Evolution Hoax
A9 TV, Aug 15th, 2012
Those who look at the Middle East with an attentive eye will see the conflict between the communist world and those believers. Nobody knew that Iran was on the side of communism; it is only now that they have learned this. We used to know Iran to be an Islamic Republic, it is however a sheer communist country. Mosques are empty in Iran, you can go and see yourselves, they are empty. There is no one in the mosques. When a statesman lectures in universities, students are forced to attend . Everyone has to applaud. A great majority of these lecturers and students are Darwinists and Marxists. You can not find a student who is not a Darwinist. You can not find a person who performs his prayers. Why does Iran support Syria? Because it is communist. It also supports the PKK. For instance, Iran is known to be officially against the PKK. No! They are of the same mindset.
Iran, Syria, Afghanistan…There are lots of communists in Afghanistan. It is not a situation that can be handled by the police or the army. It will not solve the problem. If we attempt to transfer more soldiers to those regions, even if 10 times Turkey's population is sent there, that would still be insufficient. That would not be accomplished with soldiers; it can only be done with science, philosophy, faith and wisdom. It would not be otherwise. For instance the PKK- it engages in sly deeds, they employ propoganda. What does propaganda mean? It is a method that convinces people. They engage in psychological propaganda and convince the public. It is a form of technical work that attaches importance to the human psychology, to the mood of people. This is also a scientific work and they instill communist ideology into people. Communism is not an idea that can be considered to be insignificant. Beginning from the time of Prophet Adam (as), all prophets are warned against the peril of communism.
Communism is the greatest source of disorder in world history. It is the greatest source of disorder of all times. At the time of the Day of Judgment, the world again will become communist. Notice that at the end of the world the world will turn to communism, there will be communist sovereignty. Notice that the end of the world also comes to an end with communism. The time of the Day of Judgment is the most rampant time of communism. Consequently those who do not say a word about communism do so because they fear it, or because they feel that it may prosper if they talk about it. They also fear from not being able to cope with it because they have inadequate information and culture. This is the main reason, Allah knows the truth. That is why they don't want to bring it up. But fear does not prevent what is predestined.
Communism's most fragile location, its heart, is Darwinism. If you want to demolish it, you have to demolish Darwinism. The most fragile location of Darwinism is fossils and proteins, the structure of proteins. That is because there exists no room for demagogy. That is why they use such desperate expressions.
According to them, Karl Marx prophesies: According to their own mindset, he gives news from the future and allegedly says, "The society will proceed towards communist society." Nobody can stop this in the process of the history." The men are hypnotized in the face of this. Just as how people feel excited when we say that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will come, communists also feel so when they hear such words because communism is the religion of the anti-Christ, it has also its own mystical aspects.
The profound aspects of the religion exist everywhere and they are also present in communism. They always talk about the "inevitable". Communists for instance say, "There will be an inevitable civil war." Or, "Revolution is inevitable." They say, "Being inevitable, we have to abide by what is inevitable." That is why, in order not to be thwarted by this ruse, Darwinism must be demolished, for Darwinism is the key of dialectical philosophy, it is the heart of communism.
Establishing the Unity of Islam (is essential); and even only the unity of Muslims would be insufficient; Muslims would still be unable to defeat (communism) unless they ally with Christians. The mere power of Muslims would not be sufficient, it is a very rampant system. However only alliance with Christians, the prayer of Prophet Jesus (as) and the efforts of Hazrat Mahdi (as) will allow us to obtain any results insha'Allah.
In the Qur'an, Allah draws attention to the prayer of Prophet Jesus (as). Whenever Prophet Jesus (as) prays, Allah heeds it immediately. Prophet Jesus (as) has such a miracle. Because his followers know this, they say, "May Allah grant us a table from heavens, so that we can believe in you more." Whenever he prays, his prayer is absolutely heeded, immediately heeded. Because he was a man of strong faith, a very blessed person, Allah has created such beauty, such a privilege for him. Allah has created him with such beauty. Every prayer of Prophet Jesus (as) is heeded.
In Iran Darwinism, Darwinist thought is being officially taught to the young people. Then they talk about superstitions. Like mocking they say, "Mahdi (as) penetrates the walls or, at homes, he may be seen in the form of an object. According to their mindset, there is no need for Hazrat Mahdi (as) to come because since he appears in every home, and penetrates the walls, "he appears in the form of light." The Iranian statesmen have the pictures showing Hazrat Mahdi (as) as light. The light of Hazrat Mahdi (as) reaches everywhere, their hands, faces, in the form of light.
Surat al-Kahf, Verse 77
"So they went on until they reached the inhabitants of a town. They asked them for food but they refused them hospitality." This is the first reaction people show to the ones whom they are unacquainted with. They avoid hosting them. This does not hold true for Prophet Abraham (as). People whom he does not know come to visit him. He immediately serves food to them, sets a table and treats them very well. "They found there a wall about to fall down and he built it up." It is evident that Hazrat Khidir (as) was a mason. What does mason mean? Mason. This is the verse from which Fremasonry is inspired.
Musa said, 'If you had wanted, you could have taken a wage for doing that." The fact is however, in Islam, there is the concept of engaging in a deed only for Allah's good approval. People feel surprised when they see others displaying moral perfection. They ask, "Why did you forgive? Why did you show love? Why were you compassionate?" For instance, one becomes scared when a person helps him. They consider not helping to be normal. They feel concerned when one shows them love. In this case also, notice that he says, , 'If you had wanted, you could have taken a wage for doing that." The fact is Prophet Moses (as) promised many times before that he would in no way object.
Verse 78.
"He said, 'This is where you and I part company. I will let you know the explanation of those things about which you were not able to restrain yourself." Notice that he can not show any patience.
Verse 79.
"As for the boat, it belonged to some poor people who worked on the sea." Notice that the verse starts with boat. 79 and the boat. It starts with it first. The second word is "sea". There is ra eference to the explosion of the ship that occurred in 1979. "I wanted to damage it", that is to say, in order to conceal it the methods of Hazrat Khidir are employed. Showing something damaged, flawed and erroneous are among the methods of Hazrat Khidir (as). "I wanted to damage it because a king was coming behind them, commandeering every boat." What do the communist states do? They confiscate everything. "There was a king commandeering every boat." That is to say, dictatorship. Attention to that aspect of communism is drawn here- in communism, the state confiscates the possessions of the people. 1979 was the time when communism was most prevalent. It was the most rampant time of communism. Almost 20 people were killed a day.
Verse 80
" As for the boy, his parents were believers and we feared that he would darken their days with excessive insolence and disbelief." If he deems to be dangerous for future, Hazrat Khidir (as) can kill a person if he wishes. This happens by the Ilm al-Ladun.
Verse 81
"We wanted their Lord to give them in exchange a purer son than him, one more compassionate." There is also reference to the system of Mahdi here.
Verse 82
" As for the wall, it belonged to two young orphans in the town," This is a reference to the wall of the Prophet Solomon in Israel. You know today it is used as the Wailing Wall. The city, on the other hand, refers to Jerusalem, insha'Allah. The two orphans are Hazrat Mahdi (as) and Prophet Jesus (as), for both are them are orphans. They both have no parents. One of them is absent because he died and the other has no father because he was created without a father. "...and there was a treasure underneath it, belonging to them. " Maybe Allah draws attention here to the location of Prophet Moses's (as) ark. May be the ark remains somewhere under that wall. To whom does it belong? The Ark of the Covenant belongs to Hazrat Mahdi (as) and Prophet Jesus (as). In their time an important treasure will be uncovered. This treasure is important and there is a reference to the Ark of Covenant.
"Their father was one of the righteous." It is stated in the verse that Prophet Abraham (as) was a righteous person. "...your Lord wanted them to come of age and then to unearth their treasure as a mercy from Him.;" That treasure will be unearthed when its time will be due. "...as a mercy from Him."Almighty Allah says that this happens by the will of Allah. "I did not do it of my own volition. That is the explanation of the things about which you were not able to restrain yourself.'

"We are so happy with how our wedding invitations turned out! I can't believe how much we love them. The colors are vibrant and elegant and are perfect for our Dallas rooftop wedding. I give this product 5 stars for sure and nothing less."
"We just received our invitations and they are beautiful. The actual invites look even better in person. We loved the purple color, but chose the oranges to fit into our fall winery theme, which it did perfectly. The cards are beautiful and we are so happy with our choice!"
"I could not be more happy with how these invitations turned out. I paid the small upcharge for the pearl paper and was nervous that it would feel flimsy, but they are seriously perfect. There are plenty of aspects of planning this wedding that have been complicated, but the this was not one of them. The ONLY caveat was that you can't rearrange any of the text boxes on your own for spacing and have to work with a designer, however, they got back with me very quickly and it was a painless process. Even if our cruise ship wedding sinks in Alaska, I will have had FABULOUS invitations."
"Simple, tasteful design that can be customized easily. I used the signature card stock and it turned out great. Feedback on the product from reviewer was quick and efficient; delivery was even a week earlier than expected!"
"The item came exactly as described - the paper was excellent quality (even textured) and there were zero mistakes with the printing. Shipped in the time frame expected. Overall, very satisfying product."

DETROIT - Detroit now has its first distillery since prohibition.
So, who invests everything into a derelict building to create a modern craft distillery in a town that's declared Chapter 9 bankruptcy?
Peter Bailey, that's who.
Bailey and his partner could have opened Two James distillery anywhere, but they chose to invest here, in Detroit.
Two James is located in Corktown and it's the first licensed distillery in Detroit since Prohibition.
"Detroit was ideal for us from the get go when we were contemplating a lot of places to go. One, because we knew it had a manufacturing base and here we are with Light Manufacturing. Two, the state, with its very big hand in agriculture offers us great feed stock for our operations and the people here have always been incredibly optimistic and friendly, creative, industrious and that's why we do it," said Baily. "I've lived a lot of places and the people here are what make this town."
Baily has succeeded in resurrecting the Grass Widow Bourbon name, a name not seen here since before prohibition. The distillery also boasts hand crafted vodka, gin, bourbon, and malt whiskey.
Bailey says he'd like the president to know there are things that would help put this town back on its feet and bring business back in a big way.
"Investment in infrastructure, there is every indication Detroit is suffering in that regards, partial because it's an urban planning issue, obviously it's a dynamic issue and there is no panacea," he said.
Two James is located on 2445 Michigan Avenue.

Hello fellow admins! I wanted to being up a few issues that I can't stop scratching my head about :P It is mostly regarding a few banned users and what we should do with them. I'll divide this topic into 3 sections to make the discussion easier to follow. Technology Wizard · talk
So I just wanted to make it clear that we are all "alright" with this user being banned. My question is: Should we lower the ban, leave the ban, or higher the ban? If you think we should do one of these, then simply place a:
- Lower the ban: I know you all might be in shock that I decided this, but I think his ban was a little too long. I mean yes he fought with another user, but we all do and 6 months is a long time in my opinion. I would propose reducing it about 1-3 months. If all he did was have a fight with a user, I think we should have some justice here. Technology Wizard · talk
- Leave the Ban: He went psycho on everyone and insulted our admins and users, Plus he said he wasn't coming back, the ban should stay 100%. He also went and insulted our wiki afterwards, he really needs to stay banned. --Bullet Francisco (talk) 23:04, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
- Keep the ban: He went ballistic. – Jäzzi 23:07, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
- Leave the Ban: He personally attacked a user, end of my part of this discussion. Crimsnnavy C S 23:15, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
Jello Rabbit
I believe we have talked about this before, but since we are talking about banned users, why not talk about it again? I think that this user is very useful to our community and should have his ban lowered. I mean he technically didn't do anything. He was told something and just didn't speak about it with us, which was wrong. But banning him for that long was not needed in my opinion and again I ask to leave reason with a vote. Technology Wizard · talk
- Lower the ban: For my reasons stated above and because he is friendly. I think we should remove the ban and disable him from being granted user rights (at least for a year). Technology Wizard · talk
- Leave the Ban for now: He's getting pushy about being unbanned, keep him banned for now. --Bullet Francisco (talk) 23:04, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
- Keep the ban: Six months are almost up either way. And he's been getting insanely pushy about it. He can wait. – Jäzzi 23:07, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
- Leave the Ban: ^Ditto. Crimsnnavy C S 23:15, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
Arceus The God of Pokemon
I know this is a tough topic, but it has to be done. I have read everything about his sockpuppetry and what not, so I know what his situation was. I think that we should leave him as banned, but I don't think his userpage and talk page should be deleted. I mean I have never heard of a practice where you delete someone's userpage just because they are perma-banned. I mean if his was deleted, then why wasn't this one deleted? I also have considered recommending reducing the ban to 2 years. It's not like he will be back then anyway, in my opinion. Technology Wizard · talk
- Slightly reduce the ban and keep the userpage: For reasons sated above. Technology Wizard · talk
- Keep Ban: He does NOT deserve to come back, obviously, you don't know exactly what he did, he insulted us, sockpuppeted, and threatened us and more. He needs to stay banned. Sockpuppets get banned forever, also, so he should be banned for good. --Bullet Francisco (talk) 23:04, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
- Keep the ban: Sockpuppets get block infinitely, and I was going to get to the other infinite deletions, but I needed a nap. – Jäzzi 23:07, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
- Leave the Ban: ^Ditto, again. Also, I have seen on other wikis that deletion if the user page of a perma-banned user is common practice, sometimes they don't if they aren't a serious offender, if we deleted Gokan20's user page, we would have to delete all of his sockpuppet user pages. Crimsnnavy C S 23:15, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
- Comment: Can we at least leave his userpage? I know this may sound weird, but I don't like deleting userpages, blocked or not. It isn't mine to mess with and should just be left alone, untouched. You have to look at it from every angle, not just the way you prefer. I don't mind if he is perma blocked, but I mind that his userpage is deleted. Technology Wizard · talk
- Comment: Just leave all of the bans the same, we haven't discussed them for a while and we're all agreed that they should remain the same and unchanged. -- Hstar (Talk)

Design professionals need to be cognizant of not only the impact of the products they specify on air quality, but also how monitoring carbon dioxide (CO2) levels can be helpful in controlling indoor air quality. Until recently, however, the practice was discouraged by the cost of the sensors and the efforts required to install, monitor, and calibrate them.
Today, CO2 monitoring is growing. With the advent of LEED, the increase in digital controls in buildings, and the wider availability of the sensors, CO2 monitoring is becoming standard practice. In part, this is because…

Before my daughter was born, my parents and I opened a retail store selling interior goods and furnishings as well as a kitchen and bath design center.

With the Leveson report into the UK press published, the tectonic plates are shifting inside Rupert Murdoch's empire, with a series of interlocking reshuffles underway. The outsider remains Elisabeth Murdoch.
The restructuring, in which Robert Thomson is to become chief executive of the new News Corp publishing company, with Gerard Baker succeeding him as editor-in-chief of the Wall Street Journal, is already causing ructions. Tom Mockridge has resigned as chief executive of News International, the UK publishing arm.
All this coincides with a lengthy profile in The New Yorker of Elisabeth Murdoch, Mr Murdoch's daughter by his second marriage, who fell out with her brother James over the phone hacking affair. In Ken Auletta's article, News Corp resembles Dombey and Son, the Charles Dickens novel. Read more

Clairton's Boyd nears WPIAL's career touchdown mark
Tyler Boyd has always been adamant about his commitment to Clairton's team success despite the gaudy individual numbers he has put up over the last two seasons.
That being said, it's hard to begrudge him a little bit of selfishness as he and the Bears prepare to play District 5 champion Berlin-Brothersvalley (11-1) at 7 p.m. Friday at Golden Eagles Stadium in Somerset in the PIAA Class A quarterfinals.
With one touchdown the senior running back who Rivals.com lists as a four-star receiving recruit, the No. 5 prospect in Pennsylvania and No. 154 ranked player in the country, will tie former Hopewell standout and Pitt freshman Rushel Shell for the WPIAL all-time record with 110 career touchdowns.
"In one way it is for me, but in one way it ain't, because I didn't get it by myself. And my team, the fullback and everything, is helping me do what I got to do," Boyd said. "It's a great feeling for me to be about to break Rushel Shell's record because he's probably one of the greatest WPIAL players to ever play. That's huge for me."
Shell may be racking up some solid numbers at Pitt this year — he has 530 yards and four touchdowns while splitting time with Ray Graham — but he has certainly paid attention to what Boyd has been doing and how close he is to shattering that milestone.
Then again, Shell only played in 44 games in his high school career. Because Clairton has won 60 consecutive games, played in four consecutive state finals and won the last five WPIAL Class A titles, Boyd will have a chance to set the standard in his 62nd game with the Bears.
"Records are meant to be broken," Shell said. "He's a great player. One of the best I've seen."
Shell and Boyd talked at length Nov. 16 when Boyd made an official recruiting visit to Pitt. And, of course, the topic of the record did come up.
"He was (coaxing) me to 'just beat the record, bro,' " Boyd said. "Coming into high school, I looked up to him a little bit as a football player. I think if I wasn't around (the record) it would still be there."
Of course, Shell does have a few records that could stand the test of time. He is the one of the few WPIAL running backs to have at least 1,000 yards rushing all four years and his state-record 9,078 yards are 1,432 more than anyone in District 7 history. Even Boyd, with his 2,400 yards in 2011 and 2,123 this season, won't come close to eclipsing that mark.
Boyd will head into the game against the Mountaineers as the No. 9 rusher in WPIAL history with 5,302 yards and will likely vault past Charleroi's Darrell Harding (5,410) and Chico Williams of Aliquippa (5,417) before the end of the night. It would take an immense effort to move up to No. 6 and pass Montour's Julian Durden (5,582), but he has the capability after a jaw-dropping 288-yard rushing performance in the WPIAL Class A quarterfinals against Brentwood.
He needs to average 232.7 yards in the next three games to become the fifth player in WPIAL history and the 24th in the state with 6,000 in his career.
"It's huge and first of all, it's about the linemen," Boyd said. "We may not have the (biggest guys), but they ride for me, and they are going to do what they've got to do so I can get what I can get. They're going to ride for me, and it doesn't matter if they've got to block 300-pound dudes or whatever, I'm going to get some."

Comments from industry members are critical in determining the specifics of the Food and Drug Administration's final version of the produce safety rule, Produce Marketing Association leaders said in a Jan. 17 Web seminar.
Newark, Del.-based PMA chief science and technology officer Bob Whitaker and the group's representative in Washington D.C., Tom O'Brien, provided an overview of the FDA's proposed Food Safety Modernization Act rules on produce safety and food facilities. The presentation is free on the PMA website.
More than 500 participants from 15 countries participated in the web seminars, according to Meg Miller, director of public relations for PMA.
Topics addressed in the produce safety rule presentation included who the rule applies to, what the produce rule covers, whether the produce rule and preventive controls rules are commodity specific, recording keeping requirements, and other standards for personnel, agricultural water and soil amendments.
O'Brien said industry input in the proposed rule stage is incredibly important as the rule moves from the proposed stage to final.
Questions such as what produce is covered and the definition of a farm, for example, are critical to how the rule is implemented, he said. "Ultimately, we go from an academic exercise to ultimately implementing them," he said.
Whitaker said the FDA needs industry input to get the rule right and he invited industry members to both send their comments to the PMA and the FDA.
Some questions focused on imports; a separate rule on foreign farms will come through soon, O'Brien said. That rule will probably means foreign farms will have to be certified by a third party, but the coming proposed rule will clarify that, he said.
Whitaker said the rule made it clear the rules apply to both U.S. and foreign producers who sell to the U.S., though details are still not clear until the FDA issues the rule on imports.
Responding to a question about the value of current food safety audits, Whitaker said growers will benefit from having put in place food safety requirements.
"You might have some tweaking, but you will be pretty far along the way to becoming compliant (to the produce safety rule)," he said.
One question focused on the FDA not requiring a written food safety plan but having requirements related to the water, health and hygiene and other standards. Whitaker said the FDA likely didn't require a written food safety plan because it didn't want to make the produce rule too burdensome.
More detailed questions about water requirements will be addressed and answered on PMA's website, said Kathy Means, vice president of government relations.
Regarding a question about how traceability is addressed in the produce rule, Whitaker said the FDA is expected to issue a report on traceability pilot projects this summer that will guide them in developing additional record-keeping rules.
Regarding enforcement of the produce safety rule, Whitaker said it will take time for inspectors to gain knowledge of the industry.
"FDA is spending a lot of time and a lot of thought in working up the training program," he said.
During a Q&A session about the food facilities rule, a question from the audience asked about where the definition of a farm ends and the food facility begins.
"If it is simply packing fruits or vegetables from their farm, then it should still be a farm," O'Brien said.
On Jan. 24, FDA officials are scheduled to join Whitaker for two additional PMA Web seminars, featuring the FDA's Samir Assar in a review of the produce safety rule and the agency's Jenny Scott in a review of the preventive controls rule.

(written from a Production point of view)
Star Trek: The Lost Era started as a six part series of novels published by Pocket Books. Since that initial release, several more novels have been released as "tales [or sagas] of The Lost Era."
The "Lost Era" was originally defined as the period of history between the apparent death of James T. Kirk aboard the Enterprise-B in 2293 and the launch of the USS Enterprise-D in 2363. However, the Star Trek: Terok Nor miniseries extends past that point, to just prior to the events of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine in 2369.
Novels Edit
- The Sundered, featuring Hikaru Sulu on the Excelsior, 2298.
- Serpents Among the Ruins, featuring Enterprise-B and the Tomed Incident, 2311.
- The Art of the Impossible, covering the Betreka Nebula Incident, 2328–2346.
- Well of Souls, featuring Rachel Garrett and the Enterprise-C, 2336.
- Deny Thy Father, featuring William T. Riker on the USS Pegasus, 2355–2357.
- Catalyst of Sorrows, featuring Nyota Uhura, Beverly Crusher, Benjamin Sisko, and Tuvok, 2360.
- One Constant Star, featuring the Enterprise-B, 2303–2319.
- A planned but unreleased work would have featured Sisko on the USS Okinawa during the Tzenkethi War in the 2360s.
"Tales of The Lost Era" Edit
- The Buried Age, featuring Picard between the loss of the USS Stargazer and the launch of the USS Enterprise-D, 2355–2363
- Star Trek: Terok Nor, a miniseries covering the Cardassian Occupation of Bajor, 2318–2369

- Recalls
- Book Returns
- Renew Books
- Fines
- Lost Books

- Copyright Guidelines for CUNY Libraries
Loan Periods
Loan periods are three weeks for undergraduate students. All books are due on the date that is stamped on a slip in the back of each book.
Loan periods are six weeks for graduate students and faculty with a maximum of three renewals (if the material is not recalled).
Borrowing Regulations
The Library stacks are open to all students and faculty. Books in the collection are listed by keyword, author, title, and subject in the CUNY+ electronic catalog.
Books may be borrowed at the Circulation Desk on the main floor. A Lehman College identification card validated for the current semester must be presented to borrow any Library materials. Because the Library uses an automated circulation system in which all transactions are registered against a bar-encoded label, all borrowers must be registered.
If the borrower's identification card or any book to be borrowed does not contain a bar-coded label (on the inside back cover), bring it to the Circulation Desk registration station (closest to the elevators).
Books may be recalled after two weeks for all borrowers. When returned, all recalled books are held at the Circulation Desk for five (5) business days and a notice is sent to the requesting borrower. Books requested by the faculty for Reserve use will be recalled immediately.
Book Returns
Books should be returned directly to the Circulation Desk when the Library is open. When the Circulation Desk or the Library is closed the book return slot to the right of the main entrance outside the Library should be used. Remember that just leaving books on the Circulation Desk counter or re-shelving them will not clear your record. All returned books must be checked in by the Circulation Desk staff.
Renew Books
Books not needed by other borrowers and not overdue may be renewed for the original loan period. Circulation now accepts book renewals online. Renewals are not permitted by telephone or mail.
Online Renewals
You may renew your materials online through the MY ACCOUNT feature of CUNY+, CUNY's online catalog. Just click on the MY ACCOUNT link on this page, or click on the MY ACCOUNT tab once you have entered CUNY+.
- You must have your Library barcode available.
- First time users, your Barcode and your password is your 14 digit library barcode located on your ID card. Please note you may follow the instruction on the MY ACCOUNT screen about how to change your password.
- After you are in MY ACCOUNT: 1. Click on Loans. 2. Click on the line # of the item you wish to renew. 3. Click on renew.
- The changed due date will show on the screen. No further confirmation message is given.
All materials borrowed from the Library are the responsibility of the borrower. Fine schedules are established by the Board of Trustees to ensure compliance with circulation regulations and to keep materials available for the greatest number of users. Overdue books are fined 25 cents per day, per book. Books overdue 30 days will automatically be set at the maximum fine. Borrowing privileges are suspended to any student with outstanding fines or overdue books. Overdue and bill notices are sent to borrowers solely as a courtesy.
If the fines are not paid or delinquent books are not returned, registration will be blocked and transcript records will not be released. Also, Library borrowing privileges will be suspended at all CUNY campuses.
Lost Books
Books that are reported lost must be paid for at the current price, plus a processing fee.
Photocopy machines are located throughout the Library on all the floors. Four machines are on the main floor to the right of the main entrance, three machines are on the lower level (two in the hallway and one in the east alcove of periodicals), and there is one machine in each alcove behind the elevator bank on the second and third floor. Copies are 10 cents each and vend-a-cards may be used instead of coins.
There are two change machines in the Library and they give change of one dollar bills only in dimes. One is located on the lower level in Periodicals by the service counter and the other is located on the main floor near the Reference Desk.
Vend-A-Card dispenser is located opposite the circulation desk on the main floor. Follow the instructions on how to use the dispenser, which are posted above the machine. When you insert one dollar ($1) you first get a card with only seven copies at 8 cents a copy, but for every additional dollar you put on the card you get twelve copies per dollar. When you have used up the number of copies on the card you may reinsert your card into the vend-a-card dispenser and add money for more copy value to your card. The copy cards are usable on all the photocopy, microfilm, microfiche, and other machines in the Library.
Students with Disabilities
An Access and Technology Center is located in the Library on the second floor in Room 215. Programs available include Jaws 6.10, ZoomText 9.0, Dragon Naturally Speaking 8.1, Read and Write 4, SPSS for Windows 11.5, etc. A Kurzweil Reader is also available.
Students with special needs should contact the Office of Student Disability Services to arrange for assistance in using the Library. The Office is located in Shuster Hall, Room 238.

Teheran drops duel with Dodgers' Kershaw
Braves righty goes distance, but LA ace is one run better
LOS ANGELES -- When the Braves flew across country from Atlanta on Monday, they knew they were entering their most daunting stretch of the season. But while spending the next couple of weeks playing a number of legit postseason contenders, they might not find life to be as rough as it was the past two days at Dodger Stadium.
After being dominated by Zack Greinke on Wednesday night, the Braves returned on Thursday with the hope that Julio Teheran would outduel Clayton Kershaw. But it did not take Teheran long to see that even one of his most impressive outings would not be enough against Kershaw, who went the distance in a 2-1 win that secured a three-game sweep for the Dodgers.
"You had two of the best arms in the big leagues going against each other," Braves third baseman Chris Johnson said."You knew one of them was going to come out on that other side. It stinks for us that it was Julio. But you've got to tip your cap to him. It's Clayton Kershaw."
Kershaw was one out away from matching the Major League lead with his third shutout. But his masterpiece was not much better than the tough-luck gem produced by Teheran, who surrendered just five hits and a pair of runs while also notching a complete game. The 23-year-old Braves hurler allowed each of the first three hitters he faced to reach safely. He then retired 23 of the last 27 batters he faced.
"It was fun," Teheran said. "It wasn't that easy to face [Kershaw]. I felt like I had a real battle out there. I was doing my best to win that battle."
Unfortunately for Teheran, his degree of difficulty was enhanced by the presence of Yasiel Puig, who has batted .511 with a 1.395 OPS in the 11 games against the Braves dating back to last year, including the postseason. Puig drew a first-inning walk and scored from first base on Adrian Gonzalez's double. He added further damage with a third-inning solo shot that proved decisive for the Dodgers, who have won five straight against the Braves dating back to last year's National League Division Series.
"They're nice wins for us," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said. "They've got a good club, a club we played in the playoffs last year, and these games could go either way. So, obviously, they're good games for us to win."
The Braves lost an ugly series opener on Tuesday and then simply were outdone in the two pitchers' duels that capped this three-game set. Teheran and Alex Wood showed the poise of veterans as they limited the Dodgers to four runs in the 15 innings they combined to complete Wednesday and Thursday. Unfortunately, they were going up against Greinke and Kershaw, who combined to allow two runs in the 17 innings they worked.
"It's Greinke and Kershaw," Johnson said. "When they throw like that, you're going to lose, I don't care what team you are."
Kershaw's shutout bid ended when Justin Upton's hustle turned a two-out grounder to third base in the ninth inning into a game-extending RBI single that was was allowed to stand after a replay review. The Dodgers southpaw then quickly composed himself and finished the game by getting Evan Gattis to ground into a fielder's choice at second base.
Despite allowing nine hits, Kershaw limited his damage to one run and maintained the Major League's best ERA (1.71). This effort earned him his first regular season win against the Braves, the only NL team against which he had never previously notched a win.
Kershaw benefited from three double plays and B.J. Upton sliding over the second base bag during a stolen base attempt in the fourth inning. The Braves began the fifth with consecutive singles, but Andrelton Simmons then grounded into the first of his two double plays. As Kershaw was pitching around the trouble he encountered, Teheran was completing his own impressive outing against a potent lineup that had rocked him when he had last stood on this mound in Game 3 of the NLDS. Between Puig's third-inning homer and eighth-inning double, Teheran retired 16 of the 17 batters he faced.
"Julio was really, really good," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said."That's two nights in a row that our starters have given us terrific outings. If you only give up two runs, you've got a real good chance to win ballgames. We didn't the last couple. But it was a really, really solid outing by Julio tonight and Woody [on Wednesday]."

text: Well, isn't that funny? A greatest-hits collection from a band with no hits. If Dexys Midnight Runners can have a best-of album, then anyone can, but that still doesn't make this collection of previously released songs from Danish epic-rock outfit Mew any less perplexing. Before even putting Eggs Are Funny on, the questions start flying: Is this some sort of contractual obligation? Isn't it safe to assume that everyone who wants these songs already has them in one form or another? But once the hand-wringing is over, the triumphant, otherworldly pop kicks in, with Jonas Bjerre singing sweetly and strangely along with driving guitar, huge hooks, and some of the oddest twists and turns yet heard from a band that ultimately wants you to sing and dance along. It's difficult to think of another group that's this committed to pop songcraft, and yet that colors so far outside the lines with its music, creating a sound that really is the band's alone. Yet even its mastery of indie-prog can't keep Eggs Are Funny from feeling a little off: Tracks from all five of Mew's albums are included here, but somehow And The Glass Handed Kites—arguably a best-of disc in and of itself—only has two representatives ("Special" and "The Zookeeper's Boy"), which completely ignores the fact that the equally magical "Why Are You Looking Grave?" and "Apocalypso" were also released as singles back in the day. One new song, "Do You Love It?" is serviceable, but only reminds fans that the jarring aspects of Mew are just as important as the melodic ones.

Ballot Summary
This proposed amendment provides that public funds may not be expended for any abortion or for health-benefits coverage that includes coverage of abortion. This prohibition does not apply to an expenditure required by federal law, a case in which a woman suffers from a physical disorder, physical injury, or physical illness that would place her in danger of death unless an abortion is performed, or a case of rape or incest.
This proposed amendment provides that the State Constitution may not be interpreted to create broader rights to an abortion than those contained in the United States Constitution. With respect to abortion, this proposed amendment overrules court decisions which conclude that the right of privacy under Article I, Section 23 of the State Constitution is broader in scope than that of the United States Constitution.
Proposes an amendment to prohibit public dollars from funding abortions. This would prohibit the State Constitution from being interpreted to create broader rights than those contained in the U.S. Constitution. Exempts federal law requirements, physician-certified physical danger to the mother and instances of rape or incest.
The group Citizens for Protecting Taxpayers and Parental Rights has come out in support of the amendment. Randy Armstrong, president of the group, says because abortion can have lasting effects, parents should have the right to be a part of the decision.
Vote No on 6 was formed to oppose the amendment. Campaign manager Judith Selzer points out that if passed, Amendment 6 would allow politicians to interfere with a woman's right to make decisions about her own reproductive health.
"Every woman deserves to make her own personal decisions based on her values and her doctor's advice without politicians interfering," Selzer says.

Egon and Dnci are two lonely inhabitants on a distant solar-system's tiny planetary. Egon is an amateur "space-exploratory" trying to seem very moderate, but his deeds are dogged by constant ill fortune cased mostly by his fumbler cat, Dnci. The film puts on the two figures' comic conflicts, vicissitudes, as they get into all kinds of staggering adventures while exploring the sensible existence far away from earth. They live through every situation in a peculiar way. Egon and Dnci never talk. They communicate with each other and with the viewer in the most simple way - with childlike mimicry, one syllable sounds, gestures - therefore they are not bantered to any determined language. In this way they are understood by the youngest age-group as well as the elder on any part of the Earth. Last, but not least the film's aim is to familiarize the viewer with the planets of our solar-system, the main curiosities of the outer space, it's characteristics and regularities with the intention to educate.

Dirt The Movie 2009 DVDRip XviD-aAFINFO : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1243971/IMDB Rating: 6.4/10 29 votesSize: 721 MB
A look at man's relationship with Dirt. Dirt and humans couldn't be closer. We started our journey together as stardust, swirled by cosmic forces into our galaxy, solar system, and planet. We are made of the same stuff. Four billion years of evolution created dirt as the living source of all life on Earth including humans. Dirt has given us food, shelter, fuel, medicine, ceramics, flowers, cosmetics and color –everything needed for our survival. For most of the last ten thousand years we humans understood our intimate bond with dirt and the rest of nature. We took care of the soils that took care of us. But, over time, we lost that connection. Our species became greedy and careless. We still depend on dirt, but now we abuse and ignore it. We are destroying our last natural resource with our agriculture, our mining, and our paving over the planet for cities. We turned dirt into something "dirty." In doing so, we transform the skin of the earth into a hellish and dangerous landscape for all life on earth. A millennial shift in consciousness about the environment offers a beacon of hope - and practical solutions. Around the globe, pioneers are coming together to save earth's last natural resource. Tiny villages rise up to battle giant corporations slaughtering their land. Scientists discover connections with soil that can balance global warming. Generation X brands organic farming as trendy and children begin to eat from edible school yards. Inmates find inner peace and job skills in a prison horticulture program. Medical researchers explore dirt's capacity to provide solutions to such devastating health crises as AIDS. Major religions are rediscovering the reverence for the natural world that unites them all.

My Name Describes...Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.
My name describes the retention of heat,
I am a current problem all over the world.
If everyone stopped using the fuels from the fossils,
Then the planet may not go to the underworld.
The icy ends become merciless water,
Flooding the low bits of sand.
Temperatures rising day after day,
Desperation is in all the lands.
HintI'll stop if you stop driving the car,
And if the whole world did too.
And while I'm here - listen close,
The word pollution is a clue.
AnswerGlobal warming.
Global warming retains heat by trapping carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere, which is called the greenhouse effect. It is a huge problem caused by the nonrenewable energy we use, fossil fuels (gas, oil, coal). This causes the polar caps to melt, meaning that the water levels will rise and flood low lying islands. Temperatures will rise and it will have dire consequences on the planet. Pollution is also a big part of global warming. Polluting the atmosphere by driving your car contributes to greenhouse gas emissions.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 9/9/2013 (1443 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
For 27 years, the PBS series American Masters has presented documentary profiles of artists and entertainers, cultural icons and institutions. To date, more than 190 films have been produced under the American Masters title.
This week, for the first time, the series adds a sports figure to its roster. And fittingly, the subject is an athlete whose accomplishments far transcend the sport in which she gained fame and amassed a fortune.
Billie Jean King, which airs tonight at 7 p.m. on Prairie Public TV, is a fascinating 90-minute documentary that examines the career and life of a woman who recognized at a very young age that success as an athlete would provide an opportunity to be a catalyst for cultural change.
The winner of 39 Grand Slam tennis titles, the co-founder of the Virginia Slims Series tour (a precursor to the current WTA tour), the first female pro athlete to earn more than $100,000 in a year and a tireless supporter of both women's rights and gay rights initiatives, King is -- for better and worse -- probably best remembered by most as the female tennis pro who took on self-proclaimed male chauvinist pig Bobby Riggs in the 1973 exhibition match dubbed "The Battle of the Sexes."
When she met with TV critics recently during PBS's portion of the U.S. networks' semi-annual press tour in Los Angeles, King said the relentlessly hyped tennis showdown -- largely the product of Riggs having created a second career for himself as a feminism buster long after his best tennis-playing years were behind him -- was a match she had tried to avoid playing for at least a couple of years.
"I definitely did not want to play Bobby," she recalled. "He followed me around for two or three years, but when he played Margaret (Court) and she lost badly, I had to play him. I was worried about Title IX (U.S. equal-rights legislation). I was worried about our tour. I was worried about a lot of things, and I was worried about perception, and I had to play him. I just didn't have a choice."
The match was preceded by weeks of heavy promotion in which Riggs was shown clowning around and poking fun at female athletes and the women's rights movement. For King, who went into seclusion and trained fiercely, there was nothing amusing about the contest.
"It was not fun," she said. "Maybe for (people) watching, but not for me playing or Bobby playing. It was not fun. I knew the implications. I knew what it stood for. I knew that it was very symbolic of the women's movement and what we were trying to do... I mean, women, men were talking, betting.
"If you just really analyze the times, you knew this was a moment where we could help to move forward understanding each other and bringing us together, for women to have more pride, for men maybe to think differently... It was huge, and what it was about was about equality. It was about change."
The documentary includes comments of several who watched the King-Riggs match, including Hillary Clinton, Elton John, Gloria Steinem and many of King's contemporaries on the women's tennis scene.
Despite its high-profile nature, of course, the straight-sets rout of Riggs is really only a minor moment in King's extraordinary life. Her accomplishments as a crusader for equal pay for women, her place in the battle for women's rights and, later, gay rights, and her commitment to creating opportunities for sports and fitness for children are also explored in extensive detail.
King, who will turn 70 in November, received the Presidential Medal of Freedom -- the U.S.'s highest civilian honour -- in 2009. Three years earlier, in 2006, the headquarters of U.S. tennis in Flushing Meadows, N.Y., was rededicated to become USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center.
An athlete as an American Masters subject? In this case, the title seems a perfect fit.

The Theatre of Small Convenience in Edith Walk, Great Malvern, has been awarded a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence 2014 after returning 25 excellent visitor ratings out of 31 reviews.
Situated in an old Victorian gentleman's lavatory, the theatre seems to be a place where mystery and magic brews for the users of the world's largest travel site which offers the chance for millions of travellers to share advice, tips and reviews.
Dennis Neale, who founded the theatre in November 1999, said: "It's quite an accolade and I have not had a certificate for a long time. It's been wonderful that people have helped us. If the shows are not successful the theatre would go."
He added: "We have become a tourist attraction which is a weird thing for a community project to become. I make these surreal shows and it keeps us going."
Mr Neale says he hopes to be able to make some investment in the theatre and its productions after reducing the cost of his insurance this year.
"It could mean I might be able to afford more. I might have some more money for a bit more experimentation."
The Theatre of Small Convenience, which entered the Guinness Book of Records as the smallest theatre in the world in 2002, is currently staging Tempuss within its quaint interior.
Mr Neale says the "slightly surreal" six-minute puppet show with no words is suitable for people aged three to 103 and it runs from 1pm to 5pm every Saturday with shows performed on demand.
It also open from Wednesday to Saturday during the school holidays and at bank holidays.
Entry is £3 for adults and £1 for children.

Did you know?
Klerksdorp is considered to be the oldest settlement of the former Transvaal province.
Thorny acacias, chalk pans and 1 000ha of grassland provide travellers – and bird lovers in particular – with a taste of the bushveld less than 200km from Johannesburg.
Often described as a destination for the serious birder, the Faan Meintjies Nature Reserve offers easy access to flora and fauna along two loop roads. Depending on how much time you have, opt for the 14km or 28km loop along well-maintained gravel roads which take you to the extremities of the reserve.
Entry tickets have a convenient bird checklist printed on the rear, so set your binoculars for the Gabar goshawk, chestnut-backed finchlark, melodious lark, fiscal flycatcher, chestnut-vented tit-babbler, violet-eared waxbill, malachite sunbird, mountain wheatear, and Kalahari robin during the day.
Venture further into this nature reserve for about 2km to a disused quarry where you'll find the African pipit, long-billed pipit, buffy pipit, Cape longclaw, chestnut-backed sparrowlark and grey-backed sparrowlark.
Three seasonal dams provide ideal habitat for summer species such as the African spoonbill, maccoa duck, South African shelduck and little grebe. Watch the small scrub alongside for signs of the scaly feathered finch.
The grasslands attract many different species of quail, cisticola and courser. And the hard-to-miss secretary bird will be seen striding around in typical fashion.
After sunset, keep a trained ear open for the spotted eagle owl, barn owl, and rufous-cheeked nightjar, and an eye open for the telltale eye reflection of nocturnal wildlife.
Visitors' comfort has been taken into account with picnic and camping sites provided for day trippers, or the caravan park is a good place to set up home for a few days of birding to spot the brubru, bokmakierie, red-throated wryneck, shrike and honeyguide, along with the ant-eating chat and familiar chat, both of which are relatively tame, allowing for ideal photographic opportunities.
Birds aside, Faan Meintjies Nature Reserve is also home to more than 30 wildlife species including giraffe, impala and zebra.

"Connecting the Dots - Hand-built Ceramics, Design and Construction"
Lisa Pedolsky, ceramic artist
April 6-7, 2013
On April 6-7, Lisa Pedolsky (Two Fish Studio, Durango, CO) will teach a two-day, hands-on workshop in the Plinth Gallery studio space.

Participants will be guided through the process from initial drawings to pattern design using paper and roofing felt, to assembling components. Surface treatment, including the use of slip, sgraffito, appliqué, and unconventional tools to achieve visual and tactile depth will be demonstrated. Technical and aesthetic aspects will be considered while exploring forms including boxes, bowls, platters, teapots and cups. Participants will leave the workshop feeling competent in a number of forming methods. All levels welcome.
Workshop Fee: $250.00 which includes most materials and lunch both days. One graduate credit is available through Adams State College. For more information and to register, email Plinth Gallery or call us at 303-295-0717. This workshop will fill early!

Topic: Teddy's Visit to the Radiologist Today
Fairly good news:
The area that lit up on the PET Scan was too fuzzy and small to make an
affirmative diagnosis.
Teddy is going to the Oncologist Nov 6th. We will see what the newest CA
count is and see if it is climbing further. He will then get a PET Scan just
before Xmas. Also a needle biopsy to make sure it is in fact the return of
the CC. We know something is brewing. The most important thing is hearing
the words, "then we can do Cyber Knife again". Music to our ears. So we have
just bought T a 2 month reprieve with the knowledge that it looks like it
can be fixed once again. Doesn't get any better than that.
So, I will try to get in at the same time with the ONC because T is dying to
ask him if he gives 2 for 1 visits!!!!
It will now be a much nicer Thanksgiving and Xmas!!! Breathing a little easier tonight.

Topic: Clinical Trials
Hi...My name is Laura and I am new here. I am writing today requesting to hear some positive stories about member participation in clinical trials.
I myself have been invited to participate in a phase 1 trial--I don't know all the details yet, just that it involves examining my blood and tumour samples for genetic markers that will allow me to be more closely matched to a trial drug to fight my cc.
I guess I am looking to hear some real life stories of participation in trials--including what exactly is involved--for example, my dr indicated it required more visits to the hospital to stay on top of progress. I have been feeling really kind of down in the dumps lately and would love to hear any positive stories you feel like sharing where trials are concerned.
Thanks in advance, Laura

Italic peoples are the speakers of the Italic (or Romance) languages & we also have the Germanic & Celtic peoples.
When was the last time you read in any newspaper something like "a Romance man..." or "the Germanics from the countryside..."? Western newspapers often use term Slavs when not being specific of their nationality.
Sobekhotep wrote:Delodephius wrote:Some Slavic speakers even resent being called Slavs because they, rightfully, consider it misleading.
Who? Bulgarians? Because of the Turkic Bulgar substrate?
Most South Slavs. Since they are mostly descendants of the pre-Slavic inhabitants of the Balkans that adopted Slavic languages they resent being grouped together with people from West and East Slavic group who are very different from them. Pan-Slavists always try to look for similarities between Slavs, but they fail to see the canyon in between.

Oh well, get over it fan boys.
The occupy losers?! Seriously?!?!? Those idiots are nearly as bad as the moron earth-worshipers who burned down the hummer dealership, thereby creating far worse emissions than all the trucks would have. Now we want to celebrate the hypocrites that use everything offered by wall street companies in their daily lives while protesting them? So silly.
Why give a guy a tribute just because he died?
The iPhone/iPod/iPad was not invented in 2011.
He brought nothing new to the world expect countless patent lawsuits.
Congrats to the Protesters! I think the Arab Spring is a lot more important than a stupid iOS device and YES, I'm an Apple fan.
I really don't see what Steve has done to be THIS YEAR'S person of the year. The new iPhone is not revolutionary and its main feature is still in Beta stage. The iPad2 is a speedier much more polished version of its predecessor.....but again....nothing truly remarkable.
It's based on your accomplishments for the YEAR....not lifetime. Steve has already been more than recognized for his achievements....but THIS YEAR Steve and Apple haven't done anything special.
I don't care if Jobs was named Person of the Year. Time magazine is joke. Case in point--giving people that protest with hate, violence, destruction, pooping in public anti-semestism and drug use, the Person of The Year title?
Case closed.
Frankly I find this idea that picking protesters over Steve Jobs is a "snub" disturbing. Who in the world legitimized this ridiculous notion?
Let's see-- one group of people fought for democracy, sacrificed their lives, lost family and friends, and mustered the strength and courage to fight to improve our world in the face of death after being oppressed for decades.
The other person was a successful business executive who passed away from cancer.
Time Mag. ranks up here with the Nobel Peace Prize group. Worthless! I mean come on this is the same as selecting Barack Obama as the Nobel Prize winner for doing nothing but spending our children's tax money. Time mag should be ashamed of theirselves. Not that I would have picked Steve anyway as there are far more people that should have received this.
Time's person of the year is worthless. Many times it isn't a even a person but persons. Remember when Bill Gates and his wife had to share the cover with Bono? It's become pretty stupid in recent years and not at all what it once was.
This makes me one of "the protestors" of the year! I was part of the Arab Spring protests
Steve Jobs did pretty much nothing in 2011. Why would he be eligible for "Person of The Year" for 2011?
"The Protestors" (ie. the real protestors in the likes of Libya, and not the hippy's on Wall Street complaining that daddy has cut off their trust fund) deserve infinitely more acknowledgement than Steve Jobs ever will.

Also, referencing the notes on American Sign language, I'll admit I had not thought of it as a language, despite the name. Nor had I considered the fact that it would have dialects.
Thought some here might find it interesting.
Dialects: Black American Sign Language, Tactile Sign Language. In Canada there are dialect differences with USA ASL and regional differences from east to west. Structurally and grammatically distinct from Quebec Sign Language (LSQ). Has grammatical characteristics independent of English. A few adults know both ASL and LSQ. Most signers from eastern Canada use ASL with some British Sign Language vocabulary, a remnant from Maritime Sign Language, which came from British Sign Language. Black American Sign Language developed in segregated schools in the south. It contains much sign vocabulary not in ASL and some different grammatical structure. Tactile Sign Language is used by over 900 persons in Louisiana who know ASL, but have lost their sight from a generic cause: Usher's Syndrome. They communicate by touch on each other's wrists. Some have migrated to Seattle. Some have learned Braille. ASL has 43% lexical similarity with French Sign Language in an 872-word list. Classification: Deaf sign language

It ain't what they call you, it's what you answer to.
You can fool some of the people some of the time -- and that's enough to make a decent living.
If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.
-- W.C. Fields
Phil Donahue - (after hearing an actual recording of LRH speaking) ...
"Speech and attitude reminds me of Richard Nixon - explains a lot."
That's a very astute observation. They are similar. Slimy, confident, slight speech impediment (letter "s" is always a little slurred), liars, conmen, etc.
I wonder if they went to the same charm (conman) school?
I love this quote about Heber on the dedicated Heber parent page of the link that Smurf gave us:
"Heber Jentzsch is awe-inspiring. He is an inspiration. A superlative example that all other mortals should strive to emulate. Every time he opens his mouth, a hundred people are innoculated against joining the so-called "church" of Scientology®. He is like some majestic force of nature--- an avalanche of stupidity seen careening down a mountainside in slow motion. Like a blind, drunken, nescient, lobotomized ox high on Cannabis sativa that somehow or other got the idea in its feeble little head to "defend" Scientology by being its worse example. Clue-deficient, piteous, lacking in intellect, unwittingly funny (uproariously so!), Heber Jentzsch has been instrumental in keeping innocent, unwary people from falling prey to Scientology. The world owes Heber a huge debt of gratitude! Thank you Heber, for acting exactly like the crazed, brainwashed baboon every anti-cult expert talks about when speaking about Scientology: you're their poster-boy! Way to go, Heber! PLEASE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! Please, please, please. We wouldn't want to see you replaced."
LOL ! Beautiful prose.
I don't think Heber got nailed. I don't think Phil was going out to nail him either. Phil asked tough questions and was pretty professional throughout the interview. Heber promoted the 'acceptable' version of Scientology, the version that differs greatly to the reality faced by many on staff and the Sea Org and the public who fail to toe the line. It's been ages since I've seen this but I remember Pat Harney being on it as well.
I don't think Phil was being biased either. There was some back and forth and this is how interviews should be.
Sometimes Heber can be cool and calm and at other times he just goes outrageously over the top like on the 1980's Panorama show.

Did you know?
The Kamberg rock paintings are sometimes called the Rosetta Stone of San rock art.
The uKhahlamba/Drakensberg was the first site in South Africa to be recognised as both a Cultural and Natural World Heritage Site. When you go hiking in the Little Berg you'll find out why.
The Little Berg describes the foothills of the mighty Drakensberg – South Africa's highest and most spectacular mountain range. Although the peaks offer the best views, when you hike the Little Berg you'll still experience awesome scenery and, on some walks, San rock paintings – the finest collection in the country.
One lovely walk is the Rainbow Gorge hiking trail. It's 5.5km and will take you approximately two hours, depending on your pace and how often you want to sit and admire the scenery, spot animals or gaze at the teeming birdlife.
The trail starts at Cathedral Peak Hotel and then winds through lush forest into the gorge, past rock pools, rapids and waterfalls. You'll find out why it's called the Rainbow Gorge when you see the rainbows dancing on the spray.
South of the Cathedral Peak area is Monk's Cowl, a nature conservation service station that is the gateway for many ambles, rambles and day walks. If you're really short on time then choose the 30-minute walk to Fern Forest.
Giant's Castle Game Reserve is south of Monk's Cowl and shelters the Drakensberg's finest collection of more than 500 San rock paintings. Follow a winding but easy one-hour trail from reception to the main caves. A guide will interpret the paintings for you and point out their meaning and spiritual symbolism.
The Kamberg Nature Reserve in the Little Berg is also home to superb rock paintings. From the wheelchair-friendly Kamberg Rock Art Centre, take a three-hour guided tour to Game Pass Shelter, where outsiders first understood the spiritual significance of the art.

Tours to do
Kamberg Rock Art Centre and the Game Pass Shelter Giant's Castle rock paintings tour.
Length of stay
It's really up to you, the area is truly beautiful and will reward any length of stay. But if you are pressed for time, then choose a short day walk.
What to pack
Comfortable and sturdy walking shoes or boots. Sunscreen, a hat and drinking water are essential. Take binoculars if you plan to do a spot of twitching.
Where to stay
Cathedral Peak Hotel is a perfect base from which to explore the Little Berg. Inkosana Lodge & Trekking is also a good option.
Best buys
KwaZulu Weavers & Candles has great handmade rugs, carpets and candles for sale.

In order to ensure compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (1990), the mission of the Disability Services Office (DSO) is to provide access to Centenary University's facilities and programs.
This is done through a range of reasonable accommodations and support services to identified members of the community that experience disabilities. The office also strives to serve as a liaison and resource to the members of the Centenary University community regarding disability issues.
Based on nationally regarded best practices, the Disability Services Office seeks to foster independence and to develop the self-advocacy of students with disabilities. In addition, the office strives to serve as a liaison and resource to the members of the Centenary University community regarding disability issues.
Support for Students with Disabilities
The Disability Services Office works closely with eligible students to arrange for reasonable academic accommodations and auxiliary aids, which will afford each student the opportunity to participate fully in Centenary University's services, programs, and activities. Staff members assist students with arranging access to classrooms, developing learning strategies, and advisement with disabilities issues.
The Disability Services Office also offers two programs specifically designed to support students with mild emotional and learning disabilities:
The goals of the Project ABLE and STEP Ahead programs are to provide a bridge between the structured and sometimes modified secondary-school setting to the predominantly self-directed university environment. Emphasis is placed on acquiring the skills needed to become an effective, contributing member of the university community.
Disability Services Resources
Application Process and Document Submission
Students applying for full-time admission can choose to apply for Project ABLE and STEP Ahead at any time during the application process. In most cases, a decision of admission is determined independently of application to Project ABLE and/or STEP Ahead. In some cases, when students are not considered otherwise qualified for admission, they may be able to seek admission to Centenary University by affirming their enrollment and participation in the intensive learning support programs.
Students requesting accommodations, but not applying to Project ABLE and/or STEP Ahead, must use the Application for Accommodations. In all cases, the application should be accompanied by documentation which outlines the disability for which accommodations are requested. The Application for Accommodations is available on the website, or can be mailed upon request by contacting the Disability Services Office at (908) 852-1400, ext 2168 or 2251.
Documentation should be:
- Recent, in order to assess the current impact on academic functioning. In most cases, this means testing should have been conducted within the past three years.
- Comprehensive, containing a diagnostic statement identifying the disability and establishing clear evidence of a significant impact on academic function.
- Relevant to requested accommodations.
- Prepared by a medical or other licensed and credentialed professional whose background should be matched with the disabling condition.
Because the provision of all reasonable accommodations and special services is based upon assessment of the current impact of the student's disabilities on academic performance, it is in the student's best interest to provide recent and appropriate documentation.
Review Process
Once all documents have been received, the Director of Disability Services will review all of the submitted information. Applicants may be contacted to clarify information on documents. The student may also be asked to visit campus for an interview. Upon completion of the review, a decision will be mailed home.

An informational hearing held before the California Assembly Committee on Governmental Organization (the "GO" Committee) drew 33 experts and interested parties to share their insights and opinions on the possible future of regulated iPoker in California, where two bills are currently under consideration. The wave of testifying witnesses included industry experts, casino and tribal representatives, technology and security specialists, plus a handful of public-opinion lobbyists – both for and against online poker's possible legalization. The hearing lasted over five and a half hours and included a number of surprises, including the surprise announcement of the Morongo / PokerStars infrastructure deal (above) just minutes before Morongo rep Robert Martin began his testimony, likely designed to attack "bad actor" language indirectly targeting PokerStars inserted into one of the pending bills.
