"Toxic Europe" is the winner of the Best International Organised Crime Report Award 2011 (BIOCR) and is produced by FLARE network, Associazione Ilaria Alpi, Novaya Gazeta, dailyblog.it (now Abruzzonews.it) and the Associazione di Giornalismo Investigativo (AGI).
The aim of the documentary is to uncover and show the quantities, the mechanisms, and the flows of the illegal hazardous waste trafficking in Europe. A business that, for the past 20 years, has been one of the main sources of profit of Italian organised crime within their own country, and that now is spreading, following the globalised economy fashion, throughout the rest of Europe.
Our investigation hypothesis is that a combination of phenomenons contributed to this expansion. The search for new clients, new transport routes and new illegal dumping sites, together with the growing of difficulties that Mafia found in trafficking waste to developing countries, turned Europe into a ping-pong table where tons of hazardous waste are moving around without proper control.
"Toxic Europe" is co-produced by FLARE network, Premio Ilaria Alpi, Novaya Gazeta, the online paper www.dailyblog.it. The Associazione di Giornalismo Investigativo collaborated with the investigation.
The Television Journalist Award dedicated to the memory of Ilaria Alpi was born to give recognition and celebrate the work of those committed to television investigative journalism on the issues of peace and solidarity.
To promote a deeper and better understanding of the complexity of the facts and worlds that surround us.
To support the need for intelligent information, capable of an in-depth analysis of facts and focusing on them rather than on viewership.
To eventually disclose and, always, report every possible truth.
The Associazione di Giornalismo Investigativo was born three years ago with the aim of contributing to the development of a model of journalism oriented towards accurate and well researched analysis of social and political facts.
For this reason, the AGI has developed formative paths, organising in 2007 the first MA in investigative journalism and documentary sources analysis, now at its 5th edition.
DailyBlog.it is one of the most read online Italian papers, it covers current affairs and is also editor of a number of investigations.
FLARE Network is a network of civil society organisations committed to the social struggle against transnational organised crime. Founded in 2008, it is composed of 38 NGOs from 25 countries across Europe, Mediterranean basin,
Russian Federation, Caucasus and the Balkans.
Novaya Gazeta is the independent Russian paper where Anna Politkovskaya worked.

In an effort to further combat illegal fishing, WildAid conducted a marine enforcement assessment of two No-Take Zones (NTZs) in Southeast Misool, Indonesia, one of the most biologically diverse areas on the planet. The report provides concrete recommendations to strengthen operations, improve compliance, and lower operational costs.
Today, Mr. Huang Nubo and Ms. Wei Xue joined WildAid to premiere China's first Public Service Announcement in which leading CEOs call on the business community to "say no to shark fin soup."
The PSA features Mr. Huang Nubo (Chairman, Beijing Zhongkun Investment Group), Mr. Feng Lun (Chairman, Beijing Vantone Real Estate), Mr. Li Dongsheng (Chairman, TCL Corporation), Mr. Hu Baosen (Chairman, Jianye Real Estate Development), and Ms. Wei Xue (Founder, PRAP China).
WildAid is currently constructing a $35,000 patrol vessel for Daram MPA to strengthen enforcement both within Daram and Batbitim MPAs.
Today, Calgary Alderman Brian Pincott made public a proposed bylaw to ban shark fin products, coinciding with the release of an opinion poll showing that 88% of respondents stating an opinion were supportive of such a move.
"The motion by Alderman Pincott is the latest positive step in the growing campaign to end this unsustainable trade," said Rob Sinclair, Executive Director of WildAid Canada. "This is yet another example of Canadian municipalities taking action to counter this global threat."

Hydrogen sulfide is the chemical compound with the formula H2S. It is a colorless gas with the characteristic foul odor of rotten eggs. It is heavier than air, very poisonous, corrosive, flammable, and explosive.
According to information from the Kenedy police department, at about 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, April 16, officers were dispatched to a maintenance facility at the 1300 block of Escondido Street.
When the arrived, officers were told by employees at the facility that fumes and smoke were seen coming from a trailer at the facility that was there for repairs. The trailer had been in use for oil and gas related work.
"At that time they evacuated the immediate area," said Kenedy Police Chief Duane DuBose.
The Kenedy Volunteer Fire Department was dispatched to the scene and put on protective gear and clothing to investigate the area.
Local businesses in the area were evacuated and traffic rerouted as a precautionary measure.
"The fire department did testing and determined that the scene was secure," DuBose said, noting that there were no unacceptably high levels of H2S or any other hazards at the scene.
There were no injuries or adverse affects to anyone as a result of the incident.

How to Throw a Frugal Fourth of July Party
Independence Day is quickly approaching, and Americans are either traveling or stocking up on patriotic décor. This is a great holiday to gather together, show appreciation to our great nation, celebrate and have some fun. If you've decided to host a party this year, don't break the bank doing it. Here are a few tips on how to throw a frugal Fourth of July party.
You don't have to buy every red, white and blue item in a store to have your party look nice and patriotic. The "less is more" philosophy can definitely pertain to decorations as well. So, hit up your local dollar store for plastic table covers, balloons, confetti, paper supplies, etc. – stick to the color scheme of course, and get creative. You'd be surprised what you can find for a dollar.
If you'd like to add some special touches to your party, get crafty and search for easy DIY projects. Pinterest is a great place to start, or try to make these simple sand candles for centerpieces from DIY queen Martha Stewart.
Another fun way to save on decorations is to have the food and drinks be the focus. Awe your guests with patriotic pastries and desserts and mingle with them over red, white and blue cocktails.
Backyard barbecues can get expensive if you're serving up steaks and burgers for several guests. Stick to the simple and inexpensive option – hot dogs. You may also encourage guests to contribute by taking a side, soft drinks or their own beer, they won't have a problem with it, and you won't have to take on all of the expenses on your own.
Set up a Slip 'n Slide, some neat DIY star shaped bubble wands or other inexpensive entertainment for the kids while the adults mingle.
If your city doesn't have a restriction on fireworks have your guests take their own sets, as it can be very expensive. If you would like to provide the big finish, look for a firework warehouse since they usually provide better deals.
If your city has a ban on fireworks, you can celebrate with different alternatives. Streamers and confetti would be fun, or try these balloon fireworks. Most cities will host an amazing firework display, so you can arrange for your Fourth of July party to finish off the night with great entertainment provided by your city.

Homeschooling: The Early Years: Your Complete Guide to Successfully…
by Linda Dobson
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This might be a useful book for home schooling; I only read the first chapter. It's a little evangelical about home schooling but seems useful once you get past that. (Presumably, if you're reading this, you've already made up your mind)
I was excited to read this book which is for homeschooling ages 3-8 because of course I've started basic homeschooling with my 21 month old and wanted to be ready for more instruction when my child gets older.
However I must say this book didn't live up to my expectations. The best part of the book was the ideas on teaching Reading, Writing and 'Rithmetic and the books and websites listed in the resources at the back of each chapter. The information itself is pretty good but the writing style is a little nonsensical. I don't feel the author stayed on the topic she was talking about in each section.
The book is based on the results of a questionnaire of 66 homeschooling parents. Each section is talked about based on the results and quotes are given from the different parents about the subjects. I enjoyed the quotes directly from homeschooling families as I think this is the best advice you can get. (ie. directly from the source.) Although some of the statistics were interesting, a lot of it wasn't very much help.
I wouldn't recommend this book as a first one to turn to about homeschooling but if you have read quite a few already and want some ideas on teaching the early years, then pick up this book. All the more if it's from the library. I did copy down quite a few books from the resources that I'd like to read and although some of the websites were no longer available (as is expected since the web changes so frequently) there were some good ones listed that I know have bookmarked.
The book is packed with lots of great ideas for energizing lessons. I'll be referring to this for awhile.
I liked the familiar approach where the challenges of homeschooling young children are discussed in the context of describing how different families did it.
#83, 2006
I think I've now officially read all the "new to homeschooling" material that I need to read. In fact, I think this book was one book too many. It was a good book, focusing less on logistics and detailed advice, and more on dealing with emotions and common issues that come up when deciding to homeschool and throughout the first year. From that stand point, it was reasonably inspirational – lots about trusting yourself and your child, remembering that it takes a while to get into the swing of things. That sort of thing, which is definitely worthwhile information, although I think I'm mostly past needing that sort of pep talk (although who knows how I'll feel a month from now). :D
I did get a couple of good tips here, but most of the information was, for me, a repeat of things I've read in other books. Still, for someone just getting started, I wouldn't dissuade you from reading this book. In my case, though, I'd already read enough similar material to make this one a bit redundant.

KEY LARGO, Florida, November 15. COLLEGIATE swimmers and future Olympians are set to compete in the Orange Bowl Swimming Classic Thursday, Jan. 3, at the Jacobs Aquatic Center, mile marker 99.6 oceanside in Key Largo.
Part of a monthlong Orange Bowl training session held each year in the Keys, the classic hosts some of the nation's finest competitors. The sprint-style meet features 20 fast-paced swimming events measured by a state-of-the-art timing system.
Of more than a dozen college teams scheduled to attend winter training, eight are slated to compete in the swimming classic including George Mason University from Fairfax, Va.; University of Michigan from Ann Arbor, Mich., and Dartmouth College from Hanover, N.H.
Some notable 2012 Olympians have either trained at the Jacobs Aquatic Center swimming facility or participated in the Orange Bowl Swim Classic. They include top women's swimming medalist Missy Franklin (four gold, one bronze), three-time swimming medalist Nathan Adrian and freestyle swimmers Kate Ziegler and George Bovell who represented Trinidad and Tobago at the London games.
"Key Largo is quickly becoming a much sought-after place for training," said Dr. Jim Boilini, event chairman, who also serves on the board of directors of the Jacobs Aquatic Center.
"Key Largo's weather, a first-class training facility, the community's embrace and the lure of the Orange Bowl is a great combination," Boilini said.
The competition is expected to start at 2 p.m. and continue until 4 p.m. Admission is free to watch.
A post-contest awards social and dinner are set to commence at the Jacobs Aquatic Center following the meet. Spectators who reserve ahead can attend the dinner and interact with the swimmers and coaches.

This cigarette campaign is one of the few which presents the term "natural" as a negative; in recent decades, tobacco companies, such as Santa Fe Natural Tobacco Company, have steered toward campaigns hawking their brands as additive-free and all-natural. In the 1930s, however, Lucky Strike took a different approach, claiming that the natural state of cigarettes was the dangerous state, while the toasting process would rid the tobacco of "black, bitingly harsh irritant chemicals" (see Lucky Strike's "Sheep Dip" campaign). Though the tactic seems different, the goal was the same: to convince consumers that a particular brand of cigarettes is healthier and safer.
This advertising campaign, claiming that "nature in the raw is seldom mild," was an attempt to sell consumers on the Lucky Strike "toasting" process. Most of the advertisements from this campaign featured an ad artist's rendition of a savage act of history, and many of the illustrations condemned Native Americans, presenting them as primitive.
The events depicted in the ads range from "The Fort Dearborn Massacre," illustrated by N.C. Wyeth, to "The Raid on the Sabine Women," illustrated by Saul Tepper. Other ads from this series featured depictions of perceived savage beasts, including lions and tigers. One of the ads in our collection identifies the lion as "the king of beasts" and the "ruler of the African jungle" due to his "brute force and savage cunning." All of these ads are meant to exemplify the campaign slogan, "nature in the raw is seldom mild." The ad copy compares these brutal acts, people, and animals to tobacco - harsh and deadly when plucked directly from nature, and in desperate need of intervention in order to become safe. Logically, the consumer is led to believe that the tobacco would otherwise be deadly, but due to the toasting process, the brand is no longer harsh or harmful - a complete falsehood, of course.

anyone's baby fall from bed
My baby fell from my bed (about 3 feet high) the other day, my older daughter was watching her and turned around, just them my 7 month old rolled off bed. She cried immediately for about 2 minutes, then stopped. No other symptoms but I feel just horrible. Did this happen to anyone else? My friends tell me their babys fell too and she is okay.

Exact same thing with same age baby, same height bed. Most falls 3 feet and under are unlikely to cause serious injury. I took her to the ER just to be safe. They checked all limbs for full rotation, checked to see if she was tender anywhere, and checked to make sure pupils responded to light normally. Advice from ER doctor was to watch her for vomiting, diarrhea, extreme behavior changes, and eating changes for three weeks. Advice from our regular pediatrician was that if she vomits (not spits up, their words were "empties the contents of her stomach") twice in the three days following the fall, go to the ER right away. Also, if she was inconsolable during the three days after the fall, go to the doctor. Lesson learned, baby hangs out on lower surfaces these days. Also, while in the ER, EVERYONE told me the stories of their babies falling because I was so upset about it - the doctor, the triage nurse, a second nurse, and the lady who takes payments.posted 02/06/2008 by BrighSpot
To the witch who said "Anyone every heard of a crib?" : You must be mother of the year and never make mistakes. You must never ever change your child's diaper on the bed or play with her on the bed or anything else dangerous. You probably look down upon women who don't use cloth diapers or organic baby food. Every tired mom makes mistakes. What a witchy answer to give to other mothers.posted 06/07/2008 by WendOlsn
Yes, it happened once with my oldest and in fact, just this morning with my 7 month old. I actually think she scooted backwards off the bed. Landed like a cat - on all fours. I couldn't get there fast enough. She was more scared than anything else. But she is fine. Just make sure you check arms and legs for full mobility, torso for anything tender that she cries about, and head as well. I feel horrible too. But everyone told me the same thing. Don't beat yourself up. It's tough to try and do all that moms do.posted 01/14/2008 by JoMommy03
Yesterday my husband and I were at a restraunt we were finished eating but my 2-month old had just finished a bottle and we were waiting on the check. Well she spit up all over her dad (which is nothing new) so he went to put her in her carrier so he could clean both of them up, needless to say the carrier fell off the bench and she went with it. She started screaming immediately. The fall was only about a foot and a half but she hit her head on the handle of the carrier. We called our doctor and she said that as long as she didnt vomit and moved her neck arms and legs normally she would be fine. Also keep an eye on the soft spot as long as it doesnt start protuding your in good shape. She also said to try and keep her awake for about an hour or the next feeding if that was possible. She is fine now and our doctor even said that even though she is young she has a strong and flexible bone structure.posted 02/10/2008 by gatorred05
My 7 month old baby fell from the bed this morning! I put him on our bed and went to get a book to read to him. Next thing I hear is a "thump" and I rushed over to see him on the floor on his back. I flipped out. He was screaming and crying and I was screaming and crying. I took him right away to the ER where they actually directed me to a minor injuries clinic. The doc checked him out and said he looked fine and to watch him for the next 24 hours for any signs such as pupil dilation, vomiting, abnormal behavior, swelling on his head, bruising on his head, swelling of the soft spot on his head, etc. Then he also said to not let him sleep longer than 2 hours for the next 24 hours. And at night, to wake him up every 2 hours and check his pupils. I feel like the worst mother in the world but it's good to read all these other stories and know I am not alone and just made a mistake. I will never do it again! But just know that it happens and thankfully your baby (and mine!) are ok. :)posted 06/04/2009 by JennaJ
My 5 week old is very strong. yesterday morning I was switching sides so that he would be comfterable while i gave him a bottle he used his legs and pushed off my chest before i could realize what he did he fell out of my arms about a 3 foot drop I took him to the ER they said he was fine and that babies skulls are so flexiable that they abosrbe falls better then adults becasue their skulls arnt fused if there is any swelling it doesn't press up against the skull like an adults they told me to watch his soft spot on his head to make sure that it doesn't become hard and the same as everyone else to watch for behaivor changes changes in his crying vomitting and diharria he seems to be doing alright thoughposted 06/19/2008 by armyvetmom2be
OH thank goodness. I am a mother of a 2.5 yr old and a 7month old. My 7month old has fallen on few occasions recntly and being as how its been almost 2.5 yrs since ive had an actual tiny baby around I have been tearing myself up inside about him falling and feeling like bad mother. Then I remember that accidents happen and every mother goes through things like this its a part of life along with learning to live with children. I commend everyone for replying to this because as mothers we have to be strong and support each other and take the experience and learn from it. To the person who said "ever heard of crib" who are you to judge so many mothers who are obviously just as human as you for being ignorant? Thank you all for helping me to realize that these things happen in life, i feel so much better.posted 03/30/2009 by infatuationhh
i am so glad this is up, my baby 6months just fell for the first time and i feel so awful i just keep picturing what he looked like before i picked him up.posted 03/13/2009 by lucys1024
Thank you so much to everybody for sharing your stories! My own 7-mo-old (seems to be a trend) rolled off of my bed this morning. He is fine, small bump and scratch on his head. He landed in a crawling position and has been his normal self for a couple of hours now. I laid him there to open the windows and turned my back for just a moment and I feel so horrible. It was a great relief to read that I am not alone!posted 11/10/2009 by kc24wa
My daughter fell out of the bed on more than one occasion. 5 times that I recall. Of these times she was asleep. I remember washing dishes one day and suddenly hearing her scream. So, my intial WRONG reaction was... AAAAhhhhhhh MY BABY!!! So we screamed together. I learned to stay calm. I was petrified. However, she was and still is ok. You really have to watch them. She is going to be 1 on Mother's Day and she worries me so much. It only takes her two seconds to make a move. I try to keep on the floor and out of the way of anything dangerous. It works better that way. I work two jobs and I got to school full time. Therefore, sometimes, its hard to keep up with her.posted 05/05/2008 by tipsy2045

Mother & Son Fear Factor
January 31, 2006 12:01 AM by Joe Blackmon
MOTHER AND SON FEAR FACTOR– "YOU THINK I DID THIS ON PURPOSE?"– In this special episode of "Fear Factor," mothers and sons will compete together for $50,000. First, the mothers must stand on their son's shoulders while balancing on a tiny ledge 100 feet in the air. Then, the teams must navigate through a kitchen filled with biting snakes and disgusting obstacles.
Finally, in the most emotionally explosive stunt ever, watch as these mother/son teams race down a freeway and secure their cars underneath a moving semi-truck before climbing out of the sunroof to traverse the side of the truck.
This week's Home Invasion takes host Joe Rogan to Ontario, California where he surprises yet another unsuspecting family with a "Fear Factor" challenge of their own. Fear Factor airs on Tuesday, January 31, 2006 at 8:00P.M. ET on NBC.

Fatherhood pays bonus! Men who have children earn almost up to 19 per cent more than their childless counterparts by the age of 40, according to a new study.
Analysis by the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) also found that mothers suffer a "pay penalty" - with incomes up to 14 per cent less than women who do not have children.
According to the statistics, fathers win a "pay bonus" as their salaries are likely to be almost a fifth higher than men who do not have children, 'The Telegraph' reported.
The study shows although women have made substantial progress in the workplace over the past three decades, with the "gender pay gap" between men and women in their 20s having almost disappeared, having children can set them back professionally.
It also suggests that younger women who give birth earlier will pay more of a penalty than those born a decade previously.
IPPR believes that men who become fathers increase their earning capacity because they feel a greater responsibility towards being a breadwinner for their families and compensating, in some cases, for their partners' reduced earnings.
Many employers are said to value fatherhood because it is thought to make male staff more responsible and loyal - putting them at the top of the queue for promotions.
The IPPR studied two cohorts of men and women - born in 1958 and 1970. Mothers born in 1958 earned on average 14 per cent less by the time whey were 40 than childless women born in the same year.
Mothers born in 1970 typically earned 11 per cent less than their childless female colleagues by the time they reached their late 30s.
The research showed that historic inequalities in pay between the sexes meant a mother born in 1958 could expect to earn 32 per cent less, by the time she was 40, than a father born in the same year.
In contrast with mothers, fathers born in 1958 were likely to earn 16 per cent more, again by the age of 40, than men without children. For those born in 1970, the "increase" had risen to 19 per cent.
"We were surprised to find a 'fatherhood pay bonus'. With dads in the UK tending to work long hours and many fathers still seeing themselves as breadwinners, they may be working longer to make up for their partners working fewer hours," Dalia Ben-Galim, associate director of the IPPR, said.

The F1 landscape is littered with the bones of "well funded factory teams" that couldnt cut it, with the traditional teams that know how to go GP racing regularly out-performing them.
Toyota, Honda, Jaguar (Ford), even Renault, & so far Mercedes all failed in recent years ... & in most cases achieved far more success once the same designers / mechanics / engineers / drivers / etc were free of the big corporate shackles & began operating as independent race teams.

My Mu P8 makes a (sort of) metallic squeaking noise which I think is coming from the frame hinge. The noise happens even when I'm just walking the bike so it has no load on it. I've adjusted the frame latch so it's not loose but I do notice some bare metal showing where paint has worn off on the contact points of the frame-ends.
Is there anything I can adjust or is the frame latch worn or faulty? The bike is less than 2 years old and has done less than 1000 commuting miles.

Donald Trump Sells Hundred Million Dollar House
June 21, 2008 06:53 AM by Joe Reality
Not everybody's hurting from the declining real estate market. Proving once again that the easiest way to make money is to start with a lot of money, Donald Trump has just unloaded a Florida mansion for $100 million dollars.
The recently sold mansion is called the Maison de L'Amitie (when a house is worth a hundred million bucks it qualifies to have its own name) and is approximately 80,000 square feet. Trump originally listed the mansion for sale at $125 million.
The Donald paid $41 million for the home in 2004. Of course, Trump also put a reported additional $25 million into fixing up the home, so his net profit was only somewhere in the neighborhood of $34 Million. As reality TV fans might remember, Apprentice winner Kendra Todd was assigned the renovation job on the house.
Reports surfaced awhile back that the house had been sold, but it was only recently revealed who the buyer was. The lucky new home owner is an investment company owned by a Russian billionaire named Dmitry Rybolovlev, who made his money in fertilizer. It's doubtful if Dmitry will ever actually move into the house, because some reports suggest that he might tear it down in order to subdivide the 6.3 acre beachfront property.
The $100 million dollar sale is just the latest in what looks to be shaping up to be a good year for The Donald. Earlier this year, Trump rejuvenated his reality TV series The Apprentice with a much praised and highly rated celebrity edition. The Celebrity Apprentice is scheduled to return to NBC for a second season early next year.

No romantic past for children
There has never been a time in human history better for children than the era in which we currently live. In a Western culture like ours that worships children and idolizes youth, the low social status of children in antiquity seems foreign. Given the reality of the Greco-Roman world, it makes Judeo-Christian teaching on children and parenting a powerful counter-cultural witness.
In his book When Children Became People: The Birth of Childhood in Early Christianity, O.M. Bakke reminds us that in the Greco-Roman world children were considered the lowest form of human beings. The social pecking order went something like this: free male citizens, women, older men, slaves, barbarians, and then . . . finally . . . children. This was because it was believed that children had the least capacity, among all others, for logos---that is, word, speech, and reason.
Children symbolized the absence of logos. The idea that they lack reason is consistently found in sources ranging from the time of Homer to that of Cicero. Bakke recalls a popular Greek aphorism that said, "Old men are like children once more." In both Platonic and Aristotelian thought, the opinions of children were seen as no more of a consequence than those of animals. To refer to an adult as a child was to issue a major insult.
Moreover, to call someone a "boy" in the Greco-Roman world was perceived as an egregious insult because children were associated with stupidity: pueritia amentia. This is a very interesting point considering the way in which white Southerner's routinely and publicly referred to blacks as "boy" from time of chattel slavery through the 1960s. Is it possible that the South retained much of the Greco-Roman perspective on children? If so, to call a black man "boy" was more than an assault on his masculinity; it was also an assault on his dignity.
The Romans also were particularly dismissive of children because they were physically weak, vulnerable, and exposed to sickness. Given the mortality rate in the Greco-Roman world, it is not too surprising that children became symbols of human weakness. Children also were not valued because they were seen as lacking courage and subsequently became a symbol for human fear. In fact, Cicero made a well-known point that it is difficult to find any reason to praise a child for his inherent qualities.
This is the cultural context in which Jews in the Greco-Roman world lived before and during the time of Jesus. Many may find this understanding of children sheds new light on Jewish and Christian teachings on value of a child. Respecting the dignity of a child in antiquity was socially counter-cultural. This is a reminder that the good ol' days may not have been that good after all.

How Eric Dane Went From Playing McSteamy To A Navy Badass
By Nick Venable 2 years ago comments
For an actor, getting typecast into a specific character role can be a career death knell. One guy who doesnt really have to worry about that is Eric Dane, perhaps best known to the masses as Dr. Mark McSteamy Sloan, one of the often stubbled doctors of ABCs Greys Anatomy. Dane has left the hospital world behind for the high seas, where hes commanding a gigantic Navy ship for the action-packed TNT drama The Last Ship, which debuts this weekend. But how, with all of his chiseled features and stoic presence, did it take him this long to lead an action project? According to Dane, whom I had the pleasure of speaking with at a recent Last Ship press event, it was simply a matter of having someone ask him.
I just dont think the opportunities were out there for me, he said. I spent seven years on Greys Anatomy. Thats something of an anomaly for an actor to spend that much time playing one character. And this was the first opportunity really since leaving that show that I had to do something like this.
Though Dane started his career in bit roles on sitcoms like Saved by the Bell and Roseanne, he quickly shifted into more dramatic fare, with roles on series like Gideons Crossing, where he also played a doctor, and Charmed. His film career also started to take off, appearing as Multiple Man in Brett Ratners X-Men: The Last Stand, the same year he wrapped the stethoscope around his neck as Dr. Sloan. But that (admittedly limited) action hero role was followed by more dramas and hunky dude roles in Valentines Day and Burlesque. With blockbuster maker Michael Bay as producer, The Last Ship truly is a departure for Dane.
On the USS Nathan James, the last ship in question, Dane plays Commander Tom Chandler, a clean-faced, no-nonsense hardass who is forced to make some impossible decisions as he balances the fate of the world with the fate of the men and women under his authority. While his crew, including Fireflys Adam Baldwin and Friday the 13ths Travis Van Winkle, has been out performing war games scenarios with zero outside communications, the entire planet has fallen victim to a deadly pathogen, and over 80% of Earths population has been killed. As its said in the pilot, Chandler is not only working for the United States now, but for all of mankind. No pressure.
When I asked him to compare the life-saving mindset of this role and his Greys Anatomy doc, Dane said, Im much more comfortable being responsible for the world than I was being responsible for one life. The sign of a true leader? I think so. But it helps that he had Bay and the U.S. Navy guiding him along his way.
Nobody does action better than Michael, Dane said. His eye for the aesthetic is like second to none. And youll be able to recognize Bays fingerprints all over this show, as it is chock-full of action sequences, explosions, and fun character chemistry. I, for one, am really hoping that this show leads to Dane heading up one of Bays next movies. Preferably something with non-transforming human characters.
And when it comes to Dane giving The Last Ship the proper military treatment, I dont think anyone has to worry, as the actor said the show was immersed in Navy crewmen, saying they were there with us every step of the way making sure we get it right every single time. While I have no Navy experience or anything, it certainly looked official enough to me, and the Navy officers that I watched the pilot with were in full support of everything happening on screen.
Heres hoping Danes dream role here will push him into a bigger and more ass-kicking career. (His next feature is John Shea's killer thriller The Grey Lady.) For now, though, were perfectly happy watching him boss around Adam Baldwin, with whom Dane has a running gin rummy card game. Can we get a behind-the-scenes DVD feature about this card game, TNT?!?
Catch all of the zooming and booming when The Last Ship debuts on TNT this Sunday, June 22. Consider it an order.

The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) invites applications to the Digital Humanities Start-Up Grants program. This program is designed to encourage innovations in the digital humanities. By awarding relatively small grants to support the planning stages, NEH aims to encourage the development of innovative projects that promise to benefit the humanities.
Proposals should be for the planning or initial stages of digital initiatives in any area of the humanities. Digital Humanities Start-Up Grants may involve:
- research that brings new approaches or documents best practices in the study of the digital humanities;
- planning and developing prototypes of new digital tools for preserving, analyzing, and making accessible digital resources, including libraries' and museums' digital assets;
- scholarship or studies that examine the philosophical or practical implications and impact of the use of emerging technologies in specific fields or disciplines of the humanities, or in interdisciplinary collaborations involving several fields or disciplines;
- innovative uses of technology for public programming and education utilizing both traditional and new media; and
- new digital modes of publication that facilitate the dissemination of humanities scholarship in advanced academic as well as informal or formal educational settings at all academic levels.
Innovation is a hallmark of this grant category. All applicants must propose an innovative approach, method, tool, or idea that has not been used before in the humanities. These grants are modeled, in part, on the "high risk/high reward" paradigm often used by funding agencies in the sciences. NEH is requesting proposals for projects that take some risks in the pursuit of innovation and excellence.
Digital Humanities Start-Up Grants should result in plans, prototypes, or proofs of concept for long-term digital humanities projects prior to implementation.
Two levels of awards will be made in this program: Level I and Level II.
Level I awards are small grants designed to fund brainstorming sessions, workshops, early alpha-level prototypes, and initial planning. In addition to early planning towards an innovative prototype, Level I proposals should identify a problem or research question, explore a research agenda, or discover appropriate methodologies or technologies. Outcomes for Level I projects would likely include reports, position papers, and plans for subsequent steps and future research or development. Level I projects may also fund conferences or workshops addressing specific topics related to the impact of technology on the humanities. Proposals should include specific plans for broad dissemination of project outcomes.
Level II awards are larger grants that can be used for more fully-formed projects that are ready to begin implementation or demonstrate proofs of concept. Level II proposals should therefore include a more articulated plan of work leading to concrete and tangible outcomes, such as working prototypes, test beds, or demonstration projects. Applicants must state in their narrative which funding level they seek. Applicants should carefully choose the funding level appropriate to the needs of the proposed project. See Section II, Award Information, for more details.
- projects that mainly involve digitization, unless the applicant is proposing an innovative method for digitization;
- the creation or conversion of a scholarly journal (however, the exploration of or planning for new models of scholarly publication is allowed);
- the implementation or assessment of existing digital applications in the humanities (however, exploration of or planning for a new direction or tool for an established project is allowed);
- recurring or established conferences or professional meetings;
- acquisition of computer equipment or software in excess of 20 percent of the grant total;
- creative or performing arts;
- empirical social scientific research;
- work undertaken in the pursuit of an academic degree;
- the preparation or publication of textbooks;
- projects that seek to promote a particular political, religious, or ideological point of view; or
- projects that advocate a particular program of social action.

Swords & Soldiers is now available for a much larger audience. The humble WiiWare game that previously found its way onto the PS3 has now continued its march and conquered Windows and Macs. If you've got $9.99 to spare, you could join the Viking, Aztec and Chinese armies as they march to greatness against 30 opponent-filled levels.
The computer version of Swords & Soldiers is most similar to the PS3 incarnation. It's in HD, so it'll look spectacular on your screen, has 20 Steam achievements, has three challenge modes and allows you to take part in multiplayer matches. Sounds like a good adaptation so far, but we'll have to see how it works in practice once it unlocks on Steam in a few hours.
The move to Windows and Mac isn't the only big news coming from Ronimo. The PS3 version of Swords & Soldiers has been updated. Next time you play, there'll be a patch available that will make the game compatible with the PlayStation Move controller. So you'll be able to play it just like computer and Wii gamers will play their versions – with a cursor!
Watch the new demo and how PlayStation Move controls work in Swords & Soldiers:
If you don't own Swords & Soldiers and have a PS3, you may want to check out the newly updated demo. It also has PlayStation Move controls, for people who like that kind of thing, and some extra content to give people a better idea of what the full game is like.

At a time when the fragile gains for civil liberties in the Middle East appear to be unraveling and Israel remains under political attack and looming physical threat, there is a tendency to take a magnifying glass to the immediate crisis.
But Israel is not the sum of the 24-hour news cycle. Twenty-first Century Israel is a triumph of human spirit and intellect under pressure. Like every country, it grapples with economic, social and moral issues and some political pushing and shoving as well. Yet unlike many other countries, Israel's vibrant democracy gives voice to its citizens, and its government listens.
The Jewish Policy Center is pleased to offer this spring edition of inFOCUS Quarterly as an antidote to tunnel vision. Israel is focused on its future and we are too. Major natural gas finds will make Israel an energy exporter, and David Wurmser of Delphi Global Analysis Group addresses the impact on Israel's relations with Europe, Asia, and Russia. Avi Mayer, Director of New Media at The Jewish Agency, describes Israel's contributions to international health and welfare, and Ambassador Yoram Ettinger discusses the impact of Israel's strong economy and technology revolution. And, because security remains on the table Yossi Kuperwasser, Director General of the Ministry of Strategic Affairs, looks at Israel's strategic challenges.
Don't miss our one-on-one interview with Israel's ambassador to the United States, Michael Oren. He discusses the U.S.-Israel relationship, how Israel's security calculus has changed since the two years of Middle East upheaval, and he explains what is necessary to forge ahead in peace process.

MTU, Rolls-Royce Designing Gen-Sets For Royal Navy
Propulsion system will include four MTU gen-sets, Rolls-Royce gas turbine
Tognum subsidiary MTU Friedrichshafen GmbH and Rolls-Royce have jointly received a contract to design the diesel generator sets for the Royal Navy's future Type 26 global combat ship.
The propulsion system will consist of a combination of four MTU diesel gen-sets powered by Type 20V 4000 M53B engines, and a Rolls-Royce Type MT30 gas turbine.
The future Type 26 Global Combat Ship will employ a combined diesel electric or gas turbine (CODLOG) configuration. The diesel generators supply electric power for the onboard systems and for vessel propulsion in cruising mode. The Rolls-Royce gas turbine can be switched in for high-speed propulsion whenever need.
For naval applications, the MTU gen-sets have double-resilient mounting systems and are housed within acoustic enclosures, creating a propulsion system with an extremely low level of acoustic emissions, making the ship difficult to locate.


text: Photo Gallery Pictures: Prehistoric Whale "Graveyard" Found in Desert In what's now Chilean desert, 20 whales died five million years ago. Experts are brushing away sands of time to find out why. PUBLISHED December 9, 2011 0 1 / 6 Stone in Cast Scientists preserve a prehistoric adult whale skeleton's rib cage and tail in plaster in Chile's Atacama Desert in 2010. The fossil is 1 of 20 roughly five-million-year-old whales found in a roadside "graveyard" more than a half a mile (a kilometer) from the Pacific coast, experts announced late last month. It's unknown why the whales were found together, said the Smithsonian Institution's Nicholas Pyenson, lead paleontologist on the excavation. But possible reasons include a storm pushing them abruptly to shore, a red tide—a proliferation of microscopic organisms that release toxins in the water—poisoning them, and the whales beaching themselves in a group, said Pyenson, a grantee of the National Geographic Society's Committee for Research and Exploration. (The Society owns National Geographic News.) Getting to the bottom of the mystery requires careful preservation and examination, beginning with encasing the fossils in protective plaster "jackets" (as pictured) for the trip to the lab—a skill the team hadn't quite mastered by the time this picture was taken, Pyenson explained. Above, he said, "you can see the block containing the rib cage and the thinner segments capping the tail." (Photos: New Leviathan Whale Was Prehistoric "Jaws"?) —Angela Botzer Photograph from Museo Paleontologico de Caldera via AP Stick and Seal Scientists from the Museo Paleontologico de Caldera excavate and prepare part of a fossil baleen whale found in the prehistoric Chilean "graveyard," located at a site called Cerro Ballena ("whale hill"). Preservation includes piecing the skeleton together with special glue, then encasing the specimen in a plaster "jacket" for transport. The geology of the fossil site suggests the whales died in what was most likely a shallow lagoon five million years ago. "This environment is very similar to the small patches of sea grass communities found near the coast of Chile today," Pyenson said. (Related picture: "Whale Found in Egypt Desert.") Photograph from Museo Paleontologico de Caldera via AP Dolphins in the Midst Two-million-year-old fossil dolphin ear bones (pictured) were also collected near the fossil-whales site. The ear bones are among the local non-whale fossils that assist scientists in determining what ocean life was like during at the time the 20 whales died. Dolphin ear bones "are among the densest biological tissues, a feature that increases their preservation potential in the fossil record," Pyenson said. The ear bone specimens suggest the sea in the area—long since vanished—hosted dolphin species still living today, from the family Delphinidae, which includes bottlenose dolphins and killer whales. Photograph courtesy Nicholas D. Pyenson Roadside Attraction Pictured facing the camera, this relatively complete fossil baleen whale was excavated from the Cerro Ballena site in 2010. The orientation of the whales' bodies in relation to the prehistoric coastline—which is, for now, a mystery—may someday tell us a bit about how they all ended up in one place, according to Pyenson. If the skeletons are essentially parallel to what was then the shoreline, the whales may have died offshore and floated in on the tide. But if the whales are randomly oriented, he added, their deaths may have been due a storm or other event, and they might not have died at the same time. (See whale-fossil pictures from National Geographic magazine.) Photograph from Museo Paleontologico de Caldera via AP Desert Blackout In a makeshift studio in the Atacama Desert, Smithsonian Institution staff scan one of the fossil whales to make a 3-D digital model that can be analyzed back at the U.S. National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C. "We created a tent around the specimen because we wanted to use the high-resolution laser scanner and cut down on dust, wind, and exposure to the elements to create the most stable situation possible," Pyenson said. "It was an impressive tent, and built in a matter of hours, using wood posts, metal wire, and thick black felt." (Also see "Early Whales Gave Birth on Land, Fossils Reveal.") Photograph courtesy Nicholas D. Pyenson African Descendant? With its skull almost nosing the camera, a modern baleen whale skeleton emerges from the sands of the coast of Namibia."We think that the fossil baleen whales from the Cerro Ballena site are closely related to this one," Pyenson said.Such a connection would underscore the successful "design" of the baleen whales, which has evolved surprisingly little since 20 unfortunate giants met their end five million years ago on a long-gone Chilean shore.Next: whale-evolution interactive from National Geographic magazine >> Photograph courtesy Lisa Levin and Nicholas D.

Phone number located in Rotherham, United Kingdom.
Have been getting these calls most days for 3 weeks now. For the first week they called around 11, the second week between 3-5pm and this week its evening calls around 7. I'm finding it extremely irritating. I'm assuming its something to do with talk talk as I don't give my landline number to anybody except family.
This numbet rang this evening said that they noticed my number was registered to bt and they would like to buy it back. When I said I was happy with my service provider he said he could offer me some good deals at this point there was a woman cheering in the background of where ever he was calling from and he hung up. Do you know who this is?
I'm a 13 year old boy that picks up a phone to a man calling about a bt package. What was wierd is the fact he actually asked for me and not my mum which got me confused so I just hanged up
Being pestered daily by this number, no one there and if I do not answer do not leave message
This number keeps ringing my number when I answer no one is there or I just hear music. How can I get this number blocked from my phone?

This number rang me at 11.45 am Saturday June 28th 2014. They told me that it was time to renew my contract with BT and would I like to renew it now. I stalled and said that I did not think it was due for renewal, ( I have checked and I have paid my rental etc to March 2015); I gave him a hard time saying I was thinking of changing to TalkTalk and he tried to pressurise me by telling me the extra charges I would incur for BT sport, I said I did not want BT sport, after a bit more hard sell and my obstinacy he very curtly wished me a happy day and rang off. I have checked with BT and they had not rung me.

Tales from the Darkside is significantly gorier than its namesake TV series, and has better production values.
Tales from the Darkside is significantly gorier than its namesake TV series, and has better production values.Structure is a lift from Scheherazade in 1,001 Nights, as Deborah Harry prepares to cook little boy Matthew Lawrence, he delays his fate by telling her a trio of horror stories. Most ambitious segment, Beetlejuice writer Michael McDowell's Lover's Vow is saved for last: Gotham artist James Remar witnessing a barman's extremely gory murder by a gargoyle come to life. To save his skin he vows to the gargoyle not to tell anyone what happened, but after meeting beautiful Rae Dawn Chong, romancing her and marrying her, 10 years later he spills the beans with tragic results. Sexy and sinister Chong is a delight in this one. Other segments are more routine. George A. Romero's adaptation of a Stephen King story is punched up by casting David Johansen as a hit man assigned to kill a black cat by drug tycoon William Hickey. Curtainraiser is a corny but effective tale from the creator of Sherlock Holmes: college student Steve Buscemi bringing an ancient mummy back to life for revenge with ironic results.

Race Across the Sky II: Whaddya think?
- By VeloNews.com
- Published Nov. 5, 2010
- Updated Oct. 11, 2012 at 5:05 PM EDT
Thursday night was the national debut of the documentary on the Leadville Trial 100 mountain bike race — "Race Across the Sky II."
Unlike the 2009 film, this year's take on the LT 100 didn't focus on some guy named Lance beating some guy named Dave. Sure, the drama of the lung-busing elevation remains, as do the compelling human-interest stories.
Dave Wiens is still in the story, as are a host of newcomers to the race, including Levi Leipheimer, Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski, Todd Wells and Jeremiah Bishop.
So, what did ya think of the film? Did you go? Did you like it? Hate it? Inspired? Laugh? Cry?
Go ahead and channel your inner Siskel and Ebert. If you missed the first screening, there is a repeat showing on Nov. 9.
(And remember, this ain't a scientific poll!)

Papers and publications in the sciences and social or behavioral sciences typically use APA style. These types of papers often discuss health issues, so the "Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 6th Edition" gives specific guidelines for citing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC.
APA style requires you to write out the name of an organization in full the first time you use it in the body of the paper. Since the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is a long name and one that many of your readers should be familiar with, you will use the acronym CDC, with no periods between letters, for subsequent references to the organization throughout the body of the paper. You will not place the acronym in parentheses after the first mention of the whole name.
Pages on the CDC site or pieces published from the CDC may list no specific author. In these cases, you should use the CDC as the author of the piece on the references list and in-text citations. Spell out the entire name anywhere it appears on the References page, regardless of whether you indicate it as an author, publisher or name of a Web page. If you credit the CDC as an author, alphabetize the entry on the References list according to "Centers," the first word in the organization's name.
