The Honorable George W. Grayson
Substantial, rather than strict, compliance with regulatory procedure for validating breath test device is sufficient. Regulatory procedure complies with statutory requirements for validating breath tests to be used as evidence in prosecutions.
The Honorable Harry J. Parrish
Ten-year period specified for revocation of driver's license upon second conviction of driving under influence of alcohol or drugs is calculated for adult, from first to second conviction, and for juvenile, between two findings of guilt.
Mr. Patrick J. Morgan
Circuit court clerk vacancy is to be filled promptly on Tuesday date that falls within purview of statutory limitations for holding special elections. November general election day is among dates court may consider for holding such election.
The Honorable M. Kirkland Cox
No authority for Colonial Heights City Council to call for advisory referendum regarding establishment of recreation center in city.
The Honorable Phillip A. Hamilton
Transfer of $15.9 million from 2000-2002 biennial budget, containing approximately $5 million in anticipated excess revenues, prior to enactment, effected tax relief in manner consistent with terms of Tax Relief Act and Appropriation Acts for 1998-2000 biennium. Criteria established in Tax Relief Act for funding tax relief exceeding estimates of Department of Motor Vehicles is consistent with constitutional mandate directing General Assembly to establish criteria ensuring equitable expense-revenue ratio. Provided Governor proposes budget amendments addressing difference between estimated cost of funding personal property tax relief for year ended June 30, 2000, and localities' requests for reimbursements of their qualifying reduced revenues for that year, revenues will be sufficient to meet expenditures, and $15.9 million transfer will not create unbalanced budget, in violation of Constitution. Responsibility of Comptroller to reimburse localities for reduced personal property tax revenues attributable to contemplated tax relief within 2 business days of submission of proper claims is consistent with Appropriation Acts and Tax Relief Act, and is presumed consistent with Constitution. Transfer of funds to meet reimbursement requirements of Act, therefore, was authorized by General Assembly.
The Honorable Warren E. Barry
Gasoline retailer who meets definition of "distributor" and complies with licensure requirements described in Act may be licensed by Commissioner of Department of Motor Vehicles as distributor. Jobber may be licensed either as distributor or transporter of motor fuel to gasoline retailer. Liability for payment of tax on motor fuel removed from terminal rack. First person who receives fuel upon its removal from terminal, and who is not simply motor fuel transporter, is entitled to 1% collection allowance upon remittance of tax payment to supplier. Legislative decision to permit entity that pays supplier for fuel at terminal rack to take advantage of 1% discount does not create classification between jobbers and gasoline retailers that would constitute prohibited special legislation.

Large content downloads by LUA server
I am running LiveUpdate Administrator v2.3.1 and downloading all content updates for use by my SEP11 SEPMs.
Usually the LUA downloads about 300MB of content per day, but yesterday it downloaded almost 4GB of data, and today it downloaded 7.6GB. Luckily the downloads happened overnight, so there was no impact on the customer network.
However I want to understand why it was necessary to download such a large amount of data on two successive days given that the LUA is fully up to date on content. Had the downloads happened in office hours the network impact could have been considerable.
Is there a way to throttle the content downloaded at any one time?

Don't forget to mark your thread as 'SOLVED' with the answer that best helped you.
use the latest version.
if you do not have Mac OS , uncheck that definition to be downloaded.
Help Link: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/overview.jsp?pid=54619
Perhaps this may be of use to you?
"...For updates that utilize monthly Hub sets, there will be a much larger LUA download once a month of between 1.5 and 2.5 GB..."
Is it possible you have content for multiple products selected for download (all of which use the Hub defs mentioned in the article)?
As mentioned above if there are no Macintosh machines in the environment you can remove the download for those definitions - it will take usually couple of GBs each month. Here a document where the MAC defs download is being set up: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH103198
Thanks for all the responses, very helpful. This article by Mick was of particular interest:
I'm comfortable with the idea of hub defs being downloaded once a month, however it would help if I could be sure roughly what time of day or night this is likely to happen. My LUAs are configured to check for updates once per hour to ensure the SEP11 clients get updates as quickly as possible.
If a hub definition set were to be downloaded during office hours that could impact Internet access for users. So, is it possible to know if Symantec always release hub defs during the night (UK time), or is it random timing?
Cheers for the compliments on the article, GW. &: )
The time and date for the release of the hub definitions differs from month to month. It might be a good enhancement request (Connect Forum Idea) to allow admins to choose when to downlaod them, when they are available?
With thanks and best regards,
"Thumbs up" from me, if it is a feature that LUA admins would find useful.
Here's a link to the proposed enhancement request for anyone else who would like to cast a vote:
With thanks and best regards,

Boulder Meeting Transportation
Download a Printable Transportation Guide
As your meeting attendees make their way into Boulder on Highway 36, cresting the hill known as Davidson Mesa and looking down into the Boulder Valley, you may hear a few gasps. It's a breathtaking view of the city spread out before you, cradled by the red sandstone and pine-dotted foothills and with glimpses of the white-capped Rocky Mountains beyond.
With a little planning, the pleasure of arriving to Boulder can be easily continued as you transport your group around this well laid-out city. Below are some tips for arriving to Boulder and getting around once you're here.
Arriving by Air
Denver International Airport is the closest major airport to Boulder and is located approximately one hour east. For detailed information about Denver International Airport, please visit www.flydenver.com/. Options for getting to and from the airport include:
Shuttle Services
SuperShuttle and Green Ride Boulder will take guests directly to many of Boulder's hotels or other locations. Please see their websites for rates and schedules.
RTD Bus
RTD operates a bus from DIA to Boulder (Route AB) that makes several convenient stops in Boulder. Buses leave approximately every 60 minutes from the airport. The schedule can be found on RTD's website (select route AB). Tickets are paid directly to the driver upon boarding the bus (cash and exact change only). This is a more economical option, with one-way tickets costing $13. RTD has an information booth on the baggage claim level of the Main Terminal. The trip takes approximately 1.5 hours. www.rtd-denver.com
Driving to Boulder from DIA
Take Pena Boulevard and merge onto I-70 west. Take I-70 to I-270 west. Continue onto Highway 36, which will take you to the east side of Boulder. This route is easy, free of tolls and fast during non-peak traffic hours.

Boulder's Community Transit Network (CTN) also provides bus service for Boulder with the easy-to-ride HOP, HOP2, SKIP, JUMP, BOUND, DASH, STAMPEDE and BOLT routes. The HOP's circuit, in particular, is a very useful shuttle-like service for meeting attendees traveling from meetings sites to popular locations including downtown, the Twenty Ninth Street shopping area and the University of Colorado campus. The HOP arrives at clearly marked stops every 7-15 minutes, depending on season and time of day. For more information, visit the City of Boulder's website.

|Police, fire work together to secure area, armed man apprehended
|Tuesday, 14 August 2007 05:39
An armed man had both law enforcement and fire and rescue workers out in droves last night in Boone.Officers responded to a 911 call of a possible suicidal man with a gun at an apartment complex on Long Street. Officers found the unidentified 48-year-old male brandishing a semi-automatic handgun outside the complex. Attempts to communicate with the man were not effective, officers say. The man retreated to an upstairs apartment. In the meantime, deputies, with the help of the Boone Police Department and Boone Fire Department, secured the area. The apartment complex was evacuated and traffic was stopped on the 105 Bypass. The man in the apartment retrieved a shotgun and stepped back onto the porch, reportedly firing the weapon in the air. Officers were able to convince the man to put the gun down, and as dialog deteriorated, officers were able to take him into custody. One report suggests a Taser was used to apprehend the man. He has been transported to Watauga Medical Center for evaluation. No one was hurt in the incident.

"Longtime lurker, first-time poster."
My wife and I were at The Gage in Chicago on Saturday night, and I ordered a drink they've dubbed, "Greely's Feast" -- after Adolphus Greely. The menu lists Laird's Applejack (no proof specified), Punt e Mes, Luxardo Amaro Abano, and chocolate bitters as the ingredients. No proportions included, of course, and though I suppose I could ask for what they use, that's sort of beside the point, because:
It seems (to me, at least) as if this should be a good drink, but it was... flat. Not out of balance, precisely, just not very interesting. Which surprised me, because I'd expected it to be more than ho-hum. I'm still training my palate and learning how different ingredients work together, and I thought I'd reach out to the brilliant folks here for thoughts on how to deconstruct and reconstruct this drink. Any ideas?
(It also occurred to me that maybe other people here would have similar questions about other drinks, and this thread might be a useful place to raise them -- though if there's already a thread dedicated to this sort of thing, please let me know; I didn't find one after a bit of searching, though there are at least a couple similar threads that seem dedicated to recreating drinks from The Violet Hour.)

The Clean Oceans Act sets up a mechanism for gambling boats to stop dumping 44 million gallons of pureed, chlorinated waste into the ocean every year. It requires gambling boats to register with DEP, pay berth facilities for waste hauling or use an onboard "closed system" treatment, and report waste releases to DEP. In addition it petitions the federal government to prohibit dumping in federal waters.
This campaign was spearheaded by the Sebastian Inlet Chapter with major support from the entire Florida Chapter Network. More info
Florida has over 60 inlets around the state, many have been artificially deepened to accommodate commercial and recreational vessels and employ jetties to prevent sand from filling in the channels. A by-product of this practice is that the jetties and the inlet channels have interrupted the natural flow of sand along the beach causing an accumulation of sand in the inlet channel and at the jetty on one side of the inlet, and a loss of sand to the beaches on the other side of the inlet.
The six South Florida sewage outfalls, dump over 300 million gallons of wastewater into the sea and squandering 100 billion gallons of freshwater every year. This discharge impacts not only our coastal and ocean environment but it is also a waste of valuable freshwater that could be used to help out with South Florida's drinking water shortage.
During a year of heavy budget cuts it usually the items that are thought to be the most benign that are first to go. So when House Health Care Council puts beach monitoring in the same line i

Surfrider Foundation's Connecticut Chapter won a major victory in their campaign to stop the installation of a huge and dangerous Liquid Natural Gas project in Long Island Sound. Connecticut officials and environmental groups have been applying heavy pressure on New York State officials who had the final say on go/no-go.
In late April, NY Governor Patterson announced at a press conference NY's decision to effectively scuttle the project. Connecticut's Governor Jody Rell and AG Richard Blumenthal also held a press conference on the shores of the Sound.
Mr. Blumenthal, who has been a consistent presence in the fight to stop this project, called this " an excellent case study of citizens advocacy, when government and citizens groups work together" to accomplish a common goal. Dozens of environmental advocacy groups, including t
Surfrider Foundation's Coastal Georgia Low Country Chapter won a victory in their efforts to help protect Jekyll Island State Park from development. Jekyll Island Authority (JIA) Board Chairman Ben Porter announced via a letter to Representative Jerry Keen that the Authority will revise the beachfront component of its plan to redevelop Jekyll Island State Park. The announcement followed a hotly contested legislative struggle in which a series of attempts to introduce protective Jekyll legislation were killed in committee despite thousands of calls from concerned Georgia citizens to legislators on both sides of the aisle.
Thanks to the input of Georgia citizens from around the state speaking through leading Jekyll advocates Senator Jeff Chapman, Representative Debbie Buckner, and Representative Dubose Porter, the voice of the people has emerged as the single most powerful entity in the ongoing discussion of the planned revitalization of Jekyll Island State Park. More info
In August of 2007, the Oregon Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation filed a motion of intervention with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for the Florence Wave Energy facility proposed by the Australian company Oceanlinx. This motion (the first ever filed in the world by Surfrider) was brought about by concerns raised by local ocean users of the Florence Organizing Committee who wished to have a formal seat at the table when discussions moved forward in the planning process. The Surfrider Foundation supports finding new ways to harness renewable energy, as long as local needs and impacts are taken into proper consideration and steps are taken to avoid degradation of cultural rituals. After nearly 9 months had gone by since Oceanlinx had filed its preliminary permit application, and zero public outreach and stakeholder involvement had been initiated, the company decided to withdraw their permit from consideration by FERC. For those who love surfing the south jetty, fishing and crabbing in the nearshore waters, or a nice stroll along the beach to view a beautiful Pacific sunset, this news was a major victory! More info

OXFORD -- The city of Oxford is taking one of its first visible steps toward renewing its city center.
On Monday, contractors began the demolition of the Oxford City Hall building on West Clark Street to make way for the new Oxford Community Center and City Hall. This comes about a month after conducting some site work and clearing for the project.
While construction work is being completed, City Hall will operate from its city building at Emory and Whatcoat streets, which is currently used as a community center and police department.
The city originally had planned to operate from its West Clark Street location, but Oxford Mayor Jerry Roseberry said temporarily relocating the administrative offices will speed up the project by about 30 days.
"All city services will be normal," he said about the move.
The hours of operation will continue to be 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Mondays through Fridays. The emergency number, 911, will continue to be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The city phone number, 770-786-7004, will remain the same.
The Oxford Police Department remains at the Whatcoat Street site, but will move into the old fire department part of the building. The community center will continue to act as a location for voting, Municipal Court and meetings for the Oxford City Council and other groups.
The city anticipates the $1.6 million project to be completed by late summer.
The new city center will house the community center, City Hall administrative offices and the police station.
"All city functions will be there except for the utility department, which will continue to operate out of the maintenance facility," Roseberry said.
The city center will be a two-story building and will include environmentally friendly qualities like its own irrigation system.
Roseberry said this project is important as the anchor for the future town center.
He said the new city center will serve as the northernmost point of the town center, while the current community center and police station will serve as the southernmost point. In between will be limited speciality shops and other city services.
He said the current community center could one day house the Oxford College bookstore.
"It's one of the options we're negotiating with the college," Roseberry said. "We should know in January. It would be nice for them and open to the public."

Hope dims for Bainbridge Island's historic Moran building
BAINBRIDGE ISLAND - The slim ray of hope for saving the historic Moran School theater building appears to have dimmed.
Soundcare, the owner of the four-story Skiff Point building, has given notice that it intends to restart the demolition process after negotiations with potential buyer Carden Country School broke down this month.
"Regrettably, requirements which we discovered ... cannot be reconciled (with) the school's expectations," wrote Soundcare's Edwin Wheeler in a letter to the Bainbridge Historic Preservation Commission.
Wheeler indicated in the letter that Soundcare would reapply for a demolition permit.
Wheeler could not be reached for further comment.
Representatives from Carden who are involved in the negotiations could not be reached.
Commission co-chairman Jim McNett said his group's communications with Soundcare indicate there is little hope for the 88-year-old building.
"It seems kind of dire," he said. "It doesn't look like the school's going in there — that's for sure.
McNett said Soundcare is open to letting preservationists document the building through drawings and photographs before it is torn down.
Carden, a 40-student Christian school based on Island Center Road, began working with Soundcare on a purchase agreement late last year.
The school wants to expand beyond the small farm it uses now and was willing to raise the estimated $2 million needed to renovate the 13,000-square-foot building, which has sat vacant for decades.
Renovation financing would have relied partly on state tax credits and the added tuition revenue from the 60 additional students the larger building would allow.
A handful of other nonprofit and educational organizations showed interest in purchasing the building, but Carden rose to the top because of its compatibility with the neighboring Messenger House nursing home, which Soundcare operates, and because it would have returned the building to its original use.
Constructed in 1923, the building was part of expansion of Moran School, a private academy that was the precursor to Seattle's prestigious Lakeside School. The building featured a 250-seat theater, laboratories, classrooms and a dormitory.
Noted Moran alumnus include Nobel laureate Walter Brattain. He coinvented the transistor, which revolutionized the electronics field and sparked the development of computers.
The building was later absorbed into Puget Sound Naval Academy and briefly served as the primary location for the making of 'Farewell to Harry,' an independent feature film.
Soundcare has used the building for storage, but has not maintained its deteriorating exterior.
The company's planned demolition of the building last year sparked outcry from local and state historical preservationists. Soundcare backed off the plan in August to allow groups to form purchase and renovation proposals.
Its stucco exterior, electrical wiring and plumbing would have to be replaced, but the structure appears sound, according to building assessors.
The one-acre property is valued at just under $200,000.
The Washington Trust for Historic Preservation named the building to its 2010 list of the state's "most endangered" properties. The trust plans to meet with the Bainbridge preservation commission on Thursday to discuss alternatives to the demolition.

MULLAITTIVU: HAVE you ever seen this type of a hospital treating 'innocent civilians'? Have you also seen a medical center which has been "extensively booby-trapped" and its outside perimeter, filled with explosives and protected by a fortified bunker?
A few weeks ago, an international relief organization, under the illusion that this unit was meant for civilians, repeatedly requested the Army to refrain from targeting this so-called 'hospital' in the No Fire Zone. Photos speak louder and contradict all those conclusions, proving once again how the terrorists have taken the IC for a ride.
This bunker-covered makeshift medical unit, housed in a dilapidated old building, as all bits and pieces affirm has been widely used to treat fellow-Tiger terrorists receiving injury in the clashes with Army troops. It has been covered with coconut logs as a protective wall. Saline bottles hung on cloth lines, blood pressure units, dressings, oxygen cylinders, needles, surgical spirit bottles, antibiotic capsules, injection syringes, tablets, capsules, urine bags, surgical bandages and many other chemicals. The area surrounding the entrance to the unit has been mined and booby trapped, according to ground troops.
The unit had photos of garlanded Tiger leaders inside and all mats on the floor had been splashed with blood stains, pointing to the fact that wounded terrorists had been treated inside until most recent times. Tiger propagandists and their proxies from roof tops claimed the troops have struck a 'hospital' inside the New Safety Zone and massacred innocent civilians, a story that was conveniently bought by some LTTE supportive media. This hurriedly put up emergency treatment center, as all evidence confirmed, has perhaps been the one and only alternative for injured terrorists in the remaining area. This is how 'liberators' were duping the Diaspora and the naïve International Community. Over to you our readers!

What is Diesel Exhaust Fluid?
- Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is a urea based fluid designed specifically for use in SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) systems to reduce NOx emissions. DEF is API certified and meets ISO22241 specifications. Diesel Exhaust Fluid is non-toxic, non-flammable, colorless, non-hazardous, and very easy to use. Beginning with all 2010 cars and trucks.
- In 2010, cars and trucks with diesel engines sold in the United States must meet new U.S. EPA emissions requirements. To meet these requirements, many diesel engine manufacturers (OEMs) have decided to use Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), an emissions after treatment technology that converts nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the diesel-engine exhaust stream into nitrogen and water vapor, two natural components in the air we breathe.
- SCR technology is not newit has been in use for many years in Europe but it is new in North America. SCR converts NOx to nitrogen and water vapor using a catalyst, the heat from the exhaust, and a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). The fluid is injected into the diesel exhaust stream. The fluid and the chemical catalyst convert the NOx into the harmless gases.
The 2010 Emissions standards in North America have mandated that all on-road diesel vehicles manufactured in 2010 or later must be equipped with technology to reduce NOx emissions. NOx emissions need to be removed from the air because they contribute to global warming, acid rain, atmospheric particles that visual impairment.
Currently, there are two technologies that meet these 2010 EPA guidelines:
- Advanced EGR
- Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR). SCR is the most widely used technology and it is the process of removing the NOx from fuel gases during the combustion process. This technology has been in use since the late 1950s on large commercial boilers and has been shown to reduce Nox emissions by 70-90%. This helps protect the environment by reducing the amount of harmful nitrogen oxides emitted into the atmosphere by converting them to harmless nitrogen and water.
This conversion is done by injecting Diesel Exhaust Fluid, commonly referred to as DEF, into the exhaust stream which converts the NOx to water vapor and harmless gases to be released from the tailpipe.
DEF is made from 32.5% high purity urea and 67.5% DI water and is considered to be safe, non-toxic and environmentally friendly. When fueling the SCR equipped diesel engine, DEF is added to a separate tank on the vehicle. The DEF is consumed at a rate, approximately equivalent to, 2% of diesel fuel consumption and contributes to approximately 4% fuel economy savings of the vehicle. When the diesel engine is operating, the DEF is injected into the exhaust stream where it reacts with a catalyst to reduce the amount of nitrogen oxide emitted into the atmosphere, thereby protecting our environment.
What does DEF mean for drivers? Vehicles equipped with an SCR system use sensors to determine that, in fact, DEF is in the system and not a liquid such as water. These vehicles also have other instrumentation such as gauges or warning lights as to alert the driver to the level of DEF in the vehicle. If the vehicle were to be run without a supply of DEF, the vehicle would enter into a Limp Mode which would allow the vehicle to be safely driven to the nearest location to replenish the DEF. This Limp Mode is similar to the familiar Check Engine light familiar to most motorists. While in the Limp Mode, the diesel engine will not produce full-power and by limiting power and the vehicle will be limited to 5mph with inducement notification.

Point Foundation empowers promising LGBTQ students to achieve their full academic and leadership potential – despite the obstacles often put before them – to make a significant impact on society.
Eric Nakano was born and raised in a conservative Christian family in a suburb of Southern California. As a child, his father worked for Focus on the Family, an evangelical parachurch organization and Eric himself was a rising youth leader at his Christian school and church. After graduating from high school, he went on to study Political Science at Penn State Mont Alto and was elected Student Government President his sophomore year. But after experiencing severe bullying and antigay harassment from other students, he transferred to the George Washington University and graduated cum laude with a BA in Political Science and Public Policy.In 2007, Eric relocated back to Los Angeles where he accepted a job as an Associate Director of Development at UCLA. It was in the conservative areas near where he grew up that he volunteered extensively for the No on 8 Campaign, organizing communities of faith to vote no on the initiative, which would take away the right of same sex couples to marry. Following the passage of Proposition 8, he organized Campaign Boot Camp, the largest campaign training in the state on ballot initiatives in preparation for a future ballot initiative that would restore marriage equality. The following year, he organized College Rush, an event aimed at connecting Los Angeles area LGBT college students with resources at the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center and with LGBT friendly Fortune 500 companies. And this past year, Eric organized the nation's first Asian Pacific Islander (API) Coming Out Workshop to help API LGBT youth discuss their sexual orientation with their families and friends.Inspired by working with LGBT leaders and community organizations that served LGBT people in these communities, Eric decided to pursue his Masters in Public Policy at Duke and an MBA to prepare for a career in public service. At Duke, he aims acquire policy and management skills that will enable him to one day establish and grow an LGBT social service organization in an underserved area of the country and to pioneer new methods of social service delivery.

Yet another Saturday morning cartoon show that I don't remember. I was nine, what was my problem? I knew that Parker Stevenson was in a live-action version (I read his Baywatch bio!) of the Boys but I was totally unaware that they solved mysteries and played in a rock 'n' roll band in a cartooned fashion. I do think that it's funny that the well scrubbed, PC approved young persons pictured above are given the names of the characters and are as non-offensive in appearance as can be humanly calculated. Of course, I could be wrong if the producers recruited two male leads born with the Hardy name. That's the extent of my knowledge about The Hardy Boys. The rest is a mystery. I have their second album and have the first one on tape. The Hardy Boys are my new favorite group. The first album is extra gummy and the second is a fine example of early 70s lightweight pop. Ellie Greenwich was involved so you know that can't be bad. I will continue to search for clues about this over-looked group and live with the hope that Chubby will contact me.
UPDATE: According to the wonderful book, Bubblegum Music Is The Naked Truth: "'Frank Hardy' was in reality Reed Kailing, a former member of Midwestern garage-rockers Michael & the Messengers (who can be heard on the original Nuggets compilation, and subsequent box set doing "(Just Like) Romeo & Juliet.")"

I am a child of the post-Cold War era. I grew up in three different countries on three different continents, all of which have undergone massive transformations in the last twenty years. Turkey, where I was born, has been experiencing a fundamental questioning of its Republican form of government and a resurgence of religion in public life, and has sought to plant its feet firmly in Europe through its efforts to join the EU. I lived in Germany from 1989 to 1994 – soon after unification and the collapse of the communist bloc, and experienced the simmering resentment against immigrants, especially Turks. And I have lived in the US since 2005, experiencing firsthand changes in US foreign policy in the aftermath of 9/11 as both a Middle Eastern and a European woman. Such global changes over the last twenty years that not only affect domestic and international politics but also the lives of ordinary individuals form the background to my academic interests. In particular, my research focuses on the relationship between religion and politics in the contemporary era. I recognize the complexity of studying religion and politics, and thus the need to include both domestic and transnational elements as well as the use of multiple methodological approaches.
My current research focuses on political Islam. Islamist movements appear daily in the newspaper headlines around the world. Yet contrary to popular opinion that all Islamist movements are anti-systemic, violent, and secretive, some Islamist movements across the Muslim world have chosen to enter the system, to play by the rules, and to seek political change from within the system by forming an Islamic political party. The transformation of movements into parties—in such states as diverse as Yemen, Indonesia, Turkey, Jordan, and Morocco—is puzzling for two main reasons: movements are forming parties in both democracies as well as in non-democratic situations, in which the benefits of mobilization as a party are unclear while the potential costs in terms of repression remain high; and because Islamic religious authorities rarely endorse such a move, and often condemn it. In my dissertation I therefore ask "Why have so many Islamist movements chosen to expend considerable resources to form political parties?" To answer this question, I have conducted extensive qualitative research in Jordan, Morocco and Turkey.
My research and teaching interests are not limited to political Islam. I am also interested in democratization, social movements, international norms and institutions as well as in judicial politics. On this latter topic, I published an article recently with Hootan Shambayati in Political Research Quarterly, exploring the Turkish Constitutional Court and its political role, titled "In Pursuit of "Contemporary Civilization:" Judicial Empowerment in Turkey."

John Abbott of Bridlewood Farm
A Passion For Teaching
by lois britten,
gary Knoll
Abbott was raised on a farm in the suburbs of Lansing, Michigan. To John?s depression-era dad, horses were work animals, not pampered pets. ?Our horses, Tom and Jim and Bob, plowed the fields,? says John. ?One day, I decided to get on top.? He liked it there. John started as most farm boys do, riding Western, learning through the local 4-H club. Eventually he had the opportunity to take a few clinics that introduced him to English riding, and, above all, jumping. That did it. Once he left the ground on a horse?s back, it was hard to stay earthbound; nor did he have to. John had talent and found his way to the show ring early on as a junior competitor. He began riding with Kay Richardson, a well-known hunter/jumper trainer in the area, and by the mid-1970s, John graduated to the big show circuit, including the A-rated Motor City Horse Shows and the Bloomfield Open Hunt Club shows. Still riding in the junior hunter divisions, John was showing his own horse, Narrow Escape, another hunter named Polish, as well as one of Kay Richardson?s horses, Dupose. Kay also introduced the precocious junior rider to the basics of dressage, which was somewhat unusual in those days. ?I really liked it,? John says. ?I like how the classical horsemanship adds to the training for any discipline.? In 1976, John moved to Atlanta where he earned a degree in Interior Design from the Art Institute of Atlanta. While pursuing his degree and his subsequent design career, he rode at the Atlanta Equestrian Center. Karen Kirby and Frank Gombolay, two top trainers to this day, were teaching there. They recognized John?s talent and he was soon riding better and better horses. In addition, Karen had close connections with legendary jumper riders Kathy Kusner and Joe Fargis, both of whom came to Atlanta to give clinics in the early 1980s. John took full advantage of that great opportunity. By 1984 it was goodbye to interior design, and hello to full-time horses. Abbott began teaching at Sleepy Fox Farm in Atlanta while also catch-riding and showing. Since then, he has never lacked for horses to train or show, or clients to represent whether buying or selling. But what this friendly, soft-spoken gentleman really loves to do is teach. ?I have a straightforward philosophy,? John explains. ?I want to teach people to ride safely and with confidence, to help them overcome any fear issues that might exist. I just want my students to enjoy their horses, to grow with their horses.? ?Showing is fine,? he continues, ?and if you want lots of ribbons I?m happy to help you achieve that goal. But I?m equally happy to help people who have no such aspirations, who just want to learn to ride better. I?ve worked with dressage riders, eventers, foxhunters?not just hunter/ jumper riders.? John ventured out of Atlanta in 2006, buying his own place in Mansfield, near Covington, Ga. He called it Bridlewood Farm. So how did Aiken tempt him to move here? ?I?ve always loved Aiken,? says John. ?I?ve been showing here for 15 years, and I?ve known Rick and Cathy Cram since the Progressive Show Jumping shows were in Atlanta.? But as is so often the case, fate had a bit of a hand in things, as well. John?s social life began to revolve around Aiken. ?I met my partner, who lives in Aiken, in April of 2008,? John explains. ?So I started coming here more and more. The more I came here the more I liked it. It?s not just that it?s a great horse community. I also love the social and cultural atmosphere. Life that revolves around horses can be so isolating. Aiken has so many more levels. Great dining, cocktail parties, just a very special social life. Plus you can live in town, be in the horse district in five minutes, ride in the Hitchcock Woods or on the polo fields.? With all that to offer, Abbott decided that commuting to Aiken just wouldn?t do anymore. He moved here officially this past March and now operates his Bridlewood Farm out of The Stable On The Rail on Powderhouse Road. He ran a few very well-attended clinics at Full Gallop Farm, and began developing ongoing student relationships from there. ?I think word-of-mouth is a great way to build a client base,? John says. ?I go to their farms or they come to mine. It?s so easy to get everywhere in Aiken.?

Questions on the defense and attacking the Bears' 3-4
Ralph and John wrote, asking about how it is different attacking the 3-4 defense which California runs, different from the 4-3 look most other teams run right now.
Anyone that runs the option and has a strong inside running game lights up at the possibility of running against the 3-4 defense which is actually a "50" (5-2 look). The reason for this is that with the guards uncovered by a down lineman (instead covered by a linebacker aligned 3-5 yards off the ball), there are automatically larger running lanes inside. Probably the reason Cal is in this defense is that they have a wealth of linebackers and want to get as many on the field as they can. Teams that don't have four physical linemen upfront, need only three, although one of the linebackers will play over the tight end. The other outside linebacker, usually referred to as a defensive end, will be standing up and not in a stance. He can rush or drop, and it is hard sometimes to predict what he'll do, so he requires a longer read by the offensive tackle and running back as to what he's going to do. 3-4 teams will generally have either a real quick defensive lineman at nose guard, one who is going to be given the freedom to run around blocks and try to make the center miss him. If he's good, it will command some attention by either guard, who will have to help the center secure the nose guard. This opens up possibilities by the linebackers of running through the running lanes and making tackles at the line of scrimmage. With a 4-3, the inside linebackers would not have as easy access to these running lanes. On the other side, if the offense has good guards, (like Oregon) and a great center (like Oregon), then it is not so easy. Look for Cal to bring one its defensive ends on the line of scrimmage, over the weak-side tackle, so the defensive tackle can slide over a man and cover the weak-side guard. This helps the inside running game defense. A traditional way to attack this defense is to use two tight ends, which usually would force the defense to play both defensive ends over the tight ends, and then the nose and tackles would be over the center and offensive tackles on the line of scrimmage with the two inside linebackers off the ball over the guards. Now the offense has you right where they want you: man-to-man straight across the line of scrimmage. You can now run a simple dive or area play and if the defense gets blocked or at least caught up in the block, you have 5 yards and a running start at a big gain.
So watch and see if Cal tries to cover Unger and/or the offensive guards. Cal's best chance to stop Oregon's ground game from this defense is if the inside two linebackers can beat the blocks of the offensive guards. Watch also for the combo blocks by the offensive tackles-guards, or center-offensive guards, depending on which ones are covered. The 3-4 requires that you be more precise in your combo blocking because the next inside defender is not usually on the line of scrimmage, he is a linebacker. The 3-4 also has more varieties of pass rush and pass drop possibilities, but because there is four men rushing in a "normal" defense, one has to drop and the teaching of linebackers becomes more complicated by one player.
I had a couple of other questions about the improvement the defense has shown by "simplifying." I noticed that Rick Neuheisel, with a bye week to take some time and heal, said all the coaches were going to sit down, watch the film and ask the question "Are we asking too much of these players? What can we do to execute better? We may end up where we are now, but we're going to do this." This is exactly what the Oregon coaches did also and a bye week gives you that extra time to have those kind of conversations, because the conversations are not short, and can get complicated by player's injuries, those that have performed, and and those who haven't, for one reason or another. Basically, some of the things I've seen are true: the Ducks are playing much more physically on zone pass coverage: the corners, in a two-deep are doing better at getting their hands on the receivers and not allowing them easy, fast releases. The safeties have deepened up a bit, which gives them more time to make the right read. In the case of crossing receivers underneath before the ball is thrown, the linebackers and inside defenders are jamming them, or, as was the case several times against ASU, knocking them down (this is okay if they're in front of you and the ball has not been thrown). T
he other thing is that they have looked at all the keys the defenders have and have simplified them, that is, cut them in half. So, for example, if they are asking an outside defender to read the block of a tight end and, if he blocks, be the primary force defender, and still cover the pass if the tight end blocks and then releases deep, they now are having that defender play pass first and have another defender play the primary run while the outside defender would help out, but in a complimentary way, not primary. I made up this play to show you an example, so it would not give away information which might be "classified" but still give you a sense of how some of the changes have been made. Just go across the line of scrimmage, and cut the reads in half. Now, a defender will be expected to defend his gap, come hell or high water, and not be expected to cover two. Why does it come to this? It's not unusual for a team to get through a half season and find they must make adjustments based on their available talent (healthy) and the ability, and now, because it's the season and not fall camp or spring ball, you have seen what your players can actually execute against the best the Pac-10 can offer. It's not a big deal to make adjustments, or tweak what you do; it doesn't mean you shouldn't have been trying to do it that way, it just means that conditions change and good coaches are never going to be so stubborn that they won't go through this exercise. You can bet Pete Carroll and his coaches watched their win over Arizona and asked the same questions: "Are we doing the right things? Can we get better? Are we asking too much, or too little, of our players?
Another question came about regarding the 2006 loss to Cal in the Bay area, regarding the cadence or if the Ducks were telegraphing their run and pass plays. One thing back then, Dennis Dixon was telegraphing his passes, particularly seam routes, and his first was intercepted first drive of the game to get Cal rolling on offense. The Cal players might have been guessing by formation or other tendency Oregon had showed coming into the game. A linebacker, could, for an example, look at the stance of an offensive lineman, and by seeing how much weight he was putting on his hand, whether the play was run or pass (run: more weight; pass: less weight, because you've got to back up on pass blocking). I also think, that because of Tedford coming from Oregon and a couple other assistants, there was a feeling that some of Oregon's offensive signals were the same. That is less an issue as time goes on. I don't think it's an issue now. The worst thing you can do is guess what the play is and if you're the offense and have the feeling that the defense is catching on, you can make a dummy call and catch the defense off guard. An example of this would be to make a dummy call which convinces the defense you're going to run the ball and then do play action. One wrong guess and you can chalk up seven points, so good defenses will guess more with the defensive front or secondary coverage they call in anticipation of what they "think" the offense will do. An example of this was Michigan in their loss here at Autzen, when the defense "knew" what Michigan was going to try and do because their tendencies were almost automatic. (Typical for a Big-10 team that thinks it's tough).
Good questions, keep 'em coming!

What Dwells Within Us.....
"Freddy E" is beyond pain, he won't have to be accountable for this act, but for those left behind someone has to be held responsible because not knowing why he did this is simply one of the most painful feelings there is. Freddy E is the one to blame for all of this since it was his life that he decided to end.
I had a good friend take his life a few years ago. I was chilling with another buddy when I got the call. It felt like someone hit me over the head with a sledge hammer. I couldn't breathe, I didn't know if I should stand or sit and I felt nauseous. A numbness washed over me and I felt very light headed. I jetted from my boy's and just walked into the night air. He was gone and not all of the tears in the world would bring him back. For the rest of the week all I could do was think about him alone in his garage with the rope, the decision having already been made. Sliding it around his neck knowing there was no going back and then finally taking that final plunge. Apparently his fingers were broken because at the last second he changed his mind.
His kids arrived home from school to find their dad dead that day, their screams of utter terror awoke his brother who was in the same house with him asleep.
There was no note, no reason WHY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! No reason why, no F'ing reason!!!!!!!!!!!! But as the days passed I learned more of the friend I thought was so buoyant and outgoing. I learned that he was chronically depressed and withdrawn, most days. I learned that his mental state had deteriorated to such a degree that the raw effect his death would have on those he left behind had no meaning. I learned that what I was seeing was a facade hiding a broken and cowardly man.
The ones left behind are always the ones that suffer the worst. You can't save someone that really wants to kill them self because they will find a method and an opportunity. Society can't fix people that don't want to be fixed and it equally can't save someone if they choose the ultimate way out. People are deeper than they appear out in public and the key is asking questions and looking for what dwells within.

Civil Beat: Gay-straight alliance at schools across the stateUPDATED 7:08 AM HST Oct 09, 2013
Civil Beat engagement editor Gene Park joins us in study to talk about Kauai Pesticide use, high school gay-straight alliance, and the reinstatement of an arrested HPD officer.Video Transcript
President Obama's 2 C1 2 C1 It's been one week since President Obama's Affordable Health Care Law went into affect-- but Hawaii's Health Connector program STILL isn't up to speed. Hawaii lawmakers plan to address the issue during an all-day hearing at the state capitol today--- The state's insurance exchange website isn't allowing insurance companies to sell any of their plans... And people looking for health insurance can't see what options are available. The Hawaii Health Connector Executive among those expected to testify. Joining us in studio this morning is Civil Beat engagement editor, Gene Park. As the Legiar prepares f t. 28 ecial session to decide rriage equality, vocat pe this will ad to safer and more lerate learning vironments r udents, particularly i gh school. There are about 30 Gay-Straight liances in schools across the state, with out 500 members. rriton High School s beeaoted leader tolerancend ceptance. Mara uality proponents hope eegalization of me-sex marriage would courage more youth to me out earlier in life. ponents like the Hawaii ristian Coalition say it would create unhealthy enviroessaying that ports of buli LGBT students are inflated d at the special session uld only serve a few. itusut, a recent llup svey showed 5 rcent of Hawaii identifyinthemselves as BT, second in the tion only to Washington, D. In 2009, two Honulu police officers were arrested on drug charges in Las Vegas involving marijuana. Officers Shayne Souza and Kevin Fujioka were eventually convicted on charges stemming from the incident but only Souza lost his job. Fujioka was initially fired by the Honolulu Police Department. But he was recently reinstated after Hawaii's police union pushed back against his termination. But in Hawaii, most of the disciplinary process for officers has been kept off limits to the public since 1995, when the police union convinced lawmakers to shield officers from public scrutiny. It's difficult for the public to examine the facts and circumstances behind police misconduct and whether it's being dealt with effectively and fairly. The lack of public disclosure allows SHOPO to operate out of public sight and allows arbitrators who have varying degrees of tolerance for police misconduct to make decisions unchecked. ) Legislative action that would increase Kauai's oversight of pesticide use is delayed after Kauai Mayor Bernard Carvalho testified yesterday that the county lacks the money and staff to implement the far-reaching measure. He said he needs about $1.3 million by July next year. The Kauai mayor said he would be seeking help from the state, which council members for its lax oversight. But Carvalho feels confident the county's needs would be met after he recently had a meeting with Gov. Neil Abercrombie and officials with the Department of Agriculture. This angered backers of the bill, who feel confident that it could still pass on Tuesday with enough council support to fend off the mayor's possible veto. Already people are camping out at the Kaui County Building ahead of Tuesday's council meeting.

Poor women should be given federal assistance for child care so they can "have the dignity of work" said Mitt Romney, belying the outrage his campaign spent the last part of the week generating and showing, clearly, that for Republicans there is really only one acceptable stay-at-home mom: the kind supported by a wealthy husband.
The remarks were made in January and unearthed by MSNBC's "Up with Chris Hayes" and broadcast during the 8 a.m. hour of his show on Sunday.
After Hilary Rosen suggested that Ann Romney wasn't the best person to explain the financial pressures most working women face because she has not "worked a day in her life" the Romney camp saw an opening and ran with it, hoping to re-frame the debate as an attack on mothers by the left. "I made a choice to stay home and raise five boys. Believe me, it was hard work," Romney said on Twitter.
Of course Ann Romney had a choice: her husband has millions to support her and their large family. And that is great, but not all women have that choice and as her husband made clear, not all women are entitled to a choice to begin with. Poor women should be required to work outside the home to receive Temporary Assistance for Needy Families benefits. "[E]ven if you have a child 2 years of age, you need to go to work," Romney said of moms on TANF.
Attacking poor single moms is nothing new for Romney. As governor of Massachusetts he increased the amount of time women on welfare were required to work. "I wanted to increase the work requirement," said Romney. "I said, for instance, that even if you have a child 2 years of age, you need to go to work. And people said, 'Well that's heartless.' And I said, 'No, no, I'm willing to spend more giving day care to allow those parents to go back to work. It'll cost the state more providing that daycare, but I want the individuals to have the dignity of work.'"
Romney's comments simply illustrate the fundamental narrative driving this latest iteration of the mommy wars: motherhood and parenting are not truly valued by the right unless they fit into the very narrow confines of christian domesticity. And poor single mothers, are by this logic, inherently unchristian and non-domestic, not to be trusted absent the close oversight of a husband or lawmakers.

And actually many rich people were once very poor themselves..I know immigrants who came to our country without a penny and became millionaires...and guess what? They did it through hard work and intelligence and careful money management. They did not do it sitting home, jobless, having babies our of wedlock, without any ideas on how to create a business or jobs or wealth of any kind and waiting for their next govt check to arrive...these people are just parasites and obama wants to keep feeding the useless members of our society.... Millionaires are a hell of a lot smarter then most people think. They have been the ones to create create jobs for these poor needy woman with kids to feed ...do you think some loser in section 8 housing, living off welfare created any jobs for anyone , let alone the poor working moms???
Whoever wrote this article is a total nit picking misinformed idiot who looks at small words rather then the big picture. Look at what Obama has done in the four years since he has been president. NOTHING!!!! Gas prices should have been lower by now, people should be out working decent jobs...Obama is all TALK. He pretends to be able to relate to all the working class, single, or needy people and yet like Romney he also has millions of dollars to support his family and hire a nanny, etc...do you retards honestly think that Michelle Obama has to go out and work??? She does jack shit and doesnt have to work a day in her life either..At least Romney wants to let some of his wealth trickle down to the poor...Instead of create a class warfare communist society like Obama has created. Romney is less talk and more action and that is what America needs in a failing economy, people may not agree with everything he says and they don't have to , but if you cared to read a book about his achievements then maybe you would see what an incredibly smart man he is. He won't squander this nations wealth like Obama plans to...Where the he'll are the "changes" Obama promises...hell with y'all I'm voting for Romney and like him I will also be rich and successful...not poor like Obama wishes us all to be stuck at home, jobless and waiting for the next welfare check to arrive while all our utilities are shut off and we can't even get to work because our gas tanks are on Empty.
And the madness continues. Rich people have no idea how hard the poorer people have to work just to survive. I believe they should have to live a entire year on minimum wage, without assistants, before complaining about the poor.
A woman with MS and breast cancer getting help around the house? What Would Michelle Obama Do?
The claim that Rosen's comments were sexist or anti-woman in any way is a transparently cynical ploy to stir up that faux outrage that seems to power the contemporary GOP. In context, what Rosen said is absolutely true: Anne Romney has never worked a day in her life, work being having a wage-earning job. While Mrs. Romney conceivably spent her childrens' youth ordering their nannies and maids around, many mothers in the US have had to raise children AND have actual jobs AND take care of their own housework. Remind me how she's "in touch"?
wow, such stupidity, it is amazing. It is so stupid, that my intelligent female brain just can't come up with the right words. Wow, so we the people, oh wait, are we still the people? or are we the peons and they the royalty?
A 30 year old waitress working 2 jobs at minimum wage while her 2 year old child spends 12 hours a day at daycare... now that's what I call dignity.
"As governor of Massachusetts he increased the amount of time women on welfare were required to work. I wanted to increase the work requirement, said Romney. I said, for instance, that even if you have a child 2 years of age, you need to go to work. And people said, Well thats heartless. And I said, No, no, Im willing to spend more giving day care to allow those parents to go back to work. Itll cost the state more providing that daycare, but I want the individuals to have the dignity of work."
There is so much fundamentally wrong with this paragraph that it makes my head spin. How have we gotten so f*cked up that we are prioritizing day cares over mothers? How have we gotten to the point in North America that the ruling classes see children and families as inconveniences to the work force? What is the priority? If we decide to have children, if we bring them into the world... they should be our priority. They are human beings, who are hugely impacted by everything we do and don't do in regards to raising them..who will then go on to impact countless other elements in the world baised on how we raise them. Your office...is an office. It does not register that you are spending the majority of your life slaving away at it. It will not notice if you stop visiting. Why is parenting and motherhood so undervalued? The "dignity of work"??? what about the dignity of raising the children?? So to M.R. being a stay at h
Linda M.-Well stated!
Well Frank, being a man, we'll take your word for it whether women's rights are being abrogated and whether their concerns are worthy. That is basically the point of the whole dialogue here, rights for BOTH Rep or Dem. women. However, rich women do not understand the trials and tribulations of poor women be they of either party. Those who are saying poor women need the dignity of work are primarily Republicans. Why, because they tend to have the $$$. I am not aware of many Democrats who are trying to enforce mandatory transvaginal ultrasounds and other assaults on women of EITHER party, hence this is not about whether Dem women suffer more than Rep women. When both are poor, they suffer the same.

Catholic youth pray for peace in Holy Land
Catholic World News - January 30, 2012
Young people from 2,500 cities pledged to spend some time in prayer or Eucharistic adoration on January 29 for the intention of peace in the Holy Land. The initiative was promoted by associations of Catholic youth with the support of Church authorities in Rome and the Holy Land.
"The first thing that we as Christians could and should do is refer all of our aims for peace to Jesus, to God," said Father Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the Custos of the Holy Land.
"Young people are and can be a resource for peace," added Cardinal Peter Turkson, president of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, in a message for the event. "I thank you for showing the world the active, beautiful and young face of the Church of Christ."

(excluding tax measures)
Budget 2012 Measures For Households
Budget 2012 sets out the directions that the Government has embarked on to build an inclusive society and a stronger Singapore, through two strategies of Sustaining Economic Growth, and Building a Fair and Inclusive Society. Budget 2012 marks a significant step up in our support for three key groups of Singaporeans – the elderly, disabled and low-income.
This adds to existing measures that the Government had introduced over the past five years to mitigate income inequalities and strengthen the social safety net, such as the introduction of Workfare, Comcare and the 'Grow and Share' package. Read about past budget measures here.
This calculator allows you to estimate the total amount you and your household can receive through the GST Voucher and Workfare Income Supplement (WIS) scheme in 2012 (Jan – Dec '12).
Depending on your eligibility, you may receive the following:
How do I use the calculator?
To use it, fill in your residence type, the number of people in your household and their particulars, to get an estimate of what your household may receive through the GST Voucher and Workfare. When using the calculator, do note that the estimate and actual amount you and your household receive may differ, as several assumptions on household and work criteria have been made.
The Government will be sending you notifications to inform you of the actual amount of GST Voucher and Workfare payments you will receive in 2012.
Revision to Personal Income Tax Schedule
To reduce taxes further for middle and upper middle income taxpayers, the personal income tax schedule has been restructured with effect from YA 2012 to make it more progressive.
