- SC asking Centre to intervene is ray of hope for Karnataka
BENGALURU: Amid the setback to Karnataka regarding release of water to Tamil Nadu, the Supreme Court's observation on Tuesday asking Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi to facilitate a meeting of both states with the Centre seems to be a ray of hope. For the first time, the court has brought the Centre into the realm of the long-standing dispute between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu over sharing of Cauvery water. The apex court wants the Centre to act as the mediator, something Karnataka has been asking for a long time. Chief minister Siddaramaiah had written eight letters to Prime Minister Narendra Modi seeking his intervention in the matter, but there was no response. In 1995, then Prime Minister A B Vajpayee had intervened, but it was in his capacity as chairperson of the Cauvery Management Authority which has been replaced by the Cauvery Supervisory Committee now. The committee comprises bureaucrats -- chief secretaries of both states and is headed by the Union water resources secretary. According to sources, the dispute also requires political intervention to arrive at a solution. This can happen if the PM intervenes by convening meeting of CMs of the riparian states, they added.

- ECG, X-ray machines lie idle in state hospitals
JAIPUR: New medical equipment worth crores is lying unused in government hospitals across the state, prompting the government to draft a comprehensive procurement policy. District hospitals, community health centres and primary health centres in the state together have not bothered to install about 641 new medical equipment, making it a huge waste of essential resources. Besides, a lot of equipment in hospitals, attached to medical colleges, is lying idle and kept in stores. The uninstalled equipment, required for medical diagnosis, include ECG and X-ray machines. According to health department officials, there could be various reasons for not installing them - lack of technicians and trained staff to operate them, shortage of patients to use equipment meant for specific disease diagnosis, availability of better high-tech systems, or because hospitals already have enough equipment. On September 2, the health department wrote to all principal medical officers of district hospitals, directing them to install unused equipment for the benefit of patients. Not only in district hospitals, the situation is equally bad and alarming in hospitals attached to medical colleges. According to the recent comptroller and auditor general (CAG) report, Jaipur's Sawai Man Singh (SMS) Medical College purchased ECG machines without needing them. The CAG report said that that the college purchased 41 ECG machines for Rs 36 lakh. "Of these, eight ECG machines, purchased for the medicine department of SMS Hospital, were moved to cardiology department without receiving any request from them," the report said, adding that the physical verification, jointly done by the audit and cardiology departments, further revealed that four of these eight machines were still kept packed in the store. Similarly, the CAG report revealed that there was no one to operate the Rs 1.93-crore dual-head variable-angle gamma camera bought by Acharya Tulsi Regional Cancer Treatment and Research Institute (ATRCTRI), Bikaner, forcing patients to go elsewhere. The health department is now taking measures to keep a tab on equipment available in district hospitals, community health and primary health centres. On October 2, 2015, the department had launched e-Upkaran, an innovative portal to ensure proper monitoring of all equipment purchased. According to e-Upkaran, there are a total of 41,604 of 147 types of biomedical equipment. "It's a web-based platform which deals with the management and maintenance of equipment. It keeps a list of uninstalled, not-in-use equipment as those requiring repairs," Dr Prem Singh, nodal officer, inventory & supply chain, said.on-repairable equipment: 873

- X-ray, ultrasound services to resume from Saturday as radiologists defer strike
LUCKNOW: After a two day pan-India strike, radiologists in the city and state have deferred their strike for the next two months following talks with the union government. Healthcare services in X-ray, ultrasounds, CT-scans and other radiology procedures in the private sector will thus resume from September 3. There are around 300 registered radiologists in Lucknow and 13,000 in the country who had been on strike. Radiologists had been demanding shelving of certain provisions of the Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques Act, 1994 (PC-PNDT). According to the Indian Radiological and Imaging Association (IRIA) that had given call for the nationwide strike, radiologists were harassed for minor clerical errors, not wearing aprons, not displaying PC-PNDT boards, where their machines are seized and mistakes equated to crime of sex determination.
- Delhi high court order on passport norms offers ray of hope for city's single moms
KOLKATA: The Delhi high court order that passport issuing officials cannot insist an applicant to mention his father's name in the travel document has given a ray of hope to city's single mothers who have been facing problems in getting passports for their children. Last month, women and child development minister Maneka Gandhi had urged external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj to amend passport rules that make listing the father's name mandatory. Single mother Anindita Sarbadhicari welcomed the decision describing it is as a "big step". The film-maker, who opted for IVF, doesn't know the identity of the sperm donor. "How do I get hold of his name for my son's passport?" she had asked while debating over the problems in getting a passport for her son, Agnisnato. Monday's order by Justice Sanjeev Sachdeva came while hearing a plea by a man whose request for renewal of passport was rejected by the regional passport office in Delhi on the ground that he failed to mention the name of his father. This petitioner had said that since his mother had divorced his father in 2003 on account of desertion and neglect, he refused to acknowledge him as his father in the passport form. During the arguments, the passport authority had told the court that it was mandatory to provide the father's name since its software does not accept applications without that. The court directed for a passport to be issued to the person within three working days. "This is a very good news for all of us. It just goes on to show that India is adapting to the changing times," she said. Daughter of a single mother, software professional Somdatta Ray had trouble getting her passport last year from the regional passport office in Kolkata because she had refused to list her father's name. "My parents are divorced and I didn't want to use my father's name on my passport. When I applied online, it wasn't mandatory for me to disclose his name. But when I went to the regional passport office, I was humiliated for not making this disclosure," Ray recounted. The recent Delhi high court decision is very empowering for her. "This Delhi high court order is a huge step. Now I too will apply for my passport again. If there is any problem, I can refer to the Delhi high court case," she said. However, Sarbadhicari pointed out that for the larger interest, it is important to have a law that makes it mandatory to issue passport even if the applicant doesn't choose to mention his or her father's name. "Unless it is a law, this will remain an individual fight. If a regional passport office refuses to accept an application, the onus will be on the applicant to fight a case in a court of law. I hope in the future days the law is amended so that every time there is a problem people don't need to move court."
- Kalyan Ray makes a comeback with Zulfiqar
Four years after he was seen in Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury's Aparajita Tumi, Kalyan Ray is all set to make a comeback on the big screen with Srijit Mukherji's ambitious next, Zulfiqar. The actor, who will be seen in a guest appearance in the film, is excited to be a part of the project. "It is a small role but comes at a very crucial and dramatic moment in the film. Speaking of the dry spell after Aparajita Tumi, he said, "There were no offers after that film. Talks were on for a project but it didn't see the light of day owing to funding distresses. I knew Srijit was making Zulfiqar, adapting two of William Shakespeare's tragedies, Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra. So, when he called and offered me a role, I instantly gave my nod. I have full faith in his film making. His intelligence and handling of stories are praiseworthy," said Ray. Talking about the character, he said, "There's a surreal element in it. Although it's a small role, my character has the most crucial line in the film." Srijit, who wanted Kalyan Ray and Biplab Dasgupta on board for the film, said, "Not only do they both take keen interest in English literature but they are also great human beings. I'm happy and honoured that Kalyanda agreed to play a guest appearance in my film. His character comes at a crucial juncture in the movie. He enigmatic personality and baritone voice made him the perfect choice for the role," said Srijit.

- Farmers' outfits see Babbar's appointment with ray of hope
Lucknow: The recent appointment of Raj Babbar as the new chief of the Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee seems to have given some ray of hope to a number of organisations working for the farmers in UP and also across India. Raj Babbar has enjoyed tremendous reputation among some of the prominent farmers' organisations, who either have extended help to Babbar or have benefited by him. Elaborating further on this, UP president of Kisan Manch, Shekhar Dixit, said, "Raj Babbar enjoys good rapport among at least 3-4 prominent organisations in Uttar Pradesh. In the past, during our protest held at Delhi's Jantar Mantar, Babbar helped us." Dixit further added that it was Raj Babbar, who raised loud voice against the land acquisition bill brought by the current NDA government. "The voice raised by Babbar was so loud that even the Congress party leadership realized his utility, and subsequently made him a Rajya Sabha MP from Uttarakhand," Dixit said. He added that Jan Morcha, whose Babbar was once a part, is gradually being revamped. "A meeting of all the prominent leaders who were once associated with the Jan Morcha is likely to be held in Delhi in the first week of August, after which the actual plan of action would be declared," Dixit said. Meanwhile, Akhilesh Shukla, the spokesperson of Kisan Manch in a statement issued has condemned the vulgar statement made by expelled BJP leader Daya Shankar Singh, and sought stringent action against him.
- Barauni fertiliser plant gives a ray of hope for locals
PATNA/BARAUNI: Tuesdays union cabinet decision to revive the Barauni plant has once again gave a ray of hope with great deal of excitement and joy as this was the long pending demand of people of the region. The union cabinet has approved the revival of defunct fertilizer units in Barauni, Gorakhpur and Sindri. In 2008 Ram Vilas Paswan who was then union chemical and fertilizer minister under the UPA-1 government had inaugurated its revival however, the move failed to take off due to unavailability of natural gas and Barauni not being under the natural gas grid. The ceremony was attended by big three of state politics Nitish Kumar - who was the chief minister besides Lalu Prasad who was union railway minister and Ram Vilas Paswan as union fertilizer minister. Barauni Fertiliser plant started its commercial production in 1976. Total plant area is spread over 350 acre and Township spread over 260 acre of land. Produced Urea with plant capacity was 3.3 lakh metric tonne annually. Used Naphtha as feedstock for producing urea which became financially nonviable as natural gas later became the cheaper source material. The plant was finally closed down in 2000 by the Vajpayee led BJP government. With empty quarters, the entire Barauni fertiliser township premises (Urbarak Nagar) present a desolate look now. However, the 'Urvarak Nagar Kendriya Vidyalaya' and a DAV school besides a SBI branch have been operating from the 'Urvarak Nagar' campus. Old timers say during it's hey days the township presented a model of modern lifestyle with officer's club and social welfare club being hub of cultural and sports activities. Over thousand employees including officers and workers of the plant used to live in over 600 quarters located inside the campus. Dr Abhilas who was a medical officer at the fertilizer township hospital before being given VRS in 2002 said: "though I am running my private clinic now still it's great joy to hear the news since I was associate with the organisation for long and am emotionally connected to it". Gita Singh a resident of Bihat village situated close to the closed unit who served as plant engineer said : "this has been the long cherished dream of the people of the region. Chandan who is engaged in industrial construction business and is also a resident of Bihat village said:" it's like dream come true for many of us since both Barauni Fertilizer and Barauni Refinery plants would undergo major projects soon since the latter is to undergo major expansion project also. With expansion work at Barauni Thermal Power Station would definitely pave a way for new business opportunities and employment. The setting up of new unit at Barauni will meet the growing demand of urea of Bihar, West Bengal and Jharkhand. It will also ease the pressure on railway and road infrastructure due to long distance transportation of urea from Western and Central regions and thereby saving in government subsidy on freight. These units were lying defunct since their closure during 1990-2002. Therefore, the units and other associated facilities were lying unutilized. It is important to mention here that there is no functional urea unit in the eastern part of the country except two small units at Namrup (Assam).

The Cowboys defense also was opportunistic against the Cyclones, forcing three turnovers and turning two of those into 14 points. Senior cornerback Justin Gilbert's interception of Iowa State starting quarterback Sam Richardson's pass and his 31-yard return for a touchdown in the game's first five minutes gave the Cowboys a 14-0 lead.
In the third quarter, senior linebacker Joe Mitchell and senior defensive end Tyler Johnson teamed up for a play that all but sewed up the victory. Mitchell stripped the ball from Iowa State tight end Ernst Brun Jr. after a short gain at midfield, and Johnson grabbed it before taking off toward the end zone, where he ended up 54 yards later for the first touchdown of his OSU playing career.
"It started with our defense. Defensively, we were terrific with two touchdowns. They set the tempo," said Cowboys head coach Mike Gundy. "Joe Mitchell was just perfect on the strip and it was really neat to see Tyler pick it up, get a block and then run down and score. It's nice to see those defensive guys score."
Roland got his first career start on Saturday, and had 54 rushing yards and scoring runs of 2 and 6 yards as the Cowboys took a 28-20 halftime lead. But the junior from Dallas took over the game in the second as he became the first OSU running back since Kendall Hunter in 2010 to break the 200-yard rushing mark.
He carried five times for 41 yards on a nine-play, 53-yard drive which resulted in Ben Grogan's 23-yard field goal to give the Cowboys a 31-20 lead. The defense forced a three-and-out and Roland and the Cowboys were back in business on their own 33-yard line, and it only took two plays to score again.
Roland gained nine yards on first down and then went 58 yards while breaking several tackles while following the blocks of receivers Josh Stewart and Jhajuan Seales into the end zone to give the Cowboys a 38-20 lead midway through the third quarter.
"We really ran the same play for three straight plays. I just tempo-ed it, and then once I hit the hole I just saw the safety, and I'm definitely not about to go down with the safety (only). I hit a little spin move and then I saw Josh, and he said to follow him, so that's what I did. I followed Josh and Jhejuan Seales down the field," Roland said of the 58-yard touchdown run.
"It was a great team win. Give all the credit to the offensive line and the receivers who were blocking their tails off the whole game, and I was just cutting off their blocks," said Roland, whose 219 rushing yards was the best effort since Kendall Hunter ran for 257 yards in the 2010 season opener against Washington State.
"Like coach says, we've got to give relentless effort, and that was my mindset today, not to go down on the first tackle or even the second tackle. I worked my tail off during winter workouts and the whole summer. I knew I was going to have a chance at some point to show what I could really do. I just want to give all the credit to the offensive line and receivers."
The Cowboys were only averaging 136.5 rushing yards per game (95th best in the nation) entering Saturday's game. But behind the blocking of Daniel Koenig, Brandon Webb, Jake Jenkins, Parker Graham and Brandon Garrett they rolled up 342 yards, including 235 in the second half.
Roland led the way with 219 rushing yards but quarterback Clint Chelf also added 85 yards on just nine carries.
"Des Roland was terrific today. I thought our offensive line was good. I think they've been average and below average throughout the year, depending upon what the game was, but I thought they were good today," said Gundy.
"I thought that we moved the nose guard and the three technique and we played on their side of the ball, which allowed our running backs to make cuts at the line of scrimmage or on their side of the football, and then (Roland) ran through arm tackles, and that's where you saw the difference in the running game today.
"I thought that Clint was average throwing the ball (he completed just 10 of 26 passes for 78 yards with one touchdown and an interception) but I thought he managed the run game, the way we wanted to run the football and where we wanted to run it, and ran effectively himself. He did a nice job on the read zone," added Gundy.
Gundy liked what he saw from Roland, whose 26 carries Saturday was double his previous high in a game (13 against Louisiana on Sept. 15, 2012).
"He really did (show a workhorse mentality). What's most impressive for us is the blocking up front. Again, without watching the tape I think it's going to be obvious that we were able to move their linemen and make cuts down field, but he ran through arm tackles. If plays are blocked well you're going to get five, six, seven yards, and if you run through an arm tackle it's going to be 12 or 15 (yards), and that's what it comes down to. That's what has happened around here forever with Keith Toston, Kendall Hunter and Joe Randle. When that happens, that's where you get your bigger plays.
"It was a good win for everybody."

I will admit that I am not a fan of Boston sports. However, I do respect what their teams have been able to do over the past decade. This year has truly been amazing.
The Red Sox have become the prohibitive favorites to win the American League.
The Patriots continue to demolish opponent after opponent.
The Celtics are healthy and the cream of the crop in the Eastern Conference.
The Bruins keep winning with amazing goalie play.
So can the Boston teams capture the championship in each major sport this year? It would be an amazing feat.

Gov. Corbett's administration - along with city and state officials - is working to assemble a funding package that could pump as much as $100 million more into the coffers of the Philadelphia School District, according to sources with knowledge of the high-level talks.
But the money, which could include federal funds the state would send to the cash-strapped district, might come with hefty strings attached, they said.
The additional aid would be contingent on the district's ability to obtain major concessions from the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers, including requiring teachers to work a longer school day and contribute to their health-care coverage, sources said.

JAPAN: Nippon Steel, Toyota agree on steel price cut of around 5%
By Graeme Roberts | 27 January 2012
Nippon Steel and Toyota Motor have agreed to reduce steel product prices for the October to March period by JPY5,000 (US$64.80) a ton compared with the previous fiscal half year, sources told Kyodo News.
While the rate of the price cut varies depending on the type of steel product, the prices of products for automobile manufacturing will be around 5% lower than they were in the April to September period.
The prices were raised by about JPY13,000 ($168.50) per ton for the first half of fiscal 2011 due to rises in the cost of raw materials such as iron ore but Toyota had asked for price reductions for the second half of the fiscal half, which ends March 2011, as raw material costs dwindled amid the global economic slump, the sources said.
Although steelmakers protested against large price cuts as they are struggling with export operations due to competition from Chinese and South Korean rivals, Nippon Steel eventually agreed to reduce the prices, the sources said.
The move is expected to ease the burden on Japanese automakers, which have been suffering from the effects of the strong yen that eats into overseas profits of export-related companies when repatriated, Kyodo News noted.

Manufacturers are still trying to work
out final details on pricing for Intel-based Ultrabooks, but the devices
are on the way. For those that like the form-factor and weight on Apple's highly popular MacBook Air range, but can't be bothered with Apple's pricing or OS X, Toshiba
is serving up a fine alternative with the Portege Z830.
Toshiba has worked some serious magic on the Portege Z830 as
it manages to incorporate a 13.3" display (1366x768) and second generation Intel
Core processors into a frame weighing in at under 2.5 pounds. Part of the low
weight can be attributed to the Portege Z830's magnesium alloy body.
Although Toshiba won't tell us how fast the processors are
in the Portege Z830, the specs are quite amazing. It will come with a 128GB
SSD, backlit and spill-resistant keyboard, two USB 2.0 ports, one USB 3.0 port,
GbE port, Secure Digital reader, HDMI-out, and stereo speakers.
to Engadget, the notebook
features an 8-cell battery, can be equipped with up to 6GB of DDR3 memory, and will
have an optional Core i7 processor upgrade available.
"The Portégé Z830 Series sets a new standard for thin
and light systems, not just in portability, but also in affordability for such
cutting-edge designs," said Carl Pinto, vice president of product
development, Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., Digital Products
Division. "Toshiba's engineering achievements and expert craftsmanship
have resulted in a brilliant and fully thought-through innovation that exceeds
expectations, perfect for both mobile business professionals and
And keeping with Intel's mandate, the 0.63"-thin
Portege Z830 will start at under $1,000 (we're guessing $999) when it launches later this year. That would make
the lighter, better-spec'd Toshiba Ultrabook $300 cheaper than the entry-level
13" MacBook Air.

Currently, Taiwan-based Catcher Technology and Foxconn Technology both have more than 10,000 CNC lathes for metal chassis production.Since the two players are already the suppliers of Apple, ultrabook players will need to compete for the remaining capacity from the two firms, leaving players unable to fully ship enough devices.
quote: Unfortunately, the pre-production model we played with lacked the company's honeycomb ribbed internals, so we can't make assumptions on rigidity or how sturdy it'll be. The company did assure us that it was aware of the Ultrabook's squishy nature, and that production units would be much more rigid. Regardless, we were smitten with the Z830's thickness (or lack thereof) and its comely magnesium skin, which compares favorably to the existing thin and light champion, the MacBook Air.

Liverpool Football Club is in a phase of transition and change. This past summer saw the parting of ways with Rafa Benitez, the arrival and departure of Roy Hodgson and the return of King Kenny Dalglish.
The much despised and damaging George Gillett and Tom Hicks ownership era came to an inevitably disgraceful end with the club finding itself in the courts both in England and America. As the dust settled, New England Sports Venture headed by John Henry, took over the club and brought in future change.
Boardroom and backroom changes have seen the corporate side of Liverpool Football Club take on a whole new outlook.
In the midst of all this upheaval, a young Liverpool defender has begun to make the headlines.
Martin Kelly is the latest in a long line of Liverpool right backs that have aspired to become the best the club has ever seen. Having made his way through the Academy, Kelly certainly has the right background and with impressive recent performances, he may well go on to rack up the appearances.
So much Liverpool related media attention has been focused on whether Kelly should play on Liverpool's right side of defence or should it be Glen Johnson. Dalglish's first team sheet on his return to the helm of the Reds featured Kelly as his right back. Whether Johnson would have played there if he was not at his child's birth is neither here nor there, Kelly put in a performance that suggested Dalglish may stick with him.
Either these two may go on to become Liverpool legends at right back.
But who is the greatest ever right back of Liverpool Football Club?
The following is a list of Liverpool Football Club's Top 10 Right Backs Ever!

So do u hear from manny everyday even when he doesn't have a fight coming up?? U make it seems like theres news about pac everyday even when he doest have a upcoming fight. The reason ur hearing from him now is because he has a fight coming up and the reason Floyd's name is being brought up is because he's being asked about him. Let me ask u this, did manny or any of his team mention Floyd's name or make videos about Floyd when they were not asked about him?

2015 State Regulations List: Feeding & Baiting Deer
This list contains excerpts from published state regulation guides on feeding and/or baiting deer. Often we include our interpretation of whether mineral supplements, such as Lucky Buck Mineral, are legal during the spring and summer growing seasons. Regulations may be changed or revoked by your state at any time. It is your responsibility to check with your state government for an up-to-date interpretation. This information was last collected and updated in its entirety on 10-03-2015.
"For the 2013-14 deer hunting season, 220-2-.157 of Alabama's Game, Fish, Furbearers, and Other Wildlife Regulations provided a rebuttable presumption that any feed located beyond 100 yards and out of the hunters sight would not be considered within the 'area' being hunted defined "area" as within 100 yards and line of sight of the hunter. This allowed deer managers to continue to use supplemental feed during deer season and still hunt the property as long as the feed was beyond 100 yards and not within the hunter's line of sight, with "not within the line of sight" being defined as hidden from view by natural vegetation or naturally occurring terrain features. Hunting with the aid of bait is still illegal, but a clearer definition of "area" is now in place." (pgs 8,10)
Regarding National Forest Lands: "No placing, leaving , depositing any food, bait, or refuse in a manner likely to attract or concentrate any wildlife..." (pg 6)
Phone: 602-942-3000

"Using edible or ingestible substances, other than water or salt based products produced for the livestock industry, to aid in the taking of big game is unlawful." (pg 106)
Phone: 602-942-3000
Baiting is the direct or indirect placing, exposing, depositing, distributing or scattering of salt, grain or other feed that could serve to lure or attract wildlife to, on or over an area where hunters are attempting to take them.

(pg 20)
Phone: 850-488-4676 or 386-758-0525

Baiting is allowed in the Southeast Special Regulations Area by permit only. Elsewhere in the state, it is unlawful to hunt in or around any area where artificial or natural bait, food, hay, grain, fruit, nuts, salt, chemicals or minerals, including their residues, are used, or have been used within the past 30 days, as an enticement to lure game or wildlife regardless of the type or quantity. Hunters are responsible for ensuring that the hunting area has not been baited before they begin hunting. They should physically inspect the area and question landowners, guides and caretakers. This section does not pertain to hunting near areas where accepted farming or habitat management practices are taking place (example: hunting near food plots on game lands is legal). Any natural or manmade nonliving bait can be used to attract coyotes for hunting or trapping. Bait cannot be visible from the air when trapping. (pg 17)
Baiting for deer without a permit is not permitted on private lands in the Southeast Special Regulations Areas. (pg 41)
A permit has been created that allows private-property owners in the southeastern special regulations areas limited opportunities to use bait while deer hunting. Baiting already is allowed in the special regulations areas on properties enrolled in the agency's Deer Depredation Program, commonly called the "Red Tag" program. Through the use of permitted baiting, there is the potential for higher deer harvests in an area where there is high potential for human-deer conflicts, and where hunting access is extremely limited. Baiting must be limited to shelled corn and protein pellet supplements, not to exceed five gallons per site, and distributed through automatic mechanical feeders set to dispense bait up to three times a day during legal hunting hours. The permit is free, and a landowner or authorized land agent who possesses a valid hunting license can apply. For more information, visit www.pgc.state.pa.us (pg 41)

Moira and Clive, British tourists, had taken in the Arkansas attractions of Eureka Springs, the chuck wagon races in Clinton, the sale barn in Green Forest and now found themselves in Fort Smith for the Arkansas Cattlemen's Association Trail Drive.
They stationed themselves along Rogers Avenue and watched as a group of jolly cowboys came pushing 20 head of rented longhorn cattle along the parade route. Clive was excited. He was a Western movie buff. "By Jove, dear," he beamed, "it's just like 'Rawhide!' "
He was photographing it with his digital Minolta Maxxum 7 when it became obvious some of the beasts were exhibiting unruly behavior.
Amid a chorus of mooing, bawling and cursing, the river of cattle split! Three head, including a big steer, a cow and a paint yearlin' bull, turned at Third Street and struck out across Hanging Judge Courtyard.
All Hector broke loose! Or as Clive said, "Good gracious, Moira! This is better than the bloody Pamplona!"
Two cowboys thundered after the renegades, shakin' out their loops in hot pursuit! A large crowd of onlookers raced after the ruckus, snapping photos and filming the action for "America's Funniest Home Videos."
The three cattle crashed through a construction zone, ignoring the traffic light, the pedestrian crossing and the warning signs.
Cattle, horses, cowboys and tourists followed, jumping cement barriers, danger signs and potholes, flashes popping and videos whirring! Our two cowboys trapped them in the corner of a chain-linked parking lot.
Within 10 minutes, their faithful teamster had backed a trailer in the corner and loaded up the cattle ... all except the bull. He had evaded them. The chase began again, now joined by the Park Ranger on his four-wheeler.
"He's down in the draw along the river," he shouted as he raced by. "I'll run him out for y'all!"
Well, he did, back through the construction, Hangin' Judge Park and the mass of tourists, amid cheering and cameras flashing.
"It's the wild west!" exclaimed Clive, "Back 'ome, they'll never believe this!"
For a long five minutes, our cowboys lost track of the bull until a straggler said, "Come look!"
The whole mass of humanity crowded along the ridge overlooking the Poteau River. Halfway across, swimming like a Navajo rug in a Speedo, they could see the back and the head of the red- and white-spotted longhorn bull making his way to Oklahoma.
Cowboy Earl took off his hat and shook his head. Then he heard one of the tourists with what he thought was a British accent say, "I say, ol' chap, that was a smashing good show! When is the next performance?"

DM2009 Finalists Collaborate to Make Innovation Succeed
Successful innovation in development often begins with one person's passionate belief in an idea that may exist only on a piece of paper. But for an idea to make successive leaps to funding to implementation and, finally, scaling up invariably requires extensive networking and the forging of strategic, sometimes multiple, partnerships. That's the story of Development Marketplace successes like 2006 winner PumpAid (photo) from Sub-Saharan Africa, 2006 winner Self-Sustainable Rainwater Harvesting from India, and 2003 winner Ha-Tien-Habitats-Handbags from Vietnam.
Beginning with a US$120,000 DM grant, PumpAid brought its clean-water project to early-stage development in Malawi and Zimbabwe, and went on to get financing of US$25 million to reach an additional eight million people in those two countries. PumpAid has two partners.
Ha-Tien-Habitats-Handbags, which has partnered with the International Finance Corp. (the commercial arm of the World Bank Group) and Kien Giang Province's Department of Science and Technology, was a 2007 winner of the US$30,000 UN-Habitat/Dubai Municipality International Award for Best Praces to Improve the Living Environment.
Self-Sustainable Rainwater Harvesting went through a series of expansions aided by the nonprofit Aakash Ganga that was financially seeded by Rajasthan Association of North America (RANA). That led to a US$50,000 grant from the Asian Development Bank, and U.N. Development Programs (UNDP) has given Aakash Ganga a grant to expand to several hundred villages.

CIA Accused of Coverup in Military Scientist's 1953 Fatal FallBreaking News
Central Intelligence Agency employees murdered military scientist Frank Olson in 1953 after he raised concerns about testing chemical and biological weapons on human subjects without their consent, according to a lawsuit brought by his two sons.
Eric and Nils Olson, in a complaint filed against the U.S. yesterday in Washington, said the agency has covered up the cause of their father's death for 59 years. Frank Olson, who the CIA admitted was given LSD a few days before his death, didn't jump from a 13th floor window of the Statler Hotel in New York City, but rather was pushed, they claim.
"The circumstances surrounding the death mirrored those detailed in an assassination manual that, upon information and belief, the CIA had drafted that same year," Scott Gilbert, a lawyer for the Olsons, wrote in the complaint.
