Being denied of information and humiliated during the hearing of his case on 10th January at the State Information Commission office, Sanskrit scholar and RTI activist Dr Subedar Surinder Sharma turned to the State Human Rights Commission to get justice
Jammu-based soldier, Subedar Surinder Sharma was filled with grief when his sister, in her thirties, died under mysterious circumstances on 29 January 2011. Agitated over the fact that the police recorded the case as 'suicide' and not 'murder' despite alleged proof in the forensic laboratory's autopsy report, Sharma invoked the RTI (Right to Information) Act. He asked for inspection of documents of all records pertaining to autopsy as well as "chain of custody" of autopsy samples from the Government Medical College and Hospital in Jammu. He had also requested permission of assistance of his friend Deepak Sharma to be present during inspection as he is not well versed with English—this soldier though is a Sanskrit scholar having done his PhD in it.
The public information officer (PIO) declined information stating he does not have the copy of the autopsy report. Sharma then filed the first appeal but was informed by the First Appellate Authority that they indeed have the copy of the autopsy report but cannot allow inspection as records of other patients would also be revealed. Surinder Sharma, appealed to the FAA that he was only interested in his sister's report but was denied information.
Hence, he appealed to the State Information Commissioner where his case was pending until he was asked to be present for hearing on 4 January 2013 at the Chief State Information Commission's office where the case was to be heard.
His friend, Deepak Sharma also filed a separate RTI application on 29 April 2011 asking for the "crime scene observation report" of Surinder Sharma's sister, from the PIO of the Office of Forensic Laboratory, Jammu. On 26 May 2011, he was denied information under the pretext of Section 8. He filed an appeal with the FAA on 12 July 2011 but was denied information. Deepak Sharma then filed a complaint with the State Information Commission but by a decision on 4 January 2012, the Information Commissioner dismissed the petition stating that the applicant has already received the information from the PIO. States Deepak Sharma, "the Information Commissioner without giving me a notice or hearing my side, gave such an order." Aggrieved at this "lie, as I had never received the information", he asked for a review application. Very strangely, the SIC sent back the application to the FAA who once again turned down his request. Finally, Surinder Sharma under media glare, wrote a RTI application with his own blood on 12 October 2012 and submitted it to the PIO. It was then that the SIC took it seriously and the PIO was compelled to give a copy of report.
However, Deepak Sharma's hearing at the Chief State Information Commissioner's office on 10 January last week turned ugly. Both the RTI applicants are crying foul over the humiliation meted to them by GR Sufi, Chief State Information Commissioner of Jammu and Kashmir. States Surinder Sharma, "when we sat on the chairs, Mr Sufi asked us to vacate our chairs, saying it is not meant for people like us. He also humiliated us and threatened us that no appeal of ours would be entertained and that any case can be filed against us. He also took objection to my presence to assist Mr Surendra. He said that I am not an advocate. When I brought to his notice that the RTI Act allows assistance from any citizen, not necessarily a lawyer, he was very rude. Shocked at the arrogance we have made a petition to the State Human Rights Commission, to conduct a probe against Mr Sufi for his behavior."
Chandigarh-based Surendera M. Bhanot, coordinator RTIFED who is campaigning against the arrogance of various information commissioners writes in Humjanenge blog, "Such behaviour of the Information Commissioners has brought the institution of Information Commissions to disrepute. This has opened a new front for the information seeker to approach the Central/State Human Right Commissions. Exactly so, one information seeker has really invoked this right."
Lately, the information commissioners have come under ire for killing the RTI Act through their insipid orders. Now, it is a bit more serious as one of their fraternity members is alleged of misconduct towards RTI applicants.
Copy of the letter addressed to the Jammu and Kashmir State Human Rights Commission
Surinder Sharma & Deepak Sharma, R/o Mandlik Bhawan, 412-C, Jeevan Nagar, Jammu (Complainants)
Sh. GR Sufi, State Chief Information Commissioner, Jammu and Kashmir State Information
Commission, Wazarat Road, Jammu (Respondent)
Sub: Complaint of human rights violation and serious breach of constitutional right of the complainants by Sh. GR Sufi, State Chief Information Commissioner, Jammu and Kashmir State Information Commission, Jammu.
Hon'ble Sir,
It is submitted with deep grief and pain that the complainants were humiliated, harassed, threatened to be implicated in false cases and the fundamental rights of Right to Equality before law, Right to Information, Right to a fair and transparent trial in the court of law, Right to life and liberty, Right to live with human dignity, Right to freedom of speech and expression and Right to enter in any public office were violated by Sh. GR Sufi, State Chief Information Commissioner, Jammu and Kashmir State Information Commission, Jammu.
The complainants would also like to bring in to the kind notice of Hon'ble Chief Minister Sahib that the complainant no. 2 had already submitted a written request to the J&K State Information Commission, dated 30 March 2012, receipt no. 2912, requesting for the videography of his cases pending for trial at J&K State Information Commission, for a fair and transparent trial. But unfortunately, for the reasons best known to the State Information Commission, the Commission remained insensitive and even did not bother to reply the complainant of his request.
The complainants would also like to bring this in to the kind notice of the Hon'ble State Human Rights Commission that the respondent had even himself violated the provisions of the state RTI Act and put the life of the appellants/information seekers on risk. The section 6(2) of the state RTI Act prohibits any personal question, motive and the purpose and use for seeking information, but the respondent had in utter violation of this provision of the Act in his decision no. 45 of SIC/J/Comp., dated 31/10/2011directed the information seeker to apprise him of the purpose of seeking and use of sought information.
The details of the present complaint case and circumstances are as follows:
That a case titled "Surinder Sharma Vs GMC" was listed for hearing in the open court of Hon'ble Chief State Information Commissioner, Sh. GRSufi on 10/01/2013 at 11am. The applicant along with his duly authorized representative, Sh. Deepak Sharma (Complainant no. 2) approached to the State Information commission office on 10/01/13 at 10.45am.
That both the complainants after showing their presence to the private secretary of the State Chief Information Commissioner , entered in to the open court of State Chief Information Commissioner , Sh. GR Sufi , where the case was listed for hearing.
That both the complainants humbly wished the Hon'ble State Chief Information Commissioner and took their seats. The officials from the GMC, Jammu were already seating on the chairs.
That the State Chief Information Commissioner , Sh.GR Sufi suddenly in a very rude manner ordered the complainants to vacate the chairs immediately , stating the reasons that the complainants have no right and capacity to sit on chairs before him . He also remarked that the complainants and some others like the people of Jammu region do not deserve to sit on chairs before him and only senior officials/ bureaucrats like the officials from GMC, deserve to sit on the chairs before him.
That both the complainants as ordered by the State Chief Information Commissioner immediately vacated their chairs and in standing position requested to start the trial. The complainant no. 1 (Sh. Surinder Sharma ) requested to the Hon'ble State Chief Information Commissioner , that the complainant no. 2 ( Sh. Deepak Sharma) would present the case on his behalf. (This request of the complainant No. 1 was under the provisions laid down in the J&K RTI Act, 2009).
That the State Chief Information Commissioner, while violating the provisions laid down in the J&K RTI Act, 2009, rejected the request of the complainant no. 1 to present complainant no. 2 as his representative, citing the reasons that only an advocate with valid licence can only represent an applicant in the open courts of the Information Commission and since the complainant no. 2 (Sh.Deepak Sharma) is not an advocate , hence the complainant no. 2 could not be allowed to represent the case of complainant no. 1( Sh. Surinder Sharma).
That the complainant no. 2 (Sh.Deepak Sharma) humbly requested to the State Chief Information Commissioner that the J&K RTI Act, 2009 , permits even a non-advocate to represent an applicant and no where in the Act it is mentioned that a non-advocate cannot represent an applicant in the case.
That the State Chief Information Commissioner in a fit of anger ordered the complainants not to speak in front of him, ordered to get out of his court immediately and also warned the complainants not to file any appeal/complaint in the J&K State Information Commission in future . The Hon'ble State Chief Information Commissioner even threatened to implicate the complainants in to false cases and also threatened to teach them a suitable lesson if the complainants approach to any forum against this conduct of the State Chief Information Commissioner and also ordered the complainants not to enter in to the premises of open courts of the Commission and even in the office of J&K state Information Commission.
That the complainants were even not allowed to mark their attendance on the attendance register. That the State Chief Information Commissioner also stated that in future the complainants/appeal under the J&K RTI Act, 2009, from the complainants would not be accepted/entertained by the State Chief Information Commissioner.
Prayer: Through this prayer, the complainants most humbly request to the Hon'ble State Human Rights Commission to conduct an independent probe in this matter, direct the State Chief Information Commissioner to honor the fundamental rights of the complainants ,direct the State Chief Information Commissioner to restrain from filling any false case against the complainants, direct the State Chief Information Commissioner to acknowledge and accept the appeals/complaints filed by the complainants under the provisions of the J&K RTI Act, 2009, direct the J&K State Information Commission to conduct the videography of all the cases of the complainants for a fair and transparent trail, direct State Chief Information Commissioner, Sh.GR Sufi not to restrict the entry of the complainants in open courts of the commission, not to restrain the entry of the complainants in the premises of J&K State Information Commission both in Jammu and Srinagar office, the State Chief Information Commissioner may also be directed not to infringe the rights of the complaints to seek information under J&K RTI Act from state public authorities, the State Chief Information Commissioner may also be directed not to violate Section 6(2) of the state RTI Act and not to put the lives of innocent information seekers on the radar of the corrupt elements by asking about the use of sought information, or to award any other suitable relief to the complainants as this commission may deemed appropriate.

Notwithstanding expectations of interest rate cut by the RBI in its quarterly monetary policy on 29th January on back of declining inflation, RBI governor D Subbarao said, "Inflation has come down, (it is) still high"
Lucknow: Ahead of its third quarterly policy, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has said that inflation was still high and there was no room for fiscal or monetary stimulus to boost growth in slowing economy, reports PTI.
"When growth is slowing down you can stimulate the economy either by monetary easing or by fiscal stimulus, but both monetary and fiscal side have no room for stimulus. So that is the big concern," RBI governor D Subbarao said while addressing Indian Institute of Management (IIM) students on Tuesday evening in the capital of north Indian state Uttar Pradesh.
Notwithstanding expectations of interest rate cut by the RBI in its quarterly monetary policy on 29th January on back of declining inflation, Subbarao said, "Inflation has come down, (it is) still high".
Although inflation, based on movement in wholesale prices, touched the three-year low of 7.18% in December, retail inflation continued to remain in double digit at 10.56%. It only indicates that easing Wholesale Price Index (WPI) was not providing any relief to the consumers from spiralling prices.
The WPI inflation at 7.18% was also much above the central bank's comfort level of 4%-5%. The inflation has not declined to the expected levels despite tight monetary stance pursued by the RBI to check price rise.
With industrial output contracting by 0.1% in November, the industry has stepped up its demand for interest rate cut by the RBI in its forthcoming policy.
The economic growth, which slipped to nine-year low of 6.5% in 2011-12, is expected to decline further to 5.7%-5.9% in the current fiscal.
Kingfisher CEO met DGCA but again failed to provide any details on its funding or about any commitment by the airline's parent company, UB Group, on financing the carrier's revival plan
New Delhi: Vijay Mallya's grounded Kingfisher Airlines on Wednesday made another attempt to convince Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) on its revival plans, but failed to provide any details on its funding which the aviation regulator wanted, reports PTI.
Kingfisher CEO Sanjay Agarwal met DGCA Arun Mishra for 45 minutes to apprise him of the prevailing scenario facing the airline, but sources said he gave no information about any commitment by the airline's parent company, UB Group, on financing the revival plan.
The sources said Agarwal told the regulator that the airline would be ready to resume operations from the Summer Schedule, which begins in April.
The Kingfisher chief said the airline has not received no-objection certificates from any of the airport operators, including the Airports Authority of India (AAI), though he claimed that some of the oil companies and aircraft leasing companies have given it a go-ahead.
Today's meeting comes days ahead of a crucial meeting of a consortium of bankers that have lent over Rs7,500 crore to the now defunct airline.
The consortium has been refusing to lend any more money to the airline till the promoters bring in more funds. The airline suspended operations on 11th October last year and its operating licence lapsed on 31st December.
In the recent past, civil aviation ministry officials had made it clear that they were not satisfied by Kingfisher's plans to invest Rs650 crore as it might not guarantee efficient and reliable services.
"The revival plan, which was submitted by the airline, had lot of issues regarding lenders and staff payment which we felt may not lead to reliable services," a senior officer had said, adding it had no provision for payment to airport operators.
Salaries and allowances of the staff have also been pending for over eight months now, while the airline owes money to airport operators, oil companies and other vendors.

Target: Arkansas state legislature
Goal: Repeal extreme and unconstitutional abortion law that bans abortions after 12 weeks of pregnancy
In a move that marks the most extreme abortion law in the country and opposes Governor Mike Bebee's veto, legislators in Arkansas have banned abortions that occur past 12 weeks. This new law is in direct violation of Roe v. Wade, which entitles every woman to a safe and legal abortion so long as the fetus cannot viably survive outside of the womb. The youngest premature birth ever recorded was at 21 weeks, nine weeks after the ridiculous limitation Arkansas has set. This new law is blatantly unconstitutional and a massive step back in the continued fight for women's rights.
A woman 12 weeks into her pregnancy is not only still in her first trimester, but has often just discovered that she is pregnant. To put things in context, this new ban is two months earlier than any other state in the nation. The 12 week limitation has the greatest impact on the poor and the young. Those who do not have the immediate economic means to pay for an abortion can obviously not get one. Teenagers will often hold off on telling their parents for reasons that span from fear of repercussions to attempts to hide rape or sexual abuse. In fact, nearly one-third of all abortions after 12 weeks are teen abortions.
In addition to these difficulties, there are many reasons that a woman will not have an abortion right away. Not only do woman face an intense moral decision, but often a pregnancy can go missed for a substantial amount of time. According to the National Abortion Federation, these reasons include undiagnosed pregnancies, medical complications, tragic events, and a shortage of physicians. Even outside of the new 12 week law, Arkansas does not make abortion easy for women to begin with. Those considering an abortionmust attend a mandatory lecture that is followed by a waiting period, there are insurance coverage restrictions, state-funded clinics are not allowed to help a patient find an abortion provider, and there are parental notification laws.
All women deserve the right to choose what they do and do not do with their bodies. Arkansas' new law is ridiculous and unrealistic—it strips the basic right of self-governance from women and preys specifically on poor and young women, girls even. Governor Mike Bebee was adamant when he vetoed the law, stating that it "blatantly contradicts the United States Constitution, as interpreted by the Supreme Court." Stand up for women's rights today—demand that Arkansas lawmakers repeal this grossly extreme and unconstitutional law immediately.
Dear Arkansas State Legislature,
The abortion ban you recently passed, which denies women the right to an abortion past 12 weeks gestation, is extreme and unconstitutional. This law is in direct violation of Roe v. Wade, which states that abortions are legal as long as the fetus cannot viably survive outside of the womb and cites fetal viability at 23 weeks. How can you decide that an abortion cannot occur past 12 weeks when the youngest premature baby ever born was at 21 weeks, nine weeks after the limit of the ban you have instated?
This law denies all women their right to choose and specifically preys upon women who cannot afford abortions, women who are afraid of revealing that they are pregnant, women who have difficulty scheduling an abortion, and women for whom early pregnancy detection failed. In other words, you are preying upon single mothers, women with full time jobs, women who are socioeconomically disadvantaged, teens, and victims of rape and sexual abuse.
This abortion ban is abhorrent and a massive step back in the continued fight for women's rights. I demand that you repeal it immediately.

Rudy did the obligatory first jerk-off scene at Corbin Fisher, then he fucked a chick over at American College Sex, Corbin Fisher's other site, then Rudy fucked a guy back on Corbin Fisher. Cameron followed the same route: first he jerked off for Corbin Fisher, then he fucked a chick, and now he's been paired up with Rudy to take this 20-year-old's cherry.
Cameron has never been with a guy before, and Rudy's never bottomed; Rudy only just had his first guy-on-guy sexual experience a few weeks ago. And I have to admit, it's pretty hot watching a couple of guys fumbling through their first sexual experience together. And as the guys start kissing, their nervousness fades away. Then Rudy goes down on Cameron and starts stiffening up his dick with his mouth.
After getting some head from Cameron, Rudy gets on all fours and his buddy starts inching his dick into Rudy's tight hole. Cameron is gentle and gives Rudy's ass time to adjust. But it's not long before he's pounding Rudy's ass, even slapping it as he pumps. for his first time, Rudy is loving the feeling of Cameron's dick sliding into his butt.
After some side-by-side fucking, Rudy moves onto his back and Cameron thrusts into his ass. Rudy can't hold back any more and he splatters a big load of cum all over his abs. Cameron pulls out, kneels beside Rudy, and dumps his load into Rudy's mouth. So not only has Rudy gotten his first anal sex under his belt, but he's tasted his first load of cum!

Executive Summary of Capra's Management Seminars
One of the foremost signs of present-day society is the presence of massively complex systems that increasingly permeate almost every aspect of our lives. The amazement we feel in contemplating the wonders of industrial and informational technologies is tinged by a sense of uneasiness, if not outright discomfort. Though these complex systems continue to be hailed for their increasing sophistication, there is a growing recognition that they have brought with them a business and organizational environment that is almost unrecognizable from the perspective of traditional management theory and practice.
Moreover, it is becoming increasingly apparent that our complex industrial systems, both organizational and technological, are the main driving force of global environmental destruction, and thus the main threat to the long-term survival of humanity. To build a sustainable society for our children and future generations — the great challenge of our time — we need to fundamentally redesign many of our technologies and social institutions so as to bridge the wide gap between human design and the ecologically sustainable systems of nature. This means that organizations need to undergo fundamental changes, both in order to adapt to the new business environment and to become ecologically sustainable.
Although we hear about many successful attempts to transform organizations, the overall track record is very poor. In recent surveys, CEOs reported again and again that their organizational change efforts did not yield the promised results. Instead of managing new organizations, they ended up managing the unwanted side effects of their efforts. At first glance, this situation seems paradoxical. When observe our natural environment, we see continuous change, adaptation, and creativity; yet our business organizations seem to be incapable of dealing with change.
In his seminars, Fritjof Capra presents an approach to organizational change that is inspired by recent scientific breakthroughs, which have led to a new understanding of living systems. He suggests that, to transform organizations, we first need to understand the natural change processes that are embedded in all living systems. Once we have that understanding, we can design processes of organizational change accordingly and create human organizations that mirror life's adaptability, diversity, and creativity.
The understanding of human organizations in terms of complex living systems is likely to lead to new insights into the nature of complexity, and thus to help us deal with the complexities of today's business environment. Moreover, it will help us design business organizations that are ecologically sustainable, since the principles of organization of ecosystems, which are the basis of sustainability, are identical to the principles of organization of all living systems.
There is an additional reason why the systemic understanding of life is of paramount importance in the management of today's business organizations. Over the last few decades we have seen the emergence of a new economy that is shaped decisively by information and communication technologies. In this new economy, the processing of information and creation of knowledge are the main sources of productivity. Thus "knowledge management," "intellectual capital," and "organizational learning" have become important new concepts in management theory. Applying the systems view of life to organizational learning enables us to clarify the conditions under which learning and knowledge creation take place and to derive important guidelines for the management of today's knowledge-oriented organizations.

5.0 stars 5 totalReview Joseph Bernardo
Posted by anonymous
I hired Joe back in 2011 for a Personal Injury case that involved myself and my wife. From the beginning Joe was very straight forward and honest with us throughout the whole process. His understanding of personal injury law is remarkable and he his very personable and accessible to his clients if you ever have questions or concerns. His staff also makes sure to keep in communication with you throughout the process. Joe got us a decent settlement offer for our case and he even waved part of his fee so we could get more for our recovery. I highly recommend anyone with a Personal Injury case to seek out Bernardo Injury Law Firm as their representative. You'll get a quality lawyer with excellent experience and respect.

Hello, I was involved in a very bad accident, no fault of my own and the vehicle I was struck in was a company vehicle. Those factors and being injured made it a very stressful situation. I contacted his office first because he was highly recommended from from my sister. All of my questions were answered on my first call from Joseph himself and his office manager, Sharon Orzech. I was put at ease right away, he was able to make an appointment for me very fast and his office manager Mrs. Orzech was available to me 24/7. The whole process was made to be very professional and moved along at a very fast pace from what other people told me it would take and others that had went through this very process. I was pleased of the outcome and if I ever need a lawyer again I will not hesitate to call them again. Without a doubt I recommend the office of Joseph Bernardo to anyone.

I was in a terrible car accident in 2006 and Joe responded to my situation very quickly. Joe was very professional and cared about my injuries. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case. I really liked the fact that when you hire Bernardo Injury Law you get Joe Bernardo instead of another inexperienced lawyer.

I was recently involved in a car accident in January of 2013. I had injuries to my neck and back because of the accident. I did not know where to start and how to approach getting help for my injuries and property damage in result of the accident. I retained Mr. Bernardo as my personal injury attorney and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Mr. Bernardo and his staff did a great job in settling my case in a timely manner and at a maximum case value. I was compensated fairly with no further out of pocket expenses to pay. If you need a personal injury attorney, Bernardo Injury Law is hands down, who I recommend.

I Fell and broke my ankle in a parkng lot sinkhole on goverment property. I called Mr. Bernardo's office the following week. His office staff was very polite and informative. I later met and spoke to Mr. Bernardo about my accident. He was honest and not at all misleading in what he could and could not do for me. Mr. Bernado and staff spent considerable time on my case for which he received little or no compensation. His efforts did help me with all medical costs. I am very grateful to Mr.Burnardo and his staff. My review rating for this law firm may seen high, however it is very hard to find the degree of caring, integrity and professionalism that I received from this law firm. I have been in a situation where I was just another name to a big law firm. That was not a good experience!

Rural mail will suffer with more mail plant closures
January 6, 2015
Dear NNA Member,
Today, on the second business day of the new year, the mail has officially been slowed down. USPS added an additional day to its expected service standards for much of its mail. This year, it will close 82 more mail processing plants. Most NNA members know mail service to smaller communities has already been affected. What we can expect—unless we fight back—is more of the same.
I hope you'll consider the enclosed editorial by NNA President John Edgecombe. Also here is a list of the mail plants scheduled for closure so you can see how your readers will be affected. Please consider writing your own editorial, or use John's.
And then join us in Washington on March 18-19 as we continue our campaign in Congress to save universal mail service. It is not too late to speak out.
Thank you for your support.
Please contact me if there are questions.
Tonda Rush, NNA CEO and General Counsel, firstname.lastname@example.com

A friend of mine from South Dakota noted that the U.S. Postal Service delivered a lump of coal to many small towns last Christmas when it proceeded to eliminate overnight mail in most of the nation in 2015. That was a good description. USPS will slow delivery officially by one day for First-Class and Periodicals mail. Many members of Congress have asked it to hold off. But USPS is plowing ahead.
It is time for lawmakers to consider how rural and small town mail is suffering.
The USPS plans to close more than 80 mail processing plants in 2015. Smaller plants will be consolidated into urban plants. It has already closed nearly 150 plants in the past three years and says service was not affected.
That is hard to believe, at least in small towns.
Longer road trips for most mail, traffic delays in urban areas to get sorted mail back to the local post offices, post office closings and shorter business hours have made claims of good service hard to trust. There is also the upheaval while workers lose their jobs or have to be retrained. Now, according to the nation's mail agency, cost-cutting means admitting service will be even slower, even in urban areas, by at least a day.
What the public announcements do not say is that when America's mail sneezes, rural mail gets pneumonia. Cutting a service day is a big sneeze even in the metro areas. But rural and small town mail had already contracted the illness. Many subscribers who receive newspapers by mail have been disappointed by late deliveries. The scattered reports we may hear of delayed credit card payments and business invoices would be much louder if consumers felt there was any point in complaining.
Unfortunately for many—seniors without Internet capabilities, lower income residents, rural folks without good Internet service and people who just don't trust the Internet—the mail is a necessity.
The USPS inspector general last October chastised the agency for not fully analyzing the impact from its proposed plant closings and the Postal Service said it would do so—but only after its slower service standards go into effect. In other words, it will consider whether it can reach its goals after it has lowered them.
Even before the change, it has been hard to find out how well rural mail is delivered.
The Postal Service provides a public report to its regulator, the Postal Regulatory Commission, on how well it performs against its service standards. See Periodic Reports at www.prc.gov. USPS gathers information on speed of delivery from several sources, including its own digital scanning. The greatest volume of mail is in urban areas, so national statistics may look ok. But the law doesn't require USPS to report on how the rural mail is doing. That is something Congress should consider.

LONDON (Reuters) - Manufacturing buyout firm Melrose (MYN.L) need only raise its takeover offer slightly to gain access to the books of reluctant target Charter International CHTR.L, bankers, shareholders and analysts said on Tuesday.
Some of Charter's shareholders -- such as Aviva Investors, the asset management arm of insurer Aviva (AV.L) -- have already spoken out publicly that the British engineer should allow Melrose to look at its books.
"My expectation would be that this deal will ultimately go through," a top 10 Charter investor told Reuters.
"They have managed to get a little more out of them (Melrose) and I think they will engage before long," he said of Charter, which is seeing shareholders this week.
Melrose buys, fixes and sells ailing manufacturing companies and first bid for Charter in late June, when a profit warning driven by the rising cost of raw materials at the company's ESAB welding division sent Charter's shares tumbling 24 percent.
Melrose shares have risen 14 percent year-to-date in contrast, an incentive for investors since any deal would be structured as a mixture of cash and stock.
Charter rejected a second Melrose offer in July of 840 pence a share or 1.4 billion pounds, equal to 0.74 times the company's estimated 2011 sales, according to Thomson Reuters Starmine data.
Bankers said that hedge funds controlling up to 20 per cent of Charter's stock were also supportive of Melrose, increasing the likelihood that the two sides would find common ground and engage in the next few weeks.
"Until the middle of last week, the (Charter) board weren't happy to open their books up until (a bid price per share of) about 10 pounds or more," said Panmure Gordon analyst Oliver Wynne-James.
"Following meetings (with shareholders) and some shareholder pressure, I think they will be looking at opening their books at anything above 840 pence per share," Wynne-James said, referring to Melrose's latest bid price.
Bankers familiar with the sector, but not advising on the deal, said that Melrose might be prepared to raise its offer to about 870 pence, or 0.76 times estimated 2011 sales, if it was promised due diligence.
Wynne-James said that Melrose "would probably let Charter go" if it had to pay more than 900 pence, or 0.79 times estimated sales for this year.
After rejecting the second offer, Charter's new Chief Executive Gareth Rhys Williams unveiled new growth targets and the company reported an increase in first half profits.
Shareholders said there was still some concern that Charter might resist a higher Melrose offer, which would likely lead to the industrial buyout specialist walking away.
Melrose has said it will not go hostile.
"Lots of people seem to be of a similar mindset to me. The situation we have seen with Laird - that is a company that is overplaying its hand and it has not exactly benefited the shareholders has it?" the top 10 Charter investor added.
Electrical products company Cooper Industries CBE.N withdrew its $875 million offer for British rival Laird (LRD.L) this week because the companies could not agree on price. Laird's shares fell 17 percent immediately after Cooper's announcement of its withdrawal.
Dublin-based Cooper raised its offer to 200 pence from 185 pence a share on July 27 and said that it might have further flexibility on price if the two parties entered talks.
Laird wrote to Cooper two days later insisting it would only enter talks at 220 pence a share, after which Cooper withdrew its bid.
"Laird and Cooper were playing chicken just like Charter and Melrose," said a banker that advises British companies.
"Still the crucial factor is that shareholders have publicly called for Charter to open its books. That is powerful and it did not happen with Laird," the banker said.

As companies extend business-intelligence software to the masses, they should think before they deploy.
Scott Leibs, CFO Magazine
November 1, 2006
A few issues with competency centers are often paved over. First, what exactly is competency with BI? Is it learning about the data models and how to use tools that extract and display data from relational and multidimensional databases? Or, should it be, learning how to apply these tools to get work done that is relevant, closing the loop and allowing people in the organization some mobility by not getting stuck in a job as the "go-to guy?" The other problem with competency centers, historically, has been that they tend to be staffed by the most expendable resources - typically junior employees who have developed some facility with one or two of the tools, but lack perspective on the work that people actually do, or need to do. I'd suggest that there is no competency center for Google or Ebay. When you provide technology that is on-target, rational people find a way to apply it. Unfortunately, much of BI today does not fall into that category.

Another user reported this issue last night. You actually don't have to worry about it though because we don't yet sync back to AD.
If you really don't want Spiceworks updating your AD server though, you might want to consider providing read-only (browse) credentials for your AD server.

Sorry for the late updates, but high school is busy, busy, busy!
Hope you like this. (:
DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything except the plot.
I sat down on my tanning chair, sunglasses on my nose, covering my brown eyes. I closed my eyes and sighed to myself. This is the life. Senior year was just too much for me to handle. I didn't get accepted into Julliard, but my brother did. And I'm truly happy for him but it is a bummer that I didn't get accepted as well. Instead I'll be going to U of A, where my daddy had decided was not a bad university since he is on the Board of Directors. My scholarship applied for the arts, and I love that. Yet I want to be the one that was in Julliard, making friends, going on Broadway, and being famous.
I ran my fingers through my now brown hair, smoothing out the knots. I thought back to when my hair was still blonde and bright. But that was when I was still known as the Ice Queen around East High School. The blonde matched the coldness people had assumed I had inside. Ever since graduation, I immediately decided to change my whole self for college. I wanted to have real friends, not like my Sharpettes that don't do anything except giggle and do what I say.
A ball bouncing on hard concrete caught my attention. The sound echoed in my ear and my heart thumped. It's as if that ball almost killed my heart. I titled my head to the side and caught sight of Troy Bolton, shirtless and sweaty, shooting basketballs and missing the basket. My eyes widened at the sight of his appearance. I don't blame everyone for drooling over him. His six pack abs glistened from the sweat falling from his chest. His hair was messed up in an adorable way that made me want to run my fingers through them.
Then as if he knew, he looked over at me and smiled.
I felt my heart jump inside my chest.
I cleared my throat to myself and told myself not to react to that small gesture. I looked back at him and I shot him a small smile, biting my lip to keep it from growing any bigger. I subconsciously ran my hand through my hair once again, feeling my hands shake with anxiety. I could hear his sneakers sliding against the asphalt and they sound came closer and closer.
A shadow stood over me so I slowly slid my sunglasses down the bridge of my nose, revealing part of my brown eyes. I quickly met his eyes and I swear on my Chanel purse, I got hypnotized. Those blue eyes shone brighter than the sun itself. He walked where my feet lay, right where the sun was, and he blocked the sun. Right there, right at that moment, he looked like the most gorgeous man I had ever seen. His skin looked tanner than usual. No wonder girls fall over him all the time. All that basketball practice has paid off.
"Hey, Sharpay," he said softly, sitting on the chair by my legs.
I instinctively pulled my legs up and sat up, wrapping my arms around them. I suddenly felt conscious, especially since I was only clad in a bikini. He looked down at me and chuckled. He scooted onto the seat, sitting with crossed legs and just looked at me with a small smile.
"Hey, Troy," I replied, pulling my hair from behind my ears to cover my face.
He reached over and put it back behind my ear, causing him to scoot closer. He gave a small smile and said, "Don't do that."
I looked down and giggled. Nodding, I asked him what he was doing here… at my house… in my backyard… sitting with me.
Troy shrugged and signaled me to scoot over on the chair. So I did. Though there was barely any room for both of us to sit next to each other. Surprisingly, he sat next to me and laid down, pulling me next to him. My eyes widened when he pulled me to him and my head rested on his broad chest. I smiled to myself and decided to live in the moment. I hugged him tightly, sighing inwardly.
I don't think Troy has any idea how long I've imagined us actually doing this. As boyfriend and girlfriend. But this is reality. Troy and I are basically acquaintances now. Way back when, he and I were best friends. But then high school started for us. We parted our separate ways; I started drama club and he started basketball. Cuddling with him now feels like when were still best friends.
"Troy, you still haven't answered my question," I said softly, looking up at him. He had his eyes closed and a grin on his face. His hand stroked my back continuously in a smoothing motion.
"I saw you were out here and I was playing basketball," he reasoned, "And since we live right across the street from each other, I figured why not hang out with Sharpay."
"Really… since when do you wanna hang out with me?" I raised an eyebrow at him.
Troy laughed and turned his body towards me, his face meeting mine. I gulped as I saw how close he was. His blue eyes locked with mine. His hand stroked my hair back once more before leaning in.
"I miss my best friend, that's all," he whispered into my ear, causing shivers to run throughout my body.
I snuggled closer to him, hugging his body closer to me. He wrapped his arms tightly around my body and started talking into my hair. All I could hear were muffled words, but I could feel him smiling so I figured he talked about good stuff. I smiled to myself and closed my eyes. The only thing that would make this more perfect was if he and I were actually together. That would make the beginning of summer the best time of my life.
"Why did you dye your hair brown, Pay?" he asked me in an innocent voice.
"I dyed it because I wanted to feel like a new person," I said into his chest. "New hair, new Sharpay."
"I loved your blonde hair though," he said. "It was very… Sharpay."
I giggled. "I'm still Sharpay. I'm just… the better version."
Troy smiled at me with his shiny teeth. He kissed my cheek and said, "I like her too."
Without any thought, I leaned up and kissed him on the lips. As soon as I realized I did and that he didn't respond, I pulled away, embarrassed. I could feel my cheeks turning red as I turned away from him. I could hear his heavy breathing and I could tell he was probably really shocked that Sharpay Evans would do that.
Once again, he surprised me by pulling my face up to his and kissing me. My eyes fluttered closed and I sighed into his mouth. Nothing felt better than just kissing him under the hot summer sun. As I pulled away, there was nothing more that I wanted than to kiss him again. So I did. He chuckled and kissed me back, before pulling away a few seconds later. His forehead leaned on mine, his eyes connecting with mine immediately.
"You're mine…" he whispered. "If that's alright with you."
I kissed him as a response and he laughed. "So that's a yes, am I right?"
And again, I kissed him softly.

text: I'd like to give our site users' a little unique user titles based on their gender. I'm wondering if anyone could give some advice about how to implement it. I guess some template edits shall take care of it ... Say, I'd like to do it based on the default XF Trophy User Titles. The defaults are: - New Member - Member - Active Member - Well-Known Member For simplicity, just assume I'd like to name the female member as "F", and the male member as "M". So, if the user is a new female member, her title would then be: "New F" ; If the user is a new male member, his title would then be: "New M"; By same logic, female member -> "F" ; female active member -> "Active F"; female well-known member -> "Well-Known F"; male member -> "M"; male active member -> "Active M"; male well-known member -> "Well-Known M"; How to implement something like this? Thanks so much in advance!

We're just one week into the season and we've already lost a serious contender. After running the numbers from the Heisman Predictor, Oklahoma QB Sam Bradford is nowhere among the Top 10 and he's not likely to climb back in the picture. Expected to miss two to four weeks, the sprained right shoulder suffered against BYU has effectively ended his campaign for a second trophy.
To see who got off to the best start, which Heisman contenders have the most at stake in Week 2 and which freshman (!) might enter the picture, you must be an ESPN Insider.

Smartly informal place with exceptional wines, real ales, first rate food and a good mix of customers
Good Pub Guide Recommended
The good ship Woods sails merrily on with high praise for all aspects of the place from our enthusiastic readers. There are satisfied diners to the right and happy lunchtime drinkers nursing their pints to the left; as the pub is on the edge of Exmoor, there are plenty of good sporting prints on salmon pink walls, antlers and other hunting trophies, stuffed birds and a couple of salmon rods. By the bar counter are bare boards, daily papers, tables partly separated by stable-style timbering and masonry dividers, and (on the right) a carpeted area with a woodburning stove in a big fireplace; maybe unobjectionable background music. The marvellous drinks choice includes Otter Ale and St Austell Cornish Best and Proper Job tapped from the cask, farm cider, many sherries and some unusual spirits - but it's the stunning wine list that draws the most attention. Mr Groves reckons he could put 1,000 different wines up on the bar and will open any of them (with a value of up to £100) for just a glass. He is there every night and will happily chat to tables of restaurant customers about any wines they might be interested in. Big windows look on to the quiet town centre (there's also a couple of metal tables on the pavement) and a small suntrap back courtyard has a few picnic-sets.
Good Pub Guide Food
Excellent food using their own farm produce includes sandwiches, seared mackerel fillet with cucumber linguine, spring onion, chilli and lime, confit duck and foie gras terrine with red onion marmalade and pickled wild mushrooms, goats cheese, asparagus and wild garlic risotto with caramelised walnut salad, cod fillet with shrimps, herb salad and caper nut brown butter, lamb loin and slow-roast shoulder with artichoke purée, fondant potato and thyme sauce, rib-eye steak with slow-roast tomato, fries and bordelaise butter, and puddings such as glazed lemon tart with coconut sorbet and citrus confit and stem ginger pannacotta with poached rhubarb and apricot sorbet.

Mats Hummels speaks out on Man Utd interest
Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels has admitted he was 'honoured' to be the subject of transfer interest from Manchester United and has confirmed that he will not make a move this summer.
Hummels has been linked with a move to United for the last year, with the Premier League club making a move to sign the World Cup winning centre-back in early May.
Yet Hummels has finally gone public with comments to confirm he turned down the chance to join United and will remain at Dortmund.
"There have always been rumours about almost every one of our players, but I decided not to make the move this year," Hummels said to reporters in Singapore.
"Of course when the big clubs are interested, and Manchester United is one of the biggest clubs in the world, it's an honour, but I decided I wanted to stay here.
"I've been at Dortmund for a very long time, I haven't set a limit. It's hard to say what future brings, but I'm still here after seven years."
United have been aware for some time that Hummels had decided to stay at Dortmund and have moved their ambitions to alternative targets in recent weeks as they look to bolster the heart of their defence.

The IUCN –International Union for Conservation of Nature—is an intergovernmental organization comprised of over 1,200 members, including more than 200 government and more than 900 non-government organizations. The Global Gender Office (GGO) contributes towards IUCN's vision and mission by providing innovative approaches, technical support, policy development and capacity building to a wide range of partners, ensuring gender equality is central to sustainable global environmental solutions.
Continuing our work building websites for nonprofits, Social Ink worked alongside key stakeholders at the Global Gender Office to overhaul their old, static site into a dynamic, CMS-powered resource center for initiatives, outreach and resources.
When we built the GGO website, we had to figure out a way for staff to include various stakeholders from sites scattered across the globe, standardizing metadata for various content types and integrating it with a new Knowledge Center – an advanced interface for resources and research, and a range of other content types.
Additionally, we built an interactive and filterable map, pulling from the live website database of resources, allowing staff to post a resource, a filter/tag, and have it populate in various sections of the site from archives, to "related content", to maps.
Other key features of the project include immersive, immersive, high resolution photography, information architecture consulting to organize and optimize a wealth of work and knowledge resources, automated translation via Google Translate, and email newsletter integration.

Location: Physiology and Pathology of Tree Fruits Research2011 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416)
We have elected to initiate this integrated research and outreach activity to tackle fire blight disease and provide solutions, both short- and long-term, to this important agricultural problem using a multidisciplinary approach. Our short-term goal is to develop environmentally sound and effective methods of management and control for this disease, by capitalizing on 1) state of the art knowledge of the biology of the pathogen, host, antagonists, and inhibitors; and 2) advances in high-technology, in particular nanotechnology, for delivery of control agents. Our long-term goal is to incorporate genetic resistance into the host, apple, so that apple trees can fight off the pathogen on their own. This will capitalize on 1) expansive genomics resources available for the apple genome; and 2) genomics-based approaches for identifying and characterizing these genes. These isolated gene(s) can then be incorporated in the future into apple using established genetic engineering technologies. Throughout this project, we will translate project outcomes to beneficiaries of this research, namely growers and consumers, through effective and innovative outreach and educational programs, and we will address the economic benefits and available marketing tools to support adoption of the end products of this integrated genomics and management systems project. Objectives: 1. Evaluate and assess virulence inhibitors against Erwinia amylovora. 2. Evaluate and enhance efficacy of microbial biocontrol agents. 3. Controlled and sustained delivery of virulence inhibitors and biocontrol agents mediated by microparticles/nanoparticles. 4. Identify and clone fire blight resistance genes. 5. Develop and deliver outreach programs for comprehensive management systems for fire blight. 6. Develop and assess economic and marketing opportunities for biocontrol of fire blight disease as well as develop fire blight resistant apple varieties.
1b. Approach (from AD-416)
Since many chemical compounds have been found to be effective against a broad-range of Gram-negative mammalian pathogens, we hypothesize that compounds identified for mammalian systems will also be effective against plant enterobacteria, which share similar type III secretion systems as the main virulence mechanism to cause disease. Experiments will be designed to use known virulence inhibitors effective against mammalian pathogens to test their effectiveness against E. amylovora, both in vitro and in vivo, and to determine the potential molecular mechanisms involved in suppressing the virulence of the pathogen. The mechanisms of the commercially available biocontrol agent, P. agglomerans strain E325, and selected bacterial and yeast antagonists highly effective against E. amylovora in screening tests on blossoms, will be studied using a synthetic medium based partially on the chemistry of flower stigma exudates and using detached crab apple flowers in controlled environments. The effectiveness of strain E325 will be enhanced by altering production and formulation procedures to increase production of an antibiotic highly specific to E. amylovora and to increase the tolerance of E325 to desiccation on flower surfaces. Efficacy of biological control will also be increased by combining E325 with other antagonists with complementary mechanisms and ecological niches. Highly effective antagonist mixtures, virulence inhibitors, or combinations of these agents will be field tested at Wenatchee (WA), Urbana (IL), and East Lansing (MI). Biodegradable and biocompatible materials will be developed for the sustained delivery of virulence inhibitors and biocontrol agents in orchard environments. This will be mediated by microparticles or nanoparticles with optimized size and architecture to facilitate controlled release of the control agents over time. Based on previous studies by various groups identifying QTL for fire blight resistance, the QTL identified from both the crab apple 'Everest' and M. floribunda 821 and located on LG12 of the apple genome will be targeted for identifying gene(s) for resistance to fire blight. Efforts will be made to identify a BAC contig on the apple physical map covering the QTL for fire blight resistance and fine mapping of the QTL region. Following sequencing of the BAC contig, candidate genes will be identified. The function of the genes will be analyzed by transforming plants, through overexpression and knockouts, and transformed plants will be evaluated for fire blight resistance in a greenhouse. New technologies for fire blight management will be delivered to the tree fruit industry through the development of a project website and educational programs covering biocontrol, nanotechnology, and genomics.
3. Progress Report
This report relates to objective 1 of the associated in-house project, which seeks to improve fire blight management through advancements in the production and formulation of microbial biocontrol agents used to suppress the disease organism on flowers of apple and pear trees. This project was funded by a grant from USDA-NIFA, Specialty Crop Research Initiative. The Project Director (PD) is located at the University of Illinois (UI), Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences, Urbana. The project component on biological control is being led by ARS at Wenatchee, WA. Additional details of the research can be found in the report for the in-house associated project, 5350-22000-015-00D, Biological Integrated Management of Fire Bight of Pome Fruits. The PD and Co-Principal Investigators (Co-PIs) on the project interacted through teleconferences and email during the past year. The Co-PI at Wenatchee met with the PD and Co-PIs at UI in December of 2011 to discuss research results obtained so far and plan new strategies for going forward. In addition to work described in the in-house project, personnel at Wenatchee have supported the efforts of a plant pathologist at UI, Dept. of Crop Sciences, to evaluate small molecule virulence inhibitors as novel antibacterial agents, some of which are natural products, to essentially disable the fire blight organism and prevent it from causing disease. So far, information and materials, specifically immature pear fruit for laboratory assays, has been provided. The group at Wenatchee is also cooperating with two engineers at UI, Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology, to develop microcapsules suitable for delivering biocontrol agents for fire blight. The objective is to protect biocontrol agents during application and initial establishment on the surfaces of flowers from environmental factors and from other materials applied in orchards, including blossom thinning agents. The Wenatchee group has provided a substantial amount of information and conceptual input related to the microecology of floral surfaces and the establishment of an appropriate microcapsule size and release time. One milestone reached was the encapsulation and sustained viability of a biocontrol agent on floral tissues in the laboratory. The research supports Component 4 (Biological and Cultural Strategies for Sustainable disease Management) of the NP 303 Action Plan by: (a) Developing an ecologically based strategy for the control of fire blight of apple and pear crops; (b) enhancing the efficacy of biological control agents; and (d) integrating multiple disease management tools. Progress is monitored through conference calls and oral progress reports at annual meetings of project team at University of Illinois.

Hello Creeps,
It's me again, Blacknumber1. Father of Noir Pasta, the Creepypasta Freestyle Challenge and now founder of the Old Farts Club here on the wikia.
Yesterday, we got a nice response and have some new members added to the Creepypasta.wikia Old Farts Club (created yesterday) as per my blog post here The 30+ club.
New question. There is something I've pondered since I've been a part of this Creepypasta universe...
Are there any celebrity fans and users on Creepypasta.wikia.? There is bound to be a few on here. It would be cool to know if celebs you would never expect to be pasta fans actually were. My guess is that there has to be at least one user. If there is, I DON'T expect them to be outed. I understand the need to remaing anonymous. It would be cool to know if there were a few here though. Or at the very least, celeb fans of creepypasta could be outed.
So, if any one of you knows something... if you can confirm yes (You don't have to out them), that would be pretty boss!
*Again, you don't have to name celeb users. You can name confirmed celeb fans though.

| This article is a stub. You can help the Ranma Wiki by expanding it, or perhaps you could contribute to discussion on the topic.
Sakura (さくら Sakura?) is the ringmaster of the circus La Cirque Grande. She appears in the episode "Here Comes Ranma's Mom!", misunderstood to be Ranma's mother.
Sakura is described to have short brown hair in a bun and is noted to look very similar to Nodoka Saotome.
In the beginning, a young very attractive woman appears whose face is unseen. She calls Ranma "dear" which gives Happosai the opportunity to recall the story of love between Genma and the woman, Sakura. The story begins when Soun and Genma were training with Happosai. During one of their very important "duties" with them, Genma came across a beautiful, young woman named Sakura and after a few months of seeing each other she gave birth to a beautiful baby. Before he can give more details about the baby, Akane interrupts him, leading everyone to believe that Sakura is Ranma's mother. But it turns out that Sakura is not Ranma's mother and the story was just a fake one, crafted by Happosai to get Genma bamboo leaves.
- While she looks similar to Nodoka, Sakura appeared nearly two years prior to Nodoka's debut.

text: SourceOAKLAND, CALIFORNIA, October 13, 2012 (Contra Costa Times): Five years after a few pioneering families began trickling into East Oakland and Alameda, a burgeoning Bhutanese exile community is happy to have left refugee camps in Nepal but still struggling to adjust to Bay Area life, according to the first report to survey their well-being. "The community is still trying to survive," said Jiwan Subba, president of the Alameda-based Bhutanese Community in California, a year-old organization helping link the refugees with jobs, health services and fellowship.Fellowship, at least, was in good supply Saturday afternoon during the community's first public celebration of the Dasain festival, a 15-day Nepali Hindu celebration of the triumph of good over evil. Still, Subba's group used the occasion to reveal some of the economic and social problems felt by the community of several hundred refugees, nearly all of whom have arrived in the past five years.In a survey of 91 Bhutanese immigrants in Oakland and Alameda, about 68 percent had incomes below the federal poverty line, more than half reported stress-related ailments, 42 percent are unemployed and many say they struggle with the English language, which makes it harder for them to find good jobs.It is a religiously diverse community, according to the survey: 47 percent Hindu, 34 percent Buddhist and 15 percent Protestant Christian. The youngest members were born in United Nations refugee camps in eastern Nepal. The oldest fled their homeland, the Buddhist kingdom of Bhutan, to escape ethnic tensions and persecution of Bhutanese people of Nepali descent in the early 1990s, and lived in the camps for nearly two decades. Bhutan refused to take them back.
