5.2.6 Appointment and Role of Independent Reviewing Officers
- Appointment of the Independent Reviewing Officer (IRO)
- Extended Role of the IRO
- Referral to CAFCASS
- Key Changes to the IRO Function from 1 April 2011
- Role of the IRO in Relation to Children Subject to Care Proceedings
- Duty of Social Worker to keep IRO Informed
1. Appointment of the Independent Reviewing Officer (IRO)
If a Local Authority is looking after a child, it must appoint an Independent Reviewing Officer (IRO) for that child's case. The name of the IRO and his/her contact details must be recorded on the child's case record.
The IRO must be appointed to the child's case and meet the child before the first Looked After Review and, as a matter of good practice, should be appointed within the first five working days.
Sibling groups, whether or not placed together, should have the same IRO, except where conflict of interest between siblings makes this inappropriate or the size of the sibling group makes this unmanageable.
The child should be given notification of his/her IRO, along with details about how to make contact with him/her. This could be by email or text. If the child is only informed verbally, then the date that s/he was given this information must be placed on the case record.
The IRO should be allocated for the duration that the child is looked after and should continue as the IRO if a child returns to care of the same Local Authority at a later date, if reasonably practicable.
Where a mother and/or father and their child are looked after, the child should have a different IRO.If the IRO leaves the employment of the Local Authority, or for any other reason stops being the IRO for a particular child, s/he should introduce the new IRO to the child in person.
2. Extended Role of the IRO
There are now two clear and separate aspects to the function of the IRO: chairing a child's review - see Looked After Reviews Procedure, and monitoring a child's case on an ongoing basis including whether any safeguarding issues arise.
As part of the monitoring function, the IRO also has a duty to identify any areas of poor practice, including general concerns around service delivery (not just around individual children).
The IRO should immediately alert senior managers if any such areas are identified.
The responsibilities of the IRO now include:
- A responsibility to consult the child about his/her Care Plan at each review and at any time that there is a significant change to the Care Plan;
- Ensuring that Care Plans for looked after children are based on a detailed and informed assessment, up to date, effective and provide a real response to each child's needs;
- Identifying any gaps in the assessment process or delivery of service;
- Offering a safeguard to prevent any 'drift' in Care Planning and the delivery of services;
- Monitoring the activity of the Local Authority: that Care Plans have given proper consideration and weight to the child's current views, wishes and feelings and that he/she fully understands the implications of any changes to their Care Plan; and
- Ensuring that, having regard to age and understanding, the child has been informed of the steps he/she may take under the Children Act 1989, and in particular, where appropriate, of:
- The right to apply, with leave, for a Section 8 Order/discharge of a Care Order - if the child wishes to take legal proceedings under the Children Act 1989, the IRO must establish whether an appropriate adult is able and willing to assist the child to obtain legal advice or bring proceedings on his/her behalf, and, if there is no such person, assist the child to obtain such advice;
- The right to access representations/complaints procedures.
- Making sure that the child understands how an advocate could help and his or her entitlement to one.
3. Referral to CAFCASS
IROs have previously had the authority to refer the case of any looked after child to CAFCASS if they are of the view that the child's human rights have been breached and all attempts to resolve the matter have been exhausted. The scope for such referrals is now extended.
The IRO now has the authority to refer a case to CAFCASS if he/she 'considers it appropriate to do so'.
The IRO must consider whether it is appropriate to refer a case to CAFCASS if:
- In his/her opinion, the Local Authority has failed in any significant respect to prepare the child's Care Plan; review the child's case or effectively implement any decision in consequence of a review; or are otherwise in breach of their duties to the child in any material respect; and
- Having drawn this to the attention of persons of appropriate seniority in the Local Authority, the issues have not been addressed to IRO's satisfaction within a reasonable period of time.
4. Key Changes to the IRO Function from 1 April 2011
This shows the changes introduced by the Care Planning, Placement and Case Review (England) Regulations 2010 ('the Regulations').
|Statutory provision
|Key change
|Section 25A(1) 1989 Act
|When a child first becomes looked after, a named individual must be appointed by the Local Authority as the IRO for the child.
|The intention is that each looked after child should have a named IRO to provide continuity in the oversight of the case and to enable the IRO to develop a consistent relationship with the child.
|Section 25B(1)(a) 1989 Act
|IRO to monitor the Local Authority's performance of its functions in relation to the child's case.
|This duty extends the IRO's monitoring role, which was previously confined to the Local Authority's functions in respect of the review. The intention is to give the IRO a more effective independent oversight of the child's case and ensure that the child's interests are protected.
|Section 25B(1)(c) 1989 Act
|IRO to ensure that the Local Authority give due consideration to any views expressed by the child.
|This requirement is intended to reinforce the Local Authority's duty under section 22(4) and (5) of the 1989 Act to ascertain and give due consideration to the wishes and feelings of the child when making any decision with respect to the child.
|Regulation 36(2) of the Regulations
|IROs have the authority to adjourn review meetings if they feel that the process would be unproductive.
|This new flexibility is meant to prevent the meeting becoming a 'tick box', exercise. So, for example the IRO might use this flexibility because there is a lack of key documentation or because the child has not been consulted about the purpose of the review.
|Regulation 36(1)(b) of the Regulations
|IROs must speak in private with each child prior to each review so that the IRO personally establishes the child's wishes and feelings about the issues to be covered at the Care Planning meeting.
|This requirement is intended to ensure that the child is properly consulted on matters relating to his/her care and is given the time to contribute to the content of the meeting.
|Section 25B (3) 1989 Act
|Referral by an IRO of a case to CAFCASS should no longer be seen a last resort, but can be considered at any time.
|The intention of this change is to reinforce the authority of the IRO to challenge poor practice around the child's case.
5. Role of the IRO in Relation to Children Subject to Care Proceedings
The IRO will need to consider together with the Children's Guardian what communication is necessary in order to promote the best possible Care Planning process for each child.
As soon as the IRO has been appointed to a child subject to proceedings:
- The IRO should provide the Local Authority legal adviser with the name of the IRO and with his/her contact details; and
- The Children's Guardian should be advised of each review meeting and invited, where appropriate;
- The Local Authority legal adviser and the Children's Guardian should receive a copy of each review record.
The IRO should ensure that s/he is in discussion with the Children's Guardian at intervals, as is appropriate for each child's case and that the topics of discussion include:
- The wishes and feelings of the child;
- The current Care Plan;
- Whether details of the Care Plan are subject to a formal dispute resolution process and if so details of this;
- Any complaints that have been received about the case; and
- Any issues raised in Court in relation to the implementation of the current Care Plan.
6. Duty of Social Worker to keep IRO Informed
The Social Worker must inform the IRO of significant changes/events in the child's life including:
- Any proposed change of Care Plan, for example arising at short notice in the course of the proceedings following directions from the Court;
- Where agreed decisions from the review are not carried out within the specified timescale;
- Major changes to the contact arrangements;
- Changes of allocated Social Worker;
- Any safeguarding concerns involving the child which may lead to enquiries being made under Section 47 of the 1989 Act ('child protection enquiries') and outcomes of child protection conferences or other meetings that are not attended by the IRO;
- Complaints from or on behalf of the child, parent or carer;
- Unexpected changes in the child's placement provision which may significantly impact on placement stability or safeguarding arrangements;
- Significant changes in birth family circumstances for example births, marriages or deaths which may have a particular impact on the child;
- If the child is charged with any offence leading to referral to youth offending services, pending criminal proceedings and any convictions or sentences as a result of such proceedings;
- If the child is excluded from school;
- If the child has run away or is missing from an approved placement;
- Significant health, medical events, diagnoses, illnesses, hospitalisations or serious accidents; and
- Panel decisions in relation to permanency.

Soldiers remember 9/11 during AF half marathon
Photos and story by Spc. Lisa A. Cope
13th SC(E) public affairs
JOINT BASE BALAD, Iraq — Roughly 600 hundred runners participated in the Air Force Half Marathon Sept. 11, at Holt Stadium on Joint Base Balad, Iraq.
Staff Sgt. Peter F. Galan, the noncommissioned officer in charge of the reception, replacement, return to duty, rest and recuperation, and redeployment/casualty operations in the finance operations cell for the 13th Sustainment Command (Expeditionary), and Staff Sgt. Travis Donmoyer, a technical engineering NCO for the 13th SC(E), trained together for two months to prepare for the half marathon.
Galan, a Wittier, Calif. native, and Donmoyer, an Annville, Pa. native, completed the 13-mile run in 1 hour 49 minutes.
Galan said they have a similar running pace and push each other to be better.
"We said we were going to finish together and we finished together," said Galan.
Galan and Donmoyer started running together in January, mostly 5Ks, and started training for the half marathon in July. They started with smaller distances of 2 to 3 miles and gradually worked their way up to the full distance, said Donmoyer.
"A good way to motivate each other is talking smack," said Galan. "It's all in good fun and it keeps us going."
At 8 a.m., while some participants were still running, a Sept. 11, 2001 remembrance ceremony, including prayer and a moment of silence, was held at Holt Stadium.
Galan said he was already serving when the Pentagon and World Trade Center were attacked.
"I was on my way to Kuwait for a rotation when the towers got hit," said Galan.
Donmoyer said the attacks contributed to his decision to join the military.
"I enlisted in the Army exactly a week after 9/11," said Donmoyer. "I don't think anyone out here can say it doesn't mean something to them."
Runners take off from the starting line at 5 a.m. Sept. 11, during the Air Force Half Marathon at Holt Stadium on Joint Base Balad, Iraq.

Acting Sjt McGrath, 28, from 2nd Bn The Rifles, died in an explosion while on foot patrol in Gereshk district, central Helmand province, on Sept 16.
After a private ceremony for his family at RAF Lyneham in Wiltshire, a hearse carrying his coffin led the familiar procession through the nearby town of Wootton Bassett, where hundreds turned out to pay their respects.
Among them was Sgt Phil Reed, a close friend of Acting Sjt McGrath, who was married with four children — three sons and a daughter who was born in June after his deployment to Afghanistan.
"He was a lovely guy. He was really fit, very keen and eager. He was quite frustrating, as he beat me at everything," said Sgt Reed, who served with Acting Sjt McGrath in the Royal Green Jackets in Northern Ireland. "He had two goals in life, to have a big family and do well in the Army. He achieved both."
Acting Sjt McGrath's former squadron leader at the Air Training Corps (ATC) cadets in High Wycombe, Bucks, was also in the crowd. Sqd Ldr John Hollings, retired, said: "I'm here to honour Stuart McGrath, who I knew at 13 years of age, when he came to the Air Training Corps at High Wycombe and said he'd like to join the Army. I asked him 'Why are you at the ATC then?' And he said he wanted to learn all about military life. He stayed with us until he was 17.
"Stuart brings back memories. I can remember a few times when he stood in front of my desk on a disciplinary matter and you could see a smile on his face saying 'You got me this time, sir, but you won't the next'. He had that attitude, he was a likeable rogue."
Acting Sjt McGrath, the 216th British serviceman to die in Afghanistan, was born in Princes Risborough, Bucks.
His wife, Emma, said: "Stuart was a loving husband, amazing father, son, brother, cousin and a friend to many. We are all so very proud of him and what he achieved. He died doing a job he loved. He is our hero and we will never forget him."
Tributes were also paid yesterday to Pte Gavin Elliott, 19, of 2nd Bn The Mercian Regiment, who was shot in Babaji district in Helmand Province earlier this month.
Friends and comrades lined the streets of his home village of Woodsetts, South Yorks, for his funeral. He was described as a "soldiers' soldier", "my best friend" and a "hero".

Anyways, all I can say is GW2 is one of the most lush, fun, and epic games I have ever played. I cannot get enough of this. I can't say you'll love it, and I can't say it'll be one of your favs, but I can 100% guarantee it will help wash the sour taste of D3 from your mouth.
Highly recommended.

Is there a general consensus as to what the most up-to-date skill tool is? Gotta experiment a bit.
Completed CM explorable fully. Line one (asura) is bugged at one point where mobs just keeps respawning, you can hug the wall and avoid them tho.(this is in the cave after the boss in the barn). The area specificly is in the "hammerhead" of the cave, you need to stay left and run under the scaffolding.
Line2 is the easiest, didn't have any issues.
Line3 is bonkers, mobs with 5elites and 6normal toons in 2areas.
Imo the expl mode (of atleast CM) is only harder in regards to trash. Bosses aren't a whole lot different/harder, to the point that you have to use elites on trash and can solo bosses (if you have enough time).
Anyone else wants to share an oppinion on this?
Some annoyances.
People refuse to play differently. We needed heavy aoe and wars decided to keep running with a rifle
People don't realise you can switch skills out of combat :'(
People only run builds that benefit them (signet war instead of banners/shouts) :''(
People tell you that the game isn't ment to be played in a certain way if you try to give some simple, good mannered advice :'''(

Just spotted these on the game status update...
Tonight's Update
We'll fix the issue with parties not staying together as they travel into dungeons.
We'll add an option to stop queueing for your home world, for players who want to remain on an overflow server indefinitely without being asked.
We'll add an option to report an account for sending spam or otherwise inappropriate in-game mail. Edit: This option will be added in tomorrow night's update, not tonight's update.
I really like these three.
Long live the overflow server The home base of us all ^^. I have no problem whatsoever being there, I just like when there is a lot of events happening. Events > hearts. Make events happen more often.
My part in this story has been decided. And I will play it well.
Yeah, for me it doesn't really matter if I'm on the proper server or the overflow, but the constant pop-up that "the server is ready" is a bit annoying. Unless I have a good reason for wanting to be on the proper server, I'm fine with staying in the overflow.
I have just dinged level 80 (hurray) and now im totally lost, I have no clue what to do next :S
Crafting...guys, im in love with this games crafting. It's like....amazing. Idc what people say, i think crafting is one of it's best aspects.
I hope you haven't forgotten my role in this little story. I'm the leading man. You know what they say about the leading man? He never dies.
If you give in to your impulses in this world, the price is that it changes your personality in the real world. The player and character are one and the same.
Side note: Does anyone know where i can find a good weaponsmithing guide or tell me what i should focus on when lvling up weaponsmithing?
Just levled 80 on my guardian, anyone have an idea where I can get some starter gear for Orr? Got around 15 gold to spend, already bought a nice greatsword for 6 gold.

PRESS RELEASE: When Fluoridation Ends, So Do Cavities
Fluoride May Not Prevent Cavities, and Can Cause Health Problems
By Mary Shomon, About.com Guide
Updated December 15, 2003
About.com Health's Disease and Condition content is reviewed by our Medical Review Board
Wednesday January 24, 2001 —Cavity rates declined in several cities that stopped water fluoridation, new studies report, contradicting American Dental Association (ADA) predictions, according to Fluoride Action Network.
Fluoride added to over 62% of US water supplies is supposed to reduce tooth decay but these six studies from dental journals show it hasn't and, in fact, may have increased the likelihood of rotten choppers.
- "No increase in caries (cavities) was found in Kuopio (Finland) 3 years after the discontinuation of water fluoridation," according to Caries Research (1). In fact, when Kuopio was compared to a similar never fluoridated Finnish town, cavity rates in both towns either remained the same or decreased six years after fluoridation was stopped in Kuopio.
- Seven years after fluoridation ended in LaSalud, Cuba, cavities remained low in 6 to 9 year olds, decreased in 10 to 11 year-olds, significantly decreased in 12 to 13 year olds, while caries-free children increased dramatically, reports Caries Research (2).
- East German scientists report, "following the cessation of water fluoridation in the cities Chemnitz (formerly Karl-Marx-Stadt) and Plauen, a significant fall in caries prevalence was observed," according to Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology (3). Additional surveys in the formerly-fluoridated towns of Spremberg and Zittau found. "Caries levels for the 12-year-olds of both towns significantly decreased… following the cessation of water fluoridation."
- Not only did decay rates remain stable during an 11-month fluoridation break in Durham, NC, between September, 1990, and August, 1991 but dental fluorosis declined in children born during that period, according to the Journal of Dental Research (4)
- In British Columbia, Canada, "the prevalence of caries decreased over time in the fluoridation-ended community while remaining unchanged in the fluoridated community," reported in Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology. (5)
- In 1973, the Dutch town of Tiel stopped fluoridation. Researchers counted drilled, missing, and filled tooth surfaces (DMFS) of Tiel's 15-year olds, then collected identical data from never-fluoridated Culemborg. DMFS initially increased in Tiel then dipped to 11% of baseline from 1968/69 to 1987/88 while never-fluoridated Culemborg's 15-year-olds had 72% less cavities over the same period, reports Caries Research. (6)
A recently released government report out of Canada (7) shows similar negative results and offers a reason.
Fluoridation was launched in the 1940's when dentists believed fluoride's beneficial effects were achieved internally, through the bloodstream then absorbed inside the teeth. The Canadians report that "this effect is likely to be minor…The evidence for a post-eruptive (topical) effect,… is much stronger."
Therefore, swallowing fluoride doesn't reduce tooth decay but does cause dental fluorosis — white spotted, yellow or brown stained and sometimes pitted teeth.
According to the ADA's website "Dental decay can be expected to increase if water fluoridation in a community is discontinued for one year or more, even if topical products such as fluoride toothpaste and fluoride rinses are widely used."
"Well, science proves the ADA is wrong about the claimed benefits of water fluoridation and they are wrong about the safety of water fluoridation, too" says lawyer Paul Beeber, President, New York State Coalition Opposed to Fluoridation. "Studies have linked fluoridation chemicals to increased blood lead levels, neurological defects, brittle bones, thyroid cancer and more," says Beeber. "It's time for the media to challenge the science that supports water fluoridation and present the truth to the public. We've made it easy for the media to access the medline abstracts via the links below. No more excuses."
Other US government studies and statistics support the findings of these six studies and the Canadian government report. For example, children in fluoridated-since-1945 Newburgh, New York, have no less tooth decay but significantly more dental fluorosis than children from never-fluoridated Kingston, New York, according to Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology June 1999.

Melbourne, Victoria
Tuesday, 15 September 2009
First, may I acknowledge the traditional owners of the land we meet on - and pay my respects to their elders, both past and present.
⢠Susan FrydaâBlackwell, Executive Officer, Ports Australia; ⢠Captain Graham Mapplebeck, International Maritime Organisation; ⢠Distinguished guests; ⢠Ladies and gentlemen.
It is a great pleasure to contribute to this important conference.
By bringing together a wide range of experts and stakeholders, I hope this conference will help both the Government and the private sector respond to the significant maritime security challenges facing us.
I would like to outline some key features of the Rudd Government's approach to offshore maritime security as well as announce some key reforms that we are proposing to improve the legislative framework for Commonwealth offshore law enforcement.
Importance of Maritime Security
Before doing so, however, I think it is worth recalling why maritime security is of such vital importance.
Australia has always been reliant on the sea as a source of communication and trade with the rest of the world. Maritime transport remains the primary means by which Australia conducts its international trade in goods.
In 2007-08, Australia exported over 705 million tonnes of sea freight and imported over 83 million tonnes. Our total international trade by sea was in excess of $300 billion.
Australia's maritime domain is also vital source of natural resources - in particular, natural gas, oil and of course, seafood. Almost all of Australia's known oil and gas deposits are found in our maritime domain.
Indeed, the Bonaparte, Browse and Carnavon Basins off the coast of Western Australia, and the Gippsland Basin off the coast of Victoria account for nearly 95 per cent of our known oil reserves and over 96 per cent of our known natural gas reserves.
The recent announcement of the Gorgon natural gas project illustrates just how significant maritime based resources are to Australia's continuing prosperity.
Of course the oceans are more than just a means of trade and a source of natural resources.
Australia's maritime domain includes some of the most unique ecological systems on earth. This includes of course, the Great Barrier Reef, as well as other features such as the pristine waters surrounding Heard Island and the McDonald Islands. Some 80 per cent of the species found in Australia's southern temperate waters cannot be found anywhere else on earth.
As a surfer and beach lover myself, I can also attest to the importance of Australia's beautiful beaches and breaks.
In short, Australia's coastlines, islands and waters are vital to both Australia's economy and our way of life.
Responsibility for Australian Waters
Traditionally, it was the States that had the primary responsibility for Australia's maritime domain. This only began to change in 1967 when the Commonwealth commenced coastal civil surveillance in our newly declared 12 nautical mile fishing zone.
Over time, the Commonwealth's interest in maritime security grew and its enforcement approach evolved in response to a range of emerging - often global - trends.
These included:
⢠the expansion of international trade; ⢠the increasing use of the sea to smuggle goods and people; ⢠increasing levels of pollution at sea; ⢠the emergence of global terrorism; and ⢠the development of offshore petroleum and natural gas reserves.
The last four decades have been characterised by a growing understanding of the value of the sea's biodiversity and the marine environment generally.
The emerging interest of the Commonwealth in Australia's offshore domain has not been without its controversies.
In 1973, the Commonwealth enacted the Seas and Submerged Lands Act which, amongst other things, provided that sovereignty over the Territorial Sea was vested in and exercisable by the Commonwealth.
The States did not welcome this innovation and challenged the legislation in the High Court, which famously upheld the Commonwealth position in the Seas and Submerged Lands Case.
Subsequently, the Commonwealth, the States and the Northern Territory agreed to the Offshore Constitutional Settlement - a key feature of which was the vesting in the States and the Northern Territory of title to the coastal waters adjacent to their jurisdictions.
This jurisdictional division remains with us today and marks a critical turning point in the maritime roles and responsibilities of the Commonwealth and the States.
Around the same time as these issues were being resolved, the international law of the sea was going through an unprecedented period of development - culminating in the finalisation of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea in 1982.
Australia was an original party to the Convention which was ratified by the Keating Labor Government in October 1994.
The significance of the Law of the Sea Convention should not be underestimated. Indeed, the Secretary-General of the United Nations at the time the Convention was signed described it as 'possibly the most significant legal instrument' of the last century.
The Convention codified and extended existing rights at international law - such as confirming a maximum width for the territorial sea of 12 nautical miles.
It also created significant new rights such as the ability of coastal states to establish a 200 nautical mile exclusive economic zone.
Operational Arrangements
As one would expect, Australia's operational response to maritime security has evolved and developed to meet our expanding interests and jurisdiction.
Initially fragmented and focussed on particular threats, there has been a growing recognition of the need for a flexible, all-hazards approach to maritime security that is reflected in the current operational framework.
This framework dates to the establishment of the Joint Offshore Protection Command - now known as Border Protection Command.
At the centre of this framework are two operational agencies - the Australian Defence Force and the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service. These agencies operate under a common command model - through Border Protection Command - and where appropriate, are assisted by specialist agencies such as the Australian Fisheries Management Authority.
This approach is an excellent example of agencies pooling resources and working together to respond to the wide range of maritime threats. It also ensures we can respond flexibly to new threats as they emerge.
Homeland and Border Security Review
Since coming to office, the Rudd Government has taken significant steps to bolster the effectiveness and ensure the long-term sustainability of this operational framework.
Critically, one of the first things that the Government did was establish the Homeland and Border Security Review.
The establishment of the review recognised that Australia's approach to national security had developed rapidly in response to a range of events and threats - and it was time to take a strategic look at how things were working and how they could be improved.
The Prime Minister announced the Government's response to the review in his National Security Statement to Parliament in December last year.
In his statement, the Prime Minister emphasised a number of key themes, including:
⢠the need to take an inclusive approach to the idea of national security; ⢠the importance of engaging regionally and globally to address national security threats; and ⢠the need to simplify existing arrangements and improve coordination across agencies.
Significantly, the Prime Minister announced changes to the Australian Customs Service to augment and re-task it with a particular focus on border threats.
Reflecting this new role, the service was renamed the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service. And in this year's Budget, the Government committed an additional $650 million for people smuggling and border protection. This included almost $400 million for maritime and aerial surveillance of Australian waters.
Legal Arrangements
It is widely acknowledged that Australia's operational response to maritime security threats is working well.
While there is always room for improvement, I think it is fair to say that our operational arrangements have now reached a high level of maturity. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the legal framework underpinning those arrangements.
At present there are at least 35 separate Commonwealth Acts that contain maritime enforcement powers. These Acts differ from one another in terms of the types of powers they contain, the form of those powers, and the procedures associated with them.
In short, different Acts have different requirements for the exercise of particular powers.
This has the potential to create:
⢠operational problems for agencies on the water; ⢠legal uncertainty if enforcement action is challenged before the courts; and ⢠policy difficulties in ensuring that enforcement is kept upâtoâdate and consistent.
Maritime Powers Bill
That is why I am today announcing new legislation to consolidate the Commonwealth's maritime enforcement powers into a single Act.
This will bring our legal and operational arrangements into alignment.
The new legislation - to be known as the Maritime Powers Bill - will provide a clear, simple and best-practice set of powers for enforcement at sea.
It will contain the full suite of maritime enforcement powers, including interdiction, boarding, search, arrest and seizure. Operational agencies will not lose any powers that they currently have available to them. Duplicate provisions in other Acts will be repealed.
Significantly, the Bill will provide a mechanism to implement and enforce international agreements that have a maritime enforcement aspect. For example, the Bill will provide a comprehensive regime for Australia to implement its high seas boarding and inspection rights and obligations under regional fisheries agreements.
The Bill will also provide for the implementation and enforcement of decisions of international bodies such as the United Nations Security Council.
The legislation will be developed with a view to being introduced in the first half of 2010.
This initiative represents a major innovation in the coordination of Australia's maritime enforcement activities and will support the significant advances that have been made in operational capability and coordination.
In closing, I would like to put this proposal in a broader context.
The proposed Maritime Powers Bill reflects a number of key themes that are crucial in the current environment.
First, it will apply to all maritime threats - ensuring a common enforcement approach wherever Australia's interests are threatened.
Second, it will be specifically designed to 'lock in' to international arrangements ensuring Australia can act quickly to enforce its rights or discharge its obligations.
And third, it will significantly simplify existing arrangements and promote coordination between relevant enforcement agencies.
These reforms will place Australia at the international forefront in its approach to maritime enforcement.
They will also strengthen our ability to effectively respond to existing and emerging maritime threats.
Thank you.

A reflection by Lindsey
Much of my personal sense of spirituality has been shaped by various evangelical movements within Christian traditions. When people ask me to describe my spirituality, I'll frequently say something like "evangelical with a small 'e.'" I understand the Gospel of Christ to be fundamentally good news, even the absolute best news to be delivered to this planet. I have a special love for the Gospel of Luke, the book written to present the story of Christ clearly to a Gentile audience. I am grateful for everyone I have met who has helped me learn how to read the Scriptures, to learn from them, and to apply them to my life.
There are certain Scriptures I've heard so often that they pop into my head completely unannounced. When I'm waiting for clarity in a decision, I'll hear, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding." As I take a moment to ponder the Resurrection, my heart leaps into a chorus of "Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered." After I have presented a request to Christ in prayer, my brain reminds me, "His mother said to the servants, 'Do whatever he tells you.'" When I ponder the usefulness of reading the Scriptures, I find myself hearing, "All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work."
As much as there are certain Scriptures that organically spring to mind, there are also certain verses that often get thrown at me. Virtually every LGBT person who is or has been a Christian can talk about run-ins with 6 specific passages. Romans 1 ranks high on the list. What LGBT Christian has not sat down to lunch with a concerned Christian friend who pulls out his or her Bible to "share" these verses:
For this reason God gave them up to degrading passions. Their women exchanged natural intercourse for unnatural, and in the same way also the men, giving up natural intercourse with women, were consumed with passion for one another. Men committed shameless acts with men and received in their own persons the due penalty for their error.
One of the things that always struck me about these lunchtime "heart to hearts" was how rarely the person sharing the verses thought they applied at all to him or her. After all, these verses have made the short list of what you should say when your friend indicates that he or she might be gay. I think it's time to read Romans 1 differently. Specifically, what would happen if people began reading the Bible with the intention of seeing how the Scriptures spoke into their own lives as readers rather than focusing on how they might apply to others?
Throughout history, Scriptures have been abused by assertions that a certain verse applies exclusively to condemn a particular group of people. It's a bit different when you start to consider yourself one of the out-group. I remember being in high school and performing in a passion play at my church. Turning to face the person playing the role of Jesus and shouting "Crucify Him!" caused me to read Matthew 27:25 a bit differently. Matthew 27:25 reads, "All the people answered, 'His blood is on us and on our children!'" This verse historically has been used as a justification that the Jewish people bear a blood-guilt for killing Jesus. I cannot imagine the number of Christians who have used this particular verse in an attempt to justify anti-Semitic behavior.
However, it's possible to read Matthew 27:25 differently. It's possible for us as Christians to reflect on how we need Christ's blood to cover us because we are people who have fallen short of the glory of God. Perhaps we will see how the crowd included those who, not even a week before, had greeted Jesus as a triumphant king. What would happen if we started to search our own hearts for ways that we all too easily reverse our attitudes towards God? My high school youth group showed me that I too could stand in the crowd shouting "Crucify Him!" More than a decade later, I can still play that memory back in full color.
The crowd gathered at the trial was the same crowd as the throng of people greeting Christ with palms shouting Hosanna. This discussion of Matthew 27:25 is relevant to how we might learn to read Romans 1 differently. After all, Romans 1 includes a significant discussion of how people have turned their backs on God: "For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools."
I think all of us would benefit from reflecting on Romans 1:24, which says, " Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves." The lusts of our hearts are many. We thirst for power, prestige, favor, and glory. In these pursuits, we often find ourselves dishonoring our bodies in countless ways. We punish our bodies through fad dieting and the latest exercise trends. We use our bodies to enact violence on other people or on creation. We run on the ever-present hamster wheel of materialism and deny our bodies adequate rest, nourishment, and refreshment. And that's to say nothing about our diverse battles with concerns about sexual purity. Who among us has a perfect record of always honoring the body?
When we truly embrace that all Scripture is useful for teaching, we can see that we need to consider ourselves first among students. None of us can claim to be the head of the class. It can be hard to look at a particular passage and discern, "How does this text speak to my life? How can I possibly share how the Holy Spirit is inspiring me along my journey with Christ?" It's all too easy to read the Scriptures and envision ourselves as the various protagonists: we can emulate Christ as he says, "Go and sin no more," we can be the publican who prays humbly in the temple, and we can be prodigal son who has done the right thing in returning to the house of the father. It's much harder for us to ask the Holy Spirit to show us how we might embody the people who are clearly on the wrong side of God's judgement. How are we the Pharisees who have tied up heavy loads? How are we Judas who has betrayed Christ? And how are we like those who have exchanged the truth of God for a lie?
When we start asking those kinds of questions, we might just start reading Romans 1 a bit differently.

Dan Gurney's historic V 12 Grand Prix Eagle goes back home to Indiana
With the approaching US Grand Prix in Indianapolis, interest is again high in regard to American participation in and contribution to the sport of Formula I in the past and the future. There are many Americans who have made great contributions to Formula I racing as drivers or constructors, but none have combined it in quite the way Dan Gurney did.
To this day he is the only American to win a Formula I Grand Prix in an American car in the modern era (Jimmy Murphy won in a Duesenberg in 1921 before the establishment of the World Championship) and Dan is the only US driver ever in the entire history of the sport to do with a car built , designed and constructed by his own company All American Racers in Santa Ana, Calif.
The victory of the Grand Prix of Belgium at Spa-Francorchamps in 1967 was a milestone.,which is gaining in stature and prestige as time goes by and hopes fade that it could ever be equalled. Due to the enormous resources it would take to mount such an effort today, due to the way Grand Prix racing has evolved and the way drivers pursue their careers, it is quite unlikely that the vision, charisma and perseverance of one man could ever again inspire so many people to launch an effort of such magnitude.
The four Eagle Grand Prix cars which were built by AAR are highly prized collectors items. The Spa winner equipped with a V 12 Gurney Weslake engine, is also called the "Titanium car"on account of its many technical innovations including titanium suspension and headers, and magnesium monocoque skin .With its characteristic Eagle nose..and painted in American racing colors, it was and is considered one of the most beautiful Grand Prix cars of all time. This car has been part of the Miles Collier collection in Florida for the last ten years. The other 3 Eagle Formula I cars are in the Donnington collection in Great Britain,(4 cyl. Cooper Climax), a private collection in Los Angeles (V 12Gurney Weslake) and the Ben Liebert collection in England.(V 12 Gurney Weslake) Vintage racer Ben Liebert is bringing this car over to Indinapolis and will drive it in the classic Grand Prix car exhibition race before the US Grand Prix.
Dan Gurney, whose name is closely linked with the "Indy 500" as a driver (two 2nd places) and constructor (Eagles have won the "Indy 500" three times) and innovator (bringing Colin Chapman and Ford Motor Company to the Speedway in 1963) will be at the US Grand Prix as a guest of "Road and Track" Magazine's celebration "Salute to American Grand Prix Drivers."
For those interested in the complete story of the Eagle F I effort from 1966 through 1968 please check our website www.allamericanracers.com. You will find photos, technical data, complete racing results and personal story by Dan Gurney on this effort. We also highly recommend the wonderful book "American Grand Prix Racing, a Century of Drivers and Cars" by Tim Considine.

The Colorado House Judiciary Committee on Thursday voted unanimously to raise the amounts for which the state can be sued.
If passed, Senate Bill 23 will raise the caps to $990,000 from $600,000 for multiple claims resulting from a single incident, and to $350,000 from $150,000 for an individual claim.
The 10-0 decision, with one representative excused, came after nearly an hour of testimony and discussion. If passed, the bill will apply to all Colorado entities and employees, such as schools, municipalities and libraries.
The bill now moves to the Colorado House for floor debate.
"Over the years I've come to see that the caps need to be adjusted and I'm happy that we're doing it here today," said representative Mike McLachlan, D-Durango, a former state Solicitor General, who defended the caps in court.
McLachlan said that additional elements of sovereign immunity claims need to be addressed, including that plaintiffs, even if they win their case against the state, are still required to pay Colorado's legal fees.
The cap hasn't been raised for a single claim since 1986. For multiple claims, the cap hasn't changed since 1979.
"It's a very modest step forward with respect to governmental immunity," said Bob Gardner, R-Colorado Springs, after Thursday's vote. "I had hoped to do more. I think there are a lot of us in the general assembly that would like to take a more ambitious look at how we do governmental immunity."
The bill emerged from a recommendation by the Lower North Fork Wildfire Commission, which was convened to investigate the deadly blaze that began March 26, 2012. The fire, which began when high winds reignited a state-managed prescribed burn, killed three people and destroyed or damaged at least 27 homes near Conifer. The commission concluded that the fire illustrated "the inadequacy of the current cap, which is $600,000 for any single occurrence, regardless of the number of victims and damages from state negligence."
If the bill passes, it will not be applied to incidents that occured prior to July 1, 2013.
Maureen Ryan, who is suing the city of Steamboat Springs over the 2011 death of her son, Cooper Larsh, 19, at the city-owned Howelsen Hill Ski Area, testified in favor of raising the cap, but also talked about the complexity of pursuing claims against governments.
"Nothing in my background prepared me for my trip down the rabbit hole that is the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act," said Ryan, an adjunct professor at the University of Colorado law school and a former corporate lawyer. "What I have found is that the ability of a private person to sue a Colorado public entity for even the most egregious negligence is a nearly illusory concept."

Rylance 'to join Spielberg film'
Mark Rylance is in talks to star alongside Tom Hanks in Steven Spielberg's Cold War thriller.
The actor has just won a Tony award for his performance in Twelfth Night and could be set to make his move from the stage to the big screen, according to Variety.
He is negotiating over a role in the as-yet-untitled thriller which follows James Donovan, an American attorney enlisted by the CIA during the Cold War to slip behind the Iron Curtain and try to get a pilot released, who was captured when his spy plane was shot down over Russia.
Details of Mark's potential character are not known yet, but Saving Mr Banks actor Tom is set for the lead role and production is expected to begin this autumn.
The Coen brothers have written the latest script and Spielberg is planning to direct the film before he begins work on his adaptation of Roald Dahl book The BFG.
As well as his win for Twelfth Night, Mark was also nominated at this year's Tonys for Richard III.

Will Rowdy need a high initiative roll to explain this cartoon?
Will Rowdy need a high initiative roll to explain this cartoon?
This show should have been made for syndication. The reason He-Man, Mask, Transformers, and TMNT were put on afternoon and weekend syndication was because it was the only way to for the characters to perform in the way they were envisioned. Parent's groups like Action for Children's Television had already done their damage by the early 1980s, so I'm sure it was more so CBS's standards and practices department that was telling the producers what they could do with D&D.
Of course I haven't seen Blackstar which aired on CBS a year before, so maybe I'll have to wait for your inevitable review of that before you agree with my thought.
The D&D cartoon came out in 1983, which was just when the toon-syndication boom was starting out, so it's probably not a surprise that the makers of the show thought network TV was still the best way to go at the time.
Sheesh, this is the second time I've learned that network censors banned pointy objects in a cartoon, with Janine's glasses in Real Ghostbusters being the first. Was there a rulebook of all this stuff that the network censors read from?
That's understandable, especially since Marvel animation was successful with Spiderman and His Amazing Friends which was on NBC at the time. Still, given the newly emerging possibilities they could have had a better product if they had waited a couple of years to produce the show.
I've read from other materials that Tiamat was pretty accurate to the games with only one error. Tiamat suppose to be a chick. Still a funny error and it was nice to see your written article for Mr. Enter.
1. I believe one episode explained that the passage of time differed between the kid's world and the realm, thus from their parent's point of view they might be missing, but not for long.
2. Honestly I'd say the fans of this show get a better deal than Alf fans in that Reaves actually gave the script outlining the planned finale.
ALF eventually got a conclusion though. This show did not.
I actually have found an upload of the audio drama of that D&D proposed final episode and you know what? I'll take it over that Project ALF movie.
With the exception of a few of the funnier Alf lines in that movie, I agree with you.
Well, I guess that this Theme Park has better lawers than the Fazbear Entertainment…

Nanoscientists Describe Electron Movement through Molecules
ATHENS, Ohio "" Molecular electronics is the ultimate miniaturization of electronics. In this area of research, scientists have been studying the movement of electrons through individual molecules in an effort to understand how they might control and use the process in new technologies. Computers and thousands of other devices could become vastly faster, smaller and more reliable than conventional transistor-based (wire-based) electronics.
A team of Ohio University and Brazilian physicists has taken another step toward this goal. In the Rapid Communication section of the Sept. 15 issue of the journal Physical Review B, the researchers present a new theory of how electrons interact in a molecule.In the new paper, the team describes what happens to electrons when scientists put two molecules between electrodes, which are bits of tiny conducting wire. Existing theoretical models of molecular electronics take into account that electrons avoid each other, according to Nancy Sandler, Ohio University assistant professor of physics and astronomy. The scientists report that molecular vibrations, in addition to strong electronic interactions, will produce unexpected "transport channels." The electrons move through the molecule while the molecule vibrates, said Sergio Ulloa, co-author of the paper and Ohio University professor of physics and astronomy.
"The electrons go through the molecule like a pinball and they leave all the bells ringing (atoms moving) as they pass by," said Ulloa, adding that this model focuses on the general behavior of short molecules. Other scientists studying molecular electronics, he noted, are using longer molecules, such as DNA or carbon-based molecules, to serve as longer "wires" or connectors.
The collaborators on this project "" which included Ulloa, Sandler, Brazilian exchange student Edson Vernek and professor Enrique Anda of the PontifÃcia Universidade Cat³lica in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil "" describe another fascinating capability of the electrons: "The electrons "Ëremember' not only where they are, but where they have been," Ulloa said. "When the oscillations of the molecules are "Ëjust right,' the electrons are either pushed through more efficiently or trapped momentarily in the molecule "" a phenomenon physicists call "ËRabi-assisted tunneling.' The electrons can really get trapped, like in the pinball machine."
This electron "trapping" could make molecular transmission even more efficient and help develop molecular switches and other applications.
Molecular electronics is a booming field in physics right now. Scientists have been able to manipulate molecules for only last 15 years, Sandler said, and it may be at least another 20 years before consumers see molecular technology in commercially available devices.
The research collaboration between Ohio University, the PontifÃcia Universidade Cat³lica in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and the Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina, is supported by the National Science Foundation through the project "Correlation Effects and Transport in Nanostructured Materials." The Brazilian Coordination of Improvement of the Personnel of Superior Level (CAPES) supported Vernek's visit to Ohio University.

Essentially we see opportunistic caching products use heuristics such as detecting a '?' query fragment and in some extreme cases the presense of the substring /cgi-bin/ to assess the cachebility of a response; rather than do the right thing and rely on get-if-modified; Expire and other decent headers.

'#' seems wrong; this is not a fragment(*); / carries local path semantics and ? is too close to 'beeing interpreted by the resource' rathern than be a resource in its own right. If you see the URI as a URI in its own right then perhaps you should treat it as a path segement with parameters (i.e. use the ';') as these are not significant when parsing relative references or ubset caching heuristics nearly as much. Dw. *: and the # URI cannot be carried over standard HTTP as easily; as you'd need to trick standartd fetchers in -not- stripping it off before it goes over the wire.Received on Thursday, 15 July 2004 04:12:12 UTC

Most homeowners know foreclosure is the process a lender goes through to obtain the value of the property that secures a debt. What many homeowners do not know is that letting a home go into foreclosure may not end a homeowner's obligation to pay the debt.
Obligation to debt after foreclosure depends on a number of factors, including whether the debt was a purchase money loan or non-purchase money loan, and whether the foreclosure was a judicial or a non-judicial foreclosure.
In years past when a lender foreclosed on a homeowner the value of the mortgaged property would nearly always exceed the amount loaned, enabling the lender to recover the loan amount plus any foreclosure costs. However, today's market is far from what a lender would call a perfect world.
These days most foreclosures involve properties worth quite a bit less than the mortgages they secure. Compounding this many foreclosed upon homeowners have more than one mortgage holder.
Usually, the current value of the property is lower than the amount owed to just the first lender. Meaning that when the first lender forecloses, all other mortgage holders will be wiped out and lose the security of that home which normally guarantees their money.
Homeowners must recognize that a foreclosure only wipes out the lender's security interest and does not necessarily wipe out their debt.
This is why it is so important for a homeowner to determine the type of loan they have, to know whether or not they may owe money after a foreclosure. Being a realtor, I am not equipped to state California law and recommend that one seek legal council when qualifying property and loan types.
With that said, with property values skyrocketing a few years ago, many homeowners refinanced their original loans resulting in new loans being considered non-purchase money loans.
To further complicate things, many homeowners also received stand alone second mortgages and/or home equity lines of credit (HELOC's) which are also generally considered non-purchase money loans. In many cases, homeowners may still owe debt on a non-purchase money loan even after the property goes through foreclosure.
Another thing to be aware of is the difference in a judicial foreclosure versus a non-judicial foreclosure, as they relate to non-purchase money loans. Most of us in California are familiar with the non-judicial foreclosure.
This type involves the recording of a Notice of Default and eventual foreclosure sale. A judicial foreclosure is when the lender brings a lawsuit against the homeowner and asks the court to determine the rights of the parties involved in the foreclosure. Again seek legal council for details.
This brings me to the importance of a short sale versus a foreclosure. One of the most important duties your listing agent has is preparing a complete, lender specific, short sale packet for their lender(s) to review, resulting in a settlement statement for each lender involved.
It is a must that your agent has the experience and knows the difference between an actual settlement statement – stating that their lender(s) will not pursue any remaining balance – versus just receiving a lien release.

text: Ten years after Katrina, New Orleans' transit recovery remains uneven. Bus service remains down 65% while there are now more streetcars lines offering more trips than in 2005. While streetcars remain an historic and iconic part of our transit system, they are costly to install and inflexible in providing service. Federal monies and local bond sales have financed a massive streetcar expansion project which has not been well-integrated into the existing network of bus routes and has actually worsened commutes for some bus riders by forcing them to transfer to the new streetcar to complete their trip.

Do you believe in witchcraft? I don't but I do believe in manipulating people's minds to achieve certain results. That is exactly what happened between Gor Mahia's Tanzanian goalkeeper Ivo Mapunda and Sofapaka players on Tuesday.
Firstly, congratulations to Gor Mahia for winning the Football Kenya Federation President's Cup on Tuesday, qualifying to represent Kenya in next year's Confederations Cup of Africa tournament. What an entertaining game the final was.
Both teams turned up determined to get the victory and I agree with Gor Mahia coach Zdravko Logarusic when he says that it was the greatest game of football, in terms of quality, to be played in Kenya since he arrived on the scene.
Despite both teams being determined, Sofapaka gave a better account of themselves throughout the 90 minutes plus extra time and hit the post on several occasions. Mapunda was also in his element with save after save after save.
Unfortunately for Sofapaka, if you don't score you don't win.
Enter "The Towel".
Ivo Mapunda is ingenious. He played with all of our minds by creating the impression that the towel hanging on his goal net, which looks like all towels that hang on goalkeepers' goal nets, has magical powers. When, at some point in the game, a Sofapaka player removed the towel and threw it on the ground. The keeper got angry and the referee allowed him to pick it up and return it.
Sofapaka striker John Barasa does not miss clear chances, which is why he has won the Golden Boot three times. Even if you don't want to believe in uchawi (witchcraft in KiSwahili), how did John Barasa kick the ball sky-high when faced with an open goal? Eh?
I don't believe in witchcraft, so at the end of the 120 minutes (90 plus extra time) I waited with bated breath for Sofapaka to score their first penalty, for me to dispense with the uchawi notion.
As expected, Mapunda stepped up with his towel, hung it on the net and began dancing across goal the way keepers do before a penalty. When he saved the first one I dismissed it because Sofapaka's Eugene Asike isn't the best penalty taker in the world. When Mapunda made the second save I gasped but said luck does happen.
When Humphrey Mieno stepped forward I told myself, the towel is going down! As Mieno's ball hit the post my husband and I looked at each other in silence for about five seconds… then burst out laughing. Neither of us believe in uchawi so then what was going on?
When we calmed down we discussed the situation and agreed that Mapunda was playing mind games and Sofapaka players fell for it.
The morning after, Mapunda confirmed our suspicions when he went on national radio and said, and I quote: "I played with their (Sofapaka players) minds. It reached a point where they were not playing against me, they were playing against the towel."
I'm smiling about all this but I feel a bit sorry for Sofapaka for giving Gor Mahia the game of the season and then giving in to mind games. Coach David Ouma was also smiling at the end of the match, saying he couldn't complain at all about how his Sofapaka team had played.
I could and I did. Sofapaka should have concentrated on the game and not focused on what "uchawi" Mapunda had or had not brought. It cost them continental football.
#MapundaTowel was trending on twitter for a few hours on Tuesday night and we all had a great laugh about it but I'm not sure it's a tale that Sofapaka players will be proud to tell their grand children.
The mind is a very powerful thing and if you can manipulate it you control that person. Just ask Ivo Mapunda!

I have an excellent interview for you today with an artist I've admired ever since I saw Joy post about her awhile back. She's amazing, and I hope you enjoy a glimpse into her artistry.
The Book Vase
1. Please tell us about yourself.
I am an artist and a designer from Hong Kong.
The Golden Set
2. What challenges have you overcome as an artist?
Being an artist in Hong Kong is a very difficult thing. Because Hong Kong has a limited market for art. That was why I started my paper product brand two years ago. I turned my artworks and drawings into products, which I can sustain my living by selling them, and at the same time I can still draw and create.
3. I love your tiny papercuts. Was there anything in particular that inspired you to do them?
At first, i was drawing very tiny lines and shapes. After that i started to think, if using the method of papercutting, the shapes will be more solid and sharp. So, I made drafts and did some test for it. I used very normal type of found color paper. Some colors of the paper is quite unusual to me and this somehow inspired me about the color combination.
snow scenes I and II // acrylic on canvas
4. It's interesting seeing your work evolve…where do you feel like your art is headed?
I actually discovered that, I am being more and more interested in craftmanships. I started to like doing one small thing with a lot of steps. In the production process, I enjoy seeking the "correct" method on each step. I treasure traditional craftmanships and I would like to do something contemporary while taking inspiration from these craftmanships.
Handpainted Handkercheifs
5. You are such a diverse artist – block printing, painting, photography, book binding to your latest work of creating geometric envelopes with metallic paper. Do you feel that you are journeying to find your niche or do you embrace many artforms so you won't get bored?
You are right. I cannot define if I am really trying to find a suitable media for myself, or just I am not satisfied in only one media. I think, in this moment, I am still open to every media while ideally, I am hoping all things created by me will be able to reflect my personal aesthetics.
6. Obviously you draw lots of inspiration from nature and animals in your work. What are other sources of inspiration for you?
Nature and animals.
The Mountain Scene II // reduction blockprint on xuan paper
7. Lastly, tell us something random or quirky about yourself!
I am starting to become excited because my hair is getting longer. I can always plait my hair before going out!
Thank you Furze!!

As I've written before, we Hispanics are known for our fierce work ethic.
Think of immigrants slaving away at grueling tasks that native-born Americans refuse to do. Or consider that last year, "the number of Latino entrepreneurs grew more than white, black, and Asian entrepreneurs."
Yes, we sure like to work. It's unfortunate, then, that so many Hispanics who reach old age have nothing to show for it. This is because "fewer than half of … Latino workers have retirement plans on the job, leaving the vast majority of them with no savings designated for their golden years."

Provides introduces more problems than it solves, so i would avoid that too - just remember that Provides can't be versioned… (behavior is undefined). If we have a more detailed look: Conflicts doesn't tell us anything useful - beside that the user might loose functionality, so package managers will try to guess which of the two is the "better" alternative considering the current system state (Same for Breaks which can't be upgraded). Replaces just tells use that some files will be overridden - nothing about the same functionality and some files are not all files. Provides just tells use that they have a similar interface like we have e.g. for a mail-transport-agent but they are not considered to be completely equal (e.g. configuration) -- or are exim4 and postfix really the same? Also beside that the package manager might be a bit confused, it confuses maybe the user who will see that his beloved package oldname will be removed in an upgrade to a new version of debian! Its far better in this case to leave the "cruft" behind until the user is in the mood to remove this stuff and can realize that newname is now the provider of his beloved program. (S)he will have a hard time to see it in an operation which changes thousands of packages as a dist-upgrade will do… So in my eyes doing everything in one step is not always the best solution… Earlier revisions of this wikipage included also 'disappearing' of packages which dpkg seems to support for a while and APT does it now in squeeze, but i am not sure what the best practice is regarding this. Especially as most (if not all) frontends doesn't show the disappeared packages which could again confuse a user… Best regards David Kalnischkies

Reviews: Roger Ebert | IMDb External Reviews | Rotten Tomatoes 66% | Metacritic 55%
In the main, I respect Kevin Smith and have enjoyed several of his acting and directorial works including Clerks (1994), Chasing Amy (1997) and Clerks II (2006). But I hated Dogma (1999) and his excessive use of over-the-top bathroom humour.
Zack and Miri Make a Porno had some funny moments and some tender moments. But, alas, it had too many cringe-worthy, putting my hands in front of my eyes, moments. I've outgrown Kevin Smith.
I'm tiring too, of Seth Rogen it seems. I enjoyed him in The 40 Year Old Virgin (2005) but wasn't terribly impressed with him in either Knocked Up (2007) or Superbad (2007). He played the same, odd, yet endearing lug in all these movie.
