In fact, they are far more likely to be victims of violence, or a danger to themselves. And while people with untreated schizophrenia have a higher risk of violence than the population as a whole, these cases are extremely rare, and crimes against strangers are even more so.
Facts aside, and even though one in five Canadians will experience a mental illness, our phobias are firmly entrenched: In a 2008 national survey commissioned by the Canadian Medical Association, one in four Canadians said they would be fearful about being around someone with a serious mental illness. More than half said they would be unlikely to marry someone (or hire a lawyer, child-care provider or financial planner, family doctor, or even a landscaper) with a mental illness.
"There is really very little evidence that there has been a change in the attitudes toward people with mental illness," says Ross Norman, a University of Western Ontario psychology professor who studies the nature of stigma. Research on stigma, in general, has suggested that it originates from a sense that the individual is personally responsible for his or her situation – so in the past decade, for instance, anti-stigma campaigns have stressed the biological and hereditary factors behind mental illness. Subsequent research shows that while people believed the science, it didn't do much to change their attitudes, and if anything it shored up the belief that mental illness was an intractable and unpredictable condition, that, as Dr. Ross puts it, "there was something wrong with their brains."
That's where people like Mr. Kimber, and other well-spoken, professional people come in, Dr. Ross suggests, by countering stereotypes and creating positive role models. "It's probably one of the best ways of making a difference," he says.
People within Canada's mental-health community, including patients themselves and family members who had watched loved ones become lost in the system, began speaking out in the 1980s. Many went on to play key roles in the organizations that now advocate for better treatment and funding. Among those early spokespeople was June Conway Beeby, in Kingston, Ont., who began telling the tragic story of her son who committed suicide in 1981 after a long history with schizophrenia.
"I wasn't going to hide what happened to Matthew," she says. "I wanted people to know that he had a terrible illness, and how we received very poor treatment, very little treatment at all, in fact." Friends and family assumed that her son had been on drugs, that he was the victim of a deal gone wrong. People stopped talking when she passed by at work, or they avoided her completely. "I can make sure the world knows what happened to my precious boy," she thought, and she began giving speeches and speaking out in the media. She didn't spare the details: She found her son in his apartment, lying in a pool of blood with dinner knives plunged through his eyes where he had pounded them into his brain. "Now you know where my efforts come from," she says.
For her, the stigma is slow in changing – the education campaigns often miss the point.
"Prevention is a mug's game," she says. By her reasoning, the surest way to fight stigma is to improve access to treatment and hospital beds, especially for more severe cases of mental illness. Every act of violence highlighted in the media, she points out, sets back any effort to educate the public. "Why wouldn't they feel stigma and fear?"
Political correctness can teach the right language, but how deeply does it change attitudes?
For a decades, Andrea Schluter, now a 47-year-old natural history painter in Vancouver, tried to keep her depression quiet. A graduate student in wildlife biology, she knew all too well what her peers in the field thought: "They equated depression with cowardice, particularly if you were suicidal."
In the 1990s, she was admitted to hospital in a manic state, and felt she had to write about it publicly: "I recall the realization that I had been thrown, violently, into another world," she explains. "And I knew, with every cell in my body carrying the genetic set-up for this sickness of the mind, that I would need to find a way to live in that world."Report Typo/Error

The Institute for Justice (IJ) fights for the little guy. IJ has a great track record of standing up to government when they refuse the right to earn a living here in the land of opportunity. Clark Neily is a senior attorney for IJ and has been on the front lines fighting for basic economic freedoms that Americans are promised in our constitution. As a result, he's seen how our courts have failed in protecting our freedoms. In this speech given at the Independence Institute offices on April 16th, Clark discusses his new book, Terms of Engagement: How Our Courts Should Enforce the Constitution's Promise of Limited Government.

Technical Abstract: Precision farming is applying the right inputs at the right place at the right time. Weeds occur in patches and one of the promises of precision farming is a reduction in herbicide application by applying variable rates and treating only the weed patches instead of applying a uniform rate over the field. There are many potential benefits of precision weed management. One of the major benefits is a reduction in cost due to reduced use of herbicides. It has been estimated that farmers can save between $3 to $20/ha, depending on the herbicide, weed density and type of variable rate application. However, before these multiple benefits of precision weed management can be realized, there are barriers that will need to be overcome. These barriers include the cost of mapping weed patches, and increased risk. . Much work and research needs to be done in order to make precision weed management more user-friendly, less expensive and more robust before it will be widely practiced.

$35 shipped to US or Canada
Here is a complete gasket set for your 1.5 or 1.6 liter VW injection pump. Part number DGK 126 New from Bosch, the same as your injection pump. This is not some foreign second quality junk. Most of these kits that you find for sale on the internet are not true Bosch kits made in the USA from true German specifications. This fits any 1.6 NATURALLY ASPIRATED or TURBO pump and includes all seals in the entire pump. I rebuilt a pump with one of these kits and it is still on the road. This kit is different than most, because it includes the hard to find gaskets for the fuel enrichment valve of the turbo pump. If you are resealing a NA pump, just dispose of the extra gaskets. This is a gasket kit and does not include the front seal.
This is a true VITON Seal Kit. I personally have run B100, ULSD, SVO, WVO and Kerosene through an injection pump that I resealed using one of these kits. I don't just sell these kits, I actually use them myself on a daily basis. My daily driver is an 80 Caddy with a 1.9 mTIDI.
If you need the front mainshaft seal, they are $10 and we can ship them inside of the box with the gasket set at no additional cost.
If you are resealing a turbo pump and are need of the aneroide diaphragm, please email us. We can ship it with your seal kit at no additional cost.
If you need a kit for any other diesel pump, I can get them just IM me.

How to Do Mobile Keyword Research in 2013
One of the primary reasons for doing mobile keyword research is that you could be missing out on keywords that your audience uses on mobile that they don't use on desktop (e.g., [keyword + "nearby"]). There are some categories, such as restaurants, where upwards of 30 percent of their search volume comes from mobile devices, and if you're not taking that into account in your keyword research, you could be choosing the wrong target keywords for your intended audience.

Two items:
1) ensure that you are talking to the Service Foreman. Not the Service Manager, and not the Service Writer. The Writer takes your service order. He or she is not necessarily all that super technically skilled. The Service Manager may only be an individual who is rising through mgt ranks. By comparison, the lead technician, or the Service Foreman, is often both a person who is on the tools, part-time, and also a person who may go on test drives.
2) be confident, that this problem is not necessarily wide-spread -- but it is a problem, none-the-less. Go to Parts. Confirm with them that a NEW PART NUMBER has been issued, for the steering rack, reflecting components that now undergo heightened QC checking, for whatever parameter that was found to be suspect on the offending units. Why a new part number? That should serve as corroborating evidence that there was / is a problem! I think the steering position sensor, somehow is inaccurately placed on the offending units. The EPAS system ends up fighting the driver. That's why it feels notchy.
It appears only to happen, at or above certain speeds (usually at expressway speeds). Also, it appears to happen after a certain period of time -- not necessarily right away.
I hope this helps.
Note that when owners of 2009 thru 2011 Toyota Corollas (with EPAS) also complained, it was a relatively small contingent who had the problem. Even some of the owners, active on forums, dissed those who brought up this problem. Do not be demoralized re this treatment! You are not imagining this issue -- it is just not that wide-spread.
If you must, bring some of the forum discussion, hardcopy, with you, particularly text that really describes the issue well.
Ford should be issuing a TSB on this issue!!!!

It's about time I got my "Page to Fame" here.
I'll just bring every one up to speed on my life so far.
When I was just a tiny thing I started climbing the screens on this house. Don't ask me why, it just seemed like the thing to do at the time. Well, a lady came out of the house and got me then she took me door to door to see if I belonged somewhere else. No one claimed me so the lady took me home for keeps. Well, her daughter said she wanted me so I went to live with her. Which was good.
Well she had 3 children, then the oldest developed severe allergies to cats which was starting to cause some health issues for him.
So in February of 2010 I came back here to live. I must say it has been a big improvement for me. I get to roam the whole house instead of being closed in a room away from everyone because of allergies. I even get to sleep on the beds if I want to. Plus it's quieter with no kids playing all the time, which allows for some serious nap-time.
It's been a little sad around here so far this year. In January two of the other cats that lived here went to the bridge. First Simba, then three days later Kissi. Then on February 22 Suzy Q went to the bridge. So I'm the only fur baby left.
When I see that mom is getting upset from all of that sadness I just go sit on her and purr. Mom starts petting me and I can tell she starts feeling calmer.

Hopes are high for the Vermont women's basketball team. Coach Lori Gear McBride returns each of her top five scorers from a season ago, including seniors Shanai Heber and Lauren Buschman, who is back after tearing her ACL last January. Last year's freshman standouts, Tierra Schumpert, Niki Taylor and Kayla Burchill are all back and a year more experienced. Vermont is picked tied for fourth in the America East preseason coaches poll, starting off on the right foot with both Buschman and Lauren Wheeler back from knee injuries.

DENVER -- Despite being without senior and 2000 NCAA floor exercise champion Suzanne Sears, who was out due to illness, the fifth-ranked Georgia Gym Dogs cruised to their fourth consecutive victory Friday night, defeating the Denver Pioneers 197.325-195.975 before 957 fans at Hamilton Gym.
at UCLA
Sunday, 5 p.m.
Georgia's final team total marks the fifth straight meet it has scored a 197.225 or higher, its highest road score of the season and its highest road score overall since it scored a 197.075 in a victory over Kentucky on March 5, 1999.
Denver's final team score was its season high and also the fourth-highest score in school history.
The Pioneers had six gymnasts set career highs on Friday night.
''I was very pleased with our performance tonight,'' said Georgia coach Suzanne Yoculan. ''It was our first road competition in four weeks and I think the team responded with a strong effort. What was even more impressive about our score tonight is the fact that we were able to do it without Suzanne Sears in the lineup.''
The Gym Dogs were led on the evening by freshmen Cory Fritzinger and Marline Stephens and senior Kristi Lichey. All three gymnasts turned in strong performances on three events, however each gymnast would also encounter a fall. Lichey finished in third place in the all-around (39.2) and second place in the vault; Fritzinger finished tied for first on bars and third on vault; and Stephens took top honors on floor with the first perfect 10.0 of her career.
Georgia got the evening off to a good start, scoring a 49.5 on the uneven bars, which represented its second highest score of the year in the event. The Gym Dogs were paced in the event by freshmen Chelsa Byrd and Fritzinger, who each scored a 9.925 to tie for first place in the competition. Senior Kathleen Shrieves added a third-place 9.9, while Lichey and freshman Marline Stephens each recorded a 9.875.
The Gym Dogs did not miss a beat in the second rotation, scoring a 49.3 in vaulting. Byrd led the Gym Dogs with a first-place 9.95. It marked the first time in her career that she finished in first place in the event. Right behind Byrd was Lichey, who finished second with a 9.925 followed by Stephens, who scored a 9.9.
Even though they were without the services of Sears the Gym Dogs excelled on the floor exercise, scoring a 49.575. In an ironic twist Stephens scored a perfect 10.0, the first of her career, to lead the Gym Dogs. Stephens competed in the sixth spot on floor which is normally occupied by Sears. Combined with Sears' three consecutive 10s the previous three weeks, Stephens' perfect score marks the fourth consecutive meet that a Georgia gymnast has scored a perfect 10.0 on floor.
Other highlights for Georgia on floor included a 9.95 from Fritzinger and a 9.85 for freshman Loren Simpson, which tied the career high for both gymnasts, and a 9.9 by Lichey.
Stephens' 10.0 on floor was the first for a Georgia freshman since Karin Lichey scored one vs. Kentucky in 1996 and the first 10.0 on the road since Lichey scored a 10.0 on bars at Kentucky March 5, 1999.
The Gym Dogs were on their way to their highest score of the year until they got to the balance beam where a pair of falls only allowed them to score a 48.95. Georgia was led in the event by Stephens, whose career-high 9.95 enabled her to capture first place in the event.
Georgia returns to competition on Sunday when it faces top-ranked UCLA at 5 p.m. ET in Los Angeles.

Payday Loan Eligibility Phone Number
Sometimes, we all need some help. If you truly need money and payday is a week or two away, consider getting a payday loan. Although their public image just isn't great, Payday Loan Eligibility Phone Number can be nothing less than salvation for many cash-strapped borrowers. Keep reading to learn more information.
If you're getting a payday loan, know that this is essentially your next paycheck. Since the subsequent paycheck is going to be used to repay the loan, the funds need to last for the next two pay periods. Not considering this before out a payday loan can be detrimental to your future funds.
Ask about any hidden charges. You have no idea that of a company is going to be charging you unless you're communicating with them and have a good comprehension of what you're doing. In many cases, people turn out not knowing every one of the fees and still have to pay back more then they originally thought. Ask questions, read all forms and disclosures, and steer clear of being cheated.
Many payday cash lenders will advertise that they will not reject your application due to your credit standing. Many times, this is right. However, make sure you look into the interest, they are charging you. The interest rates will change according to your credit rating. If your credit standing is bad, plan for a higher interest.
When you find the best payday loan company, stay with them. Make it your goals to build a reputation successful loans, and repayments. By doing this, you could possibly become qualified to apply for bigger loans in the future with this company. They may be more ready to work with you, during times of real struggle.
Are you in need of quick cash? Are your bills beginning to pile up as it's becoming harder to keep up? A payday loan could be your only choice. If you are thinking of a pay day loan, make sure you get all of the facts you will need. This article will give you some great information on what to expect from a payday loan.
There is an abundance of pay day loan companies that are needing to loan serious cash. If this type of loan should be used, ensure you review the lender's history before proceeding. Find out if others experienced good experiences using them. A quick online search can show you customer reviews and complaints.
When you get your first payday loan, ask for a rebate. Most pay day loan offices give you a fee or rate discount for first-time borrowers. If the place you desire to borrow from does not provide a discount, call around. If you find a rebate elsewhere, the money place, you want to visit will most likely match it to get your business.
Be aware from the deceiving rates you are presented. It may seem to become affordable and acceptable to get charged 15 dollars for each one-hundred you borrow, but it will quickly add together. The rates will translate being about 390 percent from the amount borrowed. Know exactly the amount you will be needed to pay in fees and interest beforehand.
If you want to find a cheap payday loan, try to locate one that comes completely from a lender. Indirect loans have considerably higher fees given that they add on fees by themselves.

Financial Management Assistance
A member of the Chapter Financial Management Committee is assigned to work on budgeting and reporting issues with each colony's Treasurer and Financial Advisor.
New Member Assistance
During the colonization process, National Officers introduce new members to ZTA's Fraternity Education and scholarship programs, financial obligations, risk management issues and strong sisterhood.
Leadership Development Assistance
Traveling Leadership Consultants provide training and guidance for new chapter officers and advisors. National Leadership Conference (held in odd years) and International Convention (held in even years) provide national leadership development resources for collegians and advisors.
Housing Assistance
Should there be an opportunity for Greek housing on campus, our ZTA chapter would have the full support of our Fraternity Housing Corporation (FHC). The FHC provides all necessary funding to make ZTA housing safe, secure and competitive for its member associations. ZTA chapters do not fundraise for housing.
Recruitment Assistance
New ZTA colonies receive assistance from our Extension Director, our National Panhellenic Delegate, its DNCH and TLCs.

Leli Pedro, assistant professor, College of Nursing:
"Inadequate numbers of minority nurses directly influence the nursing profession, the education of future professionals and the quality of health care. With increasing diversity in the population, health care issues become more complex. Representation of ethnic minority nurses is critical for quality care in serving diverse populations."
The College of Nursing at the University of Colorado exists to educate students, to pursue new knowledge to improve the health of individuals, families, and communities and to provide clinical care and service to patients and the greater community of Colorado. Within the college are students who are learners, faculty and staff who are employees, knowledgeable within their areas of expertise; each one interfacing with one another in a complex gestalt of interactions.
Diversity informs the research and scholarship agenda. Diversity is critical to the student experience and to the practice of nursing. The incorporation of a multi-culturally oriented curriculum is vital in an era of demographic change such as we are experiencing in the United States at this time. An environment that is welcoming to all who come here to learn, to teach and to work is a key component to all aspects of creating a diverse college.
The faculty, staff and administration of the College of Nursing believe that professional schools have an obligation to society to prepare professionals who can care for the diverse populations that exist within our nation. This can be accomplished by exposing our students and staff to a diverse group of individuals and ideas. The college aspires to be a leader in creating a diverse and multicultural community, serving as a model for other schools of nursing at large.
Many factors are important when considering the question – why diversity? Among them is the influence of diversity or the lack of it on the education of students, the work of faculty and staff and the quality of clinical care. In the American Academy of Nursing-sponsored monograph, Cultural Diversity in Nursing: Issues, Strategies, and Outcomes, Beverly Malone (Malone, 1997) writes that diversity in nursing is a moral imperative: it is the right thing to do. Including nurses from a variety of backgrounds is just, and providing safe and comprehensive care across a populace of demographic and behavioral variability is the central aim of the profession. A second reason behind the movement to discuss and address diversity in nursing is the nature of the existing nursing workforce. Workforce diversity is viewed as a successful business strategy to unlatch the doors of organizational entry that once barred the perspectives and participation of nurses of different races, ethnicities and genders. Especially in times of a nursing shortage, drawing ability and participation from all segments of the prospective workforce strengthens the workforce numerically and in the capacity to provide nursing care across the spectrum of patients. A third reason to support diversity in nursing is that nurses of any and all backgrounds care for a diverse populace. "Valuing diversity means being responsive to a wide range of people unlike oneself" (Carnevale & Stone, 1994 and Malone, 1997).
The practice of nursing, like that of dentistry, medicine and pharmacy, occurs in the world where there is substantial diversity of populations to be served by the college. This includes Colorado, which becomes more diverse with each decade. It is important that students be educated to practice within such a diverse community and that diverse students be admitted to achieve this goal. An important learning tool is for students of diverse cultures to be included so that they can share their rich and different experiences. Students, faculty and staff benefit when they can have in their everyday environment those who represent the rich and diverse cultures of Colorado.
Students look to faculty as educators and role models. In this regard there should be faculty who represent the differences of people who are recipients of health care and learners who wish to serve them. As much as a health professional's education occurs by students learning from their teachers and researchers who pursue new knowledge, faculty members also serve as important models of expert clinical practice. Faculty members who are representative of diverse cultures are necessary to mentor students in providing culturally-competent care.
The extent to which individuals who are recipients of clinical care find the care provided as acceptable can be influenced by the understanding conveyed by the provider of the recipient's care. Some people prefer to receive care from providers of the same gender or from nurses who are from or clearly knowledgeable about their culture. Studies on this topic are summarized in the Institute of Medicine's (IOM) report, In the Nation's Compelling Interest: Ensuring Diversity in the Health Care Workforce, which highlights the importance of ensuring a workforce which focuses on the disparities of outcomes of health care delivery as it is currently constituted (In the Nation's Compelling Interest: Ensuring Diversity in the Health Care Workforce, 2004). Diversity among nursing faculty clinicians and the education of diverse students enhances the diversity of the future health care workforce. This in turn may help eliminate the disparities in the provision of health care services that occur today among racial and ethnic minorities.

You have no idea what I believe other than what you try to comprehend on a public forum. I know unions inside and out - working in the automotive industry for 20 years kinda' gives you a unique education.<quoted text>Thats right... BASH the Unions. THATS what cons do.
Unions killed Detroit - witness engine plants attaching $1,000 bills to each engine that goes out the door. Nothing I would drive is worth an $85 per hour assembler. Those idiots aren't even worth half that much. Ask someone other than me that's worked in an automotive assembly plant - they'll tell you the same thing.
I've worked for unions - and have seen them from the other side in management. I have yet to experience anything good with them. I liken them to the NRA - big, fat, expensive lobby for the 'tards.

Image: VH Audio Pulsar Ag solid core silver 75 Ohm S/PDIF digital coaxial cable terminated with WBT-0102 Ag NextGen Silver rca connectors; DIY Oyaide FTVS-510 solid core silver 75 Ohm S/PDIF digital coaxial cable terminated with Jelco RCA PP-42 rca connectors; Highwire Audio All Clear RFI Coils.
After both successful and not so successful experimentation with Highwire Audio Power Wraps when placed on AC power cords, DC umbilical, digital coaxial cables, and CATV coaxial cables, a pair of Highwire Audio All Clear RFI coils intended for line-level interconnect cable applications were next in line to try. The first All Clear evaluation with a pair of DIY unshielded interconnects resulted in a slightly lowered noise floor in the manner of a decreased level of haze from top to bottom with no discernible sonic artifacts nor tonality changes produced as audible side effects when the coils were positioned dead-center of the cables. IME, in all applications I've tried, both the Power Wrap and the All Clear present the most neutrally transparent effect when they are positioned dead-center of a cable rather than trying to tune the effect via off-center placement of the device, in one direction or the other. YMMV
Highwire Audio All Clear RFI Coils when positioned on digital coaxial cables:
One of my not so successful experiments with a Highwire Audio Power Wrap (0.375" diameter version) when placed on various digital cables resulted in a somewhat sterile sounding affectation which at best came across as too much of a good thing, and thus unacceptable to my ear. When a shorter-length All Clear RFI Coil is positioned on each of the two digital coaxial cables for the digital front end of my main audio system, the effect is much more natural sounding, again resulting in a subjectively lowered noise floor in the manner of a slightly decreased level of haze from top to bottom, with no sonic caveat like that of what the longer-length Power Wrap presented.
IME, while producing none of the undesirable effects of a ferrite bead, the shorter-length Highwire Audio All Clear is a better option than the longer-length Power Wrap that Highwire recommends for a digital coaxial cable application. YMMV
Additionally, since I don't use USB for computer audio, I can't experiment with either Highwire product for that application. It would be very interesting to find out what folks might hear when a Highwire Audio Power Wrap or All Clear is placed on a USB cable for an audio application within a noisy computer environment.

GDP per capita (2011): US $ 2,374
Economy – Overview:
Following an economic crisis during the early 1980s, reforms spurred private investment, stimulated economic growth, and cut poverty rates in the 1990s. In 2005, the government passed a hydrocarbons law that imposed significantly higher royalties and required foreign firms then operating under risk-sharing contracts to surrender all production to the state energy company in exchange for a predetermined service fee. After higher prices for mining and hydrocarbons exports produced a fiscal surplus in 2008, the global recession in 2009 slowed growth. Nevertheless, Bolivia recorded the highest growth rate in South America that year. During 2010-12 high world commodity prices sustained rapid growth and large trade surpluses.

The senior and four-year starter with a host of honors to his name — All-Ivy League, New England Player of the Year and preseason honorable mention All-American heading into 2012 — faces new challenges this year. With brother Brendan's departure after 2010 and Brian Douglass after 2011, Gibson's now lead dog for Yale's attack. Here he talks about the stick he'll use to help his squad to the NCAA Tournament.
I use a black Warrior Noz these days. It's pretty light and has a cool texture, so I've had one since sophomore year.
I use a mesh pocket; it's always worked for my passing game and I've never tried any other type. My brother Brendan always strung my sticks, but he graduated in 2010 so I turned to Steve McLachlan, our team's logistical tailgate wizard and stick doctor. Since I like passing a lot, my pocket's pretty high —its depth verges on legality. I usually give the back of the head a good slap against my chest after goals to force the pocket to shrink, a nice little trick among salty veterans.
I use three strings straight across and tied around the plastic itself. Going around the plastic holds the strings in place and keeps the hold consistent forever. My whip's probably around a 3 or 4. Other people have a lot of trouble shooting with my stick, but I've gotten used to it.
Last year I used a black Warrior Gnar for its cool name, but I've moved on to a black Kryptolite for the upcoming season.
I tape almost the entire stick and use a knoblike butt end. I always use black tape because it makes you look barbaric.
I hit myself in the back of the head with my butt end after offensive possessions, whether they end in a goal or turnover. It's a reset ritual for me to start thinking about the next play.

Check the price before downloading if intersted, they change the prices during the day or within a few days from $0.00 to whatever the regular price is. Product Description The powerful quilts of Harriet Powers (1837-1910), a former Athens, Georgia slave, continue to capture our imagination today. Her two-known creations, the Bible Quilt and the Pictorial Quilt, have independently survived since stitched more than a century ago. Over the years, thousands of museum visitors to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C. and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston have stood transfixed viewing her artwork. Powers' two quilts are arguably the most well-known and cited coverings in American quilt history. But, until today, no one has told the entire, dramatic story of how these two quilts, one of which initially sold for $5, were coveted, cared for, and cherished for decades in private homes before emerging as priceless, national treasures. This I Accomplish: Harriet Powers' Bible Quilt and Other Pieces brings to light new, exciting facts - many never before published: complete exhibition history for both known quilts; proof Harriet Powers was a literate, award-winning quilter, who stitched at least five quilts and promoted her own artwork; profiles of the two nineteenth century women who sought to purchase the Bible Quilt; profiles of the three men who once owned the Pictorial Quilt; unveiling of a young artist who embellished the Pictorial Quilt; and the name of the person who first made the connection in the twentieth century that Harriet Powers stitched both quilts. This I Accomplish: Harriet Powers' Bible Quilt and Other Pieces is the most comprehensive resource guide on this influential African American quilter. The book includes nearly 200 bibliographic references, most annotative, including books, exhibition catalogs, newspapers, plays, poetry, interactive map and more. For the first time ever, readers are provided with clues and encouraged to search for Harriet Powers' lost 1882 Lord's Supper Quilt. This I Accomplish: Harriet Powers' Bible Quilt and Other Pieces is written by Kyra E. Hicks, a quilter whose story quilts have appeared in over forty group exhibitions in places such as the Fenimore Art Museum in Cooperstown, NY, the Renwick Gallery in Washington, D.C., and the American Folk Art Museum in NY. Hicks is the author of Black Threads: An African American Quilting Sourcebook and Martha Ann's Quilt for Queen Victoria. She lives in Arlington, Virginia. About the Author Kyra E. Hicks is a marketing professional and quilter. She was so mesmerized after seeing Eva Ungar Grudin's 1990 exhibition, "Stitching Memories: African-American Story Quilts," that she began to teach herself to create her own quilts. "I found my voice that afternoon in the museum," she remembers. Today, Kyra's quilts have been included in more than forty exhibitions in venues such as the American Craft Museum in New York, the Renwick Gallery in Washington, D.C., and the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum in Hartford. She hosts the African American quilting news blog, Black Threads. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is only a selection of 20 or so individual readings. At the time of this recording, earthquakes are ongoing and there have been almost 40 in the past 8 hours. Tectonic is a realtime seismic analysis and sound synthesis system. Sound is created in realtime by earthquakes as they occur across the globe. A tightly integrated system between Max/MSP, Google Earth and Symbolic Sound's Kyma processes earthquake data that is translated into sound synthesis parameters. A USGS XML feed is parsed into numerous fields including magnitude, elevation, time of day and geographical coordinates. These data are mapped to synthetic spectrums and processed by granular, aggregate and subtractive synthesis.

Mpumalanga protesters set fire to bus
14:48 27/08/2014
Johannesburg - A group of protesters set fire to a bus when they barricaded the N4 near Witbank on Wednesday, Mpumalanga police said.
- Were you there? Send us your eyewitness accounts and photos.
They barricaded the Vosman and Wakefield street intersection at around 06:00, Brigadier Selvy Mohlala said.
Two cars were damaged when the group threw stones at passing vehicles.
Police dispersed the group and the road was cleared.
No injuries were reported and no arrests made.
Mohlala was unable to provide a reason for the protest.
"Police will continue monitoring the situation," he said.

Just another day in Africa! I vote for you then you don't deliver, then I burn someone else's property, then you promise, I vote for you again, then you don't deliver, I burn more things, then the government blames apartheid! You agree and vote again, no delivery and the same crap carries on from election to election. You get what you vote for!! You voted for Zuma. It is his turn together with his merry men who must first satisfy their own greed. To hell with the people. If you want to burn something start with Nkandla. At least they can check whether the fire pool is effective. Dumb asses!

Setting a bus alight. Protesting, throwing stones. I have seen better behaviour amongst a group of rabid dogs. We want, give me. It is fair to say that the government has not met their commitment to the nation, and the nation has a right to be angry, but outbacker behaviour is not going to solve anything. It is only going to heighten the aggravation and lead to worse things.

Pittsburgh Irish & Classical Theatre has unmasked its 2013 season, featuring the return of David Whalen and Martin Giles as literature's most famous crime-solving duo in the thriller "Sherlock Holmes and the Crucifer of Blood."
Messrs. Whalen and Giles portrayed Holmes and Dr. Watson during the 2012 holiday season in PICT's "Mask of Moriarity," the highest-grossing production in the company's 16-year history. The actors, each a Performer of the Year for the Post-Gazette, are currently onstage as various characters in the company's Chekhov Celebration.
Other events on next year's schedule with a link to the recent past include Oscar Wilde's "Lady Windermere's Fan," in a new production by PICT resident director Alan Stanford, who led the all-male "The Importance of Being Earnest" in 2012. Also, the work of Irish playwright Martin McDonagh ("The Lieutenant of Inishmore") returns to the PICT stage with the graveyard humor of "A Skull in Connemara."
The season will open in April with the Pittsburgh premiere of "Our Class" by Polish playwright Tadeusz Slobodzianek. The play is inspired by the Jan Gross book "Neighbors," which begins in 1925 Poland with Jewish and Catholic school children expressing their hopes for the future. They later face the harsh realities of invading Soviets and Nazis.
Next, Richard McMillan, winner of seven DORA Awards (Canada's Tony), returns to PICT to lead the cast of "The Kreutzer Sonata," Irish playwright Nancy Harris' adaptation of Leo Tolstoy's novella, which was inspired by the music of Beethoven.
PICT also presents the American premiere of "Don Juan Comes Back From the War," Duncan Macmillan's adaptation of the play by German Odon Von Horvath.
The PICT 2013 schedule
April 10-May 4: "Our Class," a new English version by Ryan Craig. The 2010 winner of Poland's top literary prize is presented in association with The Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh. (Henry Heymann Theatre)
May 30-June 22: "The Kreutzer Sonata" takes its title from Beethoven's sonata for piano and violin and features music performed by members of the company. (Henry Heymann Theatre)
July 11-27: "Lady Windermere's Fan": Set in the drawing rooms of high society, Lady Windermere suspects her husband of infidelity and decides to strike back with her own unfaithfulness. Nike Doukas returns to PICT as the disreputable Mrs. Erlynne. (Charity Randall Theatre)
Aug. 8-31: "Don Juan Comes Back From the War": Mr. Whalen portrays the world's greatest lover as a middle-aged veteran torn between the lothario he was, the man he has become and the crumbling world he returns to. (Henry Heymann Theatre)
Sept. 11-28: "A Skull in Connemara": PICT's long association with the works of Mr. McDonagh continues with the last of his Irish-set plays to be performed in Pittsburgh. In the play, we meet Mick Dowd, who each autumn is hired to disinter bones in sections of his local cemetery, to make way for new arrivals. At a time when he must dig up the bones of his late wife, rumors regarding his involvement in her death resurface. (Charity Randall Theatre)
Dec. 4-21: "Sherlock Holmes and the Crucifer of Blood." In Paul Giovanni's take on the Arthur Conan Doyle tales, two murders and a treasure chest filled with jewels lead to a worthy mystery for the team of Holmes and Watson. (Charity Randall Theatre)

When China launches ambitious projects to conquer nature and astound the world, people always get in the way.
Sometimes it's a few dozen people; often it's thousands or even millions.
In the country's headlong drive toward development, moving large numbers of people quickly and often painfully goes hand in hand with building the world's biggest dam, the longest stretch of high-speed rail, even re-shaping whole cities.
In the best-case situations, those who get moved end up with nicer homes, indoor plumbing, access to services and cleaner living conditions. The dark side is that frequently the relocated become internal migrants mired in debt, without farmland or income.Sponsored Ads
Initially, some resettled farmers could be found along the river happy
about getting newer, nicer homes mostly paid for by the government. The
system broke down quickly, however, and vast sums of the money meant to
re-home people whose farms and houses were flooded was embezzled by
government officials. By the end of the resettlement project, complaints
and petitioners were everywhere.

Third, the projects threaten to replicate in international rivers the degradation haunting China's internal rivers.

Iran's 20 Percent Enrichment
In an interview
with the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) published August 30, head
of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization (AEOI), Fereydoun Abbasi-Davani,
announced that Iran would never halt its domestic production of 20
percent enriched uranium. Agence France Presse reported
on its apparent translation of the interview and added that
Abbasi-Davani said Iran is no longer interested in a fuel swap deal and
would rather become a supplier of 20 percent enriched uranium. IRNA
reports on Abbasi-Davani's fuel swap comments in a separate story.
This latter statement would seem as though Abbasi-Davani wants to close
the door on any prospect for a diplomatic deal that would remove 20
percent uranium from Iran for further fabrication into fuel elements for
the TRR in a third party country. This effort could be important to
build international confidence in the peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear
Abbasi-Davani told IRNA that Iran has stockpiles of 20 percent material
that "already exceed[s] the required amount for the TRR [Tehran Research
Reactor]." He also said that Iran requires a growing stockpile in case
"if in the process of production our system would be damaged, or would
be in need of repairs…" This comment is ambiguous but would seem to
imply either recognition of possible production problems or Iran's
continued concern about its enrichment facilities being bombed.
Abbasi-Davani noted that Iran made the decision to move 20 percent
enrichment to its fortified and once secret Fordow enrichment plant
"because the enrichment facilities at Natanz were not safe…" and
"security measures required that the sensitive part of the facilities
would be transferred to underground buildings." ISIS continues to
assess that Iran has no logical need for large stockpiles of 20 percent
enriched uranium and that having such a large stockpile on hand and
located within a fortified structure is more suited toward planning for
the contingency of a breakout to nuclear weapons.
Abbasi-Davani iterated that Iran will continue its planned expansion at
Natanz and finish relocating all 20 percent enrichment at Fordow and
added that Iran has no intentions or plans to enrich uranium beyond 20
percent. Abbasi-Davani told IRNA that during the recent visit
of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Deputy Director and Head
of Safeguards Herman Nackaerts, the IAEA was "informed of the research
done on production of the new generation of Iran's centrifuges and the
inspectors were familiarized with the activities and amount of progress
in that respect." The IAEA has yet to comment on the details of
Nackaert's visit but may provide more information in its upcoming
safeguards report on Iran, which is currently planned for release on
September 2.
Additionally, AFP quotes
Abbasi-Davani as saying that Iran has no plans to build new enrichment
sites during the next two years. This quote is not in the English
version ISIS obtained and ISIS could not locate it in any other IRNA
story. Iran does not provide the IAEA with advanced notice of
construction plans for enrichment plants, so verifying such a claim is
European Missile Defense: By 2020 This Theatens a Nuclear Arms Race
Currently, Russia is threatening an arms race with NATO (US) over a European missile defense system. Russia claims it is a threat to their nuclear arsenal. Experts agree that it is not a threat to the Russian nuclear arsenal, but it could be at some future date.
What if Russia does not have the capacity to build enough nuclear weapons to counter NATO? Russia is falling apart, and it's not clear if it will be able to enter an arms race with NATO by 2020.
Could this issue be enough to start a war between Russia and the US?
"I am not satisfied with the American side's reaction to my proposals and with NATO's reaction in general," the Russian leader told reporters at the conclusion of the French summit. "Why? Because we are wasting time. Even though I spoke about the year 2020 yesterday as a deadline…which is the year when the construction of a four-stage system of the so-called adaptive approach ends."
The Russian leader warned the situation had the potential to escalate into a full-blown arms race unless the sides reached an acceptable agreement.
"After 2020, if we do not come to terms, a real arms race will begin,"Medvedev warned.

2 switches , one light problem
My wife and I just bought a 20 year old house. We are having a problem with the hall light. When we turn the light on at the top of the stairs and then go down and turn it off at the bottom, the bottom switch does not work. The switch does however work if we did not use the one at the top of the stairs. We also have the same problem with our kitchen as we have 2 entries and one light. They just don't seem to work the way we need them to. Any ideas ? Could it be a switch or wiring problem ?
Thanks you for your time, Ric
The wrong wrie is on the common screw of one or both of the three way switches. If you can tell us which wires from which cables are connected to which screws on the switches we can probably help you figure this out.
DO NOT tell us upper left, lower right etc. That means nothing. The common screw will be black or marked common.
Here are a bunch of three way wiring schemes. There are several different ways to do it. All of them are correct.
Hey Joed,
Thanks for the info, I'll check things out when I get home tonight

Securing My Router
Hi. I recently made a big balls up by announcing to the world that my (apartment block's) router, an 827H, was completely unsecured. I have since removed the default users and passwords and changed the admin/enable password.
Question is what else do I have to do to secure this thing?
Also, I am concerned that it may have already been compromised. Who knows how long it has been unsecure, and my announcement of the fact probably didnt help. Is there any way to check if anything malicious has been done to it?
Total noob at this, so details would help.

Satterwhite Comes Up Big In Bearcats' Win Over Raiders
March 29, 2007
CINCINNATI, Ohio---Often times in team sports, players are rewarded for great defensive efforts by making a play on the offensive side soon after. Such was the case on Wednesday night for University of Cincinnati junior Cameron Satterwhite as his outfield assist and go-ahead homer helped the Bearcats clinch a 9-5 win over Wright State.
In the top of the sixth inning with the score knotted at five, UC appeared to be out of the inning when Nick Allsop chopped a grounder to Adam Yeager. Yeager's flip to second for a force out went wide of the bag, but an alert Satterwhite backed up the play and ultimately threw Ryan Shoup out at the plate to stop the go-ahead run from scoring. On the game's very next pitch in the bottom of the inning, Satterwhite ripped Chris Nighland's first offering deep over the left centerfield wall to put the Bearcats in front to stay.
Satterwhite's heroics were part of a good offensive night for the Bearcats (13-11) as the hosts banged out 12 hits. Adam Yeager matched his career-high with three hits, while three other players added two apiece. Tony Campana scored three of UC's nine runs, while Josh Harrison drove in two.
The night got off to a shaky start for Cincinnati and starting pitcher John Baird as an RBI single by Justin Parker and a two-run bomb by Casey McGrew pushed the Raiders to a 3-0 first inning lead. UC would get one of the markers back in the bottom of the inning, taking advantage of an error and three walks by pitcher Jordan Wolfe.
In the third, the Raiders (10-9) went up 4-1, loading the bases with one out and scoring on a McGrew sacrifice fly. Baird was able to work his way out of the inning when Aaron Fields grounded out.
The Bearcats made a charge to tie the game in their half of the third, stringing together two walks and three straight singles, including RBI knocks by Neall French and Yeager. Jamel Scott then tied the game with an RBI fielder's choice.
Cincinnati took its first lead one inning later when Harrison knocked in Campana with a sac fly after the latter tripled to right center. The see-saw battle continued into the sixth when Parker tied the game, scoring on a wild pitch. Further damage was halted when Satterwhite made his throw to the plate.
Satterwhite's longball was just the beginning of the Bearcats' offense in the inning as UC went up 8-5 with three key runs. Harrison made it a two-run game when he singled home Ryan Baker, but an aggressive play to stretch it into a double resulted in the former being gunned down at second. Campana pushed the Bearcat lead to 8-5 when he scored on a balk. One inning later, the hosts wrapped up the night's scoring as a Baker single scored Yeager.
A key to the Bearcats' victory was holding Wright State's leading hitter Ross Oeder hitless. After entering the game hitting .465, four UC hurlers held the senior to a 0-for-3 night. Parker led the Raider offense with two hits, while McGrew drove in three. Despite uncorking the wild pitch that tied the game, Jake Geglein got his first win of the year after pitching 1.1 hitless innings. Adam Calez and Evan Sanford worked the final two frames in scoreless fashion. Nighland (0-1), the four of six Wright State pitchers, took the loss after allowing four runs and five hits in 2.1 innings of work.
The Bearcats are back on the road this weekend, traveling to Georgetown for a three-game series. The set gets underway on Friday with a 3 p.m. first pitch at Shirley Povich Field.

DOJ Threatens Apple, Book Publishers with Lawsuit Regarding E-Book Sales
Tiffany Kaiser
March 8, 2012 9:55 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Apple and five book publishers were using an agency sales model that raised the prices of e-books
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is planning to launch a lawsuit against Apple and five U.S. publishers for allegedly conspiring to raise e-book prices through an agency sales model.
Last December, the
European Commission opened a formal antitrust investigation
into whether five international e-book publishers had been practicing anti-competitive tactics with the help of Apple and its e-book store iBooks. Shortly after, the U.S. Justice Department climbed aboard the investigation as well.
After investigating the suspicious tactics, the DOJ has now warned Apple and the five book publishers that it plans to sue them for raising the prices of e-books. The five book publishers involved are
Hachette Livre (Lagardère Publishing France), Harper Collins (News Corp., U.S.A.), Simon & Schuster (CBS Corp., U.S.A.), Penguin (Pearson Group, United Kingdom) and Verlagsgruppe Georg von Holzbrinck (owner of inter alia Macmillan, Germany).
Traditionally, publishers sell physical books to retailers for about half of the cover price, which is considered a wholesale model. Retailers then had the power to sell those books to customers for a lower price if they wanted to.
However, the e-book industry rocked this model and rubbed publishers the wrong way. Amazon started selling best sellers for as low as $9.99 in an effort to encourage Kindle sales. When Apple came along with iBooks, publishers were worried that the tech giant would take over the book industry the way it did the music industry with iTunes.
Apple then struck a deal with publishers in 2010, where they'd settle on an agency model instead. The agency model allowed publishers to set the price of the book and Apple would receive a 30 percent cut. However, publishers were not allowed to let rivals sell
the same book
for a lower price.
According to the DOJ, Apple and the five publishers did this to raise the prices of e-books, which violates federal antitrust laws. The publishers reacted to these claims, saying that the agency model was used to "enhance" competition in the e-book industry by helping e-book sellers to make some money out of the deal.
The DOJ isn't buying this excuse, though. The government is wondering how competition could have increased when prices were increasing.
Apple, the publishers and the DOJ are currently in talks regarding e-book prices. While the DOJ warned Apple and the publishers that it plans to sue them for allegedly conspiring to raise prices, some publishing executives associated with the talks have said that a settlement is being considered. Some solutions that have been passed around included the idea to keep the agency model, but allow booksellers to offer some discounts.
Apple has jumped heavily into the
book selling and publishing business
with the recent launch of iBooks 2, which is the sequel to the iBooks app that provides students with books they need as well as study features, and iBook Author, which is Mac software that allows textbook writers and publishers to create textbooks for the iPad.
Undoubtedly, e-books are an essential part of the iPad experience, and with the announcement of
the iPad 3 release
just yesterday, Apple likely wants to get this DOJ business figured out quickly.
