What is Sociology? +
Sociology is about people and their patterns; it seeks to understand and account for the complexities of human interaction and patterns of social life. It focuses on relations among people, groups, organizations, classes, cultures, and society. Sociology scientifically explores and analyzes issues vital to our personal lives, our communities, our society, and the world. In short, it involves all aspects of human experience and activity. Almost any aspect of how human beings gather together in groups, organizations, and societies can be studied within sociology.
The study of sociology provides fascinating and distinctive perspectives on the social world. The field also offers a range of research techniques that can be applied to virtually any aspect of social life: crime and delinquency, family dynamics, corporate downsizing, how people express emotions, welfare or education reform, or global issues of peace and war. Because sociology addresses the most challenging issues of our time, it is a rapidly expanding field with broad implications.

A Weapon of Choice-Experiments with a Replica Irish Early Bronze Age Halberd
O'Flaherty, Ronan, Antiquity
The halberd, so often presented as mysterious and enigmatic, is in fact a reasonably common artefact of the Early Bronze Age in Europe. Just over 600 examples are known, with significant concentrations in Ireland, Central Europe and Iberia, and with the majority dating to the period between 2300 BC and 1900 BC (O'Flaherty 2002; Schumacher 2002; Brandherm 2003; 2004).
Archaeologists have tended to regard halberds as non-utilitarian, in the case of the Irish examples pointing to a perceived weakness in the hafting technique, as well as a presumed clumsiness in the hand (O Riordain 1937: 241; Macalister 1949: 132-34; Herity & Eogan 1977: 137; O'Kelly 1989: 164-65; Mallory & McNeill 1991: 102; Wadddl 1991: 70; 1998: 129-31). In order to test this assumption, it was decided to design and construct a replica halberd and test its effectiveness in a practical trial.
This paper is divided in two parts. The first part describes the results of the trials, while in the second part the nature of combat in the Early Bronze Age and the role of the halberd are reconsidered.
Making and using a replica halberd
A full account of the design and construction of the replica is published elsewhere (O'Flaherty et al. 2002). However, for the purposes of this paper, suffice it to say that the blade is a Cotton type (Harbison 1969: 41-5), which is the most common Irish type. It is not a direct copy of any particular blade, but instead its dimensions have been created from a careful analysis, in the hand, of some 69 Cotton type halberds, or about 74 per cent of the total known population. It is cast from arsenical copper, the usual metal of the Irish halberds. The shaft is of oak, as was that found with the halberd from Carn, Co. Mayo, the only hafted example to survive intact (Raftery 1942). One other halberd, from Almamacken, Co. Armagh was hafted when found, but the shaft disintegrated on recovery (Flanagan 1966).
The proportions of the haft-head are based on careful measurements of rivets surviving in situ on Irish halberds, while the dimensions of the shaft are based on assumptions drawn from a combination of sources, including the Carn halberd, rock-art depictions and the metal-shafted halberds of Central Europe. Again, for more details see O'Flaherty et al. 2002.
The dimensions of the finished replica (Figure 1) are as follows:
* Shaft length: 1220mm
* Shaft thickness: 24mm
* Shaft width: 33mm
* Shaft head: 14mm top, narrowing to 6mm at back.
* Length of blade: 250mm
* Thickness of blade: 9mm
* Rivet lengths: uppermost--20mm, central--22mm, lowermost--22mm
* Rivet head diameters: 11.5-12mm
* Total weight: 1.5kg
There is evidence that some Bronze Age halberds from Ireland, at least, received post-casting treatment in the form of annealing, cold-hammering and sharpening (Allen et al. 1970: 106-14). However, to avoid argument about the appropriate level of post-casting treatment and its implications for the performance of the blade during trials, no such treatment was applied to the replica blade. Furthermore (though in this case unintentionally) the replica blade has an arsenic content of just 0.2 per cent, resulting in a softer metal than that used in the prehistoric blades. In the circumstances, we can only conclude that however well the replica performed under trial, an actual Bronze Age halberd would have performed better.
Practical trial
For a variety of reasons, which are discussed later, the Irish halberd seems best designed for impact on bone rather than muscle. To be fatal, the target would most likely be the skull, although other areas of the body (notably the rib-cage) would also be likely candidates. Brandherm (2003) suggests that the throat may also have been a target. In the event, it was decided to test the effectiveness of the halberd against the mass of bone in the skull using sheep-heads, which provide the nearest readily available equivalent to a human skull (Figure 2). …

This is very pretty! =3 You used many different techniques, but they all fit into the same style! The pastel colours on the girl, the textures on the flowers, the difference-like colours of the designs streaming out from behind her, and the neutral + red background all highilight different things. The white seems a bit bright to me, though, and not all the elements seem to quite fit together as well as they might in a piece that shares a colour scheme throughout. However, the way you've done it makes it seem almost like a story going through different phases, which is amazing. <3

From the Affordable Care Act to Enforcement of the HIPAA Omibus Final Rule, last year was a monumental, if not confounding year for the health care industry compliance officers. Many hope 2014 is a smoother year and less "dizzying," according to a new report that snapshots their wishes for the coming year.
According to idexpertscorp.com, in 2013, there were over 100 HIPAA privacy breaches affecting 500 or more individuals reported to the Office for Civil Rights. The largest of the breach was at Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield where a pair of laptops containing information for over 840,000 individuals was stolen. OCR also investigated at least dozens of organizations of potential violations under HIPAA.

I was actually thinking you don't need the lines. I like the idea of making the product shot into something else and making it the payoff to the idea. Not sure I've seen that before.
Beautiful illustrations. Nice, simple ads that get across the message.
That case, the first line has to be something like: "Let us all kick the living crap out of that arrogant"
Boring ads, the three of them. They aren´t bad, but these are 90´s
yep. And You are so modern in this kind of talking.
I don't think they're boring, actually. They're just not adequate to the service that is being advertised. Which is not less important, by the way.
They're not specific, in other words.
Good idea, bad art, for metal effect you should take help from 3d people
Nice campaign. Think the copy reads fine.
"stay low, move fast"
Doin' it for the points
It´s true the item it´s cool, but it does not need the copy.

GMC moving investments away from fossil fuel companiesMay 14,2013By Lucia Suarez
POULTNEY — Green Mountain College joins a growing movement of colleges and universities that are moving their investments away from fossil fuel companies.
Last Friday, the college's Board of Trustees approved to divest it's endowment from 200 publicly-trade companies which hold most of the world's known coal, oil and gas reserves. The decision, announced Tuesday, aligns the college with its strategic plan "Sustainability2020" that commits the college to socially responsible investments.
"We see this as another step in an ongoing effort to connect our investment decisions with our ideals," said college President Paul Fonteyn, in a statement.
"Investing endowment funds on the basis of social, economic and environmental criteria is one of the ways Green Mountain College expresses its values."
With this decision, GMC becomes the second higher education institution in Vermont to divest from fossil fuels. Earlier this year, the board of trustees at Sterling College in Craftsbury Commons voted to divest its endowment from fossil fuel companies.
Currently, divestment is under consideration at Middlebury College.MORE IN This Just InMANCHESTER, N.H. Full StoryMONTPELIER Teen advocates will march to the Vermont State House in Montpelier this week as part... Full Story

You can assess the appropriateness of your home's proportions by asking yourself the following questions. If you answer yes to five or more, your house is suffering from a case of "Too Bigness."
■ Are any living areas in the house taller than they are wide?
■ Do any spaces feel comfortable only when the house is full of people?
■ When you are in the kitchen, do you have to shout to be heard in the adjacent family room?
■ Is your house so large that you can coexist with other household members without running into them?
■ Are any spaces particularly echoey?
■ Are any spaces rarely used? Is there no need to repurpose these spaces because there's already plenty of room in the house?
■ Does the house look huge from any exterior angle?
■ Do you sometimes feel as though you are rattling around in the house—that there's too much space and not enough of a sense of place in any of it?
■ Do you sometimes wander around the house looking for a comfortable place to sit and read or have a cup of coffee?
■ Do you have any rooms that are more than 16 feet tall?
■ Do guests stepping into your foyer or living room for the first time look upward and say, "Wow"? (This is not always an indication of approval, just awe.)

Respond to Review of Vertical Diner
by SunnySusi
Review: This is a great place for vegan comfort food! I live about 4 hours away in the middle of rural cattle country in Wyoming, and this is my default restaurant for grabbing a bite to eat when I go to Salt Lake. They make their own sausage, which is very good. I love the Phili Cheese Sandwich with their sausage and cheese sauce made from nutritional yeast. Other things I like on the menu are some of the savory breakfast dishes, including scrambled tofu. I love their food, and the mashed potatoes are awesome, although as one person remarked, they add $3 to the price for the side of mashed potatoes. If I stick to the main dish, then the prices are extremely reasonable -- most of my favorites meals are about $8.

This is game is hilarious! The visuals are excellent and I it was histarical when he jumped out the window. I don't know what you were thinking when you made this but we need more games like this! I thought I was going to kill myself laughing at the ending.
Thanks for the kind words! I'll be sure to make more.

Great message though.

A good 5-minute passer with enough hidden achievements to encourage replayability. I mean like, we can all endure something like this for them, right? Never thought that killing myself from an office building would be this dull.
Even so, to be able to kill the annoying electric-scooter-riding boss was completely euphoric. Have an extra star.

Danger close is a counter to blast shield with blast shield being a counter to regular explosives. So you basically want blast shield to have no counter. Let's not if you want gameplay like that blops 2 is still running they are even getting new DLC
Well, considering Blast Shield promotes using your gun, yeah.
Why should a counter have a counter in the first place? Why does everything need a counter? Should there be both perks and anti perks? Because that is what you are driving at.
What does using your gun have anything to do with why blast shield and danger close are in the game? Blast shield in blops was retarded and had no counter you ate explosives and laughed about it now blast shield has a counter and it's a bad idea and should be removed. Why don't you guys just get over it you died from a explosive what's the difference than being shot you still died and then re spawned they still got a kill and moved on.
i just run blast shield and danger close on a class with tubes for when i come across someone spamming explosives.fight fire with fire
edit: ment to reply to op
If only Blast Shield is in the game, the explosives wont kill you if you equip it. Therefore, the player who used the explosive, if they want the kill, has to go into the location or find an angle where they can see you to finish you off with their gun. Danger Close completely overriding Blast Shield means people can just spam explosives.
And why the hell does everything need a counter, even the COUNTERS? Is the Call of Duty: The Counter Perk Wars? I thought people wanted gun on gun action in an FPS, well f*** me sideways I guess.
Its a 4 point perk get over it it's in the game and it works. Honestly you sound like someone who got blown out from camping a window with BS on and now feels the game should be changed to cater to them.
Yes, I am pretty sure that people love being blown up by explosives so much, its not like there was huge outcry about SnD/R being ruined by RS/C4/DC - no, people love explosives especially when they are pocket nukes. People complained and it got changed, same principle applies here.
Also, since we're reaching about playstyles, you sound butthurt that someone wearing Flak Jacket in Blops (1 or 2) was resistant to your no skill explosive spam and thinks the game should cater to you.
You are acting like a sheeple that thinks we should be honored that IW has graced us with CoD:Ghosts, that IW can do no wrong because they are the almighty devs, and if you don't like something, you should leave.
Blastshield cancels it out. But it makes the C4 like a regular C4. Not an op C4.
there's a counter for everything in the game that is overpowered. It came with the $0.99 micro dlc transaction as a perk.
It's called the ...
DON'T PLAY THE EFFING GAME perk.
Danger Close in this game should increase damage and blast radius in my opinion. If explosives did their job Danger Close would be worth four points unfortunately they don't so Danger Close should be worth two points.

Restaurant: Miss P's Train Station
Address: 4274 Mother Lode Drive in Shingle Springs
Phone: 530-677-6287
Hours: Open from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. seven days a week
Did you know that the first diner was a horse-drawn wagon that served hot food to the employees of the Providence Journal newspaper in Rhode Island?
Did you know that a fellow by the name of Walter Scott, an employee of the newspaper, looking to supplement his income started by selling cold sandwiches and hot coffee to his fellow pressmen from baskets he prepared at home?
The diner, an American icon borne out of necessity and need, has survived and thrived ever since Scott opened his doors in 1872.
Miss P's Train Station, 4274 Mother Lode Drive in Shingle Springs, is one of those out-of-the-way places that, once you discover it, becomes an obsession in the best possible sense. It may not have the outward look of what most consider a typical "diner" (stainless steel exterior shaped like a bullet, etc), but the restaurant's soul simply oozes comfort.
The menu boasts more than 100 items ranging from the expected (biscuits and gravy, various omelets, cold and hot sandwiches and a wide variety of burgers) to the absolutely unique (croissant sandwich, Texas toast and chicken cordon bleu sandwich). It would take a person years to work their way through this fantastically varied menu.
I have passed the Train Station many times before and last week I decided that it was about dang time I stopped to sample its menu.
A coworker by the name of Squeaky accompanied me this time and she was in the mood for some breakfast.
When we arrived the place was just electric. Waitresses were taking orders, bringing bulging plates of delicious dishes to the starving masses, refilling coffees and excitedly chatting with the customers about their day.
I got the feeling that we were the only "newbies" there and that all the other patrons had their very own personal tables and had been coming there for eons.
Our waitress made us feel like we were part of the family instantly and within just a few minutes of taking our orders brought back our food with a smile and a wink that seemed to say, "I just know you're going to love this."
Does anyone remember the television sitcom, Alice? The waitresses are like that, only no one suggested I kiss my grits. Every employee I encountered was friendly, knowledgeable, comfortable and happy to be working there.
Squeaky loved her breakfast: two eggs perfectly cooked, generous portion of steaming country potatoes (complete with green peppers, onions and some "secret spices"), toast and coffee. She remarked that the potatoes, which are usually just an accompaniment to the eggs, were stars in their own right.
I love breakfast and when I get to have it during the week, which is rarely, I usually splurge with the two eggs, potatoes, bacon (or sausage, depending), and toast and jam. I am a bit of a stickler when it comes to my eggs, which I always order over easy, and the preparation of the perfect sample, as most cooks will tell you, is anything but.
Here they got it exactly right. Everything was delicious but the real pleasure here is taking the time out of your day to sit down, read the paper, talk to your neighbor and just "be."
I could feel the stress melt away and the pounds come on, and on this occasion I was absolutely OK with that.
Miss P's Train Station, 4274 Mother Lode Drive in Shingle Springs, is open from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. seven days a week and the phone number is 530-677-6287.

WR staff predictions: Cal
There is a considerable amount of intrigue for Northwestern's opener on Saturday night at Cal.
The Bears are coming off of a 3-9 season, but with a new coach (former Lousiana Tech head man Sonny Dykes), a new quarterback (true freshman Jared Goff) and a new system (the wide open BearRaid) in place, there is quite a bit of mystery surrounding this team. Plus, Big Ten teams traditionally do not fare well in night games in the Pacific time zone, so the 9:30 p.m. Central time kickoff time has given Northwestern fans angst.
Will a week of 9 p.m. practices pay dividends for the Wildcats? Did they get enough Cat naps before game time? Will the secondary hold up against an up-tempo attack that wants to snap the ball every eight seconds and throw the ball all over the stadium?
WildcatReport's intrepid staff has the answers right here.
Northwestern wins if it can limit Cal's big plays. The Wildcats are the better team, and they should dominate time of possession. The only way the Bears can keep up is if Brendan Bigelow breaks a few big runs. Shut him down, and the Cats will be fine.
Northwestern loses if they don't adjust early. There's a lot of uncertainty about how the Cal offense will look, but Northwestern must quickly adapt to whatever looks it is given. Falling behind by a couple scores early would mean trouble for the Cats.
The bottom line Northwestern will struggle on its first few possessions and Cal will bust a big play for an early lead. This won't last, however, as Northwestern's consistent ground attack will prove too much for the Bears' D, and Goff will throw a couple killer interceptions. Northwestern should pull away in the second half.
Prediction Northwestern 38 Cal 20
Northwestern wins if they convert at a high clip on third down in the first half. They will wear down the Golden Bears in the second half if they establish drives into Cal territory early on.
Northwestern loses if Goff protects the ball. Northwestern remarkably forced 1.4 more turnovers per game on the road last season -- and they were absolutely necessary in each win at those hostile environments.
The bottom line: Cal is transitioning to a no-huddle offense with a true freshman quarterback at the helm. NU's D has seen plenty of up-tempo offense from their own experienced quarterback duo and will stifle Dykes' spread.
Prediction: Northwestern 30 Cal 16
Northwestern wins if they can expose the Cal line and get to Goff. They don't necessarily need to get a certain number of sacks, but they need to make him uncomfortable.
Northwestern loses if the defense allows big plays. It's been an emphasis of the secondary to prevent them, and this will be a major test.
The bottom line: The Northwestern offense is too potent. Even if the fast-paced Cal offense pleasantly surprises its fans, Venric Mark & Co. will be too much for them to handle.
Prediction Northwestern 34 Cal 18
Northwestern wins if the defense keeps Cal from getting its act together on offense.
Northwestern loses if Kain Colter and Trevor Siemian can't find their rhythm.
The bottom line: It's really all about Northwestern getting re-acclimated to regular-season games. Cal tries to get used to a new coach and find some sort of comfort with his plans.
Prediction Northwestern 38 Cal 14
Northwestern wins if it plays its game. The Cats are simply the better team in this matchup and should take care of business on both sides of the ball.
Northwestern loses if the secondary allows Goff to hit some big plays over the top and it turns into a Wild West Shootout.
The bottom line: The Bears have talent, but with a new coach and a true freshman QB, facing a Northwestern team coming off of a 10-win season is a tough draw for the opener -- even if it is in Berkeley. The late kickoff can't help them that much against a team that has made adjusting to a time change an art form.
Prediction: Northwestern 34 Cal 23

Robbie Versus The Crohn by B2thecWatch
©2009-2016 B2thec
I made this for a co-worker who is recuperating from having surgery for his Crohn's disease. I did sketch out the first 10 pages of the actual comic itself but got too lazy and decided to just go with the cover instead.
Ah man this made me smile and laugh and feel better. First time I saw this made was pretty early on my own diagnosis. This helped more than you could imagine. I hope your friend is better by now.
That's awesome! ^_^ I love the poses and the look.
Thanks. It was hard to get that Chrohn monster to sit still long enough to draw him. He couldn't wait to destroy the city.
Haha, you gotta love this!! I have Crohn's and am 13 years old. I wish Crohns was a human...or physical creature so I could beat the living crap out of it
Nice job, it made my day
Nice job, it made my day
awesome! I hope your friend feels better.
very awesome, and I hope you're friend does well. I know how that feels.
I think its great! He will definitely love it!
Thanks duderino. I don't think he likes Crohn's Disease though. I don't know. You do lose a lot of weight because of it. He did need to work on getting back his hour glass figure.
Thats awesome

Attucks Jazz Series
February 20: Clairdee, vocals - Acclaimed for her inventive artistry and magnetic stage presence, Clairdee's lustrous voice and soulful delivery hearkens back to a time when jazz, pop, and rhythm and blues often blended seamlessly together. Clairdee is aware of the meaning and feeling behind every phrase — all of which she communicates with winning sincerity and warmth — set to state of the art arrangements that are equally smart and entertaining.
March 5: Chuck Redd, vibes - Chuck Redd is an accomplished performer on both drums and vibraphone. Chuck began performing and recording internationally when he joined the Charlie Byrd Trio in 1980 at the age of 21. Later, while appearing in New York with Torme, Ira Gitler of Jazz Times said: "Redd's vibes were equally notable for vigor and melodiousness."
April 2: John Fedchock, trombone - An in-demand performer and writer in New York City for over twenty years, John Fedchock's multifaceted talents have led him to become one of NYC's premiere jazz artists. Fedchock was Trombone Chair for the International Association For Jazz Education Resource Team and a member of the board of advisors for the International Trombone Association, and is presently trombone representative for the Jazz Education Network's Expert Team.

omfg.... cant wait to buy the move. im waiting for it since i saw the video about this and that sony made coop with nintendo to bring some nice wii games to the ps3.
i hope this will come to the christmas time.
bah i love it already
I'm not sure if it does include the motion sub-controller. I've read over the release notes and it just say Playstation Move and nothing about the Move subcontroller. But I hope it does include it!
not bad at all, let's see is better than the nitendo wii?
looks nice but this seriously limits the number of players.
1 Move + 1 Nunchuck = 2 of the 7 Bluetooth devices
So 3 players max, which is why they didn't show a 4th. Even less if you have to have a SIXAXIS or DUALSHOCK3 Paired too. That would make 3 devices per player. Hopefully they can find a way to overcome the Bluetooth 7 limitation because the more accesories they release the less we can add.
Worse case scenario (unrealistic):
1 Move + 1 Nunchuck + 1 DualShock3 + 1 Wireless Keypard = 4 for 1 player.
It does say in the key features bit: o Simultaneously use up to four motion controllers with a PS3 system
however, it's unclear if that means just four of the move controllers and not including the sub-controller.
so best case scenario is three players with move controller and sub, and one player with just move controller.
worst case is two players with both move and sub controllers.
hmm i really want to know what nintendo finds about this..
now lets wait for zelda on the ps3
The press release implies that the sub-controller is intended for a subset of games. I expect most games will be fine with just the 'Move'. Why would someone need to have the DS3 still connected? They specifically state that all of the DS3 controls will be on the Move + sub-controller. What games are still available that allow 4 players at the same time? It's hard enough trying to find games that allow 2 players to play together...

The rugs that we have in our homes have a rich past of traditions and craftsmanship. That is why certain carpets and contemporary rugs in the market today still cost as much as they were first made hundreds and even thousands of years ago. It all began with weaving. Simple mats, baskets and fruit containers were made of leaves, stalks, reeds and grasses and other natural materials found in the surroundings. By origin the 'rugs' that were used in homes were probably rough dried skins of hunted animals used as floor coverings in the homes of prehistoric hunters. Animal hide that had piles and fur made the flooring of the caves where they live a more habitable and warm. Mist likely spread all throughout the area. And since humans become more intelligent and progressive, other materials were discovered. Skilled hands bounded these new materials and form object which serves value to their everyday life. Like food baskets for fruits and other items.
Weaving is primarily the root of rug making. Historical and archaeological evidence revealed that weaving and the existence of rugs in many ancient civilizations like those in Mesopotamia (Iran) , Mayans and Incas as far back as 7000 and 8000 B.C. In other continents where progress and developments flourished like those in Egypt and Persia , wool from sheep, goat and other animals and of course cotton were utilized and the technology were developed during the third millennium B.C.E. The orient land also discovered such skills. The cradle of Asian civilization: China were also crucial to the proliferation and development of the textile industry. In Mongolia and the high regions in the Himalayans nomadic herders were among the first to develop and weave wool rugs.
The technique of weaving and rug making developed in many other parts of the world in Europe, and even in some parts of the Americas as far back as 5500 B.C.E. Weavers began to use natural colors. Discovering the magic of dyes and colored pigment they began experimenting blending colored patterns. Chinas greatest contribution to mankind, the discovery of silk made the possibility of including the ornate, elaborate embroidery onto rugs. Turkey and Mongolia and others contributed to the development of more sophisticated looms and weaving techniques has turned the simple handicraft skill of rug-making from necessity to art form.

Press release - DC008(2012)
Data Protection Day – 28 January
Safeguarding privacy: A global challenge requires a global response
Strasbourg, 26.01.2012 – On the eve of "Data Protection Day", the Council of Europe is holding
on 27 January a consultation with representatives of the private sector and civil society to discuss its latest proposals to modernise the Data Protection Convention.
"Privacy has probably never been as fragile as it is today. Enormous amounts of personal data are processed and flow almost instantly across borders. The challenge is global, and so must be the response. Our convention is the only binding data protection treaty with real international reach. We aim to bring together a community of nations that share common data protection principles and practices", said Council of Europe Secretary General Thorbjørn Jagland.
"We need greater transparency to ensure that users are informed of what is happening with their data, and that they can actually consent - or not - to it being processed. Public or private entities must be accountable for the personal data they process. The legal framework we create has to be flexible yet robust, so it does not hamper innovation, and strikes a fair balance between the free flow of data and the need for protection of individuals", he added.
The consultation is taking place in Brussels during the session "Modernising Convention 108 in the Face of the IT Revolution" at the 5th International Computer, Privacy and Data Protection Conference.
The Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data ("Convention 108") and its additional protocol have been the model for data protection legislation in Europe and beyond since 1981 and served as a basis for the 1995 EU Directive.
The modernisation of the treaty aims to address challenges for privacy resulting from the use of new information technologies and to strengthen the convention's follow-up mechanism. In an initial consultation process carried out in 2011 to identify areas of the treaty that need to be updated, there was a large consensus on:
§ maintaining the convention's provisions technologically neutral and at principle-level
§ strengthening the convention's follow-up mechanism
§ realising the convention's potential as a universal standard while maintaining coherence with the EU's legal framework
The proposals currently discussed deal with the need for the data processed to be strictly proportional to the purposes, the accountability of data controllers and processors, privacy by design, the obligation to declare security breaches, transparency of the processing, and additional safeguards for the data subject such as the right of access to the origin of data. Transborder data flows are another essential aspect of the modernisation process.
The proposed modernised text is available at www.coe.int/dataprotection.

You are in Orlando for a night out with friends or family. Perhaps you live here. Perhaps you are on vacation. You spend some time at Universal Studios. Then you go to a nightclub or two. You visit the Hard Rock Cafe, the House of Blues or some other club on the CityWalk or elsewhere. You have a few drinks. Perhaps you have one too many.
What Is Trespassing?
Criminal trespass is committed when a person enters a property when the person knows he or she does not have the right to enter. It is also considered criminal trespass if you have stayed on the property after learning that you have no legal right to be there.
This crime can be committed on either public or private property. It is important to note that you do not need a verbal warning that the property is off limits.
Refusing to leave or returning after you have been told to leave is also criminal trespassing. For example, you don't commit any crimes, but you end up getting kicked out of a club. Later, you enter the same club, maybe by mistake or to gather your family and friends. You end up getting arrested and charged with trespass without warning because you entered an establishment that you had been kicked out of. This is a surprisingly common scenario.
Penalties For Trespass Charges
The types of consequences you are facing on a trespassing charge depends on where you were allegedly trespassing. Whether it was on property, on school grounds, in a structure or in a conveyance, you may be facing some of the below types of penalties. The circumstances surrounding your alleged trespassing may also enable the prosecutors to enhance the charges, leaving you facing more serious penalties:
Second-degree misdemeanor:
- Jail: Up to 60 days
- Probation: Up to six months
- Fines: Up to $500
First-degree misdemeanor:
- Jail: Up to 12 months
- Probation: Up to 12 months
- Fines: Up to $1,00
Third-degree felony:
- Jail: Up to five years
- Probation: Up to five years
- Fines: Up to $5,000
Why Were You Charged With Trespass?
Of course, re-entering a bar or nightclub after you have been kicked out is not the only path to being charged with trespass without warning. Regardless of why you were charged with this crime, you can turn to our law firm for help.

Judy Schachter on 3/31/2015 8:00:52 AM
Review: V-C's salmon burgers are delicious and very large and full of salmon - there's not much filler. Often my husband and I share one. Sometimes I broil them, sometimes I pan fry with a little olive oil.
J Levin on 3/26/2015 2:13:37 PM
Review: These are very convenient because there is no need to defrost before cooking. They can be a little dry so definitely use the "keep it moist" solution in the recipe section of the website. They make a good fast meal and can be tasty when served with condiments on a good potato bun.

Dear Art Educators,
I received the following from Naomi Natale...... I will find out if
they will accept cradles made by students for the installation
From Naomi Natale:
My name is Naomi Natale. I am the founder of The Cradle Project, which
is an art installation designed to represent the plight of the
estimated 48 million children who have been orphaned by disease and
poverty in sub-Saharan Africa.
I am contacting you today because I feel that this very important
project is one that should be promoted among all people involved in the
arts and arts
Below is just a summary of the project I have taken from our brochure,
but I would encourage you to visit the website for more
"In September of 2007 one thousand cradles and cribs made by artisans
from around the world will fill an abandoned warehouse in Albuquerque,
New Mexico. We call this vision The Cradle Project.
The Cradle Project is an art installation designed to represent the
plight of the estimated 48 million children who have been orphaned by
disease and poverty in sub-Saharan Africa.
Our Mission is to promote awareness and raise financial support to help
feed, shelter, and educate these children.
The vision of The Cradle Project is to utilize the symbolism of empty
cradles and falling sand to represent the lost potential of these
orphaned children. Our goal is to amass a minimum of 1,000 cradles,
all made out of scrap material. We believe that if we can see enough
potential in a piece of scrap to make a structure which cradles a
child, why can we not see that much potential in our world's forgotten
children. Empty cradles speak for themselves. Juxtaposed to these
cradles will be a wall of slowly falling sand, symbolizing how these
lives, these cradles, this potential, will all be buried and never
As the founder of The Cradle Project, I am often asked about the origin
of this vision. It began four short years ago during a trip to Kenya
where I was conducting a photo documentary of children living in slums.
For most of my visit I traveled with an order of Sisters who were
working with orphaned children. The journeys that I took with them -
moving from one orphanage and slum to the next, across the entire
country - exposed me to one of the most staggering and horrifying
realities affecting Africa today - the orphan crisis.
During one of these visits I was told the story of two brothers who had
lived in Kibera, the second largest slum in Africa. Both brothers were
graced with amazing creative talents - one could build small airplanes
out of scrap metal that would actually fly (!) and the younger brother
was an exceptional sculptor; at the age of eight he would sculpt
anything requested of him for merely a shilling, only to destroy it and
start over for his next amazed customer. When the story was relayed to
me both of the brothers had already gone missing and were feared dead.
Their fate still remains unknown. Like so many millions of other
anonymous and gifted children living in the slums of Africa, their
potential as thriving and creative citizens of our global community
slipped unnoticed and un-nurtured through the falling sands of time.
The vision of The Cradle Project is to utilize the symbolism of empty
cradles and falling sand to represent exactly this loss. Our goal is
to amass a minimum of 1,000 cradles, all made out of scrap material,
and display them in an abandoned warehouse, against a towering backdrop
of falling sand. We believe that if we can see enough potential in
pieces of discarded scraps to build structures meant to cradle a child,
then surely we can imagine the potential of our world's forgotten
children. One thousand empty cradles speak volumes about loss. The
wall of slowly falling sand in the background symbolizes how these
lives, these cradles, this potential, will all be buried - irrevocably.
Of course, if we are correct and our visions do extend beyond the
possibilities of scrap material to the lives of vibrant and hopeful
children, then The Cradle Project also represents hope. With its
ability to provoke artistic and political engagement with a pressing
humanitarian issue, as well as its ability to stimulate funding, The
Cradle Project will help transform potential in to actuality.
Soon we will be adding a link to our website about an extension of this
project called Children Helping Children. Children Helping Children
is an initiative geared at getting schools throughout the country
involved in The Cradle Project by having their students make cradles.
These cradles will not be part of the installation but instead they
will stay in the community where they were made as an indication that
if we can move children to care about other children who are thousands
of miles away, then there is truly enough hope in this world to make a
I strongly urge you to consider promoting this project within your
arts community. This issue is so important and
any awareness we can spread is incredibly valuable.

Picture: The Beach Boys performing live in concert at Sydney Entertainment Centre. Sydney, Australia - 14.11.07
LATEST: A lawsuit filed by THE Beach Boys was thrown out of court earlier this month (DEC06) after a lawyer representing the band showed up 13 minutes late for the court hearing.
On 11 December (06) DANNY MORIN, the attorney for the band's company Brother Records Inc, showed up late for a hearing in Los Angeles Federal Court.
Judge MANUEL REAL, who is known for his explosive tirades, dismissed the case when Morin didn't appear at his scheduled time.
Brother Records filed the lawsuit last January (06), seeking $20 million (GBP10 million) in damages from two men who allegedly stole a large stash of the band's memorabilia from a warehouse in North Hollywood, California.
The band claimed that ALAN GABA, who owned the warehouse, and his friend, ROY SCIACCA, stole such items as Brian Wilson and Mike Love's contract for the song DO IT AGAIN, photos of the band with George Harrison, and original music compositions.
The 11 December (06) hearing was the final pre-trial conference, the last stage before the case was set to go to trial.
