Paige Johnson
COVINGTON, Ky. - Tips continue to come in on a missing Florence teenager but sofar they have failed to turn up any new information on herwhereabouts.
Covington police are leading the search for 17-year-old PaigeJohnson after she was reported missing on September 23.
A male acquaintance said he dropped Johnson off in the area of15th and Scott near a friend's house around 1 a.m. but she did notmake it into the friend's house, according to police.
"Right now it is a missing person's case. We've been unable toconfirm a crime has been committed but we are investigating it asif there could be foul play involved. We're hoping for the best butpreparing as if a crime has been committed," said Captain TealNally of Covington police.
Police are not releasing the acquaintance's name.
Nally said the acquaintance has not provided any furtherinformation and has now hired an attorney.
"He's certainly allowed to have representation. Ideally, wewould have open communication with anybody who would haveinformation on this case but he's gotten representation and he'sallowed to do that," said Nally. "So we are just going on theinformation we do have and talk to the people who will talk tous."
On Tuesday, Johnson's family spent the afternoon placing moremissing person fliers around Northern Kentucky.
"It's like a big mystery. It doesn't make any sense to me atall. She left to go somewhere, didn't make it there, and now she'sjust gone and nobody knows where she went," said Donna Johnson,Paige's mother.
Johnson has a 2-year old-daughter, McKenzie, who is now beingcare for by her father and his parents.
Donna said Paige and McKenzie were scheduled to get theirpictures taken together earlier this month.
"She was real excited about that like, 'I can't wait to get ourpictures made. Me and Kenz.' And she wouldn't just run off. I knowshe wouldn't," said Johnson.
Paige's friends have not heard from her either.
"She has not accessed any of her social networks e-mail,Facebook, MySpace that she was normally active in," said Nally.
Anyone with information on this case to call the CovingtonPolice Department at (859)292-2222 or they can call the NationalCenter for Missing and Exploited Children.
The NCMEC has assisted Covington Police in theinvestigation.
They have helped Johnson's family put up signs all over NorthernKentucky and Greater Cincinnati.
"We can't stop until we find her," said Johnson. "We won't stopuntil we find Paige."

I have heard a rumour that if the webserver doesn't send the right Content-type header (eg. Content-type: text/html) IE will just assume it's text/html and will display the page as normal. Whereas firefox will decide it doesn't know what the data is (could be binary or anything) and consider it to be a file to download. But that is only a vague idea I have - no idea if it's even close to correct.

I posted a reply to Robert saying that the browser based xforms processors could probably use ie's contenteditable functionality to implement a wysiwyg xhtml editor for a certain xml schema or appearance values. This would be compatible across mozilla and ie5+. As for the logic behind it - I think having xhtml-generation support built into xforms is entirely valid. Xhtml is a good semantic information-format, valid inside an xml document (either escaped or not) - and can be used to specify a lot of information that would otherwise require a propeitary mark-up scheme.

Puppy: Bella
Friends: 0
Member Since: May 15, 2008Add to Friends
We drove a long way to pick up our little Bella, and I held her all the home. When I got out to stretch my legs, she cried for me to come back and hold her again. As a puppy, she loved to crawl in my lap and fall asleep. She was a good puppy and always aimed to make us happy. Now, as a full grown 12-year old dog, Bella is as spry and silly as ever. Her favorite thing in life is to play fetch with her rubber ball, and she will play until she's too exhausted to go on. Then she likes to sit on the cool tiles at the foot of our stairs to rest after a long afternoon of romping in the yard. She knows I love it when she rolls in the grass, so she does it just to make me laugh. She's my little baby girl, and I love her so much.View Profile

Happily Abandoning the Fast Track
I know the importance of rest now, but I didn't prior to my journey through cancer. Before, I'd race along the multi-tasking interstate at mach speed. Before, I took pride in how much I could accomplish in a nano-second and how clearly I saw through the blur of so much momentum. Before, I wasn't paying attention to the stop signs. I was too busy.
After my second diagnosis in 2007—a year after my first—neglecting the stops signs was no longer an option. It became clear that the vehicle I was in could no long sustain the demands I placed upon her. After such a hectic pace, my world suddenly crashed to slow-mo…like the parts in a movie where the main character's life goes awry and strangely out of focus. That's when a friend gave me the book, Sabbath: Finding Rest, Renewal and Delight in Our Busy Lives by Wayne Muller.
Half way through the book, I bought 10 copies and gave them to my closest girlfriends. (Right or wrong, I think men are better at chilling out.) They accepted my gift like eager children clamoring for candy on Halloween.
Then, for a solid year, I devoted one day a week to doing nothing. Once I lay in the summer grass and for two lollygagging hours, watched the clouds overhead. I was transported back to childhood when doing nothing was a regular part of life. And it's no wonder: it's good for us.
In his book, Muller writes: "If we do not allow for a rhythm of rest in our overly busy lives, illness becomes our Sabbath—our pneumonia, our cancer, our heart attack, our accidents create Sabbath for us….I am always struck by the mixture of sadness and relief that (people with life-threatening illness) experience when illness interrupts their overly busy lives. While each shares their particular fears and sorrows, almost every one confesses some secret gratefulness. 'Finally, at last, I can rest.'"
Even though it was hard for me to stop my busy life to recover from radiation or surgery, I too felt relieved at no longer living in a constant rush. I wondered why I hadn't learned to rest before.
I recently had the enormous pleasure of meeting one of the great minds of our time, Ellen Langer. She is a psychology professor at Harvard and an artist. For decades, Ellen has researched how our minds work and how habits can follow if gone unchecked. I told her my notion that multi-tasking is the downfall of contemporary women, and she balked. "I disagree." My eyebrows rose. As such an accomplished woman, I assumed she was stressed out like so many of us. But Ellen is great at deconstructing assumptions. "The observer never knows what goes on inside of the actor," she said, followed by: "I like multi-tasking." Apparently, she gets a flow going between the different things she's doing, which is rewarding to her.
"Don't you feel torn between what you're doing?" I asked, still aghast that someone wouldn't agree that multi-tasking is hazardous to our health. "You only feel torn because you're either feeling inconvenienced by the task or you think that by not doing it, some tragedy will occur."
In her typical fashion, Ellen made me rethink my experience and examine my thoughts and habits. Even though I used to love the feeling of accomplishment that multi-tasking in the fast lane provided, I was in a constant state of frustration and never found the flow she referred to. Rather, I felt inconvenienced at having to do one thing or another while thinking something else was more important. In that track, I could never be fully present as a wife, mother, employee, playwright, cook, or anything else. And meditation? Are you kidding?
I have somehow lost the habit of doing nothing one day a week. And I still don't multi-task. But I have found the flow that Ellen speaks of. For me, it requires doing one thing at a time and being fully present with it. I don't get as much done, nor am I as organized. But I'm happier, I have more time for the small pleasures, and my family says that life is better now than it was before cancer.
I still have lots to do. Emails to answer. Dust bunnies to wrangle. More blogs to write. And I'll get to them all, I promise. But first, my beloved nap.

TEMPE, Ariz. — This Saturday at noon, Colorado's Sefo Liufau will become the fifth true freshman in school history to start at quarterback. Whether he keeps the job will help determine when Mike MacIntyre's program gets off the Pac-12 mat.
The first-year CU coach has more issues than wins with his 2-3 (0-3 Pac-12) team. The defense has become defenseless. No go-to tailback has stepped up. The Buffaloes go entire halves without getting the ball to their best player, junior wide receiver Paul Richardson.
But no issue is bigger than finding a dynamic quarterback.
Connor Wood erased his superb start to the season with erratic performances in three Pac-12 blowout losses. Midway through the first quarter of Saturday night's 54-13 loss to Arizona State at Sun Devil Stadium, MacIntyre finally decided the future is now.
In came Liufau. And one sharp, heady, 80-yard touchdown drive later, CU had a new starting quarterback.
"It's just like high school football to me," Liufau said after the game. "After the first couple of plays, everything slowed down. It was fun to play."
Liufau commited to CU when Jon Embree was coaching the Buffs. MacIntyre liked Liufau so much, he did more than honor his commitment. He saw the future in the 6-foot-4, 210-pounder who threw for 7,297 yards and 68 touchdowns and led Bellarmine Prep in Tacoma, Wash., to a 34-5 record.
Liufau's accuracy and calm demeanor impressed the new CU coaching staff from the first day of August camp. Against the Sun Devils, on that first drive, he did it for real.
"He handled himself really well," said Nelson Spruce, who caught Liufau's 10-yard touchdown pass to cap the drive. "That first drive, he was calm, making all the throws that we needed. He kept his composure really well for his first time."
MacIntyre could hook his future on Liufau's right arm, but he said after the game that he hasn't given up on Wood, a junior. While Liufau is CU's new starter, the coach added, "He's got to play good, though."
It's clear that MacIntyre lost patience with Wood, whose leash in the Arizona State game lasted all of three series and four incompletions, including an interception. In Pac-12 games, Wood has been mediocre, completing just 25-of-71 (.352) passes for 351 yards, two touchdowns and five picks. In the past two games, he was 0-for-18 on third down.
Even with Liufau's 169 yards on 18-of-26 passing, CU is last in the Pac-12 in total offense, averaging 375.2 yards per game.
And remember, the Buffs will be led by a true freshman who will play like it on occasion. In the second half against the Sun Devils' backups, Liufau threw two interceptions, lost a fumble and had an intentional grounding call result in a safety.
"He had a couple mistakes," MacIntyre said. "But to me, he looked pretty calm. He made some good third-down plays. He made some good throws. It didn't look like it was too big for him. From the naked eye, I thought it was good. But he had a couple turnovers that we don't need to have."
CU's season is far from lost. Next up is Charleston Southern, a 7-0 team — but an FCS team that has never defeated an FBS (formerly Division I-A) opponent in 13 tries.
"If we can beat them and be 3-3, it'd be nice to be 3-3 at the end of October," MacIntyre said. "You keep moving and improving. You never know."

Eye on…The Buccaneers
Charleston Southern at Colorado, noon Saturday, Pac-12 Networks
For the record: Charleston Southern is 7-0 after beating Virginia Military Institute 25-17 on the road to open Big South Conference play.
Streaking: The Buccaneers have won seven consecutive games for the first time since starting the 2006 season 9-0.
Who's hot: Redshirt freshman quarterback Danny Croghan III has started two games in place of injured senior Malcolm Dixon and is 31-of-50 passing for 396 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions.
Who's not: Christian Reyes, with 684 yards in six games and needing 94 more to top Vinson Blain's school season rushing record of 777 yards set in 1998, gained only 45 yards on 11 carries against VMI.
Key stat: Charleston Southern has lost all 13 games it has played against FBS (formerly Division I-A) teams. The average score of the losses: 55-9.
FYI: First-year Buccaneers coach Jamey Chadwell returned to Charleston Southern after four years as head coach at Delta State and North Greenville, both Division II programs. His career record is 32-21. He previously served as an assistant for five years at Charleston Southern, which started football in 1991 as a Division III independent.

The Rolling Stones Tickets
|The Rolling Stones Tickets
Details of The Rolling Stones and the Ticket Luck value
The self-proclaimed 'World's Greatest Rock and Roll Band' actually did prove their claim to the title. With their unique brand of bluesy rock the band became one of the leading names in the world of rock music. The sustained popularity of the rock legends is backed by an impressive list of songs and albums. Incorporating music of their contemporaries like the Beatles, Who and Kinks, the band experimented musically but always stayed true to its roots.
The Rolling Stones started off as a quintet playing their first gig at the Marquee Club in 1962. Mick Jagger featured as the band's front man, while Keith Richards and Brian Jones performed at the rhythm guitars. Other initial members included Ian Stewart and Dick Taylor as bassists. Later on Charlie Watts joined the band as the drummer and Bill Wyman as bassist. Jagger and Richards soon became celebrities in their own right influencing countless musicians over the years. The band's current lineup consists of founding members Jagger and Richards, Watts on drums and Ronnie Wood on guitars.
The Rolling Stones rose to the forefront of the rock music landscape in 70's. Their remarkable career spans over more than five decades. Through times of shifting music sensibilities, Rolling Stones have rolled on strongly adapting to the prevalent styles but never straying far from their electric blues roots. Over the years, The Rolling Stones have dabbled in a variety of musical styles including album rock, rock and roll, blues rock and hard rock, among others.
The Rolling Stones has an impressive resume of achievements to its credit including an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the UK Music Hall of Fame. The band ranked fourth on the Rolling Stone Magazine's list of "100 Greatest Artists of All Time". With an estimated 250 million records sold worldwide, Rolling Stone also ranks among the best selling groups of all time. The iconic group ranked tenth on the Billboard's "Hot 100 All Time Top Artists" chart.
The highly prolific rock band has twenty-nine studio albums to its credit as well as eighteen live albums and numerous compilations. The rock legends are also responsible for a number of high-grossing concert tours. Voodoo Lounge Tour and Bridges to Babylon Tour in the 90's, Licks Tour and A Bigger Band Tour during the 2000's are among the highest-grossing tours of The Rolling Stones.
The Rolling Stones has numerous hits on the Billboard with several of their songs peaking at number one on the "Billboard Hot 100" chart. Their 60's chart topping songs include the famous track "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction", "Get Off of My Cloud", "Ruby Tuesday" and "Paint It, Black". With 70's classic hits "Angie", "Miss You" and "Brown Sugar" the band ranked top at the "Billboard Hot 100" charts again. 80's era saw the songs "Emotional Rescue" and "Start Me Up" feature on the Billboard charts.
The Rolling Stones were at the peak of their career during the 70's scoring eight consecutive number one hits on the "Billboard 200" albums chart. The ascension began with the Rolling Stones most popular album to date, Sticky Fingers. Issued in 1971 the album included hits "Brown Sugar" and "Wild Horses". The group recently announced a reissue of the album. Other chart topping albums included Goats Head Soup, It's Only Rock and Roll, Black and Blue, and Some Girls. Rolling Stones most recent studio album, GRRR! , peaked at number eight on the Billboard's "Top Rock Albums" chart.
The Rolling Stones has become a household name over the course of their career. The Rolling Stones tickets have always been in high demand among music lovers. The band has developed an extensive fan following by churning one hit song and album after the next and through tireless touring efforts. Their bluesy rock still appeals to countless audiences worldwide, and their rock icon status remains intact if not flourishing after all these years.

One of the most common questions that I get is about how I always seem to have something to write about. They ask, "where do your ideas come from?"
Of course, that can be a hard question to answer, because my ideas often come from more than one source. However, after a lot of thought I was able to come up with an answer. In this post, I've identified five sources for my blog post ideas that you can probably use too.
Five Sources for Ideas
I definitely have a lot of ideas for blog posts–more ideas than I'll probably ever be able to write about. Some of that comes from the fact that I really do enjoy writing and find this way of earning a living to be very interesting (at least to me).
In fact, I've already written a post chronicling common sources of inspiration, but I've found that post really doesn't cover it all for me.
However, I took a closer look at my own sources for ideas and was able to identify five sources that nearly anyone can draw from.
Here are the five sources:
- Experience–The majority of what I write is based on my own experiences. I'd say that over seventy-five percent of my blog posts come from something that I am experiencing at the time or from something that I've experienced in the past. Experience is a great source of inspiration. (And the wonderful thing about it is that everyone's experiences are unique.)
- Emotions–Another source of inspiration for me is my own feelings. I know that whatever feeling I'm struggling with at any given time is a feeling that others struggle with as well. Writing about my own struggles is not only therapeutic for me, but for me readers as well. These tend to be some of my most popular posts.
- Training–Everyone has been trained differently. Even if someone has studied the exactly same areas as me, they've likely learned different things. What you learn is always with you. I've found my own formal training in business to be surprisingly invaluable to my career as a professional freelance writer.
- Random Occurrences–I can't help it. Many of my posts do come from random things that happen to me. Often, these things are totally unrelated to business or freelancing on the surface, but if I think about them closely I can see a parallel. An example of this is when I saw a flower growing out of concrete.
- Other People–No one lives in a vacuum. The people I interact with sometimes become the inspiration for my blog posts whether they are family members, clients, fellow freelancers, or just someone I happen to meet.
Of course, regardless of where you draw your blog post ideas from the important thing is that you stick with it. The more you write, the better you will become.
What is the source of your blog ideas?

MICHAEL Clarke's seventh Ashes hundred, in a double-century stand with Brad Haddin, piled the pressure on England to save the second Test at Adelaide.
Clarke (148), already averaging more than 100 runs per innings in Tests here, batted wonderfully after some early fortune as he and Haddin (118) powered Australia to 570 for nine declared on day two.
Clarke's opposite number Alastair Cook then had no answer to the extreme pace of Mitchell Johnson, losing his off-stump to a 92mph thunderbolt, to immediately undermine England's reply.
It was to the credit of Michael Carberry and new number three Joe Root, however, that they managed to reach stumps without further loss on 35 - albeit after a run-out scare for the former, survived from the penultimate ball of the day when there was no direct hit following a call for a faulty single to cover, and then finally a Johnson lbw appeal turned down but which would have been out on review.
The tourists did not help themselves with some more sleepy and costly work in the field in Clarke and Haddin's ground record sixth-wicket stand against any Test opposition of exactly 200.
Nothing went right for England, in fact, after Carberry had dropped Haddin on just five the previous evening - one of four clear-cut chances which went begging in Australia's innings.
Even when it seemed Ben Stokes had broken the partnership at 111, Haddin caught-behind pushing forward, instead Marais Erasmus checked for a no-ball which was confirmed by video replay.
After Haddin therefore retraced his steps to the middle, there was an ugly reprise of the antagonism which marred the first Test in Brisbane, as batsman and bowler engaged in a verbal confrontation at the end of the over and had to be spoken to by Erasmus.
Clarke was unfazed, and duly reached his second hundred of the series in Stokes' next over - his 26th in Tests.
He was not done yet either, batting well into the afternoon, until he did become Stokes' first Test victim - chipping the first delivery of a new spell to midwicket off a leading edge to end an exemplary, near six-hour innings having hit 17 fours from 245 balls.
There was to be no revenge for Stokes against Haddin, though, the wicketkeeper-batsman instead completing his hundred off the debutant with a fierce pull for his 11th four to add to four sixes.
England had resumed on a cloudy morning hoping they would not pay a high price for the catches dropped the previous evening.
Clarke, of course, had the opposite agenda - and it was he who prevailed as Australia, already 1-0 up in this series, piled on England's misery.
The Australia captain was out to impose himself from the outset against Monty Panesar, and immediately squirted two runs just over and wide of cover to complete his 50.
Clarke might easily have gone without addition to his overnight score, after failing to get to the pitch and chancing his arm nonetheless - but thereafter he was masterful.
Dicey moment
Haddin's first runs of the day took him to 1,000 against England, on his way to the fifth half-century of the innings.
Yet quicker reactions in the field might twice have helped see him off on 18 and then 30.
Carberry was unable to deliver the right throw for a possible run-out after a quick single to short third-man; then Panesar could not make enough ground to take the catch after a faulty hook at James Anderson.
Clarke had one dicey moment, on 91, when Ian Bell was unable to cling on to an especially tough chance at short-leg as the batsman advanced to Graeme Swann and got a thick inside-edge.
For good measure, Clarke also managed to regain his ground before the ball could be ferried back to the stumps by Ian Bell and wicketkeeper Matt Prior.
England's suffering was not yet complete - and even after Clarke was gone, Haddin kept sweeping the spinners to shreds and carving the pace too.
Number 10 Ryan Harris (55no) then weighed in too with a near run-a-ball 50, the sixth of an Australia innings containing an Ashes record 11 sixes, as almost another 100 was added for the eighth and nine wickets before Clarke called time.
He had left 21 overs in which Johnson and Harris could make inroads.
In the end, though, only Cook was to succumb - late in defence as Johnson seared past 90mph with almost every delivery in a fearsome four-over spell with the new ball.
Stokes defiant
Stokes remains adamant England can get back into the second Ashes Test. "It's been a pretty tough two days but it's nice to eventually get off the pitch and concentrate on what we've got to do with the bat," he told Sky Sports 2.
"We've just got to go out there and do what we do. There's a lot of talent in the batting line-up and we know that we've got the skills to do it and try to put a big score on ourselves."
He added: "It (the pitch) hasn't really sort of broken up like we thought it would with it being so dry. It's still a very good batting wicket and hopefully we can capitalise on how good it is.
"We didn't want to give any more away and give them the upper hand, as it is. We go in tomorrow with nine wickets left and we can pile them on tomorrow."
Describing his personal highlight when he dismissed Clarke for his first Test wicket, Stokes added: "I think it was the pitch," he said.
"A very special moment. Something that I'll never forget, it's my first Test wicket and a very proud moment.
"We had plans as a bowling unit which was to bowl pretty straight. The pitch wasn't really doing much so we just had to hang in there and pile on as much pressure as we could.
"The wickets did come. They weren't very often but the way we bowled I think we created quite a lot of pressure."

Not sure where to start?
Want feedback on your current marketing efforts before moving forward with a new plan?
Need guidance? expert advice? a second opinion? some new ideas? answers?
No sweat.
Below are all of your consultation options. If you have a specific area of your marketing your want to address, I recommend scheduling THAT consultation. However, if you need a little help all over the place, or want me to review a few different areas of your marketing strategy (or lack there of) then I HIGHLY recommend scheduling a Strategy Session.
Here's the difference:
Consultation – a consultation is one hour of focused advice and Q&A about a certain topic. Typically, you are concerned with one area of your marketing (let's say it's your email newsletter and you want to know what you can do better). We spend that hour going over your current efforts and talking about ways to improve. I give lots of feedback, suggestions and simple tips & tricks that you can implement right away to get better results. I also answer as many questions as you can fit into the hour
Strategy Session – this is more like an assessment, audit and future plan all rolled into one. When you schedule a Strategy Session, you'll receive a questionnaire so that I can understand your concerns, goals, needs, wants, objectives, struggles and challenges.
Once I get your answers back, I'll do a little internet stalking…seriously…I'll be looking over your internet presense with a fine toothed comb to find your weaknesses and discover opportunites. With all this information, I'll put together a 3 month plan for you…what you need to do in the next 3 months to get on your path to success. I'll determine what you should hire out, what you should do in-house and where your time & money will make the most sense. I'll send you that report and we'll schedule a 1 hour consultation to go over the plan.
During the consult I'll answer your questions and we can make adjustments to the plan as our discussion progresses. You'll feel like you have direction and a firm grasp on WHY you're investing your energy into internet marketing.
Website Evaluation
We'll look at your website's aesthetic, user-friendliness, calls-to-action, and search engine optimization.
Social Media & SEO Evaluation
We will review your presense on Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, YouTube, Yelp, Google, and other websites to find ways to improve your visibility online and your audience engagement.

Bechtel's new Iraq job / Engineering giant adds on $1.8 billion U.S. contract
Published 4:00 am, Wednesday, January 7, 2004
Bechtel Corp., the San Francisco engineering giant leading Iraq's reconstruction, won a new $1.8 billion government contract Tuesday to fix more of the country's power plants and water works.
Bechtel has now landed nearly $3 billion in reconstruction contracts from the U.S. government in the nine turbulent months since Saddam Hussein's fall. The new contract will keep Bechtel in Iraq for another two years -- well past the anticipated transfer of power to a new Iraqi government.
Bechtel's work in the country -- repairing schools, airports and the seaport of Umm Qasr -- has been slowed by sabotage and violence. Iraq citizens seethed through a long summer, defined by power failures, water shortages and toilets that didn't work. Complaints over poor service continue today, despite progress in restoring the nation's battered infrastructure.
But U.S. officials expressed satisfaction Tuesday with the company's performance and cited it as one reason for handing Bechtel more work.

"We have to ensure that past performance is taken into account," said Tim Beans, director of procurement for the U.S. Agency for International Development, which awarded the contract. "Bechtel had just as much chance to mess up as they had to do well."
Beans and his boss, USAID Administrator Andrew Natsios, insisted the company's political connections had nothing to do with the award. Former Secretary of State George Shultz, for example, sits on Bechtel's corporate board. Former Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger, who served under President Ronald Reagan, once worked as Bechtel's general counsel and sat on the firm's board of directors.
"The notion that any of us are going to go in and manipulate this process -- that's ridiculous," Natsios said.
USAID drew fire last year for handing Bechtel its first Iraqi reconstruction contract without full competition, limiting the bidding process to companies handpicked by the government. This time, all interested American firms were allowed to bid.
And yet, fewer companies applied for the second contract than for the first.
Many in the small world of gargantuan construction firms considered Bechtel the favorite, with 177 people already in Iraq or neighboring countries. A detailed Bechtel study of Iraq's infrastructure was even used to shape the new contract, although everyone who bid on the job had access to that report.
"The problem is that once you get your foot in the door with one of these contracts, the second round of contracting is tailored to what you're already doing," said Larry Noble, executive director of the Center for Responsive Politics. "Clearly, when you have the original contract, you have a leg up on additional contracts."
Bechtel spokesman Michael Kidder, however, said the company had proven itself under daunting conditions.
Bechtel engineers in Iraq must work with armed guards and live in compounds protected by razor wire. Riots, looting and sabotage have hampered their efforts. The country's electrical output, for example, didn't return to its prewar average until fall.
"It's a challenging assignment, but I think our work and our performance speaks for itself," Kidder said.
Bechtel won the contract with two other companies -- Parsons Corp. of Pasadena and Horne Engineering Services of Fairfax, Va. -- serving as subcontractors.
The new contract will follow closely on work Bechtel already has performed and will funnel most of the money toward key utilities the U.S.-led coalition governing Iraq has struggled to repair:
-- $1.075 billion for repairs to power stations and the electrical grid.
-- $210 million for water and sanitation projects.
-- $116 million for airport repairs.
-- $109 million for surface transportation, including roads and railways.
-- $90 million toward repairing or replacing buildings.
-- $50 million for additional repairs to the Umm Qasr seaport.
-- $25 million for technical support and procurement.
Paul Bremer, who runs the governing coalition, can change those amounts as he sees fit, allocating more money to some projects and less to others. Congress also must approve the expenditures as they are made, according to USAID. The amount spent, however, cannot top $1.8 billion.
USAID would not disclose Bechtel's exact profit for the work but said it could not exceed 10 percent of the $1.8 billion total, or $180 million. Nor was it clear Tuesday how profits would be divided among Bechtel, Parsons and Horne.
Parsons will focus on water and sewage repairs, said spokeswoman Erin Kuhlman, although she added that her firm would do any other work Bechtel required. Parsons had been the runner-up for the original Iraqi reconstruction contract Bechtel won last spring.
Horne will buy reconstruction supplies and take them into Iraq, said spokesman Miguel Monteverde.
Together, the Bechtel-led team represented one of just three strong bids for the contract, USAID officials said, compared with four for the original contract.
All companies were evaluated by two separate government committees, one checking the firms' technical qualifications, the other examining costs. Bechtel was deemed the most technically qualified and had the lowest price, Beans said.
Competition was limited to U.S. firms. But USAID officials said Tuesday that Bechtel may hire subcontractors from almost any country -- excluding Cuba, Iran, North Korea and a handful of others. Bechtel has been encouraged to work with as many Iraqi companies as possible and last year hired 102 local firms.
Some critics would rather the money go straight to Iraqis rather than passing first through Bechtel's hands.
"It's a slap in the face to a lot of Iraqi businesses that could be doing this work at a fraction of the price," said Medea Benjamin, who helped found the Occupation Watch Center in Baghdad, which monitors the activity of American troops and contractors in Iraq. Bechtel spokesman Kidder responded that the company will continue to hire and train as many Iraqi subcontractors as possible.
Benjamin also questioned handing out more reconstruction contracts just six months before the U.S.-led coalition expects to hand over power to a new Iraqi government. The new contract will run through 2005, whereas Bechtel's first contract ends late this year.
Waiting for a new government, however, could mean a delay in reconstruction efforts that Iraqis already complain have taken too long. Handing out the contract now will ensure that work continues, said USAID spokeswoman Portia Palmer.
"It's the most efficient way to reconstruct this number of projects in the fastest time," she said.
USAID officials said their agency and its contractors would stay in Iraq after the transfer of power, reporting to the U.S. ambassador in Baghdad.

DeaneTR – Enviros Endure
This song is a good metaphor for all the nasty
environmentalists have to endure.
As in what it's like when every swing of a fist
eliminates another endangered species…
As in what's it like when everyone talks about
how they never throw a punch and
greenwashing makes any well deserved punch legitimate,
at least as long as no one's looking?
About how fists wildly flying frantically
unknowingly swinging… everything that's living
turned to dying. And we're suppose to keep speaking
out for the ecology we're all killing?
And we're suppose to survive this amidst this ourselves?
We're suppose to encourage others to truly care
about restoring ecosystems so they too can get
punched in the face again and again…
Is that really how we're gonna live, like how they live in this vid?

Speeches and Correspondence | Essays and Opinion Pieces | Boards and Honors
Robert A. Scott, Ph.D., was appointed by the Adelphi University Board of Trustees as the ninth President and professor of anthropology and sociology in July 2000. He served in this role through June 30, 2015, when he became president emeritus and university professor. From 1985–2000, he served as president of Ramapo College (New Jersey's public liberal arts college known as the College of Choice for a Global Education). During this time, he also served as head of the newly formed New Jersey Commission on Higher Education. Earlier, he served as assistant commissioner of higher education in Indiana. He is the only person to hold the three top positions in American higher education: head of a public institution, a state coordinating board and a private university. Dr. Scott holds the Bachelor of Arts degree from Bucknell University (Pennsylvania) and the Ph.D. degree from Cornell University (New York).
Effective July 1, 2015, Dr. Scott will be on a one-year sabbatical leave during which he will be a Frederick Lewis Allen Room Scholar at the New York Public Library. He has been invited to serve as senior visiting research fellow for the Michaelmas Term 2015 at the University of Oxford (October 12 to December 5, 2015) and to give a major lecture at the Rothermere American Institute in late October 2015. In the spring of 2016, he will lecture in Washington, DC, and Japan. An avid photographer, he will have a solo art exhibit at the Huntington (New York) Arts Council, starting September 25, 2015, with other exhibits in Connecticut and New York City under development. On June 30, 2016, Dr. Scott officially retired from Adelphi University.
Dr. Scott is author or editor of often-cited works in the scholarly and popular media, including more than 200 essays and articles, as well as nine books and monographs, and host of a regularly televised program entitled, Exploring Critical Issues, for which he has earned four Telly Awards and a Gold MarCom International Award for excellence in cable television programming.
Dr. Scott is deeply engaged in world affairs. He is a former member and chair of the American Council on Education's (ACE) Commission on International Education and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. He has represented the United States in international negotiations with UNESCO, with the Council of Europe and with countries in the Asia/Pacific Region.

During his presidency at Adelphi University, more than 300 new faculty were appointed and dozens of new academic programs were added; the first new residence hall in 36 years was completed to accommodate growing student demand, with another added in 2011, and 500,000 square feet of new and renovated space was added, including the Adele and Herbert J. Klapper Center for Fine Arts for sculpture, ceramics, painting and print-making, the Alice Brown Early Learning Center, the Center for Recreation and Sports and related fields and courts, the Performing Arts Center and a 320-car garage below Motamed Field. Nearly 120,000 square-feet of construction received LEED certification. The Nexus Building and Welcome Center—the new home of the College of Nursing and Public Health as well as a number of student and alumni services—begun under Dr. Scott's leadership will open in fall 2015. Alumni contributions rose by nearly 700 percent and annual fundraising results increased by more than 300 percent and invested funds at Adelphi University more than tripled. Total enrollment increased nearly 40 percent, undergraduate enrollment increased by 66 percent and total assets of the University amount to more than $500 million, up from $142 million. Since 2006, Adelphi has been named one of 24 Best Buys in private higher education by the Fiske Guide to Colleges.
Dr. Scott built on Adelphi's rich traditions in undergraduate and graduate education and was the driving force behind Adelphi's development as a pioneering private university, drawing upon the liberal arts tradition of a small, personalized education, while also offering nationally-recognized professional programs.
In keeping with his vision of Adelphi as the "engaged" university, Dr. Scott helped the University deepen its ties with the Long Island community. On-campus cultural events, ranging from timely lectures to art exhibitions and music, dance and theatre performances, attracted alumni and area residents. He involved Adelphi faculty, students and the broader community in addressing pressing community issues. He initiated Adelphi's Vital Signs social health assessment project and Adelphi's Jaggar Community Fellows Program, and established the University's Long Island Center for Nonprofit Leadership. Dr. Scott himself is a model of community involvement, serving on the boards of the Paul Taylor Dance Company and Global Kids, Inc. He was a leader in reforming the G.I. Bill to ensure up-to-date and expanded benefits for today's members of the armed forces and National Guard. Dr. Scott is a member of The Century Association and the Cornell Club of New York.
Recent leadership awards include the 2015 President's Award from the Garden City Chamber of Commerce; inductee, Adelphi University Athletic Hall of Fame, 2015; the 2015 Paul Townsend Spirit of Long Island Award from the Long Island Business Development Council and the Hempstead (New York) IDA and LDC; and the Long Island Association Lifetime Achievement Award, 2015. In 2013, Grant-Thornton dedicated its annual "State of Higher Education" report to his leadership.
He also has been named one of the 100 Most Influential Long Islanders by Long Island Business News and was recognized with the 2008 Chief Executive Leadership Award by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) District II. He has received numerous additional accolades, including: the Advancement for Commerce, Industry and Technology Award for Distinguished Service in the Field of Higher Education; the Raoul Wallenberg Humanitarian Leadership Award; the David Award for Community Service and excelling in one's profession from Networking Magazine; the Long Island Achievement Award from Public Relations Professionals of Long Island; and the Outstanding Paper Award for Excellence from Emerald Group Publishing, Ltd. in 2003, among others. In 2010, he was named an honorary alumnus of Adelphi University.
New York's Adelphi University is a nationally ranked, doctoral research university where students succeed by gaining the skills, knowledge and exposure to thrive as professionals and active citizens in an interconnected and fast-paced global society. Today, nearly 8,000 students from 38 states and 46 countries pursue degrees in person and online through Adelphi's eight distinguished schools and programs—the College of Arts and Sciences, the Gordon F. Derner Institute of Advanced Psychological Studies, the Honors College, the Robert B. Willumstad School of Business, the Ruth S. Ammon School of Education, University College, the College of Nursing and Public Health and the School of Social Work. Chartered in 1896, Adelphi is known for offering a personalized education—one in which students are mentored by talented and committed faculty members and readily find opportunities to initiate, innovate, explore and understand. With dynamic learning hubs on Long Island, in Manhattan and in the Hudson Valley, Adelphi serves communities, both regionally and globally, through the research and practice of its faculty, the collaborative initiatives undertaken by its centers and programs, the staging of distinguished cultural events and, most essentially, the education of future leaders and informed citizens.

On 22 July 2016, during the early morning hours, Albania's parliament adopted a long-awaited judicial reform, after 18 months of technical work and days of tense and political negotiations. Changing 46 articles of the 1998's constitution, the judicial reform package adopted by Albania's parliament on Friday is one of the most radical changes in legislation that the country has seen in 25 years.
The Albanian Constitution was approved in 1998. Since then it has been amended three times: first in 2007 in order to extend the office mandate of the local government bodies. The second amendment, which is more significant, occurred in 2008, to the effect of changing the way of election of the President of the Republic, the procedure for the vote of confidence of the government, and the office mandate of the Prosecutor General. The third amendment in 2012 reduced the immunity of senior state officials against criminal prosecution.
In the 18-year period of its application, the Constitution has generally managed to ensure the functioning of a democratic state in Albania, although failures have not been missing. Thus, for instance, the '98 Constitution did not manage to insulate independent institutions against political majorities and to ensure a true and effective supervision by the Parliament over the Government. Its most significant failure, however, was its inability to establish an independent, accountable, and efficient justice system ...Zum vollständigen Artikel

You say "potato," I say "focus group"
There's one phenomenon you really should be prepared for when you introduce the idea of usability tests in your organization…
Seriously. This really happens. All the time.
The problem is that a lot more people are familiar with focus groups than with usability tests. So sometimes no matter how often you correct them (politely and patiently, of course), they'll still refer to your upcoming usability tests as…focus groups.
The good news is that as soon as you get them to actually come and observe a test, the difference becomes clear and the problem goes away. But until then, it can be disconcerting. And sometimes amusing.
Make sure you have your 30-second elevator pitch explanation of the difference down pat, something like
Usability tests are about watching people actually try to use what we're building, so we can detect and fix the parts that confuse or frustrate them.
Focus groups are about having people talk about things, like their opinions about our products, their past experiences with them, or their reactions to new ideas that we show them.
So the main difference is that in usability tests, you watch people actually use things, instead of just talk about them."

Not yet. However, I believe that --with-extra-charsets is a necessary condition, though I am not sure that it is a necessary and sufficient condition (but I expect so). Please read: http://www.mnogosearch.org/board/message.php?id=6350 Note that Japanese (and Chinese) has "The Problem 2" (no spaces between words) and need the newer version of mnoGoSearch with ChaSen, as you wrote. However, I expect Korean will be fully fixed by --with-extra-charsets. I also expect that Japanese and Chinese words which occasionally appear independently (i.e., separated by spaces or HTML tags) will be able to be searched. I thought about testing it but I don't have enough time to study database, because I am entirely new on database. (Also, I could not test another etc/index.<lang>.htm problem because search.cgi in klecker:~/public_html didn't work well and I don't know why. It may be because of apache's configuration.) --- Tomohiro KUBOTA <email@example.com> http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/

Department SpotlightWhitworth Student Learns Conflict-Resolution Skills at International Symposium
In the midst of escalating violence throughout the world, Whitworth junior Benjamin Metcalf will travel to The Hague, The Netherlands, this summer to develop conflict- resolution and -prevention skills at the seventh annual international student symposium hosted by the Institute for International Mediation and Conflict Resolution.
The four-week symposium on negotiation and conflict resolution will take place July 20- Aug. 17, 2002, and will expose Metcalf, an economics major with political science and psychology minors, to multicultural discussion about the dynamics and prevention of deadly conflict.
"It was a tremendously competitive seminar to be accepted for, and Ben's selection speaks volumes of him," says Whitworth Psychology Professor James Waller, author of the book, Becoming Evil: How Ordinary People Commit Genocide and Mass Killing, published this year by Oxford University Press.
A resident of West Linn, Ore., Metcalf transferred to Whitworth last year from the University of Colorado in Boulder.
"Through experiences I had last year training with the Naval ROTC at Colorado and in Dr. Waller's Introduction to Holocaust and Genocide Studies course, I found a passion in my heart to learn, understand, and one day, work toward both preventing and stopping deadly conflict," says Metcalf, who is especially interested in learning the process of healing victims' emotional and psychological wounds in the aftermath of mass conflict.
The symposium in The Netherlands will provide Metcalf access to an international network of conflict-resolution professionals who will help him develop a diplomatic and theoretical foundation to prevent and resolve conflict. When he returns to the United States, Metcalf can share with his community the skills he learned at the symposium.
"This summer symposium is an excellent way for Ben to develop his passion for healing and reconciliation after ethno-political conflict such as genocide, mass killing, war and other forms of collective violence," Waller says.
The Institute for International Mediation and Conflict Resolution works in partnership with Erasmus University of Rotterdam and the Elliot School of International Affairs at George Washington University. Program faculty include scholars, negotiation and mediation experts, current and former diplomats, and conflict-resolution specialists.
"The caliber of students attending this symposium is high, and I feel very honored to have this opportunity," Metcalf says.

(Luke Miller) We are currently in the middle of a mass awakening which is happening on multiple levels all over the globe. Sometimes it can be hard to see what is happening with the constant distractions from media, advertising and constant disinformation put out by the propaganda machine. However I am fortunate enough to see the world from a different viewpoint with the work I do, and I see a mass awakening on a local and global scale. There are many indications of this mass awakening 5 of which I have outlined below:
Related The Global Awakening and How You are Part of the Solution
by Luke Miller, April 12th, 2017
1. Rebellion
People are rebelling! Small scale rebellion such as questioning the government's movements did not exist on the scale it does now until recent times, now the cracks are starting to appear in the regime that keeps us fighting amongst ourselves and people want answers. Mid scale rebellion such as protests, petitioning and boycotting are becoming very common across the globe with the pipeline being built at Standing Rock being a central point for many people all over the world to come and stand in solidarity. High scale rebellion such as groups organising revolutionary acts are now also coming together- the Icelandic and Egyptian revolution are 2 recent examples of the people uprising.
In the UK, the US and all over the globe we are fed up with being lied too. It is not a 100% smooth transition, and unfortunately many activist and change makers are arguing amongst themselves. However, one thing I think the majority can agree upon is we all want equality. Currently we have a financial system that breeds inequality and creates competition between the working classes, while the most wealthy members of society hoard all the money, we don't need to take this and the mere acknowledgement of this is a step in the right direction.
Related Let us Gather to be the Change and Stand up to the Bullies of Freedom | No Matter Who Wins the Election, The People Who Are Not Elected Will Stay in Control
2. Holding Up The Mirror
The world as we know it is falling to pieces! Our rainforest is being cut down. The oceans are polluted. We still have slaves over the globe working so we can consume more than we will ever need. We vote in liars over and over again. We have been complicent in the corruption and supported it by paying taxes. It is okay, because often it is the not knowing that keeps us complicent. However we are no longer ignorant, and if we choose to keep empowering this system we are at worse repressing our feelings about what is happening and at best choosing not to care. This is our test, the mirror is being held up in characters such as Donald Trump, he and many others are showing us what we have collectively become and we no longer need to live this lie! Ignorance is bliss, yet denial is slow torture.
3. Seeing The World As It Is
With the last 2 points in mind, we are starting to see things as they are. There are more activist groups standing up to the atrocities than ever before and it is so easy to get involved in a movement should you want too.
We now have ecovillages popping up all over the globe, localised farmers markets and more people moving towards resource shared living. This has become apparent with companies such as Uber and Airbnb- these companies may not be in it for the community, but they have arisen as a result of a demand for the sharing of resources. We have had a collective consumerist mindset for a very long time, and while this mindset is still fully alive, many are moving towards an understanding that we do not all need to own so much stuff to be able to live a good lifestyle.
4. Synchronicity
Having conversations with such a large group of people has really opened my eyes to how many are experiencing synchronistic events and unfoldings. Synchronicity is when 2 or more things come together in what modern day society would call a coincidence- eg thinking of someone and they call. This is manifesting in numerological codes, the right people showing up at the right time to help with projects/ideas and things just magically falling into place.
Related The Five Stages of Awakening, and More on the Final Stage of the Spiritual Warrior by Justin
Synchronicity is not just a spiritual phenomenon, it can be explained by science too through something called Quantum Entanglement, if you believe in the big bang birthing the earth, then the theory states we were all just one single particle at one point of existence. Quantum Entanglement is the physical phenomena in which particles split, but are entangled on the microscopic level- meaning if you alter 1 particle the other will be altered regardless of separation and distance. So the universe at one point was a single particle, which has been diluted in many ways, created different forms of life and existence, but we are all still that single particle. This means some of us may be more entangled than others and could explain why these magical synchronistic events occur.
Some of the most popular articles I have written are on this subject and it is amazing to me how many people are simultaneously experiencing these events, if this is you, it is okay, many who are sensitive enough are also feeling it. READ MORE ON SYNCHRONICITY HERE
5. Return To Spiritual Practice
All modern day science has its roots in alchemy which is a philosophical, spiritual and physical art form which has the goal of transmuting substances into a purer form. All the advances we are now making are born from this practice.
The image below also shows the resemblance of the Mayan pyramids to a computer chip. We are currently using ancient sacred spiritual knowledge in the most unbelieveable of ways.
Not only that- we are collectively moving towards move spiritual practice such as Yoga and Meditation. These ancient art forms are now becoming commonplace and even being practiced in schools and prisons to help with focus.
Some of these practices have definitely been commercialized and capitalised upon in some cases losing the essence of the original practice, however I think this has been a necessary process for getting information out in the open. It may not seem like much when someone shares an inspiring meme on facebook, however those words can often be enough to brighten up someone's day, and this is how we move forward by realising we are all that original particle, we all share that in common and when anyone else on this planet feels pain, we all feel it, but not only that we all have the ability to heal it.
It is time to rebel, but when I say rebel I don't mean go out in the streets causing chaos, that kind of rebellion is the exact divide and conquer strategy that got us in this mess in the first place. You rebel by doing the right thing, even when no one is looking. You rebel by standing up and voicing your opinion when you see injustice. We rebel by uniting in the face of adversity and saying we will no longer be divided by a small group of people who think they deserve everything at our expense! We are going through this mass awakening together, the real enemy is greed! We rebel by giving! Please share this article! Much love!

We focus on teaching you the tools to become your own authority on the truth, gaining self-mastery, sovereignty, and freedom in the process. We want each of you to become your own leaders and masters of personal discernment, and as such, all information should be vetted, analyzed and discerned at a personal level.
