When a case actually goes to trial, there are many people involved and each plays an important role in the court process. A trial revolves around an argument involving two or more people. The people who bring their argument to trial are called the parties to the case. In a civil trial, one person is complaining about something another person did or failed to do. The person who does the complaining is called the plaintiff. The person the plaintiff is complaining about is called the defendant. In a criminal case, a person is accused of a particular act, which the law calls a crime, such as murder or robbery. Because this crime offends not only the particular victim, but the public or State as well, the plaintiff in a criminal case is the government or State. The person accused of the crime is the defendant.
Usually both parties will hire lawyers and instruct them to prepare the case and make arguments for them in court. A lawyer is both an advisor and an advocate. As an advisor, a lawyer informs clients about their legal options. As an advocate, a lawyer represents a client in court. A lawyer also advocates (argues) on behalf of clients in other settings, such as resolving disputes out of court. All lawyers are officers of the court. Lawyers are highly regulated by court rules, as well as by law and the professional ethics rules. If a lawyer is representing a client, the lawyer is bound by professional rules of confidentiality, meaning the lawyer must safeguard the secrecy of their conversations with the client. These rules protect clients who put a great deal of trust in lawyers to help them settle their disputes.
In a criminal case, a lawyer called a prosecutor argues on behalf of the State. The prosecutor speaks on behalf of the government, which represents the people of the state or nation. The defendant in a criminal case can either hire a lawyer called a defense attorney, or if the defendant cannot afford an attorney, the court will appoint a public defender to be the lawyer for the defendant.
Certain Lawyers Must be Elected. Prosecutors are lawyers that represent the State in a criminal case. Prosecutors are lawyers for their county or judicial circuit and must be elected by the voters.
Possibly the easiest person to identify in the court process is the judge. The judge sits at the front of the courtroom usually dressed in a black robe. Judges are like umpires in baseball, or referees in football or basketball. Their role is to see that both sides follow the rules of court procedures. Even though the judge works for the State, a judge doesn't try to prove people guilty. The judge is an impartial figure in the courtroom and makes decisions according to the facts and law.
In a jury trial, the judge rules on points of law and tells the jury about the law that governs the case. If the defendant chooses not to have a jury trial, the judge determines the facts, rules on motions, resolves disputes, and issues the judgment.
Trial Judges are Elected. In Indiana, the voters elect the judges of most courts every six years, but there are some exceptions.
Lake and St. Joseph Counties (which include the cities of Gary and South Bend).
Requirements for the Courtroom's Players
Lawyer Requirements. Becoming a lawyer usually requires a college degree and a degree from law school. Then, in almost all states, the graduate must pass a rigorous test, called the bar exam, to get a license to practice law. A license to practice law in Indiana was not required until 1931!
Judge Requirements. The primary requirement for someone to become a judge is that they have a law degree and be a licensed attorney. Most judges usually practice law first to gain more experience and knowledge about the law. But there are some exceptions. There are some city and town courts in Indiana where the local judge does not have to be an attorney to be a judge.
Fun Fact. Only the local judges of the following city and town courts must be attorneys: Anderson City Court, Avon Town Court, Brownsburg Town Court, Carmel City Court, East Chicago City Court, Gary City Court, Hammond City Court, Muncie City Court, Noblesville City Court, and Plainfield Town Court.
The bailiff calls the court to order and announces the judge's entry into the courtroom. The bailiff also helps to keep order in the courtroom and is often responsible for security in the courtroom and courthouse. Bailiffs are sometimes law enforcement officers, like police officers.
Each judge has a court clerk who administers oaths, manages the court file, numbers the exhibits, maintains the exhibits during the trial, and is responsible for all court documents.
The court reporter is the person responsible for taking down everything said during a trial. The court reporter is also responsible for making a permanent word-for-word typewritten transcript of the proceedings and putting it into certified transcript form.
The defendant has the choice of a bench trial where the judge decides the outcome of the case, or a jury trial where a jury decides the outcome of the case. The Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the defendant's right to a trial by jury in all criminal cases and the Seventh Amendment guarantees the defendant's right to a trial by jury in a civil case as long as the dispute exceeds $20. While the $20 limit may seem like a small amount, this limit was set in 1789 when the amendment was first proposed by Congress. In the Indiana Constitution, a defendant's right to a trial by jury is guaranteed in the Bill of Rights by Article 1 §13 and §20.

DETROIT - Whole Foods broke ground Monday morning at the site of its new market in Detroit's Midtown neighborhood.
Mayor Dave Bing, Sen. Debbie Stabenow and Whole Foods Market co-chief executive Walter Robb were on hand to take part in the ceremony.
Local 4 anchor Rhonda Walker also emceed the event.
The Austin, Texas-based retailer plans to open a 20,000-square-foot supermarket with about 75 employees next year. The company began looking at Midtown in 2010.
Midtown is one of the few areas in the city that is seeing population growth. It is anchored by Wayne State University, the Detroit Medical Center, the Detroit Institute of Arts and Orchestra Hall.
Whole Foods also would fill a grocery void in the area. Detroiters have long complained about having few places to buy fresh fruit, vegetables and produce.

I have a few questions for you.
Are you over 35 years of age? Do you have a limited amount of training time? Do you want to reverse—or at least slow down—as many aspects of the aging process as possible? Are you an endurance athlete looking for an extra edge? Do you want to boost power, reduce fatigue, guard against injury and increase your late-race energy reserves?
Well, who doesn't? And strength training can be the tool to help you accomplish each of these universally sought-after benefits. In fact, strength, or resistance, training is one of the most commonly overlooked means to improve endurance athletic performance.
More: How to Boost Your Tri Fitness With Strength Training
All too many triathletes sacrifice strength training in favor of additional swim, bike or run sessions. This is unwise. In fact, a well-executed strength-training program can allow you to carve up to 25 percent out of your swim, bike and run volume while improving performance and enjoying better race-day results.
I fought going to the gym for years until I reached my mid-30s. Suddenly, speed work started to look more like steady-state training, and I could no longer override a lack of power on climbs with desire. My race performances started to suffer. I could see that even with a huge volume of miles out on the roads, my fitness was not what it was in my 20s.
Adding resistance training was the next step, but I had a problem. I had no idea how to design and integrate a strength program into triathlon training. I was also intimidated by the gym because I felt like the scrawny weakling on the beach compared to the hulks pushing around weights that would crush me. So there I was, the Ironman champion, embarrassed to go into the gym.
More: Incorporate Strength Training Into Your Regimen
But my desire to win was even stronger than my embarrassment. I was introduced to a top strength coach, a woman named Diane Buchta. She led me through an entire season of weights, focusing on building overall body strength and, eventually, muscular speed.
The results were dramatic. In the first full season I used the program described below, I won the Triple Crown of Triathlon: the Nice International Triathlon, the Zofingen duathlon and the Hawaii Ironman.
Getting With the Program
I have boiled the program down to what I consider the 12 key exercises to develop overall body fitness for a triathlete. The workout is done twice a week throughout the year, and each session takes about 45 minutes. Separate the two weekly strength sessions by at least one day. The exercises, their order, the muscle groups they work and their sport-specific benefits are as follows:
1. Lateral Pull-downs (upper back; improves pull phase of swim stroke)
- Beginning position: Grasp bar with arms straight and slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Push chest forward; arch lower back
- Ending position: Pull bar in front of head down to shoulder level

Print A tradition of 3 generations. Boulet Boots have been creating quality boots since 1933. Original founder Georges-Alidor Boulet established "G.A. Boulet, Inc." in Quebec, Canada which eventually became Boulet Boots. The small town, with a population of roughly four thousand, was known their quality of labor and was known as "The Leather Town" because of it's production of quality leather good and shoes. Boulet Boots would definitely benefit from that work ethic and reputation. Since Boulet Boots was producing some of the highest quality boots at the time, the Canadian government commissioned Boulet Boots to produce all of their military footwear during World War II. In the 1960s, the next generation of Boulet's: Roger, Reynald and Robert assumed responsibility of the company. A company they had been working at since they were very young boys. With that move came the next step in the progression of this storied company. Boulet Boots became the first company in Canada to produce cowboy boots. They continue to specialize in 100% Goodyear Welt construction. In time, third generation Boulet Boots owners, Pierre, Guy and Louis ensure the company maintains their tradition of excellence which makes Boulet one of the best boot makers in the country. Boulet Cowboy Boots are sold in over 15 countries and their durability and comfort is know by cowboys all over the world.

BurdaStyle 3/2013 blouse #137 with a border print instead of...
Added Mar 8, 2013
by cathytxtwfr
Ouidah, Benin
I decided to make an outfit with blouse #137 from the March 2013 issue of BS and skirt #133 from the Feb 2013 issue. I made quite a bit of small changes though…
-I didn't have lace but was looking for a way to use up some leftover border print fabric, and I thought that the blouse would be perfect. So no lace for me. I also removed the collar and the buttons on the back.
-I don't know how to make the "V" part look nice and flat – i also have this problem when I try to add bias tape edge to a sharp V – it becomes very bunched up and not crisp looking. Anybody have ideas on the proper way of working with Vs? Should I be notching/trimming/etc something? If you know of a good pattern where I can learn how to do this, please do let me know! (i added a photo to show what i mean)
-I didn't have enough fabric for the skirt so I shortened it and left the back unpleated.
-I also am in a "i only feel like wearing skirts with elastic" phase in my life so I used elastic in the back of the skirt and left it out in the front as to avoid having pleats clash with gathers. Also if anybody knows of a good tutorial of only having a a waistband be 1/2 elastic… please let me know as I kind of haphazardy guessed at how to do it. It works, it looks fine, but I'm sure there's a better technique elsewhere.(I just made a waistband, put the elastic in, marked where my sides were and stitched the ends of the elastic into place at the sides.)
-Since I can't find very wide elastic here (maximum 1" here) I made the waist band narrower – thus making the belt narrower as well. Doesn't bother me and I still like it.
-I used my pocket pattern piece from the Colette Hazel as it is roomier and it has become my favorite pocket size.
-Added a bias tape hem, but since the fabric is stiffer the pleats don't look as nice at the hem. Noted for future projects.
The best part is that I can wear these 2 together as a dress… or separate with other tops and other bottoms!
I wrote more in my sewing blog here: http://cathywu.com/journal/treadling/2013/03/08/burdastyle-22013-skirt-133-32013-blouse-137/

Rhys Williams, Wales' 400 metres hurdles champion, has been provisionally suspended after being charged with an anti-doping violation.
The 30-year-old, the son of rugby union great JJ Williams, becomes the second Welsh athlete to be forced out of the Commonwealth Games over an alleged anti-doping violation after 800m runner Gareth Warburton.
Welsh Athletics said in a statement: "Welsh Athletics can confirm the provisional suspension of Rhys Williams after being charged with committing an anti-doping rule violation under the IAAF Anti-Doping Rules.
"Rhys has the opportunity to respond to the charges against him and to have those charges determined at a full hearing before the national anti-doping panel.
"Welsh Athletics strongly supports clean sport and has established a comprehensive education programme for its athletes.
"Welsh Athletics is obviously concerned that this is the second anti-doping violation by a senior Welsh international athlete and will be conducting its own internal review.
"Welsh Athletics will not be making any further comment."
Williams, who was the co-captain of the Welsh athletics team in Glasgow, won the European title in Helsinki ahead of London 2012.
He also took bronze at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi four years ago.
Williams, who failed to gain selection for the Great Britain team for next month's European Championships in Zurich, said he was "absolutely devastated" by the news of his failed test and insisted he had never knowingly doped.
In a statement released through his management company Concept Sports Management, he said: "I am utterly devastated about the news of this anti-doping rule violation, which has come as a great shock to me. From the outset, I would strongly like to state that I have not knowingly taken any banned substance.
"As a professional athlete, I have always supported and have been an advocate of clean sport. However, I recognise that the responsibility for this situation lies with me and I'm committed to working with UK Anti-Doping and will fully co-operate in the legal process.
"I'd like to take this opportunity to wish all the best to my team-mates at the Commonwealth Games. To be named co-team captain for the Welsh athletics team was a great honour and I am distraught that I won't be able to fulfil this role and join them as part of Team Wales. I wish them all well.
"Finally, in line with this process and until the hearing of the national anti-doping panel, I will not be making any further comment."

Ancestry.co.uk has added the London Gazette for the period 1825 – 1962 to their collections. If you have never used the Gazette then you might be surprised what you may find in there. Admiralty & War Office reports military appointments, promotions & medal awards, civil service news, British citizenship grants, law changes & new laws, deceased estates, bankruptcies, OBE & other awards and name changes by deed poll.
The gazette started in 1665 and is now the oldest continuously published newspaper. The early editions only contained the law changes. The publications are browse only at the moment, but I would have thought they would be a prime candidate for indexing.
The London Gazette along with those for Belfast and Edinburgh have been online for some time free of charge. A quick search of one of my family names DIDDAMS came back with 77 entries for that name. The entries dated from 1841 to 2011and covered a wide range of notices and added considerably to my family history. Interesting the earliest and latest notices concerned bankruptcy, which perhaps shows that life doesn't change much! The Gazette doesn't simply cover London, but deals with events that occurred throughout Britain.
The Ancestry collection notification states that there are random gaps in this collection and it does not include every volume published between 1825 and 1962. I couldn't find out if this was the case for the official website, but suspect that it doesn't.

I am a big fan of Chef Paul Prudohmme. In his Louisiana Kitchen cookbook there is a breakfast recipe called Eggs Basin St. Basin St has an interesting history and I am not sure why he chose it for the name of this dish.
His recipe is a city dish finished with Bearnaise Sauce.
My interpretation starts out the same but then takes a sharp turn away from the city and heads straight to the Bayou Country. You will need a Cajun sized appetite to take this on.
A couple days ago I made some Andouille Sausage and I threw on a couple pork breakfast steaks.
This morning I went to work on what I call Cajun Sunshine Breakfast. The Andouille sauce includes what Cajuns call the Holy Trinity and of course cayenne pepper.
I browned the diced sausage , sautéed the trinity, and made a sauce with beef base and water.
Next I made some rice patties and fried them up.
I fried up the smoked pork steaks.
I fried some eggs sunny side up and put it all together.
You will have to take my word for it but man it was good.
Thanks for looking.

Embattled defenders of horseracing in the UK and Ireland will allow themselves a wry smile at China's decision to buy into Irish thoroughbred racing and breeding expertise. Just as communist China is trying to breathe new life into a sport it once outlawed, racing is under fire in the decadent west.
The news that Ireland will help China set up a $2bn national equine centre came the day after critics renewed calls for a ban on the Grand National – English racing's best-known and most gruelling steeplechase. Two horses had to be destroyed after falling in Saturday's race. Read more

THE annual Light Up A Life switch-on for Wirral Hospice St John's takes place this weekend.
Thousands of lights on trees in the Clatterbridge-based hospice gardens will be turned on during Sunday's ceremony, which starts at 5.30pm.
Andrew Scaife, chaplaincy team leader from Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust will lead the service.
Wirral brothers Mathew and Cameron will then flick the switch in memory of dad Kenneth, who died at the hospice in October last year.
Leading the congregation in singing of carols will be the Cantemus Choir, accompanied by Wirral Schools' Brass Band.
Now in its 18th year, the Globe-backed campaign raises much-needed funds for the hospice.
Lights are sponsored in the names of lost loved ones. The switch-on wiill take place at 5.30pm and lights will remain lit until twelfth night in January.
This is a special event looked forward to by many people who have found comfort in celebrating the lives of people who are special to them.
Last year's switch-on raised £100,000 for hospice running costs and there is still time to sponsor a light.
Lesley Woodhead, fundraising manager at Wirral Hospice St John's, said: "I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported the event this year.
"We welcome the coupons and there is still plenty of time to sponsor a light.
"There is still time to honour someone by lighting a light and you can do this on line at our website, by completeing the form here or by calling the office on 343 0778."
The names of those honoured will feature in special books which will be placed in the hospice chapel.
They will be on view from 4pm on the day and then 5-7 daily until Friday, December 7.
For the first time this year lights can also be sponsored on line at www.justgiving.com/Lesley-Woodhead1
You can also support the fundraising campaign by purchasing special pinbadges from the hospice.

Kos' 3rd century Roman villa, Casa Romana, was originally restored by Italian archaeologists in 1933, but was closed for conservation in 2002 until 2010. The result has been worth the wait; the floor mosaics around the three interior courtyards, with images of a tiger, sea creatures and other assorted animals, are now more much vivid and attractive than they were. Faint red crosses outside were the Italians' marking of the building as a wartime hospital, to deter Allied bombers. And it's quite possible you'll have the place to yourself – the Casa Romana is one of Kos' most unheralded attractions, not featured in most major guidebooks.

Jones School Leadership
The faculty, staff, students, family and friends of the Jones Graduate School of Management gathered on the campus for the end-of-year Annual Jones School Softball Tournament on Saturday, May 3rd. The day turned out to be beautiful and a sizable crowd came out to watch the tournament and enjoy good food and company. Six student teams — first-and second-year teams from all three MBA programs — started off with a round-robin tournament. The first-place team, the Class of 2009 MBA students, advanced to the finals against the staff/faculty team. The last game resulted in a nail-biting showdown, in which the students claimed to have won by one. Associate Professor of Finance Barbara Ostdiek served as the general manager while Assistant Professor of Management Brian Rountree acted as manager for the team. The fun-filled tournament, organized by the Jones Student Association, was followed by the Cinco de Mayo Alumni Partio. Thanks to all that took part in this event and made it a great success!

The scapegoat
Right from 2005—the year when the Supreme Court upheld Afzal Guru's death sentence handed out originally by the designated special court—and later confirmed by the Delhi high court—in the 13th December 2001 Parliament attack case—a strong line of opinion held that Afzal was at best a scapegoat—a victim of the machinations of the Jammu and Kashmir Special Task Force (STF)—and the Delhi Police Special Cell.
There were strong and genuine reasons behind several groups and individuals — including respected lawyers like Nandita Haksar—adopting this position. Afzal's several letters, statements made by Tabassum, his wife, and a host of human rights activists — even senior advocates like Ram Jethmalani — show that Afzal was a Kashmiri militant who surrendered to the BSF in 1993; thereafter, fighting odds stacked against surrendered militants, he started his own business in surgical equipments in Kashmir; seeing him doing well, the Jammu and Kashmir STF and even sections of the Indian army started harassing him for money; he was picked up and tortured on several occasions; one such instance saw him shelling Rs 100,000 to stave off torture; the pressure on him — as on all ex-militants — was that he should become a Special Police Officer (SPO) or an informer of the Indian army; during one of his torture sessions, Afzal met Tariq, a person working for the J&K STF. Tariq advised him to cooperate with the STF; soon, in 2001, STF's Davinder Singh, who besides extracting money, had tormented Afzal on several occasions, asked him to take a man to Delhi.
The letter
Afzal's letter says that Muhammad, the man he was asked to take to Delhi by the STF, did not speak Kashmiri. Muhammad gave Rs. 35,000 to Afzal in Delhi. Afzal went back to Kashmir after the 13th December 2001 Parliament attack. There, the STF took him into custody; after torturing and robbing him of Rs. 35,000, the STF handed him over to the Delhi Police Special Cell.
Afzal learned that Muhammad was one of the five militants killed during the 13th December Parliament attack. The other four included Tariq, the man Afzal had met while being tortured by the J&K STF.
Shocking omissions
Among the other three — Hamza, Raja and Rana — Hamza apparently, was arrested by the Thane Police and handed over to the J&K Police in December 2000. In fact, SM Shangari, the then Thane Police Commissioner, recognized Hamza among photos of dead militants in the Parliament attack flashed across India by the media. Shangari noted uncanny similarities between blueprints, arms and ammunition recovered from Hamza in the Thane arrests and the dead person carrying the same name in the Parliament attack. Shangari contacted J&K Police with his stunning discovery—saying that it was a case of `mistaken identity', K Rajendra, the then Inspector-General of J&K Police, dismissed Shangari's findings.
Bizarre judgment
Now comes the really interesting part. These facts were highlighted only after the Delhi High Court condemned Afzal to death. Around the time his appeal came up before the Supreme Court, it became perceptible that Afzal had no lawyer during the entire trial court phase. The lawyer appointed in the Delhi high court phase actually told the court that Afzal wanted to die not through the noose but a lethal injection (has anyone heard of a defence lawyer making this request)? None of the 80 witnesses produced by the prosecution identified Afzal as a Jaish-e-Mohammad militant; officers from the J&K STF came to the sessions trial — conducted by a special court in a record six month period — in Delhi and threatened Afzal with dire consequences to him and his family if he did not toe their line; on 20th December, 2001, the Delhi Police Special Cell organized a totally illegal media trial in which Afzal was made to confess his crime under duress; during this illegal media trial, Afzal refused to name SAR Geelani, the other accused, as guilty, upon which, Rajbir Singh, the Delhi Police Special Cell ACP, shouted at him; Tahir Shams Khan, the Aaj Tak correspondent, heard Rajbir Singh's rebuke to Afzal and deposed before the Court; Tahir's testimony became an important point in Geelani's acquittal by the Delhi high court.
Ashok Chand, another Delhi Police Special Cell officer deposed falsely before the Delhi High Court that his agency did not organize Afzal's media trial on 20th December 2001; the Delhi high court noted duly that Ashok Chand lied under oath; yet no action was taken against Chand. Rajbir Singh too was not censured. Accused of staging several false encounters and corruption deals involving money, Rajbir Singh was shot dead in 2008 at Gurgaon, by a property dealer over some monetary dispute.
Afzal finally got a lawyer—Sushil Kumar—at the Supreme Court stage. But Supreme Court can only review cases—it cannot look into the evidence. While upholding Afzal's death sentence, the Supreme Court admitted that despite scant evidence against Afzal, the maximum punishment had to be given to Afzal to `satisfy the collective conscience of the nation'.
Never ever in the world will you hear a Court of law using such words in an official judgment. So let's not beat around the bush—the truth about Afzal Guru's involvement in the 13th December 2001 Parliament attack is speculative—as spelled out by Omar Abdullah, the J&K Chief Minister, the evidence in Afzal's case is purely circumstantial and it does not fall into the rarest of rare categories.
Questions and answers
Questions and answers
Then why was Afzal hanged? This is where the complexity arises — if the Supreme Court of India gives a right-wing, bizarre judgment, how much a liberal Government—such as the Congress led UPA — can do? A Leftist government can of course ground to pulp an unfair Court judgment. But a liberal Government is very vulnerable to right-wing pressure, especially when the global atmosphere is anti-Muslim and right-wing, and major institutions of the Indian State—like the bureaucracy, Police, Army, secret services, everything—are either badly infiltrated by the RSS or under the grip of Islamophobia.
People will ask how Sushil Kumar Shinde — the Home Minister — could be so callous as to not inform Afzal's family (sending information through speed post in this age doesn't even sound funny) or allow him to meet his wife and family members for one last time? This again, is something for which the right-wing is responsible. The home ministry is certainly at fault and logically Shinde should take the blame. But time will tell in what way he was actually set-up by right-wing forces in the Home Ministry who were angry with Shinde for focussing on Sanghi terrorism and issuing a list of 10 Sanghi terrorists.
Which brings us to the main point: Afzal Guru's wacky hanging marks only the beginning of a process. Once kick-started, a liberal government cannot halt the progression of harsh punishments to real terrorists.
Hindutva terror
Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru said that majority communalism is more dangerous than minority communalism. In that sense, Saadhvi Pragya and Raj Kumar Purohit and other Hindutvawaadi terrorists pose a greater menace to Indian national interests. Afzal Guru was just a pawn in a larger game. But Raj Kumar Purohit, the chief accused in the Malegaon, Mecca Masjid and Samjhauta Express blasts, is a man of the Military Intelligence. His charge-sheet says his group wanted to organize a right-wing coup in India, scrap the Indian Constitution and declare India a fascist Hindu Rashtra.
The RSS and the BJP have never once condemned Raj Kumar Purohit, Saadhvi Pragya and other Hindutvawaadi terrorists. Recently, a totally weird operation was launched by the Hindutvawaadi forces in the Indian army to save Raj Kumar Purohit. The latter was portrayed as a plant send by the Military Intelligence to spy on right-wing groups engaged in terror!
Rajiv Gandhi and Beant Singh's killers will get the punishment they deserve—Delhi gang-rape accused also will be tried speedily. But Government of India needs to get its act together on the Hindutva terror angle. This current poses a direct threat to the very existence of Indian democracy, secularism, the Indian republic, and the life and liberty of Indian citizens. Fast track courts need to be set-up; just as Afzal Guru was tried speedily, Purohit, Saadhvi Pragya and others should be tried within a six-month time framework and punished immediately if found guilty. Institutions involved in Hindutvawaadi thinking — especially the Military Intelligence, Intelligence Bureau, secret services, media and the judiciary—need to be purged and detoxified from such influences.
Hypocrisy of the right-wing
The RSS-BJP and people like Narendra Modi should stop being hypocritical. They are practising double standards—one for Afzal Guru and the other for the likes of Raj Kumar Purohit. Till date, Narendra Modi has not condemned Sanghi-Hindutvawaadi terrorists. For the time being, a liberal State is tolerating Sangh Parivar excesses and Narendra Modi's deviations. The Courts too are taking a soft view as far as Sangh Parivar and Modi are concerned. On 9th February 2013, students and citizens protesting peacefully at Jantar Mantar were assaulted—girls molested—by Bajrang Dal activists and the Delhi Police. Rajnath Singh, the BJP President, was present when the hijabs of Kashmiri Muslim girls were being torn. The entire 9th February episode is a slap in the face of the Home Ministry. It reveals the collusion between right wing-communal forces and the Delhi Police.
This approach has to change. Sushil Kumar Shinde has to act immediately on the 9th February incident, clampdown on Bajrang Dal, and dismiss and arrest Delhi Police personell of the Mandir Marg Police station. Else, the consequences could be fatal. Already, the Home Ministry is facing flak for not allowing Afzal Guru's family to offer prayers at his Tihar grave. This kind of approach is inhuman. The question of sending Afzal's remains to Kashmir should also remain open. What is the Government afraid of? Does the UPA Government lacks MPs with balls, who can boldly come forward and defend a decision?
The real test before Congress is to convince Kashmiris, dissenters, human rights activists in the long run that Afzal Guru's hanging perhaps, was a necessary evil. It is the job of politicians to win over hostile constituencies. If the Congress leadership fails to convince Kashmiris on the Afzal Guru issue, it will lose forever the moral right to govern India.
Already, Afzal Guru's hanging has sent a very bad message to Jammu and Kashmir, an integral part of India. The unjust execution has hurt the very idea of India. There was relative peace in the region for the last two years. But now, there is genuine fear about thousands of Kashmiri youths getting radicalised and reviving militancy in the valley.
National crisis
In moments of national crisis, a liberal State has to take tough action. If it can hang Afzal Guru, it can also mete out similar punishments to Raj Kumar Purohit and Hindutvawaadis. Narendra Modi basically is a coward; fearing protests from anti-RSS forces like Swami Swarupanand — the Shankaracharya of Dwarika and Badrinath — he chickened out from going to Allahabad on 12th February for a dip in the Sangam during the great Maha Kumbh Mela.
It's time we called a spade a spade. The Government of India has decided to shed those aspects of liberalism which were being seen as weaknesses by right-wing forces, fundamentalists and terrorists of all—Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Christian—denominations.
Kashmiri separatists
Apart from BJP's doublespeak, the chicanery of Kashmiri separatists also stands exposed. They did not ensure that Afzal Guru gets a proper lawyer when it might have mattered; various Hurriyat groups conveniently forgot to allocate funds for Afzal Guru. Now, they are shedding crocodile tears, and, by linking Afzal Guru with Maqbool Bhatt, are trying to instigate Kashmiris.
The BJP-RSS are playing similar politics as the Kashmiri separatists. Their `nationalism' stands exposed—by supporting the Akali Dal on the Balwant Singh Rajoana issue, they have shown their basic, anti-national character. Rise in militancy in Kashmir will serve BJP's interests—it is the party's secret desire that such a development indeed takes place—is the Congress led UPA Government going to oblige the right wing? Or is India's Grand Old Party (GOP) and its governing alliance going to shed its liberal gallimaufry and retrieve its lost, Left-of-Centre/uncompromisingly secular, credentials?

CHRIS Wilson has hailed the commitment of his players ahead of tomorrow's home encounter with Swanage Town & Herston (2pm).
The Portland United boss is delighted with the way things are going at Grove Corner at present, not only in terms of results but also in regards to the depth of his squad.
He told Echosport: "I don't know much about Swanage this year but we will approach it the same as any other game and look to put in another good performance.
"We should have a couple more back as well with Andy Harris and Jimmy Dailey both available, which will make the squad even stronger.
"We have got a lot of competition for places at the moment and what that does is enable us to make decisions for the right reasons in terms of form and things like that.
"That situation is very much down to the players and their commitment, and I would like to thank them for their continued hard work."
Holt United and Hamworthy Recreation took advantage of the Blues being in Dorset Senior Cup action last week by moving above the islanders in the Magna Dorset Premier League table.
However, Wilson's men still sit third, just two points off the top with three games in hand.
Chickerell United boss Maurice Welch will be after a response at Merley Cobham Sports (2pm) following last weekend's home defeat at the hands of Tintinhull.
That loss ended a run of six straight league victories for the Chickens who will want to get back on track as soon as possible.
Welch said: "Hopefully we will bounce back tomorrow. We were not at the races at all against Tintinhull but I am sure I will get the reaction at Merley I am after.
"Tom Peck could be back available this weekend, which would be a big boost, but I am still waiting to hear on Josh Tennant, who has been out recently with a wrist injury.
"Dan Welch and Ross Connor are both still away."
Weymouth Reserves return to action with a home clash against Cranborne (2pm).
The Terras' game at Swanage last weekend was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch and joint-boss Jake Rich-mond is hoping his side can pick up from where they left off.
He said: "The lads are on it at the mom-ent and I am sure they will keep it going.
"I went and watched Cranborne last weekend and they are a good, honest team that never give up but there were a few weaknesses in their side too, and as long as we are on it and our attitude is right I think we will be okay."
The Terras are unbeaten in five and currently lie ninth in the table while the Cranes sit 13th.
Finally, Bridport Reserves travel to Senior League outfit Kingston Lacy in the second round of the Dorset Senior Trophy (1.30pm) without the services of boss Robin Townsend.
The Bees recorded a fine 4-0 league victory at Cranborne last time out and will be hoping to carry that form into cup action.
Townsend said: "I am away so Mark Lock will take the side and I am sure the lads will come away with a great result following last weekend's much-improved performance.
"We will go into the game as favourites but in the cup there are no favourites and it is important we give them the respect they deserve.
"Hopefully the outcome will not spoil my holiday."

Hope this helps you guys and keep shootingRegardsSteve
Thanks for sharing that valuable information @Wildfire71
On a similar note, when I attended SIGGRAPH this past year I met a really energetic, warm and friendly group who represented Pond5 which is trying to be a little more than yet another stock photo exchange site.
well i use photobucket for picture sharing. its very good and lots of websites have option for photobucket sharing links
@hthomas -- Photo bucket, flicker, picasa are all sites meant for consumers to share their photos with friends and family. I believe the sites mentioned by @Wildfire71 and @ParkinT are meant for professionals to share their work with each other.
You are right. that's the reason I said I will check these too
Flickr is the only one of those sites that I use, and I wouldn't say that it's not for pros. I've heard of pro photogs getting work as a result of their flickr portfolios, and Getty actively uses Flickr to recruit new stock photographers. I think they even have some sort of distribution channel through flickr. It's definitely a good option for professionals.
well i would say Photobucket is obviously a good option but i went there and find out that this isn't a bad option either!
Great stuff that you just shared!
Thanks for that!
Actually redbubble is not for professionals (although there are many there), its for anyone that loves taking photos, shirt designs, painting, drawing ect and wish to share with others. Its also a great community as there are many groups to join and participate in challenges and support and encourage each other in a positive environment.If you want to advance with photography it will help you gain skills and confidence no matter what skill level you are at.If you wanna say hi there just look for Lickapop and I will answer

Jim Teter, president and CEO of Goodwill Industries of Central Arizona, discusses how the economic bust has affected Goodwill, why they've seen an increase in donations, employment at Goodwill, its future and more.
Jim Teter
Title: President and CEO
Company: Goodwill Industries of Central Arizona
Why did you decide to move to a nonprofit after all your years of success in for-profit industries?
I've always had a lot of respect for Goodwill's mission and Goodwill's board of directors was looking for a little bit different direction as we continued to grow. They were looking for someone that had business experience because we operate Goodwill like a business, but they also wanted someone who had some nonprofit experience as well. I've been involved in nonprofits as a volunteer for over 25 years, but I've run larger business operations. I think the board of directors found that appealing. It's given me a chance to use all my experience to help make a difference for Goodwill. At the end of the day, that's what it's about: helping Goodwill be all it can be as we grow and get bigger.
Has the economic bust been a boon for Goodwill?
Because of the nature of what Goodwill does, which is a thrift retail business, we tend to fare a lot better in difficult economic times than most businesses. Up until 2007, we were growing 20 to 22 percent a year. In the years during the recession we're still growing at 11 or 12 percent a year and reaching thousands and thousands of people and helping serve them. So this has been an opportunity for us to introduce some new people to Goodwill because a lot of people are looking for the values that they find when they shop at Goodwill, so our customer counts are up and our revenues are up. Those are all good things.
Are you seeing a shift in donations?
What we've found is that people tend to hang on things a little bit longer. People are not donating quite as much as they did before the recession. But the good news is we have more people donating. Our donation counts are up about nine percent year over year. I think that's because people know that we are going to get the most value out of their donations, and we help a lot of people prepare for and find work. That's what we are all about: helping people find work.
How has the increased unemployment rate impacted Goodwill's goal of putting people to work?
People that are coming in the career centers today are quite diverse in their backgrounds and their experiences. Generally speaking, we still have a lot of entry-level employees that are seeking jobs, but we get a little bit of everything these days. We have people that have college degrees, masters degrees, PhDs. What we offer them is, at no cost to them, a very convenient way to go build resumes, learn skills they didn't have so they can move into a different industry. A lot of people are finding that attractive and taking advantage of that.
Where do you see Goodwill ten years from now?
We believe we can continue to grow and help more and more people. The only reason we want to be bigger is because we can reach out and serve more people, help more people prepare for and find jobs. I kind of wish we could put ourselves out of business, but I don't think that's going to happen. We will be the first thing that comes to mind when people ask, 'Who can help someone with employment and job training? That's Goodwill.' That's where we would like to be in the next five to ten years.

A MAN who was pulled from the River Ouse in York this evening after jumping from a city-centre bridge has been held by police.
Officers were called to the stretch of the river near Lendal Bridge at about 6.20pm after a member of the public saw the man leap into the water and start swimming downstream.
North Yorkshire Police's control room said the officers who were in the area at the time were equipped with throwlines which helped the man get to the riverbank, due to a lack of exits from the water. He is not believed to have got into difficulties, but was "intoxicated" and taken to hospital as a precautionary measure, after which he has been detained by police. The fire service had also been contacted when the man was spotted jumping from the bridge.
River safety in York has been placed in the spotlight following the recent deaths of Megan Roberts and Ben Clarkson, whose bodies were found in the city's rivers weeks after they disappeared following nights out. A river safety summit was held in the city earlier this week, with agencies saying better education about the dangers posed by rivers is needed to prevent more tragedies.

Maria Menounos
AppealMaria Menounos has been duly recognized for her hotness. Besides her stops on Entertainment Tonight and Access Hollywood, Maria Menounos is an AskMen Top 99 regular, having ranked at No. 5 in 2006, at No. 8 in 2007, at No.11 in 2008, at No. 55 in 2009, at No. 87 in 2010, at No. 46 in 2011 and at No. 85 in 2012.
In addition, FHM ranked Maria Menounos as No. 79 on its 100 Sexiest Women in the World list for 2003, and People included her in its 2004 list of the 50 Most Beautiful People. Maria Menounos also won the Cyber Vixen of the Year award in 2005 for her work as a Bond Girl in the video game version of From Russia With Love. She also took home MadTV's Smokin' Hot TV Personality award in 2010.
SuccessOne of the most intriguing aspects of Maria Menounos' career is her versatility. While it makes it hard to track her future movements, it means she's completely unpredictable and full of surprises. It's clear that she enjoys trying her hand at as many things as possible, so we'll be able to enjoy her new endeavors as much as she will like indulging in them.
And since she's comfortable as a host on shows ranging from American reality programs like Clash of the Choirs to Greece's Eurovision Song Contest, Maria Menounos is a formidable threat on multiple continents.
Lastly, Maria Menounos has tried her hand at acting, having starred in 2007's Kickin It Old Skool. She also celebrated the release of her directorial debut with 2006's Longtime Listener. In 2010, she both produced and starred in the dark comedy Serial Buddies.
Maria Menounos BiographyThe Greek-American beauty Maria Menounos has been a natural fit for entertainment since she started pursuing pageantry as a teen. Born on June 8, 1978, in Medford, Massachusetts, Maria debuted in beauty pageants at 17 and a year later, she won the Miss Massachusetts Teen USA crown, sending her to Miss Teen USA. Although she didn't win, she later competed for Miss Massachusetts USA in 2000 and finished as the first runner-up.
Maria Menounos' parents wanted her to work on something more practical in college than acting, but she took a liking to performing and producing. She showed her skills in a handful of independent films before learning how to do journalistic duties in front of the camera at Emerson College. By 2001, her talents won her a spot on Channel One News, and she scored a one-on-one interview with President Bush, a mark that her career was on the upswing.
maria menounos on entertainment tonightThrough a pageant, Maria Menounos was introduced to Entertainment Tonight cohost Bob Goen, and she seized the opportunity. As luck would have it, she earned a place on the show in 2002 as a reporter. Maria Menounos covered all areas of entertainment news with ET, and her superiors were so pleased that they offered her a chance to work on their MTV and VH1 spin-off. By 2005, though, Maria Menounos wanted a change and she found it.
Maria Menounos wanted to get back into acting, so she quit Entertainment Tonight and secured a deal with NBC/Universal that would let her act and also work on television. As a result, Maria began to pop up in all media. Fantastic Four was her big movie break in 2005 opposite the Human Torch, Chris Evans. On TV, Maria Menounos split her time between talk shows The Today Show and Access Hollywood, but also found her way onto established series like Without a Trace, One Tree Hill and Scrubs. Clearly, Maria Menounos was wasting no time in taking advantage of her more flexible work schedule.
maria menounos and askmen's top 99
In 2007, Maria Menounos equally divided her time between television, acting and social causes. Kickin' It Old Skool marked her comedy debut with Jamie Kennedy, and In the Land of Merry Misfits, a film she produced at age 17 and later restored from lost elements, played at the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival. She also served as the host for Clash of the Choirs, a music-based reality series that served as a personal throwback to Maria Menounos' own days singing in school choirs.
Maria Menounos is an AskMen Top 99 regular, having ranked at No. 5 in 2006, at No. 8 in 2007, at No.11 in 2008, at No. 55 in 2009, at No. 87 in 2010, at No. 46 in 2011 and at No. 85 in 2012. Maria's sexual sparks and hard-earned success are two reasons for her inclusion in AskMen's Top 99 year after year, but her continued generosity toward others can't be ignored either. Maria Menounos takes time to devote herself to charitable causes, with her most well-known endeavor being Take Action Hollywood, an organization that uses celebrities to bring attention to social causes.
maria menounos on dancing with the stars
This year, Menounos appeared on season 14 of Dancing With the Stars alongside dance partner Derek Hough. Fans were disappointed after their elimination during week No. 9 of the series, but they finished fourth in the competition.

LAKELAND, Fla. – The Saint Leo volleyball team could not maintain their high from the Senior Day win last weekend as the Lions dropped a 3-1 (25-22, 23-25, 25-16, 25-22) decision to host Florida Southern in Sunshine State Conference action on Tuesday evening.
Offensive numbers were hard to come by for the Lions, as they only hit .179 compared to the Mocs' .284 average as the game was also not played perfectly with both teams combining for 37 attack errors and 20 service errors.
The Lions (11-16, 3-12 SSC) still managed to post an impressive final-set where, despite the final tally, they significantly outplayed their opponents with a .300 to .194 advantage in hitting percentage. It was a five-point swing in the middle of the set that prevented the Lions from pushing the match to a fifth set.
Florida Southern (20-11, 10-5 SSC) was led by Ali Skayhan who recorded 11 kills, 36 assists and 14 digs and hit .556. Anne Pietkiewicz also led with 12 kills and added 10 digs.
In the loss, Saint Leo was paced by 14 kills from Sami Vierk and 10 kills from Tawni Warren. Molly Alexander paced the Lions defense with 22 digs as they outdug the Mocs for the match, 61-56.
The Lions will close out the 2012 season when they travel to Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. to face Nova Southeastern on Friday night. Game time is scheduled for 7 p.m.
This postgame recap is brought to you by Papa Joe's Italian Restaurant in Brooksville, Fla.
As always, be sure to follow the Lions on Twitter and "like" us on Facebook!

Farewell but not Goodbye
After almost a decade here at MOPA, I am sadly writing my final blog post as a MOPA staff. MOPA has been my home for almost a decade and when I started in 2002 as the Director of Education and then transitioned to Deputy Director a few years later, I had no idea that MOPA would grow and develop into such an exciting and innovative organization over the years. As we like to say internally, "MOPA is a laboratory for new ideas." And I have certainly been given the privilege and opportunities to experiment with new ideas over the years.
From the youth exhibition, CARE program, spring and summer camps, education curated permanent collection exhibitions, creating professional training opportunities for staff, implementing systems and procedures, leading several successful audits, overseeing two website redesigns, initiating a collaboration with UCSD and NICT to pilot a touch table, and to implementing the Museum's accessibility, technology and visitor experience initiatives, the list goes on and on, I am honored to have been part of MOPA and to have been given the opportunities to contribute to its development.
I especially want to acknowledge the staff, board, patrons, and volunteers at MOPA. They are an amazing and talented group of people. Without their passion, MOPA would not be who it is today.
I am thrilled that I will not be leaving Balboa Park. I will be joining the Balboa Park Online Collaborative (BPOC) as their Deputy Director and will continue to collaborate and interact with MOPA and its talented staff.
So for now it is farewell, but not goodbye. I look forward to watching MOPA as it continues to grow and develop into a Center for Visual Learning.

Coin Flip pitched well last time out, so what do you think, out by the fourth? Any chance of leaving here having gained ground means he has to win today. He has a decent 3.83 ERA in 10 starts against the Phillies, but is 2-3.

No Ryan Church today. Still suffering the fallout from the migraine. Last night Jerry Manuel said if Church was able to play he would. This morning he said it is his policy to sit a player the day after he pulls him from a game with an injury.
He also said Church could play today.
Oh well, the spin continues.

text: EduardoMoura 298 Report post Posted January 3, 2013 Well, first of all I have done this in different ways but right now I am trying to implement it with SAT. Before I start let me set two points clear: Separating Axis Algorithm is working flawless, both Swept method (TOI etc)and Discrete(Normal MTV) (I have written a article on it, with a tutorial , soon to be posted for all to use/read) I can implement this in a hacky way with a crap ton of sensors around the player., by this I mean around 8. So my question is, if I wanted to implement a movement like in the sonic Hedgehogs games for genesis using SAT how you go about it? I have done this before with using sensors around the player to calculate slopes and all the other collisions, I could do it like this again, but I feel this way is hacky, I mean, using SAT I get somewhat a simplified 3D collision system, meaning I have access to normal of the polygons, their vertices, MTV, estimated time of impact, estimated time the polygon will leave (think bullets), etc. I though of using the normal of the polygon the character is standing but it doesn't seem to want to work decently. I guess I want to find a aproach without using a sensor for each direction, bot, top, left,right angle, main. So even if you don't know how to handle slopes like sonic does, SAT collision how would you do it in a simple movement way without using sensors, but still getting enough info to know where the collision is and stuff like that (This might trigger some ideas on my side, sinse I already know how to do this, your way might make see another perspective anyway). Any insights would be greatly appreciated... Sincerely Morphex. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
