SIPC: 2001 SET RECORD FOR NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS PAID, AMOUNT OF ADVANCES 2001 Ushered in Largest Brokerage Bankruptcy Case Ever
WASHINGTON, D.C. - March 13, 2002 - The Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), which maintains a special reserve fund authorized by Congress to help investors at failed brokerage firms, made net advances totaling an estimated $112 million to approximately 179,500 investors in 2001, compared to just $23 million paid out to 1,148 investors in 2000. The payments made by SIPC to investors in 2001 were roughly twice the previous one-year record of $63 million in 1981.
The term "net advances" refers to money drawn from SIPC's reserves (in the absence of sufficient funds at the failed brokerage firms) in order to make investors whole, as is provided for under the non-profit's rules.
Another sign that 2001 was a busy year for SIPC: The non-profit organization opened 12 new brokerage firm liquidation proceedings, compared to just five in the year 2000. The 2001 total included MJK Clearing Inc., of Minneapolis, MN, the largest liquidation case in SIPC's history. To find a higher one-year level of brokerage liquidations, SIPC had to go back to 1992, when 13 proceedings were initiated.
SIPC President Michael Don said: "Last year turned out to be an excellent example of what we mean when we say that SIPC is the investor's first line of defense when a brokerage firm fails. It also was the case in 2001 that SIPC made major strides to make sure that we are doing everything we can to inform investors about the extent and limits of the protections that we provide under federal law."
The Spectrum case follows closely on the heels of a record-setting case handled by SIPC. On October 2, 2001, SIPC announced a record payment of $177 million to restore stocks and cash to 175,000 investors due to a default by MJK Clearing, Inc. MJK Clearing, Inc., is the parent company of Miller Johnson Steichen Kinnard, Inc., a full-service brokerage firm headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota with 400 investment executives in eight states.
In 2001, SIPC handled the liquidation of two large regional brokerage firms. In the case of Donahue Securities of Cincinnati, Ohio, SIPC mailed out 26,400 claim notices to customers and transferred 5,500 accounts to another broker/dealer. In its largest case ever, SIPC oversaw the transfer of customer accounts at MJK Clearing Inc. in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The congressionally mandated organization mailed out 211,800 claim notices to MJK customers and transferred 173,500 accounts to another broker/dealer within seven days of the filing date. SIPC also advanced $177 million to the trustee in the MJK case in order to free up customer assets that were in the hands of third parties.
Other major developments during 2001 included:
* SIPC completely overhauled its Web site to make it easier for investors to understand the organization and how to file claims. Included in the new site is the "SIPC Claim Center," which allows claims to be filled-out online. However, all original signed forms and related attachments still must be received by the designated trustee overseeing a liquidation proceeding.
* The basic brochure that SIPC provides to customers and the securities industry was completely reworked to make it easier for investors to understand. The new brochure provides plain English answers to the seven most commonly asked questions about SIPC. It also emphasizes the need for investors to document their concerns in writing as soon as they suspect that their funds are being mishandled.
* SIPC collaborated with the National Association of Investors Corp. -- the national association of more than 600 investor clubs - on a national survey identifying deficiencies in the "investment survival skills" of American investors. The survey results related to investor misunderstandings about SIPC coverage are now being used to guide SIPC investor education efforts.
* SIPC joined the Alliance for Investor Education (AIE) as a member in order to create wider investor awareness of SIPC and the extent and limits of the protections that it provides. The involvement in AIE also provides SIPC with the means by which to network with other organizations and experts that are devoted to improved investor education.
For 2002, SIPC already is working on a national radio and television public service announcement (PSA) campaign. The organization also will prepare a simplified, plain-English "How to File a Claim" booklet to help investors at bankrupt brokerage firms.
From its creation by Congress in 1970 through December 2001, SIPC advanced $513 million in order to make possible the recovery of $13.9 billion in assets for an estimated 622,000 investors. SIPC estimates that more than 99 percent of eligible investors have been made whole in the failed brokerage firm cases that it has handled to date.
SIPC is an important part of the overall system of investor protection in the United States. While a number of federal, self-regulatory and state securities agencies deal with cases of investment fraud, SIPC's focus is both different and narrow: Restoring funds to investors with assets in the hands of bankrupt and otherwise financially troubled brokerage firms. The Securities Investor Protection Corporation was not chartered by Congress to combat fraud.
SIPC either acts as trustee or works with an independent court-appointed trustee in a fraud case to recover funds. The statute that created SIPC rules provides that customers of a failed brokerage firm receive all non-negotiable securities that are already registered in their names or in the process of being registered. At the same time, funds from the SIPC reserve are available to satisfy the remaining claims of each customer up to a maximum of $500,000. This figure includes a maximum of $100,000 on claims for cash.
Recovered funds are used to pay investors whose claims exceed SIPC's protection limit of $500,000. SIPC often draws down its reserve to aid investors. Recovered funds also are used to replenish SIPC's reserve in the event that the reserve is tapped in the early stages of a liquidation proceeding.

MaterialNews 2012/03/12Bionic: Scientists develop new way to shape thin gel sheets
Inspired by nature's ability to shape a petal, and building on simple techniques used in photolithography and printing, researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have developed a new tool for manufacturing three-dimensional shapes easily and cheaply, to aid advances in biomedicine, robotics and tunable micro-optics.
Ryan Hayward, Christian Santangelo and colleagues describe their new method of halftone gel lithography for photo-patterning polymer gel sheets in the current issue of Science. They say the technique, among other applications, may someday help biomedical researchers to direct cells cultured in a laboratory to grow into the correct shape to form a blood vessel or a particular organ.
"We wanted to develop a strategy that would allow us to pattern growth with some of the same flexibility that nature does," Hayward explains. Many plants create curves, tubes and other shapes by varying growth in adjacent areas. While some leaf or petal cells expand, other nearby cells do not, and this contrast causes buckling into a variety of shapes, including cones or curly edges. A lily petal's curve, for example, arises from patterned areas of elongation that define a specific three-dimensional shape. Building on this concept, Hayward and colleagues developed a method for exposing ultraviolet-sensitive thin polymer sheets to patterns of light. The amount of light absorbed at each position on the sheet programs the amount that this region will expand when placed in contact with water, thus mimicking nature's ability to direct certain cells to grow while suppressing the growth of others. The technique involves spreading a 10-micrometer-thick layer (about 5 times thinner than a human hair) of polymer onto a substrate before exposure. Areas of the gel exposed to light become crosslinked, restricting their ability to expand, while nearby unexposed areas will swell like a sponge as they absorb water. As in nature, this patterned growth causes the gel to buckle into the desired shape. Unlike in nature, however, these materials can be repeatedly flattened and re-shaped by drying out and rehydrating the sheet. To date, the UMass Amherst researchers have made a variety of simple shapes including spheres, saddles and cones, as well as more complex shapes such as minimal surfaces. Creating the latter represents a fundamental challenge that demonstrates basic principles of the method, Hayward says. He adds, "Analogies to photography and printing are helpful here." When photographic film is exposed to patterns of light, a chemical pattern is encoded within the film. Later, the film is developed using several solvents that etch the exposed and unexposed regions differently to provide the image we see on the photographic negative. A very similar process is used by UMass Amherst researchers to pattern growth in gel sheets. Santangelo and Hayward also borrowed an idea from the printing industry that allows them to make complicated patterns in a very simple way. In photolithography, just as in printing, it is expensive to print a picture using different color shades because each shade requires a different ink. Thus, most high-volume printing relies on "halftoning," in which only a few ink colors are used to print varied-sized dots. Smaller dots take up less space and allow more white light to reflect from the paper, so they appear as a lighter color shade than larger dots. An important discovery by the UMass Amherst team is that this concept applies equally well to patterning the growth of their gel sheets. Rather than trying to make smooth patterns with many different levels of growth, they were able to simply print dots of highly restricted growth and vary the dot size to program a patterned shape. "We're discovering new ways to plan or pattern growth in a soft polymer gel that's spread on a substrate to get any shape you want," Santangelo says. "By directly transferring the image onto the soft gel with half-tones of light, we direct its growth." He adds, "We aren't sure yet how many shapes we can make this way, but for now it's exciting to explore and we're focused on understanding the process better. A model system like this helps us to watch how it unfolds. For biomedicine or bioengineering, one of the questions has been how to create tissues that could help to grow you a new blood vessel or a new organ. We now know a little more about how to go from a flat sheet of cells to a complex organism." Source: University of Massachusetts at Amherst – 08.03.2012. Investigated and edited by:Dr.-Ing.

Researchers from North Carolina State University have developed a simple way to convert two-dimensional patterns into three-dimensional (3-D) objects using only light.
"This is a novel application of existing materials, and has potential for rapid, high-volume manufacturing processes or packaging applications," says Dr. Michael Dickey, an assistant professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering at NC State and co-author of a paper describing the research.
The process is remarkably simple. Researchers take a pre-stressed plastic sheet and run it through a conventional inkjet printer to print bold black lines on the material. The material is then cut into... more

Jun 2012To Curate or Not Curate: That is Not the Question
Posted by Cath Pope / in Blog, Content Strategy /
The real question is why are so many old school media outlets hung up about it?
The New York Times isn't going anywhere (well, the online edition, anyhow). People rely on credible news analysis and confirmation of fact by the Establishment. That's important. And media outlets like The New York Times, The Gaurdian and Der Spiegel are in the business of confirming fact. Once it's confirmed, the blogosphere is in the business of commenting on it. And that's not bad – that's good. Journalists who worked hard at college to get a by-line at the New York Times aren't going anywhere. For the rest of the journalism graduates, there's the DIY by-line via WordPress. And plenty of those by-lines are well worth reading (but that's a different argument).
The beef over content curation strikes me as strange. I live in Australia. I'm flat out spending time on our local Media Establishment sites like The Age to remember to visit the Times or The Guardian. I rely on curators to deliver me the best news and commentary of the day. And that includes my friends via my Facebook newsfeed and Twitter handle, and professional colleagues via my LinkedIn newsfeed. Then there's Zite and my favourite news app of all time, Pulse News. There are also websites that produce original and curated content – Daily Beast is a great example of getting the mix right. Yes, when I'm on Pulse, I'm viewing the introduction of the content in Pulse's browser – which is ad free – but to read the article, I think click-thru to the source, in all its original glory. And if it's a good story, the original source will get the benefit of hundreds of curators pointing readers in their direction.
Like I have the Times…
Of course, just like good and bad people and good and bad SEO strategies, there is good and bad curation practice. Stealing is not good. Not identifying the source is not good. Pretending it is your own personal wisdom when it's not, is not good. What is good, is creating your own headline and description pointing to why reading the article in full might be a good idea. For time-poor people dealing with numerous digital interruptions on top of whatever else life is throwing at them, this is a good thing. A good and necessary thing.
Establishment news organisations that get cranky about curation should instead be thankful. I don't live in New York City where bus shelters remind me to read 'all the news that's fit to print' Or as The New York Times says these days: 'We Don't Just Cover it. We are It'. I need to be reminded to click through to an article. If there's ten articles on Syria as news story of the day, which one should I read? I rely on recommendations, and in turn, I have my own suggestions on what to read that I enjoy sharing.
Who Gets the Click-Thru?
Everyone wants traffic. Traffic is money. And the New York Times knows this as much as the next guy. So why is it a big deal when a curator recommends I read an article published on www.nytimes.com , by telling me why in 25 words or less, why this would be a great read, then providing the click-thru to the article on its original site (let's assume for a moment this exists in a world without pay walls. Content protected by pay walls generally doesn't get curated). This is a good thing, right?
The issue of content curation is a non –argument. We've been doing it for years anyway, and now there are experts legitimising it for us. I trust my tech curator to bring me the freshest, most important and relevant news and opinion of the day, just like I do with my news curators and art curators.
It makes my digital life a lot easier, and my brain a lot better fed, and the Establishment gets to stay relevant: WIN.

In the days after Sept. 11, Inland Muslims braced for the worst. Some mosques canceled events. A few people reported threats or vandalism.
But 10 years later, Inland Muslims say interest in Islam has increased since the terrorist attacks. Heightened attention toward Islam led more Americans to educate themselves about the religion. In many cases, fear and stereotypes were replaced with knowledge.
"People are more friendly," said Dr.Mohammad Hossain, imam of the Islamic Center of Redlands and a 35-year resident of the city. "They ask me more questions about Islam and understand Islam a lot better. Ten years ago, people didn't know anything about Islam."
Hossain said that, after 9/11, the number of invitations to speak about Islam at churches, synagogues and community forums increased sharply.
A national Pew Research Center study released Aug. 30 found that although just over half of American Muslims say life for Muslims became more difficult after 9/11, only 16 percent report that the general public is unfriendly toward Muslim Americans.
Ziad Jalanbo, 56, recalled how after 9/11, his Corona neighbors reached out to his family. They told them how much they liked having them in the neighborhood. Some apologized for the anti-Muslim acts and slurs of others.
"Our neighbors stood by us," Jalanbo said. "They showed appreciation, they showed understanding, and most of all they showed solidarity. I feel very happy in the community where we live."Yet 9/11 seemed to increase the suspicion some Americans have of Muslims, he said.
"The peace we had, the safety we felt in the States, were shattered by the horrible incident," Jalanbo said. "We as American Muslims have to continuously say, 'Look, that is not us. Not one of those predators was American. They had a very strange view of Islam. None of us subscribe to that in any form. These people have hijacked our religion. This isn't the Islam we teach our children about, the Islam of peace, love and understanding.' "
Jalanbo's family embodies the American Muslim community as a whole. More than 60 percent of Muslims are immigrants, the Pew study found.
Jalanbo, his wife Abir and their two older children were born in Syria. They came to Southern California in 1984. Their other three children are U.S.-born. All are immersed in U.S. culture.
Tarik Jalanbo, 29, is a big fan of basketball and football and sings in a band. Farrah, 14, and Hanna, 16, said they love Harry Potter and the "Twilight" movies.All have a mix of Muslim and non-Muslim friends. The Pew survey found that more than 90 percent of U.S. Muslims have non-Muslim friends.
Hanna said interacting every day with other students at school, and simply being just another Southern California teenager, counters misconceptions and negative stereotypes.
There have been a few rare instances of harassment. Layla Jalanbo, 20, recalled how she and her older sister were once harassed in a Wal-Mart parking lot by a man who "told us to go back to our country" -- even though both were born in the United States.
Yet incidents like that stick out because they're so rare, she said.
Protests against the building of a new mosque in Temecula garnered national attention. But Mahmoud Harmoush, the imam of the mosque, which is now housed in a temporary site, said the 25 to 30 people who showed up at protests don't represent the city as a whole. More people demonstrated in support of the mosque than against it.
Even so, Harmoush knows Muslims who are convinced they didn't get a job or an apartment because of their faith. The number of anti-Muslim websites and groups has ballooned since 9/11, he said.
Hossain's mosque was vandalized in 2004, and someone poured alcohol onto a female member. But that was the last time there has been trouble. Hossain said Muslims are accepted and welcomed in Redlands.
"We're a part of the community," he said.

Ticket #9435 (closed bug: cantfix)
javascript error while reloading during animation
Reported by: | JorisDebonnet | Owned by: | JorisDebonnet |
Priority: | low | Milestone: | 1.next |
Component: | effects | Version: | git |
Keywords: | Cc: | ||
Blocking: | Blocked by: |
It's really nothing serious, but something very slightly goes wrong, so I thought I'd just report it.
When you reload a page that is currently doing an animation, you get a javascript error. Probably because jQuery is still trying to reference something for the animation that has disappeared in the meanwhile.
Since the 'reloaded' page works as it should, it's certainly not a big thing. Only that I get red messages in some addons that are tracking errors.
It may be easy to fix though, although I'm not sure whether it would cause any performance issues (if an additional check is required on every step).
The 'error' happens on current line 8400, where it merely says:

I've verified this, but it looks like a bug in Firefox to me. Seems like FF must not be stopping the timer. It's beyond our abilities to control I would think. Can you report it to Mozilla?

Nine people were arrested and two recruitment agencies had their licences suspended in a major operation against exploitation of migrant workers in Cambridgeshire.
About 300 police and officers from other agencies were involved in the raids, which targeted eight properties in March, Wisbech and King's Lynn at about 4am today.
Two March-based recruitment agencies, Roberto Mac Ltd, and Slender Contracting Ltd, had their licences suspended this morning with immediate effect.
A police spokesman said licence suspensions were only issued by the Gangmasters Licensing Authority (GLA) when there was "serious risk of ongoing exploitation".
The arrested people were taken to March police station.
Chief Insp Mike Winters, the commander for Fenland, said the inquiry into exploitation of migrant workers from Lithuania and Latvia had been running for four months.
He said: "We are committed to working with the GLA and other partner agencies to tackle the exploitation of workers in the Fenland area and we are targeting those who gain from others' suffering.
"Victims are promised a better life in the UK with well-paid work but often end up in overcrowded accommodation and immediately placed in debt to a gangmaster who controls their affairs.
"They are paid wages well below the legal minimum for extremely long hours and their pay is often taken to service debt on their accommodation.
"Exploitation also has significant knock-on effects, particularly when work dries up, including street drinking, homelessness, anti-social behaviour and shoplifting.
"Victims are often too frightened to come forward and reluctant to seek help from authorities. However, I would urge anyone who feels they are being exploited or has any concerns about individual workers to contact police."
GLA chief executive Paul Broadbent said: "The operation was the culmination of months of collaborative investigative work by both the GLA and the police into the suspected exploitation of dozens of workers.
"By being able to draw on the Cambridgeshire force's expertise and resources and the skills and knowledge of the other partner agencies involved, we have been able to disrupt what we suspect to be a sophisticated criminal operation."
Fenland District Council, the National Crime Agency, the Home Office and the Vehicle and Operator Services Agency were also involved in the operation.

As the new school year approaches, parents have to decide what their children will eat for lunch. Should they help the kids brown bag it or remember to take their lunch money? While this might not seem to be a major issue, it is - because the importance of school lunch rises with the rates of childhood obesity, say University of Alabama at Birmingham experts.
The number of obese children and teens in the United States has risen during the past two decades, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). As of 2010, about 17 percent of kids ages 2-19 were considered obese, meaning they have a body-mass index at or above the 95th percentile for children of the same age and sex. The CDC says that makes them susceptible to heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, asthma, sleep apnea and social discrimination.
"For many, childhood obesity extends into adulthood where these disorders have more impact on their health, so starting early is the key to prevention," says Stephenie Wallace, M.D., UAB assistant professor of pediatrics and medical director for the Children's Clinic for Weight Management at Children's Hospital (CCWM).
The CCWM is an interdisciplinary clinic for children whose efforts to work with their physicians on weight loss have not been successful; there, Wallace treats children who are at risk for heart problems caused by high cholesterol levels and hypertension.
"School meals can be a big part of the nutrition many children receive during the week," Wallace says. "Making both school breakfast and lunch meals healthier is one component to preventing obesity, heart disease and diabetes in children."
So what should kids be eating?
Lindsey Lee, M.A.Ed., R.D., L.D., clinical dietitian with EatRight by UAB Weight Management Services, says children need the nutrients from all food sources, including lean protein, monounsaturated fats, complex carbohydrates from whole grains, low-fat dairy, fruit and vegetables.
Lee says a healthy brown-bag lunch could have the following:
•Fresh, canned or frozen fruits and vegetables - baby-cut carrots, celery sticks, sliced apples, grapes and/or bananas. Canned fruits should be in their own juices, and vegetables should be low sodium.•Dairy sources - reduced-fat string cheese, cottage cheese, low-fat milk or yogurt. •Whole grains - 100 percent whole-wheat bread or pasta. •Lean protein - boneless, skinless turkey and chicken breast, beans, legumes.•Healthy fats - avocado, peanut butter, almonds and other nuts.
If you want to go classic — sandwich, chips and a drink — Lee says to watch the sodium content of the deli meat, skip the high-fat condiments like mayonnaise and use low-fat choices like mustard.

Eternal Light Peace Memorial (Gettysburg)
Battlefield: Gettysburg National Military Park, Pennsylvania
Location: N. Confederate Ave, On Oak Hill
Map Coordinates: +39° 50' 54.60", -77° 14' 36.60"
Contents |
Monument Text
- "Eternal Light Peace Memorial. Dedicated by President Franklin D. Roosevelt during the observance of the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, July 3, 1938"
- "An enduring light to guide us in unity and fellowship."
- "With firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right. - Lincoln"
Monument Details
Artists: Cret, Paul Philippe, architect; Lawrie, Lee Oskar, sculptor; George A. Fuller Company, contractor
Dedicated: July 3rd, 1938
Dimensions: Overall: 40 x 42 x 85 ft.; Shaft: H. 40 ft.; Relief: H. 8 ft.; Platform: L. 85 ft. x W. 42 ft.
Description: A tall square shaft rising from the center of a stone platform is topped by a bronze urn for an eternal flame. On the south face of the shaft is a relief symbolizing peace and good will as it now exists between the north and south of the nation. It features two embracing female figures holding a wreath while an eagle stands at their feet.
Cost: $60,000.00 (July 1938)
Monument Notes
The memorial was dedicated by President Franklin Roosevelt on July 3rd, 1938, the 75th anniversary of the battle. One Union and one Confederate veteran unveiled the 47 1/2 foot tall shaft. Roosevelt compared the task of the men of the 1860's with the men of his day: "All of them we honor, not asking under which Flag they fought then - thankful that they stand together under one Flag now." In less than five years the sons and grandsons of these veterans would be standing together in unimaginably terrible battles against enemies around the world.
Over 250,000 people attended the dedication, with an estimated 100,000 more unable to make it due to overcrowded highways. Over 1,800 Civil War veterans attended what was to be the last reunion, all of them at least in their nineties. They lived in a luxurious tent camp complete with electricity and boardwalks set up in the fields north of Gettysburg College, attended by a host of Boy Scouts.
The memorial's $60,000 cost was provided by donations from state both north and south. Its base is made of Maine granite, while the shaft is of a lighter colored Alabama limestone. The gas-lit eternal flame burned until 1979 when it was replaced by electricity, but it was restored in 1988. The monument was the inspiration for the eternal flame on President Kennedy's grave at Arlington National Cemetery.

Mobile marketing measurement is important, but don't panic
In the third of our three-part series, Paul Cushman, Director of Mobile Sales Strategy at Yahoo!, outlines the importance of measurement in any mobile strategy and offers a simple formula for doing it right. For Part I, click here. For Part II, click here.
I'm shocked by the number of clients who start a mobile campaign with no idea how they are going to measure success. I'm not talking necessarily about goals, as this is a new channel to many brands and setting benchmarks is a legitimate and relevant approach at the start.
But make sure you are measuring and that you talk to your mobile advertising vendors about this. There are good in-house and third-party solutions out there that can improve the data a campaign generates.
Why is this important? Say the client comes in and says "I want an iPhone app!" (Let's ignore the fact that this is akin to walking into the agency and saying "I want to do radio ads" without first asking whether or not you should even be doing radio).

Press Review of Thursday, 12 April 2007
Source: Graphic
Yesterday marked another milestone in the history of education in the country. The new educational reform which seeks to equip our youth well enough to meet the challenges of the 21st Century was launched by no less a personality than the President of the Republic.
Clearly, our desire and aspiration to reach a middle-income status make it imperative that the youth are well equipped to enable them to contribute their quota towards national development.
Consequently, they must be prepared to be on top of Science, Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Besides, premium must be placed on training in technical, vocational and agricultural disciplines.
This means basic education must provide a solid foundation on which the superstructure will be built. No wonder the reform seeks to expose children to literacy and numeracy, for instance, from the kindergarten level.
Recent records show that the country's educational system has produced many school leavers who have not been adequately prepared for the world of work. That was not the case in the good old days when even the Middle School Leaving Certificate meant much.
We have had Dr Kwame Nkrumah's Accelerated Development Plan of Education, which sought to expand rapidly recruitment into basic and secondary schools; the Prof. Alex Kwapong Education Review Committee, which brought about continuation schools in 1966, the Professor Dzobo Review Committee of 1974, which introduced the comprehensive junior secondary school (JSS) concept, and the latest reform which began in 1987.
In spite of all these, to date the country has not found answers to the problem of churning out school leavers who do not have the competencies in literacy and numeracy to enable them to continue their education or embark on continuous learning for self-improvement.
Neither do many of the school leavers have the technical skills nor craftsmanship to prepare them for the world of work.
The surest way of checking the increasing number of unemployable school leavers is to make the Free Compulsorily Universal Basic Education (FCUBE) work and ensure that the youth are given quality education to enable them to solve problems.
Indeed, quality education has been the main springboard on which the development of many countries has depended.
The new educational reform recognises the roles of technical institutions and the polytechnics in the scheme of things. We expect that we will go all out to ensure that they are supported to play those roles effectively.
Significantly, unlike the JSS of the previous reform, the junior high school (JHS) is not envisaged as a terminal programme for the majority of pupils (now about 60 per cent). It is rather an entry point for senior high school (SHS) in different categories.
Those who cannot move on the academic ladder could take advantage of well-structured apprenticeships to adequately prepare themselves for the world of work.
Additionally, the missing link between technical education and industry is provided under the reform so that industry and schools can collaborate to meet the demands and challenges.
Furthermore, the reform sees the need to motivate teachers, the most critical factor in the process. Teachers' competencies will be sharpened to enable them to deliver.
The Anamuah Committee which carried out the educational reform did a good job, while the National Educational Reform Implementation Committee (NERIC) has also done its job and we commend them for their efforts.
We anticipate that there would be a series of public education programmes to clear whatever questions may agitate the minds of the people about the reform and satisfactory answers provided.
Above all, it is important that all stakeholders — policy makers, parents, teachers, the private sector, religious groups — put their weight behind the reform, which is designed to change the fortunes of the country.
It is important that we own it and ensure that it succeeds.

Editorial Reviews - Amazon
Winner of the Booker Prize Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Award for Fiction
Schindler's List is a remarkable work of fiction based on the true story of German industrialist and war profiteer, Oskar Schindler, who, confronted with the horror of the extermination camps, gambled his life and fortune to rescue 1,300 Jews from the gas chambers.
Working with the actual testimony of Schindler's Jews, Thomas Keneally artfully depicts the courage and shrewdness of an unlikely savior, a man who is a flawed mixture of hedonism and decency and who, in the presence of unutterable evil, transcends the limits of his own humanity.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine was officially announced on 15 July 2008 together with "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen". It was released worldwide on 1 May 2009 to coincide with the release of the film under the genre of action-adventure with an ESRB rating of M for Mature, for the Xbox 360 platform version. Incorporating Unreal Engine 3 technology, X-Men Origins: Wolverine was published by Activision, distributed by Activision Blizzard and developed by Raven Software for the Xbox 360. The 2009 action-adventure game is loosely based on the film of the same name, in which players take control of James "Logan" Howlett (codenamed Wolverine) and for the first time in a video game, discover the character's origins. It is said that X-Men Origins: Wolverine takes influences from other action-adventure games such as God of War and Devil May Cry, with the Uncaged version of the game featuring a large amount of blood and gore. In terms of the storyline, it comprises of a combination of the Wolverine backstory which is being explore in the movie of the same name as well as original story created by Raven Software. The lead developer, Dan Vondrak claims that roughly 90% of the movie storyline is featured in the game. That portion makes up only less than half of the overall video game story, while the remaining balance is exclusive to the game. However, the primary storyline is the back-story of Wolverine who uncovers his origins from his birth in the 19th century, his military service and eventual recruitment to Col. William Stryker's Weapon X program, and eventually his confrontation with Weapon XI. The game is set in locations including Africa which is implied to be Wakanda, due to Stryker's interest in meteorite desposits in the regions, Alkali Lake, Project Wideawake and New Orleans.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine is said to give players new insight into how much damage indestructible, razor-sharp claws can do to a human body. It revels in gore, with decapitations, eviscerations, and mutilations drenching the screen in blood. However, it may also be derivative, a cakewalk and at time buggy. Fortunately, the sheer visceral impact of the extreme violence is enough to cover that up. The decent gameplay in X-Men Origins: Wolverine helps to back up the violence in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It is said that the game's environment, especially its indoor ones are plain-looking, featuring various corridors and laboratories which lack real distinctiveness. However, the characters in X-Men Origins: Wolverine fair a bit better, sporting good animations although lacking a little in the detail and sharpness departments.
"Should any of the criticism I've launched keep you from playing X-Men Origins: Wolverine — Uncaged Edition? No, this is an awesome guilty pleasure. Usually, I'll sit down to review a repetitive game that's filled with the same attacks and just tear it apart because the repetition sucks the fun out of the experience. X-Men Origins has repetition in spades, but it's the kind of repetition Wolverine/action game fans are going to love; I mean, can you get sick of literally slicing someone in two and watching the blood explode across the screen? Can you get sick of hoisting a bad guy in the air and savagely stabbing him in the gut over and over again? Can you get sick of watching Wolverine get beaten down to his adamantium skeleton only to sit there and marvel as his muscle and skin grown back in real time? I can't.
The story is convoluted, the bosses are boring and the whole experience isn't that deep, but this game sure is fun." (IGN, 2009)

This sounds like basic overuse inflamation of your achilles tendon. Ice it and take over-the-counter anti-inflamatory pills. Try to get any swelling down quickly.
As you recover, consider mixing in trail running (or any softer surface than roads or sidewalks). Your legs will thank you.

Ashlee Simpson Packs on PDA With New Boyfriend, Vincent Piazza (PHOTOS)
So who is this new man in Ashlee's life? Vincent is best known for his role as Lucky Luciano in HBO's Boardwalk Empire. He also starred in 2007's Rocket Science and had a recurring role as Tony in Rescue Me's fourth season.
Check out this little montage of Vincent as Lucky in Empire:
Ashlee filed for divorce from Pete back in February, even though the couple have continued to hang out as a family. Apparently, they are trying to stay friendly with one another -- making son Bronx their top priority.
Back in March, sources told People that the two were not reconciling, despite their various outings together in LA.
Pete Wentz And Ashlee Simpson's Family Day
"This is not a sign that they are getting back together," the source said. "They both care about each other tremendously. They both love Bronx very much, and Ashlee has always called Pete her best friend. They are in the middle of still trying to figure this out."
So what do you think about the new couple? Sound off in the comments section below.

You should appraoch Killzone 2 multiplayer with a fresh outlook. You have to unlearn what you have come to take for granted in other FPS. Aiming is alot harder in this game, but you will get used to it fairly quickly. But even if you mastered the controls, do not expect them to give you the same precision and speed found in other FPS. The emphasis in this game is on tactical play rather than quick draw running and gunning. So you should revise your expectations, and you should find this game more satisfying than initially preceived.
Granted, this game isn't without its faults. Multiplayer is still a work in progress with refinements continuously taking place. However, in its current state, the game is very playable. This guide will help direct your efforts towards the intended style of play in Killzone 2. Hopefully, making the game more rewarding and satisfying for you.
How This Game is Played:
At the very root, Killzone 2 multiplayer is all about capturing strategic areas as quickly as possible, and holding them. I'm not refering to the C&H game objective, but rather the higher level of play that overlooks all other objectives. Controlling these areas gives you massive stategic & tactical advantage. From these areas you:
1- 'Play' the mini games of objectives.
2- Maintain control over logistical routes, and defensive lines.
3- You launch attacks & counter offensives.
The next level of play is controlling the various routes on the maps. Securing routes towards objectives, or to provide logistics, and back up. The last level of play are the actual objectives, doing the aforementioned eases the process of accomplishing these various objectives. And this is where the majority of killings and engagements will occur. Granted, the more experiened your opponents are, the more the fights will shift away from objectives, and focus around routes and important areas.

2- General MP Guidelines & Rules:
Have you asked yourself these questions:
1- Why is this game so chaotic?
2- Why is this place a g'nade fest?
3- Why does every game turn into a clusterfak?
4- Why is this game just running and gunning?
5- Where the tactics and team play?
Positioning & Purpose:
If so, have you considered that possibly you have misplaced yourself in the battlefield? Ask yourself these simple questions:
1- Am I positioned properly on the map relevant to my team and the enemies?
2- What is my purpose on the team?
3- How can I contribute most to securing the objectives?
4- Why should I restrict myself to just finding and killing the enemies?
Duties on the Battlefield:
You see, on the battlefield, killing the enemy is not the only job. For as many ways there are to kill your enemy, there are more ways to benifit your team. Remember that the biggest points in this game are centered around the objectives. And securing that objective, thus securing your team a victory, yields a 50% increase in points. That's big rewards versus a measly +1 per kill. If you are not contend or satisfied with just killing, how about doing these:
1- Have you considered providing backup to a team mate infiltrating enemy grounds?
2- Have you considered establishing a secure route for troop movements?
3- Have you considered preping up an area for troop supplies? (med kits, ammo under safety)
4- Have you considered guarding and fortifying a possible flank route used by enemies?
5- Have you considered cutting off a logistical route used by enemeies?
6- Have you considered directing your team mates towards objectives in a safe manner?
7- Have you considered destroying enemy foritifications?
As you can see, there's plenty to do for your team on the battlefield, and most of them doesn't involve throwing yourself infront of the enemies. Positioning yourself (and usefullness) is very important. There are 3 areas, or lines, where you have to identify yourself with:
1- The Front line: In direct contact with the enemy.
2- The Defensive line: Located behind the Front line. It is ring surrounding an area preventing enemies from advancing.
3- The Support line: Located behind the Defensive line. In general safety, here you provide the troopswith much needed support.
Learning to look at the map, and identifying where these lines is an essential skill for prolong survival. A game generally last 20 minutes, you're not expected to be engaging the enemy the whole time. And remember, you're carrying a gun. You can kill from quite a distance. It is even easier and much safer to kill targets when they are busy and distracted with the boys at the Front Lines.
General Advice:
To quickly sum up:
1- Killing is not your top priority, the objectives are!
2- Securing objectives will naturally get you your kills.
3- Fighting within defensives lines will get you your good Kill/Death ratio.
4- Patience, patience, patiance.
5- Location, location, location.
6- There is no "I" in team.
7- Continuously survey map for weak areas, or possible flanking routes.
8- Take the initiative, if your team lacks a special class, fill in their boots!
9- Try to read your team, understand what needs to be done.
10- Influence your team, set an example of what needs to be done.
11- Patience, patience, patiance.
12- Location, location, location.
13- Always prepare from next objective.
14- Winning team gets a 50% increase points bonus, see that your team wins, and not just you.
15- Maintain higher ground.
3- Team Structure:
Every successfull team is built around a structure and heirarchy. Your team in Killzone 2 is built around the Tactician. Every team should at least have one leading. His decisions and actions greatly effect the outcome of the battle. The Tacticians aids are the Engineers, they define the defensive lines. They add detail to the plans of the Tactician. If this back end structure isn't found in a team you've just joined, you might as well bail out. As your teams victory will squarely be down to the stupidity of your opponents, and luck.
4- Classes:
There are 3 general hierarchies in which the game's classes fall into:
1- Sheep Herder: The classes are (Tactician, Engineer) - You directly influence the placement of troops. You steer the army in the right direction. You place supplies where needed.
2- Lonewolves: The classes are ( Saboteur, Sniper, Assault) - You have a very specific purpose that must be done alone, or with little support.
3- Infantry: The classes are (Assault, Rifleman) - You are there to kill, and to capture & hold areas, and to push the enemies back.
4- Support: The classes are (Engineer, Medic) - You define, and re-inforce the defensive lines. You stay just behid the lines providing help as needed.
A highly specialized class that demands great skill to play. A sniper is the first, and last line of defense for your team. His secondary ability is a great boon to the team.
1- Spot & Mark everything.
2- Keep enemy sniper in check.
3- Kill enemies trying to arm bombs.
4- Kill enemies trying to defuse bombs.
5- Kill engineers, and if possible, their turrets.
This is the single most dangerous class in the entire game. His actions alone can greatly influence the outcome of a battle. Equiped to play both front lines, and support lines, the Tactician guides his team towards victory. Be it by spearheading the attack, or subtly influencing his teams movement. This class is an absolute essential part of any team.
1- Do not get engage enemy when not necessary.
2- Maintain spawn points relevant to current scenario.
3- Maintain absolute minimum spawn grenades needed.
4- Maintain spawn grenades first at objects, second at vital hold areas, third at choke points.
The menace with the shotgun. The engineer guards those flank point, and supply routes with deadly results, turning every corridor and tight corner into a nightmare. Re-inforcing defensive lines with turrets, and facilitating support lines with much needed ammo creates and emplacement, the engineer is another essential tool for any team.
1- Setup turrets in choke points relevant to current scenario.
2- Repair all ammo boxes and emplacements.
3- Destroy enemies emplacements and ammo boxes.
4- Camp corridors.
5- Destory unnecessary turrets.
6- Maintain yours, and other engineers turrets.
7- Build turret line to defend assassination target.
An agent of surprise, stealth, mischief, and chaos, the saboteur effortlessly sneaks past enemy lines to hit the enemies where it hurts most. Up close and personal, the saboteur laces pathways with his C4 to greet unsuspecting victims. A difficult class to use effectively, the saboteur can lay entire enemy logistical lines to ruins.
1- Maintain C4 traps further down choke points.
2- Remain concealed behind enemy lines.
3- Sabotage enemy defense parameters.
4- Lay in wait behind enemy lines in preparation for assassinations.
The big feared man. When the going gets tough, the tough gets blown away by the Assault. He is able to deal massive damage swiftly to the faces of an expecting enemy squad, and manage to walk out of it alive. Pick up a downed soldiers rifle, and the Assault becomes a defensive nightmare. Not much to see here except annhialate the enemy and break their lines!
1- Break strong enemy defensive lines.
2- Acquire and deliver intelligence.
3- Defend and hold defensive areas under heavy attack.
4- Storm through enemey territory to quickly take down assassination target.
Seemingly limited in use, the Medic is the perfect substitue for the Rifleman. You've got the best rifle in the game, and you can heal yourself, a deadly combination. Positioned behind defensive lines, the Medic quickly preps up any wounded back into the fight. The Medic is also an essential squad mate when attempting to infiltrate deep into enemy territory to establish a base. Not to be under estimated, the Medic silently re-enforces his team.
1- Maintain assassination target.
2- Maintain presence behind a choke points defensive line.
You have one objective, and that's to engage the enemy. You are the foundation of the Front Lines. All the other classes exist to support, and guide you.
1- Engage enemy where you are needed.
2- If you cannot push enemies back, maintain and hold current area.
3- Survey map for loosely defended areas and re-inforce them.
4- Lay down supressive fire in tight paths using M224 LMG.
Visari & Radec:
- I s**t on you!
5- Objective guidelines:
Body Count:
1- DO NOT engage enemies!
2- Fall back to defensive line and regroup.
3- Re-enforce defensive line.
4- Lock area! No one in AND no one out of defense line.
5- Shoot ANYTHING that moves!
Search and Retrieve:
1- Tactician, before the game mode switches, I expect a spawn grenade in the general intel area!
2- Tactician maintain that spawn point!
3- Tactician#2, maintain spawn point near enemy intel delivery point.
4- Squad of Assaults, acquire intel and move it!
5- Maintain spaced single file column with carrier second in line.
6- Squad leader is last in column.
7- When intel dropped, next in column pick and run.
8- When dead, spawn to intel spawn area.
9- If intel squad is having problems, spawn back to leader.
10- Saboteurs, establish C4 trap near enemy delivery area.
11- Rest of the team, engage enemies in route to intel delivery point.
Capture and hold:
1- Maintain YELLOW defense parameter. and HOLD!
2- Tactician + Assaults cut your way to last enemy Control area.
3- Tactician maintain a spawn grenade at enemy control area at all times.
4- Tactician#2 maintain spawn grenade at middle control area.
1- Target please fall back to secure area near HQ base.
2- Engineers setup RED defensive parameter.
3- Medics prepare pre-emptive blood packs near assassination target.
4- Medics prepare to revive.
5- Assassination target maintain room space movement incase of grenades and RPG.
Search and Destroy:
1- Tactician, before game mode changes, I expect to see a spawn grenade at the objective.
2- Rest of the team, COMPLETLEY cut off the floor/area building from enemy presence.
3- Shoot ANYTHING that moves.
4- At all costs, no enemy tactician must enter object area, not even come NEAR it!
5- Snipers, prepere to kill armers/defusers of bombs.
6- Engineers, lock those entry points with turrets and shotguns.
7- Riflemen, prepare those LMG's!
8- Patience, maintain calm at all time.
Q1- Enemy Tacticians keeps ruining the game by laying spawn grenades at objectives turning the game into a clusterfak. What am I supposed to do?
A1- Enemy Tacticians are the most dangerous class on the battlefield. It is the responsibility of your team's Tactician to establish troop presence in objective area before enemies arrive. It is your team's Engineers responsiliblity to setup a wide Defensive ring around the objective. Your team should be focused primarily on not allowing any enemy to come near the area. If an enemy Tactician was successfull in deploying a spawn grenade near the objective, your team should withdraw to a safe distance with good cover, and kill them as they spawn in. They're efforts are useless if they can't arm two bombs in 16 seconds. 16 seconds is a lot of time for your team to stop them. You do not need to be in their face to do that, it can be done from a very far distance.
Q2 - Assault class are cheap with their RPG, and armor, what am I supposed to do?
A2 - Taking down an Assault class is meant to be hard. Generally you should be working with a team mate to bring an Assault enemy down quickly. However, there's ample time to kill one as his primary weapon is generally slow. Your best bet, stay out of his way, and seek cover, pick him off from a distance, use help.
Q3 - My teams a mess, no coordination, just run and gun, with no objectives in mind. Why should I bother?
A3 - Crappy teams do exist that are beyond help. But they must be distinguished from a team of 'lonewolves' and running and gunning. If you end up with the latter, you're in luck. With little influence, this team can be turned into an objective killer machine. Withdraw to safety, and pick Tactician. You're team's only directive is to kill on sight, so why not allow to spawn where they can kill the most? They will magically attract to your 'well placed' spawn points and do the job. At worse you'll get a draw game. Another point to consider, players are attracted to signs of foundation. If an area has a fixed ammo crate, an active engineer, and a defensive turret, players will flock to the engineers area to establish a point from which to launch a fresh offense.
Q4 - This area is a grenade fest, this corridor is guarded by a cheap shotgunner. What am I to do?
A4 - Why are you in that dangerous are to begin with? Withdraw and search for an alternate route. Or wait for support to arrive. You are not forced to get yourself killed, nor are you forced to engage the enemy as quickly as possible. Remember that.
Good luck, see you on the battlefield!
Fantastic post! =D Very lovely to here someone actually talk about tactics...
I tell the truth I was feeling like I had some comment to say but man, you filled in all the holes basically. I like that you just mentioned general class objectives in the game and not character placements. It makes this thread relevent to any playstyle.
Thanks all. I will make more basic guides the more I understand other maps. Perhaps even go indepth with advance stuff on some of the maps, or even parts of it.
Do one on blood gracht!
I got a clan battle there today and I want to ace that map .

Hi Old Crank,
My apologies — the event's located at Coronado High School.
Hey, how about giving some addresses for these drop off sites!!!

Live music on Fridays, Karaoke on Thursdays, and Texas Hold'Em on Mondays. He said they are planing a Luau and Roasting a pig this Summer, plus 2 car shows, a bike show, and a Girls Car Wash! Nice to see Ofurrys back!
Very good band, awesome vocals. Definetly worth your time to check them out.

What a great race! So supportive, beautiful and friendly. I can't wait to race again next year!
Awesome show - blues, gospel, southern rock. Drop down, incredible musical talent and passion
old, tired, drunks, don't waste your time
This is an amazing group. You have to hear them live to appreciate the intricacy's of this band performing. They have elements of Weather Report , Yellow Jackets and even some Frank Zappa like instrumentals that weave their way through an intricate but melodic display of sounds. I was particularly intrigued by the unusual time signature performed to perfection throughout the night, but in particular the song "take a funky 5" was outstanding. If you enjoy opening your mind to exotic rhythm beautiful melodies and extra ordinary improvisation, you need to check these guys out.
The Herb Association has been a major sponsor of Herb Fest for 9 years. It's a terrific community event; fun for the whole family and a great place to rub elbows with local, small, healing businesses. Who could ask for more? The Herb Assoc. will have a booth there so come by and introduce yourself!

Great group and wonderful food prepared by each attendee. If you want to know more, check out their website... www.vegetarian.meetup.com/534
I have been faithfully attending DBSA support groups for over 10 years, and can testify that regular meetings with people who have a clue as to what you're going through has changed people's lives for the better.
Great restaurant, but wrong venue for this band (in fact wrong decade!). Singer can do much better than playing with these aging wannabees. Something about them gives me the creeps. Springs Orleans should stick with classy blues and jazz.
Attention Independent Artists:
New music store launch. Here are the stores to load your music. Enjoy.
We are looking for music merchants/bands/artists.
Great little jam at a great little place...good burgers, friendly staff, and a small venue for those musicians looking for that type of atmosphere to try out some new stuff. All musicians of all ages are welcome, and it's always fun. I love to play here regularly when I have the time, and Ryan and Rooster are fantastic!
World Tai Chi and Qigong Day will be at Acacia Park Downtown Colorado Springs

After 5 years in Brooklyn, it occurred to me that I was way over due to get myself a hipster single-speed bike. Unfortunately, if I stored it outside it would probably get stolen in the first week. And, NYC is not really known for it's storage space. The only option is to stash it high up on an available wall.
I looked all around for a good wall mount rack, but it seemed that they either looked ugly and cheap or cost a whole lot more than I wanted to spend. So I looked under my bed at all the random wood scraps I collect and searched through the Ikea catalog. I think the finished product turned out nicely. It looks clean and simple and only cost me $4.
Whenever I do this type of thing I always think it would have been smart to have taken more pictures and documented the process via an Instructable or something. But while I am working I always forget or just don't want to bother. Oh well.

FREE DISNEY CARTOON WALLPAPERFree Disney cartoon wallpaper for your use. Searching for the best cartoon backgrounds can leave you with a bad taste in your mouth, because you can find loads of cartoon backgrounds, but you can use any one of those pictures randomly as you would like. Not any image will work as a cartoon wallpaper. It's also sometimes difficult to find the kind of backgrounds that you like, for example, cool wallpaper like Ben 10 or Winnie the Pooh and Friends. One must remember that not any image size can be used for cartoon wallpapers. Make sure when you download an image, that the resolution of the image is compatible with your screen resolution settings. If the image is too small, then windows will stretch the image to fit your desktop. This allows for a weird distortion of the image, or the image will look blurred and out of focus. The reason for this is that every image you can find on the internet, consists out of a certain amount of pixels. Pixels are the little color dots that makes up a picture. Let's say you have a square of 2"x2" with 1000 dots inside it, if you stretch this square to be 10"x10", then the amount of dots (1000) still remains the same, but the surface area are larger. This will result in blurring or distorting of the image.

Real Quick, I was wondering if anyone could reccomend any supplement, vitamin, or diet alteration that quickens the healing of bruises. Thanks.
Epsom salt baths with a cup or two of baking soda is supposed to help. Mixed tocopherol Vitamin E might also be of use.
I suggest trying a topical Arnica gel. I tend to bruise easily and often, and Arnica helps speed up the healing.Originally Posted by Redeemer
You can do a google search to research the compound to help separate hype from reality.
