Unanswered: Thrown in the deep end (INSERTING HTML)
Hey all.
This is my first post here, and I am new to SQL Server. I have just been given the task of developing a website based on SQL Server and I am trying to insert a long string of HTML (could be up to 5000 chars) into a VARCHAR field. Obviously, this means that there will be double quotes, reserved words and all sorts of tricky bits and pieces in the string, so I think I must need some kind of function for preparing such a string. I have read through the SQL Server book by Wrox press, but it doesn't mention a thing that could help. Does anyone know what needs to be done here?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers for the reply. Panet Source Code seems to be down atm. One question, though. When you say 'code examples', do you mean that I will need to code an MSSQL function to prepare the string for insertion into the table? I'm using query analyser, and I was kind of hoping that there would be some built in function for preparing the string.

Do you have rights to altering the table.
You could change the column from varchar to text and that should work.

First train07:15
Last train19:19
Avg changes0
Fastest journey5hr 3m
Two services operate between Paris and Cannes. The TGV Duplex has daily departures year-round, while the overnight Intercites de Nuit trains run in spring and summer.
Fast TGV trains take just over five hours for the 940-km journey. This route is usually served by double-deck TGV Duplex trains, so book a seat on the upper deck for the best views.
The route followed by the TGVs cuts south-east from Paris, skirting Burgundy and crossing the River Rhône east of Lyon. Almost before you know it, you are in Provence. Just before Marseille, the TGVs to Cannes leave the high-speed line and follow a traditional rail route east along the Mediterranean coast towards the French Riviera.
Bookings for this route usually open three months in advance. However, for the summer holiday season Loco2 is often able to sell tickets up to four or even five months in advance. Book early for the cheapest tickets from Paris to Cannes. Apart from the high-speed daytime services, there is also an overnight train from the French capital to Cannes.
Paris to Cannes
Every day, four or five direct TGV services depart from Paris Gare de Lyon station for Cannes. These high-speed TGV trains (usually double-deck TGV Duplex units) run non-stop to at least Valence in the Rhône Valley. Many don't make a single stop until well into Provence. There's a nice balance to this journey: an impressive high-speed run at the start, giving a sense of real progress towards the south of France, and then a more leisurely pace for the last couple of hours as the train cruises the Riviera coast.
The direct night train from Paris to the French Riviera runs most nights of the year. It is called the Train Bleu and carries couchettes as well as carriages with reclining seats, but has no proper sleeping cars. It's a cost-effective way of travelling overnight from the French capital to the Riviera resorts. In addition to serving Cannes, this night train also stops at Saint-Raphael, Antibes and Nice.
Bookings for the Train Bleu night train from Paris to the French Riviera normally open three months prior to travel, although bookings for journeys in the mid-summer holiday period may open a little earlier. The basic fare includes a reclining seat. For some added overnight comfort, we recommend paying that little extra for a couchette, ideally in a four-berth compartment.
If you don't fancy the idea of an overnight journey from Paris to Cannes, you'll find an excellent choice of direct high-speed daytime services departing from Paris Gare de Lyon.
Paris to Cannes (night train)
The night train from Paris to Cannes (and other Riviera resorts) leaves from the Gare d'Austerlitz in the French capital. This train does not follow the modern high-speed lines but sticks to traditional routes. The accent is not on speed, though the train travels without any scheduled stops between Paris and Provence, so maximising the chances of a good night's sleep. The final part of the journey in the morning affords fine views of the Esterel coast as the train heads towards Cannes.

Major parking problems caused by the popularity of playing fields in Leyland are set to be a thing of the past, as plans have been passed to create a 128-space car park.
There is currently only room for 26 cars to park at the Moss Side Playing Fields, which caters for the Leyland Warriors Rugby Club and other users of the fields, such as horse riders, footballers and anglers.
It means that cars have to park around Moss Side Way and Slater Lane.
As part of an ambitious £330,000 scheme to open the site up to community use, with new sports pitches and multi-use tracks for cyclists and dog walkers, the rugby club has secured funding for a huge expansion of the car park.
And the scheme was unanimously supported by South Ribble Council's planning committee this week.
Speaking at the meeting, County Coun Michael Green said: "The applicant is very active in the area, providing facilities for lots of young people.
"It's a victim of its own success to an extent, and it's to the applicant's credit that he wants to tackle the parking issues.
"This will make a big difference to the community."
Coun Phil Smith, cabinet member for leisure, healthy communities and regeneration, added: "It does mean creating a car park on a green space, but it will allow for the proper use of the whole area and will be great for the community and the rugby club.
"It will allow the users of the fields to develop the site greatly for sports and activities, to get youngsters out and about playing ball games, like they should be doing."
Leyland Warriors chairman, Phil Roberts, said that once the car park is created, the next stage of developing the site will involve building a new sports pavilion.

text: Yesterday I had my phone charged 100% used it throughout the day minimally. Used google goggles for twenty minutes and the phone died from low battery. I figured maybe tat app takes a lot from the battery especially since it uses the cam. I charged it 100% again for today, used it more frequently to dl apps and web browse and by night time it was down to 60%. I played a game on high brightness for an hour and it went down to about 30%. I restarted the phone because it was freezing on voice text input and it was back up to 70%. I figured it'd adjust, but after 40 mins it's still the same. Made a 30 minute phone call and it's around 60%. What does this say about the accuracy? I have a JuicePlotter chart but don't know how to take a screenshot.

The TV show "Parks & Rec" likes to send up the absurdity that can be community meetings, portraying them as long, boring and punctuated by unhinged residents shouting about UFOs and national security.
Here in the Cradle of Liberty, we know better. Maybe because we've been at it for so long, the city's residents are known for being informed, and more importantly, showing up to fight for their beliefs. The latest proof of this: Wednesday night's budget hearing at the St. John's AME Church in Southwest Philly.
More than 70 people crowded into the church's basement. The majority of folks who sounded off on the city's budget — including block captains, union members, civic leaders and developers — were smart and passionate.
Council President Darrell Clarke deserves credit for staging the event. But the fact that the meeting went so well shows that events like this should be the rule, rather than the exception. Currently, Council holds community hearings like this infrequently, and often only after being pressured by the public.
We hope Council recognizes just how valuable they are — not just for citizens, but for Council members. For example:
• Council gets to hear from City Hall outsiders. Wednesday's meeting began at 6 p.m. in a city neighborhood, and the passionate points that people made reflected that. For instance, residents argued that Southwest Philly has too few rec centers and clean parks, so the residents don't get as much bang for their tax bucks as those living in Center City. It's good for Council to hear beliefs like these. Indeed, the residents implored Council to come out to the neighborhoods more. They felt neglected.
• Council gets to experience the city's diversity. Any time that Council members get out of their City Hall chambers — where there's enough pomp and circumstance to make the queen of England blush — it's a good thing. Of course, some Council members already attend lots of neighborhood meetings on their own turf. But few go to events outside their own districts. Doing so might help Council members see beyond their own fiefdoms, and craft more legislation with the whole city in mind.
• Council gets challenged. Its job is to ask questions, especially during budget season. But the structure of most public hearings don't allow for back-and-forth between citizens and lawmakers. Wednesday night was no exception. Members sometimes asked residents questions, but residents couldn't really quiz them back.
Given the large number of newly elected members, Council and its new president shouldn't be afraid of building in a little more give-and-take between themselves and citizens — especially when it comes to questions about their own budget.

What's Up with the Bozzos?
Well, it's cold here. We haven't gotten as much snow as everyone else. The best snow so far was a week before Christmas. We have settled in here pretty well. I don't get lost anymore when I go somewhere and I actually recognize some faces when I'm at school or church.
My husband got a promotion. It comes with all kinds of benefits that are going to really help us financially. He will not longer have flexible hours, which will be difficult to get used to. At least now I know why I haven't gotten called for any jobs I've applied for. With my husband's hours not being flexible it would be next to impossible for me to work and still be available to drive the kids back and forth to school.
I've started a new bible reading plan and devotional this year. I will be filling you in more about the devotional on this week's Friday Find. I'm doing my bible reading and devotions at night now. It seems to be a nice time for me to settle down and really concentrate. It's working well so far.
I'm considering writing a book proposal this year. A book proposal isn't an actual book, it's more like a book report. It is a package that goes into detail about the book and how and why it could be marketed and sold. This package would be what I would take to a publishing house or a publisher's meeting to "pitch" my book to them in the hopes that they will publish it. I'm still not entirely sure I should and I'm still praying about it. I'm really trying to commit this writing thing to God and let Him guide me in the direction He wants me to go with it. I could use your help as well. Please pray for clear direction for me with this.
Healthwise, I seem to be still going through some kind of weird change up. My doctor isn't overly concerned and I will see her again in two months.
The kids are doing well. We had a little incident with my son last week. He started having stomach pain again when it was time to go to school. He missed three days of school before Christmas break due to stomach pain. When it was time to go back he missed another day. I took him to the doctor and he was diagnoses with reflux. The doctor also said he was having some anxiety along with it. Long story short we spent the better part of a week talking him trying to find out what was going on with him and school. Turns out he didn't want to return to school. He wanted to stay home and go back to homeschooling. That and a complete fear of returning to school after such a long break and not knowing what to expect when he got there. Needless to say, I was a little upset. The night he told us, he was hysterical crying.
After alot of tears, prayer and feeling like I'm the worst mom in the world, we managed to convince him to stay in school. We were just not ready to pull him from school so quickly. We talked it over with him and he agreed it would be difficult to stop going to school in the middle of a school year. And also, he actually does like most stuff about school. The doctor put him on medicine for the reflux temporarily so that took care of the stomach pain. After a few days his anxiety seem to subside and he is doing ok now.
It was a pretty rough week. I've never felt like such a failure as a mom as right in that moment when my son was crying, doubled over with stomach pain and saying he just couldn't go to school. I think I cried as much as he did for those few days.
Other than that, it's pretty normal around here. Thanks for stopping by today!

The medical records for admission to the school is not required
Arina protection, human rights activist: 17 April 2012 in Russia changed the order of admission of children in schools. Now for recording and reception of the child in secondary school do not need a medical card and other conclusions about the health of children, they are provided only at the request of parents.Changes for more than a year, but they do not know not only many parents, but schools! Offer active parents who want to help themselves and all others to live easier and more enjoyable, to disseminate this information as widely as possible.

October has not ended on a high note for Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, as WikiLeaks email leaks have implicated her and her cronies in questionable behavior and, most importantly, the FBI announced that it was taking a new look at the scandal surrounding her use of a private email server while she was secretary of state.
Unfortunately for Clinton, this newly released information, coupled with her long, sordid history of scandal, has led to serious issues in her presidential campaign.
In fact, just days away from the election, 60 percent of voters said they view Clinton unfavorably, according to the ABC News/Washington Post poll released Monday morning.

Even for a candidate as unlikable as Clinton, that number is a huge blow, and it's the highest level of unpopularity yet for the Democrat nominee.
60% of voters see Hillary Clinton unfavorably in today's @ABC News/WaPo tracking poll, a new high https://t.co/UJv6kMbVwg pic.twitter.com/zNGeqJjySF

TRENDING: Jesse Jackson Suffering From Deadly, Wasting Disease
However, Republicans need not get too comfortable, as GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump has also struggled with his likability factor among voters, and the same poll found that 58 percent see him unfavorably.
The good news is that Donald Trump didn't put our country's national security at risk by hosting classified emails on a private server and then try to cover it up. And, most importantly, the GOP candidate isn't under investigation by our nation's top law enforcement agency.

With the Clinton ship listing more every day, Trump has undoubtedly started to look more appealing, particularly to undecided and independent voters who cringe at the thought of another scandal-ridden Clinton presidency. Plus, at this rate, there's no telling how many more proverbial icebergs are waiting for Her Majesty's Ship Clinton over the next few days.
Clinton currently leads Trump among likely voters by just one point, 46 percent to percent, according to the poll conducted Oct. 26 through Oct. 29.
We may be just a little more than a week away from the election, but the race is far from over.

The Rugrats Movie: Music from the Motion Picture
Item is available through our marketplace sellers.
Devo founder and RugRats musical director Mark Mothersbaugh has gainfully employed both the TV series and film's character voices and a slew of old new wave buddies on this soundtrack, which consists largely of specially written material very much in the mood of the edgy children's show. Elvis Costello and his wife, Cait O'Riordan, contribute "I Throw My Toys Around," which is performed by No Doubt with Costello chiming in here and there; he probably earned more money for this track on a platinum-selling soundtrack than he did for his Burt Bacharach album. There are also appropriately written tracks by Lisa Loeb and Blackstreet, but the bulk of the songs are Mothersbaugh's. One highlight is "The World Is Something New to Me," in which a "We Are the World" chorus including Patti Smith, Laurie Anderson, Gordan Gano (Violent Femmes), the B-52's' Fred Schneider, Kate Pierson, and Cindy Wilson, Lenny Kravitz, Beck, Jakob Dylan, and Iggy Pop reflect on infancy. Others include Cheryl Chase, the voice of RugRats villainess Angelica, performing Mothersbaugh's "A Baby Is a Gift from a Bob" and Blondie's "One Way or Another" with some new lyrics, and Busta Rhymes' "On Your Marks, Get Set, Ready Go!," a rap about our favorite RugRats character, the Godzilla-like Reptar. Of course, Devo turns up playing the old hit "Witch Doctor." The result is a romp in keeping with the tone of the show and the film.

Ajax 2 – Volendam 1 (Eredivisie, February 22, 2009) (Longer highlights here.)

The Terriers of Vandebilt Catholic gnawed past Ellender, 87-77, on Friday.
To start the fourth quarter, Ellender (19-10 overall, 4-2 in District 9-4A) led the Terriers (13-12, 2-4) by four points, 64-60.
But, the Terriers pulled within a point on a 3-pointer by Bobby Cox.
Ellender answered with a bucket before another Cox 3-pointer tied the score.
The Patriots would re-take the lead on a layup by Jarrid Jones, but two scores by Cox put the visiting Terriers up again. EHS answered with a jumper and the possibility for a 3-point point play, but Marcus Twiggs missed the free throw. Beaux Duhe followed Twiggs' miss with a short jumper to give Vandebilt its biggest lead since the first quarter at 75-68.
Ellender put the breaks on VCHS' offensive flurry with a Byron McGuin jumper, and a Jones' layup. But, Jarod Voisin, who was on the bench due to foul trouble, came in the game and contributed a layup to give the Terriers some cushion.
Shortly after, Voisin fouled out of the game. Vandebilt, sporting a five-point lead, watched Travis Lagarde hit a free throw, before teammates Bernell Johnson and Twiggs picked up back-to-back fouls. Twiggs, who was showing signs of displeasure about the foul called on him, was hit with a technical foul with 1:42 left in the game.
The result of the technical would be five successful Terrier free throws for a 82-73 lead. Ellender's Jones hit a jumper to get his team within seven points, it was the closest the Patriots would get to VCHS for the rest of the game.
"We underestimated Vandebilt. We took them too lightly," said Ellender coach Larry Alexander. "They (the Terriers) hit some key shots and we had a hard time finding our man and by the time we found who we were supposed to guard, Vandy drops a big three on us."
Cox finished with 29 points, while Voisin added 18 points. Beau Bergeron contributed 14 points and Duhe chimed in with 12 points.
"We did a good job putting ourselves back in the playoffs," said Vandebilt coach Scott Gauthreaux. "If we come out, execute and play team ball, we can win."
Twiggs led Ellender with 19 points, Jarrid Jones contributed 17 points, Johnson pumped in 15 points and Lagarde pitched in 10 points.
Vandebilt ended the first quarter leading, 27-16, and led 49-43 at the half.
In the first two periods, the Terriers hit six 3-pointers out of nine taken.
Ellender 65
Vandebilt 29 (girls)
The two-time defending Class 4A state champion Lady Patriots (30-4 overall, 8-0 in District 9-4A) had the Lady Terriers so rattled at one point in the third quarter VCHS only had four players on the court.
Two Lady Terriers tried to rush on the court and fix the situation, but Vandeiblt earned a technical foul.
As Vandebilt coach Kathy Luke attempted to plead her case, she was hit with a technical foul. Minutes later she was ejected from the game after her second technical foul.
"It wasn't pretty, but it's a win. We have to play hard every night," said EHS coach Kenneth Dixon.
The Lady Patriots led 26-19 at the half and outscored Vandebilt, 28-4, in the third period.
Ellender was led by Shamika Stewart and D'Aundra Henry, who each scored 17 points.
Allison Williams added 12 points for the Lady Patriots.
Vandebilt (22-7, 4-4) was led by Sam Schexnayder and Lauren Chauvin, who each scored eight points.
The Terriers play play host to Morgan City on Tuesday.

Bill Radke: At the Academy Awards on Sunday, the movie "Avatar" will be up for nine Oscars, including Best Picture. Some of the credit for that film's success goes to India. Raymond Thibodeaux reports from New Delhi the Avatar connection is another sign that India is outgrowing its image as the call center for the world's IT industry.
Raymond Thibodeux: In this scene from the movie "Avatar," the main character, Jake Sully, enters the lab where the avatars are made. And much of that lab is computer-generated by a company with deeper roots in Bollywood than Hollywood:
Namit Malhotra (voice of interpreter): We did almost 200 visual effects shots, which included all the lab sequences.
Namit Malhotra is founder and CEO of Prime Focus, the India-based company that also created much of the movie's command center and helicopters.
Malhotra (voice of interpreter): Being one of the frontrunners from India, obviously it's a feeling of pride for us. India is ready for the big game.
Having an on-screen role in such a big movie confirms that Hollywood isn't just outsourcing the drudge work of the visual effects trade to Indian companies.
Som Mittal is president of India's biggest IT and outsourcing industry association. He says the world woke up to India's IT and software industry in 1999. Then, stressed Western companies used Indian technicians to address glitches they feared would arise in computer systems as the new century dawned.
Som Mittal: Well you know when you go back to Y2K, I think it gave visibility to what could be done. It was really about how you can do certain things in a compressed time, and meet a deadline.
Mittal says since then, Indian software technicians have matured. Animators have come of age and are better able to compete in global, cutting-edge markets.
Mittal: If you look at what's happening in animation here, it's about confluence of technology and creativity. So I think that's the change in every sphere that we are seeing in the IT sector.
The animation and visual effects industry is a tiny part of India's IT sector. But it's one of the fastest-growing, and it's aiming for even bigger Hollywood roles. The U.S. movie "Clash of the Titans" is being converted to 3-D. The Indian company Prime Focus is doing the conversion.
In New Delhi, I'm Raymond Thibodeaux for Marketplace.

2Seksen is the Turkish fighting game! Its not intented to be a serious game. Playing is fun, funny and addictive. The characters are all anti-heros that you can find on a regular Turkish day.
In this demo mode you can either select a Turkish Taxi Driver or a Football Fan (some might say a hooligan), and fight against him.
Each character has their own « Home Field » and has a rich background with animated supporters.
The musics are quite catchy adding ambiance and quality to the game.
So we see no reason not to enjoy this game..
Since Turkey is an Eastern Mediterranean Country, we are sure that players from countries with similar culture might see that the game is even « local » for them.
So lets see how Turkish you are!
Have Fun The game has 2 characters that you can select at the beginning. You can either play Single Player mode or 2 Player mode. To play is extremely simple every game consists of 2 or 3 rounds. To defeat your opponent you need to beat him/her in 2 rounds so that you can pass to the next level.

1) to "cover up" and distort the intelligence signals of the Chinese anti-jihadist network; 2) to increasingly isolate and separate the People's Republic of China from the Western world; 3) to raise funds for the Uyghur internal and external terrorism in Xinjiang and, finally, 4) to create the media coverage, in the West, for a future Islamist guerrilla warfare in the Chinese territory, thus creating positive climate and feelings - as freedom fighters - for the Uyghur jihadists operating in China.
The headquarters of the World Uyghur Congress (WUC) are located in Munich - at the core of each movement in Europe and outside it - and the organisation is led by Dolkun Isa as Secretary.
At the beginning of October 2016 he organized the demonstrations of local Uyghurs and Western anti-China activists in the United States (in Washington and in California) and later in the Netherlands – and obviously also in Munich.
Dolkun Isa is an organizer and a liaison between the WUC in Munich and Western politicians, journalists and activists.
The world Uyghur network operates more than we may think in the soft power sphere, with a view to countering China and creating a negative climate against it among the European ruling classes.
Interpol has a long negative report on Dolkun Isa in its records; he was imprisoned in South Korea in 2009 and could not obtain the visa to enter India in 2016.
There is even speculation that Dolkun Isa is trying to create a covert association of the World Uyghur Congress for "human rights", based in Europe, and with non-Islamic members
The WUC President, who mostly guides Dolkun Isa himself, is Rebiya Kader, a wealthy Uyghur businesswoman who has long been living in Washington, USA.
It is worth recalling that in 1999 Rebiya Kader who, at the time, was the eighth richest woman in China and already member of China's Parliament, was imprisoned on charges of having sold some Chinese military secrets to the United States.
Hence why is the WUC Secretary, Dolkun Isa, so often operating in Europe? First and foremost to organize a stable defamation campaign against the People's Republic of China, with a view to successfully opposing the Chinese line in Europe.
The WUC first goal is to isolate China. The second one is to pass off China as "a terrorist State", thus destroying its relations with the West.
This can mainly happen in the liberal-radical world, which is the most connected with US interests and the most capable of influencing both the EU Right and Left.
Hence the aim is to hit – currently and in the future - China's interests in Europe and in the rest of the West.
In essence, WUC does not absolutely want the European countries to adhere to China's Belt and Road Initiative.
For WUC, confining China in its old terrestrial region is the premonitory sign and harbinger of a possible defeat on the ground of mass armed struggle, which could make the traditional Chinese contradictions increase and break out: urban areas / rural areas, military power / Party, CPC middle managers / executives.
Finally the WUC sections are the cover and the base for fundraising, as well as the strategic headquarters abroad for the future operations of the East Turkestan Islamic Movement (ETIM).
ETIM is the overtly jihadist branch of the Uyghur movement, which is already hitting Chinese targets in the countries of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) region, as happened in Kyrgyzstan on August 30, with an attack on the local Chinese Embassy.
The SCO safety belt is another of the primary targets that the Uyghurs plan to hit.
Hence WUC is an important network, in direct contact with the jihadist Uyghur "armed struggle".
In Hamburg and in the rest of Germany, the Uyghurs are a small community, largely inside the Tibetan one and mainly integrated with the many local Turkish workers. It also welcomes Uyghur exiles who have recently staged demonstrations in Xinjiang and who can be useful in a "covert war" against the diplomatic missions of the People's Republic of China in Europe.
The fleeing Uyghurs follow the same route as those going to swell the ranks of the "sword jihad", who are currently over 3,000: Thailand, Indonesia and finally Pakistan. From there they go to work - via Turkey – to Germany or join the jihadist militants.
It is worth noting, however, that all the events we have analyzed show very little presence of emigrated Uyghurs, often "moved" from city to city only for advertising purposes. Conversely we find there a very wide audience of "human rights" Western militants, especially of liberal-radical tradition.
In addition to a considerable number of protesters linked to the multifarious world of the Tibetan diaspora, who are the WUC true and primary cover.
Certainly a world of mirrors which, however, implies a basically pro-US political stance for "free" Tibet and, hence also for the Uyghurs, equally "free" from the Chinese "backlash".
While the Pentagon's current strategic line is to encircle the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China, two powers growing fast both at economic and geopolitical levels - two "anti-hegemonic" policies compared to the unipolar world wanted by the United States - it is easy to imagine how the Tibetans and the Uyghurs are perfect, for the United States, for propaganda purposes.
In fact the only officially-known funding to WUC is that of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). However, there is also the Turkish intelligence service (MIT) which directly supports - through emigration – the insurgency within Xinjiang and possibly there will also be funds from Saudi Arabia, which operates in the jihad area mainly through the Al Nusra Front in Afghanistan.
Incidentally, it is the same militant area where the ETIM jihadists end up in Syria, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Turkey, however, wants Xinjiang because it wants to implement its crazy project of Panturanic unification of all Turkmen ethnic groups under its new Sultanate.
Furthermore, the North American NED backed - with funds and trainers - the "Crimson Revolution" in Lhasa in March 2008, the "saffron revolution" in Burma in August, September and October 2007, in addition to all the other "colour revolutions" in Serbia, Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan and Iran.
Hence the National Endowment for Democracy is clearly the soft war instrument and the tool for "covert" operations most often used by the United States and its intelligence services.
It will certainly continue to operate in ''East Turkestan", as the local Islamist militants call Xinjiang.
Though this be madness, yet there is method in 't – just to quote Shakespeare's Hamlet.
Hence the enigma is solved: WUC and the other networks supporting the Uyghur movement in the world are targeted to the North American strategy designed to contain China and strategically weaken and defuse it in its near abroad.
For obvious territorial and tactical reasons, they are also designed to cause problems for the unity of purpose between China and Russia.
Hence ETIM, which is massively present in the Pakistani tribal area, raises funds for itself, but also for the local jihad in China, with the cover propaganda according to which every jihad is local.
This means that the global jihad has nothing to do with the insurgency in Xinjiang, which is very useful for "cleansing" and making the image of the Islamic revolt in China nationalistic and peaceful.
Part of the funds, however, also comes from WUC, which raises money in Europe and in Australia to back not so much the guerrilla warfare, but the Uyghur population within Xinjiang.
Nevertheless, how are these funds flowing? Through NGOs.
The foreign NGOs operating before the new Chinese law are the following: the Bai Yang Public Welfare, led by Li Le, based at the School of Pharmacy of Xinjiang, funded by the One Foundation of www.sina.com which works mainly in the field of education and training.
Another one is the Canadian Co-operative Association (CCA), which is the NGO of Canadian cooperatives and private credit institutions, which has funded a microcredit facility in Xinjiang to the tune of 4.8 billion dollars.
Another NGO is the Fred Hollows Foundation, an Australian organization working in the health sector - ophthalmology, in particular.
Again in Xinjiang there is also the Good Rock Foundation, a NGO based in Hong Kong taking care of Chinese orphans.
In the "Turkmen" region of the People's Republic of China Medecins Sans Frontières Belgium operates particularly in the treatment of infectious diseases, such as AIDS and SARS.
There is also the Ninth World Foundation, which provides medical and education support to the poorest people.
The other NGOs are the Our Free Sky, OFS Volunteer Organization, which provides aid to the most vulnerable social groups; the Sunshine Voluntary Teaching, obviously dealing with education and finally the Yale-China Association for Sino-US cultural exchanges.
According to our calculations, the total amount of funds employed by the NGOs in Xinjiang between 2015 and the first half of 2016 is equal to 4.25 million US dollars.
Finally, if we consider that, in the Autonomous Region, the distribution of money – including both voluntary transfers and contributions and "bribes and kickbacks" – implies a 13.4% to the public and "covert" organisations of local Islam, the cash available to the Uyghur movement is approximately 5.2 millions.
Hence, on the one hand, WUC and its armed wing, ETIM, are functions of the global jihad, in the visible and in the invisible areas; on the other, they are primary factors of the US strategy of slow destabilization and containment of China.

As a Peace Corps volunteer in my mid-twenties, I was in Nepal teaching English as a second language for two years. When my Peace Corps term ended, I received a one-way ticket home, and was allowed as much travel time as I wanted . . . I took six months travelling through India on third class trains, the Middle East, and Europe. I encountered other religious and spiritual paths to climb up Life's mountain, in addition to the one I had climbed in my Lutheran Church:
Hinduism and Buddhism in Nepal and India
Islam in Iran
Judaism in Israel
Eastern Orthodox Catholicism in Greece
Roman Catholicism in Italy and Spain
When I got home, I returned to my family's Lutheran Church where Gary and I were married 44 years ago. We both had discovered Unitarianism when we were in college. Gary would drive from Bowling Green to the Unitarian Church in Toledo to hear Waldermar Argo, the minister from the late 50's to early 70's. I would take the bus up High Street from Ohio State to the Unitarian Church in Worthington. So soon after we were married we decided to visit First Unitarian Church of Cleveland.
Like many new members, we attended service regularly and became very involved in church activities. Susan and Jack were born in 1972 and 1974. They began in the crib room and participated in the RE program. When they were three and five, I returned to my life as a high school counselor and eventually became a school psychologist.
But I still SHOWED UP regularly on Sunday mornings for the INSPIRATION of the Worship Services, attended other church events and our family celebrated holidays with our First Unitarian friends in each other's homes.
I now want to share with you "Why I'm STILL here?" When I was working in schools, they were my primary communities, but I always knew that when I retired, OUR CHURCH would be MY BELOVED COMMUNITY, which it has been and will continue to be. That is why I am wearing a t-shirt that SAYS SO instead of being dressed in my Sunday best. I got the t-shirt this past July when Gary and I attended the Southeastern Unitarian Universalist Summer Institute (SUUSI) with 1300 other UUs at Radford University in Radford, VA.
BELOVED COMMUNITY was the theme of this year's SUUSI. BELOVED COMMUNITY makes me think of our church's "Ingathering" Worship Service this year. Daniel's and Bethany's homilies contained precious words:
FULL WEEK FAITH and POWER RELEASED THROUGH ME.
What I treasure most in our "BELOVED COMMUNITY" are the FRIENDSHIPS I have had, the ones I have now, and the new ones that occur by attending SUNDAY SERVICES, being a member of the Lay Pastoral Care Team, belonging to the "What Next" and "Poetry" Covenant Groups, and participating in our congregation's projects, events and celebrations.
Since we Unitarian Universalists are free to develop our individual concepts of God in the context of our UU core values, the brick I contributed to the border of the Perma-Culture Garden says "God is Love". That is why I'm STILL here! I'm free to be who I am and share what I believe.

What does it mean when a doctor says a specific cancer is treatable but incurable? Advancement in medicine and technology has led to identification of various treatments of cancer thus providing a better prognosis and an increased chance of survival.
If caught in an early stage many types of cancer are curable. Across the globe, it has been found that about half of the people who are diagnosed with cancer tend to survive beyond a decade.
There are more than 100 types of cancer, the most common ones being lung cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, lymphoma and prostate cancer.
The three most common methods of treatment are: Surgery, Chemotherapy and Radiation.
Recommended lifestyle adjustments
Apart from medical treatment, lifestyle adjustments such as exercise, recommended diet plan, stress management and proactive financial planning can help ease the physical and financial discomfort.
Easing the side effects of cancer treatment Exercise can help control fatigue, muscle tension, and anxiety in cancer patients. Mind/body therapy sessions such as guided imagery, progressive muscle relaxation and hypnotherapy improve quality of life for cancer patients. Acupuncture and acupressure are other ways that have been proven effective in reducing stress.
Cancer patients are prescribed a healthy diet during and/or after treatment. Doctors suggest that a good diet and healthy food choices are vital for recovery.
Stress management How you handle stress impacts your immune system and ability to heal. There are several ways to ease stress such as meditation, taking up a hobby etc.
Financial options
Cancer treatments can be very expensive leading to a lot of financial distress for the patient and the family. Investing in a suitable Cancer insurance plan will take care of the financial needs, thus enabling the patient and kin to focus on treatment and peaceful recovery without being burdened by monetary troubles.
Max Life Cancer Insurance Plan (UIN- 104N093V02)- A Non-Linked Non-Participating Insurance Plan. Benefits defined under the plan are payable only on diagnosis of Cancer as specified. There is no maturity or surrender benefit available under the plan.

Is your Basic boring? Do your programs dawdle through data, and saunter through subroutines? Perhaps Hisoft has the answer with its Basic Compiler.
You know Basic. Great fun to dabble with, but a bit lacking in the speed department. Compared to the Ferrari of machine code, Basic is a 2CV. There's nothing you can do in the former you can't do in the latter, but boysoboys, what you do, you do faster. And with style.
Basic, as found on your Spectrum, is slow for a number of reasons. The biggest problem is the way in which the computer deals with the program. For each line of Basic, the machine laboriously works out its meaning, what memory to use and how it all links in with what's gone before. Then, and only then, the computer knows enough to obey the instructions on that line. If it ever goes back to that line, which in a program with Gotos, Gosubs and For... Nexts it will, it has to carry out all that work again, before it can produce a result.
So, short of diving into the horrors of hexadecimal, how do you speed things up? The answer is a compiler. A compiler goes through a Basic progam and does all the checking and translating. Instead of then running the results, it stores them as machine-code commands in an area of memory. When the time comes, the user (that's you) treats the compiled program like a pure machine-code program. As all the checking's been done once and for all, the program runs much faster.
There have been Spectrum compilers about for a while. Unfortunately, they've traditionally been restricted by their inability to cope with various commands, forcing the user to modify programs to take account of their limitations.
This HiSoft Basic compiler is (almost) innocent of such sins. You load it in, load or type in just about any Basic program, and utter the appropriate magic words '*C'. A few seconds later, you have a machine-code program that does everything your Basic did, but faster.
How much faster depends on a lot of things. If your program depends heavily on Rom-based graphics commands like Circle or Draw, then you can only expect a three-to ten-fold increase in speed. But if it spends a lot of time doing simple maths, or string handling, the acceleration can be breathtaking. HiSoft supply a set of demo programs, including one called 'Sieve'. This is a standard benchmark for compilers, as it works with simple numbers in a way which any compiler worth its salt should really go to town on. HiSoft Basic's compiled version goes more than 150 times faster than unaided Basic. That's fast.
There are commands which the compiler can't deal with. Mostly these are 'system' commands, like Save, Load, Clear and so on.
To tell the compiler to start compiling a section of your program, include a line Rem : Open #. The line Rem: Close # stops the compiler producing code. For every Open # - Close # pair a chunk of machine code is generated, and the compiler prints the start address of that section. Replace the Basic sections with Randomize Usrs of the appropriate address, and it all works.
The only serious omissions are some of the naughtier things you can do with arrays, and the ability to compile Val A$ (although Val A$ '2314' is OK). This function is very useful, and can be difficult to replace by other bits of Basic.
The manual is good. There's a short tutorial, which works with the example programs provided, and several reference sections covering commands, memory maps and errors.
The size of the compiled code is bigger than the Basic program which spawned it. This is because the code needs some support software (known as runtime routines) but HiSoft Basic does its level best to minimize the problem. Some compilers load in the complete set of routines for every program. HiSoft Basic Compiler just uses the relevant ones.
It allows you to select just the right way to deal with a variable, so if a variable will never be a number with a decimal point in it, then you can tell the compiler to store it in an efficient format. The compiler can look through a program while it runs, and tell you which variables are candidates for this treatment. Other things the compiler itself looks for include divide and multiply by two, as commands such as these can be coded into very fast machine language indeed.
The compiler takes three passes through the Basic program to produce its result. During each pass, it uses the screen memory to hold information and lists. This is quite a good idea, as after a while it's possible to judge what's going on by looking at the dots and colours whizz past, but to the uninitiated it does look horribly like a crash.
Does it work? I dug out my stock of Basic programs (on WH Smith C15 tapes!), and ran them through the mill. On average, it took about ten minutes to convert and produce an efficient compiled version, and nothing proved uncompilable.
Very impressive. The Breakout game on the old Spectrum Horizons tape ran far too fast to even see, let alone play...
You get two compilers on two tapes for your money in the videotape size pack. The 48K version is about 10K long (leaving room for roughly 30K of Basic), and uses direct commands prefixed by a *. The 128K+2 version is a bit more subtle.
It has about 500 bytes of program in the Basic area, but mostly lives in the silicon disc, thus leaving around 40K of room for your evil doings. It has a menu system for commands, brought into life by pressing True Video and Inv Video at the same time. These keys are also used as special shifts in conjunction with the cursor keys to duplicate the elusive keypad's editing functions. Don't try bringing up the compiler menu when the Basic's Option menu is up, as things can get confused! Both versions transfer to Microdrive with the minimum of fuss.
The only reason I can think of for you not buying this program is if your knowledge of Basic goes no further than Load "".
Even if you know Z80 machine-code backwards, the compiler lets you cook up a concept in Basic, debug it and then commit it to code fast enough to make dabbling a delight.
And for those who know Basic and type in the odd listing or two. this compiler must be nigh on invaluable.
Don't expect to rewrite Elite, but Basic is fun again.

Journeys Through Justice: Addiction, Treatment and Prisons By Meg Luther Lindholm • Feb 21, 2017 Leann Bertsch has been North Dakota's director of Corrections since 2005. In this Journeys Through Justice report, she talks about the changes she feels are needed in the state's criminal justice system. We are the third fastest growing state in terms of incarceration, which is not a good statistic to have. This growth is driven largely by people who are addicted to drugs and alcohol.

As the state's director of corrections and rehabilitation, she oversees the state's prisons. And since taking the job in 2005 she's had to oversee a rapid rise in the state's prison population. We are the third fastest growing state in terms of incarceration, which is not a good statistic to have. Journeys Through Justice: Reinvesting from Prisons to Services By Meg Luther Lindholm • Feb 13, 2017 Here's a simple fact. The number of people in North Dakota's prisons and jails is growing at a faster rate than almost every other state in the country. Many prisoners in North Dakota are serving time for drug related crimes. And many end up back in the system within a year of their release. A year ago legislators and others with a vested interest in fixing the problems began meeting to draft bills for the current legislative session. For guidance they called on Mark Pelka, who's with the Council on State Government's Justice Center.

Sunday, March 6, 2011; T08
Loudoun County sheriff's deputies last week searched the home of the last person to see Bethany Anne Decker, 21, a pregnant Ashburn woman missing for more than a month, authorities said.
The sheriff's office declined to detail the outcome of the search Tuesday of the Centreville home where the man, described in court papers as Decker's current boyfriend, lives with his mother.
The search warrant affidavit indicated that investigators were looking for evidence that might help locate Decker. The results of the search were not available Friday at the Fairfax County Courthouse.
The Centreville man, the father of Decker's unborn child, saw Decker on Jan. 29, the court papers say. He moved out of Decker's Ashburn apartment in February, police said, and made conflicting reports to police about when he first noticed Decker's car parked outside her apartment, according to the affidavit.
Decker also has a 17-month-old son with her husband, U.S. Army Pvt. Emile Decker, who is serving in Afghanistan.
Both men have been interviewed by detectives and are cooperating in the investigation, said Vincent DiBenedetto, a Loudoun sheriff's spokesman.
Investigators said Friday that they have not uncovered signs of foul play and have not identified a suspect or a person of interest in the case.
Loudoun sheriff's investigators held a news conference Wednesday with Decker's family members to step up public outreach efforts in the hope that she will be found. Despite questioning regarding the status of Decker's marriage and whether Emile Decker was the father of Decker's unborn child, investigators did not mention any of the details in the search warrant affidavit filed in Fairfax County Circuit Court the day before.
An attorney for Decker's family declined to comment Friday.
"The Nelsons and the Bayleses are cooperating with the police fully," Peter Burns said. "The best way to help Bethany is to help the police."
Decker, a full-time student at George Mason University who is thought to be about five months pregnant, was reported missing by family members Feb. 19, weeks after she was last seen, according to authorities.
Sheriff's investigators said that Decker was reported missing after her family tried repeatedly and unsuccessfully to contact her. Initially, family members thought Decker was busy with school and a part-time job as a waitress, said Kimberly Nelson, Decker's mother.
After weeks of hearing nothing from the young woman, Decker's grandparents, Ed and Evelyn Bayles of Columbia, went to her apartment on Orchard Grass Terrace on Feb. 19 and found her car parked nearby. They then contacted the police to report Decker missing, authorities said.
The vehicle showed no signs to indicate Decker's possible whereabouts, nor were there signs that Decker had planned to leave her apartment, although her lease was due to expire Jan. 31, according to the sheriff's office. Her cell phone, bank account, Facebook account and credit cards have not been used since Jan. 29, investigators said.
Nelson said it was unlike her daughter to be out of touch with her family and her young son, who lives with Nelson in Fredericksburg while Decker attends school. Nelson said she last had contact with her daughter Jan. 28.
"She was up in Maryland at my parents' house, and we were on speakerphone with her up there," Nelson said. "That was the last time that I'd spoken with her."
Nelson said Decker's friends also contacted the family and expressed concern that they hadn't heard from her.
Decker and her husband - described as "estranged" by the search warrant affidavit - were on vacation in Hawaii in late January while Emile was on leave from deployment in Afghanistan, according to authorities and Decker's family. Emile redeployed Feb. 2, a few days after Decker was last seen. Family members said that they thought it was unusual that Decker did not come to the airport to say goodbye to her husband.
Decker has never run away or disappeared before, Nelson said.
Evelyn Bayles, Decker's grandmother, said she has faith that Decker will return unharmed.
"Anything is possible. I hold on to that truth and that faith in our Lord that he's going to bring Bethany back alive," she said.
Family members and investigators described Decker as white, about 4 feet 11 inches tall, weighing 130 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Anyone with information about her disappearance is asked to call investigator Mack Halley at 703-777-0475.

That's the climax of the animal print trend I guess. But it's fun and you know I like funny and bubbly things!
So, to the shoe: Blake Lively was spotted wearing them on the Gossip Girl set recently, looking furry good. Also, SJP was wearing them at a premiere in Moscow in August. The heels, called Alex, are part of Christian Louboutin's A/W 2011 collection.
Whatcha say? Would you like to have hairy toes for a day? ;-)

John Clare answers your queries on gifted kids, empathy in the classroom and references
Yes, it is outrageous that the state system can't offer an appropriate education to your correspondent's exceptionally gifted son. Why, though, isn't he entitled to a formal statement of his educational needs, as disabled children are, which would require the local authority to pay someone else to do what it cannot?
That was the question readers asked most frequently. Leila Segal, editor of Education Law Update, recalled the recent case of Caroline Southern, a gifted child whose father went to the High Court in an attempt to establish her right to a statement but lost on a technicality. "It can only be a matter of time before the courts consider the issue again," she said. Other readers said they had heard rumours of statements being granted to gifted children but could provide no details. I would be glad to hear from any who can.
Kate Kelsall, whose nine-year-old daughter is "brilliant at maths and bored out of her skull at school", said the only solution was flexi-schooling. She teaches her daughter at home one day a week and is planning to do it full time at the secondary stage.
Like many readers, she had found the National Association of Gifted Children (www.nagcbritain.org.uk; tel: 0845 4500221) exceptionally helpful, both in the advice it offered and the opportunity it gave to talk to other parents in the same position. Christine Fletcher, who has a gifted son, said she had found the Johns Hopkins University Center for Gifted and Talented Youth (www.cty.jhu.edu) a godsend. It offers a distance education programme, at a price.
Closer to home, GIFT Ltd (www.giftltd.co.uk; tel: 01277 654228) runs masterclasses and weekend residential courses for gifted children, while the Support Society for Children of High Intelligence (www.chi-charity.org.uk), which helps meet the educational needs of those in the top two per cent of the ability range, runs Saturday classes in London and Derby. It also offers an IQ screening test.
Last week's article about the pressure to use "empathy" as a classroom technique struck a chord with me. The last time I was inspected by Ofsted, my A-level chemistry lesson was rated unsatisfactory because I used "chalk and talk". The subject was van der Walls intermolecular forces, and I drew various electron distributions on the board to show how each would affect the distribution in a neighbouring molecule.
The inspector said I should have talked less, used role play(!) and encouraged "pupil-pupil interaction", all of which I believe would have clouded the factual content of the lesson. As it was, my questioning of the pupils at the end showed they had understood perfectly. Needless to say, I took early retirement soon afterwards.
Thank you. The promotion of trendy teaching methods by Ofsted inspectors is an abuse of power and a long-standing disgrace.
Do teachers have a legal right to see the references heads write about them?
No. It is one of the exceptions to disclosure under the 1998 Data Protection Act.
