Unfortunately, a digital scanner with the "Highway Patrol Alert" feature does not exist. And the "Close Call" feature won't give you anything even close to what the "Highway Patrol Alert" does.Originally Posted by austinsevo
But the good news is, with a little work and research, you can program almost any scanner with the mobile extenders, simplex tac freqs, etc that are used by the Highway Patrol Alert and essentially have the same thing.
i just ordered the radioshack PRO-96, any suggestions where i could figure out how to program a highway patrol feature?
FInd all of the mobile extenders, simplex tac, car to car, etc etc freqs for your state. These are normally 5W instead of the 25W the mobile radios are, and the signal will travel for a much shorter range.
You have to pay attention: if any of these even break the squelch, then that means there might be a cop around....
If you want to know more about how this works, there are some more posts on here about it...
That's a good idea! That way if they go encrypted you can still detect them with a break in the squelch. The scanner would not be totally useless. You would have a "police radio detector" tuned to the repeater input frequencies.Originally Posted by jimbonzzz
I have a BCT-7 that I would be willing to part with. Does not have trunking though.

I found out through the course of our shoot that Ethan has a pet rat! I loved this because I grew up with pet rats, and everyone always looks at me like I am crazy when I tell them this! Seriously guys, if you kid wants a hamster or gunnie pig, do yourself a favor and get a rat instead! I promise it won't be like a scary NYC subway rat but instead a fun, smart, CUTE critter. We also had another thing in common, being that we are both middle children--which is widely known as the coolest position in the family-- I never met a middle child I didn't like and get along famously with ;) Thanks for braving the chilly waters of the Chattahoochee with me, Ethan!

Global Execs Bullish On U.S. – 2016 Views From C-Suite Study by A.T. Kearney
Our annual Views from the C-Suite study reflects the collective judgment of 400 C-level executives and board members from around the world on both the opportunities and the challenges in the global business operating environment (see sidebar: About the Study). The survey behind the study is organized into three sections. The first asks executives to determine the likelihood of a variety of discrete potential global developments. The second focuses on business operations, which we define as a firm's internal processes, people, and systems. The third focuses on the external environment, which we define as economic, political, social, and other external developments that affect businesses. We asked global executives about the opportunities and the challenges they face in both of these areas. Because the time frame of the majority of the questions put to the executives is just 12 months, this study focuses on the constellation of immediate issues absorbing the C-suite's attention.
This year's Views from the C-Suite survey was conducted in April 2016. In the headlines at the time—and certainly on the minds of C-suite executives—were, among other things, the leaked "Panama Papers," the International Monetary Fund's decision to lower its global growth forecast for 2016 from 3.4 to 3.2 percent, the swelling debate on the economic implications of a potential Brexit, and the continued appeal of Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders in the US presidential primary elections. Other major global events in April included the impending impeachment of Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff, the arrest by Belgian police of the man believed to have played a major role in the Brussels and Paris terrorist attacks, and the failure of OPEC to agree on a production cap. It was clearly a volatile time in the global operating environment, with many competing priorities on the minds of C-suite executives we surveyed.
Assessing the Likelihood of Global Developments
We asked global business executives to evaluate the likelihood of 10 different potential developments that could affect the global business operating environment over the next 12 months, and we found that global executives are deeply divided in their outlook. Six of the 10 possible global developments resulted in a nearly dead-even split (within the margin of error) on the likelihood that they would occur in the next 12 months.3 In contrast to last year's results, in which global executives' judgment was conclusive for all 10 developments, this year's results reflect the uncertainty of the international environment.
Such a dramatic split in outlook suggests that businesses may act with caution in the year ahead, delaying new investment or planned expansions and carefully monitoring developments. For instance, Moody's recently estimated that the US nonfinancial firms it rates are sitting on about $1.7 trillion in reserves, up 1.8 percent from the previous year.4 Despite this overall uncertainty, there are elements on which executives are more positive, suggesting some cautious optimism. For instance, global executives believe that terrorism is unlikely to increase further in the next 12 months and that the internal pressures in Europe are likely to decrease in the coming year.
We begin by presenting the development that garnered the strongest level of agreement among executives on whether or not it is likely to occur, and we end with the one where opinion is the most divided. Accompanying figures illustrate the distribution across each response on a scale from 1 (certain not to happen) to 10 (certain to happen). The graphs are color-coded red to represent an unfavorable outcome for the global business operating environment, and green to represent a favorable outcome.
Terrorist attacks are likely to decrease
Executives are most aligned on their assessment of the likelihood of terrorist attacks around the world: 59 percent believe an increase in terrorist attacks is unlikely (see figure 1). This is a notable departure from last year, when 82 percent of executives believed an increase in terrorist attacks to be likely. In other words, the percentage of executives concerned about increasing terrorist attacks is just half (41 percent) what it was last year. Perhaps executives believe that after terrorist attacks in Nigeria, Syria, Pakistan, France, Belgium, and elsewhere over the past year, the world has turned a corner in the offense-defense balance against such events.
The European Union will likely begin to strengthen
In a similarly optimistic vein, 57 percent of executives believe that political, economic, and social pressures in the European Union (EU) are likely to decrease over the next 12 months (see figure 2). This sentiment is strongest in the Americas, where 64 percent of respondents hold this view, compared to 52 percent in Europe and 53 percent in Asia. The weaker response from European executives is not surprising given the ongoing migration crisis, the rise of political extremism in the region, and the Brexit vote in the United Kingdom. Overall, however, respondents may feel encouraged by somewhat stronger economic growth, competitive euro exchange rates, and the European Central Bank (ECB) commitment to monetary policy stimulus.
Central banks will likely end negative interest rates and quantitative easing
A slim majority—56 percent—of executives believe that central banks in the main developed markets will normalize monetary policy in the next 12 months (see figure 3). Fully 72 percent of executives in last year's survey believed that the ECB's quantitative easing program would successfully revive the eurozone economy. While the jury may still be out on that outcome, it is clear that the US Federal Reserve has begun to restore normal monetary policies. A slight edge in favor of the optimistic camp may reflect confidence that the Federal Reserve will continue raising interest rates in the second half of 2016, and that the ECB and Bank of Japan may then follow suit, thus harmonizing global monetary policy.
Economic and financial volatility will probably lessen
Fifty-five percent of executives believe that economic and financial volatility will be lower in the coming 12 months than over the past year (see figure 4). This is in marked contrast to last year's survey, in which 82 percent of respondents thought financial volatility would increase over the coming 12-month period. Respondents from the Americas are less confident than the global average this year: only 48 percent believe economic and financial volatility will not increase over the next year. This may be due to the six-month high in US market volatility since August 2015, triggered in part by continued declining oil prices, uncertainty over Federal Reserve monetary policy plans, and China's currency devaluation and stock market volatility.
Territorial tensions between China and its neighbors are a wild card
Fifty-four percent of survey respondents agree that maritime tensions between China and its neighbors will decrease (see figure 5). Executives based in the Americas are the most optimistic, with 57 percent predicting a decrease in territorial disputes. Perhaps they believe the US "pivot" to Asia—the

"What workout leggings do you recommend?" is a frequently asked question so we decided to turn it into a blog post —> and try on a bajillion pairs of leggings to find the very best. Linley and I set off on an adventure a few weeks ago to find the best workout leggings on the market in all different price ranges. We hit up some of the most popular, top of the line athleisure stores (such as Lululeon and Athleta) as well as budget-friendly stores (such as Target and Old Navy) to hunt down a variety of amazing leggings perfect for all types of shoppers. We tried on almost every legging in every store and each chose 1 to talk about in this post.
Before I begin I wanted to note that we were not paid to write any of these reviews, so that all of this feedback is the 100% honest truth.
Before we just right in. I wanted to give you the low down of how we chose our favorites and least favorites. All of the leggings have been rated on a scale of 1-10, 1 being no beuno and 10 being bueno. Things we took into consideration include:
- fabric
- quality of craft
- fit
- price
- versatility
- stretch
Oh, and we put them to the test and actually worked out in them! We thought we'd get the best results if Linley and I both tried on a pair from each store because we have very different body types. Linley is petite (5'2″) and has a shorter torso and I have an athletic build (5'8″ on a good day) with an extremely long torso. Yes, torsos matter 😛
Notes from LinleyMY OTHER VIDEOS
If there's one thing I need when I'm working out, it is to feel comfortable. Overheating stinks and wearing a bra or pants that squeeze you in the wrong places can make for a miserable workout. I am 5′ 2″, with a large bust, and hips that are pretty wide for my size, so finding pants that fit my legs + hips tends to be an ordeal. On the hunt for the Best Workout Leggings, my goal was to find leggings that weren't too long, hugged my hips just right, and were breathable! Also, I have short legs and a short torso (which I love and I am very grateful for) but I have found that crop pants make me look even SHORTER! So, heads up. I tend to stick with long pants.
Gap Fit – Gfast Performance Cotton Colorblock Legging ($49.95)
This was my first very first pair of Gap Fit Pants and I just love their pattern. I don't own very many pant length leggings because usually they are too tight on my calf or bunch at the bottom because my legs are short; these hit perfectly at my ankle. The one thing I don't love about these pants is the fabric. They're very much so cotton so I do find they stretch a little bit after wearing them for a while. What I love about them is how trendy they look with the current fashion.
I give these leggings a 6/10 because fabric is important to me and they are my #5 pick.
Gap Fit – Blackout Gfast Mesh Panel Legging ($64.95)
This was also my first pair of Gap Workout pants and I absolutely love them. This mid-range workout pant is so incredibly soft, hits my ankle right where I like it, and I was surprised, but they are a mid-rise pant. I have to say, one of my favorite things about this pant is the design. It adds a subtle design without being too much. They are SO breathable and I feel like i can do anything in these pants – yoga, circuit training, coffee shop sitting, and everything in between. They also look great with tennis shoes OR boots.
I give these pants a 10/10 for being super comfortable for any occasion. They are my #2 pick.
Lululemon – High Times 7/8 Pant ($98.00)
For those that have followed me for a while, know that I am Lulu obsessed. They are the brand that introduced me to high-rise leggings and for that I am forever changed. I have the High Times 7/8 Pant in green, maroon, and black because this is my go-to pant for athleisure. Throw a pair of boots on and I'm out the door. While these are priced at a higher price point, they are worth every penny. The quality is insane and even after washing my maroon pair 50 times they are still like brand new! The high-rise fit is on point and they don't give even after a few wears!
I give these pants a 10/10 for quality and fit and the #2 spot in my lineup!
Lululemon – Wunder Under High-Rise Pant ($98.00)
Not only do LuluLemon's High-Rise Wunder Under Pants come in ridiculously adorable patterns, but they go high enough on my hips where I am comfortable no matter if I'm doing crunches or sitting in half pigeon. They are breathable and hit my ankle at the perfect place. Seriously, I have a couple pairs of these and I wear them to workout and throughout the day with boots. I recognize that these are the highest price point pant, but they are worth every penny. Also, keep your eyes peeled for sales at Lululemon, sometimes you score big and find a pair of Wunder Under's on sale!
I give these pants a 10/10 because they fit my body type, are great athletic AND athleisure leggings. They are my #1 pick.
Athleta – High Rise Chaturanga Tight ($59.99)
I have recently fallen in major love with Athleta. Ever since I realized that instructors get 30% off full price retail I knew I had to explore my options further. Turns out, Athleta is BOMB…especially in the athleisure department. Their High Rise Chaturanga Tights are my all time favorite, especially for yoga. I love the fit in the waist and that they are long enough to go over my heels (how I like to wear them). They're also great with a pair of boots on. They do stretch a tad in the waist, but other than that they hold pretty well throughout the bum and legs.
I rate these pants a 10/10 and gave them my #3 pick…VERY close behind my #2.
Athleta – Metro High Waisted Legging ($79.99)
Talk about the perfect athleisure workout pant, right here people. I love Athleta's Metro High Waisted Legging for day-to-day living. They are my go-to pant when I know I'm spending the day at Fit Foodie HQ and when I am going for an athletic look throughout the day. As you can tell, I am a HUGE fan of high rise pants and the fit of these pants are perfect. Not to mention they don't bunch AT ALL at my ankle. Though I love these pants, I usually don't wear them when I workout because they tend not to breath as much as I 'd like.
I give these pants a 7/10 because they are great athleisure pants, fit great, but aren't the most breathable pant for working out. They are my #4 pick.
Victoria Sport – Knockout High-Rise Capri ($66.50)
After taking recommendations from Instagram about where to shop for leggings, I knew we needed to go into Victoria's Secret. I was pleasantly surprised with what I found AND even found my new favorite pair of leggings! The Knockout High-Rise Capri is the shit and it comes in 3 different lengths. As you know, I'm a sucker for a good high-rise fit that keeps everything in snug. I gravitate towards thicker fabrics and really well made pieces of clothing. If you don't want to spend $100 on a pair of leggings, get these! I can't speak to how long they last because I've only had them for a month, but so far so good after a few workouts and washes.
I give these pants a 10/10 because I just love how they mold to my body, don't stretch, and their thickness. They are my #1 pick.
Victoria Sport – Knockout Sport Tight ($66.50)
Yes, these pants are absolutely adorable. Victoria Secret has a great selection of workout pants with sassy designs, to boot. I like how these pants look on me, but had a harder time with sizing at Victoria Secret. My body couldn't decide between x-small, small, or medium. They all fit a certain part of my body in the right place, but never the whole body.
I give these pants a 4/10 because it was hard for me (as a shorter + curvy person) to find pants that fit me just right! They were my #6 pick.
Old Navy – Mid-Rise Melange Compression Crop ($29.94)
Who woulda thunk Old Navy had adorable workout clothes? This place is a hidden gem for affordable workout gear and I'm so glad Instagram told us to go there! I am a sucker for a good deal and if you hit up Old Navy when the entire store is 50% off you can walk out of there with a brand new workout outfit for under $30! I loved these Mid-Rise Melange Compression Crops. They are a bit thinner in fabric, but super breathable. I feel like I can do the splits in them they are so soft and malleable.
#4 pick
Old Navy – High Rise Compression Legging ($29.94)
How FUN is the design on this pant? You won't miss me running down the street in these babies. They are a great, breathable pants and at this price point..you can't beat them! I have worn them to yoga and for circuit training. I found they were perfect for circuit training, but the lack of stretch in these pants made down-dog a bit harder for me (and I need all the help I can get in down dog lol).
I give these pants a 7/10 for their breathability and design. They were my #5 pick.
Target – Freedom Asymmetrical Capri ($24.99)
Can I just say that Target has picked up their workout gear game like WOAH. I wish I would have had all of these options when I was in college and poor! Out of all the pairs I tried on at Target, the Freedom Asymmetrical Capri was my favorite. They are priced very low at under $25 and you can definitely tell compared to all of the other leggings I tried on. What I liked about these pants was the mid-rise fit and capri length, however I feel like even after purchasing a small, they weren't tight enough. I'm weird about tightness and there's nothing worse than saggy workout leggings.
I give these leggings a 4/10 and fabric and fit and ranked them last, #7, out of the bunch.
Target – Cold Weather Run Tights ($20.98)
I hadn't bought workout pants at Target for years. I was pleasantly surprised when I tried on these Cold Weather Run Tights. They are soft, the high-rise waist fits me perfectly, and I love the design. I have worn these for yoga, circuit training, winter running, and out and about. They were great for every occasion. It is winter in MN and these are cold weather pants, but at the same time they kept me warm, I didn't overheat in them.
I give these a 8/10 for being so versatile at such a low price point. They were my #3 pick.
So there you have it my friends! I hope we helped you hunt down some new amazing workout leggings without the hassle of having to try them on all. Let us know in the comments below which pair are your favorites…even if we didn't cover them in this post!

Healthcare professionals need to spend time focusing on patient care, not technology. They need mission-critical applications to just work — quickly and reliably. Unfortunately, IT wellness, so to speak, faces a new and growing threat, one that can cripple entire healthcare organizations, impact patient care, and lead to costly system repairs. That threat is ransomware and related malware.
These vicious cyberattacks show no signs of diminishing. In fact, ransomware has become so pervasive a threat the U.S. Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights has issued guidelines related to HIPAA to help healthcare organizations understand ransomware and what has to be done to prevent it. One of the guidelines is to limit user access to EHRs. In the public discussion following the news, an important point was made: ransomware gets in through people, not through operating systems. All the guidelines in the world will not prevent an employee accidentally opening a phishing email or clicking through a link and enabling a destructive malware or ransomware attack.
What can be done to prevent ransomware? In the HIPAA guidelines, one of the recommendations is more user training, which is certainly a good practice. However, to provide a more consistent and thorough defense against ransomware, healthcare organizations need to do a wellness checkup of their security infrastructure to determine whether they have made full use of the technology that can help prevent these costly attacks. Areas of examination should include the endpoint, the user level, where ransomware attacks occur, and the security implications of Windows 10 migration.
As an example, the Boston Public Health Commission (BPHC), the country's oldest public health department, has begun transitioning to application virtualization and profile virtualization for efficiency and cost savings as their existing desktops have become obsolete. With a small staff, 31 locations, and 1,200 desktops, virtualization was the answer to modernization. While moving to the VDI environment, IT Director Jeff Beers noted they have seen 10 to 15 computers hit with ransomware. The VDI environment escaped the first attack, but it's possible the next ransomware attacks will be more critical and widespread.
Here are some of the ransomware and malware preventive medicine healthcare IT executives are moving toward deploying to strengthen security.
As professionals work on different devices, user context looks at where the individual is working, how they are working and what they're working on, to determine which applications they can execute.
For healthcare organizations with compliance pressures, it's important to put a patch strategy in place so that IT can patch the OS and make sure it's running the latest version, as well as patch the applications to make sure they're running at the correct levels.
Healthcare professionals often hear doctors talk about tap, turn and treat. They want a usable and effectively-organized screen, along with fast-loading images and information. They need to be able to turn to the patient and start treating them without delays or technical difficulties.
In moving towards a virtualized environment, healthcare organizations need to provide this level of efficiency, so there is no room for ransomware or malware attacks disrupting patient care. By putting in place trusted ownership, privilege controls and planning for the impact of Windows 10 updates, healthcare IT can be ahead of the game in protecting the security of the organization's vital activities.

By DONALD JANSON, Special to the New York Times
Published: February 16, 1986
MAYS LANDING, N.J., Feb. 14— The former mistress of a prominent Toms River insurance broker testified this week that he was heavily in debt, that he had told her the insurance on his wife would cover the debt if he could ''get rid of her'' and that he had asked her whom he could get to kill her.
The witness, Sarann Kraushaar, 44 years old, the wife of a Toms River automobile dealer, told a Superior Court jury here Thursday about her 14-month affair with the broker, Robert O. Marshall, 46. Mrs. Kraushaar, a former high school vice principal, is to be cross-examined Tuesday in the murder trial of Mr. Marshall and Larry N. Thompson, a 42-year-old mechanic and cook from Fairview-Alpha, La.
Mr. Marshall is accused of hiring Mr. Thompson and Billy Wayne McKinnon, of Greenwood, La., to kill his wife so he could collect $1.5 million in life insurance, pay off more than $300,000 in debts and continue his affair with Mrs. Kraushaar. Mr. Thompson is charged with killing Mr. Marshall's wife, Maria, 42, with Mr. McKinnon's Colt .45-caliber pistol on Sept. 7, 1984, in a picnic area on the Garden State Parkway, after Mr. McKinnon had dropped him off there to wait till the Marshalls arrived on the way home after a night of gambling in Atlantic City.
Mr. McKinnon has made a plea-bargaining agreement that would limit his sentence to a maximum of five years in prison. He testified last week that the conspiracy called for Mr. Marshall to stop at the picnic area at Oyster Creek and be knocked out and robbed while checking a tire. He said Mr. Marshall was to tell the police that when he regained consciousness, his money was missing and his wife had been killed.
Mr. Marshall did give that explanation to the authorities. Mrs. Kraushaar said that he had told her the same thing and that at first she had believed him.
She testified that about 10 months before the murder, Mr. Marshall had told her, in discussing his wife, ''I swear if there was a way that I could either do away with or get rid of her, I would.''
It was then, Mrs. Kraushaar said, that Mr. Marshall asked her if she knew of anyone who would do the killing. She said she told him such violence was ''absurd'' and that she would not countenance it, despite Mr. Marshall's comment that ''if she was not around, the insurance money would definitely take care of the debts.''
She said she continued the 14-month affair for 18 days after the murder, till she could no longer accept Mr. Marshall's answers to her questions about his Louisiana associations.
Mrs. Kraushaar said that two weeks after the murder she was at Mr. Marshall's home when authorities confronted him with the names and pictures of Mr. McKinnon and James E. Davis of Sibley, La., and that Mr. Marshall denied knowing them.
Two days later, she said, she and Mr. Marshall returned to a condominium Mrs. Kraushaar owned in Ortley Beach, after a walk on a nearby beach, and he had a message on her telephone-answering machine from his eldest son, Robert Jr., 20. The call relayed a number from Louisiana that the son had taken at the Marshall home.
Mr. McKinnon, 43, testified that it was he who had called Mr. Marshall. He also testified that he had used the name of Mr. Davis, a friend, as an alias in dealing with Mr. Marshall. Mr. Davis was originally arrested and indicted on conspiracy charges, which were dropped. He became a material witness and testified that he picked up $5,500 that Mr. Marshall had sent to Mr. McKinnon in Shreveport, La.
Mrs. Kraushaar acknowledged that before the murder she had met Mr. Marshall at motels and other places up to three times a week. She said they had planned to leave their spouses and rent a house in Barnegat. The murder stopped the plans, she said. After the publicity, Mrs. Kraushaar testified, she and her husband, Stanley, moved to the Ortley Beach condo, and she quit as vice principal at the Pinelands Regional High School in Tuckerton.
Executives from eight insurance companies testified Friday that in the year before the killing, Mr. Marshall took out insurance on his wife totaling $1.25 million.

The founder of the Donbass volunteer battalion, Verkhovna Rada member, Semen Semenchenko is preparing a law that will strip Ukrainian citizenship from the population of Donbass, just like in Latvia. During the war on the Southeast, this not the first attempt of this kind: the Baltic experience is frequently remembered in Ukraine, when discussing repressions for the population of the unrelenting region in case that they will achieve a complete and decisive victory.
"Out of 7 million voters in Crimea, Sevastopol, Donetsk and Lugansk regions, only 4 million came in to vote in previous elections. However, during the latest elections, only 200 thousand people from Donetsk and Lugansk regions, with a small part of Crimeans, managed to vote in other parts of the country. This negative force majeure nevertheless was beneficial to Ukraine in order to cut ties from its post-Soviet past almost as much as the many months of the Euromaidan. Ukraine accidentally played the banned card, which was previously used only by Latvia and Estonia. These countries took the right to vote from the Soviet nostalgia-ridden Russian-speaking minority in order to make the Euro-Atlantic integration easier" wrote Vyacheslav Sadovnichy of UA.info, an influential Ukrainian media outlet.
The article was the perfect example of the initial planting of the unthinkable and insane idea into the social consciousness as part of the Overton window technique – because for 25 years of post-Soviet development Ukrainians never would have thought that people disagreeing with the political course might be stripped of citizenship, like in the Baltics.
And the author of the article is not even suggesting anything like that, on the contrary, he is warning off the temptation of taking the shortcut of stripping voting rights in order to go the "European" way. But the conclusion made the article is quite the opposite: it turns out that in order to cast aside the post-Soviet past and make the European choice, Ukraine needs to implement electoral censes, strip political rights and choose the path of discrimination towards the "wrong" kind of people.
"I hope we all understand that everyone who voted on the DNR referendum must be stripped of their voting rights and their right to run for office in national and local elections. We must start a policy of non-citizenship like in the Baltics in order to solve the "vatnik electorate" problem." stated a few months later by Ukrainian political scientist and Hvylya editor-in-chief Yuri Romanenko, being more clear on the subject and without any discussion of whether it was acceptable or not.
"Gentlemen, I think it is time to think of citizenship not as a given, but as a privilege. And somebody still has to do a great deal to earn this privilege," as was said a few months later by the host of the Ukrainian "Fifth Channel", which is owned by Petro Poroshenko. He was opening a political talk show with a discussion on the topic on whether they should follow the Baltic example and take the Ukrainian passports away from the rebelling Donbass people.
This proposition seems to have sparked the interest of the founder and commander of the Donbass volunteer battalion and Verkhovna Rada member Semen Semenchenko, who stated "I like this idea, we should work on the legal side of this question." There, in the studio, Semechenko said he would be willing to prepare the corresponding legal draft.
This week it turned out that the former battalion commander and acting parliament member Semenchenko was not just babbling. The photographers working in the Rada have taken pictures of his schedule. Among other things, on 1 July Semenchenko planned to "Bring up the law of stripping away citizenship (like in Latvia)" Semenchenko has yet to comment on the "leak", but he doesn't have to: he already spoke out in favor of the non-citizen institute and promised to make the legal draft, why should he deny it?
So all of this is building into a straight logical chain.
First the planting of the issue as part of media musings, then the statements by influential publicly known experts, then whole TV shows dedicated to the possibility of stripping away the citizenship of the Donbass people, then a legal draft. Even if this logical chain is incidental and there is no coordinated central plan, then this means only that the idea of using the Baltic experience and taking away the Donbass people citizenship is spreading like a virus in Ukrainian political and expert communities.
Because as soon Ukrainian politicians, journalists, bloggers and other "patriots" get the feeling that they are winning the war on the East, then begins the competition of ideas on how to better enact a Vae victis principle (woe to the vanquished). By the way, this also proved that Ukrainian "patriots" don't believe in their own mythology on a subconscious level, the myth that Donbass was always for Ukraine and it is not a civil war, but just Putin's hybrid war against the Ukrainian people, who sent his "terrorists" to Donetsk and Lugansk. If that is so, then why is all (!) of the Donbass population, which is supposedly pro-Ukrainian and suffering in occupation, is being branded as "vatniks", "downbass" and "Colorado beetles"? It was already proposed sending them to filtration camps, populating their lands with racially-pure Western Ukrainians, they proposed just killing them, for heaven's sake.
Chances are high that if the Ukrainian hawks had a chance to execute their animal instincts unpunished, then they would have. But here is the catch: how would they kill all of the "unneeded" people there after they restore their rule in Donbass if they are such progressive Europeans? And even though they would always find a justification for themselves, they would still be left with the question: what would the "Europe-minded Ukrainians" think? (They are not even thinking about Russia: it is assumed that if Ukraine wins the war completely, then Russia would never again interfere in their affairs). Even if the Europeans will close their eyes as they have before, they will still start avoiding Ukrainians after this. They avoid them even now, despite their words of support: they keep the borders closed, getting a visa is not becoming easier, but more difficult. And if they start building filtration camps…
This is why the Ukrainian politics is close to the conclusion that the non-citizen institute like in the Baltics is the optimal solution to this task. Latvia and Estonia are NATO members, EU members and no one has barred them from enlightened Europe for the non-citizens, on the contrary: they were taken into the European Union with non-citizens.
For the radically-minded Ukrainians the Baltics are the paragon of post-Soviet development. That is how Ukraine should have acted since 1991 in their eyes. The comparison with the Baltics is also frequently used to justify the events in Ukraine today. Destruction of the economy? What of it – the Latvians even literally scrapped factories, but now they are real Europe. Destroying monuments of Lenin? And what of it – this is not vandalism: Lithuanians took all of them to a park near Vilnius, but they are European people. Strip the citizenship from all of the "vatniks"? And what of it – Latvia and Estonia stripped Russians of their citizenship so they wouldn't stop them from entering Europe, and now they are Europe.
If you tell such a Ukrainian that his country is following in the Baltics footsteps, it will be a compliment to him. So "Baltization" has no negative connotation for a Ukrainian: the Baltics are prospering, right? And the Baltics are Europe. If you tell him that both of those are lies, he would never believe you.
So the idea of borrowing the non-citizen institute from Latvia and Estonia is gaining weight in Ukraine's political and expert circles: we are going to Europe after all, and Latvia and Estonia – they are European countries, yes?
But in order to borrow the Latvian and Estonia experience, the newfangled "Europeans" must first win the war. And judging by Semenchenko's legal draft, Kiev is once again under the impression that they are winning. Is it not too early for that?
Translation by Pavel Shamshiev.

Today I attended one of today's Jam Sessions, and I noticed many Jammers were dancing on the stage instead of watching from below.
It ended up getting to the point where there were many lights from above the stage. This rarely happens, usually only at the best Jam Sessions, so I therefore conclude this as a successful Jam Session.

My debut novel, The Imagination Box, features a talking finger monkey called Phil. So far, he appears to be a crowd pleaser and is by far the most remarked upon aspect of the book.
Animal companions do have a real knack of stealing the limelight. From noble horses to dire wolves, from great lions to honey-addict bears, readers of all ages love a friendly critter. So, in no particular order, here are 10 fantastical pets in children's literature. (Some of these will be more pets than fantastical and vice versa.)
1. Cheshire Cat, from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
In her extraordinarily influential journey down the rabbit hole, Alice encounters all sorts of anthropomorphic animal madness. However it's the Cheshire Cat – which she first meets in the Duchess's kitchen amid an unsettling, dreamy scene involving a pig baby hybrid – that fits most neatly into the list. Getting a straight answer out of anyone in Wonderland isn't easy, but this elusive feline acts particularly abstruse, donning the smuggest grin imaginable the whole time. So smug that it actually sticks around even when the rest of its body has turned invisible.
2. The Fish, from The Cat in the Hat by Dr Seuss
In this rhyming classic a couple of kids are just chilling out on a rainy day when this sociopathic cat arrives at their house and trashes the place. Their sensible pet fish susses, early on, that this eccentric, borderline sinister intruder is probably bad news. Turns out though, despite old Fishy's scepticism, the cat is all right and cleans everything up. Moral: forgive burglars?
3. Toothless, from How to Train Your Dragon by Cressida Cowell
Imagine having a pet dragon. Go on. It'd be carnage. Unless, of course, it was a more amiable flavour of dragon which was, as the name suggests, susceptible to training. Slender Berk resident Hiccup is tasked with capturing one of these beasts as part of a dangerous tradition and, after a bit work, manages to save the village from less friendly forces. The books have been popularised in recent years by a dramatically altered, yet successful, DreamWorks film of the same name.
4. Alfie, from Esio Trot by Roald Dahl
There's both deception and shelled reptiles in this story. Alfie's a little tortoise who won't grow and, inadvertently, becomes somewhat of a matchmaker. Elderly neighbour-cum-charlatan, Mr Hoppy, takes quite a fancy to Alfie's owner, Mrs Silver, so logically steals the tortoise and replaces it with incrementally larger ones to make it seem as though he is growing, as part of a complex scam to win her affection. This is one of Dahl's more charming, grounded tales with typically fun subversion of basic morality. Lying is fine, as long as it's extremely elaborate. Pretty sure that's the moral here.
5. Hedwig, from the Harry Potter series by JK Rowling
This one is a classic fantastical pet. Ticks every box. Harry's owl, along with all the other Hogwarts lore, has cemented itself in human consciousness probably forever. As well as being a loyal companion, Hedwig also provides Harry with a competent mailing service. A bit like Amazon Prime, only with less magic.
6. Prince Amir of Kinjan, from the What-a-Mess series by Frank Muir
This grotty Afghan puppy is colloquially known as 'What-a-Mess' because he's just disgusting. Also, he has a little duck on his head the whole time. I've added this to the list because the image of him is oddly welded into my subconscious, having read it on repeat when I was a small child.
7. Nana, from Peter Pan by JM Barrie
Peter Pan has a pretty good set-up – eternal youth, the ability to fly and some proper cool Lost Boy mates. Pet dog Nana might not have the calibre of magic Peter's grown accustomed to, but she more than makes up for it with raw domestic aptitude.
8. Snowy, from The Adventures of Tintin by Hergé
Don't let his simple, gormless face fool you – this little fox terrier knows what's what. Best buddy to Tintin, Snowy is often the voice of reason as he's submitted to a frankly cruel series of outlandish exploits. However, like a good companion should, he's usually well placed to offer a helping hand (paw) when it's needed.
9. The Mouse, from The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson
With no obvious owner, it could be argued that the mouse isn't a pet per se. But people keep mice as pets so, given the right circumstances, this tiny guy could meet the criteria. He's made the list because, as someone with young relatives, I can testify that The Gruffalo is special, even beyond its prevalence. In a nutshell, as an underdog, the mouse has to invent a monster to avoid getting eaten. It turns out though, despite his resounding comments on the contrary, there actually is such a thing as a Gruffalo. Did you know it's based on the far more synoptically titled Chinese fable, The Fox Borrows the Tiger's Terror? You do now.
10. Richard Parker, from Life of Pi by Yann Martel
Maybe Booker-winning Life of Pi isn't a "children's book". But I like it and see no reason why a child couldn't read it so it is, de facto, a children's book. Take that, categories. After the ship containing all the animals from his family's zoo sinks, our hero Pi ends up in a serious pickle. He's stuck at sea on a cramped life boat with, among other creatures, a massive Bengal tiger called Richard Parker. While far from an ideal scenario, Pi and Parker somehow make it work and eventually get to dry land. Or maybe none of that happens. Maybe the tiger is, in fact, pure fantasy...

| Kayla chapter 24 . 7/1/2016
I LOVED the Ino & Shikamaru love session. Did NOT see that coming, at all! I honestly thought it was going to be her & Sai the more I read! Nice little twist! Lol. Thanks for a great sorry so far, by the way. Not many ones, that I've found, have been a good action, love/lemon story that I've actually enjoyed! & I love how you've kept the personalities pretty much the same with every character! Alot of ones I start reading, they change the characters WHOLE personality, & it just makes me have a different outlook on the character in the anime!
| Shikaino-Nejiten chapter 29 . 5/31/2016
I enjoyed the story! Good job but dont you think ino's way too OC. The girl might be girly but she's not some kind of raging fan girl in the middle of the battle field or stupid tbh. But never the less, it was enjoyable.
| Samsterdahamster chapter 29 . 3/25/2016
could you please change the sasusaku in your summary to narusasu? it's confusing.
| thefucker chapter 30 . 4/21/2015
| Guest chapter 1 . 6/14/2014
I regret reading your story. You are one sick fuck! I had no idea you were into gay stuff. If I knew that I would have never read this! I'm a fan of Sasuke and Naruto as best friends. But not that disgusting sasunaru yaoi shit!
| Guest chapter 29 . 12/30/2013
Hello i loved your story keep writing you are very good :) i thought the ending was ok but overall it was amazing
| NuraHikari chapter 30 . 9/23/2013
I really like the story, and was really looking forward to a sequel, but I understand your reasons not to post it.
| buttermeup chapter 12 . 7/6/2013
Im sad that Sakura just left Naruto there but I love how Sasuke is in this story!
| buttermeup chapter 1 . 7/5/2013
Great start! ! Love it!
| Chizi chapter 29 . 11/12/2012
U my friend are the most awesome story teller in the world please write more and chat with me if you need any help ok I have written a book about Naruto story but I haven't put lemon in it so maybe you can help complete my book
| Eve-the-Great chapter 2 . 8/26/2011
I think that Sakura would be able to dodge all the attacks that were thrown on her because in the anime, when she was training with Tsunade, Tsunade taught Sakura toevade attacks. I know you needed Sakura to get attacked for the sake of the plot, but i,m just pointing out something that could be fixed in your future fanfics.
| Eve-the-Great chapter 1 . 8/25/2011
Me likey this story so far
| Brandi.N chapter 1 . 8/20/2011
YAY! I love Sakura with long hair! but everyone makes it neck length :P

Ranching with Wolves
Defenders expands its coexistence project in the Rockies
© Defenders of Wildlife
For nearly a decade, Mike Stevens has been running sheep through the Sawtooth Mountains of central Idaho. As a managing member and past president of Lava Lake Lamb, Stevens' goal is to fatten lambs and ewes on the forbs, grasses and wildflowers that grow there during lush summer months. But he's also responsible for making sure that his free-ranging livestock operation is compatible with conserving wildlife, especially gray wolves.
"Lava Lake is one of the best examples we have of how ranchers can help limit conflict with wolves, and Mike has been a terrific ambassador," says Suzanne Stone, Defenders' Northern Rockies representative. Her voice carries softly over the gurgling of Eagle Creek, interrupted occasionally by the bleats of some 2,200 sheep tucked into a sagebrush meadow behind her. More than 20 scientists from around the world gathered here in June to learn more from Stone and Stevens about the Wood River Wolf Project.
Since 2008, Defenders' signature wolf coexistence project has helped sheep producers like Lava Lake take proactive steps to protect their flocks from wolves and other native wildlife. Over the last four years, wolves killed fewer than two dozen sheep in an area where more than 10,000 sheep pass through each summer. By helping herders deploy nonlethal deterrents, such as guard dogs and brightly colored flags known as fladry, project partners have been able to keep livestock losses to a minimum.
"It's pretty amazing what we've been able to accomplish with just a few simple tools," says Stone. "A few guard dogs, a line of fladry and a vigilant herder are usually all it takes to keep both sheep and wolves alive and out of trouble."
Now Stone is hoping to expand the project's reach. In previous years, Defenders hired a team of field technicians to spend the summer months following bands of sheep, which meant spending days at a time hiking over steep terrain in remote and forested backcountry. They would monitor wolf activity using radio telemetry, help the herders set up fladry, and frequently sleep beside bands of sheep, waking every hour to shine bright lights, fire a starter pistol or sound an air horn to keep wolves away.
The model is proving highly effective. But field techs cover just so much ground and can only keep an eye on one flock at a time. To cover the entire county—let alone other areas across the Northern Rockies—will take the cooperation of landowners and state and federal wildlife agencies.
"We don't have the funding to hire a field technician for every rancher that wants our help," says Stone. "To reach more people in more areas, we need our entire crew available on a daily basis, not camped out in the wilderness for days on end."
Instead, the Wood River team is now offering free consultations to any ranchers in the county looking for advice on how to use the livestock-protecting deterrents. Defenders has also set up a dedicated hotline for ranchers who want immediate assistance if they suspect wolves are nearby and is offering training for state and federal wildlife managers.
Once they arrive on the scene, technicians conduct a thorough site analysis to assess potential risks to livestock, then they recommend the best nonlethal tool for preventing conflict. Recommendations are tailored to the type of livestock operation, the topography of the surrounding landscape, and the tools already available to the rancher.
"Every situation is unique, so we try to customize our solutions to each rancher's specific needs," says Stone. For example, existing fencing can be used to hang electrified "turbo-fladry" quickly and effectively, pregnant ewes can be brought inside to give birth to their lambs, and livestock guarding dogs can be deployed to help watch at night when sheep are most vulnerable to attack.
With fewer conflicts, ranchers are becoming more tolerant of wolves and may allow more packs to continue to thrive in areas where grazing occurs.
"We're trying to engage as many ranchers as we can," says Stone. "Ultimately, the fate of wolves may rest in their hands. Safeguarding livestock means more wolves can survive on the landscape."

Selecting the Appropriate Accounting Software for Starting Your Business
The perks of establishing a business may be as confusing as the sophistication of the process. Cash flow monitoring and accounting are facets of a business that may make you comprehend how hard it is to plunge into a business without due groundwork. You have two selections: contract a group of accounting professionals to do these jobs, or hire one or two accountants to operate with you through an accounting software. Remember that you are merely beginning a business and employing a huge team may not deliver financial benefits.
Employing an accounting software in your company helps save time and money. In paper-based accounting, there's a propensity to key in a customer's personal info over and over again in the involved transactions.

In deciding on the accounting software for your business, there are a variety of things you should consider. One is the compatibility of the accounting software with your business operating system. Make a list of the components you prefer depending on on the common deals you carry out in your business. The software should handle standard accounting transactions, like inventory management, sales tracking, business tax reporting, and payroll.
There are several accounting software products that are industry-specific. Before buying one, ensure that the operations of the software suit the routines your business follows. Several accounting software products, like Peachtree Quantum 2012, are flexible and customizable, allowing them to adapt to your business requirements. Nonetheless, you can first go for a software product that carries out standard operations since your company is just starting. As your business grows, you can opt for a merchandise that can run in a grander scope.
When updating your accounting software, you should deal with the downtime that typically develops with it. This is important so the program can operate smoothly. Several accounting software products, particularly the more advanced kinds, need complicated installation before they can work efficiently. Fortunately, other software products like Peachtree Quantum 2012 are also tailored to conform to the system's upgrades. They automatically update to manage your business's growing accounting needs.
One of the benefits of beginning a business these days is information is easy to find. For example, through the Internet, you can find out about diverse accounting software products that can promote your company's survival in the market. You can also discover about the reaction of people who already used accounting software like Peachtree Quantum 2012 in their new company. All these can help you make a wise investment.
