MORGANTOWN - Stedman Bailey says he has yet to give thought to skipping his senior season and entering the NFL Draft.
Because of that, West Virginia offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson figured he'd help the Mountaineers' Biletnikoff Award finalist make a decision.
"He'd be stupid to go," Dawson said with a laugh.
Bailey had 11 catches for 159 yards and two touchdowns Saturday against Kansas, in the process passing Tavon Austin for most catches in a season for a junior (106) and pushing his school records for touchdown catches in a season (23) and a career (39). With 106 catches, 1,501 yards and 23 touchdowns, he's got a great shot at that Biletnikoff Award, considering that's seven more scoring receptions than anyone else in the country, and he's in the top five in yards and catches.
Other school records he owns are 13 100-yard games (tied with Austin), single-game receiving yards (303), catches in a game (14), and touchdowns in a game (5). With another 100-catch season, he'd top Austin for most catches in school history. As it is, he's third behind Austin and Jock Sanders.
"It's pretty amazing, but stuff like that is available in this offense," Bailey said. "With Coach (Dana) Holgorsen and those guys coming here, I knew the opportunity would be there for me, so I just tried to do the best I can and do all I can to help the team win."
Frankly, there's little left for Bailey to accomplish at West Virginia, assuming the Mountaineers won't make a surprising run to a national championship next season.
"I would say just to try to finish on top of the NCAA, all the records I could possibly break would probably keep me back," Bailey said.
Dawson says Bailey's first name fits him perfectly.
"Steady Stedman," Dawson called him. "He's been a steady guy in practice, a steady guy on and off the field since we got here. He just has a knack for making plays. He's got great body control. The way he torques his body, the ball seems to just come in. He's got a knack for it. And he's a helluva player."
Geno the Recruiter
Geno Smith, another player whose name sits atop just about everything it can in the Mountaineers record book, cherished Senior Day, both on the field where he completed 23 of 24 passes for 407 yards and three touchdowns, and off it, when he sang Country Roads in the student section.
He said he's loved every minute of his time at WVU, and he won't be afraid to tell any on-the-fence recruit this is the place for him.
"Of course," Smith said. "I wish everyone would come to West Virginia and we just cut the ones we don't want. It doesn't work like that. When I'm talking to recruits, I tell those guys West Virginia is a great place. I'm sure there's other great places out there. It's all based on your specific needs. When I chose West Virginia, I felt that I would be comfortable here and I'd be able to start for at least three years. It happened for me, and I feel like it was a good decision.
"It's down to, really, what the player wants. If he wants to be a great player or just mediocre, or if he wants to be one of the guys at a different school, or if he wants to be the guy at West Virginia."
Tavon's the best?
Regardless of next week's Heisman Trophy presentation, West Virginia players and coaches think they know who the best player in college football is Austin.
"Hands down," Smith said. "The eyeball doesn't lie. There are other great players in the country, but that guy will make anyone miss at any time. And he does what he wants on the field. That's rare."
Holgorsen took it a little further.
"What Tavon did against Oklahoma (572 all-purpose yards), and I've been very vocal about this, it was the single greatest performance I've ever seen," Holgorsen said.
And Dawson took it even further than that.
"He's the best player in the country," Dawson said. "I don't care who gets the award (Heisman), but I've never been around anybody like him and there's not anybody out there like him. You can say what you want to about all of those other guys and that's good and dandy, but I think behind closed doors if you got people in a room that played us, they would tell you who the best player is."
Stick to Basketball
A team doesn't lose 11 games in a season and 21 straight conference games because it's fundamentally sound.
Kansas' follies were on full display against the Mountaineers.
What if the Jayhawks tried 12 defenders? They did. In the second quarter with West Virginia facing a first-and-10 at the Kansas 23, Andrew Buie ran for 8 yards to the 15 before being shoved out of bounds by Tyler Patmon. Then a flag flew. Even with an extra defender, none of them were able to get Buie to the ground.
The Wildcats originally intended to try four fourth-down attempts. They made one, but the others were a disaster.
On the first one, a fourth-and-2, running back James Sims was stopped after a 1-yard gain by Terance Garvin.
In the third quarter, Kansas coach Charlie Weis wanted to try a fourth-and-1, but Wildcats' Michael Cummings was whistled for a false start and they decided to punt.
They also went for it on fourth-and-4 in the final two minutes, but Chris Mathews was dropped for a 3-yard loss by Taige Redman.

You might know about the infection toxoplasmosis in relation to avoiding it during pregnancy by taking precautions with certain foods and the cat's litter box. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Preventing (CDC), some 60 million people in the United States could have toxoplasmosis. Many don't even know it because it can cause an infection with no symptoms or ones that are common to other illnesses.
This infection is caused by a microscopic parasite that can live inside the cells of humans and animals, especially cats and farm animals.
People can catch toxoplasmosis from:
Although infection doesn't normally spread from person to person except through pregnancy, in rare instances toxoplasmosis can contaminate blood transfusions and organs donated for transplantation.
Toxoplasmosis passes from animals to humans, sometimes without causing any symptoms. When kids do have symptoms, they vary depending on the child's age and the immune system's response to the infection. (As with humans, infected cats often don't show any signs of a toxoplasmosis infection.)
Toxoplasmosis infections in people fall into three basic patterns:
When a pregnant woman (even one who has no symptoms) catches toxoplasmosis during pregnancy and remains untreated, there's a chance that she could pass the infection on to her developing fetus. Babies who become infected during their mother's first trimester tend to have the most severe symptoms.
However, it's rare that a woman who got toxoplasmosis before getting pregnant will pass the infection on to her unborn baby because she (and, therefore, her baby) will have built up immunity to the infection. It can occur, though, if a pregnant woman who's had a previous infection becomes immunocompromised and her infection is reactivated. Generally, it's probably a good idea to wait to try to get pregnant until at least 6 months after a toxoplasmosis infection.
Up to 90% of children born with congenital toxoplasmosis have no symptoms early in infancy, but a large percentage will show signs of infection months to years later. The few who show clear signs of infection at birth or shortly after may be born prematurely or are unusually small at birth.
Other signs and symptoms, if there are any, may include:
Some babies with congenital toxoplasmosis have brain and nervous system abnormalities that cause:
They're also at high risk for eye damage involving the retina (the light-sensitive lining at the back of the eye responsible for sight), resulting in severe vision problems.
If a child is born with congenital toxoplasmosis and remains untreated during infancy, there's almost always some sign of the infection (often eye damage) by early childhood to adolescence.
A healthy child who becomes infected with toxoplasmosis may have no symptoms of infection or only a few swollen glands that:
Most kids won't experience any long-term problems if they go undiagnosed and untreated.
Kids whose immune systems are weakened (for example, by AIDS, cancer, or medications taken after organ transplants) are at special risk for severe toxoplasmosis infections. Especially in children with AIDS, toxoplasmosis can attack the brain and nervous system, causing toxoplasmic encephalitis (an inflammation of the brain) with symptoms that include:
Although toxoplasmosis parasites may grow and multiply within a week of entering a person's body, it may be weeks or months before symptoms of infection appear (if they appear at all).
Once someone becomes infected with toxoplasmosis, the infection remains in the body for life, usually in a latent (inactive) form that won't cause side effects or harm. The infection can be reactivated, however, if the immune system becomes compromised by an HIV infection or cancer therapy.
In a child with a healthy immune system, mild symptoms of toxoplasmosis (such as swollen glands) usually pass within a few months, even without medical treatment. But kids born with severe congenital toxoplasmosis may have permanent vision problems or mental retardation. And in a child with a weakened immune system, toxoplasmosis can be fatal.
Doctors can, but rarely do, diagnose toxoplasmosis through laboratory tests that check for microscopic parasites in the blood, spinal fluid, amniotic fluid, placenta, lymph nodes, bone marrow, or other body tissues.
More frequently doctors order blood tests to measure the level of antibodies (substances that are part of the body's defensive immune reaction) produced to fight the parasites.
Sophisticated new genetic tests can identify the DNA-containing genes of toxoplasmosis parasites once they've invaded the body. These tests are especially useful for checking the amniotic fluid for evidence of congenital toxoplasmosis in a fetus. Obstetricians may use ultrasounds to help diagnose congenital toxoplasmosis. But these tests aren't 100% accurate and can lead to false-positive results.
Unless someone has a weakened immune system or is pregnant, there's often no need to treat a toxoplasmosis infection — symptoms (such as swollen glands) usually go away on their own in a few weeks or months. However, kids should always be checked by a doctor because swollen glands can be a sign of other illnesses.
If a pregnant woman develops an infection, a treatment plan will be developed in consultation with her doctor and an infectious disease specialist. Research has shown that treating the mother can help decrease the severity of the disease in the infant but won't necessarily prevent transmission of the infection from mother to child.
Children born with congenital toxoplasmosis are treated with different combinations of anti-toxoplasmosis medications, usually for 1 year after birth. A specialist typically will determine which medications to use and for how long.
In healthy older kids who develop serious toxoplasmosis infections, treatment usually lasts 4 to 6 weeks (or at least 2 weeks after symptoms are gone). Kids with weakened immune systems often need to be hospitalized when they develop toxoplasmosis, and those with AIDS may need to take anti-toxoplasmosis medication for life.
Call your doctor immediately if your child develops symptoms of toxoplasmosis and:
Also call the doctor if your otherwise healthy child develops any of the symptoms of toxoplasmosis.
If you're pregnant, call your doctor immediately if you notice even one swollen gland, especially if you've been exposed to cats or have eaten raw or undercooked meat.
If your cat is kept indoors and never fed raw or undercooked meat, then your family's feline probably has a low risk of catching or spreading toxoplasmosis. Still, you can also catch it from eating raw meats or uncooked produce that's contaminated.

Rockets and Missiles
The rocket, a reaction-propulsion device that carries all of its propellants internally, has been around for almost a millennium since its invention in China. But the twentieth-century saw a technological explosion of new rocket-propulsion systems, using both solid and liquid propellants. Rocket-powered vehicles were developed for two primary purposes: spaceflight and weaponry. Guided missiles also appeared in the mid-twentieth century with air-breathing propulsion systems, and these are included in the National Air and Space Museum's Rockets and Missiles collection. Among its highlights are: the world's best collection of artifacts from American rocket pioneer Robert Goddard, an extensive collection of German World War II missile and rocket artifacts, a large number of American Cold War missiles and launch vehicles, and rocket engines from small thrusters to a gigantic F-1 motor from the Saturn V Moon rocket.

Make every step count with the Smartwool PhD line of Run Elite Socks. Light cushioning provides just enough padding for long runs on the pavement, while the merino wool/nylon blend naturally wicks moisture, regulates your foot's temperature, and resists odor-causing microbial growth.
Whatever your trail, the PhD Outdoor sock collection is made for mileage. Bi-elastic construction for focused fit, flex, and recovery create a sock that stays exactly where you need it to be. And our patented ReliaWool™ technology provides superior durability for socks that'll go more miles than your shoes.
SmartWool is proud to say that its socks are made here in the United States.
Since the 12th century, Merino wool has been one of the world's most sought after commodities. Until the 18th century, export of one of these prized sheep from Spain was a punishable offense. Thankfully, though, this is no longer the case, and the pedigree of Merino remains just as it was centuries ago. You needn't buy Merino yarn in tonnage exclusively from the nobility of Southern Europe; instead, it's readily available from brands like SmartWool.
These days, the lush, jagged mountains of New Zealand play host to the majority of the world's Merino sheep, and the same holds true for SmartWool. It works with small, experienced growers in this region to ensure the best quality yarn, which is vital given that a Merino sheep is only shorn once per year. And to add some perspective, one sheep's wool equates to only 40 pairs of SmartWool socks or seven mid-weight base layers. For this reason, every sheep is considered precious; meaning that SmartWool lives by the ethos that good wool requires a happy sheep. That's why SmartWool pioneered the ban of Muesling sheep in New Zealand and refuses to source from any growers that practice this technique of wool removal. It was also the first to extend long-term contracts to growers, providing a sense of security that enables them to continue extending quality care and supervision.
This care and supervision is extremely important when you take into account that the SmartWool flocks require an extraordinary amount of care. In order to produce its tights, gloves, hats, and running socks, the Merino sheep are bred and nourished to produce wool with a very specific thickness, length, and color. This plays well to quality control, but the strong oversight also ensures an ethical treatment of the animals, as well as an ethical business practice around the globe.
Continuing this philosophy, you'll find that 90% of SmartWool's products are knit in America. Your favorite slippers, beanie, pants, or mittens are all ethically produced in encouraging work environments. This means that you get a product that's made with love—from start to finish. But the question begs to be asked: Why wool in the first in the first place? Merino wool, specifically, is naturally hydrophobic, highly breathable, and antimicrobial. In other words, it truly is the "smart" wool. Merino's engrained characteristics lend themselves perfectly to products like the t-shirt and sock, because merino fibers wick and breathe better than most engineered synthetic fibers, while also neutralizing odors and providing a softer hand against the skin.
Sure, getting to the finished product isn't easy, but SmartWool wouldn't have it any other way. The end result is, after all, a remarkable thing to behold–a natural product, with an ethical footprint, that outperforms nearly every synthetic on the market. It doesn't get much better than that.

For super-clean, revitalized skin and a clearer complexion, consider using a facial mask once or twice weekly. While you may think that a mask is just for women, nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, masks for men have become increasingly popular, not only for their cleansing, exfoliating, toning and rejuvenating qualities but also as a form of relaxation – and we can all use any relief we can get from the stress and strain of our daily lives, both at work and at home. A facial mask can detoxify, purify and renew your skin with active antioxidant ingredients. While working to unclog your pores from oily residues and deep-down dirt and grime, a mask absorbs impurities from your skin, leaving your face smoother, softer and fresher.
Masks can also help to dry up blemishes, heal skin irritations and promote new cell growth, preparing your skin for a closer shave. And perhaps best of all, a facial mask helps to ward off signs of premature aging, restoring elasticity, reducing lines and wrinkles and leaving your skin smoother, fresher and younger-looking.

The server was performing without any issue, once i discovered that all mail messages received to any mail box coming with updated 2 hours . I have tried to check the server time it self and it was fine, also the output of zmprov ga showing the right time zone .. and also from web admin the COS was showing the correct time zone .. the server wasn't configured with any NTP server before; So i did an ntp configuration .. the weird thing is that the time received from the NTP global server was lagged by 2 hours than my time But the mail box time problem was solved however the system time lagged by two hours .. I found that the problem happened only when the time is correct on the server
Now the situation is the following
- All mails received in a correct time ..
- The system time including logs set to a different time than mine (-2 hours)

We've just upgraded from ZCS 6 to ZCS 8
We're using an external windows email clients on some of the windows boxes in the office (eM Client v5)
The caldav calendar functionality works fine and changes made on either side are mirrored AOK
What we're having some problems with the task list though
Items created on the web interface cannot be seen using the windows client (folders cannot be seen/created)
So any tasks modified or created on the local client are not uploaded to the caldav share
Strangely, even if you goto tasks menu on the web client and select "find shares" there are *no* task shares available.
Is there something I'm missing that I need to do to enable tasks?
It all worked fine "out of the box" on ZCS 6 so I'm a bit lost as to what to do now
Any help, even "You silly sod, do this and it will all work" or "Sorry, that's no longer supported" style responses would be much appreciated

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) -- Alabama athletic director Mal Moore has been hospitalized with heart problems.
University spokeswoman Debbie Lane said Wednesday that Moore has been admitted to Brookwood Hospital in Birmingham for tests and treatment "regarding pulmonary problems." She said no further information was available on the 73-year-old's status.
The AD spent two days in DCH Regional Medical Center in Tuscaloosa in August with an irregular heartbeat. His doctor, James B. Robinson, said at the time that the tests came back negative and Moore was cleared to return to work immediately.
Moore has led his alma mater's athletic department since 1999 and hired Nick Saban, who has led the Crimson Tide to three national titles. The football building is named after the former assistant coach under Bear Bryant and Gene Stallings.

WASHINGTON–The Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe (U.S. Helsinki Commission) announced the following briefing:
Online Safety under Repressive Regimes: What is the Responsibility of Technology Companies?
Friday, October 19, 2012
10:00 am
Room 2203 Rayburn House Office Building
U.S. technology companies are increasingly aware of the risks of working in repressive countries where the internet has become a tool of censorship and surveillance. How these companies respond to these risks has life and death consequences for the activists who use these important communication tools. The Global Online Freedom Act (GOFA, H.R. 3605), introduced by Chairman Chris Smith (NJ-04), requires technology companies that are listed on U.S. stock exchanges to disclose their human rights due diligence policies. The measure is designed to provide users with information on how companies work with repressive governments so that they can safeguard their information and communications. The panel will address the current practices of tech companies, the role of the Global Network Initiative (GNI) in fostering greater transparency, as well as what additional actions companies should be taking to safeguard their users.
The following panelists are scheduled to participate:
Amol Mehra, Coordinator, International Corporate Accountability Roundtable
Susan Morgan, Executive Director, Global Network Initiative
Meg Roggensack, Senior Advisor, Human Rights First
The Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, also known as the U.S. Helsinki Commission, is an independent agency of the Federal Government charged with monitoring compliance with the Helsinki Accords and advancing comprehensive security through promotion of human rights, democracy, and economic, environmental and military cooperation in 56 countries. The Commission consists of nine members from the U.S. Senate, nine from the House of Representatives, and one member each from the Departments of State, Defense, and Commerce.

ABF extends west coast reach with service expansion
March 08, 2011
Freight transportation services provider ABF said this week it has rolled out its RPM service to the western one-third of the United States.
RPM is short for ABF's Regional Performance Model, which is a parallel regional and national service first introduced in 2006 on the eastern seaboard and it then introduced it to the eastern two-thirds of the U.S. in 2007. Company officials said this new introduction provides increased shipment velocity to 95 percent of the lanes between major Western markets.
ABF President and CEO Wes Kemp said in a statement that this expansion provides shippers with network coast-to-coast coverage and offers them "common pickup, delivery, sales and customer service capabilities along with the convenience of one carrier seamlessly providing regional and long-haul logistics solutions. And customers do not have to make any special notations on bills of lading to select which network they wish to use."
Kemp added that this expansion provides shippers with coast-to-coast reach of ABF's innovative Dual-System Network, which provides regional service in tandem with our best-in-class long-haul service.
Other benefits cited by ABF officials include rapid, dependable regional service in addition to the flexibility, supply chain visibility, careful cargo handling and attentive customer service.
"ABF's Dual-System Network provides customers the ease of having one trusted partner that can meet all of their shipping needs, regardless of the distance traveled," ABF Director of Marketing and Public Relations Russ Aikman told LM.
And he also noted that ABF has grown its network and innovative solutions organically, which has allowed the company to fine-tune its model over time so that shippers are not impacted by disruptions that often come with more evasive forms of network design. This calculated expansion has allowed ABF to control costs while also providing shippers with a reliable service they can depend upon, which he said is a competitive advantage.

Everyone knows that peanut butter is the real star of peanut-butter-and-jelly time, that lyrical ballad of jungle-gymed school yards and elementary-school lunchrooms. As hard as jelly might try, it doesn't stand a chance next to peanut butter's sticky, salivating force which is why Peanut Butter & Co. made it the focus of the most mouthwatering recipes this side of Manhattan has ever seen. Located in the heart of Greenwich Village, the shop features The Elvis, a peanut-butter sandwich stuffed with bananas and honey (you also can add bacon for crunch) and the The Cinnamon Raisin Swirl with cinnamon-raisin peanut butter, vanilla cream cheese, and apple slices. Ask for your goods to go and they'll come in a mom-approved brown paper lunch bag with carrots. Our lunch box days might be over, but peanut butter time is forever.

I have a DS411+II with dual-core Intel Atom CPU and 2GB RAM on board.
I want to install Zimbra on it, but I don't know how, since there is no Synology OS in the download list.
I'm pretty sure it's some type of distro-Linux. Are there anyone here who could point me on the right path of how to install it?

Rapid reaction: Thunder fight past Grizzlies behind Kevin Durant's heroics
Oklahoma City won Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals on Sunday, beating Memphis 93-91 behind a huge day from Kevin Durant. Here's some rapid reaction:
Turning point
Trailing by one with less than 20 seconds left, Grizzlies guard Mike Conley Jr. drove the lane and lost the ball, thanks to timely a Derek Fisher poke-away, and it went directly into the hands of Kevin Durant. As expected, that wasn't a good thing for Memphis. Scott Brooks showed great trust, choosing not to call timeout, and his star delivered, weaving down the court and setting up a cold-blooded stop-and-pop 20-footer in transition. All net, putting the Thunder up for good. Here's the play:
It was over when…
…Quincy Pondexter, who had just been fouled by Reggie Jackson on a three, missed two crucial free throws in the final seconds, letting OKC's overaggressive second-year guard off the hook and allowing the Thunder to survive a dramatic and hugely important Game 1 at home.
Star of the game – Kevin Durant
OKC's rising megastar continues to raise his level of excellence. How does 37 points, 15 rebounds, six assists and the Game 1 game-winner sound? Just a legendary performance, under tough circumstances with his running mate sidelined. Here's Durant's scoring output, by game, since Westbrook went down: 41, 38, 36, 27, 35. That's raising your game.
Early stalls
Apparently the third quarter of doom extends beyond the first round for OKC. Blame it on the struggling starting lineup, blame it on the absence of Russell Westbrook (he's usually a monster at the start of each half) or blame it all on Kendrick Perkins if you want to (there's a large group of fans who would love to). But whatever it is, the Thunder needs to fix it. They were outplayed mightily at the start of the third quarter again on Sunday, eventually losing the period 27-17. It could have been a crucial blow, had it not been for KD's heroics, but now should be viewed as a necessary correction moving forward, with all lineup options on the table.
Stats of note
-Of the players who have shot 20 or more threes in this postseason, Derek Fisher is the only one shooting above 50 percent. He's shooting 58 percent (15/26)
-Kevin Martin has scored 50 points combined the past two games, tying his highest back-to-back point total since joining the Thunder.
-Kevin Durant's playoff averages: 32.9 points, 8.9 rebounds, 6.0 assists.
Looking back, in such a close game, this could have been killer. But I guess Pondexter gave it back with those missed free throws.
Up next
Game 2 is Tuesday night at 8:30 p.m in OKC.

I was wondering if perhaps the forum could create a new board in the Mapmaking Discussion area for Wargaming?
I am an avis wargamer, primarily WWII board and miniatures, and the topic doesn't quite fit in "Battlemap Mapping" or "Board Game Mapping". I noted you don't seem t have a lot of posts that detail the kind of maps wargames general use and create (most notibly, hex maps).

The Mississippi House and Senate approved education funding bills Friday -- two months before their budget deadline. The bills will pump an extra $236 million into all levels of education, from kindergarten through universities.
The plans also cover programs such as the Library Commission and Mississippi Educational Television. The votes on the education bills came at the end of the first month of a three-month legislative session.
Lawmakers usually approve budget bills near the end of the session. Musgrove had asked legislators to work quickly on education funding to show that education is a state priority.
University and community college leaders were especially concerned about budget cuts that had been recommended for the fiscal year starting July 1. The compromise would expand the $2.1 billion that lawmakers already planned to put into education.
Representative Bill Denny says in the 16 years he has been in the Legislature, he has heard every year that education is in crisis. He says he hopes "that the cash cow is now cured."

Giving Egyptians Time for Recovery
July 10, 2013
The so-called "Arab spring" has turned into a long, hot summer in Egypt — but for now, the hottest seat is in the Oval Office at the White House....
The Egyptian people overthrew a Muslim extremist who was installed by the Soetero/Clinton cabal.
Barry overthrew moderate governments in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya and replaced them with Muslim extremists.
He and Hillary are either incredibly incompetent or completely treasonous.
Either way, neither should be anywhere near the 3am phone call (which Hillary already failed to answer-from Benghazi).

Donors Help Provide Life-Saving, State-of-the-Art Equipment
In November, during an elk hunting trip with friends, Frank Hlavka experienced cold and hot flashes that would last nearly an hour and then disappear. It was odd for the Sherburn, Minn., man.
"At Thanksgiving time I got very sharp pains on my right side under my ribs," he said. "I knew then that there was something wrong."
He visited Sanford Acute Care where a CT scan found a mass on his liver. Blood work and a liver biopsy confirmed that the grapefruit-sized tumor on the right side of his liver was cancer – chololangiocarcinoma.
On Dec. 26, Dr. Thav Thambi, Surgical Director of the Sanford Transplant Center, performed a right hepatic lobectomy, removing the right lobe of the liver.
Thambi said the liver is a primary organ and the right lobe makes up about 60 percent of the liver volume. "If you look at it, the liver is a bag full of blood," he said.
It's difficult to operate on the liver because surgery can cause loss of blood and risk more damage to the liver and potentially affect the body, Thambi said.
Hlavka's tumor occupied most of the right lobe of the liver and was close to a blood vessel supplying the liver. Thambi needed to remove the tumor without disrupting the liver's primary function. Fortunately, new microwave ablation equipment was available in part through gifts to the Sanford Health Foundation's cancer funds. The state-of-the-art tool kills tumor cells under direct vision or using ultrasound.
Stan Gartner, CRNA, Director of Surgical Services, said the probe can also be inserted into a tumor. The surgeon can then use microwaves to destroy the tumor cells without much damage to surrounding tissue. Historically, a large portion of tissue would have needed to be removed with great potential for increased blood loss, Gartner said.
Although Hlavka's treatment will continue with radiation and chemotherapy, he has a stronger chance of survival because of this new equipment. He left the hospital four days after this major surgery.
"Every day since my surgery I am feeling better and stronger," Hlavka said. "My recovery time has been remarkable."

NOW IS THE TIME--for me to PIMP more Democrat votes by giving AMNESTY to ILLEGALS.
Come on, CALL IT WHAT IT IS, AMNESTY, not "Immigration Reform".
You MUST secure the borders FIRST.
If illegals know that they are going to get amnesty in say 6 months time period, why WON'T the borders be overrun with illegals IMMEDIATELY?
Then the number becomes 15 ro 20 million. Why WAIT and go through LEGAL immigration???
Sneak over NOW and wait 6 months, you get a FREE PASS!!!!!

Labor unions helped end the Bracero Program for migrant Mexican farm workers in the mid 1960's. It was originally devised as a guest worker program during WWII but successfully ran under US Law until 1964 when the union won a 40% worker pay increase for mostly Filipino grape pickers after convincing Pres Kennedy to end the program, eliminating low labor cost options for farmers. This UFW grape victory ushered in a 15-year golden era for US farm workers that ended with rising illegal migration in the 1980s and 1990s.

I have just enabled A&D for some users that have been on our system for quite some time and it is working great. However it did not move all of the pre-existing email into the archive account.
I need to know how to gett all of the emails that are in the users account prior to the date archiving was turned on, into the archive account.

Producer Tyler Perry to be Interviewed by Oprah
Producer, entertainer Tyler Perry has overcome hardships of childhood abuse and homelessness making a name for himself in the entertainment business from his on-stage productions to the big screen. Now Perry is coming to the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) alongside his friend, media mogul Oprah Winfrey.
In anticipation of the season openers of his first two scripted series for the network, "The Haves and the Have Nots" and "Love Thy Neighbor," premiering on May 28 and 29, Perry is sitting down with Winfrey in an interview on May 26 at 9 p.m. for "Oprah's Next Chapter."
The pair is slated to discuss his take on people who criticize his plays and films, his life-changing moments and when he first realized he had reached success.
While Perry has experienced much success in Hollywood, fame is not without criticism. Legendary producer Spike Lee and culture critic Toure have been some of Perry's most vocal critics over the years calling Perry's films and characters stereotypical.
"Why would I be upset with people who don't get it," said Perry, in a clip from the interview. "And when I tell you I have these messages by the millions of people of how my movies and work has spoken to them and their family, so the ones who don't get it aren't as important."
Perry said he always looks for truth in the criticism. He said if there is truth, he is ok with the criticism and can respect it.
"But if someone is genuine enough to give me a real and truth critique to help me grow, I am open to that," he said in a clip from the interview.
Perry also discussed the lack of roles for Black women in Hollywood. He said Hollywood needs to work on actively creating roles. He said there needs to be more diversity in the stories being told. He said we need more diversity in the producers and writers because people tell stories based on their own life experiences.
Perry's new show "The Haves and the Have Nots" is a television drama portraying the dynamics between a rich family, the Cryer's, and the people hired to work in the mansion in Georgia. Perry's other show, "Love Thy Neighbor," is a comedy about a middle-class family and their downfalls, joys and triumphs.

Orbea Rallon 10 Derailleur Hanger $0.00
Orbea isn't afraid to call its Rallon the 'perfect enduro mountain bike.' But rough trails don't play favorites, and an errant rock outcropping or unfortunate crash could leave you in need of a new derailleur hanger. In the event of an impact that results in a hanger bend, it's always better to simply replace the hanger entirely with a new Rallon 10 Hanger rather than try to bend it back. And since you never know what misfortunes the trail or Lady Luck could throw at you, it's definitely worth keeping an extra hanger or two on hand to ensure you're able to perform any quick trailside repairs. Orbea offers two anodized colors from which to choose so you can best match your frame. Choose between drive, and non drive-side hangers.

I like the iPad type menu as it allows you easy access to narrow down options when you have more than one restriction. Manager in charge checked in to confirm that we had no problems ordering and also once the order arrived. Quality of food is marginal.
very nice and friendly. they were willing to work with people that have allergies. the buns are a bit small but they are very soft and taste amazing.
It was so so
Great burger they have gf buns. Bar has multiple tvs
5461 Katella Avenue, Cypress, CA 90630
Our server was very helpful and understanding of my allergy. Their gluten-free menu is only available online, so he brought over a tablet with their "Customizer Hub". It was so easy to use and he left it with us so I could check any other items we were considering. My burger was great (gluten-free bun was just ok, but at least I didn't have to eat a lettuce-wrapped burger!) and their fries are always so good! No reaction at all.
1235 Commerce Blvd, Dickson City, PA 18519
It was so nice to be able to go and have a sandwich with a bun! I had the chicken barbecue sandwich (not sure of the proper name). It had cheese and a barbecue sauce. The French fries are made in separate fryer. It was really good and I didn't get sick! This will be a new regular stop for me.
2669 Campus Drive, Plymouth, MN 55441
If I could give this location zero stars I would. I've been here twice now and both times have gotten sick even though they assured me what I was ordering was gluten free. Absolutely horrible service when it came to being allergy sensitive, to the point that even my friends who were with me who were not gluten free began laughing uncontrollably after the server would walk away because the things they said were so ridiculous! For example when I asked if the fries that he had just brought out were the gf ones they said they would make me, he responded, "um, it has salt." And walked away like he had no doubt that was answer enough. Excuse me, do you have any idea what gluten is? Because salt has not a thing to do with it. And if it tells you something about whether it's the gf version or not, please share that info, thanks. Absolutely crazy that they would find the things they did to be any level of customer service. I will NEVER eat at any red robin location again after these two experiences at this location. Do yourself a big favor and don't go here.
740 Jefferson Rd., Rochester, NY 14623
I asked for a burger on a gluten-free bun, which prompted the server to ask if I had an allergy. I told her I have Celiac. When she brought the food, she said, "I'm sorry it took a while, we were waiting for the gluten-free fries." I was happy that they took my situation very seriously. The burger and fries were delicious!
2430 Humes Rd, Janesville, WI 53546
Very celiac friendly have been there at least 15 times never had a problem newly remodeled
695 East Van Asche Dr., Fayetteville, AR 72703
I ordered a gluten free burger and they brought it to the table with a regular bun! Thank goodness I was suspicious and flagged down someone. They took it back and the manager swore they made a completely fresh one. Side items were limited - I had fruit salad, which was delicious. I also had a raspberry limeade. They brought me a refill and it was cherry, which WASNT on the GF menu. I got really sick that night and it's hard to know which thing was the culprit, but I definitely won't be going back and beg my celiac friends to steer clear!
6699 Edwardsville Crossing Dr., Edwardsville, IL 62025
This restaurant was supposed to be celiac-friendly but after eating a burger in a lettuce wrap and bottomless fries withOuT seasoning he became very ill. Do NOT recommend.
70 Worcester-Providence Turnpike, Millbury, MA 01527
Awesome GF buns! Also Unlimited GF fries!
441 S. Randall Road, Algonquin, IL 60102
This used to be safe, but they seem far less knowledgeable now. You have to get on your phone and go to their app or they have a iPad to view the GF options - however I got glutened last night. Feeling miserable today. Had a burger in a lettuce wrap and some hummus and veggies so I assume it was cross contamination.
15503 South LaGrange Rd, Orland Park, IL 60462
Our fav is the guacamole bacon burger with the gluten free bun and unseasoned fries! Our favorite guilty pleasure. And very nice/knowledgeable staff and management!
8640 Snowden River Pkwy, Columbia, MD 21045
My waiter was so knowledgable about celiac and made some solid recommendations about what to swap out for a safer meal. Dedicated fryers for fries so not a lot of cross contamination. Great location!
3420 W. Chandler Blvd., Chandler, AZ 85226
Waiter was great about helping to pick out gf options. If he wasn't sure, he went and asked. Gf bun was pretty good.
3310 Daniels Road, Winter Garden, FL 34787
I have celiac disease and have eaten here several times, and have not gotten sick. One of the few places I feel safe eating at.
20 Trinity Place, Washington, PA 15301
I have celiac disease and have eaten a burger and fries here several times. The staff is knowledgeable. I've never gotten sick after eating here.
10465 Richmond Avenue, Houston, TX 77042
We always feel comfortable eating here. Never sick and the burgers are good.
281 Easton Road, Warrington, PA 18976
Dedicated fryers for fries and iPad in which you can put in your allergies and see what can be accommodated. Enjoyed the French dip sandwich on gluten free roll last time, first time in a long time I was able to have au jus!
3379 West Shore Dr, Holland, MI 49424
I'm a celiac, and I go here every week for date night. The workers are very knowledgable about the allergy, and they are extra careful. The manager will bring your food out for you if you are a celiac. They have a different fryer for fries as well!
2671 Fairfield Commons, Beavercreek, OH 45431
It's definitely one of my favorite gluten free restaurants they have a very good bun but if you get the fries don't use the seasoning
2860 Route 34, Oswego, IL 60543
Very accommodating! We frequent here often and safely.
5631 W Loop 1604N, San Antonio, TX 78253
we dine here when we are hungry. whole family is sensitive or have celiac, this is one place we never have an issue. can ask for manager if you wish, they are more than happy to talk with you.
2350 Lincoln Hwy #900, Lancaster, PA 17602
so good! gf buns taste great. Lots of gf options. Hey fry the fries in a separate fryer to avoid cross contamination.
4900 Sergeant Road, Sioux City, IA 51106
Having a burger with a bun again was a treat! It was a bit on the dry side, which is typical for GF buns and I was so happy to have a few fries again, yum!
1218 N. Retail Court, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577
I eat here at least twice a week , love the gluten free bun and fries Ina dedicated fryer , can't get any better than that !!!!
250 Crossroads Mall, Route 611, Bartonsville, PA 18321
so happy with service! my boy got to finally enjoy gf fries and bun! and they were so aware of cross contamination worries!
360 Los Cerritos, Los Cerritos, CA 90701
Fries and pink lemonade are amazing. I prefer my burger wrapped in lettuce than with the gf bun it was okay but not great but I'm fine with that gives me more room for fries. Last time I was at this location my order ended up being free due to my burger coming 3 minutes later than the rest of my table which I really didn't mind at all. Great service.
6255 Mills Civic Pkwy., West Des Moines, IA 50266
My first gluten-free experience was a pleasant one @ Red Robin. The burger was great and I did not get sick.

i love red robin! I've never had a problem here. it's one of my 3 go to places to eat since being diagnosed celiac. as with any place, always make sure your remind them you are celiac/gluten free when ordering anything...you're entrée, ff refill or dessert. the servers are only human afterall. separate kitchen area for gf and separate fryer for GF french fries.
2020 Wilkes Barre Mktplace, Wilkes Barre, PA 18702
On a very busy Saturday night, our son's GF burger and fries was served separately by the manager. The staff take the allergy serious and concern. I was impressed. We had a great night!
3055 Gateway Blvd, Prescott, AZ 86303
Went several years ago not good but my how things have changed. Frys are ok in the allergy fryer, buns are great and more options than most places
360 Buckland Hills Drive, Manchester, CT 06040
Server put in the system that there was a person in my party with celiac. The chefs obviously did not care. Within the fries (which can are supposed to be cooked in a separate frier) was an onion ring. Onion rings are not gluten free. The wait staff and management apologized, but did not seem to understand what celiac was nor the reactions. We educated them, thoroughly. Would not recommend this restaurant.
3821 Boston St, Baltimore, MD 21224
The waitress said "yeah, we don't salt the fries" in response the verifying the food, even the fries, were safe. Couldn't confirm they had a dedicated fryer for the fries "the fry them with the fish"... At that point we walked out. Don't eat at this location if you have celiac disease.

I love going to this particular red robin location. My food is always hot and fresh and I've never gotten glutened and if I have a question about something being gluten free the waitresses never have a problem with asking a manager to find out.
4900 Sergeant Road, Sioux City, IA 51106
This location was TERRIBLE!!! My father-in- law ordered a side of the creamy BBQ sauce for his meal and it came on my plate. When I asked the waiter if this was gluten free he quickly replied yes. I followed up with asking him if he was 100% positive in which he replied yes this sauce is 100% gluten free! I put a little on my burger to try it and took a few bites. The manager came out and informed me that the sauce was not gluten free. He said I should be fine though because I only had 2 or 3 bites. I will never eat at this location again!
301 South Hills Village, Bethel Park, PA 15241
I had an excellent dining experience! Not only was my meal incredibly delicious, but our server Damon was exceptional! I felt very comfortable eating here and I will definitely be back. Five-star service all around!
610 Middletown Boulevard, Langhorne, PA 19047
We've been hear several times never had an issue with gluten. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Great burgers and buns!
17301 Valley Mall Rd, Hagerstown, MD 21740
Always accommodating! The bun is quite yummy too.
3420 W. Chandler Blvd., Chandler, AZ 85226
Pretty good.....good gf fries! Good gf burger! And they do have gf buns..however they are pretty solid and hard to chew. But good once you get it in your mouth. They seemed very aware and sensitive about my allergy...about 5-7 choices of things I could have...however they had to bring me a tablet and stay there until I picked my meal....so no time to think and kind of uncomfortable to just sit there and watch the waiter stair. Overall it was good. Nice service too!
13800 N. Pennsylvania Ave., Oklahoma City, OK 73134
I've eaten at RR many times. Burger with Udi's bun. Very good with Titos Gluten free Vodka at the bar. Avoid spice shaker. Fries are cut onsite so not coated. No problems so far but limited to the burger.
1986 Medical Center Parkway, Murfreesboro, TN 37129
Ordered the french onion soup which was on the gluten free menu (without the bread topping). I asked for no bread topping and they brought it out to me with it anyway. I kindly asked them to bring me a new one with no bread and made it clear I was severely allergic. They brought me a new one that appeared to have no bread. I started eating, took several bites and got to the bottom of the bowl only to realize they stuffed the bread at the bottom instead!! My mom was pissed and called the manager over and he was less than apologetic, even offered to bring me a THIRD bowl of soup but by then I was already feeling miserable and just wanted to leave. This was a few years ago so they may be better now but that was the last time I have ever eaten there. Very bad experience and missed a week of school because of being glutened from nothing but staff carelessness.
7982 Citrus Park Town Center, Tampa, FL 33625
We tried so many times to eat here (at the citrus park location) because we LOVE their fries and burgers. Three times, I sent my burger back because it had a sauce or an item specifically listed as not gluten free (even after I had a discussion with our server and the manager explaining that I have celiac). Three more times, I and my son (who is also celiac) got sick. I gave up.
3821 Boston St, Baltimore, MD 21224
I have mixed feelings but all in all I ended up eating a meal without becoming sick. That said, I also had little confidence in the info my server gave me but the manager came out to confirm that there is currently a dedicated fry fryer and they don't put salt on from the kitchen for cross-contamination prevention. The seasoning on the tables is fine to eat. The burger... The first one they served me had a sweet potato fry fall out of it when I took my first bite. They made me a fresh burger when I pointed out the mystery fry. It was yummy, the gf bun gets a little soggy on the bottom but not terrible. I also inhaled my burger since I had to wait while the rest of the table ate for my second burger to come out. And they have omission beer and angry orchard!!
2350 Lincoln Hwy #900, Lancaster, PA 17602
Best GF buns I've ever had. Will definitely be back.
3821 Boston St, Baltimore, MD 21224
Just ate there. Burger was great. Fries were great. Server didn't make me feel confident though. I thought they had a dedicated fryer but the waitress told me, "there's no salt on your fries so you should be good." Will update if I get sick in the next few minutes.
6636 E Lloyd Expressway, Evansville, IN 47715
celiac daughter got very sick. will not be returning.
4010 N Main Street, Mishawaka, IN 46545
Our server was very helpful when I asked for bbq on my burger. He checked to see if it was gluten free then returned to let me know it was not but that they had another that was.
1021 N. Columbia Center Blvd., Kennewick, WA 99336
They told us the fries were cooked in a separate fryer when you specify GF, but once they made him sick and a 2nd time there was chunks of onion rings in the bottom of the basket,....so much for separate fryer... we will not go back, too risky
2430 Humes Rd, Janesville, WI 53546
Very helpful with gf options. Waitress kept checking to make sure I liked my food. Great experience and wonderful food
5550-3 Whittlesey Blvd., Columbus, GA 31909
Good burgers and endless fries. My girlfriend has to be gluten-free and she loves going there when she is craving a burger. One of the few places I know of that offers a gluten-free bun.
9434 Civic Center Blvd., West Chester, OH 45069
Had a bad night after visiting this establishment. Whilst they claim to do everything separately, I was ill after eating here.
2015 S. Mooney Blvd., #505, Visalia, CA 93277
Grilled chicken and fries. Totally sick by the time we got back to the motel, but I'm not sure if it was gluten or food poisoning because the reaction was different. Cold wind whenever the door opened. Had to pay on the touch screen, which was very sticky and yucky from who knows what.

Documented violations – actual number of cases may be higher
Violations of trade union rights continue, particularly in the export processing zones. In May, the police harshly repressed a workers' demonstration, leaving one person dead and 270 injured.
The government ended the State of Emergency that had been in force for nearly 30 years, but the legislation and other measures still give the police excessive powers of detention. Thousands of people are still being held without trial, often for years. Human rights activists who denounce the violations committed during and after the civil war continue to be the victims of assassinations, threats, attacks or long prison sentences. Power is being concentrated more and more in the hands of the friends and family of President Rajapaksa. Sri Lanka has one of the worst records in the world for violating freedom of the press.
Trade union rights in law
Despite initial guarantees, trade union rights are limited by excessive restrictions. The right to form and join unions is recognised, however a number of workers are excluded or enjoy limited freedom of association, including agricultural workers. Furthermore, public service unions are not allowed to form federations or engage in collective bargaining. While the right to bargain collectively is guaranteed for other trade unions, they must represent over 40% of the workers at a given workplace in order to be recognised. The right to strike is seriously circumscribed. The long list of services defined as "essential" was removed in 2006 and replaced by a broad unrestricted definition. The regulations allow the President to ban any organisation s/he considers to be impeding, obstructing or delaying the production and delivery of any service "which is of public utility or is essential for national security or for the preservation of public order or the life of the community and includes any department of the government or branch thereof".
Link to additional detailed information regarding the legislation on the ITUC website here
In practice
Public sector trade union federations tolerated: Although the law prohibits federations of public sector trade unions, there are a few such federations operating openly such as the Public Service National Trade Union Federation (PSNTUF) and the Ceylon Trade Union Federation (CTUF). These federations do not engage in collective bargaining, however, as they are not legally recognised as trade unions.
EPZs – A long tradition of anti-unionism: Export processing zones (EPZs) are managed by the Board of Investment (BOI), which sets wages and working conditions. In many cases, union members or officials are suspended, demoted or dismissed. In addition, new workers, often women, are warned not to join unions. Union activists not employed by one of the firms operating in an EPZ are not allowed to access the zone unless their entry is expressly authorised by the employer. This ban is one of the main barriers to organising in the EPZs.
Derisory fines: The maximum fine for employers found guilty of anti-union discrimination is 20,000 rupees (around USD 174), which is far too little to be dissuasive.
Poor enforcement of legislation on union recognition:
The recognition of unions for collective bargaining purposes is hindered by excessive delays. Employers try to delay the holding of union elections for as long as possible and use this time to identify, victimise and, very often, fire the union activists concerned. As a result, workers generally refrain from voting, for fear of being identified, and the union fails to secure the number of votes required for it to be recognised. Employers go as far as to change their staffing figures to ensure the 40% representation target (deemed excessive by the ILO) is even harder to reach.
Where an employer refuses to recognise a union for collective bargaining purposes, the union can complain to the Commissioner General of Labour, who organises a referendum at the workplace. There is generally a very long wait, however, before such a referendum is actually held.
Unions denied access to Magistrates' Courts: There are many cases of anti-union discrimination. As with other unfair labour practices, such cases are heard by the Magistrates' Court, but only the Commissioner General of Labour can file a complaint with it. Trade unions can try to obtain a summons from a higher court, but this is a long and costly procedure. In the absence of a maximum deadline for bringing cases before the Magistrates' Court as of the moment a union reports a violation, the legislation on unfair labour practices serves little real purpose. The Commissioner General of Labour has only filed two cases since 1999.
Poor rights enforcement in export processing zones: Labour inspection labour inspection An authority responsible for ensuring compliance with labour laws and legal provisions relating to protection of workers through the inspection of workplaces. is clearly inadequate in the Export Processing Zones (EPZs), as government inspectors are not allowed to carry out unannounced visits to EPZ factories. In addition, when complaints are received by the competent government body, employers rarely turn up to the hearings, and, when they do so, they often flout the rulings with impunity. The government has proved incapable of enforcing these rulings.
Employees' Councils:
Employees' Councils are promoted by the Board of Investment (BIO) as a substitute for trade unions in the export processing zones (EPZs). Employees' councils are, however, structures funded by and functioning under the aegis of the employer and can influence workers' choices much more easily than a union (where the workers elect their leaders and can act independently as the organisation is financed by the dues paid by its members). In some cases, management refuses to recognise an emerging trade union and will "negotiate" directly with the Employees' Council as if it were the workers' legitimate representative body. In other cases, it will offer employee council members certain advantages if they do not join a union and threaten them if they do.
A study by the ITGLWF (International Textile, Garment And Leather Workers Federation) in the export processing zones found that at least six factories in the zones banned all union representation and did not even respect the BOI guidelines on creating employees councils.
Harassment of trade union activists by Bratex:
The Bratex (pvt) Ltd. women's underwear factory, in the Katunayake export processing zone has sought in several ways to intimidate trade union activists from the Free Trade Zones and General Services Employees' Union (FTZ&GSEU).
On 11 February a strike began at the factory over pay demands. On 14 February two workers, Amal Santha and U.W. Gayan Pradeep Kumara, were accused of attacking Bratex staff. They were arrested and detained by the Katunayake police. That evening, as the workers were gathering outside the police station to demand the release of their two colleagues, police officers attacked them and arrested three more people: Asela Dharmapriya, the FTZ&GSEU representative in the Katunayake zone, Asoka Basnayake, a union member, and M. Prasad, a photographer. The latter was released after his photographs were deleted from his camera. The others were released on bail on 18 February.
From 14 February onwards, striking workers were subjected to various forms of intimidation to force them back to work, including sending police officers to their homes in cars supplied by Bratex. During the visits, the police had with them a list of 10 men workers and 10 women workers suspended by Bratex. These 20 people were members or representatives of the FTZ&GSEU. They were questioned by the police, then released on bail.
On 17 February, 33 workers affiliated to the FTZ&GSEU (including the 20 people sought by police a few days earlier) received a letter saying they were suspended on disciplinary grounds. Bratex put up their photographs at the entrance to the Katunyake zone, effectively blacklisting them. Their photographs were also sent to the zone's police.
Nurses union lodges complaint with ILO: The Government Nursing Officers Association (GNOA), the Health Services Trade Union Alliance (HSTUA), and the Trade Union Confederation (TUC) lodged a complaint with the ILO Committee on Freedom of Association. The complaint concerned the intimidation of nursing staff who had taken part in a strike in 2010 (see the 2011 edition of the Survey), the transfer of 34 GNOA activists to distant hospitals to prevent them from taking part, and the authorities' refusal release from duty the president of the GNOA, Saman Rathnapriya. He was refused release from duties at the beginning of the year, even though he had been granted it for the previous four years. The unions considered this to be an act of reprisal against the union president for his role in the strike.
One person killed and hundreds injured when police fire into crowd of workers: A coalition of 26 trade unions was formed to oppose the introduction of a pension fund bill, designed to meet one of the conditions set by the International Monetary Fund for a loan of 2.6 billion dollars to Sri Lanka. On 24 May tens of thousands of workers marched through the streets of Colombo and in the Katunayake export processing zone to protest against the bill. On 29 May, people linked to the government distributed false leaflets in the zone, claiming to be from the trade union coalition, calling for support for the bill. The following day the workers went out onto the streets in protest at this manipulation. The police used extreme violence to repress the demonstration, using automatic weapons and tear gas. A 22-year-old worker, Roshen Chanaka, was killed in the shooting which also left hundreds injured (including 15 police officers). The police then began to harass and intimidate union delegates and workers, by preventing them from leaving their factories for example and by attacking some workers as they left the zone. Women workers were humiliated by the police, and some were even struck with iron bars. Trade union offices were searched by the police, without a warrant. The police finally handed over security in the zone to the army. The head of the Sri Lankan police force resigned following this repression and two police officers were arrested. In the end the bill was withdrawn by the government.
Thugs attack teachers' demonstration: On 6 July, in Kurunegala, a peaceful demonstration by members of the Ceylon Teacher Services Union (CTSU) was attacked by about 50 yobs wielding sticks. Fifteen teachers were injured. The union believes the thugs had close links with the government.
Unions not recognised:
Once a parent union is registered, the branch unions that subsequently form are not legally required to individually register themselves with the Department of Labour. Recognition of a union at the plant or branch level is achieved when the employer recognizes and enters into collective bargaining with the plant-level and the parent union. Several companies refused to recognize plant-level unions in 2011.
Tensil Structures Pvt., Ltd. rejected the FTZ-GSEU after they discovered the union formation. The company engaged the branch union, but refused to deduct union dues from worker paychecks and to remit the dues to the FTZ-GSEU, despite the branch union specifically requesting the deduction.
At Mirrai Pvt Ltd, management intimidated the unionized workers and internally transferred the President and Assistant Secretary of the branch union from the ironing section to the sewing section of the factory (a transfer viewed as retaliatory by the union) after they were notified of the formation of the branch union.
The Progress Union was not recognized at Kinetecs, DSL Toys, Sees Lanka, Upali Garments, Mazda Plastics, Melborne Metal, and CD Packing. The National Workers Congress was not recognized at United Tobacco Processing, Sky Fan Asia, Alitex, Dainin Lanka, Brandix, Sha Lanka, and Passion Trade.
Despite the repeated failure of these companies to recognize plant and branch level unions, the government brought only two unfair labour practice cases before the Magistrate's Court. Both cases failed.
Employees councils used to frustrate unions:
Employees' councils are being promoted inside the Export Processing Zones (EPZ) as an alternative to union recognition. Management-controlled employees' councils are staffed by supervisors and office-based workers, and management sets the agendas for meetings and limits discussion of issues. The use of employees' councils to subvert the will of workers to form a union is a violation of the right to organize and bargain collectively. A number of companies are promoting employees' councils where a union is trying to register and is being unrecognized.
Mirrai Pvt., Ltd. instructed the branch union of FTZ-GSEU to go through the employees' council of the factory. Brandix continues to promote the employees' council in the Koggala EPZ even though the National Workers Congress is attempting to gain recognition. In addition, several companies are promoting employees' councils where unions are registered: Mag Pack (Pvt) Ltd. instructed the branch union of FTZ-GSEU to go through the employees' council of the factory after the branch union requested an appointment from management to discuss demands. DSL Lanka is trying to undermine Progress Union's plant-level union by establishing an employees' council. Finally, Ranmalu, Suluta, Koggala Garment, Trandsetter, Sky Sport, I.C.L., and Brooky Diamond are promoting employees' councils as an alternative to the branch level National Workers Congress unions.

This is a small map for the final scene in this session of Pathfinder with my group.
The players arrive on the terrace of king's palace (a building that is hanging from the roof of a gigantic cavern) flying. Inside they must save the king from the lord of the attacking army (that crashed on the balcony with is black dragon).
2D battlemap (to be used in MapTool). The blu square is a thick piece of glass from where the king, sitting on his throne, can see his land. The Throne and some furniture will be added in MapTool. The brown zones are platforms made of wood added to the structure to allow the king and the generals to land and take off with their mounts.
Isometric Map of the same area, done in sketchup (doors, tables and throne models found in the online gallery).
Hope you like it!

Press Releases
FreeMotion Fitness Introduces Whole Body Vibration Platform
(December, 2006 - COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.) - FreeMotion Fitness™, the provider of the first, and only, full circuit of integrated functional training equipment, is proud to announce the release of the FreeMotion i.Tonic Whole Body Vibration Platform.
Combining function with style, the FreeMotion i.Tonic provides a balanced Whole Body Vibration training session. This innovative platform features functional vibration technology with the patent-pending air suspension system to reduce noise and evenly disburse vibration through the platform. The precision, synchronized motors create an exact vertical displacement for consistent vibration. The stainless-steel frame is strong, dampening the transmission of vibration to the floor and lightweight, making it easy to place in a facility.
The FreeMotion i.Tonic Whole Body Vibration Platform is user-friendly, equipped with a simple display of easy-to-read dials and LED screen. Simply set the frequency (Hz), amplitude and duration before pushing the start button to begin. Users can also press a button on the frame to repeat the vibration cycle when performing exercises seated or lying down.
WBV works as the body's muscles have an involuntary response where the muscles relax and contract at the same frequency (Hz) that the platform is set. In simplified terms, muscles will relax and contract 900 times when standing on the FreeMotion i.Tonic set at 30 Hz for 30 seconds. This response recruits nearly 100% of the muscle fibers in contraction.
A time-tested modality of fitness, WBV first emerged in the 1960's where the Russian space program used vibration to help speed up recovery after prolonged weightlessness. Olympic athletes later used vibration as a low-impact way to increase strength, flexibility and recovery time.
Over the last several decades, scientists have discovered and validated these exceptional benefits, which include:
- Time-efficient workout
- High muscle activation with less fatigue
- Boosts metabolism and burns calories
- Builds core strength, stability and balance
- Improves muscle mass and tone
- Decreases Cortisol (stress hormone)
- Increases testosterone and growth hormones
- Easy on joints and enhances joint mobility/range of motion
- Facilitates blood circulation
- Stimulates bone growth to combat osteoporosis
