At the big end is the African elephant, which is the subject of a new book that dares to join the few who depart from mainstream opinion on elephant preservation and suggest that some should be killed for their ivory. By bringing the elephants and the gnatcatcher together you get a good idea of where American creature conservation efforts are going these days.
The blue-gray gnatcatcher - Polioptila californica californica - has become the symbol of the Clinton administration's effort to save threatened species and serve economic interests at the same time. The doctrine is known as 'sustainable use' of resources.
One of America's great resources is land where people want to live - especially balmy California. Rather than ban development through the gnatcatcher's entire habitat, which the US Endangered Species Act would require were it classified as 'endangered', the idea is to allow bird and developer to live side by side. Not surprisingly, the conservationists and developers cannot agree on the size of the plots for each, but California is an enormous state and a hint of compromise is in the air.
Not so at the elephant end of the debate. In a book called At the Hand of Man: Peril and Hope for African Wildlife, Raymond Bonner, who used to write for the New Yorker and has spent the past four years in Africa, proposes lifting the American-led international ban on ivory trading to allow sustainable use of the African elephant, which means hunting it again for its ivory. He is being pounced on by conservationists with all the fury they can muster.
But Bonner is a fighter, a veteran of confrontations with US foreign policy in Central America and the Philippines. He comes from the wash-it-out-and-hang-it-up school of American journalism, and he has unearthed some things embarrassing to the conservation groups.
When it comes to raising money for endangered species, elephants come out top. They make people dip deeper than dolphins or pandas and are quite as alluring as whales. During the 'Don't Buy Ivory' campaign in the late Eighties the US- based African Wildlife Foundation bought a full-page ad in the New York Times for dollars 40,000. 'Today in Africa someone will slaughter an elephant for a bracelet,' said the advertisement, over a picture of an elephant carcass. It is rare for such ads to pay for themselves, but 1,200 people responded to this one and the foundation received dollars 42,526.
The campaign helped lead to the 1989 ban on ivory trading. The ivory hunters found they could not sell their tusks, at least on the open market. In what seemed like a total success story, poaching fell off dramatically and the elephant herds started to grow again in the most affected country - Kenya.
However, Bonner's evidence indicates that the conservation groups were driven into the ban against the better judgement of some important expert opinion, which questioned the basic assumption: that the African elephant was an endangered species. He also suggests that advertising agencies prodded the groups into running exaggerated ads. This caused the public to become so alarmed about the possible extinction of the African elephant that pressure for a ban became too great for any conservation group to oppose without risking its membership roll. They all approved it.
In place of the ban, Bonner advocates using a country's resources in a way that does not wipe them out. One of Africa's great resources is its wildlife: it can make money showing off beasts to tourists, and it can kill them. 'Killing crocodiles for their skins, impala for their meat and lions for hunting trophies,' says Bonner, 'is a more directly profitable sustainable utilisation of resources; so is killing elephants for their ivory.'
If Africans were allowed to kill 1-2 per cent of the elephant population, he suggests, it could generate substantial revenues to help relieve human suffering in the continent. Also, allowing rural Africans to make money from elephants would give them an incentive to protect the species from poachers.
The conservationists are in a state of high dudgeon about Bonner. They say the sustainable use doctrine requires levels of management available only in southern Africa; it is not yet practical in central Africa where half the elephants live and where much of the ivory has been coming from. In California, however, sustainable use is clearly possible for the gnatcatcher.
Once the two sides have agreed on the land required to be set aside for the gnatcatcher, the hope is that not only the bird but also associated plants and animals will be protected before they become threatened and the subject of legal battles. Such a compromise is no mean task: the gnatcatcher makes its home in about 250,000 acres of valuable real estate.
If the multiple protection scheme works in California, where two-thirds of the 2,350 American species that are candidates for an endangered listing live, then it may be applied to the Midwest prairie ecosystem and maybe, one day, to the African elephant. But 'sustainable use' is a hifalutin phrase for a hifalutin objective, and the one thing the gnatcatcher and the elephant stories tell us is that the conservationists, for all their fancy visions, are open to the same temptations as developers and ivory hunters. It is called greed.

Lament for a First Nation: The Williams Treaties of Southern Ontario (Law and Society)By: Peggy J. Blair (author)Paperback
1 - 2 weeks availability
DescriptionIn a 1994 decision known as Howard, the Supreme Court of Canada held that the Aboriginal signatories to the 1923 Williams Treaties had knowingly given up not only their title to off-reserve lands but also their treaty rights to hunt and fish for food. No other First Nations in Canada have ever been found to have willingly surrendered similar rights. Blair argues that the Canadian courts caused a serious injustice by applying erroneous cultural assumptions in their interpretation of the evidence. In particular, they confused provincial government policy, which has historically favoured public over special rights, with the understanding of the parties at the time.

Despite City's two-point lead at the top of the Premier League, Kolo Touré thinks the title race between the two Manchester clubs is too close to call.
Both sides go into tomorrow's fixtures after defeats in the Europa League. However, while Sir Alex Ferguson could talk of resting Rio Ferdinand for United's home game against West Bromwich Albion, Roberto Mancini will probably require every fit and available defender at Swansea.
Vincent Kompany and Pablo Zabaleta are definitely out for City while Joleon Lescott is a doubt. That will put a significant load on Touré's shoulders as the season enters its decisive phase.
"It will be tough now because of all the experience and quality Manchester United have," said Touré. "To be honest, it's 50:50. We need to be careful, but it's going to be a great end to the season. The best scenario for us would be to win all our games and then have a 'final' against Manchester United to win it; but the season is a long one and there are no small teams."
Swansea have lost as many games at the Liberty Stadium as Manchester United have at Old Trafford – two – and Mancini's side will be flying directly to Wales from Portugal after their 1-0 defeat by Sporting Lisbon on Thursday, where their performance seemed dulled by tiredness.
Perhaps it was a night when City missed the marauding presence of Touré's brother, Yaya, who has been the club's most effective outfield player in the second part of the season.
Seven years ago, Newcastle, having suffered a far heavier defeat by Sporting at the Jose Alvalade, stayed on in Portugal, flew straight to Wales and were humiliated by Manchester United in an FA Cup semi-final staged at the Millennium Stadium. City would hope for better.
"The Swansea game is going to be like a final for us," Kolo Touré said. "Every game we play between now and the end of the season is going to be massive. We will give our all against Swansea."
With Mancini suddenly short of defenders and competing on two fronts, Touré is a central figure on the pitch a year after he was given a six-month ban for taking an unauthorised substance – his wife's slimming pills.
"That is why I am here," he said. "We have a big squad and every time the manager needs a player to come in and give of his best, we have to do it. I will give everything, as I have always done. I am more hungry than ever after the difficult time I have had and I just want to play well for the team. I am here to pass on my experience. The team needs experience and quality and now is the time to show it."
* Swansea will be without the winger Nathan Dyer tomorrow, as he begins a three-match ban following his red card in last weekend's win at Wigan. Wayne Routledge will start on the right for Brendan Rodgers' side.

text: Special Needs Resources Sports Fun for Kids with Special Needs Spotlight on several southeast Michigan groups that give special children an active outlet, positive social experiences – and much more « Previous Next » Rebecca Thomas • January 9, 2015 Read Comments (4) Tweet Children with special needs want to participate in the same sports activities as any kids their age. Whether that's ballet or baseball, though, these youth often have challenges that can prevent them from fully participating in traditional groups and leagues. Fortunately, several organizations in southeast Michigan have created special, fun programs just for them. Special Olympics Michigan Perhaps the most recognized name in special-needs athletics, these programs are open to youth with intellectual disabilities beginning at age 8. Programs are offered in Livingston, Macomb, Oakland, Wayne and Macomb counties (find a southeast Michigan "area" near you). Sports include alpine skiing, basketball, bowling golf, gymnastics and volleyball, to name a sampling. Training and competitions are both options, and athletes and families are never charged. The newer Young Athletes Program also offers sports play for kids ages 2-7. It introduces them to the basics, like walking, running, balance, jumping, kicking, catching and throwing. Pride of Trilogy in Sterling Heights Kids have found an outlet with smaller programs, too. Michaela Messing of Macomb Township has cerebral palsy. But she wanted to dance just like all the other girls in her class. "Someone in our therapy program told us about the Pride of Trilogy just as it was starting up," says her mom, Kristen Messing. "It ended up being a great fit for her." The Pride of Trilogy is a dance and cheerleading team for special needs kids and teens in Shelby Township. Michaela uses one forearm crutch and has braces on both legs. But in her class, she's dancing, tumbling and doing stunts, mom reports. This free program is based at the Cheerleading Training Center of Michigan. Owner and coach Angela Trombley-Goralski donates her time to the team. Members range in age from 7 to 21 and various disabilities like Down syndrome, autism and cerebral palsy; one is blind. They all take part in routines, doing whatever they can. Some in wheelchairs can do forward rolls or spins. Athletes perform and participate in four competitions during the season. "It's like an hour of physical therapy for her," Messing says. "She doesn't think of it as therapy, though, because she's having so much fun. It does a lot for her confidence and self-esteem." Sterling Heights programs Sterling Heights resident Michelle Hielscher's 6-year-old son Matthew has a form of muscular dystrophy. But he was eager to join a sports program. The family found a match through the City of Sterling Heights' offerings. "I wanted him to be around kids like himself and feel normal," Hielscher says – especially since Matthew has a 6-year-old twin sister without special needs who participates in dance. He's done a summer day camp and "sports night," a weekly program focusing on one sport each week. The city is considered a local leader in offering special needs recreation programs, which date to the early 1980s (it's been recognized nationally, too). Its options include sports, social events, outings and camps for kids with special needs – no matter where they live, thanks to funding from the federal Community Development Block Grant. Diane Winterstein, the city's special recreation supervisor, says participants come from Lake Orion, Taylor, the Grosse Pointes and Detroit; they have learning disabilities, high functioning autism, seizure disorders, emotional impairments, Down syndrome, to name a few. Other special-needs programs include cooking, dance, wheelchair basketball, dining out and pizza-and-movie nights. Other areas – and benefits Other communities offer programs, too. Oakland County Parks and Recreation Department, for instance, adapts its regular programs for special needs children. Over in Southfield, the Miracle League of Michigan (pictured above) gives high-functioning players a crack at baseball. In Macomb County, Clinton Township offers adaptive bike and softball programs for ages 12-plus. There's also a summer day-camp program for kids registered in special education in school, capped at 15 kids. These programs have fees but are open to those from all areas. "We make sure everyone has the opportunity to recreate," says Linda Walter, director of the city's Parks and Rec. "We try to do that by making everything accessible to everyone." Winterstein says besides giving an opportunity to compete, athletic programs for special-needs kids instill a sense of self-confidence that they carry with them. And that often leads to new relationships with their able-bodied peers, she adds. "Special needs children want to compete and participate as part of team. This is a program that offers that for these kids." says Winterstein. "It provides them with an outlet they will not get in any other venue." This post was originally published in 2010.

We had lunch here on a short stop on a Med-cruise. Excellent service and superb choice of wine to accompany the excellent food.
It was the first time I took a steak tartare. The one made by vinoneo was really tasty 😋. The environment and the decorations are lovely. I saw a lot of local French people also come to this place with friend,or by couples. Very nice food and service. I recommend it
Went there for lunch in Spring, had the daily special simple setup in the heart of the town but not too crowded. Price is reasonable.
Perfect atmosphere and good-looking dishes.
There weren't empty seats in 30 minutes after they opened.
What a lovely place!
Excellent, original and extremely fragrant dinner at this lovely restaurant on a charming square with a superb view of the Vieux Port. Everything was perfect and deliciously surprising - the gorgeous chilli ice cream accompanying the salmon tartare being the highlight of the night. Super friendly staff. Recommended without hesitation.
Just a hop and a skip away from the craziness of the port, the restaurant is set in a lovely location. The staff are very quiet, polite and unassuming. They just let you take in the atmosphere.
The food was truly authentic and tasted wonderful, and the waiter had an excellent knowledge of wine which complimented our meal to a...
After a series of gastronomical disasters in Nice, we were craving some really good French food and this was our first port of call - it did not disappoint. Set away from the hustle and bustle of the Vieux Port (but close by), this restaurant is an absolute hidden gem. My husband and I enjoyed mains of salmon tartare and...

Not all the "Texas Boys" are swimming well. Dax Hill was again disappointing. He wasn't expected to be super-special in the 100 but he should have made semis.
I hope he can get to 48.85 tonight ! he has that in that tank …i am sure of that !

Despite significant turmoil in the Bitcoin markets this week, the recently sworn-in chair of the Federal Reserve, Janet Yellen, told Congress it was not the place of the U.S. central banking system to regulate the online cryptocurrency.
"To the best of my knowledge there's no intersection at all in any way between Bitcoin and banks that the Federal Reserve has the ability to supervise and regulate," Yellen said. "So the Federal Reserve simply does not have authority to supervise or regulate Bitcoin in any way."
This comes following a turbulent week in which many U.S. politicians and prosecutors voiced an interest in bringing a regulatory hammer down on Bitcoin exchanges like Mt. Gox.
The Tokyo-based Mt. Gox, which used to be the world's leading Bitcoin exchange, simply vanished earlier this week. For weeks prior, the exchange had halted all withdrawals for fear that hackers had breached their security measures to steal Bitcoin. The firm officially filed for bankruptcy in Japan on Friday, admitting that it had lost 750,000 of its investors bitcoins and 100,000 of its own. At current trading prices, that total amounts to roughly $480 million. That's roughly 7 percent of the global Bitcoin economy.
This massive virtual banking breakdown has lead some U.S. politicians, like Sen. Joe Machin, D-W.Va., to call on the government to issue a total ban on Bitcoin and other digital currencies. Machin criticized Bitcoin as a "highly unstable and disruptive" economic force.
"I urge the regulators to work together, act quickly, and prohibit this dangerous currency from harming hard-working Americans," Machin said in a written statement.
Meanwhile, a Manhattan District Attorney's office has reportedly subpoenaed Mt. Gox and other Bitcoin businesses and exchanges. CNET said they are investigating the denial-of-service attacks that forced Mt. Gox to suspend withdrawals, precipitating the current crisis.
For those who've lost substantial amounts of money in the Mt. Gox bankruptcy, it may be frustrating to find no help from the government. After all, the government, through the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, has long been in the habit of insuring America's private accounts to safeguard against just these types of banking calamities. But Bitcoin enthusiast have long trumpeted the virtue of a currency that is beyond the reach of government regulators.
It seems Yellen agrees, telling Senate Banking Committee that Bitcoin was simply outside the jurisdiction of the Federal Reserve.
"The Fed doesn't have authority with respect to Bitcoin," Yellen said. "But certainly it would be appropriate for Congress to ask questions about what the right legal structure would be for digital currencies."
"It's not so easy to regulate Bitcoin because there's no central issuer or network operator," she continued. "This is a decentralized global [entity] … we're looking at this."
In the past, the U.S. relationship with Bitcoin has been lukewarm but permissible. Though countries like Russia and Iceland have banned the currency from use, the U.S. has always allowed it. However, some users and entities have encountered trouble for running afoul of U.S. money laundering laws by mishandling the currency. That's what happened last year when the Department of Homeland Security seized an American bank account belonging to Mt. Gox.

Apple Announces New Mac Consumer Financing Deal "As Low As US$19.99 Per Month"
Apple Announces New Mac Consumer Financing Deal "As Low As US$19.99 Per Month"
by , 12:40 PM EDT, August 10th, 2000
Apple has announced a new financing deal for the Apple Store with the banking behemoth MBNA. The new financing makes it possible for customers at the Apple Store to buy an iMac for as low as US$19.99 per month. This monthly payment level, something that many consumers consider more important than the actual total price paid, is aimed squarely at the segment of the population (in the States) that is largely just now getting wired. Apple says that they are working to roll the financing options to "select dealers" as well. According to Apple:
Apple® and MBNA today introduced instant financing that allows qualified customers to make monthly payments on Apple products, including the entirely new line of desktops recently debuted at Macworld New York.
Through the programwhich enables monthly payments as low as $19.99 for the new $799 Indigo iMaccustomers can apply for financing and receive immediate notification at the point of purchase. The program is available now through Apple's online Apple Store(www.apple.com) in the United States, and is currently being rolled out to Apple authorized resellers.
Loans up to $25,000 are available to qualified customers with a choice of four payment terms: 24, 36, 48 and 60 months. Customers will be able to reaccess their account without reapplying for a loan, enabling future purchases of Apple products with ease.
Apple's new product line includes the revolutionary new Power Mac G4 Cube, an all-new iMac family in stunning new colors (Indigo, Ruby, Sage, Graphite and Snow), dual-processor Power Mac G4s, a new family of displays, and the new optical Apple Pro Mouse and Apple Pro Keyboard, which come standard with all Apple desktops.
MBNA Corporation, a bank holding company and parent of MBNA America Bank, N.A., a national bank, has $76.3 billion in managed loans. MBNA, the largest independent credit card lender in the world, also provides retail deposit, consumer loan and insurance products. MBNA.com (www.MBNA.com) provides credit card, consumer loan, retail deposit and shopping services.
You find more information on the loan program at The Apple Store by starting an order. As of this writing, we did not find any direct links to the program on the Apple Store's home page.
The Mac Observer Spin:Consumerism is a good thing for Apple, whether or not the planet can sustain it. That, however, is a topic for another time. Being able to push the new Indigo iMacs for US$19.99 per month should be an excellent marketing tool for Apple. When Apple announced iMac financing at US$29.99 per month in 1999, it was met with great fanfare. The reality is that many people had difficulty qualifying for the financing at that time. It can be hoped that Apple's new deal with MBNA will help with this.
In any event, this announcement should positively impact Apple.

Despite the occasional, brief moment of class – the African-flavoured guitar intro to "Pull Me Back to Earth", the liquid ambience of "Helpless" – Friendly Fires' follow-up to their Mercury-nominated debut is a huge disappointment.
The Klaxons-style "new rave" approach has been developed in several ways, some worse than others: "Live Those Days Tonight" is nimble guitar funk in the lineage of Talking Heads and Franz Ferdinand, but later on there's a vein of blue-eyed yuppie techno-soul ranging from the almost acceptable Hall & Oates soundalike "Hurting" to the utterly hateful Level 42 clavinet and slap-bass Sta-Prest funk of "True Love", as wrong a turning as any young, upcoming band has taken in the past decade.

Difficulty level Suitable for most Duration Approx. 4 hours £ 113 Music is an essential part of Capoeira tradition. Combining singing with percussion, Capoeira music provides energy and rhythm to the game. Tales are told through songs sung in Portuguese, which convey Brasilian history and the history of Capoeira. Shortly speaking, Capoeira is a unique African-Brazilian martial art, a blend of sport, martial arts skills, dance, folklore, music, theatre and philosophy. All those elements are connected by the rhythms of percussion instruments such as the atabake and berimbau. Considering that everyone is able to learn this art, and express it in a unique manner, we start our experience at the Angola Capoeira Association, either at Pelourinho historical center or at the Santo Antonio do Carmo Fort. We'll meet the Master that will tell us more about the tradition. He will give us 1 hour lesson, showing all the physical and mental benefits that this art promotes.

The Marketing Power of Pokemon Go and Other New, Unsaturated Marketing Channels
Because, let's be honest, if there were no barriers to entry and it didn't take something special, everyone would do it! Due to problem-solution fit and product-market fit differentiation, getting started often proves to be the biggest challenge with this strategy. Amazon dominates the internet with over 244 million users in 2016. So what? Who cares about some mobile game?
Is Twitter for Everybody?
grow - Practical Marketing Solutions
Selling differentiated personal services. There's obviously some self-imposed barrier that I can't or just don't want to cross. This is an excerpt from my new book, The Tao of Twitter now available from Amazon and other book sellers. Is Twitter for everybody? Here's an example. One of my customers is a brilliant management consultant. Small marketing budget. Tech-savvy.
Dropshipping 101: What It Is and How It Can Make You a Successful Online Retailer
But that means rather than finding efficiencies in the system, you'll need to get very clever to take on Amazon, big box stores and other dropshipping ecommerce stores. Poor logistics management can lead to a subpar customer experience, due to improper tracking numbers, incorrect addresses and shipping delays. 2) The low barrier to entry. This sounds like a positive, and it is.

Cathy & Pam,
I can relate, but I also use my computer to create and to share. When I
give someone a plant I like to print out a sheet of info for them.Botanica
is good for that. MOBOT, too. I do a lot of display materials, plant tags,
etc for our MG plant sales. It's great to be able to pull the info off a
CD. Armitage & Dirr, of course, provide wonderful photography. CDs alone
wouldn't work, but in conjunction with books and for different projects,
they're very handy.

This was a seedling that grew vigorously and bloomed freely, so I took some
rhizomes and planted them inside the bank channels of the Leon river. It's
usually a dry river, but when it floods it can get about 1/8 mile across
carrying whole trees and tons of debris. Water gaps are a pain! So these
have been under 10-20 feet of flood waters more than once. The soil is
probably river silt held in place by roots. There is a limestone
outcropping well above where they are plante and another one at the floor of
the stream bed, but I doubt there is much leaching where these are growing.
Their health astounds me. I plant them and forget them. These are on such
a steep slope that I fell once trying to take the photos. Fortunately, the
camera was unhurt and I just smashed a finger and skinned my arm. It's
curious to me how well they've done. This is the third year for this
seedling, the grandmother iris have been in place about seven years now and
are forming colonies.
Just for fun.

Whistler Hidden Gem
If you're looking for a unique breakfast experience you need look no farther than Elements Restaurant hidden away in the Summit Lodge Hotel! You've never had French Toast like this! The bread is soaked in a sumptuous egg mixture and baked to crispy perfection - I think it's about 4 inches thick! It's also stuffed with banana and pecans with syrup on the side - a truly mouthwatering experience that I would highly recommend and well worth the calories! If that's not your style, the Eggs Benedict is equally delicious. While the place is small and may require a short wait, hang in there, as I guarantee you won't be disappointed! For evening fare they switch to Tapas which looked tempting when we checked out the menu and we plan to try it on our next weekend escape to Whistler!

text: The great German composer and musician J.S. Bach once stated, "The aim and final end of all music should be the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul." With a passion for music, years of musical training and practice, and the love of their Saviour, this is what the Ophoven family endeavors to do. Their heart's desire is to use the gifts the Lord has given them to minister to others and bring honour to Christ. Hailing from the northwoods of Minnesota, Jerry, Molli, Kate, John, Aaron, and Elizabeth play acoustic instruments and use their voices to blend a variety of music in a bluegrass style, drawing on influences from hymns and gospel music, traditional bluegrass, Celtic, contemporary bluegrass, and their own compositions. With tight vocal harmonies and hard-driving instrumentals, they exhibit joy, energy, and passion. Their musical journey began on a wooden piano bench where each sibling started piano lessons at age five. String instruments were accumulated in the following years, and, in 2008, they began making music as a family regularly as the Lord opened doors. They currently play throughout the Midwest and Canada at festivals, churches, concert halls, weddings, private gatherings, and community events.

This is a summary. To read the whole story subscribe to BostonGlobe.com
Jon Lester went up against Max Scherzer, who was one win away from 20, and outpitched him Tuesday night.
Lester, 13-8 with a 3.88 ERA, was Boston's Opening Day starter, but from May 20-June 16 he pitched like Jon Ordinary. Now he's the dude again, holding the potent Tigers lineup, which included Miguel Cabrera for the first time in four games, to one run on eight hits in seven innings, striking out nine with no walks in Boston's 2-1 win.
Lester struck out the side in the third, retired the side in order in the fourth, and if Will Middlebrooks hadn't committed an error in the fifth, he may have had another 1-2-3 inning. Lester loaded the bases, but got Cabrera on a forceout.

'Let us not forget that there are many Sarajevos,' Mrs Ogata said after visiting the Bosnian capital. 'All over the former Yugoslavia, there are untold thousands of others who have been trapped for months in their villages and who are in dire need of food and medicine.'
About 1.75 million refugees are inside the six republics that comprised Yugoslavia, and more than 400,000 are in other countries. According to figures supplied by national governments, 200,000 are in Germany, 100,000 in Hungary, 30,000 in Sweden, 20,000 in Austria, 13,000 in Switzerland, 4,000 in the Netherlands, 2,000 each in Italy and Norway, 1,300 in Britain, 1,000 in Denmark, and 40,000 elsewhere.
Inside the former Yugoslavia, the UNHCR believes there are 593,000 refugees in Bosnia, 577,500 in Croatia, 373,500 in Serbia, 69,000 in UN Protected Areas in Croatia, 63,000 in Slovenia, 48,500 in Montenegro and 28,000 in Macedonia. About two- thirds of all these refugees have been displaced from Bosnia, and about one-third from Croatia.
The crisis assumed dramatic proportions at the start of last week when the Croatian government declared that it was 'on the verge of social and economic collapse' and said it could accept no more refugees from Bosnia. Instead, they would be shunted to the Hungarian and Slovenian borders. However, Hungary is at bursting point and has, at times, had to turn people back. Slovenia says it will take refugees only if a third country, such as Germany, Austria or Italy, agrees to accommodate them.
Austria and Italy have not yet agreed to that, and Germany is already under immense strain.
The ceasefire agreed at last week's talks in London between the leaders of Bosnia's Serbian, Croatian and Muslim Slav communities calls for the safe return of all refugees to their homes. In practice, this will prove impossible for many thousands of people. Their houses have been razed to the ground or blasted to pieces.
Some areas previously inhabited by one ethnic group have been resettled by another nationality - in many cases, by people who were themselves refugees.

In a time when album rock took over the radio airwaves, the Doobie Brothers were a mainstream rock group that were still more of a singles band. I haven't checked, but I'd bet a stack of Franklins that The Best Of The Doobie Brothers is still far and away their best selling album (and that record didn't even include most of the Michael McDonald hits). But being a singles band obscured the fact that in their prime, they had lots of great album cuts with little filler.
What Doobie Bros. aficionados would call "prime" depends on their preference of Tom Johnston or the aforementioned McDonald, but it sure seemed they were a constant hit factory from "Jesus Is Just Alright" up through "Takin' It To The Streets." 1973's The Captain & Me is their best release from that prime era, as solid of a MOR rock album as there ever was.
As tempting as it is to gush all over The Captain & Me, it's the only slightly weaker follow-up from the following year that deserves a rare spotlight. What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits is one of those records I became very familiar with growing up and still sounds great more than 32 years later.
This record encapsulates all that many people liked about the pre-McDonald Doobies: an accessible mixture of boogie rock, country, soul, jazz and R&B. Vices is filled with tight, top-notch musicianship and strong, varied songs contributed primarily by either Johnston or fellow guitarist/vocalist Patrick Simmons.
For those not familiar this record, the first question might be, what hits did it spin off? The record label had intended for Johnston's soulful, melancholy "Another Park, Another Sunday" to be it, but deejays around America soon flipped the single over and played Simmons' swampy backwoods ditty "Black Water" instead, becoming the Brothers' unlikely first ever chart topper. Maybe it's because the charm of "Black Water" had long worn off on me due to saturation, but I favor "Sunday" and think it remains one of Johnston's strongest compositions ever. His Stax-style "Eyes Of Silver" with its Memphis Horns was another crack at the pop charts, but fell short. A shame, because it contains some of the DB's distinct ensemble rhythm guitar playing and some fine vocal harmonies.
But among the single-less tracks are some real gems. "You Can't Stop It" boasts a real funky shuffle and bass player. Tiran Porter, a criminally underrated bassist, propels the rhythm in perfect sync with the band's two percussionists, Keith Knudsen and John Hartman. It's followed by another Simmons-penned nugget, the mellow, soulful "Tell Me What You Want (And I'll Give You What You Need)". That's soon-to-be-full-member Skunk Baxter providing the pedal steel on the final chorus. Patrick Simmons' full set of stellar tunes is completed by his vaguely progressive, "Daughters of the Sea", and it shows off a depth in his songwriting not often seen in later years.
The Johnston partisans like this version of the band because they could rock more convincingly, and WWOVANH doesn't disappoint with TJ numbers like "Road Angel" and "Down In The Track." His "Pursuit on 53rd St." picks up where "China Grove" left off. Johnston's "Spirit," which has a melody that sounds like a close cousin of "Eyes Of Silver," shows off the band's bluegrass side without losing any of its soul.
So no, this album won't ever be put alongside the widely acknowledged rock classics of that time like Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon, Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, or Steely Dan's Aja. It's just a consistently good-to-great, entertaining album by a successful mainstream rock band hitting its stride. If that's the kind of forgotten treasure you're looking for, you'd want to know about What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits. There's gold between them there hits.Powered by Sidelines

Aimed at empowering citizens, the district police authorities have decided to phase out the hard words and phrases in Urdu and Persian while registering first information report (FIR) and daily diary report (DDR).
Superintendent of police (SP) Shashank Anand, who initiated the project, told Hindustan Times that the step was aimed at making the language simpler that a common man can understand.
The SP said that munshi or reader at a police station is in the habit of using words like muddai (complainant), muddala (accused), missal (file), aala-e-qatal (murder weapon), daryaft (plea), hasab jabta (as per law), tarmeem (amendment) and ishtgassa (petition) in FIRs or DDRs, which make little sense to the complainant.
The field staff have now been directed to use Hindi or commonly used words while registering criminal complaints.
"Progress reports will be taken from all police stations to ensure the simplification of police complaints. It is a very important issue as people would feel empowered if they could understand each and every word in their complaints," said the SP.
Even some judicial officers have been urging the police to use Hindi words and phrases, but the munshis or readers are yet to make amends.
"In fact, the young readers tend to follow their senior colleagues while registering FIRs. The practice needs to be changed," said the SP.
Early this year, the then director of the State Crime Record Bureau (SCRB) Laik Ram Dabas had started holding special training sessions for the policemen, wherein they were taught the Hindi substitutes of the Urdu and Persian words the police use.

Having the SuSE Linux Desktop run on the same code base as the enterprise server allows ISVs to support both the server and the client on the same code base. "This also allows perfect integration between the desktop and the enterprise serverthus offering a corporate solution all the way from the desktop to the mainframe. We will also probably move the retail Office Desktop product to the same code base going forward," he said. Some hardware vendors agree. Martin Fink, vice president of Linux at Hewlett-Packard Co., said the SuSE Linux Desktop on HP desktops and workstations marks the next stage in the evolution of the Linux operating system. "Users now get the price/performance advantage of Linux on one flexible and efficient platform to run enterprise-level applications on their desktops and one vendorHPto support them along the way," he said.SuSE Linux will operate in a SmartClient architecture on about 800 PCs at more than 20 locations in Germany. The PCs will be administered from company headquarters in Stuttgart, which will save costs and reduce the administration workload. The new system is currently being utilized by about 60 pilot users. Another 500 workstations will be migrated between September and November at the headquarters, while workstations at the branch offices will follow in 2004. "We explicitly decided against Windows and for SuSE Linux on our PC workstations, because we believe that this gives us a clear advantage. By choosing SuSE Linux, we can exploit an enormous cost savings and benefit from a substantial efficiency gain," Manfred Schmidt, CEO of Stuttgarter Lebensversicherung, said in a statement. "The pilot project was extremely successful. We are confident that the full launch will prove successful, meeting our economic expectations." The new SuSE Linux Desktop is not to be confused with SuSE Linux Office Desktop, released earlier this year and which is a retail product designed for single personal computers and small to medium-sized businesses. SuSE Linux Office Desktop is based on the SuSE Linux Professional code and not on the Enterprise Server 8 code as SuSE Linux Desktop is. Asked about the competitive threat from Linux vendors like Red Hat Inc., Dyroff said the company never looks at its competition before introducing new products to the market. It sold its first Linux distribution in 1993 and remains the oldest existing Linux company in the market. "We introduced our enterprise product in 2000, several years before our competitors, and the delivery of our corporate desktop product this month is probably months, if not years, before our competitors," he said.
With its focus on simple central administration, SuSE Linux Desktop is optimized for deployment in large-scale enterprises, public administrations and companies with multiple locations, Dyroff said, citing German life insurance company Stuttgarter Lebensversicherung, which will replace its OS/2-based client infrastructure with Linux.
