People near Iceland volcano threatened by ash and floods
Reykjavik: Around 800 people living near
an Icelandic volcano spewing clouds of ash across Europe
returned to their homes after fleeing to escape flash floods
from a melting glacier atop the crater, authorities said
on Friday.
For the second time in two days residents quit their
homes briefly yesterday evening to avoid floodwater from the
melting Eyjafjallajokull glacier that covers the erupting
volcano, authorities said, adding they were being cautioned
to wear masks and goggles due to health risks from the ash.
"Local residents, with the exception of 20 farms, were
able to return to their homes when it became clear that flood
barriers had held back the flood water," the Civil Emergency
Administration said in a statement.
"There was no need for further evacuations during the
night despite two additional flash floods ... The flooding did
however cause widespread damage," it added.
Local Hvolsvollur police chief Kjartan Thorkelsson
told agency the situation was being closely monitored in case a
new evacuation was needed.
"If we see the water level going up we can again move
people quickly," he said.
University of Iceland geophysicist Pall Einarsson
predicted that the danger of flash flooding had yet to
"We can expect flood waves to come down from the
volcano without too much notice, and the people have to adjust
to that fact," he told agency.
People and animals had escaped harm so far in the
flooded rural area, some 125 kilometres east of Reykjavik, but
some farmland had been ruined, Thorkelsson said.
The main problem now was the massive clouds of ash
still spewing from the volcano, he said.

CCTV After Racial Abuse Incident In Borehamwood
Police issue CCTV of a man in connection with a racially aggravated public order offence which occurred in Borehamwood.
Police were called to Croxley Moor Common after a young bullock charged towards joggers and dogwalkers this morning.
Dog-walkers and joggers in Watford faced an unusual obstacle on between Watford and Rickmansworth this morning - a charging bull!
Police first received calls from the public at 923am today (Weds 31st Oct), reporting a loose bullock running along the cycle-path on the old railway line near Moor Park station.
Local resident Neal Emery spoke to Heart, after almost jogging straight into the young animal: "I didn't really have time to think - I just ducked one way - and it turned to go towards me so I jumped the otherway and I just managed to get away.
It then ran off, I think it was pretty scared. It was only afterwards I thought that could have been pretty bad."
Neal added: "There were a couple of women hiding in the bushes with their dogs - just waiting for it to go away. A little later along the path I saw some police who were trying to round it up, but it kept charging them and then running away."
Hertfordshire Police say the animal was rounded up and returned to nearby fields, shortly after.
Three Rivers Council say they own the land at Croxley Common Moor, but lease the land to the farmer, and it's his responsibility to keep animals penned in.

Richard Stapler with the California Natural Resources Agency says the recent stormy weather just wasn't enough.
"It has barely made a dent in what California requires for any given year," says Stapler. "We've had two previous very dry years. This year we're in record territory as far as lack of precipitation."
Stapler says the latest snowpack measurements are at just 20-percent of normal for this time of year.
Drought-stricken farmers will get state and federal help to drill groundwater wells.
The state will also temporarily order northern reservoirs to preserve more water than usual. That would allow fresh water to continue through the San Francisco Bay Delta. People, fish and animals depend on that water.

Gumbo Limbo is a nature center located in Boca Raton Florida. They single handedly monitor more than 600 nests a year within a five mile span of our beaches. Currently they rescue and release more than 6,000 stranded hatchlings each nesting season. They also rehabilitate turtles that have been injured and require medical attention. Their goal is to eventually release them back into the wild.
As a Loc-all good effort Lisa and I made a donation to the project and volunteered to help release some rescued hatchlings back into the ocean! Did you know that only 1,000 out of 10,000 hatchlings will survive into adulthood? This is why each hatchling is so important. As part of the release it is imperative that the hatchlings make the journey into the ocean from the shore. This is a huge factor in their development and it activates their internal compass. We monitored the release to ensure that each of the 33 turtles made it to the ocean safely. 3 of the turtles did not appear strong enough to make the journey so they were collected and will be cared for until Gumbo Limbo feels confident they can make it.
We also participated in a conservation class, which teaches you what to do if you find an injured turtle and how to keep them safe. With so many of our self storage locations near the ocean it is important to understand how to care for our beaches and be educated on how to handle a sea turtle. We can now help identify nests and decipher between the 3 different species of turtles in South Florida.
If you find a dead, sick, or injured sea turtle, please call Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's 24-hour Wildlife Alert Number at
Please be prepared to answer the following questions:
• What is the exact location of the animal?
• Is the turtle alive or dead?
• What is the approximate size of the turtle?
• Is the turtle marked with spray paint?
(This may indicate that the turtle has been previously documented.)
• What is the location of the closest access point to the turtle?
If you need to reach a wildlife rehabilitation center in South Florida, please call the South Florida Wildlife Center at 954-524-4302 or 866-SOS-WILD.

Are you fascinated in Africa?Is Africa full of adventure? Is it the scenery,people,culture or travel that draws you? Jimmy Choo Heels Do you desire adventure? Would you like to investigate your ancestors?But how do you find the best information about Africa. The best solutions involve a combination of many things: Take a class at a university;Ask Jimmy Choo Shoes your friends or neighbors . This is what you had to do in the 'olden' days: before the internet .Yet when you begin your quest at a library, public or private, you will find that much of the information on Africa is available via computer, possibly the same internet that you have at your home.There are a few kinds of web resources that you will see over and over again: the first kind is a search engine, You use them, the old standards like Yahoo Search! , Ask.com or newer ones like ChaCha or a directory of existing sites: like DMOZ, which use humans working as librarians to pour over the Jimmy Choo Red Shoes web sites, find the ones dealing with Africa and sort them for you.There are some troubles with both of these strategies: Google's ranking strategy for African sites is highly influenced by the internet business of SEO (search engine optimization) which attempts take advantage Jimmy Choo Designer of Google's methods to increase a web site's back-links and so make it look more important than it really is. This makes Gucci Quotes it harder to find the real good sources for information on Africa. SEO Snapback Hat World is big business for sites that get advertizing revenue on the web, because search engines can make or break a web site. There are ethical and unethical people useing these techniques who have not the slightest interest in Africa. In fact, any search engine using computer algorithms to analyse text can totally ignore ambiguities in language for example, searching for academia and get you tons of listings about getting training , or even worse, a rock band with the name 'The KarenMillens yellow African Professors". How many times haveyou had to dig down to the seventh page of the web search to find something really useful about Africa? More often than you wish!A directory organized by humans like DMOZ will not have that kind of lanugage problem, but the editors of those directories are volunteers, with limited time and have to obey some odd rules about what constitutes an appropriate web site: some kinds of information rich sites can't even get in. In fact, the decisions about what is good or not is under control of a very few people with over rigid rules: a junior editor often has a decision overrulled by a higher ranking editor sometimes, for the most obscure reasons. They are well meaning, but can they really speak to be knowledgeable about all they do? The websites that are accepted may have to wait for weeks to get approved . And the categories are limited, with few places to put new concepts. It takes months for a category to be approved: if at all.A surprisingly successful alternative has been the wikipedia, where everyone gets a shot at updating the information: and amazingly enough, wikipedia has a very good reputation of being accurate, precise, informative and, well, generally useful.Now, in September 2008, there is a new challenger in web site ranking directories that really does attempt to answer Snap Back Hat Store the question of which site is best, or at least as they put it: "which site has the most vava-voom!" That Gucci Quotes new site is http://vava.vu/?Tag=Africa , a web domain out of the Pacific Island nation of Vanuatu. Vava.vu will let any web site be entered to be rated by the general public and given the tag Africa. The judging is simple: a web site on Africa has a rank and a 'statistical strength' associated with it: When someone visits vava.vu, those sites with weaker strength are put side by side, and it is up to the public to vote which site of the two is more appropriate. When enough votes are cast, the visitor will see the real top ten sites about Africa : These sites are the ones that you, the public has approved. The idea is fair in that a visitor Karen Millen Black only can compare two sites at a time: one will win and one will not. A visitor can't give a yea or nay to one site by itself because that would skew the results. Some sites will consistantly prevail over other sites.So if you are interested in Africa , you can go find the answers in several areas: Locally in the library, from friends, or on the internet at your favorite search engine, a directory like DMOZ or Gucci Belts Sale wikipedia. Or with the new alternative on the block: http://vava.vu/?Tag=africa

(e) wherein an elbow means is secured to said guiding carriage and is connected to said fourth pipe section;
(f) wherein said movable carrier means is provided with support means for supporting said guiding carriage for vertical movement, said support means including linear bearings provided on two guide shafts on said movable carrier means so as to facilitate movement up or down by means defining a self-locking cable winch also provided on said movable carrier means;
(g) wherein a third swivel joint means is arranged above and between said lockable swivel joint and said second pipe section of said refueling tip to facilitate said refueling tip turning through 360�;
(h) wherein a fourth swivel joint is provided between said third and fourth pipe sections adjacent said concussion spring unit to facilitate said refueling tip being swung out of a horizontal position to at least one of a maximum high position and low position relative to a support surface for said movable carrier means, and
(i) wherein a last pipe section is connected to said elbow means through a movable scissors pipe means having three joints, which last pipe section is fixedly secured to said movable carrier means.
2. The refueling system according to claim 1, wherein said fourth swivel joint between said third and fourth pipe sections includes means for facilitating a swivelling of said first pipe section relative to said second pipe section between -10� and +70� relative to a horizontal plane, so that said high position and said low position can be reached.
3. The refueling system according to claim 2, wherein said refueling tip assumes, in said low position, elevational positions of between 0.6 and 2.2 m. for a horizontal connection and, in the high position, one of 4.7 m. for a vertical connection.
4. The refueling system according to claim 2, wherein at a height of 2.20 m. aircraft connections can be refueled.
5. The refueling system according to claim 2, wherein starting with a 0.8 m. height, tank trucks for refueling and for connection to a back-flushing pipeline at ground level can be reached.
6. A refueling system according to claim 2, wherein said guiding carriage can be stopped in every position between the attainable high and low positions by said means of said self-locking cable winch, and thus every in-between position between 2.20 and 4.70 m. for the refueling connections can be assumed.
7. The refueling system according to claim 1, wherein said two guide shafts are each oriented adjacent laterally spaced sides on said movable carrier means and are protected against dirt by bellows.
The invention relates to a refueling system and, in particular, to an aircraft refueling system.
During the refueling of vehicles, in particular aircraft, especially military aircraft, large amounts of fuel must be transferred in a very short period of time from a hydrant system or a tank truck into the tank to be filled on a vehicle or aircraft. Problematic during refueling are the last twenty to thirty meters, which are to be overcome from the refueling truck or the hydrant system to the tank to be filled.
To overcome this problem, it is known to use hoses, which have couplings at their ends, so that the refueling operation can occur directly after the connection to the fill opening of the respective tank. Hoses having a steel or Perlon insert are used, which as a rule have nominal widths of 21/2 to a maximum of 3". However, handling of these hoses becomes more difficult and complicated with increasing nominal widths and longer hoses. With lengths of over 20 m., one is therefore forced to utilize hoses with smaller diameters, since these would otherwise hardly be manageable due to their heavy weight, because the hoses must be pulled or carried. A transport of the hoses from ony hydrant connection to the next one is as a rule hardly possible in the unrolled state, because the hoses must then be pulled over the ground, which, however, does not only require a high amount of force, but also significantly reduces the lifetime of the hoses because of the high friction with the ground.
It the hoses are stored in refueling shafts, they are exposed to additional wear, because they must be pulled over the edge of the shaft when they are being pulled out. Aside from these mechanical damages, the hoses also are exposed to a relatively great alteration process, so that these for safety reasons alone must be replaced periodically after a certain duration of use.
A further, by all means significant disadvantage in the use of hoses is that their use for defueling is very limited and that they can only be used in expensive special designs. Moreover, the hoses can be emptied only through complicated lifting. In particular, it has proven to be disadvantageous to connect the hoses to the aircraft refueling coupling due to the difficulty of handling a heavy weight and the tension of the hoses and, on the other hand, to expose the refueling coupling to a high moment through the hoses, which can result in damage.
Furthermore, pressure reliefs in hoses can be realized only with great difficulty. However, pressure reliefs are needed, since the high expansion coefficient of aircraft fuel causes a large volume increase due to the thermal effect. The thus caused pressure increase stretches the hoses, so that they can no longer be bent. Whereas dropping temperatures create an under pressure in the hoses, so that they can collapse and their reinforcements can break.
Furthermore hydrant vehicles with refueling armatures are known, which can be connected through hoses both to the hydrant and also the refueling coupling of the aircraft. The disadvantage of this hydrant vehicle consists in it, on the one hand, needing the hoses with the aforementioned disadvantages and, on the other hand, needing a separate energy source for winding up the hoses and to also increase the pressure in hose lines having a small cross section.
The above-disclosed disadvantages in using hoses for refueling show that, aside from the difficulties in handling and from the high wear which is to be expected, the refueling duration can hardly be further increased by the increase of the nominal widths of the hose, if one considers the disadvantage in the handling created by the increase of the nominal widths. Hoses represent, because of these susceptibilities and their sensitivity of heat, a high safety risk, in particular during use near running turbines and motors, as this is the case during the quick refueling of fighter aircraft. The described disadvantages require at the same time an intensive servicing and testing operation, which must occur prior to and after each refueling operation.
Therefore, the basic purpose of the invention is to provide a refueling system of the above-mentioned type, in which hoses are not needed and thus the handling difficulties caused by their use, greater wear and safety risks because of heat sensitivity do not exist, and which can be manufactured less expensively and has a greater durability without intensive servicing and testing operations. It furthermore has a high degree of flexibility in certain refueling areas, in particular in aircraft refueling, and its handling during refueling in the highest areas, for example during an under-wing refueling of certain aircraft types, is possible with less use of energy.
The advantages achieved with the invention consist substantially in hoses not being needed, since they, as is known, are difficult to handle and because of their heat sensitivity represent a high safety risk, in particular during their use near running turbines and motors, as this is the case during the quick refueling of fighter aircraft. The inventive refueling system can be manufactured inexpensively and has, because of less wear, a longer durability than the usual refueling systems which operate with hoses. Also, the servicing and testing operations of the inventive refueling system are much shorter than in the known systems. Due to the fact, that the inventive refueling system is equipped with a refueling tip and swivel joints, it has a high flexibility in particular at connecting heights of approximately 2.2 m. Through the initial tension of concussion springs of a concussion-spring unit, the refueling tip of the refueling system is balanced such that it always assumes the maximum deflection. Handling during refueling in the highest area, that is at approximately a 4.7 m. height, is possible with little use of energy, because only the weight of the uppermost tip of a combination consisting of three joints must be held and moved. Due to the fact that each horizontal and vertical movement of a refueling coupling can be converted into a rotary movement, it is assured that practically no forces or loads are transmitted onto the coupling on the aircraft. The inventive refueling system equipped with the refueling tip can be used universally for refueling heights of approximately 0.8 m (tank truck) and up to a height of 4.7 m., namely also for under-wing refueling, and is thus well suited for aircraft such as the DC 10, B747 and A300.
One examplary embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the drawings and will be discussed in greater detail hereinafter.
In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a front view of the inventive refueling system with the refueling tip in the high position and the guiding carriage elevated for an under-wing refueling;
FIG. 2 is a top view of the inventive refueling system illustrated in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a side view of the inventive refueling system, in which the refueling tip is swung downwardly and in which the guiding carriage is in its low position, and
FIG. 4 is a side view of the inventive refueling system with the refueling tip in the uppermost position, which can be reached after a maximum upward swing of the refueling tip and turning of the refueling coupling by means of a joint combination, and with the guiding carriage in the elevated position.
FIG. 1 illustrates in a front view the inventive refueling system having a refueling tip 1 which can be used universally for refueling heights of approximately 0.8 m. (tank truck) and up to a 4.7 m. height. When the refueling tip is at the attainable height of 4.7 m., as illustrated, it is particularly suited for an under-wing refueling of aircraft, such as the DC 10, B747, and A300.
The refueling tip 1 consists of a pipe section 1a on which a lockable swivel joint 17 and a pipe bend 19 are arranged, which when an automatic lock 18 mounted on the lockable swivel joint 17 is released, can be pivoted at 180� about the axis of the pipe section 1a of the refueling tip 1. The lock 18 locks again immediately after the pivoting. This special design of the invention results in a high degree of flexibility of the refueling tip 1, namely in particular in the range of connecting heights of up to approximately 2.2. m.
The refueling tip 1 consists furthermore of a combination 4 connected to the pipe bend 19 and including three joints, with which combination a known refueling coupling 5 can be moved and can be adjusted elevationally in all three degrees of freedom. Since each horizontal or vertical movement of the refueling coupling 5 can be converted into a rotary movement of the combination 4 consisting of three joints, practically no forces or stresses are transmitted onto the connecting coupling, especially since concussion springs 3 substantially compensate for the weight.
The refueling tip 1 has first and second pipe bends 2a, 2b consisting of a pipe, and wherein a concussion-spring unit 3 consisting of three concussion springs 3a, 3b and 3c is secured on the first pipe bend 2a and at the end of the pipe section 1a. The concussion-spring unit 3 limits the adjusting forces to a minimum during an up and down swinging.
An elbow 6 is provided on the pipe bend 2b, with which elbow the refueling tip 1 is secured to a guiding carriage 7. The guiding carriage 7, which runs in highly exact linear bearings 8 on two guide shafts 20 of a wheeled carrier 9, can be moved, by turning a self-locking cable winch 10, upwardly into a high position or by the weight of the refueling tip 1 downwardly into a low position, not shown here. Since the cable winch 10 is self-locking, the guiding carriage 7 can be stopped in every position. However, only the high and low positions should be used for the refueling.
As is shown in FIG. 1 by an arrow ring at the end of the pipe bend 2b, the refueling tip 1 is rotatable horizontally through 360� with a swivel joint 22 arranged above the pipe bend 6 and can thus be moved into all desired horizontal refueling directions.
A further swivel joint 23 is provided on the pipe bend 2a opposite the concussion spring 3b of the concussion spring unit 3. The refueling tip 1 can be swung with the swivel joint 23 out of the horizontal position from -10� to +70�, in order to assume, as this will yet be shown, various elevational positions during refueling. In the elevated position illustrated in FIG. 1, the refueling tip is swung into the high position with the help of the swivel joint 23 and reaches here a refueling height of approximately 4.7 m., which is particularly suited, as already stated, for under-wing refueling of aircraft, such as the DC 10, B747 and A300. The guiding carriage 7 assumes thereby the position characterized in FIG. 1 with "Hi". Whereas, when the guiding carriage 7 is moved along the guide shaft 20 downwardly, then it reaches the position illustrated with "Lo", which will be discussed in greater detail later on.
The refueling tip 1 of the inventive refueling system is connected to a last pipe section 13 through a scissors pipe 11 having three joints 12. The pipe section 13 is fixedly screwed to the wheeled carrier 9. A conventional refueling arm (not shown) can be flanged to the pipe section 13 in order to receive a hydrant coupling (also not illustrated) for the connection to supply pipelines.
According to one embodiment of the invention, the refueling tip 1 can be swung from the horizontal position by the swivel joint 23 at -10� to up to +70�, so that the maximum high position of 4.7 m. or the low positions 14, 15, 16 (FIG. 3) can be achieved. In the maximum high position, a height of 4.7 m. is inventively achieved and in the low positions 14, 15 those between 0.6 and 2.2 m. Due to the fact that the refueling coupling 5 can be moved and adjusted in all three degrees of freedom with the combination 4 consisting of the three joints, it is possible at an adjusted swiveling position of the refueling tip 1, as will be discussed later on, to still change the position of the refueling coupling 5 for the purpose of elevational adjustment (for example FIG. 3).
The guiding carriage 7 is constructed preferably such that it can be stopped actually in every position between the achievable high and low positions 14, 15 through the self-locking cable winch 10.
The guide shafts 20 for moving the guiding carriage 7 are mounted laterally of the wheeled carrier 9, so that sufficient space exists for the scissors pipe 11 in the center area of the wheeled carrier 9, and have bellows 21 to protect against dirt.
FIG. 2 is a top view of the inventive refueling system illustrated in FIG. 1 with the refueling tip 1 horizontally rotatable about the swivel joint 22 and with the guiding carriage 7 in the high position. The refueling coupling 5 can be adjusted parallel with respect to the refueling tip 1 with the help of the combination 4 consisting of the three joints, which adjustment can occur when the pipe bend 10, after releasing the automatic lock 18 mounted on the lockable swivel joint 1, is pivoted 180� about the axis of the pipe section 1a of the refueling tip 1 and when the lock 18 is again locked.
The joints 12 of the scissors pipe 11 are clearly shown in the top view. Two concussion springs 3a and 3b of the concussion-spring unit 3 are illustrated on the pipe section 1a of the refueling tip 1. The concussion-spring unit 3, consisting of a total of three concussion springs 3a, 3b and 3c, assures with its initial tension that the refueling tip 1 is balanced so that it stops as much as possible in all positions, at least, however, around its center position and thus can be moved all over with little effort, since substantially only the weight of the uppermost tip with the three joints of the combination 4 need be held and moved.
FIG. 3 illustrates a side view of the inventive refueling system in which its refueling tip 1 is swung downwardly out of the position 14 with a height of approximately 2.2 m. by operating the swivel joint 23 to -10� into a position 15, and wherein the guiding carriage 7 is in its lowermost position. At a height of 2.2 m. (position 14), the refueling on aircraft connections can be carried out, and wherein the position of the refueling coupling 5 in addition is changeable in desired directions. At a position of 0.8 m. (position 15), a tank truck for refueling and a connection to a back-flushing pipeline at ground level (position 16) can be reached. By swiveling the pipe bend 19 180� upwardly, it is possible, by maintaining the swiveling position of the refueling tip 1 constant, to reach a height of approximately 1.5 m. for a further refueling purpose.
FIG. 4 illustrates a side view of the inventive refueling system with a maximum possible swinging out of the refueling tip 1 about the swivel joint 23 of up to +70�, and wherein the guiding carriage 7, which is moved into the uppermost position by the cable winch 10, is in the "Hi" position. The initial tension of the concussion springs 3a, 3b and 3c of the concussion-spring unit 3 is here too balanced such that it always assumes the maximum deviation. The refueling connections can, in the here illustrated highest position, be reached up to approximately 4.7 m. and are thus suited for under-wing refueling, in particular for aircraft, such as the DC 10, B747 and A300.

"I want to make speech longer but my English short," he said, drawing a big laugh.
In his news conference later, [Pavel] Datsyuk had a couple more zingers when he was asked how he enjoyed the Wings' Stanley Cup party.
"I remember going to the party but I don't remember coming home," he said. "I have to ask my wife because I don't remember."

A 16-year-old kicked out of a Hastings school for refusing to cut his hair will be back in class while he waits for a High Court decision on his suspension.
Lucan Battison was suspended from St John's College on May 22. He has not returned since, despite the suspension being lifted on May 30, on the condition he get a haircut.
His parents sought a judicial review in the High Court, and yesterday Justice David Collins said he was concerned at the amount of time Lucan had been out of class. He asked the school to let him back with his hair the way it was, until he ruled on the suspension within the next fortnight.
Lucan said he was looking forward to going back to school tomorrow, and it was "a bit overwhelming it went this far".
He had not decided whether he would cut his hair, or whether he would change schools if the decision went against him.
At one point in the past month, he considered switching to Napier Boys' High School, but he said he liked St John's and wanted to stay. "It's the people there and all the teachers. I just like it there."
His father, Troy Battison, said he would do it all again even if the ruling was not in his son's favour. It was "high time in 2014 in New Zealand" that somebody's hairstyle should not be a problem.
"For us personally it was about Lucan being able to express himself and go to school. He never wanted to be a rebel, he just wanted to be able to tie his hair back."
Richard Harrison, the college's lawyer, said parents bought into the school's rules when they enrolled their sons. There were 430 boys at the college, and "no-one has joined the Battisons in this application", he said.
"This isn't a case of wanting to wear a badge with a political message - it's someone who doesn't want to cut his hair because it doesn't look good."
Lucan offered to tie his hair back, but this was unacceptable to the school.
The judge questioned if principal Paul Melloy had exhausted all other disciplinary options before suspending Lucan. When he asked whether Melloy had considered excluding him from the 1st XV, Harrison said that seemed "pretty harsh".
"And suspension isn't?" Collins replied.
Lawyer Jol Bates, representing the Battisons, said Lucan should be praised for challenging an arbitrary rule, instead of being publicly criticised.
He compared Lucan to civil rights leader Martin Luther King in standing up for a law he did not think was just. "This is a hard-working Kiwi family not here to cause trouble. They have decided to stand up for something they believe in."
Outside court, Bates said school suspension matters should not be played out in courts. Parents were left with no choice but to seek a judicial review if they disagreed with a principal or board of trustees. "From the outset, the family have always wanted to go to mediation."

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
05 Mar 2012 19:59 GMT | Politics, Middle East, US & Canada, Israel, United States
Israel "reserves the right" to act unilaterally against Iran's nuclear programme, Binyamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, has told US president Barack Obama.
The two leaders met at the White House on Monday for talks amid growing calls for war with Iran.
Both said little in their brief public statements delivered before a longer private meeting, where aides said Netanyahu would push the US government to take a more aggressive stance on Iran's nuclear programme.
There has been widespread speculation, in the press and in public statements by Israeli officials, that Israel could attack Iran this summer.
The Obama administration has not said whether it would support such a move, and in recent weeks has said it sees no evidence that Iran is building a nuclear weapon.
In his statement, Obama largely echoed points he made on Sunday night in an address to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), the powerful pro-Israel lobbying group.
More time sought
Obama said that America "reserves all options" regarding Iran's nuclear programme, but wanted more time to pursue diplomacy.
"I know that both the prime minister and I prefer to resolve this diplomatically," he said. "We understand the costs of military action."
Netanyahu left the door open to unilateral military action, saying that Israel reserves the "sovereign right" to "defend itself, by itself."
The White House meeting came against the backdrop of AIPAC's annual conference, with the group's members expected to fan out across Capitol Hill to pressure legislators in the lead-up to the November US elections.
Iran expert Trita Parsi discusses US-Israel relations
In his remarks on Monday, and his speech the night before, Obama urged Israel to allow time for sanctions against Iran to work, but promised to leave "all options on the table."
"Iran's leaders should understand that I do not have a policy of containment," he said in the AIPAC speech. "I have a policy to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon."
Netanyahu's government, and AIPAC's leadership, wanted Obama to go further. He wants Obama to lay down "red lines" - a clear statement of when the US would attack Iran over its nuclear programme.
Netanyahu was scheduled to deliver his own speech to the AIPAC conference on Monday night.
AIPAC, meanwhile, is circulating flyers which describe an Iran with even the capability to build nuclear weapons as "unacceptable."
Any country with a well-developed peaceful nuclear programme has a degree of "breakout capacity," the ability to quickly build a nuclear device. AIPAC's position, which is shared by many in Netanyahu's inner circle, would call for a strike on Iran once its nuclear programme reached a certain point, even if the Iranian leadership was not actively building a nuclear weapon.
James Clapper, the US director of national intelligence, testified before congress in January that he believed Iran had not yet decided whether or not to build a bomb.
International negotiations over Iran's nuclear programme have been stalled for more than a year, but the Iranian government abruptly announced last month that it would be willing to resume talks without any preconditions.
Israel's demand
Israeli officials want Iran to completely suspend its uranium enrichment programme before the West resumes negotiations.
However, the White House has apparently rejected that demand, which Iran would almost certainly refuse; Obama told AIPAC he still believed a diplomatic solution was possible.
The Obama-Netanyahu meeting has been the subject of intense speculation in the Israeli and American press. Yediot Aharonot called it "Netanyahu's moment of truth", forcing Netanyahu to decide whether to support Obama or "collide" with him.
The Jerusalem Post compared the two world leaders to courting teenagers, "sending messages to each other through emissaries before their big rendezvous".
Gideon Levy, a columnist for the liberal newspaper Haaretz, argued that Netanyahu's aggressive lobbying on Iran could eventually undercut US support for Israel.
"Netanyahu's Israel has dictated the global agenda as no small state has ever done before, just as its international standing is at its nadir and its dependence on the United States at a zenith," he wrote.
Talk toned down
Obama sought to tone down some of that speculation during his AIPAC speech; Netanyahu, too, has reportedly instructed his aides to stop talking to the press about Iran.
"Already there is too much loose talk of war," Obama said. "For the sake of Israel's security, America's security, and the peace and security of the world, now is not the time for bluster."
The Iranian nuclear programme has also become an election-year issue in the US, where all of the Republican presidential candidates have been sharply critical of Obama's approach to Iran.
Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor and front-runner in the Republican primary race, told an audience shortly after Obama's speech that "if Barack Obama is re-elected, Iran will have a nuclear weapon".
Three of the Republican candidates - Romney, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum - were scheduled to address the AIPAC conference on Tuesday.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Lance Armstrong stopped at his Livestrong Foundation before heading to an interview with Oprah Winfrey today and delivered an emotional apology to staff members, some of whom broke down in tears, a person with direct knowledge of the meeting told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the discussion was private. Stripped last year of his seven Tour de France titles because of doping charges, Armstrong addressed the staff and said, "I'm sorry." The person said the disgraced cyclist choked up and several employees cried during the session. The person also said Armstrong apologized for letting the staff down and putting Livestrong at risk but he did not make a direct confession to the group about using banned drugs. He said he would try to restore the foundation's reputation, and urged the group to continue fighting for the charity's mission of helping cancer patients and their families.

Penicillin Skin Testing Can ID Tolerance to β-Lactam Agents
WEDNESDAY, June 19 (HealthDay News) -- Penicillin skin testing (PST) can be used to identify whether patients will tolerate β-lactam, with a negative predictive value of 100 percent, according to a study published in the June issue of the Journal of Hospital Medicine.
Ramzy H. Rimawi, M.D., from the Brody School of Medicine-East Carolina University in Greenville, N.C., and colleagues described the negative predictive value of PST and its impact on antibiotic selection in a sample of 146 patients with a reported history consistent with penicillin allergy and with negative PST. Patients were transitioned to treatment with a β-lactam agent.
The researchers found that only one of the patients experienced an allergic reaction to the PST. The remaining patients tolerated a full course of β-lactam therapy, with no evidence of allergic response. The negative predictive value for PST was 100 percent. PST-guided antibiotic alteration resulted in an estimated saving of $82,000 annually.
"Patients with a history of penicillin allergy who have a negative PST result are at a low risk of developing an immediate-type hypersensitivity reaction to β-lactam antibiotics," the authors write. "The increased use of PST may help improve antibiotic stewardship in the hospital setting."
One author disclosed financial ties to the pharmaceutical industry.

$50,000 for OJ Simpson's likeness? Well, guess we'll have to wait and hear if 2K Sports makes All-Pro Football 2K9 to see if that cash was worth it. Considering there were a number of old-school football stars in the game, that's a lot of money going toward some gimmicky name-dropping. Wouldn't spending that money on marketing and advertising have been a more fruitful venture? Ohhhh, the game is called "All-Pro" so they had to put former Pro athletes in there? Let's see if they announce APF2K9 or end up going back to the drawing board. Someone has to make decent Madden competition in the marketplace.

Damaged nerves can heal as long as the actual nerve cells are preserved and the cause of the nerve trauma is remedied, explains Corey W. Hunter, M.D. for the Neuropathy Association. It is best to address nerve damage as soon as possible so that the damage does not become permanent.Know More
Patients with nerve damage often receive a referral to a physical therapist while their primary care doctor provides them with prescription medications to manage the pain, according to Hunter. Some patients in the early stages of nerve damage can find help in acupuncture treatments. For advanced cases of nerve damage, it may be necessary for patients to undergo surgery or receive specialized injections to target the affected nerve sites.Learn more about Conditions & Diseases

how to handle a teacher that favors athletes
I'm very upset that i'm yelled at and treats me like i'm wrong if i do math in a different way. What makes me mad is when he starts bragging and saying that two of his favored students are smart and listen. I do not know alebra but i'm not helped but inored for not being athletic and it makes me mad. I'm tired of teachers only picking and favoring the athletes and those who have had alebra, but those who aren't like them are treated like they are dumb, I want to withdraw from school. I can't stand being yelled at, blamed for not knowing math and not being a athlete. the teacher says i'm wasting his time and he hates those who aren't in football, basketball, baseball, soccer, and expects me to be the same and i'm not!!!!!!!!!In Topics: School and Academics

This totally satisfies my preference for salty tangy foods. I shamelessly confess to running my finger down the inside of the bag to get to the very last crumb.
If I have to nitpick, I would have to say chips thickness is not that consistent, some are thicker than others.
I include a bag with every order I make.
hit the spot!
Posted by 5456512832169523128 on Nov 03, 2013
salt and vinegar chips - truly an acquired taste. but once you know it, it's hard to resist the urge!
glad I found these affordable chips online!
Love it!

Perfect for salt and vinegar lovers
Posted by 5113515562124668308 on Oct 06, 2013
I love salt and vinegar flavour, so these were perfect for me. They are REALLY salty, and REALLY vinegary. The chips themselves are thick and crunchy and delicious. If you're not THAT into salt and vinegar flavour, these might be too strong for you.

Home > News > Entanglement heats up
February 27th, 2006
"Entanglement" could occur at any temperature and not just in systems cooled to near zero according to new calculations by a team of physicists in the UK, Austria and Portugal. Vlatko Vedral of the University of Leeds and colleagues at the universities of Porto and Vienna have found that the photons in ordinary laser light can be quantum mechanically entangled with the vibrations of a macroscopic mirror, no matter how hot the mirror is. The result is unexpected because hot objects are usually thought of being classical. The finding suggests that macroscopic entanglement is not as difficult to create as previously believed and could have implications for making room-temperature quantum computers in the future.

Home � White Mountains
18-year-old located with mother, brother on Mount Monadnock
A team of NH Fish and Game Conservation officers, DRED Mountain Patrol Rangers, and several volunteers were called to rescue a hiker on Mount Monadnock on Saturday night.
At approximately 6:30 p.m., authorities received a call from a hiker stating that while descending the mountain her daughter fell and injured her leg.
DRED Mountain Patrol Rangers reached the trio of hikers and began administering medical attention to Allison Doyle, 18, of Fitchburg, Mass.
Doyle, along with her mother and brother, were above the "Boulder Field" approximately three-fourths of the way up the White Cross Trail. A previous medical condition made it impossible for Doyle to walk herself down the mountain after the injury and thus rescuers had to evacuate her in a rescue basket. Rescuers reached Monadnock Park Headquarters at 10:15 p.m. and transferred Doyle to the Jaffrey/Rindge Memorial Ambulance.
Doyle was taken to Monadnock Community Hospital for what is believed to be a non-life-threatening injury.

Child in need of life-saving transplant
n Volunteers needed to assist in fund-raising efforts
Nineteen-month-old Shelby Martin of Rockford was the focus of a volunteer training session Nov. 11. The training was the beginning of a fund-raising campaign with the funds used to assist with Shelbys medical expenses. Born on March 21, 2002, Shelby was diagnosed with Biliary Atresia, and doctors at the Childrens Memorial Hospital in Chicago recommended a life-saving liver transplant.
Shelby is the daughter of Scott and Jennfier Martin and the sister of Riley. Her grandparents are Rev. Thomas and Coralee Hardwick and Dennis and Linnea Martin.
Volunteers are needed to assist with raising funds for Shelbys transplant-related expenses. Individuals and groups interested in more information can contact campaign manager Kim Gorham at 963-2778 or Mike OHea at 624-4313.
An estimated $100,000 is needed for Shelbys transplant expenses, which include some post-transplant care. Tax-deductible donations may be made in person at any National City Bank branch location or mailed to the Childrens Organ Transplant Association, 2501 COTA Drive, Bloomington, IN 47403. Checks or money orders are made payable to COTA for Shelby M. with account number 758167541 written in the memo space. Secure credit card donations are also accepted online at www.cota.org.
Shelbys family has asked for assistance from the Childrens Organ Transplant Association, Bloomington, Ind., a national charity dedicated to organizing and guiding families and communities in raising funds for transplant-needy patients.
The organizations priority is to assure that no child is denied a transplant, or excluded from a transplant waiting list, due to lack of funds; 100 percent of all funds raised are used for patients transplant-related expenses.
