How to Handle an Aggressive Person under the Influence
Drinking and drug use can radically alter a person's behavior and character. Almost everyone occasionally has moments where they feel angry or frustrated at someone else's behavior, but most people are able to vent their anger in relatively helpful ways, by communicating with the person involved, expressing your hurt or disappointment with a supportive friend, or finding outlets to "let off steam."
However, there are people who struggle with expressing anger in a healthy way, are more irritable, less able to manage their anger and display lower levels of empathy, and they are more likely to "lash out" and attack the person toward whom they are feeling anger. For people who are already predisposed towards aggression, the influence of alcohol or drugs can sometimes be the tipping point that leads to violent behavior.
Drugs and alcohol alter the brain's chemistry; lowering executive systems that make a person stay "under control." A person under the influence is more likely to act without inhibitions and on whims.
For some, this means they will be more likely to engage in violent or aggressive behavior. If you are in a relationship with someone with a substance abuse problem, there is a possibility they could become aggressive. Here are some helpful tips to know how to deal with what is often a scary situation.
Protect yourself
Your first goal when dealing with an unpredictable and violent person should be protecting yourself. Look for a plan of escape, have backup, and be prepared to simply leave the situation and call for the police or a trained councilor.
The situation may be so bad that you may be unable to control it. If that is the case, prioritize your own safety and simply get out.
Do everything you can to keep things calm
Aggressive people frequently get more aggressive when they feel threatened and "backed into a corner" (literally or figuratively). You want to do everything you can to try to de-escalate the situation.
Try speaking in a low, slow calm voice, and be careful that your body language comes across as non-threatening. Keep a greater distance away from the affected person then you normally would, and do everything with slowness and gentleness.
Meeting a person's anger will simply inflame them further, but projecting calmness can often help to bring things down.
Prod gently; do not command
A person under the influence is not going to be able to respond to logic or reasoning. Even though you are the sane one in this situation, they are not going to be able to hear anything that furthers their perception that they are being threatened.
Reframe everything you say as a question or choices, saying "Do you want to come with me?" or "would you like to sit down and talk about it?" instead of anything that could seem like yelling back. Even if you do feel verbally attacked, try your hardest to not act aggressively as well.
Someone deep under the influence will be deeply distractible, and you can use that to your advantage by not engaging them directly, but switching to safer topics, or even blurting out random words to confuse them.
Keep the conversation limited to the matter at hand
When a person is under the influence, their mind is radically altered, so that a person's true self disappears, and the drugs take over. This is not the time for an intervention, so in general it might be good to avoid confronting them directly about their drug or alcohol use
They are not able to think rationally, and will simply respond defensively or with more anger. Try to do what you can to get them to calm down, and then let time do its work. With rest, the effects of the drugs will wear off, at which time you will have a greater ability to have a real discussion about a person's destructive habits.

Bexar County detention deputy accused of hurting inmate faces termination
Updated 11:46 pm, Wednesday, March 16, 2016
A Bexar County Sheriff's deputy is being terminated after he was indicted by a Bexar County grand jury on several charges Tuesday.
Ricardo Gonzales was indicted on three charges including assault with bodily injury, civil rights violations, and official oppression, according to a BCSO news release.
Gonzales, who was assigned to the Detention Division since 2004, stands accused of hurting an inmate while he was working at the Bexar County Jail. He was arrested Tuesday night without incident and was being processed by the magistrate's office.
All offenses are Class A misdemeanors punishable by up to one year in the Bexar County Jail and up to a $4,000.00 fine, authorities said.
BCSO detectives conducted the investigation that moved the case to a grand jury, officials said, noting they are in the process of terminating him as of Tuesday night.
"The Bexar County Sheriff's Office will not tolerate this sort of behavior," authorities said at the end of the statement.

Denon's TOTL in their 1990 lineup. Has many, but not all features you could ask for for a high-end deck, including AMR 3 head, close loop mech, CD direct in and gold plated connectors. Lacks some fancy design featured in flagships of other makers, like DD capstan, switchable display or seperate channel level/bias control.
The 'precision component' tagline was adequate. Parts used in the machine are very reliable, however not necessarily with best spec. For example, opamps used are mostly ROHM BA15218s, which are neither known as the most powerful nor the most sweet sounding. Elcos are LL series, low failure rate indeed, but not acoustically impressive. Belts used in the mech are tough, very few have failed despite most units were manufactured between 89-90.
All in all, a very valuable deck of mid-high range!

I picked up one of these from one of my local thrifts....a top of the line machine in it's day that I would not otherwise have afforded. It plays beautifully, with great sound stage and presence, and has re-awakened my interest in my large cassette collection. Like LPs, there is just a certain characteristic to tape that defies explanation. Highly recommended.....

Denon DRM-800A. Decent Deck. Looks nice and works very well. Really a working horse. Had this unit for three years. Quiet smooth mechanism and good quality amorphous heads, never had a problem with any tapes. A bit weaker on the amplifier/electronics part but you get what you give. For the money it costs these days it's almost perfect middle-end deck.
re: DRM-800
This was my workhorse for fifteen years. I have made possibly 800+ tapes for myself, friends and family. It has worked flawlessly for it's entire service life. The only better sounding deck I've had is a Nakamichi, but that unit was very unreliable, eventually needing the entire transport replaced at significant cost.

The Standard: A Senior Narrative Book Jacket by Estelle De Zan (2017)
Click to read Artist Statement
Last semester, I wrote a short story in English class by the name of The Standard. Set in a dystopian future, it is a literary critique of the norm that has become standardized testing. In an effort to encourage higher performance rates, an organization named "The Board" was created as a breeding ground for productive members of society. With all forms of creative expression banned as distractions, students are forced to wear bland colors and follow a strict ritual. His first day in the system, Lucas navigates his way around the strange world, trying to grasp why everybody appears to be unquestioning and obedient. Readying himself to accept his destined fate as a drone, he meets a girl named Annie who proposes another option.
In Design, we then decided to create a book jacket set to illustrate this story. Working on Adobe Illustrator and InDesign, I then played with layering and the employment of different tools to create a clean and legible format. Outlining a boy holding a timecard and a girl standing before him in a barren hallway, I feel as if my book jacket accurately gave perspective readers a glimpse into the novel inside. Struggles I found myself debating as a result of this project was choosing an appropriate color palette and hinting at the story without giving it away. Although I am satisfied with the final outcome, I would've gone for a more minimalistic design and put more effort into choosing a fitting font had I been given the chance to do it again.

A Labor of Love (1976)
Coming soon to DVD!
Nearly 35 years after my first viewing of A Labor of Love, I am pleased to report that both the print itself and the unscripted humor of the performers have stood the test of time. The reactions of a screening audience at the University of Chicago confirmed the notion that people not trying to be funny may often be hilarious.
Robert Flaxman and Daniel Goldman released their documentary A Labor of Love in 1976 during the early days of 35mm porn, when grindhouse cinemas in the seamier sections of large cities were the only places to view explicit sex in the movies. The filmmakers were granted carte blanche access during a three-week shoot in Chicago for an independent art film called The Last Affair, a serious drama that was to include hard core sex scenes.
The documentary opens with a dark screen and the metallic scraping of an unblimped 35mm camera. The whine of the motor serves as a constant reminder of the impersonal nature of staging erotic scenes in the presence of a director and crew. Several male cast members express their apprehension at achieving an erection in front of the camera.
The unscripted, verite nature of this film will appeal to today's reality savvy audiences. We meet several characters, some of whom we like and others we hope will fail.
There is Debbie, a young model turned actress who clearly believes her performance in The Last Affair will be a catalyst to stardom. She doesn't seem uncomfortable about her sex scenes until she notices non-crew members peeking around a door to the set.
Debbie's co-star is Jerry, a handsome hunk who worries his lack of attraction to his co-star will impede his ability to get aroused for their sex scene. The best stories revolve around conflict and these two clearly dislike each other.
We also meet a sleazy, middle-aged actor who writes his own dialog during a creepy daddy/daughter fantasy encounter at a male brothel. When his improvising becomes too uncomfortable, the director yells out "stop talking!"
The funniest character is an enthusiastic young man recruited to replace an older actor who was not able to perform during an essential sex scene. "They asked me if I would like to step in and I thought, why not?"
The director of The Last Affair is a gentle soul named Henri, a novice who is obviously uncomfortable with the prospect of shooting his actors engaging in various sexual activities. He signed on to helm a serious drama without realizing his financial backers were planning to use explicit sex as a marketing ploy. Flaxman and Goldman, the documentary directors, convinced Henri to wear a wireless microphone allowing viewers to hear his instructions to the actors.
The humor of this film is derived from the unedited comments of the performers. Just like kids, these young thespians say the darnedest things. Unlike today's reality stars, the cast of The Last Affair didn't promote personal agendas and weren't selling themselves to Flaxman and Goldman.
As tensions build, the frustrated cast and crew members begin to lash out at each other. When the atmosphere starts to resemble a porn version of Waiting for Guffman, Flaxman and Goldman keep the camera rolling and let the antics of the cast determine the direction of their documentary.
A Labor of Love allows the viewer to be a fly on the wall during the creation of a serious film that just happened to contain explicit sex. The cast of The Last Affair, inexperienced and vulnerable during the troublesome shoot, opened up to the documentarians and revealed their insecurities. This is unfiltered reality film-making without today's showboating attitudes.

Premier Tom Marshall is hosting the provincial cabinet in his home district of Humber East for the next two days.
The government ministers have all gathered in Corner Brook for meetings today and Thursday.
Before the discussions begun in the boardroom of the premier's office in the Sir Richard Squires Building, Marshall and his cabinet met with local media for a photo opportunity. They would not take questions and an agenda for the cabinet meetings was not provided.
The premier was asked if he would be taking up the ALS ice bucket challenge issued to him by the ALS Society of Newfoundland and Labrador the day before. He said to "stay tuned" and joked he might delegate one of his ministers to do the challenge aimed at raising funds and awareness of the disease.
Marshall and the cabinet ministers will be available to take questions from the media Thursday morning.

Location: Crop Production Systems Research2011 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416)
Objectives are: 1) Control off-target drift and enhance penetration of active ingredients, such as fungicides and biological control agents, into crop canopies; and 2) Develop remote sensing methods, utilize and evaluate Global Positioning Systems (GPS), develop methods amenable to rapid image processing, and evaluate flow control systems to support variable rate aerial application.
1b. Approach (from AD-416)
This project seeks to advance application technology through improvements in 1) drift management technology, 2) technologies for improved within-canopy deposition, 3) use of low-altitude remote sensing to identify stressed plants, and 4) performance of variable rate aerial application systems. While drift management is a concern for all pesticide applications, it is of particular concern for aerial applications. The potential for drift is greater for aerial application due to higher altitudes of spray release and greater air turbulence in the wake of the aircraft. Determination of optimal spray release height will be a goal, as the effect of this variable on within-canopy deposition and off-target drift has not been considered adequately. Experiments for both drift and deposition will attempt to reduce confounding of treatment data with environmental effects, preserving statistical precision of the experiments. Penetration of sprayed material to the lower portions of the canopy is critical for control of fungal spore diseases like Asian Soybean Rust (ASR). Studies will compare nozzle types paired with carefully selected formulations and tank mixes for spray penetration. The deleterious effects of off-target herbicide drift to cotton will be detected using hyperspectral, multispectral, and thermal remote sensing techniques. Evaluation of variable rate aerial application systems will be continued and improvements will be made through interaction with system component manufacturers. Experiments are also proposed to demonstrate the validity of techniques developed.
3. Progress Report
Experiments were completed to determine the effects of formulation, relative humidity (RH), ambient temperature, and droplet volume on the size of droplet stains applied to water sensitive paper (WSP) used in spray drift and deposition studies. This experiment was conducted to improve spread factor equations for more accurate representation of droplet diameter. A model was developed to determine these effects on droplet diameter. A 0.24% increase in droplet stain area per 1% increase in RH was determined, which translates to a 5% increase over the range of relative humidity normally encountered in the field. In practice, this was not seen to be significant enough to measure and compensate for when using WSP for drift and deposition studies. Use of a surfactant increased average stain diameter on WSP by as much as 40% over the application of water alone. Data were analyzed for a study that quantified the effects of application height on spray drift and in-swath deposition of spray. A new method to account for wind direction and calculate the effective distance to the drift samplers was implemented by an M.S. student at Mississippi Valley State University as part of her thesis fulfillment. Results showed deposition of tracer material applied from the 3.7m application height to be up to three times the deposition of material from either the 4.9 or 6.1m heights on samplers closest to the spray swath. These differences decreased with distance from the spray swath. The deposition of material at 4.9 and 6.1 spray heights were comparable. A greenhouse study was conducted to characterize soybean plant injury due to varying rates of applied glyphosate in a spray chamber. Each of the two rates, 0.086 kg active ingredient/ha (ai/ha) and 0.86 kg ai/ha, was applied to four potted plants, and four were used as control. A hyperspectral imaging system, spectroradiometer, and chlorophyll fluorescence meter were used to measure plant responses to applied glyphosate 1, 2 and 3 days after spray. Data for this study are being analyzed. A field study was conducted to characterize corn, soybean and cotton plant injury due to varying rates of glyphosate applied from a ground sprayer. Each rate was applied on four plots of plants, which were randomly distributed in a crop field and compared with data from control plots. A hyperspectral imaging system was used to measure the plant responses in 1, 2 and 3 weeks after treatment. Plant injury was assessed visually and biological responses were measured as dry weight, plant height, and chlorophyll. Hyperspectral image processing methods were developed in collaboration with Mississippi State University via Specific Cooperative Agreement. Significant bands are being identified and correlated with plant rating to establish the relationship between spectral range and plant injury.
4. Accomplishments
1. Crop spraying guidelines to prevent off target movement of spray. Aerial Applicators should not spray during unfavorable atmospheric conditions, which include atmospheric temperature inversions and stable atmosphere. Spraying should be avoided under these conditions to prevent crop damage and environmental hazards caused by long distance off-target movement of spray. Times of the day and weather conditions were documented in the Midsouth U.S. under which aerial applicators should not spray, and it was found that spraying should not occur when wind speed was less than about 3 mph and when there was less than 3 to 4°F temperature rise from the morning low. An important finding was that the time window during which spraying was permissible was shortened by about two hours under cooler weather conditions. This research has resulted in two invited talks to Agricultural Aviation Associations in Louisiana and Alabama.
2. Early detection of the onset of the crop stress is needed for effective crop production management. Hyperspectral imaging provides a technique for early detection of crop injury with great potential. A visible near infrared hyperspectral imaging system was successfully employed by ARS researchers at Stoneville, Mississippi, in collaboration with Geosystems Research Institute of Mississippi State University, to determine herbicide-induced crop response to applied glyphosate at different application rates. Use of this system will allow specific spectral bands to be determined that indicate onset of crop stress due to herbicide induced damage, nutrient deficiency, and water deficiency.

The fiscal deal to avert "The Sequester" did not materialize, and according to Barack Obama, it is the fault of Congressional Republicans. Make no mistake though, this "sequestration" was signed into law by BARACK OBAMA on August 02, 2011.
Democrats across Washington, DC and the nation are shrieking and howling that the mandatory sequestration is being caused by Congressional Republicans who are unwilling to negotiate. In reality, the Republicans are just following the limitations and restrictions of the Budget Control Act of 2011. The Act that Barack Obama signed into law 19 months ago.
The Budget Control Act of 2011 gave the President vast leeway to increase the debt ceiling at that time, but required that budget cuts be made that were greater than the amount of that ceiling increase. Obama quickly spent through the money allotted, but Democrats in Congress were unwilling to cut spending, instead opting to RAISE TAXES to generate more funds for them to spend!
Since the spending cut amount requirements of that Budget Control Act were NOT met, automatic cuts outlined in that Act are now going to be put in motion. Those automatic cuts were clearly outlined when Barack Obama signed the Act. Make no mistake these cuts are not a surprise to Obama and company.
Much like frat kids who are happy to drink all night, but loathe to pick up the mess, Congressional Democrats and the President have spent funds on pet projects, false stimuluses, and pie in the sky programs – for which the tab has now come due, and instead of taking responsibility have taken to blaming Congressional Republicans for actually following the law.
Democrats like Congressperson Maxine Waters have become so ramped up in their fearmongering of the sequestration that exaggeration is seeping into their hourly diatribes "We don't need to be having something like sequestration that's going to cause these job losses – over 170 million job losses…" Waters' spokesman later corrected the exaggeration in an email to The Daily Caller saying that Waters "obviously misspoke – she meant 170 thousand, not 170 million, jobs". Sure, mispoke, because 170 thousand just wouldn't have had the terrifying impact that a number 1000x larger does!
Democrats want to raise taxes to make up the difference, further crushing the stumbling American economy, Republicans have asked for significant spending cuts that follow the requirements of the Act signed into law so many months ago by the President.
The President is now blaming Republicans saying "Let's be clear … It's happening because of a choice that Republicans in Congress have made. We shouldn't be making a series of dumb, arbitrary cuts to things." Those "dumb, arbitrary cuts" are mandatory cuts that Obama signed into law!
So who is really to blame? Is it the Democrats who spent like drunken sailors, and now want to leave the American Middle class with the hangover? Or is it Republicans, who are refusing to raise taxes, and instead told Democrats to strap in and make cuts to satisfy the requriements of the Act?
In our article "the trigger" we outline the automatic spending cuts. Some cuts will be painful, many are going to force cuts in government agencies desperately in need of a slim down.
Make no mistake though, no matter how many times Obama and the Democrats try and shift blame, these arbitrary cuts are the payment for the spending Obama and the Democrats signed for 19 months ago.

Bats are flying mammals that regularly feed upon insects and fruits. About 10 bat species out of 1,000 feed upon the blood of other mammals, although the U.S. varieties feed strictly on insects. Bats like to nest in crawl spaces such as attics and barns and can often leave behind bat droppings, or guano, even after the problem has been eradicated. Understanding how to properly rid your home of objectionable odors and bat droppings is important to the health of you and your family.
Bat Guano
Bat droppings can pile up quickly and produce a strong, rancid, ammonia smell during the decomposition process that is highly unpleasant. With heavy bat infestations, bat guano can accumulate in piles high enough to rot sheetrock and in some cases even cause collapse. Excretions can drip through the ceiling, producing unsanitary splotches on ceilings that can harbor disease. Cleaning up bat droppings should be done carefully, as the dried-out guano carries dangerous spores for years even after the bats are removed and may contaminate storage items in attics and crawl spaces.
Histoplasma capsulatum is an airborne fungus that grows in soil or materials covered in bat droppings. Airborne spores take flight when the area has been disturbed, and breathing them in can cause an infection called histoplasmosis. This disease is often hard to detect and in some cases does not produce any symptoms at all. It is unresponsive to tuberculosis treatments, so exposure should be avoided. It is important during the removal process that you are properly protected from inhaling the spores.
It is always best to have the area decontaminated by a professional, but for those wishing to perform the work personally, a respirator or a Hepa filter device should be worn when removing bat droppings. You should also wear an inexpensive plastic coverall, gloves and goggles. You may also wish to wear a headlamp in order to view the area you will be cleaning more properly. Protective wear may be purchased online or in some hardware and department stores.
Some professionals recommend lightly wetting the bat droppings to cut down on the amount of airborne spores while cleaning. Vacuum the bat guano up with a shop vacuum or other device that is not as likely to put as much dust back into the air as you are sucking up, making sure to fully remove any pockets of insect infestation you may find in the area. In worst-case scenarios, insulation and sheetrock may need to be removed in order to get to all of the droppings.
Once the guano is removed, the area should be thoroughly sprayed down with a decontaminant and deodorizer. Many professional companies use an enzyme-based biohazard decontaminant that may be available for purchase online. Check with your local pest control expert for details. Other strong decontaminants that destroy bacteria and germs may also be used. Treat the area and allow it to dry for 12 hours, repeating after 12 hours for particularly severe infestations. If a bat odor is still noticeable after an additional 24 hours has passed, wait another 24 hours to treat a third time. This should take care of the odor problem.

You have upgraded to the latest sys(k?)logd package from Incoming. It looks like syslogd isn't started correctly. login tries to syslog(2) in case of root login, and this syscall causes the login to hang. For the same reason, sudo will not work either. Can you check if you have a /dev/xconsole? Maybe syslog tries to write to it. I had this problem often with the 1.3.6x kernels, probably due to some incorrect FIFO stuff. Fast solution: reboot in single user mode and reinstall the old syslogd package. Greetings, Ray

Interesting thread... I must say that on the first for points, you are just spot on. We discussed that with Alex this morning, and we may have overlooked the impacts, thus the proposed "solution". Le 5/10/12 7:18 PM, Selcuk AYA a écrit : > > > As for the paged search, one way to deal with it would be to read all > the data from the cursors at the beginning of the paged search and > close the cursor. That was an option we also discussed, but we found it extremely costly. Sadly, i'm afraid that this is the only viable solution... > This would be similar to a normal search. Well, normal searches don't do that. They fetch the entries one by one, using a cursor over an index that may not be valid when we fetch teh entries. That means we also have to make a normal search fetch all the entries... > If we get > worried about memory consumption of this, the entries to be returned > could be spilled over to temp files. That's certainly something we can do. We can even store the data into a JDBM HTree, temporarily. > You might say this might lead to > temp file that are never claimed but if there are not many of them > then no big deal. No, that's something we can handle easily. > Users are supposed to deal with cleaning up their > contexts. Hmm, well, you know, users are... users :) Anyway, as of today, I have cut the 2.0.0-M7 release (yeah!), will start a vote on it, and we will have plenty of time to discuss the best possible solution for this critical search issue. We can even postpone this to 2.0.0-M8, because I think that it's way more critical atm to merge your branch into trunk. All in all, we are aware that there is a problem, even if the proposed solutions are not sane, atm. That's just plain good... Many thanks ! -- Regards, Cordialement, Emmanuel Lécharny www.iktek.com

Stroh 80
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
edit Stroh 80
Stroh 80 is a highly alcoholic spirit which is borderline deadly. It has been used as snakebite antidote, rocket fuel, poison in espionage roles, a creativity tool, contraception and other secret uses to which we can only speculate. The following article gives a brief overview of the Stroh legacy
edit Origins
Stroh 80 is a potent alcohol first developed in Austria by half blind monks. Originally the 80% (160% proof) alcohol was devised as a means for the acolytes of these monks to stimulate hallucinations through which they could communicate with God. This caused the deaths of approximately 90% of those who undertook the ritual, the remaining 10% were so befuddled that they blindly accepted the terms and conditions of entering the Stroh monastic order, which included ritualised buggery and a strange hatred of cats.
edit Use in the Spanish Inquisition
It was in the late 14th century that esteemed inquisitor, Ser Tacticales Chundoris of the Inebriaty stumbled across Stroh 80 whilst conducting a thorough questioning of a particularly annoying yodeler. The actual monastery of the Stroh monks had been destroyed years before by a group of homophobic cats, although the detail remain scarce. Deep within the ruined catacombs Ser Chundoris discovered a hidden vat of fermenting Stroh 80 - from which he drank deep. The reasons for this are unknown, but the most popular hypothesis is that the noble inquisitor was suffering from a particularly virulent cold and as was unable to detect the potent stench of the vile brew.
Regardless of the reasons why, Ser Chundoris later described the experience as "Having boiling hot motor oil poured down my throat whilst simultaneously being violated by a Vanilla flavoured sledgehammer" The fact that he knew what motor oil was whilst living in the 14th century can only be attributed to the revered prophetic power of Stroh 80.
Upon returning to Spain he presented his findings to the devout of the faith, claiming that only the strong of faith could survive such an encounter, and as such "Stroh Dunking" became a popular method of torture, especially when faced with heretics and witches. Indeed, after being submerged in Stroh for so long individuals would drunkenly confess to just about anything. The following are extract from one such interrogation:
"I am a man of faith! I reject these claims on the grounds of no evidence'" - Unknown prisoner before dunking
"Me and you, we get on well yeah? Like we've been mates for like ages...Incoherent babble....but at the end of the day, God is God, so does it matter that I slept with the popes mother? No! See it's logic." - Unknown prisoner after dunking, and before public execution.
The popes mother was then questioned, which inevitably led to the same Stroh induced confirmation, as well as several embarrassing stories of the popes childhood, leading to the banning of Stroh by the pope in the early 15th century.However, illegal Stroh bootlegers continued to supply the drink to interested parties, and this practice continues to this day.
edit Engineering Applications
The interest in Stroh was reignited during the American space race with Soviet Russia. The Russians are a culture founded on the unremorseful and unabashed consumption of copious amounts of alcohol. It was in a small bar in Siberia that the idea to use Stroh as rocket fuel was first devised by local farmer Demitri Strohanoth and alleged descendent of the Stroh 80 monks. During a bar fight Dimitri took a bottle of Stroh and forcibly thrust it into the exposed backside of a particularly aggressive bear who'd been giving him mean looks all night. The resulting leap the bear performed caused dimitri to exclaim "Christ, he shot up like a rocket!" Unfortunately the bear preceded to rip Dimitri to shreds. However several members of the KGB were there on a winter vacation and as such reported the encounter to the Head scientists of the USSR.
Whilst Stroh provided more than enough thrust to propel half of Europe to the moon, it was inherently unstable. The first and only attempted rocket launching using Stroh resulted in an explosion the size of 5 Hiroshima bombs.
The obvious step was to militarise Stroh into a weapon, however a ground breaking summit situated on neutral ground in the Bahamas ensured that all Stroh related weapons were banned and prohibited. However many terrorist organisations have attempted to replicate Stroh 80 with inferior versions known as Stroh 30, 50 and 60. However, these imposters do not posses the necessary alcohol values in order to disrupt the laws of physics. As to why 80% alcohol tears the fabric of reality, we are unsure. We can only assume it's because they're drunk off their rockers.
edit Current uses
Most have written Stroh off for any practical applications. However, this does not mean that the age of Stroh is over, indeed far from it. The current champions of Stroh are the snow sports societies of universities all over the world. A recent study conducted by Richard Dawkins on alcoholic driving forces of evolution has shown that university snow sports societies drink on average 573% more litres of Stroh in one day on a ski holiday than the layman does in the entirety of his life. Furthermore the study went on to single out two university societies as particularly high in Stroh intake - NUSSC (Newcastle university snow sports club) and EXE snowsports (Exeter snow sports society). Dawkins concludes that the presence of "living fossils" such as potential future president of NUSSC The esteemed J.Powell GCSE. GNAR. Bsc. Msc and future PHD. suggest that Stroh is actually limiting the evolution of these individuals, and may cause devolution - as seen by EXE's large number of inferior snowboarders and freestylers.
edit Problems with current uses
Unfortunately, the use of Stroh in this way has led to many medical and legal complications. Stroh can lead to mild mannered individuals attempting criminal activities such as breaking and entry. They may also find themselves inexplicably attracted to taking fully clothed baths as well as being drawn to swimming pools. This may be an example of Stroh 80's devolutionary powers to regress individuals to their fish like common ancestors. Regardless of the reasons, consumption of Stroh is only advised whilst in the presence of a trained and dully armed advisor for your protection.
Finally, the excessive consumption of Stroh can lead to what is known amongst medical professionals as a strohvadose.
Quickly! Call the surgeon! We have a stage 3 strohvadose here! - Dr. Tipler, head of the word health association
Symptoms of a Strohvadose include:
- Inability to move
- Slurring of words
- Strange attraction to water and baths
- Consistent cries of "I'm never drinking again"
- Inability to consume a refreshing morning beer
- Extreme, uncontrollable, virulent and contagious projectile vomiting
Those afflicted are recommended to be quarantined and supplied with hangover curing foods.

Parliament Library with a history of one hundred years old is one of the fundamental institutions of Iran contemporary civilization. With the establishment of Constitution in Iran (1906), some of the intellectual Parliament representatives suggested to dedicate a building to a library in order to gather essential sources of knowledge for the Parliament members. It was the first Asian Parliamentary Library.
The building with a limited space was adjacent to the Hoz khane ( a large room in the basement of a traditional Persian house with a small pond in the center ) called Constitution House. At the beginning a number of elite representatives used the library facilities, but gradually it welcomed to a huge number of researchers and students from all over of Iran.
Regarding to this fact, the librarians intended to allocate a more appropriate place for the public and specialized library. In the fifth term of National Consultative Assembly (1923), Aziz ol- Soltani Buildings on the east side of Baharestan Garden was purchased in order to make an honorable library.
With the appointment of Joseph Etesam ol- Molk Ashtiani , the library head in 1925, Parliament library was inaugurated as the first modern formal library in Iran.
Growth and development of the various library collections, documents and books necessitated the administrators to construct a vast library in 1962 which suited to multilateral user's needs. In 1984 the former Senate library named library 2 was added to Consultative Assembly.
In 1996 based on a letter approved by the parliament, the library titled "Library, Museum and Document Center of the Islamic Consultative Assembly "under the supervision of Iran Parliament Head.
The library Parliament Heads are as follows: Joseph Etesam ol- Molk Ashtiani, Ebrahim Sharifi, Dr Taghi Tafazoli, Fakhri Rastkar, Mohammad Shahdadi, Abdol Hossein Haeri, Dr. Gholam Reza Fadai Araqi, Hojat ol- Eslam Seyed Mohammad Ali Ahmadi Abhari, DR. Ahmad Jalali and Hojat ol-Eslam Dr. Rasul Jafarian.
Today, the library with the use of modern equipments and rich resources especially in the field of Iranology has achieved an honorable stand not only in Iran but also in the Middle East. Numerous conferences, including the History of National Assembly, International Conference on the Common Heritage of Iran and Afghanestan, regular attendance at exhibitions, scientific conferences and specialized international organizations and so on are just some of the common projects of the library.
For the time being, Parliament Library consists of some sections : Manuscripts, library 1, Library 2, Iran Islamic Revolution Library, National and International Historical Document Center, Publications, Museum, Periodicals, Protection and Restoration of Manuscripts and Historical Documents, Digital Resources Unit , Digital Resources, Resource Organization Unit, Resource Providing Unit, Representative Library, Research Center, Noskhe Pajuhi ( Research Collection ), Nameye Baharestan ( Baharestan Letter )and Payame Baharestan ( Baharestan Message ).
Detailed Assembly negotiation is a very remarkable resource for future parliament representatives as well as the researchers interested in the fields of legislation, history and sociology. Presently the images of Islamic Consultative Assembly negotiations on the library website are researchable. In near future, the search system of Islamic Consultative Assembly as well as National Assembly and Senate negotiations will be established.
In 1960's it was founded with no advanced equipments to protect the manuscripts against various damages and facilitate services for researchers. Parliament Library equipment with modern facilities has accelerates providing microfilms and digital images in recent years. The new equipments not only make the least damage to the resources, but also the images are so fine that the original copies are not required. The digital unit has provided digital images of more than 24,000 manuscripts in 9 months. It is worth noting that in addition to providing internal network library services, many other online services have been offered by library website www.ical.ir
For the time being, access to Rasan (Digital Library) with more than 14,000 manuscripts has been provided for researcher on the website dl.ical.ir. It is worth mentioning that Rasan has achieved the first rank among the Islamic libraries regarding the number of online manuscripts.
With respect to the 30th anniversary of Iran Islamic Revolution, the administrators decided to allocate a distinct building to the various resources of information about this subject. It was inaugurated in 2008 and welcomes to all interested researchers. The resources include archive documents, digital resources, printed books, manuscripts, periodicals and etc.
The printed books are kept in this part of the parliament library which are included more than 265 thousand volumes of lithography and lead books as well .The books are in different languages as Persian, Arabic, English, German, French, Japanese, Russian, Turkish and etc. They are in the fields of philosophy, law, social sciences, medicine, mathematics, social sciences, history, literature, art and etc. However, they are mostly about human sciences of Iran and Islam.
It should be taken into account that library 1 that is the oldest part of the Parliament Library was basically constructed for the National Assembly representatives to provide them with the most important documents and other sources of knowledge. Today, hundreds of people make use of this library every day.
One of the fundamental sources of this library books are those which are donated by famous educated people like Ehtesham ol Saltaneh, Seyed Mohammad Tabatabai, Najm ol- Dole, Firuz, Seyed Jamal odin- Asadabadi, Emamjomeh Khoi, Gholam Hossein Sorud, Jafar Soltanol Ghorai, Indian Parsis and etc.
Having established Senate in 1949, the administrators intended to allocate a distinct building to social sciences particularly about Islam and Iran. At the beginning, it had just 500 books but they have gradually been increased. The building was initially in Senate but in 1985 it was transferred to Negarestan museum building.
It includes precious collections and valuable resources of Persian, Arabic, English, French books (approximately fifty thousand titles ) and so on. There are about
2000 volumes of unique manuscripts in specific subjects like Islam, Iran and East studies as well as some of extremely rare and privileged geographical maps
related to Iran, the Islamic world and East territories. Therefore, they all provide the researchers with very incredible sources of information.
Furthermore, the periodicals available in this library are very priceless collections of Iran Archive. There are over 96 professional journals in the fields of sociology in both Persian and Arabic languages.
The Parliament Library Database as well as the software of other cultural scientific centers like Document Organization and National Library, the secretariat of other public libraries, Khaneye Ketab ( book home), Nur ( Islamic Research Center) are maintained in this unit. Parliament Library databases which are accessible for to the researchers all over the world consist of Library Resource Database, Detailed Islamic Consultative Assembly, Negotiation Database and Seven Thousand Lithography Database.
The list of all library resources i.e printed, lead, lithography books, manuscripts, periodicals and documents are recorded in Iran software. Iran software which is the recent standard software in the librarianship is accessible online through the Parliament Library.
Manuscripts recalled bright periods of flourishing science and culture in Iran. Iran written heritage includes all fields of knowledge such as philosophy, history, medicine, mathematics, music, geography, astronomy and etc. Protecting these incredible achievements can help Iranian researchers to know more about the precious history they have. Learning more about this heritage can illuminate the dark corners of Iran history.
To guard them, the Parliament library administrators have attempted not only to provide the complete list of the library manuscripts, but also to rewrite them in order to make them accessible for researchers. Moreover, during the last three years a considerable effort has been invested in collecting all of the Persian manuscripts scattered all over the world by the library head, Dr Rasul Jafarian.
Today, there are about 400,000 thousand volumes of books in the library that most of them are listed by well known researchers such as Joseph Etesami, Ibn Yusuf Shirazi, Mohammad Taghi Daneshpajuh, Said Nafisi, Abdol Hossein Haeri, Fakhri Rastkar, Iraj Afshar, Ahmad Monzavi, Ali Sadrai Khoi and Seyed Mohammad Mansur Tabatabai. Today, a number of researchers persistently involve in this activity.
In order to introduce and reveal the manuscripts more effectively, the library has been providing some microfilms and images of them which are easily available to the researchers.
Founders of the library particularly Arbab Keykhosro intended to launch a museum adjacent to the library. They decided to purchase the paintings of Kamal ol-Molk , eminent Iranian painter, and some other artist's masterpieces in order to exhibit in the museum. Grand master Kamal ol-Molk offered some of his precious paintings to be the pioneer in this regards. Having accumulated other unique works like calligraphy, manuscripts and historical documents, the museum was inaugurated.
Having transformed the Parliament to the new building, the library administrators intended to dedicate the Constitution Parliament building called Khaneye Mashrute to the new museum. In 2009 the new museum was inaugurated by Dr Larijani the speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly.
Today the museum exhibits the masterpieces of outstanding Iranian painters and calligraphers like Kamal ol-Molk, Ali Mahmudi, Mahmud Olia and Jafar Chehrenegar. Furthermore, the museum provides a great opportunity for visitors to follow the history of contemporary Iran i.e the history of Constitution, Legislation and Islamic Republic through paintings, photos, statues and documents.

Rosecroft Recap: October 21-22
Posted 2096 days
On a crisp October evening harness racing returned to Rosecroft for the first time in more than three years. An enthusiastic crowd wagered with both fists and management was pleased with the handle.
An answer to a future trivia question is Last Minute Cindy. The question is, "Who won the opening race at reborn Rosecroft Raceway?"
This three year daughter of Metropolitan won the opening race in 2:01.2 in rein to long time leading driver John Wagner. Syl King Jr. co-owns and trains the winner who gamely out-dueled a valiant Royal House to claim the decision.
Wagner and King Jr. combined to sweep the early daily double when BloomfieldcanIfly went down the road and held sway in a 2:04.2 score. King Jr. leeses the winner.
Father and son, Kim and Justin Vincent respectively, drove winners and old favorites William Long and Walter Callahan also visited the winners circle after scoring popular wins.
Driver Donnie Russell sat patiently off quick early fractions and rolled by late to score in the nightcap with Sharpest Edge and Brian Burton scored with his father's (Marty) McKnows on a sharp wire to wire effort.
Youngster Justin Brenneman just missed exploding the toteboard with his stable's El Kabong in the fourth race being caught in the final strides. He made amends in the eight race with the classy veteran Park and Madison who visited the winner's circle for the first time in the last couple years and paid $9.00 as the biggest price of the night.
Last, but most certainly not least, veteran Betsy Brown drilled a field with the powerful turnpiking effort in the seventh race with UB In The Money who blasted to the top and never looked back after several solid tries at Colonial Downs.
Saturday evening racing returned to "The Raceway by the Beltway" and the week's higher class races were held. The weekly co-features, both Winners Over, were the highlights of a competitive card. More importantly all participants, both human and equine, suffered no serious injuries after a frightening spill in the final race.
John Wagner owns, trains and drove Susquehanna Belle to victory in the Winners Over Trot in the opener. This one grabbed the lead approaching the half and held off Good Feeling with a 29.3 final quarter to record her sixth victory of the year. Good Feeling, driven by Donnie Russell, was second best in a good effort.
This was just the beginning of a big night for Wagner as he won four races and would have won a fifth except for an untimely early break which resulted in interference and a disqualification for Rosecroft's early leading driver.
Wagner drove the streaking I Told Gordy to an upset victory in the co-feature for pacers as he sat close to the early pacesetter, angled out on the far turn and charged home boldly down the stretch to record fifth victory in the last six starts for the Thomas Swann owned and trained son of Cam's Card Shark.
Wagner's other wins included Four Starz F, in the third race, and Just Like Lloyd in the sixth race.
Donnie Russell scored two driving victories and the night and Kim Vincent also won.
The night's fastest mile was turned in by Pence Hanover who rated kindly to the half and unleashed a 56.1 back half for driver Justin Hite. Ken Schlotzhauer trains the winner for owner Kelley Rogers.
The nightcap was won by Russell and Gold Like U who drew clear after Call Me Bud broke and fell in the deep stretch causing interference to more than half the field. Amazingly all horses were declared okay, despite a few cuts and bruises, while driver Chris Page was the only driver to be taken to a local hospital for x-rays and is reportedly sore but having suffered no serious damage.
The box for next Friday's races will be open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Monday and for more information check either www.rosecroft.com or www.cloverleafsoa.org for condition sheets or call the Race Office at 301-567-4435 or 4401.
