Shechita UK has said it cannot succeed without northern Jewish communities joining the fight against proposed EU labelling regulations which could spell the end to kosher meat in Britain.
Launching its northern public campaign in Manchester on Monday night, Shechita UK's campaign director, Shimon Cohen, urged the entire community to "be on the ball" in lobbying MEPs. Earlier, a meeting of 25 Orthodox Manchester rabbis agreed to mobilise their communities to the cause. Special information packs have also been sent to kosher butchers and synagogues in Leeds, Liverpool and Newcastle.
An Israeli Defence Forces chaplain has brought overseas aid to the experimental Rosh Hashanah programme run by Leeds' Beth Hamidrash Hagadol Synagogue.
The shul's Rabbi Jason Kleiman said American-born Rabbi Shalom Hammer "gave a very powerful presentation about role of observant soldier in the IDF. It was the first time shiurim ran alongside services. The feedback has been very positive." The experimental programme had found favour with many who would not otherwise engage in services.
The family of Kayleigh Chapple, the Liverpool girl who was denied a place at a Jewish school under the new admissions rules, has decided not to apply for a judicial review. But legal action may still be taken against King David High School Liverpool, which denied her a place.
Eleven-year-old Kayleigh, from Liverpool, began her year at King David in Manchester last week after the school accepted her under its admissions policy. She was the first known halachically Jewish child to fall victim to the JFS Supreme Court ruling and be denied a place in a Jewish school.
14-year-old who swam to raise £30,000 for charity has attracted the attention of an Olympic swimmer.
Arron Gould, from Prestwich, was trained by British Olympic silver medallist Kerri-Anne Payne before his 15K marathon swim on Sunday. Arron, a pupil at Manchester Grammar School, raised the money for the Christie Cancer Hospital after his grandmother, Marlene Gould, died of cancer.
His school donated the use of its pool to Arron, who was on its winning team at the national under-14s water polo championships this year.
For the first time, the Community Security Trust has acknowledged that there has been a real increase in antisemitic incidents in Prestwich, as opposed to a rise simply caused by more effective crime reporting.
According to the CST, there were 89 hate incidents in the first six months of 2010 in the King's Road area .
Addressing the Manchester Jewish Representative Council on Sunday, a CST spokesman said that the community was failing to report verbal abuse. He told delegates: "If we don't make an issue of it, it can turn into a far more violent attack in the future."
Over 180 people got ready for Rosh Hashanah by making their own shofar through a Whitefield Chabad workshop on Sunday.
Parents were encouraged to bring their own power tools but children also got the chance to construct a shofar from a raw horn.
They were told why it is sounded and about Rosh Hashanah and its customs.
Whitefield Chabad director Rabbi Shmuli Jaffe said the idea was to have "adults working alongside their kids and helping each other. It was very interactive."
Salford's Bnei Akiva bayit will be the last remaining Zionist building in Greater Manchester after the closure of Mamlock House, the former home to Manchester's Israel charities.
Manchester's Zionist Central Council is due to open its new offices at the bayit on October 4 as a temporary measure.
An extension to the bayit will be funded from the Mamlock House sale proceeds.
"It's a bit of a disaster," bayit director Shimon Gillis admitted. "We've got one large building, but loads of organisations are approaching us to use the bayit. It's going to be impossible to juggle."
The Federation of Jewish Services in Manchester is mirroring an NHS strategy with a new post to boost customer service.
Shira Baram has started work as customer care co-ordinator, a role based on the Patient Advice Liaison Service offered in hospitals, which is designed to improve the NHS by better recording feedback and complaints.
She will be the person to turn to for Heathlands residents, care clients and their families when they feel services do not meet expectations, or could be improved.
An anonymous donor is speeding the fundraising for a major refurbishment of Manchester's communal mikveh.
The benefactor has offered to match contributions from community members for the £75,000 still required.
Around £250,000 has already been raised towards work on bathrooms, rewiring, roof repairs and updating fire safety equipment at the mikveh in Tetlow Lane, Salford. The seven pool, 12 bathroom complex dates back to the 1950s.
An inquest has been opened to investigate an outbreak of suspected food poisoning at a Jewish wedding which led to the death of a woman and affected 13 others, including the bridegroom and best man.
Nine cases of salmonella have been confirmed by health officials while five other people have reported being taken ill with other complaints.
Hopes for a new communal building to house Manchester Zionist organisations have been dashed as former users of UJIA's Mamlock House disperse to separate locations.
UJIA's sale of the dilapidated north Manchester premises - which have been at the centre of local pro-Israel activity for nearly 50 years - was intended to save £50,000 annually in running costs. A number of parties have expressed interest in the site.
A newly refurbished mental health facility has been opened by Manchester's Federation of Jewish Services as part of its merger with the Healthlands Village.
Modelled on a cafe lounge, the ground floor space in Heathlands' Eventhall House in Prestwich was officially launched by Coronation Street star Jennie McAlpine at a party on Tuesday night. The actress takes a particular interest in mental health issues as her father Tom chairs a charity supporting mood disorder sufferers.
Manchester Mesivta headmaster Phaivish Pink is working to combat a shortage of highly-qualified Jewish studies teachers in Manchester schools.
On Sunday, the Torah Teachers Training Scheme, which he directs, organised a seminar in advanced classroom management skills for 25 local teachers. "There is no government requirement for kodesh staff to be qualified," Mr Pink pointed out. "But there is a growing recognition that professionally qualified kodesh staff are better and more effective."
An Israeli rabbi narrowly escaped arrest after being stopped by security officers at Munich airport for carrying a shofar.
Airport officials pulled aside Rabbi Mordechai Halperin, who is in his late 50s, and asked him to explain the religious article while arriving on a flight from Tel-Aviv on Monday night. Rabbi Halperin was visiting his daughter Esther Chitrik who lives in Nuremberg and works as an Chabad emissary in the city.
"He was in a bit of a panic," said Gigi Mechlowitz, a fellow Jewish passenger from Manchester, who stopped to help.
Senior Jewish figures were told to leave a pro-Palestinian event where controversial Israeli journalist Gideon Levy was speaking.
Manchester Jewish Representative Council vice-president Michael Samuels and ZCC director Karen Solomon were told to "get out" because they were Zionists, by the chair of a public meeting at the Quaker Friends Meeting House in the city on Thursday.
One thousand Jewish women are being sought for a major cancer study after researchers conducting a £1.5 million project say Jews hold the genetic key to preventing breast cancer.
Researchers at Manchester charity the Genesis Appeal, which runs Europe's first purpose-built breast cancer prevention centre, say only 16 Jewish women have so far agreed to take part in the study.
They fear a poor turnout could jeopardise critical medical data which could be unearthed by PROCAS, the largest attempted research into the risk of breast cancer for ethnic groups, involving 60,000 people.
Northern GCSE stars were headed by Manchester Mesivta's Simcha Brownson, 15, who gained 10 A*s and three As. Another Mesivta high achiever was Saul Yardley, who passed 12 subjects at A* and A grade.
Mesivta said it was a "bumper year" for pupils with 98 per cent scoring all their subjects at A*-C in the strictly Orthodox school's express stream, in which many students sit GCSEs at 15 so as to start yeshivah studies at 16.
The spray-painting of a three-foot high "F--- Israel" slogan in one of Manchester's busiest areas is being treated by police as a hate crime.
It was daubed in Bury New Road in the densely Jewish populated area of Broughton Park between Sunday night and the early hours of Monday.
A Greater Manchester Police spokesman said a member of the public was seen trying to clean the graffiti off the wall. The matter "was then passed to neighbourhood policing and environment services were requested to attend. It's being treated as a hate incident because of where it was and what was written".
High visibility patrols near synagogues, mobile police stations and extra hate crime reporting centres will be features of Greater Manchester Police's High Holy Days security operation.
"The efforts we have made over the years means we have more community confidence than ever before," said Sergeant Ian Campbell of Prestwich Neighbourhood Policing.
Chief Superintendent Jon Rush said the continuance of operations at last year's level was based on "positive feedback" from community members.
Whitefield Hebrew Congregation has submitted a planning application to Bury Council for the first Manchester eruv.
The proposed eruv - a religious boundary permitting, for example, the pushing of prams or wheelchairs on Shabbat - would cover under a square mile north of the city where several thousand Jews live. It would require the construction of just three eruv poles.
Whitefield Synagogue's Rabbi Jonathan Guttentag says the "ingenious" design by an eruv expert in Antwerp means it could be up and running within nine months at a lower cost than those in the London area.

[Watch] Here's What Happens When Your Side Chick Crashes Your Wedding
It's a scene out of a Tyler Perry movie.
Director Spike Lee's first feature-length film, She's Gotta Have It, premiered in theaters on Aug. 8, 1986.
She's Gotta Have It is a comedy about Nola Darling, a free-spirited African-American woman in Brooklyn, New York, and her three suitors. Lee makes an appearance in the film as one of those suitors, a bike messenger named Mars Blackmon.
Some of Lee's other notable works include Do the Right Thing and School Daze, his second and third feature-length films. Do the Right Thing won him an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay. His production company 40 Acres and a Mule has produced dozens of films -- several of them dubbed "Spike Lee joints" -- since the '80s.
In March 2014, Lee announced that Showtime would be developing She's Gotta Have It into a series for the cable network.

Presents several biological applications of near field optical microscopy, in combination with force microscopy. Aperture near field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) with fluorescence detection gives (bio)chemical specificity and orientational information, in addition to the simultaneously acquired force image. This technique has large potential for DNA sequencing, molecular organization in monolayers, and study of the role of the cytoskeleton in cellular mobility in cell growth, cell migration, formation of protrusions, etc. Fluorescence NSOM gives high resolution on flat, not too deep surfaces. Fluorescence NSOM induces virtually no bleaching, as opposed to confocal fluorescence microscopy. Bright field NSOM in transmission generally yields a complicated contrast, caused by a mixture of dielectric and topographic contributions. Shear force feedback is essential in aperture NSOM operation with fibers, and operates on soft surfaces of cells and chromosomes. Ultimately, aperture NSOM is limited by low efficiency with a source brightness of typically 100 pW to 10 nW. Thus, in spectroscopic applications (fluorescence, Raman, etc.) photon noise will be a fundamental limit in the speed of imaging. Photon tunneling in combination with force microscopy allows routine scanning with a high optical lateral resolution. However, interference effects can be dominant on surfaces which display extensive scattering. As such, the application potential of PSTM to biological surfaces is rather limited. Clearly, the virtues of optics, non-invasiveness, high spectral resolution, and high time resolution all apply to the near field optical domain with its high spatial resolution, which adds extensively to the potential of scanning probe microscopy.

Apr 16, 2014At the end of the day, Dark Souls II uses more subtle changes to find its own flavor and place in the series as a whole, rather than reinventing the wheel.
Mar 11, 2014Dark Souls II is a true hardcore challenge, and the weak of will and spine have no place in its cruel and unusual world.
Mar 11, 2014Loyal to its roots and perfectly executed, Dark Souls II is not only a worthy sequel: it is the worthiest homage to the mettle and spirit of hardcore gamers.
Mar 10, 2014Everything that made Dark Souls into a cult success carries over: complex game mechanics, punishing but fair gameplay and a richly detailed setting if you dig a little deeper. To keep things fresh, this is peppered with a mix of new elements, from improved graphics and game engine to a better designed starting sequence and new mechanics. Dark Souls II is a perfect sequel to Dark Souls.
Mar 13, 2014The core gameplay and basic design sensibilities have been retained, and while there are some concessions to player ease, they don't interfere with the gameplay
Mar 11, 2014Otherwise, Dark Souls II is outstanding, still a world better than most games and a worthy successor to a game that was, essentially, impossible to follow.
Mar 11, 2014Dark Souls 2 won't change anything: if you liked the experience FromSoftware offered in the former episodes, then you will like it again. But if not, you won't start liking now. The great atmosphere, the feeling of loneliness, the intriguing soundtrack and the difficulty still make the quality of this game. But Dark Souls 2 begins to fall behind from the technical point of view, and it's far too demanding for such old-school gameplay.
Score distribution:
Positive: 142 out of 207
Mixed: 42 out of 207
Negative: 23 out of 207
Mar 11, 2014Easily one of the greatest RPGs of this generation. If you are a gamer that wants to explore and figure things out by yourself you will loveEasily one of the greatest RPGs of this generation. If you are a gamer that wants to explore and figure things out by yourself you will love it, if you aren't then you won't like it. Like Dark Souls, this game does not hold you hand. It encourages to seek answers for yourself. But it has a more advanced tutorial section than Dark Souls. So it will be helpful to newcomers of the game.The difficulty level is even higher, and the penalty of death is even severe than its predecessor. But if you have the will, you will overcome it. The combat is excellent. It is more fluid and smooth than DaS. I have played almost 20 hours and haven't felt so excited and terrified at the same time playing a game ever before. The enemy design is quite intimidating. You won't just rush into enemies, like other games, before planning what are you going to do. I think this is the most unique game I have played in a LONG time. If you don't have the patience or just play games casually I won't recommend this game. This game needs your time. But if you overcome the challenges of it you will experience a sense of accomplishment like never before. I yelled when I beat the second boss, because he was tough and I died like 15 time trying to beat. But when I did I was overjoyed. So be prepared to die, again and again.… Expand
Mar 21, 2014This is the first Dark Souls game I've played in this series and I'm now convinced I need to go buy the first one. I was a bit weary of payingThis is the first Dark Souls game I've played in this series and I'm now convinced I need to go buy the first one. I was a bit weary of paying $65.00 for a game I new nothing about so I did a lot of research and what I found was nothing like I had ever seen before. I found that tons of reviews of the previous versions is that they were extremely difficult, challenging and rewarding. I also found that this game isn't for everyone and it's mostly for hardcore gamers. I had to take this challenge and I'm so glad I did. I don't think I've ever had a game that challenges you on the level like Dark Souls 2 does on a consistent basis. From the very beginning, you are tested in your ability to properly block, evade, or roll while finding the right time to attack your opponents. There are countless situations where you need to stop and plan ahead of how you will proceed. You may have to pull one enemy with an arrow while jumping down to evade another and kill two demons below you all at the same time. You also must fight bosses that are extremely tough and it may take quite a few deaths to learn their patterns and figure out how to beat them.
For all of the challenges you will face, this game is also incredibly rewarding! There are tons of gear, armor, and weapons for loot and upgrade. Do you risk a death to obtain an amazing ring? Or do you wait until your stronger and come back later? The beautiful thing is that it's all up to you! You have full customization options of your character and can choose from many different classes and play styles. I'm maybe halfway through and have found around 60 different weapons including: spears, swords, hammers, and bows/crossbows and around 10 different armor sets.
As you make your way through certain areas, the fact that every single creature can literally kill you, this game has a way of instilling fear into you and I find that amazing! I find myself entering new areas with a certain hesitation and with my shield raised in case of an ambush, all the while my hands are literally trembling.
I highly recommend Dark Souls 2 to any player who loves RPGs but wants to take it to the next level! You will experience fear, anger, excitement, despair, and then you will be rewarded, or die.… Expand

May 30, 2014From had some pretty high expectations to live up to with this title and they delivered. I'm a big fan of the series and this game is a veryFrom had some pretty high expectations to live up to with this title and they delivered. I'm a big fan of the series and this game is a very worthwhile addition. I was a little worried they would dumb the game down too much but this very much preserves the spirit of the previous titles. For me these games are all about perserverance and discovery. I never play with a walkthough the first time through and I always miss some major things, but it just makes the next playthrough that much more enjoyable.
And there is a lot to play here. The game is massive and easily took me over 100 hours to complete. I think the amount of content here more than makes up for any lack of connectivity between locations. That was one of the major strenghts of Dark Souls but I think From just went in a different direction here and stressed additional content over an interconnected level design. I think the game looks fantastic so I was surprised to see so many complaining about the graphics.
Most of the changes that From made for DaS 2 are a welcome addition. Dual Wielding was really nice touch and improves what was far and away the best action combat system in the RPG genre (although I wish they had put that in the tutorial because I was well over halfway though my playthrough before I even noticed you could attack with both weapons simulateously). Some of the bosses are a little lackluster (probably because there are more of them) but this game for sure has it's share of memorable and terrifying monsters - in fact that is one of the more noticable improvements over dark. souls where I felt they just recycled a bunch of bosses from Demons Souls. I've always been more of a PVE player but the multiplayer is a lot more fun for me now. The nerfed the backstab which was really infuriating in Dark Souls and I get invaded far less often in Dark Souls2. There are plenty of opportunities for PvP and it is more now covenant driven which is a direction I agree with completely. The voice acting and music are once again top notch.
There are a few changes which I didn't care for. The major one was the ease with which you can warp between bonfires. I can see some need for it because the world is really large and there are less connection points, but they easily could have limited this in some way. I think you lose a little bit of the immersion when you can just warp anywhere you want at any time. The lore and mystery is a bit lacking compared to the prior games but let's face it - this series is pretty heavy on obsurity and story has never been a huge component of the game as it is more about piecing things together on your own. That element still remains but has been toned down.
Demons Souls is still my personal favorite in the series but Darks Souls 2 is a very close second. I hope they add on a DLC pack at some point because I will probably still be playing this by the time it comes around.… Expand
Apr 6, 2014If Dark Souls 2 seems easier. Its because you have gotten really good at Dark Souls 1. You understand how to win and you understand that deathIf Dark Souls 2 seems easier. Its because you have gotten really good at Dark Souls 1. You understand how to win and you understand that death is part of the experience that makes victory all the more sweeter. The inclusion of soul vessels makes playing with builds on your first play through a deeper experience. And as you start new games or continue with new game plus you know how to build your character according to your play style. In this regard the game can become easier because you become more powerful both through stats and your understanding of enemy patterns, However there are ways to keep the difficulty up. Bonfire aesthetics when used make the enemies in the area more difficult by turning it into essentially a new game plus and it stacks. I for example made a certain area new game plus lv 4 on my first play through. There is also a covenant that makes the entire game harder by increasing enemy HP and attack strength the covenant also removes summoning signs so you will have to kill bosses solo :). The rewards are awesome for this covenant .
If you loved Dark Souls 1 there is no reason why Dark Souls would be a disappointment. It is essentially the same game but with more content and new play style approaches. The difficulty is player controlled once you master its initial difficulty.
For new comers this game will be tough but not as seemingly impossible as the first.This is due to the fast bonfire traveling and the co-op covenants which make dealing with bosses, player invasions and clearing tough areas easier. The story is pieced together via npc scripts and the lore found on items. the world and items tells you the story, it inst presented to you directly. So if you approach this as a hack and slash action rpg that feeds you story line through a friendly and animated world you wont enjoy the experience. Because there is a overwhelming sense of despair leading on to nihilism that blankets the game from start to finish. Getting through it and uncovering the games secrets requires commitment and perseverance that ultimately leaves you feeling hallow even after you win, because you want more, only to realize that more is harder and your victory means nothing.
The Bad: evading enemy attacks is unfair at times. The AI tracking is too good so good that at times i feel the game cheats in the timing of each attack. the longer the battle drags on the more unpredictable the bosses become. Since they can 2 hit or 1 hit you I feel that this is an aspect that adds an artificial difficulty to the game that will leave most frustrated. The soul vessels that allows for respecing sort of taking away from the element of making and experimenting with new characters. Since you get I 3 in your first play through it doesn't really make sense to start another hero and going through the motions.… Expand

Apr 18, 2014An unworthy successor. Following two of the best games I've ever played high standards need to be met, and ds2 doesn't come close. While aAn unworthy successor. Following two of the best games I've ever played high standards need to be met, and ds2 doesn't come close. While a great deal of it's failing can be traced to the same deeply flawed decision by the devs to make multiplayer opt out rather than opt in (present in both demon's souls and dark souls) it's disastrous implementation in dark souls 2 pales when compared to its greatest shortcomings. In both predecessors the threat of having some random fool/player/griefer drop into your game to ruin your day was always a threat and made the lack of pausing, safe zones asinine (level 3 knights shouldn't have to face off against a jerk wearing allant' s armor and a scraping spear, and I shouldn't come back from the bathroom standing next to a bonfire on top of my bloodstain) but now they've raised the bar and guaranteed to over with multiplayer. It's brilliant that the game hangs for a moment to let you know you're being invaded. Not so great when it happens again. And again. And ag... well it was happening again only while you were standing still with all those pauses the first person who invaded ran in for a backstabbing, and you're dead. Not to worry, because things could be worse, at least there aren't places where other players can pull you into their game over and over and over until your equipment is breaking and you run out of supplies and have to quit the area. Well, not before invasionland there aren't.
As lousy an implementation as is the poorly conceived multiplayer, it shines when compared to the awful camera. The camera was great in demon's souls, doing exactly what I wanted when I wanted. It was till pretty good in dark souls, somewhat twitchy but for the most part it didn't make things more difficult. This time around the camera might be the toughest obstacle in the game. Movements is quick and crisp when trying to make fine adjustments and painfully slow when it needs speed. The cameras behavior being the opposite of what is required at nearly every given moment isn't difficult, it's lazy and frustrating. If that isn't enough, the camera is stellar when compared to the controller. The slightest touch might launch you into a full Sprint, or moving further and further off center may do nothing more than keep you moving at a crawl--until you suddenly take off running. I've also gained no appreciation for the way buttons and triggers work to *maybe* cast spells, use weapons or a shield--or do multiple things all at once, back out of one menu, then the apparent menu, then hop backwards off a cliff, all with a single touch.

These muffins are great to make, freeze, and pull out of the freezer ahead of time (or popped in the microwave) for a quick and healthy snack!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 12 cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray, (or line with silicone muffin liners coated with non-stick spray).
Place all ingredients (except for chopped apples) in a blender, starting with liquid ingredients for easy blending. Blend until oats are completely ground, and batter is smooth.
Stir chopped apples into the batter until everything is well combined. Pour batter into muffin tin, dividing evenly between 12 cups.
Bake muffins for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Once again, I never said anyone was perfect. I just pointed out that they wrecked while fleeing from police, after they shoplifted and hit a vehicle in the parking lot. I am sure theywere fine, upstanding members of their church and community.Bravo Heather.
And Cindy, I have never lived in Guntersville. I have never lived north of Birmingham. I have a relative that lives in Arab.
Saying "the family mentioned has a long history of criminal intent" sounds like trash-talking their whole family to me. What a shame you feel the need to bring people down on a public forum. I will pray for you tonight for a little bit of compassion toward your fellow man.
No one is perfect and has lived a perfect life. Have a nice life, Cindy.
As far as compassion I have none for people stealing things. If their welfare check isn enough to cover what they need they could have gotten jobs as they obviously had the use of a car that would have gotten them to and from work. Funny how most poor people feel the world is against them and owe them everything they want.

By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback
Brother To Dragons is the story of a man born in the midst of a terrible time, in a deep city charity ward with extreme birth defects. Early in life he is, without knowing it, exposed to the illegal drug trade, because of which he ends up in a supposedly unescapable juvenile delinquint house with purposely lethal conditions, but somehow manages to escape. He then spends about ten years as a multi-lingual street vendor, until the government pulls him out by way of blackmail (his recent first love was, without the protagonist's knowing it, a member of an important political family). The government then uses him to find out what's going on in the country's biggest complete security prison/Toxic And Nuclear Disposal Installation facility. He comes back not only with what he was sent for, but also with a way to save the world, which he himself puts into action shortly before dying. Although I have read lots of science fiction, this book is the first book of its kind I have read (3 times!), and I look forward to reading more of Sheffield's work.

Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
A bleak "if this goes on" look at the future of America. Unlike most science fiction novels this one doesn't follow the handsome hero or powerful spy around. Instead, it follows a victim of the downspiral of social spending on education and health and his helplessness to even get near the people in power until one day they need him for a mission into the place they've exiled their scientists (can't have science, because it disturbs the status-quo that supports the upper classes...). He dies, but before dying brings out a final gift for the world, something to break the status quo once and for all. A bleak look at the present and what will happen if we let it. An important book. I am surprised Baen published it (Baen preferring upbeat books with spaceships in them). Let's hope Baen reprints it soon.

Format: Paperback
When I read this, I was unsuspecting of what this story really was. Originally I just pointed out a book and bought it. Fortunatly my choice out of blind luck turned me on this dark look at the future focusing on an unfortunate good soul growing up in the worst conditions who would change the world forever. The cover is misleading, but I didn't feel at all jipped at being mislead. Infact, I greatly appreciated stumbling upon this jewel of a story.
By MW - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback
Don't be fooled by the cheesy cover art. This is perfect, near-future hard science fiction from 1992. If you like your future dark and dystopian, with a glimmer of hope, this might be the book for you.

By Christopher M. Whitcomb - Published on Amazon.com
Format: Paperback
Easily one of the best books I've ever read. Sheffield's descriptive technique is unparalleled. As far as science fiction goes, this book could possibly be one of the 5 best books ever written, in my opinion.

About the Author
A traveler by nature, Lexx spends most of his time between the frenzied streets of New York and the slower pace of New Orleans' Vieux Carré. When not exploring the sensual psyche through his writing, he can usually be found honing his skills in the kitchen or working alongside charitable organizations to promote literacy and tolerance--two causes not only reflected in his work, but forever dear to his heart.

Prilezhaev Dihydroxylation of Olefins in a Continuous Flow Process
Epoxidation of both terminal and non-terminal olefins with peroxy acids is a well-established and powerful tool in a wide variety of chemical processes. In an additional step, the epoxide can be readily converted into the corresponding trans-diol. Batch-wise scale-up, however, is often troublesome because of the thermal instability and explosive character of the peroxy acids involved. This article describes the design and semi-automated optimization of a continuous flow process and subsequent scale-up to preparative production volumes in an intrinsically safe manner.

A Theory of Individual Behavior
Academic Press, Mar 26, 1997 - Psychology - 209 pages
A Theory of Individual Behavior dispels the notion that individuals act as rational agents and strives to capture idiosyncratic humanness through rigorous mathematics. Wichers describes a version of economic behavior that is more comprehensive and satisfying than neoclassical models yet still consistent with the usual aggregated concepts that form the basis of applied microeconomics. Written in an accessible and convincing style, A Theory of Individual Behavior discusses innovative material in a format that encourages classroom use. All chapters have questions at their conclusions, and there is a strong emphasis on testable results. The book contains a short review of mathematical models and discussion of received microeconomic theory, as well as summaries at the ends of chapters and many examples and illustrations.
Key Features
* Dispels the notion that individuals act as rational agents while capturing idiosyncratic human behavior through rigorous mathematics
* Presents an innovative approach to the evolution of microeconomic theory
* Promotes advances in behavioral theories in the social sciences, including psychology and sociology
* Delivers an accessible style with a strong emphasis on testable results

LAC-MEGANTIC, Quebec (AP) — Canadian authorities said Tuesday they have opened a criminal investigation into the fiery wreck of a runaway oil train as the death toll climbed to 15, with dozens more bodies feared buried in the blackened, burned-out ruins of this small town.
Quebec police Inspector Michel Forget said that investigators have "discovered elements" that have led to a criminal probe. He gave no details but ruled out terrorism.
Tangled debris and gas leaks hampered rescue workers' search for bodies three days after the crash early Saturday that incinerated much of Lac-Megantic's downtown and raised questions about the safety of transporting oil by rail instead of pipeline.
Investigators zeroed in on whether a blaze on the train a few hours before the disaster set off the deadly chain of events.
The death toll rose with the discovery of two more bodies Tuesday. About three dozen more people were missing.
"This is a very risky environment. We have to secure the safety of those working there. We have some hotspots on the scene. There is some gas," Quebec Provincial Police Sgt. Benoit Richard said.
The bodies that have been recovered were burned so badly they have yet to be identified.
The Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway train broke loose early Saturday and hurtled downhill through the darkness nearly seven miles (11 kilometers) before jumping the tracks at 63 mph (101 kph) in Lac-Megantic, near the Maine border, investigators said. All but one of the 73 cars were carrying oil. At least five exploded.
The blasts destroyed about 30 buildings, including the Musi-Cafe, a popular bar that was fille

In Latin America, first recorded formal interest in the Activities and Publications of the AIEE (American Institute of Electrical Engineers) was in Mexico, in 1910. A Section was formed in that city in 1922. In 1939, the first IRE (Institute of Radio Engineers) Section outside North America was formed in Buenos Aires, followed by a few more in the 1950's. After the formation of the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers), the Region 9 comprising Latin America and the Caribbean was formed in 1966; first regional director was Guillermo Andrews from Argentina. In this article we describe those early events and also detail the formation of Sections and Councils. Other topics explored include the publications of the region, its conferences and meetings, communications, student activities, IEEE award and recognitions recipients, etc.

AbstractSatCon will provide a galvanically isolated, high power density bi-directional resonant power conversion topology for the key isolated DC/DC link in developing a truly bi-directional and universal DC/AC, DC/DC and AC/DC power conversion block. This key link will be used between standard power electronics building blocks (PEBB) modules that have been designed, built, and thoroughly tested for IPS shipboard use. The PEBB modules are inherently bi-directional as DC/AC or AC/DC converters and a control variant on the standard hardware architecture will run the PEBB modules as triple interleaved boost in, buck out converters. Preliminary simulations of the selected topology have shown successful performance with all modules. It is nominally designed for '0 to 700V' DC or '0 to 480V' AC in to '0 to 700V' DC or '0 to 480V' AC out in each direction. The bi-directional resonant converter is an incremental variant on the 300kW peak, 80kHz resonant converter developed for the Army Research Laboratory for pulse power applications and incurs no switching losses in the power semi-conductor switches. It will use high frequency conversion (approx 100kHz and nanocrystaline core material for small size. The bi-directional DC/DC boost/buck three channel interleaved adaptation of a PEBB module is based on an eight channel 300kW peak battery to bus converter developed also for the Army Research Laboratory and incurs no turn on switch losses for high efficiency. High frequency and Nanocrystaline cored inductors will be used for small size.

Iraqi Oil Pipeline Near Basra Burns After Explosions, AP Says
Firefighters were battling a blaze after an oil pipeline was hit by two large explosions near the southern Iraqi city of Basra yesterday, the Associated Press reported, citing the deputy head of the Basra provincial council Ahmed al-Sulaiti.
Authorities didn't know what caused the blasts near the Rumaila oil field, while a security official said the explosions were caused by bombs, the AP said. The security official asked not to be identified because he wasn't authorized to speak to the media.

Lawyers for accused killer of AIM activist Annie Mae Aquash says Denver Police destroyed evidence
The impending trial of Richard Marshall and John Graham for the 1975 murder of Native-American activist Annie Mae Aquash (also known as Annie Mae Pictou Aquash) will take place in South Dakota -- but the Denver Police Department's been invoked by Marshall's attorney. He accuses the DPD of destroying evidence that might have helped his client; presumably, the information is connected to Arlo Looking Cloud, a man already convicted in connection with the Aquash slaying, who once lived in Denver.
The case has gotten little attention in these parts, at least lately, despite the Colorado connection. However, Aquash remains a hero to members of the American Indian Movement, and her admirers have constructed an enormous web archive devoted to her work, and to bringing her killers to justice. Learn more, much more, about the Looking Cloud trial by clicking here. And this affiliated site contains additional information about a woman whose killing remains a subject of controversy more than three decades after the fact.

Research Institution:
AbstractThis Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project aims to integrate up and down conversion materials into a single photonic device to solve the problem of mismatch between the solar spectrum and solar cells formed from single absorbers such as silicon. Cooperative nonradiative energy transfer between rare-earth dopants will be employed as the physical mechanism to support wavelength conversion. By integrating up and down converting materials, this approach will not only enhance quantum efficiency above and below the absorber band gap, but also recover losses associated with down conversion in the up converter. In this project, fluorine-based materials developed for solid state lasers will be doped specifically for solar applications, and will be tested to determine the feasibility of efficient synergistic up and down conversion between 1 and 1000 suns. The broader/commercial impact of this project will be the potential to significantly improve energy conversion efficiency of solar cells. The spectrum mismatch addressed in this work is responsible for the loss of 50% of the energy reaching solar cells. In addition, this technology does not require changes to the solar cells or electrical connections. Therefore, the integration of this optical product into solar energy systems is straightforward.

AMRITSAR, India British Prime Minister David Cameron says a giant diamond his country forced India to hand over in the colonial era that was set in a royal crown will not be returned.
Speaking on the third and final day of a visit to India aimed at drumming up trade and investment, Cameron ruled out handing back the 105-carat Koh-i-Noor diamond, now on display in the Tower of London. The diamond had been set in the crown of the current Queen Elizabeth's late mother.
One of the world's largest diamonds, some Indians - including independence leader Mahatma Gandhi's grandson - have demanded its return to atone for Britain's colonial past.
"I don't think that's the right approach," Cameron told reporters on Wednesday after becoming the first serving British prime minister to voice regret about one of the bloodiest episodes in colonial India, a massacre of unarmed civilians in the city of Amritsar in 1919.
"It is the same question with the Elgin Marbles," he said, referring to the classical Greek marble sculptures that Athens has long demanded be given back.
"The right answer is for the British Museum and other cultural institutions to do exactly what they do, which is to link up with other institutions around the world to make sure that the things which we have and look after so well are properly shared with people around the world.
"I certainly don't believe in 'returnism', as it were. I don't think that's sensible."
Britain's then colonial governor-general of India arranged for the huge diamond to be presented to Queen Victoria in 1850.
If Kate Middleton, the wife of Prince William, who is second in line to the throne, eventually becomes queen consort she will don the crown holding the diamond on official occasions.
When Elizabeth II made a state visit to India to mark the 50th anniversary of India's independence from Britain in 1997, many Indians demanded the return of the diamond.
Cameron is keen to tap into India's economic rise, but says he is anxious to focus on the present and future rather than "reach back" into the past.

Bulldogs win Saturday contests
New Albany bounced back from a disappointing Friday night loss to Tupelo, defeating Hernando and West Union on Saturday.
In the 'Dawgs game against the Tigers, Josh Creekmore and Riley Alef each had two hits in the 3-2 win. In the third inning with runners on second and third, Andrew Ballard brought in the Bulldogs' first run to tie the game at one and New Albany scored twice in the fifth to take the lead.
Tyler Basil earned the win on the mound, allowing two runs off six hits with six strikeouts. Drew Wray had the save, pitching the final inning.
In the Bulldogs' game against West Union, an eight-run second inning led New Albany to a 22-5 win. Several players had multiple hits for the 'Dawgs, with James David Morris and Joshua Googe leading with four and three hits, respectively. Wray, Ballard and Goode each had two hits, and Mason Maxey picked up the win on the mound, allowing five runs off eight hits with four strikeouts.
The successful weekend came after New Albany dropped a tough 2-1 decision to Tupelo Friday night. Tyler Beaty allowed only two hits against the Golden Wave while registering 16 strikeouts. Beaty also had the Bulldogs' only hit in the game.
New Albany (5-2) will next play on Monday against Senatobia at the Oxford Spring Break Tournament.

Bear was as described and in one piece
I thought this would be a cute keepsake for my grandbaby. This is something she and her Mommy will enjoy. Love the packaging and style.
Love these apart from the glue you can see under the heart. Nice wee keepsake though.
Its ok , i guess ... it looks great and same as the pic .. but the price is too high for a one piece !!
