The Party of European Socialists (PES) is a European political party, which brings together
Socialist, Social Democratic, Democratic and Labour Parties of the European Union. There are
32 full member parties from the 28 EU member and Norway. In addition, there are eleven
associate and ten observer parties. Our office is based in Brussels.
The European Union must carry the universal principles of democracy, peace and respect for
human rights, including women's and children's rights. In a globalised and ever changing world,
with conflicts and growing inequalities, Europe must be a global player. We must build strong
alliances to respond to common challenges. We want Europe to have a strong voice and the
proper tools to lead in promoting peace, democracy, and shared prosperity throughout the
world. Trade and investment is needed to help the development of societies and economies

of the Party of European Socialists. We are an advocate for policy coherence for development
and for making the Millennium Development Goals and the UN post 2015 agenda a success. We

promoted. However, more attention should be given to the quality of jobs, decent work and a
fair distribution of revenue. Together with international partners such as the Progressive
Alliance and SOLIDAR we are engaged in a decent jobs campaign to raise awareness through
common initiatives and conferences.

international partners will organize several events, conferences and exchanges on best
practices in order to prepare common positions and underline the urgency. the PES will
elaborate a coordinated strategy with member parties and organisations, taking into account
the FEPS research programme on TTIP, which has been launched with SOLIDAR, Policy
Network, Renner Institute and Jean Jaurès Foundation.

and Development and the meetings of the PES development network. And will support relations
with international partners of the PES such as the Global Progressive Forum (GPF), the
Progressive Alliance (PA), Socialist International (SI) and SOLIDAR. The position has a policy as
well as an organisational component.

OneVoice Stakes Its Claim as Peace Movement of Israeli Mainstream
OneVoice, the grassroots movement that "aims to amplify the voice of Israeli and Palestinian moderates," has run many an interesting event since its establishment in 2002. Last week it ran one of the most innovative to date — a discussion, held in the West Bank settlement of Ariel, with students on prospects for a two-state solution. This was followed on Tuesday with an event that cemented OneVoice's emerging reputation as the peace organization that is reaching the Israeli mainstream — a discussion on the future of the two-state solution at Tel Aviv University, headlined by Kadima leader Tzipi Livni.
The Tel Aviv event provided an interesting insight in to the sharp differences between Livni and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, even since the latter has embraced the two-state solution. The big bone of contention, it was clear from Livni's comments, is Netanyahu's idea of "economic peace." Livni claimed that "those politicians who thought that the world would accept an 'economic peace' but not the real thing are finding out that no such thing exists." She added:

The ABC's of SBE: RuleStream platform extends AutoCAD integration
Standards-based engineering (SBE) solutions specialist RuleStream says a new extension to augument AutoCAD software integration stands to benefit users spanning sales, engineering, and manufacturing operations by capturing engineering knowledge and using it to automate key business processes across the enterprise.
RuleStream , a provider of standards-based engineering (SBE) solutions that capture, manage, and reuse engineering knowledge, is using the RealDWG engine from Autodesk to augment integration of AutoCAD software.
With this extension to RuleStream's current AutoCAD integration, AutoCAD software users can benefit from RuleStream's comprehensive approach to knowledge management—spanning sales, engineering and manufacturing operations. By capturing engineering knowledge and using it to automate key business processes across the enterprise, RuleStream's clients have reduced internal operating expenses, shortened lead times, increased sales win rates and increased overall profitability.
Integration with AutoCAD software also will help custom and complex product manufacturers respond to customer-specific orders more rapidly.
Developing on the RealDWG platform enhances RuleStream's ability to serve companies that use AutoCAD software as their primary CAD system, or otherwise need to generate 2D drawings or 3D models as part of their sales quotation and order fulfillment process. With RealDWG, design rules captured within RuleStream will be able to automatically:
• Generate native AutoCAD documents that are fully compliant with Autodesk's popular DWG file format;
• Generate fully associative 2D drawings;
• Generate 3D models; and
• Leverage the reusability of AutoCAD software dynamic blocks.
"This partnership is a big win for the manufacturing customer," says Eric Stover, product line manager at Autodesk. "With the integration of RealDWG into RuleStream's SBE Enterprise software suite, the generation of engineering data has never been easier. Whether you're required to produce 3D models or 2D engineering data, RuleStream and Autodesk provide an unbeatable solution for your engineering needs."

Annual Salary Survey
Before the calendar turned, 2016 already had the makings of a pivotal year for manufacturing, and for the world.
There were the big events for the year, including the United States as Partner Country at Hannover Messe in April and the 2016 International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago in September. There's also the matter of the U.S. presidential elections in November, which promise to shape policy in manufacturing for years to come.
But the year started with global economic turmoil, as a slowdown in Chinese manufacturing triggered a worldwide stock hiccup that sent values plummeting. The continued plunge in world oil prices has resulted in a slowdown in exploration and, by extension, the manufacture of exploration equipment.

Central Tower is a stage in Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion and the console version of Tekken 6. This is the stage where NANCY-MI847J is fought in the Arcade mode of Tekken 6. This stage appears to be connected with the Mishima Zaibatsu, as "Mishima Industries" is written on a part of the stage and it is an elevator.
Background Music
- This stage cannot be selected in any way possible besides facing NANCY-MI847J in Arcade Mode.
- The Tekken 6 E3 2009 Trailer displays several normal battles inside this arena, meaning that it was originally meant to be included as a normal battle stage, but was cut early during development.
- Jin's stage is possibly on top of this stage.
- In the PlayStation Portable version, this stage is available via cheat code and normal fights can be played.
- In Scenario Campaign Mode, Nina Williams is fought here.

"Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues" arrives in theaters following an endless promotional campaign that has seen Will Ferrell as Ron Burgundy starring in everything from Dodge Durango commercials to North Dakota news broadcasts.
That relentless push followed years of stops, starts and speculation concerning this sequel to Ferrell and Adam McKay's 2004 hit about an incompetent, sexist '70s news team.
Plus, Ferrell has spent a good chunk of the past decade playing variations of Burgundy, in everything from "Talladega Nights" to "Blades of Glory."
In short, there's a strong risk of oversaturation, even for the most ardent Burgundy fans.
Fortunately, the movie reunites Ferrell with Paul Rudd, Steve Carell and David Koechner, and their improv-heavy chemistry hasn't missed a beat. They fully embrace the absurdity, the profound cluelessness, that is at the heart of this franchise, imbuing the nonsensical dialogue and comic scenarios with such fervor that there's still life left in Burgundy's world.
It's the early '80s and Ron, Brian Fantana (Rudd), Brick Tamland (Carell) and Champ Kind (Koechner) are recruited to join the New York City-based GNN, the first 24-hour news network. The format is ideal for Burgundy: He's not a gifted journalist or an especially self-aware person, but if there's one thing he understands it's how to give the people what they want.
In this case, that means American propaganda, car chases, home runs and all the other staples of modern news media at the expense of serious reporting.
"Anchorman 2" trades the first film's satire of male chauvinism, conveyed through a story that unfolded in a newsroom but could have happened anywhere, for a more specific target. Obviously, this isn't "Broadcast News" or "The Newsroom"; the movie is gentle and exceedingly broad in targeting the innocuous stupidity of a culture that demands an endless stream of information. Many audiences will miss the larger ideas completely, being too distracted by the comic non-sequiturs, inspired bits of physical humor and astounding amount of celebrity cameos.
Look, funny is funny. The movie can be enjoyed superficially -- the slow-motion RV crash in which a superfluous bowling ball and scorpion come into play is a highlight. And it can be appreciated on a (slightly) deeper level. What more do you want?
Directed by Adam McKay
Starring Will Ferrell, Christina Applegate, Paul Rudd, Steve Carell
Rated PG-13

Paul H. O'Neill (b.1935) was appointed the 72nd Secretary of the Treasury Department in 2001 by President George W. Bush. O'Neill started his career in government service under President Kennedy and continued working under Presidents Johnson, Nixon and Ford. Under the former administrations he acted as a computer systems analyst from 1961-1967 (Ford) in the U.S. Veterans Administration and as staff member/Deputy Director of the Office Management and Budget (OMB) from 1967-1977. After working with the OMB he left the Government in order to pursue business interests in the private sector. Secretary O'Neill came to the Treasury Department with several years of experience as the Chairman and CEO of aluminum giant Alcoa. During this time O'Neill managed a corporation of more than 140,000 employees world wide.
Sec Paul H. O'NeillJohn Howard Sanden Oil on canvas200357 1/2 x 51 1/16 x 3"P.2004.2
Months after O'Neill was appointed Treasury Secretary, the country faced the most horrific terrorist attacks in its history, 9/11 (September 11, 2001). The events surrounding 9/11 precipitated a sudden downturn in U.S. economic growth, closely tied to economic uncertainty worldwide. Secretary O'Neill helped restore confidence in the economy by vowing to eliminate the funding source of terrorist attacks which continually threatened America's peace and prosperity.
Through his Treasury tenure, Secretary O'Neill utilized the Department's resources to fight terrorist financing. He worked personally and closely with Middle Eastern countries in order to stop money laundering and fraud in charitable organizations. He was also instrumental in setting up a special task force within the Department whose avowed purpose was to combat terrorist finance. This initiative ultimately led to the creation of the Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence.
In addition to the fight against terrorism, Secretary O'Neill was an outspoken critic on the complexity of the Nation's tax code. He believed the code's complexity was inhibiting personal as well as corporate growth in America and became one of the Administration's leading advocates for its change.
As a testament to Secretary O'Neill's work ethic and dedication to public service, he has been awarded many honorary doctorates over the years from various universities. He has also served on a wide variety of committees including the American Red Cross, Committee for Economic Development, Joint Council on Economic Education, Institute for International Economics, and National Leadership Commission on Health Care.
Secretary Paul H. O'Neill resigned from the Treasury Department on December 6, 2002.
John Howard Sanden was born in Austin, Texas, in 1935. After graduating from the Minneapolis School of Art, he embarked on a highly successful career as an illustrator for leading magazines and book publishers. He later decided to concentrate on portraiture and has since become one of America�s important portrait artists. Mr. Sanden is a member of the faculty of the Arts Students League of New York. He has also organized and hosted many portrait seminars, attracting the Nation's "up and coming" portrait artists. Mr. Sanden is the author of Painting the Head in Oils, published by Watson-Guptill.

Lately my posts have been sporadic at best. To my tiny reading audience, sorry about that! The final month of my co-op semester was more than filled with activities ranging from preparing for an Open Source Software conference that I helped pull off (for free admission to it), to the visit with my grandparents (which I described in a post yesterday), to me simply not wanting to spend time on my computer at the end of a work day. In all reality, hectic was only part of it. To put it simply, "it is what it is".
As for how things are going to be looking going forward, with at least this semester. I am taking classes this fall, and hence get some free time during the days again (which can be VERY nice to have between classes and the like). My courses are 3 computer science classes, economics (my last social science… for real this time!), and a management class (working towards that Entrepreneurship Certificate). I have my Information Security class in the morning on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and my management class Monday, Wednesday. On Tuesday, Thursday I have my other two computer science classes followed by my economics class (so basically class in the morning, one hour break, other two classes, then go back to the apartment at 3). With that (not so light when it comes to the work load) schedule, I should be able to put out at least a post per week on here. I am not planning on doing any part time work to fill the gaps this semester because I need a higher than 3.7 for the semester to achieve my goal of a 3.5 overall GPA.
On another note though, I will be meeting with a study abroad advisor on Tuesday of this week to determine the logistics of me going to China. I would really love to go, but understand that if I cannot get academic credit for more than one class (besides the Chinese that I would take while there), then I cannot substantiate making the trip. Also, my girlfriend and I are planning on going getting the details for going on the Birthright Israel trip in December. Have to get all the information for that though.
Lastly, I have been working on a post (for about a month now, have gotten bogged down for the above mentioned reasons) regarding how to manage your finances as a college student. I feel that this is a VERY important topic to cover with the present economy taken into consideration.

Mobile advertising has emerged as one of the most popular, reliable and simple ways for app monetization. App developers look up to mobile advertising as a practicable way to monetize apps, where ads are precisely targeted and do not compromise with the user experience. Targeted mobile ads made possible with advanced user data and app analytics, have benefitted both app developers (by providing better experience to their users) and advertisers.
Unique identifiers for mobile devices were put in place for fetching user data and better tracking. Many app developers make money through cross-promotion, i.e. by promoting other's apps in their own app.Unique identifiers are also required for tracking purposes in cross-promotions.
However, the use of these identifiers led to privacy issues among many consumers. To limit the growing privacy issues, first Apple and then Google came up with new identifiers for mobile devices.
What is Google's Advertising ID?
Google's Advertising ID is an anonymous unique identifier which balances both advertisers' need for tracking user data and users' privacy issues. The new ID passes the control back to the Android users. The users can now choose whether they want their devices to be recognised or not, and can reset the ID anytime they want. The Advertising ID can be reset under 'Ads' in 'Google Settings'. In addition, there's an option for users to opt out of interest based ads which would instruct apps not to use the Advertising ID to build profiles or show interest based ads on users' devices.
The Advertising ID is similar to Apple's Identifier for Advertising (IDFA) introduced last year, which has now been implemented in all iOS devices. Google Play Developer website defines the new Advertising ID as:
"A user-specific, unique, resettable ID for advertising, provided by Google Play services. It gives users better controls and provides developers with a simple, standard system to continue to monetize your apps. It is an anonymous identifier for advertising purposes and enables users to reset their identifier or opt out of interest-based ads within Google Play apps."
Why the change?
Google issued the following statement concerning the shift:
"To give users better controls and to provide developers with a simple, standard system to continue to monetize their apps, we are replacing Android ID with an anonymous identifier for advertising purposes. This enables users to reset their identifier, or opt out of interest-based ads for Google Play apps."
What it means for app developers?
Google announced repeatedly that mobile app developers and advertisers should adopt the Advertising ID by August 1, 2014. And now all the apps and app updates submitted to Play Store require the use of Advertising ID for tracking of ads.
The identifiers used till now like AndroidID and AndroidDeviceID, are no longer accepted as tracking tools, and mobile app developers must switch to the new Advertising ID to remain compliant. Non-compliance will lead to rejection of the apps from Google Play Store whenever a new app or app update is submitted.
Developers who have their apps already approved should also become compliant with the new ID in order to have maximum ad fill rates.
How to make your app compliant to the Advertising ID?
Adiquity always takes great care in ensuring its app developers, publishers and advertisers to be compliant with the latest developments in the industry. Adiquity's latest Android SDK and Ads 'N'velope support the Google Advertising ID. We strongly recommend app developers working with us to update their apps to the latest Android SDK or Ads 'N'velope.

After a great deal of careful design and preparation work, the Madison Square Garden Company's renovation of the legendary Forum has taken a major step forward, said a spokesperson for the project. Fifteen people were recently hired to remove all 17,000 seats at the Forum, to make room for improved seating. Seven of those workers are from Inglewood – a nearly 50 percent local hire rate. As part of the job, these local workers were trained in abatement work, giving them skills they can bring to future work as well. These residents are earning a prevailing wage, along with all other employees who are hired onto the project (which currently includes five additional Inglewood residents). Many more local residents will be hired onto this project as it moves forward. The workers are employed by TEGLVI Environmental Services Inc.

In Cambodia: Ending Violence against Women
November 21, 2007
November 25th was International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women and an opportunity to take inventory of achievements made on behalf of women's security as well as what remains to be done. 2007 saw an increase in the response to fight human trafficking by the Cambodian government and to reduce the vulnerability of their most at-risk population " particularly children and women. While it was clear that lack of opportunity and wide-spread poverty are contributing factors to the high risk of human trafficking, Government officials realized that they had to change behaviors and attitudes towards trafficking and women. Responding to international pressure, but also expressing real concern about their citizens, Government officials appealed to the NGO and donor communities to help them address the problem.
Alarming reports of Cambodian nationals being trafficked for sex and labor on long-haul fishing boats, child pornography on the Internet, and young Cambodian women being stranded in neighboring countries because of fake marriages pushed the government to take radical steps. In August, Prime Minister Hun Sen publicly decried the loss of Cambodian moral values, pointing to the alarming rise in gang rapes in urban areas. Linking the perceived growth of sexual violence with the risk of losing Khmer identity, the Prime Minister urged the government to do all in its power to turn the tables on those who profit from the sexual exploitation of Cambodians.
With funding from USAID through the Counter-Trafficking in Persons Program (CTIP) and support from The Asia Foundation, the National Task Force (NTF) against Human Trafficking brings together 11 ministries and 3 government agencies to create a long-term strategy to fight trafficking. Altogether, more than 200 NGOs are included in the NTF, making it a powerful forum for coordination, information exchange, and action. Currently, the NTF is focusing on developing national standards of victim assistance, enhancing shelter care, developing a national police training curriculum, training for judges and prosecutors, conducting research on new trafficking trends, as well as planning a national awareness campaign to revitalize the anti-trafficking message.
In August, a High Level Working Group on the Suppression of Trafficking and Drugs (HLWG) was created to support the NTF as a policy-making body directly under the Deputy Prime Minister, but also to work with the Ministry of Interior (MOI) to fast-track anti-trafficking efforts. While it is an impressive initiative, the HLWG does not have the capacity or the resources to change the environment in which trafficking flourishes, such as the lack of economic opportunities, low levels of education, poor health care, and scarce information.
For the young women who were recently rescued from a brothel only to find themselves back in the hands of their exploiters some time later, the Government's push may appear of little comfort. They know that the stigma associated with being a prostitute means that they can never return to their home. To complicate matters, 50% of the Cambodian population is under the age of 25, and 200,000 young Cambodians enter the job market each year. At Cambodia's current rate of economic growth, these rescued trafficking victims and others like them will find making a living difficult. While 71% of the population is heavily dependent on agriculture, it only contributes 31% of the country's GDP, and for every 10% growth in national income, poverty is only reduced by 1.4% — contributing to the long-term poverty trap. Industry employs 11%, but contributes 29% growth. For the average Cambodian to benefit from an economic boom, though, changes must be made to the educational and vocational structure to improve the level of education. With better education, young girls especially increase their chances for an income and a healthy life free from violence.
Resolutely, the HLWG has now pushed for a merger of the HLWG and the NTF secretariats to streamline efforts of the ministries, organizations, donors, and civil society. With a merger of the two secretariats " uniting policy and practice — it will be easier for the government to affect the behavioral changes necessary to stop trafficking. The focus of the Government's new strategy, which will be apparent in an upcoming national awareness campaign, is to work closely with provincial governors to unite local authorities and their constituents to protect their communities from exploitation by giving people the facts on where to go if they need help.
Much of the trafficking and ensuing trauma in Cambodia comes from people simply accepting the inevitability of exploitation and abuse " particularly in the case of young girls who are brought up with the notion of self-sacrifice for the sake of the family. There needs to be stronger resistance to the lure of traffickers, which can only come from the community itself and its willingness to work together to solve its problems. The HLWG will continue its efforts to expedite prosecution of trafficking cases, but with a closer working relationship with the NTF, its actions at the provincial level will be better coordinated, more effective, and more sensitive to the needs of the communities as well as the potential or actual victims.
Marielle Sander Lindstrom is the Chief of Party for the Counter-Trafficking in Persons Program (CTIP) in Cambodia.

Workshop on standards and codes for electric drive vehicles
ANSI workshop will consider current, future standards, codes, conformity assessment activities needed to facilitate the deployment of grid-connected electric vehicles, charging infrastructure, support services
On April 5–6, 2011, in Bethesda, Maryland, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) will host the ANSI Workshop: Standards and Codes for Electric Drive Vehicles to drive the safe and effective implementation of electric vehicles through standards and conformance.
Convened on behalf of the U.S. Department of Energy and the Idaho National Laboratory, the workshop will consider current and future U.S. domestic, regional, and international standards, codes, and conformity assessment activities needed to facilitate the widespread acceptance and deployment of grid-connected electric vehicles, charging infrastructure, and support services.
With billions of dollars in public and private-sector investment at stake, few technological innovations have captured as much attention in recent years as electric vehicles. With both the Obama administration and consumers pushing for electric vehicle technology, the standardization community needs to work together to establish technologies and infrastructure that are effective, safe, and ready to accommodate this major shift in our national transportation landscape.
The workshop will consider current and future U.S. domestic, regional, and international standards, codes, conformity assessment activities, and education and training initiatives. The workshop will provide a neutral environment where all interested stakeholders can engage in discussions that will identify gaps in coverage and explore opportunities for collaboration and coordination. The input from the workshop will go into a report to be prepared afterwards.

Annual Salary Survey
Before the calendar turned, 2016 already had the makings of a pivotal year for manufacturing, and for the world.
There were the big events for the year, including the United States as Partner Country at Hannover Messe in April and the 2016 International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago in September. There's also the matter of the U.S. presidential elections in November, which promise to shape policy in manufacturing for years to come.
But the year started with global economic turmoil, as a slowdown in Chinese manufacturing triggered a worldwide stock hiccup that sent values plummeting. The continued plunge in world oil prices has resulted in a slowdown in exploration and, by extension, the manufacture of exploration equipment.

From Iris DeMentNo Albums Currently Available
About Connect
One of the most celebrated country-folk performers, Iris Dement was born in rural Paragould, AR. At the age of three, her devoutly religious family moved to California, where she grew up singing gospel music; during her teenaged years, she was first exposed to country, folk, and R&B, drawing influence from Loretta Lynn, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, and Joni Mitchell. Dement first began composing songs at the age of 25. Dement did not make her recording debut until 1992, when her independent label offering, Infamous Angel, won almost universal acclaim thanks to her pure, evocative vocal style and spare, heartfelt songcraft. Despite a lack of support from radio, the record's word-of-mouth praise earned her a deal with Warner Bros., which reissued it in 1993 and its follow-up My Life. After 2005's Lifeline, she returns with new album Sing the Delta Oct. 2.

Fargo makes plea for sandbag volunteers today and tonight
FARGO - Volunteers are needed today starting at 12:30 p.m. to begin dike building. Volunteers are asked to report to Assembly of God Church, 3401 25th St S, Fargo. Park in the lot on the west side of the building - buses will pick up volunteers and take them out to the dike sites.
Volunteers are also still needed at Sandbag Central, where operations are running on a 24 hour basis. Pat Zavoral, City Administrator, says "so far, we have 310,000 bags filled and ready to go, but that's a long way from the 1.5 million sandbags we need to fight this flood."
People who can fill sandbags during the day are asked to call the Volunteer Hotline number at 476-4000. Park at the Fargodome, and buses will shuttle to Sandbag Central.
There is a critical need for volunteers in the evening and overnight hours also - the new bag filling machines need a minimum of 150 volunteers to run continuously, so it's vital to have enough people to keep those machines going, according to a city news release.
After 8 p.m., no need to call the Volunteer Hotline - just park at the Fargo Dome and buses will shuttle to Sandbag Central.

On Friday, Aug. 12, at 8:03 p.m., Oro Valley police responded to the area of Hardy Road and Northern Avenue in response to a person who appeared to be intoxicated and walking into traffic. The person was wearing dark-colored shorts, no shirt and a backpack. When police arrived, they found the subject in a nearby church's common area and noticed him fall down several times. The underage suspect said he had been drinking and gave a Breathalyzer reading of .252. He was arrested, cited and released for a minor consumption. Police then drove him to his nearby apartment.
On Tuesday, Aug. 9, at 1:48 a.m., while working on a federally funded task force known as the Stonegarden Assignment, Oro Valley police pulled a vehicle over for failing to stop at a stop sign at Mile Wide and Sandario roads. The driver identified herself with her Arizona identification card, but did not have a driver's license. A background check showed the car belonged to a couple in Illinois. The driver could only provide an expired insurance and registration card; she could not reach the owner of the vehicle. In addition, the passenger did not have his driver's license because it had been revoked. The car was impounded, and the driver was cited for failure to obtain current registration, no valid operator license, no proof of insurance, and expired out-of-state registration. A search by police of the car and the passenger's bag revealed a pipe with marijuana residue and a bag of marijuana. The passenger was cited and released for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.
On Monday, Aug. 8, Oro Valley police spoke with a woman over the phone who wanted to report that two of her bicycles had been stolen from the front patio of her apartment on Tuesday, Aug. 2. Her apartment is in the complex at 9901 N. Oracle Road. The victim said her bikes, a Trek road bike and a Jamis mountain bike, were not locked. The bikes were valued at about $1,300.
On Sunday, Aug. 7, at about 10 p.m., students from Ironwood Ridge High School drove a truck onto the campus and drove over a bridge, which led them into the outdoor corridors of the campus. A couple of students got out of the car, turned on some water faucets, took a picture of their vehicle and posted it on Facebook. On Thursday, Aug. 11, Oro Valley police were made aware of the photo and video footage of the incident. Two of the five people involved were arrested for theft of service for wasting water and trespassing. There was an estimated 7,200 gallons of water wasted. Including cleanup, the total cost of damages was $112.81.

What's on Tap: Beer with fruits, veggies
Published 12:00 am, Wednesday, June 30, 2010
Beer is often referred to as "liquid bread" because the ingredients are roughly the same. Grain, water, yeast and sugar — change the ratios and you get one or the other.
Though starches play an important part in any diet, let's not forget the other food groups, notably fruits and vegetables.
When you consider fruit and vegetable beers, look at them like you would look at a slice of toast with jam or a spread.
First of all, you want a good body to build on. Don't accept a fruit beer that adds a lot of fruit juice to an inferior beer. That's like eating grape-flavored corn syrup on generic white bread.

What you should look for is something that matches your taste. So, if you like a hearty bread with a jam loaded with real fruit, you're going to need to find a beer that takes the fruit as seriously as the beer.
The other thing you want to avoid is a beer that allows the fruit to overwhelm the beer. So many beers labeled as Belgian-style lambics are so loaded with syrupy fruit that you might as well drink raspberry Kool-Aid.
You want the sweetness, but you also want to taste that tartness that only comes from real fruit. Lindemans Framboise is an example of a fruit beer that, by not being overly sweet and using high carbonation, accentuates the sweet and tart nature of the fruit.
I happened upon Magic Hat's Wacko at my local H-E-B, which recently added a ton of craft beers. I bought it because, frankly, I'm a sucker for nifty packaging.
It was only after I got home that I realized that the image on the label was a beet. This beer is fizzy and slightly sweet with a cranberry, rather than beet, flavor. While it uses ale yeast, it's decidedly lager-ish in character, clean, crisp, not overly complicated.
I've written earlier about my fondness for Shiner's Holiday Cheer, a dunkelweizen brewed with peaches and pecans. It's only on store shelves in the fall and winter, but it's an excellent example of a beer that allows the fruit to emphasize the quality of the beer itself.

Next Mortgage Fight: Loan Limit Drop
Even as Congress slowly debates how to reform the secondary mortgage market, credit union mortgage lenders in states with higher home prices face a significant deadline on Oct. 1.
Unless Congress acts, conforming loan limits on loans backed the Federal Housing Administration and purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will fall from their current cap of more than $729,000 to $417,000 for most of the country that day.
Congress raised the limit in February 2008, as part of the economic stimulus package, allowing the FHA, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to guarantee more loans at a time when private capital was tight.
Non-conforming or jumbo loans typically carry a higher mortgage interest rate than a conforming loan and require a higher down payment, increasing the monthly payment and negatively affecting housing affordability, according to the California Association of Realtors, which supports renewing the cap.
"By reducing the conforming loan limit, thousands of California home buyers will be shut out of homeownership," said CAR President Beth L. Peerce.
"The higher mortgage loan limits are critical to providing liquidity in today's housing market and are essential to our housing recovery," Peerce said. "We urge Congress to maintain the current limits and make them permanent to provide homeowners and home buyers with affordable financing and help stabilize local housing markets."

In recent decades, Saskatchewan's food production system has been largely based on looking outward to serve national and international markets.
But in recent years, a trend has developed toward consuming locally produced food at home.
Much of the impetus for that is coming from the province's French-speaking community and the Assemblée Communautaire Fransaskoise.
It's all in line with a concept called terroir, a term that refers to economic and community development based on products, services or cultural practices related to a specific geographic area.
"In Saskatchewan, we produce massive amounts of food but in so doing we sometimes forget about our own population," said ACF president Michel Dubé. "We need to look internally as well as abroad to help maintain our smaller communities and offer a living to those who want to live in those communities."
The ACF has been working on a terroir project centred on a number of communities north and east of Saskatoon with a high population of francophones.
But Dubé emphasized this is not something restricted to francophone communities.
"This can work with all sorts of communities, including Métis, aboriginal and others."
Graham Fraser, Canada's commissioner of official languages, recently presented the results of a study of rural francophone communities at a conference in Regina.
It was one of a series of studies regarding the development of minority language communities across Canada. At the suggestion of ACF, the Saskatchewan study focused on rural development and terroir.
Fraser identified a number of challenges facing the Fransaskois community in rural Saskatchewan, including a population exodus to urban centres, an aging population and a decline in the number of small agricultural producers and processors.
The community has responded by focusing on its terroir such as mustard in Gravelbourg, peas from Bellevue, Red Fife wheat, saskatoon berries, wild rice or bison products.
Fraser added the rural development terroir movement fits well with the growing urban desire to eat locally produced food. It could create jobs, retain young people in the communities and promote the quality of life in small towns.
"I see this not as a look backward but a look forward at how we can see a path for small francophone communities in Saskatchewan to develop products and market their culture at the same time," he told the conference.
Dubé said 40 to 50 Saskatchewan producers, industry officials, entrepreneurs and government officials will travel to Quebec in early April to look at how the terroir system works there.

The Dukes of September is an American supergroup, formed in 2010 featuring Donald Fagen, Michael McDonald and Boz Scaggs. The project is a resurrection of the previous New York Rock and Soul Revue which featured the same three musicians and played a combination of hits from the members' respective careers as well as a wide variety of covers.
Donald Fagen and Michael McDonald began working together in the mid-1970s when McDonald would collaborate with Steely Dan, singing and playing keyboards on a lot of their material. The two worked together again during the early 1990s in the short lived New York Rock and Soul Revue which also included Boz Scaggs, Phoebe Snow, Eddie Brigati, David Brigati, Charles Brown, Walter Becker, Cornelius Bumpus and Mindy Jostyn.[1]
In 2010 it was announced that Fagen, McDonald and Scaggs would do a fall tour together as the Dukes of September. The band is rounded out by Jon Herington (guitar), Freddie Washington (bass), Michael White (drums, now replaced by Shannon Forrest), Jim Beard (organ), Jay Collins (horns), Michael Leonhart (horns), Walt Weiskopf (horns), Carolyn Escoffery (vocals) and Catherine Russell (vocals).[2]
The tour kicked off on August 19, 2010, in Danbury, Connecticut. The band played a collection of hits from the members' careers as well as a wide variety of covers, notably three Band covers in a row.[1]
On June 14, 2012, the band performed on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to promote their 2012 summer concert tour.
PBS concert[edit]
A concert filmed at Lincoln Center in New York City in November 2012 was broadcast as a 90-minute Great Performances special on PBS in March 2014 and released at the same time on DVD and Blu-ray discs. Songs included:

AAHA Practice of the Year – A Retrospective
March 15, 2013
With our friends at NorthStar VETS and Macungie Animal Hospital taking top honors at this year's AAHA Practice of the Year ceremony, we thought we'd reminisce a bit by dusting off Dr. Magazu's acceptance speech from last year's award ceremony when our hospital won 2nd place, Practice of the Year, North America.
Back then our hospital was named "Tri-State Animal Emergency Center", prior to our re-brand to Saint Francis Veterinary Center of South Jersey when we added specialty services. We've come a long way in a year!
Congratulations to the great doctors and staff at NorthStar and Macungie who represent the veterinary community of our region with class, character and excellence!
Hospital Accreditation
Saint Francis Veterinary Center, one of New Jersey's leading veterinary specialty referral hospitals, is an award-winning facility that is among North America's Top 1% of animal hospitals who have earned accreditation by AAHA as a Referral hospital. This means that Saint Francis was evaluated on over 900 categories, ranging from the quality of medicine to our standards of customer service.

Hi guys,
My Norton internet security updated its self last night and must have done some kind of background scan and in that ended up deleting a whole pile of stuff it should not have.
Before anyone says, my objectdock is genuine, I have used norton for years with no problems after this update though objectdock reported objectdock Dll/Hook missing "please reinstall..." and stopped working, well I have used objectdock for years with no problems either I love that app, well the answer to fix it is simple, go to nortons options and find the quarantine section and restore the Dll from there.
I would have to admit in this regard Norton is a pile of cr** for being so aggressive.
Kind regards
Stardock fan.
Norton is one of the worst pos along with mcafee.honestly most people are fine and are protected with just what windows loads on your computer.ahh that Microsoft though.i don't use an antivirus just what comes installed by Microsoft and ill tell you between the firewall and windows defender.i don't get jack problems and I'm a power user.honestly most people get viruses from allowing virus programs.they tell you that your whole computer is fucked even though 9 times out of ten that's whats causing it until you purchase.your dll prolly got erased with a Norton update because the way those programs work is this.coding is limited and it searches for strings that's common in viruses.problem is every program in existence uses similar coding at time to a degree.
don't believe me fine,but for my whole life ive never had any issues with my computers by not having antivirus bloatware
Norton is a legal virus.
It was crap the minute it took a "special" tool to remove it. It supposedly improved, but it remains crap, it seems.
No surprise.
Reminds me of the guy walking down the city street spraying himself with some odd chemical...and his friend says 'what's that?' and the guy says 'it's my crocodile repellent'...and the other says 'there aren't any crocs in the city...' and the guy says 'see? it works!'
Not having a GOOD AV program means you don't have an indicator of an issue even if you did.
Not knowing is not not having.....
Just yesterday Kaspersky dealt with 2 infected emails on this machine [as they were received].

Norton, absolutely the best internet insecurity a person can get.
Guaranteed to always be working in the background... breaking shit.
Install with confidence if you want to be free of stress-free PC use.
Yes, that's right folks, Norton Internet Insecurity, designed from the ground up to be a PITA
Norton is absolute complete JUNK! Get rid of it.
Thank you for taking the time to post so that someone else might benefit from your experience.
I've been using Avast Pro Anti-virus for a couple years now. It's very light weight on my system and you would never know it was even there until it detects a threat. It's very affordable for most anyone and I highly recommend it if you are in the market for dependable and hassle free protection. -- Ace --
I think that some do not know that there is absolutely no need to run the Internet security package.Antivirus already includes Antivirus obviously Antimalware and Antibot.Trust me im far off sharing the same opinion as the guys above me, i use Norton AV and im absolutely happy with it.In some cases it will Auto lock/block unreputated shit... Meaning that stuff gets quarantined to protect you due to the fact that the file has no/low user reputation and almost no userbase worlwide.You still can go and allow it if you run your installers with administrative rights if you totally trust the application.
I started using Norton AV in 2013 again after the 2006 desaster, even though i told myself to never go back.The only other AV i would switch to atm is Bitdefender.But then again they cant save themselves from intruders as you can read online...So one could go and point fingers there and HAW HAW, but it would just seem equally silly since ist also top row.
I've been using Norton Internet Secuity for about 3 years, and I've never had any issues with it. I switched to NIS after Avast completely missed a virus that had been around for a long time and was well known.
Case in point. A friend of mine has a laptop with Norton preinstalled. I did a quick scan with MalwareBytes that unfortunately was not able to complete, my friend got a call and had to leave. Anyway mb found five PUPS about a third of the way through the scan. Next time I get my hands on it I'll run the full scan and see what pups up. Go Norton
Thne I'll strip it to the bare bones...he he.
Oh, yes. Norton is the WORLD'S BEST AV Software.... provided the criterion is how well it succeeds with FALSE POSITIVES.
The really enjoyable part of this equation is how cleverly it can slander and malign another's reputable software...
Norton cannot get its act together to NOT interfere-with-legitimate-software-TOO-DAMN-OFTEN.
The living end [for me] was when Norton decided the Microsoft BITS service was 'suspicious/malware' and PERMANENTLY DISABLED IT.
You had essentially 2 choices.... sift through three pages of command line instructions and registry edits.... or completely reinstall Windows.
I discarded 10 months of subscription and said 'fuck you, Norton 3rd strike'...and switched to BitDefender.
Yes, Norton [from what I since heard] hasn't quite repeated that clusterfuck of a 'slight glitch' and now tends to 'only' annoy the shit out of programmers everywhere with false positives.....
Those outside the 'programming industry' probably see that as an improvement.
I don't.
Me, either! My Win 8 tablet-come-laptop came with Norton pre-installed, and to put it bluntly, it ran like a hairy goat in leg irons and was slower than a wet week. Worse still, it didn't want to be disabled or uninstalled so's I could get on with things. Not even the official uninstaller wanted to shift it, often returning the message that I didn't have the required permissions Anyway, after a time of messing around and getting nowhere fast, I searched for and found the answer in one of those tech problem solving forums.... which was to restart in Safe Mode and uninstall Norton using IOBit's uninstaller with deep cleaning to get all those nasty little leftovers.
Once I was rid of Norton there have been no real issues to speak of.... nor has there been any false positives wanting to shut down/eliminate legit installations, etc. Nope, Norton is malware and will never again reside on any machine of mine.
Good luck finding an AV that doesn't throw up fp's.Thankfully using the "add to exclusion" option works wonders.It's when they start quarantining windows system files that things start to get hairy..lol..
Quoting Jafo, reply 11 Those outside the 'programming industry' probably see that as an improvement.

I will proceed by asking you if this is directed at me?!
As i mentioned if you trust it run it with admin privileges and your fine how hard can that be? 2006 version was a mess like I did mentioned before, but Norton AV is currently very close to BD, it sometimes doesn't catch as much low range stuff but it's pretty equal when it comes to destructive "let's call them things" to keep it simple, however they managed to find truly potential spyware before BD guess that means they are not as bad then? Thankfully the www is filled with alternatives.
Who said it's the best? I didn't.
I guess it's what you define as best... for me a good AV updates and keeps track of the new 3-4 daily destructive viruses and updates accordingly. SO far both do a pretty good job doing so. If the stuff that you program only reaches a small audience its not uncommon to be blocked by user reputation not only by Norton, thinking a bit further it should make sense since not everyone is a power user, for me it makes perfect sense it serves one purpose - to protect. Legitimate? You mean as receiving fraud shit from foxacid/quantum servers back then? Ok…
It's the best at false positives.
However that's not a good 'quality' to be best at. It's like being No.1 on a 'most wanted' list.
Actually stopping the bad shit whilst not impacting on the good....that's what would qualify an AV as desirable.
In all the years of using Kaspersky [ever since the first release of Win 7] I have only encountered one false pos..... an installer of an old proggy called 'Sonique'...one of the many skinnables I used to skin for.
Norton on the other hand actually [permanently] disabled BITS.... and just to be absolutely clear....uninstalling Norton wasn't actually a fix. That did nothing [other than preventing the program from further screwing with an Operating System]....
Norton, AND Avast both flag my gadgets as malware, effectively blocking them. Adding it to the ignore/allowed list helps not. It okays THAT gadget, but the next one I build gets blocked.
eh having or not having an antivirus.like I was saying Microsoft comes with bitsdefender windows defender the malware protection update and etc.it usually does its job.ive had some things ppop up on using what Microsoft gives me and I choose to allow it or not.most the time its bs though but eh.perhaps some need the extra crap but I do not.then again I know what sites to stay away from and use adblocker so no spam bs ever gets installed.like I said I rarely have an issue.my computers never lag crash break down.prolly helps that I got a router and a modem both with firewalls on as well.who knows lol
ive used a lot of antivirus programs in the past before and I found that most,apart from maybe kapersky and eset are crap.
one computer lifespan for me can last up to 10-15 years if it wanted to without hiccups.
I just go by my experience.then again it all depends what you do and where you go on your computer.
This is really the bottom line folks. We have to pay attention when using our computers. What's that popular quote "You can't fix stupid".
You can.... but it's terminal.
The thing about being smart and avoiding so-called 'bad' sites, is that it doesn't always ring true. I have a couple of nephews who frequent pr0n sites regularly and who very rarely get infected, yet I have a nephew who frequents music sites to research stuff [sheet music/recording tools, etc] and he is often infected with various nasties and has an inbox full of spam riddled with spyware, etc. Yeah, go figure! The pervert nephews are less trouble when it comes to fixing their PCs.

Well Jafo, what version of Norton was that? what package what year? You cant compare rotten tomatoes with freshly picked ones.
If you hate tomatoes then their ancestry is irrelevant.
It was back around 2004.
Since then Norton improved...which is only fair...it could NOT get worse.
Bottom line...I am no sucker...once bitten and it's F U, arsehole...direct me to anything else....
I only ever had any remote interest in Norton as I remembered a time before Symantec ...when Windows was an absurd dream and the world was Dos.
Sadly 'wot's in a name' is merely a phrase from 'The Sentimental Bloke' and definitely not a recommendation for reputation and performance.
Seems not all proggies work for all people. I have to agree with Jafo, in the five or so years I've been into this I have had nothing but headaches with Norton which is why I lean towards the freebies I've used. AVG seems to be the best of the lot IMO and it didn't miss the PUPS that Norton did.

After you do that, go through your registry, manually, and see how much is left behind. Hell, even after running their tool, there is still some Norton/Symantec stuff left in the registry. The fact that a tool is even needed turns me off to it.

Yeah, I feel the same. A special tool should NOT be necessary to remove a program.... and if one is it sends up a red flag not to install that program. As for Norton crap being left in the registry, I found that when I got rid of NIS on my laptop.. However, I didn't have to spend too long wheedling it out. Ccleaner got rid of some, and Advanced System Care pretty much got rid of the rest, leaving just a couple to manually move.
After doing an 'Everything' search I also found left over files in the Windows folder under System 32, System and SysWOW64. Oh and in Program Files, Program Data and Common Files as well. Yup, when Norton gets its hooks in it don't mess around none...it plants files fechen everywhere.
For mine, it should be illegal/classified under malware.

Capital One Cup: Gus Poyet insists domestic cup runs are boosting Sunderland
Gus Poyet insists Sunderland will not find domestic cup runs a distraction despite their perilous league position.
Last Updated: 07/01/14 7:19pm
The Black Cats are bottom of the Premier League and four points from a position of safety with just under half of the season remaining.
Poyet's side booked their place in the FA Cup fourth round with a 3-1 victory over League One Carlisle on Sunday afternoon.
The Black Cats boss is now preparing his charges for Tuesday night's Capital One Cup semi-final first-leg clash with Manchester United at the Stadium of Light.
Poyet is not concerned his squad will lose their focus as a result of extra fixtures, and he believes the more the team plays the better the chance of Premier League survival.
"When I was a player, I wanted to play. I hated to train and the fitness coach making me run and run. I wanted to play games," Poyet said.
"If it was three days (between games), it would be perfection. If it's two days, it's a little bit risky.
"Today we gave a rest to a few players who will be fresh on Tuesday and will have no excuses to perform against Manchester United."
Watch Sunderland v Manchester United in the Capital One Cup semi-finals live on Sky Sports 1HD from 7.30pm on Tuesday.
