(J) Misrepresentation of reliable sources: the reports to the British Foreign Office
1. Irving tries hard to twist the sources in such a way as to make it appear that Goebbels was virtually the only Nazi leader in favour of the pogrom. He manipulates the historical record to suggest that Himmler, Heydrich, Hitler, Lutze and others opposed the pogrom or even tried to stop it. As part of this strategy, He also suggests that Goebbels was completely isolated in the aftermath of the pogrom. Irving falsely suggests that Hitler distanced himself from Goebbels, and that Goebbels had been on the verge of a nervous breakdown. In another manipulation of the historical record, Irving also claims that 'Dr Goebbels found himself a pariah in official Berlin' and that 'Foreign diplomats reported that Goebbels now outranked both Ribbentrop and Himmler in unpopularity'.143
2. Irving's first claim is based, according to his footnotes, on a report by the British Ambassador in Berlin to the Foreign Office.144 But, in a lapse typical of Irving's historical standards, when we turn to this document, there is no reference in it to Goebbels being a 'pariah' in Berlin.145 In any case, we have already seen that Hitler visited the theatre with Goebbels on 15 November 1938 in Berlin. Three days previously, Goebbels had actively taken part in the conference chaired by Göring in Berlin, where many officials from various party and state offices were represented - hardly a sign of Goebbels 'pariah' status.
3. Irving's second claim is based, according to his footnotes, on the following documents in a file in the Public Record Office in Kew: 'Memos from W.W. Astor, Nov 9; British consulate in Vienna to Ogilvie-Forbes, Nov 25; memo by Capt. J. McLaren, Nov 29; minute by W. Ridsdale, Dec 6, 1938'.146 However, these documents again fail to support Irving's claims. In his memorandum, Astor only states that Goebbels 'equals von Ribbentrop in unpopularity' and, in any case, this document was written before 'Kristallnacht'.147 The British Consulate in Vienna makes no reference at all in its communication of 25 November 1938 to Goebbels's unpopularity.148 The memorandum by Captain McLaren similarly does not contain the content attributed to it by Irving. Also, McLaren was not a diplomat, though Irving claims he was.149 And the Ridsdale minutes also fail to support Irving's assertions. They refer to information received by a British Foreign official in London from the French Embassy (presumably in London), which in turn drew on information received from the French Embassy in Berlin, reviewing the German political situation. According to this (third-hand) information, which Ridsdale received from a M. Maillaud, 'Ribbentrop, Goebbels and Himmler, in that order, would apparently be at the head of any public Hate Ballot in Germany at the moment'.150
4. These particular inaccuracies and misrepresentations might appear trivial. However, if seen in the context of the great number of similar lapses and misrepesentations of documents, they further undermine any claim by Irving to be take serious as a dilligent historian. All too often, Irving provides inaccurate references or no source references at all. And if the documents referred to by Irving can be traced, it is often revealed that he manipulated, misrepresented or misread them.

Benjamin Duke's large-scale figurative paintings emerge out of the artist's self-described dual interest in formal and conceptual ideas of identity. The artist's enigmatic, psychological work draws us into a narrative surrounding how we negotiate our own ideas of individuality in an environment predicated upon shared space, experience, and multi-sensory input. The figure-ground relationship provides a recognizable context for his images of an inner world made up of cartoons. Appearing in dystopian urban and suburban landscapes, hallucinatory clusters of colorful and fantastic figures suggest the artist's fascination with an idiosyncratic world full of tangential thought and perceptual distortion. The effect is one in which familiar imagery is bound to a metaphorically unbounded psychic field.
Duke begins each painting by drawing invented abstract shapes on the canvas, which he later fills in with representational figures and forms painted from life. He allows for spontaneous compositions while maintaining a visual balance between color and the weight of his chosen forms. Enter the Dragon reflects his fascination with mythology and the concept of "reorganizing" archetypal imagery. Stating that the core of identity exists between individuals, Duke's work creates a compelling reflection on feelings of displacement and the competing internal and external voices influencing our sense of self in the modern world.

How can I become a mod /Do mods and admins give credits?
Those are the 3 most common questions I received on the chat lobby, by pm or in my inbox everydays!
For the first one…How to become a moderator for Uberstrike?
There's no magical tricks and even if you say Pleasssse! it won't help!
The administrators choose the moderators. They choose them by looking on how they are helping the other players on the forum, their knowledges of the game and how they can help the others to solve issues with the other players or technical problems. The administrators are looking for mature and experienced players.
So, participate activly on the forum, be polite with the other players, avoid warnings and bad attitudes and maybe, I said maybe, the administrators will notice you!
For the second question… Do moderators and administrators give credits, guns or anything else?
The answer is pretty simple NO!
The only way to receive free stuff is to win them by participating in the contests, tourneys or any other promotions Uberstrike will do.

Controlling and monitoring impurities in APIs and finished drug products is a crucial issue in drug development and manufacturing. Part I of this article, published in the February 2012 issue of Pharmaceutical Technology, discussed the various types of and sources of impurities with specific case studies (1). Part II, published in the March 2012 issue, examined chiral, polymorphic, and genotoxic impurities (2). In Part III, the authors examine various degradation routes of APIs, impurities arising from API–excipient interaction during formulation, metabolite impurities, various analytical methodologies to measure impurity levels, and ways to control impurities in pharmaceuticals.
Definition of impurity
The term impurity reflects unwanted chemicals that are present in APIs or that develop during formulation or upon aging of the API in the formulated drug product. The presence of such unwanted material, even in small amounts, could affect the efficacy and safety of pharmaceutical products. Several guidelines from the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) address impurities in new drug substances, drug products, and residual solvents (3–6). As per the ICH guidelines on impurities in new drug products, impurities present below a 0.1% level do not need to be qualified unless the potential impurities are expected to be unusually potent or toxic (5). In all other cases, impurities should be qualified. If the impurities exceed the threshold limits and data are not available to qualify the proposed specification level, studies to obtain such data may be required. Several recent articles describe a designed approach and guidelines for isolation and identification of process-related impurities and degradation products using mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy for pharmaceutical substances (7–9).Degradation-related impurities
Degradation products could result from the synthesis itself, storage, formulation of the dosage form, and aging (11). These degradation pathways are further discussed.
Synthesis-related impurities. Impurities in a drug substance or a new chemical entity originate mainly during the synthetic process from raw materials, solvents, intermediates, and byproducts. The raw materials are generally manufactured to much lower purity requirements than a drug substance, and thus, it is easy to understand why they can contain a number of components that can in turn affect the purity of the drug substance.

"The People are asleep my darling"
So she'd tell him;
He, too,
Was careful not to wake the People,
To endure its dreams
Like a kid's kicks,
To ape its slack tongue like a fool,
To crawl before it on all fours
That he might tell it the story of creation…
— Mohab Nasr (translated by Robin Moger)
Two and a half years after the January 25, 2011 uprising, I'm with my friend Aboulliel in the room I still have at my parents' house. We're slurping Turkish coffee and dragging on Marlboros, absorbed in conversation, when suddenly it feels as if we've been on the same topic since we sat here for the first time in 1998 or 1999: what should Egypt's army-dominated government do about the Islamists' sit-ins?
There are two of them, each thousands-strong, in Rabaa Al-Adawiya Mosque and Al-Nahda squares (east and west Cairo), the latter within walking distance of Dokky, where this apartment is located. They are crippling Cairo's hobbling traffic and, as a security hazard, blocking the inflow of much needed tourist cash. They include all kinds of adherent of political Islam: Salafist, Jihadist, Jihadist-Salafist, Muslim Brother, renegade Muslim Brother and independently operating Islamist. And they've been going on for nearly 40 days, immobilizing the middle-class residential community of Rabaa and taunting the Cairo University students and faculty shuffling about campus near Al-Nahda. Their "defense committees" function like checkpoints, with club-wielding men searching baggage and reviewing IDs. Amnesty International has corroborated reports by independent local news channels like OnTV and CBC that "spies" caught inside them were secretly buried after having their fingers chopped off, among other atrocities. The media claims that each garrison harbors hardcore weaponry, and machine guns have been sighted in use against pro-army citizens who picked fights with protesters marching through their neighborhoods…

Paul Davis is a name that may not be the most recognizable by the general public in the music industry, even for people of his hometown of Meridian. But nearly everyone knows some of his hit songs.
"If you take Paul Davis' biography, it's going to be very small," said Van Mac of WOKK/The Radio People. "If you start stacking up his contributions to the music industry, it's very large. It's funny; he had so many hit records and the average person might not even know who Paul Davis is."
Davis released eight albums in his career with six singles reaching the top 20 on the Adult Contemporary charts, his highest being "Cool Night" which reached number two.
Mac said some of his fondest memories of Davis were when he was on stage for singer/songwriter nights at the Jimmie Rodgers Festival. Mac only knew Davis on a professional basis, but knew how to get on the man's good side.
"I guess the last time I saw Paul was on the golf course. If you wanted to influence him to come and do an event with you, say 'come and play golf,' and Paul would probably be there," Mac said.
Throughout the day, stations in The Radio People family honored Paul Davis' memory by playing some of his hits.
"Paul Davis, a singer/songwriter with a little bit of country influence, but with pop songs from the 60s and 70s that gave us great songs kind of like this one that we are going to start our double shot with, as we pay tribute to a Meridian legend. This is a double shot for Paul Davis on 106.9 The Buzz," said announcer Scott Stevens on 106.9 the Buzz.
Davis passed away at Rush Hospital from a heart attack. He was 60 years old.
His hit "I Go Crazy" reached Number 7 on the Billboard Top 100 Charts, and remained in the Top 100 for an incredible 40 weeks.
His songs "Cool Night," and "'65 Love Affair" also reached the Top 10 in 1981 and 1982, respectively.
Six of his recordings reached into the Top 10 on either the Billboard or Country charts. Davis was inducted into the Jimmie Rodgers Hall of Fame in Meridian in 1987.

Phil Palisoul dreamed of becoming a comedian since he was 12, but it took the end of his first marriage before he finally pursued that dream. It wasn't that he hit rock bottom - that he had nothing left to lose - but, rather, his newfound lack of responsibility."When I was married, I always felt like I needed to make a living and be responsible," Palisoul said. "I always felt like it was an out-of-reach dream."Palisoul, who lives in Denver, started by going to Comedy Works' open mic nights. He likens the experience to fishing. "I got my first laugh onstage and I was absolutely hooked." He wasn't sure where comedy would lead him, but Palisoul knew then he had to find out.For the past two decades, Palisoul - who has since remarried - has made a career out of comedy. He loves the pressure of performing well night after night, the direct connection with his audience and the camaraderie."Every joke has a victim," he said. "I prefer to victimize myself in a joke. Then, if you recognize yourself in my joke, you don't feel victimized, you feel a camaraderie."Palisoul, who has been featured on "The Tonight Show," and his friend and fellow comedian, Bryan Kellen, who has performed on "Lopez Tonight," will perform at Silverthorne's annual Valentine's comedy show on Thursday. Though their routines aren't necessarily specific to Valentine's Day, you can expect a lot of laughs over love and relationships."Valentine's Day is kind of like New Year's Eve," Palisoul said. "All the excitement of the year is put into one day and no matter how you live that day out, it's not going to live up to what you think it (should be), because it can't."Which makes comedy the perfect date on Valentine's Day. Instead of a night of high expectations and bitter disappointments, "you show up, you sit down, you laugh your ass off and then you go home.""Laughing together is great for all relationships," said Kellen, who plans to talk about "being in love and all the crazy things we do to stay there."In contrast to Palisoul's self-deprecating style, Kellen is known as a physical comedian - using his body as much as his words to make people laugh. "I have always been a goofy guy," he said, "I move strangely while telling stories."Kellen's advice for Valentine's Day? "You need to start slow. Don't get her three dozen roses and diamond earrings the first year. If you do, by the third year, she'll expect a Beemer in the driveway. The first year, get her a $12 bracelet that turns her wrist green and work up from there."

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Friday, Jan. 25, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- As the gun debate in America continues, gun enthusiasts in Augusta are getting together this weekend for their annual gun show. Setup started Friday for the weekend event.
They say at all of their gun shows in the past month, everything has been on the rise. Attendance, prices and sales are all up, and they don't expect this weekend to be any different.
"It's been chaos," said dealer Ed Moreaux. "It's been making people pretty wealthy over night."
Moreaux has been dealing guns for five years. He sells everything military from toys and jewelry to guns and ammunition.
"It's been a really good market for the ammo business, the guns, and for us, too -- our toys and anything that has to do with military memorabilia," Moreaux said.
In fact, it's been so good he's having trouble keeping guns and ammo on the table.
"You just can't get them," he explained. "People are gobbling them up at three times what they're really worth."
With recent threats of stricter gun legislation, gun show attendance is up, prices are up and sales are through the roof.
"It's hard to keep ammo in stock for a lot of these guys," said Gunrunner Shows CEO Larry Steverson. "A lot don't have any in stock. The assault weapons are drying up, even though the price had doubled and tripled on some of them, but we still had some for this weekend."
He says if you want any type of assault weapon, come early because they'll sell fast.
"By the end of the day Saturday there's bare spots on these gun dealers' tables," Steverson said.
With 40 dealers, more than 200 tables will be filled with all sorts of guns, knives and ammunition.
"You name it, it's pretty much here," Steverson said.
By the end of the weekend, Stevenson says he expects almost every gun and round of ammo will be gone.
"It's fear that they won't be able to get them anymore," he said.
It's something Ed has seen firsthand. Two weeks ago he had 30,000 to 40,000 rounds of ammunition and now he only has 3,000 left.
"We don't have as much as we did," Moreaux said. "We're getting shorter, but yeah, we have some left this weekend."
They are expecting 5,000 to 6,000 people this weekend. The show runs from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday at the fairgrounds on Hale Street.

SANTA CLARA -- Jon Busch needed a moment after the Earthquakes' dismal 1-0 defeat Wednesday night to Chivas USA.
The usually talkative goalkeeper buried his hands in his head at his locker as he reflected on San Jose's third consecutive 1-0 defeat in Major League Soccer play. That pretty much sums up that state of the somber San Jose locker room these days.
If the Earthquakes (4-7-4) haven't hit the bottom yet then it's going to get ugly. Real ugly. "This is one we needed," Busch said. "We knew that."
The regular season doesn't end until October, but it feels as if it is slipping away after a lackluster result in front of an announced crowd of 9,114 at Buck Shaw Stadium.
"We're a very disappointed group right now," coach Mark Watson said. "We've got to figure out a way to turn things around."
Watson hinted for the first time the team is searching for help when the FIFA transfer window opens next week. But overall, team officials say they have enough quality players -- if they could keep them healthy. Injuries contributed to the problems Wednesday as starting center back Clarence Goodson (groin) and midfielders Shea Salinas (abdominal) and Atiba Harris (hamstring) were unavailable.
"It feels like we're always trying to scramble to put things together," Watson said.
The team did not show enough spark to break out of its slump and this time fell to lowly Chivas USA while dropping to the bottom of the Western Conference. The defeat allowed Chivas (4-7-5) to move into eighth place in the nine-team division.
For the third consecutive game, an opponent patiently waited for San Jose to implode. The downhill slide continued in the 52nd minute with a defensive breakdown that led to Erick Torres' 11th goal of the season. Torres, from Mexico, collected a serve from Mauro Rosales in front of the goal when defenders failed shift with the ball. He blew it past Busch inside the near post. Torres is now tied for the second-most goals in MLS with Dom Dwyer of Sporting Kansas City. Bradley Wright-Phillips of New York Red Bulls leads with 12.
"It seems one play is the difference," Busch said of the consecutive shutouts.
The veteran keeper who is enjoying a standout season dismissed the notion that lineup changes have caused the current mess. "It doesn't matter," he said. "We've got enough quality in this locker room. I don't care who is injured, who is healthy. Us players have to find a way to get results."
The Quakes had better possession against Chivas than last weekend against the Galaxy. But San Jose failed to put Chivas goalkeeper Dan Kennedy under much pressure. The Quakes need leading scorer Chris Wondolowski, who has been with the U.S. World Cup team since mid-May. San Jose fell to 2-4 without its captain.
But not even Wondolowski can save this group unless it figures out how to penetrate an opposing midfield.
"Everyone in here is frustrated," center back Ty Harden said. "But this team never gives up."
The defender who got his sixth consecutive start did the math. "We're only six points out of a playoff spot," Harden added. "There's no reason we can't make a run."

Lawmakers to detail state spending cuts
State finance chief to update appropriations committee
Lawmakers will be getting more details this afternoon on Gov. Paul LePage's curtailment plan to cut more than $35 million in state spending.
State finance commissioner Sawin Millett will be speaking to the legislature's appropriations committee on Thursday afternoon.
Millett briefed the committee on the curtailment plan last week but lawmakers had follow-up questions.
The state Department of Education and Department of Health and Human Services are bearing the brunt of the governor's curtailment cuts because those two departments make up a big chunk of Maine's state budget.
Administration officials have described the cuts as "fair and equitable."

Ewer : scenes from the story of Jason and the Golden Fleece
Invented in Limoges in the late 15th century, the technique of painted enamel experienced remarkable growth there in the following century.
This delicate work consists of superimposing layers of enamel (a silica-based product similar to glass) on a copper plaque, working them with paintbrush and spatula like in painting, or with a needle (to scratch away the surface and reveal an underlying layer which is lighter or darker). The most prized forms are display items without any practical use – ewers, bowls, plates and saltcellars.
The iconography of this ewer is inspired by illustrations from the Livre de la Conqueste de la Toison d'or [The book of the quest for the Golden Fleece], published in Paris in 1563 and engraved by René Boyvin based on drawings by Léonard Thiry. Jason, the famous hero of antiquity, sets off on a quest to find the Golden Fleece which leads him to meet Medea with whom he has a love affair ending in tragedy.
The ewer displays the rich palette of colours used circa 1600 by the enamellers of Limoges.

"Enhanced Supervised Visitation has helped me in many ways with my twin boys. We have my visit every Tuesday which helps me bond with my children. During my visits with my boys I read to them and play in the play kitchen with them showing them how to make different foods. The boys love to color on the chalkboard and I make it educational for them as well by showing them how to write their names, letters, and numbers. They like to play with the cars and trucks and dance to the music which the staff provides. EAC Network has taken my children and me on various community outings during our visits – restaurants, the park and the pool when the weather was nice. Working with Enhanced Supervised Visitation has taught me a lot in regards to becoming a parent. I am more aware of my children's developmental needs and picking up on their cues. EAC has helped me to become more responsible and also to know that I can do things on my own without help. They have given me support and have been there for me when I was going through tough times and felt I had no one in my corner. When I was struggling to buy Christmas gifts for my children EAC Network stepped in and helped me by donating toys enabling me to give my children the Christmas that they deserve. EAC Network provides safe and reliable transportation for my children and a safe and clean place for my visits to take place. I am thankful to EAC Network for all of their hard work and patience with working with me and my children." – R.L.
Enhanced Supervised Visitation assists children in dealing with the trauma of foster care placement through supervised visits with their parents. At the same time, Family Coaches help parents with concrete parenting skill development and permanency planning goals designed to facilitate the child(ren)'s return home. Goals for the family's participating in the program are developed with the parents, foster parents, caseworker and EAC Network staff.
Initial visits between parents and children take place at EAC Network's facility in Ronkonkoma. As parents make progress, visits move from facility-based to community-based, with the final step of in-home supervised visits as the family moves toward reunification. Feedback is provided to parents and DSS as the family moves through the program.

R.W. Apple, longtime and beloved political Oct 04 2006
R.W. Apple, longtime and beloved political and food writer for the NY Times, died early this morning aged 71. "In the interests of efficiency, The New York Times recently equipped its main office with...a 185-pound, water-cooled, self-propelled, semi-automatic machine called R. W. Apple Jr." Here's Apple's last piece for the Times, on the cuisine of Singapore.
Update: The NY Times put up a piece that Apple filed right before he entered the hosptial that they were going to run later in the fall: The Global Gourmand.
Update: Ed Levine wrote a nice personal remembrance of Apple. See also Trillin's article on Apple from the New Yorker.

OAKLAND -- A security guard company tied to the defunct Your Black Muslim Bakery made grand claims about its credentials to win a job patrolling two parks at the Port of Oakland, but an investigation by this newspaper shows the proposal is littered with falsehoods.
As part of its list of qualifications, BMT International Security Services listed four government contracts that do not exist, people speaking for those agencies said, including purported work for BART and the San Joaquin County Housing Authority. The firm also included resume information for its officers, ranging from a Harvard education to membership in various law enforcement organizations, that is contradicted by the organizations listed.
The port commission voted late last year to award BMT, the low bidder, a $450,000 contract to patrol more than 40 acres of waterfront. Deputy Port Director Jean Banker told commissioners at the time that the bidders had been subjected to a "thorough, objective" evaluation process. The port is conducting a further "due diligence" examination of BMT as it negotiates the final terms of the deal.
Port spokeswoman Marilyn Sandifur declined to discuss this newspaper's findings or make Banker or Executive Director J. Christopher Lytle available for interviews. BMT owner Rory Parker did not return messages.
Earlier this month, the Oakland City Council rejected a BMT proposal to guard City Hall after this newspaper reported the company won an Alameda County contract in 2012 based on what turned out to be false insurance and licensing documents. That deal was terminated less than a year later, after the county became aware of some of the irregularities.
The Housing Authority of the city of Los Angeles also terminated its contract with BMT on Thursday after this newspaper's findings caused the agency to reexamine the firm. BMT submitted fraudulent insurance certification last year to win part of a $5.5 million contract to guard public housing, said spokeswoman Annie Kim.
BMT is run from a temple on 27th Street in Oakland called Elijah's University. Temple leader Dahood Sharieff Bey is a disciple of bakery founder and former mayoral candidate Yusuf Bey, who died in 2003. Yusuf Bey touted his bakery as an advocacy organization for African-American self help, but prosecutors have called it a cult that ran a wide-ranging criminal enterprise, committing crimes from real estate and mortgage fraud to murder.
The bakery collapsed in 2007 after Yusuf Bey's son, Yusuf Bey IV, ordered the murders of three men including journalist Chauncey Bailey, who was working on a story about the group. Bey IV is now serving a life sentence in prison. He has appealed.
No port documents list Dahood Bey as a BMT executive, but he has represented the firm at public meetings, and another former bakery member, Nedir Bey, has spoken in support of it. Nedir Bey was head of a bakery home-health aide business, EM Health, that borrowed more than $1 million from the city of Oakland and closed a year later without repaying the money.
Dahood Bey's mother, Parker, owns BMT but recently said publicly she is too ill to run it.
Another former bakery associate, Basheer Muhammad, also known as Benjamin Jones, is BMT's most public voice. He is listed as the company's operations officer. Muhammad and Dahood Bey were tried together for torture in 2010 and pleaded guilty to lesser charges when the jury could not reach a verdict. Muhammad was also convicted of false imprisonment in 1994.
BMT's 14-page proposal to the port paints itself as an amply qualified firm, with employees and directors who are former "U.S. Marshals, Navy Seals, and Secret Service Agents all of whom specialize in tactical planning." It continues, "BMT serves over 43 cities along the coast of California, spanning from Chico to San Diego."
That contention, which suggests a firm with a substantial workforce, is at odds with what a port staff member told commissioners in December: BMT would not have to abide by the port's minimum-wage rules because "they are a very small business with less than 21 employees."
The firm's claims about individual employees are also problematic.
BMT says on its website and in documents submitted to the port that its chief financial officer, David Johnson, was an FBI agent, a "military marshal" and holds a bachelor's degree from Harvard in criminal justice, a major the university does not offer. An FBI spokeswoman could not say if Johnson worked at the bureau because the name is so common.
Johnson is also described in BMT's port proposal as on the board of the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Foundation in Florida. "I've never heard of him," the foundation's director, Stephen Moss, said last week. A trade group, the American Society for Industrial Security, also has no record of either Johnson or BMT, despite the firm's claims of membership.
A copy of Johnson's resume submitted in 2011 to Alameda County doesn't mention the FBI or Harvard -- it says he has a finance degree from Golden Gate University and worked for a San Diego bank.
Another company executive, Barbara Goodman, is described as the former president and a current board member of the Florida Juvenile Justice Association. But the current director, Cathy Craig-Myers, e-mailed Saturday that she "looked back as far as 1993, which is the year the association was formed. No Barbara Goodman."
Johnson was also purported to be the project supervisor of security teams that served as "campus guards" at La Escuelita and Montclair elementary schools in Oakland. The company said it assigned 20 guards to La Escuelita, all of them with "extensive training in juvenile relations" and who were required to speak fluent "Spanish, Portuguese and Andalusian Spanish," a dialect spoken in Gibraltar.
But Oakland Unified School District spokesman Troy Flint said Monday that the district has never employed BMT directly, as BMT claimed. However, the firm did work as a subcontractor for a construction company hired by the district and guarded construction sites at those schools, he said.
Other government agencies listed in BMT's proposal also said they never hired the company.
"We have no record of them," said Brad Weaver of the Riverside Transit Authority in Southern California.
Searches of BART records for any BMT contracts "all came up empty," said spokesman Jim Allison.
"We have nothing on them at all," said Alan Coon, a lawyer for the Housing Authority of San Joaquin County.
The city of San Ramon also had no record of BMT.
BMT also said it provided security for unnamed "transit agencies" in Mexico City. It claimed, too, that it had several certifications from the U.S. Department of Transportation, including one that allows it to use armored vehicles. The agency does not certify armored vehicles or security companies, spokesman Ryan Daniels said.
Some of BMT's stated work experience in its port submission was true, including the Los Angeles housing contract. BMT has also guarded Bay Area construction sites, chain stores, an Oakland senior home and a Marin City community center, according to employers who hired and recommended them.
At least two port commissioners were skeptical of BMT's bid initially, primarily for financial reasons. Michael Colbruno was the lone dissenting vote when the commission approved giving BMT the contract in November, and said last week he was worried the numbers "didn't add up."
He and Commissioner Victor Uno later proposed rescinding the contract, arguing the firm's bid was so low it would be impossible for BMT to pay its workers the port's living wage while also covering overhead and making a profit. Parker, acting as her own attorney, then sued the port and the port commission, alleging discrimination.
Then, on Dec. 19, BMT lined the port board meeting with politically connected supporters, including construction company executive Len Turner, San Francisco trucking contractor Charlie Walker and Nedir Bey.
The doubtful commissioners dropped their objections and Parker later dropped her suit. Now, however, port attorneys are taking a closer look.
"To the port's credit, they are doing their due diligence," Colbruno said.

Deportation waiver process becomes campaign issue
As the federal government continues issuing its first round of deportation waivers to certain unauthorized immigrants, supporters and critics of the much-debated program are weighing presidential candidate Mitt Romney's pledge to halt the program if he wins office.
The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program grants a two-year reprieve from deportation to eligible applicants, with possible renewal, and allows them to seek a job permit. People must be 18 to 30 years old and have arrived in the U.S. before they turned 16. They also must have graduated from high school or college, have no criminal record and meet other criteria.
An estimated 1.3 million individuals nationwide could qualify, including more than 400,000 in California — the highest count of any state.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services said it had received nearly 180,000 applications and approved 4,591 as of Oct. 10, the most recent tally available. The agency does not provide regional breakdowns, but several immigration lawyers in San Diego County said some clients have gotten their exemptions.
In recent days, Romney has said that as president he would cancel Deferred Action but honor work permits already granted by the Obama administration. Some Republicans back his proposal, others want him to continue the program amid a Congress deadlocked on immigration issues and still others urge him to not only end the program but also rescind all approvals.
Deferred Action "is still a bad idea," said Peter Nunez of San Diego, a former U.S. attorney here and a vocal opponent of allowing any residency reprieve for people who are in the United States without permission. "Nothing that Obama or (Gov. Jerry) Brown have done changes the reality that they are rewarding illegal immigration, the worst part of which is that it encourages more illegal immigration."
Last month, Brown signed legislation allowing those who receive Deferred Action waivers to obtain driver's licenses in the state.
In downtown San Diego, immigration attorney Lilia Velasquez said she has filed about 90 Deferred Action applications and that a handful have been approved.
She and some other lawyers are encouraging people who seem to meet all the requirements and want to apply to do so as soon as possible.
"Students who have clean cases should not wait until the end of the year, just in case Romney is elected," Velasquez said.
Pedro Rios of the American Friends Service Committee in San Diego said the group's staff is contacting people on a waiting list from its August workshop session about Deferred Action — to see how many of them still need help.
The nonprofit organization is stopping short of advising potential applicants to file sooner or later.
"If there is significant concern, then perhaps it might be best to wait," Rios said. "I think they have to be as well informed as they can be and decide for themselves if it makes sense."
President Barack Obama announced the Deferred Action program in June, and the application period began in mid-August. The evaluation time is running one to two months, but immigration experts and federal officials expect the process to take longer once more applications are filed.
Immigrant advocates have lauded the program as a sign of progress after Congress repeatedly rejected the DREAM Act. That legislation would have provided legal residency and a pathway to U.S. citizenship for young people who meet certain restrictions, while Deferred Action does not allow naturalization.
Critics of Deferred Action have said Obama was wrong to bypass Congress in what they saw as a political move to gain Latino votes in the November election. They are pushing for more comprehensive changes to the nation's immigration laws, including measures to further increase security along the United States' borders and bolster programs to find and deport the undocumented.

Legislature Should Require a Pre-Audit of High-Value Contracts
Published: Friday, February 15, 2013 at 12:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, February 14, 2013 at 11:59 p.m.
Last fiscal year, my office conducted 600 audits of contracts and agreements and found that 276 did not contain common-sense contracting standards — that's 46 percent. Considering this sampling, we are faced with the potential that nearly $23 billion could be at risk because of poorly written or badly managed contracts.
I am calling for the Legislature to require a pre-audit of high-value contracts to ensure that they contain elements that protect taxpayer dollars such as a precise scope of work, clearly defined deliverables, minimum performance standards and financial consequences for failure to deliver goods and services.
I am advocating for consistent elements in all agreements and across-the-board standards for training those who execute agreements on the state's behalf. If we can correct these errors on the front end, we can ensure that the promised goods and services are delivered at the best value for Florida taxpayers.
The goal of these reforms is to promote value, integrity, transparency, accountability and public confidence in the state's contracting processes, which are lacking in the current system.
Last year, my office launched a web-based transparency tool called the Florida Accountability Contract Tracking System to allow citizens to search and review state contracts online. We can continue to improve transparency and accountability by implementing these common-sense reforms to our state contracting processes.
Just as families in Florida are mindful of the money they spend, your government has an obligation to do the same. Wasted dollars will not be tolerated; all state contracts should reflect the highest ethical and fiscal standards — clear, consistent and measurable.

Obama to Raise Money in L.A.; Romney Campaigns in Florida
After reporting $181 million in fundraising for September, a monthly record for any candidate this election cycle, President Barack Obama heads to the West Coast on Sunday to raise more campaign cash for the final four weeks of the campaign.
Mr. Obama's trip to Los Angeles and San Francisco marks one of his final fundraising swings before the Nov. 6 vote.
The president has asked for money from California Democrats so often since taking office that his first stop in Los Angeles is a reception with the party's other powerhouse, former President Bill Clinton, to thank a dozen high-dollar donors.
The event isn't meant to raise any additional money, an Obama campaign spokeswoman said. But the president is expected to raise at least $9.5 million from five other events–two in L.A. and three in San Francisco.
Obama campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki said his aides "need every last dollar" to wage an aggressive campaign in the final weeks leading up to the election.
Mr. Obama's Republican opponent, Mitt Romney, is campaigning Sunday in Florida, the nation's largest battleground state.
Both candidates will fly to Ohio on Tuesday, the last day residents in that swing state can register to vote.
Mr. Romney will hold an event in Cuyahoga Falls with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.
Mr. Obama will appear at Ohio State University to encourage college students–a voting bloc that helped elect him in 2008–to register and urge his supporters to vote immediately.
Early voting began in Ohio last week.
Mr. Obama holds a lead over Mr. Romney in Ohio, according to public opinion surveys. But given his lackluster performance in last week's first presidential debate, his campaign is closely monitoring the state for signs of voter movement toward Mr. Romney.
"It's game time in Ohio," Ms. Psaki said.
The president got a boost Friday with the release of the government's monthly jobs report that showed the unemployment rate dropping to 7.8%.
On Sunday Mr. Obama will appear at a fundraising rally in Los Angeles at the Nokia Theatre, where Jon Bon Jovi, Earth Wind and Fire, Stevie Wonder, Katy Perry and Jennifer Hudson will perform, according to the Obama campaign.
San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro, the keynote speaker at the Democratic National Convention, and actor George Clooney will deliver remarks ahead of Mr. Obama's speech.
In San Francisco on Monday, Mr. Obama will headline events where tickets cost $40,000 and $20,000. A larger event will feature performances by John Legend and Michael Franti for $200 a person.

The Sexiest 2012 Summer Olympians
Gloria and Emilio Estefan
We call these two the veterans. The two Cubanos have been married an amazing 34 years. Gloria, who prides herself on being an inspiration and icon to Latinas around the globe—says it all: Emilio is her world, her first and only love. "We are partners in everything. Emilio has been there for me and I've been there for him. It's been a great balance," she told Latina.
Shakira and Gerard Piqué
When one of the hottest Colombianas on the planet teams up with a sexy Barcelona-born soccer star, we probably wouldn't question how they keep their love alive. (Dios mio that's a hot couple!) But maybe it's about being confident in your love life and sharing it to the world. Shakira announced their relationship over Twitter this year, posting a cute pic of the two and tweeting "Les presento a mi sol." We wouldn't be ashamed to show off a guapo like that either!

Excellent product, perfect fitment, great price and fast shipping! Motorsport is my one-stop shop for all of toys!!!!!
Fit was good, brass fittings were better than OEM nylon bushings. Overall part was upgrade from OEM
Used another brand before and the Pivot Works seem to be made a little heavier duty. I will only buy Pivot Works from now on.
Bearing kit fit just fine and easy to install
The pivot bearing kit was not to hard to replace.
while taking apart my 2001 Cr125 i found my swingarm bearings were dust. all the bearings were rusted, seals where gone. bought this kit and it fells amazing and at a good price, you get what you pay for in this case. an AMAZING product. came with everything and was easy to install.
A very high quality product. Came with all needed bearings, seals and dust caps. Easy to put in and very durable.
This is the first time I had an issue with Pivot Works. I was short two bearings in the kit I ordered. I called Pivot Works and they promptly mailed me the missing items. Good thing we weren't waiting to race!
Good product. Cheaper than OEM.
Went with the full swing arm bearing kit from PW instead of trying to order all the little pieces. The bearings on my 250F were hammered upon Insp. and I needed to be leaving on a Moto Vacation in less then a week. The kit had all of parts to replace everything back to factory. It is also about 20 dollars cheaper then OEM with a lifetime warranty
totally recommend this for racining
I replace the bearings once a year for good measure (mostly because I never grease them and figure they probably need it after a year of power washing...) The SA bearings are in good shape when I pull them out and I'm certain they will be next year.
Money well spent. This kit came with everything needed to do the job. I also ordered the Linkage Bearing kit, which came with the lower shock bearing. Again, every thing needed to complete the job was included. And a perfect fit. If you have access to a hydraulic press, that is definately the way to go. Especially to remove old bearings that may be rusted in. Dont forget to grease your new bearings!
No contest, these are the best bearings on the market.
Pivot Works kits are always high quality.
An easy install with a perfect fit. Bikes suspension is so smooth.
Way cheaper than OEM, same quality and fit.
Fit perfect and are working great! Would definitely buy again.
With a lifetime replacement program, I cannot say anything else. great product, great fit, and have not ever had to replace once installed.
