Stony Point Group, a private equity and management firm focusing on middle-market companies in the aerospace, defense and industrial sectors, has acquired the assets of Broadwing Air Repair (BAR). The Melbourne, Ark.-based FAA Part 145 repair station provides composite and sheet metal repair and is known for its expertise in flight control surface and door repair. Founded in 2007 by former managers of Boeing's Melbourne repair station, Broadwing services components for more than 25 different airframes, including those manufactured by Airbus, Embraer, Bombardier, McDonnell Douglas and Boeing. "This acquisition aligns with Stony Point's strategy of adding high-quality companies that complement our existing portfolio of aviation businesses," said David Nolletti, Stony Point Group's vice president of business development. "Broadwing Air Repair's capabilities and expertise in commercial aviation can clearly be extended to other markets, including military and business aviation, which is consistent with our objectives for organic growth." In addition to BAR, Stony Point's portfolio includes Graco Supply and Tect Power and Tect Aerospace. The financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

RIAA: Bigger Fish to Fry
The announcement was included in a response to an inquiry begun by Senator Norm Coleman (R-MN), chairman of the Senate Governmental Affairs' Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. Describing the RIAA's mass litigation as "excessive" earlier in August, Coleman announced plans to hold hearings on the trade association's antipiracy campaign. Coleman had expressed concern that the RIAA's net would catch grandmothers and schoolkids who had no idea that downloading was illegal. In a letter to Coleman, RIAA president and general counsel Cary Sherman gave assurance that his organization was "gathering evidence and preparing lawsuits only against individual computer users who are illegally distributing a substantial amount of copyrighted music."
The RIAA has never clearly distinguished big fish from small, but a Florida man recently convicted of piracy certainly made the cut. On August 21, Mark Shumaker of Orlando, FL was convicted of music piracy in a US district court in Alexandria, VA. The 21-year-old Shumaker was the mastermind behind a group of music pirates called the "Apocalypse Production Crew" that acquired promotional CDs from music reviewers and disc jockeys and shared them over the Internet, prosecutors asserted. Shumaker will be sentenced on November 7, and could be facing up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. "Prosecution and jail time are real possibilities," commented Cary Sherman.
Lawsuits and the threats of lawsuits are having the desired effect, according to a study released August 21 by market research firm NPD Group. Based on data collected continuously from more than 40,000 NPD online panelists, the amount of music file sharing began to drop in May 2003, shortly after the RIAA began threatening legal action against individual file-sharers. NPD estimates that "music files acquired, which includes songs either swapped illegally, obtained through paid downloading sites or ripped from CDs, dropped to 655 million files in June from a high of 852 million files in April," according to an August 22 report from Reuters.
The drop in file-sharing activity "appears to be more than just a natural seasonal decline," said NPD vice president Russ Crupnick. The number of households acquiring music files reached a high of 14.5 million in April 2003, fell to 12.7 million in May, and to 10.4 million in June, according to NPD estimates.
Even so, file sharing is still the "most popular method of digital music acquisition," Crupnick stated. Somewhat paradoxically, among those who continue to download, the number of music files acquired per person increased from 59 in April to 63 in June. Nielsen NetRatings also reported a decline in the overall popularity of file sharing in July, likewise attributed to legal threats by the RIAA.

One St. Paul cop's view of East Side violence, response
Here's PiPress columnist Ruben Rosario on violence on St. Paul's East Side: "The cop [an acquaintance of his] also added that colleagues working the East Side feel their hands are tied by police leadership they suspect is more concerned about community backlash if they aggressively enforce curfew and other quality-of-life laws. 'Look, recreation centers are fine and they may help, but these (gang members) don't go to rec centers,' said the officer. 'It's not all law enforcement, but in this case right now, the hammer needs to come down on these people.' He also noted a lack of outrage, particularly from the African-American community, over the recent beating, but more so the gang-related slaying of a 17-year-old youth by another last month in the same area. Both were black. The suspects in the Widstrand beating also belong to a predominantly black gang."
Doom and gloom in the housing industry is getting harder to find … Jim Buchta of the Strib says: "[F]oreclosure sales in the state have fallen to the lowest level since the beginning of the housing crisis. Statewide there were 6,795 foreclosure sales during the first half of the year, a 29 percent annual decline and the least since 2006, according to the Minnesota Homeownership Center. 'Modest improvements in Minnesota's economy and increasing home prices, combined with improvements in how banks and lenders deal with struggling homeowners, are positively impacting the number of homes lost to foreclosure,' said Ed Nelson, communications manager for the Minnesota Homeownership Center."
Related … . John Welbes of the PiPress says: "The state has gained 71,488 jobs in the past year, a growth rate of 2.6 percent, compared with the U.S. rate of 1.7 percent. 'On an annual basis, the Minnesota labor market is recovering at a pace we haven't seen since the expansion of the 1990s,' said Katie Clark Sieben, commissioner of the state's Department of Employment and Economic Development. With July's net gain in jobs, the state is also close to its prerecession employment level and now needs only 5,500 more jobs to regain all the jobs lost in the recession, which started in 2007."
As it rolls on, this one should produce some spikes in the Hyperbole-Meter … Brett Neely of MPR reports: "Minnesota's 6th Congressional District is a GOP stronghold. There's no doubt the Republican who makes it onto the Election Day ballot next year will be favored to win. That's why four are already in the race. But Rhonda Sivarajah, Phil Krinkie, Tom Emmer and John Pederson don't differ much on policy. They're all sticking with the national GOP's message about what ails Washington. So the race to replace retiring Rep. Michele Bachmann is likely to be more about style, name recognition and money. … Krinkie, Pederson and Sivarajah are focusing on fundraising, meeting potential delegates and building teams of staff and volunteers. But already, they're hinting at likely lines of attack against Emmer." Who repealed the 11th commandment?
Skepticism is always healthy … Tim Nelson at MPR writes: "An estimate in March from the city of St. Paul put the construction cost for the [Saints Lowertown] stadium alone at $28 million. A few months later, the construction cost was revised downward to $22.4 million — just as the state was evaluating the project for a grant from the state's Department of Employment and Economic Development. That's a drop of $5.56 million, or just about exactly how much the price of the project rose, after the city got $25 million in state funding for the project last September. So, did the city lowball the price tag to win state aid, then restore the true cost once it had state money in hand?"
Also at MPR, Dave Peters has a piece on federal government action that could seriously affect rural hospitals: "In the running struggle to maintain good health care services in rural America, facilities called critical access hospitals are among the key players. If you know anything about them, you might have felt the shudder that ran through them Thursday. … A federal agency Thursday recommended that two-thirds of hospitals with the critical access designation should be re-assessed and perhaps dropped from getting the extra money. The move could save hundreds of millions of federal dollars every year. But it's a chilling thought for a lot of people because they fear hospitals would close as a result. And Minnesota seems particularly vulnerable."
We're No. 1! Your must-read site for … nerd news, NerdWallet says: "Best Cities for Recreational Activities
1. Minneapolis, Minnesota
Minneapolis offers a bounty of recreational opportunities. You can lace up your ice skates and hit the ice at The Depot, an indoor skating rink inside a restored railroad depot. Avid skateboarders can check out the six skate parks in Minneapolis, while golfers can tee up on one of seven courses. There are even disc golf courses for Frisbee fans! Hiking, biking and skiing trails can be found at Fort Snelling State Park, an historic military site. Whether you're looking to start a fall sports league or go camping for the weekend, Minneapolis has the perfect accommodations. The University of Minnesota runs youth programs for area children, as well." … And no reference to lutefisk …
Oh wait … right there at No. 3:
"3. Saint Paul, Minnesota …
Partnered with Minneapolis as half of the Twin Cities, Saint Paul is another great city for recreation in Minnesota. The city has 173 parks, four golf courses and four swimming facilities. Not to mention, dozens of basketball courts, tennis courts, playing fields, fishing sites and city gardens. There are also ice rinks, horseshoe courts and volleyball courts for your use. Saint Paul provides adaptive recreational programs for those with disabilities and mobile recreational options for those who don't normally have access to facilities. If you're trying to improve your fitness, you can joint the Saint Paul Getting Fit program, a special 'Active Living' fitness membership that offers access to participating recreation center fitness rooms and indoor walking tracks."
And maybe just a step up from NerdWallet … Joseph Lindberg of the PiPress reports: "The St. Paul Farmer's Market can now count itself amongst some of the country's most prominent. Zagat, the renowned national survey company, recently named the St. Paul market one of eight 'must visit' in the U.S., setting it beside the likes of Pike's Place Market in Seattle, Wash. and Haymarket in Boston, Mass. The St. Paul market stands out in part because of its strict, locally-grown roots — 'So you can truly get to know the men and women who sow, harvest, raise and butcher the food on your table,' the survey said."

Jobs, jobs, jobs
In June the State gained 400 jobs and the unemployment rate went down. (Although the number was revised to a 1000 job loss) In July, the State gains over 4000 jobs and the unemployment rate stays the same. The number of people participating in the workforce is now at it's lowest level in ages which might account for the unemployment rate oddities. Fortunately most of the last month's increase was in public jobs.

What it is
2010 Fisker Karma Preview – 2008 Detroit Auto Show: Just this morning we attended a press conference held by a well-known Italian luxury car company, one that sells fewer than 10,000 cars annually and employs executives who tout the brand's exclusivity. Maybe they haven't heard about Fisker Automotive, and in particular, the 2010 Fisker Karma plug-in hybrid. Despite a projected annual production run of approximately 15,000 units, the Karma comes much closer to the true definition of exclusive thanks the plug-in's first-to-market status, relatively affordable $80,000 base price, lithium ion battery technology, full-electric range of 50 miles, and a gas/electric fuel economy rating of 100 mpg. That kind of exclusivity will be available from Fisker in late 2009.
Why it's Important
This debut marks the introduction of Fisker Automotive, Inc., a company that plans to offer a fleet of environmentally-friendly premium cars, starting with the Karma and following with coupe and wagon variants, not to mention a possible a small-car version in the years to come. All examples will feature exclusive Quantum Drive (Q-Drive) plug-in hybrid technology, which positions the battery pack between the axles to enhance driving dynamics and safety. A union of two companies, Fisker Coachbuild, LLC and Quantum Technologies, Fisker Automotive, Inc. arrives with a message designed to attract high-end enthusiasts – that it wants people to "drive beautiful fast cars that make environmental sense."
Under the Hood
Behind the rear-drive Karma's taut skin is a lightweight chassis that places the battery pack in the vehicle's center to enhance driving dynamics and safety. Fisker says its plug-in hybrid sports sedan will hit 60 mph in 5.8 seconds and travel up to 50 miles on electric power alone; with a supplemental four-cylinder gasoline engine that powers a large generator, its range will extend to 620 miles while returning 100 mpg. When plugged into a 110-volt household outlet, the Karma fully recharges in eight hours, using a 220-volt outlet will get the job done in three hours, and a solar roof panel aids with trickle charging while the Karma is parked.
What it Looks Like
Like the Mercedes-Benz CLS and Jaguar XF, the four-passenger 2010 Fisker Karma plug-in hybrid exists as a low-slung, four-door coupe. The front end is long and sleek, the wide rear features a short overhang, and the flanks are decorated with substantial fender flares and arched wheel wells. The smooth hood is accented laterally by the curves of the raised fenders, with flowing lines gracefully curving along the sides. HID headlights with LED markers sit high atop the fascia, which includes an Aston Martin-like chrome grille dissected by a body-color centerpiece.
What Fisker Says
According to Quantum Technologies' CEO, Alan Niedzwiecki, "Our goal here is to deliver the advancement of that Quantum Technologies has made in the area of plug-in hybrid technology. By combining our efforts with the renowned design talent of Henrik Fisker, we can produce cars that make a difference to the environment – without sacrificing the luxury that accompanies the finest vehicles."
What We Think
Major automakers have talked about it for years, but Fisker Automotive is the first manufacturer to officially announce the production of a plug-in hybrid vehicle. That's a monumental feat, though one that can only be enjoyed by the wealthy until the costs of production and lithium-ion battery technology decrease. But at $80,000 to start, buyers deserve something as exclusive and simply gorgeous as the Fisker Karma. Still, announcing production and actually producing are two different things, so we'll keep one foot off the bandwagon until models start showing up in buyers' garages.

NEW YORK (Jun. 22)
Gail Pressberg has announced that she is stepping down as president of Americans for Peace Now, to return to more direct involvement in political activism on behalf of the organization.
Such work was at the center of Pressberg's APN activities before she assumed the presidency in February, when former President Jonathan Jacoby left to work on behalf of Israel's Labor Party.
During the debate in March over APN's bid to join the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, Pressberg became a lightning rod for the opposition.
Prior to working at APN, Pressberg had worked for the American Friends Service Committee and the Foundation for Middle East Peace, groups seen by many as pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel.
In a resignation letter dated May 7, Pressberg said her desire for reassignment predated the group's election to the Conference of Presidents.
But once the campaign against APN began focusing on her past activities, she wrote, "I felt that discussion of my leaving the presidency would be misconstrued as bowing to outside pressure."
Sources familiar with the deliberations of APN confirm that Pressberg's resignation was not a result of the controversy surrounding her position.
APN is currently seeking a successor to Pressberg. Her resignation will be effective as soon as one is found.
And at least one staunch opponent of APN does not see the move as significant.
"The problem is not Gail Pressberg. The problem is the positions Peace Now is taking," said Morton Klein, president of the Philadelphia chapter of the Zionist Organization of America and leader of the effort to prevent APN's admission to the Conference of Presidents.
At the conference, Executive Vice Chairman Malcolm Hoenlein said the move would have no impact on APN's functioning within the umbrella group, since Pressberg had not personally attended its meetings.
Pressberg told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency her new APN post, as yet unnamed, will enable her to spend more time writing and speaking.
"I'm not going to have a lower profile at all," she said.

REHOVOT (Aug. 18)
African scientists attending the International Conference on the Role of Science in the New States, currently under way here at the Weizmann Institute, were advised by one of Israel's top scientists today to build solar energy plants for the generation of electric power. He elicited deep interest with the details of Israeli experience in that new source for power.
The speaker was Dr. Henry Zwi Tabor, director of the National Physical Laboratory of Israel. He told the scientists and statesmen from 29 underdeveloped Asian and African countries at the parley that, because of the abundance of sunshine in their areas, the use of solar energy has immediate practical significance for their areas.
Dr. Tabor described a solar energy power station, built on a principle developed here, which can produce electric power at a low cost. The cost of the installation, he said, would be between $1,000,000 and $1,200,000. All that is needed for the process, Dr. Tabor said, is ample sunshine, a flat area and cheap salts. The scientist reported that Israel's experimental solar energy station, at S'dom, is "very successful," and can produce 6,000 kilowatts.
Prior to Dr. Tabor's address, the parley was told by European experts on atomic energy that the use of nuclear sources of energy for generation of power is a process that is "not yet ripe" for their needs. Dr. J.A. Jukes, economic adviser to the British Atomic Energy Agency, advised the scientists from underdeveloped lands to conduct research on the use of atomic energy for generation of power, but to make use of other sources of energy in the meanwhile.

The podium hopes of the Frenchman Romain Bardet and the American Tejay van Garderen suffered a major blow yesterday when they conceded considerable ground in the 16th stage after which Michael Rogers was left celebrating the first Tour stage win of his career.
The Australian gave his Tinkoff-Saxo team their second stage win this year by powering away in the 237.5-kilometre mountain trek from Carcassonne.
He was thrilled to have claimed his maiden victory on a day when he simply refused to be beaten. "I had the feeling that my stage truly began at the foot of the final climb and at the top, only three guys were left in the group," he said. "On the descent, Europcar's [Cyril] Gautier bridged the gap, but I just rode as fast as I possibly could on the lower slopes, created the gap and kept the pace up to the finish line.
Loading article content
"No-one was going to beat me today. Of course, I'm immensely happy and it's a good feeling to have a Tour de France stage win on my resume."
Vincenzo Nibali, of Italy, retained the overall leader's yellow jersey ahead of Spain's Alejandro Valverde, while France's Thibaut Pinot, who was the strongest in the intimidating ascent to the Port de Bales, moved up to third place at the expense of his compatriot Bardet.
Bardet, the AG2R-La Mondiale rider who had promised to blow the race open in the Pyrenees, was unable to sustain the pace in the climb, although team-mate Jean-Christophe Peraud could not be shaken off quite so easily.
"I had good legs, I had to attack," said Pinot, whose acceleration in the Port de Bales put all his rivals in the red. The FDJ.fr rider also holds the white jersey for the best rider under the age of 25.
Nibali leads Valverde by 4min 37sec and Pinot by 5:06 prior to two tough stages in the Pyrenees, with Peraud in fourth and 6:08 off the pace. Bardet is 32 seconds further behind.
"This is tough to take in when you were looking to attack," said the Frenchman. "I will be looking to attack tomorrow if I have the legs."
Van Garderen, the BMC rider, is 9:25 behind Nibali. "Movistar made such an insane tempo. I did not have the legs; I felt a bit empty. I'm hoping I can bounce back tomorrow," said the American.
Rui Costa, the world champion from Portugal, did not start the stage as he withdrew due to pneumonia. "He was forced to withdraw after an X-ray examination," read a Lampre team statement.
A 21-man breakaway took shape after about 60km and created a 12:30 gap that began to shrink when they hit the first slopes of the ascent to the Port de Bales, a 11.7km climb.
Astana and Movistar set the tempo of the peloton in the climb, while Rogers' acceleration in the break reduced the group to seven men. Thomas Voeckler's attack skimmed it down to four before his Europcar team-mate Gauthier burst away, although he dropped off quickly.
Rogers, the Colombian Jose Serpa and Voeckler were on their own three kilometres from the summit. That is where Pinot's team-mate Arnold Jeannesson upped the pace in front of the yellow jersey group as Bardet dropped out. Van Garderen was long gone after Valverde's Movistar team set a devilish pace at the front. Pinot finished it off in the last kilometre by dropping Valverde, Peraud and even Nibali.
However, they all came back in the descent and worked together with several team-mates and finished together. The 17th stage today is a brutal, 124.5km effort featuring four demanding climbs with a summit finish at Plat d'Adet.

Valiante, Bourdais, DiGuida prep for Indy, balance of Grand-Am Series season
JUPITER, Fla. (July 19, 2013) - The 8Star Motorsports Rolex GRAND-AM Series Daytona Prototype teams wrapped up two days of testing today at Palm Beach International Raceway in Jupiter, Fla., in preparation for the July 26 Brickyard Grand Prix at Indianapolis (Ind.) Motor Speedway and the balance of the 2013 season.
Drivers Michael Valiante and Emilio DiGuida were joined by Sebastien Bourdais, whom 8Star announced July 17 as the co-driver with DiGuida in the No. 4 Corvette DP for the balance of the 2013 season.
The Brickyard Grand Prix will be the second race for 8Star's No. 4 team after debuting June 29 in the six-hour endurance race at Watkins Glen (N.Y.) International. DiGuida and Luis Diaz drove to an 11th-place finish.
"The DP car feels like a DP but every car is a little different so I'm just trying to get a feel for what the Corvette DP requires," said Bourdais. "Overall, we made improvements so I'm happy. We found some mechanical grip which should translate pretty well to Indy because it's a low-grip track so I'm pretty happy. The team is still in the discovery of the car so we're still trying to investigate what's best, what works and what doesn't.
8Star race engineer Yves Touron, who has a long history at the Brickyard in the IndyCar Series, was pleased with the progress made in further developing the two-car program.
"We did a lot of things over the past two days so it was a pretty good test," said Touron. "All the drivers were able to put in a lot of laps so we learned a lot. Now it's just a matter of picking what we feel will work best for Indy. Going back to Indianapolis Motor Speedway with the 8Star DP team will be different because it will be my first time on the road course. It will be strange not running the oval but I'm really looking forward to it so we'll just see what happens.

Personal Injury Law
Personal Injury Law Question? Ask Personal Injury Lawyers.
ok sure
what about satisfaction and accord
but would they have to show that the amount there requesting is over the amount of with there insurance paid is that correct, so could and affirmative defense be unjust enrichment or a counter claim or if they have been compensated for damages would that compensation create an collateral estoppal
is this done if you counter claim or you can file a counter complaint , would it be sought by admissions, interrogatories etc.
that would fall under just a defense of 1. "payment" that they have already been compensated for the damages which bars them from relief 2. unjust enrichment they have entered into this with unclean hands seeking unjust enrichment by double dipping
see you a good teacher!
well i do cause i check everything lol, anyway good teachers are like good students i believe. you cant be a good leader if you were not a good follower per se. not absolute but something like that by the way can you have an affirmative defense and counter claim?
or if i don't file them together would it just be a single complaint and not a counter claim and does one take away from the other like if i file a complaint on the same case would it be different from a counter claim?

Often artists themselves can't tell you why they gather around a theme at a certain moment in time.
This is one of those moments. And for whatever reason - the economic crisis, global tensions over immigration, a desire to ponder nationhood - America's history of slavery and racism is getting a thorough going over.
Last year two very different Oscar-nominated films dealt with slavery - Steven Spielberg's worthy Lincoln and Quentin Tarantino's comic-book Django Unchained; later in the year The Butler examined America's civil rights history. Ironically, all three are now outshone by a film by a British director, albeit one with a very clear and personal reason for engaging with the subject, namely his own family's experience of slavery.
Loading article content
Steve McQueen's 12 Years A Slave is an exceptional, overwhelming film, which depicts with integrity and artistry what one character aptly describes as the "fearful ill" that beset America. It will leave you shaken, saddened, but ultimately moved to the good.
A pre-Civil war story, it is based on the memoir of a free man from upstate New York who in 1841 was kidnapped and sold into slavery in the South. In a prelude that becomes more poignant as the story unfolds, we see Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor) enjoying his independence. An accomplished musician, he has a home, a family and a place in society. But then this big-hearted man is duped, drugged, chained and shipped to Louisiana for a very different life.
Over the next 12 years Solomon will have a handful of owners, ranging from the inherently decent Ford (Benedict Cumberbatch), who struggles with his role as a slave owner, to the sadistic Edwin Epps (Michael Fassbender), who has no such misgivings, quoting scripture to justify the savage beating of his slaves.
If physical and mental abuse and virtual imprisonment are not bad enough, the proud and intelligent Northup has to forsake his identity - to accept the new name forced upon him, to suppress his education - in order to survive. He suffers all the more because of what he has lost. And as he angrily tells a fellow slave: "I don't wanna survive, I wanna live."
Compared to McQueen's previous films, Hunger and Shame, the narrative style is straightforward, even conventional, the director understanding that this story needs no embellishment, no interpretation, that the raw telling of it will cut us to the quick. Scenes in which Northup and other slaves are beaten make anger rise in your throat; when he is left hanging from a tree, only his toes saving him from death, McQueen holds the moment so long that it is almost unbearable. The fate of a female slave (Lupita Nyong'o), who has the misfortune to attract Epps's twisted affections, is heartbreaking.
Rather than the gleeful gratuitousness Tarantino employed in Django Unchained, there is cool reason to this assault on our senses, a desire to be true to the complex emotional responses of both black and white characters to the barbarity of the time. The gorgeous imagery does not sweeten the pill so much as remind us of the disjunction between this natural idyll and the behaviour within it.
Ejiofor's performance is all the more towering for its understatement. The actor conveys a myriad of emotions, often at once and without dialogue, chief of which are a dignity and humanity that the film needs in the face of such unfathomable cruelty. He's well supported, notably by Fassbender, the director's favourite actor, whose Epps is at once bloodcurdling and pathetic, and Brad Pitt, whose cameo literally raises the spirits.

Chinese Navy Buildup Gives Pentagon New Worries
By JIM YARDLEY and THOM SHANKER; Jim Yardley reported from Zhanjiang for this article, and Thom Shanker from Washington.
Published: April 8, 2005
At a time when the American military is consumed with operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, global terrorism and the threat of nuclear proliferation in North Korea and Iran, China is presenting a new and strategically different security concern to America, as well as to Japan and Taiwan, in the western Pacific, Pentagon and military officials say.
China, these officials say, has smartly analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of the American military and has focused its growing defense spending on weapons systems that could exploit the perceived American weaknesses in case the United States ever needs to respond to fighting in Taiwan.
A decade ago, American military planners dismissed the threat of a Chinese attack against Taiwan as a 100-mile infantry swim. The Pentagon now believes that China has purchased or built enough amphibious assault ships, submarines, fighter jets and short-range missiles to pose an immediate threat to Taiwan and to any American force that might come to Taiwan's aid.
In the worst case in a Taiwan crisis, Pentagon officials say that any delay in American aircraft carriers reaching the island would mean that the United States would initially depend on fighter jets and bombers based on Guam and Okinawa, while Chinese forces could use their amphibious ships to go back and forth across the narrow Taiwan Strait.
Some American military analysts believe China could now defeat Taiwan before American forces could arrive at the scene, leaving a political decision about whether to attack, even though Taiwan would already be lost.
Even the most hawkish officials at the Pentagon do not believe China is preparing for an imminent invasion of Taiwan. Nor do analysts believe China is any match for the United States military. But as neighboring North Korea is erratically trying to play the nuclear card, China is quietly challenging America's reach in the western Pacific by concentrating strategically on conventional forces.
''They are building their force to deter and delay our ability to intervene in a Taiwan crisis,'' said Eric McVadon, a former military attach?t the United States Embassy in Beijing. ''What they have done is cleverly develop some capabilities that have the prospect of attacking our niche vulnerabilities.''
China's rapid military modernization is the major reason President Bush has warned the European Union not to lift its arms embargo against Beijing. At the same time, some officials in Washington, particularly on Capitol Hill, would like Taiwan to buy more American arms to beef up its own defenses.
Japan, America's closest ally in East Asia and China's rival for regional dominance, is also watching China's buildup and reorganizing its own military. The Japanese prime minister, Junichiro Koizumi, has echoed President Bush by calling on Europe to leave the arms embargo against China in place. A research center affiliated with Japan's Defense Ministry has also criticized China's increased military spending and cautioned that Beijing was rushing to prepare for possible conflict with Taiwan, an assertion China sharply denied.
The growing friction between Japan and China, fueled by rising nationalism in both countries, is just one of the political developments adding to tensions in East Asia. In March, China passed a controversial new ''antisecession'' law authorizing a military attack if top leaders in Beijing believe Taiwan moves too far toward independence -- a move that brought hundreds of thousands of people in Taiwan out to protest China's most recent military white paper also alarmed American policy makers because it mentioned the United States by name for the first time since 1998. It stated that the American presence in the region ''complicated security factors.'' China, meanwhile, accused the United States and Japan of meddling in a domestic Chinese matter when Washington and Tokyo recently issued a joint security statement that listed peace in Taiwan as a ''common strategic objective.''
''The potential for a miscalculation or an incident here has actually increased, just based on the rhetoric over the past six months to a year,'' one American intelligence analyst in Washington said.
At a welcoming ceremony on March 28 for the command ship Blue Ridge, of the American Seventh Fleet, here at the home base of China's South Sea Fleet, the American commanding officer, Capt. J. Stephen Maynard, and his Chinese counterpart, Senior Capt. Wen Rulang, sidestepped questions about the antisecession law and military tensions. Asked about China's military buildup and how America should view it, Captain Wen praised the United States Navy as the most modern in the world.
''As for China,'' Captain Wen said, ''our desire is to upgrade China's self-defense capabilities.''
In China's view, however, self-defense involves Taiwan, which it regards as a breakaway province and which the United States, by treaty, has suggested it would help defend. In 1996, when China fired warning-shot missiles across the Taiwan Strait before the Taiwanese elections, President Clinton responded by sending a carrier battle group to a position near Taiwan. Then, China could do nothing about it, Now, analysts say, it can.

I'm not sure where the concept originated, but when your significant other knows how you take your coffee, it's assumed that your relationship has really made it, so to speak! I'm sure we all have a specific way we like our coffee but do tell ladies, does your significant other know just how you like it?

Off to the best BIG EAST start in 11 seasons and winners of five-straight contests, Steve Lavin and the upperclass St. John's men's basketball team (10-3, 3-0 BIG EAST) head back out on the road to take on No. 14/15 Notre Dame (13-2, 2-1 BIG EAST). The Red Storm and Fighting Irish meet on Saturday at 8 p.m.
No. 14/15 Notre Dame is 13-2 this season and a perfect 10-0 at home. The Fighting Irish are averaging 78.4 points per game and holding opponents to 63.8 points. ND has one of the best rebounding margins in the country as the Fighting Irish are outrebounding their opponents by 7.9 rebounds per game. Notre Dame is also tied for ninth in the country with 18.1 assists per game and the team's 1.7 assist-to-turnover ratio leads the BIG EAST. The Fighting Irish are 2-1 in BIG EAST play and are coming off a 73-70 home win over No. 8/9 Connecticut on Jan. 4. Notre Dame has won 12-straight home contests and has not lost in Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center since St. John's took a 69-68 win on Feb. 14, 2010.
• Notre Dame has very balanced offensive attack as all five of its senior starters are averaging double-digit scoring. Senior Tim Abromaitis leads the team in scoring (16.5 ppg) and rebounding (7.2 rpg) and her 40.2 percent shooting (35-of-87) from 3-point range ranks second on the team. The 6-8 forward has elevated his game in BIG EAST play, averaging 18.0 points per game and shooting 50 percent from the field over three conference games. In conference play, he ranks fourth in 3-point shooting at 61.1 percent (11-of-18). Senior guard Ben Hansbrough leads the team with 4.0 assists per game, ranks second on the team in scoring at 15.6 points per game and has a team-best 44.6 3-point shooting percentage (37-of-83). Hansbrough, who scored 21 against No. 8/9 Connecticut has averaged 16.7 points over three BIG EAST games. Senior forward Carleton Scott (11.9 ppg), senior forward Tyrone Nash (10.2 ppg) and senior guard Scott Martin (10.0 ppg) have also been steady contributors offensively.
• The St. John's senior class is 2-2 against Notre Dame. Seniors Justin Burrell and D.J. Kennedy have been key for the Red Storm against the Fighting Irish. Burrell has averaged 13.8 points and 5.8 rebounds and shot 44.2 percent from the field over four career games against UND. Kennedy has averaged 12.0 points and 6.8 boards and shot 45.9 percent against the Fighting Irish. Senior guard Paris Horne has averaged 8.5 points against UND.
• Notre Dame's two losses came against ranked opponents in then-No. 17 Kentucky on Dec.8 and then-No. 5 Syracuse on Jan. 1. Against Kentucky, both teams were tied at 40 at halftime but ND shot just 20 percent (6-of-30) from the field in the second half and lost, 72-58. In its loss to Syracuse, Notre Dame trailed, 34-33, at the break. A defensive breakdown allowed the Orange to shoot 53.6 percent in the second half as the ND fell, 70-58, in the Carrier Dome.
• In 2009-10, Notre Dame went 23-12 overall and tied for seventh in the BIG EAST with a 10-8 conference record. ND was 17-3 at home and 7-2 at home against conference opponents. Notre Dame's season ended with a 51-50 loss to Old Dominion in the first round of the NCAA Tournament's South Regional in New Orleans, La. The Fighting Irish returned 10 letterwinners from last season, including three starters.
• Notre Dame's Mike Brey is in his 16th year as a head coach and 11th season leading the Fighting Irish. Brey has a 323-167 overall record and has gone 224-115 at ND while leading the Fighting Irish to seven 20-win seasons and six NCAA Tournament appearances. Brey is 5-6 against St. John's and just 1-4 against the Red Storm at the Joyce Center.

|A lightweight framework to track and manage IBM Sametime client plug-ins
It sometimes makes sense to leave users completely in charge of their workstations, giving them complete latitude on installation and product and software versions. However, it can turn into an IT administration headache when direct management is required, for example, to make sure that a certain component has been brought to a required service-pack level to ensure compatibility with a company server. This is particularly true for modular client software such the IBM® Sametime® client which, through its underlying Eclipse and Lotus® Expeditor platform, offers infinite customization possibilities through the addition of new plug-ins or extension of existing ones. To mitigate this problem, this article describes and implements a lightweight and extensible framework to track and manage the configuration information of the Sametime client and plug-ins inside an organization.

IT'S been a while since we have been blown away by Tyrone, but last weekend (February 4) was a sure sign that there is a new team in the making. The last time we witnessed an awesome performance from them was in the 2010 Ulster final when they cleaned Monaghan out.
By their own admission, last year was a bit of a washout. It began with tragedy, and no county or set of players could have realistically hoped to do much after such an occurrence.
One statistic, if I may. 2011 was the first year since Mickey Harte took over as Tyrone manager that they failed to win any silverware. After the Ulster title and Sam Maguire in 2003, they took ownership of the McKenna Cup, winning four in a row. Then there was the All-Ireland in 2008, followed by two Ulsters.
In all the assessments of Mickey Harte's years as manager, I don't believe I was ever made aware of that record. It's quite simply staggering and when you consider the team already have won the McKenna Cup this year, it's some haul of silverware.
Tyrone have taken steps to build on their success, they used the feel-good factor to implement ambitious plans and they went out and got people with influence to pledge their support.
Even as times became more straightened financially, they have pushed through and will open their Centre of Excellence open on the very day of the ten year anniversary of the first All-Ireland. That sort of spirit will see them continually challenge for honours, and it took a lot of guts and hard work.

Philippians and Philemon (New Testament Library) by Charles Cousar. Though this commentary series does not really have a good niche in the commentary market, they have contracted some great scholars (forthcoming – Gaventa on Romans; Joel Green on James; Stephen Fowl on Ephesians). Cousar will offer an excellent 'theological' reading here. His work on the cross is seminal. I don't know much about this commentary except the description hints that Cousar plays up the problem of opponents.
Pauline Parallels (Walter Wilson): parallels to ancient literature such as DSS and greco-roman texts. Almost 500 pages ($50)
Theological Bible Commentary (eds. G.R. O'Day and D.L. Petersen). A one-volume commentary that attempts to 'think theologically' about biblical literature. Questions that will be emphasized include: What does each biblical book say about God? How does the book describe God and portray God's actions? Who is God in these biblical books?
A sampling of contributors: Elizabeth Johnson, Luke Timothy Johnson, Stephen Kraftchich, Sandra Polaski, and Sze-kar Wan.

with my IDE (quincy 99), i try compiling even a simple script, but it always comes up with this error msg:
gcc.exe: cannot specify -o with -c or -S and multiple compilations
what does that mean, and how can I fix it?
with my IDE (quincy 99), i try compiling even a simple script, but it always comes up with this error msg:
gcc.exe: cannot specify -o with -c or -S and multiple compilations
what does that mean, and how can I fix it?
The -c option compiles the source file and stops -- ie, it does not link the resultant object file into an executable.
The -S option produces an assembly code output and stops -- ie, it does not create an object file nor does it create an executable.
In both these cases, the resultant .o or .s file would by default have the same name as the source file -- eg, gcc -c foo.c would produce a foo.o file. The -o option allows you to rename the output file -- gcc -o bar.s foo.c -S would produce a bar.s file.
Obviously, you can only rename the output file of a single source file. So if you run gcc on multiple source files, you cannot change the output names from the default because there's no way to specify the new name for each and every one of the multiple source files. You'd have the ridiculous situation of trying to give the same name to multiple output files in the same directory.
Thanks for the question. I had never thought of trying to use the -o option with the -c and -S options, nor that it could create problems.
Oh, sorry, I forgot. You fix it by either not using the -o option in those cases, thus allowing the output files to receive their default names, or by only compiling single source files when you do want to change the name of the output files with -o .
Last edited by dwise1_aol; April 8th, 2003 at 08:04 PM.
how exactly would I change it?
Well, what are you trying to do?
If you're compiling multiple source files to produce object files or assembly source, then don't use the -o option. Just let the output files default to the source-file names.
If you really want to use the -o option, then compile only one source file at a time.
If it's your IDE that's trying to do this on its own initiative, then check its settings and/or the make file to see what might be causing those options to be set.
Sorry to say, but if the problem is Quincy-specific, you will probably need to find another Quincy user or whoever developed it. But still, check the IDE options and configuration to see if anything I mentioned has been selected.

Chris O'Dowd wanted pet in wedding
Chris O'Dowd's dog was nearly a ring bearer at his wedding.
The Bridesmaids actor married long-term partner, TV presenter-and-writer Dawn Porter, last month. Chris has been quizzed about whether the ceremony had any Bridesmaids-style mishaps.
"No, but there were ongoing negotiations with our dog, Potato, to be the ring bearer," he quipped in an interview with British magazine Closer.
Chris' profile has risen significantly since appearing in the hit comedy, which also stars Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph and Rose Byrne.
The 32-year-old Irish star wasn't always so accepted though.
"I was really tall when I was young - I was like 6ft when I was 11. Pelican was a common nickname. I had tall, gangly legs and ambled across the football field. More length than girth," he laughed.
"I didn't have an imaginary friend but I did talk to myself a lot. And that's kind of the same thing."
