Kelowna To Fly 'Pro-Life' Flag Over City Hall
Kelowna is set to become the first city in British Columbia to fly a "pro-life" flag over city hall.
The flag will fly during the last week of September, which the city has proclaimed "Protect Human Life Week," as it has done for the past five years.
Marlon Bartram, executive director of the Kelowna Right to Life Society, said the city hall rejected the flag's original design, which included the words 'From conception to natural death' along the bottom of the flag.
"That statement apparently violated their policy that the flag cannot advocate a certain point of view, be it political, religious or ethical," Bartram said.
Instead, the flag will be blue and white, with three silhouettes — a toddler, an adult and an elderly person — and with the word "pro-life" printed in capital letters across the centre.
"I think 'pro-life' is a very — I mean, it maybe has some history to it, for sure, but if you break it down, it's just we're for human life. There's nothing controversial there's nothing particularly political or religious about that statement," Bartram said.
A very different flag is flying over city hall this week.
For only the second year ever, a rainbow flag has been raised to mark Kelowna's gay pride celebrations.
City hall developed a policy last year, when it was asked to fly the rainbow flag for Pride Week.
The policy says that groups are forbidden from giving the impression the city endorses the cause behind a "courtesy flag."
While such a flag is a first for B.C., similar flags have been flown at city halls in Guelph and Whitby, Ont.
Corrections and Clarifications
An earlier version of this story said that Kelowna's city government had decided to fly the "pro-life" flag. In fact, the city is still considering the second flag design and has not yet made a decision.
Here's a look at the official position of Canada's federal parties, and how the controversial debate has reared its head in recent years. With files from CBC
Prime Minister Stephen Harper has repeatedly said that he has no interest in addressing the issue head-on."As long as I am prime minister we are not opening the abortion debate," Mr. Harper said in April 2011. "The government will not bring forward any such legislation, and any such legislation that is brought forward will be defeated as long as I am prime minister." (CP)
NDP leader Tom Mulcair has stated that his caucus is unanimous in its opposition to the private member's motion calling on Parliament to look at whether a fetus is a human being, but he plans to force his MPs to vote along party lines."We're resolutely in favour of women's right to choose," Mulcair declared. (CP)
Interim Liberal Leader Bob Rae has stressed that the abortion issue is matter of individual conscience. Rae expressed his personal opposition to reopening the debate, but said Liberal MPs will be allowed to vote "their conscience" rather than force them to toe the party line."Our position on reproductive choice, my position on reproductive choice is very, very clear. It has been for decades. The position is it's a person's right to choose." (CP)
Saskatoon-Humboldt MP Brad Trost tells Saskatchewan's ProLife Association in April 2011 that the federal government has decided to cut funding to the International Planned Parenthood Federation, a decision he says was influenced by anti-abortion supporters."I cannot tell you specifically how we used it, but those petitions were very, very useful and they were part of what we used to defund Planned Parenthood because it has been an absolute disgrace that that organization and several others like it have been receiving one penny of Canadian taxpayers' dollars," Trost said.Maurice Vellacott, a Conservative MP from Saskatoon-Wanuskewin, also calls for Planned Parenthood to be defunded.Vellacott says the controversy over the funding "exposed the lies and destructiveness of IPPF's agenda.""It exposes what this abortion giant is surreptitiously trying to achieve worldwide."International Cooperation Minister Bev Oda approves funding. (CP)
Conservative Winnipeg MP Rod Bruinooge proposes "Roxanne's Law" in 2010, a bill that would penalize anyone who "coerced" a woman into ending her pregnancy against her will."It's not just as simple as feeling pressured to get an abortion; there is a lot of discussion of sex-selection abortion these days, as well," Bruinooge told the Winnipeg Free Press. "It's part of the overall topic of intimidation that goes towards a pregnant woman."Bruinooge insisted the bill wasn't meant to force Parliament to wade into the debate banned by Harper, stating that nothing in his bill made it illegal to abort a fetus.But the Liberals and New Democrats saw it as a backdoor entry into the touchy topic."How is an abortion bill not an abortion bill?" said then-Liberal MP Anita Neville. "This certainly introduces discussion into the House of Commons and it is a rather sneaky way of doing it."Then-NDP leader Jack Layton echoed her concerns. "You have got to wonder what is really going on here."The bill was defeated in December of 2010, with 178 votes for and 97 against it. Harper and many Conservatives voted against it and 10 Liberals supported it. The NDP was unanimously against it. (Handout)
International Co-operation Minister Bev Oda discloses for the first time in April 2011 that Canada will not fund abortions in its G8 child and maternal health-care initiative for developing countries.Keith Martin, then-Liberal MP who had defected from the Tories years earlier, expressed outrage. "People here are perplexed and wondering why Canada is rolling back the clock and depriving women in developing countries from having the same rights to basic health care and access to abortion as women in Canada," he said.Then-NDP leader Jack Layton accused the Tories of putting Canada on side with former U.S. president George Bush, who reduced support for abortion-related aid."It's picking up the banner that George Bush used to carry, and I think that that's not something that would be supported by the majority of Canadians, that's for sure," Layton said.On June 25, Canada pledged $1.1 billion to a global initiative on maternal and child health for developing countries - a disproportionately high amount compared to other G8 countries. Canada did not allow for its share to be used in the funding of abortions. (CP)

Major League Baseball and Roku Strike a Deal to Stream Gamesby
The following item was contributed by Ronald Grover, BusinessWeek's Los Angeles bureau chief.
Major League Baseball's super-aggressive online service, which has been streaming "out of market" games to baseball-loving computer owners since 2002, is making the leap as well to cell phones and TV. Just a few weeks after announcing that it had created an "app" that would stream games from its MLB.tv service to users of Apple's iPhone and iPod touches, major league baseball has signed on with Roku, whose Roku digital video player delivers online content to television viewers.
"Delivering live and on-demand MLB games to the Roku player is huge for our customers who value great quality content and ease of use," says Anthony Wood, Roku's founder and CEO. Roku already delivers movies and TV show on demand, courtesy of Netflix and Amazon Video on Demand, in what is fast becoming one of the largest convergence plays between online content and TV viewing.
Under its deal with MLB.com, Roku users can pay $34.95 for the remainder of the current baseball season and get an unlimited number of games not being played within the local TV market in which they live. (The TV rights to those games are held by local baseball or cable channels and thus are excluded from viewing on a competing TV-centric outlet.) Where available, the games will be delivered in high definition, according to Roku.
A Roku player, which is $99, connects directly to most TV sets and uses a broadband Internet connection. A prompt for the MLB.tv service will show up on the TV set screen for subscribers of the service. Games up to seven days old are also available to be viewed on demand. MLB.tv currently has more than 350,000 subscribers.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
As Shane Victorino grounded out to give the Yankees their 27th World Championship, the 2009 season officially ended and the off-season began.
Players will sign with different teams, extensions will be inked, trades will be made and arbitration cases will be heard. Undoubtedly an exciting time for fans can become very stressful for the forgotten employees of Major League Organizations: minor leaguers.
Every addition to the major league team delays the ETA (estimated time of arrival) of a minor league prospect. There may not be another club in the majors this pertains to more than Boston.
Last year, Red Sox General Manager Theo Epstein inked Brad Penny and John Smoltz, bolstering an already crowded Sox rotation of Josh Beckett, Jon Lester, Daisuke Matsuzaka, and Tim Wakefield — all veterans that were all but guaranteed a spot in the rotation.
That left No. 1 prospect Clay Buccholz off the 25 man roster and in Pawtucket.
"Yeah it is tough," Buccholz said. "Especially the year before last I lived in Boston and was traveling back and forth to Pawtucket so it made it even that much harder. It's sometimes tough to swallow but you know you work for a certain goal and once you achieve that goal you know everything is worthwhile."
The Red Sox are one of the few teams that have nearly unlimited funds but also look to build from within. This means the club wants to use the talent its acquired through the draft but since its payroll is up over $100 million, there is no time for the young player to work the kinks out.
"If you're not ready to play and help the big team and win games they just don't call guys up and work their way in," former Red Sox catcher Kelly Shoppach said. "That's not how they do it over here. That can be difficult."
Shoppach spent five years with the Sox, working his way through each affiliation before getting to Pawtucket in 2004. But, with Jason Varitek and Doug Mirabelli entrenched as the Sox catchers, there was no spot for Shoppach to display his ability.
When there seems to be an opening, John Henry's checkbook can slam it shut.
David Murphy was selected 17th overall by the Red Sox in 2003. After two years in Boston's system, Murphy finished his 2005 campaign with Portland, batting .275 with 14 home runs and 75 RBI. He was also named Red Sox Minor League Defensive Player of the Year, committing only four errors in center field.
Conveniently for Murphy, or so it seemed, Johnny Damon bolted to New York, leaving a vacancy in center field. But, it wasn't filled by Murphy. The Sox opted to trade prospects, one of which was Shoppach, to Cleveland for Coco Crisp.
"I don't know if I never thought I would get an opportunity, but the fact that you don't know when it's going to happen can be frustrating," Murphy said. "There's no guarantee ever, but you see the way that things happen in other organizations and I think it's human to compare yourself to other players and to think what might have happened if I had got drafted by a different organization or where I would be."
In 2006, it seemed Murphy had chance of landing a gig in Boston when Trot Nixon signed with Cleveland, leaving a vacancy in right field. Murphy again put up solid numbers in 131 games for both Portland and Pawtucket. Murphy batted .269 with 40 doubles, 11 home runs and 69 RBI.
But, just like the year before, the Sox filled the position using their assets. This time the Boston broke the bank inking J.D. Drew to a five-year, $70 million deal.
"I think I realized that it was going to be in my best interest to get traded," Murphy said. "I realized how the outfield situation was and that Jacoby Ellsbury was right behind me and there were plenty of guys ahead of me so I knew going to another organization was probably going to be best for my career."
Murphy was traded at the deadline in 2007 with Kason Gabbard for Eric Gagne. At the time, many thought it cemented the Boston's spot in the World Series, but it is since viewed as one of Epstein's worst moves. Gagne was a colossal disappointment while Murphy has gone onto be a key contributor for the Rangers.
In 2008, Shoppach showed his true potential, hitting .261 while slugging 21 home runs. This past season, Cleveland showed its confidence in Shoppach as they traded Victor Martinez to the Red Sox.
Buccholz proved his wealth too. Down the stretch in 2009, he was one of the Boston's best pitchers, going 4-1 in the month of September with an ERA below three. He also earned a start in the postseason, pitching well in a 7-6 loss, allowing two runs in five innings.
"I learned some good things from it and there were a lot of lessons I had to go through to get to where I was at this year," Buccholz said. "It was fun and it was tough sometimes but I think it all pans out in the end."
For Buccholz, the end was to stay in Boston. But, with the Sox bringing in new free agents each year and with a payroll eclipsing the century mark, making it to Boston from the minors is anything but a God-given right.
"It's hard and it takes time," Shoppach said. "Just because you're in the organization doesn't mean you have the right to go to the big leagues. You've got to go through the battles like everybody else. You're just not granted an opportunity to go to the big leagues."

Hokitika Town by Charlotte Randall
Penguin $30
Charlotte Randall is an award-winning New Zealand author whose novels reflect someone utterly in love with the potential of language. She is a novelist who takes risks, who lets her imagination audaciously soar and, like Lloyd Jones and Elizabeth Knox, surprises you with each new book.
Hokitika Town, her seventh novel, is set in the gold rush of 1865 and is clearly the work of an author writing at the height of her powers.
A young boy is the magnetic centre of the novel. Halfie has ended up in Hokitika scrambling for coins and survival by washing dishes and doing errands. He is the epitome of goodness and views the adult world of drunkenness, double-crossing and lust through his innocent childhood filters.
The story is told in Halfie's voice. His patchy English gets richer and more creative as he absorbs the various voices of the characters he meets. Grammar is all askew, words are invented (vomit is "upthrowings"), he is not afraid to curse and there are pockets of superlative poetry.
Randall's audacious imagination (with the help of research, of course) attempts to see the world of gold diggers and bar girls through the eyes of an outsider. Halfie not only grapples with a new language but with new customs and puzzling sights. The sailing ship, for example, is all dressed up. Halfie thinks he could help heal Gertie far better than the incompetent doctor.
Three adults make a difference to Halfie: Violet, a "pantaloon girl", Ludovic, a drunken ex-digger, and Kaspar, a German stranger. Here lies the ticking heartbeat of the novel. The mutually beneficial relationship that Halfie forges with each is restorative. Yes, this is a world of deceit and vile behaviours, but Randall dares to place faith in trust and the ability of humans to do good.
The back-stories of the four key characters are fuzzy, but the questions that emerge are potent. Why did Halfie end up in Hokitika? Why is he so committed to preserving Violet's unborn baby? Why is the bond between Ludovic and Halfie so strong? Who is the true Ludovic?
This is a story of tenderness, empathy and resilience. Not all the questions are answered in tiny detail, but by the end of the book you have a far greater understanding of each character, of the world they inhabit and of their surprising origins.
What made this book stand out so much for me, beyond the terrific depiction of character, is Randall's understated approach to issues and emotions. This is a novel of belonging and not belonging. It navigates the vulnerable notion of home for the gold diggers and the foreigners. What can an uprooted person call home? How can they furnish that home?
Equally important, and with similar understatement, Randall explores the various ways a battered past shapes the vulnerable present.
Halfie asks Ludovic why he doesn't sleep in satin sheets and Ludovic explains there are other satin things in life: "There's satin mornings, laddie, and satin seas. There's satin skies and satin solitude." But, Ludovic adds, there is only so much satin to go around and you have to figure out how much to ask for.
Randall has gifted us a character that will endure, language that pirouettes like no other and a story that reminds us that our literature does not have to live on dark alone. Hokitika Town is an absolute treat.
Paula Green is an Auckland poet and children's author.

Brierley leaves planning, building department
City government Barton Brierley takes position in California, Steve Olson will serve as director in interim
After 16 years with the city of Newberg, Barton Brierley, planning and building director, is packing up and moving to California. Vacaville to be specific.
Brierley took a position as community development director with the city of Vacaville and served his last official day in Newberg on March 21. He begins work in Vacaville April 14.
It was just a really great opportunity for me and my family, he said of the new position. Vacavilles a wonderful community and it was just a really good opportunity and a chance to take on some new challenges.
Brierley said he found out about the position after being contacted by a recruiter a few months ago. He will have the same basic duties in the California town halfway between Sacramento and San Francisco, but with a different title.
Steve Olson, Newbergs associate planner, will take over Brierleys position in the interim while the city mounts a search for a permanent replacement.
Newbergs been a fabulous place and I really like the city, Brierley said. Ive been involved in the community a lot, Ive gotten a chance to talk with a lot of people and meet a lot of the community and make some great friends.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Tuesday morning officially marked the start of the second week of fall camp for the UAB football team. The Blazers practiced for just over two hours at the UAB Football Practice Facility.
After practice, offensive coordinator Richard Owens spoke with the media. Owens spoke on the offense's progression a week into camp.
"We continue to work, we continue to work hard," Owens stated. "Yesterday was a tough practice for us. The guys have fought and pushed through it. They are starting to get better. We are continuing to grow as a team."
The Blazers owned one of the top aerial attacks in Conference USA in 2012, ranking third in the conference behind Marshall and Houston with 308.8 yards per game through the air. This season, UAB will be looking to cement itself as one of the top offenses in the league.
"Our guys continue to work," Owens commented. "There seems to be a nice chemistry that is starting to form there. These guys take pride in it and they work at it. They are getting better."
The Green and Gold will be back on the field Wednesday morning in their first of two practice sessions.
Ticket information for 2013 home games can be found on www.uabsports.com or by calling the UAB ticket office at 205-975-8221. For the latest news on the UAB football team, as well as all Blazer sports, follow the UAB Athletics Twitter account: @UABathletics.

I've had a couple of female roommates...interestingly, both were lesbians...although not full fledged ones, I guess.
They both lied to me, but I'm glad they did.
Be very cool...and she'll start wearing less and less around your place until she's practically screaming 'take me, hold me, love me, no, not there.'
I am still sticking to the plan like Chase mentioned. I don't want to rush into things especially when we have a whole damn year to live with each other.

Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa inpects the workshop
The Sri Lanka Navy launched its 100th Arrow Boat at a gathering in
SLNS Gemunu in Welisara, on Thursday. Defence Secretary Gotabhaya
Rajapaksa was the chief guest. It was a proud moment for the Navy.
Creating water craft according to their own requirements is an
achievement to the Sri Lanka Navy. At a time where their service is
essential to protect the territorial integrity of the country this step
is significant.
Protecting the country from foreign invasions has been the prime duty
of the Naval forces.
With such an enormous responsibility on their shoulders sailors need
equipment which could cater to their needs.
It is rightly said by the Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa in
his address that the outer view does not demonstrate the unseen strength
and commitment of the sailors. "Having our own equipment at the right
time is the biggest achievement in the fight against terrorism," the
Defence Secretary said.
Lieutenant Commander Upali Jayathissa, the present Senior Project
Engineer of the inshore patrol craft construction said manufacture of
Arrow Boats is at its optimum.
"We are ready to adopt our services to meet the changes," he added.
"The officers and sailors are happy as they get new boats every month,"
he said.

Lieutenant Commander Samantha Samaranayake who was at the initial
stages of the project as the Senior Project Engineer said that they were
able to create a proto type arrow boat within a month and it was a
success. "We knew the commitment demanded from us as the project is
supported with public money," he added.
The team inspired by the dedication of the Navy Commander and the
Director General Engineering Rear Admiral D.N. Dharamaweera work long
hours to meet the demand of their colleagues.
With the escalation of terrorists' sea attacks the Navy bravely
changed its conventional stratergies to adopt new tactics. SLN was able
to halt the mass scale supply of weapons and ammunition to terrorists
via sea. They were able to destroy around ten large ships carrying
weapons for the LTTE, which were similar to floating store houses,
during 2006 -2007.
Defence Secretary distributed token commendation certificates among
twenty naval personnel who contributed to this gigantic task, following
the welcome speech of the Navy Commander Vice Admiral Wasantha
The Sri Lanka Navy hopes that this endeavour would pave the way to
construct medium and large ships in the near future.

In A Killing Time
Book by: Factxzrx
Status: Finished
Genre: Action and Adventure
Chapter1 (v.1) - In A Killing Time
She went to him for a feeling of relief, to solve her passions of discomfort. "Father, I am here but not as a civilian, I am here for mercy. I cannot go on any longer with this burden that I have been followed by from all of this time." "What is it my child. Please, feel free to tell me." "The killings that I was sent forth to do, along with all of the others from inmy past. I've killed and I've killed for the kill. There 's no meaning and no longer a purpose. I am a killer father. And this feeling has begun." "Child, this is a matter for you your self to justify. I am only a servant of god. I am not here to judge. What was now is. Only you can decide what will." She stepped out of the booth, hesitated for a moment, trying to decide if what she had just discussed was going to be having any effect on her.
"Wait, Miss wait. I'm Exile. I served with you" "So what do you want with me." "I have been sent out to kill you." She steps back, draws her pistol and look'sstraight dead on to the man trying to stand inher way from exiting the church. "Weight, I am not here to harm you. I need to talk with you. The people who hired me to kill you are the same people you done your last job for. They came to me." "The Bandits hired you to kill me. So what's the story, you rich or something." "No, I need you to join me. I have very important business to discuss." "You wanna hire me or something. Do you have any idea what or who you're up against." "Please, come with me and I'll explain."
She followed him on out of the church and out in to his car. He drives her out to a vacant hotel that was ready for them a few blocks away from the church. Inside he introduced her to a tape recorder then set ina tape. "I want you to listen to this, listen." The voice of the priest. The priest has been informing the government authorities about her encounters with his church. Then a voice went on describing her as a very cruel and cold hearted person; that of her neighbors and close friend. "Ok, I got the pitcher, So what's in it for you." "Me nothing, you everything, if you want to live." He told her as she stood there helpless. Having no thought or clue of giving what she has come to relies any care. Only the annoying of being disturbed from in her own disturbances. "So what is it that's so special about me?" "I don't want to be the one to tell you this. You're a princess. You were abandoning when you were born. Your father was a great warrior, son of a Gladiator. And your mother was served as royal royalty.""Ya so I already herd that fairy tail. And now I'm a killer and it's no longer a profession. I kill a killer." "Ya, me too, you don't see me crying over it. If you want to come with me your welcome. If not then I suggest you disappear and quick." "I'll join you, what's there to loose?" She said holding up one eye, willing to play along in her own sense of being amused by her new found friend. "I have a private jet awaiting us. We're going to your native land." "My native land, you call it a native land." "In the jet I'll explain it to ya." He tells her as he leads her on out of the hotel in comfort forleading the way. Along the wayhe had her covered up with a blanket in the back of his carfor out of harms way.
"Our chariot awaits us princess. So does this look like your typical jet? It's a time machine." "A time machine, Dose it go back or forth. Or do I have to stop my watch and reset it." "I'm sure you've heard of a time machine before." "Yes and I've also heard of tooth fairy's and the monsters." "Well this is the real thing." "So we are going where or should I say when." "Were going to the time of the dead and the bloody savage." "Since you put it that way lets go" Exile sets the time machine to the location and existence to the age of savage, were the world was ruled by kings and man was their source of power for energy. Savanna sat herself in the pilots seat next o him. She keeps a close eye on him as he hits all of his buttons. Keeping her hand locked in over her side arm. Waiting for ant strange move to blow his head off and keeping in mind that she could be in a hostage or kidnapped situation in any moment.
"I'm taking you to the days of barbarians, the gladiators. I'm entered in a bloody battle there. I hold a few victories. You are going to be my girlfriend. A warrior. I plan on conquering this sport and getting introduced to the queen; the mother of your mothers. Were we are going its the age of man, there's no electricity And the queen has just token her throne. If we survive long enough then we might get to meet your father's when he take's his place as champion of the battles, the gladiator." "So you're for real and were going to be there a wile. Oh well there wasn't much for me to pack anyway. And my name is Savanna."
The time machine begins to activate it's control light's and counts down. Exile looking at her, admiring her courage and studying her beauty. Noticing how beautiful she really is. The lights went out as the time machine shook and rocked in to a position from were it had last left off. Exile adjusting all the controls, sets the machine to a self orbit as he tells Savanna to go on out.
She step's out onto the land and realized that it wasn't a joke or a laughing matter. She stands out on the rocky cliff over looking its lake. She see's the villages lined out under the shades of the enormous castle. She experienced the marriages of stories that she has herd of her mother's and of the royalty within their family's history.
Exile jumps out and asks her if this was what she expected. "Does it feel like home? I know it seems like a fairy tail and it is difficult to imagine of being motherless all your life without any traces of your past. Some say you were put here to haunt the dead. When I heard the stories that our master would tell us about you I thought you were a ghost until I met you. The master he was a good man, A father to most. We will be going to my village, there well get some rest and see if we can get in to some competition in the morning. You are ready for some fights. These fights go to the death. We work our way up, until we get in to the arena were we will be gods." "And my existence here, its going to have an effect on my life." "This isn't our time, besides our time is done. I thought that you might like this. So I wanted to bring you along, besides you were starting to become a nervous wreck in the city. I was getting sick of it there too. Let's go follow my lead."

C-segment Jeep Compass growing in popularity in China.
DETROIT – Fiat is close to building Jeep vehicles in China for the market there, two senior executives tell reporters at the North American International Auto Show.
CEO Sergio Marchionne says the auto maker is "in the process of finalizing the agreement now. These are Jeeps that are designed to deal with the Chinese market. I can't build them here because I can't make them work economically."
Separately, Jeep-brand President and CEO Mike Manley says the auto maker is in talks with Chinese auto maker Guangzhou, which already has a partnership with Fiat.
"We've been talking to them for quite a long period of time from a potential partner perspective. They're certainly one of the best. Talks have progressed well," he says.
Manley says at least one Jeep vehicle always will be built in the U.S. – the Wrangler. "You can rule that one out" as a candidate for production in China, he says.
Marchionne echoes that sentiment, adding Grand Cherokee manufacturing will remain in the U.S. "There's a couple of pillar points in the Jeep brand that can never be moved out. One of them is Wrangler and the other one is the Grand Cherokee.
"Those things will continue to be as American as apple pie forever, despite what some people in the Republican Party felt," he says, referring to the 2012 presidential campaign's verbal scuffle over alleged plans to move Jeep production entirely to China.
Manley says the E-segment Grand Cherokee is doing well in the country, while the C- and D- sport/utility segments have the most potential for further growth. The Liberty's D-segment replacement is forthcoming, and the C-segment Compass now is on the market.
"If you look at what we do in China today, we have Wrangler, Grand Cherokee and Compass. They're doing phenomenally well, but all of the SUV segments in China have grown ahead of the industry growth, which is really phenomenal," Manley says.
"We're relatively small in the biggest market in the world," he says, noting Jeep has plans to "grow incrementally" in the country.
Top Guangzhou executives sat with Marchionne and other Chrysler executives during the unveiling of the new Grand Cherokee. But, Manley says, "I've nothing to announce today."
He does say Jeep is on target to deliver 800,000 vehicles worldwide in 2014. Last year, the brand delivered 701,626 units, up from its record 675,494 set in 1999.

Born to the impoverished family of a Soho, London fruitseller, Jessie Matthews displayed an interest in dancing from a very early age, and by the time she was 12 was making a living entertaining in her neighborhood. She worked in the chorus line of various musicals, and got small parts in some early silent films. Among those who took note of Matthews was Irving Berlin, who provided her with the song "I Want To Go Back To Michigan" for a London stage review. During the late '20s, she began working with the celebrated stage producer Charles B. Cochran, who engaged Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart to write songs for his revue One Dam Thing After Another -- they provided Matthews with the song "My Heart Stood Still," which became a major success for her. During 1930, Rodgers and Hart were engaged to write the stage musical Evergreen, which included the major hit "Dancing On the Ceiling." The show became a success for Matthews and her husband, Sonnie Hale, and was brought to the screen three years later by director Victor Saville under the title Evergreen, with a new plot, and Hale moved over the the role of the producer and Barry McKay (substituting for Fred Astaire, whose studio refused to let him do the film) as the romantic lead. Matthews suddenly found herself elevated to international screen stardom. The most successful British musical made before Oliver! in the '60s, Evergreen became the first English musical ever to open at Radio City Music Hall, and gave Matthews, with her graceful dancing and fluttery voice, a substantial following in the United States. Her follow-up films never matched Evergreen, however, and personal problems quickly overtook Matthews, who never managed to capitalize on her fame. Once hailed as "the female Fred Astaire, " there were several attempts to team them up on screen, all unsuccessful, and by the beginning of the '40s she had retired from the screen. She re-emerged in the late '50s in a small role in the MGM movie Tom Thumb, and he later became a star on British radio.

Branch has been created
First pass at a base JCR layer is now in the Branch. It extends DbContentService and create a new implementation of Storage that uses a LiteStorageUser that is unbound from XML DOM for create Resources.
This layer binds to the JCRService which stacks wht whole of CHS on JCR rather than on the DB
I have moved the Storage Layer out of the JCRContentService partially to discover where the internal hidden links to protected class members are in parent classes. There appear to be quite a number.
It also looks like the storage is split between the Storage layer and the DbContentService with direct access in DbContentService in a number of places especially with commits mid stream.
The other area of concern is the use of setting UUID on an item which should be immutable, as part othe move operations. It may be necessary to bind down to the move operation in the JCR as this will be far faster than serializing all the content into the JVM and then out again to perform the move, rather than just moving the node.
resolveUUID, getUUID, findUUID, findInternalUUID all appear to do the same thing. The first 3 are in the API. These are being routed to a single getUUID with simple semantics. The catch throwable in resolve never gets triggered unless the DB is down.
The layer is now working, but there are some issues that need sorting out.
1. CHS relies heavily on the trailing / in entity names to identify collections, JCR uses a node type and so the path separator is not significant. The use of this in CHS is variable as it also relies on the BaseContentCollectionEdit class and the IS_COLLECTION property. In some places there is code that uses all three of these, but will never execute certain paths since its impossible.
2. The Tool layer appears to be making repeated demands for the same entity over and over again in the same request cycle. For instance for each control on the UI (the name, the dropdown, the member count) it will individually ask all the way down to the storage layer to findCollection(id). Without caching of the ContentCollectionEdit in the storage layer, you will get this object created 10 or more time per request, when its really the same object. This is from the tool.
3. The caching layer in the thread local (inside BaseContentService) appears to re-create the object by copying it, which leaves the request cycle in a variable state. You might (and do) end up with 10 or more copies of a ContentCollectionEdit (or resource) in memory with only one of them in edit mode. This must lead to inconsistancies.
I am not intending to fix all these problems since it will mean major surgery on the Resources Tool which Jim is working on but I do have to work around them in the CHS - JCR layer.
SAK-10366 branch is now synchronized with Trunk content hosting and works. (somewhat, I havent tested everything)
This branch replaced the Database Storage layer in Content Hosting Service with a JCR/JSR-170 Storage layer.
To try it out (if you are feeling brave)
Check out a JCRService implementation
svn co https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib//tfd/trunk/jackrabbitservice
cd jackrabbitservice
mvn -Dmaven.tomcat.home=/Users/ieb/mytomcat clean install sakai:deploy
(The 1060 unit tests in the jackrabbit build may need a mysql db, I think they use Derby but I cant remember)
then Checkout
svn co https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/content/SAK-10366
mvn -Dmaven.tomcat.home=/Users/ieb/mytomcat clean install sakai:deploy
configure sakai.properties to make the JCRService use MySQL
startup tomcat
You should see lots of JCR messages fly past with no exceptions upto the Tomcat Started point.
there is a jcr-webdav installation at
login as admin admin
And the normal webdav and resources will also work. (I was last having some problems with Dublin Core meta data, reported file sizes and the mime type in jcr webdav)
I will continue working on this over the next 2 weeks.
I'm not quite sure where to find out if JSR 170 will make easy to implement an un-delete / soft delete capability. That would make a lot of people happy.
Soft delete,
JSR-170 has versioning of everything, so a soft delete, undelete should be relatively easy.
The branch is now merged into trunk.
In the process I have separated out the JCR dependencies from the main build so that you dont have to have a) JCR running in trunk/2.5.
In the base pom.xml for content there are 2 new projects content-impl-jrc/impl and content-impl-jrc/pack
impl builds the JCR extension jar that provides JCR storage and depends on the sakai jcr api.
pack is an alternative pack to the standard DB CHS pack. This pack contains both the DB CHS and the JCR CHS
For the moment, we will build the impl but not peform the pack so the JCR jar will not appear in the running Sakai.
As we migrate we will continue to build the DB CHS (and the JCR CHS jar) but will move to the jcr pack.
There is no need to change what is checked out, since build configuration is now all done with the pom.xml and not as a result of the code being present on disk.
[Bulk Change] This issue is currently Unresolved, however, it has a Fix Version set. In keeping with the newly added Target Version, Fix Versions should only be set for Resolved Issues, and only after it has been merged to that version specifically. The Fix Version is being reset to Unknown for this issue. Please use the Target Version to indicate when you plan to address this issue.

Possible to shave my nose into a straight bridge with no hump?
- Yes it is very possible to smooth your bridge without a hump and to straighten the bridge to make the face symmetrical and the nose not crooked. It is important that you choose your plastic surgeon carefully he should be board certified in plastic surgery or facial plastic surgery and experienced in rhinoplasty. Best wishes!

Have the cryo treated rotors on four cars now. Just can't warp them. I hate vibration while braking and these are the solution. It's about the same price as the OEMs that warp. Used posi quiet pads on all four cars and they are very grabby after a few stops. The posi quiets when cold don't grab well but when warmed up stop almost too well. The posi also includes all hardware including shims and are QUIET. I have tried another brand of cryo rotors that warped on my Odyssey minivan,not these.

Some academics are challenging the corporate principles of modern universities. By Alice Russell.
A new kind of tertiary learning has come to life in Melbourne under an old name, Akademos. That was what Plato called his school of philosophy but the story the new Akademos brings to mind is not so much ancient Greek as Old Testament: a small group of academics challenging the Goliath of the universities.
These academics come from a variety of backgrounds but share a view that the modern university has gone too far down the corporate, vocational, student-as-customer path.
What they offer instead is education that values learning for its own sake, in classes small enough for teachers to know their students well and where the emphasis will be on debate and discussion. It is also free: Akademos is registered as a co-operative and the only "fees" involved are the purchase of a $20 share (employed people are asked to pay $100).
Last Thursday night, in the meeting room behind the Hawthorn Library in Melbourne's eastern suburbs, 17 people of many ages and both sexes became the inaugural Akademos students in a postgraduate course about globalisation, sustainability and ecology.
"It's the first stage of, I think, quite an exciting move," said publicity officer Bill Webster, a retired Monash academic.
The students, who are taking on 13 three-and-a-half-hour sessions (plus extensive reading and a 5000-word essay), shared his enthusiasm.
Some, like Walter Maarse, welcomed the opportunity for in-depth discussion of a topic they already found fascinating. "I've been following this for 15 to 20 years," said Mr Maarse. "I want to get a more balanced view of the subject."
For others, the academic challenge is the attraction: Bridgid Soames, who did a politics degree 10 years ago, said it was a "really good bridge" back to study, and one that didn't mean risking thousands of dollars on a postgraduate course.
"It's a way that you can still be engaged with learning," said Jo Patten, who - like others - said she was disillusioned with the impersonal, uncritical style of universities and their emphasis on getting jobs.
The students won't have lectures or tutorials in the accepted sense: instead, there will be presentations followed by discussion, which the presenters participate in, but don't control.
"The intention in this course is to do things very differently from the universities," said course coordinator Frank Burden, an honorary associate professor in chemistry at Monash University and the Akademos treasurer. "Powerpoint slides and suchlike are banned. We're not going to deliver stuff electronically or remotely."
Joining Professor Burden as presenters in the course are a philosopher, a physicist and a globalisation expert, the last being Paul James, a professor at RMIT University who is also president of the Association for the Public University.
It's a "motley bunch of people", he said - and that kind of thing gives strength to the Akademos approach.
"They come from an interdisciplinary basis and that gives the kind of joy that the older form of university had, when people would teach in a more Renaissance manner across a range of areas."
They are all teaching without payment, as will any of the 40 or 50 academics closely involved with Akademos.
"It's supported by retired academics or academics who are overworked," said Professor James.
But any image this conjures up of fusty, past-it relics is false, he said: these people are "scholars who are either at the forefront of their careers or still engaged in scholarly work and therefore the stuff that's being taught is at the level of a university postgraduate degree".
Students will be marked only to pass or fail level, said Professor Burden. He's not expecting anyone to fail - "they're an enthusiastic group of adults" - but neither should they expect anything but the highest standards. "The people giving the course are into intellectual rigour."
So far, this is Akademos's only course, and if it's ever to achieve its objective of becoming an accredited co-operative university, it won't be any day soon.
Professor Burden said it would be 10 years or more down the track; Professor James is less optimistic.
"Given the way in which the current Government works, I can't see in the short or even medium term that they would accredit such a university because it's too radical for them," Professor James said.
"They are more likely to accredit something which charged international students lots of money."
Some middle ground might be achievable in conjunction with an established institution, he said. "In the foreseeable future, the best that Akademos could hope for would be running a whole series of courses which fundamentally change and support a degree structure within a mainstream university."
In the meantime, it's doing enough to give hope to academics struggling against the present system.
"In one sense it's a small and forlorn little group in the face of all the changes that are happening in contemporary university education," Professor James said. "But in another way it's a kind of indicative possibility."

"Nothing good to say since July, Kathleen? Really?"
That's part of a comment Jerry Nixon left on my blog. I need to get off my butt and give some explanation for my silence.
Life got in the way, then a break to figure out what I'm doing next.
Last July I took a job at Digital Folio. Startups are dynamic environments and this time the wind shifted such that my responsibilities were much different than I expected. This was not altogether bad. I really enjoyed leading a group and I was working with amazing folks. But it wasn't what I wanted to do so I left just before the first of the year. Since I was also supporting a long term client, I was working two jobs, maintaining a speaking schedule, and committed to working out and taking better care of myself. I often felt I didn't have time to breath.
But that changed in late December. It's nearly March. Where did those two months go?
I've made a significant lifestyle change. I've given up having a home. Home-free is probably a better phrase than homeless, because I am embracing this by choice and it's the culmination of a process that started two years ago. I sorted everything I owned to store, donate or keep with me. And then I went through the "keep with" stuff twice more the same way. Everything I now own is either in storage or fits in my car. And no, it's not a van but my lovely 37 mpg Hyundai Veloster.
I suppose there is a blog post inside me somewhere on what I've learned about stuff, but I don't think that processing is done.
I've always wanted to drive US 64 from end to end. I used to drive bits and pieces of it and thought they were the most beautiful pieces of highway. I wanted to keep going, so I did – well, at least half of it. The other half is scheduled for late June if all goes well. We've lost so much of the gracious old highways. It was nice to travel what is left of this one before the 4 lane expressways and semi-expressways eat all of it. My mother thinks I am silly and nostalgic (her home state Tennessee had done the most damage to US 64) because she says everyone other than me just wants to get where they are going. US 64 is probably a blog post too.
And where does a home-free person stay? Friends, family, house-sitting, hotels, monthly rentals, camping – although I'm waiting for summer for the camping part. At least that's what I think will happen. I've only been at this for a little while and I may quickly grow weary of it. My theory is that there are things I can bring that are different for everyone that will have people look forward to me coming back. I hope so.
It does mean I'm available for on-site coaching and possibly other work. That's a different blog post, but I want mid-term part time engagements where I can watch a team grow and help them meet technical, team and personal goals without disrupting ongoing projects or becoming dependent on my presence.
My tentative plans for the mid-term are to be in Colorado most of March, on the East Coast and traveling from there to Seattle in April, in Seattle during May, and spending June back in Colorado to see family, kayak and backpack. Next events are Wintergrass (Bellevue), the MVP Summit and DevConnections March 26-30. I'm speaking at the Northern Colorado .NET User Group March 12, Vermont .NET in Burlington April 9th, Great Lakes .NET User Group in Southfield, Michigan April 18th. I'm also trying to get in touch with the user group in Fargo, ND or in Illinois to see if I can set up a talk when I drive through April 23-26.
In addition to mentoring, I have an exciting project that I hope to be able to talk about next week and a boatload of blog posts in process on work my son and I have been doing looking for common themes between the many, many flavors of composition.

Outlook Before we all get too upset about the losses to the taxpayer – up to £650m at the prices agreed – on the sale of Northern Rock, it is worth remembering that only part of the bank nationalised three and a half years ago was sold yesterday. Virgin Money is buying Northern Rock, but not Northern Rock Asset Management, the so-called "bad bank" that will remain with the taxpayer for the foreseeable future – probably until around 2050, when the final mortgages in the business are due to be repaid.
We will not know for several decades yet, in other words, what the true loss to taxpayers has been from Rock.Indeed, it is still possible that we will turn a profit on the rescue.
Ironically, the bad bank, into which Bradford & Bingley's toxic loans have also been injected, has been a much better performer than "good Rock" over the past couple of years – booking profits at a time when the entity just sold was loss-making. Even more happily, its mortgage arrears rates have been coming down, suggesting that the loans it holds, including those infamous 125 per cent Together mortgages that Rock once shifted by the bucketload, are not quite as toxic as previously thought.
That may yet change, of course, but the bad bank has been quietly making profits for the taxpayer and repaying debt steadily. So much so that its £50bn mortgage book, set against an effective loan from the taxpayer of £22.5bn, produces enough to compensate us all for the loss crystallised by yesterday's sale of its other half.
If so, the promise made by Alistair Darling, the then-Chancellor, four years ago, that taxpayers would not in the end lose out from the nationalisation of Rock, will be kept. Not that Mr Darling had any choice but to take over the bank – whatever its shareholders tried and failed to claim subsequently (or, for that matter, whatever Virgin said when bidding too little for the whole of Northern Rock in 2008).
Against all that, we can only speculate about the returns to come. What we know for sure is that the taxpayer is today booking a loss from the Virgin sale. Naturally, that begs the question – posed, but not actually answered, by Labour's Ed Balls yesterday – of whether George Osborne has got the timing of this deal right.
Certainly, there is a natural suspicion that political motivations have played their part (just as they nearly did when Gordon Brown considered getting shot of Rock prior to the general election last year). Given that all the fiscal traffic has been one-way in recent months – heading towards missed borrowing targets, that is – the Chancellor will no doubt enjoy cashing the cheque, even if the windfall will make only a tiny dent in the deficit. Mr Osborne can be forgiven too for wanting to get on the front foot for once.
Would the Government have got a better price by biding its time? In truth, probably not, unless it was prepared to play the really long game. In this low-interest-rate environment, running a small retail banking business focused on UK savers and borrowers means coping with low margins and a tough competitive environment. In that context – not forgetting the prevailing economic headwinds – this is not a business that has been sold on the cheap.
Nor, moreover, is this a business that belongs in the public sector. Even those who make the case for using the public ownership of Lloyds and Royal Bank of Scotland to force those institutions to do more to support business accept that Northern Rock is too small to help with that. It is already run at arm's length from the Treasury and the link needs to be severed altogether.
One final thought. Selling Northern Rock may have been a business decision, but it should provide some emotional catharsis too. Amid a eurozone crisis that threatens, in extremis, to prompt another round of bank failures across Europe, there is something to be said for making a statement of intent. The sale of Northern Rock, at the very least, represents an advance in the battle to put the banking crisis behind us.

Hell really does have no fury like a woman scorned, especially when that scorned woman can pen a tell-all book by way of venting her anger at a former lover…
Which is exactly what The Only Way Is Essex star Lauren Goodger has done now that her former co-star and lover Mark Wright is dating Coronation Street's Michelle Keegan.
The Daily Mirror reports that in her book, Lauren has branded Mark a "serial love cheat" and claimed he's "controlling" adding that she made herself "a doormat" on whom Mark wiped his feet for over a decade.
Lauren wrote, "I made myself a doormat and he wiped his feet on me every single day."
The paper adds, "Lauren, 26, tells how Mark cheated while they were engaged and paid for her to have an abortion after blubbing: 'I can't have a baby with you right now.'
"She also reveals in an explosive new book how the Take Me Out: The Gossip host made jibes about her weight, banned her from clubbing with him and insisted on ordering for her in restaurants."
And of Mark's alleged cheating, Lauren goes on to say, "I genuinely thought if I let him get it all out of his system, then when we got married and had children, he would be faithful and a great father.
"How stupid is that? What a mug!"
She added, "Mark questioned my every move. The more time went on, the more I began to feel as though I should be grateful for being with him, and that's when I started to get insecure too.
"I don't think anyone thinks of Mark as the jealous or insecure person in our relationship… it's me who has been labelled as the obsessive one.
"It's simply not like that.
"He seemed to hate me going out with him. I know that sounds weird, but it became normal to me.
"He made me feel like it was OK for couples not to go out together. Little by little I was giving him more and more control over my life.
"Mark would comment on the way I looked as well as where I went. He didn't like me wearing low-cut tops or short skirts.
"Once he saw a skirt I'd bought and refused to let me wear it.
"I often suspected Mark would have liked me to have been slimmer.
"One day he said he thought we might be a more famous couple if we were both slim."
She continued, "I went from being quite a strong-minded person to being a pushover, agreeing to everything Mark said and wanted me to do.
"I hung on his every word like a complete idiot. We were constantly breaking up and getting back together."
On the subject of her pregnancy, Lauren said, "I went out to buy a test while Mark waited at my mum's house.
"We sat in the bathroom as two faint blue lines appeared. I was like, s***, this can't be happening.
"In a weird way I felt excited knowing I could be carrying Mark's baby even though I knew we weren't financially stable.
"Mark was crying his eyes out. He was devastated. He was saying to me, 'I can't wait to have a baby with you in the future, but not right now. It's not the right time for us'.
"My mum told me it had to be my decision and if I wanted to keep the baby, then that's what I should do and she would support me, but I was like, 'No, me and Mark aren't ready.'
"But I think deep down, if Mark had said, 'Keep it,' I would have. I wanted that baby."
As fans will know, Lauren later had a termination, and of that, she said, "I can remember that car journey like it was yesterday.
"The closer we got, the worse I felt about what I was about to do.
"Mark and I didn't speak that much on the journey. I think we both felt totally sh*t about what was happening."
Finally, of claims that she cheated on Mark, Lauren said, "I was never unfaithful to Mark, but because he believed some boy's word over mine, he ended it all."
You can of course read more in Lauren's book, Secrets of an Essex Girl, which is published by Hodder & Stoughton on February 14.
Here's a reminder of Lauren and Mark together…

I have an 04 STi and my buddy just bought a speed 6 AWD and about 274hp. I know that the speed 6 weighs more but why is that car so much slower than mine?
Kind of funny b/c all of my friends (who don't know **** about subaru's) thought that this would be a comparable track car but it is just so much slower.

Urbemis 2007 for Windows
Version 9.2.4 is Now Available
Software used to calculate air emissions from land use sources
URBEMIS 2007, version 9.2.4 is now available. The model has been rewritten in Microsoft .Net and offers many new features. The model's format has been revised to make it easier to use. When starting URBEMIS, seven steps are shown to guide the user from start to finish.
The model uses the California Air Resources Board's EMFAC2007 model for on-road vehicle emissions and the OFFROAD2007 model for off-road vehicle emissions. Two new pollutants have been added: PM2.5 and carbon dioxide. Construction phases can now be added and removed by the user, and phases can overlap. The Construction report for daily emissions is displayed as a series of 'time slices' that represent emissions associated with overlapping and non overlapping phases. The time slice that represents the maximum emissions for each pollutant is underlined for easy recognition. Area Source and Operational data entry forms have been redesigned for easier data input. Mitigation measure control efficiencies have also been updated.
For a list of URBEMIS 2007 improvements, please follow this link: URBEMIS 2007
To view the FAQ for this new model, please follow this link: FAQ URBEMIS v9.2.x
