14-for-37) since July 18.

It has been talked about that the Christmas Fantasy Parade may move to Disney's California Adventure Park this Holiday season. This would be a huge mistake. For those of you who have seen this wonderful parade, you should know it just won't look the same in California Adventure. This parade has proven that it can attract big crowds and entertain them. No way does California Adventure have enough people to justify having a huge parade in an empty theme park.
Please sign out petition to keep the Christmas Magic at Disneyland!
It will be sent to the Disneyland Resort on September 1st, so sign away!
If we get enough support, we just might save Christmas!

Richard Farias has jumped feet first from faculty to staff
with his new position of director of student activities in the Office of
Student Life. He is quick to say that he
is excited about his new job.
"I really wanted to try something new," he said. Now his office is located on the second floor of the Loftin Student Center.
While he loved being part of the English Department, he has
worked with Student Life in various capacities since starting at San Antonio
College in 2005. He has been chair of
the Hispanic Heritage Month committee, an advisor to GALA and the Cheshire
Cheese Club and instrumental in National Coming Out Week activities.
"In a way I was surprised that I got the job. My background
may not be strictly in the field of Student Activities, but I will get
on-the-job training," Farias said. He said
that he is glad for the opportunity to catch up with the Student Life learning
curve during the summer months.
A native of San Antonio, Farias received his bachelor's
degree in English and Philosophy from the University of the Incarnate Word and
a master's in English from UT-San Antonio. He spent his freshman year at
UT-Austin but says it was too big and chose to come home and attend UIW.
"I feel that I can relate to San Antonio kids coming to
SAC," he said. He has an older brother, Thomas Farias, who teaches Spanish at
Farias, who turns 35 in June, says he enjoys hiking and
cultural events. He is a board member of Equality Texas and was recently named
to the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce's Alex Briseño Leadership Development
More faculty involvement is one of Farias' goals for the
campus, along with increase in community involvement. "We are in the middle of
San Antonio (and) there has got to be ways to connect with the community around
"My favorite activities that go on here on campus are the
different cultural and heritage celebrations.
They remind us of where we come from and who we are.
I really love the big events
that just kind of explode on the campus mall."
Farias said he is looking forward to having students living
on campus with the opening of the Tobin Lofts @ San Antonio College. He sees a need for more evening and possibly
weekend activities on campus because of the built-in audience at Tobin Lofts. In addition he is in talks with Kinesiology to
build up the sports programs offered through Student Life.
"Ultimately, we are here for the students. We are
responsible for the students' money and we want student input on how this money
is spent," he said.
"I'm looking forward to working with an amazing staff – they are very dedicated and work very hard to really make the students lives better
here on campus."
We wrapped up the Farias interview with questions like those posed by Vanity Fair magazine
(which are, in turn, taken from the Proust questionnaire):
What's your idea of
perfect happiness?
Wanting to do the
things you do because of their intrinsic value. Not because you have to, but
because you want to.
What characteristic
you most admire in others?
What characteristic
you most abhor in others?
Who is the person (living
or dead) you most admire?
Abraham Lincoln.
If you had a
superhero power, what would it be?
Who is your favorite
character from literature?
Gandalf, from "Lord of the Rings"

Votto 0-3 with 2 K and an E. He seems to have blended right in with the Bats, who lost 2-0. Gustafson and Christiani pitched well.
Hamilton's 1-2 with a 2B and was picked off second.
Obispo: 4 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K. ERA 2.23.
Pensacola trails 1-0 after five.
Dayton did some hitting today (16) in a 7-3 win. Jefry Siera had three, Buckley two with a HR (14).
The increasingly impressive Ismael Guillon: 7 IP, 6 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 9 K. ERA 2.55. Muhammad and Kemp finished.
Something I never seen at a Minor League game and I been to about 100 since 2004:
With only one out, Bryson Smith catches a fly ball thinking its two outs. He then throws the ball to a family in the stands. The baserunner advances all the way to third and the players are laughing.
You could tell these players minds are elsewhere today.
Jeff Larish of the Indianapolis Milk Sippers was attempting to play all 9 positions today but rain ended that experiment. When Larish went into to pitch, the Indianapolis pitcher played second. He was a one-man right side of the diamond. Here is a picture of Jose Diaz and, trust me, nothing got through the right side of the diamond while he manning second base.
Mark Serrano relieved Obispo and the floodgates opened. Serrano gave up six runs in his three innings of work. Pensacola falls 8-1. Blue Fish had seven hits. Two by Hamilton, two by Fellhauer (.314) and three by Brodie Greene.
Taylor Wrenn, recently called up from Billings, was 2 for 5 today.
Juan Duran started the game in left field and batting first. He played the top half of the first in left. Struck out in the bottom half of the first. In the top half of the second he went to center and Theo Bowe went to left. In the top of the third Muller replaced Duran and Bowe went back to center. Not even guess as to why that happened. Tim Crabbe pitched a solid five. 5IP 4H 1ER 1BB 5K. McMyne and Brackman came on and worked three scoreless innings in relief. The ninth got a bit dicey. Carlos Contreras gave up three runs and Michael Dennhardt came on to register the final out. Selsky (.348), Mattair and D'Anna all went deep. Muller, Mattair and D'Anna had multiple hits. Bakersfield wins 7-4.
Last day of the year (sans playoffs which start Saturday for the Blaze).... maybe they let the players put together the line up?
Missoula's up 5-0, so Billings will likely have to win to remain in first place. After four, it's 2-2. Amaral and Maddox have a couple safeties. Langfield has been replaced by Amezcua.
Winker singled in one and Jon Matthews doubled in two to put Billings up 5-2 in the ninth.
Amezcua in relief: 4 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 7 K.
Jesus Adames closed it out for Billings, which remains in position for a playoff berth.

Ultraseven (ウルトラセブン Urutora Sebun?) is the third entry in the Ultra-Series, airing in Japan in 1967. Created by Eiji Tsuburaya, this follow up to Ultraman went on to become one of Japan's greatest fantasy TV series, with average ratings of over 36%.. Such is his popularity that Ultra Seven (or simply 'Seven') has appeared or at least made cameos in nearly every Ultra Series following his own and has had far more exposure than even the original Ultraman (though the original Ultraman is without a doubt the face of the Ultras). It later returned for another season, in 1994 on to 2002, known as Heisei Ultraseven.
Ultraseven is sometimes incorrectly called "Ultraman Seven" by many sources outside Japan (or in the case of KHON/Honolulu, Hawaii, Ultra 7, as listed in TV Guide when it ran in 1975). Both the series and its hero can also be called Ultra Seven (with a space).
The 1967 TV seriesEditUltraseven, produced by Tsuburaya Productions, aired on Tokyo Broadcasting System from October 1, 1967 to September 8, 1968. In the not-too-distant future, the Earth finds itself constantly under attack from extraterrestrial threats. To combat them, the Terrestrial Defense Force establishes the Ultra Guard (ウルトラ警備隊 Urutora keibi-tai?), a team of six elite members who utilize high-tech vehicles and weaponry. Joining their fight is the mysterious Dan Moroboshi who is secretly an alien from the Land of Light in Nebula M-78, Ultraseven.
Characters The Ultra Garrison (ウルトラ警備隊?)Edit
- Commander Kaoru Kiriyama is the captain of the Ultra Garrison. A no-nonsense but kind leader. He is from Tokyo.
- Actor: Shōji Nakayama
- Shigeru Furuhashi is a rotund, strong, trigger-happy member of the Ultra Garrison. Many years later, he would find himself a high-ranking TDF commander and one of Ultra Seven's few allies. He is from Hokkaido.
- Actor: Sandayū Dokumamushi, or Iyoshi Ishii, who had previously been Science Patrolman Daisuke Arashi in Ultraman
- Anne Yuri is the only female member of the Ultra Garrison, and also the youngest. She is the team's communications operator and nurse, but is still effective in action. Has feelings for fellow member Dan Moroboshi. She is also from Tokyo.
- Actor: Yuriko Hishimi
- Soga is Ultra Garrison's expert marksman. He is easy-going, but fierce in battle. He is a friend of Dan Moroboshi. He is from Southern Kyushu.
- Actor: Shinsuke Achiha
- Amagi is the twitchy stragegist. He is from Nagoya.
- Actor: Bin "Satoshi" Furuya, previously the suit actor of Ultraman
- Dan Moroboshi/Ultraseven (Agent 340), the title character, is from the Land of Light in the Nebula M-78, the same planet as Ultraman. Originally sent to map the Milky Way, he visits Earth and it captivates him. On his first visit he saves the life of a young mountain climber named Jiro Satsuma, who nearly falls to his death while saving a fellow climber. Instead of merging with him, as Ultraman did with SSSP member Shin Hayata, Seven morphs himself into a duplicate of the unconscious Jiro. However, he names himself Dan Moroboshi to avoid confusion. A mysterious but friendly young man, Dan joins the Ultra Guard as its sixth member. Unknown to them or anyone else, he saves the day from alien invasions as Agent 340, christened by the Garrison as its "honorary 7th member," Ultra Seven.

TNT EpisodesEdit
In 1985, Turner Program Services commissioned Cinar to dub all 49 episodes for run in syndication. [1] The Cinar produced episodes featured new opening and closing credits, eyecatches, and even new episode names. After failing to sell it to local and national stations, Turner put the tapes back into their vaults until 1994, when Ultra Seven was selected for broadcast on the Toons 'Till Noon and MonsterVision blocks on TNT. The Toons 'Till Noon broadcasts received substantially heavy editing to make them suitable for the time slot, while the MonsterVision broadcasts were left completely uncut. Episodes 5-7 were missing, but instead of paying Cinar for the missing episodes, they aired all the tapes they had already. When the contract expired between Tsuburaya, Cinar, and Turner, all materials (film, tapes, audio masters) reverted to, and were collected by Tsuburaya.

Georgia Tops the First RPI Release of the 2014 Division I Softball Season
LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The initial Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) of the 2014 Division I softball season has been released by the NCAA with the Georgia Bulldogs holding down the top position.
The NCAA develops the RPI to provide its softball selection committee with a resource to utilize when selecting and seeding the annual NCAA Tournament field of 64. The RPI will now be released each week for the remainder of the regular season.
To view the complete NCAA Division I RPI rankings, please click HERE.
Despite rating just 13th in the March 25 release of the USA Today/NFCA Division I softball poll, the Bulldogs sit at No. 1 followed by fellow Southeastern Conference teams Alabama and Florida in second and third, respectively. Florida State of the Atlantic Coast Conference rates No. 4, while Michigan of the Big Ten Conference holds down the fifth spot.
Overall, the SEC leads the way with three of the top 10 teams in the initial RPI and nine of the top 25. The Pacific-12 Conference is next with five inclusions, while the Big Ten has four, the Big 12 Conference and the Sun Belt Conference possess two each and the ACC, the Atlantic Sun Conference and Conference USA each own a single listed squad.
When determining each team's RPI, the following basic formula is utilized:
25% -- Winning Percentage
50% -- Opponents' Winning Percentage
25% -- Opponents' Opponents Winning Percentage
Although the NCAA publishes this basic formula, the organization doesn't release the mathematical bonus and penalty calculations (such as a bonus for a win against a top-25 team).

Sinton priest continues to improve
Varghese, stabbed Friday, taken off breathing tube
CORPUS CHRISTI - Diocese of Corpus Christi officials said the health of a priest stabbed in Sinton last week has continued to improve and he no longer relies on a breathing tube.
Father Shaji Varghese was attacked by a parishioner after Friday morning Mass at the side doorway of Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church, police said.
Varghese's condition was upgraded to stable condition on Sunday, the same day his breathing tube was removed, said Marty Wind, spokesman for the Diocese of Corpus Christi.
The 42-year-old priest remained in stable condition on Monday in the Intensive Care Unit at Christus Spohn Hospital Memorial. But diocesan clergy, who have been at his bedside, anticipate he may be moved to a private room out of that unit as soon as Tuesday or Wednesday, Wind added.
David Rodriguez, 36, the man accused in the stabbing, remained Monday in San Patricio County Jail with $350,000 in bonds. He is being held on suspicion of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and tampering with evidence, jail officials said.
Bishop Edmond Carmody on Sunday rededicated the church to God, a ceremony done anytime blood is spilled in a holy place.
Father Antony Varghese, (no relation), who had been in-residence at Corpus Christi Cathedral, will minister in the Sinton parish until Shaji Varghese recovers from his injuries.

It's rare to see a new spin on an overused game formula. What I'm personally used to seeing is a game suddenly rising in popularity, and then everyone releasing what is pretty much a re-skinned version of it. Gameloft's Rival Knights is the exception I've been looking for. It's a jousting game that plays very similarly to drag-racing games such as CSR Racing, but adding more than enough changes to make the game feel new and fresh.
Metal Slug 3 is a 16-bit blast from the past that is available from both Google Play for $3.99 as well as on Humble Bundle 10 (the most recent as of this writing). In this side scrolling shooter, it's the player's job to keep the world from the oppression of an invading force fashioned after the Nazis, among others.
Shivah. Noun, Judaism. A period of seven days' formal mourning for the dead, beginning immediately after the funeral. It also is the name of a point and click murder mystery available on Google Play for $1.99. Originally, the game designed for desktops in 2006, and it is currently available to those of us on Android.
Flashout 2 is a fast paced racing game, which is set in the future and you use anti-gravity ships to win money and fame. Throughout playing this game I couldn't help but liken it to F-Zero or Extreme G. It won't pass for either of those, but it's definitely in the same category. With that frame of reference in place, there's a lot to like about this game.
Dark Lands is a hybrid game containing elements of an endless runner and an action-adventure game, complete with endless running evasion tactics and a full combat system for dealing with those pesky enemies blocking the player's way. Released earlier this May, Bulkypix's Dark Lands packs a long playing experience into 2 content-filled game modes. Without question, its crossbreed characteristics will turn some heads but how does this marriage of an action-adventure x endless runner x platformer really play out?
Trials Fusion is one my favorite games on the PS4; naturally I was delighted when a mobile version launched on android a few days ago. The game itself is the classic gravity/rag-doll physics game that many people will have played in different iterations. You use the on screen controls to accelerate or break, lean forward or backwards. That's it. Nothing fancy going on here, and it works well. The buttons look aesthetically pleasing too, something a lot of games of the genre get wrong.
After a huge delay for Android devices, we have TellTale's The Walking Dead season 1 on Google Play for all devices. Was the delay worth it though? Let's have a look.
Archangel is a dungeon crawler from Unity Games and Black Tower Studios where you play as the eponymous archangel who's been commissioned by Heaven to defeat the forces of evil on their turf. You'll traverse a undefined nether realm that's spread out over thirty levels, use gestures for combat, and upgrade your character with powers and loot that you find along the way or purchase. Outside of that premise, there isn't much for a story along the way save for some of the levels having a brief introductory cut scene showing what it looks like, and a handful of subtitles. In short, you just go out and slay your enemies as the emphasis in Archangel is on the action. And just like this game features a conflict between good and bad, there's also good and bad within the design of the game itself.
Do you find it easier to motivate yourself in the fantastic world of an RPG than in real life? If so, look no further; Habit RPG turns your task manager into a role playing game complete with random item drops, a class system, quests, pets, mounts, equipment, and more.
Value is a tricky thing when it comes to video games. For movies, books, music, and other forms of media, the price is fairly simple to understand. While the value of those things have undoubtedly changed over the years, what they provide is fairly consistent. A movie is an hour and a half to three hours. A Song is three to six minutes. A book is as long as it is thick. But video games, are different, video games aren't so easy to define.
Endless running games, much like the genre itself, seem to continue being made with no end in sight. While there has been a definite upsurge in the genre over the last couple of years, with titles such as Temple Run and Subway Surfers blazing the trail, many of the games come across as mere clones. Often utilizing similar mechanics and an aggressive cash shop, the genre seemed as if the only place it was running - was the ground. Enter Wind Runner, a side scrolling endless runner with a pretty face, made by WeMade Entertainment.

Efraim Karsh
|Efraim Karsh
אפרים קארש
|Efraim Karsh
1953 (age 61–62)
|Israeli, British
|Known for
Efraim Karsh (Hebrew: אפרים קארש; born 1953) is founding director and emeritus professor of Middle East and Mediterranean Studies[1] at King's College London. Since 2013, he serves as professor of Political Studies at Bar-Ilan University (where he is also a senior research associate at the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies).[2] Furthermore, he is a principal research fellow (and former director) of the Middle East Forum,[3] a Philadelphia-based think tank. He is regarded as a vocal critic of the New Historians, a group of Israeli scholars who have questioned the conventional history of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Born, and raised in Israel, to Jewish immigrants to Palestine under the British Mandate, Karsh graduated in Arabic and Modern Middle East History from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and obtained an MA and PhD in International Relations from Tel Aviv University. After acquiring his first academic degree in modern Middle Eastern history, he was a research analyst for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), where he attained the rank of major.
Academic and media career[edit]
He has held various academic posts at Harvard and Columbia universities, the Sorbonne, the London School of Economics, Helsinki University, the International Institute for Strategic Studies in London, the Kennan Institute for Advanced Russian Studies in Washington D.C., and the Jaffee Center for Strategic Studies at Tel Aviv University. In 1989 he joined King's College London, where he established the Middle East and Mediterranean Studies Program, directing it for sixteen years. He has published extensively on Middle Eastern affairs, Soviet foreign policy, and European neutrality, and is a founding editor of the scholarly journal Israel Affairs and editor of the Middle East Quarterly. He is a regular media commentator, has appeared on all the main radio and television networks in the United Kingdom and the United States, and has contributed articles to leading newspapers, including The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times,The Wall Street Journal, The Times (London) and The Daily Telegraph.[4]
In a 2011 editorial in Haaretz, Karsh articulated his belief that "the tragedy befalling the Palestinian Arabs in 1948 was exclusively of their own making". Karsh argued that many Palestinians fled their homes as the result of pressure from local Arab leaders "and/or the Arab Liberation Army that had entered Palestine prior to the end of the Mandate, whether out of military considerations or in order to prevent them from becoming citizens of the prospective Jewish state." He stated that there is an "overwhelming and incontrovertible body of evidence" to support his position including "intelligence briefs, captured Arab documents, press reports, personal testimonies and memoirs..."[5] Karsh claims that "the deliberate depopulation of Arab villages and their transformation into military strongholds" began in December 1947.[5]
Praise and criticism[edit]
Howard Sachar sees Karsh as the "preeminent scholar-spokesman of the Revisionist (politically-rightist) Movement in Zionism."[6] Benny Morris called Karsh's article "a mélange of distortions, half-truths, and plain lies that vividly demonstrates his profound ignorance of both the source material (...) and the history of the Zionist-Arab conflict."[7] Reviewing Fabricating Israeli History, Morris said that Karsh belabors minor points while ignoring the main pieces of evidence.[8]
The political scientist Ian Lustick said Karsh's writing in Fabricating Israeli History was malevolent and his analysis, erratic and sloppy.[9][10]
Yezid Sayigh, Professor of Middle East Studies, wrote that "[Karsh] is simply not what he makes himself out to be, a trained historian (nor political/social scientist)."[11] Karsh accused Sayigh of a "misleading misrepresentation of my scholarly background" and retorted that Sayigh's remarks were "not a scholarly debate on facts and theses but a character assassination couched in high pseudo-academic rhetoric".[11]
Author David Rodman opined that "Karsh stitches together a seemingly irrefutable case for the validity of the traditionalist narrative, possibly bringing to an end once and for all the New Historian phenomenon as a sustainable historiographical project."[12]
Empires of the Sand[edit]
Anthony B. Toth published a review of Karsh's Empires of the Sand in the Journal of Palestine Studies. Toth wrote: "This is a polemical book whose authors have extended the intemperate and unbalanced rhetoric customarily employed by dogmatic partisans of the Arab Israeli conflict to the normally sedate and measured arena of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Ottoman history. The book relies mainly on Western published sources and official British documents. But their use of even these sources is limited, since they actually ignore most of nineteenth-century history. Instead, the authors emphasize those episodes they feel support their interpretations.[13]
Richard Bernstein characterized it as "a readable, scholarly re-examination of a long and complicated Middle Eastern history [...] The main purpose of this very detailed and broad-shouldered history is to revise many of the standard interpretations that have been given to Middle Eastern history over the last two centuries. Most generally the Karshes dispute the idea that the main events and developments in the region stem from the machinations of the great powers, especially Britain and France. The 'main impetus behind regional developments,' they write, was 'the local actors' [...] The authors write clearly and authoritatively and with great geographical sweep. Those who do not know much of these events will learn a great deal from this book, while specialists with views differing from the Karshes' will face a robust challenge to their interpretations.[14]
Richard Bulliet, Professor of History at the Middle East Institute of Columbia University, wrote that Empires of the Sand is "a tendentious and unreliable piece of scholarship that should have been vetted more thoroughly by the publisher" and asserts that the authors failed to "contribute a dimension of sense and scholarship that raises the debate[s in question] to a higher level."[15] Karsh in response wondered "what credential did Bulliet possess, that a leading journal in the field should ask him to review our book? He is a medievalist who has done no research or writing on the subject. But in his spare time, he propagates the view of the Middle East and its nations as hapless victims of Western imperialism".
Response from Karsh[edit]
Karsh states that his book "has incurred the ire of the Arabist establishment" and that "scathing indictments have been made, on the basis of hearsay, without writers taking the trouble to read the book. A leading academic has even urged fellow academics to place negative reviews on the website of a major Internet bookstore, so as to warn potential readers of our book."[11]
Karsh argues that "[the]conventional view – absolving Middle Easterners and blaming the West – is academically unsound and morally reprehensible. It is academically unsound because the facts tell an altogether different story of modern Middle Eastern history, one that has consistently been suppressed because of its incongruity with the politically correct dogmas of the Arabist establishment. And it is morally reprehensible because denying the responsibility of individuals and societies for their actions is patronizing and in the worst tradition of the 'white man's burden' approach, which has dismissed regional players as half-witted creatures, too dim to be accountable for their own fate... Little wonder therefore that Empires of the Sand was more favorably received by Middle Eastern intellectuals, fed up with being talked down to and open to real revisionism of their region's history after suffering decades of condescension from their paternalistic champions in the West."[11]
Islamic Imperialism[edit]

In his review of Islamic Imperialism', Amir Taheri praised Karsh: "Anyone interested in the debate about the place of Islam in the modern world should read this book...Karsh offers a new approach. He rejects the condescending approach of the apologists and the hateful passion of the Islamophobes. Instead he presents Islam as a rival for Western civilisation in what is, after all, a contest for shaping of mankind. Karsh does not hide whose side he is on in this contest. Muslim readers would respect him because, while he designates Islam as an adversary, he respects them."
But Taheri does criticize Karsh's take on Islamic philosophy: "[Karsh] speaks of 'Islam's wholesale incorporation of Hellenistic culture and science', something that did not happen, and sees it as the genesis of Islamic politics and jurisprudence. He also states that Islam was attractive to people it conquered because in it 'ethnic and tribal origins counted for nothing'. But three of the Prophet's immediate successors were his fathers-in-law while the fourth was his son-in-law."[16]
Robert Fulford said of Islamic Imperialism: "Only a shrewd and talented revisionist, a professor with curiosity and nerve, could take on the clichés of Middle East scholarship and insist that they be reconsidered. That describes Efraim Karsh, a much-published and much-admired professor at the University of London. His new book deserves serious consideration by anyone who cares about this debate."[17]
Fulford also notes Karsh's criticism of Bernard Lewis' What Went Wrong? (2002) in the book: "Bernard Lewis...misses the point, Karsh implies. The warlike stance of Islamists is not a riposte to Western imperialism. It's indigenous, deeply rooted in Muslim culture, and the most significant product of the Islamic belief that politics and religion are one. Karsh finds, in Islamic writing and practice, a profound impulse to expand Muslim power and eventually rule all countries."[17]

Juan Martin del Potro reached the Dubai Championships semifinals for a second straight year when he dispatched German qualifier Daniel Brands 6-4, 6-2 on Thursday. Del Potro managed to neutralize the big-serving Brands and offered up some of his own firepower, hitting seven aces including six in the first set. He also said his right wrist, which he injured in 2010, was not bothering him as much as it did earlier in the tournament and that he now ''could play 100 percent.'' The first set was tight as both players held serve through the first nine games until mistakes from the 97th-ranked German allowed Del Potro to break him and win the set. The second was much easier, as Del Potro broke Brands twice.

I am new to the WordPress and I have (hopefully) simple problem. I have a gallery with a few pictures (about 10). I also have 3 different pages, each of them has different template (gallery 2 columns, gallery 3 columns and gallery 4 columns).
Right now, all three pages show same pictures. How do I choose which picture is to be displayed on specific page? Let's say I want to display pictures 1-4 on page 1 (gallery 2 columns), pictures 5-7 on page 2 (gallery 3 columns), and pictures 8-10 on page 3 (gallery 4 columns). How do I do that? Thanks!

1 Me: Oh man...
2 Me: I hate it when webcomics have an immense amount of text that you feel obligated to plough through in order to understand what's going on. Sometimes they refer obliquely to past events that you have to be fully immersed in the comic's backstory and history to even follow, which makes you feel like they should have explanatory footnotes*. It makes you wonder sometimes if the author realises that comics are primarily a visual medium, and shouldn't rely on overly verbose exposition of what characters are feeling or have them explain past events to other characters. And once you're about halfway through the mountain of dialogue and you realise that it doesn't really say anything particularly interesting after all, you end up feeling as though you have to continue because you've made it this far. So you keep on reading, because you've already invested this much effort into it, but it doesn't get any better; if anything it gets even more turgid and unbelievably laborious. It's at about this point that you seriously start to wonder if it's really worth continuing, and you question whether you might be better off spending your time painting the house instead, since it would probably take less time and be more rewarding. You even wonder if you should keep this comic on your reading list at all, since this particular strip just continues to defy your expectation of what a webcomic should be like, with its execrable overburdening of the dialogue at the expense of the artwork, and if a comic isn't about the artwork then does it really deserve to be called a comic at all? But then you approach the end and your heart lifts, because you start to feel that you've endured the pain, that whatever this author has in mind, it must really have required this much detailed explication to set up and give all the vital information, and that finally it will all pay off with a fantastic joke... *If I ever made a comic, it wouldn't have footnotes.
3 Me: And there's no punchline.

Billet FCR Velocity Stacks
View Single Post
Andrew to most
Joined: Jun 2004
Location: Southern Tip of Africa
Oddometer: 1,326
Some feedback.
Beautiful engineering!
I have a 990 Super Duke engine (with an adventure gearbox) in a 2004 adventure chassis. I am using the 950 headers with a free flowing aftermarket exhaust.
I have spent 2 sessions on a dyno with a very experienced operator to get to where I am now.
Used to have a 150mm unifilters with foam skins setup on the OEM FCR carb. I had 142 140 main jets, 52 pilot jets in it. This was setup by the same dyno guy.
When the velocity stacks arrived, I mounted them with 155 mains that were supplied. It was way too rich. I went back to the 142 140 with the needles on the 4th clip from the bottom and then sent the bike off to the dyno.
What I came back with and am at the moment;
140 front 138 rear main jets
Needles second clip from bottom
50 pilot jets
198 air jets
2 ½ turns out on the air screw bleed
1 ½ turns out on the fuel screw bleed.
I have left the outer foam socks on until my filter skins arrive. (we dyno'd the filters with the foam on and off – it made negligible difference to the AFR's)
The billet throttle position sensor works very well and looks factory;
Starts instantly, even when cold. Seldom have to re-thumb the starter button. Very torquey and snappy. Angry even. With my 95kg's and 25 litres on board it was roll on wheelies in 2nd. Precise throttling. Some patience is needed balancing the carbs both at idle with the adjusters and at 5k revs with the cables. Slow technical riding is brilliant, it will tractor through at low revs and is very hard to stall. This is very cool as I am short and having to dab from a stall always means a trip to the ground. The rear tire is not very happy.
My dyno guy has been a bit slack (too busy) in sending me the dyno charts, but will post them up when I get them.
We are not sure why there is such a discrepancy between the USA main jet experience and my South African one. I am the only one I am aware of that has these stacks here so can't explain why. Unless you have a dyno with exhaust gas analyser, or, you have huge experience and skill in tuning, then these stacks are maybe not plug and play. In anycase, I can't imagine anyone would buy these carbs and not expect to have to go visit a dyno. Not doing so, in my opinion would be foolhardy.
It has been a long road with these carbs and I am done fiddling now… I think… I spied a 2 wheel drive project somewhere?
I often wonder where that road goes? And that, has usually made all the difference.
Appologies to Mr Frost

Antibiotics are
used to treat
toxic shock syndrome. The sooner antibiotics are
started, the less likely the possibility of serious complications. Antibiotics
are given as long as needed, which depends on the strep or staph bacteria identified and the severity of symptoms.
Antibiotics may also help prevent a repeat episode of toxic shock
Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) can
be used when toxic shock syndrome is severe or does not improve with
antibiotics. Intravenous immunoglobulin works differently than antibiotics. It
antibodies that can help the body remove the specific
toxins causing TSS. But experts have not determined if IVIG is effective for
treating TSS.
Your doctor may give you medicines to help with your
blood pressure and to help your organs work better.
With prompt
treatment and no major complications, most people recover completely in 1 to 2

Canon 17-40 mm L F4.0 lens

Contributing Member • Posts: 893
DXO claims to 'correct' lens defects, including lack of corner sharpness, the latter presumably by applying local sharpening. I use it quite a lot & it seems really good.
It is fairly intuitive to use & I seem to recall you can download a trial version.
However, I've not done any detailed testing - does anyone know of any reliable comparative reviews?

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Jartran Radd worked as a scientist. He married a woman named Elmar and they had a son together. Jartran was a workoholic and with the simplistic lifestyle on Zenn-La and lack of a husband, Elmar committed suicide.He named his son Norrin Radd after Norrin Konn. Norrin Konn was a leader in a civil war on Zenn-La. He was called the Father of Zenn-La. He nurtured his son to think differently and to follow in his footsteps. He always told Norrin that he would be a great man someday. Jartran believed their computerized world had taken away the spirit of the Zenn-Lavians and their once proud race has wasted away. He insisted that his son not grow up to be like the rest of the population. He always reminded Norrin that greatness awaited him. But even though Norrin received his father's qualities he also gained his flaws. Jartran had a mistress after Elmar's death and they produced a son out of wedlock named Fennan Radd. This was kept hidden from Norrin.Jartran received the Delta Award for inventing the Psi-Sonic Transmitter, a breakthrough in psycho-recreational arts. He did not approve of such devices but can only get funding for such things. He is eventually accused of idea theft and Norrin learns of it. Jartran claimed that he had forgot to give the other inventor his credit. Disgusted, Norrin walks away.This event caused Jartran to commit suicide by shooting himself in the head. This caused Norrin much guilt, believing it were his fault that this happened. He bottled it up for centuries. Only after a trip with Virtual Reality did Jartran and Norrin make amends with one another.He met his father's spirit again during the Infinity Crusade. The Surfer was near death and found himself at a train station on Zenn-La that would take him to the land of the dead. While Elmar told the Surfer it was not his time, Jartran still seemed to revel in his own self hatred, and told him that life is meaningless and he should just end it. The Surfer was able to convince him otherwise and they once again make amends with each other.It was later known that Mephisto was in possession of Jartran and Elmar's souls because of their method of death. The Surfer was able to fight and rescue his parent's souls and his own. Jartrans spirit left the Surfer to his loneliness. He returned to Jartran's grave on Zenn-La and lit a eternal flame for his parents. They were now free of their sins but at a deep cost to the Surfer.

Montreal pair Jasamine White-Gluz and Laura Lloyd used to be all about intense, roaring layers of shoegaze feedback, but their return sees them adding layers of keyboards and drum programming to those hazy guitars. The result is calmer and warmer, like taking a hot bath on a sun-kissed beach in heaven.

Austin, T; Sun, S; Hassan, T; Kalra, D; (2013) Evaluation of ISO EN 13606 as a result of its implementation in XML. Health Informatics J , 19 (4) pp. 264-280. 10.1177/1460458212473993.

The five parts of the ISO EN 13606 standard define a means by which health-care records can be exchanged between computer systems. Starting within the European standardisation process, it has now become internationally ratified in ISO. However, ISO standards do not require that a reference implementation be provided, and in order for ISO EN 13606 to deliver the expected benefits, it must be provided not as a document, but as an operational system that is not vendor specific. This article describes the evolution of an Extensible Markup Language (XML) Schema through three iterations, each of which emphasised one particular approach to delivering an executable equivalent to the printed standard. Developing these operational versions and incorporating feedback from users of these demonstrated where implementation compromises were needed and exposed defects in the standard. These are discussed herein. They may require a future technical revision to ISO EN 13606 to resolve the issues identified.

Ignoring fiance JUSTIN THEROUX's endless protests, JENNIFER ANISTON dragged him kicking and screaming to pal EMILY BLUNT's baby shower, even though he'd told her over and over that: "It's not my scene! A baby shower's for women, not guys! I'm not into playing all those silly baby shower games. You go and enjoy yourself – but I'm NOT going."
Said a Jennifer pal: "She refused to give up, then called Emily and asked if other guys would be there. When Emily confirmed there would be, Jennifer put on her best pouty face and begged Justin to go.
"He kept resisting, but finally folded after 24 hours of the old cold-shoulder treatment – but he told her, NEVER again!"
(Now that's how to lure an already antsy guy to the altar, ladies…right, Jen?)
