UPD investigating incident at P.K. Yonge
Published: Wednesday, November 7, 2012 at 6:06 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, November 7, 2012 at 6:06 p.m.
Police at the University Florida arrested and charged a student at P.K. Yonge Developmental Research School on Friday after school officials reported an incident involving lewd and lascivious behavior Thursday.
Maj. Brad Barber, spokesman for the University Police Department, said the reported incident involved two juveniles - a victim and a student who has been charged with lewd and lascivious behavior and false imprisonment.
He would not say if more individuals are involved, but said the investigation is ongoing.
"There's a continuing investigation, and further charges may be forthcoming," he said.
UF spokeswoman Janine Sikes said she couldn't discuss details due to an ongoing investigation and the age of the students involved.
Lynda Hayes, director of P.K. Yonge, sent an email and left a phone message with parents Friday explaining the increased police presence on the P.K. Yonge campus last week:
"You may have seen police officers on campus this week. Serious and inappropriate behavior between students is under investigation by the University of Florida Police Department.
"We are working with UPD in an effort to understand the circumstances around the incident. Because of the age of the individuals involved, no faculty, staff, administrators, or officers are able to answer questions or discuss the incident. We have taken appropriate steps regarding students. Please refrain from asking any students questions or participating in conversations regarding the incident."
Mark Robinson, president of the P.K. Yonge Parent Teacher Organization, said he received a phone call about the incident.
"They said there was an inappropriate incident," he said, "and due to the ages, they couldn't give any more information."
Robinson said he's not concerned and that the incident was probably isolated.
"It's a very unusual situation," he said. "They were being proactive in letting the families know that something was going on. It had no impact on most of the kids - just a courtesy call to say we're on top of it. I'm confident it's isolated and confident the administration is handling it."

SAN JOSE -- In recent years, four newly built but mothballed branch libraries stood as stark evidence of San Jose's budget mess, built with bond proceeds voters approved more than a decade ago by a city that could no longer afford to staff them.
On Saturday, the first of those four new branch libraries, Seven Trees, is set to finally celebrate its grand opening.
"People have been waiting a long time for it to open," said Anne Cain, San Jose's interim library director. "It will make a huge difference in this community."
The city's original Seven Trees library opened in 1967. It was closed in 2008 and demolished to make way for the new version, which occupies the upper floor of a new Seven Trees Community Center that opened in September 2011.
The Seven Trees library was completed and ready to open in October 2010. But the city was grappling with record budget deficits and mass layoffs that year, and city leaders decided it should sit mothballed until sufficient funds were available to open it.
"This is a significant milestone for the Seven Trees community," said Vice Mayor Madison Nguyen, whose district includes the library. "This is a community that has been significantly underserved. I think the community will be very excited about this."
There will be a ceremony Saturday that will include Nguyen, Mayor Chuck Reed, local library boosters and dozens of families in an event that will include face painting, crafts and music.
The other three mothballed new libraries are scheduled to open soon: Bascom next month, Educational Park in May and Calabasas in June.
"After so many years of operating on staff reductions, it's great to have some good news for a change," said Jean Lee, chair of the city's library commission. "We're very, very excited."
The new Seven Trees library cost $8.9 million, funding made available by a voter-approved library bond measure in 2000.
The library occupies more than 15,000 square feet of space and is built to the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design gold standard. Near the entrance is an artwork called "Potential" by Samuel Rodriguez and Matthew Rodriguez that resembles a model bicycle kit.
The library boasts colorful floors and walls to create a livelier and more inviting atmosphere. Many shelves in the children's section have the books facing outward to capture kids' attention.
Cain explained that the new libraries are designed to reflect shifting uses and expectations. Gone are the days when libraries were just cavernous rooms lined with row upon row of books, all overseen by a humorless hush-meister.
The new library features spaces for young children, a quiet study area, a technology center filled with computers, a room designed for teenagers, a place for families, a quiet study area and a "living room" with a faux fireplace for magazine reading.
"People are looking at libraries now as a place where they can spend time," Cain said. "This looks like the kind of place where you would want to come and spend a couple of hours."

Capital Journal Daybreak: Syrian Defector's Photos Could Trigger War-Crimes Charges | GOP Regroups on Border Bill | Jobs Day: What Yellen, White House Will Look For
Sign up for the newsletter: http://on.wsj.com/CapitalJournalSignup
SYRIAN DEFECTORS PHOTOS COULD TRIGGER WAR-CRIMES CHARGES: The Obama administration is fashioning a new strategy to prosecute Syrian war crimes based on a trove of photos smuggled out of the country by the defector code-named Caesar, U.S. officials said. Because Russia, the primary patron of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, has blocked an international prosecution, the U.S. and its allies are focusing on possible crimes where individual countries already have jurisdiction—those involving their own nationals or dual citizens who may have been victims or perpetrators in Syria. The 50,000 photographs that catalog Syria's grim civil war make that possible because many of the victims can be named, officials said.
Caesar, a former Syrian military-police photographer, testified Thursday before a House committee about his job documenting thousands of corpses at a Damascus hospital, many of which were mutilated or showed other signs of torture. The images are being analyzed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and other Western law-enforcement agencies, which believe they are authentic. Jess Bravin and Michael R. Crittenden report.
For the mere bystander, the monthly jobs report offers a simple tidbit or two on the health of the U.S. labor market. Did the unemployment rate go up or down? How many jobs were lost or gained? It's a far different story for the hundreds of aficionados—bank economists, White House advisers, Federal Reserve officials—who will plunge into Friday's report on the July jobs picture for answers to far deeper questions. Read Neil King Jr.'s quick guide for what they'll look for and why it matters in Washington Wire.
GAZA TRUCE BREAKS DOWN: Fighting between Israel and Hamas broke out Friday, hours after a three-day cease-fire took effect that was intended as a first step toward a lasting peace. On Thursday, Israel and Hamas agreed to a three-day cease-fire in the Gaza conflict that was set to begin Friday morning, and Israel, Hamas and other Palestinian factions planned to travel to Cairo immediately for negotiations aimed at building the cease-fire into a more lasting truce.
CIA IMPROPERLY ACCESSED SENATE COMPUTERS: Central Intelligence Agency officers snooped on computers used by a Senate committee investigating the CIA's interrogation program, an internal agency report has concluded. That finding is a critical one in the bitter standoff that continues between the two government branches. CIA Director John Brennan apologized to key senators briefed on the report. The finding bolsters allegations by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.), who has denounced what she describes as a CIA search of Senate computers that may have violated the Constitution. Siobhan Gorman reports.
GOP LEADERS TO REGROUP ON BORDER BILL: Deep divisions among House Republicans over immigration forced their leaders to pull from the floor yesterday a bill dealing with the surge of young illegal immigrants on the Southern border. The sudden canceling of the vote on the $659 million border bill was an embarrassment to the new members of House GOP leadership set to assume their roles Friday. Delaying the start of their five-week August recess for a day, House Republicans planned to meet Friday morning to attempt to find modest changes that could help secure majority support for the bill. Kristina Peterson and Michael R. Crittenden report.
CALIFORNIA SEES RISING PREMIUMS: Premiums for health-law plans in California will go up 4.2% on average next year, an increase that the state's insurance marketplace said was limited partly due to the large and relatively healthy pool of enrollees it had attracted. Nationally, 2015 rate changes for plans sold through marketplaces created under the health law will vary widely. But California is seen as a bellwether, since the state has about 1.4 million of the 8 million total people who enrolled, according to federal statistics released May 1. Anna Wilde Mathews reports.
ALSO IN THE NEWS: Rep. Eric Cantor (R., Va.) will resign from the House on Aug. 18 after stepping down from his role as House majority leader Thursday… New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie stumped in New Hampshire, his second trip in the early presidential primary state in two months … A bill to fund highway and mass-transit projects through May passed Congress … The Dow's 317-point tumble has evaporated the calm that pervaded financial markets for months … The Senate passed an approximately $17 billion compromise bill that would help pay for overhauls to the Department of Veterans Affairs.

The relationship between the U.S. and Israel has become strained following increased violence in Gaza and the U.S.'s decision last month to say American airlines can't land in Tel Aviv. Washington Bureau Chief Jerry Seib and State Department reporter Jay Solomon explain. Watch the full Capital Journal Roundtable on WSJ.com at 11 a.m. EDT.
–CONGRESS: The House is back in session Friday even though members had hoped to have started their five-week recess by now. Lawmakers are wrestling over $659 million legislation to deal with the influx of migrants at the Southern border. Senators late last night wrapped up their business with the confirmation of John Tefft to be ambassador to Russia.
–JOBS DAY: July jobs numbers will offer the first big hint on the strength of the economy in the second quarter after Thursday's report showed second-quarter GDP grew by a robust 4%. Here's what to watch for.
–AFRICAN LEADERS SUMMIT: African leaders begin to arrive in Washington for next week's African Leaders Summit. On Friday morning, the White House hosts an event on "Faith Works: Honoring the Contributions of the Faith Community to Peace and Prosperity in Africa," in D.C.'s Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center.
Britain's Independent newspaper reports that German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Russian President Vladimir Putin are secretly negotiating a deal to end the conflict in Ukraine under which Russia would end support for Russian separatists and provide Ukraine a reliable supply of gas, and in return get acknowledgement of its annexation of Ukraine and assurances Ukraine won't join NATO.
Libya's problems haven't gotten much attention amid crises elsewhere, but Hisham Matar of The New Yorker writes that the country is "staring at the abyss of civil war." The government has essentially collapsed, militias are roaming and "Libyans are bewildered and shocked by the violence that has been unleashed."
The New Republic's Danny Vinik writes that Sen. Ted Cruz's efforts to sabotage a House bill addressing the problem of Central American immigrants at the border shows that if he runs for president, he "will continue to position himself as the most conservative candidate, especially on immigration," pulling other candidates to the right and "reinforcing the perception that the Republican Party is hostile to Hispanics."
Here's another race to watch: Just days before a primary election, a new Civil Beat poll shows Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie trailing state Sen. David Ige by double digits in the race for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination.
In WSJ's Think Tank, Linda Killian writes that evidence available so far doesn't support the argument that switching to "top two" primaries–in which the two leading vote-getters advance to a general election regardless of party—will produce more centrist candidates and increase voter turnout.
On average, 65% of workers are offered paid sick leave from their job, 74% are offered paid vacation, and 75% paid holidays, according to the latest data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Re-envisioning Venice
Success of Nolen plan shows value of forward thinking
Published: Wednesday, January 2, 2013 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, December 28, 2012 at 5:32 p.m.
It is said that a vision without a plan is just a dream.
The core of Venice was envisioned by John Nolen, a landscape architect who in the 1920s created a city plan that respected nature, development and civic spaces.
Mayor John Holic recently proposed that Venice again envision its future and create an implementation plan.
Planning has concentrated on short-term goals and immediate needs in recent years. Holic suggests taking a longer view.
The City Council will conduct a workshop on Jan. 28, at the Village on the Isle, to develop a process for creating a new plan.
In an era of rapidly changing conditions, envisioning the future and planning for it are challenging. But the lasting success of Nolen's vision and plan underscores the value of forward thinking.
Public participation in the workshop will be limited but city officials vow to engage Venice residents and answer their questions once a process is established.
Jim Prosser, a consultant to local governments nationwide, suggests that planning sessions include a statement that represents a consensus view of the community's idea. He recommends that the statement help distinguish a city's unique characteristics, while encouraging the community to reach for excellence. The implementation plan should include instruments designed to keep planning on track, while recognizing the inevitable need to make adjustments based on unanticipated events.
These ideas are worth considering in Venice. The city is at an important juncture. The economy is recovering from a recession that nearly halted development. New staff and council members have assumed leadership positions, creating the potential for fresh dialogue.
We hope Venice residents will have ample opportunities to share their views and contribute to a plan that has the lasting benefits of Nolen's blueprint and room for changing conditions that no one can envision.

The Fed's Low-Rate Message Is Sinking In
Sometimes it's newsworthy when something doesn't happen. That's the case in the past few days in interest rate futures markets, where investors are betting short-term interest rates will stay extraordinarily low far into the future.
During the summer, as the Federal Reserve talked about pulling back on its $85 billion monthly bond-buying, investors in the futures markets saw that as a signal the Fed would raise short-term interest rates sooner than previously expected. Now investors expect the Fed to hold the line on rate increases even though expectations have reemerged that it will begin to scale back its bond buying in the next few months.
Consider, for example, the December 2014 fed funds future contract. Trading in this contract suggests investors expect the federal funds rate – an overnight borrowing rate — to be 0.165% on average during the month of December 2014. The expected fed funds rate had reached 0.49% in early September.
In the Eurodollar futures markets, where investors make trades based on where they see 3-month borrowing rates, the expected rate is 0.41%, compared to an expected rate of 0.85% in early September.
Several developments might help explain why rate expectations are so stable:
–Fed officials have repeated their message often enough that investors are starting to believe them;
–President Barack Obama's decision to nominate Janet Yellen to become Fed chairwoman convinced investors the Fed will have a policy "dove" at the helm who will be reluctant to raise rates aggressively;
–Research released by Fed economists last week showed the Fed staff believes a low-for-long interest rate policy is the best medicine for the economy.
–Investors might be discounting a shift at the Fed toward an even more aggressive low-for-long strategy. As we report in the Wall Street Journal today, Fed officials are debating whether to shift their guidance on rates. They have been saying they won't raise rates until the unemployment rate drops below 6.5%, but they're considering a lower threshold.
As Fed officials plot their next move on the bond-buying program, they're likely to be watching futures market developments closely. They have been trying to convince investors for months that they plan to keep short-term interest rates near zero far into the future, even after the bond-buying program ends. They believe a promise of low rates will help to encourage borrowing, spending and investment today to keep the recovery going. They were unnerved during the summer when expectations for short-term rates started moving higher. The fact that expectations are so stable now could give officials some additional comfort that the environment is now safer for pulling back on bond buying.
It is striking that prices in the futures markets have remained stable in the past few days, after the Labor Department reported stronger-than-expected growth in payroll employment in October. The report likely means officials will consider pulling back the bond-buying program at their December meeting, though it's not clear they'll be ready to act by then.
"They're probably reassured that their message has gotten across," says Julia Coronado, economist with BNP Paribas.

Eye Health Center
Experimental Contacts May Ease Pain After Laser Eye Surgery
Jan. 20, 2012 -- Researchers are developing contact lenses that may one day deliver painkilling drugs directly to the cornea after laser eye surgery.
The contact lenses rely on nanotechnology to slow the delivery of anesthetic medications.
Researchers say that if the technique works, it could eliminate the need for patients to repeatedly apply numbing eye drops after their photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) procedures.
"This would represent a version of time-release which would reduce the number of drops that a patient would need," says Robert F. Steinert, MD, an eye surgeon who is professor and chair of the department of ophthalmology at the University of California at Irvine.
Steinert, who is also a spokesman for the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, reviewed a study of the new technology but was not involved in the research.
"I think it would add convenience, but it probably isn't a game changer," he says, noting that most patients are currently able to control their pain after PRK by using eye drops every couple of hours for the first three days or so, and they already have to wear bandage contact lenses while their eyes heal.
Could Better Pain Relief Give PRK an Edge Over Lasik?
In PRK, surgeons remove the surface of the cornea and reshape the deeper layers underneath. The outer layer eventually grows back.
That's a bit different than Lasik, where doctors make a flap out of the outer layers of the cornea and use a laser to reshape the tissue underneath. The flap is then replaced. But it can be dislodged or dislocated if the eye is injured.
For that reason, PRK is considered to be more stable than Lasik. And it may be the only option for people who have thin corneas, dry eyes, or a condition called anterior basement membrane dystrophy. It also tends to be the preferred method for athletes and people in the military, who may be more likely to take a blow to the head.
But PRK has some drawbacks, too. Notably, it causes more pain and requires a longer healing time.
For those reasons, more people currently opt for Lasik over PRK.
But researchers say that could change if the new contacts make recovery more bearable and convenient.
"There are two big benefits," says researcher Anuj Chauhan, PhD, a chemical engineer at the University of Florida in Gainesville. "Patients don't have to remember to use the eye drops, so it increases compliance. And secondly, you don't have to use as much of the drug because most of the drug is going directly into the cornea."

This show was part of the "1997 Summer European Tour."
I'm surprised this Bowie isn't on the jam chart actually. It's pretty awesome and gets waaaaay out there and rocks pretty hard, and they don't reel it back in till past the 17 minute mark. I know this isn't exactly contrarian of me to say this, but I absolutely love the 20+ min. second set opener. I wish every show featured it. And then to follow up this huge Bowie with Ghost (4th ever)? That's a solid 34 minutes of awesomeness to open the second set -- and is an especially great continuation of the momentum of the first set. Though this Ghost is longer than the previous night's, it doesn't get as wild. It sort of rolls along nicely, slowly picking up steam, and coming to what would become a typical peak around the 10 minute mark before a full band halt a minute later. Twist gives them one last chance to really shine, and for a new tune, it's extremely gratifying to hear it click for them so quickly (same goes for Ghost -- Instant Classics!). After listening to my fair share of Twists recently, I think I actually like the old opening better -- the build-up to the main riff works better than the immediate introduction and repetition of the riff that we hear in modern day versions (every version from late '99 onward AFAIK). The only thing of note from BAtR through Rocky Top is the supposed Stairway tease by Trey in Julius -- I hear it at 4:45 but I think it's one note short of being differentiated from just some standard pentatonic Julius jamming. This is a rock solid 4 star Phish show, with the best first set of the tour to date and another strong opening to the second frame. Here come the festival sets, which are typically more about fan-acquisition and song accessibility than they are about h3tty jamZ.
The first frame, on the other hand, is quite reminiscent of 8/28/12's marvelous second set, although with even more ridiculous song selection (Ain't Love Funny was only played 3 times, and I Don't Care would never be played again), and flows just as beautifully as that 3.0 masterwork. Taste opens things up and clangs along in fine Taste fashion, and then from its ending comes an eerie digital delay loop jam, Laser Floyd sound effects, and then a *weird* and funky jam that you would never hear outside Europe shows or soundchecks. It's so odd that it almost demands listening, and from that the group (surprisingly naturally) segues into a sprightly, uptempo Cities. Cities peters out in a really interesting manner, and Trey fires up Horn.
Horn acts as a neat bit of transition, as THAT song's ending goes sparse and lovely before segueing into Ain't Love Funny. Ain't Love Funny really feels like a Europe '97 kind of song, relaxed and low-key and full of interesting possibilities. And the band explores those possibilities here, as a gorgeous minor-key groove emerges (with Mike leading the way) and envelopes the crowd with surprising warmth. Fish's drumming (he is so good during this show) gets more polyrhythmic, and Limb by Limb worms its way out of the jam, a good but standard version that ends in a big arena-rock fashion and then segues into I Don't Care. I Don't Care is fine, if not particularly distinguished (no surprise it was shelved after this show), but it ends with a buzzing, almost uncomfortable, almost ambient loop jam, instruments floating in and out of the ether, yet another crazy ending to a song in a superb suite of music. A typically good Antelope closes out a monster of a set.
You shouldn't skip the second set by any means, but the first set, one of the most meticulously *crafted* sets I've ever heard Phish play, is absolutely essential listening. As always, @waxbanks says it best - this is an alternate universe Phish, one that may not have been as big as they were by the end of the decade, but one that (dare I say it?) might have turned out to be even more musically interesting. Give this show a download, and hear the road not taken.
But there's something intimate about that first set that's pretty rare for a Phish show. The outro of both Cities and Horn have an almost nostalgic feel to them. And then they hit us with the classic JJ Cale song "Ain't Love Funny" (which was a Phish debut this night). The guys stay pretty true to the original, yet leave us with a cozy and passionate feeling for the mellow mood. They then finish off the set flawlessly with a LxL > I Dont Know > Antelope.
The second set also has its moments, with a funky version of Twist as well as a fabulous Julius in which Trey hits the high note perfectly. Definitely don't pass up on this great show!

Minnesota House Democrats are planning to reveal their spending priorities for Minnesota's public schools.
House Speaker Paul Thissen and other House DFLers are holding a Tuesday press conference to roll out there education finance bill which includes funding allocations for the state's K-12 system. It's likely to be one of the most-discussed bills for the remainder of the legislative session.
House Democrats in particular have put an emphasis on the need for more state spending on education and have called for higher taxes on the state's top earners to help pay for it. Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton also wants to spend more on schools.

Holocaust Denial on Trial, Trial Judgment: Electronic Edition, by Charles GrayTable of Contents

|Irving's response: Hitler... >>
Irving's response: the scale of the killings by gassing
6.106 As I have already pointed out, Irving accepted that the object of Operation Reinhard was broadly that contended for by the Defendants. What he disputed are the Defendants' contentions as to scale of the operation and Hitler's knowledge and approval of it. As to the scale of the extermination programme, Irving's stance in regard to the question whether gas chambers were employed at the Reinhard camps for the killing of Jews and, if so, on what scale appeared to evolve during the course of the hearing. He produced documents which show that various poisonous gasses were employed by the Nazis for non-lethal purposes, in particular for the fumigation of clothing. Indeed the Nazis trained people in the use of gas for fumigation purposes. He spent some time in his own evidence and during the course of his cross-examination of Browning stressing the marked absence of documentary evidence of the gassing in contrast with the ample documentation which has survived of the execution of Jews by shooting. He pointed out that, of the many thousands of messages intercepted by the British at Bletchley elsewhere, none mentions gassing. Browning accepted that, with the exception of a few documents referring to the use of gas vans by the Einsatzgruppen and their use at Chelmno, documents do not now exist. His explanation was that Operation Reinhard was centralised and so required little communication, whereas the shooting was carried out by means of numerous local operations. He added that most of the Reinhard documents had in any event been systematically destroyed.
6.107 Irving was critical of the reliance placed by the Defendants on such documents as are said by them to cast light on the allegedly genocidal use to which the camps were put. Much time was spent in evidence and argument on discussing the meaning and true significance of a number of German words to be found in the speeches of Hitler and others and in contemporaneous documents generally. There was prolonged cross-examination of Longerich by Irving as to the meaning of certain German words which he listed in a glossary prepared for the purpose of these proceedings. Those words include ausrotten, vernichten, liquidieren, evakuieren, umsiedeln and abschieben. A considerable number of documents were scrutinised in an attempt to ascertain whether the words in question were being used or understood in a genocidal sense. Irving contended that most of these words are properly to be understood in a non-genocidal sense. Longerich's agreed that most, if not all, of these words are capable of being used in a non-genocidal sense. For example ausrotten can bear such anodyne meanings as "get rid of" or "wipe out" without connoting physical extermination. But he asserted that its usual and primary meaning is "exterminate" or "kill off", especially when applied to people or to a group of people as opposed to, for example a religion. He contended that all depends on the context in which the words are used. Another example is Umsiedlung, which can mean no more than resettlement in a ghetto but more often embraces a homicidal meaning as well. Whilst Longerich was prepared to concede that some of the words in question may be used in a non-genocidal sense in the years leading up to 1941, he argued that from about that date onwards the words are invariably used in a sinister sense to connote killing on a major scale. For instance he contends that when, in a document dated 20 February 1942 the Reichsicherheitshauptamt (RHSA) use the term Evakuierung in connection with the issuing of guidelines for the implementation of the evacuation of Jews to Auschwitz, the word is being used in a genocidal sense.
6.108 Irving was also critical of the Defendants' experts for their readiness, as he saw it, to dismiss as "euphemistic" German words which on their face are anodyne or imprecise in their connotation. Examples of such words include Sonderbehandlung (special treatment), Evakuierung (evacuation) and Umsiedlung (resettlement). According to the Defendants, such words were often employed where the writer or speaker wished either to be evasive or to speak in a coded language calculated to mislead outsiders. Browning used Event report 21 of 13 July 1941 together with a number of other similar reports to demonstrate that Sonderbehandlung was used to mean liquidation or shooting or execution. He also cited a document which refers to the Umsiedlung (resettlement) in the Kreisgebiet Brest-Litovsk of 20,000 Jews who can be shown to have been killed. Browning and Irving were in agreement that in the case of camouflage documents such as these it is necessary to take careful account of the context when deciding what these terms really signified. According to both of them, it is legitimate and indeed necessary for an historian to have regard not only to the circumstances as they existed at the time when the document came into existence but also to what happened later.
6.109 As regards the mass extermination of Jews, Irving accepted that gas vans were employed to kill Jews at camps in the east. When asked whether he accepted that at Treblinka, Sobibor and Belzec Jews were killed with gas, Irving answered that, on the basis of evidence contained in Eichmann's private papers, he accepts that there was gassing in vans at Chelmno. He said, however, that he has not seen evidence of the use of gas vans at the other camps. He maintained the position that this was a very inefficient method of killing. He also pointed out that there was some disagreement as to the way in which the poison was administered and whether it was carbon monoxide or some other form of poison. Irving also queried whether it would have been feasible to have buried so many corpses.
6.110 But in the end Irving's doubts were no more than academic. For, despite his original claim that gassing occurred on a limited basis involving the use of no more that six to eight vans, Irving, in the light of documents he had seen in the past six months, made a number of concessions. He did not quarrel with the assertion of Browning that in a period of about five weeks in 1942 97,000 were killed at Chelmno by the use of gas vans. Irving suggested that figure may be an exaggeration but he agreed that was not limited or experimental but systematic. He further agreed that the evidence established that Jewish women and children were gassed to death in vans in Semlin, near Belgrade, in 1942.
6.111 However, despite his acceptance at an earlier stage of the trial that the gassing at the Reinhard camps had been systematic and on a considerable scale, Irving cross-examined Evans on the basis that the gas vans had been used to kill Jews on a basis which was no more than experimental. Evans's evidence was that, whilst the vans were used in a transitional stage only, they were nevertheless used on a large scale.
6.112 As to the specific documents relied on by the Defendants, Irving agreed that Wetzel's letter of 25 October 1941 was concerned with liquidating Jews but stressed that, as the Defendants accept, no gas chambers were in the event constructed in Riga. Irving also noted that Wetzel was never prosecuted. Browning's explanation is that there is no evidence he did anything more than propose the construction of gas chambers.
6.113 In reliance on the remarks made by Rosenberg at a press conference on 18 November 1941 about six million Jews being "brought across the Urals", Irving argued that the primary Nazi intention was to transport them yet further to the East rather than to exterminate them. Rosenberg specifically referred to the option of expelling them to the eastern side of the Urals, so he should not be taken to have had in mind that the Jews would be killed. Longerich in reply pointed out that Rosenberg had spoken of "the biological eradication of the entirety of Jewry" at a time when 500,000 odd Soviet Jews had already been exterminated. Rosenberg was intent on exterminating the Jews by one means or another, according to Longerich, for he said:
"For this it is necessary to push them over the Urals or otherwise (my italics) eradicate them".

Insight 37
A broken heart is a badge of honor – The saddest thing I have ever heard was when one of my friends said she had never had a broken heart. What this meant is she had never been in love! If you love you will end up with at least one broken heart. Like the saying goes, "It is better to have loved and lost than to never love at all." I have had my heart broke more than once and given the chance to do it again, I would in a "heart beat." I would rather experience love and lose it than never experience it at all.

I must admit I wasn't sure about my namesake (even though he spells his name wrong), but the more I read the happier I become. The vibes I get are that we are going back to playing football and not hoofball, and all we need now are the players to execute a better style.
The three signings so far, Poleon proving he may be better than Colin gave him credit for, give me more confidence than any of Colins old men, and all we need now is a decent winger and to get the defence right as that is still looking a bit shaky. I am looking at maybe going to one or two games if funds allow, and will let you know when.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
It's looking like he has faith in White in a more attacking role, but yeah a Defender with height and a winger will be good, I think he has the defender lined up but stuttering over the price. M.O.T looking forward to the start it's been a while since i was a season ticket holder.

I was for 28 years, but can't afford it now, but if the team starts playing football I will go to the odd match, and Brighton may be one of them.
Hi Bryan. It's strange; everything "the other" Brian says and does gives me confidence yet I'm less optimistic this close season than last. I'm not pessimistic but I guess eight years of Bates' lies has made me sceptical. Two or three additional signings (including a Gradel type winger) would restore confidence... An unbeaten run in the new season would also help!
- 1 Reply to Andrew
I can understand you being less optimistic this close season as to some extent I am too.
Last year at the beginning of the season I said that the 2012-13 season was going to be one of the easier ones to escape the championship and we made a hash of it with the help of Master Bates.
This season will be a lot tougher and we will need the extra signings as the squad is still not well balanced. It will be interesting to see who Big Mac considers so essential to the squad.

Jarvinen Research Group
Students who get the opportunity to collaborate with Assistant Professor of Psychology Dr. Michael Jarvinen get to experience the field of neuroscience, a collaborative discipline that blends psychology and biology, firsthand.
Dr. Jarvinen focuses specifically on the study of brain plasticity, the ability of the brain to change with experience, using mouse models. Throughout the year including the summer months, he and his group of student researchers continue to expand upon research completed over the last few years through which they were able to identify a very specific window in development when their mouse models become blind.
Dr. Jarvinen and his students have presented their findings at conferences on a number of occasions, in addition to submitting papers based on its research for publication.

You will be missed my friends. I understand your reasons but you have both worked hard and you deserve a change. It won't be long until you will wonder when you had time to work. Good luck, and good health to you both.

Salvation Army rings bells for fundraiser
July 6, 2013
PARKERSBURG — Volunteers with the Salvation Army of Parkersburg Corps are ringing bells this month as part of the Christmas in July campaig....
What a valuable organization. I noticed there are no posts to this article. I wonder how many people are appreciative of their efforts. I was at WalMart in Marietta while adults and children collected food to replace what was stolen from the food pantry, and people were EXTREMELY generous. I know they got more than what was stolen.

More exercise at the park today. I did three sets of five assisted chin-ups and assorted other exercises, although I still have far to go before I can even make it across the monkey bars. W- and J- beat me every single time: running, climbing poles... Must remind myself that I shouldn't feel bad that they're fitter than I am. <laugh> Will instead focus on getting better!
We watched the Dream in High Park performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream. The mechanicals' play-within-a-play was hilarious! J- loved it, and so did W- and I. This production's Puck was a terrific acrobat and he was so much fun to watch. And the fight scene between the four lovers—that was awesome!
I heart AMND.
Tomorrow: tea party, write article for Booksnake, start planning my own get-together...

It will take more to fix Seven Falls
Published: Thursday, May 9, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, May 8, 2013 at 8:32 p.m.
Halting the flow of mud washing off the bankrupt Seven Falls development should have been done years ago. Now, thanks to action by Superior Court Judge Zoro J. Guice Jr., work can finally begin.
After viewing a video of the degraded conditions at the 1,300-acre site, Guice on Monday granted Henderson Countys request to use up to $262,000 in bond proceeds to start repairing the worst erosion problems.
County Attorney Russ Burrell asked the court for permission to use a portion of the $6 million performance bond forfeited by developers. Estimates to finish roads and other infrastructure have risen to $8.4 million, $2.4 million more than the bonded amount.
The property was reported in a state of advanced deterioration in July 2010, but nothing has been done since then to keep it from getting worse. The situation is being made worse by a very wet spring, with rainfall running close to 6 inches above normal since April 1.
We know its going to cost far more than $262,000 to repair the mess developer Keith Vinson left when he halted work on the planned grandiose golfing community. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has threatened to block work on new stream crossings unless the county pays $800,000 to repair damage to streams and wetlands off the site. The N.C. Division of Water Quality blocked permits for the county to continue roadwork unless fines assessed to Vinson for stormwater violations are paid.
The Corps revoked Vinsons 2008 permit that allowed him to install culverts and bridges along streams after he failed to mitigate their impacts. Unfortunately, he installed most of those impacts anyway, so we requested that those illegal impacts come out, said Scott Jones, chief of the Corps Asheville field office, in February.
For the county to get a new permit, the Corps estimates it would cost about $1.13 million to purchase stream credits from the state to offset impacts of culverts and other alterations along 3,100 feet of streams in Seven Falls. In addition, engineer Bill Lapsley estimated stream restoration projects required by the state will cost about $200,000.
Vinsons track record on Seven Falls has been terrible. However, he is right when he says it will take more than the $262,000 that Guice approved to repair erosion on the property. Vinson estimates it will cost $340,975. These costs are only to clean out sediment traps and seed and stabilize the worst eroding areas. They dont include the bigger job of restoring once clear-flowing trout streams on and off the site. Either figure represents a Band-Aid when major surgery is whats really needed.
Given the need to get moving before things get any worse, however, Guice did the right thing by approving the $262,000 and requiring the county to get court approval for additional money. If work isnt started soon and heavy rains continue, we could have a Grand Canyon out there, the judge noted. The county must now play catch-up to assure that doesnt happen.

The five county CEE-IV Drug Task Force will be hosting a parent and student forum to educate the community on common drug trends and mental health needs of adolescents at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, April 24 in the YME Auditorium.
"The hope is that parents are aware of the challenges adolescents face and are informed of the supportive resources in the area so they are able to better support their children. The parents knowledge and support will encourage the student's success," said YME Social Worker Charlynn Dahl.
Dan Gentile, of Woodland Centers in Willmar, is expected to be in attendance to discuss how students struggle with mental health issues, which may affect their functioning at home, in the community, and at school. He will also be discussing the importance of healthy sleep patterns and the effects of sleep deprivation. The forum is open to all parents and students in grades 6-12.

The first set is full of gems, like a Llama with a raging jam, a funky, powerful Wolfman's and an oddity like Quinn the Eskimo.
But set II is where it get sublime. The Tweezer melts in slow motion funk into Page's cover of On Your Way Down, with was a bust out and sung beautifully. The Piper that follows just might be THE PIPER of 1999 although 12/8/99 and 7/18/99 are both great also. This song just turned into this dervish like energy vortex that just raged for decades of time.
Also, it doesn't hurt that an amazing FOB recording circulates.
