Member since May 2008.
After 30 years of researching methods to change myself/this reality I found desteni. I was involved in parapsychology, psychedelic drugs, occultism, Zen, Advaita Vedante, Anthroposophy, Christianity, New Age, Reiki, light work, spirituality...
The Desteni tools prove their effectiveness everyday, the Desteni solutions are common sense.
We are destroying life on planet earth in an increasing rate, Yet we live today like we lived yesterday and the day before. What does that tell us about ourselves? That we don't care for life on Earth, we only care for ourselves. And even for ourselves we don't care really, we just care for OUR IMAGE. goddammit
sports exists mainly as competition. Anything playful that's enjoyed by humans gets turned into a competition and then the playfulness is gone. How stupid is that. Competition will bring out the best in people, it is said. Well it brings out all kind a things like a real nastiness in trying to win, abuse of substances. Secrecy in developing new techniques. And money! Lots of it, depending on the type of sports. As a result the joy of a sport is only existing as the joy of winning. May the best man win, well of course the best man wins, because he's the best. But if one is the best he's a coward if he competes with lesser sportsmen. To become a winner they have to do harsh training, sometimes they have to leave their family to stay in some sort of sports education facility. anytime there can come a inspector to take samples for substance abuse investigation. The sportsman must report where exactly he stays every hour of the day so the inspector can come to see him unexpectedly. The sportsmen will do a media training on how to deal with being interviewed. And he will be a celebrity, earning millions. When he hurts himself, it will be written about and talked about. So based on his DNA and his upbringing and education this person has now become something, he has followers and they like his image, his signature and he can start a business in sports ware for instance or he can sell himself for advertising. A personality cult.
In the Equal Money System, professional sports will disappear and the joy of playing sports will return. Enjoying the physical action, enjoying each other's skills and sharing techniques. Competition as how sports are being organized currently will stop. Playing together will bring forth a lot of new sport expressions by freely exploring the physical and sharing the findings openly.
we, the ones with money, we are all lucky to have money. Our lives are dependent on it. So we adhere to the monetary system to keep it going because we want to keep on benefitting from it. In the mean time billions of others are suffering from the monetary system, having too little or no money to live a normal life. We aren't able to stand up for them by questioning the monetary system because we have compromised ourselves by our accepted and allowed dependency. We can do all kinds of charity for them, but we cannot question the very system that's the cause of their suffering. We feel we would undermine our own existence.

It isn't that I don't love lasagne - during my brief stint as a vegan (I was young and in love and had yet to discover the pleasures of local eggs, cheese, and proteins) I figured out how to make a version of the dish that even non-vegans could enjoy (though I'm still not convinced that soy bechamel actually tastes good).
My reason for not missing lasagne is quite simple, actually. I didn't grow up eating it. In my parents' home, comfort food was stuffed cabbage, potato pancakes, meat-and-tomato-and-biscuit casseroles - the perfect melding of Jewish diaspora staples and 1970s Family Circle dining. Lasagne was something I ate at other people's homes. I didn't like the ricotta included in most American-Italian recipes (it was too sweet and grainy) and the tomato sauce was usually bland and - tomatoey.
Until I was a teenager, I hated tomato sauce.
I'm baffled by this now. How could anyone dislike the savory and bright flavors of tomato? How could anyone ask for pasta with butter when cauldrons of tomato sauce bubbled in a back kitchen?
I think part of the reason I hated tomato sauce was the trap my mother set when she made hers. It was full of onions. More than any other food, onions were my enemy. Raw or cooked, they represented a threat to my eating enjoyment. The only way onions could be made palatable - something I discovered only as a teenager - was if they were cooked within inches of their oniony lives. Caramelized to the point of mush. If, after cooking, the onion maintained any kind of structure, it was pushed to the side of my plate. The way my mother made tomato sauce, I'd end up with a small pile of onions on my plate at the conclusion of the meal. I had it in my head that tomato sauce was an enemy, concealing nemesis onion from me just enough to trick me into biting into some.
Tomato sauced ceased to be an enemy when I (finally) discovered a recipe that contained exactly zero onions. It was a simple recipe that to this day my sister and I use as our 'house' tomato sauce when fresh tomatoes are unavailable: In 1/2 C olive oil, saute 1 head garlic. When cooked but not browned, add 1 T parsley flakes, 1 t basil, 1 t salt, 1 T sugar, 2 cans of San Marzano tomato puree. 2 cans of water, black pepper or red pepper to taste. Cook until reduced by half. Enjoy.
And just like that, tomato sauce became my friend.
This month's Daring Baker challenge had nothing, in fact, do do with tomato sauce. The challenge's goal was to teach everyone how to make fresh pasta dough - and learn a delicious ragu recipe in the process.
I'm pretty fluent in pasta dough. One of my favorite recipes is one I learned from Chef David Kinch of Manresa back when I worked for him at Sent Sovi. It was my duty to make pasta dough for the restaurant. The restaurant I used was one the chef learned while working at a Michelin-starred Italian restaurant in Germany. It was fragrant and herbal and came out perfectly every time.
But I did not have a gluten-free version I liked. I don't eat corn or use potato starch in my cooking so most of the recipes I researched wouldn't work. The recipe offered in the challenge was corn and potato-based. It wouldn't work for me. So I started experimenting, which I documented here.
I ended up with a recipe that not only made beautiful pasta sheets, but it became a lovely ravioli, and, I imagine, a devious fresh pasta. It needs to be cooked before it is used - I found that when used raw, the pasta became mushy and lacked bite.
The ragu recipe in the challenge also wasn't going to work for me. I don't eat red meat (though I do cook it for clients when they ask). So I adapted the recipe for chicken thighs (not trimmed of fat at all) and omitted the milk and added butter. For smokiness I added smoked paprika. It was possibly one of the best chicken-based sauces I've ever eaten. Mom loved it too.
The bechamel was the worst part of the recipe for me, mostly because I decided to do something REALLY dumb - I used rice flour instead of an all-starch mixture. The benefit of rice flour is that it is VERY stable. The downside is that it takes FOREVER to cook - unless it is fully gelatinized, rice has an unpleasant grainy mouthfeel (why I don't use it in most baked goods...). So do yourself a favor. Use your favorite starch in your bechamel recipe. Don't do what I did unless you have at least 30 minutes to cook it.
I ended up putting the recipe together twice - once with my unsuccessful, uncooked pasta dough and once with my successful pasta dough. The first one tasted great when fresh from the oven, but was a mess when reheated the next day. It looks pretty jolly, though (I baked it in a loaf pan to conserve the sauces for another attempt the next day):
The successful pasta dough worked much better. The dough kept its bite and held up well on the second day. If I could have done anything different, it would have been to not have made the unsuccessful lasagne at all.
Here's how the successful lasagne looked:
From above:
The lasagne, in the terrine.
Cake and Commerce's Gluten-Free, beef and pork-free adaptation of Lasagne of Emilia-Romagna
Serves 6-8 people, depending on appetite
Lasagne Assembly:
- 1 cup fresh grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 1 recipe pasta dough, sheeted and cooked (see below)
- 1 recipe Ragout/Ragu (see below)
- 1 recipe Bechamel (see below)
Preheat oven to 350 F
Oil or line with parchment (depending on how much you like scrubbing pans) a casserole (glass/metal/ceramic). Spread bechamel all over the bottom. Place several slightly-overlapping COOKED sheets of dough on the bechamel. Spread bechamel, followed by ragout/ragu over the sheets of pasta. Place dollops of bechamel on the ragout, and sprinkle with cheese. Cover with pasta sheets. Repeat spreading of ragout/bechamel/cheese until most of the ingredients are used up. To finish the lasagne, spread remaining sauce and heavily garnish with cheese. Bake at 350 F until bubbly and heated through. Allow to cool at least 10 minutes before serving. Lasagne may be a bit slidy-rustic looking when you serve it immediately. But it will taste delicious.
Will make enough to feed a small army. Or your friends and family.
The Pasta Procedure: Combine all the dry ingredients in a food processor. Process until flours look green and sandy about 2 minutes. Add in wet ingredients and process until dough starts coming together. Place dough in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle. On low speed, mix the dough until it starts to come together. Turn off mixer and finish kneading with hands. Allow dough to sit for an hour in refrigerator. At this point the dough can sit overnight. When you are ready to roll it out, pull off a small piece and work it with a rolling pin on a well-(tapioca) floured surface. It should roll out quite thin - if you put your hand under it, you can see the outline of your hand if you hold it up to a light source. You can also roll it out in a pasta maker if you prefer. At this point the pasta can be used in any application you like. Ravioli, pasta, tortellini - it is a little more fragile than wheat flour pasta, but it will hold up nicely to filling and cooking. If you are making lasangne, cook for about 2 minutes in boiling salted water and remove from the water with a slotted spoon, a fine mesh strainer, or any handy device you may have. If you are going to let it sit, oil it with a little olive oil and place on plastic wrap or parchment, covered, until you are ready to use it. The Chicken and Mushroom Ragout (no beef, no pork, no milk)
In the bowl of a food processor, chop up carrot, celery, and onion. Once coarse, throw in garlic. Heat 2T butter or olive oil in large heavy-bottomed stock pot. When hot, add carrot, celery, onion, garlic mixture and sprinkle the paprika over it. Allow to cook until translucent and fragrant.
Separately, saute the mushrooms until cooked and slightly browned. Add a bit of water (a tablespoon or two) to deglaze the pan. Put aside until chicken has been cooked (below).
Pushing vegetables to the side, add in ground chicken and a little more oil or butter and allow to brown - it is okay if the bottom browns a bit, but you should scrape it down with a wooden spoon to prevent actual burning. You don't want burned fond (the name for the wonderful caramelized proteins at the bottom of the pan. Thank you maillard reaction).
Once the chicken has browned, add in the mushrooms add in 1/2 of the wine, stir to release the fond from the bottom of the pan, and allow mixture to cook down by half. Add in the second half, cooking down again. Add in chicken stock and tomato and sprig of thyme. Continue to simmer mixture until reduced by about 3/4 - at least an hour. Finish by whisking in 3 T butter. Use right away. Can be refrigerated or frozen, though some separation of fat may occur. The Bechamel The most important thing you must know before starting this recipe is that it is nothing like bechamel made with wheat flour. Rice flour does not gelatinize like wheat flour, it is less fine, doesn't brown as fast, and more slowly absorbs liquids. You'll need more milk and more time to cook this bechamel than you would if you used a straight starch. I chose rice because it is more stable than corn starch (unless it is a cornstarch specifically for industrial applications with little shear), which has a tendency to become wet and runny when subjected to temperature changes (especially freezing). With rice, little lumps are par for the course unless you use an extremely fine rice flour, or, better yet, a rice starch. I added tapioca just for a little more instant gelatinization and stability. You'll end up letting this bechamel cook for a long time to break down the rice granules. So if you want to do yourself a favor, substitute your favorite starch in place of the rice flour. It cooks in a fraction of the time. Procedure: Melt Butter. Whisk in starch/flour. Whisk continuously for a few minutes. If you've made wheat-based bechamel before, this stage will look nothing like the same stage with wheat. It will not look like sand, as the rice granules don't absorb the liquid very quickly. Add cold milk to the starch/butter mixture, whisking all the while. At this point I switch to a wooden spoon or a heat-resistant rubber spatula. As the sauce simmers, whisk. If you are using rice flour, to get the texture just right, you'll need to simmer it gently for about 30 minutes (!!!!!!!!!), whisking every couple minutes and keeping the heat low enough so that the bottom doesn't burn. If you are using starch, it should be ready in 3-5 minutes. When it is the viscosity and texture you desire, turn off the heat. If you made the rice and it has lumps, whisk it more. Or use a hand blender for a few minutes. Whisk in cheese and balance out salt & pepper. The March 2009 challenge is hosted by Mary of Beans and Caviar,
Melinda of Melbourne Larder and Enza of Io Da Grande. They have chosen
Lasagne of Emilia-Romagna from The Splendid Table by Lynne Rossetto
Kasper as the challenge.

I am having trouble running the gingerbread update from Peter Alfonso, GPA15. 2 issues are 1. No notification bar. I have tried reflashing it with no luck. I even removed it from the sd card, reinstalled it and it didnt change anything. 2. When I am anywhere and hit the home button, it will show me the lock screen and then return to where I am. Will not go to the home screen. Any ideas? Love Petes ROM's but cant handle this.
GPA15 and notifications Am I the only one who has continually had problems with various notifications in Gingerbread on the OG Droid? GMail notification so far seems to work fine, but after a week or so of running GPA15 I've already failed to be notified of incoming SMS messages until I rebooted the device, and the stock mail app stopped notifying me of e-mail arrivals on the Exchange server (it's configured for Push). These notifications seem to work more reliably than earlier builds (which also had widgets almost never working), but I can't be worrying about whether this is the day I'm not being notified of incoming communications. Very frustrating -- and I'm going to need to go back to Froyo so I'm not missing important notes. Maybe I'll try again with GPA16 when it comes along, but more likely I'll just ride out the rest of my contract with Froyo and enjoy Gingerbread on my next device in October.

The Argentine striker claims he is unaware of talks linking him with a move to Malaga, and hopes his club strengthen over the summer in order to mount a title challenge next term
The forward, who joined Lyon in 2009 from Porto, is said to have been disappointed with the club's progress in 2011-12, which saw them finish only fourth in Ligue 1, coupled with an early Champions League exit to APOEL in the last 16.
This coupled with reports linking him with a switch to La Liga outfit Malaga have led to rumours of a departure, but Lopez insists he has not been in contact with any potential suitors and is continuing to believe his career lies at Stade Gerland.
"I have no doubts concerning my Lyon future at the moment," Lisandro told Le Progres.
"No one has spoken with me. I have seen rumours in the newspapers but I have not had any direct contacts. For now I am not worried.
"But I repeat, I hope we conceive a team able to match the ambitions of the board."
Lopez has scored 68 goals in 127 appearances for Les Gones over the past three years.

Google Inc. and EarthLink Inc.'s Wi-Fi contract with San Francisco would have a renewable four-year term and would require a proof-of-concept deployment before the full network is rolled out, if progress so far in negotiations holds firm, according to the city.
The companies were chosen earlier this year to build and operate a citywide Wi-Fi network with both free and faster paid services. San Francisco officials are now negotiating with them on the exact terms of the relationship, in which the vendors will bear the cost of the network while the city will provide the use of light poles and other city assets for deploying it. The city has said it expects the network to go live in 2007.
The parties have made progress in the talks, which began in May, said Brian Roberts, a senior policy analyst for the city's Department of Telecommunications and Information Services. On Friday afternoon, he defended that progress to the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) when asked about an article last week in the San Francisco Chronicle in which a Google executive said little had been decided. LAFCO is a county agency that provides oversight of cable TV franchises and other issues.
Nothing is definite until the entire contract is agreed upon, Roberts said, but he highlighted some areas where he said there is accord so far.
As negotiations stand now, Google and EarthLink would have a contract to provide the wireless broadband service for four years. At the end of that term, the city could shut down the arrangement without having to show a specific cause, he said. It could also demand the technology be upgraded as a condition for renewing the deal. The term could then be renewed as many as three times, for a total period of 16 years.
The vendors first would have to roll out a test network, which would cover about two square miles, for as long as six months to show whether their technology would really work, Roberts said.
The talks also have addressed some of the thorny privacy issues that have generated criticism he said. Google and EarthLink would be able to collect information about a user's whereabouts while using the network, but that user would be able to opt out of giving that information, Roberts said. If they collect the information, the vendors could only keep the data for 60 days. During that time, they couldn't share information about specific users except in certain cases in which it's sought by law enforcement or courts.
In exchange for the use of its rights of way, San Francisco is seeking 5 percent of gross revenue from the network, Roberts said. It also will seek a fee for use of city-owned light poles. That money would help to support city initiatives to narrow the digital divide between rich and poor residents. Negotiators haven't reached agreement on those financial terms, he said.
Members of LAFCO were skeptical about some aspects of the talks so far, including the city's revenue demands. San Francisco Supervisor Jake McGoldrick said he feared the city was undervaluing the city's assets by seeking just 5 percent of revenue. Roberts said that percentage would be very competitive with what other U.S. cities have gotten.

text: 000 FXUS66 KSTO 231015 AFDSTO Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Sacramento CA 315 AM PDT Thu Mar 23 2017 .Synopsis... Dry day today then rain and mountain snow returning tonight and Friday. Sierra snow impacts likely late tonight into Saturday. Brief break in precip mid weekend but more precipitation early next week. && .Discussion... Radar is clear this morning as upper trough shifts farther into the Great Basin and high pressure builds over the state. Enough clearing has occurred to allow some patchy fog to form in the valley this morning. Once this fog clears, skies should be generally fair most areas today with daytime highs warming to just a bit below normal. Upper ridge axis quickly shifts eastward into the Great Basin tonight with the next upstream frontal system pushing into norcal by this evening. A moderate precipitable water plume associated with this system will bring moderate amounts of precipitation on the order of a half to an inch of rain in the valley and up to a couple inches over the higher terrain between late tonight and Saturday. Moderately high snow levels will mean impacts for Sierra Travel and have issued a winter weather watch for Sierra zones. At this time, snow amounts appear will come in at high advisory or low warning amounts so will have to see how subsequent QPF forecasts pan out. Most precip from this system will end Saturday morning as the front shifts east of the state but a few showers will continue Saturday as Norcal remains under cyclonic flow behind the upper trough axis. Early Sunday looks dry under upper level ridging so likely to see some patchy valley fog again Sunday morning. Another quick moving system brings overrunning precipitation into the north state by Sunday afternoon. A fairly weak frontal system is forecast to bring light precipitation to the forecast area Sunday night. && .EXTENDED DISCUSSION (Monday THROUGH Thursday) Lingering showers over Interior NorCal Monday as upper trough moves through then drier weather expected Tuesday and Wednesday under upper level ridging. Models suggest another short wave trough will bring a threat of some precipitation mainly over northern and eastern portions of the forecast area Thursday. && .AVIATION...

CBS Paramount cleaned out the Star Trek garage and is putting its finds up for sale at Christie's New York this October, putting 4,000 lots of over 1,000 items on the block in conjunction with the 40th anniversary of the Star Trek original series tv show. Captain Kirk's leisure suit (photo above—and no, we don't know if Shatner's girdle is included) is expected to go for five to seven thousand dollars, which puts it in the middle range for costumes but still in the low range overall, but if you're broke, not to despair: Advertisement Fans with more modest budgets can train their sights on a host of Trekkie ephemera like the 10-inch Resikkan nonplaying prop brass flute used by Patrick Stewart as Picard in the episode "The Inner Light" in "Star Trek: The Next Generation," which carries a low estimate of just $300. Cathy Elkies, director of special collections at Christie's, said the value of the objects was difficult to gauge because "we don't factor in that emotional fury generated around this kind of material. Some of the items in the collection are on tour. They're currently in Germany, will be in San Diego in July for the Comicon, Christie's London in early August then Las Vegas for the 5th Official Star Trek Convention, Seattle in early September for a gala celebration at the Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame then Christie's Los Angeles before making their way to Christie's New York for the auction.

Summary: The news media focuses on the month-to-month changes in the jobs report, which consist mostly of noise. Strong months confirm the optimists; weak months confirm the pessimists. In fact the trend of growth remains the real story, with the US economy near stall speed — supported only (like the other developed nations) by massive multi-year fiscal and monetary stimulus. Slow growth bought at great cost. A cost we cannot long continue to pay, borrowing and squandering the money ($ which instead could be rebuilding America). Just like Japan since 1989.

(1) Conclusions
Here we examine the April employment report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. They conduct two surveys: one of households, one of businesses. They are not directly comparable, each giving different perspectives on the US economy. This report paints a picture consistent with the many other streams of information about the economy: slow growth. Slowing slow growth, as shown by this from ECRI — through March. The April numbers (1.6%, 1.2%) are small ticks up in these lines.
(2) About the recovery
To understand the jobs report one must first understand the recovery of which it is one aspect: during this period the government's public debt increased $1.03 trillion — 6.5% of GDP (see debt here and GDP here), one of the higher fiscal deficits in the world. Our shiny recovery results from massive borrowing and spending — plus increasingly unconventional monetary policy.
In other words, organic growth has not yet resumed. The US economy has stabilized and slowly improves only due to the massive "drugs" of monetary and fiscal stimulus (the former boosted with QE3 as the latter winds down). Both have severe side-effects, which at some unknown point in the future will become problematic or untenable. But the worst side effect was unexpected: the stimulus eliminated pressure for reform. We have had the New Deal stimulus without the New Deal reforms (some of which failed, but the others laid the foundation for the great post-war boom).
(3) The Household survey
The Current Population survey is a simple survey of households, with large error bars but no revisions. It's worth watching because it's the basis for the headline unemployment rate, it gives some useful data not in the more-accurate business (establishment) survey, and because some research suggests that the household report shows inflection points before the establishment survey.
Here are the numbers, in thousands, not seasonally adjusted. Note that 1/3 of the new jobs during the past year are part-time jobs. {That's from the March report; appears here in error}
Description | April 2012 | April 2013 | Change | Change |
Employed | 141,934 | 143,579 | 1,729 | 1.2% |
…Employment-population ratio | 58.5% | 58.6% | +0.1 | 0.2% |
Full-time | 113,999 | 115,674 | 1,675 | 1.5% |
Part-time | 27,996 | 28,050 | 54 | 0.2% |
Unemployed | 11,910 | 11,014 | -896 | -7.5% |
…Unemployment rate | 7.7% | 7.1% | -0.6 | -7.8% |
(4) The establishment survey
The second survey asks employers to report the number of jobs. Over one or more quarters it usually shows a similar pattern of growth as the household survey, giving us confidence in the results. During the past year it shows slow improvement at the roughly same rate as the household report (as usual). However, the household survey has shown slower growth during the past few months than the establishment survey.
These are in thousands, not seasonally adjusted numbers.
Description | April 2012 | April 2013 | Change | Change |
Total nonfarm | 133,400 | 135,494 | 2,094 | 1.6% |
Total private | 111,051 | 113,232 | 2,181 | 2.0% |
Total government | 22,349 | 22,262 | -87 | -0.4% |
(5) Measures of Unemployment
(a) New claims for unemployment insurance are one of the most accurate and useful real-time metrics
Compare the change in the seasonally adjusted numbers of the 4-week moving averages (source here) of April 2012 and 2013. Faster decline than either the CPS and CES surveys.
- April 2012: 378,500
- April 2013: 357,500 (-5.5% — weak improvement)
(b) The unemployment rate – a complex metric that gets far too much attention
The analysts at BLS calculate six measures of unemployment, from narrow to broad definitions. None is more real than the others; none are easily comparable to the rough estimates of unemployment during the 1930s (the first reliable surveys were in the early 1940s). Most people consider U-3, or U-4, or U-5 as the most useful measure. U-6 includes people with part-time jobs who prefer full-time work, and so includes underemployment.
Any way you count it, unemployment has decreased during the past year. Slowly. These are non-seasonally adjusted.
Metric | April 2012 | April 2013 |
(6) Another important metric: wages and hours worked
April 2012 vs. 2013 (seasonally adjusted), from the Establishment Report:
- Average private nonfarm hours worked per week: 34.5 vs. 34.4 (no significant change)
- Average weekly earnings of nonfarm private workers: $808 vs. $821 (up 1.6% = no real change after inflation)
Better days are coming, for some of us.

A War on Terror?
Free delivery worldwide
Dispatched from the UK in 3 business days
When will my order arrive?
Marianne Wade and Almir Maljevi? Although the worries about terrorism paled in comparison to the economic crisis as a topic during the last US election, one can find plenty of grounds to assume that they remain issue number one in the minds of politicians in Europe. As the German houses of Parliament prepare to call in the mediation committee in the discussion of legislation which would provide the Federal Police - thus far mandated purely with the post-facto investigation of crime - with powers to act to prevent acts of terrorism, Spain's struggle with ETA and the British Government licks its wounds after a resounding defeat of its latest anti-terrorist proposals by the House of Lords, one cannot but wonder whether post 9/11, the Europeans are not even more concerned with terrorism than their US counterparts. A look at media reports, legislative and judicial activities in either Britain or Germany clearly underlines that those two countries are deeply embroiled in anti-terrorist activity. Can it be that Europe is embroiled in the "War on Terror"; constantly providing for new arms in this conflict?
Or is it a refusal to participate in the "War on Terror" that fuels a constant need for Parliaments to grapple with the subject; begrudgingly conceding one increasingly draconian measure after the other? The question as to where Europe stands in the "War on Terror" is a fascinating one, but one, which is difficult to answer.show more

Terrorism: Documents of International and Local Control: Volumes 1-100
15 Dec 2006
Back cover copy
The events of September 11, 2001, have galvanized anti-terrorist efforts far beyond Ground Zero particularly in Europe, where state responses to terror threats vary widely. In A War on Terror? The European Stance on a New Threat, Changing Laws and Human Rights Implications, an international panel of experts analyzes current trends and new developments in law enforcement and legal systems throughout the continent, including material from non-English-speaking countries that is seldom available to the broader academic community. Offering a succinct overview with special focus on criminal law, police procedure, immigration law, and human rights, the book provides unique insight into what the war on terror means to EU member and non-member countries; state supporters and critics of American anti-terrorist policy; nations with recent histories of outside terrorist attacks and those facing threats from homegrown entities. This comparative approach gives readers three levels of understanding: by country, as affecting the European Union as a whole, and in the context of the UN. Key areas covered in the book: Anti-terrorist policies across Europe, from England, Germany, France, and Spain to Slovenia, Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Frontline issues: threat assessment, terror funding, the use of secret service agencies, effects on Muslim communities, and more. Technological developments, including cyber-terrorism and biometric surveillance. The conflict between human rights and heightened security measures (e.g., extraordinary renditions). The emerging intersection of criminal law with the law of war. While A War on Terror? is geared to specialists and students in the field, it will be of great interest to the wider legal community. Its synthesis of salient findings and expert perspectives enhances the ongoing debate on issues that have the potential to shape the future of global politics and policy.show more

Graeme Smith earned respect of cricketing world with great career littered with toughness and success
When Graeme Smith announced his retirement from international cricket on Tuesday morning, it drew the curtain on one of the best careers in cricket history.
At 22, Smith was named the youngest captain in South Africa's history and, with 52 wins from his 108 completed Tests as skipper, has led his country to more victories than any other cricketer.
Since taking the reins in 2003 he has led the Proteas to the zenith of their power, climbing to the top spot in the world Test rankings.
With one score over 100 (a marathon 234 against Pakistan in October 2012) and four half-centuries in his last 17 innings, Smith had not been utterly devoid of batting form heading into the current series against Australia.
Unfortunately, his efforts in the current series thus far paint an uglier picture.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I bid my career a fond yet sad farewell.
Graeme Smith
He only has 42 runs from five innings against the in-form Australian attack with his highest score of 14 coming in the second innings of the Proteas' victory in Port Elizabeth.
Despite a tame end to his Test career (there is still one knock left though), Smith is undeniably one of South Africa and the game's greats.
His 9,257 Test runs put him second behind only long-time team-mate and fellow recent retiree Jacques Kallis's 13,206 in the pantheon of South African batsmen.
Kallis, with 47, is again the only Proteas batsman in front of him in terms of Test tons as well.
His 277 against England in just his 11th Test (and third as captain) in 2003 remains his highest Test score and sits third on the list of the best innings by a South African, once again behind regular team-mates in Hashim Amla (311 not out) and AB de Villiers (278 not out).
Very strong off his pads with powerful drives through the off-side in particular, Smith was never a batsman with any considerable flourish to his game.
It was his unmatched leadership and toughness that cemented his standing as one of the all-time greats of the game.
One of the most remarkable performances for Australian audiences was his effort in 2009 in Sydney.
After having his left hand broken by a typically brutal Mitchell Johnson delivery in the first innings and also nursing a seriously injured right elbow (also courtesy of Johnson), Smith retired hurt on 30.
With one wicket in hand and 8.2 overs left on the final day's play, Andrew McDonald of all people could have been forgiven for thinking he had won the Test when he removed Dale Steyn to leave the Proteas nine wickets down and 118 runs behind.
Smith, despite coming to the ground without any kit, started to pad up with borrowed gear while Morne Morkel, his replacement as opener for the second innings, tied his laces.
He opened the door of the SCG's visitors' dressing room and walked out to a chorus of rapturous applause from all parts of the ground to join paceman Makhaya Ntini at the crease in an attempt to salvage a draw.
Facing a rampant Johnson, every defensive stroke elicited cheers of admiration from the crowd and also forced Smith to pull his busted bottom hand off the bat.
With just under two overs left in the Test, Smith dangled the bat outside a cutter from his left-armed foe and his bails were promptly sent flying.
That one courageous act perfectly summed up Smith's ability and grit and won over a whole new generation of even the most partisan Australian fans, players and commentators, while also making him one of the best number 11s to strap on a set of pads.
The South African skipper had the ultimate respect of all of his opponents and reciprocated in former Australia skipper Ricky Ponting's final Test in 2012.
Smith and his team-mates formed a guard of honour for the retiring veteran as he made his way out to the WACA pitch, reinforcing his status as one of the most respected men in the world of cricket.
Since then, retirees like Sachin Tendulkar and Michael Hussey have been afforded similar entrances to their final innings and Smith can probably expect the same when he walks out to bat in the second innings in Cape Town.

I'd be really interested in hearing about what specific carving tools you use. I'm not much of a carver but I've got the Foredom, a burner, and a selection of gouges and knives. I'm always interested in what brand of carving tools the people with exquisite skills are using.

Mobile phone masts help phone companies build stronger, more reliable signals. They can be on private property with the consent of the property owner. Though numerous debates have broken out over their possible health risks, no hard data has proved that there are adverse effects to locating one on your property. Keeping a phone mast on your property may come with a few benefits, both to you and nearby cell phone subscribers.
Other People Are Reading
Signal Strength
The most noticeable benefit of having phone masts around will be your cell phone's signal strength. Masts help to spread cell phone signals across great areas and will boost signal strengths for a considerable distance surrounding the mast. This means that phone calls sound better, text messages travel faster, and data transfers more rapidly when you access the Internet on your phone.
Service Area
Phone masts are just small links in the massive chain of a cell phone network. Each mast helps to extend the service area of a given company just a little further, meaning that the company with the most phone masts in the most locations will likely have the largest service area. With more phone masts around, the chances of you finding your phone in "Roam" or without a signal will decrease.
Leasing Benefits
When a phone company wants to erect a phone mast on private property, the owners of that property have to consent to having the mast built on their land. The phone company will usually pay a leasing fee or one-time permission fee, which can often be substantial.

Frank Bessem's Musiques d'Afrique: Remmy Ongala & Super Matimila (Tanzania) |
retour aux Musiques d'Afrique Back to Musiques d'Afrique Back to Musiques of other countries |
Remmy Ongala, born a Zairean, is a very famous man in Tanzania.
He is one of many Zairean musicians who tried during the 1970s to earn a living in music outside
Zaire. Many of them left for Tanzania or Kenya. Back home in Zaire, too many musicians were
struggling to find work in one of the known bands nor for night clubs orchestras, which were
owned by successful businessmen or musicians. Remmy, now nicknamed the Doctor or Dr. Remmy, started in music when the death of his mother left him the role of supporting his family. In 1978, he started playing in Dar-es-Salaam with Orchestre Makassy, and in 1981, he joined Orchestre Super Matimila, a band "owned" by a local businessman. The rest, of course, is history. Matimila's music is laid back and swinging at the same time, a mix of Swahili flavour and soukous rhythms... Remmy sings of poverty and about people that lost their social ties, their dreams. He owes his popularity to the fact that he is still defending the weak in his songs. |

With the arrival of the WHA in 1972 as a new professional league, teenagers could now sign a contract at age 18, though the NHL didn't draft players until 20. Anderson, like teammate John Tonelli the previous week in March 1975, retired from the OHA rather than risk continuing his amateur career under the OHA's contract which bound a player to that amateur team. However, Anderson didn't receive an offer from the WHA immediately and returned to the Marlies and lead them to the Memorial Cup.
Drafted 11th overall by his dream team Leafs, he matured slowly. But by his third year he was a star of the new Kid Line featuring Laurie Boschman and Rocky Saganiuk, though the next year, 1980-81, he called them the Skid Line for their poor season. Later in his Leaf career he played with Bill Derlago and Rick Vaive, again the team's top line, but after four consecutive 30-goal seasons he felt it was time to move on.
A trade sent him to Quebec and another to Hartford, and he spent the last five years of his playing life in the minors, the last two as player/assistant coach for the San Diego Gulls. In 1995, he became head coach of Winston-Salem in the Southern Hockey League, and a year later he coached the Quad City Mallards of the Colonial League to a championship. After one season in Quad City, Anderson became the head coach of the Chicago Wolves in 1997-98 and went on to jlead the Wolves to the Turner Cup title and two years later the franchises first Calder Cup.
