Algerian Labor Minister Tells Albawaba.com: Official Normalization with Israel 'Unthinkable'
By Hussein Da'ssa
Albawaba.com - Algiers
The Algerian Minister of Labor and Social Security, Abu Jarrah Sultani stressed that normalization with Israel at the official level in Algeria is "utterly unthinkable" unless Israel withdraws its forces to the lines of June 4th, 1967, in compliance with UN resolutions.
In an exclusive interview with Albawaba.com in Algiers, Sultani stressed that "until this condition is met, there will be neither dialogue, nor discussion at any level."
Minister Sultani, a member of Algerian Islamic Society Movement (Hamas), added that the Algerian President Abdul Aziz Bouteflika and the Algerian Minister of Foreign Affairs expressed this position on more that one occasion.
However, the minister believes that what he calls the Jewish thought has, to different degrees, reached many countries, including Algeria.
" The Jewish thought has spread not only in Algeria, but everywhere. It has found room for itself due to their propaganda and has been able to reshape public opinion in many countries.
"Frankly speaking, Algeria stands at the bottom of the list of the Arab countries influenced by that ideology," he added.
The minister was referring to a recent visit by Algerian journalists to Israel, which was met by angry reactions in the North African country and in the Arab world in general.
Sultani indicated that "this initiative started when some Algerian journalists visited Israel claiming to make press reports in Palestine, the occupied territories and in the center of the enemy's defense systems. This idea is possible from the medias point of view."
The Minister, nevertheless, said that it was not made certain that that the visit's aim was twisted to become "building relations with Israel."
"If we ever have proof of that, our position will clearly be different."
In response to questions regarding the social circumastances of the social classes of the Algerian people after 12 years of crisis, violence and terrorism, Sultani said: "the government's lifting of subsidy on basic consumers' items and the skyrocketing of prices has created many difficulties."
He said that , the middle class has completely disappeared as a result, adding that the Algerian society before 1988 consisted of five percent lower class, four percent high class and 91 percent used to fall in the middle class, and thus the society kept its balance then.
"This class disappeared and most of its members have become poor and we have gradually approached a society with 80 percent of its members belonging to the lower poor class.
According to the minister, the number of unemployed in Algeria is 2,300,000, and 12 million are classified as poor.
Sultani revealed that the Algerian government is now implementing a program of social integration through the adoption of a new vision by which consumer-oriented financing is transformed into investment-oriented financing and human resources development.
He stressed that the period between 1989 - 1999 witnessed the emergence of the so-called war nouveau riche, interest groups and economic mafia who exploited the crisis for their own benefits.
"I think these people will not have any impact on the government programs that are working towards containing the security crisis and implementing the law of civil rapport in order to achieve its objectives," Minister Sultani concluded.

Take time to delve into the outdoor activities along the River Po or in Parco del Valentino on the left bank of the river. Located between the Umberto I Bridge and the Isabella Bridge this is Turin's largest park.
Once a royal hunting reserve for the Savoy family, today it covers an area of some 550,000 square metres with pathways, flower beds and small woods. In summer months Parco del Valentino hosts an open-air cinema and is a place where the locals come to relax and enjoy the fresh air. No wonder it is known locally as Turin's green lung.
Just outside the city is Parco della Collina di Superga, one of the city's most beautiful green spaces. Here you'll find both Alpine and Mediterranean vegetation, such as oak, orchids and foxgloves. And atop this hill there are fine views over the city and the Basilica of Superga where many members of the Italian Royal family are buried.
You don't need to be a fitness freak to enjoy the natural wonders of Turin's beautiful parks and landscape either; there are activities for all, some active, some relaxed so take your pick and enjoy the green side of this city.

First 2 months(up to December 1st) done. We sit in 3rd in the Eastern Conference with 24 points, we have a record of 11-9-2(11-11). We have a very weak division with Boston right behind us with 23 points. Unbelieveably underrated Mike Riberio, (who I see preforms on any line in any GM mode for anyone all the time) leads are team in points with 22 in 22 games. He was playing on the 2nd line LW for most of the begining of the season but I moved him to the first line LW and now RW. I have my top 6 right now as Heater - Thorton - Riberio | Havlat - Cammy - Hemmer. Thorton has 18 points in 22 games, I need more from him.. Especially if we want to contend for the cup. Pick it up Big Joe! I thought I'd have a little bit of trouble scoring this year but I have a bunch of scoreres 85+ who should get it done. Most games I find are 2-1 losses ect and Lundy is holding us in there. Lundy is 10-10 but he is #7 in GAA and SV% in the league right now. Meanwhile Carle and Hainsey are scoring for us on Defence with 10 points(in 22 games).
More to come as we struggle through these tough times.

Zululand, KwaZulu-Natal - KFC has to reinstate and give backpay to an Empangeni employee who was fired for bringing non-halaal food to work.
Jabulani Cele resumes work at the KFC branch in the Zululand town on Monday.
The Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) has overturned his employer's decision to fire him.
The CCMA made its finding public on Friday.
It ordered Colefax Trading (Pty) Ltd and Yum Restaurants to allow Cele to return to work before 1pm on Monday.
Colefax and Yum own a string of KFC restaurants around the country. Because they follow Islamic laws, they have a policy that forbids employees from bringing food to work.
The commission ordered that Cele be paid R5 200 – backpay for two months – and that he be allowed to bring his own food to work.
KFC chief marketing officer Dave Timm confirmed Cele's reinstatement.
The trouble started when Cele, 31, refused to submit to the rule and waded into hot water in March when he took his lunchbox, which contained phuthu and bean curry, into the KFC branch where he worked.
He was immediately handed a letter of final written warning, which he refused to sign, maintaining he had a right to bring his food to work.
He was suspended and later hauled before a disciplinary hearing, which found him guilty of breaching the policy.
He was fired from his job, which he had held for six years.
KFC Empangeni provides its employees with two pieces of chicken a day.
Cele said he did not like chicken, which was why he preferred to bring his own lunch.
Timm said in a statement that KFC did not have a policy that prohibited staff from bringing food into its stores.
"It does have strict policies requiring staff to keep their food in designated areas to prevent the cross-contamination of foods with those prepared and served to customers," he said.
He added that the policy that led to Cele being fired was in line with global best practice in food safety.
He could not say whether it would be reviewed in the light of the latest development.
The CCMA ruled: "The applicant may take his food to work subject to the respondent's policies, which will be drafted in consultation with the union."
Bheki Shabane, provincial secretary of the United Chemical Industries Mining Electrical State Health and Aligned Workers Union, said Cele's employer had pledged to consult the union before passing policies that affected workers.
"We were concerned that this policy would influence all 91 KFC restaurants around the country," he said.
"We would like other people who are affected by such policies to consult us."
Cele, a father of two, said he was "ecstatic" to have his job back and that the CCMA ruling would benefit his colleagues, who were also prevented from bringing their food to work.
"But I'm also concerned that I will now be intimidated," he said.
"I'm happy that, through my case, there will be changes to this oppressive policy. Shabane is a strong guy when it comes to fighting for workers' rights."
The union has also asked the CCMA to demand that KFC withdraw a final warning issued to a fellow employee of Cele, Nokuthula Buthelezi, who was also accused of bringing food to work. - The Mercury

The upper-division courses a student takes will vary dramatically, depending on the student's interests and the area of law in which the student wishes to practice upon graduation. As a general rule, however, students often find courses that develop strong writing, oral communication, and other practical skills to be useful in beginning their legal career.

McCrory wants more money for substance abuse treatment, Zika prevention
Posted April 11, 2016
Raleigh, N.C. — Gov. Pat McCrory says he will ask lawmakers to provide more money for substance abuse treatment, caring for those with Alzheimer's disease and combating the Zika virus as part of the state budget he will present to the General Assembly later this month.
McCrory used a news conference outside the Executive Mansion on Monday to present a rough outline of his Health and Human Services priorities, much as he did with education spending during a news conference in Jamestown last week. The governor said he would put a complete budget package in the hands of lawmakers before they return to session on April 25.
Most of McCrory's proposals augment existing programs rather than propose any sweeping new approach. For example, he said he wants lawmakers to allow pharmacies to dispense Naloxone, a drug used to combat overdoses of prescription opioids or heroin, to anyone who asks. First responders have already been using it in the field to combat overdoses.
"People are living and dying based on their access to this drug," McCrory said.
In total, the governor gave a rough outline of how he might spend $50 million, a small slice of the roughly $21 billion state spending plan he will eventually send to lawmakers.
More than half of that $50 million would come in $30 million for new spending on mental health programs, including money for emergency housing and expanding case management – regular face-to-face support – for those with mental health problems.
His budget will also expand the number of slots available to those with Alzheimer's disease to receive Medicaid-funded treatment and expand by $2.5 million the amount of state funding to support those with developmental disabilities who live outside of institutions. McCrory says he will also ask lawmakers to ensure children with autism who are enrolled in Medicaid will receive the same behavioral therapy that the state recently required private insurers to provide.
Julia Adams, a lobbyist with the ARC of North Carolina, an advocacy group for those with developmental disabilities, called the proposal "one of the strongest budgets we've sever seen from a governor for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities for the entire continuum of their lives."
The governor's budget is the first step in a very long process, the preponderance of which takes place at the General Assembly. Several key lawmakers were on hand Monday to lend their support to McCrory, but none spoke during the news conference.
Among the other highlights of the governor's presentation were:
- a proposal to spend $750,000 to combat the Zika virus' spread in the United States. The mosquito-borne virus is thought to be responsible for a rapid rise in Brazil in the number of cases of microcephaly – a condition in which babies have much smaller than usual heads.
- putting an additional $8.6 million into the state's child protection system
- spending $2 million to expand the number of pre-kindergarten slots available to poor families by 400

For starters, Rays vs. Yankees, with no Jennings again
UPDATE, 5:52: The Rays will tweak the rotation coming out of Monday's off-day, with LHP David Price moving ahead of RHP Jake Odorizzi and pitching Tuesday. That is designed to keep Price on his regular five-day schedule.
RHP Jeremy Hellickson had some light soreness during his rehab from arthroscopic right elbow surgery and is taking three days off, with a plan to play catch on Sunday. Hellickson had hoped to throw off the mound for the first time last Tuesday in Baltimore, so this would seem to push him back at least a week, and push his return to the rotation into June.
Maddon said he used Rodriguez in LF tonight because of his past success vs. Nova 5-for-14.
The Yankees lineup does not include Derek Jeter, who is getting a break after playing the first two nights on the turf.
Yankees lineup:
Ellsbury cf
Gardner lf
Beltran dh
McCann c
Soriano rf
Solarte 3b
Johnson 1b
Roberts 2b
Anna ss

UPDATE, 5:49: Jennings is dealing with groin soreness, manager Joe Maddon, and Tuesday is the soonest he could return to the lineup. So for tonight and Sunday, he likely will be limited to pinch-hitting - and then would be pinch-run for.
Maddon said Jennings was first bothered diving for a ball in Baltimore on Monday and played that game and Wednesday, but when it didn't feel better they were concerned with using him on the turf.
DEVELOPING: CF Desmond Jennings is out of the lineup again as the Rays prepare to host the Yankees after splitting the first two games of the series.
Here is the Rays lineup:

JERUSALEM (May. 30)
The British administration today retaliated for acts of terrorism, ascribed in official circles to Jews, in which five persons were killed and 23 wounded. The death total for two days was 10.
In reprisal for the bombing yesterday of the Arab-owned Rex Cinema with a toll of 18 injured, the military commander for the Jerusalem district closed indefinitely Jerusalem's four Jewish cinemas, imposed curfew on all Jewish cafes from 8 p.m., banned a scheduled performance performances of the Palestine Symphony Orchestra on June 1 and prohibited all future performances without special permission.
Two bombs exploded in the Rex Cinema and a third unexploded bomb was found in the balcony. The casualties included three British constables, three Palestinian constables, 10 Arab civilians and 2 Jews. The motion picture house had just reopened after being closed for a long time because of Arab terrorism and was showing the picture "Tarzan's Revenge." The proprietors had been warned by Arab terrorists not to reopen.
Although police cleared the streets immediately after the bombing, one Jews was killed and another fatally wounded by gunfire on a sidestreet off King George Avenue. The fatally wounded one was Arieh Polonsky, 28, a sergeant of the Criminal Investigation Department, who died today.
The other act of violence attributed to Jews was the shooting at the Arab village of Biyaradas in which five persons were killed and five wounded. British police, after searching nearby Jewish colonies, arrested four boys at the Kfar Saba settlement and the local council was ordered to billet a military detachment in punishment. An official communique earlier said the assailants spoke Hebrew and wore European clothing.
Another attack on Arabs occurred today when an Arab bus passing the Machine Yehuda quarter of Jerusalem was fired upon and one passenger was injured. Later, a Jew was injured when Arabs stoned a Jewish bus.
Three Arabs were killed and three others wounded when a detachment of British troops rounded up an armed band near Safed.
Twenty Jews were reported injured when a watchtower collapsed during the secret building of a new colony in the Haifa bay area. Police headquarters instructed forces stationed in Jewish colonies not to assist in establishment of new settlements by guarding and accompanying the settlers. Attempts to establish settlements must be reported to head quarters immediately, the order said.
Establishment of a "Jewish High Committee" with semi-dictatorial powers to conduct the campaign against Britain's plan was demanded by a delegation of Jerusalem Jews dissatisfied with the tactics of national institutions in regard to British policy which visited the Jewish Agency Executive. The demand was rejected by David Ben Gurion, chairman of the Executive, who stated that existing institutions were competent to conduct the campaign.
The Palestine Central Committee of the Group "B" General Zionists adopted a resolution demanding that the Jewish Agency establish an emergency committee to conduct the campaign against the British policy with L1,000,000 annually taken from national funds. The resolution warned that if the Agency did not assent, the Group "B" would withdraw its representatives from the activities of Jewish national institutions until the Zionist Congress.
As resistance to the British policy mounted, the Government press officer, on behalf of the High Commissioner, warned the local Jewish press against inciting to civil disobedience in editorials or articles and against inflammatory accounts of meetings on pain of punishment. Simultaneously, the Jewish National Council and the Agudath Israel submitted memorandums to the High Commissioner for transmittal to the Mandates Commission in opposition to the British policy.
Jewish members of Jerusalem's Municipal Council, except for the Agudath Israel Councillor, visited District Commissioner Sir Edward Keith-Roach and demanded that the present Arab mayor be replaced by a Jew. They warned that Jewish tax payments would cease if the demand was not met within two weeks.
A Jewish auxiliary policeman, Hans Joachim Fechtner, 18, who was arrested Saturday at Ataroth with a non service revolver, was sentenced to a month's imprisonment by a military court.

IV Saline Solution in Short Supply, Flu May Be to Blame — Physician's First Watch
IV Saline Solution in Short Supply, Flu May Be to Blame
By the Editors
The FDA is reporting a shortage of intravenous solutions, including saline used for volume repletion. The agency says there may be increased demand because of influenza-related hospitalizations. Previously, the agency reported a shortage of the oral suspension of the antiviral oseltamivir (Tamiflu).
In the CDC's most recent flu update, 40 states reported widespread influenza activity, up from 35 the prior week. About 60% of influenza-related hospitalizations were adults under age 65, a pattern consistent with the 2009 H1N1 flu pandemic. This is the first season that the H1N1 strain has been in wide circulation since 2009.

=100% Delicious!
"I can't imagine a more effortless way to cut your sugar intake in half. Just use Sugar 2.0, and it's done. Delicious in everything!"
Linda T – Copywriter / Editor
Monrovia, CA
"I used Sugar 2.0 to make meringue and it whipped up beautifully. I'm excited to try it with other pastries."
Colleen W. – Pastry Chef
Alhambra, CA
50% real cane sugar plus 50% soluble fiber equals 100% delicious! There's no artificial ingredients or high-intensity sweeteners which means NO bitterness or chemical aftertaste. Cutting sugar by 50% is good. Eating sugar with fiber is essential. Soluble fiber is a carb blocker which helps slows the absorption of sugar in the body.
Sugar 2.0 measures cup for cup as a replacement for all your sweetening, cooking, and baking needs. 2 grams soluble fiber / teaspoon (2 grams net. carbs.)
Love sugar again!

Nicholas G. Kounis
Nicholas G. Kounis, M.D., Ph.D., F.E.S.C., F.A.H.A., F.A.C.C., was born in Patras, Greece, and he serves as a Professor of cardiology at the Technological Educational Institute of Patras and as an Honorary Consulting Cardiologist at Karamandanion Children's Hospital, Patras, Greece. One of his contributions to medical science is the Kounis syndrome/allergic coronary spasm, the name given to anaphylactic CHD in patients with allergic reactions and with hypersensitivity reactions to drug eluting coronary stent components. He received his M.D. and Ph.D. degrees from Athens Medical School. He worked in various hospitals and institutions in Greece, starting in 1966, including the Department of cardiology of the University of Patras Medical School and culminating in an appointment at Patras Highest Institute of Education and Technology in 1988. He has also held, for 9 years, various hospital appointments in England and Northern Ireland as a House Officer, Senior House Officer, Registrar, and Senior Registrar. His contribution (Kounis syndrome) might have profound clinical and therapeutic implications. Kounis syndrome represents a magnificent natural paradigm and nature's own experiment in a final trigger pathway implicated in cases of coronary artery spasm and plaque rupture. Drugs and natural molecules which stabilize mast cell membrane and monoclonal antibodies that protect mast cell surface could emerge as novel therapeutic modalities capable to prevent acute coronary and cerebrovascular events.

2nd One Day Game at Leighton Buzzard Pt1
|The crossroads table.
Both 'Bulldog' Drummond and Colonel Faulkner were in the village to 'rescue' a Mr Johnson, everyone else was there to fly the flag and put on a show of force.
On the village table things started slowly as the BUF (Adrian) were conned by 'Bulldog' Drummond's (me) men, dressed as policemen to attack Colonel Faulkner (Mr PK). Grim's (Matt) Leighton Buzzard Workers Collective moved in to the village behind their tank.
On the other table Pinback (Richard) as the other Workers Collective commander fought it out with the BUF (Dik) until the Duke of Bedford's (Rob) forces arrived, this table then turned in to a 3 way fight around crossroads in the middle of the table.

Marc Anthony Upset After Split; Jennifer Lopez Says She's 'Happy'
Just one day after Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez announced their divorce, the Latin singer was unsociable and visibly upset by the break-up, according to PEOPLE.
Outside of a joke Anthony made during his Saturday concert in Bogotá, Columbia, he gave no hint of his marital problems. However, prior to the show Anthony remained distant and reclusive. "I saw him when he was passing through the stage, but I think because he split up the day before, he didn't allow anyone to talk to him or anyone to come to his dressing room," Spanish TV host Eva Rey told the celebrity magazine. "The people who worked with him said he was a little bit upset, so because of that, they tried to keep everybody from him."
In addition, Anthony stay in his hotel room the entire time he was in Columbia and never ventured out into the public like he usually does when he's there. "Everything he ordered was by room service. He was distant from people," said a source.
In stark contrast, Lopez was beaming during her wedding gig in the Ukraine last weekend. The 'On the Floor' songbird was paid a reported $1 million to perform at the lavish wedding of the son of an Uzbek oil tycoon. During her set, a cheerful J.Lo asked the crowd, "Are you happy? I am happy, because I am here with you today!" However, a source did tell US Magazine that Lopez was "devastated" by her divorce but "is looking forward to the future."
Despite, Anthony and Lopez's separation, the pair will continue to do business together — including hosting an upcoming reality-talent competition series, 'Q'Viva!: The Chosen.'

text: Study shows that inhaling a common manufacturing material could inadvertently injure the brain Model of the structure of carbon nanotubes, which are small fibers with multiple uses in manufacturing. Inhalation of carbon nanotubes could negatively impact the brain. By Leah Small University Public Affairs 804-828-8355 firstname.lastname@example.com Tuesday, March 7, 2017 Virginia Commonwealth University researchers in a multi-institutional collaboration are uncovering the degree to which inhalation of carbon nanotubes — a novel manufacturing material used to make anything from tennis rackets to spacecraft parts — could unintentionally cause neurological disease. Andrew Ottens, Ph.D. Carbon nanotubes are smaller than a human hair, but they are stronger than steel and are shown to effectively conduct electricity and heat. While these fibers have many practical applications, they should be handled with care by workers in the manufacturing sector, according to recent findings by Andrew Ottens, Ph.D., an associate professor of anatomy and neurobiology in the VCU School of Medicine; the Ottens Group research lab; investigators from the University of New Mexico; and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. With assistance from a $1.9 million four-year grant from NIOSH divided between VCU and UNM, researchers from both institutions have found that inhalation of carbon nanotubes causes inflammation in the brain. Previous research has shown that chronic neuroinflammation is linked to neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's, dementia and hemorrhagic strokes. "Inhalation-induced neuroinflammation is presently a hot area of study as a causal factor in the development of neurodegenerative disease, leaving open the possibility that working with these compounds and inhaling them may contribute to later neurological ailment," Ottens said. The study's most recent findings were published in a paper this winter by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Breaking the blood-brain barrier The neuroinflammatory effects of inhaled carbon nanotubes show close links between the respiratory and vascular systems, and the brain. Ottens and his partners concluded carbon nanotubes indirectly cause neuroinflammation by negatively impacting the lungs and blood. When carbon nanotubes enter the lung, the smallest fibers bury deep into the tissue. Researchers saw that similar to other irritants, the embedded fibers cause lung inflammation. What is novel about the study is that it expands knowledge of how lung inflammation caused by small particulates leads to neuroinflammation. "There are many studies out there that conclude that you can get lung inflammation from breathing in particulate. It could be from the smoke of burning wood or consuming cigarette smoke," Ottens said. "The mystery was how this affects other organ systems such as the brain. That's what wasn't clear." Ottens said other researchers proposed the particulate escapes from the inflamed lungs into the blood. It was thought this would damage blood vessels, leading to a break in the blood-brain barrier (a blood vessel lining that protects the brain from outside substances), allowing particulates into the brain. But this isn't completely the case. Pictured is the induced leakage of the blood-brain barrier and the consequential neuroinflammatory activation of the glial cells in brains exposed to varying amounts — from 0 to 40 micrograms (µg) — of nanotubes released into the lungs. Serum albumin (green) is shown having leaked from the blood vessels (purple) into the brain. At top, astroglia (red) react by forming a scar-like barrier around the leaking vessel, controlling further leakage. At bottom, microglia (red) — a hallmark of neuroinflammation — are also activated and recruited to the leaking vessels where they are cleaning up the leaked albumin. As the nanotube exposure is increased, more albumin leaks and a greater number of glial cells become active, extending further out from the vessel and impacting more brain tissue. Ottens and his partners demonstrated the breakdown of the blood-brain barrier in animal test cases, but it wasn't caused by the particulate directly invading the brain. The researchers found the lung inflammation triggered a biochemical change in the blood, which caused the blood-brain barrier to open. "The lung serves as a barrier, with our NIOSH colleagues showing that only 0.001 percent of inhaled nanotubes make it to the brain." Ottens said. "This raised the hypothesis that inflammation in the lung alternatively causes the release of bioactive factors into the blood, which then impact the blood-brain barrier." Normally, very few substances apart from sugar and oxygen permeate the blood-brain barrier. When the barrier broke during the test cases, substances inherent in blood leaked into the brain, such as albumin — the most common protein found in blood. With the barrier disrupted, the brain's immune responses kicked into overdrive. Glial cells, which make up the brain's primary defense against biological threats, gathered around the leaky blood vessels to neutralize the threat. While clean-up by immune cells is necessary, the associated neuroinflammation may become detrimental, Ottens said. Investigators have shown that such inflammation can prime the brain's immune cells to be more easily activated in the future, possibly leading to chronic neurodegeneration. It is this substantial inflammation that has researchers questioning the degree to which exposure to carbon nanotubes may lead to neurological disease. From science to policy To get a better idea about how carbon nanotubes impact workers, investigators are working to determine airborne levels of the particulate in manufacturing facilities. The team is also developing blood-based biomarkers that would gauge the biological response that an individual may have after inhaling the particulate matter. "We hope that this study can contribute to thresholds and guidelines for the safe use of carbon nanotubes in the industry, and provide diagnostics to assess worker's health, for example, in case of an accident," Ottens said. "As a neuroscientist whose particular interest is toxicity pathways, it is very exciting to see the potential impact in terms of the safe commercialization of these materials and understanding the risk factors associated with different levels of exposure."

Several news outlets, including AP, are reporting the Democratic National Committee has picked Charlotte, NC to be the host city of that party's 2012 convention.
Minneapolis was vying to be the host city.
Question of the Day: Is this good or bad for the Twin Cities?
Update: Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak isn't showing it if he's disappointed. Here's what he wrote on Twitter:
Congratulations Charlotte. You will be a great host for the 2012 Democratic convention
Here's an updated statement from Rybak:
"Congratulations to Charlotte on being selected to host this great event. Any assistance they need – we're here to help.
We're obviously disappointed, but having been a finalist for this selection proves once again that Minneapolis has what it takes to host any major event. Trust me, we're going to continue to compete for them. Every time Minneapolis vies for this caliber of high-profile event, we strengthen the infrastructure needed to be competitive in attracting conventions and new business to town that in turn create jobs that grow our economy."

Yeah Yeah Yeahs Announce New Album Title + Release Date, Unveil Extremely Weird Cover Art
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs have announced an April 16 release date for their forthcoming fourth album, which will be titled 'Mosquito' and feature an extremely weird album cover by filmmaker/animator Beomsik Shimbe Shim. (That's it to the left.)
Like the band's last album, 2009's 'It's Blitz,' 'Mosquito' was produced by Dave Sitek of TV on the Radio and Nick Launay. This time around, however, ex-LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy produced one track, which Dr. Octagon (aka Kool Keith) is featured on.
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs premiered two songs expected to appear on the album during a show on Friday night in Pomona, Calif. One of the new songs is titled 'Suck Young Blood,' while the other's title was not revealed. Watch video of both here.
"It's extremely lo-fi," singer Karen O told Pitchfork of the album. "We had a s—ty drum machine, a s—ty sampled keyboard, tons of delay on the vocals. There's a real tone, character, and style to it. And it's probably some of the most tongue-and-cheek stuff that we've done in a while."

Raw Food Pioneers Living A Life They Love
I first met Jackie in Costa Rica. As soon as I met this lively character I bombarded her with questions like no one had ever done before. I was so curious and excited by who she was and how she lived with her family in the jungles of Costa Rica!! And over time I got the chance to know her better and after several requests, she finally allowed me to share with others a window into her world. As a family they live in the heart of the jungle making it out to the neighboring towns and cities about once a month as a family. The rest of the teim, they bask in what is for them a blissful, natural life.
At the crack of sun, the family jumps to their feet, sharpens their machetés and gets on with the busy day of life on the fruit farm. By the time most of us are getting up to wipe the sleep out of our eyes, this lively bunch has already put in a good 3 hours of hard physical labor. When you talk about eating well, being fit, getting proper sun and rest… well, you realize what a struggle it is for most of us because we no longer live in a natural environment.
Jackie, her husband Doug and their children; Julianna (17), Olivia (15), Giovanni (13), and Aureliano (7) live about as close as you could get to a natural, pioneering lifestyle. We trust you'll appreciate her tips wisdom and time. (In her writing, she calls me their "adopted cub" because she really has done a lot to "take me in" and offer me a great deal of support and kindness throughout the time we have known each other.)
Tera (our adopted cub) has asked us to give an idea of our lifestyle and diet. We're very reluctant to do so, for most people think we are too extreme. We think of ourselves as Pioneers ~ Old Style ~ working and loving the land! Also, we've been creating our lifestyle for the last 26 years and don't honestly believe that if we jumped into it as is, we'd necessarily like it. So, why would anybody else? We can give some guidelines to live up to!
Our diet is constantly improving! We've been 80% Raw from Ann Wigmore, Viktorus Kulvinskus and The Biogenic Society since '81 when my husband and I met at a small Natural Health College. We've lived in Costa Rica on about 60 acres for over 15 years with plenty of wild greens, fruit trees and bamboo. We've been 100% Raw for two years and are now about 90%, which is more comfortable for us at this time.
We truly believe in self-sufficiency, have no workers other than our four children ages 16-10, who were all born at home with only family attendance. It would be reasonable to assume that we grow all our own food ~ would if we could! Unfortunately, our climate will not allow for most veggies. So, we have organic friends in the mountains who bring us a weekly delivery ~ we also provide this service to neighbor friends. A horse, goat, chickens, banties, bunnies, Russian hamsters, parakeets and a mouse complete our family right now. We take care of our farm all morning ~ have school all afternoon. To Some This Is Boring ~ To Us Bliss!
Life is a fantastically, wonderful journey of joy and lessons, which when learned should be seen for the blessings they are. Quick fixes don't usually work! Everybody is different and needs to find out what works for themselves.
Hopefully the list below can give some ideas of where to start!
If you'd like to know more information you are welcome to contact us.
Love, Jackie

Dust off those fuzzy dice and pull out the poodle skirt, says Wayne Briley, president of the Early Iron Car Club of Ukiah.
On Friday, July 12, the club is hosting an event commemorating National Collector Car Appreciation Day.
For the fourth consecutive year, a Senate Resolution has designated July 12, 2013 as Collector Car Appreciation Day. The resolution came at the request of the Specialty Equipment Market Association, a non-profit trade association composed of more than 6,800 member companies including manufacturers and distributors representing the specialty equipment automotive industry. All combined, the markets add up to over $34 billion in retail business annually.
The annual event is designed to celebrate and raise awareness of the vital role automotive restoration and collection plays in American society. The Early Iron Car Club of Ukiah is joining with hundreds of other car clubs and thousands of enthusiasts across the U.S., Australia and Canada, bringing out their classic cars and sharing the joy of what is arguably one of the most beloved hobbies in American society.
The Early Iron's "Community Cruise" will begin at the Redwood Empire Fairgrounds parking lot in Ukiah at 7:15 p.m., according to club secretary Dora Briley. "The Early Iron Club extends an invitation to all classic car owners to join the Cruise, whether you are a club member or not," says Briley. Members of other classic car clubs are also encouraged to attend.
The public is invited to gather along the cruise route and enjoy getting a peek into the legendary automotive past. The cruise will begin at 7:30 p.m., exiting the fairgrounds and heading north on State Street, turning into the Crossroad's Shopping Center parking lot. It will continue onto Ford Street and back to State Street, heading south to Wabash Avenue to Dora Street, then east on Washington Street and back to State to head north for a second loop.
"On the second loop, the cruise will head East on Perkins Street and end up at the Pear Tree Shopping Center for a mini evening car gathering, where the vehicles can be admired and drivers will have the opportunity to meet other classic car owners," says Dora Briley. Several clubs from Lake, Mendocino and Sonoma County have been invited to participate. "It's a time for our members and those who have classic vehicles and are not club members to socialize, join the club or consider becoming involved with the Fabulous Flashback Car Show," Briley continues. Ukiah's celebrated classic car show and fundraiser for automotive scholars is slated for the weekend of Sept. 20. It will be the 23rd year of the show, and up to 300 classic cars - from Model T's to muscle cars - are anticipated to participate.
"Next week's cruise is designed to be a fun, safe and enjoyable trip back in time for everyone involved," says Briley. The cruise has been approved by the Ukiah Police Department, the Redwood Empire Fairgrounds and the management groups of both shopping centers. All participants are required to obey all traffic laws during the cruise, says Briley, and no unsafe driving practices, including burnouts, will be tolerated.
The mystique of classic cars is no mystery to the 50 members of the Early Iron Car Club, according to Briley.
"I think there's a nostalgic looking back to an easier time. These days, all of us are zipping around everywhere. Like everyone else, my workload is insane, and back in the '50s, cars were more artistic, more fun," she notes.
Al Bazzani is the group's historian. "I think I'm the oldest guy in the club," he laughs. "We got together in 1981. It was about a dozen couples, all age groups. We could see the need to celebrate pre-1959 vehicles, but the town was small and we wanted to get enough people involved," Bazzani explains. "It started off with various events - everything from car shows, cruises and putting cars between the band reviews. It was just a way to have fun with cars. But I think we're going to change the name to the Ukiah Knife and Fork Club - we eat out so much," Bazzani laughs.
The club brings a sense of camaraderie to the membership. "We're people with the same interests. We've gone out of town to see the Hornet in San Francisco Bay, the Blackhawk Museum- so many places it's hard to recall them all," Bazzani continues.
The club now has a collective brain trust that is often overlooked by younger car enthusiasts. "We have a massive amount of knowledge from members on how to build hot rods," says Wayne Briley. The club has notes that date back over 30 years, from the time the club was incorporated. "There were younger kids in the club when we first started. Now we have more, and some who were members early on have come back," says Bazzani.
Bazzani is a member of the National Street Rod Association, which has 80,000-90,000 members. "We have a fellow pages' section in the Association, which means if you're broke down, anytime day or night, someone will come and help you, no problem. That's what these folks do," says Bazzani. The Association has a huge cross-section of members, he continues. It doesn't matter if you're a zillionaire or a thousandaire. It's fun to get to know each other, and the friendships open doors you wouldn't believe," Bazzani notes, explaining access to private auto collections is sometimes granted to Association members.
The classic car culture can border on healthy obsession, Bazzani continues. "My son built a 1,000-square-foot 1950s room. It has a full sized Buick made into a dining booth. The headlights and taillights are hooked up and they actually light up," he smiles.
For Bazzani, his love of automobiles has provided relaxation and solace. "That was my escape - I went out to the garage and everything went away," he concludes.
"We welcome everyone to join us on the cruise - people who have done all the work on their cars themselves or people who have done it professionally. We look forward to seeing everyone come out and enjoy each other's cars and company," Briley concludes.

A computer security breach has compromised private information on thousands of current and former California Department of Public Health employees, officials announced Friday.
A department employee copied to a private hard drive the personal and workers' compensation information about 9,000 former and current employees and took that information from state offices, department director Dr. Ron Chapman said.
The breach was discovered April 5 and the employee has been put on administrative leave while an investigation continues. So far, the probe has not uncovered any indication the information was misused or given to others, according to a news release.
"We regret that the personal information of our employees was compromised," Chapman said. "We take the breach of any secure documents very seriously and are committed to taking steps to minimize any impact of this action and further strengthen our security policy."
The breach of information impacts most current employees in the state public health department and in the California Department of Health Care Services, plus nearly 3,000 employees of the former Department of Health Services.
The information contained names and addresses along with Social Security numbers, ethnicity, birth dates, next of kin and addresses of next of kin, and workers' compensation documents.
The state Department of Public Health has started implementing more safeguards to protect employee information and is reviewing security policies for possible improvement to prevent a future breach, the release said. those affected by the breach will be offered credit monitoring services.
For information and to activate the credit monitoring service, call (877) 421-9634 or click here for the public health department website.

Time Schedule:
Mary R O'Neil
Seattle Campus
Witchcraft and magical beliefs in Europe considered as a problem in intellectual, social, and legal history. Medieval background, systematization of witchcraft theory in fifteenth century; comparison of learned and popular beliefs; mechanisms of witch trials and inquisitorial procedure; the Faust legend; growth of skepticism and decline of witchcraft in seventeenth century.
Class description
Medieval and early modern European society believed strongly in the existence of witches; action against these imagined enemies of the human race culminated in the great witch panic of the 16th and 17th centuries. Modern historians, however, agree that there was no organized society of witches, and this course starts from that premise. Witch beliefs will be approached first from an anthropological perspective, as a standard explanation for misfortune in peasant societies and as part of European folkloric tradition, linked to other imagined beings (fairies, elves, werewolves, etc.). Secondly, beliefs about witches will be analyzed historically from the early medieval period to about 1700, with an emphasis on the interaction between popular and learned clerical concepts of witchcraft, magic and sorcery. Special attention will be given to the issue of why (unlike other traditional societies studied by anthropologists) European witches were overwhelmingly women. Due to local variations in law, judicial processes and patterns of persecution, witch trials from the 15th to the 17th centuries will be studied on a country by country basis, including Switzerland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, England, and the American colonies (Salem). By the end of the course, students will have a good understanding of how and why the European "witch panic" occurred, as well as the decline of witch beliefs in the 17th-18th centuries.
Student learning goals
General method of instruction
Lecture plus weekly section meetings to discuss documents related to the witch trials.
Recommended preparation
There are no prerequisites, but some background in European history would be useful. Students must be prepared to learn a lot about medieval and early modern history in order to have a framework for understanding the witch trials.
Class assignments and grading
Requirements: midterm, final, two papers (one 2-3 pages, one 5-7 pages), plus a few short written response to assigned readings.
Assigned reading: Norman Cohn, Europe's Inner Demons (Revised edition, 2001) Kors & Peters, Witchcraft in Europe 1100-1700: Documentary History (2cd ed) Brian Levack, The Witch Hunt in Early Modern Europe 2001, 2cd edition Christopher Marlowe, Doctor Faustus Carlo Ginzburg, Night Battles: Witchcraft, Agrarian Cults in 16-17th C Boyer & Nissenbaum, Salem Possessed: The Social Origins of Witchcraft Plus xerox packet with selected articles.
Section participation, including short written assignments: 15% First short paper: 15% Midterm: 20% Second longer paper 25% Final exam: 25%

Fuel System Problems????
Ok, i have an 89 YJ with a 258 6cyl 4.2l. It has a mechanical fuel pump located on the engine block. It started with my Jeep running fine then the Jeep shutterd and stahled and would not start. My dad and I took the fuel hose off and we tried turning the Jeep over and little drops of gas came dribbling out the hose. In a normal Jeep it would squirt out in a stream. The problem is, i thought it was fuel pump. I replaced the $20 dollar pump and a $4 dollar fuel filter at the same time. I thought our worries were over. It didn't start so i decided to fill the floatbowls on the carburator and it fired up and worked great. I drove it for 15 minutes, parked it, went inside for about an hour, left the house again and it fired up i pulled out of the driveway and it died. Well, there it stands, i nor my dad is a jeep master so we think it is somewhere along the fuel lines, we want to drop the gas tank and blow out all the hoses, will this work, is it the cam not hitting the pump, what is it? PLEASE HELP, i need this Jeep to run, i would appreciate it a lot, thank you. :confused: :confused: :mad:
You touched on the two possible problems. Either the eccentric loosened off the dowel or the lines/pickup are clogged. try removing the inlet of the pump and place it in a fuel container. then check the flow through the outlet.
Hey servo the pump works, that is all good, i can get it to run, i think it might be somewhere inside the fuel system near the tank, is there any screens along the way that could possibly be clogged. And servo what did you mean about the eccentric :confused:
Hey BigJeep, Look for a bad return line that goes to the tank.It could be crimped or clogged. It would cause a vacuum in the fuel delivery system that the pump can't overcome. Good Luck
You are absolutely correct, i appreciate it and if it happens again i might try the charcoal vaccum canister and see if thats crimped, i appreciate it my line was crimped and i bought a new one, thanks. ;)

O'Neill focussed on festive points
Martin O'Neill believes Sunderland are in a battle to save their Premier League status - along with most of the rest of the Premier League.
The Black Cats are anchored in the bottom half of the table following a poor start to the season, winning just three games in 17, but O'Neill insists his side are not alone in the scrap for survival.
"You look at the league table at the moment and teams in the bottom half have no breathing space," he told the Sunderland Echo. "Neither the teams above us nor the teams below us. That's the reality of the Premier League these days.
"There's only about half-a-dozen sides who can start any one season feeling there's going to be absolutely no danger of the drop. I'm talking about your Man Uniteds and Man Citys, Arsenals and Chelseas.
"They and a few others know that they don't realistically have to worry about the possibility of relegation. But for the rest of us, the bulk of the Premier League, and a few of the teams currently in the top half of the table, it's not something we can rely on. It's all about getting points on the board, about getting to that safety mark where you absolutely know you're not going down.
"Until you get to that point, you can't talk about breathing sighs of relief when you get a good result or two. We got a good result against Reading the other night, but we need more and as soon as possible because we're like many other clubs in this division who can take nothing for granted. The matches are exceptionally tough for us."
O'Neill's men travel to fellow strugglers Southampton on Saturday, before facing Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur at the Stadium of Light in late December and the former Aston Villa manager is eager to put points on the board as soon as possible in order to avoid being dragged back towards the relegation zone.
"They are severe tests and if we are anywhere there or thereabouts after they've been played, then we'll be happy because it will be easy to get dragged back into the bottom three for teams around the bottom over this period," he said.
"But I think it is very important that we really try to take things from a difficult set of games. We have to see them as opportunities rather than something to be feared, games where we might pick up an unexpected point or two that will be a real help to us.
"By the turn of the year, we'll have played Man City twice, we'll have played Liverpool twice and also come through difficult away trips to Arsenal, Everton and Manchester United. There'll be fixtures coming up where we might have more of a chance to pick up points, but I want us to forget about them for the moment.
"All we can think about is these few games ahead of us over the Christmas and New Year period. We have to look to go out and compete in every single one of them and look to put points on the board."

Doves are heading west, and hunters have taken notice
We're in the dove season countdown. Opening day is Sept. 1 for most of Texas. One reader owns property west of Fort Worth and wonders why there's been a westward movement of the mourning dove migration route.
He said there were a lot of doves in his area when he bought the place in 2001. By 2006, most of the birds had disappeared, though the hunting remains good about 25 miles to the west.
Corey Mason, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's dove program leader, said migration route analysis indicates food production is the compelling factor for doves.
"We have looked at lots of variables related to dove densities," Mason said. "Grain production is at the top of the list. If a county or a general area used to be considered a top dove producer and now it's not, it can likely be attributed to changes in agricultural practices."
Hamilton County, for instance, was once known as the Dove Hunting Capital of Texas. I'm sure there's still good dove hunting in Hamilton County, but I'm equally sure there are several Texas counties with more birds and more hunters. Birds will find the food sources, and the hunters will find the birds.
The interesting paradox here is that urban counties like Dallas, Tarrant, McLennan (Waco), Travis and Bexar now have excellent dove hunting in proximity to the cities. That's due to rapidly growing numbers of urban and suburban white-winged doves and, to a lesser degree, mourning doves.
Farming is not a big deal in the urban counties, but there's still enough sunflowers, milo, wheat, etc., to attract doves. Suburban dove hunting has become so lucrative that some landowners now plant crops strictly to attract doves.
And it's not just the big city suburbs that support dove hunting. Coleman hunting outfitter Dusty Greaves said his clients shot more whitewings from a single field near San Angelo last season than he's ever taken from one field, and the birds just kept coming.
Greaves said the pastures in his area are loaded with dove weed (croton), and the ground around the weeds is bare, making it easy for mourning doves to find the seeds. He expects those conditions will make it difficult to locate a concentration of mourning doves.
At Haskell, hunting outfitter Roy Wilson said the prospects look about average for opening weekend. "There aren't as many fields as normal," said Wilson. "If you've got a field with sunflowers, wheat or milo, you'll probably have plenty of birds."
Mason said he's still hearing good reports from biologists and hunting outfitters, most of them noting good numbers of mourning doves and whitewings. Texas produces about 40 million mourning doves in an average year. About 35 million more migrate through the state en route to Mexico and Central America.
Mason said he doesn't think recent rain and cooler weather will trigger an early migration of native birds.
"It is possible that cooler weather in conjunction with rain could cause doves to move around a bit but it's unlikely they will completely leave an area," he said. "Intense rain often scatters birds, especially in a dry year."
Hunting outfitter Mike Hopkins has checked his fields near Denton, Krum, Ranger, Eastland and Albany and said the rain hasn't hurt them.
