The city hopes to stop the overflow of sewage into Powell's Cove with improvements to sewer infrastructure and the Tallman Island Wastewater Treatment Plant.
The city Department of Environmental Protection updated the College Point Civic Association last month on the progress of the project.
Crews will soon begin work on the Tallman Island Wastewater Treatment Plant before moving on to building the Whitestone Interceptor which when completed will be a new pipe to help a mixture of rainwater and sewage reach the plant without getting backlogged. Some of that water, called combined sewer overflow, currently spills out of a pipe at the edge of Powell's Cove Park.
"Right now it's spilling into the cove," said Colin Johnson, of the DEP, referring to instances when heavy rainfall overwhelms the system and triggers the overflow.
The DEP is about to make improvements to the plant to accommodate the new flow patterns. Those improvements, along with the construction of the extra pipeline beneath the park, are expected to be completed in August, 2014.
Wastewater from Whitestone currently flows westward toward College Point through a pipe beneath 11th Avenue.
At the same time, wastewater from Flushing flows north toward College Point through another pipe called the Flushing interceptor.
At the intersection of the two, a problem arises.
The Flushing pipe can be thought of as a highway with fast flowing traffic, while the Whitestone pipeline is more like a side street.
The wastewater from the Whitestone pipe backs up at the intersection, much like a line of cars would, but instead of sitting in the pipe and building up pressure, the combined sewage and rainwater is jettisoned into the bay.
The new construction project will create a dedicated route, however, for the Whitestone pipe to reach the treatment plant. Instead of flowing into the Flushing route and heading north, the new Whitestone Interceptor will run parallel to the Flushing pipe and take the sewage directly there.
The construction will largely be taking place within Powell's Cove Park, although crews will also have to work on 11th Avenue between 130th and 131st streets.
The agency also detailed new storm sewer projects on the horizon.
Next year, the DEP will spend $25.5 million to construct storm sewers along 9th Avenue along with storm and sanitary sewers on 20th Avenue from 126th Avenue westward to the coast.

AMD Engineering Manager is the New Palm Head of Linux Kernel
Mobile specialist Palm strengthens its team by hiring Matthew Tippett, the Linux graphic driver developer since 2003 at ATI, to be in charge of Linux kernel development.
According to the website Phoronix, the Australian born Tippett will start work at Smartphone manufacturer Palm in California starting in November. At AMD, Tippett was the definitive force behind Linux support and the release of AMD's Catalyst graphic technology. In addition, an updated Catalyst driver was released to go with Ubuntu Karmic Koala.
At Palm, Tippett is to bring out the Linux based Smartphone operating system WebOS. Palm last caused eyebrows to raise with their reaction to criticism on the restriction of their app catalogue. At the end of September, the British mobile phone manufacturer Palm last fleshed out their team in WebOS boot as Ben Galbraith and Dion Almaer from Mozilla changed to Palm. The two brought the internet based Open Web movement with them to Palm which had provided for the initial posting of a web developer network.

Verseo eGlide Permanent Hair Removal Roller Features:
Verseo revolutionizes at-home hair removal once again with the advent of eGlide. The world's first roller electrolysis at-home hair removal system. The home electrolysis roller painlessly eradicates 4"-wide areas of unwanted hair, resulting in permanently smooth, stubble-free skin.
Clinical tests proved this technology permanently removed hair without the pain or scarring associated with needle electrolysis. The roller emits safe electrical energy that reacts with the included conductive gel to destroy the derma papilla--the foundation of hair growth--at the base of the follicle.
The eGlide removes unwanted hair at home safely and painlessly. The Verseo eGlide uses the same technology used by professionals in salons and spas. Using sophisticated galvanic technology, the eGlide transmits special current to the root of the hair and prevents the hair from ever growing back. The Verseo eGlide is a great choice for painless and permanent hair removal. Just glide over problematic hair areas, whether on the body or the face to remove unwanted hair. No need for pads. Repeated treatment cycles will eventually stop hair from growing back all together. Say goodbye to unwanted hair the easy way.
No more inconvenient appointments. No more endless waxing and shaving. Wake up to silky-smooth skin every day and wear what you like, when you like. With the Verseo's eGlide Roller Electrolysis System, it's all about privacy and being hair-free on your own terms, in your own home. You set the schedule and let the eGlide do the rest!
Ideal for larger areas along the arms, underarms, bikini line, and legs, the electrolysis glider is about the size of an electric razor and just as easy to maneuver. The device's facial hair mode consists of three 20-second cycles and the body hair mode consists of two 5-minute cycles. Includes two AAA batteries, tweezers, 3 oz. of conductive gel, and travel case.
Please Note: Verseo eGlide may NOT be shipped to Australia at this time.
INTERNATIONAL USERS: 120V Adaptor included. Please use with your country's appropriate adaptor.

It took about six weeks before I started to see any real results, but once they started coming, boy did they impress. Well worth the time…and the affordable price I paid for my eGlide. One happy customer
Posted by ItsMikeyB! on 23rd Oct 2014
It doesn't seem to work…but that's mainly because I can't use it as often as the instructions say. I did, however, get mine at the recommendation of a friend, and he seems to think his is the next best thing since sliced bread (he HAS shown great results). I'll try to stick with it just to shut him up
Posted by MargaretL004 on 23rd Oct 2014
I got my eGlide as a gift and honestly ended up pushing it to the back of my bathroom closet. But then I kept seeing reviews that spoke highly of it, so I pulled it back out and started using it. 6 weeks in and I am seeing a few results but nothing spectacular. Still, it's easy to use and I think I'll stick with it for a few more weeks to see if the results improve
Posted by SexyAmber4 on 11th Sep 2014
Okay, so the eGlide DOES deliver results…it just takes a while. Like…a LONG while. I used mine to get rid of some unsightly facial hair and after using it for 6 weeks and seeing no results, I got upset. Still, I continued to use it because I had seen others make similar comments about the product. Now, almost four months later, I am seeing some very impressive results…results that have convinced me to stick with it. In other words…if you want that hair gone RIGHT NOW, then this is not the product for you. But if you're looking for clean efficient results and have some time to spare, I'd check out eGlide as soon as you can! It might not be the easiest to use and it doesn't deliver lightning fast results, but it certainly does what it's supposed to!
Posted by Pburg_Franny on 11th Sep 2014
If you're hoping to get rid of hairs on larger areas, you might want to look elsewhere. On the other hand, if you're looking to clean up smaller areas light eyebrows and the upper lip, then you aren't going to find anything better. I use my eGlide for the upper lip area and am impressed with the results. It's tricky to get the hang of it at first but after a few uses, it's a cinch!

Purchased this item over a year ago. Decided to try it on a specific area (face). Diligently worked that patch for 2-3 months, whenever there was new hair growth (since you're supposed to tweeze all the hair after treatment). Then I lost motivation and stopped.
It wasn't until later in the year during normal grooming that I noticed that I was getting maybe 1 hair a month in that area. I worked it again and after about a month, no more hair growth in that area at all.
It takes a long, long time, but keep at it. I think it's just great I never have to worry about having that embarrassing facial hair again!
Posted by Unknown on 13th May 2014
I found that the eGlide was really easy to use, but I didn't see results until maybe 4 months into the treatment. I have gone for laser hair removal before and I can tell you that it is much quicker

I've been using Elecrology Method for facial hair for over 20 years! Should own stock.
Then Electrologist retired with little options in are to continue. Didn't want to chance the NoNo - Too many bad reviews. Then I read this and I can now say after about 3 months I have been able to manage my hair removal much better than I had hoped. This actually seems to be better because I'm not getting pocked in the skin anymore. I'm smooth! The bumps are starting to smoothen out. I use the Leg Setting and I have NO discomfort at all. Like I said, I've had needle pinned in me every week for over 20 years. Wish I had known about this sooner. Thank You (Manual Entry From Previous System. Original Post Date: 08-17-2013)

I've been using this product for over a year and have seen some results. The hair on m ychin is thinner as is my bikini line. Even though I used it very regularly for a whole hair cycle I didn't see as much difference as I would have liked. I don't know if the hair will ever go away but I don't want to give up because it's cheap. (Manual Entry From Previous System. Original Post Date: 05-01-2012)

Not Happy At All With The Product. The Machine, There Was No Power To It, And It Would Have Cost Me More To Send It Back On Postage. So It Has Not Been Used And Everything Is Still In The Box. SO I Would Not Recommend This Product. (Manual Entry From Previous System. Original Post Date: 03-01-2012)

I recently tried the NO NO! Verseo is by leaps and bounds, BETTER! and it is a LOT easier on the pocketbook. The results are great! I am 77 and have fought a mustache and goatee of stiff bristly hairs that I NEVER shaved...they were just coarse hair. I am down to just a few stiff ones now...and I have to admit that I am not as constant as I should be on using my Verseo roller. Just wanted you to know that I fully approve, and will continue to be a customer! (Manual Entry From Previous System. Original Post Date: 01-15-2013)

Finally a product that does what it says it will. I have a drawer full of gadgets and waxes. Every time I saw a product that said it would work to remove facial hair I bought it. Verseo is the least expensive product I have purchased and have gotten the best results. I carefully studied the directions and started on my mission to rid my face of hair. I have only been using this for three weeks ( 5 days / week) and I have already seen remarkable results. There is definely a reduction in hair. I do one section at a time and focus on careful tweezing to remove the hairs. It is very time consuming. The gliding is the least of the time I spend. The tweezing is the time consuming part. I did not like the tweezers that came in the set. I found it too difficult to use. I use my own Tweezerman. I also found that if I roll a section and then roll another section giving the first a chance to do its thing and then went back and did the tweezing, it was easier to remove the hairs. Keeping the tweezer clean while tweezing helps too. I have never had a problem with burns on my fingers as others have said. I just keep my fingers damp. I have only used the face setting on my face. I will never part with my Verseo. I forsee my problem finally being solved. Love it. (Manual Entry From Previous System. Original Post Date: 07-09-2012)

It's slow; takes a long time to get rid of hair - but it works. It's too small a unit for a large area, thought that's what it's intended for, but it's perfect for an area like upper lip, chin (not eyebrows) and other smaller zones. What's great is that, unlike laser which is expensive but better for large areas, you don't have to wait more than 2-3 days to use it again so you never have to live with 'sprouts' that may get noticed. I do find the unit challenging in that maintaining exactly the right amount of contact is difficult. But I broke my unit and am about to order another so maybe it was the one I had..(Manual Entry From Previous System. Original Post Date: 07-04-2011)

I've been using the eGlide since October 2010... This is now my second machine. BOTH machines seem to to sting my fingers for some reason. COnsidering that I've bee using it for about 10 months, I'm not happy. I don't understand how people think they KNOW it works after 2 weeks! You haven't even been through one hair cycle to tell if it is working. You are pulling the hairs out. Of course you don't see the hairs anymore. Considering I've been using it for such a long time and it has thinned slightly to ap oint that if I wasn't aware how thick it used to be, I wouldn't know it was different. Ugg, I don't want to give up because it does have a slight difference and it's cheap compared to other machines.... But I'm definitely not happy with it. (Manual Entry From Previous System.

This product was easy to order. I also received free shipping and the total price from the website was the best price I could find. The item arrived in a little over a weeks time. The product had very good packaging. I have used this device four times now, several times on my face and once on my leg. I have numerous dark, coarse hairs on my face that have caused a lot of trouble for me for over 15 years. They cause pimples, bleeding and bumps. I am hoping that this product works to eliminate these problematic hair follicles. So far my skin is smoother and some hairs have pulled out or fallen off more easily...so all in all it looks promising that this will be a solution for me. Check back with me in several more months and I'll provide a follow-up update.

THE PRODUCT I PURCHASED (E-GLIDE) IS WONDERFUL. IT WORKS!!!! (Manual Entry From Previous System. Original Post Date: 02-10-2011)
Posted by D. Thorne on 12th Nov 2013
I received my Verseo eGlide Hair Removal Roller about two weeks ago. I've used it twice on really annoying hair that I keep getting on and around my chin. I can't believe the difference. I'm not constantly plucking and shaving morning and evening. There are only five very thin hairs remaining after only two uses. That's down from the 40 or so I was used to plucking in the morning and then shaving in the evenings. Yes, I did count the hairs I plucked. They were just that annoying to me. I have had laser hair removal in 2008 at a very reputable, costly professional establishment. I paid over $5,000. I did a year's worth of treatment and it did absolutely nothing. I also ordered the Tria Laser for at home use before the Verseo eGlide. I used it one time, but I quickly remembered what I did not like about laser hair removal...the PAIN. I sent it back and am still awaiting my refund. I do have to say that if you use the face roller mode as instructed, the eGlide keeps cutting off before completing a cycle. So I just use the body roller mode on my face as well. That solved the problem. Just let me add that I do not feel any discomfort whatsoever when using this product. It is totally pain free. I know it's working because your skin feels tingly and after the tratment my face is usually red for about an hour. Of course, that may be because I'm using the body roller mode on my face. It's not anything that would deter me from using the product. I thank God for this product and will continue to use it on my face and try it on other parts of my body as well. Thanks for this lifesaver...that's a bit dramatic, but I just firmly believe that women should not have hair on their chins. I certainly don't want them on mine. (Manual Entry From Previous System.

But a study also points to the many challenges e-retailers will face.
Paul Demery
The web continues to outshine bricks and mortar as the retail channel offering the most growth potential, according to a January survey of 94 retailers by Retail Systems Research LLC. The research and advisory firm found that 63% of multichannel retailers expect the online channel to account for a sharp increase in the share of their total sales by 2015, while fewer than 10% expect web sales to decrease as a percentage of total sales.
"We find the number of retailers committed to stores as a major growth strategy declining and the need to do a good job integrating the customer experience across all channels more and more of an imperative," RSR says in the study, "eCommerce 2012: Back to the Future."
According to the study, the number of retailers earning 10% to 24% of sales through the web will increase to 41% in 2015 from 19% as of last month, while the number earning 25% to 74% of their sales online will climb to 22% from 3%. The number of retailers earning more than 75% of their sales through the web will inch up to 11% from 10%.
The number earning less than 10% of their sales online will decline sharply to 26% from 68%.
When asked to name the biggest business challenges to increasing online sales, 54% of the respondents that RSR defines as "winners" (those whose sales increased by more than 4% in 2010 over 2009) cited keeping up with evolving shopping patterns, including social networks and mobile commerce, getting consumers to engage more with them online, and maintaining growth rates in consecutive years. Others also cited managing an online product assortment, planning for uncertain consumer demand, dealing with the ability of consumers to compare prices through Internet search, and addressing online shopping cart abandonment. RSR did not say how many of the 94 retailers it surveyed achieved the "winner" label.
Respondents RSR defined as winners also named what they considered to be "very valuable" e-commerce opportunities. Following are those opportunities with the percentage of respondents citing them as very valuable:
● Improving online merchandising and assortment, 65%
● Providing richer product details, 61%
● Investing in cross-channel shopping capabilities, 59%
● Improving search and browse capabilities, 43%
● Targeted e-mail campaigns, 43%
● Improving the payment process, 38%
● Embedding more social capabilities in e-commerce site, 19%
● More sophisticated paid search campaigns, 24%
● Branded deal of the day/promotional offers, 14%
● Third-party deal offers (i.e., via Groupon, Living Social), 9%
Brian Kilcourse, managing director at Retail Systems Research, will speak at the Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition 2012 in June in a session entitled "Expense ratios and margins - how you compare."

As Internet matures, the local communty - "Communities of Place" may be as important as the "Virtual Community." Nonprofit organizations serving residents and neighborhoods in a local setting will use Internet to support the communication, transactions, collaboration, education, information sharing that is already taking place.
Nonprofit organizations engaged in delivering a service will find that Internet can increase their effectiveness. Nonprofit organizations involved in advocacy will find the Internet an important new outlet for "publishing" their perspectives on issues. Nonprofit organizations committed to community development will use Internet as an additional community building tool. Nonprofit organizations valuing open participation in their work will use Internet to further the democratic process.
Although there are a number of important venues on Internet to link nonprofit organizations to resources they may use, these sites are not focusing upon the functional uses local nonprofits may develop on Internet to conduct their work. Although national and international nonprofit organizations and associations have begun to create sites, the local nonprofit organization is not well represented.
Most initial efforts by local nonprofits to create World Wide Web pages are the equivalent of an organizational brochure. Only occassionally, organizations have explored more directly functional opportunities. These pages will argue that a fully implemented home page system will mirror the wide range of services, issues and decision processes in the work of an organization.
Local nonprofit organizations can learn from the experiences of Internet pioneers as they develop their own strategy. But local homepages are often buried deeply within comunity sites. Such organizations are rarely listed in Yahoo or other national cataloging systems.
This site will work to address these issues. We are motivated by the need to educate nonprofit organizations in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to the potential of Internet. The pages will focus upon the potential of the World Wide Web as a vehicle, although others have used text based "FreeNet" or "Gopher" environments for the same purpose.
Local Nonprofit Organizations at Work - a detailed discussion of homepage planning options, with nearly 100 links to examples around Internet.
Local Nonprofits - The Best Sites - a growing list of sites that are useful protypes for others. (Please nominate others.)

Major unions are continuing to divest pensions from the Sudan in an effort to pressure the Sudanese government to halt the current campaign of slaughter, rape, starvation and displacement in Darfur.
Calpers, the nation's second-largest public pension fund, is the latest organization to begin unloading investments in the region. The board unanimously decided that none of the fund's $141 billion in assets will be distributed to stock holdings in foreign firms that profit from the oil rich Sudan. Their strategy for divestment will be modeled after that proposed by the University of California, which on March 16 unanimously approved a plan to get rid of both their direct and indirect holdings.

The Bush Administration is making it increasingly difficult for scientists to disseminate their research on global warming. According to the Washington Post:
[Over the last year,] administration officials have chastised [the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration] for speaking on policy questions; removed references to global warming from their reports, news releases and conference Web sites; investigated news leaks; and sometimes urged them to stop speaking to the media altogether. Their accounts indicate that the ideological battle over climate-change research, which first came to light at NASA, is being fought in other federal science agencies as well.

The war against junk food is as quixotic as ever:
The days when children consume two orders of French fries in the school cafeteria and call it lunch may be numbered. A bipartisan group in Congress plans to introduce legislation today that would prohibit the sale in school not only of French fries but also of other fatty or sugary foods, including soft drinks.
Is the junk food lobby really that powerful? Consider the evidence: In June of 2005, Connecticut Governor Jodi Rell vetoed a bill that would've rid Connecticut schools of junk food, despite widespread parental approval. Guess who opposed the measure? Two months earlier, Kentucky had just barely managed to squeak out a bill that banned soda from elementary schoolsanything more stringent would never have passed. Arizona had to make the same compromise in April. Members of Congress who oppose federal regulations on junk food always say that these issues should be matters of "local control." But local legislatures are powerless in the face of our Frito-Lay overlords, evidently.
At any rate, the Times piece helpfully swats down some arguments against nutritional standardsnamely, that they'll cost schools revenue or that kids won't eat healthy food. But it's less clear that nutritional regulations in schools will get anywhere close to the root of the junk-food problemnamely, that large agribusinesses have managed to hijack the entire system of food production in the United States and secure themselves $180 billion worth of government subsidies enabling them create utter crap on the cheap. Against that sort of tide, a few dams in the cafeteria won't do very much.

What can you buy for over $100 million? Quite a bit, actually. The Center for Public Integrity has a new report out revealing that pharmaceutical companies spent $18 million on political contributions between 2001 and 2004, along with $44 million lobby state governments in 2003 and 2004, in order to thwart state attempts to reduce drug prices. And that all pales beside the $83 million the industry spent to defeat a California drug discount proposition in 2005.
33 states have passed at least 66 separate laws pushing down drug prices since 2003, although the Center doesn't quite say how many further laws were scuttled because of lobbying, besides, of course, the California initiative.

Massachusetts looks set to pass legislation to guarantee universal health coveragethe first state to do soand that should count as good news, even if the policy itself might have a few kinks in it. At first glance, the new law will require everyone to carry health insurance or face higher income taxes, provides subsidies for low-income workers (those making under $9,500 a year get free coverage), and levies a very small fine on businesses that don't provide health insurance.
As with most things, the devil's in the details. Matthew Holt has an incisive comment herehow this plan fares will depend on how the state regulates its insurers. If insurance companies are allowed to offer cheap policies to the healthy and unaffordable policies to the unhealthy, then the market will implode; those people forced to buy very expensive policies under the new mandate will simply end up underinsured, with all the risks that entails. Or perhaps insurance companies will be very heavily regulated (Massachusetts already requires community rating, which is good); we'll see. Leif Wellington Haase also notes that funding issues, which have torpedoed many a state universal health care plan, could become an issue.
Ezra Klein says he would've preferred legislation that severed the tie between employers and the insured. That might be ideal, although now we'll see once and for all whether individual mandates, which are often touted as a moderate alternative to single-payer or single-insurer systems, can actually work, and how well. There's something unsettling about watching states "experiment" with various approaches to universal coveragethere are, after all, actual lives at stake herebut seeing as how the U.S. health care system is going to need a radical overhaul once someone who actually cares comes to office, it will be good to have evidence on which systems work and which don't from as many states as possible.

I realize not everyone dashes to the mailbox to see if the latest issue of the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists has arrived yet, but there's a story in this month's magazine that's worth reading. Basically, back in the day, the United States used to export highly-enriched uranium (HEU) to other countries for various civilian purposes, until discovering that the stuff can very easily be used to make nuclear bombs, should some crafty terrorist get it into his or her head to do so. No good. So we switched to exporting low-enriched uranium (LEU) instead, which can be used for the same civilian purposes, but can't be used for nuclear weaponry.
Anyway, so it's pretty much LEU for everyone nowadays, except that four major international producers of medical isotopes, which are used for diagnostic procedures and chemical treatments, still buy about 85 kilograms of HEU a year from the United States to make their isotopes. That poses something of a proliferation threat, especially since medical facilities aren't exactly the most secure of sites. Congress, for its part, has tried to introduce laws to force these companies to switch to LEU, which is much safer, to produce their isotopessomething that is technically feasible.
But. These producers are lazy, and in 2003, they successfully lobbied to loosen that requirement in the energy bill, which Bush signed into law last year. So basically, thanks to business lobbying, the United States continues to send bomb-grade uranium around the worldindeed, as a result of the bill, it will probably increase exports of HEUto unsecured locations. Sweet dreams, everyone.

I'm not sure I understand the point of this "compromise" immigration bill floating through the Senate. In the latest version, all immigrants that have lived here illegally for more than five years could apply for citizenship; anyone that has lived here less than five but more than two years would have to leave and apply for "guest worker" statusor indentured servant status, if you preferand any illegal immigrant that has lived here for less than two years would have to leave, period.
Okay, so why would any of those undocumented immigrants who have lived here less than five years ever show their faces? They wouldn't, and this bill will only push those immigrants even further underground. Meanwhile, how will the Department of Homeland Security, which now handles immigration, know which immigrants have been here how long? After all, these immigrants are all undocumentedthat's the point. Someone who has been living here ten years illegally might have a hard time proving it.
Then there's another concern. As Jean of Body and Soul observes, the last time the United States cracked down on immigration, in 1929, officials "made no distinction between people of Mexican ancestry who were in the USA legally and those who weren't." There was a lot of intimidation and harassment and shipping people off on trains. All this for a policy that almost certainly won't stop illegal immigration. Moreover, the latest Senate "compromise" will only get worse once it gets compromised further, in conference with the draconian House bill. It's probably time to scuttle immigration "reform" altogether and wait for a more sensible Congress to come to power.

The United States of America has undergone three impeachment proceedings. In 1868, President Andrew Johnson was impeached because he removed Secretary of War Edwin Stanton from his position, which was a violation of the Tenure of Office Act. He was not convicted, and Kansas Senator Edmond G. Ross, who cast the vote that saved the president, is profiled in John F. Kennedy's Profiles In Courage. In 1974, President Richard M. Nixon was impeached because of the Watergate break-iin coverup, but he resigned from office before the proceedings could go forth. And in 1998-99, President Bill Clinton was impeached for lying about an affair he had with an intern. Clinton, of course, was not convicted.
In each case, impeachment proceedings were begun because of the perception that the president had violated a law. Patiot Daily points out that Congress may ratify Bush's illegal spying with new FISA legislation so that his actions will be deemed legal and he cannot be impeached for having committed them.
Patriot Daily goes on to say, however, that during the month of March alone, Bush violated enough other laws to make impeachment proceedings possible. The writer of the Patriot Daily piece says that, "to avoid writing a book," it was necessary to omit any violations of law committed before March 1, 2006, violations of humanitarian laws and negligence, and some of the prior laws to which there had not been additional information added.
With these restrictions in mind, here are just a few of the March violations:
Bush signed the spending bill, knowing that violated a Constitutional requirement that the bill must first pass in both chambers.
He violated the material witness law by using it as preventive detention authority who could commit terrorist acts some day but for whom there is no cause for criminal charges.
He violated the Clean Air Act by by loosening emission standards for aging coal-fired power plants. The Clean Air Act makes it clear that only Congress may make such a decision.
In a legal brief written for the U.S. Supreme Court, Bush cited evidence from a debate by two Republican senators. There was no such debate. The evidence was manufactured by the White House.
Bush defined "material support" for terrorists in such a distorted fashion that victims of terrorists wound up being defined as terrorists.
He approved the ports deal, knowing that Dubai's boycott of Israel was illegal under U.S. law.
He failed to hand over delinquent mining company safety violation fees to the Department of the Treasury, as required by law. (He also decreased major fines, and did not collect any in half of the caes.)
He violated the law when he secured the UAE ports deal without the required national security review.
Bush's nuclear deal with India violates U.S. and international nuclear nonproliferation laws.
Patriot Daily lists many more violations committed by the Bush adminiistration, as well as relevant links.

This argument hasn't come up in awhile, but way back in the day, Iraq war-supporters used to argue that it was the invasion and ouster of Saddam Hussein that convinced Libya's Muammar Qaddafi to give up his own burgeoning nuclear program. Way back in 2004, I discussed some evidence that this wasn't the case: the relevant policy towards Libya had been put in motion long, long ago, and it took a lot of old-fashioned diplomacy by this administrationso much so that the people negotiating had to sideline John Bolton from the talksto get Libya to give up the bomb.
Anyway, Arms and Influence links to a new analysis by Dafna Hochmann which says much the same thing: the invasion of Iraq had at most a marginal effect on Libya's decision. Robert Farley also has some good comments on the paper.

Jill at Feministe points out that Texaswhich has, over the years, slashed funding for family planning and teaches abstinencehas the highest teen birthrate in the country, along with a very high rate of unintended pregnancies. According to the Houston Chronicle, 1.5 million women are "without help in avoiding unplanned pregnancies," and that was before the latest round of funding cuts and clinic closings.
Meanwhile, Bitch | Lab has a response very much worth reading, noting that a lack of family planning resources may lead to unintended pregnancies across the board, but it isn't the only factor leading to high teen pregnancy rates: "It's not always lack of information. It's lack of desire to want to avoid pregnancy. And it's sometimes about a desire to want to get pregnant." Among other things, she notes that teen pregnancy is culture specificLatina teen mothers in particular are much less likely to say that their pregnancy was "unintended" than white and African-American teen mothers, according to various studies. I don't really have a larger point here, I just thought both posts were interesting.

Ever since I was hooked on Ripcord, a third-rate 1960s kids TV programme about two sky-diving detectives that always ended with them landing on the baddies, I've wanted to feel the buzz of freefall. All that was holding me back was an inability to square the circle of hurtling earthwards at terminal velocity with the terror that my parachute wouldn't open. But then I discovered I could do it indoors.
Tucked away in the corner of a giant adventure mall in Milton Keynes, Airkix doesn't look that promising. A desk and a briefing room and that's about it. But once the instructor, Kurmet, kits me out with helmet, overalls, goggles and earplugs, I am ready to go.
I fall forward into the glass tube and try to arch my torso, with my arms forward and my legs bent as a massively powerful suction fan pulls me upwards. Briefly. Then I realise I'm heading for the iron grille on the floor. The noise is deafening, the rush of air exhilarating and I can't make head nor tail of Kurmet's hand signals; I should have paid more attention in the briefing. Eventually, I work out he's telling me to relax. I'm literally bouncing off the walls, and if it weren't for the fact that I'm somehow suspended in the air, I'd be bouncing off the ground too. A minute of this and Kurmet steers me to the exit.
Before my next go, Kurmet gives me a stern lecture on relaxation. Something must have sunk in, because although I'm still careering into the walls I am definitely flying; for the best part of two minutes I am unnaturally hanging in space, having the time of my life.
Then Kurmet grabs me, the noise gets louder as the suction is increased and we are flying - well Kurmet is, I'm merely his aeronautic prop - 30ft up to the top of the chamber in a succession of tight spins, and then back down to the bottom. We repeat this several times and I've lost all sense of up and down by the time I'm pushed through the exit once more.
I've finished my session, but Kurmet pops back into the chamber to fly around upside down with his head pointing towards the ground, before doing a back-flip out the door. He'll get the hang of it sooner or later.

For the record, I don't have experience with aftermarket cables aside from using the HD650 cable on my HD600, which has made no noticeable difference for me so far (just got it a few days ago).
I doubt that everyone who has made the 'snake oil' argument has zero experience with recabling.
I think the reason why a lot of us feel very skeptical about the potential improvements of recabling is because of exactly the kind of language you've used here. You claim that recabling never makes more than a 5% difference (which a lot of the people here would probably never be able to notice) and yet you claim that you HATE the HD600 with Canare cables. No offense man, you've obviously contributed a whole lot to this community over the years, but I can't take you seriously because of how often you use such extreme language. You apparently hate the HD600 when a Canare cable changes it just 5%. You hate the DJ100 when unamped even though everyone else says amping doesn't effect it. You think the HD580 is way better than the HD600 even though everyone else says they sound virtually identical (probably the only difference being very small manufacturing variances which exist even within the exact same headphone model). I just don't know man.... either your ears are way more sensitive than anyone else's or you're using way too extreme of language to explain what are actually very miniscule differences that most people would never notice or base their headphone judgements on.
This 5% figure isn't based on any scientific evidence. Putting the differences into a percentage is kind of stupid on my part, but it's better than saying it will totally transform a headphone. I don't want to get people's hopes up that a recable will majorly improve a headphone. It doesn't. Sometimes it actually makes it worse. I don't even like the Q701 as much with some DIY (cheap) cables. All along I always suggested to listen with your own ears by making your own cable for $10. If they don't hear a difference, then don't bother in the future.
Right now I don't care about my cables much. I use Mogami and whatever else I have around. For people with thousands of dollars worth of gear, $40 for some nice cables is no big deal.
I could have worded my comment about hating the Sennheisers with Canare a little better. I'm not a super huge fan of the HD-600, but do like it. Using it with Canare would not put it any further into my like category and sounds worse than stock in some areas. I won't try to explain why. You've never had a headphone where you felt you would have kept it if it was improved in one area just a little bit? The HD-600 is like that for me. It's good, but due to preferences I prefer the HD-650 now. I don't actually hate the HD-600. Sometimes my comments make it seem like I do. I just have other sound signature preferences.
Nobody has to take me seriously. I can't explain why I hear the things I do or what causes it. Every day I'm trying to figure out why things sound the way they do and sometime I'll be able to know why. This whole sound thing with headphones and cables is sometimes a big mystery to me. All cables should technically sound the same. So, why can't my 598 sound exactly like stock with Canare? Explain that. I told myself for a week I was just hearing things, but then it just sat in the closest until I switched to some other wire. I sure do wish the comment about "copper is copper" was really true. My HD-598 is using Mogami, which might be as close to the stock signature as you can get. That was my goal. I don't recable to change a headphones sound signature.
I actually would hope people just ignore what I say and try making their own cables or hear things with their own ears. Even if there is ZERO difference, what's so bad about that? Knowing how to solder is a good skill to have and I learned how just to recable my headphones! I don't bother making speaker cables because I can't tell an ounce of difference. Don't know why.
Here's some more "extreme" language for you. I'll let you figure out why. I only like the DJ100 unamped from a Clip+ using M50 pads. When using stock pads the bass is too bloated. Does someone want to guess why? I don't hate the DJ100 unamped, but prefer using it with a good amp. Desktop is best. Sure the DJ100 sounds good enough from some portable players.
All the differences I mention are usually very minor. Some of them so minor that most people might not care about. I do and I guess i'm a little too picky about getting my headphones to sound perfect.
Also..about the HD-580. Some say the HD-600 has better matched drivers. The key here is the grills! This changes the sound more than you'd think! Yes, the difference could be zero difference to some, but I think it's enough to make me prefer the HD-580 over the HD-600. It's actually less of a difference than switching from the K702 to the Q701. Neither is better overall, just that I prefer the HD-580. It's a VERY slightly more aggressive sounding HD-600, but it has less bass and a tiny bit more forward upper mids. I'm not going to do any scientific test to prove this, but even the graphs show a bit of difference.
BTW I do feel that some MIGHT just be repeating the snake oil comment based on what others have said without trying it for themselves. No big deal. Again, I won't be buying any fancy cables. I did a few times, but I kept using stock cables. For a headphone I might be using for 10 years, $200 for a slight improvement is no big deal. Actually, I think $200 is a bit overkill for me. I figure 75% of that is in labor markups!
If someone wants to do me a favor, they can tell me why my HD-600 gets so much louder out of my amp when using Double Helix headphone cables and interconnects. I could get such loud volumes it would rupture my eardrum. I experienced this with portable devices too. When using regular old cables the volume isn't as high. This is just so bizarre. I'll measure it for you if you want I think i'll need to become an electrical engineer to explain everything I'm hearing. It seems nobody ever points out stuff like this. I know the difference has to be more than 1db.
Why is high capacitance wire warmer sounding and low capacitance wire thinner and brighter? This I would love to know. Don't tell me it's all in my head. This is always the biggest difference for me. No major changes in it's sound signature. How would this show up on graphs anyway? The HD-600 and DT-880 often measured the same (in old graphs) and couldn't sound any more different.
Why also do people prefer silver with the HD-650?
Another thing I'd love to sometime figure out is why the differences between cables is less noticeable with different gear? With my Total Airhead and portable players it's amazing how similar they sound. I remember when I didn't have my HRT MSII DAC I couldn't tell an ounce of difference between K702 cables. ZERO. If I was using only a portable amp and Ipod with my HD-600 I'd never buy any fancy cable. I do have a HD-600 Double Helix cable Zombie_X made me and felt it was worth it, but on the HD-650 it makes everything a bit clearer and thinner. Otherwise the same. I know why, but won't go there. I prefer stock for it's extra warmth, but have been switching to the DHC for gaming lately.

The program focused on NSF research activities on selected environmental and social problems and opportunities for future technological development to help solve major national problems.

Myocardial autophagy is constitutively active in degrading organelles and proteins to ensure homeostasis. Stress-induced upregulation of autophagic signaling enhances cardiac myocyte survival by facilitating nutrient supply and removing damaged organelles and proteins, but is paradoxically implicated in increasing infarct size with ischemia-reperfusion injury. Impairment of constitutive autophagy is central to the pathogenesis of Danon disease, characterized by development of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and fulminant heart failure in young adults, leading to early death. It is caused by loss-of-function mutations in lysosome associated membrane protein (LAMP2), two isoforms of which are postulated to play a critical role in autophagosome-lysosome fusion in macroautophagy (2B) and chaperone mediated autophagy (2A), ensuring adequate flux through the autophagic pathway. The specific mechanisms for development of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Danon disease are not known. We have observed a rapid decline in LAMP2 abundance in the myocardium in response to ischemia-reperfusion injury, in vivo and in cardiomyocytes subjected to hypoxia-reoxygenation, in vitro. We posit that impairment in autophagic flux in the absence of LAMP2 causes autophagosome accumulation which triggers programmed cell death. In this proposal, we will test the hypothesis that LAMP2-mediated autophagic flux is a critical determinant of cardiac myocyte viability in the unstressed heart and in response to ischemia-reperfusion injury under 3 specific aims (SA). SA1 will determine the consequences of loss of LAMP2, in vitro with siRNA mediated knockdown and in vivo with gene ablation, on cardiac myocyte survival in the unstressed state and with induction of autophagy;and on cardiac myocyte hypertrophy. SA2 will determine the effects of restoration of cardiac myocyte LAMP2A and LAMP2B levels using conditional transgenic expression, on cell death and infarct size in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. SA3 will determine the mechanism of increased cell death and myocardial hypertrophy observed with loss of LAMP2, focusing upon activation of signaling pathways provoking programmed cell death and cardiac myocyte hypertrophy. Assessment of macro-autophagic flux using a novel dual fluorescence tagged LC3 construct will be employed to quantify autophagosome and autophagolysosome abundance, as a measure of dynamic flux through the macroautophagic pathway. Chaperone mediated autophagy will be assessed with traditional radiolabelled substrate breakdown, to determine its role in LAMP2A signaling in the heart. Strategies to facilitate autophagic flux, such as restoration of LAMP2A and B levels in lysosomes, could treat Danon disease and enable pro-survival outcomes with stress-induced activation of autophagic signaling, translating into muscle salvage in myocardial infarction and prevention of heart failure, a key mission of the NIH. These studies will also provide the conceptual framework and the tools to interrogate a novel paradigm for cell death.

Six months to Live at the Meadowlark
In its awkward early phase, it was hard to tell if Six Months to Live (due at the Meadowlark on Saturday, November 14) was an Eric Clapton parody or the real thing. The bizarre publicity photos (see above) that made the band look like the star students of a multi-level marketing/real-estate seminar didn't help, either. Once this four-piece finally cohered, though, you would have been hard-pressed to find a more engaging band writing more well-crafted pop songs in and around Denver. Not really following musical trends, local or otherwise, paid off for these guys in a catalogue of great songs found on their debut album, This Is What Happens. At turns Beatles-esque and funky in a way that emphasizes expressive musicianship over gaudy technique, the album is also regrettably the band's swan song, as is this final show celebrating its release.

The history of New York state can be found in its neighborhoods and the rich heritage surrounding New York small businesses.
The buildings that small businesses preserve are treasures throughout the state, and the continued need for affordable housing is something that every community can identify with. But with every need comes a challenge, and the current path being taken by New York state government all but ensures that the history of the state will be erased and affordable housing will be extremely hard to find.
New York City Offers a Case Study
New York City's attempts to use gentrification to improve conditions have only proven to displace the poor and destroy neighborhoods that have been around for generations.
The Trend Continues All Over New York State
We will show you how to stop developers from knocking down historic landmarks in your community, and we can assist in dealing with low-income housing issues.
Until we all stand together against this sort of trend, we are all at risk of losing neighborhoods that have survived for generations to the interests of big business.
We offer these resources to help you better understand the issues at hand:

I had originally created the page "Mohan Babu" for Mohan Babu K the technocrat, not the actor. The page has since been used to promote the Actor, which is fine. However, the following link should continue to appear on the page. Why remove the reference?

Filmography of Mohanlal[edit]
Filmography of Mohanlal is deleted what to do?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Naveenpf (talk • contribs) 04:25, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
There's a problem in the Malayalee article. The points of contention are the following:
- Dayaanjali doesn't want the article to mention that marumakkathayam (matrilineality/matrifocality) were practiced by the Nairs. i.e., as a community, Nairs were known to be matrifocal/matrilineal, and a martial class.
- Dayaanjali insists the the words "Malayali" comes from the Malayalam words Malai and Aali. Historically, the region has been known as Malayalam before the genesis of the Malayalam language. Hence, the words probably originated from old Tamil. He also seems to think that Malayalam originated independently of Tamil, whereas (facts aside) all linguists state that Malayalam split off from Tamil about 800 AD or 900 AD.
Since you are active in Kerala-related articles, I request you to take a look at this matter. Dayaanjali seems unwilling to discuss changes in the talk page. Initially we had a discussion. I provided references to support my points. After this, he has refused to discuss the points, claiming that my edits are "unverified". The discussion is here. --vi5in[talk] 06:40, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
- Hi I firmly believe that Malayalam developed independently having more influence from Tamil. Having said that, the language has similarities with other languages in south india. It has loaned words from sanskrit and many foriegn languages. Its grammatic styles are similar to Tamil. Script is more similar to Tulu Script. Even then You cannot call it new language. The people of malabar cost was using languague which was different from Tamil even during Sangam period, though part of same kingdoms as that of present day Tamil Nadu. The people are different, the culture is different, the script is different. The words Mala and ali are there in many languages in south india and foreign languages like Sinhala, Thai etc. Its not known where the words come any paryicular language. And about customs of Nair cast, its not specific to nairs. More than that this is not the article that you can list out all the customs and tradition of aparticular community. You have a separate article where you can add details.

Wikimedia Stories Project[edit]
My name is Victor Grigas, and I'm a storyteller at the Wikimedia foundation. We're telling stories of Wikipedia users, editors, donors, programmers and staff to paint a picture of who uses Wikipedia - for the 2011 fundraiser.
I am in the process of planning a trip to India to gather stories from Indian Wikipedians in face-to-face interviews (possibly on video).
My primary goal is to conduct 15-20 interviews, and hopefully enough of my interviews will make compelling stories that will effectively solicit donations from the public. These stories may also be used for other communication purposes by the foundation.
I found your userpage on a list of prolific Wikipedians and thought I'd reach out to you. Prolific editing is always a good story to tell!
If you are interested in participating, please contact me via my email:
Thank you for your time!

WikiProject India Tag & Assess 2012 Contest[edit]
Hello friends, we are a number of editors from WikiProject India have got together to assess the many thousands of articles under the stewardship of the project, and we'd love to have you, a fellow member, join us. These articles require assessment, that is, the addition of a WikiProject template to the talk page of an article, assessing it for quality and importance and adding a few extra parameters to it.
As of March 11, 2012, 07:00 UTC, WikiProject India has 95,998 articles under its stewardship. Of these 13,980 articles are completely unassessed (both for class and importance) and another 42,415 articles are unassessed for importance only. Accordingly, a Tag & Assess 2012 drive-cum-contest has begun from March 01, 2012 to last till May 31, 2012.
If you are new to assessment, you can learn the minimum about how to evaluate from Part One of the Assessment Guide. Part Two of the Guide will help you learn to employ the full functionality of the talk page template, should you choose to do so.
You can sign up on the Tag & Assess page. There are a number of awards to be given in recognition of your efforts. Come & join us to take part in this exciting new venture. You'll learn more about India in this way.

Disambiguation link notification for April 4[edit]
Hi. When you recently edited Kottarakkara, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Syrian Church (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
