Iain Duncan Smith outlines policy renewal process
2 Nov 2001
Following his talk to Conservative MP's, the Leader of the Party wrote to set out the policy renewl process.
"Yesterday, I spoke to you about the policy renewal process. Given the interest expressed after the meeting in the process, I decided to write to you all.
I want all of us to be engaged in the vital task of developing the policies on which we will fight the next General Election.
When we renewed our policy between 1974 and 1979 we applied Conservative principles and showed that they offered credible solutions to the most important problems that people in Britain faced.
The opportunity for us over the next few years is to emulate that approach with radical thinking, translated into relevant policies. This will take time. I am determined that we will not rush into new policy commitments before we have properly thought through both the problems and the solutions.
The way we go about the process of policy renewal will say much about us as a party. We need to begin by exposing the problems that need to be tackled; we need to articulate clear priorities; and when we eventually propose solutions, we need to show that they are practical and credible.
Each Shadow Cabinet minister has been asked to lead policy renewal in their portfolio, following a disciplined process of first defining the problems, and then looking for practical solutions based on Conservative values and beliefs.
The 1922 Committee is setting up 7 policy committees chaired by members of the Shadow Cabinet. The committees will comprise members of both Houses, and will be encouraged to take evidence from external experts on particular questions. I hope that you will contribute advice and ideas to these groups.
I have established a Policy Board that will meet regularly, as a sub-committee of the Shadow Cabinet, to oversee the policy renewal process and to consider all new policy proposals. The Policy Board will be supported by a new Policy Unit, reporting to me, which will be modelled on the Downing Street Policy Unit, and will be focused on strategic policy thinking. It will be available to support the process at all levels.
There will be opportunities for all parts of the party to contribute to policy renewal. I am particularly keen to tap into the experience and expertise of our MEPs, MSPs, AMs, Councillors and party members.
And this process will also be an opportunity to expand our reach. Building new networks of people in academia, in business and in the professions whose expertise can inform our policy making, and in due course they will help persuade people that our policies are practical. I hope that in your constituency and in your wider contacts you will be able to encourage people to contribute as we develop the programme of a credible alternative government."

BURNABY, B.C. - Federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says his caucus is united behind him, despite recent discord over his decision to punish a veteran member of Parliament.
After a backlash, Singh reversed his decision to oust Hamilton Centre MP David Christopherson from his role as vice chair of the procedure and House affairs committee.
"We're New Democrats. People are going to have different opinions. It's not a big deal," Singh said Thursday after touring a steel fabrication company in Burnaby, B.C.
"Many New Democrats are activists. They are used to speaking truth to power. I'm not so arrogant as a leader to believe that once I make a decision, that's it."
Singh dumped Christopherson from his position last week after the MP voted against the New Democrats on a Conservative motion. The motion — defeated by Liberal and NDP members — condemned the Liberal government's new policy requiring groups that apply for funding under the Canada Summer Jobs program to affirm their respect for abortion rights.
Ontario MP and former leadership rival Charlie Angus publicly chastised Singh for the decision and the leader reinstated Christopherson this week.
Singh insisted on Thursday that he had the full support of his 44-member caucus. Unlike "other leaders," he said, he doesn't shout members of his caucus down or tell them to "shut up" and toe the party line.
"We've got a strong caucus. It's a united caucus," he said. "My style is to listen to folks and to hear them out. I think that's what Canadians want."
The 39-year-old former Ontario provincial politician still does not hold a seat in the House of Commons after winning the federal leadership in October. He said he's "comfortable" where he is.
"If an opportunity does present itself, I'll still keep an open mind to that. But right now, I'm comfortable with the fact that I'll spend this time touring the country and meeting folks and hearing their concerns."
Before speaking with reporters, Singh toured architectural steel manufacturer George Third & Son. He said he wanted to meet with workers who stood to be affected by potential U.S. tariffs.
"We've got a strong and vibrant industry ... that needs to be protected."

Several chemically defined plant extracts were investigated for their antiviral action on herpes simplex virus (HSV-1, HSV-2)-infected African green monkey kidney cells and human adenocarcinoma cells, using a plaque formation assay. Among them, the monomeric hydrolyzable tannins, oligomeric ellagitannins and condensed tannins, having galloyl groups or hexahydroxydiphenoyl groups, had the most potent anti-HSV activity. Their 50% effective doses (0.03-0.1 microgram/ml) were by two-three orders of magnitude lower than their 50% cytotoxic doses (greater than 10 micrograms/ml). On the other hand, gallic acid, neutral polysaccharides, chemically modified (N,N-dimethylaminoethyl-, carboxymethyl-, and sulfated-) glucans, sialic acid-rich glycoproteins, and uronic acid-rich pine cone polysaccharide showed little or no activity. Using radiolabeled virus particles, we demonstrated that the anti-HSV effect of the tannins is due to inhibition of virus adsorption to the cells.

Even in baseball, good things come to those who wait.
Fans in Hartford had to wait an extra year for the home team to play its first game in the city. But when Dunkin' Donuts Park finally opened its gates in downtown Hartford on April 13, local residents fully embraced the facility, filling it to capacity 25 times so far this season. In fact, every game of their most recent homestand was a sellout.
Now those fans have another reason to cheer: Dunkin' Donuts Park, the first-year home of the Hartford Yard Goats, has been named the 2017 BaseballParks.com Ballpark of the Year.
For 18 straight years, the honor has been awarded to the new or remodeled baseball stadium with the best combination of site selection, exterior appearance, architectural design, and fan amenities. The selection is made by an advisory panel utilized by BaseballParks.com, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this month.
The announcement of the award is being made in the pages of the August 9th edition of USA TODAY Sports Weekly. Joe Mock, founder and webmaster of BaseballParks.com and a frequent contributor to USA TODAY publications, penned the article that announced that Hartford's new showplace is the winner of this year's honor.
"When I was writing my in-depth review of Dunkin' Donuts Park back in April, I was intrigued by its backstory," Mock said. "What the team, architects and city went through to get the park opened was unimaginable. The construction delays and legal issues made for a messy situation. Thankfully, the finished product is as nice as there is in the Minors. Not only that, once the legal matters are straightened out, the area around the park should see significant economic development."
Mock, who has visited all 203 ballparks used by the Majors, spring training and the affiliated Minor Leagues, added that "the amenities for the fans are second to none. The concessions, including Bear's BBQ and a BLT sandwich served between two Dunkin' Donuts glazed donuts, are exceptional."
"We are incredibly proud and honored to be named 2017 Ballpark of the Year," said Josh Solomon, the Yard Goats' principal owner. "Dunkin' Donuts Park has quickly become a wonderful source of pride for the City of Hartford, the State of Connecticut, our sponsors and our fans. The Stadium has created a vitality and energy that will help promote additional economic development and further Hartford's revitalization."
Reaction from City Hall in Hartford was equally positive. "Dunkin' Donuts Park is a spectacular ballpark that combines the intimate, family-friendly feel of Minor League ball with the architectural quality of a big-league park," observed Hartford's Mayor Luke Bronin. "That's one of the reasons Yard Goats games are selling out week after week and bringing thousands of fans and families to the downtown, which really adds to the City's energy. In the first year of my administration, we had to spend a lot of time and energy getting the project back on track and done right, and it's an honor to have BaseballParks.com recognize that the result truly stands out among parks across the country, including several major league facilities."
The other finalists for the 2017 award were: The Ballpark of the Palm Beaches, spring-training home for the Houston Astros and Washington Nationals; the Atlanta Braves' SunTrust Park and The Depot, the home of the Cleburne Railroaders of the independent American Association.
"Being named Ballpark of the Year when your main competition for the award is a brand new Major League park and a state-of-the-art Spring Training facility is truly a remarkable honor and a feather in the cap for Minor League Baseball," said Minor League Baseball President & CEO Pat O'Conner. "After everything the ballclub, the Colorado Rockies organization, the Eastern League and city went through to get the ballpark completed, it is great to see that it was worth the wait and I couldn't be happier for owner Josh Solomon, General Manager Tim Restall and the citizens of Hartford as they have certainly earned this distinction."
The Yard Goats are indeed the Double-A affiliate of the Colorado Rockies. The parent club showed remarkable patience during the delays of 2016. They are also quite pleased that their prospects are now playing in such a first-class facility. Zach Wilson, the Rockies' Senior Director for Player Development, noted that "Dunkin' Donuts Park has quickly become a beautiful landmark for the City of Hartford and we are grateful that our Double-A team can call it home. The fans that flock to the stadium paired with the amenities for our players makes it a perfect development situation for the Colorado Rockies to continue to move our players towards the Major League level."
"On behalf of the design team that includes Pendulum, Newman and SLAM, I want first and foremost to express how honored we are to share this award with the City of Hartford and the Yard Goats," said Pendulum's Jonathan Cole, chief architect on the park. "To be recognized by BaseballParks.com and USA TODAY for such an exclusive merit-based award is extremely meaningful and humbling. This is especially true because the judging panel includes Joe Mock, who has a keen eye for what is relevant in ballpark design.
"This award carries a lot of weight and has been something I've strived for my entire career," Cole added. "And despite the well-documented adversity we faced in completing the park, our team pulled together and fought hard to do the right thing. Yes, it was worth it."
As Cole mentioned, this award is merit-based, not voted on by fans. "Our panel discussed the merits of each of the finalists," Mock explained. "In the end, it was clear that the remarkable story behind the completion of this park and its ground-breaking design made it a clear choice."
Participating on the Advisory Panel with Mock are Doug Greenwald, who's been doing play-by-play in pro baseball for the past 22 seasons, and Graham Knight, author of three books on ballparks and who operates the popular Baseball Pilgrimages website. Greenwald and Knight have each visited over 200 pro ballparks.
Winners of the award over the past 17 years include such noteworthy facilities as PNC Park (Pittsburgh Pirates, 2001), Petco Park (San Diego Padres, 2004), Huntington Park (Columbus Clippers, 2009), Salt River Fields (spring training home of the Diamondbacks and Rockies, 2011) and Southwest University Park (El Paso Chihuahuas, 2014).
Last year's honor went to Fort Bragg Field, the facility built to host only one game. Major League Baseball and the Players Association partnered to erect the temporary park so members of the military at Fort Bragg could attend a big-league contest.
Mock's in-depth review of Dunkin' Donuts Park entitled "Ending Hartford's Losing Streak" can be found here: http://www.baseballparks.com/indepth/dunkin-donuts-park/

Forum spreads festive message that Highland licensed premises are 'safe drinking environments'.
'Enjoy a safe festive night out in Highland Licensed Premises thanks to an overhaul of the alcohol licensing system' states the Highland Licensing Forum.
The Forum has announced that the alcohol licensing system is working well in Highland - six years after new legislation came into force in September 2009.
The changes in legislation have enabled increased joint working between the Highland Licensing Board, the licensed trade, Police Scotland, and Scottish Fire & Rescue Service. This joint working, combined with the introduction of Licensing Standards Officers, has improved public safety for people socialising in Licensed Premises.
Ramsay McGhee, Convener of Highland Licensing Forum said:
"With the festive season upon us, many people across the Highlands will be planning nights out to celebrate. It may be comforting to them to note that they will be enjoying themselves in a licensing environment which is safer and more professionally run than ever before.
He explained: "The 2005 Act introduced a new licensing regime across Scotland which came into effect in 2009. This included compulsory training for premises managers and bar staff and a whole new system for applying for a licence or making objections or complaints.
"Early this year Highland Licensing Forum carried out a review of the operation of the Act in Highland area. The Forum looked back at the problems perceived to be caused by excess alcohol consumption including antisocial behaviour, crimes of disorder, health issues, underage drinking and binge drinking.
"The Forum considered whether licensing arrangements after 2009 had reduced these problems taking into account statistical and anecdotal evidence from its members. We concluded that antisocial behaviour, assaults, serious assaults and crimes of disorder around licensed premises are reducing in number.
"The review also showed that Proof of Age Schemes and Age Verification Policies have made it extremely hard for underage people to purchase alcohol from Licensed Premises. Recent evidence tends to show that most alcohol consumed by children or young people comes from domestic homes.
"Professional stewarding of the late night economy aligned with proactive and well run Pubwatch schemes in Inverness and major towns across Highland have made a real impact in excluding persons who choose to indulge in anti-social behaviour in licensed premises.
"Police Scotland and licence holders have long advocated the benefits of safe drinking in on-sales premises where public safety, and conformity with licensing laws and licence conditions are integral to the sale of alcohol, when compared to drinking at home and in other unregulated environments."
Elisabeth Smart, Consultant in Public Health added: "NHS Highland and Highland Alcohol & Drugs Partnership (HADP) wish to encourage people to enjoy the festive celebrations while adhering to the recognised safe drinking limits (2 - 3 units per day for women and 3 - 4 units per day for men). People who have changed to drink more sensibly tell us they tend to sleep better, have more energy, feel happier and less anxious and have more money in their pockets. We know that alcohol continues to cause significant problems for some and we would urge anyone seeking information or advice in relation to issues concerning alcohol to consult the HADP website http://www.highland-adp.org.uk/alcohol."
Sergeant Bruce Gray, of Police Scotland Liquor and Civic Government Licensing Department: "The review carried out by the Highland Licensing Forum has been very useful in highlighting the successful steps taken by partner agencies to help keep people safe. Multi-agency initiatives such as Pub Watch and Operation Respect aim to ensure everyone can socialise safely across the Highlands and Islands. Police Scotland will continue to make the message very clear: anti-social and violent behaviour will not be tolerated. We will also continue to ensure young people are kept safe from harm associated with underage drinking.
"As part of ensuring people enjoy their night out, Police and partners encourage sensible drinking and looking after each other on nights out. Having the support of and working alongside Licensees, door and bar staff and of course patrons themselves allows the social economy of our towns and cities to flourish in addition to ensuring everyone enjoys their evenings out in a safe environment."

South Korean smartphone makers led by Samsung and LG are rewriting their global market strategies, prompted by sluggish sales and tough competition in China, or an unexpected consumer response to low-end products in North America.
In the first half of this year, Samsung fared well in the global smartphone market, particularly in the United States, with its flagship Galaxy S8 series, but its pride was broken in China due to poor sales, while LG's smartphone business was in crisis.
The world's largest smartphone maker has simplified the bloated structure of Chinese operations from seven branches and 30 regional offices to 22 regional headquarters which were put under direct control by vice president Kwon Kye-Hyun in charge of Samsung's business in China.
The change was designed to strengthen sales and marketing through quick decision making. "The structural change was intended to do business in accordance with regional characteristics," a Samsung official said.
According to market researcher Strategy Analytics, Samsung's second-quarter smartphone sales in North America stood at 14 million units, cornering 33.3 percent of total sales in the region to regain its top post taken by Apple a year ago. In China, however, Samsung's market share has plunged from 19 percent in 2013 to 3.0 percent in the first quarter of this year.
"There have been constant suggestions that Samsung needs a tailored strategy to cope with massive investments and low-cost marketing by Chinese companies such as Huawei," an industrial official said, adding the recent release of SM-G9298, a new flip phone, in China, underlines Samsung's new strategy.
LG's situation is more pressing. The company's operating loss was reduced from 467 billion won (415 million US dollars) in the fourth quarter of last year to 200 million won in the first quarter of this year, raising market expectations of a turnaround in its troubled smartphone business, but LG saw its operating loss surging again to 130 billion won in the second quarter of this year due to high marketing expenses.
There was a positive signal as LG's low-end smartphones gained popularity. Data from Strategy Analytics showed that in the first half of this year, LG stood third in the US smartphone market, behind Samsung and Apple.
As its hard-earned point in North America was attributable to low-end products, LG is strengthening a lineup of cheap models. Industry observers said both Samsung and LG regard smartphones as their core business because they will serve as platforms for the integration of home appliances through IoT.

There's something special that gets captured on video when a real-life couple appears in a sex tape. Perhaps it's because the passion, energy and chemistry established between guys who know each other intimately cannot be replicated with guys who have only just met to film a scene together. Kip Ryker and Tyler Morgan are real-life boyfriends who spent some time in San Diego and filmed this bareback scene for Guys In Sweatpants. This is the second bareback scene released by the site (that I know of) and it looks like they will be showcasing raw scenes at their site every so often. The guys enjoy some foreplay and it doesn't take their hormones long to go into overdrive and their pursuit for sexual pleasure takes them on an enjoyable journey of bareback sex. The guys use the "spit and stick" method to fuck and this brings out their natural instinct for fucking raw. Kip and Tyler enjoy barebacking each other in a flip-flop fucking arrangement, which reaches its climax when Tyler fucks the cum out of Kip, then pumps his own load inside his boyfriend. I look forward to seeing more bareback porn at the site in the future and I'm hopeful that this will eventuate.

He worked as a translator for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office before co-founding a company that produces English versions of Japanese comics and video games. He also writes extensively about cultural trends including yokai, ninja, emoji, and more.
Chieko Mukasa
Main Guest
Food journalist, essayist and researcher of food culture Mukasa was born in Tokyo, and is a leading authority on the true taste of Japan, and traditional methods of cooking. She has spent more than 30 years delving into the appeal of a traditional Japanese breakfast from a variety of angles.
May 16, 2017

In December 2013, washoku -- Japan's traditional cuisine -- was added to UNESCO's register of the world's intangible cultural heritage, a list aimed at preserving treasured social customs handed down from generation to generation.
Among the defining characteristics put forward by the Japanese government in its application for this recognition were: diversity and freshness of ingredients and respect for their inherent flavors; an exceptionally well-balanced and healthy diet; and an expression of natural beauty and the changing seasons.
All of these traits are reflected in the traditional Japanese breakfast, which combines the national staple dish of steamed glutinous rice with miso soup and a wide variety of seasonal and pre-prepared ingredients.
An awful lot of preparation goes into a traditional Japanese breakfast, and some of the most elaborate examples of all can be found at ryokan (inns).
The preparation of such a carefully put-together morning meal would typically begin the night before, or even further in advance when you consider the miso, natto, pickles, and other protein-rich fermented foods that are a mainstay of washoku. A great place for a visitor to sample the results might be a ryokan (a traditional inn) or perhaps one of Japan's growing number of farmhouse inns called "noka minshuku."
Peter Barakan and Chieko Mukasa tuck into the hearty breakfast prepared by Satomi Hagiwara using ingredients from her own farm.
As Peter discovered when he visited the Hagiwara family, a farmhouse breakfast will often feature dishes prepared from vegetables grown on-site as well as a hearty bowl or two of local rice. The Hagiwara household actually grows its own rice.
Away from farming and fishing communities, as Japan has moved towards a service-based economy and physical work has become less common, fewer and fewer Japanese have found the time to prepare or savor such a breakfast.
Particularly during the period of remarkable economic growth that stretched from the end of World War II until the burst of the asset price bubble in 1991, Japan's workers went all-out to contribute to the nation's development, often having to leave home extra early for the long commute to their offices and factories.
Around stations and in inner-city commercial centers, a new breakfast industry developed to accommodate those who chose to beat the morning rush by leaving the house on an empty stomach and grabbing a quick bite closer to their place of employment. With bread gradually becoming part of the national diet, coffee shops began to offer the now-iconic "morning service," usually featuring coffee and a thick doorstep of fluffy white toast, often with a salad and a hard-boiled egg.
At many soba noodle shops, patrons place their order using tickets from a vending machine by the entrance (left).
The much-loved toast-and-coffee "morning set" originated in the 1960s.
One dish now gathering a following among those seeking a comforting, nutritious meal is tamago-kake-gohan (raw egg served over steamed rice), sometimes abbreviated to "TKG" by time-pressed aficionados. As Matt Alt finds out, while some visitors from overseas might have a resistance to eating raw egg, strict guidelines are in place in Japan to eliminate the risk of salmonella poisoning, making TKG an "egg"-cellent way to start your day.
Matt tries some tamago-kake-gohan.

SUBZERO 30 Built-In Over-and-Under Refrigerator/Freezer - Panel Ready BI-30U/O
Available Options:
|Product Height
|Product Width
|Product Depth
|Product Weight
Specifications are for planning purposes only and may change without notice. Please refer to manufacturer manuals for all details.
Wrinkled fruit, wilted lettuce. You've seen your share of past due, even spoiled food in the refrigerator. Well, it doesn't have to be that way – the Sub-Zero 30" Built-in Over-and-under Refrigerator keeps your food fresher longer with the most advanced food preservation technology available - a technology developed through almost 70 years of research. That means crisper greens, juicier peppers, blueberries that burst with flavor – even weeks after you've brought them home from the market. You'll taste the difference.
With dual refrigeration, fresh foods thrive in a humid yet chilly climate, while frozen and convenience foods get the dry, frigid air they need. An air purification system inspired by NASA technology scrubs the air of ethylene gas, bacteria, mold and viruses. A magnetic door seal system locks in cold, while a state-of-the-art microprocessor monitors each section of your Sub-Zero for pinpoint climate control. Storage capacity for the BI-30U is a generous 13.2 cu. ft. refrigerator, 4.2 cu. ft. freezer. Bottom line? More flavorful, delicious food for you, your family, your guests.
Panel ready design
Just add your custom cabinetry panels and handles, and it blends into the décor of any room.
Air purification system fights spoilage, odors
Many fresh foods emit ethylene gas, a natural compound that hastens spoilage. Sub-Zero's built-in refrigerators come with an anti-microbial air purification system (based on technology developed by NASA) that scrubs the air of ethylene, as well as mold, viruses and bacteria, every 20 minutes.
Microprocessor control guarantees peak performance
Our state-of-the-art microprocessor preserves your food by adjusting to your individual climate and schedule. It continuously monitors each section of your Sub-Zero for pinpoint climate control, so foods are kept at their ideal temperature, varying by only one degree of your set point. Also lets you finesse your lighting and cooling fan, tells you if your door is ajar, and defrosts when it's most convenient for you.
Water-filtration system
Designed to reduce contaminants and chlorine taste and odors when purifying water for ice, this low-maintenance system uses a filter built to last 1 year or 750 gallons. Replacement is fast and easy.
Exceptional 24/7 customer support
Whether you're shopping for appliances or have questions about those you already own, our Customer Care team has a reputation for service that's as exceptional as our products. They're based in Madison, Wisconsin, just footsteps from our factory, and are standing by to provide expert, friendly, problem-solving support.
Over-and-under refrigerator/freezer storage
Built-in over-and-under units feature easy-access refrigerator storage above a full-extension, roll-out freezer drawer containing two-tier wire baskets.
Automatic ice maker with "max ice" feature
High-efficiency unit provides crescent-shaped ice cubes and includes a "max ice" feature capable of increasing ice production by an average of 30 percent for a 24-hour period – just the boost you need for parties and holidays.
Dual refrigeration keeps food fresher
This technology pioneered by Sub-Zero features separate compressors and cooling systems for the refrigerator and freezer. Fresh food stays fresher in cool, moist air on one side, while frigid, dry air prevents frost and freezer burn on the other — optimum preservation conditions for each type of food.
Low-temperature/high-humidity storage zones
Crispers and deli drawers are strategically located near the evaporator to maintain temperatures a few degrees cooler than the rest of the unit. Drawers are sealed to lock in humidity and ensure freshness.
Helpful freshness cards
Different foods require different storage procedures. That's why, inside each refrigerator, we include "freshness cards" that provide easy-to-follow tips for ensuring maximum food preservation.
Rigorously tested to ensure dependability
Every component of every single Sub-Zero unit is tested in our U.S. manufacturing facilities before assembly, then every completed product is factory-tested for up to 24 hours before shipping. In our labs, components are subjected to electric jolts, violent vibrations and 350â° temperature swings, and tested to stand up to at least 20 years of heavy use.
"Soft bright" interior lighting
Evenly distributed interior lighting – powered by specially designed 40-watt appliance bulbs in the refrigerator and freezer – illuminates food in a soft, pleasing manner, making even those cornichons back in the corner easy to spot.
Magnetic door seal system locks in cold air
One-piece construction, extra-heavy insulation and magnetic gaskets around every door lock in cold air. Our seals are so secure that even after power outages of multiple days, owners report no thawing of their frozen foods!
Adjustable shelves for maximum convenience
Food comes in all shapes and sizes, and the interior design of our refrigerators and freezers accommodates that diversity. Main shelves, door shelves, even dividers in drawers adjust to allow the most convenient configuration possible.

State Representative Dorothy Pelanda (R-Marysville) today congratulated the various Marion County Fire and Police Departments for being named recipients of the Local Government Safety Capital Grant funds.
Initiated by the Ohio House of Representatives and included in the state operating budget for fiscal years 2016 and 2017, these grants can be used to help fund public safety projects in local communities throughout Ohio.
Local governments could apply for the grants for eligible projects, but the funding must be used for purchasing vehicles, equipment, facilities and/or systems utilized by police, fire, and/or EMS providers to enhance public safety.
"I am pleased to see the city of Marion utilize this grant process in order to improve their local safety needs," Rep. Pelanda stated.
The grant will further aid Marion County emergency dispatch services in consolidating a total of 13 local safety partners by creating a centralized computer system. The funding will be used to update and purchase the mobile CAD/RMS system, console radio, mobile radio, portable radio, and vehicle repeater.
The Local Government Innovation Council administers the program.
State Representative Dorothy Pelanda (R-Marysville) and Senator Dave Burke (R-Marysville) were present for the signing of House Bill 177 by Governor John Kasich on December 19th 2013.
In an effort to obtain feedback from the residents of the 86th Ohio House District, State Representative Dorothy Pelanda (R-Marysville) encourages her constituents to fill out and return her legislative survey, which seeks feedback on issues such as the states economy, taxes and education funding.

friendship vs direct-selling
I've always believed that when they asked me out, it was because they enjoyed my company. There was a time when they asked me to a movie, I told them I was thankful they rescued me from a terrible day in the office.
Actually we asked you out for a reason, one of them said to me, which was when I found out there would be a Amway meeting on that weekend.
But then I managed to convince myself that even if they weren't going to ask me to attend that meeting, they would definitely still asked me out no matter what. In other words, the Amway thingy is not the only (or main) reason we were there. I believed it's true, I still do.
I received a call yesterday morning, which broke my heart entirely. He tried to convince me to join Amway as a member, asking me to support them, said he was asking as a friend. I would be more than happy to do so, emotionally and finanacially (as in the mere RM80 membership fees), had not he said that our friendship is build upon the foundation of direct-selling. To be fair, those are not his exact words, but that's how I interpret it.
He said that if not because they were all members of this Amway thingy, they wouldn't have met once every week on the Monday meetings, they wouldn't have something in common to talk about, and they wouldn't even meet each other. So I should join them this big family so that we can keep in touch. He said it as if it is a good thing, as if it is something to be proud of. I mean, how can you be so proud, when you need direct-selling to bring your friends and you together? How can you be happy, knowing that your friends and you would just ignore each other, get on with your lives and forget about your buddies if Amway does not exist? I was deeply hurt by the things he told me, but i hid my feelings over the phone, pretended that I was perfectly fine, and told him I was happy to help out.
Now that I think about it, I feel so stupid. I was so glad when they asked me out. I was so glad that they remembered me when they have get-togethers. I'd been looking forward to meeting them up consistently, even after graduation. I imagined going for movies or dinners on Friday nights, occasional clubbings on Saturday nights, and some mid-night mamak stall or McD. But now I fear that not being an active member of Amway, I'd eventually be forgotten. (I feel so ridiculous even as I'm writing this. It is the worst excuse anyone can think of to try to convince a person to join direct-selling.)
I worry and fear for the day that I do not have a single friend in my life. The thought of losing you, anyone of you, is unbearable.

your friend has been blinded by Amway... not only them, in fact many of Amway's 'diciplies' were hugely influenced by this organization... they believed so much in Amway that it's actually scary.. in fact, i've been to one of their meetings before, Amway,.. was pulled there by a total stranger, silly me..
anyways, back to your questions, of course friendship is NOT based on direct selling...... it's on trust and care, and how we make time for each other... i wouldn't pray that my friends would fall sick so i can see them more often, right?? just think about it..

i'm just thinking... they probably have no idea how much impact this whole thing will have on me... he said that i think too much... i dont know whether i'm thinking too much, or their actions memang is with a purpose... i already dont know wat to think...

- knitfreak-to-be said...
a fren will be a fren not because of other things, friendship is simple, you enjoy each others' companionship, not to gain something from other party..its just totally wrong--azita

- shinyin_jocelyn said...
don't think.. they can memujuk you to join Amway.. but if you already have a decision, friends will not force you.... note: differentiate pujuk and force... what azita said was true, you enjoy each other companionship, you care and trusts.. you do not need direct sales...
- July 7, 2008 at 1:12 PM
hey shinloo... guess wat?!! u're not the only one. i had frens in uni too trying to persuade me to join amway... since 2nd year in uni!! i manage to turn her down a few times and last friday i just met up wif her and guess wat?!! i'm now an amway member believe it or not! i kinda regret for signing up... not that i wan to increase my down-line but mayb just for the sake of buying some things through member price. till now, i still don't get it... why r they so obsess wif amway?
- July 27, 2008 at 9:13 AM
- thE gEOgrAphicAlly blind said...
well yeah, i'm also a amway member now, though i didn't pay them the member fees yet. they said tat i kena robbed, so they'll pay for me first...
- July 27, 2008 at 10:22 AM
actually, u spoke out the feeling that hided deeply in my heart. Since first of my fren ask me to join direct sell, i had told them, i hate the friedship that come with specified purpose. but anyway, i am also member of Amway now. something, u hate it, but u just cant avoid to drop inside the trap.

American Flags in Bruce SD 57220 – Proudly Made in the USA
Quick History of the American Flag
Retiring your Old American Flag
Which Flag is Right for You?
American Flags made in America
Unlike various other countries, USA just has two nationwide symbols: the bald eagle, and the American flag. While the bald eagle is internationally identified, the American flag is a symbol recognized worldwide. The flag has been the inspiration for holidays, songs, poems, publications, artwork and also more. It has actually been utilized to display nationalism, rebellion and whatever inbetween. The flag is so essential that its background informs the story of America itself.
The American flag consists of thirteen alternating horizontal stripes of equal width, which 7 are red in color as well as 6 are white. In the upper-left corner, usually referred to as the canton, is a blue rectangular shape, on which are drawn fifty white five-pointed stars.
The American flag was adopted officially in 1777, at that time there was no meaning attached to the colors. The very same colors were used in developing the Seal of the United States of America in 1782, having specific significance. The significance behind the colors of the flag are as follows:
"White symbolizes purity as well as innocence.
Red, hardiness & valiance.
Blue, represents alertness, determination & justice".
Since 1777 when it was first adopted formally, the American flag has undertaken several modifications to reach its present design.
Short History of the American Flag
The background of our flag is as fascinating as that of the nation itself. It has endured battles, motivated music tracks and evolved in action to the growth of the nation it stands for. The following is a collection of fascinating points as well as customs concerning the American flag and also how it is to be displayed:
- The flag is normally presented from dawn to sunset. In stormy weather, the flag ought to not be flown.
- The flag must be displayed day-to-day and on all vacations, climate permitting, on or near the main management buildings of all public organizations. It ought to additionally be shown in or near every polling place on election days and also in or near every schoolhouse during school days.
- When shown flat against a wall surface or a window, or in an upright orientation, the "Union" area of stars ought to be uppermost and to the left of the onlooker.
- When the flag is elevated or lowered as part of an event, and as it passes by in parade or review, every person, except those in attire, should encounter the flag with the right hand over the heart.
- The United States flag must never ever be dipped towards anyone or item, neither must the flag ever before touch anything below it.
Over the years, extensive guidelines have actually been put in place for how to deal with the flag. You might observe some people are also brought to tears when the flag is honored at events and events.
The flag could be embellished with gold fringe bordering the perimeter of the flag as long as it does not ruin the flag proper. Ceremonial displays of the flag, such as those in ceremonies or on indoor posts, frequently make use of fringe to enhance the appearance of the flag. Additionally, when the flag is fastened to the right side of a car of any type of kind (e.g. cars), it should be oriented so that the "Union" is towards the front of the automobile, as if the flag were streaming in reverse from its hoist as the automobile moves forward. For that reason, American flag decals on the right sides of automobiles may appear to be reversed, with the union to the onlooker's right as opposed to left as more generally seen.
On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress passed an act establishing an official flag for the brand-new country. The resolution stated: "Resolved, that the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue area, representing a brand-new constellation." On Aug. 3, 1949, President Harry S. Truman formally proclaimed June 14 as Flag Day.

Time Long Past
Like the ghost of a dear friend dead
Is Time long past.
A tone which is now forever fled,
A hope which is now forever past,
A love so sweet it could not last,
Was Time long past.
There were sweet dreams in the night
Of Time long past:
And, was it sadness or delight,
Each day a shadow onward cast
Which made us wish it yet might last,
That Time long past.
There is regret, almost remorse,
For Time long past.
'Tis like a child's belovèd corse
A father watches, till at last
Beauty is like remembrance, cast
From Time long past.
(Percy Bysshe Shelley)

Need Search Engine Optimization Pricing? Learn Here...
Need Search Engine Optimization Pricing? Learn Here...
This is all about why Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is important for your Website and, if it comes down to outsourcing, the reason for big Search Engine Optimization pricing. Search Engine optimization is very essential for those who are into home based businesses. Since it provides people with the necessary traffic for a webmaster to make money, you will start to understand the need for SEO knowledge and its use. Nevertheless for those of that do not fully understand search engine optimization, I will start with in that area...
Search Engine Optimization is all about taking your Website and making it highly compatible with the best search engines in the market. This includes search engines like Google, Yahoo, and AOL. In order to make this compatibility possible, you will need to understand HTML. Do you know HTML? If not it is time to learn.
So, why do you want to have SEO integrated into your Website? Well, this is because once it is used, your site will be able to gather the necessary traffic from those top search engines. For instance, if your site is about "dogs," and someone types "dog help" into the search engine, he will be able to get to your site via the search. However, if SEO was not used, the search performed by the individual will bring up results that will not include your site. Remember without traffic, your site is pretty useless.
Now, how do you get to the top of the search engines so people will see your site. Here is the breakdown: You will have to do some keyword research, apply those words to various section on your site (meta tag, keyword tag), keep putting those keywords on the constantly updated content of your site and adding the links of sites that are like yours. These methods are the basics of SEO. With these simple methods you will be able to increase the revenue generated by your site.
If you are not interested in doing SEO yourself or do not fully understand SEO, you might be interested in Search Engine Optimization pricing. This is a good idea if you have a big site and do not have enough time to do all the SEO work yourself. The price for professionals to perform SEO to your site can range anywhere between $1500-$2500. Prices can vary based on the reputation of the company. You will have to do research on individual companies to find the perfect SEO service pack price for you. If you are lucky you can probably find prices that are below the standard price that I have mentioned (or at least you will find some form of discount to lessen the blow to your site maintenance budget).
I went over SEO and the idea of why Search Engine Optimization pricing is in the $1000 area. If you apply the ideas I put forth you will see the traffic increase on your site. If you do not have enough time to do the optimizing yourself, outsource. Overall, make sure you study more on the SEO topic because this will be the only way for you to succeed online.

Last year, when considering the establishment of the Commission of Inquiry into the March 2016 prison disturbances in which 17 inmates lost their lives, I made two recommendations having to do with imprisonment and sentencing, which I am following up on here, because I believe they are still important to how our criminal justice system develops and is responded to by those in jail. Being in a jail or prison may be technically two different things, but in Guyanese parlance there is no difference and the former is thought of as being worse.
My first recommendation was rooted in my belief that prisoners are allowed only the most rudimentary decent human contact and thus imprisonment destroys the entire process by which, through their activities, men meet each other in the process of development and humanization (SN: 06/04/2016). However, regardless of one's philosophy, it is now broadly accepted that although it might be necessary in some circumstances, imprisonment is dehumanizing and should be conducted in humane conditions and only as a last resort. Therefore, if after the conflagration of July 9 2017, we could let some 91 prisoners out without endangering society, it suggests that prison is not being utilised by the political establishment in this minimalist manner and it is incumbent upon like minds to continue to make this point and to inquire why it is that we insist on putting persons who need not be there in such dehumanizing conditions.
It is well established that Scandinavian prisons are the most humane in the world, yet Scandinavian countries have some of the lowest crime and recidivist rates in the world – half those of the United States or Great Britain. An observer stated that one of the important reasons this is so is because, 'throughout Scandinavia, criminal justice policy rarely enters political debate. Decisions about best practices are left to professionals in the field. … Sustaining the barrier between populist politics and results-based prison policy are media that don't sensationalize crime – if they report it at all' (https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2013/09/why-scandinavian-prisons-are-superior/279949/).
In the United States, for example, Republicans and Democrats have waged a 'tougher on crime' competition 'built upon white unease with the disruption of the old racial order brought about by the civil rights and Black Power movements. … Under the guise of the wars on drugs, crime, and terror, the urban poor and disenfranchised, especially young black men, have been rounded up in mass numbers, largely for non-violent drug crimes, of which middle-class whites have been consistently shown to be equal perpetrators' (Ibid).
One Norwegian criminologist who has been a major influence on Scandinavian penal policy made the important observation that criminal punishment is also determined by whom voters imagine this punishment landing upon. The more unlike oneself the imagined perpetrator of crime, the harsher the conditions one will agree to impose upon convicted criminals, and the greater the range of acts one will agree should be designated as crimes. 'More homogeneous nations institutionalize mercy, which is to say they attend more closely to the circumstances surrounding individual criminal acts. … The harshness of the punishment that fearful voters are convinced is the only thing that works on people who don't think or act like them becomes a measure of the moral distance between these voters and people identified as criminals' (Ibid).
So that when the political establishment as a whole broadens the scope of the criminal law and enacts or maintains overly severe penalties for relatively minor crimes that disproportionately affect the poor, it should be noted that justice and the law can be essentially two different things and that both are many a time underpinned by all manner of destructive class and ethnic prejudices and self-interest. Maybe also given the ethnic nature of the prison population, when the PPP projects itself and the regime as respectively being 'hard' and 'soft' on crime (SN: 12/07/2017), it should take some time to consider the foundation of such thinking and upon whom the punishment is most likely to land.
The highly chaotic, dangerous and permissive conditions that exist in the prison environment are fairly well known and most people are repelled by this sort of institution. Yet it is widely recognised, and my second recommendation was that prisons require persistent public concern, oversight and activism if the abuses taking place in them that give rise to dangerous levels of inmate dissatisfaction are to be minimized and the prison environment come a bit closer to being fit for human habitation. ('Prisons require persistent public oversight:' SN: 13/04/2016).
Therefore, in the present environment, a statement emanating from former Minister of Home Affairs and opposition spokesperson Mr. Clement Rohee is very troubling. He claimed to have recognised the importance of public oversight and had established a raft of institutions – a strategic management board including persons from civil society, a sentence management board that met every month with prison management to assess and to take corrective action, prison visiting committees of civilians, an agriculture development board and a board for training and education of prisoners – to allow civilian oversight to flourish. However, according to him, all of these were disbanded by the current government, and so far as he is aware, nothing has taken their place. ('Rohee accuses gov't of shelving PPP/C-led prison reforms:' SN: 16/07/2017). Recently, Christopher Ram pointed to a similar situation in relation to the appointment of the high level committee recommended by the 2016 COI (SN: 16/07/2017).
Now, regardless of the shortcomings of the above institutional arrangement and the previous government in relation to the topic under discussion, it was not sensible to disband without replacing these institutions. Indeed, the government's behaviour makes nonsense of the claim that financing prison reform was largely responsible for the recent events at Camp Street as establishing such vital arrangements would not have been overly expensive. The president's claim – which was intended to deflect most of the blame on the previous PPP/C government – that the conflagration was 'an accident waiting to happen,' must also be cast aside.
Sympathetic voices would have us believe that criticising the regime is unfair since we do not know what was done and what was not ('Calls for Ramjattan resignation unfair, former prison inquiry chairman says:' SN: 16/07/2017). It is the duty of the government to present the public with some kind of account demonstrating what has been accomplished so far and what have been the obstacles it has had to confront. In the absence of such an account, I believe criticism of the government is justified and in view of the importance of public oversight, if the situation is as reported, the regime should act quickly to replace and where necessary improve it.

The Indigenous People of Biafra, (IPOB) on Monday February 15, 2016 staged a peaceful protest march in Geneva, Switzerland calling for the immediate and unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and a referendum for independence from Nigeria.
The IPOB members condemned in its entirety the ongoing massacre of unarmed Biafran agitators and called the attention of world leaders to prevail on the Nigeria government to stop the provocative killings of Igbos in the south-east.
The Biafra Nationalists insisted on a referendum, a course of action, said one of the agitators, to free Biafrans from the oppressive yoke of the Nigerian government.
His words, "We are irrevocably committed to our call for a referendum to free our people from Nigeria. We are a people that have been marginalized, a people which the Nigerian government has committed several crimes against humanity on and this time around we have made up our mind to secede from Nigeria and there is no turning back"
"We shall carry this protest to the 27 countries that make up the EU (Europea Union) and indeed the rest of the world until they heed our pleas and prevail on the evil government in Nigeria to free our people", one of the visibly angry agitators also told our reporter in Geneva.
On inquiry whether they will resort to armed struggle to actualize an independent Biafran State, they said they are in no move to disclose their next line of action to anyone for security reasons.
You will recall that an independent Republic of Biafra was declared in 1967 by the then Head of State General Odumegwu Ojukwu as a response to the genocide and massacre of about a hundred thousand (100, 000) Igbos and other Easterners (Ijaw, Ibibio, Annang, efik etc) in different parts of Nigeria. The nation of Biafra lasted for 3 years after a bloody civil war of independence with Nigeria in which more than 3.5 million Biafrans were killed with more than 1million Biafran children killed.
In a similar development the leader of IPOB Mazi Nnamdi is currently in a Nigerian prison for soliciting for self determination for the people of Biafra. He was granted bail by a competent court of jurisdiction but the Nigerian Government headed by Buhari blatantly disobeyed the court order on Kanu's release.

Finding Dahshaa: Self-Government, Social Suffering, and Aboriginal Policy in CanadaBy: Stephanie Irlbacher-Fox (author)Hardback
Up to 2 WeeksUsually despatched within 2 weeks
DescriptionJust as dahshaa, a rare type of dried, rotted spruce wood, is essential to the moosehide-tanning process in Dene culture, self-determination and the alleviation of social suffering are necessary to Indigenous survival in Northwest Territories. But are self-government agreements an effective path to self-determination? Finding Dahshaa describes self-government negotiations as they have unfolded between Canada and the Dehcho, Deline, and Inuvialuit and Gwich'in peoples. By contrasting accounts of negotiating sessions in city boardrooms with vibrant descriptions of Dene moosehide-tanning camps on the land and community meetings in small northern communities, it shows why Canada's Aboriginal policy has failed to alleviate the causes of social suffering in the North. Social suffering is not a relic of the past, it has become part of the process as government negotiators have dismissed it as irrelevant to self-government or used it as a rationale to minimize Indigenous authority. Ethnographic descriptions of tanning practices, which embody principles and values central to the project of self-determination, by contrast, offer an alternative model for negotiations. An informed and passionate account, Finding Dahshaa draws on the author's experience working for Indigenous peoples and includes a foreword by Dene National Chief Bill Erasmus. It is the first ethnographic study of self-government negotiations in Canada. Website link: www.findingdahshaa.ca
About AuthorStephanie Irlbacher-Fox holds a doctorate in polar studies from Cambridge University and for the past decade has worked for Indigenous peoples on self-government and related political development processes in Canada's Northwest Territories. For more information, visit findingdashaa.ca.

text: The panels from the Great East Window of York Minster were dismantled as part of the conservation project. The panels had been re-leaded in the 1950s with a heavy, wide-profile lead which often covered parts of the painted details of the glass - in some cases obscuring the original design or iconography. This lead was removed, and conservation work was carried out. The panels were then re-leaded with a thinner lead, closer in width to medieval leads, enabling more of the colour and detail of the window to be revealed

Well, we�ve seen that Solyndra�s half billion dollar loan went down the tubes with its bankruptcy.
OK, the investigation is on, looking at who approved it, why red flags were ignored, and why private investors were protected before taxpayer money.
I would like to know where the money went! To the private investors, or maybe the board of directors of Solyndra, or maybe a political contribution to show appreciation for the loan? All of the above?
Makes you wonder why Solyndra�s executives took the fifth.
