Erik Morales on Matthysse, Dirty Maidana, Jabs Arce
By John E. Brignone, notifight.com
Mexico's Erik "El Terrible" Morales likes big challenges, and for his choice of opponent for the upcoming fight for the super lightweight world title of World Boxing Council (WBC), he didn't hesitate in selecting the knockout artist Lucas Matthysse of Argentina. The fight takes place on Saturday September 17th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.
"We had a number of opponents to select and we chose Matthysse. He is a younger fighter, strong, but with my technique and years of experience we will overcome him. These factors are decisive when we are in the ring. I will show that I am one of the best in the world," said Morales during an appearance on the program "Let's Go All," which is broadcast on Radio Belgrano (AM 950) Mondays through Fridays at 8 PM (Argentina).
"When I selected Marcos "El Chino" Maidana, they told me I was crazy, but I did a great job. Taking the first round, where I hurt my eye, I did a great job afterwards. And now Matthysse's people are also wonder why I selected them? I think we'll make history."
When comparing Maidana and Matthysse, Morales said:
"It is important to know that I will face a cleaner fighter. That fight will be cleaner. He's going to try to hurt us with clean shots. People will enjoy a fight involving a very strong fighter and one who has experience. People will see a very emotional fight."
"Maidana is a very dirty fighter. That worried me a lot. He used very dirty punches. Matthysse throws cleaner blows. So I have to worry about his technique rather than worrying about illegal blows," he recalled about his encounter with "El Chino ".
Initially, the rival of Morales was to be the Argentinean Jorge Rodrigo "Hyena" Barrios and many have written that a switch to Matthysse has hurt Morales' chances to win. However, "El Terrible" rejects these views:
"I am very happy for what was done in the last fight. Many people, especially in the U.S., did not think I had the ability after a two year layoff. For the next fight I'll do a better job."
Morales also laughs when I said that Matthysse wants to "retire him from boxing" when they fight on the 17th:
"Hahaha. It is very funny. My last four opponents said the same thing."
He also threw a few darts at his countryman Jorge "Travieso" Arce, who designated himself as the first Mexican to win world title in four different weight divisions. Morales rejects the claims because some of Arce's titles were interim belts:
"The titles of the WBC does not have internships. I won the fights [for full] championships. "Travieso" Arce accumulates interim titles. I have nothing to worry about [in making history in September]," Morales said.

The Ceiling Fan Store is a home improvement store located on Oliver Street, Maclean. This post is a guest post from the owner there and is an introduction to one of their most popular lines.
One of the most popular forms of ceiling fan sold today is the Harbor Breeze Ceiling Fan. Although they have been around for a number of years now they are right up there as market leaders of the home improvement ceiling fan market.
The company that makes the Harbor Breeze ceiling fan is a company called Litex. Many years ago they developed the technology to make robust and aesthetically pleasing ceiling fans for the home environment. They initially sold the Harbor Breeze range of ceiling fans through the Lowes chain of stores, but more recently they are available from online retailers such as Amazon.
One of the distinctive characteristics of the Harbor Breeze Ceiling Fan range is the wide variety of fan models that are available. You can literally find a Harbor Breeze fan to fit any environment be it traditional or contemporary ultra modern.
Characteristics of the Harbor Breeze Range
The key characteristics of the Harbor Breeze range are:
- Ease of installation – the Harbor Breeze fans have been specifically designed to make installation of the fan easily undertaken by most competent DIYers. At the very worst it is likely that if help was required it would only need to be from a local handyman rather than a specialist fan fitting workman.
- Optional Light Kits – Many of the Harbor Breeze fans have the option to have a light kit included with the fan. This means that the fan doubles up as a lighting unit as well as being a temperature control device. This is an especially useful feature in the event that the ceiling space available is limited or restricted.
- Control Options – Many traditional ceiling fan fixtures have a switch on the wall to control the device. The Harbor Breeze fans have the option, via the Harbor Breeze remote control units to control the fan without having to move to the wall unit. This make use of the fan far more convenient.
- Silent Operation – Anyone who has had a ceiling fan installed will know how important silent operation can be. It is not relaxing to be sitting in a room watching television or having a conversation and have to raise the sound level, or talk louder in order to be heard over the sound of the fan. This is not a minor point and one of the positive features of the Harbor Breeze ceiling fan range is their silent operation.
Given the 100% guarantee provided by Lowe's and the extensive benefits to installing a Harbor Breeze ceiling fan listed above there are excellent reasons why you should install one. The different variety of designs are extensive.
Traditional Ceiling Fan Designs
These are a very popular choice for many homeowners. The ceiling fan designs are traditional in styling and yet provide a high quality fitting.
Transitional Ceiling Fan Designs
These are somewhat more progressive than the traditional ceiling fan look. They are great for using the Harbor Breeze ceiling fan as a splash, an impact item. They also have a more contemporary feel to them.
Contemporary Ceiling Fan Designs
At the more avant garde end of the ceiling fan market, the contemporary Harbor Breeze ceiling fans are striking and effective and provide great cooling and lighting in all sorts of contemporary settings.
Outdoor Ceiling Fans
Included in the Harbor Breeze range of ceiling fans are outdoor ceiling fans for verandas and decked areas. These are ideal for keeping warm outdoor areas comfortably cool and are a great addition to the ceiling fan options you would want in your home.
Check out our full range of Harbor Breeze Fans
All in all, the quality, reliability, the range of options available and the fact that they are accessible to almost all households makes the Harbor Breeze ceiling fan range an obvious choice for any homeowner looking for a home project to enhance the value and look of their home.
If you own a fan and need Harbor Breeze ceiling fan parts then come and visit as we have a full range of items to match.

Immediately, I called my bank to cancel the charge and contacted the company via email immediately for cancellation. A few days following, I see they recharged my account and replied to my email. They said that there was a 10 % credit card fee, and tried to make me keep the order. I told them I wanted to cancel, and they said that the refund would take 15 to 30 days to process.
I followed up with "Bess" via email numerous times through email address: firstname.lastname@example.com, asking to expedite the refund and she kept on saying that it was being processed. They never refunded my card, and I had to file a claim with my bank to get my money bank.

A Sturdy Survivor Gets Back to Work; Herculean Effort to Restore A Landmark Battered on 9/11
By GLENN COLLINS
Published: January 6, 2003
The gaping holes in the tan-brick facade of the Verizon Building are still open to the ground zero void. The blasted steelwork is jacked up like a Rube Goldberg contraption. Only four tortured pieces of the 72-foot ornamental entranceway bronze work now exist. Such are the wounds inflicted by the crushing debris from not one, but three, neighboring buildings: the north and south towers of the World Trade Center, and 7 World Trade Center, which pancaked next door.
But the Verizon Building is very much alive. Enduring a daily chaos of cement mixers and the sparks from welders' arcs, the building at 140 West Street is again sending out dial tones to 34,000 customers. It is putting stockbrokers online. It is generating revenue.
It is doing so without the 1,700 office workers who have been relocated to other buildings. Aside from communications equipment, the Verizon Building is populated only by a temporary staff of construction engineers and the 250 hard hats who are toiling there to bring it all back.
This seat-of-the-pants reconstruction of the landmark 32-story building could use a metaphor, and Dominic P. Veltri, Verizon's New York manager for design and construction, is ready to supply one. ''What we're doing here is engineering on the fly,'' he said. ''We're changing a flat tire on a bus going down the highway at 60 miles an hour.''
Some bus. For four decades, the landmark 1926 Art Deco building at the corner of Vesey Street was the headquarters of the New York Telephone Company. It is currently the most visible symbol of reconstruction efforts at ground zero. For thousands of tourists gawking at the building, the grievous damage, and the army of construction workers swarming to mend it, are a sobering reminder not only of the horrors of the terrorist attack but also of the heroic efforts to clear the rubble and bring back Lower Manhattan.
Beyond this, the construction effort is a boost for a company that was besieged by service-restoration complaints after the terrorist attack, and has subsequently battled the Communications Workers of America in an eye-blackening advertising war over job security.
That culminated when Verizon, citing cellular and cable competition and federal regulatory strictures, laid off more than 2,700 workers in New York and New Jersey last month, generating a Christmas blizzard of news media reports about the plight of the newly unemployed.
To date, the reconstruction effort has not been affected by the fight with the union, although if picket lines materialize during contract negotiations next August, some construction workers may not cross.
The repopulation of 140 West Street with some office workers is now scheduled to begin at the end of 2003, but the rebuilding could continue for years.
So far, $70 million has been spent to stabilize the building, and the restoration is expected to cost at least $140 million more, only part of the $1.4 billion that Verizon is spending downtown to restore equipment and cables.
Since the day the building opened in 1926, it has been a beehive of both administrative and technical activity, and its design was considerably more than functional: it was intended to establish a presence, given the building's role as administrative headquarters and central office.
Nevertheless, according to George Famulare, Verizon's manager of corporate real estate, ''the building is a tank.'' Built with reinforced concrete and steel, its floors can hold 250 to 300 pounds per square foot, constructed to support the giant electromechanical switching assemblies that were replaced long ago by electronic alternatives.
If that sturdiness accounted for its survival, the subsequent efforts to protect and restore 140 West Street have been nothing short of Homeric. Verizon lost two of its technicians, who were working above the crash zones, in the World Trade Center attack. None died in the Verizon Building.
Mr. Famulare supervised the evacuation after seeing people jumping from the towers. He found himself trapped under his desk after the ceiling fell during the collapse of the south tower. Eventually he escaped through the cloud of ash and dust looking like ''a white powdered doughnut,'' he recalls. Then he stayed to shut down crucial equipment.
During the collapses, steel projectiles from the towers hit the Verizon building, sliced the mains and left water cascading into the building's five subbasements, filling the lowermost vaults like a swimming pool. A javelin of steel actually speared through the sidewalk concrete and lodged in the basement. The building's fuel oil tanks were submerged in water, then burst.
Up in the topmost subbasement, a pool of shin-deep water made unusable the miles of snaking phone cables (black for copper, orange for fiber optics) in the 250-foot-long, 60-foot-wide cable vault. At 10:21 p.m., the building's backup batteries ran out of power and the last call went through the switching equipment.
Below, Subbasement B held much of the telephone company's historical records, memorabilia and antique equipment, which was damaged by the flood. It took two months to pump out 12 million gallons of water mixed with 40,000 gallons of petroleum.

GDB BuildBot
- New terms
- How to use the cgit interface to view the logs
- How to add your buildslave
- Try Jobs
This wiki page describes how the GDB BuildBot works. Read it if you are interested in adding a new buildslave to the system, if you want to know who is responsible for each existing buildslave, or if you are just curious about how the BuildBot is configured.
The web interface for the GDB BuildBot is http://gdb-build.sergiodj.net/. Specifically, you may be interested in going directly to the Waterfall page, which displays in a nice manner the builds.
The URL for connecting your buildslave to the GDB BuildBot is gdb-build.sergiodj.net:16123. You must contact us first in order to obtain permission to do that (and a password); send a message to <email@example.com> and put <email@example.com> in the Cc.
The interface for viewing the results of the builds is http://gdb-build.sergiodj.net/cgit .
Regression reports are sent to the gdb-testers mailing list.
2. New terms
In this page, we will use a few specific terms to describe things, so it is good to understand what they mean.
BuildBot: This is the name of the project we use to test GDB (see more info here).
buildmaster: BuildBot has a master node, which is responsible for deciding which tasks each slave will perform, collecting the results of each task, and providing the interface for viewing the results.
buildslave': This is the slave node of BuildBot. Slaves are "dumb", in the sense that they only execute things when master tells them to, and they usually do not have any knowledge of the entire task being performed. A typical configuration for BuildBot is to have one buildmaster, and one or more buildslaves connected to it. This is what GDB does.
build step: A step is what the name says: a step in the build process. For example, checking out the source code of the project that will be tested is a step.
build factory: A factory is like a recipe of how to perform a build. It can contain instructions for how to prepare the build directory, how to checkout the sources, how to compile them, how to test them, and how to compare the test results. A build factory is composed by one or more build steps.
builder: A builder is an instance of a factory. It is the build process itself. For example, one possible builder for GDB is Fedora-x86_64-native-gdbserver-m64, which is responsible for building and testing a 64-bit GDB on a x86_64 machine, and testing the native-gdbserver there.
3. How to use the cgit interface to view the logs
The interface for looking at the log files generated by the testsuite (i.e., gdb.sum and gdb.log files) is http://gdb-build.sergiodj.net/cgit. When you enter this page, you will many git repositories whose names are exactly the same names of the existing builders. Inside each repository, you will notice that there is only the master branch, and lots of tags. Each tag is named using the following convention:
Where TIMESTAMP is composed by YEARMONTHDAY-HOURMINUTESECOND, and COMMIT is the SHA1 hash representing the GDB git repository's commit that has been tested. Therefore, if you pushed a commit to the GDB repository (say, 0abcd), and you want to take a look at the log files generated by testing your patch against the builder Fedora-x86_64-native-gdbserver-m64, you just have to go the repository named Fedora-x86_64-native-gdbserver-m64/.git and search (there is a search box in the top-right corner) for 0abcd.
4. How to add your buildslave
If you are interested in adding a new buildslave (and possibly a new builder) to the GDB BuildBot, thank you! There are some steps you need to perform in order to make sure everything is OK.
4.1. Buildslave specs
Your machine needs to:
Be able to properly compile and test GDB. Make sure all the necessary dependencies are installed in your system.
Be able to run Python, and to run the buildbot-slave == 0.8.12 package (previous version might work, but we have not tested them).
Have a decent amount of disk space to perform the git clone, the build and the test.
It is also recommended that your machine is constantly updated (e.g., on Fedora you might consider running a cronjob to yum update every day), because GDB's test results are impacted by updates on GCC, glibc, binutils, etc.
4.2. Buildslave owner responsibilities
You will be the responsible for the buildslave, which means that we may contact you if there is anything you should do (i.e., update the buildbot-slave package, restart your buildslave, etc.). Be sure to fill the contact fields on your buildslave configuration file (see below).
4.3. Contact us first
Please, contact us in order to discuss further details, and to let us know about you. The best way to contact the GDB community is to write to <firstname.lastname@example.com>. Please, make sure you also include Sergio Durigan Junior in the Cc (e-mail: <firstname.lastname@example.com>), because he is the current maintainer of the GDB BuildBot.
4.4. Adding your buildslave to the configuration
You will need to patch the following files and add your buildslave configuration there:
- config.json
- master.cfg
On config.json, you will have to add your buildslave information on the slaves section. You should provide:
The name of your buildslave. Please pick a descriptive name. Do not use whitespaces nor special characters.
The arch, i.e., the architecture of your buildslave. Possible values are x86_64, ppc64, s390x, etc.
The jobs property, which says how many parallel jobs can be triggered by make when compiling GDB. This does not affect make check, because it is always done in non-parallel.
This is an example of how a new entry should look like:
"slaves" : [ { "name" : "fedora-x86-64-1", "arch" : "x86_64", "jobs" : "4" }, ... { "name" : "debian-x86-64-1", "arch" : "x86_64", "jobs" : "2" } ],
Then, you will have to edit the builders section. In this section we describe what kind of build we are interested in, and what are the buildslaves that will perform it. If you are adding a buildslave with a new architecture, then you will most probably want to create a new builder for it. However, you can also be interested in adding more buildslaves to an existing builder. In both cases, you will have to edit the following properties:
The name of the builder. Please pick a descriptive name; for example, if the builder will build and test native-gdbserver 32-bit on Fedora, with a 64-bit GDB, your builder should be called Fedora-x86_64-native-gdbserver-m32 (actually, this is the name of an existing builder). Do not use whitespaces or special characters.
The type of the builder. This is one of the most important fields. It will be used as the prefix for the RunTestGDB* set of classes, in order to determine how to build and test GDB. Using the same example as above, the type would be NativeGDBServer_c64t32. The c64t32 part means that GDB will be compiled as a 64-bit binary, but the tests will be run in 32-bit mode (i.e., RUNTESTFLAGS='--target_board=native-gdbserver/-m32').
The builddir, which is the name of the directory that will be created on the buildmaster to store information about this build. Please use the name of the builder as the builddir, but with lowercase chars.
The slavenames property, which is a list of buildslaves that can perform this build. It is extremely important to include only buildslaves capable of building for the specified architecture. This is what a new addittion should look like:
"builders" : [ { "name" : "Fedora-x86_64-m64", "type" : "Plain_c64t64", "builddir" : "fedora-x86-64", "slavenames" : [ "fedora-x86-64-1" ] }, ... { "name" : "Debian-x86_64-m64", "type" : "Plain_c64t64", "builddir" : "debian-x86-64", "slavenames" : [ "debian-x86-64-1" ] },
At last, if you created a new builder, you will also want to include its name in the builderNames property of the schedulers section.
After you have done this, please send a patch to the <firstname.lastname@example.com> mailing list. You will be provided a password used by the buildslave to connect to the buildmaster.
4.5. Buildslave configuration
The first thing you will need to do is to install the buildbot-slave, version 0.8.12, package on your system. To do that, run (as root):
pip install buildbot-slave==0.8.12
If this doesn't work, you will have to find the specific version on BuildBot's website. If you are running Windows, take a look at BuildBot's instructions.
4.5.1. Fedora-specific instructions
You will need to install the dependencies to compile and test GDB. For Fedora systems:
(set -ex;fedpkg clone -a gdb;cd gdb;fedpkg sources;rpmbuild --define "_specdir $PWD" --define "_sourcedir $PWD" --define "_srcrpmdir $PWD" -bs --with testsuite *.spec;yum-builddep gdb-*.src.rpm)
Do not forget to disable the abrt-ccpp service on Fedora. It will make ABRT be invoked every time a coredump is generate, which consumes time and is totally unnecessary. To disable it, do (as root):
$ systemctl stop abrt-ccpp.service $ systemctl disable abrt-ccpp.service
Also make sure that core dumps can be generated in the current directory, so that core dump tests are not skipped. E.g., on Fedora:
echo "kernel.core_pattern=core" > /etc/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf
4.5.2. Debian-specific instructions
For Debian-based distributions, you can do:
$ apt-get build-dep gdb $ apt-get install texinfo flex bison $ apt-get install emacs
4.5.3. General instructions
Because of the make TAGS step, you will also have to install emacs.
If your machine will not test 32-bit packages, you do not need to install the 32-bit (i.e., .i686) versions of the packages above.
It has been reported that the tests won't run properly if the SHELL variable is not set to a valid shell (e.g. /sbin/nologin instead of /bin/bash). Make sure that the user running the buildslave has a valid shell or override the SHELL environment variable somehow.
It is also recommended that you create a separate user to run the buildslave. This user should not need/have root nor SSH access; it only needs to be able to build and test GDB.
For example, let's assume this new user is called buildbot. Log into its account in the system, and create a new buildslave. To do that, you are going to need three things:
- The name of the buildslave (should be the same name you put in the JSON configuration file)
The address of the buildmaster, which is gdb-build.sergiodj.net:16123
- The password that was provided to you
Then, you can issue the command:
$ buildslave create-slave DIR URL:PORT NAME PASSWORD
Where DIR is the directory that will be used by the buildslave to store local files (it can be the same as NAME), URL:PORT is the address of the buildmaster, and NAME is the name of the buildslave. The PASSWORD needs to be obtained from the BuildBot admin.
4.5.4. Adding information about yourself and the machine
You must add your contact information on your buildslave. To do that, edit the file named DIR/info/admin} (assuming that {{{DIR is the name of your buildslave, as per the example above) and add your name and e-mail address there:
$ cat DIR/info/admin My Name <email@example.com>
You should also edit the file DIR/info/host and include a one-line information about the machine. For example, if it is running a Fedora GNU/Linux 23 on x86_64, you would put:
Fedora 23 x86_64
This info will show up in your buildslave's page, and it's important to keep it up-to-date whenever you upgrade or change your machine.
4.5.5. Starting the buildslave
After that, you can start the buildslave:
$ buildslave start NAME
Make sure it is started OK. It is also recommended that you create some special cronjob to restart this on every reboot. An example would be:
$ crontab -l # restart buildslaves on every reboot @reboot buildslave restart NAME
5. Try Jobs
5.1. Available Builders
Here you can see the available builders to try your patches on.
try_builders = [ "Fedora-x86_64-m64", "Fedora-x86_64-m32", "Fedora-x86_64-native-gdbserver-m64", "Fedora-x86_64-native-gdbserver-m32", "Fedora-x86_64-native-extended-gdbserver-m64", "Fedora-x86_64-native-extended-gdbserver-m32", "Fedora-x86_64-cc-with-index", "Fedora-i686" ]

Qazi Mian Muhammad Amjad
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (August 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Qazi Mian Muhammad Amjad (Urdu: قاضی میاں محمد امجد), was an eminent legal scholar of Qur'an, Hadith, and the Hanafi school of Islamic law. He was an acknowledged authority on Muslim jurisprudence. He was also a Sufi of the Chishti Order, and one of the few Sufis[1] in the South Asia who did not establish the 'Khanqah',[2]"Darbar"[3] or Astana 'Aliya[4] and forbade his descendants not to establish Dargah after his death and made a will to bury him in the ordinary grave. He was against all the practices resulting in undue homage to the tombs and graves of Sufis and saints. He believed that Islam was corrupted by Sufism, pantheism, theology (Kalam), philosophy and by all sorts of superstitious beliefs. Belonging to a qadi's family which had, since the 16th century, been prominent among the landed aristocracy of the Soon Valley, he adopted 'Faqr' (spiritual poverty)[5] and 'Darwayshi' (asceticism).[6]
The disciple path[edit]
He was born in a famous qadi's family of Naushera, Soon Valley. He belonged to Awan (Pakistan).[7] On the maternal side, he was a grandson of Qazi Kalim Allah,[8] the famous Muslim qadi and jurist of Naushera in the time of Mughal Emperors. He got his early religious education from his learned father Hazrat Qazi Ghulam Muhammad. He learned, Qur'an, Hadith, Fiqh from him and mastered the Arabic and Persian grammar. He also received excellent education under his grandfather, who was a great scholar of Hanafi school of law. After completing his early education, he went to Sial Sharif and took the Bait (pledge of discipleship) at the hands of Hazrat Shams-ud-Din Sialvi of Sial Sharif. Through the training received from Khwaja Shams-ud-din Sialvi, he learnt the fundamentals of Sufism. He was much impressed by the spiritual attainments of Khwaja Shams-ud-din Sialvi who introduced him to mystic way of life and granted to him the spiritual insights. Under his training he had undergone or experienced mystic trances. He now came to see through illumination (Ishraq) what he had previously learnt theoretically from books. Having reached both formal and spiritual perfection, he returned to the practical world.
The jurist path[edit]
With the advent of British and downfall of Mughal Empire, the Muslims were deprived of their political authority and their law was replaced by English law. Their language and laws were displaced through the system of English language and law. The Indian Rebellion of 1857 marked the end of Mughal rule. The Muslims in the words of W. W. Hunter, "found their prestige gone, their laws replaced, their language shelved and their education shorn of its monetary value"[9] According to Tanveer Khalid "The British Government, though gradually, abrogated the Islamic Law. The whole of Muslim Criminal law was superseded by the Indian Penal Code and the Code of Criminal Procedure. The Indian Evidence Act and the Indian Contract Act replaced the Islamic law. The Indian Majority Act, 1875, abrogated Muslim Law except in matters relating to marriage, dower and divorce. The Caste Disabilities Act, 1850, 'abolished the civil disabilities which Muslim Law attached to apostasy."[10]
In this period of turmoil the Muslims of Soon Valley needed the guidance of Islam for their private and public life. They also needed to obtain fatwa to guide them in everyday life. Belonging to the remote area of Soon Valley, surrounded by high hills and without road connected to District Shahpur, and with low literacy rate, the people of this area began to face numerous changes as a result of the greater socialisation with the advent of British. This has given rise to new issues and problems related to the shariah law and their private and public life. In these circumstances Qazi mian Muhammad being as a son of Qazi family came forward for the preservation of Islamic law in the Soon Valley. It was at this critical juncture that he appeared as 'Mujtahid'.[11]
He was a great legal scholar of the Hanafi school of Islamic law.[12] He preferred this school because, among the four[13] established Sunni schools of legal thought in Islam, the Hanafi school is the oldest. It has a reputation for putting greater emphasis on the role of reason and being slightly more liberal than the other three schools. He knew Arabic, Persian, and Urdu languages. His legal scholarship was unparalleled in the area. During the period of British rule, when cases were decided according to English law, Muslims consulted him for his legal opinions on Islamic laws. His verdicts and fatwas were sought and quoted about religious questions on which he was held to be an authority. He rendered a great service to Islamic laws and Fiqah. He was also a Muhaddith (one who specialises in Hadith literature). He issued many fatwa on important issues at the request of the Muslims of his time. Muslims scholars from all the British India asked him for his legal opinion on the important issues concerning Islamic law. The excellence of Qazi Mian Muhammad Amjad as a great jurist had been widely accepted in his time.
He helped the common Muslim not to lose heart in the years of his servitude, poverty and deprivation. He also established a mosque in Naushera; the call for prayers went forth from the minarets five times a day, allegiance was proclaimed to God and Muhammad punctually and persistently. His contribution to the preservation of Islam in the Soon valley in the period of turmoil cannot be forgotten by his people.
The Sufi path[edit]
As a Sufi, he was an authority on "Wahdt al Wujud",[14] Sufism, and Muslim mysticism. The study of great Sufi, Ibn Arabi, and his masterpiece The Meccan Illuminations (Al-Futūḥāt al-Makkiyya) in 37 volumes[15] was his specialisation. In his Anwar Shamsia, Maulvi Ameer Baksh says that he was an ardent reader of Ibn Arabi book The Meccan Illuminations (Al-Futūḥāt al-Makkiyya), and was an authority on his teaching. It was stated in "Hu al-Hameed" by Sahibzada Muhammad Masood Ahmad that once Hazrat Pir Meher Ali Shah was unable to understand one point of Al-Futūḥāt al-Makkiyya, then qazi Mian Muhammad Amjad satisfied him by his interpretation. He acknowledged Ibn Arabi superiority in philosophy and spiritual insight, but he never followed him if he found him deviating from Sunnah. He used his knowledge of Islamic mysticism, Sufism and "Wahdt al Wujud" only for purely academic purposes and never allowed his devotees, followers and descendants to treat him as a Pir. Although, he was capable of creating a 'Khanqah', 'Darbar' a centre of Sufi mysticism, and though Hazrat Shams-ud-Din Sialvi of Sial Sharif authorised him to do so,he did not created any 'Gadi' or 'Drabar', and also forbade his descendants to do this, as he was also a strong critic of Darbars and "family Gadi Nasheen". He also forbade his descendants not to establish Dargah after his death and made a will to bury him in the ordinary grave. After his death his elder son Qazi Mazhar Qayyum made every effort to stop the people from making Dargah of the grave of his father.[16]
He was a Sufi and Alim at the same time. In the words of Sarah F. D. Ansari, "Rigid distinctions have been drawn between ulama (plural of Alim) and sufis. They have been portrayed as antithetical, irreconcilable representatives of the same truth and consequently very different from the point of view of their relationships with governments of the day. As guardians of the Sharia, ulama were officially appointed as muftis and qazis to interpret and administer God's Law. They often came to rely on the state for their livelihood in the form of stipends and grants; they tended to become involved in worldly interests, which could lead them both to be distracted from essentially spiritual matters and to identify with the concerns of rulers rather than those of ordinary Muslims. Sufis, on the other hand, sought to gain knowledge of God in their hearts. By following the path, which meant observing various techniques of spiritual development, they aimed to obliterate self in unison with God. Because they placed greater emphasis on spiritual growth rather than on the letter of God's law, they were often able to reach out to people of other faiths, indeed to draw them towards Islam. For these reasons, and because they depended on the offerings of the pious rather than the gifts of kings, they often tended to stand aloof from state power and its representatives."[17] But he never accepted the offerings of the pious and stipends and grants by the government as his ancestral land was more than his needs.
He did not change his monkish cap to lordly tassel, unlike other pirs of Punjab who became big feudal lords. Sir Muhammad Iqbal criticised the pirs of Punjab in his poem (پنچاب کے پيرزادوں سے) "TO THE PUNJAB PIRS". In this poem he imagined that he visited the tomb of reformer Shaykh Ahmad Sirhindi and asked him for the saints' gift and blessings. The spirit of saint replied that God's people i.e., Pirs and Sufis have no portion in this land of five rivers i.e., Punjab, where lordly tassel or turban sprouts from monkish cap. Pirs and "Sajjada nashins, claimed to be the descendants of the Sufi, 'saints', intermediaries between the Faithful and their God, and this cut against the grain of Islamic orthodoxy. As beneficiaries, in cash and in kind, of their special religious status, these sajjada nashins had become men of local standing in their own right."[18] In the Punjab, the sajjada nashin or pir families were not so rich in terms of land as the great land lords of Punjab but these sajjada nashin or pir families exerted great political and religious influence over the people. The British could not administer the area without their help and no political party could win the election without their help.[19] Sir Muhammad Iqbal denounced these pirs in one of his poems as merely pale reflections of the great medieval Sufi saints, "Crows" occupying the "Eagle nests" of Punjab's greatest religious men.[20][21] While criticising this role of pirs of Punjab,he says:[22]

وہ خاک کہ ہے زير فلک مطلع انوار
اس خاک کے ذروں سے ہيں شرمندہ ستارے
اس خاک ميں پوشيدہ ہے وہ صاحب اسرار
گردن نہ جھکي جس کي جہانگير کے آگے
جس کے نفس گرم سے ہے گرمي احرار
وہ ہند ميں سرمايہء ملت کا نگہباں
اللہ نے بر وقت کيا جس کو خبردار
کي عرض يہ ميں نے کہ عطا فقر ہو مجھ کو
آنکھيں مري بينا ہيں ، و ليکن نہيں بيدار!
آئي يہ صدا سلسلہء فقر ہوا بند
ہيں اہل نظر کشور پنجاب سے بيزار
عارف کا ٹھکانا نہيں وہ خطہ کہ جس ميں
پيدا کلہ فقر سے ہو طرئہ دستار
باقي کلہ فقر سے تھا ولولہء حق
طروں نے چڑھايا نشہء 'خدمت سرکار'!
He had correspondence with various famous Sufis of his time including Hazrat Shams-ud-Din Sialvi of Sial Sharif, Hazrat Khawaja Muhammad-ud-Din, Hazrat Khawaja Zia-ud-Din, Pir Meher Ali Shah, Pir Jalalpur Sharif. He inherited a library of rare Arabic manuscripts from his ancestors, to which he added every rare book or manuscript that he could find. He left many books still in the form of manuscripts, religious decisions, letters, and notes.
The Meccan Illuminations[edit]
As pointed out earlier, in his Anwar Shamsia, edition 1916,[23] Maulvi Ameer Baksh says that when Hazrat Khawaja Shams-ud-din Sialvi died in 1883, his disciple Qazi Mian Muhammad Amjad was so mourned and depressed that now with whom he would learned and discussed Sufism and Ibn Arabi philosophy. According to Maulvi Ameer Baksh, Qazi Mian Muhammad Amjad was an ardent reader of Ibn Arabi book The Meccan Illuminations (Al-Futūḥāt al-Makkiyya), and was an authority on his teaching. The study of great Sufi, Ibn Arabi, and his masterpiece The Meccan Illuminations (Al-Futūḥāt al-Makkiyya) in 37 volumes[24] was his specialisation. He died in 1920, leaving his younger comrade Pir Meher Ali Shah as the only authority on this subject in India.
Both were disciples of Hazrat Khawaja Shams-ud-din Sialvi. Through the training received from Khwaja Shams-ud-din Sialvi, they learnt the fundamentals of Sufism. The great Sufi introduced them to mystic way of life and granted to them the spiritual insights. They now came to see through illumination (Ishraq) what they had previously learnt theoretically from books. However, having reached both formal and spiritual perfection, he returned to the world of books and Muslim jurisprudence. But his younger comrade, Pir Meher Ali Shah went ahead and had undergone or experienced mystic trances at highest level. He used to spend all summer and winter nights sitting on a slab of stone in the shape of a prayer mat, devoted to prayer and meditation. With this practice, once his legs became unable to move.[25]
In 1933, Pir Meher Ali Shah was absorbed in his mediation and mystic trances. In the same year the great philosopher, Sir Muhammad Iqbal had to give lecture on Cambridge University on Ibn Arabi concept of Space and Time. He wrote a letter to Pir Meher Ali Shah stating that now there was no body in whole Hindustan, to whom he could consulted in this matter, requesting him to tell about Ibn Arabi concept of Space and Time. In this letter Sir Muhammad Iqbal also stated with respect that he knew that the learned Pir was disturbed due to his mediation, but as his motive was service of Islam, therefore he dared to ask him a question. Pir Meher Ali shah, however due to his mediation, bad health, and old age could not replied.[26] He died in 1937. Next year, Sir Muhammad Iqbal also died.

Aligarh Movement[edit]
He was a great admirer of Syed Ahmed Khan, and Aligarh Movement. Despite the strong opposition of conservative Muslim Ulema, he supported this movement in his area. He requested to the British Deputy Commissioner of District Shahpur, now District Sargodha, to establish a High School in Naushera. Unlike the Ulema of his time he was very broadminded, and send his third son to the school. For its success, the Aligarh Movement depended wholly on public donations. Sir Syed Ahmed Khan made notable personal contributions and went whole India, and overboard in his fund collection drive. He organised lotteries, staged drama and felt no hesitation to visit any place, including red light areas, to collect money.[27] Qazi Mian Muhammad Amjad himself gave donation and persuaded all local influential landlords to contribute in this regard.
60 conservative Ulema and Alims had signed fatwas accusing Sir Syed of disbelief and apostasy. There was total consensus among the Ulema and Alims, only divine approval was missing. Maulvi Ali Bakhsh did the needful and travelled to Mecca and Medina on the pretext of pilgrimage and secured a fatwa calling for beheading of Sir Syed if he repented not and persisted with his plan to establish the college.[28] But Qazi Mian Muhammad Amjad urged his people to support Aligarh movement.
He was also a "Hakeem" (herbal medicine practitioner) of first rank, and he did not take any remuneration from his people. and afterward, his elder son Qazi Mahar Qayyum (Raees azam Naushera) made a great name in this field.

Khanqah is the spiritual centre providing a facility for islah al-nafs (self correction). Following the traditions of the ahl al-haqq (people of truth), khanqah follows the traditions of suluk, tazkiya, and tasawwuf while staying clear of all kinds of bid'as (innovations in religion) and complies strictly with the rules and boundaries prescribed by the shari'a. Imam al- Dhahabi in his Siyar A'lam al-Nubala' relates that Hasan al-Basri would have a session in the mosque where he would teach hadith, fiqh, sciences of the Qur'an, language and other disciplines and if he was asked about tasawwuf, he would answer. He would also have a special session in his house where he would only teach the meanings of zuhd (asceticism) and the sciences of the batin (inner-self). There were those among the people who would accompany Hasan al-Basri for hadith, some for the Qur'an and its commentary, some for language and rhetoric and others would accompany him for sincerity and purity of intention; among them were the like of 'Abd al-Wahid ibn Zayd who were known for their piety and worship.

According to the poet-philosopher of the East, Sir 'Allama Muhammad Iqbal, faqr does not signify only an attitude of detachment, selflessness and indifference to worldly life, which are all negative in nature. Iqbal's faqr is through and through positive. A faqir or qalandar in Iqbal is not only indifferent to vicissitudes of material life; he is a man of strong will, who has a moral stake in the social and political life of the people around him, motivated by the love for the ideal of moral and spiritual regeneration of mankind. In the attainment of this ideal, he is ready to sacrifice everything.
- ^ The term comes from the Persian word dervish, which usually refers to a mendicant ascetic. This latter word is also used to refer to an unflappable or ascetic temperament (as in the Urdu phrase darwayshana tabiyat for an ascetic temperament); that is, for an attitude that is indifferent to material possessions and the like.

Kutab Shah, who came from Ghazni with Sultan Mahmud, was the common ancestor of the Awans…….It was only in the Rawalpindi, Jhelam and Shahpur districts that they became of any political importance……..In Shahpur District the Awans held the hilly country to the north west, Jalar, Naoshera and Sukesar, where the head of the tribe still resides."

Born in 1028 in Baghdad. Qutb Shah Qadiri was an appointed Qutb (spiritual pole) by Syed Abdul Qadir Jilani for this South Asia. Due to his great efforts many of the Hindu tribes converted to the Islam. After the incident of Karbala, the household of Muhammad had to migrate to other lands. Many of his descendants who lived in Egypt and nearby lands departed for Turkistan and Iran due to persecution at the hands of Hujjaj bin Yusuf. As time went by, they resettled in places such as Bukhara and Hamadan in Turkistan, and Baghdad in Iraq. Some migrated to Khurasan and others to Herat in the mountainous regions of present day Afghanistan. The descendants of Qutb Shah Awn ibn Ya'lā settled in South Asia.

I also told him that there would be a learning curve on his end and that we were still improving the demographics of the radio ads. I told Mr. Lippel that his closing percentage should improve as we progress with the campaign. He agreed. I never intentionally tried to mislead Mr. Lippel and I am sorry that he feels that way.

Following a meeting with Angie's List's management, Stifel Nicolaus thinks that the company has started focusing on profitability along with growth. The firm believes that investors will bet that the company's EBITDA margins will advance significantly. Stifel recommends aggressively purchasing the stock.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
"The company, which has headquarters in Indianapolis, has hired Bank of America Merrill Lynch to serve as its lead underwriter. Allen & Company, Stifel Nicolaus Weisel, RBC Capital Markets, Janney Montgomery Scott, Oppenheimer & Company, ThinkEquity and CODE Advisors are also participating."
Interesting that they said: " believes that investors will bet that the company's EBITDA margins will advance significantly." and not " believes that the company's EBITDA margins will advance significantly."
Why would they even say EBITDA, when there is almost no interest expense, there are no taxes as they have tax loss utilizationfor the next $200 million of earnings (which they'll never get to) and they have almost no depreciation or amortization. they could have said earnings just as easily but used this obtuse and ,in this case, meaningless term. 20% insiders, they'll sell soon.
And some just believe him, I guess. Not sure how he'll do it since they've been around for 12yrs(?)
and never a single day profitable. Magic??

I really enjoyed the show. It was very fast moving and funny. The actors did an excellent job.

Thought the cast was outstanding. Enjoyed the play in general, though some parts of it I didn't find all that funny (even though I usually really like farce). All in all, a terrific production. Loved the theater - small & intimate.

Quite a delightful play and presentation. Well paced with a very talented cast. Very, very enjoyable.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
No customer service!!! No room!!! Booked a hotel cruise package, received my email stating they were making my reservation. When I received it, it was wrong so I called them and told them we needed 2 double beds not a king/queen. I made the reservation by calling the company direct and was not asked how many we're in our party which was 4. I waited for a new email showing my change but didn't get one so I called back and was told everything was changed and I should get an updated email within 24 hours.
I didn't get the email so I decided to email the company at the address on my original email firstname.lastname@example.com. That email was sent 2 days after original booking. I waited another day no response so I finally called Stay123 again. I was told I didn't have a reservation. That they had faxed the hotel an draped the hotel but didn't get a response until that day and that they were going to call me and let me know. So now it 4 days later and we have no room and they did not contact me, I had called them. I was told there was nothing they could do for me now all rooms were booked at all there hotels. Tis was at 6:00 in the evening. i asked to talk with a supervisor and was told they were gone for the day so I asked what time this person would be in and to have them call me.
Well you guessed it, I received no call back from the supervisor/owner so I called them again. I finally got to talk to a person and she flat out lied to me. She said they called me on the next day after making my reservation to let me know it was not available. The guy I talked to the night before told me they just received the information that day. I asked her why didn't she leave me a message if they called? She said they don't like leaving messages. I asked her why they had not responded to my email? She didn't have an answer for that. All I can tell you is if you use this company, you do it at a risk that's just not worth taking.

The blog of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation
I steer clear of big-box retailers and malls the weekend after Thanksgiving. I've nothing against a little post-holiday commerce, but the onslaught of elbow-to-elbow Black Friday bargain-hunting sets my teeth on edge. If you're also looking to avoid the worst of the madding crowd this week, particularly if you have family to entertain or small kids in tow, I've some suggestions for you.

How about a theatrical confection after that heavy meal? Actor's Theater of Minnesota's "Princess Diana: The Musical" closes its second successful run at St. Paul's Camp Bar Cabaret this weekend. A creation of playwright, composer and royals-enthusiast Karen Sokolof Javitch, the show sets a 30-song cycle about "the people's princess" into a script co-written with her friend, author and fashion maven, Elaine Jabenis. McKayla Marso and Sean Dillon play the ill-fated storybook couple at the center -- alongside a cast of characters including the Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, the Queen Mum, Fergie and the young princes William and Harry-- in this extravagant musical homage to Diana's glamorous life and untimely death. As a nod to her renown for charitable work, 50 percent of the proceeds from ticket sales are going to the Red Cross to support relief efforts in the Philippines in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan's devastation. "Princess Diana: The Musical" runs through Nov. 30. Tickets are still available for shows on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday this week, 7 p.m. at Cabaret Theater in Camp Bar, 490 N. Robert St. Saint Paul, Minn. Specific show times and ticket details: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/454221. Photo courtesy of Dreamland Arts
Got kids to entertain this weekend? If you have preschool-to-early elementary-aged little ones, grab their favorite plush critters and head over to Dreamland Arts Saturday morning for the "Stuffed Animal Holiday Show." This 45-minute interactive theater experience is intimate (capacity is limited to 15 children and up to 25 adults), and just right for younger children. The folks of Dreamland Arts (Leslye Orr and family) will animate a bevy of animal characters with silly voices and songs, inviting the children to come on stage with their own stuffed animals to join in the imaginative play. Each show ends with a tiny tea party for the kids and their critter-friends -- with real or pretend refreshments, as you like. (There will be some light snacks and beverages available for sale.)
"The Stuffed Animal Holiday Show" is Saturday, Nov. 30, 11 a.m. at Dreamland Arts, 677 Hamline Ave. N., St. Paul, Minn. Tickets are pay-what-you-can, but visitors are encouraged to make reservations online given the space limitations. For details, visit the Dreamland Arts website. "Indies First" day was sparked by an open letter by novelist Sherman Alexie urging authors to become booksellers-for-a-day as a show of support for their local independent bookstores. Photo: Chase Jarvis
Also on Saturday, Twin Cities' independent bookshops are going to be packed with local writers: they are turning out in droves for Indies First day to show their support for area mom-and-pop bookstores by being on hand to recommend titles and chat up customers on this hugely important holiday sales weekend. In Saint Paul's SubText bookshop, you'll find big-name young adult writers such as William Alexander and Kurtis Scaletta, humorist and playwright Kevin Kling, and many others. Micawber's will host novelists Nicole Helget and Peter Geye; at Common Good Books, you might run into "Vacationland"author Sarah Stonich and children's book writer Mary Losure. Red Balloon will be lousy with picture book authors and young adult fiction writers hand-selling their favorites all day, too.
Minneapolis Star-Tribune books editor, Laurie Hertzel, has a handy list of Twin Cities' bookstores and local authors joining in on the "Indies First" events Saturday, Nov. 30. A map of participating shops around the country is available on the IndieBound website. Image by Michael Hoyt, courtesy of The Third Place Gallery
Bonus Minneapolis event: (Knight Arts grantee) photographer Wing Young Huie's The Third Place Gallery is hosting a two-day show featuring artifacts and art objects created as part of the public practice of eight South Minneapolis-based artists. "Objects from Community Based Art: A Holiday Show" is presented with artist Michael Hoyt and will feature work by Wing Young Huie, Andrea Jenkins, Natasha Pestich, Janaki Ranpura, Stephanie L. Rogers, Andy Sturdevant and Xavier Tavera. The public will be able to purchase pieces in a wide range of media, styles and price points – from $5 to several hundred dollars. Most of this work has never been made commercially available. As varied as the objects are, this art is connected by its "emphasis on work that addresses the intersections of people and places outside of gallery and museum walls."
"Objects from Community Based Art: A Holiday Show" will be Nov. 30 and Dec. 1, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days at The Third Place Gallery, 3730 Chicago Ave., Studio B. Minneapolis. For detailed information on this and upcoming events, visit The Third Place Gallery online.

Block X sits on a table, which is connected to block Y via a rope. The table isn't frictionless. The pulley has no friction, and the rope and pulley is to be ignored for this problem.
A.) Draw a free body diagram, with all forces labeled, of block X and block Y.
B.) Mark which forces are equal "third law pairs". Still, the rope is ignored!
C.) If the coefficient of friction is .3, and block Y is 20kg and block X is 4kg, how fast is block Y accelerating?

The full nonlinear dynamic von Kárm´n system depending on a small parameter ε > 0 is considered. We study the asymptotic behaviour of the total energy associated with the model for large t and ε → 0. Introducing appropriate boundary feedback, we show that the total energy of a solution of the corresponding damped model decays exponentially as t → +∞, uniformly with respect to the parameter ε > 0. As ε → 0, we obtain a damped plate model for which the energy also tends to zero exponentially. The limit system can be viewed as new variant of the so-called Timoshenko model. It consists of a second-order hyperbolic equation for transversal vibrations of the plate coupled with a first-order ordinary differential equation whose solution appears as coefficient of the plate model and takes into account (when ε → 0) the contribution of the tangential components.
