Skip to comments.Iranian Alert -- August 16, 2003 -- LIVE THREAD PING LIST
Posted on 08/16/2003 12:04:44 AM PDT by DoctorZIn
The regime is working hard to keep the news about the protest movment in Iran from being reported.
From jamming satellite broadcasts, to prohibiting news reporters from covering any demonstrations to shutting down all cell phones and even hiring foreign security to control the population, the regime is doing everything in its power to keep the popular movement from expressing its demand for an end of the regime.
These efforts by the regime, while successful in the short term, do not resolve the fundamental reasons why this regime is crumbling from within.
Iran is a country ready for a regime change. If you follow this thread you will witness, I believe, the transformation of a nation. This daily thread provides a central place where those interested in the events in Iran can find the best news and commentary.
Please continue to join us here, post your news stories and comments to this thread.
Thanks for all the help.
"If you want on or off this Iran ping list, Freepmail me
Iranian folks demonstrated once they're not accepting of that when they threw the Shah overboard. An unstoppable force doesn't necessarily translate to the implementation of a superior system ... but the Clerics are going to have to withdraw into a strictly limited influence platform of religious guidance and authority, or they will be toppled. Iranians have an $1800 per capita GNP, that's an outrage in a nation blessed with the most prolific oil, mineral and geographically resourced potential for prosperity of ANY state in that region.
We need to talk sense to the theocrats, help them see that their secure world bordering Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, the former Soviet republics and Turkey is gone forever. There's no more smuggled oil from Iraq and the U.N. There's no more express lanes across Iraq to Syria with terrorists and weapons, and we should make sure the black market trading funnel of Poppy/Opium from Afghans to Iraq to Turkey directly or through former Soviet states is OVER as well.
The jig is up. The threat from Hussein can no longer be employed to discipline the masses. There's no more unfettered money, people and resources moving to Syria for positioning against Israel. Pakistan is cleaning house. We're cleaning Afghanistans house. Iraq will have a free Shiite people. There's going to be no Food for Oil booty to support China and North Korea, no black market bankrolll for Hizbollah and Syria's Corrupt Lebanese lackey and to provide sanctuary and state tools to agents of Al Qaida.
There is an incalculably bright destiny for Islam and its devout worshippers, but there's no future for the despots of violence and merchants of murderous terror anymore.
Thanks to all tho pinged me to this thread for the pings ;- )
I'm tired of agenda-obsessed mega extemists here on FR, and within U.S. and Israel press, accusing Ariel Sharon, Israel's greatest warrior lion, of dereliction of his LIFE SWORN loyalty to Israel, her people and his duty in an obsequious appeasement to George W. Bush and the Pali terrorists. They're trying to wound Bush, period.
This Peace process is moving ahead with resolve because the Israeli people and her unimpeachably patriotic leaders and Palestinian leaders of courage and vision are tired of the killing, tired of the fear, tired of the poverty and hate and hopeless futures.
Anyone who empowers George W. Bush with the cynical, reckless power to force Ariel Sharon to pursue a road that will destroy Israel and the miracle of Zion is either ignorant or a corrupt operator.
This is Israel's game. This is the Palestinian's game. We've steamrolled Saddam, we've turned the sweet little world of Iran, Syria, Hizbollah, IJ and Hamas upside down, and we want a peace that is enduring and flourishing and prosperous for Israelis and Palestinians.
That means a Palestinian State. That means a recognition and negotiation with a former PLO enemy. That means accomodation, that means consensus and that will eventually mean a life where a 13 year old Israeli student and a 13 year old Palestinian student can look forward to a life of security, prosperity and dutiful worship and a long life blessed by God.
I'm sick of this "State Department this, George Bush that" .... this is a tough journey that will require resolve and courage under seige from Islamist Terrorists and Pyrrhic End of Times Masada-fantasizing extremists. Mostly here on FR, we've got a slew of people who love seeing others go down in a blaze of principled display. That guy over there, he should make a principled last stand.
This thing may or may not work, but both the Israeli and Pali parties are invested, empowered and ultimately the shepherd of their own destinies. We're providing political cover, bolstering the power base of the Sharon government and the PA as necessary, it's posturing and gaining support and neutralizing parties bent on the sabotage of peace. There has never been a time more ripe for a lasting peace in that small tract of land.
When the Wahabbi fascists within their family, and within their borders, become more of a threat to their survival than an asset to securing their throne, they'll conduct a purge that will make Stalin look like a procrastinating Quaker.
That time is near.
It'll make the real solution far less bloody and painful to impliment - for the Arab world. The solution is an end to the Islamist dream of ruling the world under the banner of the Khalifah through basic freedoms like freedom of speech, freedom of peaceful assembly and freedom of self determination in the persuit of life, liberty and happiness.
The roadmap, when implimented, will be a light of hope for oppressed people and a continued warning to tyrants of all stripes.
For most of the West, the reality which will come to pass will be yet another painful awakening from many ingrained, cherished dreams.
Remember that even if this succeeds, there will be a few diehard bloodlusters who are afraid and unable to change and will continue to murder innocent people. They'll be easier to catch though.
Yep. Sadly, it's going to take more innocent deaths to shake them up enough to really act.
The Palestinian Authority is the only entity that can root out Hamas and the other criminal killers lurking in the 'hood. The Israelis can never identify, locate and arrest or kill the bad guys. Impossible. As we Americans, in Baghdad, can never locate all the Baathist and Fedayeen scum going door to door. We need the community to point us to the right doors, and that's happening. It'll happen in the West Bank tenaments too, but it'll be PA security guys taking the garbage out. Or there's no end to the terror.
My sense is that they will observe and calculate the outcome of the 2004 election: if Bush looks vulnerable, they will not move against the terrorists because any of the wraiths in the Democrat primary mix right now would be easily manipulated to retreat to the 1999 status quo.
If Bush is successful in Iraq, if his re-election prospects look likely, the Saudis, like Frank Costello of the NYC Mob in the 40s, will do what's best for business. Luciano was a very useful asset but when his killing became personal, he became a liability, and he ate lead. Bush means business, it's going against George W. Bush or a least favorite brother and 25 other troublemakers and power brokers ... goodbye Bro, the business comes first. Lucky Luciano, Nitti, Siegel, Giancana, Castellano, Jack Ruby, FREDO, Luca Brasi, Ron Brown, Vince Foster ... all were missed after they were killed for valid commercial purposes.
It'll be the same with the Saudis. Prince Naysid may be a good subject for a Dead Pool. How about a boating accident? They'll just kill as many of the Islamist benefactors within their family and borders as necessary to keep their filthy rich/dying of old age lifestyle business alive and send the unmistakable message that there's a new business model in the Kingdom and non-compliance warrants a negative sanction placed in their permanent personnel file, which will be active for approximately 2 hours until they die a slow death by torture and disembowling before a hastily called all-company staff meeting.
Abdullah and the pragmatists haven't been pushed to the brink yet, but I'll guarantee you there is HUGE intrigue and machinations underway in that incestuous cesspool, and the outcomes usually have unhelpful family and citizens dying in violence.
Well said and true.
"The Palestinian Authority is the only entity that can root out Hamas and the other criminal killers lurking in the 'hood. The Israelis can never identify, locate and arrest or kill the bad guys. Impossible. As we Americans, in Baghdad, can never locate all the Baathist and Fedayeen scum going door to door. We need the community to point us to the right doors, and that's happening. It'll happen in the West Bank tenaments too, but it'll be PA security guys taking the garbage out. Or there's no end to the terror"
Also well said and true. Surprisingly few people seem to understand that though. Nor do they understand that of the PA DOESN'T take the garbage out, and there's no end to the terror after Palestine becomes an independent state, there will be hell to pay under international law.
The president is forcing various organizations to suit action to rhetoric in this, and they're aware they line they walk is very fine.
I'm impressed. That is EXACTLY what they're doing. The only support we've really received from the Saudis has been limp wristed and token while they wait out the current election cycle in the hopes of getting another Clintonista back into office. Their investigation following Riyadh has been only to reassure a frightened populace that they're real leaders and will keep them safe. Everything is rhetoric with them, as long as it preserves their hides, and they do not care HOW many innocents are killed as long as it isn't one of the inner circle.
After GW is reelected, their attitude will change temporarily.
People rag here about Colin Powell, how he's watering down our policies and undermining the President. NO WAY. Colin Powell is perfectly in synch with the strategy, tactics and objectives. He has a job, that job is to be a diplomat. President Bush is unhesitant to permit Colin Powell to play the role of the mediating statesman, the adult among cowboys, the sophisticated governing element in a War crazy frathouse.
Bush positions him in that way. Every time Powell is perceived to be at odds with unilateral and forceful American prerogative, he gains standing and negotiating leverage among the State Department lifers (who can't do anything for you, but sure can do bad things TO you) and among the European bon vivants who think his judgements more valid, wise and worthy of support. Powell gets authority and leverage by appearing to be a foil to Bush to the 5th Column State Department functionaries and the International Diplomatic community. But, Powell works with Bush, he works FOR Bush, and he is an advisor and a dutiful executor of President Bush's directives. No doubt in my mind.
Bush does this constantly. From day one of his tenure till 9/11, he worked to bolster the credibility of Vincente Fox in his hostile and tenuous political position in Mexican politics. He wanted Fox to look independent, strong and dedicated to Mexico's autonomy and national interests. Bush did it to strengthen a critically vital ally and neighbor at a seminal time in their history. People here went nutzoid that Bush was selling out the USA to the Mexicans, but in reality, we can't address the immigration surge without the partnership of a strong, forceful Mexican leader to attack the Corrupt Federales and State sanctioned LEOs in border States.
Bush likes Fox, IMO. Meeting with him, now, gives Fox no boost because Bush can't play anything but a hardass on Domestic Security issues. Bush likes Putin, he considers Putin a partner, and Putin needs autonomy from the USA to maintain HIS political standing. Guaranteed, however, under the radar, Putin is giving us everything he can. Bush likes Abdullah from Saudi Arabia, he brought him to the Ranch. That was a signal ... Saudis are allies, these guys are helping us. Bush likes and trusts Masharraf. He likes and trusts the leaders of Italy, Jordan, Spain, Australia, Poland, Phillipenes, Indonesia and Colombia. He is whatever Tony Blair needs him to be as long as it doesn't hurt American standing. He understands political imperatives specific to nations, and he wants to make the people he trusts and values secure and strong. He likes Sharon, he trusts Mahmoud Abbas and fully realizes the limitations he is constrained by.
He hates Schroeder, Chirac, Chetrien and the guys running Brazil, Argentina and Egypt. He distrusts the Chinese leadership profoundly. The Scandinavians, excluding the Danes, don't exist.
If Bush meets with a leader, if he invites them here, that guy or gal is our teammate and we'll go to the wall to make them shine as equals to the American President in seriousness, influence and standing.
Bush didn't give McCain ONE bit of limelight on the CFR. He hasn't met with the NAACP or Jesse Jackson or at the request of the Congressional Black Caucus. He's frozen Daschele out of the spotlight he seized after those Congressional/WH breakfasts. He never thought of dumping a staffer for that 16 word non-issue. He sure did dump that turncoat Treasury Secretary, he sure did stiff arm the Army General Staff flotsam left over from the Clinton kindergarten, he won't let Cheney twist in Henry Waxman and Richard Shelby's intestinal gas, when somebody told him there was a big to do because Rumsfeld just called France and Germany "Old Europe", Bush looked up from his papers and said "Good."
Rummy's got unlimited proxy.
I would forward a guess that 80% of all the Muslims living in the Middle East, Indonesia and North Africa just want the same boring stuff we do ... food on the table, a roof over their heads, a safe community and a more enlightened, prosperous life for their kids. 10% of that crowd want to lead their nations into prosperity, and 10% want to return to a 9th Century mirage of a total, pure Islamic governing authority.
The last 10% are bullying their neighbors into the 9th century by murdering and destroying 21st century societies. The first 10% are slowly gaining support and political traction. The other 80% are keeping their heads down, eyes open and keeping all options open.
When I see these guys jumping around on the streets of Cairo, Amman or on the West Bank, I think about going to an office parties that you hate, but need to make a showing for the team player props. You hang around long enough that your presence is noted by the boss, and then sneak out to throw darts and watch a blues band with your pals.

There's shock in the southern Russian city of Volgograd after what appears to have been the second suicide bombing in two days.
Monday morning's blast "tore through an electric bus … killing 14," The Associated Press reports. About 30 other people were wounded.
The carnage follows Sunday's explosion at the city's main train station — a suicide attack that killed at least 17 people. Another 40 or so were injured by that blast.
Near the scene of Monday's bombing, Reuters writes, a woman choked back tears as she spoke: "For the second day, we are dying. It's a nightmare," she said. "What are we supposed to do, just walk now?"
The BBC says that "Maksim Akhmetov, a Russian TV reporter who was at the scene of the blast, said the trolleybus was packed with people going to work in the morning rush hour. He described the scene as 'terrible,' adding that the bus was 'ravaged' and that there were 'bodies everywhere, blood on the snow.' "
Just as after Sunday's explosion, Russian officials are pointing at Chechen rebels who want to create a separate Islamist state in the Caucuses as those who are likely responsible. The AP writes that:
"Officials did not name names and no one has claimed responsibility for either bombing, but they came several months after Chechen rebel leader Doku Umarov threatened new attacks against civilian targets in Russia, including the [upcoming] Olympics in Sochi [about 400 miles away].
"Suicide bombings and other terror attacks have rocked Russia for years, but most recently have been confined to the North Caucasus region. The successive attacks in Volgograd signaled that militants may be using the transportation hub as a renewed way of showing their reach outside their restive region."
The AP also reminds readers that Volgograd, formerly called Stalingrad, also may have been targeted since it "serves as an important symbol of Russian pride because of a historic World War II battle in which the Soviets turned the tide against the Nazis."
On Morning Edition, NPR Moscow correspondent Corey Flintoff said that Umarov has called February's Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, "Satanic dances on the bones of our ancestors. There's actually some history behind that. The alpine events of the Olympics are taking place in an area where the Russian empire declared victory in its conquest of the North Caucuses way back in 1864."
As for security during the Games, Corey said "some security experts are saying that the real danger may lie in other parts of the country — Volgograd could be an example of that."

"Chimala creates its look by pursuing the best fabrics of the highest quality and by obtaining the most sophisticated skills in production from the finest Japanese artisans." …But does that justify a shirt that's $425 and a pair of jeans at $418? Perhaps it does. Each piece is created in Japan by expert denim artisans and "expert tailors", who craft and distress with unique approaches. The name Chimala means "beauty" in Native American tongue, and we can't disagree there. The brand was featured recently in Madewell's Looks We Love feature for denim, and the vintage charm and luxe look of the denim pieces present nearly overwhelms with "I need this for fall". While not everyone can budget in one of these gems, the outfits in these features will give you a heads up for fall styling.

Wolf Prowl - March 17th, 2012

Baumer's boys need to rebound on their coming road trip
(Photo: Chris Jerina/AHL in Photos)
Weekly Wrap
A 3-1 win last Saturday in Charlotte was followed by a 4-0 Sunday loss to those same Checkers. Sunday's loss let Charlotte back on top of the division.
Wednesday was a very frustrating loss for the Crimson and Gold, as they fired 39 shots in a 3-1 loss to Peoria.
Read past the jump for more!
Saturday's win was paced by goals from Darren Haydar, Byron Bitz and Andrew Gordon's game winner. Mike Duco grabbed 3 assists on Saturday, while Haydar added an assist on Bitz's goal. The powerplay showed a brief sign of life - Haydar and Bitz's goals both came on the mad advantage.
Eddie Lack made 42 saves on Sunday.
Mark Mancari got the only goal on Wednesday.
The attack continues to struggle, and especially the young kids. Jordan Schroeder, about whom we'd been speaking so positively, has just a goal and 3 assists in his last dozen games.
Steve Reinprecht hasn't scored a goal since the end of January, a stretch of 16 games. He's got just 6 assists in that time as well.
Lineup Notes
The Wolves signed Ridge Meadows native Brad Hunt to an amateur tryout contract on Wednesday. The 24-year-old Hunt, a defenceman, had a stellar college career for Bemidji State, recording 112 points in 150 games over his 4 years in the WCHA. He made his debut in Wednesday night's game. He took Kevin Connauton's spot in the lineup.
Connauton is listed as day-to-day with some sort of minor leg injury. After Wednesday's game, he was seen in civvies, a bit hobbled, but no crutches or cast. Expect him to sit out this weekend as well.
The Hunting Ahead
Tonight's St Patrick's Day tilt is away at Lake Erie. After the game, the Wolves cross the border and head up to Toronto to take on the Marlies. They head back to Ohio for another game against Lake Erie on Wednesday.

Two big-serving young American women won their first career titles on Saturday in a pair of Wimbledon tune-up events, with 19-year-old Madison Keys completing an impressive run through the draw at the Aegon International in Eastbourne, England, and 22-year-old qualifier CoCo Vandeweghe winning easily at the Topshelf Open in 's-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands.
Keys, who upset world No. 7 Jelena Jankovic in the opening round, edged No. 9 Angelique Kerber in the final, 6-3, 3-6, 7-5. Vandeweghe, meantime, easily defeated Zheng Jie, 6-2, 6-4, in the final after qualifying for the event and posting earlier wins over 2014 French Open quarterfinalist Garbiñe Muguruza and No.8 seed Klara Koukalova.
The dual crowns mark the first time two American women captured tour titles in the same week since 2002, when Venus Williams and Monica Seles won in Antwerp and Doha, respectively.
"I'm so incredibly happy," Keys said afterward, according to WTA.com. "It's one of those things where when you're training and you don't want to be there, you're tired or everything hurts, you think of this moment and it really helps push you through all of the hard times."
The 5-foot-11 Keys hammered 60 winners in the victory, including 17 aces, to offset 48 unforced errors. She also won 14 of 19 points at the net. With the victory, the Illinois native is expected to break into the Top 30 for the first time in her career.
"My serve was definitely a weapon today, and it really helped me the entire time," Keys said. "She raised her level so much in the second set and started playing really well, and I really had to get more aggressive and not be as passive. After that second set I just went for it, and it worked today. I have always loved grass. To win my first title on grass is just an amazing experience."
Vandeweghe expressed similar sentiments after her breakthrough win. The California native had played in one previous WTA final, losing to Serena Williams at the Emirates Airline US Open Series event in Stanford, Calif., in 2012.
On Saturday, she simply overpowered Zheng, winning 27 of 28 points on her first serve and never facing a break point. In all, Vandeweghe finished with 81 aces in seven main draw matches, including 19 in her first-round win over Marina Erakovic.
"I was trying not to think about it being a final today," Vandeweghe said. "I got the first set and I thought to myself, 'One set to the good, one more to go, try and get the early break now and keep the pressure on her.' I was really just thinking about it step by step, just like how I would play in any match."
The two American champions now turn their attention to the start of Wimbledon on Monday. Keys opens against another promising young player, Monica Puig from Puerto Rico, while Vandeweghe gets a rematch with Muguruza, who is seeded No. 27.

North Dakota's Meta-Media Circus Drives Editor Into Retirement
In your finally Friday media column: the internet hordes claim another victim, The National steals stories, a foolproof new plan for online media success, an unappealing headline, and CNET's editor heads to Yahoo.
- Bismarck Tribune editor John Irby gave the following reason for his retirement last month: "I am retiring because I am tired of being the whipping boy, by one and all. My skin has thinned. Life is too short to put up with all the noise." From angry commenters and harsh Bismarck media bloggers! That's why we ban everyone and listen to no one around here, John! Good luck to you, sir.
- Haha: The National, the fancy big money Abu Dhabi paper, has been stone cold stealing stories from Bloomberg, Reuters, and elsewhere! There you have it: USA #1!
- Here is the best way to make money in the internet media now: copy and paste 80% of other people's news stories (including headline and photo!), put it on your blog, and then charge them for the privilege. I am entering this business immediately! Send checks now!
- "Bernie Goldberg and Bill O'Reilly Ask: Was MSNBC's Debate Fair to Republicans?" I challenge you to submit a headline less likely to make you click on a video clip on a Friday afternoon. I challenge you!
- Yahoo has hired CNET editor in chief Scott Ard as its new homepage editor. Ard will now be the man with the god-like power to decide which "Weird News" story the internet's one trillion readers see when they go to check their email for new Nigerian phishing messages. But will the power corrupt him?

Perfect wedding shoe!
"I got these shoes to wear to an outdoor summer wedding. They were a perfect conversation piece and surprisingly comfortable and easy to walk in despite the height."

"Talk about the perfect shoe. I wish I could go back and buy the purple one also. I bought this last minute to wear with a seafoam colored dress and it was perfect. Not really paying attention to the height of the heel or platform until it came in the mail. There was not doubt these were excellent. I hosted an event and wore these standing for over 6 hours and did not have a problem at all. This shoe has me thinking I need to by more shoes like these. Try and you will not be disappointed."

- Shoichi accidently uses a 10 year bazooka shell and sends himself to the future and runs into Byakuran.
- Shoichi doesn't like the future he sees, and tries to change it. This sends him to a different future (a parallel world) where he is a musician and runs into Byakuran again. This causes Byakuran's power to "Awaken".
- Byakuran uses Shoichi to cause a past version of himself to "awaken", thusly giving him more time to carry out his plans quicker.
- A future version of Shoichi sets up a trap to erase a past version of Shoichi's memory, thus making him the ideal spy for Byakuran.
- Future version of Shoichi sends notes back to the past with instructions for his past self to do things, like: a) send Tsuna's Family to the future, b) Attend the same college as Byakuran, etc. To set him up in position to be able to being Byakuran down from inside his organization.
- Future version of Shoichi does this not only to set up the best possible scenario for defeating Byakuran, but because this is the only version of the future that has the power to defeat Byakuran since it is the only version of the future where Tsuna and Shoichi meet accidently... Thus establishing a relationship between the two that leads to the development of the Vongola boxes, and a level of trust with which to base future collaboration in the fight against Byakuran.
- Based on that trust, Future Tsuna uses Shoichi, Hibari and possibly Uni to bring past Tsuna and his family to the future to not only bring the Vongola Rings to the future, but to bring the Tsuna with the fatest growth, most potential and unpredictabiliy* to the future. Therefore he helps Shoichi in coming up with the plan and carrying out Step 5.
- To add to the possibility of success, Future Tsuna fakes his own death. This causes two things: 1. It stops the Millefiore from actively hunting Tsuna in the short term, allowing his past self to grow accustom to the future more gradually. 2. It immediately instills a sense of urgency and danger in his past self that he would not otherwise have had, immediately putting his guard up.
Did that make any sense?
*I think the reason why the Past Tsuna is potentially stronger that the future Tsuna is because he has more to lose, and therefore he will fight more desperately to protect what he has.

You can use any type of tortilla for these quesadillas. Try plain, fat-free, vegetable or herb tortillas to give the quesadillas a different twist.
These are great served as an appetizer, too. Offer them to family or friends as a prelude to an Italian-style meal. Don't forget to warmed marinara or spaghetti sauce for dipping.
You can enjoy the flavors of many cheeses when you use the Italian blend cheese, which can include mozzarella, provolone, Romano, Asiago and Parmesan cheeses.

In a previous blog entry, I revealed that I sometimes like to hug a cardboard cut-out of a certain boy wizard. So it should come as no surprise that I almost fell out of my chair when I heard that Scholastic was going to have the opportunity to interview Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies!
I wasn't going to be doing the interview myself, but I was given the chance to submit some questions — and Tom Felton even said that one of MY questions was something he had never been asked before! When I heard about that, I couldn't have been more pleased with myself than if I were Percy Weasley!
Here was my question:
How long have you been writing and performing music?
And here's what Tom said:
I won't lie. This is the first time an interviewer has asked me about that. A friend of mine, a good musical friend of mine, moved away about a year and a half ago, and she was always very keen to hear new music. And we just figured the best way to do that was to put it onto YouTube — under an alias, obviously. But it didn't stay hidden very long, and now it's very much sort of in the public domain. So it was never really intended to be an advertising spin by any means, but yeah, they are original songs and obviously not sort of developed by any means but just sort of a little early draft, if you will. Just a bit of fun! But it seems to have a positive response, so I'm enjoying it.
Awesome, right? Well, I thought so, anyway . . .
Now, without further ado . . . here's Draco!
Scholastic: What's your opinion of Draco?
Tom: Not a very pleasant one, I assure you. I figure, I think of him as a misled only child who's been slightly bullied into his state of mind, if you will. But in long short, he is a nasty bit of work. A bit of a slimy, troublesome character who's not really up for any good and certainly the benefit of anyone else.
Scholastic: Well, my next question was going to be, "Do you think people misunderstand him?" But I guess you already answered that.
Tom: Well, I suppose, "yes" would be the answer. By the same token, he doesn't do a great job of trying to convince otherwise, does he?
Scholastic: Do your fans ever sort of treat you like Draco? Like a bad boy?
Tom: That's happened, yes, it has happened. Especially with the younger generation — sort of 6 or 7 down, age-wise. They can get rather off put by seeing my face. They seem to associate me with something rather negative, which I can only take as a compliment ,really, I suppose.
Scholastic: Is there any one story or encounter that you remember that involved a fan approaching you as the bad guy?
Tom: Some people take it very seriously how I was making Harry's life not pleasant at school, and they would plead with me not to pick on him. But I don't know if they were taking it to the next level or whether they were actually confused whether it was real life or film — something along those lines. That was a little bit shocking, to be fair. I tried to reassure them that nothing was real, and me and Daniel were quite good friends, but it didn't seem to sink in with them.
Scholastic: You're a big fishing fan. This might sound weird, but are there any similarities between acting and fishing?
Tom: You know what, I never thought so until you asked that question. Patience. Patience is required heavily in fishing and much the same with the film set. Obviously, some days it doesn't go as fast as you would have hoped or you would have expected. But it's all about keeping the energy and keeping the — not only patience — but just to enjoy every minute of it. Because sometimes it can be quite easy to sort of slump back if you have an hour or two to wait and it's important to make the most of the time with the cast and crew while you're still there.
Scholastic: Are there any Draco Malfoy moments from the books that you're disappointed weren't included in the movie?
Tom: No, I wouldn't think so. I mean, I remember reading the book before and thinking, "Oh, lord! This'll be fun! I was especially looking forward to the pool in the bathroom and being able to stamp on young Potter's face on the Hogwarts Express. I was always looking forward to the things of a physical nature. But they all got included, so no let-downs there.
Scholastic: Do you guys have any on-set rituals or traditions when you're filming?
Tom: I wouldn't go as far as any rituals, but I might go as far as to say a cup of tea doesn't really hurt. Right before we get the event proceedings, so to speak. Maybe a cup of tea, maybe a biscuit or two to go with it if it's a Friday. But other than that, no, we certainly don't get in a circle and chant or anything like that.
Scholastic: That's why we Americans adore you Brits!
Tom: Why is that? A cup of tea?
Scholastic: It's so civilized!
Tom: Oh, very much so. We always sort of talk around in the middle of break — we're talking about politics and all the rest of it . . . I'm only joking — far from it! We're quite primitive. We've got our polystyrene cups outside, that sort of thing.
Scholastic: What's the best thing about filming a movie?
Tom: The bond between the cast and crew is always a good one. Each day you're subconsciously getting closer and closer, but you don't realize it until it's time to say goodbye and you think, "Oh, wow. It was only a few weeks ago that I didn't know this person."
Scholastic: Do you have an all-time favorite book that you've read?
Tom: At the moment I'm reading The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin, and for some reason that question sort of blanked my mind on all other types of literature. But as a child I was amazingly
fond of Rudyard Kipling and Roald Dahl . . . Nowadays I wouldn't dare to single it down to one to be fair. We'll go with Shakespeare, how's that?

Please refer to event description for location details
University of North Dakota's campus is about to get a little busier as Summer Orientation sessions will be in full swing from June 5 through July 17.
Summer Orientation sessions are a chance for incoming students to get acclimated to campus and to learn about services and facilities available to them. The sessions will also include an advisement session and course registration.
The Summer Orientation sessions are based on a student's academic major and each session is a one-day program, except for certain majors in the College of Aerospace Sciences that offer a two-day program. Specific session dates also are available. Reservations are available on a first come, first serve basis.
The breakdown of a Summer Orientation session is as follows:

Background Information on the Program Fee:
The Summer Orientation Fee is new and will offset the cost of lunch, refreshments, materials, staffing and other expenses associated with the program. Although the fee is new for first-year UND students attending Summer Orientation, many other universities charge similar fees. Some universities charge these fees directly to students' accounts rather than as part of the program reservation process as UND has chosen to do. The decision to charge the fee as part of the reservation process was made in an effort to be transparent with students and families about the fee and what it covers.
Placement Exams:
Students will only be allowed to take one placement exam during Summer Orientation.
Math Placement: Students are encouraged to take the Computer-adapted Placement Assessment and Support Services (COMPASS) Math Placement Exam prior to attending Summer Orientation. The COMPASS exam will be offered through the UND Testing Center or at various testing sites around the country. The cost of the exam varies by location. Students who do not take the COMPASS exam prior to arriving at Summer Orientation MAY be required to take the exam at Summer Orientation as determined by the Student Success Center (based on ACT Math subscore and major). Phone registration students will be required to take the exam prior to their scheduled appointment.
Language Placement and Credit Exam: The UND Language Placement and Credit Exam is available for students to take at the program if the COMPASS Math Placement Exam was completed prior to their Summer Orientation session or their ACT Math subscore allows them enrollment in their required math course.
Students who do not take the Language Placement and Credit Exam during the Summer Orientation program are able to make arrangements with the Languages Department during the fall semester or at a later time.

Chapter 34
The Second Coming will be a day of vengeance and judgment—The indignation of the Lord will be upon all nations—His sword will fall upon the world.
1 Come near, ye nations, to hear; and hearken, ye people: let the earth hear, and all that is therein; the world, and all things that come forth of it.
2 For the indignation of the Lord is upon all nations, and his fury upon all their armies: he hath utterly destroyed them, he hath delivered them to the slaughter.

The winless Highlanders will be beyond desperate to end a whopping six-match losing streak when they host the Brumbies on Friday.
The winless Highlanders will be beyond desperate to end a whopping six-match losing streak when they host the Brumbies in Dunedin on Friday.
Whilst the struggling Kiwi outfit are out to stop the rot, this trans-Tasman clash is also developing to be a major task for Jake White's men.
Heading into Round Nine, the Brumbies have won only one of their last three matches and are coming off a shock 28-all draw against the Kings.
Despite the draw the Brumbies are equal top with the Chiefs on 29 points, but with big games ahead in the next few weeks against the Reds and Crusaders, Friday's match is crucial.
While the Highlanders – suffering their worst start to a campaign since 2008 – are yet to register a victory and sit last on the Super Rugby table, they still have potential match winners in all positions and are shaping up to be a very difficult opponent for the Australian conference leaders.
Their backline is potentially the Brumbies biggest concern, with All Blacks Ben Smith, Hosea Gear and an out-of-sorts Ma'a Nonu itching to notch up their first win.
Brumbies backs coach Stephen Larkham is well aware of the threat the New Zealand side poses, having played against them on numerous occasions, but is confident that his backline will do the job.
"They are a good side and you look at the games they have played, they have played some really good sides and they have only just lost everyone of those encounters," said Larkham.
"They have definitely got a star studded backline and they use it very well, their combination of backline and forward play is quite good.
"We are really focusing on ourselves though and on getting our game in check, I guess against the Bulls and Kings we haven't executed as well as we would of liked. So both sides have a lot to play for."
It will be the first time the Brumbies, who have not beaten the Highlanders in New Zealand since 2009, have played in Forsyth Barr Stadium – a 30,000-seat venue the ACT government is proposing to model a rectangular stadium on in Canberra.
Prediction: Despite their six losses, the Highlanders have slowly been getting better. The Brumbies on the other hand have only suffered one defeat but their last two outings were not up to scratch, and were lucky to escape with a win and a draw. Tough call, but we think it will be seventh heaven for the Highlanders! (They won't care by how many points)
The teams:
Highlanders: 15 Ben Smith, 14 Kade Poki, 13 Phil Burleigh, 12 Ma'a Nonu, 11 Hosea Gear, 10 Hayden Parker, 9 Fumiaki Tanaka, 8 Mose Tuiali'i, 7 John Hardie, 6 TJ Ioane, 5 Jarrad Hoeata, 4 Brad Thorn, 3 Ma'afu Fia, 2 Andrew Hore (c), 1 Jamie Mackintosh.
Replacements: 16 Liam Coltman, 17 Chris King, 18 Josh Bekhuis, 19 Elliot Dixon, 20 Aaron Smith, 21 Colin Slade, 22 Jason Emery.
Brumbies: 15 Jesse Mogg, 14 Henry Speight, 13 Andrew Smith, 12 Christian Lealiifano, 11 Joe Tomane, 10 Matt Toomua, 9 Nic White, 8 Ben Mowen (c), 7 George Smith, 6 Jordan Smiler, 5 Sam Carter, 4 Peter Kimlin, 3 Dan Palmer, 2 Stephen Moore, 1 Ben Alexander.
Replacements: 16 Siliva Siliva, 17 Scott Sio, 18 Fotu Auelua, 19 Colby Faingaa, 20 Ian Prior, 21 Pat McCabe, 22 Tevita Kuridrani.
Date: Friday, 12 April
Venue: Forsyth Barr Stadium, Dunedin

text: An intense engagement with the physicality of clay and fire characterises Yo Akiyama's Metavoid series of large ceramic works. Each begins with a wheel-thrown form, the first of Akiyama's many manipulations of the clay, which include cutting, folding, tearing and firing the partially dried surface to accelerate natural processes, such as fissuring and cracking. Surfaces treated with vinegar and iron filings become earth brown, gaining a visual density that further obliterates any sense of the artificial. Each process is a microcosm of the primordial geological forces that shape the earth's fragile skin of rock and clay, a surface that appears stable, but which we live with in the knowledge that it can be shattered in an instant by violent natural forces as much as by human intervention. The visual and physical tension of Akiyama's tightly sprung works encapsulates this latent performance of natural materials, taking us on a journey to the heart of ancient matter.

As for the argumentative. We were not arguing per say. We were playing our characters. My character doesn't think it is a good idea to spook the townfolk who are being raided by bandits. Some folk have never seen an orc and perhaps a dwarf for that matter. So his point of view is one that he thinks is best for the townfolk and the motley band that he and the other 3 make up. Besides debating about what to do is part of a newly put together groups makeup. Once they get to know each other better things will go much smoother. //

"Good. I don't like dogs.", she states with a satisfied look about her face, and then mumbles something to herself under her breath. She then walks around her horse a bit both to give the horse a short rest from carrying her and to give her backside a rest from riding so long.
I'm not meaning to be contrary either. It's Chara. She's just a jagged pill sometimes. PS liking the idea of bold text myself too. Thanks.

After attending to the dogs, she turns to you & says
"Afternoon, priest of St Cuthbert. If your looking for the church, just head up north on the road & over the river. You can't miss it, as it's the biggest building on that side of the village. (#20)" She says as she notices your holy symbol. As she speaks to you, 4 small children (3 girls & a boy) peer out from the doorway at you.
"If you are looking for a bite to eat, or a drink, the Inn of the Welcome Wench is your best bet for that. Actually it's the only place really, ha ha." she says with a jovial laugh. The little children still look at you with wide eyes.
"Just follow the road you'll come to the place. Again you can't miss the place." (It's #7)
As you are talking with the woman, you notice over the doorway is a carved wooden acorns & leaves. You notice this to be a sign of the Old Faith (3 deities dedicated to nature & other non-civilized areas of the world. These being Ehlonna, Obad-hai, and most of all Beory, the Earth-Mother).
"I'd offer you a bite to eat myself but my husband is out in the field right now working & I'm not sure if he would approve of me letting in strangers & such. Epically with all the evil-doings about." When she says "evil-doings" she makes a symbol over her chest. A symbol of Beory.
Anyone that approaches the lad at the other farm
As you approach, the young boy looks up but continues his chores, as you get near him he says to you
"Afternoon, my name is Mickey or Mick, as everyone here calls me. If you want to talk to the master of the house I can get him for you."
He briefly stops but continues after speaking. Awaiting your answer.
Oh what the hell--
ReaperCon goer since 2005!

"What you gonna do when we get into town?"
Allowing time for Isha's response, she reveals her own plans for the night.
"I just wanna eat, drink, sleep, and not have to kill anybody just for one night."

I am using "" because I am at work and my phone will not let me bold on this forum for some reason. Just to avoid confution.
Posted 16 June 2011 - 09:19 PM
"What's to learn?", she asks, rhetorically. "Sleep just happens when you're tired. Maybe he need to work harder." She grins at the dwarf's steward. "Don't tell him I said that."

The goodwife:
"Oh no, we never go there, my husband & I have devoted our lives to Beory's teachings. Thank you for the invitation. (while she doesn't try to show it, she gives you that "anther faith, beh!" look to you when you offer) You might try talking with the priest, Calmert. Thou he isn't the high priest, that title belongs to Canon Terjon. I would rather talk to Calmert thou, as he is more of a people person, but the Canon Terjon is a good man, just a bit full of himself."
She says to you upon your offer to attend the St Cuthbert church.
"You can stable your horses at either the Inn or at the large stone tower (#31) of Rufus & Burne. They are or were to put it more properly, adventurers like yourselves. They just settled here after the last crusade to rid the area of the that evil temple & it's influences. They are good men, well liked too."
The farm boy:
"k, wait here I'll go get them." the boy says
After a few minutes (more like 5-10) the boy emerges with 2 elderly people, a man & woman, the man walks with a cane. Both appear to be probably in their 70s.
"Mick here, says your here to see me or my wife. I don't know you, so what do yah want?" the old man says as he leans on his cane.
the woman overlooks you & the rest of the party, noting your armor, weapons & other adventuring gear. She says to you
"Are you friends of Otis? If so he is in trouble???"
Oh what the hell--
ReaperCon goer since 2005!

I would like to ask more about Mick and his roll with there family.
My fault trying to type from my phone I have fixed it.
Posted 17 June 2011 - 07:46 PM
I will see to the needs of this horse, and then to my own, and then perhaps I will play a little." She touches the flute case at her hip.
"You're good at that.", Chara remarks about the flute. "I never even learnt how to whistle."
Posted 17 June 2011 - 08:20 PM
"Who is Mike?" the old woman says "I said Otis. He is our son, our oldest actually. He went off with people like yourselves & we haven't heard anything from him since. I fear he might be held against his will or worse!" the old woman says
"Mary, Otis will be fine! He is a good lad, he went after his fortune unlike our other son. That no good drunkard!" the old man says.
"Elmo is a good man, he just doesn't have his priorities set right, 'member he failed at getting into the Viscount's guard."
"Darn right he doesn't!!" the man says with a bit of disgust. "That kid needs to toughen up, become a farmer like me & continue the family name & business!!"
Oh what the hell--

Air Canada
Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Luc Desnoyers Rivière-des-Mille-Îles, QC
Mr. Speaker, 3,000 jobs, the majority of which are in Quebec, are in jeopardy because Air Canada is transferring its technical services to Aveos, which could then move to El Salvador.
Why is the Minister of Finance not demanding that the letter and the spirit of the legislation be respected and that Air Canada maintain control of its operational and overhaul centres?
Air Canada
Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Chilliwack—Fraser Canyon
Chuck Strahl Minister of Transport
Mr. Speaker, long before this question hit the floor of the House of Commons and the Bloc finally woke up to this, we have been dealing with Air Canada on this for months. We wanted assurances. Are the jobs going to be secure? Will the maintenance facilities in Mississauga, Winnipeg and Montreal be maintained? Will the employees be saved? Will they have the same pension benefits, entitlements and so on? The answer is yes on all fronts.
To the Bloc, hello, wake up, that is the story. The members are finally cluing into it, but only now the facts come to light. We are way ahead of them on this one.
The Environment
Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Gerard Kennedy Parkdale—High Park, ON
Mr. Speaker, the government has been bragging for weeks about what it will accomplish on the environment and climate change. Yesterday we learned what it really meant. The government is gutting support to protect Canadians from pollution and climate change, removing funds for all the new parks it has been promising for years and slashing money to monitor health hazards all to pay for more prisons for first-time offenders.
Will the minister now stand up in the House and admit that the only difference between him and four failed predecessors is that his failure has been in a record short period of time?
The Environment
Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Peter Kent Minister of the Environment
Mr. Speaker, I reject outright the outrageous premise of the question, but I thank my colleague because it gives me the opportunity to say that Environment Canada remains committed to initiatives and investments to ensure the health and safety of Canadians and their environment.
Departmental expenditures change from year to year, especially in a regulatory department like Environment Canada where a significant portion of funding is temporary in nature. My colleague will recognize our successful temporary programs like the economic action plan and the home retrofit.
The Environment
Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Gerard Kennedy Parkdale—High Park, ON
Mr. Speaker, I reject outright a Minister of the Environment who has rolled over and surrendered more resources more quickly than any other minister in the history of Canada, some $800 million in 60 days.
Energy prices are up an average of $200 in the past year per family, yet the government is cutting 100% of support for the home retrofit program intended to protect families.
Will the Minister of the Environment, who wrote off this program so publicly after two days on the job, now explain to seniors and working families who are trying to make ends meet why they are being abandoned so callously by the government?
The Environment
Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Peter Kent Minister of the Environment
Mr. Speaker, I cannot accept the outrageous premise of my colleague's question.
Coming back to our highly successful temporary programs like the economic action plan, like the home retrofit program, or the Retire Your Ride program in my department, which took more than 120,000 older highly polluting vehicles and 4,000 tonnes of emissions off the road before our new greenhouse gas emission regulations came into effect, I would suggest my hon. colleague that he cool his jets and wait for the budget on March 22.
The Environment
Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Linda Duncan Edmonton Strathcona, AB
Mr. Speaker, perhaps we will give the minister another try.
Clearly when it comes to air pollution and climate change, the only thing the government wants to cut is necessary funding. After Environment Canada revealed that the government would achieve only a quarter of its promised greenhouse gas reductions, the same government gutted climate change funding. Despite clear evidence of failed federal action on oil sands impacts, the government eviscerates budgets for clean air and water.
How can the government possibly defend these regressive actions?
The Environment
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Peter Kent Minister of the Environment
Mr. Speaker, again I cannot accept the premise of the question, but I can thank the member and remind her that we have a plan, unlike the Liberals who for 13 years achieved nothing on remedial action for climate change. Our plan is working.
With regard to the main estimates and our continuing commitment to Canadians and the safety of their environment, I say to the member, too, that she should cool her jets and wait for the budget on March 22.
The Environment
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Nathan Cullen Skeena—Bulkley Valley, BC
Mr. Speaker, the minister is entitled to his opinion but not to his own facts.
Under the Conservatives, greenhouse gases are amongst the highest in the world, while spending on green energy solutions has been slashed. Last year the minister killed off the popular home retrofit program and scrapped support for renewable heat and green energy. Yesterday an additional $600 million was eliminated.
Meanwhile, the minister really took one for the team, cutting a full 1% from his limo budget. Is the only Conservative plan to fight climate change to have the minister walk a little more?
The Environment
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Peter Kent Minister of the Environment
Mr. Speaker, I do not understand the entire context of the member's question.
However, I can tell him that we are well on target to reducing greenhouse gases and meeting our 2020 target of a 17% reduction from our 2005 base year.
I would remind the member that Canada contributes barely 2% of total greenhouse gas emissions every year. We are engaged in encouraging the large emitters to join us in reducing those emissions.
The Budget
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
James Rajotte Edmonton—Leduc, AB
Mr. Speaker, since 2006, Parliament has passed five straight successful budgets.
In that time our Conservative government has cut taxes for the average Canadian family by $3,000, rebuilt Canada's infrastructure, brought health care transfers to record highs and much more.
While the Liberal-led coalition wants to force an unnecessary election to impose a $6 billion tax hike, our government is focused on what really matter to Canadians: jobs and economic growth.
As we approach the next phase of Canada's economic action plan, would the minister inform Canadians when he will present budget 2011?
The Budget
Oral Questions
March 2nd, 2011 / 3 p.m.
Jim Flaherty Minister of Finance
Mr. Speaker, Canada's economic growth shows that the economic action plan is working.
Our economy has grown for six consecutive quarters with over 460,000 new jobs created since July 2009. While these are positive signs, the global recovery remains uncertain and there is more to do.
I am pleased to request the designation of an order of the day to present budget 2011, the next phase of Canada's economic action plan, on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 at 4 p.m.
Air Canada
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Kevin Lamoureux Winnipeg North, MB
Mr. Speaker, I have a question for the Prime Minister.
Thousands of good-quality jobs in Winnipeg, Mississauga and Montreal are at risk. While the Prime Minister is being silent, the act is very clear in terms of Air Canada, and I quote:
—the Corporation shall...maintain operational and overhaul centres in the City of Winnipeg—
including in Mississauga and Montreal.
Why is the Prime Minister not holding Air Canada accountable and making it abide by the law?
Air Canada
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Chilliwack—Fraser Canyon
Chuck Strahl Minister of Transport
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to reassure him that in Mississauga, and in that other place he could not remember, the jobs are secure.
That is why, back in October and November, during the hearings on the future of how they would be structured and the opening of the sites in Mississauga, Winnipeg and Montreal, the assurances we received from Air Canada were that not only were all employees going to continue to be hired but also that they would have the same wages, the same pensions, the same entitlements. They would have the option of staying in Air Canada or going over to Aveos, but more importantly, no jobs would be lost and those maintenance facilities will stay open.
National Capital Commission
Oral Questions
3 p.m.
Richard Nadeau Gatineau, QC
Mr. Speaker, even though the Conservatives promised to be transparent, we have learned that they are quietly trying to amend the rules concerning government contracts to allow the National Capital Commission to award contracts without a tendering process. Each year, tens of millions of dollars' worth of contracts could be awarded without a tendering process, at the whim of NCC executives and the minister responsible.
Does the government plan to make the NCC a Conservative slush fund so that the party can reward friends of the regime here in the Ottawa Valley?
