LEESBURG, Fla. - Leesburg police shot and killed a man Tuesday morning during an altercation following a traffic stop, officials said.
Carlos Domingo Oquendo was shot around 11 a.m. on Lucerne Circle near Euclid Street in Leesburg.
According to police, officers James Dunagan and Gustavo Escalante were conducting a traffic stop on a blue Toyota that was driving "evasively" and turned onto Lucerne Circle, a dead-end street.
Police said the officers gave repeated commands for the driver, later identified as Oquendo, to exit his vehicle and show his hands, but he refused to comply.
Oquendo then put the car in reverse and accelerated toward Dunagan, striking a tree and Escalante's marked patrol vehicle, Leesburg police said. Dunagan fired at Oquendo during the incident, striking him at least once, police said.
Oquendo was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead a short time later.
Dunagan, who's been with the Leesburg Police Department since 1996, was placed on administrative leave, which is standard policy after a shooting. Escalante has been with the department since 2010.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement will investigate the shooting.
Neighbors tell Local 6 they saw a blue car tucked away under the trees and police with their guns drawn.
"The suspect was in the car. He was kind of like slumped over, guess you would say not moving," Tijuana Jones said.

Jan 25: Regulating Innovation: How the Patent and Trademark Office Intends to Create Adjudication from Scratch
Sponsored by: The Program on Information Justice and Intellectual Property and The Administrative Law Review
The passage of the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act -- the most sweeping change to our Nation's patent laws since the 1950s -- granted authority to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to create a new trial-like process, whereby anyone may challenge an issued patent. Thus, the Office is tasked with creating a new post-grant review process, formulating new rules of procedure, and issuing rulemaking or guidance in less than a year. This symposium explores the rulemaking that will be required at the agency level, the implementation of the new trial-like process, and industry reaction to the proposed changes. It will explore whether the review process will help, or hurt, certain industries, as well as the patent process in general.

Hello, i just started reading a wxPython tutorial and got an error when i tried to add a menubar and some menuitems.
I run the script and the menubar doesn't appear, only the maximize button, etc. When i close the window it prompts this error message:
(python:2858): LIBDBUSMENU-GLIB-WARNING **: Trying to remove a child that doesn't believe we're it's parent.
Funny thing is, when i run it as sudo it works just fine. I read in a forum that this has something to do with Unity's "Global Menu" but didn't find out much about it and i'm not that familiar with linux to be messing around with configuration files yet.
Anyone got this problem and figured out how to solve it?
I'm running Ubuntu 12.10, Python 2.7.3 and wxPython 220.127.116.11

The Mitzvos include those dealing with marriage and family institutions, restoration of lost property, safety codes for buildings, issues related to sexual fidelity and immorality, holiness, vows, slaves, divorce, kindness to the poor, kindness to animals and more.
In this past week's study of Pirkei Avot, Simon the Tzadik teaches (I:2) that "the world depends upon three things: Torah, avoda (service); & gemilut chassadim (acts of kindness)."
He could have just said "Torah" and that would have covered everything. Maimonides, seeming to sense this, understands the term Torah as "chochma," wisdom in its broader generic sense, not just as the specific body of teachings contained in our religious tradition. Gemilus chassadim, Maimonides teaches, are representative of the development of the personality; how a person relates to other people is a reflection of their own inner development and achievement. Avoda is understood by Maimonides as the observance of the mitzvot of the Torah, which is an essential attribute of one's relationship to G-d.
The Torah portion has all of these categories blended together in the presentation of the mitzvot.
The Torah teaches that all areas of human expression and endeavor are essential to human development as are all areas of human experience. Thus all of the Torah's mitzvot present a system that functions synergistically in one's quest for a relationship with G-d, and are essential for the balanced harmonious growth of every human being.

Print A tradition of 3 generations. Boulet Boots have been creating quality boots since 1933. Original founder Georges-Alidor Boulet established "G.A. Boulet, Inc." in Quebec, Canada which eventually became Boulet Boots. The small town, with a population of roughly four thousand, was known their quality of labor and was known as "The Leather Town" because of it's production of quality leather good and shoes. Boulet Boots would definitely benefit from that work ethic and reputation. Since Boulet Boots was producing some of the highest quality boots at the time, the Canadian government commissioned Boulet Boots to produce all of their military footwear during World War II. In the 1960s, the next generation of Boulet's: Roger, Reynald and Robert assumed responsibility of the company. A company they had been working at since they were very young boys. With that move came the next step in the progression of this storied company. Boulet Boots became the first company in Canada to produce cowboy boots. They continue to specialize in 100% Goodyear Welt construction. In time, third generation Boulet Boots owners, Pierre, Guy and Louis ensure the company maintains their tradition of excellence which makes Boulet one of the best boot makers in the country. Boulet Cowboy Boots are sold in over 15 countries and their durability and comfort is know by cowboys all over the world.

How Tony Woke Mona!
Mona and Tony were sitting in their classroom, attending a lecture on English Poetry of the 15th Century. Mona had had a heavy lunch during her break, and was ready to doze off and Tony decided to play a prank on her to wake her up! He took her textbook and hid it somewhere. When Mona's eyelids fluttered briefly to give the teacher an impression of attention, she noticed something amiss on her desk... now her eyes were as big as saucers!
She immediately looked at Tony accusingly, "Where is my textbook?" she hissed desperate not to arouse any attention from her teacher.
Tony wanted to break the "Mona-Tony" (monotony!), and so instead of just telling her where, he gave her a chit which read:
After a lot of head-banging, head-scratching and head-aching, all done in absolute silence inside her head, Mona finally got the answer and also her textbook.
Where did Mona find the book?
AnswerTony's message read, "Look under your chair!" Take one letter from each end of the line and rewrite to get the actual sentence.
Mona skillfully pretended to sneeze, broke the "Mona-Tony" of the classroom and skillfully whisked her book back on the table!

Groups want California officials to make labeling GMO's law
On the first day of the 2014 legislature, Californians For Genetically Engineered Food Labeling are calling on State Assembly Members and Senators to take leadership on, and enact legislation in 2014 to require labeling of genetically engineered foods. Polls show that Californians want to know if their foods contain GMO ingredients because of concerns about potential health risks and the rise of "super weeds." Proponents say it it is due to the widespread use of GMO crops engineered to withstand heavy doses of herbicides.
Opponents say the labeling is too costly to manufacturers and will only raise the cost of food. Both sides agree the fight for this issue is far from over.

Braintree Town eased into the semi-finals of the Essex Senior Cup with a 3-1 win against Harlow Town at the Amlin Stadium.
The game got the go-ahead after a 6.30pm pitch inspection, but the playing surface still looked very heavy and made things tough for the players.
There was little chance for too much flowing football, but Braintree proved too good in the end for their Ryman League division one north visitors.
Boss Alan Devonshire chose to field a strong team, with six of his starting 11 having been in the side that lost 1-0 at Woking in the Skrill Premier on Saturday.
They responded in the right way, but had to come from behind to win.
Harlow took the lead in the 22nd minute when Alex Read took advantage of some hesitancy in the Braintree defence and fired past Nathan McDonald in the home goal.
However, the visitors were gradually pushed back and both Exodus Geohaghon and Dan Holman should have done better with chances in front of goal.
There was plenty of endeavour from the Iron players, but the final touch was lacking until skipper Kenny Davis muscled his way through a couple of challenges and fired home from eight yards just before half-time.
Having got on level terms, Braintree went on to dominate the second half and after a Holman effort went just wide and James Mulley forced Harlow keeper James May into a good save, they went ahead for the first time in the tie.
In the 65th minute, Jordan Cox, who had come on as a substitute for Holman only three minutes before, scored a brilliant solo goal when he collected the ball in the area, turned his marker and unleashed a fierce shot that gave May no chance.
And Cox played his part in Braintree's third as well.
With Harlow looking for an equaliser, Cox broke and had his heels clipped in the box by Harlow defender Darren Williams.
For denying a goalscoring opportunity, Williams was issued with a red card and Sean Marks stepped forward to slam the penalty home to complete a straightforward win.

"The wedding programs turned out great & the quality of the paper was really good! I was amazed at how fast that we recieved the programs in the mail! The only part of the program that I did not like is that the back is blank and that you cannot add any photos. Otherwise, this is a great program, thanks for doing such a great job paper divas!"
"The programs are very vibrant & the paper is great quality! The consultants did everything I requested plus they allowed me to add a friends & family section to the back of the programs. This was my 3rd order with WPD and I have been extremely satisfied!"
"Beautiful card but I would have preferred the text on the inside to be darker. It was a little hard to see with it so light."
"The quality of the card is beautiful. Everyone who has seen the program has remarked on the quality and design. We had wanted a specail note added to the back of the program which they were able to do without any problem. We were very happy!"

Cessation deservedly sat atop plenty of best-of lists for that year and was a mammoth, hypnotizing album, a very welcome slab of churning dirges and sweeping riffs that curved towards the darkly contemplative...

Adobe and Print/HOW Design magazines went to some of our favorite designers with this challenge: can you take work that you originally designed for print, and, using Adobe Flash Catalyst CS5, take the concepts to the web as expressive, fully interactive projects?
Three designers/design agencies stepped to up the task: Design Army from Washington, DC, Triboro Design from Brooklyn, NY, and Nicholas Felton from New York City. None had used Flash Catalyst before. The Flash Catalyst team gave them a demo, a Classroom in a Book, and links to free online learning resources. The challenge was on.
And the results were wonderful.
The original print work can be seen in the latest edition of HOW Design magazine just now hitting the streets. The final Flash Catalyst projects, along with comments from the designers on their experience, can be see on the HOW website.
We think the results speak for themselves.

The Rashomon Effect is the phenomenon by which observers of an event can produce very different but entirely plausible accounts of what happened. This is because every person has a unique set of life experiences that cause him to pay attention to things in his own way. Physical position and personal relationship to the event, as well as psychological makeup, determine how a person will perceive it. This is one reason why eyewitness testimony can be so unreliable.
For example, two fans are at the same baseball game. They are rooting for opposite teams. Once the game is over, the fan of the winning team is likely to have a very different memory than the fan of the losing team, even though they were watching the same game.

Professional Pilot
Thrilling flights. Panoramic views. Adventurous opportunities. The life of a professional pilot is full of exhilarating moments, but just like the properties of motion, you can't arrive at one point without starting from another. Kansas State Polytechnic's award-winning professional pilot program is the perfect place to begin your aviation journey - with more Master Certified Aviation Instructors than any other college or university in the nation, a premium fleet of 35 aircraft and flight training devices, and a large and active regional airport steps away from the classroom, your education and experience will far outreach the highest of expectation.
Within two weeks of starting the first semester, students have the ability to fly with CFIs. You can train for ratings ranging from solo through commercial on a diverse selection of aircraft starting with Cessna 172s, and then moving on to more complex aircraft including Bonanzas and Barons. Since the program is FAR 141 approved, students are allowed to meet the commercial instrument minimum flight hour requirement of 190 hours instead of 250 hours.
With the program's longstanding history at the university, Kansas State Polytechnic has developed and maintained numerous industry relationships with companies like ExpressJet - the largest regional air carrier in the country, FlightSafety International, Air Associates of Kansas and Desert Jet, just to name a few. These highly valued relationships ensure a level of comfort for the companies with our students, encouraging them to continue to seek out Kansas State Polytechnic professional pilots for internships and careers.

… Written by the Turkish writer Adnan Oktar (under the pen name of Harun Yahya), the Atlas offers an Islamic version of creationism and blames Charles Darwin for modern terrorism–including the 9/11 attacks. A recent visitor to the office tells me that the Atlas is impossible to miss, both because of its huge size–it weighs in at 12 pounds and has nearly 800 pages–and because it is prominently displayed on a stand at the entrance to the room.2008-08-06 00:48:31
The Atlas of Creation can be bought for $99 (plus shipping and handing) through a link from Harun Yahya's website. A summary says:
"This book provides the reader with not only such information as what fossils are and where and how they are found, but also a closer examination of a variety of fossil specimens, millions of years old, that are still able to declare, "We never underwent evolution; we were created." The fossils discussed and illustrated in this book are just a few examples of the hundreds of millions of specimens that prove the fact of Creation. And even these few are enough to prove that the theory of evolution is a major hoax and deception in the history of science."
… A caption from the book, below a photograph of one of the planes striking the World Trade Center, reports: "No matter what ideology they may espouse, those who perpetrate terror over the world are, in reality, Darwinists. Darwinism is the only philosophy that places a value on–and thus encourages–conflict."
Darwinism is also to blame for fascism and communism. As the Atlas explains, it "is the root of various ideologies of violence that have spelled disaster to mankind in the 20th century." …

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 30/7/2014 (1120 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Inspired by FIFA fever, the Washington Post published a feature on the sandwiches of some competing nations.
In Winnipeg, we need no special events to celebrate our rich ethnicity. Or at least I don't -- I love sandwiches, I'm grateful for the opportunity to indulge in so many international choices, and the following are just a sampling of some of the city's finest.
VIENA DO CASTELO is a grocery store, with a kitchen that prepares delicious Portuguese specialties, either for takeout (the mother lode is on Saturday), or for eating at one of six little tables. There are always daily specials, and there can't be many better bargains than the sandwiches, at $3 to $5 each, or $2 more with a bowl of soup du jour (the classic potato-kale, for instance). They vary daily, but there's always a bifana of wine and garlic marinated pork loin with sautéed onions (spicy sauce optional) and chourizo sausage with cheese baked into a bun. Also, often, they offer pulled piri piri-spiked roast chicken.
It would be a sin not to try one of the superb pastries -- the ne plus ultra of egg tarts, or the gorgeous chocolate mocha cupcake ($2 each). 819 Sargent Ave., 204-415-4615.
Banh mi Vietnamese subs are mushrooming everywhere, even as influences on non-Vietnamese burgers and sandwiches. However they are at their possible best, most authentic and cheapest ($4 to $4.50 each) at KHAN HOA, a little butcher shop where 10-inch crusty rolls are smeared with paté, loaded with the meat of your choice, enlivened by the sweet-tart crunch of marinated carrot and daikon strips and a squirt of hot sauce. My favourite filling is the assorted Vietnamese cold cuts, (No. 1), but others are good too -- grilled beef (No. 2), grilled pork (No. 3) chicken (No. 4), pork meatball (No. 5), and barbecued pork meatball (No. 6). Communication is minimal so it's best to order ahead, by phone and by number. 698 Sargent Ave., 204-504-7688.
There's also no shortage of Middle Eastern stuffed pitas, but three of the best can be found in the simplest and smallest of places. BEST PIZZA AND DONAIR does have a few seats but the food is mainly for takeout, and the donair was one of the best I've found. It has slices of marinated, spit-roasted beef and lamb tucked into a pliant, puffy pita (it won't come apart in your hands), along with lettuce, onions and tomatoes -- ask for garlic sauce instead of the sweet sauce. Equally flavourful are chicken shawarma with the same trimmings, plus pickled turnips ($7.99 each) and the ground lamb kebab sandwich, which includes excellent hummus as well ($8.99). 1469 Pembina Hwy., 204-275-0444.
The venerable BISTRO DANSK has been serving open-face Danish sandwiches on great house-made breads since 1977. The fruit-garnished portions are unbelievably generous -- dark, Danish bread piled high with moist, savoury liver pate and topped with back bacon and sautéed mushrooms; and slices of the house baguette heaped with tiny shrimp in mayonnaise ($11.95 each). It's not exclusively Danish, but another must is the exquisite hazelnut pie. 63 Sherbrook St., 204-775-5662.
Bistro Dansk may be one of our oldest restaurants, but the Winnipeg Jewish-style shaved corned beef on rye pre-dates it by countless decades. It's available everywhere, including BERNSTEIN'S, but they also offer two terrific and locally rare sandwiches of house-cured meats -- thick, hand-cut slices of warm brisket ($8.75) and thin-sliced pickled tongue ($6). You can have the renowned potato latkes at $2.25 for one, or $5.75 for three, or, as add-ons at $2.75, a cup of savoury soup, tangy coleslaw and/or excellent skinny fries. 1700 Corydon Ave., 204-488-4552.
Cuban sandwiches are also rare, but one version is available at the MARION STREET EATERY, where grilled Italian bread is spread with grainy Dijon mustard, and packed with ham, roast pork, Gruyere and dill pickles. At $12.50 it comes with a choice of soup du jour, a green or caesar salad, excellent fries or potato wedges, but for $2 more you can change your du jour to a crock of terrific onion soup. 393 Marion St., 204-233-2843.
Panini are ubiquitous, but nowhere are they more authentic than CAFFERIA 360's panino. There's only one but it's a great one, not grilled flat like most, but a warm crusty bun filled with mozzarella, mortadella and superb aged prosciutto di parma which -- like most of the edibles here -- are imported directly from Italy ($7.99). It's huge, but save room for the delectable (also imported) sfogliatella puff pastry with a ricotta filling ($4) and, of course, one of the fabulous Italian coffees. 1459 Corydon Ave., 204-489-8990.
SIMON'S Milanesa Especial is an Argentine sandwich of Italian inspiration and epic proportions, which layers crisply fried breaded beef with ham, mozzarella, tomato, onion and baked eggs ($16, including a side of fries). Finish Argentine style with the luscious torta mil hojas of crisp pastry layered with dulce de leche, walnuts and whipped cream ($6). 513 St. Mary's Rd., 204-231-2756
THE CRUSTY BUN is a marvellous German bakery, with a small café attached where you can have a schnitzelburger -- a huge slice of breaded fried pork loin tucked into one of the wonderful buns ($7.95). Of course dessert here is essential -- anything from the rich bee sting layers of cake and custard to the tea cake of crunchy puff pastry ($1.65 to $3.45). 1026 St. Mary's Rd., 204-257-7311.
All the above sandwiches had their origins in other countries, and, for that matter, so did the clubhouse -- in the U.S. It may not be ethnic but I couldn't resist ending with one terrific twist on the classic -- OSBORNE VILLAGE CAFE'S massive Club Maison, packed inches high with fresh-roasted turkey, cheddar, bits of cranberries and (the master stroke) several thick slices of braised pork belly instead of bacon ($9). 160 Osborne St., 204-452-9824, Ext. 217.

A basic understanding of the Flash authoring interface, working with symbols and creating simple timeline animations is recommended.
Adobe Flash Professional CS6 introduces a new tool called the Sprite Sheet Generator. This feature lets you generate a sprite sheet from any symbol or image on the Stage or in the document Library. Sprite sheets are an efficient way to add looping animations to games because they can be rendered using the GPU.
This article examines how to convert a looping animation into a sprite sheet using the Flash Sprite Sheet Generator.
Flash is one of the best tools for creating interactive content—a groovy crossroad where animation and interactivity purposely collide with beautiful results. If there's one thing I've noticed in the past year, it's been the undeniable shift in web technology. We've all been hearing the term "HTML5" being tossed around and less talk about "Flash". I've even heard people say that HTML5 is going to be the true Flash killer. As an animator, I've enjoyed using Flash for well over a decade; but am I worried that the future of Flash is in question? Not at all. No technology lasts forever, but Flash is here to stay, at least for a little while longer; and it's clear Adobe thinks so, too.
Before creating the sprite sheet, you need an animation. I've chosen to animate a character I designed for the Starling Framework (see Figure 1).
The bird avatar for the Starling Framework was conceived using the Adobe Photoshop Touch App, uploaded to the Adobe Creative Cloud, and then imported and redrawn in Adobe Flash Professional CS6. As I drew the bird using Flash's vector tools, I broke down each part into separate assets and converted them to symbols (see Figure 2).
The next step was to create the wing animation. I double-clicked the wing symbol and animated it using a method known as frame-by-frame animation, where each key frame is a new drawing (see Figure 3).
I copied the instance of the symbol containing the wing animation and pasted it to a new layer below the body of the bird. I then flipped it horizontally and positioned it for the bird's left wing. To add a slight sense of depth, I selected the instance of this symbol and applied a subtle color effect. The idea here is to darken it slightly to push it back from the rest of the body parts (see Figure 4).
I also animated the entire bird floating up and down in sync with the direction the wings are flapping (see Figure 5).
Now that the animation is complete, Flash can generate the sprite sheet. With the symbol instance containing the animation on the Stage, right-click over it and select Generate Sprite Sheet from the pop-up menu (see Figure 6).
The alternative way to create a sprite sheet is to right-click over the symbol listed in the Library panel and select Generate Sprite Sheet from the pop-up menu (see Figure 7).
The Generate Sprite Sheet will open in its own panel (see Figure 8).
Select image dimensions appropriate to your animation (see Figure 9):
From the Image Format drop-down menu, select between PNG 8 bit, PNG 24 bit, PNG 32 bit and JPEG formats. If optimization is a concern, you can choose PNG 8 bit format with transparency to bring the file size down considerably (see Figure 10).
You can also set a custom background color for your sprite sheet by clicking the Background color swatch and selecting a new color from the palette, or mix your own by clicking the small mixer icon in the upper right corner of the color palette panel (see Figure 11).
The Generate Sprite Sheet panel is then updated to reflect the new background color change (see Figure 12).
The Algorithm setting provides for Basic or MaxRects.
To prepare the sprite sheet for incorporation in a game, select the appropriate data format (see Figure 14). The data format describes the x, y, width, height and other info for each frame of animation in the sprite sheet. The developer uses this data to produce an animation from the sprite sheet for whatever framework they are using. You can even create your own data format using JSFL if you don't see one here that you need.
You can preview the sprite animation at any time by clicking the Preview tab above the sprite window (see Figure 15).
If you wish, you can also visit the Animation Learning Guide for Flash, which explains how to use all of these animation types in Flash Professional CS6.
Integrating your sprite sheet into The Starling Framework: if you haven't already, download the Starling package. For more information about the Starling Framework, and specifically, how to incorporate a sprite sheet into a game engine, read Thibault Imbert's Adobe Developer Connection article Introducing the Starling 2D framework.

Since we are now in Hijri 1430, 30 years have passed since the Hijri date provided by our Prophet (saas). In other words, as al-Barzanji describes, there are at least another 10 years until Hazrat Mahdi (as) is recognized and until his spiritual and intellectual dominion over the world.
The way that some people suggest, on the basis of no reliable evidence and no hadiths, that "Hazrat Mahdi (as) will be immediately recognized as of Hijri 1400, and everyone will at once know that he is Hazrat Mahdi (as)" is a complete contravention of the ideas of Sunni scholars. Anyone making such a claim is opposing the belief of the Ahl al-Sunnah. That is because, for instance, the great Sunni scholar Al-Barzanji made this statement about the time needed for Hazrat Mahdi (as) to be recognized following his appearance:
(The following extract is from page 301 of the 10th Turkish edition of Muhammad Ibn Rasul al-Hussain al-Barzanji's Al-Isha'ah li-ashrat al-sa'ah translated into Turkish by Naim Erdogan.)
FOUR, FIVE OR EVEN TEN YEARS ARE REGARDED AS THE FIRST YEARS OF THE CENTURY. ACCORDINGLY, THAT HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL APPEAR SEVEN, NINE OR THIRTY YEARS BEFORE THE HUNDREDTH YEAR IS NO OBSTACLE TO HIS COMING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE CENTURY... THE SAME APPLIES IF HIS APPEARANCE IS AFTER THAT PERIOD. (Al-Barzanji, Al-Isha'ah li-ashrat al-sa'ah, p. 301)
Al-Barzanji thus states that even 4, 5 or 10 years after the year 1400 according to the Islamic calendar can be accepted as the early 1400s. Indeed, as Imam Rabbani says;
AT THE HEAD OF EACH CENTURY, ALLAH SENDS A MUJADDID among the scholars of this community who revives the Law of Allah [the essence of Qur'anic moral values and the Sunnah of our Prophet (saas)]. (Imam Rabbani, Letters of Rabbani, 1/520)
That HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL BE RECOGNIZED 7, 9 OR EVEN 30 YEARS BEFORE OR AFTER THE HIJRI YEAR 1400 is no obstacle to his coming in the year 1400. Even if these situations do prevail Hazrat Mahdi (as) will still have emerged at the beginning of Hijri 1400.
This statement by Al-Barzanji, a reliable Sunni scholar, is an exceedingly significant reply to those to seek to cover up, shroud or conceal the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (as) by making irrational and illogical claims along the lines of "Since Hazrat Mahdi (as) was not immediately identified by people in Hijri 1400, he has not appeared, and although 30 years have passed since Hijri 1400 the great portents have still not come about, meaning that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will not be coming in this century but will happen in some other century…" Even if Hazrat Mahdi (as) appears before Hijri 1400 or 7, 9 or 30 years after it, he is still the awaited Great Mahdi (as). By Allah's leave, none of these cases can alter this truth revealed in trustworthy hadiths of our Prophet (saas).
(The caption below is the relevant section from pp. 88, 89 and 90 of Dr. Suat Arusan's Turkish translation of Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi's Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman)

In an unexpected and rather transparent gambit to dethrone Mike Matheny as the undisputed king of #MCM (Manager Candy Monday), the Detroit Tigers have hired Brad Ausmus as the team's next manager. Well played, Tigers, but as Ric Flair famously said "To be the man, you must beat the man." While both men are certainly easy on the cleat chasing eyes, there can be only one #MCM champ.
The challenger: – Bradley David Ausmus, age 44, 5'11", and 200 pounds. Played 18 seasons as a big league catcher, won 3 Gold Glove awards, and has a distinguished and confident aura.
The champion: Michael Scott Matheny – age 43, 6'3″ tall, and 210 pounds. Played 13 seasons as a catcher, won 4 Gold Glove awards, and has that LL Bean model hair and swoon factor going for him.
Matheny looks like the handsome dentist that has ladies flossing every day and twice on Sundays. Ausmus looks like someone who just tried pitching a tent on a beach while filming a Cialis commercial. When it comes to the 162-game grind, which would you rather have calling plays from your dugout?

In its 118 years, the Ramona Town Hall has been a library, movie theater, high school, courthouse, dance hall, dentist's office, bank and charred hulk. On Sunday, when its restored west wing reopened to the public, Ramona's indispensable structure became Party Central.
Break out the champagne!
Or not. "You can't have any alcohol in here," said W.T. "Woodie" Kirkman, 44, president of the Town Hall board. "Or obscene material. And we have to keep the building in good repair."
In 1894, Augustus and Martha Barnett gave this Romanesque/Mission Revival-style landmark to Ramona's citizens. The deed was in perpetuity; so were conditions that are still followed to the Victorian letter — more or less. Barring smut and booze? Easy. Maintaining one of the Southwest's largest free-standing adobes? A challenge.
In the last 25 years, the all-volunteer Town Hall board has battled nature, an arsonist and the economy. In 2008, the board's bank account held less than $50.
Somehow, though, they kept moving forward. At Sunday's party, 100 locals enjoyed cupcakes and unspiked punch in the east wing, then heard speeches and period music in the west wing. In that room, one wall is lined with antique wooden pharmacy drawers, another decorated with portraits of the Barnetts, recently executed by Ramona artist Judy Nachazel.
The 2,800-square-foot main hall remains cordoned off, still in need of repair. For Sharon Davis, this sight was more inspiring than sad.
"We're only $2 million away," Davis, an interior designer and Ramona's "honorary mayor," told her fellow partygoers. "We have the money — it's just in your pockets!"
The Town Hall has always rested on a foundation of community support. Board members, who once accepted nominal $1-a-year payments, now work for free. When the 19th-century adobe needed a 20th-century seismic retrofit, costs were covered by government grants and private donations. That massive remodeling job was well under way when, on Jan. 28, 1995, an arsonist set fire to the hall.
Repairs, including a sprinkler system, exhausted the hall's finances — even before its insurance premiums quintupled. Strapped for cash, the board closed the hall in 2002. Then they got to work.
They raised money with talent shows. They peddled T-shirts and coffee mugs. The Ramona Sentinel newspaper sponsored the honorary mayor's contest, bestowing the title on the resident raising the most money for the hall's restoration. (Davis has won twice; when she joked Sunday about siphoning another $2 million from local bank accounts, she was only half-kidding.)
In 2009, the east wing reopened. The west wing followed Sunday.
"That's a very good sign," said Marco Jaregui, 58, a Ramona native who attended the celebration. "I know it needs a lot of work still, but I think this building needs to be in the public use. That was the Barnetts' original intent."
They also wanted the building available to everyone in town, which explains its 19th-century rates. You can rent a wing of the hall for $5 an hour, although there's a $10, two-hour minimum.
"It's supposed to be a community hall," explained board President Kirkman.
A community hall that, now more than ever, needs community support.
"We may have to revisit those fees," Kirkman admitted.

Did you know?
Kamfersdam outside Kimberley hosts huge flocks of pink flamingos.
Blood, sweat, tears, triumph, murder and despair ... such are the foundation stones of Kimberley, diamond capital of the world and gateway to the Kalahari and Diamond Fields of the Northern Cape.
Diamonds were first discovered in 1871 on Colesberg Koppie. It triggered rush fever which led to frantic mass diggings, culminating in what is now the Big Hole, the largest artificial construction to be found anywhere in the world.
Around this 365m-deep pit Kimberley sprang into being, impelled by the diamond rush that drew 30 000 miners to the diamond fields of South Africa. As time went by, prospectors' tents and shacks were replaced by tree-lined avenues graced by Victorian mansions, as Kimberley developed into a modern city.
A good starting point to relive these times is the Big Hole and Kimberley Mine Museum. After watching an introductory film at the visitor's centre, peer into the depths of the Big Hole from the Viewing Platform.
Admire the 616, the world's biggest diamond crystal, at the Real Diamond Display. See the old mining machines in the Pulsator Building.
Experience the mining conditions of yesteryear in the Underground Mine Experience, a recreated mine shaft. Then head on down to the Old Town, with its preserved and restored period buildings. Round off a memorable day with a drink at the famous Diggers' Tavern.
Thirsty for more? Kimberley has numerous other attractions. Walk through the historical city centre, take in the museums, monuments and art galleries in old stately homes, or explore the city's haunted corners on the Kimberley ghost trail.
Then prepare yourself to experience the rest of the Diamond Fields region. The Vaal River diggings at Barkly West; old Boer War battlefields at Modder River and Magersfontein; the still operational Bultfontein mine; all this and more beckons to the diamond fields.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Ohio lawmakers are considering training and certification requirements for a new group of professionals who will be available to guide consumers through the new health insurance exchange.
These so-called health navigators, who may work for community groups, for example, will help educate consumers and small businesses about the new online markets created by the federal health care law. Through these online exchanges, consumers will be able to buy individual private policies and apply for government subsidies to help pay their premiums.
The exchanges open for business Jan. 1, 2014, but open enrollment for insurance plans begins Oct. 1 of next year.
Ohio's bill requires navigators to pass criminal background checks and specifies what navigators cannot do, such as sell, solicit or negotiate health insurance. Rep. Barbara Sears, the bill's sponsor, says the measure would serve as a blueprint as the state moves forward to meet the federal requirements.
A state legislative committee cleared the proposal on Wednesday. The full House is expected to vote on the measure Wednesday afternoon. The state Department of Insurance supports the bill.
Ohio has opted for a partnership with the federal government to run the exchange but doesn't intend to run its own navigator program. An official with the insurance department told lawmakers Ohio can regulate navigators without running its own program.
"Running the navigator program and regulating those participating in it could create a difficult, if not inappropriate, relationship," said Michael Farley, department assistant director for legislative affairs.
Farley said the bill would protect consumers and give those who wish to have navigator programs the information needed to hire and train the health care guides.
Consumer advocates agree that navigators should be regulated, but say the bill is flawed.
Nita Carter of the Universal Health Care Action Network of Ohio said the measure needs to be flexible enough to allow navigators to help people enroll in the exchange.
"We're going to have navigators in our communities and people's homes, and they might not be able to just stop the process and go find a broker or an insurance agent," said Carter, the group's health equity director. "We just don't want it that restrictive."
Carter's group would like to see a clearer picture on the role of navigators.
"So this is the beginning, but this doesn't even begin to get us where we need to go," she said.

Carl Ekstrom makes some neat ones. Wears funky hats too.
It is finless so it may not fit 100% in the convo but you can see how his front side is more powerful when that elongated tail engages with the wave and how he's able to slide out on the backside.
More importantly... its a perfect wave.
1986 or so 7'6" T&C asym. Dave Wallace shape. Marvin Foster rode some of these things back in the day in real surf. Don't know if any footage is around but it is an example of a great surfer shredding any board he is handed no doubt. This one is virgin, bright ass neon airbrush by M. Townsend (?), western red cedar stringer, even has purple/fuschiaAttachment 9179Attachment 9180 metallic auto paint on the rails. Probably a trade show board from the 80's is my guess.
Looks like he is struggling to holding a line like every other finless ride. Standing back foot on the corner with butt a few centimeters off the deck. I don't know if the asym outline makes any difference because he never sets the other rail, only slides it. Weak turns and shallow tracks- the opposite of powerful surfing. Be nice to witness a finned asym in some A-frames under a legit shredder.
Slightly asymmetrical with subtle features that serve a purpose = yes
Extremely asymmetrical to the point that it looks like it belongs in a contemporary art museum rather than in the water = no
Burton snowboards made an Asym board back in the day that I rode it was extremely fast and fun. But they faded away? (the Asym snowboard design)
Here is a vid of a guy on an asymmetric. I don't know if this is what you would call ripping . . .
I don't "rip" because I am not good enough . . . I just try to make a few turns on a wave. And I don't have enough varied experience to do detailed board comparisons . . . I bought my asymmetric board because it looks cool and sounded like a neat concept. My experience with it in Rhody is that it is fast down the line, and turns nicely front and back side. Is it a better ride for me than my symmetric fish? Not that I can detect, but I am only a middling surfer. I would never tell people "oh you gotta have one, they are the bomb," but I like mine because of the novelty factor and I can surf no worse on it than on my other boards in the right conditions. I am not sure I would like a really flat fish in Jersey beach breaks when they jack up fast and then close out . . .i remember lots of short boards at Belmar, Spring lake picking off the inside breaks. But for crumbly waves like we often get at some of the Rhody beaches a fish is a nice alternative to a longboard.
The only real value to them is the novelty factor. Why build a planing hull with less planing surface on one side? Lets screw up that precious planing surface with a bunch of crazy rail curves. Wack the long rail off the asyms and call it a day. IMHO there is more to learn from the mini simmons type hulls than asyms, especially in little wave shortboards. Shorten and straighten lines between the feet with a liberal dose of concave to pop it up on top quickly. Let the asyms die along with that acid trip fueled bonzer thing (Campbell bros.?), the least versatile surfboards ever devised by mankind. Less graphic design shaping and more hydrodynamics with the goal being skim, carve, bowl ride, launch on both lefts and rights, junk or quality surf ?
I would like to try an asym, but not around here on the east coast because its not often enough that we get good enough waves to have a really long ride to figure out the subtle differences. Imho
When you own a couple of boards with only one being asym, does transitioning to your normal shape take a while? Seems like it would be kind of weird

Chair's Corner
Welcome to the Wright State University Chemistry Department website. I am very excited about the recent developments within the department and how this has positioned us for further success. Recently, we have renovated completely the vast majority of our teaching laboratories and all of our research and administrative spaces. The result is a cutting-edge environment for research and teaching. The recent addition of two faculty members and more than fifteen new instruments for teaching and research has bolstered further our capabilities, especially in the nanotechnology and computational arenas. Coupled with our long-standing strengths in applied areas such as macromolecular and environmental chemistries and our strong commitment to the traditional core areas, this provides a unique learning environment.
With 16 faculty, 4 support staff members, 80-100 undergraduate and 30-40 M.S. students annually, the department is sufficiently large to offer a current experience to our students, but small enough to provide an environment where each student is recognized as an individual.
I encourage you explore our website and to visit if you are in the area. I'd be delighted to show you around and tell you more about our programs, faculty and students.

A CARE home in Kidderminster is facing closure as part of a shake-up of social and intermediate health care in Wyre Forest.
The Grange, a council resource centre for older people, in Sutton Park Road, could face the axe next year according to a report put before board members of Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust, which has revealed Worcestershire County Council plans to close it, although councillors insist no decisions have yet been made.
The report said: "The council have indicated the Grange Nursing Home will close in spring, 2015 and patients with social care needs will be managed through different arrangements, designed to keep them at home."
Health leaders have hinted intermediate and social care currently provided at the Wyre Forest GP Unit and Cookley Ward, at Kidderminster Hospital and The Grange could be merged into a single-site care unit based at the hospital.
The nursing home has room for 35 residents and provides a rehabilitation service for older people who might be recovering from illness or other conditions such as dementia and physical disabilities, following a hospital stay or illness at home.
Conservative councillor Marcus Hart, county council cabinet member for health and wellbeing, said: "We are working with our health partners to agree the role that The Grange, Kidderminster, will take in meeting the health and care needs of older people in the county.
"It is important to note that some of the current funding for The Grange comes from the better care fund. The use of the fund in the future will be decided in agreement with all three NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) in the county.
"No decision about the future of The Grange has been made at this time."
Dr Simon Rumley, chairman and clinical lead for Wyre Forest CCG, said: "The CCG is looking at the best way to bring health and social care organisations together and deliver true integrated care in Wyre Forest, aiming to look after patients as close to their homes as possible.
"The Kidderminster Hospital site may be the centre of these exciting developments. As yet no decision has been taken on the future of The Grange."
The single-site care unit project will be further discussed by trust board members at a meeting in August, when six options drawn up, which range from doing nothing to building a new unit at the hospital site, will undergo financial scrutiny.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – In much the same way it started the season on Friday, the No. 12 Saint Leo women's tennis team took care of business in their second match of the season as they swept aside Southeastern (Fla.), 9-0 in opening weekend action from the Saint Leo Tennis Center.
It was a dominating effort as the Lions (2-0) only dropped a total of six sets to the visiting Fire (0-2). In doubles action, the Lions dropped just two points at no. 1 and one at no. 3 while handing the no. 2 double opponent a straight-sets defeat.
Today's victory, accompanied by yesterday's win over St. Thomas, see the Lions not having surrendered a team point in consecutive sweeps.
Saint Leo will have nearly a week to prepare for its next competition when they travel to Savannah, Ga. and take on Georgia College on Saturday, February 9.
For more information on the nationally ranked women's tennis team be sure to 'like' the Lions on Facebook and 'follow' Saint Leo on Twitter.

Accrued Vacation Pay
Full Video Transcript
Many employers offer their employees paid vacation time. Depending on the employer's policy, vacation may accrue slowly. For example an employee may earn one vacation day each month or after a certain amount of hours are worked. Employment policies also typically state how long you have to use your accrued vacation time. For instance, it may expire after two years. However, accrued vacation policies must adhere [to] state laws on the subject, which many people may not realize. State laws may even trump an employer's policy regarding how much you can accrue when it expires and even whether it can be cashed out when the employee leaves the company. For more information about vacation policies or accrued vacation time contact an employment attorney in your area today to learn more about your legal options.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Gov Rick Scott and the Florida Cabinet on Thursday approved the purchase of 1,578 acres in Clay County that will provide conservation value and military buffering for Camp Blanding as part of a Forever Florida Project.
The acquisition of this land is a collaborative effort between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and U.S. Department of Defense. The total cost of the 1,578 acres is $2.1 million, with the state paying $600,000 and the U.S. Department of Defense paying $1.5 million. Federal funding is available through a cooperative agreement between DEP and the Army National Guard Bureau.
"By approving this land acquisition, you continue to ensure the local and state economy will thrive, you will ensure these sensitive lands are conserved and citizens will be able to use them and will also ensure that our Army National Guard and other military units will have the environment to properly train and prepare our military men and women to protect Florida and our nation," said Lt. Gov Jennifer Carroll, who is a Clay County resident.
"This land provides environmental protection benefits as well as a buffer to aid the military in its preparation to protect Floridians," said DEP Secretary Herschel T. Vinyard Jr.
Public acquisition of this project will contribute to the Florida Forever goals by increasing the protection of Florida's biodiversity of species, the natural community and landscape as well as protecting, restoring and maintaining the quality and natural functions of land, water, and wetland systems of the state. There are four major blackwater streams from three major river basins originating within the Camp Blanding–Raiford Greenway project area, as well as several headwaters and tributaries. The purchase will also increase the amount of forestland necessary for continued natural resource management.
This land will provide a natural buffer to Camp Blanding's training center and allow soldiers and equipment the necessary training area, thereby limiting disruption to neighboring residents. It will limit development in the vicinity of Camp Blanding Joint Training Center, provide proper space for military ranges and ensure that Florida remains the most military friendly state in the country. The Florida Department of Military Affairs, Florida Armory Board will manage the property as a natural forested area.
