All day, every day the Red Cross relays urgent messages to service members stationed anywhere in the world, even on ships at sea, at embassies and even remote locations. This can include good news like the birth of someone's child or information about the death or serious illness of an immediate family member.
Red Cross workers verify the information in the message and relay an accurate and complete description of the emergency to the member of the military.

No cost estimates were included with this provision of the settlement. By signing the document, both parties also agreed not to pursue future legal action against the other for wrongful termination, due process violations, civil rights violations, first amendment violations or defamation of character. "I'm convinced it's in the best interests of the city and citizens," Fraser said before casting the vote that made it unanimous. After signing the agreement, several council members agreed with Fraser that the settlement was best for the city. "This was the best way to keep everybody happy with no lawsuits," Arnold said. "It will be to the best interests of our city. We don't like the things that happened." Kraft said the council carefully weighed the cost of the settlement against the possibility of future lawsuits. "We had to consider all the alternatives, some of them being lawsuits which are so destructive," she said. "I think what we did tonight was something that we had to do. We need to get back together and get to work," she said. "We had worked at this for so many weeks,'and there just seemed to be no end to it. Sometimes you just have to put things to bed and start over." Seidel said he's glad the council is again united. "It's going to cost us some, but it could have been much worse," Seidel said. "I feel like we did the best we possibly could. We worked at it long and hard." Chapa said it's again time to focus on the city's future. "Some of us made mistakes, but we don't want to dwell on them. It's time to move on," Chapa said. "Under the circumstances, it was the best possible way, and it was a unanimous decision by the council. The two gentlemen agreed to step down in the best interests of the city, and it's time to get the city back on the right track." No definite plans or time frame have been set concerning the hiring of a permanent city manager, Chapa said. "At the current time, there is no time frame. (Interim City Manager) Hector Tamayo is our city manager, and he will be serving in that capacity. The entire council has confidence in his abilities. We don't plan to advertise any time soon." Asked if the council planned to delay hiring a permanent manager because of the settlement's costs, Chapa said that isn't a factor because the city has the necessary personnel. "Some people will say we'll miss Fwd Grohman, and some people will say that we're glad he's gone, but it's not time to go back and discuss that. We feel that we can get through with the personnel that we have, and the City Council is united on this issue," he said. The council plans to elect a new mayor during the regular Oct. 28 meeting. Council Member Bill Arnold looks over the agreement signed with former City Manager Paul Grohman. (Photo by Annelies Schlickenrieder) City veteran to consider top post By MARK WARNKEN Staff Writer Last week was special for interim New Braunfels City Manager Hector Tamayo. Not only did he answer his second call to lead the city administration, but Tamayo also celebrated his 20th anniversary as a city of New Braunfels employee. Tamayo, 59, has served as assistant city manager since 1977 under four city managers, most recently working for Paul Grohman, who resigned last Monday. He joined the city staff as admini- Tamayo strative assistant to the city manager on Oct. 19, 1971. Tamayo, a Lockhart nan ve who has called New Braunfels home since 1955, first served as interim city manager for about four months in 1988. That time, he not only added die duties of city manager to his assistant city manager's responsibilities, but he also served as finance director — during budget time. This time, he's glad he will wear only the two management hats and that he doesn't have to worry about budget planning for awhile. Plus, the city's sanitation department is much more well-equipped this lime around. Tamayo said he expects the qualified professionals undier him to again help the city through die transition period. "We do have an excellent stall and people who know their business and are willing and quite capable of per forming their duties," Tamayo said. Although he did apply for the city manager's position one time before, he's not yet sure whether he will seek the job permanently this time. "lf I do want to consider it, I will have to get some feedback to see how the council feels about it," Tamayo said, "lf I don't sec that they are favoring mc, I won't even bother them. If I see that they like what I'm doing and I can gel at least four votes, I would consider it." As far as what he plans to accomplish as interim city manager, he said he hasn't had much time to dunk about it during the past week, much of which was spent in meetings with department heads who had reported to Grohman. such as the police and fire departments, the parks department and the library. As assistant city manager, Tamayo supervised about 50 employees and was responsible for the sanitation department, service center, golf course and airport. Now he's supervising all 230 city employees. On Friday, the council voted to add 51,000 per month in salary and expense allowance during the interim to Tamayo's current 546,000 annual salary. But just how long this "interim" will be, Tamayo said he couldn't speculate. "lf I've learned one thing in 20 years, it's not to second-guess the council," he said. Before Tamayo joined the city staff, he retired with 20 years of admi-msiranvc and personnel expencncc in the Air Force and collected educational credits from different colleges near Sa# TAMAYO, Pag* 2ASettlement ends city controversy A 75 Cents Vol. 139, No. 239 By MARK WARNKEN Staff Writer The New Braunfels City Council on Friday approved a settlement with former City Manager Paul Grohman that includes an immediate 525,000 payment and IO $6,250 monthly payments. Council members publicly approved the severance settlement following a 45-minute executive session behind closed doors in the New Braunfels Municipal Building meeting room. The agreement behind Grohman's and Mayor James Goodbread's simultaneous resignations on Monday included the settlement, approved unanimously by Mayor Pro Tem Ramon Chapa Jr. and council members Clinton Brandt, Loraine Kraft, Rudy Seidel, Bill Arnold and Paul Fraser. Good bread did not anend the meeting. The city also agreed to pay monthly installments of $527.78 toward Grohman's retirement plan for up to 36 months or until Grohman begins to receive Texas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS) coverage from another municipality. This provision could cost the city a maximum of $19,000 more, which means that, at most, Grohman could receive $106,500 in severance pay and retirement benefits.dock gun attracts interest at show By ROBERT STEWART Staff Writer Austrian made Glock handguns attracted a lot of attention at the Texas Gun and Knife Association's show at the New Braunfels Civic Center Saturday. "They're really popular right now," said Betty S chi cr of Buzzard's Guns in Alvin. "Everybody has been coming up lo me and asking what I would take in trade. But what they have to offer I don't want." She added that the Glock was the "in" thing to have right now. "They are real popular with law enforcement," she said. The 9mm Glock sells for $579.95, but for the gun show, Schier was having a sale with any Glock going for $449. Also available at the Buzzard booth was a Glock 10mm and a Glock .45 caliber. The latter two weapons normally sell for $638.49 but were also $449 at the show. "There are 17 bullets in a clip and they make some that hold two extra," said Carl Schier, Betty's son. "There are some that stick out (the bottom) that hold 30 rounds." Betty Schier said that the 10mm version is "like getting two in one because you can use a regular load or an FBI load (for greater firepower)." People should not condemn the Glock because of the recent tragedy in Killeen, she said. A gunman killed 22 people at a cafeteria in Killeen last week using Gun enthusiasts turned out for the annual gun show at the Civic Center Saturday. (Photo by Robert Stewart) a Glock gun.

An extension to its popular Guardian series of DIY home surveillance products, Uniden has released its new app-enabled Smart Home Control range designed to help users secure their home environment quickly and easily. The unique Smart Home Control series offers a long range wireless solution with High Definition (HD) pan and tilt cameras for crisp, clear footage.
The series includes magnetic sensors for doors and windows, and indoor sirens, compatible with Uniden's existing range of AppCam indoor and weatherproof outdoor cameras. Passive infrared (PIR) motion sensors are a practical inclusion, detecting movement in 'blind spot' areas not covered by cameras like a driveway or backdoor. A gateway hub acts as the control room which sends and receives signals from the sensors, sirens and cameras. At the touch of a button, the key remote control can arm and disarm the home, and begin filming on cameras connected to the system.
Uniden's Guardian Home app for iOS and Android smartphones and tablets - used in conjunction with the Smart Home Control range - provides users with greater flexibility and control. The app enables homeowners to logon remotely to view footage in real-time, manoeuvre camera movements and even set off sirens to deter intruders. When sensors or sirens are triggered, users are notified via alerts sent to the Guardian Home app and their assigned e-mail address.
Users can set-up multiple scenarios via the Guardian Home app to suit their preferences. For instance, create automated settings to begin recording on cameras and set off sirens when unauthorised entry is detected from the magnetic sensors or PIR sensors. Developed especially for the Smart Home Control series long range is a benefit which is achieved by a hybrid transmissionii ensuring activity does not go unseen or unheard.

Home › Forums › General Forums › Winter Hiking › Winter Belay Pants: ID Denali v. MH Chugach
Mar 6, 2005 at 7:30 pm #1215946
Comparisons? Durability of shell fabric? Confirmed weights? Warmth?
I do prefer Polarguard Delta (the Chugach) to Primaloft (ID), but I have no experience w/ Mountain Hardware. Opinions appreciated!Mar 8, 2005 at 11:22 am #1336035
Alan DixonBPL Member
@alandixonLocale: Mid-Atlantic
I own the MH Chugah pants. I don't own the ID Denali Pants so I can't do an authoritative side by side comparison on the weights, and loft but I'll evaluate what I can…
I use the Chugach pants for winter climbing (not backpacking or snowshoeing) so they need to have some features and be durable. The Chugachs are full of of features. Fully separating side zippers so they can be put on without having to take off boots, skis or crampons. Reinforced fabric knees and seat, two zippered fleece lined side pockets (a feature the ID pants lack), elastic and Velcro adjustment on both waist and ankle hems. The also have a nice articulation to the knees. Finally they have a zippered fly that you can belay through.
The Chugachs are comparable in weight to the ID pants. My medium Chugachs weigh 20 oz and the listed weight for the ID pants is 19 oz. Since I don't own both I can't do a side by side loft/weight comparison.
I measure the Chugach's loft at about 0.8 to 0.9 inches, single layer. This is similar to ID's reported loft 0.8 in for 4 oz Primaloft on the Denalis. The Chugahs are quilted about every 4 to 5 inches to the shell fabric which will reduce their warmth and loft over un-quilted PG. The Denali pants are un-quilted so you will get the full loft of the Primaloft Sport Insulation. ID uses the Sport over the PL1 because it is more durable and stable and doesn't require the quilting that PL1 does.
One definite advantage for the Chugah pants are the seat and knee reinforcements that the Denali pants lack. Integral addresses this somewhat by using a 40 denier fabric that gives the pants some overall durability and improves the life of their DWR finish. Neither pants have a reinforced kick panel on the inside of the ankle. If using the pants in active per suits, unless you put gaiters over the pants this area is very prone to damage in climbing and other abusive activities.
I do agree that Polarguard has the edge over Primaloft for insulation but this is only one piece of the whole product performance issue. Quilting, how the garment is constructed and what features it has all play a role in the total performance of the garment. For instance a lightly or non-quilted Primaloft garment may well outperform a heavily quilted Polarguard garment.
BTW the new ID PLQ Pants weigh 10.0 oz and have .63 inches of loft. Not as durable or as featured as the Denali pants but almost as warm at ½ the weight.
Hope this helps,

I own the ID Denali pants, but not the MH pants.
I have used the Denali pants to warm up in at the end of the day or in the middle of the day while resting. For that purpose they are great, although heavy. I miss pockets, but I unzip the side zippers and put my hands in my shorts/pants pocket. Given Alan's description, my choice between the two would probably depend on how much abrasion resistance I need. From Alan's description the MH pants may be more suitable for more active wear.
Having said that, the latest picture of the ID pants on the web site appear to have added some additional reinforcements at the knee and the inside ankle area. It also appears the price is higher than what I paid for them.
Alan, where can I see the new ID pants online, or are they on sale somewhere?Mar 17, 2005 at 11:39 am #1336206
Thanks guys,
That's alot of info. I'm guessing that the ID pants are the higher warmth:wt ratio, which is what I'm looking for (static layer for winter trips). Contacted ID about the upgraded Denali pants w/ reinforcement patches. I'll post that info when I find out. Cheers.
-JasonMay 2, 2005 at 2:37 pm #1337030
Just received my ID Denali overpants today. They are still selling them w/out reinforcement patches on the instep and seat. While ID's website lists them at 19 oz, I popped my size Med's on a digi scale at my local shop and they came up 17.6, so I'm happy sans reinforcements. Haven't got a chance to use them yet, but workmanship and design seem very nice.
Now if only it were winter….

This always confused me, why dress as a woman? It always makes me anxious because I don't know to address Mutha Goose as a man or woman.
"Well, did you have fun with us? And when do I get a ride on the Brooklyn train?"
I chuckled, "I had fun." I bypassed everything else.
He or she started to talk but I ended the conversation and walked towards the exit. I opened the door and the cool breeze smashed against my skin. I felt the smoke that Byron blew out of his mouth against my neck. I'ma Put It On Her by Day 26 played through the speaker.
Byron smiled, "baby boy, you good?"
I watched him lick his lips and responded, "yeah, your party is lit. I'm lit."
"You should stay longer, I'll show you a good time."
"Naw, my baby needs me."
"Listen, you already said he was controlling. Let him be and go grab a beer."
"Naw Byron, I'm good."
I dabbed him and walked passed his boys. I felt my head starting to spin. I turned before I crossed the street.
"Goodnight boys. Ball tomorrow?" I yelled from the sidewalk. Dewayne came out the house wth my fitted cap on.
"Brooklyn, I was only playing when I said I was gonna steal your hat."
"Thanks, Diggy." I rubbed my temples.
"No, it's Dewayne."
"Sorry, I don't feel to well." I felt myself gettin dizzier.
Dewayne ran up to me and grabbed my arm. He supported me and helped me across the street. He rubbed my back as I saw Diggy walking up. I jumped but I couldn't read his facial expression.
Diggy grabbed my hand and put a bottle of water in it. Dewayne took a step back as Diggy knew exactly what to do for me. As soon as he touched me again, I felt my heart through my chest.
"Do you need help into the house?"
Diggy kindly turned to him, "nope, I got this. Thank you for helping my boyfriend."
Dewayne looked at me and said, "oh, you have a boyfriend?"
Then Diggy turned to me with confusion, "did you not have a boyfriend tonight?"
I quickly responded, "pause, I told you I was in a serious relationship. Do you remember? "
Dewayne quickly changed his mind, "oh you must be Diggy."
Diggy smirked and redirected the conversation, "Dewayne? Thank you for taking care of him."
Diggy pinched my underarm and I shot up. He opened the front door and I followed. The house was quiet and I was still very high. Diggy led me to our room. I couldn't read him. I didn't understand why he was being so quiet. He helped me undress and get into the shower. He let me rinse off all dirt from Byron's party and laid me in the bed.
"Baby, are you mad at me?" I whispered to him as he came out of the shower. I finished, "I felt like we haven't spoken since we got home. Are you mad cause I'm high?"
I felt the warm air escape from the bathroom as I had his undivided attention. He walked up to me with a crimson long t shirt and crawled onto the bed where I was tucked in at. He gently kissed my lips. His eyes were the perfect shape of almond from this angle. He dipped his back, so that I could see the shape of his ass from slightly behind his head.
"I'm glad you are enjoying your vacation. You work very hard and if you want to smoke and enjoy yourself, I support you."
I kissed him back, "thank you, Demetreus."

IN February 1993, a few weeks before Passover, an inspector from the State Agriculture Department's kosher law division entered Commack Kosher Meats & Caterers, in the Mayfair Shopping Center on Jericho Turnpike, and walked to the back of the store.
As Brian Yarmeisch, who owns the market with his brother, Jeffrey, remembers it, the inspector opened the freezer and poked at boxes containing prepackaged boneless turkey thighs: ''He said: 'There's a problem. Where's the label saying these have been soaked and salted?'''
According to one of the hundreds of rules that make up kashrut, the body of Jewish law that defines what is kosher and what is not, meat and poultry must be soaked in water, salted, then hung up to dry, to allow the blood to drain out. The state, in compliance with a 1915 law, sends out food inspectors to make sure that businesses that claim to keep kosher are in fact doing so.
Mr. Yarmeisch recalled going over to his desk and pulling an invoice from the slaughterhouse that sold him the turkey thighs. ''I showed him where it said 'soaked and salted,''' Mr. Yarmeisch said.Continue reading the main story
A week later, Mr. Yarmeisch received a letter from Albany saying the store had been fined $11,100 for selling mislabeled poultry. Articles about the fine were published in two Jewish newspapers.
''It killed our business,'' Mr. Yarmeisch said. ''In this business, your reputation is everything. Everything. We had a customer in here the next day, an older woman who lived across the street. She stood in the store crying that we sold nonkosher meat. Do you realize what that means?''
Business fell 70 percent, Mr. Yarmeisch said. The brothers contended that the state had singled them out for punishment because they were not working under Orthodox supervision. The problem was not that they didn't keep kosher, but that they didn't keep kosher the way the state interpreted the rules.
The Yarmeisch brothers, who are second-generation kosher butchers, said that their shop had been regularly inspected by Rabbi William Berman of the Commack Jewish Center, a Conservative synagogue, who found nothing wrong.
The Yarmeisch brothers said they had chosen Rabbi Berman because he was trusted in the surrounding community. ''Trust is everything in this business,'' Brian Yarmeisch said.
Rabbi Berman took exception to the state's overruling him on the question of what's kosher. ''I would never lend my name to a place whose standards would not satisfy any Jew,'' he said. ''If the state had a problem,'' he said, ''they should have come to me.''
There had been previous fines, before 1993, and when they faced another $11,100, the Yarmeisch brothers decided they wouldn't pay. They hired Robert Jay Dinerstein of Dinerstein & Lesser, a Commack law firm, fought the fine on First Amendment grounds.
The brothers won big. Last May, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit held that the state law excessively entangled religion and state and ''impermissibly advanced Orthodox Judaism.''
Eliot Spitzer, the state's attorney general, appealed to the United States Supreme Court, and on Feb. 25, nearly 10 years to the day after the inspector called at the Yarmeisch brothers' store, the court refused to hear the appeal, letting the lower court's decision stand. That decision effectively gave the brothers a victory on the scale of David versus Goliath.
The day after the Supreme Court's decision, Governor Pataki announced that he would propose new legislation that would base kosher compliance on consumer protection issues rather than religious definitions, although he did not specify how this would be accomplished.
Nationally, kosher food is a $4-billion-a-year industry, including processed foods and supermarket and restaurant sales. The cost of kosher compliance is difficult to estimate, since the four main supervisory agencies in the United States do not disclose revenues.
But Menachem Lubinsky, who will produce the Kosherfest trade show at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in October, said, ''If you are a butcher shop, you pay 5 percent of your revenues for supervision.''
''You can go shopping'' for lower rates, he added. ''The range is maybe 3 to 6 percent.''
While a small butcher shop like Commack Kosher Meats might just need a few hours of rabbinical supervision a week, many slaughterhouses, large butcher shops, major food producers and busy restaurateurs contract for full-time supervision.
At Gold Pure Foods in Hempstead, for example, a rabbi is on site full time. In addition to its own products, including its famous horseradish, Gold produces kosher foods for other labels. When that happens, Marc Gold, a vice president of the company, the client company usually dispatches its own rabbi.
The supervisory process is cordial, for the most part. ''There might be a disagreement over sugar, for example,'' Mr. Gold said. A visiting rabbi might object to the sugar the regular rabbi finds unobjectionable, he said, even though it is certified as kosher.
Mr. Gold explained the ensuing give-and-take like this: ''The rabbi says, 'This is no good.' We say this. They say that. If we can't do it at their price, we'll tell them. It becomes a pain in the neck.''
Very often, supervision is a competitive business, as Mr. Lubinsky suggested.
Mr. Yarmeisch said he had been approached by rabbis and Orthodox groups offering to provide supervision for about $600 a week. He turned them down.
He said he paid Rabbi Berman for his supervision in merchandise, not cash. As he put it, ''I take care of him when he comes into the store.''
That means, Mr. Yarmeisch said, that he gives Rabbi Berman a discount, but he would not name a percentage.
The cost of getting New York State to change its law has been borne entirely by the two brothers, Brian Yarmeisch said, but he would not disclose the cost of his legal bills.
''Rabbi Berman didn't help, no one helped,'' Mr. Yarmeisch said. And the process has been long and often lonely.
''In the courtroom last year there were so many government lawyers and also a lot of Orthodox people in long black coats,'' he said. ''For us, there was my lawyer, and his wife and sister, and me. Jeffrey stayed in the store. Someone had to keep it open.''Continue reading the main story

Title: Illogical
Author: AngelTalion
Disclaimer: Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or its fandom. I am not making any money off of this fiction. This story in no way represents canon.
Summary: Shikamaru has a theory about Neji.
WARNINGS: Yaoi; NO SEX; Drabble
A/N: Another little drabble that was running around in my head after reading some REBOOT fic and watching some old school Trek with the hubby.
"Neji is a Vulcan." Shikamaru announced to the sky he was looking up at. Kiba and Naruto looked at one another blinking and Choji began choking on his chips.
"What?" Naruto frowned screwing his face up.
"Yeah Shikamaru, what the hell are you talking about?" Kiba leaned over looking at the Nara's face obscuring his view of the fluffy white clouds.
"From that American show, the skinny guy with pointy ears and shiny make up?" Kiba and Naruto nodded in unison when the lazy genius turned to look at them. "He's called a Vulcan."
"No shit Sherlock, what the fuck are you talking about Neji's a Vulcan for?" Naruto wondered if Shikamaru hadn't taken a kick to the head from Lee recently.
Sighing exaggeratedly at having to explain himself, Shikamaru wished suddenly he'd kept his revelation to himself. "I was thinking." These words caused groans from each of the men around him but he continued. "He's tall, completely controlled, dark hair, pale skin and deadly in an unsuspecting sort of way."
"Ok but by that description Sasuke's a Vulcan too and trust me he bleeds red just like the rest of us." Naruto rolled his eyes and punched Kiba's shoulder when the brunette snickered.
"Oh yeah but what about his other fluids?" Kiba laughed then winced when he was hit even harder.
Naruto scowled. "Shut it you Pound Hound. At least I'm getting laid." The blond and dog nin were now glaring at one another. Shikamaru spoke louder to gain their attention.
"Sasuke loses his cool too easily. He's pretty much ruled by his emotions, Neji isn't. He's got that eerie sort of calm even when he's fighting. And Spock never gets laid. We ALL know Sasuke's getting it all the time cause you are a slut… and we've never heard even rumors about Neji so much as being interested in another person." He was obviously winning his friends over to his way of thinking just by the looks on their faces.
"I don't know Shikamaru, don't those Vulcan guys have pointy ears?" Choji frowned popping another chip into his mouth.
Sitting up Shikamaru pointed at Choji, "See that's the thing, have any of you ever SEEN Neji's ears?" He got blank stares and nodded. "Exactly. As a kid the bit that would have been pointy was hidden by that hair of his and NOW it completely covers his ears all the time."
"Wow. Neji's a Vulcan. That is cool." Naruto whispered slightly shocked.
Kiba shook his head in awe. "Man I bet he never expected anyone to figure it out but it explains all that stuff Hyuuga can do and his special palm techniques. Don't those guys have weird meld points and special hand grips that incapacitate another person?" When Shikamaru nodded he got another round of 'Wow's' from his friends.
Shikamaru was walking home after his afternoon with his friends when he felt himself pulled into an alley and slammed into a building wall. He couldn't help the fleeting thought that whoever had done this wasn't particularly smart. Who attacked a shadow manipulator in a shadowy alley? He let an annoyed sigh out but before he could say anything or perform his jutsu a mouth descended on his. It was hot, burning hot and sweet in a way he'd never experienced. He felt a hard body pressed tight into his and a very male arousal nestled against the flat of his stomach. When the kiss ended he blinked his eyes open and gasped. Milky white eyes looked down into his own.
"Your theory is completely illogical." Neji murmured.
Swallowing Shikamaru colored when he squeaked. "Why's that?"
"Vulcan's do not have white eyes and I have had sexual partners but am currently interested in someone so I have been abstaining." Neji responded looking over Shikamaru's placid face for signs of understanding.
"Oh. Yeah." It wasn't the smartest thing he could have said but he was having a hard time thinking because of all the blood that had traveled below his waist. Finally his brain caught up and his lips quirked. "Prove it."
"And how would I do that?" Neji raised a brow.
"You could show me your ears." Shikamaru's hands moved from where he hadn't realized he'd rested them to Neji's hair pushing the thick silky mane back and caressing the shell of the perfectly formed, human ears. Shika moaned when the Hyuuga surged forward and shivered.
"I keep them covered because they are sensitive." Neji informed the Nara. When Shikamaru nodded he was panting. "Do you need further proof to convince you of my humanity?"
"You've got more proof?" He looked up in surprise at Neji's words.
"I could take you back to my bed and prove my humanity if it were required." A devilish smirk formed on soft pink lips.
"Yeah, ok!" Shikamaru scrambled to follow when Neji moved away.
Neji gave him a sideways glance as they left the ally. "Though I do have a new grip I think you'd be interested in seeing in practice." The Hyuuga gave a self satisfied smirk as Shikamaru flushed a very attractive shade of pink.
PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK! :0) I loves it!

All, Instead of answering the question, I'm going to refer you to what I thought was an excellent article on XML and its uses. the article is in DB2 magazine, the winter quarter. It's online, so if you can't find the paper copy, surf to: http://www.db2mag.com/winter99/treat.shtml The article is by Harold Treat. I found two aspects of the article compelling: 1. Pretty good coverage of the disparate uses of XML. I think this will speak to Octav's request. 2. Enticing coverage of just what IBM has done to DB2 UDB to provide support for XML. I'm speaking here of the DB2 XML Extenders My take on XML uses is that there are no limitations, other than your own imagination and a bit of common sense. Now, if I could just get this parser to install ... :) -----Original Message----- From: Octav Chipara [mailto:email@example.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 16, 2000 4:58 PM To: email@example.com Subject: RE: USES Hi everyone, Guys I was wanting some valid situations in which I could use XML. This is want I had desired! I had read some books but they are quite fuzzy when it comes to name proper usage of XML. XML to do whatever they want. Everyone is too enthusiastic!

text: Dec 12 12:56 PM CT Email Print Comments9 By Todd Archer IRVING, Texas -- If you regularly come back to the thought that, 'Man, the Cowboys sure come up with some inventive ways to lose games,' you're right. Since 2005, I have come up with 13 head-scratching losses that seem to define this franchise. And that does not include the humiliating 44-6 defeat at Philadelphia to close the 2008 season, which knocked the Cowboys out of a playoff spot. Three of those losses have come this year. Three came last year. Two each in '09, '08 and '06, and the one that kicked it off came on Sept. 19, 2005 (against Washington), when the Triplets – Michael Irvin, Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith - were inducted into the Ring of Honor. It has been quite a roller-coaster ride, but without the fun part. Read more about the 13 crazy losses: http://espn.go.com/blog/dallas/cowboys/post/_/id/4688047/a-look-at-13-inventive-losses

During the 23 years of Saddam's rule, Ibrahim's fealty has served him and hundreds of thousands of other Iraqi Christians well. But as a U.S.-led war against Iraq looks increasingly likely, Ibrahim believes the Christians' luck might finally be running out, along with their leader's.
"Until now this has been a very good place to be a Christian," says Ibrahim, 50, a soft-spoken man with thick spectacles and a natty business suit.
His father opened the liquor store decades ago on Baghdad's Aqaba Square. "The government likes us because we don't cheat or lie."
As Christmas approaches, Iraq's 1 million Christians feel threatened. Saddam, for most of his career a moderate Muslim, is beginning to appeal to the country's growing number of devout Muslims. A U.S.-led war, the Christians here believe, could pit orthodox Islam against one of the Middle East's largest and oldest Christian communities.
With many involved in trade, Iraq's Christians are known for being trustworthy, Ibrahim says. Ibrahim and other Christians interviewed during two weeks in the capital say they believe a U.S.-led war would be seen by many Iraqis as a battle between the Christian and Muslim worlds. "People will think we are with the Americans," he says. Iraqi officials say there is ethnic harmony in the country. Ibrahim believes many Christians hesitate to mention tensions publicly, for fear of conflicting with official thinking on religion.
In fact, Christians in this country long known for its Western links and secular culture already have sensed a shift toward Islam. "Right now, Christians are afraid of the future, of what will happen. Most of the Christians are preparing to leave," Ibrahim says. Hundreds of thousands already have. From the moment the 1991 Gulf War ended, Christians from one of the world's most ancient communities began a stampede to the USA, Canada, Europe and Australia.
About 1 million of Iraq's 24 million people are Christian. An estimated 500,000 Christians live in central and southern Iraq. That's 50% fewer than the number that lived in that area a decade ago. About 500,000 live in northern Iraq's three provinces, which comprise a semi-autonomous territory governed by two Kurdish parties. The area, which is under U.N. protection, is patrolled by British and U.S. jets. Many of the Christians are Assyrian Catholics, known as Chaldeans here, similar to those in Syria and Lebanon. Their liturgy is in Aramaic, the language Jesus Christ is believed to have spoken.
A large number of Christians fled the economic crash caused when the United Nations imposed economic sanctions after the Gulf War. The sanctions, designed to prevent Iraq from rebuilding its military, blocked all normal imports and exports. Baghdad now has to barter a limited amount of oil for goods. Many Christians were businessmen and traders. They were used to taking vacations in Europe and driving new cars. Unlike many Iraqis, they had the money to emigrate or had relatives in the West to help with visas. Ibrahim's brother lives in Detroit. Others among his 11 siblings have scattered to Canada, Australia and Sweden.
The exodus of Christians from Iraq slowed by the mid-1990s. Those able to move already had left. Christians who stayed hoped the situation would improve. Having lived here since Biblical times, they say life in Iraq has been surprisingly secure since the Gulf War. Until now, they've seen few signs of prejudice. But they fear a U.S. military offensive could quickly lead Iraqis to become far more religious amid anti-American sentiment.
"I wouldn't choose to live in any other country in the Middle East," says Bob Shaya, 38. He runs a computer parts store in Baghdad's high-tech district with his brother Samir. "This is the best thing about living in Iraq. There is no differentiation between Christian and Muslim." The Shaya brothers have hung a cross next to the racks of software programs, which they copy and sell for $1.50 each. They say hanging a cross in a store in the neighboring Islamic republics of Iran and Saudi Arabia would be a risky move. "I don't even like going outside to nearby countries," says Samir Shaya, 40.
Iraq has until now been one of the most secular countries in the region. Saddam's Baath Party has a policy of secularism. Tariq Aziz, the deputy prime minister and one of the Iraqi leader's closest aides, is Christian. Christmas is an official holiday, although only Christians take the day off. Baghdad's art galleries openly exhibit nudes.
Liquor stores like the one run by Yonan Ibrahim have catered to Christians and moderate Muslims — among them, government officials buying for government functions — who don't follow Islam's ban on alcohol. Islamic extremism has been heavily restricted under Saddam, a Sunni Muslim who has always regarded his greatest threat as coming from the religious Shiite majority that has close ties to Iran.
Iran and Iraq fought a seven-year war during the 1980s that claimed 1 million lives. The West saw Baghdad as a buffer against the fundamentalist Islamic leadership that removed the pro-Western government of the shah in 1979. Saddam, in turn, saw Iraq's Christians as a counterbalance to any Shiite Muslim fervor. Because of their secular traditions, many Iraqis say they are baffled by the Bush administration's claims that al-Qaeda terrorists might receive help from Iraq.
But cracks in Iraq's moderate Islamic culture began surfacing a few years ago. Some Iraqis have turned to religion for relief from the poverty caused by the sanctions. Masterful at sensing the popular mood, Saddam has changed too. He banned alcohol from restaurants and cafes, which long gave Baghdad, a city of 5 million people, a buzzing nightlife. The government-controlled Iraqi television began broadcasting hours of clerics reading the Koran. Last year, a cleric went to the holy Muslim city of Mecca, Saudi Arabia, to perform a pilgrimage on behalf of the Iraqi president. And Saddam has spent tens of millions of dollars building several mammoth mosques in Baghdad. One is the largest in the world outside Mecca.
Christians say they sense that the shift toward Islam here has accelerated since the Sept. 11 attacks. They believe some Iraqis identified with the strong anti-American feeling. Others were swept up in a move to more radical Islam in the region. Ibrahim says his business has been pummeled as people have become more observant. "It's unbelievable, my business has gone down more than 50% since Sept. 11," he says. "Sometimes I can't pay the salaries of the workers."
Perhaps the greatest shock to Christians came in August. A 71-year-old Assyrian nun, Cecilia Moshi Hanna, was knifed to death and then decapitated in a botched robbery of church relics in Mosul, about 250 miles north of Baghdad. The city, which is known as Nineveh in the Bible, houses priceless Christian relics. Three men were publicly hanged in Mosul's main square for having carried out the murder, according to Ibrahim. "It was a way (for the government) to say that nobody must do this again," he says. Government officials would not confirm the hangings.
In an attempt to bring some Christmas cheer, a group of French missionaries traveled to Iraq last week with the bones of St. Theresa of Lisieux, a French saint best known as "the little flower of Jesus." She died from tuberculosis in 1897 at the age of 24. She was canonized for her devotion to teaching spirituality. Iraqis packed churches to see the box of bones lying on the altar.
In the Saint George Chaldean Church in New Baghdad, a relatively prosperous part of the city, about 500 people crowded into the pews for a special Mass for the bones last week. In a hall filled with incense smoke, they crossed themselves and chanted ancient Assyrian prayers.
For a brief moment, the community was at peace. In his private office, the parish priest admitted the church has been through rough times.
"Our parish has 2,500 families. But it is a lot smaller than it was 10 years ago," said Habib al-Nofaley, sitting at his desk in his long black robes. "Many are leaving for economic reasons." Whether they begin leaving for political reasons, too, will depend on what happens during the next critical months.
Ibrahim says many Christians believe they will be targeted if a U.S.-led war ousts Saddam, who has until now shielded them from discrimination.
Some fear a post-Saddam Iraq could bring a far less tolerant country toward Christians if anti-American feelings run high. "Our government likes us, and they protect us," he says. "But if something happens, we don't know what it will be like. We are really afraid."

Point of Rocks (Kansas)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coordinates: 37°06′14″N 101°56′20″W / 37.103912°N 101.938780°W Point of Rocks, in Morton County, Kansas, was one of three landmarks by the same name on the Santa Fe Trail. This one was on the Cimarron cutoff. It is now part of Cimarron National Grassland.
Point of Rocks has been an important landmark for travellers to this region of Kansas. It signifies the closeness of springs and thus water. Many springs are known to exist in the region of the Cimarron River near Point of Rocks. Because of this, Point of Rocks was an important landmark for travelers heading west on the Cimarron Cutoff and for modern day ranchers. Point of Rocks is the 3rd Highest Point in the state of Kansas with the elevation at its summit being 3,540 feet (1,080 m).

Nightclub Fabric has been saved from the threat of closure after bosses agreed to hire seven £300-a-night sniffer dogs to check clubbers for drugs.
Top DJs including Annie Mac, Chemical Brothers and Groove Armada joined a last-minute campaign to save the Farringdon venue after the Standard revealed it faced losing its licence after four drug-related deaths in three years.
It will will now become the first club in London to have drug dogs regularly on patrol. Each dog and handler will cost the club £300 for a four-hour shift.
The club will also have to introduce ID checks on all clubbers, improve CCTV and increase drug searches at the door as part of a package of conditions.
Paddy Whur, the club's solicitor, said: "They will need seven dogs per night because they can only work for a certain number of hours.
"The vast majority of private sector dog providers are not trained to the level that police dogs are. So it's been difficult finding one to meet the criteria police want."
Chief Inspector Ian Howells said: "The relationship between the club and police has been good. There's a good level of support.
"With the two recent deaths we have sought to engage to improve the security and search regime to mitigate further risks."
Before the meeting, the club released a statement underlining its "zero tolerance" policy towards drug taking.
A grey haired clubber, in his late thirties, said he had been to the club "200 times in 15 years" and only once been offered drugs.
He added: "I take exception to ID scans. As a law abiding clubber, having your data put on record just because you choose to go clubbing seems like a gross invasion of privacy."
More than 30,000 people signed a Change.org petition in a show of support to Britain's biggest club.
DJ Annie Mac said: "Fabric is one of London nightlife's most important assets."
Club founders Cameron Leslie and Keith Reilly say they will fight the decision.
He told the Standard: "We'll be appealing. We need to see their written reasons but we fundamentally disagree on a number of key points."
Mr Leslie told the meeting the club had struggled to find a sniffer dog company that would fit the bill and had reservations about the ID scanner.
He added: "We are on the same page in lots of ways, we just have fundamental differences on how to operate that."
Mr Reilly said: "In 15 years we have had six million people come through the doors and sadly there have been four deaths.
"We do everything we can to stop people taking drugs in the club. What's happened recently is this country is awash with drugs.
"There's been a large batch of MDMA that's got more powerful and has caught the kids out."
The judgement means Fabric will continue to operate as normal, with the added conditions attached.Reuse content

Literary Triathlon
Literary Triathlon: Meet the winner
We talk to Nisha Coleman, the winner of the Literary Triathlon, about her greatest challenge in the competition and the one race we've all won.
1. Tell us about yourself.
I'm 31 and I live in Montreal. I subsist on a patchwork of activities. I translate. I transcribe focus groups. I'm also a violinist so I've been busking this summer with my good friend who is a cellist. This has led to some pretty interesting gigs. I'm happiest when I'm writing or playing music.
2. What do you usually write?
I write fiction but I'm currently on a nonfiction kick. For the last long while I've been compiling my experiences living as a street musician in Paris. I've also recently begun the art of blogging, which is a good way to keep a steady writing practise as well as acquire readership.
3. How did you learn about the Canada Writes Literary Triathlon?
I stop by the Canada Writes website frequently. It's a great resource and there always seems to be something interesting going on.
4. Which genre was the biggest challenge for you to complete in the triathlon?
Definitely poetry. I've only ever written a handful of poems. Occasionally a situation comes up that I feel can only be expressed through poetry, but it's so rare that I tend to shy away from poetry and, most often, fear it.
5. Which genre came to you the most easily?
Nonfiction. The idea for The Great Race came to me right away and I could imagine it so vividly that the sequence played out on paper with relative ease.
6. The subject matter you chose for the three categories was diverse—ranging from a personal relationship to a Kenyan athlete to...well...a swimming sperm. How did these topics come to you?
I was on the running team in high school and while the races were gruelling, I realize now that that first race, The Great Race, was the only one that ever really mattered. It's so dramatic when you think about it. Everyone (with rare exceptions) was once the fastest sperm. It's a real confidence booster.
The idea for the Kenyan sprinter came from watching the Olympic opening ceremonies and seeing certain African countries enter the stadium with only a handful of athletes. It was such a stark contrast to the wealthier western countries and a heavy reminder that the Olympics isn't only about athleticism. This inspired the idea of a runner from a poor country being offered monetary support if he represents a brand and a country with which he doesn't identify.
The poem came after much strife. The theme was vast and in the end I decided to write about people I've known who blast through life at breakneck speeds. When you love someone like that, you sometimes have to choose whether to hang on for the ride or watch them go. Both can be painful.
7. If you could magically become an Olympic athlete, which sport would you most want to compete in?
I think gymnastics would be just incredible. Twisting through the air at such speeds, with such precision, and with the knowledge that a simple mistake could cost you your life. I'm such a masochist, though, I would probably end up a marathon runner. And I'd perish en route.
8. What's the first thing you plan to do with your iPod Touch?
Well, I have an energetic dog who requires several hours of walking a day so I plan to fill it with podcasts and audio books. I've come to realize that the only way I'll be able to succeed in life is if I begin a strict multitasking regimen.
9. Olympic gold medallists hear their national anthem on the podium. What song would you choose as your anthem for your Literary Triathlon victory?
That's tough. After much deliberation, I'd have to go with the first Aria from Bach's Goldberg Variations. The Glenn Gould 1955 version. I love hearing him shift on his stool and hum under his breath and it's a perfect piece of music. I listen to the Goldberg Variations often when writing and really no one plays it better than good old Gould.

Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, Philadelphia, PA
SESSION TYPE: Infectious Disease Cases II
PRESENTED ON: Tuesday, October 23, 2012 at 11:15 AM - 12:30 PM
INTRODUCTION: Patients can develop clinical or radiological worsening of pre-existing tuberculous lesion or develop new lesions during anti- tuberculosis therapy (ATT). Such a paradoxical response is well reported in HIV patients. We report a case of paradoxical response in a non-HIV patient during therapy for pulmonary tuberculosis
CASE PRESENTATION: A 68 year old Vietnamese female presented with a 2 month history of low grade fever, night sweats, pleuritic chest pain, dry cough and progressive dyspnea. Past history included asthma, a positive tuberculin skin test since 2001. She denied exposure to active TB patients or contacts; no recent travel abroad. She emigrated to US (1996) and last visited Vietnam in 2007. On examination she is afebrile, with decreased air entry in right anterior chest. Her blood counts, metabolic panel and office spirometry were normal. HIV was negative. A computed Tomogram (CT) of chest showed a right upper lobe cavity with surrounding consolidation. A bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid showed neutrophilia (N 64%), smear negative for acid fast bacilli (AFB), fungi and malignant cells. She was treated for pulmonary tuberculosis due to high clinical probability pending cultures, which subsequently grew pan susceptible mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). she remained symptomatic (chest pain , dry cough) despite therapy. Repeat imaging at 1 and 2 month intervals showed new subpleural pulmonary nodules with resolution of the cavitary lesion. Multiple CT guided biopsies of these nodules showed pneumonitis and did not grow MTB A right lower lobe wedge resection inclusive of nodules confirmed granulomatous inflammation, fibrosis and organizing pneumonia with cytology and cultures negative for MTB. She was continued on ATT with a regimen change and clinically improved.
DISCUSSION: A diagnosis of paradoxical response warrants exclusion of secondary infection, treatment failure (drug resistance, poor compliance) and drug reaction. Paradoxical response has been reported more often in extra-pulmonary disease( CNS) with median onset time of 60 days. Risk factors include anemia, hypoalbuminemia, lymphopenia, greater % increase in lymphocyte count and a low body mass index (BMI) Our patient had low BMI (17.5) as a risk factor; all other causes of worsening infiltrates were excluded. A complete recovery was noted to occur in 78% of cases
CONCLUSIONS: A clinical or radiological worsening during Tb therapy occurs in 6-30 % cases.A Paradoxical response should be considered in the differential diagnosis of worsening infiltrates during TB therapy in HIV negative patients after excluding other causes.

Slutsker v Haron Investments Ltd [2013] EWCA Civ 430: Considering community property regimes when transferring property into trust - .PDF file.
In the English case of Slutsker v Haron Investments Ltd [2013] EWCA Civ 430, the Court of Appeal considered the way in which the matrimonial property regime in Russia would be recognised in respect of English property held in a Cayman law trust.
Mr and Mrs Slutsker were two Russian individuals who had been married in Moscow. Mrs Slutsker wanted their son to go to school in England and as such looked into buying a house in which she and her son could live. The intention was for the house to be held in a trust for the ultimate benefit of the son and any other children of the marriage. A suitable house was found and transferred into the name of a nominee, who held on bare trust initially for Mrs Slutsker and subsequently for the trustee of a Cayman law trust, of which Mr and Mrs Slutsker, her present and future children, Mrs Slutsker's mother and father, Mr Slutsker's mother and father and a charity were beneficiaries.
The purchase price for the property had been paid into the solicitor's client account from a bank account belonging to Mrs Slutsker but constituted matrimonial property under Russian law (meaning it belonged to Mr and Mrs Slutsker in equal shares)…

The Games
Peeta comes back and hands me Cinna, as Prim crawls onto his lap.
"Daddy, what are the Hunger Games?" she asks him.
Peeta shoots me a look. I shrug and turn away, awaiting his answer but not wanting to look.
"They're...well....umm....they were a TV show your mother and I were in."
Prim rolls her eyes. "I know that, Dad. But what are they?"
Peeta sighs. "Do you really want to know?"
Prim nods eagerly.
"Katniss?" Peeta asks, and I nod. Very slowly.
"Ok, sweetheart." he says to Prim, and tells her everything. Every last bloody detail. I have so many tears that held back until now. I can't stop myself. I cry. I cry for everyone. Rue, Finnick, even Cato. I cry for them all.
I look down at Cinna, fast asleep in my arms. It makes me miss his namesake, my fashion designer for the Hunger Games. He was brutally killed, right before my very eyes.
After a long while, Peeta's done with his story. He's done with everything. As I turn back around, wiping tears from my eyes, Prim is silent. I can tell she's thinking.
"You all right, Mommy?" she asks, looking up to see my tears. I just nod and pull her into a hug. I'm not going to lose her again. Her or Cinna.

Sudbury Byelection Scandal: Criminal Charges Stayed Against Ontario Liberal Fundraiser
SUDBURY, Ont. — Charges in a byelection scandal in Sudbury, Ont., have been stayed against a veteran Liberal fundraiser, though a separate bribery investigation is ongoing.
Gerry Lougheed had been charged with one count of counselling an offence not committed and one count of unlawfully influencing or negotiating appointments.
Police had alleged Lougheed offered a would-be Liberal candidate for a byelection last year a job or appointment to step aside for Premier Kathleen Wynne's preferred candidate.

But those charges were stayed Wednesday, meaning they are effectively dropped, at least for the time being. The Crown can choose to reactivate them within a year, but that is rare.
Premier Kathleen Wynne, speaking at an unrelated event in Brantford, Ont., said she thinks it is a good outcome.
However, the Ontario Provincial Police are still investigating Lougheed and Wynne's deputy chief of staff's byelection conduct under the Election Act.
Crown wasn't even in court
Elections Ontario found an "apparent contravention" by Lougheed and Pat Sorbara of a section of the act concerning "bribery in connection with inducing a person to become, refrain from becoming, or withdrawing from being a candidate."
The chief electoral officer referred the investigation to the Ontario Provincial Police in February 2015, but Det.-Supt. Dave Truax said Wednesday that probe is ongoing.
Lougheed's lawyer, Michael Lacy, said he was not given any reason for the stay, noting the Crown wasn't even in court.
"In terms of transparency, in terms of accountability to the public, in terms of accountability to my client, at least at this stage, the Crown has chosen not to give any explanation at all as to why they've stayed those charges," he said.
"It seems pretty clear today that what happened in light of the stay of proceedings today that the decision to proceed with criminal charges was done prematurely, was done in circumstances where they had not either fully investigated the matter or fully considered whether or not this could meet the threshold for a criminal charge."
"There will still be this heavy burden for him to carry on behalf of a party that right now won't give him the time of day anymore, that's completely cast him away."
The province had turned over Lougheed's case to the federal Public Prosecution Service, which would not comment on the reason for the stay.
The would-be candidate, Andrew Olivier, as a quadriplegic who records conversations in lieu of taking notes, taped both Lougheed and Sorbara and posted the audio online in late 2014.
Lougheed said he was there "on behalf of the premier" to ask if he would step aside and, "We would like to present to you options in terms of appointments, jobs or whatever."
New Democrat MPP France Gelinas noted that the party distanced itself from Lougheed at the time.
"It was quite obvious from the start that he was only the messenger," she said. "There will still be this heavy burden for him to carry on behalf of a party that right now won't give him the time of day anymore, that's completely cast him away," she said.
Wynne, who also spoke to Olivier but was not recorded, has said neither she nor Sorbara did anything wrong and were merely trying to keep Olivier in the party fold.

The Ontario Provincial Police are investigating allegations of bribery and corruption after a former Ontario Liberal candidate said he was offered a job or appointment to step aside for Premier Kathleen Wynne's choice in a Sudbury byelection. Wynne has denied the allegations. Here are some key dates in the scandal... Information courtesy of The Canadian Press
Sudbury New Democrat MPP Joe Cimino resigns after just five months on the job, citing "personal health wellness."
Sudbury Liberal riding association agrees to hold nomination meeting to select byelection candidate.
Premier Kathleen Wynne meets with NDP MP Glenn Thibeault, who agrees to run for the provincial Liberals. Wynne has said she decided at that meeting to appoint him.
Local Liberal and chair of the Sudbury police services board Gerry Lougheed visits Andrew Olivier, the failed Liberal candidate in the June provincial election who was seeking to run again. Lougheed asks Olivier to consider stepping aside and nominating Thibeault and tells Olivier "in the course of that deliberation'' to consider "appointments, jobs, whatever.''
Wynne phones Olivier, who is quadriplegic and tapes conversations as his way of taking notes. He says technical difficulties prevent him from recording that exchange.
Pat Sorbara, Wynne's deputy chief of staff, phones Olivier and says Wynne is "going to have to make a decision around the appointment,'' later telling him they should chat about what he would be interested in doing, be it "appointments to boards or commissions,'' a constituency office job or role in the party executive.
Olivier goes public with claims that Lougheed and Sorbara offered him a job or appointment to step aside; Progressive Conservatives ask Ontario Provincial Police to investigate; New Democrats ask Elections Ontario to investigate.
Thibeault publicly announces he will be the Ontario Liberals' byelection candidate.
Wynne calls Sudbury byelection for Feb. 5; sends letter to riding association president and nomination commissioner informing them of Thibeault's appointment.
OPP conclude no criminal offence was committed by the Liberals.
Olivier releases audio of his conversations with Lougheed and Sorbara; Progressive Conservatives ask OPP to reopen the investigation.
Thibeault wins Sudbury byelection; in a court document filed in order to get Olivier's original recordings, police say they have "grounds to believe'' a criminal offence was committed. The investigation is ongoing.
Elections Ontario makes "unprecedented finding'' that Lougheed and Sorbara's actions were in "apparent contravention'' of the Election Act; matter is referred to OPP and federal Crown.
UP NEXT: 5 Key Ontario Liberal Scandals
Ontario voters were able to look past these five scandals when they gave Kathleen Wynne's Liberals a majority government in June, 2014. (Information courtesy of The Canadian Press)
Ontario's publicly funded air ambulance service has been under fire for almost two years over sky-high salaries, financial irregularities and corruption allegations. A legislative committee has been probing the service's complex structures and pay scales in detail, and opposition parties have been alleging wrongdoing with nearly every revelation. The auditor general has criticized the governing Liberals for failing to oversee Ornge, despite giving it $730 million over five years and allowing it to borrow another $300 million. The Liberals insist Ornge went rogue with a web of for-profit companies and questionable business deals, as well as exorbitant salaries and lavish expenses.
Scandal has swirled around the government's decision to cancel the construction of two Toronto-area gas plants ahead of the 2011 election, in which the government then led by Dalton McGuinty was reduced to minority status. The cancellation costs have now been pegged at $1.1 billion, but opposition parties have accused the Liberals of actively trying to cover up that figure. Ontario's privacy commissioner has concluded that staff working for McGuinty and a former energy minister broke the law by deleting emails pertaining to the project. Ontario Provincial Police are also investigating the document deletions, seizing government computers at both Queen's Park and beyond.
The provincial agency was given a $1-billion budget to develop electronic health records, but wound up building themselves a bad reputation. A lot of the eHealth money went for untendered contracts given to highly paid consultants who then billed taxpayers for additional expenses in a scandal that cost former health minister David Caplan his job. In 2009, the auditor general said the agency had very little progress to show for its efforts, and opposition parties have alleged further financial mismanagement since then.
The government has taken heat for not immediately acting when it learned a $1.4-billion infrastructure project didn't live up to safety standards. The Liberals were told that questionable materials were being used on the support beams on Windsor's Herb Gray Parkway in December 2012, but didn't halt the project until July. More than 500 support beams are being replaced by the project overseer at no cost to the tax payers, but the NDP has accused the Wynne government of trying to cover up the affair and only backing down when threatened with media exposure.
Premier Kathleen Wynne has hailed the 2015 games as a cause for celebration, but opposition parties call it just another scandal. The $1.4-billion budget for the games does not include some key expenses, like the $700 million athletes' village. The government has also come under fire for $7 million worth of bonuses paid out to 64 executives.

Iris folding is a paper folding technique that originated in Holland. Strips of folded colored paper are taped into place over a pattern to create a spiral design that looks like the iris of a camera. These designs can then be used in note cards or even framed and hung on the wall for a gorgeous accent piece. I created an autumn maple leaf iris folding project to frame.
Autumn Maple Leaf Iris Folding Project
3 sheets of origami paper in different colors
1 piece of heavy card stock
scotch tape
self healing cutting mat
Exacto blade
- Print the pattern and cut it out.
- Trace the pattern on the back side of the card stock
- Carefully cut out the pattern from the inside of the card stock so there is basically a hole in the center of the card stock where the pattern is. Do not cut through the outside of the card stock.
- Cut each origami sheet into 1 1/2″ strips.
- Fold each strip in half so it is 3/4″ long.
- Tape the pattern into the hole left in the card stock so the pattern can be seen from the back side of the card stock.
- Carefully tape each strip, following the numbered key, onto the card stock. Trim as you go so you don't have an excess of origami paper on your card stock.
- Do each color at a time and then move clockwise to the next color.
- Flip the card stock over and carefully tuck any stray edges in. Frame or use mounted on a note card.
