Lucian Bute vs Denis Grachev - Can Grachev score another upset TKO?
Grachev stopped Ismayl Sillakh on ESPN this year, for one of the top upsets of the year[but not THEE upset of the year]. Grachev badly hurt Sillakh and went in for the kill.
Bute is coming off of a brutal beating by Froch. Can Grachev do it again?

Bute needs to stop him to get some confidence back. Good choice of opponent, picking right off a big upset win. Grachev seems like he's tough. Ismayl did knock him down, so Bute can stop him. Grachev does nothing special but just come forward and have a lot of power, he's relentless. He reminds me a bit of Adrien Diaconu.
Bute wins by stoppage. Only because he has to and he knows it, I think he's gonna really go for it. So I got Bute by stoppage.

Bute will win
Bute hasn't done much, but still done more than Grachev
he wouldn't choose Grachev without being certain of a win
Grachev would have to immediately jump on Bute and take his heart
if attacked early, Bute would flashback to Froch and wilt
Grachev won't have that in him though, this is a step up fight for him
not much to be awed by, but he will be just because Bute is an ex titlist
Grachev will choke in the moment and not do enough to win

Bute needs to fight fire with fire but remain calm and box well. He cannot allow Grachev to walk him down and needs to throw hurtful shots to discourage teh Russian.
I think he can beat Froch in a rematch if he employs some form of boxing instead of allowing himself to be overwhelmed. He really didn't know how to deal with Froch's pressure and the Grachev fight offers him the perfect opportunity to correct his mistakes.

Bute should win this one easily within 5 rounds, it'll be like the Sillakh fight except Bute will keep Grachev down.
Sillakh was a KO waiting to happen, poor defense and a very poor chin, he would've gotten KOd by almost anybody with decent power. I wouldn't be surprised if Grachev doesn't get past the 2nd round if Bute goes for the kill early.

grachev is garbage, bute should have no problems beating him. sillakh got arrogant and allowed himself to get defeated, grachev just capitalized. he will need the same help against bute for lightning to strike twice, i think its unlikely especially considering that bute will be very cautious and motivated coming of a loss.

I like Grachev - a tough, gutsy guy who is almost impossible to discourage. Against the right fighter he'd make for some great matchups, & there's plenty of suitable opposition around his weight.
That said, he also has a pretty limited toolset to work with - not real quick, not particularly mobile & not particularly slick.
See Bute winning this one & mostly looking good in the process.

The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The price of oil finished slightly lower Friday, after dropping 3 percent earlier in the day.
Benchmark crude for June delivery slipped 35 cents to close at $96.04 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It was as low as $93.37 in the morning.
Initially, a stronger dollar and rising OPEC production weakened support for oil, which fell as low as $93.37 a barrel. The increase in the afternoon corresponded with a move by U.S. stock markets into positive territory and a reversal of some of the dollar's gains.
Since oil is traded in dollars, a stronger dollar makes crude and other commodities less appealing to investors with other currencies. On Friday the euro fell to $1.2934 before coming back to $1.2985. That was still below the $1.3041 late Thursday in New York. Likewise, the dollar nearly hit 102 Japanese yen before slipping to 101.57. The dollar broke above 100 yen on Thursday for the first time since April 2009.
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries said it produced 30.5 million barrels of oil a day in April, the most since November. The group said global supplies increased 450,000 barrels a day. Production from non-OPEC nations like the U.S. is also on the rise at a time when supplies are ample and mixed global economic data raise questions about demand.
OPEC said it expected global oil use to be "much higher" in the second half of the year, but warned that the struggles of the eurozone and possible lower growth in China could hurt demand.
Rising stocks may have encouraged oil buying. After trading lower in the morning, the Dow Jones industrial average and the Standard & Poor's 500 index showed small gains as oil trading closed. Stocks ended higher for the day and the week.
Brent crude, a benchmark for many international oil varieties, fell 56 cents to $103.91 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange in London.
In other energy futures trading on the Nymex:
— Wholesale gasoline fell 2 cents to $2.86 a gallon.
— Heating oil lost 3 cents to $2.91 a gallon.
— Natural gas fell 7 cents to $3.91 per 1,000 cubic feet.

I would take a look at your own sentences and spelling, mate, before you start having a go at 'Big Sam'. You obviously missed the Bolton - Newcastle game over Christmas. A festive feast of fabulous football! Try saying that over and over again.

I agree Sam is a great manager. He did wonders at Bolton and maybe he can turn an underachieving club like Newcastle around. Lets face it teams go to St James' and expect 3 points nowadays. The Geordies could do a lot worse than hire Big Sam.

The Reilly Minute

So I haven't started personal blog apart from Big Corp. just yet but I invited my 8 year old daughter to participate by writing a bit in a feature she named "The Reilly Minute". The rules are that there are no stupid potty jokes but nothing else. (I must reserve \*some\* content to myself after all.)

Her first installment written in her journal & shared with her full permission explains exactly why I think she's such a cool little bird. Here it is-- with a few spelling corrections:

"What To Do For Haiti

We should donate food, water, toys, money and medicine. We should adopt children and treat them well. If they get teased, help them. Don't spoil them. But if you don't have any children, you have more opportunity to get one. The least you can do is donate a jacket to keep a grateful child warm."

Yes, Sun we delisted Sun today & I feel very sad about that. But, all in, I'd rather send a jacket to a grateful child than worry that the footprints of the past may fade. Full speed ahead & hurrah for The Reilly Minute!!

What an inspiring piece of writing Michelle! From my perspective of being a little older, (I like to say 40 with additional experience), I am witnessing the maturation of a brilliant mind, the arcing of a brilliant career, the experiences of a wonderful mother, (and wife no doubt), and a gal with great taste in country music!
 You.. are a hero!

....and by 1985 personal checks were almost non-existent. The mini-tel was really the first commercial internet, and bank transfers were de rigeur. I predict we will never (in your and my lifetimes) have such a system as Mini-tel or anything like it because of our free for all (read free market system). Too many self interests, too many lawyers to represent those self interests, and without a central system too many cooks to come to a consensus on almost anything. I wish it were about technology.

Hello again Michelle,

I remember the Mini-tel when I lived in France in the 1980s.You picked up a terminal at the phone company and plugged it into the phone line. All you needed was a phone contract (account). With Mini-tel you could do every thing from ordering stuff to getting directions, to making plane, train, and even restaurant reservations. Everything lived in their "servers" and the terminals just logged in via a phone number. It was a nationwide system 'cause the phone company owned all the underground water lines in France and ran their own fibre within. Clever! I often thought that with the advent of real computer servers that something like that would make sense for all computing work. Just pay for the time you are online and take advantage of the large scale server infrastructure for crunching power. Oh well.......

Nice article Michelle. I was having similar thoughts when I read "Outliers". Why then do some people succeed when others that appear to be similar on the first look fail? The answer is often found in the "metadata". Yup, I like to stretch a point too.

Thanks again Michelle.

We are also doing theatre camp this summer, though I must say we can have quite a bit of drama at home without extra-curricular instruction in the art thereof.


text:
Recently I went out with a couple of friends for a couple of drinks to usher in the New Year, and came across a few colleagues that knew me during the day when I wasn't so conscious of maintaining a level of fitness than I am today.
So, the first words were: My God! We couldn't recognize you. Wow, you've lost weight.
(Three of the worst words put together from an English dictionary, quite frankly.)
And then the next few words hit me hard: We liked you better when you were plump and funny.
Seriously now?
These is what I get for putting in so much effort. How about that? Yes, they would love more if they saw my now non-existent man-boobs, I suppose.
(Trust me – whoever coined the phrase "less is more" damn sure knew what they were talking about!)
If you're dealing with the same issues, then it's time to start putting some effort into some chest exercises… because it sure is going to take you a while to get that huge chest that was exemplified by Arnie during the golden age of bodybuilding.
With that said, this aspect of "less is more" doesn't apply to women, of course…
An Introduction to Pectoral Muscles
Known as pectoralis major and pectoralis minor, together they consist of all the chest muscles in the human body.
So, why is it important to know a little more about the human body (and these strange sounding words) before moving on to the chest exercises for men?
For the simple reason: if you look at the diagram of the pectoral muscles at this link, you'll find that they spread out like a fan when they are fully developed.

I needed an inexpensive set of spade bits for my work van. Bought these and never had a regret. Chucked into a cordless drill, they all have run straight and true. Sharp as they come out of the package, easy to sharpen when you hit that hidden piece of metal on a remodel job. The edge holds up as well as any of the spade bits I've used that cost many times more. The spur design cuts a nice straight hole, clean bottom, smooth sides. More than adequate for the job at hand. The plastic holder is tough enough to last a long time, not like some of the throw away holders.

I purchased this product new and at a great price. The 3/8" bit was Not straight. At first I thought I didn't have the bit in the drill correctly. Eventually, I noticed the bit was bent. I haven't used the other bits yet. Don't know if they are straight or not.

Bent shafts but they do drill through wood?
By Gunner
from North Alabama
Of the two I've used from the set both had bent shafts which resulted in oversized holes! I drilled holes for lag screws and hinge hooks in 4x4 treated fence posts. Aferwards, I could visually see some of the other shafts of unused bits in the set, were bent as well - so I know I didn't bend them drilling with them. You get whatcha pay for. They do drill holes and they served their purpose as long as I didn't need accurate sized hoes. But are of low import quality.

these bits are not true to size
By dissatisfied
from over yonder
these drill bits are not even close to correct size. drilled a 3/8's hole to put a 3/8's dowl and imagine my surprise that the hole was way over sized. dowl fell right through to the floor. doesn't matter how sharp they are or how long they might last. useless harbor freight is hit or miss, these bits should have missed the boat. i checked them with a caliper and they aren't even metric.

Not straight
By Stan Pak
from Mesa, AZ
I used 2 bits from this set so far for my projects and both of them were not straight. I used hand drill so I could do my job with wobbling drill (I am not sure if it was healthy for the drill), however I would not use it in any table drill press. Go and definitely buy other set. It is a waste of money.

Lt. Governor Dewhurst Invites Sean Hannity to Move to Texas
AUSTIN — A day after the talk radio host expressed his frustration with New York, Lt. Governor David Dewhurst invited Sean Hannity of Fox News to consider making Texas his new home state. A portion of the letter is enclosed:
"As you prepare to "Escape from New York," I sincerely hope you'll choose Texas as the destination for your family, your business and the traditional values that are apparently no longer welcome in the Empire State. Our state's economic vitality and conservative culture might be a little overwhelming at first after you've spent years dealing with New York's high taxes, oppressive regulations and liberal social values, but I'm certain you'll fit right in."
The complete letter can be viewed on the Lt. Governor's website.

I'd be careful of the cops in some situations because it's sometimes illegal on public beaches in Texas.Not sure about Mexico though. The fine for that would be $7000 and loss of a detector(confiscated it). Please let me know if you find out the legalities etc and I can let you know if my research finds anything.

Workplace Workouts at the Company Gym
We have posted in the past about how hard it is to stay fit and trim amid the pressures of the juggle.
About 21% of employers help out by offering a company fitness center. Cutting your commute to the gym to five minutes can make the difference between working out regularly and not working out at all, based on my interviews for today's "Work & Family" column on the topic. Beyond shedding pounds or honing a six-pack, working out can earn you a cut in health premiums at some employers, says Aon Hewitt, a benefits consulting firm.
Some employees I interviewed for today's story credit their company gym with big leaps in personal fitness and well-being. One woman lost more than 100 pounds at the company fitness center at InfoCision Management, a call center company where CEO Carl Albright has a big commitment to employee health and wellness. The employee also gained self-confidence and scored several promotions. Users of corporate fitness centers at Cisco, Chesapeake Energy, and other employers told similar stories.
As sweet a perk as this is, though, a company gym isn't for everyone. A corporate fitness center is more than a place to exercise. It is a place to schmooze and build co-worker relationships, and also to see another, more casual side of fellow employees. People who are overweight or out-of-shape sometimes are too embarrassed to go. "At first you are self-conscious; your co-workers bust your chops when they see you in your shorts," says one employee who was 40 pounds over his target weight when he first hit the company gym.
My company offers fitness centers at some locations as well as another alternative, subsidies for gym memberships, which is perfect for me. Even if I had access to a company gym at my location on the West Coast , I am not sure I would use it. For me, a workout is a private time where I can forget my job. My gym caters to a diverse group of white- and blue-collar types, bodybuilders and high school and college kids. Talking with casual friends I have made there takes me far away mentally from day-to-day pressures. For me, the benefits are almost like meditation – clarity, calm and a renewed sense of well-being. I sometimes come away with new ideas that help me on my job.
Readers, do you have a company gym? If so, do you use it? Do you like working out with co-workers, or does it get in the way of taking a mental break? If you don't have a company gym, would you use one if you did have it? What does your workout mean to your juggle?

The most important aquatic habitat in this extremely arid region is the lower Colorado River corridor. Wetlands of the Imperial and Coachella valleys are now dominated by the Salton Sea. A diversion faltered in 1905, causing the Colorado River to flow into the Cahuilla Basin, forming the Salton Sea.
Whitewater Draw Wildlife Area is a significant wetland in the arid Sulphur Springs Valley in Southeastern Arizona. Mystic Lake is the outlet area of the San Jacinto River in California. Once a major ephemeral wetland, the lake was described by Anza in 1774 as "several leagues in circumference and as full of white geese as water." Remnants of Mystic Lake have been protected as part of the San Jacinto Wildlife Area. The national forests of the Mogollon Rim contain more than 17,000 acres of montane wetlands.

Rectal Cancer Facts
Cancer can begin in either the colon or the rectum, and it may be called colon cancer or rectal cancer, based on where it started. Sometimes these cancers are referred to together as colorectal cancer. There are many similarities between the two, but there are some differences in the ways they are usually treated.
As you eat, your stomach secretes gastric juices that break down your food. The food and gastric juices mix into a thick fluid that empties into your small intestine. Your small intestine breaks down the food further and absorbs most of the nutrients.
Your small intestine joins your colon, which absorbs water and nutrients from your food and stores waste before it exits through your rectum and anus. Together your colon and rectum form your large intestine. The upper five to six feet of the large intestine are the colon, and the lower six inches are the rectum.
Polyps and Cancer
In most cases, colon and rectal cancers develop slowly over many years. Most of these cancers begin as a growth of tissue called a polyp in the inner lining of the colon or rectum. Usually polyps bulge into the colon or rectum; some are flat.
Polyps are common in people older than age 50. Most are benign (noncancerous). However, some polyps may turn into cancer. Certain kinds of polyps are more likely to do this, especially adenomatous polyps (also called adenomas). Adenomas can turn into cancers called adenocarcinomas. More than 95 percent of colorectal cancers are adenocarcinomas. Removing a polyp early may prevent it from turning into cancer.
Other less common types of colorectal cancers include gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, and lymphomas.
The information in this rectal cancer section is about adenocarcinomas.
Early Detection Matters
When colorectal cancers are found early, the cure rate is high. Because colorectal cancer becomes more common as people age, doctors recommend getting screening tests—such as a fecal occult blood test, sigmoidoscopy, or colonoscopy—regularly starting at age 50. You might need screenings earlier or more often if you have a family history of the disease or other risk factors.
Colorectal Cancer Risk Factors
The exact cause of colorectal cancer is not known. However, studies show that certain factors are linked to an increased chance of developing cancer in the colon or rectum. Ongoing research will help us learn more about who's at greatest risk.
Signs & Symptoms of Colorectal Cancer
Signs and symptoms are clues that something may be wrong in your body. A sign is something you see, such as blood in your stool. A symptom is usually something you feel, like pain in your abdomen.
Early Detection of Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer may not cause any signs or symptoms until the disease is advanced. That's why it's important to be screened for colorectal cancer regularly.
Colorectal Cancer Stages
The treatment that your doctor will recommend for colorectal cancer will be based, in part, on the stage of your cancer.

Can we compare Ferrari with Juventus
Italian football heavyweights Juventus, AC Milan, Lazio and Fiorentina all faced a sports courts over allegations of corruption in football and this is not the first sports bribery scandal to rock Italy so as corruption in sport and the bribing of officials seems to be part and parcel of the Italian psyche can we assume Ferrari would not be adverse to greasing a few pockets? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
As usual people will always use means and ways to knock Ferrari & Italian football but the strength of their beliefs ( Ferrari & Juventus ) always takes them to the top time after time and even if they don't succeed they have always been the ones to beat. Ferrari & Juventus have strong hearts and strong wills - nothing beats this. SEMPRE FORTE CON QUORE.
no problem - we all have lousy days.

usalien 1967 i don't know where you hail from.i assume you are either from the USA living in Europe or from Europe living in the USA.either way you post is not only derogatory but also disgracful.God i hope you are not from Briton.i think it will be beyond you to apologise for the remarks.To all Italian F1 fans the majority of posters on this site DO not share the views of this imbercile.i can only hope that he will be beamed up to which ever shit house planet he hails from

Massa, Right now, I reckon Bernie will be glad of any new offers, even top sports will be wondering if their sponsors can fulfill their commitments, Canada will get their slot back if the package is viable, and they are prepared to do what Bernie wants, however, the economic problems facing us all will, I think, create a negotiating table, not considered viable a year ago....
I do hope that they sort out all the non-sense with the stewards. I am a fan of F1 first, regardless of my moniker. Pulling Canada off of the calendar leaving no N. American race is a slap in the face to me and the millions who've attended GP's on this side of the pond. I've been to Montreal 3x and Indy twice in the past ten years. Hopefully this will open the door to Vegas, which I feel would be highly successful.

I've given it all a miss since Spa which makes the Mrs and the bank manager happy and I must admit I'm missing it, my mates have been winding me up especially after Singapore were they claim to have had the greatest weekend since time began so perhaps I'll come round next year who knows.
No problemo Ron. Are you no longer a fan of F1 ,or just not a fan of Ferrari?
Fair enough...I apologize for referring to someone as a half-wit. When I use the term semantics, I mean it in the sense that we both mean the same thing, but use different words to convey it. If you or others find that offensive, I apologize for that as well.
Can we change our topic now. Other listers are probably finding this discussion annoying, that's if I haven't been placed on ignore already. Petrus summed up my feelings on this topic in an earlier thread anyhow. No offense to you being a poet either. Just was having a lousy day yesterday.

Spring Hill College student mentor pilot program begins Sept. 10
MOBILE — The Spring Hill College Albert S. Foley, S.J. Community
Service Center and Mobile County Juvenile Judge Edmond Naman are
teaming up for a new mentorship pilot program, Stepping Up, for at-risk
youth. The program, beginning on Sept. 10, will pair Spring Hill
College students with youths on probation. The youths, ages 11-17, were
referred by their Mobile County probation officers to the program.
Spring Hill has chosen 12 student mentors who will help guide the
youths over the course of the academic year.
Through the Stepping Up program, youths will have the opportunity to build a substantial relationship with their mentors and get homework help. Each Monday afternoon from 4 to 6:30 p.m., mentors and students will team up to work on subjects like math, reading and vocabulary. The program will focus on helping these young people become more successful in school in efforts to deter them from making poor decisions during and after school.
"Everything will be positive," explains Dr. Kathleen Orange, director of the Foley Center at Spring Hill College. "Our student volunteers are service-minded, empathetic and work well with youths. Most of them have worked with middle school children in our school-based mentoring programs." In addition to any previous experience, the Spring Hill students went through further training with Big Brothers Big Sisters.
The Foley Center places students in programs where they can serve others and learn about community needs at the same time. Service opportunities include tutoring at middle schools and elementary schools; teaching English as a second language; working with hospice, clinic, and hospital patients; and serving at community centers and the Boys and Girls Club.

Capital Idea: Fix Frequent Tech Snags
This score just in: Faulty Technology 2, Capital Markets 0.
In the space of a week, investors were treated to two worrying spectacles.
First, on Tuesday, a fake tweet about an explosion at the White House from a hacked Twitter account sent stocks on a wild five-minute ride. And then, two days later Chicago Board Options Exchange, one of the world's largest bourses, was unable to open for nearly two and half hours because of software problems.
Once again, capital markets have to confront systems that are as fallible as they are complex. The list of recent technological woes–from Facebook botched debut on Nasdaq to BATS Global Markets Inc.'s failure to execute its own offering and Knight Capital Group's trading mishaps–is long and troubling.
The common thread among all these incidents is the clash between a highly regulated world–financial markets–and the less-policed arena of the information-technology and internet domains.
The former has come to rely on the latter to such a degree that costly mistakes are happening with worrying frequency. The timing could hardly be worse, with confidence among individual investors at a low ebb because of the traumatic experience of yet another market debacle: the "flash crash" of May 2010.
"You have to provide a sense of predictability and stability that the markets aren't going to break every other month," says Sang Lee, co-founder of Aite Group LLC, a research firm. "You don't want to play around with investor confidence at this stage."
From this standpoint, though, the two most recent events are antithetic. The Twitter hoax should actually give investors some confidence in markets'
resilience and flexibility. CBOE's problems, on the other hand, fit in the category of "be afraid, be very afraid."
Let's take them in turn. In the case of the "hash crash," markets reacted
normally: They plunged on a piece of bad "news" and quickly rebounded once the information turned out to be bogus. They behaved like they do with other rumors.
Luck played its part. As far as we can tell, the hoax was aimed at scoring political points rather than profiting from market disruption. The group that claimed responsibility, the Syrian Electronic Army, doesn't appear to have any other motive–and it has been seemingly active in the non-financial sphere.
It would have been a different story if a malicious trader/hacker had sought to manipulate prices. That risk is all the more prevalent because the Securities and Exchange Commission this month allowed companies to disseminate price-sensitive information on social networks.
In that case, though, a market adage, and my adaptation of an often-repeated tip, should come in handy, even in the Twitter age: Before acting on uncertain information, "buyer beware," and "don't trust, verify."
No such protections are available when markets simply don't work. The CBOE outage paralyzed the biggest U.S. venue for options trading, leaving investors without key tools to hedge risks and manage portfolios.
Old market hands told me that the consequences could have been much worse had the failure occurred on a busier, or more volatile, day.
Instead, William Brodsky, the chief executive of CBOE Holdings Inc., told The Wall Street Journal, with a straight face, at a Las Vegas conference Thursday, that it was "a good thing" the exchange hadn't had an outage in a long time.
Not good enough, mind you, for the investors who took their business elsewhere Friday, leaving CBOE with less volume than usual on some contracts.
The key difference between last week's two IT bloopers is that the cyber-attack was exogenous while CBOE's software glitch and subsequent slow response were internal issues. Software can and does go wrong, but why did the exchange not switch to its backup systems, or try routing orders to other platforms?
CBOE declined my requests for comment. At the Las Vegas conference Friday, Edward Provost, CBOE's executive vice president and chief business development officer, was heard telling another attendee: "You know, we're all technology companies."
He is right. Modern markets are driven by IT and their operators must get technology right. As Aite's Mr. Lee says, "Exchanges…are all realizing that their core business isn't up to snuff."
The solution has to be more investments on creaky IT infrastructure and less on catering to lucrative high-frequency traders with newfangled products that don't help the smooth functioning of the overall market.
Calling for more regulation–a knee-jerk reflex in these cases–won't help.
When the core business goes wrong, companies fix it from within or lose customers and credibility.
CBOE and its peers won't get away with that "it-doesn't-happen-much-around-here" explanation for very long.

Quiet Lightning
Category: Nature
Photo and caption by becki short
I took this in my backyard in September during a lightning storm. I shot this manual with an exposure time of one second, f-stop was f/8. ISO at 200. I chose to submit this photo because it is the only one I have of just one lightning strike. I have numerous photos of lightning where it feels chaotic and almost angry, but this one is different. It feels simple and astounding.

The Count of Monte Cristo
by Alexandre Dumas
The Count of Monte Cristo Chapter 41 Summary
The Presentation
- Albert gives the Count the grand tour of his house.
- The Count shows off his big brain muscles; he is a very educated dude and knows lots about all kinds of subjects. He's like that secretly smart kid in class who just seems to know everything about everything.
- Alberto shows the Count a portrait of his mom in which she gazes sadly out at the sea. Albert's dad apparently hates this painting, and that's why Albert keeps it in his house.
- Next, we meet Albert's dad who is none other than Fernand, the Count's sworn enemy. Fortunately, Fernand doesn't recognize the Count from all of those years back, and he actually warms up to the Count right away.
- That means that Albert's mom is none other than the beautiful Mercédès. She recognizes the Count instantly, but she doesn't say anything.
- Mercédès warns her son to be wary of the Count.

Stalking, eve-teasing to be part of new law against sex offenders

Criticised for excluding stalking and eve-teasing from the proposed Criminal Law (Amendment) Bill, 2012, the Ministry of Home Affairs is reconsidering its decision to bring them under the ambit of the new law. Earlier, the MHA had dropped stalking and eve-teasing from the the new Bill on the grounds that such crimes are difficult to prove before the court.
Justice (retd) J S Verma committee has been asked to consider the suggestions made by women groups and NGO to bring serious offences such as stalking and eve-teasing in its recommendations. "These are serious offences with which the offender starts. They need to be nipped in the bud. We will recommend strict punishment in these offences. The suggestions were also made by women groups which have been sent to Verma commission," explained a senior MHA official.
Stalking is commonly defined as unwanted or obsessive attention by an individual or group toward another person. Constantly harassing through phone calls, SMS or emails can also be described as stalking. Presently, the Delhi Police book offender of stalking or eve-teasing under sections 354 (molestation) and 509 (words, gestures or act intended to insult the modesty of women) of the IPC where maximum punishment is two years and one years, respectively. Under both sections, the offence is bailable.
According to the MHA, while reconsidering the offence of stalking, the decision to make such offences non-bailable will be proposed along with enhancement of punishment with fine. "We have come across several cases of stalking where the Delhi Police prosecute the offender under the DP act. In these cases, it was learnt that they impose a fine of merely Rs 100 and an imprisonment of not more than eight days," added the MHA official.

IMO, the Israel Lobby has entirely too much influence on Congress! Paul is right again! That has to change! If they were honest, they wouldn't need to threaten people who don't agree with them! They also wouldnt continually use the antisemitic mantra with those who dont agree with them! They would act like honorable adults, who understand people don't always agree! That's allowed in America! Well, in the case of real Americans!
Their bully tactics have outed them! So, they have noone to blame but themselves for the backlash happening! America does not belong to Israel, nor does Israel belong to America, and the lies need to stop!

With 11 students suffering influenza-like symptoms Friday, Galt High School shut down early as officials scoured the school grounds in search of an environmental trigger.
School officials said they found nothing in their classroom-to-classroom sweep to explain the sudden illnesses. They concluded a fast-moving virus was likely the culprit, a district spokeswoman said.
Initially, seven students became sick on campus, and four more succumbed to the flu-like symptoms such as fevers and vomiting after being dismissed early.
Officials had swiftly canceled classes out of caution for the well-being of the more-than 1,000 students enrolled in the high school, said Jean Malmgren, executive assistant to the Galt Joint Union High School District superintendent.
Of the seven who fell ill at school, three were taken to hospitals in Sacramento; one was sent to a hospital in Lodi. The remaining three were released to their parents, Malmgren said.
"Originally, it was thought it could be pinpointed to some doughnuts," Malmgren said. "But then they couldn't specifically say that was the case without a doubt."
Galt police officers, hazardous material officers, Fire Department personnel, the superintendent and administrators combed the campus for a source of the outbreak.
They checked food on the campus but found no signs of contamination.
"They speculate that it's a very strong strain of a virus," Malmgren said.
Classes are expected to resume Tuesday, after the three-day holiday weekend, she said.

Re: Principles of pinning
Effie (Asher Willner) is a great guy. I didn't even knew they existed until June of this year. Long story, but I trained there this summer for a few weeks and if I were still in the area...these are the guys I would hook up with. Wonderful attitude and spirit. Awesome environment. I am going there next week probably when I am in town.
As far as IS stuff. Hunter Lonsberry is a good guy for you to hook up with. I think Dan Harden will be in Baltimore soon...I'd try and get with him by all means as that will get you hooked into the NOVA IS community. As you know from following the threads though, IS training is more than going to a few seminars. However, I would definitely go to one so you can experience what the guys are talking about...at least then you get to understand what all the fuss is about and put you in a better, more informed position to decide how it should be worked into your own training regime. ( I need to do more than I am doing).

Arsenal v Everton: Saturday at 12:45pm
Arsenal will be without England midfielder Jack Wilshere (fractured foot), while France defender Laurent Koscielny faces a fitness test on a hamstring problem with Thomas Vermaelen on standby to deputise. Everton goalie Joel Robles is set to continue his FA Cup run by replacing Tim Howard for the quarter-final but Phil Jagielka is unlikely to feature having missed last weekend's win over West Ham and England's midweek friendly with a hamstring problem.
Sheffield United v Charlton - 12pm Sunday
Sheffield United quartet Harry Maguire, Jamie Murphy, John Brayford and Stephen McGinn are all doubtful for Sunday's FA Cup clash with Charlton, while Charlton are hopeful Michael Morrison, Jordan Cousins and Simon Church will be fit.
Hull City v Sunderland: Sunday at 2pm
Sone Aluko and Yannick Sagbo are in line to lead the Hull attack while Liam Bridcutt returns to the Sunderland squad as they seek to book a last four spot.
Manchester City v Wigan Athletic: Sunday at 4.05pm
Sergio Aguero is tipped to start with Edin Dzeko possibly alongside him, while City's reserve goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon will get a chance to shine after an impressive display for Romania against Argentina during the week. FA Cup holders Wigan are unlikely to have top scorer Nick Powell back in time when they face Manchester City in a rematch of last year's final.

What passes for Italian cooking in Dallas is pretty astonishing. Tuna poke with sesame, jalapeño and cilantro. Almond-crusted lamb chops in a honey-balsamic sauce. Scottish salmon with asparagus, bacon-scalloped potatoes and mango-sweet chile relish. A New York strip steak with Barolo- green-peppercorn sauce and mashed sweet potatoes. Seriously — all these can be found on the menus of our city's well-known Italian restaurants.
If there were such a thing as a crisis in a dining scene, the state of Italian cooking in Dallas would be it.
So when I heard that changes had lately been made at Carbone's Fine Food and Wine, Julian Barsotti's Italian-American deli in Oak Lawn, I hurried to pay the place another visit.
Barsotti also owns Nonna, which at this point I'd probably call one of only two serious Italian restaurants in the city (the other is David Uygur's Lucia), along with one or two respectable neighborhood spots. But when I reviewed the then-new Carbone's, which Barsotti opened just about a year ago, I was disappointed — in the antipasto offerings, in the small portions, in the sandwiches at lunch, in the oddly conceived (and expensive for what it was) fixed-price Sunday supper.
There were operational problems, too, with the kitchen running out of dishes on the very limited menu and servers failing to mention that until it was too late to bail out. I gave the restaurant two stars, adding in a blog post that Barsotti would perhaps "pull all the strings together at Carbone's at some point, and really figure out what Carbone's wants to be."
Not only have those strings been pulled together, they've been pulled together with grace and style and tied up in a lovely bow.
Lunchtime used to mean ordering and paying at the counter, which was a little annoying if you wanted to add drinks or dessert and had to settle twice. Now there's table service for lunch, brunch and dinner, an indication that Carbone's sees itself more as a restaurant than a deli.
And it behaves like one. The service is attentive and professional, the servers knowledgeable and excited about the menu — which changes frequently, part of Carbone's charm. You always feel like you're getting what the chefs are excited about at the moment.
Earlier this month, that meant a trio of thick bruschette to start, spread with spring pea pesto and topped with grilled ramps (wild leeks). Sometimes there are St. Louis-style fried ravioli — crunchy-edged packets filled with sausage and ricotta, served with a deliciously fresh marinara for dipping. House-made ricotta is terrific spread on garlic toasts.
If you love salads, you'll be happy at Carbone's. Barsotti and his chef, Jonathan Neitzel, keep the flavors straightforward and pure, as in the nostalgic-yet-elevated chopped antipasto salad, a fluffy, well-dressed mound of sliced romaine and escarole tossed with chopped olives, finochietta salami and roasted peppers and topped with shaved fontinella cheese and toasted chopped pistachios. Another, starring hearts of escarole, wisps of red onion, grated pecorino and fresh toasted walnuts, is simple and perfect. One of my favorite dishes in Dallas, it has been on the menu from the start.
The pastas are mostly wonderful, too, especially a plate of spectacular raviolini filled with arugula and ricotta in a butter sauce with sautéed ramps. (It may be gone by the time you read this; ramps have a short season.) Lasagne al ragu Bolognese layers slippery noodles, house-made mozzarella and ricotta with a soulful rendition of the classic meat sauce, with that happy marinara spooned all around. How luscious. The restaurant's in-house pasta-maker, Juanita Cruz, excels with those fresh sheet pastas, which are finely wrought yet firm and resilient, just right.
Spaghetti, a wee bit gummy and cooked in undersalted water, impressed less, but I loved its exuberant red sauce and tender meatballs.
Secondi delight, too. A lesser chef might be tempted to plop his market fish on a lump of risotto, but not Neitzel. He sends out a beautifully grilled fillet of snapper with sautéed spinach tucked underneath and a lively salsa verde, snappy with fresh oregano, spooned over. It's simple, perfectly executed and delicious, the kind of thing one could eat every other night. He hides a crisply fried, perfectly seasoned veal Milanese under a copious arugula salad with halved cherry tomatoes, solving the problem I often have with the dish — it needs something fresh to balance it.
The four-course Sunday dinners are still happening, but they're now usually priced at $40, with the a la carte dinner menu available as well. The chefs use the fixed-price dinners to play with seasonal ingredients and introduce dishes that often wend their way onto the regular menu.
Recently one began with fritto misto — calamari, excellent prawns and sliced spring onions in a light, crisp batter, served with Calabrian-chile-spiked aioli — and continued with a generous plate of strozzapreti sauced in the best puttanesca I've ever had. The secondo was a thick slice of tender, super-flavorful porchetta just off the grill — a clever way to serve the long-roasted pork, as it added a new dimension. Neitzel set it atop braised French green lentils. Garnished with a bit of roughly chopped Italian parsley, it was earthy, homey and good.
Dessert was a silken vanilla panna cotta that came topped with a vibrant strawberry-rhubarb compote in a French canning jar. It was the best of a number of desserts sampled in the course of three visits, including a coffee semifreddo streaked with chocolate sauce, a fine but unexciting chocolate layer cake with buttercream frosting and a clunky Italian cream cake.
Generously portioned, the dinner now feels like a delicious bargain.
With the addition of a compelling selection of Italian vintages, the wine list has been much improved as well. The Italian offerings, like a 2010 Feudi di San Gregorio Falanghina for $44 per bottle ($11 per glass) or a 2005 Tormaresca Masseria Maìme Negroamaro from Puglia for $52, work better with the food. Barsotti says he is moving toward an all-Italian list.
All too often, once restaurants are reviewed, they drop in quality. But it's the opposite with Barsotti, who's dedicated to constantly refining and improving, always moving forward. The city is lucky to have him. If we didn't, we'd have exactly one- third as many serious Italian restaurants in Dallas.

EAGLE COUNTY — Much as we loathe them, mosquitos are part of life here, especially following a wet winter.
Most of us swat, swear and scratch when beset by the biting bugs. These days, though, it's a good idea to stay un-bitten if possible, thanks to the possibility of contracting West Nile virus.
West Nile hasn't yet been reported in Eagle County — there was only one case reported last year, the first since 2006 — but Jennifer Ludwig, the county's public health director, said this is a virus you really, really, don't want to catch.
Symptoms of Virus
Symptoms include everything from body aches to fevers to flu-like intestinal distress, Ludwig said. Worse, the symptoms, and extreme fatigue, can last for months.
And, while the virus hasn't appeared here, it has been reported elsewhere in Colorado. Public health officials in Adams, Boulder, Delta, Mesa and Weld counties have all reported finding the "culex" mosquitos that carry the virus. That means travel to those areas — for anything from camping to 4-H Club events — can result in a potentially unpleasant time after returning.
"It's not something you want to mess around with," Ludwig said of the virus.
Again, though, Eagle County has few, if any, of the culex bugs this year.
Still, any mosquito bite is annoying at best, and nights when the flying, biting vermin appear numerous enough to carry off a house cat can be downright unpleasant.
Colorado Mosquito Control
That's why the town of Gypsum has contracted with Colorado Mosquito Control to spray around town — every Thursday, weather permitting. Gypsum Town Manager Jeff Shroll said some residents complain, but most seem to favor the practice. And the town council favors the practice. Still, spraying on public property can only do so much.
"It's hard when property to the west of us doesn't spray," Shroll said. "Then mosquitos just blow upstream."
Still, the town is fighting the good fight. Spraying will continue into August, and property owners who want Colorado Mosquito Control to spray on their land can hire the firm.
But, Shroll said, the company is "getting spread thin" right now with demand for its services.
We can't eliminate mosquitos. But between spraying and taking some personal precautions, we can at least keep them at bay.

Get an alert when new Pink Fraud dates are announced
Pink Fraud formed in 1996 to perform the music of Pink Floyd. Since then the band has gained a reputation as the most authentic representation, both visually and sonically, of the Pink Floyd of the 1970's! Shunning the sights and sounds of the 80's and 90's, Pink Fraud recreate the quintessential ground-breaking Floyd of 1968-1979 as you would have seen and heard it at the time. Utilising authentic period clothing and equipment, and staying true to the bands arrangements and touring line-ups Pink Fraud create the suspension of disbelief for fans who were there at the time, and offer the original experience to new fans. Pink Fraud were the first tribute band to play The Dark Side of The Moon as a complete piece, and have since followed this by being the first to play Wish You Were Here and Animals in the same fashion, as would have been done by Floyd during their 70's tours.
