The Sakatti Project
Situated 150 km north of the Arctic Circle in Finland, the Sakatti project is a significant Copper-Nickel-Platinum Group Elements grassroots discovery made by Anglo American.
Our approach
Sustainable and shared value
For Anglo American, we believe in the wealth of opportunities here in northern Finland. We have been exploring in the area for the past decade and we were very fortunate to make the Sakatti discovery which we hope will become part of Lapland's mining heritage.
Responsible Mining
Like other Anglo American projects and operations around the world, we are committed to achieving high standards of environmental stewardship during all phases of project development.

University students normally encounter various stresses during their college experience. These may include coping with new academic demands, feelings of anxiety or depression, making and maintaining new friendships, and adjusting to changing relationships with parents and other family members. However, stress can become overwhelming and threaten your college experience and academic progress.
University Counseling Services (UCS) can help you resolve your personal concerns and manage your situation. Counseling can give you valuable feedback, a different perspective on your situation, and provide you with new ways of coping.
UCS offers a range of psychological and mental health counseling services for current students of Pittsburg State University. Services are provided in a supportive and confidential atmosphere. Sessions are offered to help students with a variety of problem areas such as:
- Depression, anxiety
- Family problems, communication skills
- Relationships, self-esteem
- Stress, substance misuse/abuse
Many problems can be addressed using a brief, solution-focused approach, often requiring only a few visits. Individual counseling sessions are usually from 25 to 50 minutes in length depending on the needs of the student.
University Counseling Services has contracted with the Crawford County Health Department to provide Pittsburg State University students with a dietitian to help support them with their dietary needs. The dietitian offers nutritional services to students in a supportive and confidential atmosphere. The dietitian will work individually with students to plan a program of nutritional services to meet their needs in compliance with state and licensing boards. Individual sessions are usually from 25 to 50 minutes in length depending on the needs of the students.
Referral to Other Agencies
Students requiring longer-term counseling, psychiatric services, vocational counseling, academic advising, or academic/study-skills assistance are referred to other campus offices or community agencies for assistance as appropriate.

Cleavers are called meat cleavers because that is what they are designed for, they are not meant for chopping through bones. Instead of wrecking some knives ask the butcher to cut up the chickens for you. Are you sure you want to be feeding chicken bones to your dogs?
I had a customer a couple of months ago who was intent on making her own cat food. She was adamant about having the bone in the food for calcium. I suggested the butcher cutting up the chickens for her. Failing that buying some inxspensive cleavers because she will wreck them.

Birmingham-Southern College program introduces
students to leadership, service
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-Forty high school students
from around the nation have been selected to spend a week of their
summer breaks on the campus of Birmingham-Southern College learning
how to become leaders and servants in their communities.
Student Leaders in Service, now in its ninth
year, is a residential program for rising high school juniors and
seniors that combines academic coursework on leadership theory with
participation in community service projects.
This year, BSC is offering a program specifically
for young women. The first Student Leaders in Service week will
be held June 16-21 for high school females with the theme "Choices:
Leadership from a Female Perspective." Activities, panels,
and movies will focus on high school females' leadership styles
and the positive choices they have academically, professionally,
physically, and spiritually. The service projects will include the
YWCA and First Light Women's Shelter. A panel will address women's
civic responsibility with speakers such as local TV personality
Fran Curry and former Child Times editor and founder Kay Kornmeier.
The second Student Leaders in Service week,
June 23-28, will be a coed program exploring leadership models and
community involvement. Participants will explore the challenges
of working with groups and meet with influential community leaders.
Service projects will include St. Andrews Community Kitchen, Urban
Ministry, and Outreach Inc.
Both weeks will include tours of the Birmingham
Civil Rights Institute and the Southern Environmental Center. Each
program will conclude with a mock City Council to determine how
to fund the various agencies the students assisted during the week
based on budget proposals submitted by students representing those
"The programs offer wonderful opportunities
for students to explore concepts of leadership outside of their
high school environments and begin to understand why problems exist
in the community and what they can do about them," said Jeanne
Jackson, BSC's director of leadership studies and one of the program's
Students from 14 states, including Alabama,
California, Colorado, Indiana, Nebraska, and Washington, D.C., will
begin their week with a ropes course promoting trust among the group,
and work throughout the week with BSC faculty and staff members
on understanding their own leadership styles.
Student Leaders in Service is sponsored by the college's Hess Center
for Leadership and Service.

I sometimes get asked if contemplative prayer is "really Christian." When someone asks that question, it's usually because they have noticed the similarity between practices like centering prayer and eastern disciplines such as zazen or transcendental meditation. The fact that many practitioners of centering prayer or other silent prayer forms tend to be interested in interfaith dialogue is sometimes worrisome to others, who do not have a sense of being called to interfaith dialogue and who only … [Read more...]

Restaurateurs and sommeliers have hit back against speculation that restaurants will turn to their wine lists to stay profitable by hiking up margins and using lesser-known wines to disguise this.
In a story on the future of dining, industry consultant Tony Eldred predicted mark-ups of 250 per cent could happen sometime soon.
Eldred says "a radical deterioration in the profit margin of food" has forced restaurants to look to other areas to make money.
"Traditionally, until about five years ago, they would have put a 120 per cent margin on [a bottle of wine] and, after taking their costs out, they would have netted maybe 40 per cent."
Substantially higher running costs combined with intense competition mean today's restauranteur needs to double that margin to make the same profit, he says. This is where a carefully constructed wine list comes into play.
"Restaurants don't want to put wines that you would know on their list because you will have a fair idea what they cost. So what they're trying to do now is to use their experience in wine tasting and buying to identify those wines that are 'batting above their league', the really good quality wines being sold cheaply," Eldred says.
"These are wines you can put a high margin on without people perceiving poor value for money."
But restaurateur Barry McDonald, owner of award-winning restaurant Café Sopra and providore Fratelli Fresh in Sydney, says the practice shows "no regard for the customer".
"And if you have no regard for the customer you're going to have no customers in a very short period of time," he says.
"There's a lot to be said for volume and we've always worked on the basis that volume gives you slightly lower margins but a better result.
"So rather than trying to hide behind unknown wines, you're more likely to do the opposite and show you're a value proposition for the customer."
Sommelier Pierre Stock, of Melbourne's long-running restaurant France-Soir said customers had "enough experience and awareness of wine" to know what a bottle was worth.
"You don't take people for being silly … We put boutique wines on our list because we believe the winemaker has done a fantastic job and the wine is good … We don't believe in putting a wine on a wine list because we think nobody knows it and we'll be able to make more money out of it," he says.
"I'm surprised with that [idea], because it wouldn't even cross our minds."
But James Viles, owner and director of two-hat restaurant Biota Dining in Bowral, said some restaurants are already looking for lesser-known labels and applying a higher mark-up.
"I don't see a problem with it because people are coming to a restaurant to experience something they can't get anywhere else," he says.
"To have a garage wine that only had a release of 30 or 40 bottles for instance, I think there should be a premium on that."
However, he added that "balance is crucial" because restaurants can't afford to "just appeal to one kind of market".
"The engineering of the wine list is crucial, especially in the current market. Some weeks we only sell the expensive wines, then you go through a slump and everyone's buying in the lower market. As my father says, it's harder to pick than a broken nose."
If not wines, cocktails and spirits could be where the real money lies, according to industry consultant Carlos Swinton-Lee, owner of Bar & Restaurant Consultants.
"What I think we'll see is expanded cocktail lists," he says. "Larger restaurants all have bars attached to them now with cocktail lists and quality tequilas and rums and bourbons. The margins are much better in cocktails than they are in wines."


text: Politics 28 August 2009 Five of the Best The top five comment pieces from today's papers Sign up for our weekly email * Print HTML In the Times, the historian Felipe Fernández-Armesto argues against the Malthusian terror that emerges as the UK population grows: Population increase causes none of the problems commonly ascribed to it. We face crises of biodiversity and resources -- but because of our madcap consumption, not our numbers. The Conservative MEP Daniel Hannan writes in the Daily Telegraph on the growing intolerance of dissenting MPs: My point is that we seem to have lost the notion that a backbencher speaks for himself. I like David Cameron, and want him to be prime minister, not least so that Britain stops racking up debt. But the idea that I therefore agree with him on every issue is, when you think about it, silly. The Economist's Bagehot column discusses the lack of talent on the Labour and Conservative front benches and suggests that a US-style system of outside appointments could remedy this: The solution is simple. Prime ministers should reach beyond Westminster for more of their hires. The more technocratic departments could be led by captains of industry or accomplished scientists. Some might even survive handovers of power, like Robert Gates, the defence secretary retained by Barack Obama. The Independent's Johann Hari criticises the new film version of Naomi Klein's The Shock Doctrine, which Klein has publicly distanced herself from. In the Wall Street Journal, Bjørn Lomborg explores the technological solutions to climate change: One proposal would have boats spray seawater droplets into clouds above the sea to make them reflect more sunlight back into space -- augmenting the natural process where evaporating ocean sea salt helps to provide tiny particles for clouds to form around. › Is it the end for humanity?

Publishers Weekly Reviews
There's something exhilarating about viewing Nelson's (Heart and Soul) paintings of Dr. King and the March on Washington while reading the words of the speech King gave that day; it's hard to imagine a better representation of their historical significance. Nelson pictures King in front of a forest of microphones, his brow furrowed with concentration. "I have a dream today," he repeats as Nelson shows him in sharp profile—it almost seems possible to feel the warmth of his breath. "With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together," he continues, accompanied by a painting of two clasped hands, black and white. Though it's a clichéd image, Nelson's up-close rendering of the hands gives the picture startling freshness. American landscapes glow, and schoolchildren of every color look viewers in the eye, full of confidence. The speech is lightly edited in a way that makes it understandable for children of any age; a CD of the speech is enclosed. A glorious interpretation of a bedrock moment in 20th-century history. All ages. Agent: Steven Malk, Writers House. (Oct.)

"There is a hole...in your mind."
- – The Assassin to Sinclair
The Minbari assassin was a member of the Wind Swords - a radical Minbari clan - who attempted to assassinate Ambassador Kosh and frame Cmdr. Jeffrey Sinclair for the murder.[1][2]
In 2257, as Babylon 5 neared its one year anniversary of going online, the Minbari Assassin was sent to the station with the intent to assassinate the incoming Vorlon ambassador, Kosh. He had been sent by his clan, the Wind Swords, to frame Jeffrey Sinclair for the murder, disrupting the new and still fragile peace of Babylon 5.
He was to meet Del Varner to buy a changeling net before arriving at the station but Varner was delayed. Instead he continued to travel on the Narn vessel and used a pod to burn through the station's hull. One aboard, he quickly tracked down Varner, killing him and using the net to assume his identity. The assassin was then able to take the form of Jeffrey Sinclair and poisoned the ambassador through a "patch" he applied to the Vorlon's hand.
When the station crew unearthed that someone had killed Varner and possessed the net, they were able to corner the assassin. Sinclair himself fought him, critically injuring him and proving his innocence at the same moment. Rather than surrender, the assassin activated a bomb on himself, after telling Sinclair that he had a "Hole in his mind." Sinclair managed to avoid the blast, with some help from Delenn, who apologized for the actions of the Wind Swords.
- "The Gathering"
- "And the Sky Full of Stars" (flashback)
There has been no in-universe explanation as to why the assassin's bone crest is shaped like that of a female Minbari.

NEW YORK (Dec. 27)
The United Palestine Appeal today issued the following statement regarding an invitation addressed to it by the Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds to attend a meeting on Dec. 27 for the purpose of further consideration of a United Jewish Appeal for 1941:
"In the statement attributed to Mr. Sidney Hollander in the Jewish Telegraphic Agency Bulletin of Dec. 27 it is not pointed out that the United Palestine Appeal accepted the invitation of the Council of Federations to participate in a meeting on Dec. 17 at which time representatives of the United Palestine Appeal, the Joint Distribution Committee and the Council were present. There was a prolonged discussion lasting several hours during which the United Palestine Appeal made a substantial concession for the sake of unity which was not accepted.
"The Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds, although recognizing that negotiations were in progress between the United Palestine Appeal and the Joint Distribution Committee, waited two moths, during which negotiations dragged on, without doing anything in the situation. This was unlike the attitude which the Council adopted in previous years.
"When negotiations finally broke down, the Council stepped into the picture and asked for a conference. In the meantime the position originally taken by the Joint Distribution Committee at a meeting with the United Palestine Appeal on Oct. 31 had not changed. Despite that fact, however, the United Palestine Appeal accepted the invitation of the Council to participate in a final session. When no other proposals were forthcoming the Administrative Committee of the United Palestine adopted its decision to undertake an independent campaign. The fact that no agreement could be reached was fully demonstrated in the joint statement issued on Dec. 24 by Rabbi Jonah B. Wise and Dr. Abba Hillel Silver announcing the dissolution of the United Jewish Appeal.
"The United Palestine Appeal is conducting a campaign for $12,000,000 in 1941. It trusts that these needs will be met. It is the function of the Council of Federations, representing all points of view in the community, to share with the United Palestine Appeal and the Joint Distribution Committee in the task of impressing upon the Jews of America that greater generosity must be forthcoming in 1941 to meet our common requirements."
Paul Baerwald and Edward M.M. Warburg, chairman and co-chairman of the Joint Distribution Committee, telegraphed the following message to key Jewish leaders throughout the country:
"We of the Joint Distribution Committee are anxious to present the picture of our needs and our general campaign problems, but not until the expiration of the 1940 United Jewish Appeal. Thereafter we can consider all the facts, together with colleagues and community leaders throughout the country, in ample time to meet our responsibilities in these critical days both as Americans and as Jews. We urge that no one commit himself or his community to programs or budgets until the American Jewish responsibility can be studied and appraised as a whole."

Exposing the false 'facts' created by the media in the Zimmerman-Martin case
When a False Narrative Runs into Reality
It has been said many times by many different writers and commentators, including me, that if Trayvon Martin had been White, or Zimmerman Black, there would never have been a trial over the tragic shooting in February last year. The reasons for the trial were purely political and racial, but even now, in the aftermath of the verdict, you can hear people continue to parrot remarks about Trayvon being "profiled" by Zimmerman, or that Zimmerman "disobeyed" police instructions by continuing to "pursue" Martin, and was therefore at fault. The trouble with these two assertions is that the first lacks any objective, factual evidence, and the second is completely false. In fact, most of what I would call the "cultural knowledge" of the Trayvon Martin case constitutes a false narrative, or a set of underlying "facts" that are simply not true at all, but which many people either don't bother to question, or continue to repeat even after they have been disproved.
One of the problems with a false narrative like the commonly accepted Trayvon Martin story is that when it is honestly and objectively assessed, it falls apart completely, and that is exactly what happened with the Trayvon narrative during the trial. In a criminal court, logic and evidence reign supreme. Jurors are literally instructed against allowing their feelings and sympathies to influence their verdict, and allegations like "profiling" a victim must be proved if they are to carry any weight. In the criminal court, the false Trayvon narrative ran into the buzz saw of objectivity, and was revealed, at least within that venue, to have no substance. There was no evidence supporting Trayvon's supposed profiling; in fact it may have been Trayvon who racially profiled Zimmerman. Trayvon wasn't being pursued, but he may in fact have been "stalking" Zimmerman; how else do you plausibly explain that four minutes in which Martin easily could have returned home unmolested if he had wished to? All the commonly "known" facts exchanged and traded within the popular culture were stripped-away one by one and revealed to be false or mistaken. The only reason anyone was surprised at the verdict was because they had bought into that false narrative. In fact, the only reason there was a trial at all was due to various public officials who were influenced by that false narrative in one way or another.
Among the things I find somewhat amazing is the number of people I still hear claiming that Trayvon was "profiled," that Zimmerman is a "wanna-be cop," that Zimmerman "disobeyed police instructions," or Trayvon was "murdered," even after all these "facts" have been conclusively disproved during the trial. People hear others repeat assertions or details that are untrue, don't bother checking the facts for themselves, and the false narrative lives on, despite having run up against the real world of a trial and fallen apart.
The Zimmerman trial is far from a unique example of a false narrative creating public opinion. The political left quite literally trades in false narratives in order to drive their policy goals. How often have you heard same sex marriage framed exclusively as an issue of discrimination and homophobia, when in truth it is an effort by a minority to force a change in the legal definition of the very word marriage. Global Warming is claimed to be "settled science," supported by an overwhelming consensus of scientists, and only opposed by "deniers." The reality is, there is not actual scientific evidence in support of the theory that CO2 is a major cause of warming, and according to their own measurements, there has been no warming at all for about 20 years. The whole Trayvon/Zimmerman story grew out of the left's obsession with race, and the relentless agenda of the left-wing media to try to find and play-up the racial angle in every story, at least when the victim is Black and the perpetrator White (or even a "White Hispanic). They don't seem to care about any other racial stories.
This all makes one wonder—what if every false narrative was forced to survive on its objective merits, as happened with the Trayvon story? There still is significant resistance to the truth behind the Trayvon/Zimmerman story, still a cohort pushing the Profiling/Murder narrative, but the false narrative has taken a hit, and I sense a growing resistance coming from people who now are better acquainted with the actual facts and evidence. At the end of it all, the question is, do we want to abandon the rule of law, and start willingly sacrificing the innocent to a social agenda driven by a false narrative? As inured as many may be with a particular social agenda, even a racial one, most are not willing to take that extra step. Among many false narratives relentlessly trolling the public consciousness, the Trayvon/Zimmerman story is a rare exception. The trial was a highly publicized, widely viewed spectacle, during which the underlying "facts" everyone thought they knew were put to the test, and failed to hold up. This rarely happens to a false narrative. We should all wish it happened more often.
