All students ages 14, 15, 16, and 17 need employment certificates (work permits) in order to comply with state and federal Child Labor Laws. Students ages 12 and 13 may only work as caddies (restricted to caddying 18 holes per day). They are required to obtain employment certificates. Newspaper carriers are not required to obtain employment certificates. Applications for all employment certificates for public and nonpublic students can be obtained on the Bethlehem Area School District website or at the Child Accounting Office at the Education Center (1516 Sycamore Street, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania). BASD students can also obtain employment certificate applications at their middle schools, and high schools.
Employment certificate applications for Bethlehem Area School District students (ages 14, 15, 16 and 17), once completed, must be turned in to the Child Accounting Office at the Education Center or the students' middle or high school. Work Permits are transferable from job to job and are valid until age 18 or graduation from high school. The student must return the completed application, not the parent. Students must sign their Work Permits in the presence of their school office or the Child Accounting Office at the Education Center.
All nonpublic students must obtain and turn in their completed employment certificate applications to the Child Accounting Office at the Education Center.
All must be completed before a work permit may be issued but not necessarily in this order:

Wow. One off-the-cuff post about the US Attorney scandal really brought out the right-wing trolls. Which is in itself fine, since I realize that a lot of readers of this blog are right of center. No offense to the sensible conservatives out there, but to the trolls:
Stop being stupid.
In particular, I am referring to the "Clinton fired all the US Attorneys, so there's no scandal when Bush fired some of his" argument which I have heard from multiple commenters and in personal emails. (Strangely, the emails have been far more vulgar and abusive than the comments; most all are anonymous.)
I'll explain this slowly and using small words for you:
US Attorneys are all political appointees, and at the beginning of a new administration they are all replaced with new appointees, just like the Cabinet and other political appointees. So yes, Clinton replaced all 93 US Attorneys at the beginning of his administration, just as GW Bush and Reagan did at the beginning of theirs.
This is different.
Allegedly (and once again, I am not claiming special insight or certainty) the AG's office in concert with political operatives in the White House selectively fired US Attorneys who they deemed not loyal to the Bush administration.
This is an abuse of power; the President clearly has the right to fire his employees at will, but the targeting of prosecutors who investigated republicans or failed to investigate democrats is clearly an attempt to use the power of the Department of Justice for political, partisan purposes, or at least to influence and undermine the independence of the US Attorneys. One need only look at the Watergate scandal for the corollary -- Nixon had articles of impeachment drawn up in no small part for the Saturday Night Massacre, in which he summarily dismissed the special prosecutor who was investigating the Watergate scandal.
There are differences between the two situations. For one, there is (as yet) no indication that the President was involved in the 2006 prosecutor purge. And of course, the US Attorneys targeted were not investigating the White House. So there is a huge disparity in the degree of gravity between the two cases. It seems that culpability in this case rests with the office of the AG and possibly the White House Counsel/Rove.
All Americans -- right or left -- should be disturbed by this abuse of power. The Department of Justice should never be used as a political tool. There is evidence of exactly that occuring. For example, a study published in 2006 showed that in the four years between 2000-2004, DoJ investigations of local elected officials targeted Democrats eight times more often than republicans! That this is derived out of partisan purposes is inarguable. Nobody with a shred of intellectual honesty can argue that local Democrats are an order of magnitude more corrupt that republicans. (Indeed, at the national level, the opposite would seem to be the case.)
So, to the conservative trolls out there, if you wish to support this abuse of the power of the Department of Justice, pause a moment and imagine what it will be like should President Clinton or Obama decide that turnabout is fair play and fill the offices of the US Attorneys with partisan hacks under orders to investigate only republicans and give the free pass to Democrats.
Payback can be hell.

Just stop it, please

Payback can be hell indeed. Can you imagine Democratic USA's targetting only businesses that gave money to republican candidates for immigration raids? What about looking into the party that not only was in power for the last 12 years, but prohibited lobbyist from talking to the Dems? Right now, all of the corruption is on the Republicans because the Republicans made it that way. They took ALL of the power for themselves, and with it all of the bribes.ReplyDelete
The problem is obviously not the 8 they fired, but the others whose loyalty was to their party first and their country second. Why shouldn't Hillary do the same thing?
A history of AG firings by the LA Times. Mostly started with Reagan.ReplyDelete
What cracks me up is that the GOP is supposed to be the party of states' rights, personal liberties, and hands-off government. Oh, don't you dare take my guns; I might need them someday, like the Founding Fathers did, to defend myself against an unjust and abusive government. Don't you dare use my tax money for your stupid social programs. Don't you dare tell me how to think or feel about my fellow humans.ReplyDelete
Riiight. And meanwhile, they meddle in the affairs of citizens, telling them whom they can marry and how to make big decisions like if and when to have kids. And as for guns, an AK is of exactly no use at all against a political appointee with the power to ruin your life, from a desk in Washington.
But I guess it's okay to abuse the resources and power of the government against political opponents, so long as it's liberal moonbats who are the targets. "Aw, grow a pair," they say. "If you can't take it, don't play in the big leagues." Well, batter up, kids. We've reached the second half of this inning, and the right is going to need to play some defense for a change.
As you say, payback can be a bitch. I have a feeling there will be a whole lot more pissed-off liberals, and fewer of the meek, over-analytical ones, very soon. The moderates are already there. This stuff can't go unaccounted for.

if the conservatives really believe there is nothing wrong with what the bush justice department has done with their attorney purge, they need to ask themselves what they'd feel like if the roles were reversed. let's imagine hillary gets elected in '08 for instance. okay, if you can bring yourself back to consciousness, righties, imagine then that she decides ANY us attorney (who she has already appointed and pre-screened before hiring, remember) that does not aggressively push for incredibly stepped up gun crimes prosecutions gets canned immediately. to the point where it's universally accepted that it's dumb to even own a gun, because the slightest infraction is guaranteeing yourself prison time.ReplyDelete
i mean, granted, republicans will sociopathically defend the bush regime at all costs, but, come on, if things go the way they've been going, chances are your party is losing the white house in two years.
ask yourself, then, if you REALLY think all this stuff is tolerable and the president's right, when you imagine a democratic president doing the same thing in a few years.
yeah, it doesn't seem so noble anymore, does it?
imagine, just imagine, the high pitched whine that would emanate from the right wing. and that would be non-stop.
in fact, why stop at firing 9 us attorneys? let's do 20. in fact, 50 sounds like a nice round number.
let's be clear. you don't shill for the clinton white house at all costs? you don't make it damn clear from day one that you're gonna drag your feet and do everything you can to stall prosecutions/investigations of democrats, and to blindly go after republicans like an attack dog no matter how small-time and vague the evidence is against them?
you're ass is fucking GONE!! see you later bozo! don't let the door hit you on the way out.
and hey, you got any more complaints after that, republicans? you got any more bitching to do about the fact that you were given your walking papers because of politics? go cry to a republican, they'll set you straight on just how appropriate us canning your ass was. and they'll tell you the meaning of serving at the pleasure of the president, you big whining cry baby.
see ya!
Looks like a Hillary! circle jerk in here.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous3/23/2007 5:07 PM
Yes, we can all sleep much better when all these self righteous lefties have the power.ReplyDelete
self-righteous lefties, eh?ReplyDelete
last time i checked only one party had a leader who said his favorite philosopher was jesus (granted, probably because he couldn't think of another name), and also natters on and on about how jesus is guiding him in all the decisions he makes.
and that party wasn't of the left.

One of our greatest assets is our private forum; we strive to ensure the security of all of our members' information. Only members have access to your posts and all members are screened by the Administrators (Pixies) to ensure your safety and security.
Please take a few moments to look around our home page.

We look forward to seeing you around the boards!

Bob Schieffer, Leslie Moonves named to TV Hall of Fame
"Face the Nation" anchor Bob Schieffer and CBS Corporation President and CEO Leslie Moonves were selected Wednesday to be inducted into the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences Hall of Fame.
"Each of this year's Hall of Fame inductees is incredibly deserving of this honor and is truly a legend of our industry," Bruce Rosenblum, Chairman and CEO of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences said in a press release.
Last year marked Schieffer's 55th year as a reporter and 43rd year at CBS News, where he has been a principal anchor since 1973. He anchored the "CBS Evening News" from March 2005 to August 2006, "an 18-month period that saw a substantial increase in viewers," the academy said. Schieffer has served as a moderator of CBS News' Sunday public affairs broadcast "Face the Nation" since 1991.
Schieffer said Wednesday he was "truly honored" to be named to the Hall of Fame.
"I always wanted to be a reporter when I was a kid and I got to be one when I grew up," he told CBSNews.com. "Not many people are that lucky. I thank the academy for this recognition and CBS for the opportunities they have given me over the past 44 years. Chasing down the news is still more fun than anything job I can think of."
Moonves joined CBS as president of Entertainment in 1995 and took the network from last to first place in the ratings, launching series including "Everybody Loves Raymond," "Survivor," and "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation." Under his leadership, CBS has been #1 in viewers for nine of the past 10 years and currently features television's #1 drama, "NCIS"; #1 comedy, "The Big Bang Theory"; and the #1 news program, "60 Minutes."
Other honorees include actor/director/producer Ron Howard, sportscaster Al Michaels and writer/producer Dick Wolf. Philo T. Farnsworth, who is credited with inventing all-electronic television transmission, will be inducted posthumously, the academy said.
The 2013 inductees will be honored during a gala ceremony at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on March 11.

Healthy Green Juice Recipe
My friend Carole and her husband have been so keen on making juices, she often gives me suggestions on how to create new drinks with my powerful blender. Today's healthy juice is a blend of pure, freshly pressed apple juice, fresh cucumbers, baby kale, spinach leaves, lime juice, chia seeds and a lot of ice cubes.
The chia seeds add a beautiful consistency to the juice, which can otherwise seem a little flat. They are loaded with health benefits, so if you want to start the day on a wonderful note, take a few minutes to prepare this "superfood" drink and remember to consider adding more greens to your daily life.

Blueberry Kiwi Smoothie Recipe
I've tried shedding a few pounds since our return from Florence, Rome and Paris. Almost every year, the girls join me during the summer in my workout and diet routine. Mimi, Lulu's 14-year-old little sister, surprised me this morning and prepared the fruitiest, packed-with-energy smoothie. She didn't use any additional sweeteners, except for the natural sweetness from bananas, blueberries and golden kiwis.
Mimi used our powerful Vitamix blender. For a smoother flow, she also added almond milk. When I first met her, Mimi used to have awful allergies with almonds, but since her teenage years, she has overcome this specific allergy. Unfortunately, we've discovered new ones, especially during our trip to Florence. She's allergic to truffle mushrooms now; go figure!

Pomegranate Acai Milkshake Recipe
This pomegranate acai drink is one of the many I make for breakfast after my morning workouts. I'm no nutritionist, but this drink works for me. It's filled with "superfoods". During the winter we almost always have freshly pressed pomegranate juice (here's why) in the refrigerator. To this fruit juice, I blended in some bananas, pure acai juice and mung beans for extra protein.
It's delicious, plus it keeps me energetic and full until lunch time. Check out my other protein drinks; every day I blend a few ingredients, alternating between fresh fruits and vegetables, various kinds of milk and other sources of protein such as whey or soy protein.

Healthy Green Drink Recipe
A few weeks ago, fresh rambutans were on sale for only $0.69 a pound and we bought several pounds. I figured flight tickets to Vietnam are so expensive, it wouldn't be so bad to splurge on the tropical fruits instead of a trip to Asia!They're called chôm chôm in Vietnamese. After a few bags, my family eventually got sick of them, so I ended up making fruit purée and storing it in the freezer. I already had in mind a specific drink recipe I would make. I prepared a flavorful but healthy drink with a vibrant green color. In addition to the rambutans, I used spinach, kiwis, lemon and lime juice.
The result was delicious. I loved the acidic taste of the kiwis, lime and lemon that balanced so well with the sweetness from the rambutan purée.

Strawberry Kiwi Smoothie Recipe
I can't believe almost half of 2012 has already passed by and now we're already in June! After having my wonderful daughter, finishing my first cookbook (which by the way is already available for pre-order and will be released December 18th) and finally becoming an American citizen, my husband Lulu thought I deserved a little celebratory vacation to Yountville in the Napa Valley. Even though it's a short ride from our house, I made small energy drinks before hitting the road to enjoy during the drive.
The drink is a blend of strawberries, raspberries, kiwis, peanuts and vanilla extract. The fruit gives you an instant energy boost, and the protein in the peanuts will keep you going longer than your average smoothie. It's a delicious and healthy way to start the day!

BEIJING (Reuters) - China's notoriously smog-bound capital Beijing asked residents on Friday to set off fewer fireworks over this month's Chinese New Year period as it battles a persistent air quality crisis.
Air quality in Beijing has mostly stayed above "very unhealthy" and "hazardous" levels for about two weeks, though strong winds cleared the haze away on Friday.
Chinese New Year, which begins February 10, is marked by riotous fireworks displays traditionally thought to bring good luck for the year ahead, which turn cities into near war zones and blacken the skies with thick smoke for hours on end.
"To improve the air quality and create a favorable environment for you and your family members, please set off fewer fireworks or no fireworks, in order to reduce emissions of pollutants," the official Xinhua news agency cited an unnamed official with the Beijing Office of Fireworks and Firecrackers as saying.
The city's three main fireworks retailers have reduced to 750,000 the number of cartons of fireworks in stock for this year's festivities, down from 810,000 last year.
The number of shops approved to sell fireworks in has also been cut to 1,337 from 1,429, Xinhua added.
Pollution in Beijing regularly exceeds 500 on an index that measures particulate matter in the air with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers. Above 300 is considered hazardous, while the World Health Organisation recommends a daily level of no more than 20.
Last month pollution hit a record, 30-45 times above recommended safety levels, blanketing the city in a thick, noxious cloud that grounded flights and forced people indoors, and prompting emergency measures such as factory closures.

The Congress declares that the installation of a proper system of transportation to service the National Forest System, as is provided for in sections 532 to 538 of this title, shall be carried forward in time to meet anticipated needs on an economical and environmentally sound basis, and the method chosen for financing the construction and maintenance of the transportation system should be such as to enhance local, regional, and national benefits: Provided, That limitations on the level of obligations for construction of forest roads by timber purchasers shall be established in annual appropriation Acts.
Unless the necessity for a permanent road is set forth in the forest development road system plan, any road constructed on land of the National Forest System in connection with a timber contract or other permit or lease shall be designed with the goal of reestablishing vegetative cover on the roadway and areas where the vegetative cover has been disturbed by the construction of the road, within ten years after the termination of the contract, permit, or lease either through artificial or natural means. Such action shall be taken unless it is later determined that the road is needed for use as a part of the National Forest Transportation System.
Roads constructed on National Forest System lands shall be designed to standards appropriate for the intended uses, considering safety, cost of transportation, and impacts on land and resources.

"(2) The Chief of the Forest Service, Department of Agriculture, in his sole discretion, may offer any timber sales that were scheduled October 1, 1997, or thereafter, to be offered in fiscal year 1998 or fiscal year 1999 even if such sales would have been delayed or halted as a result of any moratorium (resulting from the Federal Register proposal of January 28, 1998, pages 4351–4354) on construction of roads in roadless areas within the National Forest System adopted as policy or by regulation that would otherwise be applicable to such sales.
"(3) Any sales offered pursuant to subsection (a)(2) shall—

Holiday Tips from an Air Hockey Game
This looks like fun, right? I like the idea of playing air hockey on an ordinary table. But it's so much more than that – it has so much to teach us!
It turns out that Air Hockey games think we're all idiots. Check this out:
Display all of your holiday cards by using ribbon, tape and wooden clothespins to hang them or decorate your stairwell.
Well we never would have figured that one out, would we? Brilliant! That is Yoda like wisdom!
Build a gingerbread house and use that as your holiday table centerpiece.
Oh, that is an amazing suggestion! Because there's nothing easier than building a gingerbread house, but see, we screw up when we just start devouring the damn thing the second we're finished constructing it!
Buy solid-colored wrapping paper and markers to decorate each present with a personalized holiday design.
What year do you think it is, Air Hockey game? 1991? Are we trying to make everything funky fresh or something? That is the lamest idea ever.
Anyway, I was going to buy this until I found their crappy advice on the back, so now I'll never know how well it works.

An unnamed operations manager at the defunct Peanut Corp. of America Plainview facility is listed as an unindicted co-conspirator in a 76-count criminal indictment unsealed Thursday morning against four top company executives.
The indictment says the operations manager from May 2007 to February 2009 directly reported to the Virginia-based company's owner and president, Stewart Parnell, who is one of four charged in the indictment. The Plainview plant closed in 2009. It had employed 30 workers.
The indictment stemmed from the release of salmonella-tainted peanut products into the market in 2009, and an extensive food recall effort involving products made with peanut paste produced at the company's plants in Plainview and Blakely, Ga..
And, the indictment alleges the Plainview plant's involvement in criminal activity included repackaging product made at the business' Blakely, Ga., processing plant and labeling it as made in Plainview, sending false certificates of analysis - the results of lab tests on batches of peanut product - to customers, and switching varieties of peanuts while filling orders without telling the customer.
The grand jury that handed down the indictments is in the Albany division of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Georgia.
The accusations
Charges include mail and wire fraud, conspiracy, and introducing adulterated and misbranded food into the market with intent to defraud or mislead.
The four indicted were: Parnell, his brother and company vice president Michael Parnell, Georgia plant manager Samuel Lightsey and Georgia plant quality assurance manager Mary Wilkerson.
The Centers for Disease Control estimated the human toll at nine dead and nearly 700 sickened by peanut-borne salmonella in 46 states.
Federal officials also said a fifth person connected with the conspiracy had pleaded guilty to mail and wire fraud charges, introducing adulterated or mislabeled food into the market with intent to defraud, and conspiracy.
FDA inspectors found remarkably bad conditions inside Parnell's processing plant in Blakely, including mold and roaches, and the company went bankrupt after the recall.
Not all the allegations in the indictment deal with sanitation and the possibility of tainted product being shipped to customers.
The indictment notes the company provided a statement to one of its customers that all of its peanuts processed were grown in the United States, unless customers asked for peanuts from another source. On occasion the company used peanut paste bought in bulk from a Mexican plant and sometimes substituted peanuts grown in Argentina and China, according to the indictment.
The defense speaks
The indictment accused the Parnells and Lightsey of conspiring to defraud customers and obtain money through false and fraudulent pretenses. Wilkerson was charged with obstruction of justice.
Parnell's attorneys said in a statement after the indictment was unsealed that they are disappointed the government has decided to pursue the case after four years and charged that the Food and Drug Administration knew about the company's salmonella testing and had not objected.
"At this point, we will evaluate the charges that have been filed against Mr. Parnell and will prepare for a vigorous defense," said attorneys Bill Gust and Tom Bondurant in a statement. "There is little doubt that as the facts in this case are revealed, it will become apparent that the FDA was in regular contact with (Peanut Corporation of America) about its food handling policy and was well aware of its salmonella testing protocols."
Jim Parkman, a lawyer for Lightsey, said nothing in the indictment surprises him, and he is eager to defend his client.
Events in Plainview
Operations in Plainview occupy only a few paragraphs in the 52-page indictment, and most of those statements refer to mislabeling products or falsifying records. Only one deals with sanitary issues at the plant.
� Sometime in August 2006, Stewart Parnell ordered the operations manager in Plainview to fill a customer's order for 44,000 pounds of organic Valencia peanuts, with 50 percent Valencia nuts and 50 percent Spanish peanuts.
� In early March 2007, acting on a recommendation from company vice president Michael Parnell, the Plainview facility repackaged 40 cases of peanut product from the company's Blakely plant with Plainview labels. In addition, the instructions called for altering the production date on the labels and creating a new certificate of analysis to back up the changed production date.
� In April 2007, a company official looking for product to help fill an order suggested that totes of peanut meal at Plainview be used. In an e-mail, the unnamed company official said employees would "need to air hose the top off because they are covered in dust and rat (feces)." According to the indictment, Stewart Parnell concurred in an e-mail that said "Clean em all up and ship them."
� Also in April 2007, another unindicted co-conspirator, identified in the indictment only as the company's national sales manager, suggested that the Plainview plant use medium Virginia peanuts to fill all outstanding orders for jumbo runner peanuts. The Plainview operations manager objected. The indictment does not say if the exchange was made.
� On two occasions in June 2007, the operations manager in Plainview, working with Stewart Parnell, created false certificates of analysis for customers using data from peanut lots that had been processed earlier.

Politically Uncorrected | Paterno election would shake up Pennsylvania politics
Normally, primary contests for lieutenant governor are quiet affairs, given little thought by voters and not much more by party leaders.
It's not that candidates don't lust after the nomination; six have filed petitions for the May 20 Democratic primary.
But the office itself comes with few official demands, little or no power and no independent political base. It does pay pretty well. The lieutenant governor receives almost $160,000 annually, and housing is first class.
Officially, the lieutenant governor presides over the state Senate, a task that takes an average of one day a week, and chairs the Pardons Board. Some lieutenant governors have been assigned the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency portfolio.
If the governor is temporarily incapacitated, the lieutenant governor may "act" as governor; if the governor dies or leaves office, the lieutenant governor assumes the office of governor.
But gubernatorial vacancies have been rare in modern history — only Lt. Gov. Mark Schweiker succeeded when Gov. Tom Ridge left in late 2001 to become Homeland Security Adviser to President George W. Bush.
More typically, it's a low-profile, watching-the-clock sort of job. Certainly it doesn't come with many of the traditional perks that ambitious politicians seek — a large staff, power and high visibility.
So, the wide appeal of the office is somewhat paradoxical.
One possible explanation is that it's like the lottery. Running for the office is something of a crap-shoot. Having a familiar name, the right geography or a powerful political endorsement is more important in winning than one's policies or experiences.
Then there's the aura of the office. A cliche it may be, but the lieutenant governor is but a "heartbeat" away from being governor — or, to quote John Adams describing the vice presidency, "In this I am nothing, but I may be everything."
Beyond this, the office has led to several future gubernatorial nominations. Although only two recent lieutenant governors have actually served as either acting governor or as governor, several former lieutenant governors have sought the top post.
Since the mid-1960s, five incumbent lieutenant governors have made serious runs for governor — in 1966, 1970, 1978, 1986 and 1994, and a sixth (Schweiker) certainly could have chosen to do so in 2002. Their respective political parties nominated four of the five who ran.
Future opportunities notwithstanding, most party primary candidates for lieutenant governor generate little notice or controversy. In truth, their policy positions matter not a whit after the election. The successful nominee soon adopts the positions of the gubernatorial nominee.
Nor do they have much influence on the outcome of the gubernatorial election. Occasionally it has mattered who a party nominated, but not much and not often.
This year may be different. One of the Democratic candidates brings with him the potential to drive much of the debate in the gubernatorial campaign.
That's because among the six Democrats running is Jay Paterno, a former Penn State football coach and son of legendary Penn State coach Joe Paterno.
Jay Paterno has never held a governmental office — appointive or elective. Nevertheless, if he wins, his presence on the ticket would inevitably keep the controversial Jerry Sandusky sexual abuse case before the public and be a factor in the campaign.
The impact of the Sandusky case on the 2014 gubernatorial election isn't yet clear. What is clear, however, is that it will be an issue that resonates with many voters.
The Paterno family lawsuit against the NCAA and Penn State, if it goes forward, will exacerbate the already raw emotions between supporters and opponents of the controversial NCAA sanctions.
Kathleen Kane raised related issues during her attorney general campaign in 2012, suggesting that then-Attorney General Tom Corbett improperly prolonged the case's investigation while he sought the governorship.
Most political observers think Kane's use of the issue aided her in piling up a huge electoral majority.
Adding to the electoral saliency of the case, sometime later this year Kane is expected to release the long-awaited report by a special deputy assigned to investigate Corbett's handling of the Sandusky prosecution.
Finally, the impending trial of three former top Penn State administrators is expected to keep the case front and center during the election year.
The fallout from the Sandusky scandal will be an inevitable backdrop to the 2014 gubernatorial election; with Paterno in the race it could be decisive.
There is a vital caveat to be noted: There is no certainty Paterno will win the Democratic nomination in a field of six. Some observers have described his performance as lackluster in early campaigning, and his nominating petitions are being challenged.
Nevertheless, if Paterno does win, it could turn state history on its head. Historically, the candidates for lieutenant governor in Pennsylvania have rarely mattered to the outcome of a gubernatorial election.
Election year 2014 could be a year that it does matter — a lot.

John Woo, the director of both Hollywood blockbusters (Mission Impossible II, Face/Off, etc) and Hong Kong action films (Hard Boiled, The Killer, etc), was honored at the Venice Film Festival the other day when the 64 year old Chinese film director was given a Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement. The festival also screened Woo's new martial arts tour de force, Reign of Assassins.
Reign of Assassins (see trailer below), which was filmed in China and is set during the Ming Dynasty, is unique in that it is the first time that Woo has had a woman as a protagonist and it is also the first time that a Chinese film has had a real female hero. Michelle Yeoh plays the martial arts expert who is an assassin falling in love with the son of a man killed by her gang.
At the Venice Film Festival on Friday, the clearly pleased Woo told the press, "I want to make movies that will incorporate the good things from the West and the East." Reign of Assassins is the 35th film that Woo has directed in an impressive career that began back in 1968.

METAIRIE, La. (AP) Pro Bowl tight end Jimmy Graham traces the beginnings of his NFL career back to the success Drew Brees had with Antonio Gates in San Diego more than a half-decade ago.
``Without him, I wouldn't have even been given this opportunity, or even been given the opportunity to play in college,'' said Graham, who played four years of basketball at Miami and one year of football. ``He paved the way for me. I know that.''
Gates played basketball at Kent State and had not played football since high school when the Chargers decided to give him a look at tight end in 2003.
``He was an experiment. I was like, `This guy will never make the team,''' Brees said while recalling Gates' arrival in San Diego. ``Midway through the season we had a bunch of injuries at tight end and he ends up starting, and the light bulb came on and you were just like, `Wow.'
``I see a lot of similarities between him and Jimmy in just how much basketball can help them in regards to the body control and body position and suddenness and going up and attacking the ball, just like you would in the paint in basketball.''
Gates is San Diego's career receptions leader with 603 and has been to eight straight Pro Bowls.
Graham, a surprise third-round pick in 2010, had his breakout season in 2011 with 99 catches for 1,310 yards and 11 TDs.
On Sunday night, they'll both be in the Superdome when the Saints (0-4), desperate for a victory, host the Chargers (3-1).
Gates said he knows little about Graham's basketball background, but is well aware of Graham's work on the gridiron.
``He's a phenomenal tight end,'' Gates said. ``He plays the ball in the air really well. He reminds me a lot like a young Tony Gonzalez, maybe more athletic, the way he uses his body - big target, they throw it to him, jump balls in the red zone, etc.''
Likewise, Chargers coach Norv Turner has been impressed with Graham's development, and views Sunday night's game as one featuring two of the best tight ends in the NFL.
``Obviously Drew was here at the beginning of Antonio's (tenure) when he got rolling, and I see them using (Graham) in a similar way,'' Turner said. ``Those guys with a basketball background know how to use their body and shield guys off their body to go up for balls, and then as they continue to grow and grow as route runners it just becomes crazy.''
Graham was gratified to learn that Gates knew little about his basketball background and more of him as a football player, but he also was not surprised, noting, ``I wasn't a really good basketball player anyway.''
``Most people would have called me the enforcer. I was the kind of guy who just went in the game and, you know, just got a lot of fouls, got stuff started, dunked on people, so for the most part, I guess he's right,'' Graham said.
``I was always trying to change the image and not to be called a basketball player anymore, so that's an honor that he says that he just knows me as Jimmy Graham the tight end. That's pretty cool.''
When asked about the success both he and Gates had making the transition from basketball to football with Brees as their pro quarterback, Graham was not about to dismiss it as mere coincidence.
Graham said that from the moment he arrived at Saints headquarters, Brees would talk to him about the success he had in San Diego with Gates.
``He said, `Listen, I remember where Gates was when he first got into the league and I was there for his first start. And I'm going to work with you every day. I'm going to work with you as much as I can so that we can try to get that connection because I think you're going to be a special player. You're a special athlete and I believe in you,''' Graham recalled.
``So that was my first day of work. I remember he always used to just compare certain things to Gates and how I should do things - you know, `Gatesy did this and Gatesy did that.' I heard that like every other day.''
When Philip Rivers took over for Brees as San Diego's starter in 2006, he, too, quickly came to rely on Gates, and said he's not surprised the Saints looked to help Brees develop a similar target in New Orleans.
``You really see how the basketball benefits them ... in this game at that position from a route-running standpoint, body position and I know I've certainly thrown Gates a lot of high balls he's gone up and gotten,'' Rivers said. ``I've seen Drew do the same to Graham. I've seen him go up and get a bunch of balls and obviously his body position and ability to go up and do that gives us confidence to throw those types of balls that otherwise you might not throw.''
Notes: Five Saints players sat out Thursday's practice: WR Lance Moore (right hamstring), DT Brodrick Bunkley (illness), DE Turk McBride (left ankle), LB David Hawthorne (right hamstring) and RB Travaris Cadet (right shoulder). S Roman Harper (right hip) and LB Jonathan Casillas (neck) were limited.

Professionals in the EU can move across borders and practice their occupation or provide services abroad. These webpages provide practical information on EU legislation governing the recognition of professional experience in the EU.
The system of recognition of professional qualifications in the EU is governed by Directive 2005/36/EC, recently amended by Directive 2013/55/EC. The directive provides a modern EU system of recognition of professional experience and promotes automatic recognition of professional experience across the EU.
In practice, the recognition of professional qualifications laid down in Directive 2005/36/EC enables the free movement of professionals such as doctors or architects within the EU. Other professions, such as lawyers or sailors, fall under the scope of different legislation.
The recognition of professional experience in practice
In January 2016, the Commission introduced a new, EU-wide digital procedure for the recognition of professional qualifications – the European Professional Card (EPC). The procedure, currently available for general care nurses, physiotherapists, pharmacists, real estate agents and mountain guides, makes it easier for Europeans to work where their professional skills are needed. The EPC contributes to the objective of making the Single Market a reality in practice.
To clarify the status of regulated professions in the EU, the European Commission conducted a transparency and a mutual evaluation exercise.
Transparency and mutual evaluation
The database of regulated professions contains information on regulated professions, statistics on migrating professionals, contact points and national authorities in EU countries, EEA countries and Switzerland.
The Commission contracted an independent study to provide more insight into the relationship between professional regulation and service quality. In 6 case studies researchers traced impact of regulatory variations on a wide range of quality indicators. The studies contribute to the development of empirical research methods and strategies to analyse this complex relationship.
Study: Effects of regulation on service quality
The Commission contracted several independent economic case studies, conducted at country level, to analyse the effects of reforms of regulatory requirements to access professions. The results of these studies demonstrate that, for the cases analysed, less restrictive regulation can have a positive impact on the labour market.
Six case studies on the economic effects of reforms of regulated professions
An independent study to assess the prevalence and labour market impacts of occupational regulation in the EU was conducted using the 2015 European Survey on Regulated Occupations. The aim was to reinforce the evidence base on the economic costs and benefits of occupational regulation.
Study: Measuring prevalence and labour market impacts of occupational regulation in the EU
Assistance centres - these provide information on the recognition of professional qualifications in every EU country and guide professionals through the administrative formalities.

Pressure testing are common procedure used to check fluid test pumps equipments vessel, such as, cylinders, boiler, tubes pipe, valves, castings, components etc.. Pressure testing is also a common testing procedure to verify test pumps equipments vessels do not leak or have manufacturing flaws. Hydrostatic pressure test pumps & unit is important for test pumps equipments vessels in the interest of device safety, and durability under operating test pumps equipments.
The test pumps equipments vessel to be tested is located within a sealed vessel. The sealed vessel is filled with a incompressible fluid, typically water or oil. The pressure testing vessel is then subjected to a known internal test pumps equipments for a known duration. The known internal test pumps equipments is normally a significant percent greater than the maximum operating test pumps equipments of the device (typically 150%). The applied test pumps equipments causes the test vessel to expand, instrumentation, which is already in place, are then read to determine the total and permanent expansion that the test chamber (external) undergoes. A physical and visual inspection then follows the pressure testing to determine that the device being tested has not been damaged or permanently distorted due to the test test pumps equipments.
test pumps equipments vessels may be re-verified by subjecting the vessel device to a proof-test pumps equipments test. The proof-test pumps equipments test is commonly referred to as a "modified hydrostatic test". The test pumps equipments vessel is subjected to a known test pumps equipments for a predetermined time. During and following the proof-test pumps equipments test, the test pumps equipments vessel is inspected for abnormal distortion or failure.
test pumps equipmentsJet also offers pressure testing with pre-filling cum pre-pressurizing cum test pumps equipments building system. For large volume of pressure testing combine hydrostatic test pumps equipments testing unit is most preferred solution. This pressure testing is compact, efficient & cost effective, available in different combinations of test pumps equipments and flow. The unique automatic Hydrostatic test pumps equipments controller is a standard feature of this system.Otherwise also for large quantity, automatic Pressure test pumps controller is very useful to improve productivity thru even a kay man.
Though theoretically water is considered as non compressible fluid, it requires considerable amount of feeding to raise the test pumps equipments.
"How much water is to be injected to raise certain test pumps equipments?" and "What time will it take to reach up to desire test pumps equipments?" are typical questions, asked by majority customers who are inquiring about hydrostatic hydro test pumps. It depends upon the following
Customer should furnish the above information and leave it to us for the right selection of test pumps..
