So there's a big debate here on Lostpedia. Is it whatever happened happened or can you change things? Fate/Freewill? etcetc. Here's my idea that includes both!!!
Ben turns the FDW, and...bloop! Unfortunately for all you WHHers this is where i think we get a RESET!!!
Then our friends on the island start experiencing these flashes where they get jumped into different times. And for the WHHers: these KEY KEY times they flash to are events that MUST and DO take place. These are events where whatever happened happened. Let us list them (and i dont remember them all, so please help me!!):
We have (in no particular order)...
1]1950s - Bury the Bomb! Frogurt get's flamed!
2]Post Ajira - In a boat (shots are fired), old beach camp is in disarray.
3]Danielle and co. arrive (and find Jin!)
4]Aaron is born, Locke pours his soul out at the Hatch.
5]Daniel tells Desmond to find his mother.
6]Yemi's Plane crashes, Locke is shot by Ethan.
7]Post Ajira - Richard mends Locke's gunshot wound. FLocke enables the Loophole (which i think is something with the compass btw).
8]VERY brief flash (just to really make sure Charlotte is gonna die!)
9]Statue is visible from where the well had been (but wasnt built yet). Maybe the event with Jacob/MIB watching the boat (Black Rock?) arrive (naaaaa its gotta be wayyyyyyyy earlier than that)?
10]It stops in 1974 (Locke turns the FDW), we join Dharma.
There may be more I forgot about, but I do think that there all seperate flashes, yeah? (I wanna add that one of those brief ones is when Henry Gale [balloon boy] arrives -- mostly joking)
So these flahes are events now that are WHH (and I think are IMPORTANT EVENTS [for example birth or death]). These are the ONLY events that are WHH, and actually im iffy on #5 because I would like to think Daniel changed something by talking to Desmond (I dont think Desmond had buried this memory, I think it didnt exist until Daniel make it).
Everything between the flashes, is yet unwritten (even if weve seen in or have heard reference to it). Whatever gets written in these gaps though MUST directly lead to the events we see in the flashes, however.
So for example; Aaron will always be born on the island, with Kate's help, the day Locke pounds on the hatch. He may not arrive via 815, but this event WILL take place.
Im sure the universe has a natural tendency, and without coercion, events within those gaps would take place as we witnessed in seasons 1-4 (or 1-5 i suppose...). But with coercion, slight modifications may be made, as long as it enables those flashes we saw to come about.
And I just want to plug one last thing -- KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE COMPASS!

Economic development officials say they are working on "five or six" projects to bring jobs to the area and hope to present them to county commissioners within two months.
Economic development officials say they are working on "five or six" projects to bring jobs to the area and hope to present them to county commissioners within two months.
Pete Tesch, president and CEO of the Ocala/Marion County Economic Development Corp., and Rusty Skinner, CEO of Workforce Connection Citrus Levy Marion, each told members of Marion County's new Economic Action Team of the projects during a meeting Monday at Central Florida Community College.
Tesch declined to give specifics afterwards but said during the meeting the projects involved a "broad array of economic sectors," while cautioning team members they "present a wide range of challenges."
He asked for state Rep. Kurt Kelly's help in getting action as soon as possible from Gov. Charlie Crist on the city of Ocala's application for an enterprise zone for its west side.
"Three of these projects would utilize the enterprise zone," Tesch said.
Kelly, R-Ocala, was the driving force behind the creation of the Economic Action Team, whose members include representatives of the EDC, Workforce Connection, Ocala/Marion County Chamber of Commerce, CFCC, Marion County, the city of Ocala, and the offices of Florida House Speaker Larry Cretul, U.S. Rep. Cliff Stearns and state CFO Alex Sink.
Team members are scheduled to present recommendations for job creation and economic development during a meeting with the area's legislative delegation Nov. 17.
Kelly said with estimates of between $2.5 billion and $3 billion fewer dollars available from the state, team members need to come before lawmakers with specifics about their needs. They also should continue to take a regional approach, which puts Marion County and surrounding areas in a better position to compete for dollars with much larger population centers like South Florida, he added.
Among the updates presented during Monday's meeting included a report from John Konkus, district director for Stearns, who noted the U.S. Department of Energy has selected Intellon for a "Smart Grid Investment Grant Award."
A company news release issued Oct. 28 indicates if its negotiations with the Energy Department are successful, Intellon stands to receive $5 million, which the company would match. The money would go to develop a new integrated circuit specifically designed "to support the emerging smart grid infrastructure," according to the news release.
Meanwhile, Evelio Silvera, the chamber's new vice president for business development and public affairs, told members the chamber was working on its launch of a Web site tying into its "Buy Local" campaign.
The next meeting of the Economic Action Team is set for 2 p.m. Jan. 13.

Quote from Glass House with Two Levels :
Having a glass house may not be preferable for some people because of the privacy that is hard to be fulfilled. However, that mindset will change after you see the outstanding house in Bruges, Belgium, the House Roces, designed by the Architectuurburo Govaert & Vanhoutte studio. The house uses glass wall for almost all parts, but with a guarantee of privacy because it is built with trees as the fence of the house.

Uruguay's national government could become the first in the world to directly sell marijuana to the general public.
President Jose Mujica will send a bill to lawmakers calling for the government to sell the drug only to people who are registered on an official database.
Defense Minister Fernández Huidobro told reporters Wednesday the bill is aimed at fighting rising crime in the South American nation, by removing illegal drug profits from dealers and diverting users from harder drugs such as cocaine.
Government figures show there were 133 homicides in Uruguay between January and May, an increase of 70 percent from the same period in 2011.
It is not illegal in Uruguay to either use or possess marijuana.

Good afternoon. It's a privilege to join so many dedicated leaders, distinguished federal and state jurists, and passionate public servants -- including Senator [Ernest] Hollings; Congressman [James] Clyburn, the Assistant Minority Leader; and Mayor [Joseph] Riley -- in honoring an extraordinary leader who helped to change the course of history -- and whose work set this nation on a path that we still follow today.
At the time of Judge Waring's landmark dissent in Briggs v. Elliott, I was less than six months old, and the Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education was nearly three years away. Yet because of Judge Waring's powerful words -- and the legal foundation they helped to provide -- my generation would be the very first to come of age in a post-Brown America. And we were the first that would never know a world in which "separate but equal" was the law of the land.
This seismic shift began in Clarendon County, and in five other communities across the country. It was the result of a confluence of brave actions and courageous individuals -- from Reverend Joseph Albert DeLaine, to Eliza Briggs, to Oliver Brown -- who stood up and spoke out, often at great personal cost, for what they knew to be right. It demanded the vision and resolve of civil rights pioneers, advocates, and attorneys -- like Thurgood Marshall, Harold R. Boulware, Sr., and Robert Carter -- to translate a growing movement into a fight for legal change. And it necessitated the action of our courts to help realize the Constitution's guarantee of equal protection under law.
Judge Waring's dissent in the Briggs case, and the historic Brown decision it made possible, in many ways helped to ignite the modern Civil Rights movement -- giving rise to key advancements that defined the 1960s. But even before these important decisions took shape, here on these courthouse grounds, one judge -- peerless among his contemporaries, who had seen and lived through times of great injustice -- knew that the "showdown," as he put it, "was coming." And as he later recalled: "[t]he question arose as to whether I should dodge or meet it."
When he wrote the groundbreaking dissent in Briggs -- relying on sound legal guideposts, ample evidence, and straightforward reason to conclude that "segregation can never produce equality" -- Judge Waring helped provide moral and legal clarity to one of the most volatile questions of the day. In that opinion and so many others, he didn't just inspire words that have been spoken across the years -- he wrote them. He took concrete steps to expand equality here in South Carolina. And he served as an example of courage, compassion, and conviction to countless brave men and women whose rising demand for justice would not be delayed or denied.
From ending segregation in his own courtroom, to making it possible for African-American citizens to serve on a federal jury here in Charleston; from ruling for equal pay for African-American teachers, to declaring that the state had to provide the same opportunities and facilities to black students seeking a law school education; from striking down a white-only state primary, to proposing the proper vehicle for Thurgood Marshall to put the central question of Briggs to the test -- Judge Waring decisively advanced the cause of equal rights. He challenged systems of inferiority and oppression. And in so doing, he brought our nation closer to its highest ideals.
Judge Waring's tenure on this court provides resounding proof that -- within the framework of our strong and independent judiciary -- progress is possible. Those who are willing to march toward justice -- and stand on principle -- can, and do, change the world. And although we do not choose the challenges and difficulties of our day, Judge Waring's example reminds us that we can choose how we respond.
Today, his critical work has become our own. And it is far from over. From achieving justice for victims of hate crimes, to protecting every eligible American's right to vote; from expanding protections for LGBT individuals and implementing the Supreme Court's ruling in Windsor, to making our criminal justice system smarter, fairer, and more effective -- in everything we do, all of today's leaders must remain determined to confront injustice wherever it is found; to hold accountable those who act out of hate; and to work together to make real the brighter future that lies just beyond the horizon.
That's why Judge Waring's statue belongs on this spot: to remind us what leadership requires, and what it costs; to inspire us to ask ourselves just how much we can and must achieve.
With the dedication of this monument, this remarkable man takes his rightful place in the history of this court, and of our nation. But I believe we can do no greater honor to his memory than to carry forward the efforts that defined his life -- and must continue to impel successive generations to principled action. May each of us resolve, here and now, to do just that.
I thank you all, once again, for the chance to help celebrate Judge Waring's memory, and honor his indelible contributions. And I look forward to everything we'll achieve together in the months and years to come.

Description: She was the world's biggest-ever ship. A luxurious miracle of twentieth-century technology, the Titantic was equipped with the most ingenious safety devices of the time. Yet on a moonlit night in 1912, the "unsinkable" Titantic raced across the glassy Atlantic on her maiden voyage, with only twenty lifeboats for 2,207 passengers. A Night To Remember is the gut-wrenching, minute-by minute account of her fatal collision with an iceberg and how the resulting tragedy brought out the best and worst in human nature. Some gave their lives for others, some fought like animals for survival. Wives beseeched husbands to join them in the boats; gentlemen went taut-lipped to their deaths in full evening dress; hundreds of steerage passengers, trapped belowdecks. Sought help in vain. A Night To Remember From the first distress flares to the struggles of those left adrift for hours in freezing waters, here is the legendary disaster relived by the few who survived and can never forget the many who did not.

Hasan, Dahliana
- Paper Title: Environmentally Related Taxes on Manufacturing Industries in Indonesia: Developing an Effective Framework for Environmental Sustainability and Revenue Raising
- Department Affiliation: Accounting and Corporate Governance Department
- Supervisor's name:
- Associate Professor Hope Ashiabor
- Doctor Kay Wah Chan
- Associate Professor Hope Ashiabor
The concept of environmentally related taxes (ERTs) is far from new. Internalizing negative externalities through tax instruments has been widely discussed since its first introduction in 1920. Of recent years, developed countries as well as developing countries have increasingly used ERTs to prevent and control pollution. However, the actual design of ERTs may differ due to different underlying rationales and characteristics. As one of developing countries, Indonesia has also experimented with the application of ERTs since 1997. Yet, the scope of environmental tax in legislation and the role of environmental tax in practice are still in doubt. To date very few studies have been undertaken both in the scope and in the application of Indonesian environmental taxes on manufacturing industries. this thesis will critically evaluate and examine aforementioned issues to determine the effectiveness of ERTs in Indonesia.
To achieve its purpose, the mixed-method between qualitative and quantitative will be used in this research. Secondary data will be gathered through a qualitative research by examining and analyzing relevant literatures, while primary data will be obtained through a field research by employing both qualitative and quantitative method concurrently. All data will be classified, reviewed and analyzed in accordance to the research questions.
The findings will contribute to the scarcity of the literatures and even further will provide realistic policy recommendations in managing the environment in Indonesia by using tax instruments.
Environmentally related taxes, manufacturing industries, environment.

On the first Sunday of March, China awoke to sickening news: Attackers with knives had hacked through crowds at the train station in the southern city of Kunming , killing 29 people and injuring more than 140.
Reporters leaped into action, gathering details from victims in their hospital beds. President Xi Jinping urged all-out efforts to investigate the slaughter. The incident was quickly dubbed "China's 9/11".
[1]Yet by nightfall that Monday, Xinhua had signalled it was time to move on. "Kunming railway station serious violent terror case is successfully solved," its headline said.
The public was left with just basic details, and since, there has been a silence that has frustrated victims' families. Analysts say Beijing's approach reflects a mix of embarrassment, self-interest and legitimate counter-terrorism strategy.
At the same time, activist groups that would normally challenge authorities have their own reasons for not pushing for fuller disclosure.
Officially, Beijing has said that six men and two women were involved in the attack. Four were shot and killed at the station, one was captured there and three others arrested elsewhere, officials said. On March 29, state-run media said the four detainees had been officially charged, but gave no trial date or venue.
Besides the suspected ringleader, Abdurehim Kurban, no other name was revealed. Authorities never specified whether Kurban was among those killed or detained.
Flags of "East Turkestan separatist forces" were found at the scene, officials said. East Turkestan is another name for Xinjiang , a northwestern region populated largely by minority Uygur Muslims, who have clashed with Han Chinese.
"This attack is a huge embarrassment to the Chinese," says Rohan Gunaratna, a terrorism expert at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. "Certainly this case is far from being resolved, because they have to track the money, the supporters, so many others who were involved. This kind of investigation will last easily more than a year ... No one should say that this case has been closed."
Unanswered questions
No one is publicly questioning how and why the Kunming attackers organised the assault, why they chose that city, why authorities were unable to prevent it, and why it took 10 minutes for an armed SWAT team officer to arrive on the scene and shoot five assailants.
"Who can we ask? No one will respond," says Yang Tao, a Beijing lawyer whose cousin, Wang Kaikai, was slain. "The government will control what's released, and there are a lot of things they don't want you to know."
In contrast, families of the 154 Chinese passengers on Malaysia Airlines flight 370, which disappeared a week after the Kunming attack, have received huge media coverage and official attention.
"All of them should be valued equally," Yang says. "But if you compare the effort that has been put in to helping the Malaysia Airline victims' families, you can see that the Chinese government's actions on the Kunming families are far behind."
Nevertheless, it's too simple to say that pure loss of face is why officials have hastened to cut off discussion, experts say.
"The reason people do things like [Kunming] is to make people feel scared, and overwhelming reporting will help them realise their goals," said Yang Shu, head of the Central Asia Studies Institute at Lanzhou University.
Endless discussion about Kunming, others note, might stoke anti-Uygur feelings among Chinese, fuelling discrimination that could worsen relations. Others say authorities don't want to afford extremists an opportunity to discuss their motivations.
"The Chinese don't want to have a situation like in the US, where terrorists can get on CNN, and the media gives militants a pulpit," says Jacob Zenn, a Eurasian affairs analyst at the Jamestown Foundation in Washington. "I'm sure if some of these individual attackers' stories were aired, particularly the women, [some people] might be sympathetic, despite the crimes committed."
Authorities blame separatists for violence in Xinjiang, though Uygurs say many cases stem from protests over efforts to suppress their Islamic practices and culture. The Turkestan Islamic Party, a Pakistan-based militant group, praised the Kunming attack in a web video, but did not claim responsibility.
With such extremists talking about Kunming, moderate organisations such as the World Uygur Congress see no gain from raising questions about the suspects or their circumstances.
"In this way, though they have absolutely opposite goals, the [Chinese government] and the World Uygur Congress here have common aims, which is: let's not label all Uygur people as terrorists," says Elizabeth Van Wie Davis, a professor at the Colorado School of Mines who has studied central Asian terrorist groups.
Victims' compensation
Media controls make it possible for the authorities to shut down conversations they don't like. But at times, such as after the 2008 Sichuan earthquake or the 2011 Wenzhou bullet train crash, public outcries have forced more transparency.
In the case of Kunming, however, victims' relatives haven't rallied to exert pressure.
The government paid families of the dead US$50,000 in "humanitarian assistance". But authorities in Kunming strategically kept families in separate hotels, then quickly sent them home. That has made it difficult for them to organise and discuss any class-action-type legal suit, says Yang, the attorney.
The injured, meanwhile, remain in limbo. Zhao Dexiu, 44, a farmer from Hubei province, has spent six weeks beside her husband's hospital bed. Li Liangwu has had three operations. On the first day, Zhao says, Kunming officials gave them US$330. Police interviewed her, she says, but never gave her any explanation for the attack.
Zhao says she heard that the injured will be categorised in 10 tiers, and the worst off will receive US$43,000. She and Li are unwilling to budge until paid. "What if he cannot work in the fields? Who will take care of us?" she says. Kunming authorities did not respond to a request for comment.
Wang Hui, who like Yang was related to victim Wang Kaikai, says reporters who contacted her family immediately after the attack were not interested in the compensation issue. "We got the sense they were being discouraged from bringing this up in the press," she says.
Social media commentators also felt the chill. Li Chengpeng , an ex-sports journalist with a large online following, wrote a Weibo post implying that authorities should reveal more. "To quote a reporter from Kunming: 'They never tell you what happened. They just want you to hate blindly and be scared without specific reasons'," he said.
Beijing police quickly posted their own message, quoting Li's commentary and accusing him of being a rumourmonger. "Police in Beijing seriously warn such public figures that they should be responsible for their comments," the message said.
One of the few challenges to the official Kunming narrative came from the financial magazine Caixin, which published a story on March 11 saying three of the suspects were arrested on February 27 - before the attacks.
That raised questions about whether authorities could have prevented the rampage. The report said the group had tried to detonate an explosive in another town before going to Kunming, and that the woman suspect shot dead at the station was the accused ringleader's wife.
The article was quickly blocked or deleted online.
