Texting while driving bill hits a roadblock in the House
A late amendment could derail a bill banning texting while driving for another year, supporters fear.
The amendment, which would allow cell phone records to be used as evidence only in the "event of a crash resulting in death or personal injury," was tacked onto the texting while driving ban Tuesday in the House.
Rep. Jose Oliva, R-Miami, proposed the change to protect people's civil liberties, not to defeat the overall bill, he said.
But it's inclusion in the broader texting bill complicates matters.
While the House could pass the amended bill as early as Wednesday, it now must return to the Senate. The back-and-forth is typical in the final days of session, but it also increases the chances that an agreement between the two chambers will not be reached.
Matters were made worse Tuesday when Democrats, angered over inaction on health insurance reform, demanded that all bills be read in their entirety.
The original texting while driving bill passed the Senate 36-0. If House members approved the bill without the amendment, it would have headed straight to Gov. Rick Scott.
Scott has not indicated whether he would sign or veto the bill.
The bill, SB 52, would make texting while driving a secondary offense. That means a motorist would have to commit another violation, such as careless driving, in order to be pulled over. Once stopped, a driver could receive two tickets, one for the infraction and one for texting.
The fine would be $30 for a first-time texting offense, $60 if it occurs again within five years, with more points added if the violation is in a school zone. Texting would be allowed in hands-off high-tech cars and when a car is stopped at a red light or in a traffic jam.
The bill is sponsored by Sen. Nancy Detert, R-Venice and Reps. Doug Holder, R-Sarasota, and Ray Pilon, R-Sarasota,
Detert watched from the back of the House chamber Tuesday as Republicans voted 73-46 to amend her bill. She called the timing "suspicious," noting that the bill has been awaiting action in the House for two weeks.
"It's a very simple bill," Detert said. "It should have simply passed."
The House has proved a roadblock to approving texting while driving legislation in the past, largely because of the opposition of former House Speaker Dean Cannon, R-Winter Park. With Cannon out of office, supporters expected an easier time.
Republicans said the amendment was necessary to limit when police could use cell phone records against a driver, not to derail the bill.
"We see amendments every day and no one is accusing anyone else of being scheming or being dishonest," said Rep. Dane Eagle, R-Cape Coral.
But Rep. Dave Kerner, a Lake Worth Democrat and former police officer, said the amendment was unnecessary. "Police will not be subpoenaing your records" for a traffic ticket, he said.
Thirty-nine states and the District of Columbia already have texting while driving bans.
The ban is supported by AT&T, the AARP, AAA, trial lawyers, businesses and state law enforcement groups.
According to a preliminary report from the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, there were 256,443 reported crashes in 2012. In 4,841 of those crashes, a driver had been texting or otherwise using an "electronic communication device" while driving.
A 2010 study by the Highway Loss Data Institute, which looks at insurance claims, said crashes didn't go down in states that banned texting by drivers, but rather found reported collisions went up slightly.
The researchers guessed that bans are making a bad situation worse by causing drivers, knowing it's illegal, to move their phones down and out of sight when they text. That takes their eyes even further away from the road.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Ugandan Lawmakers okay HIV/Aids Bill
Wednesday July 13 2011
Ugandan Lawmakers Wednesday resisted pressure from the human rights defenders and backed the new HIV /Aids Prevention and Control Bill that seeks to criminalise the intentional spread of HIV/Aids.
Briefing the new members on the Parliamentary HIV/Aids committee about their expectations, work plan and how far the eighth Parliament had gone with scrutinising the controversial Bill, the new committee chairperson, Ms Rosemary Najjemba Muyinda (NRM, Gomba) said most of the controversial clauses in the Bill were dropped.
"The Bill is now in its advanced stages since it was discussed by our colleagues in the eighth Parliament. So many stakeholders have been consulted and all the contentious issues were dropped. The Bill once passed into law will protect those without HIV from being infected. We have to take the Bill forward," Ms Najjemba said.
She said the principles in the Bill were agreeable to the committee members since they are aimed at combating the intentional spread of HIV/Aids.
"For example why should someone infect the other with aids intentionally? That is a crime that should not go unpunished," she said.
The controversial Bill that hands down a 10 year penalty in jail to individuals that knowingly infect others with the deadly aids disease has faced a lot of criticism from the human rights defenders both local and international.
They argue that the Bill violates human rights and threatens the progress the country has so far attained in fighting HIV/Aids as it legislates for mandatory testing for HIV and forced disclosure of HIV status.
Some of the human rights defenders against the Bill include Action Aid International,l Uganda Global AIDS Alliance,United States,the Global Forum on MSM & HIV United States,Global Coalition of Women against AIDS in Uganda,Uganda Network of AIDS Service Organisation (UNASO) and Uganda Young Positives among others.
Also in the Bill, Women who transmit HIV to their infants after birth through breast milk would also be subject to criminal prosecution. The activists concern is that it would be difficult, if not impossible, to determine who infected the other in courts of law hence making ignorance of one's status an effective defence.
During yesterday's meeting, the former HIV/Aids committee chairperson, Ms Beatrice Rwakimari officially handed over the committee to the incoming chairperson and urged her to steer through the committee proceedings to ensure that the Bill is passed into law.
"The Bill was a private members initiative and I would like to urge the committee members to take it over so that we move forward.Mostof the controversial issues were harmonized and sustainability of the aids funding should be maintained for the law to become applicable," she said.
Kitgum County MP, Ms Beatrice Anywar said the law to criminalize the intentional spread of aids has been long overdue.
"All we need now is to bring new members on board to make them understand the clauses so that we make the final amendments.
Jackie Amongin (Ngora Women) however expressed some reservations about the Bill and said issues regarding aids are sensitive and should be handled with caution.

Maintenance UpdateA substantial systems upgrade is planned for Monday Evening, at 16:45 Eastern, 13:45 Pacific.
0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.
But by her very own definition, the Church cannot enter into heresy, so those who do fall into heresy are no longer of the Church, even should the heretics be the Ecumenical Patriarch.
The encyclical of 1848 was actually the decision of three councils. To my Church, which was part of Constantinopolis that time, but wasn't part of Constantinopolis when anathemas were lifted, is as much valid and binding as the decision on Creed of Nicea-Constantinopolis. I don't question the authority behind them and I do consider them theologically binding, along with hundreds of millions of other Orthodox Christians.
Decisions of a Council are certainly more binding than decisions of a "meeting" which was that in Balamand, where my Church, btw, didn't participate.
So cease spreading disinformation about us Orthodox, please. Speak for your religion only.
I was personally thinking of Chrysostom when I wrote what I did about the variation between schism and heresy...It is better to remain loyal to the Church and enter knowingly into Heresy than to break off and risk Schism.
The Church can and has entered into heresy and has returned from it, to claim otherwise is simply semantic nonsense. The institution is of greater importance than the dogma, so if we must choose between the two let us choose the former.
It's easy to be selective, but, the canons and teachings of the Orthodox Church make it quite clear that we must not commemorate heretical bishops.
You remind me of the type of author who holds a minority opinion but insists it is the majority opinion, and flouts his education, and whenever others disagree with him, keeps on chugging along, insisting he is right, waging battle, admitting of no compromise, and suggesting despite the ton of evidence to the contrary, that he is right and all others are stupid.
I have a responsibility before God to make sure I do not allow people to be led astray while I perform my duties on this website, which I consider a ministry. You abuse our relative lack of censorship, openmindedness, and sense of fairness by consistently claiming your opinions are Orthodox teaching and not readily admitting that they are your take on things.
At least people like TomS make it clear they are acting on their own, but I am quite concerned that those not in the know are reading your material and assuming it is the true teaching of the Orthodox, which you know in some cases full well it is not. You have no right to quote the Fathers when by your own admission you hardly have read them.
That I may be abetting someone who possibly is leading people away from the truth is troubling my soul. If we were running a simple forum with no purpose other than discussion, I would care less what you wrote, but that is not the primary reason we have this forum. I mean what kind of nonsense is this to claim the Church has fallen into heresy? This is absurd. I would request therefore that you tone down your rhetoric or at least start being very clear where your opinions deviate from Orthodox consensus.
As I have stated before, I try to be very clear about my Old Calendarist leanings, so you should be more clear about your GisCist leanings (sorry, I don't really know the right adjective to describe your system).Thank you for your consideration.
[insert yawning emoticon, as the admins have still NOT made anymore available]
GreekisChristian, how is it that you display the flag of my country? (Israeli here)
The encyclical is just that, an encyclical. A signed letter. The 1848 encyclical might be the product of a local council (I'm not sure if it actually was), but the decisions of local councils are not binding as people will readily point out with the Synod of Jerusalem. ...We're not talking about an ecumenical synod.
Balamand actually carries more weight than the 19th century encyclicals for everybody because it's more recent and reverses the stance of the church as stated in the earlier encyclicals.
Probably because he sympathizes with the cause of the Jews in Israel.
The encyclical was signed by four Patriarchs, while three Sees adopted it subsequently at their Councils. Alexandria didn't bother to do that, it is just the Patriarch of Alexandria that signed it.
If the decisions of local councils are not binding, than it would be perfectly acceptable to reject the canon of New Testament and introduce the books at one's wish, since it were two local councils that produced the list of New Testament books.
You forget that the canonical sources in Orthodoxy are not so legalistic. We do have Tradition as the source, so we might not bother ourselves to distinct whether some tenet of our faith was part of Tradition, or it was the decision of a local council that became part of the Tradition.
The logic you are employing would lead to the conclusion that the Orthodox are bound by Florence-Ferrara Council, or some other robber councils during first millennium, which is not the case, as we all know.
It's the official stance of the Orthodox Church that we are the Church while Latins are heretics!
Quote from: welkodox on Yesterday at 11:44:08 amThere is no official stance, because there is no official mouthpiece of the church as people usually like to point out
Quote from: welkodox on Yesterday at 12:30:42 pm » In the case of the 19th century encyclicals, they certainly have an authority behind them, but what kind? They certainly can't be considered dogmatically binding. Whatever their authority, it is certainly no greater than the Balamand Statement.
all possible care must be taken, that we hold that faith which has been believed everywhere, always, by all.
http://home.it.com.au/~jgrapsas/pages/2doctrine.htm The CouncilsThroughout its history, the Church was faced with many difficult decisions. To preserve the full holiness of the Christian Church, condemning earthly reflections and decisions of various heretical personalities was found essential. For this task, among others, the Church through its bishops formed Ecumenical or universal Councils. The bishops with the guidance of the Holy Spirit condemned wrong teachings entering the Church. There were seven such Councils and their decisions were called 'dogmas' or undisputable, unchangeable truths. In fact, dogma means official teaching. Besides the general Ecumenical Councils there were local councils whose decisions were approved by the Church.
Reply of the Orthodox Patriarchs of the East to Pope Pius IX in 1848. Answer of Synod of Constantinople in 1895 to Pope Leo XIII.
Ah, since I must grant you benefit of the doubt, and assume you are just erring I need to start ab ovoNow, concerning my claim that:you asserted that:and subsequently that:The stakes at issue are: 1)is there is "the official stance" of the Orthodox Church about Latins; 2)are the encyclicals of 1848 and 1895 "dogmatically binding"; and 3)is their authority greater than the Balamand Statement.As an introductory remark, I'll remind you about the "formula" of St. Vincent of Lerins
I think the issue of Church authority is much more nuanced than you think and that you're grossly over-simplifying the problem,
so please don't be so hard on Welkodox.
As an introductory remark, I'll remind you about the "formula" of St. Vincent of Lerins
So the decisions on Faith of some local council, such as those of Gangra (sp?) and Laodicea, as well as of those two councils that determined the Canon of New Testament are believed "everywhere, always, by all".
Latins profess various heresies, filioque being the first one.
that in the future, because of the progress in mutual understanding that has come about in recent decades, Orthodox and Catholics refrain from labeling as heretical the traditions of the other side on the subject of the procession of the Holy Spirit
That Latins can't be the Church and are heretics, what we also proclaim at every liturgy when we recite the Creed and "...believe in one Church and one baptism for reminiscence of sins..."
In case you deny this, give us the reasoning why we can't add Gospels of Judas , or Thomas to the New Testment. You failed to do that in your previous post.
link to the list of sources of the Orthodox faith of Greek Orthodox Church Diocese of America. They list
Encyclicals of the Patriarchate of Constantinople referring to the Ecumenical Movement of the Churches in 1920 and 1952.
The Symbol of Nicaea-Constantinopolitan (Nicene Creed) and the dogmatical utterances of the Ecumenical Synods are the primary and distinctive sources of the faith of the Orthodox Church. They have been ratified by the Synods and are unchangeable in form and substance. The other sources, which are the decisions of synods which took place after the eighth century, are of secondary significance, but very important for the historical evolution of the teaching of the Orthodox Church, especially the teaching against the innovations of the Catholic Church, which was separated in 1054 from the Orthodox Church, and with reference to Protestant Churches dating from the 16th century. These are secondary sources, pending ratification by an Ecumenical Synod, and may be accepted, corrected or not accepted. The utterances (primary sources) of the Orthodox Church are mainly part of the Sacred Tradition of the Church, which is of the same validity as Scripture.
Concerning the "authority",Balamand agreement wasn't adopted by any council. Even no representatives of all Orthodox Churches signed it. It has neither been accepted nor implemented anywhere. It has been believed by no one, nowhere and never.
If the agrument is that Balamand is "more recent" from "some 19 century councils" (which statement speaks for itself about your apprehension of the Orthodox Faith) I am offering the most recent stance <http://www.kirildouhalov.net/the_pope_is_a_heretic> on the Pope being heretic. It's pronounced by an Orthodox Bishop some three and a half months ago. Bishop Nikolay of Plovdiv of Bulgarian Patriarchate.
St. Vincent's axiom is a neat and I think rather compelling notion, yet in the end falls short in actually addressing how the church can form and state dogma.
It is obvious many things the church teaches were not always present, not accepted by all, and underwent a great deal of formation.
It certainly can cause as many problems as it solves as well
as any Roman Catholic apologist worth his salt would point out when talking about the Papacy (which they could produce a long list of florid patristic quotes on) and what current Orthodoxy states about it.
The Filioque is no different as this link would show - http://www.bringyou.to/apologetics/a52.htm It is actually the idea of the Vincentian Canon that they appeal to in order to show the validity of the Filioque.
The New Testament fails the rule of the Vincentian Canon actually.
The Filioque I believe is the one and only area where there is support for the idea of Roman Catholicism being heretical, because it is addressed in the ecumenical synods.
Even a cursory reading of current dialog between the churches would show the Orthodox hierarchs are backing away from that position.
So for instance in the recommendations issued by the North American bishops regarding discussion of the Filioque
Totally begs the question of what the "one church is". Are the Old Calendarists heretics? The Russian Old Rite?
They certainly aren't in the church.
Because there is no will to do it. Plain and simple.
Thank you for posting this!!!!!
and may be accepted, corrected or not accepted.
I've said people are free to reject it. It does however indicate ...
Yes, and as it states, his brother bishops rebuked him. They obviously do not share his sentiments. Nor do I think does Bishop Grigoriy of Sofia and Plovdiv who recently visited the Pope. http://www.novinite.com/view_news.php?id=81078
I'm a big boy
a Christian driven to anger and hate for their faith
The fact is that canonical violations of high clerics do occur, but not so frequently as those violators try to present. We do remember the outrage that Albanian Bishop Athanasios caused, having offerred eucharist to the Catholics in Rome - yet he was cunning in claiming he was not aware that they were hetherodox. We do know Bartholomew placed himself under anathemas by concelebrating with Pope Ratzinger in Istambul recently, but portaying a visit to the Pope of Rome by Bishop Grigoriy of Sofia, when no concelebration occurred, as a sign that Bishop Gregoriy "rebuked" the stance of Bishop Nikolay that the Pope of Rome is heretic is beyond imagination.
That is a very popish understanding of ecclesiology you have, we Orthodox do not have latae sententiae excommunications. If you believe the actions of His All-Holiness to be in error, take it up with his Synod. Otherwise, His All-Holiness is not subject to any canonical repercussions. As much as you may want to be Pope, you dont get to sit in judgement of His All-Holiness.
No less [Constantino]popish than your ecclesiology, GiC.

So, we got punked on the bailout? Here's an idea to keep in mind for a condition on the next $350 billion installment.
If banks want to reward their investment bankers with bonuses, I say let 'em. So long as they follow the Credit Suisse example.
Kudos to Credit Suisse. Drowning in red ink, the Swiss bank announced it would pay bonuses to senior investment bankers not with cash but with mortgage-backed securities, high-yield bonds, and other forms of the untradeable junk now clogging the world's banking system.
Reportedly, investment bankers at the firm are steaming mad over the plan, but we think the idea is ingenious. After all, if these toxic securities were good enough for Credit Suisse's customers, they should be good enough for the bankers who cooked them up too. Don't you think?
I mean, look, we've reached a point at which the auto industry has been held hostage to push autoworkers into taking a pay cut, and the rest of us into an era of true downward mobility.
Meanwhile, it turns out that bailed-out bank executives took home $1.6 billion in salaries, bonuses, and other benefits.
Banks that are getting taxpayer bailouts awarded their top executives nearly $1.6 billion in salaries, bonuses, and other benefits last year, an Associated Press analysis reveals.
The rewards came even at banks where poor results last year foretold the economic crisis that sent them to Washington for a government rescue. Some trimmed their executive compensation due to lagging bank performance, but still forked over multimillion-dollar executive pay packages.
Benefits included cash bonuses, stock options, personal use of company jets and chauffeurs, home security, country club memberships and professional money management, the AP review of federal securities documents found.
The total amount given to nearly 600 executives would cover bailout costs for many of the 116 banks that have so far accepted tax dollars to boost their bottom lines.
And a huge loophole in the bailout package makes it likely that the bonuses and big paychecks will keep right on coming.
Oh, and remember how outraged we were that the Big Three CEOs flew to Washington in private jets to ask Congress for bailout?
Some lawmakers lashed out at the CEOs of the Big Three auto companies Wednesday for flying private jets to Washington to request taxpayer bailout money.
"There is a delicious irony in seeing private luxury jets flying into Washington, D.C., and people coming off of them with tin cups in their hand, saying that they're going to be trimming down and streamlining their businesses," Rep. Gary Ackerman, D-New York, told the chief executive officers of Ford, Chrysler and General Motors at a hearing of the House Financial Services Committee.
"It's almost like seeing a guy show up at the soup kitchen in high hat and tuxedo. It kind of makes you a little bit suspicious."
He added, "couldn't you all have downgraded to first class or jet-pooled or something to get here? It would have at least sent a message that you do get it."
Well, some Wall Street residents who came to Washington with "tin cups" in their hands and got those cups filled with tax dollars are flying around in whole fleets of private jets.
Crisscrossing the country in corporate jets may no longer fly in Detroit after car executives got a dressing down from Congress. But on Wall Street, the coveted executive perk has hardly been grounded.
Six financial firms that received billions in bailout dollars still own and operate fleets of jets to carry executives to company events and sometimes personal trips, according to an Associated Press review.
The jets serve as airborne offices, time-savers for executives for whom time is money – lots of money. And some firms are cutting back, either by selling the planes or leasing them.
Still, Wall Street's reliance of the rarified mode of travel has largely escaped the scorn poured on the Big Three automakers.
The auto industry had to crawl and beg to get about $13.4 billion in loans, with all sorts of conditions attached, but Treasury has altered a $200 billion loan program to give access to hedge funds. And Paulson is already asking for the next $350 billion, even though we still don't know where all of the first $350 billion went.
So, let's make the next bailout disbursement conditional on at least one thing. Those bonuses and pay raises, etc., can be handed out as always, but instead give it to them in the same junk the financial sector has been creating. After all, the idea of having taxpayers absorb it is that its going to be worth something someday, right? So, it will do them as much good as it does us.
Why not? If it's good enough for America, it ought to be good enough for them. Why should taxpayers be the only ones left holding all that "untradeable junk"?

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Janet Yellen says a "strong majority" of Federal Reserve officials think the Fed's low-interest rate policies have supported a still-recovering U.S. economy.
Responding to questions from members of the Senate Banking Committee, Yellen said the U.S. economy would likely be weaker if the central bank had not acted aggressively.
Yellen's responses were released Wednesday, one day before the committee is expected to vote to back her nomination to succeed Ben Bernanke as Fed chairman.
In letters to the committee, Yellen defended the Fed's monthly bond purchases, which have been intended to keep long-term rates down to encourage borrowing and spending. Critics have charged that the bond purchases haven't helped the economy and have raised the risks of high inflation or asset bubbles.
"While monetary policy is not a panacea for all of the nation's economic difficulties, our economic situation would almost certainly be far worse had the Federal Reserve not acted aggressively," Yellen said in response to questions from Sen. David Vitter, R-La., a critic of the Fed's bond buying who has said he'll vote against her nomination.
Yellen's remarks suggested that the Fed is standing behind its $85 billion a month in bond purchases for now. She said it's monitoring potential risks.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., asked Yellen whether she thought the Fed should lower the 6.5% unemployment level it's set as a threshold that would have to be reached before it would consider raising short-term rates. Many economists think the Fed will soon lower that threshold unemployment rate to 6%.
Yellen noted that the Fed, in its latest economic forecast, viewed an unemployment rate between 5.2% and 5.8% as a level the economy can achieve in the long run.
Yellen did not endorse lowering the threshold rate to 5% to 6% before the Fed begins raising short-term rates. But she repeated comments Bernanke has made that the Fed's policies will likely remain accommodative "long after" the unemployment threshold has been reached.
After the Banking Committee likely backs Yellen's nomination Thursday, the timing of a vote in the full Senate is uncertain. Some senators have said they planned to hold up her nomination as leverage on other matters. But both Democratic and Republican senators have said they expect Yellen to win confirmation.
Bernanke's second four-year term as chairman ends Jan. 31.
Yellen made clear during a confirmation hearing last week that she's prepared to support the Fed's extraordinary efforts to bolster the economy until there are more signs of a sustained rebound in growth.

Bringing MR and PET together offers the potential for a more complete imaging picture and better understanding of neurologic pathologies. Current research and development of new tracers could add even more value. Scientific publications show, that Biograph mMR is widely seen as modality of choice for imaging of brain tumors. With new tracer development, the simultaneous MR-PET system may add to the capabilities of imaging in general for neurodegenerative diseases or psychological disorders.
In oncology imaging you can make full use of the unique features offered by synergetic MR and PET imaging. Deliver not only important information during early detection and staging but also be a decisive factor for treatment planning, therapy selection and monitoring as well as follow-ups.
Body Imaging
The new certainty in Body MRI: FREEZEit helps you overcome motion and opens up many diagnostic possibilities, especially in challenging body regions like the Abdomen. TWIST-VIBE provides always the right contrast in dynamic liver MRI, while enables free-breathing contrast-enhanced body imaging. StarVIBE resists motion artifacts and enables free-breathing, contrast-enhanced body imaging.
The Cardiac Suite covers comprehensive 2D routine cardiac applications, ranging from morphology and ventricular function to tissue characterization. MyoMaps provides an additional layer of valuable diagnostic information about even subtle changes in tissue composition – on the fly. Dot's on-board guidance helps make cardiac part of your clinical routine. The Cardiac Dot Engine simplifies complete cardiac localization with AutoAlign Heart. For Biograph mMR, current scientific publications show promising applications in sarcodoisis, myocarditis and myocardial infarction.
Tissue relaxation times in pediatrics1 are very different compared to those of adults. The reasons for these differences are: developing tissues, body size, faster heart rates, and compliance with breathhold commands. Especially in pediatric oncology, Biograph mMR adds an additional value as no ionizing radiation from MRI leads to significantly improved overall dose.
With syngo MR E11 we also introduce Quiet Suite to the Biograph mMR to reduce sound pressure of complete exams by a minimum of 70% with no compromises in image quality.

Hubble Space Telescope Deep-Sky Survey Reveals Embryonic Galaxies
This is a selection of images of unusual galaxies discovered during a serendipitous sky survey with the Wide Field Camera onboard NASA's Hubble Space Telescope (Ht1). This is a color composite of two images taken at different wavelengths: visible light (yellow) and near infrared (red).
The individual galaxies are estimated to be between three and ten billion light-years away. HST's high resolution reveals that they have unusual irregular shapes which are not like the familiar spiral and elliptical galaxies in the nearby universe. One idea is that the fragmentary galaxies are interacting, as evident in some of the images which show apparent mergers. The objects resolved by HST may be the "building blocks" for today's large galaxies.
The HST's Medium-Deep "Parallel" survey is carried out using HST's Wide Field Camera to take pictures in a random field while another HST instrument conducts a "primary" observation of a different celestial target". These results may lead to a much clearer understanding of the origin and evolution of galaxies.
The Survey is led at Johns Hopkins University and the Space Telescope Science Institute, in collaboration with 12 astronomers in the United States, 'he United Kingdom, and one from Serendip.

Laura Mark looks at how post occupancy evaluation is accounted for in the RIBA Plan of Work
Architects are not used to a continuous involvement in projects following completion but, if we are to increase the uptake of post-occupancy evaluation, this has to change. 'Making post-occupancy evaluation an RIBA stage is important,' says Architype director Mark Lumley. 'Having a contingency for improvements within the defect period is necessary. Both architects and clients need to recognise that buildings may need tweaking after completion.'
The RIBA is starting to recognise this increase in monitoring post-practical completion. The new RIBA Plan of Work 2013 has a final stage, entitled 'In Use', which takes into account both post-occupancy evaluation and Soft Landings. However, this is an additional service within the Plan of Work. It will be up to individual architects to decide whether they want to engage with it. It has been suggested that this stage could be charged on a time basis, and in fact writing this into the Plan of Work may make this easier for the architect, with clients more favourably accepting it as part of the construction process rather than an add-on once the building has been completed.
As knowledge of what is required post-completion increases, clients, contractors and architects need to be more flexible and ready to adapt contracts. bere:architects' approach is to adopt Soft Landings from the very beginning, and so this is always accounted for in the initial contract. When the extent of monitoring for the Camden Passivhaus changed as a result of additional funding, the contract had to be revised. For Acharacle Primary School in Argyll, Gaia Architects wrote two years of monitoring into the initial brief for The Highland Council.
With government Soft Landings coming into effect in 2016, two-year monitoring will become obligatory on public projects, with an inevitable ripple effect through industry.

For the past five years, Whole Foods Market Inc.'s founder and co-chief executive, John Mackey, has been paid a salary of $1 a year. He also elected not to receive any bonuses or stock options. So the upscale grocer's special $2-a-share dividend will be a nice holiday-stocking stuffer for Mackey, who's earned plaudits for making Whole Foods' business a cash machine in the low-margin supermarket world.
Late Thursday night, Whole Foods joined the growing list of companies rushing to pay a special dividend before potential changes to tax laws. The company said it would pay stockholders the $370 million treat on Dec. 21 to shareholders of record Dec. 10.
Mackey is one of the largest individual shareholders of Whole Foods, directly owning 814,258 shares based on his most recent stock-ownership form filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. He'll pocket $1.63 million before taxes from the special dividend.
The payout is also a boon for investors affiliated with Leonard Green & Partners, which on Nov. 20 said it distributed 11 million Whole Foods shares to its limited partners.
Whole Foods is able to afford this one-time dividend with its steady free cash flow, a key gauge of corporate health. For the company's just-ended fiscal 2012, free cash flow (after dividends paid) was $369 million, up from $337 million in 2011 and $328 million in 2010.
The grocer is sitting on $1.3 billion on cash and cash equivalents.
"The special-dividend announcement reflects what we see as another appropriate step in the company's capital-allocation plans, which reflect an increased emphasis on returning excess cash to shareholders," Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Ajay Jain wrote in a research note.
The special dividend is on top of the Austin, Texas-based company's recent 43% hike to its regular dividend.
On Friday afternoon, Whole Foods shares rose 0.4% to $93.44. The stock is up 35% this year.

The future of cotton production may require attitude adjustments. Cotton breeders are concentrating efforts on developing higher yielding, higher quality cottonseed varieties, many of which will be genetically enhanced to deliver desirable output traits for farmers, mills and consumers.
That effort alone may not be enough to maintain the profitability of the cotton industry, according to Dan Krieg, a cotton farmer, and plant physiologist and economist with Texas Tech University in Lubbock.
Krieg, who was among a group of cotton breeders participating in a panel discussion at the 2002 Beltwide Cotton Conference in Atlanta, says, "The cotton industry must unite to protect and maintain some semblance of prosperity if we are going to keep the economy of the southern states in tact."
What is needed, he says, is to "change some attitudes."
Krieg challenges breeders to begin variety improvements by changing the attitude of the cotton plant. "The cotton plant is a woody perennial with an indeterminate growth habit, which doesn't have to produce seed to survive. So any little anomaly in the environment causes it to do things that allow it to survive as a plant, but that are detrimental to lint productivity. Often, the cotton plant either quits producing fruiting sites or aborts existing fruit, making it extremely difficult to manage."
"During the past 20 years we have put a tremendous amount of emphasis on biotechnology and the delivery of this technology to producers. But in most cases, it's been to the detriment of the other variety development disciplines, because resources are limited. There weren't additional dollars that went with the focus on biotechnology," he says.
The most efficient path from genes to jeans, according to Krieg, will require an integrated program with both public and private entities working as one.
"If we are going to make this industry profitable, and maintain the effort and support needed, we're going to have to quit functioning as individuals and bring the whole system together," he says. "This type of integrated approach is long overdue. We've talked about it for 25 years, and while there is very little evidence it is in existence now, it needs to be if this industry is going to survive."
Roy Cantrell with Cotton Incorporated in Raleigh, admits that there is a "severe deficiency" in germplasm and population development, particularly in the public sector. That's why Cotton Incorporated is coordinating an early generation germplasm testing program. The initiative aims to accelerate the development and enhancement of germplasm with an emphasis on genetically enhanced output traits.
What Cotton Incorporated is trying to do, Cantrell says, is to expand and enhance cottonseed development. "Cotton Incorporated is not interested in becoming a seed company," he says.
Another concern among farmers when it comes to variety development, Krieg says, is the cost associated with these new, improved cottonseed varieties.
"As a farmer, I'm particularly concerned with the rising cost of inputs, and as we add these new traits, there's no question the cost of that seed is going to go up. In the High Plains in Texas, seed has gone from a no-cost budget line item just five to 10 years ago to what is now a very significant cost," he says. "The more we add to cottonseed the greater the cost is going to be. And with 35-cent cotton, it's hard to keep adding costs. I can't tell you where it is going to stop, but I can tell you that as we keep adding traits, cottonseed is going to get more expensive."

When It Wanders
Refuse To Be A Prisoner
Simple Words
Try not to be easily fooled by empty promises. Some people have a tendency to say wonderful things and insist they will give you the world. Remember that these are just simple words. They might as well be telling you Dumbledore is rising from the backyard. Pay attention to his/her actions first and foremost. I believe that desperation, loneliness, sadness, and anger makes people do things that they don't necessarily mean or even want when they return to their "normal" state of mind. Magic is wonderful, but remember magic includes illusions.

This section discusses how to install Windows CGI Programs. The following topics are included in this section:
Shell CGI is a server configuration that lets you run CGI applications using the file associations set in Windows.
For example, if the server gets a request for a shell CGI file called hello.pl, the server uses the Windows file associations to run the file using the program associated with the .pl extension. If the .pl extension is associated with the program C:\bin\perl.exe, the server attempts to execute the hello.pl file as follows:
c:\bin\perl.exe hello.pl
The easiest way to configure shell CGI is to create a directory in your server's document root that contains only shell CGI files. However, you can also configure the server to associate specific file extensions with shell CGI by editing MIME types from the Sun Java System Web Server. For more information on using the CGI, see Chapter 3, Using Common Gateway Interface, in Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 Update 4 Developer's Guide
To create a directory for your shell CGI files, perform the following steps.
Create the shell directory on your computer. This directory does not have to be a subdirectory of your document root directory.
From the Home page, select the virtual server and then go to the Edit Virtual Server>Content Handling>CGI (sub tab).
In the CGI directories table, click New.
A new window appears.
In the URL Prefix field, enter the URL prefix you want to associate with your shell CGI directory.
For example, suppose you store all shell CGI files in a directory called C:\docs\programs\cgi\shell-cgi, but you want users to see the directory as http://www.yourserver.com/shell/. In this case, you would type shell as the URL prefix.
In the Directory field, enter the absolute path to the directory you created.
The server must have read and execute permissions to this directory. For Windows, the user account the server runs as (for example, LocalSystem) must have rights to read and execute programs in the shell CGI directory.
Select the CGI or Shell CGI option.
Make sure that any files in the shell CGI directory also have file associations set in Windows. The server returns an error if it attempts to run a file that has no file-extension association.
Click OK.
You can use the Sun Java System Web Server MIME Types window to associate a file extension with the shell CGI feature. This process is different from creating an association in Windows. To associate a file extension with the shell CGI feature in the server for example, you can create an association for files with the .pl extension. When the server gets a request for a file with that extension, the server knows to treat the file as a shell CGI file by calling the executable associated in Windows with that file extension.
To specify a file extension for Windows CGI files, perform the following steps.
Create the shell directory on your computer. This directory does not have to be a subdirectory of your document root directory.
Go to Common Tasks > Configurations (Select configuration) > General >Mime Types (sub tab)
Click the New button to create a mime type.
A new window appears.
Add a new mime type with the following settings:
Mime Header: Select the mime header from the following Content-type, Content-encoding, Content-language
MIME Value: magnus-internal/wincgi.
File Suffix: Enter the file suffixes that you want the server to associate with shell CGI. If you activated CGI, WinCGI, and shell CGI file types, you must specify a different suffix for each type of CGI. For example, you cannot use the suffix .exe for both a CGI program and a shell CGI program. If you need to, you can edit the other MIME type fields on the page so that the suffixes are unique
Click OK.

Go Viking: Fall 2013
A Message From Matt Anderson, Augustana Student Association President
Fall is a beautiful time of year. At Augustana, the fall season brings with it many reasons to be thankful.
Our campus comes to life with the addition of a new freshmen class and the return of our upperclassmen, primed and ready to kick off a new year as Augustana Vikings. Across campus, professors and students can be found engaging in conversation — the essence of the community at Augustana. The energy and excitement surrounding the start of the year is palpable.
That energy resonates throughout the year, as students are continually exposed to the endless opportunities Augustana has to offer. The annual Boe Forum on Public Affairs brings in world class speakers such as Jared Cohen, Director of Google Ideas. Each spring, Augustana and its sister schools host the Nobel Peace Prize Forum which features Peace Prize Laureates and other peace activists from across the globe. Augustana's 97 student organizations, each formed and managed by students, sponsor hundreds of events throughout the year. The Union Board of Governors, Augustana's premier programming group, sponsors nearly one hundred events each year. When combined with Recreational Services and Residence Life programs, every weekend is packed full of college-sponsored activities. Our students stay on campus because Augustana invests in meaningful and invigorating programs that students love to attend.
The arts are alive at Augustana. Take a stroll through the Humanities Center any night of the week and your ears will fill with sounds from one of our wind, choral or string ensembles. Our ensembles are composed of students from all majors and disciplines, who combine to create a rich and diverse experience. Augustana's theatre produces numerous productions, which involve actors, musicians, designers and technicians. The beautiful Center for Visual Arts houses studios for printmaking, sculpture, painting, ceramics, drawing and graphic design, and includes a gallery for professional and student exhibitions. Augustana's arts are cherished not only on campus, but also in the greater Sioux Falls community, providing students the unique opportunity to gain exposure to employers and graduate schools.
As I begin my fourth and final year at Augustana, I frequently find myself pausing to reflect on my time spent on this great campus.
I could have never anticipated the impact the past three years at Augustana would have on my life. From the beginning of my freshman year in Bergsaker Hall, Augustana has ignited in me a passion for learning. By far the most important lesson I have learned is that knowledge is not measured by the number of right answers one has. Rather, it comes from the ability to ask difficult questions — the kinds of questions that have ultimately strengthened my faith, friendships, and my outlook on life. Lessons like this will extend far beyond my four years here.
I have forever been changed by the friendships I have made on this campus, not only with fellow students but with professors and administrators. It is hard to walk across campus without running into at least a few people who are excited and ready to strike up a conversation. Professors, such as Dr. David O'Hara (Philosophy), always have the office door open (and in Dr. O'Hara's case, the water hot, inviting students to come share a cup of tea) for candid conversations. Dr. Jim Bies, Dean of Students, can frequently be found sharing a table with students in the Ordal Dining Room. President Rob Oliver attends nearly every performing and visual arts, chapel, and athletic event. Students and faculty alike are invested in and passionate about Augustana.
Some would describe this as the "Augie Advantage." Others would tell you it is just another example of the community at Augustana. No matter what you want to call it, this is exactly why I fell in love with Augustana — and it is precisely why I am proud to say that I chose to Go Viking.
All the best,
Matt Anderson

When Ray Allen tied game six of the NBA Finals with five seconds remaining, the referees nearly caused what may have become the biggest controversy in the history of the NBA.
When the refs decided to review what was clearly a three-pointer, the Spurs were out of timeouts.
Not only did the refs give the Spurs a free timeout to set up a championship-winning play, they also may have inadvertently allowed Tim Duncan to re-enter the game illegally.
With the Spurs trying to prevent a three-point basket, Gregg Popovich removed Duncan from the game. However, during the subsequent review, Duncan went back into the game even though the game should not have been stopped and NBA rules do not allow substitutions when play is stopped for "unusual circumstances."
Duncan should have never been permitted to re-enter the game.
Imagine what would have happened if Duncan would have made a basket at the buzzer to win the championship?
The NBA takes a lot of heat for their officiating. But if a championship had been decided by a referee's mistake, it would have been a black eye that would have been hard to recover from.

Who is John O'Neill?; CNN's Blitzer failed to probe partisan ties of Kerry critic
Research ››› ››› NICOLE CASTA
The May 4 Wall Street Journal editorial page featured an op-ed by John O'Neill about Senator John Kerry under the headline "Unfit to Serve." O'Neill is identified by the paper as having "served in Coastal Division 11 in 1969-1970, winning two Bronze Stars and additional decorations for his service in Vietnam." As Joe Conason wrote in Salon.com on May 4, O'Neill has long-standing ties to the GOP establishment, and O'Neill's own p.r. adviser has described O'Neill as sounding like "a crazed extremist."
O'Neill is one of several Vietnam veterans who have criticized Kerry and called into question the decorations he received for his service combat. O'Neill is associated with the newly formed group "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth," which held a press conference on May 4 that was promoted by the Media Research Center's Cybercast News Service and highlighted by The Drudge Report on May 3. According to Cybercast News, "Hundreds of former commanders and military colleagues of presumptive Democratic nominee John Kerry are set to declare in a signed letter that he is 'unfit to be commander-in-chief.'"
The Heritage Foundation's website Townhall.com became a vehicle for bringing O'Neill back to the current media spotlight. On April 2, Townhall.com published a syndicated column by Mona Charen -- and on April 8, David Horowitz's FrontPage Magazine published a timeline by Winter Solider.com -- both making brief mention of a 1971 debate between Kerry and O'Neill on The Dick Cavett Show in which O'Neill accused Kerry of lying about the activities and conduct of American military forces in Vietnam.
On April 20, O'Neill made his cable debut on CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports. During the interview, O'Neill said that John Kerry told "damaging lies" about war crimes in Vietnam. He said, "We know the truth and we know that [John Kerry] is unfit to be the commander in chief." O'Neill continued, "I think you'll find people are very, very angry at John Kerry. They remember his career in Vietnam as a short, controversial one. And they believe only Hollywood could turn this guy into a war hero. I saw some war heroes, Wolf. John Kerry is not a war hero. He couldn't tie the shoes of some of the people in Coastal Division 11."
Though Blitzer acknowledged that questions were likely to be raised about whether O'Neill was speaking out against Kerry for political reasons, Blitzer conceded that he had not looked into O'Neill's partisan affiliations. "Maybe you're a Republican -- I have no idea -- or the Bush people are encouraging you," Blitzer said.
Houston lawyer John O'Neill is a Republican -- as the Houston Chronicle noted the day after O'Neill's interview with Blitzer. According to the paper, O'Neill voted in the 1998 Republican state primary. But O'Neill's ties to the Republican Party extend far beyond party affiliation. During the CNN interview, Blitzer reported that former President Richard Nixon had urged O'Neill to publicly counter Kerry on The Dick Cavett Show, but there is more to the story. O'Neill was a creation of the Nixon administration, as Joe Klein detailed in the January 5 issue of The New Yorker. Former Nixon special counsel Chuck Colson told Klein that Kerry was an "articulate" and "credible leader" of those veterans calling for an end to the Vietnam War and therefore "an immediate target of the Nixon Administration." As such, the Nixon administration found it necessary to "create a counterfoil" to Kerry. Colson recounted, "We found a vet named John O'Neill and formed a group called Vietnam Veterans for a Just Peace. We had O'Neill meet the President, and we did everything we could do to boost his group." Articles from the April 21 Houston Chronicle and the June 17, 2003, Boston Globe confirm close ties between O'Neill and the Nixon administration.
Beyond his role in the Nixon administration's strategy to undermine Kerry in the 1970s, O'Neill is also connected to Supreme Court Justice William Rehnquist (a Nixon appointee) and to former President George H.W. Bush, according to Houston Chronicle articles from March 31 and April 21. In the late 1970s, O'Neill clerked for Rehnquist; in 1990, according to an October 7, 1991, report by Texas Lawyer, the former President Bush considered O'Neill for a federal judgeship vacancy.
Media Matters for America will be monitoring media coverage of today's "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" activities and will issue an updated report.
