James O'Keefe is arguably one 0f the bravest men in this country. He has struck time and again at the corruption in American politics through his Project Veritas. Taking on the Clinton Mafia is a VERY dangerous endeavor. Say prayers for this man and his staff. I'm sure there are poisoned darts being sharpened at this moment.
This is his 1st video in a series on the Clinton campaign election corruption. I'll post others as they are released.
Rigging the Election – Video I: Clinton Campaign and
DNC Incite Violence at Trump Rallies
Dirty Tricks Operative Unwittingly Provides Dark Money Trail to the DNC and Clinton Campaign
Violence at Trump Rallies Traced to Clinton Campaign and the DNC Through Process Called Birddogging
Shady Coordinated Communications Chain Between DNC, Clinton Campaign, Hillary Clinton's Super PAC and Other Organizations Revealed
Key Clinton Operative: "It doesn't matter what the friggin' legal and ethics people say, we need to win this motherfucker"
Project Veritas Action has just released the first video in a multi-part series which exposes the dark secrets at the highest levels of the DNC and Clinton presidential campaign. Using hidden cameras, undercover journalists reveal key players coordinating clandestine operations in support of Hillary Clinton's campaign. The video, supported by emails recently released by WikiLeaks, shows that the dirty tricks, lines of communications and the money trail lead all the way to the top.
The video discloses numerous examples of behind-the-scenes shady practices with consequences most Americans have seen on national television at Donald Trump campaign rallies across the country. What the media hasn't reported is that the Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee has been directing these activities with, at very best, a very thin veil of plausible deniability. This series of videos is the culmination of a year-long investigation by the undercover journalists at Project Veritas Action.

Aggregate Industries, a wholly owned subsidiary of Holcim Ltd, has agreed to acquire 100 per cent of Meyer Material Company (Meyer) for US$231m from US Equity Partners, LP and Park Avenue Equity Partners, LP. Completion of the acquisition is anticipated to occur in July 2006 subject to regulatory approval.
Meyer, based near Chicago in Illinois, is a leading supplier of aggregates, ready-mix concrete and concrete paving products. The company's primary markets are located in the Northwestern part of Metropolitan Chicago and Southeastern Wisconsin. Meyer operates six sand and gravel pits as well as 25 ready-mix concrete plants and a modern concrete paving products manufacturing facility.
Meyer has 125Mt of reserves as well as considerable underground reserves which may be considered for future development. The company employs about 750 people.
Last year, Meyer sold approximately 5Mt of aggregates, 1.5 million cubic meters of ready-mix concrete and 0.5 million square meters of concrete paving and retaining wall systems. In 2005, net sales reached approximately US$190m.
The acquisition of this well positioned construction materials company strengthens Aggregate Industries' aggregates and related businesses positions in the US. Meyer provides a new platform for the future growth of the Holcim Group in the fast growing suburbs of Chicago, the third largest city in the US. In addition, Holcim expects to achieve significant synergies from more efficient cement logistics and product optimization at Holcim US. Meyer is to be fully integrated into Aggregate Industries' US operations and will be managed as a new region. This acquisition reinforces
Holcim's dual product strategy centering on cement and aggregates in the US.

Catholic Charities USA has received two top rankings by respected nonprofit publications. It was ranked the second-largest nonprofit organization in the United States, by The NonProfit Times, and The Chronicle of Philanthropy ranked it 10th among the nation's largest fundraising organizations.
Judy Bokorney, public information officer for Catholic Charities for the Diocese of Venice, Florida, shared the news in a recent issue of The Sun.
To be included in the "NPT 100," nonprofits must raise at least 10 percent of their total revenue from public sources, such as individual donors and foundations. The Chronicle ranks the nation's largest nonprofit groups by how much money they raise from private sources.
In 2004, the combined revenue of the Catholic Charities network was $3,189,302,436, more than $580 million came from private donations, reported Bokorney.
According to the public information officer, the network's total expenses for 2004 were $3,035,709,486; nearly 90 percent of all revenue was spent on programs and services, helping 7.1 million people, and making Catholic Charities one of the most efficient charities in the country.
For example, Catholic Charities in the Diocese of Venice uses 92 cents of every dollar donated for direct services. As a result, this year the organization was awarded the top four-star rating by Charity Navigator, an independent evaluator of charities, said Bokorney.
Catholic Charities continues to seek funds to help those who have suffered the devastation of the recent hurricanes. Citizens are invited to contribute to the organization's Christmas Appeal.

Hi I need an advise about how to organize general approach for components that I use in an application.
I have some pre-conditions that I should mention:
Right now the application is old-fashioned multi-page Java application that uses JSP. What we are doing right now is migrating some pieces that we can to canjs. It means that components that I create should have an ability to be used in canjs pages (stache) and in just plain HTML pages with plain JS (or jQuery).
I'm using canjs 2.2.9 I know that its pretty old, but unfortunately this is something that I can't change in the nearest future.
I created small component (still WIP, but can represent my question):https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25491580/can-test/index.html(Sorry it's not JSBin because there are different files, folders so it was easier to share in that way, but I can probably post it on Github if its easier than checking sources in devtools)
Basically this is textarea that should count amount of characters, change height and react when character limit exceeds (twitter / facebook like).
I would like to find a way how to react on event that I dispatch here:
isLimitExceeded: {
type: 'boolean',
set: function (newValue) {
if (this.isLimitExceeded !== newValue) {
can.event.dispatch.call(this, 'super-input:limitStatusChange');
return newValue;
(actually I can implement something different, but event looks straightforward way for organizing communication to me)
The only way that I found is to do something like this:
can.event.on.call(can.viewModel(element.find('super-input')), 'super-input:limitStatusChange', function() {
// do some logic
For parent component I have to do this in parent component inserted event in order to ensure that we have super-input inside:
tag: 'comment-adder',
template: can.view('/t_static/can-components/comments/comment/comment-adder/comment-adder.template.stache'),
viewModel: commentAdderViewModel,
leakScope: false,
events: {
inserted: function (element) {
can.event.on.call(can.viewModel(element.find('super-input')), 'super-input:limitStatusChange', function () {
// do some logic
And outside...well I guess I just need to ensure that this DOM element exist and do something similar.
This approach looks suspicious to me Is it correct to do something like that ? I know that there is better viewBindings available in canjs > 2.3.x but it won't help if I would like to listen to this event from some other part of page that isn't can.js component.
canjs > 2.3.x
Besides if I need to set / get component data from JS that isn't part of can application I also use similar approach:
can.viewModel($('super-input')).attr('message', 'new message');
Is it ok to do this, because this construciton can.viewModel(element) seems like I use something internal, I shouldn't build my solution on top of such calls ?
Hi @Lighttree,
Sorry you didn't get a response sooner!
You're right, I think there's a better way to do this. Instead of using events, I would bind to the properties you're interested in and let the observables take care of the rest.
isLimitExceeded could just be a getter:
isLimitExceeded: {
type: 'boolean',
get: function() {
return this.attr('messageLength') > this.attr('limit');
Then you can bind to that property in the parent component, something like: <super-input isLimitExceeded="{isLimitExceeded}" />
<super-input isLimitExceeded="{isLimitExceeded}" />
Then, in the parent component, instead of setting the event listener up in inserted, your logic can go… wherever it needs to depending on what you want to do. isLimitExceeded will be an observable so anything in your viewModel can access it (this.attr('isLimitExceeded')) and those properties will be refreshed whenever isLimitExceeded changes.
Let me know if that makes sense. If you're able to provide a JS Bin (or something like it) with your code, I'd be happy to make changes to better explain the ideas.
Yup, totally ok if you need to access stuff outside of CanJS.
Wow. In the very beginning I was thinking that you are referring to {^to-parent} binding in 2.3.x and I wasn't able to use it. But I've tried this syntax that you provided...and this:is-limit-exceeded="{isLimitExceeded}" actually shared this property from super-input to parent component.But...why !? I can't find any place where such behavior described for 2.2.9.
Ok, I think I found the place in 2.3.x docs, where this syntax marked as "deprecated", but didn't found in 2.2.9

Marriage and the Supreme Court
They were wrong about slavery and wrong about abortion, and now the Supreme Court is wrong about marriage. How should conservatives respond? This past month on Eagle Forum Live, Phyllis Schlafly interviewed Dr. Jay Richards about the high court's ruling on the definition of marriage.
On June 26, homosexuals celebrated in front of the Supreme Court, waving the rainbow flag and rushing to courthouses all over America to demand marriage licenses. The Supreme Court held that the 14th amendment of the Constitution requires every state to license homosexual unions as marriage. However, the 14th amendment has long been known for offering protection to former slaves after the Civil War – and it doesn't even mention marriage!
Men and women need each other: the genders complement and complete each other. "Marriage is what it is," Dr. Richards pointed out in a piece he recently authored. "…the high court has now set American jurisprudence against human nature itself." Meanwhile, there are children who will be deprived of a mother or a father because of what happened at the Supreme Court: the decision has real implications for the most vulnerable Americans.
Richards outlined five things that American Christians should do in response to the ruling: pray unceasingly, act consistently, think clearly, love unconditionally, and stand together, suffering the consequences. "All of us who are married need to model what marriage is supposed to look like," he urged.
"The best defense in this case is a good offense." Richards concluded. "Besides, we have a responsibility to our culture and to our fellow Americans, even if at the moment they hate us for it! It's time for a counter-offensive. Real love in this case means that we must stand. We must suffer."
Dr. Jay Richards is a political philosopher, a graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary, and a New York Times bestselling author. He has authored an article at stream.org titled The Supreme Court Redefines Marriage: What We Must Do. You can find the entire conversation between Phyllis Schlafly and Dr. Jay Richards by visiting the radio archives page here.

Bubbling away under Black Butter's roster is Sam Sure – further evidence of the prolific label's strive for supporting specialist talent not confined solely to the house/bass movement.
Sam may not have a huge discography to his name (as yet, anyway), but the work he's delivered to-date so far already outweighs his peers when it comes to striking quality. Via [the both brilliant] Cracks and Hunger, the youngster managed to secure a support slot for Years and Years' summer stint, and it was not long after that he harked back to the late-90s with his UKG/soul-inspired Me & You (which we're still constantly spinning).
Some may also recognise Sam's work away from the speakers – having "got into graffiti" when he was at school, the artist's work has since been a staple around London (the eager-eyes amongst you may have noticed his talents as the background in Fekky & Skepta's Way Too Much).
The talent is obviously there, and having the support of such tastemakers as Zane Lowe and Annie Mac isn't something that comes by that easily, so it's definitely a sign you need to stay locked to this guy.
Grab a listen to Me & You below; you'll probably fall for his work the second you lay ears on it!

EU Threatens Member States With Fines Over Failure To Accept 160,000 Syrian Refugees
For months now, Europe Union member states have been devastated by numerous terrorist attacks and acts of violent crime, many of which were perpetrated at the hands of people who sought asylum from persecution in their home countries in the Middle East and Northern Africa. Here is just a small sample of our headlines from the past couple of months:
12 Dead, 48 Injured After Pakistan-Born Refugee Rammed Truck Into Berlin Christmas Market
Machete-Wielding Man Shot At Paris Louvre After Attacking Soldier, Shouting "Allahu Akbar"
"War In Paris" – ISIS Claims Responsibility For Deadly Attacks Killing 127: The Full Summary
ISIS Mastermind Behind Istanbul Terrorist Attack Was A "Refugee" Protected By Europe
Sweden Creates 55 "No-Go Zones" As It Loses Control Of Refugee Crisis
But despite the violence that seems to follow Europe's growing migrant population, European Migration Commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos says that member states are falling short of fulfilling "their duty" to help international refugees. As such, Avramopoulos has threatened economic penalties as early as September for states that refuse to accept their 'fair share' of 160,000 Syrian refugees currently residing in Italy and Greece. Per Yahoo News:
The EU on Thursday stepped up warnings that countries could be punished if they fail to share the burden of mainly Syrian refugees stranded in Greece and Italy.
Migration Commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos said member states had until September to take in 160,000 Syrian and other refugees from the two countries, which have been on the frontline of the migration crisis.
So far only 13,500 have been relocated in a process bogged down by general inertia and resistance from Eastern European states which oppose Muslim immigration.
"If we don't have tangible efforts by September… the commission will not hesitate to make use of its power," Avramopoulos, who is Greece's EU commissioner, told a news conference.
The EU has been trying to convince members states "to do their duty," he said.
"But if it is not the case in the future, infringements might be an option," he said.
Several Eastern European countries like Hungary and Slovakia have proposed paying "solidarity" contributions instead of actually taking in any migrants. But others, such as France and Germany, insist that no country can shirk its duty to admit a minimum number of refugees under the plan, which was pushed through in September 2015.
Meanwhile, confirming what most of us deduced long ago via the application of just a bit of common sense, Europol and Frontex, Europe's border and coast guard agency, recently admitted that their intelligence indicates coordinated efforts on the part of ISIS to recruit asylum seekers, both in Syria and in migrant camps after they've already reached Europe, to carry out terrorist attacks. In a report published by Europol, counter-terrorism experts warned that, among other things, "Syrian refugee diaspora may become vulnerable to radicalisation once in Europe and may be specifically targeted by Islamic extremist recruiters."
- Radicalised persons are not necessarily profound believers
- Elements of the (Sunni Muslim) Syrian refugee diaspora may become vulnerable to radicalisation once in Europe and may be specifically targeted by Islamic extremist recruiters
- The majority of attacks claimed by IS appear to be masterminded and perpetrated by individuals inspired by IS, rather than those who work with the organisation directly
- Intelligence suggests that IS has assembled teams in Syria which are sent to the EU tasked with carrying out attacks
- Training possibilities for IS are believed to be decreasing in Syria
The report went on to note that "German authorities were aware of around 300 recorded attempts made by jihadists to recruit refugees" as of April 2016 while Merkel continued to relentlessly push her "open-border" policies.
The majority of attacks carried out in the name of IS appear to have been masterminded and performed by individuals who were inspired by IS, rather than those who worked with the terrorist organisation directly. Intelligence suggests, however, that IS has also put together teams in Syria which are sent to the EU tasked with carrying out attacks. It is believed that this 'external terrorism network', began sending fighters abroad two years ago.
Given that it is in the interests of IS to inflame the migration crisis to polarise the EU population and turn sections of it against those seeking asylum, there is a risk of some infiltration of refugee camps and other groups. The extent of this is unknown, however, making the subject susceptible to exaggeration and exploitation especially by populist factions and (extreme) right-wing parties. A real and imminent danger is the possibility of elements of the (Sunni Muslim) Syrian refugee diaspora becoming vulnerable to radicalisation once in Europe and being specifically targeted by Islamic extremist recruiters. It is believed that a number of jihadists are travelling through Europe for this purpose. According to unconfirmed information, German authorities were aware of around 300 recorded attempts made by jihadists to recruit refugees who were trying to enter Europe by April 2016.
But despite all of the evidence to the contrary, we're sure this next wave of 160,000 migrants are all peaceful folks who just want their opportunity to assimilate and succeed in western culture.

The 4th Industrial Revolution And A Jobless Future – A Good Thing?
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is in full swing and it estimated to destroy up to 50% of the jobs we have today – the big question is should we destroy 100% of jobs and make the world a better place?
Is The Tyranny Of A Cashless Society Coming?
Via Capt. William E Simpson of WesternJournalism.com,
Like many people, I am a careful person when it comes to digital commerce, yet nonetheless I had two of my credit cards hacked (twice in the last four years) — one time by a supposedly reliable online retail company, another time when I rented a trailer. And both times, it required an incredible amount of time, police reports, phone calls, etc., just to get back to square one and get my money back.
But my experience was not unusual. Nearly 18 million Americans suffered from some form of identity theft in 2014 alone.
Digital commerce and credit cards are very problematic and are not the panacea that companies and the government want the public to believe.
Looking to a future in which governments abolish cash in useful denominations, it follows that they will then focus on eliminating personal and commercial commerce through the use of compact high-value commodities such as gold and silver, a natural progression if $100 bills are taken out of circulation in the United States.
People today who are living in the legacy of the Barack Obama economy already need a fistful of $20 bills just to buy a week's supply of groceries. And it's easy to spend $400 a week on fresh groceries for two people, especially if you buy premium products and organic.
If we consider the increasing trend where banks, institutions and big retailers are regularly hacked, combined with identity theft, digital commerce and credit cards aren't all they're cracked up to be, and in reality are posing an ever-increasing level of liability on all levels through their use.
The relatively few people who may ultimately control all of the digital wealth of Americans will virtually have control of all the people in a cashless society. This results in a definite loss of freedom and liberty.
There are many, many other ways for law enforcement to hammer criminals and curtail their enterprises, if that is truly the goal. But any method that inhibits or erodes the freedoms of Americans in any way, including limiting or infringing upon person-to-person commerce and personal privacy in any manner, is to be shunned and runs counter to the intents and spirit of our beloved U.S. Constitution.
Digital currency transactions in lieu of cash would allow virtually 100 percent tracking of all Americans, including law-abiding citizens and all that we do.
We have already learned over the past eight years of the Obama-led government that governments don't necessarily work for or even represent the will of the people. So how can anyone justify giving the government this much power over Americans? There is no such justification.
The vast majority of Americans are not criminals, and therefore any action by government that affects or targets the vast majority of people in order to deal with a small factional percentage of criminals in the population is manifestly unfair. Politicians simply need to do the jobs they are being paid to do, and come up with anti-criminal tactics that strictly focus upon the bad actors, not the majority of law-abiding Americans.
If the minds behind a cashless society are allowed to have their way, America would become little more a monumental ant farm, where the elitist class studies Americans to a much greater extent than ever before — how we move around and what we do, use, eat, watch and listen to — and then uses this deeply insightful personal information, potentially to plot how to control everyone. Things like if we're allowed to be born (abortions already control this to some extent), how long we get to live, and what we are allowed to do in between. Orwellian, yes, but possible nonetheless.
Brazil played around in past decades on many occasions with reissuing, devaluing and recalling currency to limit amounts in circulation. And the Marxists paid close attention to that exercise.
However, India's currency games are more immediate and could have a sinister effect, since it is already a socialist state and we know how fond socialists and communists are of controlling all aspects of their populations.
Here's a video that should be alarming.
Is India executing a plan similar to what may soon be in the works for Americans?
I have to say, it's looking like living in the countryside on a piece of land that provides sustainable sustenance and a firewall from a population that may recoil and strike out in anger sometime soon is the only viable path to surviving past what may be an ugly and austere future. Anyone who cares to look at the news these days will see riots, murders and unrest all around inside the United States, a result of numerous factors.
Even as much as many Americans admire and respect President Donald Trump, the Marxist-socialist momentum that has already metastasized in America might be too much for him and his team to overcome. Our new president definitely needs our continued strong support more than ever.
Smile and pray for the best, but adequately prepare for the worst.

The blockade on Gaza Strip has been called the "longest in history", and it has been almost seven years that the Palestinians have been suffocating by the Israeli embargo. While the Occupation is cunningly imposing collective punishment on the Palestinian people, the resistance keeps on the track more powerfully than ever. These people have shown they are not doomed to oblivion, never, ever. The series "At the Heart of a Siege" deals with the issue of Gaza Siege from new angles most of which have not been dealt with so far. The series includes six episodes each probing into a singular facet of the issues related to the blockade of the Gaza Strip in depth. "The Drug Assault" touches upon new fronts in the Occupation-Palestine conflict where the Occupation employs drug trafficking in the whole area.
Drugs Interviews
Narration: The Gaza Strip has an area of 360 square km, and it's one of the most populated places in the world. Israel withdrew from the strip in 2005. However, the land, the water, and the air of the strip have remained under the Israeli control. The Gaza Strip is connected to Israel by 5 crossings for people and goods. Those 5 crossings are now blocked, after the siege imposed, after Hamas won the elections 8 years ago. Israel allowed the opening of 2 crossings. The only independent crossing is the Rafah terminal that connects Gaza and Egypt and used only for people. The Rafah crossing is closed most of the year. Therefore, Gazans had to bring food and medical supplies through tunnels between Gaza and Egypt. After the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip that destroyed a massive portion of the Palestinian security bodies; especially the police, trading of different kinds of drugs was unprecedentedly active. This trade was active through networks and people; some of them had connections with Israel. They flooded Gaza with many types of drugs in addition to hallucination pills in an attempt to destroy the Palestinian society, specially its youth by spreading moral decay and family disintegration. This has caused a new struggle that Israel created to destroy the Palestinian youth and generate drug dealing
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Saadi Alsheikh Khalil, Director at Media & Public Relations Office: "The conflict between us and Israel isn't by weapons and power. It's a war on this generation that aims at destroying it and making it forget its homeland, sacred sites, and heritage and that dignity should be preserved, or forget to seek freedom. Therefore, Israel contributes the most to the smuggling of drugs that destroys the generation."
Narration: Israel also seeks knocking down the determination of Gaza government that strives for preventing and stopping this phenomenon even from a tent or a temporal office.
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Dealer: "I have worked with a famous drug trader from the Green Line of Israel. It's for sure that he bought drugs from an Israeli trader or a Jewish trader whose job was to provide the Gaza Strip with the biggest amount of drugs."
Narration: The conflict between Gaza and Israel is not only military or for security reasons. It is gone further: It's the conflict of drugs. Israel is trying to destroy the morale and the Palestinian's resistance by targeting the young generation. This generation has the greatest growth rate in the world. In Gaza, people who're younger than 19 years old are 51% are of the total population. Gaza. This is Karam abu Salem Crossing; one of the main crossings that connect the strip with Israel.
Narration: Most of the goods that come to the strip pass through it. Israel tries to fill Palestine and the strip with drugs through the goods that come by trailers. The General Directorate for Combating Drugs plays a vital role and is present at this crossing, as they search for drugs. They exert efforts in this field
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Dealer: "We have passed through the Karmabu Salem crossing before. With the help of some people who used to go to Israel from time to time, we brought Ecstasy pills and other kinds of drug pills. We brought them here to the strip."
Narration: This is the sea border between the Palestinian and Egyptian water made by these markers. Lately, the Egyptian army has destroyed many tunnels made between Gaza and Egypt. Thus, smuggling drugs has nearly stopped. Israel smuggled drugs to Sinai, then to Gaza through the tunnels. After that, smugglers started smuggling with fishing boats in the Palestinian water.
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Police forces: "From Fahed 42 to Fahed 2, Are you receiving that?
Fahed 2 to Fahed 42. I got it.
I am with Fahed 45 in an inspection mission, you got that?
Copy that, Fahed 42. Follow with that and keep me posted, you got that?"
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Khalil Timraz, Director, Combating Drugs Office: "The department has to send one officer of those who were investigating with you yesterday to every department. There must be a force of women police and a force of order maintenance, a force of drugs combating, and K9. you should contact the Gaza branch and its forces to coordinate with the Zaitoun branch. Abu-Mohammed is going to the second house. That's good. House 3 is for Momen. We should specify the point because the surrounding areas are broad as we saw on the maps."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Police forces: "I should inform you that special Fahed 42 has gone to search a house. You got that? Copy that. We are following that."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Khadija Moheisen, Sergeant, Woman Police: "Our team has to enter the house first to give the women the chance to cover themselves and then we search the house. We assure the women, cool them off and ask them to assure the children."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Wala's Hassan, Sergeant, Woman Police: "We take the woman to a room and search her. It happens that we find women are hiding things in their clothes, or things nobody suspects."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Saadi Alsheikh Khalil, Director at Media & Public Relations Office: "You have to keep in mind that we're dealing with the most dangerous sector. Drug dealers are criminal, not only in the strip, but also all over the world. A drug dealer is willing to fight, shoot and be violent. Sometimes, they shoot at the police forces when they go to search. However, we get everything under control on the spot."
Narration: For years, some Palestinian security bodies accuse the Israeli intelligence for the recruitment of weak Palestinian youth, or those who do not have experience in life. Who become drug dealers and smugglers, and usually end up being exposed by Palestinian security bodies and be trailed and finally go to jail.
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Ayoub Abushaer, Police Spokesperson: "We, in the police force, discover through interrogations that there is a direct communication between some people in the Gaza Strip and the Israeli intelligence for the sake of bringing these drugs to our nation in the strip. They try to recruit our youth using these drugs."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Dealer: "Most of the drugs we used to bring to the strip and was hidden before, were wrapped in plastic bags with Hebrew writing. This is the biggest evidence that the trader who brought these drugs was Israeli. One day, I talked about this to the trader who sells me drugs. The great drug trader who used supply me and supply the trader who contacted me was a known Israeli trader."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Addict: "Our neighbor used green pills, and I used to ask him about them.
He would say they were Tramadol and stimulants, then I wanted to try them. I asked him to give me some, he immediately gave me one pill for free. That pill made me happy, full of energy, relaxed, and comfortable sleeping. I used to be sleepless, but then I could sleep. Gradually, I started visiting that man and asking him if he had some of the pills, and he would say no, I'll bring you some later. Then I increased the dose, every couple of days or daily. I became an addict after only 3 weeks."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Dealer: "The way we used to bring drugs was by bringing them inside other goods we bring to the Gaza Strip. The Israeli trader would hide them himself because no one can touch the goods coming to us but him. I mean he was hiding these goods in wood boards. He would empty the internal part of the board, and then stuff it with drugs. He would also put drugs inside vehicle tires or the clothes they used to bring to us as second-hand clothes sold in closeout sales. All what we would know was that some Israeli companies make closeout sales at the end of the year, then traders would hide drugs in the lining of clothes"
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Addict: "We were told that the pill costs lots of money, like 100 dollars and then we bought it for 2 or 3 shekels. This means that it's planed, as dealers work through the "Mossad" and provide drugs with low prices and are even ready to give it for free. Young men stopped thinking. Personally speaking, if there's bombing after I take those pills, I don't care at all. Previously, when I heard about a martyr, I would feel bad, or goes watch the news of any bombing. I used to feel bad at the scenes of dead children, but after using drugs, those scenes became normal."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Ahmed Sharqawi, Psychiatrist: "When the person becomes an addict, and has his motivation changed and moved towards his addiction, he becomes easy to control. Then becomes a doll controlled by whoever sends him these drugs. This person becomes numb as he's a drug user."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Addict: "I used to think that it was fine if Israel would destroy all of Gaza as long as I was under the effect of drugs. This is all that the Israelis seek, that's why they allow the drugs in the strip. They want us to be unconscious of our cause."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Ayoub Abushaer, Police Spokesperson: "Certainly, the occupation is exerting great efforts attempting to recruit the Palestinian youth by bringing these drugs into the Palestinian land either into the Gaza Strip or other places."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Hassan Swerki, General Directorate for Combating Drugs: "When the new law was issued in 2013, with the daily follow-up reports from the different governorates, we witnessed a noticeable decrease in the number of drugs cases. The new law of 2013 contains harsh punishments."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Addict: "I was only thinking of how to get drugs. I never thought of marriage or my future. A normal young man would think of his future at night, getting married, or starting a business. For me, I only thought of how to get drugs the next day. After using pills, I wanted to try other drugs like cannabis and so"
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Ahmed Sharqawi, Psychiatrist: "The addict's god and idol becomes "addiction". They would kill their mothers or siblings and steal if we're talking on a social level. Psychologically, they work and live just to use drugs. The physical effects are obvious: there are psychological troubles, and mental disorders. There are psychotic syndrome and mental illnesses."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Addict: "I want to get rid of this addiction because it's destructive. It made me steal from my family and abuse them. Drugs make one steal to have the money for pills. And maybe if one sees a person who has few pills, he would kill him for the sake of the pills."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Ahmed Sharqawi, Psychiatrist: "Hallucinogens" are cannabis and extacy. These "Hallucinogens" affect the consciousness as one may see his son and think he's a cat. I recall the story of a man who saw his son, but came to his mind that it wasn't true. He thought it was a cat and threw it away. Eventually, this kid died because of falling down and having head injuries. Do you see? The problem is complicated, broad, and dangerous it is considered one of the most powerful weapons. It's a war, epidemic, and a disease. It's a crime."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Addict: "Addiction destroys health and weakens eyesight and hearing. It makes one not concentrate, so if one asks a question, the addict would forget the answer. One forgets what happened the previous day and things like one's birthday and closet people. In addition, one becomes dull with no feelings."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Imad Fayoumi, Neurology Specialist: "When drugs are not used properly or misused, they cause many damages and symptoms like fainting and memory loss. Drugs may also cause cramps and many heart attacks. These drugs and their addiction lead to arteriosclerosis and clogging the arteries that supply the heart. Moreover, drug addicts do not eat well and do not drink lots of liquids; this leads to dehydration which leads to Kidney failure and Kidney dialysis. Whoever wants to get rid of this addiction has to attend Addiction treatment centers. I know many people who have quit this and now living a normal good life. In this condition, there must be strong determination for addicts and courage to go to those specialists to get rid of this bad habit or addiction."
Narration: Along with raiding drug dealers, and the Combating of drugs, the Palestinian government in the strip launches awareness campaigns among youth to protect them from this danger. These campaigns are implemented in schools, clubs, gatherings, and mosques. The NGOs play a great role in recovering from addiction.
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Ghassan Awad, Grug Rehabilitation Institute: "The drugs recovery program starts immediately after the end of the routine procedures related to entering the institution. The program continues for 30-40 days for most cases. Most of the addicts are young men aged 18-30 years."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Addict: "I regret it because I lost my job, and my chance of getting married. I lost my life and everything. My family doesn't trust me anymore because of drugs."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Imad Fayoumi, Neurology Specialist: "There are intensive programs conducted by specialized doctors for those patients. There are specific intensive programs to treat drug addicts. Of course, when people first quit drugs, they experience many symptoms like sever slimness, headache and sleeplessness. These symptoms are called the symptoms of drugs quitting. They are transient and happen for a limited number of days. Doctors then give these patients alternatives that do not lead to addiction on which they depend for a certain period of time until they fully quit drugs."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Drug Dealer: "I regret this because drugs were the reason that brought me here in the prison, it's the cause of all my troubles and poverty, I advise everyone no to choose this way because it's wrong and leads us to doom and destruction."
Narration: The General Directorate for Combating Drugs collects the drugs they catch after the raids they implement. After receiving these drugs from the judicial system after the trials, these drugs are being ruined using special ovens and with the presence of many official entities and media.
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Imad Hamatto, Muslim Preacher: "There must be two barriers between us and drugs: the first is religious by fearing Allah because it's prohibited. The other is a psychological barrier against the culture of the occupation that aims at destroying what remains of our ethics by spreading drugs. They want us to become a nation of no values and morals and a nation that doesn't care about sacred places or rights. Because of our religion and patriotism, we reject the dealing with the occupier and its culture. Thus, forbidding drugs is connected to religious and patriotism."
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Ayoub Abushaer, Police Spokesperson: "The Israeli enemy is trying to exploit drug users then trying to recruit them. Therefore, I appeal to our nation and youth to avoid this lesion and not to use drugs."
Narration: In addition to the government and the official confrontation of drug dealing, the Palestinian resistance with its different parties participates in preventing the entrance of drugs and stopping smugglers. That's added to their duty of protecting the frontiers
SOUNDBITE [Arabic], Palestinian Fighter: "The Zionist occupation is continuously trying to search for new ways to break the internal front of the Palestinians. Its past attempts didn't succeed by bombing the strip, as they received painful attacks from the Palestinian resistance that couldn't be confronted. So they're trying to fight through weakening our youth by drug smuggling. Drugs affect the youth minds and pull them away from their cause, here's where we have to take action. We have to protect the borders in an attempt of preventing the dealers from bringing drugs or Tramadol into the strip."

Multinational financial services provider pulls out all the stops to put clients first
Hong Kong not only welcomes thousands of visitors every month, but is also well geared to supporting business activities through its infrastructure.
"Operating in a mature and free international financial hub, which is uniquely positioned as a gateway to the global financial services market, we offer a range of financial products to suit different customer demands," says Amy Choi, director of sales and distribution, Citibank Global Consumer Group, Hong Kong.
Citibank's products include its tailor-made Citigold Global Banking package, which offers borderless privileged banking services and preferential treatment for its customers worldwide. Via Citigold Global Banking, customers enjoy special banking services at 550 Citigold centres in 36 countries and territories around the world.
A practical advantage for business travellers is complimentary access to Citigold centres worldwide, providing full office facilities such as local telephone and fax services, as well as meeting rooms.
Citigold clients are also provided with protection in case of unexpected problems while travelling. Travellers who lose a wallet, for example, can access up to US$10,000 of emergency cash through a streamlined process at local Citigold centres.
"Good services and products alone are not enough," Ms Choi points out. "What really makes Hong Kong stand out is the hard-working, diligent and flexible workforce."
Service excellence
While it is relatively straightforward to follow instructions and guidelines taught in training sessions or detailed in service manuals, it is the effort put in by employees that leads to excellent service.
"It is essential for service providers to have the right professional attitude to gain clients' trust," says Ms Choi. "With so many similar products available in a highly competitive market, success depends on employees who are willing to walk the extra mile."
The company rewards outstanding performance by highlighting any praise received from customers with regard to individual employees at regular staff meetings.
Recently, for example, a relationship manager was acknowledged for going to great lengths to assist a client on a stopover at the Hong Kong airport. The client, on his way from Taiwan to the mainland, needed to sign an important document allowing an urgent fund transfer and ordinarily would have had to travel to a Citibank centre in the city to achieve this. However, the relationship manager went out of her way to help him by personally taking the document to the customer at the airport, saving him the trouble of travelling into town.
"The relationship manager went beyond the call of duty, but she acted according to the bank's 'client first' philosophy," Ms Choi commends. "Our aim is to always make our customers' interests our first priority."
Top accolade
Relationship managers at Citibank are encouraged to participate in the HKIB Outstanding Financial Management Planner Awards, a competition Ms Choi describes as a meaningful event that further recognises the wealth management field and its people.
Last year, Heather Wong, Citigold relationship manager, won the Grand Award in the category for financial planners with less than three years' experience. For her, the competition offered an opportunity to show her passion for her chosen career.
"There is no set formula in financial planning," says Ms Wong. "Our priority is to manage customers' assets and help them realise their goals at different stages in their lives."
She says she was drawn by the hypothetical case study component in the final round of the competition, where she presented her proposal to the panel judges within a restricted time frame with limited resources.
"The competition required us to explain to 'customers' why and how we shaped their portfolios, just as we would do in real life," she explains. "It was important to use our presentation techniques to illustrate our plan step by step, and particularly vital to capture the judges' attention right from the start and provide a good summary at the end."

Great video. I love flying my cessna. Be careful if you do any loops with this plane. The wing struts / supports or the hook thing that is connect to body and wing. One of mine came off going into the loop and nearly folded my wing. I recommend using some stronger glue than the one supplied . Upload more vid soon
2.75" dubro super light. (any bigger arnt really scale)
Imovie I think its called. my friend ran the software.
I havnt done any hard positve g's yet, but I reinforced the strut attachements with
CF rods. will post pics later.
Mods etc
Highly recommend removing nosewheel control arm and using thin CA to glue the metal inner piece to the plastic arm. This will form stong composite piece. It is way too weak otherwise. Mine broke and I had to glue it together that way. Took sanding etc that would not have been needed had I glued it before hand.
I think that motor mount I lightened really helped save the firewall. I had put the cut out metal peices in nose, 2200 batt all the way forward, but still maybe 5 mms tailheavy of recommended. Tried to abort slow flaps takeoff and come around to land to answer phone. Dont try that the least bit tailheavy lol. Left wingtip hit grass first (no damage). You can see where spinner plate pushed into cowl. Only damage was motor mount, cowl, and prop adapter. Mount was easy to straigten. Had to order a couple of prop adapters.

By the way I like your flying field, except the bumpiness - Baldwin Park is a great area. I used to take my dog to the dogpark off of Lakemont, and visited the FedEx very frequently for a job I used to have.
Yeah I also have a new plain cowl I ordered along with the prop adapters. I thought I might have one with speakers, one without. I havnt odered the Benedini equipment yet but I really want to. I havnt tried sanding I think EPO is not going to sand too well but it might help idk. I dont want to make it dirty cuz I dont really want to bother with paint at this time. I think some have tried filling and sanding (+paint). I have some of that Hobbylite filler I used on my eflite beaver nose behind firewall.(crashed it pretty much same way lol) It works great on balsa but Idk if it will stick to EPO. I think it would flake off badly as foam flexed. Heard of people using CA dont want to do that mess for this. I know there's a website that sells a filler for foam but there's a minimum order etc. I thought of even trying a covering iron to see if the right temp and pressure would flatten them. Prob wont work but might try. I tired a couple of irons but settled on the Coverite 21st century. The temp control works well for me dont like any other. But I dont do much covering stuff. Getting more into EPO. But the bumps dont really bug me too much so Im not jumping on it at the moment. Im not so much a close up scale freak for now more of a funscale from 10ft away kinda thing. Think I will whiten the servo rods etc under wings though. This plane looks pretty convincing, want to give it sound. I wonder if any real planes ever have the wing stripes Im thinking of removing them they dont look like they would be on fullscale. Baldwin down by the lake is great open area. Its rectangle but the wind is often mostly on axis.
Slower landing are the most fun IMO but more danger of stall and less control flow. Easiest landings are with a little power guiding it down without flaps instead of letting it drop down like no power landing. I think flaps can increase danger of stall in a few ways. Stall speed is slower, but to level off or slow decent then requires greater elevator throw due to lower speed (which also induces greater drag) and requires greater AOA on wings to get same amount of lift vs higher speed so you can then just instantly jump below flap stall speed more easily. But at slightly higher speed with no flaps you dont have that going on as much. So you can actually land smoother and control rate of dencent better at higher speed without flaps. It just takes more distance. All that is part of why I think it best to not use flaps if there's much crosswind as you need better aileron control too then beside the above issues. I think CG is the biggest factor for smooth+slow landings. Good cg and it will 'mush'. Too far back and it will 'wag' and stall, drop a tip and even go in. People sometimes call that tip stall, but it isnt. The whole wing is at stall speed/AOA and its almost just chance which one drops. With the cg back a little I could put flaps on full, cut thottle, level no trim elev and it would literally land itself hands free with a long slow glide, but a fairly high rate of decent. I thought that was 'neat' but it's not really what you want. It's just bad. With power it should climb with flaps of course, but with no power it should not maintain a higher than level attitude at least. I may try a tiny amount of down elev mix with flaps, but its only under higher throttle that I actually have to hold any down elev. There's risk in using that mix because with power it will make a tailheavy plane not seem as much so but when you drop power it turns into a kite lol. After all this I feel I have a much better understanding of what good and bad CG is and what each feels and looks like, and what it means in terms of handling, safety, etc. I'm glad becuase it was more conceptual to me before and I didnt have a full, practical grasp of it. It makes sense when you really get it. Messing around with Phoenix sim and shifting the CG there also helped me understand. It does a good job of showing it. You can move it to extremes you would never do and it more dramatically illustrates what's happening. Put it way back and lots of funky stuff happens -like it will do spins that it would never do. Lot's of talk about CG. But its something you really need to know intimately. Many planes are quite sensitive to it. 3D planes not as much because they can just power out of trouble. I learned on 3D so I've had CG and slow flight issues on scale planes.

yeah I dont care about flap balooning. I use rudder but if crosswind catches wing its hard to recover. just depends on how much wind we are talking I guess. In the video there was plenty of wind (but not cross), and it was a bit tailheavy, and landing with flaps and even dead stick. It's a really forgiving plane. But it does have its limits of course. If you try to maneuver too steeply when below maneuvering speed, it will fall, especially when tailheavy. Thats really all Im talking about here. I think moviong ailerons and rudder together can really kill it. Any bank turns the rudder into elevator of couse. IIf you want to use both you might need the rudder and ailerons moving in opposition. (no shortage of drag there). "Coordinated' at very slow they make that quick 180 death spiral. Kinda a new distinction for me: the difference between stall speed and maneuvering speed. Read about somewhere in a fullscale aviation article. Makes sense. If you fly slow in a staight line with surfaces mostly undeflected you can continue right down to just above stall threshold and hold it there until landing. But if when at that speed and attitude you make a dramatic input, (like a reaction to a gust) the resulting increased drag and lift imbalance can instantly shift the plane across the threshold it was so close to, into a stalled state. As we know it happens seemingly without warning and very quickly. If we were in a fullscale plane the warning would be sqawling of course. It's barely technically possible, nor would it help smaller modeling since things happen so much faster, but its fun to think of having a telemetric stall warning buzzer on your transmitter.

I've still much to learn. But I know this. If I had to land across the wind I was landing into in the video, I wouldn't use flap, and I would come in faster. I would want to FLY it level with ground, touchdown and let it slow down, almost like a reverse takeoff. Not a typical landing. Others might be better/braver, but I've just conservatively developed that instinct. You might find others with a similar opinion that can articulate it better than me. I've noticed wing rock when tuning (at slow speeds) off of wind axis. With these light models there is also danger of tuning downwind of a brisk wind and misjudging airspeed due to increased groundspeed and flying too slow. Then when you turn again, kerplunk. I dont know of a good way to judge that except you will be holding more elevator to maintain alt. And you just have to be aware of hazard. my attitude: Use more throttle when its windy. Some would say also/or fly higher but I just like lower altitudes for models i think its more fun to see them better and when they are closer. If you really understand all the dynamics and maintain awareness of wind direction etc and can keep all of that stuff going in your head you are quicker than me. (Im not all that quick).

I like your videos, thanks. Great job with the gear and the brakes. Probably dont need the brakes much on grass, but still a great job.
I had ordered some flap servos and was going to get my 182 back in action. They didnt include the right size horn for one of the servos though. It was too small and my local hobby store didnt have anything that would fit. They tried to tell me it was a "one-off" size made by FMS and only FMS would have the size. ??? I dont know, if someone knows the right size let me know. The flap servo has a larger diameter then the micro aileron ones.
So I went without flaps this weekend, and also without my durbo wheels that I ordered. I went with the 3'' ones, I know large, but I wanted them for the grass. I went to a new field that is about 300x400 yards, much larger and more open then my closer park. Did about 6 flights perfect there.
On my last crash from a few weeks ago the nose gear arm control broke. Glueing it has been a pain. Recomendations for stronger one?
Went to park after and had some good flights as well. Still learning. I too came into the slow stall speed issue. I also think my cg is off and as well tail heavy. I was preparing for the final landing before battery was done and in a 180 at low altitude plane stalled and nozed to the ground. So another prop busted. The cowl smashed just a bit not bad. I was suprised the firewall didnt brake out this time. Probably from the last 2 repairs, it held. So that saves a few hours of repair
The lesson I learned for sure is to keep speed up in the turns. Just dont have time or altitude to correct.
Yeah brakes aren't needed ever on these I just think its fun.
I think by servo horns you mean what I call the arms. I think of horns as what goes on the control surface and moves it. Anyway my aileron and flap servos are the same. Finding arms with splines that match can be a pain. Idk what you mean by they didnt include the right size horn. They should have included something? Are you saying what they included didnt fit on the servo in the same package?
For CG I would really carefully follow the manual. And then move it forward 2-5 mm. for added stability. I like to take ball-headed staight pins and cut them short and stick them in the bottom of the wing at the recommended point. (with a little glue) And sometimes put some differenct colored ones a few mills fore and aft. When you hold the plane with your finger tip under the pin heads, you can get a good feel of CG.
What you described is what I've been experiencing. CG a little forward helps that. Yeah add a little power into turns they do cause added drag and a drop of altitude. As wing bank they make less lift so we pull elevator and increase AOA so now more drag, higher AOA is closer to stall angle. People talk about 'coordinatied' turns meaning using the rudder with the ailerons. I'm starting to think of that as meaning adding a little power also. No reason to if you are flying at even medium speeds in general of course. But many of us like to fly these as slow as possible seems to enhance the scale effect. Unfortunately scale speed is not 'linear' becuase the air is still the same density. If we could increase the air density as much as our planes are scaled down we could use perfectly scale props, rpm, and flying speed. Need a REALLY big decompressoin chamber lol. But yeah, contrary to instinct, slower is not safer.

helpful reference, thanks. the part about the tail stalling first was what I wasn't sure of. Although.. Im not 100% on why that happens and if it happens on all planes. For example, the Zenith Air STOL planes have an inverted airfoil elevator that affects that. The implications of tail stall I already understood. Really rounds out my knowledge!
It's compicated because when you pull up elevator it also changes the stall angle of the stab/elevator wing. -differently than say a 'flying stab' where the whole thing moves. the flying stab I would think would stall later than stab/elev because you are then decrease the AOA of the whole thing. The flight implications of a flying stab vs stab/elev on conventional light planes would be interesting. Apparently there's a reaons they generally aren't used. Idk what it is though lol.

Few people missed the headlines when the latest employment
figures were unveiled earlier this month by the U.S. Bureau of
Labor Statistics. The addition of only 32,000 new jobs, or 200,000
fewer than expected, alarmed everyone. Stocks swooned, reporters
wrote economic obituaries and President Bush's political opponents
But hardly anyone noticed a new study, published the same day by the same federal agency, that shows payroll job losses have been consistently overestimated since the 2001 recession. How can this be? The problem lies in the way we measure jobs.
The BLS has two ways to do that. One is the payroll survey, which charts the number of jobs that employers report to the government. It shows we've lost 1.24 million jobs since March 2001 (including the 32,000 in July). The second is the household survey, in which the Census Bureau queries Americans directly about their job status. It shows we've added 1.81 million jobs since March 2001, including 629,000 last month. Why the discrepancy?
Part of the reason is that the payroll survey overlooks some segments of workers that have been growing in today's economy - such as the self-employed and consultants. None of these show up on payrolls. The economy is structurally different than it was five or 10 years ago, and it may be that the payroll-jobs numbers are weak simply because the economy now relies less on payrolls for engaging the labor force.
But the new BLS study now acknowledges another reason: job-changing.
When workers change jobs, they wind up being counted twice in the payroll survey - as employees for their former and new employers. When turnover rates are high, as they were in the late 1990s, it looks as if there are many more jobs than there actually are. But when turnover declines, as it has since 9/11, the jobs figure is closer to reality. Thus, some jobs are cited as "lost" when, in fact, employees have merely stayed at the same jobs.
And there's a third reason to suspect that the payroll survey isn't serving us well: Other economic indicators point to recovery. Real wages are rising. Unemployment is low and declining. (Indeed, the same day the 32,000 figure came out, the unemployment rate was reported to have dropped from 5.6% to 5.5%.) Jobless claims have been declining for the last year and are holding at about 340,000 a week. Levels below 400,000 are widely perceived to reflect a healthy, growing workforce.
There's more. The last few months also have brought much-needed relief to long-term unemployed workers. The number in this group declined by more than 300,000 workers since March. And the length of unemployment dropped sharply in July to 8.9 weeks from 10.8 weeks in June.
Critics note that the household survey's employment level varies widely from one month to the next. However, variability isn't caused, as is so often charged, by the small sample size. It's caused by the fresh faces in the sample - 15,000 new respondents per month. Over the long term, the instability disappears, and trend lines are clear. Not only is employment growing by millions, but the labor force is too.
Now for the question of scale: How much does job-changing distort payrolls? The BLS says it overstated payroll job losses by a quarter of a million, but it uses cautious assumptions. And let's not forget the fact that payrolls overlook many workers, as mentioned above. As a result, the study from BLS offers the lowest possible estimate of the overstated job losses. Its acknowledgment is just the tip of the iceberg.
But does it really matter how big the hole is in the side of the Titanic? The point is, the payroll survey is now officially suspect. At the very least, it shouldn't be viewed as superior to the other sources of economic data. Analysts have little choice but to reevaluate all their economic assumptions.
For now, though, the household survey should be seen as the standard for long-term analysis, and payrolls should be kept in perspective. If the economy is going to take center stage in the political debate, we need to ensure we're arguing from accurate figures. Thanks to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, we're getting closer to doing just that.

Daesh urges followers to purchase firearms at US gun shows
The Daesh terrorist group (ISIL) has urged its sympathizers to purchase and stockpile weapons in the United States, by taking advantage of the country's lax gun laws.
"With approximately 5,000 gun shows taking place annually within the United States, the acquisition of firearms becomes a very easy matter," the group's propaganda magazine Rumiyah said in an article on Friday.
"In most US states, anything from a single-shot shotgun all the way up to a semi-automatic AR-15 rifle can be purchased at showrooms or through online sales — by way of private dealers — with no background checks, and without requiring either an ID or a gun license," it said.
"If one does not possess any direct or informal contact with any gun dealers, he should abstain from randomly asking people whom they consider 'trustworthy' for help in acquiring them," it added.
The article also called on adherents of the Takfiri group to take and kill hostages in enclosed locations and cites, referring to the 2016 massacre in an Orlando nightclub in which 49 people were killed.
The US federal rules inhibit the sale of firearms by licensed dealers by requiring background check on buyers. However, private sellers, often attending conventions, are not subject to that law and can sell to other individuals within their state without proper documentations.
In 2011, an al-Qaeda spokesman made a video talking about the accessibility of guns in the United States.
"In the West, you've got a lot at your disposal," Adam Gadahn said. "You can go down to a gun show at the local convention center and come away with a fully automatic assault rifle, without a background check, and most likely without having to show an identification card. So what are you waiting for?"
US citizens are almost becoming habituated to gun violence with an average 87 deaths and 183 injuries each day, often attributed to the country's lax gun laws and the presence of strong gun lobbies, according to the University of Chicago Crime Lab and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

- 'US gun violence backlash from wars, arms sales'
- Trump endorsed by US gun lobby
The Republican-controlled Congress had repeatedly snubbed efforts of the administration of former President Barack Obama to tighten gun laws.
An estimated 283 million guns are owned by US citizens. 2012 saw the highest number of shooting victims in American history, with the worst tragedy in that year being the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

Young activists fired up in fight against coal
JOHNSONVILLE — Outside the high school here Tuesday night, as people gathered for a public hearing, three young women wrestled with a big black inflatable coal plant that looked similar to a jump castle — except for the words "CLEAN UP DIRTY COAL PLANTS NOW" on the side.
One woman trying in vain to get the prop's smoke stacks raised was Katheryn Hilton, 20, of Aiken, who two months ago spent 11 hours in jail after being arrested at a demonstration at a coal plant in Virginia. Hilton said coal is a dirty technology that will spew mercury into the air and waterways and contribute to global warming.
Next to her, Sara Tansey, 20, looked for leaks. She took a year off from the University of South Carolina to fight the coal industry. "There are lots of young people who got engaged on the climate and energy issue during the election," she said. "I think young people are really awakening to injustice of the whole life cycle of coal."
Across the country, anti-coal activists, many of them students in their 20s, are attending hearings and engaging in demonstrations and acts of civil disobedience reminiscent of the protests their parents might have seen in the 1970s against nuclear plants.

Following last year's masterful drop inspired by the human body, House of Cards' latest lookbook has arrived.
And we have the first look.
Titled Animal, the collection explores our primal instincts as humans, and how these are reconciled with the constraints of social constructs.
An excerpt from the label encapsulates it nicely:
"As humans we have evolved and advanced into hyper-developed and highly intelligent beings, surpassing our mammal counterparts. We are born into the constructs of a societal discourse, driven by ambition, emotion, conflict and mortality while we still possess basic instincts.
ANIMAL explores humans as beings who are struggling to find a balance between being a product of the human condition while also existing as a member of a species with primal urges."
An interesting subject matter, sure. But how this has translated into clothing is particularly energising.
Designer Ashiya Omundsen has taken silhouettes traditionally reserved for business wear, and given these a primal spin.
Snap-off panelling and zip details feature heavily, for perhaps obvious reasons. As Ashiya explains:
"These ideas allow the wearer act on primal urges instantaneously and in a playful way, encouraging a sense of shamelessness toward our basic instincts."
Unsurprisingly, animal prints and motifs are woven throughout, as is faux fur detailing.
A more nuanced approach can be seen through relaxed pieces balancing structured shapes, while exaggerated lines add a more playful element to traditionally conservative silhouettes.

In November 2009, we initiated a multistate investigation of Salmonella Montevideo infections with pulsed-field gel electrophoresis pattern JIXX01.0011. We identified 272 cases in 44 states with illness onset dates ranging from 1 July 2009 to 14 April 2010. To help generate hypotheses, warehouse store membership card information was collected to identify products consumed by cases. These records identified 19 ill persons who purchased company A salami products before onset of illness. A case-control study was conducted. Ready-to-eat salami consumption was significantly associated with illness (matched odds ratio 8·5, 95% confidence interval 2·1–75·9). The outbreak strain was isolated from company A salami products from an environmental sample from one manufacturing plant, and sealed containers of black and red pepper at the facility. This outbreak illustrates the importance of using membership card information to assist in identifying suspect vehicles, the potential for spices to contaminate ready-to-eat products, and preventing raw ingredient contamination of these products.
