1. Marginal mandibulectomy.
2. Bilateral supraomohyoid neck dissections.
3. Tracheostomy.
4. Full-thickness skin graft.
5. Split-thickness skin graft.
The patient was noted to have an exophytic lesion of the floor of the mouth
positive for squamous cell carcinoma which was extending into the
symphyseal region of the mandible on the oral cavity side. There was no
breakthrough of the mandible to the mucosal surface of the lip exteriorly
as well as any skin penetration. Marginal mandibulectomy was performed.
Frozen sections returned back negative margins including mucosal specimens
from the tongue as well as the floor of the mouth as well as the marrow
from mandible. There was a positive margin on the left anterior tongue.
Frozen sections x2 were sent revealing a final section with minimal
dysplasia and no invasive carcinoma. Our defect was reconstructed
utilizing a full-thickness skin graft from the patient's left upper thigh.
After the patient was successfully intubated and prepped and draped in
usual fashion tracheostomy was then performed. On the individual a
tracheostomy, the endotracheal tube and a coiledtube was then inserted into the patient's tracheal stoma. At this point , apron flaps were raised allowing us to have adequate visualization of the
patient's bilateral neck. At this point, the right neck dissection was
begun. Supra-omohyoid neck dissection in standard fashion was performed.
Dissection (__________) submental lymph nodes in zone IA was sent of
separately. At this point, attention was turned to delineating the
anterior and posterior (__________) muscles. After fully exposing these
muscles, exposing reflection of the lipo-tissue in zone IB was carried
allowing us to resect the submax gland all the way identifying the lingual
nerve and hypoglossal nerve in the process. Following this, retractor was
utilized to retract under posterior belly of digastric muscle allowing us
to appreciate the hypoglossal nerve. Following this, elevation of the
fibrofatty tissue of the SCM was carried out in the lateral to medial
direction allowing us to unwrap it (__________) the deep neck floor
allowing us to then identify the surface of rootlets marking the deep
(__________) specimen allowing us to retract this in a lateral to medial
fashion. Identification of the internal jugular vein and carotid artery
and the vagus had been all appreciated allowing us then to wrap this
fibrotic tissue from the region of the skull base down to the omohyoid
muscle to delineate any injury over the extent of zone III and it was
finally resected off the internal jugular vein in a (__________) fashion.
The left supra-omohyoid neck dissection was performed in the same fashion.
Following this, mucosal cuts were then made along the inner aspect of the
lower lip mucosal surfaces just adjacent to the mandible and around our
tumor in question from canine to canine. Tooth extractions were then
performed bilaterally to provide adequate cuts for osteotomies. At this
point, internal cuts were made on the floor of mouth from mucosal surface.
Following adequate exposure of the periosteum of the mandible, a sagittal
saw was then utilized to make our marginal mandibulectomy cuts, followed by
mallet osteotome application to free up this cortical aspect from the inner
surface. At this point, (__________) was utilized for traction on the soft
tissue allowing us to rock the mandible forward at which point mucosal
attachments were then severed utilizing electrocautery Bovie. This allowed
us to free up the entire (__________) specimen, which was then passed off
to the back table. Frozen sections were taken from the marrow cortex as
well as the anterior tongue, the left tongue, the right anterior tongue.
The central portion of the floor of mouth as well as the left floor of
mouth and right floor of mouth all of which returned back negative except
for the left anterior tongue which upon 2 more frozen section attempts
returned back minimal dysplasia and no invasive carcinoma. At this point,
reconstruction was planned. A full-thickness graft 7 x 7 cm was harvested
from the left upper thigh and applied to the floor of mouth and was sutured
in place utilizing a running Vicryl stitch followed by bolster application
with Xeroform gauze sutured in with 5 silk sutures. At this point, the
left upper thigh incision was closed and a defect was appreciated at which
point a split-thickness skin graft was utilized for coverage on this region
marking the completion of closure of the left upper thigh. At this point,
our tracheostomy tube, a #8 Portex was then inserted into our tracheostomy
site after removal of the endotracheal tube from anesthesia. This marked
completion of procedure.
I came up with 21045, 38700-50 and 15100? but im not really sure about the 15100. Can anyone help me?

Audio Samples
Track List
Album Remarks & Appraisals:
The creator of two of the most fascinating releases on the New Japan series, (Izutsu and Red Moon) Ayuo now turns his hand to one of the most curious of all Japanese musical forms, the Noh play. Mixing the feeling and sounds of psychedelic with an ancient tradition through the voice and instruments, Aoi no Ue is another masterpiece from one of Japans most prolific and eclectic musical minds. Aldo included here are two lush instrumentals and a minimalist suite for solo piano.
Album Notes
Personnel: Tomoka Nagasu (vocals, biwa, shakuhachi); Kazuko Takada (vocals); Yuji Takahashi (piano).
Audio Mixer: Maeda Motohiko.
Following the exquisite Red Moon collaboration with Ohta Hiromi, Ayuo returns to another medieval Noh play as a source, Aoi No Ue, also written by Zeami in the 14th century. However, unlike Izutsu, pieces not based on the Noh source material also appear on Aoi. "Aoi No Ue" is certainly the centerpiece of the album, lasting more than 20 minutes. It's a good deal more sparse than anything on Red Moon, with Ayuo's electric guitar ranging from ominously distorted to chiming and pretty and interacting with shakuhachi, biwa, and vocals. "A Stranger" and "Oh Light of My Heart" are both multi-tracked instrumentals that closely resemble the lush settings on Red Moon, with sitar-guitar and bouzouki prominent among layers of guitars. Ayuo has a fabulous assortment of tones and a knack for spacious arrangements, and the tunes themselves are beautiful. "On the Morning of March 1, 2005" is a lovely improvisation on solo bouzouki. Rounding out the program are a couple of solo piano pieces (played by Ayuo's father, Yuji Takahashi) that were originally commissioned for a dance performance. The first piece draws heavily from minimalism, maintaining the same rhythmic thrust as the melody shifts behind the rhythms. The second is basically the same composition, but on this performance the rhythms fracture and become slightly disjointed, although the melody is still discernible. These pieces are far different from anything else Ayuo has released stateside, and really speak of his abilities as a composer, not just a player. Because Aoi is basically four distinct sessions, it doesn't hang together as an album quite as well as his previous efforts (though savvy sequencing helps greatly). However, it does give an indication of the breadth of Ayuo's talents as a genre-smashing composer and instrumentalist. ~ Sean Westergaard

There are exceptions, of course, to all rules; the exceptions to this one are:
Partiality, in the matter of rescue, to be shown to:
1. Fiancées.
2. Persons toward whom the operator feels a tender sentiment, but has not yet declared himself.
3. Sisters.
4. Stepsisters.
5. Nieces.
6. First cousins.
7. Cripples.
8. Second cousins.
9. Invalids.
10. Young-lady relations by marriage.
11. Third cousins, and young-lady friends of the family.
12. The Unclassified.
Other material in boarding house is to be rescued in the following order:
13. Babies.
14. Children under 10 years of age.
15. Young widows.
16. Young married females.
17. Elderly married ditto.
18. Elderly widows.

Wall Street has never been known to have the most diverse workforce, and Bank of America's (NYSE:BAC) Merrill Lynch is going to pay a hefty price for a gender bias suit made public this week. According to a Reuters report, BofA will settle for $39 million for policies reflecting gender bias toward female employees. Following a $160 million lawsuit for racial bias at Merrill, Bank of America now has 200 million reasons to adjust workplace policies.
Merrill employees filed the gender bias suit in 2007, according to Reuters, and the original plaintiff was based in Miami. Over time, several female brokers joined the suit, which court papers revealed as finally settled as of this week. The news outlet reports that a three-year process of improving business practices at BofA is included in the language of the settlement.
The racial bias suit stemmed from 2005, and was reported as settled in the past weeks. According to The New York Times, 700 black brokers agreed to settle that suit, which included $160 million in payouts. Merrill's reported 75:1 ratio of white to black brokers as of 2005 did not make a strong case for the firm, which had businesses in 25 states without a single black broker, the Times reported.

Definitely no liposuction or any kind of elective surgery while on Accutane. Isotretinoin (Accutane) tends to make wound healing somewhat more challenging by creating greater inflammation, and possibly hypertrophic scarring. You may want to postpone elective surgery for 6 months after completion of Accutane.
Can I Have Liposuction While I'm Taking Accutane?
Doctor Answers 13
It's probably safe to have liposuction while on Accutane, but why take a chance? Accutane interferes with skin healing and can have side effects on the liver.
Since Accutane slows down wound healing and can affect scarring in unpredictable ways, it seems unreasonably risky to me to have a completely elective surgical procedure while on Accutane.
You might also like...
Liposuction can be performed while on Accutane, but the scars made on the skin may not heal as well as a procedure done while off Accutane. Liposuction addresses the deep subcutaneous tissue and should not be adversely affected by Accutane.
You are not able to get any type of liposuction if it's laser assisted. While you're on Accutane it makes you extremely sensitive to any type of heat, laser, light, sun. You'll need to be off of Accutane for at least 6 months before considering a laser liposuction.
Accutane is a wonderful medication, but it can be pretty hard on the liver. In fact, one of the main side effects seen in many people who take the medication is alteration of liver function enzymes. We check these regularly when someone is taking Accutane.
The safest way to perform liposuction is to use the tumescent technique, or injection of large amounts of dilute local anesthetic solution. Lidocaine is the anesthetic used. Lidocaine can be toxic if high amounts are in the body. The liver has the job of clearing lidocaine from the bloodstream.
If the liver is irritated, damaged, or not working properly as a result of a medication such as Accutane, toxic amounts of lidocaine can build up in the body and lead to very serious complications.
I would advise any patient to wait until they were off Accutane, even if the liver appears to be working properly on the medication. It is simply not worth the risk.
Because of it's effects on fat metabolism as well as the potential to induce depression, I believe it is unwise for a patient to consider Liposuction or other cosmetic surgery while simultaneously treating with Accutane. Mild but temporary depression after successful cosmetic surgery, including Liposuction, is normal. However, any medication such as Accutane that may increase that tendency should be avoided or discontinued prior to the surgery, or the surgery itself should be postponed. Finally, it is possible that the effects of Accutane on the fat metabolism may be responsible for the abnormal distribution of fat that causes the patient to seek Liposuction in the first place. Therefore, if the abnormal fat distribution can be reversed by discontinuing the Accutane, it is better to do this first, before doing Liposuction. Any residual mal-distribution of fat may then be addressed in a more focused and limited fashion by Liposuction, with fewer risks of complications.
Accutane affects every organ in the body, especially the liver. The lidocaine tumescent solution injected during the liposuction to numb up the fat layer is filtered threw the liver as well as any IV sedation meds given during the surgery. Even tho the risk of problems is very little when either accutane is prescribed or liposuction is done alone, the combined effect could be dangerous. I would wait 2-3 months after off accutane to do the liposuction and get a blood test to make sure the liver enzymes are normal. There also is a little more risk of scarring from wounds while on accutane but this is minimal.
David Hansen, MD
Accutane affects the way skin heals after injury. As liposuction is done for cosmetic reasons, the margin for complications has to be very small. In general, I recommend patient wait 6 to 12 months, after being off accutane, before I perform an invasive procedure. There are always exceptions, but I do believe in minimizing risk where possible.
Accutane is a powerful medication with strong side effects related to skin regeneration. Liposuction should be safe from that stand point but I would be worried about general anesthesia. In my practice, I would rather wait but I would also involve my anesthesiologist and the patient's internist in this decision. The liver function tests will come back in general higher which will create some controversy.
If I learned one thing from my training and practice: if does not feel totally right, wait do it later!
Good luck!

Filmed: May 1971, immediately following the closing of the stage musical on which the film was based.
Australian distributor: Self-distributed.
Rating: M
Theatrical release: 'preview' Ballarat 3rd December 1971, the 117th anniversary of the Eureka Stockade. 9th December Sydney at the Mecca theatre in Kogarah and the Mandala theatre Paddington for the Christmas season, then scattered screenings thereafter. The film was viewed, if at all, in an abridged form screened on television, and in prints distributed to schools.

None known.
According to the NFSA, the film was entered into the Brisbane Film Festival in 1972.
At time of writing, there doesn't appear to be any version of this film available - printing materials are not listed in the NSFA archives - all that shows up is artwork for the poster - though in a press release here the NFSA reported that they had discovered a copy of the film (along with the director's long form cut of Jim Sharman's Shirley Thompson versus the Aliens.)
The film is frequently confused in the online marketplace with a 1990 Charlie Sheen picture of the same name, Stockade, directed by Martin Sheen.
If someone tells you you'll be getting Hans Pomeranz and Ross McGregor's Stockade, starring Michele Fawdon and Rod Mullinar, make sure you get them to check the tape before offering to pay.
1. Source:
Kenneth Cook's play was first staged in 1971, and like his 1968 novel The Wine of God's Anger, the musical was part of his passionate opposition to the war in Vietnam, with Stockade offering the chance to protest against government oppression. There is a biographical entry on Cook at the ADB here.
The LP version based on the musical play (CAMS-161, Camden Stereo Records) provided this short CV for Cook:
Kenneth Cook is 41 and lives at Clontarf, Sydney, with his wife Patricia and four children. He is the author of twenty books, including novels, works on travel, photographic studies and text books. He is also a film producer and his films have been running on the A.B.C. for the past five eyars under such titles as Lens on Lilliputt, Lens of Life, Under the Sea, Focus on Flowers, A'Roving, Etc.
He has written some sixty songs which have been recorded by various companies usually sung by his wife Patricia who supplies the melodies to his lyrics from her repertoire of folk songs.
Cook was awarded a 1970 Commonwealth Literary Fellowship on which he wrote the novel, Piper in the Market Place, and received a commission to do the screen play for the film of the same title.
"Stockade" was commissioined by the National Drama Foundation.
Stockade was the first play by writer Kenneth Cook, better known for his novel Wake in Fright, which was also released as a film adaptation in 1971.
The play was commissioned by the New South Wales Drama Foundation and after a bruising encounter with the Jane Street Theatre team, Cook withdrew it and it was then first performed in March 1971 at the Independent Theatre Sydney. The film version retained the play's producer as 'director of acting', along with most of the original cast.
The 31st March 1971 performance at the Independent is listed at AusStage here, and the play and film are listed at AustLit here (subscription service).
The libretto for Stockade was published in 1975 by Penguin, as the second in its series of Australian drama. (Thomas Keneally's play Halloran's little boat, based on his novel Bring Larks and Heroes was published in the same edition).
Stockade is one of a number of Australian productions to look at the Eureka Stockade - other major productions include the 1949 Harry Watt's feature film and the Henry Crawford miniseries, and a silent film shot in 1907.
2. Production:
Stockade is significant not so much for the quality of the film - it is generally conceded to be a dud - but because of the storm that surrounded it.
The film itself was done on the cheap. It was shot on 16mm on a two week schedule at the Australiana village at Wilberforce, then a small town near Sydney. A substantial component of the budget (over one third) came from new federal government funding sources, and this would prove a bone of contention.
Rob Mullinar, Graham Corry, Max Cullen, Sue Hollywood, Michael Rolfe, Norman Willison and Michelle Fawdon were amongst the key cast - all had been in the original stage play - but it was the transparent attempt to turn out a cheap film using a pre-existing stage musical that became another bone of contention.
Sylvia Lawson in The Australian was dismayed that an opportunity to make a real film about a signficant historical event had been missed, and that instead filmgoers were being offered a film of a play without being told that was what they were getting.
3. Release:
The film never had a proper theatrical release, but many people heard about the film without actually seeing it.
The film was attacked by Liberal MP for Ballarat Dudley Erwin for receiving government funding while containing immoral content (some scenes were set in a brothel in the Eureka Hotel, with 'Ma' Bentley 'conducting' the seductions - the film was later approved for screening to secondary school students doing junior history and drama and film appreciation).
The MP proposed that the film be withdrawn from exhibition, ironic in that the film struggled to reach an audience.
More significantly, the film failed to find a commercial distributor, as explained by Brian Davies in Pomeranz's obituary in the Sydney Morning Herald on November 15th 2007:
In 1971 the feature film Stockade ignited a political and commercial battle that nearly ruined Spectrum but galvanised the community. Australian cinemas generated about $85 million annual income for the United States industry, tax-free, because the US distributors and exhibitors claimed that their earnings here only met the costs of making prints for Australia...
...A distribution company undertook to exhibit it but the deal fell through. Exhibitors and distributors closed ranks, offering the identical deal, but not one the filmmakers would accept. Cook and Pomeranz argued that Australian audiences were to be denied seeing an Australian film about Eureka funded by AFDC. Stockade became a national political controversy.
Kenneth Cook and Hans Pomeranz decided that they would self-distribute (fourwall) the show.
However this brought the producers into conflict with the NSW government, which refused to enforce quota regulations for Australian films, but enforced regulations in relation to the prohibition of public screenings in unlicensed halls near picture theatres. Davies continues the story:
Cook and Pomeranz eventually arranged for a premiere in the Orange Civic Centre. The NSW chief secretary, Eric Willis, raised health and safety issues and said that films could not be publicly screened within several hundred metres of cinemas. Pomeranz alleged that filmmakers were up against "slush funds" from America. The film, which was given some sympathetic reviews (along with some hostile ones) remained a costly outcast. It was premiered in Ballarat and screened in halls around Victoria. A nervous industry applauded.
It wasn't quite like that - there were dissident members of the industry, as well as dissident critics, who argued that the film wasn't of sufficient quality to justify making a stand.
Pomeranz at first persisted. He demanded that the Chief Secretary Eric Willis initiate an inquiry into the New South Wales industry, and the control of distribution and exhibition by foreign companies, proposing that Australia was a dumping ground for overseas films, and demanding that American profits be put into Australian productions - with 10% of films screened to be Australian made.
The AFDC investment in the film also caused controversy. Greater Union's managing director called the corporation a joke, suggesting that its executives knew little about the film industry or distribution, and Tom Jeffrey, as the secretary for the Producers and Directors Guild, responded by suggesting in its first year of operations the AFDC had done more to encourage and invest in local films than GU had done in the past 25 years.
The Australian Theatrical Employees Association even talked of establishing a chain of cinemas around Australia to promote local product, but nothing would come of the proposal.
Nothing happened immediately - the regulations were maintained - but the controversy was another reminder of the difficulties producers faced, and added to the momentum for change and for government assistance, on both federal and state levels. In the end Pomeranz withdrew from the battle, and Stockade quietly disappeared from view.
4. Hans Pomeranz:
After the fuss over Stockade, Pomeranz, a Dutch immigrant who arrived in Australia in the nineteen fifties, gave up film production.
He concentrated instead on his post-production facilities house, Spectrum Films on Sydney's north shore, which he'd established in 1964, and which had faced financial difficulties because of the facilities investment it had made in the production.
Spectrum recovered, and it would be fair to say that in its hey day there were very few film-makers who didn't cut a film at Spectrum.
Brian Davies' obituary of Pomeranz is currently available at the Sydney Morning Herald website here.
Pomeranz and his family came from the Netherlands in the 1950s after enduring the horrors of the second world war - Pomeranz had ended up in an orphanage, and as a "son" of Protestant minister, to escape the German occupiers. It's worth quoting Davies at length in relation to Pomeranz's career in the film industry:
Working in a film laboratory, he wanted to be where the films were shot and made. He began dropping into the ABN-2 newsroom at Gore Hill, running messages. When a vacancy for a trainee film editor arose, an affectionate cry went up: "Give the wog the job!"
Pomeranz graduated swiftly from editing news and newsreels to the program Weekend Magazine. Scriptwriters wanted him to edit their stories. Film editing was his forte and provided a community in which he clinched his citizenship, put down his professional roots, developed a network of friends and heard the first siren call of the industry's quests for talent.
Of the scriptwriters who hounded him, Kenneth Cook, who made the film Wake In Fright, broke from the ABC to make children's programs, persuading Pomeranz to join him. In 1964, Pomeranz established Spectrum Films, an editing service for independents. Over the next 45 years it became a mecca for Australian and overseas filmmaking post-production.
David Elfick, a film producer, says that before there were any film development corporations, there was Pomeranz. He supported surf moviemakers such as Bob Evans, Paul Witzig and Albert Falzon with facilities, finance and editing. Spectrum became the school for emerging filmmakers.
In 1971 the feature film Stockade ignited a political and commercial battle that nearly ruined Spectrum but galvanised the community. Australian cinemas generated about $85 million annual income for the United States industry, tax-free, because the US distributors and exhibitors claimed that their earnings here only met the costs of making prints for Australia. Stockade was a dramatic musical about the Eureka Stockade, with story and lyrics by Cook. Harry Kippax, the Herald critic, hailed it.
With basic funding from the fledgling Australian Film Development Corporation, Cook adapted the stage script. Pomeranz would direct, edit, post-produce and invest in the film. Rod Mullinar, Max Cullen, Sue Hollywood and Michelle Fawdon were cast. A distribution company undertook to exhibit it but the deal fell through. Exhibitors and distributors closed ranks, offering the identical deal, but not one the filmmakers would accept. Cook and Pomeranz argued that Australian audiences were to be denied seeing an Australian film about Eureka funded by AFDC. Stockade became a national political controversy.
Cook and Pomeranz eventually arranged for a premiere in the Orange Civic Centre. The NSW chief secretary, Eric Willis, raised health and safety issues and said that films could not be publicly screened within several hundred metres of cinemas. Pomeranz alleged that filmmakers were up against "slush funds" from America. The film, well reviewed, remained a costly outcast. It was premiered in Ballarat and screened in halls around Victoria. A nervous industry applauded.
The Eureka Stockade battle, though lost, liberated its successors.
The Australian industry flourished and at least a third of Australian films and overseas productions set in Australia have been post-produced at Spectrum. Film-makers using Spectrum included Peter Weir, Bruce Beresford, Gillian Armstrong, Jane Campion, Ian Barry and Phil Noyce. Films included Mission Impossible, Matrix, Newsfront and The Piano.
Hans married Margaret Jones-Owen. Their sons, Josh and Felix, followed him into the film industry; Margaret became a film reviewer.
After a heart transplant in 1994, he raised funds for St Vincent's Hospital and made information films for patients facing surgery. He was passionate about cricket, soccer and cryptic crosswords.
An agnostic, he was a fierce advocate of social justice and staunch defender of Israel, fearing that, for Jews, "one day it could all happen again". He was awarded a medal in the Order of Australia.
5. Kenneth Cook and the play Stockade:
Adrian Guthrie in his University of Wollongong thesis, here in pdf format, at time of writing, outlined the initial difficulties writer Kenneth Cook encountered in the first attempt to stage the musical:
...The other play scheduled for the 1970 Jane Street season was Stockade, commissioned from Kenneth Cook. It was plagued with difficulties which arose from a rigidly conventional playwright meeting a wildly unconventional performance group. The production did not survive to a public season at Jane Street, and this caused a controversy which the N I D A organisers met with a disgruntled public silence. The difficulties lay in the heart ofthe Jane Street project which had been set up as an 'experimental theatre', but was organised along very formal lines. Authors were commissioned to write plays for Jane Street; however, in the hands of (Rex) Cramphorn and the members of the Performance Syndicate, these were scripts that were treated for development...
...The workshop of the script titled Stockade, by Kenneth Cook, failed to come to a public performance and was withdrawn by the author who felt that no respect was given to his text.
6. The Play's Music:
With the film not available, the best clue to the music in it and the musical play comes from the LP sleeve notes (CAMS-161), which describes the recorded songs this way:
The Cross of the South: The story of the Eureka Stockade in ballad form, giving the generally accepted historical version. This song occurs several times in various forms during the play and is used to illustrate the difference between things as they were thought to be and as they probably were (for lyrics to this song, see this site's pdf of music credits);
Ballarat and Bendigo: A rollicking song of the gold fields setting the scene into which men plunged hoping to make their fortunes;
Eureka Lead: A sad song of the gold fields setting out the usual plight of men who took the idea of "Ballarat and Bendigo" seriously, but found that the reality was a very different thing from the dream;
The Trooper's Song: The song of the trooper police, depicting their dream of violent militarism whose contribution to the tragedy of Eureka is only equalled by the miners' violent romanticism;
There Comes a Time: The rousing call to action when the miners finally decide to build the stockade. There comes a time in a man's life, the song suggests, when violent and dangerous action is the only course open to him. The point of the play is that this is the time to go home, take an aspirin and forget all about it;
I Saw a Man: Illustrating the utter futility of war in general and used in the play to depict the futility of the little war at Eureka in particular;
I Can See the Troopers Coming: Sung by the sentry as he sees the trooper police charging the stockade for the first time;
The Victory Song: Sung by the people in the stockade when the troopers fall back after the first attack;
Red Poppies: The lament of a girl for her lover killed in the Stockade. This is used ironically in the play in that her lover was killed by a foolish accident. He is nonetheless seen as the first martyr of Eureka and his death is used to stiffen the miners to resist the last great attack;
Have You Drums There?: The last song in the play. The stockade has fallen. Twenty-nine of the miners are dead. Their leader, Peter Lalor, is wounded. One of the trooper officers appears on the Stockade and he and Peter Lalor confront each other for the last time. As the song ends the officer raises his sword and kisses the hilt. Peter Lalor laconically salutes. It is the recognition by the two remotely sane men in the whole affair that it should have happened otherwise.
The LP sleeve provides these details regarding the timings:
Finally, while the information is only applicable to the LP release, it's worth noting the sleeve account of the group Black Plus Red, which performed the songs on the LP:
Black Plus Red, the singing group featured on this album originally started as a duet. Robert Dean and Mel Rawlinson adopted the name when they designed stage costumes in these colours for their singing act.
The two girls, singing sisters Denise and Clare McNamara joined when Bob heard them singing in a talent quest and asked them would they care to join and form a quartet. The girls were agreeable and thus "Black Plus Red" was formed in its present image. Their singing of their original song "H.M. Bark Endeavour" on a television quest resulted in them signing a recording contract with RCA and their first record was a special album built arond "H.M. Bark Endeavour" to commemorate the Captain Cook Bi-Centenary year.
At this time Mel Rawlinson left the group and Lin Lewis took his place as a singer-guitarist, to form the group which you now hear perform so ably in this presentation of the songs from "Stockade".

Hillary Clinton once said of abortion that it is a "tragic" decision for women. 40 year after the passage of Roe V. Wade, Sunsara Taylor of the group Stop Patriarchy wrote of Hilary's statement: Bullshit. You know what is tragic? Forced motherhood! You know what else is tragic. Rape is tragic. Pregnancies that result from rape are tragic. Being able to have an abortion to prevent women from being double-penalized by these tragedies, to prevent women from having to foreclose their lives and futures and dreams, to prevent women from being further trapped in poverty or abuse, this is POSITIVE AND LIBERATING!
Which brings us to the unfolding, as reported by Laura Basset at the Huffington Post, that a Republican lawmaker in New Mexico introduced a bill on Wednesday that would legally require victims of rape to carry their pregnancies to term in order to use the fetus as evidence for a sexual assault trial.

US Secretary of State Madeline Albright once described them as the "New Breed" of African leaders. Uganda's ruler General Yoweri Museveni was one of them. In Portrait of a Despot, the contention, a very passionate one at that, is that Gen. Museveni is no more than a "Modern Despot"; a "slightly more sophisticated version of Idi Amin"; the type who lives and thrives in that grey area of politics beyond which you either become a democrat or an autocratic dictator.
The book also examines how Modern Despots like George Bush Jnr, Yoweri Museveni, Meles Zenawi, Zine El-Abidine Ben Ali, Tony Blair, and many others who might be thriving quietly in your own country use Deceit, Public Relations, Patronage, Nepotism, Disenfranchisement, and above all, the Law as a tool of political oppression".
With solid evidence from and or reference to Gen. Museveni's twenty five years of egregious rule in Uganda, the book demonstrates how the mighty "Portrait of a Despot" hanging menacingly over every strand of life in a given country can have disastrous long term consequences on democracy, good governance, and the development of State institutions. Finally, it brings you to the "Scene of Crime" in some truly epic political battles between President Museveni and the country's opposition parties and leaders.
The Second Coming of the Devil March 2nd 2007. It's just after dusk, around 20:00hrs East African Standard Time. We are at Sippers Bar in Hurlingham; one of Nairobi's many entertainment districts! Soothing African songs of local and regional origin are ruling the airwaves here tonight. The volume is just perfect. And who are the other guests in the house tonight? Well, I would say it was a very healthy "united nations" mix. Ultra skinny-chain-smoking and slightly crazy behaving young African girls of average beauty in the company of greying pony-tail wearing European men; you know, the type of men who, thanks to the Western media, would perfectly fit many people's imagination of a typical paedophile or sex tourist. On the other hand, you could see middle aged black men [mostly Kenyans] with loosened neck ties, looking big and twiddling nonstop with their latest gadgets; just to impress the obedient, shy looking and thoroughly intimidated girls sitting next to them. By this time of the evening, many are probably on their third or fourth bottle of beer, wine or cocktail glass. It is also unimaginable that the true "Kenyan Institution" that is "Nyama Choma" {Swahili for roast meat} will have survived this sitting. All in all, it is a very ordinary evening in Nairobi town, Kenya's capital city. Approximately 600miles to the west of Kenya, the atmosphere in the suburbs of Uganda's capital city Kampala is probably no different from Nairobi's. Beer, roast pork, giggling girls and music in the background was what I could imagine and hear when an ecstatic sounding Lawyer, a former colleague, decided to drop me a line to break news of the momentous events of the day; a different kind of day. With more than just a slight touch of triumphalism and defiance coming through his voice, he said, "...Counsel, we have laid down our tools in protest. Enough is enough". Before I even got the opportunity to ask why they had laid down their {legal practice} tools, my friend, like a man possessed by some kind of "Eddie Murphy" talking demon, had already launched straight into the details of what had transpired at the High of Uganda the previous day; March 1st 2007. March 1st 2007 was of course "Black Thursday"; the day when, for the second time in less than two years, over fifty fully armed State security personnel stormed the High Court to re-arrest some of the PRA suspects who had just been granted bail. The only difference was that this time round, the media chose to describe the High Court invaders as "…men dressed in police uniform". And who could blame them; because ever since the infamous Black Mamba Urban Hit Squad turned up at the High Court poorly disguised in police uniform, no one could be sure anymore that men dressed as police officers were actually police officers. In other words, trust in the Uganda Police Force as an institution of State had completely broken down; thanks to a despot's decision to abuse the independence and integrity of an institution that should have been totally impartial. Sad; really sad! But as I said, that was the second invasion. The first time the High Court was raided by the Black Mambas was on the 16th of November 2005. That very sad incident had prompted Justice James Munange Ogola, Uganda's Principle Judge no less, to famously declare that "...the siege constituted a very grave and heinous violation of the twin principles of the rule of law and Judicial independence [and] sent a chilling feeling down the spine of the Judiciary, and left the legal fraternity and the general public agape with disbelief and wonderment". The Second Coming of the Devil, as I prefer to call it, had also elicited a most epic poem from the same Principle Judge. It was a poem in which the Judge, as a "witness" this time, [what an irony] explained with poetic eloquence what had transpired at his sacred seat of judgement. That poem should be available in the public domain. I say hunt it down and read it as if your very life depended on it. You will not regret it. Now back to Nairobi's Sippers Bar on the night of March 2nd 2007. It is just over fifteen months since the first siege on the High Court. In a strange if slightly tragic coincidence, unbeknown to the friend calling from Kampala to give me the "breaking news" about Lawyers downing their tools, Samuel Nathan Okiring, a very close friend who I can't even bear to call "an ex-PRA suspect", had just arrived from Uganda to meet me. In fact, he was seated right next to me; narrating the gruesome story of his horrendous torture at the hands of almost certainly the very State security operatives who had just raided the High Court to re-arrest his former co-accused PRA suspects. The mixture of emotions I went through at that material time is still difficult to explain. In fact, it is impossible to explain; not if you are or were in my position. Sam Okiring, the "Attorney General of the Rebels", [as one Kampala friend once called him jokingly] was totally unaware that I was now faced with a very uncomfortable situation; a dilemma in fact. Here was a visibly traumatised friend, a great friend, a brother to me in every sense, sitting very humbly in front me, not knowing what the Kampala friend on the other end of the telephone line had just told me. In fact, to show you how traumatised Okiring was, I will tell you a very sad little story.
Charles Okwir is a Ugandan Lawyer and Journalist. Over the last ten years, he has been a prolific writer on matters concerning the rule of law, good governance, democracy, and the protection of human rights in Uganda and Africa. His articles have been published in several Ugandan newspapers including The Daily Monitor, The Observer, The Uganda Correspondent online publication, and on his own blog "A Twin-Peaks View of Ugandan Politics". He has also been a regular political commentator on VOA's Straight Talk Africa programme and on a number of BBC outlets including the World Service and domestic programmes in the United Kingdom. As a political activist, he has delivered papers at and addressed several political conferences and workshops in Uganda, South Africa, Sweden, France and the United Kingdom. Portrait of a Despot is the ultimate interfusion of his legal expertise and analysis, his journalistic skills, and his decade long political experiences.

Megatron being Megatron: We talked Sunday about the historical significance of Calvin Johnson's season, and here's the play of the day Megatron pulled off against the Indianapolis Colts. Sometimes, it just isn't fair -- especially when the Indianapolis Colts decided to single-cover Johnson on the sideline, and Johnson responded with this ridiculous one-handed catch.
Luck to Avery for the Win: That said, Johnson walked off the field with a 35-33 loss, because Andrew Luck -- who'd had a pretty awful game otherwise -- nailed this 14-yard touchdown throw to Donnie Avery with time running out.
Golden Tate beats the Bears: Perhaps Tate is inspired by the exploits of his Notre Dame Fighting Irish, but the second-year receiver has been on quite a tear of late. But this late touchdown against the Chicago Bears was a pretty impressive physical effort.
Sidney Rice wins in overtime, gets clocked for his trouble: Ouch! Seattle's main receiver will feel this one for a while. He took this pass in from Russell Wilson in overtime and broke the plane for the winning score, but really paid for it when Bears safety Major Wright blew him up.
Adrian Peterson does it all: Maybe AD and Larry Fitzgerald can get together in the offseason and start a support group for extraordinary players saddled with quarterbacks who are anything but. On this 82-yard TD run, and all through a 210-yard day on the ground, Peterson put forth an amazing effort that was wasted by Christian Ponder's two red zone picks.

This afternoon we visited the House of Joshua (HoJ) to catch up with some of the residents there including Niki, Marian and Ivanka as well as ex-residents Tsetsi and Iva. If you don't konw anything about the Trussell Trust's House of Opportunity Programme (of which HoJ is a part) then click here to find out more.
The team had a lot of fun with the HoJer's down at the local stream; cooling of and messing about. The residents at HoJ really look forward to seeing the youth team each year and it is special for both sides to get together and just have a good time. the river may not be the cleanest but as long as you don't swallow it all will be well- as the video shows...
Tomorrow it's another early start as the youth team catch a 4am bus, fill it with travel-sick prone kids and enjoy a seven hour trip in the heat to the seaside. I so wish I could be with them but I have other stuff to do so I'll let them tell you all about it from tomorrow.

Yes. It costs $100 one way and $300 the other.
Student or Learner
Carrying goods by train costs three times more than carrying by barge.
Does 'three times more' have the same meaning as 'three times as much'?
Yes. It costs $100 one way and $300 the other.
There is a lot of confusion about this. The safest thing is always to use three times as much as. If somebody says to you three times more than, ask them to confirm the actual figure.
Three times as much would likely be 300%, whereas three times more may signify 400%.
'Unfortunately', because it can lead to confusion and misunderstanding. That's why I made the suggestion I did in post #3.
three times as much = 300%.
four times as much = 400%.
Three times more = ? (It's all very well for Konungursvia and me to say it is 400%, but if others think it is 300% then there is a problem).
Last edited by 5jj; 17-Dec-2011 at 21:15. Reason: typo
Wouldn't that be an argument for simply not using it in front of non-mathematicians rather than to pretend that it means the same as "three times as much" if, and only if, the author intends it that way?
The problem is that, eventually, language tends towards the lowest common denominator unless there's a very good reason for it not to. The LCD here is that they mean the same because, as you point out, figuring the difference is beyond most people. We use language for communication, so even if we have to use completely incorrect terms to get a point across, that's what's necessary.
If a patient has only 10% chance of recovering, and he's visited the next day by his doctor who says, pleased, that he's improved 100% overnight, the patient (if I know patients) will NOT get the message that he still has only a 20% survival chance.

OSHA News Release – Region 4
U.S. Department of Labor
Region 4 News Release: 06-1283-ATL (151)
Date: July 25, 2006
Contact: Luis Santiago Dan Fuqua
Phone: (954) 424-0242 (404) 562-2078
Proposed Penalties Total $154,800
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has cited Aleluya Roofing Co., Miami, with alleged safety and health violations following a fatal construction accident. The agency is proposing penalties totaling $154,800.
"This horrific accident could have been avoided if the employer had followed required safety procedures," said Luis R. Santiago, OSHA's area director in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. "Tragedies like this simply should not happen."
The fatality occurred Jan. 25, 2006, when an employee fell from the roof of a six-story Abbott Avenue building in Miami and was impaled on the pickets of a wrought-iron fence. The worker had been assisting the operator of a trolley hoist when the rear of the machine lifted up, causing the machine and the employee to fall to the street below.
OSHA issued one willful citation with a maximum $70,000 proposed penalty for the employer's failure to comply with the manufacturer's operating specifications for the trolley hoist. A willful citation is issued when an employer has shown an intentional disregard of, or plain indifference to, the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act. An additional willful citation with a proposed penalty of $44,000 was issued because fire exits were reportedly fastened closed with lumber and blocked on four separate occasions.
Aleluya Roofing also received 11 serious citations with proposed penalties totaling $40,800. These citations included the failure to do the following: provide fall protection in a hoist area and at the edge of a flat roof; train employees to recognize fall hazards; and protect employees from an array of dangers.
OSHA personnel issues serious citations when there is a substantial probability that death or serious physical harm could result, and that the employer knew or should have known of the hazards.
The company has 15 days to contest the citations and proposed penalties before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission. Staff from the Fort Lauderdale OSHA office located at Jacaranda Executive Court, Building H-100, 8040 Peters Road, phone (954) 424-0242, conducted the inspection.
Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, employers are responsible for providing a safe and healthful workplace for their employees. OSHA's role is to assure the safety and health of America's working men and women by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual process improvement in workplace safety and health. For more information, visit www.osha.gov.
U.S. Labor Department (DOL) releases are accessible on the Internet at www.dol.gov. The information in this news release will be made available in alternate format upon request (large print, Braille, audio tape or disc) from the COAST office. Please specify which news release when placing your request. Call (202) 693-7765 or TTY (202) 693-7755.

CButtonSSL has now been used extensively in a real product and has such has been through the mill a fair bit on the testing side. Thankfully this has given me time to find and fix these problems, too.
This latest version includes fixes for a GDI resource leak (which I must thank Dieter Hammer for finding), several changes to fix button state drawing problems (which I must thank Eugene Pustovyt for pointing out some of the more obscure ones) and also fixes a major bug with release builds.
The problem was that in a release build that included a CButtonSSL checkbox whose state was altered using SetCheck the application would crash. After enormous amounts of mostly fruitless debugging I eventually found a way of reproducing the problem consistently, with the help of Alvaro Mendez. Once I'd got to this stage I beginning to despait , but thankfully Joe Newcomer came to my rescue and pointed out the error of my ways. The OnSetCheck handler didn't define both of the required parameters for an ON_COMMAND handler. So, two parameters pushed on the stack, only one popped off!
I'd like to thank everybody that has helped me out with this round of bug fixes, hopefully there won't be (m)any more.
It seems that no matter how hard you try, you just can't get enough done in one day! Trying to juggle work, play and family isn't easy! However, at last I have got round to updating this article. So, what's new?
COddButton
Because there's so much been added I haven't had chance to test it all extensively, especially with respect to the menu functions. If there any problems, please let me know (prefereably with a fix ;)).
The change to inherit from COddButton has changed the handling of the standard button styles. The use of COddButton::PreSubclassWindow means that the control type is determined from the initial styles set in the dialog editor. So now you cannot set the Owner Draw style, otherwise it won't work properly.
The handling of the default style is also provided entirely by COddButton now, though as mentioned above, I have made one or two changes to handle radio buttons as well.
The first change was to the constructor to make m_bCanBeDefault TRUE initially. The second change was to the WM_GETDLGCODE handler, COddButton::OnGetDlgCode (). The function now handles the code for radio buttons as follows:
m_bCanBeDefault TRUE
COddButton::OnGetDlgCode ()
UINT COddButton::OnGetDlgCode() { UINT nCode = CButton::OnGetDlgCode(); // tell the system if we want default state handling // (losing default state always allowed) UINT nType = GetControlType (); if (BS_RADIOBUTTON == (BS_RADIOBUTTON & nType) || BS_AUTORADIOBUTTON == (BS_AUTORADIOBUTTON & nType)) { nCode |= DLGC_RADIOBUTTON; } else { if (m_bCanBeDefault || m_bDefault) nCode |= (m_bDefault ? DLGC_DEFPUSHBUTTON : DLGC_UNDEFPUSHBUTTON); } return nCode; }
It seems that Buttons are the flavour of the month at the moment and here's another. This button class is born out the need for a bitmap button with a menu drop-down on it, but as usual ended up being so much more!
I found Norm Almond's "Cool Push Menu Button" and Davide Calabro's CButtonST and wanted to combine the two. Along the way I came across the BS_OWNERDRAW problem and tried to find my own way around it. Fortunately Paolo Messina and Jerzy Kaczorowski solved it for me with their COddButton.
The class I have come up with draws mainly from these sources, but also some others and my thanks must go out to all those people who have helped me out in the Visual C++ forum. It has taken me so long to complete this and I have been a bit too relaxed with the documentation so if there is some code that you lay claim to and want it recognised then please let me know and I'll update it.
The full documentation for the class follows. I hope this is sufficient because it took me ages to write ;)
Overview | Class Members | Styles | Known Problems
The CButtonSSL is a feature rich extension to the normal CButton. It adds flat appearance, a menu drop-down, bitmap or icon images, text and image alignment, control over the button colour, multiline tooltip, correct default button handling, control over the cursor and the ability to specifiy a URL to link to.
CButtonSSL provides owner-drawn functionality for check boxes, radio buttons and push buttons. A CButtonSSL object can be created for any of these.
A CButtonSSL object can have separate images for the button's up, over, down and disabled states. If an image is not specified for the disabled state a disabled images is created from the up image, which must always be specified. Additionally, the button colour and text colour can be different for the button's up, over and down states.
Creation of CButtonSSL object is the same as for a CButton object. They may be created from a dialog template or directly in your code. If they are created from a dialog template it is not necessary to call SubclassDlgItem if the DDX_Control entry exists for the variable in the DoDataExchange function of your dialog. However the button is created it must not have the BS_OWNERDRAW style set.
Following construction the button object's appearance should be initialised. The button's image(s) and the image alignment can be set using the Image Functions. The button text font and alignment can be altered using the Text Functions. The button's colours can be set using one of the Colour Functions and the button cursor, tooltip or URL can be set using one of the Miscellaneous Functions. If the button object is a checkbox then the button's check state can be set or retrieved using the Check Box Functions.
Windows notification messages are sent by the button control to the parent for CButtonSSL objects in the same manner as for CButton objects.
If you create a CButtonSSL object from a dialog resource, the CButtonSSL object is automatically destroyed when the user closes the dialog box.

CButtonSSL ();
Constructs a CButtonSSL object. The button style is initially set to SSL_BS_FLAT, the image is initially aligned using SSL_IMAGE_TOP and SSL_IMAGE_LEFT and the text is initially aligned using SSL_TEXT_CENTER and SSL_TEXT_VCENTER.
void SetSSLButtonStyle (UINT nStyle);
nStyleSpecifies the button style.
Changes the style of a button.
Use the GetSSLButtonStyle member function to retrieve the button style.
See Also CButtonSSL::GetSSLButtonStyle
UINT GetSSLButtonStyle ();
Returns the button styles for this button object.
Returns only the SSL_BS_ style values, not any of the window styles.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonStyle
BOOL SetSSLButtonBitmap (UINT nResourceID, COLORREF crMask = SSL_MASK);
Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0.
nResourceIDThe resource ID for the bitmap to be added.
crMaskThe colour to be used in the bitmap as a transparency mask. This is SSL_MASK by default.
SSL_MASK
This function specifies a single bitmap to use for all states. The bitmap is copied into an image list and then treated as an icon thereafter. When the button is in the disabled state a disabled image is created from the specified bitmap.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonBitmaps, CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonIcon, CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonIcons
BOOL SetSSLButtonBitmaps (UINT nUpID, COLORREF crUpMask, UINT nOverID = 0, COLORREF crOverMask = SSL_MASK, UINT nDownID = 0, COLORREF crDownMask = SSL_MASK, UINT nDisabledID = 0, COLORREF crDisabledMask = SSL_MASK);
nUpIDThe resource ID for the bitmap to be used for the up state.
crUpMaskThe colour to be used in the up bitmap as a transparency mask. This is SSL_MASK by default.
nOverIDThe resource ID for the bitmap to be used for the over state. This is zero by default.
crOverMaskThe colour to be used in the over bitmap as a transparency mask. This is SSL_MASK by default.
nDownIDThe resource ID for the bitmap to be used for the down state. This is zero by default.
crDownMaskThe colour to be used in the down bitmap as a transparency mask. This is SSL_MASK by default.
nDisabledIDThe resource ID for the bitmap to be used for the disabled state. This is zero by default.
crDisabledMaskThe colour to be used in the disabled bitmap as a transparency mask. This is SSL_MASK by default.
The up bitmap must be defined, however, a resource ID of zero may be defined for any state image that is not required. If no bitmap is specified for the over state then the up image is used instead. If no bitmap is specified for the down state then the over image is used instead (if this was not specified then the up image will be used).
If a bitmap is specified for the disabled state then this will be used in full colour. If it is not then the up image will be used to create a normal disabled image.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonBitmap, CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonIcon, CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonIcons
BOOL SetSSLButtonIcon (UINT nResourceID);
nResourceIDThe resource ID for the icon to be added.
This function specifies a single icon to use for all states. The icon is copied into an image list. When the button is in the disabled state a disabled image is created from the specified icon.
The transparency defined in the source icon is preserved.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonBitmap, CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonBitmaps, CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonIcons
BOOL SetSSLButtonIcons (UINT nUpID, UINT nOverID = 0, UINT nDownID = 0, UINT nDisabledID = 0);
nUpIDThe resource ID for the icon to be used for the up state.
nOverIDThe resource ID for the icon to be used for the over state. This is zero by default.
nDownIDThe resource ID for the icon to be used for the down state. This is zero by default.
nDisabledIDThe resource ID for the icon to be used for the disabled state. This is zero by default.
The up icon must be defined, however, a resource ID of zero may be defined for any state image that is not required. If no icon is specified for the over state then the up image is used instead. If no icon is specified for the down state then the over image is used instead (if this was not specified then the up image will be used).
If an icon is specified for the disabled state then this will be used in full colour. If it is not then the up image will be used to create a normal disabled image.
The transparency of the source icon is preserved.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonBitmap, CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonBitmaps, CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonIcon
void SetSSLImageAlign (UINT nImageAlign);
nImageAlignSpecifies the image alignment style.
A single horizontal and vertical alignment style may be specified, though there are no checks within the function to ensure that this is the case.
See Also CButtonSSL::GetSSLImageAlign
UINT GetSSLImageAlign ();
The button image alignment style.
This function returns only the SSL_IMAGE_ style values.
SSL_IMAGE_
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLImageAlign

See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLTextAlign
BOOL SetSSLButtonFont (LPCTSTR lpszFaceName, int nSizePoints = 8, BOOL bUnderline = FALSE, BOOL bBold = FALSE, BOOL bStrikeOut = FALSE, BOOL bItalic = FALSE);
BOOL SetSSLButtonFont (CFont& font);
lpszFaceNameThe font face name.
nSizePointsThe font size in points. The default value is 8.
bUnderlineSpecifies whether the font is to be underlined. A nonzero value sets the font to be underlined. A 0 value sets the font not to be underlined. The font is not underlined by default.
bBoldSpecifies whether the font weight is to be bold or not. A nonzero value sets the font to be bold. A 0 value sets the font weight to be normal. The font weight is normal by default.
bStrikeOutSpecifies whether the font is to be struck out or not. A nonzero value sets the font to be struck out. A 0 value sets the font not to be struck out. The font is not struck out by default.
bItalicSpecifies whether the font style is to be italic or not. A nonzero value sets the font style to be italic. A 0 value sets the font style to be normal. The font style is normal by default.
fontA CFont object allowing full control over the appearance of the font.
The first version of this function provides simple control over the main aspects of the button text font. If required the second version can be used to provide full control over the appearance of the button text font.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLTextAlign, CButtonSSL::GetSSLTextAlign
void SetSSLDefaultColors (BOOL bRedraw = TRUE);
bRedrawSpecifies whether the button is to be redrawn. A nonzero value redraws the button. A 0 value does not redraw the button. The button is redrawn by default.
Use this function to reset the button colours to their default values. The default values are the system colours COLOR_BTNFACE and COLOR_BTNTEXT.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLColor, CButtonSSL::GetSSLColor
BOOL SetSSLColor (BYTE byColorIndex, COLORREF crColor, BOOL bRedraw = TRUE);
byColorIndexSpecifies the colour to be set. This is one of the colour values defined in the colour enumeration, except SSL_MAX_COLORS.
crColorA COLORREF value specifying the colour to set.
Use this function to set the button face or text colour for a particular button state.
See Also CButtonSSL::GetSSLColor, CButtonSSL::SetSSLDefaultColors
BOOL GetSSLColor (BYTE byColorIndex, COLORREF* pcrColor);
Nonzero if byColorIndex is less than SSL_MAX_COLORS; otherwise 0.
SSL_MAX_COLORS
byColorIndexSpecifies the colour to be retrieved. This is one of the colour values defined in the colour enumeration, except SSL_MAX_COLORS.
pcrColorA pointer to a COLORREF value to be receive the requested colour value.
Use this function to retrieve the current button face or text colour for a particular button state.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLColor, CButtonSSL::SetSSLDefaultColors
void SetSSLCheck (int nCheck, BOOL bRedraw = TRUE);
nCheckSpecifies the check state . This parameter can be either 0 (unchecked) or 1 (checked).
Sets or resets the check state of a check box. This member function has no effect on a push button.
See Also CButtonSSL::GetSSLCheck
int GetSSLCheck ();
The return value is either 0 (unchecked) or 1 (checked).
Retrieves the check state of a radio button or check box.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLCheck
BOOL SetSSLButtonMenu (UINT nResourceID);
BOOL SetSSLButtonMenu (LPCTSTR lpszResourceName);
nResourceIDSpecifies the menu ID of the menu resource to load.
lpszResourceNamePoints to a null-terminated string that contains the name of the menu resource to load.
Both of these functions use the first submenu in the supplied menu, assuming that it is a popup menu. For example, create a menu resource in the resource editor. Set the first menu item to be pop-up. Add subitems below this to be shown on the menu button.
The Windows message handling for the menu item selections must be handled by the parent, there is no mechanism for CButtonSSL to handle them.
UINT CheckSSLMenuItem (UINT nIDCheckItem, UINT nCheck = MF_CHECKED);
The previous state of the item: MF_CHECKED or MF_UNCHECKED, or 0xFFFFFFFF (MF_DOES_NOT_EXIST) if the menu item did not exist.
nIDCheckItem Specifies the menu item to be checked, as determined by nCheck.
nCheck Specifies how to check the menu item and how to determine the item's position in the menu. The nCheck parameter can be a combination of MF_CHECKED or MF_UNCHECKED with MF_BYPOSITION or MF_BYCOMMAND flags. These flags can be combined by using the bitwise OR operator. They have the following meanings:
Adds check marks to or removes check marks from menu items in the pop-up menu. The nIDCheckItem parameter specifies the item to be modified.
The nIDCheckItem parameter may identify a pop-up menu item as well as a menu item. No special steps are required to check a pop-up menu item. Top-level menu items cannot be checked. A pop-up menu item must be checked by position since it does not have a menu-item identifier associated with it.
BOOL CheckSSLMenuRadioItem (UINT nIDFirst, UINT nIDLast, UINT nIDItem, UINT nFlags);
Return Value
nIDFirst Specifies (as an ID or offset, depending on the value of nFlags) the first menu item in the radio button group.
nIDLast Specifies (as an ID or offset, depending on the value of nFlags) the last menu item in the radio button group.
nIDItem Specifies (as an ID or offset, depending on the value of nFlags) the item in the group which will be checked with a radio button.
nFlags Specifies interpretation of nIDFirst, nIDLast, and nIDItem in the following way:
UINT EnableSSLMenuItem (UINT nIDEnableItem, UINT nEnable);
Previous state (MF_DISABLED, MF_ENABLED, or MF_GRAYED), –1 if not valid or MF_DOES_NOT_EXIST if menu not initialised.
nIDEnableItem Specifies the menu item to be enabled, as determined by nEnable. This parameter can specify pop-up menu items as well as standard menu items.
nEnable Specifies the action to take. It can be a combination of MF_DISABLED, MF_ENABLED, or MF_GRAYED, with MF_BYCOMMAND or MF_BYPOSITION. These values can be combined by using the bitwise OR operator. These values have the following meanings:
Enables, disables, or dims a menu item.
Using the MF_BYPOSITION value requires an application to use the correct CMenu. If the CMenu of the menu bar is used, a top-level menu item (an item in the menu bar) is affected. To set the state of an item in a pop-up or nested pop-up menu by position, an application must specify the CMenu of the pop-up menu.
When an application specifies the MF_BYCOMMAND flag, Windows checks all pop-up menu items that are subordinate to the CMenu; therefore, unless duplicate menu items are present, using the CMenu of the menu bar is sufficient.
UINT GetSSLMenuItemCount () const;
The number of items in the menu if the function is successful; otherwise –1. MF_DOES_NOT_EXIST will be returned if the menu is not initialised.
Determines the number of items in a pop-up or top-level menu.
UINT GetSSLMenuItemID (int nPos) const;
The item ID for the specified item in a pop-up menu if the function is successful. If the specified item is a pop-up menu (as opposed to an item within the pop-up menu), the return value is –1. If nPos corresponds to a SEPARATOR menu item, the return value is 0. If the menu is not yet initialised the value MF_DOES_NOT_EXIST will be returned.
nPos Specifies the position (zero-based) of the menu item whose ID is being retrieved.
Obtains the menu-item identifier for a menu item located at the position defined by nPos.
UINT GetSSLMenuState (UINT nID, UINT nFlags);
The value MF_DOES_NOT_EXIST if the specified item does not exist or the menu is uninitialised. If nId identifies a pop-up menu, the high-order byte contains the number of items in the pop-up menu and the low-order byte contains the menu flags associated with the pop-up menu. Otherwise the return value is a mask (Boolean OR) of the values from the following list (this mask describes the status of the menu item that nId identifies):
nID Specifies the menu item ID, as determined by nFlags.
nID Specifies the nature of nID. It can be one of the following values:
Returns the status of the specified menu item or the number of items in a pop-up menu.
int GetSSLMenuString (UINT nIDItem, LPTSTR lpString, int nMaxCount, UINT nFlags);
int GetSSLMenuString (UINT nIDItem, CString& rString, UINT nFlags);
Specifies the actual number of bytes copied to the buffer, not including the null terminator.
nIDItem Specifies the integer identifier of the menu item or the offset of the menu item in the menu, depending on the value of nFlags.
lpString Points to the buffer that is to receive the label.
rString A reference to a CString object that is to receive the copied menu string.
nMaxCount Specifies the maximum length (in bytes) of the label to be copied. If the label is longer than the maximum specified in nMaxCount, the extra characters are truncated.
nFlags Specifies the interpretation of the nIDItem parameter. It can be one of the following values:
Copies the label of the specified menu item to the specified buffer.
The nMaxCount parameter should be one larger than the number of characters in the label to accommodate the null character that terminates a string.
BOOL GetSSLMenuItemInfo (UINT nIDItem, LPMENUITEMINFO lpMenuItemInfo, BOOL ByPos = FALSE);
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero. If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, use the Win32 function GetLastError, as described in the Platform SDK.
nIDItem Identifier or position of the menu item to get information about. The meaning of this parameter depends on the value of ByPos.
lpMenuItemInfo A pointer to a MENUITEMINFO, as described in the Platform SDK, that contains information about the menu.
ByPos Value specifying the meaning of nIDItem. By default, ByPos is FALSE, which indicates that nIDItem is a menu item identifier. If ByPos is not set to FALSE, it indicates a menu item position.
This member function implements the behavior of the of the Win32 function GetMenuItemInfo, as described in the Platform SDK.
Note that in the MFC implementation of GetMenuItemInfo, you do not use a handle to a menu.
BOOL ModifySSLMenu (UINT nPosition, UINT nFlags, UINT nIDNewItem = 0, LPCTSTR lpszNewItem = NULL);
BOOL ModifySSLMenu (UINT nPosition, UINT nFlags, UINT nIDNewItem, const CBitmap* pBmp);
Nonzero if the function is successful; otherwise 0.
nPosition Specifies the menu item to be changed. The nFlags parameter can be used to interpret nPosition in the following ways:
nFlags Specifies how nPosition is interpreted and gives information about the changes to be made to the menu item.
nIDNewItem Specifies either the command ID of the modified menu item or, if nFlags is set to MF_POPUP, the menu handle (HMENU) of a pop-up menu. The nIDNewItem parameter is ignored (not needed) if nFlags is set to MF_SEPARATOR.
lpszNewItem Specifies the content of the new menu item. The nFlags parameter can be used to interpret lpszNewItem in the following ways:
pBmp Points to a CBitmap object that will be used as the menu item.
Changes an existing menu item at the position specified by nPosition. The application specifies the new state of the menu item by setting values in nFlags. If this function replaces a pop-up menu associated with the menu item, it destroys the old pop-up menu and frees the memory used by the pop-up menu.
When nIDNewItem specifies a pop-up menu, it becomes part of the menu in which it is inserted. If that menu is destroyed, the inserted menu will also be destroyed. An inserted menu should be detached from a CMenu object to avoid conflict.
BOOL RemoveSSLMenu (UINT nPosition, UINT nFlags);
nFlags Specifies how nPosition is interpreted.
Deletes a menu item with an associated pop-up menu from the menu. It does not destroy the handle for a pop-up menu, so the menu can be reused.
BOOL SetSSLMenuItemBitmaps (UINT nPosition, UINT nFlags, const CBitmap* pBmpUnchecked, const CBitmap* pBmpChecked);
pBmpUnchecked Specifies the bitmap to use for menu items that are not checked.
pBmpChecked Specifies the bitmap to use for menu items that are checked.
Associates the specified bitmaps with a menu item. Whether the menu item is checked or unchecked, Windows displays the appropriate bitmap next to the menu item.
If either pBmpUnchecked or pBmpChecked is NULL, then Windows displays nothing next to the menu item for the corresponding attribute. If both parameters are NULL, Windows uses the default check mark when the item is checked and removes the check mark when the item is unchecked.
When the menu is destroyed, these bitmaps are not destroyed; the application must destroy them.
The Windows GetMenuCheckMarkDimensions function retrieves the dimensions of the default check mark used for menu items. The application uses these values to determine the appropriate size for the bitmaps supplied with this function. Get the size, create your bitmaps, then set them.
BOOL SetSSLButtonCursor (UINT nResourceID);
nResourceIDSpecifies the cursor ID of the cursor resource to load.
The cursor specified will be shown when the mouse is over any part of the button, including the drop-down arrow. The cursor will revert to it's previous state when the drop-arrow is clicked for navigation of the menu.
void SetSSLButtonToolTip (LPCTSTR lpszTipText, BOOL bActivate = TRUE);
void SetSSLButtonToolTip (UINT nResourceID, BOOL bActivate = TRUE);
lpszTipTextPoints to a null-terminated string containing the text to be displayed on the tooltip.
nResourceIDSpecifies the resource ID of a string in the string table to be dispalyed on the tooltip.
bActivateSpecifies whether the tool tip is to be activated or deactivated. The tool tip is activated by default.
When the tool tip is active (bActivate = TRUE), the tool tip information appears when the cursor hovered over the button; when it is inactive (bActivate = FALSE), the tool tip information does not appear, even when the cursor is hovered over the button.
void SetSSLButtonURL (LPCTSTR lpszURL);
lpszURLPoints to a null-terminated string containing the URL to be opened when the button is clicked.
Call this function to define a URL to be opened when the button is clicked. If a cursor has not already been defined for the button using SetSSLButtonCursor then this function attempts to load the hand cursor from WinHlp32.exe. This approach was detailed in Paul DiLascia's Jan 1998 MSJ article. If the runtime environment does not have WinHlp32.exe in the Windows directory then one can be defined and set using SetSSLButtonCursor.
See Also CButtonSSL::SetSSLButtonCursor
Only one horizontal and one vertical style should be set for the text alignment.
Only one horizontal and one vertical style should be set for the button image alignment.

Wanderers haven't kept a clean sheet this season and have only failed to score at leaders Sydney.
City finished their opening season in seventh (having previously existed as Melbourne Heart), which will have been regarded as a disappointment for a side that was backed by Manchester City and signed David Villa, but they've had a decent start to this campaign. The Wanderers have an identical W2-D1-L2 record to City and trail them only on goal difference as they look to get back to the form they showed in winning the 2014 AFC Champions League after their disastrous second-bottom finish last season.
After two defeats in their opening four home games – against Sydney and Adelaide – City were unbeaten in their remaining nine home matches last season with six wins and six clean sheets. This defensive toughness meant these games bucked the league trend for goals and five of their final nine home matches had fewer than two strikes. This season, however, both their home games had more than three goals and their last seven matches (five of which have been on the road) have actually seen both teams score.
The Wanderers had a dire W1-D1-L11 record on the road last season as they failed to keep a single clean sheet, a significant departure for a team that had lost just seven of 28 away matches in the previous two years combined. They look to be closer to that form this season as they've lost just one of their opening three away games, and that was a narrow 1-0 defeat against last season's runners-up Sydney, as they beat current third-place Newcastle Jets in their last away game, who had beaten City away the previous week.
Despite the improvement on the road, the Wanderers are yet to keep a clean sheet away since the start of last season, though they've lost only one of their last 15 trips by more than one goal and have only failed to score at leaders Sydney this season. City won three of their four home games against bottom-half finishers last season and their recent defeat against the Jets looks like something of an anomaly. Other than that their home form remains strong, with 7/5 on them winning against a Wanderers side that has been dreadful on the road looking a good price. However, City must play without key midfielder Aaron Mooy and with Robert Koren also not fit to start they may not have as much of an edge against a Wanderers squad that has no absences. Instead a safer bet looks to be backing goals at both ends.

y chromosome disordershave scientests found any disorders that are linked to the y chromosome? If they have could you tell me where I can get more info on it, 'cause last I heard they havn't.
A hangover IS the Wrath of Grapes!
replyI think I can find some desease cause by Y chromosome
This link is on human genome project, please try: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/proteme/ ( i don't know why I can't connect)
Up to now, only few Y-linked genes has been identified (holandric genes):
1. resesive gene "wt", causing membranes that appeared between fingers and toes (similar to the ones on frogs or ducks). Its allel, Wt, for normal condition. 2. resesive gene "hg", causing "porcupine man" (long, rigid hairs over the body). Its allel, Hg, for normal condition. 3. resesive gene "h", causing "hypertrichosis" (long hairs on auricles). Its allel, H, for normal condition. 4. genes controlling spermatogenesis 5. testis determining factor (TDF) 6. H-Y antigen 7. some genes for height

Environmental Justice: From Strategic Planning to Action
By Gary S. Guzy
What does it take to integrate environmental justice principles into our programs and services?
The answers poured in enthusiastically from senior officials across the Federal Government at a recent special Deputy Secretary-level meeting of the Environmental Justice Interagency Working Group. I hosted this meeting along with U.S. EPA Deputy Administrator Bob Perciasepe to mark the completion of an historic strategic planning effort.
Building on the Obama Administration's commitment to strong environmental and health protections for all Americans, Federal agencies and offices have been revisiting and re-invigorating their approach to environmental justice. We set out our roadmap for concerted Federal Government action last year in an interagency Memorandum of Understanding, in which agencies committed to publishing environmental justice strategies and annual progress reports on their implementation of those strategies. When the deputies gathered at our meeting, the final strategies had just been released. To ensure their relevance and rigorous implementation, the strategies reflect public input, and they focus on engraining environmental justice principles in core Government practices and programs.
We agreed it was time to transition from strategic planning to action. As a Working Group, we decided that to succeed, we must prioritize our actions and leverage existing resources as much as possible, including through developing and expanding public-private partnerships and sharing best practices across agencies. I jotted down the following examples to give you a sense of what this means in practice:
- Deputy Secretary David Hayes described the Department of the Interior's work with private companies to help provide renewable energy to remote Native Alaskan communities.
- Assistant Secretary Howard Koh from the Department of Health and Human Services indicated that the health impact assessment tools that the Department is developing will enable Federal decision-makers across the Government to identify and consider public health impacts, including those that disproportionately apply to low-income and minority communities.
- The Department of Energy and the Department of Housing and Urban Development are developing staff and stakeholder training on environmental justice principles which may be applicable to other Federal offices as well.
As someone who worked in the Federal Government when we first began considering environmental justice principles two decades ago, I am heartened by where we are headed today. With newfound direction and momentum, we are answering the call for systematic and durable applications of environmental justice principles to our programs and services, so we can see meaningful results.
