Place du Jeu de Balle

Flea market, antiques, collections,... in a very typical and friendly atmosphere in Brussels, 365 days a year!
The flea market on Place du Jeu de Balle, which is, wrongly, nicknamed the Old Market, is open to all who want to find a bargain. You can find a bit of everything there.
It's one of the last places were you can negotiate a bit.
But be careful, don't negotiate any old way! The prices are still the prices and you can often find real quality, so don't ask for too much of a discount.
Regulars say that the best days to go are Thursday and Friday. However, on Saturdays and Sundays you might find more specific or rare pieces that are only available at the weekend.
Also discover the antique dealers and second-hand goods shops in the surrounding rue Haute, rue Blase and place du Sablon.
The flea market on place du Jeu de Balle is more than just a flea market, it's an atmosphere!
The market is open everyday, all year round, from 6am to 2pm on weekdays and from 6am to 3pm on weekends.

In my experience, a softer crust. Great for Sicilian style. What kind of pizza is he making?
I was speaking with a pizza shop owner today and he said that the secret to his success was using whole milk in his dough. His ratio is 4 parts water and 1 part milk. What qualities do you suppose milk would impart to dough on its journey toward becoming a crust? Does anyone have any experience with this?

I have translated 40 sonnets into Farsi, and I am looking for a way to get them published in a book. If can help me please inform me. thanks
Megan W. says:
I love sonnet 145. That has to be one of my favorite sonnets.
And 130 is just great. Like a straight smack to the face 😀
Cate says:
Like sonnet 45 too. It's all about how you interpret it.;-)
Cate says:
Love sonnet 19. Oh Shakespeare
Adithya says:
shakespeare is my favorite and especially his sonnet 18 he handle words with such delicacy and he express his feelings with simplicity and beauty and thats what makes him a great poet.
sindy says:
I like sonnets.I find this useful and easier to understand
Daniel Klayton says:
Ahh, I love the sonnets! I think I'm getting ready for a new reading of them… I like to go back and rediscover them every once in awhile 🙂
I love the snarkiness of sonnet 11: "Nature meant for ugly people to die without having kids, because they're so dang ugly"… oh Shakespeare….
I wrote a piece about the sonnet as a form – what it can accomplish, and what the structure makes it particularly attuned to… if you love Shakespeare's sonnets, check it out, methinks you'll enjoy it 🙂
Candido says:
Huh…..I think he ment that they were ugly figurtivly.
Daniel Klayton says:
Mm, well that certainly would be one way of reading it.
Frankly though, I think we're a bit too ready to remember Shakespeare as the cosmically-super-serious-brilliant voice of Hamlet, and not as the hilariously-snarky-and-inappropriate voice of Falstaff. Especially in his sonnets, in which I think he's far more often intending to be ironic and funny than I think he's given credit for.
If he's being serious in Sonnet 11 when he says certain people should rightly "barrenly perish," then he's sort of being a jerk – whether he's talking about physically unattractive people, rude people, mean people, dumb people – whomever.
If he's being serious, then the sonnet is elitist and eugenist. If he's being snarky and funny, then the sonnet is snarky and funny.
I'll take the latter 😉
Anna says:
I think that they are written amazingly and flow so lovely and fluently
lol says:
i recomend u to read shall i compare thee to a summer day its beutiful from the heart
megan says:
sonnet 18 is beautiful now that i understand it fully in modern english. I have put it into my homework about shakespeare sonnets 🙂

I have to admit, I was surprised by the results of yesterday's Poll. The vast majority just started drinking tea for the sake of drinking TEA.
Welcome to TeaDay one and all. I hope you have many cups of TEA. Please stop by here whenever you are able and share what is or was in your cup today...stop by often. Of course, also see what everyone else is sipping as well...that is half the fun.
We take a different turn in our TeaJourney today. Today's TeaPoll and discussion topic, do you have any Chinese pets of the mythological kind around your home or work? Dragons and Foo Dogs fascinate many Americans and other non Asians...are you one of them. Do you admire a stunning lifesize Chinese Dragon or pair of Foo Dogs in pictures or if you are fortunate enough in person? Do you admire these creatures in prints?
Does Long Jing, the mythical benevolent dragon and namesake of Dragon Well Tea, live in your heart?
Maybe, do you have a Dragon themed teapot???
I am anxious to see all you TeaChatters on TeaDay today.

Skip to comments.Critics blast Arpaio's "birther" findings, others distance themselves .
Posted on 07/18/2012 6:27:13 PM PDT by Tex-Con-Man
Tuesday evening, officials from Hawaii responded to Arpaio's allegations that their lax laws on birth certificates could pose a national security threat, saying the allegations "are untrue, misinformed, and misconstrue Hawaii law."
Joshua A. Wisch, Special Assistant to the Attorney General of Hawaii released this statement:
The State of Hawaii has repeatedly confirmed the indisputable evidence of President Obamas birth in Hawaii. An exhaustive accounting of this is provided on the State Department of Health (DOH) website (http://hawaii.gov/health/vital-records/obama.html). When this issue last arose in May, the Washington Post noted that the Hawaii Department of Health has released both the short and long forms of the presidents birth certificate; and that all this information, along with clear-as-a-bell explanations, is available to the public online. (http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/in-arizona-the-birther-plot-plays-on/2012/05/21/gIQAV9tYgU_story.html?tid=pm_pop)
President Obama was born in Honolulu, and his birth certificate is valid.
Regarding the latest allegations from a sheriff in Arizona, they are untrue, misinformed, and misconstrue Hawaii law. The purpose of section 338-17.8, Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS), is to accommodate foreign-born individuals whose parents were residents of Hawaii but were temporarily outside of this state due to employment or military service. Similar to section 338-20.5, HRS, which provides for a certificate of foreign birth, anyone who receives a birth certificate under this section would have noted on their birth certificate the physical location of their actual birth. It does not confer citizenship, which is, of course, a power of the federal government.
We also note that section 338-17.8 was not passed until 1982, so it cannot apply to President Obama, who was born at the Kapiolani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital in Honolulu in 1961, as is reflected on his certificate of live birth, a copy of which can be viewed on the White House website, a link to which is provided on DOHs website.
Vital records in Hawaii have some of the highest levels of privacy protection in the nation. Not only are Hawaiis vital records some of the best managed, but they also have some of the strongest restrictions on access to prevent identity theft and fraud.

I know it won't convert the true believers.
nope its a say nothing bunch of garbage by a dem hack....quoting the WP
Why dosn't Hawaii make a meeting with Arpaio's lead investigator and explain the discrepancies piece by piece.
Obama is a fraud CON. You know it, we know it, and everyone knows it. And the Hawaii government is corrupt.
I think you should respond to this article.
We also note that section 338-17.8 was not passed until 1982, so it cannot apply to President Obama, who was born at the Kapiolani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital in Honolulu in 1961, as is reflected on his certificate of live birth, a copy of which can be viewed on the White House website, a link to which is provided on DOHs website.
So he is confirming that Barack Hussein Obama II was born in Kapiolani Hospital, eh? Then why did Kapiolani pull that fundraising letter when they started getting heat about it?
I noticed that this clown did not address how easy it was to get a Hawaiian birf certificate in 1961. Specifically, the law that was in effect from 1955 to 1982. Zullo went over that Hawaiian statute in detail.
The more we learn about about that con, Obama it gets worse. He was put there not by the voters; but by Soros.
Dear Mr. Wisch,
Show us the microfilm.
The American Public
How dang difficult is it for the "ones in the know" to realize, or understand the "Natural Born Citizen". You know, a child born whose BOTH parents are Citizens at the time of said child's birth.
Although the BC from 0pansy is a fraudulent one (and very important), the BC is only a distraction over the NBC issue. Just my thoughts.
Wisch can say all he wants but he's not even authorized to see the records in question. When Wisch says that Obama's birth certificate is "valid", what birth certificate is he talking about, and how does he know whether it is or isn't, if he hasn't been allowed to see the record? Which law allows Wisch to say what is on Obama's birth record? When Zullo spoke to Jill Nagamine (deputy AG) she said that they can't say anything unless there is an official procedure for a qualified person to get a "verification".
And the truth of the matter is that AZ SOS Ken Bennett filled out an official application for a verification of Obama's true birth facts (DOB, gender, city of birth, island of birth, mother's name, and father's name). According to HI statute HRS 338-14.3 the DOH SHALL (mandatory, no wiggle room) issue a verification of the existence of a vital record AND anything that a qualified applicant requests to be verified pertaining to the vital event. The law stipulates that a verification is a certification that the vital even happened as described by the applicant. IOW, as long as the applicant provides birth facts to be verified that are on a legally valid vital record, the HDOH is REQUIRED to verify those as the true facts.
So what did Onaka do? He refused to verify Obama's gender as male, DOB as Aug 4, 1961, city of birth as Honolulu, island of birth as Oahu, mother as Stanley Ann Dunham Obama, and father's name as Barack Hussein Obama. According to the requirements of HRS 338-14.3 the only legal reason for him to refuse to verify those facts to a qualified applicant (which HI recognized Bennett as being by providing a verification of the existence of the birth record) is if they cannot say that the vital event really happened that way. Onaka verified that the claims on the posted long-form are what is claimed in their records, so the only reason left for Onaka to refuse to verify those facts is because the record they have is NOT LEGALLY VALID.
So Wisch can say all he wants with his unaccountable blowing out his rear, but Onaka has rules he has to follow, and when asked specifically whether Barack Hussein Obama II, male, was born on Aug 4, 1961 in Honolulu on the island of Oahu to mother Stanley Ann Dunham Obama and father Barack Hussein Obama, and being required to say yes to any of those items which were true.... he refused to say yes to ANY of those items.
So there is our answer. Hawaii has spoken. The record they have for Obama is not legally valid, according to the only one qualified to answer that question, when subjected to the laws governing verification.
Furthermore, the HDOH has been caught 3 times now falsifying official records, so even with all the hedging around the HDOH did in the instances cited by Wisch, there is little reason to believe them, because they've already shown blatant willingness to falsify official records:
1. the 1960-64 birth index so that it includes legally non-valid records.
2. Virginia Sunahara's database record, so that it didn't show up under her name when queried. Whose name was her record under at that time, if not her own?
3. The HDOH altered Stig Waidelich's BC# in a stunt coordinated with CNN. Here's what I posted elsewhere regarding this latest falsification which I suspected long ago but which is now proven:
Interesting that you bring up CNN...
Based on what Verna Lee said, there is no way that Stig WAidelich was given a BC# 282 later than Gretchen Nordyke, who was born 28 minutes before him. For 282 people to be born in those 28 minutes would require a birth rate 336 times the birth rate in Honolulu for August of 1961.
The HDOH fabricated a BC# for Stig Waidelich to make it appear that BC#s were not issued sequentially (in order to try to explain away Obamas BC# discrepancy). And in order to get that false BC# out into the public they arranged a stunt with CNN, where CNN would focus on Stig Waidelich and have him order his BC and pick up the COLB straight from the HDOH office while the CNN cameras videotaped, including the BC#.
By about 6am the morning after that segment by Gary Tuchmann aired on CNN on April 25, 2011... an Obama supporter submitted a comment on my blog asking whether I had seen Stig Waidelichs BC# and that it contradicted what I was saying about Obamas BC# being a discrepancy.
That segment showing the BC# that was specifically fabricated by the HDOH for CNN cameras was re-aired on May 30th, when Mike Zullo was in Hawaii investigating the fraud surrounding Obamas BC. Thats TWICE that CNN aired the stunt that they worked out with the HDOH in order to get FALSIFIED records into the public eye.
So when you mention CNN, they actually DID play a hand in a fabricated birth certificate: Stig Waidelichs. With the help of the HDOH itself.
This is much, much bigger than Rathergate.
What does ol' Josh have to say about the multitude of layers in the PDF of the LFBC which should not be there; or the handwritten codes put into the BC form by the registrar that were tampered with and which, as a result of the tampering, contradict each other, etc?
That registrar, Ms. Lee, is still living, and was interviewed by the Cold Case Posse. She has seen how her document has been altered, and as I understand it, she is pissed!
I can see where Hawaii has gotten itself into a real bind. They started the cover-up some years ago, at the behest of Zero's lawyers, thinking it was a minor detail and would never come up again.
So now they are stuck with their story and have to stonewall, because they can't let anyone actually EXAMINE the ORIGINAL document which is in their archives; so they suggest that interested parties look at the LFBC on Obama's website. IMHO, one will get just as much true information by examining a single square of Charmin toilet tissue!
"Vital records in Hawaii have some of the highest levels of privacy protection in the nation. Not only are Hawaiis vital records some of the best managed, but they also have some of the strongest restrictions on access to prevent identity theft and fraud."
Yeah, sure ya do...
LoL. This guy wishes that Obama was born there as 'true and accurate'. What happen is Obama amended his bogus vital records possible over and over again.
That's what Sheriff Joe and his Posse have proven. As far as Hawaii's Birth Certificate issuing practices ... well that's very old news, too.
"Baby born my house. I witness."
Baby born Hong Kong, now 14 year old, 26 year old? No problem.
Kapiolani? No Way José, or they would have let Zullo see the register. Attack the evidence? Why no. Let's attack Sheriff Joe.
Wasn't there some info that surfaced some time back which specified that while Zero and his accomplices claim he was born at that hospital; back in 1961 when the birth is alleged to have taken place, that facility did not go by that name! It did not get that name until around 1979, if memory serves.
Doesn't that say it all? He quoted the Washington Post. All the DOH website says about this is that they gave OBAMA'S LAWYER 2 CERTIFIED PHOTOCOPIES, and Obama posted something online.
When officially asked to verify that the online BC that Obama posted was a "true and accurate representation of the original record on file" Onaka refused to verify that. The statute does not allow Onaka to verify something different than what was requested. By not verifying that the online BC was a "true and accurate representation of the original record on file", as specifically requested by AZ SOS Ken Bennett, Onaka was REFUSING TO VERIFY THAT. The only reason he has for refusing to verify it is if it's not true.
So again, the unaccountable blowhards can say all they want, but when the question was asked point-blank by somebody required by law to answer honestly.... he indirectly confirmed that the posted BC is NOT a true and accurate representation of the original on file and that the record they have is not legally valid - by refusing to verify any of those things as true.
"President Obama was born in Honolulu, and his birth certificate is valid."
Maybe it is valid. Maybe he was born in Honolulu.
Maybe it has the wrong Father on it.
"Maybe it has the wrong Father on it."...I believe you have the answer.
An affidavit of truth give you powers against the government.
Learn their power and how to use them.
If it was valid, Onaka would have had to verify the stuff AZ SOS Ken Bennett submitted on the verification application form. He refused to do that.
Wisch doesn't have to play by any rules. Onaka does. And the one who has to play by the rules would not verify as true ANY of the claims on Obama's birth certificate in their office.
When a person submits the application that's like saying to Onaka, "Is that your final answer?" There's no going back after that. Onaka's final answer was that he could not verify any of Obama's birth facts as true.
Actually I just re-read a document this morning that was put out by Catholic Charities years ago and gave the histories of the hospitals that were involved in their adoptions, and Kapiolani was listed under that name at that time.
Of course, there were claims that he was born at Queen's Medical Center. Those got changed somewhere down the line. And, also there was Obama's literary biography in which he claimed until 2007(?) that he was born in Kenya...
It sure as hell does apply to Obama. Perhaps Wisch should go back and read the statute or take a reading comprehension course. Here it is ( with the relevant parts in bold ):
[§338-17.8] Certificates for children born out of State.
(a) Upon application of an adult or the legal parents of a minor child, the director of health shall issue a birth certificate for such adult or minor, provided that proof has been submitted to the director of health that the legal parents of such individual while living without the Territory or State of Hawaii had declared the Territory or State of Hawaii as their legal residence for at least one year immediately preceding the birth or adoption of such child
Now Wisch may be too dimwitted to comprehend this, but an adult is someone over 18. They are not talking about a minor. Once again :
Upon application of an adult...., the director of health shall issue a birth certificate for such adult
As I recall Zullo saying, after the Hawaiian DoH calls the cops on the Posse, and the Honolulu cop(s) sees the Posse in suits and ties, they or he leaves shaking their head(s) LoL. Then assistant AG Jill Nagamine shows up "to greet" the Posse.
They have a meeting for about 15 minutes. Nagamine said in the meeting once the HI birf certificate gets out of their hands, it's not their responsibility anymore or very close to those words. So Obot Nagamine doesn't care about Hawaiian birth certificate fraud. Or at least when it comes to Obama who is complicit in document fraud.
Hawaii says "Who? Us? No way man!"
Obviously they are telling the truth. Everyone knows that if they were guilty they would admit it.
But BO himself said he was born in Kenya in his bio. Which is it? Why don't Republicans pressure him to face what he says?
But BO himself said he was born in Kenya in his bio. Which is it? Why don't Republicans pressure him to face what he says?
...We also note that section 338-17.8 was not passed until 1982, so it cannot apply to President Obama, who was born at the Kapiolani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital in Honolulu in 1961, as is reflected on his certificate of live birth, a copy of which can be viewed on the White House website, a link to which is provided on DOHs website.
Actually, the Hawaiian 1982 law does apply Wisch. Section 338-17.8 states it retroactively as we see below when Hawaii was a Territory:
This part OBot Wisch -
"[§338-17.8]... Certificates for children born out of State. ... the legal parents of such individual while living without the Territory or State of Hawaii had declared the Territory or State of Hawaii as their legal residence for at least one year immediately preceding the birth or adoption of such child.... "
If that's not good for you the delusional OBots, here is the 1955 law that governed Barrack Obama alleged HI birth in 1961. Look and read closely at the highlighted box:
Again, the HI statute that was in effect from 1955 to 1982.
"Section 57-9 Local registrar to prepare birth certificate.
(a) If neither parent as above provided is able to prepare a birth certificate, the local registrar shall secure the necessary information from any person having knowledge of the birth and prepare and file the certificate."
Amendments to the Hawaiian birth certificate can be made at any time in the future whether that it is 6 months after the alleged Hawaiian birth or it is 60 years after the alleged Hawaiian birth.
Tex-Con-Man - "I know it won't convert the true believers.
Hawaii is getting skewered here with the truth CON as we all can plainly see.
Thanks for the ping.
"Section 57-9 Local registrar to prepare birth certificate.
(a) If neither parent of the newborn child whose birth is unattended as above provided is able to prepare a birth certificate, the local registrar shall secure the necessary information from any person having knowledge of the birth and prepare file the certificate. "
Thanks Lj.
I'm going through my downloaded page captures that I have not put on the Internet. That 1955 HI law was one of them. It may not even be on the Internet anymore so I placed the scanned image on the Web for all to see in black in white. ;-)
Nagamine said once the HI birf certificate gets out of their hands, it's not their responsibility anymore ....
Gang, I hate to sound like a one-line parrot here
Insofar as they can lead us to be discussing the laws of Hawaii, bits, bytes, pixels, layers, etc, they can keep us circling our own camp fire forever.
What Hawaii is needlessly helping Obama to try and hide is simply that the two items are NOT the same. That's the Emperor's Clothes, The Nose on Your Face, if it Were a Snake, it would have Bitten Us, Hidden in Plain Sight, Blinding Glimpse of the Obvious Truth here.
Photocopies, by definition, are "flattened" (no layers). All the lawyers have to do is produce one of those two "CERTIFIED PHOTOCOPIES", hold it up beside the image posted online -- and show that the two are visually identical. (And, of course explain where all the layers, different-resolution and moveable image elements -- and the typed-in data in the two "9-coded" (EMPTY) blocks, etc. came from.)
But, of course, they can't do that...
The "document" is a fake because:
Not only are Hawaiis vital records some of the best managed, but they also have some of the strongest restrictions on access to prevent identity theft and fraud.
Maybe he can explain this story from just a couple of years ago:
Hawai'i ranks 6th in ID theft
Hawai'i has the sixth-worst record in the nation for identity theft and fraud, a new study shows
"Local businesses and even national businesses need to be aware that Honolulu ... has a substantially higher identity fraud rate," said Stephen Coggeshall, author of the report by San Diego-based ID Analytics Inc.
"The problem is growing and has been growing," added Chris Van Marter, Honolulu deputy prosecuting attorney and head of a white-collar crime unit. "The problem is going to get worse before it gets better."
Stop with the true believer junk. We all know there is something wrong with Obama. We all know he was placed there not by the voters; but a special group of elicits.
I know, that is what is so maddening: Obama has never been confronted for an explanation about where his Kenyan biography could possibly have come from if not himself. The only excuse to date has been the laughable claim by his editor at the agency that the born-in-Kenya bio was a "fact checking error." Uh, where did the facts being checked come from in the first place?
Obama should have been hounded about where the biographical information could possibly have originated other than from him. And I would LOVE to see him asked at a press conference why he shouldnt apologize to the patriotic people he allowed to be ridiculed as crackpots or "birthers."
I don't think Sheriff Joe is going to like this- I can't wait to hear his response to Hawaii
They were not even allowed access to PUBLIC records when they went down there- Everyone they encountered in Hawaii stood in their way at every turn.
Even the simple hospital registration book- which could have ended it right there- was kept from them.
Exactly !!! That point keeps on having to be made. If Trump ever decides to defend his honor, that is the phrase he should repeat over and over. Plus it is perfect for bumper stickers !!!!
He needs no more authority than he already has under the state Constitution
The State of Hawaii has fought tooth and nail to avoid having anyone actually see the original record. Why?
What could possibly the reason if the original record is there? Why can they not just show it and be done with it?
IMO which isn't worth anything, They are hiding factual information.
Sadly, you are absolutely correct.
Thanks for the explanation on Stig Waidelich's BC#. I had seen incomplete reference to it on another thread or two, and was wondering what that was all about.
The trail of corruption goes from the government in Hawaii to all of the other States, the entire upper echelons of the government, including, tragically, the military itself, up through the heads of state of other governments around the world, all pretending that this guy's legit.
"A copper wire snapped in Nevada."
Because Hawaii isn't stupid, in the future socialist changeover of America the middle class will be eliminated.
It will be the working class and the elite. The working class won't visit Hawaii and didn't spend enough when they did.
The new Americans the socialized elites will have their American "dachas" in Hawaii. Just the the Russians did.
Ruusian people didn't go visit Disney, Hawaii etc, no it was the politicians.
This is what Hawaii is investing in, to ensure it will be a politicians retreat, screw anyone else.
Whatever it was that Hawaii gave Obama,
it was not what Obama gave us.
Bears repeating. Well said, all!
Actually, RS was launching a jibe back at TCM's Alinsky-ite garbage in post #1. Hence this in post #30:
Tex-Con-Man - "I know it won't convert the true believers.
Well said, RS.
"All the DOH website says about this is that they gave OBAMAS LAWYER 2 CERTIFIED PHOTOCOPIES, and Obama posted something online."
And yet, the Hawaii DOH and Onaka have also said:
"The information contained in the 'Certificate of Live Birth' published at http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2011/04/27/president-obamas-long-form-birth-certificate and reviewed by me on the date of this verification, a copy of which is attached with your request, matches the information contained in the original Certificate of Live Birth for Barack Hussein Obama, II on file with the State of Hawaii Department of Health"
I meant Tex-Con-Man. Didn't put his name down.

Volunteer steals nearly $100,000 from Wanamaker, Kempton and Southern Railroad, police say
Treasurer James Krause charged with theft, related offenses
ALBANY TWP., Pa. - The wheels of justice are turning for a longtime volunteer of the Wanamaker, Kempton and Southern Railroad.
It's known as Berks County's hidden gem, but the railroad has been derailed by the appointed treasurer, said officials.
James Krause, 43, of Schnecksville, Lehigh County, is accused of stealing nearly $100,000 in a year's time.
"We're all there for one love and to find out that trust has been destroyed and violated is a real shame," said Oliver Blatt, president of Wanamaker, Kempton & Southern Railroad Inc., who added the accounts just weren't adding up.
According to court documents, Krause stole $36,471.41 from the company's checking and savings accounts between January and December 2013. They also state he bought $22,229.83 in fraudulent purchases from Home Depot and Lowe's on the business' account, and took $36,837.00 in ticket sales.
"It was always weird because he was like, 'Oh, money is no object. No problem, no problem,' so he talked about money a lot," said Kyra Hendricks, who worked with Krause organizing events at the railroad.
The nonprofit just celebrated 50 years in business in 2013. It's run entirely by volunteers and offers scenic train rides to the public.
"It was really surprising. We've been trying to get in touch with him for a couple of months and he hasn't responded," said Arian Hungasai, who owns Wanamakers General Store at the end of the tracks.
Krause didn't answer the door at his house on Tuesday. Court records show he also pleaded guilty to child pornography charges in 1999. Blatt said he had no idea, but Krause is no longer a volunteer.
Now, officials are trying to get the gem back on the right track.
"The railroad is still going to be there. We're still going to be operating trains and we're going to recover from this," said Blatt.
Blatt said new procedures have been put in place for their accounting and the hiring of volunteers to help prevent this from happening again. He said Krause's alleged actions are not what the railroad stands for, and he hopes people will continue to ride.
Krause was arraigned Monday on theft and related charges, according to court records.

It took me by surprise that I cried when Steve Jobs died. I was surprised to feel so moved by the loss of someone who was essentially a modern industrialist. But of course, his acumen as a businessman was not what I was mourning. Jobs' work has moved us in ways that the work of his contemporary Bill Gates never has. Gates's influence on our culture has been just as powerful, but has not touched as profoundly. Why?
The vast digital domain that we think of when we imagine information technology is essentially non-physical in nature. It is, by definition, incorporeal. But like all incorporeal things – our thoughts, our dreams, our faith, our souls – it relies on bodies for manifestation in the physical world. The digital needs the analog to express itself.

CAREER DESCRIPTION: Software Engineer
In general, software engineers design and develop solutions to complex applications problems, system administration issues, or network concerns. They also perform systems management and integration functions.
Software engineers furnish advice on project costs or layout changes. They also document layout specifications and other system-related data. Equally important, software engineers have to verify the stability or scalability of system architecture. They are often called upon to complete models and simulations, using manual or automated tools, to analyze or predict system performance under different operating conditions. They are expected to identify system data or software components used to meet user needs. Finally, software engineers collaborate with engineers or software developers to decide on appropriate layout solutions or insure the compatibility of system components.
Every day, software engineers are expected to be able to write clearly and communicate well. They need to listen to and understand others in meetings. It is also important that they read and understand documents and reports.
It is important for software engineers to perform ongoing hardware and software maintenance operations, including installing or upgrading hardware or software. They are often called upon to research or verify proper functioning of software patches and fixes. They also train system users in system operation or maintenance. They are sometimes expected to perform security analyses of developed or packaged software components. Somewhat less frequently, software engineers are also expected to train system users in system operation or maintenance.
They also have to be able to communicate project data through presentations, technical reports or white papers and evaluate current or emerging technologies to consider factors such as cost or usability. And finally, they sometimes have to direct the installation of operating systems, network or application software, or computer or network hardware.
Like many other jobs, software engineers must be able to absorb the factors involved and a problem and provide a well thought out solution and be thorough and dependable.

Tal Moriah Named to Replace David Bartlett on Pan Am Championships Team
Due to coaching obligations with the U.S. Army's World Class Athlete Program, men's lightweight David Bartlett (Colorado Springs, Colo.) has retired from the sport of taekwondo and will relinquish his spot on the Pan American Taekwondo Championships Team. Tal Moriah (Houston, Texas) will take Bartlett's position on the U.S. Team that will compete in Caguas, Puerto Rico, Oct. 3-5.
Bartlett, 28, won the 2008 World Military Championships and is a four-time U.S. national champion (1999, 2002, 2003 & 2006).
"A few months ago I was approached with the opportunity to coach the Taekwondo athletes in the Army's World Class Athlete Program and I accepted," said Bartlett. "I had absolutely no idea that I would be giving up my dream as a competitor at the same time. I was basing my decision off the fact that for the past three years I have been training as an athlete/coach. I had all intentions while enduring one of the toughest training camps in my taekwondo career to make the Pan Am Team and to compete at the Championships in Caguas, Puerto Rico. Upon completion of the selection camp I attended some meetings within the Army only to find out that my decision to coach was only to coach and that was that. Unfortunately I am announcing my retirement as a competitor in the sport of taekwondo.
"My next adventure stands before me, as one day I may place many soldier athletes on the Olympic team. Currently I have notified USA Taekwondo of my military obligation and my commitment to my family as they have always come first, and that I will resign my spot on the national team as a competing athlete. I have been very fortunate and blessed to be able to still attend the 2008 Pan Am Championships as part of the staff delegation to support and help team USA finish first as a whole. I have been absolutely supported by USAT and the U.S Army to pursue my coaching obligation and commitment to my country. I look forward to learning and observing from our National Team coaches as they have proven to be the best in the world."
"It is with great sadness that we have accepted the retirement of David Bartlett from our National Team programs and our Pan American Championship Team," said USAT CEO David Askinas. "David Bartlett was not only a world class athlete but he embodied the true fighting spirit we want to see in our National Team athletes. He always came to fight. David represents so much of what is good about our sport and our country. His skill, determination, physical conditioning and heart were evident for all to see. His performances in the 2007 World Championships in Beijing were inspiring. I cite his comeback win against a very good fighter from Spain as one of the best matches I have ever watched in this sport. Although David Bartlett the fighter will be missed, we now look forward to David's development as a high level coach and expect him to soon be producing world class fighters for our national team pipeline. Thank you David for all you have done for taekwondo and all you are about to do."

A nonprofit environmental magazine published by the University of Minnesota that's been quietly racking up awards for three years is moving on to bigger and bolder things.
On Tuesday, the university announced that Momentum, a thrice yearly publication launched in fall 2008, will now be called Ensia, and that with the new name comes a sleek new website designed to meet "a growing demand for trusted, solution-focused communication about environmental topics."
The online expansion, made possible by a grant from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation (which supports environmental conservation) and funding from private donors, will allow a tenfold increase in the amount of content produced annually, according to Todd Reubold, Ensia's director and founding editor.
"Momentum had a website, but we mainly repurposed what we did in print and placed it online," he said. "So, we wanted to create this Web presence in order to reach an even larger national audience, and hopefully, in the long term, a global audience."
The new site is sharp, relying on "responsive Web design," a technique that more and more news outlets are deploying to create pages that are easy to use and that will look nice on any computer, tablet, or smartphone. With easy-to-navigate topic categories (business, culture, water, etc.) and content sections (articles, interviews, videos, etc.), Ensia is a fitting vessel for the type of top-notch content that the outlet is used to producing.
Published by the university's Institute on the Environment, Momentum was anything but a dry, academic journal, and while the focus was solutions to complex environmental problems (from climate change to world hunger), it eschewed advocacy in favor of impartial reporting. In fact, Momentum carried the work of some of the country's best science and environmental journalists, including Hillary Rosner, David Biello, Emily Gertz, and Brandon Keim, and won a slew of awards in the process. In 2012, it took home six prizes at the annual Minnesota Magazine and Publishing Association ceremony, including four gold medals for best overall design, single-topic issue, editor's letter, and technical article.
Keeping the same focus and publisher, Ensia ("environmental solutions in action") hopes to expand on that success, according to editor-in-chief Mary Hoff. "We'll be looking at stories that aren't being told in other places, either because they're just emerging or because they've been flying under the radar," she said, "and we're really going to count on our large network of experts and freelancers to find those stories and bring them to us, so that we can share them with others."
If that's the case, the new site is off to a good start. Reubold said he's particularly excited about a new section called Voices, which is designed to showcase established environmental leaders as well as less visible characters from the news media, the business world, government, nonprofits, and elsewhere. The section currently features interesting op-eds, including, "Obama: Stealth Climate Warrior?", by Jonathan Foley, director of the Institute on the Environment, and "Deep Green Investing—A closer look at what Bill McKibben's divestment strategy means for you and me," by freelance journalist Marc Gunther.
Elsewhere on the site, there are terrific features about the impact of ocean acidification on sea life by Elizabeth Grossman, and employing "biomimicry" in the design of urban infrastructure by Nate Berg. Both pieces are slated for the inaugural print issue of Ensia (the latter as the cover), which comes out next week. Other writers will include futurist Jamais Cascio, renewable energy expert Peggy Liu, author Maggie Koerth-Baker, and economist Gernot Wagner.
Ensia already has a number of media partners, from Forbes to The Aspen Institute, and is actively seeking more. The main idea is to co-produce and co-publish articles, akin to what ProPublica and other successful nonprofits have done, Reubold said, although the type of partnership will vary.
In addition to the magazine and website, Ensia will also continue the speakers series that started under Momentum, with three guests lined up for the spring. But these mostly reach a local and regional audience, Reubold, and in keeping with the expansion, the long-term plan is launch a series of multiday events that draw national and international participation.
I wish them well. With mainstreams outlets giving short shrift to coverage of the environment, it's nice to see an alternative news source, especially one with such a strong track record, expanding.

Report of the U.S. Delegate, 25th Session, Codex Committee on General Principles
Mar 30-Apr 3, 2009
Paris, France
The United States was generally pleased with the results of the 25th Session of the Codex Committee on General Principles (CCGP). The Committee:
- Completed work on revision to the Code of Ethics for International Trade in Food, recommending adoption by the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) at Steps 5/8.
- Furthered considered the area of consensus and agreed upon a number of additional recommendations to foster consensus in Codex standards decision-making. The Committee did not agree to establishing a definition for consensus at this time but did agree to consider the possibility of a study to assess the feasibility of using a qualified majority voting process to adopt standards.
- Discussed a number of possible means to enhance the role of developing countries in the work of Codex with the results of the discussion to be forwarded to the CAC for its consideration at the upcoming 32nd Session of the Commission.
- Agreed that the existing Terms of Reference of Codex Regional Coordinating Committees do not have to be changed to permit these Committees from discussing matters of importance to the Region and to promote the adoption of regional positions on strategic subjects.
- Endorsed for adoption by the CAC the Draft Nutritional Risk Analysis Principles and Guidelines for Application to the Work of the Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses.
- Due to a lack of time, did not discuss in depth the adjusting or removing of language relating the acceptance of Codex texts from certain Codex commodity standards (the Codex Acceptance Procedure was abolished in 2005), but did add a footnote to fourth Statement of Principle Concerning the Role of Science in the Codex Decision-Making Process noting that the Acceptance Procedure had been abolished. The Committee also amended the Terms of Reference of CCGP to remove reference to the Acceptance Procedure.
- Agreed to discontinue work on a proposal to distinguish between Codex standards based on a risk assessment and "enabling standards" (that is, standards based on science but not based on a risk assessment).
- Agreed that references in the Procedural Manual and in the Report of the 31st Session of the Codex Executive Committee (CCEXEC) relating to the recording of minority views and/or country reservations regarding a Committee decision were complementary and not redundant, and should all be retained. Further, that the guidance provided by the CCEXEC should be integrated into the Procedural Manual.
- Agreed to develop a Discussion Paper considering possible further engagement between Codex and the OIE.
Additionally, due to the lateness of the Agenda Paper, the Committee postponed a review of the consistency between guidelines on the application of risk analysis principles prepared by following Codex Committees: Food Additives; Contaminants; Pesticide Residue; and Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Use.
The 25th Session of CCGP was attended by 200 Delegates representing 68 member countries, one member organization (EC), and 18 international organizations. The United States was represented by the Co-U.S. Delegates, Dr. Michael Wehr, FDA, and Ms. Barbara McNiff, USDA FSIS, nine (9) government advisors and four (4) non-government advisors.
The full report of the 25th Session of CCGP can be found in ALINORM 09/32/33 on the Codex web site, www.codexalimentarius.net.
The following summarizes the results of the Session.
Proposed Draft Revised Code of Ethics for International Trade in Food (Agenda Item 3)
The Codex Code of Ethics had been discussed at several previous Sessions of CCGP with mixed views on the need for the Code and, if retained, on its various previsions. CCGP, at its' last session, had considered a shortened version of the Code proposed by the United States. Additionally, at the last Session of CCGP, the Chairperson urged the Committee to make progress on the Code.
At this Session of CCGP, the Committee recognized the importance of ethics in international trade in food, especially to prevent the export of unsafe food to countries with no adequate legislation and/or food control system.
While mixed views regarding the need for the Code continued to be raised, the Committee agreed to undertake a section-by-section review, with the following substance changes made to the draft revised Code.
- Added reference to concessional and food aid in the title and scope of the Code.
- Added a reference in the scope of the Code that governments should work with other parties to promote ethical conduct at the national level.
- Added a principle that products introduced into international trade should have a remaining shelf life, where applicable, that allows sufficient time for distribution in the importing country.
- Added a provision that competent authorities involved in assuring the safety and suitability of food in international trade should apply principles of ethical conduct.
- Noted that exported food should meet the requirements of the exporting country unless otherwise established by legislation as may be in force in the importing country or explicitly accepted by the competent authorities in the importing country.
- Added a provision that food should not be placed into international trade for the purpose of disposing of unsafe or unsuitable food.
The Committee agreed to forward the Code for adoption by the CAC at Steps 5/8, although several countries stated their objections to this decision.
Consideration of the Concept of Consensus (Agenda Item 4)
At the 30th Session of the CAC the concept of consensus was discussed, and the Commission recommended that further study of consensus be a priority of the 25th Session of CCGP.
Prior to the meeting, the Secretariat disseminated the responses to a questionnaire completed by the Chairs on their interpretation and application of consensus for discussion at the 25th session. The FAO legal representative discussed the concept of consensus and its uniqueness in the Codex decision making process. He indicated that there was no legal impediment to the adoption of a definition of consensus, but the adoption of a definition would be a departure from UN and FAO procedures.
There was general discussion on consensus in which the following sentiments were expressed:
- Consensus should be all inclusive, taking into account all the views and concerns of every country, not just the industrialized nations.
- The views of the developing countries were necessary in order to impart legitimacy on the work of Codex.
- The Chairs had too much power and often claimed consensus when there was none.
- Chairs interpreted consensus very differently.
- Chairs are not always independent.
- Consensus was not unanimity, nor a quantifiable concern, or a narrow definition.
- Consensus was difficult for both the chairs and the delegates, especially those involved in the give and take process.
- The Procedural Manual contained sufficient guidance on consensus.
CCLAC put forth the following definition of consensus, "consensus is the absence of justified opposition from any member present at the meeting where the decision is taken." While some delegations supported this definition, others saw that it would be very difficult to arrive at a consensus regarding the meaning of "justified."
Some delegations were concerned that in order to achieve full consensus, the standards could become more diluted and weaker. Other delegations noted that consensus was particularly difficult to achieve for trade related issues.
Delegates were then given the opportunity to discuss several statements contained in the CL prepared by the Secretariat on consensus. On the whole, delegations supported the creation of a Chair's booklet on consensus and an annual meeting of the chairs in a facilitated forum.
The Committee agreed that:
- The Secretariat would
- Continue work on a brochure for the chairs.
- Convene an informal meeting of the chairs in conjunction with the Commission meeting.
- Explore possibilities for developing a reference document for delegates on consensus building.
- Problematic cases in which it does not appear consensus could be reached could be addressed by an informal meeting of the chairs.
- An amendment to the Guidelines to Chairpersons of Codex Committees and Ad Hoc Intergovernmental Task Forces allowing for the use of a facilitator in cases where the process of achieving consensus is stalled be forwarded to Commission.
- An evaluation sheet would be prepared to be used by the delegates at the conclusion of Codex meetings which would include questions on the performance of the chairperson.
Delegates remained divided on the need for a definition of consensus. Some delegates suggested that a study on the implications of a two thirds majority vote be undertaken, while other delegations did not agree that such a study was warranted. The Committee agreed that the Executive Committee and the Commission should consider commissioning a study on the pros and cons of qualified majority voting.
Participation of Developing Countries in the Work of Codex (Agenda Item 9)
In response to a request from the 31st Session of the Commission, the Secretariat prepared a document containing (1) data on the participation of developing countries in the work of Codex and (2) eight proposals to improve their participation.
The following recommendations received little or no support:
- Introducing video conferencing for Codex sessions
- Restricting the membership of Codex Committees and Task Forces
- Introducing remote voting in the Elaboration Procedure at Step 1
The Committee gave qualified support to recommendations involving
- Making the best use of written comments, although acknowledging this was unlikely to solve the fundamental problems.
- Fostering dynamic exchanges of opinions/comments outside physical meetings, such as electronic forms, e.g. blogs or chat rooms, but recognized that the responsibility of monitoring these forums would be an additional burden on Codex Contact Points.
The Committee was divided on the recommendation to reduce the number of Codex sessions per year and per biennium with several delegations suggesting that this would ease the workload of Codex members and allow them to better concentrate their resources, while other delegations believed the number and frequency of meetings should be dictated by the amount of work each committee had before them. Several delegations stated that the Commission should continue to meet annually in an effort to keep the work of Codex moving.
Some delegations believed the proposal to hold all Codex sessions in Rome or Geneva warranted further study, however, many other delegations opposed this proposal citing (1) the need for expert technical representation at committee meetings, which could not be provided by the permanent representatives who would most likely be attending meetings in Rome and Geneva, (2) the added costs to host countries, and (3) the lost opportunities for cost hosting.
The committee also believed that the recommendation proposing to extend the Codex Trust Fund to all Codex members and all Codex meetings was desirable, but unrealistic, given the high price tag ($14 million) it would cost every year.
In addition to the proposals above, significant discussion was devoted to the Codex Trust Fund. The Committee recognized the achievements and accomplishments of the Trust Fund — notably increased attendance by developing countries at Codex sessions and a strengthening of countries' food safety infrastructures — but several delegations expressed concern over the lack of effectiveness and transparency in the management of the Trust Fund. Others cited problems involving visas and last minute approvals which impacted the Trust Fund recipients' ability to properly prepare for meetings. The U.S. delegation requested that before the 32nd Session of the CAC, the WHO Secretariat prepare and circulate for comment a paper discussing the upcoming mid term evaluation of the Trust Fund, and at a minimum, include in the evaluation, a review of the recommendations put forth in the two studies that have been completed on the Trust Fund.
In response to the concerns expressed by some delegations, the WHO representative stressed the necessity to maintain distinction between different categories of beneficiary countries because the degrees of the need for support varied among countries.
Terms of Reference of FAO/WHO Regional Coordinating Committees (Agenda Item 6)
The Codex Committee on Latin America and the Caribbean, at the last Session of CCGP, had inquired as to whether the Terms of Reference (TOR) of Regional Coordinating Committees permitted these committees to discuss matters of importance to the Region and to promote the adoption of regional positions on strategic subjects and proposed a new (TOR) which would allow regional committees to carry out such matters. CCGP agreed to allow CCLAC to engage in this type of activity while forwarding the inquiry to all other Regional Coordinating Committees for their view on the subject.
Subsequently, all other FAO/WHO Regional Coordinating Committees considered the subject and expressed the view that the TOR of Regional Coordinating Committees do not have to be changed to permit these Committees from discussing matters of importance to the Region and to promote the adoption of regional positions on strategic subjects. Specifically, the Committees felt that current item (g) of the existing TOR of Regional Coordinating Committees ("exercises a general coordinating role for the region and such other functions as may be entrusted to it by the Commission") was sufficient to allow Regional Coordinating Committees to develop regional positions on strategic subjects.
The Committee recommended no changes be made to existing TOR for Regional Coordinating Committees.
References to the Acceptance in Codex Standards (Agenda Item 7)
The Codex Acceptance Procedure, that is, the procedure for the acceptance of Codex standards by Codex Member governments was abolished in 2005 in light of the fact that the WTO SPS and TBT Agreements placed obligations on signatories to base their standards on internationally harmonized norms to the extent possible. Subsequently Codex abolished most all references to the Codex Acceptance Procedure in both the Codex Procedural Manual and in Codex standards.
A late-arriving Discussion Paper prepared by the Codex Secretariat pointed out, however, several Codex commodity standards where reference to the Acceptance Procedure remained, or where there was other wording directing how countries should use the standard. The Paper made certain recommendations to either eliminate these recommendations or otherwise note the nature of use of Codex standards in light of the abolishment of the Acceptance Procedure.
Because of the late arrival of the Paper, countries asked for additional time to conduct a detailed review of the recommendations, including the need for a legal review of the recommendations with respect to countries' obligations under the SPS and TBT Agreements. The Committee agreed that no detailed discussion would take place on this Paper at this Session of CCGP, but that the matter would be taken up at the next Session of the CAC.
Japan, in a Conference room document, noted two additional references to the Codex Acceptance Procedure, specifically: 1) reference in the fourth Statement of Principle Concerning the Role of Science in the Codex Decision-Making 1 ; and 2) reference in the CCGP Terms of Reference 2 .
The Committee agreed to resolve item 1 (reference to Acceptance in the fourth Statement of Principle Concerning the Role of Science) by adding a footnote indicating that the Acceptance Procedure has been abolished.
The Committee agreed to resolve item 2 (relating to Acceptance in the CCGP Terms of Reference) by deleting the sentence containing examples. This change in the Committee's Terms of Reference will be forwarded to the Commission for approval.
Proposed New Definitions of Risk Analysis Terms Related to Food Safety (Agenda Item 8)
The Committee considered a paper prepared by New Zealand to differentiate between Codex standards prepared based on a risk analysis and other "enabling" standards that were based on science but not based on a specific risk-assessment. The Committee had twice previously considered and discussed this concept.
The Committee, while noting the points made in the paper should be borne in mind in the ongoing and further work of the Commission, noted that there was no need to continue work on this document.
Other Matters
Endorsement of Draft Nutritional Risk Analysis Principles and Guidelines for Application to the Work of the Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses
The Committee endorsed the Draft Nutritional Risk Analysis Principles and Guidelines for Application to the Work of the Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses and recommended their adoption by the CAC.
Recording of Minority Opinions
The Committee considered a request from the Codex Committee on Latin America and the Caribbean (CCLAC) as to whether statements in the Codex Procedural Manual (see Rule 10 and the section on "Conduct of Meetings") concerning the recording of minority opinions and the recording of countries' request to reserve their opinion on decisions taken by Codex committees/task forces were redundant. Further, whether additional guidance on this subject given by the CCEXEC at its 2008 Session was also redundant.
The Committee agreed that all three references were, in fact, complementary, were not redundant and should be retained. Further, that the guidance provided by CCEXEC should be integrated into the Codex Procedural Manual with a recommendation to do so made to the CAC.
In the context of this discussion many comments were made by members of CCLAC on the need to better take into account minority views expressed by Codex members.
Working Relationship Between Codex and OIE
The Organization for International Epizootics/Organization for Animal Health (OIE) presented a Conference Room document in which they proposed the development of Joint Standards by Codex and OIE. The Committee noted that this subject had been discussed previously by CCGP and the CAC at which time it was decided that the development of joint standards was not appropriate although a close working relationship between the two organizations was both appropriate and worthwhile. Since that time OIE has engaged in Codex work both through attending pertinent Codex committees and task forces (e.g., Task Force on Antimicrobial Resistance, Task Force on Biotechnology, Committee on Food Import and Export Inspection and Certification Systems) and participation in pertinent working groups of these committees and task forces.
The Committee again debated the appropriateness of developing joint standards. Some delegations noted specific concerns associated with the development of joint standards including differences between the two organizations in such areas as transparency and the adoption procedures. The Committee agreed that the Secretariat should prepare a discussion paper on the possible development of joint standards between Codex and the OIE, addressing all relevant procedural and other issues, as well as implications, for consideration by the next session of the CCGP.
Review of the Consistency between Guidelines on the Application of Risk Analysis (Agenda Item 5)
Due to the lateness of the Agenda Paper for this item, the Committee postponed a review of the consistency between guidelines on the application of risk analysis principles prepared by the following Codex Committees: Food Additives; Contaminants in Food; Pesticide Residues; and Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses.
Structure and Presentation of the Codex Procedural Manual (Agenda Item 10)
The Committee considered and endorsed a reorganized 18th Edition of the Codex Procedural Manual prepared by the Codex Secretariat.
Date and Place of the Next Session
The 25th Session of the Committee will be held in either 2010 or 2011 depending on actions taken by the CAC and the precise need for the next Session of CCGP. The Government of Mali invited CCGP to meeting in Mali for its next Session.
