2005-05-25 at 12:25:00 pm #9464Ink cartridge refurbishers compete for
David Wood makes a good living by asking people for their empties — empty
printer cartridges, that is.
To make his business pay, Wood does a lot of asking.
Every three months, he visits about 345 schools and as many as 20 churches
across his home state of North Carolina. He also phones about 15 schools a day,
as well as several Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops.
These schools, churches and other non-profit groups comprise Wood's
grass-roots army of collectors, helping him gather a total of about 9,400 empty
inkjet and laser cartridges a month.
He pays an average of $2.50 for each inkjet cartridge. Then, his Raleigh,
N.C., business, called Kartridges for Kidz, resells the empties for an average
$5.50 apiece to remanufacturers who will recondition them, refill them and offer
them for sale at 30 percent to 50 percent less than new brand-name
"I'm basically asking for other people's trash, which is the beautiful thing
about this," says Wood, whose business brings in monthly revenue of about
Wood is part of a growing cadre of cartridge brokers that helps non-profit
groups raise funds, encourages recycling and supplies a network of mostly small
remanufacturers that offer consumers a lower-cost option for running their
It is a win-win proposition in many respects, except for the big printer
makers such as Hewlett-Packard Co. and Lexmark International Inc.
Brokers such as Wood and the remanufacturers they supply are pinching the
printer giants, which rely heavily on profits from repeat sales of new
cartridges. The printer companies also are beginning to feel a squeeze from
office-supply outlets that sell do-it-yourself refill kits, and chains such as
Cartridge World and Island Ink-Jet, which are setting up across the nation as
cartridge-refilling stations for consumers.
In the past five years, the share of the global ink-jet-cartridge market held
by remanufactured cartridges has risen from 14 percent to 17 percent, says
imaging-industry tracker Lyra Research. Lyra expects that to rise to 24 percent
by 2008, even though Consumer Reports and other consumer watchdogs consider
remanufactured cartridges inferior in quality.
Lexmark, H-P and others have responded by suing some remanufacturers for
patent infringement or other alleged offenses. They also encourage consumers to
return used cartridges for recycling by packaging post-paid return envelopes
with new cartridges.
Lexmark offers a return program that gives customers a discount on new toner
cartridges if they agree to return the empty cartridges only to Lexmark.
"Among many of our largest accounts, our return rate is in excess of 80
percent," the company said in a statement.
John Solomon, a vice president in H-P's imaging division, says the company is
trying to help the environment, not thwart remanufacturers. "We welcome
competition," he says. Solomon calls the cartridge collectors "a cottage
industry" and says that while H-P's own cartridges are more expensive, they are
Remanufactured cartridges, which typically are identified as recycled or
compatible replacements for name brands, can be bought online and are sold by
office-supply chains.
Demand for empty cartridges — sometimes called "cores" — is skyrocketing. A
used black-ink cartridge for an inkjet printer can fetch an average of $5 from a
remanufacturer, up from $3 a year ago, according to Lyra. Research firm
InfoTrends/CAP Ventures expects Americans to go through 86.5 million laser-toner
cartridges and 604 million inkjet cartridges this year.
Cartridge brokers are mobilizing their collectors to hunt for these cores.
Only "virgin cores," or cartridges that have been used just once, are considered
worthy of remanufacturing. Because good-quality cores aren't easy to find,
brokers are often willing to pay handsomely — in some cases more than $20 for a
used laser-printer cartridge.
Schools and other non-profit organizations welcome the extra money.
"Since September, we've brought in $1,100″ from pooling used printer
cartridges, says Pat Sherrard, a part-time teacher at Sts. Simon and Jude School
in Louisville.
The funds go toward new equipment for the school's computer lab, says
Sherrard, who collects about 50 used printer cartridges a month.
As competition for used cartridges intensifies, brokers are more aggressively
recruiting schools and other institutions.
FundingFactory, owned by recycler Environmental Reclamation Services Inc. of
Erie, Pa., has put together a sophisticated system of points that participants
can earn for empty cartridges. The points can be redeemed for cash or goods from
retail partners. Other brokers are showing up at educational conferences to
recruit new collectors or are advertising in Parent Teacher Association
Judy Quinn, a technology coordinator at the 1,860-student Massaponax High
School in Spotsylvania County, Va., says cartridge brokers fax her recruitment
letters every week.

Woolworths posts record profit
Woolworths led the pack on a busy reporting day with a record $2 billion profit and the announcement of a share buy-back.
TranscriptBRIGID GLANVILLE, PRESENTER: Retail giant Woolworths led the pack on a busy reporting day with a record $2 billion profit.
Earnings are up and the company also announced it would be spending $700 million on a share buyback.
And for all the talk of a rejuvenated Coles, Woolies sales came in 40 per cent higher.
Earlier I spoke to Woolworths CEO Michael Luscombe.
Michael Luscombe, thanks for joining Lateline Business.
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: Pleasure, Brigid.
BRIGID GLANVILLE: Well the market certainly liked the result. Shares were up 7 per cent just after opening. What was the most successful area?
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: I think it was just a great team effort on behalf of the 190,000 people that work for our great company.
We had a decade of double digit profit growth and we had a bumper year in 2009 where all the moons aligned. So to come out with a double digit profit increase in the 11th year I think was just a tribute to the team, particularly considering it was a year of two halves.
When we got to Christmas, a lot of things changed. We went from inflation to deflation in just about everything. We ran out of the effect of the stimulus payments and so you needed to really be really good retailers to continue to operate profitably.
BRIGID GLANVILLE: Do you think it was the end of the stimulus payments which hit the consumer electronics division. Second half profit was down.
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: Oh look it was a combination of things. We clearly had a change program - it's still underway - within the business.
The businesses that we have changed did, both in terms of sales and EBIT, a terrific job. The first half we had a great profit result for the group. The second half we saw some pretty tough pricing competition. As a result of that we've seen at least one business be taken over.
We had a decision to make. Either we continue with our pricing position - that is not to let a sale walk out of our door and be very competitive on price - or to sit back and watch the sales go elsewhere, maybe be profitable, but having a big problem with old dated inventory at the end of the year.
We chose to get on the front foot and continue to be aggressive and we had a reasonable sales result. We certainly didn't make money in the second half, but we're now back in profit in this new year.
BRIGID GLANVILLE: So Dick Smith, you're expecting that to perform better?
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: I've got no doubt they'll perform better.
BRIGID GLANVILLE: You've talked about today what customers want. I know you've done lots of survey and feedback forms. What do they want?
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: Well they actually want great value at the moment.
They're clearly not interested in, if you talk about non food product, buying things at full price.
But I think there's a bigger trend happening in food and that is that people really are interested now in what's good for them. So whether it's organic or free range or gluten free or just natural, we're seeing big uplifts in that area.
And, of course, the launch of our Macro brand in the supermarkets that covers many of those areas has been an outstanding success. And there is no doubt that that trend, I think, is one that is going to be with us for some time to come.
BRIGID GLANVILLE: That trend, this new store format, is that your way that you're going to take on a revitalised Coles?
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: What is very important in business is that you have your own strategy and you go your own way and you certainly don't have your strategy that is totally just a response to someone else.
What we have seen in the past year in food and liquor is that we've actually grown market share faster than anybody else - substantially faster than anybody else - and faster than the marketplace.
What is also very evident is that we've been in some 24 months in development of this, as we did with the 2010 before we initially launched it. So this is not some new decision we've made in response to what someone else is doing.
We believe that this is a true response from what we've been hearing from customers about what they want from a Woolies supermarket going forward.
We've also had our guys and girls travelling the world and having a look at what's new and exciting in retailers across all the continents and try to bring them back and translate them into an Australian experience.
BRIGID GLANVILLE: The new area for Woolworths is hardware. When will customers see these new 150 stores opening?
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: Well the first of them will open in the second half of next calendar year, right on schedule. And thereafter that we will continue to roll them out for the foreseeable future.
BRIGID GLANVILLE: How much capital and time will need to go in to establish all these 150 stores?
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: Well it very much will depend on what happens in terms of the mix between us having to buy land and then develop it ourselves and then finally sell it on.
BRIGID GLANVILLE: It could be a very big cost.
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: Well it could, but luckily our experience to date has been we've got a lot of believers in the models. So we're finding a lot of owners of the land actually want to develop and build the product to our specifications and remain landlords.
So our initial view of the percentage that we would have to buy the land and do ourselves has been recalibrated substantially.
So we haven't given any guidance on the capital but each half we'll actually let people know what we've spent in the previous half on this.
I think one of the important points here is that some people are really positioning this business as a start-up. It's not a start-up. It's actually picking up a very successful model from overseas - along with its owner - to partner with a local strong player to deliver a model that is proven to work, very much the way that Aldi came to Australia - proven model, came to Australia. CostCo has come to Australia. We've seen the Gap. No doubt they'll be successful as well.
This is not a start-up, this is actually a replanting of an existing model.
BRIGID GLANVILLE: Michael Luscombe, thanks for joining Lateline Business.
MICHAEL LUSCOMBE: It's been a pleasure, Brigid.

He told Palmer this was his first DBN of the week, which letters he jovially explained stood for Distressed British National.Murder, eh? he said. Who'd you kill?I haven't killed anyone Palmer said. Don't be a bloody fool.Let me explain how American law works, Holden said. If you actually hired someone to kill someone else, then you're as guilty as the person pulling the trigger. Murder for hire is first-degree murder, and the penalty is death by lethal injection. They use Valium. A massive dose that stops the heart. Conspiracy to commit murder is another A-felony. If you did either or both of these things . . .I didn't.I was about to say you'd be in cheap nfl jerseys for sale very deep trouble. If you did these things. Which you say you didn't.That's right.Being British is no excuse, by the way. It doesn't entitle you to immunity.I don't need immunity. I haven't done anything.Well, good then. D'you know anyone named John Bridges?No.They seem to think you know him.I don't.How about a man named Charles Colworthy?Palmer's eyes opened wide.Supposed to work with you at Martins and Grenville. Good publishers, eh? D'you know him?Palmer was thinking it over.The way they have it, Holden said, Colworthy knows someone named Delroy Lewis, who put you in touch with this Bridges chap to whom you and Cynthia Keating together paid five thousand dollars to kill her father. But that isn't so, is it?Well, I know Colworthy, yes. But . . .Ah, you do?Yes. We work together in the post room. But I certainly didn't hire . . .That's good. I'll just tell them they've made a mistake.Where'd they get those names, anyway?From the woman.What woman?Cynthia Keating, Holden said, and hooked his thumbs into his vest pockets. She's ratted you out.Palmer looked at him.But if you had nothing to do with this . . .Just a minute. What do you mean? Just because she gave them the name of someone I work with . . .The other man as well. Delroy Lewis. The one leading directly to Bridges. Who killed her father.Well, the only one / know is Charlie. He's the one I work with. I may have mentioned his name to her. In casual conversation. If so, she must have contacted him on her own.Ah, Holden said, and nodded. To ask if he might know anyone who'd help kill her father, is that it?Well, I ... I'm sure I don't know what she asked him. ,Called London to arrange his murder, is that how you see it?I don't see it any way at all. I'm merely trying to explain . . .Yes, that you, personally, had nothing to do with this.Nothing whatever.So Mrs Keating is lying to them. Has lied to them, in fact. She's accepted a deal, you see. They've dropped the conspiracy charge and lowered the murder charge to second degree. Twenty to life, with a recommendation for parole. Holden paused. They might even offer you the same deal. Then again, perhaps not.Palmer looked at him.Because of the related murder.Palmer kept looking at him.They seem to think you did that one personally. The old lady. Martha Coleridge. I have no idea where she fits into the scheme of things, but apparently she was threatening a plagiarism suit. Do you know the woman I mean?Yes, Palmer said.That would constitute a second count of first-degree murder, Holden said, and stroked his mustache. So I doubt if they'd offer you the same deal, after all.I'm not looking for a deal.Why should you be? You haven't done anything.That's right.I'll just tell them to forget it.Of course. They have no proof.Well, they have the woman's confession. Which implicates you, of course. And our chaps may get something more from Bridges, if ever they find him. They're looking for him now, apparently.

(The Hosting News) — NYI, a New York City-based, mission-critical data services provider, today announced that it has teamed with Certichron, the leader in third-party evidentiary time services, to provide secure, provable time-distribution and validation solutions for finance and securities, government, international trade and law enforcement applications.
With this partnership, NYI's data centers at 100 William (New York, NY), 999 Frontier (Bridgewater, NJ) and 800 South Hope (Los Angeles, CA) where Certichron's technology will be deployed, all become strategic additions to Certichron's growing network as well as a source of nationally and internationally compliant time-services–an area expected that has become a billion-dollar market for the legal profession alone over the past several years.
"NYI's reputation for being technologically forward-thinking is no exaggeration," said Todd Glassey, CTO, Certichron. "They have made a major investment in their data center infrastructure to assure that its feature set and amenities remain the cutting-edge standard for the foreseeable future. We are inspired by their vision and proud to have them as a partner as we establish federally-certified third-party time-data services as both a regulatory standard and audit requirement solution."
"Certichron's shrink-wrapping of time and trust services as a third-party resource is important in computing. What Certichron is doing will soon become essential, not just for hedge fund managers and securities dealers, but for all regulated systems which need something better than 'because I said so' as a trust model," said Phillip Koblence, VP Operations, NYI. "In the meantime, being able to deliver such third-party, provable time-data not only protects our customers, it holds NYI up to the highest possible standard."
Glassey added, "Businesses are increasingly dependent on the complex integration of applications and systems, whether it be consolidating financial reports within the corporation, wiring money or moving data to the Cloud. Ultimately, this data from disparate sources needs to be consolidated into valid transaction records.
"If the time stamps are not consistent, the integrity of the data is undermined. With growing regulation (PCI DSS, OATS, SOX, GLBA, etc.) and judicial intervention (Lorraine v. Markel and In re Vinhnee), the management of time has evolved from an issue of accuracy to an issue of verification and proof."
Most recently, Certichron has executed a NORAMET Time Service Agreement with the Canadian government. This agreement means that the Canadian Time Server Certichron has deployed at NYI's main data center in Lower Manhattan can be used as a provable, third-party time source for official government activities because it is the first real-world instance of NORAMET (UTC), better known as Coordinated Universal Time, outside a laboratory.
As Certichron's technology is more broadly deployed, NYI's data centers add to their already long list of capabilities, which include support for low-latency connectivity for trading platforms, backup processes, and other latency-sensitive applications. For complete information on NYI's data centers, including facility specifications, virtual tours and connectivity partners, visit: www.nyi.net/facilities.
About Certichron
Certichron acts as a Trusted Digital Intermediary, with a complete time-evidence and time-content certification practice that is nationally and internationally recognized as a legally provable source of time. To provide uniform time everywhere Certichron delivers its provable time service through a nationwide network anchored against its NIST-calibrated time-service systems. Based in San Jose, CA, with a network extending across the United States, the company hosts ~30% of the NIST public timeservers on the Internet and is the single largest provider of NIST-calibrated time outside of the Federal government. The company's time-services meet US FFIEC, SEC, and other regulatory standards, in addition to those put forth by NORAMET and other International Treaties, and the compliance requirements of PCI DSS, OATS, SOX, and GLBA. For more information, visit www.certichron.com or contact the sales office directly at 800.511.2301.
About NYI
Established in 1996, NYI is headquartered in the heart of the Wall Street area and owns and maintains its own data centers, including 999 Frontier, a flagship 40,000 square foot facility in Bridgewater, New Jersey. The company's core services include colocation, dedicated servers, web and email hosting, and managed services, as well as turnkey disaster recovery and business continuity solutions from its Bridgewater location. With its high-bandwidth connectivity partners offering immediate, sub-millisecond access to more than 20 markets, NYI specializes in mission-critical data services for the financial services industry, in addition to solutions for customers from a broad range of industries, including media, law, fashion, architecture, life sciences and real estate.

JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - Some Jackson leaders say the city is receiving conflicting orders from two different judges.
Hinds County Circuit Judge Swan Yerger is ordering the city to turn it's wastewater contract over to another company. But a chancery court judge is ordering the city to stay with it's current contractor, Jackson Water System.
Now, the fate of Jackson's wastewater contract is in the hands of the state supreme court.
"It's challenging because it's not just a question of flipping a switch from one company to the next. It's very detailed, and there are scores of engineers and water treatment experts that need to be in place to make sure this is done appropriately," said City Councilman Jeff Weill.
City Attorney Peter Teeuwissen has filed an emergency appeal to the state supreme court to sort out the issue.

India, sent in to bat on a lifeless wicket, seized the opportunity to pile up 326 without loss by the close of the first day's play at Test cricket's newest venue, the Sher-e-Bangla National stadium here.
Jaffer, who bagged a pair in the drawn first Test in Chittagong, justified the team management's decision to retain him in the side by slamming 17 boundaries in his fourth Test century.
The 29-year-old Mumbai opener put on 175 for the first wicket with Dinesh Karthick, who made 82 before retiring hurt with cramp in his left arm in the last over before tea.
Jaffer also fell victim to the energy-sapping heat and humidity and retired hurt with leg cramps midway through the final session of play.
Cramp seemed the only way batsmen would depart on the slow, barren wicket, but there was no respite for the hosts as Indian captain Rahul Dravid helped himself to 88 not out before stumps were drawn.
Sachin Tendulkar was the other batsman at the crease, on nine. Both Jaffer and Karthick can return to bat later in the innings, if required.
Bangladesh captain Habibul Bashar may have been swayed by overcast conditions when he asked India to bat, but the wicket offered no assistance to the bowlers.
Bangladesh, who toiled in vain in the oppressive conditions, did not help their own cause by dropping both openers.
Karthick was on 11 when Saqibul Hasan spilled a chance at second slip off left-arm seamer Syed Rasel.
Jaffer was put down in the first over after lunch at 42 when he drove spinner Mohammad Rafique uppishly but the bowler failed to latch on to a waist-high return catch.
Karthick had moved to 74 when Australian umpire Daryl Harper turned down a loud shout for a catch by wicket-keeper Khaled Mashud as the batsman slashed at a wide ball from Mohammad Sharif.
Repeated television replays confirmed the ball had come off the edge of the bat.
Karthick and Jaffer, who plodded to 67-0 in 26 overs before lunch, hit out in the afternoon session to add a further 108 runs in 26.5 overs by tea.
Karthick, who turns 22 on June 1, followed his 56 in the first innings of the opening Test with his fourth half-century.
Bangladesh selected three seamers in Mashrafe Mortaza, Sharif and Rasel and went in with just one specialist spinner in Rafique.
Another seamer, Shahadat Hossain, who played in the Chittagong Test, was sidelined with high fever.
India awarded a Test cap to 18-year-old Delhi seamer Ishant Sharma, who has played in just one domestic season, in which he claimed 29 wickets in six games.
Sharma, who joined the touring squad after Munaf Patel was injured, took the place of Vikram Rajvir Singh, who played in the first Test.

The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife's toll-free number is having sporadic outages. We are working to find a solution. Until we are able to fix it, you may contact the Information Center at 502-564-3400. We apologize for any inconvenience this may be creating.
Very little pre-settlement information exists for bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) populations in Kentucky. Most historic records are from the far western part of the state, with some observations further east along the Ohio River floodplain. Widespread declines in the mid-1900's resulted in the bald eagle vanishing as a breeding bird in Kentucky during the 1960's.
Kentucky's population of bald eagles met criteria set by the Southeast Bald Eagle Recovery Team for removal of the species from the federal list of threatened and endangered species. Hence, the species was officially delisted in August of 2007. However, bald eagles still remain protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. To ensure the species continues to succeed, National Bald Eagle Management Guidelines and a Post-delisting Monitoring Plan have been developed by the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and are available via the internet at http://www.fws.gov/midwest/eagle.
A view of a bald eagle nest from the helicopter during an annual nesting survey.Photo by: Ray Stainfield
data are available via the internet at http://ocid.nacse.org/nbii/eagles/. During the Midwinter Eagle Survey, 150-400 eagles are counted each year (Table 2). However, the state's nesting population is much smaller and most likely non-migratory, since adults are often seen on site throughout the year. KDFWR conducts aerial (helicopter) surveys of eagle nests in March or April to determine the status of breeding territories. Nest success is later determined using nest observations made by KDFWR staff, other agency personnel, and volunteers. Monitoring is carried out very carefully to avoid disturbance to nesting eagles.
In Kentucky, bald eagles usually lay eggs during January-March, but will begin nest building and repair as early as October. Young usually fledge (leave the nest) April-July.
During the nesting season, the following information is gathered, where possible:
These criteria are used regionally and nationally to measure productivity trends and are reported annually by each state to the USFWS.
In 2013, 123 occupied bald eagle territories were documented in 54 counties of Kentucky! The bald eagle population has grown in Kentucky with rapid pace and each year new nests are located (Table 1).
Table 1. Number of known eagle nesting territories in Kentucky since re-establishment
Figure 1 - Counties with known bald eagle nesting activity (gray). Last updated 8/29/13.
Tracking Kentucky's eagle population takes a tremendous amount of effort and would not be possible without the cooperation of several federal and state agencies, universities, private organizations, volunteers, and landowners. Their continued support is most appreciated.
Where can I find more information on bald eagles?
Information on life history (diet, lifespan, etc.) can be found at the USFWS eagle website: http://www.fws.gov/midwest/eagle/conservation/baea_nhstry_snstvty.html
How common is it to see a bald eagle in Kentucky?
Sightings of migrating and wintering eagles in Kentucky are becoming increasingly widespread. Bald eagles can be seen just about anywhere in Kentucky during the migration and winter season (September-March). Nonetheless, seeing a bald eagle is exciting every time!
Where are the best places to go to see a bald eagle in Kentucky?
The best time to go eagle-watching in Kentucky is the winter, when eagles gather in large numbers at areas with open water to fish. You're likely to spot an eagle on a boat trip or hiking trip to any large reservoir or river in December-March. Look for them perched in trees on the lake or river edge, or watch for them soaring above the water. The Land Between the Lakes Area is a winter hot spot for eagles. Kentucky State Parks, in cooperation with KDFWR and the US Army Corps of Engineers hold Eagle Watch events at several state parks in western KY each January and February. These trips are a great way to view lots of eagles. More information on eagle watch weekends can be found at the Kentucky State Parks website at: http://parks.ky.gov/!userfiles/parks-calendar/kenlake/eagle%20watch%20registration2013.pdf
I think I saw a bald eagle. Where can I find more information on identification?
See Bald Eagle Identification below
More information on bald eagle identification can be found at the following links:
I saw a bald eagle! Who should I report this information to?
Sightings of migrating and wintering eagles in Kentucky are becoming more common and widespread. Bald eagles can be seen just about anywhere in Kentucky during the migration and winter season (September-March). Carrion provides a good winter food source for eagles, away from open water. Sightings of wintering and migrating eagles do not need to be reported to KDFWR, unless nesting is suspected.
KDFWR tracks the location and productivity of all bald eagle nests in Kentucky. New nests are found every year. If you think you have discovered a new nest, please call our information number (1-800-858-1549) to report it. If a pair of adult bald eagles is seen in a local area for an extended period of time during the nesting season, there may be a nest nearby. Please let us know if you suspect bald eagle nesting activity in your area.
Do golden eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) occur in Kentucky?
Though uncommon in comparison to the bald eagle, golden eagles do migrate through and winter in Kentucky. There are no confirmed records of golden eagles nesting in Kentucky. The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources participates in the Golden Eagle Working Group and the Appalachian Golden Eagle Camera Trapping Project. More information can be found below through the Golden Eagle Working Group.

Rise in sectarianism with Iraqi vice president death sentence
Tariq al-Hashemi, the Sunni vice president of Iraq, has been sentenced to death by Iraq's Supreme Judicial Council.
This verdict, which has been made against a member of the Sunni sect of Islam by a predominantly Shi'ite-member government, has increased sectarian tensions in Iraq.
Al-Hashemi was issued a warrant by Shi'ite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki on Dec. 19, 2011 — a day after the US military exited Iraq — for his role in commanding death squads. Al-Hashemi fled to the northern Kurdish region of Iraq and eventually made his way out of the country to Qatar. He currently resides in a Turkish government residence in Istanbul.
The prosecutors initially charged al-Hashemi for being involved in 150 killings through the use of death squads. After a 9-month trial, al-Hashemi has been sentenced, in absentia, to death by hanging for two murders.
"He was involved directly in killing a female lawyer and a general with the Iraqi army," said Mr. Abdul Sattar al-Berqdar, the spokesperson of Iraq's Supreme Judicial Council, to CNN on Sunday.
According to Iraqi law, al-Hashemi and his son-in-law Ahmed Qahtan, who received the same sentence, can appeal the sentence because it is a sentence of death by hanging.
Mr. al-Hashemi is yet to make a statement in reaction to his sentence.
Acts of sectarian violence erupted in Iraq following the announcement of the sentence on Sunday, Sept. 9. Nearly 80 people were killed and another 270 were injured during the course of the day.
The high-profile sentence has raised sectarian tensions within the government. The Iraqi government contains strong internal divisions between the Sunni, Shi'ite and Kurdish peoples. All the groups want a stake in the post-Saddam Hussein regime.
Many sectarian Sunnis regard the verdict as a personal attack on the Sunni sect, since al-Hashemi was the highest ranked Sunni official in Iraq's mostly Shi'ite Muslim government.
"The whole thing from the beginning was a conspiracy against the Sunnis," said Sheikh Talal Hussain al-Mutar, the leader of a major Sunni tribe, to the New York Times. "The whole investigation and courts were fake and controlled by the government. This will make the situation in Iraq worse."
Shi'ite leaders denied such allegations. Ali al-Alak, a leader of the Shiite-dominated Dawa party, pointed to the fact that the panel of judges consisted of members from both the Sunni and Shi'ite political parties.
"The sentence is a victory for all Iraqis and a victory for justice," he said.
The sectarian tension carries serious security concerns. Though still not reaching 2006-2007 levels of violence, sectarian violence still hit a two-year high in Iraq in July 2012 with 325 deaths.
The outbreak of violence on Sunday has yet to be claimed by any one insurgency group. Many observers are pointing, however, to a rise in terrorist activity by al-Qaeda, the Sunni insurgency group.
Analysts and observers of Iraq's political and religious conditions are concerned that the sentence and its implications will spur on sectarianism.

9 July 1929, Edinburgh, Scotland, d. 25 June 1982, London, England. Welsh began his musical career in Scotland playing cornet, and later trumpet, in trad jazz bands. In the early 50s he moved to London and formed a band that quickly became one of the most proficient of its kind. With every chair filled by musicians of great skill and enthusiasm, the Welsh band was a major force in the British trad jazz movement. Eschewing the fancy dress eccentricities and pop music escapades of many of his rivals (although Tansy did reach the UK Top 50 in 1961), Welsh concentrated on creating exciting music that echoed the vitality of the best of Chicago-style dixieland jazz. Among Welshs sidemen over the years were Archie Semple, Fred Hunt, Roy Crimmins, Roy Williams, John Barnes, Lennie Hastings and Al Gay. During the 60s and early 70s Welsh toured the UK and Europe, building up a rapturous following, and also made occasional successful sorties to the USA. In...

Technology Is Everywhere, But Compassion, Evidently, Is In Short Supply.
By Jeff Smith
I-17 AND BELL ROAD WEST--Isn't modern life miraculous? Thanks to the inventions of the industrial/technological/microchip age, I can put the next hour or two it looks like I'll be spending gridlocked in Phoenix rush-hour traffic to good use.
A quick scan of my fellow sufferers reinforces my gratitude to the twin gods of science and capitalism. Two decades ago, if I were in similar straits, there would be nothing for any of us to do but sit and simmer similarly to the cars and trucks that got us into this metaphorical mess, this precise traffic jam in the first place. And like the radiators in these selfsame conveyances, sooner rather than later some of us would boil over and blow. Fists--perhaps even bullets--would fly and the poor soul whose unfortunate contretemps with whatever unknown immovable object up ahead had caused this tie-up might not end up the only fatality. His would be logged as a traffic statistic and history would record the others as homicides, but the teleology would be the same: death by mechanical invention.
Today, however, I see a well-groomed young man in a Range Rover and white shirt and tie with a cell-phone to his ear. He is gesturing with casual nods of the head and small waves of the hand, controlled, maybe practiced, for the edification of an audience of admirers in other motor vehicles. Cellular telephones are not yet universal in urban traffic, and there still are those who are impressed at the sight of a yuppie doing business at 80 miles an hour. Or at a standstill.
In the van ahead and two lanes to the right I can see the flicker of a television screen. Mom and the kids heading home from soccer practice are catching a film while the Phoenix Metro Fire Department works at clearing the wreck from the freeway up ahead.
We know, thanks to the primitive device of radio, and the just-slightly-less-archaic gimmick, the traffi-copter, that it's a roll-over accident clear the hell up at Cave Creek Road we have to thank for our current, 10-mile backup on I-17. I won't be making it to Jones' house in Flagstaff in time for supper, as advertised. Thanks to cellular technology, which has largely replaced the older, more colorful and more populist CB (for Citizens' Band) radio, I have moments ago learned that at least one person has died in this rollover. I heard this from a truck driver who opened the window of his Volvo for a whiff of that wonderful diesel smoke he couldn't get in his state-of-the-art, climate-controlled, sealed operator's module. You didn't know Volvo had gone into diesel big-rigs? Oh yes. Very aerodynamic and swoopy: Yuppiedom hits the truckstops of America.
Anyway, this trucker heard from another trucker up ahead that there was a body covered with a sheet being loaded onto a DPS helicopter. So it's going to be a while before all of these weary road warriors get wherever it is--or was--they imagined getting before the death of the unknown soldier. Good thing we've got car phones and TV sets and battery-powered video games and my little laptop computer here to occupy what otherwise would be wasted, frustrated, potentially murderous time while we wait for the city-state to clear the road-kill off the highway, so we can get on with our modern lives.
Which brings me to an indelicate question:
How much inconvenience is a human life worth?
I'm not talking in spiritualistic, political, bullshit platitudes about the sanctity of the single soul--the sort of flowery excuse that led us into World War I over the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand at Sarajevo. I'm talking finite, quantifiable numbers--in terms of man-hours lost, dollars of potential earnings frittered away, tons of particulate pollution puked into the Phoenix atmosphere--that we can run through our computers to come up with coolly calculated bottom line that will decide for us when to call out the converted snow-plows and simply squeegee the blood and guts and mangled metal to the side of the road let the rest of us get on with our diurnal commute.
Obviously this is not the sort of question we dare ask of anyone who has recently lost a relative or friend to a traffic accident within the last, oh, couple of weeks. It is by this same logic that we disallow mothers and fathers, husbands and wives, from sitting on juries to try accused murderers of loved ones. Emotions of this order constitute a hindrance to rational decision-making.
And clearly, if we are to continue to live, work and play together in increasingly congested societies of mechanized men and women, we're going to have to make some hard decisions as to when polite ritual overcomes practical sense. Hey, we know that was a human being, moments ago, that is now a mere half-octave-lower adjustment in the tone of the smart-ass traffic reporter ("I'm H. Geeee Listiak, talkin' on the Camel...") and that former person was some mother's son, but keeping 15,000 still-living commuters sitting on their dead-asses for a hour while their frozen yogurt melts and their favorite TV shows fall in the forest without them to witness and make it all noisy, isn't going to bring the Loved One back amongst the quick.
So howsabout let's just clear the table for now, and send a busboy back after dark with a carry-out container, to be delivered to the surviving family members. I know it's cold, but this is a hard-old world we've created for ourselves, and by consciously choosing to live in places like Phoenix, we have made our Faustian bargain. We can't have it both ways.
So what's it to be, Phoenix? America? Planet Earth? Do we want free-flowing traffic? Or are we going to keep on whining about death with dignity?

I play golf during the summer and ride my bike. I just bought a new house so that is taking a lot of my free time. I also like to play a few games on my PS3. During the fall I like to go deer and pheasant hunting.
But the one thing I enjoy over everything else is spending time with my 4yr old boy. That little fart can spell Spongebob Squarepants faster then anyone I know.

Fun.... fun..... that stuff you do that's not work, right?
Ok, well, I grew up a blues musician's son, so I'm A) addicted to music and B) a big blues fan. I make sure to go see as many live shows as I can, I went to three in one week a couple weeks ago (The Crystal Method, My Dad, The Black Keys).
Of course, I do manage to get some gaming in, afterall, I used to work as Filefront.com's news editor. I'm still playing GTA4, I just bought The Last Remnant from Steam and my buddies on IRC still drag me into games of Left 4 Dead on occasion.
I'm a "singer" -- in the sense that I have a Roland cube monitor and a Shure mic in my friends garage. I love singing, I just don't do it anywhere other than walking down the street or in my friends garage. I also have an acoustic Yamaha guitar that I'm struggling to learn how to play.
I'd say in general I like to kick back and listen to music with friends.

March Madness is thick with compelling storylines.
Raigyne Moncrief has her own.
Eight minutes. That's the extent of the LSU sophomore guard's NCAA tournament experience last year. Initially saddled by foul trouble, Moncrief blew out her left knee driving to the basket with 15 minutes, 45 seconds left in the Lady Tigers' 98-78 first-round win over Georgia Tech.
A year later she's back, arguably better than she was then, leading LSU into its NCAA tournament opener in her home state against South Florida.
It promises to be a hostile atmosphere in Tampa's Sun Dome. This is USF's first time to host an NCAA tournament game on campus, and a pep rally was planned before the game.
Moncrief will have a rooting section of family and friends who will make the cross-state, four-hour drive from Fort Lauderdale to watch her play.
It's easy, Moncrief said, for her to go too fast, to get too excited.
"I'm a hyper person," said Moncrief, who's second on the team with 11.7 points per game. "I've got to relax."
March isn't exactly the time for that, but Moncrief and the No. 11 seed Lady Tigers (17-13) will do their best to stay calm against No. 6 South Florida (26-7) in their Albany regional opener.
Tipoff is set for about 5:30 p.m. on ESPN2 — or about 30 minutes after Saturday's first game between No. 3 Louisville and No. 14 BYU.
The winners meet Monday night to advance to the Sweet 16. LSU is trying to make its third straight trip.
It's a tougher path this time.
LSU bid for and hosted NCAA first- and second-round games during coach Nikki Caldwell's first three seasons in Baton Rouge. This year, the NCAA decided to award first- and second-round sites to the top four seeds in each region.
The one outlier: South Florida. Louisville was in line to host, but because the Cardinals' home court is being used for the NCAA men's tournament, the games were shifted to Tampa.
Though making just its third NCAA appearance, USF earned its first national rankings this season (No. 25 in both polls) and with a win would tie the best record in school history.
USF is led by a nationally ranked scoring and rebounding tandem. Courtney Williams, a 5-foot-8 junior guard, is 24th in the nation, averaging 20.2 points per game. Alisia Jenkins, a 6-1 junior forward, is 11th at 11.6 rebounds per game.
"Obviously, (Williams) is their best player, but they've got a very sound supporting cast," Caldwell said. "They've got a balanced attack. At any time, players can step up and make plays.
"Defensively, their guard play gets after you. They support each other, so moving the basketball, player movement and extra pass — those are going to be keys for us. This time of year, you control the tempo with your board play. They do a phenomenal job of getting on the offensive glass."
Phenomenal was the word for LSU junior guard Danielle Ballard in last year's tournament.
With Moncrief going down in the Georgia Tech game and point guard Jeanne Kenney sidelined with a concussion in the next game against West Virginia, Ballard put the Lady Tigers on her shoulders and carried them to the Sweet 16.
Ballard averaged 23 points and 14 rebounds in LSU's three NCAA games, one of the best individual performances of the tournament.
If guard play spells success in March, LSU has a chance. Ballard, Moncrief and resurgent senior guard DaShawn Harden — she's 12-of-20 from 3-point range in her past three games — form a potent backcourt.
"They're a lot better than their record, and they're a lot better than an 11 seed — I guarantee you that," USF coach Jose Fernandez said.
Moncrief isn't the only Lady Tiger enjoying a homecoming of sorts Saturday.
Backup point guard Rina Hill is the first LSU student-athlete from Japan, but she prepped at IMG Academy in nearby Bradenton. Forward Anne Pedersen is from Denmark but spent her last year of high school in Gainesville. A fourth-year junior, Pedersen said she is undecided on whether she will return for a fifth year.

text: Our Verdict With the right system, these speakers are nothing less than spectacular For A great all-round performer with no sonic weaknesses Against You can get more luxurious-looking speakers for the money Reviewed on 2nd December 2005 Look ordinary, don't they? The finish and build are decent for the money, but compared to most rivals these boxes look plain. Take a look round the back, and things don't get any fancier: the biwire speaker terminal panel would be put to shame by that on many a sub-£200 budget model, let alone those at this price level. It's only doom and gloom until you start listening, though. Put the Studio 110s on something like Partington's Super Dreadnoughts, well out into the room with a touch of toe-in, and they'll shine brighter than just about anything else at this price. Your doubts will vanish faster than a tub of ice cream at a children's party as you realise that the ProAcs are all about the music and nothing else. Massively high standards Yes, you can easily get something with greater showroom appeal, or something that impresses your friends with fit and finish. However, when it comes to music, the Studio 110s set massively high standards. This is a great all-rounder that's fast, punchy and dynamic. They deliver a sound full of excitement and drive without breaking a sweat: Eminem, George Clinton or Gorillaz – the ProAcs don't mind, and will render it all with the utmost clarity while wringing out every last ounce of entertainment. The same applies to every other genre: classical, jazz, you name it – these speakers will get the best out of it. That's because the Studio 110s don't put a foot wrong. The tonal balance is a touch obvious at the top end, but remains balanced enough not to offend. Scale is impressive, as is authority – due to a surprisingly solid bass performance – and the ProAcs' timing is crisp enough to challenge the best at this level.

Homeowners threatened with losing their home through a bank foreclosure may benefit from the services of a real estate foreclosure attorney. When you buy a home, you usually get a bank loan and agree to repay it with monthly payments. If you fail to make the payments, the bank can start a foreclosure action, which enables them to sell your home to pay off the loan. Foreclosure laws are very detailed and strict about the process the bank must follow. A foreclosure attorney can explain your options to avoid a foreclosure sale, and help you to decide the best course of action for your situation.

text: Hot Barebacking has just uploaded a hot bareback threesome video. These three horny men are embroiled in a real piggy scene. Lance Powers is the blonde, hairy tattooed guy kneeling of the bed. Kirk Nadir and Jed Pisston are positioned ass to ass and Powers is working a double-headed dildo into both of their fuck holes. Once the dildo is in place, the two bottoms rock back and forth, pushing the dildo deeper into one another's fuck holes. The guys swap blowjobs, and Powers and Nadir get down on their knees and service Pisston at the same time. And Pisston's got a hot cock. With hard cocks busting at the seams, the three guys get into some raunchy fucking. Both Powers and Pisston take turns fucking Nadir's butt hole. But the highlight of the scene is when Powers get down on his knees and Nadir and Pisston piss all over his face and chest.

Wild Midnight(1987)
A novel by Maggie Davis
Rachel Brinton came from her comfortable home in Philadelphia to the savage and breathtaking beautiful land of sultry South Carolina to help with the rebuilding of lives of the poor Ashepoo River tenant farmers. Rachel, though, finds a danger she never dreamed imaginable. His name is Beau Tillson, known as "Beau Devil." This intoxicatingly dark and brooding man is the master of Belle Haven -- and of Rachel's heart. Beau continually fights against his emerging feelings for Rachel, for she is a threat to everything he holds dear. But as time passes and another threat emerges, Rachel is forced into the arms of this man who could be yet another danger, a man with a personality as dark as midnight.

The Sherrard, Ill., man who lost his wife and daughter to a mobile home fire March 27 in which five people died is out of the hospital and trying to rebuild his life, his mother says, adding the outpouring of community support has been "terrific."
The support includes a full day of events scheduled for Saturday at the Hy-Vee in Milan to benefit the three families affected by the fire.
Carol Viager of Preemption, Ill., said her son, Wayne Viager, was treated for burns at University Hospitals, Iowa City, and has been released. He and his sons are c living with her.
"He's trying to find a place to live or rebuild," she said. "He's trying to start from scratch."
His son, Dekota Viager, 14, also was treated for burns. His other son, Allen Viager, 10, was treated for smoke inhalation.
Wayne Viager lost his wife, Anna Viager, 38, and daughter, Breanna Viager, 8, in the fire that broke out at the Viagers' double-wide mobile home at 1385 300th St.
Three other children died, including Jessica Harker, 11, Holli Harker, 13, and Cassaundra Turner, 15, all of Sherrard, who were at the home for a sleepover.
The cause of the fire remains undetermined, according to the Mercer County Sheriff's Office and the Illinois State Fire Marshal's Office.
There was one smoke detector in the home, but it wasn't working at the time of the fire, Mercer County Sheriff's Department Detective William Glancey said in a statement.
The fundraising events are hosted by Milan Hy-Vee.
Hy-Vee director Kevin Mills said the events will begin at 11 a.m. at the store at 201 W. 10th Ave. and continue the rest of the day, including food, games, live entertainment and a silent auction. A golf outing at Pinnacle Country Club begins at 1 p.m.
All proceeds and donations collected that day will go to the three families affected by the fire.
"They lost everything, literally everything," Mills said.
Mills said the community had approached Hy-Vee about doing a fundraiser.
"We're community-minded," Mills said. "This happened in our back yard. We have the resources, the organization and a lot of great people who work at Hy-Vee."
Mills said the silent auction has gotten great support from area businesses, with more than 50 items collected. He said Hy-Vee is still accepting donations for the silent auction. Hy-Vee's also seeking volunteers for the day.
Carol Viager said the Sherrard area has been very supportive since the fire. "The community has been absolutely terrific," she said. "I want to thank everyone who's helped."
A benefit also was held Saturday at the Milan American Legion for the Harker family.

Flooded coast road and NWT Cley Saturday 14 January 2017
Sea Flooding at NWT Cley Marshes Nature Reserve
Saturday 14 January, 2017
Update: 18 January 2017
Following the flooding at the weekend, reserve staff are now carrying out a clean-up and repair programme. As at Thursday 18 January: the coast road is now open to access Cley, the Visitor Centre and car parks are open. The walks 'circuit' on the reserve is accessible however the hides and boardwalk will remain closed until further notice. The beach road is now clear but the beach car park is closed but likely that it will open at the weekend. Please check with the NWT Cley Visitor Centre for further information and updates.
Saturday 14 January 2017
Whilst it seems that most places had a lucky escape from the storm surge on 13 January 2017, not so at Norfolk Wildlife Trust's Cley Marshes which has incurred serious flooding and remains largely under seawater and inaccessible. NWT staff have been on the scene and report that there is some damage to infrastructure, but consider it is not as severe as due to the flooding which occurred in a similar storm surge in December 2013.
"Once we can regain access to the site, a clean-up operation will commence and we will be able to better assess the effects on wildlife and damage to fences, paths, hides and other infrastructure" said Brendan Joyce, CEO of NWT. "We have been here before so we have an inkling of what to expect. Whilst there will be a lot to do to recover the site, I am confident that we will once again bounce back and have Cley and Salthouse in shape again soon for wildlife and visitors. We are also pleased that so much of the rest of the coast has not been affected and that residents and homes alongside us are safe."
There is no doubt that there will be wildlife casualties, especially to the plant and invertebrate life on the reserve. It is impossible to say at this stage what the extent of the losses will be. This means that for a time there will be limited food available for the many species of birds and other wildlife that depend on the habitats for their survival. It is important, therefore, that the seawater is able to escape on the low tides as quickly as possible so that the freshwater habitats can recover.
At present, the visitor centre and reserve remain closed and visitors are advised to stay away until further notice. We hope to have the visitor centre open again as soon as the Coast Road is cleared and re-opened, but the reserve is likely to take longer. Visitors should check our website
or facebook and twitter for further updates.
"We know that the frequency of flooding incidents such as this are likely to occur more frequently due to climate change and it is just three years since the last such event. But we expect the reserve and its wildlife to recover and recognise that this is something that we will have to manage over time" said Mr Joyce. "I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Environment Agency and Natural England for giving us early warning and keeping us informed up to the event. This enabled us to be well prepared."

Heart Issue: Acting with Character
An individual's talent will take them as far as their character will let them go. Ethical behavior like many of our secondary behavior is learned and selected as a method of operating in the world. We can legislate behaviors but we cannot legislate attitude, morality or choices that people make.
We will examine why people make ethic choices while others do not. As we examine ethical decision making models we will explore how and why we need people to prick their heart to create lasting change.
Identify and discuss ethical decision making, social interest vs. personal interest.
Understand the impact culture has on character and the ability to make good choices.
Define character, goals and goal setting .
Increase awareness and understanding of the power of individual decision making
Understand the impact of taking an unpopular stance.
"Through innovative and interactive diversity education, personal empowerment, and team building, we help individuals and organizations approach old problems with new solutions." We help Government and Educational organizations manage and train staff, employees, and clients on diversity issues without blame, fault or guilt. We understand that people are doing the best they can with what they have. Yet we encourage them to examine themselves, explore other cultures, and become allies for others. We work to move people's behaviors not by pushing them or making them feel guilty. We dissect, analyze, and make meaning of the issues that challenge us in a fair, balanced way that people can hear and understand. We motivate individuals to create something collaboratively.

President Of The United States Trivia
February 20, 2012 by staff
President Of The United States Trivia, Barack Obama is the 44th president to serve as the United States' leader. He's also the first president to write email as president.
These and other quirky trivia items are being circulated as Presidents Day approaches on Monday.
History.com shared technical firsts such as Obama's first presidential email. President Rutherford Hayes was the first to use a telephone, and President John Quincy Adams was the first to be photographed.
The first president to fly in an airplane while in office was Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1943, according to ipl2.org .
Move over saxophone-playing President Bill Clinton; other trivial items include that President Richard M. Nixon played the most musical instruments.
As far as the most weight gained in office, not quite a healthy record, that would go to President William Howard Taft who gained 50 pounds his first term. Once he left office he lost 75.

Mars (Sol IV) is the fourth planet in the Sol system.
Most of the settlements on Mars are located under large domes linked by transport tubes. The tubes are heavily reinforced (reportedly indestructible), capable of easily withstanding blasts from grenades and explosives.
