Kristjansson, Kuenzi Write Response to "Smear Campaign"
Darcy Kuenzi (left) and Sue Kristjansson have refuted fliers they describe as "inaccurate, mi...
Menifee City Council members Sue Kristjansson and Darcy Kuenzi have prepared a public rebuttal in response to questions from residents who have received unsigned fliers with accusations about the candidates.
|Darcy Kuenzi (left) and Sue Kristjansson have refuted fliers
they describe as "inaccurate, misleading and slanderous."
In her closing comments during tonight's 6 p.m. candidates forum, Kristjansson will make reference to the letter, co-authored by her and Kuenzi. Copies of that letter will be made available to those who attend the forum, which will take place in Webb Hall at the Sun City Civic Association campus, 26850 Sun City Blvd.
Kristjansson is one of four candidates running for the District 1 city council seat who are scheduled to take part in tonight's forum. Mayoral candidate Scott Mann also is scheduled to participate. Kuenzi, also a candidate for mayor, will not be in attendance in order to support a close family friend who is undergoing surgery, but a statement will be read in her behalf.
In a Sept. 10 report on Menifee 24/7, Kristjansson and Kuenzi denied all allegations made against them in the fliers, which they had discovered were being left on the doorsteps of Menifee residents. The author of those fliers has not been determined since then, but both candidates say many residents still have copies of the fliers or are concerned about their content.
"People still have these fliers or remember getting them," said Kristjansson, who said she doesn't know if new copies are being distributed. "They are asking why I haven't issued a rebuttal. If there are still people who believe these things, it's necessary for us to refute them."
In the rebuttal letter that will be presented at tonight's forum, Kristjansson and Kuenzi describe the fliers as "a vicious smear campaign by a person or group that is circulating an unsigned, crudely prepared flier filled with inaccurate, misleading and slanderous statements."
In the letter, they refer to two sections of the California Code of Fair Campaign Practices. One prohibits the use of character defamation against any candidate and the other requires that candidates publicly repudiate support from any individual or group who participates in this kind of activity against an opposing candidate.
"Not only is this flier offensive to us, it is an affront on the seniors of the Sun City area where it has been distributed," the letter continues. "Many of the ones being targeted do not have access to outside source of information and may be unfairly influenced by such hateful means to affect their vote."
The letter asks any resident receiving one of the fliers to contact Kristjansson or Kuenzi so they can determine the source of the fliers and address the individuals face to face.
"People have seen these fliers and some have contacted me," Kuenzi said. "They are not fooled by it. I've lived in this community for 20 years and people know me better than that. I have faith and trust

The New York Post reports today, in their editorial section, http://nypost.com/2014/01/30/chick-fil-a-values/ that Chick fil-A stores in the Birmingham, Alabama, have been cooking up food for free for motorists stranded in snowstorms and also letting stranded travelers spend the night in their stores.
The editorial mentions that Rahm Emanuel, the Mayor of Chicago, previously said that Chick fil-A's values had no place in his city. I think Emanuel has no idea how ironic his statement is. To quote the editorial, "company CEO Dan Cathy makes no bones about running a family-owned business based 'on the values rooted in the Bible.'"
This New York Post editorial gives me an opportunity to state that I went out in the snow in New York to attempt to join the National Chick fil-A Day rally for Duck Dynasty at the New York City branch. It is located in the ground floor Food Court of a dormitory at New York University and is open to the public (I've eaten there before). But when I got to the building on the 21st of January, I found that the entire food court was closed, so I couldn't attend a rally near me on a snowy day.

Thank you for the info.
Robert, you fill out this form at Chick fil-A's website to contact them:
There's not a Chic-Fil-A in my area. If there was I'd eat there. Who do I contact to try and get a Chic-Fil-A around here? Do they have SPICY chicken sandwiches?
Great products, great service, and Christian practice in daily life is a winning combination. I see more and more of this every day where I live.
I love Chick fil-A and Hobby Lobby
My favorite place to eat. Even the young kids working there are polite, clean and caring. God will always have the last say and I'm sure they can count on favor from above all the way.

Catholic high school teacher admits to sexually abusing 3 former students
A Catholic high school teacher admitted to allegations of sexually abusing three former students, according to a release from the Archdiocese of Baltimore.
One of the victims came forward recently to the Archdiocese to report the abuse. She said the incidents occurred in the 1980s at then-Archbishop Keough High, an all-girls school that became Seton Keough after a merger with Seton High in 1987.
Helene Murtha, 58, admitted to having a "series of sexual encounters" with three former students.
"The Archdiocese immediately reported the allegation to the appropriate civil authorities and will continue to cooperate fully with any investigation(s)," according to the release.
Murtha told the Archdiocese that the incidents occurred at her home, at the high school and at the Monsignor O'Dwyer Retreat House in Sparks, Maryland.
Murtha taught at Archbishop Keough from 1977 to 1992 and again in 2010 and 2011 as a substitute teacher and a full-time member of the school's Campus Ministry Team, according to the release.
Prior to her return to the high school, Murtha served as the Associate Dean of Student Life at the then-College of Notre Dame of Maryland.
Murtha also periodically worked in the Archdiocese's Division of Youth and Young Adult Ministry, serving in a number of positions related to youth retreats and other programs, the release states.
"The Archdiocese of Baltimore is committed to protecting children and helping to heal victims of abuse," according to the release. "We urge anyone who has any knowledge of any child sexual abuse to come forward, and to report it immediately to civil authorities.
If clergy or other Church personnel are suspected of committing the abuse, we ask that you also call the Archdiocesan Office of Child and Youth Protection Hotline at 1-866- 417-7469."

On a nice ride through Lake Lure in October of 2007 the "WHO" came across a car show so awesome we just had to print it. Motor head, enthusiast, collector or just plain car or truck fanatic you will enjoy flipping through the photographs from that beautiful day. And these you can keep forever.
I retired from the Navy several years ago and quickly discovered that I enjoy several hobbies- my motorcycle, my camera, and art. About a year ago I decided to combine the three. How kewl is that? With all the riding I do with my friends and all the pictures I take while we ride why not put them together. So I came up with "View on Two". A series of photography books taken from our road trips on two wheels. Each with its own unique theme. Enjoy!

Recognition of Governments in International Law With Particular Reference to Governments in ExileAuthor:
Talmon, Stefan
Publisher: Oxford University Press, Incorporated
Summary: Based on an analysis of the diplomatic practice of States, and decisions by national and international courts, this book explores the two central questions of the recognition of governments. These are namely: what are the meanings of the term 'recognition' and its variants in international law; and what is the effect of recognition on the legal status of foreign authorities, and in particular of authorities in exile ...recognized as governments. The book is comprehensive in its analysis of the issues, and covers material which is of significant historical interest, as well as highly topical material such as recent developments in Angola, Kuwait and Haiti. Thus Talmon's book will hold great appeal for international law scholars and practitioners alike. It may also be of interest to diplomats and civil servants working in organizations such as the United Nations. [read more]

January Jones claims she's nothing like one of television's most dysfunctional mothers, Betty Draper. I'm not so sure these days that I can say the same.
Speaking to Mom.me, the actress, who is mother of 10-month-old Xander, shared insight into what it's like to play her Mad Men character Betty Draper.
January Jones' opinion of Betty Draper:
"I try not to judge her. It's like she's a relative you are embarrassed about. I disagree with her a lot…I don't think I'd be her friend, but I defend her fiercely when someone says something about her."
On working with Kiernan Shipka, who plays Betty Draper's daughter Sally:
"We have had a lot of emotional and sometimes difficult things to do, whether it's getting slapped or pulling her by the hair…I've said awful things to her. But I'll talk to her beforehand and explain the physical aspects of how it is going to work and if I am ever going too far. We make sure to communicate. But she is just a very mature, well-parented, put-together young woman and I think that it has been a privilege watching her grow."
On the time Betty Draper slapped Sally:
"Yeah, I think people are quick to forget that it wasn't that uncommon. I mean, I was spanked as a kid, and I wasn't born in the '60s. [It was 1978, in fact]. I think that the show addresses things like that to remind people of their past and how far we come. It's a good reminder of what not to do."
On if her real life mothering is influenced by Betty Draper:
"Well, I certainly don't take anything from Betty home. I have nothing in common with her when it comes mothering. I don't see it as a burden or irritation. I feel very lucky and I feel like it was something that I was meant to do. I'm at the right age and the right time in my life where it's just so much fun. And I don't think Betty sees the fun in that…I think she sees it as an inconvenience."
It's that last bit that hit a little too close to home for me. We're a full month into summer break and my patience has begun to run thin. I have work to do, a house to unpack, so on and so forth — and yes, my two boys have begun to seem like an inconvenience.
Sad, right?
I'm trying to pull it together, make things happen and get on with it. I've shelled out nearly $300 for them to go to day camp next week. Hopefully I'll get caught up and be feeling fresh and new when the week runs out, because at that rate they certainly can't go all summer.
If you'd asked me months ago if I were a Betty Draper/Debbie Downer parent I'd have been able to say 'no' without cringing on the inside. Summer vacation, however, is wearing me thin.
Is there any part of you that's a Betty Draper parent? Misery loves company.

Samsung readying something called "S Life" for CTIA 2010
Samsung plans to unveil something new at CTIA Wireless 2010 (23 – 25 March).
The new Samsung product is called "S Life", and Samsung says that it's "as much a feeling as it is an incredible achievement" and it should bring "enrichment through technology and simplicity through innovation."
Since it's part of the Samsung Unpacked series of events, which until now brought us the Samsung Jet S8000 and the Samsung Wave S8500, this could be a phone or a smartphone (maybe another Bada-based handset) – although, of course, we can't be sure of anything at the moment.
The mysterious Samsung S Life product will be unveiled on March 23 in Las Vegas, so we don't have too much to wait.

Edwards and England in a hurry
Follow England women's progress on ecb.co.uk - click here for exclusive interviews and videos, latest news, match reports and more
England women got their NatWest Quadrangular Twenty20 series off to a flying start with an eight-wicket win over New Zealand at Chelmsford.
After New Zealand could only manage a disappointing 83 with just three batsmen making double figures, captain Charlotte Edwards struck an unbeaten 40 off 36 balls as England reached their victory target in 13.1 overs to cap an impressive all-round performance.
England executed their plans perfectly in the field and were thankful of the contributions from Arran Brindle and Holly Colvin, who took three wickets apiece.
Colvin deceived the New Zealand batsmen with her flight and guile on her way to impressive figures of 3-17 in the middle overs, while Brindle, who opened the bowling with Katherine Brunt, returned at the death to finish with 3-11 off four overs.
Edwards' decision to field first after winning the toss was justified as early as the fifth ball of the match as Brunt comprehensively bowled Aimee Watkins with one that held its line to hit off stump.
New Zealand struggled to cope with the moving ball and, despite only losing one wicket, could muster just 24 runs from the six-over powerplay.
Amy Satterthwaite edged a shot off Colvin to Danielle Wyatt at short third man before the slow left-armer had opener Suzie Bates, attempting to paddle-sweep, caught at short fine-leg by Claire Taylor for 19.
She struck again in the 12th over by claiming a return catch off Sara McGlashan, and to make matters worse for New Zealand Liz Perry was run out attempting a quick single to Colvin as England continued to impress in the field.
As New Zealand went in search of some much-needed runs, Brindle and Danielle Hazell shared the final five wickets.
Some neat work from wicketkeeper Sarah Taylor saw Lucy Doolan stumped off Brindle before Hazell trapped Nicola Browne lbw for 13.
England showed their athleticism once again in the field when Lydia Greenway took an excellent catch running in from the boundary as Rachel Priest, showing signs of aggression, became Brindle's second victim.
Hazell caught and bowled Kate Broadmore before Brindle wrapped up the innings by bowling Sian Ruck to leave England a simple run-chase.
England started quickly and looked comfortable on a wicket that had proved difficult for their Kiwi counterparts. Edwards stamped her authority on the game in the first over as she despatched Browne to the boundary on three occasions.
Fellow opener Laura Marsh also attacked in the powerplay and had reached 24 off 20 balls by the time she drove Ruck straight to Bates to end an opening stand of 42.
England lost Claire Taylor after she was unluckily run out backing up, but it was plain sailing from there as Edwards hit the winning runs with a well-timed flick off her legs that raced to the boundary.
They meet Australia at Bristol on Saturday before England men take on Sri Lanka and today's player of the match Colvin is eager to carry their form into the weekend.
She said: "I was really pleased with my bowling but it was a great team effort in the field. All the bowlers had a good day and we'll be confident going into the game against Australia on Saturday."
Edwards was equally upbeat about her side's chances against Australia, adding: "Katherine Brunt bowled brilliantly today and the spinners chipped away and bowled fantastically and were backed up well by the fielders.
"We've worked hard on our fielding recently and it has been something we have always prided ourselves on, so I'm really pleased with the performance today.
"It's great the way we went out there and knocked off the runs, we were aggressive from the start and Laura Marsh played fantastically well.
"I'm really looking forward to playing Australia on Saturday. It should be an exciting game in Bristol."
Australia also got their campaign off to an impressive start with a comprehensive eight-wicket victory over India.
Sarah Coyte took 4-5 off four overs as India were bowled out for a meagre 62 with only Harmanpreet Kaur, who made 41, reaching double figures.
After losing Shelley Nitschke early on, Australia reached their target in 10.2 overs with opener Leah Poulton striking an unbeaten 31 off 28 balls.

text: Jul 9, 2014 13:59 Why nukes keep finding trouble: They're really old Why nukes keep finding trouble: They're really old This photo taken June 24, 2014, shows an ICBM launch site located among fields in the countryside outside Minot, N.D. on the Minot Air Force Base. The nuclear missiles hidden in plain view across the prairies of northwest North Dakota reveal one reason why trouble keeps finding the nuclear Air Force. The "Big Stick," as some call the 60-foot-tall Minuteman 3 missile, is just plain old. (AP Photo/Charlie Riedel) ROBERT BURNS| AP National Security Writer July 8, 2014; 11:19 a.m. Comments MINOT AIR FORCE BASE, N.D. (AP) — The Minuteman 3 nuclear missiles hidden in full view across the High Plains are not only huge, at 60 feet tall. They are really old, too. And that is one reason why trouble keeps finding the nuclear Air Force. The Air Force asserts with pride that the missile system, now more than 40 years old, is safe and secure. But it also admits to fraying at the edges. There are time-worn command posts, corroded launch silos and an emergency-response helicopter fleet so antiquated that a replacement was deemed "critical" years ago. That partly explains why missile corps morale has sagged and discipline has sometimes faltered, as revealed in a series of Associated Press reports documenting problems that prompted worry at the highest levels of the Pentagon.

Update 5/14/14 3:45 p.m. (PST): According to TMZ, the dog was picked up in an "extremely aggressive state" by animal control - the dog will be euthanized.
According to WXYZ News, a family cat in Bakersfield, Calif., is being hailed a hero after saving a young boy from a dog attack.
The terrifying scene was captured on surveillance cameras on Tuesday - the video shows Roger Triantafilo's son riding his bike in the driveway when a dog sneaks around a parked vehicle and rushes to attack the boy's leg.
Before more damage can be inflicted, the family cat, named "Tara," boldly leaps at the attacking dog who turns tail and bolts away.
Though the attack was brief, the child was injured badly enough to require stitches. If not for Tara's assistance, things could have ended much worse.
According to the publication, the dog belongs to a neighbor and is currently "under observation."

Former User Account
- From: "Richard McVey" <randrmcvey@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
- Date: Mon, 6 Oct 2008 13:55:10 -0500
After my computer froze up I retured it to its original factory settings. I
also upgraded at this time to Windows Vista Service Pack 1. I then set up my
user account and attempted to restore the files and settings I backed up on
an external hard drive. In attemting to restore my files I get this message,
" The files you are retoring have security permissions for a user account
which could not be found on this computer. " Essentially, I then get a link
which sends me back to the area where I can create a user account that
matches the user account I had before I rest the computer to the factory
settings. The problem I have is that the original user I had was like this,
JohnDoe123\owner. When I tried to make an exact duplicate I get an error
message that tells me I cannot use various characters to include the \. So
I am stuck. I can not retrieve my files. Any help?

The U.S. Dollar gained versus most of its counterparts as jitters over the sovereign debt crisis boosted appeal for U.S. assets including bonds and stocks. The greenback extended gains as Italy's 10-year bond yields remained unchanged at close to the 7 percent level. Investors are no longer at ease about the debt situation, especially as European bond spreads widened once again. On the economic front, Industrial Production rose more than anticipated; metrics revealed it went up by a 0.7 percent seasonally adjusted rate. And while the U.S. monetary unit trimmed earlier gains in an extremely volatile trading session, fears of an escalating debt crisis in the Euro zone helped the currency rebound. Separate releases showed that the Consumer Price Index dipped for the first time in four months. Meanwhile, the Canadian Dollar strengthened against the majority of its counterparts on signs that the U.S. economy is recovering –a factor that boosted confidence in the market and in risk assets. The Loonie pared losses versus the greenback as crude oil rose to $102 a barrel.
The Euro traded at a five-week low versus the U.S. Dollar and the Yen on speculations that the European Central Bank will have to buy more debt in order to contain the debt crisis. The shared currency pared losses after the Federal Reserve chairman, Ben Bernanke, indicated that the Fed may work in conjunction with the ECB in order to prevent the crisis from worsening. The Euro zone's currency continued to drop as Fitch Ratings indicated that U.S. banks are in serious danger and are jeopardizing their "credit worthiness" as the crisis in the E.U. escalates. Spain is scheduled to auction 4 billion Euros in bonds today, while France will attempt to sell more than $8 billion Euros of debt. Other currency trading reports revealed that the Pound Sterling weakened against the U.S. currency after the Bank of England's governor, Mervyn King, forecast U.K. growth will be "broadly flat" in the first half of 2012. And according to analysts, the growth outlook will continue to weigh on the Pound. Furthermore, 10-year gilts declined as reports indicated a hike in unemployment. The U.S. Dollar rose against the Swiss Franc following better than expected CPI metrics.
In Japan, the central bank left interest rates unchanged and reduced its economic outlook after Governor Masaaki Shirakawa referred to the E.U.'s situation as a "danger for the export-led recovery" of the nation. According to strategists, the strengthening of the Yen has hurt automakers and the Bank of Japan may increase its asset-purchasing plan.
Lastly, the South Pacific currencies slumped against the greenback on worries that the European debt crisis may continue to worsen. New Zealand's monetary unit fell to a six week low versus the U.S. Dollar on speculation that the central bank may reduce borrowing costs by 7 basis points. The Aussie dipped despite reports revealing a hike in pay rates excluding bonuses.
EUR/USD- ECB May Have To Buy More Debt
The Euro traded at an almost five week low against the U.S. Dollar on rumors that the ECB will have no choice but to purchase more government debt in order to help the region deal with the growing crisis. Fresh concerns placed added pressure on the yields of several Euro region economies, causing French 10-year bonds to reach Euro-era record highs while Italy's 10-year bonds remained close to the 7 percent level. The Euro managed to trim some of its losses but the bond yields remained under pressure despite ECB purchases. On the data front, metrics showed that Consumer Inflation in the region remained at 3 percent for the month of October.
GBP/USD- Growth Outlook Weighs On Sterling
Britain's currency weakened against the U.S. Dollar after the Bank of England issued a statement indicating the country faces weaker growth in the first half of 2012, leading to the possibility of further stimulus. The 10-year gilts dropped to record lows following a release showing that unemployment levels rose, while youth in the U.K. lost more than one million jobs for the first time since 1992. According to the central bank, inflation may not fall below 2 percent for two years. The International Labor Organization stated that unemployment increased by 129,000 jobs and the rate increased to 8.3 percent, which is a 15-year high.
USD/JPY- BOJ Reduces Growth Outlook
The U.S. Dollar traded higher against the Japanese Yen on the release of better than anticipated U.S. CPI which revealed a drop to a seasonally adjusted -0.1 percent in the last month. Meanwhile, the Bank of Japan reduced the growth outlook for the country, citing the Euro-zone's economic crisis as the main reason. The central bank had to ease its policy in the past few weeks as the strengthening of the Yen continued to hurt exporters. The Bank of Japan indicated it may implement further stimulus if the currency continues to gain and may even consider buying foreign-denominated bonds in the months to come in order to reduce the value of the currency. According to the BOJ, economic growth will slow down to 2.1 percent in the last quarter of the year.
USD/CAD- Crude Oil Reaches Above $100
The Canadian Dollar traded mixed as sentiment fluctuated between risk appetite and jitters over the sovereign debt crisis. The Loonie rose versus the majority of its counterparts on signs that the U.S. economy is finally on its path to recovery and this will benefit the country's exports. But the currency pared losses versus the U.S. Dollar after crude oil reached above $100 a barrel. The currency had dipped to a five-week low on increased concerns that the Euro zone's turmoil will dampen demand for risk assets. According to analysts, the positive U.S. economic reports usually benefit Canada's economy.
Today's Outlook
Today's economic calendar shows that the U.K. will report on Retail Sales. The Bank of Japan will release its monthly report. The U.S. will issue data on the Initial and Continuing Jobless Claims, Housing Starts, Building Permits and the Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing Index.

Watch: Arabs Gather on Temple Mount to Celebrate Rocket Strikes
Crowds of Muslims gather at Al Aqsa mosque to celebrate rockets reaching as far as 'occupied Jerusalem'.
By Ari Soffer
First Publish: 7/8/2014, 11:52 PM
A video has emerged showing hundreds of Arabs flooding the plaza of the Al Aqsa mosque on the Temple Mount to celebrate the sounding of air raid sirens in Jerusalem.
The crowds can be heard whistling and chanting in celebration of the fact that Hamas rockets reached as far as the capital city Tuesday evening. No casualties were reported, but some damage was caused.
In response to the escalated threat the Jerusalem Municipality has opened all of its public bomb shelters and urged residents to take the necessary precautions.
The video was initially shared by the pro-Hamas Quds News Network, which lauded the attack on "occupied Jerusalem".
Hamas and other Islamist groups are known to have a strong presence on the Temple Mount.

It's that time again! Negotiations for a new, multi-year contract between the Realty Advisory Board (RAB), an industry association representing most building owners in New York City and 32BJ SEIU, the largest private sector union in New York is in progress.
The negotiations for a new multi-year contract covering more the 30,000 apartment building workers began on March 13th between 32BJ and the Realty Advisory Board (RAB), an industry association representing most building owners in New York City. Failure to reach an agreement could lead to a strike directly affecting more than one million New Yorkers living in over 3,300 apartment, condo and co-op buildings in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island.
More than 30,000 doormen and women, supers, resident managers, handypersons, concierges and porters working at apartment buildings throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island are affected.
Workers on the bargaining committee said getting a good contract was important for them and their families.
Talks focus on wages, healthcare, pensions and training. Major issues include fair wage increases to keep up with the rising cost of living, maintaining affordable family health care and ensuring adequate funds for training and retirement.
In the four years since the last contract, the consumer price index (CPI) in the New York City area has gone up by 10%.
Failure to reach an agreement by April 20th could lead to a strike directly affecting more than two million New Yorkers living in 3,300 apartment buildings across the city.
There is something called a "private handshake" whereby during the talks, if the two sides can't reach common ground, the union calls for a strike. Prior to that happening union reps reach out to buildings with an offer saying: "sign this private agreement, and your union employees will keep working - even during a strike. Once a settlement is reached, you'll be party to the new contract."
The RAB disagrees with this practice and says that a "direct agreement between the union and a specific building" undermines its negotiating position - which ultimately hurts the coops and condos on whose behalf it negotiates. An RAB spokesperson stated in an e-mail: "Just like the union, the RAB relies on the support of its members, so these side agreements ultimately hurt the negotiating process and can undercut the management negotiating committee and employer solidarity."
Union 32BJ which is the largest property service union in the country has more than 145,000 members including New York City.
If there is a strike your building will likely send out information about their plans. If you live in a small building run by an individual landlord, ask how they plan to handle the strike should it happen.

Somalia is a country located in Eastern Africa bordering the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden. The total area of the country is 637,657 km2, and it has a population of 10,085,638 as of July 2012. The country's climate is desert-like.
Since becoming an independent country, Somalia has had to continually face violent civil strife, political instability, lack of national governance, and huge IMF debt. The country's economy depends on the agriculture sector more than any other sectors. The GDP of the country was $5.896 billion in 2010.
The exploited natural resource of Somalia is mainly uranium. However, there are many unexploited reserves of bauxite, copper, iron ore, tin, gypsum, salt, natural gas, and probable oil reserves. The country's mineral sector is largely underdeveloped and only makes a small contribution towards exports and economy in general.
In recent years, Somalia has produced small quantities of gemstones, niobium (columbium), salt, sandstone, granite, marble, and tantalum. The country also has deposits of feldspar, kaolin, limestone, quartz, and silica sand. Granite, marble, and sandstone are mostly produced by private companies, while gemstones and salt mining is performed by artisanal miners in small scale.

In 2010, Range Resources Ltd. of Australia and Africa Oil Ltd. of Canada explored the Dharoor Valley and the Nugaal Valley onshore blocks in Puntland in search of crude petroleum. On completion of the exploration work, the two companies will undertake drilling work.
Somalia has a long way to go before being able to rely on its mineral sector for revenue as the collapse of the central government has caused ambiguity over mineral rights and hesitation among foreign investors.
Experts feel that only the oil and gas sector of Somalia is likely to see some progress in the coming years. However, the framing of regulatory policies, the negotiation process and finally striking a contract or agreement are all conducted in a random manner.
The government has to update itself with international mining regulations, seek advice from authorized organizations and work towards providing a secure environment for investors.

Defending world champion and championship leader Sebastian Vettel said he was satisfied with qualifying third on Saturday for Sunday's Spanish Grand Prix.
The world championship leading German, in his Red Bull, was unable to keep pace with the two Mercedes driven by pole sitter Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton.
He said: "I am quite happy to be honest. Yesterday and this morning I was really happy, and I think we improved the car so I think we are in good shape."
Only once has a driver who failed to qualifying on the front row won the race.
Vettel added: "We took a different approach to the majority of people, using option tyres only. Whether that helps us tomorrow we have to wait and see.
"It will be a long race, it will be about tyre degradation. Now, with the conditions helping a little, it is a tough challenge, the tyres don't last as long as we would like."
Although Mercedes drivers Rosberg and Hamilton voiced pessimism about their race chances, Vettel said he did not believe the 'silver arrows' will be easy to beat or that Lotus and Ferrari are out of contention.
"Mercedes are in front of us right now, and to be honest they had some long runs and didn't look too bad," said Vettel.
"On the long runs yesterday both Ferrari and Lotus were pretty competitive, so we can expect them to be very strong in the race as well. It is going to be tough."
Rosberg says he is concerned about tyre degradation after falling from pole to ninth place in Bahrain last time out.
"It has just been working really well all weekend, we've optimised everything," he said.
"But after what we saw in Bahrain it is nice, but we cannot be over confident when we're thinking about the race result. We're surprised to be that quick, but it was a good qualifying and a good lap in the end, so I'm really, really happy with that.
"It's a good boost for the team, the front row is fantastic but of course we have to be a bit cautious after Bahrain."
Rosberg is confident that his team has made progress in terms of its tyre management, but is unsure if it will be enough to challenge for victory.
"The team has been working really hard to be even better, understanding how to get the most out of these tyres," he said. "We were a bit behind in Bahrain, and we come here and there are issues again.
Hamilton seemed surprised to be on the front row after losing his way on car set-up for the race.
"I haven't had the best of weekends up until now," said Hamilton. "This is still great for us today to be one-two on the grid, but I have been struggling all weekend. The long runs were pretty poor, but on one-lap pace the car doesn't seem to be too bad.
Rosberg warned that maintaining Mercedes' pace over a race distance would be tough, and Hamilton agreed that victory did not seem realistic. "We will do the best job we can from the start, but more of a concern is looking after the tyres," he said.
"I love that we are going to try and get into Turn 1 first, that will be really good for the team. We have to improve our race pace. We have very good qualifying pace. I hope in the future we will get that win."
He also denied being disappointed at being overshadowed by his team-mate for the second qualifying session in a row.
"Sometimes you get beaten, sometimes you go ahead - that is the name of the game," Hamilton said. "At the end of the day he is quicker today and I just have to work harder - simple."

The number of women in prison is increasing exponentially, with no plan to improve or encourage conditions that would benefit society or the women imprisoned. Orange is the New Black, the popular Netflix series, has brought public awareness to the subject recently. Ella Baker Center asks the question "Women in prison who leave children and families that need their care, and return with less ability to meet the conditions they face after prison-is this the best we can do for women?" Ella Baker for their work in prison reform through Books not Bars has recently been awarded Google's Bay Area Impact Challenge, with Executive Director Zachary Norris being granted a Prime Movers Fellowship. Reform in prison, however, needs a revision by all of society to evaluate the cost of the facilities and the cost of the loss of the people as well as efforts made to support their return to lives. The families have little or no support throughout their incarceration, or upon their return, and the women have less confidence to manage the difficulties they will face in restarting their lives. What can be done, what must be done is the question by those of us who support and contribute to the work of Ella Baker in Oakland?
Prison reform history brings up the name of Miriam Van Waters, and represents a direction that bears the possibility of a new vision as recognized by Stanford professor, Estelle Freedman. Consider that prison reform has been the fundamental call to action for feminists since 1848 when two women, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott and their husbands, Quakers, who started a movement to change the conditions and circumstances under which people were imprisoned. That is considered to be the first wave of feminism by Estelle Freedman who describes the feminism of that time to be "religiously motivated white middle class women in the late 19th Century" Their vision was to provide for prisoners the possibility of redemption, maternal rather than punitive, nurturing rather than destructive to the prisoners. Men and women together in abusive and squalor were the conditions they witnessed, and their intention was not only to improve those conditions but to provide the means by which these people could be redeemed and returned to society. What they got was segregation of women who were taken out of the prisons and placed in a separate facility, a limited piece of what they had envisioned. Dr. Freedman in her book Feminism, Sexuality and Politics describes the origins and strategies of women's activism ranging from prison reform through the waves of feminism from 1848 to present. The goal for feminism has always been, she claims in the historical context of social change to not only empower women but to transform all American culture. Based on the "idealism of the 60's, the feminist politics of the 70's that infiltrated and shook the ground in academia and social life, the basis for the 2nd wave of feminism was established." But then she discovered the work of Miriam Van Waters, a very powerful visionary and prison director.
Miriam Van Waters brought groundwork to significant reform and accomplished a great deal in her role in the Massachusetts State Reform for women's prisons in the 1940's. Van Waters sought redemptive and educational rather than punitive measures and her work as Director of the women's prisons became known nationally for taking "involuntary confinement to a place of voluntary community" within the prisons. Framingham Prison had nurseries for the children, gardening, art and skill trainings for the women and an atmosphere of growth and nurturing. Dr. Freedman reports that students from Vassar, Smith, Wellesley sought to intern at these prisons which was considered the hallmark of social welfare advance.
What happened to those efforts by feminists, by people in society who wanted to see the transformation that had been aspired to is a question for social researchers and feminists like Estelle Freedman, and is the question of our time that must be answered. Just a few come to mind. Internships and volunteering at prisons for both men and women could be of benefit not only to the prisoners but to students in and just out of college who get credits on their college loans would be a possibility. Universities and colleges could bring into their curriculum structured participation in the prisons for credits. A buddy system for the women in prison, additional family support through the churches who look for places of need and want is another possibility.
There are many possibilities, but we know for sure that the Ella Baker Center and their committed following have their eye on the prize of valuing the lives of those in prison. They have bills they are presenting this week in Sacramento to the state legislation to advance the conditions in prisons, and potential for change. For all who see the problem, there are many places to go to offer your care, your participation and inspiration to prison reform, and Books Not Bars has that information.

Gary Sinise, actor, humanitarian and founder of the Gary Sinise Foundation, will wave the green flag as the honorary starter for the 56th annual Daytona 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Daytona International Speedway on Feb. 23, track officials announced Monday.
"Gary Sinise is not only a respected and accomplished actor, but a compassionate advocate for our servicemen and women and does a tremendous amount of work for the American troops," Daytona International Speedway President Joie Chitwood III said. "We are excited to have him kick off 'The Great American Race' by waving the green flag for the Daytona 500."
"It's an honor to be selected as Honorary Starter at this year's Daytona 500 on behalf of the Gary Sinise Foundation. The race is a celebrated tradition and an important occasion to raise awareness and support for the men and women who serve our country", said Sinise.
The Daytona 500 will also feature reigning Academy of Country Music Entertainer of the Year Luke Bryan, who will entertain the crowd during the DAYTONA 500 Budweiser Pre-Race Show.
"We're thrilled to have a talented artist such as Luke Bryan perform prior to the start of the Daytona 500," Chitwood said in a news release. "We're expecting Luke to put on an exhilarating show that will energize our race fans as we kick off the new NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season."
The U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, known worldwide for their precision aerobatics, will return to Daytona International Speedway to perform the flyover for the 56th annual DAYTONA 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season opener, the track announced.
This will make the fourth consecutive year the flying team, officially known as the U.S. Air Force Air Demonstration Squadron, will perform the flyover for "The Great American Race." For the 2013 DAYTONA 500, the Thunderbirds were unable to fly their signature "Delta" formation flyover due to cloud ceilings below mandatory minimums.

Added a product review for Morewood Bicycles Kalula Frame 8/22/2010 10:04 PM
The Good: Suspension design, cornering, weight, finish
The Bad: nada, n/a, nothing
Overall: The suspension designs of Morewood are seriously sweet. I got a bit of time on a Makulu prior to the arrival of my Kalula (see review here: [url]http://www.vitalmtb.com/product/guide/Frames,7/Morewood-Bicycles/Makulu,1734[/url]) and was hoping the rear end of the Kalula would feel as incredible as the Mak...it does. The low leverage ratio makes the rear feel different than many other bikes...they feel super squishy in the parking lot, but you quickly realize on the trail that there is no mushy feeling and basically no pedal bob. The rear of the Kalula is very active feeling. I had to order a softer spring (250) as it came with a 300, which is wild as I'm nearly 200# geared up. The Kalula is super agile and corners like a champ. I've actually never enjoyed the way a bike cornered more that this rig...it makes me smile constantly. The Kalula is definitely the little brother to the Makulu and suits my riding style better...more jibby/jumpy and non-racer. It can still hang on full dh tracks, but if you want a race sled, the Makulu is your bike. If you want a bike that can rip the dh track and still kill in the park, the Kalula is the call. Clearly this rig jumps well. And, it's so light and easy to move around, it feels a bit like cheating. I haven't had a chance to weigh this thing yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if it came in somewhere arond 36# without any attempt at chosing weight-saving parts. Overall I couldn't be more stoked...unless I had enough loot sitting around to own a Makulu too. Cheers to Lance and the rest of the doods at Morewood for creating some rad products!

Added a product review for Morewood Bicycles Makulu Frame 7/21/2010 9:24 AM
The Good: Suspension, Stability, Cornering, Speed
The Bad: Nothing...n/a
Overall: Let me begin by stating that I have ridden/owned alot of bikes, always searching for the next best thing...the Makulu is it. The suspension is incredible. The super low leverage allows the rear to feel unlike anything else I've ridden. Although this is a full-on dh race sled with about 40% sag, it doesn't feel mushy as many bikes often do, but at the same time it eats up terrain with ease. My riding style tends to be more jibby and slopestyle-esque, so I generally to do not like dh rigs that feel like plows or monster trucks. While the Makulu has no problem running over anything in your path, it is also nimble enough to allow quick line changes and great manueverability. The bike accelerates incredibly quickly and holds a line with ease. It constantly begs to go faster. The rear is quite stiff, which only adds to the bike's ability to slay corners and retain amazing rear-end traction. I'd also like to echo the previous poster's sentiments about the way the Makulu pedals...it is better than anything I've ever been on. No pedal bob, at all. This is one of the first things I noticed in the lot on the way to the lift. The Makulu jumps well to boot. After some runs on the dh track, we popped over to a few more jumpy trails and I was stoked at the ease of getting the bike off the ground. This leads back to the greatness of the suspension...it seems to adjust to your needs without you having to ride differently for different types of terrain. All in all, the Makulu is amazing. That said, I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of my Kalula early next week! Cheers to the guys at Morewood for putting out some amazing products and continuing to improve bike design!

"________!" The usually silent and sleepy nation raised his voice in anger beyond your imagination. You sat with your head hung, letting the words sink in. "I cannot begin to imagine what was going through your head when you went and did that! But either way, it happened...What the hell were you thinking!?"
"I thought you just-"
You squeaked the partial sentence out a bit but quickly got cut off by Greece once more. "I don't care...you know what, I just don't care. That man...you wouldn't ever understand _________. He's so...I hate him so much! I don't want you talking to that snake-in-the-grass Turkey again!"
"Now wait a minute!" You finally managed to raise your voice. "I don't care what you think about him, he's a really nice guy! And you know what, I like him! I don't give half a crap what you-"
"I want you to listen now." Greece said, shrinking you back down to size. "I don't want you to say his name in this house as long as you're in it. Alright!?"
You nodded, unable to say anything else as you heard Greece sigh. "What am I going to do with you..." Was all he said before leaving you alone in your room, even shutting the lights off behind him while doing so.
The only reaction you had was placing your head on your knees and crying out silently in the dark. This was the first time you've ever been scolded by Greece. This was apparently even worse than when you lost his favorite cat since even then, he didn't snap.
Playing with the red tulip which had been destroyed when Greece snatched you away, a petal fell off and fell delicately to the floor. 'Why did you have to ruin everything Greece...?'
Turkey sighed, laying himself out in his own bed. The only thing he was thinking of was your torn and tear-stained face as you were pulled away painfully by the wrist.
He wondered how you were handling everything right now. Greece wasn't really one to raise his temper much, but when it came to him, he knew that things might get pretty tough for you.
Removing the mask from his face and placing it beside him, he looked up at the ceiling and trying to keep you out of his mind, but it obviously failed miserably. The only thing he could think of was your (h/l)(h/c) hair when it was blowing through the breeze and your peaceful face which was simply being soaked by sunlight which made your (e/c) eyes shimmer.
He sat up a bit, trying to remove the image from his mind before deciding,"I need a drink..."
The next morning, you woke up in the same cloths you were in yesterday and your eyes were still a bit red from crying last night. You yawned as you wiped the tired tears from your eyes.
The door opened slightly,"_-________...?" Greece's voice echoed silently through your silent room. "Are you awake...?"
"Y-yea..." You mumbled as he came into view at your doorway.
"Look...________ about last night..." He said, taking a seat beside you on your bed. "I'm sorry...it's just...I hate him...and seeing you with him..."
"I understand..." You said, wanting to cry again. "Do you need me to go out? Do you need anything?"
"No. I want you to stay here." He sighed, standing up once more,"I know you're sorry about what you did, but it doesn't change anything. I'm confining you to your room."
You knew there wasn't anything you could say or do to go against him, so you crossed your arms and nodded. As soon as he left, you took the change and decided the risk it all. Turning to the window in your room, you threw open the blinds and unhatched the lock as silently as you could.
Sliding the window open, the warm morning air hit your face and brushed past. Slipping out, you shut the blinds before shutting the window behind and sighed. Something was telling you to stay. Maybe it was the fear of having Greece drag you back by the hair this time. But you couldn't worry.
You have had enough of being ordered around by Greece. 'So he doesn't like Turkey now...does he?' You thought to yourself. 'Well, he's about to gain a new enemy.'
After a long day of tirelessly traveling, you were almost sure you had made it to the right home. Walking up to the doorway, the weight of the entire day started collecting on your shoulders.
Standing for a few moments, you thought about just turning around and leaving. Maybe Greece wouldn't be too upset if you brought back something for him...or better yet, his cats.
Though, it was probably too late now. So at that point, you balled your hands up and knocked on the door.
Hearing the knocking at his door, Turkey sat himself up a bit.
"Is someone there sir?" A young nation known as Northern Cyprus entered the room, rubbing his tired and weary brown eyes. His voice was void of emotions as usual.
Turkey sighed,"Go back to sleep. I'll deal with whoever it is."
The small child obeyed him without question as Turkey lifted himself off the couch, expecting something completely different than what he would open the door up to.
He shut his eyes and threw open the door,"Listen, whoever you are I-" He opened his eyes slightly to see you standing there, looking awfully weary. As you go to say something, you collapsed. Luckily enough, Turkey caught you before you even hit the ground. "What the hell are you doing here...?" He asked out loud.
He couldn't deny you obviously. So instead, he took you inside and laid you own on the couch as the sound of small feet rebounded through the room as Northern Cyprus entered once more. "Who is that?"
Turkey sighed once more. "Just go to bed...I'll explain in the morning."
But rather than obeying Turkey as he usually would, he walked up beside him and peered at your face. "She's really pretty." He said, brushing some strands of (h/l)(h/c) hair from your (s/c) face with much care. He looked curiously at his idol. "Do you like her?"
Turkey took the small childish nation into his arms,"I said bed..." He said quite firmly to the young nation before setting him on the ground, ruffling his dark brown hair and urging him towards the direction of his room. With that, he scurried off towards his bedroom.
Turkey sat beside you for a moment, thinking about what you were probably doing here and his first thought shot towards Greece. 'He obviously had something to do with this.' He thought, trying not to get worked up.
You turned slightly, your hand landing onto his slightly. Turkey stood up and exited the room quickly, coming back with a silk blanket in hand, dyed red. Placing it over your torso, he kissed your forehead and turned the lights off behind you, leaving you to sleep peacefully through the night.
Waking up the next morning, you found yourself to be inside under the most elegant silk blanket over your torso. You scanned it and played with the fabric with much care.
"Excuse me ma'am." A sudden, monotonic voice made you jump in your spot. Turning your head slightly, you see a young boy standing beside you. He had curious amber eyes and dark brown hair with olive skin much like Turkey's. He wore pajamas, making him look sweet and adorable, but he held no expression,"Who are you?"
A bit dumbfounded, you smiled to glaze things over,"M-my name is _________...and who might you be?"
"My name is The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus...but you can just call me Northern Cyprus for short." You went to speak, but he cut you short,"Turkey is the only nation to recognize me as a nation myself. And you better not do anything to him or I'll never forgive you."
"U-um..." You smiled a bit more gently,"I-I promise I won't do anything to-"
"Please Cyprus...leave her alone...it's too early..." Looking over, you noticed a drowsy Turkish man made his way out of his room and up to the two of you. His face was covered once more.
Northern Cyprus pouted before leaving,"She'd better not do anything bad to you..."
You smiled a bit sheepishly but it quickly vanished. "I...I guess I have a lot of explaining....and I'm probably in big trouble...aren't I?"
He sat you up a bit, pulling your body closer to his,"Not at all!" He said rather enthusiastically,"I just want to know why you were passing out at my doorstep and midnight."
"O-oh...well..." Your eyes watered up slightly,"G-Greece...he got really mad at me...and punished me by keeping me in my room a-and he told me never talk to you again...!"
He held you closer now. "Hey...look. Why don't you come stay with me? Live here with me."
"B-but Greece...!?"
"Forget that scumbag." He said simply with a grin on his face. "Stay here with me...Please?"
You smiled slightly, giggling a bit and leaning your head on his shoulder. "Fine. I'll stay, I'll stay."
"Great!" He said with an energetic tone before kissing your lips in a swift and passionate second before standing himself up,"And the first thing we're doing is calling up Greece and rubbing his nose in it!"

Think you can do better than half the performers on The Voice last week? You're probably right! Luckily for you, auditions for season two are open. You can haul yourself to one of the open casting calls somewhere (no dates are announced, but they'll be next month), or you can save yourself gas money and potential humiliation and just do it online, like everything is these days.
But there's a catch. See, NBC's site has this slightly creepy video where Carson Daly explains the "online audition tool." (Go on, make your Carson Daly/tool jokes. We'll wait.) You get to choose from ten songs, which for some reason include Nelly, record yourself on them, and then subject your recording to the approval or disdain of an algorithmic grader that rates pitch and tone. Pitch and tone as compared to what? Well, one hopes it's the original song, although this is vague. And what about tempo? Variations in mic quality? Ad-libbing? Singerly art?
As you might surmise, you should not trust these "online audition tools" too much, as anyone who's seen a horrible American Idol audition where the guy goes "But I watched the [Idol-branded vocal training] DVD!" knows. At best, they reward really good mic setups and soundproofing; at worst, they reward nothing in particular.
But Daly says that the casting staff will put at least some stock into this thing when choosing potential contestants, so we decided to have a little fun with it. After all, one would hope The Voice would use a tool (har har) that works. Our highly unscientific method: We went trawling on YouTube for a cappella, or close, tracks of the original performers of the song. We found four. Then went to a nice quiet corner of the Popdust office, let them play at the same place the preview pointed out, started recording and went to town! Like we said, unscientific, and a recording of a recording isn't exactly what The Voice had in mind, but Marvin Gaye wasn't available to record it in person.
The Voice says a score of 8 or higher is good enough to start dreaming of NBC stardom. So will any of these four qualify? Let's see:
MARVIN GAYE, "Ain't No Mountain High Enough": 3.6
METRO STATION, "Shake It": 4.82
NELLY, "Just A Dream": 4.92
TEMPTATIONS, "My Girl": 5.15
So yes: according to this algorithm, neither Gaye nor Nelly nor any of the Metro Station or Temptations guys would've even made it to the blind auditions. Aww. That might be the harshest thing to come out of The Voice yet!
We highly encourage you to try to replicate these results. Maybe you can come up with a better setup that actually puts these guys over the line! Or maybe you just shouldn't put too much stock in algorithms to judge art forms like singing.
