On Friday, 21 December 2012, Mathieu Ngudjolo Chui will be freed following his acquittal by Trial Chamber II of the International Criminal Court (ICC). The Prosecutor has however appealed the verdict.
Mathieu Ngudjolo Chui will remain temporarily in The Netherlands until the travel ban imposed by the United Nations is lifted to allow him to return to the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
The release of Mr Ngudjolo Chui is being made taking into account his opinion, according to ICC legal texts. Mathieu Ngudjolo Chui has expressed interest in returning to the DRC if the security situation allows.
During ICC proceedings, Mr Ngudjolo Chui was detained at the ICC Detention Centre located within a Dutch prison complex in Scheveningen - on the outskirts of The Hague ( Netherlands ).
Background: The trial against Mathieu Ngudjolo Chui started on 24 November 2009. On 18 December 2012, Trial Chamber II acquitted Mathieu Ngudjolo Chui of three counts of crimes against humanity and seven counts of war crimes allegedly committed during an attack against the Bogoro village (DRC) on 24 February 2003. Judges found that the Prosecution had not proved beyond reasonable doubt that Mathieu Ngudjolo Chui was responsible for the crimes committed during the attack. The Office of the Prosecutor has appealed the verdict. The Chamber also ordered the immediate release of Mathieu Ngudjolo Chui following his acquittal. On 20 December 2012, the Appeals Chamber rejected the Office of the Prosecutor's request to keep Mathieu Ngudjolo Chui in custody until the Chamber decides on its appeal of the immediate release decision.

9/11 Victims, National Security Whistleblowers, Go to Court to Support Sibel Edmonds; Demand Government Stop Silencing Employees Who Expose Security Risks
WASHINGTON, D.C. (January 21, 2005) – An unprecedented group of national security whistleblowers and family members of 9/11 victims' families will gather Wednesday, January 26th to demand that the government halt its detrimental practice of silencing employees who expose national security blunders.
The event comes as several 9/11 family member advocacy groups and public interest organizations file a friend-of-the-court brief in support of Sibel Edmonds' case against the government.
Edmonds, a former Middle Eastern language specialist hired by the FBI shortly after 9/11, was fired in 2002 after repeatedly reporting serious security breaches and misconduct in the agency's translation program. She challenged her retaliatory dismissal by filing suit in federal court. Last July, the district court dismissed her case when Attorney General John Ashcroft invoked the so-called state secrets privilege. The ACLU is representing Edmonds in the appeal.
The event will be held at 12 p.m. at the National Press Club. Speakers will include Edmonds, ACLU Associate Legal Director Ann Beeson, FBI whistleblower Mike German, 9/11 family member Bill Doyle and others. Many high level national security whistleblowers and 9/11 family members will be at the event and available for interviews.
The event comes on the heels of last week's release of an unclassified summary of the Justice Department's Inspector General report investigating Edmonds' termination. The report concluded that Edmonds was fired for reporting serious security breaches and misconduct… Continue reading
Right now there is no transcript, just the mp3 audio file here, but here are a few quotes from the interview transcribed by the intrepid 911blogger and Alex's webmaster:
Jones: Sir you have questions about the official story don't you?
Doyle: Oh, without question… the 9/11 Commission – that's all a fallacy… The 9/11 commission is probably the worst representation of the 9/11 families, or for that matter the American public, because it is a sham, it really is. We had tons of questions that we asked them to ask, they wouldn't do it, and the continuing coverup is just beyond belief.
Doyle: It almost looks like there was a conspiracy about 9/11 if you really look at all the facts, a lot of the families now… Continue reading
– "Politics 911″ Seeks Candidates Responsive to 70+ Million Voters Demanding New 9/11 Investigation
Nation's largest 9/11 truth network marks second anniversary of the 9/11 Commission Report with campaign to survey all mainstream and third party congressional candidates re their awareness of the case for US government complicity in 9/11 and the high levels of public support for a full reinvestigation, as well as their personal willingness to back such an inquiry if they are elected in the fall.
Kansas City, MO (PRWEB) July 22, 2006 — In recognition of the second anniversary and widening distrust of the 9/11 Commission Report, 911truth.org announces the launch of "Politics 911," a national campaign to determine support for a new and truly independent 9/11 investigation among all 2006 candidates for the US House and Senate.
The three-month effort aims to poll all congressional hopefuls regarding their awareness of current evidence for US government involvement in 9/11 and the high levels of public support for a full reinvestigation, as well as their personal willingness to back such an inquiry if they are elected in the fall. Zogby polls in August, 2004 and May, 2006 showed that 66% of New York City residents and 45% of Americans overall now desire a new and broader investigation that explores all the evidence for government complicity.…Continue reading
Outraged truth community demands answers from Guy Smith, immediate retractions and apologies urged, savage agenda driven yellow journalism an insult to the truth

UPDATE: Audio – Paul Joseph Watson & Dylan Avery Debate Guy Smith on the 9/11 BBC Hit Piece
The BBC's Conspiracy Files documentary about 9/11 was a tissue of lies, bias and emotional manipulation from beginning to end. Producer Guy Smith should be ashamed of himself for inflicting this travesty of yellow journalism upon the 9/11 truth movement and he is assured to encounter a vociferous and outraged response in its aftermath.
You can watch the one hour show via Google Video.
Separated into two categories below are a number of questions intended to highlight Guy Smith's production for what it was – a deliberate hit piece on the 9/11 truth movement structured around fallacy, lying by omission and overwhelming bias.…Continue reading
9/11 Family Members File Petition with NIST
Posted 4/11/07 at GeorgeWashingtonBlogspot.com
Bill Doyle and Bob McIlvaine today filed a petition with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) seeking correction of inaccurate factual statements and analysis in NIST's reports on the destruction of the Twin Towers.
Mr. Doyle is the representative of the largest group of 9/11 families, the Coalition of 9/11 Families*, and lost his own son Joey in the collapse of the twin towers.
Mr. McIlvaine, an outspoken 9/11 truth activist, lost his son Bobby when the World Trade Centers were destroyed.
Another prominent 9/11 family member supports the petition, but decided for personal reasons not to sign.
Also signing the petition are:
The petition can be read here . It is very strong and solid, and well worth a read.
If you are not sure why the 9/11 families needed to file a petition, I invite you to read this 9/11 Fact Sheet .
The family members' petition was mainly drafted by attorney James… Continue reading
Gaps and inconsistencies reveal fundamental flaws in NIST's building collapse analyses
Berkeley, CA (PRWEB) April 14, 2007 — A group of scientists, researchers and 9/11 family members challenging the official reports of the destruction of the World Trade Center Towers on 9/11/01 has filed a Request for Correction (RFC) with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
The Request asserts that the NIST Final Report violates information quality standards, draws inferences that are inconsistent with its own computer simulations and physical tests, and exhibits a significant bias toward a preordained conclusion while ignoring available evidence contrary to it. The Request also says that if this bias is corrected, the NIST simulation clearly indicates that the Towers should not have collapsed due to plane damage and fire. The obvious alternative, which the group says should have been studied by NIST, is explosive demolition.
The group submitting the Request includes 9/11 family members Bob McIlvaine and Bill Doyle, physicist Steven E. Jones, former UL manager, Kevin Ryan, architect Richard Gage, AIA, and the group Scholars for 9/11 Truth and Justice.
A key theme of the Request is a call for NIST to reveal more of the data behind the Report's statements. Steven Jones, a physicist in Utah, says of the Report, "Among other things, we've found that the Report violates information quality standards by leaving out necessary information which would allow its conclusions to be verified."
But what's worse, Jones says, "when you read the Report, you find some data that… Continue reading
Fellow 9/11 truth workers, at long last there is a campaign afoot that has the potential of harnessing the energy, knowledge and zeal for justice of the entire 9/11 Truth Movement, and that is the New York City 911 Ballot Initiative Campaign. What is the 9/11 Ballot Initiative Campaign? Simply stated, it is a citizen-based effort to allow the people of New York City the opportunity to vote for "a New York City Independent Commission with Subpoena Power to Conduct a Comprehensive and Fact-Driven Investigation of All Relevant Aspects of the Tragic Events of September 11, 2001 and Issue a Report."
Some of the folks spearheading this historic endeavor include commissioners William Pepper and Lorie Van Auken, spokespeople Christine Ebersole, Bill Doyle, Bob McIlvaine and Donna Marsh O'Connor, and the hard working activists of NY911truth.org. Other commissioners include Mike Gravel and Lincoln Chafee, Ed Asner, Bishop Thomas Gumbleton and Ralph Schoenman. The campaign has been endorsed by Dr. David Ray Griffin, William Rodriquez and Karen Kwiatkowski, among others, and has received enthusiastic support from Kyle Hence, Sander Hicks, Peter Lance and various stalwarts of the 9/11 Truth Movement throughout the country. Now, we need you to get involved!
As you know, a genuine, evidence driven investigation of the crimes of 9/11 has never taken place. Now, we have an unprecedented opportunity to make it happen. In order to place the… Continue reading
The Journal of Engineering Mechanics has recently published a paper I authored. It can be found here, beginning on page 915: ( PDF 224kb )
Normally, such a publication would be announced here at 911Blogger to let everyone know we are still making progress publishing criticisms of the official fairy tale in mainstream technical journals, in the hopes of reaching more members of the scientific and engineering community.
While I am excited this paper will be reaching new audiences, and I would like to share that fact with you, I am writing today for a different purpose.
Not much is ever written about what we go through to get these papers published. The publication of this paper is a case study in the struggles we face. I'd like to relate to you exactly what I had to go through to get this paper published, and what influences the substance of it have already had. I hesitate to reveal some of the information below, but as will become clear, the Journal of Engineering Mechanics personnel have demonstrated a complete lack of scientific ethics, and I feel like I have no choice but to publish exactly what occurred in the lead up to my paper's publication.
Before I begin, let me make it perfectly clear that I do not want anyone to call, email or otherwise harass the editors or staff at the Journal of Engineering Mechanics or the authors of the papers I talk about below. Such behavior is extremely counterproductive,… Continue reading

Dear Friends around the World,
To place a public referendum for an impartial, independent and subpoena powered investigation of 9/11 on the New York City Ballot for the November General Election.
The 9/11 Commission was set up in 2002 to "provide the fullest possible account of the events surrounding 9/11". What we got instead, in the words of Commission Chairs Governor Thomas Kean and Representative Lee Hamilton, was a Commission "Set up to fail". A joint statement from both sides of the aisle is a rarity. This one speaks volumes.
Today, over 66% of New York City residents support a new 9/11 investigation. Millions now know that critical questions were left unaddressed. Only an objective, independent, subpoena powered investigation can ask the right people the relevant questions the 9/11 Commission certainly did not. Only an impartial investigation, free from intervention and powered by subpoena, can deliver the answers that every American deserves.
Thanks to your hard work and dedication in keeping 9/11 front and center all along, the NYC 9/11 Ballot Initiative has succeeded in collecting over 30,000 signatures, leading us to the final phase of our mission; to place a referendum for an independent subpoena powered 9/11 investigation on the NYC Ballot for the November General Election.
Those 30,000 signatures are needed to present the petition to the New York City Council for its approval. Our goal, however, is 75,000 signatures by the end of June, making it a virtual certainty that the referendum will be on the ballot, placing the decision to approve the pursuit of evidence and fact wherever it may lead exactly where it belongs – in the hands of New York City voters.…Continue reading
Intellectual Dishonesty In The Age Of Universal Deceit:
a message to the corporate media and our elected officials.
By Daniel Sunjata – May 4, 2009
"The inert masses are mentally and spiritually ill equipped to deal with reality, so they block it out of their minds – aided of course, by the corporate media and the propaganda apparatus of the government itself. This is why fantasy is frequently substituted for reality, plutocracy is mistaken for democracy, and the majority of the people do not know the difference. Millions of good people thus refuse to allow into their psyche the suffering and misery that U.S. policies have produced and exported to the world, even as that reality is closing in upon them." – Charles Sullivan
"They could be made to accept the most flagrant violations of reality…and were not sufficiently interested in public events to notice what was happening." – George Orwell, 1984
"Article XXXIV OBSTRUCTION OF INVESTIGATION INTO THE ATTACKS OF SEPTEMBER 11, 2001" – From the 35 articles of impeachment introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on 06/09/08 in H.Res. 1258 by Congressman Dennis Kucinich
The list is not a short one. It includes professors, architects, aerospace and aviation professionals, structural/mechanical/& aeronautical engineers, demolition experts, firefighters and other first responders, scientists, theologians, senior members of both the military and intelligence communities, Republican administration appointees, state department veterans, and other government officials from the United States and abroad; credible experts of impeccable pedigree with impressive track records from… Continue reading

Statement On Behalf of the 9/11 Families United to Bankrupt Terrorism
In Response to the Solicitor General's Refusal to Support The 9/11 Families'
Petition for Writ of Certiorari with the Supreme Court
(In Re: Thomas E. Burnett, Sr., et al. v. Al Baraka Investment & Development
Corp., et al., Case No. 03-CV-9849 (RCC) In Re: Terrorist Attacks on September
WASHINGTON, May 29 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — The following is a statement
of 9/11 Family Members: Mike Low, Father of Sara Elizabeth Low, AA Flight 11;
Bill Doyle, Father of Joseph M. Doyle, WTC North Tower; Tom & Beverly Burnett,
Sr., Parents of Thomas E. Burnett, Jr., UA Flight 93; and Terry Strada, Wife
of Thomas Strada, WTC North Tower on Behalf of the 9/11 Families United to Bankrupt
Terrorism in Response to the Solicitor General's Refusal to Support The 9/11
Families' Petition for Writ of Certiorari with the Supreme Court:
Today the Obama Administration filed in the Supreme Court a document that expressed
the Administration's decision to stand with a group of Saudi princes and against
the right of American citizens — 9/11 family members — to have our day in
court. Let there be no doubt: The filing was political in nature and stands
as a betrayal of everyone who lost a loved one or was injured on September 11,
We are deeply dismayed by this decision, filed by the solicitor general of
the United States in response to the Supreme Court's February 23, 2009 invitation
for the government to express its views in the 9/11 families' request to appeal
a portion of the case to the Court.…

9/11 Families, First Responders and Survivors Gather at City Hall to
Endorse 2009 Ballot Referendum to Establish New Official 9/11 Investigation
in NYC, Call on New Yorkers for Support
New York – Outside City Hall today relatives of 9/11 victims, first responders
and survivors of the September 11th attacks gathered to endorse a November ballot
initiative to establish a new 9/11 investigation under the auspices of the city
government of New York. Support on the street is high, the group says, and polls
indicate a majority of New Yorkers wants a new investigation.
On June 24, the group leading the ballot initiative, the New York City Coalition
for Accountability Now (NYC CAN) filed a petition containing 52,000 signatures
with the office of the City Clerk. The official filing initiated a 60-day period
specified in Section 37 of the New York Municipal Home Rule Law in which the
City Council is asked to review the petition and approve its placement on the
upcoming November ballot.
Since this milestone filing, the group has gathered an additional 15,000 signatures
and received several endorsements from prominent leaders. Renowned whistleblower
and former FBI agent Coleen Rowley, who TIME magazine selected as one of three
"Persons of the Year" in 2002, endorsed a new investigation yesterday,
as reported by RAWSTORY (http://rawstory.com/blog/2009/07/ex-fbi-agent-why-i-support-a-new-911-investigation/).

community of relatives of the… Continue reading

For eight years I have lobbied and supported investigations and litigation in an effort to learn the whole truth behind the death of my son Joseph and the murder of so many others. I've always been hopeful we'd get the answers we deserve and that we'd see accountability exacted within the halls of Congress, the White House, DoD, CIA, FBI, State and Justice Departments.
However, there are still too few answers to too many questions even as promotions and medals are handed out rather than pink slips or prosecutions. Excessive secrecy and redactions still cover-up the truth and leave us in the dark about: terrorist financing from still unnamed foreign nations, suspicious pre-9/11 stock market activity, pre-9/11 warnings to the President, the Attorney General and others, the infamous 28 pages of the Joint Inquiry Report, The Holy Land Trial, Riggs Bank wire transfers, faulty NYFD radios that didn't work in '93, Ground zero toxins breathed by thousands, a 9/11 narrative derived from torture induced testimony, etc., etc. I could go on and on.
No American who believes in his country should settle for being in the dark about all this over seven years after the event. I won't and I can't for the sake of my son and for the country. For this reason I feel compelled to support a new investigation in NYC led by family members and others who will produce an accounting we can be proud of.

The Turning Point
by Ted Walter
October 16, 2009
NYC Coalition for Accountability Now
In the fall of 2008, the NYC 9/11 Ballot Initiative realized that both strategy and tone were moving its effort no closer to broadening its support. Facing a wary, apathetic public and a stalled momentum, leadership was replaced, strategy was revamped and its mission rebranded.
Launched in early 2009 as NYC CAN, the new organization proceeded to effectively engage voters in a rational dialogue concerning the unanswered questions surrounding 9/11 and the best interests of our country. Our vehicle for engagement was a public referendum to create a real, independent, evidence-driven investigation into those questions that remain, eight years later, unaddressed.
That revamped strategy — focused and methodical, free of divisive rhetoric, ill-advised conjecture and alienating political judgments — succeeded in garnering the support of 80,000 NYC voters, over one-hundred 9/11 family members, dozens of first responders and survivors and leading 9/11 family advocates including 'Jersey Girls' Lorie Van Auken, Mindy Kleinberg and Patty Casazza as well as Bill Doyle, Monica Gabrielle and others.
NYC CAN also received backing from the most trusted leaders in the 9/11 truth movement, including David Ray Griffin, Richard Gage, Kevin Ryan, Steven Jones and Niels Harrit; and the endorsement of respected whistleblowers Lieutenant Colonel Anthony Shaffer and FBI Special Agent Coleen Rowley, TIME's 2002 Person of the Year.

WASHINGTON — For more than a decade, questions have lingered about the possible role of the Saudi government in the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, even as the royal kingdom has made itself a crucial counterterrorism partner in the eyes of American diplomats.
Now, in sworn statements that seem likely to reignite the debate, two former senators who were privy to top secret information on the Saudis' activities say they believe that the Saudi government might have played a direct role in the terrorist attacks.
"I am convinced that there was a direct line between at least some of the terrorists who carried out the September 11th attacks and the government of Saudi Arabia," former Senator Bob Graham, Democrat of Florida, said in an affidavit filed as part of a lawsuit brought against the Saudi government and dozens of institutions in the country by families of Sept. 11 victims and others. Mr. Graham led a joint 2002 Congressional inquiry into the attacks.
His former Senate colleague, Bob Kerrey of Nebraska, a Democrat who served on the separate 9/11 Commission, said in a sworn affidavit of his own in the case that "significant questions remain unanswered" about the role of Saudi institutions. "Evidence relating to the plausible involvement of possible Saudi government agents in the September 11th attacks has never been fully pursued," Mr. Kerrey said.
Their affidavits, which were filed on Friday and have not previously been disclosed, are part of a multibillion-dollar lawsuit… Continue reading

Earlier this year Uruguayan President José Mujica made international headlines when he announced that he wanted to legalize marijuana in his country. This week he took a big step towards making that goal a reality. A bill which would legalize marijuana was officially submitted to the national legislature. From CNN:
With the intent of undermining the market for illegal drugs, Uruguay's government presented a bill to lawmakers that would legalize marijuana under a government monopoly.
The government of President Jose Mujica has argued that the war on drugs has failed, and that separating the market for marijuana from the market for harder drugs will have social and health benefits.
The bill was presented to congress on Wednesday, and includes no details of how legalization would be cultivated, regulated or sold. But it makes it clear that the government would be the sole manager of the "importation, production, acquisition … commercialization and distribution of marijuana or its derivatives."
Based on the details known so far, the President's administration's plan is to highly regulate the legal use of marijuana and have the government maintain a monopoly over its commercial sale. Government monopolies on "vices" is not a new idea. In several counties and regions in the United States, local governments still have monopolies on the sale of alcoholic beverages. This model of regulating liquor was popular in counties and regions that had tried and given up on alcohol prohibition but still wanted liquor to be heavily controlled.
If Uruguay does legalize marijuana it could have huge political implications for the region. Many Latin American leaders have openly questioned the wisdom of the war on drugs, so if Uruguay's legalization plan succeeds it could easily serve as a model for neighboring countries. Before that happens though, the bill first most win approval in Uruguay's legislature, which could be a long and contentious fight.

Affordable acacia wood tiles—laid on top of the existing concrete—create a dramatic cabana effect in this outdoor space. A rectangular table and painted chairs also provide plenty of seating. "The bubble chandelier is one of my favourite pieces," says homeowner Sabrina Linn. "It was under $50. I see it more like a piece of art since it's so sculptural even when it's not on."

"You're like 22 girls in one / And none of them know what they're running from / Was it just too far to fall for a little paper doll?"
I think we can all pretty much agree that John Mayer
probably most likely definitely wrote his new song "Paper Doll" with ex Taylor Swift in mind. In a typical douchebaggery move, JM whined to Rolling Stone in 2012 about how T.Swizzle's song "Dear John" was cheap songwriting: "It's abusing your talent to rub your hands together and go, 'Wait til he gets a load of this!' It really humiliated me at a time when I'd already been dressed down." So the fact that he probably most likely definitely wrote this song about his ex as revenge is L.A.M.E.
But after he was asked if the song is in fact about Tay, John replied, "Yeah, songwriters write songs because of people, about people," he finally said. "Anything someone else wrote is their reception of a song. I don't get involved with it. It's none of my business."
Umm, I still don't really know what he's saying here, but I'm going to go with the fact that it's
probably most likely definitely a confirmation that he wrote it about T.Swift. Don't you agree?
*Also, that picture of him is from his appearance on the Today Show. Can we talk about what he's wearing? WTF? I can't even…. Katy Perry, seriously, what are you thinking?

ELIZABETHTON — Deputy Nick Andes of the Carter County Sheriff's Department was attempting to serve an outstanding warrant at a Watauga residence Wednesday morning when he discovered numerous items of drug paraphernalia. An extensive clandestine meth lab was then discovered in the house.
Four people found in the house that morning were arrested. They included a resident of the house, Christopher Daniel Hagy, 27, 211 9th St. Extension, Watauga. Two others charged were Steven Lee Hamm III, 31, 187 Hamm Hollow Road, and Shelby Ann Effrick, 119 Rocky Top Road, No. 6, Watauga. The three were charged with initiation of the process intended to result in the manufacture of methamphetamine, possession of a schedule II drug and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Hagy, the only resident found at home at the time of the arrest, was also charged with maintaining a dwelling where narcotics were manufactured and served with the outstanding warrant charging him with failure to appear.
Each of the three were also charged with promotion of methamphetamine manufacturing. Hagy had 12 counts, Hamm had nine counts and Effrick had three counts.
The fourth person arrested was Patrick Barr III, 30, 1290 Bluefield Ave., Apt. E-6. He was charged with possession of a schedule IV drug.
Andes said he came to the residence to serve the warrant on Hagy. He was met by Barr. Andes said Barr claimed he was the only person at the home. Andes said he was going inside to search for Hagy.
Andes said he found Effrick under a blanket in the first room he came to. On a table beside her, Andes said he found razor blades, a white powdery substance and several cut straws with powder on them. He then observed a pistol on the wood stove in the same room. He secured and unloaded it.
Andes said he then went into another room and found Hagy lying on a small couch in close proximity to vials, knives, razor blades, cut straws, pills and other items commonly used as drug paraphernalia.
Hamm was found in bed asleep. When officers awoke him he was found in close proximity to a metal can that had a plastic bag inside. Andes said Hamm told him it was "meth."
Andes also said he recognized components of a clandestine meth lab in the house and notified the department's drug unit. He said they confirmed there was an extensive meth lab in the house.
The Tennessee Methamphetamine Task Force was called and disposed of the items. The four residents of the house were decontaminated and the house was quarantined.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- This week is Earthquake Awareness Week in South Carolina.
The state Emergency Management Division has several events planned to remind residents that earthquakes are as much of a hazard as hurricanes, floods and tornadoes in South Carolina. It also will share pictures and tips on Pinterest, Twitter and Facebook.
The key event of the week is the Great Southeast ShakeOut earthquake drill Thursday. At 10:18 a.m., emergency officials will send out information about an earthquake on weather radio and other means, and they encourage people to practice what they would do if the ground started shaking.
Officials say South Carolina has about a dozen small earthquakes a year. But back in August 1886, Charleston suffered one of the most devastating earthquakes in U.S. history, which measured magnitude 7.3.

Starkville Water Department workers are actively flushing the city's water lines to clear out brown, discolored water caused by a mineral buildup.
The discoloration has been reported by citizens as being lightly golden to, as Ward 7 Alderman Henry Vaughn said, "much darker than tea."
Starkville Public Services Director Doug Devlin said although the water is discolored, it is still safe to drink.
At the end of 2009, the department raised the chlorine level of the city's water system in order to comply with the Environmental Protection Agency's 2006 Safe Drinking Water Act. Increased chlorine levels cause further oxidation of existing iron deposits on the interior walls of iron pipes in the city's water system, and further oxidation can cause portions of these deposits to break loose when changes occur in the flow of water. These deposits turn water brown.
Residents who are experiencing this condition should run their cold water tap until the water clears. If it doesn't clear and remains discolored for an extended amount of time, residents can call the Starkville Water and Sewer Maintenance Office at (662) 325-3505 and personnel will flush hydrants in their area.
"What we're doing now is unidirectional flushing. It's really just a reactionary measure done as people call in," he said. "We start at the water plants and then start flushing hydrants to the outer boundaries of the distribution system. What we're doing now is not making the problem go away permanently, it's just temporarily solving it as we can."
During Tuesday's board of aldermen meeting, Devlin said he will approach the board and ask for extra manpower and equipment to systematically flush the city's water pipes.
Devlin said he could not put a timetable on how long the city's water could be discolored, but pending board approval, it may take up to a month to hire an extra foreman and receive equipment to step up flushing attempts.
Lynn Spruill, city chief administrative officer, said City Hall has not received an overwhelming number of complaints, but the ones it has received have been from throughout the city. Even City Hall itself has experienced the discolored water, she said.
"Everyone is very understanding when we explain what the issue is," she said.
Numerous city officials, including Mayor Parker Wiseman and Ward 4 Alderman Richard Corey, said they have experienced the discolored water personally since the government-instituted change in chlorine levels.
"We will have items on the Tuesday (board of aldermen) agenda relating to mitigating the colored water," Wiseman said.
Corey said he will ask city and water officials if a notice can be provided in the future to warn residents of potential water discoloration. The notices, he said, would be modeled after boil water notices. He said he got the idea after a constituent asked him if similar measures could be taken. The constituent emailed him and mentioned he had a load of laundry ruined by the discoloration.
Ward 5 Alderman Jeremiah Dumas said he's received approximately half of a dozen reports from residents of his ward about the discolored water.
"I don't know if we really expected the discoloration," he said, "but we expected the chemical increase because increase because of the mandate."
An advanced warning, Dumas said, could be a feasible way to alert the community to potential water changes which could change water color.
Ward 6 Aldermen Roy A. Perkins said he has forwarded complaints he has received to the proper city officials.
"If there's anything we can do on our end to alleviate the situation, we have a staff that is competent, able and capable to perform the necessary and proper work," he said.

Students from the University of Texas School of Law won both first and second place at the 18th Annual Conrad B. Duberstein National Bankruptcy Moot Court Competition on March 15, 2010. Law School students Patrick Schmidt and David Shank won first place in the competition; Rex Mann, Kelli Benham, and Mark Little won second place and the award for best brief. This near-sweep of awards has never happened before in this competition and is very rare in any national moot court program. The students are coached by Austin attorneys Jay Ong, Debbie Langehennig, '88, and Vanessa Gonzalez, '08. Professor Jay Westbrook, '68, who holds the Benno C. Schmidt Chair of Business Law, works with the teams as well.
"This sweep of the Duberstein competition is a great credit to Patrick, David, Rex, Kelli and Mark; to their able coaches; and to Professor Westbrook," said Dean Larry Sager. "Bankruptcy Law and Advocacy are great strengths at UT Law, but these wins are about their inspired talent and hard work. We're lucky to be able claim them as our own."
The competition is sponsored by the American Bankruptcy Institute and St. John's University School of Law. The ABI Endowment Fund provides cash awards to the winning participants, while St. John's provides plaques. The Duberstein Competition is named for the late Judge Conrad B. Duberstein—a St. John's alumnus and former ABI Director—and has grown into one of the larger appellate moot court competitions in the nation, with nearly fifty teams from thirty-five participating law schools. The final rounds were held this year at the recently-renamed Duberstein Federal Courthouse in Brooklyn, New York.
"The Duberstein win is the most current national championship for UT Law and we're very proud of these students and coaches," said Tracy McCormack, '86, director of the Law School's Advocacy Program. "This highlights an exceptionally successful year for UT Law and adds a national championship to the four regional championships already won this spring. The Duberstein team brought home the twelfth national championship of the last ten years, but since we still have two more teams competing at the national and international level this semester, we're hoping to add to that number."
The UT Law Duberstein moot court teams also participated in the 2010 Elliott Cup in February. Named for the Honorable Joseph Elliott, former Chief Bankruptcy Judge for the Western District of Texas, the Elliott Cup serves as a run-up to the Duberstein National Competition. UT Law team members Benham and Mann took first place with Benham also winning Best Advocate. The competition was held at the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans, Louisiana.
This year's case problem was pulled from today's headlines involving Ponzi scheme bankruptcies, and raised two questions: whether a sophisticated investor who becomes suspicious and withdraws funds is denied the protection provided to good-faith transferees, and whether a bankruptcy trustee can waive an individual debtor's attorney-client privilege. More than two dozen bankruptcy judges from around the country served on the quarter-final and semi-final rounds as judges.

2 Week Cooldown. Still Unclaimed.Good really early morning, artists.
I'm going to call this a wallpaper/background request. This will actually go on my Guild's website as the main background to the front page. I don't really need any text or anything, but there is something that I would like. I was able to get a basic concept of what I wanted done, but it lacks the pizzaz that your lovely people put on your wallpapers/sigs/avatars.
That is My Guild's website and while looking through this thread, there are so many awesome people here, that I thought if I could not do it, one of you could. Obviously, you will get full credit and any other demands you may need. ($$ compensation is on the table as well)
Here are the specifics:
Resolution: 1920x1080
Visible Text: N/A
Armory: (Look at the link for a shot of the characters)
-- Male Night Elf Druid
-- Female Human Warrior
Gear Set:
-- NE Druid: Full Cataclysmic Gladiator Kodohide Gear
-- Human Warrior: Full Cataclysmic Gladiator Plate Gear
Helm Visible: Only for Druid
Your Pose:
-- NE Druid: Basically facing to the center for the image. He should be on the left hand side of the image itself.
-- Human Warrior: She is facing the center of the image from the right side. She is talking using her hands and then paused while the arm is extended.
Color Scheme: Lots of earth tones. If you can, try and mingle those tones with the armor from both the warrior and druid.
Extras: Free reign, if you fancy something or artistic inspiration comes to mind, have at it.
Now, ignore the lines that are going diagonally through the front page when you look at it, that is CSS scripting for the site. No need to add those in.
Thank you very much and if you have any questions, please let me know.
(Please let me know if there is something that's too rough, I can possibly change what I need)

This is an interesting team in terms of rebuilding. Pittsburgh signed two pitchers out of India last year, potentially opening the door to one of the largest markets and untapped talent pools in the world. They might have one the best defensive outfields in baseball in Jones/McCutchen/Milledge. Jones? Who is Garrett Jones? Yeah, I didn't know who he was either. He was originally signed by the Braves out of HS. He spent 3 years in their system, followed by 7 years in Minnesota's, including a cup of coffee with the Twins in 2007, where he did NOT impress. 2009 saw him playing in 82 games for the Pirates, hitting 21 HR's and an OPS .938. His AAA OPS is .784, but that has gone up every year since 2006. I think he'll have to battle Ryan Church for the RF job in ST, and he has little margin for error, but he could be Pittsburgh's Ryan Ludwick.
Aside from Iwamura, I think the infield is a wreck. You have a very unproven guy at 1B in Pearce. Good minor league numbers that haven't really translated to the big league level. He seems to be able to take a BB, but the contact rate isn't there yet. He could surprise, and his minor league numbers say we shouldn't be too surprised at 20+ HR's.
There aren't too many players I'd rather have less than Ronny Cedeno. He's an automatic out. Pirate fans will miss Jack Wilson's defense too.
Andy Laroche. Gaudy minor league numbers, meh as a major leaguer. If he's going to draw 50 BB's, he better hit .290. And he needs to up that SLG to north of .450 too. He's only 26 though and just completed his first full season.
The Pirates rotation couldn't strike out Mark Reynolds. Not a bunch of K machines, and without Jack Wilson, I expect bad things from a rotation that relies on defense. Iwamura helps, and admittedly I know little about the defense on the corners, but a lot hinges on Ronny Cedeno.
This may be the worst bullpen I have ever seen assembled. For their sake, some young pitcher HAS to step up. Just awful. Their closer hasn't closed regularly since what, 2006? Their setup man is 38 years old. and the fall off from there is pretty steep.
The Pirate organization has a lot of history, and geography makes them good rivals for the Reds. But until they can field a talented team, that can't happen. 90+ losses loom for them in 2010. Again.

City's Park closure rule clarified to define what 'sunset' means
Sep 20, 2012 - By Katie Roenigk, Staff Writer
The Riverton City Council on Tuesday clarified its intent to close local parks after sundown every evening.
Council members earlier this month expressed concern that closing parks at sunset would cause problems for schoolchildren and other residents who use the public areas in the evening, so on Tuesday they amended the city's park hours ordinance at the direction of police chief Mike Broadhead.
"We could add a legislative intent note into that ordinance that really tries to define what sundown means," Broadhead said, suggesting that "after sundown" could be defined as "those hours of darkness after the sun is fully set and the only lighting in the park is from the moon or artificial light."
Mayor Ron Warpness approved of the change.
"I just felt really uncomfortable ... just to lock it down at sunset," he said. "I know we have people that live around the parks. I can envision them calling up at sunset saying, 'Hey, they're still playing in the park,' even though it's a beautiful evening with plenty of sunlight."
He said the amendment allows police officers to use their discretion when patrolling Riverton parks, but it also provides officials with an ordinance that is "internally consistent with that discretion."
Councilman Lars Baker asked whether the ordinance would cover sidewalks that line most city parks, pointing specifically to the sidewalk that cuts through the middle of City Park on Federal Boulevard. Broadhead said sidewalks along roadways would not be included in the ordinance, but the sidewalk through City Park does count as park property.
Currently all parks are open between 6 a.m. and 11:59 p.m. Broadhead reminded the council that the change in hours should help alleviate crime in Riverton.
"The idea is just to have one more tool to prevent vandalism and crime occurring in our parks after hours of darkness," he said.
Sanctioned athletic activities on lighted fields are not included in the proposed ordinance, which states that it would be "unlawful for any person or persons, other than city personnel conducting city business, to occupy or be present in any park during any hours in which the park is not open."
Council members passed the ordinance on second reading Tuesday; it will come up for a vote one more time before becoming part of the city's code.

No matter how well you think you've gauged your trick-or-treater turnout this year, that candy surplus is almost inevitable. And while you may be able to pass some of the sugary burden onto your coworkers, when it comes to the break room candy bowl, it's every girl for herself. While there's nothing wrong with the occasional treat, by limiting the quantity and knowing which sweets to splurge on, you can keep those extra calories at bay and save your strength for the season's main event—Thanksgiving dinner.

The drawings in this sketchbook were a critical part of Gleeson's re-invention of himself as a painter beginning with an intensive period of drawing between 1977 & 1982. His subsequent new large-scaled paintings, for which he was later highly acclaimed, were first exhibited in 1983.
The artist considered this to be his finest sketchbook. Some of the drawings are among the most powerful Gleeson has made, where he is at his most free and imaginative in the dreamlike mis-shaping of corruptible flesh. They reveal the influence of Dali and Picasso, but particularly Picasso in his return to classicism during 1916-24.

Silver Square-Rimmed Chargers, Set of 4 2 2
Clean lines... These chargers are perfect for an elegant dinner, or can used for everyday! Pricing...perfection! March 9, 2011
picture is not accurate These charger seem to be a good value for the cost. Unfortunately I bought them based on the picture thinking that this would be a worn/vintage looking silver with variations in color and texture over the surface. These chargers are a SOLID SILVER COLOR with NO VARIATIONS or DISTRESSING. Not the look I was going for, so they had to be returned. November 14, 2013

A Nephrologist at Your Fingertips
For the patients at DaVita's Northumberland Dialysis Center in Mount Carmel, Penn., quick and easy access to a nephrologist is rarely an issue. Unexpected health troubles? Schedule changes? Inclement weather? No problem. The dialysis center nurse simply wheels over a cart equipped with a screen, mobile camera and headset. Within minutes, the patient is connected to a nephrologist at nearby Geisinger Medical Center without ever leaving the chair.

Reducing the pedestrian death toll, one crosswalk at a time
By queen
Tuesday, June 9th, 2009 at 12:15 pm in Misc. Transportation.
If you happen to be driving in San Francisco's Ingleside district today, keep a sharp eye out for pedestrians in the crosswalk. According to online newspaper SF Appeal, police will be conducting pedestrian stings at the crosswalks. To be more exact, decoys who appear to be everyday citizens will step foot in the crosswalk, and if approaching drivers don't stop for them, pow! out comes the ticket book.
The Queen is not always a fan of sting operations, but such actions seem justified when one considers the fact that the hapless pedestrian is competing with tons of steel. In case this action seems Draconian, here's the applicable section of California's Vehicle Code:
Right-of-Way at Crosswalks
21950. (a) The driver of a vehicle shall yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing the roadway within any marked crosswalk or within any unmarked crosswalk at an intersection, except as otherwise provided in this chapter.

Staff supervision of students begins at 8:40 a.m. Breakfast in the classroom begins at 8:47 am.
Student Drop Off
Adults delivering children to school should leave them off in front of school.
Our award-winning Safety Patrol helps provide safe travel to and from school.
The San Diego Police Department requests that only students in grades four and above ride bicycles to school. Although the school has designated an area by the front office for students to park bicycles, the San Diego Unified School District is not responsible for theft, damage, or loss of use to any bicycle, equipment or article left in or around this area. All such risk is assumed by the student.
All bicycles should have locks and licenses. Students are urged to secure their bicycles in an appropriate manner by using a quality lock and chain or other devices.
Helmets are required by California law. Students not wearing helmets may lose the privilege of parking a bike on school grounds. As defined in Vehicle Code Section 21212, any person under 18 years of age must wear a properly fitted and fastened helmet when riding a bicycle, scooter, skateboard, or when wearing in-line or roller skates. Helmets must also meet the standards of either the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) or the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
Students are dismissed promptly at 3:25 p.m. (1:00 p.m. on Tuesday) and should leave campus immediately upon dismissal. Students who ride the bus to and from school will leave shortly after dismissal.
Student Pick Up
Please meet your child by the lunch arbor. The front curb is painted green to indicate 15 minute stopping and white for 3 minute stopping. Signs are posted to assist you. Please ensure the safety of all students by not parking in the bus loading area and/or asking your child(ren) to cross the street without a parent present. The school"s main concern is for the health and safety of your children.
Specific dismissal procedures vary by grade level, as indicated below:
If you are more than 10 minutes late to pick up a student, please go to the front office. You may be asked to provide identification. Please review the Visitors Policy page for additional information.

Biotech leaders see challenges
CHICAGO Biotechnology has long thrived on its record of creating life-saving drugs. And as the nation's new health care system comes into existence, the industry faces new challenges.
As the Biotechnology Industry Organization meets for its annual convention this week in Chicago, there's anxiety on several fronts:
• A medical device tax, imposed to help pay for the Affordable Care Act, may stifle innovation, the industry says.
• The Supreme Court is drawing close to a decision on the controversial issue of gene patenting. Most biotech companies support gene patents as necessary to provide incentives for new products.
• The federal budget cuts known as sequestration has reduced biomedical research funding, and halted an industry-funded initiative to speed up drug reviews.
On an optimistic note, biotech executives say their companies prove their worth by creating new products that big pharmaceutical companies can't produce.
Big pharmaceutical companies regularly form partnerships with biotechs, or acquire them outright, to get valuable technology they don't have. That point was underscored this month with the $13.6 billion purchase of Carlsbad's Life Technologies by Thermo Fisher.
Joe Panetta, chief executive of the San Diego-based life science trade group Biocom, said he has some immediate and long-range worries about federal policy toward biotech. In the short term, sequestration may be most painful.
Drug makers had agreed to pay more to the Food and Drug Administration to speed up marketing applications, but budget cuts keep that money from being spent, Panetta said.
"In our industry, more time means uncertainty for investors and more financial burn by companies while they wait," Panetta said.
Southern California is hurt because it's a major recipient of National Institutes of Health grants, which keep young researchers employed and supplements private and state grants to universities and research centers, Panetta said.
"The sequester effectively cuts NIH's (fiscal) 2013 budget by about 8 percent, and we will feel it here more than other regions will," he said.
In the longer term, Panetta said the new medical device excise tax could stifle innovation, because it's imposed regardless of a company's size or profitability. This disproportionately hurts new companies, which are major providers of new ideas and products.
Finally, Panetta said President Barack Obama is creating uncertainty by attempting to cut from 12 years to 7 years the period of protection for information companies generate for biotech drug applications.
"Ironically, the president talks a lot about his support of innovation, yet his actions such as this do not follow his words," Panetta said. "The economic data in many studies have shown that this period of time is required for a company to recover and break even on the investment in developing an innovative biotech drug."
The good news for biotech this year is that the climate is improving for public stock offerings, and big pharmaceutical companies continue to be interested in deals, Panetta said.
Gene patents
Gene patenting is generally supported by biotech companies, but there's considerable dissent. The case before the Supreme Court involves Myriad Genetics, which claims the exclusive right to develop products based on two genes called BRCA1 and BRCA2, which are linked to breast and ovarian cancer.

Aerospace and Defence HR Partnership
Start building your future workforce. The Department of Education's Invest in Youth program may be for you.
The HR Partnership was established to bring together the three key elements of the Workforce - Industry, Educators and Trainers, and Government agencies as well as career seekers and workforce mebers. Several initiatives are bearing fruit, and the results of collaboration are evident.
The Three R's - Right people, Right place, Right time¨ That was the theme of the second Workforce Strategy and Careers Forum presented by the Aerospace and Defence Human Resources Partnership on 3 and 4 May at the Aviation Institute of the Nova Scotia Community College (NSCC). The Department of Education's Skills Nova Scotia, The Conference Board of Canada, the Canadian Aerospace HR Alliance, NSCC and other organizations contributed to this event, as did members of the HR Partnership and the Aerospace and Defence Industries Association of Nova Scotia.
The Forum was opened by The Honourable Dr. John Hamm, recently retired Premier of Nova Scotia shown here being greeted by HRP Board Chair Dr. Paul Dixon, NSCC Aviation Institute Director Captain Peter Bing, and Jim King, President of the HRP.
More than 150 people representing all segments of the Workforce constituency from across Canada took part in a focussed and dynamic series of discussions on issues and solution seeking sessions. Many of the students of the Aviation Institute actively participated. "The three R's¨ was conducted in two tracks. Track One, the Strategy Forum, featured speakers and panelists from industry, education and training, and policy leaders from all levels of government. Each session included free-ranging discussion and development of recommendations for future initiatives. One panel focused on Diversity in the Workplace - under-represented Groups - new Canadians, Aboriginal and African-Nova Scotian people and women.
Track Two focused on careers and the needs of people looking for a career. It gave them the opportunity to meet people from industry and learn more about the opportunities, challenges and rewards of highly skilled careers in Aerospace and Defence.Intestate: Introduction to Solicitors dealing with intestacy and family provision claims on death.
