Yemen: US Drone Strikes to Continue
Insists 9/11 Obligates Yemen to Allow 'Friendly Aircraft'
Yemeni National Security Chief Ali Hassan Ahmadi has announced that the Hadi government intends to continue to allow US drone strikes nationwide going forward, insisting that the alliance Yemen joined after 9/11 obligates them to permit "friendly aircraft" to operate in their nation.
US drone strikes jumped more than three-fold in 2012, and officials continue to point to the further escalation of those attacks, despite growing public anger at the civilian death toll and fear of a backlash.
Major Gen. Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi, who was installed as ruler in the US-backed single-candidate elections, has repeatedly endorsed the drone strike policy, and so long as the strikes are confined to tribal areas not friendly to his regime in the first place that is unlikely to change.
Indeed, despite no evidence that pounding Yemen with missiles is accomplishing anything, the US seems to have no shortage of regimes in the region looking to join in, with not only Hadi endorsing the attacks, but Saudi Arabia as well. The Saudis are even said to be contributing aircraft, a key in keeping specific responsibility for any given attack nebulous.

June 11, 2014
EUGENE, Ore. (GopherSports.com) - In his final meet for the No. 23 University of Minnesota men's track & field team, senior Zach Siegmeier certainly didn't disappoint.
The two-time defending Big Ten outdoor pole vault champion finished tied for fifth at the 2014 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships on Wednesday evening at Hayward Field. In a performance that earned Siegmeier his first career First Team All-America honor and second overall accolade (Second Team during this year's indoor season), the Lakewood, Ill., native cleared 5.50 meters (18-00.50 ft.).
The performance marks Minnesota's first outdoor All-America honor in the pole vault since Tye Harvey in 1998 while Siegemier's finish is the best by a Gophers' pole vaulter at the national championships since Martin Eriksson finished third in 1993.
"Zach certainly got us off to a great start at the NCAA championships today, and we couldn't be happier to see him close out his career at Minnesota with such a prestigious honor as a First Team All-American," Minnesota Director of Men's Track & Field and Cross Country Steve Plasencia said. "There were a lot of great competitors in the pole vault, and like he's done all season for us, Zach really stepped up and set the tone for us for the rest of the weekend."
In one of the best NCAA pole vault competitions since 1991, nine student-athletes cleared 18 feet or more with Sam Kendricks of Ole Miss successfully defending his NCAA title with a height of 5.70 meters (18-08.25 ft.) while Akron's Shawn Barber, Tennessee's Jake Blankenship and Eastern Illinois' Peter Geraghty rounded out the top four. Siegmeier tied with Texas A&M's Chase Wolfle for fifth in the event.
The Gophers continue to compete at the NCAA championships on Thursday with Jon Lehman in the men's hammer throw trials and finals and John Simons in the men's 1,500 meter semifinals.
Blankenship Joins Mead on Olympic Team
A native of Stillwater, Minn., Blankenship took third in the 1,500 meter final at Hayward Field, clocking a 3:36.18.
Mead Punches Olympic Ticket
The Minneapolis, Minn., native ran a 13:35.70 at Hayward Field to earn his first bid to the Olympics.
Blankenship Paces Semis at Olympic Trials
The Stillwater, Minn., native led the field with a time of 3:44.24 in Friday's semifinals.

More stuff that Konopka brings to the table - after Foligno took the tripping penalty in the 3rd, he was losing it on the refs. Konopka was the guy stepping in to calm him down. Konopka's got more PIMs than dollars now, and he's saying - "Don't worry about it, I'm killing this off for you and you're going to get the game winner" (or maybe something like, "Ahh, they're all f'ing blind anyway", who knows).

Up until April, he's been a guy who takes bad penalties and fights 3 minutes in because he thinks it'll help him keep a job. It's funny too, because Saturday was his first NHL playoff game. No one has seen this side of him since 2008 in Syracuse (look it up -> 13-3-7-10-42!).

Loving what he's doing every night.

On another note: I'm generally not clear on what "the Code" does to keep players in check. Remember 2007 when Cam Janssen laid out Leaf Kaberle (I live in TO)? I'm 99% sure that he'd take that hit again, even after Belak fought him. The Code didn't solve a thing.

However, the difference in the Sens, the Rangers, and mostly Karlsson is quite obvious after the Carkner affair. Rangers are still playing him hard, but nothing dirty, and very little after the whistle. Karlsson too, is clearly more confident since the takedown. Say what you will - it worked! That shift may be the most important 39 seconds of the series.

I enjoy your thoughts and insights tremendously.

These guys are playoff heroes, and they're a lot of fun to watch out there when the going gets tough.

Look at the fourth liners TOI for the Rangers last night, and compare them with Ottawa's. NYR's fourth-liners had between three and five minutes each; Ottawa's played a regular shift. That was huge once we got into overtime, and it will become even more important as the series goes on and--hopefully--the playoffs continue.Peter Raaymakershttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9215652504344172254.post-35145261195921670032012-04-19T11:28:10.616-04:002012-04-19T11:28:10.616-04:00i have a shot voice, a blistering headache, and af...i have a shot voice, a blistering headache, and after reading this post, a huge grin on my face - bless you, jeremy email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9215652504344172254.post-58332967870972601282012-04-19T11:19:56.659-04:002012-04-19T11:19:56.659-04:00If you're a Senators fan, and you're probably a ra...If you're a Senators fan, and you're probably a raving lunatic of one if you've found your way to some obscure blog like this

Overlapping morphologic patterns that may be observed in goiter, follicular adenoma, and papillary carcinoma can limit the cytologic evaluation of the thyroid gland. In an attempt to develop a useful adjunctive test, the immunocytochemical reactivity of HBME-1, carcinoma antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9), and CD-15 (Leu-M1) was tested on 59 cell block preparations from fine-needle aspirations of the thyroid gland. HBME-1 monoclonal antibody was reactive in all 21 papillary carcinomas, in 4 of 18 adenomas, and in 5 of 20 goiters. CA 19-9 was identified in 13 of 21 carcinomas, 1 goiter, but none of the adenomas. CD-15 was present in 15 of 21 carcinomas, 1 goiter, and 1 adenoma. We conclude that HBME-1 is a sensitive marker of papillary thyroid carcinoma. CD-15 and CA 19-9 are less sensitive but more specific. This panel can be useful to help classify morphologically equivocal lesions. As with all immunocytochemical testing, caution must be exercised in the interpretation of results, and correlation made with morphologic and clinical data. Diagn.

Im getting all confused with parsing yet again, and wondering if someone could put me out of my misery.
Heres a simplified sample of what im getting (with some basic formatting to make it a little easier to read)
Its account info, then multiple entries within that.Code:{ "apikey":"12345678","info":{"user":{"label_01":"1","label_02":"2","label_03":"3"} }, "subinfo":[ {"label":"test1","info":"test","info2":"test"}, {"label":"test2","info":"test","info2":"test"}, {"label":"test3","info":"test","info2":"test"},] }
I cant change the search results i pull, so I need to be able to make use of the bits of information i want and then i'll be able to present it how i wish.
Note: I've had to remove ''' as it auto converts to ' and screws the php formatting up, making it look like i've put ''' in there. If someone could explain how i'd add the removal of ' from the output, i'd appreciate it.PHP Code:
$apiData = file_get_contents{"http://url.com");
$pieces = explode(",", $apiData);
foreach ($pieces as $strData)
$replace = array('"','{', '}', "'", '*removed*', '[', ']');
$strData = str_replace($replace, "", $strData);
$strData = explode(":", $strData);
$strArray = array($strData[0] => $strData[1]);
$config_stat = $strData[0]."=".$strData[1];
$array = explode('=',$config_stat,2);
$strData[0] = trim($array[0]);
$strData[1] = trim($array[1]);
${$strData[0]} = $strData[1];
So that just basically dumps everything out and creates a string in the name of the label, so if i ask for $apikey then it'd return 12345678.
However when it comes to the sub-info, they all have the same label name, so i cant use $label because it'd just be the last entry.
It seems like i need multiple runs at breaking it down, but just getting what ive got already is quite a (pathetic) achievement for me, to have to break it up into 3 parts is probably a couple of steps too far.
Im guessing it'd start by using a different explode value, so instead of getting individual bits of info it pulls out the subinfo to be dealt with separately, and then break it down bit by bit like that? Im certain thats not quite the answer, but probably not a million miles away?
Any suggestions, even if its to say which php functions to go look up and i'll figure it out for myself, doesnt need to be the full solution as long as i can get there in the end.

I've got a web application that is 99% read-only, with a separate service that updates the database at specific intervals (like every 10 minutes). How can this service tell the application to invalidate it's second-level cache? Is it actually important? (I don't actually care if I have too much stale data) If I don't invalidate the cache how much time is needed to the records to get updated (if using SysCache)
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
You can manually dispose your 2nd level cache for a specific entity, entity type or a collection.
From http://knol.google.com/k/fabio-maulo/nhibernate-chapter-16-improving/1nr4enxv3dpeq/19#
If you are OK with the possibility of having some stale data, just set the default expiration to something you are comfortable with, and you'll be set.
This sets the default expiration to two minutes, so you'll never see stale data older than that.

Protestor chains himself to HELCO's doors
HOLLYN JOHNSON/Tribune-Herald
Wade Kalili protests his Hawaii Electric Light Co. bill by chaining himself to the doors of HELCO's offices on Kilauea Avenue on Friday afternoon. After police arrived, Kalili unlocked himself willingly. This isn't the first time the Keaukaha man has demonstrated outside the Kilauea Avenue buidling. On Sept. 12, Kalili sat himself in a chair outside the building's lobby with a chain around his waist and locked himself to the handle of one of the two glass front doors while his daughter filmed. And in 2009, he began holding large signs airing his grievances outside the office.

We stayed here for a short break in August to take in the sights of Munich. I found the hotel staff to be very pleasant, helpful and most importantly, welcoming. Although our stay was short the room, the breakfast (which is delicious) and the atmosphere was very good. The room was a little warm on occasion (its August after all) but this did not hamper our enjoyment we simply went out and enjoyed the city. I can recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a pleasant stay in the centre of Munich.

This is a lot like the original tater tot casserole i made. This is a really good basic recipe. The nice thing about tater tot casseroles is that you can leave as a major comfort food, or you can jazz it up to make it "big kid" food. I have made this with every vegetable combination under the sun. Sometimes I mix cream of chicken with the mushroom. I also like to saute mushrooms and carrot matchsticks with the onions when I brown the meat. But like i said, this is really good as written too!

Saint of Salvador
Oscar Romero and the Communion of the Saints
Scott Wright
Orbis, $20, 174 pp.
To mark the thirtieth anniversary of the assassination of Archbishop Oscar Romero of El Salvador, Orbis Books has published a pictorial biography of Romero that is beautifully rendered. It will serve for years as a substantive introduction to the life, death, and legacy of this great Latin American saint—there can be no other word for him.
The text is by Scott Wright, a North American who met Romero in Mexico in 1979 and subsequently spent years living with villagers in the mountains of El Salvador. He accompanied those forced to flee to Honduras during the bloodiest stages of the Salvadoran civil war, that barbaric conflict in which the United States played a nefarious but still officially unacknowledged role. For decades, Wright has worked with Salvadoran refugees in this country and has lobbied to change U.S. policy toward Central America.
Wright intimately understands the spirit of the Salvadoran people and what they suffered during the war. He also has a thorough knowledge of the literature (in Spanish, English, and other languages) that has examined Romero's life and thought over the past three decades. He draws on previous biographies, on the remarkable stories of Salvadorans who personally knew Romero, and on Romero's own writings, radio speeches, episcopal homilies, and pastoral letters. Romero had been an editor, had run a diocesan radio station, was the secretary of his country's bishops' conference, and served as bishop for seven years before...

Traditional healers of Indonesia weren't messing around when they pinpointed candlenut oil as a cure for severely dry skin. The centuries-old balm is rich in fatty acids, which makes it a great natural hydrator and all-around skin-smoother. Its velvety formula, inspired by venerable Balinese recipes, penetrates deep into dry, rough skin for instant, nongreasy softness that lasts and lasts.
This is a good moisturizing lotion. My only problem with it is probably what other people love about it, and that's the smell. It has kind of a coconut/pineapple scent, which is fine if you want to smell like the beach. I like citrus floral scents, so this clashes with basically every scent I own.3
The Juara Candlenut Body Creme was one of the first samples that I received from Birchbox and OH My! I was and still am so impressed with this creme. Not only is the scent just wonderful, the creme boasts long lasting moisture without the greasy thick feeling. The creme is silky and leaves skin just feeling amazingly soft. I love that the scent is light, nutty but not overpowering. It's almost an exotic scent. I just can't say enough about this body creme. I actually bought the 3 pack sampler that came with shower gel and a body scrub. They are all the same scent and just wonderful!
If you're looking for a new body creme or just something to treat yourself or a friend with. This IS the creme!

BERLIN—European fund manager Tristan Capital Partners, on behalf of its CCP III Fund, has spent around $40 million (€29M) to acquired the 13-story city hall of Berlin's central Mitte district. According to news outlet European Real Estate, Tristan worked with its Berlin-based partner Caleus Capital Investors, on the deal.
The seller was a closed-end retail investor real estate fund, the website said.
"This is a single tenant prime office building within walking distance of Berlin's Alexanderplatz central transport, retail and business hub," said Ali Otmar, managing director of Tristan Capital Partners. "There are very few properties in the Mitte district than can provide 20,000 square meters of contiguous office space suitable for local government occupation. Berlin, with its favorable supply/demand dynamics for well-located office properties, remains one of the more attractive investment locations we want to focus in Germany."
This is the third office property Tristan-managed funds acquired in Berlin in the last 12 months, Otmar added.
The building is used as Berlin Mitte's administrative offices, and a portion of it houses the district's council chamber. Tristan's CCP III Fund completed a final capital raising close in February 2012 when it raised $580 million (€420M)
Berwin Leighton Paisner advised Tristan and Caleus.

Given all the talk about the possibility of President Obama initiating another war of aggression, this one against Iran, now would be a good time to review the illegality of such an operation, a point that will likely be forgotten once the standard war fever and warped sense of patriotism hits the media and the mainstream public. Under our system of government, the president is prohibited from waging war without first securing a declaration of war from Congress.
Yes, I know — U.S. interventionists hate that part of the Constitution, just as they hate the part that prohibits the federal government from depriving people of life without due process of law or that part that requires a search warrant as a prerequisite for peering into people's private affairs or that part that prohibits the imposition of cruel and unusual punishments on people.
But the law is the law. If interventionists don't like the law, they can initiate the process to get the law changed. That means a constitutional amendment. But until they do that, the president and other U.S. officials are supposed to obey the law. When they don't, they are lawbreakers.
We should keep in mind how the federal government came into existence. It hasn't always been with us. The Constitution called it into existence. If the American people had not approved the Constitution, then the federal government would not have come into existence.
Our American ancestors were not terribly excited about the Constitution and the new federal government it was calling into existence. They were concerned that it might become a dictatorial type of government, even with democratically elected officials — that is, a government with unconstrained powers. They feared that if they permitted the federal government to come into existence, it would inevitably become the biggest threat to their freedom and well-being. In fact, that's why they demanded passage of the Bill of Rights as a condition for approving the Constitution.
The proponents of the Constitution and the federal government assured the people that there was nothing to be concerned about. They said that the new federal government would be subject to the terms and conditions of the document that was calling it into existence — that is, the Constitution. Among those terms and conditions was that the federal government's powers would be extremely limited — that is, limited to those powers that were expressly enumerated and delegated within the Constitution. If a power wasn't enumerated and delegated in the Constitution, it could not be exercised.
Given that assurance, the American people were finally persuaded to go along with the deal, but only on the condition that the Bill of Rights be enacted, which provided express protection of people's rights, liberties, and guarantees.
Among the most important constitutional constraints dealt with war. The Framers understood the propensity of political rulers to wage war against rulers.
More important, they understood that war was the biggest threat to the freedom and well-being of the citizenry — at the hands of their own government. War centralizes power within the government and provides all sorts of excuses to infringe on people's freedom, in the name of winning the war and keeping the people safe.
Moreover, there is the financial aspect. Wars are expensive. They entail taxes, debt, and inevitably inflation — i.e., debasement of the money. Nations go broke fighting wars, especially when the wars are perpetual in nature.
Therefore, it was vitally important to our ancestors to divide the war power into two separate powers. Congress was given the power to declare war — that is, to determine whether the nation would, in fact, be going to war against another nation-state.
The president, for his part, was given the power to wage war but only after Congress declared war. If Congress failed to declare war, the president was prohibited by the Constitution from waging war.
Keep in mind that the Constitution is the law that we the people have imposed on federal officials.
Once the federal government came into existence, it began imposing laws on the citizenry, laws that we the people are expected to obey, on pain of fine and imprisonment.
For example, the federal government has imposed brutal drug laws on the people. Many people don't believe that such laws are legitimate in a free society. Nonetheless, the federal government's position is: You can believe anything you want but if you are caught violating our drug laws, we will punish you severely with jail time and fine.
The same principle applies, however, to our law — the law that we the people have imposed on federal officials. They're supposed to be obey our law — the Constitution — just as they expect us to obey their laws.
For all too long, however, they have ignored the people's law. Ever since World War II, which was the last time a U.S. president complied with the higher law requiring a congressional declaration of war, U.S. presidents have knowingly, intentionally, and deliberately ignored the law by waging war against nation-states without the constitutionally required congressional declaration of war.
What can be done about that? I don't know.
One option would be for Congress to make it clear that from here on out, any president who violates the law by waging war without a congressional declaration of war will be impeached. Unfortunately, however, Congress has shown little interest in doing so.
Another option would be for the federal judiciary to their job and, upon an interested citizen filing a lawsuit, enforce the Constitution by ordering the president to cease hostilities. Unfortunately, however, the federal judiciary long ago made it clear that it would not enforce this part of the Constitution, no doubt because it knew that the president, who has control over the military, wouldn't comply with the court's judgment anyway.
I suppose a third option would be to seek a constitutional amendment stating: "The president shall be prohibited from waging war without a congressional declaration of war, and this time we mean it."
In the meantime, however, what we need to do is continue reminding the president, the members of Congress, the federal judiciary, and all U.S. officials that we the people are fully cognizant of their law-breaking and to make clear that we the people do not approve of it, including the waging of another undeclared war of aggression, this time against Iran.
Jacob Hornberger is founder and president of the Future of Freedom Foundation.

Acute cerebrovascular diseases (ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage, and subarachnoid hemorrhage) affect 780,000 Americans each year. Physicians who care for patients with these conditions must be able to recognize when acute hypertension requires treatment and should understand the principles of cerebral autoregulation and perfusion. Physicians should also be familiar with the various pharmacologic agents used in the treatment of cerebrovascular emergencies. Acute ischemic stroke frequently presents with hypertension, but the systemic blood pressure should not be treated unless the systolic pressure exceeds 220 mm Hg or the diastolic pressure exceeds 120 mm Hg. Overly aggressive treatment of hypertension can compromise collateral perfusion of the ischemic penumbra. Hypertension associated with intracerebral hemorrhage can be treated more aggressively to minimize hematoma expansion during the first 3 to 6 hours of illness. Subarachnoid hemorrhage is usually due to aneurysmal rupture; systolic blood pressure should be kept <150 mm Hg to prevent rerupture of the aneurysm. Nicardipine and labetalol are recommended for rapidly treating hypertension during cerebrovascular emergencies. Sodium nitroprusside is not recommended due to its adverse effects on cerebral autoregulation and intracranial pressure. Hypoperfusion of the injured brain should be avoided at all costs.

VideosThese are the video clips we viewed in class, detailing Mesopotamia as a Civilization. This is a 6-part series.
Ancient Mesopotamia, Part 1
Ancient Mesopotamia, Part 2
French translations from Part 2 Video:
Translation (from French): As the people lived their lives, they developed new and better ways to thrive in the harsh environment. They developed writing as a way of recording daily events/ keep a record of crops. They developed a religion/ belief system that reflected their view of the supernatural, highly influenced by their views of the land/ their relationship with nature. Their farming techniques were ultimately what allowed them to grow as a self sustaining civilization.
Translation from French #2 (at the end of video): The ancient peoples of Mesopotamia built structures from materials that were readily available to them. The fishermen built structures from reed while the people in the main cities utilized brick building techniques, made from local clay/ mortar. The environment greatly shaped their view of the natural world as well as the supernatural. The combination of farming/ crop distribution and fishing techniques is what allowed the civilization to grow.
Ancient Mesopotamia, Part 3
Ancient Mesopotamia, Part 4
French translation Part 4 of Video: There are many similarities between the bible and Mesopotamian mythology. Archeologists speculate that many of the stories found in the Bible have Mesopotamian origins. Many civilizations have stories about the creation of man/ about a great flood that are similar to the biblical model. Mesopotamia is one of the first to document them. Perhaps the stories were spread through travel on one of the many trade routes that existed in the ancient world. We may never know.

TOKYO, Japan, February 23, 2011/African Press Organization (APO)/ — On Monday, February 21, Mr. Seiji Maehara, Minister for Foreign Affairs, held a meeting with H.E. Mr. Georges Rebelo Pinto Chikoti, Minister of External Relations of the Republic of Angola, on his visit to Japan. The two ministers exchanged views on strengthening Japan–Angola relations, and confirmed that the two countries have reached an agreement in principle on the bilateral investment agreement. They also confirmed their intention that the two countries will continue to negotiate on the remaining points of concern with a view to the early completion of the negotiations.
Angola is blessed with a wealth of natural resources, being one of the biggest crude oil producers in Sub-Sahara Africa. Since the civil war ended in 2002, it achieved a rapid economic recovery, attracting an increasing number of Japanese private companies.
The Investment Agreement between Japan and the Republic of Angola, if concluded, will be the first investment agreement for Japan with a Sub-Saharan country. The agreement is aimed at improving the legal stability with respect to investment, and is expected to promote mutual people-to-people exchanges in tandem with bilateral investment as well as to bolster economic relations of the two countries.
