Does service to our country matter anymore?
As one of the "baby boom" generation, I have lived and worked among three U.S. Presidents who could have served in the military during the Vietnam war. Bill Clinton, the first Vietnam era President, defied military service with multiple draft deferments, including a questionable one obtained while he studied as an Rhodes scholar in Britain.

A new report from employment law firm Seyfarth Shaw reveals class-action lawsuits in wage and hour law cases are seeing pronounced increases over 2013. According to Gerald Maatman, co-chair of Seyfarth's Class Action Defense group and author of the report, wage and hour cases grew exponentially in 2013 and are continuing to burden industry in 2014.
Wage and hour lawsuits arise when businesses allegedly underpay their workers, either because they were wrongly listed as ineligible for overtime, or because they simply never received the money they worked for. These lawsuits resulted in settlements of $248,450,000, fueled largely by "continued dislocations in the economy."
"Maatman said, "I think manufacturers are especially being hit with all types of these workplace lawsuits. But any industry with minimum wage workers also tends to get hit, like the staffing industry and food service industry. They're hiring a lot of people and experiencing a lot of turnover. This includes small companies as well as large."
The report also highlights concerns with government lawsuits generated by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), which Maatman said sues companies of all sizes in order to create a precedent. "When the government and the EEOC sue, it is to create a precedent," he said. Many small employers are being sued by the federal government simply because the government is trying to create a legal precedent they can draw from in the future."
The increase in these suits is becoming a selling point for employment practices liability (EPLI) as well as directors and officers (D&O). As Maatman noted, the lawsuits are now "typically two-defendant cases" – against the company and its owner. "Many [small companies] without insurance don't have a way to defend themselves when the weight of the US government comes down upon them," he said. "They really need EPLI."

"I coach clients from diverse fitness backgrounds that have a desire to take their physical potential to the next level without hitting burnout and feeling broken. These hard-working clients encounter common struggles of hitting strength plateaus, slow recovery, fitness feels like a real grind, niggling injuries just won't go away, and not progressing as quickly as they would expect. How can we pursue fitness without compromising time, effort and health?
By developing a signature programme that offers clients an individual solution to overcome physical and mental barriers and to gain an appreciation of the simple and effective tools that are required to overcoming training plateaus and prevent injuries.
Through a holistic approach that goes beyond just addressing the physical aspects of strength and movement prerequisites. But also their wellbeing, personal life and the challenges that come with it. This allows us to connect better and for me to provide a versatile and balanced programme combining methods such as strength training in and out of a gym environment, mobility work that can be fitted in to suit the athletes schedule and breathe work for recovery and preparation."
At a young age Anthony started playing professional tennis until his early 20's. A passion for physical performance inspired a career in personal training with the purpose of exploring and understanding the human body.

Arab Israeli Conflict

Gumar Aguiar press conference 248.88.

Betar Jerusalem was finally able to focus on playing soccer rather than on its financial difficulties on Monday after sponsor Guma Aguiar transferred $4 million to the Israel Football Association's Budget Control Authority on behalf of the club.
Betar was heading towards bankruptcy administration last month, but a last-minute solution was found after club owner Arkadi Gaydamak agreed to relinquish control and allow Aguiar to fund the club.
The team celebrated the good news with a 3-1 victory over Maccabi Netanya in its Toto Cup opener later Monday evening.
"After a long summer we are happy that the club's budget for the 2009/10 season will be approved," Betar chairman Itzik Kornfein said.
"I would like to thank Mr. Guma Aguiar for the support he has given the club. Our goal over the past four months has been to find a solution which will allow Betar to continue to be a leading team in the league."
Aguiar was on hand to watch Betar's Toto Cup win over Maccabi Netanya in Rishon Lezion, where Jerusalem is hosting its matches while the pitch at Teddy Stadium is being resurfaced.
Idan Tal gave Betar the lead in the 30th minute when his left-footed shot took a slight deflection on its way to the back of the net. Alon Weisberg tied the score in the 53rd minute, but Betar claimed a deserved victory after Barak Itzhaki scored 10 minutes later and Hen Azriel wrapped up the win three minutes from time.
Also Monday, three Betar players (Aviram Bruchian, Barak Itzhaki, Amit Ben-Shushan) were named in the Israel squad for next Wednesday's friendly match against Northern Ireland in Belfast.
The national team will leave Israel for a training camp in London on Friday before flying on to Belfast on Monday.
Israel is currently in fourth position in Group 2 with nine points from six matches and will host Latvia and Luxembourg in its next 2010 World Cup qualifiers next month.

Q&A: The Legal Ruling on Cosmetic Surgery
Below is a Question that was sent through to the Ameer of Hizb ut-Tahrir, our eminent scholar Ata Bin Khalil Abu Al-Rashtah
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
Our eminent Shaikh – what is the legal ruling (Hukm Shari') on cosmetic surgery?
From Mourad Maalej (more…)
Q&A: The Aleppo Crisis and the Politicking behind it
Following is a question posed to the Amir of Hizb ut-Tahrir on matters relating to Turkey (and Erdogan's) moves regarding Syria and Russia, and an elaborated response from the Shaykh in kind. This Q&A was issued on the 7th of December, a few days before the final collapse of the resistance in Aleppo. It contains some points well worthy of consideration in relation to what has finally taken place in the besieged city.
Explaining the "Mujaddid" – the Reviver of Islam sent each Century
The Mujaddid, or Reviver, is a concept known to us through the ahadith. He is an individual or even group of people, known by his/their efforts, who/m Allah sends every century to revive what is abandoned from the Quran and Sunnah. Unlike the Prophets عليهم السلام the Mujaddid is not infallible, and he can not come with anything new. Here we present a piece adapted from a detailed response of the Amir of Hizb ut Tahrir, Shaykh Ata ibn Khalil abu al Rashta, to one who asked him regarding the hadith of the mujaddid.
Q&A: The American, Russia, and Iranian Dilemma in Syria
On the American, Russian and Iranian dilemma in Syria.
Q&A: Is it permissible for the Khalifah to impose taxes on Muslims?
We present here an answer from the Hizb's Ameer, Sheikh Ata Abu Al Rashta, on the question of taxation under the Islamic system of governance. (more…)
Q&A: The Motives behind the Leaked Panama Papers
The leaked Panama Papers are still the subject of discussion amongst the media and politicians, especially those named in the documents (more…)
Q&A: Iran's Role in the Region
Assalamu alaikum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu. Dear respected Shaykh, may Allah (swt) protect and safeguard you. Why has the United States allowed Iran to escalate in its relatively rapid diverse military capabilities which has become one of the more important countries in the region in terms of playing influential roles on the course of events in both Iraq, Syria, the Gulf and the enflamed region in general? What is the American policy in containing this evasive role? May Allah (swt) reward you. (more…)
The Tangible Effect of Duaa
Question: Assalamu alaikoum wa Rahmatuh Allahi wa Barakatuh dear sheikh, after this greeting, I would like you to help me in finding an answer to the matter of supplication (dua'a)… it is mentioned in the Holy Quran that Allah سبحانه وتعالى responds to the supplication (dua'a) of the person if he supplicates to Him سبحانه وتعالى. The Sunnah also showed us that the response to the supplication (dua'a) could be sooner or later, or is replaced with something better than it in Dunya or Akhira. The Hizb shows in the book of The Concepts of Hizb ut Tahrir that supplication (duaa) achieves a spiritual value but its effect is non-tangible results such as the reward. My question is how can you limit the effects of the supplication (duaa) to the reward only even though Allah سبحانه وتعالى can respond to the supplication (duaa) in the Dunya? May Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless you.
From Abu Abdallah Khalaf
Riba Money after Khilafah
Question: Assalamu alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,
A question from the book, The Institutions of State in the Khilafah (in Ruling and Administration) regarding money of Riba (usury) after the establishment of the Khalifah state of giving its capital to its owners … Question: What we will do with the money of Riba? Is it permissible for the state to confiscate it and invest it? Is the cash that comes from the property of Riba as banknotes is haram in itself, or is it due to the action?
From Safeer Al-Khilafah
Signing of the Peace and National Partnership Agreement in Yemen
Question: The recent developments in Yemen were ambiguous to me, particularly the signing of the Peace and National Partnership Agreement on 21/09/2014, as though these developments have shuffled the papers… How were the Houthis able to reach Sanaa and lead its power and influence without effective resistance from the authorities? Does it imply that the influence of the British in Yemen has ended, and America that supports the Houthis has become the influential initiator in Yemen or is it the sharing of influence? Please clarify these matters, May Allah reward you with goodness.

Hello Donnell
You forgot one tiny detail in your consideration: N or H0 scale track is not relevant, since that does not help much for TT scale.
It can be used as an indication what TT scale tracks could cost if TT community was as big as H0 or N.
You can never get to anything close to those prices by handlaying the track. Even if they provided the supplies free of charge! You have to add the time to your calculation. $40-60 per hour.
For the loop you have mentioned - if the material cost is around those $2.17/ft, you'd spend $40 on the material. That leaves $295 out of the A&D price for work, which is 5-7 hours. Would that be enough for handlaying 18.5' of track?
I know for sure that I would not be able to do that so fast. Therefore I go for Kuehn track and hope that Kuehn comes up with some acceptable turnouts soon. Maybe I can make a short section with A&D track for taking photos of rolling stock. I have some Filigran code60 track and it looks really good (it is not NA though).

Living in the Spiritual Light of Christ
There are people who think that living for self has made them successful. They think that their efforts alone are the source of their achievements. They have accomplished their goals and reached their mountaintops - but what then?
Whether rich or poor, follow the steps of your life's plan and they all end in one place: death. And what follows death? That day where each will stand before the Lord and give an account of what he has done. The Day of Judgment is coming, and from that day there is no escape.
So the question is: How do we know we are walking in the spiritual light of Christ? In Thessalonians 5, Paul says there are three ways to know that you have been transformed from spiritual darkness to spiritual light: renewed character, radical conduct, and reliable compensation.
Those who live in spiritual light have a renewed character. The old ways of living are done (see 2 Corinthians 5:17). Now, when we sin, we cannot rest. We cannot just forget our sin, but immediately we repent and turn from that sin and receive the Lord's forgiveness. Why? Because we are like someone who is wearing a white garb: even the smallest stain shows up and we cannot rest until we take care of it by the blood of Jesus Christ.
On the other hand, those who are living in spiritual darkness are like somebody who is dressed in filthy clothes; one more stain cannot be seen; one more stain does not make any difference.
Those who are awaiting the return of the Lord not only have renewed character, but radical conduct. According to the Apostle Paul, that person is walking by faith, not by sight. He stands firm against the schemes of the devil, not inviting the devil to come in and set up a stronghold in his life.
Believers who live in the spiritual light not only have renewed character and radical conduct - they also have a reliable compensation. They know that, in Christ, their destiny is sure; their reward is certain; their compensation is definite. Our eternal reward is based on the fact that we have accepted the death and the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ as our only hope for salvation - and because the blood of Christ covers us, we have no reason to fear.
Prayer: Lord, thank You for the guarantee of eternal life through Christ. Help me to live daily in the light, to put off sin, and to live every day for Your glory. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
"I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life" (John 8:12).

The present invention relates to dynamic range compensation in a wireless receiver, and more particularly, to a compensation scheme using received signal strength.
In wireless communications systems, the mobile receiver (such as a cell phone) can experience significant variations in the received signal strength of a signal that is transmitted by the base station transmitters. It is not unusual to experience a 70 dB variation from the strongest to the weakest signal strength. The variation is due to various factors, including the varying distance between the mobile receiver and the a base station, Rayleigh fading, and other operational variances.
Thus, the mobile receiver should have a means for compensating for this wide variation in received signal strength. In some mobile receivers, an automatic gain control circuit is used. While these circuits can be useful, they are still unable to fully compensate for the dynamic range in the received signal. For example, in the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) standard for digital cellular telephony, interleaving of data is employed. Because of this interleaving, a slow AGC is typically employed that cannot fully compensate for the full range of variation.
If the dynamic range of the received signal is not adequately compensated, this will significantly increase the difficulty in signal processing by the base band digital receiver, or will result in signal degradation due to saturation or truncation error.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a circuit for compensating for variations of dynamic range in a received signal in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a circuit for compensating for variations of dynamic range in a received signal in accordance with an alternative embodiment of the present invention.
FIGS. 3–15 are diagrams illustrating experimental simulation results using the methods and apparatus of the present invention.
The present invention describes a method for scaling a received signal having a wide dynamic range. By re-scaling the received signal, the received signal can be processed by the base band digital receiver without signal degradation. In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the invention. One skilled in the relevant art will recognize, however, that the invention can be practiced without one or more of the specific details, or with other methods, components, etc. In other instances, well-known structures or operations are not shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring aspects of various embodiments of the invention.
Reference throughout the specification to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. Thus, the appearances of the phrases "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" in various places throughout the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
FIG. 1 shows a portion of a wireless communications system 101 that includes a base station 103 and a mobile receiver 105. A signal transmitted by the base station 103 to the mobile receiver 105 is received and processed using its internal circuitry. Only the germane portions of the mobile receiver 105 are shown. It can be appreciated that the mobile receiver 105 contains many components, such as a keypad, screen, microphone, power source, etc. . . . . For the sake of clarity however, only those portions of the digital signal processing circuitry necessary for a full and complete explanation of the present invention is provided. Indeed, only the "base band" portion of the signal processing circuitry is shown in FIG. 1.
The mobile receiver 105 includes a bit shifter 107, a receive filter 109, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) 111, a received signal strength estimator 113, a scaler 115, a matched filter 117, a channel estimator 119, a maximum likelihood sequence estimator (MLSE) 121, and a rescaler/Viterbi decoder 123. As will be seen in further detail below, these components are operative to scale a received signal to act as a fast automatic gain control circuit.
In operation, the signal transmitted by the base station 103 is received by the mobile receiver 105. The mobile receiver includes an antenna (not shown) and a RF module (not shown) that performs demodulation of the received analog signal. As can be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the RF module is operative to demodulate the received signal and output I (real) and Q (imaginary) components of the received complex analog signal. The I and Q components are then provided to a "base band" portion for further processing.
For the sake of clarity, the RF module is not shown, but can be appreciated as being conventional in the art. The output of the RF module are the I and Q components of the received analog signal. The I and Q components are provided to receive filter 109 for filtering. After filtration, the I and Q components are provided to ADC 111, which serves to convert the I and Q components from analog format to digital format. In one embodiment, the ADC 111 provides a sixteen bit representation of the I and Q analog signals at a sampling rate of 540,000 samples per second in one embodiment. However, a slower sampling rate of 270,000 samples per second may be used. Thus, the output from the ADC 111 are two series (one for I and one for Q) of 16 bit digital words representing the received analog base band signal. The output of the ADC 111 is also referred to as the base band digital signal.
The output of the ADC 111 is then provided to the RSSI estimator 113 and to bit shifter 107. The RSSI estimator 113 can be of conventional design and provides an indication as to the magnitude of the received signal as embodied by the output of the ADC 111. In one embodiment, the RSSI estimator 113 merely takes the squares of the I and Q components for each sample and adds them together for a magnitude for that sample. To get an average power, the magnitudes for each sample are averaged. In short, the RSSI estimator 113 is any device that can provide an indication of the magnitude of the digital signals output by the ADC 111, and thus, the received signal strength.
The scaler 115 receives the output of the RSSI estimator and based upon this information, provides a scaling value "n" that is indicative as to how much to scale the 16 bit digital word from the ADC 111. The scaler 115 can be implemented in one embodiment as a look up table that correlates the estimation signal from the RSSI estimator 113 to an appropriate scaling value "n". In one embodiment, the scaling value "n" is calculated for each "burst" of received data. For example, in a time division multiple access system, each burst can correspond to a specific time slot in successive frames.
In another embodiment, the scaler 115 also incorporates the use of a reference value (either as an input or prestored in memory). The reference value may be thought of as the nominal signal strength. Thus, if the RSSI estimator 113 provides an indication that is above the reference value, then the signal from the ADC 111 should be scaled down by providing, in one embodiment, a negative value for "n". Conversely, if the RSSI estimator 113 provides an indication that is below the reference value, then the signal from the ADC 111 should be scaled up by providing a positive value for "n". Further, the amount by which the RSSI estimator 113 output is above or below the reference value can be used to determining the specific magnitude of the scaling value "n".
In one embodiment, the scaling value n for a scaling factor 2n is determined by: (½)*log2(Pest/Pref), where Pest is the estimated average signal power provided by the RSSI estimator 113 and Pref is the reference power level. As seen in further detail below, the operation of the scaling method of one embodiment of the present invention is as follows:
Thus, the value "n" is provided to the bit shifter 107 and relates to the number of bits that the bit shifter 107 is to shift the 16 bit digital words from the ADC 111. The bit shifter 107 is operative to shift the 16 bit words either towards the left (corresponding to adding bits on the least significant bit side) or the right (corresponding to adding bits on the most significant bit side). In one embodiment, if a positive value for "n" is received, then the bit shifter 107 should shift the 16 bit words towards the left by the value "n". If a negative value for "n" is received, then the bit shifter 107 should shift the 16 bit words towards the right by the value "n".
As an example, assuming that the 16 bit word input to the bit shifter 107 is "0001110001111110", then if the word is shifted three bits to the left, the resulting word would be "1110001111110000". Similarly, if the word is shifted three bits to the right, the resulting word would be "0000001110001111". The effect of shifting the word three bits to the left is to multiply the decimal value of the word by 2n, where n is the number of bits shifted. The effect of shifting the word three bits to the right is to multiply the decimal value of the word by 2−n, where n is the number of bits shifted. Note that there is some minor rounding error for small values.
This type of scaling using the integer scaling value "n" and a bit shifter is an efficient means of implementing a multiplication or a division function in the digital domain. Alternatively, the scaling factor may be an analog decimal factor that is used to multiple or divide the analog version of the output of ADC 111. However, this approach would require further circuitry to effectuate the scaling. In short, the present invention teaches the scaling of the received signal (in the analog or digital domain) based upon the received signal strength and is not limited to the specific digital implementation shown in FIG. 1 or 2.
Once the bit shifter 107 has performed the requisite shifting, the shifted 16 bit words are provided to the matched filter 117 and the channel estimator 119. The matched filter 117 and channel estimator 119 are well known in the art and are operative, in conjunction with the MLSE 121, to perform equalization of the base band digital signal. The combination of the matched filter 117, the channel estimator 119, and the MLSE 121 is also referred to as an equalizer.
As seen in FIG. 1, the output of the MLSE 121 (referred to as an equalized digital signal) is then provided to rescaler/Viterbi decoder 123. In one embodiment, the MLSE 121 outputs an equalized digital signal that comprises a sign bit and a plurality of soft bits. Those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the sign bit is indicative of whether the digital data is a "one" or a "zero". Further, as is known in the art, the soft bits are an indication as to the quality of the estimation.
In order to avoid the performance loss due to the signal scaling, prior to input into a Viterbi channel decoder 129, the equalized digital signal output by the MLSE 121 is scaled back by 22n. This is referred to as resealing. Note that in this embodiment, the resealing is performed using a resealing valude of "2n", i.e., twice that of the original scaling value "n". This is because in many prior art channel estimators, including the particular one used in FIG. 1, the channel estimator 119 will square the scaled digital base band signal. Thus, in order to reverse the scaling by the bit shifter 107 and the squaring by the channel estimator, the resealing should be done with a factor of 2−2n.
The resealing can take one of two forms, referred to as the Shift-Take method (ST) and Take-Shift method (TS).
Shift-Take (ST) Method:
This method is shown in FIG. 1. The concept is that the output of MLSE 121, referred to as Δ, is first shifted back by 2n bits. This can be expressed as Δ′=Δ/22n, where Δ′ is the re-shifted version of Δ. After the shifting, the k soft bits are taken from Δ′ starting from a position Nopt, where Nopt is the optimal position to start taking the k soft bits. This is equivalent to taking k bits from Δ starting from the position of N=Nopt−2n. The parameter "k" is predetermined and is the number of soft bits used by the Viterbi decoder. The k soft bits are then input into the deinterleaver 127. The deinterleaver 127 is operative as in the prior art and serves to reconstruct the transmitted data. In many wireless communications systems, the data to be transmitted is first interleaved at the transmitter by an interleaver. Thus, a deinterleaver is used to reconstruct the data. The deinterleaver 127 in the GSM protocol is a standard circuit/device dictated by the protocol. The data stream from the deinterleaver 127 is then input into the Viterbi decoder 129. The Viterbi decoder 129 is of conventional design.
Take-Shift (TS) Method:
This method is shown in FIG. 2. Note that FIG. 2 is substantially identical to FIG. 1 except for the configuration of the rescaling/Viterbi decoder 123. In this embodiment, the k soft bits are first taken out from the output Δ of the MLSE 121 starting from the position of Nopt. After deinterleaving, the k soft bits are then shifted by 2n bits and the result is provided to the Viterbi decoder 129.
The two rescaling methods ST and TS were compared using simulation techniques. For a given SNR, the number of scaling bits n is almost constant (e.g., for SNR=3 dB, n=1, and for SNR=9 dB, n=2). For example, we combined the 3 dB and 9 dB bursts as pattern of '939393'. FIGS. 3˜6 shows the BER performance for the different burst pattern. Note that in this simulation, the simulation is only run on the segment of the channel condition of interest, referred to as "local simulation" Here, we fixed number of soft bits as 3. Simulation results indicate that the resealing method ST achieved almost the same performance as TS.
Similar simulations were performed where the simulation goes through a time-variant fading channel. This is referred to as a global simulations, the results of which are shown in FIGS. 7˜15. Three types of channel testing models where considered: HT100, TU50 and RA130. All the simulations were performed under the assumptions of a GSM1800 system, ½ convolutional coding, and an eight burst interleaver (this is equivalent to the FACCH logical channel structure).
First examined was the BER performance of ST and TS schemes with 15 soft bits. The results in FIG. 7 show that both ST and TS methods approach the BER performance of a floating point system. Also compared was the BER performance of a floating-point system with fixed point system using 7 soft bits for both ST and TS methods. The results are illustrated in FIG. 8. Again, the performance loss of the fixed point system compared with the floating point system is negligible. The BER performance of the ST scheme with 7 soft bits for different Nst is shown in FIG. 9. We found that the performance is not sensitive to the Nst when a large number of soft bits are used in later Viterbi decoding.
For the three soft bits case, the BER performance of ST and TS schemes was examined for different values of Nst. From the simulation results shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, it was found that Nopt for ST is equal to 9 or 10, and Nopt is equal to 12 for TS. The performance comparison of ST and TS with Nopt is shown in FIG. 12. We observed that both schemes using 3 soft bits can still achieve good enough performance, and the degradation comparing with the floating point system is less than 0.5 dB.
For this case, the performance of ST and TS schemes were compared with 7 soft bits. Here we use Nst=14. The simulation results are shown in FIG. 13. Also considered was the ST scheme with 3 soft bits for Nst=10, 12, 14 in FIG. 14. Again, it was found that the performance loss of the ST scheme with 3 soft bits is also less than 0.5 dB.
Finally, the BER performance of ST with 7- and 3 soft bits for RA130 is shown in FIG. 15. The same performance results as HT100 and TU50 cases are observed in this case, i.e. MLSE with 3 soft bits, results in less than 0.5 dB performance degradation.
From above investigation results, it is concluded that:
While a specific embodiment of the present invention has been described above, it can be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art that other modifications can be made while maintaining the spirit and scope of the invention. From the foregoing, it will be appreciated that specific embodiments of the invention have been described herein for purposes of illustration, but that various modifications may be made without deviating from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the invention is not limited except as by the appended claims.

Mrs Kuteh commenced employment with Gravesham NHS Trust on 1st April 2007. She worked as a band 5 Junior Sister in the Intensive therapy Unit. Mrs Kuteh is a committed Christian. In her role, she was responsible for carrying out assessments of patients who were due to undergo surgery. She used a pro-forma document to carry out these assessments and was required to make a simple enquiry as to the patient's religion and note the response.
In March and April 2016, patients had complained that Mrs Kutah had initiated unwanted religious conversations with them. On 11 April 2016, the Matron spoke to Mrs Kuteh to express her concern that she had been having unwanted religious discussions with patients. Mrs Kutah assured the Matron that she would not discuss religion with patients again.
There were two further matters of concern in May. The first, a patient complained she was given a bible and told Mrs Kuteh would pray for her. The second, involved a patient complaining Mrs Kuteh was preaching to her and made her feel uncomfortable.
Mrs Kuteh was suspended on 10 June 2016 and was informed in writing of the three allegations which were to be investigated:
· Repeated misconduct in that she failed to follow a reasonable management instruction that was discussed with her on 11 April 2016.
· Inappropriate behaviour/conduct that involved unwanted discussions on the topic of religion which resulted in verbal complaints from patients (on 16 May, 31 May and 3 June 2016).
· Breach of para. 20.7 of the Nursing and Midwifery Council ("NMC") Code in relation to making sure that she did not express her personal beliefs (including political, religious or moral beliefs) to people in an inappropriate way.
Following an investigation and disciplinary hearing, she was dismissed with immediate effect. Mrs Kuteh appealed but her appeal was not upheld.
Mrs Kuteh brought a claim for unfair dismissal in the employment tribunal.
Employment Tribunal Decision
The employment tribunal dismissed Mrs Kuteh's claim alleging unfair dismissal. They found she was dismissed for the potentially fair reason of her conduct and the investigation and disciplinary hearing had both been entirely fair and reasonable.
The tribunal concluded the overall sanction imposed, that of dismissal, was within the band of reasonable responses in light of the employer's view that the incidents amounted to gross misconduct.
The EAT and The Court of Appeal both dismissed Mrs Kuteh's appeals.

"keep on living" le tigre tee
I have been wanting to do a Le Tigre T-shirt for a LONG time. I thought that it would be a great follow-up to my Bikini Kill Kitty design. The actual design of this tee eluded me for a long time. I kept trying things that didn't work. But, finally, a design I'm LOVING!
The inspiration for this design came from the song "Keep on Living" which is on the Le Tigre album, "Feminist Sweepstakes." The song deals with "coming out" and a much better overview of the song and the lyrics are here:

Darren Aronofsky's NOAH Could End up at Paramount Pictures
It looks like director Darren Aronofsky's epic biblical adaptation of the story of Noah could end up at Paramount Pictures. The studio is moving closer and closer to actually sealing the deal. The film project has been shopped around Hollywood, and Christian Bale is in talks to play the lead role in the film.
Aronofsky wrote the initial script for the film that is now being rewritten by John Logan (Gladiator). The film is set up at New Regency, and currently has a budget of $130 million dollars. This is a passion project for Aronofsky, and it actually looks like it is going to be brought to life, which is very cool. I'm looking forward to see how this film turns out.
As we previously reported, this is a film we know that Aronofsky has been very passionate about. He's already turned it into comic book adaptation which is set to be released next year. According to the director the inspiration for Noah came from a 1976 Sunn Pictures documentary called In Search of Noah's Ark that he watched when he was kid, and he is a "huge fan." In a few previous interviews he talked about his vision of Noah saying,
Noah was the first person to plant vineyards and drink wine and get drunk. It's there in the Bible - it was one of the first things he did when he reached land. There was some real survivor's guilt going on there. He's a dark, complicated character. The tragedies we perform on each other are so well reported. Quite clearly, the planet is dying, and we are dying on it.
I was stunned going back and realizing how dirty some of those stories are. They're not PG in any way. They're all about sleeping with your brother's sister who gives you a child who you don't know. That kind of stuff got censored out of our religious upbringing.
He went on to share his thoughts on the script,
It's a great script and it's huge… It's the end of the world and it's the second most famous ship after the Titanic. So I'm not sure why any studio won't want to make it… I think it's really timely because it's about environmental apocalypse which is the biggest theme, for me, right now for what's going on on this planet. So I think it's got these big, big themes that connect with us. Noah was the first environmentalist. He's a really interesting character. Hopefully they'll let me make it.

text: Al-Malahim, the media branch of al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) — the Yemen-based regional node of al Qaeda — released a new video May 26 alongside the 13th edition of its publication, Echo of Battle. Entitled "America, The Last Trap," the video includes a lengthy statement from AQAP military commander Qasim al-Raymi. The well-produced, approximately one-hour video includes familiar faces along with less known individuals. One such newcomer, Fahd al-Quso — wanted in connected with the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole — threatened attacks against the continental United States, its embassy in Yemen and warships in the surrounding waters. This is the first unequivocal evidence of links between AQAP and the wanted militant, though his exact connection with the group is unclear. The imprisoned militant Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, who attempted to destroy a U.S. airliner on Christmas Day 2009, appeared in a clip speaking about jihad and the West and training in the Yemeni desert. The video also eulogized Muhammad Umayr al-Awlaqi, well-known for an appearance on Al Jazeera threatening the United States in front of a large crowd, who died in a December 2009 airstrike against his hideout in Abyan. It also confirmed the deaths of Abdallah al-Mihdar, head of AQAP in the Shabwah governorate, who died in clashes with security forces in January, and the Afghan veteran Mohammad Saleh al-Kazimi, who also died in the 2009 Abyan strike and whose corpse was shown on the video. Appearing for the first time was former Guantanamo Bay inmate No. 184 and current No. 85 on the Saudi most-wanted list, Othman Ahmad Othman al-Ghamdi. The 31-year-old Saudi-born militant fought in Afghanistan, where coalition authorities arrested him in April 2006. After four years at Guantanamo, al-Ghamdi was sent back to his homeland where he eventually enrolled in, and graduated from, Saudi Arabia's rehabilitation program. Shortly after his release, he traveled to Yemen, where he joined AQAP. The video revealed him as a new AQAP leader. Though his exact role remains unknown, he may have replaced a senior figure killed in recent strikes. Al-Ghamdi's newfound role raises some interesting questions about AQAP's leadership. For instance, numerous rumors have referenced the mysterious absence and possible death of the group's leader, Nasir al-Wahayshi. An unverified audio message purportedly from al-Wahayshi was distributed to jihadist/extremist websites May 16 in which he praised Anwar al-Awlaki and threatened reprisals if the U.S.-born cleric is killed. The absence of images of al-Wahayshi suggest he is either in hiding or was in fact killed, though sources in Yemen claim he remains alive. In any case, even though Yemen's operations against AQAP continue, the group remains a credible threat to security in Yemen and perhaps beyond.
