Jack Thompson may have wowed the gamer crowd at SGC09 over the weekend, but Chief Judge Federico Moreno of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida appears to be decidedly less smitten with the disbarred attorney's act.
In a court order issued on June 26th, Moreno directed Thompson to explain why his October, 2008 disbarment by the Florida Bar should not also extend to Thompson's ability to argue before the federal bench.
"Wait," you're saying to yourself, "I thought Jack Thompson was already disbarred?"
That's correct. But Thompson has maintained for some time that the disbarment order of the Florida Supreme Court applies only to the state court system. Thompson has even taken to including verbiage to that effect in the headings of his e-mails, like the one below:
John B. Thompson, Juris Doctor
Once and Future Attorney
(address removed by GP)
Only Admitted to Practice in U.S. District Court, Southern District of Florida, Not Admitted in Florida
Despite Thompson's claim, Judge Moreno's order seems to indicate that Thompson's ability to function as a lawyer in federal court is, at best, on life support.
For his part, Thompson reacted with typical bluster to the Judge's order. For example, a July 2nd e-mail to Judge Moreno (cc'd to GamePolitics) demands copies of any communications concerning Thompson between the Southern District Court and the Florida Bar. In the e-mail Thompson seems to mock Judge Moreno and makes reference to being placed on a "terrorists watch list":
I make this request/demand because of your prior improper placement of me on a terrorists watch list in retaliation for my sending you a letter about judicial misconduct on your watch. Even the Deputy US Marshals thought that was absurd. They laugh now every time I show up at the courthouse asking, "Are you still a dangerous terrorist, Mr. Thompson?" Funny stuff.
Now you have entered a show cause order demanding that I explain why you should not disbar me from the federal court, and in doing so you have told me to spend at least $30,000 to make my case in producing documents all of which the Florida Supreme Court has and [can] give you free of charge…
If I get sent to Gitmo as a "terrorist," then please send the stuff there. I'll be facing Tallahassee in prayer several times a day as required.
If you are curious as to the "terrorist watch list" reference, as GamePolitics reported last year, Judge Moreno dispatched a pair of U.S. Marshals to meet with Thompson afer the embattled attorney wrote to the judge, complaining:
We find yesterday that enemy combatants at Guantanamo are to get more due process from federal judges than what I am to have. I guess my "mistake" was not killing 3000 people to make my point…
Shortly thereafter Thompson complained that he was stopped from entering the courthouse in Miami by security personnel and was only permitted to enter the building with an escort.
Thompson, whose petition to review his disbarment was denied by the United States Supreme Court earlier this year, has a separate case relating to the disbarment ongoing in the Southern District.
DOCUMENT DUMP: GamePolitics has obtained a copy of Judge Moreno's one-page order via public records request. Grab a copy here.

Madrid, Spain (Sports Network) - Promising Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov
stunned world No. 1 Novak Djokovic, while reigning champion Roger Federer and
former titlist Andy Murray were a pair of second-round winners Tuesday at the
$4.425 million Madrid Open.
The 21-year-old Dimitrov made it a one-and-done situation for Djokovic this
week with a 7-6 (8-6), 6-7 (8-10), 6-3 decision at The Magic Box. The 28th-
ranked Dimitrov sent the Serbian star packing in 3 hours, 5 minutes with the
help of 13 aces and twice as many breaks (4-2) in the ultra-tight affair.
The Australian Open champion Djokovic, who enjoyed an opening-round bye
this week, was a clay-court champ at the Monte Carlo Masters three weeks
Meanwhile, after being idle since mid-March, the second-seeded former world
No. 1 Federer brushed aside Czech veteran Radek Stepanek 6-3, 6-3 at this
clay-court Masters 1000 French Open tune-up.
"I feel good now," Federer said. "Took me a little time to get over my back
issue from Indian Wells."
Federer beat Czech slugger Tomas Berdych in last year's Madrid finale and is a
three-time overall champion at this tournament.
The third-seeded Murray needed a pair of tiebreaks to stave off capable German
Florian Mayer, 7-6 (13-11), 7-6 (7-3). The U.S. Open champion Murray titled
here in 2008 when the event was staged on an indoor hardcourt.
Murray will meet Frenchman Gilles Simon on Thursday in a rematch of the 2008
Madrid finale, which was won by the British star in straight sets.
In some other second-round play on Day 3, Spaniard Daniel Gimeno-Traver
upended eighth-seeded Frenchman Richard Gasquet 7-5, 3-6, 6-4, Spanish left-
hander Fernando Verdasco ousted 12th-seeded Canadian Milos Raonic 6-4, 2-6,
7-6 (9-7) and a 16th-seeded Simon got past fellow Frenchman Jeremy Chardy 6-4,
7-6 (7-5).
Another second-round result saw Spanish wild card Pablo Andujar douse towering
American John Isner 6-4, 6-4.
In some first-round action involving seeds, Argentine Juan Monaco took out
ninth-seeded Serb Janko Tipsarevic 7-6 (7-5), 6-3, No. 13 hot German Tommy
Haas drilled Italian Andreas Seppi 6-1, 6-2, and No. 15 Swiss Stanislas
Wawrinka bested Romanian wild card Marius Copil 6-4, 6-4. The 35-year-old Haas
is fresh off his title in Munich, while Wawrinka was last week's clay-court
champion in Portugal, where he upset world No. 4 David Ferrer in the final.
Former top-five Spanish favorite Tommy Robredo reached the round of 32 with a
6-4, 6-2 victory over former Australian Open runner-up Marcos Baghdatis.
Robredo will meet the surging Haas on Wednesday.
Additional opening-round wins came for Colombian qualifier Santiago Giraldo,
Frenchman Benoit Paire, Russian Mikhail Youzhny, and Serb Viktor Troicki.
Second-round matches will also come on Wednesday for a fourth-seeded Ferrer,
fifth-seeded Rafael Nadal and a sixth-seeded Berdych. The recent Barcelona
champion and reigning French Open king Nadal is a two-time Madrid titlist and
two-time runner-up.

Most people know that wearing an effective sunscreen is vital for protecting your skin while outdoors; however, many people mistakenly believe the benefits of sun protection begin and end with preventing sunburns. In truth, the intense energy present in the sun's ultraviolet rays can cause damage that persists well beyond the amount of time that it takes for a sunburn to fade. The sun's ultraviolet rays actually have the potential to destroy vital proteins and other cells in the skin tissue and cause mutations that are responsible for fine lines, wrinkles and even some types of skin cancer. The PRIORI In Sun collection was designed to help protect your skin from all of the possible harmful side effects of sun exposure.
In addition to containing powerful sunscreens to prevent burns, the items in the PRIORI In Sun collection are also rich in antioxidants. The concentrated doses of these vital nutrients found in the PRIORI In Sun range shield the skin from cellular damage. As a result, the PRIORI In Sun lineup reduces the risk of premature aging and skin cancer.
Because the damaging effects of sun exposure can lead to far more than uncomfortable sunburns, selecting sun protection skin care products that do more than preventing burning is vital. The PRIORI In Sun collection was especially formulated by one of the foremost experts in skin care chemical science, Joseph A. Lewis II, to shield your skin from the cellular damage that leads to premature aging and the development of some types of skin cancers. Due to their antioxidant-rich formulations, the sun care products from PRIORI offer numerous other benefits as well, such as repairing damage previously caused by the sun.
The PRIORI Advanced AHA Daily Defense SPF 30 offers a broad spectrum sunscreen that is so effective at limiting exposure to harmful ultraviolet rays that the product is recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation. As the sunscreen protects your skin, a proprietary lactic acid present in the formula works to exfoliate your complexion, making fine lines and wrinkles less noticeable with each application. The sunscreen is dermatologist tested and safe for all skin types.
The PRIORI Idebenone Radical Defense SPF 30 carries the Skin Cancer Foundation's recommendation, thanks to its fully protective broad spectrum sunscreen formulation. The lotion also provides your skin with a dose of powerful idebenone, the synthetic form of the antioxidant coenzyme Q10, allowing it to shield your skin from oxidative damage. Idebenone is also beneficial for boosting collagen production in skin where the protein has been depleted due to damage from previous sun exposure.

Today WUSA9 made the decision to leave our broadcast of MASN/Nationals baseball in order to join CBS coverage of the NCAA Final Four Men's Basketball Tournament at 4 p.m. Regretfully, this decision upset a great many viewers who wanted to see the extra-inning finish to the Nationals/Reds game.
WUSA9 ran crawls at the bottom of the screen during the game telling viewers game coverage would continue on our digital 9.2 channel, and directing them to a channel guide on our web site so they could find the game on their cable or satellite provider. However, WUSA9 did not communicate that decision to MASN prior to the on-air announcements.
We apologize to those viewers who were upset by the transition, and we will work hard in the future to better communicate to our viewers and our programming partners.

UU Theatre Spring Production – Becky's New Car
Rehearsing for the upcoming spring theatre production of Becky's New Car are UU students Kohl King as Joe Foster and Zack Iiames as Steve Stingletary.
URBANA, Ohio (March 12, 2013) - Students in Theatre at Urbana University will be performing the comedy, Becky's New Car, by Steven Dietz on Friday and Saturday, March 22 and 23 at 8:00 p.m. The performance is in the University's Black Box Theatre on campus in the Hub.
The intimate theatre is limited to 60 seats, so reservations are recommended. They can be made through Wednesday, March 20 by calling 484-1409. Reserved tickets should be picked up at the Hub between 7:30 and 7:45 p.m. on performance nights. Only 40 seats will be reserved; the remaining will be available for general seating on a first come, first served basis beginning at 7:30 each night.
The fast-paced comedy of manners focuses on how Becky Foster, an office worker in a car dealership, loses her way on the road of life. Her route takes amusing twists, complicated turns, and surprising exits before she reaches her destination.
The lead role of Becky is played by Marci Copley, from Kenton, with a strong supporting cast of Kohl King, Urbana, as her husband Joe, a roofer; Josh Easton, Mt. Victory, as their son Chris who is in graduate school studying psychology; Zack Iiames, New Carlisle, as Steve, a car salesman; millionaire billboard executive Walter Flood and his daughter Kenni played by Jared Chastain, London, and Mercedes Dagnan, Medway; and Amanda Rockhold, Urbana, as a socialite named Ginger. Heather Berry, Springfield, plays the shadowy figure of Mrs. Tipton and doubles as the stage manager.
The production is directed by Margaret Piatt, assistant professor for theatre at Urbana University, who also supervises the student crew. This includes Samantha Little, Columbus, as the production designer and house manager collaborating with artists Alexandra Harenberg, Catawba, and Jessica Combs, Dayton; the latter also serves as the box office manager. Cody Slater, Urbana, is the technical director working with the cast and the crew of Kim Hazelwood, Mt. Gilead; Duane Hariston, Dayton; Ashley Lewis, Canton; Charity Nemic, Urbana; Matthew Patton, Urbana; Jayne Woodward, London; and, Adam Wunderele, Bellefontaine. John-Mark Howley, Mechanicsburg, is the sound director and operator; Amy Williams, Rockford, is the lighting operator. Kathleen Ollhoff, West Liberty, contributes as hair stylist and make-up coordinator; Sidney Fuller, London, as the running crew; and, Dina Fleming, Urbana, as a production assistant.
Additional support in technical theatre has been given by Michael Hurwitz, Tom Murphy, and James A. White. Helpful tips on customer service have been provided by the cheerful employees at White's Auto Group.
Becky's New Car premiered in 2008 in Seattle, Washington where the play is set. It is being produced at Urbana University by arrangement with Dramatists Play Services, Inc. The running time with two acts and one intermission is approximately two hours. There is no admission fee but donations are encouraged to help pay for new seating in the Black Box Theatre.

A competition was recently held by Chinese social media site Sina Weibo. Their mission? To find China's hottest mom.
While American Pie has made the idea of a MILF (you can look that term up if you don't know it) a run-on joke since the 90's, China seems to take this concept very seriously.
The competition was influenced by Coach's Mother's Day "Hot Mom" Campaign. Once again- no, we're not kidding. In America, Coach has recently seen a slow decrease in sales. Apparently, Coach bags have been criticized for being "mom bags" and lacking personality. Coach's China branch decided to use this to their advantage.
With the help of social media, the China branch ensured that their products gave a youthful feel. They worked in the idea of mom's feeling even more youthful after purchasing a Coach bag. They then launched the "Hot Mom" campaign and sales have gone up nearly 40% this year.
Inspired by this idea, Weibo launched the "Hot Mom" photo competition. The competition proved to be a success. Tons of moms took part in it to show off their beautiful and youthful looks.
While many people seemed pleased with the competition, others seemed uncomfortable with the whole ordeal.
MailOnline remarked "Some of the mothers look so similar to their daughters it is difficult to tell them apart and instead they look like sisters." Shanghiist shared the same discomfort and agreed that it was often very difficult to tell who was the child and who was the mother.
MailOnline also commented that motherhood was already stressful enough. Jezebel highly agreed and said, "As if beauty culture didn't already put enough pressure on us to never start looking old, working tirelessly to turn us all into a diverse chorus of consumer Queen Grimhildes."
As the growing pressure to be beautiful gets even heavier in Asia, is it right to pin these expectations onto mothers as well? Be a good mother, wife, and now maintain your youth until your own daughter reaches adulthood. Are we asking for too much?
Or is this simply a way to keep mothers healthy and active? Maybe this is a way to congratulate the mothers who worked hard to stay healthy? Tell us what you think.

Hello everybody,
This morning I woke up to find that System Mechanic screwed up Zimbra. I made the mistake of setting System Mechanic to automatically clean up the registry and I have a feeling that it deleted something it had no business in deleting. Anyway, I had problems with IE9 and got that straightened out by uninstalling it and reinstalling it.
Zimbra wouldn't launch, so I figured I would just uninstall it and reinstall it and sync up the accounts again. However, when I tried to reinstall it, it completes the reinstall but when I click the OK button after it finishes, I get the following message "Can't find script engine "VBScript for script "C:\Program Files (x86)\Zimbra\Zimbra Desktop\win32\zdrun.vbs."
Anybody have any ideas about how I can get it to reinstall? I'm not sure what version I was using but I'm pretty sure it was 7.?.? .
Thanks for any help you can give.
P.S. Somehow System Restore got turned off on my computer and I do not have any system restore points. I believe I removed some Dell software that did the same thing and didn't think of going in to System Restore to make sure it was on after I removed the Dell software. So, I can't try that.

1970 Plymouth Duster - Too Pretty to RaceWritten by on October 1, 2008 Contributors: Robert J. Briar Emilio Glano sets out to build a '70 Duster that could steal the show in more ways than one.
The A-Body has to be the absolute best Mopar platform to build a drag car off of. They can be had on the cheap, and their small size and chassis give them serious potential in the 1320. Emilio Glano set out to build a serious race car that could win shows, and the final product was this '70 Duster. In June of 1989, Emilio purchased the A-Body for a cool 5-grand. It took a six-year project build in order to get the car running in 1995, and it was finally painted in 1997. "I liked the car and it was a four-speed so I was sold," he recalls. The plans called for a serious buildup that could reward Emilio with 9-second time slips and success on the show circuit.
The factory chassis benefits from a slew of aftermarket goodies that help the blue Duster apply all the small-block power to the ground. Bruce Blair from Extreme Engineering performed all the modifications to the chassis. This included moving the shocks inboard to make room for the massive 29.5x15x50 Mickey Thompson slicks mounted to Weld Pro Stars. The rear suspension consists of 12-way adjustable Competition Engineering magnum shocks with 150lb springs and a Competiton Engineering 33-inch ladder bar. The Dana 60 rearend was shortened and uses disc brakes to bring everything to a halt. Inside the massive rear are a spool, 4.88 gears, and strange axles. Up front, the stock suspension was mostly retained. The most notable changes are '73 Duster control arms and spindles with disc brakes. Competition engineering three-way adjustable shocks work with 6 cylinder torsion bars to control weight transfer. A matching set of Weld wheels in 15x3.5 use 26-inch Mickey Thompson front runners. To keep things safe and NHRA-legal is a 10-point cage and rear mounted battery and 10 gallon fuel cell.
Powering the Plymouth is, surprisingly, a 389 small-block. This highly massaged Mopar was built by Precision Automotive in Simsbury, Connecticut. Ross flat-top pistons are connected to BME rods and a Mopar Performance steel 3.79-inch stroke crankshaft. A Moroso electric water pump and Flexlite electric fan keep things cool. The camshaft is a custom hydraulic roller with a "big" duration with a "bigger" lift. Emilio didn't want to disclose his great combination to the world, but, we assure you, it works. A pair of Joey Arrington Racing aluminum cylinder heads received a nice porting and polishing with a 3-angle valve job. They use 2.08-inch stainless steel intake and a 1.60-inch stainless steel exhaust valves from Manley. The massive cam is contained by a set of triple spring valvesprings with 1.60 intake/1.55 exhaust Jesel roller rockers. An Edelbrock Victor Jr. aluminum intake manifold is mated to a Holley Dominator 1050 adds the air and fuel. This is ignited with an electric Mallery Unilite ignition system with an MSD coil and Moroso wires. Custom 1 7/8-inch headers feed a 3-inch collector and Flowmaster. To drive the A-Body forward, a '95 Liberty 5-speed transmission with a Ram clutch is used. "I enjoy shifting my own gears," he says.
All the bodywork was performed by Emilio, who owns and operates Superior Autobody in North Haven, Connecticut, and he chose the bold paint scheme. The base color is Q-electric Blue. On top of that, he applied a custom graphic that uses blue, purple, red, orange, maroon, and green. The front and rear bumpers were replaced with fiberglass and painted over, as well. Inside the A-Body, Autometer gauges were added for their increased accuracy. The stock black interior was either refurbished or replaced with reproduction parts, and a Simpson 5-point safety harness keeps Emilio inside his Jazz Glass seats.
Emilio's original goals were certainly achieved, save for one exception: He still hasn't won any car shows. "I'm too busy racing!" he exclaims. He claims to put about 1,000 miles a year on the car a quarter mile at a time. That's 4,000 passes down the strip in this show quality car. Who would have thought? His best ET to date has been a 9.93 at 137 mph. That's impressive for any naturally aspirated car, especially one powered by a small-block. It just goes to show how great these A-Bodies really are.

All business! The massive 15-inch-wide tires are there for a reason, and that's to scramble for traction as Emilio unleashes 389 cubic inches.The orginal 340 now boasts a healthy 389 cubic inches. It was built by Precision Automotive and uses only the best internal parts including a pair of heavily worked Joey Arrington Racing cylinder heads.Inside the Duster is a relatively mild cabin. The only aftermarket additions were for function and not form. The 10-point rollbar and 5-point harness keep Emilio safe in case of a disaster, and Autometer gauges tell him about all his Plymouth's vitals.

Fairview Heights, Ill (KSDK) -- A Fairview Heights man admitted producing child pornography after undercover officers busted him trying to distribute content.
U.S. Attorney Stephen Wigginton of the Southern District of Illinois said Andrew Gerald Millas, 43, pleaded guilty Tuesday to three counts of production of child pornography and one count of transportation of child pornography.
Boise, Idaho detectives contacted Millas through online chats regarding postings he made on a site regarding distributing child pornography, Wigginton said. Millas sent the undercover officers child porn images and also broadcast a live sex act with a minor to them via a web cam.
The Boise Police Department contacted the Fairview Heights Police Department and he was arrested.
The FBI examined Millas' computer and found files of Millas having sexual relations with a 16-year-old child and other movies Millas made, according to Wigginton.
Millas is scheduled to be sentenced on January 14, 2013.

No problem Rich. No offense taken.
As a matter of fact, I work in such an industry right now. Most of what we design and implement are based on using specific components and meeting certain performance criteria (in my case fluid mechanical systems). As to the physical layout of those components, that we determine to meet the criteria specified by the customer. In certain cases from one ship to another (we build ships for the Navy) components unrelated to my piping system require changing the geometry of my system while maintaining the specified criteria.
IOW, we use the components specified, using the materials specified, and meet the performance criteria specified and still have a different physical arrangement from ship to ship. This same premise applies at scale ranging from large piping systems to electronic components. Using the requested parts and meeting the specified performance in different configurations. It's done all the time in engineering design.
Ships I can understand. There's no way every ship in the fleet is gonna be the same. Or even every destroyer within a class. And piping runs can vary just as conduit runs can vary. What I'm talking about are "Identical Specifications". That only means one thing to me.
In the case of a Bud bottle, a deviation from specs is a deviation from brand recognition.
Not quite what I was talking about. The molds for the bottles are hand made (or were, way back when) and if one mold happened to have an extra or a missing eagle, Bud would consider letting that out on the market unacceptable and would take steps that would terrify a bottle supplier financially. They want each bottle to match the specs they send the glass house, they want identical bottles.
I can't tell you the number of times I've gotten a replacement part that the dealer such as Chevy and from a store such as NAPA and in each case the part was different from the original, but was considered equivalent to OEM...I'm just sayin'
Yeah, I've gone thru that too, but the screw holes were always where they were supposed to be and the parts fit. You can't say that about a 24-500 and a 24-200. I have been told that the specs were "identical". That would mean to me that I can take my owned 24-200 and put any part from the 24-500 in it and it will work. I don't think that's true.

I didn't draw any super duper limited entry units this year, so I'll be needing some GPS coordinates to your best elk spots. You can PM me, if you don't want to post your honey holes on the internetz.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Also, I only have 3 days to hunt, so the coordinates you send need to be a pretty much slam dunk to kill a bull.

Sports*i is developed with the concept of creating a comfortable ride for the street and performance for the circuit or windy roads. This suspension also features wide range of setting to suit the driving conditions.
Why spend all day at the track dialing in your suspension when you should be on the track enjoying the experience. Damper and camber adjustments should not be a definitive factor, nor should you spend all day adjusting your suspension settings at the track. Drive to the track, on the track and drive home in comfort. Enjoy driving again with the RS*R Sports-i coilovers.
Recommended for the following users:
- Comfortable ride and handles well on windy corners
- Want to track the car on a circuit

Technology of RS-R's Hand Assembled Mono-Tube Dampers
The RS-R coilovers are all monotube hand assembled systems specifically designed to improve ride quality, performance, and comfort. Utilizing components such as; laser cut upper mounts, hand welded lower brackets, vehicle specific valving, are all assembled by hand to ensure quality and detail.
Utilizing Urethane bushing instead of bearing to reduce excessive vibrations from every day driving, as well as minimizing noises from suspension movements.
On MacPherson type suspension, as the suspension rotates along with the steering wheel, the coil springs may be prone to twisting. RS-R suspension utilizes roller bearings to eliminate spring twist noise. Rubber padding is utilized to help eliminate potential noise from suspension movements.
Damper adjustment dials are up to 36 way adjustable to tune the shocks compression and rebound to each individuals needs for almost any driving condition.
If desired, the upper mounts on select vehicles can add 1.5 degree of camber from the preset setting by unbolting the upper mount and rotating the plate 180 degrees. (for more precise control of camber, adjustable camber plates are available for select models)

Not to be outdone by Rafisca, Andy Murray and the WAG-alicious Kim Sears switched into vacay mode and hit the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas for some R + R before the Brit baller resumes training in Miami. (Edit: Looks like he's already there.)
Okay Muzz. You're in a tropical paradise sunning next to your gorgeous, nearly-naked girlfriend (looking sexy in tini-wini white bikini I might add) and what do you do? The very thing that allegedly got you dumped by said gorgeous girlfriend - gaming. Could that be why Kim seems to be searching for something, anything, to do?
Believe me, I understand her predicament (my other half has THE addiction.) It's not easy having a three-way relationship, or four based on Muzz's other apparent addiction:
But she's still right there. Dude. Seriously. Put the devices down and learn to relax. You're on vacay with your girl. They'll still be there when you return to reality. But they won't give you a rub down like she will. Uh-uh.

I just found a weird issue with the Outlook connector. When I drag and drop a folder from a PST into the Zimbra mailbox it shows up in Outlook fine and seems to work but when I logon to Zimbra web gui the copied folder does not appear. I logged onto the server and ran gaf on my account and confirmed that the folder is not on the server though Outlook thinks it is.
I know you should use the PST import wizard to do this but as far as I can see there is no reason that doing the copy from Outlook should not work. I did some testing and this happens for more than one PC and mailbox. Also I have tried this from 4.5.5 and get the same problem.
Has anyone else seen this problem?

Hi there
Well...I know there an specific thread dealing with portuguese brazilian translation but i don´t wanna bury a reply into it.
So, here i am test driving the version 8 BETA and we spotted a really bad translation. It is far from what it really means.
At the admin interface there´s the "home" button, which means "go back to start page". It was translated literally to "Residência" (the pt-br word for home). It should read "Página Inicial" or maybe simply "Início". Any of the two, but you should do away with "Residência".
I don´t know what´s the status about joining the translation effort....i would like to help if possible.

The Human Rights Clinic is a community of advocates engaged in innovative education, social justice, critical reflection, and scholarly research.
Each of these pillars of the Clinic is mutually reinforcing, providing fertile ground for a critical human rights praxis. The Clinic's methodology is collaborative, rigorous, and self-reflexive. The Clinic is a unique space for the education of strategic and creative advocates, who pursue social justice in partnership with civil society and communities, and critically engage with the human rights field's existing approaches and work to advance human rights methodologies and scholarship. The Clinic aims to provide a foundation for students to engage in lifelong social justice education and advocacy.
The Clinic integrates social justice work and pedagogy through Seminars, Clinic Projects, and Team Meetings. The Seminars provide a map of the terrain of international human rights advocacy, including the field's dominant forms of action, strategies, methods, and critiques. The Seminars provide a scaffold so that advocates can learn to maneuver within the complex legal and advocacy human rights field. Clinic members assess where they and human rights projects are positioned, the available tools or routes for action, and how to ethically, pragmatically, and responsibly choose which steps to take towards which ends. Students learn the fundamental aspects of human rights work, including: project selection, design, and strategy; choice and sequence of advocacy tactics; fact-finding methodologies and evidence assessment; interdisciplinary research methods; interviewing witnesses, experts, and perpetrators; digital and physical security; report and brief-writing; using judicial and quasi-judicial processes; advocacy options at the local, national, regional, and international levels; engaging the press and using social media; mitigating vicarious trauma and promoting resilience; ethical frameworks and the navigation of ethical dilemmas; and accountability and project evaluation. Seminars are taught through an array of pedagogical methods, including lectures and expert guest lectures, student-led discussions and presentations, in-class project workshopping, and simulations. Seminar readings are drawn from a variety of sources and disciplines, and readings are accompanied by Guiding Questions and written assignments, to facilitate focused preparation for class. In addition to Seminars, students meet regularly with the Clinic's professors and supervisors for small group intensive theoretical and tactical discussions.
Students in the Clinic are assigned to Clinic Projects in small teams. This aspect of the Clinic functions similarly to a non-governmental organization, and the Clinic pursues a range of human rights projects each year, generally in partnership with civil society organizations and communities. The Projects address marginalized, urgent, and complex human rights issues around the world. Projects vary from year to year – in 2014-2015, they included work on targeted killings and drone strikes, corporate accountability for sexual violence in Papua New Guinea, environmental harm in the extractive industry, police violence in Peru, armed conflict in the Central African Republic, and access to justice in the United States. Working in small teams, students take on leadership roles in Clinic Projects, and, together with partner NGOs and communities, students work to advance social justice and to directly and collectively implement, test, and reflect upon the trainings of the Seminars, with the resources, guidance, feedback and evaluation of project supervisors. Students meet weekly with their Project Teams to advance their projects and think critically about their work. Project supervisors provide resources, guidance, feedback and evaluation to refine the advocacy. In addition to their leadership on Clinic Projects, Clinic members are assigned to an additional project in which their role is to offer constructive critique and to workshop concerns and solutions.
The Clinic fosters accountability and a self-reflective ethic through in-depth supervisor feedback, project workshops, student-to-student feedback sessions, and continuous evaluation of the Clinic and its Projects. The Clinic interrogates its own foundations, goals, ethics, language, methods and effectiveness, and acknowledges the limits of human rights discourse. The Clinic seeks to employ a transparent and evolving pedagogy, and students are active partners in building upon prior Clinic practice and are engaged in building the methods, pedagogy, and institution of the Clinic itself through the course of the year. Students are involved in institutionalizing lessons learned for future Clinic students, and Clinic alumni can become advisors to the Clinic. The Clinic is also a laboratory for testing and modeling new and innovative modes of human rights work, with a focus on enhancing human rights methods through interdisciplinary partnerships. Clinic Projects are also designed to enable the production of research with broader applicability to the human rights field, and students and supervisors are supported in pursuing scholarly research and writing related to their Clinic Projects.
** Human Rights Clinic Mentorship Program**
Accountability for "Targeted Killings" and Drone Strikes: In September 2014, the Clinic launched a new project to promote accountability for US "targeted killings" and drone strikes. This work built upon prior work undertaken by the Clinic under the direction of Naureen Shah. The Clinic worked with U.S. and international civil society groups to develop joint NGO letters to both the UN and the US government urging greater transparency, accountability, and compliance with international law in the use of drones for lethal targeting. The Clinic also prepared extensive research on advocacy work and strategies, hosted strategy meetings with civil society organizations, and conducted consultations with military, civil society, UN, and international law actors, as well as journalists and Yemeni experts to develop new advocacy projects to address drone strikes.
Armed Conflict in the Central African Republic: In 2014-2015, the Human Rights Clinic developed a new partnership and project with a Central African Republic (CAR) NGO to support their work related to war crimes investigations, accountability, and the promotion of peace and reconciliation in the country. In December 2013, a brutal civil war erupted in the CAR, with frequent occurrences of war crimes and widespread displacement of the civilian population. There is now a UN peacekeeping mission in the country, although humanitarian conditions remain poor for many residents, and there is widespread impunity for war crimes. The Clinic designed a joint project with CAR civil society to develop a secure war crimes evidence database, prepare legal advice on the elements of war crimes and international humanitarian law violations, and guidelines on gathering and storing evidence. In June 2015, Knuckey traveled to the CAR to support the domestic NGO's investigations.
Business and Human Rights in the Global Economy: Peru. In 2014, the Human Rights Clinic launched a new effort to support communities and social organizations mobilizing against a proposed gold mining project known as Conga in Cajamarca, Peru. Community members fear that the project, if allowed to go forward, will result in negative impacts to the environment and human health stemming primarily from harm to water quality and access. Local communities say that the mere existence of the project has already adversely impacted human rights, calling attention to violence against protesters by security forces acting on behalf of the company, and harassment and efforts to forcibly displace those living near the mine concession area. The Clinic is supporting the affected communities through an exploration of the responsibility of the different companies and institutions involved in the project (including a U.S. mining company and the International Financial Corporation of the World Bank) in light of the application of international legal norms and standards. In March 2015, the Clinic traveled to Lima and Cajamarca to meet with organizations, activists, and affected communities to discuss and advance legal strategies seeking to stop the project. The Clinic also supported a legal action in a U.S. federal court seeking discovery of information held by the U.S. company regarding an incident of violent repression of protest activity at the mine site in November 2011 that left many protesters injured.
Business and Human Rights in the Global Economy: Papua New Guinea. HRI and the Human Rights Clinic support communities dealing with the environmental and social consequences of the Porgera Gold Mine, a mine owned by a Canadian company, in the remote highlands of Papua New Guinea. The thousands of indigenous people living in villages surrounding the mine fear that mine operations have polluted their rivers and streams, contaminated rainwater, caused erosion and landslides, and contributed to poor air quality and low crop yield – but have had little access to independent assessments of these environmental concerns. Residents requested the Clinic to carry out independent research of any environmental and health impacts. After extensive research and preparation – including on rights-based mixed-methods research, the rights to water and health, international and domestic environmental law, and interviewing technique – in December 2014-January 2015, the Clinic traveled to the region along with environmental scientists from the Earth Institute of Columbia University, as well as a film-maker. The team conducted an interdisciplinary rights-based study, blending physical science and human rights methodology, to assess the mine's environmental and human rights impacts. Sarah Knuckey also traveled to the region for a month in July 2015 to carry out additional research. The results of the study will be published and shared with the communities in early 2016.
Separately, the Clinic also works on issues related to physical abuse by the mine's security guards. For years, residents have alleged that mine security guards engaged in beatings and sexual assault, including gang rapes, of local residents. After earlier work investigating these violations, the Human Rights Institute and the Human Rights Clinic have been analyzing the mining company's recent efforts to compensate sexual assault victims through the creation of a non-judicial remedy mechanism. A major report and an academic article will be published in 2015 as part of a multi-pronged analysis of corporate non-judicial grievance mechanisms for human rights abuses. In October 2014, the Institute and Clinic also hosted with EarthRights International a workshop of international experts to discuss community-led grievance mechanisms, as an alternative model for remedying these types of abuses.

Salted Nut Bars
-makes 32 bars
½ cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, softened
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 ½ cups flour
Mix to a crumbly mixture and press into the bottom of a buttered 9X13" pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
Pour a 12 ounce can of mixed nuts over the crust.
Melt and mix:
6 oz. package of butterscotch chips
2 ½ Tblsp. of butter
½ cup Karo clear syrup
Pour evenly over nuts and bake for 10 minutes more at 350 degrees.
- We all really liked the premium nut mix without peanuts, more cashews!
- Like chocolate? You can mix a 6 oz. package of chocolate chips with the nuts. Sprinkle both over the warm crust and then continue with the rest of recipe as written.
- When you bake the butterscotch mixture it will get bubbly and slightly darker, that's good, because when it cools it will turn clear and shiny, more like candy than gooey butterscotch.
- Do cool before you cut them.
- Do NOT refrigerate before you cut these, or they will be tooooo difficult to cut.

I can't figure out if their size will hurt us or our lack of size will be a ***** for them. I will say that we are better equipped to check P. Jackson this year.
Prediction: We win because of the home crowd and coaching but it will be in doubt nearly the entire game.
We will blow another 2nd half lead. Book it.
See ISU VS WVU, KU, OSU, Iowa
The only question is will we be able to win. I think we will. After blowing a double digit lead, we win 73-72.

Multi-Family House Plans for the Spring Building Season
The spring building season is almost upon us. It is a popular time for building multi-family house plans, like duplexes, townhouses and apartment plans. For property owners wanting to earn income, a multi-family home plan works well for rental property. These building structures feature two or more distinct living areas separated by walls or floors. They offer the same appeal as single-family homes, and in most cases, multi-family house plans are designed and built for their economic construction. The House Plan Shop offers a broad range of multi-family homes designs including:
- Duplex House Plans
- 3-4 Unit Multi-Family House Plans
- Townhouse Plans – Upscale multi-family plans consisting of two or more units designed with special features and extra sophistication not usually found with typical multi-family plans.
- Apartment Plans (5+ units)
Multi-family house plans are often built in densely populated areas providing the maximum number of living units while making the most of the available property. Also, duplexes and apartment buildings are quite popular in small college towns and near large universities where a significant number of students are from out of town and need temporary housing or rental property until they complete their coursework. If you're interested in building a multi-family house plan this spring, take some time to browse all of our plan collections. There's no better time than springtime to build a multi-family plan!

No better setting can be found in Louisville for a true spirit filled evening than that of the Conrad-Caldwell Mansion on St. James Court in the Belgravia Historic District. The 6th Annual Spirit Ball brings together the descendants of Theophile Conrad and William E. Caldwell together with the Louisville community to celebrate the history of Victorian Louisville, the most haunted neighborhood in the city. The Spirit Ball provides guests an opportunity to celebrate the Halloween holiday in true Victorian style complete with lavish costumes and fantastic fare while benefiting the Conrad-Caldwell House and its continued upkeep and operation. Many gentlemen wore tuxedos and top hats appropriate for the times as the ladies donned gowns and beautiful period hairstyles. The families of Conrad and Caldwell host their family reunion every year and for the past several years chose to celebrate their heritage with guests.
A brief history of the home at the corner of St. James Court and Magnolia Street is riddled with the history of Louisville's elite residents. The mansion, completed in 1893 by famed architect Arthur Loomis, was the home to Louisville business man Theophile Conrad and wife Mary until his death in 1905. At this time another Louisville business man, William Caldwell bought the property bordered at the north by Central Park. Mr. Caldwell lived in "Louisville's Castle" for 35 years at which time the Louisville Presbyterian Church acquired the home. In 1972 the home was placed on the Register of National Historic Places and currently operates as a museum by the St. James Court Historic Foundation. The home features a Bedford limestone exterior complete with sculptured animals including gargoyles and towers in pyramid, hexagon, and coned shapes. The design of the home meant to welcome guests in a fitting Victorian era manner giving way to raised and carved arches, high ceilings, stained glass windows, reception hall with a very large staircase, and marbled fireplaces. At the time of completion, the home's attributes included indoor plumbing and electric lighting as well as seven types of hardwood adding to the stunning presence on St. James Court.
The welcoming hall of the home allowed guests a fantastic backdrop to exchange pleasantries while sipping champagne. The Spirit Ball provided make-up artists, fortune tellers, and a photographer to compliment the costumed affair. The ornate spirit of the guests added to that of the home as guests traveled through the vast space inside, noting the Edwardian Age pieces acquired for restoration. The soiree invited guests to tour the home as well as dine with decadent and creative cuisine in candle light. Musical temptations brought many couple to their feet for a fun filled evening in 19th century Louisville. The site of elaborately dressed women in the arms of their gentlemanly escorts provided a glimpse into the beauty and grandeur of life in the Victorian Age in Louisville.

I have managed to use IMAPSync to move all the accounts over, but I cant seem to move the emails within those accounts. I cant seem to install dovecot which was my original idea, I think the SME 7 repositories arnt in existance anymore? Whats the best way to migrate everything over including emails and aliases without knowing the users passwords? I have looked everywhere for the answer from the zimbra wiki to forum posts but nothing seems to work for me :-( (guess its something I am doing!) I am using zimbra on ubuntu server 12.04.

The Asia-Pacific Trade and Investment Report (APTIR) is a publication prepared by the Trade and Investment Division of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific. It provides information on and independent analyses of regional trends and developments in trade and investment; emerging issues in trade, investment and trade facilitation policies; and impacts of these policies on countries' abilities to meet the challenges of achieving inclusive and sustainable development.
Simplification and harmonization of trade data and documentary requirements can contribute significantly to the reduction of time and costs for international trade transactions. Harmonizing data used in trade documents and aligning them with international standards also ensures data interoperability among the various parties engaged in a trade transaction.
The Asia-Pacific Development Journal (APDJ) is published twice a year by the Macroeconomic Policy and Development Division of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP).
The primary objective of the APDJ is to provide a platform for the exchange of knowledge, experience, ideas, information and data on all aspects of economic and social development issues and concerns facing the region and to stimulate policy debate and assist in the formulation of policy.
High food prices have put increasing inflationary pressures across the Asia-Pacific region and threatened food security. Bad weather in important food-producing countries and speculation in commodity markets have affected global food supplies and added volatility to booming commodity markets that have been fueled in the long-term by increasing global demand. High food prices have threatened to slowdown economic growth, poverty reduction and inclusive sustainable development throughout the region.
Asia-Pacific MDGs reports have been produced since 2004 by the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific / Asian Development Bank / United Nations Development Programme regional partnership to support the achievements of the MDGs.
There is ample evidence that successful implementation of bilateral or regional trade and economic integration initiatives would have a very significant impact on intraregional trade in Asia and the Pacific. However, little is known about the level of intraregional trade costs in the region and to what extent these costs may have decreased over time. This paper introduces new aggregate and sectoral estimates of bilateral trade costs in Asia and the Pacific available in an updated and extended version of the ESCAP Trade Cost Database (Version 2).
The Single Window Planning and Implementation Guide contains managerial guidelines for policy managers, policymakers and those who are tasked to plan and manage the information technology-enabled Single Window development projects for simplifying cross-border trade procedures and document requirements within developing economies and transition economies.
The Low Carbon Green Growth Roadmap for Asia and the Pacific explores the opportunities that a low carbon green growth path offers to the region. It articulates five tracks on which to drive the economic system change necessary to pursue low carbon green growth as a new economic development path.
Fifty one case studies and eight policy papers that were developed as associated products of ESCAP's Low Carbon Green Growth Roadmap for the Asia and the Pacific. The Roadmap may be accessed from this link: http://www.unescap.org/resources/low-carbon-green-growth-roadmap-asia-an....
While regional countries are driving the global "green growth" agenda, policymakers are facing a new economic reality and heightened uncertainty. The challenge of eco-efficient economic growth and inclusive resource use is critical and growing in several countries. Fundamental, rather than incremental changes are needed - Governments must therefore take the lead in re-orienting both the "visible" and the "invisible" economic infrastructure. At the same time the implications of heightened uncertainty and risk for policymaking requires more attention.

* Cardboard Box Fun - Homemade Machines
We bought a new couch from Ikea last weekend
and the girls took several of the boxes and "repurposed" them....
I came upstairs and found this waiting for me in the hallway.
Two small voices announced,
"Welcome to Machine Alley"
The voices were giggling and sounded a lot like "E" and "C."
First there was this mysterious "Radio Machine" that plays CDs.
According to the sign, you just pop your favorite CD into the slot and it will play.
It really worked.
I did some investigating...A-ha!
I think I know how this machine works.
What's this? A "Math Machine"... hmmm...
wonder how this one works.
The machine told me to write a math problem on a piece of paper
and push it through the slot.
So I did and then these eyes appeared in the window!
Look carefully, do you see them?
Lights started flashing as "E" moved
a flashlight back and forth from inside the box.
Machine Alley even has it's own phone booth.
There is a slot to insert a quarter
and a phone book with real phone numbers
and advertisements for Machine Alley inside.
There was even a "Copy Machine" with a cute robot head.
"C" made the copy machine.
Her big sister helped her with some of the words
and told her how to spell "Copy Machine"
Yes, I believe that is a baby chicken on the sign.
Note, you can only use post it notes in the copy machine.
It has very detailed directions - very helpful.
A sneak peek behind the scenes!
So now you know what my kids were up to this three day weekend.
Have your kids made anything fun with boxes lately?

San Francisco, ST (Sports Network) - Kevin Bailey scored 18 points on 6-of-13
shooting as the Portland Pilots hung on for a 78-76 win over the San Francisco
Dons in West Coast Conference action at Memorial Gym.
Ryan Nicholas tallied 15 points and seven rebounds, while Thomas Van Der Mars
had 14 points and nine boards for Portland (10-17, 3-9 WCC), which has won two
of three. Tanner Riley added 11 points off the bench for the visitors, while
Derrick Rodgers handed out eight assists.
For San Francisco (11-14, 4-8), Cole Dickerson and Chris Adams netted 17
points apiece. De'End Parker (14 points) and Avry Holmes (12 points) were both
strong in reserve roles, and Cody Doolin recorded 11 points and six assists
for the Dons, who had won their previous two games.
Portland outshot San Francisco from the field in the first half, 51.5 percent
to 36.7 percent, to take a 40-33 halftime lead. The Dons kept the game within
striking distance by draining five 3-pointers in the opening 20 minutes.
The Dons came back to take a 47-45 lead with 14:51 to play on a Dickerson
bucket, but the Pilots answered with seven straight points to regain the
advantage. San Francisco wouldn't go away quietly, as it tied the game on a
Parker layup with just over two minutes left, but Van Der Mars responded with
a 2-of-2 trip to the foul line to give Portland the lead for good.
Portland finished the game shooting 50 percent from the field, but it was just
4-of-14 from 3-point range.

The producers of the stalled Allman Brothers biopic have been cited for a "serious safety violation" relating to the death of camera assistant Sarah Jones.
Jones was struck and killed by a train while shooting a dream sequence for the film, titled "Midnight Rider," on a trestle in Wayne County, Georgia in February.
Prosecutors investigating the tragedy filed charges of involuntary manslaughter and criminal trespass against director/producer Randall Miller and producers Jody Savin and Jay Sedrish last month, and now officials at the Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OHSA) are holding Miller and Savin responsible for "one willful and one serious safety violation" stemming from the 27-year-old's death.
Dr. David Michaels, Assistant Secretary of Labor for OSHA, says, "Employers are responsible for taking the necessary precautions to protect workers' health and safety, and the entertainment industry is no exception. It is unacceptable that Film Allman LLC knowingly exposed their crew to moving trains while filming on a live track and railroad trestle."
Eight other crew members were also injured in the incident, with many joining Jones' parents in taking civil action against filmmakers.
OSHA authorities suggest Film Allman chiefs should be fined $74,900 for the violations, including exposing employees to "struck-by and fall hazards".
Owners of the company, which is registered to the same address as Miller and his film partner and wife Savin's firm Unclaimed Freight Productions, have 15 business days to appeal the findings.
News of the OSHA's findings emerge hours after "Midnight Rider" executives filed a legal complaint against their insurers at New York Marine, after they announced they will no longer honor their policy to cover incidents onset when filming resumes.
Production on "Midnight Rider," based on the memoir of Gregg Allman, has been on hold since Jones' death.

Have you been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in the last 5 years? If yes, you may be eligible to help scientists test treatments by participating in an NIH study.
Type 2 diabetes, the most common type of diabetes, usually appears during middle age or older, but it can affect people of any age. People with type 2 diabetes have too much glucose, or sugar, in their blood, and they have trouble converting food to energy. The drug metformin, which helps to control blood glucose, is often the first line of treatment.
If metformin isn't enough to keep blood glucose in check, doctors sometimes add another drug. But no long-term studies have looked at which drug combination works best and has fewer side effects.
To address this issue, NIH launched a long-term clinical trial called the GRADE study. Researchers will examine the benefits and risks of common diabetes drugs used with metformin.
Scientists hope to enroll about 5,000 participants at 37 locations across the country. All volunteers will take metformin, along with a second medication randomly assigned from among 4 classes of drugs approved for use with metformin by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Participants will have their diabetes medications managed free of charge during the study. Other health care must come from participants' own providers.

Columbia, SC (WLTX) - The Richland County Coroner's office has identified a mother of five who was shot to death during a robbery early Monday morning.
According to Coroner Gary Watts, 33-year-old Kelly L. Hunnewell of Columbia was shot on Tommy Circle in Columbia. That's located off of Beltline Boulevard. Previous Coverage: Woman Killed Early Monday Morning
Investigators say the shooting took place at about 3:30 a.m. In a surveillance video released by officers, three suspects can be seen running into the bakery. Interim Columbia Police Chief Ruben Santiago tells us that the individuals attempted to rob Hunnewell.
Santiago says Hunnewell saw the suspects' weapon and tried to get away, and that's when she was shot and killed.
"It is very hard to say what race or age [of the suspects] and this is really a plea to the public, if anyone knows any information about what happened, we are talking about a mother of very young children and we want justice to be served."
Columbia police were called to the scene by a neighbor. The victim was pronounced dead at the scene.
Friends say Hunnewell worked the early shift at a bakery so she could spend her daytime hours with her children.
"This is a member of our community and someone who is just trying to provide for her family and we had individuals that took that away from not only our community but her family as well," said Chief Ruben Santiago.
In the neighborhood that Hunnewell lived in everyone who knew her said she was funny and had an infectious smile.
Shontell Green lives across the street from Hunnewell, she says it is a struggle for her to know that her friend is no longer here.
"I can't it is very painful for me to even think about it, the only thing I could do is think about the kids and be strong for the kids and its sad it's really sad," said Green.
"I hope they catch them, whoever it was I hope they catch them."
If anyone can identify the three suspects pictured, you are asked to please call CrimeStoppers: 888-CRIME-SC (888-274-6378), or TEXT including "TIPSC" and your tip to: CRIMES (274637.)
Tips can be provided anonymously, and tipsters are eligible to receive a reward for information leading to an arrest.

Fiat's Italian-made diesel engine to power Jeep Grand Cherokee
Jan 14, 2013 (Detroit Free Press - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- Jeep is going diesel, courtesy of its Italian parent and partner Fiat.
The best-known American SUV brand will take the wraps off a Jeep Grand Cherokee with a 3.0-liter diesel engine this morning at the 2013 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
The engine is made by VM Motori, an Italian engine manufacturer owned by Fiat.
The Grand Cherokee will get 30 miles per gallon on the highway when equipped with the new diesel engine, which will be paired with a new eight-speed transmission.
It produces 240 horsepower and a whopping 420 pound-feet of torque, which should attract the attention of off-road enthusiasts who have been clamoring for a diesel option for years.
Adding an Italian-made diesel engine to the American SUV brand underscores the technology Chrysler has gained from its partnership with Fiat as it strives to meet more stringent fuel economy standards by 2016.
The diesel engine will be an option on the Limited, Overland and Summit versions of the Jeep Grand Cherokee. The price has not been announced.
Chrysler's eight-speed transmission also helps to improve the fuel economy of the Grand Cherokee with a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine by about 10% compared with the outgoing model. On the highway, the Grand Cherokee with the gasoline V6 engine will now get 25 miles per gallon.
The new Grand Cherokee also is getting new head lamps, tail lamps, a new rear spoiler and tailgate along with a number of interior upgrades.
The investment is expected to bolster Jeep's best-selling model, which also is part of Chrysler's export plans.
The Grand Cherokee's new options come less than three years after Chrysler introduced the current generation of the midsize SUV. It was the first fully redesigned car or truck launched by Chrysler after its 2009 government-backed bankruptcy restructuring.
"It reflects a change in our view of product management," said Mike Manley, Jeep president and CEO. "We used to launch a vehicle and for six years just leave it in the market." The Grand Cherokee's U.S. sales increased 24.2% in 2012 to 137,613.
Jeep sold 701,626 SUVs globally in 2012 -- its best year ever.
This year, Manley expects Jeep will get some help from upgrades of other models, including a new six-speed transmission for the smaller Compass and Patriot SUVs, as well as a replacement of the Jeep Liberty that will be revealed later this year.
Both the Compass and Patriot will get a new PowerTech automatic transmission that will help those small SUVs get 30 miles per gallon on the highway.
Liberty was introduced in 2002. Its sales have lagged other compact SUVs and crossovers because the Liberty's off-road trail capability hurt its fuel economy.
Liberty sales increased 13.2% to 75,483 last year, but that is far behind the Honda CR-V's 281,652 and Ford Escape's 261,008.
"Liberty was a niche player, for a number of reasons," Manley said. "Customers really wanted better on-the-road driving dynamics ... so we were absent from most of this market." Jeep is promising that Liberty's replacement, which is expected to be shown in late March at the New York International Auto Show, will have an all-new look and better driving dynamics while retaining some off-road capability.
"What you are going to see is a completely new direction on styling," Manley said.
