Fourth Amendment - Excessive Force - Ninth Circuit Holds Female Plaintiffs Brought Valid Excessive Force Claims against Police Officers Who Tased Them
In responding to violence against women, feminist legal scholars have frequently debated how the law can best balance viewing women as victims and encouraging female autonomy.(1) Recently, in Mattos v. Agarano, (2) the Ninth Circuit, sitting en banc, held that female plaintiffs in two consolidated cases alleged valid excessive force violations arising from tasings by police officers. (3) Analyses in several of the resulting opinions reveal competing assumptions about women. These assumptions transpose the feminist debate over the appropriate legal response to violence against women from domestic violence law to excessive force law. By edging toward unequal treatment of male and female plaintiffs in excessive force suits, the court's analysis has lent urgency to the efforts of those who oppose protectionist treatment of women.
On November 23, 2004, Seattle Police Department Officer Juan Ornelas pulled over Malaika Brooks for speeding and issued a notice of traffic infraction, which Brooks refused to sign.(4) Officer Donald Jones joined Ornelas, and as Brooks became agitated, (5) the officers ordered her to leave her car so that they might arrest her."
Brooks refused to exit her car, Jones showed her his taser, and Brooks responded that she was seven months pregnant.(7) The officers discussed how to safely tase Brooks, after which Ornelas opened the car door, removed the keys from the ignition, and dropped them on the floor.(8) Jones then discharged his taser on Brooks's thigh, shoulder, and neck, all within approximately one minute.(9) Finally, Jones and Ornelas removed Brooks from her car and arrested her.10 Brooks filed suit against the officers in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, alleging that the tasing violated her Fourth Amendment right to be free from excessive force.11 District Judge Jones denied the officers' summary judgment motion, finding that they could not invoke qualified immunity because their actions were "objectively unreasonable" and because Brooks's right to be free from such force was clearly established. "
A similar chain of events began on August 23, 2006, when four Maui police officers, including Darren Agarano and Ryan Aikala, responded to a domestic dispute between Jayzel Mattos and her husband Troy. (13) After the officers arrived, Troy became agitated, and Agarano asked to speak with Jayzel outside. Jayzel agreed, asking everyone to calm down because her children were sleeping. (14) Before she could move outside, however, Aikala announced that Troy was under arrest, at which point Jayzel stood between Troy and Aikala. (15) When Aikala moved to arrest Troy, he pressed against Jayzel's chest, and she responded by raising her hands and touching him in the process. (16) After asking whether Jayzel was touching an officer, Aikala deployed his taser, which locked Jayzel's joints and caused her to fall." The officers then arrested both Troy and Jayzel."
The Mattoses filed suit against the officers in the U.S. District Court for the District of Hawaii for violating their Fourth Amendment right to be free from excessive force. (19) The officers moved for summary judgment, (20) and District Judge Ezra found triable issues of fact regarding whether the tasing constituted excessive force. (21) As such, the court denied summary judgment."
The officers in both cases filed interlocutory appeals to the Ninth Circuit. (23) In each case, a three-judge panel found no Fourth Amendment violation. (24) The Ninth Circuit granted rehearing en banc, vacated both three-judge panel opinions," and combined Brooks and Mattos for consolidated argument and disposition."
Writing for the panel, Judge Paez (27) held that both Brooks and Mattos alleged valid Fourth Amendment violations, but that the officers in both cases were entitled to qualified immunity. (28) In determining, first, whether the plaintiffs presented valid excessive force claims, the court applied the reasonableness test established by the Supreme Court in Graham v. …

Scissor Tales: No set plans yet for Henry
WHAT'S a popular lame duck to do? Normally he'd position himself for higher office, but Gov. Brad Henry hasn't moved in that direction. For him, the higher office would be in the U.S. Senate, where he would join other Democrats who enthusiastically embraced Barack Obama's presidential campaign in 2008. Therein lies the rub. Henry's job approval rating is 67 percent, two points higher than U.S. Sen. Tom Coburn. Coburn's name will be on the 2010 ballot as he seeks a second term. Henry's name could also be on the ballot but for the fact that Obama's approval rating in Oklahoma is an abysmal 36 percent. Oklahoma voters seem in no mood to send a Democrat to the Senate and give Obama another vote. This is why no serious opposition has developed against Coburn and — perhaps — why Henry isn't interested in the job Coburn seems destined to win. Surveys from the Oklahoma Poll, sponsored by the Tulsa World, show Oklahoma's other Republican U.S. senator, Jim Inhofe, has a 61 percent approval rating. Henry will leave office in a year as one of the most popular Oklahoma politicians ever — presuming something doesn't happen to change that. Yet despite this popularity, the governor doesn't seem willing to put it to a test at the ballot box.
Fallin has edgeReplacing Henry will be the prime decision before Oklahoma voters in November. Early polling shows U.S. Rep. Mary Fallin has the edge in most parts of the state. As the first Republican and first female lieutenant governor, Fallin is no stranger to breaking ground. She would be the first woman to occupy the governor's chair, but another woman — Lt. Gov. Jari Askins — has her eyes on the prize as well. Polls may not mean much this far out, but at this point Fallin is seen as the winner no matter which candidate the Democrats nominate. The front-runner is Attorney General Drew Edmondson, who's already moving to distance himself from the national Democratic Party — at least when he's not speaking to activist urban Democrats. Henry has shown that a Democrat can retain popularity here no matter how much Oklahomans dislike the president.
'Edgy' ads outIn three weeks, millions of Super Bowl viewers will tune in to watch the ads, with a little football thrown in for good measure. Super Bowl ads are always entertaining and stimulate discussion. Some are edgy, some are controversial. Madison Avenue is, after all, the domain of the Mad Men. Lately, people have been getting mad at the advertisers. This includes a garment manufacturer's use of President Obama to tout outerwear. The White House cried foul and the image was removed from a Times Square billboard. In Australia, KFC pulled a TV ad that was labeled as racist — despite being far less so than comments made about Obama by fellow Democrat and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
Green badge of courage?Sen. Jim Inhofe loves getting a rise out of environmental groups and the attention that goes with it — like Rolling Stone's new article naming him one of the planet's worst enemies. Inhofe, R-Tulsa, has gotten under a lot of people's skin contesting the "settled science" of global warming and environmental regulatory efforts that carry a big economic price tag, all from his perch on the Senate's Environment and Public Works Committee. Inhofe's main beef with the article is he thinks he was ranked too low. "My first response was I should have been No. 1, not No. 7," he told the Tulsa World. "I am serious about that. I have spent now literally years on this thing, and it has been a long, involved thing." And he shows no sign of easing his foot off the gas pedal.
Robertson eruptionIt's been awhile since Pat Robertson last erupted, so it's not surprising his latest outburst was a doozy — linking the devastating earthquake in Haiti to some kind of deal he says the Haitian people made with the devil in the 1790s to shed the yoke of French colonizers. "They were under the heel of the French," Robertson said Wednesday, "and they got together and swore a pact to the devil. They said, 'We will serve you if you'll get us free from the French.'" Besides being of dubious scholarship, Robertson's remark was off the charts offensive given the death toll and destruction in Haiti. Of course, Robertson is notorious for interpreting contemporary events as the works of God or Satan or both. He blamed the 9/11 attacks on the country's ban on public school prayer and said Hurricane Katrina was retribution for abortion. For conservatives the hard thing is a number of Americans still think Robertson speaks for a large segment of their movement. They can only hope for another kind of miracle — that next time some calamity occurs Pat Robertson will just keep quiet.
Sense of entitlementThere's a big special election in Massachusetts on Tuesday to fill the U.S. Senate seat left vacant by the passing of Ted Kennedy. Actually, the seat's not vacant. The Democratic machine in the Bay State put party retread Paul Kirk in there to keep it warm, presumably for the state's Democratic attorney general, Martha Coakley, who faces Republican Scott Brown and independent Joseph Kennedy (not that Joe Kennedy!). The three debated Monday night, and judging by the account in the Boston Globe, it was pretty lively. Easily the best comeback of the night came from Brown, who's running in a state where Republicans are outnumbered by Democrats 3-1. Asked by moderator David Gergen whether he felt comfortable taking Kennedy's seat and becoming the vote that would stop health care, Kennedy's signature issue, Brown pounced. "With all due respect, it's not the Kennedys' seat, it's not the Democrats' seat," Brown said. "It's the people's seat." That, as they say, is bearding the lion in his own den.
It's politicsNew Jersey won't be joining the short list of states allowing undocumented students to attend college at in-state tuition rates. The effect, supporters said, is that children will be punished for the actions of their illegal immigrant parents and likely won't attend college at all. The measure's failure is rightfully disappointing although the in-state tuition denial has become a politically popular choice in many states. While higher education isn't a right, it is an opportunity that ought to be as widely available as possible for those who want it. Banning students who were young and had no say when their family immigrated slams the door of opportunity for those who simply can't afford the much higher price tag of out-of-state tuition. What good comes from that?

So i got my new bike today a Specialized HardRock Sport Disc (was suppose to get a stumjumper but im only in town for 2 more months and didnt want to spend alot of money)
Overall the bike was amazing when i rode it today, maybe its my newbiness and inexperience and the fact that i havent ridden in two years and the last bike i rode was an x-mart bike. The only problems i had were the brakes squeaking, the pedals since i hit my shins twice and got some cuts,and the fact that i bottomed out the fork and im only 140lb and it was also really spongy.
I went on a pretty sweet ride i went to this trail called fantasy island which is 1/2 mile from my house. This trail was awesome it consisted of everything downhill,uphill,ramps,90 degree turn i though it was a bit beyond my skill since i have none but i still did it. This trail kicked my ass i almost endoed a few times. The cacti also sucked i got pricked by one of the sum*****es.

How to Appreciate an Obese Family Member
Some people may try to avoid an obese person, but when it comes to family members you have to appreciate them. It may be hard to appreciate someone who isn't taking care of themselves correctly, but you have to. Read on for some helpful tips!
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Try to not compare them to other family members who control their weight. Make them feel like they are respected just as much as a thinner person.
2Focus on the inside not the outside. Focus on their feelings and emotions. If they seem sad try to make them happy. You need to keep in mind how they react to certain remarks or statements. If you give them a smile they would most probably smile back. When you show kindness to someone who deserves it they will show kindness back. It doesn't matter who a person is or what they look like they still need the respect that you would want as well.

I agree with Terry, you really have found your niche and trademark design style! I really do not know any other artists that have quite mastered this kind of art, but I am a bit naive about this genre of artwork. Andre could you tell us about where you gain your inspiration, other artists, film, photography, magazines, etc.? I bet a lot of us here would like to know. You certainly inspire many of us!
Thanks Jeff!
Great Piece, well done! :)

Potassium iodide is used to loosen and break up mucus in the airways. This helps you cough up the mucus so you can breathe more easily if you have long-term lung problems (e.g., asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema). This medication is known as an expectorant.
Potassium iodide is also used along with antithyroid medicines to prepare the thyroid gland for surgical removal, to treat certain overactive thyroid conditions (hyperthyroidism), and to protect the thyroid in a radiation exposure emergency. It works by shrinking the size of the thyroid gland and decreasing the amount of thyroid hormones produced.
In a radiation emergency, potassium iodide blocks only the thyroid from absorbing radioactive iodine, protecting it from damage and reducing the risk of thyroid cancer. Use this medication along with other emergency measures that will be recommended to you by public health and safety officials (e.g., finding safe shelter, evacuation, controlling food supply).
How To Use
Take this medication by mouth with a full glass of water (8 ounces or 240 milliliters) as directed by your doctor or public health and safety officials. To avoid stomach upset, take after meals or with food. Drink plenty of liquids with this medication unless otherwise directed. If you are taking the tablets, do not lie down for 10 minutes after taking this medication. If you are using the drops or liquid medication, use the dropper that comes with the bottle or a medication spoon/device to measure the correct dose. Liquid forms of this product may be mixed in water, milk, formula, or juice before taking. Do not use this medication if the solution turns brownish-yellow.
Dosage is based on your medical condition and response to therapy. In children, dosage is also based on age. Do not increase your dose, take it more often, or take it for longer than prescribed or recommended because of the increased risk of side effects.
In a radiation emergency, take this drug only when public health and safety officials tell you to do so. Read the Patient Information Leaflet that comes with the medication. Start treatment as soon as possible for the best protection. Take this medication usually once every 24 hours. The length of treatment will be determined by public health and safety officials and depends on several factors (e.g., whether you continue to be exposed to the radiation, and whether you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or have a newborn baby). See also Precautions.
If so directed, use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time(s) each day.
Inform your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.

Boston Symphony Orchestra Returns To China
Let's travel 12 time zones away to China… where the Boston Symphony Orchestra is currently on a 13-day Asian tour. It's the BSO's second trip to China… its first was in 1979, when the BSO became the first American orchestra to visit communist China after the normalization of U.S.-Sino relations.
That trip was historic, a political and cultural exchange that some say helped rekindle China's love for classical music. China is, of course, an utterly different country today. A world power, and a powerhouse when it comes to raising the next generation of classical musicians.
Mark Volpe, managing director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra

So as you probably know by now, I whiffed Tuesday on my attempt to sneak middle linebacker Manti Te'o into the mythical second round of our 2013 #bloggermock draft. My plan was to select players at other positions with the No. 23 and No. 25 overall picks, based on the educated assumption that the Vikings are the team most interested in taking Te'o in the first round. Under that scenario, Te'o would be available at or near the top of the second round, where the Vikings could use some of their nine remaining picks to move up and draft him there if they were so inclined.

While I was driving today, all four window controls were working fine and then the driver window button started sticking a bit when I tried putting the window up. All other windows were working fine, but then my driver window control just stopped responding completely, while my window was all the way down. So now I can't get it to go back up. Is this an electrical problem or have I just jammed it?

Hidden History of the Arabs; Even for the Most Empathetic Arabs, the Holocaust Is Still a Faraway Event-Europeans Killing Their Own-For Which They Paid a Price
Byline: Robert Satloff (Satloff, director of The Washington Institute for Near East Policy, is the author of 'Among the Righteous: Lost Stories From the Holocaust's Long Reach Into Arab Lands')
A Moroccan cartoonist recently took top honors, worth $12,000, in a contest lampooning the Holocaust, sponsored by Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Instead of echoing the crass anti-Semitism that nowadays issues from Tehran, Moroccans and other Arabs might better have cited their rich history with Jews and the Holocaust to put Ahmadinejad in his place.
In North Africa and the Middle East, discussion of the Holocaust has tended to take one of three forms. One is outright denial, favored by demagogues ranging from secular nationalists like Egypt's Gamal Abdul Nasser, who 40 years ago said that "no person takes seriously the lie of the six million Jews that were murdered," to religious radicals like Hizbullah's Hassan Nasrallah, who once proclaimed that "Jews invented the legend of the Holocaust." At the opposite end of the spectrum are what I call Holocaust glorifiers. These Hitler cheerleaders are best exemplified by the editorial writers at Egypt's state-owned al-Akhbar newspaper, who have praised the Final Solution and only lamented the fact that the Nazis didn't finish the job.
Most Arabs settle between these extremes in a sort of "Holocaust relativism." They admit that Jews suffered during World War II but dispute both the numbers and the unique depravity of the Final Solution. "In war, bad things happen," they tend to say, citing mass killings of Armenians, Kurds or Cambodians to suggest that the Jewish experience was nothing special. Thus Syrian President Bashar al-Assad told U.S. TV host Charlie Rose earlier this year that he doesn't have "any clue how [Jews] were killed or how many were killed," while moderate Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas authored a Soviet-era doctoral dissertation that questioned the number of Jews killed. Even for the most empathetic Arabs, the Holocaust is still a faraway event--Europeans killing their own--for which, they say, the Palestinians have paid a price in the creation of Israel.
Five years ago, shortly after September 11, my family and I moved to Rabat to begin a research project that I hoped would change the way Arabs think about the Holocaust. My man-bites-dog idea was simple. Not a single Arab is among the more than 20,000 non-Jews recognized by Yad Vashem, Israel's official memorial to the Holocaust, for rescuing Jews from the threat of death. …

Want to know more about Bali before your trip? Our travel guide to Bali gives you all the information you need to know!
Why travel to Bali?
Indonesia has a province spruced with rainforests, green vegetation of terraced fields and smooth plains located at its Lesser Sunda Islands, a heaven for any traveller willing to stumble across someplace exotic. Bali ranges with topography too diverse to be present within one island, an island well-spread with a range of places and destinations ranging from remote settlements, to fishing villages and urban towns and even residential suburbs, either marked by white beaches, mountain valleys or plains. The fertile terraced plantation fields at Tegalalang and Jatiluwih, the high grasslands along Kampuhan Ridge, and agricultural villages like Mayong highlight the main spots for a natural trek tour of Bali. The simple lifestyle adapted in the mountains and harvests of rice feature as cultural attractions which give the real colour to touring these areas. Even the official green areas reflect multiple functions to serve as sanctuaries or galleries, may it be the Agung Rai Museum of Fine Arts with open air displays of massive sculptures, the Garuda Wisnu Kencana cultural exhibition park, the Bali bird park, or the Bali safari and Marine Park. For mountaineering, the mount Batur forms the highest peak as an active volcano, bordered by small lakes on certain sides. Ranking in as the hallmarks of natural towers which are embedded within the tranquillity of Bali's expanse, there are various temples in rural areas. Tirta Empul Temple, Uluwatu Temple and Taman Ayun Temple are all religious sites for Hinduism dominant in the local communities. The Ubud Monkey Forest Sanctuary, Goa Gaja Elephant Cave, the Gunung Kawi Temple Complex and the Ubud Palace are some of the must-visit sites to explore the architectural heritage affiliated with the indigenous community hailing from Bali. For formal representation, Bali has aimed the spotlight at its versatile visual arts, with the Bianco Museum themed on Renaissance, Neka Art Museum and Puri Lukisan Museum focusing on local heritage, and the Pasifikia Museum and Shell Museum on natural features. Massaging, skin therapies and relaxation therapy services are among the most featured offers, along with natural hot spring spots also located in Bali.White Sand beach and Padang Padang Beach are among the white and black sand beaches in the province. Beach areas if Sabur and Legian consist of urban colonies to allow people frolic the sands for the day. Jet Set Drive Marine Sports and Baruna Surfing are among popular means of engaging in adventure in the sea. Amed Scuba Tauchzentrum provides commercial diving services for exploring marine life underwater. Many of the water sports are popularly active throughout all seasons, may it be rafting, game fishing, yachting or surfing. Taking advantage of the fresh and clean environment, multiple indoor and open air spas are operating in the suburbs as well as the central areas of Bali. Sticking to its age-old traditions of skilled labour, Bali has avenues existent for observing masterpieces produced under professional craftsmanship. Get hands-on experience under the supervision of dedicated artists at the Chez Monique Silversmith class. Of course, everyone has heard of the world famous Balinese furniture home to this region, constructed from intricately woven cane and wood for being light weighted, durable and swanky. To avail all the nightlife, the central Street of Jalan Legian connects through urban centres of multiple towns to house most of the restaurants, clubs and cafes.

How to get around the city?
One can get around Bali easily in a taxi, a bemo minivan, public bus hailing from the tourist Parama network, or by hiring a rental cab. A bicycle can also be used for short distances along remote areas, especially where the roads are not quite as good. There is a healthy trend among the locals to use and rent motorbikes and scooters to tourists for easy commute in the area. The very same rental trend has led to the origination of Ojeks, consisting of motorcycle taxis for point-to-point commute within towns, commercial as well as residential areas. Traditional Dokar pony carts are also an option in certain rural areas of the island.
What's the best time to visit Bali?
Best time to visit Bali is from May to September when it's less humid and there's a less amount of rainfall.

All of these are luxury hotels with stylish architectures, comfortable rooms, and quality dining with hospitable staff. The mid-range accommodation options include the Ahimsa Estate, the Tandjung Sari, the Breezes Bali Resort and others. These stand out for offering fewer luxuries but they come at more affordable rates. Last come the budget places like the Green Garden Hotel or the Biyukukung Suites, these types of lodges and hotels offer clean rooms, less fancy restaurants and smaller swimming pools but they're available for very economical rates. Towards the coasts, fishing villages and the beaches, tourists are catered by surfer's bungalows consisting of studio based rooms and a living area. When it comes to booking private villas, tourists should come to terms that they're availing experiences featured in global travelogues, with the boutique category having infinity pools atop fields of greens, valleys, as well as rainforests.

Just a place to park and sleep if your visiting others in town. All sites are back in, and most of the camping area is dedicated to storage with a few monthly residents. We stay here when visiting as it is safe and there are no other options anyway. - Systemsnet
Oct 2010 - $30.00
I would like to clarify that this is not a campground but a camping area behind the RV Dealer. We stayed here for a month while renovations were being done to our home. It was convenient and fairly quiet. Sites are somewhat level and all sites have 30 amp only. There is a fair amount of mud around if it is rainy, and dusty if dry. But it was convenient for us and met our needs. Office staff was very accommodating. - eaglesfan

We were passing through en route to the Outer Banks and this was the only campground in the Raleigh area. I had called ahead to make sure there was a site and was told the site numbers. This is an RV dealership that has hook up sites that are mostly occupied by monthly renters. As we were pulling in, the police were at a travel trailer next to the site number we were told. After we were parked, we spoke to the resident who told us his camper was burglarized and the TV stolen, while he was away for the weekend. We did not rest easy that night. We did not see any pull though sites and we did not have cable. If there are cable sites, perhaps the monthlies are occupying them. There is a Walmart less than a mile away. - TwoNomads

This is a great RV Park to use as a "home base" while visiting Raleigh, mainly due to its location, price, and full hookups. However, there's nothing particularly interesting about the park itself: it's row after row of RV sites in a fenced-in grassy field. The sites are a bit close together, but with enough space that it's not claustrophobic. They don't take reservations, but you can call ahead to check availability. Once you arrive, you pick a site and call the ranger who will come by and collect payment via cash or check. The free WiFi didn't work for us, but the park was quite crowded while we were there due to a college football game at the stadium across the street. Verizon and AT&T worked well. The park is dog friendly. There are no picnic tables or fire rings, and while trash bins are located throughout the park, there is no recycling. We would stay here again if visiting Raleigh. - LifeRebooted
Nov 2015 - $30.00
Campsite is for self contained rvs only w 101 full hookups. Clean and level parking on gravel w nice grass on both sides. Campsite is part of State Fairgrounds and close to all activities in Raleigh area. We are here now for Holiday and we will come back anytime we want to be nearby.
That said, campsite is hard to find and directions off website are not specific. I will be so now. Area is part of Horse Shows for NC Fairgrounds. A real jewel at the price for full 30/50 amp sites IF you can find it . - David Fuller
Aug 2015 - $30.00
This campground is typical for a fairgrounds: no amenities beyond the basics: water, sewer, electric. Roads and sites were gravel, and a bit dusty (although a truck watered down the dust while we were there). Currently very few shady spots, but the trees are young and will provide more shade in the future. Security was good and the location was handy to Raleigh streets and highways. Very handy for getting to downtown locations or to NC State University. Wifi was acceptable, but was fairly weak in our site that was some distance from the antennas--the campground could use more antennas to provide better coverage. A price increase from $25 to $30 went into effect beginning in August. Overall, we would not hesitate to stay here again when we need to do business in Raleigh; the convenience to downtown, and to biking trails would be hard to beat in any other location. - Edistobob

First time camping here although it is less than 30 minutes from home. There are just a few sites that will accommodate a popup camper. We stayed on site 22 which is large enough to work for us. Fairly quiet campground other than the airplanes coming and going into nearby RDU. Overall a nice campground if you can live without electrical hook ups. - jrackley

Nice park but not designed for campers. There are 2 maybe 3 sites that can accommodate a trailer. There are no hook ups and they close the gate at 2000 until 0600. Nice park to visit and maybe if you camp in a tent it's fine but not for a camper. No alcohol allowed in the park if that's a consideration for you. - tx_rambler

Activating your multimedia keys with ReMoot
If your laptop multimedia keys aren't working in Linux, the fix could be easier than you think. We'll show you how to manage multimedia applications from the keyboard using ReMoot.
From this article, you will learn how to make Linux (with KDE) recognize special-function keys and how to make them function with all your favorite multimedia applications. Many contemporary desktop and laptop keyboards include multimedia keys (for "Play," "Mute," "Volume Up," and so on), but often these special keys don't work well with Linux. Recently, I decided it was high time to get the multimedia keys on my laptop to work.
I needed to solve two problems. The first was getting Linux to recognize the (potentially non-standard) keys; the second was getting each key to perform the necessary multimedia function. Fortunately, KDE lets you easily associate keyboard actions with commands, and a tool called ReMoot provides the necessary command set for accessing multimedia applications. In this article, I describehow to activate keyboard and laptop multimedia keys with ReMoot.

I installed this plugin for use with our training and development website, and I've been able to integrate it without much of a hassle. We even did test transactions, including refunds, and there were no problems. A good product that I'm sure will continue to get better over time. I'd like to have the ability to change more of how some of the screens looks (like the layout, not just the fonts and colors) so hopefully we'll see a few different themes in the future.
I'd recommend it and use it again. I'm not worried about the transaction fees... who doesn't charge transaction fees? Banks charge more directly, and this works flawlessly, so in my opinion it's paid for itself, because I don't have to deal with the hassle of contacting the bank whenever something doesn't work right.

"In logic and foundry, with the introduction of the new 3-D gate architectures, the yield issues our customers are grappling with today are proving to be the most challenging that the industry have ever faced, and even the smallest variation and process margin can cause significant yield losses for these devices,' says Wallace.
FD-SOI uses few masks and has less processing steps than finfet.
"At 28nm and 20nm, the lower power consumption and higher performance of FD-SOI compared to planar bulk CMOS gives major competitive advantages to FD-SOI in high volume portable applications," says Handel Jones, founder, chairman and CEO of International Business Strategies Inc, "the lower cost of FD-SOI die compared to 16nm finfet die provides an overwhelming advantage to utilising FD-SOI for high volume applications at this technology node."
Some companies could be looking again at what FD-SOI has to offer because even Intel seems to be struggling with 14nm finfet, after a reportedly smooth transition to finfet at 22nm.
Yesterday, the developer of FD-SOI, STMicroelectronics said it has recently signed up a foundry to take FD-SOI. ""We have just signed a strategic agreement with a top-tier foundry for 28nm FD-SOI technology," said Jean-Marc Chery, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Embedded Processing Solutions at ST, "this agreement expands the ecosystem, assures the industry of high-volume production of ST's FD-SOI based IC solutions for faster, cooler, and simpler devices and strengthens the business and financial prospects of the Embedded Processing Solutions Segment."
The uncertainty with finfets has caused manufacturers to stall investment plans, says KLA's Wallace.
"Issues related to leading edge device yield and high concentration of demand across a consolidated customer base and uncertainty over the timing of follow-on capacity have introduced a degree of variability into our quarterly demand forecast and have made visibility into our customer production plans extremely challenging today," says Wallace.
At the leading edge, FD-SOI has a big cost advantage over finfet and equivalent leakage, according to Jones.
"At 14nm/16nm, the FD-SOI die cost for a 100mm2 die is 28.2% lower than the bulk FinFET die cost and has higher yield," says Jones, "the leakage of FD-SOI devices is projected to be comparable to that of finfet devices."

This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Feral Children
(Self Released)
Saskatoon, SK
Feral Children is the 2009 electronic Tim Buckley; a forward-thinking, genre-hybridization of trends existing in the ethers of our musical consciousness. Where Tim Buckley channeled jazz, folk, and psychedelia to produce "emotional bellowing from the depths of a drug vortex" (dr. lloyd – waxidermy), Feral Children interpolates the fluxes of psychedelic-pop brewing on the borders of electronic music. His new songs are poppier, thicker, and voluminous; yet they conjure the same looping-pedal+drum-machine pop-lysergia present on his first album – now with more low-end, more psych, and more dance. It's a welcomed progression we rarely see on sophomore albums. A+++++++, fast shipping, will listen again.

New Orleans restaurant setting up shop in Houma
Published: Thursday, January 24, 2008 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 25, 2008 at 3:45 p.m.
HOUMA Houma residents will no longer need to travel all the way to New Orleans to enjoy some of the citys cuisine.
A New Orleans Hamburger and Seafood Co. of New Orleans will open on West Park Avenue in late February, marking the companys first expansion outside the New Orleans market.
This is the beginning of our new regional expansion, said Paul McGoey, co-owner and managing partner for the restaurant.
The other three owners are Sander Weiner, Norris Gremillion and Gary Weiner. And like McGoey, they all come from New Orleans.
There are three New Orleans Ham-burger and Seafood Co. restaurants in New Orleans. The first opened nearly 25 years ago on the Clearview Parkway, near the Huey P. Long Bridge. The second and third followed in 1988 and 1990.
McGoey said the Clearview restaurant is one of the first things people traveling to New Orleans from Houma see as U.S. 90 turns into the Clearview Parkway. And because of this, its picked up a following in Houma.
And this is one of the main reasons new site, at 6131 W. Park Ave., was chosen over one in Baton Rouge.
Houma is a market that knows us, McGoey said. We didnt feel like we had to break into new territory.
To read the full story, check out the Bayou Business Review section in the Houma Courier Sunday and in the Daily Comet Monday.
