Sometimes truth really is stranger than fiction. In a hilarious twist of fate conservative activist James O'Keefe was caught red-handed trying to lie his way inside the Open Society Foundations (OSF). OSF is a progressive organization funded by George Soros. O'Keefe's attempt was foiled when he failed to hang up the phone after leaving a hasty voice mail on OSF member Dana Geraghty's phone while pretending to be the fictional Victor Kesh.
After dictating the voicemail O'Keefe can be heard snapping at someone else in the room about not interrupting him while he is on the phone. He then goes on to reveal his plan about infiltrating OSF. The recording also captures O'Keefe conniving to get more information about Geraghty by connecting to her through LinkedIn. He decided against that when he realized that she would have been able to see his profile as well. O'Keefe also directs disturbing language that has implied sexual innuendoes towards Ms. Geraghty as he refers to using her as a "point of entry."

The fraudulent attempt was forwarded to OSF President Chris Stone. He commented that O'Keefe's lack of intelligence regarding the proper use of technology and overall ignorance makes him look like a bumbling idiot. Stone was still very disturbed by it though because it indicates a lot of under-handed activity going on in the background.
OSF is a privately-funded grant-making institution founded by George Soros in 1993. Its aim is to advance initiatives in education, justice, public health, and independent media. It has spent over $11 billion towards these goals and has an endowment valued at over $1.5 billion. George Soros believes that the world's issues need to be responded to as appropriate as they occur instead of trying to solve every problem with a standardized approach. His reasoning is that events don't happen by themselves in a vacuum. They manifest organically similar to the way the financial markets operate. That is why he designed OSF to respond dynamically to needs around the world as needed.
George Soros is a well-respected billionaire business magnate and global philanthropist. His early encounter with the hate-mongering Nazis in his youth helped to shape his worldview that a capitalism-driven society is one of the best ways to preserve freedom for all. Through his formal education and natural business acumen Soros established a very lucrative career that has enabled him to become a self-made billionaire.

Aid as a Catalyst for Pioneer Investment
I discuss how aid can support growth in small, isolated economies. Small markets frustrate scale economies and competition. Combined with high transport costs, essential inputs become prohibitively expensive. Breaking the coordination problem requires pioneering investment. Since this generates externalities it will be undersupplied. Donors have both the finance and the long-term relationships that could offset the externalities and political risks that impede pioneers. However, there are practical difficulties of how such support is best organized. In order of ambition these run from finance of infrastructure, through subsidized capital and political risk insurance, to long-term partnerships with private firms.

Picture: Samira as TINA TURNER THE REEL AWARDS - A Star-Studded Show Featuring Award-Winning Impersonators held at Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino Las Vegas, Nevada...
Veteran rocker Tina Turner barely listens to music at home, because she craves peace and quiet during her downtime.
The 65-year-old SIMPLY THE BEST singer insists her house in Switzerland is often a music-free zone.
She says, "I don't need music around me. I'm quiet, I like it quiet and I'm able to appreciate another kind of quiet and enjoy it. And then when I'm ready for the music, I enjoy it, but the radio or the music is not going all day."21/02/2005 21:27

Q. There's no high voltage plate supply in any 500-series lunchboxes, racks, or consoles. This has to be some lame starved plate "toob" circuit. Right?
Wrong! The RMS5A7 is a real, transformer-coupled, all-tube preamp circuit. We use sophisticated modern power-management circuitry to generate the necessary high-voltage plate and high-current heater supplies from the available +/-16V and +48V rails. It works really well and sounds amazing.
Q. So it must use way more than the specified amount of current for a single module?
Nope. The RMS5A7 is carefully designed to be very efficient. It uses less than 100mA per channel.
Q. Sounds like it must be some wimpy little circuit then.
No way. We started our design by looking at some classic, beefy circuits like the legendary BC2B preamp. We changed a lot of things, like increasing the gain and giving it a real gain control, but at its heart it's an old-school tube amp. Like we said, it's all about careful design and high efficiency in the power management circuits.
Q. Op amp output stage?
No sir. All tube. Transformer input, transformer output.
Q. Does it run hot? Do I have to worry about my lunchbox overheating?
No. We've seen some very poorly-built 500-series racks out there that run very hot when you put more than a few modules in them. But the RMS5A7 doesn't produce any more heat than a typical module. It uses less than 3 watts, below the limit for a single module. Those watts can't tell the difference between a tube and a transistor!
Q. Can I get some good overdrive sounds out of this thing?
Unlike guitar amps, tube mike preamps aren't supposed to sound distorted. It's unfortunate that the proliferation of cheap starved-plate "tube" mike preamps (really just IC op-amp preamps with a tube stage thrown in for marketing purposes) has given many inexperienced users the mistaken impression that tubes can't sound clean. The RMS5A7 definitely has a rich character of its own, but it's not an effect pedal. That said, you can actually vary the amount of "tube coloration" you get out of the Tubule by twiddling the gain in different ways. The Tubule has more coloration at the highest gain settings. By turning down the input attenuator, or activating the -20dB input pad, you can then increase the setting of the gain control without producing unpleasant clipping distortion. Conversely, when you want a cleaner sound, you can maximize the input signal (to a point) and thereby reduce the setting of the gain control.
Q. Can I link two Folcrii together? How do I do this? Do you supply the cables and the paperclip?
Detailed instructions for linking two Folcrom units together for 32-channel operation are included in the user manual. It's easy, all you need is a pair of XLR "Y" cables (two XLR-F to one XLR-M) and a paperclip. The paperclip is used to reach a switch located behind a small hole in the rear panel, between the XLR connectors and the edge of the chassis. This switch re-optimizes the summing impedances for 32-channel operation. We don't supply the cables (or the paperclip) but they're standard items that should be easy to find through the usual channels.
Q. Why do I need to use mike preamps for makeup gain?
Every analog mixer in the world uses resistors to perform the electrical summing of all the channels. There is an insertion loss inherent in this operation. Most mixers have built-in amplifiers to restore the signal to nominal (line) level. The Folcrom is unique in that we've intentionally omitted the amplifiers. The outputs are 150-ohm balanced sources that require about 35-40dB of makeup gain. In other words, the outputs are "microphone level" signals. Microphone preamplifiers are the ideal choice to restore these signals to nominal line level. By leaving the choice of amplifier to you, the user, we effectively give you control over the actual sound of the summing buss. This opens up a world of sonic possibilities never before seen in a mixer. And by happenstance, it also makes our extremely high-quality summing device the least expensive one on the market.
Q. Can't I get the same effect with just the mike preamps and skip the Folcrom?
No. Feeding your line-level 2-mix signal into a pair of mike preamps will probably result in heavy distortion due to clipping. You could attenuate the signal first to prevent clipping, and you would get the sound of the preamp, but you would be applying that preamp sound to same digital mix most users are trying to avoid. By outputting 16 separate channels into the Folcrom, you get all the benefits of summing in the analog domain and you also get the opportunity to apply analog processing to individual channels as you see fit. All without generating a bunch of new latency headaches.
Q. Why is the Folcrom so expensive? Isn't it just a box of resistors?
It's true that the Folcrom is a very simple circuit. But it's also a very well-designed circuit built in a very durable way with very high-quality components. We feel it's priced very well, and is by far the best value available today in a dedicated summing solution. (Besides, it's also a box of switches, and good gold-contact switches like ours are not cheap.)
Q. Why is the Folcrom so cheap? Is it crappier than all the $3000 summing boxes out there?
The Folcrom was designed to be of the highest possible quality in terms of signal integrity, durability, and usability. By choosing a no-compromise approach, we found ourselves with an unusually simple circuit that leaves nothing to be desired. Anything else that could be added to the circuit would only get in the way of its ideal performance. This is one of those rare cases where less really is more, and the result is simultaneously the highest quality and the least expensive dedicated summing solution on the market. If spending more money makes you feel better, you should by a Folcrom and two channels of really sweet preamps.
Q. Doesn't passive mixing increase the noise floor due to attenuating the signal and re-amplifying it with a preamp? Wouldn't it be better to use an active mixer that doesn't have insertion loss?
In theory, it would be better to have a mixer with no insertion loss. Unfortunately, such a mixer does not exist in our universe. All mixers use resistive summing and all have an insertion loss. You simply don't notice it on most products because the makeup gain is integrated into the summing circuit and the output has already been reamplified. If we did a lousy job on the design of the Folcrom, there would be some risk of the low-level signal being degraded in transit between its outputs and the makeup gain amplifiers. But we actually did a very good job on the design of the Folcrom, and the microphone-level outputs are a robust, balanced, low-impedance signal which are very capable of running through a pair of short, high quality balanced cables into a nearby preamp. The results speak for themselves.
Q. The publisher of my DAW software says their math is perfect. How can analog summing possibly offer any improvement over internal DAW summing?
There are many different opinions on this subject, and we don't feel qualified to give a definitive answer. Some people think that internal DAW summing is just fine and there's no reason to leave the box. That's fine, this product probably isn't for them. Some people have found that their "bounce to disk" mixes are lacking, despite starting with high quality recorded tracks. Many of these users have been very satisfied with the Folcrom. Still others think the internal summing is okay, but they would like to leave the digital domain in order to use their analog processing hardware on individual channels. Many of these users feel the Folcrom is an excellent way to accommodate a hybrid approach without generating latency on some tracks that doesn't match the latency on other tracks. And there are many other opinions that couldn't possibly all be compiled here. The moral of the story is that everybody gets to choose their own process for mixing. Like any other artistic process, it's entirely subjective and we can't tell anybody they're right or wrong. Whether it's solving a technical problem in some DAW software, or adding a little pleasant coloration, or just making the workflow easier and more manageable - the large and growing crowd of Folcrom users agree on one thing: Mixing through the Folcrom helps them to achieve better mixes. That's all we need to know.
Q. I don't need 16 channels. Can I get a custom 8-channel Folcrom for half price?
We've heard this request a few times, but not enough times for it to matter. We could build an 8-channel version, but that would mean design costs for another chassis, marketing for another product, and another kind of packaging. These costs would be spread over a smaller number of units sold, and the result would be that an 8-channel Folcrom would actually cost more than the 16-channel unit. The best solution has been for us to make a single version of the Folcrom and keep the price as low as possible. Those users who only require 8 channels are welcome to use the 16-channel unit and simply leave the unused channels disengaged.
Q. Why did you decide to paint the thing such a hideous color? It looks like a dessert. What the hell is wrong with you people?
We like dessert. In fact, we believe you should eat your dessert first. That way, if you choke on a chicken bone during dinner, at least you won't go to your grave without something tasty in your belly.
Q. What's the best preamp to use for makeup gain?
What's the best preamp to use for a microphone? The answer to both questions has (almost) as many answers as there are preamps to choose from. Any high-quality mike preamp will work well with the Folcrom, so long as it has low noise and is capable of delivering a reasonable amount of gain. Which high quality preamp sounds better than the others is a question of taste, and it'll vary with the music, the mix, the mixer, and the listener. Nah, just messing with you. The correct answer is here.
Q. 1. Does the Super Stereo sound like (insert registered trademark here)?
We hope not. Our goal was for the Super Stereo compressor to not sound like anything at all. We certainly don't want it to sound like another compressor on the market. There are compressors on the market that are practically ubiquitous. They can be heard on some of the most famous recordings in music history. We feel that new music should have a new sound, not just try to copy something that was successful before. Furthermore, we've strived to make the Super Stereo compressor as transparent as possible. We think we've succeeded. The idea is to control the dynamics and bring a sense of cohesion to your mix that makes it sound "like a record" without stamping it with some particular sonic signature.
Q. What's the frequency of the sidechain hi-pass filter?
Q. What does the DUAL button do? Also, why isn't there an "auto" release setting?
The DUAL button works very much like the "auto release" setting on some other compressors. It's a dual release time, which is program-dependent. The idea is that the compressor recovers quickly from short transients, while releasing more slowly after long passages of loud music. It differs from most "auto" settings because it doesn't take control away from the user. The Release Time control still functions (though it's not "WYSIWYG") in Dual mode to control the short aspect of the dual release time. Try it and see how you like it. Extra smooth. Be warned though, the moment you press the DUAL button, it will actually do the opposite of what it eventually is going to do. So wait a few seconds (a capacitor needs to charge) before you judge it.
Q. If I use the hi-pass filter with a fast attack time and/or a high ratio on a mix with heavy bass drum, it causes more pumping instead of less.
Yeah. Don't do that. Actually, this isn't a frequently asked question. Nobody ever notices this quirk because nobody ever uses a compressor this way. Setting it up with a high ratio and a fast attack is basically making it behave as a limiter. Why would you want a limiter to ignore bass peaks?
Q. Why aren't there any numbers on the Threshold control?
Because they wouldn't mean anything. The actual threshold changes depending on the ratio selected. This is intentional. The threshold goes up as the ratio goes up so that when you're switching between ratios to find the one that sounds best, you continue to get approximately the same amount of gain reduction. Otherwise it would be very difficult to make a solid evaluation of the sound.
Q. Is there something you can do about the continuously-variable threshold and gain controls so I can recall exact settings?
We're big fans of completely recallable and resettable controls. We've been thinking about the best way to accommodate this request without pissing off the users who like a continuously-variable makeup gain control. If you really need the recall ability, give us a call. We'll be happy to discuss your needs and find a custom modification that will make our product work for you.
Q. I get distorted audio or a 6dB level shift or distortion or bad sound when the unit is engaged. It works fine in bypass. What's wrong with my unit?
Nothing.It sounds to us like you've got interfacing issues. The Super Stereo has electronically balanced, but not floating, inputs and outputs. If you feed it with an unbalanced source and/or feed its outputs into an unbalanced load, you may experience unusual behavior if you don't interface it properly. First of all, if you're feeding the Super Stereo into an unbalanced load please be sure that you're not grounding the unused pin (usually pin 3) of the output connector. To do so will cause distortion. Secondly, if you've got an unbalanced source AND an unbalanced load, make sure they're of the same polarity (pin 2 hot or pin 3 hot). Otherwise, the hard bypass mode of the Super Stereo will result in silence.
Q. I bought my Super Stereo in North America or Japan, and now I'm moving to the rest of the world (or vice versa). How do I make the unit compatible with a different mains voltage?
All Super Stereo compressors are internally configurable for nominal 115V or 230V mains supply. Some early units (SN#RMS755055 and below) may require replacement of the power switch assembly (contact us for that). Current production has an easily identifiable switch on the inside of the unit. If you're not qualified to go poking around inside a piece of electronic equipment, then don't. Get professional help. All Super Stereo compressors require a change of the mains fuses (inside the power entry module, accessible from the rear panel) when the mains voltage is changed. 80mA fuses are used for 230V operation, and 160mA fuses are used for 115V operation. Never use a fuse that's rated for a higher current than is specified.
Q. The Super Stereo is promoted as a mixbus compressor. Can I use it for tracking vocals or bass guitar?
Shit yeah!
Q. I'm connecting the Super Stereo to unbalanced sources and loads, or a combination of balanced and unbalanced gear. How do I make sure everything's wired correctly? Do I float Pin 3 or ground it?
Never ground either pin 2 or pin 3 of the output connector. Grounding an output pin won't damage the unit, but it will cause distortion that is not the good kind of distortion. It's the bad kind. So don't do it. Okay?
Q. Can I buy directly from RMS?
Yes, or you can contact one of our independent dealers.
Q. Are you the same company as Rolls Corp, maker of headphone amps and various other what-have-you??
No. We are Roll Music Systems Inc. We are not affiliated in any way with Rolls Royce, Rolls Corporation, Tootsie Rolls, or any other Rolls. We've been known as Roll Music Systems Inc, Roll Music Systems LLP, Roll Music Systems, Roll Music Studios, and Morse & Sommer. That's it. You can call us Roll Music for short, or even Roll. But please don't call us Rolls. That's a different company with a different name. We're not them. Thank you.

Hello Rashmi Menon,
Thank you for you answer ! But i need more information about keywords, you say :
"Here please check if you have any labels using keywords such as name, type, image, etc. as name in it."
can you give me some example to explain me ? i dont' see what is keyword forbidden.
i send my form composition in png file.
I resolved this problem, i finded somes label called "name" or "type.
But now i have a other problem, at the end of the exportation, I have this message :
com.pat.tool.keditor.utils.AccessibilityConfigData cannot be cast to java.lang.String
What is the problem with the segments ?
thank you.
Hi Nicolas,
We believe that there might be some corruption with the segment data. Kindly follow below steps and see if it resolves. Ensure to backup your applications.
1) Open .kl file of respective form from forms folder of your application.
2) Check with keywork "accessibilityConfigData". For Ex: as below
<data xsi:type="accessibilityConfigData">
3) If you have any such code, move this code to the last of <segment> and refresh your application in IDE.
4) You need to do this for all the forms where error is throwing. For Ex: in the screenshot shared by you, we see error in frmBasket, frmCustomer etc.,
4) After manually modifying all the file in Kony 6.x, build and import in Visualizer Enterprise in 7.0
5) Otherwise please share your application so that we can check at our end.

Environment: What future for our food system? Let us know what you think
In Europe we waste about 89 million tons of food every year. A growing number of analyses question the sustainability of current trends in the production and consumption of food. The food system has a significant impact on the environment through, for example, greenhouse gas emissions, the use of land and water resources, pollution, depletion of phosphorus, and the impact of chemical products such as herbicides and pesticides. That is why the European Commission is asking for opinions about the European food production and consumption system. The consultation asks stakeholders, citizens, businesses, NGOs and public authorities for ideas on immediate action to reduce food waste and more generally on how to ensure our food system is using resources efficiently. These will provide input for a Communication on Sustainable Food later this year. Respondents are asked what they think the priorities for action should be, how to measure the impacts of food production, the best ways of promoting more sustainable production and supply chains and more sustainable patterns of food consumption, how to prevent and reduce food waste, and what policies would be best suited to address these challenges.

Environment: "The fish cannot go to court": Give your opinion on how to improve access to environmental justice
The European Commission has launched a public consultation on ways to improve access to justice in the field of the environment. Access to justice – the right to challenge decisions or omissions by public bodies that are suspected of not complying with environmental law – is an international obligation under a UN Convention ratified by the EU in 2005. Although EU legislation covers many areas related to access to justice, there are gaps which are only filled by case law. Stakeholders are concerned by the legal uncertainty that they currently face and both the Council and Parliament have called for action to improve access to environmental justice.

After the decline in EU27 trade in goods with South Africa observed in 2009, exports recovered strongly to reach a peak of 26.6 billion euro in 2012, while imports grew more slowly to reach 20.5 bn in 2012, still below the peak of 24.6 bn in 2008.

Mergers: Commission clears acquisition of JELD-WEN by Onex
The European Commission has approved under the EU Merger Regulation the proposed acquisition of JELD-WEN Holding, inc. by Onex Corporation. Onex is a Canadian investment firm that participates in companies in a large number of industry sectors through a number of private equity funds. Onex currently has joint control over JELD-WEN. JELD-WEN is a US-based global manufacturer and distributor of windows and doors which has operations in several European countries. The Commission concluded that the transaction would not raise competition concerns, because none of the portfolio companies controlled by Onex are engaged in activities within the EEA which overlap with or are vertically linked to those of JELD-WEN. The operation was examined under the simplified merger review procedure. More information is available on the Commission's competition website in the public case register under the case number M.6959 .

Zhirkov leads Chelsea win over AC Milan; Starlet Livermore earns Spurs a draw with Barca; Celtic crash five past Al Ahly; Manchester United edge FC Seoul in a 5-goal thriller; Benfica beat the Black Cats
Chelsea 2 – AC Milan 1 (World Football Challenge, July 24, 2009) (Longer highlights here.) Didier Drogba took everyone by surprise with a sublime strike from around 35 yards out which blazed into the top left corner after just seven minutes. The Serie A side were back on level terms after 37 minutes thanks to Clarence Seedorf, who hit a first-time strike from Ronaldinho's lay-off which sailed into the net from 18 yards. Russian debutant Yuri Zhirkov then crowned his first Blues' match with the winner midway through the second half after capitalising on a game of pinball in the Milan area which started when Andriy Shevchenko's shot was parried by Kalac to Frank Lampard.
Watch individual highlights of Ronaldinho, Alexandre Pato, Oguchi Onyewu and Alessandro Nesta.
Barcelona 1 – Tottenham 1 (Wembley Cup, July 24, 2009) (Longer highlights here.) Barca broke the deadlock after 33 minutes, Yaya Toure burst through the Spurs backline with Bojan Krkic on hand to fire the ball home after the ball broke loose. (First half highlights here.) Ten minutes from time and 19-year-old Jake Livermore made himself a new Spurs hero by getting on the end of an Ekotto cross in the heart of the Spanish area. (Second half highlights here.)
Celtic 5 – Al Ahly 0 (Wembley Cup, July 24, 2009) (Longer highlights here.) The Egyptians only had themselves to blame for conceding the opening goal against Celtic at the Wembley Cup as a series of weak, halfhearted challenges allowed the Scots to steal possession with Massimo Donati eventually finding the net. The bumblebees doubled their lead through a 38th minute Scott McDonald penalty. Shaun Maloney added third minutes after the restart while Scott McDonald claimed number four before the hour was up. Chris Killen wrapped up the rout with a fifth in the 83rd minute.
Artur Boruc put in a fine performance in goal in which the Pole made a series of top saves to keep a clean sheet. Boruc's saves can be seen here.
FC Seoul 2 – Manchester United 3 (Friendly, July 24, 2009) (Longer MUTV highlights here.) FC Seoul sent the home crowd wild 25 minutes in taking the lead with a superb goal as Dejan Damjanovic met a right-wing cross on the volley, giving Tomasz Kuszczak no chance in the United goal. The Koreans' lead was short-lived, John O'Shea swung in an inviting right-wing cross and Wayne Rooney was left free by the penalty spot able able to easily head home the leveller. On the stroke of halftime the hosts retook the lead in style, the ball was slipped through to Dejan Damjanovic and the Montenegrin forward chipped a delightful shot over Kuszczak for number two. (First half highlights here.) United equalised just before the hour, Rooney's diagonal ball over the top picked out Federico Macheda's run to perfection and the young Italian rounded the keeper to finish in style. With the game tied Fergie introduced Berbatov, Nani and Owen, and the result was almost immediate as Dimitar Berbatov expertly headed Gibson's cross into the near post to claim the eventual winner.
Sunderland 0 – Benfica 2 (Amsterdam Tournament, July 24, 2009) An Oscar Cardozo penalty and a fierce drive from Maxi Pereira in the second half shot down the Black Cats.
Sevilla 1 – Juventus 2 (Peace Cup, July 24, 2009) (Longer highlights here.) Ciro Ferrara's side went ahead in the 27th minute when Amauri got on the end of Alessandro Del Piero's corner to power home a header from the edge of the six-yard box. A neat Jonathan Zebina pass gave Vincenzo Iaquinta possession in a dangerous position 25 yards out and he progressed to the edge of the box before firing a low shot past Andres Palop. Sebastien Squillaci scored for Sevilla heading in Jose Carlos' corner with 10 minutes to go.
Ajax 3 – Atletico Madrid 3 (Amsterdam Tournament, July 24, 2009) Dario Cvitanich opened the scoring early on, but Simao and Sergio Aguero each netted before halftime to give their side the lead. Dennis Rommedahl restored parity twenty minutes from time, and although Maxi Rodriguez's goal six minutes later appeared to have provided Atleti with the win, up stepped Luis Suarez to level it at the death.
Cologne 0 – Bayern Munich 2 (Friendly, July 24, 2009) A pacey Bayern counter-attack lead by Miroslav Klose was finished by a low Mario Gomez shot in the Cologne near post. Bastien Schweinsteiger wrapped up the win with a second half header.
Liga de Quito 3 – Al-Ittihad 1 (Peace Cup, July 24, 2009)
AEK Athens 2 – Ankaragucu 2 (Peace Cup, July 24, 2009)

LASK Linz 4 – Austria Vienna 5 (T-Mobile Bundesliga, July 24, 2009) The visitors appears to be cruising after storming to a 3-nil lead inside the opening half hour courtesy of goals from Klien, Bak and Okotie. But in incredible fashion LASK managed to go into the break 4-3 as Prager, Mayrleb (brace) and Metz grabbed four goals in a 14 minute spell. Austria Vienna showed their fighting spirit after the interval as Ortlechner equaliser before Okotie grabbed his second four minutes from time to end a thrilling match.
Real Salt Lake 4 – FC Dallas 2 (MLS, July 24, 2009) Striker Jeff Cunningham scored against his old side and Dutch midfielder Dave van den Bergh found the net to put Dallas 2-up after just 21 minutes. RSL's revival began in the 55th minute when Yura Movsisyan beat Dallas keeper Ray Burse one on one. The equaliser came seven minutes later when Robbie Findley stroked home a penalty. Dallas then saw a Cunningham's spot-kick saved by RSL keeper Nick Rimando before the hosts went ahead in lucky circumstances in the 88th minute as the ball deflected off Dallas defender Daniel Torres and bounced into the net. Movsisyan scored his second in stoppage time to round off the victory.
England 2 – Ukraine 2 (European U19 Championship, July 24, 2009) Ukraine got off to a great start when, on two minutes, a good passing move saw Kyrylo Petrov slide a low finish to the right of Jason Steele. England got a deserved equaliser from the penalty spot when Arsenal midfielder Henri Lansbury drilled it into the bottom left after Danny Welbeck was brought down by keeper. England took the lead five minutes after the restart when United youngster Daniel Drinkwater took a clever, quick free-kick that Everton's Dan Gosling rifled past Levchenko. But sloppy marking allowed Petrov to get his second of the night just after the hour mark.
Serbia 2 – Spain 1 (European U19 Championship, July 24, 2009)

Throughout my career, I've worked on web design, development, and marketing teams and have touched almost every aspect of a website relaunch. Today, as an SEO, I see the same common technical SEO mistakes made over and over again. This article explores these mistakes and discusses why it is so important to plan ahead and implement some elements in the beginning of the process and not wait to fix them in phase 2.
There are different levels of a site redesigns. These range from a minor cosmetic update to a complete replatforming. Every time a web developer opens up code there is an opportunity to optimize for the search engines. Unfortunately, most web developers simply do not have the time, budget, or the requirements for SEO. Continue reading

Ford announced that it's investing $682 million in its Oakville assembly plant in Ontario, Canada, to make it a global manufacturing plant, which the automaker also says secures 2,800 jobs there. Including this injection of cash, Ford has invested over $2 billion in Canada in the last decade, starting with nearly $1 billion for Oakville in 2004, and over $570 million for its Essex Engine Plant in 2010.
Ford and Canadian Auto Workers reportedly reach a deal
Ford Motor Company and the leadership of the Canadian Auto Workers union have reached a tentative agreement after a marathon four-day wrap-up to negotiations. Union membership needs to approve the deal, which will guarantee a Great White North presence for Ford until at least 2012. Voting is underway this weekend, and if approved, the CAW will be responsible for building 10 percent of Ford's North American production, down from the current 13 percent, which the union had been trying to hold on t
Ford will shut down 10 N.A. plants in early January
A bitingly cold wind is sweeping through the Motor City this day, but the bigger chill continues to be the rapidly increasing number of idle plants from Detroit's automakers. As part of a previously-announced bid to trim first-quarter output by nearly 38%, Ford now says it will shut down ten North American factories the week of January 5. Unlike Chrysler's planned one month downtime (where they eerily won't commit to start dates), the Blue Oval has confirmed plans to re-light the fires in eight
Ford designer says Fairlane will look almost identical to concept
In an interview with Ward's Auto, Ford's chief creative officer (CCO?) and VP of design, J Mays explains that the similarities between the concept and the production versions of the Fairlane are profound. So much so, that some employees at FoMoCo can't tell the difference between the two.

Barlow Lyde & Gilbert is to join the ranks of Masons and Linklaters & Alliance as core adviser to IT giant ICL.
The Fujitsu-owned company does not have a formal panel, but it does have extremely close and longstanding relationships with Masons and Linklaters.
Linklaters usually acts as ICL's corporate and M&A adviser, with Masons working on commercial transactions, but senior legal adviser Jonathan Smith says the company has been looking to "widen its palate".
Smith says: "We want relationships with a number of law firms, so if someone is conflicted out or if there's a capacity issue, it means we can go to someone else with confidence."
ICL approached Barlows because of a personal recommendation by a member of the in-house team for IT partner Kit Burden.
Smith goes on to say that ICL was impressed with Barlows' fledgling reputation in IT outsourcing work. Barlows counts PricewaterhouseCoopers and Cap Gemini among its clients.
Last week, Barlows finished working on its first significant deal for ICL, the implementation and 10-year management contract of a £10.5m IT system for Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC).
Although it has done piecemeal work for ICL in the past, this was the first time it was instructed on such a significant deal.
Smith says that while the CCC deal is in no way one of ICL's biggest, it did include a variety of innovative and complex elements. He confirms that Barlows will be used in the future, adding: "We're very pleased with the support Kit and his team gave us."
There is no suggestion, however, that Barlows will edge either Masons or Linklaters out. A spokeswoman from Masons confirms that both client and firm still have a strong relationship.

Not necessarily that cut and dry, as those two types of "frauds" are bit different. Fraudulent charges means someone besides the card holder(s) made the charges, they may determine after investigations the cardholders themselves would or wouldn't be responsible. However if the cardholder(s) opened the account thru some kinda of deceptions or falsified on the application, like falsely stated their incomes, their employment, their Citizenship status, could be anything isn't factual really or simply cannot be verified, the cardhold(s) would still be responsible for the charges they made. Of course it can be both at same time, a card was opened with false statements AND have fraudulent charges that wasn't made by cardholder(s). All depends on what types of "frauds". And we haven't mentioned the ID thefts, that would further muddles the "fraud".

Skip to comments.Unarmed, in a hostile world
Posted on 10/11/2002 7:50:51 AM PDT by MD_Willington_1976
October 10, 2002 Unarmed, in a hostile world By LINDA WILLIAMSON -- Toronto Sun
Quick - name a country with uncertain weapons and defensive capability, a fragile, demoralized military and an unpredictable strongman leader whose "emerging hostility" has invited the wrath of the U.S., putting his country's sovereignty at imminent risk.
If you said "Iraq," go sit in the corner with Defence Minister John McCallum.
Try Canada.
That's the chilling picture painted in this week's scathing report by the ex-military men and defence experts who make up the Conference of Defence Associations - a report titled, lest anyone miss the urgency of its content, A Nation at Risk.
The eye-opening document makes the strongest case yet that 30 years of neglect and budget-slashing have left Canada's military dangerously dysfunctional. (This is the same group, remember, that in last year's report, pre-Sept. 11, pointed out our military investment ranks just ahead of Luxembourg's.)
But this is not your usual lament for more military money - the kind Liberals like McCallum and his boss Jean Chretien like to shrug off as whining from special interests.
Rather, it's a clear-eyed look at where years of military neglect leave Canada in the post-Sept. 11 world, and the very real risks we all face thanks to naive leaders who believe a "make-love-not-war" attitude scores them political points.
I'm going to quote at length from it here, because it was upstaged Tuesday by the coinciding release of Auditor General Sheila Fraser's latest attack on government waste and incompetence (which also included some defence horror stories). And because it is, frankly, a must-read.
For his part, McCallum dismissed the report's "apocalyptic language," while the PM blathered something about how he's received a lot of praise for our troops' work in Afghanistan (huh?). None of which addresses its crucial core message (read it for yourself at www.cda-cdai.ca).
It bluntly warns that the Canadian Forces are in a "crisis" that threatens not just their capability but Canada's sovereignty. To cite just one example, the CDA estimates the navy will be so downgraded in three to five years, it "would have no alternative but to concentrate on homeland defence, and even that would have to be conducted under the direction of the United States Navy." As for the army, in 18 months, i.e., by the time Chretien retires, 50% of its weapons and fleet could be grounded "because the purchase of spares has been neither consistent nor adequate."
The U.S. in particular is not amused with our "defence freeloading," the authors warn."The cumulative outlook from their perspective is that Canada has damaged its relations with its chief ally and trading partner, the USA. This is the result of intemperate anti-American statements made by members of the Canadian government and other senior officials and the sharp decline of the Canadian Forces over the past decade ...
"The U.S. perceives that Canada does not recognize the security problem, let alone assign adequate resources to resolve it ... If Canada does not act to protect itself, others, especially the U.S., will do it for us, with all the adverse consequences this implies ...
"Americans cannot understand why the prime minister seems not to be taking advice on foreign affairs and defence effort. They think it is inconceivable his advisers would overlook the damage he is doing. The U.S. does not understand how Canada can do this to itself ... "
In that respect, of course, Americans are not alone. Plenty of us in Canada feel the same way, as do countries like Australia, France and the U.K, all of which have revised their defence strategy and increased spending in recognition of "the new realities," the report notes.
"The USA is preparing for a second terrorist attack. Canada has not considered the consequences of premature detonation on Canadian territory or secondary consequences of weapons of mass destruction," it declares darkly.
Is there a fix? Well, the CDA urges an immediate allocation of $1.5 billion to defence - while noting that of the feds' purported investment of $1.2 billion on "security" in the last budget, only $510 million actually went to the military, $210 million of which had already been spent on the mission to Afghanistan. It also demands a total defence policy review and a new white paper next year. "Only in this way can the serious risks to national sovereignty and well-being be avoided."
Not that the authors are optimistic:
"The only way that the prime minister and his close advisers could be convinced to increase defence spending would be if a major national embarrassment were to occur because of weak Canadian Forces," they write. "In the present situation, this is possible."
I am sure glad that I had the opportunity to move to the USA, I've said it before, Canada is a socialist dictatorship that puts up a good front.
Here is the link to the CDA report, it is rather long because it is in both English & French...you know 2 official languages crap to please the Queerbeckers in Quebec
When are those Canucks going to figure it out? That's one of the first things that happens when you let Liberals run your country. Thirty years is a long time to be foolish!
Might not be a bad idea, but I think we need to capture the U.S. Senate first.
Wise people might read about Canada and say "this shouldn't be allowed to happen here in the US." Then there are the liberals. And their enablers, the greedy people with their hand out ready for your tax dollars. When will they figure it out?
I think that some sort of retrenchment is inevitable whether or not we get tired of the defense freeloaders, and the EU needs to be aware of this much more than Canada. The time for the buildup of regional security infrastructure is now before U.S. economic considerations make it mandatory. The U.S. cannot and will not maintain its worldwide defense expenditure in the defense of a nonexistent empire forever, and self-righteous anti-American rhetoric will not keep the barbarians from the gate.
Except Quebec. And I'm not real thrilled with the eastern provinces either. The western ones however.....
It's like the hard-working brother who has to keep floating his dead beat brother money, just because the family doesn't want to have a homeless relative.
I know that keeps pissing my brother off. 8-)
We had done most of the coastal mop-up, and liberated the low countries while England, Russia, and America chased the Nazi Wehrmacht back to Berlin.
We had the third largest navy on earth.
Today, as we speak, the TOTAL armed personnel in the forces (army, navy and air force combined) is less than 55,000. From a population of just over 30 million.
It's an utter disgrace.

Caterpillar extends FPR Sponsorship to 2005.
January 12, 2004 - Ford Performance Racing (FPR) is delighted to confirm that Caterpillar® has extended their major marketing investment with this leading blue oval V8 Supercar team for a further two years.
According to FPR Managing Director David Flint, this announcement re-iterates the strong relationship that has developed between his young team and this proactive multi-national company.
"Caterpillar was a foundation sponsor of FPR - the company expressed total belief in our plans for the future well before our first car was even built. Caterpillar's support has been integral to the team being able to achieve what no other has done in their inaugural season. We warmly welcome the entire CAT® family of manufacturers and dealers as a long term sponsor of FPR and we plan to return this extended vote of confidence with greater success both on and off the track."
Rob Obliubek, Caterpillar's Global On-Highway Engines Department Manager for the Asia Pacific region, confirms that this extended two year FPR sponsorship represents the company's single most significant marketing investment.
"We are delighted to take this exciting next step with FPR for a further two years following the team's highly successful debut season. The team achieved their goal of finishing in the top five in 2003 and with the move to two cars next season, there is no doubt that the team will be major players in 2004 and beyond," Mr Obliubek said.
"FPR has definitely lived up to the promise that we believed existed when we were first presented with Prodrive's bold V8 Supercar plan. We eagerly await the success that this further two years together will bring for both of our organisations," he added.
Securing the title rights to one of the team's FPR Falcons for the next two years will ensure continued strong CAT brand awareness in Australia and key Asia-Pacific markets, including China. The company will also continue to leverage their FPR V8 Supercar sponsorship through highly effective customer relationship and loyalty programs. This will include the involvement of several major Australian and international divisions of the company.
Caterpillar's Mining, Construction, On-Highway Truck Engine and Parts / Service / Product Support divisions join the CAT Dealer Team in Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia and China as key stakeholders in this strategic marketing alliance with FPR.
CAT FPR Falcon driver Craig Lowndes shares his team's enthusiasm for the forthcoming 2004 V8 Supercar season thanks to this announcement.
"It has been a great experience being a part of the CAT family in 2003. I have had the chance to meet many Caterpillar employees and dealer teams during the year and have seen first hand the level of support that exists for FPR at every level of the company's operations. This is what helps us to make a winning V8 Supercar team and we look forward to an even more exciting future together."
Caterpillar has been building the world's infrastructure for more than 75 years. With annual global sales exceeding US$20.15 billion and manufacturing facilities found in more than 115 locations worldwide, Caterpillar is a leader in every sense of the word.

Is Michael Bay on the Brink of Making a Fourth 'Transformers' Movie?
These days, director Michael Bay's passions are invested heavily in Pain and Gain, a dark comedy about the true story of a group of body-building kidnappers that is seeking Dwayne Johnson and Mark Wahlberg to star. Bay has taken quite an interest in this somewhat offbeat project, which doesn't scream "epic Hollywood blockbuster" as much as the usual Bay movie does. But perhaps he's just been paying his dues since Armageddon, in hopes of earning enough clout with the studios to one day (a rapidly approaching day, at that) be able to create his artistic masterpiece with as large a budget and as permitting a contract as he'd need. But of course, studios aren't entirely on board with him riding out his dream without something else in it for them…Paramount is pushing for a fourth Transformers movie.
Bay has declared no definitive stance on the Trans4mers project. On Bay's website, he stated, "Studio's are passing rumors but I'm not sure what I'm doing? I know I'm going to do Pain and Gain early spring but that's it for right now. I'm leaving all my options on the table. I've got several Studio meetings in the next two weeks." [sic] On the other side of things, however, Vulture is reporting that the director has begun negotiations with the studio about the prospective film.
So what would it take to get Bay on board with another Transformers? Last we heard, Bay's muse Shia LaBeouf stated his intentions to avoid any further Transformer films. To be clear, it's not as though Bay won't be able to make Pain and Gain without also making Transformers 4, but the question is about maintaining a favorable partnership with the studio to whom he is so frugally attached.
So, we might have another Transformers, and we will have a dark comedy about body builders, both at the hands of Michael Bay. The real question is: which will have more explosions?

News story
Home Office rewards police innovation with £50 million
This was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government
All forces in England and Wales benefit from Police Innovation Fund.
Every police force in England and Wales will receive a share of a £50 million Home Office fund for projects aimed at transforming policing through innovation and collaboration.
The successful schemes include investment in body-worn camera, groundbreaking forensics techniques and joint working between the police and fire service.
Forces were awarded money for new approaches to tackle anti-social behaviour and rural crime; a project to help young runaways; and work to improve the way the police interact with people with mental health problems.
New ideas
Policing Minister Mike Penning said:
I am delighted that every police force in the country showed such a positive, forward-thinking attitude and came to us with new ideas and ways of working.
It meant we could allocate £50 million to some really innovative projects and I am already looking forward to visiting forces and seeing the results.
Crime has fallen by more than 10 per cent under this government. I believe we can help the police do their job even better by encouraging them to embrace new technology and build on ideas coming from the grass roots.
The Police Innovation Fund is in its first full year of operation and up to £50 million will be allocated every 12 months.
Earlier this year, the Home Office made a precursor fund of £20 million available to Police and Crime Commissioners.
Each of the 43 police forces in England and Wales will benefit from the Fund this year.
Among the most innovative of the 85 proposals to receive funding this time were:
- A joint bid of £431,000 by Nottinghamshire and Lancashire Police to reduce the processing time for a DNA profile from four or five days to two hours.
- Eight forces – Bedfordshire, Nottinghamshire, the Met, Hampshire, Durham, City of London, Merseyside and North Wales – will share more than £4 million to spend on body worn camera technology.
- The Metropolitan Police successfully bid for £113,000 to help develop a new spray which will be able to quickly identify body fluids at crime scenes.

Yesterday Engadget had an opinion piece on mobile multitasking, once again borrowing my awesome slide on the topic from Mix (hey Michael, where's my royalty cheque? 🙂 ).
A picture tells a thousand words, and I think this one actually does a pretty good job of explaining what happens on Windows Phone 7 (but then again, maybe I'm biased). If your application is running when the user switches to another application (by using the Start menu, or tapping on a notification, or via some other means) then our assumption as a platform is that the user now wants to focus on the new application, and doesn't want the previous one interrupting their experience by grabbing memory, CPU, network bandwidth, or other resources.
Before we suspend the application, we give it some time (exact time TBD) to prepare to be suspended. In this time, the application can save global state to disk, sign-off from web sites, or perform other clean-up operations. In general this should be relatively simple, because the page-based model of Windows Phone applications facilitates a relatively stateless programming model - much of your application's state can be encoded in page URIs (as query-string data) or as small blobs of state stored and retrieved on each page navigation, just like the web.
After your application has finished pausing, it will be suspended and no further user code will execute. Note that you can still have push notifications coming in from the cloud, so the user can be kept up-to-date via toasts or you can have your tile updated with the latest information from the web.
When your application is suspended, it is not killed immediately. If the user returns to the application "soon" then it can be resumed very quickly and the state saved during pause may not even be necessary. But if the user launches other applications that end up needing a lot of memory, your process will be killed and the memory will be relinquished to the foreground application. This is a key difference between Windows Phone 7 and previous versions of Windows Mobile - the foreground application gets access to virtually all the resources on the phone (memory, CPU, etc.) without having to worry about being starved by background apps that are doing random things at unpredictable times in the background.
If your process was not killed, resume is trivial - you don't need to restore any state from disk, but you may need to re-start device features like accelerometer or location, and you may need to re-connect to any web services. Assuming your process was killed, you can use the previously-saved data from pause to re-create your global state, and the per-page state / query-string data to recreate the page state for each page on the back stack.
The end result of all this is that users can switch back and forth between applications and have the illusion of multi-tasking without the downsides of erratic resource usage. Now there are certain multi-tasking scenarios that this model can't mimic, such as persistent location tracking or background music streaming, but for the vast majority of cases users simply want the ability to either get back to where they were (resume a previous task) or to be notified of updates (via toasts). For these scenarios, we think Windows Phone 7 does a great job.

Belvedere Trailer (2010)
02 December 2010 Drama 90 mins
The film deals with the tragedy of the women survivors of the Srebrenica genocide, or rather, the consequences of the horrors they experienced - it is about women whose sole purpose in life is to locate the bones of their loved ones and give them a decent burial. Fifteen years later, they still want just one simple thing - the truth. As a contrast, the film deals with trivialities of modern living, obsessed with different reality shows...

For Greater Glory Reviews
August 11, 2017
For Greater Glory will move the audience and perhaps inspire them.
October 18, 2013
For Greater Glory takes what should have been an involving, even shocking hidden part of history and turns it into a needless epic
September 10, 2012
"For Greater Glory" takes its cues from a bygone era of Technicolor Golden Age epics and delivers a sprawling political drama steeped in old-fashioned Hollywood romanticism.
Full Review | Original Score: 6/10
June 23, 2012
The compelling archival footage, which literally made me gasp aloud, and the incredible, disturbing photos are amazing. Unfortunately, you'll see them only during the end credits of 'For Greater Glory.'
Full Review | Original Score: 2/4
June 15, 2012
It's the kind of now-obscure subject matter that could be fascinating if done well, but here just feels like an obligation. And yeah there's going to be a test, so good luck at not falling asleep in class.
June 10, 2012
The story deserves a better movie than it gets here ...
June 7, 2012
An interesting historical drama that only mildly entertains
Full Review | Original Score: 5/10
June 4, 2012
Curiously, rookie director Dean Wright can't seem to make a struggle for one of the most basic rights all that interesting.
June 3, 2012
The film's length and muddled message will likely keep it from reaching much of an audience, even within the presumed Latino faith-based target.
Full Review | Original Score: 1/5
June 2, 2012
Solemn and fervent,delivering an educational history lesson that defeats itself because of its R-rating.
Full Review | Original Score: 5/10
June 1, 2012
For Greater Glory serves as a timely reminder of just how fragile religious freedom can be.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/4
Top Critic
June 1, 2012
As generic as the title, this historical drama spares no cliche in depicting Mexico's Cristero War of the late 1920.
June 1, 2012
Epic tale about religious freedom gets very bloody.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/5
June 1, 2012
You'll be forgiven (on earth if not in heaven) should you find yourself humming "Onward, Christian Soldiers" as you exit the theatre.
Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5
Top Critic
June 1, 2012
It's the stuff of real life, and of high drama, but Dean Wright's directorial debut translates little of that latter quality to the screen.
Top Critic
June 1, 2012
"For Greater Glory" is at times so heavy-handed that the movie itself seems at war. Unfortunately, the enemy is not just a repressive administration, but the audience.
Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4
Top Critic
June 1, 2012
Despite enough good intentions to pave a four-lane highway, the ardently sincere but dramatically unfocused For Greater Glory plays like a multipart miniseries that has been hacked down to feature length.
Top Critic
June 1, 2012
This historical drama about the little-known Cristero War in 1920s Mexico is more educational than involving.
Top Critic
June 1, 2012
The sometimes painfully sincere and slow-moving "For Greater Glory" clearly aspires to be inspirational, but history won't cooperate.
Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4
Top Critic
June 1, 2012
The result is pretty much as forgettable as the Cristeros War.
Full Review | Original Score: D+

Nathlie Provosty was born in 1981 in Cincinnati, Ohio and studied painting and art history at Maryland Institute College of Art (BFA, 2004) and the University of Pennsylvania (MFA, 2007). The year between her education she lived in India as a Fulbright fellow. In the summer of 2007 she moved to New York. Her first one-person exhibition in the city opened in 2012 at an experimental artist-run gallery called 1:1, and since she has exhibited nationally and internationally including at Nathalie Karg Gallery in New York; A Palazzo Gallery in Italy; Jablonka Maruani Mercier Gallery in Belgium; and Stefan Lundgren Gallery in Spain. The artist's distinctions include the Rosenthal Award of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and a Marie Walsh Sharpe Space Program studio residency.Provosty's work explores paradox with a particular attention to formal nuance. Known for highly sensual, abstract oil paintings that appear to be word forms, body fragments, or unidentifiable shapes, their ambiguities are grounded by an involved relationship to the materiality of paint and an investigation of color. Over time these works have opened into an expanded vocabulary of images and ideas. In 2016 Bill Goldston invited the artist to work with ULAE, where Provosty completed her first edition.

Official Concedes an Error With Asbestos From Blast
Published: December 13, 1989
A top New York City environmental official acknowledged yesterday that a four-day delay in notifying Gramercy Park residents that a steam-pipe explosion had contaminated their neighborhood with asbestos was partly the result of ''a very unfortunate misdiagnosis'' by the city's own experts.
''Tests were not taken in enough difficult places to find the material,'' said Deputy Commissioner Richard Mendes of the Department of Environmental Protection, whose initial tests at the site failed to detect the asbestos. ''We did not take enough samples - otherwise we would have found the asbestos.''
Last September, Mayor Edward I. Koch placed principal blame for the delay on the Consolidated Edison Company, which he said had ''misled'' the city and the residents by failing to disclose that the utility's own tests had revealed asbestos contamination. Processed by Con Edison
Mr. Mendes, the first of several witnesses called yesterday to testify before the City Council's environmental protection committee, said that as a result of the misdiagnosis, his agency had revised its asbestos response procedures and in the future would take more samples, using the city's own laboratory, in any similar cases in the future.
The city's samples from the steam-pipe blast - all of which came up negative - were processed at Consolidated Edison's laboratory in Astoria, Queens.
Consolidated Edison officials, while conceding that they failed to tell the public of the presence of asbestos, have insisted that they told city officials that 6 of 21 samples of mud and debris had tested positive for asbestos.
Mr. Koch and other officials have flatly denied Con Edison's assertions, and the matter is now under investigation by a number of agencies, including the United States Attorney's office in Manhattan, the Federal Environmental Protection Agency and the Office of Occupational Safety and Health. Residents' Own Tests
An estimated 176 pounds of amosite, an especially hazardous form of asbestos used to insulate the steam pipe, was blown into the air by the force of the Aug. 19 blast, which occurred as a Consolidated Edison crew was turning the steam back on. The blast killed two workers and a woman sleeping in her apartment.
More than 400 people, driven from their homes by the explosion, were forced to evacuate a second time, on Aug. 23, after the tenants of one of the most seriously contaminated buildings, at 32 Gramercy Park South, took their own tests and found the asbestos.
Mr. Mendes, under questioning by City Councilwoman Carol Greitzer, a Democrat whose district includes Gramercy Park, confirmed that since 1986 the city's policy has been to treat all steam-pipe incidents ''as if asbestos were released.''
The policy was first described in a May 1986 report by Police Commissioner Benjamin Ward after a major steam-pipe explosion on April 11, 1986 - one of at least 17 such blasts since 1973 - which spread high levels of asbestos-laden mud along Eighth Avenue from West 55th to 58th Street.
Since the Ward report, ''It's always been our posture to presume the presence of asbestos,'' Mr. Mendes said. ''Unfortunately, our misdiagnosis led our presumption in the wrong direction.''

THE last surviving parrots of a mass pesticide poisoning have been released in central western NSW.
The birds were rescued by wildlife welfare group WIRES from among the bodies of about 700 mostly little corellas, galahs and sulphur-crested cockatoos poisoned near Dubbo earlier this month.
NSW Environment Protection Authority testing found the birds in the Troy Reserve Area had likely ingested Fenthion, a pesticide used to kill insects and small non-native birds.
On Thursday, WIRES released the last of the 28 surviving native parrots from Sandy Beach, Dubbo.
WIRES Dubbo chair Ann Mara told AAP many of the birds had been close to death.
Some of them had been partially eaten alive by predators, she said.
"They were in a lot of pain."
"There was horrible screaming noises coming out of them and some of them had been already partly preyed upon."
The source of the poison is unknown and investigations are ongoing.
No dead birds have been reported in the area for five days and the poison is no longer thought to be a threat.
"We can't take our wildlife for granted," Ms Mara said.
"Over the period of a few days we lost an enormous amount of birds.
"Just because they're plentiful now doesn't mean they'll always be."
