Regional impact of war in Mali
| updated at xx
French military action – Opération Serval – against Islamists trying to take control of northern Mali has moved into a new phase: the deployment of troops.
While air raids have not stopped, now 800 French soldiers are on Malian soil. President François Hollande said in Paris that this number will soon rise to 2,500.
"Our mission is not over. Remember, it is to prepare for sending in an African intervention force, to allow Mali to recover its territorial integrity, in line with the resolutions of the UN Security Council."
Paris wants to hand over command of the mission as soon as possible to a force promised by The Economic Community Of West African States (ECOWAS). That force is supposed to receive European Union training, which is expected to take some time. This was agreed in November in Bamako.
Kadré Désiré Ouédraogo, the President of the ECOWAS Commission said that community must "more than ever mobilise for Mali and be ready to help defend its territorial integrity, dismantle terrorist and criminal networks, and to totally re-establish the authority of the state."
The networks referred to are those of the Islamist combatants, who, according to American estimates, number between 800 and 1,200, and, according to ECOWAS estimates double that, split into three groups: the Timbuktu-based al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, Kidal-based Ansar Dine and MUJWA in Gao.
Their offensive, launched last week, which triggered the French decision to intervene with air power, suggested these three groups will work together against the French-initiated intervention.
They are thought to be extensively linked.
Ansar Dine was founded by Malian Tuareg leader Iyad Ag Ghali, who became more radical after spending time in Saudi Arabia and distanced himself from his former allies in the north Malian separatist Movement for the Liberation of Azawad.
Michel Douti, an expert based in Senegal, said the three groups are different in little more than their names.
"Who can find the difference between AQIM and MUJWA? When they all agree Islamic sharia law must be imposed? Is it a question of skin colour? Because it's plain to see that the MUJWA are mostly from West African countries, especially Nigeria, Benin and Togo."
This expert, among others voicing concern over an emergence of a so-called 'black jihad', said the difference between al Qaeda in the Maghreb and MUJWA is like comparing Coke and Pepsi.
Francis Kpatindé is a journalist, and an expert on African affairs. He's been talking to Fabien Farge from euronews.
Fabien Farge euronews: "This war is first of all a war in which there is a forced silence from the media. It is almost impossible to see pictures of it. Why such censorship?"
Francis Kpatindé: "Let's say that the official strategy is to not to give pictures to the enemy. These Islamists, these Jihadists who are occupying north of Mali are using some of the civil population as shields and so I think the goal is to avoid scaring the Mali population, worrying them, and also to show that someone is here to help them but again avoid showing them images of collateral damage."
euronews: "What do you think the French strategy is then? And what could be the African Force strategy, how long will this war last?"
Francis Kpatindé: "This is a war that will last several years and I'm being very optimistic here. The Islamists who are occupying the north of Mali and also the west know the ground very well. This is their advantage, the fact they are from the region and have been living there for many years. They know the smallest rock, the smallest cavern in that region."
euronews: "Among the different threats that exist, there is one of probable Islamist retaliation on various countries like Nigeria, Algeria, Niger, even Senegal for example.
Francis Kpatindé: "Absolutely, and I can tell you that the Intelligence services, the army and the security forces of Senegal are on maximum alert. But Senegal is not the only country which is exposed right now. Niger is a neighbour of Mali. There is Algeria, I think it is the country which knows Jihadists best, especially AQIM. But the most fragile countries in the region are Senegal, Niger, maybe Guinea and then, Ivory Coast."
euronews: "On Thursday in Paris there will be a conference about the humanitarian situation and human rights in Mali, hosted by the Foreign Affairs Ministry. What is your view of the conference?"
Francis Kpatindé: "That's important, it proves that we are already in a post-war reflection. And this is a pretty good signal because as the French Defence Minister said, you do war to destroy an enemy, but you have to think of the civil population and their return after the war. Put the structures back into operation.
'For months, these Jihadists have been cutting off arms, molesting women for adultery, banning people from smoking or going to the movies or playing football. This is unacceptable. The North of Mali has to get its serenity back. It is a country where people love life, where people love to have fun. They are poor but they are good people. Their Islam is tolerant. Mali needs the serenity of its charms back."

Customer Reviews
June 2016
This was a great tour of the city and biking was a fun way. Very easy biking, very minimal biking on streets, felt safe and comfortable the whole time not a frequent biker. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and offered great insights into the city. The mix of historical sites and local neighborhoods was perfect and our guide directed us to a great area for lunch that we would have never found on our own. Strongly recommend to others.

Utah Jazz remain mum on selections for draft
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — Jazz general manager Kevin O'Connor was impressed by the level of effort displayed during the team's first workout of draft prospects.
"We saw a lot of good competition," O'Connor said. "Guys got after each other pretty good today."
Whether that means any of the six players in attendance — none of whom are projected to go before the Jazz's third and 12th picks — will be drafted by Utah on June 23 remains to be seen.
And good luck trying to pry that information out of O'Connor. Though he spoke for 15 minutes, he offered up six "no comment" answers during a media interview Sunday in regards to specifics about the draft.
Do the Jazz think Kyrie Irving or Derrick Williams will be available at No. 3? Is Utah looking for a point guard to groom? Are any of this workout's attendees — Norris Cole, JaJuan Johnson, Dallas Lauderdale, Shelvin Mack, Markieff Morris or Jeremy Tyler — in the No. 12 range?
"No comment," O'Connor repeated.
O'Connor only offered up that the Jazz are keeping their options open, that they are doing their homework on all of the prospects and that they won't pass up Michael Jordan if his name is on the board.
"I think you take the best player available," O'Connor said. "In this draft, I think you look at it and say, 'Who's the best player available?' and you take him."
O'Connor did give some insight into what the Jazz are looking for from a player:
"How hard do they play? How successful can they be in our league? And what kind of character do they have?" O'Connor said. "After that, everything else is on the periphery."
The Jazz will hold their next round of workouts Tuesday, although they haven't released names of participants.
Utah brass will meet with Turkish standout Enes Kanter, a 6-foot-10 center many mock drafts have going to the Jazz at No. 3. O'Connor brushed off how Kanter canceled an interview opportunity with Utah — and other teams — at the Chicago combine.
"It was a lot about nothing," O'Connor said of speculation surrounding Kanter's decision, which some took as him not wanting to play for the Jazz. "He felt uncomfortable because of his background because of his language to sit down for 16 interviews."
But Kanter did take part in the camp's drills, which impressed O'Connor.
"He did something to me that obviously no other player has done, and that's work out there at his draft quote-unquote status," the Jazz GM said. "We'll get a chance to sit down with him and have coach with us and get a chance to see him."

The design of network elements for real-time control networks requires careful consideration of the fundamental timing requirements. The use of a timed automata approach for modelling and verifying the timing requirements promises to be beneficial. In this work a case study approach is shown where a model of the packet scheduler component for a network switch element is developed, based on a timed automata method. Using the Uppaal model checker certain properties are verified. The timed behaviour of the model can be assessed, based on clocks incorporated into the timed automata model.

Ive been dealing with a e level vertebrae blow out sine 1993, bilateral median nerve neuropathy, bilateral ulnar palsy and bilateral radiiculaphthy. I also have a TBI, chthonic ,ingrained and just learned of a new disease in my body......Keinbach's...lack of blood flow to the bones. I had bee treated by ank outside pain mgmnt doctor foe years, bur ew aliased this was Va. I enrolled in the Va, they took over all of my care, my PCP left in December and the Pa can't write narcotic scripts. I'm supposed to finally see a dr on 3/19 and hope and pray he stays there and fills my Meds back to normal so I can function, work, care for my family and umpire baseball.

I have heard about pain management as well. It is quite interesting and maybe helpful for those who complain about pain in their body.

has anyone had problems with local synergy pain office in Oneida?
#4 Apr 2, 2013
I love how doctors and nurses use the words "complain about pain". Really? Guess what I did for this country I signed a contract while the US was (still is) engaged in war, as a result my back is seriously compromised and I can't live a normal life.
Complain? Why don't you see how long you can last in combat arms in todays military. Get your hands a little dirty and we will see how long you last without coming out "complaining of pain". Why don't you fuse your backs up for the hell of it and see how well you function after the surgery.
Meanwhile you enjoy your AC and your fancy cars and 4 bedroom houses and your pain free lifestyle.
#5 Apr 3, 2013
Yup, had my a$$ in the grass for many years in the marines. Took a couple 7.62 rounds for the good ol USA. Pain from my military training and tours is 24/7. Damn right I'll complain with this pain. No office nerd is going to tell me to stop complaining.
#6 Apr 4, 2013
Interestingly enough I used to umpire baseball also. Ouch, I've been clobbered by foul tips and line drives. I retired from baseball as my Dr cautioned me that ( after a injury) I could get killed. I agreed. In Calif., PA's and NP's CAN prescribe most anything.

I've had my share of clobbers by foul tips and line drives. Sometimes I wonder if I'm a magnet for the Baseballl. The players and coaches have a ball with me,.......well I'm a 4'11 female and umpire baseball...funny sight when I get a really tall catcher and batter!
I'm still sitting out this season due to the injuries and pain. Hopefully one day.

DEFINITION of 'Primary Offering'
The first of issuance of stock for public sale from a private company. This is the means by which a private company can raise equity capital through the financial markets in order to expand its business operations. This can also include debt issuance.
Also known as an "initial public offering" (IPO).
BREAKING DOWN 'Primary Offering'
A primary offering is usually done to help a young, growing company expand its business operations, but can also be done by a mature company that still happens to be a private company. Primary offerings can be followed by secondary offerings, which serve as a way for a company that is already publicly traded to raise further equity capital for its business. After the offering and the receipt of the funds raised, the securities are traded on the secondary market, where the company does not receive any money from the purchase and sale of the securities they previously issued.

2013 Potash Corp Wintershines Festival now under way
A young climber looks up at the height he's about to scale and the 2013 Potash Corp Wintershines Festival.
CTV Saskatoon
Published Saturday, January 26, 2013 6:26PM CST
Last Updated Saturday, January 26, 2013 6:27PM CST
The annual Potash Corp Wintershines Festival kicked off on Saturday.
White they didn't have Frosty the snowman, the festival had just about anything else one could want from a collection of winter fun.
Old favourites like the ice slide and petting zoo were big hits, but it was a new attraction that had young and old lined up. The ice wall, a scalable sheet of ice gave festival goers a chance to see what it's like to do some real winter climbing. Participants were armed with special axes, spikey shoes, and of course, the proper safety gear.
For those who are more faint of heart, there were also sleigh rides, pony rides, and beautiful ice-art on display.
Organizers said they had roughly 5,000 people in the festival every hour Saturday.
Wintershines runs all week.

The characters were, once again, very real, the story exciting and fast paced, the ending satisfying but leaving the situation open enough to, hopefully, allow for another instalment!
At the end of book two -Edge of Oblivion-Eliana was on the run. Her father, unbeknownst to her, was a traitor to the Ikati people and her last image was of the man she once loved- Demetrius- holding a knife over the bloody body of her murdered father. Fast forward three years and Eliana is now a strong, independent woman and an international art thief. Trained for battle, Eliana will find herself on the receiving end of a take down that will see a death sentence for betrayal and crimes against the Ikati. Iliana is presumed guilty by association-she is her father's daughter. Only Iliana is not aware of her father's treason and her brother's future plans.
Enter Demetrius-Demetrius has been searching for the woman that he loves for three years. She is of the mistaken belief that he murdered her father-a man who has betrayed the Ikati-murdering and persecuting innocent humans and hybrids for years. Demetrius only knows one thing-he needs to find Iliana; his mind, his heart and his soul demand that he finds his mate before he takes out everyone within his reach.
The storyline is slow to build as J.T. jumps between Iliana and Demetrius's backstory and current situations-which are detailed and necessary to the plot. The reader is introduced to Iliana's new family of underground runners hoping to establish a new colony of those who have been unhappy with the current Ikati controlling powers. Let us hope there are a few storylines among her friends.Read more ›
The two main characters of Eliana and Demetrius are fun. Eliana is spunky, despite having been brought up in a patriarchal society where she is viewed as a second-class citizen. Demetrius is all man (well, shifter), complete with shaved head, tattoos and body piercings. Makes a refreshing change from the visions of male perfection that you normally have in paranormal romances.
Yes, they had a past, but from Eliana's perspective, seeing the man for whom she was having feelings, standing over her father's body with a gun, was a bit damning. That it turned out to be a kill or be killed situation was not something she realised. I did like the way that she didn't fall into Demetrius' arms half way through the book, swearing her undying love. Yes, she loves him, but is she prepared to trust him?
Characters from earlier books make an appearance e.g. Leander and Jenna from the first book.
Overall, I would say that I enjoyed it enough that I will be buying the first book in the series for comparison.
I have been a huge fan of this series from the first book and I'm happy to confirm that the books just get better and better with every instalment. I have it on good authority from a friend of mine that this book can be read even if you haven't read the previous books but I would still personally recommend reading the series in order. Although each book focuses on a different couple there is a complex ongoing plot that threads throughout all of the stories and I think you will get more out of it if you read the books in the order they were written. This is a fantastic series though and one I'd highly recommend to anyone who likes their paranormal romance fast paced, packed with action and full of fabulous characters.Read more ›

Colonel Chabertby Honore De Balzac Carol Cosman
The story of a French military hero of the Napoleonic Wars, long assumed to be dead, tries to recover his fortune and former wife through the help of a famous Parisian lawyer. Colonel Chabert, a Napoleonic War hero supposedly killed in the Battle of Eylau, returns to Paris after a long convalescence to find his wife remarried, and his pension gone. He employs a young, well-known lawyer to at least reclaim his pension. It is a game of wits: first to convince the lawyer that he is who he says he is; secondly to get his wife to admit to his identity and thereby give up some of her wealth. Once the lawyer believes Chabert's story, the wife must be made to part with his pension...
Droll Storiesby Honore De Balzac
Balzac's Contes Drolatiques, published in three installments in the 1830s, offers a lively and lusty portrait of sixteenth-century French life and manners. These thirty stories in the tradition of Boccaccio, Chaucer, and Rabelais were claimed by the author to have originated in manuscripts from the abbeys of Touraine. Abounding in episodes of good-humored licentiousness, the tales scandalized Balzac's contemporaries and continue to delight modern readers.French novelist and playwright Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850) was a founder of realism in European literature. An inspiration to Proust, Dickens, Faulkner, Dostoyevsky, and countless others, Balzac wrote works that were hailed for their multifaceted characters and exquisite attention to detail. This edition's excellent translation was the first to make Contes Drolatiques available to English-speaking readers.

Pastel Makeup For Grown-Ups? Yes, It's Possible
Photo: Via Cup of Jo.
Even though colorful makeup, hair, and nails have become as ubiquitous as green juice these days, there's something about pastel makeup in particular that is uniquely terrifying. In a way, these soft, watercolor shades seem like they could be endlessly flattering. On the other hand, if you're older than 15, you might fear that these candy-colored shades could look saccharine — or, worse, like you're trying to appear "young." After all, nothing says "stuck in third-period algebra" like shimmery pastel lip gloss. (Or, was that just our teen experience?)
Thankfully, Cup of Jo is here to prove that grown women can pull off typically Barbie-tastic shades to completely gorgeous (and grown-up) effect. In a recent DIY photo shoot, Joanna Goddard partnered with makeup artist Ashlee Glazer to figure out how to make these sweet shades wearable — and it was a smashing success. Click on over to Cup of Jo for the full tutorial and the products that will help you get the look. (Cup of Jo)

If you're tired of using knitting patterns for men that are bland, boring and unshapely, I think you'll get a kick out of this Revolution Jacket. With a slight feel of a civil war jacket, this piece is made with the split stitch. At some points in this pattern, you'll be knitting with two strands of yarn at once. While a little more time consuming, the end result is definitely worth all of the work!
Knitting Needle Size: 10 or 6 mm, Circular Knitting Needles
Yarn Weight: (4) Medium Weight/Worsted Weight and Aran (16-20 stitches to 4 inches)

Absolutely not. I think this pattern is ugly and the men in my life would not wear anything like this. It's too long and my guys don't like cuffs. The lapel style is not something my men would go for either. They prefer simple, classic styles and if we want to liven it up I'll knit Fair Isle or intaglio.

DYKSTRA URGES CUs TO TAKE ACTION
updated 08/11/14 03:01 PM
AB 2293 Would Protect Consumers
California and Nevada Credit Union Leagues President and CEO Diana Dykstra called on credit unions last week to encourage their staff to take immediate action on Assembly Bill 2293, which seeks to protect consumers by requiring Transportation Network Companies (TNCs) to provide physical damage coverage.
To take action, click here! Select the take action option under Transportation Network Companies: Uber and Lyft, and follow the steps to submit a letter to your state senator urging support for AB 2293.
The rise of Transportation Network Companies (TNCs), such as Uber and Lyft, has resulted in unintended consequences for credit unions. Although credit unions require insurance for all vehicles they provide loans for, that insurance does not cover all instances when drivers enter their vehicle into TNC services such as Uber and Lyft. When accidents occur while these cars are "in service," there is no financial backstop to cover vehicle damages.
Ultimately, a credit union can be left with a significant reduction in collateral value.
Currently, Assembly Bill 2293 is pending in the California State Senate. "We need to make sure credit unions are protected by ensuring that damage coverage is also required for vehicles used to provide TNC services," Dykstra said.
You can also forward the www.ConnectForTheCause.com web link to your credit union colleagues, asking them to take action.
