Most people who spend 35 years with the same company start thinking about retirement, but don't tell that to Bill Perin. At age 60, after spending three and a half decades as an Operations Director at Macy's, based in Northern California, Perin decided he wasn't ready to "quit" (his terminology), but instead chose to open his own business. After all, he wanted to find something local that he could call his own. So, opening a Batteries Plus store in San Rafael, CA in 2007 seemed to fit Bill's bill, and six years later, he's considering opening another one.
"Opening a Batteries Plus fit with my previous experiences in retail, along with my training as a Navy Aviation Electrician Mate in the 60s."
Located in a well-to-do area, with many customers with a propensity for the finer things in life, Perin loves being a local resource for high quality, hard-to-find products. He also enjoys helping his customers maintain their valued possessions with new, working batteries, and he anticipates changing about 10,000 watch batteries this year alone!
"We always have new and fun gadgets, flashlights and the latest in light bulbs. Plus, we can help fix a lot of people's devices, too." He continues by saying, "and it only gets better, thanks to the terrific support we get from the corporate product support group – they continue to improve our weekly inventory replenishment process and are constantly refining our product mix."
Perin is also the Secretary at the local Rotary Club of Mission San Rafael, which supports the mission to stamp-out Polio worldwide, and he also donates to many local and regional charity events every year. Furthermore, his commitment to customer service is exemplary, as can be seen by this example:
"One of our good local commercial customers called us to help him replace six large 8D batteries in a fishing boat down in Half Moon Bay, about 80 miles from our store. He had a deadline to have the boat operating for the weekend. We went to our local distributor to pick-up the batteries, went on to Half Moon Bay and helped with the installation. He made his deadline, no problem."
Perin enjoys working alongside people he trusts. His workforce consists of two employees who have been with him since day-one: Chuck Cole and Justin Andersen; as well as his son, Marshall and wife, Gwen. He has also recently partnered with some of his best friends to pursue opening a new store in the very near future. Stay tuned for more, because it doesn't sound like Bill Perin is slowing down any time too soon!
In-depth Product Knowledge – In order to best serve our customers, and give them the best opportunity to get what they need at our store, it's vital that my staff be trained and educated on all of our products and their appropriate applications.
Great Customer Service – There is no substitute for giving our customers the best possible experience every time they walk through our doors.

This Is The Exact Moment An Oil and Tobacco Funded Think Tank Imported Climate Denial To Britain...
Brendan Montague | January 24, 2015
By Brendan Montague • Saturday, January 24, 2015 - 00:01
The DeSmog UK epic history series investigates how Thatcherite John Blundell challenged the young Roger Bate to set up an Environment Unit within free-market think tank the Institute of Economic Affairs.
Future historians interested in establishing how Britain became a chief cheerleader of scepticism only 30 years after Thatcher led the world on climate change science and policy will have to begin on the morning of 1 January 1993.
It all began at the offices of the free-market think tank the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) in Lord North Street (pictured). Here, historians will discover that it was John Blundell, a diehard Thatcherite and the IEA's new director general, who undid this part of Thatcher's legacy.
Almost as soon as he arrived in Westminster to head up the IEA, Blundell called the young, erudite Roger Bate into his new office and "challenged" him to establish a new Environment Unit within the institute.

Edit 2/1/08 : Took out the hill scene and added some pushing around :B
So after some thought, I decided to redo my part of sec 10 of the sonic tribute collab 2. Is it better? I wanted a little more "action" while also giving fans of the comic a grin! ^_^ (I love Scourge, aka Evil Sonic! <3)

XD he just puts his sunnies on!
put down the shades! x chants x shades!
Yay!! More Scourge!! I like how he puts down his shades...stuff just got serious.
interesting! rubs chin.
This will be very interesting when Sonic and Scourge challenging each other to see who's the best.
I always wanted to see that!
Over the clouds and under the sky
I always wanted to see that!
Over the clouds and under the sky
yeah too bad this is all there is heh it was just a transition animation
Your animations look awfully familiar especially your name, I've been see things from New Grounds to Youtube. Are you the one working with Sonic Shorts?
Yes I draw for the Sonic Shorts on Newgrounds . I have a Newgrounds account by the name Comick, and my youtube name is c0mick,...the only reason I have the name Comickpro on Deviantart is becasue someone already got the name Comick before me :T
Cute. ^-^
Scourge is way cooler than sonic
Cool! Sonic and the green faker, Scourge. That scourge! LOL
I've never really read the comics but I think he's pretty cool
They look like two guys fighting over the same girl.
nah, there are just fighting over who's more cool XD
Awesome!!! Love how Scourge came out!!!
cool! I also wanted to see scourge in real action for once and my wish has come true! thanks
Thanks, even if its short I might try and animate something longer with him some time...if I ever get some free time lol.
I think scourge is cool
nice i love the emotion you gave sonic at the end looks like those two are ready to tear each other apart nice Animation i myself am doing something with these two also i am planning on making a cartoon on Scourge he really is a cool and evil dude he inspired me to do a anti evil vision of Jowy Dark Jowy check him out if you want to nice work again.
Thanks! If this piece ever sees the light in the finished collab it was make for, it will have some cool music and transition scenes to complete it...but that might be a while. And yes, I've seen Dark Jowy in your gallery ^_^ I'm drawn to his demeanor and I like his evil grin too. I look forward to seeing more of him (and Scourge too). Thanks for the comment by the way!
scourge is amazing...great animation!!
who is Scourge?
First time I seen Scourge in animation O.0 SEGA denied archie a cartoon...But this sorta makes up for it XD This is awesome, btw.
lol no problem! I thought he deserves some animation even though he has a very small fanbase, I like his character a lot
Ha. I love Scourge too. He did good in his choice of shades
nice comic shout out!

The Cartographer of No Man's Land: A Novel
384 pages; Liveright
Available at: Amazon.com | Barnes & Noble | iBooks | IndieBound
At the start of World War I, quiet, artistic Angus MacGrath is a cartographer in a sleepy coastal town in Nova Scotia. Soon, however, his closest friend and brother-in-law Ebbin enlists in the Canadian army and goes missing in France. Angus's wife, Hettie, is devastated; she and Ebbin were "like twins" growing up. Partly to console her, partly to do his duty and partly to try to uncover the truth of Ebbin's disappearance, Angus joins up himself, and soon finds himself slogging through the world's most dangerous trenches. Debut author P.S. Duffy captures the brutal intensity of the war in his delicate, atmospheric prose (star shells light the sky "with a cascading trail of sparks"), but it's the parallel story of how Hettie and Angus's 14-year-old son survive in his absence—while protecting an innocent German school teacher—that keeps you riveted. Be it at home in the village or deep in a battle, "Life isn't without much risk," Angus comes to realize, as does his family. But it's our response to those risks that draws the map of our character.

TU‐A‐BRA‐01: EPID, MVCT34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2761303View Description Hide Description
The Mega‐Voltage Cone‐Beam CT (MVCBCT) system provides a 3D image of the patient anatomy in the actual treatment position that can be tightly aligned to the planning CT, allowing daily verification and correction of the patient position moments before the dose delivery. Integrated onto a linear accelerator, the system consists of a new a‐Si flat panel adapted for MV imaging and a workflow application allowing the automatic acquisition of projection images at low dose rate, CBCTimage reconstruction,CT to CBCTimage registration and couch position adjustment. MVCBCT provides accurate electron density and allows studies of dosimetrical impact of setup error, anatomical changes or in presence of implanted metallic objects.
This lecture will provide an overview of the physics characteristics of MV and MV CBCTimaging, acquisition and reconstruction,image registration, alignment precision and quality assurance procedures. A description of the workflow and a survey of the clinical applications, indications and protocols will be presented. Finally, current challenges and future developments will be addressed.
Educational objectives
1. Understand the basics of MV Cone‐Beam CTimaging.
2. Understand the possibilities of daily 3D Imaging for patient alignment and other applications.
3. Understand the clinical roles of Image‐Guided(IGRT) and Dose‐ Guided (DGRT) Radiation Therapy.

- CE‐Therapy: Functional/Molecular Imaging: MRI for Planning/Assessment
WE‐B‐BRA‐01: Advanced MRI Techniques: Current and Future Applications in Radiation Therapy34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2761482View Description Hide Description
Newer radiation therapy (RT) modalities and devices are able to deliver radiation more precisely and accurately to irregular three‐dimensional target volumes and have generated renewed interest in optimized targeting and dosing with the goal to increase radiation effectiveness while reducing side effects. These RT approaches offer great potential in redefining the value of RT in certain disease sites. However, the more conformal and precise the RT delivery the more important becomes the definition of target volumes, placing a premium on definition of the tumor's spatial location, its extent, heterogeneity and possible spread in order to direct more or less dose to appropriate areas while sparing as much normal tissue as possible. CT and MRI have provided the morphological information used for target definition and treatment planning for several decades. They describe the anatomic relationship of the tumor and surrounding structures well but fail to provide biologic information. In addition, they have oftentimes proven nonspecific in assessing treatment related changes.
Recently introduced advanced MR‐based techniques have shown promise as a means of providing information on the tumor's biological characteristics. Three‐dimensional Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Imaging(MRSI) provides information on cellular metabolism, energetics and hypoxia through its ability to distinguish signals from cellular metabolites allowing the detection of tumor suggestive metabolism relative to surrounding same organ tissues. Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) provides additional information on cellularity, cell membrane permeability, intra‐ and extracellular diffusion, and tissue architecture and integrity. Perfusion Weighted Imaging (PWI) provides insight into overall blood volume, tissue microvasculature and angiogenesis as well as vessel permeability. These imaging modalities complement each other greatly as they provide metabolic, physiologic and functional information relative to the underlying anatomy.
Two major disease sites have been studied at UCSF with respect to the potential and actual incorporation of advanced MRimaging into the treatment planning process for RT: prostate cancer and brain gliomas. Brain gliomas have traditionally proved difficult to image using standard means due to their literally "non‐visible" infiltrative behavior and heterogeneous composition. The extent and location of prostate cancer are similarly difficult to determine without the aid of particularly MRSI because although MRI has good sensitivity it has relatively low specificity.
The combination of these metabolic and physiologic modalities with standard anatomic MR modalities will enhance our current understanding of tumor biology, heterogeneity and extent and will provide guidance as to how to optimize current treatment approaches. In addition to assisting in image guidance for RT, these imaging tools show promise for assessing and predicting therapeutic response and to help distinguish treatment effect from tumor progression. The latter becomes even more important in light of the increasing use of combined radiation and chemotherapeutic or molecularly targeted treatment approaches.
Educational objectives are to become familiar with the application of advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) techniques to Radiation therapy of brain and prostate cancer patients. Specifically, to understand the current technology, molecular information attainable, and to become familiar with current and future clinical applications.
- CE‐Therapy: Functional/Molecular Imaging: PET for Planning/Assessment
TU‐B‐BRA‐01: CE: Functional/Molecular Imaging: PET for Planning/assessment34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2761316View Description Hide Description
Purpose:Positron Emission Tomography(PET)images show physiological and biological information through the in vivo distribution of radioactive, positron‐emitting agents. PETimaging shows focal and distributed regions of cancer and its metastases. Initial PET uses in oncology include diagnosis and staging, which are important for determining treatment decisions. Current PET uses now include target definition for radiation planning followed by PET‐based assessment of treatment. Hybrid PET‐CT devices are beginning to be used as radiation treatment simulators. Method and Materials: F‐18‐labled Fluoro‐deoxyglucose (F‐18 FDG) is the most commonly used PETimaging agent. FDG shows regions of active glucose metabolism, such as local cancer, metastases, non‐cancer inflammation, and normal glucose use. Non‐FDG PET agents can be more specific in cell targeting (binding), and can image different aspects of tumor biology, like hypoxia (FMISO, CuATSM) and cell proliferation (FLT) Results:PETimaging has coarse spatial resolution compared to CT and MR. PET's clinical use is valued because of its great sensitivity for cancer detection. Voxel intensity and image fidelity depend on equipment design, patient size, anatomic site, and imaging study parameters. PET‐CT units enable CT‐based attenuation corrections and inclusion of CTinformation in a registered PET‐CT dataset. The Standardized Uptake Value (SUV) is a normalized intensity measure for quantitative indication of disease, and can be used to identify disease or possibly for target delineation, with certain limitations. While FDG remains the most promising agent for tumor detection, other, biologically more specific agents (e.g., FMISO, CuATSM for hypoxia imaging or FLT for cell proliferationimaging) might be more appropriate for target delineation and treatment assessment. Conclusion: This course reviews PET‐CT hybrid scanning devices, uses of FDG and non‐FDG PET for oncologyimaging, and quantitative aspects for PET‐based radiation target definition and treatment assessment. Example images demonstrate the potential contributions and limitations of FDG and non‐ FDG PEToncologyimaging. This review course is intended for both imaging and radiationoncology physicists.
Educational Objectives
1. Describe FDG PETimaging and oncologic indications.
2. Review the uses and limitations of PETimages in radiation treatment.
3. Describe the SUV and other threshold parameters for target delineation.
4. Review non‐FDG PETimaging of tumor biology.
5. Discuss quantitative aspects of PETimaging for treatment assessment.

The clinical value of in vivo functional and physiological imaging (perfusion, diffusion, and diffusiontensorimaging (DTI)) for assessment of therapeutic responses has been demonstrated in recent years. In vivo functional and physiological imaging can provide early prediction for treatment outcomes and complications, compared to conventional clinical methods and anatomic imaging. The advantage of early assessment is to allow for re‐optimizing individual patients' treatment plans, including decisions of total dose, modifying risks of critical normal tissue, and optimizing use of concomitant therapies. Clinical applications of perfusion, diffusion and diffusiontensorimaging are increasing rapidly.
This lecture will provide an overview of physiological origins of perfusion, diffusion and diffusiontensorimaging, as well as clinical applications, typical imaging acquisition protocols, and image processing methods. The limitations of these techniques will also be discussed.
Learning Objectives:
1. Understand the physiological origins of perfusion, diffusion and diffusiontensorimaging;
2. Understand typical imaging acquisition protocols and basic image processing methods;
3. Understand clinical applications and limitations.

MO‐A‐BRA‐01: New NCRP Report: General Report Background and Formulation34(2007); http://dx.doi.org/10.1118/1.2761192View Description Hide Description
This Report was prepared through a joint effort of the AAPM Task Group 57 and the NCRP Scientific Committee 46‐13. It addresses the structural shielding design and evaluation for medical use of megavoltage x rays and gamma rays for radiotherapy and supersedes related material in NCRP Report No. 49, which was issued in 1976.
This first presentation will review the general formalisms used for primary and secondary barrier designs at energies below and above the 10MeV maximum energy that was considered by the old Report 49. While most of the formalisms and data can be found in the published literature, the goal of the report was to bring together in one work all the required methods for shielding modern radiotherapy accelerators. This overview will be followed on the second day by a review of the methods and equipment that are necessary to survey the final facility and then the equations and data presented will be used extensively in the third day's presentation to work a number of detailed example calculations.
Learning Objectives:
1. Understand the history and rationale behind this report,
2. Understand the appropriate use of the equations and data for calculating shielding for medical accelerators,
3. Understand the limitations of the proposed methods.

NCRP Report No. 151(December 2005), titled "Structural Shielding Design and Evaluation for Megavoltage X‐ and Gamma‐Ray Radiotherapy Facilities", presents updated methods and data for radiation therapy room shielding design. These calculation methods are applied in examples representing the more common shielding design situations. A radiation therapy vault with a maze barrier and intended for use with IMRT and TBI procedures is the principal example. Detailed calculations of the barriers and door shielding structures are presented. Procedures for evaluating compliance with the NRC licensing constraint on dose equivalent in‐any‐one‐hour are presented. An example of a high‐energy room where photoneutron production is of concern is presented with focus on assessing the dose equivalent at the entrance and the maze door design.
Objectives: Learn by worked examples (1) how to apply the methods and data presented in NCRP 151 for designing high energy therapy vault barriers; (2) how to determine prospectively if the barrier design is adequate to satisfy the public areas "2 mrem in‐any‐one‐hour" constraint when it is applicable.

How to Gain SEO Results from LinkedIn
First of all if you and your company do not have LinkedIn presences then you're missing a real treat, for professionals and businesses it is the social networking platform available on the internet today. Here are a few Tips to Boost Your Profile.
Want even more new business out of LinkedIn?
Ok, no problem, it's all yours and all it takes is commitment and dedicated time, once you accept LinkedIn as another marketing channel for your business, embrace it and the phones will be ringing and your order book will be bursting at the seams.
LinkedIn SEO Tips
So let's assume you're all fired up now to take on the business community via LinkedIn, great but just remember back to the early days of the internet when everyone (including Del Boy) thought they could build a quick 5 page website and be a millionaire by Christmas, what I am trying to say is just because it's there doesn't mean anyone will find it who doesn't already know you. Here's where our top SEO tips for LinkedIn come in, nothing fancy or technical all do-able in an afternoon.
Fully Complete your Profile – sounds obvious really but so many people don't or if they do it's not been given any thought, search engines crawl LinkedIn so optimise your profile for the key phrases you wish to be found for. If you've worked at related companies in the past then add these to your profile, again give the content some thought for search ranking benefits.
Still part of profile completion but worth a separate mention are specialities and website links as both of these are indexed by Google, think of them as keywords.
What even more SEO Benefit from LinkedIn?
Customise your url, providing it's not already taken you can edit the url of your public profile to contain either your personal name or company dependent on which profile your editing, an alternative would be to use a keyword rich LinkedIn url e.g. www.linkedIn/
Look for groups in your sector or consider starting one, start contributing as a way of building your profile and reputation within your sector. The SEO benefit here is about your name being associated to the group names which are often keyword rich.
Connect and network, look for ex colleagues and friends, all the people you meet during the course of going about your business, each time you quote for a job or have an enquiry ask the person to connect even if they don't do business with you today they may in the future or quite often one of their contacts will be in touch. If you're a frequenter of events and seem to collect a pocket full of business cards at the end of the day, why not message them through LinkedIn to thank them for talking to you and request they connect. Connecting to others will increase your exposure online and is a great way to build genuine backlinks to your business.
By taking one's time to complete a good solid personal and company profiles will reap benefits and visitor's levels to these profiles will increase, so be clear about who you are and what you do.
A final note about SEO benefits of LinkedIn harks back again to the early internet days, you have to keep updating your profile, add value though and don't treat it like your Facebook page, after all would you want a potential client to know what you did at the weekend. Use a dedicated Twitter account to automatically update your LinkedIn profile is an ideal way of pushing your product or services and can be a great way of driving visitors through to your site, just remember this is a B2B networking site so don't bombard your connections with spam offers and promotions every 15 minutes.

When the Child with Special Needs Goes Off to Summer Camp
Or "I hate this place. I want to come home. Send my iPod. Pat the dog."
Everything changes when a child leaves home and parents must design a whole new system of communicating with and caring for the absent child. If your child is away at camp, you doubtless understand this and are trying to adapt to this situation. Browse these tips from LD expert Rick Lavoie.
What's New
Summer Reading for Kids with Dyslexia
The summer months are important to your child's academic development in two ways. First, childrens need to be reminded of what they learned during the school year so that they remember it when they return in the fall. Second, and perhaps more important, children with dyslexia can discover the joys of reading and other academic skills in the relaxed summer season.
Tips for Choosing a Summer Camp for Your LD Child
Choosing the appropriate summer camp for your child can be challenging for parents. Learn from one mother's experience: unable to find the right summer program for her child with LD, Ann Cathcart started a camp herself to create exactly what she wanted for her son. Here are her tips on what to look for in a summer camp experience for your child with learning differences.
Cece Bell's Superpowers!
Meet Cece Bell, the award-winning author and illustrator of children's books including El Deafo, which won a Newbery Honor and the Geisel Award in 2015. In this funny, poignant graphic novel memoir, Bell chronicles her hearing loss at a young age and her subsequent experiences with the Phonic Ear, a very powerful — and very awkward — hearing aid.

Reinforcing Your Child's IEP Goals Over the Summer
If your child has an IEP, it may or may not cover summer. Some kids get extended school year services built into their IEPs, but many don't. If your child isn't attending a summer learning program, you may worry about how she'll keep up while school's out. But you can help reinforce her goals, even if she doesn't have school services in the summer. Here's how. Start by re-reading your child's IEP plan. (From our partner, Understood.org)

"Chongqing and the Yangzi River" Top 5 Page for this destination Chongqing by nepalgoods
Chongqing Travel Guide: 232 reviews and 776 photos
It was raining, when I was in Chongqing in spring 1991. So I got the impression, there is not much to see. But I must have missed the best, as I found out seeing the Chongqing-Pages on VT. Now, when I came back to Chongqing in September 2005, the weather was very nice. We even had an almost clear sky!
Anyway, Chongqing is the city, where you start a Yangzi-Cruise or from where you can go to Dazu with its famous Buddhist sculptures.
This time I had the opportunity to see some sightseeingspots in Chongqing.
I still think, that Chongqing is not very attractive. This Mega-City now has about 30 million people living in thousands of ugly highrise buildings. Main purpose for most people to visit Chongqing is the Yangzi River. From here the Yangzi River Cruises start. So this page is mainly about the Yangzi River Cruise, I did in 2005. A few pics are from the tour on the Yangzi River I did in 1991. What a different tour this was! 1991 on a ship for Chinese people, who just want to go from one city to the other. No sightseeing than. But in 2005: a cruise on a comfortable ship with fullboard and many tours to the mayer sightseeing spots around the river. Please see my tips for more.
From Chongqing it is not far to Dazu, specially since the new highway is build. As I did not find Dazu on the VT-Map, I am showing my Dazu-Tips on this page. In 1991 I visited the Buddha-Grottoes of Beishan. When I came back in 2005 I had the opprtunity to visit the sculptures of Baodingshan. For more informations see my tips.
- Pros:Clean, friendly, much to see in and around Chongqing
- Cons:Thousands of highrise-buildings for 30 million people
- In a nutshell:Nice and interesting city for a visit of 2 or 3 days

enjoyed yr pg thanks!my 'tourist' boat in 1997 turned out to be a Chinese boat stopping all the way along but also all the tourist sites.shared with a Taiwanese who thought he had 1st class & a Japanese who thought he had 3rd class!very interesting trip!
Interesting pages. We visited a couple of years ago...had a great time!!
not an area i know - so thanks for the experience
Lovely pages and tips. Juliana
Excellent info on Chongqing. I am researching a Yangtze cruise for Dec or January but it looks like its out of season
I can understand why you are a China addict. I'd love to see more of China someday. Thanks for visiting my Peru page a couple of weeks ago.
So there is a lot to see there after all! Now that you mention it, I've never been to a noodle factory.
Wonderful....My only visit to Chongqing was in 1987. I'm wondering if the old section of the city is still here on the side of the hill?
Ulrike, your Chongqing page is really good! Will check out more of your china pages later.
Outstanding pictures of Dazu Buddhist Grottoes - very mysterious and green place. Haha, some of the hidden pictures are better than those first ones.

Arts Busy Banksy
Banksy, the practical joker from the U.K. who got his start as a graffiti artist (see here and herethe latter is on the Palestinian side of the West Bank barrier wall) and went on to kill telephone boxes and hang his own work in the Tate and the Met, has turned his sights on Paris Hilton. He's smuggled hundreds of doctored copies of her new CD into storesallegedly with the help of Gnarls Barkleywith tracks like "Why Am I Famous?" (Which seems as good a question for an art star as an heiress.) You can buy a burnt copy on ebay. (Currently, they're going for $57.13.)

Why Not Interfere With Nature?

Advocates of an environmental ethic frequently claim that what makes an ethical theory truly and uniquely environmental is its commitment to the principle that environmental wholes such as species, ecosystems, and biotic communities are morally considerable. The prevailing view is that our primary duty towards these wholes is to respect their integrity, stability, and beauty, and that the best way to do this is to leave them alone, not interfere with them, and let nature follow its own course. But is that correct? Why should be refrain from interfering with nature?
There are two ways an environmentalist might try to justify an exceptionaless, prima facie principle of noninterference. First, she might claim that there is a contingent but universal connection between human interference and ecosystemic harm. There is also an epistemic variant of this view. When faced with a decision concerning whether to interfere with an ecosystem, there will always be overwhelming reasons for thinking that interference will be harmful, regardless of the specific circumstances. Send, there might be some conceptual connection between interference and harm to ecosystems. For example, if the well-being of an ecosystem is identified with its wildness, and wildness is understood as the absence of human intervention or manipulation, then any human interference necessarily detracts from an ecosystem's wildness and thereby has a detrimental effect on its well-being. In this paper I examine these justifications in detail and argue that none can support an exceptionaless principle of noninterference.

Barring a colossal failure on the part of the group seeking to change the way Ohio's legislative district lines are drawn, the people will have the chance in November to send a strong message to the politicians.
Voters First has submitted more than 430,000 signatures to the secretary of state's office to place a proposed constitutional amendment on the Nov. 6 general election ballot to create a citizens commission to draw Ohio's legislative and congressional district lines. Approximately 385,000 valid signatures of registered voters are required from counties throughout the state.
Leaving nothing to chance, the proponents of the amendment are continuing their petition drive to secure additional signatures in the event there aren't enough in the original batch.
Such attention to detail is necessary, given that the politicians who now control the congressional redistricting and legislative district reapportionment processes aren't eager to give up their power.
More to the point, Republicans who occupy all the statewide elected offices and control the General Assembly are responsible for the districts that will be in place for the next 10 years. That's because they won the 2010 election and, thus, were in charge of the redistricting and reapportionment based on the 2010 population census.
The GOP shut out the opposition Democrats and also ignored the appeals from 25 grassroots organizations to adopt a non-partisan, fair system.
That flexing of political muscle gave rise to Voters First's campaign to take the politicians out of the mix.
"The proposed amendment, which we anticipate will be on the November '12 ballot, will ensure every Ohio voter's right to fair, competitive districts," said Ann Henkener, redistrict specialist for the Ohio League of Women Voters. "We want to replace the current system, where the politicians draw their own lines. They … rigged the system."
Use of the word rigged is not an exaggeration, considering what the Republicans have done with the congressional districts. Because Ohio's population did not grow as much as other states, the number of districts was reduced from 18 to 16. The House and Senate, along with Gov. John Kasich, who signed the legislation, made sure that 12 of the 16 favored the GOP. That is why the 25 grass-roots organizations publicly criticized what had been done and refused to endorse the plan.
A map that was produced in a national contest sponsored by Ohio Campaign for Accountable Redistricting (it met all the federal and state legal requirements and gave Democrats and Republicans an equal chance of winning in a majority of the 16 districts) received little more than a glance from the Republicans.
The system is rigged to benefit the party in power. And given today's extreme partisanship, there is little willingness to play fair.
If the constitutional amendment makes it to the November general election ballot and Ohio voters approve it, the 12-member commission replacing the apportionment board and the congressional redistricting process would include four Republicans, four Democrats and four nonpartisan voters. Eight of the 12 would be required to sign off on any districts.
Of significance, lobbyists, politicians and large campaign contributors would not be allowed to serve on the commission.
"What we don't want is our district lines manipulated," said Catherine Turcer, speaking on behalf of Voters First. "What we do want are districts that are compact, [keeping] our communities together."
Republicans have stretched the bounds of politics in order to achieve the huge majority they will have in the congressional delegation after the November general election.
For that, they ought to be taught a lesson in civics — by the people of Ohio.
Am I missing the link to the on-line petition IF there is one? Or information on how to sign the petition if it is not on line?
So this commission will have four "non-partisan" members that will be appointed by whom? All either one of the sides needs to do is convince one of the non-partisans to vote with them and we have gridlock. Elections have consequences! Win the state seats and get the power. Nothing like another apponted commission to accomplish nothing.
""The GOP shut out the opposition Democrats and also ignored the appeals from 25 grassroots organizations to adopt a non-partisan, fair system.""
I think kasick tried this with sb5. It failed for him then too. If the gov, Obama, Boehner and all politicians would learn to work with others things would be much better for Ohio the U.S.
Ohio votes pretty much 50-50, but the GOP controls 75% of congressional seats through gerrymandering.
Either Nachochesse isn't aware of what's going on, or he's disingenuous with his doublespeak about who's doing the "stealing."
Nice try but Mass. Gov. Gerry died in 1814 and the modern Republican party was formed in 1854 as a party in direct opposition to slavery. 'Nuff said.

HIV and AIDS
The battle against HIV/AIDS and its devastating impact is the area of increasing concern to the UNESCO as a whole. UNESCO's focus on preventive education represents an important niche in the worldwide campaign to arrest and reverse this scourge.
HIV/AIDS is a social issue. It involves every human being. But young people and especially young girls are among the most affected by the HIV/AIDS pandemic.
From the beginning of the pandemic some powerful metaphors were built around the HIV/AIDS. These metaphors produced and spread by the mass media strength the stigmatization and discrimination. Moreover, they make some people have inexact ideas about the disease and deny that they are able to be infected by the virus or affected by the AIDS.
Good communication on HIV/AIDS can allow young people to revise the metaphors and stigmas and to develop new projects in order to prevent the virus. Therefore, awareness-raising campaigns supported by non-formal education and access to information sources are crucial for reducing the prevalence of HIV/AIDS among youth.
UNESCO has undertaken a number of activities with the aim to increase awareness of HIV/AIDS prevention among young people based on the new possibilities offered by ICT, such as online information, media campaigns and youth information centres. It continues to promote access to comprehensive and reliable youth-friendly information in quest of behavioural changes with the special emphasis on disadvantaged young people.

Do any of you know where I can find the take-off Performance tables for the 747-400? By take-off performance tables I mean those tables with the V1, Vr and V2 speeds at different take-off weights.
Now for the caveat, I found the tables as published by PMDG for their Flight Simulator addon. The problem is that I need them for my dissertation, so if I can get them from a more "official" source it would be better, hence this post.
Thanks in advance, I've looked around on the internet but to no avail, maybe I'll have more luck here.

Professor Layton franchise moves 11.47 million units worldwide
Level-5 has announced the Professor Layton series has moved 11.47 million units worldwide.
That's a lot of puzzles, and a well deserved mile marker in our opinion.
To get the public geared up for the 3DS launch of Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask, Level-5 will host a completion ceremony via a live webcast on February 24, two days ahead of the game's official Japanese launch.
The webcast will feature sessions with Level-5 CEO Akihiro Hino, the cast of the game, and an introduction to the new game.
The broadcast will be done through Ustream, and an official link to the webcast will be posted on the official site soon.
Thanks, Andriasang.
