Dead miners to be identified
Northern Cape police said the 10 bodies of illegal miners would be indentified in the next few days.
CAPE TOWN - Northern Cape police on Monday said they are busy identifying the bodies of 10 illegal miners who died when a tunnel collapsed on them.
Rescue personnel managed to save one trapped miner.
The police's Cherelle Ehlers said they were meeting with the victims' loved ones later on Monday.
"We'll only know later when the families will be able to identify the bodies."
Rescue operation ended last Thursday after authorities said they were positive there were no more bodies underground.
Meanwhile, the National Union of Mineworkers (Num) has urged mining companies to work with government in combating illegal mining.

My memories (m!a)
He'd started out walking but now his legs had thrown him into an all out sprint. Tearing through the city, he didn't bother apologizing to the people he shoved from his path. Tears streamed down his mismatched eyes and mixed with the blood that streaked his face. His bladed finger tips tearing into his skin when he tried to hold his head or rub his eyes.
What was he?! What had happened to him!?
He knew this woman would have the answers. The woman with the blue eyes and kind smile. The one that made his heart hammer violently in his chest any time she wandered through his mind even the slightest.
Throwing the door back, startling at his own strength when it flew from the hinges. His eyes were wide with fear as he ran into the house, some how knowing where to go. He opened the door his hands trembling. Looking in he saw her gathering up her paints where she'd knocked them over at the slamming door.
Pausing a moment he looked at her, lips parted, eyebrows furrowed memories bombarding him violently as his heart tried to beat through his ribs.
In two quick strides he was to her and only another second longer he had fallen to his knees his arms wrapping around her legs, his face against her stomach. Tears began to pour as he shook. He didn't know what to say what he could say. He just knew that with her there was a safety and a comfort that he could find no where else.
Aquene couldn't put to words the panic shooting through her as he clung to her legs breaking down and crying. Her mate, her dominate alpha who was strong, resilient and dangerous, though he maintained that kind and innocent charm, was in metaphorical pieces
"Utino…what..what's wrong…?" She asked hugging his head the best she could since he wouldn't allow her legs to bend.
"F-fesial." He stuttered out through his sobs.
Aquene's brows creased more as she looked down at him. "What?"
"My name is Fesial." He looked up at her and shook his head. "I….it hurts. I can remember everything." He frowned. "But …but I can't remember what happened after Omashu.." He looked up at her. "But you… i remember you. I don't like this. I want to be like before. I remember I love you and your my world..but I can't remember your name…your favorite color, anything like that…Help me."
The thundering in her chest felt as if it were deafening. She knew something was wrong with him before all of this, but they never took the time to dwell on it much. After all, what was in the past was in the past. Nothing could change this.
But hearing him say he remembered something of it, hearing him give a name that must be as familiar to him as Utino was to her wrenched her heart. The beginnings of tears pricked her eyes but she wouldn't let them fall. How could she? Aquene had to be strong for him, a rock for him to lean on.
She carefully knelt in his hold. "Aquene, U… Fesial. My name's Aquene." She took in the blood on his face before drawing his hand toward her and took off the blades he wore carefully. "My favorite color is a deep, forest green, like the evergreens in the northern parts of the Earth kingdom." The blades were set aside and away from her paint. Next thing she did was get a clean cloth and worked on cleaning the blood from her mate's face. "I found you one day, just down the street from here." A small, sad smile tugged on her face. "You were just as lost then, I believe."

Clear skies and light winds will prevail. Airmass is warmer than 24 hours ago, so lows will not be as cool as last night. && .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday) Issued at 255 PM MDT Mon Sep 26 2016 Colorado is sandwiched in between storm systems with a strong and deep trough over the northern Great Lakes and the short wave trough just off the coast of Baja California well to our southwest. The net result is a building ridge of high pressure aloft bringing warm and dry conditions tonight through Tuesday. Very little surface pressure gradient exists across the high plains and so winds will remain light, even in the high country. Very little cloud cover is expected through Tuesday. The remaining question is temperatures for tonight and tomorrow. Even with clear skies and dry air, do not expect temperatures to be as cool as they were early this morning when Limon briefly dropped to 29 deg and other favored low-lying locations across the plains dropped into the low to mid 30s briefly. Think that the warming temperatures at low and mid levels (700 mb temps will be 4-5C warmer Tuesday) will preclude the need for a frost advisory tonight, and expect low temps a few degrees warmer than this morning. High temps Tuesday will be 6-9 deg F warmer than Monday area-wide, with most areas east of the mountains hitting 80 degrees. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday) Issued at 255 PM MDT Mon Sep 26 2016 Colorado beneath a col region with a closed low hanging over the nrn Gulf of California and a deep dynamic low pressure system spiraling over the Great Lake States. Weak flow and warming temperatures aloft with an upper ridge building over the Rockies and nrn great Plains will thwart any opportunity for precip at least through Wednesday night. Warm temperatures aloft and ample sunshine will keep sfc temperatures several degrees above average on Wednesday. On Thursday...models show the SW cut off low reaching northeastward over Arizona and the circulation around this cyclone drawing a long fetch of subtropical moisture up over the Four Corner Region. Based on latest guidance could see some of this moisture reaching the swrn fringe of the fcst area as early as Wednesday night possibly resulting in a increase in cloud cover. But its probably not until during the day on Thursday that this moisture becomes deep enough and lapse rates steep enough to generate showers and a few t-storms. Scattered showers will likely begin first in the high country Thursday afternoon sprinkled with a few thunderstorms. Show see all this spreading onto the plains by afternoon and linger through the evening. Southwest flow should keep temperatures on the warm side Thursday even with the gradual increase in cloud cover. Max temps should still run 4-6 deg f above average for the date. By Friday models show the closed low lifting northeast as an open shortwave across the Four Corners by afternoon and eventually over northeast Colorado by Saturday morning. This should keep the weather unsettled around here with increased clouds and low precip chances. Afternoon and evening showers will be accompanied by isolated t-storms...although precip amounts should be on the light side. Snow level may lower enough for a dusting of snow on the high mtn ridges and peaks Friday night. Models show a weak sfc cold front slipping down along the Front Range late on Sunday...a bit later than what earlier model runs had indicated. Do not see too much in the way of cooling initially with this system. It`s on Monday when the upper trough out west passes over the region when we`ll see the better cooling...with temps back to near average. May also see a few showers around on Monday mainly in the high country. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Tuesday evening) Issued at 718 PM MDT Mon Sep 26 2016 Mostly clear skies will prevail tonight and Tuesday.

Explicit formulas for crack identification in conductors using boundary measurements of direct current fields85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370200View Description Hide Description
The identification of a crack in a conducting half space is considered. The equivalent current distribution model is applied to crack identification using boundary measurements of a dcmagnetic field. A general uniqueness theorem is proved, and an explicit formula is given for identifying a surface-breaking crack whose contour is part of an ellipse. An explicit formula is also given for the identification of a long surface-breaking crack using boundary measurements of a dcelectric field.
X-ray photoelectron spectra of low temperature plasma anodized alloy on Si(100): Implications for SiGe oxidation kinetics and oxide electrical properties85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370201View Description Hide Description
The material properties of low-temperature plasma-grown oxide on gas-source molecular beam epitaxial have been investigated. X-rayphotoelectron spectra studies show that plasma anodization leads to no segregation of Ge species during thin oxide growth with the onset of partial segregation occurring for thicker oxides. Depth profiling shows that the plasma oxide is stoichiometric in form with the exception of a small percentage of Ge atoms left in their unoxidized state. The density of these Ge atoms agrees with that measured in previous electron trapping studies. In addition, oxide growth rate enhancement of SiGe is observed. These phenomena are explained using a qualitative model for the mechanism of oxide growth of SiGe which is consistent with published results for SiGe: oxides grown with other systems.
Surfactant effects of thallium in the epitaxial growth of indium arsenide on gallium arsenide(001)85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370292View Description Hide Description
We report on the role of thallium as a surfactant in the growth of InAs on GaAs(001) by molecular beam epitaxy.Thallium suppresses the transition from two-dimensional to three-dimensional growth modes for temperatures below without incorporating significantly into the bulk InAs lattice. It extends the range of temperatures at which InAs may be grown, and appears to improve the crystalline quality of growth at Preliminary results indicate that at low temperature thallium does not prolong pseudomorphic growth beyond the normal critical layer thickness, but rather may form interfacial InTlAs with a greater concentration of thallium than has been achieved to date.
Deposition of amorphous silicon films by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370202View Description Hide Description
Device-quality a-Si:H films have been deposited by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD). We have investigated the influence of deposition parameters on the film growth and properties. The most important deposition and growth processes that influence the optoelectronic material properties of a-Si:H deposited by HWCVD are clarified. During the deposition process attention must be paid to accurately control the substrate temperature, which is a key parameter to obtain device-quality films. A heat transport model is presented to be able to correct for the heating of the substrate by the filaments. It is found that filmsdeposited at high deposition temperatures are under a high compressive stress. We show how the hydrogen incorporation in the layer is influenced by hydrogenation of subsurface layers by the atomic hydrogen flux that is inherent to the HWCVD process. We further identify the fundamental differences between plasma enhanced CVD and HWCVD material.
Mechanisms of amino acid formation using optical emission spectroscopy85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370203View Description Hide Description
Magnetoplasma dynamic arc jet was characterized by optical emission spectroscopy(OES) in order to study the mechanisms of amino acid formation induced by electric discharge. Nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms and CN radicals were produced by instantaneously heating a gas mixture to 10 000 K. These plasma species were rapidly cooled to form an amorphous film containing amino acid precursors by directly colliding against a wall of a glass tube. This is a new method of producing amino acid precursors without involving the reaction among hydrogen cyanide (HCN), formaldehyde and ammonia HCN, and are generally considered important intermediates in amino acid formation. Spark discharge (SD), which is a typical electric discharge in amino acid synthesis, was also characterized by OES. Only CN radicals were observed in a mixture plasma. These radicals became more stable molecules by colliding against other molecules, and sufficiently cooled molecules were dissolved in water. Although HCN appeared to have been formed by SD, amino acids were not effectively synthesized. Therefore, the high activation and rapid cooling processes should be important for the amino acid formation from a gas mixture.
Effect of impurities in the CdS buffer layer on the performance of the thin film solar cell85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370204View Description Hide Description
The highest efficiencies of (CIGS) thin filmsolar cells have been achieved when incorporating a thin CdSbuffer layergrown by chemical bath deposition (CBD). The reason for this success has recently been discussed in terms of a pure Cd-doping effect in the CIGS layer. Such a model suggests that the bulk properties of the CBD-CdS buffer layer would be of minor importance. In this work, CBD-CdS layers having different bulk properties (i.e., concentrations of incorporated impurities) were employed in a number of CIGS solar cells. To further explore the bulk versus interface properties, half of these CIGS devices were subjected to a pre-deposition of an additional intermediate ultrathin layer. Moreover, CIGS devices made with CBD-CdS layers of different thickness were fabricated. Both standard and temperature dependent current–voltage measurements were performed. The results indicate that the bulk properties of the CBD-CdS buffer layer indeed play an important role in the formation of the CdS/CIGS heterojunction. By increasing the impurity concentration or the thickness of the CBD-CdS layer, the open-circuit voltage was observed to substantially increase. This favorable effect was counteracted by the appearance of a crossover effect in the characteristics for devices with the highest impurity concentration or thickness of the CBD-CdS layer. The pre-deposition of an ultrathin layer did not affect these results. The presence of the crossover effect was strongly correlated to the appearance of trap-assisted tunneling in addition to the thermally assisted tunneling. The observed crossover effect was suggested to originate from too high a number of impurities (defect states) in the bulk of the CdS layer.
Photovoltaic properties of conjugated polymer/methanofullerene composites embedded in a polystyrene matrix85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370205View Description Hide Description
Bulk donor–acceptor heterojunctions between conjugated polymers and fullerene derivatives have been utilized successfully for photovoltaic devices showing monochromatic energy conversion efficiencies above 1%. The photovoltaic response of these devices is based on the ultrafast, photoinduced electron transfer from the conjugated polymer to the fullerene [N. S. Sariciftci and A. J. Heeger, Handbook of Organic Conductive Molecules and Polymers, (Wiley, New York, 1997), pp. 413–455]. In this work we present efficiency data of solar cells based on a soluble derivative of p-phenylene vinylene (PPV), poly vinylene (MDMO-PPV), and a highly soluble methanofullerene, [6,6]-phenyl -butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), embedded into a conventional polymer, polystyrene (PS). By the blending of the optimized donor–acceptor components into the conventional polymer matrix, the percolation threshold for photovoltaic response of the three component systems is found to be determined by percolation of the methanofullerene in the polymer matrix. We present current/voltage data of PS–MDMO-PPV–PCBM devices with various PS concentrations as well as photoinduced absorption studies in the infrared [(PIA) Fourier transform infrared] and light induced electron spin resonance studies on the electron transfer in these composites. At low light intensities, the monochromatic power conversion efficiency and the photon carrier collection efficiency of the PS free device are calculated with 1.5% and 18%, respectively.
On the extraction of linear and nonlinear physical parameters in nonideal diodes85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370206View Description Hide Description
We describe a parameter extraction technique for the simultaneous determination of physical parameters in nonideal Schottky barrier,p-n and p-i-ndiodes. These include the ideality factor, saturation current, barrier height, and linear or nonlinear series, and parallel leakage resistances. The suggested technique which deals with the extraction of bias independent parameters makes use of the forward biased current–voltage characteristics and the voltage-dependent differential slope curve The method allows (a) establishment of the current flow mechanisms at low and high bias levels, (b) extensive of the permissible ranges of determined parameters beyond what is possible in other published methods, and (c) to automation and computerization of the measurement processes. The method is verified experimentally using metal–semiconductor structures based on Si, InGaP, and HgCdTe as well as an InGaAs/InGaAsP multiple quantum welllaser diode exemplifying a p-n junction.
Determination of the barrier heights for electron injection in organic light emitting devices85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370207View Description Hide Description
The performance of organic light emitting devices is strongly dominated by the cathodematerials, because the injection barrier for electrons is largely affected by the electronic properties of the used metal. We report internal photoemissionmeasurements of the barrier height existing between aluminum tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) and different cathodematerials. It is shown, that a linear relationship exists between the measured barrier height and the work function of the cathodematerial. However, the gradient in this phenomenological equation indicates, that the barriers cannot be calculated as usual merely as the difference of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital of the organic material, and the work function of the cathode, but that surface states play an important role. The barrier height remains unchanged after storage, even though the contact exhibits clearly visible degradation effects and numerous "dark spots."
Performance evaluation of high-power wide band-gap semiconductor rectifiers85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370208View Description Hide Description
Applicability of GaN in unipolar and bipolar devices for high-power electronic applications is evaluated with respect to similar devices based on other materials. Specific resistance is used as a measure of unipolar performance. In order to evaluate bipolar performance, 700 and 6000 V diodes based on Si, 6H-SiC, and GaN are compared with respect to forward conduction and reverse recovery performance at room temperature and high-temperature conditions. It is shown that GaN is advantageous not only for high voltage unipolar applications, but also for bipolar applications. An empirical closed-form expression is presented to predict the avalanche breakdown voltage of wide band-gap semiconductors. Formulation of the expression is based on an approximation of the impact ionization coefficient in terms of seventh power of the electric field.
Effect of thin V insertion layer into Ta film on the performance of Ta diffusion barrier in Cu metallization85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370209View Description Hide Description
In order to increase the failure temperature of Tadiffusion barrier for Cu, we investigated the effect of a thin V insertion layer (100 Å) into Tafilm with/without ion bombardment on Tadiffusion barrier performance in Cumetallization. When the Ta/V/Ta diffusion barrier was deposited without concurrent ion bombardment, the insertion of the thin V layer into Tafilm was not effective to improve the barrier performance of Tafilm, because of the thermal instability of the Ta/V/Ta multilayer caused by the reaction between the Ta/V/Ta films and Si substrate. Meanwhile, when the Ta/V/Ta diffusion barrier was deposited with ion bombardment, the insertion of the thin V layer into Tafilm improved barrier properties significantly. This was attributed not only to the densification of grain boundaries in Ta/V/Ta films, but also to the formation of two thermally stable sharp interfaces between Ta and V by ion bombardment, resulting in the reduction of the fast diffusion of Cu through Ta/V/Ta films.
Radio-frequency properties of stacked long Josephson junctions with nonuniform bias current distribution85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370210View Description Hide Description
We have numerically investigated the behavior of stacks of long Josephson junctions considering a nonuniform bias profile. In the presence of a microwave field the nonuniform bias, which favors the formation of fluxons, can give rise to a change of the sequence of radio-frequency induced steps. The amplitude of the steps is enhanced when the external frequency matches the fluxon shuttling regime.
Flux reversal time in thin film write heads: A nonlinear system theoretic approach85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370211View Description Hide Description
Large amplitude write currents elicit a nonlinear frequency response from thin film write heads. Saturation of the yoke structure causes the measured inductance to be a simultaneous function of both frequency and amplitude. Density plots are used to study the change in inductance over a two dimensional input parameter space comprising ac write current frequency and dc write current amplitude A simple lumped element reluctance model representing such coupled behavior is proposed. The model extends quasistatic measurements that indicate a quadratic relation between the input magneto-motive force and the magnetic flux in the yoke structure. The circuit consists of a nonlinear reluctance element, described by a Volterra series, connected in series to a linear inductive element. The superposition theorem allows an analytic estimation of the flux reversal time for increasing write current amplitudes. A typical thin film write head that exhibits a quadratic dependence of flux on write current amplitude is analyzed. The model predicts a 30% decrease in flux reversal time over that predicted by a linear model as the amplitude of a stepped input write current is increased by a factor of 10.
Nanoscale metal transistor control of Fowler–Nordheim tunneling currents through 16 nm insulating channel85(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.370104View Description Hide Description
A nanoscale metal/insulator tunnel transistor (MITT) with a channel length of only 16 nm is fabricated by conventional photolithography, and its operation is experimentally studied. The MITT consists of two metal electrodes, an insulating channel inserted laterally between these two electrodes, and a third metal gate electrode formed upon the gate insulator above the insulating channel. The Fowler–Nordheim tunneling currents flowing from one metal electrode to the other through the insulating channel are controlled by applying a voltage to the gate electrode. It is found that the MITT can be operated similarly to the semiconductortransistor, and the feasibility of the nanoscale metal transistor is demonstrated.

As the trade deadline approaches, fans are asking a lot of questions. What teams are going to be buyers? What teams will be sellers? Which player or position could most help a particular team?
We can only speculate. Fans don't know what goes on behind closed doors.
The Boston Red Sox have the best record in the American League and the second best in all of baseball. This begs the question: Do the Red Sox really need to trade?
Here are six reasons why the Red Sox shouldn't trade this year.

USA defender John Brooks has been hailed as an American hero, after his 86th minute goal clinched victory in their opening World Cup match - and fans paid tribute by having some fun with his Wikipedia page.
The 21-year-old centre-back came off the bench to score from a corner, securing a 2-1 win against Ghana.
Delighted USA fans promptly expressed their feelings for Brooks in the most appropriate and hilarious way - by editing his Wikipedia page.
In the minutes following Brooks' goal, the page was edited repeatedly. The first said: "HE IS AMAZING AND SAVED THE USA AGAINST GHANA!!!!"
John Brooks' Wikipedia page. pic.twitter.com/cHyr82lYIt— Sunday League (@SundayShoutsFC) June 16, 2014
The adulation escalated quickly, and within minutes he was declared to be "among the ranks of John F Kennedy, Chuck Norris and Abe Lincoln as American Heroes."
A later edit also referenced Honest Abe, calling Brooks: "the greatest american since Abraham Lincoln."
THIS IS BRILLIANT: USA match-winner John Brooks' updated Wikipedia page. pic.twitter.com/Ei3VsL5sch— Football Stuff (@FootbalIStuff) June 17, 2014
Other edits described Brooks as "a God" and "the greatest American import since the English."
Sadly the edits have now all been rectified.
Not satisfied with being an all-American hero, Brooks also claims to be psychic. He says he foresaw his game-winning goal in a dream two nights before the match.
"Yeah, it's unbelievable," he said after the game. "I said I had a dream, I told some team-mates that I dreamed that I had scored in the 80th minute and we won the game. It turned out to be the 86th minute, but it's still so good!"

Lynn Aylward | Mar 14, 2014 An 8,000-word front page story in the New York Times tells a gripping and sometimes gruesome tale of several dozen men with intellectual disabilities who for over three decades endured servitude and abuse from their employers. The men rose at 3 a.m. every weekday in Atalissa, Iowa, worked grueling shifts doing unsavory work...and earned $65 a month. Some twenty of the men finally emerged from their virtual prison when a sister of one fought past rebuffs from several state agencies and contacted a reporter at The Des Moines Register. That happened in 2008--and since then the men won a settlement for back wages and are doing well-- so it is not breaking news. But the story is not well-known outside Iowa and it shakes any complacency that exclusion and maltreatment of people with ID is a mostly-solved challenge.

Boudin Stuffed Bell Peppers
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 45 mins
I made this up because I had the boudin and the peppers. Boudin seems to be made just for this dish since it's similar to stuffings traditionally used for peppers, but I couldn't find a recipe. So, here is what I created in my kitchen, and it was really, REALLY good!!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 8 green bell peppers
- 6 link boudin sausages
- 1 large hot house tomatoes, diced
- 3784.0 ml water
- 4.92 ml sea salt
- black pepper
- 8 slice monterey jack pepper cheese
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large pot, add salt to the water. Cover pot and heat water over medium high to high heat and bring to a boil. Place the boudin in a baking dish and place in the oven to warm for 10 minutes (or heat in a microwave for 2 minutes).
- While water is heating, rinse, cut tops off and remove seeds from bell peppers. When the water has come to a boil, add peppers. Return to a boil, stirring peppers, and boil for 3 minutes. Using tongs, remove peppers from water, strain and season the insides with black pepper. Remove water from heat and set aside.
- Cut casing of warmed boudin and removed filling. Stuff peppers with the boudin. Top each with about a tablespoon of diced tomatoes. Place stuffed peppers in a baking dish, and add some of the boiled water to the dish. Bake for 30 minutes. Top each with a slice of cheese and bake for 5 more minutes.
- yummy! (add about 220 calories to the nutritional analysis based on this recipe http://www.recipezaar.com/93882).
Most Helpful
I sautéed bacon, onion, and jalapeño with olive oil, added to boudin. Awesome!
Making this as we speak. We had leftover roast chicken that I put in the food processor then added to the boudain. I also saut
Delicious! Right amount of spice and looks good as well! TY!

Ratings for Dr. Diana Pollack
Excellent physician, knowledgable, truly caring and a straight shooter. Sees the value of overall wellness and taking care of your self. Highly recommend.
I found her very helpful, her staff very responsive. She seemed concerned and had a desire to help me.
She had no knowledge about the rare disorder I have been diagnosed with nor did she know how to treat it. She treated me like I was a hypochondriac and told me my "illness was all in my head." For me she was no help at all. I would not recommend her to anyone.
She is absolutely wonderful. I have Fibromyalgia and she has been the only doctor who has truly helped me. Have recommended her in the past and will again. VERY up to date on current medical research, etc. VERY helpful and caring.

British Soldier Killed By Man In Afghan Army Uniform
Category: Politics
/ Jan 08, 2013 12:22PM EDT
A man wearing an Afghan army uniform shot dead a British soldier at a patrol base in Helmand province of Afghanistan, a NATO spokesman said in a news conference on Tuesday (January 8). "What I can tell you is that actually yesterday already a suspected member of the Afghan national army shot a British ISAF (International Security Assistance Force) soldier in Nahri Sarraj district in Helmand province," said Brigadier General Gunter Katz, spokesman for International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) "The shooter, who actually turned his weapon against members of the Afghan national army and ISAF, was shot during the incident that took place at the patrol base Hazrat in the province as I mentioned (Helmand)," said Katz. Six more British soldiers were wounded police officials in Helmand told Reuters. At least 63 NATO-led personnel were killed in 47 insider attacks across Afghanistan last year, far more than previous years, eroding trust between Afghan soldiers and their foreign counterparts as the coalition plans to withdraw most of its troops by the end of 2014. -Reuters

stands for Fake Ass Fall. The act of falling on purpose in order to make people laugh or feel sorry for you. If your fat it adds some extra laughs.
My fat friend noticed a janitor putting the slippery when wet sign in the aisle at walmart so he did a FAF and broke the sign. He ran away like he was emberassed to.

Stands for 'Fuck and Forget', a brief sexual encounter which is purely about the sex without any feelings for the person, desire to see them again or guilt at sending them on their way once gratification has been acquired. Usually, there is only one encounter between any given set of partners. Can apply to any given encounter without regard to sexual orientation. Similar to the type of transaction one might have with a whore, only no money is exchanged. Can be used to describe someone you'd like to screw solely for the sex, but would never want to see again.
Jane walks up to Steve, wondering why Steve wont call her back after that night of hot, passionate fornication: "Bitch, you were an FAF, get over it. I've already had three since you, you're yesterday's screw. Sorry." replies Steve.

This review is from: NEC Display MultiSync E223W-BK Black 22" Widescreen TN Panel, LED Backlight LCD Monitor 5ms 250cd/m2, Display Port, Height Adjust, Pivot, Tilt & Swivel, ECO Mode function – Carbon Footprint Meter, 3 Y
Pros: The picture is really nice. Much better then the previous model. When I found out the last model was no longer available, I was a bit disappointing. However, after getting these in, I actually swapped the 2 old ones on my desk any gave those to the people that needed them and kept the new ones for myself!
* I really like that front panel is touch. No buttons or anything.
* Nice range of adjustments, you can pretty much move them however you want.
* Comes with both DVI and VGA cables.
Cons: I have not run into any problems with the product.
Other Thoughts: These monitors are great. I would without a doubt recommend them to anyone.
NEC support is also really good. I had to RMA a previous model and it was quick and easy. No problems at all.
This review is from: Drobo Direct Attached Storage - 4 bay array - USB3 and Thunderbolt ports - Designed for portability (DR-MINI-1A21)
Pros: Drobo make an awesome product. I have 2 of them. One 8 bay and one 4 bay. Although I don't have this model, I thought this rating seemed very unfair.
Keep in mind that Drobo is not a usb hard drive array. Its is a hybrid RAID array. If you just want storage, this is not the way to go. The Drobo offers single or dual drive fault tolerance. This means if one of your hard drives fails, you will not lose data.
As far as taping hard drives together, yes if you just want storage this is a better way to go then drobo. HOWEVER, if you want your data to be protected against hard drive failure, this is the way to go.
**Drobo tech support is AMAZING!** Any time I have called with a question or submitted a support ticket online, they respond very fast. If you call, you get someone who speaks clear English.
Cons: Kind of spendy but you get what you pay for.
Other Thoughts: Know what you are looking for before you spend money on a product you do not need!READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: GIGABYTE GA-Z68X-UD3-B3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
Pros: Solid build, fast. Sata ports are on the back end of the board which makes for better cable management if you have the right case. I could see where this might be a problem in a small case!
Cons: 8 pin power connector is a reach for some power supplies.
CPU fan sits VERY close to the memory.
When I restart my computer it shuts down. When I try to power it up it runs for about 3 seconds then powers down again. It would randomly boot into Windows but it was highly unrealiable. I flashed the bios per another user having luck with this, however it did not work for me. RMA with Gigabyte in the process, shipping it out today.
Other Thoughts: Bought 4 of these for new builds at work. 3 of them worked flawlessly. The 4th has given me some problems.
If Gigabyte handles this in a professional matter, I will be buying more of these boards! Sometimes you get bad parts, it is not always an indication of how well its made.

Small fire at St. Johnsbury Athenaeum called arsonOctober 07,2013
ST. JOHNSBURY A local youth who is accused of starting a small fire in an elevator at the St. Johnsbury Athenaeum over the weekend is to be charged with fourth-degree arson today at Caledonia County criminal court in St. Johnsbury.
According to police, 17-year-old Robert Rohaley was arrested in connection with the fire on Railroad Street shortly before 3 p.m. Saturday.
Rohaleys arrest occurred roughly 15 minutes after police spoke with a patron who found printed posters on fire in the Athenaeums elevator and extinguished the small blaze with his foot. The patron told police he saw two young men exit the elevator and that when he entered it he found the burning items.
On the strength of physical descriptions provided by the patron and surveillance video, police said they were quickly able to locate both youths and arrested Rohaley.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Grace Phelps scored twice, while Victoria Gates, Ally Brink and Alaura Rich also...

TN: Arrival of Kola Fish Variety Signals Great Season Ahead
By PTI
Published: 01st June 2014 02:57 PM
Last Updated: 01st June 2014 02:58 PM
NAGAPATTINAM: "Kola" fish (flying fish), regarded as most delicious among fish species, has started arriving to the markets in Nagapattinam and Karaikal districts.
A type of tiny, shining species, "Kola" are even capable of flying 2-3 metres high. Apart from the taste, the speciality the fish lie in their seasonal availability.
Fisherfolk say Kola fish will be available for about three months in a year - from end of May to August.
They can be spotted only at a challenging depth in deep sea and they usually move around in groups of thousands. So, if a fisherman is able to spot a few Kola fish, he can be sure of getting several thousands of fishes from the vicinity.
Fishermen use high quality fishing nets for catching this variety of fish. Fishing of Kola can be done only during late night hours.
"Each fish fetches around Rs 3 to 5 in the market. The price peaks in the evening soon after arrival at the market and the it goes down gradually as night time approaches," said Ramalingam, a fisherman at Tarangambadi.
The fishermen say that Kola varieties are always in great demand and they are exported to neighbouring states and even to foreign countries.

Regional Economic Outlook
After an extended period of strong economic growth, many sub-Saharan African countries have been hit by a multiple of shocks—the sharp decline in commodity prices, tighter financing conditions, and a severe drought in southern and eastern Africa. Growth fell in 2015 to its lowest level in some 15 years and is expected to slow further to 3 percent in 2016. The growth performance, however, differs across countries, with most oil importers faring reasonably well. The region's medium-term prospects remain favorable but many countries urgently need to reset their policies to reinvigorate growth and realize this potential. To this end, countries should adjust fiscal policies, and for those outside monetary unions, exchange rate flexibility, as part of a wider policy package, should also generally be part of the first line of defense. In the medium term, policies targeted at diversification and financial sector development could also strengthen resilience and boost growth.
Departmental Papers on Africa
The Departmental African Paper Series covers research on Sub-Saharan Africa conducted by International Monetary Fund (IMF) staff, particularly on issues of broad regional or cross-country interest. The views expressed in these papers are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of the IMF, its Executive Board, or IMF management.

Once in a while a crime story comes along that makes you smile.
I'm talking about the jewelry thefts at the Cannes Film Festival, which to me are good, clean fun.
After all, there's no murder or mayhem, which can be icky.
I'm speaking, of course, as a crime writer.
Anyway, to make a long story short, the Cannes Film Festival has a red carpet that cries out for young actresses to swan around in borrowed gowns and glittery diamonds. There was probably a time in the world when this was unusual, but nowadays there are red carpets, young actresses, and glittery diamonds appearing somewhere on a weekly basis, filmed for television shows that no one watches.

I'm working up a load for prairie dogs. Does anyone have a powder suggestion? I'm going to be shooting 80gr. Sierra Varminter BT and I load with Winchester or CCI primers out of a Winchester .243 Featherweight (I know, not the best rifle for long range shooting, but it's a really great rifle!). I don't shoot past 200 yds normally, but I'd love to work something up that holds a group at 400 yds.

What does it take these days to impeach a president? I think the statutes say something about high crimes and misdemeanors. That should cover a lot of ground, including malfeasance and misfeasance in office.
Maybe cronyism, double dealing, stacking the deck, lying, wasteful and reckless spending, incompetence, willful disregard for the welfare of troops under his command should be thrown into the mix.
I don't have to list all the examples. You see them every day on TV and in the newspapers. You've been seeing them from day one, from questions of his birth, which has never been resolved to the satisfaction of many.
We've had two presidents face impeachment charges in my lifetime. One of them resigned to escape a trial. The other beat the charges. They were pikers compared to the scoundrel in office now.
The adage "Give them enough rope and they will hang themselves" comes to mind, but in this case it's "Give him enough rope and he'll hang us all."
There are so many heads on this hydra that it's hard to count them. And it seems to grow more each day.
Mostly they attack our freedoms and our pocketbooks, but actually they hit every aspect of our lives, and they are blatant in their use of bribery and strong-arm tactics. Corporate executives as well as mobsters sit in prisons today for conduct that President Obama continues to emulate. What except a corrupt attorney general and a spineless Congress is keeping him from being charged with conducting a continuing criminal conspiracy?
Jim Falk
I am a proud grandparent who has enjoyed watching the Greenwave football team this year.
Although Fallon came close last year, nothing compares to the excitement the 2013 team has shown week after week.
I have enjoyed watching the team and despite their loss to Winnemucca, the Greenwave came back to defeat Fernley.
When Fallon last went to a state football game, the entire community turned out. We need the community support this Saturday, too.
