A great way to improve the entrance of any home is by using potted color, and New Guinea impatiens are a wonderful choice when used in pots and hanging baskets. Although they are relatively easy to grow there are some useful tips for ensuring you have the healthiest and most colourful plants.
New Guinea impatiens provide colour all year round, not just from their vibrant flowers in shades of pink, orange, cerise, red, maroon, magenta, pure white and bicolor, but also from the exotic foliage that some varieties produce. They look great either mixed and matched, or grown in a mass display of single colours.
For the best results, New Guinea impatiens need a good quality potting mix, regular watering and a fortnightly application of soluble fertiliser.
When planting into pots and baskets, select a container that allows room for a good root system to develop, and use a top quality and moisture-retentive potting mix such as Searles® Peat 80 Plus.
Containerised plants tend to dry out quickly in hot and windy weather. To ensure your plants do not suffer from moisture stress, water them regularly - in normal conditions about twice a week should suffice, but in extreme weather it may be necessary to water them more frequently. In heatwave conditions New Guinea impatiens sometimes become limp and floppy; if this is the case, a good soak overnight will revive them and restore them to normal vigour by morning.
New Guinea impatiens like a sheltered position away from frost and wind and with some sunlight. If grown in full sun, they'll remain very compact, whereas if they are grown in full shade, they become leggy and won't flower so well. So an ideal spot for them is one with shade and sunlight, such as on verandahs, patios and balconies.
The crowning glory of the remarkable New Guinea impatiens is their beautiful multi-coloured flowers. To promote more abundant and lively blooms, fertilise every two weeks with Searles® Flourish.
After each flush of flowering, cut your plants back to promote a more compact shape and they will reward your efforts by producing even more flowers.
Few pests and diseases attack New Guinea impatience. Problems to watch for are aphids (spray with pyrethrum or hose off with a gentle spray), caterpillars (pick off by hand) and fungal disease, which show as small black spots on the foliage (spray with SeaMax® Fish & Kelp).
So remember this checklist for growing successful impatiens:
Plant into Searles® Peat 80 plus
Water about twice a week
Place them in a sheltered position with some sunlight
Fertilise fortnightly with Searles® Flourish
Check for the occasional infestation of pests and fungal disease
Prune after each flush of flowers to encourage more blooms.
Your home will now be graced with vivid colour, all year round.
Happy Gardening with Searles from the Searle family.

Critic's Corner Tuesday: 'Talent,' 'Middle,' 'Glee Project'
•With America's Got Talent (NBC, 8 ET/PT) returning tonight from its Olympics hiatus, here's a way to improve the show while dampening its current publicity nightmare: Let Sharon Osbourne go now rather than making her wait until the season ends to leave, as she insists she wants to do.
That way, she doesn't have to work for a network she says lied to her son, NBC doesn't have to worry about her on-air attitude, and viewers are spared her performance. It's win/win/win all around.
•The Middle (ABC, 8 ET/PT) said goodbye to the late Francis Bay with this terrific outing built around the family's reaction to Aunt Ginny's funeral.
INTERACTIVE: Read Robert Bianco's chat transcript
While Frankie struggles to celebrate milestones, Brick and Axl (one of the season's best comic pairings) bake a map and Sue has her first brush with young love.
It's worth watching again just to see Frankie and Mike try to decipher the pronouns in Sue's gossip report.
•It's time for The Glee Project (Oxygen, 10 ET/PT) to choose a winner.

Let's hope it chooses more wisely this year than it did last, when Glee had to make room for one contestant who was dull and another who was indecipherable.

Nissan Repair Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
GreetingsCustomerand welcome to JA! I will do my very best to assist you with your problem.
Pull the distributor cap and rotor. Under the rotor you will see a plastic cover,remove the cover and check to see if there is oil under it.IF there is then you need to replace the distributor.This is the cam sensor, and if there is oil in there the sensor can't function properly.Hope this helps!
You can tell me if you have a 4 or 6 cylinder engine in this. Also, ask him if he had to remove any bolts on the "coils" to get to the spark plugs. The 98 altima has a 2.4L 4 cylinder engine. The maxi is a 6 cylinder engine. This was not installed in the factory so if it has the maxi engine,someone has put it in there. Here is the altima engine.
Ok, I think the next step should be checking the ground for the distributor and coil. These are the 2 grounds you can see up by the fuel injector rail. Make sure they are clean and tight.
Also, it is possible the car is flooded. Try holding the gas pedal to the floor while cranking the engine.
Let me know!
well, let me know and we can go from there!
Well, you have to check it while cranking. I think the problem is you will have to use a volt meter or a lab scope because it is the trigger wire. What I mean by that is that it is the wire from the ecm to the distributor that tells the coil to fire. It happens so fast that you can't normally see it with a test light or a voltmeter.
I want to say the car needs a distributor since it is all in one. I suspect there is coil failure. The problem is without being able to test it,I have to assume the rest is working. If the ecm is not telling the distributor to fire, you would have the same result. I think distributor because you did have spark,just weak.
if the transistor for the coil is no good then just replacing the coil isn't going to help.
Here is an website I use for used parts. Works pretty good. You just fill in your information and salvage yards around the us contact you with the pricing.
I have had good luck with these guys.

A man who climbed into bed with a woman and sexually assaulted her after a night out celebrating his birthday has a ''predilection to anti-social behaviour'', a court was told.
Daniel Lewis Buda-Kaa already had a string of burglary convictions and had been paroled only two days before he climbed into the bed of the half-asleep woman at 5.45am in May 2011, touched her indecently and sexually assaulted her.
In July, an ACT Supreme Court jury found Buda-Kaa guilty of sexual intercourse without consent and two counts of committing acts of indecency without consent.
At a sentencing hearing on Friday, the Crown urged Justice John Burns to sentence the 23-year-old to a period of imprisonment.
The Crown said the assault was a ''gross breach of trust'' as the woman was a family friend.
But the defence said Buda-Kaa, a paranoid schizophrenic, should not be jailed as imprisonment had affected his well-being.
Buda-Kaa's legal team argued that their client had suffered auditory hallucinations and a catatonic state while in custody.
During the trial the court heard that the half-asleep victim had turned over in bed when Buda-Kaa came into her bedroom because she thought her young son, who sometimes crawled into bed with her, had entered the room.
She only recognised Buda-Kaa when he spoke to her but did not scream or jump out of bed because she feared for her two children who were also asleep in the house.
The jury heard the woman tried to stay calm and keep Buda-Kaa away from her.
She managed to get out of bed and phoned her brother, who contacted police.
The Hughes man had fallen asleep by the time police had arrived.
The Crown on Friday read a victim impact statement that said the woman had suffered mental and physical illness since the assault.
The court heard the victim's children had also suffered stress-related illnesses and the family had moved house as a result of the attack.
Justice Burns will sentence Buda-Kaa next Friday.
The defendant remains in protective custody.

If you're not afraid of your users, you should be, concludes a study by iYogi. No, wait, that's what I concluded after reading the press release about iYogi's Windows 7 research project.
According to the press release, iYogi tracked "tens of thousands of online conversations around the subject of Microsoft Windows 7" to determine what issues users were facing leading up to the Windows 7 launch. iYogi reviewed discussions in ten widely used online forums, including MSDN, Yahoo Groups, Google Groups, and Google blog search; 25 review sites like Amazon, BestBuy, epinions, and newegg; and social networking sites Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, and Twitter.
What gems did all this tracking reveal?
iYogi says that their tracking efforts found that "application compatibility, migration and new features,' were the most-duscussed topics. I say it revealed that users really don't know much about Windows 7.
Here, without further ado, are the top 10 issues, along with actual user quotes:
1. Application compatibility, portability and migration "Do I need to re-install Microsoft Office when I upgrade to Windows 7?"
2. New Features "Does Windows 7 have the functionality of XP and appearance of Vista?" and "What's new with the Windows 7 task bar?"
3. Performance "Is Windows 7 faster that XP or Vista?"
4. Getting ready for windows 7 "Is my computer ready for Windows 7 and is it good for running games?"
5. User interface "Does Windows 7 look and feel like Mac?"
6. Windows 7 Networking "Can I connect with my second computer that runs XP and also share my printer?"
7. Windows 7 hardware compatibility "Will I need to re-install software again for my camera and phone?"
8. Windows 7 Installation, setup and deployment "How much time will it take me to install Windows 7?"
9. Price "Will the price for Windows 7 drop in the future?"
10. Media center "Can I make videos and does 7 have movie maker like XP?"
Oh, and one more tidbit from the press release:
Polls conducted by iYogi have indicated that nearly 70 percent of users are not entirely comfortable that they will be able to easily move their favorite applications over to the new Windows 7 platform, and nearly half expect to need more tech support help in order to do so.
Think your users are smarter than this? Or more informed than this? Don't be so sure.

Our Mac OS X distributions run on both 10.4 and 10.5. (I use 10.5.) However, as of v372, there was a bug in the way that DrScheme generates stand-alone executables for Mac OS X. I know that it broke the other direction (running 10.5-built things on 10.4), but it's possible that it also sometimes breaks in the direction that you're seeing. You could try dropping http://svn.plt-scheme.org/plt/trunk/collects/compiler/private/mach-o.ss in place of "collects/compiler/private/mach-o.ss" in your installation to see if it fixes the problem.

Published: May 11, 2008 at 6:55 AMCongrats to BttF! Hopefully the parks maintain the new Simpsons ride better. Does anyone know if the show is digital or IMAX film? I'd hate for the film to tear or get damaged because of an underpaid projectionist. I don't know how the ride is run, but if it's film, I'm sure they have someone to monitor the film itself. I can only hope that they use some sort of secured digital file or something like that so there's less moving parts.
The BttF Ride reminds me of Star Tours as it's aging technology and tons of wear and tear on the film and screen.

NEW YORK Supporters of John McCain in South Carolina are describing as "absolutely despicable" a flier -- distributed to the editors of 80 daily and weekly papers in that state, now (for better or worse) made public -- claiming that he turned his back on fellow prisoners of war in Vietnam.
Now it turns out that the man behind it all hails, far from South Carolina, way up north in Rockland county, just north of New York City. And he's promising to carry his campaign to other primary states.
Gannett's Journal News of White Plains in an article last March quoted the man, Jerry Kiley, who lives in the tiny town of Garnerville, as charging that that McCain had turned his back on POWs and their families. He called McCain a traitor to prisoners of war who he believes were left behind in Vietnam. "If he had the power of the presidency, I'd really fear for this country," Kiley said.

|Tyler Cowen.
There are more rich people and more poor people in our country than ever before. That widening gap means dealing with one big, uncomfortable truth: the middle is growing thinner and thinner. Globally renowned economist Tyler Cowen explains how this happened: high earners are taking ever more advantage of computers and achieving ever-better results. Meanwhile, low earners who haven't committed to learning the new technologies have poor prospects. Nearly every business sector relies less and less on manual labor for high-value jobs, and this fact is forever changing the world of work and wages. About 3/4 of the jobs created in the United States since the great recession pay $13.52 an hour or less--there is no longer a steady, secure life somewhere in the middle. Here, Cowen reveals what the new features of this economy mean for taxes, government spending, employee benefits, debt and education. Most importantly, Cowen identifies the best path forward for workers and entrepreneurs and provides readers with a road map to a new economic landscape.--From publisher description.

black autonomy network community organization working for economic and social justice in Benton Harbor, MI ...exposing state and local NAACP corruption
Sign the PETITION

Letter to Amnesty International USA
I want to alert AIUSA of a case that may be of interest to you. I understand that AIUSA is limited in the number and type of cases you can take on, but I hope that you can take a moment to learn about this one. I believe that an activist and civil rights leader is at risk of being framed on false charges, being denied a fair trial, being imprisoned for his political activism rather than valid charges, and facing mistreatment in prison.
The case concerns Rev. Edward Pinkney of Benton Harbor, Michigan. I don't know how familiar you are with Benton Harbor. Visiting there is like stepping back into the pre-civil rights era. There is an extreme racial and economic division between Benton Harbor (95% black, over 50% real unemployment) and neighboring St. Joseph (95% white, 2% unemployment) and an imbalance of power. Frustration with injustices there have sparked periodic race riots over many decades.
Rev. Pinkney has been the most vocal critic of the county's police and judicial systems. He has long maintained that the system is extremely racially biased and politically corrupt. For five years (until January 2005), he maintained a daily vigil at the courthouse, witnessing court whenever it was in session. He organized a weekly march on the courthouse in St. Joseph with local citizens. He founded a community group (BANCO) to organize around these concerns. After the nationally-publicized riots of June 2003 (provoked by an incident involving a police chase and the death of a local black man), Rev. Pinkney and BANCO organized a mass protest march and worked to draw outside attention to not only the issue of police brutality (already well-publicized), but also the racial bias in the judicial system. The history of this struggle can be reviewed in the press releases at BANCO's Web site: http://bhbanco.blogspot.com
In February, BANCO led a successful election to recall a city commissioner (Glen Yarbrough) who supported the former police chief (Sam Harris, who recently resigned in the face of dozens of citizen complaints of police brutality and sexual harassment). In April, the recall vote was overturned and Rev. Pinkney was arrested and charged with four felonies and a misdemeanor, alleging his involvement in alleged election fraud. To date, at least two witnesses have submitted testimony that suggests that Rev. Pinkney is being framed and that the allegations of fraud are false (see here). In light of this testimony, supporters believe the charges should have already been dropped and the recall vote restored.
There is a valid concern that Rev. Pinkney cannot get a fair trial, fair sentencing, or fair treatment in the county where he has been the foremost watchdog and critic of the county's judges, prosecutors, defenders, police, and politicians. Last week, Judge Paul Maloney denied a motion to disqualify himself and other local judges from hearing Rev. Pinkney's case. Judge Maloney claimed that he never noticed his own name and the names of the county's other judges on the signs of BANCO protesters outside the courthouse or on the T-shirt worn by BANCO members. This claim is not very credible and already suggests that Rev. Pinkney will not receive a fair trial from Judge Maloney. The denial of the motion will be appealed.
Raising the profile of this case regionally and nationally would increase the likelihood of a fair trial by a less-biased judge from outside the county. If Rev. Pinkney is sent to prison in Berrien County, I believe it will be because of his political activism. My fear is that in prison he would be in physical danger. Allegations of abuse in the county's prison are many and longstanding and a resident reported being told by a policeman after the Reverend's arrest: "Your voice in this town is gone. Pinkney won't last long in jail." I think these are the sort of human rights abuses that AI has addressed very successfully abroad. Now we're in danger of it happening in our own backyard.
Please consider taking on Rev. Pinkney's case. If that is not possible at this time, please consider at least tracking it as the case goes to trial. There is further background information at BANCO's Web site (see here). You can also contact me or Rev. Pinkney at 269-925-0001 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Thank you very much for your time and attention.

As a former member of Amnesty International I would be ashamed to write or have written a letter in support of a destructive orginization such as BANCO. Working directly with the community in Benton Harbor I have first hand knowledge of the discord caused by the muckraking that Pinkney has done and continues to do.
If BANCO wanted to truly help Benton Harbor more effort would be made not to take money from the city in frivolous recall attempts as the city is nearly in recievership anyway.
I am sure that this post will be removed as it shows a difference of oppinion.
- Jacquelyn said...
Dear Anonymous,
Differences of opinion are welcome here, as long as they are not expressed in offensive language. After all, most of us aspire to live in a democratic society. That's why a recall vote isn't frivolous--it's a legitimate right of the citizens of Benton Harbor. To suggest that citizens should not exercise their right to democratic political participation because it might be too expensive sounds ludicrous to me.
I would hope that you, as a former member of Amnesty International, would be able to distinguish between your political differences with BANCO and the human rights concerns around Rev. Pinkney's case. Everyone is entitled to a fair trial, period.

I guess my opion is, is that if Rev.Pickney would not do criminal acts to get someone out of office he would not have to worry about going to jail. BANCO tries to continually get persons that effectively run the city out of office. If someone supports the police dept or someone that BANCO does not support then they try and ruin them. I find this immature and very shamefull. Does BANCO do anything that supports this city? For example anything for the kids or community I have not seen it. Why is that. Should BANCO get some kids stuff going or throw a party for the community instead of trying to get the citizen's all fired up about things that BANCO can not prove. If you write it then it should be true. Please quit putting in there suspected police brutality or political disasters when in realtiy BANCO has not shown one true thing at all. Let's all grow up and quit living in the 1910 and 1920's this is 2005. Past is the past and I see a bright future. There are some real influential african americans out there that should be recogzied that I have seen. One thing I do not see is BANCO praising them I just BANCO complaing. As for whirlpool they have given and given I do not see where you come from on that one.
- Anonymous said...
I have to agree with Anonymous here. I'll just be Anonymous 2, I guess.
I've only been in Benton Harbor for a year, but I've only heard negative things from BANCO. Are there meetings to improve the city and surrounding area? Or are there only meetings to becry the perceived injustices seen in the county?
I have a bad feeling that Mr. Pinkney is really only in the business of organizing people for his own benefit, not for the benefit of the people of BH. If he was for the people, he would realize that negatives are overcome by positive behavior, not from continued negativity. Rather than see what Whirlpool has done for the community, he'd rather see what they have not done for him personally. That is what I fear.
The thing I would most like explained is how there were nearly as many absentee ballots cast in Yarborough's recall election as in the 2004 national election. The percentage was nearing 50% for the recall and about 2% for the national election. To me, that doesn't make much sense.
- Anonymous said...
I live in Benton Harbor ,Mi.I am a christian psychologist and family counselor.Grace and peace in the name of the LORD.
It is entirely possible that proponents of the recall orchestrated a shrew-but legal campaign by getting enought anti-yarbrough voters to cast absentee ballots,which is more reliable than campaigning in the winter and then trying to get people to the polls on election day.
AFRO-AMERICAN do not go to the polls.When it is cold.just another berrien county witch hunt.
- Anonymous said...
Shrewd? It would be, but he lied to them telling them things about jobs and such if they voted yes.
Sad thing is, the recall would probably have succeeded without his "help".
As for the section of the letter to AI concerning Judge Maloney not being able to try the case properly, who COULD do so when the entire premise of BANCO seems to be down with the establishment?

DENHAM SPRINGS — Denham Springs High School smashed 12 hits and overpowered Northshore 16-6 in a Class 5A regional softball game Friday at North Park.
The Yellow Jackets advanced to the state tournament for the 13th time in school history, including eight of the past 10 seasons.
Northshore took the early lead with two runs in the first inning and the Lady Panthers added four runs in the fifth inning to cut the Denham lead to 14-6 and extend the game.
Northshore was three up and three down in the top of the sixth. Denham went to work in the bottom of the sixth with one out and needing two runs for a 10-run rule victory.
Bailey Fucich was hit by a pitch, Hannah Meadors reached on a bobbled fielder's choice and Maggie Hinson drew a walk to load the bases.
Brittany Case had an RBI single and shortstop Bailey Hughes hit a sacrifice fly to center field that scored Meadors for the final margin.
"We're excited that we're back in the state tournament," Denham Springs coach David Bourque said. "We set the bar high here at Denham Springs. If we play defense behind our pitchers and continue to hit, I think we'll be tough to beat in Sulphur."
Fifth-seeded Denham Springs (21-5) advances to a quarterfinal game Friday against No. 4 Mount Carmel. Northshore, the 12th seed, finished 20-7 with its second straight regional appearance.
"We gave it a good shot," Northshore assistant coach Mike Bourg said. "Denham Springs just hit the ball and we gave up too many runs early. We showed a lot of heart to come back."
Senior shortstop Sydney Bourg, daughter of Mike Bourg, had three hits and two runs scored. Sabrina Buelle and Hailey Kirkpatrick added two hits each.
Northshore had 11 hits. Missy Clark (20-4) worked two innings and took the loss. Katherine Cognevich pitched the rest of the way.
"I've been coaching these girls who are juniors and seniors since they were 10 years old," Mike Bourg said. "This is the end of something that was special in my life. We really wanted to make it to Sulphur."
Denham Springs scored five runs in the first innings, three in the second and six in the third to lead 14-2.
Denham Springs pitcher Lucy Lewis (11-2) worked 4 2/3 innings and kept Northshore in check until the fifth inning.
Jessica Dicharla reached base on an error, Bourg singled and Buelle singled to drive in two runs. Northshore's other two runs in the fifth came on errant pickoff plays. Holley Morrison came on in relief for Denham and got Taylor Estrain to fly out for the third out.
Denham Springs had six errors to four for Northshore.
"We can make errors with the best of them," Bourque said. "We need to get that cleaned up."
Denham will bring a .376 team batting average into the state tournament. Freshman catcher Jaden Accardo leads the team with 11 homers.
Case, Hughes and Harli Crow, the first three batters in the order, scored three runs each for Denham. Fucich and Hannah Meadors scored two runs each.
Case led Denham with three hits. Hughes, Kaitlyn Thompson and Fucich had two hits. Hughes and Thompson had three RBIs each.
In the bottom of the third inning, Maggie Hinson hit a bloop RBI single to put Denham up 9-2. Hughes singled to drive in two runs. Crow had an RBI double. Accardo hit a sacrifice grounder to push across another run.

Praise poured in over Twitter and elsewhere about Nicklas Lidstrom, who retired Thursday after a 20-year NHL career that included four Stanley Cups and seven Norris trophies as top defenseman:
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman: "Nick Lidstrom's trademarks were his respect for hockey, his humanity and his commitment to his craft — as well as his devotion to the highest standards of success. For so many seasons, Nick gave the very best to his team, his city and his League; as he moves on to the next stage of his life, we wish the very same for him and his family."
San Jose Sharks' Ryane Clowe: "Never understood how Nick Lidstrom made a hard game look so easy. Congrats on a hall of fame career!"
St. Louis Blues' David Perron: "If everyone would play the game the right way like Nicklas Lidstrom did there wouldn't be many concussions in the NHL."
Edmonton Oilers' Ryan Whitney: "Lidstrom was a guy every player caught themselves watching in awe midgame."
New Jersey Devils' Johan Hedberg: "He's a great person, very, very professional. I think it's someone that probably doesn't get the respect that he deserves in Sweden. He's a low-key guy that gets overshadowed by some more marquee personalities. If there's anyone that people should want to model themselves after, it would be him."
Devils' Adam Larsson: "I think all the young players in Sweden look up to him, try to play similar as he do. What he has done so far is unique. Hopefully I can look back after my career and see that I've done something good like he has."
Dallas Stars' Jamie Benn: "I tip my hat to one of the greatest! Congrats on a great career."
Los Angeles Kings coach Darryl Sutter: "He was a frustrating guy to coach against because you could never get to Nicklas Lidstrom. Couldn't get to him. Didn't matter how you forechecked, what you set up, what you did. He was one of the few guys ever that could control a game from the defensive standpoint."
Washington Capitals' John Carlson: "Sad to see Nick Lidstrom retire. One of the game's all-time greats on and off the ice. A guy that everyone can learn from."
TV analyst Darren Pang: "A gentleman is how I describe Nick Lidstrom. Both on and off the ice, he was as good as it gets."
Red Wings GM Ken Holland: "In my opinion he's the best two-way defenseman to ever play the game. He's the type of player that comes along once in a generation."

text: As a beginner in installing wet beds, what products can i purchase at HD(if any) to make the correct mixture and what should the ratio be. A Rep. from A well known maker of cement products told me to just use their sand topping mix w/ a little water . Is this a workable product or should i mix sand w/ another product(eg. dry cement mix ) I saw a crew of tile workers mixing sand and something else together to make a wet bed but the bags were not marked and i did not get a chance to ask them what they were. A definitive answer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the help!

PUT two hockey teams on the ice and they're both going to play to win, even if the result will not affect league placings. If it's the final league game in front of your own fans, you want to win well. I think we did that on Sunday.
We owe our success this season to the depth of our squad, and it was great to be able to give a lot of ice time to our young players.
They have turned up for training every night, worked hard, stepped up when we needed them and their performances have been appreciated by team mates and fans. There's always a special buzz when they take to the ice.
There's an old hockey saying that a team is only as good as your goalie. Dean Skinns has more than repaid the trust we put in him, playing in every game this season. It's an astonishing achievement on his part; it's how he keeps consistently on top of his game.
Of course, not everything goes our way. We were all gutted for Muzzy (Michael) Wales when he broke his ankle in Swindon.
It makes us even more determined to succeed in the play-offs, for him and for our fans. He will want to be on the bench and to join us in Coventry.
The cup and league are behind us now and we don't want our season to end on Sunday. First are the two legs against Sheffield and then we're into one-off play-off games.
For those of you new to this part of the season, just think of the most exciting game you've seen this season and then imagine that it is played with even greater intensity and drama.
That's what you have to look forward to.
See you all Sunday.

JAIPUR, INDIA, September 1, 2002: The expression "fit for a king" comes to mind when it is realized that Lord Krishna has more than 10,000 sets of clothes that the priests of Jaipur's Govind Devji temple can use to adorn the Lord. Anjan Kumar Goswami, the head priest of the temple, says, "Govinda blesses his devotees with darshan (viewing of the Deity) at seven different times in a day and each time he is adorned in a new dress." The article says, "In fact, of the many designer dresses, one is totally made up of glass while another woven with flowers alone. On his birthday, Lord Krishna puts on a saffron yellow dress." During the 15-day festival of Janamashtami devotees numbering anywhere between 50,000 to 100,000 daily seek the Lord's blessings.
BHUBANESWAR, INDIA, September 12, 2002: Nearly two dozen Muslim businessmen and their families have been performing Ganesha puja for the last 10 years in Bhubaneswar, capital of Orissa. They organize the puja by constructing a huge pandal and installing an idol of Lord Ganesha in keeping with Hindu rituals. "We have formed an organization called the 'Jawan Matshya Byabasai Sangha Puja Committee' and all Muslims are its members," the secretary of the committee, Seikh Mustafa, said. He said the members organize the puja for 20 days, with local Hindu families also contributing. "We immerse the idol in the local Kuakhai River after the conclusion of the puja," he added. While they perform the puja according to Hindu rites, they also recite a few lines from the Quran daily, and conduct Islamic prayers for about two hours while immersing the idol, Mustafa said. Though this endeavor has failed to draw much publicity locally, the puja organizers are encouraged by the response from other places. "We have received more than 9,000 messages from all over the world supporting our attempt," said Mustafa. Along these same lines, HPI learned today that one of our correspondents met an Episcopal (Anglican) minister at the Ganesha Chaturthi celebrations at the Ganesha temple in Flushing New York. Asked if he was there as part of an interfaith program, the minister replied that no, he was there because he personally loved Lord Ganesha and wanted to observe His birthday.

YOGYAKARTA, INDONESIA September 3, 2002: Restoration work on Yogyakarta's world-famous Buddhist/Hindu temples -- Borobudur and Prambanan -- may take decades to finish given Indonesia's continuing economic crisis, experts say. Some work on Prambanan, 33 kilometers east of Borobudur, was completed in 1990. In 1991 both temples were declared World Heritage Sites by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). The reconstructed portion of Prambanan, an 18-temple compound with three looming enclosed alters dedicated to the Brahma, Vishnu and Siva is only the innermost courtyard of what was a sprawling a complex of 37 acres with some 246 unrestored smaller temples. Although the innermost sanctuary was the most awe-inspiring, it only represents five per cent of what needs to be done to restore the temple to its former grandeur, claimed Indonesian archaeologist Bambang Prasetya, chairman of the restoration group of the Yogjakarta Historical and Archeological Heritage Reserve (SPSP) office. Since 1997, when the Asian economic crisis struck, the government budget for restoration work has dried up, as have grants from UNESCO, and former donor nations such as Japan and the Netherlands.
PLANO, TEXAS, September 4, 2002: A circle of 12 parents and children sit cross-legged in a yoga position, begins this report in the Dallas Morning News. They take a deep breath. As they exhale, they say, sonorously, "Ommmmmm." The syllable fades to silence in the conference room at Plano Station, and the circle is still. "Who wants to play tag?" says the teacher, Ashish Chandra. The kids bounce to their feet. Classic Hindu culture and everyday childhood fun: This is Balagokulam, (see "source" above), a free weekly program that helps youth and parents learn about Hindu culture through fables, prayers and games. "We want them to feel comfortable in their culture," says Bindu Patel, a Balagokulam teacher and homemaker. "It's important to learn the facts, especially when you're living in a different environment." "It's a way for kids to play and learn about Hindu religion and culture," says Sandeep Gupta, a software engineer from Richardson who attends the class with his seven-year-old son, Shivam. Gupta says he's glad his son has made friends in the group and hopes he'll feel more comfortable with culturally specific activities, such as taking Indian food for lunch at school after seeing his Balagokulam friends eat it at a temple. Instilling good values. Donations from parents support the chapter in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where about 80,000 Indians live, according to the India Association of North Texas. Most students in Balagokulam moved to the United States within the last 10 years.
LONDON, ENGLAND, September 8, 2002: The Hindu community here responded overwhelmingly to various job opportunities in the British police force. This was reflected at a specially organized recruitment center at the Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, Neasden, London, last night where a sea of hands went up from among the 3,000 people gathered to join the police force. Assistant Commissioner Tariq Ghaffur who spoke to the gathering on a wide range of career opportunities available to the prospective applicants asked the audience to raise their hands if they were interested and in response a sea of hands, both young and old, shot up. Ghaffur, who had come to London as a refugee from Uganda in 1974, rose to become the Assistant Commissioner by dint of hard work and commitment to duty. He said the job opportunities available range from constables, special constables, dog handlers, forensic scientists, police cadets and finally civilian staff. Ghaffur who was accompanied by senior Police Officers from the London Borough of Brent was garlanded by the Mahant of the temple, Atmaswarup Swami when he arrived at the Mandir complex.
CHENNAI, INDIA, September 11, 2002: On the occasion of the commemoration of the 9/11 attacks on America, Swami Gautamananda, president of the Ramakrishna Mission in Chennai was requested to address the gathering. His remarks read in part, "Though we are yet to find out what all ideas worked behind that tragedy of September 11, 2001, we can be sure that an extreme fanatic ideology that considered all other ideologies as worth nothing and itself as the only worth living ideology was behind the dastardly act. The further events have revealed that this fanatic ideology was inculcated into receptive minds of the youth who become the instruments of terror that revealed itself at New York. Fanaticism drives away all reason and thus persons with fanatic ideas act like robots, rather, like animals. Fanaticism is the fuel by which the machine of terrorism works. Fanaticism has been there in human life whenever people have been deprived of their spiritual food. What is this spiritual food? The disciplines or values of life that lead persons to realize their oneness with the Universe and with God and thus come to love humanity and God. The Sages of the Vedas, the oldest available scriptures to humanity, say that all this creation is God alone - 'Sarvam Kalvidham Brahma.' It implies that this Divinity is in every creature as its fundamental, inalienable nature. ... When this idea of the Divinity of man is widely taught, not only in our schools and colleges but also in all churches, mosques, pagodas, tabernacles and temples where most innocent minds throng in millions, then only people will get their highest respect and regard, irrespective of their gender, wealth, intelligence, power etc. Then only the very idea of harming anyone, be it for any cause, would appear abhorring. Then alone can violence be radically uprooted from society." For the complete text, click "source" above.
VADODARA, INDIA, September 10, 2002: Nearly 250 Ganesh icons were damaged mysteriously at Ranchhod Rai temple near Madan Zampa here on Sunday. All of the icons prepared for Ganesha Chaturthi celebrations were on display at the temple. They all cracked within seconds of each other. The event was being largely construed as a bad omen even as scores flocked the temple to see the broken icons. The maker of the icons claimed there was no technical fault in making them, many reasoned that the "strange phenomenon" was because of the "politicization" of Lord Ganesha and the festival. However, rationalists -- without having inspected the damaged icons -- believe the damage might have been due to a technical fault. "An icon gets damaged because of contraction and expansion of the material used in making it," said noted sculptor and a former member the MSU's fine arts department, Mahendra Pandya. He did not offer an explanation as to why they cracked happened all at once.
CHENNAI, INDIA, September 12, 2002: DMK party president M. Karunanidhi on Thursday condemned the criticisms for conducting the temple consecrations by chanting mantras in Tamil. "Those who criticized conducting the consecrations with mantras being chanted in Tamil have no place in Tamil Nadu," he said while participating at a marriage function. At a recent temple consecration at Karur, mantras were chanted in Tamil, which was disapproved by Kanchi Sankaracharya Sri Jayendra Saraswathi, who had said it was against Agamas. Karunanidhi said if the Gods could not understand the mantras in Tamil, They also did not have any place in the state. He said it was a superstition that the Gods would not understand mantras, if they were not rendered in Sanskrit. "I am not against Gods. But why should we worship a God who does not understand Tamil?" he asked. The DMK party, originally atheistic and anti-religious, has in recent years softened its stance toward religion.
AHMEDABAD, INDIA, September 9, 2002: NRI Sadbhavna Mission to India has collected $1 million from the NRIs living in the US, of which 80% has already been distributed for the riot-affected people. Names of the organizations through which these funds were disbursed, cannot be revealed "because some of them have been threatened," says Shrikumar Poddar of the NRI Sadbhavna Mission to India, which is visiting Gujarat for the first time since the riots. Aditi Desai, a member of the delegation and UN consultant based in New York, said, "We have come as human beings, and we have not slept nights thinking about what was going on here. We could not face the humiliation abroad when people told us this is happening in your country. The strong Hindutva influences, as spread by the spokespersons of Hinduism, had spread even in the US, where attempts were being made to interpret history in a different way," she told TNN.
September 9, 2002: Rediff's web guide has compiled what they believe are the best links for Ganesha Chaturthi. From a short history of the festival to virtual worship, a link to the famous Siddhivinayak Temple in Mumbai and photos of Ganesha immersions are a few of their picks. Check them out at "source" and enjoy Ganesha's darshan.
PUERTO RICO, September 11, 2002: Dada J.P. Vaswani is visiting Puerto Rico, as he does almost each year. Dada was just named Hinduism Today's "Hindu of the Year" for 2002.

BANGALORE, INDIA, September 9: Environmentalists, take heart: the Lalbagh Horticultural Department is planning to employ five expert swimmers to immerse Ganesha idols in water for a nominal fee. The department's aim is to control reckless immersion of idols, which is causing damage to the Lalbagh lake, Joint Director of the Department of Horticulture, Lalbagh, S. Ashwath says. ''This will put an end to contamination of the lake to a large extent,'' Ashwath said. "The swimmers will be given strict instructions not to allow anything other than icons inside the lake. Before immersion, they will remove all puja material, including garlands and eatables, from the icons."

LONDON, ENGLAND, August 31, 2002: Indian restaurants in Britain are currently gripped by an acute shortage of qualified cooks as catering academies prefer to teach Chinese, Japanese, Spanish or Italian specialties, rather than Indian cuisine, which is the most popular in the country. Restaurants are now recruiting candidates from all ethnic groups, plus appealing for more lenient visa rules. More than two million curries are served a week in over 8,500 food outlets. Indian food recently eclipsed Chinese food as the most popular ethnic cuisine in the UK, and is a US$3.6 billion-a-year industry.
GHANA, AFRICA, September 9, 2002: A special puja was held Friday, August 30, 2002, at the Hindu Monastery of Africa headquarters to mark the auspicious occasion of the 10th anniversary Maha Samadhi of Swami Krishnanand Saraswati, former Guru Maha Sannidhanam of the Hindu Monastery of Africa and founder of the Human Service Trust of Mauritius. All the monastery branches throughout Ghana also conducted special pujas to mark this auspicious occasion. Swami Ghananandaji Saraswati, present head of the monastery, led the community of devotees in the distribution of clothing and food throughout the country and personally conducted a six-week retreat at the Accra Monastery for twelve devotees. For additional information e-mail "source" above.
CHENNAI, INDIA, September 10, 2002: The radical group, Hindu Munnani, has asked icon makers not to make statues of Lord Ganesh that show Him wearing a shirt and trousers and not the traditional Indian dhoti. Such icons are popularly called "Baba style" and are selling briskly across Chennai. Munnani claims they would not bring good luck to the buyers. It has been named after the Tamil movie Baba, which features superstar Rajnikanth and was released last month. Hindu Munnani plans to collect icons from various districts and take them to the Rameswaram town for immersion.

text: One of the great ironies of Neil Young's career is that, despite his refusal to capitulate to passing trends, he has somehow passed through decades of music, genius intact. Since Young's 1989 comeback Freedom, he's always been given the benefit of the doubt, but while his early-'90s output was as strong as ever, his last few albums have coasted through undernourished songs that subsist on only the occasional surge of vigor. Strangely, his new Silver & Gold actually demonstrates the opposite: This is Young's strongest set of songs in years, but the disc just isn't compelling. Part of the problem is that Young, the restless and wondering spirit, sounds absolutely satisfied to be right where he is. "Good to see you again," he croons on the leadoff track of the same name, to no one in particular. Or maybe to everyone, as Young sounds especially eager to please. A similar theme of nostalgia courses through the delicately devised album, carried by songs so simple and slight that they threaten to float away into the diffused sunset haze. Coming right on the heels of the CSNY reunion, "Buffalo Springfield Again"—an overt olive branch to Young's first band—might seem suspect if it weren't so sweet and earnest. Likewise, the love songs "Horseshoe Man" and "Distant Camera" (which verge on sentimentality) and "The Great Divide" (which hinges on a yearning chorus) get by on the basis of their gentle nature, not their gripping narratives. Unlike Harvest Moon, which it most resembles, Silver & Gold lacks drama: Its drifting daydreams and doodles stick around just long enough to leave a pleasant impression before fading away, but it's a bit like walking into a movie just in time for the happy ending. Still, just because Young likes where he's at doesn't mean there's nowhere left to go. Here's hoping he again finds more to offer than all this useless beauty.

The gas industry has urged the Abbott government to exempt $200 billion of new liquefied natural gas projects from the compliance element of the direct action plan for at least five years.
Other industries also want new investments exempted from the setting and tracking of baselines, which is emerging as one of the most contentious elements of the scheme.
"While the concept of an emissions baseline may have academic appeal, in practice the application has the potential to represent a considerable compliance burden on both industry and the regulator," Chevron says in a submission on the scheme.
Direct Action, the government's plan to cut emissions to 5 per cent below 2000 levels by 2020, includes two elements. The $1.5 billion emissions reduction fund to pay for voluntary abatement, and a compliance mechanism to track and manage the greenhouse emissions of big polluters.
The December discussion paper suggests the compliance mechanism will be apply only to 190 big polluters from July 2015.
The government is seeking views on how baselines can be set to limit increases in historical business-as-usual emissions.
Industry submissions on the earlier terms of reference show it will be a key area of contention for business.
QGC says new gas facilities – the industry is now investing $200 billion in projects – cannot be expected to offer accurate emissions forecasts and should be allowed "five years of steady-state operation" to determine its baseline before being included in the scheme. The Australian Industry Greenhouse Network, representing major companies, says it will be impossible to determine "best practice" approaches to measure emissions from new facilities or from an expansion.
"There is a real risk that such an approach would lead to arrangements which are unduly prescriptive, or entail the bureaucracy second-guessing business decisions."
It wants new facilities exempt for five years and queries the logic behind the development of "complicated additional reporting mechanisms".
Chevron says the "time and effort" invested by both industry and government in determining baselines under Labor's Jobs and Competitiveness Program is "reason enough to be concerned about the complexity and cost of establishing baselines for all emitters across the Australian economy".
The Australian Petroleum Production and Exploration Association also says the setting of baselines is a key design factor and past experience was "contentious and unsatisfactory".
The Australian Aluminium Council says the mechanism that will apply to emissions above the business as usual baseline has the "greatest potential, amongst all the components of Direct Action, to hinder Australian business if not implemented carefully".
Energy Networks Association, representing electricity and gas distributors, doesn't support the compliance mechanism at all. "The ENA does not support the application of baselines and penalties for network businesses under the Direct Action plan.
"The application of penalties that go above baselines could amount to a de-facto carbon tax. Costs imposed through penalties would ultimately be passed on to end consumers through higher prices," it says.
The Grattan Institute warns the setting of baselines will be an issue of "contention and commercial positioning".
"Although the government has expressed confidence that the setting of baselines for emissions is relatively straightforward, this is a key complexity of the ERF [Emissions Reduction Fund] and baseline-and-credit schemes generally when compared with the ETS approach."

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hi & thanks for using our service. I'll do my best to give you a complete & accurate answer. Please ask me to clarify anything you don't understand.
Selling the property won't affect your social security benefits, but it may affect the taxability of your social security benefits for the year of sale.
As far as the capital gain is concerned, depending upon the value of the trailer park, the trailer part would be included in your mothers gross estate and would normally receive a "step-up" in tax basis to the fair market value at her date of death as when property is subject to a life estate it remains in control of the life tenant and thus is included in the life tenant's gross estate upon death.
I am going to sell it for $75,000. We have received $7150 in income this year in income. This is a fair price for the trailer park.
You will need to get an appraisal of the trailer park, including a possible business valuation, in order to determine the total fair market value at your mother's date of death. That should become your income tax basis & will be used to determine your gain or loss.
Clearly, I am going to have to use an accountant this year. I usually do my taxes my self and have a consistent loss of 2000 to 3000 each year because I have other rental properties. I get approximately 2200 per month SS.
Thank you for your help.
Well, if the trailer part is only worth $75,000., you may not need to get an appraisal, particularly if you sell it fairly quickly.
part = park
Please remember to "ACCEPT". Feedback, if you have time & bonuses where you think they are warranted are always most appreciated. I'll be happy to answer any follow-up questions you may have.
You should make sure you get an accountant who is familiar with estates, preferably a CPA.
You have been a great help. I will sell most likely this month. I don't know how to do bonuses. How do I retain a copy of this info?
You'll need to right click and block it off then copy it & you can paste it to an email or Word & then print it.
there should be a spot after ACCEPT where you can leave a bonus if you are so inclined; it is completely voluntary of course.

...more than just a fun word to say
29.11.2012 - 29.11.2012
View Latin American Tour on alexis.johnson's travel map.
We got up at a decent time this morning to bring in our dry laundry and sort ourselves out ready for Cochabamba proper today.
Alex's wife prepared our breakfast for us, and took us part way into the city. I like Alex's wife. We haven't actually caught her name yet, and now it's too late/awkward to ask. She speaks really quickly and loudly, and says my name ALEXIIIIIIIIS, like when farmers are hog calling SUEEEEEEEEY.
She's super friendly, and also knows a bit of English. Yesterday, she spoke really quickly and my blank face and fake laugh must have told her something, because then I heard her say, "Oh, no Ud. entiende espanol, no?" You don't know Spanish, do you?
SHIT, she's on to me!
I must be a bit better today, after a full night's rest, because I think she complimented some aspect of my Spanish. Probably not speaking...maybe comprehension (funny that, as I didn't really comprehend what she said).
Oh, balls.
I *hear* what they're saying, but I have no idea how to respond to it. Just like I told Warren today, yes, I could ask for directions to a place where they sell cigars, but then she'll respond, and where will we be then?!
At any rate, we got a taxi to El Cristo de la Concordia and got the teleferico (a cable car) up the top for a few HappySnappys.
Here, we also bought some ice cream/popsicles. I tried this one:
It tasted good, but I was disappointed once I'd finished and discovered I didn't look anything like the cartoon implied I might.
Apparently, there are a lot of muggings on the stairs down from El Cristo. Looking mental would have come in handy. We took the teleferico back down again. Better safe than sorry.
We got a taxi from El Cristo to La Concha, South America's largest open air market. An old taxi driver tried to swindle us into paying BOB 25, but we said no gracias, and cleverly walked a few blocks away from the tourist trap to pay just BOB 10.
It's difficult to negotiate here. BOB 10 is less than $2 – you're supposed to say, "What?! Ten bolivianos?! You're crazy! It's just down the road. I'll pay five." Bolivia has just seen Warren and I smiling sweetly and saying, muy bien.
At the market, we bought:
• two blanket/tablecloths for our next bus journey. They're tablecloths, but now they're dual purpose. The locals will think we're genius. Or mental.
• deodorant for Warren who had been suspiciously smelling of mine for the last week.
• world's largest onion
• world's largest green pepper
• 9 eggs (asked for 6)

Intermediate Macro Texts and the Economic Crisis of 2008-09
The authors use quantitative and qualitative analyses to examine how well 12 leading intermediate macroeconomic textbooks would have prepared students for understanding the economic crisis and stabilisation policies implemented in 2008/09. Evaluations distinguish between topical coverage of relevant concepts and theoretical underpinnings of interventionist policy. The authors find heavy emphasis on content associated with macro stability but significantly less content that would have been useful in comprehending informed public warnings about instability and the interventionist policies that were actually implemented. Examples from the texts are offered to support their analyses. While not objecting to thorough treatment of arguments related to macro stability, the authors suggest students would be better served by texts that integrate more serious coverage of crises, potential causes, and policy responses.

- Northwestern had a significant start to the weekend on Friday when the Wildcats landed two in-state commitments, defensive end Devin O'Rourke and tight end Brian Kaiser. O'Rourke is a four-star, Scout 300 prospect with a big frame and agility for a kid of that size. We believe he will grow into a strongside guy and may have a similar growth trajectory as former Wildcat and current Green Bay Packer Dean Lowry. In Kaiser, the Wildcats get a 6-foot-7 kid who shows a range of athletic abilities on film. He can run after the catch and go up and get the ball. He is going to fill in his frame and make for quite the matchup issue in our opinion.
The Wildcats now have five commitments in the 2017 class. With new facilities on the way and not just any old facilities but
- Kentucky continues to recruit Ohio very well and received a commitment from Cincinnati Moeller tight end Brenden Bates. Bates is a great sized kid who moved around the formation quite a bit for Moeller last season. He will likely grow into more of an on the ball guy, but can certainly move off the line of scrimmage as well. The Wildcats got him over offers from Louisville, Pittsburgh, Iowa, Maryland, Cincinnati and others.
- The Miami RedHawks held a junior day over the weekend which proved to be quite successful. Several new offers were extended there. Several in-state prospects -- defensive tackle Elijah Ratliff, wide receiver Jalen Hooks, defensive back Darnell Shields and safety Kevin Brewer -- received offers as well as Indianapolis Ben Davis' Reese Taylor and Elijah Ball. One of the top 2019 prospects in Michigan, Spencer Brown, received an offer. One of Ohio's top 2019 prospects, defensive lineman Steven Faucheux was offered as well. A number of out of region prospects from the southeast and east were offered as well.
- Four-star tight end Luke Ford is hitting the road now that basketball is finished. He visited Illinois over the weekend before spending two days at Arkansas. He heads to Georgia tomorrow. He also recently added a Louisville offer.
- Zach Mueller, an offensive lineman from D.C. Everest in Wisconsin, will visit Michigan State on March 17 and 18.
- Three-star Green Bay (Wis.) Preble running back Henry Geil says Indiana is the latest school to reach out to him. He holds several power-five offers.
- Penn State will host four-star Cleveland Heights defensive end Tyreke Smith on Tuesday.
- Wisconsin will have three-star Carol Stream (Ill.) Glenbard North cornerback

Self-help author M Scott Peck dies
American author and psychiatrist M Scott Peck, who wrote the best-seller The Road Less Traveled and other self-help books, has died at his Connecticut home.
He was 69.
Peck died on Sunday, friend and Los Angeles publicist Michael Levine said.
He had suffered from pancreatic and liver duct cancer.
Peck spent more than 10 years in the private practice of psychiatry and had his first book, The Road Less Traveled, published in 1978.
The self-help book that begins "Life is difficult", has sold more than 6 million copies in North America and been translated into 20 languages.
By the mid-1990s, the book had made 258 appearances on The New York Times best-seller list.
His other books include People of the Lie: The Hope For Healing Human Evil, Meditations From the Road, and Further Along the Road Less Traveled.
Peck was the recipient of the 1984 Kaleidoscope Award for Peacemaking and the 1994 Temple International Peace Prize.
He also received the Learning, Faith and Freedom Medal from Georgetown University in 1996.
He is survived by his wife, Kathleen Kline Yates Peck; his daughter, Belinda; his son, Christopher; and two grandchildren.

I work with people who struggle with using food as emotional comfort. Whether you are preparing for lapband surgery, trying to control your diabetes, or simply get healthier emotionally, counseling can help. Many times people with eating disorders are struggling with thoughts such as "I'm not good enough" or "I need to make sure everyone is happy". I help people identify the negative thoughts that repeat in their minds and practice "fact checking" to replace those destructive generalized thoughts with the truth of the moment. As we practice being more accurate in how we speak to ourselves we can also minimize our need to escape with food.

U.S. Rep. Dennis Ross (FL-15) introduced the Bowles-Simpson Plan of Lowering America's Debt Act (BOLD Act) yesterday in the U.S. House of Representatives. This legislation enacts bipartisan reforms to both the tax structure and to federal spending which were initially proposed by the Bowles-Simpson Commission in 2010.
"When Floridians are having to make hard financial decisions as they sit around their kitchen tables and look at their budgets, our government must also be forced to live within its means," said Ross. "As a small business owner, I have had to make a payroll, balance my budget, and reduce spending during difficult economic times. Now it's time for government to do the same. The Bowles-Simpson Plan of Lowering America's Debt Act will enact substantive tax reform for both individuals and corporations while reducing federal government spending."
- Some key points of the BOLD Act include:
* Reducing expenditures for the White House and Congress
* Prohibiting earmarks
* Reducing individual and corporate rates
* Repealing the alternative minimum tax on individuals
* Eliminating wasteful tax expenditures, some with a five-year phase-out
* Setting a flat corporate tax rate of 20 percent
- The BOLD Act narrows the income tax into just two brackets: 10 percent for annual incomes under $100,000 and 20 percent for incomes over $100,000.
- The bill number is H.R. 243.

New graduate program at EMU addresses violence in schools
YPSILANTI - The Eastern Michigan University Board of Regents approved the implementation of a master's degree in schools, society and violence at its regular meeting March 16.
The interdisciplinary program, aimed at in-service teachers who want to learn how to reduce violent practices in schools, will be offered jointly through the teacher education department and the sociology, criminology and anthropology department.
"For more than 150 years, EMU has played a major state and national role in the preparation of teachers, other school personnel, and certain related professionals,"said Jerry Robbins, dean of the college of education. " Now we are partnering with our sociology and criminology department to help education professionals fully understand how to reduce the level of violence in our schools."
According to a 2003 report from the National Center for Education Statistics:
A growing number of educators believe that typical prevention and institutional control responses to school violence, such as security guards, metal detectors, detentions, suspensions and expulsions, only fragment and alienate the school communities they serve. This program will introduce educators to the broad social, economic and political forces that contribute to violence, and help them make substantial changes in the approaches they use to cope with violence over the long term.
The master of arts in schools, society and violence is scheduled to be offered in fall, 2005, and consists of 30 credit hours of coursework. Classes offered include Sociology of Education; School and Classroom Discipline Management; Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault and Crisis Intervention.
Individuals seeking admission to the program must comply with graduate school admission requirements; have at least a 2.7 undergraduate grade point average; submit a letter of interest describing their career goals and reasons for pursuing this master's degree; and submit two letters of recommendation.
Interested applicants can contact the Department of Teacher Education, 734.487.3260, for more information.Eastern Michigan University is a public, comprehensive, metropolitan university that offers programs in the arts, sciences and professions. EMU prepares students with the intellectual skills and practical experiences to succeed in their careers and lives, and to be better citizens.

Honeywell offers Bendix/King avionics for TPs, light and medium jets with RNP futures
Availability of RNP terminal ops to all GA pilots means better access and safer, easier-to-fly approaches.
RNP Rwy 31R approach to PSP displayed on Primus Apex INAV MFD. While this is an SAAAR procedure, a similar one with fewer restrictions could soon be approved for RNP 0.3 aircraft.
The KFD840 offers a large integrated attitude display with an easy-to-read picture of essential flight data superimposed on the display. A horizontal situation indicator (HSI) is at the bottom of the screen.
An integral air data attitude heading reference system (ADAHRS) provides a complete spectrum of all data so that no external reference system is required. The KFD840 will interface with most autopilots in use in turboprops and light and midsize jets.
Companion navigation tool to the KFD840 is the KSN770 MFD. It features an integral nav/com VHF radio and an FMS, both of which use a cursor control device (CCD) to point and click for data and frequency entry and modification through a host of graphical windows.
Also included within the unit is a WAAS-capable GPS receiver, which could be capable of flying RNP approaches under AC90-105. Total retail cost for these 2 units is about $31,000. With installation and certification, flyaway cost is estimated at $50,000, but this will vary with individual aircraft configuration.
According to Cundiff, "Honeywell is planning on taking the Apex Edge to the current fleet of light piston aircraft." To that end, he notes, "We are working on the 'NextGen' version, both as an avionics suite and as individual components.
A customer will have the option to retrofit with the entire Apex Edge suite or replace older components with the latest Apex Edge PFDs and MFDs." Follow-on versions of the KFD840 will include additional capabilities to improve engine monitoring and increase situation awareness with synthetic vision (SV) capability.
The KSN770 will continue to incorporate a wider set of options for map and situational displays, giving the pilot the ability to focus on complex approach and departure procedures and highlight the critical elements.
Like its high-end sister product, Primus Epic, the new Primus Apex suite can completely replace all the instruments and displays in the cockpit with 4 large, colorful flat panels. Honeywell notes that the turboprop/small/medium jet operator will enjoy the same safety and situational awareness as that available in larger aircraft.
Cundiff explains that the new Primus Apex updates will likely not provide its customers with access to the full range of RNP procedures, because the high-end RNP SAAAR procedures require IRS as a backup to GPS. IRSs are not generally found in the airplanes that would be Primus Apex equipped.
When? And how much?
"The updates to Primus Apex are in development," says Cundiff. "We're working with several OEMs to incorporate them in new aircraft coming down the line." He qualifies this, though, adding, "Given the slowdown in the development cycle with the economy, its introduction may not be as timely as we had hoped.
We're pressing ahead with its development, although it's too early for us to commit to a specific completion date or system cost." Honeywell's Primus Apex system will offer operators of turboprop and small and medium jets off-the-shelf products to support RNP operations.
By the time a customer could take delivery of his aircraft, new RNP procedures should be in place, and owners will be able to enjoy the first fruits of the new generation of safer, more efficient arrivals and departures.
Woody McClendon flies jets and helicopters and has contributed to Professional Pilot for many years.

Fire at Arnold Towers high rise
No one was injured in a late afternoon fire in a sixth-floor apartment at the Arnold Towers on Horne Boulevard in Arnold.
Resident Joan Smith ushered Della Ricchuito in Apt. 604 from her burning kitchen and smoke-filled apartment.
Ricchuito said she was warming up macaroni and cheese before the fire broke out in her kitchen.
Smith, who lives in an apartment a floor below Ricchuito, told her to leave the apartment.
Ricchuito said, "I was using baking soda to try to put the fire out. She pulled me out.
"I said that I wanted to get my purse and cane and she said, 'Forget it.' "
Smith said she heard a thud from Ricchuito's apartment and went up to investigate.
Smith found a smoke-filled apartment and saw that the kitchen cabinets were on fire.
"Della wouldn't come out," Smith said. "I tried to use the fire extinguisher, but the fire was too big.
"Thank God that I heard that thud," she said. "We look out for each other here."
Arnold police Sgt. Mike Krahe was the first on scene shortly after 5:30 p.m.
Police immediately knocked on apartment doors on the sixth floor to evacuate residents.
In Ricchuito's apartment, "the smoke was so thick that you couldn't see," Krahe said.
Arnold police Chief Willie Weber, a longtime firefighter, entered the apartment and started to knock down the fire.
Firefighters arrived and set up two ladder trucks to access the unit to finish off the fire and work on getting smoke out of the apartment.
Police and firefighters were concerned about the heavy smoke in part of the sixth floor.
About 20 residents were evacuated from the sixth floor, while residents on the other floors could choose to evacuate to the building's community room or stay on their porch, Weber said.
The building's two elevators were shut down during the emergency and police and firefighters escorted some residents down the stairs to reach the first-floor community room.
According to Arnold fire Chief J.C. Tedorski, no one was injured and the blaze is under investigation. Foul play is not suspected.
There are about 120 residents and 125 apartments in the eight-story, public housing high-rise building, according to Tedorski.
Firefighters worked to ventilate the building and had the smoke and other issues cleared up by about 7:30 p.m.

Hitachi's entire range of power tools is dressed in a fantastic jungle livery and comes with deeply textured, soft plastic handles to give you essential extra grip, but the DB 3DL is perhaps the most innovative design.
This green gizmo is designed to reach the screws that other drivers simply can't. You can straighten him out to give you a reach of 25cm, or snap your snake into a 90-degree angle to get it working just like a regular drill or screwdriver.
Torque to the hand
The DB 3DL is surprisingly powerful for a pocket device too. The maximum torque is 5Nm, which means you can undo even the most stubborn screw, or drive one into a solid piece of hardwood.
There are two speeds and 21 torque stages, so when it comes to the more delicate jobs, like disassembling your girlfriend's new mobile phone, it's equally adept. Just twist the chuck end down to a low setting and fit a fine crosshead driver bit (not supplied) and you'll have that Nokia N95 reduced to its component parts in no time.
The battery is another plus point. The Li-Ion cell is 40% lighter than its Ni-MH counterparts and it'll last 30 minutes on a single charge. Two are included in the nifty plastic carrying case, so that should easily cover a day's work.
LED light saber
In practice, we found the LED headlamp was a particularly useful addition. It's not so bright that your screwdriver suddenly becomes a light saber and it canes your battery life, but it really comes into its own when you're working underneath a defective Peugeot 205. The beam is directed right at the bit tip, so you can see precisely what's going on.
Only the basic crosshead/flathead driver is included in the case, so you'll want to get a mini set of bits to go with this. Look for the 6.35mm quick lock hex type bits.
Given its slim proportions and flexible usage it's not too hard to justify a place on your utility belt for Hitachi's handy autoscrewdriver. And adding it's ability to get you in and out of tight spots and illuminate the whole operation gives it a marked advantage over rivals.
