The Battle Ground school district will hold a public hearing on its proposed budget for the coming school year at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at the old Lewisville Middle School, in building C.
The proposal district officials will present includes only minor changes over last year's budget, as the state didn't cut the money it sends to districts for the first time in many years.
Battle Ground Public Schools plans to spend $120.8 million this school year, about 1 percent more than it budgeted last year, said MaryBeth Lynn, assistant superintendent for finance and school operations. The district expects to take in about $121.5 million, which also is about a 1 percent increase.
It will use $150,000 of the budget surplus to pay down debts, and put $500,000 into its reserves to work toward bringing its fund balance up to 4 percent of the annual budget, Lynn said. The school board mandated that ongoing effort two years ago, after district savings accounts nearly had dipped to zero in the wake of a 2006 levy failure.
The district expects to end the next school year with a fund balance of about $1.5 million, which would be about 1.2 percent of the budget, Lynn said.
Battle Ground expects to educate 170 more students than it did last year, which means total enrollment would be nearly 12,500.
More students will require more teachers. Battle Ground is budgeting to add the equivalent of 18 full-time certificated employees, a term that includes teachers, principals and librarians.
That will bring the total number of certificated employees in the district to 809. Salaries for those workers will total $50.8 million. Teaching will take up 59.8 percent of all district expenditures next year.
Superintendent Shonny Bria will receive a salary of $154,700, same as last year, Lynn said.
All certificated employees, including the superintendent, will continue to work for a salary that the state slashed by 1.9 percent last year. The state didn't restore that cut for next year, and unions representing district employees agreed to maintain it, Lynn said.
Property owners living within the boundaries of the Battle Ground school district are estimated to pay about the same portion of their property taxes to schools as they are this year, which is $4.81 per $1,000 in property value. That includes payments toward the operations levy and construction bonds.

In 1832 Elliotson described a patient who had cold "fits" and passed bloody urine "whenever the east wind blew." Dressler in 1854 described a patient with congenital syphilis who had intermittent attacks of albuminuria and red urine. He recognized that the color of urine was due to free hemoglobin and not to red cells. These two early reports illustrate the main features of paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria—the occurrence of hemoglobinuria after chilling and the association of the disorder with syphilis.1 However, it was not until 1904 that the pathogenesis of the condition was delineated by Donath and Landsteiner.2 They demonstrated that the hemoglobinuria was caused by intravascular hemolysis induced by an autohemolysin in the patient's serum which combined with the red cell when the blood was chilled and produced hemolysis upon rewarming.
The following case of syphilitic paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria is of particular interest with respect to the severity

Stratfor Update On Gaza, Israel, And Hezbollah
Via Stratfor Global Intelligence,
Update On The Israel-Gaza Conflict
New intelligence indicates forces in Gaza may be manufacturing long-range rockets locally. If this is the case, a significant ground force offers the Israelis the best chance of finding and neutralizing the factories making these weapons. Meanwhile, Israel continues its airstrikes on Gaza, and Gaza continues its long-range rocket attacks on major Israeli population centers, though Israel claims its Iron Dome defense system has intercepted most of the rockets.
Israel appears to be positioning itself for a ground operation, perhaps as early as the night of Nov. 17. The Israeli Cabinet on Nov. 16 approved Defense Minister Ehud Barak's request to call up 75,000 reservists, significantly more than during Operation Cast Lead in 2008-2009. The Israeli army meanwhile has also sought to strengthen its presence on the borders with Gaza. Primary roads leading to Gaza and running parallel to Sinai have been declared closed military zones. Tanks, armored personnel carriers, self-propelled artillery and troops continue to stream to the border, and many units already appear to be in position.
During Operation Cast Lead, the Israelis transitioned to the ground phase around 8:00 p.m. on Jan. 3, 2009. Going in during dark hours allows the IDF to take advantage of its superior night-fighting equipment and training, including the use of night vision goggles and thermal optics.
The Israeli air force remained active throughout the night of Nov. 16-17, striking at targets across the Gaza Strip including key Hamas ministries, police stations and tunnels near the border crossing with Egypt. The IAF reportedly carried out strikes in Rafah's al-Sulan and al-Zahour neighborhoods, as well as east of the al-Maghazi refugee camp. According to IDF reports, the air force carried out a rapid and coordinated military strike, targeting approximately 70 underground medium-range rocket-launching sites in the less than an hour. The IDF claims direct hits were confirmed. The IAF will increasingly target Hamas militant defenses ahead of any ground invasion. Already the IAF has bombed militant defensive positions, particularly in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.
Meanwhile, Hamas and other militant factions in Gaza have been actively striking back at Israel. More than 80 rockets have been launched from Gaza over the past 24 hours. Of the rockets launched Nov. 17, approximately 57 landed in Israel. According to the IDF, a total of 640 rockets have been launched since Nov. 14, with 410 landing in Israel. A long-range rocket was fired from Gaza toward Tel Aviv at approximately 4:45 p.m. local time Nov. 17 but was successfully intercepted by the recently deployed Iron Dome anti-rocket defense system in the area. Hamas continues to target areas around Ashkelon, Ashdod and Beersheva, with the Iron Dome system intercepting five rockets over Ashkelon at 5:15 p.m. The majority of rockets launched from Gaza appear to be of shorter range than the Fajr-5. The IDF has stated its Iron Dome interceptors have so far successfully intercepted 90 percent of the rockets, though this may be an exaggeration.
One of the long-range rockets was intercepted by the newly installed Iron Dome battery in the Tel Aviv area. A Stratfor source has indicated that the rocket was not a Fajr-5, but was a locally manufactured long-range rocket in Hamas' arsenal.
If militants in Gaza are now able to locally manufacture their own long-range rockets that can target Tel Aviv and other major Israeli cities, it would be a worrisome development for Israel. Thus far, Israel has been able to focus its efforts on limiting the supply of these rockets to Gaza through interdiction efforts, such as the alleged Oct. 23 strike on the Yarmouk arms factory in Sudan. But if Palestinian militants can manufacture long-range rockets in Gaza, it will be much more difficult for Israel to restrict Gaza's inventory of these rockets. Beyond rocket launch sites and caches, which Israel is currently targeting with its airstrikes, it would need to target production sites and those who would be responsible for manufacturing the rockets.
Furthermore, it will be significantly harder for Israeli intelligence to form an accurate picture of the number of these rockets locally constructed in Gaza. We have already seen that Israeli intelligence likely did not anticipate how many long-range rockets had escaped its first wave of strikes, and the fact that Hamas may have been producing these weapons could explain Israel's lack of complete information.
Hamas recognizes that these long-range rocket attacks have only increased the likelihood and intensity of an Israeli ground incursion. A significant ground force offers the Israelis the best chance of finding and neutralizing the factories making these long-range rockets as well as the shorter-range Qassams. Hamas and the other militants therefore are actively preparing their defenses for the anticipated incursion and are likely laying improvised explosive devices, setting up road blocks and defensive emplacements and sorting out their ranks and tasks.
Hamas has already announced that its Al Murabiteen units, consisting of five brigades spread across Gaza, will be concentrated in the border region to limit Israeli penetration into the Gaza Strip. Learning from Hezbollah's example in 2006, special units of Hamas are relying heavily on tunnels to maintain communications. Should Israel be drawn into more densely populated areas of Gaza in pursuit of weapons storage and manufacturing facilities, Hamas has also reportedly prepared its suicide bombers, known as Istishadiyeen, to raise the cost for Israel in an urban battle.
Hezbollah Remains Wary amid Israeli Operations in Gaza
While Hamas is preparing for an Israeli ground assault into Gaza, Hezbollah's movements on Israel's northern frontier bear close watching. Iranian Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi on Nov. 17 called on the Muslim world to retaliate against Israeli actions in Gaza. Naturally, many are looking in the direction of Lebanon, where Hezbollah, Iran's most capable militant proxy, could open a second front against Israel.
Though Iran would welcome the opportunity to demonstrate the spectrum of its militant proxy strength, especially after supplying Hamas with the long-range Fajr-5 rockets that have been targeting Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, Hezbollah will likely be extremely cautious in deciding whether to participate in this war.
The group's fate is linked to that of the embattled regime of Syrian President Bashar al Assad; should Syria fracture along sectarian lines, Lebanon is likely to descend into civil war, and Hezbollah will have to conserve its strength and resources for a battle at home against its sectarian rivals. Indeed, Hezbollah has already been preparing for such a scenario by seizing control of villages along the Orontes River Basin in order to maintain connectivity with Syria's Alawite community.
At the same time, if Hamas is able to bog down Israeli ground forces by drawing them into a war of attrition in densely populated Gaza City, Hezbollah may see a political opportunity to burnish its credentials as the region's leading "resistance" movement. In this case, Hezbollah would likely monitor the situation until it could be assured that Israeli forces are sufficiently constrained on the Gaza front before it begins attacks on the northern front. Hezbollah is not looking for a major confrontation with Israel, and the tens of thousands of additional Israeli reservists called up compared to Operation Cast Lead suggest that Israel is already preparing for a two-front contingency. If Hezbollah does decide to participate in the war, it would be carefully timed to drive an already embattled Israel toward a cease-fire so that Hezbollah could claim a largely symbolic victory at relatively little cost.
With Hezbollah uncertain how the Israeli-Hamas battle will play out, the group appears to be taking a cautious approach. Stratfor has received indication that Hezbollah has prevented radical Palestinian groups in southern Lebanese refugee camps from firing rockets into northern Israel. In addition to an increase in the number of patrols by the Lebanese army and the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, Hezbollah has been deploying numerous operatives in plainclothes along the border to monitor the situation. Hezbollah has also installed cameras around the Ain al Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp near Sidon to monitor traffic from the camp to its outside environs. Whereas Hezbollah completely controls movement into and out of Palestinian refugee camps in the deep south, Ain al Hilweh lies completely within a Sunni neighborhood. For this reason, Hezbollah has rented a number of apartments around the camp, especially in al Ta'mir area, to keep a close watch there.
For now, Hezbollah appears intent on not allowing the battle in Gaza to spill into southern Lebanon. It remains to be seen whether that calculus would shift should Hamas succeed in wearing down Israeli ground forces.

"Indigenous" Palestinaians? Seriously? Jews have CONTINUOUSLY lived in the Land for nearly 3500 years. GET A GRIP.
The Palestinians are the descendants of the Biblical Jews. Even David ben Gurion admitted that. You are supporting the overthrow of the children of Abraham by invaders from Europe. God isn't likely to let that stand. Why consort with the accursed?
But there were less than 100,000 of them 100 years ago, and 5 million of them now.
White European land-grabbers run Apartheid Israel. I don't buy your millenia-old rationalle. European Ashekenazis have been on an anti-Semitic purge of their 'holy land' for decades.
But some of us know what the 1922 and 1931 British Census counts reported, that Jews were a small minority in the area, where the Arab population was the majority, up until there as a HUGE influx of Jewish immigration to displace them:
I can trace my family lineage to before 1700 in the United States. I guess I own all of it, according to your dumb, stupid, logic.
"What makes the lives of White European land-thieves more valuable than indigenous Palestinians made into refugees by UN decree?"
Put that way, i guess the answer is the Palestinians are just part of an inferior culture and race.
Israelis and Palestinians Killed in the Current Violence At least 6,617 Palestinians and 1,097 Israelis
have been killed since September 29, 2000.
1300 rockets fired at their country in less than a year. China would have acted after the first one, as would have Putin. Even Obama would probably have done something by now if they were hitting the US. Geez, even the Canadians would have got beyond hand wringing by the time they had 1000 incoming.
But those dastardly Israelis have just been letting those nice "Palestinian" people, the economic hub of the ME, throw away all those rockets. Shame on them.
YouTube - Potty Mouthed 10 Yr Old Palestinian Girl Opens a Can of Kick Ass on Israeli Soldiers
little girl uses 'C' word ... naughty naughty !
What isn't stated here..and what is obvious to me but to none of you of course...is "what are Israel's war aims?" We know the opposition's game plan: by whatever means necessary wipe Israel off the map...and by extension kill all the Jews. So that's not news. What of Israel then? I would argue German "lebenstraum" or "breathing space" is the primary war aim. Simply put "tunneling must be made prohibitively expensive via vat distances of Israeli occupied territories." That would mean the Sinai, Damascus and Beirut...the taking all three of which I would argue is the war aim. We shall see how well a "three State solution" can be effected. Securing population centers is no mean feat. But the chaos all around Israel does argue for the most aggressive approach.
The claim that Palestinian children and grandmothers want to "kill all the Jews" is, of course, about as realistic as Iraq nuking the United States. You're fear-mongering to justify the carpet-bombing of Apartheid Israel's prison colony.
Gazan women wield deadly white flags. How can Israel countenance such a threat?
IDF soldier sentenced to 45 days for death of mother, daughter in Gaza war
Military advocate general reaches plea bargain in the most significant event mentioned in UN Goldstone Report; Givati soldier was accused of shooting women who raised white flag.
It is obvious that you already know what Israel's goal is although "breathing space" is better translated into expansion, domination, and exploitation. It is true, however, that many Americans are sheltered from the true purposes of the war: that Israel can stand no periods of peace without taking some action or its public officials (Likud) begin to lose support.
You know this, of course. But many Americans only read the censored MSM versions. Here, today, is an appeal for support of the truth from Antiwar.com:
News From Gaza You Won't Get From American Media
As Israeli bombs fall on Gaza, the "news" from Gaza is filtered through the mainstream media – which is America's version of the Occupied Territories.
Israeli spokesmen are all over CNN, NBC, and ABC: coverage in this country is completely one-sided. Just as Israel is blockading Gaza, so the American media is blockading the real news from Gaza, where children are dying in Israel's "war on terrorism."
Where can you get the real news from Gaza?
Right here.
There's just one problem: we're running out of money, despite our winter fund drive. After an initial burst of donations, the stream has become a trickle. If this goes on much longer, we'll be in real trouble.
Break the media blockade and help get out the truth about Israel's war of aggression to our 1 million readers. Send in your tax-deductible donation today.

Resistance in Gaza Reaches Further than Tel Aviv, Hits Israeli Warship
Shortly after the Palestinian resistance in Gaza hit an Israeli warship, fighters fired on Sunday rockets which reached further than Tel Aviv for the first time since the offensive started last Wednesday. Herzliya, 85 km far from Gaza, was hit by Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas' military branch, Qassam Brigades.
A few hours earlier, the resistance fired an Israeli warship facing Gaza's coast. Qassam Brigades claimed responsibility for the attack, as they issued a video tape showing how an Israeli fighter jet was downed by rockets fired two days earlier. The Zionist entity has been targeted by more than 770 Palestinian rockets and missiles since November 14, Israeli media sad. Rockets fired from Gaza on Sunday landed in occupied territories of Ashkelon, Ashdod, Kiryat Malakhi, and Eshkol area, where up to 9 Israelis, including 3 occupation soldiers were injured. These operations are part of several achievements accomplished by the Palestinian Resistance.
On Thursday, the Qassam Brigades had downed an Israeli drone, calling its operation against the Israeli enemy "Baked Caly Rocks", referring to a term in the holy Quran. Earlier on Thursday, Islamic Jihad's military branch, al-Quds Brigades fired Iranian-made long-range missiles, Fajr 5, on Tel Aviv. Fajr 5 rockets are among hundreds of missiles the Palestinian resistance groups have fired on the occupied territories, breaching the Iron Dome which the Israeli officials bragged they processed it, and proving it is a futility.
Shortly after the assassination of Hamas' commander Ahmad al-Ja'abari on Wednesday, several resistance figures threatened a harsh response, saying the Zionist Entity has opened "gate of Hell" on itself.
"These operations are part of several achievements accomplished by the Palestinian Resistance."
I do believe that after a month and a half of accomplishments they will be begging for peace. Just as Hezbollah did at the end of the Lebanon debacle for them. Israel made Hezbollah wait a week before giving in to theier "demands" for a cease fire.
It is amazing that the ZH folks are so taken in by Hamas propaganda. Hamas is the Federal Reserve of the Arab world.
And funny that West Bank Arabs are not joining in. Why? Well since they stopped making war their economic condition has improved greatly. They still talk shit but their preference is to do business.
I hope Israel just finishes the job this time once and for all and eliminates Hamas and any other muslim terrorist groups. Any civilians still staying in Gaza do so at their own risk as they should be heading to Iran since Iran likes them so much let Iran feed and shelter them.
You may want that, but Apartheid Israel lacks the capability. They're too chickenshit to invade Gaza, because they know how badly they'd get smashed. The little colony has lost its utility to the forces of colonialsim and empire (see Kissinger, Henry).
That's why they're crying to the heavens for a brokered cease-fire.
And in Gaza, they say "bring it on!"
Apartheid Israel is impotent to do anything in Gaza (other than cry to the world for a cease-fire). If they invade, their little Land-Grabbers won't even reach Beit Lahiya. Meanwhile, the White European settlers are too terrified by bottle-rockets to even get to Starbucks.
"Long range rockets"? Um, the rocket type seem to be the Fajr 5 with an effective range of 75km. Known operators are Iran, Syria and Libya.
Wasn't Ambassador Stevens moving Libyan weapons to the Syrian insurgents? To others? Were any weapons diverted? To where?
On a lighter note
i thought this war was going to be televised... I hate having to get off my fat ass and read about it.
Those who are anti-israel do not understand what an alliance is. We need Israel as much as Israel needs us.
We are civilized, they are civilized.
We want to advance science and arts, they want to advance science and art.
Our civilization is judeo-christian.
It's perfect match.
Israel continues its airstrikes on Gaza, and Gaza continues its long-range rocket attacks on major Israeli population centers
oh my, for a second I though Israel continues its attacks on major Palestinian population centers but apparently it's just airstrikes on Gaza
It all depends on Israeli restraint. A walking artilery barrage starting at the North end of Gaza could empty the strip into Egypt in a matter of days. Egypt is not interested in a buch of Palestinians. No country wants them. Israel for the time being is stuck with them.
There are limits as to how far Hamas wants to push the Israelis. Neither side wishes to "win", but if pushed hard enough the Israelis will do what they have to do.

Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast The Phone Booth star, 37, overcame his addiction issues after a stint in rehab in 2005, and he admitted it took him a while to fully adjust to a clean-living lifestyle.The Dubliner told Elle magazine: "I made love to a woman about two-and-a-half years after I got clean, and it was one of the most terrifying moments of my life."It was in the afternoon.

Retired shoe store owner starts his own museum
Retired Elkhart shoe store owner has run his own 'Time Was' museum since 1988.
ELKHART — Paul Thomas has channeled his love of his hometown and of history into creating a unique museum in downtown Elkhart.
The Time Was historical museum is filled with Thomas' memorabilia of 90-plus years in Elkhart and donated artifacts dating back to the early-to-mid-nineteenth century.
Thomas was born in Goshen on Oct. 23, 1923, but moved to Elkhart six months later, and has never left.
Thomas was in the shoe business for nearly 50 years and ran his own store in downtown Elkhart before selling it to his son in 1988. It was not long before he began work on his next project above the now-vacant shoe store.
"I went home and told my wife that I was going to retire and sell the store. She said, 'You've never been home for lunch, and you've never been home on Saturday, and you're not going to start now,'" Thomas told the South Bend Tribune.
Thus Thomas opened the Time Was museum on Feb. 1, 1988. It fills a seven-room apartment on the second floor of Thomas' Main Street building.
Thomas said he never was a collector, but as a lifelong laborer on Main Street, felt equipped to model his hands-on museum in a way that resembled its business pattern.
Time Was consists of seven rooms: Thomas' office; a room full of antique books and atlases; a "geneology room" with over a century's worth of Elkhart school yearbooks, city directories and telephone books; a room featuring old Elkhart restaurants and menus; a room of Elkhart newspaper extras dating back to 1868; a room showcasing vintage clothing, and a bathroom.
Admission to Time Was is free. Thomas maintained that a walk-through of his museum is a simple free-will offering.
Although the museum receives no outside funding to operate, Thomas approximated that 90 percent of materials displayed at Time Was are donated by Elkhart residents and businesses.
"Every time somebody cleans out their attic they think of me," Thomas chuckled.
In its 26-year history, Time Was has attracted between 2 and 3 thousand visitors annually. Many of those are schoolchildren, travelers and members of reunions, church groups and service groups.
Thomas, who runs the museum entirely by himself, offers tours of Time Was from 10:30 a.m. to noon Monday through Saturday by appointment only.
Thomas said he does not put as much time into the establishment as he previously did, but was quick to assert that he is not retiring from any duties.
"I still do a lot of community work so I'm gone a lot," Thomas said.
Once serving as an Elkhart City Council member and participating in several mayors' committees, Thomas proclaimed his unwavering pride in Elkhart.
Thomas has been dubbed "Mr. Elkhart" and the "Mayor of Main Street" because of his activities, and the names have stuck.
Paul Thomas Drive is an honorary title given to a one-block stretch of Main Street extending in front of Thomas' building.
"I think I've accomplished what I set out to do," Thomas said.
But Time Was will remain open. Paul has tasked his son Brian Thomas, Elkhart's 2nd District council member, with maintaining the museum when Paul can no longer.
Brian Thomas said he plans to run it under many of the same auspices that his father does. The part-time hours suit the small museum.
"People do like to utilize it," Brian said.
He added that he has every intention of maintaining Time Was and not letting it die.

Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) could face the grim prospect of having to shell out additional royalty of up to R3,400 crore if Assam, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu take their cue from Gujarat, and seek royalty on the pre-discount price of crude oil rather than the actual price it is sold at. This would be in addition to the R10,000 crore sought by Gujarat, a claim the explorer is currently fighting in the Supreme Court.
Sources told FE that ONGC would suffer a R3,400-crore extra royalty outgo if the three states claim additional royalty payments saying that the tax should have been paid on the gross (pre-discount) price of crude oil since April 2008.
According to ONGC, paying royalty on pre-discount price works out to be R10,000 crore from April 2008 till September 2013 in respect of Gujarat alone. Similar implications would also arise in Assam, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu where the company is producing from onshore fields, said a senior ONGC official.
The maharatna PSU appealed in the Supreme Court against the Gujarat High Court order of November last year. On February 13, the apex court stayed the high court order, but told ONGC to pay royalty based on the pre-discount price starting February. The dispute started way back in 2003, when ONGC started paying royalty to Gujarat on its post-discount crude oil price.
Since the PSU firm shares a chunk of the oil subsidy bill, there is a wide gap between the gross (pre-discount) and net (post-discount) crude oil price. For instance, in the January-March quarter of 2014-14, ONGC sold every barrel of crude oil for $106.65. However, after compensating government-owned oil marketing companies (OMCs) for selling fuel below market cost, the net realisation stood at just $32.78 a barrel.
In October 2003, upstream companies were directed to share under-recoveries of OMCs. However, the Centre said that the revenue of states in terms of royalty should not be affected by the discount offered to OMCs.
Based on this direction, ONGC started paying royalty to the Centre for its offshore fields at the post-discount price, while for onshore fields it paid royalty on the pre-discount price since April 2003. But ONGC realised that royalty payments to states is in excess of the statutory limit of 20% of the price realised by the company, as mentioned in the Oilfields (Regulation and Development) Act of 1948.
In fact, it was as high as 49.8%

PC sales flat as netbooks decline
Consumers waiting for tablet computers and turning away from netbooks
The anticipated arrival of tablets has sparked a decline in netbook sales that has hit PC figures across Western Europe.
PC shipments were flat with only 0.5% growth in the third quarter compared to the same time last year, according to analyst firm IDC.
IDC said the Western European weakness was due to lower demand for netbooks, which have helped prop up the PC market during the past few years of economic difficulties. Last quarter, sinking demand lead to a 25% fall in shipments of the cheap and cheerful mini laptops.
PC rankings
Acer - 21.6%
Dell - 9.2%
Asus - 8.5%
Lenovo - 5.9%
Others - 35.6%
"Mini notebooks had started to slow down in the first half of 2010, but increasing noise and announcements around media tablets have contributed to accelerating the trend," said Eszter Morvay, research manager at IDC.
"Some users have already purchased an iPad, and many others adopted a wait and see position as more products develop towards Christmas," she added.
Across EMEA, shipments were up 10.5% from last year, to 27.8 million computers, largely helped by demand in Eastern Europe driving shipments up 43%.
Acer won back the top spot from HP last quarter, with growth of 3.4% from the same quarter last year bumping its share to 21.6%. Dell held third spot, mostly thanks to its strength in the business market, IDC said.
Asus managed to post 26.8% growth, as its netbook sales held up better than its rivals did.

* November WCS trades at $33.50/bbl below WTI
* November synthetic trades at $12.50/bbl below WTI
CALGARY, Alberta, Oct 3 (Reuters) - Canadian cash crudeprices weakened on Thursday, extending losses due to robustproduction from the oil sands and decreased demand byrefineries.
Western Canada Select heavy blend for November delivery lastsold for $33.50 per barrel below the West Texas Intermediatebenchmark, according to Shorcan Energy brokers.
That compares with a settlement price of $32.85 per barrelbelow the benchmark on Wednesday.
Light synthetic crude from the oil sands for Novemberdelivery last traded at $12.50 per barrel below WTI, comparedwith a settlement price on Wednesday of $11.75 below thebenchmark.
A ramping up of production at Imperial Oil's Kearlproject and strong output from Syncrude's northern Alberta oilsands project have pushed differentials wider in recentweeks.
Production from Canada's largest energy company SuncorEnergy Inc dipped in September however, falling 16percent month-on-month to 365,000 barrels per day as a result ofmaintenance at its U2 upgrader.
Market players said weaker refining margins meant there wasless demand from refineries, while Shell Canada's 100,000 bpd Scotford, Alberta, refinery, is also undergoing afull turnaround.
"Margins are diminishing so refineries have lowerutilization than in the last two or three months, which isputting pressure on pricing," one Calgary crude trader said.
"As we get more and more production coming out there arealso logistical issues."
Pipeline company Enbridge Inc increasedapportionment on its export network in October, and some marketsources said there were concerns there could be more rationingahead.
Higher apportionment can push differentials wider onconcerns that crude will get bottle-necked in Canada. Lastwinter congested export pipeline capacity and growing productionmeant WCS at times traded more than $40 per barrel below WTI, inwhat the Alberta government termed the "bitumen bubble".

"We chose this design because the left side looked like a book cover and we had the perfect black and white picture to use. Only complaint was on the of the smaller pictures was printed so bright you couldn't make out some of the picture, couldn't tell from the spec they sent and I even chose to have someone personally check it first"
"I ordered these Save the Dates in "blush" - they arrived this week and are beyond perfect. When I received the proof, I made several edits to the text and I received updated proofs extremely fast! The quality of the pictures printed was great and I can't wait to send these!"
"My fiance designed our save the date using this product. Though it is designed to hold two photos, we actually used one photo where both of us were standing far apart. It turned out perfectly. We are on either side of the information. It turned out great. The paper is great quality, and the colors are spot on."
"I am so glad I ordered this card! The entire process was seamless-uploading pictures, chatting with a specialist before placing my order, having a professional edit my design, etc. By far one of the easiest things I have had to do for my wedding... I highly recommend this product and Wedding Paper Divas! I will definitely be a repeat customer!"
"We choose the purple color - which is like an eggplant. It is beautiful and the card turned out great. The pictures weren't tiny (like i was worried about) but you can see all 3 very easily. A really cute style. Everyone liked the quote on the back as well."

LA QUINTA, Calif. When Mark Wilson got to 8 under through 11 holes on the Palmer Private course Friday, he seriously discussed golf's magic number with playing partner Harrison Frazar, who once shot a 59 on another Humana Challenge course.
"I don't know why the conversation went there ... but I thought about it," Wilson said.
Wilson ended up posting the lowest score of his career, and that 62 wasn't even the best round of the day in the desert. Bob Hope's name is no longer on this reformatted tournament, but its tradition of stunningly low scores is still going strong.
Wilson pulled even with Ben Crane and David Toms at 16-under 128 to share a three-stroke lead after the second round of the Humana Challenge on Friday, topping a leaderboard covered with bogey-free rounds and personal bests.
Extremely low numbers always dominate the erstwhile Bob Hope Classic, which features two of the PGA Tour's three easiest courses. Add a second day of ideal Palm Springs weather, and exceptional play is necessary just to stay in contention.
For example, Ryan Moore tied the Nicklaus course record with a 61, yet he was still five strokes back of the lead - and he wasn't even among 23 players who played bogey-free rounds Friday.
"Everything has been much improved, and we got a much better field because of it," said Crane, who had just 48 putts in his first two rounds. "This is a great place for players to start their year, because it's like playing indoors."
To illustrate his point, Crane mimed his caddie picking grass blades and dropping them from shoulder height.
"I'm like, `Where's the wind?'" Crane said. "He's like, `I don't know.' I'm like, `OK, let's just hit a normal shot here.'"
Crane shot a 63 on the three-course tournament's Palmer Private course, and Toms had a 65 on the Nicklaus Private course to match Wilson at 16-under 128. Rookie Harris English had a 62 on the Nicklaus Private course to join five players in fourth place at 13 under.
"That's what you've got to do out here," said English, the University of Georgia graduate playing his sixth round on the PGA Tour. "Put it in the fairway and then try to go out and get after it. I was getting my putter hot, and it was a lot of fun."
Moore tied Charlie Wi's 2009 record on the Nicklaus course despite starting with consecutive bogeys on his second and third holes before an eagle on the fourth. He then birdied 11 of 12 holes, including six straight around the turn.
"Really the last thing I remember was being 2 over through three, and then I just walked off the 18th hole," said Moore, who rose 103 spots on the leaderboard. "Maybe that just freed me up. I just let go. ... I don't know if I ever putted that good in my entire life."
Wilson earned a reputation as a fast starter when he won in Hawaii and Phoenix during the first five weeks of last season. He also gets a boost from his offseason connection to the Coachella Valley, including a membership at the Ironwood Country Club near his in-laws' home in Palm Desert.
"It's always been very good to me, and then Q-school has been good to me in the desert," Wilson said. "I get a lot of good vibes here."
Toms shot a fairly pedestrian 65 on the Nicklaus course with a second straight day of steady play - but not everybody chewed up the three courses. Toms' playing partner, Phil Mickelson, shot a 69, but remained well back of the leaders after opening with a 74.

i have a java class like this
public class A {
private String field1;
private String field2;
// getters, setters but no equals and hashcode
and a list of objects of this class, i want to remove from this list all the duplicates elements that has the same field1 or the same field2, so i have 2 Comparators
public class Comparator1 implements Comparator<A> {
public int compare(A o1, A o2) {
return o1.getField1().compareToIgnoreCase( o2.getField1() );
public class Comparator2 implements Comparator<A> {
public int compare(A o1, A o2) {
return o1.getField2().compareToIgnoreCase(o2.getField2());
so to do the task i use treeset like
TreeSet<A> ts1 = new TreeSet<A>(new Comparator1())
TreeSet<A> ts2 = new TreeSet<A>(new Comparator2())
but how can i do the same using just one comparator and one treeset ?
Thanks for the help
Thanks all for the answers, but after reading them i don't know if this is the right approach to the real problem.
In my real case field1 is like a phone number and field2 is like a name. So i don't want to call the same phone number more than one time (this is the first treeset to removes duplicates) and i don't want to call more than one time the same name (the second treeset to removes duplicates)
You can modify the class but i'd like to know if this approach is ok to resolve the real problem.
If this approach is correct, from your question, i see that without modifying the class is not possible to use just one comparator

OLYMPIA — Washington state has the highest state minimum wage in the nation, but a new bill being considered by lawmakers would allow some employers to pay a lower "training wage" to new employees for a period of time.
The measure heard before the Senate Commerce & Labor Committee on Wednesday would establish a training certificate for employers with fewer than 50 employees. The certificate would allow them to pay new employees 75 percent of the minimum wage in a training period to last no longer than 680 hours. The state's minimum wage increased by 15 cents this month to $9.19 per hour.
Employers would only be able to use the certificate once per employee, and training wages could not be used on more than 10 percent of the employer's workforce.
A companion bill in the House had a public hearing Tuesday.
Exceptions to the minimum wage law already exist, with employers being able to pay less than the minimum wage to certain groups such as student workers at schools they attend, and individuals impaired by age or physical or mental deficiency or injury. State law also allows a training wage for 85 percent of minimum wage for 14- and 15-year-olds.

Only limited information on the Jammu (and) Kashmir Liberation League (JKLL) in the UK could be found among the sources consulted by the Research Directorate.
Political Parties of Asia and the Pacific provided the following information in 1985 on the Azad Kashmir Liberation League (AKLL):
Founded in 1962 by K.H. Khurshid, then president of Azad Kashmir, the AKLL was one of the very few well-organized parties in the territory. Upon winning seven of the twenty-five seats in the Provincial Legislature in 1970, the AKLL established itself as the second largest partynext to the Pakistan People's Partyin Azad Kashmir. Although it had lost four of these members to other parties by the 1975 elections, the AKLL remained the second party with five of its members sitting in the expanded forty-two member Azad Kashmir Legislative Assembly following the 1975 elections.
The main, and most controversial, plank of the party's program demanded Pakistan's recognition of the Azad Kashmir government as the legitimate authority representing the entire state of Jammu and Kashmir.
Although a partner in the four-party alliance that won the 1975 elections in the territory, the AKLL merged with the Azad Kashmir unit of the PPP in 1976. Following the military junta's usurpation of power in 1977, the party, still led by Khurshid, openly supported the regime's decision to postpone the legislative elections. On the Kashmir issue, the AKLL was prepared to respect the resolutions of the United Nations (1985, 894-95).
According to the Website of the Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) of Amanullah Khan, 12 Kashmiri political, social and religious organizations, including the JKLL, met in Rawalpindi in July 1989 and formed an alliance called the Kashmir Liberation Alliance (KLA) (JKLF 29 May 1997a). Because some of the members violated the code of conduct, and the PPP lost interest in the KLA following the change of government, the KLA gradually became inactive (ibid.). Although it was revived in 1993, renamed the JKLA and increased its membership to over 30 groups, according to the JKLF, "it did not become active and did not achieve much" (ibid.).
Justice (Retd.) Abdul Majeed (Malik) has been referred to as the head of the JKLL (JKLF 29 May 1997b), its chief (Ministry of Information and Media Development 12 May 1999), and its president (Hasan Feb. 1999). On 31 August 1998 Maroof Akhter Abassi was acting president of the JKLL (MSANEWS 2 Sept. 1998).
In December 1995 Chaudhry Mohammed Sadiq from Birmingham was the senior vice president of the JKLL, although the source was not clear whether he held the position in the UK branch of the JKLL or the main group itself (India Abroad 29 Dec. 1995). At that time, Sadiq participated in a meeting of the leaders of several Kashmiri groups that met in Southall to challenge the claims of Pakistan to Kashmir and those of the pro-Pakistani Kashmir groups (ibid.).
The JKLF publication MSANEWS reported in October 1996 that on 14 September 1996 the Indian army had arrested all the leadership of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) in order to "make the process of the so-called elections to the state assembly successful" (MSANEWS 8 Oct. 1996). MSANEWS stated that Mirwaiz Maulvi Umar Farooq, APHC chairman, as well as the leader of the JKLL had been "confined to their houses in Srinagar and Islamabad respectively" while Syed Ali Gilani, Khawaja Abdul Ghani Lone, Yasin Malik, Javed Ahmed Mir and other Kashmiri leaders had been detained in the Ontipura police station (ibid.).
In mid-May 1999 Justice (Retd.) Abdul Majeed (Malik) was reported by the Pakistani paper The Nation to have stated at a news conference in Rawalpindi that
Kashmiris will never allow the division of Kashmir and they expect pressure from Pakistan and international community on India for the removal of Indian forces from Occupied Kashmir. Pakistan should not indicate deviation from its principled stand on Kashmir (Daily Press Summary 12 May 1999).
The Research Directorate was unable to obtain information on the JKLL structure, current status, or treatment of its members by the Azad Kashmiri and Pakistani authorities.
This Response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the Research Directorate within time constraints. This Response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.

On the Road: Customer Projects at Stitches Midwest
August 24th, 2010
This past weekend I had the great pleasure of going to Stitches Midwest in Schaumburg, IL. It was so fun being surrounded by crafters all weekend and seeing knitters everywhere we went. As I've said before, one of my favorite things about going to shows is seeing customer projects. Some stop by to show off their work, while other are stumbled upon in hotel lobbies. Either way, seeing the finished work (or work in progress) is always so satisfying for me. Here are some of the beautiful projects from this weekend:
Please keep your mouse over the slideshow to see the captions. Unless the name of the pattern is specified in the caption, we do NOT have the pattern available. If you're viewing the photos in your e-mail, please click on the title of the blog post to view it on our website in order to see the captions.
We're headed to Maker Faire NY in September and Stitches East in October, and we'd love to see you there! Even if you can't make it to a show you can share your projects in our Customer Gallery.

Reciprocal Teaching Strategies and Their Impacts on English Reading Comprehension
Whenever teachers are faced with the problem of students who do not have adequate comprehension skills, they need to be able to train those students to use metacognitive strategies; otherwise, these students will continue to read texts emphasizing only words and not meaning. One set of metacognitive strategies are the reciprocal teaching strategies used to improve students' reading comprehension. Reciprocal teaching involves four main metacognitive reading strategies: predicting, questioning, clarifying, and summarizing. The aims of this paper are to define the key terms, explain the models of reading process, review reading process and reading strategies, discuss cognitive and metacognitive strategies and reading comprehension, elaborate reciprocal teaching and its theoretical framework, mention the related research on reciprocal teaching, and state relationship between reciprocal teaching and reading comprehension. The findings indicated that reciprocal teaching had a significantly positive effect on the English reading comprehension and usage of the four main metacognitive reading strategies of EFL students.

Portland-based Gerding Edlen transferred the downtown Bellevue project's unsold units on Thursday to an entity led by investment bank Morgan Stanley, according to county records.
The new owners announced price cuts to help spur sales at the 539-unit development, where just 118 sales have closed since the two towers were completed nearly two years ago.
"This is an acknowledgment that prices today aren't what they were," Ira Glasser, an adviser to Morgan Stanley, said Monday.

At 43 and 42 stories, the project's two towers are the Eastside's tallest buildings. Gerding Edlen built them in large part with $275 million borrowed in January 2007 from a consortium of lenders led by Morgan Stanley.
That loan matured a year ago, Glasser said, and the lenders have been paying the project's bills since then. The ownership transition was "an amicable and consensual agreement" to put the towers on new financial footing with minimal disruption, he added.
The Bellevue Towers takeover is the latest sign of how far the high-rise, high-end condo market has fallen since the real-estate bubble popped.
Sales at most new projects have been sluggish. Some, including The Bravern in downtown Bellevue, have been converted to rentals until the market recovers.
Gerding Edlen, one of Oregon's most prominent developers, also has lost two Portland condo projects to lenders because of slow sales, according to The Oregonian.
Bellevue Towers was the firm's first large project in the Seattle area. It broke ground before the market tanked, and by early 2008 about one-third of the units had been presold.
By the time the buildings were completed in early 2009, many of those prospective buyers either couldn't or didn't want to close.
The project's financial status has been the subject of considerable speculation in Seattle's commercial real-estate community for months. The Morgan Stanley takeover comes as no surprise, said Seattle land-use economist Matthew Gardner.
But it probably doesn't signal an end to Bellevue Towers' challenges, he added.
In addition to the more than 400 unsold units, he said, more than 100 units remain on the market at Washington Square, the towers' closest high-rise competitor in downtown Bellevue.
"That's a lot of supply in a condo market that I don't believe has yet bottomed in terms of price," Gardner said.
When Bellevue Towers opened in February 2009, condo prices ranged from $399,000 to $4.4 million. A Gerding Edlen principal predicted the project, at Northeast Fourth Street and 106th Avenue Northeast, would sell out in two years.
Five months later, with less than 10 percent of the units sold, Gerding Edlen cut prices an average 20 percent. With the additional reductions announced last week, average prices are 30 percent lower than two years ago, Glasser said.
County records indicate just three condos have sold over the past three months. But 10 sales are scheduled to close this month, Glasser said, and 50 more are in the pipeline. Those 50 buyers are being contacted this week and offered the reduced prices, he added.
Traffic at the project's sales center is up, Glasser said, and the condo market appears to be on the upswing. "I think we can sell out in the next few years, if the economy lets us," he said.
In addition to the $275 million loan from the Morgan Stanley consortium, county records indicate Gerding Edlen also took out a $67 million "mezzanine" loan — something like a second mortgage — from Seattle real-estate investment company Washington Holdings to help build Bellevue Towers.
It's unclear whether that loan has been repaid. When contacted Monday, Washington Holdings CEO Craig Wrench declined to discuss the status of the debt.
But Glasser said the Morgan Stanley loan is the new owners' only debt.
The ownership change won't affect the project's sales program, Glasser said. RealtyTrust remains Bellevue Towers' marketing representative.
