Four Photographs (Albumen Prints, Photomicrographs) of Experiments Relating to the Structure of Lepidoptera Scales, by R. L. Maddox, 1871
|Inventory Number:
| 12101
|Object Type:
Richard Leach Maddox (Photographer)
|Date Created:
|Accession Number:
|Brief Description:
|Stiff paper with four small albumen prints and a pencil drawing mounted on it, figures 27-31 in a series of microscopical drawings (this is the only sheet with photographs); with tissue protector. The photographs show images giving the effect of beads, produced by artificial means. The photographer initials and dates the sheet, and gives full captions on the back. The series illustrates Maddox's paper "Remarks on the General and Particular Construction of the Scales of some of the Lepidoptera, as bearing on the Structure of the "Test Scale" of Lepidocyrtus curvicollis", given to the RMS on May 3, 1871, and subsequently published in The Monthly Microscopical Journal, volume 5, 1871, pp.247-266 and 3 plates. Figures 27-32 were not however published, though the captions were, an editorial note reading: 'The remaining figures refer to some exquisite photographs and figures which have been placed by Dr. Maddox in the Society's Collection.'. The taking of the photographs is described pp.265-6.
Richard Leach Maddox (1816-1902), a physician and microscopist, is celebrated in the annals of photography as the inventor of gelatine dry plate negatives, which he first proposed in the same year, 1871, though these photographs were taken on collodion plates. The difficulty he had with the wet collodion process, described in his article, was what inspired his invention. See also 12100.
|Primary Inscriptions:
|Signed on mount: 'RLM photo | et del 1871.'; other inscriptions, including captions on back of mount, signed 'RLM.-'.

PARIS (Reuters) – After hundreds of police raids on homes, mosques, restaurants and hotels in the less than five weeks since the Nov. 13 assaults in Paris, some Muslims in France are taking the government to court for committing what they call illegal acts in the name of preventing another jihadist attack.
At least 20 complaints have been filed since a state of emergency was declared after the Islamic State attacks that killed 130 people, according to the six independent lawyers involved.
The emergency measures give authorities extra powers to assign house arrests and conduct raids without a judicial warrant. Though they are set to expire on Feb. 26, the government has said they may be extended.
Polls indicate that the measures have overwhelming support from a public still shocked by the scale of the Paris violence, and government ministers have defended them as key to protecting public order and society in general.
But as governments around the world try to balance civil rights and privacy with the need for heightened security, the emergency law, which dates back to 1955, is coming under scrutiny.
On Dec. 11, France's highest administrative court asked the Constitutional Court to examine the constitutionality of the law, notably for its restrictions on freedom of movement, after a challenge by an activist who was placed under house arrest ahead of the recent global climate conference in Paris.
And on Thursday, 100 organizations, including France's Human Rights League and a magistrates' trade union, demanded that the government lift the state of emergency on the grounds it is leading to excesses without responding to the threat.
The legal challenges that have been launched so far were themselves made possible by French lawmakers who revised the law when they voted to extend the state of emergency on Nov. 20.
The revision allows for judicial oversight, but only after the raids have been carried out, said Olivier Renaudie, a University of Lorraine professor and specialist in domestic security laws.
Still, "it's progress. The law extends the power of police but also judicial guarantees," he said.
Most of the complaints allege that the government acted illegally in placing people under house arrest for unjustified reasons or based on misinformation, and seek a suspension or reversal of the arrest orders.
More complaints are being prepared related to property damage during raids and for emotional distress, the lawyers working on them said.
In the six cases that have been heard so far, judges have rejected the claims, the lawyers said.
As of Wednesday, authorities have conducted more than 2,700 raids and enforced 360 house arrests, according to the French government. Already 51 people have been incarcerated, primarily related to illegal weapons or drugs.
In addition, two terrorism-related investigations have been opened as a result of the raids, a judicial source told Reuters.
The house arrests have led to the bulk of the civil complaints. Under the law, which allows the Interior Ministry to target anyone it believes poses a threat to public security, people under house arrest must remain in their homes at night and otherwise stay within a specified area, reporting to police three times a day. Some may have to wear electronic bracelets.
Paris lawyer Xavier Nogueras is representing 12 Muslims under house arrest. He and the other lawyers say their clients were unfairly targeted based on secret intelligence and unproven suspicions.
On Nov. 27, an administrative court in Paris said the government had not committed any "obvious legal breach" in the house arrests of two of his clients.
The government has reversed itself in a handful of cases, according to French media.

Thought Provoking
The story of Edith Hahn Beer is just one of thousands of stories of survival that came out of the holocaust. Each story is one of courage, intelligence and luck. Edith's story is no exception. She did everything she had to do to survive and we are all lucky enough to be able to learn and be inspired by the incredible actions of this woman. The narration was exceptional, Barbara Rosenblat really made Edith come to life. As you listen, you feel her fear and her pain. An excellent listen.

An Amazing Story & Narration
I felt as if I was sitting across the table from Edith listening to her relive her story with all of its emotion, stress, and fear. I had read excellent reviews of the book and am so glad that I listened to it instead of read it. The narrator made each character's voice so true and unique. Each sigh and pause was perfect. I could hardly stop listening.
You will not be disappointed!

A riveting Story
Listed to this whilst travelling from Cumbria to a GP Practice in East London and the journey just few buy. That the story is true just makes the story the more incredible. As you get to know the characters and see Nazi Germany from a frightened housewife?s point of view you get perspective. Not every one in the story is bad, and many are not good at all, but they are all so real and so ordinary. You see the risk, the helpless endurance when all around you hate. You see how bad things can get and how grateful we can all be for the simple safety of our homes. It left me wondering if in the end, I could have come through what she came through with as much dignity and humanity. It also on a personal level, without getting all weird about it, made me reflect on suffering. How in the end it?s so individual. Millions might be suffering, but its millions of individuals just like you and I.
I have hundreds of Audible books now as I have been a member since only Audible.Com existed, and this is still one of my favourite listens.

A fantastic story of courage
This is my first purchase on Audible. I am delighted that, by chance, I found this amazing book, beautifully and powerfully written, and brilliantly narrated. The characters come completely to life. It's hard to believe that someone had the courage to survive such an ordeal, yet it is also full of hope. I can't recommend it highly enough.

The Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs extended their home winning streaks in the NBA on Wednesday.
Stephen Curry (33 points) and Klay Thompson (32) were superb as the Warriors brushed past the Los Angeles Clippers 114-98 at Oracle Arena.
That win marked the Warriors' 51st straight in the regular season at home.
Draymond Green had a double-double of 12 points and 12 rebounds as the Warriors improved to 64-7.
The Spurs made it 36 straight home wins to start the season with a 112-88 victory over the Miami Heat.

Kevin Love and LeBron James led the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 113-104 win against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Love had a double-double of 24 points and 10 rebounds, while James had a game-high 26 points.
The Utah Jazz claimed an important 89-87 win over the Houston Rockets in the chase for the eighth spot in the Western Conference.
Emmanuel Mudiay made an improbable buzzer-beater to see the Denver Nuggets edge the Philadelphia 76ers 104-103.

La La Land in Concert: A Live-to-Film Celebration at the Hollywood Bowl
Upstage Video was tapped to provide video elements for the premier of La La Land In Concert: A Live-to-Film Celebration at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, Ca. The May 26th and 27th events were staged by the creative team from Kraft-Engle, and Bowl promoter Andrew Hewitt & Bill Silva Presents with a 100-piece orchestra, choir and jazz band playing live music from the film. It featured the music of Academy Award Winner, Justin Hurvitz's score from the film, and premiered previously unheard music. Over 17,000 were in attendance including the film's award-winning best actress, Emma Stone.
At the heart of the production was Upstage Video's 20' x 50' wide CS8, LED screen center hung, on stage showing the film in its entirety in Cinemascope. Additional services included projection mapping on the Bowl's bandshell playing back artistic content related to the film on the iconic structure and a 10 camera HD flight pack to capture the event live to the venue's in-house LED screens.
Video Direction from Upstage Video's own, Mark Haney
Mark Haney, who directed cameras for the event said, "We were privileged to work with clients Richard Kraft, Laura Engle, and Lionsgate on what is a special film, not just to Angelenos, but to any fan of musicals. There were many moving parts, and the Upstage Video team really made the impossible, possible on a quick lead up to, and on the event itself. I feel privileged to work with such wonderfully talented people. We did the entire event out of our Los Angeles shop, and that made everything so much easier".
The show and production were given rave reviews by all who covered it in the press, and will continue with more shows worldwide in 2017. Haney mentioned the collaboration on the event was key, "As you do with any new show, you take all these parts of the puzzle, and put them together, that's always a group effort."

Bald Man Wins Appeal Against Police!
A police recruit in Northern Ireland has won an appeal after his application to join the police force was rejected because he did not have enough hair to undergo routine drugs testing. He was unable to give hairs of up to 3cm in length for the testing process, or to provide 200 body hairs as an alternative.
The man, who was at an advanced stage of the recruitment process, won his case at the High Court in Belfast after claiming the decision to reject his application was irrational and discriminatory.
Lawyers for the Police Service of Northern Ireland told the court that the man, who has not been named for security reasons, would be reinstated in the recruitment process, and policy would be changed to include other sources of DNA analysis.
It might seem like a small victory for the balding, but it does raise the question of how many other insidious forms of discrimination go unnoticed. Men who are experiencing hair loss may lack confidence in their appearance and feel that they look older, less attractive or less virile as a result. They may suspect that they are passed over for dates, or even promotion at work, in favour of those with a more youthful and vigorous appearance.
Androgenic alopecia, or male pattern baldness, is hereditary and causes hairloss in 25% of men by the age of 30. It is caused by the action of dihydrotestosterone, a hormonal derivative of testosterone that gradually causes hair follicles to become dysfunctional. The good news is that while balding may seem inevitable, especially if your father or grandfather went bald, there is in fact effective treatment available to stabilise hair loss and promote regrowth.
The Belgravia Centre's individually designed hair loss treatment courses are based around primary medications that are clinically proven to be safe and effective, along with various hair growth boosters.
Propecia and Minoxidil are the only products that are licensed by the MHRA in the UK, and FDA approved, so there is a wealth of evidence to demonstrate their effectiveness. For example, in a 5 year clinical study into the effects of Propecia on 279 men, 9 out of 10 subjects achieved visible results, either maintaining hair count (42%) or experiencing regrowth (48%) while all the men in the study who were not taking Propecia lost hair.
You can view our hair loss success stories to see just some of the results we have achieved for men suffering from thinning hair, a receding hairline or patchy baldness.
To book a free consultation with one of our hair specialists, call 020 7730 6666 or send us a message with any enquiry you might have. Alternatively, if you can't get to the London centre, complete the online diagnostic form for worldwide advice on a home-use treatment course individually designed to meet your needs.

I was 23 years old and had just dropped out of college to take my first official job as designer. I was broke, without any vision of my career path and was by far not what society would deem as 'ready for marriage.' In the United States the average age of marriage for men is 29 years old, so I see why I got some surprised looks and laughs when I told my coworkers I was getting married. Making that scary leap and asking my girlfriend (now wife) to marry me though has been by far the best decision I have ever made.
1. Happiness
Waking up every day right next to my best friend has made me so much happier. I feel a huge sense of security in our relationship and that security and happiness has allowed me more creative freedom than I had ever previously experienced. Some people scoff at the idea of marriage and say that it doesn't matter and it's just a piece of paper and you know what? They are right. It is just a piece of paper. It's a piece of paper that symbolizes your commitment to the relationship. It's a piece of paper that shows your willingness to stick together through everything that may come. The Constitution of the United States was just a piece of paper too, and yet it is revered as one of the most important pieces of paper in history.
Papers matter. Commitment matters. I feel so much happier knowing that our commitment is official, signed, dated and witnessed by God and hundreds of our greatest family members and friends. This happiness overflows into an abundance of creative freedom to apply to my design work.
2. Focus. Focus. Focus.
After getting married I was faced with this huge reality shock that someday we are going to have kids and that I will need to be the provider for our family. This reality have given me a drive and a vision for my career unlike anything I've ever experienced. Since getting married I have improved so much in my design abilities and because of that I've landed tons of freelance jobs and scored an amazing full-time job as a creative director for a small organization.
3. Money
Now, I ain't sayin' she's a gold digger…but we definitely aren't broke. Since getting married I've had salary increases, surprising freelance gigs and opportunities like I've never experienced before. Its a lot easier to pitch to your boss why you need a raise when you are married, compared to when you are just a single guy wanting to buy a bunch of expensive toys. You may call it a coincidence but research actually shows that men who get married in their twenties make more money than those who don't. It's science.
4. Life-long Cheerleader
When I was living with a bunch of roommates before getting married I would design something and the biggest compliment I would get was a approving head nod or a 'that's cool bro'. Being married is awesome because everything I do is like the coolest thing my wife has ever seen. I live in a shower of compliments, which for me fuels a desire to want to create more and become even better. Being married to my wife is like living with a cheerleader, minus the annoying pom-poms and crazy round-offs. (Although my wife does do those from time-to-time.)
Right after proposing to my wife I met with an amazing organization and was offered a job as a creative director. I've since been given the opportunity to travel, I've had my work featured on major news networks like Abc Nighline and Aljazeera, and I've seen more blessings than I ever could have imagined.
I can't claim that there is a direct correlation between marriage and success nor will I ever claim that marriage is the end-all to struggle in life. We definitely have had our struggles. What I will claim, however, is that marrying my wife is the best thing I have ever done. My life and career has changed so much in the short time that we've been married and I can't even begin to imagine what bigger adventures our future holds as we continue our lives together.

Today was a beautiful Sunday of blue skies, warm breezes, and no schedules stretching out lazily before me. I stopped into the local Asian market to pick up the requisite 25 lb bag of rice, box of ramen noodles and bunches of cheap, fresh veggies. While there, I decided I wanted to tackle cooking a whole fish, since I'd never done it before!
The fish counter at the asian market is pretty intimidating. Rows and rows of fish on ice with blank, wet eyes staring back at you. On top of that it smells funny and I don't know exactly the right words in vietnamese to explain what I want. But I forged on in the name of deliciousness!
I picked out a red snapper and had the fish guy de-scale & de-fin the fish. A man next to me told me check under the gills. If it is red, the fish is fresh; if it is brown or darkened, it's no good. Pretty good tip! There was some miscommunication between our hand signals and my broken vietnamese and the fish guy ended up also slicing the fish in half, but not a big deal.
Once I got home, I did some quick recipe research on how to steam a whole fish, since I wanted to stay healthy, and frying a whole fish seemed a lot messier. In reading these recipes, I found the following standard rules of fish-steaming:
- Fill the fish cavity with aromatics
- Steam a 1 lb fish for 15-20 min
- In a separate pan, heat oil to almost smoking and quickly sautee some scallions/ginger etc, and then pour this on to of the steamed fish
Following these rules, I came up with the following recipe. It makes for a very healthy, hot, and delicious mean, and was actually quite easy, so you should try it out!
- 1 lb whole red snapper
- 2 inches of ginger
- 2 inches of carrot
- 1/2 bunch cilantro
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 scallions
- 2 TB soy sauce
- 1 TB sesame oil
- 1/2 TB fish sauce
- 1 bottle beer
- 4 stalks celery
- 1 lime
- Salt, pepper
- Rinse off the fish and rub the outside and inside with salt & pepper to season
- Julienne the ginger and carrots. Coarsely chop the cilantro. slice the garlic cloves. Chop up the scallions. Slice the lime into thin rounds. Set all aside on a plate.
- Stuff the fish with the ginger, carrots, cilantro, garlic and lime slices. Use about 1/2 of everything, reserving the rest for later. Lay some lime slices on the top of the fish.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, and fish sauce. Pour this on top of the fish.
- In a pan big enough to fit your fish, lay down 4 celery stalks. These will form a nice little stand for your fish while it is steaming.
- Pour one bottle of beer into the pan and turn up the heat to med-hi. I used Heineken b/c all asian men drink Heineken and i figured that would make sense in an asian-style dish.
- Once the beer starts boiling, carefully lift the fish onto the celery stalks and cover the pan to let the fish steam. You can also pour in any excess sauce from the plate directly into the pan.
(Please ignore my ghetto lid setup. I didn't have a lid to the big pan I was using!)
- When the fish has about 3 min left, in a separate pot, heat up 4 TB oil to nearly smoking. Toss in the remaining ginger, carrots, garlic and quickly stir to cook and get all the flavors out – about 1-2 min, then turn down the heat.
- Use a spatula to lift the fish out of the pan and onto a serving plate. Remove the stuffing and discard. Pour the hot oil/ginger/carrot/garlic mix directly over top the fish. Garnish with more cilantro and you are ready to serve!
I served the fish with some steamed rice, a plate of fresh herbs, and some lime/sugar/fish sauce sauce. The meat is tender and flaky. The sauteed ginger/carrot/garlic are really the key piece in making this dish. It's spicy, sweet, and strong against the light flavor of the fish meat. Make sure you get some bites with the fish & ginger all at once!

Ratings and Reviews
Good, but now adding videos? Also, favorites dropped inexplicably
Good. Of the limited choices for fast and accurate routing I thus far favor googlemaps over the native ios map app. Three frustrations though: video ads are coming, with no control; favorites disappear;
Oon the latest upgrade i see the new "feature" is "you can see videos posted by businesses about their latest offerings." OMG now here comes the bandwidth-sucking auto-play videos, though I haven't seen them yet after the last upgrade. No control to be found in Settings-> Google Map menu. Will the audio track cut into my podcast or music stream while I'm navigating or browsing the map? Let us search and navigate in peace!!! If videos autoplay or don't have a default "still frame" mode with click-to-load by default, I'll look at moving my favorites someplace else. google maps alone already is among my top users of my data plan, and one of the few apps that i allow to use cell data BW because i have to allow it that.
Another puzzle: favorites seem to randomly disappear off the map. I often focus the map on a wide view to find my favorite by location, the star is missing from the map.
Lastly, as other reviewers note, I often need to choose a nav path by dragging the route line, allowed on desktop but not on ios even with larger ipad screens. Add this feature so i can determine my route!!
What's up with the new landmarks?
Google maps has recently started telling me to "turn left after jack in the box" instead of giving me the actual relevant information of the street name I should be turning down. If I wanted directions from my aunt I would have asked her. Also the map always bugs out and can't seem to figure out if I've stayed on the highway or if I'm magically driving on the road the highway crosses under. The gps takes a while to refigure out where I am and often gives incorrect directions while it's figuring out which road I'm on, even though I'm clearly just following the directions and couldn't possibly jump from the highway to the streets crossing above the overpass. This did not used to be a problem. Only in the newer versions. Maybe google should incorporate elevation so the gps app would know where I am is on the route that it's giving me directions for and not suddenly some other road. Unfortunately, it's still light years better than Apple maps so I always use it which only makes these problems more frustrating. Lastly, I hate that if I'm trying to zoom out using two fingers, the app for some unknown ultimately annoying reason ALWAYS zooms back in to the cars location on the map. Most annoying feature ever! If I'm zooming out it's for a reason, to see the entire route. Please fix.
Fastest oil change and wash ever!
I would have given 5 stars but I had never had my car serviced yet since it's new and I wasn't sure where to go. I saw service so I drove up and nobody came out as I gathered my stuff so I went in the doors marked service to a large room with offices to my left and two men at open desks to my left. One was on the phone and one was just to busy with his papers to use his mouth to say anything like, how can I help you? After standing where I think I'm supposed to be for what felt like an uncomfortable eternity he finally looked up and said, "what can I do for you?"😒 As I walked over I new by the look on his face I was about to be talked down to and I was right. He cut me off at every chance. When he looked up my name on the computer I know he saw that I hadn't had my suv serviced there yet and I thought I might hear something like, thank you for choosing us to service your car but no instead I got the let's belittle her routine and then your excused to the waiting area with a head gesture to the direction i was supposed to go. What has I to customer service? I can not tell you how many places that do not teach their employees real customer service. O~well 😐 don't be to have your cars oil changed here just don't expect anything more.

In the U.S.-led coalition fight against the Islamic State group, a airstrike in mid-March reportedly left more than 100 civilians dead in Western Mosul. John Yang speaks with Loveday Morris of The Washington Post about the strike and how brutal fighting is affecting civilians.
Read the Full Transcript
Now: A bombing in Iraq by the American-led military coalition leaves scores dead.
John Yang has that.
The airstrike took place in the Al Jadida neighborhood of Western Mosul amid pitched fighting between ISIS militants and Iraqi government forces. The reports from the scene are gruesome, more than 100 dead.
For more on this incident and the brutal battle there, I'm joined from Irbil in Northern Iraq via Skype by Loveday Morris of The Washington Post.
Loveday, thanks for joining us. I know it's very late there.
It's been 10 days since this incident took place. The Pentagon said the air assault took place on March 17. What do we know about what happened?
LOVEDAY MORRIS, The Washington Post:
What happened was, Iraqi forces were advancing into the area at the time with an ISIS-held area.
It was one where residents say that there were a lot of ISIS fighters fighting from the rooftops, and they were sheltering in their homes. And as the Iraqi forces advanced, there was heavy bombardment on this neighborhood.
And there are allegations of actually multiple buildings hit by U.S. airstrikes, but that one particular building where they have pulled out more than 100 bodies, 101 bodies now, and that's an alleged site of one of the strikes.
But the Iraqis are saying that it was booby-trapped by ISIS.
Yes, that's right. They said they have made an initial investigation, and this particular building was booby-trapped by ISIS.
Initially, commanders blamed it on an ISIS car bomb, the collapse. There have been several conflicting stories. Iraqi civil defense, the rescue workers who are pulling the bodies out of the building, they say they're experts in building collapses, and they say this was caused by an airstrikes.
And the U.S. coalition has said that it carried out a strike at the location of accusations of mass civilian casualties.
We have seen this fighting around Mosul really intensify.
President Trump had said he wanted give commanders in the field more flexibility. What do we know about the rules covering airstrikes like these? Have they changed since President Trump came into office?
What we hear on the U.S. side and from the coalition is, no, there's been no change at all for the rules of engagement so far.
The Iraqis are saying that as well. Official, there's no change to the rules of engagement. There does seem to be some speeding of the process of calling in airstrikes. They have made the process faster. They have put U.S. forward air controllers closer to Mosul.
But it's really unclear what exactly is causing this. And there has been a spike now in civilian casualty accusations both in Iraq and Syria.
And this is in Mosul, some of the most intense urban fighting, street-to-street, house-to-house. What is the impact on the civilian population?
It's a huge impact. You have a huge amount of ordnance flying into that city, not just from airstrikes, but from artillery.
And, obviously, ISIS also uses heavy weaponry and booby-traps. Really, you talk to civilians that are coming out of Mosul, they have been in their basements for weeks on end. They're absolutely terrified. ISIS are using their rooftops and make them keep their front doors open.
So, they're very scared of airstrikes on their own houses while they're hiding inside. People are coming out, and, yes, a horrific state. There's very little food, water inside. The area is under siege. It's a terrible situation for civilians.
Are they able to flee?
Some are. Some aren't. I mean, they normally can't flee until the Iraqi security forces get to their area.
What has happened, in some cases, ISIS will send a wave of civilians out. They will order them to leave their homes. The Iraqis will have to hold fire if there's a big wave of civilians coming out. It really slows them down.
So, sometimes, people come out like that. Other times, ISIS keep them in, keeps them blocked in their neighborhood to use as human shields. And, in that case, I mean, any time people are coming out, they're always caught in very dangerous crossfire. You have snipers. You have mortars. Yes, it's tough for people to get out, for sure.
Loveday Morris, The Washington Post, from Irbil, thanks for joining us, and be safe.
Thank you.

This arguement would be about banning mandatory subjects for high schools. I would be representing the the "Pro/For" side to this debate. This debate would have 3 rounds. The first round would be used to introduce the debators, clarify the rules and definitions. The actual debate would start at round two. Voting period would last 3 days, time to argue would be 48 hours and a maximum of 6,000 characters per arguement.
- No use of Profanity (Swearing)
- No trolling
- Labeling your sources is optional and is only mandatory if your opponent ask for the sources
- Ban: Officially or legally prohibit (e.g. Putting a ban on television)
- Mandatory: Required by law or rules (e.g. It is mandatory to wear a seat belt)
- High School: Grade 9 to 12
Opponent you are obligated to address any info, rules or definitions that I have missed, but you can't change any of the info, rules or definitions that have been said.
I assume BOP is on the Affirmative(Pro).
Therefore I am under no obligation to advance any arguments(even though I will) simply show why his reasoning is flawed.
Before we start I just want to address that the examples that I would be using are all coming from the school board I grew up in (Ontario, Canada). I am unaware about the school boards in places like the US, UK, ect..., but my opponent is free to use examples from the school board he grew up in or from a school board he fimiliar with.
1. Mandatory courses distract a person from reaching their goals
Lets say I wanted to be an accountant. According to the Brock University's accounting program, it is required to take grade 12 english and 2 math courses and for the sake of it, I'll add economics and law. In total that is 5 courses yet the school board forces us to take 8. All this does is create more unnecessary work for students and can bring their overall average down significantly. If the student scores a low enough average, it could prevents that student from getting into the best universities or even any university at all.
2. English class
The reason why Brock University listed english as a required course is because the school board I grew up in said that it was mandatory to take english from grade 9 to grade 12. So if you were to go on any university or college program it would always say that grade 12 english is required. Back to my arguement, high school english class does teach kids to be better writers, but by writers I mean book authors not business type writers. It was careers class that taught me how to write a resume and covering letter. Today's english class is all about detecting symbolism in novels, it's nothing beneficial to someone who wants to become as I said an accoutant, salesman, cop, ect... going back to my first arguement all this does is distract a student from the more important subjects and brings down their overall average.

Role of institutions
Health establishments have prime responsibility for preventing and controlling nosocomial infections, because they are charged with providing high quality, safe care and services to users.
Nosocomial infections are a challenge for each institution. Combatting them involves a joint effort by administrators, managers, physicians, professionals, clinicians and technical and support staff, and requires a structured program.
Infection prevention and control program
Implementation of a structured infection prevention and control (IPC) program is known to be effective in reducing the infectious risk associated with the delivery of care and services. Program content should be adapted to each establishment and reflect its size, mission, activities, and experience in this area. The IPC program is generally designed to protect patients from contracting infections or multiresistant germs during a care episode, and to safeguard personnel, visitors, volunteers and family caregivers.
The program comprises various activities:
- infection surveillance;
- policies, procedures and support measures for prevention and control of nosocomial infections;
- education and training;
- evaluation;
- communication and information;
- management of outbreaks.
Each institution should set up a team to conduct its IPC program activities.
In order to be completely transparent with the public, the Minister of Health and Social Services has asked the managements of health institutions to provide information about nosocomial infection rates at their establishments. Since November 2005, figures from the provincial surveillance program monitoring Clostridium difficile infections in Québec hospitals have been posted on the MSSS website. The information shows infection rates by hospital and public health region for the whole of Québec.

Coffee Dates with Friends & Kristen Leigh Lettering and Design
Ahh coffee, it wasn't one of those things I had an instant taste for. I still don't, really. But a little espresso is my jam. Add a little peppermint syrup and mocha and we're in business! But even better than drinking an espresso is getting share that cup of joe with a good friend. This year, I'm trying to foster relationships more - i.e. having meet-ups with other creative-type people in the Houston area and getting to know them.
My handwriting looks like chicken scratch. So I guess that's why I've always been amazed with people who have nice handwriting. Like when I was in high school, I thought it was so cool when we would be making signs and someone could do bubble letters - you know what I'm talking about - those letters that look like puffy clouds. Now that I'm older, I could care less about those bubbles letters - but I'm more impressed with people who can do hand lettering and calligraphy. And not just do it, but do it well - like Kristen from Kristen Leigh Lettering and Design. This woman is so crazy talented! Kristen and I met a little over a year ago and we became fast friends. She is kind, compassionate, and just an all-around amazing person. We're both laid back kind of people, so our personalities really work well together.
If you ever want to take your wedding, dinner party, or home decor up a notch, contact Kristen. You won't be disappointed!

The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Tuesday that the IRS had no legal authority to impose a nationwide licensing scheme on tax return preparers that would have required testing and continuing education as Registered Tax Return Preparers.
The decision affirms a January 2013 ruling by U.S. District Court Judge James E. Boasberg, which struck down the IRS's new regulations as unlawful (see Court Rules IRS Doesn't Have the Authority to Regulate Tax Preparers). In the case, known as Loving v. IRS, both courts rejected the IRS's claim that tax-preparer licensure was authorized by an obscure 1884 statute governing the representatives of Civil War soldiers seeking compensation for dead horses.
"This is a major victory for tax preparers—and taxpayers—nationwide," said Dan Alban of the Institute for Justice, the lead attorney for the three independent tax preparers who filed the suit. "The court found that Congress never gave the IRS the power to license tax preparers, and the IRS cannot give itself that authority."
The appeals court held, "If we were to accept the IRS's interpretation of [the statute], the IRS would be empowered for the first time to regulate hundreds of thousands of individuals in the multi-billion dollar tax-preparation industry. Yet nothing in the statute's text or the legislative record contemplates that vast expansion of the IRS's authority."
More than 350,000 tax-return preparers would have been subject to the regulations. The attorneys for the preparers argued that the regulations would have put tens of thousands of mom-and-pop preparers out of business and increased the cost of tax-return preparation for millions of taxpayers.
"My customers—not the IRS—should be the ones who get to choose who prepares their taxes," said Sabina Loving, an independent tax preparer from Chicago and the lead plaintiff in the case. "I have a right to earn an honest living without getting permission from the IRS."
The court ruled that "[t]he IRS may not unilaterally expand its authority through such an expansive, atextual, and ahistorical reading of [the statute]."
"We think it's a major victory for both independent tax preparers and taxpayers," Institute for Justice senior attorney Scott Bullock said in an interview. "The three-judge panel unanimously affirmed all the fundamental points of the District Court's opinion and held that the IRS does not have the authority to regulate tax preparers under the statute and under the legislative history of the law. The IRS simply cannot assume that authority to license tax preparers. They need to go to Congress to get that authority. That's what the D.C. Circuit held. They gave six separate reasons for affirming the District Court opinion and just really affirmed it across the board."
Bullock hopes the IRS decides not to pursue further appeals in the case. "It has now been rejected by four judges, both the District Court and by three D.C. Circuit judges," he said. "They do have the right to petition the entire D.C. Circuit. I believe they have 45 days to do so. The federal government has a little bit longer than most folks. Then the court will decide that relatively quickly. Then, after that, the next step for them would be to go before the Supreme Court and they would have 90 days. If they decide not to petition the entire D.C. Circuit, it would be 90 days from today. If they do decide to petition the entire D.C. Circuit and they reject that, it would be 90 days from whenever that order rejecting the en banc petition came though."
When Judge Boasberg clarified his original decision last year, he ruled that the IRS can continue to require tax preparers to register for Preparer Tax Identification Numbers, or PTINs, and the latest ruling should not affect that. However, it should also bring some relief to tax professionals.
"It was a big relief to many of the independent tax preparers when the decision was first handed down," said Bullock. "Hopefully this will end the matter once and for all and they would not be subjected these new licensing requirements, but it's up to the IRS if they decide to continue to appeal."
The IRS was noncommittal on whether it plans future appeals. "The IRS is currently reviewing the decision," the IRS said in a statement. "The IRS continues to believe that it's critical for taxpayers to be able to rely on quality work from tax preparers."
Bullock believes the IRS should provide refunds to tax preparers who paid to take the tests and continuing education courses before the RTRP regime was invalidated by the courts.
"I believe they would probably be required to do that, and they [the tax preparers] would have the right if they so choose not to be subjected to these licensing requirements."
"Administrative agency overreach threatens the economic liberty rights of entrepreneurs," said Institute president and general counsel William Mellor in a statement. "This precedent ensures that agencies must follow the law and cannot exceed the power given to them by Congress." As the Court noted, "fox-in-the-henhouse syndrome is to be avoided . . . by taking seriously, and applying rigorously, in all cases, statutory limits on agencies' authority.'"
IRS Commissioner John Koskinen has indicated he would be open to offering the certification on a voluntary basis to tax preparers if the IRS loses the appeal. "If you can't require it, offer it, and if you complete the information, you get a certificate that says, I have completed the IRS preparer course.' I think that could be over time very valuable to preparers, and consumers could ask preparers, Have you gone through the IRS training?'" said Koskinen during a press conference last month after he was sworn in as commissioner (see IRS's New Commissioner Favors Voluntary Tax Preparer Certification). "Whatever happens with the court case, we ought to be able to move forward on that and provide taxpayers with as much assurance as we can that the preparers they are dealing with have met some kind of minimum standards."
Bullock indicated the Institute for Justice would have no problem with a voluntary certification scheme. "We made that very clear in our statements because they [the IRS] had asked the D.C. Circuit to stay the ruling, and they had stated they had no power to even do this on a voluntary basis," said Bullock. "And we had said, That's not true. You can offer this, but you can't require licensure. But if you want to do this on a voluntary basis, you're free to do so.' And the district court judge made it clear that the IRS was free to do this on a voluntary basis, but they could not legally require it, it. If they did that, that of course would end the legal dispute."
H&R Block Slams Decision
H&R Block, which was one of the main proponents of the RTRP tax preparer regulation regime, reacted with dismay to the Appeals Court decision.
Block said that in a country where all 50 states regulate hair dressers, the tax prep chain found it "stunning" that tax preparers, with extensive access to the personal financial history and identities of their clients, are not required to meet minimum competency standards.
"It is outrageous that all consumers don't enjoy basic protections with such a significant financial transaction as tax preparation," said H&R Block president and CEO Bill Cobb in a statement. "Something is out of whack when you are better protected when getting your haircut than when sitting across the desk from a tax preparer. All consumers should have access to the protection that our clients receive when working with our highly trained tax professionals."
H&R Block noted that it has long supported efforts to better serve and protect consumers through minimum standards for, and oversight of all tax return preparers. Block pointed out that it already trains and has continuing education requirements for all of its tax preparers and added that it looks forward to working with Congress and the Treasury Department on "any legislation that may be necessary to implement minimum tax preparer standards as a formidable tool in the fight against fraud."
One tax attorney pointed out that the IRS will still be able to check up on errant tax preparers, even after the latest ruling. "The IRS's ability to require previously unregistered tax preparers to meet certain education and testing requirements, while perhaps now temporarily set back a step, will inevitably come to pass because of the important role preparers play in tax system administration," said G. Michelle Ferreira, tax attorney and managing shareholder of the San Francisco office of international law firm Greenberg Traurig. "I believe law makers will recognize the need to make explicit that the IRS should be able to set basic standards for individuals who prepare tax returns so that we can be sure such returns are correct and in compliance."
Because the Loving decision does not disturb the rules requiring all paid preparers to obtain a PTIN, those individuals must still register with the IRS, Ferreira said, "which still gives the IRS the ability to check up on preparers where evidence points to problems."
CPA Reactions
While attorneys and CPAs would have been exempt from the proposed rules, several CPAs from the New York State Society of CPAs reacted strongly to the news of the court's decision Tuesday.
"The potential impact is that the storefront tax preparer will thrive on the ignorant and the fraud will continue," said Vincent Cosenza, CPA and tax manager at Shanolt, Glassman, Klein and Kramer PC in New York City.
"Much of what the IRS was looking for is already being done by most CPA firms," said David Young, CPA, owner of Young & Company CPAs LLC in Rochester, N.Y. "Having a strong system of quality control for tax return preparation and continuing professional education is in part what differentiates a CPA firm from H&R Block and other non-CPA firms. The taxpayer is ultimately responsible for what is on his or her income tax return.
"When choosing a tax preparer, the taxpayer should consider the possible negative ramifications of choosing an unregulated and unlicensed tax return preparer," Young advised. "It would be wise for the taxpayer to ask about the tax preparer's qualifications, continuing professional education, and the firm's quality control as it relates to tax returns."
"I am a little upset that unlicensed tax preparers don't have to deal with taking CPE and keeping themselves up to date with new legislation, as CPA are required to do annually," said Johnpaul Crocenzi, CPA, a tax manager at Raich Ende Malter & Co. LLP in New York. "Having the IRS regulate tax preparers will actually protect the consumer from having a tax return done by someone that doesn't know or understand the Tax Code."
Although the IRS proposed regulation of tax return preparers did not directly affect CPAs, there is always a concern about regulations that can creep into other areas, according to Kevin McCoy, CPA, director of Marvin and Company near Albany, N.Y. But "until the IRS is granted the authority by Congress, it appears the unlicensed tax return preparers are free to continue to operate as before," he said.

Silly me, this fact didn't even occur to me, but Michael E. Hanke over at the Canton Repository points it out…
Shame on Republican Ken Blackwell for saying his opponent for Ohio governor, Democrat Ted Strickland, will raise taxes if he is elected. A governor can?t raise taxes. He might propose a tax, and he might even veto a tax bill, but only the Legislature can raise taxes. And since hell has a better chance of freezing over than the Democrats have in taking over a majority of seats in either house of the Ohio Legislature in November, you aren?t going to see a tax increase proposal from a Democrat governor pass in Ohio.
All this "Ted = Tax" hullaballoo from wingnuts just doesn't make any sense.
Hat tip to Yellow Dog Sammy over at Ohio2006.
They are both dirty politicians. Vote for Bill Peirce… we need a frickin' economist for governor!
Why woudl I want to vote for the Libertarian? The policies don't work. Or rather, they are bad for average people.

Question about Sony Playstation 3 (PS3) Console
I have 3 ps3 in my house and we all 3 get on cod4 we can all 3 play but we cant invite all of us into the same room,2 of us will be able to but the third cant send or accept invite from anyone.We can all 3 play at the same time we just cant send or accept invites when we all 3 play.Is it cod4 or PSN thats the problem?Will it be this way with all games,are you not suppossed to have 3 ps3 in 1 house?I emailed sony tech support but they never responded.I have a belkin router and we used to all play togethor on the ps2 and never had problems,but now we cant all play cod4 togethor.HELP
Posted by dynomyte on
I have same problem tried the ethernet cabe still the same this really sucks bought second ps3 just so we can play cod4 together cant seem to figure it out also tried all the settings no dice
Posted on Jul 27, 2008
On the Ps3 that isn't working, go into the settings and see if there is something under it that is prevent invitations or friend requests. It will probably be under parental controls or network settings. If someone else hosts the game can that Ps3 join. Also try and get the messed up one connected by ethernet cable and not wireless, it may be cutting out as there are 3 ps3's and probably multiple computers hogging the signal.

Scouts Give Pride and Honor to CKSC
- October 30, 2013 1:52 PM
October of every year is Scouting month in the Philippines. The 10th month of the year is also National Children's Month. It is the month to recognize the vital role of the youth in nation building. Many activities and celebrations are held to promote their welfare and the protection of their physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and well being.
With that in mind, the Manila Council of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines conducted the awarding ceremony of the 2013 search for Ten Outstanding Scouts of Manila (TOSM) last October 24 at the social hall of the Nuestra Senora del Pilar, Sta. Cruz Church. The search aimed to recognize scouts in grade school and high school who best epitomize sterling qualities of leadership in school and community. More than thirty candidates were interviewed by a panel of judges last July 19 at the Augusto Syjuco Scouting Center and their submitted documents were also reviewed.

How we see signs has an effect on our interpretation of them. Shark more than a Wall Light remind us of the dangerous feeling that a shark tail above the water gives us but decontextualized of its natural habitat. This iconic aesthetical representation can be seen in various types of art, from cinema to graphic design and even in warning signs.
Stuck in the wall this shark's tail is used as sconce with a V shaped light, adding a sense of speed to it. The stucco around the metal structure can be painted in any RAL color the client may need so it fits perfectly to any color wall. The metal part can be sold alone without the stucco or even mixed with both styles on a wall. Giving a more fun approach to your wall, Shark will chase any unexpected visitor and welcome every one you welcome. This sconce it's a statement piece as turned on and off that will give another identity to your room.

Landlord: Amanda! When you two gonna come use the beach cottage that comes with your rent? I've got a new one down here and the view! It's the best view on the beach!
Amanda: How about this weekend?
Landlord: How about any weekend but this weekend?
Amanda: Mid-July? We're going to Canada.
Landlord: OK, tell you what, come down this weekend. Bring your linens, towels, you know. The kitchen isn't working yet, but we got a fridge with beer.
When someone basically demands you come use their beach cottage for free, and you can do it right now, well, how can you say no?
The beach house is a recent purchase and new windows were just installed, to take advantage of the view. The floors are unfinished, the walls are unpainted, and the front door has a lock but no knob.
And the view? Worth a million bucks.
Landlord: Tomorrow morning, around, oh, 5:40… 5:48, your toes will glow with the sunlight.
Amanda: Hmm. [Good Man] will complain. He's like a cat, he sleeps a lot.
At 5:46, the brightening sky woke me up. Good Man pulled our blanket over his head. I went out to take pictures.
I know that staring at the sun is bad, but how can you not stare when you can see it moving in the sky? When you can actually see the sun rising in the sky, how can you not look at it in awe? (No, I'm not a sungazer. I have yet to convert my body to photosynthesis.)
The photo below? That was the view from the bed in the house. It really was a great view.
06:06, 06/26/10
Good Man: I want to do wine tasting. Let's find place.
Oak Crest Vineyard and Winery
Landlord, on my voice mail: I hope you guys are enjoying your stay. Hey, listen, there are antique rocking chairs in the kitchen. Take them out on the porch and enjoy the sunset and drink some beer.
Me, to Good Man: He's like a father or something. He tells us what to do.
Good Man: Yeah, but I want beer.
So we sat on the porch. Good Man lounged around, nursing a beer. I sat in the green antique rocking chair, working on a knitting project. And then I spotted the orange, orange moon.

Panaji: Goa Chief Minister Laxmikant Parsekar on Thursday said it is difficult for the state to get its demand for special status approved by the Centre since it may not fit within the legal framework.
"I also feel that special status should be accorded to Goa, but we have to chase whatever is practical, feasible and possible within the legal framework. I would be happy if we got it, but I have said that it is difficult. So we are considering other options," Parsekar told reporters at Dona Paula, where he met Union Science and Technology Minister Harsh Vardhan.
Goa has been demanding special status to preserve its unique identity and depleting land resources. The Goa State Legislative Assembly had passed a resolution seeking such a status and the state government had also petitioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently demanding special status.
"We have not withdrawn our demand for special status but I would say that it is difficult," he said.
The Goa Chief Minister said that during next three years ahead of 2017 Assembly polls, the focus would be on creating private sector jobs.
"During the last three years and even during the last term, we implemented several schemes. Now the priority would be job creation. After Goa's liberation, development of educational infrastructure led to educated unemployed youth. They aspire for government jobs and hence get frustrated," Parsekar said.
"We have already set up an investment promotion board to welcome investors. We have asked the central government for a tax holiday. All government departments would pursue the same agenda of job creation," he said.
