In interview, NH Attorney General Delaney says he's ready to move onBy MARK HAYWARD
New Hampshire Union Leader
March 19. 2013 9:57PM
Michael Delaney announced Tuesday he was not interested in a second term as attorney general, a surprise move that has lawyers pondering his future, one party leader thinking about campaigns, and another partisan speculating what could be behind the 11th-hour announcement.
In an interview with the New Hampshire Union Leader, Delaney said the decision was his own to leave state government after 14 years.
"I've reached the point in my career where returning to the private practice of law is the right thing for me and my family," said Delaney, who earns $116,200 a year as attorney general. Delaney made his announcement with less than two weeks left on his current term.
Delaney said he agreed to Gov. Maggie Hassan's request that he stay on after his term ends March 31 to oversee a transition. He anticipated that will keep him in the office into April.
Speculation quickly rose that Hassan had opted not to reappoint Delaney to a four-year term. Republican Party Chairman Jennifer Horn commended Delaney, a Democrat, for his courage and integrity for opposing Hassan's "fiscally irresponsible casino revenue scheme."
"As Democratic Governor John Lynch demonstrated when he twice reappointed a Republican as attorney general, governors put aside politics and political score-settling when selecting New Hampshire's top law enforcement official," Horn said in a statement. "It is sad and unfortunate that Governor Hassan may have decided to ignore this important tradition."
Delaney insisted that the decision to leave was his. For her part, Hassan issued a statement lauding Delaney for the integrity, strength and resolve he brought to the job and saying she appreciated his counsel.
"She would have been happy if he could have stayed on," said Hassan spokesman, Marc Goldberg.
Term highlights
Delaney said the highlights of his four years as attorney general include the successful prosecution of Stephen Spader and Christopher Gribble in the Mont Vernon home-invasion murder of Kimberly Cates, and the attempted murder verdict against Myles Webster in the 2012 shooting of Manchester police officer Dan Doherty.
Delaney also successfully argued a criminal case before the U.S. Supreme Court that dealt with eyewitness identification. He opposed the merger of Catholic Medical Center in Manchester with the larger Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon.
He said lawsuit settlements in mortgage settlements and MtBE contamination brought more into the state - $163 million in those two cases alone - than during any other attorney general's term.
And Delaney fought back challenges by House Republicans in 2011 to force him to file suit against the Obama health care law. He said the issue was one of independence of his office.
"I think I stood firmly for things that all attorneys general stood for," he said.
Greenland chief shooting
But his term had its challenges. Several homicides remain unsolved, including the 2011 murder of Stewartstown teenager Celina Cass. And in April 2012, Greenland Police Chief Michael Maloney was shot to death and four police officers were wounded in a botched drug raid.
An independent review, commissioned by Delaney, found a lack of leadership, as well as policies and procedures, at the agency in charge of the raid, the Attorney General's Drug Task Force. Rockingham County Attorney Jim Reams has said the ultimate responsibility rests with Delaney, who is head of the agency.
Delaney has acknowledged the raid fell under his responsibility. He has said he placed the agency head, James Norris, on leave after the raid. Norris eventually retired.
Reams has said problems with the Drug Task Force had been festering for years. Delaney has said he instituted changes after the raid, including a requirement that a SWAT team be used when a no-knock search warrant is to be served.
Divided Republicans
Meanwhile, Republicans seem divided on Delaney.
In a news release, Horn praised Delaney for his service and "upholding New Hampshire's tradition of an independent justice department that is free of partisan influence."
But the man who challenged Horn for the GOP party chairman post, Andrew Hemingway, faulted Delaney for not joining 28 states in challenging the Obama health care law in court and for pursuing cases such as price gouging against oil companies.
"From his attempts to go behind the backs of the Legislature to spend money, to his refusal to stand up against the government takeover of health care, Michael Delaney has done well by the liberal base in our state," Hemingway said in a statement.

Setting up CVS for the new bundle

Creating a new project for an Orbit bundle
When adding an entirely new library to Orbit, you have to create a project in CVS to house the content. Follow these steps to set this up the first time.
- In your workspace, create a project with the desired name (see Bundle Naming). For this example we'll use com.example.foo.
- In the project, create a readme.txt file that alerts users to the fact that the real content of the project is maintained in CVS branches. Something like
Work in this project happens in various branches according to the version of the library being maintained. For example, if you are looking for javax.servlet version 2.3, check out the v2_3 branch of the javax.servlet project.
- Share the project into the Orbit repository using the Team > Share Project... wizard. There select CVS then the "dev.eclipse.org/cvsroot/tools" repository. In the following page, choose Use specified module name and enter "org.eclipse.orbit/com.example.foo" (remember to fill-in your bundle name). Finish off the wizard steps.
- Immediately create a new branch of the newly created project following the steps in Creating a new branch.

Creating a new branch of an existing Orbit project
Since all real content in Orbit is maintained in branches, HEAD never contains any real content (just the readme.txt file described above). Follow these steps to create a new branch.
- Check out HEAD of the desired project, or Replace with... HEAD if HEAD of the project is not currently in the workspace.
- Create a new branch using the Team > Branch... wizard. You will be asked to enter a branch name. The typical pattern for that is "v<version number>" where the version number is that which was assigned by the original library producers with the '.' (period) characters replaced with '_' (underscore) characters. So a library whose version is 2.3 would go in the v2_3 branch. Ensure that the "Work with this branch" option is selected and and finish off the wizard.
- Delete the readme.txt file
- Proceed to add the desired content and eventually commit the changes into the branch.
Moving an existing bundle to Orbit
Taking a library that is already bundled in another Eclipse project and adding it to Orbit is quite straightforward.
- Create a new project or new branch of an existing project to hold the bundle's content.
- Check out the existing version of the library into a project using a temporary name. You need to do this if the new and old projects have the same name. Use the Team > Check Out As... wizard from the repository navigator. Pick any name you like for the new project. For example, com.example.foo.old helps keep things clear. This project will only be in your workspace for a few minutes.
- Once the original project is checked out, copy and paste all content from the old project into the project you created at the beginning of these steps and delete the old project. Note that you should use the Resource Navigator to ensure you get all the content.
- Commit the changes to the destination project to create an exact copy of the original bundle project in a branch in the Orbit repository.

Adding a library for the first time
Use this approach when you have a library (i.e., JAR) that you want to convert into a bundle.
- Create a new project or new branch of an existing project to hold the bundle's content.
- Start the New > Project > Plugin Development > Plug-in from existing JAR wizard to effectively import the library into a new project.
- Enter the new bundle name etc.
- Ensure that the Analyze library contents and add dependencies checkbox is selected.
- Ensure that the Unzip the JAR into the project checkbox is selected.
- Click Finish
Adding a library that is already a bundle

Adding source for Orbit bundles
Adding the associated source for orbit bundles makes it easier to use and debug in situations where logic enters third party libraries. Orbit projects should if possible include the source code and add the related project bindings as follows.
- Create a zip file named src.zip at the root of the bundle project containing the java files and other resources useful for debugging.
- Select the project properties and link the src.zip source attachment to your classes on the "Java Build Path" -> "Libraries" tab.
- Open your project's build.properties and switch to the PDE Build tab.
- Select and check src.zip under Source Build and then save your changes.
Project setup
No matter how you created your bundle in Orbit, the following outlines how the project itself should be configured. Remember, it is often simpler to use the Resource Navigator rather than the Project Explorer since you really need to see all the files in your project and you aren't really compiling or building anything.
- In general Orbit projects have the original JAR exploded into the root of the project. This results in a directory structure such as <project root>org/apache/commons/logging/foo.class.
- Using the Project properties > Java Build Path > Source tab remove all source folders. Check the Libraries tab to ensure that that project itself is listed as a library (since the class files are directly in the root of the project)
- In the MANIFEST.MF, ensure that the Bundle-Classpath: header is either missing or has only '.' as a value.
- For most cases there is no need to have Eclipse-Autostart: true or such headers since this library is generic and will not have an OSGi bundle activator.
- Similarly, for most bundles there is no need to set the singleton:=true on the Bundle-SymbolicName header.
- Of course, you should set the Bundle-RequiredExecutionEnvironment header to the absolute minimum JRE required by the library. That can often be difficult to figure out. Look for some tools in PDE to help with this...
- Where possible use Import-Package instead of Require-Bundle. This reduces sensitivity to different bundlings of the same library.
- The Orbit community has agreed that Bundle-Version numbers should be the original library version number followed by .qualifier in the fourth segment. In the event that the original number is already four segments, that version number should be used and then followed by "_qualifier". Note that this versioning scheme differs from the normal Eclipse plug-in Version Numbering if the external library does not follow the Eclipse rules.
Special Detailed Notes on the four segment case
As documented above, in the event that the original package number is already four segments, that version number should be used and then followed by "_qualifier". These leads to a few differences in exactly how the final qualifier is computed and referred to in features and map files. The following example are taken from bug 152588.
For example, for the junit version 4.1.0.01, the manifest.mf file specifies
Bundle-Version: 4.1.0.01_qualifier
But, the feature.xml file specifies
<plugin id="org.junit" download-size="0" install-size="0" version="4.1.0.qualifier" />
And, the (multiversion) map file specifies
The resulting zip file is named as follows (zip, in this case, since it is not a jarred bundle).
And, the resulting bundle version matches the file name, for example,
Bundle-Version: 4.1.0.01_200704231307
Note, the final qualifier in this case does not "match" the cvs version tag, as the usual case, but, is "translated" into current date/time to append to the provided 4th segment prefix.
Packaging licensing information
When packaging a third party library we have to ensure that the licensing information is present and correctly used.
- Create an about_files directory and add a copy of the licensing text.
- Create an about.html file at the root of the third party bundle based on the template here... (eventually).
- Open your project's build.properties and switch to the PDE Build tab.
- Select and check the about_files directory and about.html under both your Binary Build and Source Build and then save your changes.
National Language Considerations
The following are some tips to help make sure any text in the bundle is not "garbled" during network or storage transfers and it is capable of being properly translated to languages other than English.
- As I think is true for all projects in an Eclipse repository, it is recommend you set the project's default encoding preference to ISO-8829-1. This project encoding applies to files that do not otherwise have any ability to specify their encoding (such as ".txt" or ".java" files). This is a good "single byte" encoding in general, and I think the CVS Repository Server assumes ISO-8859-1 as the default. Having it set as a project setting is good, so that, for example, if someone on windows checks it out and makes changes, and someone on Linux checks it out and makes changes, the default encoding for that project will be the same, no matter what the default encodings are on those different OS platforms.
- Be sure to "externalize" all the string in your manifest.mf files, and plugin.xml files, if you have any. There is usually at least two: the Provider (and, yes, even 'Eclipse.org' should be externalized) and the bundle's name.
Remember to retain important aspect of original jar manifest
Part of the goal of creating Orbit bundles, is that when ever possible, the Orbit bundle can continue to be used as a jar, just as it would have been originally.
In some cases, this means there may be aspects in the original jar's manifest that should be carried over to the manifest in the bundle.
One example, if the original jar's manifest contains a Main-Class directive, then the bundle's manifest should contain the same Main-Class directives. One case of this is the Rhino bundle (org.mozilla.javascript). It originally contained
Main-Class: org.mozilla.javascript.tools.shell.Main
which prints the version and starts up an interpreter "shell". It's best to maintain that sort of functionality whenever possible.

About Fabrizio Plessi
Drawn to water for its primordial and mystical associations, Fabrizio Plessi has used it as the central inspiration for his installations, films, performances, and massive sculptures since 1968. An early champion of electronic techniques, the famed multidisciplinary artist is interested in deconstructing the boundaries between the arts and sciences. Plessi was catapulted to international fame following his 1988 sculpture Roma, an installation that combined stone ruins and embedded video screens. Since the 1990s, he has taught extensively and created sets for the theater and opera. His sculptures tend toward the large-scale and the spectacular; they include a monstrous electronic waterfall rendered in a spectrum containing over 16 million colors and a nearly 150-foot simulation of an ocean wave. He has extensively exhibited at international art fairs and in 2011 created the Venice Pavilion at the Venice Biennial in partnership with Louis Vuitton.

Rokita announces second-term staff transitions
Contact: Allison Fore
Indianapolis (September 1, 2007) – Indiana Secretary of State Todd Rokita has named Matt Tusing, former House Republican Deputy Communications Director, as Deputy Secretary of State and Chief of Staff. Rokita also announced staff transitions for Chris Naylor, lead attorney for Rokita's Prosecution Assistance Unit, who will become Indiana Securities Commissioner, and Allison Fore, former Communications Specialist for the Illinois State Treasurer and recent gubernatorial candidate, who will become Communications Director.
Tusing, who currently serves as an Attorney General's Office advisor on matters related to professional licensing and investigations, previously served Indiana as Deputy Communications Director for the Indiana House of Representatives Republican Caucus.
"Matt brings a wealth of knowledge and leadership experience from his work with the Indiana House of Representatives and the Indiana Attorney General," said Rokita. Although Deputy Secretary of State Paul Okeson has done outstanding work on behalf of Hoosier voters and taxpayers, adding Matt as our new Deputy Secretary of State will allow us to build on our successes to date." After serving a standard two year tenure in the Office, Okeson is moving back to the Indiana private sector where he will focus on maintaining and building-up Indiana's infrastructure.
Naylor, as Indiana Securities Commissioner, will lead the Indiana Securities Division, which plays a key role in oversight of the state's securities and mortgage broker industries. As lead attorney for the Prosecution Assistance Unit of the Division, Naylor has worked on a number of high-profile securities fraud and mortgage fraud cases and contributed to the unit's impressive 95 percent conviction rate. Naylor previously served as the Prosecuting Attorney for Jefferson and Switzerland Counties. The current Securities Commissioner, O. Wayne Davis, is finishing his second round of service in the public sector, having served in several capacities with former Secretary of State Ed Simcox in addition to Rokita's administration.
"Wayne's three years in my administration has raised the standard of what we expect from our Securities Division," said Rokita. "And I expect Prosecutor Naylor to use his skills and experience to serve Hoosiers during a time when our biggest personal investments--our homes, retirement plans and portfolios-- are at risk because of a shifting economy and even shiftier predators. He is a dynamic leader, an experienced prosecutor, and unquestionably the right person to drive the Division forward at this time."
Fore, a native of Rokita's Lake County home, Munster, will lead his communications and outreach initiatives and be the principle contact for the media. In her role with the Illinois State Treasurer and gubernatorial nominee, Judy Baar Topinka, she spearheaded statewide initiatives and worked effectively with the statewide press corps on a daily basis. Communications Director Jen Fanger, after serving in various office capacities over a nearly three year period is moving to the nonprofit sector where she will focus on school choice issues.
"I am pleased with Jen's long term service to our office, but now I am even more appreciative that she is taking what she learned here to work on a very important issue that will determine the future success of our state," Rokita said. "I am also looking forward to the deep experience and energy Allison Fore will bring to the table. She has a reputation for working honestly and efficiently with the media, who I believe are my constituents' representatives."
"Secretary Rokita is an energetic leader that truly lives and breathes Indiana whether here at home, or as part of his national roles. His honest passion and desire to build integrity in our elections and economic foundations is addictive," stated Tusing. "I look forward to working with Chris, Allison, and the current staff as we continue to build on Secretary Rokita's first term accomplishments and vision for the future."

Wednesday saw Mark Carney, governor of the Bank of England, give his first speech since joining the BoE on the future of monetary policy. In August the central bank pledged to keep rates low until a predetermined unemployment level of 7% was hit. While BoE officials believe it will take until at least 2016 for this to happen, the markets are speculating on a rise in rates much sooner than that. In his speech Carney stressed that the Monetary Policy Committee will not allow rising rates to threaten growth in the economy and will be ready to provide stimulus if this should happen. While Carney did not specifically say what these stimulus measures would look like, they would most likely be outright asset purchases or an even deeper cut of interest rates.
British pound futures (CME:B6Z13) reacted to Carney's speech by ending the day lower, and continuing to sell off. While Carney's speech may not have included the guidance the market was looking for, it did make it very clear that Carney and the BoE will not risk derailing an already fragile recovery in their economy. This means that rates will stay low for the foreseeable future and that further easing is definitely a possibility in the U.K.
So how can a trader take advantage of possible downside in the British pound?
- Trading the spot pair. This is the most direct way to take a speculative view on the pound, but can be capital intensive and would require a trader to take on a lot of risk when taking a medium- to long-term view.
- Trade the ETF. The CurrencyShares British Pound Sterling Trust (FXB) tracks the price of the pound very well, but is the most capital intensive way to trade the pound. The risk required to take a long-term trade is also high.
- British pound futures and options on futures. Provides leverage while still allowing a trader to set up a well-defined risk vs. reward setup.
With the November at-the-money straddle in October implying a move of 0.045 by expiration we can set up a trade at defined targets. We can calculate a downside target of 1.505 and use this target to center a trade.
Trade: Buying the Oct 1.52-1.50 Put Spread for 0.0045
Risk: $281.25
Reward: $968.75
Breakeven: 1.5155

Buck the system and circumvent the Glass Ceiling and the Ol' Boys Network…without asking permission. Learn the ABCs of networking from the woman who personifies networking! Become the networker you were born to be and be fearless doing it.
Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) May 22, 2009 — Let's face it, it's all in WHO you know, but also the ACTION you take. The book Go Ahead, Talk to Strangers- The Modern Girl's Guide to Fearless Networking is a guide for women to elevate their networking game and be fearless about it. Networking is a team sport; and if you don't get in the game, you'll come up short on your career aspirations. Now you can learn how to network fearlessly at the in-demand live Fearless Networking Webinar on June 6th and June 9th.
Written by much sought after Recruitment Consultant and Networking Strategist Adrienne Graham, Go Ahead, Talk to Strangers is a practical guide that gives readers key tips and personal networking experiences designed to show that all women can become fearless networkers. Women find it difficult to make time to network because they don't make the time to fit it in their hectic schedules, or they fear that it won't benefit them. Most don't know how to network effectively, so they feel it doesn't work for them. But with the economy in shambles and jobs (and companies) being obliterated daily, networking allows people to build key relationships they can tap into in a pinch. "People are more willing to help people they know and have a relationship with," says Graham. "This book inspires women to actively build relationships and take 'who they know' and turn it into a competitive advantage. The webinar allows them to immediately put what they learn to work for them".

GARY Waddock wants his Oxford United side to play an entertaining brand of football as a new era at the club begins tonight.
The former Wycombe Wanderers boss leads the U's for the first time away to Southend United, just over 48 hours after signing a two-and-a-quarter year contract.
It means a hectic start for the permanent successor to Chris Wilder, who only met the players before training yesterday morning.
Waddock has clear ideas about the style he wants to encourage, but will not look to make radical changes straight away.
He said: "I want the supporters to be excited. I want my team to be entertaining and play on the front foot with a good tempo.
"That's not going to happen overnight and we will introduce that as we go along.
"Something is being done right here to be in the position they are in, so I'm not going to smash it to pieces, that would be foolish of me.
"It will be slow, but teams I've had in the past have been ones that have entertained."
The appointment was made after a lengthy recruitment search by the club, which took eight weeks.
It was a far simpler process for Waddock, who joins after a spell as head of coaching at MK Dons, as United proved an attractive proposition.
He said: "I've been here on the opposite side when I've come up against Oxford in the past.
"The facilities are excellent, the noise the supporters generate is fantastic and it's a good group of players.
"They have got this club into a position to challenge for promotion, so when you throw all that into the mix, it's a fantastic opportunity for me."
Scott Davies is the only player in the squad who has worked under him before and the new man made it clear everyone has to prove themselves.
He said: "The players will have to impress me.
"It's a clean slate as such. They start again and we've got a very exciting period coming up in the next few weeks, so they will have to impress."
Waddock's immediate aim is to convert a good position into promotion out of Sky Bet League Two, as he did with Wycombe three years ago.
But there is also a focus beyond the next eight games and the former Republic of Ireland international is keen to emulate the lengthy tenure of Wilder, who was at the club for more than five years.
He said: "I want to build something here.
"I've had long discussions with the chairman and he wants someone to be here for a long period of time.
"It's not a quick-fix. It's for a period of time and that's what I want to do."

Chicago Fire manager Frank Klopas has a major decision to make.
Goalkeeper Paolo Tornaghi has now started three matches in the absence of incumbent starter Sean Johnson, who was away on Olympic qualifying duty, and the 23-year-old Italian capped his string of performances with the Save of the Week award for Week 4.
The fans recognized the effort by Tornaghi in the 67th minute of Sunday's match against the Colorado Rapids. The former Italian youth national team 'keeper used every inch of his oustretched frame to deflect a searing shot by Rapids midfielder Martín Rivero that was destined to finish inside the right post.
Tornaghi edged out Toronto's Milos Kocic for the weekly honors and San Jose's Jon Busch finished third with a strong show of votes. LA's Josh Saunders and FC Dallas shot-stopper Kevin Hartman round out the top five.
Now the only question is who Klopas will pick to start against Houston on April 15: Tornaghi or Johnson?
Week 4 Voting Results
1. Paolo Tornaghi (CHI) – 30.06%
2. Milos Kocic (TOR) – 25.68%
3. Jon Busch (SJ) - 20.81%
4. Josh Saunders (LA) - 18.33%
5. Kevin Hartman (DAL) – 5.12%

Senate kills wind-farm moratoriumBy GARRY RAYNO
State House Bureau
March 28. 2013 3:03PM
CONCORD - The Senate Thursday refused to back a one-year moratorium pushed by opponents of the Northern Pass transmission project and numerous wind farm projects.
Instead the Senate voted 23-1 to establish two study committees to review the state Site Evaluation Committee's ability and capacity to do its job and the criteria for siting wind farms, new electric generation and transmission facilities.
Senate Bill 99 would have imposed a one-year moratorium on projects needing SEC approval, but was changed by the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee to apply only to wind farms.
The change angered opponents of the Northern Pass transmission project to bring Hydro Quebec electricity to New England through New Hampshire, who said they were blindsided by the committee last week.

Eight years is an insult
Eight years for a son's 16th birthday party where beer was served is way too severe a sentence. [February 20 cover story: "Eight years: for a 'minor' offense?"] (http://www.readthehook.com/93079/cover-story-eight-years-minor-offense).
It's unfair to multiply the normal sentence (a mere 90 days) on the grounds that a teenager, the late Brittany Bishop– who had dated the son and who'd died due to a drunk driver– "wasn't even cold in the ground" at the time of the birthday party.
The unfairness is grotesque when one considers that the parents required those who drank at the party to sleep over and that, among the 10 minors who tested positive for alcohol, the highest blood alcohol count was a mere .03.
Obviously the judge wanted to "send a message" that it's wrong to give alcohol to teens. But a draconian sentence is the wrong message. I'm persuaded the judge subscribes to the conventional wisdom that sentences should be set not just according to what offenders deserve (i.e., to what alone fits the crime) but also according to what might "scare straight" other actual or potential offenders.
Several problems with that conventional wisdom: 1) It's hard enough to fit the punishment to the crime. Speculation about deterrent effects is at best a distraction. 2) The best deterrence is a system that's truly just. Over punishment is a tyranny (if not a crime) perpetrated upon a perp. Such tyranny undermines moral authority in general, fomenting adolescent and post-adolescent "rebellion." 3) Just as a crime has rippling repercussions, so does an act of tyranny: Incarceration, in particular, is a cause of divorce. The parent-defendants in this case, George and Lisa Robinson, have already separated.
Jesus said: "Whatever you wish that men would do to you, do so to them, for that is the law and the prophets." If we want justice done to ourselves, we must apply the Golden Rule to criminal sentencing. To determine what punishment is deserved, we must try to put ourselves in the shoes of the offender.
Which leads me to points four and five: To over-punish offenders in order to "scare straight" others violates the basic human dignity of both offenders and those to be intimidated. It treats them all as mere manipulable means to an end–- indeed, as moral morons, conscience-less calculators of risks and rewards. And that attitude undermines the basic self-esteem we all need in order to be law abiding. It undermines community cohesion as well, for people (including crime victims!) often don't want to inform the police or bear witness in court, when "doing the right thing" is doing the draconian thing–- and then, ironically, the guilty often get away unpunished.

Syrian army takes 2 villages near Lebanon
Damascus – Syrian government forces captured two villages near the border with Lebanon on Saturday, continuing a weeks-long advance that has cut a major supply route for weapons and fighters into the country from eastern Lebanon, said activists and state TV.
The villages of Flita and Ras Maara were the latest targets of a government offensive in the rugged Qalamoun border region after troops captured the town of Yabroud earlier this month. Tens of thousands of Syrians fled into Lebanon since the Qalamoun offensive began in November.
Flita, about 5 miles from the border with Lebanon, had been a major crossing point for rebels coming into Syria to fight President Bashar Assad's forces.
It is part of the Qalamoun region, which holds strategic value for the government. It is situated along the main north-south highway that links the capital to government strongholds along the Mediterranean coast.
State TV said the villages fell after government forces "wiped out the last remnants of armed terrorist groups and destroyed its weapons and tools they used in their crimes." The Syrian government refers to rebels as "terrorists."
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also confirmed Syrian forces backed by fighters of the Shiite Lebanese group Hezbollah seized the villages.
Lebanon's Iranian-backed Hezbollah openly began waging war alongside Assad's forces last year, allowing Syrian forces to regain swaths of territory lost to armed rebels since the uprising began three years ago.
Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah said his fighters would remain in Syria for now.
Speaking at a cultural event in south Lebanon, on a large projected screen that broadcast his live speech from a secret location, the black-turbaned cleric said Hezbollah fighters in Lebanon were defending Syria and their own country from the scourge of extremist Sunni groups.
"We have taken on this burden and are continuing with it," Nasrallah said.
Lebanon's state-run National News Agency said about 700 Syrians fled the fighting to the Lebanese border town of Arsal. Lebanese soldiers were checking people's identity cards to make sure no fighters were among them, it said.
As Syrian forces seized the two villages, Syrian warplanes carried out an air raid on the hilly outskirts of Arsal. Deputy mayor Ahmad Fliti said there were no casualties.
An activist in a nearby area known as eastern Ghouta who uses the name of Abu Yazan al-Shami said rebels were still fighting inside the two villages. He said rebels expected Assad-loyal forces to try seize the town of Rankous next, allowing the government "to completely cut supplies from Lebanon into Qalamoun."
The Syrian Observatory said by Saturday evening, government forces were attacking the outskirts of Rankous.
In the coastal province of Latakia, the Observatory reported that government warplanes pounded areas where Syrian soldiers were clashing with rebels who, in a surprise move last week, seized a toehold of coastal territory in Assad's ancestral heartland province of Latakia.
The rebels, from several groups including the al-Qaida-affiliated Nusra Front, seized a border crossing with Turkey, two observatory posts and -- for the first time in the 3-year-old conflict -- a tiny stretch of coast giving them an outlet to the Mediterranean Sea.
The rebels also seized the ancient Christian Armenian village of Kassab, causing most of the 2,000 residents to flee in fear of their lives.
Latakia, a mountainous and wooded region, is the heartland of Assad's Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam that is a minority in Syria but is a major pillar of Assad's rule. Sunni Muslims dominate the rebel ranks fighting to oust Assad.
Syria's uprising, which began with largely peace protests in March 2011, has evolved into a civil war with sectarian overtones that has left more than 140,000 people dead.

40 Years of study Disproves Ghosts
Posted 24 October 2010 - 08:45 PM
We already know that the amount of the human brain power being used is in low percentages - nowhere near maximum power. What is the figure? Something like 10% - 15% when we are awake?
Isn't it possible that at times, we can utilize more of our brain power, and experience these phenomenon? Something uncommon (not unnatural or non-existent)?
With this in mind, it just doesn't make sense when skeptics like this say, "It's all in your head." and then follow it up by saying, "So it doesn't exist."

Hi Apport,
Not to take away from your larger point, but I wanted to address this part specifically. This is a myth. We use pretty much all of our brain.
Don't feel bad, this is a very widespread myth. I used to believe it myself.
Regards, Canis

Hey canister not to doubt you but where is the proof that we use most of our brains? Everything I ever saw or read about says differently. Would be interesting reading if you can find it and post a link please.
I don't know what sources you been reading.
Think about what you've just said. Does it make sense that 90% of that brain tissue is there for no reason. Or does it make more sense that this other supposedly unused brain matter does function. Here's some info on the 'We only use 10% of our brain' myth
The Ten-Percent Myth
Claim: We use only ten percent of our brains.
Status: False.
Origins: Someone has taken most of your brain away and you probably didn't even know it. Well, not taken your brain away, exactly, but decided that you don't use it. It's the old myth heard time and again about how people use only ten percent of their brains. While for the people who repeat that myth, it's probably true, the rest of us happily use all of our brains.
The Myth and the Media
That tired Ten-Percent claim pops up all the time. In 1998, national magazine ads for U.S. Satellite Broadcasting showed a drawing of a brain. Under it was the caption, "You only use 11 percent of its potential." Well, they're a little closer than the ten-percent figure, but still off by about 89 percent. In July 1998, ABC television ran promotional spots for The Secret Lives of Men, one of their offerings for the fall season's lineup. The spot featured a full-screen blurb that read, "Men only use ten percent of their brains."
One reason this myth has endured is that it has been adopted by psychics and other paranormal pushers to explain psychic powers. On more than one occasion I've heard psychics tell their audiences, "We only use ten percent of our minds. If scientists don't know what we do with the other
ninety percent, it must be used for psychic powers!" In Reason To Believe: A Practical Guide to Psychic Phenomena, author Michael Clark mentions a man named Craig Karges. Karges charges a lot of money for his "Intuitive Edge" program, designed to develop natural psychic abilities. Clark quotes Karges as saying: "We normally use only 10 to 20 percent of our minds. Think how different your life would be if you could utilize that other 80 to 90 percent known as the subconscious mind."
This was also the reason that Caroline Myss gave for her alleged intuitive powers on a segment of Eye to Eye with Bryant Gumbel, which aired in July of 1998. Myss, who has written books on unleashing "intuitive powers," said that everyone has intuitive gifts, and lamented that we use so little of the mind's potential. To make matters worse, just the week before, on the very same program, correct information was presented about the myth. In a bumper spot between the program and commercials, a quick quiz flashed onscreen: What percentage of the brain is used? The multiple-choice answers ranged from 10 percent to 100 percent. The correct answer appeared, which I was glad to see. But if the producers knew that what one of their interviewees said is clearly and demonstrably inaccurate, why did they let it air? Does the right brain not know what the left brain is doing? Perhaps the Myss interview was a repeat, in which case the producers presumably checked her facts after it aired and felt some responsibility to correct the error in the following week's broadcast. Or possibly the broadcasts aired in sequence and the producers simply did not care and broadcast Myss and her misinformation anyway.
Even Uri Geller, who has made a career out of trying to convince people he can bend metal with his mind, trots out this little gem. This claim appears in his book Uri Geller's Mind-Power Book in the introduction: "Our minds are capable of remarkable, incredible feats, yet we don't use them to their full capacity. In fact, most of us only use about 10 per cent of our brains, if that. The other 90 per cent is full of untapped potential and undiscovered abilities, which means our minds are only operating in a very limited way instead of at full stretch. I believe that we once had full power over our minds. We had to, in order to survive, but as our world has become more sophisticated and complex we have forgotten many of the abilities we once had" (italicized phrases emphasized in original).
Evidence Against the Ten-Percent Myth
The argument that psychic powers come from the unused majority of the brain is based on the logical fallacy of the argument from ignorance. In this fallacy, lack of proof for a position (or simply lack of information) is used to try to support a particular claim. Even if it were true that the vast majority of the human mind is unused (which it clearly is not), that fact in no way implies that any extra capacity could somehow give people paranormal powers. This fallacy pops up all the time in paranormal claims, and is especially prevalent among UFO proponents. For example: Two people see a strange light in the sky. The first, a UFO believer, says, "See there! Can you explain that?" The skeptic replies that no, he can't. The UFO believer is gleeful. "Ha! You don't know what it is, so it must be aliens!" he says, arguing from ignorance.
What follows are two of the reasons that the Ten-Percent story is suspect. (For a much more thorough and detailed analysis of the subject, see Barry Beyerstein's chapter in the 1999 book Mind Myths: Exploring Everyday Mysteries of the Mind.)
1) Brain imaging research techniques such as PET scans (positron emission tomography) and fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) clearly show that the vast majority of the brain does not lie fallow. Indeed, although certain minor functions may use only a small part of the brain at one time, any sufficiently complex set of activities or thought patterns will indeed use many parts of the brain. Just as people don't use all of their muscle groups at one time, they also don't use all of their brain at once. For any given activity, such as eating, watching television, making love, or reading, you may use a few specific parts of your brain. Over the course of a whole day, however, just about all of the brain is used at one time or another.
2) The myth presupposes an extreme localization of functions in the brain. If the "used" or "necessary" parts of the brain were scattered all around the organ, that would imply that much of the brain is in fact necessary. But the myth implies that the "used" part of the brain is a discrete area, and the "unused" part is like an appendix or tonsil, taking up space but essentially unnecessary. But if all those parts of the brain are unused, removal or damage to the "unused" part of the brain should be minor or unnoticed. Yet people who have suffered head trauma, a stroke, or other brain injury are frequently severely impaired. Have you ever heard a doctor say, ". . . But luckily when that bullet entered his skull, it only damaged the 90 percent of his brain he didn't use"? Of course not.

Thank you "oh really" its was how I was taught when younger and I've heard of people having brain surgery and having large amounts removed with no loss of any physical or mental abilities. Thank you for posting and changing my views. And canis sorry for the spelling that's what my phone put in.
No Prob, I figured it was some sort of affectionate nick-name you created for me. Oh well.
I was serious before. I was taught this as well and really believed the 10% myth into my thirties. I was pretty disgusted when I found out the truth.
My understanding is that when a person's brain is damaged, it is able to create new pathways to a certain exent and maintain normal functions. I am not sure how far that can go. I don't really know much about brains (ask my wife) but I guess it would have a lot to do with the nature of the damage & what parts are removed.
I would also like to thank Mr. Really for taking up my slack by supplying the link here.

Still, even if we're using 90% of our brains, heck, 100% of our brain power, isn't it still possible for this complex organic computer to structure it's abilities to sense these uncommon phenomenon?
I recall an AI experiment where 5 computer processors were hooked up, and programmed to make itself more efficient. In the end, 4 processors were running, and the AI was functioning better than with 5 processors! Why can't an organic computer, full of electrical impulses, do the same?
Why is it that small children tend to experience these phenomenon more than adults, and as they grow older lose this '6th sense'? Someone mentioned rerouting brain pathways in a response earlier - I agree. We are told, "Ghosts don't exist, Johnny. Go back to bed." Have that reinforced over and over again, and your brain may very well adjust itself to NOT experience the phenomenon. This is true for all early childhood development - we are a product of the environment we grow up in.
I wouldn't be surprised if we block some of it out ourselves as children, and force our brains to 'ignore' what we are experiencing. You can read case after case of people who have stored away deep dark ugly childhood memories to the point where they cannot even recall what has happened in their childhood because the experience was so bad.
A perfect example of what I am discussing above would be Mantras. We can literally program our brains to do things they would not normally do. When one wants to do deep dream studies they will often repeat mantras before sleep to command their brain to allow conscious access to the night's dreams. I've done this myself - it was exhausting. Sleep had become so vivid that I barely felt as if I had slept. I stopped the experiments even though they were productive.
In a nutshell, even if we are using all of our brain power all the time, this is an organic, electrically charged, ever changing bodily organ capable of more than science is fully aware of at this point in time. If we knew exactly what the human brain was capable of, there would be no need for brain research! There would probably be a book out called something like, "The Human Brain: The Complete User's Manual"
Good discussion, people

To build on APPORT's processor concept, consider the brain as a type of parallel processor. Each cell may be considered a simple processor, the links between them memory. Now consider that only certain cells are linked. The number of these links may represent the capacity for total processing. But unlike the CPU based processor in a computer, these cells can be linked as needed directly, no common bus. (The bus is actually what limits the amount of data that can be transfered in a computer, not the processor itself.)
Since no common bus exists in a perfect parallel processor, simply ading one new pathway doubles the number of unique items that can be stored. Thus the brain as a parallel processor can increase its capacity by simply adding one new link. And in theory, if all possible links could be utilized, each new link link would double the previous capacity, i.e. 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, etc. It is clear that the potential increases exponentially, thus the capacity is incredible. Of course it is also likely not every link can be utilized, but as we learn, certain ones can be added.
In this manner it can be shown that all cells are used, but since only certain links are utilized, the total usage remains at a low level of the absolute potential. It could also help explain how at times a part of the brain can be damaged and all is not lost. Perhaps a redundent link somewhere else can take over in event another is damaged, as well as learning permitting new links to be formed as one is rehabilitated from an injury.

I don't remember the name of the condition, hydro encephalitic cyst???? maybe, but it is characterised by the fact that their "brain" is similar to an egg, sitting on top of their brain stem. Ie: the functional part is a shell about one eighth of an inch thick, and filled with fluid.
All indications are that these people are perfectly "normal" in both intellectual and physical function. Their condition was discovered purely by accident when they underwent medical examination for something completely unrelated.
So given that these people are indistinguishable from "normal" people while having so little brain mass, one can only wonder what the total mass of the brain the rest of us have is really for.

Thank you "oh really" its was how I was taught when younger and I've heard of people having brain surgery and having large amounts removed with no loss of any physical or mental abilities. Thank you for posting and changing my views. And canis sorry for the spelling that's what my phone put in.
You are welcomed.

Police: Man committed suicide at Newton-John home
JUPITER, Fla. — Police in South Florida have identified a contractor who apparently killed himself inside a home owned by singer Olivia Newton-John and her husband.
Jupiter police say an autopsy found that 41-year-old Christopher Pariseleti died Monday of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
According to authorities, construction was being done on the home, located in Jupiter Inlet Colony in northern Palm Beach County.
No other details were released.
Newton-John's hits include "You're The One That I Want," with John Travolta from the 1978 film "Grease."

Canada-US transboundary notifications
Under the 1991 Canada-United States Air Quality Agreement, Canada and the U.S. committed to notify each other concerning proposals that could cause significant transboundary air pollution. The Parties have been notifying each other of sources of pollution within 100 kilometres (km) or 62 miles of the border since 1994.
This notification application form provides the information to fulfil Canada's obligation under Article V of the Canada/U.S. Air Quality Agreement.
The form needs to be completed for any new air pollution source located within 100 km of the Canada/U.S. border that is expected to emit greater than 90 tonnes per year of any one of the common air pollutants: sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), total suspended particulates (TSP) and volatile organic compounds (VOC), where VOCs are defined as compounds containing at least one carbon atom, excluding carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane and chlorofluorocarbons.
Notification is also required for major modifications of existing facilities which would result in an increase of 40 or more tonnes per year of one or more common pollutants. With respect to hazardous air pollutants, Notification is required if a new source, or a modification of an existing source, results in a release of greater than 1 tonne per year of any one hazardous air pollutant.
For the purposes of Notification, a hazardous air pollutant is any substance in the National Pollutant Release Inventory that is not categorized as a criteria air contaminant (or common air pollutant) . If the proposed facility does not meet the Notification criteria, there is no requirement to complete and return the form to Environment Canada.

Growing WMD Titan Tuesday 06/07/2010, 03:33
Bad dt deck, take out vickie cr, jackie , and zatman
you loss points for just having them in your hand. up to 6 points if you have all 3. this could have work well before they put in the new rule.
Use Dorian oxen and avola. there not as great but you dont loss points and but there still good.
DR are ok in dt. DT are all about speed have too many dr will slow you down. the only one that could help is spiaghi instead of filomina

Should You Match Your Wedding's Bridesmaids and Ushers According to Their Height?
One bride takes the "perfect wedding" thing too far when it comes to choosing her attendants
(page 1 of 2)
One of the most common stressors when planning a wedding is overanalyization. When a bride chooses her attendants, for example, she should do so because those people are special to her and she wants them to participate in her big day — she shouldn't think too much into it beyond that. If she chooses attendants using any other criteria — like, say, because they're the "perfect" height for each other — she misses the point completely!
A Hudson Valley bride asks: "I want my wedding to be perfect. When I asked my mother what she thought about my question for you, she laughed at me and said, 'That should be your biggest problem.' So I'm turning to you: Does the number of bridesmaids and groomsmen need to be the same? Should they be 'matched' in height?"

The Male Pill?
LONDON: Injections of the hormone testosterone could be an effective male contraceptive, according to a report issued Tuesday by the World Health Organization. Nine countries participated in a study of 399 men, aged 21 to 45, which showed that weekly injections of the hormone effectively prevented conception by decreasing sperm counts. Administered over two and a half years, the injections proved to be effective means of contraception for 98.6 percent of the couples involved, with only four pregnancies reported. "It would show that testosterone, like estrogen in a female, can be an additional method of reproduction control," said Richard Sherins, the director of andrology at the Genetics and IVF Institute in Fairfax, Virgina. "Testosterone may be a new way of looking at birth control," says TIME's Alice Park. "If it is true, it would be an exciting flipside as contraception is usually focused on the woman." But, she adds, two and one half years is not enough time to understand how hormone injections may effect a man's systems in the long term, or if they may lead to more prostate and testicular cancers. Researchers say it will be several years before the hormone contraceptive would become widely available.

RADCLIFF, Ky. (AP) — Quinton Higgins lost his best friend when the church bus he was riding in 25 years ago was turned into a fireball by a drunken driver on a Kentucky road, in what remains the nation's deadliest alcohol-related highway crash.
In the town that still grieves for the 27 who perished, people gathered Tuesday evening to remember the victims and honor the perseverance of the 40 who made it out of the burning bus alive.
"We all still hurt and there's still a lot of pain that goes around," Higgins said. "But as I talk to other survivors, you have to look at it this way — through our tragedy, this is going to save lives."
The memorial service came on the 25th anniversary of the crash — a tragedy that is still evoked in discussions about the nation's policy on drunken driving. This week, the National Transportation Safety Board recommended that states lower the legal limit for drunken driving from .08 percent to .05 percent, matching a level that has reduced highway deaths in other countries.
NTSB spokesman Peter Knudsen said the agency was "well aware" of the Kentucky bus crash anniversary and officials "wanted to get our report before the board prior to that date." Board Chairman Deborah Hersman opened the meeting Tuesday in Washington by noting the devastation caused by that crash, which is also the subject of a new documentary.
Hours later, Higgins was part of a hushed crowd that heard the names of the victims and survivors read aloud in a Kentucky high school gym by a trio that included Jan Withers, national president of Mothers Against Drunk Driving.
"Tragedy broke our hearts but not our spirits," Martha Tennison said.
At the time of the crash, she and her husband were co-pastors of the Radcliff church that owned the bus.
The hour-long service took place in Radcliff, where the group's ill-fated outing to an Ohio amusement park began on the morning of May 14, 1988. Tennison recalled her husband saying that when the bus pulled away, a young person was waving from every window.
By late that night, 24 of the children and three adults were dead.
Before the service, Higgins said he wanted to see more than tributes to his best friend, Anthony Marks, and the others who died. He wants tougher laws against drunken driving.
Higgins, who was 15 when the crash occurred, now drives a school bus and teaches bus safety. He thinks the tougher standard would make the roads safer.
"I wish we'd go to zero tolerance," he said in an interview. "The lower it is, the more people will think before they actually take that drink."
NTSB officials said it wasn't their intention to prevent drivers from having a glass of wine with dinner, but they acknowledged that under a threshold as low as .05 percent, the safest thing for people who have only one or two drinks would be not to drive at all.
A drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 4 ounces of wine, or 1 ounce of 80-proof alcohol in most studies.
A study by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has estimated that 7,082 deaths would have been prevented in 2010 had all drivers on the road had a blood alcohol level below .08 percent.
Higgins said the tougher laws would be a fitting tribute to the Kentucky crash victims who had their lives cut short by someone so intoxicated that he was driving in the wrong direction when his pickup slammed into the bus on a stretch of Interstate 71 near Carrollton, Ky., between Louisville and Cincinnati.
The tragedy also led to major improvements in school bus safety.
The church bus was on its way home when it was struck. The pickup was being driven by Larry Mahoney, a chemical plant worker. His blood alcohol level was 0.24 percent, more than twice what was then the legal definition of drunken driving.
At the memorial, Karolyn Nunnallee said that for those who lost loved ones and friends in the crash, the "void still remains."
Nunnallee's 10-year-old daughter Patty was the youngest of those killed in the crash.
Nunnallee turned her grief into activism in the fight against drunken driving. She said that despite the tougher DUI laws that were enacted after the Kentucky crash, nearly 10,000 people die on U.S. roads each year due to drunken driving, which she called a "100 percent preventable crime."
"It is really inconceivable to me that this continues to happen," said Nunnallee, a former national president of MADD.
A tearful Carey Aurentz Cummins said she survived the "unimaginable tragedy and every day I've lived with the joy and the guilt associated with that fact."
Like many other survivors, she married, had a child and built a career.
"On the other hand, I know that 27 beautiful souls didn't make it off the bus that night," she said. "They were our fathers, our mothers, our sisters, our brothers, our friends, and we miss them every day."
The survivors, mostly teenagers when the crash occurred, have gone on to jobs as teachers, coaches, sales representatives and nurses, she said. They have more than 40 children among them.
But she said that "all of us have struggled along the way."
The memorial was part of two days of events to mark the anniversary of the tragedy. On Wednesday night, a public screening is set in nearby Elizabethtown for a new documentary recounting the tragedy, "IMPACT: After the Crash." Survivors were given a private screening Tuesday night.
Mahoney, the pickup truck driver, survived with broken ribs, cuts and bruises. The state charged him with murder but a jury convicted him of assault, manslaughter and wanton endangerment. He was given a 16-year sentence but spent less than 10 years in prison — the rest was deducted for good behavior.
Mahoney, who was released from prison in 1999, has shied away from talking to the media. In an interview in late 1991, he said he was haunted by what he did, though he had no memory of it.
He was not mentioned by name at the memorial, but he was not forgotten.
Said Tennison, "We're here today because one man made a bad choice."
Lowy reported from Washington. Associated Press Writer Brett Barrouquere in Louisville, Ky., also contributed to this report.

Federal government to push provinces to keep marijuana taxation rates low: Report
If provincial governments thought taxing legalized marijuana would be a cash cow, the Trudeau government is reportedly aiming to leave them high and dry.
According to a source who spoke with the CBC, Finance Minister Bill Morneau will be pressuring his provincial counterparts to keep the taxation levels of pot low to ensure prices will undercut the illegal drug trade.
Morneau will be making the government's pitch to provinces during meetings in Ottawa over the next two days.
Governments have traditionally used so-called sin taxes on alcohol and cigarettes as a significant revenue source and a tool to curb consumption of potentially harmful substances.
Is this proposed policy a half-baked double standard?
Earlier this year, the Trudeau government increased the excise tax on cigarettes to $21.56 per carton. Provincial governments also charge their own tax at varying rates.
For example, Ontario announced an increase in their tobacco tax in April to $32.95 per carton. According to a recent study by the National Coalition Against Contraband Tobacco, roughly a third of cigarettes sold in Ontario are illegal.
Prime Minister Trudeau famously announced his plan to "tax and regulate" marijuana on the campaign trail. And while government revenue has been used in the past as an argument for legalization, if taxes on the drug are kept low, how will governments offset the costs of legalization?
A provincial source also speaking with the CBC reportedly addressed their concerns regarding the potential cost of policing and roadside marijuana detection.
Legalized pot may also put strains on provincial healthcare coffers.
The Canadian Medical Association Journal published an article in May raising concerns about the implications of the Liberal policy, saying that it is "starkly at odds" with the government's commitment to protect the health and safety of Canadians.
The article adds that the plan doesn't do enough to protect kids and could have serious mental health and dependency repercussions.
The Trudeau government has promised that legislation to legalize marijuana in Canada will come into effect by July 1, 2018.
