SAN ANTONIO, Texas — After champions were crowned in nine field events in the first session, Friday evening action at the 2013 U.S. Paralympics Track and Field National Championships in San Antonio, Texas, was postponed due to lightning. Session 2 events have been rescheduled.
Set to start at 6 p.m. at Trinity University, meet officials postponed action at 5:55 p.m. because of a nearby lightning strike. After a heavy downpour and additional lightning in the area, officials made a decision at 7:45 p.m. to reschedule events.
The 2013 U.S. Paralympics Track and Field National Championships, which is the U.S. qualification opportunity for the 2013 International Paralympic Committee Athletics World Championships in Lyon, France, kicked-off Friday morning with finals in several field competitions.
U.S. Paralympian Ce-Ce Mazyck (Columbia, S.C.), a U.S. Army veteran who competes in the F57 classification, won the women's javelin throw (F54-58) with a 19.89 meter throw, one day after celebrating her birthday. "I'm in love with the javelin," she said.
She bested two Texans. Amy Simmons (Mesquite, Texas), an F54, threw 11.19 and 2012 U.S. Paralympian Kate Callahan (San Antonio, Texas), an F57, threw 15.57.
"It was really awesome seeing the javelin sore in the air," said Mazyck, who was injured in Nov. 2003 while doing a parachute jump with the U.S. Army's 82nd Airborne Division. "I felt good. I felt confident. I delivered."
The javelin is her only event of the competition.
"It is such a relief," she said. "I can breathe now. I was a little stuffed up before today but I can breathe clearly now that I'm done."
Samuel Craven (Walnut Creek, Calif.) won the men's shot put (32-34/52/53). An F34, Craven beat two-time U.S. Paralympian Scot Severn (Caro, Mich.), an F53. Craven threw 9.20 meters. Severn, who was injured while on duty with the U.S. Army Reserves, threw 8.43.
In an all-Texas match-up, 2012 U.S. Paralympian Tobi Fawehinmi (Arlington, Texas) beat U.S. Army veteran Robbie Gaupp of Gatesville, Texas, in the men's triple jump (F45/46).
Fawehinmi's London teammates were also successful on Day 1. Elexis Gillette (Raleigh, N.C.), a three-time Paralympic Games silver medalist, won the title in the men's triple jump (F11/12). U.S. Army veteran Scott Winkler (Grovetown, Ga.) won the men's shot put (54/55). Dennis Ogbe (Prospect, Ky.), who represented Nigeria at the Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games before competing for the U.S. in 2012, won the men's shot put (56/57/58).
Other champions from Day 1 include Eric Johnson (Montevideo, Minn.) in the men's javelin throw (F11-13/40-46), Jorge Fernando Tarazon (Glendale, Ariz.) in the men's shot put (F11/12/20/35) and Rebeca Valenzuela of Mexico in women's javelin throw (F11-13/37/46).
Shaquille Vance (Houston, Miss.) was the fastest man in the lone track event of the day. In the first heat of the men's 200-meter (T42) preliminary race, he ran a 26.91 to easily qualify for the final. William Woods (Ocala, Fla.) was the second fastest, taking the top spot in the second heat with a 28.35.
Track action is set to continue Saturday at 8:30 a.m. with field events starting at 9 a.m. A revised competition schedule for the 2013 U.S. Paralympics Track and Field National Championships is available on USParalympics.org.

It was a bittersweet ending for Harrisburg's Mike Tison.
The Bulldogs boys' golf coach had arguably one of the best teams in southern Illinois all season. Harrisburg had a disappointing finish at the Southern Illinois River-to-River Conference Golf Tournament last week, finishing fourth.
The Bulldogs didn't fare much better at Regionals Tuesday at Kokopelli Golf Course.
Harrisburg finished fourth overall with a 333, 28 strokes off the lead that Massac County set by shooting a 305 for the team title.
Harrisburg missed out on sectional qualifying by four strokes as Marion finished second with a 325 and Mt. Carmel grabbed the last sectional spot with a 329.
"If we would have played as a team like we finished the year, our team would have advanced easily," Tison said. "That is the difficulty of a one-and done-tournament. All-in-all, this team earned a lot of respect from the coaches and other players with their efforts this year."
Following Harrisburg's 333 was Benton, carding a 339. Herrin was sixth after shooting a 341 and Murphysboro (342), West Frankfort (366) and Carbondale (421) rounded out the final three teams.
The silver lining in the day for the Bulldogs was the play of a pair of seniors.
Looking to go out in style, Harrisburg's Alexander Tison and Dillon Street shined Tuesday, both advancing to Saturday's Sectional at Salem.
Tison finished fourth as an individual, shooting a 77 and Street qualified as well after firing an 81 and finishing in a tie for 13th.
Ben Fowler finished with an 86, while Garrett Jenkins carded an 89. Ryan Williams came in with a 91 and Patrick Bittle put up a 94.
"I was very happy to see alexander and Dillon advance," Tison said. "Both finished the season strong and played well today."

Glidden Gets You Going
June 8, 2010
Declining sales and years of brand and media neglect meant Glidden Paint was about to lose a prime retail distributor. An overhauled in-store experience, a free paint giveaway, and unique placement of TV, innovative magazine inserts, outdoor kiosks and banners all contributed to Glidden's sales jumping up 34 points versus prior year.

Sleepy Eye Council grants variance with waiver
SLEEPY EYE – The Sleepy Eye City Council approved a variance request with waiver contingency Monday by Judd and Jen Walter to build a basement under their home at 901 2nd Ave. N.W.
Walter said his home only has crawl space underneath it, and he wants the added safety of a basement in case of a tornado. The variance allows the lowest floor elevation to be built 2 feet below the high water mark. Existing regulations allow construction not less than 3 feet above the high water mark.
"Building it higher would require lots of steps," said Walter. He said his home is about 200 feet from Sleepy Eye slough, just east of Sleepy Eye Lake.
The waiver contingency keeps the Walters from holding the City of Sleepy Eye responsible for high water household damage.
Swim team
A spirited note from parents of Sleepy Eye swim team members asked for city council support after learning from Sleepy Eye Park and Recreation representatives that the swim team would not be allowed to exist this summer.
City Manager Mark Kober said a pending lawsuit against the city following an accident on the swim team float at last year's Corn Days parade is putting more emphasis on liability issues.
"It's unfortunate, but that's the world we live in," Kober said.
Several parents of swim team members said the parade mishap had nothing to do with the swim team itself and that it should be allowed to continue. The team has existed for a number of years, and there is strong interest for it to continue, the parents wrote. In addition, a very adequate facility is available for meets and practices. There are volunteer coaches, and liability insurance is offered by the Girl Scouts of America.
Councilor Nate Stevermer suggested the council draft a liability waiver if needed for the team.
Kober suggested the Girl Scouts Insurance policy be reviewed by the city insurer. He recommended a meeting be held within the next week involving the city attorney, swim team and park and recreation department.
In other action, the city council approved:
A resolution supporting a Street District legislative bill co-authored by Rep. Paul Torkelson (R-Hanska). Kober said a number of large and small cities support the bill that is working its way through the Legislature in St. Paul.
Appointing Shaun Heiderscheidt and Jesse Fischer to the Sleepy Eye Fire Department, pending passage of physicals.
City Engineer Dave Palm's report on the Snow Farm project including a final $16,650 wetlands banking purchase.
Kober's report included a final Snow Farm lot assessment roll summary of Phase 1 projects. Potential lot prices vary from $33,558.87 to $83,433.73 (including $47,000 in development costs). Kober said realtors will handle lot sales at 5 percent fees.

My butt is loose?Posted Tuesday, April 15, 2008, at 4:18 PM
Sometimes we adults become so busy with work and interaction with other adults that we forget that we need to get down on our children's level when we are talking with them. We assume that they should understand words that would be used in an adult conversation, not realizing that they have no clue what we are talking about. I think quite often, if we are not careful, we leave our children confused because we neglect to explain things on a level that they can understand.
I heard of a perfect example of this a couple of weeks ago. A friend of mine was in a flurry of morning activity one day when she realized the button on her three-year-old's pants needed mending. Without thinking, she dropped her son's clean shirt into his hands and told him to put it on. Then as she was walking away form him, she told him that his button was loose, and when she sewed it back on, she would bring his pants to him.
At this hurried comment, the three-year-old's eyes popped wide open, he let out a gasp and with his chubby little hand he frantically grabbed hold of his butt. As he looked up at his mother, panic was etched across his face.
His mother, sensing what the child was thinking, tried to assure the poor child that it was not his butt that was loose, but rather the button on his pants that was hanging off. She held the pants up in front of his face and showed him the lose button.
After staring at the loose button for a couple of seconds, relief creeped across the child's face. His mother, although extremely tickled about the misunderstanding, said she realized how important it is to communicate to her son in a way that he can understand.

Dunkirk police answered nearly 40,000 calls in 2012
By GIB SNYDER
OBSERVER City Editor
Just over three incidents per resident. That is what the 2012 total of 39,966 calls for the Dunkirk Police Department answered for police activity, arrests and parking violations would average if the city's 2010 census number of 12,563 is correct.
Police Chief David Ortolano recently released the 2012 report.
The numbers show adult arrests included 819 males and 391 females, a total of 1,210 adults on 2,021 charges. Included in the 2,201 charges were felony (156); misdemeanor (532); violation (435); and infractions (887).
There were 191 juveniles arrested on a total of 191 charges, including 118 males and 73 females. Charges included felony (22); misdemeanor (34); and violation (135).
Officers filed 36,764 incident reports. Included in this number were 2,903 responses to 911 calls; 909 prisoners incarcerated ; 603 domestic violence; 1,081 moving violations; 99 failure to pay parking. Total arrest charges numbered 3,381.
There were 3,202 parking violations, 202 traffic accidents with 158 involving property damage and 44 involving personal injury.
Most of the numbers are larger than those from 2011. One dropoff was in 911 calls, as 2011 showed 3,255 versus the 2,903 in 2012. One category that did go up was domestic violence calls, from 559 in 2011 to 2012's 603; an increase of almost 8 percent.
Ortolano said he didn't know the reason for the increase – economic or the breakdown of the family unit.
"The hard part about that is those are some of the most dangerous calls we go on. The thing with those is we don't know what we're walking into," he explained. "It could be something volatile. It could be something simple. It could be something simple that turns into something volatile. And there's times when you walk in and they're swinging knives and it turns into something cordial. Those are the unforeseen ones that present a lot of safety issues for our guys."
Ortolano said domestic violence reports take time as well.
"With the mandatory arrests and orders of protection and things like that it's a lot of followup work," he added. "It's a lot of investigative work, it's a lot of paperwork that goes along with those calls, too. The increase in paperwork for the state mandates on domestic violence, that's a ton of followup work and investigation that has to go along with those."
If there are children involved there is more to it for officers.
"We have to make sure they're safe, get a relative to take care of them, call Child Protection Services," Ortolano explained. "If the children are involved in it that presents a whole different set of circumstances, with charges, too."
Vehicle entries and house burglaries are on the rise in the city with the chief noting that residents' help is needed.
"When we asked for help on the burglaries we had in the First Ward area, once we put it out there that we were experiencing that, we were getting people calling in and that's what we need," Ortolano stated. "I think it does help when we go out and ask the community for help. They have responded and helped us."
The chief added that he would rather have officers respond and find out something was innocent. He cited a recent example when a report of someone running from a house near the high school was reported. Police found the individual who turned out to be a student hustling home and back to get some forgotten school work.
"I'm glad they called. What if it was somebody who had just broken into a house? I'd rather send a car out to find it is a homeowner, or somebody, a relative or a friend, who do belong there rather than the next day have maybe a house broken into or something," Ortolano said. "Our guys go door-to-door when we have these entries and they interview all the neighbors. … And they say, 'oh yeah I saw something yesterday.' Or they'll call in and say, 'I did see something two days ago.'"
The chief said responding is part of the job police do.
"That's what we're here for. Call us. I want to send a car. I want to have our guys check it out," he explained. "That's what we're here to do for the community. I'd rather send a car out to check it out and have it be something good than rather not send a car at all."
The numbers include incident reports the department generates in its part-time coverage in the town of Dunkirk, but the enforcement arrests are limited to incidents in the city, according to Ortolano.
The number for the police desk is 366-2266. The confidential tip line number is 363-0313.

Americans went out on election day and voted Trump into office fairly. I do not care who Trump associates with, that is politics and how you get elected. For Rep.

Canada-Europe Free Trade Agreement Largest Deal Yet
What You Don't Know About A Deal You Haven't Heard Of - by Maude Barlow
"In coming days, Canada and European officials will intensify negotiations on a new trade agreement most Canadians have never heard of. The Canada-European Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement is by far the largest free trade deal this country has ever undertaken.."
globalist takeover advances
Canada-EU Free Trade Agreement: Jumping from one sinking ship to another?
A truly mutual economic partnership with Europe would be great -- one where they buy as much from us as they sell to us, and good stuff, too, not just resources. But a free-trade agreement won't do that. Meantime, we'll be dragged down by Europe's coming funk, which will easily last a decade. Better to take a pass on this one, and negotiate a better deal with the Europeans somewhere down the road, once they're back on their feet.
this article was a tad depressing to say the least. As if NAFTA wasn't enough now we're looking to duplicate that mess with Europe? I'm sure this will be great for investors but it will be horrible for the rest of us. This means weaker enforcement of the remaining bits of law we barely pay attention to now, more inequality in terms of pay, a huge loss of ability to make our own decisions in the future.
And it's a done deal, no input from the public because no one cares or is paying attention and the media is making sure it stays that way. I'm sure Barlowe's article will be followed up by some jackwad like ezra levant or conrad black extolling the virtues of free trade and duping the public into thinking like rich investors.
makes the g20 look like a practice run for the future of the country.
Mulcair Open to Free Trade With Europe
"New Democratic leader Thomas Mulcair says he's 'very open' to the Harper government's proposed Canada - European Union trade deal..."
ndp=no difference party
My universe is European says the man who would be PM. Fuck him and his overt racism.
Mulcair said the NDP will view the accord, if it is reached, through a far different lens than the Canada-China investment protection agreement that his party vehemently opposed.
He said that Europe, unlike China, has laws on human rights, the environment and labour practices that are at least as advanced as Canada's.
"You're looking at 500 million people (in the EU) who evolve in a similar universe as ourselves," he told The Vancouver Sun. "So we're very open to it, but we're going to look at it critically.
Here is a good example of how Canadian mining companies conduct themselves. One nice universe for Europe and other white nations and one nasty reality for the rest of the world. When your engaged in raping the planet it seems that it is an easy step to actual rape of the indigenous women who would stand in your way.
This is Canada's brave new world.
Following allegations of a series of gang rapes at its Porgera mine, Barrick devised a strategy the company says will help fulfill its promise to the surrounding communities: "We will uphold your rights and we will protect your dignity."
But a group of NGOs from Canada, the U.S. and the U.K. says that the resulting document, far from protecting rape victims, requires them to waive their rights.
The framework document stipulates that in exchange for remedies such as access to counselling and micro-credit, "the claimant agrees that she will not pursue or participate in any legal action against [Porjera Joint Venture], PRFA [Porgera Remediation Framework Association Inc.] or Barrick in or outside of [Papua New Guinea]. PRFA and Barrick will be able to rely on the agreement as a bar to any legal proceedings which may be brought by the claimant in breach of the agreement."
MiningWatch Canada's Catherine Coumans said the NGOs "do not believe women should have to sign away rights to possible future legal action in order to access the types of remedy Barrick is offering these victims of rape and gang rape."
NGO claims 'erroneous and misleading': Barrick
While some of the alleged rapists were company employees, others were members of the police assigned to provide additional mine security. But the NGOs say the material support Barrick provided to these police officers blurred the line between employees and non-employees, and they want the company to assist women raped by either category of security forces.
"We are also concerned that Barrick is not offering remedy to those women who have been raped and gang raped by members of police Mobile Squads who are being housed, fed and supported by PJV on PJV property," according to Rights & Accountability in Development's Tricia Feeney.
Barrick has issued a statement responding to these "erroneous and misleading" claims and arguing its remediation package "fully accords" with the voluntary UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.
Quebec could throw a monkey wrench into any free-trade deal between Canada and the European Union if it's not satisfied with the treaty's contents, Premier Pauline Marois warned Monday.
The Parti Quebecois leader told a news conference the province could enact laws or regulations to make it difficult to implement a Canada-EU treaty if it believes there has been an encroachment on provincial jurisdiction.
"At one point, when it comes to certain principles with which we are unable to live or agreements that have an impact on our market that is unacceptable, well, I don't think we should give up," Marois said.
Such deals are just another reason why Quebec needs to be sovereign, the premier added.
Right now, the Canadian Constitution says only the federal government can sign trade deals with other countries.
Quebec not ready to sign on to Canada-EU trade deal
The new Quebec government says its support for a Canada-Europe free trade agreement is not yet certain and is warning that it should not be treated as a fait accompli.
The Parti Québécois government said Wednesday that there are grey areas in the negotiation that need to be clarified before the province signs on.
The new minister responsible for the file, Jean-François Lisée, said in an interview that he's "moderately optimistic" that the province will eventually support the deal — but he has some concern about going too far in liberalizing certain industries.
The PQ government says it's particularly concerned about energy and cultural policy, along with some other economic sectors.
It is also critical of the level of transparency in the file and says too little information has filtered out from the negotiations. The PQ made that same criticism in opposition while confronting the previous government of Jean Charest, who was among the staunchest and earliest proponents of a Canada-EU deal.
This is a year old: Leak offers hints on Canada-Europe trade negotiations
But there is no exemption for water services, a sore point with critics of the negotiations with the world's richest market.
The documents released Wednesday by RQIC, a network of Quebec civil society groups and unions, are the first public glimpse of the list of exemptions Ottawa and the provinces have proposed for protection under any new deal.
They represent the starting position submitted to the EU in October, however, and some may be dropped in future sessions. It is not known what is on the EU exclusion list.
A spokesman for RQIC said the group is still analysing more than 200 pages of exempted items, but the lack of a set-aside for municipal water systems sticks out like a sore thumb.
"This opens open up any public procurement on water, any public contract will need to be opened up to multinationals," said Pierre-Yves Serinet of RQIC.
"Water is under municipal (control) but we know infrastructure is very old and needs big investments in the near future, so the control of drinking water and also waste water is a big concern."
The Council of Canadians and the Canadian Union of Public Employees, in a release to be issued Thursday, argue the deal would mark the first time Canada has allowed drinking water to become part of a trade agreement. And it could open up municipalities to lawsuits from European water operators.
"If CETA were signed today ... municipalities who choose a public-private partnership for a water or wastewater facility become vulnerable to corporate lawsuits demanding compensation for lost profits under the investor-state dispute mechanism," the release states.
..but this contradicts what I posted earlier:
In addition, Quebec and Ottawa have been working closely on the Canada-Europe free trade deal, which is expected to be signed in the coming months, and have agreed to extend that co-operation to the impending free-trade talks with Asian countries.
How can we conceivably negotiate a deal with Europe when the EU is currently unravelling?
Well at least there is something to unravel in Europe. OTOH, the Harper toadies to U.S. power signed a trade deal with Colombia, a country notorious for trampling basic human rights.
By comparison European countries are rich in spite of bad economies as a result of following neoliberal ideology.
There are, of course, several areas of concern for the NDP.
Regrettably, the NDP has a lack of confidence in the Harper government to approach the Canada-EU agreement with transparency and the best interests of Canadians in mind.
Negotiations so far have been secretive. No doubt the Harper government intends once again to have this be a closed deal and only conduct empty consultations with Parliament after the fact.
The NDP also has no confidence in the Harper government to protect Canada's best interests, as we have seen through the Softwood Lumber Agreement sell-out. Harper was more than ready to concede to American interests just for the sake of making a deal—any deal....
Trade is good - corrupt stooges, bad. Government secrecy and democracy are completely different and incompatible themes as we've noted in countless threads on 9/11, Liberal and reformaTory government stoogery and so on.
When you import more than you export YOU are losing the free trade deal.
NOW go compare our imports versus our exports!!!
That is a salient point, and I agree for the most part. But, and there is always a but, however, etcetera.
It is common knowledge that Canada is a country with unparalleled in the world natural resource wealth and a relatively tiny population. And it is possible to develop natural resource wealth in sustainable ways, but that does not describe Canada's approach to resource extraction of the last 30 years or so.
The new liberal capitalism of the last three decades has meant resource extraction and raping of the planet at a frenzied pace and on a scale never witnessed at any time before in world history. It was as if unfettered greed was unleashed in the world.
On the other hand we have a situation since WW II whereby very many countries depend on imports of raw materials in order for their manufacturing and export-dependent economies to continue. Germany is an example of a country whose 900+ billion dollar export-driven economy is heavily reliant on imports of raw materials. Before the last world war it was a case where certain European countries coveted the resources of other countries, and especially Russia's vast resources. Some would say the situation has not changed all that much today because all wars are resource grabs. And I agree with that assessment.
What we need today is sustainable trade with the world in order to keep the peace between nations. Marx said to let industrial capitalism proliferate around the world, because in the end the marvel of capitalist industry will be owned by the workers. Trade agreements would be included in that future scenario. We should want for the proliferation of development around the world, and not neoliberal de-industrialization with financial masters of the universe "creating wealth" through debt with the added evil of compound interest accruing in total by more than countries are able to pay. Neoliberalism leads to debt-ridden economies by design, and the maruading international capital then proceeds to conquer nations, not by military means so much anymore, but by odious debt and fraudulent fiancial maneuvering. The former Yugoslavia was destroyed first by the bad economic theory resulting in bad economies exacerbating old ethnic conflicts which were, for most of the post-war era, ameliorated by socialist policies and what was probably the largest proportion of middle class workers in the world by the 1970's.
It's all good. When the world revolutions are eventually concluded, it will belong to the true majority of human beings lock, stock and barrel excluding fictitious debt claims by the globalized financial oligarchies now unable to wage land invasions of countries due to high monetary and human costs, and because of a general reluctance of the workers to be pawns in their glorious world war scenarios.
Premiers Urged to Hold Public Hearings on Canada-EU Trade Deal

As a Pepperdine law student, Robert Popovich was first in his class and the business editor of the Pepperdine Law Review. Upon graduation, he worked as an associate with the law firm Irell & Manella, practicing the areas of estate planning, taxation and business transactions. Prior to his tenure as a Pepperdine law student, he practiced, as a CPA, with Deloitte & Touche (then Deloitte Haskins and Sells), was a director of taxes for a large multi-national corporation, and was CEO and Chairman of Lindmar Data Corporation.
Professor Popovich loves his work as a professor at Pepperdine, in particular his passion for teaching. He comments, "My students know from the first day of class that they are my number one priority. Facilitating their learning of the law is, of course, a primary goal. Equally important is that every student knows that their well being is paramount to me." Professor Popovich was twice named a Luckman Distinguished Teaching Fellow, 1993-1998 and 1998-2003, three times named a Teacher of the Year, 2004-2005, 2008-2009, and 2012-13, and was a 2006 recipient of the Howard A. White Award for Teaching Excellence.

About the Author: Tom Countryman is the Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Bureau of Political-Military Affairs.
It's been just over a year since the United States joined with partners across the international community to establish the Contact Group on Piracy off the Coast of Somalia, which has honored Secretary Clinton's call for a 21st century solution to a 17th century crime of pirate attacks in the waters off the Horn of Africa. In the year since this voluntary effort was founded following the United Nations call for such an effort, it has grown from 24 countries to more than 50 countries. In addition, several international organizations participate, including the African Union, the European Union, the League of Arab States, the International Maritime Organization, INTERPOL, and NATO.
Those of us participating in the Contact Group also share a conviction that joint action, sharing of effective tactics and strategies, and coordination of military, business, and legal measures together offer the best means of dealing with piracy. In that regard, there are three general areas in which we have made steady progress to meet this challenge:
Security: Everyday, ships from more than 20 nations jointly patrol the Gulf of Aden, creating an internationally recognized transit corridor to provide safe passage for the 30,000 cargo ships that pass through this area every year. This effort represents cooperation not only among American and European naval forces participating under NATO and the European Union, but also remarkable individual contributions by a number of other countries, such as Russia, China, and India. This is a result of a coordination mechanism based in Bahrain, which also obviates the need for a supreme commander to lead the effort. As a result, the success rate for pirate attacks in this transit corridor has fallen to nearly zero. It's a good model not only for the Gulf of Aden and the Somali Basin, but for future cooperative security endeavors.
Partnering with Industry: Since naval vessels can't be everywhere all of the time, employment of relatively simple means of deterring pirates, such as briefing crews and increasing watch in high-risk waters, upgrading lighting, preparing to take evasive action or positioning fire hoses to repel would-be boarders, has proven to be the most important factor in the declining rate of successful pirate attacks in the region. Over the last year, the Contact Group has worked closely with the International Maritime Organization to establish and codify best management practices that ships should employ when they're in this dangerous territory. We hope to see other states require the same kind of best management practices that we've adopted for U.S.-flagged commercial ships operating in the region. It's the lowest cost and most effective way to deter pirate attacks.
Legal prosecutions: Since piracy has long been defined as a universal crime, every state has the jurisdiction to prosecute pirates. Whether it's an attack on their flag, their property or their citizens, we encourage the states affected by piracy to prosecute. We recognize, in particular, that Kenya has stepped forward and offered itself as a site for the prosecution of suspected pirates. This has been a step of great responsibility, and we respect and thank the Kenyans for taking that step.
What also binds Contact Group participants together is a realization that the root causes of piracy off the coast of Somalia rest in the state of disorder that has characterized Somalia now for 20 years. While a parallel UN-led diplomatic effort to stabilize Somalia continues on land, the Contact Group seeks to manage piracy's consequences for disruption to aid and trade, as well as the human cost it ultimately imposes upon the people of Somalia.
We're mindful of some of the motivations that cause young Somali men to go to sea in this desperate effort. The economic situation in Somalia has led to a situation in which some may undertake these very high-risk criminal activities. However, when past pirate attacks have been successful, the money has not come back primarily to benefit the economy of Somalia. As in other forms of criminal activity, the people deriving the primary benefit are the enablers and organizers on land convincing young men to endanger their lives. To these organized crime leaders, the young Somali man is just as disposable as the leaky old boats and second-hand small arms they use to threaten shipping traffic.
The United States supports the Djibouti Peace Process as the Somali-led vehicle for bring stability back to Somalia. We encourage Somalia's Transitional Federal Government to reach out to those actors who want peace in Somalia and to move forward on transitional tasks. As surely as the Somali fisherman, farmer and teacher are victims of Somalia's continuing land-based instability, peace and stability can only be realized by addressing Somalia's governance, security, humanitarian and development needs.

If the United States brought back just one of the Iowa Class Battleships and placed in that area, I seriously doubt the Pirates would even think of going after any vessels. Walk softly and carry a big stick. The Battleship with sixteen inch guns would send a message to the Somalia Pirates, LOUD and CLEAR.
Eric in New Mexico writes:
@ Deputy Assistant Secretary Countryman,
"We encourage Somalia's Transitional Federal Government to reach out to those actors who want peace in Somalia and to move forward on transitional tasks."
Well Tom, I appreciate the diplomatic efforts by one and all, especially DOD's efforts in support of the Somali Trans. gov. to "reach out and touch" al-shabab/al quaida.
Eventually piracy will stop when folks get real busy and do a tap dance on the heads of ethical infants and we deliver WFP humanitarian aid in force, clear, hold, and build confidence.
I know this isn't the most diplomatic way to put this, but Donald has a point about using overwhelming force to solve the problem, it's just that the problem originates on land.
No one seems to be willing to deal with this in a comprehensive manner, that's why the problem lingers much to the distess of the Somali people.
We can provide recon and logistical support, weapons, and munitions in support of the transitional government, but in all honest assesment we're going to have to get a coalition of the willing involved on the ground, boots and all..
Otherwise there will be no peace for years to come, and we'll be dealing with pirates for the next decade.
So let's not muck about, and get the job done right. Starting with the UN's "rules of engagement".
This notion that "there is no military solution" is pure BS. You create the space for diplomacy to happen.
There was a military solution to Hitler, there's a military solution to the taliban as well. Which is eventually going to lead to reconciliation of those who are willing to lay down their weapons and walk the road to peace, because our armed forces have provided adequate "incentive" for them to make a correct choice. The same is true for Somalia in principal.
If the international community has the capability to enforce the peace, then there is no excuse for lack of political will on the part of the international community to protect populations from terrorists.
Then all the refugees will have the chance to go home and rebuild a life.
I think it holds true that the longer folks wait to do this, the harder it gets and the longer it will take to heal Somalia, turning it into an ally in the war on terror rather than a source of it.
Bottom line is a whole generation of Somalis have been victims of instability that could have been prevented. Similar to the abandonment of Afghanistan that led to 9/11.
Well, I've come to the general conclusion that the war on terror has been in large part the going about of correcting mistakes made by the international community.
Same goes for the removal of Saddam by resolving the unintended consequence of leaving him in power when he should have been removed in 91. 20/20 hindsight and a few lessons from history later...
There's solution to be found in the answer to this question; "Why does the international community keep on having these problems?"
I think it can be found in the definition of "success" and how effective and willing folks are to attain it.
If the UN was more into solving problems, they'd call it a "peace making force" with a pro-active offensive capability funded and supported with manpower by the member states.
To separate civilian populations from the terrorists that hide behind them for cover.
Then run roughshod over those holding a gun and their sponsors.
Too bad it's not possible to clone Gen. McCrystal, but just maybe it's possible to clone his mindset, and graft it onto international institutions.
We need to simply stop having these conversations, Tom. Piracy should never have reared it's ugly head from the dustbin of history in the first place.
Thanks for your post and the update, hope you'll pass my thoughts on up the chain of command.
Be safe,
Richard G. in New York writes:
Maritime piracy is an International problem that is rapidly expanding and is being fueled by insurers who are paying ransoms, but are still profiting from the sale of new K&R policies. Increased military efficiency in the Gulf of Aden has forced Somali pirates to operate further offshore where military intervention is far less effective. Although warships have had some success apprehending some mother vessels when departing the Somali mainland, pirate tactics are continually changing and their inevitable success offshore will continue. The answer is therefore not a military one. In addition, the use of armed guards raises many questions, runs the risk of antagonizing the situation and is simply too expensive on a continuous basis. The sollution is that Merchant vessels will have to protect themselves for longer durations and further offshore. The pirates always use small, high speed watercraft to gain access to the vessel under attack. If boarding can be prevented then there will be no hijack. We have developed a passive non-lethal, cost effective system that will immobilise multiple attacking watercraft and prevent future hijackings. Our system is simple and is intended to be used as a deep sea stand alone sollution. The system can be operated by the vessel's own crew, is very efficient and will provide 24/7 effective all round protection.

Topic: RH9 VPS env for Rails
Hi guys, I am thinking on getting a 256MB RAM VPS to run Rails apps exclusively, and I wanted to ask here for advice on how to set the whole thing up.
Which server do you recommend (Apache? Mongrel? lighttpd?)
SQLite or MySQL?
There will be no control panel (duh!) and I will want - most probably - to host multiple domains on this server in the near-future.
Cheers, Gerhard.

Artist: Olga de AmaralConstruction: WoolLocation: W. Dale Clark Library, 4th floorDonated by: Union PacificInstalled: 1977
Olga de Amaral, an internationally renowned Colombian textile artist, created the 3-dimensional textile
sculpture located on the 4th floor of the W. Dale Clark Library. Union Pacific donated the sculpture
in 1977 upon completion of the new Main Library.
Amaral's work originated as small, playful tapestries which gradually emerged into the monolithic
style seen in her later pieces. These large abstract works create their own presence. Her signature use of somber colors and textured wool in a layered pattern characterize
Olga de Amaral's mature technique.
(L. Sullivan, August 2005)

Detained Student Activist Released!
Recent Victories
On 23 February, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals issued a stay of execution in the case of Rodney Reed, who was due to be put to death on 5 March for a murder in 1996 which he has consistently said he did not commit.
The Maryland House of Delegates followed the lead of the state Senate and passed the death penalty repeal bill making Maryland the 18th state to abandon capital punishment, and the 6th state in 6 years to join the abolition club.
Connecticut Governor Dannel P. Malloy signed into law the repeal of Connecticut's death penalty, making his state the 17th, and the 5th in the last 5 years, to do away with capital punishment.
Seventy-year-old Alabama death row prisoner Thomas Arthur has received a stay of execution from a federal court. He had been scheduled to be executed on the evening of 29 March for a murder committed in 1982.

John, here is my guess...60% or less hydrationsalt? you could guess better having eaten it, I would start at 1.5-2%2-3% oil1-2% sugarany idea on bake temp?-Marc
Thank you Marc - I am thinking it is lower than 500, John
John,From your description, I think it is a good assumption that this is a same day dough. Might have a bit more sugar in there though.A little hard to tell from the pics, but...do you think this may be a blend of cheeses...looks like there may be some "fresh" in there, no?Chau may be right...but what the heck, try a same day.
John, is it me or do the large bubbles possibly indicate a a cold ish dough ball at opening of the skin, as if maybe cold femented? -Marc
they store dough balls in the refrig prep table and open them cold.
I have nothing to contribute as far as a recipe goes, but this post takes me down memory lane.
John,Your pie looks pretty darn good. Do you think maybe increasing the sugar to 1.5% or 2% would help give you the color in the crust your aiming for? Jim
And before any of the purist start telling me that Classic NY pizza doesn't contain milk products....hey we gotta do what we gotta do to compensate for our home ovens.
I think if I had the HP it would have been better.
Do we, Chau? He's already got his 7 minute bake. Thermodynamically, he's matched the pizzeria oven. The sort of extreme golden brown in Pino's crust could point towards milk/a non traditional approach, so it might be worth trying, but I don't think the home oven needs to be compensated for.


text: Rare Dog Breeds This eclectic group of ancient dog breeds is anything but ordinary. To describe the dog breeds in this group as "rare" is entirely relative. Many of them are hugely popular in their native countries. The powerful Fila Brasileiro is used throughout Brazil as a police dog and a hunter of jaguar and other big game. The Canadian Eskimo Dog has a long history working with the Inuit peoples. The Sloughi and the Azawakh are ancient North African sighthounds. For our purposes, these dog breeds are considered "rare" because they have not yet... Read More »

Skip to comments.FReeper Canteen - Tunes For Our Troops - 8 June 2013
Posted on 06/07/2013 6:00:27 PM PDT by AZamericonnie
My 7-year-old African-American friend Tobias asked me a thought-provoking question the other day: Since Adam and Eve were white, where did black people come from? When I told him we dont know what color they were and asked him why he thought they were white, he said thats what he always saw in Bible-story books at church and in the library. My heart sank. I wondered if that might make him think he was inferior or possibly not even created by the Lord.
All people have their roots in the Creator God, and therefore all are equal. Thats what the apostle Paul told the Athenians: [God] has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth (Acts 17:26). We are all from one blood. Darrell Bock, in his commentary on the book of Acts, says, This affirmation would be hard for the Athenians, who prided themselves in being a superior people, calling others barbarians. However, because we all descended from our first parents, Adam and Eve, no race nor ethnicity is superior or inferior to another.
We stand in awe of our Creator, who made us and gives to all life, breath, and all things (v.25). Equal in Gods sight, we together praise and honor Him.
Read: Acts 17:22-31

Gaba Gaba Hey!
Rockumenary this evening, 1985 to be exact.
Thanks for the great music for the troops.
I heard that song for the first time on KNBR in San Francisco, when I was driving from Las Vegas to Barstow on I-15 in December 1971. I was on my way from Fort Gordon to Fort Lewis where I would take up my assignment with the 58th Signal Battalion.
It is my pleasure to post music for the TROOPS, wherever they may be, their families and supporters everywhere. ;-)
Where were you on Saturday, June 8, 1985?
The payroll project on which I had been working for the prior two years had just been terminated for going on too long and producing too little, and people were being shown the door. I called in an IOU and found a slot working for one of my users at the bank, and she provided me a place to hide until my enemies were all retired or fired.
Lets cue the Rockumentary theme!

This was one of the great feel-good tunes of the era. It came in at #10 this week.

I enjoy the tunes very much. Seeing Laurence Welk brings back the memory of our first black and white TV in 1960. My mother loved that show and bought anything he advertised. I'll never forget the Geritol she made me and my three little sisters take. Awful stuff.
It's Tunes For Our Troops Time!
Good evening, Publius, and thanks for Rachmaninov's "The Star Spangled Banner". ((HUGS))
Good evening, Mayor, and thanks for today's sustenance for body and soul.
Good evening, timeflies...glad you enjoy the tunes for our troops.
Geritol? I haven't heard about that in years.
Enjoy the evening.
I'm off for home....via Lowes for flowers for my Mom.
So very good to see you!
A good week for you? Sonboy & the wahines doing well?
What a day.
Lynn-DAH had her scheduled annual visit to the vet this morning. She was immediately suspicious of the big man who was holding her still for her temperature you-know-where, and she pawed at him, ripping out the crotch of his scrubs! (Luckily she didn't hurt him!) Then she had blood drawn, several needles, exams of her eyes, ears and teeth, and the Bordatella vaccine squirted up her nose. She is very proud of her new PURPLE rabies tag, and afterwards, we took a nice walk to the Mailbox shed to drop off some mail. Suddenly we were hit with a tropical storm (Andrea) with all the fury of a Monsoon, and 60mph winds. After barely making it back to our apartment, I was despairing of being able to work today. A slight clearing allowed me to get to the car, but all day long I kept getting caught in it between students.
We had over a foot of rain in Broward.
I got the rain yesterday, about five inches, but the winds didn't arrive until today.
Hello Publius!
Thanks for my favorite song of my childhood!
Good evening, Drumbo...((HUGS))...thanks for spinning the tunes for the troops.
Is your weather cooperating for the garden?
I love the little rain we've gotten and the weathers has been good to me, but time ... where does it go? I had a close friend in the Hospice this week and I spent some time there before he passed yesterday morning. I've been tieing up as many loose ends as possible before I rejoin the workforce Monday. I still haven't had time to write you the FReepmail I owe and Tomorrow is all designated garden scramble to get the rest of my corn and beans in if the rain passes us by. Andrea seems to be hugging the coast and should be well on the way to New England by tomorrow, but I'm still hoping it makes some rain tonight. It was overcast all day, but not a drop.

When I went to put the tray of plants outside I noticed that the basil looked and felt kind of wilted. At first I though I under watered them but the coconut husk is still slightly moist. Then I thought they were over watered but I haven't water them since wednesday. So... I'm kind of stumped. Anyone know what's going on. They are either under the grow lights if its bad outside for 16hours or they are outside like today where its nice and sunny for hardening off.
My purple basil wilts when they need water. Don

text: This kid was one of my sleeper binkies last year, and I was disappointed when the Steelers grabbed him in the 5th round of the 2012 draft. But after last night, Alfonzo Dennard's legal problems pale in comparison: Steelers' Alameda Ta'amu charged with felony DUI - NFL.com Three felony counts including 2 assault charges while intoxicated? That's serious stuff. Didn't see that one coming. I can't remember any major red flags, off the top of my head. But I'd guess his career just took a major derailment.

Topic: How to get into testing?
I've been programming in rails for around a year and a half now, but I have never touched the testing suite. I'm fairly used to testing things manually. I like the concept of being able to check that old features still work when one expands and application. I am wondering for someone who wants to get into testing, if I should just use the built in test suite (Rails 3), or get something such as cucumber and rspec. Suggestions on where to start such as a guide or tutorial would be helpful as well.

Locals Appreciation Day at the Meadows
Sunriver Resort's second annual Locals Appreciation Day will be held this Friday, April 16th. We invited our local Central Oregon golfers to play the Meadows course the day before the official opening… for FREE! (The 120 player limit filled up in less than two hours). It's our way of saying, "Thank you, Central Oregon, for your support".
The day starts with a Nike Golf Demo Day on the practice facility at 10:30 then a little warm up on the practice tee and off we go with a shotgun start on the Meadows course at 12pm. We finish off the day with a post round spread that consists of pulled pork sandwiches, hot dogs and much more. It should be a tremendous day at Sunriver Resort. Thanks, Central Oregon.

Lomachenko stuns featherweight world champ Selimov
BEIJING (AP) Vasyl Lomachenko of Ukraine rallied to beat featherweight world champion Albert Selimov of Russia 14-7 Monday, putting several brash flourishes on the best fight of the Olympic tournament so far.
An unlikely draw put the world's top two featherweights together in the first round, with the 20-year-old Lomachenko forced to take on Selimov, who beat him in the world championship finals last November in Chicago.
Both fighters showed talent several notches above their peers at Workers' Gymnasium, including victorious American Raynell Williams. But Lomachenko boxed 2½ nearly perfect rounds to finish the bout, showing flair and smarts while handing Russia its first loss of the Olympics.
A large Russian delegation of teammates and officials gave vocal support to Selimov, who took a 5-2 lead early in the second round with quicker hands. Lomachenko then opened up his attack with a flourish, incredibly scoring 11 consecutive points by the close of the third round.
Lomachenko bobbed around the ring with superior speed that anticipated Selimov's every move. Midway through the third round, Lomachenko ran to a neutral corner and saucily beckoned Selimov forward with a wave, then popped Selimov with a punch to his already bloodied nose.
Selimov lost his composure and didn't score again until midway through the final round, his confidence obviously shot. Selimov threw halfhearted punches at Lomachenko after the final two bells, and he refused to shake Lomachenko's hand afterward.
Lomachenko's path to the final gets only slightly easier in the second round against Bahodirjon Sultonov of Uzbekistan, another serious medal contender who beat India's Anthresh Lakra.
Williams easily won his opener, 9-1 over Italy's Alessio di Savino, to improve the U.S. team to 3-1 before lightweight Sadam Ali's evening bout.
Williams, a 19-year-old aspiring accountant from Cleveland, was too quick with both his hands and feet, dancing circles around di Savino and landing just enough punches to win easily.
"That's what I'm trying to do - not get hit," Williams said. "I just worked on things. He came in there a little weird and I had to get adjusted, but once I did, it was a good fight from there."
Alexey Tishchenko, Russia's gold-medal featherweight in Athens, opened his attempt to add a lightweight gold to his collection with a 10-2 win over Tunisia's Saifeddine Nejmaoui.
Tishchenko, who has a day job as a professor of boxing at a university back home in Siberia, lost a semifinal bout at last year's world championships to Britain's Frankie Gavin, who declared himself out of the Olympics last Thursday because he couldn't make weight.
Tishchenko could become just the fourth boxer in Olympic history to win gold medals in two weight classes, joining Hungary's Laszlo Papp, Cuba's Angel Herrera and American Oliver Kirk, who won at both 115 and 125 pounds in Olympic boxing's debut in St. Louis in 1904.
China sent its third boxer into the second round when featherweight Yang Li easily beat Brazil's Robson Conceicao 12-4, and Cuba's youthful team stayed unbeaten with lightweight Yordenis Ugas' 21-3 win over Hamza Kramou of Algeria.
