Saudi Arabia has officially changed its weekend to Friday-Saturday from its current Thursday-Friday, following a royal decree issued by the country's ruler King Abdullah.
According to the decree, the change will come into effect on June 29. The move will bring the Gulf's most populous country and world's largest oil exporter in line with the rest of the GCC countries, which currently operate on a Sunday to Thursday working week. Oman was the most recent to make the switch, changing to the new weekend on May 1 this year.
A video of the official announcement can be seen here.

This series of videos introduces narrative praxis and then describes two common techniques used by narrative practitioners to look at information in different ways.
Introduction to Narrative Praxis
Externalization: The Apple in the Bowl
This role play lesson plan was developed by M.S. in Conflict Analysis and Resolution students at George Mason University for Dr. Arthur Romano's Pedagogy course and was piloted in that class.
In the last few years there has been a rise of real and alleged incidents of bias and hate speech on college campuses which have sparked vigorous and much needed debate over these events, what happened at them, and what the proper response ought to be. Often times the complexity of those events and of the identities, beliefs, policies, and intentions wrapped up in them get swept aside by one-sided rhetoric that simplifies incidents as revolving solely around questions of race, privilege, or free speech. In order to encourage students to critically explore the complexity of these issues and the spectrum of experiences, bias, identities, intentions, and policies this lesson plan lays out a role playing scenario around such an incident. Specifically this scenario is loosely based on a real-life incident at a college around a "Tequila party" that caused much debate which highlights the difficulty of reducing any such case into a clear-cut understanding of what happened or what answers ought to be sought. Please note that the scenario and roles used in this role play are fictional and have no relation to actual faculty, staff, or students at that college.
The goal of this lesson is to have students engage in a lively discussion about the complexity of bias incidents by taking on two different identities, or roles, of fictional actors on a college campus. Ideally the discussion and the diversity of roles whose views and priorities might not align with every student's own views will stimulate a better understanding of how such a conflict plays out in all its complexity. Additionally students will should gain some empathy and ability to understand, if not necessarily agree, with other points of view and see how this could be useful in dealing with these incidents. Rather than having the students looking at the conflict from the outside with the intent of fixing the problem, they will instead experience it from the inside and will confront differing view points on the incident and proposed college policy.
Schedule and Time: About 45 minutes
The lesson would be broken down into roughly the following schedule:
|5 Minutes
Activity and prompt read out loud and explained to the class. A copy of both should be available either on a projector or on printed copies for each participant.
|2 Minutes
|Groups and Role Assignment
Class divided into groups of no more than eight (including facilitators) and are given their randomized roles. Note there should be one facilitator per group.
|15 Minutes
|First Discussion
The facilitators help begin a group discussion with each role player introducing themselves and given time to speak. The facilitators should take an active role not to shape the group's opinion but rather to help get everyone into the mood of role playing, to ensure everyone has a chance to talk, and to keep the discussion civil and on topic.
|15 Minutes
|Second Discussion
The facilitators have all students pass their roles to the person across from them or to the right. Then the facilitators lead the groups in restarting the discussions again but this time with everyone's new roles. The facilitators should guide the discussion the same way as the first one; with everyone introducing themselves and the facilitators both being involved in their role and acting as moderator when needed.
|7 Minutes
The facilitators will announce when the time for the second discussion is up and they will gather everyone back into a larger circle. At this point they will ask the debrief questions to check-in on the dynamic of each group and of the individual students' thoughts and feelings on the experience of the exercise.
A projector and computer with which to display the scenario and discussion prompt for reference during the activity. The facilitators may also instead opt to print out copies of the scenario and prompt for every participant.
Printed and individually cut packets of role strips to be handed out to each group of eight students. The slips should may be given to each participant randomly or else may be folded and pull randomly out of a container. Regardless, it is important for each group to have it's own separate packet of roles to choose from to avoid double roles.
Students of a dorm at Miskatonic University have advertised publicly on social media and with fliers around campus that they would be having a "Tequila Party," which some of them also referred to as a "Fiesta." The party went forward and involved drinking tequila wearing sombreros, pictures of which surfaced on Facebook after the event. In the days following the emergence of those pictures, some students began to protest against the event on the grounds it was a form of racial and ethnic stereotyping. Students and college groups on both sides began to be involved in protests and writing opinion pieces in the college paper over the event and the administration's subsequent condemnation of any stereotyping as against the Honor Code and the University's values. The administration has asked for respectful dialogue and has gathered everyone here today who is interested in a townhall to hear student feedback on how to move forward and address any concerns.
Prompt for Discussion:
The University's Student Life and Multi-Cultural Committee has proposed that for the duration of the academic year (approximately three months) all non-academic events must be approved at least a week in advance by a newly created Event Review Board that will screen for and prevent potential violations of the Social Code and College Values. Please note that this is a proposal and that such a Board has not been set up yet.

Debrief Questions:
How did everyone's group discussion goal? Did your groups seem to coalesce around one particular view or were there more disagreements?
Did you find playing the roles you were given to be difficult? Especially if the identity and view you were given was different from your own?
How did it feel to change identities half way through the discussion? Did you find that challenging and did you gain any insights into other view points as a result?
Have any of you experienced any incidents or townhalls such as the one we role played today? In what ways did you find the experiences different or similar?
What do you think you have learned from this scenario and how do you think it could be applied to incidents and discussions about the complexity of bias, identity, and policy in real life?
Skill Share Lesson – Conflict Resolution Pedagogy
By: Chelsie Kuhn and Jeff McGuire
The School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution
George Mason University
Introduction and Background: This lesson was conducted for a Conflict Resolution Pedagogy class at GMU's School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution. The goal of the skill share was to provide students with the social/emotional intelligence to affecting deal with anger, in the context of maintain nonviolent discipline while a participant in a nonviolent resistance movement.
1). Sample Introduction Script:
2). A Force More Powerful: Training for Nonviolent Action (James Lawson)
3). Facilitated Imagination Exercise: Handling anger in the face of violent oppression –> Nonviolence
4). Learning Outcomes:
This series of videos describes the practice of Liberation theology over the past two decades in a neighborhood on the outskirts of a Brazilian city in the Northeast. It is relevant to those who are interested in social movements in Brazil, their history, and also for those interested in Paulo Freire and critical pedagogy, as many of Freire's ideas came out of Liberation theology as it was practiced in Brazil's northeast.
Part 1 – In this first video, Bira takes us through the spiritual underpinnings of Liberation theology and the establishment by missionaries of a Basic Ecclesial Community. Many social-justice movements in Brazil were spawned in these communities, including some that turned into political parties, and others that turned into militant reform movements.
Part 2- In this second video, Bira describes the housing project, Cajazeiras – its creation, its exclusion, and the dynamic interaction between those in the apartments with basic sanitation, and those in the rapidly expanding favelas around them. He introduces the missionaries Padre Luis Lintner and Pina Rabbiosi, the founders of Casa do Sol, and describes his initial formative interactions with the priest, who brought Liberation theology to the neighborhood. Finally, he situates the Casa do Sol in the context of the community of Cajazeiras.
Part 3 – In this clip, Bira describes in more detail the programs of the Casa do Sol and its use of art in the social context. In the 1990s there was an "explosion" of NGOs in Brazil, which helped form the foundation of the quest for social justice there. Much of their work was done with youth, through art and sports.
Part 4 – Bira in this clip articulates the positionality of Paulo Freire's critical pedagogy with Liberation theology, the Casa do Sol Itself, the Movimento Sem Terra (Landless Movement), and a culture of peace, justice, and social struggle in Brazil. He also describes the tragedy that was visited upon the Casa do Sol a few years after its inauguration.
Part 5 – In this final clip, we wrap up the conversation. Bira speaks about the current political turmoil in Brazil, about corruption, and about the ongoing quest for social justice.

For Dr. Arthur Romano at George Mason's School of Conflict Analysis and Resolution
Introduction and Background
The following lesson plan was used by a group of Conflict Analysis and Resolution Master's and PhD Candidates for a two hour event on the George Mason University Fairfax Campus with approximately 15-20 undergraduate students. The students all came voluntarily, but most were studying Conflict Analysis and Resolution, Global Affairs, and Communications.
Enduring Understanding:The role of identity and how it works for or against us in the world
Essential Questions: How do our multiple identities impact our experiences in life?
Learning Objectives
Time Needed
Total: 2-3 hours
Intro and Identity Maps (1+ hour)
Nested Model Mapping Activity (1+hour)
Materials Needed
Index Cards
Dry erase markers/board
Computer Paper
Masking tape
1). Welcome everyone into the space
2). Explain the activity:
3). Break into discussion
4). Transition to box identities and nested model mapping
5). Have facilitator hold box, and have 3-4 participants choose an notecard without looking
6). One by one, have the participants with notecards go up to the board and have the audience help them place where the identity goes within the nested model. Discuss as the participant is placing the identity why it should go there.
7). Debrief Questions
8). Closing: Metta Meditation–send love/positive energy to appreciate everyone's willingness to participate at whatever level of depth they decided today. Discussing identities can be difficult because it is such a vulnerable, and sometime painful, topic. To continue processing and moving forward in this work, we need to be willing to open up and discuss what certain identity experiences hold. Facilitators thank everyone for coming.
This lecture explores informal education and its importance in conflict resolution.

Reggie Miller has a chance to nail his legacy, just as he did so many 3-point shots.
The Indiana Pacers great with the smoothest of strokes was announced Friday as a first-time finalist for the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. He is one of 12 finalists for the class of 2012.
"When you're in the backyard and you're trying to play the 3-2-1 game, and you're trying to be the Iceman (George Gervin) and do the finger roll. ... Now to be on the same stage with these guys. It's just a great honor," Miller said.
Miller, a five-time All-Star, was joined as a first-time finalist by five-time NCAA Final Four coach Rick Pitino, former NBA coach Bill Fitch and two-time Olympic gold medalist Katrina McClain.
On the ballot again are Don Nelson, Maurice Cheeks, Bernard King, Dick Motta, Hank Nichols, Ralph Sampson, Jamaal Wilkes and the All-American Red Heads, known as the female version of the Harlem Globetrotters and the first women's professional basketball team.
The 2012 class will be announced April 2 at NCAA Final Four in New Orleans. A finalist needs 18 of 24 votes from the Honors Committee for election.
BOGUT'S ANKLE HEALING: The Milwaukee Bucks say center Andrew Bogut won't need surgery on his injured left ankle.

Hammond said Friday that Bogut will be allowed to go to the next stage of his rehabilitation program and have another scan in about a month.
Bogut fractured his ankle Jan. 25 against Houston when his foot landed awkwardly on a Rockets player's foot.

Jordanians pick new parliament amid row over voter turnout
IEC gives final turnout figure of 56.6 percent of registered electorate but Brotherhood says turnout is way below that figure due to fraud.
Middle East Online
By Musa Hattar – AMMAN
Final results not announced yet
Tribal leaders, pro-regime loyalists and independent businessmen looked set to sweep Jordan's parliamentary election that was shunned by Islamists, according to initial results released on Thursday.
The Independent Election Commission was to hold a news conference later in the day but said it was unclear if final results would be announced.
Wednesday's election, considered by King Abdullah II as a focal point of his reforms process, was boycotted by Islamists led by the Muslim Brotherhood, who said the monarch's measures fell short of true democratic change.
The IEC gave a final turnout figure of 56.6 percent of the registered electorate of 2.3 million but the Brotherhood said turnout was way below that figure due to fraud and vote-buying.
Initial results released by the IEC showed that tribal leaders, an assortment of pro-regime figures and independent businessmen were heading the field.
The figures also showed that independent candidate Maryam Luzi, an educationist, had won a seat outside of the quota system which reserves 15 seats for women in Jordan.
Another winner, according to the IEC, was Khalil Atieh, a long-time regime ally who enjoys good reputation. Standing in the capital Amman, he bagged the highest number of votes -- 19,280 -- in his constituency.
At least three candidates, who have been accused by the authorities of vote-buying, appeared to have won. Their cases are still before the courts and if found guilty, they face several years in jail.
The Muslim Brotherhood slammed the election.
"The turnout does not make any sense. They could have done a better job to make people believe," Zaki Bani Rshied, deputy leader of the Brotherhood said.
"We have closely monitored the electoral process. Vote buying and fake voter cards were very clear. We will prove that our boycott was the right decision."
The election commission insisted its figures were "accurate."
"The voting was slow in the morning, but in the afternoon, the turnout increased. Our figures are accurate and realistic," head of the commission Abul Ila Khatib said.
"We have nothing to hide. The election is being observed by Jordanians themselves and international monitors. We are not worried about the figures. We care about the integrity of the election."
King Abdullah II wants the election to pave the way for a parliamentary system of government.
He has said he plans for the first time to consult MPs before naming a premier, insisting that strong political parties are needed to support such system of government.
But the Islamists and the National Reform Front of former premier and intelligence chief Ahmad Obeidat, which also boycotted the poll, argue there is no real will to reform and insist that the king should not name prime ministers.
A total of 1,425 candidates, including around 140 former MPs and 191 women, contested the 150 seats in parliament's lower house.

Side effects from an abortion: medical (poisoning or burning) or surgical (pulling the baby out in pieces)
link to women.webmd.com
This is an authoritative medical link, not a pro-choice or pro-life site.
"How Well It Works
First-trimester surgical abortions are safe and effective and have few complications.
In rare cases, an aspiration procedure doesn't successfully end a pregnancy. This is more likely to happen during the earliest weeks of a pregnancy. Among manual aspirations performed before 6 weeks, about 3 out of 100 fail, requiring a repeat procedure.1
First-trimester surgical abortions are considered one of the safest surgical procedures. The risk of complications is low. Some minor complications include:
Injury to the uterine lining or cervix.
Infection. Bacteria can enter the uterus during the procedure and cause an infection. This is more likely if an untreated disease, such as a sexually transmitted disease (STD), is present before the procedure. Symptoms of fever, pain, and abdominal tenderness will usually start within 2 to 3 days of the procedure. Antibiotics given during or after the procedure reduce the risk of infection.
Rare complications include:
A hole in the wall of the uterus (uterine perforation, rare), which most commonly happens during cervical dilation. Bleeding is usually minimal, and no repair is needed. If bleeding is a concern, a laparoscopy (a procedure that uses a lighted viewing instrument) can be used to see whether it has stopped.
Tissue remaining in the uterus (retained products of conception), usually causing recurring cramping abdominal pain and bleeding within a week of the procedure. Sometimes prolonged bleeding does not develop until several weeks later.
Blood clots. If the uterus doesn't contract to pass all of the tissue, the cervical opening can become blocked, preventing blood from leaving the uterus. The uterus becomes enlarged and tender, often causing abdominal pain, cramping, and nausea.
A repeat vacuum aspiration and medicine to stop bleeding are used to treat retained products of conception or blood clots.
Undiagnosed ectopic pregnancy after manual or machine vacuum aspiration
It is possible to have an undiagnosed ectopic (tubal) pregnancy that isn't discovered until after an abortion procedure. Although the pregnancy test before the procedure is positive, the pregnancy is not in the uterus. So the abortion method does not end the pregnancy. Symptoms of an ectopic pregnancy that occur after an abortion procedure can include:
Abdominal or pelvic pain that gets worse.
Pain with intercourse.
Vaginal bleeding.
Lightheadedness or fainting caused by blood loss.
Ectopic pregnancy requires urgent medical care. Call your doctor immediately if you have symptoms of a possible ectopic pregnancy. For more information, see the topic Ectopic Pregnancy."

With present circuit breaker or other circuit interrupter mountings, it quite often happens that a high capacity circuit breaker is substituted for a low capacity circuit breaker either because the rating of the old breaker is not known or the rating of the replacement breaker is not known. This will eventually lead to overloading of the branch circuit Wires and the possibility of fire.
It is desirable to provide a circuit breaker mounting that will prevent the substitution of a higher rating circuit breaker for a lower rating circuit breaker. This could be accomplished by constructing circuit breakers with housings having different size recesses that are used for mounting, with the higher rated breakers having the smaller sized recesses, and having different size mounting brackets to cooperate with the different sizes of recesses. Thus, it would not be possible to insert a higher rated breaker in place of a lower rated breaker since the recess for mounting the breaker would not be large enough for the bracket to be inserted therein.
One of the principal disadvantages of this type arrangement is that the panelboard builder would need to know exactly what the capacity of each circuit of the panelboard would be before he could ship the panelboard since it would be necessary to use different size brackets for the various circuit breaker ratings. This is not a practical arrangement. Therefore, some means should be devised whereby it is not necessary to use different brackets.
My invention provides a means whereby the panelboard maker manufactures a single size panelboard without the need to consider the requirements of the various branch circuits that will ultimately be fed through the panelboard. Once the panelboard is in the field, predetermined sections of the mounting bracket may be broken off as required to enable various rated circuit breakers to be positioned and secured to the panelboard. The different ratings of the circuit interrupter may be contained in same size housings with the housings having different sized mounting recesses for the different ratings.
My invention may be carried out by varying either the length, width, or thickness of the mounting bracket and mounting recess; by varying any combination of length, width, and thickness of the bracket and recess; or by altering the shape of the bracket and recess in any other convenient manner. It is possible to provide a different size mounting recess for each size circuit breaker and have the mounting bracket constructed to be broken off at a number of predetermined points. However, as a practical matter quite often a number of circuit breakers having different ratings are contained in identical sized housings having the same size mounting recess. For example, the circuit breakers illustrated in the preferred embodiments of my invention, to be hereinafter described, are of the EQP type described in LT-E Circuit Breaker Company Cat. No. EQP 815. In this circuit breaker the 15 and 20 ampere rated breakers are housed in identical cases, while the breakers rated 30, 40 or amperes are housed in identical cases but these cases differ from those housing the 15 and 20 ampere rated breakers.
Accordingly, a primary object of my invention is to provide a uniform panelboard that may be modified after installation to provide selective mountings for circuit interrupters to thereby prevent improper replacement of a higher rated circuit interrupter in place of a lower rated interrupter in spite of the fact that both interrupters are housed in the same size cases.
Another object is to provide a mounting bracket having a plurality of breakoif sections that may be broken off to modify the mounting bracket to predetermined dimensions and thereby provide a mounting bracket that may be modified to three or more sizes.
Another object of my invention is to provide circuit interrupters having different sized recesses for different-1y rated interrupters, with the higher rated interrupter having the smaller sized recess.
Still another object is to provide a different size circuit interrupter mounting bracket for differently rated circuit interrupters, with the smaller bracket being for the higher rating interrupter.
A still further object is to provide a circuit braker mounting bracket having a portion or portions that may be broken off so that the bracket may be accepted by the small recess of a higher rated circuit interrupting device that was too small to accept the mounting bracket before the breakoff sections were removed.
These and other objects of my invention will become apparent after reading the following description in connect-ion with the drawings in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of a section of a panelboard having my selective mounting bracket with a height adjustment.
FIGURE 2 is an end view of a panelboard showing a low rated breaker mounted thereto and the inability of a high rated breaker from being mounted.
FIGURE 3 is a perspective view of a section of the load end retainer bracket showing a mounting bracket having a length adjustment.
FIGURE 4 is a bottom view of a circuit breaker.
FIGURE 5 is a view of the load side of the circuit breaker.
[FIGURE 6 is a view as in FIGURE 3 showing another embodiment of my invention.
FIGURE 7 is similar to FIGURE 3 with the mounting bracket having a width adjustment.
FIGURE 8 is a similar to FIGURE 3 with the mounting bracket having both a length and a width adjustment.
FIGURE 8A is similar to FlGUR-E 3 with the mounting bracket having a shaping adjustment.
FIGURE 9 is similar to FIGURE 3 with the mounting bracket having -a thickness adjustment in four steps.
Referring to FIGURE 1. The panelboard 10 consists of a U-shaped frame I1, bus bars 131S having extensions 16-18, insulating block 12 mounted on the Web of frame 11 to insulate and position the bus bars 13-15 and extensions l618, and retainer brackets 19 mounted on the arms of the frame 11 by means of screws 1%. Extending from the retaining brackets 19 are mounting brackets 45.
Referring to FIGURES l and 5, the high 40H and low 40L rating circuit breakers to be mounted to panelboard 10, having mounting brackets 45, are housed in the same size cases, with lower rated breakers having a recess 41 of height G and the higher rated breakers having a recess 41 of height H. To cooperate with recess 41 retainer brackets 19 are provided with mounting brackets 45 that consist of a mainsection 51 and auxiliary section 46 that is secured to main section 51 by screw 47 or any other suitable fastener. Notch 49, running the full Width of the auxiliary section 46, defines the breakoff section 48. Break off of section 48 is quite convenient in that edge 50 of auxiliary member 46 slightly overlies the main section 51.
The lower rated breaker 40L with recess height G will accept the combined thickness of the main and auxiliary sections of mounting bracket 45 but the recess height H of the higher rated breakers 40H is too small to permit the higher rated breaker 40H to be mounted to the panelboard 10. In order to mount the higher rated breaker 40H it is necessary to break away section 48 thus reducing the thickness of the mounting bracket 45 so that it is less than height H of recess 41 of the higher rated circuit breaker 40H.
The circuit breakers 40H and 40L are mounted to the panelboard in the manner illustrated in FIGURE 2 and to be hereinafter more fully described.
Referring to FIGURES 2, 3, and 4, a second embodiment of my invention is illustrated. Circuit breaker 21L is shown mounted to the panelboard by means of mounting bracket 20, which mates with recess 22 located in the breaker 21L just below the load terminal 23; and the disconnect fingers 26 which are visible through opening 24 in the bottom of the breaker 21. Disconnect fingers 26 engage the bus bar extension 16 with a high pressure wiping action to form the line side electrical connection. Circuit breaker 21L is the breaker of the series having a low rating with a recess of depth C, while the high value breaker 21H has a recess 22 with a depth 13 which is less than depth C.
The depth C of recess 22 is such that the distance X is now less than the distance A which is the distance between the mounting bracket and the bus bar extension 16. Should the operator attempt to install the higher rating circuit breaker 21H in place of the lower rating circuit breaker 21L, the end 27 of mounting bracket 21 would strike the bottom 28 of recess 22 and at this time the distance X would be greater than the distance A. Therefore, the bottom of the higher rated breaker 21H would strike the bus bar extension 16 and prevent disconnect fingers 26 from engaging the extension 16. This would indicate that the rating of the breaker is too high for the branch circuit. In order to accommodate the higher rated breaker 21H it is necessary to break off a section 29 of the mounting plate 20 along a line passing through break off notches 28. By breaking off section 29 the length of bracket 2t) is reduced, thus the distance A is increased to A which is at least equal to the distance X and the higher rated breaker 21H may now be mounted to the panelboard 10. Thus by reducing the length of mounting bracket 20 the panelboard 10 may now receive higher rated breakers.
A third embodiment of my invention is shown in FIG- URES 6 and 7. In this embodiment the circuit breakers 30L and 30H each have a load side mounting recess 31 having a width E for the lower ratings, and a reduced width F for the higher ratings. The load end retainer brackets 19 are formed with mounting brackets 35. Notches 36 and 38 are cut from mounting bracket to define the breakofli sections 37 and 39.
The mounting bracket 35 with the break off sections 37, 39 is not as wide as E but is wider than F. Thus only the recess 31 of lower rated breaker 30L is wide enough to accept the mounting bracket 35 before break 01f sections 37, 39 are removed. After the sections 37, 39 have been broken off the mounting bracket is now narrower than F and the narrow recess 31 of the higher rated breaker 30H can now be mounted on the panelboard 10.
A combination of length and widthadjustment is shown in mounting bracket 55 of FIGURE 8 by breaking off portions defined by lines passing through notches 57. In FIGURE 8A the break ofi sections 61 of mounting bracket 60 are triangular in shape. Circuit breakers having appropriately shaped slots (not shown) must be provided to cooperate with mounting brackets 55 and 60.
FIGURE 9 illustrates an embodiment of my invention that is an amplification of the embodiment previously described in connection with FIGURES 1 and 5. Retainer bracket 19 is provided with a mounting bracket that consists of a main section 31 and auxiliary sections 82-85 mounted thereon in successive layers and fastened to mainsection 81 by a rivet 94 or other suitable means. The auxiliary sections 8285 have notches 86-89 cut therein to define lines for the break off sections %93.
With allthe break off sections in place only the lowest rated breaker of the series may be mounted to the panelboard. After breaking off section 93 the size of the mounting bracket 80 is reduced a higher rated breaker to be mounted. For breakers of still higher ratings, sections 92, 91 and 90 may be broken off selectively in successive steps depending upon the rating of the breaker to be installed. With this arrangement, while all breaker ratings may be housed in the size case, the case will have a difierent height notch for each rating circuit breaker that is housed therein. With the arrangement illustrated in FIGURE 9, four adjustments and five sizes are achieved. This number may be increased by adding more auxiliary sections.
Justas the embodiment illustrated in FIGURES 1 and 5 was amplified to achieve the embodiment of FIGURE 9, so too may the other embodiments be amplified to achieve a plurality of adjustment to produce three or more predetermined sizes or shapes for the mounting bracket.
The break oif sections as I have illustrated them are determined by lines passing through one notch or joining two notches. However, the lines may pass through a section of the mounting bracket that is weakened in any suitable manner, such as by a series of holes or perforations.
While I have described the circuit protective equipment of the various embodiments as being circuit breakers, any other suitable circuit interrupting device, such as a fuse, may be used. The ditferently rated circuit interrupters may all be housed in the same size cases.
In the foregoing, I have described my invention only in connection with preferred embodiments thereof. Many variations and modifications of the principles of my invention within the scope of the description herein are obvious. Accordingly, I prefer to be bound not by the specific disclosure herein but only by the appending claims.
I claim:

I am not sure if this (NAC) is the reason, but I have noticed some general improvements. For example, after experiencing a hard hit (think bruised) foot, I experienced very rapid improvement. I work hard to be healthy - take lots of helpful supplements, etc., so I have no idea how much NAC has helped since I started taking it a few weeks ago.

Every film that has ever been nominated for an Academy Award in any category. Enjoy!
1972 Directed by Peter H. Hunt
The award winning musical comes to the screen!
The film focuses on the representatives of the Thirteen original colonies who participated in the Second Continental Congress. 1776 depicts the three months of deliberation (and, oftentimes, acrimonious debate) that led up to the signing of one of the most important documents in the History of the United States, the Declaration of Independence.

Before watching this, if you would have told me that it was possible to make a fun, funny, heartwarming, and all-around fantastic musical based on the signing of the Declaration of Independence, I probably would have punched you in the face.
And yet, here we are.
I abstain. Courteously.
What a weird movie! First up in the strange department is the central premise: "Let's take the continental congress' labor pains and writing of the Declaration of Independence and put it to song." Yes, I always thought that whole ordeal could use a few more rousing numbers. And, for the "only 90's kids will get this" crowd, let's have Mr. Feeney be John Adams, really throw us for a loop. Who knew he could sing! Anyways, let's not only make this a musical, let's also make it 2 hours and 45 minutes long. We'll need plenty of songs about Thomas Jefferson's sex life and slavery and conservatism, so we'll really use that full runtime. It feels like there's a really…
A musical about the Declaration of Independence!
On the face of it, it doesn't sound as if this is promising material for a musical film, but Sherman Edwards' show ran for over 1,000 performances on Broadway in 1969 and enjoyed a successful revival in 1997.
It wasn't even the first musical on the topic (it followed the now-forgotten Rodgers and Hart piece, Dearest Enemy, and a Gould/Fields show called Arms and the Girl). On the face of it, watching this film, the constant songs are punctuated by rather pungent overacting and muddled history (at least to this non-American).
Those songs, though, are not all bad (although some titles are odd, e.g. 'Piddle, Twiddle and Resolve'). The dialogue (like some of…
Mr. Feeny singing! I feel like such a nerd for enjoying this so much, combing music with with my love of history. William Daniels (Feeny) is very good, though it's oft-putting listening to him sing. I;m not huge on the actual music, I enjoyed it more for its non music elements, though it definitely goes on way too long.

In light of 2016 being an election year and political history musicals reaching relevance again thanks to Hamilton, I decided to revisit this film that I haven't seen since I was a child learning about my beloved country. I remember laughing and enjoying the lighthearted tone. I remember that scene of Benjamin Franklin talking about turkeys. My, how several decades alters your view of a film so greatly.
When I think of people who hate movie musicals, I think that they're actually thinking of 1776. The adaptation of American history is a rip-roaring story that brings history to life. The costumes are so colorful and John Adams is a delightful presence. Everything about the actual delegation and debates is fascinating…
I saw this movie as kid who was really into history, loved going to Washington D.C. and Plymouth Plantation. I tried to consume anything I could on the building of our country. I saw this on network television on a July 4th. First thing I thought was why is the voice from Knight Rider singing, and this is pretty great. Most of the songs are good to great and the movie is well acted. Especially by Donald Madden as John Dickinson the main opponent.
In case you do not know about this movie it is a musical based on the signing of the Declaration Of Independence. With John Adams, Ben Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson as the leads. Some stand out…
1776 is one of the great film musicals. That it's hardly appreciated today both makes perfect sense and no sense at all.
The audience for musicals is limited to begin with, let alone for ones about history, and even then it's not a war movie but a political one. The majority of the cast are all male, stuffy, middle-aged politicians, and most of the story takes place in a single room where the politics of independence is debated.
And yet, it's an incredible movie that makes one think about how countries are formed. It's not so much a patriotic work as a thought-provoking work. Much like 12 Angry Men, suspense is created around the casting of a vote, and we…
Woah just picked up on all the innuendos. Mrs. Jefferson's song was wildly inappropriate.
Rewatched with Lauren and Rachel, as part of our sudden fascination with musicals about the American Revolution, and our nostalgia for the works that shaped our hearts and minds in middle school.
I think that even people who don't like musicals should like this movie. I think every student of American history should watch this movie, as my APUSH teacher also did, and showed this movie to the class. I know, the idea in which the founding fathers burst into song can sound cheesy, but it works I promise you. Many of the questions posed then "A second flood, a simple famine, plagues of locusts everywhere, or a cataclysmic earthquake, I'd accept with some despair. But no, You sent us Congress! Good God, Sir, was that fair?" to the hypocritical and painful legacy of slavery, "Molasses to Rum to Slaves", are still being played out today, and remain relevant. Other times, it's simply good fun.

Hello World
Hi everyone — my name is Aaron Rosenson and I'm Aleph's newest Partner.
I've spent the last 4 years with Insight Venture Partners, a venture capital/growth equity firm in New York City. They've backed Twitter, New Relic, and Shopify, as well as a number of impressive Israeli companies, such as Wix and Checkmarx.
Over the past few years, I was responsible for identifying some of Insight's most exciting investments, such as Docker, HelloFresh, Moat, Gainsight, and Illuminate Education. I've led M&A strategy and business development efforts for Insight portfolio companies and have served as an adviser to a number of Insight's CEOs.
I am interested in businesses and entrepreneurs across a broad range of categories (from enterprise software to infrastructure to consumer internet) and stages (pre-revenue to pre-IPO). But from my work at Insight, I discovered that I am most passionate about earlier stage companies. In particular, I want to support entrepreneurs in their dreams of building scalable companies out of Israel.
To that effect, I hope I can add some perspective about scaling a global business, drawn from the thousands of tech companies I have looked at over my years at Insight. For example — given the realities that would likely exist at the "growth stage" for a particular company — what strategies should that company employ at the seed- and Series A-stage, to optimize their chances for success? How can we think together about a recruiting strategy to build a strong management team for scaling your business? What are the dynamics and who are the best growth stage investors for this kind of a company?
On a more personal level – I grew up in Chicago, the oldest of three siblings. I am a committed Zionist and after finishing up my degree at Wharton, I spent 6 months living in Jerusalem. My wife Ilana and I have been married for three years and are the proud parents of a baby girl, Charlotte.
I just made Aliya and am thrilled to be living in Israel. For thousands of years, my ancestors have dreamed of settling their families in this country; I'm grateful beyond words to finally make that dream a reality.
When I look at the entrepreneurs of Israel, who create local jobs and build startups into Israeli institutions, I consider them to be heroes. It's a perspective that I share with Michael, Eden, and the whole Aleph family and this attitude is one of the many reasons that I'm excited to join the partnership. Together, we all want to continue building a great country.
In the meantime, I look forward to getting better-acquainted with the local tech community. We'll be hosting a number of events over the next few months. I am firstname.lastname@example.com and @Aaron_Rosenson — please don't hesitate to reach out at any point, to chat about your business or anything else – the pleasure will be all mine.
