Approximately 400,000 migrants transit through Mexico each year in order to reach the United States, many of them women from Latin America. Gabriela Diaz and Gretchen Kuhner explain how the detention system's structure and new detention procedures affect women.

México es uno de los principales países de tránsito de migrantes en el mundo, particularmente para los miles de centroamericanos que viajan cada año por el país con el objetivo de alcanzar los Estados Unidos.
Since 2000, Mexico has further intensified efforts to detain and deport irregular migrants. Gabriela Diaz and Gretchen Kuhner investigate the experiences of women migrants, the majority of them from Latin America, who have been detained in Mexico en route to the United States.
Monette Zard of the International Council on Human Rights Policy presents human rights as a tool for empowering migrants, reframing migration debates, and holding states accountable.
Rebekah Alys Lowri Thomas of the Global Commission on International Migration examines how the use of biometrics at borders may violate migrants' privacy rights.
This fact sheet details the policy, programmatic, budget, and manpower changes that have happened in the immigration arena as an outgrowth of the 9/11 attacks.
This report details the post-9/11 programs and agreements implemented by U.S. and European governments to identify terrorists and serious transnational criminals through the collection and processing of increasing quantities of traveler data.
'Securing Human Mobility' book release discussion with Susan Ginsburg, Michael German, Luis Rubio, and Donald M. Kerwin.
This volume, by a former senior counsel to the 9/11 Commission, argues that the U.S. approach to immigration and border security is off-kilter and not keeping pace with the scope and complexity of people's movement around the world, nor with expectations regarding freedom of movement.
This conference offers law and policy analysis and discussion on cutting-edge immigration issues.
This report assesses the performance of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) over the course of the agency's first six years, examines the effectiveness of the three core immigration agencies within DHS—U.S Customs and Border Protection, U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
This paper proposes a stakeholder principle that should guide citizenship policies in Europe and North America. This principle applies to both immigrants and emigrants. Stakeholders in this sense are those who have a stake in the polity's future because of the circumstances of their lives.
This fact sheet examines the dramatic increase in U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services processing times for naturalization applications resulting from an overall increase in applications during fiscal year 2007.

Recipe by Campbell's Kitchen
"Continental burgers are served with an onion-seasoned 'au jus' sauce for dipping."

1 pound
ground beef
1 (10.5 ounce) can
Campbell's® Condensed French Onion Soup
4 slices
American cheese
round hard rolls
We have been making these for years! They are my favorite burger! Ssssh...sometimes we use a packet of LIPTON onion soup mix. Delicious!!
Burgers were very juicy. Used dry soup mix to make the liquid equivalent. I personally like more flavor with seasonings on my burgers, but the kids loved them as is. Overall, as I said earlier, a very good juicy burger.
78 Ratings
We make these burgers a lot during the summer. A lot. What makes them even better is melted swiss and carmelized onions and mushrooms.
When we make them, the whole neighborhood
comes to check them out. They just HAVE to know what smells so good!
This was awesome! I also used the dry soup mix... put some in the hamburger meat (along with some minced garlic) b4 I cooked them. YUMMY!!!
Very good tasting burgers! I used ground sirloin for this and sprinkled them with a little krazy salt then followed directions. I was skeptical how this could be any good with barely any ingredients. This was similar to the French Dip sandwich with the au jus like Arby's serves, only better! I served this on onion buns, these were soooo tasty.
I found this on the soup can and my husband loves it! I always make sauteed onions and mushrooms (add a little of the soup to this for extra flavor) and I use ground turkey! It's awesome!!!
Try this recipe for a juicy, yummy change from the usual burger. Thankfully, a recipe without cream soup! Here is my version:
2# ground beer
2 t minced garlic
2 T Worcestershire sauce
1 large onion, sliced
1 can French onion soup
1-2 t wasabi (optional)
6 slices Monterrey or Pepper Jack
6 hamburger rolls
Mix all together; shape into patties. Heat non-stick skillet to high. Brown one side of patties then flip, reduce heat to medium-low, add onion, cover pan. Stir onions occasionally, cook until burgers are cooked though and onions are golden. Add soup, raise heat til simmers, simmer for 5 minutes. Broil buns with cheese.
I thought it was very tasty and easy to make as well. I fried some onions prior to cooking the hamburgers and then added them to the dry onion soup mix. My husband didn't care for these at all because he felt that dipping the hamburger bun in the sauce made it soggy and he doesn't like that texture. But I loved it and thought it made a great midweek meal.

Overview Reviews Details Articles & Videos by Ralph Graves A longtime favorite just got betterTivoli took their famous Model One AM/FM table radio and added Bluetooth. So now you can enjoy your favorite radio stations and your favorite music from your smartphone or tablet. All in a simple system that simply delivers great sound.High-quality radio receptionThe Model One's super-sensitive tuner pulls in stations that elude other radios, and a special frequency-contouring circuit continually adjusts audio output, maintaining detailed sound even with a weak signal. The single 3-inch long-throw speaker delivers warm, yet clear mono sound in an expansive sound field, even when you turn up the volume.Wireless Bluetooth convenienceThe Model One BT lets you make a wireless Bluetooth connection from your smartphone, tablet or other portable player. And you're not limited to just the music stored on your device. Use your tablet to connect to your favorite online music streaming service, for example, and enjoy your own personal radio station's selections throught the Model One BT. Or stream the soundtrack from the video you're watching on your smartphone.Fine cabinet designThe Model One features a hand-crafted wooden case with a layered finish, similar to that of fine furniture. It also functions as an inert speaker cabinet, so you only get the sound of the speaker with no sonic colorations from the case. A passive port reinforces bass and mid/bass frequencies.Just the controls you needControls for the Model One BT are stripped down to the essentials: volume, AM/FM/Bluetooth, and tuning. The Model One's 5-to-1 ratio analog dial lets you "fine tune" with greater accuracy than a digital tuner. An LED light changes intensity as you tune, letting you know when the signal strength is strongest.

It is good as a radio; tunes well, good tone quality. The Blue Tooth function is a bit weak (signal, volume) 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great radio Written By Joel S, Kinston, NC on Monday, January 14, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Excellent sound quality for a table radio. I bought it for my office and I'm thrilled with the reception, sound clarity and tuning. The Bluetooth function is amazingly easy and makes listening to podcasts and music from my iPhone very simple and practical. I wasn't sure the feature would be worth the extra money, but after a week, I don't have any regrets. I'm also pleased with Crutchfield's excellent order processing. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my radio and purchase experience. 24 out of 25 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Hands-on research What's in the box? | In-depth notes What's in the box? Download owner's manual Tabletop AM/FM radio w/ built-in Bluetooth 10' AC power cord FM wire antenna 2 Cable-clips Owner's Manual Product Registration Card Product Research Features Ported Wood Cabinet w/ Full-Range Mono Driver: The Tivoli Audio Model One BT features a furniture-grade, handmade, real-wood cabinet that is both beautiful and acoustically inert. The Model One BT uses a single 3.0" heavy-magnet, long-throw full-range driver for great sound. The 3.0" full-range driver is mated to a frequency contouring circuit that automatically adjusts output over half-octave increments, resulting in musically accurate tonal balance and bass response. The enclosure's down-firing port provides added efficiency and bass-response. Henry Kloss Analog AM/FM Tuner w/5:1 Analog Tuning Dial: The Model One BT is equipped with a Henry Kloss analog AM/FM tuner for precise radio station tuning. To take full advantage of the AM/FM tuner's high sensitivity and selectivity, the Model One BT uses a precise analog tuning system with a geared-down 5:1 ratio analog tuning dial for accurate, easy selection of the maximum number of stations. The 5:1 tuning gear ratio provides easy, accurate tuning. A front-panel LED tuning indicator illuminates amber and is brightest when the best tuning has been achieved (some listenable AM stations will not light the tuning indicator and should be tuned by ear for the clearest signal). The tabletop radio's internal FM and AM antennas provide good reception in most applications. Locating the Model One BT near a window will provide better reception. The unit is also equipped with external AM/FM antenna connections and comes with an external FM wire antenna. Internal/External FM Antenna: An alternative to the tabletop radio's built-in FM antenna, is the supplied indoor external FM wire antenna or optional FM dipole antenna (sold separately). Also, connecting your cable television 75-ohm coaxial cable to the radio's external FM connection may provide clearer local FM reception; although you must usually request activation of this service through your cable company. Internal/External AM Antenna: When listening to AM, rotate the Model One itself to align the internal AM antenna for improved reception. There is a 3.5mm external AM antenna input for connecting an optional AM antenna (sold separately) to achieve even better AM reception. Built-in Bluetooth (A2DP): The Tivoli Audio Model One BT offers built-in Bluetooth version 2.1+EDR technology with advanced A2DP profile for high-quality wireless audio streaming from your Bluetooth-enabled device; such as your Apple iPod/iPhone/iPad, Android smartphone/tablet, Blackberry, laptop, or other device. The Model One BT also incorporates Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) which result in low-to-no noise interference with other wireless devices. You will continue to control playback of your Bluetooth connected device from the device, itself (not the Model One BT). Notes: Due to the differences in Bluetooth technology, some Bluetooth enabled devices may be incompatible, function improperly, or may not support all features when used with the Model One BT. Audio Connections: The Model One BT AM/FM radio is equipped with the following rear-panel audio inputs and outputs. Auxiliary Input: The unit features a 3.5mm auxiliary input for connecting an external device (such as your CD player or MP3 player), so you can listen to audio from the connected device through the Model One's mono speaker. Record Output: The radio's 3.5mm record output (fixed) lets you record music from the built-in AM/FM radio to a connected tape-deck or CD recorder. You can also use the Model One's record output to the connect the AM/FM tabletop radio to your home entertainment system. Headphone Output: The radio is equipped with a 3.5mm headphone output for connecting a set of stereo headphones for private listening. Connecting headphones will mute the Model One's mono speaker. Source Knob: The Model One tabletop radio is equipped with a 4-position source knob - AM, FM, Aux, and Off. Volume Knob: The Tivoli Audio Model One features a rotary volume control knob which operates the volume level for the unit's mono speaker and headphone output. Placement: Place the Tivoli Audio Model One BT on a flat, stable surface (do not block the bottom bass port). The radio is not video shielded and should be kept at least 5" away from a computer monitor or television. The unit can be positioned vertically, as well as horizontally. Placement in a bookcase, cabinet, or close to walls or corners may increase bass response. AC Power Adapter: The Tivoli Audio Model One BT operates off of standard household AC current using the supplied 10' AC power cord (117V-60Hz/25W). The unit features a front-panel LED which illuminates green when the unit's power is 'On'. Note: The 12VDC/800ma port is for use with an optional 1A fused/12VDC adapter (sold separately), for operation in a boat or camper. The connector must be a 5.5mm/2.1mm center-positive.

If I'm not told that they're non carriers, and if I don't have proof of their geneotype based off of progeny, when can I assume they're non carriers for a trait?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Biology Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for biology researchers, academics, and students. It's 100% free, no registration required.
All the time.
Unless you are specifically told/shown they are carriers, they are assumed to be Wild Type and do not carry the mutation.
You can only rely on statistics in this case. Check the population the person is coming from for statistical probability to be carriers.
Usually you assume neither situation. You are given some probability that they carry the trait based on measured allele frequency in the population. Then you use that probability in any downstream application, such as calculating the probability the children are carriers or affected with the genetic condition.

The moon is high in the dusk sky, the silence hurts and the gunslingers look like morbid statues, every thing under this light is a lapse of waiting that feels will last forever, there is no tomorrow, and past is just a shadow escaping from this moment, suddenly a sequence of fire break the silence, the black bird screams and many bodies fall inanimated, all is over just for one more day, tomorrow…tomorrow Black Bird will walk again with his eagle for companion and more shadows painting his face and dressing his heart.

man i hope the knee holds up.
In his office Friday afternoon, Philbin pointed to the practice fields outside and said: "Out there is where we're going to find out about Ryan Tannehill, Matt Moore and David Garrard. I don't remember a master plan that said, 'Here's when Ryan's going to play.' If there is one, I was never told about it. We'll let them come to work, and the best man will win."'
If Glenn signs I actually feel pretty good about our WR. If Mccown can show the signs he did when he was with the Cardinals and have a couple of those 300 yard games he had in Arizona, we might just win a couple games this year.

Christopher - any fests or screening locations you might recommend in LA area?
Gosh, I really don't know. Unfortunately I'm not too familiar with the festival scene out here. If you were interested in creating your own screening, there are a ton of places in LA that vary in size, style and price. Regarding festivals, I'm just not sure, especially with the strong religious nature of your film, though secular fests may really be into that - who knows?
It's ironic, but we really don't have really cool fests here in LA. The LA fest is the most reputable, which is in the summer.
Personally, I feel like your film could be embraced by large churches out here, who might want you to screen it as a special event for their congregation. But then again, that might be true at any large church in any town....
Curiously both places it's been accepted (Wi Film Fest and Indie Grits) are both in smallish towns with prominent secular public universities so I'm not entirely sure that the film audience is limited to religious audiences (although I am developing a strategy to reach those audiences).
I guess the great thing about doing a film festival run is it allows you to test your film with different audiences and see how they respond. You can then develop a larger distribution strategy based on that.

In 2015, winter begins on December 21, 11:48 P.M. EST. Get more information about the winter solstice below.
"A day without sunshine is like, you know, night." –Steve Martin
The Winter Solstice
Winter inspires both joy and woe. Some people can't wait for the cooler weather, snow, skiing and ice skating, curling up by a fire, and the holiday spirit. Other people dislike the frigid temperatures, blizzards, and wild weather.
The word solstice comes from the Latin words for "sun" and "to stand still." In the Northern Hemisphere, as summer advances to winter, the points on the horizon where the Sun rises and sets advance southward each day; the high point in the Sun's daily path across the sky, which occurs at local noon, also moves southward each day. At the winter solstice, the Sun's path has reached its southernmost position. The next day, the path will advance northward. However, a few days before and after the winter solstice, the change is so slight that the Sun's path seems to stay the same, or stand still. The Sun is directly overhead at "high-noon" on Winter Solstice at the latitude called the Tropic of Capricorn.
Winter solstice is the day with the fewest hours of sunlight during the whole year. In the Northern Hemisphere, it occurs around December 21 or 22. (In the Southern Hemisphere, it is around June 20 or 21.)
See your local Sun rise and set times and see how the days change!
Questions and Answers About Winter
Question: Why is there such a time lag between the shortest day of the year (shortest amount of daylight hours) and the lowest average daily temperature of the year?
Answer: This is the shortest day of the year, meaning the one in which we experience the least amount of daylight in 24 hours; it is also the time when the Sun reaches its southernmost point in the sky. Although this part of Earth is cooling, its great thermal mass still retains some heat from the summer and fall. As the gradual cooling process continues over the next two months, temperatures will continue to fall, and the coldest temperatures will be recorded. The same pattern holds true for the summer solstice in June, as the year's highest temperatures are recorded later, in July and August.
Question: Was Stonehenge built to celebrate the winter solstice?
Answer: That's one theory. Stonehenge was constructed in several phases over a period of many centuries. Due to the alignment of the stones, experts acknowledge that the design appears to correspond with the use of the solstices and possibly other solar and lunar astronomical events in some fashion. There are several theories as to why the structure was built, including that the area was used as a temple to worship the Sun; as a royal burial ground; and/or as a type of astronomical observatory. However, because none of these theories has been proven correct as yet, the true reason (or reasons) for Stonehenge remains a mystery.
Signs of Winter
It depends on where you are! In some places, snow begins to sprinkle down (or dump) onto the landscape, painting everything white. You notice a peaceful sort of silence when you walk through the woods—a muffled kind of quiet. It also mean shoveling, snowblowing, dealing with bad roads, and sometimes unbearable temperatures. For others, the temperatures become very mild and cool, and Florida fills up with people escaping the harshness of a northern winter.
You can track when the seasons change by recording animal behaviors and the way that the plants grow. Listen to the new sounds and observe what you hear and see.

Jenson Button concedes he has only himself to blame for running into the back of Paul di Resta at the start of the Sunday's race...
Jenson Button concedes he has only himself to blame for running into the back of Paul di Resta at the start of the Abu Dhabi GP.
After a disappointing qualifying session, Button started Sunday's race at the Yas Marina circuit down in 12th place.
Determined to make up positions, the McLaren driver locked up and ran into the back of Paul di Resta's Force India.
The impact broke Button's front wing and he was forced to pit for repairs, dropping him well down the order.
Button recovered to finish 12th, the same position he began.
"You make your own luck when you start down in 12th - where first-lap congestion is inevitable - and, sure enough, there was a little bit of argy-bargy into Turn One," he admitted.
"I duly locked-up both my front tyres, couldn't slow the car down sufficiently, and drove into the back of Paul [di Resta], which broke my front-wing end-plate.
"It's a real pity to keep on having first-lap incidents, especially when the car is working reasonably well now.
"I've been in a similar situation for the past two races, and things haven't really gone my way. Still, I managed 44 laps on the Prime - and, in terms of getting the most out of what we had, that felt positive.
"So, all in all, given how far behind we were after lap two [when he made his unscheduled early pit-stop], to finish so close to 10th by the chequer wasn't so bad."

Judge Fred G. Morrison Jr. ruling squashes New Year's Eve tradition
Judge Fred G. Morrison Jr. may have encountered a few rats during his many years in state government, but an opossum?
It's true.
After a distinguished law career spanning nearly half a century — including a six-year stint as an attorney and civic leader in Thomasville — the longtime administrative law judge's ultimate claim to fame may be as a possum-squasher.
Last month, Morrison ruled that the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission does not have the authority to issue a permit for the annual New Year's Eve Possum Drop in tiny Brasstown, N.C., effectively preventing the organizer from using a live possum at New Year's Eve event.
"Citizens are prohibited from capturing and using wild animals for pets or amusement," Morrison wrote in his ruling. "Hunters must afford wild animals the same right Patrick Henry yearned for: 'Give me liberty, or give me death!'"
The 18-page ruling placed the judge in a spotlight bright enough to scare a possum.
"I got lots of feedback, positive and negative," Morrison said from his office in Raleigh, where he serves as senior administrative law judge for the N.C. Office of Administrative Hearings. "I heard from people all over the place."
For two decades, Brasstown has hosted its annual New Year's Eve Possum Drop, during which a live, caged possum is ceremoniously lowered at midnight — just as the famed crystal ball drops in New York City's Times Square — while thousands of revelers scream, shoot off fireworks and take pictures of the marsupial guest of honor.
In recent years, though, the festivities have come under heavy criticism from animal-rights activists, particularly People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, spouting charges of animal cruelty. PETA failed in previous legal attempts to stop the Possum Drop, but finally succeeded this time by filing a petition against the Wildlife Resources Commission, claiming the agency did not have the authority to issue Logan a permit for his event.
Morrison sided with PETA, agreeing that the "Temporary Possession and Release" permit the commission had issued to Logan was invalid, but not ruling specifically on whether the event constituted animal cruelty.
"It's implied in (PETA's) filings, where they say that these are very timid animals and the event could frighten the possum to death, but that wasn't the issue on which I ruled," Morrison said. "My ruling was about the legality of holding that possum captive and exhibiting the possum."
Ironically, this is Morrison's second encounter with a possum during his tenure in state government. Previously, he was Gov. Bob Scott's legal counsel when the governor famously served possum at a black-tie event at the executive mansion in 1972.
"That was the only time I'd ever had any knowledge of a possum in state government," Morrison said with a chuckle. "Until now."
Though not a Thomasville native, Morrison lived in the Chair City through most of the 1960s. His family lived there while he was studying law at Wake Forest University, and then he practiced law in Thomasville from 1963 to 1969, when he joined the governor's staff in Raleigh. He first practiced with E.W. Hooper, then was appointed solicitor of Thomasville Recorder's Court; he also served as legal counsel for the Thomasville City Board of Education.
Morrison also served as president of the Thomasville Jaycees in 1967-68.
When questioned about the Possum Drop, Morrison — who has a pet golden retriever — stopped short of calling the event animal cruelty, but said organizers probably shouldn't use a live possum.
"With all the noise and lights and firecrackers going off," he said, his voice trailing off. "Well, I think they could get the same benefit by dropping a stuffed possum. Some people enjoy the way they've been doing it, but others may not, and by dropping a stuffed possum, you rid yourself of that problem."
According to an Associated Press story in the Jan. 3 edition of the High Point Enterprise, it's not clear if Clay Logan, organizer of the New Year's Eve Possum Drop, used a live possum. A box, wrapped in photos of opossums, was lowered at the stroke of midnight.
Logan vowed to continue his fight to use a live possum at future events.
"We just lost a battle," he told the High Point Enterprise before Jan. 1, "but we ain't lost the war yet."

City of Graz – Historic Centre and Schloss Eggenberg
The City of Graz – Historic Centre and Schloss Eggenberg bear witness to an exemplary model of the living heritage of a central European urban complex influenced by the secular presence of the Habsburgs and the cultural and artistic role played by the main aristocratic families. They are a harmonious blend of the architectural styles and artistic movements that have succeeded each other from the Middle Ages until the 18th century, from the many neighbouring regions of Central and Mediterranean Europe. They embody a diversified and highly comprehensive ensemble of architectural, decorative and landscape examples of these interchanges of influence.

Город Грац – исторический центр и замок Еггенберг
Грац является воплощением живого наследия, каким является городское поселение Центральной Европы эпохи светского правления Габсбургов. Этот памятник был включен в Список всемирного наследия в 1999 году. Замок Еггенберг, находящийся примерно в 3 км к западу от исторического центра города Грац, стал его расширением. Он был построен приблизительно в 1625 году на месте еще более старого замка в качестве резиденции герцога Ханса-Ульриха фон Еггенберга (1568-1634), одного из самых влиятельных политических деятелей Австрии семнадцатого века. Ныне дворец Еггенберг - это хорошо сохранившееся сооружение, в архитектуре и внешнем оформлении которого нашли отражение поздний итальянский ренессанс и барокко.

Historisch centrum van Graz en slot Eggenberg
Het historisch centrum van de stad Graz en het slot Eggenberg zijn perfecte voorbeelden van hoe het leven in een centraal-Europees stedelijk gebied is beïnvloed door de eeuwenlange aanwezigheid van de Habsburgers. En ze laten zien dat de belangrijkste adellijke families een grote culturele en artistieke rol hebben gespeeld. Stad en slot zijn een harmonieuze mix van verschillende architecturale stijlen en bewegingen in Midden-en Zuid-Europa, die elkaar opvolgden vanaf de Middeleeuwen tot de 18e eeuw. Het historische centrum en slot Eggenberg vormen een divers en uitgebreid geheel van architectonische, decoratieve en landschappelijke voorbeelden van de eerdergenoemde invloeden .

Outstanding Universal Value
Brief synthesis
The City of Graz – Historic Centre and Schloss Eggenberg bear witness to an exemplary model of the living heritage of a central European urban complex influenced by the secular presence of the Habsburgs and the cultural and artistic role played by the main aristocratic families. They are a harmonious blend of the architectural styles and artistic movements that have succeeded each other from the Middle Ages until the 18th century, in the many neighbouring regions of Central and Mediterranean Europe. They embody a diversified and highly comprehensive ensemble of architectural, decorative and landscape examples of these interchanges of influence.
Criterion (ii): The City of Graz – Historic Centre and Schloss Eggenberg reflects artistic and architectural movements originating from the Germanic region, the Balkans and the Mediterranean, for which it served as a crossroads for centuries. The greatest architects and artists of these different regions expressed themselves forcefully here and thus created a brilliant syntheses.
Criterion (iv): The urban complex forming the City of Graz – Historic Centre and Schloss Eggenberg is an exceptional example of a harmonious integration of architectural styles from successive periods. Each age is represented by typical buildings, which are often masterpieces. The physiognomy of the city and of the castle faithfully tells the story of their common historic and cultural development.
Integrity and authenticity
The extension of the City of Graz – Historic Centre property to include Schloss Eggenberg significantly strengthens the integrity of the property. The extension gives rise to the new enlarged buffer zone which is continuous, and includes the ancient road. Furthermore, the castle and its gardens have conserved satisfactory architectural and structural integrity.
The external authenticity of the castle is good, and that of the baroque interior on the first floor is excellent. The authenticity of the ground floor, which has been converted into a museum, and that of the garden, which has been partly redesigned and restored, are of a lower level which however remains acceptable.
Protection and management requirements
Schloss Eggenberg is protected under the Austrian Monument Protection Act (533/1923 and amendments). The Management Plan has been in place since 2007 and brings together the town plan of 2009 and all protection and conservation decisions related to the extended property and the buffer zone, which was enlarged to include the road leading from the historic centre of the city of Graz to Schloss Eggenberg. The Coordination Bureau for the extended property has been in place since 2009, and has been granted strengthened and effective overarching powers. However, particular care needs to be taken with regard to urban development pressures inside the property and its buffer zone, in order to maintain the outstanding universal value of the property and ensure that it is fully expressed.
Long Description
The historic centre of the city of Graz reflects artistic and architectural movements originating from the Germanic region, the Balkans, and the Mediterranean, for which it served as a crossroads for centuries. The greatest architects and artists of these different regions expressed themselves forcefully here and thus created brilliant syntheses. The urban complex forming the historic centre of the city is an exceptional example of a harmonious integration of architectural styles from successive periods. Each age is represented by typical buildings, which are often masterpieces. The urban physiognomy faithfully tells the story of its historic development.
The first traces of continuous human settlement go back to the Neolithic period. The site was not a Roman settlement, even though crossed by a few roads. After the fall of the Roman Empire, it was invaded, successively by Avars, Hungarians, and finally by German settlers. Graz was included in the March of Carinthia and mentioned for the first time in an official deed of 1128-29. Around this time an open market began to flourish, leading to urban development with the immigration of Bavarian settlers. After the Treaty of Neuberg (1379) and the first division of the Habsburg heritage, Graz came under the rule of the line established by Leopold III.
The 16th century was marked by constant threats from the Turks, as well as religious turmoil. The medieval fortifications were modernized according to Renaissance principles. In 1564, Graz became the capital of Inner Austria, despite the danger of Turkish invasions and the advances made by the Reformation. When elected Emperor in 1618, Ferdinand, son of Archduke Charles II, transferred his court to Vienna, and Graz underwent a relative economic recession. When the danger from the Turks was finally averted the economy boomed once again. Aristocrats and bourgeoisie competed with each other in their aspirations for honours and culture, and several mansions were built in Renaissance or early Baroque style.
Among the hundreds of buildings of great historic and architectural interest, a few particularly remarkable edifices are worthy of note. Of the original castle where Emperor Frederick III resided, all that remains is a Gothic hall, a late Gothic chapel, and a double spiral staircase going back to 1499. The wing constructed by Archduke Charles in 1570 has remained largely intact. Frederick III built the present cathedral in late Gothic style (1438-64) alongside a Romanesque church dedicated to St Aegidius. It contains admirable frescoes such as the 'Scourges of God', attributed to Thomas von Villach (1480). Following the transfer of the bishopric from Seckau to Graz, the church of St Aegidius, used for 200 years as a centre for the Counter-Reformation, became the cathedral of the new diocese in 1786.
The Mausoleum of Emperor Ferdinand II, started in 1614 by Giovanni de Ponis, was only consecrated in 1714 when the interior decoration, entrusted to Johann Bernhard Fischer von Ehrlach, was completed. The facade in particular reflects the transition from the Renaissance to the Baroque style and is an original synthesis between a powerful architecture topped by light domes. The Seminary (former Jesuit College): unlike other colleges, this impressive complex, started in 1572, was not remodelled in the Baroque style and is therefore an important illustration of the severe Renaissance architecture adopted by the order when it was first established in the German province.
After the dissolution of the order in 1773, the Jesuit University came under public control. In order to safeguard its collection, the library was installed in the old magna aula and in the theatre, on the orders of Empress Maria Theresa. Its decoration and furnishings make it a significant manifestation of the transition from the Rococo to the classical style, and it now serves as a show case for the Styrian Archives.Source: UNESCO/CLT/WHC
Historical Description
The first traces of continuous human settlement of the site goes back to the Neolithic period. The site was not used as a Roman settlement, even though a few roads crossed it. After the fall of the Roman Empire, it was invaded, first by Alpine Slavs, the Avars, a horse-riding nomadic people subjugated by Charlemagne; then by the Hungarians, who were defeated at the battle of Lechfeld in 955; and finally by German settlers. Graz was thus included in the march of Carinthia. A small fortress (gradec in Slavic, hence the name of Graz) was erected on the Schlossberg hill, while a few houses and a church were constructed around it. Graz was mentioned for the first time in an official deed of 1128/29.
It was around this time that an open market began to thrive, leading to the first urban development with the immigration of Bavarian settlers. Besides the local nobility, the population consisted of traders and artisans, as well as a Jewish community which remained there until the 15th century. Graz was governed by the Houses of Traungau and Babenberg, and was given the status of a city.
After the Treaty of Neuberg in 1379 and the first division of the Habsburg heritage, the city came under the rule of the line established by Leopold III. Graz became the capital of Inner Austria, composed of Styria, Carinthia, Carniola, Istria, and Trieste. Graz also became a favourite royal place of residence, particularly for Frederick III (1453-93), who granted it many privileges, had many buildings erected, and rebuilt the Church of St Aegidius, now the cathedral.
The city and region then became involved in serious armed conflicts with Hungarian and Turkish invaders. In 1480, the Turks even arrived the gates of the city: this episode is portrayed in a fresco in the cathedral entitled "The Scourges of God," a Gothic masterpiece by Master Thomas von Villach. The 16th century was marked by constant threats from the Turks, as well as religious turmoil. To confront these threats, the medieval fortifications were completely reorganized and modernized according to the rules in force during the Renaissance. In 1559, the Clock Tower, the symbolic monument of Graz, was given its characteristic appearance, which has remained unchanged to these days.
In 1564, as a result of a new partition of the Habsburg lands, Graz became the capital of Inner Austria, despite the danger of Turkish invasions and the advances made by the Reformation. Three-quarters of the inhabitants were Protestants, active in the burgeoning Protestant Foundation where Kepler, the famous astronomer and mathematician, taught.
However, the city was soon to undergo the most important phase of its development with the arrival of the Jesuits in 1572. Archduke Charles II supported the Counter-Reformation, established the Jesuit University and went to great lengths to undermine the Protestant Foundation, which disappeared in 1600. His son Ferdinand had a monumental mausoleum built by the artist Pietro de Pomis. However, on his election as Emperor in 1618, he transferred his court to Vienna and Graz underwent a relative economic recession. During the 17th century, several mansions were built in the Renaissance or early Baroque styles: the Kollonitsch Palace, the Effans von Avernas Palace, and the Stubenberg palace, the last-named passing on to the Welserheim family. Facades were remodelled in these styles and courtyards enclosed by arches were added to existing buildings. In the western part of the city, the Governor of Inner Austria, Hans Ulrich von Eggenberg, built a ducal palace of great artistic interest; it is the most important Baroque palace in Styria. The great architect Johann Bernhard Fisher von Erlach, was born in Graz in 1656. When the danger from the Turks was finally averted thanks to two decisive victories, Saint Gothard in 1664 and Vienna in 1683, the economy boomed once again. Aristocrats and bourgeoisie competed with each other in their aspirations for honours and culture.
Graz subsequently expanded towards the south and south-west Factories and banks were set up and started to thrive. However, the movement to centralize Austrian power, ending in the abolition of Inner Austria, weakened the institutions of Graz. At the same time, pilgrimage centres, such as Maria Hilf and Maria Trost, became monumental sanctuaries. The suppression of convents undertaken by Joseph II led to the closing of nine out of sixteen monasteries, whilst the University Library as enriched with works from forty monasteries in Styria and Carinthia. In 1786, the Bishop of Seckau transferred his residence to Graz and turned the Church of St Aegidius into a cathedral. The Jesuit Order was dissolved in 1773 and their university turned into a State university.
The economic growth of the city was severely affected by the wars between the Coalition and France. French troops occupied Graz on several occasions, in 1797, 1805,and 1809, imposing heavy war levies. They besieged the Schlossberg, which put up a brave resistance; however, under the terms of the Treaty of Schönbrunn, the fortifications had to be demolished. In 1839, a public park was laid out over the Schlossberg, giving it its present aspect.
The 1848 Revolution was a fairly moderate one. The pro- German middle class governed the city until 1918. It was a flourishing period for modern town planning. The city acquired military land to create green areas for the public and declared them as non aedificandi zones. Urban expansion was channelled outside this green belt and influenced by the Biedermeier style and then the Jugendstil, whilst the historic centre continued to be the social and commercial hub of the town.
The assassination of the heir to the throne, Archduke Franz-Ferdinand, who was born in Graz in the Khuenburg Palace, triggered off the hostilities of World War I in 1914. When the new frontiers were drawn up in 1918-19, Graz lost its hinterland and to a certain extent was relegated to the fringe from the geographical and economic points of view. In 1938, the seventeen surrounding municipalities formed a town incorporated into Greater Graz. World War II was followed by a slow return to normal, and Graz once again became a modern garden city, a cultural and industrial centre, and a university town.Source: Advisory Body Evaluation

Stackable Two-Tier Solid Wood Shoe Racks Provide Extra Storage
Stackable Two-Tier Shoe Rack 29 30
Not a good choice for holding shoes This stacking shoe holder is so wobble that it is a sad idea of a shoe holder. February 7, 2015
We love these shoe racks! Our first purchase of these shoe racks was for our small condo in the mountains; it certainly organized our space much better. We recently bought a new house and bought four of the shoe racks: one for the front door for us and visitors,one for our closet for hiking shoes, one for the back door for muddy shoes,and one for our other closet for fancy shoes. They help to keep us organized, save space, and we love them! They are also easy to put together. January 10, 2015
Very useful. We placed this at the door in the garage leading into the house to put our boots and clogs on. Great storage and organizer, now we don't have to step over the shoes to get into the house. January 21, 2014
This cedar shoe rack is great ! I bought one of these racks for myself and was impressed with how many pairs of shoes you can put on them. I put 8 pair on it even with large sizes. It gives easy placement and removal of the shoes. It went together so easy, no tools. In fact I liked it so well I bought 5 others as gifts. January 2, 2014
Closet Upgrade! What an improvement in the organization of my closet. The shoe racks are perfect to put to use the space below my hanging clothes. I stacked two sets but did not use the spacers, just the short dowels. This gives me 5 levels for shoe storage. Some shelves are quite close together as a result but for flats and flip-flops it is all that is necessary. While the racks are made of very light weight wood (not balsa but almost) they are plenty sturdy especially if positioned against a closet or mud room wall. Great product. December 18, 2013
really liked it really liked them. Exactly what i hoped they would be. stackable if desired. real wood, no glue, or plastic. easy to assemble. not meant for anything heavier than shoes. very pleased with product! December 4, 2013
Good product/Hard to find I've been looking for a good, solid wooden shoe rack for a long time, and all I had to do was open your catalog -BINGO!-there it was. Thanks, RJ November 15, 2013
Two-tier shoe rack This rack fits very nicely in my hall coat closet. It holds regular shoes as well as boots. It's a great size and quite sturdy. October 28, 2013

Keeping It Classy
Every day I visit this other Cartoon site - one well known for always Brewing up trouble - mostly out of habit. It's the sort of thing where, despite the many reasons given here, I'd been waiting for the site itself to give me a reason to stop reading. I think they finally gave it to me with the classiest headline I've seen in a while - "James Baxter teaches the internet to draw Croods porn".
The only redeeming part of the post were the comments I saw, calling the guy out for shamelessly titling the article to get clicks and ad revenue. I'm sure those comments will be deleted soon enough.
...forget trolling for clicks, at what point does a headline like that count as slander?
Re: Keeping It Classy
Well, considering this site has been blamed for the same thing in the past, and yours truly has engaged many people on this board who like to be aggressive and rude...and I sure enough returned the favor...so I'm no innocent of "barking" as they have said. Hahahaha. But I would challenge my personal sense and sensibility with a certain group of fraudulent and slanderous people who seem to be at the top, or hanging out around there in hopes the top will rubbed off on them.
All I can say is poopoo doodoo heads. Because I've returned to my childhood, as my Ma pointed out, and I like it here. I'm having fun while these dudes are pretending. And thats what I want to support in others. Start having fun and you'll find yourself in much better company.
Re: Keeping It Classy
Looks like more and more people are realizing what we've known all along through experience with said parties.
I'd rather be happy in the company of cool people.
Amidi was a member on the AN Forums for years. So was Jerry. Couldn't hack it here so they went off to play.
By the way here's someone with a big hello to AN at an industry event a year and a half ago. Keeping it classy indeed!

Re: Keeping It Classy
Joke's on me, I guess - I vaguely remembered that site having at least some integrity at some point. Maybe I just imagined it.
Re: Keeping It Classy
It was probably the class you brought with you.
Re: Keeping It Classy
What you have in essence is an individual who's used sensationalist tactics to develop traffic in shameless ways and then censor and control discussion under the guise of leading the conversation.
What I personally went through and was subjected to by virtue of a free speech forum for the professional animation community for years, at a time when the industry was in a big upheaval and transition, was not something that I would ever care to experience again.
Amidi has gotten away with things that by comparison are far worse than anything that one would see on AN or anything I did or said and there's no outrage or reaction like what I went through with AN.
I found it impossible to be friends with him or his former partner. Both are failed animators while in school and turned their attention and attitudes towards commentary and editorial content instead. They play the community like a bad fiddle. They are free to say whatever they want about anyone or anything they want but when they're called out they throw a sanctimonious fit and quit.
They don't draw nor animate, they're not filmmakers, they're not even very good writers. They've become successful by utilizing content that others create and by behaving with an extraordinary professional immaturity and apparently people in the biz don't seem nor mind nor care but that may be changing. Case in point the departure of Beck.
The dysfunction in animation which I've been talking about for years is embodied in their site. My experiences with them have been universally negative. I can't think of any redeeming aspect to my interactions with either. It's been very disappointing but liberating as well.
Life goes on! Put you time and energy into people who love you and who won't stab you in the back for more hits on their site.

Binding with Piping Video Lesson
Narrow piping inserted along your quilt binding can be the perfect finish.
|Getting Started
Narrow piping inserted along the edge of your binding can be the perfect finish for certain projects. Best of all, you can make and finish this binding completely on the sewing machine.
1. Begin by measuring around the perimeter of your quilt; add 20" to this measurement to allow for mitering corners of binding and finishing the ends. From binding fabric, make 21/2"-wide straight-grain binding this length. From piping cover fabric, make 1"-wide straight-grain strip this length.
2. Insert the yarn in the piping cover strip; loosely baste fabric over yarn piping, using zipper or cording foot (Photo A).
3. To mark the center of the binding strip, fold it in half, wrong sides facing, and press. Open binding back out so it is flat press lightly if desired.
4. Using zipper or cording foot, baste piping to center fold line of binding (Photo B). Fold binding in half with wrong sides facing.
5. Trim excess batting and quilt back so ditch between piping and binding will align with first binding stitching when binding is sewn to quilt.
6. Working from the quilt back, align raw edge of binding with raw edge of quilt back. Piping fabric will be on top of binding fabric. Stitch binding to quilt (Photo C). Miter corners and join the ends just as when applying regular binding.
7. Bring binding over edge of quilt to front. Use clear monofilament thread (or thread that matches the piping cover fabric) and a zipper or cording foot to topstitch through all layers in the ditch between the piping and the binding (Photo D).

Die hard Dolphins and Devils fan.
I admit I'm not 100% sold on Tannehill being the answer for us at QB. I'm not even close to given up on him yet either though. When we got the ball with 4+ minutes to go down by a a TD I thought of it in Finheaven terms:
If he ties the game he can build his legacy as the future franchise QB of the Miami Dolphins.
If he doesn't it will be somebody else's fault.
C'mon, thats funny because its the theme here, has been all year.
Anyway my point is of all the pundits I take Shefter's opinion on anything other then scoop extremely lightly. When I first started watching NFL Network back in 2005 he blew it with me. It was Nick Saban's first year as our head coach and Shefter was doing a camp tour on the Dolphins. He said Saban ran tthe most organized practices he'd ever seen and that the Dolphins would win at least 10 games after what he saw. The prediction was actually not bad because we went 9-7 that year. However 2 weeks later in the NFL Network season preview he had us at 5-11. That flip flop killed his credability with me.
How about
Marshawn Lynch: 1,266 yards and 9TD Compared to Reggie Bush: 622 yards 6TD
Sidney Rice 7TD
Ben Tate 7TD
Compared to D. Bess - 1TD
Hartline: 1TD
Bottom line is - Give us Atlanta's group of receivers and TE and we're easily 9-4 do you not agree?
Tanny is not accurate and is leaving too many TD's on the field because of lack of accuracy. Yes, he has lack of talent but when he has the chance, he is unable to delivered.
He only played 19 games in college, so he needs more seasoning, lets see what happens, but so far, he is not doing a good job and is one of the worse starting QB in the NFL.
Than should we draft another QB if a good one is available? Serious question. If you were calling our shots for us, would you draft someone else in the 1st?
Schefter's no fool and he's not calling Tannehill a bust. I get where he's coming from. I believe in Tannehill's future with us. He shows a poise and skillset that far exceeds our last hyped up bust (Henne). But his play now isn't really a confirmation of what we hope his future ability will be. It is what it is. We don't get a clear view of him because he has nothing to work with.

Test ID: HCO3
Bicarbonate, Serum
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
The bicarbonate content of serum or plasma is a significant indicator of electrolyte dispersion and anion deficit. Together with pH determination, bicarbonate measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous potentially serious disorders associated with acid-base imbalance in the respiratory and metabolic systems. Some of these conditions are diarrhea, renal tubular acidosis, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, hyperkalemic acidosis, renal failure, and ketoacidosis.
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Bicarbonate is the second largest fraction of the anions in plasma. Included in this fraction are the bicarbonate (HCO3(-)) and carbonate (CO3(-2)) ions, carbon dioxide in physical solution, as well as the carbamino compounds. At the physiological pH of blood, the concentration of carbonate is 1/1000 that bicarbonate. The carbamino compounds are also present in such low quantities that they are generally not mentioned specifically.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
12-24 months: 17-25 mmol/L
3 years: 18-26 mmol/L
4-5 years: 19-27 mmol/L
6-7 years: 20-28 mmol/L
8-17 years: 21-29 mmol/L
> or =18 years: 22-29 mmol/L
1-3 years: 18-25 mmol/L
4-5 years: 19-26 mmol/L
6-7 years: 20-27 mmol/L
8-9 years: 21-28 mmol/L
> or =10 years: 22-29 mmol/L
Reference values have not been established for patients that are <12 months of age.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Alterations of bicarbonate and CO2 dissolved in plasma are characteristic of acid-base imbalance. The nature of the imbalance cannot, however, be inferred from the bicarbonate value itself, and the determination of bicarbonate is rarely ordered alone. Its value has significance in the context of other electrolytes determined with it and in screening for electrolyte imbalance.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Because the determination of bicarbonate actually includes dissolved CO2, this fraction will escape from the specimen into the air once the stopper is removed from the vacutainer tube. The rate of change in the bicarbonate determination is approximately 6mmo1/L in the course of 1 hour. If the logistics in the lab are different for processing high volume routine specimens from STAT specimens, the extent of the error is bicarbonate determinations will be different. This is due to the length of time between removal of the stopper and sampling of the specimen for analysis. Fortunately the errors in either case are relatively small and of little concern clinically.
Clinical Reference Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

Possible new feature could be in game tactics.
Although we have the easy set up of quick tactics, i think it should be adapted.
Real Life situation of what i am talking about.
In a match you will see the manager standing shouting orders to players to do things, "move up", "tighter marking", "all out attack" that sort of thing.
so in the game, we could adapt the quick tactic section like thus.
on the panel at the bottom left in every game, have a menu which loads out and has orders that you can say to players or really would work easier as the team as a whole.
the game engine simulates this information and tweaks the main tactic for what you have asked the players to do.
in order to bring the tactic back to its original state, have an option to cancel orders, the tactic will then go back to its original state.

Milwaukee Is Downgraded
Moody's downgraded the City of Milwaukee's bond rating, just as Mayor Barrett is launching his third campaign for governor. Awkward timing.
April 12 (Reuters) - Moody's Investors Service on Thursday downgraded Milwaukee's general obligation rating by one notch, to Aa2 from Aa1, citing a decline in the city's propertyvaluations and resident income levels.
The move, which affects about $963 million of outstanding GO debt, came ahead of Milwaukee's planned sale of about $445 million of bonds and notes later this month, according to Moody's.

Posted in Our Planet, Our Universe
NASA scientists have broken the record for the smallest planet beyond our solar system! The newly-found planet, Kepler 37b, is rocky and only slightly larger than our moon at a mere 3865 kilometers in diameter. It is hellishly hot—it's so close to its host star that it has a 13-day orbit. This planet may be tiny, but it's making a big splash in the realms of science!
Kepler 37b's host star, Kepler 37, is one of about 150,000 stars being watched by the space-based Kepler Observatory every minute of every day. The mission was launched in 2009 to look for Earth-sized planets positioned in "habitable zones" where liquid water, believed to be necessary for life, can exist on their surfaces. In the beginning, the Kepler team could only find large planets similar in size to Jupiter and Neptune. However, the recent success in finding small planets like Kepler 37b is indicative of amazing technological achievements.
This discovery is important in the search for habitable worlds because it demonstrates that the Kepler telescope is sensitive enough to find Earth-sized planets with longer orbits. Kepler 37b has also allowed scientists to study the architecture of other star systems at the low range for the first time, and revolutionized astronomers' notions of our galaxy as a place that must be teeming with rocky planets.
Even with all of the state-of-the-art technology used at the Kepler Observatory, finding a planet is tricky. If a planet orbits a star, and the orbit of the planet aligns just right, we can see the light from the star dim slightly as the planet passes directly in front of the star. The real trick though, is figuring out the size of the planet.
NASA currently uses a process called asteroseismology to figure out how big a star is. However, the discovery of asteroseismology was not funded by NASA—it was funded by the public! A nonprofit called White Dwarf started the Pale Blue Dot project to raise money for research. They let people "adopt" a Kepler star for a $10 donation and used that money to help researchers. They ended up raising tens of thousands of dollars that funded the asteroseismology used to measure Kepler-37b. This just goes to show, when you put the power of cooperation behind the power of science, you get record-breaking results!
