National Anthem of the Republic of China
Sheet music
National anthem of Republic of China
|From a speech by Sun Yat-sen, 1924
|Cheng Maoyun, 1928
|1937 (de facto)
1943 (de jure)
|Music sample
The latest National Anthem of the Republic of China was adopted in 1937; previously, Song to the Auspicious Cloud was used as the official anthem of the Republic of China (ROC). In Taiwan, it remains the national anthem of the ROC government which remains there; but in mainland China, the anthem serves a historical role. The national anthem of the People's Republic of China is March of the Volunteers.
The anthem's words are adapted from a 1924 speech by Sun Yat-sen, via the anthem of the Chinese Nationalist Party (Kuomintang) in 1937. The lyrics relate to how the vision and hopes of a new nation and its people can be achieved and maintained. Informally, the song is sometimes known as San Min Chu-i from its opening line which references the Three Principles of the People (Sanmin Zhuyi), but this name is never used in formal or official occasions.
The text of was the collaboration between several Kuomintang (KMT) party members: Hu Hanmin, Dai Jitao, Liao Zhongkai, and Shao Yuanchong. The text debuted on July 16, 1924 as the opening of a speech by Sun Yat-sen at the opening ceremony of the Whampoa Military Academy. After the success of the Northern Expedition, the Kuomintang party chose the text to be its party anthem and publicly solicited for accompanying music. Cheng Maoyun won in a contest of 139 participants.
On March 24, 1930, numerous Kuomintang party members proposed to use the speech by Sun as the lyrics to the national anthem. The national anthem of the republic was the Song to the Auspicious Cloud. Due to opposition over using a symbol of a political party to represent the entire nation, the National Anthem Editing and Research Committee (國歌編製研究委員會) was set up, which endorsed the KMT party song. On June 3, 1937, the Central Standing Committee (中央常務委員會) approved the proposal, and in 1943, the song officially became the national anthem of the Republic of China.

The lyrics are in classical literary Chinese. For example,
- ěr (爾) is a literary equivalent of both singular and plural "you" (which are differentiated in modern Chinese) depending on the context. In this case, it is plural "you".
- fěi (匪) is a classical synonym of "not" (非 fēi). And
- zī (咨) is a classical, archaic interjection, and is not used in this sense in the modern vernacular language.
In this respect, the national anthem of the Republic of China stands in contrast to the People's Republic of China's "The March of the Volunteers", which was written a few years later entirely in modern vernacular Chinese.
As well as being written in classical Chinese, the national anthem follows classical poetic conventions. The ancient Fu style follows that of a four-character poem, where the last character of each line rhymes in -ong or -eng, which are equivalent in ancient Chinese.
English translations[edit]
The official translation by Du Tingxiu appears in English-language guides to the ROC published by the government.
|San Min Chu-i,
Our aim shall be:
|Three Principles of the People,
The foundation of our party.
Lines seven and eight of the Du and literal translations seem to vary dramatically, but the Du translation is actually just in inverse order, probably to suit a more natural English word order. The words "day" and "night" are replaced by the metonyms "sun" and "star". Being so compact and concise, classical Chinese poetry allows for a great amount of license in interpretation.
The real differences are caused by the official interpretations, where some political and martial words have had their other connotations emphasized:
- "Our party" (吾黨) has been extended to be "our alliance", meaning "of us together", including the non-party members. (Translated in the Du version as "our")
- "Warriors" (多士) personifies the persistence and fighting spirits in all citizens, including the civilians. ("Comrades")
- "Vanguard" (前鋒) symbolizes the "model citizens".
The "great unity" (大同) has been interpreted to mean "total world harmony" (世界大同) and is a Confucian term used in the Great Learning as the ultimate aim that humans should strive for. In the nineteenth century, the term was also occasionally used as a translation of the term "socialism" (共産); the later popular Chinese term for communism was coined by Japanese and has no Confucian morphological roots. Sun Yat-sen's philosophy was that by providing for a strong China which could relate to the world as an equal, world harmony could be achieved.

Christmas Lumber Co. opened its doors in 1926.
It was a time of prosperity in Harriman, with a number of industries along the Emory River.
That would change a few years later. A couple of devastating events, namely the flood of 1929 and the subsequent stock market crash that led to the Great Depression, wiped out a number of businesses.
But Christmas Lumber, a family-owned and -operated business, weathered through it all with dedicated employees and customers.
It continues today to provide lumber and other services to clientele including builders, remodelers, plumbers, electricians, dock builders, commercial and industrial customers.
"We have competitive prices, and we have the best service; it is as simple as that," said Tony Roberts, who has been with the company since February 1976.
"If you take care of your customers, they'll come back."
In addition to lumber, the company builds trusses, hangs doors and has other elements for construc-
"We ship trusses all over the South, really," said Vice President Theron "Tee" Cleveland IV.
"We also distribute some windows."
The company still ships and receives lumber by the rail line that runs through the property.
The company first expanded from its 1926 location by buying neighboring Stowers Lumber Co.
An old building on the warehouse property on Emory Road is believed to have survived the 1929 flood and conveniently rested where it would be of use to a thriving business.
It's still in use.
"It was an old factory on up the river, and it floated down here. This is where it landed, and this is where it stayed," said Cleveland, his family's fourth generation in the business.
Cleveland's father, Theron Cleveland III, operates the Knoxville store.
Other family members, including his mother and aunts, are also involved in the company as well.
Aunt Debby Lutz is chairwoman.
"I knew all along this is what I wanted to do," the younger Cleveland said. "I like the business. I like the people side most. I like dealing with customers, meeting new customers and trying to help them find solutions. If we have a successful customer we are going to be successful."
Tee Cleveland is the great-grandson of founder James David Christmas, who served at one time as Harriman mayor.
Cleveland's grandfather, John Smith, now 88, bought the popular lumber and hardware company from his father-in-law.
"He still comes in the office," Cleveland said. "He was president and chair of the board."
Cleveland praised his grandfather for taking Christmas' vision and making it strong when he took it over in 1954.
"We didn't have a whole lot of money," Cleveland said. "He had to squeeze by the early years for a long time to keep the doors open. He was really frugal. We were able to withstand."
One step Smith took was to get out of the lumber production business. It's now a lumber distribution center.
The company's warehouse along Emory Road was significantly damaged by fire in 2000.
The housing decline after 2008 also hurt the company.
"We are finally starting to get out of the woods," Cleveland said. "People are finally starting to build again."
One mainstay at the store nowadays is a sweet short-haired brown pooch named Maggie, a Vizsla.
She belongs to Allen Gaines, son of longtime president Walter Gaines who retired in 2011 after 23 years.
"They have always been good to me, and they let me bring my dog to work, don't they, Maggie?" Gaines said.
"She comes to work with me every day," he added. "When I ran the yard, she rode on the little Gator with me."
Cleveland noted, "We have customers that come in just to see her."
The company remains dedicated to the community including establishing a scholarship at Roane State Community College and donating land for Harriman Riverfront Park.

The Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group is please to announce a public meeting on workers' struggles in China
Date: Thurs 23 February
Time: 6:30 p.m.
Venue: New International Book Shop, Trades Hall, Victoria St., Carlton 3053
In mid-2010 a strike wave rolled through Chinas factories, the most widespread and militant struggle of Chinas internal migrant workers so far.
The struggle shook the Chinese regime and provoked a world-wide debate: Is this the beginning of the end of the low-wage-model that stands behind Chinas rise to the "factory of the world" and providesthe rest of the world with cheap consumer products?
The strikes continued in 2011, and together with riots and peasant uprisings they are indicators for the increasing pressure for social change in China.
This talk/discussion (including a ten-minute film) will focus on thestrikes, the formation of a new working class movement in China, and the implications for social struggles around the world.

7 of 7 people found the following review helpful
A great read,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: My Name Is Joe (Paperback)
I wasn't sure what to expect when I purchased my copy of My Name Is Joe and to be honest I was a little afraid of it. I don't normally read stories within this genre and especially ones about terminal cancer as I lost my father to the disease when I was a child. Having been a fan of Stefan's other books however, I had to give it a try and I'm VERY glad I did. My Name Is Joe reads as if it had come from someone who'd actually lived through the tragedy which Joe sadly found himself mired in. The emotion which runs through the story is very real - from Joe's anger at his situation to his sadness at missed opportunities. My Name Is Joe is a huge step - one giant leap - in a very different direction for its author and Stefan managed it superbly, flawlessly.
As the book came to a close I found myself sad that it was ending, both for Joe's sake and my own, but still, as I closed the book for the last time I couldn't help but smile. My Name Is Eryk, and I just made a new friend whose name is Joe.

It's Hard As Hell To Party Like Its the 1940s (Census)
Let there be records! Yesterday, the National Archives flicked on the switch for the 1940 census, marking the end of 72 years of confidentiality that held the records back from the public. In less than four hours, the site was paralyzed after being hit with 22 million visitors as people across the country clamored to fact-check their family's oral histories heard from grandparents everywhere.
With a database like this, New York in the 1940s is open to the public's eye. Think about it: you could find Truman Capote, James Baldwin and Allen Ginsberg (to name a few members of the city's cream of the crop at the time) if you put enough effort into it. But, here at the Voice, we found that the search can prove to be tedious, long and unsuccessful if you only have snippets of information to toss into the browse window.
Here's how it works: the 1940 Census does not have a simple last name search feature so, right away, you must do a little web adventuring of your own unless you know where Capote lived (our guess: somewhere near Tiffany's). Instead, the homepage asks you for your ancestors' enumeration number (ED #) - the code given to cut up and organize areas. Assuming you or someone close to you knows this tidbit of knowledge offhand, memorized in the case that the 1940 Census would
ever go online or be needed on Jeopardy, your quest is exponentially easier. Alas, if you do not know the ED #, the site directs you to the Location Search.
This is where it gets technical. Once you have inputted 'New York' as your state and entered one of the five boroughs as your county, you are faced with a neighborhood conundrum. The 'City' option does not include any small towns inside of these boroughs; so, for example, you couldn't look strictly at areas like Williamsburg, Bensonhurst, Harlem or Greenwich Village. Instead, you are forced to enter a street name and hope for the best.

We searched for two family members to test the efficiency of the system. The first one's street address was known: Elderts Lane in City Line, Queens. After that data was entered, hundreds upon hundreds of ED #'s flashed the screen since, to our dismay, Elderts Lane spans through other neighborhoods. In a "I'm Feeling Lucky" Google move, the first ED# was chosen and put into the ED search feature. Now, you are faced with one census schedule that's twenty-eight pages long. And these are not simple windows to flick through: the documents given appear similar to a shitty scanned document your professor gave you in college. With 28 pages, averaging about 20 to 30 people on each, we were about ready to rip our hair out at this point. Now, with this being said, imagine the results we received for the other
family member, whom we only had one piece of data for: that he or she lived in East New York, Brooklyn. The neighborhood that lies due west of Park Slope is not necessarily large in the least bit so there was no sensible reason why it spanned numerous ED#'s. To look through every resident's last name would take years off of our lives, so we gave up, information-less and ancestrally alone.
Fortunately, according to the U.S. National Archives' Twitter, 300,000 volunteers of presumably pissed off family members are putting together a name index to get this overload in order. As the site rebuilds itself after its Monday evening collapse, the Voice will try again in the near future to see if New York in the 1940s was all what
it was cracked up to be.

30 hand picked films. A new one every day
From the novel by D.H. Lawrence, Ken Russell's story of the stormy relationship between two sisters (Glenda Jackson, Jennie Linden) and their men-friends (Alan Bates, Oliver Reed).
Outstanding direction and cinematography. Though I found some scenes a little outta place, the movie works fine as a whole. Also, its exploration of nudity, love and sexuality is incredibly audacious. The Bates/Reed naked wrestling scene is not only memorable, but one of the most homoerotic moments I have ever seen.
Oh, Ken, why do you hate women in love?
Lawrence stripped down and dressed up. Russell provides strictly the bullet points with respect to the novel's characters and sexual ideology -- in fact, the former would serve little purpose except as a delivery system for the latter were it not for Russell's perhaps still greater fascination with stylistic effulgence and its concomitant erotic charge, culminating in a wrestling match in which beauty is the beast.
an outstanding performance by Glenda jackson
A fireplace of love.
Extraño y atractivo filme sobre el amor en su versión más compleja. La historia de dos parejas que van a través de la voz (y el imaginario) masculino y se van creando conceptos, deseos, esperanzas y formas para amar. La amistad como otra modalidad del amar. "Women in love" es la mirada conflictiva de parejas orgullosas, restringidas u obstinadas. Russell tiene estilo cuando hace alegoría al deseo o la masculinidad.
As a film, both full fig (indeed dressed as only Ken Russell could) and one for which most certainly to give a fig.
wonderful cinematography

It's OK as long as the tablet isn't a controlled/extended release version. As already stated, follow the prescription directions given to you. I wouldn't expect you to get much pain relief from just 25mg though?
I have a difficult time taking meds. So I always start with half. It did help but now I must see if it's an extended relief. Thank you.
As a general rule they order the dose that is the therapeutic dose. If you want to take less, you should clear it with your doctor.

You didn't state what your pain problem is from or how long you have had it. I want you to read about Ultram or tramadol which is the generic name of this med. I am giving you the link below. Please read it carefully... Mary
Back pain for many many years. I checked with pharmacist--not an extended relief tablet, so it's ok to take half. I will eventually build up but it takes me a while. The 1/2 did help. Doctor told me to take every 4-6 hours, as needed. I have read the ultram website and others about it over and over. I just have a hard time with meds.

RJ continues its Ramadan charity campaign in the south of Jordan, Mafraq and Zaraqa
Amman, July 30, 2013 - Royal Jordanian continues its goodwill campaign that started at the beginning of the Holy Month of Ramadan. It involves distributing food parcels to the less privileged families in different governorates around the Kingdom and also holding iftars for a big number of orphans.
The Ramadan campaign has become a part of the airline's corporate social responsibility and of its interaction with the local community. The company feels it is its duty toward the nation and its responsibility toward the less fortunate to help, so it carries out these campaigns, based on the values, religion and morals of the Jordanian society. Sustainable corporate social responsibility is an essential element of the airline's work and values.
RJ delivered aid parcels to the less privileged citizens in cooperation with the social development directorates and local community organizations involved in voluntary charity work.
This year's campaign included holding four iftars for a large number of orphans in Amman and other cities. The banquets had entertaining programs and RJ gave away presents to orphans, bringing joy to their hearts in this holy month.
Royal Jordanian launched its annual Ramadan campaign by hosting an iftar for 250 orphans from charity associations in Amman and the northern Jordan Valley. The iftar was held in cooperation with the Children's Museum of Jordan, one of Queen Rania Al Abdullah's non-profit educational initiatives.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 22.214.171.124
I look after a site that has been trading properly for around 6 months and is ticking over on adwords. The client would like bigger exposure and is willing to fork out so long as they can get the sales back.
I figured an affiliate scheme was a good way to go as we'd be only be paying out on actual sales which is fine as the margin on the product is good.
I've fished around and there are quite a few but the prices and styles vary wildley. The one i'd like to go with is also the most expensive set-up and a high monthly fee, and hence might not provide the best ROI, but if it does then the fees would not be a problem.
What are peoples experiences on which UK schemes have the best reach, support and value for money.
If your the site has been up and running for 6 months then that probably puts you in the SME market and there are networks who specialise in this area with lots of SME clients - good reach of niche affiliates as well as some of the larger affiliates and low monthly costs.
Paidonresults if they will take you or Affiliate Future would be the better choices in my opinion for an SME looking to make a good start
Hope that helps
However you should also look at the other merchants each programme has on its list as a specialism might be relevant -for example Online Media Group has by far the strongest UK list in the financial sector.
Somebody recommended Paid on Results in your thread and I would certainly recommend them. I belong to about eight UK affiliate networks and would say Paid on Results is my personal favourite.
I know Clarke, Graeme and the other people running the network and they are all hardworking, dedicated people, who provide a fantastic level of service. They have very low fees.
A poll was done recently on a4uforum.co.uk and the most popular UK network came out to be Affiliate Window. So they are also worth considering too.
If you'd like any advice on the UK networks, feel free to give me a shout through the forum :)
Great move I am glad you took my advice . Clarke will look after you.
Just a quick note and I hope you take this in the spirit its meant but buy.at will not take your program on board as I try my hardest not to corss swords with Paidonresults as Clarke is a someone I know and respect.
You will be fine with the network you have chosen they are good guys who know what their doing.
When companies ask me which network to go with I always recommend POR, buy.at and AW. Buy.at is definitely better than so many others I could mention and the staff are certainly the friendliest and most approachable. I'd give the company 9 out of 10, the 1 missing because of the interface which I know you are updating: make sure the font size is bigger in the new version! :)
P.S. Mal - when is the new interface due to be launched approximately?
I am sure he wouldnt have a problem with it , all the more reason not to do it in my book. Clarke is a friend ad I want POR to get as much pie as they can we have plenty to be going on with :-)
9 out of 10 is good but ill get you that extra 1 soon mate :-) Delays have come as other developments took priority - an improved interface is important but not as important as other things as its not broke just could do with a touch up to bring us level with some of the more intuative interfaces out there . After seeing some competitor networks make an arse of interface upgrades I want to make sure ours is bang on like everything else we try to do.
Cheers for the support mate comments like yours make it easy to get out of bed in the mornings to come and do it all again.
I'm planning my budget for a new site that will be launching this month and I was wondering if you could give me some 'ballpark' prices of how much I should budget to become a merchant who is available on the affiliate networks.
I realise that this is probably on a case by case basis, but some ballpark pricing would allow me to either dismiss it for now or to build it into my budget.

How to dedicate external sd card room to Internal storage? (self.AndroidQuestions)
submitted 3 years ago * by Sabata11792
I have ran out of space on "Internal Storage" is their a way to repartition some of external my sd-card to Internal storage. I want to avoid reformatting or app removal if possible.
Space(all info available from stock storage list I don't know of any apps to list out partitions)
I want to remove from the sync partition(?) on the SD Card and dedicate it to app and internal storage. Im note even sure you can do this.
[–]gnimsh1 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (2 children)
Partition your sd card to create a 1 or 2 GB fat32 partition. Install link2sd and point it to the new partition. Tell it to link all new apps to the sd card. This should take care of your problem.
[–]Sabata11792[S] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (1 child)
Thank you! I figured that the stock Apps to SD was moving from the phones storage to the internal SD rather than external
[–]gnimsh1 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children)
link2sd is cool because it actually moves the files but then symlinks them back to where they would actually be installed on your system, tricking the system into thinking it has much more space free in the internal partition than is actually there.
BTW it works best if you have root (so you can move apps that you otherwise wouldn't be able to move).

Up, Up and Away: The West's Hysterical Reaction to North Korea
Posted on Apr 17, 2009
By Scott Ritter
Six minutes before 1 o'clock in the afternoon, on Jan. 23, a 173-foot-tall, two-stage rocket lifted off from Northeast Asia. Capable of carrying a giant 33,000-pound payload, the rocket's liquid-fuel engine, supplemented by two solid-fuel strap-on booster rockets, generated nearly half a million pounds of thrust before giving way to the second stage, likewise powered by a liquid-fuel engine. After reaching a height of nearly 430 miles, the rocket released into orbit a 3,850-pound satellite, along with seven smaller probes. Other than the small community of scientists interested in the data expected to be collected from the "Ibuki" Greenhouse Gases Observatory Satellite (GOSAT), the rocket's main payload, very few people around the world took notice of the launch. The United Nations Security Council did not meet in an emergency session to denounce the launch, nor did it craft a package of punitive economic sanctions in response.
The reason? The rocket in question, the H-2A, was launched by Japan, at its Tanegashima Space Launch Facility. Deemed an exclusively civilian program, the H-2A has been launched 15 times since its inaugural mission on Aug. 29, 2001. Four of these launches have been in support of exclusively military missions, delivering spy satellites into orbit over North Korea. Although capable of delivering a modern nuclear warhead to intercontinental ranges, the H-2A is seen as a "non-threatening" system since its liquid-fueled engines require a lengthy fueling process prior to launching, precluding any quick-launch capability deemed essential for a military application.
In contrast, on April 5, at 11:30 in the morning, North Korea launched a three-stage rocket called "Unha," or "Milky Way," which it claimed was carrying a single small communications satellite weighing a few hundred pounds. Like the H-2A, the "Unha," better known in the West as the Taepodong-2, is liquid-fueled, requiring weeks of preliminary preparation before launch. Although North Korea declared the vehicle to be intended for launching a satellite, the launch was condemned even before it occurred as "dangerous" and "provocative," unlike Japan's similar efforts.
The Taepodong-2 launch was the second attempt by the North Koreans to get this particular design airborne. In 2006, the first effort ended in failure when the rocket exploded some 40 seconds after liftoff. The second launch, by all accounts (except North Korea's, which announced that its satellite was successfully orbiting the Earth, broadcasting patriotic music), was likewise a failure. The first stage, based on a Chinese design derived from the CSS-2 missile, seemed to function as intended, given the fact that it splashed down in the Sea of Japan in the area expected. However, the second stage, together with the smaller solid-fuel third stage designed to boost the satellite into orbit, fell several hundred miles short of its anticipated impact area, indicating a failure of the second stage to perform properly and, ultimately, launch the satellite. Western hysteria, which labeled the North Korean rocket a direct threat to the western United States, prompting calls for the missile to be shot down, proved unfounded.
In October 2006, in response to North Korea's announcement that it had conducted an underground test of a nuclear weapon, the Security Council of the United Nations passed Resolution 1718. This resolution, passed under Chapter VII of the U.N. Charter, condemned the North Korean nuclear weapon test and called for the imposition of economic sanctions until North Korea's nuclear weapons program was dismantled and its nuclear program as a whole reintegrated into the nuclear nonproliferation treaty. It also singled out North Korea's ballistic missile programs, demanding that Pyongyang "not conduct any further ... launch of a ballistic missile" and "suspend all activities related to its ballistic missile program and in this context re-establish its pre-existing commitments to a moratorium on missile launching" and "abandon all other existing weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile programme in a complete, verifiable and irreversible manner."
Square, Site wide
The April 5 launch was widely condemned by the United States and others (including Japan, which assumed a leading role in framing the North Korean test as "destabilizing" and "dangerous"). President Barack Obama characterized the North Korean launch as a violation of Security Council resolutions and pushed for the council to punish Pyongyang. However, not everyone shared the sentiments of the United States and Japan. Both Russia and China questioned whether the launch was in fact a violation of Resolution 1718, noting that North Korea had every right to launch satellites. The best the United States and Japan could get from the U.N. Security Council was a statement issued by the council president condemning the launch as a "contravention" of Security Council Resolution 1718 and demanding that North Korea "comply fully" with its obligations under the resolution. The statement also demanded that North Korea not shoot off any more rockets or missiles.

This is an excellent and interesting article. Sadly, it only confirms my distrust and cynicism over the West's (led by the US and joined by Israel) growing double standards.
It is hard to understand what goes on behind the scenes; why Obama and European leaders are all 'playing' along with this duplicitous pretence.
Why does Israel have such a hold over the West and the UN?
There are so many unanswered questions.

I grew up hearing about how Hitler invading, and firing on other countries, and the reaction from our country, but now, it is our country doing the invasions, and firing Drones into others, because Bush gave himself the permission, and Obama, is following, but have nerve to get upset, concerning Korea launching a missile. I suppose the US, and Israel, are the only ones allowed to play hitler.

Too bad the quality of the comments here come nowhere close to the quality of Scott Ritter's article. As to the article, Scott shows a historian's perspective on a contemporaneous situation. So much of humanity seems incapable of imagining things from other than their own point of view, and then discussing or acting on that alternate perspective.
By bEHOLD_tHE_mATRIX, April 19, 2009 at 11:11 am Link to this comment
The US will always have enemies. That is the way our MIC is geared. To have no enemies is failed policy.
Keep the electorate looking outward not inward for their necessary objects of disdain.

"...Besides which, where is the pandemonium when Japan, Pakistan, Israel, India, Russia and the U.S. refine, test and launch their own ballistic missiles?"
We're supposed to accept the theory that those countries aren't quite as crazy as Korea. (Didn't you get the memo?)

Hypocricy, duplicity, complicity, idiocy and any other -ity or -icy you can think of all come into play in the criticisms and faux indignance. No one should be surprised and no one should pretend to be aghast. And the more you taunt and starve the rat, the more it will try to chew and claw through the sides of the box.

According to former Trident engineer Bob Aldridge-www.plrc.org-the Pentagon aims to achieve a disarming and unanswerable first-strike capability. According to Bob Aldridge the US Navy can track and destroy all enemy submarines simultaneously. Please see the article by Keir Lieber and Daryl Press, "The Rise of US Nuclear Primacy" in the 2006 March/April issue of Foreign Affairs. Minuteman-3s and Trident-2 D5s linked to NAVSTAR obtain a CEP of 30-40 metres, enough to destroy any hard target. A First-Strike Capability won´t be complete without the missiles in Poland to shoot down any surviving Russian missiles. Even if it´s only for blackmail, the Russians may have no choice but implementing Launch On Warning.

Additional Notes
Complaint: I had FROSTY's on the contract to maintain my HVAC unit for about three years 2011-2014. On October 31, 2014 FROSTY's technicial visited to inspect my HVAC unit as part of the twice-a-year inspection. He recommended to replace the HVAC unit. On that day I renewed the service contract with FROSTY's for one more year (October 31 2014-2015). Later FROSTY's provided me with the price offer for the new HVAC unit. I compared it to other quotes and decided to go with another provider. Once the installation was complete, I decided to cancel my service contract with FROSTY's. However, FROSTRY's refused to reimburse the entire value of the contract claiming that I have to cover the last inspection (October 31, 2014) - which in fact was covered under the previous contract. As part of the contract, FROSTY's provides two inspections per year - before and after winter. I was away during the spring of 2014 and hence didn't schedule technician's visit. When I called FROSTY's to schedule a visit in the fall the representative told me that it was going to be free since I didn't have a visit in the spring. I scheduled the visit for October 10. Later I had to reschedule as I was going to travel on October 10 and hence I rescheduled for October 31. When I rescheduled the visit, FROSTY's representative didn't tell me that my service contract with them was going to expire before Oct 31 - hence now they claim that I have to compensate them for the technician's visit last year, and they could only reimburse the difference (which they were very painful about - I spoke to the manager in December - she was extremely rude. I tried contracting her later, but it seems she is in a perpetual meeting). Hence I haven't receive a single cent of my money! Considering FROSTY's didn't notify me that my service contract was going to lapse when I called them to reschedule, I request the reimbursement of the entire contract value (about USD 170).
Desired Settlement: Reimbursement of the entire contract amount, and not just the difference between the contract amount and the technician's visit (which I haven't received a singe cent)
Business Response: *********- *** *********** is on our annual service agreement. That does include a spring check of the AC system and a fall check of the heating system. Each season we do everything in our power to ensure our agreement customers receive everything they have paid for. When we begin our scheduling process we start by sending each customer an email informing them it is time to schedule. If we do not get a response we proceed by completing two (2) rounds of phone calls to schedule their appointments, and if we still do not manage to connect with the customers we mail them a post card. Our agreements state in writing that this agreement "automatically renews annually unless written notice is supplied from either party thirty (30) days in advance" *** ***********'s agreement was due to renew in the fall of 2014. He scheduled the service call and we supplied the service of performing his fall inspection of the heating system on October 31, 2014. At that time the fall visit was counted as the first inspection of a renewed service agreement which he signed and paid. Since the agreement was renewed and paid the service call fee of $129.95 was waived. When *** *********** called our office and spoke with the office manager in December, even though he had not followed the terms of the agreement, she offered to cancel the annual agreement and discount the charges for services completed to the $129.95 giving him a refund of $60.05 as our service agreements are actually $190 per year. At that time *** *********** stated "I will need to think about this" and hung up on her. We have not received any communication from *** *********** since, as we were unclear on how he wanted to proceed his agreement is still in place. As the fall service was not part of the previous agreement and our technician did a full check up on his system there is still a charge incurred. I am willing to increase the discount to $95, exactly 50% of our annual service agreement that was paid since *** *********** has already received 50% of the work included in what he paid for. I believe he is using another vendor but I will still offer him another free check up to finish out his maintenance if that is more acceptable. Sincerely, James B**** Presdient
Consumer Response:
[A default letter is provided here which indicates your acceptance of the business's response. If you wish, you may update it before sending it.]
PS I called FROSTY'S three times over January-February and left three messages for the manager - I have received zero calls back.. BBB was certainly a more effective way of communicating.
Problems with Product/Service
Read Complaint Details
Additional Notes
Complaint: Over the weekend of July 26th, my husband and I noticed that our A/C was unable to cool below 75º. We reside in a condominium at **** ******** Of *********** (****), and about 3-1/2 months ago a major water leak occurred in our building. According to the condominium bylaws, the association is responsible for testing and repair of the HVAC system, and Frosty's was contacted as the association's repair service. As a result, Frosty's assessed that the unit was operable after repairing the circuit board. So with the recent development of our A/C's inability to cool below 75º -- and only residing in the apartment for two weeks after the flooding three months ago -- the problem could likely be related to the flooding, and therefore I decided to contact Frosty's to recheck our HVAC unit. The technician left to work on the rooftop where the system valves are located. About 45 minutes later, he returned with a bucket in hand and asked if he could fill his bucket with water. I asked why he needed to fill his bucket with water. He said, "I need to cool down the compressor." The rest of the exchange went like this: "Why do you need to cool down the compressor?" "Because it's overheating." "Why is it overheating?" "Because it's charged wrong." "And why is it charged wrong?" "Because the wrong refrigerant was used." At this point I said, "You used the wrong refrigerant?!" He responded, "I didn't say that. When did I say that?" I instructed him to go back to the rooftop, cool the compressor, add the refrigerant and that's it. Don't do anything else. I asked if he added the dye, and since he had not, I told him specifically, do not add the red dye and do not to do anything more. I then called his office manager immediately and told her everything that was occurring and asked if it sounded right to her. She said she couldn't say because she was not a technician but would call his manager (the owner) and have him call the technician. I then reiterated that I wanted her technician to cool down the compressor, add the refrigerant and to cease from doing anything else. Do not apply the red dye. I called back ten minutes later to tell her to have the owner call me. At 12:42 I received a call from the owner, ***** Caramberis, and told him about his technician. His response was that his technician was doing the right thing by cooling down the compressor. He then said that I should not have run it overnight on cool and that was why the compressor overheated. Well then I said, he had two problems: When I made the appointment, I was instructed by his office manager to, "overnight, turn the fan to 'on,' not 'auto,' so it won't be iced over when the technician comes to fix it in the morning." He then said she should have said to turn the A/C off. I told him he may have damaged my compressor and as a manager he should be taking responsibility. He then proceeded to tell me that I was wrong and that his technician did the right thing and he could not have used the wrong refrigerant because there are only two refrigerants. I replied, "Well maybe he used the wrong one." I told him to call me back later to let me know how he plans to resolve this. His response was that if I was expecting him to pay for anything, he's not responsible and there is nothing wrong; the compressor is fine. I told him if he damaged my compressor he would be hearing from me. And again, his final words were that the compressor was fine, and the compressor is not damaged. The next day, I called another HVAC company to check my A/C. First, he was surprised that the Frosty's technician said there was a leak before checking the rooftop. The only way of knowing if there is a leak is to check the system on the rooftop. To make a long story short, the HVAC technician reported red dye covering the system valves on the rooftop and the proof was all over his hands. Then he explained that my compressor was making a grinding noise and it was not starting at the same time as the unit in my apartment. It should be starting simultaneously, but it takes 2-3 turns until it finally catches up to the inside unit. His assessment was that the compressor is not operating properly and could break down at anytime. I called Frosty's twice that morning, August 31st, and left two voicemails asking if they could tell me how much the quantity "1" is in the "1 refrigerant" on their invoice. (For your information, this is important for the technician to know if it is 1 pound, or how much refrigerant exactly was put into the system because $389 was way too expensive for one pound.) Frosty's never returned the call. For your information, others have had similar experiences with Frosty's as reported on yelp. Note the 2-1/2 star rating and the owner's numerous excuses in response to negative reviews: ******************************************************************* *** * ******* **** **************************
Desired Settlement: Compensation for damage done to my HVAC system due to gross negligence. $1,500.00 for a new compressor. A written report is available.

[To assist us in bringing this matter to a close, you must give us a reason why you are rejecting the response. If no reason is received your complaint will be closed Administratively Resolved]
The owner, ***** *****, has no qualms about lying.
Regarding his statement that he does not use a red dye, please see the exchange in my complaint with his service guy, ***, his office manager at the time, ***, and either ***** ***** himself, or some other fellow named ***** *** who was certainly responding as though he was the president of the company.
As mentioned in my complaint, his technician, ***, said he uses a red dye, even asked me before leaving my condo if I was sure I did not want the red dye inserted -- because apparently he disregarded my instructions and inserted it anyway. The next day when I had another HVAC technician inspect Frosty's work, he found red dye covering my service valves, as noted on his attached report, under the heading "recommendations."
But more telling: A green dye as **. *****/*** claims in his response, was never mentioned at all in the service call on July 30th with ***, nor the phone conversation with his then office manager, ***, nor in the returned phone call from ***** *****/***. The dye was always referred to as a red dye -- a red dye that was covering my service valves the next day with evidence shown on a note pad (see attachment) of the inspecting HVAC technician, and also noted on his report. My only regret is not taking a photo of his hands before he asked to rinse them off.
As for a returned phone call from a **** explaining the "1 refrigerant" as claimed by **. ***** -- I have no record of a call received on my voicemail. Perhaps it was left on someone else's voicemail, but not mine.
Regarding **. *****'s assertions that I was told to turn off my A/C at the time of scheduling an appointment, that my compressor was overheating because refrigerant levels were low, etc., etc., please see the initial complaint in answer to **. *****'s flimsy excuses in an attempt to cover up his company's incompetence and ineptitude at HVAC service and repair. Considering his outrageous prices and questionable business practices, it seems more profitable for him to keep following up with bad service.
I find his response outrageous and unacceptable.

Less security key to peace, activist says
Suggest reversing heavy deployment of military and police in restive province
May 30, 2012
There have been 15 shootings so far this year in ongoing civil unrest in Papua, according to an activist priest in the region who is urging the government to abandon its high security approach. Putting an end to the high security approach – increased deployment of police and military force in conflict areas – will pave the way towards peace in the region, said Father Neles Kebadabi Tebay. "So far, the face of Indonesia in Papua is often identified with violence committed by security personnel," Fr. Tebay said during the launch of his new book Angkat Pena Demi Dialog Papua (Raise a Pen for Dialogue in Papua) in Jakarta. Easing the security situation in the region will take political will and commitment from the central government, he said. "Trying to resolve conflicts using high security measures, in fact, increases the the number of human rights violations," he said. Papuans have long called for dialogue in order to deal with problems in a mature, humane, just and dignified way, said Fr Tebay, who is also coordinator of the Papuan Peace Network. Some academics agree the government needs to change its approach. "How could Indonesia, whose constitution recognizes everyone's right to live independently, have a region where people have faced intimidation, torture and killing for more than 40 years?" asked Father Franz Magnis-Suseno, a lecturer at the Jakarta-based Driyarkara School of Philosophy. Thamrin Amal Tomagola, a sociologist from the state-run University of Indonesia, regards the presence of security personnel in Papua as ineffective. "I get the impression that they are lazy and are intentionally not conducting investigations," and directly point the finger at civilians who are accused of being part of the Free Papua Movement, he said.
