Skip to comments.Accused drug dealers get off - Judge agrees racial profiling was at play
Posted on 05/31/2006 7:49:33 AM PDT by LurkedLongEnough
DANBURY In a decision Superior Court trial referee Robert Callahan "agonized long and hard over," he ruled in favor of two accused drug dealers who claimed they were stopped outside the Sheraton in Danbury in 2004 only because they were black.
In a written decision dated May 17 and received Friday by defense lawyers, Callahan said he came to his decision, which essentially guts the state's case against the men, "reluctantly" and after "soul-searching."
Lawyer James Diamond of Danbury said his client Demetere Taft, 30, of Beaver Street, is "obviously very pleased that the judge has agreed with the arguments he made."
"The judge has thrown out all the evidence against my client," Diamond said. "There's nothing left to proceed on, unless this Constitutional decision gets overturned."
"There's no basis for the police officers to search my client. There was no reason to believe he was violating the law," Diamond said.
Joseph Mirsky, the Bridgeport defense lawyer for the other client, Jamar Crawford, 29, of Waterbury, agreed there was no reason to stop the men.
"It was a very, very, very weak case for the state," Mirsky said. "So I think this decision was great. It took months and he gave it a great deal of thought."
The arrests occurred Oct. 5, 2004, when Danbury detectives went to the Sheraton on Old Ridgebury Road to look for anyone who might have had information about a fatal shooting in Waterbury that happened about 15 hours earlier.
The men were taken into custody as they left the hotel separately shortly after 3 p.m.
Crawford had more than 30 grams of crack cocaine and heroin in his luggage, according to police. He also was carrying about $1,000 in cash, police said.
Taft had 3.5 ounces of powder cocaine, more than two ounces of crack cocaine, and two handguns, according to police.
The men face multiple charges, including possession of narcotics, possession of crack cocaine and possession with intent to sell.
Diamond, who said he has never before raised the issue of race in his decade-long career as a Danbury defense lawyer, said he is not surprised by the decision.
Prosecutor David Shannon was out of the office Tuesday and could not be reached for comment. He could appeal the decision. He also could decide to drop the charges against the defendants.
Shannon's boss, Danbury State's Attorney Walter Flanagan, declined to comment.
"I'm in no position to say anything," Flanagan said.
The two detectives involved in the arrest, Joseph Norkus and James Lalli, could not be reached.
In December a Danbury police spokesman, Capt. Dan Mulvey, said he knows the two detectives who caught the two men and he doubts the arrest was based on race.
The defense lawyers aren't convinced.
"If my client was a white male walking out of the Sheraton hotel with a suitcase in his hands, he never would have been stopped and searched," Diamond said.
Diamond said he had not yet heard whether Shannon plans to appeal the decision from Callahan, who was the state's Supreme Court chief justice before becoming a trial referee after retiring in 1999.
That is what I meant, and I do defer to your expertise in the matter as a retired MP.
is post number 11 and 19 intentional hyperbolic sarcasm? Or are you really serious about what you just typedin those 2 posts?
Certainly not. They are guilty as sin IMHO.
Our law may have worked in the past but today it only works to see the guilty go free and we should adjust it so that stops happening.
The 4th Amendment didn't address how to handle illegally obtained evidence - the supreme court did. Until that time, illegally obtained evidence was admissible. It still is under some circumstances.
Maybe it's time to go back to the common law. I think you're right - if an officer violates a person's rights he should be held accountable, but evidence of crime obtained in the process should not be summarily disposed of.
I agree it was SCOTUS that made this tarbaby. I feel Congress should excercise its rightful authority and fix the problem. After all it is their job to form the law.
I think the fourth didn't handle the what to do with it part because I think the founders were honorable men that believed in truth. I think they meant it to be understood that courtroom evidence was supposed to be about presenting truth so that proper justice may be administered.
I would offer that SCOTUS was trying to protect our 4th when they made this ruling and indeed they rule in ways that do. I would just like to see this nation get back to basics and common sense. When something was intended for good but begets bad, it is time to act not time to rest on our laurels. Congress could and should deal with this so it can be done with.
You understand, of course, you're advocating a system where the presumption is of guilt, not innocence, and that's wholly incompatible with the American system of jurisprudence . . .
. . . except for those Founding Fathers who made their fortunes by smuggling . . .
Yup. Too bad there are not more freedom-loving people around.
"You likely have no legitimate business there"
WTF?What if I was there to tutor a child I volunteered to work with with?What if I had friends in that neighborhood?What if I am a potential investor and am checking out some property?What if I teach at a school in the ghetto?
Man,if you were in charge I would be in jail constantly for not having my"ghetto pass"
. . . except for those Founding Fathers who made their fortunes by smuggling . . .
...or dressed up as Injuns and dumped someone else's tea in the harbor...
Of courze! You vould haff need of ze papers to move in ze safe und ordered society dat dese volk vant.
I missed the part of the story where the black men in question were characterized as such.
Gee, I just can't find the part in the 4th amendment whereby we give up our rights to it's protection if we make dumb fashion choices.
I agree ... but as long as exclusion of evidence is the prescribed way to handle illegal searches, they must all be done that way. I've heard no probable cause cited for this search.

Is traveling in Europe by car interesting in winter??
Report Abuse
Can't answer with regard to France, but in Italy in can be "interesting" in ways that are not pleasant, and you really must constantly watch the weather forecasts wherever you go.
In the ski resort areas, roads are cleared of snow fairly rapidly, but you still need to keep on eye on the weather so you don't get caught in a blizzard.
In northern Italy there are often severe fog hazards in winter, and around the scenic areas, where the roads are very twisty, there can be snow and ice, and the roads are not cleared quickly. You are required to be carrying snow chains in your car and you need to be very careful driving off the main highways.
In the areas that don't get snow there can be torrential rain on some days, and this includes all of southern Italy and its islands. So again, you really need to be paying attention to weather forecasts.
There is a great deal of Italy that can be seen by train, and you can spontaneously rent a car if the weather is dry and sunny to enjoy some scenic driving. But it can be a mistake to plan a winter road trip in Italy where you must keep moving along because you pre-booked hotels. That is a bad plan.

How can you "like to travel by car in Europe" when you've never been there?????

He probably means "would like" - likely English is not his first language.
In January I would head as far south as possible, take warm and waterproof clothes, and use the trains. Consider Nice.
Report Abuse
English obviously isn't their first language. They mean, I'm pretty sure, they would like to travel by car.
Report Abuse
it depends where you drive, just like other places. There are some scenic roads where it would be interesting (not to mention some that might be more interesting than you want, such as around gorges or mountains). You can't do those in winter, so much. But others are just straight, big super highways that aren't interesting at all.
So it's hard to say without knowing your route if it would be interesting or boring.
Report Abuse
Mahmoud - there are some wonderful roads in Europe, with terrific views, but in order to get those views very often you have to be up high which in winter may mean snow or fog or both. Not a good idea, particularly if you are not used to driving on them.
You can also get great views from trains, [so long as the weather hasn't stopped them running, though that rarely happens] or from buses; either public buses or tours.
Give us an idea of where you're going, and we might be able to give you a few suggestions.
Report Abuse
Not sure where you are from but the parts of europe you are talking about have temperate climates with a real winter until you go very far south. this means trees with no leaves, grass is often brown and no flowers. The countryside will not look anythng like it does in spring summer and early fall - and most of the "pretty" will not exist. There can still be dramatic scenery - mountains, glaciers, lakes, etc - but the weather will be cold, daylight hours short and I would not try to drive unless you have experience driving in ice/snow - which is a whole different skill set than driving on dry pavements.
And this is from someone who has done more than 20 road trips in europe - but not in midwinter.

Please ignore nytraveler's descriptions of Italy in winter. They bear no relationship to reality. She has been asked many times to stop doing this. You can find many previous threads where many people have had to warn others to please ignore nytraveler's false descriptions.
As she herself points out, she has never traveled through Italy in mid-winter. She refuses to believe that the majority of areas are green, many have flowers and trees have leaves, no matter how many times she is told just that. Never mind her problems.

depends on where you go, sandralist. for both france and italy: if you're in northern italy, there will be a real winter and no flowers. if it's the south of france and neighbouring italy, things are different of course.
in late january i always visit the ardennes, in Belgium, to visit an Indian music festival near Durbuy. Beautiful scenery, but a week in advance we're devout watchers of the weather situation, because we know that if there's serious snow (and there will be), we may be stuck in Durbuy, as it's not that easy to get out of there with snow. Two years ago a bus with British visitors to the festival was stuck in a ditch and had to be towed out.
So it would seem it depends where the driving is done.
Report Abuse
Sandaralist seems to believe that all of Italy has beuatiful weather in the winter. This is not so.
The further south you go the warmer the weather and the greater the chance of an attractive countryside. But my best friend went to Venice for a week around the New Year and had 6 days of rain and one of snow. Snow can be expected anyplace in the mountains - and can happpen as far south as Rome and in most parts of france - although not likely right around the Med.
Report Abuse
Thanks to all for your feedback.
We had plan to visit Paris (forth time for me and first time with my wife), Monaco, Milan, Venice (first time for both of us) with rental car (Thanks to GPS which can help for first time and even later )
Based on your comments, North of Italy will not be same as South (like Naples)and also the risk of snow/fog is high in North area. So I leave trip with car option to next time and will mix train and flight options based on our schedule.
You guessed right, English is my second language after my native one which is Persian.
Please share your other suggestions if you have regarding these cities. Thanks

Hi Mahmoud, roads in France are generally very well maintained, and kept free of ice and snow as much as possible. But if you get a serious winter storm, as happened the end of December, you'll be stuck.
Renting a car in France and returning it in Italy will be very expensive, as there will be a charge for dropping it off in another country. Besides, you do not want a car in any of these places. It will be expensive to park, in Milan there are restrictions on driving, and in Venice needless to say a car is useless.
Fly into Paris, train to Monaco (or better: Nice, it is much more interesting than Monaco, especially in winter), train to Milan, train to Venice and back home from there.
Report Abuse
There is risk of snow and/or fog in any place, not just the north area. To say that snow around the Med area is unlikely is just not true in my experience. Saying that the further south you go the better weather you have, is not always true either. The umbrella pines are green all year round and are common in Med areas.
Report Abuse
I agree. for that itinerary, a car will just be an expensive nuisance. The train will be much nicer and probably cheaper if you book in advance.
Report Abuse
Frankly it has frozen more in southern France than in northern France so far this winter. It even snowed in Tunisia, but we have not yet seen a snowflake in Paris.
If the weather turns bad, it is wise to use the motorways, which obviously have the highest priority for snow or ice removal.
Report Abuse
Pine trees are green all year everywhere. It;s only deciduous trees (often most or many of the trees) that lose leaves every fall. When I say no leaves obviously I am not talking about evergreens. But still - much of the "pretty" is missing.

We have travelled by car the week of New Years the last two years - Tuscany last year and Burgundy this year.
Our pics are here so you can see and decide for yourself whether they are beautiful
Tuscany https://www.flickr.com/photos/pug_girl/sets/72157639164500734/
Burgundy https://www.flickr.com/photos/pug_girl/sets/72157647659760923/
We hit a warmish year in Tuscany and a coldish year in Burgundy...in both countries the roads were well maintained and clear - we only did day trips about an hour away from our bases each day.
We found the countryside beautiful in a winter sort of way. We enjoyed the food and wine in both places.
We left lots of time to get the cars returned and to catch flights and trains just in case, and of course watched the weather just in case we had to change plans at the last minute. We would not do a long road trip in winter....just use the car for short day trips from a mid-sized town where restaurants will likely be open.
We are returning with my family to Tuscany next year.
Note that many restaurants, wineries and activities are closed in the winter for periods.
I hope this helps!

can I ask, Jamikins, why you chose to travel by car rather than fly/train?
both Tuscany and Burgundy would be pretty easy from London by public transport, I think.

Fire in Uttar Pradesh hotel, no casualtySeptember 29th, 2011 - 11:32 pm ICT by IANS
Meerut, Sep 29 (IANS) Goods worth several lakhs were gutted in a fire that broke out in a hotel in Uttar Pradesh's Meerut city Thursday, triggering panic in a busy commercial area. No casualty was reported in the incident.
The fire, suspected to have erupted following an electric short-circuit in a room of the Green Hotel in Sadar area, engulfed the ground floor of the hotel, gutting furniture, electrical equipment and other items.
"Timely intervention by the fire fighters controlled the blaze from spreading to other commercial establishments, which otherwise could have resulted in major tragedy," police Inspector Ram Teerath told reporters in Meerut, some 450 km from Lucknow.
"At the time of the incident, several customers were present inside the hotel that was evacuated in a joint exercise conducted with the firefighters. The situation is now under control," he added.

No restriction in use of detection devices to beat AES
KUALA LUMPUR: There is no restriction in the use of detection devices by motorists to beat the Automated Enforcement System (AES), said Deputy Transport Minister Datuk Abdul Rahim Bakri.
"We cannot stop anyone from using gadgets to beat the AES.
"That is why the system is transparent and there is no restriction on the use of detection devices," he said when answering a question raised by Tan Sri Shahrir Abdul Samad (BN-Johor Bahru) when winding up the budget speech for his ministry Wednesday.
He noted the transparency of the AES system was evident as the locations of the camera were made known to the public.
"The system (AES) is transparent as the locations of the cameras are known and available on the website for those interested to know.
"There are even warning signs put up two-to-three kilometers before the cameras locations," he said, adding that the mobile phones GPS systems would be able to determine the location of the cameras.

After which Harry's nightmares are no longer of battle and death, but Lucius's white arse.
It took a few moments for Hermione's statement to sink through the layers of champagne, fine food, and post-coital euphoria surrounding Harry's brain. There was no way the potion should have worn off yet. Snape had told him it would last at least four hours, and it hadn't been two. But he recognized the signs—fever-bright eyes, flushed cheeks, accelerated breathing, and Lucius Malfoy's hand up her skirt.
He stood and pulled Hermione to her feet. "I need to get you out of here before you do something you'll regret."
Lucius stood with her, his arm sliding around her waist. "I'm not the only one that needs to go," she said, visibly shivering as Lucius' fingers splayed over her side, brushing the underside of her breast.
"Shit. Malfoy," Harry hissed at the younger Malfoy male who was seated on the other side of his father. "Help me get your father and Hermione out of here."
"Why?" Draco asked before he too recognized the potential danger in this situation. He echoed Harry's expletive.
The blond linked his arm with his father and pulled, while Harry tugged his bride by her arm. Together they were able to get them up the stairs and out of the ballroom. However, even with the two of them, they didn't have the strength necessary to pull the couple away from each other. It took all they had to wrangle the pair into the ladies' loo, which was the closest door.
On the way, they happened across Ron, and Harry asked him to fetch Snape. If there was anyone who could help Hermione, it was the Potions Master.
It only got worse when they got to the private room. Heedless of their audience, Lucius immediately turned to Hermione and caught her lips in a kiss that apparently involved sucking her entire face into his mouth. One hand covered her breast, kneading the lush orb that was trying to spill out of her dress in response, while the other grabbed a handful of fabric in the back and was drawing her skirt up.
To Harry's dismay, Hermione only encouraged him, clutching Lucius closer as she returned his kiss.
The older blond guided her backward as he kissed her until they reached the counter. He lifted her so she perched on the edge, his lips never leaving hers. With her skirt bunched up around her waist, he stepped between her legs while she wrapped one leg up around his hip to bring him closer.
Her hands sifted through the long strands of blond hair as Malfoy ground against her and dipped a hand beneath the neckline of her dress. Between kisses, he said, "I haven't been able to think of anything but your breasts for the past two hours, and I've been aroused since yesterday, you tease. Even with the Calming Draught."
"That is not something I ever wanted to know," Draco remarked, his eyes wide with horrified curiosity.
Harry nodded in agreement, feeling a bit dazed by the whole thing. He wanted to look away, really, but it was like watching a traffic accident or animals mating in the wild. It was gruesome, and arousing, and impossible not to stare. "Hermione is going to have to obliviate my memory of this, or I might not eat again."
"You and me both," the blond said, and Harry couldn't help but feel they'd shared a moment of mutual commiseration that mended years of House rivalries and petty schoolyard disputes.
Ron was returning from the loo when Draco and Harry passed, practically dragging Mr. Malfoy and Hermione behind them.
"Get Snape," Harry said—no ordered—as he shoved open the door to the witch's toilets. Ron was mighty tempted to ignore the demand and go back to his dinner. But there was something wrong. Lucius Malfoy, cool and aloof, had been pawing at Hermione. Like he'd suddenly taken a love potion or something.
Ron returned to the ballroom, glanced longingly at the half-eaten filet of beef and flakey pastry sitting at his place, and walked across to Snape's table.
Harry really had some nerve telling him what to do and just expecting him to comply. Especially after what his so-called best friend did.
At first, Ron hadn't thought anything of the fact that Harry escorted Hermione into the ballroom after the rest of the guests and other husbands had arrived. In fact, he probably wouldn't have realized the real reason for their late arrival if it hadn't been for Seamus.
He'd been standing with the other Gryffindors when the pair was announced and Lucius swept Hermione off to meet the stuffy bunch of wizards over in his corner of the room. Harry made his way to them, smiling widely as he greeted his schoolmates.
Seamus took one look at the beaming wizard and said, "Blimey, Harry. Looks like you got laid already."
When Harry turned Gryffindor red Ron knew Seamus had the right of it. He wanted to walk away, but for some reason it was like his feet had been hit with a sticking charm.
"Merlin, Harry," Dean said in a low voice, "couldn't you wait till after the reception?"
"Not really." Harry glanced at Ron before looking back at Dean, tugging at the high collar of his dress robes. "You'll see. The binding magic is kind of intense."
"So how was it, mate?" Seamus asked, nudging Ron in the ribs before adding, "I always thought she was a fine thing. I'll bet she was wild in the sack—the brainy ones usually are."
"No way I'm telling you lot. Have you met my wife? I don't want to end up a newt," Harry said with a laugh and a dramatic shudder.
Harry wouldn't say any more on the subject despite Dean's questions and Seamus' teasing, but those green eyes followed Hermione's progress around the room and nothing could wipe the stupid grin from his face.
For Hermione's sake, Ron was doing his best to be supportive and put on a brave front for the public and the press, but it was hard. Right now it was especially hard to watch his best friends act smitten while his own heart was breaking.
In the years he'd known her, Hermione Granger had gone from a bossy, bushy-haired little girl to a beautiful, though still bossy, woman. Somehow in that time, he stopped wanting to fight with the girl and started wanting to snog her. When he realized she fancied him too, he expected they'd end up together.
And for one brief moment, they were.
Their kiss during the final battle was like something from a storybook his mum would read him as a kid. It should have been the start of their happily-ever-after.
But then Fred died, and it didn't seem right for him to be happy when his family was so miserable. Then Ginny got sick, and it didn't seem right to be in love when his sister was dying and his best friend was grieving. And then the rest of the world got sick, or so it seemed, and there wasn't time to think about love and sex and marriage. He'd thought there would be time for that when things were back to normal.
The problem was he'd run out of time, and there was no such thing as normal.
He probably should have been happy to have that one fairytale moment to hold onto while he spent the next years married to his ugly cow of a future wife. But he couldn't help but resent Harry and Neville and even his own dad for getting the one thing in this world that he'd considered his.
Hermione used to be his, but today he'd given her away.
If it wasn't bad enough that he had to give up the woman of his dreams in exchange for a chubby, fifteen-year-old Hufflepuff, now he had to sit and watch how great his life could have been.
It was enough to turn the fancy meal to ash in his mouth and drive him from the ballroom for some air.
How could he sit there and watch these wizards fawning over the witch of his dreams? How could he overlook the way her hand circled his father's wrist every time she wrapped her lips around his fork? How could he not notice Kingsley play with her silky curls between sips of champagne? How could he avoid watching Neville offer her a bite of the baby chicken from their second course, teasing her with it before finally letting her take it? How could he pay no attention to that prat, Cormac, as he brushed a drop of wine from the corner of her mouth and sucked it into his own?
And how could he ignore the sexually-charged looks that passed between her and Harry as she hummed her enjoyment of the meal. They looked happy, and they were completely oblivious to the fact that it was making him miserable.
He knew their friendship would never be the same again.
And yet when Harry Potter said, "Levitate," Ron asked, "How high?"
Ron almost turned around fifteen times as he crossed the ballroom to get Snape, but in the end he did as Harry demanded.
That was just how the world worked. Harry was the hero. He killed the bad guy, got the girl, and lived happily-ever-after.
And the side-kick was kicked aside.
Her eyes opened and through a slit, Hermione saw Draco and Harry transfixed as Lucius teased her.
Behind them, Severus entered.
"What happened, Potter? The Calming Draught should have lasted for another two hours."
"Don't know. Hermione just told me she thought the draught was wearing off, and we got them out of there before they started going at it on the dinner table."
"This is only slightly less disturbing," the younger blond said. "It's like they've been dosed with a lust potion."
Severus approached the pair. Once he got closer, he drew one elegant finger down over her shoulder. Hermione turned to capture the digit with her mouth, whimpering when he pulled it away.
"Not a lust potion," Severus said, backing up. "If it was, she would only be interested in him or the first male to catch her attention."
"They don't make a general potion?"
"Merlin, Potter. Did you learn nothing during the years I was forced to endure you in my class? Lust potions are always specific. There are some potions that generally increase sexual arousal, but they don't have any of the other symptoms."
"What symptoms?" Draco asked.
"Well, neither has stripped naked yet."
"Thank Merlin for that. If I see Malfoy's lily-white arse, I'm definitely getting obliviated," Harry said.
"Do be serious for a moment," the Potions Master responded.
"I'm being deadly serious."
Severus pinched the bridge of his nose. "Did they eat or drink anything odd?"
"I don't think so," Harry answered.
"The wine tasted a bit off," she said, panting and arching her back as Lucius latched onto a dark pink nipple.
"One of you two, stop gawking and bring me the wine goblet. I'm guessing it's a simple neutralizing potion, but I'd rather be sure."
"I'm not leaving her alone with him," Harry said.
"Bloody voyeur," Snape accused. "Are you planning to chaperone all of her conjugal relations?"
"Only the ones when she's being taken advantage of because someone slipped her something."
"Draco," Severus barked, "get me the bloody wine goblet before the elves clear the table."
Lucius appeared to be completely disregarding the other men in the room and now had the top of her dress completely unfastened and peeled down.
She leaned back so her head rested against the mirror.
"I knew you were a naughty witch," the enchanted mirror said, "and with the Master of the house no less."
"Shut up you bint, or you'll end up in the grottiest public loo I can find." She fisted Malfoy's hair and pulled his head back so she could kiss him again.
Draco returned with the half-finished glass of red wine and Severus passed his wand over the surface and then over the pair of them.
"You're not supposed to be using magic," she told the Potions Master between kisses, then she squealed as Malfoy bit her earlobe while slipping his fingers beneath the edge of her knickers.
"Perhaps you should pay attention to what you're doing and leave me—"
His advice was cut off by her moan as Lucius' fingers moved in her. In her ear, he whispered, "That's right, poppet. So tight. I can't wait to be inside you."
Her response was an inarticulate groan as his fingers pumped deeper, and his thumb brushed her sensitive center.
Severus waved his wand over the two of them again. "It is a neutralizing potion, as I predicted. It appears Lucius ingested ten times the dose as Miss Granger. Her system should be clear of the potion in a quarter hour, but Lucius will not be able to take more Calming Draught for at least two hours."
She caught Severus' free hand and brought it to her mouth for a kiss before pressing it to the mound of her breast. His long fingers flexed, pressing into her flesh before he jerked his hand away, ignoring her whimper of protest.
"It is best to let them satisfy the binding magic now. That will calm Lucius, and Miss Granger can take another dose of Calming Draught in about a half-hour." He took a vial of the light blue potion from his robes and set it beside the couple before retreating. "We should give them some privacy."
"I don't like it," Harry said. "She isn't in her right mind."
"She's as much in her right mind now as she was when she went off with you, Potter."
"That's what I'm afraid of," Harry returned.
Lucius grabbed the potion vial in his free hand and then wrapped that arm around her waist, saying, "Hold tight, poppet."
With a twirl and a crack, their location shifted from the ladies' lounge to an elegantly decorated bedroom, done in soothing taupe and cream. There was an enormous four-poster bed, settee, and two wingback chairs in front of a large fireplace.
Without the counter to support her weight, Lucius wasn't strong enough to hold her any longer. Before he lost his grip on her, he dropped to his knees right where they appeared—on a plush area rug in front of the fire. He laid her back, her dress still half on, but bunched around her waist leaving her long, slim legs—and what lay between—exposed to him.
She writhed in anticipation as he drew off her knickers.
For a moment, he stared at her. "Such a pretty pussy for a Mudblood."
Hermione leaned up, aggravated by the delay more than the slur. She wrapped her fist around his long blond hair and pulled his face to hers. "Quit teasing me, you great inbred arse, and fuck me, or I'll find another husband who will."
His lips crashed into hers, and he used his superior weight to press her back into the floor, settling his clothed form on top of her. "Oh, I'll fuck you all right, my little Mudblood. I'll fuck you so hard you'll feel it for a week."
She kissed him hard and then snagged his lip between her teeth, not breaking the skin, but it was enough to get his attention. Around his lip she said, "Stop calling me that. In fact, stop talking altogether, and fuck me." She arched into him and released his lip, scraping her teeth over the tender skin.
Lucius fumbled with the fastening on his trousers while taking her lips in a bruising kiss.
"You asked for it, poppet."
"Give me more," she ordered, panting.
He did as she asked and smirked when she groaned, but the pain quickly bloomed into pleasure.
He stilled as the little witch screamed in ecstasy, holding back his own end. He wanted to savor her for a little longer.
She was truly a thing of beauty, creamy white skin with pink accents in all of his favorite places. So young and tight. So wild and wanton.
She looked up at him with passion darkened eyes, a small satisfied smile playing on her lips.
"Ready for more, poppet?" he asked.
"Hmm," she agreed, quivering as he teased her. "More."
He paused, enjoying her whimper of protest. "Maybe if you ask nicely."
Her eyes narrowed. "Stop fucking around, and fuck me, Lucius."
So stubborn and fiery. She refused to bend, and there was a part of him that liked that about her. Who was he kidding? Denying her meant denying himself, and he wasn't one for self-sacrifice. There would be time to win this battle of wills later. For now he'd concede. "Close enough," he said before increasing his pace.
It felt like an eternity and yet too soon, she arched back, eyes closed, gasping as her second climax rolled over her. The pleasure was indescribable, and he was pulled along with her into bliss.
When his arms were shaking too badly to hold him, he collapsed beside her.
For the longest time, he lay next to his wife, heart racing, and breath shallow.
As his body recovered from the strenuous exercise, his mind regained some clarity. He was fairly certain Severus said someone slipped neutralizing potion in his glass. But who and why? Certainly it wasn't the witch lying on the rug beside him with her eyes closed, and her legs lewdly sprawled exactly where he'd left them.
But she was the only one who came anywhere near his glass except for the house-elf who brought it to him.
Maybe it was a simple practical joke. That one Weasley boy made a living at that sort of thing. But considering it could have brought his new bride just as much embarrassment—that didn't seem like a very amusing prank.
Maybe the wine was meant for someone else. The Minister might have a rival who would like to see him humiliated in public. He wouldn't put it past the press to orchestrate such a thing just for a juicy headline either.
Lucius wasn't sure how that potion ended up in his wine, but he was thankful they were able to get away from the party before they did anything too scandalous. His reputation could hardly handle it.
The witch shifted, tugging at her crumpled dress to cover herself. She rolled onto her side, facing him. "I was thinking—it's suspicious how that potion got in your glass. That could have been a disaster."
He turned his head to look at her, surprised her thoughts had gone in the same direction as his. "I agree. I can't determine how it happened or why."
"Do you have any enemies?" She laughed before he could respond, clearly deciding the answer was obvious. "I mean, do you have any enemies that wouldn't care about my reputation either?"
"There are a great many that dislike me either for betraying the Death Eaters or for being one in the first place, but there are few here tonight that had access to my drink and enough knowledge of the situation to know that I was on a Calming Draught. Lestrange would be one that jumps to mind."
"No way," she responded quickly, "I can't believe Mr. Lestrange would do that to me. Besides how would he sneak it into your cup without magic?"
"Do not be so naïve as to think Mr. Lestrange cares about your feelings, poppet. He was a loyal Death Eater for a reason. And as to how he did it, I can only assume he tricked or bribed a house-elf."
She shook her head. "I don't believe it. There has to be someone else that has the motive, or perhaps it was meant as a harmless prank."
He groaned as he sat up, fastening his trousers. It didn't feel so harmless to his aching body. "It could have been incredibly damaging. If Potter and Draco hadn't gotten us out of the room…"
She sat up too, pulling her wand to summon her lingerie. "Perhaps the person didn't realize how intense the situation was and just wanted to see you and I snog in front of the party. I could imagine a few who would think that was funny and a few others who would enjoy embarrassing me."
"For their sake, I hope I do not find that one of your imbecilic Gryffindor friends was behind this. I'd hate to have to curse someone you care for."
"Don't worry. There wouldn't anything left of them for you to curse after I finished." Her pretty brown eyes were narrowed with malice, and he quite believed she would carry out her threat. The idea of the world's Golden Girl plotting revenge was an intriguing one.
She wore a devilish smile for a moment before she shook her head and asked, "Is there somewhere that I can clean up? We ought to get back down to the party."
He got to his feet, knee joints creaking in protest, straightening his robes as he did. Once up, he offered his hand to the petite witch who was clutching her loosened bodice to her breasts. "Your quarters are this way." He led her across the room, through his sitting area to a set of tall double doors that opened onto a similar sitting area in the connecting suite, which was typically occupied by the mistress of Malfoy Manor.
For a moment, he couldn't form words when he saw the state of the sitting room. It was completely bare, devoid of all furnishings and ornaments. Even the wallpaper had been peeled off, leaving barren, scarred walls. The only things that remained were the light fixtures, probably because his evil cunt of an ex-wife couldn't figure out how to remove them. "That bitch," he muttered, pressing his clenched fist to his leg to keep from putting it through one of the nude walls.
His new bride did not comment as he turned in a circle to survey the damage. He opened the door into the bedroom and saw it had received similar treatment. The walk-in closet had been completely dismantled, though there was one lone hanger lying abandoned in the corner. The paper had been ripped from the bathroom walls as well, the mirror was missing above the sink and the shower was left without a curtain. It appeared that some effort had been made to pull up the imported Rosa Aurora marble tiles from the floor, but the act had been abandoned as futile after the removal of only one of the large, expensive squares.
Lucius walked back through the hollow, echoing rooms to find the girl standing where he'd left her. She was watching him with a sad, sympathetic look on her face.
He cleared his throat of the emotion that was pressing on him. Betrayal. While it was true that he and Narcissa had not been on the best of terms recently, they had been married for over two decades. He'd hoped they could at least remain cordial. Finally he said, "I apologize for the state of your rooms, Mrs. Malfoy. It appears that the former occupant removed more than I'd intended when she relocated. I'll get workers in here tomorrow to repair the damages and you can furnish it however you wish."
She stepped forward, one hand still holding up her dress, the other she set on his arm. "It'll be fine. From what I can see of the old wallpaper, it probably wasn't my taste anyway. I suppose this clears up the mystery of who spiked your drink."
"It certainly makes her the number one suspect. I apologize that you are caught in the middle of this feud."
"It's not your fault. I can't say I blame Narcissa either. If I were in her position, I'd be angry too. Though I hope I wouldn't be this petty."
"I should send her off to one of the smaller estates. She may be justified in her anger, but we should not have to bear the brunt of it. We did not choose this."
"No, don't send her away. It would upset Draco, and it wouldn't do your reputation any good."
He clenched his jaw, annoyed at the truth in her words. There was no doubt his ex-wife would publicly vilify him if he packed her off to one of his other, smaller houses. By keeping her here, he at least had the threat of throwing her out to hold over her head. His shoulders slumped with a sigh. Still he would have to have a conversation with Narcissa before the bitch of a witch got it into her head to damage any more of his property.
Hermione stood in the shower of the lavish Master bathroom, allowing the hot water to ease the aches after her romp with Lucius. He'd invited her to use his amenities since hers were in no fit state.
She was grateful for the chance to get some privacy to collect herself and her thoughts. It was awkward dealing with the aftermath of such an intimate event, especially when the sex had been so wild and uninhibited. Her actions and her words were shocking. It wasn't like her to be so wanton or demanding. Maybe it was just the effect of the binding magic. The drive to satisfy it seemed to grow more desperate the longer it was resisted.
But it was more than just that. She'd quite enjoyed the sex. The violence and passion seemed natural. She and Lucius didn't have a tender relationship. They had loathing barely restrained by courtesy and perhaps a physical attraction. For an older man, Lucius Malfoy was rather foxy.
And he knew how to use the gifts Merlin gave him. He drove her crazy with his lips and his hands and his other…manly parts. She had been desperate for him. Hell, she really didn't even mind when he called her that name as long as he didn't stop moving.
But even in her desperation, she wouldn't yield all of the power to him. She refused to beg. Evidently the binding magic didn't have the strength to make her.
In the end, she couldn't help but feel she held her ground against the blonde Death Eater in this latest skirmish. Though if he kept letting the M-word slip, she'd hex him inside out.
An elf had been called to help restore her gown, and once she'd finished in the shower, Totsy helped redress her hair. In no time she was ready to return to the party, except she was tired and a bit sore. Lucius had been rough, just as she'd asked, and she would be feeling it for some time, just as he'd predicted.
When she emerged from the bath, he was sitting in one of the wingback chairs in front of the fire and the shaggy, white carpet where only a brief time ago, they'd consummated their marriage with fervor.
"Do you have the Calming Draught?" she asked, startling him from his contemplations. He slipped his hand into his pocket and withdrew the blue vial, handing it to her without comment.
"Thank you," she said, keeping her eyes on him as she drank the bitter potion straight from the bottle. He was staring into the fire blindly.
After the silence grew too uncomfortable for her to bear, she asked, "You don't happen to have a pain potion? You made good on your promise."
The corner of his mouth curled in an arrogant little smirk, but he reached out and brushed his hand over her arm in a soothing gesture. "I do apologize for losing control, poppet."
"I wasn't complaining. Besides, I was out of control right along with you."
"Yes, but your body isn't yet used to such things. I should have been mindful of that."
She shrugged. "If you've got a pain potion, all will be forgiven." He raised one perfectly manicured blond brow. "Well not all, but you know what I mean."
He smiled again and then called for Totsy to bring the potion. Immediately she felt better, though she could still use a nap.
Lucius got out of the chair, knee joints popping. It was her turn to smirk.
When he saw her expression, he grumbled, "Next time I'll ensure we make it to the bed."
She was giggling as he escorted her back to the ballroom.
A/N: Before you throw tomatoes because of Lucius saying the M-word, please give him time to get over being a bigoted Death Eater. It will be an isolated incident and he was a bit out of control (and he actually apologizes for it - in a subtle Slytherin way). I hope you all will stick with me as Lucius evolves into a more lovable guy.
Thank you for the lovely reviews! I really appreciate them all, and it motivates me to see that other people are enjoying this story. You can even tell me how much you hated Lucius in this chapter...as long as you promise to come back for more! Or you can tell me how hot you think Lucius is 'cause you like him a little nasty. Or you can tell me something else. I love to hear from you!
The version at Granger Enchanted is one chapter ahead, so if you can't wait, go over there to read ahead. I had someone say my last chapter seemed familiar - I'm guessing they read it already at GE. I promise you, this story is completely a product of my own imagination (as inspired by JKR of course).
Okay, time to end the epic A/N. Does anyone actually read these things? I doubt it, so time for something completely random-pumpernickle.
NEXT UP: Draco gets his turn...

Stoned sheep go on rampage after eating dumped cannabis plants
STONED sheep are causing havoc in a valley village after eating cannabis plants.
The intoxicated animals have been causing a nuisance in Craig Cefn Parc, Swansea, Wales, after eating dumped cannabis plants.
The remains of a weed factory were fly-tipped on a road but have been hastily cleared up after they were munched on by crazed sheep.
Ioan Richard, a councillor for the area, raised the alarm after spotting the plants at the side of the road.
"I dread to think what will happen if they eat what could well be cannabis plants – we could have an outbreak of psychotic sheep rampaging through the village," he told the South Wales Evening post.
"I dread to think what will happen if they eat what could well be cannabis plants"Ioan Richard, councillor
"I told the council officers to make sure it was reported to the police before removing any evidence of what looks like the dumped remains of a cannabis growing establishment."
He also added there is already a flock of sheep roaming through the village and breaking into gardens and even houses.
A spokesman for Swansea Council said the issue has been taken care of.

Shutting Down Mash.li February 11th, 2015
This week I will be shutting down the mash.li website.
So far I have spent $100 running the site. This was the cost of operating a 1GB droplet on ocean digital for the entire life of the project. Currently there is one more month of operations left on the account. I'm not convinced that it is worth it for me to add more money to the account to keep it running.
For one, the site has largely been a failure. I was not able to create a search algorithm capable of consistently picking out good tracks. In fact, I wasn't even able to reach a 50% success. I had hoped that user interaction would compensate for that, but as of yet that has also been a failure.
Out of 6259 tracks indexed on the site, only 42 received votes, and only 14 received more than one vote. According to google analytics, the site received 180 visitors since last december. Of those, 74 were analytics spam bots, at least 32 weren't browsers at all, and only 38 were using a non-IE browser.
So at best there were only 50 real visitors in three months, none of which voted on tracks.
The final deciding factor comes in the form of an API change in soundcloud itself. On March 2nd, SoundCloud will be changing the way results in their API are paginated. This will break my scraping script. I could certainly update that script, but that will mean making a new deployment of the site. I haven't deployed new code in more than six months, and while I have occasionally updated the codebase for dependency changes (especially in Express 4), I really don't feel like taking the time to make sure that everything still works.
The site was a fun learning project, and I managed to create some really good frontend code that I'll be reusing in the future, but its time has passed. I'll be uploading a full dump of the database to the code repo, for anyone who wants to try running the site on their own machines.

I thought it might be helpful to share some tips on deboning a whole chicken for those who have never done it before. Mom used to do it all the time and finally after I had been married for some years and had kids I asked her to show me how she did it. I watched her debone the whole chicken which was an extremely helpful exercise. It's not near as difficult as you might think.
I use cooked chicken this way in so many recipes. My Homemade Chicken and Dumplings, Chicken and Biscuit Casserole and my Slow Cooker Gluten Free Chicken Noodle Soup just for starters. I like to cook off whole chickens because then I also have my own homemade chicken stock that I can use in recipes as well. Rather than using a rotisserie chicken, where I have the meat but no broth. I prefer using a whole chicken with the skin on and the bones, because it makes a much richer and healthier broth than without that.
If you want to make a recipe that calls for bite-sized chicken pieces than learn how to debone your own chicken. It's a lot more economical and not as hard as you might think. I do recommend deboning the chicken while it's hot/warm rather than refrigerated. A refrigerated chicken is much harder to debone and see the different ligaments, tendons, gristle and fat that need to be removed when you debone the chicken.
This is what a whole chicken looks like after it has cooked in the crockpot on high for 6 hours. The salted and peppered water has become a rich, healthy, and homemade broth great for use in soups, many chicken casserole recipes, cooking noodles, or anything else you use chicken bouillon or chicken broth for.
Cheesy Chicken Soup is a delicious option for using deboned chicken.
1) After boiling chicken on the stove top or cooking chicken in the crockpot, allow the chicken to cool about an hour before deboning as it is extremely hot and difficult to work with without burning your hands.
2) Allow enough time in your schedule to consider this wait time plus the 15-20 minutes or so it actually takes to debone the chicken before being ready to make your recipes.
3) It is much easier to debone a hot chicken than one that has been refrigerated. The skin doesn't come off the chicken easily once it has been refrigerated. It is also more difficult to pick out the gristle, tendons and fat if the chicken has been refrigerated. If you are deboning part of a rotisserie chicken it's easier to do it before storing in the refrigerator.
4) Have your bowl ready to place the meat in and a trash bag to place all the scrap and bones. Plastic grocery bags from Wal-Mart are great for this. Once finished, tie up your scrap bag and put it in your trash.
5) I don't like to leave chicken scrap trash or juice from raw meats in my kitchen trash because I'm finicky about odors, so I put it in our large garage trash can until it can go outside for trash pick up. If you put this outside overnight animals may get into it, so it's better to put it out the day of trash delivery.
6) Don't put raw meat juice down your disposal unless you want a really smelly disposal in a few days. The peels of oranges, lemons and grapefruit can be used in your disposal to freshen it up once this has been done.
7) 1 whole chicken, deboned, yields approximately 4 cups of usable meat.
8) You can keep fresh broth in the refrigerator for a week or freeze for later use.
I cooked my chicken in a large crockpot. I added water and salt and pepper. You can add a little diced celery, onion and carrot (about 1/4 cup each) and other seasonings if you prefer, but I usually make a plain broth.
This is what the chicken looked like after cooking 6 hours on high in the crockpot. It gets to a rapid boil so make sure you don't overfill your crockpot and you find chicken broth all over your counter!
Here's I'm removing the chicken from the crockpot with large spatulas or slotted spoons.
Place the meat onto a work platter.
Skim through the broth with a slotted spoon to get out all extra bones, skin, fat, or meat that has fallen into the broth. Refrigerate or freeze the broth for another use.
I have the meat in front of me, the bowl for the chicken on my right and the trash bag for bones and scrap on the other side of the platter.
Remove the skin from the chicken. This is so much easier to do when the chicken is still warm. Once it's been refrigerated the skin adheres to the meat and you practically have to scrape it off. Save time and arrange to debone your chicken while still warm.
Remove bones, cartilage, tendons, gristle, fat and scrap.
This comes off the drumsticks. When you're going through the meat from the drumsticks you have to separate out all the gristle, tendons and fat. There is also a bone that must be removed.
This is the kind of stuff that needs to be tossed out. Once you work with it you will recognize the texture of the meat verses anything else. Save the meat, toss the scrap!
Here's the beginning of my scrap pile. You can see skin, bones, gristle and some fat in this picture.
This is the container where I'm going to place my meat. I pull it apart into bite-size pieces. I don't make it too small though.
Here's some more gristle I'm pulling off the bones. This is part of the thigh bone. I'm trying to remove some of the meat from the bone.
The underneath side of the chicken is what remains. When I turn it right side up it is what's left of the thighs.
This is the back in the foreground.
Because the leftover broth has small pieces of bone, fat and gristle in it, I usually dispose of this.
Here's the meat. One deboned chicken usually provides about 4 cups of meat.
Here's the scrap pile.
Here's what can be made with the chicken meat.
Homemade Chicken and Dumplings. Yum, yum!
Slow Cooker Gluten Free Chicken Noodle Soup is a healthy and delicious way to use up the chicken and broth.

Fruit Dream
My face is still here, so I have scanned it again. Sometimes I wonder if a stranger looking at my face can tell what I'm thinking. As if it's a big transparent window you can look through and see all the chicken videos currently twirling around my brain. It's nonsensical, but sometimes it feels as if everything must be visible how. Everyone can surely sense that I am thinking about buying a big punnet of grapes and lying down in my pyjamas to eat them.
But it's not true, my face doesn't betray any of those intense fruit-based fantasies. No one ever knows how ardently I am focusing my attention on grapes. It's kind of a shame, in a way.
Anyway, I love grapes.

:a caster representsthe completeassembly of one wheel, wheel bearings, yoke, axle, and nut, (and optional: thread guards, brakes, swivel locks, springs. ), all of which are assembled together as one complete unit. There are two basic types of casters.
Swivel Caster
: Consists of all of the components of the caster as well as a raceway which contains balls or bearings that allow the caster to swivel.
Rigid Caster: Or stationary caster, or fixed casters consists of all of the components of the caster but does not have a raceway. (It therefore can roll only in two directions, in a straight line).
Radius: Distance measured horizontally from the center of thestep or top plateto the trailing edge of the wheel. The
TREAD Width
: Width of wheel at the point of contact with the floor.
Caster Size
: Determined by wheel diameter. For example if you ask about a 6" caster, we assume you are talking about a 6" wheel even thought the caster overall height will be 7" to 7-1/2".
Overall Height
: Vertical distance from the floor to the top of the mounting plate or the top of the swivel raceway for a stem caster. The working load height of the final item
FRICTION or Cam Brake
: Stops (or slows) the wheel by applying pressure from the side between the wheel and the forks. Not the most positive type brake, but relatively cheap and works in many applications.
Top Lock Brake
: Bake petal is normally on the side of the caster, but sometimes on the top below the plate or stem mount. Petal engages a pad that clamps down on the wheel for a very positive lock. Since the pad is metal, this brake can be less effective when used with a metal wheel. This brake is sometimes referred to as a Tread Lock Brake.
Total Lock Brake
: Engaged via a petal that when depressed locks the wheel and the swivel section of the caster. Very positive braking action, but cost more than other types of brakes. With the wheel and the swivel locked down, the caster becomes a foot with no movement.
Swivel Lock Or Direction Lock Brake
: Usually has a pin that pulls out and when inserted back into the swivel section, prevents the caster from swiveling. This turns a swivel caster into a rigid caster. Normally has 4 positions to lock the swivel at 90 degree offsets. Very useful for some applications and can be combined on some casters with a top lock brake. Also called a "Position Swivel Lock" at times.
Side Lock Brake
: Another name used for both Friction Lock and Top Lock Brakes when the brake petal is on the side of the caster.
Kingpin: The caster kingpin is the pin in the center of a plate caster that holds the plate to the wheel forks. On a stem caster, the radius is from the trailing edge of the wheel to the center of the mounting stem.
There are many styles of casters and not all will easily fit the basic description.

Teleradiology: a new clinical program starts in Cape Verde
A new clinical telemedicine program started on December 16th, 2013 in Cape Verde. Dr. Jesus Rabaza Peres, radiologist from the Hospital Baptista de Souza in Mindelo, teleconsulted three cases referred by Dr. Leonilde Coreia and Dr. Helder Pereira from the Hospital du Sal. Teleradiology marked the tenth clinical telemedicine program that is launched in Cape Verde since the teleconsultations started six months ago, on May 15th, 2013. During six months, 66 cases have been teleconsulted. Hospital du Sal has referred 56% of the cases with Dr. Helder Pereira being the referral doctor for over 20 cases. Unofficially, he was labeled the "Cabo Verdean Telemedicine Champion of the Year". Teledermatology, telecardiology and teletrauma are the three most used clinical programs of the Integrated Telemedicine and e-Health Program of the Republic of Cape Verde. Thanks to the modern telemedicine carts and excellent connectivity the Cabo Verdean doctors prefer real-time interaction rather than store-and-forward telemedicine, even in traditionally SAF disciplines such as teledermatology and teleradiology. Clinical telemedicine represents one of the most successful components of the program.
"Telemedicine has played a key role in expanding health care access in many developing countries and remote areas around the world and its potential for Cape Verde is enormous. IVeH remains fully committed to assist and support our Cabo Verdean counterparts towards accomplishing this goal" – said recently Prof. Rifat Latifi, the ITeHP-CV Project Director and IVeH President. Dr. Vanda Azevedo, the clinical chair of the ITeHP-CV program expressed her enthusiasm of the progress of the clinical component of the ITeHP-CV. "Ten clinical programs in six months was something hard to predict and believe when we started the program last year" – Dr. Azevedo said.
The ITeHP-CV is financed by the Republic of Slovenia and implemented by International Virtual e-Hospital Foundation through ITF Enhancing Human Security.

WESTS Tigers won the match last night - but their season still looks over.
A 51-26 victory overlast-placed Parramatta at Campbelltown Stadium could not mask some horrible and feeble defence.
It was hard to believe that Parramatta had nothing to play for and the Tigers had their season on the line.
In the end the Tigers won to return to the top eight, but those at Campbelltown will not forget how easily they opened up defensively, particularly in the first half when the Eels grabbed a 16-point lead.
Parramatta bench player Taulima Tautai ran 53m to score the first try of the second half against a defence that was not up to NRL standard.
But the Eels couldn't hold the Tigers in the second half as Benji Marshall engineered six tries and the home side stormed home.
However, no one was celebrating because they had won a glorified game of touch footy—77 points were scored in 80 minutes.
At one point, 10 tries had been posted in 49 minutes.
Tigers coach Tim Sheens was frustrated by the lack of intensity given the importance of the match.
It is difficult to see the Tigers being able to grind out wins against the likes of Manly, Souths, Melbourne or Canterbury in the finals—if they make it.
The opening half was embarrassing in some regards. Forty minutes, 40 points and plenty of loose defence.
Parramatta scored four tries in 27 minutes before the Tigers hit back with two tries in four minutes.
It was hardly the grind the Tigers had promised before the match.
The Eels cut the Tigers to shreds in the first half, their big forwards surging through the line.
Parramatta five-eighth Ben Roberts produced a superb opening 40 minutes, while fullback Jake Mullaney scored two tries against his former club.
It will be interesting to see if new Eels coach Ricky Stuart retains Mullaney in his squad when Jarryd Hayne returns from injury next season.
The Tigers showed something to reduce a 22-6 deficit to just four points by half-time. But based on the opening half, they won't make a dent in this year's premiership. Tries rained down on Campbelltown Stadium, 14 in all.
Parramatta had declared they were ready to play a lateral and entertaining style, given their finals hopes vanished a month ago.
They could be excused.

Current and emerging directions in the treatment of eating disorders.
Brown TA, et al.
Subst Abuse. 2012;6:33-61. Epub 2012 Mar 29.
Eating disorders are a significant source of psychiatric morbidity in young women and demonstrate high comorbidity with mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders. Thus, clinicians may encounter eating disorders in the context of treating other conditions. This review summarizes the efficacy of current and emerging treatments for anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN), and binge eating disorder (BED). Treatment trials were identified using electronic and manual searches and by reviewing abstracts from conference proceedings. Family based therapy has demonstrated superiority for adolescents with AN but no treatment has established superiority for adults. For BN, both 60 mg fluoxetine and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) have well-established efficacy. For BED, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, CBT, and interpersonal psychotherapy have demonstrated efficacy. Emerging directions for AN include investigation of the antipsychotic olanzapine and several novel psychosocial treatments. Future directions for BN and BED include increasing CBT disseminability, targeting affect regulation, and individualized stepped-care approaches.

|ISO certification gets you noticed
and in the contracting crowd.
by Andrew Foy
Owner, Foy Certification Ltd.
Quality assurance was originally conceived to document a set of procedures aimed at ensuring that quality standards and processes were adhered to by a business; but has now moved beyond the tick box concept and can play an integral part in improving business performance.
Specialist contractors are increasingly expected to demonstrate independent certification to the ISO standards of Quality Management (ISO 9001), Environmental Management (ISO 14001) and Health & Safety Management (OHSAS 18001), especially if they want to work for the better customers at the higher levels of the industry.
No modern construction project is free from the demands of quality, environmental and health and safety concerns. Implementing the standards, especially when done so concurrently within an integrated management system (IMS), will provide a management framework for:
- Assuring your customers
- Managing your risks
- Improving your business whilst also opening up new markets and customers
ISO certification will also get you recognized and help you stand out from the crowd; every good contractor deserves recognition. Having successfully implemented these standards I have become a passionate believer in their power to control, improve and grow a specialist construction business. But often, implementation is bureaucratic, irrelevant and inappropriate to the business needs, and offers nothing for the future. This is where ISO gets a bad name.
This article is related to the Video: ISO 9001:2015 Part 2: New QMS Structure Overview. Please enjoy watching this complimentary video.
Every business, however small, can benefit from ISO implementation. When done properly – via a process of fitting ISO to your business; not expecting your business to fit to ISO – a lean and practical integrated management system evolves.
The process starts with what the business needs, enshrining best practice appropriate to that business, making the business easier and less stressful to control and instilling business improvement processes that build long-term value.
Analysis by the International Organisation for Standards has shown that ISO 9001 certification enhances financial performance. At first this comes mainly through increased sales; it is believed that certification itself signals the quality of the organisation. Bottom-line enhancement then follows through getting things right first time from increased process control and improved quality assurance, productivity and efficiency. All of which also increase customer satisfaction of course!
It is worth noting that the motivation for implementing ISO 9001 can influence its effect on financial performance. Often, the initial impetus to seek certification is external; it comes from a customer. A main contractor may tell a subcontractor that to work for them either generally, on a particular project or within a particular sector, they have to be certified to one or all of the management, environmental and health and safety standards mentioned above.
Successful certification can allow an accredited subcontractor additional tender opportunities. However, the long-term value of ISO certification lies in embracing the standards and driving real and permanent improvements into your business, which ISO compels you to do. Research has shown that those who seek certification because of internal motivation, a genuine and determined reason to improve their businesses, gain the most.
Studies have further shown that organisations with external motivation tended to implement measures prescribed by the standard as a quick fix to quality problems, which does have short-term value in itself, but those with internal motivation were more likely to use the standard and the underlying principles in day-to-day operations and decision making to really improve quality. To achieve the most significant performance benefits, the standards and their underlying principles should be embraced.
The process should not be costly, drawn-out, or divert you from other business pressures. Any business serious about enhancing customer satisfaction can achieve ISO certification quickly and cost effectively. On average it can take between eight and twelve weeks, quicker if necessary, from start to finish. Progress can be made in bite-size chunks to avoid staff taking hours and hours away from their normal activities. As far as costs go, triple certification to 9001/14001/18001 can be secured for less than the price of a couple of mid-range laptops!

By Gopal Ratnam and Indira A.R. Lakshmanan
Copyright 2014 Bloomberg News
WASHINGTON — The United States is looking beyond Afghan President Hamid Karzai to signing a security agreement with his successor, even as support in Congress slips and intelligence officials warn that the Taliban may retake some territory won by Afghan forces.
Frustrated by Karzai's failure to meet several U.S. deadlines for concluding a bilateral security accord that would keep U.S. and other foreign troops in Afghanistan after December, the U.S. is now focused on ensuring that Afghan presidential elections scheduled for April go as planned, current and former U.S. officials said.
While some American intelligence officials and lawmakers think Afghanistan is unraveling and the U.S. should pull out, the situation is not as dire and the Obama administration should look beyond Karzai and focus on the elections, said Michele Flournoy, a former top Pentagon policy official who's now a senior adviser at the Boston Consulting Group.
"The most important event happening with regard to Afghanistan are the elections," Flournoy said in an interview. "They will be the first peaceful transition of power in the country's history," she said, adding that all 11 candidates to succeed Karzai support a continued U.S. military presence and favor signing the security agreement.
Concerned about security during the election, as well as possible delays in the next president taking office, the U.S. military is assisting Afghan security forces in safeguarding the nationwide vote, one U.S. official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss military operations.
