FCC proposes faster Wi-Fi speeds while in-flight
The FCC has released a proposal that aims to provide faster and more stable Wi-Fi connections while in-flight. That's the good news. The bad news is the ambitious plan won't be ready until 2020, if all goes well.
If you've ever been on an airplane before or at least plan to be on one sometime in the future and always wished that the Wi-Fi speeds were faster (or that there was internet at all), you might be in luck. The FCC has released a report proposing new rules that would result in increased Wi-Fi speeds while in-flight. As of now, the airlines that do offer a wireless internet connection while in-flight often suffer from congestion when an already mediocre connection is being used by far too many people at once.
What this proposal aims to do is free up 500 megahertz of spectrum (in the 14-15GHz band) and create a better broadband service for airlines by increasing the speed as well as the reliability of the connection to the point where it would be competitive with broadband services we enjoy on the ground.
Unfortunately, as you'd expect, a lofty goal like this requires a significant amount of time. The FCC's proposed date for this isn't even until 2020. For the time being the FCC claims that work is already underway and the proposal is now open for public comment.
It should be said that this doesn't mean airplanes won't have quicker internet until then. Other companies are free to implement their own solutions, which companies like Gogo and ViaSat plan to do in the very near future. The best anyone can do for the time being is practice their patience, and look forward to being able to update your Facebook before the complimentary peanuts arrive.

Joseph J. DiDomenico set the standard in public service for his family.
— Joint effort among Fraternal Order of Police, local attorney and individual sponsors has honored 253 police officers to date.

Reid Not Ready To Completely Eliminate Filibuster
AP Photo / J. Scott Applewhite
Reid did not express any regret over removing the ability for Senators to filibuster nominations for cabinet positions and judicial seats other than those on the Supreme Court.
"It's a privilege, not a right," he said of the filibuster.
Reid blamed Congressional inaction on the Tea Party.
"We cannot have a country that's paralyzed because of a group of people, a group of people who are Tea Party-driven Republicans in Congress, not Republicans," he said. "I'm not here to badmouth Republicans around the country. I get a lot of support from the Republicans of Nevada, and always have. But they're mainstream Republicans."

It is no longer uncommon to read about attacks on progressive Pakistani intellectuals and politicians. Islamic scholar Muhammad Farooq Khan, who hosted a popular TV program on the Quran, was gunned down in his office late last year. Punjab Governor Salman Taseer, who challenged Pakistan's oft-abused blasphemy laws, was killed by a member of his own security detail this past January. And Minority Affairs Minister Shabbaz Bhatti, who was quietly working to improve the standing of Pakistan's small minority religious population, was brutally killed outside his home in Islamabad in March.
These killings are tragic, but they are also intelligible. They fit a familiar narrative of liberals versus extremists in Pakistan, reformers versus reactionaries. The militant fringe, we have repeatedly been told, is threatened by intellectual argument, and kills its opponents to intimidate public figures into silence. Each gruesome episode is just the latest battle in the ongoing "war of ideas" in Pakistan.

Michel Le Bon: could attempt to win Badger Ales Trophy for Paul Nicholls
PICTURE: Edward Whitaker (racingpost.com/photos)Nicholls eyes Wincanton for Zarkandar and Bon
CHAMPION trainer Paul Nicholls could unleash a strong challenge on the Grade 2 Elite Hurdle and Badger Ales Trophy on Saturday with Zarkandar and Michel Le Bon entered for the Wincanton contests.
Nicholls has landed the Badger Ales Trophy for the past two seasons and is keen to let Michel Le Bon take his chance in the 3m1½f handicap.
The Elite Hurdle has also gone the way of Nicholls for two of the past three seasons, both time with Celestial Halo, and Zarkandar could be one of three runners in the race for the trainer, who also has Prospect Wells and Escort'men entered in the 2m handicap.
Nicholls said: "I will have a firmer plan later in the week for the Bagder Ale but this has been the plan for Michel Le Bon since he came back in over the summer.
"As far as the Elite Hurdle is concerned , all three of mine are in good order and we will see how things unfold. There is the possibility that I will run all of them."

The monitors display all current standard and high-definition video resolutions available from the GCMS which uses a noiseimmune, fault-tolerant, fiber-optic distribution technology. The system adheres to the Gulfstream Cabin-Essential® design philosophy. This means most single-point failures will be resolved or mitigated automatically.
Two new Touchscreens, one using a 10" LCD screen is located in the Galley and the other using a 5.7" LCD screen is located in the Vestibule. These locations allows for easy Cabin Crew accessibility. The 10" is also used for pre-screening video sources as well as controlling a multitude of Cabin functions such as window shades; video programming presented to the Cabin Video monitors, etc.
Aircraft Cabin Systems is a leading designer and manufacturer of Cabin Inflight entertainment products in the Business and Commercial Aviation market. Video Monitors ranging in size from 10.4 to 65 inches are currently flying on various types of aircraft including those from Gulfstream, Airbus and Boeing. Gulfstream and ACS have been developing the G650 Monitors and Touchscreens since 2009. They will be standard on the Gulfstream G650.
Welcome to our WEB site where you may find much information about ACS, our Products and Product Support. Our growth since inception has allowed us to design and produce products as the technology changes.
Specializing in LCD Video Monitors allows us not to be distracted in other areas and therefore maintain our expertise in this product area.
We have this success due to our clear understanding of the aviation industry and the oversight provided by the FAA and other Country/State authorities to provide equipment that is "SAFE" for the Passengers and Crew of Business and Commercial aircraft in their environment.
Since 1999, when ACS offered Plasma Video Displays for the Business Jet Market, through today, we have offered the latest Video Display technology available. Our Video Displays have gotten Thinner, Lighter, Brighter with Better resolution. Today, it is basically the LED Backlighting that allows for more thinness, less weight and less power usage.

I recently had a Septo-Rhinoplasty and asked my surgeon to file down my dorsal hump while i was under, i got my cast removed yesterday after 10 days and it appears my hump is still there, when i was in his office i asked him did he even shave it down but he seems to think he did. is this just mass amounts of swelling or did he not shave it down? I have the review letter on all of what he did but it doesn't make sense to me as its all in doctors terms,
Dorsal Hump still there after Septo-rhinoplasty? (photo)
Doctor Answers 3
It does look like your hump is stil there, but some of it can be swelling. Give it time to heal, you might need a revision.
Is the photo preoperative or postoperative? At any rate, there will be swelling present and there will be additional change in your nose as the months go by.
Kenneth Hughes, MD

The photo clearly demonstrates a hump. If it is very early after surgery you should give it time for healing to take its course. Given the profile view I am doubtful though that this hump will go away.
Best is to monitor your progress with your surgeon and discuss revision rhinoplasty not earlier than 6 months after your surgery.

• "Not a pollutant" A recent US Supreme Court ruling regarding the transfer of "pollutants" from one portion of a river to another is a win for miners. The Natural Resources Defense Council sued the Los Angeles County Flood Control District, alleging the county was polluting a stream when it took polluted water from one portion of a river and transferred it to another portion of the same river through a concrete channel. The Ninth Circuit had ruled that the water transfer violated the Clean Water Act. In a unanimous decision, the US Supreme Court reversed the decision of the Ninth Circuit. The Court stated, "...the transfer of polluted water between two parts of the same water body does not constitute a discharge of pollutants under the CWA. 541 U. S., at 109–112. We derived that determination from the CWA's text, which defines the term 'discharge of a pollutant' to mean 'any addition of any pollutant to navigable waters from any point source.' 33 U.S.C. §1362(12). Under a common understanding of the meaning of the word 'add,' no pollutants are 'added' to a water body when water is merely transferred between different portions of that water body." The full Supreme Court decision is available online:www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/12pdf/11-460_3ea4.pdf One of the major regulatory tools agencies have used against in-stream placer miners—and suction dredgers in particular—has been struck down by this decision! Other courts have also blocked overzealous water regulators. In Virginia, District Judge Liam O'Grady ruled that the EPA exceeded its authority by attempting to regulate stormwater runoff as a pollutant. And in Siskiyou County, California, Superior Court Judge Karen Dixon found that the California Department of Fish & Game overstepped its authority by requiring permits for farmers and ranchers to take water from the Shasta and Scott Rivers. • Thank you Senator Sessions Our hats are off to Senator Jeff Sessions (R-Alabama) for stopping a wildlife bill comprised of nineteen separate measures that would have placed thousands of additional public lands off-limits to miners and other public land users. Sessions called for a procedural vote on the budget impacts of the bill, and sixty votes were needed to keep it alive. Fifty senators voted for it, and the bill died. Before we let our guard down, realize that there will surely be an omnibus lands bill proposed in 2013. These bills always include numerous items in an effort to appease a large number of legislators to get the bill passed. You should also expect to see the BLM attempt to enact mining law reform with the help of like-minded legislators. The previous BLM Director, Bob Abbey, recommended that gold, silver, lead, zinc, copper, uranium and molybdenum be subject to leasing with a 5% royalty during his March 2012 presentation to the House Appropriations Committee. • California suction dredging The court challenge of the current suction gold dredging moratorium in California continues along—albeit way too slowly for our liking. The next hearing has been rescheduled for 8:30am on February 13. Miners are encouraged to attend to show their support. The address is: Rancho Cucamonga Superior Court 8303 Haven Ave Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730 Judge Gilbert G. Ochoa Department R8 In last month's column, we mentioned that Brandon Renehart, a suction dredger in Plumas County, California, is challenging his criminal citation for suction dredging without a permit with the assistance of James Buchal. However, we neglected to give credit to Public Lands for the People for funding this effort! • EPA uses secret email accounts EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson announced her resignation in December, citing "new challenges, time with my family and new opportunities to make a difference" for the move. But there is more to the story. In response to a lawsuit filed by the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), the EPA acknowledged that Jackson was utilizing an email alias. It's an obvious attempt to avoid public disclosure when requests were made under the Freedom of Information Act, said CEI attorney Chris Horner. The EPA has since admitted that Jackson corresponded regularly with other officials using the alias "Richard Windsor." Horner stated the agency has been using secret email accounts since the Clinton administration when Carol Browner was the administrator. An EPA spokesman confirmed this practice was the norm, stating the agency has been issuing multiple email addresses to administrators for the past decade. The EPA has turned over the first 2,100 email messages to CEI that used Jackson's alias, and another 9,000 are to be released shortly.

During a debate last week with Mackinac Center President Joe Lehman, John Bayerl, a teachers union member from Dearborn standing in for UAW President Bob King said, "I don't believe our schools will run without collective bargaining."
It's not surprising that a long-time school unionist might see the world this way, but a larger perspective shows it to be false.*
Stay Engaged
For example, according to the Michigan Department of Education, there are more than 700 private and independent schools currently operating in Michigan with no collective bargaining — and many doing so quite well. (Public school teachers are actually more likely to send their children to these types of schools than the rest of the public.)
Perhaps Mr. Bayerl meant that only taxpayer-funded Michigan schools cannot operate without being mandated to bargain with unions. But that's not true either: More than 300 public charter schools are also thriving with no union and no collective bargaining. Enrollment in these schools grew more than 55 percent from 2002 to 2008 based solely on parents choosing to send their children to them.
And that's just Michigan. Around the country, seven states outright forbid collective bargaining in public schools, including Virginia, North Carolina, Texas and Arizona: That's around 20,000 public schools that somehow manage to keep their doors open without the burden of forced unionization.
Another nine states have no collective bargaining laws for public school employees, including Missouri, Colorado, Utah and Kentucky. Add another 11,500 schools to the list of those running without forced bargaining.
This is yet another example of school unionists' skewed worldview, which amounts to, "Either it's done our way or it cannot be done at all." As an esteemed former Democratic Senator once said, "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts."
*Despite claims to the contrary, if the Protect Our Jobs initiative makes it on to the November ballot and defeated, collective bargaining for government union employees will continue to exist.

Norwich – A scheduled tax foreclosure auction of the former Big Y shopping plaza on Sturtevant Street was canceled today after the owner paid off the more than $261,500 in back taxes and legal fees owed to the city.
The exact amount paid by owner Zabro Properties LLC was not available today.
The plaza, with addresses of 204, 57-61 and 68 Sturtevant St., had been home to the Big Y supermarket, a fitness center and several smaller businesses.
At the time a New London Superior Court judge ordered the auction sale, the debt to the city was $261,500, and the law firm Cohn-Birnbaum & Shea held a mortgage of $50,040.
The market value of the building is $800,000, according to the court-order appraisal, but nearly the entire property sits in the Yantic River 100-year floodplain, making redevelopment difficult, city planning director Peter Davis said.

EclipseLink DBWS with JRockit JVM
EclipseLink DBWS deployment may fail in JRockit VM environment. When generating a WAR file for deployment, the EclipseLink Database Web Services (DBWS) design-time utility uses a version of ASM for code generation which is not compatible with later versions of JRockit. This results in a deployment failure with the SOAP message exception Illegal target of jump or branch.
Note: This issue does not occur when running the application server in a Sun JVM environment.
To generate a DBWS deployment WAR file that will successfully deploy in a JRockit JVM environment, use this procedure:
Note: You can complete this procedure using an IDE, such as Eclipse or Oracle JDeveloper.
- Create a new project. Add the following libraries to the classpath:
- Java EE
- JAX-WS 2.0 Library
- jlib/eclipselink.jar
- JDBC Library
- utils/dbws/eclipselink-dbwsutils.jar
- utils/dbws/javax.wsdl_1.6.2.v200806030405.jar
- Import the dbws-bulider.xml file and add it to the project classpath.
- Create a new file named META-INF/services/org.eclipse.persistence.tools.dbws.DBWSPackager in the project's src directory. The file should contain the following, single line:
Add this newly created file to the project classpath. - Use the DBWSBuilder utility to generate the web service artifacts in the specified directory:
- Main class: org.eclipse.persistence.tools.dbws.DBWSBuilder
- Arguments: -builderFile dbws-builder.xml -stageDir . -packageAs jdev
- Rebuild the project. This will generate a DBWSProvider.class file.
- Use the web service artifacts to generate a WAR deployment profile. The .war file should contain the following:
- WEB-INF/web.xml
- WEB-INF/classes/_dbws/DBWSProvider.class
- WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/eclipselink-dbws.xml
- WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/eclipselink-dbws-or.xml
- WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/eclipselink-dbws-ox.xml
- WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/eclipselink-dbws-sessions.xml
- WEB-INF/wsdl/eclipselink-dbws.wsd
- WEB-INF/wsdl/eclipselink-dbws-schema.xsd
- You can now deploy the WAR file to your application server.

This font, called 'Isabella' is based on the calligraphic hand used in the Isabella Breviary, made around 1497, in Holland, for Isabella of Castille, the first queen of united Spain. It has all of ASCII, Latin-1, Latin Extended A, about a third of Latin Extended B, Latin Extended Additional, plus punctuation, and should work for most languages that use the Roman alphabet. Modern characters (@, for example) were drawn as best possible. The primary design goal was to make such characters look like they were done with a calligraphic pen; the secondary goal was to look like the other characters of the font. The copyright sign, for example, is made by shrinking down the letter "c" and placing it inside a circle. It also has a Euro symbol. 'Isabella' is available in TrueType and PosctScript (author notes that the PostScript version acts oddly in on-screen use).

They only fit a few categories, and those categories are either pure amazement at how great they are or pure amazement at how bad a movie could be. Let's talk about the bad ones. (In advance of the Jalopnik Film Festival we're doing a week of posts focused on cars and films. Remember, you can still buy tickets here.) I can't stand Driven. Sylvester Stallone wanted to make an F1 movie, but he couldn't get enough details. So instead he made one based on CART. Awesome, they need the exposure, this should be amazing. Advertisement Advertisement Problem is, it's not amazing. It's one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Maybe it's because I'm a pretty intense IndyCar fan, but everything about the movie makes me mad. Picking up quarters with a tire? Winning a race on a broken suspension? Insane crashes into a lake? Cars that obviously aren't CART cars running on track? Too much shifting? They drive IndyCars on the streets of Chicago?Give me a break. Oh, and the acting is wooden and awful and Stallone doesn't appear to know a thing about what is going on.What say you? What's the worst car movie of all time.Reply431 repliesLeave a reply

« My Iranian problem…and ours | Hope for Palestinian refugees…and Israel? »
Palestinian poll: Is the glass half full? Or half empty?
By Dan Fleshler | March 27, 2007
Remember, the title of this blog is "Realistic Dove."
According to Reuters, Palestinians appear to be split down the middle about whether the unity government should accept the international community's demands about recognizing Israel, adhering to prior agreements and renouncing violence.
Polls of the Palestinian community are notoriously sensitive to events on the ground. But even though 48% want the unity government to meet these conditions, the poll is troubling. Many left wing Israelis, Americans and others want Israel to negotiate with the unity government without preconditions. Their notion is that there is something intrinsically valuable about talking to the enemy. I usually agree with them wholeheartedly. I still do, but with half a heart.
If Israel talks to the unity government without preconditions, wouldn't that validate the notion that it is better for the Hamasniks to disregard what the international community wants? Wouldn't that increase the percentage of people who support Hamas' refusal to recognize prior agreements? Wouldn't it improve Hamas' standing, which is the last thing we need?

Victoria Says:
March 27th, 2007 at 3:55 pmIsrael has no choice but to talk to Hamas, which was democratically elected. Why is it any different than the decision to talk to the PLO? Why shouldn't there be a new version of the Madrid Conference, where Hamas would be in a hotel room down the street?. The Israelis would look ridiculous but maybe the Kadima leaders could save face and pretend that they are not talking to Hamas.
Richard Silverstein Says:
March 28th, 2007 at 3:23 amI think you're dancing on the head of a pin on this one. You're investing yourself in minute questions of political oneupsmanship–who's on top & who's not. But let's keep our eye on the ball. People are dying every day on both sides. Gazans are leading lives of desperation & misery under virtual international siege. Who cares whether Hamas gains pts. or not w. Palestinians.
Let's just talk to whoever we need to talk to bring us closer to peace. Do you think you will ever get to peace w/o including Hamas in the deliberations? I've read that Israeli intelligence says it would be a disaster for Abbas to call elections right now because Fatah has essentially disintegrated as a viable party. Hamas would win hands down. So you essentially don't have a viable opposition to Hamas. If you try to angle Hamas out of the political debate it won't end well for Israel.

So I agree with you that there is no chance to make progress without including Hamas in the deliberations. But, like the Iran issue discussed below in my response to you, we need to approach negotiations with our eyes wide open. It would be a disaster for Israel, the Israeli peace camp and the entire region if Hamas gained a firm hold on power and grew more popular. Its popularity would increase if it participated in negotiations while clinging to its refusal to meet any of the conditions. Is that a price worth paying? Yes. But the price should be acknowledged.

Lean Turkey Pasta Salad
Be the first to review
Recipe by Mami J
This recipe was found in Sunset magazine. It's very lean and fresh-tasting. It's hard to find seasoned rice vinegar where I live, so I've substituted 4 tbs white wine vinegar mixed with 1 tsp sugar and 1/2 tsp salt. It's not the same flavor, but it still tastes good. If it is made ahead, the pasta may need a couple tablespoons to moisten it before mixing it with the rest of the ingredients.
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb dried radiatore (any spiral shaped pasta) or 1 lb rotini pasta (any spiral shaped pasta)
- 6 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
- 1⁄4 cup chicken broth
- 2 lbs roma tomatoes, cored and chopped
- 3 tablespoons prepared capers, drained
- 3⁄4 lb cooked turkey breast or 3⁄4 lb smoked turkey breast, cut in strips
- 1⁄4 cup minced fresh basil
- salt, to taste
- Cook pasta in 3-4 quarts boiling water until tender to bite, 12-15 minutes. Drain. Cover with cold water and drain again. Repeat until pasta is cool. Drain well and mix with the vinegar and 1/4 cup broth.
- In a separate bowl, mix tomatoes with capers. If making up to a day ahead, store pasta and tomato mixtures separately in the refrigerator.
- Place pasta in a large platter or bowl. Mix in the rest of the ingredients, adding salt to taste.

Matt Zaba
Birthday: 1983-07-14 | Position: G |
Eligible for draft: 2001 | Catches: Left |
Drafted: | Height: 6-1 |
Acquired: Free agent, 2007 | Weight: 185 lbs. |
Probability of Success
Drafted 8th Round, #231 overall, 2003 by Los Angeles.
2003-04: Joined Colorado College as an over-aged freshman and impressed coaches early in training camp. Started the season as the back-up before taking over starting duties due to an illness to Curtis McElhinney. Acknowledging his tremendous impact, Zaba was named to the WCHA All-Rookie Team in March.
2004-05: Zaba's stellar play forced a platoon goal despite the prescence of a three-year starting senior. Jumped out to a quick start while posting a stellar GAA and save percentage to begin the year. Cooled off slightly as the year went on but finished strong. Zaba will assume the fulltime starting duties in net next season.
2005-06: In his first role as the no. 1 goaltender, Zaba showed god poise but may have worn down under the added minutes. His goals against average and save percentage were college career worsts. Zaba jumped out to an 8-1-0 record before fading down the stretch with a 5-9-1 record to conclude the season and appearing in 36 of the team's 42 games.
2006-07: In his final year at Colorado College, Zaba put in another solid performance, and turned enough heads to have the Rangers sign him to a free agent contract on August 20, 2007.
2007-08: The Rangers had five signed professional netminders besides Henrik Lundqvist going into the 2007-08 season. Zaba was sent to the ECHL Charlotte Checkers to begin the season behind former Rangers prospect Chris Holt. After appearing in only nine games in three months, he was loaned to the Idaho Steelheads to get regular playing time. Once he started to play every weekend, Zaba became one of the best goaltenders in the league, at one point enjoying a six-game win streak and being named the Goaltender of the Week in late Janaury 2008.


text: In her own words........ One of the best things about teaching at DWC is when students move on and later invite their "beloved teachers" to come and see them on mission. I've visited former students in five states and three foreign countries, but the most exciting one was when I traveled to see Fr. Higinio Yescuas, SVD, during my 2002 sabbatical to San Juanito Parish in Oaxaca, Mexico (He liked to say he was "the boss of me" as I taught basic English to parishioners and observed SVDs on mission).

Debate The Digital Economy Bill
This week, Harriet Harman, leader of the House of Commons, received thousands of emails. Over the last week MPs have been sent more than 14,000 emails opposing the bill. Yet the government is still planning to force the bill into law - ignoring all opposition. Please write to your MP now and urge them to do all they can to stop this bill bring forced into law. Put in your postcode to get started - it takes just two minutes
The draconian law is opposed by industry experts, internet service providers (like TalkTalk and BT), web giants including Google, Yahoo and Ebay and many other groups. Despite all this opposition, the Government is trying to rush it through quietly just before the election without proper debate – without a chance for us to voice our opposition. Email your MP now and urge them to stop the government rushing this law through.
There's plenty to oppose in the Digital Economy Bill, it gives the government the ability to disconnect millions. Schools, libraries and businesses could see their connection cut if their pupils, readers of customers infringe any copyright. But one group likes it, the music industry. In a leaked memo a few days ago they admitted the only way to get the bill through would be to rush it through without a real parliamentary debate. Let's stop that happening.
We've teamed up with
Open Rights Group
to make it easy for you to write to your MP urging them to stop the Government rushing the bill through. It'll take you less than 2 minutes. Just enter your postcode above (so we can find your MP) and click "participate" to get started.

Written by Anthony Moujaes
Park Congregational United Church of Christ in Toledo, Ohio, has stood in solidarity with Muslim brothers and sisters for more than a decade, since 9/11. On Sunday, the congregation will once again join its Muslim neighbors in support, after an arsonist set fire to the Islamic Center of Greater Toledo.
"Eleven years ago we pledged to be good neighbors," the church's senior pastor, the Rev. Ed Heilman, said. At that time Park Congregational became part of the MultiFaith Council of Northwest Ohio, an organization with Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist and Hindu participants whose interfaith work has continued for more than a decade.
Park Congregational members will participate in a 2 p.m. service on Sunday, Oct. 7 at the Islamic Center. The service will likely take place outdoors because the building is uninhabitable. It will take about three months to repair the damage, said Mahjabeen Islam, president of the Islamic Center. At the interfaith service, Heilman hopes to do something beyond prayers for healing and expressing vocal support to the Muslim community in Northwest Ohio. "What I'm hoping will be different is to make a cash donation of some kind," he said. "I'll encourage others to do the same."
In a statement about Sunday's interfaith worship, the Islamic Center said "[a]n attack on one house of worship is akin to an attack on all. Our wounds will (God-willing) heal with the love and compassion of our friends and neighbors of all faiths."
This wasn't the first time the Islamic Center in Toledo was the target of vandalism. In 2001, in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, the center's windows were shot out. In response at that time, Heilman said thousands of people showed up at an event to place their hands on the mosque as the community sought to heal together.
A white, middle-aged man has been charged with arson for setting the Sunday, Sept. 30 fire. Police say he allegedly poured gasoline in the center of the main floor where men worship. Sprinklers quickly put out the flames, but the amount of water has damaged the building.
Every religious community in the area has done something to speak out against the act, Heilman said. "We don't know the motives of [the suspect]… I do know it was a bad thing. We're ready to show our neighbors we love them."
There's also a national response from planned by Sojourners, a Washington, D.C.-based Christian coalition, involving an advertising campaign. The organization said it will erect a billboard near the mosque that reads "Love Your Muslim Neighbors."

Jazz can be intimidating, especially to the non-musician. Much of the criticism is theoretical and mathematic, written in a clubby language that tunes out those of us who can't recognize an ascending I-II-V pattern or a B-flat minor blues. Yet even some of the most accomplished players insist the music should be felt more than dissected, that it speaks more directly to the soul than to the mind.
Ben Ratliff's Coltrane: The Story of a Sound not only bridges this heart-brain divide in a way that makes nonexperts want to keep on reading, it also illuminates the chasm in the context of a towering figure and his considerable shadow.
Ratliff is a jazz critic for the New York Times. He has the vocab and the knowledge, and Story of a Sound has passages that will give the uninitiated twinges of insecurity and unworthiness.
Fight through it. Ask a musician friend a few questions. Accept that you might not get it all. What you'll find is a sharp, concise (217 pages) cultural study that speaks to the fan as well as the artist and the wonk.
Coltrane, the tenor and soprano saxophone titan who died in 1967 at the age of 41, has inspired enough volumes to fill the Village Vanguard. So keep in mind that Story of a Sound isn't yet another biography, though it has biographical elements.
The first half is the story of an artist's evolution, from sideman to supreme innovator to musical holy man. The second half dives into his all-encompassing legacy and influence.
In Ratliff's accounting, Coltrane's premature death left the jazz world in a state of flux, where traditionalists and revolutionaries staked out territory in discord and harmony with Coltrane's more radical advances. If you played jazz saxophone in the post-Trane era, some part of you either embraced or ran from Coltrane's sound. There was before Trane and there was after.
Ratliff stakes out the basics of that sound early on. Coltrane's music "is marked by remarkable technique, strength in all registers of the tenor and soprano saxophones, slightly sharp intonation, serene intensity, and a rapid, mobile exploration of chords, not just melody." But his sound evolved through his support of Miles Davis and Thelonious Monk, the groundbreaking chord changes of "Giant Steps" and the formation of his "classic quartet" with bassist Jimmy Garrison, drummer Elvin Jones and pianist McCoy Tyner.
We see Coltrane kick heroin, find God and praise him with the mind-blowing suite "A Love Supreme." We go through the years shortly before his death, marked by the large-group experimentation that alienated traditionalists and empiricists.
And then things get really interesting. The final 100 pages assess Coltrane's earth-shattering influence on jazz as Ratliff enters the fray of what could be called the Coltrane Wars. These were waged between critics, often white, who disdained the free-form forays and monotony of his later period, and his defenders, often black, who insisted that such traits transcended Western ideals of form and structure.
Take the trumpeter and educator Charles Moore's lacerating response to Don Ellis' review of The John Coltrane Quartet Plays Chim Chim Cheree. The critic took Coltrane to task for "playing chorus after chorus, solo after solo on only one idea—that of continually varying scale patterns and arpeggios."
To Moore this was just one more instance of cultural hegemony: "The feeling of this music is more important to me than the technical matters; a feeling that you, Ellis, have insulted, thereby declaring yourself as another of my many white enemies. And for that, along with your ideals and artifacts from ancient history, you must die."
Here is the heart-mind schism in a nutshell, couched in the black power rhetoric that positioned Coltrane as a largely posthumous ideological symbol of the `60s.
Like other great critics, Ratliff analyzes art within a larger cultural framework, but without shrinking the art. Ratliff knows Coltrane, but he also knows the poet Amiri Baraka and the critic Stanley Crouch, the novelist Herman Melville and the philosopher Edmund Burke.
So Story of a Sound isn't just the story of a sound. It's a piece of jazz criticism that passionately questions and enhances the role of jazz criticism. It walks that line between the artiste and the dilettante. No need to be intimidated.

Ear Canal Problems (Swimmer's Ear)
Skip to the navigationTopic Overview
Swimmer's ear (otitis externa) is a painful inflammation and infection of the ear canal. It occurs when the protective film that covers the ear canal (lipid layer) is removed. This causes the ear canal to look red and swollen. The ear canal may be narrower than normal and is tender when the outside of the ear is gently pulled up and back.
Swimmer's ear may develop when water, sand, dirt, or other debris gets into the ear canal. Since it often occurs when excess water enters the ear canal, a common name for this inflammation is "swimmer's ear." If you have had swimmer's ear in the past, you are more likely to get it again.
A rare but serious infection called malignant external otitis can develop if bacteria invade the bones inside the ear canal and spread to the base of the skull. Not many people get this infection—it is mainly seen in older adults who also have diabetes, people who have HIV, and children who have impaired immune systems—but it can be fatal. Symptoms include ear pain with sudden facial paralysis, hoarseness, and throat pain. Antibiotics are used to treat this infection.
Other causes of inflammation or infection of the ear canal include:
- Allergies.
- Bony overgrowths in the ear canal called exostoses.
- Bubble baths, soaps, and shampoos.
- Cleaning the ear canal harshly or with a sharp object.
- Headphones inserted into the ear.
- Scratching the ear canal with a cotton swab, bobby pin, fingernail, or other sharp object.
- Skin problems, such as eczema, psoriasis, or seborrhea.
- Sweating.
You are more likely to get swimmer's ear if:
- You have a very narrow or hairy ear canal.
- You have earwax stuck in the ear canal (impacted) because you commonly use cotton swabs that may push the ear wax deeper into the ear canal.
Symptoms can include itching, pain, and a feeling of fullness in the ear. Your ear canal may be swollen. You may have moderate to severe pain, drainage, or hearing loss. Unlike a middle ear infection (acute otitis media), the pain is worse when you chew, press on the "tag" in front of the ear, or wiggle your earlobe.
You may be able to prevent swimmer's ear. Symptoms often get better or go away with home treatment.
Check your symptoms to decide if and when you should see a doctor.
Check Your Symptoms
Make an Appointment
Based on your answers, the problem may not improve without medical care.
- Make an appointment to see your doctor in the next 1 to 2 weeks.
- If appropriate, try home treatment while you are waiting for the appointment.
- If symptoms get worse or you have any concerns, call your doctor. You may need care sooner.
Try Home Treatment
You have answered all the questions. Based on your answers, you may be able to take care of this problem at home.
- Try home treatment to relieve the symptoms.
- Call your doctor if symptoms get worse or you have any concerns (for example, if symptoms are not getting better as you would expect). You may need care sooner.
Many things can affect how your body responds to a symptom and what kind of care you may need. These include:
- Your age. Babies and older adults tend to get sicker quicker.
- Your overall health. If you have a condition such as diabetes, HIV, cancer, or heart disease, you may need to pay closer attention to certain symptoms and seek care sooner.
- Medicines you take. Certain medicines, herbal remedies, and supplements can cause symptoms or make them worse.
- Recent health events, such as surgery or injury. These kinds of events can cause symptoms afterwards or make them more serious.
- Your health habits and lifestyle, such as eating and exercise habits, smoking, alcohol or drug use, sexual history, and travel.
Seek Care Now
Based on your answers, you may need care right away. The problem is likely to get worse without medical care.
- Call your doctor now to discuss the symptoms and arrange for care.
- If you cannot reach your doctor or you don't have one, seek care in the next hour.
- You do not need to call an
ambulance unless:
- You cannot travel safely either by driving yourself or by having someone else drive you.
- You are in an area where heavy traffic or other problems may slow you down.
Seek Care Today
Based on your answers, you may need care soon. The problem probably will not get better without medical care.
- Call your doctor today to discuss the symptoms and arrange for care.
- If you cannot reach your doctor or you don't have one, seek care today.
- If it is evening, watch the symptoms and seek care in the morning.
- If the symptoms get worse, seek care sooner.
Certain health conditions and medicines weaken the immune system's ability to fight off infection and illness. Some examples in children are:
- Diseases such as diabetes, cystic fibrosis, sickle cell disease, and congenital heart disease.
- Steroid medicines, which are used to treat a variety of conditions.
- Medicines taken after organ transplant.
- Chemotherapy and radiation therapy for cancer.
- Not having a spleen.
Certain health conditions and medicines weaken the immune system's ability to fight off infection and illness. Some examples in adults are:
- Diseases such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease, and HIV/AIDS.
- Long-term alcohol and drug problems.
- Steroid medicines, which may be used to treat a variety of conditions.
- Chemotherapy and radiation therapy for cancer.
- Other medicines used to treat autoimmune disease.
- Medicines taken after organ transplant.
- Not having a spleen.
Symptoms of an inner ear infection may include:
- Pain deep in the ear. (External ear infections may itch or hurt in the outer part of the ear, but not deep in the ear.)
- Fever.
Symptoms of an infection in the ear canal (swimmer's ear) may include:
- Pain, especially when you touch your ear, wiggle your earlobe, or chew.
- Redness or swelling in the ear canal.
- Drainage from the ear.
Vertigo is the feeling that you or your surroundings are moving when there is no actual movement. It may feel like spinning, whirling, or tilting. Vertigo may make you sick to your stomach, and you may have trouble standing, walking, or keeping your balance.
Home Treatment
Some home treatment can help swimmer's ear. But it is important to see a doctor first. If your doctor says it's okay, you can try the following:
- Gently rinse your ear using a bulb syringe and a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and rubbing alcohol. Make sure the flushing solution is body temperature. Inserting cool or hot fluids in the ear may cause dizziness.
- If your ear is itchy, try nonprescription swimmer's eardrops, such as Swim-Ear. Use them before and after swimming or getting your ears wet. Read and follow all instructions on the label, and learn how to insert eardrops safely.
- To ease ear
pain, apply a warm washcloth or a heating pad set on low. There may be some
drainage when the heat melts earwax. For more information about earwax removal,
see the topic
- Do not use a heating pad when you are in bed. You may fall asleep and burn yourself.
- Do not use a heating pad on a child.
- Do not use ear candles. They have no proven benefit in the removal of earwax or other objects in the ear and can cause serious injury.
Try a nonprescription medicine to help treat your fever or pain: |
Talk to your child's doctor before switching back and forth between doses of acetaminophen and ibuprofen. When you switch between two medicines, there is a chance your child will get too much medicine. |
Be sure to follow these safety tips when you use a nonprescription medicine: |
Symptoms to watch for during home treatment
Call your doctor if any of the following occur during home treatment:
- The ear canal, the opening to the ear canal, the external ear, or the skin around the external ear becomes swollen, red, or very painful.
- Dizziness or unsteadiness develops.
- Bleeding or discharge from the ear develops.
- Ear symptoms last longer than 1 week.
- Symptoms become more severe or frequent.
In most cases, it is best to leave your ears alone and let them maintain their own healthy, natural balance.
- Do not scratch or clean the inside of the ear with cotton swabs, bobby pins, your fingernail, or other objects.
- Removable earplugs may be used to keep moisture out of the ear canal. But prolonged use of earplugs can make your ears hurt and itch, and the earplugs can push earwax deeper into the canal. If this happens, your ears are more likely to get infected.
- Keep soap, bubble bath, and shampoo out of the ear canal. Do not let a child lie down in the bathtub with his or her ears underwater. These products can cause itching and irritation.
- Keep your ears dry.
- After swimming or showering, shake your head to remove water from the ear canal.
- Gently dry your ears with the corner of a tissue or towel, or use a blow-dryer on its lowest setting. Hold the dryer several inches (centimeters) from the ear.
- Put a few drops of rubbing alcohol or rubbing alcohol mixed with an equal amount of white vinegar into the ear after swimming or showering.
- Wiggle the outside of the ear to let the liquid enter the ear canal, then tilt your head and let it drain out.
- You can also use nonprescription drops, such as Swim-Ear, to prevent swimmer's ear.
- If you use public swimming pools or hot tubs, ask about the chlorine and pH testing of the pool. You are less likely to get swimmer's ear from facilities that maintain good control of their pool testing and treatment.
- Do not swim in dirty water or locations that have been closed because of pollution.
- Follow any instructions your doctor has given you to treat skin problems—such as eczema, psoriasis, or seborrhea—that may cause ear canal irritation.
Preparing For Your Appointment
To prepare for your appointment, see the topic Making the Most of Your Appointment.
You can help your doctor diagnose and treat your condition by being prepared to answer the following questions:
- Have you done anything recently that may have caused your ear canal to become infected, such as cleaning your ears or swimming?
- Have you had a history of ear itching, pain, or other
symptoms? Describe your symptom:
- When did it start?
- Do you have problems with the inside or the outside of your ear?
- Are your symptoms constant, or do they come and go?
- Does anything make your ear feel better or worse?
- Did you put anything into your ear before the problem started?
- Do you have drainage from the ear? What does the drainage look and smell like?
- Have you had a fever?
- Are you dizzy or do you feel unsteady?
- Have you had problems like this before? If so, how was it treated?
- What home treatment measures have you used? Did they help?
- What prescription and nonprescription medicine have you tried? Did they help?
- Do you have any health risks?

PROS is a leading supplier of Speed Queen Laundry parts in the USA. Our warehouse in Minneapolis Minnesota contains over half a million dollars in inventory. Replacement parts for Laundry and Dry-cleaning equipment is our entire business focus.
We have over 30 years of experience servicing the needs of customers around the world. We have the largest parts department in North America which is centrally located in Minneapolis Minnesota for fast delivery of almost any parts requirement. If your need is urgent and we do not have the part in stock, we can usually have it drop shipped from warehouses located throughout the country.
We are extremely competitive not only in price but in quality and service. Our helpful and well trained sales staff can help you navigate the often difficult process of determining which part is best for your requirement. We offer only factory original replacement parts, no cheap knock offs or imitations.
Try our parts search below to reveal the easiest method of identifying, verifying and ordering your replacement parts. Create your own account and have valuable access to your past ordering history, special pricing, package tracking and a wide variety of other services.
Speed Queen part numbers can be as simple as five numbers such as 93020 or they can be a mix of letters and numbers such as M400447. Enter these numbers exactly as they are written. PROS part numbers are almost always in the format of three digits separated by a dash and followed by another three digits such as 150-001.
It is possible to search the PROS database by using keywords which might be found in the description of the part. This process should be the last resort because finding the correct descriptive term that we used to describe the part can be tricky. Start with one word and if too many results are displayed, try entering two words separated by a comma. Example: Enter "Steam" to reveal over 1,000 results but entering "Steam, Valve" narrows the results to less than one hundred.
