About the Commission in Scotland
This section gives an introduction to the Commission's remit in Scotland including details of our business plan and Scotland Committee.
Our work in Scotland
The Equality and Human Rights Commission in Scotland is working to eliminate discrimination, reduce inequality, protect and promote human rights and to build good relations, ensuring that everyone has a fair chance to participate in society.
The Commission believes that everyone should be treated fairly and with dignity. Unfortunately this doesn't always happen.
Discrimination and disadvantage are still common across Scotland. We don't all have equal chances in life and some forms of discrimination are deep-rooted.
For example:
Some disabled pupils don't always have equal access to education or extra-curricular activities at schools. A woman may receive less pay than a male colleague who is doing the same work as her, simply because she is a woman. Or an older person may be overlooked for a job or promotion, even though they may be more experienced than someone younger.
Sometimes people make decisions that are unfair or choose to ignore the rights of others even when this is against the law.
This is why the Equality and Human Rights Commission is here. We aim to help Scotland develop in a way that values the ideals that most of us hold dear – respect, freedom, equality, dignity and fairness.
These are also the core principles that underpin 'human rights' – the basic rights and freedoms that belong to all of us as human beings.
The Commission has a remit not just to protect equality, but to promote it across what the law describes as the nine "protected" characteristics. These are:
• Age
• Disability
• Sex
• Race
• Religion or belief
• Pregnancy and maternity
• Marriage and civil partnership
• Sexual orientation
• Gender reassignment
Where we find that discrimination is taking place, or that someone is being treated unfairly because of their identity, we can use our legal powers to make positive change in practices, behaviours and the law.
We work closely with the Scottish Human Rights Commission, with whom we share our human rights remit in Scotland.
More information about what the Commission does can be found in our About Us section. Read more
Through all of our work - with the public sector, the voluntary sector, the private sector, the Scottish Government, with other equalities organisations and with individuals - the Commission wants to help create a society in which everyone is given the opportunity to achieve their full potential.
More information on specific projects and areas of work the Commission does in Scotland can be found in the Our Work in Scotland section. Read more

As all Minnesotans were sweating during this weekend's extreme high temperatures and dew points, so was my cool basement and probably yours too.
While doing laundry last night, I noticed water in my basement where the concrete floor meets the wall. Then I found some water in a storage closet. Then I saw that my basement bathroom was wet.
Surprisingly, I still have to learn the necessity of dehumidifiers the hard way.
If you don't yet have a dehumidifier for your home, I strongly recommend one to prevent mildew and mold cause by buildup of too much moisture. They start at $159.95, which is a pittance compared to water damage.
I'll be plugging in my new Frigidaire dehumidifier tonight and using a simple garden hose attachment to help it drain directly into my laundry tub (note: the dehumidifier must be elevated, as the water won't drain "up"). Otherwise, these portable dehumidifiers are better than your last one, with a carrying handle and a no-splash design.
Take note that dehumidifiers are seasonal items not widely available throughout the year, meaning that supplies run low at most retailers during hot, humid periods of the year. Don't wait till you find water in your basement; call any of our 7 home appliance stores to confirm stock of your desired size (25 pint, 50 pint or 75 pint).
They're still not whisper quiet, but certainly, they're quieter than yours was growing up.

PLASTIC TOP FOR TRAY ( 1020 FLAT) 7" high, clear top for above trays used to retain moisture. Extra Heavy Duty!THE PICTURE MAY VARY SLIGHTLY TO THE ACTUAL PRODUCT. You may want to cut holes in the top of this dome to let air escape. Likewise, you may want to cut some small holes along the base where it meets the bottom tray. This will allow air to travel in the small holes and up through the ones in the top. This is called convection venting and will allow for a small but steady flow of air through the cuttings or seedlings and will help eliminate mold and mildew without drying the plant leaves. This procedure is mandatory when using a heat mat. I can hear you thinking. Where do you cut the holes? The dome's top has to two flat squares that can be cut out and the at the bottom there are six dimpled squares that can be cut out.

Liberty News
Military Emphasis Week sparks patriotism
|Capt. Scotty Smiley shares his experience of tragedy and triumph.
Military pride was evident at Liberty University as students, faculty, and staff gathered for a special Military Emphasis Week convocation on Wednesday. As one of America's top military-friendly schools, Liberty dedicates a week each year to recognize and inspire support for the members of our Armed Forces.
During convocation, students heard from Capt. Scotty Smiley, who became the Army's first active-duty, blind officer. A graduate of West Point, Smiley was serving as a platoon leader in Iraq in April 2005 when he permanently lost his vision as a result of an attack from a suicide car bomber.
Smiley spoke of the tragedy he faced during combat and, as a result, his bitterness toward God.
"I woke up two weeks later in Walter Reid Army Medical Center with my life torn from me," he shared. "I said [my world] went black, but it didn't go black just literally, it went black spiritually."
The day that Smiley learned that he would be blind for the rest of his life, he said he began to "push forward" and claim the promise of Philippians 4:13 that he could do all things through Christ.
"It doesn't matter if you are blind … and it doesn't matter what disabilities you have, God still has a purpose for each and every one of us."
Smiley, who has released a book about his life titled Hope Unseen, challenged students to look beyond the trials they face and to cling to the hope they can only find in God.
|Dr. Tim Lee was the main speaker at Wednesday's convocation.
"I don't believe that it's economic hope, I don't believe it's social hope, and it's definitely not political hope, it's spiritual hope."
Vietnam veteran and member of Liberty's Board of Trustees Dr. Tim Lee also addressed the crowd of more than 10,000.
Lee lost both of his legs in 1971 while serving with the United States Marine Corps during the Vietnam War. He views his disability not as a tragedy, but as an opportunity to share God's love through his evangelical ministry.
"Some of you have been dealt hardships, some of you have had things come at you, and some of you have become bitter, and angry, and mad at God," said Lee. "My friend, you don't have to be bitter, you don't have to be angry, you don't have to be mad at God; you can have victory right here today."
|Veterans are honored at the start of Wednesday's convocation.
Lee said he has never been bitter. "I am lucky to be alive," he said. "I stepped on a mine that could have blown me to a thousand different pieces, but God spared my life."
Other campus events throughout the week include military recruiters, a trip to the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford, candlelight tribute service, pre-game tailgating and halftime tribute during the Nov. 6 home football game, a post-traumatic stress disorder awareness meeting, and a special Veterans Luncheon.

Land of Fire and borders the Land of Rivers and Amegakure. Its government leader is the Wind Daimyō. The country covers a vast realm, but that realm is largely composed of deserts. Because there is very little rainfall throughout the year, the people of the country live in villages built on one of the desert's many oases. Despite the country's extremely harsh environment, it has a large population. Although they have warred with each other in the past, the Land of Wind is on good terms with the Land of Fire, with a great deal of trade going on between the two countries.The Land of Wind (風の国, Kaze no Kuni) is one of the more prominent countries in the series. It is located to the south-west of the
The "Sand Dumpling" (砂団子, Suna Dango; English TV "Sand Dango") is a regional speciality of the Land of Wind. A unique characteristic of the Sand Dumpling is the soy flour, which is prepared especially to resemble sand. They apparently taste very good.[1]
Sunagakure Edit
- Main article: Naruto:Sunagakure
Sunagakure (砂隠れの里, Sunagakure no Sato; Literally meaning "Village Hidden by Sand") is the hidden village of the Land of Wind. As one of the Five Great Shinobi Countries, Sunagakure has a Kage as its leader known as the Kazekage, who resides in a spherical structure in the centre of the village. There have been five Kazekage, the most recent being Gaara. The Puppet Technique, and from their performance in the Fourth Shinobi World War the Cloth Binding Technique seem to be common techniques among Sunagakure ninja. Shinobi from this village believe that the accomplishment of a mission predominates the lives of the ninja trying to accomplish it. As such, they are known to be ruthless in battle, meaning to them that failure is not an option. Should failure seem inevitable, a Suna shinobi would almost surely try to make a success of their mission in some way or another as seen when Kankurō secretly retrieved from a piece of Sasori's clothing as a means to track Akatsuki to their hideout.
Trivia Edit
- In Naruto the Movie 2: Legend of the Stone of Gelel, Haido's Knights attacked the Land of Wind in their quest of searching for the Gelel vein, meaning the country is close to Temujin's Continent.

The head of Chesterfield College has announced his retirement.
Trevor Clay, 57, will leave his role as principal at the end of this academic year after more than 14 years at the college.
Mr Clay, who became head in July 2012 following the mysterious suspension of former chief Judith McArthur, has worked in further and higher education for a total of 27 years.
During his time as principal, the college has helped more than 4,500 students find apprenticeships. Mr Clay also oversaw nearly 50 job cuts.
The dad-of-two, of Hucknall, said: "It's been a difficult decision to retire and one that has not been taken lightly.
"You never have to ask yourself why you work in a college as the education and training we provide is absolutely essential to individuals and businesses alike.
"However, I have that increasingly rare opportunity to retire before my state pension age and to be able to commit more of my time to other organisations and activities with which I am involved."
He added: "I will certainly miss Chesterfield – it's a great town.
"I wish everyone connected with the college and the town well."
Frank Smith, chair of Chesterfield College Corporation, said: "Trevor has made a huge contribution to the development of the college and established the foundations we need to achieve our ultimate goal of being outstanding.
"I would like to wish him and his wife Marcia a very happy and lengthy retirement."
Mr Smith added the a recruitment drive to find a new principal will start immediately.
• Businesses are invited to a breakfast meeting at the Proact Stadium between 7.30am and 9am on March 27 to find out more about Chesterfield College's plans for a new technical college. To reserve a place, email firstname.lastname@example.com

It has been claimed by some
that the activities of partisan ranger bands in northern and western Virginia,
especially those of John S. Mosby, may have prevented a Union victory in the
summer or fall of 1864. A Virginian with a penchant for violence, Mosby had been
practicing law at the outbreak of the war. His assignments included: private,
lst Virginia Cavalry (1861); first lieutenant, 1st Virginia Cavalry
(February 1862); Captain, PACS (March 15, 1863); Major, PACS (March 26, 1863);
major, 43rd Virginia Cavalry Battalion June 10, 1863); Lieutenant
Colonel, 43rd Virginia Cavalry Battalion January 21, 1864); and
Colonel, Mosby's (Va.) Cavalry Regiment (December 7, 1864).
Originally an enlisted man and officer in the 1st Virginia Cavalry, he came into conflict with that unit's colonel, "Grumble Jones," and joined JEB Stuart's staff as a scout. During the Peninsula Campaign he paved the way for Stuart's famous ride around McClellan. After a brief period of captivity in July 1862 he rejoined Stuart and was rewarded with the authority to raise a band of partisans for service in the Loudoun Valley in northern Virginia. Originally a battalion, his command was raised to a regiment in the last months of the war.
In the meantime he managed to wreak havoc among the Union supply lines, forcing field commanders to detach large numbers of troops to guard their communications. His forays took him within the lines guarding Washington, with Mosby himself often doing the advance scouting in disguise.
Early in 1863, with 29 men, he rode into Fairfax Court House and roused Union General Edwin H. Stoughton from bed with a slap on the rear end. Following the capture of Generals Crook and Kelley by McNeil's partisans, Mosby complimented them, stating that he would have to ride into Washington and bring out Abraham Lincoln to top their success. On another occasion he came near capturing the train on which Grant was traveling.
The disruption of supply lines and the constant disappearance of couriers frustrated army, and lesser-group, commanders to such a degree that some took to the summary execution of guerrillas, i.e. partisan rangers. George Custer executed six of Mosby's men in 1864, and the partisan chief retaliated with seven of Custer's. A note attached to one of the bodies stated that Mosby would treat all further captives as prisoners of war unless Custer committed some new act of cruelty. The killings stopped.
With the surrender of Lee, Mosby simply disbanded his command on April 20, 1865, rather than formally surrender. While the partisans were certainly a nuisance to federal commanders, it is an open question as to how effective they were in prolonging the conflict. Many Southerners were very critical of the partisans, only some Southerners excepting Mosby's command.
Not pardoned until 1866, Mosby practiced law and befriended Grant. For supporting Grant, a Republican, in the 1868 and 1872 elections, he earned the emnity of many Southerners. He received an appointment as U.S. consul in Hong Kong and other government posts. (Jones, Virgil Carrington, Ranger Mosby)

A new study of the impacts of proposed dairy policy legislation on federal nutrition programs has found millions of dollars in hidden costs. Behind typical estimates of the price of the National Milk Producers Federation's Foundation for the Future dairy policy proposal are large and unintended additional taxpayer costs, reductions in the effectiveness of federal nutrition programs, and reduced access to the programs for low-income women and children.
The study, commissioned by the International Dairy Foods Association and conducted by a Ph.D. economist at M + R Strategic Services, found that, had the program been in place in 2009, more than 178,000 qualifying participants would have lost access to the already strained Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program, unless $92 million more in spending was appropriated. The proposals would also have affected USDA's donation programs for food banks and senior centers. An estimated 50 million fewer pounds of cheese would have been available to the commodity distribution programs had the policies been in place in 2009.
"With one in six Americans currently living in poverty, we need a cost-effective federal safety net more than ever," said Connie Tipton, president and CEO of IDFA. "This report shows that Foundation for the Future and Rep. Collin Peterson's proposal would impose unnecessary hidden costs on taxpayers and would significantly reduce our nation's ability to help those who are most in need."
Using the Food and Agricultural Research Policy Institute (FAPRI) analysis of the Dairy Market Stabilization Program and the NMPF estimate of the effect of its proposed changes to Federal Milk Marketing Orders on (beverage) milk prices, the report found that the hidden costs of the proposal's price increases on the federal nutrition assistance programs and their beneficiaries would have totaled $655 million in 2009 alone. Taxpayers also would have been hit with a previously unrecognized $379 million increase in federal spending triggered by mandatory inflationary adjustments in the nutrition programs.
"The increased costs to the federal government are several times larger than any alleged budgetary savings from the Foundation for the Future," noted Tipton. "NMPF is asking Congress to shift the costs of their proposal onto our nation's consumers, but they apparently forgot that our government buys a lot of milk."
The full study is available here.

Official Google Blog: Google Voice invites on their way
I have been using GrandCentral (now Google Voice) for over a year now. L has been on the invite list for about a year and she just got her invite. It does have a mobile app. And this is an application that still could use some serious upgrades. But it is invaluable to me as a traveler. Right now I have several recruiters over about 6 companies. Some of them get annoying & pushy. That's when they get put on voicemail only for a little while. That's right. I don't even know they called until I get a voicemail alert. It's handy. Plus if I have a second home phone. I can make it ring that only and not use up my mobile minutes. Or I can get a new phone number. And not have to tell anyone. I can have a different answering messages for my friends than I do business contacts. That "Whazzzzup chicas?" is great for your friends, but you don't want an employeer or a coworker to get the wrong impression. Plus if you work in an office it can ring your office phone. Video kinda explains some of the features.
I have written about them before so I'll just link to the previous posts.

Marina's Melancholy: Longing for Love
Andersen Douwa Ningyo Hime (アンデルセン童話 にんぎょ姫), or Andersen Fairy Tale: The Little Mermaid, is a 1975 Japanese animated feature from Toei Animation.
Also the name of the second ending theme song (written in katakana, ニンギョヒメ) for the 2002 Chobits anime television series sung by Chii's Japanese voice actress Tanaka Rie (田中 理恵), "Ningyo Hime" (「人魚姫」) - which literally means "Mermaid Princess" in Japanese - is the Japanese title for Hans Christian Andersen's famous fairy tale of unrequited love, The Little Mermaid, or in the original Danish, Den lille Havfrue.
The sad, wistful 1975 Toei animated feature version of The Little Mermaid is much closer to the spirit of the 1837 Andersen tale than the happy, joyful 1989 Disney animated feature version. It is, in fact, I think even more sad than the Andersen tale, which at least ends with the hope of heavenly salvation for our lovelorn little mermaid princess.
(I've read that the original ending of the Andersen tale was far more sad, culminating with the Little Mermaid killing herself and dissolving into the foam of the sea, but Andersen was forced to tack on a "happy ending" by his editors who felt that it was too tragic for a children's story. In any case, the Little Mermaid's unrequited love is said to mirror Andersen's own very unhappy love life.)
A characteristically Japanese lyrical melancholy pervades Andersen Douwa Ningyo Hime, as manifested in Marina's (the Little Mermaid's) beautiful but sad song of love, "Matteita Hito" (「待っていた人」), or "The One I've Been Waiting For," sung by Oosugi Kumiko (大杉久美子):

New York's leading small business association, the National Federation of Independent Business, has endorsed State Sen. George Maziarz for re-election in the 62nd Senate district.
"George Maziarz has long been a staunch defender of small business in the Legislature," said NFIB/New York State Director Mike Durant. "Senator Maziarz has stood with small business to help enact the property tax cap, reduce energy costs, and enact two consecutive fiscally responsible budgets. We look forward to continuing to work with the senator to reduce the cost of doing business and put New York on the path to economic revitalization."
NFIB's political support is based on the candidate's position and record on small-business issues. Maziarz's endorsement comes from the NFIB/New York SAFE (Save America's Free Enterprise) Trust, the political action committee for NFIB/New York's membership. The endorsement puts the considerable grassroots support of the state's small businesses behind the Maziarz campaign.
NFIB is the nation's leading small business association, with offices in Washington, D.C., and all 50 state capitals. Founded in 1943 as a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization, NFIB gives small and independent business owners a voice in shaping the public policy issues that affect their business. NFIB's powerful network of grassroots activists send their views directly to state and federal lawmakers through a unique, member-only ballot, thus playing a critical role in supporting America's free enterprise system. NFIB's mission is to promote and protect the right of its members to own, operate and grow their businesses.

David Colson completed his first Little Giant Summer Soccer Camp Thursday. The 9-year-old had fun, and is ready to come back next season.
"I was able to get to meet a lot of friends," Colson said. "I learned how to do a lot of 1-v-1 stuff and how to make moves on the offender."
The Wabash Little Giant and Little Little Giant soccer camp concluded Thursday when the 4- through 10-year-olds showed their parents what they had learned during the four-day camp. It was the third year Wabash coach Roberto Giannini put on the camp that around 25 players attended. In previous years, the camp was for 6- to 10-year-olds. This year, Giannini decided to open it up to 4- and 5-year-olds.
"We opened it up to 4- and 5-year-olds because most of them had brothers and sisters in the camp and they would just be sitting there waiting for them to get done and they were itching to get on the field," Giannini said. "This just gives them exposure to the game."
The 4- and 5-year-olds had a week of fun activities that included a maze game, retrieval drills and coordination and balance drills. The older campers go through technique and instruction and at the end would play a scrimmage game.
Giannini said most of the 25 campers are returners from last year.
"We want them to have fun with the activities, but at the same time we want them to learn something," Giannini said. "Having fun and learning something go hand in hand. Over the four days we want them to learn about a dozen things that they didn't know before. Because the learning process is just as important as having fun."
Assistant coach Jeff Oleck and Aaron Blessing, Giannini's former assistant who is now the girls coach ay McCutcheon, are helping Giannini. Oleck, a four-year starting goalie at Valparaiso University, helped with the older campers. Blessing worked with the younger players.
"I learned how to do a lot of soccer moves like step-overs and things like that," 11-year-old Nathan Bowers said. Bowers said his favorite part of the camp was scrimmaging.
"We worked on a lot of 6-on-6 stuff," Bowers said. "Sometimes the coach even plays with us."
Wabash's soccer camps continue next week when Giannini is hosting a team camp. Southmont and Western Boone's boys teams and Southmont's girls team will be at the week-long camp. Mike Aycock, who is the women's soccer coach at St. Mary's of the Woods College, will help instruct the Southmont girls team.
Along with teaching soccer skills on the field, Giannini also will talk to the players about the recruiting process from the college perspective. He also will talk about nutrition and weight conditioning and overall behavior and attitude.
Giannini said the team camp also serves as a good recruiting tool for him.
Recent Harrison High School graduate Ian Kelly came to the team camp as an individual last year. Kelly is part of Wabash's incoming freshman class.
The team camp runs 5-8 p.m.

FC Cologne know Arsenal have been tracking Lukas Podolski, it has been claimed.
The German striker has been in fine form this season; netting on 10 occasions in 14 appearances for club and country and, as ever, is being linked with a move away from the RheinEnergieStadion.
According to reports, Arsene Wenger sent Arsenal scouts to watch Podolski on Friday night as he scours the market for support for Robin van Persie.
And a source at the Bundesliga club confirmed the Gunners had indeed been monitoring the 26-year-old former Bayern Munich forward over the weekend.
"We are aware Arsenal are watching Podolski and they were at Friday's game," the source told the Daily Express.
Wenger is said to have identified the acquisition of another goalscorer as a January priority as he attempts to life the workload on van Persie.
The Arsenal captain has scored 21 goals in 23 games this term, and will be rested for the Carling Cup clash with Manchester City on Tuesday night.

Secondary tremors that come after the main tremor in a seismic series. The number of secondary tremors is usually directly proportional to the size of the main tremor. The tremors are less violent than the main event and the hypocentres concentrated in a limited area of the earth's crust surrounding the hypocentre dof the main event.
AG - Maximum horizontal acceleration on hard and flat ground
Parametre describing basic dangerousness for reference seismic action on ordinary works (Class II of Building Techinical Regulations).
Conformity standards
In general terms, it is the conditions of safety, hygiene, health and energy efficiency of buildings and facilities, evaluated on the basis of existing legislation. In seismic emergency, following an event, the "judgement of conformity" issued by the technicians who work during the emergency, is the possibility to continue using the building for functions that was used, reasonably protecting human life in case of a new tremor of intensity comparable to that already happened. In order to give the opinion of usability, engineers are engaged in the relief of the damage. The result has validity up to a shock later that significantly modifies the resistance of the building or until the ix of the building is complete, after which a technician prepares a final report on the practicability of the same building.
It is a mineral common in nature and due to its resistance to fire, heat and the action of chemical and biological agents it has been used for many purposes (in industry, building, etc.). However, since 1992 in Italy its use has been forbidden as it represents a potential hazard due to the dispersal of particles into the environment that when inhaled caused very serious diseases in man.
Local amplification
Modification in amplitude, frequency and duration of seismic shaking due to the specific lithostratigraphic and morphological conditions of a site. This can be quantified by calculating the ratio of the seismic motion on the site surface to that observed for the same seismic event on a hypothetical rigid rock outcrop with horizontal morphology. Any ratio greater than 1 is local amplification.
Noise analysis
A method of examining the subsoil based on analysis of ambient seismic noise (micro tremors), small amplitude seismic waves caused by natural or man-made sources such as the waves in the sea, the wind, traffic, etc. By measuring the frequency of ground vibration, this analysis determines the thickness of "soft" surface soils, when the propagation velocity of shear waves Vs or the thickness of the surface is known. In both cases, measurement of micro-tremors permits subsoil geological model reconstruction used in seismic microzonation studies.
Seismic refraction analysis
A method of studying the subsoil based on artificial generation of seismic waves – e.g. sledge hammer, explosions – and measurement of the arrival times of the waves at a series of receptors (geophones) positioned in a line. The waves used are those subject to refraction phenomena along the surface of passage between means that increase in density with depth. This kind of analysis is very useful for defining the thickness of "soft" surface soils.
Geognostic analysis on site
Unlike laboratory tests, the geognostic analysis can be performed directly on the site of investigation, eg. penetration tests, geophysical tests.
Relating to man and his activities. The word comes from the Greek "anthropos" meaning man.
Transformed or adapted environment either to meet the needs of humans, or by human activity.
Sheltered areas for the population
Places for the installation of emergency dwelling areas with sufficient dimensions to accommodate at least one tent city for 500 people and field services. They are located close to water and electricity supplies, equipped with a waste water drainage system, and in areas not subject to risks of flooding, landslides, collapse of rocky masses, etc. The areas must be near a road junction or in any case easily reached, and the route must be marked on the map.
Assembly areas for relief operators and resources
Places in which the rational deployment of relief operators and resources in the intervention areas is guaranteed. They are located in safe areas in terms of risk of landslides, collapse and flooding, near water and electricity supply systems as well as waste water networks, and can be reached by way of safe routes, even with large vehicles. The Mayor of a municipality in which a MOC, Mixed Operations Centre, is set up, must identify at least one assembly area and mark the best route to gain access to it on the map. Relief for Municipalities served by the MOC depart from these areas.
Waiting areas for the population
Emergency reception areas for the population, which may be located in squares, open spaces, car parks, public or privates areas deemed suitable and not subject to risks – landslides, flooding, collapse – accessible by way of a safe route, possibly pedestrian, which is marked on the map. In these areas, the population receives basic information on the event as well as emergency comfort and support, as they wait for the sheltered areas to be set up.
Emergency areas
Areas to be used for civil protection in the event of an emergency. These may be one of three types:
- Assembly areas for relief operators and resources
- Waiting areas for the population
- Sheltered areas for the population
Array (seismic antenna)
Device composed by seismometers or geophones following a specific geometry, that collects data in syncronous way within a central unit.
Training activities
Activities aimed at checking the readiness and efficiency of the operating units and components of civil protection, through simultion exercises, verification of civil protection plans and, in general, practical verification of procedures to be followed in emergencies. (art. 6-11, L. 225/1992).
Spontaneous combustion
Phenomenon linked to fermenting processes that lead to a production of heat and gas, which, when exposed to oxygen, may become a point of ignition and start a fire. Spontaneous combustion hardly occurs in woods.
Document issued, depending on the competences, by the DPC or by the Regions to call attention to possible additional and specific events reported in the Bulletins Monitoring weather and/or criticalities. May relate to events already planned as particularly unusual or critical, or events in a manner not expected, but with time consistent with the scope and effectiveness of monitoring and verification of instrumental effects on the land, they evolve towards higher levels of criticality.
The document is made ??available to the National Service of Civil Protection, so that, on the basis of procedures uniquely and individually developed and adopted by the regions, are activated different alert levels that correspond to appropriate preventive measures and emergency management.
Notice of regional criticality
Document issued by the peripheral Functional Centre (when activated) or the central Functional Centre (based on the principle of subsidiarity) describing a general evaluation of ongoing events with moderate or high criticality level. The notice shows the type of risk and criticality level expected for at least the following 24 hours in each alert zone. The competence of the notice is of the President of the Regional Council or the delegated body - as provided for by the relevant regional regulations.
Notice of national weather
Document issued by the Civil Protection Department in the case of several regional weather alerts and/or weather events of importance beyond the regional scale.
The national weather warning is therefore the integration of regional weather alerts and assessments carried out by the Department in relation to the same regions whenever the relevant peripheral Functional Centre(s) has not yet been activated or is not autonomous regarding weather forecasts.
Notice of regional weather
Document issued by the peripheral Functional, when it gets activated and is autonomous in regard to weather forecasts, in case of events of recognized importance on a regional scale.

Some like their pizza cut in squares, while others swear by slices. For as long as we've been stuffing our faces with delicious food, there have been conflicts about the way we eat it. Addressing such fervent foodie issues, we are proud to introduce Food fight.
The question: Should you take pictures of your food at dinner?
Look at those eggs Benedict. See how the Valencia filter brings out the contrast in the English muffin's nooks and crannies? Yeah, you better "like" that Instagram. When done tactfully, snapping a photo of a dish only takes five seconds, and it's a quick, virtual thumbs-up to a restaurant. Don't be a jerk, though: take the photo, then wait until after the meal to fiddle with the editing. For those of us who are really into our food, it's a great way to remember and share a great dish with friends. Plus, food is a nice diversion from the thousands of cat photos clogging my feed. --Kate Bernot
There was a time when I took so many pics of my food that I don't think I'm allowed back at several restaurants to this day. I get it. I wonder, why do we do this in the first place? To share with friends that yes, we are eating food today? To humble brag about access to the new hot spot? To stunt for people we want to feel superior to? Enough! Don't take a picture unless it's a rare or important dining experience. At one of those places where they give you a soda can filled with ginger-infused air? Snap away. Otherwise, just eat the damn food. --Ernest Wilkins

The Matterhorn, the king of mountains
The Matterhorn, is the most-photographed mountain in the world. It is myth and emblem for Alpinists and photographers alike, as well as Switzerland's most famous landmark and symbol.
The Matterhorn has a magic attraction, both for day-trippers who love the view and for Alpinists who love a challenge and dream of climbing the peak of the Matterhorn at least once in their lives. The most popular ascent route is the Hörnligrat.
Thanks to its shape and its free-standing position, the Matterhorn is considered to be the epitome of a mountain. There is no better-known mountain in the world whose natural shape is so close to a pyramid. 100 million years ago, enormous forces brought Africa closer to Europe. 50 million years later, as the rock masses folded and deformed, the Matterhorn was born from the rock thrusting upwards.
The Hörnli hut, the base camp of the Matterhorn, is the focal point of activity at the foot of the Matterhorn Peak and one of the key sites in the history of alpinism. Visitors from all over the world spend the night here before scaling the Matterhorn.

We've now seen three full-dress debates among the Republican politicians who want to be the next president of the United States, and here's what we've learned:
They all believe taxes are too high, even though federal taxes are lower as a percentage of the U.S. economy than any time in the last 60 years. They all believe onerous environmental regulations are preventing economic recovery, though few economists would agree. They believe President Obama's healthcare law is getting in the way of recovery, though most of its provisions don't really take effect until 2014. And they believe, correctly, that Social Security and Medicare are heading into fiscal crises — but in most cases, they haven't offered specific solutions.
In other words, on the issues Americans are most worried about — reviving the economy, creating jobs and reducing the federal deficit — there's not much of a debate inside the GOP. There's a robust argument about just how much of the federal government to dismantle — Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry say they'd get rid of most of it, Mitt Romney only some of it — but to most voters, that's a narrow, sectarian divide. This year's Republican Party starts roughly where Ronald Reagan was in 1980 and extends rightward from there. It's a party with no discernible moderate wing.
Yes, there are disagreements within the party on foreign policy (between hawks who want to stay in Afghanistan and budget-cutters who want to get out) and on immigration (not so much a debate as an opportunity to beat up Perry, who suffers under the handicap of actually having had to deal with the problem as governor of Texas). But those aren't the issues that will decide next year's election.
That's what we've learned. What haven't we learned?
Last week's debate in Florida lasted two full hours, but none of the nine would-be presidents found time to mention the global economic crisis, the swooning financial markets or the decline in the incomes of most Americans.
How would President Perry fix Social Security, which he's derided as a Ponzi scheme? He hasn't said. (Romney, to his credit, has at least proposed some fixes, including raising the retirement age.)
How would Presidents Romney, Perry or Bachmann fix Medicare, whose rising costs are the biggest threat to the federal budget over the next 25 years? They haven't said. Perry maintains vaguely that the problem can be solved by eliminating waste. Bachmann voted for the House budget proposal that would have changed Medicare to a voucher system but said that didn't mean she agrees with it. Romney mostly avoids the subject.
What would Presidents Romney, Perry or Bachmann do about healthcare after they repeal the Obama law? Not much, apparently, beyond kicking the issue back to the states.
What would they do to make the American economy more competitive beyond reducing regulations and lowering corporate taxes, goals even Obama has embraced? Most of them haven't said — although, to be fair, Romney has produced a 59-point economic plan that includes some sensible proposals.
Would they do anything to improve education beyond favoring charter schools and, in some cases, vouchers? They haven't said.
Are they concerned by the Census Bureau's report that the median household income of working Americans has been falling since 2000, and that more people are living in "deep poverty" than any time on record? If they are, they forgot to mention it.
Do they think the federal government should do anything to protect the environment? Not that anyone cared to mention. The only time the subject came up was in denunciations of the Environmental Protection Agency.
And don't get me started on foreign policy.
Of course, a debate can't be expected to cover every subject, even when it lasts two hours. And the television networks that run the events naturally try to focus the candidates on issues that might spark telegenic exchanges, such as the clash between Perry and others over immunization against the human papillomavirus.
Still, there's nothing to stop the candidates from changing the subject to something they'd rather talk about; politicians do that all the time.
Handicappers say the debates have been good for Romney; he's been more polished and quicker on his feet than Perry. But in the polls, Romney still has a hard time cracking 25%, which means he hasn't won the party's heart yet. Instead, the debates have mostly exposed his opponents' flaws.
Luckily for Romney, at least nine more debates have been scheduled, including two in October. But that may not be as good for the former Massachusetts governor as it looks.
Every Republican presidential candidate faces the same challenge if he hopes to win. As Richard M. Nixon supposedly advised Bob Dole many years ago: "Run like hell to the right in the primaries, then run like hell to the center."
But this year's GOP and its core of "tea party" believers are making that two-step more difficult than any time in recent memory. They've created a powerful magnetic field pulling every candidate to the right, Romney included.
If the general election were held today, Barack Obama — with his 40% approval rating and a national unemployment rate of 9% — wouldn't stand a chance. But if enough moderate and independent voters tune in to those next nine Republican debates, the GOP could manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory yet.

To 18 Neighborhood and Community Groups
Lincoln Mayor Don Wesely and the city Parks and Recreation Department will award grants from the Self-Help Program to 18 neighborhood associations and community groups Thursday, May 9 at the Mayor's Neighborhood Roundtable meeting in Room 113 at the County City Building. The meeting begins at 4:30 p.m., and the grants will be awarded at its conclusion about 5:30 p.m.
"Our park system is a source of pride for our entire community," said Mayor Wesely. "The Self-Help Program makes our city funds stretch farther because neighborhood volunteers provide the labor for these projects. The strong interest in the program shows that citizens are interested in improving their parks." Parks and Recreation Director Lynn Johnson said more than $75,000 in project requests were submitted for the $45,000 available through the Self-Help Program.
The following groups received Self-Help Program funding for 2002:
The Self-Help Program is funded through city general tax revenues and is approved by the City Council each year as part of the city budget process. The program typically provides for equipment and materials, and volunteers provide labor. Projects must be constructed on publicly owned property or involve programs available to the general public. The criteria for choosing which projects are funded include locations, neighborhood support for the project and consistency with park plans.
Meetings are held every September to share information about the Self-Help Program and to provide assistance in project planning and funding proposal development. Applications are submitted in October for review and prioritization. Projects are constructed during this spring and summer months.
Neighborhood groups and community organizations interested in developing a project proposal are encouraged to contact Larry Group at the Parks and Recreation Department at 441-8253 to be placed on a contact list for the upcoming 2002 program.

Buying a line printer instead of a dot matrix printer, serial matrix printer, or band printer has significant benefits, both in terms of cost and reliability. A line matrix printer represents a significant upgrade in equipment quality. Every aspect of the line matrix printer is designed to deliver higher reliability, faster throughput, and greater resistance to rough handling and hazardous environmental conditions. A smart financial choice, line matrix provides lower cost over the life of the product.
In production environments consumable costs dominate the total cost of ownership. As your printing volume increases, line matrix saves you more.
Printronix printers are managed individually or in groups with PrintNet Suite. PrintNet Suite includes two powerful printer management applications:
Web Panel - offers direct connection via any web browser to a single printer in your network.
PrintNet Enterprise - a powerful printer management application for IT Managers. With PrintNet Enterprise you can implement mass changes, maintain total visibility to your printer network, receive error alerts and more. For example, with one action, PrintNet Enterprise can send new software or fonts to all the printers in the operation with no required operator oversight. This flexible design gives IT Managers the ability to manage all or one with a single click.

NASHVILLE, Tenn.-Coach Bill Taylor is sending the Lipscomb Lady Bisons south this Saturday for a highly-competitive meet.
Seven teams regionally ranked in the South region and one regionally ranked team from the South Central region will be among the 15 teams participating Saturday morning in the Crimson Classic in Tuscaloosa, Ala. The 5-K women's race will begin at 9:10 at the Harry Pritchett Running Course near the Alabama Arboretum.
"We are pretty excited about this meet," Taylor said. "There should be solid competition. At the same time, it will be really nice to be in a smaller field with much more moderate competition than we have faced.
"Toledo and Louisville were big, dense fast races with seven or more nationally-ranked teams in each. It was just a bit too much for where we are as a program right now. We got beat up in those two races, but we are going to be far better for it both now and in the future. As of today though I see everything where it needs to be in our progression."
The Lady Bisons slipped to second this week in the Atlantic Sun poll, but they only trail North Florida by one point.
"Based on how we have raced and how North Florida has raced, we should be ranked second right now. I don't have a problem with that at all. Fortunately, rankings don't determine the actual results and I don't think our girls even notice the rankings. We don't talk about them."
Taylor wants to see a tougher mental approach from his runners, the defending Atlantic Sun Champions, this week. The conference meet is Oct. 27.
"Physical preparation hasn't been a problem," Taylor said. "We've had great practices all season. Our issues have been mental...being a team that won the A-Sun last year and wanting to be a nationals team this year. So the A-Sun wasn't really on their minds in the last two meets. It wasn't a motivator like it was last year."
Taylor knows his team has the ability to win the conference again and to go to nationals in November. But his runners have been put in a position where the expectations for the program have quickly increased.
"The girls haven't been mentally ready for that next level," Taylor said. "They have the talent to go to nationals, but you have to develop the mentality and confidence too. That is a process, especially for a program that has risen as quickly as we have.
"In some ways our achievements and expectations have outpaced our mental development. But that is coming around. It's simply a process and while we don't want to go get hammered by a bunch of strong teams, we have to do that so we can change and grow and go to that next level. We have to be patient."
In an effort to determine what level is runners may have reached this season he challenged them with back-to-back meets against fields with several nationally-ranked teams at both Toledo and Louisville.
"We went through a very tough two week stretch," Taylor said. "If Toledo had gone better, Louisville would have been better too. But we got knocked around at Toledo, and then the next weekend had to face tougher competition. It shook us and it wasn't enough time to change ourselves. I don't have a problem with that.
"So we have been working on the mental aspects. The girls have been responding. And that is also manifesting itself physically. While our practices have been terrific all season, they have been at a whole new level the past two weeks. Not just fast, but confident and powerful. Every indication is that mentally the girls are back on track."
Taylor acknowledges that in a physically grueling sport like cross country the mental aspect of competition is the toughest part.
"They know they are a powerful team," Taylor said. "You can't suddenly get talented. You're not going to suddenly get team depth where you haven't previously. And physical preparation must happen in a logical progression that takes time.
"We have talent, depth and are the most physically prepared team I have ever coached. So now it's just being there mentally. You always wonder if the mental part will stand in the way or take the team to the next level. What I'm seeing along those lines is very good right now. We are close."
Lipscomb and North Florida have been in the top two slots in the conference poll all season. With North Florida moving ahead of the Lady Bisons by a nose down the stretch Taylor is wondering what it all will mean in the conference meet.
"The facts are evident about how good we are," Taylor said. "You can't train like we do and not have the ability to race really fast. It's nice that we are ranked second. Any pressure is reduced a bit for us, not that we would care if we were ranked first...or third.
"Maybe that gives North Florida confidence. I don't have a problem if it does...they've earned that. Maybe it adds pressure knowing that they are expected to win. The thing is, our performance and success aren't about North Florida, they are about us. "
Taylor is more concerned about the performances of each of his runners than he is the overall placement of the team in the meet. He would, however, like to head into the A-Sun meet on a strong, positive note.
"This weekend we are simply looking for improvement in some key performance and mentality areas," Taylor said. "We don't have to win the meet, and in so many ways this meet doesn't matter, other than that it can be a mental boost. Beyond that, it is just a practice.
"Certainly you would prefer to go in with a nice performance in the final meet. At the same time this team can do anything. They know how to win. They've run fast times. They've been the underdog. The training is right. We have a team that can win so many different ways."
