The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
Regnery Publishing, the home of such conservative stalwarts as Swift Boat Veteran John O'Neill (who wrote Unfit for Command, which contained falsehoods about John Kerry) and author Jerome Corsi (who co-wrote Unfit for Command and wrote The Obama Nation, which contained falsehoods about Barack Obama) just emailed me to promote one of their newest releases. This time, it's The Politically Incorrect Guide to The Civil War, which, you guessed it, reveals how "conventional 'wisdom' about the Civil War, slavery, and states' rights has been hijacked by Northeast liberals." (Update: I just noticed that the book's cover, pictured to the right, advertises an "Afterword by Jefferson Davis.") Among the book's claims: "How the Confederate States of America might have helped the Allies win World War I sooner," and, of course, "How, if there had been no Civil War, the South would have abolished slavery peaceably."
I know it's probably just because I suffer from the "liberal self-hatred that vilifies America's greatest heroes," but I find the idea of the slave states voluntarily giving up their slaves to be really, really dumb. The Southern states seceded largely because they didn't want to be ruled by Lincoln, who had argued against expanding slavery into new territories. The Confederate constitution says, "No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed." But in case you don't believe me, I asked retired army Lt. Colonel Robert Mackey, author of The UnCivil War and bona fide Civil War geek. Dr. Mackey, a combat veteran who was Assistant Professor of Military History at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, says it's "a heaping pile of bulls**t" and offers up a few reasons why:
1. Slaves represented real property value. The South's biggest asset wasn't cotton, it was human beings. That is why the Southern economy collapsed after 1865—old Nathan Bedford Forrest himself said "I went into the war a millionaire and came out a pauper." Why? All his 'wealth' was in slaves.
2. The virtual serfdom of poor whites and blacks in the South after Reconstruction. The entire economic system, which only fell apart because of the Depression and the great migration of blacks to the North in WWI and WWII, was based on sharecropping. Sharecropping only worked because the "New South" replaced antebellum planters with bankers, etc. It was a form of slavery as well—just one in which "the owners" had no moral or ethical responsibility to care for the slave...since they had no 'property rights.'
3. There is zero evidence slavery would have naturally ended. There was no antebellum abolitionist movement in the South. On the contrary, the entire social system was set up to reinforce slavery.
Lastly, just imagine how easy it would have been for anti-labor industrialists to move factories South, where you not only did not have labor unions, but could contract for workers from their 'owners' at a set, low rate. It would have been horror, and the death of any hope of democracy in America.
So I hope that ridiculousness has been suitably debunked. But Civil War "political incorrectness" and Democratic presidential candidate bashing isn't all Regnery publishes. They also publish non-peer-reviewed "science" written by controversial authors. In 2003, Chris Mooney wrote in Mother Jones about John Lott, a Regnery author whose pro-gun social science came under fire:
Pressed by critics, [Lott] failed to produce evidence of the existence of a survey—which supposedly found that "98 percent of the time that people use guns defensively, they merely have to brandish a weapon to break off an attack"—that he claimed to have conducted in the second edition of "More Guns, Less Crime". Lott then made matters even worse by posing as a former student, "Mary Rosh," and using the alias to attack his critics and defend his work online.
Lott's pro-gun writing for Regnery must have endeared the company to other gun-toting types, because in February, Blackwater founder and CEO Erik Prince signed a book deal with the company. I look forward to the Regnery email promoting "Blackwater's Politically Incorrect Guide to the Iraq War," or whatever they end up calling it.
(Mother Jones has covered Regnery many times before. Last year, Debra Dickerson wrote about how some of the company's authors were suing their publisher for depriving them of royalties. In 2004, Bradford Plumer—now of The New Republic—interviewed Media Matters for America's David Brock on the subject of the "Republican Noise Machine." Regnery comes up.)

n the 1960s and '70s, Miss Hurst Shifter, LindaVaughn, a busty blond, was the pin-up queen of auto racing. Specifically, she represented Hurst Shifters, making every hotrodder in the country want to have the company's signature T-handle shifter grip in his or her car. A hallmark of the Hurst shifter was the muscle it could withstand, where burly guys could take out their aggression while slamming the shifter from one gear to the next, living out their hotrod fantasies. The combination of Miss Hurst Shifter as a poster girl, and the signature T-handle that could be manhandled, arguably tied into male psyche at its most primal levels, making Hurst Shifters a wildly-successful brand.
The Hurst Shifter legacy continues, where hotrodders not only still place Hurst shifters in their cars, but some power wheelchair users seek adding true shifter knobs to their power wheelchairs for a touch of hotrod coolness. However, many power wheelchair users don't realize that adding a shifter knob to a power wheelchair joystick can be both damaging and dangerous.
How Shifter Knobs are Harmful
Power wheelchair joystick construction is fairly universal, consisting of a joystick post that leads to a centering spring, then a ball of sorts that contacts directional input sensors. When you push the joystick in the direction that you wish, it compresses the spring, contacts sensors, and steers the power wheelchair, accordingly.
While power wheelchair joysticks are tested as reliable in the millions of cycles (movements), they are designed within specific leverage and force constraints. Joystick posts are commonly only 2" in height, and the rubber knob usually only adds 1" or less of additional height, with virtually no weight. These numbers are important because they maintain the correct leverage levels and weight on the joystick, reducing the likelihood of damaging the joystick with too much force or weight.
By contrast, adding a tall, heavy shifter knob radically changes the forces on the joystick. Adding height increases leverage, creating greater force on the entire joystick, and adding weight can compromise the spring, as well as increase directional forces. As a result, durability and safety can be compromised, where the extra leverage and weight can stress the components overall, and the added top-heaviness can inhibit the joystick from returning to center, its neutral position. The literal results are damaged sensors, commonly called "dead spots," where your joystick no longer responds in positions, as well as a joystick that won't return to center (and, if a joystick isn't centered when it's powered-up, an error code occurs and the power wheelchair won't drive).
The Correct Solution
For those needing an alternative to a typical "carrot" joystick knob, there are a myriad of specialty knobs available. These knobs are of an appropriate height, and super lightweight, ensuring that they don't compromise the joystick's structural integrity:
Joystick knob variations are listed on most power wheelchair order forms, as well as ordered through providers. If you're seeking to order a joystick knob variation online, manufactured by companies like Body Point, you need to know if your joystick's post is 3/16" or 1/4", as they vary by vintage and manufacturer.
Don't Get Behind the 8-Ball
Sure, putting an 8-Ball shifter knob on one's power wheelchair joystick may seem cool or cute; however, the toll that it can take isn't so much fun, diminishing reliability and safety. If you need an adaptive joystick knob, pick one made for the application, not a shifter knob. A specifically-designed joystick knob may not be as seemingly cool as a Hurst shifter or 8-ball, but it will get you to the races without harming your mobility.

AC - Gas flame is not going
I have Carrier AC unit, model# 58RAV115-20. For some reason, it has stopped heating.
Here is what is happening :
a) Inducer motor comes on
b) Ignitor warms up (I can see glowing ignitor)
c) After ignitor is glowing pretty good, I hear series of clicking sound(it starts from control board side and then it seems to end near gas control valve, I can't make out for sure)
d) And then ignitor now goes off with no gas flame going :(
e) After that I hear a faint click sound(like relay switch) and then (b)-(d) steps repeats (for ever)
Not sure why gas flame is not coming on after ignitor warm-up step. I know gas line is good because I have another AC unit sitting next to it and that one is working fine.
I have checked at the control board and see that red(R) and white(W) wires are at 24VAC. So I know thermostate is calling for heat.
I have also control board 'system check-out' by shorting TEST to Com/24v and it performs component test as spec'ed.
Any pointer you could provide to help debug/fix this problem is highly appreciated.
It seem that your control valve solenoid is stuck. try tapping on the side of your control valve when you here the click that send the signal to the control valve. Make sure all your limit are not tripped and you are getting supply of gas to the control valve. There is a screen just inside where the 1/2 npt threads into the control valve. Make your gas stop is not plugged up to. If there is no pressure on the control it will not open. The board sends a 24 vac to the control unit.
Thanks 'stovall1959' for the reply.
>>Make sure all your limit are not tripped
How do I check all limits ?
Thanks for your time/help.
Does anyone has any suggestion for this issue ? :eek:
Thanks for your time,
FRS1(Flame Rollout Switch) + FRS2 + LS are all closed (checked with multimeter)
I disconnected supply to gas control valve and was able to see 24VAC on it after HSI(Hot Surface Ignitor) cycle. So board seems to be sendin correct voltage. Again board is new (4 month old) and does not have any error signal on it's LED.
It seems to suggest gas control valve (probably solenoid) is bad. I tried to tap it but was of no avail.
Any suggestion how to conrifm it is the control valve unit before I go about getting it replaced ?
Kind of need a manometer to confirm if its the gas valve, other then test by replacement.
Spiders like to build webs in the burner orfices. So if one did. That would also cause the same problem. Dirty burner orfices can do the same thing. an LP is not as clean as nat gas. may want to check if they are dirty/plugged.
Since your hearing the gas valve click. Either a restriction, or the valve.
Valve could have a bad coil in it.
Today I disassembled valve/burner orific assembly and found that none of the orifices were blocked. I plan to replace the valve now.
Thanks 'beenthere' for your coment.
AC - Gas flame is going again
Just a followup post for closure.
I needed a manometer for debug and installation. One could buy it or make it (there are multiple sites on the web showing how to make it). It's a simple but very useful instrument. I decided to make it. I purchase 1/4'ODx1/8" Compression connector(with insert), $2.18 and clean 1/4"OD vinyl tubing($0.70) at near by home improvement store. You just put it together, add dyed water and you are all set.
I removed gas valve assemble along with from flexible connector to the burner orific assembly. I got OEM (carrier) replacement gas valve part number EF660015 (which is the replacement part for my original carrier gas valve part number EF32CW197A/White-Rodgers part number 36E24-202). Valve part cost including shipping $88.
I decided to use yellow gas tape and RectorSeal #5(1.75oz $3.26) pipe dope for my project. You will find different opinion on this topic i.e .how to seal the joint. Some people prefer gas tape only, other just pipe dope and some combination of both.
While I was waiting for part to arrive, I disassembled the assembly from flexible connector. After that I removed all the joints between connector and black pipes (I had 2 at the top adapter + one going from 1/2" pipe to the gas vale + one from gas valve to 1/2" pipe on which orifice sits). Cleaned all old dopes with rag and wire brush.
Once my part arrived, I assembled all the joints. To make a good joint seal, I put 2 round of yellow gas tape and applied the pipe dope. I used 10" pipe wrench to hold pipe/assemble in place and used 14" pipe wrench to tighten it. I let the assemble dope to cure a little overnight (it's not needed but I just wanted to do it). Since my furnace works out of LP fuel, I removed natural gas regulator spring (underneath brass screw on the valve) and replaced it with white LP spring. When you take out brass screw on the valve, you will see white plastic screw. Once you unscrew this plastic screw, you can reach the spring. This plastic screw is used to control manifold pressure. For LP you need ~10 turns on this plastic screw to get 10" w.c. LP pressure in the manifold.
Once I was happy with my assembly, I took it to my furnace and connected to the flexible gas line connector. After that I switch on LP and did leak test with soap water. It was a pleasure to find no leak. on the joints. Now it was time to check/adjust manifold pressure. I removed 1/8" plug from manifold pressure tap and connected the manometer in it's place. Switched on AC/furnace with call for heat. Furnace did normal sequence of operation and flame came ON :-). Waited for ~2 minutes and adjusted manifold pressure to ~10" w.c. (as needed by my furnace) with the method outline in above paragraph. It was beautiful moment to see everything working once again. Then I switched off the furnace, removed manometer and put 1/8" plug at the manifold pressure tap with little dope on it. After that I switched on the furnace once again and did leak check at manifold plug and the manifold black pipe to valve joint.
:thumbup: I would like to extend special thanks to "beenthere", "yuri" and "stovall1959" for their comment/help.
Have a great day ! :jester:
Your welcome. And congrats on fixing it.
Alls well that ends well. Congrats.:rockon:

Later this year you might find it harder to come by lower priced Intel-based PCs. Intel is phasing out production of three of their low-end desktop chipsets in favor of producing more higher-end Centrino chipsets. The change will occur late August, and the shortages could be felt soon after in the form of delays and lack of availability of chipsets for the PCs currently in production. The chipsets being phased out are the 910GL, 915GL, and 915PL. These chipsets are used by the Pentium 4 and Celeron D CPUs. Competing chipset makes SiS and Via are expected to pick up some of the slack, and some market share on the low-end is expected to shift to AMD.

Coming soon to your poetry slam
Our resident poet and, oh yeah, web manager Dale Hobson shared this link on our Facebook page today. It's a story from NPR about some of the more exciting poetry expected to be published in the coming year. What really caught my eye was the Frank Bidart volume, Metaphysical Dog: Poems. Probably very little to do with dogs in this new book from one of our country's most revered poets, but the dog got me.
Also reminded me of a longstanding favorite collection edited by Clarkson professor, poet, translator and occasional Readers & Writers co-host, Joe Duemer. It's called Dog Music and I still keep it on the shelf above my desk so I can open it from time to time.
As always, your suggestions encouraged and welcome. Which poets, particularly living poets, are among your favorites?
i write a pretty bad poem
but there is nothing i can do
it is hard to make bad good
and of course
there are the good poems
the words line up like a defensive end
on a play that no offensive tackle
is going to stop
but on the best days
i write a little gem
that is in my voice
and the sentiment comes across
like the temptationof magic brownies
sold 12 miles out of negril
after three or four red stripes
and before the desire is uncovered
with a ceiling fan circulating
the ocean breeze onto your torso
standing in the way of cool
walking to the printer that
exist here in the shaddows
of the end of a spring day
walking through the sunshine
that was hidden for a week
the temperatures are dropping
but still there is warm on my
as if you had laid your head
onto me to show affection
this day is the day that
all teachers use
to start counting
25 or so to go to the bliss
of no cares
the time when you are
in your garden
and if it is hot enough
you will work in your bra
and bees will dance around
the lace
sheets in the wind xiii
there are
clouds lost
in the blue sky
searching for
the horizon
floating like white
rubber ducks in
colbalt water at
the county fair
a gentle
laundry day breeze
nudges the clouds
in a sleepy ballet
and sailboats
reminiscent of clouds
languish like lusty lovers
on a beautifully
sunny day that
all my desire is
hung out to dry
sheets in the wind viii
with scientific design
i place my hands on
the evolution of your hips
pulling pantie elastic
through the cleats
trimming the sheets
fluffing the luff and heeling
to a comfortable slant
using geometry to find
your tangents
then finding a way
from point a to point maybe
and from maybe to honeycomb
using a compound fractions
to divide your resistance
using a slide ruler and
a slice of pi to calculate
your moral instability
a sweet little story how
first there was an ape
then ape crazy desire
and there i am to lumber
up and down your planks
like a missing link on a
chain of events
trout fishing xx
stringing up the reel
sliding the rod together
sorting the flies
and streamers
for the nibble
the action of your kiss
dreaming of tan lines
and bug spray
of rubbing lotion
on your back and
not stopping there
for the adrenaline
of the catch, the tension
and the release
of desire
trout fishing xv
the poems
have no limit
but i believe in
catch and release
though i harbor
of hooking one
that i roast over
a camp fire built
on a rock beach
telling stories
about second graders
with your laughter echoing
like a loon from one shore
to the other
the word
floats on the page
descending inside
thoughts that now
like the space between
the ringing of a bell
there is, but might not
be a deeper meaning
it is you who must
scrap the etching from
the page and dust the grains
that remain
into a pocket
you keep all your
building blocks for dreams
and affirm what the future
of though must be
when it is exploding from
the context of
the word

Although Andrew Brons does not officially take office as a MEP for the Yorkshire region until 17th July, he has already helped one of his constituents.
A mother and her son were facing eviction from their North Yorkshire council home because of rent arrears accrued after a period of domestic upheaval which led to an imbalance in the payment of her child support benefit. The lady was also being treated for depression because of her relationship break-up and this led to her being distracted from dealing with her growing financial difficulties.
She contacted her MP but received no assistance, so she asked Andrew Brons for help in keeping her home and regularising her child support payments.
Andrew wrote to the ladyís borough councillor and set out the background to the case. He finished his letter:
"I do not wish to intrude into matters that are not my concern. I am quite content for you to deal with the matter as her elected representative on the appropriate authority. However, I am not prepared to see her evicted without receiving any support."
The MEP also contacted the Child Support Agency and told them:
"My constituent makes child support payments to her former partner for the upkeep of her daughter and this is deducted from her income, yet she receives no payment from the father of her son for his upkeep. This imbalance has resulted in the lady concerned not having enough to live on, which led to her rent arrears and now imminent eviction."
Andrew's intervention got a result within days. The eviction notice was lifted and the Child Support Agency adjusted its payments accordingly.
"I am delighted to have been able to help," said Andrew. "I think this shows that an MEP can have some influence and authority in matters that are not essentially their remit."

3 weeks ago my doctor performed botox for forehead, juvederm for hollows and cheeks, artefill for nasolabial area, mesotherapy injection for under chin, he did all that immediately after ulthera treatment and in the same day. Yesterday I noticed droopy eyelid on the right side and a big bump on the right cheek. what do you think caused this and how long would it last? Thanks
Why Would I Have Droopy Eyelid After Juvederm & Botox Injections?
Doctor Answers 8
Upper lid with Juvederm and BOTOX
It is most likely a consequence of your BOTOX injections. You should go back to the physician who performed your injections and get evaluated. It is important to differentiate between a droopy lid and a relaxed brow, as a relaxed brow is more commonly seen. If you can open and close your lids equally on both sides, it is a relaxed brow. The nice thing about BOTOX is that it is temporary and will normalize in time.
Droopy eyelids from Botox and Juvederm
Unfortunately, a small percentage of patients get an eyelid droop after Botox injections.
Fristrating and vexing as it may be, it resolves after 2-3 months. The resilution can be sped up by using Apraclonidine (IOPIDINE) eyedrops.
The nodule on the cheek is most likely due to an uneven distribution of Juvederm.This can be corrected by massaging the area (the sooner after injection, the better). I have been able to disperse such persistent nodules by vibrating them gently.
Droopy lid or droopy brow
I agree with the others who said that you must distinguish between a droop in lid and one that can easily be confused but us actually a droop or lowering of the brow. I would also go back and see the person that did the injections and see what they say. As far as other bump goes, I would think that swelling would be resolved by three weeks so ask about that too. In the future, maybe you should not have so many things done in one day.

Drooping lid and bump on cheek after Botox and Juvederm
I agree with the other responding physicians that Botox is commonly seen to cause a dropped eyebrow if too many units are placed in the forehead. This is usually mistaken for a drooping eyelid, even by some experts. You also mentioned having a bump on your right cheek. Most likely this is a nodule from the Juvederm that was injected there, and if that is the case could easily be rectified with a little hyaluronidase injection.
Interestingly both these problems are on the same side. That may be just a coincidence, but there have been several studies showing asymmetric swelling after surgical and other minimally invasive procedures. Most often we see this in side sleepers. The dependent side usually has much more swelling. Perhaps you developed a lot of swelling after the Ulthera treatment or mesotherapy, and it migrated more to the right side of your face. Most patients find their swelling resolves by three weeks after procedures, but that all depends on the person and how much swelling was present immediately afterwards. You certainly had many procedures done at the same time.
These are some generalizations, but I always recommend these types of unwanted issues be discussed in person with the physician responsible for your treatment.
Yoash R. Enzer, MD
Botox and droopy eyelid
Your problem is most probably related to the Botox injections not the other procedures. It is a rare side effect of Botox and in some people can be relieved with Iodipine drops. Please return to your injector to be evaluated. The good and the bad about Botox is that the effects go away, so this will resolve as well!
Unwanted side effects with injections
Some people do experience unwanted side effects after these procedures. The reason for the droopy eyelid is usually when botox is injected above the brow. You might have a low brow or excess skin on the eyelid and once the brow muscle relaxes, it can drop a little causing the appearance of the droopy eyelid. That will wear off within 4 months time and you may want to tell you doctor to avoid the brow next time. The bump on the cheek could be an area where the filler was injected and it is normal to feel some lumps temporarily. This is not something to worry about as long as it is isn't visibly noticeable and it may be less obvious to the touch over the next few weeks. If it persists, see your doctor.
Eyelid ptosis after Botox
The eyelid dropping is most likely caused by the Botox injections to your forehead. If injected too close to your brow the Botox can affect the muscles that open and close your eyelids. If it is very noticeable, there are eye drops that your PS can prescribe to reverse this effect.

Suicide Prevention: Raising Awareness
According to the National Alliance of Mental Illness, one in four American families has a relative suffering from a mental illness, less than half of which receive treatment.
Laurie Augustyniak who works at Glove House in
"I knew she was depressed, I just didn't realize how depressed she was."
Laurie's daughter Kelly battled depression for years and was diagnosed with bipolar disorder at the age of 19. She struggle to stay on her medication, and two years ago Kelly's best friend alerted Mrs. Augustyniak of an alarming text message she had received from her daughter. In 2012 Laurie lost her daughter to suicide when she was just 21 years old.
"People don't realize, that depression, mental health issues, depression bipolar, they kill, just like cancer, or diabetes. She just felt like, this is it, I'm never going to be normal but, what's normal? Define normal, you know… so I think that people look at you differently, when you have a mental illness, and they look at you different when you have a suicide. I mean, people think that it's contagious."
A 2007 New York State Health Department Study reported that students in
Back in 2008, they threw a concert for youth struggling with mental health and saw an attendance of 300. This past weekend, they saw a turn out of 7-8,000 people. Founder Scott Lowmaster says he feels the change has been huge.
"The environment is changing from a culture of death to a culture of life where they actually can make life choices rather than choosing this permanent answer to a temporary problem."
Being aware of warning signs and open to discussion and treatment are some keys to preventing a loved one from taking their own life.
iMATTER Executive Director Dave King says it's important to be observant of those in your life and have honest conversations about feelings.
"We need to give ourselves permission to have compassion and just kind of pull the blinders off and notice those around us that are just struggling, if you keep your eyes open you'll notice it."

... we got to the hotel, the pool sure looked inviting. We decided to go for a quick dip before dinner, and it turned out that's all we did was a quick dip. Even though the outside temperature was in the upper 90's, the pool was indoors and unheated. The water was freezing cold! It was refreshing to at least get in the water, but once refreshed, we decided it was time to get dressed and go to dinner.

The Anti-Defamation League withdrew from participating in a national Jewish-Christian interfaith dialogue after church leaders asked Congress to reevaluate U.S. military aid to Israel.
The ADL in a statement called the request "a serious breach of trust by mainline Protestant Church leaders" participating in the annual interfaith meeting, which will be held on Oct. 22.
The religious leaders from the Lutheran, Methodist and United Church of Christ churches, and the National Council of Churches sent a letter to Congress members on Oct. 8 calling for an investigation into possible violations by Israel of the U.S. Foreign Assistance Act and the U.S. Arms Export Control Act. The violations would make Israel ineligible for U.S. military aid.
The letter also decried what it called "a troubling and consistent pattern of disregard by the government of Israel for U.S. policies that support a just and lasting peace," citing Israel's failure to halt settlement activity despite repeated U.S. government requests.
"In light of the failure of any of the church leaders to reach out to us, we have decided not to attend this interfaith meeting," said Abraham Foxman, ADL's national director. "The blatant lack of sensitivity by the Protestant dialogue partners we had been planning to meet with has seriously damaged the foundation for mutual respect, which is essential for meaningful interfaith dialogue.
"It is outrageous that mere days after the Iranian president repeated his call for Israel's elimination, these American Protestant leaders would launch a biased attack against the Jewish state by calling on Congress to investigate Israel's use of foreign aid. In its clear bias against Israel, it is striking that their letter fails to also call for an investigation of Palestinian use of U.S. foreign aid, thus once again placing the blame entirely on Israel."
Foxman called on other Jewish organizations to "understand the level of disrespect the American Jewish community is being shown here" and to also withdraw from the conference.

Statement by Ms Bokova, Director General of UNESCO at the side-event Children in Armed Conflict
Far too often armed conflict restricts children's access to education and health services, resulting in devastating impacts on their lives and their futures and violating their fundamental right to education and health care.
Statement by Mr. Martin Mogwanja, Deputy Executive Director, UNICEF at the side event Children and Armed Conflict
The UN's Children and Armed Conflict Agenda offers member states a unique opportunity to shape one of the most promising and actionable human rights agendas that derives its strength from a broad consensus among governments that children's rights must be protected.
Side-event Children and Armed Conflict - Statement by Eva Smets, Watchlist
First of all, I would like to thank Ambassador Wittig and the German mission for having organized this event, which is for us an excellent way to prepare for the public debate on July 12th on the protection of children in armed conflict in the Security Council and the possible adoption of a resolution.
We are at an important moment today: on the one hand, we can draw lessons from what we have done in the past years, it's not yet a success story but some good progress has been made; and on the other hand, we must increase our effectiveness. Her Royal Highness wondered what we can do, what action we can take. Let me add that this issue of children in armed conflict is another project on which Qatar and France share the same objective. We do that also on a number of other issues.
Statement by Mrs Béatrice Le Fraper of the Permanent Mission of France on the side-event Children and Armed Conflict
Attacks on schools and hospitals strike at the heart of International Humanitarian Law. Sadly, such attacks are something the ICRC sees firsthand in our field operations worldwide. Such attacks can be grave breaches of IHL – war crimes. It is too rare that those responsible are held accountable. It is rarer still that their victims of unlawful attacks benefit from reparations.

As a journalist, Chris Pritchard found he had to use subterfuge to travel to North Korea.
The phone call was unexpected. I'd forgotten about my application, several months earlier, for a North Korean visa.
I hadn't bothered concealing that I was a journalist — believing my direct application would be rejected anyway. Reporters aren't admitted, except with special approval.
Consequently, tours inevitably include reporters claiming other occupations. The North Koreans reportedly know this but comply because unwanted visitors carry foreign currency.
"Your visas are approved," a representative of the Korea International Travel Company, the Government's tourism agency, told me.
"Collect them in Beijing at the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) embassy."
I had nothing in writing, I realised on my way to China. But I was so keen to see North Korea that I ignored such concerns.
"Give your occupation as 'travel facilitator'," I was instructed.
I didn't ask what a "travel facilitator" is.
At the embassy, things went wrong. A stern-faced man returned empty-handed from a filing cabinet and told me: "Sorry, no visas."
I begged him to look once more.
He shuffled off reluctantly, returning with a broad smile and a file.
"Your visas are here," he grinned. "You'll enjoy the DPRK."
I took a cab to the Air Koryo office where, after visas were checked, an employee announced, "We have a discount offer — your fares are cheaper than you thought."
A 90-minute flight on an old Soviet jet included copies of the Pyongyang Times and several bottles of Ryongsong Beer. A band played martial tunes as we walked into Pyongyang's small terminal, because VIPs were on board.
Though we organised our own trip, it's far easier to let experts handle red tape. A few travel agents market Korea International Travel Company packages.
More than half of all Westerners go through Koryo Tours (+ 86 10 6416 7544), a Beijing-based British company.
Most groups are between eight and 18 people. Prices vary depending on length, itinerary and numbers.
The North Koreans insist on groups — but these can be "groups" of one. However, this is more expensive because all tourists are supplied with two government minders and a driver.
Tours will operate as scheduled this year, after a tourism ban following Kim Jong-il's death.
Koryo Tours also specialises in little-visited Turkmenistan.
Getting there: Korean Air flies direct from Auckland to Seoul. Fathom Asia has day tours from Seoul to Gaeseong.

Rush Limbaugh the mouth that spews bullshit is upset at fellow Republicans who have emerged as secret Socialists seeking to reduce our fair capitalist nation into a slum of poverty. Rick Perry attacked Mitt Romney, darling of Wall Street, for heading a takeover company that purchased companies, fired people, and walked away with millions. Rick put it this way, "the idea that you come in and destroy people's lives, the idea that you come in just to make a quick profit, tears these employees apart." In his view, this is "vulture capitalism."
Imagine blaming Wall Street for any problem when true conservatives know all problems were begun by Democrats or made worse by them. Rush tore into Rick for using the "language of leftists. This is the way Fidel Castro thinks." Then again, Castro created poverty, Wall Street under Republicans created poverty, maybe we finally understand that poverty is created by leftists and some disguise themselves as lovers of capitalism.

Hi all,
I'm planning on upgrading my brakes sometime early next year to cope with the extra power the supercharger will give me. It will include a handbrake overhaul as it doesn't seem as useful as it once did (cable has been tightened a few times). I'm planning on a E46 330 front setup (possibly using 4 piston Porsche calipers) and a E46 328 rear setup.
My question is though... What discs should I go for? I want something that will perform well on road and track, possibly grooved/drilled.
I've been looking in Brembos and ATE Super Powers so far (although can't find the ATEs for sale anymore?).
For now I will say budget will up to a £1000.
All help is appreciated. Thanks!

Or the procedure to make my nose bigger has no effect? And why? Thank you.
Will a Nose Implant Mess Up my Singing?
Doctor Answers 5
Effect of nasal implant on singing.
Thank you for your question. No, nasal implants will not affect your singing voice. The reason is that the surgery does not change the interior aspect of your nose. (the interior portion of your nose is your resonance chamber) The nasal implant sits on top of your current nasal frame so that while the outside of your nose looks larger, nothing has changed on the inside.
Nose implant should not alter singing voice
A nasal implant is placed outside of the nasal cavity and placed over the bridge of the nose and will have no effect whatsoever on the harmonics of the vocal cords or resonance of the voice.
Web reference: http://seattlefacial.com
Will a Nose Implant Mess Up my Singing?
Any Rhinoplasty carries the possibility of altering the nasal character of your voice and could definitely change how you sound. Any one aspect, of the Rhinoplasty, is not responsible it's the incisions and the post Rhinoplasty scar tissue in the area of the internal nasal valve that could cause the change.

NO press, NO meeting.
I'd think I'd meet in private, if I really thought it would help the victim.
NO press, NO way, however.....
I hope, that I'll never have to make that choice...
i got to go with no press no meeting
I applaud Mr. Moore's actions. :congrats: :congrats: :congrats:
I'd meet her in private. No press coverage, no publicity.
In Utah, there is nothing in state statute that prohibits permit holders from being in a bar with a concealed firearm. However, it is illegal to be intoxicated and in possession of a firearm. The level of intoxication that is considered illegal is held to the same standard as when driving a car. I guess it varies in every state.
Though, to be fair, the M-H doesn't take it that far. The article questions the Florida law that presumes any moving vehicle to be of lethal threat regardless of circumstances, as opposed to a law like New York's, which requires the vehicle to be a lethal danger to others before being seen as such (ie, mere movement isn't sufficient).
I would probably privately meet with the victim if (s)he requested it. I'd obviously want to know where they stood and whether there would be any legal or civil issues first. Wouldn't want to meet a person who was gonna sue me and thought I'd made a mistake saving their life! :blink:
In this case, it sounded like she wasn't the type to press charges or sue.
The media at large?? NEVER! :nono:
I would meet with the lady , with my lawyer , and in a private setting . This is more for my benifit than hers tho , I would like to know what sort of person i killed someone to protect . The press can deal with police reports , and whateaver else my lawyer says .. I have no intrest in any type interview, but will listen to the mouthpiece if he deems it necessairy for me to go public due to the politics of the local prossicuting office , and the incident ( not to raise racisim but i am white , and that fact can make a difference in the press unless countered )
Is it not possible to make a strong, positive statement on behalf of CCW by meeting with her?
I'm on the fence. I mean, we're not necessarily trained and practiced at making public statements or acting as public relations agents... There's the possibility of us putting our foot in our mouth.
On the subject of whether a cop should fire at an advancing vehicle:
I once had a letter to the editor published in the local paper on this very topic.
What I expressed was a bit of annoyance that it seemed that the cops (in this area) had recently taken to doing this quite a bit, and I challenged the efficacy of the practice.
What is the goal, when firing at a vehicle? To hit the driver? The car is a danger if the driver is trying to run someone (the cop or others) down. If the cop does hit the driver and incapacitate or kill him, the car does not cease to be a danger. It is still 4,000 lbs. of momentum, and now it is not being steered, so who knows what or who it will hit if the cop succeeds in hitting the driver.
In my letter, I said that it's not as though enough shots are going to make the car explode and dematerialize like what happens in video games when you get to a "boss" level. In the cases to which I was referring in my letter, cops had fired a lot of rounds, some of which could have endangered others in nearby buildings, etc., and for what goal? It seems as though many times cops are using the act of someone driving to run them down as an excuse to trigger their right to execute the driver. Even a deliberate act like someone shooting at another person does not give the victim the right to execute the perpetrator. In the cases I referenced, the car was passing by the cop. What justifies continuing to shoot at the driver? A desire to see the car go rolling away not under a driver's control?
I doubt I would want to meet with her. I would want to put it all behind me. I would however like to meet with the District Attourney that took a year to rule it a justifiable use of self defense on her behalf. That should not have taken so long.

I'm not the biggest Star Wars fan personally, but come on.. this is great!!
GadgetGuy's recommendation
What is this? No love for the little droid? Still, even though you might be dropping the remnants of your lunch under the head of this little guy, I suppose that it's still showing an amount of love to show him off in your home or office. Plus, stepping on his middle "foot" to open him up is a nice touch. No word on if he can also hide your lightsaber, but he'll take care of your trash just fine.

How could you not like this? It's an R2D2 TRASHCAN!

This stylish trash receptacle is imported from Japan and is an incredibly detailed replica of R2-D2. Step on R2's center "foot" and his dome swings wide to collect trash. Too cool!!

Isn't this what R2D2 was really made for? Everyone needs one of these!

This is the nerdiest trash can you will find. That's a challenge.

How many times have you heard a news anchor utter the words "They will be missed" after the passing of a celebrity? It's a phrase that gets thrown around without a lot of feeling, in my opinion. The world just lost one of the great comedic minds of the last 50 years in Harold Ramis. When you stop & consider what he brought us as a writer, producer, actor & director, it's mind-boggling. Whose resume' can boast this many legendary titles? Animal House, Caddyshack, Stripes, Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day, Analyze This, National Lampoon's Vacation, Meatballs, Back To School, As Good As It Gets & Knocked Up.
The list goes on, but it could easily be argued that he is responsible in some way for some of the greatest comedies ever. For people like me who decided to try to entertain people through comedy, his influence played a huge part. It's not just an overused cliche' for me. Harold Ramis will be sorely missed in a world that can use as much laughter as it can get.

Spring Has Sprung!
Welcome to Stop #5!
I love spring, and I love poetry, so of course I jumped at the opportunity to be a part of the "Spring Has Sprung" poetry blog hop! A HUGE thank you to Rebecca Reid, from Line Upon Line Learning (Stop #1), for organizing this fun, blogging opportunity. Really…I can't think of a better way to kick-off National Poetry Month than with poetry freebies. Can you?!
Poetry Month = Fluency Month
Poetry is the perfect ingredient for building fluency, so one way to celebrate National Poetry Month is by turning "Poetry Month" into "Fluency Month!"
Students love poetry and they love performing, so think about integrating activities that would combine the two with a fluency focus. The Performing Poetry strategy from ReadWriteThink is perfect for this! Each week, you can introduce a new poem for students to practice fluency with. After modeling and going over any new vocabulary, students can practice throughout the week and put on an end-of-the-week poetry performance! The article by ReadWriteThink suggests having a culminating poetry event such as a Poetry Parade, Poetry Day, Poetry Theatre, Poetry Cafe, or even a Poetry Night with parents!
Using iTalk to for Poetry Performing Practice
One way my students practice their poetry performance throughout the week is by recording their poetry reading on the iPads using a voice recording app. Audio recordings are powerful, as it allows students to hear themselves as another person would. I use the iTalk Recorder app which is offered for free through Apple. Students love using this app to record their voices and listen to the recording afterwards. It's very easy to use… for both teachers and students!
Students can save their recordings to compare before/after readings, reflect on their fluency, and set appropriate goals. The app also times the students, so it allows them to calculate a words per minute (wpm) rate of reading. Students can try to improve their wpm rate with each practice. (NOTE: You can save the recordings and use them as informal running records, too!)
If you don't have iPads in your classroom, consider using Audacity on your classroom desktop computers or laptops. It's free and easy to use, as well!
Poetry Theatre
I love the idea of Poetry Theatre as a form of "Poetry Performing." While many define "poetry theatre" as a general performance of poetry, I have a different definition in my classroom. I've developed a series of partner poems that are like Readers Theatre plays, where students have a specific part they play in the poem. Each part is a different perspective (also great for teaching point of view!). The partner perspective poems I create are have a back-and-forth structure, and students love changing their voices to sound like the two characters. These poems are great for fluency practice because students have to think about character voice and expression, while reading their lines with good pace, phrasing, and attention to punctuation. Just like with any poem-of-the-week, students can perform these in a culminating event to show off their fluency skills!
Are you interested in bringing "Poetry Theatre" or the "Performing Poetry" strategy into your classroom?
Blog Hop Freebie for Performing Poetry!
Scoop up my newest partner poetry packet for FREE below!
This poetry packet also contains comprehension activities to reinforce visualizing, character perspectives, story elements (see picture below), and answering text-based questions. (Supports CCLS!)
It's FREE for four days only, so hurry up and download your copy during this great blog hop event! 🙂
MsJordanReads Poetry Giveaway
To celebrate National Poetry Month, I'm giving away a copy of The Complete Partner Poetry Book to THREE lucky winners. This collection of partner perspective poems would be perfect for Performing Poetry. The collection includes 12 partner poems (including my newest poem above!).
If you have iPads in your classroom, you can open the PDF file with iBooks and the students can read it like an eBook! You'll need to get the files onto the iPads using email or Dropbox first, but after you click "Open With iBooks" it stays on the shelf until you delete it. I've created quite a library of digital poems and PDF files on iBooks this way, and students even create their own PDF "eBooks" and poems to read and share with the class!
Just like with any eBook in iBooks, students can highlight text and look up specific word definitions. Students can also use the highlighting feature of iBooks to go on phonics word hunts and find evidence in the text.
Enter For Your Chance to Win This Product!
(NOTE: This giveaway has ended!)
Winners will be chosen 4/1/14 (7:00 PM EST) and will be notified that evening.
Submit your entry by clicking the form below!
Congratulations to Janet Hegg, Stephanie Chambers, & Kamala Schuster!
You are the three winners! I emailed you the poetry product. 🙂

Thanks for stopping by!

Do you ever study the Bible outside of church?

Do you live a life pure of addictions?
Yes No
1 Thessalonians 5: 17 "Pray without ceasing." Shouldn't we at least give the same courtesy to
God we give to our pets?
2 Timothy 2;15 tells us "Study to show thyself approved." God honors those who honor his
Nehemiah 8:10 "for the joy of the LORD is your strength." The child of God has a source
for joy and peace from God.
Jesus said in Matthe w 5: 8, "Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God."
Ok I admit it, my spiritual life is not what it s hould be. But what does it matter if I
learn about God or not. Can't I just live my life the way I want? It's my life you know.
D. Me, myself, and I
C I am not a trinity

The Real Threat: Stigma & Discrimination
"Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything." George Bernard Shaw Stigma is broadly defined as a collection of adverse and unfair beliefs. The stigma around mental health most often leads to the inaccurate and hurtful objectification of people as dangerous and incompetent. The shame and isolation associated with stigma prevents people from seeking the help necessary to live healthy and full lives.* Stigma is fundamentally unjust and I wonder when society will start to view mental illness with the respect, the compassion and the dignity it deserves? Many people with a mental illness report that being judged is one of their greatest barriers to a complete...
One of the most difficult, harrowing, and frustrating aspects of living with a family member who has severe or chronic mental illness is often the inability of the loved one to acknowledge that they are struggling with a mental illness. Families may struggle for years or decades trying to convince their loved one to seek help or convince them that they in fact do need help. Families suffer immensely in silence and the toll can be devastating. There is little that is more emotionally taxing than seeing a loved one struggle with a severe and chronic mental illness and feeling helpless and incapable of giving them the care they need, and seeing them unable...
Caregiver's Bill Of Rights
I have the right: To take care of myself. This is not an act of selfishness. It will enable me to take better care of my loved one. I have the right: To seek help from others even though my loved one may object. I recognize the limits of my own endurance and strength. I have the right: To maintain facets of my own life that do not include the person I care for, just as I would if he or she were healthy. I know that I do everything that I reasonably can for this person, and I have the right to do some things for myself. I have the...

We had a great stay, the cold weather came in late Saturday and we were gone by 3pm on Saturday. It wasn't too cold on the Friday night. We are very happy with the venue it worked very well for us. The meals were great, the food was fresh, tasty and the quantities appropriate. The staff were friendly, and helpful. We used the main eating area for both meals and our group meetings. This was fine as we only needed 1/2 the available space for each, and no-one else was using the dinning area. In all we were very happy with everything from the weekend, and look forward to our next one in September.
Good morning Jade, Many thanks for a great weekend to you and your team a few weeks ago. We had 4 members on Saturday and other one turned up Sunday morning for 1/2 day. We spent quite a few hours on the dam exploring and enjoyed the hot showers and chit chat around the fire. What a great spot, the caretaker took the time to give me a walk around so we knew where everything was.....fantastic. Facilities were exceptional, well done to the camp staff. We will certainly book again. Mark Lawrie Chairman QBWASF Queensland Branch Water Activity Scout Fellowship Assistant Adventurous Activity Leader Benarrawa District
I LOVED the food it was amazing - yummy!!!! I loved the teamwork because it helped us to have good chats about how to workout problems. Imelda
You helped me learn how to build my skills in co-operation, agility, strength and helped me to build a logical mind. In the end I didn't want to go I had had so much fin and got used to the wonderful environment, I could have stayed another two weeks.
I am extremely grateful for my amazing experience at Camp QLD. I now have many inspiring memories that will benefit me in the future. I have achieved things that I never would have without camp. I have learnt to respect other peoples decision and not be selfish I would like to thank you form making this the best camp ever!

Ripoff Report

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I travelled from Australia to Europe. At Munich international airport I couldnt get on to the flight and I had to contact my travel agent at the office land line back in Sydney.
I had to rush and make call before the office closes back in Syd.
That was the reason I didnt have time to ask about the call cost.
I reached the travel agency voice message with prompt that office is closed and I hang up. I didnt even left the voice message.
On my return to Syd I have find out that call cost me (Australian $51.60).I have rang the phone company to find out they charge $16 connection fee and 5min minimum per call.When I asked for refund they offered me $20 refund which I refused because I dont think they should rip me off for the rest of the $30 either.
They dont deserve to have $1 of my money or others people money operating the way they do.Companys like that SHOULD BE CLOSED DOWN AND OUT OF THE OPERATION
and stop them from ripping-off the other travellers.
