Phil Spector Appeal: Riordan Requests a Do-Over From the 2nd District Court of Appeals
Phil Spector and his hairdo at one of his pretrial hearings
Since I've been knee-deep in covering the James Fayed murder-for-hire trial in Dept. 109 and oblivious to Spector news, I'd like to give a big thanks to Marc Germain of Talk Radio One for the heads up on this story.
The Associated Press is reporting that Phil Spector's appellate attorney Dennis Riordan, has filed a petition with the California 2nd District Court of Appeals for a "second look" at their unanimous decision affirming the conviction of Phil Spector of second degree murder in the death of Lana Clarkson. The appellate ruling came down on May 2nd, 2011 after oral arguments were heard on April 12th of this year.
This is no surprise to me since back when the 2nd District Court of Appeals published their decision, Riordan indicated he would file this petition.

Ideal Window Solutions delayed Installation for Months - Now Refuse Deposit Return and want me to pay an extra admin fee!!Hmm, that is a challenge, my computer ability is limited to copy and paste, which I have included below. Is it very important? I can try and find out but I have the email reply and that is all, sorry Friday, October 23, 2020 5:28:53 PM To: email@example.com <email@example.com> Subject: Order cancellation RF14127D Dear Ideal Window Solutions, On the 11 of June I signed a contract with you to deliver and install double glazed windows. I was promised to get it done within 8 weeks. The timing was very important to me, I made it very clear to you, and this was the main reason I chose your company. For all kind of reasons your promises did not materialised. After a number of phone calls and emails between us I have decided to cancel my contract with you. I am not prepared to wait any longer, also I have no intentions to install windows during rainy winter time. Could you be so kind to refund me my deposit of £100 pounds. If after winter time you will get your problems with your suppliers solved please give me a call, maybe we can try again. I will need new windows anyway. Kind regards,
An update - The salesman who has dealt with most of this is off on Mondays which never helps and the senior service person there who I spoke to last week is also off all week. I got a call from a service advisor today confirming the booking but was concerned I was waiting - explained (again) the story and he understood but on his job card, only had that he had to investigate the tyres and not necessarily replace. Someone either is not communicating or I've been told lies. I have gone through the recording and the salesman clearly states he has gone to upper management, discussed it and we will be replacing the tyres and battery to sort everything out. Sat nav will be resolved tomorrow and they'll be looking at the broken sun visor. I have also emailed regarding the gearbox service - I have a good friend working at Audi servicing at another group and he had mentioned Audi should be carrying out servicing if due within 4 months or so and this was. I raised it pre-collection a number of times and was shutdown each time with "if a service needs to be done, it will be done" Fast forward to today when I got the job card to sign in advance, it clearly states: Date: 20/10/2020 (our pickup day) Carried out MPC & oil service Haldex Reqs gear oil service. The Gearbox service is due at 38k and the car was sold at 35500 well within the 4k which is probably why their own systems have flagged it. Haldex I'm not sure - this seems to be every 20k I think so due in 4.5k. Oil service I can't see how they did it as the service history we got from them (verified by another dealer) was from September. Lets see what they say tomorrow - I have flagged it with the service advisor from today but got no response. Ironically, the friend did mention they've had other POA buyers book their car in elsewhere only to be told various handover bits were not done - I thought it was typical dealer rivalry talk but maybe there is truth in it.

A Shade Greener – ASG boilers – Everlasting Boilers – Maintenance and repair to boiler ending contract
ALLCHAR posted a topic in The building trade and installers,I came across this discussion recently and just wanted to give my experience of A Shade Greener that may help others regarding their boiler finance agreement.
We had a 10yr finance contract for a boiler fitted July 2015.
After a summer of discontent with ASG I discovered that if you have paid HALF the agreement or more you can legally return the boiler to them at no cost to yourself. I've just returned mine the feeling is liberating.
It all started mid summer during lockdown when they refused to service our boiler because we didn't have a loft ladder or flooring installed despite the fact AS installed the boiler. and had previosuly serviced it without issue for 4yrs. After consulting with an independent installer I was informed that if this was the case then ASG had breached building regulations, this was duly reported to Gas Safe to investigate and even then ASG refused to accept blame and repeatedly said it was my problem. Anyway Gas Safe found them in breach of building regs and a compromise was reached.
A month later and ASG attended to service our boiler but in the process left the boiler unusuable as it kept losing pressure not to mention they had damaged the filling loop in the process which they said was my responsibilty not theres and would charge me to repair, so generous of them! Soon after reporting the fault I got a letter stating it was time we arranged a powerflush on our heating system which they make you do after 5 years even though there's nothing in the contract that states this. Coincidence?
After a few heated exchanges with ASG (pardon the pun) I decided to pull the plug and cancel our agreement.
The boiler was removed and replaced by a reputable installer, and the old boiler was returned to ASG thus ending our contract with them. What's mad is I saved in excess of £1000 in the long run and got a new boiler with a brand new 12yr warranty.
You only have to look at TrustPilot to get an idea of what this company is like.

Post in Need to make final payment offers after years of paying my debts off - can no longer afford them..
comebackjimmy posted a post in a topic,Dazza a few months ago I discovered a good friend of mine who had ten debts with cards and catalogues which he was slavishly paying off at detriment to his own family quality of life, and I mean hardship, not just absence of second holidays or flat screen TV's.
I wrote to all his creditors asking for supporting documents and not one could provide any material that would allow them to enforce the debt.
As a result he stopped paying and they have been unable to do anything, one even admitted it was unenforceable.
If circumstances have got to the point where you are finding it unmanageable you must ask yourself why you feel the need to pay. I guarantee you that these companies have built bad debt into their business model and no one over there is losing any sleep over your debt to them! They will see you as a victim and cash cow and they will be reluctant to discuss final offers, only ways to keep you paying with threats of court action or seizing your assets if you have any.
They are not your friends and you owe them no loyalty or moral duty, that must remain only for yourself and your family.
If it was me I would send them all a CCA request. I would bet that not one will provide the correct response and you can quite legally stop paying them until such time as they do provide a response. Even when they do you should check back here as they mostly send dodgy photo copies or generic rubbish that has no connection with your supposed debt.
The money you are paying them should, as far as you are able, be put to a savings account for yourself and as a means of paying of one of these fleecers should they ever manage to get to to the point of a successful court judgement. After six years they will not be able to start court action and that money will then become yours.
They will of course pursue you for the funds and pass your file around various departments of their business and out to third parties.
Your response is that you should treat it as a hobby. I have numerous files of correspondence each faithfully organised showing the various letters from different DCA;s , solicitors etc with a mix of threats, inducements and offers. It is like my stamp collection and I show it to anyone who is interested!

Yesterday President Obama gave a major address on how to tame the budget deficit. The location was George Washington University. Its president Steven Knapp was in attendance as Obama's host.
One thing that occurred to me was that it was kind of a strange location to talk about belt-tightening.
After all, George Washington University has been crowned the most expensive school to attend in the country, costing $56,000 a year.
GW's been the most expensive, or one of them, for many years. As a college applicant it is one of those places where the guidance counselor warns: this is a good school but get ready to drain your family's bank account. The school has even tried to address its reputation as the most-expensive but without much visible success.
In terms of dollars-to-value, GW ranks in the basement. U.S. News, which does not sort by tuition, has it as the 51st best university in the country. Forbes takes cost into consideration when ranking colleges. We have GW as the, get ready: 291st best college.
Would you fill up your brokerage account with shares of what Morningstar calls the 291st best mutual fund? Or pay Mercedes prices for the 51st best car rated by Consumer Reports?
When costs are considered, as they should be, GW ranks down near other expensive schools like the University of Miami and Syracuse University. Forbes ranks it below solid, small, and inexpensive places to get your bachelors, like Grove City College and Fisk University.
Back to Obama's speech. In a sense George Washington is a metaphor for the federal budget. Are we as taxpayers getting our money's worth? Are GW students, who pay the most, getting the best college degree?
There's been some recent literature about a bubble in higher education. Paying $200,000 to send a kid to school for four years is onerous when the average household income in this country is $50,000. That's especially true if you have more than one child--or if he decides to major in something less than practical.
Facebook investor Peter Thiel has recently been getting an audience for his theory that colleges cost way too much. One of my recent subjects, Clayton Christensen, has a new book coming out about how higher education has become like other un-innovative industries. He previewed it here in this talk, comparing colleges like my alma mater to General Motors. They add new features every year and then pass on the costs in an attempt to compete with others schools doing exactly the same thing. Colleges need the equivalent of a Toyota Corona to appear and disrupt their business model.
Did President Obama see the irony of appearing at George Washington University to discuss how to cut spending? Probably not.
He started his speech by saying that the budget debate: "will affect the lives of the students here and families all across America in potentially profound ways."
What else might profoundly affect the finances of an American family? Getting a tuition bill from George Washington University.

Although the current tax law situation can probably reasonably be compared to a liquid rather than a solid, since at least in the minds of legislators it is quite fluid, the IRS has compiled a list of changes governing how you'll pay your taxes this year.
As part of AdvisorOne's Special Report, 22 Days of Tax Planning Advice for 2012, throughout the month of March, here are 12 changes the IRS thinks you and your clients should know about.
1. Timing Is Everything
The first thing you should know is that taxes are due this year on April 17, not April 15. That's thanks to April 15 falling on a Sunday and April 16 being the Emancipation Day holiday in Washington, D.C.
2. Gotta Have the Paperwork
New forms are de rigueur this year for capital gains and losses (new Form 8949, Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets) and foreign financial assets (new Form 8938, Statement of Foreign Financial Assets).
3. It's Not the Car's Years, It's the Mileage
You will need to divvy up your car's mileage for last year based on when you accrued it. For Jan. 1 through June 30, the rate is 51 cents per mile; for the rest of the year it is 55½ cents per mile. For medical and moving mileage the rate is different, of course; Jan.1–June 30, the rate is 19 cents per mile. For the rest of the year it is 23½ cents per mile.
4. Writing It Off
Standard deductions and exemptions, says the IRS, are both up: the amount of the former depends on filing status for those who do not use Schedule A to itemize deductions, but the latter has been increased $50 to $3,700 for 2011.
5. A Matter of Health
If you have a health savings account or an Archer MSA, you will need to know that as of 2011, only prescribed drugs or insulin are qualified medical expenses. Also, the additional tax on distributions from HSAs and Archer MSAs that are not used for qualified medical expenses has increased to 20%.
6. Moving Things Around
The deduction for self-employed health insurance is no longer allowed on Schedule SE (Form 1040), but is now on line 29 of Form 1040 instead.
7. A Higher Alternative
Those subject to it this year will be happy to know that the AMT exemption amount has increased to $48,450 for singles, or $74,450 if married filing jointly or a qualifying widow(er); $37,225 if married filing separately.
8. Wrangling Roths
Did you convert or roll over money from a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA or designated Roth in 2010? If you did, and you did not elect to report the taxable amount on your 2010 return, you generally must report half of it on your 2011 return and the rest on your 2012 return.
9. A Car of a Different Color–er, Type
The alternative motor vehicle credit can only be claimed on a 2011 purchase if the vehicle is a new fuel cell motor vehicle.
10. Home Sweet First Home (For Some)
Most taxpayers who bought their first home last year are out of luck for the credit for first-time homebuyers; it expired before 2011. However, some military personnel and members of the intelligence community can still claim the credit in 2011 for qualified purchases.
11. Another Matter of Health
Recent legislation (there's actually been some?) changed the amount of the health coverage tax credit, which pays qualified health insurance premiums for eligible individuals and their families. Participants who received the 65% tax credit in any month from March to December 2011 may claim an additional 7.5% retroactive credit when they file their 2011 tax return.
12. Don't Forget to Ask for Directions
Last but far from least, the IRS would like you to know that the filing location has changed for a number of areas. If you are still relying on snailmail to send in your return, check the instruction book to see where it should go, or go to www.irs.gov.
See AdvisorOne's Special Report, 22 Days of Tax Planning Advice for 2012, throughout the month of March.

Nine Martyrs at Cyzicus: Theognes, Rufus, Antipater, Theostichus, Artemas, Magnus, Theodotus, Thaumasius, and Philemon
The city of Cyzicus is in Asia Minor on the coast of the Dardenelles (Hellespont). Christianity already began to spread there through the preaching of Saint Paul (June 29). During the persecutions by the pagans, some of the Christians fled the city, while others kept their faith in Christ in secret.
At the end of the third century Cyzicus was still basically a pagan city, although there was a Christian church there. The situation in the city distressed the Christians, who sought to uphold Christianity. The nine holy martyrs Thaumasius, Theognes, Rufus, Antipater, Theostichus, Artemas, Magnus, Theodotus, and Philemon were also from Cyzicus. They came from various places, and were of different ages: the young like Saint Antipater, and the very old like Saint Rufus. They came from various positions in society: some were soldiers, countryfolk, city people, and clergy. All of them declared their faith in Christ, and prayed for the spread of Christianity.
The saints boldly confessed Christ and fearlessly denounced the pagan impiety. They were arrested and brought to trial before the ruler of the city. Over several days they were tortured, locked in prison and brought out again. They were promised their freedom if they renounced Christ. But the valiant martyrs of Christ continued to glorify the Lord. All nine martyrs were beheaded by the sword (+ ca. 286-299), and their bodies buried near the city.
In the year 324, when the Eastern half of the Roman Empire was ruled by Saint Constantine the Great (May 21), and the persecutions against Christians ended, the Christians of Cyzicus removed the incorrupt bodies of the martyrs from the ground and placed them in a church built in their honor.
Various miracles occurred from the holy relics: the sick were healed, and the mentally deranged were brought to their senses. The faith of Christ grew within the city through the intercession of the holy martyrs, and many of the pagans were converted to Christianity.
When Julian the Apostate (361-363) came to rule, the pagans of Cyzicus complained to him that the Christians were destroying pagan temples. Julian gave orders to rebuild the pagan temples and to jail Bishop Eleusius. Bishop Eleusius was set free after Julian's death, and the light of the Christian Faith shone anew through the assistance of the holy martyrs.
In Russia, not far from the city of Kazan, a monastery was built in honor of the Nine Martyrs of Cyzicus. It was built by the hierodeacon Stephen, who brought part of the relics of the saints with him from Palestine. This monastery was built in the hope that through their intercession and prayers people would be delivered from various infirmities and ills, particularly a fever which raged through Kazan in 1687.
Saint Demetrius of Rostov (September 21), who composed the service to the Nine Martyrs, writes, "through the intercession of these saints, abundant grace was given to dispel fevers and trembling sicknesses." Saint Demetrius also described the sufferings of the holy martyrs and wrote a sermon for their Feast day.

Draft of Updated Guidelines for Buses and Vans
April 11, 2007
Discussion of Revisions
In 1991, the U. S. Access Board issued Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines for Transportation Vehicles, codified at 36 CFR Part 1192. These guidelines form the basis for enforceable standards issued by the U. S. Department of Transportation (DOT), codified at 49 CFR Part 38. Except for supplemental provisions for over-the-road buses issued in 1994, the guidelines have not been changed. Since the guidelines were first issued, new technology, vehicles and services have been introduced into public transportation. In 2006, the Board decided to update and refresh the vehicle guidelines.
The guidelines are divided into eight subparts. Subpart A includes general provisions pertaining to all vehicles covered by the DOT regulation (49 CFR Part 37), subparts B through G cover vehicles for various modes, and subpart H covers all other vehicle and service types. The Board plans to update the provisions subpart by subpart, beginning with Subpart B Buses, Vans and Systems, along with some correlated modifications to Subpart A. The first step is publication of this draft and request for comment. Comments on the draft received during the 60-day comment period will be considered in creating a subsequent Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), which will be open for additional comment. A final rule will be issued after comments to the NPRM are analyzed. The updated guidelines will apply to buses, vans and similar vehicles procured or modified after an effective date to be established by DOT when it issues standards based on the final guidelines.
Subpart A contains definitions for all the modes, but, for purposes of this draft, only those definitions pertaining to buses, vans and similar vehicles are included for reference. Most of them are not being recommended for change. A new definition of "bridgeplate" has been added. These devices are common for rail vehicles, but are new to buses because of Bus Rapid Transit. The definition of "common wheelchair" has been removed because it was misunderstood and misused. First, definitions are not regulatory. They are provided to help affected parties understand the requirements which are contained in the regulatory text. Second, the Access Board has no authority to regulate wheelchairs or mobility aids. Nevertheless, some transit agencies were using the definition to exclude certain wheelchairs from receiving service, even when those wheelchairs could be accommodated within the vehicle. The Board's guidelines only apply to vehicles, so a new paragraph (c) is being proposed in 1192.21 to clarify the minimum width, length and height envelope which must be available within the vehicle, for it to be deemed accessible. The three-dimensional space must be available from the entrance to securement locations. A manufacturer or transit provider is not required to design or modify a vehicle to provide additional space to accommodate a wheelchair or mobility aid which is larger or weighs more than the lift, ramp or bridgeplate design load. Whether a provider must transport a wheelchair which exceeds those limits, but can still fit within the vehicle, is a matter for DOT to decide. The Board specifically requests comments on how to make the language of this section clearer.
A new paragraph (d) in section 1192.21 is intended to provide guidance to designers of Bus Rapid Transit projects which are often designed and executed as a system involving both vehicles and stop improvements. Since these guidelines are for vehicles, this paragraph is included here only to facilitate review and comment. When the Board issues its NPRM proposing changes to the vehicle guidelines, a provision similar to paragraph (d) may be proposed as an amendment to the ADA and ABA Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities. Alternatively, DOT may add this section to its regulations in 49 CFR Part 37.
Paragraph (a) in section 1192.23 on mobility aid accessibility has been reordered and renumbered. The existing guidelines contain only a general performance requirement for maneuvering clearance. Performance requirements are intended to give design flexibility, but, in practice, this section has lead to disputes between manufacturers and transit agencies on whether a particular design complies. The revised section attempts to add more specificity by requiring a route from the entrance to securement locations with a minimum 36 inch width. This is consistent with accessible routes in buildings, but has not previously been applied to vehicles. The Board recognizes that vehicles are constrained by road lane width and some restrictions in tunnels and bridges. The Board requests comments on the feasibility of this requirement. If a 36 inch width is not possible, would a 32 inch minimum width be achievable? In addition, front door entry necessitates a right angle turn. The available space is constrained by the fare box, driver seat, modesty panels and wheel wells. A 5-foot turning circle is not possible. In building standards, a 42-inch minimum aisle is required to turn into a 36-inch wide aisle. Can this be achieved in a bus? How can the maneuvering and turning space be defined so that compliance is more verifiable?
A problem frequently raised is accommodation of larger and heavier wheelchairs. Some size increases may not be achievable because of external constraints on vehicles which are beyond the control of the guidelines. Others could be solved with rear door entry. The Board is not inclined to mandate either front or rear door entry because of environmental barriers at bus stops. The draft does attempt to partially address the weight issue by specifying a higher design load for lifts, ramps and bridgeplates.
Lift manufacturers have told the Board that some jurisdictions specify a higher weight for lifts (e.g., 720 lbs). On the other hand, a review of available ramp specifications indicates 660 lbs is the weight limit. Even though lifts may be designed for more, most transit agencies intersperse ramp and lift buses. If lifts and ramps had different requirements, a passenger might make a trip on a lift-equipped bus and then discover he or she could not get home because a ramp bus arrived for the return trip. Therefore, the draft proposes raising the design to 660 lbs, from the current 600 lb requirement. Another factor to be considered is that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued standards prescribing a whole series of tests based on the 600 lb requirement, in particular, the outer barrier test. What are the safety implications for a 700 lb wheelchair, for example, if the barrier is only designed to contain 600 lbs? The Board intends to coordinate its rulemaking with NHTSA.
Requirements for ramps have been simplified in paragraph (c) of section 1192.23. Instead of the complicated and confusing slopes tied to floor height, the proposal is to set the maximum slope at 1:8 in all cases, including when deployed to the roadway. This is possible now because of new ramp designs not available when the current guidelines were issued. In addition, in paragraph (c)(5) the draft requires only one door intended for boarding wheelchairs to meet this requirement if it can be accessed from all required securement locations. Other doors can have short bridgeplates. This is primarily intended to accommodate Bus Rapid Transit systems which have multiple doors boarding from platforms at vehicle floor height. A new provision has also been added in paragraph (c)(9) to require power operated ramps and bridgeplates to be deployable manually.
The securement design load provisions are unchanged. There has been considerable discussion over the years as to the adequacy or necessity of the force requirements. Currently, the requirement is primarily performance oriented. It does not specify a "four-point tiedown" although this has become the general norm. There has also been confusion about the purpose of securement devices. The securement system is not intended as passenger restraint or for protection of the wheelchair user. It is intended to duplicate, to the extent possible, the requirement on all other bus seats that they remain affixed to the vehicle in the event of a crash. The seat belt and shoulder harness, the use of which is at the option of the passenger, are provided primarily for persons with limited upper body strength who want additional stability. DOT has ruled that seat belt and shoulder harness use cannot be required unless all passengers are required to use them. In addition, DOT permits transit operators to establish a policy not to require securement. Nevertheless, a vehicle must have securement devices, seat belts and shoulder harnesses to be considered accessible. Seat belts and shoulder harnesses are currently required to comply with applicable provisions of 49 CFR 571. The Board seeks comment on whether the Society of Automotive Engineers standard would be better (http://www.sae.org/technical/standards/ground_vehicle/ACTIV).
Securement location and size requirements have been revised to require additional space where the area is constrained on three sides by seats, modesty panels, wheel wells, etc. The provisions are taken from requirements for alcoves in the new ADA and ABA Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities. Two figures from that document will be included. A current provision allowing some of the required floor space to be under seats and panels has been removed. That provision worked for wheelchair footrests, but could not accommodate many scooters which have a front tiller control.
The provision for wheelchairs to be accommodated has been changed to remove the reference to common wheelchairs. Instead it would refer to the special requirements in 1192.21(c). The DOT regulation at 49 CFR 37.165(f) requires transit personnel to assist passengers with boarding, alighting and securement use. The stowage provision has been clarified so that the securement device cannot protrude into the required clear floor area. Also, the size of the padded barrier behind a rear-facing securement location has been refined.
The failure of bus drivers to call out stops as required by the DOT rule has been identified as a significant problem. Therefore, the draft proposes to require an automated system. In addition, a visual display is required to provide the same or equivalent information to people who cannot hear the auditory announcements..
Other changes clarify the vertical clearance required from the vehicle entrance to securement locations, eliminates the requirement for an overhead handrail in favor of seat-back handholds, deletes a specific placement for exterior lights, and incorporates signage specifications from the ADA and ABA Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities.

Buffett praises potential successors, but no plans to retire
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Warren Buffett says two potential successors earned roughly million each last year managing Berkshire Hathaway's dozens of operating companies.
Buffett appeared on CNBC Monday after releasing his annual letter to shareholders over the weekend.
Buffett says Greg Abel and Ajit Jain have both done a great job since they joined Berkshire's board in early 2018. Jain oversees the conglomerate's insurance businesses while Abel oversees non-insurance business operations.
He says one of the two longtime Berkshire executives will likely become CEO eventually, but the 88-year-old Buffett has no plans to retire.
Buffett also says the two investment managers that Berkshire hired several years ago have done well, though their investments have trailed the S&P 500 a bit since they joined Berkshire. He did say both have outperformed his own investments.

I read an article about possibility of existence of multiverse and came up with a conflicting view with one of the sentences written in the article which goes as follows:
"If space-time goes on forever, then it must start repeating at some point, because there are a finite number of ways particles can be arranged in space and time."
What does this mean? What does it mean to say when it hints that it must start repeating at some point? Also, where are these multiverses enclosed within? If they are expanding at such a rate, is the container in which they are enclosed also expanding?

Coast Guard seizes 153 sharks from Mexican poachers
SAN ANTONIO -- More than 150 sharks were seized by the U.S. Coast Guard in the Gulf of Mexico on Sunday from Mexican poachers.
Crews intercepted the relatively small fishing boat, known as a "lancha," after a "risky high-speed chase," according to the agency.
The Coast Guard seized 153 sharks weighing more than 1,500 pounds from the group of four poachers. The crew was towed to South Padre Island, where the vessel was kept in custody, and the individuals were deported to Mexico.
The boat was spotted by Corpus Christi crews around 7:30 a.m. about 3 miles north of the border and 22 miles offshore, but the chase led the Coast Guard about four miles into Mexican waters.
"These events are always time sensitive due to sighting the lancha in close proximity to the international boundary line," said Lt. Austin Montanez, a pilot aboard the Falcon. "It takes incredible teamwork among the responding units and every second can mean the difference between an interdiction and one of the many that got away."
The Coast Guard had a busy week, according to the news release.
"Earlier in the week, the Coast Guard Cutter Brant spotted five lanchas and chased two of them south of the border. Falcon aircrews also spotted and pursued two lanchas. In total, Coast Guard crews aboard the Brant, Amberjack, and Sturgeon also found and seized approximately 17 miles of long line fishing gear. Each mile of long line have scores of baited hooks and are capable of catching hundreds of fish. The seized lines were discovered with 212 Red Snapper, 107 Sharks and several other reef fish. Many of them were found alive and were released at sea," the release reads.

Male-Female Split on Economic Issues Promises to Shape Midterm Elections
Democrats Hope Their Appeal to Women Blunts GOP Congressional Gains
WASHINGTON—Men and women are far apart in their views of the economy and economic opportunity, differences that help explain a gap in their outlook on politics that is shaping the midterm elections.
This week's Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll found that women are more in sync with Democrats on a range of economic issues, including minimum wages and concerns about growing income inequality. With Republicans holding substantial advantages this year, the Democrats' appeal among women could provide a bulwark against a political...

We passed the bill, and even now we are still finding out what is in it. When Nancy Pelosi said we had to pass the 2,700 page healthcare bill to find out what was in it, that's because nobody really knew. Turns out they missed something big. If a state can't pay the $2 billion to set up a state run health insurance exchange and passes on that portion of the law, the federal government cannot provide the poor in that state with health insurance tax credits. In other words, if states spend their limited resources on teachers, roads, police, firemen, and libraries instead of building one of Obama's bureaucratic insurance exchanges, the poor not only don't get help buying health insurance, but then have to pay the penalty tax for not buying health insurance.
If $695 in penalty taxes is enough to bankrupt a homeless person, than you can count Obama's claim that no one would ever face bankruptcy for medical reasons again as one more broken promise.
There is a provision for the federal government to set up a national exchange for states who don't or can't spend the money to build their own. However, a simple mistake in the law, or possibly an intentional penalty, only allows for federal tax credits to individuals in states with state run exchanges. Perhaps Obama thought that by the time the law was implemented states would be able to shell out an additional $2 billion to pay for it.
Personally, I support Governor Scott's decision to use that $2 billion to keep Florida from having to lay off teachers in our already hurting school districts.
Add this unforced error to Obamacare and there are few silver linings left for most Americans. Families can keep their kids on their health insurance up to age 26, but in many cases these "kids" are either old enough to be out on their own or are still students and could actually get student health insurance plans for far cheaper than the cost of being added on to their parent's plan. At the same time, the cost of adding 25 year olds to family plans has helped raise rates for everyone. There is the tax credit for small businesses, but a tax credit for businesses with 15 or fewer employees who make less than $50,000 but can still afford to provide health insurance and pay an accountant who knows how to figure the credit are few and far in between.
When the health insurance taxes are fully implemented and the price of health insurance shoots high enough, no one will get health insurance until they get sick. In states that can't afford exchanges, the poor won't get insurance either. The very problem Obamacare sought to fix, that of middle class and poor "free-loaders" who either can't afford insurance or decide not to buy it, will be made infinitely worse by Obamacare.
One more thing to add to this mess is that many states can't afford the Medicaid expansion either. Liberals are scratching their heads trying to figure out why states would forgo more Medicaid money. But it's like this: picture if someone with a million dollars in debt invited you to have steak dinner with him at the most expensive restaurant in town. The two stipulations are this, first you have to pay half, second you have to then do the same thing for every dinner for the rest of your life. And if this man with a million dollars of debt can no longer afford his half, you're stuck with it. Would you accept the offer of "free" steak? State's can't afford their half of the Medicaid expansion, and they certainly know Uncle Sam can't afford his share either.
In the end, Obamacare is bad news for the majority of Americans.

Premiering Friday, November 16th at 10:30pm ET/PT
"Recipe for Disaster"
O'Donnell's, a small-town Louisiana mainstay, prides itself on its great reputation but if the staff can't get a handle on their health violations they could lose it all. With the help of Ben Vaughn, an expert in cleaning restaurants to bring them up to health code, the staff will be forced to clean up their act. With a health inspection looming, will O'Donnell's sink or swim?
Premiering Friday, November 23rd at 10:30pm ET/PT
"A Game of Chicken"
The owner of King Vic's in Michigan has noble aspirations for his all-American restaurant but he's so consumed with building his empire that he has neglected his kitchen and is buried in health code issues. With a health inspection approaching and Vic's life's savings on the line, the pressure is on to get the place up to code or Vic risks losing it all. Will Ben Vaughn, a restaurant consultant and the foremost expert in cleaning up dirty restaurants, manage to get Vic successfully through his health inspection or will the restaurant fall from grace?
Raised in Florida, Ben Vaughn started cooking in his grandmother's kitchen before attending the Ft. Lauderdale Art Institute where he learned from some of the country's finest chefs. After graduation, Vaughn moved on to become partner and chef at River Oaks restaurants and then own two critically acclaimed restaurants, Grace and Au Fond Farmtable, located in Memphis, Tenn. Vaughn's transition from chef to consultant was triggered by his passion for teaching others and his desire to pass along the valuable lessons he learned throughout his restaurant career. Vaughn lives in Atlanta, Ga. where he now dedicates his career to helping food establishments and is the culinary director and executive chef for Brewed to Serve Restaurant Group and White Oak Kitchen & Cocktails.

What ho, pre!
No, neither of those boot codes originate from Puppies, although I've seen the vga=normal suggested somewhere about six months or more ago on this Forum. They were codes I used to use with Knoppix 1.0.0 ! But it was said somewhere that these are common to the Linux kernel. Any road up, they don't do any harm and I have had them work occasionally in the situations you describe.
As for the 754, - No. Mind you, I've had endless trouble with 939 BIOSes. Had to unsolder one once with an electric paint stripper, flash it externally using the /F (force) switch on an alien board, fit a socket and put the BIOS chip in that. It worked for a while, but it gradually dawned on me that the 939 is a design disaster, probably a stop-gap until the Phenom and multiple cores arrived. Not like AMD to pull a fast one like that. Shame really because the multiple core designs are an even bigger disaster, some of Intel's latest are devouring 120W. So much for their lies about running cooler. That is one dud company that has never conquered the thermal issues associated with faster, smaller and thinner - sometimes I even wonder if there's anyone there familiar with Ohm's/Kichoff's/ all-those-other-guys-Laws in school physics?!
The big attraction of 754 and 939 is they have two IDE ports. I was reading elsewhere today the old urban myths about SATA being trotted out again. Now, I'm not sure about SATAIII, but there is
actual speed gain between ATA100 (ATA133 is like hen's teeth) and SATAI&II. If one reads very very carefully. it's the spec. for SATA that's a lot faster - real drives barely manage ATA transfer rates. It's the old rotating machinery paradox. In principal, SSSD s should be faster, but only if the bus can handle it and their lifetimes in terms of read-write cycles might be uncertain? Early flash memory was suspect in that regard, although I've had no problems with multiple writes. Perhaps we won't know for some years yet?

Post subject: desktop icons
Subject description: explanation
Many thanks for you patience with this new kennel member. I am trying to find out about the security and accessibility of windows 7 64-bit drives which are seen as icons on the desktop of fatdog64 601 booted from a live cd.
Could you please help me understand the following: Clicking on said icons, mounted or unmounted, then right-clicking "edit item", a "locked" check box appears. Just exactly what will be locked. Does it lock the win 7 drive only in linux or does it carry over to windows?
Are there other methods available in fatdog64 to limit acces of windows drives?
I'appreciate your reply

There is no such thing as a "64-bit drive". Instead, you should refer to them by their filesystem type. They are probably NTFS.
Clicking on said icons, mounted or unmounted, then right-clicking "edit item", a "locked" check box appears.
If you click on any other desktop icon, you will see the same Locked option. It refers to the behaviour of the icon itself, not to how the drive is treated.
Does it lock the win 7 drive only in linux or does it carry over to windows?
Are there other methods available in fatdog64 to limit acces of windows drives?
Here is a trick to make NTFS partitions read-only in Fatdog.
1. Go to the folder /bin
2. Rename the file ntfs-3g as ntfs-3g-xxx

At prompt ran xorgwizard-old.
Next problem, tried this with and without graphics card, and never succeeded in configuring much of anything. I keep getting the defective report screen with resolution and refresh rates missing at the end.
Yep, xorgwizard-old is broke, I haven't used it for ages. Fatdog64 by default runs without an xorg.conf. We really don't want use a xorg.conf file. So I think we'll do away with xorgwizard and xorgwizard-old. Xorg determines which resolution to use based on the EDID data from the monitor, so if monitor doesn't report EDID data or reports it in correctly, Xorg has to guess about the resolution. For non vesa drivers (drivers that are xrandr compliant) resolution can be set with xrandr or the Display Properties in the control panel. I'll fix the pfix=vesa boot option to make an entry in /usr/X11R7/lib64/X11/xorg.conf.d/. That's where want to make changes to Xorg. Thanks for reporting this.
Can I get VESA to go beyond 1024x768 in FATDOG? If so, how?
Maybe, you'll need to find out if your card supports vesa modes of that resolution and if your monitor supports that resolution. You can look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log or run ddcprobe, which will list both. Then you'll need to make a file, /usr/X11R7/lib64/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-gpudriver.conf:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "vesa" #Choose the driver used for this monitor
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0" #Collapse Monitor and Device section to Screen section
Device "Device0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 16 #Choose the depth (16||24)
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768" #Choose the resolution
After that make sure there's no /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. You may or may not have to use the nomodeset kernel boot option depending on your hardware, but nomodeset is a safe bet with vesa. We need to update our FAQs with this information. I expect most 64bit systems (probably less than 5 years old) to be EDID compliant and setting the resolution won't be needed for vesa. Well, hopefully we won't need vesa ether, usually that happens Nvidia or something really new.

It works, but I would like to do this:
Put Fatdog64 in a folder, and have the .sfs and save files there too.
Now say I make a folder called "fatdog", put the vmlinuz and initrd files in there, I can easily add /fatdog/ to the lines in the grub text that load the above mentioned files and it works, I've already tried this and it works fine.
But the problem is that it won't load any save or .sfs files I put in the folder, as opposed to other Puppies where this works fine.
Is there any commands I can add to the grub to make it load the save and .sfs files placed in a folder and not the higher level of the directory?

There is for the save file. See the Boot options page in the FAQs.
Example grub entry:
title Fatdog64-610 (on /dev/sda6)
rootnoverify (hd0,5)
kernel /610/vmlinuz savefile=direct:device:sda6:/610/fd64save.ext4
initrd /610/initrd
The savefile argument means to use a savefile named fd64save.ext4 located in /fd610 directory of /dev/sda6, save directly to it.
EDIT: Just saw rcrsn51's post. Ditto on the Menu > Control Panel > Utilities > Savefile Argument Builder.

The monitor in question is a 21" perfectly-flat CRT manufactured by Sony and rebranded by SGI. It reports that it is a
. Something in Fatdog 610 must recognize that it has 1600x1200 resolution because that is what leads to the microscopic fonts.
It does report EDID data, just not the version you are expecting. A look at the history of EDID indicates the current version will not have a long product life. Windows can recognize it after drivers for nVidia or ATI are loaded. Prior to that it defaults to generic.
Aside: I use the old CRT because of the good dynamic range of the phosphors. This one can be calibrated to a known gamma for retouching work on photographs. Getting this on modern LCD displays can be hard, expensive or impossible. You can also find these CRTs still in use among various graphic designers.
One incidental side benefit is that any thief who makes off with it can be caught when he ruptures himself.

I tested Fatdog64-521.iso with Right-click-6.0.2.pet
My conclusion --->
It mostly works but needs mhwaveedit to be installed
and more icons need to be installed available.

If that's the highest supported resolution, then that's what we want. If the fonts are too small, switching to a lower resolution is not a good solution. Open the Control Panel, click on the Desktop tab and click on Set global font size. Select a higher dpi for your fonts and restart X to see what it looks like.
Or Xorg can automatically calculate the font size, maybe we will do that. You just delete or rename /root/.Xresources and restart X and see if that looks good.

I think there is a misunderstanding here. I was talking about font sizes outside of the X window system. I know about adjusting font sizes under X. (In that case, adjusting icons, etc. is also necessary. Reducing the resolution may be a sensible option in some cases, even if it isn't in the case you are thinking about.)
Even when the frame buffer does not get messed up, the text console fonts, which were previously readable, suddenly become microscopic during the boot sequence, making it hard to tell what is going on when there is a problem in getting to X and a desktop, or in the reboot/shutdown sequence, when there is a failure to save.
The general problem I'm getting at is one of robustness when things go wrong. This applies not just to software, which can't anticipate every problem, but to the system of software, hardware and people dealing with issues. If I wanted software which does everything for me when things go right, and leaves me helpless when something goes wrong, I might have stayed with M$.
Puppy has always impressed me with the ability to fall back to some lower level of operation where it is possible to isolate a problem well enough that knowledgeable people can fix it quickly.
For example, Barry's Simple Network Setup was not the first try at that function, or even the second. It would not have come into existence without considerable preceding history. Even today, when things go wrong, I check on how Dougal's network setup handles it. At least this narrows the range of places to check for faults. Sometimes it works when SNS fails. Those cases are becoming rarer, but both tools remain available in 5.4.2. I've known experienced network people to become very frustrated while trying to make Windows automatic network tools work.
Losing the ability to fall back to text console video setup strikes me as a mistake.

First Look: Hogo, a New Rum Bar from The Passenger Team, Washington DC
Preview brand-new spots to drink (or fresh new menu items) here.
Head just two doors down from The Passenger in Washington, DC, and you'll be greeted by the giant face of Bill Murray's Steve Zissou. Step inside, pay your respects to Zombie Elvis on your immediate left, and you'll find the new rum bar by Tom Brown (of The Passenger). Hogo is your opportunity to explore the Caribbean vicariously through Tom's ever-growing collection of more than 80 different rums and a bevy of Caribbean inspired cocktails.
Tom Brown has always had a soft spot for spirit categories that offer diversity. Take Scotch, for instance, which Tom describes as ranging from "light and feminine to smoky and masculine." This translated naturally to a love of rum: from rums with touches of dark molasses to the grassy bottles of rhum agricole, Tom's encyclopedic knowledge and passion for rum is more than evident in the fact that he can't seem to stop buying the stuff. Described by Hogo head bartender, Julia Hurst, as a "compulsive shopper," Tom simply attributes his compulsion to a desire to share the things he likes with DC.
The current list of 13 cocktails at Hogo is filled with classic punches and tiki drinks, in an opening appeal to get people used to the concept and familiar with rum. Stop by soon and you'll find island stalwarts like the Blackheart's Punch, which brightens rum with lime and cinnamon syrup for a sweet-spicy finish, and the Volcano Bowl, a spin on the Scorpion bowl with four different rums, citrus, and a smoothing maple syrup.
Later on, Hogo will move toward a largely proprietary menu, à la The Passenger's cocktail board. There are also plans to offer rum flights to facilitate exploration of Tom's extensive rum library.
To mix it up further, Hogo has joined the Temporary Works Project, which entails loaning the bar's kitchen out to different chefs as a platform to "cook bar food with their own twists." First up is Javier Duran, The Passenger's chef, who's been whipping up Hawaiian food (think Loco Moco, spam, and Kalua pork), which serves the island theme, but the kitchen will not be limited to the Life Aquatic. The upcoming docket of visiting chefs is still being worked out, but there are tantalizing names being bandied about, like 2012 Rammy Rising Culinary Star of the Year, Ed Witt, and Yuji Haraguchi of Brooklyn's Yuji Ramen, that will ensure that you have a steady stream of innovative bar food to soak up all of that rum.

| 10.6°C Belfast
Ray Wilkins believes it is "out of the question" that Chelsea would sack under-fire new manager Rafael Benitez before the end of the season.
Benitez has overseen two draws and Saturday's 3-1 defeat to West Ham since he was recruited on an interim basis to replace Roberto Di Matteo. The Spaniard admitted he was "not 100%" certain of his future but Wilkins, the former Chelsea assistant boss, cannot see Roman Abramovich making another managerial change.
"I would think that is totally out of the question," Wilkins told Sportsweek on Radio Five Live.
"They have asked him to come in and do a job and no doubt he is trying to work very hard to do it. Unfortunately the results are going against him at the moment. It has been a very difficult period for Chelsea Football Club and at the moment they are struggling."
Benitez is in charge until the end of the season but Wilkins suggested Chelsea are running out of options for the permanent managerial post.
"If Pep Guardiola was to come in and was sacked then where do you go?" Wilkins said.
"He is supposedly the best on the planet. He is a young man of 41. You have Mourinho out there but would Jose come back? I have no idea.
"Gus Poyet would be a good choice. He is cutting his teeth at Brighton, he has been at Leeds and Swindon so he knows the trade and he is a Chelsea legend, as Roberto Di Matteo was. The options are now being closed down rather rapidly."
Wilkins put Chelsea's recent woes down to the absence of John Terry at the back and Frank Lampard's goal-scoring contribution from midfield.
"When you lose those goals from the middle of the field, you have a massive problem," Wilkins said. "Whether it is the club who spends money or Rafa who spends money, it has to be done because the season is coming to a rather rapid halt and we are not even at Christmas yet."

Orlando Timber Creek slot receiver Javonte Seabury picked up another major offer Wednesday while visiting Florida State.
Seabury, a 5-foot-9, 165-pound senior who is the older brother of running back prospect Jacques Patrick, was swinging through Tallahassee with five other high school prospects on the final leg of a week-long, college-campus tour.
Seabury started off the trip by receiving an offer over the phone from Miami while he was at Auburn on Friday, and FSU joined the mix Wednesday when head coach Jimbo Fisher served up an invite to come play for the ACC school.
"I was in Jimbo's office when he offered," Seabury said, "and he told me he would like me to come to his school and he liked me a lot."
Seabury, the No. 31-ranked player in the Sentinel's 2014 Central Florida Super60, also has one other Football Bowl Subdivision offer from Kent State, which was his first offer. Football Championship Subdivision member Samford has also offered.
Also on the trip with Seabury and Patrick are Orlando Jones DB C.J. Jennings Jr., Palm Bay Bayside LB Greg Miclisse, Merritt Island DB Shaq Jones and Cocoa OL-DL Freddie Booth-Lloyd. The six, who are being chaufferred around by Brevard Elite 7-on-7 coach Josh Bourne, hit several campuses during the past week, including LSU, South Alabama, Tulane, Troy, Samford, Auburn, Georgia, Georgia Tech and others.
Seabury has been impressing coaches all over the southeast with his speed this summer. He was the fastest man of the summer at Miami's Al Golden camps, runnig a 4.38-second 40-yard dash there two weekends ago (July 7).
At LSU camp on Tuesday, Seabury rolled out of the car and without even stretching, popped a 4.40 40 time on the Baton Rouge campus. He vows that with a little more tweaking on his technique he can hit 4.29.
"I can do it ... just like Deion Sanders," he said.
Seabury, who missed half of his junior season with an Achilles injury, had an impressive spring game in a rout of Sebastian River. He caught five passes for 160 yards and three touchdowns. Timber Creek was 10-2 last year, losing in the state quarterfinals to eventual Class 8A champion Apopka.

Civil War in Russia (2)
Download price-list (Excel)
Contact Us
The BM-27 Uragan (Russian: Óðàãàí, 'hurricane') is a self-propelled multiple rocket launcher system designed in the Soviet Union. It began its service with the Soviet Army in the late 1970s, as its first modern spin and fin stabilized heavy multiple rocket launcher. This system is capable of launching 220 mm rockets from 16 launch tubes mounted on the rear of a ZIL-135 8x8 chassis. This vehicle is extremely similar to that used in the FROG-7 free flight rocket system. It has 2 gasoline engines that power its 20 tonnes to a maximum speed of 65 kilometers per hour. One engine drives the 4 wheels on the left of the truck while the other engine drives the 4 wheels on the right. The ZIL-135 has 8 wheel drive, but only the front and rear axles are used for steering. It has a maximum cruising range of 500 kilometers.
The cab of the ZIL-135 is NBC protected, allowing the rockets to be fired without exposing the crew to possible contaminants. The crew of 4 can emplace or displace the system in 3 minutes.
Before firing, stabilizing jacks must be lowered and the blast shield raised to protect the cab and its occupants. Indirect fire aiming is achieved with the use of a PG-1 panoramic telescope. Although there are no night vision sights, the driver of the launch vehicle is equipped with a night vision device.
The BM-27 can use HE-FRAG, chemical, ICM or scatterable mine PTM-3 or PFM-1) submunition equipped rockets all of which are detonated by electric timing fuses. Each rocket weighs 280.4 kilograms. The warheads weigh between 90 and 100 kilograms depending on type. A full salvo of 16 rockets can be fired in 20 seconds and can engage targets within a range of 35 kilometers.
Because of the size of the warhead, the range of the rocket and the speed that a salvo can be delivered, the BM-27 is very effective at mine laying. Each 220 mm rocket can scatter 312 anti-personnel PFM-1 mines. Minefields can be laid behind a retreating enemy or even be used to trap an enemy by encircling them with mines. Tactics such as this were often used by the Soviets in Afghanistan.
Once the rockets have been fired, 9T452 (another ZIL-135 based vehicle) is used to assist in reloading. It carries additional rockets and a crane to transfer the rockets from the reload vehicle to the launcher. The entire reloading procedure takes around 20 minutes.

Translation thanks to Sonia
Star of Cosmopolis, the new movie by David Cronenberg, in competition at Cannes, RP was a willing participant to a crazy photoshoot that lasted 13 hours! Find out more in the May issue.
In general, when you organize a photoshoot with an actor, whose movies made more than 2.7 billion of dollars all over the world, you except someone cold and shy, someone with a controled image and with a safeguard. Everything is timed to the last minute, especially if the actor arrives late, everything has to be started over again. I say 'in general' because all of this doesn't apply to Robert Pattinson!
It's at the end of our interview that the actor comes up with the idea of a photoshoot dedicated to David Cronenberg's movies. Like an hommage to his respect for the filmmaker, who by casting him in Cosmopolis, offered him not only a passport for after Twilight but aslo the opportunity to come and celebrate his entry to the adulte age, on the steps of Cannes on May 25th.
To say that he got involved in the making of the photoshoot is an euphemism. The first images of Scanners and Videodrome we prepared for him as an inspiration for the future snapshots came back to us with an unexepected commentary: Rob was sorry that they weren't more daring, wanting to push all the limits with this shoot - the complete opposite of what someone in his position would have asked. Two days later, the photograph Eliot Lee Hazel and his crew - sort of strange for this kind of shoot (a special effect makeup artist, a pregnant lady ...) - met in a glummy hotel in downtown L.A. to give the go-ahead of this shoot that lasted for exactly 13 hours.
After seeing the results of this shoot, we're ready to bet that you won't look at Robert Pattinson the same way again. That the last pretence who might still weigh on the actor will fly away as fast as they appeared.

Nouriel Roubini's EconoMonitor website published a scathing piece by University of Oregon Professor Tim Duy on Friday (later tweeted by Roubini), in which Duy refers to a lack of concrete steps taken by European Central Bank chief Mario Draghi as "epic" and "almost funny if it wasn't so sad."
"Teetering on the abyss with record high unemployment putting the lie to his claims about the strength of the eurozone, Draghi chooses to play mind games with financial markets," Duy writes. "This marks a new low in European crisis management."
After Draghi's bold words about protecting the euro last week, markets expected him to deliver some sort of drastic action to do so and to relieve pressure on bond yields, which have climbed steadily higher for Spain and Italy. But the ECB "failed to meet the unintentionally ramped-up expectations" of financial market participants.
Indeed, the ECB "did exactly nothing," according to Duy. "No new policies, just vague promises about policies that may or may not be implemented in the future."
"When all you have is a hammer, everything is a nail. The ECB will not do anything until European rescue funds are activated under traditional guidelines."
The bottom line, he concludes, is that it was an epic policy failure by the ECB.
"Not only is the ECB willing to let the euro crisis simmer for another month, but their communication strategy is abysmal. Draghi very desperately needs to be more aware of the impact of his comments."

Undefeated welterweight prospect Chris Lozano (5-0 MMA, 0-0 BFC) was recently announced as the newest member of the Bellator Fighting Championships' roster, and it appears his first matchup has already been determined.
MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) has learned from sources close to the fighter that Lozano has agreed to meet five-time UFC veteran Yoshiyuki Yoshida (11-5 MMA, 0-0 BFC) at Bellator 31.
Bellator officials have yet to officially announce the contest, which takes place Sept. 30 at L'Auberge du Lac Casino and Resort in Lake Charles, La.
As with all Bellator events, Bellator 31 airs on FOX Sports Net.
Lozano, who was recently announced as a Bellator signee, rattled off four-straight first-round stoppages to open his career. "The Assassin" earned a fourth-round TKO over UFC and PRIDE veteran Jason Dent in his most recent outing.
Currently training at the Strong Style Gym in Ohio, Lozano began training in tae kwon do and boxing when he was a kid. Lozano added in wrestling to his skillset beginning in middle school.
"Fighting for an organization like Bellator Fighting Championships is a dream come true," Lozano stated in Bellator's official release announcing the signing. "To finally get a chance to compete amongst the best in the world is something I have spent my entire life focusing on and dreaming of."
Meanwhile, Yoshida looks to right the ship in his first post-UFC bout. "Zenko" burst onto the UFC scene with a 56-second choke-out of War Machine, but consecutive losses to Michael Guymon and Anthony Johnson led to his release from the promotion.
For more on Bellator 31, stay tuned to the MMA Rumors section of MMAjunkie.com.

I'm learning all sorts of new things reading Will Storr Versus the Supernatural. From page 273:
'Do you believe in heaven and hell,' I ask [David Vee, the Founder of Ghosts-UK].
'No,' he says, 'people were seeing ghosts BC–Before Christ–so that rules that one out totally. The earth is millions and millions of years old. You know, I think the Bible is a damn good book, but it's nothing like the original translation. How can we translate that when we still have difficulty translating the original Latin, which is only five hundred years old? It's very difficult, because it has so many syllabuses and nouns and whatever. It's like the voices on the EVPs I've recorded here. Most of them are in German Latin, which is what people spoke until the nineteenth century. It wasn't until eighteen-twenty-something that we began to speak English. A lot of people don't appreciate that fact.
I read through that paragraph a couple of times trying to make sense of it but eventually gave up.
