The Roger Waters 2013 tour of Europe has been extended today with the announcement of 5 more concerts in UK and Mainland Europe taking the total to 25! They were announced in his press conference today which should be available to watch shortly if you missed it here.
The pre-sales will begin on 17th November 2012 with emails being sent out from Roger Waters official website (do register there now) to give fans the chance to purchase premium Roger Waters Tour 2013 concert tickets. I think this time round, I will want to sit further back and not near the front so I can take the show in from a different and fuller perspective.
Roger Waters 2013 Tour UK Dates
Those of us in the UK can breathe a sigh of relief as Roger and the band will be performing at Wembley Stadium in London on 14th September 2013! I shall be getting tickets for that one me thinks!
Pink Floyd performed at the old Wembley Stadium before it was rebuilt back in August 1988 where they performed two concerts back to back. Roger has never played there before or David Gilmour for that matter. However, Roger Waters performed at Wembley Arena in 1987 and 2002 also which some of you may have memories of. Share them by leaving a comment below!
Roger Waters The Wall 2013 Europe
Roger will also be calling on Athens, Greece on 31st July 2013 although the venue has not yet been confirmed so stay tuned for more information on that. Pink Floyd performed in Greece in 1989 after Roger Waters had left the band. Roger Waters performed there once in 2006 and three times in 2011 with The Wall Live at the OAKA Arena. The new Wall Live Stadium version of the tour is even more spectacular though and is not to be missed!
Other concerts announced on the Roger Waters 2013 tour of Europe now include ITU Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey on 3rd August 2013. Roger played here once before in 2006 on the Dark Side of the Moon Tour but Pink Floyd never performed in Turkey before. An excellent opportunity to watch him here in what is possibly his last tour.
September 9th will see a performance of The Wall Live at Letzigrund Stadium in Zurich, Switzerland. 24 concerts have been performed here over the years by Pink Floyd, Roger Waters and David Gilmour too! Roger Waters was last here with The Wall Tour in 2011 at Hallenstadion for 4 nights. See full list.
And finally, Roger will be at Stade de France in Paris, France, on September 21st 2013 performing the phenomenal Wall Live Show! France has been a very popular place for Pink Floyd and solo performances too notching up a total of 90 shows so far. Roger last performed at Bercy in Paris back in 2011 although Pink Floyd, Roger Waters and David Gilmour have all done a fair few dates over the years!

Being that I'm a Southern California native and lived here my whole life, I know my way around from San Diego to Santa Barbara. Some of my favorite SoCal spots are The Getty, Hiking Griffith Park, Runyon Canyon, and the beaches of Orange County. I love hole in the wall spots for a great Margarita from time to time…are you up for that?
Weekend musts are finding new hiking trails around the LA Mountains or taking a bike ride along the strand in either Manhattan Beach or Newport. LA nightlife is definitely where I love to be and you'll find me at concerts, live sports like the Kings and Lakers or catching the newest blockbuster on screen.
I love to travel and go as often as possible….definitely would love to go back to Europe another time, but have the Carribean on my short list amongst other tropical locales-want to swim up to one of those great bars for a Mai Tai. I grew up on ski's and still love hitting the slopes, (Snowmass is my favorite) but love spontaneous weekend trips to Utah, Mammoth, Tahoe and locally Big Bear!! My motto is work hard play hard so weekday jogs around the Rose Bowl are a must.
So, who am I looking for? Someone who's ready for a real relationship and has a great sense of humor and knows how to laugh at themselves, too. I'm really close with my family so it's important that you're open to that and hope to have a family of my own someday soon.
So if anything sparked your interest, drop me a line and we can take it from there…would love to get to know you and see where it goes. Just be ready to live life to the fullest.
Like all types of music pretty much except Rap. Never really got into that. Big Parrothead so like Jimmy Buffett music. Also like country, and love 80's. Food-I'm branching out this year. Just got into salads, now love fish tacos, can never go wrong with pizza, and breakfast is my favorite meal of the day.

The American Banker features two "insider perspectives" on the regulatory approach of Presidential candidates Obama and McCain:
Obama on Regulation
According to Daniel Tarullo, economic adviser to Obama
- The presumptive Democratic nominee backs a detailed list of programs
aimed at protecting consumers and clamping down on lending practices,
from an interest rate cap on high-cost loans to a foreclosure
prevention fund paid for by lenders.
- Sen. Obama's $10 billion foreclosure prevention fund, designed to help
troubled borrowers sell their home or restructure an unaffordable loan,
would be funded by penalties on lenders who commit fraud. He envisions
new disclosures that would help borrowers compare mortgage products,
and he would confront mortgage fraud by beefing up reporting,
increasing funding for enforcement, and raising fines.
- Prof. Tarullo said financial institutions should not fear an Obama
presidency, since the candidate would consider the trade-offs involved
in any policy choice. Bankers "may or may not agree with a position" taken by Sen. Obama,
"but they can be assured that he will have an understanding of the
costs and benefits of any particular approach," the adviser said.
- Sen. Obama also would create a public-private commission of experts to
warn Congress and the White House about emerging systemic risks in the
- Prof. Tarullo also discussed what Sen. Obama has not said; to ensure
credit does not dry up, the candidate has been careful to advocate a
moderate approach to imposing higher capital standards on nonbanks.
- "The fact that he focused" on regulatory reform and "talked about
things that one normally doesn't see presidential candidates talk about
reflects his commitment toward change" in the regulatory system, the
adviser said. "I frequently find, and not just with bankers but with
people in industry generally, that one of their biggest concerns is
that the position they're in in the markets is not understood by
regulators or political figures or others. As I have learned with Sen.
Obama … he is both an incredibly voracious consumer of information
about all things, including the economy, and a very quick study."
McCain on Regulation
According to Douglas Holtz-Eakin chief economic adviser to McCain
- Sen. McCain believes it is important to wait until the credit turmoil
is better understood before committing government resources…Whether as a result of caution or a focus on other issues, Sen.
McCain's financial services platform is less detailed than that of Obama
- The candidate has said he would like to create a Justice Department
task force to investigate potential mortgage abuses and help state
attorneys general in their investigations of lending practices.
- McCain also would expand the government's ability to guarantee
student loans, because the credit crunch has reduced such financing.
- According to Mr. Holtz-Eakin, the candidate opposes government programs
to help consumers trying to buy homes out of foreclosure — programs
generally seen as a tool for affordable housing and for avoiding a
buildup of vacant properties — because they could wind up encouraging

It may be permissible for Aaron Baddeley's fashion sense to be behind the times, but turning up late for his tee-off time in one of golf's biggest tournaments is inexcusable.
Baddeley almost certainly ruined his chances at the US PGA on Friday when he made the cardinal sin of turning up late for his round, incurring a mandatory two-shot penalty.
After a scintillating one-under-par 69 first round, the 22-year-old Australian, who is as well known for his retro clothing as his golfing talent, shot a disastrous 77 that left him drifting six strokes from the lead.
While it's not the first time a player has made such a blunder, it is extremely rare - especially in a major.
Former top golf pro and leading commentator Jack Newton said the incident must have mentally diverted Baddeley, who admitted after the round he had been "a little annoyed" with himself.
"It would totally have unsettled Aaron mentally - to throw two shots away before you tee off," Newton said. "He would have learnt that it's his responsibility. He would have learnt a big lesson, and a costly one."
Baddeley claimed both he and caddie Anthony Knight had 7.35am in their mind as his tee time. The problem was the actual time was 7.30am.
Baddeley ran to the tee after being told by an official to get a move on but was still 40 seconds late, incurring the penalty.
"It was so close. I was nearly on time," Baddeley said.
"I was a little annoyed walking down the first but the past is past, and you can't change it. They're the rules."
Newton made no excuses for Baddeley but remembered a time when he made the same mistake.
"It was a tournament in Victoria and one round got cancelled," Newton said.
"So it was 36 holes in one day and I was to tee off at 6.15am. I was staying in a good hotel in Melbourne and asked for a couple of wake-up calls but never received them. I got to the course 10 minutes late and was disqualified."
Newton said he could remember Spaniard Seve Ballesteros doing the same thing once at the US Open.
"It happens, it's not impossible," Newton said.
"You get a certain time in your mind and someone stops you on the way to the tee for a chat. I suppose most people would say that it's part of your job to know what time to tee off. But it's not hard to get say, 8.56am and 8.50am mixed up.
"Most times you get there early and you think you've got extra time, you stop off for a chat and then you're late."
Broadcaster and former golf pro Rob Willis was less forgiving of Baddeley's forgetfulness.
"It happens from time to time, but it's very rare," Willis said.
"You just can't believe that for a major he'd be so badly prepared. I just put it down to an error in judgement."
Willis said he had never been late for a tee time. He added, however, he could understand how times could be confused.
"But really, even a caddie should have his watch on and know what time to get there. It comes down to Aaron's responsibility but a good caddie has his watch on and is prepared.
"It's just hard to believe that could happen - especially considering how well he'd been playing up till then."

"We're the freaks and geeks of New York," Kelly Osbourne declared triumphantly on stage last night in the Great Room at the W Hotel Union Square, where she was hosting the W Love hangOVER Ball to benefit amfAR.
Whoops and cheers followed: it seemed her audience, which included Karlie Kloss, Prabal Gurung, Jason Wu, Gary Clark, Jr., Stefano Tonchi, Zac Posen, and many others, was on board with the "freaks and geeks" appellation. It was a true ball: dozens of nimble, sexy, fierce competitors posed, vogued, contorted, and threw shade in pursuit of bragging rights, audience adoration, and nifty little W trophies. Ladyfag and Jack Mizrahi emceed; Edward Enninful, Fergie, Fatima Robinson, Simon Doonan, Hector Extravaganza, Mickey Boardman, and Andre Mizrahi judged (10s were the order of the evening), and Paris, well, Paris burned.
We caught model Lily Donaldson swigging straight from a bottle of white wine in the first row; she was fully invested in the proceedings. "I've got some rhythm," she'd confessed earlier, during cocktails. "I already asked Bryan if I could get onstage at the end."
For Richard Chai, the hangOVER Ball inspired a trip down memory lane. "I'm that kid that grew up going to clubs in New York, and grew up going to Sound Factory and Junior Vasquez, and it was all about the voguing houses back then—there was House of Xtravaganza, and all the different houses—so it was part of my growing up in New York," Chai said.
When we ran into our pal Simon Doonan, we were curious: if a House of Simon were to join the Houses of Xtravaganza, Ninja, Revlon, et al., what would its main characteristics be? "Everyone in my house would be very short," Doonan mused with his characteristic frankness, "and have to wear top and bottom false eyelashes."
Soon enough, we got Doonan reminiscing about the ball-scene heyday in the '80s, which he was fortunate enough to witness. "My favorite ball category ever," he confessed, "was 'Looking like you're going someplace better later.'"
Last night, the only better place anyone could think to go, once the last pose had been struck, was the afterparty at Lilium—thankfully, right downstairs. —Alexandria Symonds

When Jolie McLane's parents moved to the Central Valley her senior year of high school, she stayed behind in Southern California and endured their teasing about attending UC Merced so they could have her close by again. She had other plans for her engineering education.
Then she attended Bobcat Day in April 2006 and, in her words, "fell in love."
"Everything was so new," she said, "And I talked with professors about their research and heard from all these freshmen that they were already working for professors on research projects. It was amazing to me that such an opportunity could be available."
She submitted her statement of intent to register that day and entered UC Merced in Fall 2006 as an undeclared engineering major - something you can't do at just any school. UC Merced's
School of Engineeringlets students come in, explore options and get their footing before deciding on a specialty. That worked out well for McLane.
"I've always been interested in the human body, health and nutrition," she said. "I decided on bioengineering during my sophomore year."
By that time, she'd already gotten some of the research experience that won her over to the newest UC campus. She worked as an assistant for renowned physics professor
Raymond Chiao, helping prepare for experiments searching for evidence of gravitational wave radiation.
"It really helped me understand how a lab environment works," McLane said. "I went through the steps of setup and planning that you have to do with any experiment."
McLane said now that she's in upper-division classes, she's noticed even more hands-on experience has become part of her coursework.
"In my bioengineering class this semester, we cultured cancer cells," she said. "You get a much more in-depth view at this level."
But she's not counting on coursework alone to prepare for her future - either entering the workforce or pursuing a graduate degree in biomedical engineering after she graduates from UC Merced in 2010.
McLane is heavily involved with student organizations on campus, especially the Science and Engineering Association, which serves as UC Merced's chapter of the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers. Although McLane is not Hispanic herself, she deeply appreciates the chance to get involved and benefit from the organization, and she puts in her share of work.
"We're getting ready for the SHPE Region 1 Conference being held at UC Merced in March 2009," she said. "We definitely have our work cut out for us."
She also participates in the National Society of Black Engineers and has begun to talk with the Hispanic Engineer National Achievement Awards Corporation about internships for the summer of 2009.
McLane appreciates how, in the small-school environment of UC Merced, she hasn't had to leave her non-engineering interests behind. She's participated previously in a hip-hop dance troupe, INTRO, and this year started her own competitive jazz dance team. They've already performed at an athletics rally and Family Weekend on campus and the Merced Veterans Day parade. Next year, she said, they'll be ready to compete. And she loves how her dance commitments keep her busy student life balanced.
"As a leader of the team, I have to be a role model - be there early and ready to go, and not miss a practice," she said. "So I have to schedule it into my day. It's a lot more work than just being a member, but it helps me distress and keep up my health."
When you have so many options, it's always good to have a passion that keeps you strong, focused and balanced.

THE directions to Barry Samuel's tailor's shop came via a customer.
He is opposite the Bankstown Hotel, between the nail shop and the clothing shop. Just follow the arrow and anyway, Mr Samuel had said, "everyone knows my address".
Well, maybe not quite everyone - but if you are a woman from Africa keen to wear a little piece of home then you will almost certainly know how to track down Mr Samuel.
Is it true that he is Sydney's only African tailor?
"I certainly hope so," he says, before dissolving into the first of many peals of laughter.
His workshop is a riot of colourful fabrics brought from practically every country in Africa. The bolts of cloth are everywhere, spilling from bags, heaped on tables and falling out of cupboards.
Mr Samuel came to Australia in 1999, a refugee from strife-torn Sierra Leone. In fleeing Africa he lost touch with his family and has not seen his brother and sister since, he says.
Those early years in Sydney, when he was virtually destitute and could not speak any English were "hell", he says.
Things began to look up when he approached the owner of a tailor's shop in Bankstown and asked if he needed help. He started work immediately, using the sewing skills he learned in Africa, to make Western clothes. "Then slowly, slowly I started doing African clothes for people."
Word spread and now Mr Samuel, who has just become a father, is fully occupied producing his vibrant dresses.
The material the women bring him is imported from all over Africa, taking up to six months to reach Australia.
And depending where the customer has come from, the style will be different.
"The Nigerians, the Guineans and the Sierra Leonians wear nearly the same sort of style. But the people from, for example, Mauritania and Somalia and Eritrea, are different. They don't wear anything off the shoulder
or tight."
Mr Samuel's customers invariably speak in glowing terms about him and his clothes.
"They have to - I'm the only African tailor," he says, and goes off into another roar of laughter.

Remember the Tuck Rule game of 2002? Of course you do. Without it, we might never have been delivered the gift that is Tom Brady's NFL rise. Well, now the tuck rule game has company in the form of a heated Michigan face off that was host to a miraculous and controversial finish.
As reported by the Detroit News, Brother Rice High (Bloomfield Hills, Mi.), among the nation's top-50 teams, edged past DeLaSalle High (Warren, Mi.) on the game's final play when a 34-yard touchdown heave that traveled farther in the air landed in the hands of wide receiver Jason Alessi, who just barely got his feet in bounds for a victorious grab, as you can see in the video above. The final second touchdown gave Brother Rice a 26-24 come-from-behind win, though that was only half the story.
The other half has made the game's final moments as controversial as they were remarkable. Just seconds before Brother Rice quarterback Alex Malzone emerged as a hero, it appeared he would be his team's goat, seeming to fumble as he was sacked in the backfield on a play that would have ended the game.
The DeLaSalle players were so confident that they had pulled off the memorable upset that they rushed onto the field to celebrate. As they mobbed together, the game officials came on to signal incomplete pass, a ruling that seemed incredibly charitable to Brother Rice. Even Alessi seemed to admit that the botched call resulted in a fumble, later telling the News that Brother Rice had "caught a break," on the game's penultimate play.
Yet, an incomplete pass it was ruled, giving Brother Rice one last shot down field, one that DeLaSalle coach Paul Verska vociferously argued never should have been allowed.
"That was terrible," DeLaSalle coach Paul Verska shouted after the game. "My kids got [cheated]. You print that."
You can see the disputed incompletion/fumble play at the start of the video below. Judge for yourself. Either way, the final stages made the game one that neither Brother Rice nor DeLaSalle will forget anytime soon.

Cryptographers David Oswald and Christof Parr published a great paper at this week's CHES 2011 conference, "Breaking Mifare DESFire MF3ICD40: Power Analysis and Templates in the Real World." In this paper, they used differential power analysis to break the DESFire contactless smartcard. It builds upon previous work published in CHES 2002 on Template Analysis, a machine learning technique.
The paper is important because it uses both known techniques of power-consumption analysis and template analysis as a machine-learning technique to create a real-world break on a smartcard that is actually in use. That DESFire chip is used in railway systems in the Czech Republic, Australia, and San Francisco.
The DESfire chip is almost at the end of its life; its manufacturer, NXP, has said that they are discontinuing the chip at the end of the year and recommend upgrading to a newer chip that doesn't have this problem.
If you're an Entrust customer using our contactless smartcards, there's no need to worry. The smart cards we are using are from NXP, but a completely different chip, the P5CD081, which has Differential Power Analysis (DPA) protections built in. That chip has also been evaluated under Common Criteria to a level of EAL 5+. Its Security Target is also available on the web.
If you are unfamiliar with Differential Power Analysis, it is a mechanism to look into the processing of a computer by examining the power that it draws, and inferring what it is doing through how much power the chip draws. As a simplified example, it takes more power to add a 1 to a number than a 0. By examining what the chip is doing many times and using statistics, the attacker can learn the values of stored secrets.
Contactless smartcards are harder to do this on than others because a magnetic field both powers the card and serves as its communications link. And just as there are ways to learn the smartcard's secrets, there are ways to protect against these attacks.
However, these cards that protect against the power attacks are more expensive than simpler ones. That's the real reason why these cheap cards, such as the ones used as fancy subway tokens, lag behind the more sophisticated cards that Entrust uses for authentication.
This new attack is impressive because it brings together a lot of pieces that have been described over the last decade into an effective attack. But it is also happening just as those older cards were reaching the end of their life. The lesson here is to balance cost and security, and upgrade when the new technology gets cheaper.

PIH is officially launching its newest sister project in a rural, mountainous region of Chiapas, one of Mexico's poorest states. The new organization is called Compañeros En Salud (CES), which translates as "friends in health."
Beginning February 1, 2012, CES staff and recent graduates of Mexico's top medical school, Tecnológico de Monterrey, will begin providing high-quality health care in an area encompassing thousands of people in nearly a dozen isolated communities. The physicians will be based in two rural government medical facilities that have been underutilized and understaffed.
As with other PIH projects around the world, CES is partnering with local communities and the regional government in order to strengthen Chiapas's public health system. "This approach is based on what we've learned from local people through several years of operating a mobile clinic unit in these isolated towns," said Project Coordinator Lindsay Palazuelos. "Our goal is that community members will be involved in raising standards in every aspect of their health care."
Listening to local communities, building customized health systems
While CES is a new entity on paper, PIH has a long history in Mexico's southernmost state. Since 1989, PIH has partnered with the Chiapas-based nonprofit EAPSEC – Equipo de Apoyo en Salud y Educación Comunitaria, Spanish for "Team for the Support of Community Health and Education" – with the aim of organizing communities to improve health care and the determinants of health.
For two decades PIH accompanied that organization with clinical and program staff, financial support, and strategic planning. Working together, the organizations staffed a mobile health unit and trained dozens of community health workers.
CES will focus on providing medical care and training, while PIH will also continue supporting EAPSEC as it concentrates on programs in food security, women's empowerment, and access to credit. PIH has long recognized the intimate connection between socioeconomics and health. The best health care does little good if a patient goes home to a makeshift home or lacks access to food and clean water.
PIH's work in Mexico is made possible by a generous donation from Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, which donates a percentage of its profits to helping develop the communities where it sources coffee. This year Green Mountain will fund projects through roughly 1,200 nonprofit organizations throughout Latin America and beyond.
A region blessed with riches, but desperately poor
Despite being home to world-class organic coffee farms and incredible biodiversity, the people of Chiapas are largely marginalized. Too many households still lack electricity and water. Schools are inadequate and illiteracy rates high. Unsurprisingly, access to health care also lags behind needs, meaning that too many people suffer from preventable or treatable conditions.
By working with local communities and hiring and training a team of local community health workers, CES will take key steps towards establishing a sustainable public health system.
Attracting physicians to rural Chiapas, expanding partnership opportunities
"In rural areas, attracting medical staff is a key challenge that we wanted to find innovative ways to address," said CES's Dr. Hugo Flores. A central component of the new organization's strategy aims to address this problem.
When medical students graduate in Mexico, they enter a one year required social service assignment before receiving their medical license. Too often residents spend this year with little mentorship or guidance in underequipped rural clinics. For many, the experience can feel discouraging.
CES aims to transform the social service year into a meaningful training experience that helps build the next generation of social medicine physicians. CES is partnering with Brigham and Women's hospital residents to provide a unique package of training and support that includes global health seminars, supervision on site, and supplementary supplies, that has already attracted many interested medical students and recent graduates from Mexico's top universities, including Tecnológico de Monterrey.
These measures help ensure that physicians have the tools needed to provide high-quality care in poor communities.
The CES core team possesses several years of experience working in Chiapas. Dr. Palazuelos began work in the area as a Doris and Howard Hiatt Global Health Equity and Internal Medicine resident at Brigham and Women's Hospital in 2005, and helped launch the mobile health unit in 2007. Ms. Palazuelos began as coordinator in 2008, and Dr. Flores began serving patients in the area in early 2010.

As reported, Apple has planned to conduct its first conference call for this year, in order to discuss the financial results of the first fiscal quarter (or the Christmas quarter) on Wednesday, January the 23rd 2013 at 2:00 p.m PT / 5:00 p.m ET. However, this particular conference call won't be like the ones we are used to by now. For the first time in a long time, Apple is faced with a puzzling problem: its investor prospects for the year to come are oddly low. That's why Barclays Capital analyst Ben A. Reitzes believes this conference call would be one to remember – it might be Apple's most important event in the last 10 years.
New information reveals that for the last past three months, Apple's stock price was on a downgrade, falling by nearly 17%. However, Reitzes believes that new or revamped products Apple will surely release this year will help the company lure its investor suite. More particularly, Reitzes believes that Apple's endeavor of building a low cost iPhone aimed at emerging markets, will become the salvation of the tech giant. In a note to investors, the analyst stated:
"We believe Apple can sell a phone with a more inexpensive casing for emerging markets and a (bill of materials) below $150, and believe concerns around margin dilution may be overdone, given the pending benefit to revenues."
Reitzes also places Apple in the group of the great U.S. peer disruptors like Google, Amazon and Facebook. Amazon encountered a rough patch back in 2011, nevertheless, the company managed to pull itself back together, shining back in the year of 2012.

Apple's first conference call of 2013 could be the most important in 10 years

I'm in the market for a Taurus Judge, but found out that the cylinder length is 2 1/2". I've been under the impression that a 410 shell is 2 3/4" long. How long is a standard 410 shell? Would I have to buy special shells to fit this gun?
2 1/2" and 3" are normal 410 gauge shells and can be found anywhere
Judge 44-Ten
Announced at the SHOT Show all new production will be 3 inch guns. FYI:D
If you can afford it, get the 3" mag version, then you won't have to worry about the shell length. Anyways the federal handgun 000 shotshells are 2 1/2 and they're the only ones I'll use. The copper coated pellets reduce the build up of lead in the barrel. I'm a huge fan of my Judge.
Magnum Judge Rail?
My 3" magnum Judge is strictly for home defense. I have looked and looked and can't find a way to put a tactical light on it. They make a rail for the 2.5" Judge, but it won't fit the magnum model. Anyone have any info or ideas??
There were some new model Judges announced at the shot show this year, seven shots, a 410/45LC/454 model.
I'm not ready to put faith in Taurus yet. Not until their quality departments takes their job more seriously.
I have never been a big fan of Taurus, never owned one but shot a few, I would get one of there revolvers before I got one of there autos.

His lawyer's carefully crafted statement make it almost sound like he was merely changing flights in New York when he was pinched, but the fact of the matter is that Tea Party Patriots co-founder Mark Meckler was an idiot who illegally carried a gun in New York for "several days" before his airport arrest.
A spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which runs LaGuardia, called the case an "unfortunate situation" and said that Meckler apparently did not know the law in New York.
Spokesman Al Della Fave said that Meckler, 49, had arrived at the airport at 5:30 a.m. to board a Delta flight to Detroit.
He declared that he had the weapon in his luggage, Della Fave said, and the ticket agent notified police.
Police found the gun, which is registered, locked in a case.
"He had the weapon and ammunition, and that's like having a loaded weapon," Della Fave said.
Although Meckler has a permit for California, he does not have one for New York, where he had stayed for several days, Della Fave said.
I think New York's laws are asinine, but the simple fact of the matter is that it is a concealed carry permit holder's duty to learn the laws of the states he intends to carry his weapon in and comply with the laws of that state.

One of the masterly Stephen King's most riveting novels - every chapter ends on a cliffhanger - a Maine town and its inhabitants are isolated from the world by an invisible, impenetrable dome.
Celebrated storyteller Stephen King returns to his roots in this tour de force featuring more than 100 characters - some heroic, some diabolical - and a supernatural element as baffling and chilling as any he's ever conjured.
On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as the dome comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. Dale Barbara, Iraq vet, teams up with a few intrepid citizens against the town's corrupt politician. But time, under the dome, is running out....
Under the Dome is King at his epic best and will capture a brand new readership as well as thrilling his existing fans.
About the Author
Stephen King has written some forty books and novellas, including Carrie, The Stand and Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption (from The Collection Different Seasons), Bag Of Bones, On Writing and most recently Cell, Lisey's Story and Duma Key. He wrote several novels under the pseudonym of Richard Bachman, including Blaze (June 2007). He won America's prestigious National Book Award and was voted Grand Master in the 2007 Edgar Allen Poe awards. He lives with his wife, novelist Tabitha King, in Maine, USA.

Comments about Under the Dome:
This book is slow. It uses up the first 150 pages before it actually starts. I remember thinking "finally, it begins" and looking at the page number. That is too slow!
The violence in this book is extremly graphic and mostly women and children get harmed in horrific ways. He enjoyed describing those incidents several times over. It's gross and offensive.

Super-heavyweight boxer Anthony Joshua has put the seal on a golden Games for Britain as he won a dramatic Olympic title.
His close victory takes Team GB's incredible gold tally to 29 with the possibility of one final medal to come in the modern pentathlon. An ecstatic Joshua, 22, raised his hands in triumph while his cornerman and coach went wild along with the 10,000 crowd in the ExCel.
Another medal was won in the ring on Sunday when 21-year-old Welshman Fred Evans took silver after a brilliant Olympics in which he exceeded expectations. Evans, from Cardiff, said: "I'm only 21 - I'm one of the youngest seniors here - so I've done well and I'm over the moon with getting to the final."
In the modern pentathlon Samantha Murray is third with the last disciplines of riding, and running and shooting still to go.
The Olympics will climax with the closing ceremony later on Sunday, with Games organiser Lord Coe urging the nation to "party, party, party" when the musical extravaganza gets under way.
The handover from London 2012 to the Rio 2016 team will take place along with the extinguishing of the flame, signalling the end of the Games. Traditionally, it is a chance to celebrate what the athletes have achieved and also for a massive party.
The 2012 closing ceremony - called A Symphony Of British Music - will celebrate music as one of Britain's strongest cultural exports over the last 50 years. Many of the 10,000 athletes will be involved and will reportedly file past spectators along the aisles of the arena before gathering around the central stage in their own "mosh pit".
Artistic director Kim Gavin said: "We want it to be the best after-show party there has ever been."
The two-hour, 45-minute grand finale will start with Elgar and Waterloo Sunset at 9pm. Pop stars expected to perform include the Spice Girls, George Michael, the Pet Shop Boys, The Who, Jessie J and Tinie Tempah.
Ben Ainslie, the most successful sailor in Olympic history, will carry the flag for the British team at the ceremony. London 2012 saw the 35-year-old win his fourth consecutive gold to add to the silver he won in his first Olympics as a 19-year-old in Atlanta in 1996.

When you're stressed at work, a two-hour deep tissue massage will probably do the trick. But alas, for most of us, a massage is not a feasible corporate expense.
Even so, it's important to keep our stress in check — especially at the office. A recent survey from the American Psychological Association found that one-third of employees experience chronic stress related to work. Chronic stress has been associated with an increased risk of stroke and heart attack, and can magnify a number of other health problems, including acne, obesity and depression.

I dont plan on spending more than one to two more years in Chico. But I do love it here and hope I am able to find another place like it in the future.
I love pondering about hypotheticals; like what would happen if an EMP pulse took out the eastern seaboard, what would we do if we achieved contact with aliens, what would hip hop be like if Micheal Jackson had stayed black. You know the important things.
I like books that have a well written and thought out universe I can get lost in, books that will draw me in and before I know it, it is already 5am and I completely forgot I have to get ready for work. I also enjoy reading books that are going to teach me more about myself, kind of a guided inner journey.
Movies: The Boondock Saints, 28 Days Later, The Man from Earth.
Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Action and Adventure are the go to staples here. Usually when I want to watch a movie I simply want to stop thinking and be entertained but occasionally I want a movie that is going to make me think. If you are the same way I highly recommend watching The Man from Earth, it will get you wondering about what it means to be human.
Shows: Top Gear, Red Dwarf, Dr. Who, Star Trek:TNG and Archer.
Spending some time abroad and getting access to cable again has definitely opened my experience to new TV shows. I spend most of my time finding new shows to watch on netflix. So if you have a show to recommend let me know!
Music: I really dont know that much about music a few of the people I have found I really liked are Lindsey Stirling, Iron Maiden, Florence and the Machines, Imagine Dragons and Israeli Kamakawiwoʻole.
Food: Italian, Japanese, Indian and Thai.
I like being adventurous with food, if I have never had it before you know I will be ordering it.
Alcohol (What can I say I like microbiology and making beer is awesome)
Relaxing with friends
The sense of wonder from doing something for the very first time
Need to work on getting a sixth one
Taking over the world - Both the thrill of being emperor and the logistics of becoming and staying emperor. Also I'm pretty sure I would be a tyrant which probably says something really deep and meaningful about me but usually I just fantasize about how cool it would be to make Iceland/Greenland or Australia/New Zealand fight to the death.
Zombies - Who doesn't want to live in a zombie apocalypse!

The Values of Ecologists
The popular stereotype of ecologists appears somewhat at odds with the ideal of the objective, detached, morally disinterested researcher. Ecologists tend to subscribe to this ideal, as do most natural scientists. This puts the stereotype into question. To what extent and in what respects can ecologists be regarded as motivated by environmentalist values? What other values might contribute to their motivations? The answers to those questions have bearing on how policy makers perceive the input they receive from ecologists and it has long-term implications for the funding of ecological research. To obtain some answers I analysed over fifty randomly selected publications of ecologists for explicit and implicit value statements. The analysis revealed an abundance of value statements. However, no bias was evident towards a conservationist or ecocentric environmental ethic such as suggested by the stereotype. I will suggest some explanations and ramifications of these results that take into account the ecologist's professional situation.

THE GAZETTE has reported on two different public exhibitions this week (page 1 and page 3), both of which deal with planning applications that will have a massive impact on the local area if granted.
But how much weight is giving to the public's concerns, or even their opposition to plans?
While every developer will insist that they listen to what residents have to say about what they are intending to do to the local area, it is not likely it is high in their list of concerns.
While it is unfair to tar every developer with the same brush, they should always be held accountable to what they are told by those affected most by their actions, the neighbouring residents, and what they do in response.
More often than not slight changes are made to accede to locals' demands but the plan put forward will be largely the one that goes to council to vote on.
But therein can be the danger for developers. If they have not done at least some work on accepting people's problems with a proposed development site, they could well be told to go back to the drawing board by those people's representatives on the council.
In this instance, developers either appeal or go back and revise their plans or even give up altogether. All three are very expensive options.
So it is always worth having your say and bearing in mind what comes out of these public exhibitions to make sure both developers and the council consider the comments properly before a far-changing application is granted.

BAKERSFIELD, Calif.—Ryan Grotjohn recorded his fourth 4-hit performance of 2017 as CSU Bakersfield defeated Utah Valley 9-5 Friday night at Hardt Field. Grotjohn went 4-for-4 with three RBI's as he recorded his 15th multi-hit game in 30 starts this season.
"Ryan had a quiet four hits again," said CSUB interim head coach Jeremy Beard. "He seems confident in the batters' box and he's not getting fooled by pitches."
Roadrunners got on the board in the bottom of the first on RBI singles from Grotjohn and Mahlik Jones. A CSUB two-out error in the top of the third led to two Wolverines' runs and a tie game.
Mark Pena and Andrew Penner posted back-to-back singles to open the Roadrunner fifth. Regining WAC Pitcher of the Week Jake Mayer got the next two outs before Grotjohn singled to right to plate Pena. Jones followed with an opposite field single to right to score Penner. Jake Ortega followed with a triple to the gap in right center to drive in Grotjohn and Jones. Logan Hold relieved Mayer and struck out Cole Valletta to end the inning.
The Wolverines clawed back into the game in the top of the sixth. Trevor Peterson doubled to begin the inning. With one out, Zac Willis singled through the left side. With runners on the corners, Jake Berry reached on the third CSUB error of the game as Peterson scored. Jones relieved CSUB starter Andrew Hansen to face Callahan Moltzan worked the count to 3-2 before striking out on a Jones 89-mph fastball. Paul Estrada singled up the middle to score Willis. Jake Atkinson struck out to end the inning.
David Modler led off the Utah Valley seventh with a single to left. Trevor Howell followed with a single. Peterson flew out to right to bring up Overlund, the Wolverines' clean-up hitter. Overlund walked to load the bases. Isaiah Moten relieved Jones. His first batter was Willis who walked on five pitches, which allowed Modler to score. Pinch-hitter Justin Erlandson grounded into a 6-4-3 double play to keep the Roadrunners up by one.
David Metzgar got the CSUB seventh to a good start with a single. Protecting Metzgar who was running on the play, Max Carter, hit a chopper over the first base for a single. Metzgar advanced to third on the play. With a Logan Holt 1-0 count on Grotjohn, lefty Marco Briones entered the game. Grotjohn singled up the middle to score Metzgar. Down 0-2 in the count, Jones went opposite field again, tripling to right to score Carter and Grotjohn. Briones struck out the remaining three CSUB hitters of the inning to minimize the damage.
"The turning point for me, was the hit and run with Carter," Beard said. "He didn't get a good pitch to hit, but he executes the play and its runners on first and third. It was a one-run game, the tempo changed and we scored and some runs after it."
CSUB closer Naithen Dewnsap came on in the ninth. After striking out Modler, Howell singled up the middle for his third hit of the game. Peterson struck out. Overlund grounded out to second to end the game.
Jones was 3-for-4 with four RBI's. Pena also tallied two hits. Metzgar's first inning infield single extended his hitting streak to 13. The 13-game hitting streak is the seventh longest in school history (tied with Jones in 2016 and Oscar Sanay in 2011). The CSUB second baseman has reached base in 27 consecutive games, tying him with Tyler Shyrock (2013) for the third longest streak in school history. Metzgar recorded his team leading 16th multi-hit game by earning a 2-for-4 performance. Hansen improved to 3-0 on the year as he only gave up one earned run.
"I thought tonight was a hard fought baseball game," Beard said. "We took advantage of getting some pitches to hit as Hansen gave us a really good starting performance. We finished the game with some strong pitching and timely hitting."
The series between CSUB (18-12, 5-6 WAC) and Utah Valley (11-22, 4-4 WAC) concludes Saturday as CSUB looks for the series sweep. Corey Costelloe's pregame show on 1230 AM/98.1 FM ESPN begins at 11:45 p.m. The Roadrunner Digital Network coverage via Youtube.com gets underway at 12 p.m.

Etiquette and student recruitment: what's the fuss?
"Etiquette shmetiquette," I thought to myself when I noticed one of the University of New Brunswick law career development seminar topics was essentially Manners 101. I didn't think I needed it. I'm no Emily Post but I don't offend people by talking politics or religion on first meeting and I hold my pinky finger out when sipping tea.

To specialize or not to specialize?
For many young lawyers starting out in the profession today, "it's not so much about finding a job of your dreams, but finding a job," admits legal recruiter Warren Bongard, president of ZSA Recruitment. But can specializing early on help students land a coveted role that reflects their passions, and mould them into more competent lawyers?

The lure of project lawyers
With the North American economy still stuck in low gear, debt crises continuing to wreak havoc in Europe, and growth in China's gross domestic product dropping into the single digits, corporate Canada is keeping its belt tightly notched. Forget about adding staff: lean and flexible is today's corporate mantra. At the same time, general counsel are thinking twice before they turn to legal firms where experienced partners charge $600 and more an hour.

A pub in Putney has been named the perfect place to spend a penny.
The Rocket, in Brewhouse Lane, was awarded a gold star rating in the Loo of the Year Awards 2012.
Inspectors made a secret visit to the pub and they were bowled over by its standards.
Toilets are graded from bronze to gold, while unacceptable toilets are not graded at all.
Judges select winners based on decor and maintenance, as well as cleanliness, accessibility and hand washing.
Andres Balastegui Gonzalez, manager of the Wetherspoon-owned Rocket pub, said: "Staff at the pub work hard to ensure the toilets are in first-class condition at all times."
Mike Bone, the Loo of the Year Awards 2012 managing director, said: "The pub richly deserves its gold award."

One of Coles Myer's big suppliers of own-brand clothing, the Meydan family's Australian Horizons, has been bought by the toys and homewares distribution group, Funtastic, for $31.4 million.
Funtastic last night said it would pay Moshe Meydan's family a total of $12.37 million cash and sell the family $11 million of ordinary shares at $1.42 each, about 11 per cent below Funtastic's $1.60 closing price yesterday.
Mr Meydan will take a position as an executive director on Funtastic's board, and Funtastic will extinguish $8 million of Australian Horizons' debt.
Australian Horizons generates about $64 million a year from sales of clothing that it designs, manufactures and imports, and in the year to June it retained $7.6 million of that as profit before interest and tax.
Funtastic last night told analysts that by restructuring some of Australian Horizons' operations and rationalising the merged group's administration, warehouse and distribution systems, it could squeeze additional profits from the business.
The company said it expected the acquisition to add to earnings per share.
About half Australian Horizons' output is womens clothing, and its biggest customers are Coles Myer's Target, Myer Grace Bros and Kmart stores.
About 40 per cent of Australian Horizons' sales come from brands manufactured under licence, including Piping Hot for Target and Nike for Nike.
Its own brands include STE (sold at Myer Grace Bros), Boomdoggers and Beach Crew (Target).
Funtastic said the share offer price reflected the level where the stock was trading when the company made a formal offer to the Meydan family.
The stock last traded around $1.42 in mid July.
On Monday, Funtastic posted a net profit for the June half of $1.32 million on sales of $72.5 million. Its shares fell 5c, or 3 per cent, yesterday, a two-day loss of 9c.

Will it snow?
Outside the sky is white and grey,
the forecast said its snow today.
I walk up to the window pane
and wonder if it might just rain.
For as I doubt what I was told,
as if a promise I was sold,
I notice wisps of white appear
at last I see the snow is here.
Soon the snow has grown intense,
No longer do I feel suspense.
Instead, for sure, I will soon go
to run and play out in the snow!

I've read quite a lot from posters on here that it's not possible to have the Schizoid PD and AS. Is that really the genuine conception? Considering that AS is a PD ( IMO) I find that hard to believe.
I would imagine that many people with AS would turn Schizoid due to there difficulties in social situations.
Anyway it would be interesting to know what people with AS would think about this.

Saudi cleric preaches workers' rights
Saudi Arabia's grand mufti, the highest Muslim authority in the kingdom, has warned Saudi employers that abusing foreign labour is un-Islamic.
"Blackmailing and threatening (foreign) labourers with deportation if they refuse the employers' terms which breach the contract is not allowed" in Islam, Sheikh Abdul Aziz al-Sheikh said in a religious ruling published in Al-Madinah daily newspaper on Monday.
Sheikh Abdul Aziz, head of the Council of Senior Ulemas, or religious clerics, called on employers to stop "exploiting and oppressing the weak workers" by violating contracts.
In Saudi Arabia, abuse of foreign domestic servants is widespread, especially in the homes of the wealthy, according to Amnesty International.
The kingdom is currently trying cut its high unemployment rate by banning foreigners from working in 35 business sectors.
Foreign workers have complained that they are forced to pay high fees for residence renewal, work permits and health insurance in violation of their contracts.
About seven million foreigners work and live in Saudi Arabia, which has a population of 22 million.
Like many other Gulf states, the kingdom operates a sponsorship law for foreign workers which gives employers considerable power in contracting labour.
The mufti warned employers against withholding agreed salaries or delaying payment under the threat of deportation, saying "this is illegal and a form of dishonesty" in Islam.
The Saudi ministry of labour said last year that 19,000 foreign maids had fled the homes of their employers.
Amnesty claims that domestic violence is the major reason.
Many labourers come from the Middle East, South Asia and East Asian countries.

Testing the hypothesis that there will be a clincal significant increase in Comfort-score when the scores from admission and after surgery are compared. The highest registered score obtained during the first 24 hours after surgery will be used for this analysis. We assume that the score at admission reflects no pain/sedation, while the scores after surgery reflect varying degree of pain

|Brief Summary
|The purpose of this study is to establish reliability and validity of the Norwegian version of the Comfort behavioral scale.
|Detailed Description
|Structured pain assessment is the foundation for the management of pain. Several different pain measurement tools exists, among them the Comfort behavioral scale (van Dijk, 2005), developed from the original Comfort scale (Ambuel, 1992). The psychometric properties of the Comfort scale have been tested in several studies, but so far no Norwegian version of the scale has been developed and tested. Neither has the scale been tested in spontaneously breathing children undergoing minor surgery. The aim of this study is to establish incipient psychometric properties of the Norwegian version of the scale among children aged 0-3 years admitted for elective minor surgery.
