The Norwegians had to pass Australia for us to win and that did not happen until just before the finish line,' in a race where boats finished overlapped. The Germans' reaction when they crossed the finish line was identical to that of the Brits when they crossed the finish line in the penultimate race of the 2008 Olympic Sailing Regatta, the Medal Race in the Star class. They raised their hands high and cheered and screamed just as any one achieving an accomplishment of a lifetime.
Who would have expected the French, who had dominated the Sonar regatta, but posted a few mid-fleet scores during the 11-race series, would have ripped their jib on the first run of the final race? Professional skipper, Bruno Jourdren, and his crew, Herve Larhant and Nicolas Vimont-Vicary were disappointed, but not for long.
They won a medal in a hard fought competition. The point separation among the top seven boats in the fleet was the closest of any of the 11 Olympic and three Paralympic Sailing events, and there was no short course, double-point Medal Race as there is in the recently developed, supposedly more media-friendly Olympic format.
The Medal presentations and closing reception were attended by all including spouses, children, parents, personal assistants, coaches, technical delegates, international jury members, IFDS delegates and volunteers. No one would miss it.
These are real sportsmen and women. They know each others' names. They congratulated one another and shared the triumph even if they didn't have a Medal around their necks.
And boy do they know how to enjoy themselves! Being confined to a wheelchair didn't stop John Ruf, the Bronze medalist in the 2.4 Meter from the USA, and his sister from stealing the dance floor for most of the night. Early in the morning, Nicolas Vimont-Vicary folded up his cane and shoved it in his back pocket as he turned his body toward the direction of the music.
'I would like to dance,' said the blind Silver Medalist from the French Sonar team. 'But no one is on the dance floor,' I said. His rhythmic stride quickened and his resolve grew. This Paralympian gave me yet another revelation – with all that he has been through, what does a blind man with a Silver and jade medal hanging from his neck care about what anyone thinks of his dancing?!
My departure from the venue was delayed by countless good-byes and by making arrangements with a friend who runs a number of schools in Qingdao. These sportspeople who are lacking muscle control, limbs, and clean bills of health, thought to ask if they could donate surplus sports bars, sailing gear, sports beverages and bicycles rather than have them go to waste or ship them back to their home countries.
My friend was up in Beijing with his family at the Paralympics. 'This is so cool,' he said. 'My kids are more interested in watching the Paralympics than the Olympics.'
If you ever have the chance to watch Paralympic Archery, Cycling, Equestrian, Wheelchair Rugby, Wheelchair Basketball, Fencing or any of the 20 Paralympic events, you will realize that it is all about ability; not disability.
Here's the conundrum – Why isn't there more money in these sports? Why isn't there more media coverage? Athleticism, close competition, sportsmanship and countless other lessons pour from these heroes and events.
I wish that just one of the accredited sailing journalists from the Olympics could have financially justified remaining in Qingdao to cover the Paralympics. It would have facilitated getting the reams of written material that I and the other Sports Information Specialist produced out to readers all over the world. Sadly none could, or did.
Thank you, Serge Jorgensen, President of ISDF and Luissa Smith, of ISAF, for working to change stringent Olympic and Paralympic protocol and trying to post what remained of these stories once they were censored, edited and abbreviated to comply with event protocol. Most importantly, thank you Richard Gladwell, New Zealand Editor of www.Sail-World.com for all of your Skype messages, e-mails and phone calls trying to get as much information as you could to post to your site and to include in your newsletters.
Sadly, my hard drive crashed during the second to last day of the competition, so it will take a little while to reproduce some of the daily material and write new material. Rest assured, I will do it, because every one of the individuals involved deserves it. As my friend and renowned Paralympic Gold Medal and College Sailing Coach, Mike Pinckney, said over and over in Qingdao, 'This is where it's at! Forget the other stuff. This is where it's at!'
Note: The series was shortened to 10 races because of weather and wind conditions early in the regatta.

Kwaak3 Ports Quake3 to Android
IPhones and Nokia's N900 already have Quake3 versions. What could be more appropriate than a version of the shooter game for Android? The first release is now available to be downloaded.
As so often occurs with open source projects, the Quake3 port to Android was motivated by a developer acquiring new hardware. In this case it was user alias thunderbird2k who got a Motorola Milestone as a gift. He took one look at the Quake3 port for the N900 and quickly set himself upon reworking it for his Android mobile phone.
The result is a ready-made Android app, Kwaak3, available for download from the project page. Prerequisites for the shooter classic are Android as of version 1.6 and a minimum 256 MBytes RAM. The game is optimized for devices with a keyboard, with future work to be done on those without.

Blackest Night #3
Clone Wars #8
Wednesday Comics #11
Well, since my OCD commands me to continue collecting, I ordered some older comics, but I can't tell you what they are until they arrive, I guess. But I'll give you a hint: one title's about a world travelling individual who knows several languages, wears a famous hat, and owns a lot of ancient relics; while the other title is Indiana Jones.
Too late; I already copyrighted these parodies: Rogue Juan, Rogue Won, Rogue Huan, Rogue Wan, Rogue Obi-Wan, Rouge One, Rogue Wand.
Got All Hail Megatron Volume 2 in the mail today.
And, in other news, I decided today to stop collecting IDW Transformers comics, and am considering filing a class action lawsuit to get my $13 and hour back.
That's my jacket!
The other day I picked up:
Justice Society of America #30
Batgirl #2
Batman and Robin #4
But I also bought the mini series of Indiana Jones & TTOD, as well as 16 others of the Marvel IJ series. It was a really great deal; no book for more than $4, as little as $1.60. That's one more complete series to, well, complete, for me now. "Nothing... can stop that... now..."
Too late; I already copyrighted these parodies: Rogue Juan, Rogue Won, Rogue Huan, Rogue Wan, Rogue Obi-Wan, Rouge One, Rogue Wand.
SW Invasion #0
SW Invasion #4
The paperback of GIJoe: Cobra came in the mail today. I've been enjoying the IDW relaunch so far, but this, man, this is one of the best Joe comics I've ever read. It blows away the other two titles, which is tough given that they're Larry Hama re-writing the origins with no restraints and Chuck Dixon writing military action. This paperback ranks right up there with "Panic at the North Pole" or "Silent Interlude," easily. Definitely not a kids' book, but I'd give it my highest possible recommendation to anyone over, say, 13 or so. Anything else that this Christos Gage fellow writes, and isn't set in the impenetrable masses that the DC and Marvel universes have become, I'm going to have to check out.
That's my jacket!

Hi list !
I'm working on an external that detects JazzMutant Lemurs on the
local network. So far everything is good, except I would like to have
it work like the midiout external in Max : one could double-click on
it, and select an output to which the incoming messages would be sent
(in my case, a list of IPs or lemur names would be displayed). Is
that at all possible or do I need access to some private API ?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Axel Balley
The API for editing windows is documented in the SDK.
Anything beyond that (like the funky lists pattr displays or popup
menus) is likely to make use of the API from the host OS. This is
always an option.
Polling IP addresses available on a LAN is almost certainly something
where you'll have to deal with the host API. Or use Java. For Lemur
names I would venture that you'll have to program this yourself.
Good luck,

I have f.lux software installed on my computer so that blue tones are
'turned off' at night on my monitor.
It's been interesting viewing photos of irises with and without the blue
tones displayed.
For example, removing blue tones from the photo of Jazz Band (iris twiki
photos) shifts the ground color from yellow to orange, has little effect
on the fall band intensity of color, although it does shift it more
towards red instead of brown.
Is this kind of cyber 'pigment removal' of any use in identifying
presence/absence of actual pigments?

Natalie and Emma from 'Just X-Cart', official X-Cart partner in Australia, were eager to exhibit there.
To say they were busy is to say nothing. Days and nights of preparations. Leaflets, booth decoration, dozens of calls and hundreds of emails -such a marathon is never easy, but Nat and Em, our heroines, were not going to give up. And I'm so very happy to say that their efforts were crowned with success.
Nat was posting her impressions and updates and thanks into FB and Twitter, and these posts were full of positive mood and interesting observations. I decided to publish it in our blog and I asked Natalie to describe the trip. Her story is below.
"…Just over a week ago (how the time flies), on 20th-21st August, 2013 Just X-Cart Australia attended the Online Retailer expo in Sydney, Australia. The expo brought together in excess of 140 providers from around Australia, and some from overseas, to showcase their products and services.
Naturally eCommerce platforms were one of the largest provider groups, as was Mobile Commerce. Fortunately Just X-Cart Australia had both of these areas, and so much more, covered!
Having made the trek from Brisbane to Sydney by car the day before, including doing the stand setup same day, we were very eager for the expo to get underway – and we weren't disappointed!
Day 1 was off to a great start from the moment the expo doors were opened.
Prospective clients were impressed by the software features, especially X-Cart Gold Plus. Having the option of full mobile commerce integration was a huge hit and of course the automatic connectivity between X-Cart and Facebook made visitors realise how easily social media could be apart of their online solution.
We quickly found a great demonstration format. On the laptop we had our site at www.justxcart.com.au open to show the desktop version of the software running. We had an iPhone with our website open to show how it looked utilising the X-Cart mobile app, and in addition to this a Samsung smartphone showing the Just X-Cart Facebook app happily working away. The combination of these 3 devices, in conjunction with asking each visitor questions about their business, so as to explain features and benefits relevant to them, was very well received and made it much easier for them to see how X-Cart could work for their business.
We also utilised our demo store as needed to demonstrate how numerous features worked including product options, upselling, featured products, wholesale pricing, the streamlined checkout process, etc and showed examples of our custom designed templates at our "X-Cart Shops" Portfolio site.
Just X-Cart truly provide a one-stop-shop approach including domains, hosting, design, software and modules, setup, training, and ongoing support and assistance. Our business model provided reassurance to people that we had their online business needs catered for, and that we certainly aren't about simply selling a piece of software. Instead they could look forward to a long-term business relationship, with an Australian-based company dedicated exclusively to X-Cart and genuinely interested in their success.
In between talking to expo visitors about X-Cart software and our services, we managed to get a few posts up to Facebook thanking our existing clients for dropping by!
By day 2 we started to notice a trend – visitors commented that by the time they reached our stand, they were totally confused and still didn't really understand what they needed or how it all worked when it came to getting online.
Now given we were in the far corner of the exhibition (outside the eCommerce theatre which was ideal, but certainly not near the entrance to the expo) this was quite a surprise.
In us taking time to explain how everything connected together (domains, hosting, software etc), and showing a real interest in each visitors business eg their specific products/services, and then explaining how X-Cart would work for "their" business, as opposed to a generic example, people who felt lost in eCommerce confusion, suddenly could see how it would really work for them.
That was the most rewarding part of the expo – truly assisting visitors to understand the power of eCommerce, and how they can have that power in their hands, for their business, with us by their side as much or as little as they needed.
So as the second and final day drew to a close, though slightly exhausted, Just X-Cart had achieved what it came to do – to introduce the world of X-Cart to dozens if not hundreds of visitors who attended the expo!
We undertook the pull down of our stand and despite weariness, could still manage to make a positive from any negative.
Evidence of this as follows…
We had used a table as part of the setup – now the challenge was getting it to fold down!! Nope, it just wouldn't budge! Instead, we turned it into a cube, cable-tied it together and it made for a great transportation aid down to the carpark for many of our stand components! lol. Then a bit more, errr, passion and persuasion was applied to the table and finally it folded down fully, which is great because there was no other way to fit it in the car!
That night we posted an overview of day 2 to our facebook page and reflected on what a success the expo had been.
Online Retailer 2013 was a fantastic 2-day event for Just X-Cart Australia and confirmed what we had known all along – that there is certainly a demand for a cost-effective, feature-packed, supported eCommerce application like X-Cart . And we are proud to deliver that to eCommerce clients across Australia and the globe!…"

'Perfect' conditions highlight surf event for Newport Harbor
NEWPORT BEACH The waves were perfect, the sun was firing, and the community came out to the sand at 54th Street to support the Newport Harbor High Surf Classic, which raised about $7,500 for the school's surfing team.
The contest drew surfers from elementary school age to masters 40 and older to compete in an event that over 14 years has become a fun way to win bragging rights in Newport Beach.
"We have a great turnout, the waves have been firing," surf coach Matt Burns said. "This combo swell has been perfect; guys are ripping left and right. I was hoping we'd have waves, No. 1, and sun, No. 2. We scored both."
The turnout was better than ever, with about 150 surfers signed up and the sand dotted with supporters Saturday and Sunday. The surf industry stepped up to support, with Volcom helping to put on the contest and add to donations for the raffle, as did other local companies, such as Surfside Sports and Arnette sunglasses.
The money from the raffle and the event help fund the entire year for the 37-member high school team, and is the year's biggest fundraiser, Burns said.
"There are so many people who have a vested interest in this who help us out to support this," Burns said.
It's also a chance for graduated alums, such as Jared Cassidy, to catch up with friends and surf their home break. Cassidy graduated from Newport Harbor in 2010 and came down from San Francisco State University to compete.
"I'm glad we have waves; it's the best surf I've seen for the contest in a long time," said Cassidy, who has been surfing this event since he was 10. "It's a great community deal. We don't really have a lot of events here anymore."
Colin Moran took home the high school division honors.
"(The final) was with all my friends; I see and surf with them every day," said Moran, a senior. "It's more of a fun contest more than anything else. I'm stoked to get bragging rights at my school. It's pretty cool."

In manifestDB.jsm, the function function normalizeOrigin(aURL) {
Returns an incomplete origin. Given the URL 'http://mochi.test:8888/' the origin is resolved as 'mochi.test' where it should include the protocol and port (ie, it should be 'http://mochi.test:8888/'.
While the functionality matches the comments in that function, https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Same_origin_policy_for_JavaScript indicates it probably is wrong.
Note that once this is fixed, head.js in the m-c branch tests will need to be updated accordingly else many tests will fail.
origin may not be the correct name. this is used as the db key to ensure that only one provider per domain is installable.
Just to un-clarify, from IRC:
(10:02:10 AM) markh: I thought [apps] were port proto-host-port, not just host
(10:02:34 AM) michaelhanson: they are - but I need to talk with the security team about that one
(10:02:56 AM) michaelhanson: we had a conversation yesterday about whether http://site.com could perhaps tickle an API for "please turn on social browsing for me" when the provider was registered for https://site.com
(10:03:49 AM) markh: michaelhanson: sorry, "they are" which? :)
(10:03:58 AM) michaelhanson: oh, apps are per origin
(10:04:07 AM) markh: right - so we should be too?
(10:04:19 AM) michaelhanson: subject to the caveat I just posted there, yah
(10:04:34 AM) michaelhanson: I don't want to get into a world where there's a secure- and a non-secure version of the same site installed
So - in theory it should be per-origin rather than per-host, but http vs https is a tricky edge case...
FWIW, bug 756317 tracks the fact that webapps basically does do what we do but should *not* strip the port. So it seems we should end up *without* the protocol but with any specified port.
pushed a fix for host+port origin as the db key
The tests are testing this, even if a little indirectly. There is an explicit test that currentProvider.origin == TEST_PROVIDER_ORIGIN where TEST_PROVIDER_ORIGIN = "http://mochi.test:8888";
Can someone explain how much of nsIURI is being used? I don't have a clear sense from the convo on this bug.
The conversation leads me to a few q's:
1. Since we are using the scheme (http/https) shouldn't only HTTPS be allowed, since only HTTPS is used for providers, and they should be using CSP?
So we might have:
with https being implicit?
As such, there should never be an oppty for a non-secure site being set up, since a manifest should never load from a http-only url, with the cert passing.
2. It looks like the bug above is a patch to here
i am pretty new to using github, but it looks like it's not merged into the main develop branch /modules path
Is there a place you guys are tracking what's merged/not merged and the plan for that? You guys seem to have a good handle on it, but following the app, it's not always straightforward for me to see something as resolved/fixed when the code is in some kind of unmerged branch and/or what this seems to be, an alternate tree. It might just be my misunderstaing of github, so I could prob def benefit from a brief explanation or url reference.

Seam for more complex borders
Right now, for complex combinations of border characteristics we create temporary surfaces and use complex operators for each border corner. This is particular expensive on D2D but also isn't free on other drawing systems. This patch changes us to seam in those complex cases, there's precedent for this, IE9 actually almost always seams even on much simpler border cases. Chrome seams sometimes but not others, I don't know exactly when.
*** Bug 761388 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Part 0: Mark reftest fuzzy on OS X
The previous patch had reftest issues on OS X 10.6 on try. I've reverted the test and now marked it fuzzy.
Should we consider making this change only in some cases rather than in all cases? Perhaps based on either (1) the 'image-rendering' property or a new property like it (2) the width of the border or (3) a combination of the two?
(My sense is that some authors actually do care about getting correct rendering here, but the bulk of the performance problems are not for those authors.)
I'd rather not introduce any Web-facing API here. Eventually I think we can have correct rendering and performance.
A heuristic based on the width might be helpful, but I'm not sure what that should be.
Right now this fallback codepath is also only called in the case of particularly complex borders that don't go through any of our fastpaths. (Unless we go through the 'don't stroke' codepath)
IE9 just seams everywhere. Should we run into web authors having trouble with the seams we could also look at introducing a fastpath for their particular usecase.

Best wire bound sketchbook on the market!
By ebaltrip
from Monroe Michigan
Comments about Bee Paper Aquabee Super Deluxe Sketchbook:
All quick sketches and paintings look great on Aquabee paper. It has been a favorite for years and holds watercolors nicely. The white paper allows the sparkle of the watercolors to shine through. I like the wire bound sketchbooks because they lay flat. The paper is thick enough that it doesn't bleed through unless you are using a super juicy marker or sharpie. The paper has a slight texture on front side and smooth on the back side. Nonstaining watercolors can be lifted out but overworking the paper will cause the paper fibers to lift and ball up (pill). It is not as durable as 100% cotton but its not expect it to be. It is a great paper for pencil and wash or pen and wash techniques.The paper is rated at 93# sketch paper but it actually measures 0.0085 inches (0.21mm) thick. For reference 140# 100% cotton watercolor paper is 0.019 inches (0.48mm) thick, which is twice the thickness of the Aquabee paper. It is, by far, the best wire bound sketchbook on the market!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

i have tried almost all bands marketed but keep coming back to super bee. i love the weight of the paper as it will take light washes. it is a soft natural color and has a slight tooth. perfect for my needs.
Didn't work with my style, but a good value
By Rebecca
from New Hampshire
I was hoping to use this book with light watercolor and ink. Because I rely on the ability to soften and lose edges and enjoy a cold press texture for drybrush work,this paper didn't work for me at all. Giving it to a friend that works in a crisper style.
Merchant response: Thank you for your review. Although this paper is well-sized to withstand wet media, it is still primarily a drawing paper with a vellum texture, and we're sorry if this wasn't what you needed. If you ever have questions about a product you're considering purchasing from us, we hope you'll let us help. Just call 1-800-933-2542 (8am-5:30pm CST M-F) or email info@dickblick, and our Product Specialists will be happy to advise you.

The Very Best
By Jesse the art teacher
from Sacramento Ca
I absolutely love this sketchbook and I have had sooo many that I have not. I push this thing very hard and it has never let me down. I put ink, watercolor, acrylic, tempera and lots of graphite and charcoal all over these pages and I've never even had a bleed through to the back of a page, In fact, I use the backs too because I know they wont come through at all. The color is light, off-white and watecolors show up well, the tooth is medium so you smudge-rubbers wont have the smoothest fades ever but you just can't beat this book my friends. Worth every penny.

Favorite Sketchbook
By Illustrator Kate
from Northern Virginia
This is my favorite sketchbook, hands down. I can use markers, watercolors, and other media with no bleed-through or deterioration of the paper. The 9" square size is perfect for tossing in my purse/tote bag and taking it places. Big enough to fit a variety of work but not unwieldy. The heavy duty rear cover provides solid support as well as protection for the interior pages. I've never had the spiral binding come undone and snag on items as other sketch books have done in the past. The paper is just a smidge off-white so colors render pretty true and vibrant. You will not be disappointed.

It's our 20th anniversary of free fun set to music! Our All-America City kicks off Friday After 5 with Pink Cadillac on the Jagoe Homes patio stage. Nashville's party band plays funk, rock, rhythm & blues soul dance band featuring a smoking rhythm & horn section and tops it off with our powerhouse choreographed female vocalists and rock and soul male lead vocalist that will set downtown to music. Bring your dancing shoes! It's our biggest season ever! Fun. Free. Friends. It's Where the Weekend Begins. 6:30pm-10:00pm.
Tonight: An Owensboro native, Andy Brasher opens our 20th Anniversary season! He moved to Nashville and started writing songs with a mutual friend. Andy brings to the collaboration a love for soul music and southern rock. His first album, The Brasher/Bogue Project (released in 2009), was initially meant to be a vehicle for getting their songs to publishers. The fan bases of both Brasher and Bogue joined forces behind the duo and new fans were gravitating toward the music on this CD. The demand to perform live was there. He's played as part of Kenny Chesney's Going Coastal Tour pre-show parties and toured through Seattle, Denver, Minneapolis, Detroit, Chicago, Green Bay, DC, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh and even Nausau, Bahamas for Kenny Chesney's Winter Beach Jam. More than twenty years ago, Atmos Energy gifted the courtyard to the RiverPark Center. As if that wasn't enough, they came back several years ago, gave this special venue a complete make-over including overhead lights, two flaming, gas-powered torches and new landscaping. This year, they sponsored all of the acoustic artists performing in the Atmos Courtyard all season. Thank you Atmos Energy and all of the entertainers set our summer to music this season at Friday After 5. Tonight's show: 7:00pm-10:00pm
Tonight "Maradeen", an American rock band based out of Nashville, Tennessee. Founded by guitarist, Whit Murray, in the summer of 2014 with keyboardist, Kaitlyn Connor, and bassist, Sterling Miller, the band formed their initial roots as a high energy rock n roll quartet. With classical and jazz improvisation backgrounds they forged and evolved a unique and well-versed sound. In 2015 Tom Galloway moved to Nashville for songwriting and began collaborations with Murray. The band entered the analog studio "Welcome to 1979" in the spring of 2015 and recorded their first full-length LP entitled, "Mirage". The album features the initial hard-hitting rockers from the band's formative stage while revealing the new songwriting dynamic between Murray and Galloway. Don Moore Automotive team is our Party Pier sponsor all season. Fun. Free. Friends. It's Where the Weekend Begins! 8:00pm-11:00pm.
Tonight's theme: "Non-Profit Block Party". All of our community's top non-profit organizations will have booths! TDs Tuff Decisions and the Daviess County Public Library will be presenting live "Storybook Characters" every week at Friday After 5! It's our way of encouraging our youngsters to continue fun reading during the summer. Tonight's special "Storybook Character" is Dora the Explorer and Diego! They will be a big hit for the kids. Be sure to have your 12 or under kid register to win one of two kid's bikes Walmart is giving away tonight. Just register. They pull out two names each week and the kids get to go to Walmart and pick out a bike!
It's a special celebration tonight because you will be the first to experience the brand new Exploration Station Bus at Friday After 5! Foundation for DCPS and community partner, SFG, are sponsoring a Book Drive through Exploration Station tonight. Bring all those books (Pre-school to 18) collecting dust in your house to Exploration Station. We will distribute books throughout the summer to children in need when Exploration Station visits neighborhoods around the community. We're proud to host the Exploration Station World Premiere tonight!
Plus fun in the round with the Welborn's kids' Hula-Hoop contest followed by the Kroger Water Balloon toss at 7:50. Yes, people get wet. Usually it's just the participants. Then we'll "Toast the Sunset" in time for Pink Cadillac's 2nd set. Your feet will appreciate the break but get ready to dance until 10pm. Also tonight, there's the sixteen acre resort quality "Lazy Dayz" park in Smother's Park! You'll find a spray park and trees that you can climb up from the inside! It's part of Owensboro's award-wining riverfront. Your only problem will be trying to get the kids to leave this amusement park atmosphere. The good news? Just like Friday After 5, everything including the spraypark and playground is free! It's all free thanks to Kroger!
Your friends at Cromwell Radio are bringing up and coming talent to the Overlook all season long. Tonight it's the fun party band "The Sensations" playing the hits. You'll find the most promising artists and musicians every Friday on the beautiful Overlook stage this season. Many of the best bands got their start at Friday After 5 over the past 20 years so we're providing a special venue for rising stars in the region. Tune into 100.5 WVJS for live remotes from the venue each Friday! The "New Sound Overlook" is right next to the incredible Smothers Park and world-famous "Lazy Dayz" playground. Bring your kids and your camera phone! 7:00pm-8:30pm

State House of Assembly Speakers from the South-South and South East have urged the federal government to review the ownership structure of oil wells in the country.
Their stance echoes some of the central struggle of Niger Delta Avengers, MEND and others.
Read Also: Muslims attack Catholic Church in Abuja, beat Father.
According to the Speakers, "Legislators of the Houses of Assembly in the South-south and South east can no longer watch helplessly as our region drifts aimlessly.
"Our people walk the razor edge under the strain of impoverishment, environmental degradation, insecurity and uncertainty.
"The federal government should set up adequate machinery that will ensure direct payment of derivative oil funds into the hands of Niger Delta Benefiting communities.
"The people of the Niger Delta region should possess at least 65 per cent of the oil wells contrary to the present ownership structure where less than 10 percent of the oil blocks belong to our people.
"Destruction of oil/gas installations and their impact on the ecosystem and the economy now takes a toll on us.
"The federal government should enter into peaceful dialogue with the critical stakeholders in the South-south and South-east in resolving the dispute and operate within the rule of engagement without incurring collateral damage," the speakers said.
The legislators however urged youths to "Embrace dialogue and diplomacy and channel their grievances through various constituted platforms.
"They should among other things be charged with the responsibility to halt the rise of other offensive militant groups who may from time to time threaten to spring up."
The lawmakers also asked President Buhari to request all security apparatchik to ensure protection of lives and properties.
"They must save the people of the geo-political zones from the hands of the marauding herdsmen.
"They should also establish special task force drawn from the various security agencies and neighborhood watch in each local government to checkmate the excesses of herdsmen and prosecute them."

The legislators stated they would pass bills in their respective states barring grazing of cattle from one location to another through farmlands.
Speakers and Deputy Speakers of Abia, Akwa-Ibom, Anambra, Bayelsa, Rivers, Cross River, Delta, Ebonyi, Edo, Enugu and Imo States were in attendance.

TeachingTraveling.com: This site's mission is to inspire and assist more teachers to travel and more travelers to teach, by featuring "Teacher-Travelers" in ALL senses of the term. Today we have a wonderful example: Kate Reilly, who qualifies as a Teacher-Traveler because she homeschools her kids as they travel around America!
Kate, tell us a bit about your background.
Kate: We're a homeschooling family, so while I'm not qualified for an official "teacher" title, I do teach/guide kids every day. One of the perks of homeschooling is taking the classroom on the road, and we try to do that as often as possible! Over the past ten years, we've been able to do plenty of "roadschooling." Fortunately, as the number of homeschoolers around the country increases, so do the opportunities offered by historical sites and businesses. Williamsburg, Old Salem, and Disney are all places that now offer classes specifically for homeschoolers.
TT: Very cool! I had no idea! Please explain how you "Road-school."
K: My kids are pretty high-energy, so sitting down and plowing through a textbook doesn't usually cut it. So every time we go somewhere, I try to "front load" the kids with info that I think will help them really understand the destination. Whether it's a recap of the American Revolution before we headed to Charleston, pirates of the 1700s before a trip to the Outer Banks, making a model of the Erie Canal prior to a NY adventure, or even the science projects we developed for our Walt Disney World book, all help to enhance the kids' experience once we're there. We've also volunteered at our destinations, like the time we helped bag oyster shells for the oyster bed restoration along the coast.
TT: Awesome! What's the story on your book? How does it help teach kids about their destination?
K: Whether kids are traveling with their parents or teachers, today's kids want to get involved. *Really* involved, not just, "Hey, go pack your own bags." In our Extreme Travel series (currently, Disney World is out, with Washington, DC coming in the spring), we've got more than 30 hands-on ways that kids can learn about their destination, make stuff they can use on their trip, and then unique ways they can capture their memories. Then, when they're on their adventure, they can remember the science behind what they experience, or the historical story behind it. If you're understanding what you're looking at or experiencing, you're going to take a lot more away from it.
TT: Nice! How do you find the money to fund your travels?

'Wordplay': What's an 8-letter word for ...?
Take a look around, ye word lovers, ye logophiles: Boom times are these. The National Spelling Bee is on ESPN. Anagrams enjoy a featured role in "The Da Vinci Code." The English language, boosted by such additions as "godcasting" and "truthiness," is bigger and badder than ever.
The windfall for word lovers continues in "Wordplay," a cheerful inside peek at America's ongoing love affair with the crossword puzzle. The masses may look at it and shrug, but if you're the kind of beautiful freak who uses the word "progenitor" in casual conversation - as does one person quoted in the documentary - it'll make your day.
The progenitor in question is Will Shortz, New York Times puzzle editor and de facto star of "Wordplay." (That's his half-hidden face you see splashed across the billboard art for the movie.)
It was Shortz, a lifelong puzzle fiend who majored in something called enigmatology at Indiana University, who first convened the nation's crossword fanatics in Stamford, Conn., for the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament some 28 years ago. In crossword circles, this makes him something of a puzzle pope.
As it turns out, Shortz has a following among casual players, too.
Scouring the country, husband-wife filmmakers Patrick Creadon (he directs) and Christine O'Malley (she produces) turn up an impressive list of celebrity devotees. Bill Clinton appears to extol the crossword as a metaphor for problem solving. Filmmaker Ken Burns ("The Civil War") talks about how crosswords neatly appeal to the compartmentalized nature of urban living. Similar insights are squeezed from folk singers the Indigo Girls and New York Yankees ace Mike Mussina.
One of Shortz's biggest fans is "Daily Show" host Jon Stewart, who makes no bones about his crossword elitism: "I'll do the USA Today puzzle, but I won't feel good about it."
If at times the crossword culture seems akin to a religion, well, that's not a half-bad analogy. Like a religion, the puzzle has its own set of commandments: Blacked-out spaces should exhibit symmetry, and puzzle constructors must steer clear of words that pertain to bodily functions, such as "enema" and "urine," in deference to the breakfast-table crowd. ("Do you know how many times 'enema' would have saved me?" one such constructor laments.)
And, like a religion, the crossword fosters a sense of gnostic oneness. Just look into the eyes of the people who play them - you'll find reverence, communion and calm. They could just as easily be bowing toward Mecca.
Naturally, the filmmakers find their way to the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament, where we meet the expected rainbow assortment of crossword contenders: A family man from Colorado, a student from New York, a gay puzzle maven from Florida.
The joust that follows isn't exactly the stuff of rapid heartbeats and sweaty palms - it feels a bit more like a "Best in Show"-style "mockumentary" than, say, the superb spelling bee-focused "Spellbound" (2002) - but don't tell that to Shortz and his ilk. To them, it's not just about filling in the blanks.

JPMorgan Investors Sue Over Trading Loss
The hits keep on coming for JPMorgan Chase. Shareholders filed lawsuits yesterday against the bank's executives over the $2 billion trading loss yesterday. JPM was hit with two suits over its bad bet on corporate debt. One suit is filed against CEO Jamie Dimon, CFO Douglas Braunstein and the bank's board members for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment. The second lawsuit alleges securities fraud saying Dimon made "materially false and misleading statements and omissions" during the bank's April 13 earnings call with investors. "Defendants misrepresented the losses and risk of loss to the company ... (full story)

Mahendra from Jaipur, India recommends this hotel Posted: Room Quality: 4/5 Service Quality: 3/5 Dining Quality: 4/5 Cleanliness: 3/5
We got this hotel through friend reference, and booked through internet. One good thing about Travelguru - they reminded us to inform if checkin is delayed beyond 12noon checkin time. Our scheduled arrival was at 10:30pm , so we did inform the hotel. Reaching the hotel from Jaipur railway station was hassle free. After presenting the booking printout, checkin was also smooth. We were charged for extra bed (so they promptly put an extra bed). We had the dinner in their restaurant - Gitanjali. Food was good. I wish the room was a bit more comfortable (even though it was delux AC room) - like floor matress, some slipper in the bathroom, etc. The window view from the Hotel was good - we could have direct view outside. The location of the hotel is conveniant. The complementory breakfast was a bit heavy to stomach(I think because of use model of the cooking oil). The lobby outside the room was having some smell(i.e: not fresh feeling). I would rate our stay in this Hotel as Average. Thank you,

Modelling Inflation in EU Accession Countries: The Case of the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland
Inflation in Central and East European countries varied considerably over the transition phase, and econometric relationships between prices, money, wages and exchange rates are said to have been unstable during this period. In order to shed some light on the issue, this paper analyses some empirical models of the inflation process in the three earliest east European transition economies: the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland. Since the end of the 1980s these economies have experienced high rates of inflation, although significant disinflation measures were introduced during the mid-nineties to enhance these countries' chances of joining the EU, and they succeeded in getting inflation under control without high costs in terms of lost output. Given this, the determinants of inflation need to be empirically analysed not only in order to understand the disinflation measures, but also to assess the possible effects of future pressure on prices. Price stabilisation is an essential complement to the success of transition. Policies to contain inflation are necessary for transition economies to grow and firms to restructure. In the present paper, we first look at inflation within the context of multivariate cointegration, where domestic and foreign price determinants are initially assessed in separate blocks (each single-theory based) in order to obtain a number of long-term attractors. We then formulate consumer and producer inflation equations from more general VEqCMs for each country. The importance of theory-based imbalances (from previous cointegration experiments) in explaining inflation can be assessed at this stage. Our most significant empirical findings seem to substantiate the idea that many, if not all, theoretical determinants of inflation are of importance in those countries in question: the exchange rate and the output gap would appear to be of particular importance in explaining the phenomenon.
