WASHINGTON, DC – On Tuesday, February 26 at 10:00 AM, the day before the Supreme Court will hear arguments in Shelby County v. Holder, the nation's leading experts on the bailout provision of Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act (VRA) will brief reporters.
While the VRA protects voting rights nationwide, Section 5 is an enhanced enforcement designation used to combat discrimination in jurisdictions with persistent current and historical efforts to suppress minority voters.
The VRA rewards progress in these covered jurisdictions by allowing them to "bail out" or have their coverage under Section 5 terminated after achieving a clean record of nondiscriminatory voting practices for ten years. This flexibility ensures that the geographic reach of Section 5 applies only to jurisdictions that continue efforts to discriminate in voting based on race. Not a single jurisdiction that has sought the opportunity to leave Section 5 coverage since 1982 has been turned down.
The Supreme Court previously clarified the bailout provision in its ruling on NAMUDNO v. Holder in 2009. Since then, more than 125 jurisdictions have bailed out.
This telephonic press briefing will include ample question and answer time with the nation's leading experts on bailout.
· Julie Fernandes, Senior Policy Analyst for the Open Society Foundations and former deputy assistant attorney general for civil rights at the U.S. Department of Justice
· Gerry Hebert, attorney to 174 bailed out jurisdictions and author of an amicus brief filed by jurisdictions that have bailed out
WHAT: Press call on the bailout provision of Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act in advance of Supreme Court argument in landmark case.
WHEN: Tuesday, February 26 at 10:00 AM EST
CALL-IN INFO: 866-952-1906, Verbal Passcode: "VRA"

Nails on the chalkboard. Did you hear them?
I usually cringe when it comes to having T-Bird write. You never know where it will lead us. That kid very much so, like, a lot dislikes writing.
Brett took over the writing portion of our day today. {Cheers to me!}
I heard T ask his daddy if he could write a rap instead of sentences. See, already trying to not write.
Brett allowed it for today. Hey, it's Friday, why not!?
This is what he ended up with.
Complete with picture:
Ch-ch-change the the cage.
Ya man. The the page got strange and kuz it got huge.

Yes, folks. I don't know what we'll do with our little rapper on the brink of greatness. Wait, I mean, lil rapper.
Let's not leave out the Professor's writing:
Bob got a spanking.
Bob was feeling smug.
Bob spit.
Bob itched his scalp.
Bob could smell the smog.
Bob can spell spin.
Bob smacked his mom.
I think the last sentence may be why Bob got a spanking in the first sentence. He told me he had to keep using Bob as a name because it was part of one story.
What about Hoot?
He pulled this out of his hat:
Pup tossed an egg.
And then Hoot left the room. As if that sentence was grandiose enough to get him out of anymore sentences.
I'm going to call this a success.

Seabourn is Great!: Seabourn Odyssey Cruise Review by mikeg11643
Overall Member Rating
Seabourn is Great!
Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean
Embarkation: Istanbul
First the positive: As an experienced cruiser, with much of that spent on Regent/Radisson, I can state unequivocally - Seabourn is better! My wife and I came off the Odyssey about a week ago and it was our first experience with Seabourn. In terms of service and amenities, Seabourn and Regent are comparable. The two biggest differences are 1) The food is better on Seabourn and 2) The atmosphere is better (this is a biggie). As one would expect, after about 2 days, the crew knew our names and preferences, but more importantly, there was a feeling of family between us and the crew members with whom we interacted. The waiters and maitre d's in the restaurants would watch for More us and know what we liked and how we liked it. The cruise director and assistant cruise director (whom we had previously met on Regent) would tell us about their families and lives. Even the singer/dancer troupe (with whom we only had dinner once) told us about life in show biz (and its less glamorous side). Shopping with chef Joachem was an experience unequalled on any other trip we have ever taken, and our cabin stewardess was in tears when we left after 3 weeks. You can't buy experiences like these.
And now the negative: First and foremost - the LOUD music. When we went to the evening's entertainment the first night, we were astonished at how loud the volume was turned up in that fairly small theater. In addition to detracting from the quality of the show, it also made us hesitant about returning for additional shows. The Seabourn band likewise comes in for its share of criticism; generally the function of a band is to accompany, not to perform. Which means that you should be able to hear the singer/pianist/conversation to whom you are trying to listen. When a pianist performed his pre-dinner show, his accompanying CD was turned up so loud that it was impossible to know whether he was actually playing the piano (he was) or whether he was key-synching to the CD. Perhaps the most egregious incident occurred in the Club Lounge one evening at 10 PM when a group of us were conversing. The singer/band started up full volume, no introduction, and eliminated any possibility of further conversation. To me, this was just...plain...rude. The message was: your conversation is unimportant - you will listen to me. Could you imagine some guy barging into the middle of your conversation and proceeding to talk, in a very loud voice, about his gall bladder operation (which removed his bladder, but not his gall)? This sort of "loud music=excitement=fun" attitude is much more suited to the Carnival "fun ships" than to an up-market product such as Seabourn. The second criticism: Limited evening dining choices. Regent offers two choices in the evening: dining room or cafeteria/sit-down in La Veranda. Seabourn offers no alternative to the dining room because the other restaurants are reservation-only. Understandably, Restaurant 2 and the Colonnade are specialty facilities in the evening (as are Signatures and Prime on Regent) but could the Patio Grill not be opened as an alternative to the dining room? That way, casually-dressed diners or those who don't want to spend 2½ hours in the dining room could socialize, rather than having to eat in their cabins.
In conclusion: Will we sail Seabourn again? Yes, absolutely; we've already purchased on onboard booking voucher and love what we saw on Odyssey. Less

"I had been looking for outdoors lights for our wedding reception venue for a while, and I kept come back to LED Outdoor. As we are located in the Hunter Valley, I thought surely there was someone local who could provide the same product. I eventually gave up my search, and rang Troy at LED Outdoor. His customer service, knowledge and advice has been incredible. The lights arrived in 48 hours (which in itself was incredible!), were installed easily by our electricians and look absolutely amazing. I would not go anywhere else in future. The lighting has taken the presentation of our property to another level. Thanks Troy!"

e2v has signed a contract worth 2.8M euro with Astrium, Europe's leading space technology company. e2v will supply imaging sensors to equip the European Space Agency's (ESA) Sentinel 4 Ultraviolet Visible Near-infrared (UVN) instrument, which will gather data on the quality of the Earth's atmosphere and its chemical composition from geostationary orbit
Sentinel 4 is part of the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) initiative, which is a joint undertaking of the European Commission and the European Space Agency. It will deliver environmental and security services in Europe, in response to the ever-increasing demands for effective environmental policies.
ESA is responsible for the Space component of GMES, of which the five families of Sentinel missions are key components. Within this programme, Sentinel 4 will be carried into orbit onboard the Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) geostationary satellite and enable seamless observations of Europe and North Africa to be taken hourly.
e2v's space qualified, custom Charge Coupled Device (CCDs) image sensors will be produced using cutting edge technologies, including back illumination, which delivers the best Quantum Efficiency (QE) and Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) over the wavelength range of interest for this hyperspectral imaging system.
The sensors are mounted in an e2v designed package assembly which manages the electrical, thermal, mechanical and optical interfaces to the instrument. The contract is carried out with funding from the European Union.
Hans Faulks, General Manager High Performances Imaging at e2v, said "e2v is delighted to sign this contract with Astrium. It demonstrates how e2v's imaging technology for Earth observation applications is well recognised and adds to more than 100 Earth observation programmes running with our high performance imaging sensors."

Origin of The Ultimate Remedy?
Still today, the people of Islam can benefit themselves from Quran. A light and energy of the same density still exists but how to get it. Then came a very noble person of a notable Syed family, Makhdoom Syed Safdar Ali Bokhari who earlier had remarkable research on music and dhammal therapy.
Mr. Bokhari is known as Baba Bokhari through out his loving followers who strongly believe that he is the real torch bearer for the distracted and those desperately looking for light and guidance. Mr. Bokhari is a practical man who does not ask people to do any thing unless he does it practically. So he came out with a brilliant idea of curing all type of diseases through the "Quranic radiations".
He says, "every alphabet of Quran radiates, it generates light and energy in the heart and mind, provided it is listened with deeper concentration. He gave a practical demonstration and the results were fascinating. What he did? He purchased the audio cassette of Surrah "Al-Rehman" a recitation of Qari Abdul Basit Abdul Samad, then he gathered the people, advised them to close their eyes, asked to empty their mind and feel the presence of GOD. The cassette was then played and everyone listened to it till end with deeper concentration. The recitation ended, he asked the people to open their eyes, majority were weeping, a few looked absolutely stunned only tears could be seen coming out of their eyes like anything. Then he served every individual with a half glass of water and said, "Close your eyes go deep into your heart and then say "ALLAH" 3 times in the heart and then drink water with closed eyes." They did so when he asked to open the eyes every one looked relaxed and comfortable they had tasted a sweet water which in fact was a normal tap water but absolute concentration created harmony between soul and body all connected to almighty and cured with his blessings. Now the question was how to deliver this message to the entire Muslim community.
If it is practised like the above it will take years to convey the message but thanks to the technology which helped and the same idea for the betterment of mankind was given to Pakistan Television Corporation which instantly approved it and a pilot programme with the title "Al-Rehman" was made by the senior programme producer Syed Shakir Uzair who earlier had produced QASEEDAH-BURDHA SHARIF a programme which attracted millions of people and had the distinction to cure the most fatal of diseases, the paralysis, still people use this programme as a treatment for the paralysis.
The pilot programme was a beautiful one, giving a new dimension to the religious programmes, PTVC approved the pilot and the programme was launched in Jan-2001. The coming programmes were recorded in different hospitals, villages, cities and attracted the entire TV viewers. Each programme included different location and multiple expressions of the people. The Quranic radiation gave a new hope and life to the most dejected one. An e-mail account firstname.lastname@example.com among with other telephone numbers were also given to the viewers for further contacts.
The entire experiment which was telecast covers more than 15000 people of various ages and suffering from different diseases. From the patient of headache to cancer, heart trouble and all type of physical disability were contacted treated and cured by the grace of the "ALLAH" all this happened on TV screen which really created a new hope and brought people out of absolute dejection.
The programme also included the expressions of the leading religious scholars from all over the country who added further flavour in the programme through multiple references defined in the Quran and Sunnah, the importance of Quranic radiation was highlighted.
While doing the experimentation in the hospitals, the doctors also became a part of it, many of them had remarkable feelings. I remember a doctor said, "we can suggest medicines not the remedy, "Shifa"" is from "ALLAH". The doctors also gave references of the "faith healing" concepts being practised all over the world. The programme clicked and indeed it was the need of the time. Many of the hospitals established sound system and started the recitation of "Al-Rehman". The results were astonishing, the frequency of patients reduced and curing ratio enhanced, the dejected one came into life.
The programme was telecast for 6 months on the national network and later shown on the prime TV Norway which covers a vast European population. The message is on, still people gather in different groups and get the benefit of the ultimate remedy.
The programme also included the message of its creator, Makhdoom Bokhari, "the whole sacred book, the Quran is "Shifa", I have taken Surrah "Al-Rehman" because it has great rhythm and the recitation of Qari Abdul Basit is very soothing and effective as he has recited from the deep of the heart". The one who recites and listen with deeper concentration does get the benefit, all you have to do is to feel its revelation in your heart. Always feel the presence of GOD, never be an ignorant.
Mr. Bokhari achieved what he had desired, a real service to mankind. A selfless human made worth of his life by giving a remarkable remedy to the sufferers and a guide line for the generations to follow. He did not charge a single penny from PTVC for his idea and research. He believes, "Money is like a snake, it bites you and generates anxiety and depression, once you become a victim to it you are deprived of the precious wealth, the peace of mind and heart. GOD says, "All the Muslims are brother of one another" so help your brother at the time of need. The prophet HAZRAT MOHAMMAD (S.A.W) said, "Choose only that thing for your brother which you prefer for your self". So Makhdoom Bokhari says, "When you are cured give this message to your fellow brothers, he might be needing it". This message is the continuity of the direction well defined in the last address of HAZRAT MOHAMMAD (S.A.W).

"Gov. John Kasich (R) has suffered mightily for his plan to restrict the collective bargaining rights of unionized state workers in Ohio. Though the Republican-controlled state legislature passed the law, known as Senate Bill 5, and Kasich has signed it, the optics of passage have been terrible and voters have turned on their new governor less than six months after he defeated a Democratic incumbent.
Now, as the fight over SB5 shifts to a massive ballot repeal initiative organized by labor, Democrats and progressives in Ohio, Kasich's got a new problem on his hands: the support of the state Chamber of Commerce, which broke with tradition and made Kasich the first gubernatorial candidate to ever get its endorsement, is fracturing. The break is slight at the moment, but a growing number businesses who support the union cause and/or serve union members are breaking with the Chamber -- and the man they helped propel into office.

When I looked at which basic ELT qualifications employers were looking for, someone suggested doing the same for more senior positions. I decided to separate managerial roles from university positions, and here I have just looked at managerial positions, starting from Assistant Director of Studies (ADOS) and moving up.

I agree with you that if someone want to move to esl management should take DELTA qualification.
I was surprised at the dominance of the DELTA- it has really made a comeback.

The new Vivian
Alexander minaudière collection features couture designs, engine-turned pure
silver bases, fine enamel, gemstones, and decorative metalwork.
When an early owner of Van Cleef & Arpels, noticed a wealthy client in 1930 insouciantly carrying her ladylike essentials in a tin cigarette case, he had an idea: What if he constructed a small luxury purse in silver or gold for a woman to carry lipstick, powder, and some cash? He could craft it in precious metals, accent with gems or beads, and incorporate fine enamel and decorative features. The purses, which he called minaudières, a French word meaning to smile coyly, were an instant success. Ever since, well-turned out women, whether on the red carpet or at other gala events across the world, have smiled coyly while carrying these delicate works of art.
Vivian Alexander minaudières begin with an engine-turned, guilloché-decorated, pure (.999) silver armature, or supporting base. Guilloché, a French word meaning "engine turning patterns," involves carving ornamental patterns into metal; the patterns are then visible through fine enameling. These bases are made exclusively for the company by a Russian émigré silversmith with a background in electrical engineering.
After the bases are created, artisans who have been carefully selected and trained by the company begin the slow, painstaking process of bringing to life Caldwell's artistic inspirations. The artisans themselves complement Caldwell's vision with unique and individualized skills in fine art decoration.
Among the fine details featured in Vivian Alexander minaudières are intricate designs using cloisonnè, an ancient metalworking technique for decorating objects. It involves using delicate strips of precious metal wire to create compartments that Vivian Alexander artisans fill with up to 10 different enamel colors and hues. The enamels are translucent, transparent, or opaque, and can be pearlized, swirled with gold and silver particles, or infused with contrasting embedded enamel colors. The purses are often decorated with gemstones, fine crystals, and other precious accents as well. Alligator skins from Louisiana and lizard skins from South America are also used to cover the silver base and to complement the enamel. In many cases, designs take the form of fine brooches or pendants, many of which can be removed and worn separately.

March is the official woman's history month-or "Herstory"-for a change.History, we are reminded is written by the winners,you could also add by men to that.But when we only see one side,or gender,or race or social statures views, we lose so much.We miss the big, colorful,chaotic picture that real life is. My Grandmother,May Pearl Arnold(b.19 Feb 1903.Burlington Junction,Missouri.d.5 Feb 1978,Oklahoma City,Oklahoma.)was not famous,or very educated.She did not take part in any history making events that I know of, other than the everyday life of woman of her time.But one day in 1918 her and a friend enjoyed a moment of rebellion and fun that is recorded in this photo and in the story told to me. My Grandma is the woman on the left,the girl on the right was a friend of hers and grandmas brother, Charley's, girl friend.What I remember of the story she told me was they decided to borrow her brothers clothes and they walked around the neighborhood dressed as boys.I guess this was very much frowned upon at the time because she told me the police stopped them and told them to go home and change! My Grandma loved a joke and they look so happy and innocent in this photo!I wish I had the little girl with her's name too.Nothing of the often hard times or 15 pregnancy's and nine living children that were to come coloring this day.And a reminder that the freedoms we enjoy as woman were not so long ago forbidden.This photo also came from Grandma.I don't know if it was the same day or not .The back says Aunt? and I believe I was told this was another moment of humor/rebellion.Maybe it was Halloween? I wish I had asked more questions,I was only a teenager at the time, but I am grateful to have these pictures showing a diffrent side to the women in my family.One with humor and a little bit of daring.Ordinary people doing something a bit out of the ordinary.
And in a bit of a side note, Mays daughter, my Aunt Jean passed on today.She was in ill health for some time and it was a release from pain.I have many fond memories of my aunt and wish her peace in her next journey.

Reba Helen Byers 1922-1994
Who to honor?It's like you don't want to leave anything out and it's all so important you never get around to starting because your afraid you won't do them justice.But they live for as long as we say their names so says the Mexican tradition.
My moms sister,my Aunt Helen. Reba Helen Byers, born April 22, 1922 in Arkansas, died December 24,1994 in Stockton CA. She was the oldest child of 9 who lived.And if anyone in my moms family could be said to try to forge them into a family it was her.I think she and I may have shared that hunger to find connections,to make family out of people who wanted to forget.In a family that was never really close she was the link between the siblings.She knew all the children and grandchildren names and who was expecting a new baby.She called and wrote and tried to keep everyone informed about the whereabouts and changes. The kids got out of my Grandfathers house as soon as they could.Aunt Helen got married I believe around 16 and had a baby girl,this was back in Oklahoma were the family lived.
A few years before she died I remember a conversation we had were I was asking her about the family and her early life.I remember the look of determination on her face when she told me about leaving Oklahoma and her teenage marriage."I was not going to live in a dirt floor shack eating beans for the rest of my life.I picked up my baby girl and hitchhiked to California." I can only imagine the courage it took for a poorly educated,raised in a rural area, woman of that time and place to make a decision like that and do it.This was during WW2 and she went to Oakland for awhile working in the war industry there and coffee shops .
My Aunt Helen spent her life working hard as a waitress like my Momma.She owned her own house eventually in Stockton on Ash St.,that was a point of stability in the family that came west to visit or stay. She would remodel and add onto that house herself with only a little help,this long before the days of Home Depot classes for woman home owners! It included putting in a indoor bathroom sometime in the late 60's.I remember the walk in the dark on a wooden walk way to the outhouse when I was a little girl and being afraid I was going to fall in! Few of the kids in my moms family had much education,my mother maybe a 3rd grade one,but I can recall many times Aunt Helen talking about the importance of going to school,of getting a education.Two of her 3 daughters would go to college and I remember how very proud she was of her children and grandchildren getting a education. She liked to garden and grow cactus.I still have some plants that come from starts she gave me.There was a Christmas cactus in her little green house she built out back that she had for over 20 years,it must have been 2 feet across at one point.There was a huge old fig tree in her back yard that we sat under when it was hot.The smell of a fig tree in the California valley heat is like no other,it always takes me back there.I remember playing in the yard with my cousins when I was small. Clowns,I remember Aunt Helen loved clowns and had a collection of them. When my mother had a breakdown when my brothers where still small,Aunt Helen took her sister in and cared for her until she was well enough to return to her children.My dad told me my mom had done the same for her in the past.They were close in their own way that we did not always understand I think.
Helen died on Christmas eve.My mom would not go to the funeral,which upset my cousins very much.She rarely left the house by this point unless it was essential and would not go out otherwise.I think in a way she felt if she did not go it was not real.Her sister was still over there in Stockton-alive.That's the way mom dealt with unpleasant things the last years of her own life.
I did attend her funeral mass.In a small old wooden church in a rough,working class neighborhood her children,grandchildren and friends said their goodbyes.Her faith was a important part of my aunties life and she was at peace with her god when she passed. My Aunt Helen was cremated and my cousins took her ashes back to Oklahoma to put with her parents.
I still miss her being over there. She was a rock in our family sea of instability.

Veterans Day
I take a moment here to honor the service of my ancestors in the armed forces of the U.S. On my mothers side I have uncles who served in WW2,Korea and Vietnam.My Grandpa George W. Byers served in WW1.And I have one,James Calvert, for sure and possibly two Great Great grandfathers who served in the Civil War.James survived Andersonville prison camp. My father Vernon Ruse and two of his three brothers served in WW2.My dad spoke little about his service in the war.His discharged papers were lost when I was teen and the records burned in the Veterans fire so we have no paper trail of his service beyond the few recollections he shared and what I remember from reading his discharge papers as a child.I remember he had Bronze and Silver stars,a French sounding cross something and a Purple Heart.My father served in North Africa under Patton and was wounded and sent to England.And he was part of the march across Europe that began with D-Day.He always wished he could return and see Europe "when it wasn't tore all to hell". Manuel John Velasquez was my fathers baby half brother.He served in the Navy,my father in the Army and dads older brother Joseph Ruse in the Air Force.My uncle Stanley, Manuel's full brother was 4-f because of his vision and he worked in agriculture. I can only imagine the wonder a young man from a small valley farm town with limited education must have felt at visiting tropical posts of call. Manuel served on the U.S.S. Boise.On the evening of August 11,1942 at a place called Cape Esperance near Guadalcanal in the Pacific,the Boise engaged the enemy.The Boise sustained much damage during the battle and 107 men died.My uncle Manuel was one of them,they were all buried at sea.He was posthumously awarded the Purple Heart.His name is inscribed on the wall of Honor at the Manila American Cemetery and on the war memorial in Tracy CA. the town he joined up from. I only remember my dad talking about Manuel a few times,about how he got bit by a squirrel as a child and the older brothers got in trouble for not keeping a close enough watch on him!I have never seen a picture of him if one even exists.I still need to apply for his military records through the freedom of information act, as I would like more detail about his service and the night he died. I remember my father sitting in my living room about a month or so before the leukemia killed him when I was 24.I don't remember how we got on the subject but I asked about Manuel.I can still remember the way my fathers voice sounded when he said"my little baby brother Manuel." The grief,the loss,over 30 years later.Time does not heal all wounds,some losses are forever.

What did your ancestors read?
Abe Books is a Internet seller of books with a amazing selection.They have just sent me a email called "Trench Literature-Reading in WW 1,by Richard Davies, Udo Goellmann & Sara Melendre" http://www.abebooks.co.uk/books/world-war-soldiers-reading-kipling/trench-literature.shtml?cm_mmc=nl-_-nl-_-091107-g00-trenchB-_-01cta.If you have ancestors who served in WW1 in is very interesting to read what the soldiers themselves were likely reading for entertainment.The article even delves into the different reading material that a college educated officer might have read versus the rank and file and what soldiers other than Americans would have been reading. A bit of history to add to our ancestor research.I don't work for Abe Books or anything though I have bought numerous books through them successfully and find them a great source for rare and out of print or used books for my genealogy research.

Music of our live's
Last night on Randy Seavers Genea-Musings blog http://www.geneamusings.com/2009/09/saturday-night-genealogy-fun-your-all.html#links he did his Saturday night genealogy fun post.It was basically name your all time favorite song. It was great fun to read everyone's posts but I chickened out on participating. However it got me thinking about my mothers memorial service and the music c.d. I made for it. My mom Marie Francis Byers, b. 4-10-1927 died June 4,2006.She was cremated and we did a simple memorial at my brothers house.My brother and I talked about doing some music for the memorial.I sat down at my computer and strangely enough songs came flooding back to me.Songs I had not heard in 40 years,song titles my parents had said but I had never really heard the song. With the wonders of the internet I was able to make a c.d. of the songs our mother sang to us as children,like,"How much is that doggie in the window?"and "Que Sera Sera".I was able to hear for the first time a song my mother said was one of her favorites,one that she would hear at dances she attended before she married my father,"Cherry Pink and Apple-blossom White".Songs my parents played when we were kids like,"Make the World Go Away" and "Help me make it through The Night". It is amazing how much music can trigger memories,like scents,songs seem to capture moments in time in our lives and just hearing a few notes from a song can take us back to times,places and people who are no longer with us. I sometimes wonder about how much music was a part of my ancestors lives,what they listened to and played.I know one branch of my Castro family were very musically inclined and I believe there is a photo on my mothers side with my grandpa holding a guitar. I wonder, have others written down what music their parents liked?Your grandparents?These are the things that make these people real and alive and not just names and dates on a paper.It's never to soon the write our favorite songs down as well,thanks Randy!But I think I am going to have to go with my top ten-or twenty!

After not being able to write for awhile it's nice to sit down and let my thoughts run.On Saturday I watched the funeral of Teddy Kennedy.For my whole life there has been a Kennedy in Washington.I know this family evokes strong feelings in people one way or another.all I can say is I'm a blue collar,working class girl from a family of the same and though they were far removed from any life my people ever lived I grew up knowing they worked for people like us.Most of what I remember about John Kennedy was learned after the fact as I was only 3 when he died.I do have a blurry black and white picture of me in front of a t.v. set with him on it.It could not have been long before he died.Bobby I have a real,live memory of.He stopped in Stockton at the Southern Pacific railroad station that was just a few blocks from where we lived just 6 days before he was assassinated.I remember my dad pushing through the crowd to the train and holding my brother Vernon who was 3 up to him and Bobby reaching down to shake my brothers little hand.Shortly after that I moved away from Stockton forever.
Watching Teddy's funeral did evoke the end of something,maybe the knowledge that for those of us with memory's of the brothers lives our time is passing swiftly .For me the memory for Ted will be it getting so dark you could not make out the casket anymore so they showed the eternal flame and the bugler playing taps,flag at half mast, silhouetted dark against the lit building on the hill above.Darkness giving privacy at the end to a family who's life's and death's have been so very public.
I will be 50 in November,my parents have become ancestors,I have become the one of the old ones.Not everyone is given that gift.

Madrid (AFP) June 16, 2007
Some 4,000 environmental campaigners gathered in Barcelona on Saturday to press the government to commit Spain to switch fully to renewable energy sources by 2050, Greenpeace said. Greenpeace in February began a campaign to urge Spain to boost use of renewables, although the country is already a European leader in the field.
Eva Salana, spokeswoman for the environmental pressure group, told the Europa Press news agency that "it is technically and economically possible" to achieve the aim.
Greenpeace used Saturday's meeting to boost public awareness of the issue through an exhibition dubbed "time tunnel," showing scenarios of how countries could work together to combat climate change.
In January, Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero ruled out increasing Spain's reliance on nuclear energy for the time being, saying that nuclear expansion "does not figure in the government's plans."
The Socialist government promised in its 2004 election manifesto to abandon progressively the Spanish nuclear programme, which currently accounts for 23 percent of national electricity production.
But he added that the Socialist energy manifesto for the 2008 general election had not yet been drawn up.
He also noted that "we must rely much more on renewable and alternative energy sources and have a common European policy on energy matters."
Spain currently has eight functioning nuclear plants, relatively few compared with other countries such as France, Britain or Germany.
In March, the government revealed that the Canary Island of El Hierro would by 2009 receive 100 percent of its electricity supply from renewable energy sources via a combination of hydroelectricity and wind power.
A 54.3 million euro (65 million dollar) scheme being developed on the island is designed to cut the island's annual carbon dioxide emissions by 18,700 tonnes.
Spain is second only to Germany in Europe in terms of installed wind power capacity while EU states recently targeted a 20 percent share of overall energy production for the bloc by 2010, compared with a projected three percent for Japan, for example.

A program to develop gas deposits in East Siberia and the Far East will require 2,400 billion rubles (about $92 billion) in investment by 2030, an official of Russia's industry and energy ministry said Friday. At its meeting June 15, the government commission for the fuel and energy complex discussed a program to create a single system of gas production, transportation, and supply in East Siberia and the Far East, taking into account potential exports to China and the Asia-Pacific region.

Frequently Asked Questions
Below are some of the most frequently asked questions regarding sexual assault on campus. If you have further questions you are encouraged to contact Kelsey Keimig (firstname.lastname@example.com), the Assistant Director of Sexual Assault Prevention and Advocacy, directly.
I am scared to report a sexual assault because I was drinking and am under 21. Can I get in to trouble for under-age drinking if I report?
NDSU is committed to responding to cases of sexual assault with sensitivity and care. It is the general practice of the office not to put students who have been victims of violence through additional conduct processes regarding underage drinking. However, if warranted and appropriate, staff from Student Life or Residence Life may want to meet with the student to discuss their alcohol use. If you have been assaulted and are scared to report, please feel free to contact Kelsey Keimig, Assistant Director of Sexual Assault Prevention and Advocacy– she can provide you with resources, and further discuss reporting options for your specific situation.
Is it possible to report a sexual assault anonymously?
Yes. You can file an anonymous report of sexual assault to NDSU by filling out an Anonymous Report Form. This reporting system can also be used by third-party individuals who have witnessed a sexual assault or have information that an assault occurred.
If I have been sexually assaulted by someone who lives in my residence hall, can the university help me find different housing?
Yes! It is your right to feel safe where you live, work, study, and play. If you feel unsafe where you live please contact your hall director - they can assist you with securing temporary housing.
How many sexual assaults occur on the campus each year?
NDSU, like all universities, is required by law to report publicly the number of reported forcible and non-forcible rapes on campus each year. In 2008, three forcible rapes were reported. They all took place in residence halls; however, these numbers are not consistent with nation-wide statistics. According to a 2005 report from the United States Department of Justice, approximately 3% of all college women will be victims of rape or attempted rape each year. We can estimate that at least 150 women are victimized at NDSU each year. For the full-report please follow this link: www.ojp.usdoj.gov/nij
Can men be victims of sexual assault?
Yes, men can be and are victims of sexual assault. Less than 5% of adolescent and adult sexual assault victims are male and when men are assaulted, their perpetrator is generally male – thus the bulk of both the research on sexual assault and prevention efforts focus on women victims¹. NDSU recognizes that men are victims of sexual assault and is incorporating this knowledge into prevention efforts on campus. If you are a man who has been sexually assaulted, it is important to remember that it is not your fault and that there are resources available to you. Follow this link for more information on options for getting help now.
Where can I access the NDSU Sexual Assault and Sexual Misconduct policy?
Information on sexual assault and sexual misconduct policies for students can be found in the Code of Student Conduct.
My friend has been sexually assaulted, what can I do to help him or her?
Helping a friend as they recover from sexual assault can be an overwhelming experience. It is important to remember, it is not your role to "fix" the situation (in fact, taking control away from a victim again can re-victimize). As a friend, it is most important that you show your friend that you believe them and are there to listen when they want to talk. As a friend you can also let them know that resources are available to them.
Many people who help friends recover from sexual assault find that they also need help processing their own feelings surrounding the experience. Counselors at the NDSU Counseling Center are trained professionals ready to listen and help.
I want to help prevent sexual assault on campus. What can I do?
There are lots of opportunities to prevent sexual assault on campus! Sexual Assault Prevention Programs is new to the NDSU campus and just starting to develop programs. We welcome your ideas and you are encouraged to contact Kelsey Keimig, Assistant Director of Sexual Assault Prevention and Advocacy ( email@example.com ) to further discuss how you can be involved.
What can I, as a parent of an NDSU student, do to protect my son or daughter from sexual assault while on campus?
First, it is important to discuss sexual assault with your son or daughter before they come to campus as a freshman. Studies have shown that the freshman year is when female students are most vulnerable to becoming victims of sexual assault. While we do our best to provide students with information regarding sexual assault early on in their academic career, the more conversations they have on the topic, the better prepared they will be. It is especially important that parents speak with their male students regarding appropriate behavior, as well as the potential dangers of combining alcohol and sex.
Did you know?
The Assistant Director of Sexual Assault Prevention Programs is located in the Office of Student Life. This position is not a conduct officer. It was created to serve as an advocate for victims of sexual assault on campus and to develop prevention initiatives. Students can contact the current Assistant Director to be directed to resources and/ or report an assault.

The Experience: I Ate Hemp Chocolate
When our Hemp chocolates landed at Sakara HQ, it was like Christmas morning.
While I'm a bit too anxious of a person to indulge in cannabis (comprised primarily of THC + CBD) on a regular basis, I do lust after the idea of it. Relaxation, introspection, playtime, freedom, joy...and all without any harmful chemicals, sugars, hangovers, etc. It always seems, from afar, like the perfect way to unwind, let go, and treat myself after a long day. Unfortunately, it's just not something this fragile psyche can get behind.
So when a beautiful glass jar of Hemp chocolates arrived on my desk, promising to help with "anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, epilepsy, inflammation, depression, and PMS, " I as though my prayers had been answered (#thoughtstothings, baby). A little too anxious to take it at work (did I mention I'm an anxious person?), away from my boyfriend and away from my couch, I waited until I was back home to dive in for the first time.
When I got home, I set the scene: I took a quick shower, put on my pajamas, and, instead of pouring a glass of the Argentinian Malbec sitting on my wine rack, popped a pyramidal morsel of Hemp chocolate into my mouth. The taste was chocolatey and earthy all at once, pretty much what you'd expect if you were to combine cannibidiol with cacao. I chewed slowly and delicately and let the different flavors dance around my mouth and seep into my tastebuds. I closed my eyes. Took a deep breath. And [anxiously] waited.
It's unclear to me if anything I felt in the hours following was actually something I was experiencing biochemically in my body...or entirely psychosomatic.
Was I high?
1,000% no
Was I relaxed.
1,000% yes.
Did my body feel good, heavy, and calm?
Yes, please, and thank you.
Did I miss my glass of wine?
Not even an ounce.
I felt good, I felt relaxed, I felt at ease, but no sensation was intense enough in my body or mind for me to be able to attribute it to the chocolate I had eaten, rather than the couch I was laying on or the dog cuddled by my side.
Being the dedicated investigative journalist that I am, I continued to eat Hemp chocolate for the following several weeks, and even started to experiment with eating two in one go. I ate them at work a few times when I felt my anxiety bubbling inside. I ate them before my favorite morning yoga class. I ate them before heading to the train station at 5:30 PM on a Friday. I ate them before drawing a hot bath, filling it with salt and oils, and dipping my body in inch by inch.
The more often I ate the chocolate and the more morsels I ate in a single sitting, the more I could feel its effects seeping into my cells, relaxing my muscles, calming my nervous system, and allowing me space, quiet, and time. While the effect I have experienced thus far has certainly been mild, I'm confident to state it's a full body relaxation effect I wouldn't have noticed and wouldn't have been able to access without being open to these little babies of plant power.
And that Argentinian Malbec I forwent the very first day I tried Hemp chocolate? It's starting to collect dust in my wine rack - and that's fine by me.

Just today I upgraded two monowall installations with one of our customers.
A few ours later he called. No more VPN and no more firewall :(
When connecting a screen to the machine and rebooting it, it became
quickly appearent why: it was trying to mount /cf uncleanly, and mount
was complaining about running fsck... Needless to say, the only way
to get the system back up was reformatting the CF and uploading the
config. It worked...
However, this never happend on the way lower versions they were running,
(pb13 something), and since it happend on two geographical seperate
locations, i'm hard pressed to believe the units are at fault. Could
the new FreeBSD kernel be alergic to lots of mounts/unmounts?
PS. The bug happend wehen I was clicking along in the new traffic shaper,
which was NOT yet enabled at the time. However, I presume every time I
press 'Save', it will save on CF.... Dunno what exactly happend at the
console, there is no screen attached during normal run hours.
Hope somebody notices something simalar, so we can compare notes.
Oh, the systems were upgraded to generic-pc-pb25r595.img

Poll Results: Which Free Agent Pitcher Should The Mets SignDecember 27, 2010
Last week I ran a poll and asked you guys to pick which free agent pitcher you want the most. Below are the results. Brandon Webb and Chris Young tied at 37.5%. Even though I voted for Chris Young, I was surprised to see that Brandon Webb did not get the overwhelming amount of votes I thought he'd get since he's a former Cy Young award winning and the most recognizable name on the list. Metsblog reported yesterday that Webb has signed with the Rangers, so looks like he's off the market at this point anyway.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights announced today that it will deploy videographers to counter voter suppression at polling places in Colorado, Ohio, and Wisconsin.
Through its partnership with Video the Vote, The Leadership Conference and its sister organization, The Leadership Conference Education Fund, which are both nonpartisan, will send teams of videographers to key polling places to record voters' experiences. Under the auspices of The Education Fund's "Every Voter Counts" campaign, the videographers will help ensure that problems or barriers related to voting procedures are documented and reported to authorities in a timely manner. The teams will also work in conjunction with local partner groups and state-based election protection coalitions.
"Voting is the language of democracy," said Wade Henderson, president and CEO of The Leadership Conference and The Education Fund. "And the right to cast a vote free of intimidation has never faced a more sophisticated or coordinated attack. Our videographers are proud to join local and national efforts to make sure that every voter counts in this election."
Safeguarding voting rights is even more important this year given widespread, coordinated efforts to enact new voter restrictions in states across the county, along with announced intentions of organizations and individuals to challenge voter qualifications at the polls.
The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights is a coalition charged by its diverse membership of more than 200 national organizations to promote and protect the rights of all persons in the United States. The Leadership Conference works toward an America as good as its ideals.
The Leadership Conference Education Fund builds public will for federal policies that promote and protect the civil and human rights of all persons in the United States. The Education Fund's campaigns empower and mobilize advocates around the country to push for progressive change in the United States. For more information on The Leadership Conference and The Education Fund, visit www.civilrights.org.

|From: Kyle Smith (airfoil at bellsouth.net)
Date: Wed Jun 13 20:43:49 EDT 2007
Today I was running a benchmark on several functions, which I had run before in v369.100, and I noticed a distinct difference in be the behavior of these functions as they were given ever larger lists at the end of the run, when they are given lists that previously would have caused at least one of them to exhaust the available memory. On the final run they are given lists which contain on the order of 156,000,000 symbol?'s. I'm not sure how much memory is required to store a quoted unbound symbol in a list. But let's just you use a two 32bit words for each pair, as a minimum, for the pointers to the car and cdr. That would be eight bytes, making the memory requirement for a single list on the order of 1gb, and the function is required to construct a flattened copy of the argument list, which brings the total, conservatively, to something like 2gb's of memory required. I'm running this benchmark on a Mac Pro with 4gb of physical memory, of which only a portion of the last gb is available for use by anything other than devices. So, I'm not surprised that the program would cause a heap allocation error. Whats surprising is that, instead of crashing as in v369.100, the run times explode beginning at list lengths (not to be confused with the number of elements in the list) of 1.8 million, and the hard drive is heard to be thrashing, where as I normally can't hear the drive at all. The benchmark completed without a single error, but there was a distinctly non-linear growth in run times between lists of length 1.8 to 2.0 million. If there was a change, it is a welcome one. Just curious if I was seeing the benefit of an improvement, of if something else was up? Thanks, --kyle
