CBNNews.com - RAMALLAH, West Bank - A 28-year-old former member of the PA's elite presidential guard became the eighth Palestinian to be sentenced to death by firing squad for alleged collaboration with Israel.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, whose term in office expired on January 9, has not yet given his permission to carry out the executions.
The three-judge panel found the defendant guilty of collaborating with the enemy (Israel), which caused the death of one Palestinian gunman and the arrest of several others hiding out in the Church of the Nativity during Operation Defense Shield in the spring of 2002.
According to the defendant's attorney, PA officials tortured his client repeatedly during the interrogation.
The court also charged the defendant with providing information to the Shin Bet (General Security Agency) that led to the arrest of al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades commander Adnan Abayat and his deputy, Rateb Abayat.
The IDF (Israel Defense Forces) tracked down and arrested the two senior terrorists, who were hiding in a Bethlehem hospital.
They were tried, convicted and sentenced to life in prison.

Free meals
I'm 57 years old, and ever since I attended school there's always been free lunches. Do you want the unfortunate parents to take the EBT cards to school and swipe the cards to pay for meals? Let's be real. Give the kids their peanut butter jelly sandwiches, they're getting fed.
East Gate study
I was wondering if perhaps the transportation department could do a survey on the number of cars allowed to go through the East Gate Drive light especially in the mornings? The traffic lined up to go on Whiskey Road doesn't have enough time to get through, yet the other lights are very long.
No four-lane
Hitchcock Parkway does not need to be four lanes. It would destroy the beauty of the parkway, and many homes are too near the roadway. We need more turn lanes and also truck lanes on ascending hills. A traffic light at Northwood would be helpful. I travel this daily, and I have never seen traffic backed up even during rush hour. People need to stop and enjoy the beauty.
The term "hornswoggle" means to trick someone or try to take advantage of them. My friend did try to hornswoggle me.
Crossing the road
Schofield parents were told at the open house at the beginning of the year to use the front car line or band car line; not have their students walk across the street. How to pick up kids the safe way is also on the school's website and on signs all over the school. And we wonder why the kids don't listen?

Hormone receptor status is a main factor in planning breast cancer treatment.
Some breast cancer cells grow with the help of estrogen and/or progesterone (female hormones produced in the body). These cancer cells have special proteins inside, called hormone receptors. When hormones attach to hormone receptors, the cancer cells with these receptors grow.
A pathologist determines the hormone receptor status by testing the tumor tissue removed during a biopsy.
Most (about two out of three) breast cancers are hormone receptor-positive [27].
Hormone receptor-positive breast cancers can be treated with hormone therapies. These include tamoxifen and the aromatase inhibitors, anastrozole (Arimidex), letrozole (Femara) or exemestane (Aromasin).
Hormone receptor-negative breast cancers are not treated with hormone therapies because they do not have hormone receptors.
Breast cancers that are ER-positive also tend to be PR-positive. And, cancers that are ER-negative tend to be PR-negative.
Sometimes, a breast cancer is positive for estrogen receptors, but negative for progesterone receptors. Because current hormone therapies are designed to treat ER-positive cancers, these cases are treated the same as breast cancers that are positive for both hormone receptors.
Hormone therapies slow or stop the growth of hormone receptor-positive tumors by preventing the cancer cells from getting the hormones they need to grow. They do this in a few ways.
Some hormone therapies, like the drug tamoxifen, attach to the receptor in the cancer cell and block estrogen from attaching to the receptor.
Other therapies, like aromatase inhibitors, lower the level of estrogen in the body so the cancer cells cannot get the estrogen they need to grow.
Hormone receptor status is also related to the chance of breast cancer recurrence.
Hormone receptor-positive tumors have a slightly lower chance of breast cancer recurrence than hormone receptor-negative tumors in the first five years after diagnosis. However, after five years, this difference begins to decrease and eventually goes away [9,28].
Learn more about hormone therapies.
Learn about hormone receptor status information on a pathology report.
For a summary of research studies on hormone receptor status and survival, visit the Breast Cancer Research Studies section.
HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) is a protein that appears on the surface of some breast cancer cells. It may also be called HER2/neu or ErbB2. This protein is an important part of the pathway for cell growth and survival.
About 20 percent of all breast cancers are HER2-positive (you also may hear the term "HER2 over-expression") [29-30].
HER2 status helps guide treatment.
HER2-positive breast cancers can benefit from anti-HER2 drugs, such as trastuzumab (Herceptin), which directly target the HER2 receptor [9]. Trastuzumab and other anti-HER2 targeted therapies are not used for HER2-negative cancers.
Learn about trastuzumab in the treatment of early and locally advanced breast cancer.
Learn about trastuzumab, lapatinib and other targeted therapies in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer.
Learn about emerging targeted therapies for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
All tumors should be tested for HER2 status.
The two common ways to determine HER2 status are:
Learn about HER2 status information on a pathology report.
How fast a tumor grows (known as proliferation rate) can help show how aggressive a tumor is and how likely it is to spread to other parts of the body.
Tumors with a high proliferation rate (those that are growing fast) often have a poorer prognosis than those with a low proliferation rate.
Proliferation rate is an important predictor of prognosis and whether or not a tumor will respond to chemotherapy. However, there are issues related to its measurement. So, while some health care providers may use it to help guide treatment options, others do not.
The Ki-67 test is a common way to measure proliferation rate. When cells are growing and dividing (proliferating), they make proteins called proliferation antigens. By counting the number of cells with these antigens, a pathologist can determine a tumor's proliferation rate.
The antibody to Ki-67 attaches itself to the proliferation antigen. The more cells the Ki-67 antibody attaches to in a tissue sample, the more likely the tumor cells are to grow and divide rapidly.
The result of this test is reported as the percentage of Ki-67-positive cells. It shows whether a low, moderate or high proportion of cancer cells are in the process of dividing.

How casting ruins a mystery: 'NCIS Los Angeles' edition
While watching a recent CBS's "NCIS: Los Angeles" (don't judge - ladies do love cool James), I witnessed what has to be one of the most egregious offenses on television crime dramas and it's posing a serious threat to my TV viewing (and by extension to anyone watching TV with me).
In an early scene from the aforementioned episode, Kensi Blye (Daniela Ruah) and her partner Marty Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen) are heading down the garden path of a Beverly Hills mansion when they pass a gardener. He gives the agents a passing glance, but that look, that stealthy stare tells me instantly that the gardener is not just pruning the roses, he's the bad guy, the guilty party and the reason for the episode's murder and mayhem. »Read Full Article(1)

"With insurance costs for small businesses increasing 96 percent since 2002, levying this kind of tax would adversely affect job creation and economic growth," NFIB President Dan Danner said in a statement. "The bipartisan approach to legislating taken by Representatives Boustany and Matheson should serve as a model for companion legislation in the U.S. Senate, and for so many other legislative issues being debated in Congress."
Bills to repeal the tax have been introduced but gone nowhere since Obama signed the healthcare law.

Leo Santa Cruz-Victor Terrazas: Golden Boy Wins Bid
By Rick Reeno
BoxingScene.com has been advised that Golden Boy Promotions won the WBC's purse bid for the mandatory fight between WBC super bantamweight champion Victor Terrazas (37-2-1, 21KOs) and mandatory challenger Leo Santa Cruz (24-0-1, 14KOs). Golden Boy bid $526,000, while Zanfer Promotions put down $451,000.
The belt became vacant when Abner Mares moved up to the featherweight division. Terrazas captured the title last month with a close twelve round split decision over Cristian Mijares.
Golden Boy was represented at today's purse bid by Ramiro "Dinero" Gonzalez, who now holds a 4-0 record in purse bids. Gonzalez credits his fast climb in the purse bid pound-for-pound ranks to "hard work, dedication and math skills." Before he participates, Gonzalez holds his lucky charm and lights a Catholic candle. He whispers a few prayers and then enters the purse bid to clean house.

To evaluate the effects of a daily patient reminder on seizure documentation accuracy.
Randomized controlled trial.
Monitoring unit of an academic department of epileptology.
Consecutive sample of 91 adult inpatients with focal epilepsies undergoing video-electroencephalographic monitoring.
While all patients were asked to document seizures at the beginning of the monitoring period, patients from the experimental group were reminded each day to document seizures.
Main Outcome Measure
Documentation accuracy (percentage of documented seizures).
A total of 582 partial seizures were recorded. Patients failed to document 55.5% of all recorded seizures, 73.2% of complex partial seizures, 26.2% of simple partial seizures, 41.7% of secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures, 85.8% of all seizures during sleeping, and 32.0% of all seizures during the awake state. The group medians of individual documentation accuracies for overall seizures, simple partial seizures, complex partial seizures, and secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures were 33.3%, 66.7%, 0%, and 83.3%, respectively. Neither the patient reminder nor cognitive performance affected documentation accuracy. A left-sided electroencephalographic focus or lesion, but not the site (frontal or temporal), contributed to documentation failure.
Patient seizure counts do not provide valid information. Documentation failures result from postictal seizure unawareness, which cannot be avoided by reminders. Unchanged documentation accuracy is a prerequisite for the use of patient seizure counts in clinical trials and has to be demonstrated in a subsample of patients undergoing electroencephalographic monitoring.
Seizures are the main symptom of epilepsy and the major target of its treatment. Accordingly, seizure frequency is the primary outcome measure for individual treatment and for clinical trials. Epileptic seizures can be detected objectively by video-electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring according to international classifications.1 However, because of the high costs, video-based telemetry is only applied in a few patients for a limited period. The adequacy of ambulatory EEG recording is under debate.2- 5 According to the present criterion standard, patients are asked to maintain seizure diaries. Thus, modern epileptology, to a large extent, depends on the assumption that patient seizure data provide reliable and valid information. Two studies6,7 confirmed the reliability of patient seizure memory. However, seizure counts are no subjective measure and have to be compared with objective data as derived from EEG monitoring. Former studies8- 11 revealed that most patients fail to document about half of their seizures.
This study aims at an analysis of the impact of seizure type, vigilance state, side and site of lesion or EEG focus, antiepileptic medication, and cognitive performance on patient seizure documentation failure. Furthermore, to evaluate the role of postictal seizure unawareness vs subsequent documentation failure (eg, because of carelessness), we conducted a randomized controlled trial to test the effects of a daily reminder to document seizures.
This was a prospective study with a consecutive sample of adult inpatients in a video-EEG monitoring unit at an academic department of epileptology (single units). A nonblind, randomized controlled trial on the effects of daily reminding patients to document seizures was embedded. The random allocation to the experimental groups (reminder yes vs no) was done weekly (odd or even calendar weeks).
All patients referred to the monitoring unit from October 1, 2004, to July 31, 2005, were considered to participate in the study. The inclusion criteria were adult age, diagnosis of epilepsy, recording of at least 1 epileptic seizure during the monitoring period, and written informed consent according to the Declaration of Helsinki. Exclusion criteria were history or recording of pseudoseizures and long-lasting subclinical seizure patterns and generalized epilepsy. The study was restricted to epileptic seizures to exclude unpredictable effects of unclassifiable or psychogenic seizures on seizure documentation.
The EEG examination took place with adhesive electrodes (10-20 system), with additional temporal electrodes. Patients were under permanent video monitoring and were asked to push a warning button to summon the nurse when they felt a seizure coming. In case of seizures, hospital staff came to assist the patient. Ictal and postictal testing of motor, verbal, and memory function was performed.
At the beginning of the monitoring period, all patients were asked to estimate their level of seizure awareness (rating scale: 0% indicates "unaware of all seizures"; and 100%, "recognize all seizures"). All patients received a seizure diary and were asked to carefully document every seizure event. Only the patients from the "reminder" group were reminded every morning to document all seizures during the monitoring period. The number of objective seizures was determined by analysis of the video-EEG monitoring files. Seizure types (simple partial seizures [SPS], complex partial seizures [CPS], secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures [sGTCS], and pseudoseizures) and preictal vigilance states (wakefulness or sleep) were classified by an experienced senior neurologist (A.P.) according to international classifications.1,12 To adjust for the varying duration of the monitoring periods, individual seizure frequencies per month were calculated from patient seizure counts and video-EEG data. Seizure documentation accuracy was defined as the percentage of patient-documented seizures. Patients were classified as "perfect documenters" in cases of a 100% rate of documented seizures. Only patients who experienced a respective seizure event were included in group analyses on documentation accuracies for different seizure types and vigilance states. Comprehensive neuropsychological profiles and intelligence-level estimates were available for two-thirds of the patients.13
Normal distribution was tested by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness-of-fit test. Nonparametric statistical testing was applied when required (Mann-Whitney test, Wilcoxon signed rank test, χ2 test, or Spearman rank correlation). Analysis of variance was applied to explore data for possible interaction effects. All statistical analyses were performed using a commercially available software program (SPSS 12.0G for Windows; SPSS Inc, Chicago, Illinois).
All eligible patients agreed to participate in the study. Table 1 shows the patient characteristics.
Table 2 shows the patient seizure documentation statistics by different seizure types and vigilance states. Of 582 classifiable seizures, 323 were not documented by the patients. The documentation rate clearly depended on preictal vigilance state and seizure type. Seizures occurring during sleep were not documented in 85.8% of all cases in contrast to 32.0% of undocumented seizures in the awake state. The documentation rate for CPS was clearly less than that for SPS, resulting in a different frequency distribution of seizure types depending on how seizures were documented (video-EEG: CPS, 59.6%; SPS, 32.1%; and sGTCS, 8.2%; and patient counts: SPS, 53.3%; CPS, 35.9%; and sGTCS, 10.8%). Of the seizures, 43.6% actually occurred from sleep, while the patient data suggested a far lower portion of 13.9%. Seizure frequencies per month, as projected from the monitoring period, differed significantly depending on whether they were calculated from patient or video-EEG data. Patients activated the push-button alarm ahead of 51 seizures (8.8%) but failed to document 17 (33.3%) of these seizures.
The group medians of the individual documentation accuracies are shown in Table 3 (nonnormal distribution Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness-of-fit test, P < .01 for all measures).
More than half of the patients failed to document any CPS (51%), any seizure during sleep (66%), any CPS during sleep (73%), and any SPS during sleep (75%). The rate of perfect documenters is given in Table 3. Perfect documenters experienced more SPS (4.0 vs 0.8; P = .03, Mann-Whitney tests), fewer CPS (1.0 vs 5.6; P < .001), and fewer seizures during sleep (0.7 vs 4.1; P < .001). The patient self-reported seizure awareness was weakly correlated with the percentage of documented CPS (Spearman rank correlation, r = 0.28, P = .02 [n = 71]) and, in a nonsignificant trend, with the overall documentation accuracy (r = 0.20, P = .06). Only 11 of 36 patients who self-reported to be perfectly aware of their seizures actually were perfect documenters.
The embedded randomized controlled trial on the effect of a daily reminder failed to reveal group differences in documentation accuracy measures. However, a near-significant difference regarding the group mean percentage of patient-documented SPS from the awake state (n=22), which was lower in the group of regularly reminded patients (reminder group, 49%; and no reminder group, 80%; P = .07, Mann-Whitney test), was revealed. In addition, reminding patients did not affect the rate of perfect documenters in either group (P = .95, χ2 test). This finding indicates that reminding the patient to document seizures is unlikely to improve the documentation accuracy.
The seizure documentation accuracy was independent of the number of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) at the beginning of the monitoring period and of the number of drugs withdrawn during monitoring. Patients with typical add-on drugs, such as lamotrigine (n = 35), levetiracetam (n = 37), or pregabalin (n = 18), received more AEDs at the beginning of the monitoring period, but no other differences were identified (eg, overall seizure count). In patients receiving levetiracetam, but not lamotrigine or pregabalin, the number of CPS during the awake state was significantly increased (1.9 vs 1.4; P = .048, Mann-Whitney test). Furthermore, the percentage of documented overall CPS and CPS from the awake state was significantly higher in levetiracetam-treated patients than in patients receiving other medication (CPS, 47% vs 27% [P = .04]; CPS from the awake state, 60% vs 35% [P = .048]; Mann-Whitney tests), but documentation accuracy was unchanged in 4 patients with levetiracetam withdrawal during the monitoring period. Because levetiracetam was not experimentally controlled for, this finding may be because of a random sample effect. However, it may also indicate a differential impact of AEDs on seizure awareness (eg, by affecting seizure types or shifting seizures to other vigilance states).
The accuracy of seizure documentation was not correlated with neuropsychological performance, including verbal or nonverbal memory, verbal fluency, and intelligence level, nor was it correlated with academic achievement. However, in a group comparison, perfect seizure documenters had better verbal memory performance (delayed free recall, group mean ± SD t score, 44 ± 9 vs 40 ± 10; P = .04, Mann-Whitney test) and higher school education (advanced level: 23 of 35 vs 23 of 56; χ21 = 5.2, P = .02) than did nonperfect documenters.
No effects of age, sex, or duration of epilepsy on overall documentation accuracy were obtained. However, the rate of documented sGTCS, but not of other types, was correlated with age at seizure onset (r = 0.47, P = .01 [n = 27]), indicating more accurate documentation in patients who were older at seizure onset.
Table 4 shows the data separately for patients with left- and right-sided frontal and temporal lobe epilepsy. No main effect of the site of lesion or EEG focus (temporal vs frontal) was obtained. The group mean documentation accuracy was slightly, but not significantly, lower in patients with left-sided than in patients with right-sided lesions or EEG focus (left vs right, 45% vs 67%; P=.06, Mann-Whitney test); this group difference was significant for seizures from sleeping (left vs right, 26% vs 71%; P = .04). Of 20 patients with right-sided temporal or frontal lobe epilepsy, 13 (65.0%) were perfect documenters, vs 13 of 39 patients (33.3%) with left-sided temporal or frontal lobe epilepsy (χ21 = 5.4, P = .02) (nonclassified data: P = .06, Mann-Whitney test). The effects of the factor site (temporal vs frontal lobe) and side (left vs right) on documentation accuracy were tested by an explorative 2-factorial analysis of variance that revealed a main effect for side but not for site and no interaction effect. No effect was obtained when the side of the epileptic focus was defined relatively to the speech-dominant hemisphere (Wada test, 15 patients; functional magnetic resonance imaging, 2 patients; results: 10 left sided, 5 bilateral, and 2 right dominant). This finding indicates a role of left hemisphere functional disturbance for seizure unawareness that may be more pronounced if the left frontal lobe is involved.
Former studies8- 10 and the findings of the present study give evidence that patient seizure counts do not reflect the objective seizure and risk burden. Only a few patients (38.5%) were able to document all seizures accurately, whereas most of the patients fail to document the major part of their seizures (total rate of undocumented seizures, 55%). The low documentation accuracy is unlikely to result from the specific conditions of video-EEG monitoring (eg, lying in bed)8,14 because under ambulatory conditions quite similar findings were obtained.11
Underreporting may be a misleading term because it implies that patients could have reported the correct figures if they had put more effort into it. However, the embedded randomized controlled trial on the effects of a patient reminder could not reveal any evidence that urging patients to document and supporting their memory increases documentation accuracy. No effect of cognitive performance on documentation accuracy was obtained. Finally, former studies6,7 already demonstrated the reliability of patient seizure memory. Thus, it is unlikely that patients are careless or forget to document. Underreporting is, rather, caused by processes that are out of the patient's control. For example, seizures occurring during sleeping (85.8%) and CPS (73.2%) are at the highest risk of not being documented. Seizure-induced seizure unawareness is a frequent, but rather unrecognized, postictal symptom particularly associated with seizures from sleeping and with CPS.
The mechanisms underlying seizure unawareness are not yet clear. In our sample, besides the vigilance state and the seizure type, the left-sided focus or lesion, but not the site, of the epileptic focus or lesion (temporal or frontal lobe) contributed moderately to seizure unawareness, which is in accord with former studies.9,10 In contrast to the study by Blum et al,8 sGTCS were recognized and documented even more often than CPS. From neurocognitive studies15,16 of the ictal state and from the definition of CPS, including impaired consciousness, it is clear that the patient is dependent on unambiguous postictal bodily signs (eg, muscle pain, tongue bite, or enuresis), environmental changes (eg, broken glass), or social reactions (eg, caring proxies) to become aware that a seizure had occurred.
Our study revealed a possible interaction of seizure awareness with anticonvulsant medication, such that patients receiving levetiracetam had better documentation accuracy than did patients receiving another AED. This explorative finding may result from a random sample effect but may also indicate specific effects of AEDs on seizure awareness and documentation accuracy. However, true seizure efficacy can be calculated from patient data only under the assumption that documentation accuracy is unaffected by the treatment.
This study was restricted to adult patients with partial seizures. Findings and conclusions may not be applicable to patients with primarily generalized seizures or to pediatric patients under all-day observation. Furthermore, most of our patients underwent video-EEG monitoring for presurgical workup, which may also have biased the pattern of results.
In conclusion, patient seizure counts are not valid and reports of complete seizure freedom may need objective evaluation (eg, regarding a driver's license). Seizure underreporting is a consequence of postictal seizure unawareness, rather than of careless documentation. Reminding the patient to document seizures will, therefore, not improve documentation accuracy. For premarket evaluation of new treatments for partial seizures (drugs and devices), additional EEG-based seizure data are required. An unambiguous demonstration of unchanged seizure awareness (documentation accuracy) under the new treatment based on EEG monitoring is a prerequisite of calculating valid seizure frequency reduction (percentage) from (invalid) patient seizure counts. Alternative designs for clinical trials, including video-EEG monitoring, have been proposed by Bien and Elger.17

Marketing and Collaboration, Department of Energy Resources (DOER)
Daylight Savings Time is over, a clear hint that the warm weather is past. Standing on the train station platform this morning removed any doubt for me; I needed my gloves. It got me thinking about what we can do when the temperature plunges to keep our homes more comfortable and spend less on heat at the same time.
The Globe published a good starter called How to winterize your home: A procrastinator's manual with 8 tips. U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Energy Savers Guide: Tips on Saving Money and Energy at Home is a great jumping-off point for lots of practical advice. The site makes a critical point for homeowners. To paraphrase:
The key to savings is to take a whole-house approach — view your home as an energy system with interdependent parts. For example, your heating system is not just a furnace — it's a heat-delivery system that starts at the furnace and delivers heat throughout your home using a network of ducts (or pipes if you have a boiler). Even a top -of-the-line, energy efficient furnace or boiler will waste a lot of fuel if the ducts or pipes, walls, attic, windows, and doors are leaky or poorly insulated.
Start off with these tips and use the DOE site to gather details on specific topics such as insulation, lighting, appliances, even renewable energy options (my house now has photovoltaic panels on our roof, but that's another story):
- Install a programmable thermostat. Believe it or not, there are ones that are easy to use and no longer require a PhD (I've never figured out the one in our living room).
- Set your programmable thermostat as low as is comfortable in the winter and lower the setpoint when you're sleeping or away from home.
- Clean/replace filters on furnaces once a month or as recommended, and air vents, baseboard heaters, and radiators as needed. Make sure they're not blocked by furniture, carpeting, or drapes.
- Eliminate trapped air from hot-water radiators once or twice a season; if unsure about how to, contact a professional.
- Place heat-resistant radiator reflectors between exterior walls and the radiators.
- Keep the draperies and shades on your south-facing windows open during the day to allow the sunlight to enter your home and closed at night.
- Check windows and doors for air leaks and seal/caulk any you find.
If you have an oil burner, check this tip sheet. The state's Home Heating Consumer Assistance web page has (hot) soup-to-nuts information on weatherization services and fuel assistance, as well as recommendations to minimize your winter heating bill. Mass Save® is the place to start for a home energy assessment that can lead to all sorts of money-saving opportunities.
Sure, we're New Englanders. We're tough and don't mind the cold (so much). Then again, we don't have anything to prove. Why not get comfortable and save some money, too? Might make any Patriots' losses easier to take.

The client is accredited training provider by MerSeta, Engineering companies are obliged to train their employees/learners through companies accredited with MerSeta.My client provide training on behalf of Engineering companies and is subject to audit by MerSeta.Once MerSeta is happy with the audit conducted on my client they release a grant to an Engineering company which they then releases it to my Client
My client got a letter from SARS saying he owes Vat?I believe my client is supposed to be exempted for Vat because the nature of the funds/income is getting is mainly from MerSeta grants, if you agree which channel must I follow to be able to prove that my client should be exempted from VAT on the grants received from MerSeta
Mphiri Phalane
Hi Mphiri
Assuming you are referring to grants received from public authorities
as defined in the Vat Act ,my suggestion
is that you need to read the whole SARS Interpretation Note 39 carefully, paying particular
regard to the following paragraphs : 5. , 6.4 , 6.9 and 6.11.2.
I believe once you have done this ,you will be
in good position to take the matter further with SARS.
Good Luck.

influence on public policy / provision of services, e.g. the free school revolution allowing an increase in publically funded faith schools which are very divisive for society , promotion of creationism, attempts to change abortion law etc
word of mouth from other humanists / atheists
yes, time permitting
issues - free schools/faith schools in particular. types of activism - anything that is effective but some humour certainly helps
John Dodds, semi-retired biology teacher, life long athiest, passionate about the necessity of a secular society,apalled by the increasing upsurge of irrationality e.g. the importing of creationism from the US

Harrison Ford and Asa Butterfield suit up for battle in new 'Ender's Game' stills
Plus: Get a closer look at the zero-G battle room
"Ender's Game" is hitting theaters in less than a month, but Lionsgate is eager to show off the film's special effects -- including the Battle Room -- and notable cast, which includes Harrison Ford, Hailee Steinfeld, and, as Ender Wiggin, Asa Butterfield. Based on Orson Scott Card's bestseller, the Gavin Hood-directed film features a group of kids drafted into a war against a seemingly vicious alien race.

Black Ministers Follow Obama on Same-Sex Marriage Stance
Rev. Irene Monroe: For African-American ministers, the liability of Obama losing his 2012 re-election bid is far greater than being publicly outed for not being in lockstep with their homophobic brethren.
Same-Sex Marriage Ban: Bigotry Isn't Only a Southern Brew
Sheria Reid: Thirty-one states have amended their constitutions to declare that marriage is between a man and a woman. Unless the South has cloned itself, this problem extends way beyond the South.

Some of the apprentices in Horn's in-house program learn about manufacturing.
Duane Drape,
Chris Koepfer
Chris Koepfer has been involved in metalworking for 30 years. His first 14 were in the machine tool group at Cincinnati Milacron where he honed his technical writing skills in turning, machining and grinding before joining Modern Machine Shop in 1992 as an associate editor. In 2001, he helped found MMS' sister publication Production Machining, which speaks to the precision machined parts segment of the industry. Chris is graduate of Xavier University in Cincinnati, as are three of his four children, and an XU basketball fan—which can be as daunting as working in metalworking, he says.
Some of the apprentices in Horn's in-house program learn about manufacturing.
Duane Drape,
Next up was a drive down the road to Emag in Salach, Germany. Head of Marketing Oliver Hagenlocher was in China, so he arranged for us to meet with Michael Sauter, head of Emag Academy, and Hans-Georg Hommel, senior project engineer. The group that is Emag represents 10 different and discrete machine tool builders. The idea is to offer a complete manufacturing process solution regardless of the operations needed. As an aside, Hans has spent time in the USA—in 1992 he set up the company's operations in Troy, Michigan. In 1994, the company moved to Farmington Hills, Michigan, where Bob Cramer and later, Markus Heßbrueggen, set up and ran the company. To get your head around what 10 machine tools companies are doing together as a group, visit Emag's website.

His lot sizes average 10.8 pieces, and the variety of jobs runs into the thousands, yet they are thriving and manufacturing in Germany where it's not cheap. I think there is a lesson in this somewhere.
Here is an example of components that Schwanog produces on its bar-fed machining centers.

Tortilla Soup is rated out of 5 by 12.
Rated 5 out of 5 by JennyW from Delicious! This soup is so good. I can't believe this great of a tasting soup is only minutes to make in a vitamix. I did not use the taco seasoning… instead I used my Mexican spices like cilantro, chili powder, and Mexican oregano.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Santarp from Excellent and easy! Great recipe! One thing I end up doing is instead of adding chicken into the blender, I shred it with some last minute tortilla chips and then mix it in - only because I like a bit more texture!

Rated 1 out of 5 by baskins from Not sure what I did wrong... I thought I made this exactly as described, although I have a 750 Pro model. I used the "soup' setting. This turned out to be a disaster. There was no real flavor, and I refused to serve the soup. Made a 2nd batch to use up some of the ingredients, but it was no better than the first. I wish Vitamix had some sort of 'converter' to switch these recipes for the different models because the model was really the only difference in my prep and the recipe description. Not sure I'll try this again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bonzee44 from Super easy! I continue to use the Vitamix daily for smoothies but had gotten away from the soups while we were out of our house during renovations. I watched the QVC presentation and got back on board with this recipe......delicious!

Rated 5 out of 5 by CSMD from A fabulous soup! Each and every time I make this soup, I receive such wonderful, positive comments - in fact they are so complimentary I end up telling them I made it in my vitamix just minutes before I served it - I haven't the heart to pretend it took me hours to prepare lol

Rated 5 out of 5 by emersoj2 from Delicious and easy! I thought this recipe was super easy to make! we doubled the recipe and our vitamix was able to handle it. Such a easy healthy meal! We pulsed in spinach and added black beans and avocado to the soup bowls. We will definitely be making this again!

Does "thin slice yellow squash" mean: "one thin slice of yellow squash and throw the rest out" or "whole yellow squash thinly sliced"
You can use how ever much of the yellow squash you would like. This recipe calls for 1 thin slice out of the whole yellow squash. Perhaps you can try the seasonal squash frittata recipe with the leftover, https://www.vitamix.com/Recipes/Squash-Frittata/C-Series/Variable-Speed/Classic-64-Ounce?referer_st=squah&sc=recipe
Date published: 2016-08-30
Can you freeze this soup to eat later?
Of course you can!
Date published: 2016-08-18
I have 5300 which does not have a high/variable setting, only pulse. What adjustments should I make? Thank you
If using the 64 oz. low profile container you will want to double the ingredients in this recipe. You will also just want to take your machine from 1-10. If this case, ten will be your high.
Date published: 2016-08-09
When it says "1 thin slice" of squash, pepper, etc. is that a vertical (length) slice or a horizontal (width/round) slice?
The shape does not matter, you will want about 1 oz of each.
Date published: 2016-08-09
For this recipe can it be done with the S-series blender ??
You can certainly make this recipe in your S-Series blender. You will just need to cut the ingredient list in half.
Date published: 2016-05-18
Is there a measurement that could be used in place of 1 thin slice? Thanks!
Nope its just one thin slice. Simple. Its not baking so precise mearuements are not necessary.
Date published: 2016-06-28
hello I have a vita mix and I'm having problems making the tortilla soup. when I make it gets foamy. i am burping the taste of the soup for a day. how do I make the soup without having lots of foam, a little bit of foam is ok but not with lots of it
If you add a little flax seed to the soup the foam will settle down, or you can add more of the bean and other ingredients to create a thicker soup and this will bring the foam down.
Date published: 2016-01-19
I'm assuming that I'm supposed to cook most of these ingredients before placing them in the Vitamix container, but it doesn't say that anywhere.
The high speed and 6 minutes cooks the raw food, no pre cooking!
