Product Description
Lion of the North fans rejoice! The battles of Breitenfeld and Lützen are back (with company!), this time as part of Ben Hull's award-winning Musket & Pike Battles series. The fourth installment in this popular series is Gustav Adolf the Great: With God and Victorious Arms, a tactical battle game featuring FIVE battles from the career of one of the Great Captains of History, King Gustav II Adolf the Great of Sweden. In his brief career, he catapulted Sweden to the forefront of European power politics. This volume sets its focus on the rise and climax of Gustav Adolf's military system.
The series began with the English Civil War in This Accursed Civil War, then covered the Swedish army after Gustav Adolf in Sweden Fights On, then looked at the rise of the French in the Thirty Years War in Under the Lily Banners. In this volume the Swedish face the tough Polish cavalry, lance equipped winged Husars and Cossacks. The Swedish-style brigades also take on the unbeaten Tilly at the head of the allied Catholic League and Imperial armies. Finally, Wallenstein, with a resurgent Imperial army, mastered the art of drawing out the Swedes to attack on ground of his choosing.
In each battle included in Gustav Adolf the Great: With God and Victorious Arms, armies are divided into several wings. Each has a commander and an order that limits the types of actions that units of that wing may perform. Victory goes to the player who can coordinate the actions of his wings in the heat of battle. Units are infantry battalions or brigades, cavalry regiments and artillery batteries. Rules include Cavalry Charges, Cavalry Pistols for skirmishing or for close combat, and artillery grazing fire. Play is highly interactive and most battles can be played through in one sitting. The battles included in Gustav Adolf the Great: With God and Victorious Arms are:
Dirschau 1627 -- Known in Poland as the Tczew. Sweden had been at war with the Polish-Lithuanian confederation under King Sigismund III since 1621, first to gain territory in Livonia and then Prussia. In the Prussian campaign that started in 1626, Gustav Adolf had finally brought the Poles to the field and defeated them in battle at Gniew, skillfully using terrain to offset the powerful Polish Hussars. The King crossed the Vistula and again faced the Polish General Koniecpolski and sought to do the same. The Poles were pushed back on the first day and when the fighting renewed on the second day, as the Swedes were about to carry the day, Gustav Adolf was shot in the chest, near his throat and nearly died. His grave injury caused the Swedes to retire ending the battle in a draw.
Breitenfeld 1631 -- The most famous battle of the Thirty Years War and King Gustav Adolf's crown jewel. The Imperial and Catholic League Armies had a long string of victories under the redoubtable Tilly. The upstart Swedish King and his erstwhile Saxon allies took the field across from Tilly's veterans. The combined Swedish-Saxon army was larger than Tilly's so he was forced to deploy in one long thin line. As was his style, Tilly struck first and the Saxons collapsed much easier than anyone expected. The Imperial left charged the Swedish cavalry repeatedly, but they held firm. Once the Imperial cavalry was exhausted the Swedish horse counter-attacked and opened Tilly's left flank. Tilly's main line was already committed to an attack on the Swedish left and was unable to react to the threat. The Swedish cavalry and infantry rolled up the flank and turned the tide of the war.
Alte Veste 1632 -- The late summer saw the Swedish besieged by Wallenstein at Nürnberg. Wallenstein had been recalled after Tilly was mortally wounded earlier in the year. Wallenstein was unmatched in his ability to raise troops. The Imperial Army's ranks swelled as he moved to trap the Swedes at their important stronghold of Nürnberg. Repeatedly Gustav Adolf formed for battle and challenged Wallenstein to come out of his fortified camp, but he refused. As the supply situation worsened, the impetuous King attacked the Imperial camp at the Alte Veste "Old Fortress" -- a derelict castle atop a wooded hill that would then allow the Swedish guns to dominate the Imperial camp. The Imperials were prepared with trenches and an abatis that stymied the Swedish advance. When the vaunted brigades faltered, much of the cavalry was sent in dismounted. Wallenstein saw an opportunity to strike a blow and sallied his cavalry and cut down many of the exhausted troops. Only the cavalry reserve was able to avert a complete disaster. The invincible Swedes had been defeated. Gustav Adolf received reinforcements days later and Wallenstein broke camp and moved north.
Lützen 1632 -- The King pursued Wallenstein into Saxony. It was growing late in the year and the armies would need to disperse and encamp for the winter. Gustav Adolf sought to catch Wallenstein's army dispersed and defeat it in detail. Southeast of Leipzig the Swedes caught up to the Imperial main body. Wallenstein's army had detached two corps and was in serious danger. He quickly summoned his other troops to join him and chose his ground. He fortified a position at Lützen. The Swedes attacked, but a dense fog hampered their progress. In the confusion and fog, King Gustav Adolf was killed. The Swedish army continued the attack, mostly unaware of the death of their King. Both armies were battered, the Swedes with the heavier losses, but they had pushed the Imperials back. Despite receiving reinforcements, Wallenstein retired and conceded the field to the Swedes. The Swedes could not press the advantage in light of the King's death.
Honigfelde / Trzciano 1629 -- "I've never had a hotter bath!" exclaimed Gustav II Adolf upon his return. Very nearly captured while trying to extricate his army from a Polish and Imperial trap, this great cavalry battle showed the Poles were to be treated with respect. Rheingraf Otto Ludwig's German cavalry attacked the advancing Poles and was drawn into a pincer. Gustav Adolf rushed forward to save the impetuous Rheingraf. Koniecpolski showed his cunning. The Imperial contingent joined the fray and sent the Swedes falling back. The Imperial commander, von Arnim, would take the field with Gustav Adolf at Breitenfeld two years later.

Itself a temple to art, the museum contains work by the greats, from Cezanne to Degas, as well as contemporary artists. Standard adult admission price is $20 for two consecutive days – and as the third largest art museum in the US, you'd do well to space out your visit. Look out for the Art After 5 events in the great stair hall with live jazz concerts and a cash bar.
Independence Hall is where both the United States Declaration of Independence and United States Constitution were debated and adopted. Completed back in 1753, the building is now listed as a UNESCO world heritage site. Admission to the red brick building is free (pick up timed tickets at the Independence Visitors Center) and it's open all year round apart from Christmas Eve, Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Years Day.

Syam, that is the best statement I've seen on this subject, and it applies to all of the evils in the world, driven by money (drugs, guns, prostitution, rare animals etc.)
I saw shark fin soup for sale at a cheap buffett in the Hong Kong airport - bears out what Drew said, this practice is ubiquitious in China.
Posted 19 October 2009 - 10:28 PM
What you are suggesting regarding the hotels and restaurants is a good idea, but the impact of shark fin soup is much broader.
I have lived in China for the past year and a half and every single food store you go into has dozens if not hundreds of dried shark fins. If you figure thousands or tens of thousands of stores, then dozens to hundreds of fins per store, you are conservatively talking over a million fins in Chinese food stores at any one time. Then consider how many are sold and restocked.
For those of you in Europe, if you want to do some good while at home about this issue, boycott Carrefour. Every single Carrefour store I have been to in China has dozens and dozens of shark fins in their dried fish section. This is a European based company, not some Asian food chain who can claim it is their culture. They stock the fins only for financial gain.
If you want to have fun get a picture of shark fins with the giant Carrefour sign in the background. Then publish that back in Europe where people are more sensitive about the issue. Start a boycott Cerrefour website. That will generate some publicity for this entire movement.
Another thing, you are addressing it from the perspective of the person making money off of it (restaurant and hotel owners).
You can't just pick up a picket sign or start signing petitions, you need to consider their culture. If you try to go in and take an aggressive approach like boycotting, to be frank, all you are going to do is piss them off and they will ignore you for patronizing their culture.
I think you would get a much greater impact just educating the general public. China is now much "greener" than you would think. Not only does the average Chinese consume far less paper and plastics then the average westerner, but they are also becoming quite green aware. I am referring educated city residents, not just 'villagers'.
You constantly see pro green commercials on TV here in China. Someone mentioned that as more Chinese gain economical position they too will be able to afford or want to consume shark fin soup, but those same people are much more interested in a "worldly perspective" then just consuming shark fin soup. They tend to have a very willing ear towards conservation.
If it were me and I wanted to make an impact on this issue I would appeal to the National Geographic channel and the Discovery channel to run educational programs on the subject. Most Chinese cable and satellite packages have the channels as an option. (The programs are in Chinese, not English.)
In China every third commercial on Nat Geo or Discovery is a green message because they don't really have a lot or commercials selling products and they need to fill that space each hour. I would guess that for an hour long program, 45 minutes is content, 5 minutes are green messages, 5+ minutes are messages about upcoming programming, and the very small remaining bit is an actual "TV Commercial" as you think of them.
So the Chinese already hear a lot of green messages on a regular basis and it seems well accepted. Nat Geo and Discovery are obviously already leaning the green direction, but due to the absence of me ever seeing any information on shark finning, perhaps they are avoiding broadcasting information because they are afraid of a "cultural conflict".
If you are going to petition anyone, petition Nat Geo and Discovery, who already have the Chinese' eyes and ears every hour of every day. They must have a reason for pushing everything else green but anti shark fin soup messages, plus as eco active groups themselves they should be willing to listen. Maybe if you petition them they will tell you why they have not broadcast much about it, at least not in the past year ad a half that I have been watching.
I saw quite a few programs that you would consider "anti establishment". For example, programs on Tiananmen Square, China's pollution problems, etc. So I can't imagine that Nat Geo and Discovery are being forbidden by China to run a shark fin program, but maybe so...

...I think you would get a much greater impact just educating the general public. China is now much "greener" than you would think...
I was recently approached (via e-mail) by the editor of a Chinese photography magazine called PhotoWorld. They ended up doing an 8-page article about my underwater photography, which you can see here, along with a rough English translation.
Because it was my grinning shark photo that got their attention in the first place, I had an opportunity to answer a few questions about sharks. Trying to do my small part to raise awareness (especially in China!) of the plight of sharks in general, my answer to one of his questions (that was used in the article) included the following:
"Unfortunately the worlds shark populations are being
decimated as shark fins are cut off to meet people's demand for shark fin soup - sharks are caught
by ships, their fins cut off and the live sharks thrown back in the water to die. I very much hope
that my photos can help people to understand this horrific act, and influence people to no longer
eat shark's fin soup, so that the dwindling number of shark species can recover."
Hopefully some of China's photographers who read that article will think twice the next time they see shark-fin soup on a menu.
I also try to raise the shark topic whenever I'm asked to speak to groups about photography. I realize it's just a tiny drop in the bucket, but if all of us use every opportunity we have to raise awareness, it might start making a dent in the demand...

The fault, in my eyes, lies with the western multi-Nationals like Carrefour and Albertsons and Supa-Value who continue to sell shark products even after being subject to anti-Shark Finning information campaigns.
Change starts when companies such as the above realize that what they are doing is blatantly contributing to what is to all extents and purposes a marine genocide.

appart from saying non-sense, I think we'll do it. when you see how fast is growing ecology, MPAs, conservation actions and all that stuff, it have to be the cancer of shark finning.
let's just bring what we can in it.
Posted 09 November 2009 - 09:23 AM
We should find a molecule to add to sharks all around the world that would give a bad desease to anyone that would eat it, and ramdomly do it all over the world, with communications actions. what if you get 3% chances to get sick everytime you eat shark product?
That molecule exists. It is called methyl mercury and I wasn't kidding about it's effect on fertility. Check out this brief blurb from the Centre for Food Safety in Hong Kong.
It sort of sends an odd message to serve a heaping dose of fertility killers at weddings!

Several months ago there was the restaurant in L.A. who were caught serving whale and, again, the proactive amongst us sent waves of protest and the restaurant closed down and some were arrested.
Last month at DEMA, there were protests regarding the serving of shark fin soup and again, the restaurant policy was changed.
All I am saying is that we as a community of divers have more power than we think as our numbers are larger than we imagine them to be. We can affect change if we try.

When the opportunity exists among friends, I often mention that sharks are killed at the rate of 95 million per year, mostly for fin and leather, the meat goes to waste in deep water and is not usable by other animals. This is shocking news to most folks living in the landlocked midwestern USA, but they always seem interested in stopping this waste. That's when I hand out the seafood cards and encourage them to join a good conservation group that can speak for thousands of members at once.
Now here is a study of the economics of live sharks versus dead ones. Irrefutable evidence for local villagers to keep the sharks alive:

It's so heartening to see so many of you underwater mariners concerned with marine life and sharks.
You opened my eyes, I had no idea there were so many restaurants in the US serving the vile soup.
I immediately started writing scathing reviews of restaurants right here in Florida that serve it.
I am livid that so many people are so ignorant of, or uncaring of, the wanton slaughter of millions of sharks worldwide just so a few idiots can have a stupid tasteless bowl of soup. AHRG!!

First, it is completely free from oil, so it will not mark wood, react to any type of finish, or leave a film on any surface.
Second, it is manufactured in very long strands from top-grade steel and is highly resistant to crumbling. For example, you can use this steel wool for work on the lathe without it pulling apart in your hands.
It leaves less residue and is longer lasting than ordinary steel wool. It comes in continuous 250 gram (8.8 oz) packages that can be cut to length as required.
The extra-fine grade is equivalent to #000/0000, the fine to #00, and the medium to #1.

Cain Makes Six Saves
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Yale field hockey team has now finished a stretch in which the Bulldogs played four of the teams currently ranked in the top five in the country. While Yale managed to show some bright spots against each of them, Saturday's 4-0 loss at No. 5 Virginia left the Bulldogs 0-for-4 against those top-ranked teams.
Yale (3-7, 1-2 Ivy League) has also fallen to No. 1 Syracuse, No. 3 UConn and No. 4 Princeton in recent weeks. This was the halfway point of a stretch of five road games for the Bulldogs, played roughly 100 miles from the hometown of senior midfielder/back Mary Beth Barham (Fairfax, Va.).
"It was a great experience to be able to travel out of region like this and play such a strong team," said Yale head coach Pam Stuper. "What we were hoping when we scheduled these games was to be challenged defensively, and that would help prepare us for the remainder of our season."
The Cavaliers entered the week third in the country in goals per game (4.38), so holding them to four goals marked an accomplishment for a Yale team that also managed to blank the No. 1 team in the country (Syracuse) in the second half of last weekend's game.
"This was definitely some of the best defense we've played," said Stuper. She noted in particular the work of junior midfielder Erica Borgo, who helped hold U.S. Olympic midfielder Michelle Vitesse to just two shots and no points (Vitesse had seven goals and five assists entering the day).
But once again, the Bulldogs could not generate enough offense to supplement their effective defense. Barham had the team's lone shot.
Junior goalkeeper Emily Cain made four saves for Yale, while Jenny Johnstone and Rebecca Holden combined for the shutout for the Cavaliers.
Forward Paige Selenski, who was fourth in the country in goals per game at the start of the week, had two goals while Forward Taylor Brown and back Elly Buckley also scored. Selenski played in the 2012 London Olympics with current Yale volunteer assistant Melissa Gonzalez.
While the Bulldogs are done playing top-five teams for now, they do have games left on the schedule against the current No. 12 team (BU Oct. 28) and the current No. 22 team (Albany Oct. 21). Next week Yale travels to Dartmouth Saturday and Vermont Sunday.
Every goal Yale scores this season brings the world closer to a cure for myotonic dystrophy. Senior goalkeeper Ona McConnell (London, England) has been diagnosed with the disease, the most common form of muscular dystrophy. The Bulldogs are taking pledges for a season-long "Goal-a-thon" as part of their "Get a Grip" campaign to raise awareness and funds for the Myotonic Dystrophy Foundation.

Thick white sticky mucus / breathing, speech
For about 4-5 years now I`ve had problems breathing as well as a thick white sticky (like glue) mucus in my nose that won`t just blow out (I have to pick it out everyday). I`ve tried about everything. I used a Neti-pot for a long time and that didn`t help. I`ve taken about every type of sinus medications. I`ve went to a ENT doctor / plastic surgeon a few times over it and he thought maybe it was chronic sinusitis and said I had a very deviated septum and gave me antibiotics for the sinus infection but that didn`t help at all. He also suggested for me to get a CT scan but I don`t have any health insurance. I clear my throat about 100 times a day and try to hock the mucus up about 100 times a day. Nothing seems to help. I`m wondering maybe if I had surgery to correct my septum if it would take care of everything. I have trouble breathing out of my nose and most of the time I have to use my mouth to breath at all. I have trouble talking a lot because of this problem. It has had me very depressed for some time now. Please help
It sounds like you have two problems. You are having trouble breathing out of your nose and you need to clear your throat a lot. It sounds like straightening your septum (septoplasty) might really help you a lot. Before you have surgery on your nose, you should have a CT scan to make sure that there are no major sinus problems that should be addressed at the same time.
The throat clearing and thick mucus in the throat probably is related to acid reflux. It is often associated with intermittent hoarseness, a lump in the throat sensation, cough and difficulty swallowing. This condition is strongly influenced by diet and lifestyle. Tobacco, alcohol, fizzy drinks (soda), caffeine drinks and acidic fruits (orange, grapefruit, etc) can make it worse. Going to sleep shortly after eating can make this problem worse as can certain medications. The treatment is usually dietary and lifestyle modifications as well as taking medications that decrease stomach acid production (Prilosec, Zantac, etc). I suggest you talk with your physician further about these problems and potential treatments.

Slightly more motorists died in crashes this year than last year in Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes, State Police records show.
Slightly more motorists died in crashes this year than last year in Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes, State Police records show.
In Terrebonne Parish, there were 14 fatal crashes that killed 15 people, up from the 10 wrecks and 12 deaths of 2011. In Lafourche Parish, there were 16 fatal crashes that killed 17 people, up from last year's 14 crashes and 14 deaths.
In all, there were 41 fatal crashes and 43 deaths in the area covered by State Police Troop C, which includes all of Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes and parts of Assumption, St. James and St. John parishes.
Troop C spokesman Evan Harrell said state figures haven't been officially tallied yet, but officials expect the overall number of fatalities to decrease for the fifth year in a row. So, though individual parish numbers fluctuated, the larger trend is still positive.
"Overall we're happy to see the numbers continuing to go down," Harrell said. "It seems that efforts to educate people on driving safety are working."
Of the 41 fatal crashes in the area, 15 involved alcohol, records show. Alcohol tests are still pending or alcohol use is unknown in another eight crashes.
Of the 43 people killed, 13 were not wearing their seat belts, State Police said.
The vast majority of the crashes killed drivers, though five pedestrians and seven passengers also died.
Final national figures also aren't available for how many fatal crashes occurred in 2012, but earlier statistics suggest the number of deadly wrecks rose throughout the country. By September, 25,580 people had died on U.S. roads, up 7.1 percent from last year, according to a study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The study's authors pointed out that one year's increase should not be cause for alarm — more drivers drove more total miles this year than last year.
"It is too soon to speculate on the contributing factors or potential implications of any increase in deaths on our roadways," they wrote. "It should be noted that the historic downward trend in traffic fatalities in the past several years means any comparison will be to an unprecedented low baseline figure."
The numbers for 2011, the authors said, are the lowest reported in 60 years.
The last local person to die in a crash was Gaspard Brazan of Vacherie, who was struck by an 18-wheeler Dec. 14 while chasing after his dog.

There have been volumes written on how the presidential debates might impact the election. With their conclusion last week the polls have shown a significant impact.
Our simulation model which uses the latest state wide polls has been run each week since the beginning of summer. Its estimate of the probability of the President winning reelection peaked at 99.9% on September 28 when the electoral college math showed there was no likely way that Governor Romney could garner the necessary 270 electoral votes.
But the campaigns continued, the Benghazi attack was still making headlines, the stock market dropped, and the debates began.
With the first debate came performance critiques of the two candidates and new state polls. By the end of that week the race had tightened. Our model predicted that Governor Romney had gained in several key states primarily Florida, Virginia, and North Carolina. With this surge his probability of winning also rose – moving from 0% the week before to 11% on October 5.
The following week provided an opportunity for the Vice Presidential candidates to debate. As the debate was late in the week they could not have had significant impact on that week's polls. Instead the new polls were more likely a continuation of the results of the first debate. On Octaber 12 our model showed a continued decline for the President with his probability of reelection dropping to 82%. At the same time Governor Romney's probability of winning rose to 16% and for the first time in several months the probability of an electoral college tie reached significance at 2%.
The effects of the Vice Presidential debate and the third Presidential debate could be seen in the following week's polls. As of October 19, Governor Romney's chances continued to rise reaching a probabilty of 25%. Similarly President Obama's probability of winning continued its slide dropping to 73%. The probability of a tie held at just under 2%.
Now the debates have been concluded and the candidates are back to the criss-crossing the country giving stump speeches in the battleground states. But with this return to the traditional campaign has also come a return to President Obama's reelection hopes. As of last week our model shows the chance of reelection reversing, climbing from the previous week's low back up above 92%. Similarly Romney's chances have declined to about 7% with the probability of tie again dropping below 1%.
Why the reversal? A noticeable change has occurred in Florida. Romney had taken significant leads in the Sunshine State over the past several weeks. While still leading Florida has again tightened. Similarly Romney's Virgninia lead has dropped to a tie. And in Ohio, a key for a Republican victory, the polls show that while Obama had been able to retain a slight lead throughout most of October, his lead has increased over the last week.
While the model does not indicate that reelection is a certainty, it does indicate good news for the President. Our model currently predicts an electoral college vote of 301 for President Obama and 237 for Governor Romney – a buffer of only 31 votes – a slim margin in electoral college math. But with only a week to go, and early voting and absentee voting already in progress, our model indcates the GOP may have a significant challenge to get those 31.

Asustek Seeks to Challenge Apple in Tablets
Taiwanese electronics maker Asustek Computer Inc. 2357.TW +0.48% is trumpeting that it will be Apple's biggest challenger in combined tablet and notebook shipments by next year.
That's right — Asustek thinks it can beat out everyone else besides Apple.
Although it's the world's biggest motherboard maker and fifth-largest laptop maker by shipments, Asustek — whose computers are sold under the "Asus" brand – is still unfamiliar to many Western consumers.
But Asustek's thrown its hat in the ring this year with two aggressively priced products: the Nexus 7, a popular $199 seven-inch tablet it's selling in partnership withGoogle Inc. GOOG -1.00%, and the 11.6-inch Vivobook, currently the top-selling touch screen notebook on Best Buy Co. BBY -1.64%'s website at $499.99.
While it's far from a sure bet that Asustek can vault past larger tablet competitors such as South Korea's Samsung – currently the world's second biggest tablet maker by shipments — analysts say its latest low-priced offerings at least gives it a seat at the big kids' table of the mobile computing realm.
Asustek has been trying to carve out a niche in tablet-notebook hybrid devices. It's also been targeting the U.S. market this year by, for instance, starting up a Twitter presence in May.
Asustek Chief Financial Officer David Chang said Monday that the company expects to ship 12 million Android tablets in 2013, up 90.5% from 6.3 million in 2012. It expects combined Windows notebook and tablet shipments to grow 7.6% to 24 million units in 2013 from 22.3 million this year.
Mr. Chang says he believes the popularity of seven-inch tablets can boost the company to second place in combined tablet and notebook shipments after Apple next year. The company's quarterly tablet shipments have tripled since the launch of the Nexus 7 in July.
But analysts say silver medal is still a lofty goal for this little-known Taiwanese company, which takes its name from the hind half of Pegasus, the mythical winged horse. In the third quarter, Asustek ranked fourth among tablet makers with 8.6% of the market, behind Apple with 50.4%, Samsung with 18.4% and Amazon.com Inc. AMZN -0.04% with 9.0%, according to market researcher IDC.

This past Monday night there was a riot at the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota. It was the rare Twin Cities story that drew national attention. John was able to contribute an eyewitness report from one of his daughters in our post "Riot at the Mall of America."
What happened? We still don't know the origin of the riot. I've been looking over the past week for the Star Tribune — Newspaper of the Twin Cities — to get to the bottom of the story. For some reason, however, the story remains about where it was Monday night or Tuesday morning. Will the Sunday paper have something to offer? If so, I'll let you know.

A bi-partisan majority of congressional members sent a letter to U.S. President Barak Obama late last week. In the letter, the members insist that the time has come for this U.S. government to hold the Arab Palestinian leadership responsible for their bald refusal to comply with repeated requests from the United States government to refrain from seeking an enhanced status at the United Nations General Assembly, as is required of the Arabs under the Oslo Agreements under which it is bound.
The PLO pledged in the Oslo Agreements that it would take no unilateral actions to change the status of the disputed territories and Gaza.
Congressional leadership that has long been involved in working with Israel and the Arab Palestinians in attempts to resolve the Middle East conflict, such as U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL), Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, U.S. Rep. Howard L. Berman (D-CA), Ranking Member of the Committee, U.S. Reps. Edward R. Royce (R-CA) and Eliot L. Engel (D-NY, Chairman-designate and Ranking Member-designate, respectively, of the Committee, along with more than 230 other members of Congress, signed and sent the letter to the President on Friday, December 21.
The letter informed the President that "we believe the United States must react strongly to the 'Palestinian' leadership's failure to uphold its obligations," and explained that in order to send a clear message of U.S. disapproval, the Arab leaders must learn that their actions are not "cost-free," and, "at a minimum, they result in setbacks to U.S.-'Palestinian' relations."
Congressional members suggested that the minimal steps the U.S. should take at this time would be to close the PLO office in Washington, D.C. and to call on the U.S. Consul General in Jerusalem – who is, illogically, responsible for relations with the Arab Palestinians but not Jewish or Arab Israelis – back to Washington for consultations.
The congressional letter to President Obama points out the necessity for the U.S. government to ensure that the UNGA vote on November 29 "does not serve as a precedent for elevating the status of the PLO in other UN bodies or international forums."
Should the PLO attempt to force its hand by seeking membership in those other UN institutions, the congressional members told President Obama that, "we should do everything possible to make sure that does not happen, including by reaffirming our commitment to maintaining and enforcing U.S. laws that require withholding U.S. contributions from any international forum that grants membership to the PLO."
The PLO envoy in Washington, Maen Aerikat, told the Palestinian News Agency Ma'an, that the congressional letter "is an attempt by Congress to undermine the U.S. administration in any possible role it is planning to play in Palestinian affairs."
In addition to pointing out that "punitive measures won't pay off. If they were effective we would have already changed our mind," Aerikat railed at Israel, suggesting it was behind the congressional effort. He said, "It is a political decision, a decision on the part of the Israeli government to escalate things against the Palestinian people at home and here…the U.S. is their other front."
In a letter circulated to members of Congress by the PLO Envoy on December 14, Aerikat sought to dissuade Congress from responding to the PA provocation. Aerikat makes several points in his letter, one of which should qualify for the Chutzpah Hall of Fame. Perhaps he forgot that the action taken by Congress was in response to the decision by his colleagues to spurn dialogue and negotation, and instead to take unilateral action by introducing a one-sided resolution at the U.N. This is what Aerikat wrote:
Engagement and dialogue is the only way to express the views of Congress. Biased and one-sided resolutions cannot contribute to an atmosphere that is conducive for a political resolution to the conflict.
Not all Jews supported the congressional effort. In the interview with Ma'an, Aerikat appreciatively listed both J Street and Americans for Peace Now as organizations that oppose the initiative to punish the Arab Palestinians for violating the Oslo Accords by seeking unilateral changes through the UN vote. Although not mentioned by the PLO Envoy, the Union for Reform Judaism has also actively lobbied against congressional efforts to shutter the PLO Office.

Kylie Minogue's hit "Can't Get You Out Of My Head" has topped a poll to find the world's catchiest song.
Scientists at the Institute of Brain, Behaviour and Mental Health in Manchester, England, carried out a survey of 700 test subjects to establish which track registers strongest in the memory.
They hope the study will provide clues about why humans remember music and will help to find new ways to aid those suffering from diseases such as dementia.
Musicologist John Ashley, who is working on the project, says, "Understanding catchy music is about much more than just a recipe for next week's number one hit: It's the key to understanding why musical memories last a lifetime."
The survey placed Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" in second, Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" in third and ABBA's "SOS" in fourth.
Minogue's 2001 hit topped the charts in dozens of countries.

Grading and Report Cards
In order for HISD students to be promoted to the next grade level, they must show that they have learned what the State of Texas requires of all public school children. HISD "Promotion Standards" generally include classroom grades and a local or state test. Details about the standards are available online through your child's school.
Grading and Report Cards 2018–2019
Academic Subjects Conduct 90–100 = Excellent E = Excellent 80–89 = Good; above average S = Satisfactory 75–79 = Satisfactory; average P = Poor; below average 70–74 = Passing; below average U = Unsatisfactory Below 70 = Unsatisfactory; failingGrade ClassificationIn high school, a student's total credits determine the student's classification—i.e.., what grade level or "year" the student is in. Board of Education policy concerning classification is described in HISD Board Policy EIE(LOCAL). Credits Earned Classification (year) 0–5.5 grade 9 (freshman) 6–11.5 grade 10 (sophomore) 12–17.5 grade 11 (junior) 18 or more grade 12 (senior)Grades and Extracurricular ActivitiesUnder the state's "no pass/no play" law, eligibility for participation in extracurricular activities during the first six weeks of the school year is determined by a student's grades from the final grading cycle of the previous school year or the number of credits earned during the previous school year. After the first six weeks, a student who receives a grade lower than 70 (or the equivalent) in any academic course is ineligible to participate in extracurricular activities during the first three school weeks of the next grading period. During that time, the student may continue to practice or rehearse with other students but may not take part in any competition or public performance.
2018-2019 Six-Week Grading Periods (used in most secondary schools)
First Grading Period: August 27 to October 5 Second Grading Period: October 8 to November 9 Third Grading Period: November 12 to December 20 Fourth Grading Period: January 7 to February 15 Fifth Grading Period: February 18 to April 5 Sixth Grading Period April 8 to May 31

- October 12
- November 16
- January 11
- February 22
- April 12
- May 31
Certain middle schools and high schools, however, observe nine-week grading periods; see the schedule for elementary schools below.
2018-2019 Nine-Week Grading Periods (used in elementary schools and certain secondary schools)
First Grading Period: August 27 to October 26 Second Grading Period: October 29 to December 20 Third Grading Period: January 7 to March 8 Fourth Grading Period: March 18 to May 31Report CardsElementary schools (and certain secondary schools) send report cards to parents four times during the year, shortly after the end of each nine-week grading period:

The call to makers for Brighton Mini Maker Faire 2012 is currently open, and we're on the hunt for makers of all types to help fill a much bigger venue than last year. This year's event is on Saturday 8th September at the Corn Exchange in Brighton.
In particular we're interested in hearing from anyone who:
* Has an interactive project that others can try or make
* Can lead a workshop with adults and/or kids
* Is a teacher or student who's up for getting their school or college involved
* Makes their own musical instrument(s) and would like to join our Brighton Mini Maker Faire band
* Has an idea for a large-scale make than the public can contribute to (origami seagull flock? Lego model of Brighton?)
* Could help design and build decor for the Corn Exchange to make it a magical maker wonderland!
As well as all this ambitious stuff, we're also welcoming applications from makers of all types and scales who have a project they can share. We'd love to meet bodgers, welders, sculptors and engineers; food hackers, origami experts, yarn bombers, recyclers, upcyclers and permaculturists; festival performers and set designers; space explorers model makers, Lego geeks and mad scientists.
Whatever you make, please get in touch. And if you're not a maker yourself, but know someone who is, please tell them about it.

The World's Greatest Mai Tai/
Dear Tri-State Weather,
You are being a whiny little beeyotch this week. After putting up with all your petulant bullshit throughout the entirety of spring (wait, what spring? Exactly), now you are ruining Summer Cocktail Week. I plan a Mai Tai post and you decide that it's a good day for intermittent drizzle and an overcast sky that can only be described as pawn-shop pewter. Do you see a dot-uk at the end of this blog's url? You're just fucking un-American, weather.
The World's Greatest Mai Tai
1 1/2 ounces Myers Rum
1 ounce of another dark rum of your choice
1/2 ounce orange curacao
1 1/4 ounces lime juice
1/2 ounce orange juice
1/2 ounce orgeat
1/4 ounce simple syrup
Orange peel and cocktail umbrella, for garnish
Combine all liquid ingredients into an ice-filled cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds. Strain into a Pilsener glass that has been filled with crushed ice, swizzle-style. Garnish.

NHS hospitals will have to submit data on the number of girls and women who have suffered female genital mutilation (FGM), the government has announced.
Among a range of measures aimed at targeting the illegal practice, it will be mandatory for hospitals to tell the Department of Health on a monthly basis of any cases they see of FGM.
The data will be held centrally and shared with other government departments and the police to build up a picture of the extent of FGM across the UK.
The announcement comes after a senior Scotland Yard officer said young girls who have suffered FGM were being failed by doctors who do not report cases to the police.
Detective Superintendent Jason Ashwood, head of Scotland Yard's FGM team, told The Times: "I can hardly think of an example of a doctor calling up to say 'I have someone (with FGM) with me in A&E, please can you send an officer'. That just does not happen.
"It's clear when professionals are seeing people who are survivors or at risk of FGM, it's not being referred to police. What we need is to get our people in the public sector to fulfil their safeguarding responsibilities.
"It's child abuse. Police are just at the end of the line of the process. You can only react to what you find, and what you are told."
Government rules say healthcare professionals have a duty to safeguard patients at risk or girls who have undergone FGM. Doctors are told to inform social services who work with the police to determine what action is required.
Latest figures suggest that as many as 66,000 women in England and Wales have undergone FGM and 23,000 girls under the age of 15 are at risk.
The Home Office also announced a new £100,000 fund, which will enable charities to bid for pots of cash to raise awareness of FGM in communities.
Crime prevention minister Norman Baker said: "There is no justification whatsoever for female genital mutilation - it is child abuse and it is illegal.
"We have launched a new FGM Community Engagement Initiative, we are continuing our work with the director of public prosecutions to help secure convictions and we are part-funding a study into the prevalence of FGM in the UK.
"I am chairing a cross-government ministerial round-table to discuss our work to end FGM and reaffirm our commitment to protecting the current and future generations of girls from this abuse."
Hospitals will have to record if a patient has had FGM, if there is a family history of FGM and if a woman has undergone a procedure related to FGM. This includes deinfibulation, where the vagina is opened up again such as for childbirth.
Public health minister Jane Ellison said: "Female genital mutilation is an abhorrent practice that has no place in this - or any other - society.
"In order to combat it and ensure we can care properly for the girls and women who have undergone mutilation we need to build a more accurate nationwide picture of the challenge. This is the first step towards doing that."
International development minister Lynne Featherstone said: "We will not see an end to FGM in the UK unless the practice is eliminated worldwide. This will take a grassroots movement across Africa that can change attitudes and help communities see FGM for what it is - child abuse."
Janet Fyle professional policy advisor at the Royal College of Midwives, said: "FGM is child abuse and we want midwives, health and social care professionals and other frontline staff to be vigilant, and take action if they are concerned about a young girl at risk of FGM."
The Director of Public Prosecutions in the UK, Alison Saunders, has insisted the Crown Prosecution Service is "raising its game" over FGM.
There have been no prosecutions for FGM despite it being banned in the UK since 1985.
Alison Saunders told The Times: "We are really stepping up what we are doing on FGM. This is not a problem unique to London.
"I want to make sure we are there to provide advice to the police forces dealing with cases, as these are incredibly difficult to prosecute. This network will share information so that we are raising our game consistently across the country."
She added that the CPS is increasingly looking at evidence secured by covert surveillance, to avoid the need for a child to testify in court - often against a family member.
FGM guidelines already issued by the government state that if a girl is identified as having had FGM, this should always be reported to the police as it is likely to be a crime.
If a girl is identified as being at risk, which she would be if an older family member has undergone FGM, then safeguarding child protection procedures should be followed.

This came out late last night — at least here in Rome — and so I missed a couple of e-mails on this rather momentous occasion when Senate Democrats finally produce a budget. It's the first time in four years, and now it's easy to see why they didn't want to put their plans on paper. The FY2014 plan being moved in committee by new Budget Committee chair Patty Murray will hike taxed by $1.5 trillion — and spend even more than we do now.
A Republican staffer on Capitol Hill sent me this chart, along with an explanation:
The Senate Democrats' budget claims to increase taxes $975B over the next ten years. They are actually hiding an additional $500 billion in tax proposals buried in their 113 page budget document ("Restoring the Promise of American Opportunity").
First, at the top of page 8 they propose $100 billion dollars for a "jobs and infrastructure" package that "is fully paid for by eliminating loopholes and cutting wasteful spending in the tax code . . . ". This provision is hidden in the resolution itself as a so-called reserve fund (section 308).
Second, in the middle of page 21 they propose that "The budget replaces sequestration using the following equal mix of responsible spending cuts and new revenue . . . ." This includes "$480 billion in new revenue raised by closing loopholes and ending wasteful deductions . . . ." This is implemented through a reserve fund in the resolution (section 403).
Finally, on page 66 the budget document says "The Senate Budget calls for deficit reduction of $975 billion to be achieve eliminate loopholes and cutting unfair and inefficient spending in the tax code . . . ." This is the amount the Chairman refers to and the resolution directs the Finance Committee to provide this amount. However, this $975 billion includes $164 billion to extend refundable tax credits that were originally adopted in the stimulus bill. These tax credits are actually checks sent to people that do not owe income tax and, therefore, according to CBO, are increases in spending. Subtracting the $164 billion from $975 billion leaves a $923 billion tax hike (which is then added to the additional $580).
That's two-and-a-half times larger than the tax hike Democrats won over the New Year break. Is that matched by cuts in spending, for a balanced approach to deficit reform? Not even close. According to another Republican staffer, spending increases every year over the projected ten-year window, far outpacing anticipated inflation:
Compared to the Senate Budget Committee Republican baseline (which is CBO baseline, without extension of Sandy Emergency category funding and with CBO's alternative OCO path (to eliminate possibility of phony war and disaster relief savings), Murray's budget spends a total of $207 billion more than the SBC baseline outlays over 10 years. The SBC baseline is a more accurate one because it's less vulnerable to gimmicks, assumes roughly $46.2 trillion in spending over ten years. (this baseline is essentially Paul Ryan's baseline as well, fyi.) Murray's own budget says it spends $46.4 trillion over the ten year window. …
Murray's budget spends $2.2 trillion more in 2023 (the last year of the budget window) than the 2013 levels – a 62% increase (significantly outpacing inflation).
Needless to say, this is a dead letter among Republicans:
The "budget would raise taxes on Americans by $1.5 trillion to pay for increased spending … on top of the $1.7 trillion in tax increases already signed into law during the Obama administration," said a statement from Sen. John Thune, the chairman of the Senate Republican Conference.
"The policies of big spending and big government have led to a dismal average economic growth rate of just 0.8 percent over the past four years. It's time to grow the economy, not the government," he added. …
Sen. Jeff Sessions, the senior Republican on Murray's budget committee, pitched a slower-growing, economy-boosting budget plan that would help people manage their own lives.
"We need to grow the economy, not the government," he said in a statement. "We must act to create more jobs and better pay. And we can do it without adding to the debt," he said, before ticking off a series of optimist-sounding measures.
"Pro-growth tax reform, more domestic energy production, make the welfare office a place to restart lives … enforce immigration law to ensure fairness for American workers, eliminate every burdensome federal regulation that isn't needed and that destroys jobs [and] balance the federal budget," Sessions said in a press statement.
What about President Balanced Approach? Oh, he likes the Murray budget:
"The Senate Democratic budget is a concrete plan that will grow our economy and shrink our deficits in a balanced way, consistent with the [p]resident's belief that our economy grows best from the middle-out, not the top-down, while reducing the debt as a share of the economy," said the statement.
For more fun, try to count how many times Jay Carney said the word "balance" in his press briefing yesterday, and then reconcile that with what we see in the Senate Democrat plan. Maybe by "balance," Democrats mean "making up for lost time on tax hikes."

NEW HAVEN, Conn. — The Yale women's fencing team will welcome three freshmen—Olivia Briffault, Lillie Lainoff and Joanna Lew—when it starts up competition again in the fall.
The trio of fencers will join a young and energetic team led by junior Lauren Miller and long-time coach Henry Harutunian. They will have to step into the shoes left by graduates in the class of 2013, Madeline Oliver and Robyn Shaffer, who both captained the team in recent years.
The freshmen bring a collection of experience and past performances, however, that bode well for the Bulldogs, who will be looking to build upon results this past season.
A New York native, Briffault fences epee and foil and attended Hunter College High School. There, she captained a team that won four consecutive city championships. In addition, she finished in fourth place at the December Division II NAC and fenced at the 2011 Vienna European Maccabi games and the 2013 Israel Maccabi Games.
Lainoff, meanwhile, hails from Washington, D.C., and attended Woodrow Wilson High School. She fences saber at the DC Fencers Club and recorded a seventh-place finish at the Division II summer nationals and a 20th-place finish at the Division IA summer nationals.
A fellow saber fencer, Lew arrives at Yale from Durham, N.C., and the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics. She started fencing at eight years old and has trained extensively at the Mid-South Fencer's Club. She began competing nationally in ninth grade and after 10TH grade, finished third in Juniors at summer nationals. In her junior year, she finished 24th individually at a Cadet World Cup in London and second in team at the Cadet World Cup in Godollo, Hungary. Last year she finished in the top 32 at a Division I NAC.

At Forrester, Taylor and Thomas talk about how he deserves more. Thomas feels it isn't going to happen there and says he's going to Paris. He adds that he may not come back. They wonder why Stephanie set them up to be blindsided. Taylor remarks that she lost her mind and fell in love with Brooke too. Taylor and Thomas say they'll miss each other. She asks him to talk to Steffy while he's there and says she loves and supports him unconditionally. They embrace.
Hit The Jackpot.
Maya's on Dayzee's mind, Pam finds Eric with Donna, and Taylor confronts Eric.
Dayzee and Marcus enjoy champagne and caviar in bed. Dayzee still can't believe sometimes that she's a Forrester. He asks if the lifestyle bothers her sometimes. She says she loves everything about it and wonders if it makes her shallow. He says she couldn't be shallow if she tried. Dayzee remarks that it all happened because Stephanie lost a scarf - sometimes she's afraid to look back. She flashes to Maya. Marcus asks if she's okay and tells her how great she is. "I definitely hit the jackpot." They talk about Marcus' adoptive family. He says they were great and he will always be grateful for them. Dayzee says, "That's what I thought." She thinks back to Maya's agonizing decision to give up her daughter. Marcus returns with a refill and she kisses him passionately.
Donna finds Eric gazing at Stephanie's portrait at home. She tells him she's there to catch him if he falls. He thanks her for stopping by. Donna has takeout and heads to the kitchen to unpack. Pam enters - also with food. Pam tells Eric he's not alone. He replies, "Speaking of that..." Donna appears holding a honey bottle and calling Eric 'Honeybear'. Eric says this is just what he needed - the two of them there. Pam wonders if he's thought of getting a dog. Something is burning. Pam can't believe Donna's burning takeout and heads to the kitchen. She returns to find Eric fondling Donna's curls and says it's too bad she can't stay. Donna says she's actually free. Taylor appears - she needs to talk to Eric alone. Donna and Pam file out. Taylor rants to Eric that because of Stephanie and her loophole, her son might be gone for good! Eric says Thomas should have come to him - they're family. Taylor says family actually means, 'we bow to Brooke'. She marvels at Stephanie calling for Brooke on her deathbed - she thinks Stephanie wanted to die with Brooke because she was more like her than anyone realized - it was a narcissist's dream; dying in her own arms. She hollers and Stephanie's portrait falls down. Taylor looks spooked.
Spoilers for Next Week on The Bold and the Beautiful:
Eric must referee between Thomas and Rick.
Hope makes her move.
Dayzee's in an uncomfortable spot concerning Maya.
