Saw these on evil-bay. I contacted the seller hoping they were similar in size to the 105, but alas, they are a fair bit smaller. The 105 is 1-1/2 inches in diameter. The seller let me know that these are 1" in diameter and the brass ends are 4" on the female end and 4-1/2 on the male ends. The attachment is about 10" long.
If they are 75mm or 57mm, I am sure someone here can use them. They are on a buy it now of $100, which isn't bad as the brass stock would just about run you that much before you even start turning them.

Apple's iBeacon Tech Brings Art Gallery To Life
Antwerp museums look to establish a network of data pushing devices inside their buildings.
Digital agency Prophets has created an iBeacon-powered mobile app for Rubens House in Antwerp. Meant to be as tool for visitors of the respectable museum, this prototype demonstrates how cutting-edge technology can enhance the overall art experience.
With hopes to create an intricate network of digital content inside the house, Prophets positioned iBeacon sensors in just about every nook and cranny. These stand-alone sensors are battery-powered and communicates via Bluetooth. Because of its small, wireless design, Beacons can be installed without any physical intervention in the historic structure of the building.
Push notifications sent to smartphones and other mobile devices connect people in close proximity, notifying them of the stories behind different paintings and architectures. Through this app, users will have access to x-ray scans of the artwork, interactive trivia questions about Rubens and a GPS system that outlines the entire building.
iBeacon technology will change the museum experience, especially considering this type of technology hasn't yet been incorporated in non-retail settings. Once established, iBeacon can offer a spectrum of possibilities, ranging from guided tours by theme to interactive learning experiences for children.
See how the application is put to use below.

During the slow-news week between Christmas and New Year's, it becomes astoundingly clear that humans are good at predicting the future of things over which we have no influence -- movement of the planets, behavior of particles we can't see even with our most powerful instruments, the inevitable decay of order into the universe to a state of decoherent chaos and nothingness.
We're incredibly bad at predicting anything that has anything to do directly with us, however, especially when the predictions depend on how technology will develop and what we'll do about it.
In 1950, "Miracles You'll See in the Next 50 Years," included the ability to recycle underwear into candy and the assumption that most women would be housewives.
It also assumed it would be a good way to save the little lady some effort by making dishes out of "cheap plastic that would melt in hot water" so she could just let those carcinogens and long-chain polymers run down the drain and almost unimpeded out into the environment and water supply.
The predictions IBM releases every year are more substantial; they're all technologies IBM is developing in the lab and expects to be able to build into one specialty product or another before long.
Star Wars video chat
Its big news -- the sexiest thing in IBM's list of five things that will be real and practical technologies in five years -- is the three-dimensional hologram that will become the interface of choice for software and video chat.
Sometimes the "futuristic" predictions seem a little retro, like 3D holographic phones that will let us communicate the same way they did in Star Wars -- badly, with a lot of static and horrible catastrophes following immediately after the message.
3D holographic visi-phones, by the way are nothing like the videophones that changed the world in the 50s or two-way-television communications that changed it again in the 1970s.
Light, convenient power
Way more practical -- or at least desirable to those of us (all of us) who use portable computing devices -- is a design for batteries built around "energy-dense metal" (IBM didn't say which one) that would produce steady, long-lasting power for 10 times as long as current batteries when exposed to ambient air.
That detail-free teaser includes a promise that IBM is reducing the amount of energy each transistor uses to reduce the energy demand of small devices, to the point they could power themselves using the kinetic motion of the person carrying them, just as some wristwatches do now.
Kinetic energy is a possibility; power-saving transistors are great.
"Energy-dense metal" that generates power combined with room air? Sounds like sodium, lithium or one of the other unstable metals that do things like catch fire or explode when exposed to oxygen, water or other things found in ambient air.
I won't say it wouldn't ever be safe, but I'm not betting the TSA is going to let you on a plane carrying one any time soon.
Personalized commute, conserving heat
If the first three were a little mundane, the last two are mopwater dull -- though more likely to have an actual impact on consumers.
The first is a "personalized commute" that is actually the result of a big-system traffic analysis network that looks at the flow of commuters on all the roads, railroads and public transportation available, linking with adaptive traffic systems that can divert commuters from one route to another in real time to keep the roads moving.
The personalization comes in when you plug in the start and finish location and time of your commute; the IBM system would give you a reliable prediction of the best way to get to or from work, and give you real-time updates as you travel.
The last is a waste-heat-reclamation project aimed at data-center servers rather than the engines and brakes of Priuses.
Rather than spend 40 percent to 50 percent of the energy bill for your data center, servers would come with innovative cooling systems that run heat sinks to within microns of the processor to pull away heat and re-route it into the heating system for the building or city.
That would be cool from a tech standpoint, but you could manage the heat that way now with better ducting and airflow, which is a notorious weak point in most data centers.
Useful, but not sexy, and not the kind of technology that could be implemented in just one place, or by just one company. Often they're hard to even track.
You can always track how fast a new technology is developing by reading the research papers on it. Systems like adaptive traffic or municipal heat-capture from data centers depend on a lot of committee non-decisions and changes to facilities or utilities.
They're a lot more 'We'll see.' than 'Look at that!' And when it takes years for them to develop, that turns quickly into 'Who cares.'

Greater Cincinnati Regional Science Bowl
On February 25, 2017 the US Department of Energy's EM Consolidated Business Center will sponsor the 26th annual Greater Cincinnati Regional Science Bowl, one of the area's premier academic scientific events for high school students, at Cincinnati State technical and community college in Cincinnati, Ohio.
The exciting all-day Science Bowl competition includes oral question and answer rounds. High School teams consist of four students and an alternate student who attempt to outscore opposing student teams first by "Round Robin" format, then by "Double Elimination" format. The winning team proceeds to the next level of competition until only two teams remain. Questions are presented in toss-up-bonus format. Teams are quizzed on their scientific knowledge of:
Biology, Chemistry, Earth and Space Science,
Energy, Mathematics, and Physics
High schools in Ohio and certain counties in Kentucky may now register for the 2017 Greater Cincinnati Regional Science Bowl online at http://science.energy.gov/wdts/nsb/regional-competitions/high-school-regionals/Registration is only accepted online and is at no cost to participating schools. Teams must register each year of participation. The competition is limited to the first 24 high school teams that respond. Teams will be enrolled based on the order in which their applications are received. Schools may submit three teams, the first choice "A", second choice "B", third choice "C". If 24 high schools do not respond, then the "B" and "C" teams will be used space permitting, again based on the date of entry submission. Schools must be registered online by January 13, 2017.
Each year, the winning regional High School team receives an all expense paid trip to Washington, D.C., to compete in the Department of Energy (DOE) National Science Bowl, a Championship trophy to display at their school for a year, and awards for each team member. Each participant also receives take home gifts for competing in the Regional Science Bowl.
The Greater Cincinnati Regional Science Bowl would not happen without the outstanding support of our over 50 volunteers. Volunteers vary in scope from DOE EMCBC employees, DOE Retirees, DOE current and former Contract Employees, various businesses, agencies, and members of the community who share their dedication to advance frontiers in science. The DOE EM Consolidated Business Center encourages involvement through participating and promoting Science Education outreach.
If you, your group, business, or organization would like to be involved with the Greater Cincinnati Regional Science Bowl, have registration or general questions; please contact the Greater Cincinnati Science Bowl Regional Coordinator; Betsy Volk, Office Of Civil Rights and Diversity by email (firstname.lastname@example.com), or by phone at 513-246-0581.

Kaitlin Ringus apparently is all smiles when she goes to her doctor appointments. So much so, that she wants to make it a career.
"Whenever I go to the doctor, I want to do it because they treat me so nice," the Fife High School junior said last week during MultiCare Health System's annual Nurse Camp to introduce high school students to medical careers.
She attended the camp with eyes on becoming an Intensive Care nurse or pediatrician.
She was not alone. Not only did her fellow classmates Alan Cardenas, Tonya Than, Christian Borja and Madison Nevin join her from Fife High School, more than 100 high school students from King and Pierce County earned spots in the 10th-annual MultiCare Nurse Camp that includes hands-on lessons in modern medical equipment as well as job shadows and tours of medical facilities. The goal of the camp is to increase diversity in health care careers as well as provide a way to fill the ranks of the chronically short-handed nurse and technical positions. In 10 years, more than 800 students have attended MultiCare's Nurse Camp.
The students this year represented 31 Western Washington cities and towns. The four-day camp gave high-schoolers inside looks at careers in health care, that range from all departments of MultiCare's hospitals, as well as provided visits to Pacific Lutheran University, Tacoma Community College and Pierce College to see their medical training programs.
"I'm very pleased to have a diverse group of high school students who are interested in nursing join the MultiCare family for a week," said Nurse Camp Director Jamilia Sherls, MPH, BSN, RN. "Nurse Camp allows students to explore nursing and other health careers through hands-on activities, job shadowing and discussions with health professionals, visits to local nursing schools, and much more. They also receive a stethoscope and medical scissors to use during assessment activities.
"From these experiences, it is my hope that Nurse Camp students begin to visualize themselves as future nurses and become even more motivated to pursue this career path. It would be great if these students returned to MultiCare one day as a nurse or another health professional."
They certainly got a look at the various career fields medicine has to offer. Activities included everything from classes on nutrition and exercise as well as lessons on suturing a pig's foot with the proper stitch and tours of everything from the linen and food service departments and walk through tours of operating and emergency rooms.
All of the sights along the tour were just another day at work for Registered Nurse Mary Walls. She has been a nurse for 30 years, which included stints in the Air Force, a psychiatric ward, surgical rooms and orthopedic centers.
"You can do a lot of things as a nurse," she said while taking a break between groups of students learning about surgical tools.
Students learned how to form fiberglass splints for broken bones, how to sterilized medical equipment and how to remove candies using medical tools during the camp's famous "Skittlectomies." Another favorite activity during Nurse Camp is the alcohol awareness training that includes students wearing "beer goggles" that simulate the affects of alcohol on vision, response time and coordination.

Yeah so um I'm not even going to give you this recipe because it was so very wrong!
This almost looks good, it was meant to resemble "fried chik'n" with gravy. If looks could kill!
It all started with me boiling up my mixture of vital wheat gluten, flour, spices and broth. It just looked gross so I thought ok once I bread it and fry it it will be ok.
See looks edible, up until you actually go to eat it. It tasted like bread, stringy bread with gravy. No no no.
I wanted to like this but no amount of gravy could make this edible. So this vegan is going to stick to plants and veggies without the "wheat meat" on the side!

Life in Kharkov is ..different. It's changing each season. In winter there is plenty of snow which is not being cleaned. That is why people prefer to spend their time at home, in night clubs or restaurants. They visit theaters and cinemas more often this time of the year. Summer time is beautiful here. There are many parks, open-air night clubs, patios at cafes are open, also, people tend to spend much of their time out of the city.
There is a big expat community so there is no way you feel lonely :) It is an international city which hosts businessmen and students from all over the world. However, people will still be intrigued when hear you speaking a foreign language :)

NEW YORK – More than 200 firearms, from .22 caliber pistols to a submachine gun, have been seized in what New York called Monday the biggest seizure of illegal guns in the city's history.
In a statement, the administration of Mayor Michael Bloomberg hailed the undercover operation as proof its hard line on guns — and controversial "stop-and-frisk" police tactics — work.
The guns seized originated from the southern states of North Carolina and South Carolina — a 12-hour drive to New York along Interstate 95.
No permit is needed to buy a rifle or shotgun in either state, and South Carolina doesn't require permits for handguns either. Sales of assault rifles in South and North Carolina are unrestricted.
Of the 19 people charged, three were already in custody on unrelated charges. The others were picked up in New York, North Carolina and South Carolina in a series of arrests from Aug. 2.
Stung by the rejection of New York's controversial stop-and-frisk policy last week by a federal judge who deemed it unconstitutional, Bloomberg's administration stressed how one suspect expressed jitters about the tactic in a phone call picked up by a court-authorized wiretap.
"I can't take (the guns) to my house, to my side of town, 'cause I'm in Brownsville," a low-income and predominantly African-American section of Brooklyn, the suspect said. "So we got, like, whatchamacallit, stop and frisk."

Liquor-serving establishments
If you want to have a business in the City of Vancouver that sells or serves alcoholic drinks, you must have a liquor licence.
If you want to have a business in the City of Vancouver that sells or serves alcoholic drinks, you must have a liquor licence.
The Liquor Control and Licensing Branch (LCLB) issues licences in BC for making and selling liquor and supervises the service of liquor in licensed establishments. The branch alone is responsible for deciding if you will receive a licence.
The City of Vancouver also plays a significant role. The LCLB is required to consider specific community needs in deciding whether to issue or change a liquor licence. For some applications, such as new liquor primary establishments, this includes asking the city to provide a resolution that considers the following:
The following instructions apply to new applications, and permanent changes to existing Liquor Primary licences.
Meet with a Licence Coordinator to discuss your application before you submit your application.
Include the following:
We encourage you to liaise with area residents and business operators before submitting your formal application to let them know of a possible application to eliminate the public's surprise once the City conducts the official neighbourhood public consultation. The Chief Licence Inspector determines the level of public consultation. Processing fees are based on the degree of public consultation required for each application.
The site sign must conform to size, shape, and lettering requirements. Specific wording and content for the sign is provided by the Licence Coordinator. All applications require a site sign unless indicated otherwise by the Licence Coordinator.
Standard size is 4' × 8'. All variations must be approved by the License Coordinator.
Lettering is to be black Helvetica on a white background.
Signs must be:
Signs must be:
The outline of the premises, as provided in the application, must be outlined in red, including:
You or your agent must advise the Chief License Inspector or License Coordinator when the sign has been erected on the site.
The City's notification letter to surrounding residents and businesses (when required), advising them of your application will not be sent until written confirmation and a photograph of the sign on the site after it has been erected is received.
Signs must remain in place until Council has given a decision on the application, and must be removed no later than 7 days after the decision.
Download a larger version of sample image
The City will prepare and circulate a notification flyer to surrounding residents and businesses located within a minimum radius of approximately 150 metres, or about 1 and ½ blocks, of the existing or proposed establishment.
The Notice of Application encourages all recipients to provide comments within three weeks from the date of the notice. Notices are circulated only after the Licence Coordinator has received confirmation that the site sign is installed.
The City will schedule and advertise a public meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to:
We will normally schedule the public meeting in the last week of the neighbourhood flyer notification period or shortly after. Attendance at the meeting will be recorded and each attendee will be asked to indicate their support or opposition to the proposal. Verbatim minutes of the meeting are not recorded.
In cases where there appears to be considerable negative feedback or a clear split in support for and against the proposal within the neighbourhood, the City recommends a telephone survey.
The actual cost of the telephone survey, determined through a bid process, is in addition to the processing fee and is estimated at approximately $5,000. The telephone survey cost must be paid to the City by the applicant. The City then reimburses the firm chosen to conduct the survey.
A bid request to conduct the telephone survey is submitted to approve pre-qualified vendors by the City Purchasing Department. The lowest bidder is awarded the contract. The City specifies the following:
The Chief Licence Inspector will prepare a report to Council which will include comments from the following departments: Police, Fire Prevention, Development Services and Social Development (including Central Area Planning, Heritage Planning and Cultural Planning when applicable). The Chief Licence Inspector will recommend to endorse or not endorse, or put forward for consideration to Council a report including the following information:
All respondents providing their full name and address as part of the public consultation will be notified before the report is presented to Council. The Council report will be presented at the first available meeting of the Standing Committee of Council on Planning and Environment, subject to the City Clerk's Office report deadlines.
The Council decision is forwarded by the City Clerk's Office to the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch. A motion to defer a decision pending results of further public consultation will progress the application to the next step in the Public Consultation Process.
We will review the specifics of your proposal and determine the required level of public consultation. Your application will be circulated to relevant staff departments for comments. A Council report will typically be prepared at the end of this processing step for the following applications: Motor Vessels not requesting dockside service; very minor amendments to an existing Liquor Primary liquor licence and Motor Vessels requesting dockside service in areas where there are little or no residential uses in close proximity.
The total application fee for applications required to conduct Neighbourhood Notification is $1,966.00. All applications, except those noted in Step 1 above, will require neighbourhood notification.
At the end of this step in the process, a Council report will typically be prepared for the following Liquor Primary liquor licence applications: small hotel lounges; amendments to existing licences and some types of new establishments in areas of the City where there are little or no residential uses in close proximity.
The total application fee for applications required to conduct a Public Meeting is $3,813.00. A public meeting will normally be recommended for all new Liquor Primary liquor licence applications or major amendments to existing liquor licences in close proximity to residential uses and/or which may have a negative impact on adjacent businesses. New Restaurant Class-2 businesses in close proximity to residential uses may also require a public meeting.
At the end of this step, a final decision would be reached by Council on nearly all applications. Applications for establishments in designated entertainment areas, industrial areas, the core area of the Central Business District (CBD), areas with little adjacent residential development, or for a conversion of an existing liquor licence to a licence that will have a lesser impact (e.g., reduced hours; elimination of outdoor seating, etc.) would not normally be subject to the telephone survey requirement.
If your application requires a telephone survey, you must pay an additional $1012.00 for an application processing fee. Therefore, the total application processing fee will be $4,825.00. We expect that most applications required to conduct a telephone survey will be as a result of a Council decision. We will revise the report to Council to incorporate findings of the telephone survey.
All application processing for liquor licence categories not specifically noted here would be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Typical processing time for most applications is approximately three months, but may vary depending upon the nature of the application.
Applications not complying with Council policy or LCLB policy will delay processing and may not be brought to Council until the policy issues have been resolved.
Submit an amendment request when you want to temporarily extend:
Requests to temporarily amend a liquor licence must be submitted within a minimum of 5 weeks in advance of the first requested amendment date.
Extension requests for 5 or more days in a calendar year, requests for outdoor seating from establishments that do not currently have an approved patio space or requests that would reduce or eliminate off-street parking and/or loading spaces for the site must first obtain a development permit approval from the Director of Planning.
The Liquor Control and Licensing Branch (LCLB) restrict the number of temporary changes in the range of 4 to 6 events per calendar year. Please contact the LCLB for further information.
Applicable to all temporary requests to amend any liquor licence:
|Special event hours
|Downtown -

A bylaw amendment passed by Council on November 19, 2009 establishes the hours of liquor service in restaurants as:
A half-hour tolerance period, after which drinks must be removed from tables, applies.
To operate under later hours, you must send an application to the City of Vancouver, and the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch (LCLB).
Brand new licences / operators are restricted to hours of liquor service to midnight for a period of up to 6 months at the discretion of the Chief Licence Inspector.

It's become a little bit harder for women alleging pregnancy discrimination under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) to win discharge lawsuits. To prevail, a new mother has to prove that pregnancy discrimination was a "substantial motivating factor" in her discharge.
What's more, even if she does, her employer can claim it would have terminated her anyway for other perfectly legal reasons. That will block an award of back pay and other costly penalties.
It's one more reason to carefully document all discipline and consider the complete picture when making termination decisions.
Recent case: Lorena had some minor disciplinary write-ups. Then she went out on maternity leave. While still on leave, she came to the office and got into a heated argument with several co-workers.
She returned from maternity leave on schedule, but was fired about three hours later, allegedly for performance issues.
Lorena sued and persuaded a jury that her pregnancy was a motivating factor in her discharge. The employer appealed.
The appeals court said the lower court used the wrong standard: Lorena had to prove that her pregnancy was a substantial factor in her discharge. The appeals court ordered a new trial. (Alamo v. PMIC, No. B230909, Court of Appeal of California, 2nd Appellate District, 2013)
Note: Unfortunately for the employer, it won't be able to raise the defense that it would have fired her for legal reasons anyway. Reason: It didn't raise that question in its original pleadings.
Final note: Your best defense to any lawsuit is always good records. If you can show the employee was discharged for poor performance and that others with similar performance problems suffered the same fate, you'll win most FEHA lawsuits.

I am not convinced there is anything strange about the way
Attributes and Block work together. It seems to me the reason
Block[{Context = Context}, Attributes[Context]]
yields {} is that the attributes of the local variable simply
are not inherited when using Set. That is:
In[1]:= Attributes[f] = {Listable};
g = f;
Attributes[{f, g}]
Out[3]= {{Listable},{}}
Adding more layers of abstraction won't change this behavior.
Additional layers of abstraction simply obscures the fact that
Set doesn't pass on attributes.

- Milestone set to FCKeditor 2.6
The proposed patch includes the suggestion of #1608 and the code to have a generic handler.
to test it I've used this simple code:
function FCKeditor_OnComplete(editorInstance) { editorInstance.RegisterDoubleClickHandler(ClickLinks, 'a'); editorInstance.RegisterDoubleClickHandler(Everything); } function ClickLinks(o) { alert("Link, " + o.nodeName) } function Everything(o) { alert("Node, " + o.nodeName) }
comment:2 Changed 10 years ago by martinkou
- Keywords Review- added; Review? removed
It seems to me that line 289 - 298 might be unsafe, since the reference to oldFunction would be changed and thus at most only two function references can be stored. I might be wrong though.
How about changing it to use an array or an object to store all the event handlers like in FCKEvents? That's the more traditional and time-proven way of implementing a publisher and subscriber pattern.

Revised patch
comment:3 Changed 10 years ago by alfonsoml
- Keywords Review? added; Review- removed
- Owner set to alfonsoml
- Status changed from new to assigned
The trick in that code was that each new function was wrapping the previous one, so it would work, although I agree that it was far from ideal and should have rewritten it instead of just trying to use directly in the way that it was suggested.
The new patch uses exactly the same code than the FCKEvents.

Laurent Koscielny says he is still considering which national team he would like to represent.
The defender has been approached by Poland, who he is eligible to play for due to his heritage. However the 24-year-old is not yet ready to end his hopes of representing France.
"I'm still thinking about it but I need more time to make my mind up," he said.
"My grandfather was Polish. He emigrated to France and unfortunately over time we lost the language, the roots.
"The Polish FA asked me to collect documents and do some paperwork required to obtain citizenship. But I haven't made the decision if I want to play for them.
"I am open for negotiations."
The defender hopes his move to Arsenal could further his international prospects and is clear on which country he would prefer to represent.
"When you play for such a big club as Arsenal, it helps you to reach the international level quicker," he said. "I don't want to lose a chance of playing for France.
"That is my priority. I want to play in the French national team."
Koscielny also rebuffed the suggestion that France's World Cup performance may have deterred him from representing Les Bleus.
"No, I do not think so," he responded. "I do not take into account the results of the French team. I will take a decision based on my feelings and what is in my heart.
"The question is 'do I want to play for France or Poland?' I am not looking at the French performance at the World Cup."

Dir: Robert Hamer|UK|1949|106 mins|U
"The Ealing genre reached utter perfection with this superb black comedy of manners about the most elegant serial killer in history"
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian *****
Perhaps the most perfect of all the Golden-Age Ealing comedies, Kind Hearts and Coronets famously featured Alec Guinness in eight different roles as the unsuspecting members of the aristocratic D'Ascoyne family – bumped off one by one by the scheming, outcast cousin of the family: Louis Mazzini (Dennis Price).
The film featured stunning and inventive cinematography by Douglas Slocombe, and a groundbreaking first-person narrative that, legend has it, inspired Scorsese to make use of the same device in Goodfellas. 2011 is also the centenary of the birth of Kind Hearts' director Robert Hamer.
Opens at the BFI Southbank and nationwide on 19 August 2011.

Wilcox read by Classic Poetry Aloud: http://www.classicpoetryaloud.com Giving voice to the poetry of the past. -------------------------------------- Show me the Way by Ella Wheeler Wilcox Show me the way that leads to the true life. I do not care what tempests may assail me, I shall be given courage for the strife; I know my strength will not desert or fail me; I know that I shall conquer in the fray: Show me the way. Show me the way up to a higher plane, Where body shall be servant to the soul. I do not care what tides of woe or pain Across my life their angry waves may roll, If I but reach the end I seek, some day: Show me the way. Show me the way, and let me bravely climb Above vain grievings for unworthy treasures; Above all sorrow that finds balm in time; Above small triumphs or belittling pleasures; Up to those heights where these things seem child's-play: Show me the way. Show me the way to that calm, perfect peace Which springs from an inward consciousness of right; To where all conflicts with the flesh shall cease, And self shall radiate with the spirit's light. Though hard the journey and the strife, I pray, Show me the way. Reading Classic Poetry Aloud, 2008.

Sunday 25 June 2017
In action: Dr Philip Giddings addresses General Synod
A MOTION of no confidence in the chairman of the House of Laity,
Dr Philip Giddings, was voted down in the House on Friday
afternoon. The motion, proposed by Stephen Barney after Dr Giddings
spoke against the draft women-bishops Measure in November (
News, 7 December,
23 November), was lost by 80 votes to 47. There were 13
recorded abstentions.
Speaking to the House of Laity after the vote, Dr Giddings said:
"I am grateful for the vote of confidence, but need in a sense take
my own medicine. Clearly there is a substantial minority of the
House who do not have confidence. I intend to continue in office,
but will take careful advice from colleagues about how we proceed
from here." Dr Giddings said that there needed to be "some kind of
debate" about what the expectations were of the chair and the
vice-chair of the Synod "on matters of this kind".
"I hope we can now put this behind us and the temperature can be
lowered, and we seek to work together for the sake of God's mission
to this country. That is why we are here, that is why our Church is
here, and that's what we need to work for," he said.
The House of Laity debated the motion for about two hours.
Moving the motion, Mr Barney said that Dr Giddings's speech against
the draft women-bishops Measure had been "partisan and narrow when
it should have been strategic and statesmanlike". It had "killed
the momentum Justin Welby's speech [in favour of the Measure] had
just created". Mr Barney also took issue with Dr Giddings for
failing to support the views of the House of Bishops and both
Some members of the House of Laity expressed a lack of
confidence in the ability of Dr Giddings to represent fairly the
views of the majority of the House. Some said that his position as
convener of Anglican Mainstream - described by Tim Allen (St
Edmundsbury & Ipswich) as holding "extreme views on gender and
sexuality" - conflicted with his chairmanship of the House.
Christina Rees (St Albans), a member of the Archbishops'
Council, cited a letter that Dr Giddings had written to The
Times, which, she said, was signed as the Chair without the
authority of the House; his speech in the November debate; and, she
suggested, his lack of frankness about his views on the theology of
women during the 2010 elections for the chair. She questioned
whether he would have been elected to this position "if some of us
had known the full extent of his concerns about providing
protection for those against having women as bishops".
But many members of the House of Laity spoke strongly in defence
of Dr Giddings. The First Church Estates Commissioner, Andreas
Whittam Smith, said that the motion misunderstood the role of the
chair of the House of Laity in debates held by the Synod as a
whole. In meetings of the House of Laity, Dr Giddings was obliged
to be even-handed; in meetings of the Synod as a whole, he was
permitted to say whatever he wished, just like any other member of
the Synod.
Mr Whittam Smith said that the motion was "punitive", and seemed
prepared to humiliate Dr Giddings, who had devoted much time to
serving the Church.
Joanna Monckton (Lichfield) expressed "disbelief at the
unchristian behaviour . . . in calling this meeting . . . a most
cruel way of treating anyone, let alone a sincere Christian who has
every legal right to vote in the way he did". Dr Chik Kaw Tan
(Lichfield) said that Dr Giddings was "a very eminent servant of
the Church, of the highest personal integrity and Christian
virtue". The motion could "only be seen as an act against freedom
of speech".
Responding to the debate, Dr Giddings said that he had "no
choice" about when he spoke in the women-bishops debate. His words
had not been intended to undermine or personally criticise Bishop
Welby, but, in any case, he had offered "an apology for any offence
my words may have caused him".
Bishop Welby's reply was quoted to the Synod, with permission:
"It never crossed my mind that you were in the slightest being
offensive, discourteous, impolite, [or disrespectful]. . . I did
think you were wrong! You thought I was, but we really need to be
able to disagree, as I am sure you do agree."

UEFA on Wednesday booted Ukrainian giant Metalist Kharkiv out of the Champions League. Metalist had been scheduled to play Schalke 04 in the Champions League playoffs, which begin next week. The European governing body's decision comes 10 days after Metalist lost an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport over a domestic match-fixing case from 2008.
The club, runner-up
last season to Shakhtar Donetsk in the Ukraine, has already knocked out Greek team PAOK and was due to play Schalke in a two-game series on Aug 21 and 27 with the winner qualifying for this
season's Champions League. UEFA's emergency panel is set to meet on Wednesday to "consider the consequences of the decision on the competition." As Reuters points out,
Metalist could still appeal to the CAS over UEFA's decision and ruling in the club's favor could throw the competition into confusion.
Turkish giant Fenerbahce is in a similar
position. Though it faces Arsenal in a two-game playoff for UCL qualification, Fener might not know the final ruling about its match-fixing case until the group stage has already started. Read the original story...

UDINESE face a striker crisis ahead of Thursday's Europa League crunch with Celtic.
Boss Francesco Guidolin last night insisted Antonio Di Natale was the only frontman fit for Parkhead after injuries KO'd Brazilian Barreto and Italian Antonio Floro Flores.
Gabriel Torje, Udinese's £10million summer signing, is cup-tied.
After watching his side labour to a 0-0 draw at Cagliari - a result that kept them joint top of Serie A - Guidolin insisted he has no option but to shuffle his pack.
He said: "We go to Glasgow with only one striker, Antonio di Natale. It is necessary to rotate the players otherwise they will pick up more injuries."
Meanwhile, James Forrest insists Celtic are not wasting their time and title chances in a vain pursuit of Euro success.
The Hoops, who remained in the competition after Sion were booted, face a punishing drain on their resources.
Atletico Madrid and Udinese are favourites to progress from the group and with French side Rennes also in opposition, Celtic have six huge tests. The squad's energy will also be tested by six crucial SPL matches - five away from home - following the Euro showdowns. But Forrest slammed the theory that Celtic don't have the stamina or class for Europe.
He said: "We fancy our chances on Thursday. The fans will be massive for us. They will spur us on. "We need to do well in the SPL and these games are a bonus but in front of the fans it will be tremendous on Thursday.
"You look at this group and it could easily be one from the Champions League."
After losing to Atletico, Celtic flopped at Ibrox and following the Udinese game they face a vital away test in the SPL against Hearts on Sunday.
But Forrest is adamant the Hoops can handle the hectic schedule and added: "We have the players to cope.
"It's a big squad and we have boys who can play in the SPL and then in Europe."
But boss Neil Lennon's options are being limited and news defender Kelvin Wilson is out for eight to 10 weeks with a torn Achilles tendon is a blow.
Striker Gary Hooper is also racing to be fit for Udinese after sustaining an ankle knock during the weekend win over Caley Thistle.

Singapore Cemeteries
There are several cemetery records in the Family History Library. Do a Place search with:
Here are a number of online resources:
Bidadari Cemetery (Chinese: 比达达利坟场,Malay:Perkuburan Bidadari) is a historical cemetery in Singapore. There are two sections. The Muslim section is at the base of Mount Vernon, bounded by Upper Aljunied Road, Upper Serangoon Road, and Bartley Road. The Christian section is across Upper Aljunied Road from the Muslim section, and bounded by Upper Serangoon Road as well.
Apart from being a place of remembrance, the trails inside Bidadari Cemetery used to be very popular as a running route for members of the Gurkha Contingent. Bidadari Cemetery is no longer in use, and most of the graves have been exhumed for redevelopment. Woodleigh MRT Station now occupies part of the former site.
The word bidadari means "fairy" and is probably derived from the Sanskrit word widyadari, which means a nymph of India's heaven or a houri of paradise. The bidadari are depicted as kindly fairies and genies that preside over the union of flowers. In the local context, the name is a reference to the beauty of the wife of Maharajah abu Bakar of Johore who had a house there. The cemetery took the name after the sultan's wife ceased to reside there, the grounds were leased to a Japanese person who built moats with typical Japanese wooden bridges and a teahouse. The cemetery was a burial site of A. P. Williams, an English sailor on whose life, writer Joseph Conrad based his novel, Lord Jim. Burials were not permitted after 1972, and it was the same year that the Mount Vernon Crematorium and Columbarium was opened, which eventually closed in 2004 due to redevelopment. The government began to exhume graves in 2001 in the Christian portion of the cemetery to build a new town in the future, reportedly known as Bidadari New Town.

Incorporating Artifacts and Guest Speakers into Curriculum Planning
Artifacts and guest speakers are enriching and exciting for your students.
By Deborah Reynolds
Imagine a classroom where the presentation of lessons felt like going on a field trip. When students are exposed to a variety of resources, imagination takes learning beyond the four walls of the classroom. A great hook to any lesson in any subject is a visual. That visual could be a cannon ball from the Civil War period or a representative from the local electric company holding a model of a parallel circuit. A letter from a soldier written to the bride he left behind could open up a unit on the American Revolution.
Once students are hooked, they are motivated to learn, and more enthusiastic about what they are learning about. Creating student interest helps ensure engagement in each lesson. To maintain that interest, authentic resources should be incorporated. Teachers can plan a unit by pooling the resources present at their school. What is already available? What contacts do other staff members already have? The next step would be to contact local museums and businesses. Some museums have outreach programs in which speakers and artifacts can be brought to the school. Many businesses have representatives that are trained to go out to the schools and talk about his or her job and the business being represented. The majority of these programs are free.
For example, students who are working on a unit on animals in their classroom can benefit from seeing the real article. Some museums let you check out animals that have been preserved using taxidermy. Your students will marvel at the sight of a real cougar lying on a table outside their classroom, or be fascinated with the size of a badger's claws. By bringing in real examples of the animals students are studying, you can help them learn about animals, the environment they live in, and many other facts. But even more importantly you can get students' imaginations going. Just imagine what great stories students might write after seeing these animals up close.
Artifacts and guest speakers take learning beyond the textbook, and make the information on the pages of the book come to life. Additionally, artifacts and speakers address a variety of learning styles and interests. Ultimately, students will be engaged, motivated, and excited to learn. Below are some examples of lessons that use artifacts and/or guest speakers.
Artifact and Guest Speaker Lesson Plans:
Learn to Think Like an Archaeologist
Students work cooperatively to determine what information can be obtained from an artifact. Each group is given a replica of an artifact. The groups must discuss what they think the artifact is, and what role it played in history.
Interpreting History with Artifacts: Mid to Late 1800's
Students studying the Civil War period are given a variety of artifacts to hold and study. Examples include a bonnet, musket balls, pottery, an ink well, and a dipper gourd. Students examine the artifacts to determine who would have used these items, and from which region of the country they represent. The lesson comes with a rubric and graphic organizer.
This lesson is on immigration. Guest speakers who are early United States immigrants come to the classroom to share their experiences with the students. Students are able to ask questions, then create a scrapbook from their experiences.

Highway reopens after train derailment near Logansport
A northern Indiana highway is back open after being closed most of a day following a freight train derailment.
The Journal and Courier says Indiana 25 south of Logansport reopened Tuesday morning after being closed north of Delphi.
Norfolk Southern Corp. spokesman Dave Pidgeon says the highway remained closed while crews worked on damaged rails running alongside the highway.
A Norfolk Southern freight train collided with a trailer stopped on the tracks Monday morning, derailing the train's four engines and damaging the rails. Authorities have said the train dragged the trailer about 100 feet along the tracks about 70 miles north of Indianapolis.
Forty-seven-year-old truck driver David Jones of Indianapolis told investigators he didn't see the train coming. The Pharos-Tribune reports he's been cited for failure to yield.

HOMER CITY — Homer-Center High School is proud to acknowledge and congratulate the mock trial team that is led by Christina Bruno.
The mock trial team is divided into two parts. The first part is defense, which consists of Michael Sweeney (defendant), Megan Topeka (expert witness) and Laura Jones (investigative reporter). The second part is prosecution, which consists of Logan Dellafiora, Shawn Steffee and Morgan Smith.
On Tuesday, Homer-Center picked up a win after months of hard work against Brockway High School in the Jefferson County Courthouse in Brookville. Their next mock trial will be at the Indiana County Courthouse against DuBois.
Our mock trial team proudly represents the character of Homer-Center School District. Team leader Bruno said "Watching them grow from a group with little to no knowledge in law to a great team is rewarding as an educator."
This group of young, dedicated adults has been working hard for months with much-appreciated help from Magistrate Susanne Steffee, Senior Magistrate Mike Steffee, Attorney Mike Supinka and Pennsylvania State Police Troopers Rob Worcester and Scott Smith. Through their help and the leadership of Bruno, they have had success and look to continue their great accomplishments.
Bruno also said, "One of my favorite parts of being a mock trial coach is watching the students grow into professional attorneys and competent witnesses."
Homer-Center School District wishes the best of luck to the mock trial team.

I have a 06 wrx wagon, automatic, no turbo guage, 115k miles, stock, maintained well.
I noticed this last week that the turbo is not kicking in when it usually does (around 4000rpm?), and not at all. Service engine light is not on. I haven't noticed any ongoing unusual noises. Only odd thing I can think of is a couple days ago I heard a sound under the car that sounded like I ran something over in the street - like a twig or something small that kicked up under the car - but when I looked in the rear view I didn't see anything. I wasn't in turbo mode, just at an average 30mph cruising speed. Also hadn't used the turbo for a while before that. In fact I may have noticed the lack of turbo before that incident. As I said, I haven't noticed anything else out of the ordinary.
How can I tell if the "turbo is blown" and needs full replacing or if it is something else?
Would the service engine light go on?
Any tell tale signs under the hood? I am a relative noob.
Recently replaced power steering belt.
Any advice on stearing away from getting screwed if I take it in to be checked out and/or fixed?

City of Billings' Building Codes were last adopted on 02/07/2015 per Administrative Order #128.
A handout specifying each code and edition year is available at the Building Division front counter on the 4th floor of the Miller Building at 2825 3rd Avenue North.
In 1993, the City Council commissioned a study by Marvin and Associates, a local traffic engineering firm, to determine where signals were needed and to prioritize needs. This study is updated periodically by the Traffic Engineering staff to take into account changing traffic volumes and more current accident data. The City Council typically budgets one new signal each year from this list. They have been historically installed in priority order, unless installation with a street reconstruction project makes more sense.
Please keep in mind that traffic signals are predominately a means of assigning which vehicles have the right of way at an intersection. The number of accidents often increases at a location after a signal has been installed, although the most common type of accident may change from right angle accidents to rear-end accidents.

Funds are not fully committed for a specific purchase until staff receives from an applicant that has received preliminary approval, a copy of the buy-sell agreement and a good faith estimate. At that time staff, issues a final approval letter which authorizes the lender to proceed. This letter signifies the City's intent to fund the project.
Staff recommends you talk to your lender or call the Community Development office (406-657-3045) regarding the status of funding before making an offer to purchase. Good communication can avoid major disappointment.
Lenders have asked the City to take "third position" behind the home equity loan. This is prohibited and cannot be approved.
Many applicants have taken out home equity loans as they have gained equity and used a portion of the funds to repay the City, which would release the restrictions on the property. The City then reinvests the funds into our program allowing us the opportunity to assist another applicant.
The appraiser's inspection is to determine the value of the home and not to guarantee the condition.
It is a good idea for you to get a licensed inspector if you are not sure of the condition of the home.

Citation: Tipping, P.W., Holko, C.A., Bean, R.A. 2005. Helicoverpa zea (lepidoptera: noctuidae) dynamics and parasitism in maryland soybeans . Biological Control. Interpretive Summary: The corn earworm is a major pest of soybeans in the Mid-Atlantic area, especially after the corn crop has begun to dry out. Soybeans with open canopies and pods just beginning to fill can suffer rapid and significant yield losses as the earworm larvae feed directly on them. Trapping adult moths in black-light traps has been used to monitor populations but has not been predictive for larval numbers in soybeans. We found that the earlier the peak of adult captures in traps, the greater the chance for outbreaks of earworms in soybeans. These peaks are influenced directly by the weather: dryer and warmer than normal weather in August explained most of the variation in larval densities over the three year period of this study. Also, larvae were found to be heavily parasitized by a suite of parasites that, in some years, quickly reduced the larval populations to very low levels. Parasitism generally doubled each week during the period in late August, early September when the moths switched to laying eggs in soybeans. Cooler, wetter conditions increased the incidence of fungal and viral infections in earworm larvae.
Technical Abstract: Larval populations of the corn earworm, Helicoverpa zea (Boddie), were surveyed in soybeans from 1995 to 1997 in order to catalogue larval parasites and their rates of parasitism and quantify the relationship between moth captures in black-light traps and larval densities. Parasitism was consistently high throughout the region averaging 80.3%, 82.3%, and 73.1% for all dates in 1995, 1996, and 1997, respectively, and appeared to suppress H. zea populations. The predominate parasite species was Microplitis croceipes (Cresson) with some parasitism by Cotesia marginiventris (Cresson), Meterous autographae Meus., and Winthemia rufopicta (Bigot). The date of the peak weekly capture of moths explained 99.7% of subsequent larval densities in soybeans, while the average weekly moth catches did not. The earlier moth peak in 1995 corresponded with higher populations of larvae while the later peaks in 1996 and 1997 were followed by very low, sub-economic larval populations. Departures from normal for precipitation and temperature during August explained 99.8% and 95.3%, respectively, of the variation in the date of peak moth capture.
