Rise of Police Violence in Zimbabwe Sparks Serious Concern
(Nov. 29, 2012—Washington) The Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights (RFK Center) strongly denounces the behavior of the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP), and in particular, the increasing resort to both tribal and ethnic justifications for the violent mistreatment of its citizens. The RFK Center views this foreboding trend with serious concern and calls upon the Inclusive Government and the ZRP to respect fundamental rights and adhere to the rule of law as enshrined in its constitution and international law. Specifically, we urge the Co-Ministers of Home Affairs, Ms. Theresa Makone and Mr. Kembo Mohadi, to properly investigate this matter in due accordance with Zimbabwean law.
On Thursday, November 29, upwards of 300 Women and Men of Zimbabwe Arise (WOZA) protestors peacefully marched to the Southampton House police station to register an official complaint, detailing the unabated mistreatment of its members that included a brutal mass arrest on November 13. During the November 13 altercation, on-duty ZRP officers directly referenced the Gukurahundi massacres and ordered WOZA members to not speak in their native Ndebele language. The complaint, entitled, "Bigotry, Tribal Insult, and Assault by Police Officer Mukoshi and ANOR on 13 November 2102," calls upon the ZRP to promptly investigate the matter and discipline responsible officers accordingly.
Upon delivering the complaint this morning, WOZA National Coordinator Jenni Williams and Program Coordinator Magodonga Mahlangu, were arrested and later released without charge. It is also reported that ZRP officers unduly harassed and inflicted violence on WOZA members as they knelt in prayer directly outside the police station doors. "These increasing reports of both the police and politicians in Zimbabwe using tribal and ethnic rhetoric to justify violence against law-abiding, peaceful citizens are of serious concern," said Santiago A. Canton, director of RFK Partners for Human Rights. "The government must ensure that the rights of every individual, including the rights to freedom of expression and assembly, are respected in an environment free of violence."
The RFK Center urges Zimbabwe's Inclusive Government to act immediately and responsibly to halt the unacceptable behavior that has been routinely on display by the Zimbabwe Republic Police. We respectfully remind the government of its explicit obligations under the Global Political Agreement (GPA), notably Article VII on the Promotion of Equality, National Healing, Cohesion and Unity, where it states the government will "ensure equal treatment of all, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, and place of origin" and will "strive to create an environment of tolerance and respect among Zimbabweans and that all citizens are treated with dignity and decency."
The RFK Center continues to stand in resolute solidarity with WOZA and ordinary Zimbabwean citizens who are actively striving to advance the country's peaceful democratic transition.

"Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."
Robert F. Kennedy

# make menuconfigIt will appear a screen like this:
Select the desired options then Exit saving your modifications.
After that type:
# ./configure ### Selected product: "fox" ### * Using previously fetched packages... done * Using compiler "/usr/local/cris/bin/cris-axis-linux-gnu-gcc" (revision "R63"). * Using previously fetched packages... done * Generating "Makefile"... done Creating init_env...
Now you are ready to build the new flash memory fimage based on your selected options. To do that type::
# make ...
When the compilation ends it generates a file called fimage.
To transfer this file on the FOX Board flash memory type:
# make flash
For more info about memory flashing read this article:
To modify the deep kernel options type:
# make kernelconfig
This command has to be launched only after the successful generation of the first fimage through the make command:
It will appear a screen like this:
This command will enter inside the kernel options for the kernel chosen inside the make menuconfig command. No need to specify the kernel version chosen in the make menuconfig phase as in the previous SDK.
Busybox "is a multi-call binary that combines many common Unix utilities" (like ls, mkdir, mv, wget, etc.) "into a single executable". To select which utility include in the final executable type:
# make busybox
It will appear a screen like this:
After having changed the desired options and exit saving them, a standard make command will recompile the fimage for your FOX Board with the new commands and busybox utilities options chosen.
A very useful script to store complete options and configurations for kernel, busybox applications and drivers desired for a particular specialized image is acme_config
It can be used both to save a set of custom options made with the SDK or to retrieve a desired set among a selection list.
To save the contents of the files:
that represent together the entire number of options that can be choosen in the SDK various configurations, invoke this command:
# ./acme_config save name_of_my_options
With mySpecialFoxOption we mean a particular name that can be of meaning for your particular set of options chosen.
To recall a particular set of options you just invoke:
# ./acme_config *** Setup a default configuration of the SDK *** ================================================ Select wich default configuration you would like to use. It is possible to add your own configuration by doing a acme_config save
. Saved configurations: 1. bluetooth-2.6 2. fox-vhdl 3. fox-vhdl-nofb 4. linux-2.4-default 5. linux-2.6-default 6. php-2.4 7. webcam-2.4-B1 8. wifi-2.4-B1 9. wifi-2.4-C1 10. wifi-2.6-B1 11. wifi-2.6-C1 * Which configuration would you like to use ? :
We already arranged several set of options for the most common uses of the Fox software environment. You can use one of them as a starting point from where start to make your additions/variations and then save your work with another configuration name.
Choosing the desired option set and obtain the fimage relative to the option set chosen typing:
# ./configure ... # ./make ...

Garlic Mashed Potatoes Secret Recipe
92725 plays
In this video, you'll see how to make plain mashed potatoes something truly special. Just roast a head of garlic for an hour and add the softened cloves to your mashed potatoes as you mix them. These potatoes are so tasty, you will love their flavor with just a little butter, salt, and pepper. Get the recipe for Kathleen Burton's Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes. And for other tasty ideas, check out more potato side dish videos >>
I think my preference is to not use a blend. I use a ricer or just plain masher. But also, I put potatoes in already boiled water. I find that better for overall consistency of taste

Whilst I can understand the many comments about the hotel being in the middle of nowhere it is, in fact, very well placed to get to many places and just off the end of the motorway. It is a no frills sort of place but importantly all the basics are there and they all worked well for us. The room was clean and fully equipped as was the bathroom. We only ate in the hotel for breakfast which was a reasonably comprehensive buffet although the hot food was a bit tired to say the least. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. less

Me and my friends stayed at this hotel for the weekend as we were going to the Download festival on Saturday - and this hotel was the best priced hotel we could find in comparison to everywhere else. The hotel was very good value for money.
When we arrived inside, the hotel was vast, clean and had a very relaxing atmosphere. We were greeted by some lovely ladies that assisted us with checking in and were happy to answer any queries that we had. They actually had a misunderstanding about us paying for an additional breakfast we didn't want - but they sorted it out in the most friendliest and apologetic manor and gave us our money back. The only thing I didn't like was that we phoned reception before arrival asking us what there was locally - they said there was a Tesco which was a 5 minutes walk away. Upon arrival, they said there was a co-op which was 20 minute walk away. We got to the co-op in the village of Measham after more than an hours walk which lasted for 3 miles! Funniest "5" or "20 minutes walk of my life" !!!
Our rooms were very cosy, spotless and clean, and also very modernised. The rooms contained all of the essentials that we needed. Despite noisy neighbours (although that wasn't the hotels fault) there was building works going on and we didn't even notice - there was no disruption at all - so well done for that!
We had breakfast only on the Saturday morning - I thought £7.50 was a tad pricey per head, and an even dearer price of £10 if you order on the day - but you do get an all you can eat buffet with so many options to choose from - everything in a full English breakfast, fruits, cereals etc. Plus, we asked if they could possibly do us some veggie sausages as we are vegetarians on arrival, and we got them ready to order in the morning. The buffet was steaming hot and tasted great. You could say we left breakfast feeling extremely satisfied!
Like I mentioned in the title, the only negative thing really is the location - unless you have a car (which we didn't) or do not mind paying for taxi fares all the time, or spend the majority of your trip walking. The nearest train station is Tamworth which is like, 9 miles away and cost us between £15-£17 on different days. The nearest village is the small village of Measham, which is again, over an hour to walk and you probably need to use a map on your phone as it's such a confusing area - it's mostly just full of fields and dual carriageways with very little sign posts around - but this is not the hotel's fault!
Before I forget, all of the staff are great, but me and my mates would love to give a shout out to Bill - who works there at night - very helpful and what a top bloke!
Would definitely stay here again, if I ever went to the festival again. Thanks to everyone who made our weekend such a positive one! less

Stayed here as part of nationalholidays trip. Room modern clean and tidy. Good shower and comfortable beds. Lovely surroundings, although in the middle of nowhere. Dinner a bit of a let down with hard roasties, but good breakfast with plenty of choice, although the coffee was only lukewarm. Would definitely recommend staying here as an overnight stop. less

I was driving a rental car in Phoenix and saw a flash of light from a white van. At this time 3 other cars were passing me and I assume it was the other cars. I received a notice in the mail from Hertz renter car that I need to pay a fee to waive their responsibility on a citation. I have not seen or been issued a citation. When I called Hertz they said they do not have that information available. My questions are what should I do? If I do not pay Hertz what are the ramifications? Will the state eventually go after me? Will this affect my driving record? How do I prove that the cars next to me were in fact the ones speeding and I was simply driving the speed limit?
Criminal Defense Attorney
Tell Hertz that you don't give them permission to reveal your name to the court or anyone else for that matter absent a proper subpoena by the court. I would call Hertz and find out why they think they would be financially responsible; they're not. No law requires a company or anyone else to disclose the identity of a driver. Moreover, the fact that you might have rented the car, and thus been on the agreement, does not mean you were the driver; do not admit to Hertz or anyone that you were the driver. Hertz likely received a mailed notice which is not a proper form of service. They, like you, should ignore the mailed notice unless they are properly served, like anyone else. If you end up in some way having to go to court, which you shouldn't unless you're legally and properly served, then you can worry about legal and factual defenses. Feel free to call. Good luck.

Beloved white Bengal's life celebrated
Hilo resident Sandy Woodward took a stroll through Pana'ewa Rainforest Zoo and Gardens on Saturday morning before celebrating the life of Namaste, the beloved 15-year-old white Bengal tiger who was euthanized Jan. 16.
"He reminds me of my mom. When my mom was alive, we came at least once a month. She was a cat lover," she said before approaching a shaded area near Namaste's former home.
Woodward was the first of many to share stories of the prized zoo animal. More than 30 Hawaii County community members attended the memorial. Those present thanked Meka Kaiser for writing a letter to Stephens Media Hawaii announcing the impromptu service. Although the zoo intends to have a plaque made in Namaste's honor, Kaiser said upon first hearing about his death, she just knew "she had to do something."
"I had to. I had to," she said while stepping in the center of the group. "He was just the best little furball."
Shortly after Kaiser gave a few words, people openly shared their fondest memories of the big cat.
Donna Thomas, honorary member of the Friends of the Zoo, recalled when a few Las Vegas showgirls unexpectedly visited the Panaewa Rainforest Zoo and Gardens.
"He went up to them and recognized them immediately. As it turns out, he used to walk across the stage with them when he was a little cub," she said.
Another attendee commented, "I'm going to, really going to, miss that big kitten, that big pussycat. He was gentle. We all miss him and we all love him. Some people say animals ain't got no soul, but they're wrong."
Terri Akine followed by reading a long letter aloud.
"Namaste posed for more pictures than any movie star in Hollywood," she said before laughter erupted from the crowd.
Ron Phillips, an honorary member of Friends of the Zoo, said he remembered doing tricks with the tiger, and playing "hide-and-seek."
"I'd say here little kitty, kitty, kitty," he said. "And he'd come right up. He was such a smart animal."
Debbie Anderson, a librarian at Waiakea Intermediate School, said Namaste "meant so much to the kids."
Her son, Cormack Anderson, 8, wore an orange Namaste outfit and made a robot version of the tiger on his iPad for everyone to see.
The event ended with people putting leis around Namaste's statue while a woman played a guitar and sang songs in his honor.
Before heading out for the day, Nina Bremer, member of the Board of Directors of Friends of the Zoo, said "He'll always be with us in spirit."

An appreciation of the objectives of the present invention and a more complete understanding of its structure may be had by studying the following description of the preferred embodiment and by referring to the accompanying drawings.
While the invention is susceptible to various modifications and alternative forms, specific embodiments thereof are shown by way of example in the drawings and will herein be described in detail. It should be understood, however, that the drawings and detailed description thereto are not intended to limit the invention to the particular form disclosed, but on the contrary, the intention is to cover all modifications, equivalents and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
A semiconductor device according to a first embodiment of the present invention is a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) device and comprises a plurality of DRAM chips 10-80 as a plurality of semiconductor chips and an interface chip 100, as shown in
In the illustrated DRAM device, eight DRAM chips 10-80 are stacked on the interface chip 100. The DRAM device is provided with a plurality of through-lines each of which is pierced through the DRAM chips 10-80 so that each through-line constitutes an electrical path shared by the DRAM chips 10-80; the through-lines are used for selecting, designating or identifying each DRAM chips 10-80.
The through-lines are grouped into a plurality of through-line groups. Each through-line group consists of through-lines whose number is unique to the through-line group. The numbers of the through-lines belonging to the through-line groups are mutually "coprime" to each other. The term "coprime" is used in mathematical meaning and is equal to "relatively prime"; for example, two integers x and y are coprime or relatively prime if their greatest common divisor is 1. Likewise, if the greatest common divisor of integers x, y and z is 1, the integers x, y and z are coprime.
To be noted here that the number of possible combinations of coprime numbers is larger than the total number of the coprime numbers. Based on the relation in number, a larger number of semiconductor chips are distinguished designated by using a smaller number of through-lines, in accordance with the present embodiment. For example, seven through-lines are grouped into two through-line groups; one through-line group consists of four through-lines X1-X4, while the other consists of three through-lines Y1-Y3. If one through-line is selected for each through-line group and is asserted, the number of possible combinations of the asserted through-lines becomes twelve. Thus, the grouping of seven through-lines into four through-lines and three through-lines provides distinguishablity of twelve semiconductor chips, as shown in
In this embodiment, there are seven through-lines in total, and they are grouped into two through-line groups, through-lines X1-4 and through-lines Y1-Y3. On the other hand, as mentioned above, there are eight DRAM chips 10-80. In this embodiment, three bank addresses BA0, BA1, BA2 are used for selection/designation of one DRAM chip among the DRAM chips 10-80. In other words, the bank addresses serve as designation signals for designation of DRAM chips in this embodiment.
With reference to
With reference to
With reference to
With reference to
Because the through-lines have the straight forms, the asserted terminals corresponding to each DRAM chip 10-80 are different from those of the other DRAM chips, as shown in
A DRAM device according to a second embodiment of the present invention is a modification of the DRAM device of the first embodiment. The DRAM device of the second embodiment comprises an interface chip and a plurality of DRAM chips, wherein the interface chip is the same one as that of the first embodiment, while the DRAM chips are different from those of the first embodiment and have the same structure as each other, as described in detail below.
In the following description, the terminology in graph theory is used; the words are briefly explained here. A cycle is a word used in graph theory and is a closed path whose start node and end node are the same. A directed cycle consists of nodes and directed edges or arcs. In other words, a directed cycle includes no undirected edges; all nodes included in the simple directed cycle are ordered. A simple directed cycle is a directed cycle with no repeated nodes. In other words, the number of nodes is equal to the number of directed edges in a simple directed cycle.
Various simple directed cycles are illustrated in
With reference to
Likewise, each of the DRAM chips further comprises components constituting the through-lines Y1-Y3, as shown in
As shown in
Thus obtained through-lines X1-X4 have helix forms, respectively, as shown in
With reference to
To be noted here that in this embodiment, each of the through-lines X1-X4, Y1-Y3 does not have a straight form and passes through the terminals corresponding to the different positions on the DRAM chips, respectively, as shown in
With reference to
The internal signal generation circuits 13, 23, 33 can be simplified as shown in
A DRAM device according to a third embodiment of the present invention comprises a different interface chip which a through-line assertion circuit is not provided for and, when the DRAM device is used, one of the through-lines X1-X4 and one of the through-lines Y1-Y3 are fixedly asserted. In this embodiment, only the through-line X1 and the through-line Y1 are fixedly asserted, for example, by supplying the through-line X1 and the through-line Y1 with VDD, while by supplying the through-line X2-X4 and the through-line Y2, Y3 with GND. In this case, because the combination of the asserted terminals is unique to each DRAM chips, the DRAM chip can acknowledge its layer number by checking the combination of the asserted terminals.
With reference to
With reference to
One of the inputs for each NAND circuits 106 c is a corresponding one of the identification signals ID1-ID8; the other is a layer designation signal indicative of a layer number of the DRAM chip to be designated. The layer designation signal is shown as BA0N1N2N, BA0T1N2N, BA0N1T2N, BA0T1T2N, BA0N1N2T, BA0T1N2T, BA0N1T2T, or BA0T1T2T, where "N" indicates "NOT" (=false:0), while "T" indicates "TRUE" (=1). For example, if only the first layer DRAM chip is to be designated, the layer designation signal BA0N1N2N is asserted, while the other layer designation signals are negated. Likewise, if only the second layer DRAM chip is to be designated, the layer designation signal BA0T1N2N is asserted, while the other layer designation signals are negated. The layer designation signals are obtained by decoding the encoded designation signals, i.e. the bank signals BA0-BA2 in this embodiment. The decoding may be carried out by the interface chip or by each DRAM chip.
With further reference to
The preferred embodiments described above can be modified in various manner. For example, the conceptual combination of the first and the third embodiments allows the DRAM chips to have the same structure as each other even if each of the through-lines has a straight form as shown in
While there has been described what is believed to be the preferred embodiment of the invention, those skilled in the art will recognize that other and further modifications may be made thereto without departing from the sprit of the invention, and it is intended to claim all such embodiments that fall within the true scope of the invention.

Photos of Sexy Kristen Stewart Smiling On Her Way Into Santa Monica Studio
Kristen Stewart Bares a Bit of Skin and a Smile
Like us on Facebook
Kristen Stewart knotted up her shirt on the way into a studio in Santa Monica today. Still a tomboy, Kristen is also looking like quite the little sex pot — especially after her steamy photo shoot for Allure and her belly baring shirt yesterday. It's been days since her morning goodbye from Rob after the MTV Movie Awards, but there's still a bit of a glow about her, right? Or perhaps it's just wishful thinking.

How do you know if Michael and Kristen are still dating, i still haven't seen them together! She's been back in LA for a week as well. They were normally always spotted together, either Michael going to Kristens and Kristen going to see Michael, but no, nothing. Which is very strange, so i don't think you can say that they are together when we dont know about Kristen and Michael as well as Kristen and Rob, but with the recent pictures and information i'm not really surprised if Kristen and Rob are together, it has been building up for months. About the t-shirt i don't think that it's Michaels and i dont think it's Rob's, i think it is Kristens. I have a T like that, i'm a girl, so i'm sure Kristen can have it without it being someones. But Rob and Kristen are very cute, i do hope they are together!

WTF is wrong with kristen fans? shut up. It's not like everyone should love her and adore her and if someone doesn't like her is jelous of her.you guys are like addicts. everyone is free to tell their opinion and you have noFuckin right to bash them. how stupid you are the truth is she is a bad bad actress with ugly face,she even can't talk in public

Hey guys...I really don't like this. I just found the shirt that Kristen is wearing is actually Oregano's shirt, not Rob's. I was really hoping that it was Rob's shirt that she's wearing (I saw the picture of Rob with his gray shirt but it's different than Kristen's. Rob's shirt is really loose at the collar and Kristen's is tight at the collar) but I found a picture of her and Oregano wearing that same exact color and collar shirt...check it out http://bauergriffinonline.com/bfm_gallery/2009/03/stewart%20michael/post_image/post_image-stewart_angarano.jpg. Tell me what you think... I'm so bummed =(

OMG people you are seriously goin into the deep end of crazyness..Rob's shirt? Rob's Glasses? OMG, cause i guess that type of shirt was only made for him and ofcoure if she's wearing a gray tshirt it must be his, and the glasses seeing as they are also one of a kind and only made for Robert are also his glasses...i mean Seriously! you guys are goin a bit too far with those specualations i mean every little detail now from their clothes to everything is gonna turn into another rumor! ..its just ridiculous

I think she is great she doesn't give an ef what everyone thinks she totally pulls off the grunge casual thing. And if that is Rob's T then she is one lucky girl and I'd say it's written all over her face in these pics.
cdelaney 6 years
looks like rebel rob's shirt. she hasn't always been my favorite actress, but i think that her shyness is often misunderstood and can come off in a snobbish way. she seems nervous and awkward most times, especially at social events/interviews. she is very pretty and seems to like the grunge, indy look--which she can definitely rock. as long as rob is happy, its cool. robbie deserves greatness.

I don't know why people think she is ungrateful of her fame its the exact opposite, she is so modest! She can't believe how much love she is getting from the fans. She is a beautiful and talented girl! I also believe that the haters are jealous, if not about robs FRIENDSHIP with her then they are jealous of her fame!

Its so refreshing to see Kristen smiles. She looks very attractive when she has that kind of smile. Go Kristen, stay happy. You have a lot to smile and laugh for.

WTF? Kristen looks like a normal as* 19 year old to me. Go to any college campus and 95 % of the girls there dress in tshirts and jeans. Should she dress like the rest of the HWood skanks with her as* showing under her skirt or boobs falling out of her top? Robert Pattinson sure seems to love the way she looks.

To those of you saying that Kristen doesn't act like a girl...I'm sure she is ALL WOMAN when she is in bed with her man Rob.

HOTT!!! as ever. she looks good on anything. btw is that really rob's shirt :)) it's good that she isn't like all the other celebs. they're fake. wearing all those glamorous clothes trying to prove nonesense. you don't have to dress up for everyone. she's fine as she is. SHE IS REAL. to herself and everyone else. her hair is great, her body is in great shape too. she can carry anything she wears. she's talented and all that. LOVE HER.

ah, here we go again the kristen haters! I'm not going to say anything except from, since when was it your choice to say what she should wear and what ah shouldn't? kristb rocks her own personal style, better then all the fake ass in Hollywood. and about kristen t-shirt the one she is wearing has a pocket, their is a picture in the may section on robertpattinson.org with rob in a grey t-shirt exactly like this with a pocket on the same side, cute. still no sign of MA, but robs on his way back to kristen :)

Horse business plans: A business plan can make the difference between profit and loss!
The idea behind business plans is pretty simple: What do you plan to do, how much demand is there for what you plan to do, how much income does your research indicate you will make, and how much will it cost you to run your business? Fleshing it out is a bit more complicated. Here (adapted from the Small Business Administration's website) is what you need to do.
Your business plan should contain four sections: 1) Description of the business, 2) Marketing, 3) Management, 4) Finances
Here's a sample plan that discusses each of these topics in turn.
1. BUSINESS DESCRIPTION: One example would be
Our horse business will be located at 1234 Country Lane. This property consists of 30 acres and a farmhouse. Twenty of these acres will be devoted to farmland. We plan to build a 30 stall horse barn, an indoor lighted arena, and an outdoor lighted arena. We will also fence the entire property, and cross fence to provide smaller turnout pastures for the horses. The property is a prime location, near public land (for trail riding), and only 20 minutes from the county fairgrounds.
2. MARKET: Our clientele will be equestrians who seek a quality, well-run horse stable boarding facility and/or quality instruction and horse training in these disciplines. According the county statistics, horse ownership and equestrian sports activities are projected to grow by 10% annually in the next decade, largely due to projected growth patterns for the county itself. Many new homeowners are attracted to this area due to its proximity to public land suitable for horseback riding, and the availability of county fairgrounds which frequently hold equestrian shows and competions. Currently, there are 10 boarding facilities in this area, but only 3 offer the kind of services that
Our horse business plan is to offer our boarding services at a rate that is competitive with other training and boarding facilities in the area. Breakeven analysis from our 3 year income projections indicates that this section of our business will not be highly profitable. The main source of our income is projected to be from lessons and training with Mary and John Smith, who are successful competitors in eventing, and Frank Jones, who is a successful competitor in barrel racing and western pleasure. We also plan to work out an arrangement with a reining expert to give lessons and training as an independent contractor. This is a crucial part of our business plan.
We plan to advertise our horse business through the use of a website (including Google AdWords), yellow pages, and flyers at all local feed stores, tack stores, and other venues dealing with horses. Mary Smith has maintained a successful website for 5 years in which she gives tips on horse training along with updates on the competition successes for both John and herself.
3. MANAGEMENT: Mary and John Smith are Intermediate Level Eventers with solid training in dressage, jumping, and cross country riding. Mary is a three-time regional champion, and John is a two-time regional champion. Frank Jones is a champion barrel racer. These are definite assets to our horse business plan.
Jacqueline Johnson, attorney, will be handling the incorporation process and will advise us in legal matters pertaining to our horse business plans as their arise.
Steven Harrelson will be our insurance agent. Our insurance policies will include property insurance; care, custody and control liability insurance; mortality and major medical insurance for our lesson horses; crop insurance; general legal liability.
Susan Sondson, CPA, will be our accountant. Her office will handle payroll and tax preparation for our horse business.
Jerry Johansson, tenant farmer, will take care of farming the land. He plans to rotate grass, alfalfa, and soybean crops, to bale the grass and alfalfa hay for use in our facility, and to divide the proceeds from the sale of the soybean crops with us per an agreement drawn up by our attorney.
Sam Gordon, owner of Country Feed Store, will be advising us on feed concentrates and feed regimens for the horses.
Dr. Harry Bernson and Dr. Hilary Warner will be advising us on veterinary issues for horses in our horse business.
Cody Branson will be our barn farrier. He is the most respected farrier in this area.
4. FINANCES: Our requirements for start-up capital for our horse stable are detailed in the attached list. We plan to purchase the property at 1234 Country Road. Mary and John will provide the downpayment for the commercial mortgage through the sale of their current home. They will also provide a truck and horse trailer for business use, and sufficient funds to cover initial costs of hay, feed concentrate, and bedding. Frank Jones will provide funds for fencing and farm equipment (primarily a tractor with attachments for mowing the grounds and grooming the arenas, and an ATV for use on the property.)
We are seeking financing for construction of the horse stable, arenas, and hay barn, plus a business operating line of credit. The construction of the stable, arenas, and hay barns are one-time capital expenses (and these structures will be depreciated as a business expense). Repairs to these structures and the fencing are included in our monthly cash flow projection to indicate the ongoing requirements for cash. We plan to use the line of credit to cover the initial costs of these items, and to pay back the line as income accrues from business activities.
You should attach to this horse business plan the following items:
• Personal financial statements for the main parties (e.g., Mary and John Smith, Frank Jones)
• A balance sheet showing the projected assets and liabilities for the business
• Projected income(loss) statements for the first 3 years
• Licenses and approvals needed from state and county government agencies showing that you can in fact use the property you plan to purchase in the way you plan to use it. Zoning boards can be very sticky when it comes to horse facilities, so be sure to do your homework here and have an attorney on board. Avoid problems with your business plans by taking special care with this step.
As you write your horse business plans, you will get a clearer, more concrete idea of what is involved in creating and running a successful horse business, so take your time with part of your venture. If you skip this step, you are likely to regret it later. But as you work on it, you will see your dream begin to take shape, becoming more real and more realizable! That is a thrilling prospect!

|On the graveyard shift at the Deep Space Surveillance observatory in Hawaii, an air force airman steps out for a smoke, looks up, and catches sight of a shooting star?no, two shooting stars, strangely paired, and too bright against the night sky. This can't be right, he thinks ? The airman is right. The objects are not stars but asteroids on a collision course with earth, and there is almost no time to prepare an unsuspecting world for the all but total devastation soon to come. But a retired army colonel and his family in western Pennsylvania, a group of cadets at the Virginia Military Institute, the president of the United States, and a handful of others across the country manage to survive the asteroid impacts and the towering twin tsunamis that follow?only to discover that the worst is far from over. For in the wake of the devastation, small, life-bearing objects are falling to earth ? and a plan laid out 400 years in the past begins to unfold.Without Warning takes the reader from the frozen depths of a world hurled into nuclear winter to a final battle for the very survival of the species?a journey the reader will not soon forget.

Re: weird overdubs
It's actually true, indeed. Tape does have a tendency to deteriorate and there was a particular period when the tape being made by (3M I think) one company actually had a manufacturing flaw that meant that it deteriorated particularly quickly. I think one of the glue layers had a flaw and it meant there was separation between them. Those tapes had to actually be baked in an oven to be playable and then they would only work a couple of times - so quite a lot of tape has actually been lost and vinyl mastering has been the only option.
A lot of really old records (think Django, etc) were actually cut straight to vinyl - which is fascinating to me - and it wasn't until the mid-50's until tape started taking over as it was far more reliable. Until then, the tape was far too crude and inconsistent.
Going full circle, the band Portishead's second album (Called Portishead) went through and interesting mastering process, making heavy use of vinyl. If I recall correctly, they mastered to tape, then mastered to vinyl and then mastered back to tape from the vinyl - so if you listen to the record, it has a dark, grainy characteristic. It sounds great - but not something I'd use all the time. The album is incredibly dark; so it works.

Veterinarian Robin Marlowe moved to Colorado to put the past behind her. She had darn good reasons for not trusting men, especially good-looking flirts like sheriff Charlie Winchester. But the gorgeous hunk showed up everywhere she went--even when she tried to turn away.
Charlie was paid to pick up clues, and after one look at Robin's creamy skin and wide eyes, he could tell she'd been hurt--badly. Charming every girl in Waterloo had never been a chore--until Robin. Now he was determined to be there for her, be patient, be her friend--be anything she needed...because this lawman wanted nothing less than her heart!

SAN ANTONIO -- Heat and humidity wil drive the heat index to about 105 degrees Wednesday afternoon in South Central Texas, according to the National Weather Service.
High temperatures will range from the mid-90s to nearly 100 degrees, according to the agency's office serving San Antonio and Austin. Humidity caused by recent rainfall and low-level moisture from the Gulf of Mexico will make the air feel even hotter, according to meteorologists.
The heat index values should drop below 100 degrees around sunset, as temperatures fall.
"Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside," meteorologists wrote in a special weather statement. "Wear lightweight and loose fitting clothing when possible and drink plenty of water."
The weather service also warned against leaving children, disabled adults or pets in parked vehicles.
Light winds will blow from the east in the afternoon, shifting to the south after midnight, according to meteorologists. Wednesday night will be partly cloudy, with low temperatures in the mid-70s in Bexar County and the lower 70s in the Hill Country.

Hey, those Sunpaks look like a terrific idea. I hadn't thought about using a cord off-camera, and actually I believe the original 480ex won't take a PC cord, will it? I've got cable-able flashes, I've got Canon TTL-capable flashes, but I think the intersection of the two is empty.
The Sunpak module that has the TTL "brains" is standard across all their flashes, right?

Voice of the People
Leave Wayne senior prank in the past
This letter is in response to a letter that appeared on June 4. First and foremost, the senior prank is over at Wayne High School. The students responsible have been punished and are redeeming themselves with community service and restitution, not to mention being banned from graduation. It is time to move on and let this situation go.
Her allegations that the school has many problems infuriated me. She apparently isn't aware of the educational affairs of the school.
The class of 2013 received approximately $800,000 in scholarships. This does not include the five who have enlisted in the U.S. military who will receive college funds. Among these are 15 Promise Scholars who will attend colleges within our state and plan to contribute back to our community.
If the writer had taken the time, she would have seen the positives of Wayne High School. She may have read about the robotics program that represented the state at a world competition, the Skills USA program that has sent students to the national competition the last six years, the Nursing Program that has been to a national competition the last five years, and excellent Journalism/Yearbook program, and an excellent JROTC program.
While it is true that Wayne High School has an excellent football program, a great softball program and competitive volleyball, cheerleading, basketball and baseball teams, it is the academic programs where the students demonstrate the most success. And, often, the two, athletics and academics, go hand in hand. This isolated incident shouldn't put a black mark on an outstanding school that has quality students, staff and administrators. This situation should be laid to rest, and the community should once again rally behind the school and its student body with pride.
