1.2 Holocaust "myth" as Jewish extortion
[1.2/A]'I hate that word [Holocaust]. Its a word I don't like using. People say to me, "Mr. Irving do you believe in the Holocaust? Do you deny the Holocaust?" I say that I mistrust words with a capital letter. They look like a trademark, don't they? Like Tylenol or something. We don't trust them; no matter how much advertising they put into Tylenol. And so it is with that word "Holocaust". You get the impression that it is a neatly packaged, highly promoted operation, and you don't trust it.' [P's speech at the 11th IHR Conference, October 1992 - 'The Suppressed Eichmann and Goebbels Papers' (also published in the JHR for March/April 1993): K3, Tab. 13, p. 16]
[1.2/B]'And this [his thesis that Hitler knew nothing of the Holocaust] is why I've become something of an anathema, something of a bete noir, an enemy of the Jewish community of the world because I'm treading on hallowed ground. It's almost blasphemy. I'm taking a legend, which has been very carefully and sedulously created and cultivated over the 30 or 40 years since the end of the war ended at that time, and I'm shaking it and saying "Come on! Where's the proof. You said this all years. Where's the proof; where's the beef?" And they can't come up with it.'
[P interview with Errol Morris, 9 November 1998: K4, Tab. 9, p. 4]
[1.2/C]'Ladies and gentlemen, fifty thousand people were killed in Auschwitz, were killed in Auschwitz from 1942 to 1944. That is a crime, as I said. Fifty thousand innocent people. It's about as many people who died in Auschwitz in those three years as we British killed in Hamburg in one night. [Applause]
So, you see, if I use the German word relativieren, relativieren [relativise], this is what we can now do, we can now say, "Put an end to your lies about the Germans being the arch-criminals of all time who have committed crimes that are the biggest crimes of this millennium, let alone this century."'[P speech at Latvian Hall, Toronto, 8 November 1990: K3, Tab. 8, p. 21]
[1.2/D]'Well, they have been dining on Auschwitz. Auschwitz is a big tourist site now. They have millions of visitors every year. It's like Hitler's mountain top retreat in Berchtesgaden. They have half a million visitors a year there too. They make money out of it. Auschwitz has become a major money-spinner, the Holocaust. I mean, it sounds distasteful to say it, but its true. There's big money in Auschwitz, and for somebody to come along who has a reputation and a legitimacy as a historian and say "Hold it, fellahs. Make money if you want but you ought to know that it is a bit Disney-like." The only answer is to shut him up, don't let him anywhere near the place. He's the last person we want here. We are all on to a very nice thing.' [P interview with Errol Morris, 8 November 1998: K4, Tab. 9, pp. 33-34]
[1.2/E]'HOLOCAUSTOMANIA: n, obsession with burnt offerings; hence:} business acumen; greed. (Gr., 1994).'[P's Action Report, number 9, May 1995, p. 2: K4 Tab. 10, p. 46 (at 1)]
[1.2/F]'"One year from now the Holocaust will have been discredited. That prediction is lethal because of the vested interests involved in the Holocaust industry. As I said to the Jewish Chronicle, if a year from now the gas chamber legend collapses, what will that mean for Israel? Israel is drawing millions of dollars each year from the German taxpayer, provided by the German government as reparation for the gas chambers. It is also drawing millions from American taxpayers, who put up with it because of the way the Israelis or the Jews suffered. No one's going to like it when they find out that for 50 years they have been believing a legend based on baloney."' ['History's cache and carry', The Guardian, 7 July, 1992: K4, Tab. 10, p. 29]
[1.2/G]INTERVIEWER: When one reads your speeches, one had the impression that Churchill was paid by the Jews, that the Jews dragged Britain into the war, that many of the Communist regimes have been dominated by Jews subsequently, and that a great deal of control over the world is exercised by Jews.
IRVING: Right, these are four separate facts, to each of which I would be willing to put my signature. They are four separate and unrelated facts. When you string them together like that, you might be entitled then to say: "Question five, David Irving, are you therefore an antisemite?" This may well have been -
INTERVIEWER: No, this wasn't my question.
IRVING: But the answer is this, these are in fact four separate facts which happen to be true, in my considered opinion as a historian. And I think we can find the historical evidence for it. [P's interview for 'This Week', 28 November 1991: K3, Tab. 12, pp. 7-8]
[1.2/H]'I remind Fraser that he's on a BBC contract and will say nothing to jeopardize that; while I am as free as a bird, constrained only by the limits of my own courage. At the end, I say I find the Holocaust boring.
"But you write about it!"
"No I don't. I never have. The reason the others make so much of it is that they are making money out of it, billions in the last year or so, and it is the only interesting thing to have happened to them in three thousand years; they are using it as an adhesive to keep their splintering people together."
He found this tasteless: So it is; much that is true is just that.' [P's 'A Radical's Diary', Action Report, number 15, 20 July 1999, p. 10: K4, Tab. 10, p. 64]
[1.2/I]'We weren't told the truth about Robert Maxwell. Those of us who suspected the truth about Robert Maxwell, we were hounded. Maxwell was the propagator of the Holocaust myth in Britain. He held the great Holocaust Seminars, because he and his ilk survived and dined out on the Holocaust myth.
We are all Holocaust survivors, everyone of us who was born in 1939 or, or from then until 1945; but we don't go dining out on that particular legend. The ones who suffered in the Holocaust are the ones who died, not the ones who survived. But the Holocaust survivors are the ones who are earning of course.' [P's talk to the Clarendon Club, 19 September 1992: K4, Tab. 5, p. 8]
[1.2/J]IRVING: OK, let's move onto the Jews of Hungary. In the files of the Office of Strategic Services is a report which I found which is about 200 pages long describing how various Jewish underground organisations turned up in occupied Europe, in liberated Europe after the end of the war and screened all the inmates in the displaced persons camps and using the immense organising skills which the Jews are endowed, they shipped all the Jews they found in these camps using the funds of the United Nations Relief and Refugee Agency across Europe, in trucks, straight to the Middle East, where they were given new names, new existence and a new life.
QUESTIONER: If you're suggesting that half a million Jews.....
IRVING: I'll not say that...
QUESTIONER: survived the war and have continued to this day to exist in an almost conspiratorial pretence.....
IRVING: I'm suggesting to you alternative explanations to the gas chamber because obviously as the gas chamber now turns out to be phoney then we have to try and explain what happened to the figures. Now one possible reason is the large number of Jews that turned up in the State of Palestine which is now the State of Israel. The Jews in Israel didn't come from nowhere. Another part of them when Auschwitz was liberated were set out on the roads and shipped westwards where they ended up in cities like Dresden. I don't have to tell you what happened in Dresden three weeks after Auschwitz was evacuated by the Germans. One million refugees on the streets of Dresden at the time when we burnt Dresden to the ground killing anything between 100,000 - 250,000 of them. Large numbers of people on the streets in Europe that winter also suffered normal deaths of exposure and starvation and epidemics. I'm offering to you alternative solutions to where the people went.' [P's press conference for the FPP publication of the Leuchter Report, 23 June 1989: K3, Tab. 4, pp. 9-10]
[1.2/K]'As he [Michael Milken] went to prison little tears rolled down his cheek and he pleaded not to be sent to prison and his beautiful, coiffured wife was aghast that her husband should be maltreated in this way. Thousands of people have suffered because of Michael Milken. But none of the newspapers dare be too harsh on him because of course his people have suffered so much this century, haven't they? [Laughter]
And that's what it is all about. The big lie is designed not only to distract attention from even bigger crimes than what the Nazis did, the big lie is designed to justify, both in arrears and in advance, the bigger crimes in the financial world and elsewhere that are being committed by the survivors of the Holocaust.' [P's speech at the Bayerische Hof, Milton, Ontario, 5 October 1991: K3, Tab. 10, p. 21]
[1.2/L]'Many concentration camps as the Russians approached were evacuated and sent out on a long cold march through the European winter of December 1944/January 1945 to the West. The concentration camp inmates arrived in Berlin or in Leipzig or in Dresden just in time for the RAF bombers to set fire to their cities. In Dresden a million and a half people camping out in the street on the night of February, 13th 1945. Nobody knows who they were, refugees, concentration camp prisoners, citizens of Dresden itself, after the bombers retired, 40, 45 minutes later another wave came and then at noon on February, 14th the American airforce joined in. Over 130,000 people died in that particular air raid. The same kind of raids took place on Leipzig, Berlin, Cottbus, refugee centres up and down the centre of Germany. Nobody knows how many Jews died in those air raids. Nobody knows how many Jews died on the roads of hunger or starvation or just sheer cold.
Nobody knows then how many Jews survived World War II in the displaced persons camps. This is one of the most interesting aspects. It is possible to research it I suppose but to my knowledge, none of the Holocaust historians have done so. The national archives in Washington houses a report this thick of the Office of Strategic Services, the American Secret Service in which are investigated the activities of the Hagana, the Jewish Zionist underground organisation, in those very displaced-persons camps in the first month after World War II. The Hagana went from DP camp to camp, scouring them for all the Jews they could find who were still living in these camps, these wretched people, loading them onto trucks and shipping them then with the United Nations funds and resources all the way across Europe through the Middle East to Palestine. So Mr Goldman, who is found in a camp somewhere in Bavaria is put aboard a truck with his family and shipped across to the Middle East to Palestine where he is given a new life and a new identity, an Israeli identity, with a Hebrew name. Mr Goldman has vanished and the Hebrew gentleman in the Middle East then starts drawing compensation because Mr Goldman has vanished.
This is the irony which a lot of Germans are now beginning to worry about, and it has been going on for now for 50 years and you begin to suspect why the West German government for all these years has made it a criminal offence even to challenge and to question what has been going on. As the Chief Rabbi of Britain, Lord Jacobowitz, said it became "big business" and it did no credit to the Jews as a whole because I know thousands of Jews, my publisher was a Jew, my Lawyer's a Jew, they are all perfectly ordinary, decent respectable people when you know them and those who you speak to thoroughly abhor what has been going on. ['The Search for Truth in History -Banned!' 1993: K3, Tab. 15, pp. 26-27]
[1.2/M]'I'm, I'm unhappy with the way that the Holocaust legend is packaged, I think the capital "H" makes me suspicious from the start. When you give a word a capital "H" then it begins to look like some kind of brand name that's been very slickly packaged and marketed...' [P's interview for the Holmes Show, (New Zealand television), 4 June 1993: K3, Tab. 16, p. 1]
[1.2/N]INTERVIEWER: Are you aware that the Dutch Center for War Documentation has made a full report about this? [The authenticity of the Anne Frank diaries]
IRVING: Doesn't surprise me.
INTERVIEWER: And they say it's, they have made public all the diaries, and they examined the handwriting and all there is to know about it.
IRVING: Doesn't surprise me. A lot of money is at stake, The Anne Frank Foundation is a very wealthy, political organization in Amsterdam.
INTERVIEWER: Yes, well we're talking about the Dutch state's...
IRVING: Yes.
INTERVIEWER: ...War Documentation Center here. We're not talking about the Anne Frank Foundation. We're talking about a public institution.
IRVING: But I'm talking about the financial interests which are at stake here. [Videocassette 213, "Dateline", 1h 19m 40s - 1h 20m 25s.]
[1.2/O]'We've only got to go out there long enough and hammer on their doors collectively and say "Come on, show us the evidence. Evidence that is acceptable. Explain this and this and this" and eventually their whole rotten edifice will collapse and fall down. In fact, I would go so far as to suggest that either collectively or jointly, or perhaps better still anonymously, we recommend that Holocaust memorial buildings around the world are re-named the Auschwitz buildings. So that when that particular lie comes down they're going to have the indignity and humiliation of having to re-name them. [Laughter] [Unin] Eventually they will come down and eventually there's going to be a great rising outcry of indignation and this is what I regret most because let us be plain - certainly the Jews did suffer in World War II along with a lot of other minorities and ethnic groupings. There's no denying that they did suffer. I don't think they suffered more proportionally than other groups suffered. I don't think that their suffering can be said to be worse than the suffering suffered by the Germans after the war. The great mass expulsions, the great population movements - I don't think that their suffering in that respect is any worse but the fact remains that there was a crime of sorts that has to be atoned for. But to do what Adenauer did in that private conversation with Naim Goldman back in the 1940s, alright, we'll give you [unin], are you satisfied then? And, of course, the State of Israel happily accepted the billion dollars at that time from Germany, and went on to accept more and more and more and the West Germans are still paying and the bill is going to be presented continually, in alle Ewigkeit, the taxi meter is still running. And the only justification for that is the lie that the German people wanted it to happen. That there was an extermination and the extermination was a measure of the German State conducted by the German Führer in the name of the German people.
I've already long ago established that the German state and the German people and the German Führer had nothing to do with it. Whatever happened and there were individual excesses and atrocities and pogroms in places like Minsk and Kiev and Riga. Whatever happened were the crimes conducted for the most ordinary and repugnant motives of greed and thievery. Whatever happened were the crimes of individual gangsters and criminals, who deserved to be individually and separately punished. But this does not justify making an entire people pay and pay and pay in cash, which appears to be the only language that these victims understand. And this is why I hope that perhaps five years from now when I publish my final book, and it has to be my final book probably on Auschwitz, this is why I hope that people recognise that I've managed to pull off a coup even more spectacular than exposing the Hitler diaries as a fake. From one 6 million lie to another. That I will see then some of the world's most famous historians and politicians have the biggest omelette of all time, all over their face because for me, as an historian, I've always been led by one principle, one leitmotiv. In German it's 'es gibt nur die eine Wahrheit, die totale Wahrheit, and in English for myself as an historian there's only one sort of truth that matters and that is total truth. Truth is indivisible. [Applause]' [P's speech in Toronto, August 1988: K3, Tab. 2, pp. 22-23]
[1.2/P]'So how do we explain the fact that for forty-five years since the end of World War Two, we have all, internationally, globally, been beset by a common guilt: the idea that the human race was responsible for liquidating six million human beings in gas chambers. Well, the answer is: we have been subjected to the biggest propaganda offensive that the human race has ever known.'[P's speech to the 10th IHR, October 1990, 'Battleship Auschwitz' (also published in the JHR): K3, Tab. 6, at p. 499]

Faltering freedom The owners of Prudhomme's Lost Cajun Kitchen in central Pennsylvania, where folks "cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them ... as a way to explain their frustrations," as President Obama once described it, had a bright idea a while back. To boost business on Sundays, they offered a 10 percent discount to anyone who showed up with a church bulletin. Sure enough, an atheist complained, and Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission members engaged in deep thought last summer over whether the church-bulletin discount was permissible under state law, which classifies eateries like Prudhomme's as a "public accommodation." The commission decreed the business-builder was OK, so long as the owners didn't deny the same discount to atheists who presented secular documents from groups like the Freedom From Religion Foundation, which brought the action against Prudhomme's. In a nation that defined freedom rationally, diners who disdained religion would be free not to patronize restaurants like Prudhomme's, while the owners would be free to offer or withhold discounts as they see fit.

Heart Disease Health Center
Abnormal Heart Rhythms and Pacemakers
In this article
What Happens After the Pacemaker Procedure?
You may be admitted to the hospital overnight. The nurses will monitor your heart rate and rhythm.
You will be shown how to care for your wound. Keep your wound clean and dry. Look at your wound every day to make sure it is healing. Call your doctor if you notice:
- Increased drainage, bleeding, or oozing from the insertion site
- Increased opening of the incision
- Redness around the site
- Warmth along the site
- Increased body temperature (fever or chills)
Your pacemaker settings will be checked before you leave the hospital. You will receive a temporary ID card that tells you:
- The type of pacemaker and leads you have.
- The date of the pacemaker implant.
- The name of the doctor who implanted the pacemaker.
Within three months, you will receive a permanent card from the pacemaker company. Carry this card with you at all times in case you need medical attention at another hospital.
Will I Be Able to Move Around After the Procedure?
- Do not lift objects that weigh more than 10 pounds.
- Do not hold your arm above shoulder level for three weeks.
- Avoid activities that require pushing or pulling heavy objects, such as shoveling the snow or mowing the lawn.
- Stop any activity before you become overtired.
- Avoid golfing, tennis, and swimming for 6 weeks after the procedure.
- Try to walk as much as possible for exercise.
- Ask your doctor when you can resume more strenuous activities.
- Your doctor will tell you when you can go back to work, usually within a week after you go home. If you have the flexibility at your job, ease back to your regular works schedule.
Should I Avoid Certain Electrical Devices With a Pacemaker?
- Electric blankets, heating pads, and microwave ovens can be used and will not interfere with the function of your pacemaker.
- Cell phones should not be placed directly against the chest or on the same side as your pacemaker.
- You will need to avoid strong electric or magnetic fields, such as some industrial equipment; ham radios; high intensity radio waves (found near large electrical generators, power plants, or radiofrequency transmission towers); and arc resistance welders.
- Do not undergo any tests that require magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
- Your doctor or nurse can provide more information about what types of equipment may interfere with your pacemaker.
If you have concerns about your job or activities, ask your doctor.

Racing returning to Cleveland County (NC) Fairgrounds
Published: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 at 11:48 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 at 11:48 a.m.
SHELBY, N.C. – Racing is returning to the fairgrounds.
Want to go?
Gates open at 5 p.m., practice begins at 7 p.m. and the racing starts at 8 p.m. Friday.
General Admission is $8 for 11 and older, and children 10 and younger get in free.
Friday's event is weather permitting.
For racing rules, visit http://www.clevelandcountyfair.com/racing.htm or contact Roby Combs at 704-300-1902.
The Cleveland County Fairgrounds Speedway closed last July but will reopen Friday night, weather permitting.
"My expectation is to have 50 to 60 race cars a week once we get rolling," said track manager Roby Combs. "It's a little early right now, but I'm expecting a good year and a good turnout."
There are four divisions this year: Vintage Thunder and Lightning, Classic and Late Models, Flyin' Front Wheel Drive and Young Guns Front Wheel Drive, for youth 10 to 16 years old.
The season will run through September, Combs said.
The fairgrounds has a long history with racing, dating back many decades.
Young Guns and Vintage Thunder and Lightning are two new groups running this year.
"I've been connected with racing for years; I've been around it all my life," Combs said. "They needed someone to run the program so I stepped in."
Along with the four divisions, there will be special events from the Carolina Vintage Dwarf Car Association, open wheel modifieds and a vintage racing series.
"Anyone can sign up as long as they have a car that goes," Combs said.

Three Ways to Get Unstuck in Your Career
Are you're constantly overlooked for a promotion that never comes? Do you grind away at the job you think you have to do instead of DOING the job you want to do? Do you think your work life will get better if your boss would just [insert any of the following]: notice, retire, relax, focus, get it together, give you some help, get fired?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, conventional wisdom says to push through and try harder, but that is probably the worst career advice you'll ever get. When you're in a career plateau — a place where hard work stops working – you are battling one of the most powerful forces of nature: The Plateau Effect. And you're not alone. The Plateau Effect is woven into the fabric of the universe. It's why we get diminishing returns for our efforts, but with some battle-tested techniques you can break free. We've spent the past few years mining the fields of behavioral psychology, mathematics, sports, leadership and even culinary arts to find out how some of the most successful people and companies in the world have gone from stuck to success. Call your frustration a plateau, and you are bound to come up with many more constructive solutions. Here are three:
1. Master the Art of Diversity: People, relationships, businesses and even physical processes become immune to the same techniques, the same approaches, the same solutions. Maybe your mastery of one skill, like delivering a killer PowerPoint presentation, got you where you are, but eventually any one skill tops out. Immunity is the most basic force of the Plateau Effect. If your career is in an immunity plateau we have good news: the path to getting unstuck is diversity. It might take you a lot of effort to move from an A-minus presenter to an A-plus presenter, but it requires far less effort to make big progress on a weaker skill. Try an improv comedy class to electrify your conversations with coworkers or clients. Take a career vacation and shadow a chef, or a realtor, or a winemaker for a day. You'll think a little differently, bust through your immunity plateau and you might even find that a path outside of corporate America awaits.
2. Learn to make Retrograde Progress: It's tempting to go for the promotion that gives you a 5% raise or pushes you a notch up on the corporate ladder. But are you looking at the long-term picture? If that promotion comes with long hours, thankless tasks and requires your next boss to win the lottery and retire to make a move up, you need to take a breath before saying yes. You need to think about where your next career move is going to put you in five or 10 years—not one or two. The best short-term solution rarely leads to the best long-term outcome. If you find yourself always going for the quick win in your career you're following what mathematicians call the Greedy Algorithm. Sometimes, the best way to get ahead is to take a step back and make something we call retrograde progress. Giving yourself permission to pass up a promotion or take a pay cut to go to a company with more opportunities for growth could be the best long-term career choice you've ever made. As they say on airplanes, sometimes the closest exit door is behind you.
3. Wield the power of the Just Noticeable Difference: Day to day, it's difficult to tell if your life at work is getting better or worse. A situation can change slower than the threshold of perception that psychologists call the Just Noticeable Difference, or JND. The JND is why parents don't realize how much their newborn has grown in a week until a friend comes over and says "I can't believe how big she's gotten!" To the friend, a week's worth of growth came all at once. To the parents who see the baby every day, all that incremental hourly growth fell short of the JND. Are you happier at work now than you were a year ago or are you more frustrated? Keeping a journal about how you feel at work can help. If you recognize your current job is inescapably inching towards unhappiness, the worst career move you can make is investing the next ten years of your life there. By escaping the JND, you can objectively see how you're progressing, figure out what's working and what's failing, then correct it or look for your next great adventure.
These are a few of the techniques that will help you get unstuck in your career, with one caveat: the trick that breaks you out of your plateau today will eventually stop working. That's how the Plateau Effect works; eventually you'll get stuck again. Success is a constant recalibration, breaking through one plateau at a time.
Bob Sullivan and Hugh Thompson are the authors of "The Plateau Effect: Getting From Stuck to Success."

1.0 OverviewEach Memorial Day, the Hanover Recreation Department and Hanover Center Church observe the traditions of both Decoration Day and Muster Day with an observance at the Hanover Center Cemetery. The Boy Scouts provide a color guard and lead a procession from the church to the cemetery, where the Cub Scouts and Brownies remove the old, tattered flags from the graves of veterans, and replace them with new, fresh flags. After the formalities end, all participants are invited to a catered picnic on the lawn of the church.
2.0 Concept
2.1 DescriptionWe arrive at 1530 to help set up and to practice the presentation of the colors.
The actual ceremony begins at 1600. We will follow the program published by the Town of Hanover. Our role will be to present the colors, lead the Pledge of Allegiance, and then lead the procession from the church to the cemetery. At the cemetery, the color guard will post the colors at the gate and the rest of the scouts will enter the cemetery to begin replacing flags.
A flag disposal detail of older Scouts will have built a fire on a fire stand outside the cemetery, and the old flags will be respectfully burned as they are brought out of the cemetery.
In case of rain, the ceremony will move inside the church. Nevertheless, the flag replacement will still take place. Participants need to be flexible to adapt the program as necessary.
When the flags have been collected, Rev. Brayman will offer a benediction. The Hanover High School Band will play Taps and the ceremony ends.
Following the ceremony, we are welcome to eat the picnic meal served on the church lawn. Tickets are provided for uniformed participants.
After dinner, the Scouts help put tables and chairs away in the church.

- Aug 8:
- San Jose: Bikini bar opens downtown amid criticism from officials
- Jul 31:
- New, tighter rules proposed for 'adult-themed' entertainment in San Jose
- Jul 25:
- Pizarro: Don't tell the kids, but a bikini bar is opening in downtown San Jose
SAN JOSE -- Even before its opening next month, a "bikini bar" slated for downtown San Jose has stirred opposition and angst.
The Gold Club San Jose, whose grand opening hosted by porn star Katie Morgan is scheduled for Aug. 8 to 10, will feature scantily clad dancers on platforms that double as tables for guests. City rules prohibit nudity in clubs, but it remains unclear just how little the dancers will wear and what entertainment they will perform.
"San Jose is a great city, but it doesn't have an upscale club like this in that market," Mike Rose, chief executive officer of the South Carolina-based PML Clubs, which has licensed the operator of the club to use The Gold Club brand, told this newspaper. "There is a demand for upscale-type entertainment such as ours."
But the prospect of a bikini club in the heart of downtown on Santa Clara Street has drawn criticism from some, including Councilman Sam Liccardo, who represents the downtown area.
"Nothing about The Gold Club is consistent with the common ambition we have in San Jose to take the city and the downtown to the next level," Liccardo said in an interview. "Put simply, this is a lame idea. We already have no shortage of men in their 20s with ample testosterone."
Liccardo is consulting with city staff members to explore what measures might be taken to greatly limit the scope of entertainment at the club.
"The focus would be health and safety issues," Liccardo said, noting that the city can't impose an outright ban on exotic dancing. U.S. Supreme Court rulings have defined that sort of entertainment as protected expressions under the First Amendment.
"We don't regulate dancing, but we do regulate nudity, and there will be no nudity as defined by what is allowed under city ordinances," said Laurel Prevetti, San Jose's assistant planning director. "This is definitely a new type of enterprise coming to San Jose that we haven't seen before."
Sharing Liccardo's concerns about the club is Matthew Mahood, president of the San Jose Silicon Valley Chamber of Commerce. "We're disappointed that this type of business would be allowed to operate in the downtown city core," he said.
Rick Jensen, spokesman for the Downtown San Jose Association, declined to take a position on the club, though he said he expects it to be "good neighbors" with other downtown businesses.
"San Jose is an urban center, the cultural and entertainment center for Silicon Valley," Jensen said. "We understand there is a market demand for this type of establishment."
But Edwing Flores, owner of Picasso's, a restaurant across the street from the new club, is doubtful.
"It will be a big problem for the downtown and it may bring prostitution to this area," Flores said. "Customers will see a girl they like, have a drink, then have more entertainment after the doors close for the evening."
Tasha Mistry, a Fremont resident who works in downtown San Jose, agrees that the club is "inappropriate" at that location. "This area is supposed to be more corporate. I didn't even know this was going to be here," she said.
The Gold Club, which will operate across the street from a future residential high-rise that is under construction at Market and West Santa Clara streets, will likely have about 100 employees, Rose estimated. It is advertising online for cocktail waitresses, cashiers, bartenders and security personnel.

User-Agent: Showtime 2.99.401.gfd820
so I boosted that info and used it with the xbmc and normal PS3 conf files...
and tried UserAgentSearch= Showtime 2.99.401.gfd820
as well as UserAgentSearch=Showtime 2.99.401.gfd820 in both conf files...restarted everything with a solitary conf file named showtime.conf (saved as all files instead of text) placed in the renderers folder.
Music streams fine..all format practically. I can browse all the shared folder structures, it tries to queue up video files and I'm finding the following in the debug file
and this when I try to queue up a xvid avi file I know to work
It just sits on a black screen..title up top fades away and the debug file shows that the request keep occurring over and over
why am I so hung up on getting PMS and Showtime kosher w/ each other? Showtime does not recognize the the Cinavia flag embedded in certain audio streams..so its a bit of a workaround as you exit the PS3 dashboard XMB and enter the Showtime pkg/app for playback\\
I do appreciate any and all help on this

Genzyme boosts Sanofi earnings
30.04.2012 - The acquisition of Genzyme shows its benefits: Sanofi reported strong
sales and earnings growth in the first quarter of 2012.
Paris – The French drug maker reported a net profit of €1.8bn, up from €1.2bn in the first quarter of 2011. The better earnings, however, were not enough to change the company's gloomy outlook for the coming year. The executives warned that earnings in the rest of the year would be hit by the loss of US market exclusivity of its blood thinner Plavix (clopidogrel) in May, and blood pressure drug Avapro (irbesartan) at the end of March. Net sales rose more than 9% to €8.5bn, with revenue at the flagship pharmaceutical division, increasing 8.8% at constant exchange rates, to €7.32bn.
Genzyme contributed €841m. Sanofi benefited from growth in emerging markets (+9.9% to €2.6bn), with Brazil, Russia, Indian and China together contributing €917m. Sanofi's diabetes franchise also increased by 14.4% to €1.3bn. The contribution of Lantus (insulin glargine) is €1.1bn (+17.2%), which means it is the company's top-selling drug. Sanofi's oncology business grew by 12.8% to €741m, with Eloxatin (oxaliplatin) generating €321m in the US.
Sanofi's CEO Chris Viehbacher emphasised that the patent loss of former key products like Plavix and Avapro had been something the French multinational had long foreseen. According to Viehbacher, the company is now entering the final phase of its patent cliff. He said that Sanofi had built six "growth platforms" to replace sales lost to generic competition and generate sustainable growth. He noted that these new products would not be dependent on patents to the same extent. Growth platform businesses include Genzyme developments – including rare disease products like Cerezyme and Fabrazyme, plus the late-stage multiple sclerosis products Aubagio (teriflunomide) and Lemtrada (alemtuzumab). Other growth platforms are diabetes, vaccines, consumer health care, animal health, new products and emerging markets.http://www.european-biotechnology-news.com/news/news/2012-02/genzyme-boosts-sanofi-earnings.html

Liz Cheney's Daughters Tout Wyoming Roots in New Ad
Wyoming Senate candidate Liz Cheney sought to fight back against carpetbagging charges and deflect attention from her family's public dispute over same-sex marriage in an ad released Monday that features her three daughters praising their family's Wyoming roots.
"We're proud of our family's deep roots in Wyoming," one daughter declares.
The charge that the Republican candidate moved to the state to take advantage of the political situation has been one of Ms. Cheney's biggest challenges so far in her campaign to unseat incumbent Sen. Mike Enzi (R., Wyo.). A Public Policy Polling survey in July found only 31% of Wyoming voters considered her to be a "Wyomingite." The Gillette News Record ran an editorial the same month advising Ms. Cheney to run for Senate in Virginia "or some other state."
"We already have a U.S. senator—one who has spent his life in Wyoming," the editorial states.
Ms. Cheney, daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, has moved several times. She lived in Wyoming as a child, before moving to Virginia when Mr. Cheney was elected to Congress in 1978, when she was 12. She lived there with her family until 2012, when she bought a house near Jackson Hole. Ms. Cheney went to college in Colorado and law school in Chicago.
In August, the Jackson Hole News & Guide reported that Ms. Cheney had been fined $220 for purchasing a fishing license before fulfilling residency requirements. Wyoming state law mandates that residents live in the state for 365 consecutive days before they can receive a resident hunting or fishing license.
The ad goes into detail about the Cheney family's history in Wyoming.
"Our family first came here in 1852 walking the Mormon Trail,"one daughter says.
"My great-great-grandfather first settled in Fremont County in 1907," says another. "He was a ranch hand near Lysite."
"He and our great-great-grandmother both moved to the Salt Creek oil fields, where they raised their five children," a third says. "One of their children, our great-grandmother, was the first female deputy sheriff of Natrona County."
At the end of the ad, Ms. Cheney joins her daughters and approves their message.
The Cheney family has been battling over gay marriage publicly since Nov. 17, when Ms. Cheney said in an interview on "Fox News Sunday" that gays shouldn't have the right to marry. Her sister, Mary, and her wife, Heather Poe, used their Facebook pages to criticize her as hypocritical for telling the couple that she was happy for them at the time of their marriage.

Your tax-deductible gift to the Naval Institute Press underwrites worthy books that might not otherwise be published.
For its final battleship design Italy ignored all treaty restrictions on tonnage, and produced one of Europe's largest and most powerful capital ships, comparable with Germany's Bismarck class which were also built in defiance of international agreements. The three ships of the Littorio class were fast and elegant, but also boasted a revolutionary protective scheme–which was tested to the limits, as all three were heavily damaged in the hard-fought naval war in the Mediterranean. The book combines a detailed analysis of the design with an operational history, evaluating how the ships stood up to combat. It is illustrated with an amazing collection of photographs, detailed plans, and colored artwork of camouflage schemes, adding up to as complete a study of this class of battleship ever published.
Ermino Bagnasco is the Editor of Storia Militare, Italy's leading military journal. Augusto De Toro is a member of the staff of Storia Militare.
This book covers the Italian Littorio class battleships, in detail. It appears to be an English translation of the 2010 book "Le Navi da Battaglia Classe Littorio 1937-1948", second edition, by Bagnasco & De Toro. It is organized into 6 major chapters entitled "Battleships and Italian Naval Policy between the two World Wars", "Design and General Characteristics", Technical Description", "Construction, Sea Trials and Commissioning", "Operational History", and Comparisons and Conclusions". Appendices include a listing of operational movements and locations, detailed evaluations of each incident of battle damage, and gunnery details. The book is extensively illustrated with occasionally grainy, but frequently unusual photographs, extensive sketches and line drawings, and contains a section of small-scale plans and color/camouflage images. The book is a gold mine of detail. Some examples of this include cut-away drawings of turret layouts, ammunition stowage and armor placement plans, and detailed discussion of topics such as the Pugliese underwater protection system and the "composite"-construction side armored belt. The book also contains quite a bit of objective-sounding discussion of the pros and cons of these various design elements, and of their performance in comparison with equivalent elements in contemporary battleships of other nations. Physical quality is quite good. I recommend this book. MH

Pleural effusion is inflammation of the pleura. The pleura are a large, thin sheet of tissue that wraps around the outside of your lungs and lines the inside of your chest cavity. Between the layer of the pleura that wraps around your lungs and the layer that lines your chest cavity is a very thin space. This is called the pleural space. Normally it's filled with a small amount of fluid-about 4 teaspoons full. The fluid helps the two layers of the pleura glide smoothly past each other as your lungs breathe air in and out.
Pleural effusion occurs when the two layers of the pleura become red and inflamed. Then they rub against each other every time your lungs expand to breathe in air. This can cause sharp pain with breathing.
Sometimes there is excess fluid in the pleural space. The buildup of fluid usually forces the two layers of the pleura apart so they don't rub against each other when you breathe. This can relieve your pain. However, a large amount of extra fluid can push the pleura against your lung until the lung, or a part of it, collapses. This can make it hard for you to breathe. In some cases of pleural effusion, the extra fluid gets infected and turns into an abscess. This is called an empyema.
Infections like pneumonia are the most common cause of swelling, or inflammation, of the pleura and pleurisy. Heart failure, cancer, or a pulmonary embolism can also lead to a pleural effusion.

Wilson: Bears are versatile, talented and unbeaten
And a senior shall lead them. Oops, let's try again. And a junior shall lead them. Well, wait a minute here. One more time. And a freshman shall lead them. Aw, the heck with it. How about they will be led by the whole team?
Undefeated defending Class S girls basketball champion Coginchaug rolled into Thomaston on Friday night and rolled out three hours later on the short end of a 54-41 score, having been hit from all directions by a diverse and talented arsenal.
The Bears knew they were good coming into the game, just not how good. They were undefeated, but hadn't played a competitive contest. Well, this was a major test, and the response was grade-A material.
In a tight first half that had the Bears leading, 25-24, the two anchors of the team, senior Maggie Eberhardt and junior Abby Hurlbert, carried the load by totaling 21 points. But when both were in serious foul trouble in the second half, the other Bears stepped up.
Senior Sydney Keith guided the ship, that at one time had four freshmen on the floor with Hurlbert and Eberhardt on the bench.
Need some offense?
How about freshman Morgan Sanson scoring all 14 of her points in final 16 minutes?
Oh, and there was some solid play and six points from freshman Gabrielle Hurlbert. Just another thought for you to file away: Abby and Gabrielle are sisters and Morgan is a cousin. More than just a little family thing going on here.
"It was a team win," said Bears coach Bob McMahon. "The big guys (Abby Hurlbert and Eberhardt) did what they had to do, and then we played without them and we never went into the panic mode."
It all caught Coginchaug coach Rett Mancinelli's attention.
"Thomaston played very well," he noted. "They played with a lot of energy and shared it well. When we had their two best players on the bench, we didn't capitalize on it. But that's not to take anything away from who they had on the floor. Whoever they had on the floor played well."
The Bears (5-0) jumped out to an early 7-2 lead, but needed an Eberhardt 10-foot baseline jumper in the final seconds of the first half to take the lead by a point into the locker room. Eberhardt scored 11 of her game-high 15 points in the opening half and Hurlbert 10 of her 12 points. It led to the thought that more offense was going to have come from other sources, and it did.
Sanson started the third period with a gorgeous reverse layup, and Eberhardt followed with an offensive rebound basket to up the lead to 29-24. After a Coginchaug foul shot, Bryttnie Thomas hit a pair from the line and Sanson one to make it 32-25.
Then things got a little dicey for the Bears. With Abby Hurlbert on the bench in foul trouble, Eberhardt proceeded to pick up three quick fouls in less than two minutes.
Enter Keith. First, she drained a 3-pointer from the side, but it was the experience that helped steady a crew that won't be old enough to drive for about three years.
"I definitely felt some leadership," said the soft-spoken Keith. "A lot of talking, telling people where to go. We can count on every player on this team; I wasn't worried."
"What Sydney did with two people on the bench was really important," said McMahon. "She took care of the ball and played defense. She was really impressive."
The Bears upped the lead to 39-30 on an Abby Hurlbert drive to the hoop with just over two minutes left in the third quarter and took a 39-32 lead into the final period. A quick five-point burst begun by another Sanson reverse layup upped the lead to 44-32 with six minutes remaining. Coginchaug never recovered.
"With Maggie and Abby out, we knew we had to step it up," said Sanson.
The Blue Devils' demise was at least in part their own doing despite all that Thomaston threw at them. They shot a bone-chilling 11-of-30 at the foul line and were just 5-of-32 from the floor in the second half.
"The game wasn't lost because of just one aspect," said Mancinelli. "First of all, we gave up 54 points. "We strive for 70 percent from the line and are shooting about 60 percent. Tonight, it was 37 percent. And we made some adjustments at halftime because our offense was stale, and the shots just didn't go in."
Kim Romanoff scored 13 points to lead Coginchaug while Olivia Corazzini added 11 points. Jessica Solomon chipped in with nine points and 13 rebounds.
It's a long season, with most of it still in front of the Bears, but they didn't mince words about this win.
"It was a championship game and we needed to win," said Eberhardt. "It fills our (confidence) up a lot."
And McMahon figures it was far from the team's best effort.
"I still don't think we've played our best, but we played our hardest and I'll take my chances if we play that hard," said McMahon.

Grilled Pork Loin And Spinach Salad With Thai Peanut Dressing
Tonight's dinner started out to be something entirely different. I had some leftover grilled pork loin that was supposed to become part of a stir fry with pasta. The temperature hit 82 here today however, and I thought it was entirely too warm in my kitchen to be boiling water and heating oil and basically making the house even hotter. A spinach salad sounded so much more refreshing than a heavy pasta dish, so I used the sauce I'd already prepared and adapted it to be used as a dressing for this salad. It was a great choice. The combination of baby spinach and crispy vegetables made for a wonderful warm weather salad but the pork and sauce/dressing made it a stand alone and hearty meal.
You may have seen my recipe for Thai peanut dressing elsewhere on my blog. Its versatility makes it a great accompaniment to pork, chicken and pasta. I've even found it makes a fantastic pizza sauce!
Grilled Pork Loin And Spinach Salad With Thai Peanut Dressing (serves 4)
1/4 cup peanut butter
2 TBSP sugar (I used Splenda)
1 TBSP fresh lime juice (about 1/2 lime)
3 TBSP chicken broth or water
1 TBSP reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tsp dark sesame oil
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
8 oz. cooked pork loin, cubed
8 cups baby spinach
4 oz. sugar snap peas, diced
1 orange or red bell pepper, seeded, julienned
1 (8 oz) can sliced water chestnuts, drained
2 green onions, green and light green parts only, diced
In sauce pan over medium low heat, combine peanut butter, sugar, lime juice, broth, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic powder and red pepper flakes. Stir until peanut butter is melted and dressing is smooth. Add the cubed pork loin, stir to combine and remove from heat.
Arrange spinach on salad plates or bowls. Top with sugar snap peas, bell pepper and water chestnuts. Spoon pork and dressing on top and garnish with green onions.

I was 11 years old when God died. The April 8, 1966 cover of Time magazine declared his death, or at least speculated by asking "Is God Dead?"
I was too young to pay attention to the question. At 11, I only wanted to beat Paul Pechner in spelling. But it's a question that lots of people have been asking in one form or another throughout history. Maybe not, "Is he dead?" but "Is he relevant to my life?"
We are, above all, supremely self-absorbed.
Today, I looked up the 1966 Time cover story, "Toward a Hidden God," and read it. It could've been written in 2008.

Every church has one and mine is no exception - a matriarch or mother of the church.
It's not a title or position someone campaigns for or is appointed to, but it's a role someone becomes by virtue of her love and faith and selfless faithfulness.
In my church, that would be a tiny pipsqueak named Betty Santana. I always tell Betty that the reason I like her so much is because I tower over her. The truth is, even though she's only about 4-foot-9 or so, she towers over everyone at my church, me included.

- Candidate profile: Teresa Alvarado campaigns for reform in wake of Shirakawa scandal
SAN JOSE -- Of all the candidates running to succeed disgraced former Santa Clara County Supervisor George Shirakawa Jr., none triggers a more visceral reaction than Cindy Chavez.
To South Bay public employee unions, she's a savior -- the powerful labor leader and former San Jose vice mayor who has worked to boost their salaries and benefits, fighting for their right to make a decent living in one of the most expensive regions of the country. But to others, including many business people, Chavez has morphed into one of Silicon Valley's most polarizing forces.
Close friends such as Dolly Sandoval say Chavez's heart is always in the right place. "Cindy's role is that every single person in Santa Clara County should be afforded the same opportunity to achieve their greatest potential -- and some residents need more help," said Sandoval, a former Cupertino mayor.
Yet seven years after Chavez lost to Chuck Reed in a San Jose mayoral race in which her chief liability was being linked to a disgraced mayor who had been implicated in a backroom garbage deal, critics say her mission remains the same: pass more taxes to pay for services while protecting government workers' pensions and benefits.
And after being chosen in 2009 to head the South Bay AFL-CIO Labor Council, her detractors say, Chavez's bare-knuckles tactics have often made her look like a bully. They point to her blackballing of two former labor allies on the City Council who supported Reed's pension reform, as well as to her alleged pressuring of the district attorney over his prosecution of Shirakawa.
Chavez, 49, calls the characterizations both unfair and untrue.
Yes, she agrees that she's tough. And yes, Chavez said, she's laser-focused on labor's goals and winning elections for union-backed candidates and measures that she says will benefit those most in need.
But she said she will not apologize for chastising elected officials whose careers were launched after labor poured time and money into their campaigns, only to watch them betray their benefactors. Nor will she back down from her goal to "serve the neediest part of our district" by focusing on public safety and health care reform.
What she says she brings to the table more than any other candidate is "an experienced leader to address those challenging issues."
Chavez points to her two terms on the San Jose City Council, where she helped pass the county's Children's Health Initiative, which pays for health insurance for low-income kids, and voted for affordable housing subsidies. She touts her support of efforts that beefed up neighborhood services and a BART extension to San Jose.
Last fall, she helped lead successful labor efforts to pass two ballot measures, one that increased San Jose's minimum wage, and another that hiked the county sales tax to pay for health, safety and social services.
Business groups opposed both, saying the higher wages kill jobs and that the tax will be funneled to pay for the county's soaring employee pension and benefit costs.
Pension reform at the county level "will be very difficult for her," said Pat Dando, a former San Jose vice mayor and ex-president of the San Jose Silicon Valley Chamber of Commerce, which has endorsed Chavez's major rival, Teresa Alvarado.
"She has been very closely wed to labor and what labor wants," said Dando, who predicts that if Chavez is elected, little if any headway will be made to reduce the county's $3 billion-plus unfunded pension liability, further threatening county services.
Chavez opposed Measure B, Reed's pension reform that overwhelmingly passed last June. The controversial measure also prompted an ugly rift between Chavez and some city officials, including one-time labor ally Rose Herrera.
"She said to me more than once: 'If you don't do what I want, I will run someone against you,' " Councilwoman Herrera said. "I took her aside and I told her: 'I don't like being threatened,' and she said, 'You're either with us or against us.' "
Herrera then watched in anguish last fall as Chavez's labor troops poured tens of thousands into her challenger's ultimately unsuccessful campaign.
Chavez, however, insists that she continues to work well with most city and county leaders on a variety of issues. Treating people with dignity has been a lifelong pursuit, she said, one taught to her by parents.
Born in Alamogordo, N.M., and raised in Fremont, Chavez is the oldest of three children. Her father, a carpenter who worked building homes, was a union man, but as a registered Republican, she said, "he questioned his union; he questioned authority."
She said he also instilled in her a sense of confidence, even as he struggled with alcoholism, which led to his death in 1993.
By the time she graduated from Moreau Catholic High School in Hayward, Chavez was homecoming queen and student body president. And five years later, she graduated from San Jose State with a degree in political science.
Chavez went on to work on political campaigns and was eventually inspired to run for a City Council seat after gunshots were fired one night outside the first home she owned with her husband near downtown San Jose. At least one bullet sailed through their bedroom.
When police showed up, they told the couple they might consider moving. Frustrated, Chavez decided it was important to stay and fight to improve the neighborhood.
In 1998, she ran for the District 3 council seat and narrowly won. She was unopposed in her second term -- and has also since moved with her husband and son to Naglee Park.
Now, as she competes for the supervisorial office that might very well have been hers in 2008 -- she stepped aside to allow Shirakawa to campaign for the seat -- Chavez says she has few political regrets.
"It's not to say I have been perfect. I have not been," Chavez said. "All I have is my record, and it's a record of accomplishment."

The massive mountain stage is on at the Tour de France and it's hard and confusing. Without a patron, or boss, this year like Lance it's a free for all and the tactics we've seen before (driving the pace and riding your rivals into the ground) aren't the same. On the Tour de France blog, Frank Steele (a fellow bike hugger) and his readers are trying to make sense of it. Even us veteran fans are puzzled. A leader should emerge today or at least, you'd think one would!
About 1/2 way through our honeymoon/cycling trip across Southcentral Alaska a couple years ago, I spotted an espresso ahead sign and was like what! It had been days since I'd had good coffee and I mean Seattle-style, dark muddy, depth-charge-in-your-gut espresso and rode 26 miles, ticking off each mile, and noting each sign to get a cup. And it was really good, best cup ever actually.
It was a perfect day for a ride and I rode with Pam to the REI Seattle Women's CycleFest. Bike Hugger was there with Union Bay Cycling, Wines of Washington Cycling Team to promote the sport to women, give out schwag, and meet all the cyclists.
If we met you there, hello! And thanks for visiting our blog.
Hugh Forrest, of SXSW fame, tipped us to Kenny Souza: Natural Power, a full-length documentary currently in production on the course of the 2006 RAAM. I couldn't think of a better documentary topic, what those racers put their bodies through is incredible (including riding through sleep-deprived hallucinations), and the documentary will capture, "the sacrifice, discipline and focus needed to undertake such an amazing journey."
Highlights from the blog include Bob Roll and Ned Overend encouraging Kenny along the route.
Also see my post on "another fine day for riding" in Austin during SXSW earlier this year.
As Frank announced, I'm guest posting on the Tour de France Blog for a few days. Frank is attending a funeral, spending time with his family, and I'm going take a pull for him.

As bishop of Lyons he was especially concerned with the Gnostics, who took their name from the Greek word for "knowledge." Claiming access to secret knowledge imparted by Jesus to only a few disciples, their teaching was attracting and confusing many Christians. After thoroughly investigating the various Gnostic sects and their "secret," Irenaeus showed to what logical conclusions their tenets led. These he contrasted with the teaching of the apostles and the text of Holy Scripture, giving us, in five books, a system of theology of great importance to subsequent times. Moreover, his work, widely used and translated into Latin and Armenian, gradually ended the influence of the Gnostics.
The circumstances and details about his death, like those of his birth and early life in Asia Minor, are not at all clear.
A group of Christians in Asia Minor had been excommunicated by Pope Victor I because of their refusal to accept the Western church's date for celebrating Easter. Irenaeus, the "lover of peace" as his name indicates, interceded with the pope to lift the ban, indicating that this was not an essential matter and that these people were merely following an old tradition, one that men such as Saint Polycarp (February 23) and Pope Anicetus had not seen as divisive. The pope responded favorably and the rift was healed. Some one hundred years later, the Western practice was voluntarily adopted.

Loving the media server but I have one little problem, nothing serious but I'd like to get around it.
I've got PSM installed as a service on the pc but when I start up my ps3 it doesn't look for it.
Basically I have to go downstairs, switch on my ps3, go back upstairs, stop psm running in the taskbar then restart it. From there everything connects up fine.
Is there a way that PSM will constantly look for a signal from my ps3 so I can just switch on and go?
Thanks for looking

Post subject: Driving whilst pregnant
know that RoSPA and all good resources say that the lap belt section of the seatbelt should be kept low over the hips (not rising up over the bump)... has anyone tried a device called the CG-Lock? I saw this at a motorsport show and it looked very impressive. Also claims better posture as it holds you firmly against the lumbar support..?

The brilliant mind of Jean Schlumberger produced a profusion
of rare delights: exotic sea creatures, fantastic birds and marvelous
flowers of gold. With Tiffany's breathtaking gemstones at his
fingertips, he envisioned some of the world's greatest jewelry
masterpieces. Tiffany jewelers in New York and Paris still handcraft
the ravishing jewels that are Schlumberger's invaluable legacy
to art and fashion.
—Jean Schlumberger
In 1956, Jean Schlumberger joined Tiffany & Co. Immediately,
his designs were coveted and collected by the world's most
fashionable women, including Jacqueline Kennedy and legendary
Vogue editor Diana Vreeland. Today, they continue to be worn by
women of unimpeachable taste.
Since the 19th century, Tiffany gemologists have journeyed to remote corners of the globe in search of exquisite gemstones. Their lustrous hues are showcased in Tiffany designs which celebrate nature's precious bounty.

But when i import it in my favority CNC software (usbcnc, www.edingcnc.com) there's obviously something wrong here...
I just dived a bit deeper into this problem, and tested the same function in CamBam and that works great.
I just noticed that it seems something to do with the conversion of "spline" as the parts missing are all 'splines'
Am i doing something wrong or is this a bug ?
@Andrew: Great software, i'm absolutely buying a license from you. It's a very low learning curve for me. Keep going on this way!
