One possible route to developing the potential of hydrogen in decarbonising the offshore energy system is through the use of offshore renewable energy for conversion of electrical energy into hydrogen on existing oil and gas platforms, which is then stored or transported onshore via pipelines or cryogenically in ships.
The project aims to facilitate major expansion and improvement in collaboration between offshore industry sectors, government and the whole systems research community to bring much clearer strategic focus to development of the hydrogen economy and facilitate information sharing.
A key challenge will be to improve understanding of the opportunities to collaborate and to identify the technical, policy and governance barriers to optimising these systems and improving their economic viability. They will achieve this by arranging sector specific round table sessions, then a networking / workshop event to showcase key relevant research and demonstration projects.

David Blood, the former head of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, and former Vice President Al Gore co-founded Generation Investment Management in 2004. The fund recently filed a 13G with the SEC to disclose ownership of 4.4 million shares of Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ:HSIC), an $8.9 billion market cap medical equipment company, or 5.1% of the total shares outstanding. We track quarterly 13F filings from hundreds of hedge funds, including Generation, as part of our work researching investment strategies (we have found, for example, that the most popular small cap stocks among hedge funds earn an average excess return of 18 percentage points per year) and can see from our database that Generation had owned 4.2 million shares of Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ:HSIC) at the end of March. Check out Generation's stock picks. At that time the stock was its largest holding by market value, so while only a small number of shares have been bought since that time it's interesting that Generation would add to its largest position.
In the first quarter of 2013, Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ:HSIC)'s revenue grew by 9% versus a year earlier. The animal health business, which accounted for 28% of total sales, was the fastest-growing of the company's segments and helped make up for only 3% growth in the dental division (the largest of Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ:HSIC)'s segments, at just over half of revenue). With expenses rising as well, however, there was little change in the company's pretax income after adding back some restructuring charges to the Q1 2012 numbers.
The financial community, however, is quite bullish on Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ:HSIC): at its current valuation, the stock trades at 22 times trailing earnings. Even if the company was holding its margins steady, and therefore growing net income at the same rate as revenue, it would be difficult to call it undervalued at that price; given the fact that costs seem to outpacing sales, to the point that pretax profits have been rising only modestly, the stock does not look like a good value. Wall Street analysts expect little earnings growth at least in the near term, with their forecasts implying a forward P/E of 19. In addition to Generation's involvement, billionaire Ken Fisher's Fisher Asset Management reported a position of 590,000 shares in its own 13F (find Fisher's favorite stocks). D.E. Shaw, a hedge fund managed by billionaire David Shaw, more than doubled its own holdings in Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ:HSIC) to a total of about 320,000 shares (see more stocks D.E. Shaw owned).
Other companies which sell and distribute medical equipment include Patterson Companies, Inc. (NASDAQ:PDCO), Owens & Minor, Inc. (NYSE:OMI), MWI Veterinary Supply, Inc. (NASDAQ:MWIV), and McKesson Corporation (NYSE:MCK). This peer group is characterized by high earnings multiples as well, as markets look for high growth. MWI Veterinary Supply, Inc. (NASDAQ:MWIV) is valued at 28 times trailing earnings, though it did report double-digit growth rates on both top and bottom lines in its most recent quarter compared to the same period in the previous year. We'd also noted in our look at Henry Schein that its animal health unit was a strong point, so MWI does merit something of a premium to these other companies in our view.
The other three peers we listed carry trailing P/Es in the 20-21 range, roughly in line with where Henry Schein, Inc. (NASDAQ:HSIC) trades. McKesson Corporation (NYSE:MCK) experienced a steep decline in its earnings in fiscal Q4 (which ended in March) from levels a year earlier, but the sell-side apparently expects the company to recover and as a result it's priced at only 13 times forward earnings estimates. Patterson Companies, Inc. (NASDAQ:PDCO) and Owens & Minor, Inc. (NYSE:OMI) have both been seeing very light revenue growth, so as with Henry Schein we wouldn't count them on growing fast enough going forward to justify their current valuations.
The industry as a whole seems to be pricing in quite aggressive growth compared to recent results. McKesson Corporation (NYSE:MCK) is the only company here which could qualify as a value, and even then it would be because of optimistic analyst projections; with the business struggling recently, we'd avoid it. MWI Veterinary Supply, Inc. (NASDAQ:MWIV) has been growing nicely, as we've seen, and might be worth looking into if it can continue that trend for another quarter or so, but at this point its earnings multiple would keep us from buying as well.

The metaphor of machines enters early into the story, as in the third chapter, the narrator encounters a veteran who claims to have graduated from the same college the narrator currently attends, along with being a doctor.

... middle of paper ...
... near-death, the invisible man finds solace in his invisibility and comprehends his place in humanity (Ellison 4). Instead of publicly - whether vocally or physically - fighting against his treatment as a machine by the white supremacists or submitting to the characterization of a gear in a machine, the invisible man forges his own way of dealing with people. In ways such as stealing electricity from the Monopolated Light & Power Company, the narrator not only complies with society, but also is able to get his "revenge" in a sense (Ellison 7). Done through the symbolism of machines, the invisible man is able not only able to comprehend the mechanics of civilization, but is able to use this information and his newly understood freewill to arrange how he is perceived by others.

Symbolism in Invisible Man, by Ralph Ellison Essay
- When looking into the inner workings of a machine, one does not see each individual gear as being separate, but as an essential part of a larger system. The cogs on the gear move in a way that losing one would cause the entire machine to fail. This concept of mechanics lays the foundation to many issues touched on in Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison. The machine imagery comes through in two conversations with men that the narrator may idolize, though he – the invisible man – does not realize this at the time....

Symbols in the Briefcase in "Invisible Man" by Ralph Ellison Essay
- Towards the end of the book "Invisible Man" by Ralph Ellison, the narrator who remains unnamed thought the entire book, risks his life to save a briefcase filled with seemingly random assorted items. But later in the book the narrator is forced to burn the items in his briefcase in order to find his way out of a sewer he gets stuck in. Closer reading reveals that the items in his briefcase are more than random assorted items, but instead are symbols. Each one of those symbols represents a point in the narrator's life where he is either betrayed or made "invisible" by the people around him.... [tags: Invisible Man, Ralph Ellison, symbolism, ]

Aesthetics of Invisible Man, by Ralph Ellison Essay
- Ralph Ellison painstakingly crafted a separate world in Invisible Man , a novel that succeeds because it is an intricate aesthetic creation -- humane, compassionate, and yet gloriously devoid of a moral. Social comment is neither the aim nor the drive of art, and Ellison did not attempt to document a plight. He created a place where race is reflected and distorted, where pithy generalities are dismissed, where personal and aesthetic prisms distill into an individualized, articulate consciousness -- it is impossible, not to mention foolish and simplistic, to attempt to exhort a moral from the specific circumstances of the narrator, who is not a cardboard martyr and who doesn't stand for anyon...

- The Symbolic Briefcase in Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man The narrator of Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man is the victim of his own naiveté. Throughout the novel he trusts that various people and groups are helping him when in reality they are using him for their own benefit. They give him the illusion that he is useful and important, all the while running him in circles.

The same yesterday, today and forever – except for the fallible phase
Following some links through from Bilbo's blog there's yet another discussion about the limitations of Jesus's human existence here. I've touched a little bit on the "fallibility" of Jesus here and here because it seems to be a growing assumption amongst "post-evangelicals" that Jesus sometimes got things wrong. Firstly it follows from kenotic models of the incarnation – in which Jesus empties himself of his divinity to enter our world (which I hope I've dealt with in the second of my linked posts above), and secondly, as the first link shows, it's projected from general principles – in this case from (over)interpreting the Chalcedonian definition – if Jesus is like … Continue reading

A well-designed home has what architects call "flow." Oahu is the ease with which you can move from room to room. It may seem just like a little thing (and possibly even a little like architecture mumbo-jumbo), but flow really affects the manner in which you live in your 17 House Plans with Outdoor Living Space. Think about it: if your guests need to walk up a journey of stairs and down an area to utilize the bathroom, could that affect entertaining? If your master bedroom is really close to the front of the home that you hear every noise on the road, does it be as relaxing? How can you, your household and your guests maneuver around and live at home? It's an indisputable fact that definitely requires some thought.
Most people enjoy an open concept home, and you will want to? These houses are perfect for entertaining and just the right mixture of bright and casual. But while you're designing an open concept space, take care that you don't forget to define spaces altogether. When spaces are left undefined, the result can seem messy and make you with areas which are underutilized.

Unsafe Drinking/Bathing Water in Pennsylvania PrisonsAt SCI-Mahanoy, prisoners are allowed only three small cups of clean water throughout to day to drink with meals. This is about one-eighth of the daily water intake recommended by health professionals. This water crisis is a hazard to the health and safety of all Pennsylvania prisoners. It is particularly dangerous for those prisoners living with already existing, untreated health problems. More than 6,000 prisoners in the state have been diagnosed with Hepatitis C, yet have been refused treatment by the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections. Please call: John Wetzel Department of Corrections Secretary 717-728-4109 Tom Wolfe Governor of Pennsylvania 717-787-2500 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (EPA) 800-438-2474 Talking Points • There are reports of visibly brown, smelly water that is undrinkable at SCI-Mahanoy and SCI-Frackville. • This water crisis is a hazard to the health and safety of all PA prisoners.

Summer Heat Serves Texas Prisoners an Early Death SentenceIn the recent summer months, an unreleased number of heat-related deaths have taken place throughout Texas state prisons. With internal temperatures reportedly reaching up to 140 degrees on some days and only 30 of the 109 Texas state prisons having facility-wide air-conditioning, a number of incarcerated men and women have died by means of heat stroke, asthma attacks, extreme dehydration, and various other heat-related illnesses. "Prisoners look upon the summer months in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) with dread and trepidation. For one is acutely aware that one may not survive another summer. Many do not." -- Benny Hernandez, Price Daniel Unit, Dallas, Texas The Texas Department of Criminal Justice houses more than 146,000 inmates and is currently in the middle of a lawsuit over what many prisoners and prison activists have described as "deadly heat" in its facilities. Instead of making plans to install central-air systems inside of the prisons, TDCJ officials have taken steps to minimize costs and accountability by placing fans in common areas and increasing ice distribution throughout the day. "Prison guards are suffering also. They too are exposed to the deadly extreme heat, which causes tension and conflict between guards and inmates." -- Keith "Malik" Washington, H. H. Coffield Unit, Tennessee Colony, Texas At the Wallace Pack Unit in Navasota, Texas, prisoners have to choose between drinking water contaminated with dangerous levels of arsenic or becoming dehydrated because of the extreme summer heat. Despite widespread knowledge of the cancer-causing pollutants, prison officials have continued to encourage inmates to drink at least two gallons a day. Those who are aware of the dangerous water situation try their best to drink bottled water only, when available at commissary. "It routinely feels as if one's sitting in a convection oven being slowly cooked alive." -- Benny Hernandez, Price Daniel Unit, Dallas, Texas This attitude of reckless indifference exhibited by prison authorities and Texas officials is a violation of basic human rights as well as the 8th constitutional amendment, which prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. Sign this petition demanding that the Texas Department of Criminal Justice immediately enforce the guidelines of the Texas Prisoners' Civil Rights Manual by implementing air-conditioning systems throughout all housing units in Texas state prisons and enforcing maximum temperature guidelines.

Prisoners in Namibia Need Water -- And You Can HelpContinuous efforts to cut back on water waste has turned into a political battle over water access in Namibia's Windhoek Central Prison, located near the center of the sub-Saharan desert. In late 2015, experts discovered multiple underground pipe-leaks throughout the prison's water system. About 70% of the water traveling through the prison each day is wasted due to these pipe-leaks. The Windhoek city government is traditionally responsible for paying for water services at the prison. Since the discovery of the underground pipe-leaks, the Windhoek city government has repeatedly asked the Namibian Correctional Service to fix the pipes at Windhoek Central Prison. Namibian prison officials, however, claim that there are no funds to do so. The city government has since limited the amount of water routed to Windhoek Central Prison, and on one occasion, completely shut off the prison's water supply until forced by the municipal court to turn it back on. Still, no resolution or plan of action has been made by city or prison officials. In reality, the only people physically affected by this petty political battle are the 3,500 Namibian prisoners who are in constant fear of waking up to no water. You can help them by signing this petition.2,243 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Jamani M.

North Carolina Body Cam Law Breaches Trust and Transparency in Local CommunitiesLast month, North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory signed House Bill 972 into law, officially restricting public access to voice and video footage from police dash and body cameras. The new law states that access to police camera footage is to be restricted to local police departments and court officials. According to the law, if anyone outside of that realm wants access to footage of community interactions with law enforcement via dash or body cam (including the families of those affected), they would need to obtain either approval from the local Police Department Chief or a superior court order from a state judge. Among other quirks, the law also includes the implementation of a "Blue Alert" signal, modeled after the commonly used "Amber Alert," used via smartphone to warn police officers about suspects who have harmed or killed cops. In 2015, the Obama administration provided $20 million to local police departments across the country -- to be used strictly for police dash and body cameras, technologies of accountability requested by the ACLU and Black Lives Matter activists in the wake of protests against police brutality and the killings of Mike Brown, Freddie Gray, Walter Scott and more. In recent months, round-the-clock police surveillance has raised awareness about normalized acts of racial profiling and police brutality in local communities, and has forced law enforcement officers to be responsible with their power and accountable for their actions. The implementation of police body cams is arguably the greatest on-the-ground achievement of anti-police brutality groups like CopWatch and Black Lives Matter activists. The purpose of police body cameras is to create trust and transparency between law enforcement officers and the communities in which they patrol. Citizens feel safer when they know that others are watching, or at least soon will be, if they were to be attacked, abused, or at worst, murdered. Law enforcement officers have relied on and credited the efficiency of body cameras as well, in cases where they were falsely accused of excessive force or police brutality and dash/body cameras proved their innocence. The transparency provided by body cameras has overall helped improve community relations with police officials. North Carolina is not the only state to restrict body cam footage from public access. Florida, Oregon, Illinois, Georgia, South Carolina and a few other states have restrictions on police footage as well. What makes North Carolina's policy uniquely harsh, however, is its restriction of both video and sound from dash and body cameras, as opposed to other states that ban public access to police video footage but not sound recordings. The law is also novel in that it restricts footage access not just from the public, but also from the families of those affected. The implementation of NC House Bill 972 is a bold act of anti-transparency by North Carolina legislators. NC's harsh law on dash and body cam access has serious implications and raises questions about why legislators are so adamant about "protecting" law enforcement officers from their own sound and video footage. It can take up to months to be granted a superior court order for the release of police sound and video footage -- leaving time and space for false accusations and possible illegal editing on behalf of officials. The passing of this legislation also raises a critical question in minority communities: If we can no longer rely on police footage as a defense or as evidence of innocence, should we be filming ourselves? We have seen local communities' reaction to city officials withholding police camera footage, in cities like Charleston, SC and Chicago, IL. Most notably, we remember the killing of 16-year old Laquan McDonald, who was repeatedly shot 16 times while lying on the ground, as revealed by later-released camera footage. Chicago natives and residents protested for days in response to mayor Rahm Emanuel's deliberate withholding of the video. NC Governor McCrory insists that recordings of police interactions with the community can "mislead and misinform the public...while work[ing] against police officers." On the other hand, members of local minority communities fear that without the immediate release of these recordings (to their families or otherwise), police officials have the ability to manipulate both their version of the story and any voice/video evidence. At the very least, police footage should be available to the families affected by the incident, and audio recordings should be available for public access, as it is in other anti-transparency states like Florida. North Carolina's new body cam law is a direct blow to the efforts of BLM activists as well as to the trust of both citizens and police officers who relied on the immediate release of body cam footage to clear their name of media criticism. We must reverse this miscarriage of justice, sooner rather than later, before a domino effect begins to take place in surrounding states. The law goes into effect on October 1st, 2016.5,790 of 6,000 SignaturesCreated by Jamani M.
Drop Charges Against Ramsey Orta, Videographer of Eric Garner's Killing by the NYPD."What I saw that day was [the] NYPD murder my friend. [That's] what inspired me to take the video, because I have past videos of NYPD abusing their power with people I associate with." --Ramsey Orta On July 17th, 2014, 22-year-old New York native Ramsey Orta recorded a video that shook the nation -- the killing of husband, father and street vendor Eric Garner by plainclothes Staten Island police officer, Daniel Pantaleo. The gruesome phone-recorded video, in which Eric Garner repeatedly pleads "Stop, I can't breathe" before losing consciousness, went viral in a matter of hours and helped spark the first wave of Black Lives Matter protests in major cities like NYC, Ferguson MO and Baltimore MD. Currently, videographer Ramsey Orta awaits a four year-minimum sentence in Rikers Island for unrelated charges, which he describes as "retribution" and a "set -up" by the New York City Police Department for his involvement with the Eric Garner case. He must turn himself in by October 2016. "Sometimes I regret just not minding my business, because it just put me in a messed-up predicament." --Ramsey Orta Since the video recording of Eric Garner's death, Ramsey Orta has been arrested on three separate occasions. The first, for criminal possession of a handgun that he allegedly tried to give a 17-year-old, came a day after Garner's death was ruled a homicide by the city's medical examiner. Then, in February of 2015, Orta was arrested in a house raid, along with his girlfriend, brother, elderly mother. Orta was charged with multiple counts of heroin possession and distribution. Most recently, he was accused of selling MDMA to an undercover cop. A lab test later showed that the alleged MDMA was fake and the charges were reduced. Throughout the entire process, Orta has maintained his innocence. Ramsey Orta's case has gained nation-wide attention as a result of his widely publicized hunger-strike while in Rikers Prison. Ramsey claimed that his prison food contained rat poison, and for a month, refused to eat anything that did not come directly out of his commissary. Prison activists and Black Lives Matter supporters regularly sent food to his commissary and made financial donations that eventually led to his release by bond. "I was in Rikers two separate times, one for 60 days and one for 30 days, I believe. And the 60-day stay was the time that I went on the hunger strike." --Ramsey Orta Since his release, Ramsey Orta has helped to organize a grassroots nationwide initiative to hold law enforcement accountable for their actions: CopWatch. The CopWatch team has members all over the country from Staten Island to Compton, and their goal is to remain vigilant of law enforcement mistreatment and hold incompetent officers accountable for their abuse of power and authority in vulnerable communities. "I think CopWatch is something good and something people can learn from. It can strengthen communities." --Ramsey Orta While Eric Garner's family mourns his tragic death and Ramsey Orta's family prepares for his lengthy absence, NYPD police officer Daniel Pantaleo, Garner's killer, gets to keep both his badge and his freedom. Ramsey Orta should not be punished for being a responsible citizen. He is a witness to police lethal force and should be protected under the law, not sentenced. Sign this petition to drop all charges against New York hero Ramsey Orta, who filmed the killing of Eric Garner by NYPD.9,475 of 10,000 SignaturesCreated by Jamani M.
"I'll vote for Jill if you will" pledge campaign to elect Jill Stein president.Vast numbers of voters are frustrated and angry! It's come down to Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump? These are the two most unpopular candidates in the history of presidential elections. Of course, there is an excellent alternative. But understandably voters are afraid of "throwing their vote away". Here's the solution: We join together in a person-to-person pledge campaign, the "I'll vote for Jill if you will" initiative, supporting the presidential bid of Dr. Jill Stein. Together we'll elect the first female President of the United States, one who will do a great job of putting America back on track. Here's how . . . Step 1: When you take the "I'll vote for Jill if you will" personal pledge alone or with a friend, neighbor, relative, you let us know by officially signing the pledge at this site. Step 2: You find two other people who you respect and trust, let them know about Jill Stein if they don't already, get them to take the "I'll vote for Jill if you will" pledge, and make sure they let us know by coming here to sign the pledge. Step 3: They likewise will each find two others to take the pledge and come here to add to the growing list of pledge takers. Step 4: When and only when we reach our target of 50 million pledges, we will vote for Jill Stein. Why 50 million? Because 50 million voters will guarantee a victory by plurality for Jill Stein, thus we will all know with absolute certainty we're not throwing our votes away, that indeed our votes will go toward electing a great president! 50 million may seem like an impossible goal. But it's all in the math. If one person tells two about this tomorrow, then the following day those two each tell two more, and so on and so on, how many days does it take to get to 50 million? The answer might surprise you. 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 … believe it or not, in ONLY 27 DAYS we will have 67,108,864 pledges! (Go to http://50-million-signatures.us/50-million/do-the-math/) It's the power of numbers! It's the power of people! It's the power of joining together and saying NO MORE LESSER EVIL VOTING! Remember, there's nothing at risk here. We honor the "I'll vote for Jill if you will" pledge when we get to our goal. On the other hand, there's a lot at stake . . . a better America for ourselves and our children! It's up to you. Take the pledge. Let us know. Then have two others take the pledge. Make sure they let us know too. Sorry, Hillary and Donald. The people will have spoken. We intend to celebrate Dr. Jill Stein as the 45th President of the United States!451 of 500 SignaturesCreated by John R.
Please Pardon Don Siegelman!This petition is more than just one man's freedom. It is about American freedom. If this can happen to one man, it can happen to anyone. 113 former state Attorneys General (Democrats, Republicans, and Independents), the nation's most preeminent law professors, and concerned citizens say this case is erroneous and Don Siegelman never committed a crime. The New York Times, The Washington Post, MSNBC, CBS, Harper's, Time Magazine, The American Trial Lawyers, Huffington Post, and The Guardian have published serious concerns about this conviction. Even Fox Business News sympathized with Don Siegelman. Pace Law Professor Bennett Gershman called Don Siegelman's case "one of the most egregiously bad faith prosecutions by the Justice Department ever." CBS' 60 Minutes reported that the prosecution team coached key witness Nick Bailey more than 70 times and offered him a deal to testify against Don Siegelman. Several whistleblowers have come forward disclosing Karl Rove's involvement in railroading Don Siegelman and the unethical use of Republican party affiliates to collaborate and convict Don Siegelman of a crime he never committed. Please join me in asking President Barack Obama to pardon Don Siegelman by signing the petition on RootsAction and sharing this message publicly however you can. By doing so we may one day clarify the law and keep our democracy and freedom intact.

Raise the Qualifications for Prison Guards NationwideBehind prison walls, there are thousands of everyday incidents that convey explicit power-conflicts between prisoners and correction officers, both in state and private prisons. Though these conflicts are, at-large, a result of a conditioned hostile environment, they are also the result of a general lack of education, training, experience, and respect toward the people serving their time in prison. Incidents of violent assault are common. In a Mississippi state prison, a female warden was punched in the face by a male prisoner twice her age and size after she "disrespected, disciplined and made an example of him" in front of other inmates. Rape too, is a prison epidemic that we are too familiar with. At Rikers Prison in New York, a female prisoner was gang raped by two male guards who were responsible for escorting her to the bathroom. Though both correctional officers were fired, neither was charged. What we do not hear about are the hundreds of lives taken each year, both guards and prisoners, as a result of power-conflicts. More often than not, prison guards undergo inadequate C.O. training, have minimal educational attainment, and in many states, are able to jump into the field as early as 18 years old. In addition, not all, but very many prison guards are both physically and psychologically unprepared for the job. In Georgia, educational programs,` in partnership with colleges and universities are being implemented in prisons state-wide. Prisons have allowed these programs, on the condition that courses and scholarship funds are available for the correctional officers as well. Georgia prison officials feared that their officers, mostly high-school educated, would react hostilely to inmates being able to take college courses. In state prisons all over the country, C.O.s make everyday decisions that affect the long-term lives of those imprisoned. Correctional officers need specialized training, with an emphasis on conflict resolution, instead of combat and coercion. They need to be educated to understand the psychological condition of the prisoners they care after. They need to be educated to a point where neither anger nor resentment arises from witnessing an inmate take a beginning level college course. Power-abuse is never acceptable. No human being deserves to be stripped of their identity, humanity, or life due to power-conflicts rooted in lack of education, mental instability and inadequate training and experience. If we are going to use correctional institutions as the primary punishment for those who break the law, we need to invest more into our correctional officers, by raising the C.O. qualifications nation-wide. Sign this petition demanding that state legislators and Department of Corrections Commissioners raise the qualifications for Correctional Officers nationwide. 1. Prison guards should have at least some level of college education. 2. Prison guards should be at least 25 years of age. 3. Prison guards should have yearly background checks and psychological evaluations.6,674 of 7,000 SignaturesCreated by Jamani M.

SCOTUS Grant 16 NEW Questions on Mass Incarceration and Public Servant AccountabilityHi! My name is Kimberly Spence, mother to eight-year-old Spencer. Like you, I want to protect the best interest of children and families. That's why I currently have 16 NEW intervening questions before the U.S. Supreme Court pertaining to Mass Incarceration, Public Servant Accountability, Judicial Reform, the Best Interest of a child and ensuring access to inalienable Constitutional Rights, life, liberty, freedom, justice and equality for all citizens of the United States of America. The U.S. Supreme Court ONLY Dockets cases that have proven Constitutional Violations (Michael Duggan, Clerk already acknowledged that the cases are not meritless) and the Court is MANDATED to Rule on cases involving Constitutional Violations when two or more States file cases. However, the U.S. Supreme Court Justices will only grant the hearing of the 16 NEW Questions and / or decide to rule on the cases during their PRIVATE CONFERENCE ON JUNE 2, 2016 if We the People create enough demand or awareness surrounding the need to provide access to inalienable Constitutional Rights for all citizens.

Whether the State of Georgia, North Carolina and all other states should automatically mandate the video or audio recording of court proceedings; as well as the take-down, transcription and release of all recordings and transcriptions, without the requirement of litigant(s) request for release of court proceedings, and at no cost to the litigant(s)… 3. Whether the State of Georgia, North Carolina or any other state should have the right to require citizens of this great nation to forego any of their inalienable constitutional rights, including their constitutional right to refuse to be psychologically evaluated… 4.

Whether the state of Georgia, North Carolina, Montana and all other States should automatically mandate the full restoration of any and all inalienable Constitutional Rights; including their right to Vote, within one months' time of their date of release from jail, prison, court mandated programs or captivity, as these intervening tactics will undoubtedly provide citizens with access to their inalienable Constitutional Rights. 14. Whether the State of Georgia, North Carolina, Montana and all other States should mandate free ankle monitoring and probation services as an alternative to fines or imprisonment; including any and all non-violent Felony's, as these intervening tactics will undoubtedly provide citizens with access to their inalienable Constitutional Rights. 15. Whether officers of the court, state employees, contractors, businesses and State entities who have profited from historically oppressive systems should share in the cost of restitution or reparations for citizens of the United States of America who have been deprived or denied access to their inalienable Constitutional Rights as a community, or due to legal errors; with the use of Frivolous Error Fees designed to offset the growing cost of fraudulent arrests and incarcerations on tax payers in the state of Georgia, North Carolina, Montana and all other States, as these intervening tactics will undoubtedly provide citizens with access to their inalienable Constitutional Rights.

Chancellor et al. (109) compared VEDs with papaverine injections in 18 males with SCI. The injections and pumps were equally effective in inducing erections and no adverse effects from the treatments were reported. Treatment arms were crossed over, subsequently seven men chose the VED and seven men chose the papavarine highlighting equal efficacy in this population. In another treatment arm topical minoxidil was applied without any effective erections achieved by the study subjects.
When aroused, stimulated nerves supplying the penis release chemicals that cause the muscle that surrounds blood vessels in the penis to relax. As the blood vessels relax, there is an increase in blood coming into the penis. This blood fills the spaces in the corpora cavernosa, allowing each of the corpora to expand. As the corpora expand, the veins that drain blood out of the penis are compressed against the tunica albuginea. Compression of the veins prevents blood from leaving the penis and results in a fully rigid penis. When the stimulation/arousal subsides, there is a decrease in the chemicals from the nerves, the muscle around the arteries tightens, decreasing inflow of blood, resulting in a lack of compression of the veins and the drainage of blood out of the penis.
Traditionally, erectile impotence (the classical definition of impotence) is the failure to achieve penile erection during intercourse. It may have either physical or psychological causes. Alcoholism, endocrine disease, and neurological disorders are typical physical causes. Psychological causes include anxiety over performance, hostility or other negative feelings toward the sexual partner, and stress, anxiety, depression, or other emotional conflicts outside of the relationship. Erectile impotence occasionally occurs with age and, although attributed by the individual to the aging process itself, it is usually secondary to disorders of aging, such as faulty blood circulation or prostate disease. In cases of impotence caused by blood vessel dysfunction, an insufficient supply of blood flows into the penis, or the blood diffuses out into adjacent tissues.
If PDE-5 inhibitors are not suitable or don't work, other therapies include injections into the base of the penis, which cause flow of blood into the penis and a fairly immediate erection that lasts around an hour. The drugs injected are alprostadil (Caverject and Erectile dysfunctionex) and Invicorp (VIP and phentolamine). Alprostadil may also be inserted as a gel into the opening of the penis. This is not suitable if your partner is pregnant.
The surgery for placement of a penile prosthesis is typically an outpatient surgery. Doctors often perform a penile prosthesis through a single incision, and all of the components are hidden under the skin. Health care professionals often give patients antibiotics at the time of surgery and often after the surgery to decrease the risk of developing an infection. Depending on your health history, a health care provider may leave a catheter in your penis to drain your bladder overnight.
Effective treatment for erectile dysfunction is available, and for most men will allow the return to a fulfilling sex life. The side effects of the treatment for erectile dysfunction vary depending on the treatment that is used. Some may interrupt the spontaneity of sexual activity. For example, PDE-5 inhibitors typically need to be taken one hour before sex. Side effects may include headaches, indigestion, vasodilation, diarrhoea and blue tinge to vision. Other treatments such as penile injections may cause pain at the injection site, or an erection that will not go down. Treatment options need to be carefully discussed with your doctor to determine which one is best suited to you.
A vacuum erection device is a plastic tube that slips over the penis, making a seal with the skin of the body. A pump at the other end of the tube makes a low-pressure vacuum around the erectile tissue, which results in an erection. An elastic ring is then slipped onto the base of the penis. This holds the blood in the penis (and keeps it hard) for up to 30 minutes. With proper training, 75 out of 100 men can get a working erection using a vacuum erection device.

Diego threw himself out of the fifth floor window at the family home in Villaverde on October 14th after complaining that he was unhappy at school.

But before he leapt to his death, the tormented youngster penned an anguished goodbye and left it next to the teddy he had had since babyhood.

"Daddy, Mummy…I hope that one day you will be able to hate me a little less. I can't stand going to school and there is no other way to avoid it," the boy wrote in the letter published on Wednesday in Spain's El Mundo newspaper.

Diego dejó escrito antes de suicidarse: "No aguanto ir al colegio". Tenía 11 años https://t.co/Rc6Kj2NtQl pic.twitter.com/oiADVFvMwo
— El Mundo Madrid (@ElMundo_Madrid) January 20, 2016

He continued with a message to each of his family members.

"Dad, you taught me to be a good person and to keep promises…Mum, you have taken care of me very well and shown me a lot of places…Grandpa, you have always been very generous to me and have looked out for me."

And to his sister he wrote: "Tata, you have put up with a lot from me".

Now his devastated parents have chosen to make public his final goodbye in an attempt to persuade authorities to launch a full probe into their son's death.

They complain that the case has been shelved without allegations that their son was bullied to the point of despair being properly investigated.

The parents, Manuel and Carmen have appealed to the regional government of Madrid and the department of education to launch a full probe at the Nuestra Señora de los Ángeles school where their son was a student.

ION Jackets If you want to get stuck in to some serious backcountry exploration this winter then you need a kite that is easy to use, quick to pack up, and offers immediate depower if conditions get sketchy. The PEAK4 ticks all of those boxes, plus Flysurfer's unique Single-Skin concept brings the weight and pack size right down so you can easily pack two or three PEAKs for your mission… Not 100% sold on the hard shell harness options? Want a harness that is super stiff but not completely 'locked in'? Then Mystic would point you in the direction of their Majestic. It has stiff horizontal support but is still able to twist and flex around your body for maximum freedom of movement. The best of both worlds? Pretty much… Whether you're teaching lessons, determined to manage a three session day even in winter, or just want a bombproof option if the weather comes in while you're out walking the dog, these jackets can be worn in or out of the water and provide that all-important extra layer to keep your core temp up where it should be… Pictured here, the Neo Shelter Jacket Amp and the Neo Cosy Coat Core Women. TheKiteMag.com 4. Ride Hooded Engine APOC If you're starting to feel the fear when the wind is in but the temperature is dropping then you probably need to find yourself some top end neoprene. The APOC is as good as it gets with its hood, fleece lining and liquid rubber seams keeping your body heat in and the cold water out.

Spoof snapper Alison Jackson in £14million trust fund row
Legal fight: Spoof photographer Alison Jackson is seeking a High Court order to remove the trustees of her trust fund and replace them
With her spoof images of David Beckham and Prince Harry in the nude, the Queen in bed with her corgis and baby Prince George being breastfed by a lookalike Duchess of Cambridge, the photographer Alison Jackson has amused and shocked in equal measures.
But Alison, who won a Bafta for her BBC programme Doubletake in 2002, is having to step away from the camera — temporarily at least.
For in addition to her art, Alison, 53, is also a beneficiary of a family trust fund set up by her late father, Bentley-loving eccentric landowner George Hulbert Mowbray-Jackson. Her elder brother Julian, 56, is also a beneficiary.
Unfortunately, however, Alison has lost confidence in the two men appointed as trustees of her estate.
So much so that she is seeking a High Court order to remove them and replace them with 'such fit and proper persons' as it decides.
She is also asking for more than £500,000 from her trust fund that she says hasn't been paid to her, even though the land owned by the trust was valued eight years ago at £13.87 million and the trustees have cash in hand of at least £556,000 'without any obvious justification'.
The writ also claims that she was forced to sell her house three years ago.
And Chelsea-based Alison complains that her widower brother, who lives at Poulton Priory near Cirencester, has benefited more than her from the trust, which was set up by their father in 1972.
This was the year her father's idyllic life as the owner of his family's late Georgian estate in Hampshire was shattered when he received a compulsory purchase order because the government wanted to build the M27 through his parkland.
Alison was at boarding school at the time and, as she subsequently revealed: 'He was so upset that he arranged to have the house burnt down.'
The family then moved to an equally impressive Gloucestershire mansion, originally a 11th-century monastery, complete with its own chapels and a network of secret tunnels.
It is now part of the property portfolio of multi-millionaire former Labour minister Shaun Woodward.
Of the forthcoming High Court action, one of the trustees tells me: 'I never comment on anything to do with my professional career. I leave that to the judge.'
Amusing and shocking in equal measure: One of Ms Jackson's spoof photos of the Cambridges
Mane attraction? Inbetweeners actress Emily Atack
Most young women dream of possessing such long, lustrous locks, but for Inbetweeners actress Emily Atack, hers are nothing but a hindrance.
Emily, 23, whose grandmother is a cousin of Sir Paul McCartney, stars in action film Get Lucky alongside Olivier-winning actor Luke Treadaway, but moans that her mane is pigeon-holing her into certain kinds of roles.
'This hair is driving me mad and I'm worried it might forever cast me as the femme fatale,' says Emily, daughter of actress Kate Robbins and TV composer Keith Atack.
'I don't think this overtly sexy image is serving me well any more.'
So the solution, Emily has decided, is to chop it off.
'I want to be treated seriously as an actress, so I'm having all my hair cut off and dyed brown,' she tells me at the launch of rising online broadcasting whizz Jamal Edwards's book at Mayfair's Rose Club.
'I grew up in a showbusiness family and Paul always advised me to be true to myself,' she says.
□ King of quiz shows Nicholas Parsons, 89, has put the kibosh on one famous piece of trivia pertaining to himself.
It is often said that the Just A Minute presenter's father delivered in to the world the baby Margaret Roberts — later to become Margaret Thatcher. Parsons, however, isn't so sure.
The elevation of Lib Dem-supporting Rumi Verjee to the House of Lords will have been noted at Clarence House, where the entrepreneur, who was cleared of making 'hidden donations' to the party, is held in high regard. The reason? His snooty Mayfair bone china company, Thomas Goode, provided the princely crockery at Highgrove. The terms were overseen by the Prince's former aide Michael Fawcett. Pizza tycoon Lord Verjee is something of a fan of the well-born. When alerted that the Aga Khan was in his store, he rushed to South Audley Street to serve him personally.
Speaking from the Edinburgh Festival, where he is doing his one-man show for the 13th consecutive year, he says: 'I don't think it's true, but I don't know. My father was the doctor to the Roberts' family, but I don't know anything more as he was far too discreet to say something like that.
'I met Mrs Thatcher and mentioned my father, but I don't know whether she remembered because she was very young at the time.'
Parsons was a great admirer of the Iron Lady. 'I didn't agree with all her policies, but she was an incredible woman. She's a credit to her country, a credit to her sex,' he says.
'You can disagree with someone's policies or opinions, but you can still have huge respect for their talent and ability.'
Two years ago, Grant Harrold was a £24,000-a-year under-butler working for Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall at Highgrove, until he lost his job. Now Grant, 35, is set for a new career as a TV star.
'It's all hush-hush, but producers are trying me out for some new shows — I've already been mistaken for Paul Burrell,' he trills.
Grant was devastated to lose his job, but he later received compensation in an out-of-court settlement. 'Life has moved on and I've done two pilots for TV. I've been told the world's my oyster,' he tells me.
'I could go to America, but I will never be disloyal. I'm keeping my feet on the ground.'
Scots-born Harrold also gives butlering lessons at £1,200 for a three-day course, as well as running etiquette classes with Princess Katarina of Yugoslavia. 'I have to travel to London on the train because you can't really do what I do from a laptop at Highgrove,' says Grant, who still lives there with his partner, who is in royal service.
Ironically, it was Grant's unwillingness to work for Charles and Camilla at Clarence House, their official London residence, that led to him being forced out.

□ Novelist Santa Montefiore has endorsed her faith in spiritualism by dedicating her latest tome, The Secrets Of The Lighthouse, to two friends who have been in touch with her from beyond the grave.
Santa, 42, says: 'They have come through to me a few times together.' The mother of two, who is married to historian Simon Sebag Montefiore, has long had an interest in the spirit world. 'I have always felt spiritually connected to nature,' she says.
'In my 20s, I was developed by a psychic. We all have psychic ability.
'It's more than a belief. I feel that when we die we go home, we don't become dust.'
PS Still recovering from his exploratory abdominal operation in June, the Duke of Edinburgh could be forgiven if he is secretly grateful for missing Cowes Week.
The Royal Yacht Squadron, which counts the Duke as its Admiral, was last night poised to admit female members for the first time in its 198-year history after a ballot at its Isle of Wight base.
The issue is likely to make waves. So male-orientated is the 475-member club — where acceptance to the ranks depends on occupation — that even the Queen was once refused access through the main male-only door, even though she is its patron.
