The concept of 'recovery' has become a key aspect of mental health policy in many Western countries, especially where mental health legislation or policy is under review: e.g. New Zealand (Mental Health Commission NZ, 2001), England (Repper, 2000), Scotland (Scottish Executive, 2006) and Ireland (Mental Health Commission, 2006).
Historically in the early 20th century the treatment of mental disorder focused mainly, although not exclusively, on the containment of mental illness - doing things to patients, or for them. But gradually the assumption that professionals could 'fix' mental illness, waned and was increasingly overtaken by the view that people should participate in, if not actually lead, their own 'recovery' (Davidson and Strauss, 1992).

Jeff begins his Brazilian adventure on the Pixaim River where he finds a large community of endangered Giant River Otters and an enormous sunbathing Anaconda. He wrestles with a sevenfoot Caiman and treks in knee-deep Piranha-filled waters to get close to the largest rodent in the world, the Capybara. Finally, Jeff leaves the Pantanal for a remote, uninviting island called the Ilha de Queimada Grande, the only place on earth where you can find the deadly Golden Lancehead Pit Viper.
This is the epic story of how World War I changed the face of battle forever. This war was a war of firsts , a transitional war from old style hand-to-hand combat with small guns and fixed bayonets and cavalry charges to high-tech weaponry that are still features of present-day armed conflicts. Firsts include aerial bombardment of cities, epic tank battles, fight for control of the skies, development of submarines, chemical and bunker warfare. Troops who were bunkered down in vast trenches became overwhelmed by powerful, new weapons including tanks, WMDs, submarines and the first blitz.

|Lon Suder
Vital statistics
| Maquis
|Died 2373
Physical attributes
Lon Suder was a crewman aboard the USS Voyager during its time in the Delta Quadrant.
Suder was a Betazoid but unlike most of his species he seemed not to be empathic or telepathic. It is possible that this was related to his other personality disorders.
He joined the Maquis in 2370, though his homeworld was not under threat. He worked under Chakotay and was an effective member of the Maquis although he did not engender much affection from his colleagues. They regarded him as too efficient when killing Cardassians and this made them uncomfortable around him. In fact, Suder was using the Maquis as a release valve for his unnaturally violent nature.
Once aboard Voyager, his violent tendencies did not have an outlet and eventually he lost control, killing Crewman Frank Darwin in 2372.
A quick investigation by Tuvok uncovered his crime and he was put under house arrest in his quarters. An experimental Vulcan mind meld by Tuvok was carried out with the aim of helping Suder to control his impulses. While to some extent it was effective, the resulting trauma to the Vulcan's emotional systems resulted in him losing some of his own control, becoming dangerous and violent.
Suder was indefinitely confined to his quarters for his crime.
Over the next few months, Suder worked with Tuvok to maintain his self control and began to find enjoyment in other activities. He started work on Orchid breeding and eventually became proficient at genetic manipulation of plants. He had plans to use this talent to increase the output of the ship's airponics bay. (VOY: "Basics, Part I")
This progress came to a halt when Kazon-Nistrim agent Jal Tierna detonated a biological explosive on Voyager. The explosion took place adjacent to Suder's quarters and the Betazoid was believed killed. While the ship was taken over by the Kazon, Suder hid in an access conduit and managed to make it to sickbay where he found The Doctor, who was already planning to retake the ship when Suder arrived. During their sabotage efforts, Suder was forced to kill a Kazon soldier. Despite The Doctor's assurances that he had done the right thing, he succumbed to a panic attack as he had been working so hard to avoid his violent impulses.
Suder was instrumental in helping the the crew retake Voyager from Seska and the Kazon. After The Doctor was deactivated by Seska, Suder was left alone to disable the backup phaser couplings, but was slightly comforted by a message The Doctor had left him, in which he assured Suder that he had The Doctor's complete confidence; Suder had already shown great loyalty and dedication to his crew. With this in mind, Suder was able to sneak into engineering and launch a surprise attack, killing eleven Kazon soldiers single-handedly. After killing the Kazon that were holding engineering, he was able to sabotage the backup phaser coil, causing it to explode when it was activated (Tom Paris having disabled the primary couplings). He was killed by a Kazon soldier in the process.Thanks to Suder's bravery, Voyager was able to be retaken, making it possible for entire crew to continue on thier journey back home to the Alpha Quadrant. After the crew were back on Voyager, Tuvok spoke briefly over Suder's body after The Doctor and Paris had told him of Suder's heroism, offering him a Vulcan prayer wishing that, in death, Suder found the peace that he could never achieve in life.

Robot whiskers feel like rats, according to reports in ScienceNOW and Nature, vol. 443, p525, 5 October 2006. Rats can deliberately rotate their whiskers over objects as they explore their environment, and experiments with rats have shown that they can distinguish shapes and textures of objects as their whiskers sweep across them.
Engineers Joseph Solomon and Mitra Hartmann at Northwestern University, Illinois have built a device that uses whiskers to distinguish the shape and contours of objects it comes in contact with. The engineers proposed that rats detect the amount of torque (rotational force) in two dimensions at the base of the whisker when it encounters a surface. The amount of torque depends on the force at the point of contact and how far the encountered surface is from the base of the whisker. As the whisker repeatedly sweeps over an object, changes in torque can be used by mathematical model to calculate distances between the base of the whisker and object's surface. To test their model the researchers built a device with four whiskers attached to strain gauges at their bases. They then made the whiskers sweep over an object that had complex contours to see if the information collected from the whiskers could be used to map out the shape of the object. It worked, and the engineers hope to develop their system for use on exploration robots to monitor the terrain they are passing over.
Editorial Comment: The process of building this device began with observations of real rat whiskers and involved intelligent understanding of physics, engineering and computer modelling. If engineers eventually design a "rat robot" that can Use whiskers to help it monitor its surroundings, no-one will pretend that it evolved by chance. Therefore, it is deliberately ignorant to believe that the rat's whiskers and brain evolved by chance. (Ref. robotics, biomimetics, bio-engineering)

The Holy Grail Of Concealers -- Cle de Peau CorrecteurI have slept with every concealer on the market in an attempt to cover the dark circles under my eyes without the concealer settling into my crinkles, to no avail. My obsession lead me to Cle de peau Beaute. I was so excited when the UPS truck and a Doug Heffenan clone rang my doorbell, delivering the most often talked about and coveted beauty concealer - Cle de peau Beaute. This is THE concealer ...read morerecommend by Charla Krupp, author of How Not To Look Old. This product has also been hailed as the holy grail of concealers for dark circle coverage, as well as mature skin by many women. I ordered Ivory and Ocher not knowing which color would be best for my pale and pink skin. At $68 a tube, this is not your drugstore fashionista's concealer. In truth, I was running late for work and did not allow myself enough time to properly address my skin, so my first application of this concealer may not have been the best test. However, Ivory was the correct color for my skin. (I have pink undertones, so the ocher pulled orange.) My grave disappointment came when traveling to work -- at a speed I will not mention -- and I smiled in the rearveiw mirror expecting a reflection of smooth skin and saw instead the ivory concealer caked in my crinkles and wrinkles around my eyes. End of smile. I gave the concealer one more shot to see if it had anything to do with my application. Thank goodness I gave the concealer a second test drive. It was my method of application. Using a makeup brush the second time, I dipped the brush with a light hand past the tube. Then I applied the concealer. I won't be without what I now know is the Holy Grail of concealers. I don't often give a ten, but I will in this case. — 9 years, 5 months agogirlwomanbeautybrainsblog | 232 reviews

Search through millions of records to find out more.
1923 — Minsk, Belorussia
Hacia was the oldest of three girls born to a Jewish family in Minsk, the capital of Belorussia. Before World War II, more than a third of the city was Jewish. Hacia's father worked in a state-owned factory building furniture, an occupation in which several of his relatives also made a living. Hacia attended Soviet public schools throughout the late 1920s and early 1930s.
1933-39: The Rivkins' home was in central Minsk, on Novomesnitskaya Street. Hacia was a talented singer and was known as being the best singer in her neighborhood. As a young girl she was a member of the Soviet youth organization, Young Pioneers. By the late 1930s Minsk was filled with Polish refugees fleeing the German invasion.
1940-43: The invading Germans reached Minsk on June 27, 1941. Hacia's house was bombed the next day, and the family lived on the street until forced into the Minsk ghetto that August. On November 7, the anniversary of the Russian Revolution, Hacia and her family hid in their ghetto apartment during a German roundup of Jews. Leaving meant risking deportation or death. Waiting was agonizing. They were certain the Germans would come at any time. To soothe his family's nerves, Hacia's father recited stories from Jewish history.
Though they escaped deportation in 1941, Hacia's family was deported two years later. Hacia's sister Berta escaped the ghetto, but the others were never heard from again.
Because both of her parents had died by the time Vita was 5 years old, ...

I would like to create a website that has both russian and english text.Any suggestions on the best way to go about it?ThxD
Google translate or a style sheet switcher are two easy ways.
I guess i was more like wondering if i should include a language pac? google font api perhps?
Isn't google font API only presentation? Aka not searchable
I don't know...but I don't see how it could be non searchable.
Hi !There are some aspects which you should keep in mind while making your site multilingual. You can try to use Unicode – it provides a unique number for every character and works with all platforms, programs and languages. I will help you a lot to adapt your site to many languages.Also don't forget to adapt your content – work with localization and optimization.Good luck!
you can also use plugin or code for translate language. so that when ever the person opens your site in that country then it automatically redirects your website in the language they are using.
Sadly Google is not so hot when it comes to grammar and reads badly
Most web servers are prividing a feature called content negotation. It allows to deliver localised contents depending upon the language settings of your users' webbrowsers. See https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/content-negotiation.html for technical details on how to set up this feature on Apache.
About two weeks ago, I installed a WordPress plugin on all of my websites - WP Translate. Adds Google translate to your site. My sites can now be viewed in about 30 different languages. It has been working out just fine. And, by the way, Russian is one of the languages.
I do have a Goggle translate plug-in on the website. However what many people don't realise is that Google is not very good when grammar is taken into consideration; especially complex sentences or quotations. That's why I am getting native people to perform the translations for me.
To give you an example: a 'solar eclipse' cannot be translated into all other languages very well. In Swahili to express a 'solar eclipse' they use the terminology "a crocodile has eaten the sun," therefore mistranslations occur that can mislead or confuse a visitor.
Any kind of automatic translation service is (at this time) not very accurate. If you translate between two languages using similar grammar, you may get an acceptable (not good) result. However, I really cannot recommend using such services for commercial websites. They are a nice add-on when running a private site or a small blog, but as soon as you want to earn money from your web activities, it's really advised to hire a professional translator.
Everyone! Thank you for your advice

StevoLincolnite - Monday, September 03, 2012 - linkChipset fans.
WHY!? They're noisy, probably fail quickly when filled up with dust...
I have the Asus Sabertooth x79 which has 2 small fans on it and the noise they generate drives me bonkers, thankfully the board has a 5 year warranty... Heck most of these chipset fans aren't even a standardized size so replacing them on your own is going to be tough/impossible. Reply
Grebuloner - Monday, September 03, 2012 - linkI think you might want to check your board or your case cooling setup then. I can't hear the fans on my Sabertooth unless I stick my ear up to the grill on the I/O plate, and the chipset fan is inaudible over the 580 it sits next to. Reply
owan - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - linkIts not rocket science, its right there in the review: 35+W underneath a very low-profile heatsink. Passive cooling just wasn't going to cut it. I swear, if people are going to complain about stuff on this motherboard, they could do a lot better than whinging about the fan. Reply

When people make errors they do so largely unconsciously, human beings DONT live in reality sadly, including you. What you understand or makes it to your conscious awareness is only a fraction of what is going on in your brain which by and large you don't control.
Just remember the world doesn't operate on our expectations, morality and 'free will' it operates on cause and effect - the laws of nature. Everyone forgets this fact every day and it leads to great comedy!
The human mind has limited resources with which to attempt to model the world and it's environment so we should expect errors and blunders as just a law of nature that in many instances people not as blesses in terms of well functioning complex of biological processes.

mfenn - Monday, September 03, 2012 - linkThe comment in the article, "the LSI controller allows for RAID 0, 1 and 10 only, which is a little odd," struck me as a little odd.
The LSI SAS 2308 is a lower-end chip based on their Fusion-MPT architecture, which has never had an onboard cache or parity (RAID5 and 6) support. Fusion-MPT chips, suitably rebranded of course, are typically used as the base option for SAS connectivity in enterprise-grade servers, with an option to upgrade to a more featureful RAID controller with onboard cache and parity support.

yahodahan - Monday, September 03, 2012 - linkAnandtech is a great review site, but there really needs to be a properly useful benchmark here.
We're talking about a board that is built for massive GPU compute, so how about an actual GPU compute benchmark? Otherwise, this review has a massive, massive hole in it.
Blender is free. Cycles is free. They have benchmark files ready to open and click "run", it's not a big hassle. And it will push every single GPU to 100%, thrash this board in a real test, and give us (people who intend to actually use the board for real GPU work, as it was intended), the data we need most.
There's so much detailed info in this article, and I appreciate that, but it's honestly missing the most important part, it would be great to see a proper follow-up/etc to fix this. Reply
cjb110 - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - linkBlender might be free, but time isn't! Even if they ran the test, a single number on its own would be useless...esp to the general reader.
It was mentioned in the review that this product is a little out of the norm for their testing.
But it is handled consistent with their other reviews, which makes more sense, than running a bunch of tests with no comparison points.
If you want a specialised review for the boards target market I'm sure they're out there.
But maybe Blender could be included in the standard test suite, could cut down the number of game tests (these don't seem to differ much between boards). Reply
yahodahan - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - linkSure, but that's the point: a review like this should take the time to focus directly on what actually matters, and in this case that is GPU compute performance (and RAID, for others).
This board is a specialty case, and should be treated as such. Drop in 4 GPU's at x16 each, then 6 at x8, and do a render to see if there is a difference.
Then, test on a board with two "real" (non PLEX) x16 slots, and see if there is a difference vs 2 x16 on this boards "multiplied" channels.
This would give some numbers that are really, truly meaningful. Yes, it would take time, but why was time taken to benchmark it on games/etc, when it's been shown time and again that those numbers simply don't change and mean practically nothing?
What I'm trying to say is, this board is for a niche market- so please, test it for that niche market, not for the general masses that will never, ever use it. Reply

lukarak - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - linkThat's not entirely true.

Death666Angel - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - linkLike lukarak said, that is not true. The English language uses "an", when the word following it starts with a vowel sound. That doesn't necessarily mean it has a vowel as the first character (see hour).
As for abbreviations, there is no rule for it. Some people pronounce them like a single word, others don't. I use LAN, RAM, RAID as a word, but pronounce SAS as S.A.S. and SATA as S.ATA for example and SNES as S.NES. You can't appease both groups. So I think the writer of the article should go with whatever he feels most comfortable with, so that he avoids flipping between things unconsciously. Reply

ypsylon - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - linkBut little is delivered.
1. Primitive RAID option. Without even small cache it is as useful as Intel Storage Matrix RAID. Of course for R 1/10 parity calculations are not required so lack of XOR chip isn't an issue, but believe me even 128 MB of cache would improve performance greatly.
2. They bolted 8 SATA/SAS ports to the board instead using standard server oriented SFF-8087 connector. You get one cable running 4 drives not 4 separate cables for each separate drive. Very clumsy solution. And very, very cheap. Exactly what I expect of ASR.
3. If someone wants RAID buy a proper hardware controller, even for simple setups of R1/10 - plenty of choice on the market. When you change the board in the future you just unplug controller from old board and plug it into new one. No configuration is needed, all arrays remain the same. Idea of running RAID off the motherboard is truly hilarious, especially if somebody change boards every year or two.
4. Fan on south bridge (or the only bridge as north bridge is in the CPU now? ;) ). Have mercy!
5. They pretend it is WS oriented board yet they equip it with lame Broadcom NICs. Completely clueless, that kind of inept reasoning is really typical of ASRock.
6.And finally why persist with ATX. At least E-ATX would be better choice. Spacing some elements wouldn't hurt. Especially with 7 full PCI-Ex slots. Impossible to replace RAM when top slot is occupied, and with really big VGAs it really is tight squeeze between CPU, RAM and VGA. Why not drop top slot to allow air to circulate. Without proper cooling in the case there will be a pocket of hot air which will never move.
To sum up. Bloody expensive, dumb implementation of certain things, and cheaply made. Like 99% of ASRock products. Cheap Chinese fake dressed like Rolls-Royce. In short:stay away. Reply
dgingeri - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - link1. Many server manufacturers equip their small business servers with a low end chip like that because of cost. Small businesses, like those who would build their own workstation class machines, have to deal with a limited budget. This works for this market space.
2. I don't see any sign of a SFF-8087 port or cable. I see only SATA ports. Honestly, I would have preferred a SFF-8087 port/cable, as my Dell H200 in my Poweredge T110 II uses. It would take up less real estate on the board and be more manageable. I know this from experience.
3. Yeah, the Dell H200 (or it's replacement H310) has plenty of ports (8) and runs <$200 yet any hardware raid controller with a cache would run $400 for 4 ports or about $600 for 8. (I have a 3ware 9750 in my main machine that ran me $600.) Depending on your target market, cost could matter. They get what they can with the budget they have.
4. I'd have to agree with you on the fan, but there's also the little matter of keeping clearance for the video cards top populate the slots. Take off the decorative plate and make the heatsink bigger, and they could probably do without the fan. Unfortunately, there are lots of stupid people out there who buy things on looks rather than capability.
5. Broadcom NICs are vastly superior to the Realtek or Atheros NICs we usually see on DIY boards. I would be happier to see Intel NICs, but Broadcom is still the second best on the market. I have 2 dual port Broadcom NICs in my Dell T110 II machine (which I use as a VMWare ESXI box to train up for certification and my home server.)They work quite well, as long as you don't use link aggregation.
6. Many people wouldn't be able to afford a case that would handle E-ATX, especially the target market for this board.
For the target market, DIY part time IT guy for a small business trying to make a decent CAD station or graphics workstation, it would work fairly well. I'm just not sure about the reliability factor, which would cost a small business big time. I'd say stay away just on that factor. Do with a little less speed and more reliability if you want to stay in business. Dell makes some nice IB workstations that would be perfectly reliable, but wouldn't be as speedy as a SB-E machine. Reply
08solsticegxp - Sunday, June 09, 2013 - linkYou have to realize, this board is not a server board. If it was designed for that, I'm sure they would have two sockets. Also, it is much cheaper to add the LSI chip to the board than have it as an add-on card. If it was an add-on card... where do you expect it to go when using 4 Video cards?
I think the board is designed very well for what it was intended for. You may want to consider looking at design as it relates to the intended purpose... Not, some other purpose.
I will agree to say I would have liked to see a Raid 5 option on the RAID controller. However, looking at the price of an LSI (who are noted for being a high quality RAID controller) it is pretty pricey when you start getting to the controllers that have RAID 5 as an option. Reply
cjs150 - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - linkAll those right angled, stacked SATA connectors and the 24 pin ATX connector is still sticking straight up!
Come on, it costs little to make this a right angled connector and makes for much better cable management (especially if you are also using all the SATA connectors)
Has anyone checked the accuracy of the ASRock Hardware monitor for temperatures? There are reports that on other ASRock board these are significantly inaccurate.
Ultimately other than M/B p#rn not really sure what market this board is aimed at. For a workstation I would prefer dual CPUs and 48 PCI lanes Reply
dgingeri - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - linkI think that LSI 2308 chip is the same as the chip used in Dell's PERC H310 controller, with slightly different firmware/bios. (Dell customizes theirs to call it a PERC and label it as a Dell controller, but it is still labeled as a LSI copyright.) If so, that's a very good controller, from my experience. Reply

dgingeri - Tuesday, September 04, 2012 - linkWith AMD providing absolutely no competition in this space, I would say it is unlikely they'll come out with any updates worthy of spending money. Think of the time with the P4 while AMD wasn't providing competition. Intel put out processors from 2.8 to 3.8GHz over the course of 2 years which cost more and gobbled up more electricity, yet provided minimal performance enhancement. (iirc, the 3.8GHz chip was only about 10% faster than the 2.8GHz chip because of memory bandwidth limitations and thermal throttling, yet Intel charged more than double the intro price than the 2.8GHz for the 3.8GHz chip.) Intel without competition is just a money hog, gobbling up more and more money with little to show for it. I doubt Haswell with be anything special, either. IB certainly isn't.
Oh, yeah, they say Haswell will be 10% faster than IB at the same clock rate. While AMD was providing competition, they were putting out things that ran 50-60% faster per clock, and had faster clock rates to boot. So, at the price point, we'd get a 75-100% boost per generation. (Core 2 had a drop in clock rate, sure, but it was WAY faster than the P4, giving us a 80%+ performance boost at the same clock rate. Coppermine was a huge boost in both clock rate and efficiency. Katmai was a huge boost in clock rate and efficiency. Same with Klamath and Deschutes. Yet, the P4 generation was a huge stall point, and also the point where most of Intel competitors got out of the race and AMD was way behind.)
I wish someone would come into the market and provide an little incentive to get Intel to move their butts forward, but we're not going to see that for probably another decade. Reply

The University of Melbourne in Australia has just announced a fascinating breakthrough in experimental physics. Dr Andrew Greentree of the School of Physics at the University of Melbourne, with colleagues Jared Cole and Professor Lloyd Hollenberg of the University of Melbourne, and Dr Charles Tahan of the University of Cambridge, has shown theoretically how to engineer a "phase transition" in photons, leading them to change their state so that they interact with each other in a manner similar to electrons.
A phase transition occurs when a type of matter changes its state, such as when water becomes ice or steam. According to Cole, "Usually, photons flow freely, but in the right circumstances, they repel each other, and form a crystal." This is what the team members call "Solid light."
So far, the team appears to have laid the theoretical framework for solid light crystals, but they have yet to produce one, nor are they entirely forthcoming about how they will proceed. Nevertheless, this is pretty cool stuff, considering quantum mechanics on one hand and Superstring theory on the other – or perhaps together, considering what Superstring theory really does.
I can see a future female shopper in a high-end jewelry store comparing the differences between a flawless diamond and a photon crystal...but that begs the question of how one would actually see a solid light crystal!

Rep. Brad Sherman said an unflattering video capturing his heated exchange with Rep. Howard Berman in a debate Thursday night may cost him a small number of voters, but that longtime supporters will shrug off the incident.
"This may cost me the votes of 300 people," Sherman said in a phone interview Friday. "If (Berman's campaign) can exploit the video."
Sherman acknowledged he'd crossed a line with Berman during the debate between the two 30th Congressional District candidates.
During an argument over a federal immigration bill, Berman walked over to Sherman and glared at him. Sherman, 57, responded by throwing his arm roughly around the 71-year-old Berman's shoulders and saying: "You want to get into this?"
"I put my arm around him and that wasn't a cool thing to do," Sherman said on Friday.
But Sherman accused Berman's campaign manager, Brandon Hall, of editing out key parts of the video and "hyping and mischaracterizing" the exchange between the politicians. The first, 22-second video released by Berman's campaign shows only the direct confrontation, and not the arguments that led up to it, or that Berman first took a step toward Sherman and called him "delusional."
"I have never had someone rush in and put their nose in front of my nose," Sherman said.
Berman acknowledged at the end of the debate that things got heated between the two men, but those remarks were edited out of the final video, according to Sherman.
Following Thursday's debate, Berman's campaign seized on the incident, sending out two YouTube videos and a press release headlined "Brad Sherman attempts to start fight at college debate."
The videos and the story have gone viral, appearing on NBC's Today Show and even in a British newspaper. One snarky online post in The Jewish Daily Forward dubbed the incident: "When Balding Jews Attack."
Asked if he thought the video would hurt his campaign, Sherman replied: "Not really."
"If people don't know me, then I will have to explain (what happened) to them. But people in the West Valley know me...they know I face confrontation."
But he could lose support with voters who've just moved to the Valley, who might see the video, Sherman acknowledged. He figured that could translate to about 300 voters.
"This isn't anything that I am proud of," Sherman said, of Thursday's debate. "It's not going to go on my highlight reel."

A mob of about 40 to 50 fans fought in the road before an AFC Wimbledon match last month.
Police are appealing for witnesses to the violence at about 2.30pm on February 22 which caused traffic to come to a standstill on the Kingston Road outside the Kingsmeadow stadium.
Acting Det Sgt Valerie Tanner said: "We have made a number of arrests following the disorder but need to identify further outstanding suspects.
"There was a volatile atmosphere on the day in question.
"When violence erupted, officers feared for their own safety as well as the safety of AFC Wimbledon stewards, who had come to their assistance.
"Members of the public were also put at risk and those attending the match with young children, were no doubt shocked and terrified at the level of violence they saw.
"It was clear that the situation was a confrontation between opposing fans as they continually made attempts to reach each other despite police intervention.
"The suspects were spilling into the road and causing hazard and disruption to traffic.
"This situation had great potential to escalate and as well as an appeal for witnesses I am looking for members of the community who witnessed the disorder to contact us, as they may be able to provide us with further information."
There were about 3,740 fans at the game which Bury won 1v0.
AFC Wimbledon have banned six fans as a result of the violence.
Two men were arrested after the match – one on suspicion of affray and one on suspicion of assaulting a police officer.
A third man was arrested in Worcester Park on March 13 on suspicion of violent disorder. He has been bailed to return to a police station in mid-May.

"We are contemplating an IPO, but have not decided on specific timing or plans," CBM's CEO, Vladimir Chubar, tells bne in an exclusive interview. "It depends on if the market improves, as the current valuation levels for Russian banks are not necessarily attractive. We are still growing, we have one of the lowest cost/income ratios and the return on equity of about 18-20% is one of the best in the sector.

Michael Clarke continued his Bradman-like form and became the first Test batsman in history to pass 200 four times in a calendar year, as Australia destroyed an injury-hit South Africa on the first day of the second Test in Adelaide.
The home side reached an overwhelming 5-482 at stumps on Thursday against the world's No.1-ranked Test nation, the equal most runs by an Australian team in a day.
It was far from a one-man show.David Warner returned to his swashbuckling best with 119 from 112 balls and Mike Hussey brought up his second consecutive ton before being dismissed at the death for 103.
Clarke has already posted scores of 329 not out, 210 and 259 not out in 2012 and added another compelling unbeaten 224 from 243 balls on Thursday.
The 31-year-old is yet to be dismissed this series for a total of 488 runs.The Australian skipper and opener Warner combined for a lightning 155-run partnership, before Hussey and Clarke put on 272.
It was a record team total for a day's play at the Adelaide Oval and there's the prospect of much more with South Africa walking wounded.
Proteas' pace weapon Vernon Philander was ruled out before play with a back problem, while stars Jacques Kallis and Dale Steyn were forced off the field during the day with hamstring problems.
Clarke smashed 39 boundaries and a six (including five fours off a Morne Morkel over to bring up his 150) and his 1265 runs this year at 140.55 are the 10th most in a year by an Australian.Warner, under pressure coming into the match, clobbered 16 boundaries and four sixes.
He was in a venomous mood from the outset but, inspired by Kallis, South Africa pinned Australia back to 3-55 after Ed Cowan (10), Rob Quiney (0) and Ricky Ponting (4) fell within 15 balls.
When Kallis (2-19) hobbled off during his fourth over, Clarke and Warner took that as a licence to thrill.Late in the day, Steyn (1-62) also left for the stands but, in encouraging signs, he did return to the field before the close.
Philander and Kallis went for scans on Thursday, and the Proteas will be desperate their champion allrounder can return to help the batting effort at least.
Compounding the disastrous day for South Africa were two unsuccessful challenges on Clarke, and an overturned decision for Morne Morkel on Hussey, when umpire Billy Bowden was proven to have incorrectly given him out caught behind.
At lunch, Australia were 3-102 but, by tea, they had reached 4-280 - thanks to 178 runs in 26 overs scored in the middle session at seven an over. The scoring reached 10 runs an over at one point.Morkel was dangerous at times but went for 2-128, Rory Kleinveldt 0-70 and spinner Imran Tahir was pasted for 0-159.

Posts Tagged headers
Add headers and footers | InDesign
InDesign is a powerful, layout design program, that you can use to create professional publications. InDesign does not demarcate any fixed space for headers and footers, but lets you decide where to place content. Based on your layout design requirements, you can place content anywhere on the page. This flexibility is good, but can leave beginners a little confused.
In this blog post, we'll take a quick look at how to add content that we want on pages across the document: such as headers, footers, and page numbers. It is fairly easy, but some theory first.
Master pages
The secret ingredient, (if it ever was a secret), is placing content on master pages.
You may consider a master page to be a background that you can quickly apply to many pages. Any objects placed on a master appear on all pages to which that master is applied. In Design, objects on master pages that appear on document pages are surrounded by a dotted border. All changes you make to a master are automatically applied to associated pages. Masters commonly contain repeating logos, page numbers, headers, and footers. They can also contain empty text or graphic frames that serve as placeholders on document pages. You can't normally select a master item on a document page.
For more information, see Master Pages in InDesign.
Special characters and text variables
The other ingredient is variables. InDesign provides a large array of variables that you can use. Variables are placeholders whose value depends on the context. InDesign also provides some commonly used variables, called Markers, so that you don't have to take the trouble to define them. For example, the Current Page Number marker displays the current page number. As you navigate to other pages, the marker is updated accordingly.
For more information, see Text Variables.
Adding Headers and Footers
You must have figured out the rest. Add a variable on the master page and you've created running headers and footers. To add headers and footers, we need to place content on the master pages. InDesign does not care where you place this content on the master page. The software lets you decide and gives you complete freedom on placement of content. Headers and footers
For the sake of this example, let's place page numbers in the footer, and a title on the header.
- In InDesign, create a new document (File > New > Document ) or open an existing document.
- Open the Pages panel (Window > Pages). The Pages panel displays a list of existing pages, as well as master pages in a document. See Pages and Spreads.
- Double-click a master page to open it. The selected master page is highlighted as shown above.
- Select the Text tool and draw a text frame(s) on the page, and let the blinking text cursor be inside the frame.
- To add content:
- Choose Type > Insert Special Character > Markers > Current Page Number.
- Choose Type > Text Variables > Insert Variable > File Name
Tip: You can use a combination of Markers and Variables to get effects like Page x of y.
- Move the text frames on the page, and format text, or apply styles change the visual appearance of the text.
- In the Pages panel, double-click a document page. The items you placed and styled, will appear on all the document pages, to which the master page is applied. (In the above image, the letter A displaying on the top-right of page 1 thumbnail, shows that master page A is applied to document page 1.

VETERANS' campaigners in Burnley are in advanced talks over establishing a national partnership to tackle post-traumatic stress disorder and related conditions among ex-soldiers.
The leaders of Veterans Association UK (VAUK), based in Springfield Road, are hopeful they can work with at least one other national organisation to provide better access to psychological services for former troops.
Chief executive Tony Hayes said that VAUK has already managed to secure assistance for 27 members who have been in contact with their office. And he is confident substantial progress can be made on the issue when he attends two Parliamentary meetings next month.
Mr Hayes said: "There are various proposals being discussed at the moment but we know that access to these services in certain parts of the country is nothing short of a disgrace." The plans were formulated after VAUK was invited to the House of Lords, by Dame Tammi-Grey Thompson for a discussion on assisted suicide, which was attended by a number of peers, the mental health charity MIND and health colleges.
If the initiative gets off the ground following talks on June 11, Mr Hayes is also hopeful of involving former members of the emergency services, who may be suffering from similar issues.
Mr Hayes and his colleagues will also meet Housing Minister Kris Hopkins to discuss the association's long-standing camp- aign to ensure priority housing for ex-military personnel and homeless veterans.
The talks have been secured amid concerns that previous legislation is not helping enough veterans into accommodation.
Last year VAUK's refurbished Burnley HQ, home to a number of educational courses, was opened by Lord Shuttleworth and there is now a regional network of co-ordinators.

No breakthrough expected in Morocco - Polisario talks
Morocco and Western Sahara's independence movement have opened talks to try to resolve a 32-year-old dispute over the territory, but diplomats expected no quick breakthrough.
Officials from Morocco and the Polisario Front, as well as Algeria - where Polisario is based - and neighbouring Mauritania held two days of meetings at a private estate near New York. Morocco annexed the former Spanish colony after Madrid pulled out in 1975. The United Nations brokered an end to a low-level guerrilla war in 1991 but no political solution has followed.
The sides have met at least four times before, most recently in 2000 in Berlin, but United Nations officials have billed this week's talks as the best chance so far to end a dispute.
According to Reuters, UN Under-Secretary-General for Political Affairs Lynn Pascoe told the closed talks the stalemate was "intolerable" and an agreement must be reached giving self-determination to Sahara's people, UN spokesperson Michele Montas said. "The entire international community (is) deeply interested in events unfolding here today. Time has come for a solution," she quoted Pascoe as telling the UN-mediated meeting.

PORT CLINTON -- Restoration work on a century-old wooden lighthouse has stalled amid a disagreement between its owners and a northwest Ohio city along Lake Erie.
The Port Clinton Lighthouse Conservancy and the owner want to put the revamped, four-sided structure at a park just offshore.But Port Clinton officials want it further from the water, The Toledo Blade reported.
After a yearlong stalemate, the conservancy is trying to rally residents to pressure city officials to change their minds.
Conservancy president Richard Norgard argued in a letter to the newspaper that putting the preserved lighthouse on the waterfront could attract visitors and help boost the local economy.
"We believe that the full restoration of the lighthouse and its placement on the waterfront will do more than preserve a vital piece of local history for future generations," Norgard wrote.
The lighthouse was built in 1896 and guided boaters entering the Portage River for about three decades, but it was relocated and has been at its owner's marina for more than 60 years.
Owner Darrell Brand and the conservancy began talking with city officials in November 2011 about how the lighthouse could contribute to downtown revitalization. Brand offered to transfer ownership to the city, whose council accepted the offer before negotiations fell apart.
Mayor Vincent Leone said Brand's demands included placing the lighthouse in a certain park.
"Anytime we can secure an important part of our history we think it's a good idea," Leone said. "But it was a gift with a lot of conditions, so I was unwilling to accept those."
The conservancy has raised about $13,000 of the expected $30,000 total project cost, said John Smothers, a member of the restoration group.
He and other volunteers have started refurbishing the top of the lighthouse, which was removed more than a year ago. He said the next step would be replacing rotted wood and the base.

Rodney A. Smolla, Dean and Roy L. Steinheimer, Jr. Professor of Law
"While Dean Smolla's new appointment recognizes his outstanding personal accomplishments as a scholar, teacher, and leader in higher education, I also want to congratulate the faculty at the School of Law for all they have accomplished together under Dean Smolla's leadership for the Law School and for Washington and Lee," said Aprille.
Established in 2004 by alumni and friends, the professorship honors Roy L. Steinheimer, Jr., who served as dean of the School of Law from 1968 to 1983. The first dean to come from outside of the W&L faculty, Steinheimer instituted admissions policies that made the law school a stronger national institution with a more diverse student body. Sydney Lewis Hall also was planned and constructed during Steinheimer's tenure as Dean.
"Dean Roy Steiheimer, known affectionately to many as the 'Sky Dean' for his tireless efforts to promote and lead Washington and Lee during his transformative years as Dean of the Law School, is a giant in the School's history," said Dean Smolla. "It is an honor to hold the chair established to recognize his extraordinary contributions to this school and our profession."
Dean Smolla is nationally recognized as a scholar, teacher, advocate, and writer. His wide-ranging scholarship includes four legal treatises, a casebook on the First Amendment, a coauthored casebook on constitutional law, and scores of articles in the nation's top law reviews. He also writes widely for general audiences, including popular books such as Deliberate Intent and Jerry Falwell v. Larry Flynt. His commentary appears frequently in national print and electronic media, including a recent analysis of the Wall Street bailout plan in Slate and an editorial about W&L's new third-year reform in the Legal Times.Email This Page

The trays contain 25 3-ml, one-inch safety syringes and are available in case quantities with 40 trays in a case. The flu trays include the patented InviroSNAP! Safety Syringes. These syringes function like traditional syringes, but the device is engineered with a safety feature integral to the design. After using standard technique to administer a medication dose from the safety syringe, the clinician pulls the plunger back, causing the needle to retract inside the barrel. The plunger is then snapped off, permanently disabling the device. These easy-to-use syringes help hospitals and healthcare professionals reduce the incidence of needlestick injuries on the job, and can be especially critical in settings where flu shots and other vaccinations are being administered in bulk.

State officials gave the city of Kenner permission Thursday to refinance $47 million in sales tax bonds despite objections from residents.
The city wants to refinance debt and make major thoroughfares more aesthetically pleasing. The planned improvements include bicycle lanes, public art and landscaping. Much of the focus will be on Loyola Drive or Williams Boulevard.
The borrowing plan went before the state Bond Commission Thursday at the State Capitol.
Richard Brown, a member of Citizens for a Better Kenner, complained about the city's handling of the bonds. He said city officials ignored rules in a rush to get the plan moving. "We believe this is premature," he said.
Brown said the city council resolution approving the bond issue will not be valid for another two days. He said the city submitted an application to the state Bond Commission before the city council considered the issue.
"The resolution you have has no force of law," said Walt Bennetti, president of Citizens for a Better Kenner.
Whit Kling, director of the State Bond Commission, said he could not offer an opinion on whether the city followed its rules.
Kling said state officials could approve the borrowing contingent on the city resolution becoming valid. "Whether or not it was under the city ordinance, I can't address," he said.
Kent Schexnayder, the city of Kenner's financial adviser, said the city wants to refund outstanding bonds for an interest rate savings and borrow additional money.
"We've held a number of town hall meetings, press conferences to address all these issues. They can raise their objections. We submitted all the information timely. The council adopted the resolution. We submitted that," Schexnayder said.
State Treasurer John Kennedy offered Citizens for a Better Kenner and Schexnayder time to huddle about their differences.
"Would it be productive to ask y'all to meet and try to work this out?" Kennedy asked.
Schexnayder rejected the offer.
"Their objections will be their objections no matter what," Schexnayder said.
Brown said he just wants the proper procedure to be followed. "We just think they've rushed this," Brown said.
State Sen. Ed Murray, D-New Orleans, made a motion for the commission to approve the borrowing.
Lt. Gov. Jay Dardenne interjected, suggesting that the commission make approval contingent on the effective date of the city resolution. State officials agreed, without objection, to the suggestion.
The bond issue is part of the city's "2030 Strategic Plan for a Prosperous Future."
The borrowing calls for $14.5 million in refunding bonds and $32.5 million in revenue bonds. Part of the money will be used to create a maintenance reserve fund in addition to funding improvements.

GW Pharma's cannabis based epileptic drug on its way
by Jack123 October 22, 2012
22 october 2012 ; GW Pharmaceuticals, a drug manufacturing Biotech Company has been found to provide a significant and promising medication for treatment of epilepsy based on cannabis. This drug company has already commercialized its cannabis-based medication for treatment of multiple Sclerosis (MS).
The recent novel research studies carried out in animals has shown that cannabidivarin, a natural compound present in cannabis had the potential to suppress seizures in a wide range of research models afflicted with the detrimental epileptic condition. Ben Whalley, the lead researcher of the study said that the current study has proved to be an existing and a breakthrough investigation of the research group as it showed the involvement of the non-psychoactive constituents of the cannabis as an effective and a significant clinical option for treatment of the delirious epileptic illness. He also added that the current world is demanding for better clinical measures to cure epilepsy as these clinical needs are being unmet for many years. This clinical disorder is regarded to be associated with no treatment option and the available treatment options prove futile in more than one third of the people afflicted with this condition along with resulting in serious health complications as well as enhancing the cases of mortality. The common side effects of these anti-epileptic drugs those are usually prescribed to get rid of this detrimental health condition affect the cognitive as well as mental abilities in the patients.
This drug has also been found to work in conjugation with other clinical therapies and do not cause any clinical effect related to the primary metabolite of the cannabis. Jack is a Medical Student and a freelancer who is specialized in writing. He is associate with many Pharmacies for whom he writes articles based on generic drugs and general health related issues.
heck they could have called me... i would have given them this info for free.. Things are changing folks... marijuana does help seizures in some people.. Doesn't matter if your 6 or sixty i've seen the miracles with this harmless plant keep it green as a bullfrog and sticky as glue....marty aka xgi

Jennifer Lopez thinks you're an idiot
Jennifer Lopez confirmed her pregnancy during a concert in Miami last night and the crowd went insane at the announcement. Even her husband Marc Anthony was surprised. He didn't think she was going to talk and reveal their secret. They were hiding it so well. People reports:
Lopez thanked the audience for the applause and said, "We are happy, too." She then turned sideways to reveal her profile and show off her very noticeable bump. She also playfully stuck out her tongue.
Oh, you're a sneaky one, Jennifer Lopez. You totally had us fooled. Talk about diabolical. Fortunately for you it's completely normal for an accomplished dancer to start waddling on stage because of a sudden increase in weight. Particularly in the stomach area. Yeah, that happens all the time – to pregnant chicks! I swear to God the next celebrity that tries to playfully deny she's having a kid is getting a surprise sonogram from me. Except it won't be sexy like my business card promises. Okay, maybe just a little. Gotta keep things professional.
