Has Arizona's economy improved because of its immigration laws?
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has talked tough on immigration, saying he would deport all 12 million undocumented immigrants.
CNN's Wolf Blitzer asked Cruz what is wrong with letting the "good ones" come back to the United States during the Feb. 25 GOP debate in Houston.
Cruz referenced a Feb. 9 Wall Street Journal article and said Arizona's strict immigration laws have prompted undocumented immigrants to flee the state. As a result, it has become tougher for business owners in the state to find skilled workers, but at the same time state spending decreased.
"Arizona put in very tough laws on illegal immigration, and the result was illegal immigrants fled the state. ... Some of the business owners complained that the wages they had to pay workers went up, and from their perspective that was a bad thing. But what the state of Arizona has seen is the dollars they're spending on welfare, on prisons, and education, all of those have dropped by hundreds of millions of dollars," Cruz said. "And, the Americans, and for that matter, the legal immigrants who are in Arizona, are seeing unemployment drop, are seeing wages rise. That's who we need to be fighting for."
Arizona is no stranger to controversy with some of its immigration laws. But has the departure of undocumented immigrants after legislation helped Arizona's economy to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars?
We decided to fact-check Cruz's complex immigration claim.
But first, some background on Arizona immigration policy.
Why did immigrants leave?
Arizona's undocumented immigrant population was on the climb prior to 2007, according to a Pew Research Center study. The population peaked in 2007 with about 500,000 undocumented immigrants in-state.
But from 2007 to 2012, the undocumented immigrant population dropped 40 percent. However, immigrants across the state were already leaving because of the December 2007 recession.
Arizona's housing market crashed and construction jobs, one of the state's major sectors, dried up.
Immigrants "have left long before the passage of these anti-immigration laws," said Lisa Magaña, an associate professor in the School of Transborder Studies at Arizona State University.
Arizona passed Proposition 200 in 2004, which requires citizenship to receive social services such as childcare and housing assistance.
The state passed Proposition 300 two years later, which bars in-state tuition for college students without a lawful immigration status.
But the meat of Arizona's policies toward undocumented immigrants did not start until 2008.
Arizona required employers to use the federal E-Verify system in 2008, which requires an employee to have a Social Security number to legally work.
Finally, then-Gov. Jan Brewer signed SB 1070 into law in April 2010. The measure allowed law enforcement officers with "reasonable suspicion" to ask for a person's immigration papers when engaging in a stop. Most of the law was struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court, but last September a U.S. District Court Judge upheld the law's provision that allows police to question the immigration status of those they suspect are undocumented.
Welfare has "never gone" to undocumented immigrants, Liz Schott, a senior fellow and welfare expert at the left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, said.
However, some children of undocumented immigrants are eligible for benefits if they were born in the United States and are citizens.
Steven Camarota, director of research at the Center for Immigration Studies, which favors reduced immigration, noted that these U.S.-born children could share their cash welfare benefits with their undocumented parents.
In 2008, Arizona spent more than $121 million in cash welfare. In 2014, they spent more than $32 million on cash welfare.
According to Schott, Arizona just spends more in other welfare areas, such as child-care assistance for those working and/or attending school.
"They're spending it all, they're just spending it elsewhere," Schott said.
Because it is difficult to determine how many undocumented immigrants receive cash welfare, it's hard to credit this drop to people leaving the state.
As for state prisons, Arizona's Department of Corrections tracks noncitizens, either documented or undocumented, with a felony conviction.
From fiscal year 2010, which ran from July 2009 to June 2010, to fiscal year 2015, the state's noncitizen prison population has declined almost 23 percent, but that's just about 1,400 inmates.
The daily cost of keeping a noncitizen in a state prison hasn't changed much, either.
In fiscal year 2010, it cost $59.85 per day to house a noncitizen. In fiscal year 2015, it cost $61.55. Because of the dip in noncitizen inmates, that's a savings of almost $28 million.
However, overall state spending on prisons has increased almost 17 percent between 2008 and 2015.
Elliott Pollack, CEO of his own Scottsdale-based economic consulting firm, said Cruz's rationale bothers him.
"The cause and effect might be there to some extent, but I just don't see how it saves hundreds of millions of dollars," Pollack said. "There's no evidence of that."
Meanwhile, Camarota said the departure of undocumented immigrants "makes things a little better."
"Could he (Cruz) be right? He could be," Camarota said.
However, Cruz's points are subject to error. Camarota also notes that undocumented immigrants "paid something" in taxes.
A February 2016 report from the left-leaning Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy estimates that Arizona's undocumented immigrants pay more than $231 million a year in state and local taxes.
On education, the state also does not track spending on undocumented immigrants in schools.
The Wall Street Journal article Cruz described uses the state's decline in intensive English student enrollment -- about 80,000 students between 2008 and 2012 -- as a potential cost-saving measure, noting that it could save the state about $350 million per year.
But it's not that simple.
"I think it's a combination of factors," Arizona Department of Education spokesman Charles Tack said, noting that the decline could be attributed to students leaving the system or being reclassified elsewhere.
Plus, that measure correlates intensive English with undocumented immigrants, which isn't tracked to begin with.
We reached out to the Cruz campaign for comment but did not hear back.
Our ruling
Cruz said, "spending on welfare, on prisons, and education, all of those have dropped by hundreds of millions of dollars" because of Arizona's exodus of undocumented immigrants.
That's far from clear.
While it's technically possible to receive cash welfare through U.S.-born children, undocumented immigrants do not receive cash welfare directly. And, the state's prison and education budgets do not solely account for those without papers.
Even then, any potential savings would be hard to calculate. It is not an apples to oranges comparison.
The recession played a significant role in Arizona's immigrant population decline, too. There's been no noticeable windfall in the state budget for welfare, education and prisons that we could document.
We rate Cruz's claim as Mostly False.

For five centuries the Counts Zecca have lived in the lands of Leverano, in the heart of Salento. The land has always been listened to, understood and put to good use, until it completed, in the early 1900s, the production cycle from the cultivation to the vinification of the grapes of its own possessions, without ever altering the subtle balance of the place.
Conti Zecca's commitment to enhancing the genius loci has led the company to expand over time. Today Conti Zecca has four family estates, in addition to the original offer, for a total of 320 hectares that stretch between Leverano and Salice Salentino. All make autochthony their reason for being.

BANGALORE: Archbishop's Circular on Da Vinci Code
A PASTORAL CHALLENGE CAUSED BY THE FILM: THE DA VINCI CODEDear Rev. Fathers / Sisters / Brothers / Lay Faithful
You would have known by now that the film The Da Vinci Code, based on Dan Brown's novel of the same title, will be released in India tomorrow. The Catholic Bishops of India have already protested against the release of this movie as it affects the religious sentiments of all Christians in India. But the Government on Thursday allowed the screening of this controversial film without any cuts. But, after taking into consideration, the views expressed by the CBCI, it has given this movie an 'Adults Only' certification and with a 'disclaimer' (This film is a work of pure fiction and has no correspondence to historical facts of the Christian religion) to be exhibited at the beginning and the end of the film.
I have already expressed my concerns in the print and electronic media regarding this movie, which is causing tremendous confusions in the minds of the people, and I even labeled it as the Devil's Code. "It tries to present fiction as truth and there is a likelihood that many people could end up with a distorted and erroneous view of the Church and Christianity" as one of the dailies published.
As you are fully aware, this film has caused a pastoral challenge for us to guide our people either to totally boycott it or view it with utmost care and critical-mind. It is also an opportunity for a deeper catechesis and to proclaim the true reality of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
We can see that this novel has caused a stir all over the world. Of course, here in India everything sensational makes a stir and quickly blows over. I suspect this will be true of the Da Vinci Code. Yes, it is blasphemous and it is a diabolical attack on our Lord Jesus who has sustained and overcome diabolical attacks before. I'm sure he will do it again. However, it is also a diabolical attack on our faith and what we believe Jesus to be. There are so many people who are simple and unfortunately they will be influenced by this book and film. In the light of the existing controversy and requests from different quarters for proper direction, I am giving a few guidelines, which I want you to read out to the people on Sunday, 28th May at all the Masses.
1. The film Da Vinci Code is based on a novel and it is not based on history. The true life of Jesus Christ is depicted in the Gospels.
2. People must not become gullible and believe whatever they see in the film as media create false realities and have the power to 'make believe facts'.
3. To clarify people's doubt, a study group in the parish should be formed. A few learned persons who have made a through study of the film could guide the people, especially the youth in the parish.
4. Special prayers to be offered for media personnel that they may not exploit the simple faith of the common people and that people who view this movie may not be misguided and/or lose faith in the divinity of Jesus Christ.
5. The faithful should be helped to foster their personal relationship with Jesus by conducting regularly the Bible Classes with special focus on the Gospels, and by the screening of the movies: Jesus of Nazareth, the Passion of the Christ etc.
I am also enclosing my Press Release and a few points on this film: The Da Vinci Code for your information and sharing.
With every good wish and God's blessings,
Yours sincerely in Christ,
Bernard Moras
Archbishop of Bangalore

Finding The Responsible Party Regarding Swimming Pool Accidents
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that more than 3,000 people drowned in 2007. Thousands more were injured as a result of a water submersion accident.
One significant cause of drowning and submersion injuries is swimming pool accidents. People who are injured in swimming pool accidents may suffer brain damage, broken bones, other serious injuries or death. Tragically, many swimming pool accident victims are young children.
Common causes of swimming pool accidents include:
- Inadequate fencing
- Broken or unsecured latches
- Improper safety warnings
- Inadequate safety measures to prevent child injuries
If you or a family member has been injured as a result of a swimming pool accident, contact an experienced personal injury lawyer at the Law Offices of Wade E. Byrd P.A. We are in Fayetteville, North Carolina, and handle commercial and residential swimming pool accident claims.
Pool Accidents Caused By Property Owner Negligence
Swimming pool accidents often occur because property owners have simply failed to take adequate precautions. Many swimming pool accidents occur because children gain access to a swimming pool when they are not being properly monitored by an adult. Pool owners should adequately safeguard their property to prevent children from gaining access to their pool while unattended. Fence or gate latches that are broken or unsecured are a common cause of swimming pool accidents.
Our Attorneys Can Help You
If you or a family member has been injured in a swimming pool accident, let an experienced personal injury attorney at the Law Offices of Wade E. Byrd P.A. review the facts of your case to determine if you may have a basis to obtain compensation for your injuries. We have the knowledge, experience and resources to protect your rights.

20 reasons to keep coconut oil in your bathroom
2. Wash Your Face. It's called oil cleansing and it's amazing! It may sound strange but oil can actually help clean your face.
3. Shave Your Legs. That's right! Coconut oil is a girl's best friend when it comes to shaving. If you want baby soft legs, rub a small amount of coconut oil on your legs before shaving.
4. Hair Treatment – Coconut oil helps reduce protein loss when used as a pre or post treatment. Pre-treating your hair by adding a 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil to the roots and work the oil down to the ends. Leave the coconut oil on for an hour before rinsing.
5. Skin moisturizer. Coconut oil is known to help reduce scaring, stretch marks and prevent sagging skin. It's a natural "miracle" cream! Try my whipped coconut oil body butter here.
6. Rash and Burn Cream. Coconut oil helps to sooth rashes and burns. A small dab of coconut oil has always helped to reduce and even eliminate diaper rash.
7. Eye Makeup Remover. Another wonderful reason to have coconut oil on hand in the bathroom is for removing makeup! Wash your face and then use coconut oil to remove the remaining eye makeup.
8. Cuticle Treatment. Coconut oil does wonders for your nails! Massage your finger nails and toe nails with it as often as you like to help keep rugged cuticles tame. The anti-fungal properties of coconut oil are also helpful for keeping toes clear of fungal infections.
9. Frizz Tamer. Coconut oil is a go-to when you need to tame wild hair. Only use a small amount though. Too much coconut oil will leave your hair with an oily look.
10. To lighten age spots when rubbed directly on the skin.
11. To get rid of cradle cap on baby- just massage in to head, leave on for a few minutes and gently rinse with a warm wash cloth
12. Mixed with equal parts sugar for a smoothing body scrub (use in the shower)
13. Rubbed on lips as a natural chap stick
14. Use on feet to fight athlete's foot or tor fungus
15. In place of Lanolin cream on nursing nipples to sooth irritation (also great for baby!)
16. As a natural personal lubricant that won't disturb vaginal flora
17. When used consistently on skin it can help get rid of cellulite
18. Use as a natural deodorant
19. By itself or with baking soda as a naturally whitening toothpaste
20. Rub into elbows daily to help alleviate dry, flaky elbows
by Dr. Mercola
Ginger has been used medicinally for centuries and in the U.S. is perhaps most known for its ability to soothe nausea and stomach upset.
It is without a doubt the best remedy I know of for nausea. You don't need much just a piece the size of your fingernail minced very finely and swallowed. It is phenomenally effective.
But now new research suggests this natural root may provide help for much more, including for arthritis pain, heart health, and people with asthma, in whom ginger may enhance the effects of the bronchodilating medications conventionally used to treat their condition. It may even be useful for weight control!

How to Make Cayenne Salve
How to Make Cayenne Salve
by Rosalee de la Forêt
Every two months we feature a different herb on HerbMentor.com so that we can really dive into learning particular plants on a deeper level.
During this cold and dark time of the year we are learning more about one of the hottest and most popular spices in the world: cayenne.
The health benefits of cayenne are truly astounding!
From its heart-protective qualities to boosting the immune system, it will even stop bleeding from a cut or wound!
If you master only one herb in your life, master cayenne pepper.
It is more powerful than anything else. —Dr. Richard Shulze
In this article we are going to look at one of cayenne's many benefits: easing pain.
History of cayenne
Cayenne comes from the Capsicum genus that also includes bell peppers, chilies, paprikas and habaneros.
This genus is from the Americas and has been cultivated for use for at least 7,000 years. Some of the early european explorers brought the seeds from South America back to Europe and they quickly spread around the world.
The etymology of the word Capsicum is believed to have been derived from Greek, meaning "to bite".
What makes it bite?
Cayenne has a hot and acrid taste. This "bite" or heat is caused by the constituent capsaicin. The more capsaicin a pepper has the more heat or bite to it. This amount varies greatly between species and varieties.
One method of measuring this bite or heat is the Scoville heat units (SHU). Cayenne has around 30,000 – 50,000 SHU. In contrast, bell peppers have 0 and habaneros have more than 100,000.
Cayenne for Pain
Cayenne is famous for reducing many types of pain. It works by effecting your nervous system. Substance P is a neurotransmitter that relays information and results in what we call pain. Capsaicin, a major constituent of cayenne peppers, blocks substance P and therefore reduces pain.
When cayenne is used topically it can relieve many different types of pain, from diabetic neuropathy, shingles, migraine headaches, back aches, arthritis, menstrual cramps and bruises.
Cayenne Salve
Today's recipe is a super simple salve that can be made up very quickly and bring big-time pain relief.
For this recipe you'll need…
1/2 cup olive oil
Two heaping teaspoons of cayenne powder (or 15 grams).
(Just pick this up at the market if you don't have any.)
1/2 ounce of beeswax
(Available at Mountain Rose Herbs, along with cayenne)
Double boiler
(Don't have one? Try a local thirft store.)
(Available in supermarkets.)
Begin by infusing the cayenne into the olive oil over a double burner.
I heat the oil and cayenne until it is warm, turn off the heat and let it sit (warmly) for about 20 minutes, then turn the heat on again.
I do this for at least one hour to a couple of hours, you could do it for 24 hours if desired.
Once the cayenne and olive oil have been infused, strain off the powder through a cheesecloth. Reserve the infused oil.
Heat the beeswax until it is melted. Stir in the infused oil until the beeswax and oil have been thoroughly melted together and combined.
Immediately pour this mixture into jars or tins. (Makes roughly 4 ounces).
Let it cool and then label it.
Using your cayenne salve
This cayenne salve can be used on aches and pains, from sore muscles and joints to bruises and even nerve pain.
It is best for closed wounds and may sting a bit on open wounds. Even on closed skin you may feel a bit of burning or heat in the area where it is used. It should be applied externally only and used within 6 months for the best results.
If using it for arthritic pain it may take up to a week or two to see results. In this case you want to use it daily to decrease chronic pain.
Caution: When cayenne comes in contact with your mucosal membranes or eyes it will burn! Be sure to wash your hands thoroughly after touching cayenne or use gloves to apply the salve to the desired area. If you are using the cayenne salve on your hands, consider applying it at night and then sleeping with gloves on.

Cut-off date legal status / EQE syllabus changed from 31 December to 31 October
The Decision changed the Rules relating to the syllabus to read:
Rule 2 - Examination syllabus
The examination syllabus referred to in Article 13 REE shall cover only those legal texts referred to in Article 13(1)(a) to (c) REE which are in force on 31 October of the year prior to the examination. The EPO case law referred to in Article 13(1)(d) REE shall be that covered in the latest edition of "Case Law of the Boards of Appeal of the European Patent Office" (hereinafter "the Case Law Book"), the case law referred to in any case law special edition of the Official Journal published after the latest edition of the Case Law Book, and any case law published in the Official Journal on or before 31 October of the year prior to the examination.
Note that the first part of the first sentence means that amended Rule 27 and 28 EPC as currently in force are the relevant versions of these rules - the Guidelines of November 2016 are not up-to-date in respect to these Rules. Also, these Guidelines still refer to old RFees 11.
Note that the last part of the last sentence means that G 1/15, partial priority (pdf), is part of the exam syllabus for the coming exam (although it is unlikely that Exam Committees designed questions to test it, as they could not know when it would be published), as it was published in OJ Sep 2017 on 29 Sep 2017.
Rule 22(1) - General instructions for answering the papers
"(1) Candidates are expected to be familiar with at least the following documents in the versions valid as at 31 October of the year prior to the preexamination or the examination:
(a) the EPC
(b) the Implementing Regulations to the EPC
(c) the Protocol on the Centralisation of the European Patent System and on its Introduction (Protocol on Centralisation)
(d) the Protocol on Jurisdiction and the Recognition of Decisions in respect of the Right to the Grant of a European Patent (Protocol on Recognition)
(e) the Rules relating to Fees
(f) the notice of the President of the EPO concerning the arrangements for deposit accounts [ADA & AAD]
(g) the PCT
(h) the Regulations under the PCT [latest change: July 2017]
(i) the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property
(j) the list of contracting states to the EPC and of contracting states to the PCT
(k) the Ancillary Regulations to the EPC [partially overruled by later OJ EPOs]
(l) the brochure entitled "National law relating to the EPC" [partially overruled by later OJ EPOs]
(m) the Guidelines for Examination in the EPO [partially overruled by Rule changes per July 2016 and later]
(n) the content of the Official Journal of the EPO [until and including the Oct edition 2017],
(o) the Guidelines for Search and Examination at the EPO as PCT Authority."
Our comments are given in between square brackets.
Note that the last item is new: the GL PCT/EPO were introduced in 2015, but did not make it to the EQE Syllabus earlier than with this decision.
Note that any parts of the documents (esp. Ancillary Regulations, GL EPO, GL PCT/EPO) may have been superseded by documents of higher ranka and which define the relevant legal situation at 31 October, e.g., Rule changes, G-decisions, Decisions of the President, Notices in the OJ EPO.
The Decision also introduced, in new Rule 27(3) IPREE a new "Examination Committee V [shall be] entrusted with the quality management of the papers. It shall advise the other Examination Committees in this respect. "

(OK, trying again, now with an alias, since my previous anonymous posts didn't seem to get through. Again sorry for any duplicates.)ReplyDelete
Which version of the Guidelines would you recommend to bring to the exam: the 2016 edition, which doesn't reflect the rule changes etc, or the 2017 edition, which formally won't be in force on 31 October?Replies
- Dishwashing product11 October 2017 at 17:14
If the exam papers will be based on GL/EPO 2016, it seems risky to use GL/EPO Nov 2017 at the exam. I am aiming to take GL/EPO 2016 supplemented with OJ articles and whatever else may be usefulDelete
- Anonymous13 October 2017 at 13:11
The problem is the expression "in the versions valid as at 31 October of the year prior to the preexamination or the examination".Delete
The version of the GL in html is always updated and is not the same as the one in pdf/paper, then, which version? html or paper/pdf? Depending the answer is the GL2017 or GL2016.
- Anonymous7 October 2017 at 00:02
I'd like to know also what the previous colleague mentions about Guidelines. Thanks in advance.ReplyDelete
- Dishwashing product11 October 2017 at 17:18
Additionally, there is something to be said about the use of the same GL/EPO edition two years in a row. Idependently of the conflicts, it can be an advantage nonetheless.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous19 October 2017 at 09:47
Imo, the "bad" news for candidates of paper D is the introduction in the syllabus of the 246-pages book "Guidelines for Search and Examination at the EPO as PCT Authority".ReplyDelete
I think candidates should expect questions more related to pratical aspects of the international phase (amendments of application, clarity, unsearched subject-matter) and will be off course required to reference PCT-EPO-GUI in their answers paing attention not to mess up things citing the EPO-GUI.
- Anonymous8 November 2017 at 10:48
It seems that it will be important to have some clarification on the Guidelines for Examination issue. In particular, the relevant Guidelines for citing in the exam will apparently be the 2016 version. However, any case law and law changes that the new 2017 Guidelines are based on were published before 31 October 2017 and are relevant for the exam.ReplyDelete
It seems to leave us in a ridiculous situation where the correct Guidelines to cite in the exam are potentially incorrect in respect of some of the law that we need to apply in the exam.

To create host-based or network-based intrusion detection systems, we propose ALADIN which stands for Active Learning of Anomalies to Detect INtrusions. ALADIN uses active learning combined with rare class discovery and uncertainty identification to statistically train an intrusion detection or prevention system (IDS/IPS). Active learning selects "interesting traffic" to be shown to a security expert for labeling to substantially reduce the number of labels required from an expert to reach an acceptable level of accuracy and coverage.
We have used the algorithm to analyze several daily logs of outbound network traffic, with over 13 million transfers, from Microsoft's worldwide corporate network. The algorithm discovered a previously unknown instance of malware on the corporate network in addition to a number of other forms of malware that were logged, but not yet identified.

All those noble decisions, taken in a haze of post-celebration optimism, tend to evaporate in the blink of an eye. I'm always amazed that people make so many resolutions they know they cannot stick to for very long. What is it about the first few days of a new year that makes us believe everything is new and clean, and that all goals are attainable? Read: How to set your fitness goals Humans are generally hopeful, and many are superstitious, so when the clock strikes twelve and the fireworks light up the sky, it is natural to feel exuberant, ready to take on the world, including our old, bad habits.But, when the endorphins subside and we are faced with the monotony of everyday life once again – going to work, preparing meals, shopping, negotiating the traffic, soothing frayed nerves, working till we drop – we tend to forget things like reducing our energy intake, exercising more and drinking less.So, because making and sticking to one's New Year's resolutions is such pointless task, we should perhaps consider another approach. How about just rearranging your life to make yourself happier, giving yourself more me-time and being kinder to yourself?If you do that, you'll be able to pay more attention to what you eat, have more time to exercise and turn less frequently to food and alcohol to relieve stress – and stop gaining weight or destroying your health.Steps to make life more bearablea) Consult a clinical psychologist Are you emotionally not in a good place, trapped by anxiety, depression, fear, self-loathing and endless striving for perfection? Are you suffering from eating disorders or any other psychological problem that drives you to either neglect yourself or seek comfort in food? If your answer is yes to any of the above, then please consider consulting a clinical psychologist.I know I generally first refer clients to seek help from registered dietitians, but in the abovementioned cases, they first needs to identify the underlying causes (psychological or environmental) of their stress or life-imbalance before consulting a dietitian, because no diet will cure an abusive relationship or turn your boss from hell into a friend.Read: Investigating binge eating disorder There are too many causes of psychological problems to list, but even simple things such as loneliness, an inability to value yourself correctly (feelings of worthlessness, inadequacy, guilt, lack of love and many more), as well as external factors such as being trapped in a bad marriage or job, or having to function without support from family and co-workers, can trigger emotional stress that dictates how you will react to any attempts to change your diet or exercise programme.Clinical psychologists are trained to help you identify what factors in your makeup, your relationships, work or family are the causes of your problem. These experts are also able to guide you to change your perceptions of yourself and to make changes that can set you free.b) Consult a registered dietitianIf you have identified your underlying problems and addressed them to the point where you can function normally again, take the next step and consult a registered dietitian.Read: The balanced diet Your dietitian will assist you with a suitable diet. Please keep in mind that dietitians not only help their patients lose weight, but also provide expert help and backup for any illness that requires dietary intervention.Examples of conditions that benefit from dietary intervention prescribed and monitored by a registered dietitian:Diabetes (types 1 and 2) Kidney problems ranging from kidney stones to renal failure Heart disease, raised blood fat levels and other cardiovascular problems Different types of cancer and also chemotherapy and other treatments that affect the appetite and food intake Hypertension (high blood pressure which is prevalent in our country) Gout Ulcers of the stomach and duodenum HIV and Aids, including aspects such as lipid dystrophy and the interaction of ARVs with nutrients and food intake Pre- and post-operative dietary treatment particularly when patients are not able to eat solids, or have problems with swallowing Dietary needs of an ageing population that is increasing rapidly as more and more people live longer Dietary requirements for infants, toddlers, children and teenagers Eating disorders including anorexia, orthorexia, night eating, bingeing, and bulimia Allergies and intolerances, both real and imagined I am always shocked when members of the public inform me that they have had a serious operation or chemotherapy or are struggling to feed a debilitated older person, and that they have not been referred to a registered dietitian for advice and assistance. In some cases, eating the correct diet can make the difference between life and death or the success or failure of a procedure.Read: Heavy patients trust diet advice from overweight docs most: study If you have not been referred to a dietitian after a treatment that may affect your eating, please ask your doctor to refer you or visit the Website of the Association for Dietetics in SA (ADSA) at: and click on 'Find a Dietitian' to find a dietitian in your area.Let's make 2016 the year when we look after ourselves and get help from qualified experts instead of believing weird and wonderful ideas from friends and family or published in popular magazines or on dubious websites.

We prepare for the propaganda, a rule I have already disobeyed in terms of parental concern haha, but as long as I am safe we are committing to a deed for the public good. We are not anti government but instead we are pro government for the people.
The head quarters is filled with different groups from the youth sector. Artists are on the floor organizing in the kitchen, but upstairs I walk into an educational discussion on K-12 by a few of the kasamas. With only a piece of chalk, he draws key terms on the floor in front of Marvin(s) and I. At the same time, we exchange dialogue about the occupy movement. The driven goal between each organizers is prominent throughout the week, the subject matter is relevant, and we also have a plan of action. The ED officers, whether official or not, provide a great synopsis for tomorrow's walk out.
We congregate to the epicenter of USP and the bridge right out front, building energy for something we do not even know at times, but what's important is that we stick close.
Trish tells me that the jeep we are using is from the 1970's and that it has survived countless mobilizations. Miguel and Dora beast it on the mic; she carries this energy over to the, where we witness the strongest elements of the NDM: singing, speeches by chairwomen, and KPL member–Vencer–plus more. The program itself is half improvised however it feels unplanned. We are told it is one of the biggest showings for a komrade.

2011 Ch. Palmer, Margaux
Red | For laying down | Chateau Palmer | Code: 11934 | 2011 | France > Bordeaux > Margaux | Cab.Sauvignon Blend | Medium-Full Bodied, Dry | 13.5 % alcohol
Palmer is a First Growth in everything but a 1855 Medal. I don't think it has always been, although there are some fabulous famous older vintages. I don't think it reached the heady height until the wine making was taken over by Thomas Deroux, a man who strives for total perfection. He really has taken something very special and created an Adonis. I think if the Gods had been just a little more kind this year with the weather, he would have achieved that again with his 2011. Climatics aside this is a truly outstanding wine and one of the few stars of this tricky year. Pure, intense but with focussed power that is rare anywhere this year. Rich but not blousey, perfumed but not tarty. Beautiful precision that's heavenly to try.

Scores and Reviews
The Wine Advocate
Wine Spectator
The Wine Advocate - The opaque blue/purple-colored 2011 Palmer reveals a stunning bouquet of licorice, truffles, camphor, spring flowers, black raspberries and black currants. One of the superstars of the vintage, this brilliant 2011 possesses superb concentration and purity, medium to full body, and remarkable length of close to a minute. A tour de force in winemaking, the Palmer team merits accolades for achieving this level of quality in a more challenging vintage than either 2009 or 2010. The wine of the vintage in Margaux, tiny yields of 20 hectoliters per hectare, a final blend of 55% Merlot and 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, and a severe selection (only 55% of the production made it into Palmer) are the reasons for this success.
Robert M. Parker, Jr. - 30/04/2014
Wine Spectator - Shows an ample core of kirsch and bright cherry fruit that's very expressive, with flecks of white pepper, violet and tobacco. The racy acidity is well-embedded, and this has solid length, with a velvety edge in reserve that lets extra cassis and violet notes emerge. Should stretch out nicely during the rest of its élevage.
Wine Spectator's 2011 Top-Scoring Red Bordeaux
James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, April 5, 2012
Decanter - Dense colour, ripe red and black fruits, superb concentration and controlled power, very polished and intensely expressive, 1st Growth quality.

The Producer
Château Palmer is named after a British officer, Major General Palmer, who settled in Bordeaux in 1814. It is the top estate of the Margaux appellation after Château Margaux. It is located in the centre of the Margaux appellation, and its vineyards (Cabernet Sauvignon 55%, Merlot 40%, Cabernet Franc 5%) lie on a sparse gravel plateau.
Palmer is classified as a 3ème Cru Classé and was established as a Super Second long before Léoville Las Cases, Ducru-Beaucaillou and Pichon-Lalande, and in some years (1961, 1966, and 1983) it is as good as any wine in Bordeaux.
Palmer's relatively high Merlot content makes Palmer the closest in style of any leading Médoc properties to the great wines of Pomerol and St-Emilion.
Other wines by this producer:
The Grape
Cabernet Sauvignon lends itself particularly well in blends with Merlot. This is actually the archetypal Bordeaux blend, though in different proportions in the sub-regions and sometimes topped up with Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot.
In the Médoc and Graves the percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend can range from 95% (Mouton-Rothschild) to as low as 40%. It is particularly suited to the dry, warm, free- draining, gravel-rich soils and is responsible for the redolent cassis characteristics as well as the depth of colour, tannic structure and pronounced acidity of Médoc wines. However 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wines can be slightly hollow-tasting in the middle palate and Merlot with its generous, fleshy fruit flavours acts as a perfect foil by filling in this cavity.
In St-Emilion and Pomerol, the blends are Merlot dominated as Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to ripen there - when it is included, it adds structure and body to the wine. Sassicaia is the most famous Bordeaux blend in Italy and has spawned many imitations, whereby the blend is now firmly established in the New World and particularly in California and Australia.
The Region
If Pauillac can be seen as the bastion of 'traditional' Red Bordeaux, then Margaux represents its other facet in producing wines that are among Bordeaux's most sensual and alluring. It is the largest commune in the Médoc, encompassing the communes of Cantenac, Soussans, Arsac and Labaude, in addition to Margaux itself. Located in the centre of the Haut-Médoc, Margaux is the closest of the important communes to the city of Bordeaux.
The soils in Margaux are the lightest and most gravelly of the Médoc, with some also containing a high percentage of sand. Vineyards located in Cantenac and Margaux make up the core of the appelation with the best vineyard sites being located on well-drained slopes, whose lighter soils give Margaux its deft touch and silky perfumes. Further away from the water, there is a greater clay content and the wines are less dramatically perfumed.
Margaux is the most diffuse of all the Médoc appelations with a reputation for scaling the heights with irreproachable wines such as Ch. Margaux and Ch. Palmer, but also plumbing the depths, with too many other châteaux not fulfilling their potential. There has been an upward shift in recent years, but the appellation cannot yet boast the reliability of St Julien. However, the finest Margaux are exquisitely perfumed and models of refinement and subtlety which have few parallels in Bordeaux.
Recommended Châteaux: Ch. Margaux, Ch. Palmer, Ch. Brane-Cantenac, Ch. Rauzan-Ségla , Ch. Dufort-Vivens, Ch. Ferrière, Ch. du Tertre, Ch. Giscours, Ch. d'Angludet.

In Zend Framework 2, the module is a system used to organize the main application specific code within each module. The skeleton provided application module is used by developers to offer bootstrapping, routing and error configuration to the whole application.
In Zend Framework 2, the ServiceManager is injected within any controller by default as it extends the AbstractController implementing the ServiceLocatorAwareInterface interface.
In the Zend framework, routing is an act to match a request to a given controller. It will examine the URI request and will attempt to match the URI path segment against provided constraints. It also can be utilized other portions of the request URI as well as the environment even.
- Open the
module.config.phpof the module and its path is
Add/Update given code in the view_manager array
'template_map' => array(
'layout/layout' => __DIR__ . '/../view/layout/layout.phtml', //Setup the layout file here

class Testhelper extends AbstractHelper
public function __invoke($str, $find)
if (! is_string($str)){
return 'must be string';
if (strpos($str, $find) === false){
return 'not found';
return 'found';
- Now register it in Module.php
- Call it in the view
echo $this->test_helper("me","e");

After cleaning the outside of my refrigerator, I place plastic wrap or "press 'n seal" over the entire top. Just replace as needed. Saves a lot of elbow grease.
I hate cleaning my refrigerator, so I'm always thinking of ways to make it easier. I have a side by side one. I take my shelves and drawers out, and wash them in the dishwasher. The dishwasher done a great job cleaning them. I just two at a time and that way I don't have to empty the all the food out. All I have to do it just wipe the walls and the bottom out. I hope this helps another busy mom out.
By CHRISTINA DEE COBB from Greenwood, SC
Editor's Note: Some drawers are not dishwasher safe and can be damaged by the hot temperatures.
If you do not do this, your refrigerator will work harder, using more electricity. It also will shorten its life. Follow the directions in your manual.
You can also place a bowl of coffee ground (unused) into the fridge to help absorb odors, or a cotton ball soaked in vanilla.
Wipe down your refrigerator gaskets with pure vinegar. This will help prevent and kill mildew. Don't forget to remove the crisper drawers and clean under them as well.
If you have a damaged plastic interior part, you can often find the replacement part in second hand appliance stores, or even at the city dump. Contact scrappers and tell them if they happened to scrap a Kenmore (or whatever your refrigerator brand is) and the model number, you need a crisper drawer or whatever the part is. Since the plastic has little scrap value, often they will just give you the part.
I always clean out food from the fridge every week on the day before trash day. That way, there is no rot smell in the house or rotting food in the fridge.
When I clean my refrigerator, after removing all food and checking every thing, I take out all the shelves and bins. I then put them all in my "clean" bathtub.
I designate one day each week to go through my refrigerator to clean out any spoiled food and look for any good leftovers. Once I am finished with this task, I create a new recipe from the leftovers.
I admit cleaning the fridge is not high on my list but after I'm done cleaning the outside, I take strips of plastic wrap and place it on top of the fridge. Voila! Next time? Just replace.
Pick one day a week to clean out your refrigerator and wipe the shelves out then you'll do less work and always have a cleaner fridge than if you always let it get gross.
When refrigerators get old or have been in storage for a long time they can take on a stale odor, making it a less than appealing place to store your food. Often what happens is mold grows and creates the bad odors. Use the following recipe to help remove the mold and the odor.

I have a GE refrigerator and the handles are turning orange. They said to use a cleaner called Hot Melt which cannot be found anywhere. Can you give me the name of a cleaner to clean them?
Jo Ann
I use vinegar in my kitchen to clean everything. It cuts the grease & etc. Good luck.
I am a master plumber do not use the primer it eats into the plastic and if you get pvc cleaner it will not these are two different items we use the cleaner to get oils off the pvc and the primer to soften the pvc for gluing
My double door fridge is white. The handles have turned yellow. I have tried lots of things to get them clean, my latest being oven cleaner, but to no avail. They never come clean. Any suggestions?
Try making a paste with baking sida & white vinegar. Apply & scrub with a net ball or old toothbrush.
Tips for cleaning out the fridge. Post your ideas.
When cleaning out the refrigerator I put all the stuff to be thrown out into those Walmart bags that we all collect. I always double or triple the bags and put into the kitchen garbage. This keeps for at least one day while I continue to clean and also put any garbage from meals into the can. I then can wrap up the whole kitchen trash and add the bathroom too, which I also put the walmart bags into.
By RoseMary
Any leftovers that are too "old" for us to eat, I give to our dogs. If you do not have a dog, keep an ice cream pail in the freezer and save the old leftovers for a friend or relative's dog. When we had rabbits, the "bunny food" that was older went to the rabbits. Now, the old lettuce and salad stuff can go into the compost pile or just into the garbage.
After cleaning out your refrigerator, dampen a cloth or clean sponge with white vinegar and wipe down the walls and shelves in the fridge. It will both cut down odors and help prevent mildew.
Hi, I need to sell my old fridge. What's the best way to clean it thoroughly as well as eliminating the bad smell? Somebody said to use charcoal and baking soda? Thanks.
First you have to clean everywhere you can reach (vinegar, comet cleanser, Baking soda, bartender's friend, whatever you prefer)... Then the magic: Cinnamon oil on paper towels, crumpled into cups. Run the fridge a day or more.The scent circulates everywhere you can't reach or see, killing mold, mildew, and any other disgusting odor. I got mine from the pharmacy counter at Walgreens but later noticed it was imitation cinnamon oil so getting the strongest cinnamon scent from anywhere should work
Wow that sure great for the environment
What do I use to to clean and freshen your refrigerator? I have tried everything and it does not work.
By Lisa from OH
Try a magic eraser. Also try some baking soda and water. Leaving a box of baking soda is also a good option.
Freshening I use a brown paper bag, wad it up and place it in the back of the fridge. Change when you need to! For cleaning, I use equal amounts of vinegar and water, spray it on wipe it off.! Hopes this helps!
My vegetable bin has some gunk between the front white part and the clear plastic part of the bin that I cannot get to. I am afraid of trying to take the front part off for fear of breaking it. Any suggestions?

I have a white, two door refrigerator with textured handles. They look horrible. I have tried Magic Eraser to no avail. Does anyone have a successful cleaning method? I sure would appreciate any help.
Baking Soda. It works great when mixed into a paste with water. It's the only thing that's worked on my fridge. It also works well on the textured top of the dishwasher that never seems to come clean. Good Luck to you! (09/12/2005)
By Rebekah
Use a cloth, or sponge, dipped in Vinegar and sprinkled with Baking Soda. Vinegar & Baking Soda take out most stains, including pet stains, blood stains, and underarm stains on clothing. It works like magic. (09/12/2005)
By Denny
All I use on my refrigerator is just Windex. It works great for me. (09/12/2005)
By Joyce
I cleaned that today with soft scrub. The door handles were very dirty, the soft scrub made them white again.
By sandy
We put hand towels through our refrigerator/freezer handles. These are great for opening the door with and drying wet hands on. When they get dirty, toss them in the wash. Though this doesn't help clean dirty handles, it sure helps preventing them from getting dirty in the first place. (09/13/2005)
By Marietta (Guest)
If the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser did not work, and I will assume you have tried to scrub it with some form of soft scrub or baking soda, comet or something along those lines. Then my suggestion would be steam, I have one of those steam cleaners and I use it for tough areas like this. If you do not have one maybe you could imitate the steam effect by taking a rag and get it wet, pop it in the microwave for a minute, and then take the rag and rub the handles. You might want to wear some gloves, as the rag will be hot. (09/13/2005)
Sometimes it's difficult to get in the little grooves, no matter what kind of cleaner you use. I have a toothbrush that I use for cleaning small places. It works great on textured handles. Dip the toothbrush in a small amount of cleaner and brush the handle, and it will come clean in seconds. (09/15/2005)
By Judi
Try TSP (look for it in your local hardware store). I use it on the tops of my coolers. When we go camping they get so dirty. I just moisten the top of the cooler then sprinkle on the TSP, let it sit for a few minutes and wash it off and
it comes sparkling white. For your fridge handles, try putting the TSP on a moist cloth and wrap it around the handle for a few minutes. (09/16/2005)
Grease Lightening cleaned mine. Just spray it on, let it sit for a second, and scrub with toothbrush. (10/31/2005)
By Marla
I have a white, side by side fridge, and the handles were getting dirty. I tried other products but it was the Magic Eraser that did the trick. They came so clean and look brand new. The fridge is only 3 yrs old though. (01/12/2006)
Thanks for the great tips! (03/20/2006)
By Ron
Well I can't believe it. I have used soft scrub and a rag several times over the years and have never had any luck. At this point my white handles look horrible. After reading this page, I just used soft scrub and a toothbrush, duh. My 1993 fridge handles look like they are brand new. Thanks for the tip. (07/07/2007)
By CleverGirl
I was about to purchase new door handles for my Kenmore refrigerator because I couldn't get them clean. When I realized that it was going to cost me over $80 to do that, I went back to the drawing board. My husband suggested Armor All, and it worked like a charm. (09/06/2008)
The absolute best and easiest way to clean the vinyl refrigerator door handles is to use shaving cream. Yes, common variety shaving cream. Apply liberally all over the door handles and let it sit for 10 minutes. Wipe off with a damp towel while slightly agitating. The grit and grime melt away completely. If you have an extremely dirty handle, then you may need a second application, but most will clean completely without one. The final appearance looks like you bought some new handles. In my case, I had white handles and they look totally new. It's really quite amazing. There's no downside. (02/01/2009)
By Craig
I tried the shaving cream. It really works. Not too much elbow grease either. Thanks for the hint. (02/08/2009)
By Jim
After thoroughly cleaning the outside of the refrigerator, I line the top with plastic wrap. No more greasy, dusty grime!
By Keeper from Morganton, NC
Now why didn't I think of that? Thanks! (07/26/2007)
By Graycrab
Fabulous idea, thanks so much for sharing!:) (07/26/2007)
Great idea. Makes me want to go and clean it right now! Thanks! I wonder if the plastic wrap would stay on top of kitchen cabinets as good as it would the fridge? I'll try it some day! (09/26/2007)
By Angel84dsj
I had some of that duck shelf liner leftover after I did my cabinets, so I put it on the top of my refrigerator. I know I shouldn't, but it is the best place for my cereal boxes and big bottles that don't fit in the cupboards, so nothing slips off and I can take it off and wash it to reuse. (09/27/2007)
By Kelly
I love this idea! I hate cleaning the fridge and this cuts down on the time to get it done. Thanks! (02/18/2009)
By A. Billups
The plastic wrap people should hire you for that idea! Thanks! (02/18/2009)

Jacksonville Public Library, in Florida, has begun a Music Advisory service that creates personalized playlists for patrons of its library. I am in awe! I'm not sure how you can tell what music one person will like based on what else they like. It seems easier to me with books. You can usually judge the pacing, characterization, writing style, atmosphere and plot of a book, even if you haven't read all of it.
Check out the postings of the Jacksonville lists at jplmusicadvisory.wordpress.com.
Do you agree with their suggestions?
We have many patrons who order music through the system, but we have only a small collection (and only limited shelf space.) If we rearranging some collections, we hope to purchase more music.
What music do you think we should add to the collection?
On the 100 book front: I hit 100 books as of Thanksgiving weekend. I may get my book on cd done by Thursday, Dec. 1, in which case I'll have gotten to 101 with a month to go! Favorite book so far has been Bruce Courtenay's The Power of One which we will be reading for book discussion this winter.
Good book combination: Sarah's Key, Vintage Affair and Train in Winter (by Caroline Moorehead) all feature France during WWII and concentration camps, informers and secrets.

The first lady is right: enough is enough. But first we need starting to hold enablers and bystanders accountable for sexual assault.
Since Donald Trump's videotaped confession of sexual assault came to light last week, we have been subjected to a sickening string of allegations from women who have recounted being groped and harassed by the GOP nominee. These include a woman who told the New York Times that Trump—a complete stranger—stuck his hand up her skirt on a first-class flight to New York in the 1980s, and a People magazine reporter who said that in 2005, Trump pinned her against a wall and forced his tongue down her throat. As Michelle Obama said on Wednesday, "Enough is enough."
As a society, we have to acknowledge that successful sexual assault–successful, that is, from the perspective of perpetrator—isn't a one-man job. It needs a crowd of excusers, enablers, and minimizers to ensure that the assault doesn't end badly for the perpetrator, even if the victim complains. In the various institutions of American society, men (and it is almost always men) who commit sexual assault have mostly been able to count on that crowd of enablers. That has been particularly true of privileged men like Trump.
Although Trump has denied these new allegations, they have the ring of truth. Over the years, we have heard him on Howard Stern and listened to the similar stories of other women about his long history of sexual harassment and forced sexual encounters. We can also recognize the telltale signs of male entitlement in his bluster and self-absorption. The important question now is whether GOP leaders will repudiate Trump once and for all or continue to minimize both the seriousness of his offenses and their implications for his candidacy.
But it is not just the Republican Party. Examples of enabling and excusing sexual misconduct elsewhere abound. The military has promoted officers who rape while drumming out their female victims. Colleges and universities have looked the other way at serial sexual assault, particularly when committed by athletes and professors. Even in those rare instances when victims file criminal charges, judges often deliver unreasonably lenient sentences, sending the message that these crimes are just not all that serious.

Dear Sirs,
Thank you for your efforts in updating the Website.
I am confident that your efforts will kindle the members to put on records the experience they went through during their tenure of service.
Be it of sad, enjoyable, funny, hurtful of eerie they should be told and recorded for the future. For we were there and saw it happen in front of our eyes!
I call upon every members to make every endeavour possible to contribute anything you think worth be telling. It is not necessarily be of success, as I have said above it is anything that is of any categories.
As the saying goes "A PHOTO TELLS A THOUSAND WORDS" as such all photos of historical importance should be published accompanied with explanatory notes to it.
The note is erroneous. Not at the Mess but in a mess in a helicopter. Attached is a photo that I took in October 1974 in the S61 Nuri (Sea King) helicopter that was flying my Platoon No1 and Platoon No4 of 'A' Coy 11 PFF into location Pulat in Ulu Kelantan. Here waiting for us is The 16th Assault Unit of the 10th Regiment of Malayan Communist Party based in Southern Thailand.
It is also the route taken by the Regiment to send units south to Pahang and Perak area. Memories are partly made of photographs. Paid a pittance these boys simply drudge on without looking back. Leaving behind wives and children for months on end in the humid interior jungle. I was then the Platoon Commander of No. 1 Platoon.
Just imagine you are deep inside where a 105MM Howitzer with Maximum Charge won't be able to help you should your Platoon being attacked by the Communist Terrorists!
A renown Military Strategist once said "WAR IS AN EXTENSION POLITICS BY OTHER MEANS". Yes it is and the Soldiers are the Pawns of War.
To this day soldiers are dying in wars waged by the orders of the Political Masters who orders it under whatever excuses but it is still the soldiers that fought and die in it.
Once again thank you to the both of you Sir!
Thank you.

My Dad was in Malaya 1956-8 I believe with KDG. He died in 1996 at the early age of 58 but I have a photo album with lots of photos from his time in Malaya, a troop photo and when he was in signals training squadron somewhere (he volunteered to do 3 years rathger than national service). I never knew anything about his service really but since got his army records which adds a bit of detail.
If any of the photos are of use let me know and I will scan and send over and any further info on KDG in Malaya wouyld be appreciated.
Kind regards
Duncan Burman
March 2, 2012 at 10:14 pm
Thank you for your comment posted yesterday referance your Dad's service in Malaya.
If you have images relating to his service we would be very happy to receive your scans and if I can get any information on the KDG service in Malaya, I will certainly pass it on to you.
I served during the Borneo confrontation in the 1960'S so I will speak to some of our more senior members who would have been involved in Malaya at the time your Dad would hve been there.
Once again thank you for your interest in our website
Kind regards
Leslie Smallman
