Which Justice Will Author The Medellin Opinion?
Closed Published by Kedar S. Bhatia March 19th, 2008 in Court Procedure, Supreme CourtMedellin (docket, questions presented, oral arguments, petitioner's brief) is without a doubt one of the most anticipated opinions of the year.
Medellin was argued on October 10, 2007, making it one of the oldest cases still being decided. As of today, it has been nearly 160 days since Medellin's oral arguments and last year, the average time between oral argument and release date was only 93 days.
The art (science) of predicting case authors is ambiguous at best. The rule of thumb is that Justices usually will not author two opinions in a month until all Justices have authored at least one. Thanks to SCOTUSblog, you can see a breakdown of last year's opinions here. You can see that the Justices did a very good job of distributing majority opinions evenly. The only reason I could imagine for a Justice to pen zero while another does two would be if one Justice dissented in every case during a single sitting (or if the Justices just decided that they didn't need to distribute majority opinions equally.)
Since there were only 9 cases argued in October, we can assume that each Justice will author only one majority opinion. Here are the cases argued during the October sitting and their current statuses:
Case | Status | Author |
Washington | Decided | Thomas |
Tom F. | Per Curiam | - |
Gall | Decided | Stevens |
Kimbrough | Decided | Ginsburg |
Torres | Decided | Scalia |
Santos | Undecided | - |
Watson | Decided | Souter |
Stoneridge | Decided | Kennedy |
Medellin | Undecided | - |
That leaves the Chief Justice and Justices Breyer and Alito. Its hard to say which of those three will author the opinion but if you have an idea how the Court will decide you could narrow it down further. This case is particularly hard to predict because the majority opinion could very well be written by more than one Justice, like in McConnell v. FEC, where three opinions featured at least five Justices. There will no doubt be one or more concurring opinions in which Justices seek to clarify their positions and add dicta to the line of precedence that this case is sure to influence.

It extends the lives of animals, and now two independent studies show that it can reverse the symptoms of Alzheimer's. Is this the drug we've been waiting for? Advertisement A study published yesterday in the Journal of Biological Chemistry confirmed that mice with Altzheimers showed marked improvement in memory and cognition after being fed a rapamycin-enhanced diet. This study was released simultaneously with another, in PLoS One, which confirmed the results of the first in a different group of mice.How does this wonder drug work? Physiologist Veronica Galvan, an author on the PLoS study, explained: Advertisement Rapamycin treatment lowered levels of amyloid-beta-42, a major toxic species of molecules in Alzheimer's disease. These molecules, which stick to each other, are suspected to play a key role in the early memory failure of Alzheimer's . . . The fact that we are seeing identical results in two vastly different mouse models of Alzheimer's disease provides robust evidence that rapamycin treatment is effective and is acting by changing a basic pathogenic process of Alzheimer's that is common to both mouse models. This suggests that it may be an effective treatment for Alzheimer's in humans, who also have very diverse genetic makeup and life histories.Rapamycin has already been approved by the FDA to treat organ rejection in transplant patients. That means doctors could start prescribing it for the "off label" use of treating Alzheimers tomorrow. The researchers are still not sure if the drug would reverse the effects of Alzheimers, or simply block them. But for millions of people suffering the effects of Alzheimers, that question may be moot.Expect to be hearing more about this drug, and soon.Reply101 repliesLeave a reply

Written by Emily Mullins
Bob Burns is concerned about the future of food as we know it. The member of Ledyard (Conn.) Congregational Church United Church of Christ and owner of Ledyard's Aiki Farms is one of the area's most active voices against the production and unlabeled use of genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, that ultimately find their way into the food supply without public knowledge or consent. For the most part, opponents like Burns are not being heard by GMO producers. But with support from the UCC's Connecticut Conference and its 97,000 members, Burns is hoping his voice may now be a little louder.
"The issue is that we have huge corporations that alter the structure of seeds through genetic modification, patent that difference, and then turn around and tell you and I that there is no difference between genetically modified foods and non-genetically modified foods," Burns explains. "The least these organizations can do is take responsibility and label their food so we can make a choice."
A GMO is the result of a laboratory process of taking genes from one species and inserting them into another in an attempt to obtain a desired trait or characteristic. GMOs are the source of genetically modified foods, and scientists have used genetic modification to create plants, animals and bacteria with biological characteristics that would never occur in the natural world – such as rice that can provide malaria resistance or salmon that grows twice as large as wild varieties.
The "Big 6" GMO producers are Monsanto, BASF, Bayer, Dow, DuPont and Syngenta. According to the Huffington Post, companies like Monsanto are investing millions of dollars to keep GMO production behind closed doors and fight legislation like California's Proposition 37, which would have required mandatory labeling of products made with GMOs. That issue was defeated in the November election. Like Burns, many GMO opponents feel that consumers have the right to know what is in their food, and that mandatory labeling would allow consumers to make informed decisions about what they eat.
The Rev. Patricia Bjorling, Connecticut Conference associate minister for generosity ministries and member of the Environmental Ministry Team, said the passage of Prop 37 would have changed the landscape of GMO labeling on a national level, and that its defeat was a disappointment. Connecticut also had a bill on the same issue fail earlier this year, when legislators backed down after lawsuit threats from food producers. But to Bjorling, these failures don't mean that the public is against GMO labeling. She believes people are not fully educated about the issue. With the help of Burns and the Environmental Ministry Team, the conference passed a resolution at its October annual meeting calling for GMO education in congregations and communities throughout Connecticut.
"We realized that there needed to be more education about labeling and about what a GMO is so that people in Connecticut and in our churches would be better informed and better able to talk about what their views are so that legislation like this has a better chance of seeing the light of day," Bjorling said. "A lot of money was put into opposition of labeling by big companies and it didn't pass."
Churches within the Connecticut Conference will show films, sponsor speakers, distribute printed materials, develop a website, participate in local events and even hold a press conference with local clergy to bring the topic of GMOs to the forefront. For unfamiliar, or "hotbed" issues, the Connecticut Conference mandates a two-step resolution process – education followed by action – and the conference will need to decide by May if it will propose step two at its next annual meeting. With more education, Bjorling believes the church can position itself as a meaningful voice in support of GMO labeling, equipped with the necessary information to ask the right questions and make the right decisions.
"The church has the moral, ethical lens, where the rest of the world often has an economic lens," Bjorling said. "The church has a lens that says, 'Is it right? Is it just?' And I don't always hear those questions being asked when decisions are being made about things out there in the world."
One of the conference's main concerns is the ethical aspects of mixing the genes of difference species, which Burns says violates scripture. But the other concerns center around the unknown. What does this do to our health, to existing crops, and to the environment? What will it do to small, organic farmers like Burns, or to farmers in developing countries who rely on traditional farming for survival? Some of these questions could be answered in time through testing and research, but it seems like no one is taking this important step before the food supply is inundated with unnatural organisms we can't see, taste or smell. And with companies like Pepsi Co., ConAgra Foods, Kellogg Company, Nestle, Coca Cola, Campbell's Soup and a plethora of other giants opposing GMO testing and labeling, it may be a hard road to find the answers we seek.
"I would like to see us think though some of the ethics before we go pell-mell about it," Bjorling said. "We do a lot of things quickly, without thinking of long-term ramifications of what it's going to do."
The United Church of Christ, working for environmental justice for almost 30 years, recognizes this campaign as a great opportunity for a shared mission campaign to live out our faith — in unity, as one church — for the sake of our fragile planet Earth.
Here's a preview of Mission 4/1 Earth: 50 Great Days.

A walk with my great-grandfather through the last foreign country in New York City
April 1999 | Volume 50, Issue 2
In 1888 Tom Lee tore down the old wooden townhouse at 18 Mott, and Great-Grandfather helped do the finish work on the elaborate new building that took its place. At the same time, the Chinese Charitable (later Consolidated) Benevolent Association, or CCBA, was building its own shiny new headquarters next door at 16 Mott. The CCBA was and remains the unofficial government of the Chinese community in New York, having applied for recognition in 1884 not with the government of New York State but with the Imperial Court in Peking. (It finally got around to registering with New York in 1890.) The CCBA mediates disputes, registers new businesses, and regulates (or at least tries to) every aspect of the lives of the Chinese of New York. It also in the past collected (or at least tried to) annual dues from every single New York Chinese for the privilege of being governed so well. The CCBA might squirm a little under Tom Lee's "friendly" influence, but 16 Mott would be the chief guiding force of Chinatown for years.
I continue down Mott and into Chatham Square, the space wide open and sunny now but once entombed by the iron cage of the elevated railway, which had a terminus here for some seventy years. Turning left, I pass nondescript stores and nondescript street vendors—and end up face-to-face with one of Chinatown's most lurid and enduring legends.
Every old book, every tourist's tale about Chinatown, seems to center on the tong wars, those epic midnight battles between hatchet-wielding Chinese warriors who whaled away at one another in the tiny lanes only to disappear when the police arrived, vanishing through trap doors and hidden panels into some secret network of tunnels snaking away under Chinatown. I knew this was nonsense. I knew these were sensationalist stories made up to sell papers at the turn of the century—until one day I was poking around in Chatham Square and went through the ordinary-looking door next to Off-Track Betting and found a tunnel. It does, in fact, snake around under Chinatown, with other branches sealed off with gates and locked doors. It's not very sinister, though. The Chinatown tunnel is now lined with little shops: an herbalist; a travel agent; an adviser on feng shui , the ancient art of arranging the physical elements of one's life to influence the spirits in one's favor. But it is a tunnel, and it made me realize that those old stories might not be as fanciful as I thought.
This particular tunnel once led into the basement of the old Chinese Opera House at 5 Doyers Street. Chinese opera is incomprehensible to most Western ears, but for a turnof-the-century Chinese, it was a trip back home, with splendid costumes and classic tales going back hundreds, if not thousands, of years. Tom Lee's On Leong Tong, which affected a certain gentlemanly hauteur, favored the opera, and its members, my great-grandfather included, could be found thronging the plain basement theater on most Sunday nights. Such was the case on August 6, 1905, when suddenly, midway through the six-hour performance, the men in the front and rear rows—all members of the archrival Hip Sing Tong—stood up, turned to face the On Leongers, and opened fire with their .44s. Needless to say, there was pandemonium. The On Leong men drew their weapons and fired back as actors and musicians dived for cover. Outside on Doyers Street there was a near riot as police from all over the Lower East Side converged on the tiny theater and clubbed their way through the people and smoke down the stairs—to find nothing but four dead or dying tong soldiers. All the rest had vanished, dragging their wounded down the tunnel in which I am now walking. I can almost hear their screams as I climb the stairs at the end and find myself on Doyers Street.
I love Doyers Street. It is so narrow that a single car can barely squeeze through. It is so crooked that those straight-flying evil spirits won't get far. Doyers Street is now known primarily as a home to barbershops and, at 13-15, the Nom Wah Tea Parlor, an ancient dim sum dumpling restaurant that my father used to eat in as a little boy. But early in this century it was a battleground. The tong wars, which raged intermittently from the late 1890s to the 1930s, nearly tore Chinatown apart. Doyers was supposedly the scene of some of the grimmest action—the white press dubbed one of its narrow twists and turns "the Bloody Angle"—but Pell Street really saw more gunfire.
If one follows Doyers to the left, it dead-ends at Pell, another nerve center of old Chinatown. To the right, at Number 16, is the current headquarters of the Hip Sing Tong, although during the wars it was situated across the street at 13.

The Celebrity:
The First Class was very sparsely occupied, just two or three people in all those 20 odd seats. I spotted one face that struck my solar plexus like a ton of bricks. She was wearing Salvar-kameez and had covered a good portion of her head with the Dupatta. She pretended to be engrossed in a book, quite oblivious of the surroundings. The setting sun shone through the window on her side. She was wearing very large sunglasses that covered almost one-third of her face. Very obviously, she valued her privacy very dearly and did not want to be recognized. Even then, it struck me that she seemed very familiar, as if I might have met her some where, some time. But I just could not place a label on that face. I kept walking and came back to my seat.
The sun had set after a while. The lights had been dimmed. Only some soft lights at the aisle were kept on. Some passengers had turned on their reading lights. I stood up and walked toward the First Class cabin once again, wanting to take another look at this mysterious passenger. The reading light illuminated her face partially; it was still buried in the book. Only then slowly, it all came back to me.
She was Archana Roy. Yes, oh my God! It was indeed she. I had watched her on the movie screen so many times...............................................
I heard a gentle knock on the intermediate door. She had seen the news on her TV as well. She was flushed pink and visibly shaken. She was in tears. She pleaded if she could come in, as she was scared and shocked beyond belief. I let her come in. We were both still in the same clothes we had been in all day.
We sat on the bed resting our backs on the pillow and headboard. We were watching the breaking news, clasping our hands with horror in our eyes. I could feel that she wanted to clasp me and hold me close. But I was just too confused and emotionally broken myself to make any kind of physical response to her overtures...........................................
She asked if she could leave the intermediate door open. I readily agreed. As she went into her room she turned and told me over her shoulder to give her a wake up call at 5:30, if she was not already awake.
I could see that her bathroom door was also half-ajar. I could see her full image reflected on the large mirror at the sink. She was probably unaware of that or she might have purposely wanted it that way.
She took her Dupatta and hung it on the peg at the opposite wall. Then she slowly removed the hooks on the back of her Kameez one by one and slowly slid it over her head. Turned around and hung that also on the peg....................................... One by one everything came off and she disrobed completely. Her ivory complexion and smooth skin made her look like Neptune under moonlight.
She pulled out a brush from her handbag, stroked her dark brown hair a few times. She took out an elastic band and bound her hair into a ponytail. Then she splashed her face with cold running water. Rubbed some soap all over to remove the makeup. She rinsed her face finally and covered it with fresh laundered hand towel from the rack. Her clean spotless natural skin without any makeup shone looking even prettier.
Then she pulled out a brown paper package from the handbag and removed a T-shirt. She pulled it over her head and let it fall all the way down to her ankles. It was a top-to-toe large T-shirt with "Welcome to Arkansas" written on the back with a picture of a sunrise behind Ozark Mountains in the front. Obviously this was the piece of article that had started the whole rigmarole that evening. Or should I say it was the cause of our survival today. I heard her switch off the light and get into her bed...........................................
As my flight was approaching to land at the New Delhi International Airport, my thoughts were wandering back to my childhood in a sweet little town Udaipur in the state of Rajasthan.................................
We lived in a villa on the banks of the Swaroop Sagar lake, a villa that was the official residence of the Prime Minister of the local Kingdom before the princely monarchies were constitutionally abolished. The villa was several miles away from the main town and Sohan Singh our Chauffeur would drive me to and fro school. While driving back from school, he would let me sit by his side and steer the car, my legs would not reach the pedals on the floor. He would roll down the window on his side and take a few puffs. We had a perfect quid pro quo, I would tell nobody that he took puffs in the car in front of me and he would let me steer the car. Sooner or later my legs started growing and reaching the pedals. I even got my own driver's license. That was a sad day for Sohan Singh, his puffing privileges were severely curtailed then on. In fact if Sohan Singh had his way, I would not have got my license for another few years...................
The school itself was in the middle of a farm. If you looked out of the classroom window you could tell the season by the crop growing around you. Whenever we had a free period, we kids would run and sit by the well. Two blindfolded bulls would go round and round in circles drawing water from the well with a Persian Wheel and spilling it over a mud canal. I would spot a twig and follow it on the flowing water, recalling each of its stopping places with the ports of Marco Polo our teacher had just told us in the geography class. We could run into the fields and pick up fresh carrots or maize (corn?) to be roasted on charcoal, eaten with lime and salt or a stick of sugar cane to be squ

DUNDEE, Mich. - Authorities were searching for a man accused of dragging a teenage girl through her bedroom window in the middle of the night, leading her to an abandoned building, and fondling her.
Monroe County sheriff's deputies said they believe the abductor was familiar with his victim.
"This is someone local who knows her daily patterns," Detective Jeff Corie told The Monroe Evening News for a story published yesterday. "I really don't think it was a random act."
The incident happened shortly before 1 a.m. Monday. The man cut off the screen on the girl's bedroom window and grabbed the 16-year-old when she tried to place a fan in the window.
Detective Corie said the man held a knife to the girl and led her to a building at a nearby junkyard where he tied her to a pole, covered her mouth with duct tape, and fondled her.
The man then took the girl to a grassy field, where he attempted to assault her again but was scared off by some people nearby, Detective Corie said. The girl yelled for help, and other people came to her aid.
The kidnapper, who wore all-black clothing and a ski mask, got away in a small, older-model, brown four-door car.

So stupid! Might as well call them lower, middle and upper class lanes. When I was in San Diego a few months ago during late afternoon rush hour, I only saw one car in front of me and in the rear view on a long straight away. Didn't seem like very many commuters were using the toll lane. What a waste of freeway space.
By 2035, I'm really hoping to have a hydrogen car that can fly over really slow cars in the left lane, safely run stop lights and signs and be wherever I want to be in 10 minutes with no speeding tickets.

When I was in the library a few months ago on a Saturday morning, I only saw one person in the reference section where I was sitting and one in the foreign languages section on the other side of the floor. Didn't seem like many residents were using the library. What a waste of space and public $$.
Wish they could just do away with it and put in a parking lot for hydrogen-powered cars driven by sarcastic drivers like me...

It's terrible that people with money can buy there way into the car pool lanes, this idea needs to be buried. I look forward to the time when hybrid cars are banned from the the car pool lanes even thought today I test drove two new hybrid cars.
Car pool lanes should remain car pool lanes.

Ogle Earth has an interesting little piece on a project called OBIS-SEAMAP. This project tracks marine mammal, seabird and sea turtle data around the world. The really intersting thing about the site is that they make the exact same data they use available to the general public for download. The more expert GIS users can download an ESRI Shapefile while the general public can download a KML file for use in Google Earth. As Ogle Earth points out, this is a great model for getting the public in general and younger students specifically interested in science and scientific ideas.
I know I would have thought it was the coolest thing in the world when I was in school to be able to track and analyize data in the exact same way as leading scientists in the field. Who am I kidding? I
still think it's the coolest thing in the world! 🙂

The Twilight Saga: New Moon Soundtrack
- By Various Artists
- Genre: Soundtrack
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that there are some haunting sounds on this CD, full of melancholy and woe, but nothing that would pose an issue for teens or even tweens for that matter. This soundtrack is in fact more suitable for younger kids than either the Twilight book series or the Twilight movie. That's good news for kids clamoring to get in on the teen fan frenzy, and this might be a good starting point for introducing the saga. There are a few references to love, death and feeling blue, but nothing too depressing.

What's the story?
So hotly anticipated that its release date was pushed up nearly a week, THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON - ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK is a collection of moody indie rock that subtly gives a nod to the much-loved vampiric angst of the novels and films. All songs on the album are original and exclusive to the soundtrack, so you won't find any recycled singles here. Artists included on the LP include Death Cab for Cutie (who performs the premiere single "Meet Me on the Equinox"), The Killers, Band of Skulls, Sea Wolf and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, just to name of few of the 15 various performers.
Is it any good?
Like the pairing of Bella and Edward, this soundtrack is the perfect marriage of quality tunes (that could stand on their own merits) and subtle references to the vampire love story. In fact there's plenty of obvious allusions to spooky stuff here, enough to keep Twilight fans under the spell of the movie for sure. Lykke Li eerily and sweetly sings, "tell me when you hear my heart stop, you're the only one I love" on "Possibility" and The Killers sing "A White Demon Love Song" fitting for the Cullen's complexion.
References to friends, darkness, the equinox, and immortality make the connection to the film without hitting you over the head with obvious nods to the plotline. There's a decidedly '80s feel that draws on the sounds of Depeche Mode and New Wave on tracks like Muse's "I Belong to You" and "Hearing Damage" from Thom Yorke. But the pop sound is balanced out perfectly by a host of ambient tracks full of hypnotic melodies and far-away harmonies that create an almost dream-like state.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about vampires and the appeal of these stories. If your kids are fascinated by Twilight and New Moon, use the books, movie, and music to have discussions about topics you wouldn't otherwise talk about.
Families can talk about how falling in love is portrayed in books and on film. Do you think relationships like those of Edward and Bella are realistic? Do you think the moody music that's found on this album relates well to the theme of New Moon?

Because one review just wasn't enough. Here are my video highlights from Fro Fashion Week (FFW). FFW, held in the Fall and Spring, in Atlanta, GA, is a celebration of the naturalista, curly girl and fashion. The latest Fall event held September 24-30, featured festivities around Atlanta that included salon visits, a thrifting trip, fitness event, something for the kiddies, and a conference at the end of the week for hair and fashion education.
All was fabulous.

Message from Christchurch
On Tuesday 6th December approximately 30 spatial professional's from across Canterbury gathered at Pomeroy's pub in Christchurch to celebrate the end of a very long year. Thanks to Intergraph and Eagle for supporting the evening and for their continued support during the year.
This was the fourth event held in Christchurch and feedback suggests that local professionals have found the events to be very beneficial, providing great networking opportunities and improving business relationships.
We are planning a range of events for Christchurch next year including a Women In Spatial breakfast, Young Professional targeted events, a trivia night, some formal presentations and definitely another drinks session at Pomeroy's which is always a popular venue. Dates will be advised in early February. If you have any suggestions for events, would like to help organise any or even sponsor one please get in contact with myself at email@example.com
It has been a massive year for the spatial industry! I have seen it mature in front of my eyes as much in the last 12 months as would normally occur over years and years. There have been leaps and bounds in sharing data, working collaboratively and using new technologies. I feel very privileged to have been able to contribute my small part in this and leverage at least some benefit from the tragic events we have experienced. I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank every individual and company from across New Zealand and internationally that have contributed to the earthquake response and recovery effort and congratulate them on a job well done. I hope that we can all maintain our enthusiasm and continue to work together to continually improve our services and our industry. I wish everyone a very peaceful summer break and a shake free 2012!

GW Men's Soccer Stays Unbeaten in A-10 Play on Painter's Golden Goal
Sophomore Scores in Double Overtime at URI After Adewole's Last-Minute Equalizer
Oct. 25, 2013
KINGSTON, R.I. - Sophomore Eddie Painter's golden goal in the fifth minute of double overtime lifted the George Washington men's soccer team to dramatic a 2-1 victory over Atlantic 10 rival Rhode Island on a chilly Friday evening at the URI Soccer Complex.
With the win, GW remains unbeaten in Atlantic 10 play, improving to 5-6-2 overall and 2-0-2 against league opponents.
Rhode Island (2-9-0, 0-3-0 A-10) got on the board first just 10 minutes in when Matt Sykes set up Adam Camillo with a ball that Camillo rocketed into the upper right corner for a 1-0 lead that held up through halftime.
The Colonials controlled possession in the second half with a 9-3 shot advantage in the period, and with just 43 seconds left in regulation, senior Bailey Hinners - who has forced overtime twice this season with goals of his own - sent a ball through the box to freshman Tobi Adewole, who headed it home to knot the game at 1-1 with his first career goal.
Neither team had any significant chances in the first extra session. Then in the 105th minute Adewole caused a turnover in the midfield and played a long pass to Painter, who collected it on a bounce, faked out a URI defender and fired a shot off the underside of the crossbar from 10 yards out for the first goal of his career and the game-winner.
Junior goalkeeper Luke Farrell recorded four saves, while Thomas Spenser stopped nine shots for URI as GW matched its season high with 18 shots in the game.
The Colonials return to action on Sunday when they visit Atlantic 10 rival Massachusetts for a 1 p.m. kickoff.

I want to this to be real. I really doubt it. The Hex shaped trash can..doesn't seem 76..and the orange safety poles that are bolt up right cylinders seem out of place for 76.
The bottom bit of the Gas gauge icon with the the indicator pointing to the left side is either the first media of that icon being used or someone placing a photoshop thing without understanding about the 70's.
I might be wrong on that—but that that gas arrow icon wasn't used until Japanese imports became popular in later 70's.

South Africa captain Jean de Villiers believes his team can shrug off a long list of injuries to do well on their three-match European tour later this month.
The Springboks take on Ireland on Saturday next weekend, before facing Scotland seven days later and England on Nov. 24.
"We have come a long way as a team this year, but we are looking to improve and take our game to the next level and win all three matches on tour," De Villiers told a news conference in Cape Town on Friday ahead of the squad's departure. "We have a lot of youngsters because we are missing some injured players with a lot of experience. Guys like wing Bryan Habana, loose forwards Pierre Spies and Schalk Burger and hooker Tiaan Liebenberg."
The Springboks are not the only team suffering from the loss of key players — Ireland will be without captain and inspirational center Brian O'Driscoll.
"I have huge respect for Brian, he is a fantastic player and they will miss his leadership," De Villiers said. "But Ireland are a quality side. It is never easy playing a test match over there."
De Villiers has been injured himself and had to miss last week's Currie Cup final.
"I'm getting better. I'm not 100 percent yet, but if all goes according to plan with the rehabilitation, I should be ready for the Ireland match," he said. "We have lost three out of the last four matches against Ireland and it is something we want to improve on."
De Villiers said conceding "soft tries" was his biggest concern as that had cost his team the chance of victory over New Zealand and Australia during the recent Rugby Championship tournament.
"We certainly want to improve our decisionmaking, especially with the conditions over there, but we will be facing different teams with different tactics, so we will need to be spot on with our planning and execution," he added.
The Springboks have not completed a clean sweep of victories in the northern hemisphere since 2008, when they beat Scotland and Wales, before ending the tour with a thumping victory over England at Twickenham.

Well this holiday weekend at Corntassle Cottage was filled with various adventures. Most of the weekend was wrought with storms, and some of them included heavy rain and wind. We even had a few branches blown down onto the neighbor's house. Luckily they were not large enough to cause any real damage, just a scrap on the siding and a dent in the A/C casing, for which I am thoroughly grateful. We even managed to be able to grill out steak's for dinner on Monday evening; there is nothing better…

When you become a parent, there is no manual. There is no one to tell you what's right and what's wrong. Not much is black and white; there are many questions that result in different answers for different families.

The first: you have to make decisions that do right by your family – not your sister's family or your cousin's family or your best friend from high school's family. And…

this course is very challenging, and the first hole i would even say is brutal. it dogs right the entire time with a narrow fairway and water in play to the right, and very dense and tall weeds to the left(very easy to lose your disc). the sheer hardnesss of the course makes this one worth playing every time. most of the terrain is flat, but there is a couple of holes that go up, then down hill. water is in play for the first 4 holes. the course is well maintained if you stay on the fare way, and in the flat area. there is some wooded area outlining the flat holes that you do not want to throw in because of the density. most of the holes are long. i give this course an 8.75 rating for toughness. if your a sirious disc golfer, you must play this course.

Is it true that gen~ objects are limited to 16 inputs only?!? I hope this will change soon since i find it very limiting for complex patches.
anyway to get over it at the moment?!
I have been spreading my processes out over multiple gen~s to get around this. Apart from anything, it just makes complex patches more manageable, at least until subpatchers & encapsulation are supported.
Another thing you might consider is using more param messages..?

We haven't heard from Mark Sanford — the former governor of South Carolina, hiking enthusiast, and serial adulter — in quite a while, but according to Roll Call, Sanford is "studying" a possible run for the House seat to be vacated by Tim Scott, the Republican congressman whom Gov. Nikki Haley officially tapped Monday afternoon to replace Jim DeMint. From Abby Livingston at Roll Call:
Former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford is being approached by local conservatives to run for Republican Rep. Tim Scott's soon-to-be-vacant House seat — and is considering it — according to two sources in the state. Sanford previously occupied the same Charleston-based seat in the 1990s.
The Republican ex-governor is "studying" a run for the 1st District and making a political comeback, according to one well-placed South Carolina source.
The report follows (real) speculation that Haley might choose Sanford's ex-wife, Jenny, to replace DeMint, and a (sadly unreal) effort by Stephen Colbert to replace him instead.
RELATED: Nikki Haley Names Tim Scott to Replace DeMint
Sanford appeared as a commentator on Fox News throughout the campaign this year, in a surprisingly well received public comeback for a Republican star once thought to be a presidential contender, until he disappeared on a trip to "the Appalachian trail" that turned out to be a cover-up for a longtime affair. He proposed to his former lover in August.

Warning: this blog contains images and video footage that may upset you.
Recently word came to our Greenpeace office in Indonesia that a Sumatran tiger was stuck in an animal trap in the province of Riau. It was trapped for six days in total without food or water. After a week of suffering forest officers arrived to evacuate the tiger – but it was too late. The tiger died during the rescue attempt.
Zamzami, a Greenpeace media campaigner, traveled to the area with the rescue team as an observer, and was present for the tiger's last few hours. He describes the scene that met him: despite its ordeal the "tiger still emitted a strong wild aura" and "greeted me with an angry roar". Everyone present stood stunned and silent to see the "King of the jungle lying low, trapped and suffering in his own home". The spot where the tiger became trapped was on the border of PT Arara Abadi, an APP acacia plantation. Video footage reveals that nearby the spot where the tiger wandered into the trap, and later died, there was a large area of recently destroyed forest where active clearing was ongoing. That means a lot of disruptive activity was happening: trees were being felled and heavy machinery, like excavators, were busy clearing the rainforest. Only 13 kilometres away from where the excavators were at work is the spot where this animal spent its last days trapped, injured and starving.
Unfortunately, more tragic moments like this are the future that is in store for this majestic animal. The Sumatran tiger is already endangered, there are only around 400 remaining in the wild and - now we know – even one less than that. Yet APP operations in Indonesia continue to clear rainforest that includes tiger habitat, destroying the home and hunting grounds of the Sumatran tiger in order to feed APP's pulp and paper operations. From there what was once rainforest ends up in all sorts of things - like throw-away toy packaging. Some of this packaging has been used by toy companies such as Hasbro, Disney and Mattel. And the future doesn't look any better. APP has ambitious expansion plans and the areas of rainforest it plans to expand into includes more tiger habitat.
Someone once told me that roads in a forest are like veins – once opened they can end up draining the forest of life. When APP builds a concession in tiger habitat, it not only destroys the forest the tiger would normally roam, sleep and hunt in – the roads it builds to carry away the timber also let in all kinds of other disruptions. People come and lay traps to hunt other animals, and even if they don't mean to interfere with the tiger, they do. When their traditional habitat is destroyed tigers must roam even further for food and shelter, which often brings them closer to forest communities and causes more conflict.
APP must stop relying on further clearance of rainforest for its business. Destruction of rainforests in Indonesia must stop to protect animals like the Sumatran tiger, minimize the negative consequences for forest communities, and for Indonesia to be able to cut its carbon emissions contributing to climate change, most of which come from deforestation. This pulp and paper company adds insult to injury by portraying itself as a sustainable, responsible business – which acts to protect biodiversity and animals like the Sumatran tiger. It runs ads on television and in print all over the world presenting itself almost as if it is an NGO, rather than a pulp and paper business. These ads often use the tagline 'APP Cares' next to an image like the imprint of a tiger paw, giving the impression that APP cares about tigers. In reality its operations destroy tiger habitat for profit - pushing these animals to the brink of extinction.
Image: Melvinas Priananda / Greenpeace
The image that APP projects of being a caring company, committed to sustainability and conservation efforts, is revealed as a lie as soon as it is compared with images of the reality of APP operations on the ground. In addition to removing APP products from their supply chain, toy companies like Mattel, Hasbro and Disney must put in place new policies to cover all their purchases of pulp and paper products. This is the only way to ensure they will not be complicit in forest destruction in the future. The last moments of this one Sumatran tiger are just the latest example of the terrible costs of the ongoing destruction of Indonesia's rainforests – if APP continues to operate this way, there will be more.

There are no words strong to express my emotions. When will people ever learn to respect and enjoy what nature gave us instead of destroying it! I echo the sentiments of the other comments here 100%. hOW DO WE STOPTHIS TRADGEDY??? We must start educating children from a very early age and teach them to enjoy and appreciate what nature offers and to boycott industries that do not use environmentally friendly methods.

This makes me so mad, disgusted, and appalled at the human race. Why wasn't something done to save or at least help this majestic creature way before they finally did??? You know that he was terrified, in horrific pain and this SHOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED. Some one needs to be held responsible for this and it must not happen again. If this kind of killing continues there will be no more of any of the majestic animals that we have in our world today. Let's stop the killing and try to live in harmony with all humans and all animals.

We have to find something else for these workers todo,we cannot expect people living on the edge of poverty and destitution to give up their meager earnings for a day's work for the sake of any animal.Perhaps we could get them involved in reforestry and habitate protection if we could find a way to make it profitable for them.Without an option,what would we do?

The ball is like a wiffle ball - but different. The court is like tennis - but smaller. We use a paddle - but this in not paddle tennis. The net is 2" shorter than a tennis net. Fun, very social, and you get an excellent workout. Great for all ages.
Jack Hodges, the instructor, just retired from coaching college baseball and moved to the Central Coast. An avid tennis player and tennis instructor, he discovered the advantages of Pickleball.

Remembering 9/11 |
Feel free to leave your personal memories on the talk page. Never forget.
- By various contributors
- United States
September 11, 2001 was cool and clear and lovely in NYC, and I went to visit a friend on W. 22nd St. before going to work. The first hijacked plane flew southward over my head as I approached Frank's door. I didn't even look up (being a New Yorker), but thought the accelerating sound unusual over the city. Frank and I spent almost an hour talking about computer subjects, then I went to work, ignoring the sirens and fire engines rushing downtown. It didn't seem that unusual. Getting to work I noticed that for the first time in memory, we had a television on, and it became immediately clear what was going on. I called Frank to get him to turn on his little-used TV. Many of us rushed to the roof of our ten-story building to see what was happening. It was a bad day to have good eyesight. I didn't know it at the time, but my friend Frank, a 75 year-old man, rushed downtown with the first wave of American Red Cross grief counselors. It was what those folks had done time after time. I watched with horror and disbelief as both towers came down. The business stayed open for a few hours, then we shut it down and all went home. The subways were unusually chatty all day. Everyone wanted to listen to what others had seen. For weeks afterward, somebody on the subway would break down crying or get tearful, and all of us sympathized with what they were going through; we were each going through it ourselves. It was clear New York would never be the same again. At the time, we all assumed tens of thousands had been lost. Frank passed away in his sleep the next night, his lungs congested with aerosol contaminants. The city was so disrupted, it was several months before we honored Frank's passing. So Frank is my 9/11 hero. Not a firefighter, not a policeman, just an ordinary hero. But in the context of Wikipedia, I have other 9/11 heroes. See, I can't edit 9/11 topics pages. It's too difficult even to read those pages, much less edit them with clarity. On Wikipedia, my 9/11 heroes are the dedicated editors who keep those pages free from conspiracy and disruption. It takes a special kind of courage and detachment to protect those valuable public resources, not unlike the qualities of my friend Frank. Thanks, folks. BusterD (talk) 15:53, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
- Brazil
I was in High School back when the September 11 attacks occurred. As a Brazilian, I could afford the luxury of being far away from it. However, with a sister living near Boston, and the lack of precise information on the morning of 11 September, all my family and I could feel was fear for the safety of a loving one. Once the details of the attacks became more clear, the magnitude of the tragedy came as a terrible shock. I can firmly say that Brazil, as as well as many other nations across the globe, were closer than ever to the United States and its people in their plight on that pitiful day and beyond. Let us not forget the dead and their families' sorrow. It is the least we can do. --Lecen (talk) 02:42, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
- United Kingdom
I very rarely watch television but it happened that I wasn't working on 11 September 2001 and, after dropping my children off at school, I switched on the TV to catch the morning news. Needless to say I stayed glued for most of the day. Terrorism is nothing new to citizens of the United Kingdom but the scale of the unfolding events was truly shocking. The following day I recall US flags appearing in windows throughout the city where I live as a gesture of unity with our cousins across the Atlantic, and of course along with 90 other countries worldwide we had our own dead to mourn. There was anger and incomprehension aplenty at the sheer moral poverty that would lead people to commit such barbaric acts and others to applaud them, but there was also hope and comfort in the many stories of sacrifice and heroism and in the spontaneous outpouring of solidarity with the people of the United States. The terrorists had struck not just at a nation but at a set of basic values and ideals that make us citizens of this planet, and regardless of political persuasion or religious conviction it was as human beings that our peoples came together and affirmed our common belief in creating a world that's worth living in. As we take a moment to remember those that were lost then and since, and those they've left behind, we can also honour their legacy by treating each other with dignity and respect. We have made and will make mistakes, but part of being human is that we have the capacity to pick ourselves up and try again in the belief that we can make tomorrow better than today. EyeSerenetalk 09:45, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
- Germany
I remember September 11 very well. Due to the 6 hour time difference it was already early afternoon in Germany when the attacks occurred. I had left work early to take my son to the dentist, something he didn't enjoy very much so I promised him that we would go shopping afterwards. Boys being boys all over the world he took me to the local shopping mall wanting to buy a new computer game, CD or something. When we entered the electronics and media store we noticed groups of people standing around the various television sets, watching what we initially believed to be Independence Day. We walked over to the computer games section when we starting asking ourselves why this normally so crowded store is so empty. My son settled for some CD and we walked over to the cashier again passing the television section. People were still watching, standing, debating in shock. Only then did we realize that some important had happened. We kept staring at the television set for minutes that turned into hours in disbelief. MisterBee1966 (talk) 13:31, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
- Australia
When a friend called us late one night in Sydney and said a plane had hit the World Trade Center, I assumed it was like the B-25 Empire State Building crash in 1945 -- a bad accident but nothing worse. I was rapidly dissuaded of my complacency as we switched on the TV. It's indeed hard to believe September 11 was 10 years ago. It was barely a week since I'd started a contract at the Royal Australian Navy's Garden Island in Sydney, and we were immediately on high alert. Beyond the attacks themselves, many moments remain vivid: the endless debates on internal Defence forums about just what should be done in retaliation; the image of the crew of the German destroyer Lutjens with their banner "We stand by you" directed towards the nearby USS Winston S. Churchill; a mate in London relating that when he saw the footage he thought he was watching a movie, but he'd never seen a movie with such shocking special effects; my own words by email to friends in America, that we were all from New York now. On the tenth anniversary of September 11, it's appropriate that we spare some thoughts for those who died, for their families and loved ones, and for those who survived the attacks but live with physical or emotional trauma. We should also think of the men and women of the armed services deployed for action as a result of the attacks – regardless of whether we believe that they should (still) be there. While our politicians may or may not have learnt from the Vietnam experience, we the public can hopefully remember: whatever the rights and responsibilities of the modern soldier, choosing which war to fight is not generally among them. Ian Rose (talk) 07:54, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Readers intrigued by the late author but deterred by the sheer bulk of Infinite Jest or The Pale King should enjoy this nursery-slope of his selected essays. Not that DFW ever lets himself off the hook.
Pieces on Roger Federer or the US Open will bristle with as many cliché-busting ideas as discourses on storytelling in maths, or the slide from "fun" to "vanity and fear" in literary careers.
Slangy, intimate, profound, DFW cared deeply about the integrity of his life and thought. In 1988, he hoped that "the good stuff can't help but rise". His did, at least.

Hunting Knife Blade 010 - 440C Steel
- 440C Stainless Steel
- Bead Blast Finish
- Overall: 12 7/8"
- Blade: 7 7/8"
- Thickness: 5/32" or 4.0mm
- Pin Holes: 3 - 5/16"
Made in China
NOTE: These knife blanks are already heat treated and hardened. All you need to do is add a handle and maybe a sheath. We suggest adding a pair of g10 scales in 3/16" or 1/4" thick material for the handle. You could also add some handsome wood scales from our extensive assortment or even from your own stock.
440C is possibly the most popular knife steel in use today. It takes and holds a good edge. It has good corrosion resistance and is tough enough the edge won't chip out. 440C offers a good performing steel at a good price. Finally it can easily sharpened. Don't confuse 440C with lower quality 440A you find on low end knives. 440C is quality steel that has a good balance of edge holding, toughness and corrosion resistance that has stood the test of time

Fills wood pores easily for a smoother finish. Here's a special wood finisher's tool designed for filling the surface pores of open-grained woods. Two 5-7/8" (149.2mm) edges—firm plastic and flexible rubber—make spreading, leveling and removal of excess filler fast, easy and consistent on a variety of instrument contours. Open-grained woods such as rosewood, mahogany, koa, ash and walnut have porous surfaces. Filling and leveling the pores leaves the surface smooth for applying uniform finish coats. Using a contrasting filler color can often enhance the appearance of the wood grain as well. See the directions on your filler container for specific application techniques. Wear protective gloves when working with fillers and finishes.

We did the math. We counted up the nip-slips and ass shots, and compared the Dothraki's naked dances to True Blood's vampire sex tapes. Guess who won?AdvertisementNSFW clip breakdown below.One thing that stuck out to us after viewing the Game Of Thrones pilot was the rampant raunchiness. Sure, there's nudity, sex and naked wedding dances in the book, but does the book pan the camera down so we can get an extra shot of Daenerys Targaryen's behind? Nope. Still, we were sure that GOT couldn't be as salacious as Alan Ball's vampire orgy, True Blood. Or could it? The results will shock you. AdvertisementHere are two "similar" scenes so you catch the drift:Game Of Thrones:True BloodAnd here's our breakdown:AdvertisementSponsoredTotal Number of Scenes That Included Nudity (and/or) a Sex Act: True Blood: 4 Game Of Thrones: 5Total Number of Scenes That Included Nudity: True Blood: 3 Game Of Thrones: 4.5 (As you only see the top of her rump in the twin scene, we're giving it a .5)Number of Characters Who Were Totally Naked: True Blood: 3 (Don't forget the vampire in the vampire sex tape) Game Of Thrones: 2 (Only counting Daenerys Targaryen once, even though she was naked twice)Number of Characters Who Had Sex (or Performed a Sex Act) On Screen: True Blood: 5 Game Of Thrones: 4 (6 if you count what we didn't really see with Daenerys Targaryen and Drogo and we don't — so let's say 4).Number of Prostitutes: True Blood: 0 Game Of Thrones: 4AdvertisementNumber of Male Ass Shots (per character): True Blood: 1 Game Of Thrones: 0Number of Female Ass Shots (per character): True Blood: 1 Game Of Thrones: 4AdvertisementNumber of Nip Slips (per character): True Blood: 1 Game of Thrones: 8 (there are three topless women that we counted at the wedding party)Amount of Time Dedicated to Naked Talking, Sex, Sexual Dancing, Nudity and Sex Acts: True Blood: Around 4 minutes Game of Thrones: Around 6:30 (didn't include the entire wedding scene, since that felt unfair so we just included the really carnal parts)AdvertisementActual On Screen Nudity and Sex Time: True Blood: About 2:00 minutes Game Of Thrones: About about 2:55 minutes of actual on screen nudity time.As you can see Game of Thrones whallops True Blood on-sexy softcore porn, we can not believe it. The vampire show is going to have to step up the dirt sex if it wants to compete. Other observations: Tyrion Lannister is the new Jason Stackhouse.Reply149 repliesLeave a reply
