text: Lawmakers give preliminary OK to anti-union measure – Day 2 By: Luige del Puerto August 10, 2010 , 2:03 pm The Senate and the House gave preliminary approval Aug. 10 to a measure seeking to guarantee the right of a secret ballot in union elections. The proposal, expected to be on the Nov. 2 ballot as Proposition 113, is meant to be a preemptive strike against possible federal legislation that would make it easier for organizers to form unions.

My name is Archer but everyone calls me Avery. I'm a perpetual college student working to be an architect politician lawyer. At least thats this months life plan. When I'm not studying I love to enjoy the outdoors, reading, movies, and hanging out with friends and being lazy. I live and am from Colorado and think it is the best place in the world to live. If you think you know a better place please let me know. If you want to know anything else just ask or cyberstalk me.
Do you have a reservation?
So it's Saturday night and it's gorgeous out so I was in the mood for something sweet. Since its still pretty early I run down the street to crave a dessert bar and the new snobby attendant asked if I had a reservation. Not like I'm trying to act uppity but I was coming to crave before they were trendy and it's only 9 fucking 30 just be happy I'm here. But it's ok cause my lavender creme brûlée. On second thought fuck it imma go to the cheese cake factory and let the dulce del leche make it all right

Access AVCHD .mts files HELP!
I have a similar situation. I deleted a few AVCHD(hmc150) files from an SD card (I was in a hurry and couldn't sort through them all), and now FCP 7 won't recognize the card in "Log and Transfer"!!! I can still view all but 10 clips when the card's in my camera, and the card shows all the files in a finder window. When I try to create a custom path to these files, I get a message that says, ""MTS files" contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media." ... Do i need to recover these files via recovery software?? (if so, which one? I have Mac OS X 10.7) or can I unzip, convert, repair, these clips otherwise? please help! thank you -Sam
Access AVCHD .mts files HELP!
You have a couple of options that I know of.

Historical Profiles - Madame D'Éon de Beaumont
Born Charles-Geneviève-Louis-Auguste-André-Timothée d'Éon de Beaumont, the Chevalier d'Eon was born on October 5th, 1728. D'Eon had an illustrious career as a diplomat, spy, and censor under Louis XV's reign.
After an ambassador, the Court of Guerchy, demoted her in rank and attempted to drug her in 1763, d'Éon published most of the secret diplomatic correspondence about her recall under the title Lettres, mémoires, et négociations in 1764, disavowing Guerchy and calling him unfit for his job.
This breach of diplomatic secret was scandalous to the point of being unheard of, but d'Éon had not yet published everything - she kept the King's secret invasion documents and those relative to the Secret du Roi as "insurance" - and the French government became very cautious in its dealings with d'Éon, even when d'Éon sued Guerchy for attempted murder. With the invasion documents in hand, d'Éon held the king in check.
In 1766, Louis XV granted her a pension for her services (or as a pay-off for silence) and gave her a 12,000-livre annuity. D'Éon continued to work as a spy, but lived in political exile in London. Her possession of the king's secret letters protected her against further actions, but d'Éon could not return to France.
D'Éon claimed to be physically not a man, but a woman, and demanded recognition by the government as such. King Louis XVI and his court complied, but demanded that d'Éon dress appropriately and wear women's clothing.
D'Éon participated in fencing tournaments until she was seriously wounded in 1796. Her last years were spent with a widow, Mrs. Cole.

Lenovo to stop buying hardware companies
Summary: Chinese PC company will now turn its focus on enterprise software and IT services as it aims to replicate its PC success in other industries.
Lenovo will stop acquiring hardware companies and turn its focus to software and IT services.
In a blog post Monday, ZDNet Asia's sister site ZDNet China cited Liu Chuanzhi, chairman of Lenovo's parent company Legend Holdings, as saying the PC maker will "definitely not" be buying Hewlett-Packard's PC division and will stop acquiring hardware companies in general.
Instead, the company will target businesses in the enterprise software and IT services space, Liu said, who added he hoped to replicate the company's PC success in different industries.
This intent was bore out last week when Lenovo bought over U.S. software company Stoneware to boost its cloud services. It also partnered EMC in August to gain a bigger share of the server and networking storage market.
Despite the shift in focus for acquisitions, the chairman believes Lenovo will become the top PC maker by the second quarter of its fiscal year. This confidence stems from the company's acquisition of Brazilian electronics company Digibras earlier this month.

Interim Superintendent Lonnie Palmer recommended the school board make cuts and share services to reduce non-instructional costs at Berne-Knox-Westerlo and offset spending on training for teachers and additional instructors.
GUILDERLAND — The school board at its February meeting adopted a tax break for veterans, heard about progress on a $17 million building project, and gave budget preferences as a prelude to the superintendent's presentation of her 2014-15 proposal tonight.
The school board has not yet convened a committee that traditionally combs through the spending plan starting in November. In recent meetings, the board and superintendent have discussed a modified timeline for the budget.
Peter Shunney, Berne-Knox-Westerlo's building and maintenance supervisor for more than 11 years, is concerned he won't be able to keep his role in his department.
Faced with reduced resources and a government reform agenda, Superintendent Marie Wiles wants school leaders, rather than outside pressures, to define Guilderland's future.
The year started with a financial audit that gave a poor picture of the town's records, but its summer was spent with a cordial picnic and stream-bank repair that brought volunteers together.
Administrators want to increase time for teachers to analyze data from their classrooms and create alternative education classrooms during the day and evenings.
Guilderland School Board members' backgrounds informed the recommendations they made for closing a $2.7 million budget gap for next year.
Supervisor Valerie Lounsbury said the town's preliminary 2014 spending plan is $703 under the state-set tax cap of 1.66 percent on increases to the levy.
At the Nov. 6 town board meeting, Knox authorized an agreement for 4G Long Term Evolution wireless communication service on its nearby tower used by Verizon and AT&T.

Social support, social stigma, health, coping, and quality of life in older gay men with HIV
With the advent of antiretroviral therapy, people with HIV/AIDS are living longer and managing their HIV infection as would an individual with any other chronic disease. As life expectancy increases, quality of life has progressed as an emerging issue for older adults with HIV/AIDS. A majority of people living with HIV in the U.S. are still gay men, who thus comprise a large portion of those who are growing older with the disease.

Kashiwazaki, Japan
By Kim Kyung-hoon
"Sleeping nuclear giants" – That was my first impression when I visited the world's biggest nuclear power station, Kashiwazaki Kariwa power plant in Japan's Niigata Prefecture.
With seven reactors which can produce a total of 8,212 megawatts of electricity, this power station is officially registered as the largest nuclear power station in the Guinness Book of Records. But the reality of the power station is much different than its reputation. Two of its reactors were shut down for a time after the 2007 earthquake and the remaining reactors were taken offline for safety checks and maintenance due to public concerns about the safety of nuclear energy in the quake-prone country after Fukushima's nuclear disaster.
However its operator Tokyo Electronic Power Co (TEPCO) hopes to get this power plant operating because they are overwhelmed by the soaring cost of fuel as well as radiation cleanup costs and compensation payments to displaced residents. TEPCO invited the Reuters multimedia team into the nuclear power plant in order to show their upgraded safety practice.
The tour of the nuclear power plant started as we passed through the tightly secured main gate and we entered the nuclear station which has been the scene of countless battles against the invisible threat of radiation.
Here inside the reactor building each worker carries their own personal radiation gauge and full-body screenings are a common daily practice for them. Journalists are not exempt from this routine. We had to wear a helmet and goggles along with thick gloves and socks when we entered the No.6 reactor building.

A New Way to Assess Student Learning
I'm "reflecting" a lot these days. My tenure review is a few months away, and it's time for me to prove (in one fell swoop) that my students are learning. The complexity of this testimonial overwhelms me because in the context of the classroom experience, there are multiple sources of data and no clear-cut formula for truth.
Four Lessons about Learning Discovered on a Chairlift
Chemistry professor Steven M. Wright has written a one-page essay about his niece, Julia, learning how to downhill ski. She was ready for her first ride on the chairlift and Wright was helping her. He's a professor so he covered the topic in a well-organized, easy-to-understand way. It was a short, five minute lecture that ended with a repeat of the main point, "keep your ski tips up when you get on the lift."
Tips for Writing Good Multiple-Choice Questions
I remember with horror and embarrassment the first multiple-choice exam I wrote. I didn't think the students were taking my course all that seriously, so I decided to use the first exam to show just how substantive the content really was. I wrote long, complicated stems and followed them with multiple answer options and various combinations of them. And it worked. Students did poorly on the exam. I was pleased until I returned the test on what turned out to be one of the longest class periods of my teaching career. I desperately needed the advice that follows here.
Examining Your Multiple-Choice Questions
As Ron Berk (known for his pithy humor) observes, the multiple-choice question "holds world records in the categories of most popular, most unpopular, most used, most misused, most loved and most hated." According to one source I read, multiple-choice questions were first used around the time of World War I to measure the abilities of new Army recruits. As class sizes have grown and the demands on teacher time expanded, they have become the favorite testing tool in higher education.
How Can Rubrics Make Grading Easier and Faster?
If there's one thing faculty and students have in common, it's a desire for better grades. Linda Suskie, author of Assessing Student Learning: A Common Sense Guide, explains practical ways rubrics can improve your grading practices.
How Can I Make My Multiple Choice Tests More Effective?
In this 20 Minute Mentor program, Suskie demonstrates how multiple choice tests can be used effectively to measure the different types of learning that higher education requires, from memorized knowledge to conceptual understanding to thinking skills.
Learning from Mistakes: A Different Approach to Partial Credit
When you are a math teacher you are often faced with the dilemma of whether to assign partial credit to a problem that is incorrect, but that demonstrates some knowledge of the topic. Should I give half-credit? Three points out of five? My answer has typically been to give no credit…at first. However, taking a page from my colleagues in the English department (and grad school), I do allow for revisions, which ends up being a much better solution.
A Different Kind of Final
Last semester I implemented a different kind of final exam. In the past I have used the standard multiple-choice and short-answer exams. I was thinking about making a change when I discovered Beyond Tests and Quizzes: Creative Assessment in the College Classroom, edited by Richard J. Mezeske and Barbara A. Mezeske. The second chapter, "Concept Mapping: Assessing Pre-Service Teachers' Understanding and Knowledge," describes an assessment method that tests higher-level thinking. The author shared his experience using concept maps as a final exam, included an example of the final exam project, offered rubrics for grading, and discussed the advantages and disadvantages of the strategy. I decided this was the change I was going to make.
How to Create Assessments for the Flipped Classroom

what to buy
The Alienware brand has long been considered the cream of the crop when it comes to portable gaming. That holds true with the fourth revision of the M17x, which packs the latest and greatest processors and graphics cards along with a competitive price point. Most reviewers again name it the best gaming laptop you can buy right now.
Powers through anything you throw at it. The base model of the M17x packs a third-generation Intel Core i7-3630QM processor, 6 GB of RAM, a 500 GB hard drive and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 660M GPU. That alone can handle virtually all computing tasks effortlessly, but step up to the $2,600 configuration examined by most reviewers -- which upgrades practically every aspect of the machine, most notably the GPU, to the Nvidia GTX 680M -- and you can play even the most demanding games at totally smooth frame rates, including "Battlefield 3" at Ultra settings. However, with great power comes poor portability; like most gaming laptops, the M17x is plagued by a short battery life.
A beast to lug around, but comfortable when stationary. At nearly 12 pounds including the adapter, you won't want to move the Alienware M17x around too often. Critics say the touchpad and keyboard are full-sized and top-notch, but the keyboard and fan areas can become hot to the touch during extended gaming or watching HD videos. The M17x includes more ports than most notebooks, with HDMI-in and -out, four USB 3.0 ports and much more.
It's a looker. As far as gaming laptops go, critics say the M17x's case is attractive, complete with a fully customizable backlit keyboard. By default, the laptop comes with a 1,600-by-900-pixel LCD screen that reviewers say is perfectly fine, but most recommend upgrading to the true 1,080p display for the best high-resolution results. Audio also gets high marks for its clarity and volume.
Build quality could be better. Dell backs its Alienware laptops with a one-year warranty but fails to win a Readers' Choice award at PCMag.com, which considers reliability. Last year PCMag.com noted a slightly above-average defect rate for Alienware computers, which is fairly common with high-end gaming notebooks. Laptop Magazine has a bad experience with Dell's phone support, but Alienware has a different phone number for support and staffers don't test that one. Historically, Alienware has offered good tech support.
A good value for a gaming laptop. Few notebooks offer this much pixel-pushing gaming oomph for this low of a price, say several reviewers.

Review Credibility: Good PC Pro gives the M17x R4 a Recommended award, but has a harder time calling the laptop a "value" considering its sky-high price tag.

Baltimore Ravens star nose tackle Haloti Ngata missed last week's game against the Chicago Bears with a knee injury after being a game-time decision, and he first suffered the knee injury the prior week against the Cincinnati Bengals. Ngata played through the pain, but he was unable to play the week after. It was a bit of a surprise to see him miss the game against the Bears with the knee injury, and it would also be a surprise for him to miss today's big game against the New York Jets.
But even though Ngata plans on playing and is largely expected to play, there is still a chance that he is inactive today. According to a league source close to Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio, Haloti Ngata will be a game-time decision today with a left knee injury after being able to practice on Thursday and Friday (he missed Wednesday's practice).
It's not a surprise to hear that Ngata is a game-time decision, but it's still disappointing to hear that he will need clearance at pre-game warm-ups in order to play today. I think we'll most likely see Ngata out there, but be prepared for a second straight week of no Ngata on the Ravens defensive line; there are no guarantees that he will play.
The Ravens also listed star cornerback Lardarius Webb and star linebacker Daryl Smith as questionable for today's game, but both players will start. Having Ngata in the fold would be a huge boost to the Ravens run defense against a hard-nosed Jets rushing attack led by Chris Ivory (the Jets love running and will lean on it with Geno Smith struggling), and Ngata would also help the Ravens interior pass rush out and help put Smith on his toes. Smith struggles mightily when under pressure, and Elvis Dumervil and Terrell Suggs could really mess with his head.
Again, everyone expects Haloti Ngata to play today, but keep an eye out on his status just in case. If he does play, that is great news for the Ravens, and he will battle it out with Jets elite center Nick Mangold. With the Jets at 5-5 and the Ravens at 4-6, today's game is extremely important for the Ravens to win in the battle for the final playoff spot in the AFC.

Our students know that learning and critical thinking are essential for tackling today's complex health challenges. Through globalhealthU, they put that belief into action.
globalhealthU, our signature global health and leadership curriculum, takes learning from the classroom into the world.
How it works
"GlobeMed, to me, has been the foundation for my education. It has been in many ways more important than any class I could ever take on global health."
- Sarah Milligan, University of Rochester '12
GlobeMed students at the National Office work with experts across fields and disciplines to design the year-long global health and leadership development curriculum. Students at each chapter are trained as "globalhealthU Coordinators" to lead their fellow chapter members through the curriculum and engage their broader campus.
At weekly meetings throughout the year, our network of students follow the curriculum together. Chapter members analyze case studies, explore opposing views, and exchange ideas through small group discussions and interactive exercises. Ongoing feedback between chapters and the National Office enables the network to strengthen the curriculum year after year.
Through public events such as film screenings, debates, exhibits, and demonstrations, students engage their broader campus and community. Together, they confront the state of health and human rights today and ask "Why? What is my role?"
The curriculum
The 2013-2014 curriculum models an intentional shift away from top-down, siloed approaches to global health. We provide a framework of overarching ideas which guide students towards a systems-level understand of health, while integrating the voices of their partner organizations and communities. The structure of the framework remains flexible by putting the responsibility relevant topics to the Chapter themselves.
The framework categorizes critical questions into three themes:
Why are we here?
The ghU curriculum allows students to discern their own personal values through the contemplation of different approaches to global health equity. Each conversation is crafted to include every voice in the chapter and community to stimulate meaningful discussion and inspire thoughtful leaders.
Where are we now?
Students will identify and explore the multiple contributing factors to health disparities worldwide by engaging in network wide conversations provided by the ghU companion guide. These conversations will bring in other perspectives – reaching across borders, sectors and generations to create a diverse and inclusive discussion.
How do we address the situation?
By experiencing globalhealthU sessions weekly, students are exposed to different practices of effective action combating inequity in the world and can make connections between discussion content and the work of their partner organization.
The results
9 out of 10 students reported that globalhealthU has increased their knowledge of global health issues.
‣ Students gain a diverse perspective on issues of global health, creating a solid foundation of knowledge that spans a range of disciplines.
‣ Critical thinking skills developed through globalhealthU enable students to build a meaningful relationship with their partner organization and impact community members for years to come.
‣ After students graduate, they apply the knowledge and skills they learned in globalhealthU to become an advocate for global health, regardless of their field.
World Day of Social Justice
The United Nations' World Day of Social Justice is observed annually on February 20 to bring attention to efforts tackling poverty and inequity. Inspired by the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., "injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere," GlobeMed chapters unite each year to commemorate this day through events including photo stories, guerrilla marketing campaigns, and nationwide teach-ins.
What students are saying
"This year, thanks to the diverse resources provided by our national office and hard work of our globalhealthU coordinators and co-presidents, our discussions reached a new level of depth and relevance. globalhealthU became a source of consistency in our busy schedule and a time to reflect on the meanings of our actions, not to mention a constant forum for ongoing debate and interaction."
– Anu Ramachandaran '13 and Lu Zhang '12, University of Southern California
Recommended reading
Last winter, students across the network read, discussed, and blogged about the book The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down, by Anne Fadiman.

The proton exchange processes between water and solutes containing exchangeable protons have recently become of interest for monitoring pH effects, detecting cellular mobile proteins and peptides, and enhancing the detection sensitivity of various low-concentration endogenous and exogenous species. In this work, the analytic expressions for water exchange (WEX) filter spectroscopy, chemical exchange-dependent saturation transfer (CEST), and amide proton transfer (APT) experiments are derived by the use of Bloch equations with exchange terms. The effects of the initial states for the system, the difference between a steady state and a saturation state, and the relative contributions of the forward and backward exchange processes are discussed. The theory, in combination with numerical calculations, provides a useful tool for designing experimental schemes and assessing magnetization transfer (MT) processes between water protons and solvent-exchangeable protons. As an example, the case of endogenous amide proton exchange in the rat brain at 4.7 T is analyzed in detail.

Port has changed as of 7.2.1 (or earlier)
Do these settings work in conjunction with or override Bonjour? Bonjour seems to work very well when I connect my Windows XP machines to our two USB-connected HP LaserJet printers. I actually had to uninstall and reinstall Bonjour on one of those PCs, but it worked perfectly after that (evidently some kind of quirky conflict, which makes sense because I need to clean out that cluttered machine). In any event, please comment if someone knows whether these settings are essentially the same as Bonjour, whether they override those Bonjour settings, or whether they are totally separate (and if so, would there be a conflict?). Thank you.

City begins designing NE Gateway
Nov 12, 2012 | 1 Comment
By Nicole Montesano
Of the News-Register
McMinnville's city planners are beginning design work on the Northeast Gateway District, north of downtown along Alpine and Lafayette avenues, in preparation for implementation of a downtown urban renewal plan the city council will begin considering Tuesday.
The council adopted the Northeast Gateway plan in June. The aim is to renovate and revitalize an area that currently is a mixture of undeveloped land and streets, industrial warehouses and facilities, homes and commercial businesses.
Although the city wants to retain the mixed uses, it wants a better distribution and accommodation for them. It wants to make the area more attractive, and to encourage new businesses to start up, or locate there.
The staff is working in conjunction with the city's Northeast Gateway Committee. It is starting with the area around Alpine Avenue.
"We're going to look at the uses within the area, and how some of the changes recommended in the final plan will affect certain properties down the road," said Associate Planner Jennifer Lynagh. A major goal of the work, she said, "is to make it very human-scale and pedestrian-friendly when it's built out."
That involves amending zoning designations and drafting development and design standards, all subject to public hearings prior to adoption. A number of the area's existing businesses are represented on the advisory committee, so their views and needs will be factored in.
"Ultimately," Lynagh said in a memo to the city council, "the plan and zone changes contemplated for the Northeast Gateway will help ensure that the area transitions into a compact, mixed-use, walkable and economically attractive neighborhood." She said, "We expect this work to take some five to six months to complete."

Pakistan: Now or Never?
Perspectives on Pakistan
The other Pakistan: a powerful civil society asserts itself
Lawyers dressed in black suits scuffling with police, several dragged into police vans. Other marching, their arms linked, shouting slogans and holding placards in a peaceful campaign for justice. If you looked at the TV and still pictures of the "long march" launched by the lawyers in a two-year campaign to uphold the freedom and integrity of the judiciary, they seemed to show a vibrant democracy rather than a country teetering on the brink of failure. It's a face of Pakistan that has all but got buried in recent months, M Reza Pirbhai, a professor of South Asian history at Louisiana University, wrote in Counterpunch.
"Turban-topped, gun-totting mountain men, stern military dictators and corrupt civilian politicians dominate the global media's representations of Pakistan, from Washington to New Delhi best fitting the preferred image of the 'most dangerous place on earth," he said.
"The Pakistani press, however, provides equal coverage to a movement born in the populous, lowland cities, one that showcases this country of 160 million's more representative, non-violent face. For the past two years, national commentators have been following 'Men in Black' – a reference to their black suits and ties – around the streets of Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad and every other major population centre."
For two years the men, and indeed the women, have openly challenged the might of the state with rallies, demonstrations, strikes, boycotts of government institutions and sit-ins in public spaces. They want the supreme court judges dismissed by then President Pervez Musharraf reinstated and a crackdown on them has again begun as they march towards Islamabad.
Is such a protest possible in Afghanistan, the state that Pakistan increasingly finds itself compared to? Or even more tellingly, in any of the countries in the Middle East? Or even countries in southeast Asia such as Malaysia?
The Asian Human Rights Commission says throughout Asia there is no parallel to the Pakistani lawyers movement. It was largely because of this that an election took place last February after nine years of military rule.
The protests, for all the risks they hold for Pakistan's fragile democracy, represent the power of a civil society, says Ijaz Shafi Gilani, a specialist in public opinion research, in an article in The News.
"An increasingly empowered and more cohesive society finds itself at odds with the authority of the state. Trust in state institutions has declined while trust in civil society institutions including independent media has risen," he says.
Pakistan's problem is not that it is a failing nation, he argues. The problem is the distrust between an increasing vibrant society and the state. "The year under the stewardship of (President Asif Ali) Zardari can perhaps best be described as the one that produced a weaker state, stronger nation."
Something to retrieve then from these protests?

Chief Executive of Pakistan
Title: President of Pakistan

Working Experience:
Early days: Working at the family owned Bambino Cinema at Karachi . Some accuse Mr Zardari of small-time ticket frauds to steal money from the family business.
Up till 1987 (marriage to the future Prime Minister, Benazir Bhutto): No record.
1988 to date: While no official record of any business exists, Mr Zardari is widely believed to be one of the (if not the) richest man in Pakistan . An unofficial list of family owned businesses, property and accounts exists but the completeness of the same cannot be verified. Mr Zardari has however been involved in various national and international cases relating to his businesses. The most significant European cases are a Swiss money-laundering inquiry and a British civil cases.

1988-1990: Husband of the Prime Minister
1993–1996: Minister of Environment during his wife's second term as the Prime Minister

September 9, 2008: Zardari was elected president of Pakistan . Sworn in by Abdul Hameed Dogar, whose position as the Chiefe Justice of Pakistan remains a contested issue by an overwhelming majority of the Pakistani legal fraternity.
Working Experience [Other]:
Other experience of Mr Zardari includes his widely believed but not proven involvement in
- Several murders – most famously of his brother in law, possibly his wife
- Wrapping a bomb to the leg of a famous UK businessman to ask for money
- Embezzlement & looting of Billions of Pakistan's wealth
None on record
Marrying the then future and now ex (RIP) Prime Minister of Pakistan
Only serving politician to have spent 10 years in Jail
Told the US VP Candidate that she is "gorgeous" and said : "Now I know why the whole of America is crazy about you". When the photographers asked the two to keep shaking hands, he replied : " If he insists, I might hug you". This was one day after the President delivered an emotional speech at the UN in new York waiving a photograph of his deceased wife only months after the murder of his wife.
@Hi! I just came here after i found an incoming link to my blog site which has been mentioned here in few comments. I had to read all the thread and i wonder why my neighbors only believe in limited exposure to information. On the same Pro-Pakistan site you can find loads of such discussion about the true face of Indian hypocrisy.
- Posted by M Junaid Khan
Mr Khan:
I am the culprit for posting the link from your blog. I was posting in relation to the ongoing discussion and I wanted to give Pakistani POV on political instability. It appears Indian rhetoric is music to your ears. Now Mr. non-hypocritic Khan: I am not going to post each and irrlevant article on your blog. You are a true representation of intrusive-media of pakistan. Such a blasphemy on my part to post that link, but I am lucky not to be in Pakistan.
Now I saw the new link on India, You are working hard–keep it up. You exagerated some facts and missed some. Go find out. It is pity that you are begging to be cited and it does not work that way. If you curb your impatience and see some posts from Indian bloggers, you will find that Indian side has also been covered.
Presenting facts is one thing, but glorifying negatives of India, and getting satisfaction out of that, will take Pakistan down faster than it already is happening. Now for your reference India has many positives that offset these negatives and IMHO Pakistan is quite bankrupt that way.
Khuda Hafiz
Mr. Junaid Khan,
I do agree with the article written in this link. In India we are dealing with these problems. We know there are a huge number of children malnurished in India. However, you cannot force people to NOT have children because there are too many already. I saw, last year, on You Tube a story of a Pakistani woman who walked infront of a train with her 2 children because she could not afford to feed them.
Yes, India spends a lot of money on defence projects. That is due to the threats we have from Pakistan (covert or otherwise) and Bangladesh. Kargil and Mumbai attacks are contributing factors.
However, you have to admit having a blog called pro pakistan and listing (correctly or otherwise) some of India's problems does make it look like an inferiority complex is at work – or plain frustration that India is reguarded as a better place than Pakistan by the worlds media.
Bollywood movies are Bollywood movies. They are an escapism. People go to the movies to be entertained and not to have the realities that surround their everyday lives thrown in their faces.
Its as if you want to show how rosy, pretty, gentile Pakistan is by listing all things negative about India.
If Pakistan is so great then:
Stop begging the world for aid.
Remove all terrorism camps from Pakistan.
Sort out your economy.
($1 = 80.2 Pak Rupee)
($1 = 501.3 Ind Rupee)
If you do this then maybe, just maybe other nations will feel safe to come and play cricket and for tourism.
Maybe, just maybe foreigners from China, Poland, the UN and other countries will not be kidnapped and lose their heads.
M Junaid Khan
"On the same Pro-Pakistan site you can find loads of such discussion about the true face of Indian hypocrisy."
— The sources from which you've quoted are all Indian, wonder who qualifies as a hypocrite?
What's most amusing is the response to the question posed by you on your pro-pakistan blogsite –
" Are you still proud to be an Indian?"
you- "I certainly am not…blah blah"
—who cares! we are already done with you guys way back in 1947,you'll are no longer 'Indian'can't you'll still digest this fact- layoff! & give those no-arm race sermons to your own people.
"We started a new series with the title of "Incredible India"
—Look!inspite of all it's short-comings- even a India-hate-filled paki like you can't think of anything better, with regards to this advanced, ancient & spiritual civilization called -India, but to term it as 'Incredible India'.
India makes world's cheapest car , Pakistan makes world's cheapest terrorist
why do i always find indians on anything related to pakistan?
this article was all about pakistan's civil society yet again all the indians can wanna do it tell the world how great their own country is and how bad we are…
you know what… even if india was infact the best country in the world i would still rather choose to be a Pakistani!
stop telling the world that there is nothing wrong with India and everything is wrong with Pakistan…
get a life indians… and move on from Pakistan.. we are here to stay!

See ~~ You have an established following already!
"Those that throw mud, lose ground!" :>)
Ok gals, I think I have it down, but this weekend time is short. Son & DIL are coming to pick up the kids & dogs and I'll have to feed 6 people plus keep everyone out of everyone else's way!
I still may ask a question or two after they have gone...but I do have notes!
Tomorrow grandson also has to teach me some stuff about facebook so I can keep up with them & their activities...plus they are doing running workouts twice a day that I have to prod them to do!
I'm just about exhausted after this past 2 weeks!
"The soil is the source of life, creativity, culture and real independence." David Ben-Gurion
I am happy to see that you are still alive and well. Tee, hehehe.
sounds like a 'happy tired' to me. things will get back to normal... meanwhile, try to carve out some time and space for yourself. go hide somewhere in your garden.
as for Facebook.. that will be a wonderful way to keep in touch with your family. if you have any questions, put them here on the board and one of us Facebookers will most likely have an answer for you.
Karen, so glad you'll be posting pics.....
Recupe and come back loaded with pics for us all to gaga over. We'll be waiting anxiously.
Still not "recouped"! I slept a SOLID 8 hrs. last night and still feel like I'm dragging my behind today.
Besides trying to get all the extra sheets, towels, comforters washed & put away....
Yesterday my kitchen sink backed up! I was trying to do laundry and then couldn't use the water until DH found the problem. After taking everything apart under the sink, he decided it was in the pipes under the house...so he found it down there. Evidently, it had started awhile back and then having the kids here with them dumping food down the kitchen sink until I caught them (NO garbage disposal here), the long hair going down the shower drain & them using THICK toilet paper (they bought their own)...it REALLY clogged the pipe!
DH got it fixed.
THEN this morning, my fridge was freezing the stuff on the top shelf! Again...all the in/out of the fridge with the kids and into the freezer for ice all day long...it iced up. So I had to thaw it today and clean it all up. It's working fine now too.
Tomorrow I have to do a grocery run...we are out of several things, like lettuce for sandwiches & salads! Then MAYBE I'll finish getting the house back in order!
We are supposed to be cooler the rest of the week so that means I hit the outside ASAP! That Bermuda grass is trying to take over!
And after all this, I've lost a few pounds. My jeans are EASY to fasten now!
"The soil is the source of life, creativity, culture and real independence." David Ben-Gurion
oh my Karen. You even sound exhausted in your writing. Bummer on the clogged pipe and the freezer...glad they got fixed. Now rest up and then flood us with pictures. I hope you took some of those grandkids!
We're all just waiting while you rest up!
Everything always seems to go wrong at once. Notice that? One day at a time my dear!
"Those that throw mud, lose ground!" :>)
Holy Cow!! I go away for a few days and just look what happens!!!!
Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain.
its going to take you a while to recoup and get the house back to normal. take your time.. we'll be here when you're ready to post pictures.
since i'm un-gardening here, i get to live vicariously thru you, muddy, vera ellen, and everyone else's flower pictures.

The Super Bowl champion Ravens have a tight salary cap this offseason, so teams are understandably looking to raid their available free agents. The Browns are certainly one of those teams, as they are considered to be aggressive suitors for linebackers Paul Kruger and Dannell Ellerbe.
Though the Colts are also expected to be interested in Kruger, the Browns do have a lot of money to spend and a pretty desperate need for outside linebackers. In 2012, Kruger had 42 tackles, nine sacks and an interception. Apparently, a source believes that Kruger could get anything from $10 million to $12 million annually.
Ellerbe has also drawn interest from several teams. Though he was fighting off a number of injuries last season, he still managed to post a career-high 92 tackles and 4.5 sacks. As the best inside linebacker available, it doesn't seem likely that the Browns will land him, but the interior of the linebacker position is not as much of a concern for them.

Available on Region One for some time, eight of Universal's best-known horror classics finally make it across the pond. The flagship titles are 1931's Dracula and Frankenstein and 1932's The Mummy - - the movies that introduced the supernatural to the sound era and gave desperate Depression-era audiences some much-needed escapism.
Inevitably, what shocked them then now seems quaint. This is especially true of Dracula, which starts off eerie and ends up merely tedious. It may have created an indelible icon with Bela Lugosi's hypnotic count, but it's Dwight Frye's deranged fool who remains unnervingly creepy.
Frye pops up again as the assistant to Colin Clive's lunatic Dr Frankenstein in James Whale's masterly adaptation of Mary Shelley's novel. But here he's overshadowed - as is everyone - by the wondrous performance of Boris Karloff. His creature is a wounded, sympathetic creation who doesn't deserve his fate.
Karloff would again bring "his eyes like shattered mirrors" to the role of Imhotep in The Mummy. Here director Karl Freund creates a bizarre, feverish fantasy that's as much a twisted love story as a traditional shocker.

COT Report: A Market Nightmare?
- Monday, July 24, 2000
Written by Patrick Shea, CEO of MarketPicture.com.
You're dreaming you're a new soldier going into battle. The Army, Navy and Marines help boost your confidence, even as you face thousands of enemy troops all lined up in perfect order. You still feel invincible because the greatest military power in the history of mankind is behind you.
Just before the battle begins, you glance back for one last reassuring look at the vast force supporting your effort, only to discover that you are alone! There is nobody there, and the panic starts to rise.
Then as you turn to face the enemy, you find that your supportive armed forces are now joined with the enemy against you. Being the eternal optimist, you gulp and pray, "Thank you God that I only have to die once instead of the 1,000 deaths possible here."
If you're an individual investor, this analogy may ring true after you read the 7/11/00 Commodities Futures Commission (CFTC) S&P 500 Commitment of Trader (COT) report. If not, you may not realize that the CFTC, which is responsible for overseeing the futures markets, issues a bimonthly report detailing the ownerships of various futures contracts. Ownership is listed in three categories: Commercial (the largest institutional players), Non Commercial (large speculators) and Non Reportable (small speculators, sometimes referred to as "cannon fodder" because they are almost always wrong).
The "almost always right" Commercial hedgers have the money and leverage to dominate the large and small speculators. Many traders have found success in following and selling with them instead of opposing them. In the soldier nightmare analogy, the Commercials would be the Army and the Navy.
The large speculators also carry plenty of money power and leverage, but not to the extent of Commercials. These "specs" are like the Marines-small in number, but great fighters.
The small traders, who have been skipping down the sidewalk during this mega bull market without a care in the world, have enjoyed the monthly brokerage statements that reflect a higher month end value. Their confidence has leapt ahead, resulting in increased purchasing based on expected returns. They reason, "This bull market is going to last forever and we expect 20 to 30% annual appreciation, don't we?"
As small investors page through the S&P 500 COT report, a curious item catches their attention: the Commercials who bought and held the S&P contracts during the bull market are gone. Not only are they gone, but they are net short! "Uh oh!" small investors say, "But at least we have the large speculators on our side, right?" They are short the market too! Who's long the market if they are all short? The answer is the "cannon fodder," again.
Below is an analyzed chart displaying the heavy selling vs. heavy buying of the commitment of traders report. (Analyzed charts are ordinarily for Marketpicture members only.)
Steve Briese writes in the 6/19/00 edition of The Bullish Review a publication devoted to interpreting the COT report, "Commercials have an exemplary long term record of calling tops and bottoms in this stock index. They are currently more bearish now than at market tops in April 1998, October 1997, January 1992 and October 1997." The Bullish Review goes on to say, "Small traders are carrying a record net long total. This is the quintessential stand off between big money and small-change players; between smart money and the ill informed; between trend makers and trend followers. And we cannot see this thing ending other than badly for the bulls."
Is a market nightmare about to happen? Entering the fall season, indications are that we may experience a big down turn. What should investors do to protect their positions?
At MarketPicture.com, we suggest maintaining the conservative equity allocation originally recommended in January. Continue to:
- Overweight fixed income investments vs. equity
- Overweight large cap value vs. the large cap growth equity portion of a portfolio.
- Close all margin positions immediately and be especially wary of NASDAQ and Technology stocks. Within the tech sector, reduce or eliminate exposure to Internet stocks.
If a market nightmare is about to begin, we should see evidence of it by the week of 8/7/00 based upon market structure. In the coming weeks, we will follow this potential "nightmare" scenario closely. Until then, say your prayers and watch out for friendly fire.

The Book of Eli premieresIn the original screen play, Eli meets the archetypal "devil in the desert" who seeks the use the "Book of Eli" as a weapon to expand his power base out of the one horse town he runs as Mayor. Carnegie, played by Gary Oldman, succeeds in shooting Eli and seizing the Bible, only to discover it is written in brail and Eli is in fact blind. Nevertheless, Eli manages to reach his sanctuary, where he dictates the Bible to a printer played by Malcolm McDowell, thus enabling the scriptures to be recovered for another generation.
Trouble was that the final scene was leaked during post production and an alternative ending filmed, in which Eli actually dies, but McDowell finds the Bible stored as an audio book on his iPod.
