text: World 14 June 2007 West used to be best The Kennedy museum in Berlin is a reminder of a fraught, yet optimistic age Sign up for our weekly email * Beneath the Brandenburg Gate, just around the corner from Dunkin' Donuts, is a new museum, devoted to John F Kennedy, that sums up Germany's waning love affair with the United States. JFK spent less than eight hours in Berlin during his tour of Germany in June 1963, but the speech he made here was the defining moment of his presidency, and he knew it. "We'll never have another day like this one," he said, as he left Berlin that evening. Good politicians know how to make ordinary people feel important. Great politicians make them feel loved. West Berlin felt loved that day, and JFK's death, less than six months later, guaranteed that the illusion would never waver. This underground gallery is the ultimate expression of that myth. Descending the polished staircase into the hushed basement feels like entering a sacred space, more mausoleum than museum. The ambience is reminiscent of an imperial crypt. The centre of the room is given over to JFK's everyday artefacts (his dress shirt, his briefcase, his fountain pen), preserved behind plate glass like the holy relics of some latter-day saint. All that is missing from this shrine is an embalmed body in an open coffin. Ranged around the presidential knick-knacks are more than a hundred photographs in a long procession along whitewashed walls, like the Stations of the Cross. The pictures are arranged in two parallel rows - public shots above and private shots beneath. "We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda," said Kennedy. "It is a form of truth." These two rows of photographs show that Kennedy's camera delivered both. The upper row of public images is pure propaganda. The private row beneath feels far closer to the truth. The JFK in the upper row is healthy and monogamous; the JFK in the lower row is the real man, with his prostate problems, his urinary infections, his allergies, his diarrhoea. Here he is, wearing spectacles. Here he limps along on crutches, crippled by osteoporosis - exacerbated by the steroids he took to fend off the ill-effects of an ineffective adrenal gland. "I'll guard your secret identity as I guard the secrets of our nation," JFK tells Superman in a 1960s comic strip. He could have been talking about himself. Yet the real JFK is actually less revealing than the fantasy, especially here in Berlin, where history has been ripped up and rewritten so many times. With its brash shopping malls and burger bars, West Berlin used to feel like an American city. Now America seems like just another part of its complicated past. "All of us in the Kennedy family are very, very proud of our special relationship with your great city," declares Teddy Kennedy in a handwritten note to the people of Berlin, marking the opening of the museum, known simply as The Kennedys. But the special relationship that the museum commemorates is between Berlin and the Kennedys, rather than Germany and the United States. It was President Bush who brought down the Berlin Wall, not JFK, but I doubt there will ever be a museum here devoted to George Bush Sr, or to his son. Berlin's dwindling affection for America is partly a matter of geography. During the Cold War, West Berlin had no option but to look west. Now, with Poland and the Baltic states in the European Union, Berlin has been reunited with its historic hinterland, where its new trading partners now live. It is less than a century since it ruled a Reich that stretched all the way from here to Lithuania, and although today's Germans realise that those territories are lost for ever, Berlin still feels closer to the states beyond the Oder than the western änder of the Bundesrepublik. Yet there is more to it than that. Any museum about the Kennedys was bound to be nostalgic, but in the wake of the Iraq war it feels poignant, too. For my father's German family, after the Second World War, America and Britain were the liberators - the nations that saved them from the Red Army. Half my German family went to America. The other half came to Britain. The few who stayed behind were rescued by the Marshall Plan. Now Germany has stepped aside while Britain and America wade into Iraq, and it is hard to find anyone in Berlin who thinks that the Bundesrepublik made the wrong move. Though it focuses on a fraught moment at the height of the Cold War, The Kennedys feels like a memento of a more optimistic age. Before I left for home, I paid a visit to Tempelhof, Berlin's oldest airport, with its huge memorial to the 39 Britons, 31 Americans and eight Germans who died during the Berlin airlift, flying in food and fuel to break the Soviet blockade. The Germans call it der Luftbrücke ("the air bridge", rather than the airlift), and the sculpture depicts a bridge suspended vertically in mid-air. That Anglo-American bridge kept West Berlin alive, and older Berliners are still grateful. But gazing at the monument made me realise how suddenly the history of the place has shifted, and how abruptly my present has become the past. It was only the legend of JFK that made Berlin a western city. Now that the Cold War is over, this Prussian capital is turning towards the east once more.

Turkey Seeks to Purchase Armed Predator Drones From US
Author: haberturk Posted May 19, 2012
Some inside information has come to light from Washington about the visit of Turkish Chief of General Staff General Necdet Ozel to the US capital. For both countries, this trip was the first of its kind because of its "completely technical" nature. There were no references whatsoever to any political issues, as only military affairs were discussed.
Turkey's desire to acquire unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or drones) from the US was a main issue in the meeting. There are Predator drones in Turkey, taking off from Incirlik and transmitting back data, but these are not the type of drones that were discussed. Turkey wants armed Predators, the kind that can both survey and fire.
The problem is that the US only gives these weapons to countries that carry out joint operations with it. Obama wants to help Turkey in this matter, but it will not be easy to get it past Congress. Turkey wants them badly, thinking that they will make all PKK camps — notably those in the Qandil Mountain region in northern Iraq — untenable. Turkey is aware of the success that these drones are having against al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, which shares similar geographical conditions.
Obama has a different formula for giving the Predators to Turkey. Soon, the US will issue a list of countries that are and are not cooperating with them on the Iran issue. Countries that "fully comply with the sanctions" will be listed as full allies of the US, and they will receive a privileged status. This is why Obama asked Turkey to minimize its relations with Iran. In line with this request, Turkey quickly reduced its trade relations with Iran by 20%. The US president regarded that as a very important gesture, and will put Turkey on the list of countries that are fully complying with sanctions on Iran, thus making us a privileged one.
Obama is thinking that this could allow him to temporarily give armed drones to Turkey.
If this happens, life on Qandil Mountain (for PKK militants) will become unbearable.

La la la-la la la, Sing a happy song
The set lunch of 4 persons, consisted of seaweed soup, sweet sour fish, Thai style chicken, and stir-fried Romaine lettuce.
The total bill of 3 dishes and 1 soup is RM50.10.
Today in my last working day in 2011, I managed to do some retail therapy at my lunch time. I bought a few CNY cloths for my two princesses.
Whether you are ready, 2012 is here in less than 48 hours. I am sure everyone has its ups and downs of life in 2011. Year's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us. Keep the smile, leave the tears. Think of Joy and forget your fears.
Here I am wishing you a very happy new year.

 Approved by the RCGP, March 2016 By your baby's second month, there will no doubt have been plenty of changes, here's what you should expect. You won't only see changes in her progress as she goes from an unresponsive newborn to an increasingly alert and active tiny person, but in your competency as a parent as you become more confident with recognising your baby's needs. By two months of age your baby will be wanting more stimulation than the simple contrast of black and white objects so look out for more detailed and complicated designs and let her reach out and touch them. If you are lucky, your baby could be sleeping through the night but don't worry if she isn't. Most babies will still need at least one feed during the night to keep them satisfied. You should notice she is going for longer stretches when she does sleep and is staying awake for longer in between. This month might also bring a particularly special reward for all your hard work – your baby's first smile. Your baby at two months She should be able to: Respond to a bell in some way Hold her head up for short periods Follow objects Vocalise in ways other than crying, for example, cooing, gurgling or humming She will probably be able to: Smile in response to your smile (and this time it won't be wind) Hold her head at a 45 degree angle when on her stomach Keep her movements smoother and slightly more controlled. Your baby should be able to grab objects voluntarily now rather than in the early days when it was mostly involuntary and instinctive She may possibly be able to: Smile spontaneously Laugh out loud or squeal in delight Bring both hands together Lift her head 90 degrees when on her stomach Bear her weight on her legs when supported What to expect from your baby at month 3

SACRAMENTO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/23/13 -- RagingWire Data Centers, the nation's premier data center provider, today announced that both of its data center campuses have successfully validated compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) version 2.0. Commercial and government customers that process credit card transactions through RagingWire's data centers have the continued assurance that RagingWire meets or exceeds the industry standard for payment card information security.
"RagingWire's commitment to data protection is evident in our compliance with the PCI DSS and is a differentiator for us among other colocation providers," said William Dougherty, vice president of information technology at RagingWire. "In our daily operations, we stress the importance of physical and logical security. We enforce strict controls and have invested heavily in our employees and infrastructure to protect our customers' computing environments. Our compliance simplifies the certification process for our customers who rely daily on our controls."
RagingWire's PCI DSS compliance assessment encompassed its two Sacramento data centers (CA1 and CA2) and its latest data center in Northern Virginia (VA1), which total over 650,000 square feet of data center capacity. The PCI DSS assessment, completed from August 20, 2012 to November 8, 2012, included an exhaustive review of data center security records, operating procedures, network security protocols, and personnel security efforts. The assessment was performed by BrightLine CPAs & Associates, Inc. (www.brightline.com), a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) that provides assurance and compliance services to companies worldwide.
"The protection of sensitive cardholder data at all layers is a must-have for a company that plays any role in credit card processing," said Douglas Barbin, principal and PCI practice leader at BrightLine. "RagingWire's continuing compliance to the PCI DSS highlights their dedication to protecting cardholder data and providing secure data center environments for their merchant and service provider customers."
The PCI DSS, created by the PCI Security Standards Council which includes American Express, Discover, JCB International, MasterCard, and Visa, has paved the way for industry-wide adoption of security policies and procedures surrounding the processing of sensitive payment card and consumer data. The PCI DSS compliance assessment focuses on IT security policy, data protection, network access management and monitoring, physical security, software design, and organization vulnerability management. In addition to PCI DSS compliance, RagingWire's Sacramento and Ashburn data center facilities are also SSAE 16 Type 2 SOC 1 examined with zero exceptions.

The Paperless Office
The concept of the paperless office was formed some time ago, however, it has taken a while for the majority of companies to get onboard. In this white paper we explore the many benefits associated with making the digital switch.

Pál Fried (Hungarian/American, 1893-1976), Elegant French Woman, oil on canvas, signed
Pál Fried (Hungarian/American, 1893-1976), Elegant French Woman, oil on canvas, signed
Item Description:
Oil on canvas, signed lower left, unframed
Appears fine. Please contact firstname.lastname@example.com for specific condition questions.
Height 30 in. x Width 25 in.
About The Artist:
Pál Fried was a Hungarian artist. He was born in Budapest and studied at the Hungarian Academie under Professor Hugo Pohl and in Paris under Claude Monet and Lucien Simone His oil paintings were usually of dancers, nudes, and portraits, and his subjects were almost always women, although he also painted Paris, seascapes, and cowboys and landscapes of the American West.
The quintessence of mid century French chic is summed up in this beautiful portrait of a stylish French woman standing in front of the Arc de Triomphe. This work exhibits a very high degree of technical skill. Fried studied with Claude Monet and clearly some of the impressionist master's color palette and painting technique is on full display.

Director Martin Campbell is in early discussion to shoot a film version of the somewhat-popular 1981TV series, The Fall Guy, according to Deadline. The movie will follow a script by Thor and X-Men: First Class writers Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz. The film was originally going to be set up at Dreamworks, but as of now that is no longer definite.
The original TV series starred Lee Majors as a Hollywood stuntman who also worked part-time as a bounty hunter. The show ran for five years and has since gained a cult following. This will be Campbell's first directing gig since Green Lantern fizzled at the box office.
It will be interesting to see if the director can recapture the magic he had when he rebooted the fledgling James Bond franchise with Casino Royale. Hell, at this point we'll be happy if The Fall Guy winds up as good as Campbell's Zorro flicks.

Simply create a PhoneGap application for Windows Phone 7.5 in Visual Studio 2010
Download this episode
PhoneGap is an HTML5 and JavaScript framework that allows to build cross-platform mobile applications very easily.
Since version 1.3, PhoneGap fully supports Windows Phone and integrates into Visual Studio 2010.
For developers who are already using PhoneGap to target multiple mobile platforms, they can now also target Windows Phone 7.5.
In this demo you will see how to simply create a PhoneGap application in Visual Studio that uses Windows Phone features such as the image search or the camera.
The exact same code is then used to deploy an Android application in Eclipse.

The Discussion
Are you able to say yet if PhoneGap apps created now will work with the next version of Windows Phone?
@Ian2: the short answer to your question is no, this is not something that I am able to tell you today as there is very little that is public about the next version of Windows Phone as of today. However, considering the popularity of PhoneGap and the fact that this is a community open source framework, you should expect it to support future popular mobile platforms once they are out there.

When my son, Danny was diagnosed with high functioning autism a year and a half ago, the doctor asked if he had any "special interests." I knew what he was asking; I had heard and read plenty about "passions" or "obsessions" or whatever you want to call them. I know they are relatively common among children with autism.
At the time, I couldn't really identify one specific passion of Danny's. And to be honest, I was a bit relieved to know that there was one autism criterion that my son did not meet.
Shortly after that doctor's visit, Danny discovered Legos, and our whole world has been engulfed in a cyclone of those pesky multi-colored blocks. To say that Legos have become Danny's "special interest" would be a gross understatement.
The kid is completely, 100% obsessed.
He talks about them, plays with them, reads about them and surfs the Internet to find more Legos to covet. His face lights up like a Christmas tree when he sees the Legos logo or hears someone talking about them.
I'm over at Hartley's today, so click here to read more........

Ginger Root, the underground stem, or rhizome, of the plant Zingiber officinale, has been used in many herbal traditions since ancient times. In Ayurveda, ginger is known as the wonder herb, and it's no wonder, since Ayurveda uses ginger for a wide variety of conditions, including supporting digestion. Historically, ginger root was one of the most respected herbs for supporting joint health. Ginger has also been traditionally used to support healthy peripheral circulation, so it can help warm up cold hands and feet, and will also promote sweating when that is needed.
Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) is a flavorful, sweet herb that has been used for thousands of years and is still one of the most widely used herbs in all herbal systems. Licorice has been used traditionally to support the skin and the liver. It also is thought by herbalists to help soothe indigestion and the throat.
Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) is a tall evergreen tree native to Australia and Tasmania. Herbalists believe that eucalyptus is also broadly supportive of the immune and digestive systems.
Orange peel, as with all citrus peels, is used in traditional herbal medicine to support the digestive system. Traditionally, citrus peel was used to support normal function in the chest and diaphragmatic region. Citrus peel is pungent, bitter and warm.
Valerian is a hardy perennial flowering plant, with heads of sweetly scented pink or white flowers, the fragrant flowers of which were used as a perfume in the sixteenth century. Today, valerian root is a herb that promotes relaxation and is widely used in Europe because of its calming effect. Valerian works best when taken right at bedtime to calm the mind to promote sleep.
Peppermint is a perennial plant that produces light purple flowers and green leaves with serrated edges. Commonly used as a flavoring in products such as candy, chewing gum, toothpaste, and ice cream, peppermint also has been used traditionally to cool the body by promoting sweating, which can help support the respiratory system. Peppermint has also been widely used to support digestion and to soothe an occasional minor upset stomach.
Lemongrass is a tropical herb that is popular in Thai cooking. Traditionally, is has been used to support normal respiratory function. Lemongrass tastes great and is a warming herb that can support digestion.
Tulsi Leaf, also referred to as Holy Basil, is a well-known culinary herb with a delicious pungent bite. But basil has also been used traditionally to supporting good health. From an herbalists perspective, tulsi is a warming herb. It can support healthy digestion.
Cardamom seed is a uniquely flavored culinary herb in the ginger family. But cardamom seed is more than its delicious flavor. This herb is warming and has been traditionally used to support healthy stomach and digestive function as well as the respiratory system.
Oregano Leaf is a close botanical and chemical cousin to thyme and savory, which are all in the mint family. Traditionally, oregano was used to help soothe indigestion and to support lung and sinus function.
Clove Buds are the aromatic dried flower buds of a tree in the Myrtle family. The English name clove derives from Latin clavus (nail), as the shape of the buds resembles small nails. Clove bud is widely used as a spice in ancient Asian herbal traditions. With a warming quality, clove supports circulation and digestion.
Parsley Leaf is a bright green biennial herb with a long history of culinary use in the Middle East, Europe and North America. It also has a long history of use in herbal medicine to support the urinary system. Parsley is diuretic, and so has been traditionally used to support the bladder and can help generally with proper water balance in the body.
A perennial herb native to Europe and Asia and naturalized in North America and throughout the world, yarrow flower is a very popular herb in Western herbalism. It has a been traditionally used to support perspiration and urination. Yarrow is a cold, bitter herb that also is used to support respiratory function.
Not only is Black Pepper one of the most widely used culinary spices in the world, it also has a long history of use in traditional herbal medicine. A spicy herb that can help support digestion, it also supplies antioxidants, which can help to reduce free radicals. As a diuretic, black pepper can support water balance in the body.
Cinnamon Bark comes from a small evergreen tree that is native to Sri Lanka. Cinnamon is a pungent, sweet and hot spice that can warm and invigorates the body and support function of the respiratory and digestive systems. It can also help to promote circulation to the joints and support immune function.
Natural flavors are derived from natural sources such as spices, fruit, herbs, roots, or many other plants or foods, whose significant function in food is flavoring.
Bring water to boiling and steep 5 to 10 minutes. For a stronger tea, use 2 tea bags. Drink 2 to 3 cups a day to support nasal and respiratory function.

Back from the edge
Whew. For the folks who look in on this blog occasionally, I really must apologize. Immediately after getting the May/June Alamo calendar together I left on a giant West Coast tour. Upon getting back I was swamped, sick and exhausted. I hope to begin making regular posts again. For now, here's a great GIRL FROM RIO poster, because I'm tired of looking at the reproachful face of Larry Hagman.

NHL forwards ready to post bigger numbers
It can take years for skilled young forwards to finally move up into primary offensive roles. Some players are ticketed for bigger things year after year.
Here are several players who finally seem ready to escape that "almost-ready" category:
Brayden Schenn, Philadelphia Flyers: He finally became a point-per-game player last season . . . in the AHL, where he scored 33 points in 33 games during the NHL lockout. His 26 points in 47 Flyers games disappointed fans expecting his breakout season. His one offensive surge -- 16 points in 15 February games – proved he has the ability to become an impact forward. It will be interesting to see where he fits into the new front-line mix in Philadelphia.
Colin Wilson, Nashville Predators: He seemed to emerge as an impact forward last season until getting hurt. He scored 19 points in 25 games last season before suffering his season-ending injury. Once he returns from surgical repairs on both shoulders, he could become the finisher Barry Trotz so desperately needs. Wilson, 23, figures to improve on his career scoring pace (0.49 points per game) now that his game as matured.
Mikkel Boedker, Phoenix Coyotes: He seemed ready to break out last season when he scored 15 points in his first 20 games. But he finished with just seven goals and 19 assists in 48 games. Boedker, 23, has been an iron man – playing all 130 games the last two seasons and a team-high 886.53 for forwards during the lockout-shortened campaign.
Derick Brassard, New York Rangers: The perpetual Columbus prospect finally played like a sixth overall pick after landing in the Big Apple in the Marian Gaborik trade. He scored 11 points in 13 regular season games 12 points in 12 playoff games, relegating Brad Richards to the supporting cast. Brassard, 25, has played 322 games but is just now hitting his athletic prime.
Tyler Ennis, Buffalo Sabres: He has on the cusp for a while now, scoring 123 points in his 187 NHL games. Many experts expected his breakout last season, but he produced just 10 goals, 21 assists and a minus-14 rating in 47 games. He started out at center, moved to the wing and lost his way along the trail. But has improved his shots-per-game game average steadily over the last three years and he was a primary power-play performer.
Nick Bonino, Anaheim Ducks: He should step up to anchor the second line this season after scoring 13 points in 27 games last season. Bonino, 25, has scored just 33 points in his 112 NHL games. But at Boston University, he scored 88 points in 77 games during his final two college seasons. In 19 games for Syracuse in 2011-12, he scored 22 points in 19 games.
Carl Hagelin, Rangers: He arrived in pro hockey with a mature game after playing four seasons at the University of Michigan. He has scored 62 points and earned a plus-31 rating in his first 112 NHL games. Hagelin, 25, scored 11 points in eight games with Sodertalje SK in his native Sweden during the lockout last season. Then he became arguably the top Rangers forward at even strength. If he makes a strong comeback from his shoulder injury – and finds his place on the power play -- he could put up some serious numbers this season.

It is with great Pleasure that we welcome all our foreign newcomers, students, teaching and research collaborators, and professional friends of the National Technical University of Athens [NTUA]. It's generally acknowledged that NTUA is the leading educational institution for engineering and applied sciences and has a great role in the development in Greece. We are confident that the scientific, technological and socio – political information you will receive in this webpage will be proved useful. It contains all essential details about the NTUA – its history, its structure and organization, the schools and sections covering the various courses of study and research activities, as well as the application procedure for incoming LLP/Erasmus students.
NTUA was founded in 1837, at about the same time as the modern Greek State, just after the War of Greece for Independence of 1821 – 1828. It consists of nine Academic Schools. Eight of them deal with pure Engineering Sciences including Architecture, and one with Applied Mathematics and Physics. In each School a five-year studies program, with 300 credit units, leads to a Diploma equivalent to a Master in Engineering or Science.
The role that NTUA plays during the last 160 years in the development and progress of the country has undoubtedly been one of utmost importance and has been widely recognized. Graduates of NTUA with a strong background in Science and Technology and a Diploma equivalent to the Masters of the best Aglo-saxon Universities have been prominent members of the society, both in the academic field as well as the civil service and private business. An important number of our graduates are well known and honored "ambassadors" of Greece in many distinguished Universities and engineering companies all over the world.
Our first priority is to keep abreast of modern developments in Science and Technology, within the context of a modern democratic society. Important research achievements and new methods of approaching problems and teaching are constantly being followed by our 3.000 permanent members (academic and administrative staff) and 15.000 students. In addition to the provision of more knowledge, due importance is given to the skills of communication and management, which are so essential in the highly competitive nature of all leading activities, everywhere.
Above all, the aim of this historical University of Sciences and Technology is to contribute to a successful development of the collective and the individual infrastructure, by improving the quality if life in every aspect – cultural, social and professional.
Choosing "Prometheus bringing the fire from the Gods to the mankind", as its symbol, NTUA never loses sight of the real human needs and dimensions.
You are welcome to our NTUA family.
NTUA consists of Schools. Each School is further divided into Sections. Today, there exists 9 Schools with a total of 42 Departments, dealing with specific scientific fields in each School and fostering teaching and research. The names of the Schools and Departments were decided by the Senate in February 2002:
School of Civil Engineering
School of Mechanical Engineering
School of Electrical & Computer Engineering
School of Architecture
School of Chemical Engineering
School of Rural & Surveying Engineering
School of Mining & Metallurgical Engineering
School of Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering
School of Applied Mathematical & Physical Sciences
The Erasmus programme first began in 1987, and became the leader in student's participation. Under Erasmus, students can complete a course of studies in technical universities inside and outside the EU with which NTUA has the appropriate agreement. Periods abroad range from three months to one academic year, with guaranteed recognition of studies.
European Educational Programmes Office is located at the Administration Building, Department of studies, on the 1st floor, room 106.
It assists incoming students in applying for the student card (which gives them 50% reduction at all public means of transportation for the monthly card and separate tickets), the meals card at the campus restaurant, Greek language courses, finding accommodation, buddy service during their studies at N.T.U.A. and full administrative support.
We invite our incoming students to check out our web site about the application procedure, academic information and life at NTUA.

Storm's Destruction - Galveston
Thursday, March 6, 2008
Beware - The Storm Clouds Gather!
Isaac's Storm has to be a dream read for weather wonks who savor detailed descriptions of monster storms. It offers an exhaustive, but highly readable speculative account of the storm's slow development into a meteorological cataclysm heading Galveston's way. The sense of suspense and dread evident on the very first page of the book is there, indeed, for a good reason. If you'd like some information about this hurricane from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, then investigate "The Great Galveston Hurricane of 1900" and related articles at http://celebrating200years.noaa.gov/magazine/galv_hurricane/welcome.html.

Foreign governments, including Canada, France, Germany, Syria and the United States, are looking towards the antidote, HI- 6, as the next generation of protection against chemical weapons but Britain has rejected it so far.
Research in Canada, France and the US has shown that HI-6 is more effective than pralidoxime mesylate (known as P2S), favoured by the British army. Both offer protection against agents such as tabun and sarin, but only HI-6 protects against soman. Like other nerve gases, soman kills within 15 minutes.
One senior toxicologist said: 'The scientists I have met at Porton Down (the Ministry of Defence research centre) would like to recommend HI-6 to the MoD but a decision has been made upstairs on grounds of cost.'
Another source close to the MoD said the ministry had bought 1.5 million P2S-filled ComboPen auto-injectors from Solvay Duphar in the Netherlands in 1990. 'It would be a brave man to recommend scrapping them all and starting again with HI-6,' he said.
Dr Derek Palmer, chairman of Phoenix, said he found the ministry's attitude 'astonishing'. 'We are the only manufacturer of HI-6 in the world, we are a British company and we want to sell to the MoD but they aren't interested.
'We have supplied Sweden with enough HI-6 for all its troops and civilians. In our opinion, Swedish civilians are now better protected than British soldiers.'
Dr Dinny Madill, head of Canadian defence research into HI-6 from 1987 to 1993, said he was puzzled by the British approach.
'We carried out extensive research into the efficacy and safety of HI-6 . . . and it performed over and above the efficiency of all other oximes (antidotes) against all known nerve agents . . . All our troops had HI-6 when they went into the Gulf war.'
Dr Graham Pearson, director- general of the MoD's Chemical and Biological Defence Establishment at Porton Down, said: 'We can see HI-6 may have some advantages and are certainly interested to see if it would give us benefits over those we already have. Once something has gone into service and is being procured, you may well find that the (MoD) procurers are not terribly interested in trying to change things because they have a stockpile.'

... amazing: the trail followed stream beds through narrow, steep walled sandstone canyons, up rough but sturdy ladders, and across extensive boardwalks. The terrain is what I imagine the western slot canyons look like (substituting rough sandstone for polished red rock). The morning rain had recharged the stream enough to make the walking challenging, but not so much to make it dangerous. And when I ...

I have been writing this weekly column now for almost 45 years. Thanks to my friend and former graduate assistant Kern Trembath, his two sons Alex and Cal, who are about to graduate this year from the University of California Berkeley, his step-daughter Emily, and, of course, my own longtime (25 years and 6 months) assistant Donna Shearer, all of these columns are now saved electronically and can be retrieved by subject matter at www.richardmcbrien.com.
I regularly consult the Web site as I approach key topics, like anniversaries or major liturgical feasts, such as Christmas and Easter, liturgical seasons, such as Advent and Lent, and major annual observances, such as the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity.
I am surprised, however, by how few times I have devoted entire columns to Holy Week, even though there have been over 275 references to Holy Week since this column began in July 1966.
For those who might wonder about the column's origin many years ago, it was thanks to an invitation from the late Msgr. John S. Kennedy, then editor of The Catholic Transcript, the weekly paper of the Hartford, Conn., archdiocese. The archdiocese also happens to be my own ecclesiastical home.
I have written only two full columns on Holy Week, in 2005 and again last year. For both columns I was indebted to the work of my colleague at the University of Notre Dame, Professor Nathan Mitchell, a liturgical scholar of the first rank.
Prof. Mitchell did an entry on Holy Week in a work for which I served as general editor, the one-volume Harpercollins Encyclopedia of Catholicism, published in 1995.

Holy Week is observed during the final week of Lent (technically Lent ends at Mass on Holy Thursday evening), beginning on Palm Sunday and reaching its liturgical climaxes at the Easter Vigil and on the feast of Easter itself.
Holy Week commemorates Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem (Palm Sunday), his Last Supper with his closest disciples, including the one who would betray him (Holy Thursday), his Passion and Crucifixion (Good Friday), and his Resurrection (the Easter Vigil and Easter Sunday).
The final four liturgies of Holy Week -- the evening Mass on Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Easter Vigil and Easter Sunday -- are called the Easter Triduum, three days leading up to and including Easter Sunday itself.
The key venue for the early celebration of Holy Week was in the city of Jerusalem, and the earliest record we have of this celebration is a fourth-century travel diary kept by a European woman whose name, Egeria, is known by all liturgical scholars and their graduate students. She had been part of a pilgrimage to Jerusalem in the year 383.
According to Egeria, the Palm Sunday liturgy began in the afternoon with an elaborate procession which started outside of Jerusalem on the Mount of Olives. The bishop reenacted the role of Jesus, while children waved palm branches as the procession wound its way through the entire city.
On Holy Thursday night, after the Eucharist had been celebrated in the afternoon, the events of Jesus' Passion were reenacted: his agony in the Garden of Gethsemane, his arrest there, and his trial before Pontius Pilate.
On Good Friday there were four hours of veneration of the cross, beginning just before noon, followed by a solemn afternoon Liturgy of the Word that concluded with a reading of the Passion according to John.
The Easter Vigil began in mid-afternoon on Holy Saturday, with the final preparation of the catechumens. That night, while the catechumens were being baptized, the rest of the faithful kept vigil. As soon as the newly baptized were led into the church, the celebration of the Easter Eucharist began.
According to Nathan Mitchell, these Jerusalem-centered liturgies eventually caught on throughout the then-Christian world. By the fifth and sixth centuries the highly influential churches of Rome and Constantinople (modern Istanbul) had adopted these Holy Week liturgies, which were subsequently spread to other local churches within their vast jurisdictions, both in the West and the East.
Unfortunately, the linkage between the liturgies of Holy Week and the original times and places of the sacred events became obscured in the medieval West, as any former altar boy can attest if he ever served on Holy Saturday morning, with its long readings in Latin and very few worshippers.
The situation was not remedied until the restoration of Holy Week mandated by Pope Pius XII in 1956, and the liturgical reforms of the Second Vatican Council a few years later.
The restoration of Holy Week remains one of Pope Pius XII's greatest achievements. We can thank him and the liturgists he wisely consulted for the spiritually meaningful ceremonies which we will celebrate at this week.

Preparing teachers for inclusive education in diverse socio-cultural environments
Thematic Area: Equal Access to education; School and teacher development
Year/Date: 12/08/2010
The ETF studies on teacher preparation in the Western Balkans are going to be presented at the European Conference on Educational Research (ECER 2010) to be held in Helsinki on 23-27 August.
ETF expert Keith Holmes will chair the round table "Preparing Teachers for Inclusive Education in Contexts of Social and Cultural Diversity in the Western Balkans" in a dedicated session of the conference on 27 August.
As part of its support to enhance the evidence gathering and research capacities in the Western Balkans and Turkey, the ETF has guided and supported the Western Balkans researchers to participate and present papers in this European Conference. In order to disseminate the findings from these country studies, and to contribute to the international literature the local researchers will also submit their papers for publication in refereed academic journals such as the European Journal of Education.
The papers in this Round Table present the findings of a set of country case studies on the preparation of teachers for inclusive education in the Western Balkans. Current changes in education in this region (Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Croatia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Kosovo (as defined by UNSCR 1244), Montenegro, and Serbia) are strongly influenced by their aspirations to join the European Union. In this perspective, increased attention by policy-makers, planners and teacher educators to all learners in these contexts of diversity is considered essential for inclusive education and social justice.
The researchers from the Western Balkans will reflect on how teachers may best be prepared to promote inclusive education in these contexts. They will consider how their work might contribute towards social justice and social cohesion. They will also reflect on their experiences of conducting the studies and the challenge of research capacity development in the region. Prof Pavel Zgaga from the University of Ljubljana and Alison Closs, Honorary Fellow from the University of Edinburgh, who acted as mentors of the study, have kindly agreed to participate as discussants in this Round Table. This is a valuable contribution to the session considering the mentors' extensive knowledge and experience of both the topic and the region.
