You're looking to buy Harley Davidson accessories, it can be almost overwhelming. This company has become so big and has expanded its product reach into so many different areas, that if you don't really know what you're doing, you won't know where to start. That's why I've put together this guide to some of the top accessories you can get to outfit your hog to the max.
Fender trim
One way to make the front of your ride stand out is by adding a chrome plated trim. This is one of the classic Harley Davidson accessories: it truly highlights the front of your bike so that whenever you're approaching someone or some place, they will notice this shine. Let's not joke around: style matters and you need to make your Harley Davidson look majestic and tough at the same time.
Exhaust system
Install an exhaust system in order to highlight the Harley's utterly unique sound. This also makes it look good. Whatever shape, size, or even material you want to outfit your exhaust with, you can find it. Any supplier will be able to offer you plentiful variety of exhausts, and probably not for as much as you think. Again, this is a great way to look and sound good, and of course run your bike better if you do it right.
Sissy bar bag
You know you want a little fanny pack for your bike! In all seriousness, this is of the utmost practicality. Obviously a truck is going to win out over a motorcycle every time when it comes to storage ability. But that's not really the point. If you get one of these Harley Davidson accessories, you can add a vital amount of storage space. With most accessories, the real point is to add functionality and convenience to your hog; the stylish stuff only comes as an after thought.
As you can see, there are plenty of Harley Davidson accessories that will make it a lot better when you go for a ride, or even go on a longer trip. If you're riding across the US or any other country, or whether you're just heading up to the bar for an hour, there are various means of decking out your ride and doing things like adding storage space. These are just some of your options in terms of accessories; many more have been profiled in our other articles on this site.

Abstract: The stress-attention in cascade reliability has been studied when both stess and strength follow Rayleigh distribution. The expression for the relaibility R(n), for a system survive with the first (n-1) components failed and the n component active, is obtained R(n) is calculated numerically, for n=1,2,3 and 4, for different values of the parameter p and the attention factor k. It has been found that with lower attention factors in high degree of reliability can be attained. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10311/677 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: The purpose of this essay is to identify gender contracts in self-help housing construction. Gender contracts have been defined as invisible power relationships that determine roles, responsibilities, privileges, status, sexuality and behaviour of men and women within households, communities, the market and the state. Gender contracts shape social, economic, political and sexual relationships in what people often refer to as 'our culture'. Various gender contracts constitute a gender system (e.g. patriarchy or matriarchy) under which general rules, perceptions, hierarchies and privileges are formulated, refined and preserved. The paper notes that although the advent of colonialism and capitalism did not replace patriarchal structures in Botswana, they set in new political and production systems that upset the traditional power base and provided opportunities for women to challenge traditional gender contracts—notably the marriage contract that had hitherto been used to oppress women. The paper further notes that despite women having made inroads into male domains, there has surfaced new sites and forms of female subordination largely due to gendered inequalities in accessing and controlling contemporary critical resources (land, money, modern technical skills and formal employment) as well as continued male dominance of community and state structures. Taking Lobatse as a case study, the paper tries to identify gender contracts formed as a result of men's takeover of construction activities which were traditionally undertaken by women in Botswana. It notes that besides dominating construction work, men control access to land, building skills, housing finance, and the entire self-help housing process in Lobatse, thereby forcing women into subordinate positions from which they have to bargain or negotiate new gender contracts.

Abstract: In this paper we trace how Gaborone has grown from a very small village to the capital city of Botswana in a period of less than 30 years. Attention has been given to how careful design of master plan concepts has shaped the city and responded to the needs and aspirations of the residents. Through appropriate and enabling urban- development policies, standards and codes, a very amenable environment has been created. The city can boast of adequate and modern civic and commercial centers; modern functional infrastructure including water, electricity, roads and sewage systems; access to land for virtually all people; adequate housing provided by both the public and the private sectors and for the low income, the adoption of a very successful program of squatter upgrad- ing and self-help housing. Through careful management and development control practices, city growth has been contained quite well in spite of rapid development and the future of the city looks quite bright.

Abstract: By involving the beneficiaries of a facility such as housing or an irrigation scheme, at the various stages of the project, it is possible to build their capacity in relation to the facility, which may contribute to the sustainability of the project beyond the disbursement period. A study carried out in Botswana found that the intensity of community participation at the various stages of facility development is influenced by the complexity of the technology adopted and the willingness of the facility managers to involve the community from the early stages of the project. Based on these findings, this paper proposes a framework which may be followed to achieve this end. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10311/407 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: The design and construction of infrastructure facilities such as road network, water supply and sewage disposal in Botswana, have often been done in a top-bottom fashion where the government or local authority decides what is good for the community. While the design and construction of infrastructure facilities require technical knowledge, heavy equipment and proper supervision, their management hardly requires these resources to the same extent. This offers the beneficiaries of the facilities an opportunity to manage their day-to-day operations and maintenance. Reports on an approach adopted to engage the community in the management of local road network, water supply and sanitation in three major villages in Botswana. It analyses the method previously employed in managing these facilities and outlines the benefits which will accrue when this approach is fully operational. Concludes by underlining the fact that, for community-managed facilities to work, the people in the community need to participate in all the stages of the project (i.e. planning, design, construction and eventually maintenance).

Abstract: The primary purpose of forming alliance in the construction industry is to pool together the resources of the participating partners in order to form a team that has a competitive advantage. Each partner in an alliance has its own competence and market share that do not necessarily fall under the alliance as common resources. Therefore, although the competitive advantage aimed at when forming an alliance is for common profits, each partner has a possibility of using it (the competitive advantage) for private profits (i.e. activities that do not fall under the alliance). Using a case study from Botswana, this paper argues that a construction alliances strives as long as the profits created by common activities are substantially higher that the ones that can be created by private activities. Once one of the partners in the alliance can create the competitive advantage in question on its own, it will opt out of the alliance through such mechanisms as withdrawing some of its key contributions to the alliance.

Abstract: Traditionally, competitive advantage has been based upon large-scale production and accumulation of large quantities of physical and financial assets. Large financially capable firms, particularly Multi-national Corporations (MNCs) and large construction firms create competitive advantages and sustain them through the use of such defence mechanisms as entry barriers and other competition-impeding features of industry structure. Small firms in developing countries, especially in Africa can hardly mobilize financial resources to match the MNCs and the large construction firms, nor can they employ similar defence mechanisms due to their lack of global reach.Using the construction industry in Botswana, the paper reports on a pilot study that investigated the factors that are crucial to creating constantly changing competitive advantage in the context of low financial resources. It concludes by emphasizing that firms operating in low financial contexts should create dynamic competitive advantages instead of imitating the strategies used by large financially capable firms.

Abstract: Public participation is considered the touchstone for the success of recycling schemes. In recognition of this, the trend in recycling policy and legislation is geared towards promoting people centred approaches in recycling with public education as the main driver towards increasing public participation. Most of the time, these initiatives do not take into consideration the perceptions and attitudes of the key stakeholders of municipal officials and the public towards waste recycling schemes. These perceptions and attitudes appear equivocal. This paper highlights the potential constraints to promoting people centred approaches in recycling and recommends some strategies that could mitigate them. The paper is based on a case of Gaborone and used household and key-informant interviews. The study found that, even though municipal officials in Gaborone are aware of the potential benefits of recycling, they appear not to embrace waste management reforms such as municipally organised recycling schemes amid their limited knowledge in organising such schemes. In addition, the study found that even though the public are aware of recycling, this does not necessarily translate into participation in recycling initiatives. Other factors such as limited economic direct economic incentives and absence of 'visible' recycling centres were found to limit participation in recycling initiatives. Further, the public are biased towards separating materials for recycling that have known markets and are of significant financial value. The paper concludes that while public education is important to raise awareness and enhance public participation in recycling, in Gaborone, such education must be complemented by direct incentives targeted to the participating public. To this end, the paper proposes a multi-stakeholder approach to recycling initiatives that involve NGOs, households, the private and public sectors to mitigate some of the above constraints.

Abstract: By the turn of the century, Botswana will be 34 years old as an independent nation. Reflecting on the past, is a background of tremendous achievements from a socio-economic development perspective. The achievements could not have been possible if it was not for the contribution. The construction industry's (CI) contribution to socio-economic development may be viewed from many areas, among them, creating employment, wealth and demand for manufactured goods, infrastructure and producing factors of production (e.g. office space, factory shells, roads, etc) for other sectors. However, the relationship between the general economy and the CI has not been established explicitly despite numerous studies. Using Botswana's CI and the economy, some of the paradigms proposed in previous studies revisited. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10311/843 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: This paper presents the results of an investigation to determine the level of continuing professional development (CPD) for engineers in developing countries. Questionnaires were administered randomly to engineers of different specialties. It was found that CPD for engineers in developing countries seems neglected. Experience and state of the art in the profession are, thus, not usually acquired in an organized fashion. Nevertheless, many of these engineers would support the introduction of continuing professional development at all levels of their careers. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10311/666 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: A new design developed by the authors that gives an opportunity to account for the interaction of different modes of buckling is presented.Eurocode 3 model is used as the reference model, an equivalent geometric imperfection comprising of an initial bow being equal to the length divided by 500 is used.The model is based on the design criterion referred to the individual chord components. It allows to avoid the application of complicated procedure based on an explicitly given imperfection parameter. It is achieved by a treatment of a chord local buckling mode between lacing connections in the same way as the plate buckling of chord sectional elements.The buckling design of the compound number can therefore be carried out in the same wayas for a single element provided that the stiffness of lacing members is properly taken care of.

Abstract: There is little in-depth research that can assist designers to use culture as a catalyst for designing innovative products within Botswana's context. The concept of culture and design are intertwined, thus modifications stemming from cultural evolution both reflect and determine developments in design. The paper discusses an experimental design approach conducted at the University of Botswana and participants challenge was to transform and encode socio-cultural factors into product design features. The paper concludes by discussing a model which has shown one way concerning how to consciously specify, analyse and integrate socio-cultural factors in the design process.

Abstract: The axial–torsional cyclic deformation behavior of polycrystalline nickel was investigated by performing fully reversed plastic strain amplitude controlled fatigue experiments at effective plastic strain amplitudes ranging from 1×10−4 to 1×10−3. Experiments were accomplished under proportional and 90◦ out-of-phase nonproportional loading paths. Results indicate that loading path has very little effect on the cyclic response at the lower effective plastic strain amplitude. However, at the higher effective plastic strain amplitude, significant additional hardening is induced by the nonproportional loading path.

Abstract: Results are presented on the effects of biaxial straining on the cyclic stress–strain response of ultrafine grain nickel (grain size 260 nm) and conventional grain nickel (grain size 50 lm) over a range of effective plastic strain amplitudes from 1 10 4 to 1 10 3. Grain refinement causes an increase in saturation stress. For conventional grain nickel, non-proportional straining causes higher saturation stress than proportional straining; but the ultrafine grain material exhibits the opposite behavior.

Abstract: Maintenance of the proper power factor is a very important matter for the industry and for the economy of any country. A study of the power factor value for a number of industrial plants in Botswana shows that they operate at power factors lower that the optimal values. If a plant power factor is different from its optimal value, this will cause considerable loses in terms of investments for large power generation and supply equipment and in terms of heat dissipation from the supply lines and other equipment. To improve the power factor and keep it at an optimal value, there are a number of preventative measures, as well as corrective actions that could be implemented. The power factor of a plant changes, depending on the number of electrical units operating at a time. After a full analysis of the power factor issue and its optimal case, are automatic control is designed that may maintain the power factor of a plant within values close to optimal. Similar automatic power factor control system can be introduced for all industrial plants with unsatisfactory power factor throughout the country that can improve considerably the efficiency of power utilization.

Abstract: A team of academics produced a Design Brief (DB) to assist architects design a scholarly physical environment for modern engineering education and research. The information gathered from external and internal sources was used to define important themes that the buildings should reflect and hence to arrive at a list of the required spaces. Critical internal and external reviews and budget constraints led to a series of successive refinements of the DB. A design competition was organised for all interested architects in the country to select the architect for the project and consolation prizes were awarded to second and third finalists. The planned development will provide 17900 m2 and 25200 m2 net usable space and estimated gross building area respectively. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10311/599 Files in this item: 1

On the basis of that and with due consideration to the cost of VARS compensation equipment, a mathematical model is developed to determine an economically justified transmission distance for VARS in electric power systems. Standard voltages and line parameters are used for the computations. MATLAB computer programming is used to obtain the numerical results. The developed mathematical model and the numerical results could be useful to electric power systems engineers. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10311/414 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: The demand for adequate training of artisans and apprentices in the construction industry cannot be over emphasized in view of the rapid changes the industry is undergoing. Many of of these changes are continously taking place especially in the areas of utilization and maintainability of construction materials. The local vocational institutions should vigorously embark on reviewing the vocational education and training. This will result in the supply of cadres with acceptible quality of training in order to meet the challenges of the building industry. In spite of the ten years of involvement by the local vocational institutions in the training of artisans and apprentices there is still shortage of skilled manpower. The aim of the paper, therefore, is to assess the relevance of the vocational training programs and the trends of output of artisans and apprentices trained before and after the second construction boom from boom from 1986 to 1990 and 1992 to 1996.

Although Oxford, England's Foals didn't release their debut full-length, Antidotes, until the spring of 2008, they had already begun to make quite a name for themselves, thanks to the British singles "Hummer" and "Mathletics," and successful dates in the U.S. the preceding fall; meaning, of course, that the anticipation for the record had plenty of time to grow. Fortunately, Antidotes is able to live up to the hype. Suggested by Dawn |
This machine
The Dandy Warhols' searching, contemplative songs have always been a tantalizing yin to the band's brash, sarcastic yang, but it wasn't until This Machine that they devoted most of an album to their thoughtful side. Judging from how well these songs work, it was long overdue; like Earth to the Dandy Warhols, this is one of the band's most consistent sets yet. Suggested by Dawn |
On Banga, Smith marries together her various forms of literary expression with rock and pop in an iconic assemblage. Her collaborators are (mostly) familiar: guitarist Lenny Kaye, drummer Jay Dee Daugherty, bassist Tony Shanahan, guitarist Tom Verlaine, her children Jackson and Jessi, and guitarist Jack Petruzzelli. Italian band Casa del Vento and Johnny Depp also appear. The album is saturated with poetry, sung or spoken -- sometimes both. Its themes range from a non-didactic reflection on environmental crisis, the dominion of art as man's greatest gift to the divine -- as well as its own species -- homages, elegies, and love songs, all offered with authority and tenderness.

Led by dad Dave and mom Morley, the family's foibles are recounted in good humor. The last story in the set, "Polly Anderson's Christmas Party" has particular resonance at this time of year.

The North-West Rebellion (or the North-West Resistance, Saskatchewan Rebellion, Northwest Uprising, or Second Riel Rebellion) of 1885 was a brief and unsuccessful uprising by the Métis people of the District of Saskatchewan under Louis Riel against the government of Canada. During a time of great social change in Western Canada, the Métis believed that the Canadians had failed to address the protection of their rights, their land and their survival as a distinct people. Despite some notable early victories at Duck Lake, Fish Creek and Cut Knife, the rebellion effectively ended for the Métis with their defeat at the siege of Batoche, Saskatchewan, the eventual scattering of their allied Aboriginal forces elsewhere, and the trial and hanging of Louis Riel. Tensions between French Canada and English Canada increased for some time.[7][8] Due to the role that the Canadian Pacific Railway played in transporting troops, political support increased and Parliament authorized funds to complete the country's first transcontinental railway.
After the Red River Rebellion of 1869–1870, many of the Métis moved from Manitoba to the Fort Carlton region of the Northwest Territories, where they founded the Southbranch settlements of Fish Creek, Batoche, St. Laurent, St. Louis and Duck Lake on or near the South Saskatchewan River.[9][10] In 1882 surveyors began dividing the land of the newly formed District of Saskatchewan in the square concession system. The Métis lands were laid out in the seigneurial system of strips reaching back from a river which the Métis were familiar with in their French-Canadian culture.[7]A year after the survey the 36 families of the parish of St. Louis found that their land and village site that included a church and a school (in Tsp 45 Rge 7 W2 of the Dominion Land Survey) had been sold by the Government of Canada to the Prince Albert Colonization Company.[11]Not having clear title the Métis feared losing their land which, now that the buffalo herds were gone, was their primary source of sustenance.[8]
In 1884 the Métis (including the Anglo-Métis) asked Louis Riel to return from the United States, where he had fled after the Red River Rebellion, to appeal to the government on their behalf.[7] The government gave a vague response. In March 1885, Riel, Gabriel Dumont, Honoré Jackson (a.k.a. Will Jackson), and others set up the Provisional Government of Saskatchewan, believing that they could influence the federal government in the same way as they had in 1869.
The role of aboriginal peoples prior to — and during — the outbreak of the rebellion is often misunderstood. A number of factors have created the misconception that the Cree and Métis were acting in unison. By the end of the 1870s the stage was set for discontent among the aboriginal people of the prairies: the bison population was in serious decline (creating enormous economic difficulties)[12] and, in an attempt to assert control over aboriginal settlement, the federal government often violated the terms of the treaties it had signed during the latter part of the decade.[13] Thus, widespread dissatisfaction with the treaties and rampant poverty spurred Big Bear, a Cree chief, to embark on a diplomatic campaign to renegotiate the terms of the treaties (the timing of this campaign happened to coincide with an increased sense of frustration among the Métis).[14] When the Cree initiated violence in the spring of 1885, it was almost certainly unrelated to the revolt of Riel and the Métis (which was already underway). In both the Frog Lake Massacre and the Siege of Fort Battleford, small dissident groups of Cree men revolted against the authority of Big Bear and Poundmaker.[15] Although he quietly signalled to Ottawa that these two incidents were the result of desperate and starving people and were, as such, unrelated to the rebellion, Edgar Dewdney, the lieutenant-governor of the territories, publicly claimed that the Cree and the Métis had joined forces.[16]
For Riel and the Métis, several factors had changed since the Red River Rebellion. The railway had been completed across the prairies in 1883, though sections were still under construction north of Lake Superior, making it easier for the government to get troops into the area. In addition, the North-West Mounted Police (NWMP) had been created, developing an armed local force. Riel lacked support from English settlers of the area as well as many of the non-Métis natives. Riel's belief that God had sent him back to Canada as a prophet caused the Catholic Church to withdraw its support for his actions. The Catholic priest, Albert Lacombe, worked to obtain assurances from Crowfoot that his Blackfoot warriors would not participate in a rebellion.[17]

Battle of Duck Lake[edit]
On March 26, 1885, the 150 to 200 Métis and Aboriginal warriors under the command of Gabriel Dumont defeated a combined group of 90 Prince Albert Volunteers and North-West Mounted Police led by their superintendent Leif Newry Fitzroy Crozier at Duck Lake, outside Batoche.[18]
In response, the federal government sent Major General Frederick Middleton in command of 3,000 troops to the area, where Middleton incorporated another 2,000, mostly English-Canadian volunteers and 500 North-West Mounted Police into his force.[1]
Looting of Battleford[edit]
On March 30, 1885, a raiding party of Cree people, short of food due to declining bison populations, approached Battleford. The white inhabitants fled to the nearby North-West Mounted Police post, Fort Battleford. The Cree then took food and supplies from the empty stores and houses. In an argument, an Indian Agent was shot and killed.[19]
Frog Lake Massacre[edit]
On April 2, 1885, near Frog Lake, Saskatchewan (now in Alberta) a Cree raiding party led by Wandering Spirit attacked a small town. Angered by what seemed to be unfair treaties and the withholding of vital provisions by the Canadian government,and also by the dwindling buffalo population, their main source of food, Big Bear and his Cree decided to rebel after the successful Métis victory at Duck Lake. They gathered all the white settlers in the area into the local church. They killed Thomas Quinn, the town's Indian Agent, after a disagreement broke out. The Cree then attacked the settlers, killing eight more and taking three captive.[20][21][5]
The massacre prompted the Canadian government to take notice of the growing unrest in the North-West Territories. When the rebellion was put down, the government hanged Wandering Spirit, the war chief responsible for the Frog Lake Massacre.
Battle of Fort Pitt[edit]
On April 15, 1885, 200 Cree warriors descended on Fort Pitt. They intercepted a police scouting party, killing a constable, wounding another, and captured a third. Surrounded and outnumbered, garrison commander Francis Dickens (son of novelist Charles Dickens) capitulated and agreed to negotiate with the attackers. Big Bear released the remaining police officers but kept the townspeople as hostages and destroyed the fort. Six days later, Inspector Dickens and his men reached safety at Battleford.[22]
Battle of Fish Creek[edit]
On April 24, 1885, at Fish Creek, Saskatchewan, 200 Métis achieved a remarkable victory over a superior government force numbering 900 soldiers who were sent to quell the rebellion. The reversal, though not decisive enough to alter the outcome of the war, temporarily halted Major General Frederick Middleton's column's advance on Batoche. That was where the Métis would later make their final stand.[23]
Battle of Cut Knife[edit]
On May 2, 1885, the Cree war chief Fine-Day defeated Lieutenant Colonel William Otter at the Battle of Cut Knife near Battleford. Despite their use of a Gatling gun, a flying column of Canadian militia and army regulars, government forces were defeated. Fine-Day was affiliated with the chief Poundmaker. Big Bear would not get involved.[24][25]
Battle of Batoche[edit]
On May 9, 1885, Middleton attacked Batoche itself. The greatly outnumbered Métis ran out of ammunition after three days of battle and siege. In the end, the Métis resorted to firing sharp objects and small rocks from their guns, until they were forced to retreat when Middleton's soldiers advanced in force. Riel surrendered on May 15. Gabriel Dumont and other participants escaped across the border to the Montana Territory of the United States.[26]
Battle of Frenchman's Butte[edit]
On May 28, 1885, Major General Thomas Bland Strange brought an NWMP detachment from Calgary, Alberta, but they were unable to defeat a Cree force under Big Bear who carried the day at Frenchman's Butte at the end of May.[27]
Battle of Loon Lake[edit]
On June 3, 1885, a small detachment of North-West Mounted Police under the command of Major Sam Steele caught up to a band of Cree led by Big Bear who were moving northward after their victory at Frenchman's Butte. The Cree were almost out of ammunition, and were forced to flee after a short exchange of fire and the release of their hostages.[28]
Demoralized, defenceless, and with no hope of relief after the surrender of the Métis and Poundmaker, most of the Cree surrendered over the next few weeks. Big Bear was captured near Fort Carlton on an island in the Saskatchewan River about July 1 by the North-West Mounted Police. The government was able to pacify the Cree and Assiniboine by sending them food and other supplies. Poundmaker and Big Bear were sentenced to prison, and eight other Aboriginal leaders were hanged.[29] Riel was tried and hanged as well, sparking a national controversy between French and British Canada.[8]
The Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) played a key role in the government's response to the Rebellion, as it was able to transport federal troops to the area quickly. While it had taken three months to get troops to the Red River Rebellion, the government was able to move forces in nine days by train in response to events in the North-West Territories. The successful operation increased political support for the floundering and incomplete railway, which had been close to financial collapse. The government authorized enough funds to finish the line. Thus Prime Minister John A. Macdonald was able to realize his National Dream of linking Canada across the continent.
In what is now Saskatchewan, shortly after the fighting, the first modern-style election took place in the North-West Territories election of 1885. The Scrip Commission was dispatched to the District of Saskatchewan to address the issue of Métis land claims.[30][31]
In the spring of 2008, Tourism, Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Christine Tell proclaimed in Duck Lake, that "the 125th commemoration, in 2010, of the 1885 Northwest Rebellion is an excellent opportunity to tell the story of the prairie Métis and First Nations peoples' struggle with Government forces and how it has shaped Canada today."[32]
Batoche, where a Métis Provisional Government had been formed, has been declared a National Historic Site. Batoche marks the site of Gabriel Dumont's grave site, Albert Caron's House, Batoche school, Batoche cemetery, Letendre store, Dumont's river crossing, Gariépy's crossing, Batoche crossing, St. Antoine de Padoue Church, Métis rifle pits, and RNWMP battle camp.[33][34]
BATOCHE. In 1872, Xavier Letendre dit Batoche founded a village at this site where Métis freighters crossed the South Saskatchewan River. About 50 families had claimed the river lots in the area by 1884. Widespread anxiety regarding land claims and a changing economy provoked a resistance against the Canadian Government. Here, 300 Métis and Indians led by Louis Riel and Gabriel Dumont fought a force of 800 men commanded by Major-General Middleton between May 9 and 12, 1885. The resistance failed but the battle did not mean the end of the community of Batoche.
Fort Carlton Provincial Historic site has been rebuilt as it had been ravaged by three separate fires. Big Bear (Mistahimaskwa) had used the site in his initial negotiations for Treaty Six in about 1884, and finally, the following year he surrendered here after his engagement at Steele Narrows.[36][37] The Prince Albert blockhouse was employed by the North-West Mounted Police on evacuating from Fort Carlton after the first fire.[38] Duck Lake is home to the Duck Lake Historical Museum and the Duck Lake Regional Interpretive Centre, and murals which reflect the history of the Rebellion in the area. The Battle of Duck Lake, the Duck Lake Massacre, and a buffalo jump are all located here. The "First Shots Cairn" was erected on Saskatchewan Highway 212 as a landmark commemorating the scene of the first shots in the Battle of Duck Lake. The Our Lady of Lourdes Shrine at St. Laurent north of Duck Lake is a local pilgrimage site.[39][40][41][42] The Battle of Fish Creek National Historic Site, the name has been changed to Tourond's Coulee / Fish Creek National Historic Site to preserve the battlefield of April 24, 1885, at la coulée des Tourond , Madame Tourond's home, early Red River cart Fish Creek Trail and the site of Middleton's camp and graveyard.[43]
"North West Rebellion - Fish Creek - While General Middleton was moving to capture Batoche his forces were attacked on the 24th April 1885, by the Half-breeds under Gabriel Dumont from concealed rifle pits near the mouth of Fish Creek. The rebels were defeated and driven from the field. Erected 1933."
The Marr Residence is a municipal heritage property of Saskatoon which served as a field hospital for wounded soldiers of the rebellion.[45][46][47] Fort Otter was constructed at Battleford's government house located at the capital of the North-West Territories. Poundmaker was arrested at Fort Battleford and eight first nation men were hung in the aftermath of the Frog Lake Massacre. Fort Battleford has been declared a National Historic site of Canada to commemorate its role as military base of operations for Cut Knife Hill, Fort Pitt, as a refuge for 500 area settlers and its role in the Siege of Battleford.[38][48][49][50] Fort Pitt, the scene of the Battle of Fort Pitt, is a Provincial Park and National Historic site where a National Historic Sites and Monuments plaque designates where Treaty six was signed.[51][52][53] Frog Lake Massacre National Historic Site of Canada, at Frog Lake, Alberta, is the location of the Cree uprising which occurred in the District of Saskatchewan North-west Territories.[54] Frenchman Butte is a National Historic Site of Canada, which locates the theatre of the 1885 battle staged between Cree and Canadian troops.[55][56]
"Cut Knife Battlefield. Named after Chief Cut Knife of the Sarcee in an historic battle with the Cree. On 2nd May 1885, Lt. Col. W. D. Otter led 325 troops composed of North-West Mounted Police, "B" Battery, "C" Company, Foot Guards, Queen's Own and Battleford Rifles, against the Cree and Assiniboine under Poundmaker and Fine Day. After an engagement of six hours, the troops retreated to Battleford."
At Cutknife is the world's largest tomahawk, the Poundmaker Historical Centre and Big Bear monument erected by cairn erected by the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada. There is also now, correctly located, a cairn erected upon Cut Knife Hill the look site of the Poundmaker Battle site and Battle River valley.[58][59][60][61] The Narrows between Makwa Lake and
Sanderson Bay, in the Makwa Lake Provincial Park, was the site of the last engagement of the rebellion. Steele Narrows Provincial Historic Park conserves the lookout point of a Cree burial ground.[62][63] The Royal Canadian Mounted Police training depot was established in 1874, and still survives. The RCMP chapel frame building was built in 1885 is still standing which was used to jail Indian prisoners. One of three Territorial Government Buildings remains on Dewdney Avenue in the provincial capital city of Regina which was the site of the Trial of Louis Riel, where the drama the Trial of Louis Riel is still performed. Following the May trial, Louis Riel was hang November 16, 1885. The RCMP Heritage Centre, in Regina, opened in May 2007.[64][65][66] The Métis brought his body to Saint-Vital, his mother's home, now the Riel House National Historic Site, and then interred at the Saint-Boniface Basilica in Manitoba, his birthplace, for burial.[67][68] Highway 11, stretching from Regina to just south of Prince Albert, has been named Louis Riel Trail by the province; the roadway passes near locations of the 1885 rebellion.[69]
In fiction[edit]
- Stewart Sterling's Red Trails (1935) depicted the pulp hero Eric Lewis, a Mountie of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police. He tries to keep "peace and order" during the North-West Rebellion, helped by Sergeant Tim Clone.[70]
- The novel for young adults called Battle Cry at Batoche, by B. J. Bayle, portrays the events of the North-West Resistance from a Métis person point of view.

Retiree Need to Know Information
Eligibility for IU Retiree Status
Employees with IU Retiree status at the time of termination are entitled to certain benefit programs. These include the programs listed above: IU Tuition Benefit, Life Insurance, and Medical care.
IU Retiree status is determined by the following age and service criteria:
Age at separation* | Minimum Years of Service |
55 |
30 |
56 |
28 |
57 |
26 |
58 |
24 |
59 |

61** |
18 |
62** |
16 |
63 |
14 |
64 |
12 |
65 or over |
10 |
* Separation from IU or employment status change that results in discontinuation of Basic Life Insurance benefits. **At ages 60, 61, 62, employees covered by the PERF retirement plan on the date of separation shall qualify with at least 15 years of IU service. The "Years of IU Service" requirement will be prorated for ages that fall between the ages that are listed in the above table. "Years of IU Service" means the years of full-time appointed service at Indiana University. |
Dependent Eligibility
All employees with IU Retiree status are eligible to enroll in IU-sponsored Retiree group health care coverage if they are covered by an IU-sponsored health care plan at the time of termination from the university (or when COBRA continuation coverage eligibility ends).
Eligible dependents include the individuals listed below, if they are eligible and covered by the Retiree's IU-sponsored health care plan at the time of termination from the university (or when COBRA continuation coverage eligibility ends). Once enrolled in an IU-sponsored health care plan, dependents cannot be added.
- the Retiree's legal spouse or registered same-sex domestic partner
- the Retiree's dependent children who continue to meet the definition of a dependent child as defined by IU for active employee coverage (i.e., the child remains unmarried; the child meets the IRS support test as a dependent of the employee; the child is age 23 or under, and if age 19 or over, meets either IU's requirements for student eligibility or disabled dependent child eligibility).
The above dependents are only eligible as long as the Retiree is enrolled in an IU-sponsored Retiree health care plan. An exception is that the surviving spouse and children of an employee are eligible if the employee has Retiree status as the time of death or the employee's death occurs while the dependents are covered under the Retiree's IU-sponsored Retiree health care plan.
Discontinuation of Participation
Participation as an active employee in an IU-sponsored health care plan ends on the day in which the Retiree terminates from the university.
The Retiree's coverage ends on the first of the month for which the individual has not made the required contribution.
Dependent coverage under an IU-sponsored Retiree health care plan ends when:
- the Retiree's coverage ends for a reason other than death of the Retiree;
- when the dependent ceases to meet the definition of an eligible dependent;
- upon discontinuance of all dependent coverage under the plan; or
- when the dependent becomes eligible for employee coverage.
It is also important to note the following conditions of participation in IU-sponsored Retiree health coverage:
- After dropping IU-sponsored Retiree health care coverage, participants cannot re-enroll at a later time.
- Dependents of a participating Retiree may continue coverage should the Retiree die.
- If the Retiree and dependents do not elect an IU-sponsored health care plan at the time of retirement, they cannot participate at a later time.
Additional Questions?
For questions about retiree status contact the University Human Resource Services Benefits Specialist ( or 812-856-4459).

Posted: Dec 28, 2012 5:42 PM by Marnee Banks (email@example.com)
Thirty trailer owners on Canyon Ferry Lake were just notified that they have four months before they need to pack up their belongings and find a new place to recreate.
Goose Bay Marina has been providing a home away from home for more than 30 years. Some people come and park their RVs for a week or two, while others have established lots with trailers that they have been vacationing on for years.
The federal Bureau of Reclamation owns the land and Jerry Reller leases it and operates the Marina. The trailer and RV owners pay the Marina lot rent.
Two years ago Broadwater County notified the Marina that its septic system violated county standards, largely due to the trailers which are permanently parked there.
After they were notified, the Rellers were given a two year extension to fix the issues. Now the Reller's lease with the Bureau it set to expire at the end of this year.
"The Bureau can't put out a new lease until it's rectified one way or the other, either another drain field or whatever is put in. They have been real crazy about what they will let us do," Reller says. "We aren't going to put out a bunch of money without some security."
The trailer owners have formed a homeowners association to try and come up with a solution. President Scott Joyner says they have the money to fix the septic system but the Bureau is unwilling to work with them.
In a letter dated December 21, 2012, the Bureau is demanding the trailers be removed by April.
It also states that Reller can continue to run the Marina through the summer if he pays for a temporary septic fix. But after that the Bureau has scheduled major upgrades to the property and the Rellers are essentially out of business.
Bureau spokesman Tyler Johnson says this isn't just about the septic but also about public access to federal land.
He says these trailers have been there for years and the land is essentially being used for an exclusive group of families, which is contrary to federal land policy.
The Bureau hopes these upgrades and changes will bring more people to the area and provide public access to public land.
Meanwhile the homeowners association is examining their legal options and trying to negotiate a deal so they can stay on the property.

Last Tuesday, many Patch sites in San Mateo County reported on a $5,000 reward being offered by the Peninsula Humane Society for information leading to the arrest and conviction of whoever abandoned two dogs in San Bruno, reportedly found in the worst condition the shelter's veterinary and cruelty investigation staff have ever seen.
San Mateo local editor Laura Dudnick reported that the dogs, unable to walk, received pain medication immediately. But due to their medical conditions, the staff veterinarian determined that euthanasia was the only humane option, and the animals were euthanized later that day.
One dog had a compound fracture of the front left leg with an exposed bone stump rounded at the edges. The remnant of the fractured leg was stuck to the body by severe matting. The dog was also missing its front right paw.
The second dog had a fracture of the rear left leg and his front legs were extremely bowed, indicating long term malnourishment.
The staff veterinarian and investigator were certain both dogs had been suffering for months, possibly more than a year.
"This is tragic," humane society spokesman Scott Delucchi said. "We are deeply saddened to know these dogs lived this way for some time and sickened to know their owner apparently didn't seek help, but appears to have tossed them out like trash. We are as outraged as we would expect the public to be," he said.
How should animals owners who treat their dogs and cats with apparent neglect be treated if they are caught? Animal cruelty charges in the state of California are considered either misdemeanors or felonies.
Intentional abuse occurs when an animal is physically abused. Intentional neglect occurs when an animal is deprived of food, water, shelter, or veterinary services.
Although there are over 50 California laws that specifically deal with the mistreatment of animals, there is one primary law that regulates animal abuse neglect -- Penal Code 597, which prohibits:
- maliciously, intentionally, or cruelly maiming, mutilating, torturing or wounding a living animal, or depriving an animal of necessary food, drink, or shelter.
Penalties vary for those convicted. Misdemeanor convictions can bring up to a year in the county jail and a $20,000 fine.
Felony convictions generally face 16 months to three years in a California prison and the same fine.
In February 2010, California Senator Dean Florez proposed a bill that would require convicted animal abusers to register their name, picture, address, and place of employment with law enforcement agencies that would then publish the information on the Internet. Ultimately, state legislators defeated SB 1277.
One Web site - Petabuse.com - already offers a type of online registry, with listings of animal offenders and their crimes.
Studies indicate animal abusers often go on to abuse humans, sometimes children. Do you believe that? Have you ever experienced a situation like this?
We asked PHS spokesman Scott Delucchi for his opinion.
"Our organization's hope would be that animal cruelty cases are treated seriously, given the facts that folks who abuse and mistreat animals are also likely to harm people and show a general discard for life or lack of self-control," says Delucchi. "And, we absolutely feel these cases are treated seriously - by police, the Sherriff's Office (to the small extent they get involved in these cases) and to a larger extent by the District Attorney's Office.
"We don't see the same approach in other parts of the state or county, and for that, we feel fortunate and think of our DA's Office as an extremely supportive partner in these cases. We think and care far more about this than we do about actual penalties assigned."
What are your thoughts? Is there ever justification for mis-treating an animal? Is discipline just carried too far sometimes? Should animal abusers be treated any differently than those who abuse human beings? Should fines and incarceration times be increased?
Weigh in. Let us know what you think in the comments.

What's Nesting in Your Backyard?
Strolling around the neighborhood or the woods this time of year, you see lots of bird nests, no longer hidden by foliage.
Avian Architecture will identify the birds that made those nests and give you lots of fascinating insights about how those birds design, engineer, and build the nests. And I'm not exaggerating when I use the word fascinating. I found this book, written by Peter Goodfellow and published by Princeton University Press in 2011, to be amazing.
First, the gorgeous photos will grab your attention, 300 gorgeous full-color shots. My mouth fell open when I turned to the introduction and saw the African Masked-Weaver, hanging upside down from its nest. Wow!
This book is thorough. Each chapter opens with an overview of a type of nest, presents real blueprints, lists the materials and other features, describes the building techniques, and finishes with case studies demonstrating how different species adopt their nest type to specific habitat. I was engrossed by it all.
And don't worry. It's not all about African birds! In fact, chapter one includes Piping Plovers, a very important (and endangered) species here in Maine, whose "scrape nests" are mere shallow indentations in a beach, making them very susceptible to predation. Bad building plan!
Wait 'til you see the Black-capped Chickadee, peeking out of its hole in a dead decaying tree, in chapter two. I've always wondered where they nested.
As the Maine legislature embarks on a debate about a relaxation in protection of waterfowl nesting habitat, the chapter on aquatic nest structures should be required reading. Important stuff!
After the leaves dropped last October, I noticed a cup-shaped nest in low bushes behind the house. Turning to Avian Architecture, I quickly identified the nest as belonging to a Yellow Warbler – exactly the bird Linda and I noticed many times in our backyard. Bingo!
Then there are the "Velcro" nests that are elastic, expanding along with the chicks. And all this time, I thought the Shakers had invented Velcro! Nests are built almost entirely with the beak. And the males of some species build up to a dozen nests, hoping that one will draw the interest – and attendance – of a female.
I was especially excited to learn that two species construct edible nests – used in bird nest soup – but alas, they exist only in Southeast Asia. Not sure I'm daring enough to try eating a bird's nest, anyway.
You probably recognize an Oriole nest, suspended from the fork of a twig hanging from the highest branch of a tall tree. We have an old elm in the front yard that Orioles particularly favor. But I didn't know, until reading this book, that those intricate nests are constructed using tens of thousands of stitches and rapid shuttle movements. The illustration of this technique is very interesting.
Avian Architecture is a hardcover sizeable book, hefty in the hands, glorious throughout, and will add immeasurably to your enjoyment of Maine's great outdoors, especially if you are a birder. Even if you are not, a walk around the back yard will be enhanced by what you learn in this book.

Partial colectomy |
Colectomy is a surgical procedure to remove all or part of your colon. Your colon, also called your large intestine, is a long tube-like organ at the end of your digestive system. Colectomy may be necessary to treat or prevent diseases and conditions that affect your colon.
There are various types of colectomy operations:
- Total colectomy involves removing the entire colon.
- Partial colectomy involves removing part of the colon and may also be called subtotal colectomy.
- Hemicolectomy involves removing the right or left portion of the colon.
- Proctocolectomy involves removing both the colon and rectum.
Colectomy surgery usually requires other procedures to reattach the remaining portions of your digestive system and permit waste to leave your body.

The Staffordshire Regiment (Prince of Wales') or simply "Stafford's" for short was an infantry regiment of the British Army and part of the Prince of Wales' Division. The regiment was formed in 1959 by the amalgamation of The South Staffordshire Regiment and The North Staffordshire Regiment (Prince of Wales's).
The Stafford's can trace their history back to 1705 when a regiment known as the 38th Foot was raised at Lichfield by Colonel Luke Lillingstone.
As part of the reorganisation of the infantry it was announced in 2004, that the Staffordshire Regiment would merge with the Cheshire Regiment and the Worcestershire and Sherwood Foresters Regiment into a new three-battalion regiment to be called the Mercian Regiment.
On 1 September 2007 the Staffordshire Regiment
became the 3rd Battalion, Mercian Regiment (Stafford's),
and will operate permanently in the armoured infantry role.
Initially based at Tidworth, the battalion moved to
Bad Fallingbostel, Germanyin August 2009, where it is now permanently based
as part of 7th Armoured Brigade (The Desert Rats).
Other money and cheques that were handed over previously took our donations to £12000

to every one that supported us

I want to combine a learn "surf n spanish" experience next winter (early 2011, feb-apr is the period i'm looking at).
I've googled a whole lot, but i have an inkling most places on the internet are probably tourist traps, and when you get to your destination, you can probably find a cheap deal right there on the ground. I have never tried surfing, so i want to devote six weeks or so to learning properly, surfing in the afternoon, and learning spanish in the morning.
I'm hoping you guys can tell me where my best chances are, given the following preferences:
underdeveloped - ie. cheap and as few tourists as possible (to minimize the possibility of speaking english with anyone)
sunny - so ecuador is not a good choice, as it's always cloudy
close to beach - so i can practice surfing daily and take surf lessons
spanish schools around - so i can take classes
i guess a spanish school and no tourist preference is an oxymoron, but i'm hoping you guys can tell me where my best chances are.
But it's important it be cheap and no-touristy, so i really can the most bang for my buck.
Thanks all!

good but not great
I really liked it but I found it alittle rough/hard on my lips and it won't go on smoothly without a lip balm underneath it. Allthough the color payoff was insane!! In the long run I will repurchase it
I bought Deep Purple from an Ebay retailer thinking it'd be as the name implied as most of the NYX liners are. I was wrong. This liner is the same color as the Plum liner I have from NYX. There's nothing wrong with it, except that I already have this color. This is just to warn you guys. Don't buy one if you have the other.

There's nothing wrong with it, except that I already have this color. This is just to warn you guys. Don't buy one if you have the other.
I have it in the shade "Dolly Pink", which does not happen to be listed here, but it's a bright hot pink color! I really like it underneath a pink lipgloss, it creates the perfect pink lip for me. Although it is very drying on it's own, applying lip balm first will literally seal the deal.
MAC DUPE at its finest
If you want the same quality of what a MAC lip pencil offers without having to dish out over 12 dollars for one, you are in luck. I have got about 4 of these babies and the colors are beautiful, your lipstick will stay put and it stays on for the day! I completely love NYX as an affordable High Quality brand.
These are absolutely amazing!! Everything about it, is perfect. The color is really pigmented, you can just wear it alone or under lipstick. Its smooth and stays long. Its not too drying. The price is just so great and the quality is great! I wouldn't want to get any other lip liner! Sometimes with other lip liners it feels like its scratching the lips but this one never did that to me. I'm amazed at the quality and price of the nyx lip liners!
i absolutley adore these lip liners, they are amazing. these are the only ones that i own, they do a great job at gliding on to the lips, but you do need to make sure that your lips are moisturuzed before hand. my favorite colors are 'peekaboo neutral' 'natural' and 'nude'. but i have several of them and for only one dollar, such a steal. never will i buy MAC lipliners.

Nice "nude" colour
I got this lip pencil in the shade Rose. It is the closest shade for any lip pencil that I could find to my natural lip colour. I do have pretty pigmented lips, and most "nude" or "natural" lip pencils shades were all too brown and/or dark for me.
The colour Rose is a great nude colour, it is slightly more pinker than my lips, but if you apply a gloss or a lipstick over it the difference isn't noticeable. The formula is nice a smooth, you don't have to use a lot of pressure to get the colour pay off. The lip pencil is a normal size, so any makeup sharpener will work for it. I find that the lip liner does have a good longevity to it, but again that would depend on if you are eating or drinking and what not.
I like the sleek look of the pencil and the colour it has on the back to indicate the colour is great when you store the pencil (you know exactly what colour your picking up). NYX cosmetics once again is a great affordable price. This is a lip liner that I would recommend, there is also a large selection of shades.
Smooth and Sultry
This lip liner from Nyx is a great buy! It is less than $4 USD and they have a large selection of colors. I love this product because it is easy to use, and glides on the lips effortlessly. Also, it does not need to be sharpened so often. I can use the liner 4 times, including filling in my lips, without sharpening. Great product!

A website created by three admins that have been ousted from MaddoxMania for trying to keep the order and a fourth unknown person. While one admin has been pretty much overthrown for trying to keep things going well and the members not really catching on (Yellie), the other two (Jesus Christ and Zoghade) stepped down of their own free will because of the nature of the members at MM. As a result, TBFPITU was created as a place for people to go that have noticed the gradual degeneration of MM and wish to talk in a more organized, civilized, and less spammy atmosphere. Though small in number for members thus far, numbers are not the true sign of a forum; quality is.
Today, I checked The Best Fanpage in the Universe, and they had a new news article to keep me informed on maddox's recent activity with his website.

One of my contributions to Hysterical Minds' 10th release "Symphony", a collection of artworks inspired in music. This time, I decided to represent visually "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd.
We see our world getting rotten and destroyed, but we are already brainwashed by the mass media and all the comforts that capitalism brings to us. We are mere spectators of our own destruction.
Own resources, the rest from sxc and deposit photos.
