The brazenness with which the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government has interfered with the working of the Central Bureau of Investigation's (CBI) probe into the Coalgate scam has left citizens wondering whether any institution will remain intact when someday this government and this prime minister bow out of office. While the story of the interference of the Prime Minister' Office, the Law Minister, the Coal Ministry and the Attorney General in the preparation of the CBI's report to the Supreme Court in this matter is indeed shocking, the lies uttered by the key players in this episode has shaken public confidence not just in ministers but for the first time in the country's law officers. How despicable the conduct of these individuals has been can be gauged from the following fact: The government allocated coal blocks to its cronies in an irresponsible manner during UPA-I. The Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) investigated these allocations and said that by not adopting a transparent method of allocation to private parties through methods like competitive bidding, the government's actions had caused a humongous loss of Rs 1,85,591 crores up to March 31, 2011 to the public exchequer. This was far more than the loss caused by the unscrupulous manner in which the government sold 2G Spectrum to private telecom companies. When the CAG report became public, ministers in the government hurled abuses at the CAG and sought to ridicule the findings of the auditors. Thereafter, the matter came before the Supreme Court and the court directed the CBI to investigate the allocations and report back to it. It was decided that the CBI would file its report in a sealed cover, meaning that no one outside the CBI would see it. But, such is the respect that the UPA and its law minister Mr.Ashwani Kumar have for the Supreme Court that they insisted on seeing the CBI's report before it was sent to the court. The CBI had said exactly what the CAG had said. Its report spoke of the absence of clear cut norms for allocation of coal blocks. The law minister had this remark removed. Among those who were involved in this exercise, which smacks of contempt for the highest court in the country, were the law minister, the Attorney General, the PMO and the Coal Ministry. Ashwani Kumar summoned the CBI Director and law officers to his office to see the report. The Attorney General and the Additional Solicitor General attended this meeting and later summoned CBI officials to his home office. Meanwhile officials from the PMO and the Coal Ministry landed up at the CBI headquarters and asked that they be shown the report. All the characters in this drama suggested changes of some kind or the other or approved the line taken by the minister. The court wanted the CBI to investigate the conduct of the government in coal block allocations and it asked for the report in a sealed cover because it did not want anyone in government to see it and pressure the CBI in any way. Also, the government was not to see this report because the status of the government is this case is that of the accused. Have you ever come across an investigating officer being asked to show his investigation report to an accused before submitting it before a court? Secondly, have you ever come across an investigating officer changing the contents of the charge sheet on the suggestions of the accused? This is common sense and very easily understood by India's 120 crore people, but persons in the union government are so drunk with power that this simple logic goes over their head. Since they still remain in office after the CWG Scam, the 2G Scam and the Coalgate Scam, they have become bold enough to cock a snook at even the Supreme Court. But, the story does not end here. When news of the government's interference in the CBI's report came into the open, the persons involved resorted to outright dishonesty. Shockingly, Mr.Vahanvati, the Attorney General and the country topmost law officer, lied in the Supreme Court that he had not seen the CBI report before it was presented in a sealed cover to the court. The Additional Solicitor General Mr.Harin Raval, who was present in the court was shocked to hear the dishonest claim made by Mr.Vahanvati and decided to lie to the court to save his boss. He told the Supreme Court that the CBI had not shared the report with its political masters. The Law Minister Mr.Ashwani Kumar and his friends in government resorted to a string of untruths to explain what he had done. It was said that he did not call a meeting of the CBI Director and others. Next he said he had made only grammatical changes in the report, as if that is the job of the law minister. Next, it was said that he had not made any "substantial changes" in the report. Finally, in an attempt top brazen it out, he and his friends argued that as law minister he had the right to oversee the legal side of the CBI's work.
As the scandalous conduct of the law minister, the PMO and the law officers came to light, the Supreme Court directed the CBI Director Mr.Ranjit Sinha to file an affidavit stating exactly who had interfered with the report, what changes were made and why were lies uttered in court. As directed by the court, Mr.Sinha has filed an affidavit and contradicted the claims made by the law minister and the attorney general. He has said the law minister made two significant deletions in the report. If one sees the changes made by the minister, it is clear that he was trying to dilute the CBI report and save the government – a clear case of an accused diluting the charge sheet that the police is filing against him!
Mr Sinha's narration of what happened clearly contradicts the Attorney General as well. The Law Minister called two meetings in this connection in February and March and Mr.Vahanvati was present at both these meetings. On March 6, Mr.Vahanvati called CBI officers to his home office, saw the report, made some observations and suggested some changes.
In other words, the CBI Director's report to the Supreme Court constitutes an indictment of the law minister and the attorney general. He virtually states that both of them were dishonest This affidavit also discloses the fact that the Prime Minister's Office had interfered with the status report filed by the CBI, as also the Coal Ministry – which tells us a lot about the respect that prime minister Manmohan Singh has for the Supreme Court. In addition, Mr.Harin Raval, who till recently was the Additional Solicitor General, has also confirmed that both the minister and the Attorney General directly interfered with the contents of the CBI's report. Mr.Raval, in addition, has directly accused the Attorney General of having lied in the Supreme Court.
Mr Harin Raval, the Additional Solicitor General, who too uttered a lie in court to save the skin of his boss, however has had the grace to come clean and put the facts on the table. In a letter to the Attorney General he has put on record all the meetings which took place in regard to the CBI's report to the court. His letter, which has been made public, fully corroborates the affidavit filed by the CBI Director and provides further evidence of the dishonesty of the law minister and the attorney general.
Mr Sinha's affidavit and Mr.Raval's letter gives us an idea of the audacity with which the key players lied to the court and the people about their involvement in this case. Finally, adding to the government's shame is the indictment of its conduct by the Supreme Court itself on May 8. The court also reprimanded the officials of the PMO and Coal Ministry who had the temerity to go to the CBI's office to see the report to be filed in court.
Finally, the court rebuked the government for changing "the heart" of the report and described the CBI as a "caged parrot" with many masters. It asked CBI whether it was a "collaborator or investigator?"
No government has ever got such a tongue-lashing from the Supreme Court. This makes it one of the most shameful moments in the history of the union government after independence. Yet, days after the court expressed its views, the prime minister, the law minister, the attorney general and the officials involved still continue in office as if nothing has happened. Never before have we seen so many thick-skinned persons in one government. Where do we go from here ?

Good battle but ash should have lost swellow and corphish sounded horrible and ash hasnt improved at all its been six episodes and he still sounds terrible.

The dub version was so bland. Part of what made the Japanese version so awesome was all the suspenseful music. Yet nearly all of it was replaced. I also remember Tucker's entrance being far more exciting. But oh well. It was decent.
Marry the Night
Yami Yugi + Harley + Yusuke + Pegasus = Tucker.
Quit exaggerating. Seriously. All you're doing with that is being annoying. Did you close your eyes and plug your ears at the point where Ash tricked Arcanine and Swampert into attacking each other, or what?
Different does not equal terrible. And this is not the place to talk about voices.

Did anyone else notice that when the episode started and they showed a group of trainers and their pokemon, there was a blue Breloom?O_o
Yeah, but that was the episode Weekend Warrior, not Tactics Theatrics.
I actually thought this was a decently done episode. Though it felt like a repeat of Wheel of Frontier. The double battle was a nice touch. I like how Ash was able to pick up on Tucker's strategy then use it against him. I was expecting Grovyle for this battle, since he could then seriously beat up Swampert. Though i see how he would have the advantage using Swellow. Just odd though.
One of the coolest touches was Ash's intro, showing all of his achievements(mentioning his win at the Orange Island League, then telling of his other feats), and also the press conference. Did anyone else notice what one of the journalists actually said: "What do you think of reporters who ask a lot of questions?" Isnt that the scenario with these things. Not only that, but the primary new reporters looked an awful lot like Gabby and TY(though i dont think it's true). Also, When Max cautioned Ash about the interview, what did Ash do next? Partly made himself look a little dumb.
Overall, a great Battle episode. I have noticed that for some odd reason, there was only three filler episodes required between the Battle Arena and the Battle Dome. Between the Battle Factory and the Battle Arena i think it was a good 8 episodes between them. Then there will be four other filler episodes between the Battle Dome and the Battle Pike. Odd way of doing things.

Obviously, Ash chose not to use Grovyle because of the presence of Arcanine.

I feel he should have used Kingler instead of Corphish in this ep.
Poor Kingler never got a battle this saga. :/
What did Swellow's new voice sounded like?
More or less the same.
I really enjoyed this episode, as compared to the dragonair episode. It was very entertaining from beginning to end, and the fight was awesome. My two cents:
-- Nothing bad from Team Rocket. Gotta love it.
-- They actually mention Ash's win in the Orange Islands. They rarely seem to mention it, they seem to only mention his losses in Kanto and Johto.
-- Best line: "Did I just say something a little dumb?" LOL
-- Best exchange: Scott: "Tucker's the star, and you're a supporting actor." Ash (horrified): "ACTOR?!?"
-- The scene with May imagining Norman wearing Tucker's costume was definitely hilarious.
-- I loved the fans' reactions to everything Tucker did.
-- AWESOME fight. It was tough, exciting, and unpredictable, just the way I like it.
Overall, 10/10. I'd be looking more forward to next week if I wasn't suffering from Ranger overload thanks to the captioning thread.

did you notice the way that Tucker's Swampert had advanced techniqes.
Like mud shot was previously like sludge bomb except brown but now is a bright blue colour. Water pulse used to be a ball of water that would hit the opponent unleashing a wave of water, now it is like rain dance except with more power
Great episode.

That wasn't a special look for his Swampert but one of the many "makeovers" to attacks that occur through the series. All Mud Shots will from now on look like this, unless they decide to change them again. Honestly I'm okay with most of the makeovers but this one is a bit hard to take simply because there is nothing muddy about blues spheres of energy, and it is a Ground type attack after all...
Now that was a special use of Water Pulse. Since any Water Pulse simply collects moisture in the air into a sphere of energy, Tucker had trained his Swampert to the point that it could manipulate how the water was collected from the air and in turn manipulate the shape it took. Other pokemon that have shown the ability to alter the shape of water include Ash's Totodile (albeit that was not water collected from the air but its own internal supply).Water pulse used to be a ball of water that would hit the opponent unleashing a wave of water, now it is like rain dance except with more power
Great episode.
Its also similar to how May's Combusken manipulates its Fire Spin to forms that look very different from regular Fire Spins, i.e balls of fire, swirling mid-air vortexes.
The defender of all things Pokemon!
I thought this was a great episode, having Ash battle a guy who girls would throw certain articles of clothing at if they could. The Frontier Brains are tough in the games and I'm glad the anime is reflecting that. My favorite scene was the press conference and I loved how Ash's intro recapped his entire career as a Pokemon trainer. Seldom do we get continuity in the dub.
November 11, 1918 - At the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, the Great War ends. At 5 a.m. that morning, Germany, bereft of manpower and supplies and faced with imminent invasion, signed an armistice agreement with the Allies in a railroad car outside Compiégne, France. The First World War left nine million soldiers dead and 21 million wounded, with Germany, Russia, Austria-Hungary, France, and Great Britain each losing nearly a million or more lives. In addition, at least five million civilians died from disease, starvation, or exposure.

And Ash wins by another fluke! Oh well... anything to please the children right? Lol IMO I wanted Ash to lose since he had much more weaker pokemon and they werent as skilled as Tuckers pokemon. But everything was pretty good like Ash's introduction and Tuckers with the flashing lights and the poofy smoke everywhere. Great episode and great battle! Nice animation used in this episode. I loved it. I give it a 8.5/10!

I enjoyed that episode quite a bit actually. If I was in Ash's position, and I had the opportunity to call upon any of my own, I would have used Bayleef and Kingler or Phanpy.
Me too. Especially seeing all the arena quickly aswell.I loved how Ash's intro recapped his entire career as a Pokemon trainer. Seldom do we get continuity in the dub.
Do the Robot!
I'd say it was a good episode, very exciting, and kept me on my toes XD. And those who say Aerial Ace is weak, it's actually described as an extremely fast and powerful attack.
True and my Scizor in my Emerald version has it and it's anything but weak.
I haven't had my review on the episode yet so I might do it while I'm here. I loved it and it kept me on my seat the whole time during the battle. The animation during the battle was really nice aswell and this is coming from someone who's been studying animation. It worked very well.
I like the voices in it, they're working for me very well. So I'm satisfied with it and ejoyed it a lot.
To, me I thought Ash should have lost this one, I didn't believe that his Corphish and Swellow could survive being almost totaled in a Fire and Water vortex. It was kind of cheap that a Crabhammer and an Aerial Ace can take down an Arcanine and a Swampert. The battle was alright, but it did feel rushed with the Aerial Ace and the Crabhammer. Yeah, it was cheaper as the Golden Pikachu and Swellow Thunder Armor was. The whole battle besides that part was good. I'd give this episode a 7.5/10.
Love this episode. This battle was the hottest I've ever seen. My heart kept on pounding cause of how fast everthing was going and was hoping none of Ash's pokemon would lose. And I don't like the fact that everyone doesn't think that Ash isn't experienced than Tucker. Even though Ash as less leveled pokemon doesn't mean he doesn't know how to use them to win.

I just recently rewatched it on my computer, and i realized something. Brock says that Arcanine can use Protect. that is infact wrong. Swampert is the one who used Protect. Not too sure what happened there.

Boyle, Frances, Coxeter, Peter, Dunne, Michael, Najman, Jackob M., & Purdie, David (2006) Sexual partner preferences: Evolutionary imperative, emotional attachment or hedonism? Marriage & Family Review, 40(1), pp. 5-23.
Data are taken from a representative sample of the Australian population to determine the qualities that are desired in a sexual partner. These qualities are considered in three categories: those reflecting the perceived reproductive value of the partner (evolutionary imperative), the emotional attachment to a partner and the pure pleasure associated with having sex. Subjects completed a telephone-based survey(876 males; 908 females; aged 18-59). The qualities respondents report they most desire in a sexual partner are that the person is someone who cares about them, and whom they love. They also rank highly the criterion that their partner should enjoy sex, and much less highly that they themselves should enjoy the sex. Evolutionary imperatives are ranked fairly low as criteria sought in a sexual partner. Males and females generally expressed similar preferences in a sexual partner, as do persons in different age groups, and persons in different marital status categories. Heterosexual males appear to place a higher emphasis on the physical appearance of a partner when compared with non-heterosexuals.

Perez Hilton Sues Black Eyed Peas' Manager for $25K
A few days after Toronto's June 21 MuchMusic Awards, celebrity blogger Perez Hilton filed a civil suit against Polo Molina, band manager of the Black Eyed Peas, for battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress. According to the complaint, Black Eyed Peas' front-man will.i.am, unhappy with Perez's recent postings that colorfully expressed his disappointment in the band's latest CD, approached Perez (a.k.a. Mario Lavendeira) at an after party hosted by local Toronto club Cobra. Apparently, Perez and will.i.am engaged in a war of words, during which Perez used a gay slur, for which he later apologized (see below). Yet at some point during the verbal brawl, Perez alleges that Molina physically assaulted him, resulting in an eye injury and other injuries that left Perez bleeding and emotionally distraught.
The eight-page complaint, filed on June 24 in the Superior Court of California (L.A. County) on behalf of Perez by Bryan Freedman of Freedman & Taitelman, LLP, not only accuses Molina of physical abuse, but also provides the court with a detailed list of Molina's prior scrapes with the law. Arguing that Molina has a history of violence and criminal misconduct, Perez alleges that during a taping of Punk'd in 2004, Molina, believing he was actually being arrested, punched an off-duty policeman who was part of the program. The complaint also mentions Molina's current probationary status in California following a DUI, as well as an alleged 2006 brawl in Berlin, Germany during which will.i.am, Molina, and others injured innocent bystanders with flying beer bottles and other glassware. The complaint (called "poorly written" by one legal blogger) reads more like one of Perez's recent blogposts than a legal complaint:
By this lawsuit Lavendeira seeks to protect his Constitutional right to express his opinions and to be free from physical violence and intimidation for exercising these rights. Pointedly, no matter how angry Molina and his entourage may have been, no matter how much they disagree with Lavendeira's opinion, they did not have, nor do they ever have, the right to try and inflict physical harm to him or anyone else. Violence is never the answer and will never be tolerated by Lavendeira. Thus, the time has come for Molina to be held accountable for his criminal behavior, and to try to explain his cowardly and heinous actions to a jury of his peers. Moreover, punitive and exemplary damages must be awarded to show Molina and the Black Eyed Peas that physical violence is never an acceptable response to one's expression of opinion.
This lawsuit is yet another in Perez's recent attempt to fight back; on April 9, Perez filed suit against local Florida blogger Jonathan Jaxson (a.k.a. Jonathan Lewandowski) for defamation (oh, the irony). Perez claims he suffered loss of reputation, shame, mortification and mental anguish as the result of Jaxson's media claims that Perez manipulated him into sending Perez sexually explicit videos.
Apparently, Perez and his lawyer have embarked upon a legal crusade to "strike back" against all those who attempt to stifle his constitutional right to free speech. It will be interesting to see not only how the court handles this most recent filing, but also where and when the next battle (Perez against the World) will occur. As for Molina, he is set to appear in court to face the allegations against him on August 5.
Note: After apparently slinging a gay slur at will.i.am during the verbal fight on Sunday night, Perez has since apologized for his insensitivity, while simultaneously promoting his legal argument against Molina: "I was in an out-of-the ordinary situation and used a word that I would not utter under normal circumstances . . . . I am speaking out because I realize that the last few days have been more hurtful to me—and many others—than the repeated blows I suffered to my head in Toronto this past weekend."

Two people were arrested Wednesday on charges of forgery, theft and felony obstruction.
At 1:15 p.m. Wednesday, officers spoke with Jazmin Larue, 21, about the whereabouts of Aaron Fickett, 22, as part of an investigation of checks that were stolen. Three of the checks were used at McPherson businesses. They were connected to a closed account.
Larue told the officers Fickett was not at home. The officers later found out he was hiding in the bathroom.
The officers arrested Fickett on charges of four counts of theft, three counts of forgery and one count of felony obstruction. He was held in lieu of $12,000 bond.
The officers also arrested Larue on charges of three counts of theft, two counts of forgery and one count of felony obstruction. She was held in lieu of $8,500 bond.

On the Distributional Conditions for a Consumption‐oriented Three Moment CAPM
- Abstract
- Full Text PDF
- Author(s): ALAN KRAUS, ROBERT LITZENBERGER
- Published: Apr 30, 2012
- Pages: 1381-1391

In this paper, we develop sufficient conditions on probability distributions for a three moment (mean, variance, and skewness) consumption‐oriented capital asset pricing model (CAPM) to price correctly a subset of assets. The assumptions that individuals in an allocationally efficient capital market have identical probability beliefs and monotone increasing strictly concave utility functions displaying nonincreasing absolute risk aversion imply an aggregate preference function that exhibits preference for expected return, aversion to variance of return, and preference for positive skewness. For otherwise arbitrary preferences, we show that quadratic characteristic lines are sufficient for a subset of assets to be priced according to a three moment consumption‐oriented CAPM.

Woman in the crowd [sound from the rally]: Are you from the ABC, dear?
Wendy Carlisle: Yes I am.
Woman in the crowd: Yes, I saw your ... You'll just ... from this. Yeah, enjoy.
Lord Christopher Monckton: ...and that is just four incidents in less than a week in which the ABC has shown its credentials as supporters of utilitarianism, socialism and of fascism.
[Crowd chants, 'ABC, ABC']
Wendy Carlisle: As Lord Monckton spoke, I stood in the crowd not far from the stage, my microphone held high to catch his words. My ABC ID badge was clearly visible and a young man in the crowd turned and started to point at me and mouth, 'A-B-C'. It was then that people started to deliberately push me.
Lord Christopher Monckton: ...not interested in giving people a fair go. So I do have a message for your Liberal and National coalition...
[Sound of crowd jostling and taunting Wendy Carlisle as Lord Monckton continues in the background]
Wendy Carlisle: I'm now being jostled by members of the crowd.
Man in crowd: Don't use force against her. Do not touch her! Excuse me, coercive force is the hallmark of...
Wendy Carlisle: I'm now being harassed by people in this crowd...
[Crowd applauds and cheers Lord Monckton]
Man in crowd: Leave this woman alone... Piss off!... Just leave this woman alone... She's free to stand here... She's free to be here...
Wendy Carlisle: I've actually never encountered this in a reporting job ever before.

Wendy's Wonderland -- Part II
IN Radio National's hatchet job on Viscount Monckton, reporter Wendy Carlisle (below) makes much of her allegedly rough treatment at the hands of those attending the anti-carbon tax rally in Hyde Park. It is an audio verite moment, the note of peril in Carlisle's voice adding much to the drama. Here is that section's transcript:
So here are another couple of questions:
1/ Who was that white knight who lectured the crowd about "coercive force is the hallmark of…." and did he accompany Carlisle to the rally?
2/ Why was the quote truncated before his sympathies, pro or con the tax, were made clear?
From the broadcast audio, you get the impression that Mr White Knight is most likely an anti-taxer prepared to extend a sense of decency and fair play, even to ideological opponents. But if he is, say, Carlisle's beau, that needs to be stated, since it would raise the possibility he might have been acting as both agent provocateur and supporting player in an orchestrated and deftly edited hit on Monckton and his supporters.
Prior to this, although omitted from the broadcast's transcript, Carlisle can be heard begging sotto voce for space as she worms her way through the crowd to the apron of the stage. Why did she feel this re-positioning was needed? Her microphone was quite clearly picking up Monckton's every uttered word. And why did she feel the need to nestle in the bosom of the mob? A friend of the Billabong who attended the rally insists that a roped-off space directly in front of the stage was available to the press. So why did Carlisle, who says she was but feet from Monckton, not duck under the barrier and stand even closer to her subject?
One way to settle these points would be for the ABC to post the full, unedited tape of Carlisle's afternoon amongst the Hyde Park barbarians, including any other exchanges with Mr White Knight.
The only (semi)comprehensible audio snatch from the crowd comes at the start of the above section, when an unnamed woman wishes Carlisle well, addresses her as "dear" and urges her to enjoy the afternoon. After that comes an apology from someone in the crowd and the exclamation "There, that's better." Is that really what thugs say when pushing women around?
That unedited tape could make for some fascinating listening.
A FURTHER THOUGHT: Wouldn't it have been nice if some member of the crowd had captured Carlisle's "scary moment" on video. Flip cameras are cheap, easy to operate and their footage is simplicity itself to upload. In the light of the ABC's manipulative partisanship, having recourse to an independent view of its operatives' actions would do much to settle those frequent accusations of bias.

Ever since the Cronulla riots, I've urged people to carry cameras, video or still, with them just in case of things like this. The Left has been getting away with thuggery because it's never been recorded, and the same with its lies.
The internet with its memory has proven to be a boon, as the article proves.
Please carry a camera, then we can expose the liars and their fellow travellers in the media.- AnonymousAugust 1, 2011 at 8:05 AM
Good point about the roped off area for the media. I saw a YouTube clip of Monckton speaking at that rally and there was plenty of space for the ABC woman to do cartwheels unhindered if she wanted to between the stage and the supporters. But we all know the ABC is biased...

Despite the recent departure of Ben LeRoy and Alison Janssen, Big Earth Publishing will continue to publish hard-edged crime and literary fiction under the Bleak House imprint, Big Earth publisher Dave Oskin said. LeRoy founded Bleak House in Madison, Wis. in 2001 and the press became an imprint of Big Earth in 2005.
"[LeRoy and Janssen] were looking to do other things. We'd been talking for a while about what they want to do with their careers, and with the rest of their lives," Oskin said of LeRoy and Janssen, whose last day with Big Earth was July 3. "We support them as they pursue a new direction."
LeRoy and Janssen announced over the weekend on their website www.tyrusbooks.com that they are launching a new press, Tyrus Books. Three titles — originally slated for publication under the Bleak House imprint — will be released this fall. LeRoy and Janssen are currently in discussions with a distributor, but no deal has been finalized.
LeRoy explains in a Youtube video posted on his new website that he felt "handicapped" by the Bleak House name, because it led to assumptions by those who had not read any of the press's 50 releases that they published "gory, violent books." "A literary sensibility was missing almost because of the name," LeRoy says, subsequently explaining that Tyrus Books was named in honor of Ty Cobb, "one of the greatest baseball players of all time," who had an "inability to accept failure."
Like Bleak House, Tyrus Books will focus on crime and literary fiction, though LeRoy and Janssen hope to expand into nonfiction as well as fiction that "strays more from [their] crime roots.
Big Earth will publish eight books under the Bleak House imprint this fall, and Oskin has already taken steps to find a new publisher to replace LeRoy. [LeRoy and Janssen] did a great job developing Bleak House," Oskin said, "And we're continuing to publish [Bleak House] books."

By many measures, the scrutiny that the University of Minnesota – Duluth is putting itself under sounds sweeping.
Budget problems have prompted campus officials to carry out a wholesale evaluation of all programs and services this fall so they can decide which ones they may have to cut or scale back. The university will scrutinize both academic and nonacademic areas.
It's a selection process that some unionized faculty fear will put administration over academics. Although they have no proof the administration will disproportionately ax programs, they fear the process has been rushed with an eye too geared toward the academic bottom line.
And they question why Duluth is cutting its budget at a time when the financial crisis appears to have largely passed at other campuses.
"We're at that general sense of unease and concern," said Michael Pfau, president of the University Education Association – Duluth.
A university spokeswoman said she would try to reach UMD officials to comment.
In an early June campus email, Chancellor Lendley Black announced the university would undergo "program prioritization."
In it, he said:
"We will closely examine the programs, courses, and services that we deliver to see how they align with our mission and how they position UMD for growth. The goal of this initiative is to use limited financial resources in ways that will best meet the needs of our students and our community."
He said officials would evaluate elements such as "quality, demand, reputation, and many other areas."
The chancellor wrote that the evaluations came amid financial pressures:
This initiative is timely given lower state funding over time, a decline in last year's new student enrollment, a challenging economy, and a shrinking Minnesota high school student population.
In a speech to faculty and staff in August, Black said the university needed to craft a budget that was $12 million — or 8 percent — less than its current budget.
"Although this is a significant amount of money, it is manageable considering our overall budget, and we don't have to solve this problem in one year," he told employees.
Instead, Black said, cuts would happen over three to five years.
He said the initiative "is not only focused on cutting budgets. This process will also help us determine which programs need additional resources. We will continue to invest in new programs or strengthen programs in areas of particular excellence, or where we have a unique niche, or where student demand is great."
History professor and union official Scott Laderman said instructors have been helping determine the criteria used in the assessment. And he said top campus officials have given no indication that they will cut disproportionately from academic programs.
But he said faculty were not consulted about the move to prioritize programs. He said Black's June announcement to the campus surprised faculty, and came at a time when many were on break from the campus.
Laderman said he fears faculty participation may inappropriately "legitimize" the cuts:
"… And we're also sanctioning this rushed, hasty process that I think is going to be used to basically justify cuts to those academic programs. So in effect it's seeking faculty sanction of a process that ultimately is going to be used to harm both faculty and students."
Underlying much of faculty concern is confusion over why the university is experiencing budget problems now.
Union President Pfau told me:
"We're especially concerned, because we're accustomed to going through these budget crises during the years of continual cuts in funding from the legislature. But here we finally have a year when we have funding flattening out or even increasing a little bit, and [yet] we're still in a budget crisis mode.
And so there's a general concern of: 'What has gone wrong that means that our campus is still in a budget crisis when other campuses apparently … have smoothed out a bit?"

Hehe...thank god for contractions and grammatical rules. Aside from the obvious well known spots, I agree, no need to further specify a spot than to speak in relative terms. Surfed this Saturday and it was 2-4 ft, super clean, and my buddy and I were the only two guys in the water. Had the whole beach to ourselves. If you do your homework and find it cool, no need to let the world know about it though.

Oh dear, I shouldn't browse the other items either. I have seen non-silver versions of the recipe shaker around, but never a silver one.

African Leaders and Nations Must Be Accountable
Print This Post
Prescribing Progressive Principles of Pan African Governance
Unfortunately, when I survey the scene in the Pan African world today, people of African descent are far from realizing this goal. And, what is lacking is an open conversation/discussion about what I consider to be the urgent need for a prescription of progressive principles of Pan African governance.
The recent crisis in Libya is a case in point. I am on record vehemently opposing the U.S. /NATO led assault on Libya to liquidate Colonel Muammar Gaddafi — within the context of what emerged as a civil war. However, to the dismay of some of my friends/allies, I also made it clear that I do not view Gaddafi as a paragon of progressive Pan African governance, or a hero to be hailed simply because he mouths anti- American, anti-imperialistic rhetoric as the self-proclaimed paramount chief of a United States of Africa. The reality is, for all of his splendid rhetoric, and some noteworthy accomplishments (he did snatch the Libyan people for the jaws of European colonialism and modernized the country), Gaddafi was essentially an authoritarian ruler who remained in power by repressing dissent and oppressing sectors of the population. Though he obviously has a following of loyalists, there was substantial, seething, suppressed discontent with his regime which burst into the open in response to the uprisings against repressive rulers in Tunisia, Egypt and Bahrain, the so called "Arab Spring." In their offer to mediate the conflict, the African Union (AU) emphasized the need for democratic reforms to resolve the crisis. This is why I strongly supported the AU initiative. It did not ignore the fact that there were legitimate grievances the Gaddafi regime needed to address in order to achieve peace. Few of the pro-Gaddafi proponents I know were willing to acknowledge the flaws and failing of his regime. Instead, most simply chose to herald his stance as a champion of Pan Africanism.
A recent rally in Harlem not only called for support of Gaddafi, it also decried sanctions against Robert Mugabe, the aging autocrat from Zimbabwe. Though Zimbabwe is suppose to be a democratic state, Mugabe and the leaders of his ruling Party have achieved "victory" and maintained power by brutally crushing the opposition. It is clear that a once highly regarded hero of the struggle for independence is hell bent on being President for life — with the ruling Party determined to hold power after his demise. Mugabe´s U.S. based supporters proclaim him the most revolutionary of African leaders because he has seized land from the White farmers, the minority which constituted the backbone of colonial rule, and redistributed to veterans of the liberation struggle. Mugabe devotees contend that the opposition is allied with and financed by White farmers. There is likely some truth to this charge. I absolutely agree that land stolen from Africans by interlopers should be returned to the original owners. However, the issue is whether in a "democratic" society, intimidation, repression and violence should be used to suppress the opposition no matter who their allies or political persuasion. My answer is that it is not acceptable.
Because of his status as a hero of the anti-colonial liberation struggles, for years African leaders refused to chastise or rein in Mugabe. Some leaders were no doubt reluctant to do so because of their own despotic regimes ("let he who is without sin, cast the first stone"). Thankfully that is beginning to change. South African President Jacob Zuma, the AU´s designated Mediator, is openly warning Mugabe to cease using repressive means to maintain power or risk losing legitimacy in the eyes the AU. Hopefully, the posture of the AU in seeking a settlement in Libya and President Zuma´s willingness to confront Mugabe signal a refreshing trend toward holding leaders and governments accountable for their behavior. For progressive Pan Africanists the message to African leaders must be unequivocal: having a "correct" posture on anti-imperialism or Pan Africanism while suppressing, maiming, killing and otherwise constraining the aspirations of your own people is not acceptable and will not be tolerated! While we must fight against imperialism and support Pan African projects and initiatives, we will not embrace tyrants, despots and autocrats. Leaders, governments should be judged by progressive principles of governance.
As an outgrowth of deliberations at the Black Power Conferences in the 60´s and the Congress of African people in 1970, a broad set of principles for engaging electoral politics and judging the performance of Black elected officials in the U.S. evolved. The mission of Black elected officials was to expose the hypocrisy, contradictions and ultimately the inability of the Capitalist political economy to deliver a quality standard of living for all the people; utilize electoral office to strain the system to its limits to maximize the delivery of resources to the people; and, to mobilize/organize independent political structures to which elected officials would be accountable. After the Gary Black Political Convention, the concept of holding elected officials accountable to Black agendas devised by the people in local communities was also advanced. The bottom line is progressive Nationalists/Pan Africanists outlined a rationale for engaging electoral political and principles or standards for holding Black elected officials accountable. The goal was not to elect people to extol the virtues of the system and maintain it, nor was it to have them gain access to power for status, prestige and personal advancement. It was to engage the system to delivery maximum resources/services to the people while simultaneous organizing to change the system.
Candidly, few Black elected officials in the U.S. measure up these principles. And, there has been a failure to consistently articulate and popularize them in a way that they can be used by community people to hold elected officials accountable. Nonetheless, activists who are aware of the struggle to develop these principles can allude to that history and continue the fight to institutionalize them within the body politic in Black America. The task is to devise and discuss a similar set of principles for African nations and their leaders in the Caribbean and the continent. Having such standards is particularly important because, unlike Black America, African leaders in the Caribbean and on the continent have the opportunity to control nation-states and the resources the available to them. And, as DuBois noted, Africa is the richest continent on earth.
I do not purport to be a political theorist but a few very basic ideas come to mind in terms of progressive principles of governance. Revolutionary thinkers like Franz Fanon, Amilcar Cabral and Kwame Nkrumah were clear that "national liberation," winning political independence from European colonialists was only the first step toward genuine freedom and self-determination for African people. "National reconstruction," the total "decolonization" or dismantling of the socio-economic and political structures of colonialism was the decisive step for African people to achieve real independence. It was not enough for Black faces to occupy and preside over the structures and institutions put in place by the colonizers. New societies must be constructed based on the values of the traditional way of life of African people. Central to this value system is the communal control of and sharing of resources to benefit the people. To warn against the dangers of "national liberation" without "national reconstruction," Nkrumah wrote Neo-Colonialism: The Last Stage of Imperialism. His basic premise was that political independence without ending the external control over a nation´s resources by the former colonial masters would only perpetuate dependency or amount to what has come to be known as "flag independence."
The principle to be extrapolated from this discussion is that African leaders should first and foremost be servants of the people who are committed to gaining and maintaining control over the resources of the nation to benefit the welfare and development of the masses of the people. This entails working for the creating and maintenance of African-centered structures of governance and economy, structures rooted in the humanistic values of the traditional way of life of African people. The acquisition of power is not for the purpose of pillaging and pocketing the nation´s resources or to permit the continued plunder of the nation´s resources by external forces. With Africa´s enormous wealth, It is an absolute disgrace that so many people live in abject poverty and misery. This is because far too many African leaders are out of synch with the principle of servant leadership and the idea of utilizing the nation´s resources to benefit the people. As a consequence, with rare exception what we have on the African continent are leaders and a political class that is enriching itself and permitting external forces to ravish Africa´s resources – all to the detriment of the masses. "Leaders" and regimes that steal, give away or squander the resources of the people/nation must be held accountable.
I can´t imagine that the foot soldiers, the ordinary people as well as activists and intellectuals, who waged struggles for independence, did so simply to see colonial rule replaced by authoritarian, dictatorial and despotic rulers and regimes. Tragically, the outcome of many liberations struggles has been ugly aberrations of the people´s dreams to be free and self-determining. Not only are vast numbers of Africans "citizens" of countries where the rulers/regimes are pocketing, pilfering and giving away precious resources, all too often they have to suffer political repression or an absence of meaningful and effective channels to participate in the decisions that affect their lives. As matter of principle African people should demand and expect the creation of inclusive structures and institutions which encourage, facilitate and maximize participation in political life of the nation.
I mention "inclusive" because many African states are simple reflections of the boundaries and divisions imposed by European colonialists when they carved up the continent at the Congress of Berlin in 1884. The colonizers had no respect for ethnic/national boundaries and therefore created colonies which artificially included portions of territory from distinct ethnic nations. This set the stage for potential tensions/conflicts between ethnic groups once independence was won/ granted. Emulating "democratic" systems that utilize "winner take all" procedures are likely to exacerbate divisions between ethnic groups. Indeed, what we have witnessed too often are African rulers who play various ethnic groups off against each other while utilizing their ethnic bases to dominate governments and utilize the bureaucracy and public till to benefit and enrich themselves and their ethnic compatriots. This is not a prescription for healing and building national cohesion. As a matter of principle, African people should demand the enactment of laws that require inclusion of all ethnic groups in every branch and body of the government. Indeed, "coalition governments" should be the order of the day when a nation is comprised of diverse ethnic groups. Inclusive, meaningful participation in the affairs of state is a benchmark for good governance and leadership.
Finally, respect for basic human rights must be a hallmark of African leadership. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is a good yard stick to measure adherence to or progress on this principle. Much of what is discussed above is consistent with the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights of UDHR. Not only must citizens have avenues to express their views including opposition and dissent, the arbitrary detention, intimidation, torture, brutalization and killing of one´s own people by rulers and regimes is intolerable. And, to reiterate my basic thesis, no matter how "progressive" one´s rhetoric or record as an anti-imperialist and Pan Africanist, it does not exempt a ruler/regime from criticism or repudiation based on the failure to be accountable to principles of progressive governance in the treatment of one´s own people. That´s why I could oppose the U.S. backed NATO assault on Libya without hailing/embracing Gaddafi as a hero.
Devising progressive principles of Pan African governance does not mean that we expect perfection from imperfect human beings, nor the emergence of utopian regimes. It means we should have standards by which we judge, approve and disapprove of rulers/regimes. It is interesting how activists and organizers give rulers/regimes a pass on repressive practices they would never accept/tolerate in the U.S., e.g., bans on the right to peaceful assembly. In some respects a personal guide is to ask yourself would you be content to live in a nation or under a ruler if you were in the opposition. Rulers and regimes will have their knots and warts, they will not be perfect, but as proponents of the Black freedom/liberation struggle, we must remember our goal should be to create just and humane societies!

The probe into Miami athletics is growing, with the university looking into the eligibility of 15 athletes who may have accepted improper benefits from a rogue booster.
Miami President Donna Shalala did not reveal any names of the players under investigation as she released a video statement Monday. The booster, convicted Ponzi scheme architect Nevin Shapiro, told Yahoo Sports for an article published last week that 12 current football players and one men's basketball player got money, gifts and other items from him.
The football players who were named by Shapiro in interviews with Yahoo Sports are Jacory Harris, Vaughn Telemaque, Ray Ray Armstrong, Travis Benjamin, Aldarius Johnson, Marcus Forston, Olivier Vernon, Marcus Robinson, Adewale Ojomo, Dyron Dye, JoJo Nicholas and Sean Spence. Shapiro also alleged to Yahoo Sports that he paid $10,000 to ensure that basketball player DeQuan Jones signed with the Hurricanes.
Most, if not all, the current football players Shapiro named would likely be major contributors if they get to take the field.
Citing the ongoing investigation, school officials would not say Monday if any of those players have been cleared to play, or who the additional names linked to the investigation are.
"The Miami athletic compliance staff, in a joint effort with the NCAA, is now beginning the process of reviewing the eligibility of 15 current student-athletes," Shalala said. "With the season fast approaching I know our players, coaches and fans are eager to know the results. The process, however, must be deliberate and thorough to ensure its integrity."

Going hunting Me and rhona all dressed up ready for the hunt http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/...psed23e2cc.jpg |
I am a little confused. If it's winter, why is she wearing a fly mask? and the trees have green leaves on them. you look super; so well turned out. even your makeup looks good. |
Thanks :) She has a fly mask on because she's a slight head shaker and when the sun is low in the winter it makes her head shaking a bit worst so with her wearing a fly mask it helps the situation a little bit . |
very nice !! |
I grew up in NZ and I used to love watching the hunt clippity clop through town and see them running through the fields across the farms:-) |
Soo much fun, very jealous. You guys look great! |
Thank you for the comments guys :) Posted via Mobile Device |

Desolate and uninhabited blocks are strange places to build handicapped-accessible sidewalks - especially when they are soon to be bulldozed.
But that is exactly what the city has done in the Rockaways - and it's not the first time.
Wheelchair-accessible sidewalk corners were installed in May along a 20-block stretch of Edgemere Ave. in the Edgemere neighborhood.
Those barren blocks between Beach 35th and Beach 57th Sts. are part of the Arverne Urban Renewal Area and are slated to be made over as part of the 1,650-unit Arverne East megadevelopment starting next year.
Rockaway wheelchair cuts will be torn out by developers - again
Edgemere's new curbs - built in ramp-like fashion to allow wheelchair-users unimpeded access from street to sidewalk - connect crumbling and weed-infested sidewalks - or, in many places, no sidewalks at all.
Though few pedestrians walk along the deserted stretch, those who could be found said the new curbs were unnecessary, given the dilapidated state of the sidewalks.
