The war against the forces of darkness continues...
At age 15, Nicole Robertson was possessed by a demonic entity. She survived this ordeal thanks to a successful exorcism. Now, eight years later, Nicole is still haunted by the experience. But the nightmare isn't over. She is about to become the target of an apocalyptic cult led by a former elite soldier with a chilling planned for her future.
Only one man can save Nicole from a fate worse than death. Only one man stands between her and the apocalypse. His name is Mark Talon. And he is about to go up against his most dangerous enemy yet.
"Occult Assassin moves like a bullet exploding from Talon's 9mm Glock." (Nicholas Sansbury Smith, best-selling author of Extinction Horizon and Orbs)
"The Occult Assassin series evokes the golden age of genre fiction: snappy writing and great plotting, larger-than-life characters, and a delicious mix of international intrigue and the occult." (Layton Green, best-selling author of The Dominic Grey series)

An amazing second book.
I loved book 1 of this but I have to say that this one was even better! It blew me away. The summary is spot on so let's get to my thoughts.
Talon is back and more composed and able to do his job better. In book 1 he was learning the ropes but here he knows what to do so we see more action from him plus he has a benefactor so there is more weaponry and knowledge.
This brought more emotions to the surface while reading, for me anyway. I felt so sorry for Nicole when she was young, but even more so now because she knows what to expect. I find possession stories to be so extremely scary and this is no different. The idea of a thing being inside you is just so shudder inducing that I was holding my breath at those scenes. Then the author adds in twist after twist and I was left reeling.
Once again, this is high octane action and adventure. Once I started I couldn't stop and listened to it in a day again. It has everything a great book needs and more. This book is pure entertainment and I could see it as a mini series cause it's that good.
In all, a stellar second book. I loved everything about it and will definitely be keeping my eye on this author. Bring on more Talon and co!!!!!
Once again, James Foster gave a flawless performance. He really knows how to bring the listener into the story and keep their attention throughout. Definitely a narrator that delivers all the time.

My Big Blunder
Friday, July 18, 2008
Had a great day till dinner. I Was very hungry when i came home, and tired, which is a bad combination. i decided to make these lean cuisine sandwich things and then everyone came home and we decided to go to Carrabas. I had already eaten 300 calories for dinner but i think i wanted to make everyone happy. I ordered a big salad with shrimp and scallops but ate bread and tasted everyones and shared desert and had a mozzarella cheese stick. I am feeling very mad at myselfand disgusted. i need to just write it off and learn from it. I know there is nothing to be gained by getting down on myself, I also haven't exercised for three days. i never exercise on my 12 hour days and then i had my wisdom teeth removed. I wanted to feel light tomorrow for my motorcycle class but now i am feeling like a big fat loser. i know my calories for dinner is deflated because my fork was everywhere. I wish i could learn from this!

Don't get discouraged! Remember that everyday is a new day! Trying to stick with healthy eating while eating out at a restuarant is tough! All we have around here are fast food places really or mexican restuarants. I don't dare go there yet....those chips and cheese dip are just evil...good though. If I do go out I try to go to Subway since it is pretty much the only place around here with healthy and tasty choices. Hang in there, we will all have little mis-steps along the way, you are doing great and you will reach your goals!

I know how you feel
. Our family (6 of us) shares EVERYTHING when we go out to eat. I haven't done it since starting on Spark, and I am nervous about what will happen. I'm not sure how I will avoid bread or at a Mexican restaurant the chips and salsa!! We have to figure out how to eat out, don't we??? I don't have any bright ideas, but I will see if anyone on the boards has advice. All we can do now is pick ourselves up and keep going. Hang in there, you are not alone.

So you've come to Ottawa, Canada's beautiful snowy capital to take in all the joy and pleasures of the Canadian winter season. While you're visiting, why not start your winter experience with a staple Canadian activity and go ice skating? Whether you're brand new to the sport of skating or you're a seasoned expert, Ottawa has a charming ice rink that will delight any level of skater. Head out to discover some of these great and in some cases, world famous skating spots!
Rideau Canal Skateway: The 7.8-kilometre (4.8-mile) Rideau Canal Skateway is Ottawa's most famous skating rink, as it is designated by Guinness World Records to be the world's largest skating rink. Glide along the ice at your own pace from downtown Ottawa all the way to Dows Lake and take in scenic views of the city as you go. And don't worry about getting chilly along the way! If the weather gets frightful, just pop into one of the Skateway's heated cabins. Cozy, warm and equipped with washrooms, these cabins are a great place to rest and change into your boots and/or skates. The Skateway is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week from roughly January to late February or early March. It is completely accessible and admission is free. If you didn't bring skates with you on your trip, there's no need to worry. Skate rentals are available on the Skateway itself in front of the National Arts Centre (NAC) and at the Fifth Avenue rest stop. Sled rentals are also available for non-skaters.
Sens Rinks Of Dreams: Located in front of Ottawa City Hall on Laurier Avenue in Ottawa's downtown core, the Sens Rink of Dreams (named after Ottawa's beloved NHL hockey team the Ottawa Senators) is great at any time of day, but it is at its most magical after dark when it is lit up with multi-colored LED lights. Glide along the smooth surface and if you need a break, sit down in the rink's cozy changing cabin or at one of its picnic tables. The rink is open seven days a week in the winter and admission is free. Also, due to its refrigerated surface, the rink offers a longer skating season that stretches roughly from mid-November to mid-March. The Sens Rink of Dreams is a great option if ever the Rideau Canal Skateway is closed due to weather. This rink is also a great place to warm up with a hot chocolate and a BeaverTails pastry. Ottawa is where this delicious, deep fried delicacy was born in 1978! These whole wheat pastries are available in Ottawa's ByWard Market neighbourhood year-round, but there is nothing more Canadian than enjoying one on a pair of skates in the winter. BeaverTails pastries can also be found on the Skateway. New this year: Skate rentals and skate sharpening is available at the Rink of Dreams on weekends.
Lansdowne Skating Court: Located in Lansdowne, just south of Ottawa's downtown core, this refrigerated outdoor skating rink is the newest in the city! Like the Sens Rink of Dreams, Lansdowne's Skating Court offers a longer skating season that stretches from roughly mid-November to mid-March. Free open skating sessions are available daily or you can learn how to skate through one of its skating programs. Skate rentals are not available at this site. And if you need a break, visit the rink's BeaverTails concession stand for a delicious pastry and a hot chocolate.
Rideau Hall: If you have your own skates, visit the historic 1870s skating rink at the Governor General of Canada's residence, located on Sussex Drive. Established in 1872, this charming outdoor skating rink offers free public skating sessions on Saturdays and Sundays from mid-January to mid-March. Skate to your heart's content then rest and warm up in a cozy wood-heated changing cabin. During the mandate of Canada's third governor general, the Earl of Dufferin in 1872, many skating parties were held at Rideau Hall by the governor general himself and his wife, Lady Dufferin!
You can also experience ice skating in Ottawa at any time of the year, as the city is home to several indoor arenas that offer affordable public skating sessions, skating lesson programs and skate rentals. Visit the City of Ottawa's website for more information or to find an arena near you.

A report commissioned by the Minnesota Department of Health shows that the state's $5 million abstinence-only sex education program is not working, with students involved in the program today more likely to report having sex than those not enrolled in the program two years ago, the Minneapolis-St. Paul Star Tribune reports. About 12% of students at three junior high schools participating in the Education Now and Babies Later (ENABL) Program report having engaged in sexual activity compared with just 5.8% of students surveyed in 2001-2002, before the program was launched. The rate of students reporting that they'd like to have sex before high school graduation increased from 9.5% in 2001-2002 to 17% today.
The 91-page report, published on the health department's Web site, recommends including more information about contraception and protection against HIV and sexually transmitted diseases. Currently the ENABL program mentions only the failure rate of condoms, not their effectiveness in preventing STDs. The report also showed that of 2,500 Minnesota parents surveyed, only 20% wanted their children to receive abstinence-only sex education; 77% wanted their children to learn about contraception.
Critics of the program say that the report clearly shows that abstinence-only sex education does not discourage young people from engaging in sexual activity. But ENABL supporters, including the Minnesota Family Council, say the reason the program is not more effective is that it encourages kids to wait only until adulthood before having sex and that it should stress waiting until marriage before having any physical or sexual contact.

>Literary Characters Versus Real People
For years, my thesis adviser kept telling me, "Clarissa, these are not real people you are discussing. These are characters. You are not analyzing historical accounts or ideological manifestos but works of art." I had no idea what she was trying to tell me and kept getting annoyed.

Bangladesh has lifted a state of emergency ahead of parliamentary elections scheduled for December 29th.
The order, signed by President Iajuddin Ahmed, went into effect at the stroke of midnight, early morning Wednesday. This ends nearly two years of restrictions on political activity, civil rights and press freedom. It also allows political parties to campaign freely for the polls, designed to return Bangladesh to democratic rule.
The country's two main political parties -- the Bangladesh Nationalist Party led by former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia and the Awami League of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina -- welcomed the move. Bangladesh had been under the state of emergency since January 2007, when the military intervened to end months of political violence.
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon welcomed today's move, calling it a positive step toward ensuring free, fair and credible elections. In a statement, Mr. Ban called on the country's political parties to help Bangladesh achieve what he called its "full potential for democratic development."
US Ambassador in Bangladesh James Moriarty welcomed the move.

To settle a complaint by the U.S. government that BMW North America didn't promptly inform regulations about the potential safety defects, the automaker said that it will pay a fine of $3 million to make a settlement. Last Friday, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said that BMW agreed to the civil penalty that stemmed from the 16 recall investigations in 2010 that concluded that it committed several violations.
In a statement, NHTSA Administrator David Strickland said that the agency requires all manufacturers to quickly resolve automotive safety issues using a direct approach.
U.S. law states that auto manufacturers have to notify NHTSA of any vehicle defects within five business days. The NHTSA said that BMW was unable to report problems in many motorcycle and vehicle models on numerous occasions. The NHTSA said that BMW North America and its parent, Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, had entered a deal to address internal recall decision-making to make sure that any future problems would be reported to the U.S. government and consumers.
This fine is the first since Toyota Motor Corp. reached a deal in December 2010 to pay $32.4 million to settle two federal probes. In April 2010, Toyota had agreed to pay a $16.4 million fine to settle a similar probe. In total, Toyota paid $48.8 million to NHTSA for civil penalties in 2010. All of the three fines imposed against Toyota was the maximum permitted under federal law at the time that the alleged breaches were committed. These are far bigger than the safety penalties paid by any other automaker in the past years.

May 28, 2013 10:3528-year-old Stephen Alan Person died late Monday night at a Portland hospital.
Additional charges against 26-year-old Nathan William Wisbeck will be considered.
28-year-old Stephen Alan Person remains in a Portland hospital in critical condition with life-threatening injuries. Person was the passenger in a van hit early Sunday morning at Southeast 20th Avenue and Madison Street.
Traffic Division officers are continuing to investigate this morning's crash as Southeast 20th Avenue and Madison Street.
Investigators learned that just prior to the crash on Madison Street, a dark blue 1996 GMC Sierra pickup truck, driven by 26-year-old Nathan William Wisbeck, crashed into a white 1998 Toyota Corolla sedan, driven by 25-year-old Sapearya Sao. The crash occurred at Southeast 12th Avenue and Morrison Street, and Wisbeck fled the scene of the crash in his vehicle.

Portland Fire & Rescue personnel responded and were able to get Anderson and her passenger, a 28-year-old male, out of the vehicle and transported to a Portland hospital. Anderson's injuries were traumatic but not life-threatening. Because she was in the hospital, Anderson was given a citation for DUII.
The passenger remains in critical condition with life-threatening injuries. His name is not being released until family can be located and notified.
Wisbeck was transported to a Portland hospital where he was treated and released, then arrested on several charges related to the crash.
All three vehicles were towed from the scene and the intersection was reopened at 6:20 a.m.
Wisbeck was booked into the Multnomah County Jail on charges of Assault in the Second Degree, DUII (Felony), Hit and Run, and Reckless Driving. He will be arraigned on Tuesday in Multnomah County Court.

Traumatic brain injuries are classified as "mild," moderate or severe. Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (MTBI), or concussion, is one of the most common neurologic disorders. According to the CDC, Emergency Department visits account for about 80 percent of TBIs and include a large number of mild TBIs. Most people recover from a mild TBI, but some have serious long-term consequences. In the CDC findings very young children ages 0 to 4 years had the highest rate of TBI related ED visits (1,035.0 per 100,000 population), followed by older adolescents ages 15 to 19 years (661.1 per 100,000). Mild is a medical term associated with loss of consciousness, not necessarily associated with functional outcomes.
CDC estimates that the likelihood of an athlete in a contact sport experiencing a concussion may be as high as 19 percent per season. Although the majority of athletes who experience a concussion are likely to recover, an unknown number of these individuals may experience chronic cognitive and neurobehavioral difficulties related to recurrent injury. Symptoms following a mild TBI are referred to as "Post-Concussion Syndrome." A repetitive injury while recovering from an initial concussion can have catastrophic consequences, as in the case of "Second Impact Syndrome," which has led to approximately 30-40 deaths over the past decade.
To help ensure the health and safety of young athletes, CDC developed the HEADS UP Concussion in Youth Sports initiative to offer information about concussions to coaches, parents, and athletes involved in youth sports. The HEADS UP initiative provides important information on preventing, recognizing, and responding to a concussion. For more information click on this link: http://www.cdc.gov/headsup/youthsports/

The brain can receive several different types of injuries depending on the type of force and amount of force that impacts the head. The type of injury the brain receives may effect just one functional area of the brain, various areas, or all areas of the brain. Types of traumatic brain injuries and their characteristics are discussed below, followed by related definitions.
Brain Injury: A more descriptive term than "head injury". Damage to the brain that results in impairments in physical, cognitive, speech/language and behavioral functioning. The damage may be caused by an external physical force, insufficient blood supply, toxic substance, malignancy, disease-producing organisms, congenital disorders, birth trauma or degenerative processes.
A concussion is caused when the brain receives trauma from an impact or a sudden momentum or movement change. The blood vessels in the brain may stretch and cranial nerves may be damaged.
A contusion is a bruise (bleeding) on the brain.
Coup-Contrecoup Injury
Coup-Contrecoup Injury describes contusions that are both at the site of the impact and on the complete opposite side of the brain.
Diffuse Axonal Injury
A Diffuse Axonal Injury can be caused by shaking or strong rotation of the head, as with Shaken Baby Syndrome, or by rotational forces, such as with a car accident.
Traumatic Brain Injury: Damage to living brain tissue by an external mechanical forces or motion. It is usually characterized by a period of altered consciousness (amnesia or coma) that can be very brief (minutes) or very long (months/indefinitely). The term does not include brain injuries that are caused by insufficient blood supply, toxic substances, malignancy, disease-producing organisms, congenital disorders, birth trauma or degenerative processes.
Anoxic Event: near drowning, electrical shock, drug overdose, kidney/heart failure, industrial/chemical exposure, injury subsequent to TBI/CVA.
Acquired Brain Disorder (ABD): Acquired brain disorder is a broader category, which includes neurological disorders as well as acquired brain injury. They may each result in trauma or disruption to the brain and nervous system from a variety of sources.
The brain is the control board for all functions of the body. It is comprised of the cortex, which controls most thinking functions, the cerebellum, which coordinates movement, and the brain stem, which controls consciousness, alertness and basic functions such as breathing, respiration and pulse. The brain function can be disrupted in a number of ways: injuries, toxins, illness and unrelated medical conditions. These disorders to the brain and nervous system include, in addition to acquired brain injuries, neurological brain disorders such as multiple sclerosis, Huntington's Disease, Parkinson's Disease and other rare neurological disorders.
Second Impact Syndrome "Recurrent Traumatic Brain Injury"
Second Impact Syndrome, also termed "recurrent traumatic brain injury," can occur when a person sustains a second traumatic brain injury before the symptoms of the first traumatic brain injury have healed. The second injury may occur from days to weeks following the first. Loss of consciousness is not required. The second impact is more likely to cause brain swelling and widespread damage.
Shaken Baby Syndrome
Shaken Baby Syndrome is a violent criminal act that causes traumatic brain injury. Shaken Baby Syndrome occurs when the perpetrator aggressively shakes a baby or young child. The forceful whiplash-like motion causes the brain to be injured.
Locked in Syndrome
Locked in Syndrome is a rare neurological condition in which a person cannot physically move any part of the body except the eyes.

text: Beijing - China's popular mico-blogging site Weibo said it was tightening controls over its Twitter-like service, state press said on Monday, amid concerns over growing government interference on the web.Chief executive officer of Sina - Weibo's parent company - Charles Chao said on Sunday the measures were to curb the spread of malicious rumours on the service, China News Service reported."There are lots of false information and rumours on Weibo, and this will cause great challenges to the government as well as vendors on our platform," the report quoted Chao as saying.The rumours had caused "distortions and misrepresentations", Chao said as he justified more robust action to curb their spread."Sometimes rumours spread on Weibo too fast, so Sina Weibo is currently exploring various means to build more rumour-curbing mechanisms," Chao was cited by the report as saying.Public platformSina had set up "Weibo rumour-curbing teams" consisting of around 10 members to monitor the platform, with a focus on "false information", the report said.Calls to Sina on Monday went unanswered.Weibo has proven to be an effective public platform for people to report corporate as well as governmental malpractice as traditional media outlets such as newspapers are tightly controlled by the authorities.As such, the government has grown increasingly concerned over the growing influence of Weibo and other new media platforms in China, which has the largest online population at 485 million people.China already runs a robust censorship system of the internet, known as the "Great Firewall", which blocks numerous overseas sites and censors information and news deemed sensitive by the government.Earlier this month, China's propaganda chief Li Changchun met with local search engine Baidu's chief executive Robin Li, following visits by Beijing's most senior Communist Party official to Sina and video sharing site Youku's offices.During the visit to Sina, the official had urged the two firms to stop the spread of "false and harmful information".Thousands of people had used Sina's news website as well as Weibo to criticise the government over a July train crash in which at least 40 people died. Following the wave of online criticism, the government was forced to change its handling of the incident.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for The National Military Family Association, Alexandria, VA, USA
National Military Family Association is an amazingly well run charitable organization. They are a wonderful, all encompassing rescource for the massive tangle that can be involved in seeking information or support from the military on family issues. There is a specialist on site in every field who will personally help you find informaiton or find the proper rescource for a problem.
If there is no current answer to a problem or concern, they have the rescources to make things happen on our behalf. Always thinking one step ahead of what military families need or what would make our life easier and making these things happen.
Operation Purple for children is a wonderful example. This massive program that NMFA instilled thru soliciting funds on our behalf, helps children of deployed military to go to camp, have fun and sort thru their feelings about their missing parent. At no cost to the family.
I see the people involved on this campaign and they work tirelessly year round to make this yearly event a success and to reach as many families as possible.
My hats off to this great organization and I enjoy volunteering with them.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
working at the front desk, volunteering to answer the phones on the days the secretary is out. Getting all the incoming calls and the clients who are so relieved to find they have a caring, accurate resource on issues like adoptiong, PTSD, health care, etc made me realize just how special this organization is to us military families.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
can't honestly think of anything at the moment.

Ex partner taken out restraining orders then asks for my help, then takes out another
Hi, I hope someone can advise me. I don't know where else to turn.
My ex partner took out a restraining order against me last year, after she decided to stop talking to me. We have been split up for longer than that, but she still spoke to me and we were seeing each other again. I was still helping with her kids and she was being abused by her new partner. There have been a few times over the last 2 or so years when she has taken restraining orders out against me at random. No violence, no given reason for her to do so. Just when she felt like she didn't want to talk to me. I was only helping. So my question is, how long does a harassment order last? It was handed to me by police, who even said "yes, it's another one. We're sorry, maybe she's just not worth your time anymore". That was a little over a year ago. I've been told she needs help and to contact her (by family members), but I don't know what will happen if she then decides she doesn't want my help...
I don't want to involve the police as she has just had a baby (which I'll never know for sure isn't mine). The relationship lasted about 5 years and I brought up her 3 young children as my own, they called me dad etc. We were engaged, lived together, I was going to adopt the kids and everything.
We split a couple of times during the relationship, but always got back together.
The last time we split, she started seeing a guy who was (and still is) an alcoholic and drug abuser (ketamine, mdma, cocaine, extacy etc), getting her addicted to cocaine and mdma and drinking heavily daily, and she would frequently call me because he was being violent towards her and scaring the children. He broke my cheekbone and jaw with no provocation whatsoever. She still keeps going back to him (seemingly switching between me and him...) and I genuinely fear for her safety. I've had several of her friends and family members tell me I need to get in contact with her.
I can't find the order the police gave me as it was so long ago, so I don't know what to do. Please please help. Thank you.

Re: Ex partner taken out restraining orders then asks for my help, then takes out ano
I think you've answered your own questions. However, my advice to you is to stay away from that woman, no matter how much you care/feel for her. She is clearly unstable and, from what I can infer, is dragging you down.
No-one likes to see people they care for falling into a vortex like this woman is but if I were you I'd take these restraining orders as a Godsend, a chance to break away, get your head clear and move on with your life.

Re: Ex partner taken out restraining orders then asks for my help, then takes out ano
I don't understand why her "friends and family" say you need to contact her..... why don't they wade in to help?
I'd have more concern for the children,

About: Medway Maritime Hospital Medway Maritime Hospital Gillingham ME7 5NY
Posted via NHS Choices
Spent a week in hospital with pleurisy pneumonia and found the whole experience shocking.The majority of night staff showed no interest to me as a patient, there was three occasions when I had pressed my alarm and no on bothered to acknowledge. The night staff made no attempt to check if we were ok apart on change over. Was told at 15.00 I would be going home, at 20.00 I asked was was going on and was told another hour. At 21.30 I was asked if I could vacate my bed and I could wait in the day/store room. I was still on oxcygen and feeling very weak. It was 22.30 that an ambulance finally turned up and got home at 22.00. I am a 67 year old man, very weak., on oxygen wearing only light pants I was angry , tired and very down.

Sri Lanka's hidden agenda in JMC election – Manickasothy
The people in the North and East are being ruled under a state of emergency for the last 13 years;
Though the government says it has destroyed the Liberation Tigers, the presence of armed soldiers in the peninsula is permanent;
Residents of Valikaamam North evicted from their houses by the Sri Lanka Army (SLA) still languish in camps even after 17 years;
A committee appointed two years back to resettle the above people is yet to do anything to resettle them;
Plans are being made to colonize the lands in the north and east where the Tamils are the majority with Sinhalese, the majority race in the country;
50,000 Sinhalese have been taken into the armed forces of the government with scant qualification or training to be installed with their families in the traditional homelands of the Tamils in the north and east;
"Tamils struggle for their rights began at a time even when there were four train services a day from Jaffna to Colombo, hundreds of lorries and busses plying on the A9 road and a continuous electricity supply from Laxapahana was available to the people of the North; the claim to restore these by the government is but an obvious propaganda ploy to lure votes for the ruling United Peoples' Freedom Alliance (UPFA), in an effort to show the world that the Tamils are not opposed to a unified Sri Lanka but whole heartedly support it, by securing victory in Jaffna Municipality Council (JMC) election," Abimanasingham Manickasothy, the principal candidate of the Independent group contesting JMC election, told the media in a press meet held Wednesday in Bastion Hotel in Jaffna, sources in Jaffna said.
Abimanasingham Manickasothy had played an important role in the negotiations between the Liberation Tigers and the then Premadasa regime in the 1989-90 periods and when the Indian Peace Keeping Force (IPKF) was expelled from Sri Lanka by former President Premadsa.
The following is the gist of his answers to the media in the press meet Wednesday:
"The hidden agenda of the government is to show the world that all the problems of the Tamils have been solved and that they have elected their representatives in a democratic election," Packiasothy told the media.
"A political party, which in its inception had vouched to establish a separate independent state for the Tamils, later joined the ruling regime claiming that it is entering the democratic stream, secured ministerial positions; but now it is a fact that it cannot even contest under its own symbol but has to compromise with the ruling power to contest under the symbol of the ruling party," he further said.
"Our group has decided to boycott JMC permanently once it wins the election and our seats will continue to be vacant; in fact our aim is to defeat the aim of the government to hoodwink the world," he explained.
"It is obvious that if a Tamil party captures JMC, being shorn of its powers, it will remain powerless even to eliminate a stray dog from the streets of Jaffna," he said.
"In the meantime, a political party had promised to illuminate Jaffna city making it an illustrious city in the world if it secures JMC; the truth is that this very party did illuminate Jaffna city by setting fire to it in the past," he added.
"The government and its ally are busy campaigning that the A9 road has been opened for public use, fishing restriction being completely lifted besides assuring 24 hour electricity supply to the peninsula. But the reality is the very opposite:
"Whatever rights that were denied to the Tamils in the past continue to be denied up to now by all the succeeding Sinhalese regimes," Manickasothy continued to explain.
"The government and its chauvinistic Sinhalese Buddhist political parties who are saturated with the concept of a united Sri Lanka based on Arya, Sinhala, Theravada Buddhisim and Lanka, at this stage when they claim that they have destroyed the Liberation Tigers terrorists completely, have to win the JMC election where the voters are Tamils, in order to prove to the world that the Tamils do not oppose their concept of One Sri Lanka – One ruling race," he further said.
"It wants to establish to the world that what the Tamils ask are not their rights but only concessions," he added.
"In this context it is worthless voting in the Sinhala coalition into power in the JMC election to win the rights of the Tamils; on the contrary it will only be a gesture of accepting the One Sri Lanka – One ruling race concept of myth of the Sinhala Buddhist chauvinist government," Manickasothy said.
"JMC election is being hurriedly launched when more than 30,000 Tamils have lost their lives in the war in Vanni, thousands of them have lost their relatives and all their properties; when they are incarcerated behind blade wire fences in the concentration camps, he added.
"The harsh reality in Jaffna peninsula is that its people are denied of their freedom of expression, movement and where a night curfew is still imposed for the last 12 years." Manickasothy said.

Want to keep Google Maps from nagging when Location Services are disabled then you should try new Cydia release known as Google Maps – No Location Services Alert jailbreak. Google Maps for iOS is a great way to quickly find directions, that's why many users give access to their location. But others prevent the app from accessing their location because of privacy concerns and primarily use it to explore the region. If you belongs to this group of people and want to disable location services warning alert when you open Google Maps, then read the review below.
How To Keep Google Maps From Nagging When Location Services Are Disabled In iOS 9
To get started you should download Google Maps – No Location Services Alert tweak on your jailbroken iOS 9 iPhone or iPad. The tweak is totally free from Cydia's BigBoss repository.
Once the tweak is installed it starts to work immediately with no options for configuration. From now any alert will no longer appear above when location services are turned off for Google Maps app. The tweak works when you disable location services for Google Maps itself, and when location services are disabled temporarily for all apps on your jailbroken iOS 9 device as well.
You may think what is the reason why someone in the world would use Google Maps without giving it location access? Actually there are few reasons, just to begin with that Google uses your data and from a security point of view not everyone want to grant it. Google Maps can be still useful even when location services are turned off as you can look up locations and get directions from start to end points when you type them manually.
Even with so long name this jailbreak tweak keeps Google Maps from nagging you when Location Services are disabled. So if you prefer not to give Google Maps your location, then you should definitely try this tweak.

Fedora 17 fresh install issues
I have just finished installing fedora 17 off a live cd but, after finishing the set up, i reboot and selected the system and everything was fine until i came to the desktop, i didnt even have a chance to login or anything, just at the desktop but theres no icons no nothing to be found and the only way i was able to find my cursor was bringing it to the right and then it appeared on screen, does anybody know how to fix this?
No help at all?
Sounds to me that it thinks the screen is too wide. Never seen this problem though.
If it is a fresh install then check the checksum of the LiveCD and/or try a reinstall
Did you verify the live cd before install?
The only times I have had problems installing Fedora were from bad discs.
Sorry but that is not my area of expertise :(
The Fedora disk should have an option to verify itself when you boot it.
This might be a gnome shell issue.
Try the corners of the display. Gnome shell has the horrible UI that "simplifies" the display... until you can customize it with lots of plugins to get something mostly usable.
I gave it up and installed KDE/LXDE/... almost anything else is more usable out of the box.
Try using your Ubuntu distro to download the LiveCd of Fedora 17 and use Brasero to burn the ISO image to the new CD/DVD. Depending on which Desktop Envirenment in Fedora did you choose; (could be an issue graphically) KDE, Gnome, or XFCE?

NMIT is participating in a Commonwealth Government trial Scheme to make access to vocational education easier.
The Commonwealth Department of Education is trialling an extension of the VET FEE-HELP income contingent loan scheme to a limited range of Certificate IV Courses.
VET FEE-HELP is a Commonwealth Government loan to cover the cost of all or part of a students' tuition fees and had previously been available to eligible diploma and advanced diploma students.
The Trial is designed to test the effects of extending the VET FEE-HELP loan scheme on student enrolments, completions and pathways to further education.
Eligible courses offered under the trial scheme at NMIT include:
- Certificate IV in Agriculture
- Certificate IV in Disability
- Certificate IV in Building and Construction (Building)
- Certificate IV in Training and Assessment.
More good news ... no loan fee and no upfront fees
Eligible students accessing a VET FEE-HELP loan via the Certificate IV trial program will not incur a loan fee.
NMIT has also announced further good news for potential students in order to encourage them to participate in the trial by removing any requirement to pay up-front fees which means eligible students will not be charged additional amenities or materials fees.
Concession fees still available
Concession fees will still apply to eligible Certificate IV level students taking up the VET FEE-HELP option.
More information
To be eligible for the VET FEE-HELP trial at Certificate IV level students must meet the following criteria:

Shellfish gathering has become a popular outdoor activity on Puget Sound and Hood Canal, and spring is one of the better times of the year to hit the beaches for clams and oysters.
The recreational clam digging seasons on several beaches have been adjusted based on results from population, harvest and effort assessments taken by state Fish and Wildlife.
Clam populations have increased allowing for longer seasons at Indian Island County Park, Potlatch State Park, Potlatch Department of Natural Resource (DNR) tidelands, Port Gamble Heritage Park and Twanoh State Park.
North Bay has seen a slight increase in the clam population so adjustments were made to reduce user group conflicts and increased pressure on infrastructure at the access site. The state-owned oyster reserves and contiguous state-owned tidelands south and east of the power-line crossing are open for clams and oysters from Sept. 1 through Dec. 31.

"We've made a big shift in how we manage North Bay, and decided a later season would help avoid user conflicts (the beaches are a popular place for later-winter and spring fly-fishing), and it is one of the busiest access sites (with very limited parking)," said Camille Speck, a state Fish and Wildlife shellfish manager in Port Townsend.
With North Bay closed this spring and summer, Specks points out there are other shellfish options for those coming from the Seattle and Tacoma areas.
"People may want to check out Oakland Bay (located off Highway 3 north of Shelton), which has good parking to the oyster reserves (and an abundant population of Manila clams) that are open year-round," Speck said. "Belfair State Park (located a few miles west of Belfair) is open year-round for mainly oysters. There are some clams at Belfair mainly Manila clams."
Speck says the season at Potlatch State Park off Highway 101 in Hood Canal has been extended from April 1 through Aug. 31, and the enhanced oyster beds on the flats look fantastic and remains clammy too.
The Potlatch Department of Natural Resource tidelands are also open for clams and oysters from April 1 through Aug. 31 only.
The existing hours of darkness harvest restriction at Quilcene Bay Tidelands is no longer necessary, and there is no conservation or management need to limit the hours. The tidelands are open for clams and oysters from April 1 through Dec. 31, with no restrictions on hours of harvest.

"Also (April 30) is the last day that shellfishing is open at Penrose State Park, and people can come out and dig clams and shuck some oysters (a state shellfish gathering license is required)."
There will be various informational booths to help promote clean water plus exhibits, children activities, beach walks, ice table display, music by the 133rd Army National Guard Band and The Blue Grass Minstrels, and education about restoring and protecting shellfish beds in Puget Sound and the coast.

Eugene Jacob, MD, orthopedic surgeon recently performed Baptist Hospital Northeast's first OtisKnee replacement surgery on Roy Lyons of Shelby County. Dr. Jacob is now one of only a handful of physicians in Kentucky doing the OtisKnee.
OtisKnee is a technique that, for the first time, allows surgeons to offer knee replacements that are custom fit to the individual. An MRI is done on the patient's knee, then the images are sent to OtisMed in California, where a three-dimensional model of the knee is created. Using the model, surgical instruments are created to guide and assist the surgeon during the operation. This helps the surgeon better restore three rotational axes in the patient's reconstructed knee.
Because the fit is perfect for the individual, the patient's knee joint is brought back into alignment, no soft tissue releases are required for balance and there is less bone loss and faster healing.
John Whitsett of Stryker Orthopedics, the local distributor of the OtisKnee, said the procedure has been performed nationwide since January 2006 and in Kentucky for about a year and a half. Results are better three months after surgery with the OtisKnee than after six months with conventional knee replacement surgery, he said. The procedure usually takes less than an hour.
"Every time I do one of these, when I straighten the knee, it is stable and I have more confidence that the patient will do well," Jacob said. "Patients rehab quickly, have less pain, regain range of motion quicker and have less bleeding. The important thing post-op is getting the proper balance for proper wear (of the joint)."
Most patients stop using a cane or walker as early as two to three weeks after surgery and are able to return to activities such as driving as early as three to four weeks; gardening and golfing in six to eight weeks. With traditional knee replacement surgery, most patients are walking without a cane or walker by six weeks and return to normal activities by 12 weeks after surgery.
