After meeting for more than 40 years in various rented spaces, the Upstate Sikh Society finally has a place to call home.
After meeting for more than 40 years in various rented spaces, the Upstate Sikh Society finally has a place to call home.
A new 3,600 square-foot Sikh Temple is now open in Duncan and will serve as the gathering place for about 45 to 50 worshipers from Greenville and Spartanburg counties.
"We are very excited about having a home," said treasurer Daljit Kalsi, who moved from India to Greenville in the 80s.
According to the Encyclopedia of World Religions, Sikhism was founded in India in the late 15th century by Guru Nanak and is the youngest and least known of the world's monotheistic religious traditions. Though historically associated with the Punjab, a region that connects southern Asia with the Middle East, more than 2 million Sikhs now live and work in North America, Western Europe and many former British colonies. Worldwide, there are more than 18 million Sikhs.
As the following in the Upstate grew, Kalsi said it took time and money to open the area's first Sikh Temple.
"We all (in the society) started raising money the first week of April in 2004," he said. "This has been a whole community effort. Everyone helped out."
In November 2011, construction finally began on the $800,000 temple, which is named Gurdwara Nanak Darbar, after the religion's founder. The society decided to build in Duncan because congregants are divided almost evenly between Greenville and Spartanburg.
"Instead of raising the money to build a temple in both counties, we just built one in the middle," Kalsi said.
The location will be more convenient for congregants previously traveling much greater distances to worship.
According to a news release distributed by the Upstate Sihk Society, the new temple is "a decades old dream for a small, but thriving religious community in the Upstate."
On a recent Friday, the aroma of Indian food drifted through the temple. A group of worshipers with turbans wrapped around their heads sat barefoot on the floor and listened as a female congregant read from the Adi Granth, the canonical scripture of the Sikhs.
The turbans are worn out of respect to God, Kalsi said.
The community is invited learn more about Indian culture and Sikhism on Sunday at an opening celebration from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
"The community has been very nice to us," Kalsi said. "We have been really pleased. No problems. We are really excited to be here, and we want to share our excitement with others in the community."
The celebration promises a chance to experience the group's music, culture and religious traditions.
Free Indian food will also be available. But Kalsi warned visitors shouldn't expect to find meat on the table.
"We don't smoke, we don't drink and we don't eat meat," Kalsi said.

The battle of District 7A-1 aces lasted less than two innings.
Forest touched up Gainesville Buchholz starter Phoenix Sanders (5-2) for four runs, chasing the Bobcat right-hander after he retired just five batters.
Anthony Mazzurco, meanwhile, was up to his old tricks. The Forest High left-hander — who delivered veteran coach Wayne Yancey his 600th career win 11 days ago — tossed a complete game as the Wildcats knocked off Buchholz, 6-2, to move their district mark to 3-0 on the season.
The senior scattered five hits and struck out four to remain perfect on the year with a 6-0 record.
Longtime assistant coach Tony Cayson filled in for Yancey, who missed his second straight game with an illness Tuesday night. And he, like the Wildcats' veteran skipper, pointed to the effort of the gritty lefty who approached 100 pitches, but refused to give up the baseball.
"I thought Mazzurco set the tone," Cayson said. "He got in a little jam at the end, but I thought he battled all night. He didn't want to come out of the game. He said he wanted to finish it, so we let him go a little longer than he normally does."
Buchholz (13-5 overall, 1-2 in 7A-1) managed to load the bases and push across its second run of the game on Dakota Turner's seventh inning RBI single, but it was too little, too late for the Bobcats, who dug an early 5-0 hole.
Forest blew it open in the second when the 'Cats sent nine men to the plate. Catcher Zach Davis and first baseman Richard Legasse each delivered RBI singles at the bottom of the order, and No. 2 hitter Sam Armstrong's two-run hit capped off the four-run frame.
Freshman Kirby McMullen hit his first varsity homer off reliever Fowler Brown in the third to push the lead to 5-0.
"We're getting some help from the bottom," Cayson said of the Wildcat lineup. "Everybody's looking for our 1-4, 1-5 guys (to do the damage), but tonight we had Kirby get a big hit and Legasse, hitting in the eight-hole, got a big hit.
"Josh (Greene) gets on for us and Sam Armstrong is swinging the bat really well. I think, collectively, the hitting is getting better at the right time of year."
Center fielder Quinlan Washington's RBI single got the Bobcats on the board in the fifth, but Forest answered in the sixth when Greene, who had a pair of hits and a stolen base, plated Davis (two hits, two runs), with a solid RBI single.
Forest (15-2) travels to West Port tonight for a non-district game before seeing Buchholz again Friday night. Right-hander Blake Waldren (4-2, 1.29 ERA) is tabbed to start the rematch with the Bobcats in Gainesville.

And that pot hole was nasty, caught out my mate who now has a broken front campagnolo bora wheel, poor bloke.
That one nearly caught me... not many riders were keen on hand signals IMHO and I saw it just in time to bunny-hop over and then signal but I did hear someone a few bikes back hit it.
Maybe a suggestion for BikeSA to provide a flyer with riding "etiquette" with numbers for these rides ?
I was planing the 65km and thn a ride home but ended up following the route till the 95km mark before peeling off home so 118km all up.

Can anyone stop the freight train that is Venus right now? She's won back to back tournaments now on two completely different surfaces and has won 19 of her last 20 matches. Not even Serena seems to be able to stop her.
She thoroughly dominated Flavs in the Acapulco final, winning 1 and 2. No time to celebrate though. She's gotta hop a plane to NYC and be ready to play on Monday night.

With almost surgical precision, four cables were attached to a more than 9-ton galvanized steel dome that was hoisted 80 feet in the air and slowly placed on top of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's new College of Arts & Sciences building.
DAYTONA BEACH — With almost surgical precision, four cables were attached to a more than 9-ton galvanized steel dome that was hoisted 80 feet in the air and slowly placed on top of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University's new College of Arts & Sciences building.
"It's like a giant Erector set," Bob Buraszeski, general superintendent with Perry-McCall Construction, said Tuesday as he watched workers on top of the building secure the observation dome. "It's quite an adrenaline rush, that's for sure."
The retractable dome, which is 15 feet high and about 30 feet in diameter, was built by Ash Dome of Illinois to house the largest university-based telescope in Florida, school officials said.
The dome sits on top of a tower contained within the building, but the tower is independent of the building to avoid shaking from elevators, people walking, or the heating and air-conditioning systems. The dome, along with a much smaller one that will be used to track the sun, costs about $220,000, according to Chris Hardesty, Embry-Riddle's director of planning and construction.
"The dome opens to let the telescope look to the sky and then it closes to protect the telescope," Hardesty said.
The telescope will be placed inside the dome in early December when the 140,000-square-foot, five-story building — which costs about $40 million — is completed. Students and faculty will able to use the telescope starting in January. The dome is bolted to a wheel system that allows the dome and telescope to rotate electronically 360-degrees, Hardesty said. Images from the telescope will be fed electronically to monitors throughout the building.
Embry-Riddle President John Johnson, who watched from his office balcony along with other executives as a crowd of students and faculty gathered outside the building, described the dome as "futuristic" and a culmination of years of planning to expand the building and its academic programs.
"This puts into solid form our dream for this new College of Arts and Sciences building," Johnson said. "It's really a sight to behold."
The new dome and telescope is a "big step" in continuing to make Embry-Riddle the "go-to place" for applied research for the aerospace and aviation engineering industry, said Richard Heist, chief academic officer. While the university already has astronomy courses, it plans to offer a new bachelor's degree in astronomy in the fall of 2015.
The observation area on the roof, which will also be open at various times to the community and area schools, will include six smaller telescopes plus the large 1-meter diameter telescope totaling $2 million, Hardesty said. The new telescope is twice the diameter of the university's current telescope, according to Peter Erdman, a physics professor who has worked the past 10 years on getting the new observatory and telescope.
"What it will do is allow us to see dimmer objects because it collects more light," Erdman said.
With new detectors and the telescope, Erdman said the university and community will be able to see objects 10 times dimmer than what they can now see.
"We see the whole observatory as a symbol for the arts and sciences building," he added.
Student Chris Daroux, 28, of Cleveland, who is finishing his bachelor's in engineering physics, said the new telescope represents is not just about having the best or the biggest, but "bringing the wonder of space to the community."

Traitor, Bomber, Soldier, Spy
Stop crying "terrorism" every time we're attacked.
Two weeks ago, a Jordanian suicide bomber blew up seven CIA employees at a U.S. military base in Afghanistan. The CIA called it a "terrorist attack." So did the Associated Press in a report published in dozens of news outlets. Other journalists, analysts, commentators, and TV news anchors followed suit. In a Washington Post op-ed published yesterday, CIA Director Leon Panetta said of the fallen officers, "When you are fighting terrorists, there will be risks."
Terrorists? No, sir. The bombing of the CIA base, like the November massacre at Fort Hood, Texas, was an act of war. It was also espionage. But it wasn't terrorism. Terrorism targets civilians. The CIA officers killed at the Afghan base, like the soldiers shot down at Fort Hood, were not civilians. They were running a war.
According to the U.S. Code (Title 22, Chapter 38, Section 2656f), "the term 'terrorism' means premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets by subnational groups or clandestine agents." That's the definition we apply to other countries when we designate them as state sponsors of terrorism.
The Sept. 11 attacks, which used planes full of civilians to hit the World Trade Center, fit this definition. So did the attempt to blow up Northwest Flight 253 on Christmas Day. So did the Taliban's 2008 bombing of a hotel in Islamabad, Pakistan.
The Afghan base bombing doesn't fit the pattern. The CIA personnel who died in the attack were combatants. In interviews with multiple newspapers and wire services—for example, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here—U.S. intelligence officials have confirmed that the personnel at the Afghan base were closely engaged in selecting drone targets in Pakistan and orchestrating special-operations attacks on the Taliban-allied Haqqani network. In the Afghan theater, the CIA is becoming a paramilitary agency. It runs our drone war in Pakistan, and the Afghan base struck on Dec. 30 is "a targeting center for Predator strikes and other operations inside Pakistan."
That's why the bomber, Humam Khalil Abu Mulal al-Balawi, targeted the base. Read the accounts of his will and his farewell video. "This is a message to the enemies of the [Islamic nation], to the Jordanian intelligence and the CIA," he says in the video. "We will never forget the blood of our Emir Baitullah Mehsud." He vows to "retaliate" for the death of Mehsud, the Pakistani Taliban boss who was killed in August by a CIA drone strike. In his will, al-Balawi reportedly names other militants blown away by the agency's unmanned aerial vehicles. He wants to kill the drone masters.
And because the officers at the Afghan base were drone masters, they let him in. He was offering them hot intelligence on Ayman al-Zawahiri, al-Qaida's deputy leader. They hoped his information would lead them to al-Zawahiri. They were going to do to al-Zawahiri what they'd done to other al-Qaida commanders: wipe him from the face of the earth. If they'd been ordinary intelligence analysts, they never would have whisked al-Balawi into their base for an urgent meeting. They did it, and they died, because they were fighting a war.
Al-Balawi was a jihadist. He wrote nasty, crazy stuff about martyrdom and killing Americans. But those were just words. He was, as one terrorism expert put it, a "cyber-activist." Presumably, that's one reason the CIA took a chance on him: He had never actually tried to kill anybody.
Well, now he has. But his victims weren't civilians. Neither were the victims of Maj. Nidal Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter. Read the job titles of the Fort Hood casualties: major, sergeant, captain, specialist, specialist, sergeant, private, private, captain, private, lieutenant, private. Then check out the video of Hasan calmly buying coffee at a 7-Eleven before the shooting. He didn't target civilians. He targeted soldiers.
Within days of the Fort Hood massacre, everybody and his brother was calling Hasan a terrorist. As Slate's Juliet Lapidos noted, even Sen. Joe Lieberman and former U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey, who should know better, said it was terrorism. Lieberman cited evidence "that Dr. Hasan had become an Islamist extremist and, therefore, that this was a terrorist act."
Therefore? You mean, anybody who kills anybody in the name of Islamic extremism is a terrorist? If that's all we mean by terrorism, then our enemies are right: It's just a code word for people whose religion we don't like.
This isn't what we meant by terrorism when we went to war against it. But one of war's perils is forgetting your principles. You torture, you lie, you change the meaning of your commitments. You win the war by losing your bearings.
Al-Balawi's father understands what terrorism means. Two days ago, he said of his dead son, "Had he killed innocent civilians I would have denounced him." But his son hadn't done that. He had killed intelligence agents. And the fight in Afghanistan and Pakistan, the father argued, was "a war of intelligence agencies."
He's right about that. In the skies over Pakistan, our agents have the means to incinerate al-Balawi's masters. And I hope they succeed.
But imagine the reverse scenario: an armada of Afghan drones hunting American militia leaders in the United States. Would you retaliate by slaughtering Afghan civilians? Or would you identify the drone masters, infiltrate their intelligence network, and kill them? Does it matter which path you choose?
It certainly does. And if we can't tell the difference anymore—if we need lessons in the meaning of terrorism from the father of a suicide bomber—then it's time to remind ourselves what we're fighting for.

On the other side of campus, tonight is the conclusion of our Terrence Malick film series, and it's a special one: the extended director's cut of The New World. This version of the film has never before been screened in theaters, so you don't want to miss it. Also on hand will be Jacqueline West, the film's Oscar-nominated costume designer.
If you've been to our Korean art galleries in the last few months, you've seen conservators working in the galleries on the restoration of an eighteenth-century Korean Buddhist painting, Buddha Shakyamiuni Preaching to the Assembly on Vulture Peak. On Saturday morning we'll be holding a free one-day symposium on their work, including talks by conservation scientists from LACMA and scholars from Dongguk University and Yong-In University, both in Korea.
Saturday is also a great day to see our recently opened exhibition The Mourners. At 2 pm the Jamal Dance Art Theater will give a free performance inspired by the exhibition, "Mourners Are Dancing Too."
Saturday night in the Bing is the uplifting Gospel documentary Rejoice & Shout, tracing the musical genre's evolution from spirituals and hymns to contemporary R&B-infused songs.
Sunday sees the opening of a brand-new exhibition in the Pavilion for Japanese Art: The Sound of One Hand: Paintings and Calligraphy by Zen Master Hakuin. Hakuin Ekaku (1685–1768) is one of the most influential Zen masters of the last 500 years—he's the man who asked "What is the sound of one hand?" But in addition to his influential teachings, he was also an incredibly significant artist. The Sound of One Hand is the first exhibition in the West devoted to Hakuin's scrolls.
Bring your kids on Sunday for our weekly free activities during Andell Family Sundays, where you can build your own mini-furniture!
As the day wears on, head to the Art Catalogues bookstore to hear critic David Antin discuss his latest book, Radical Coherency: Selected Essays, 1966–2005.

Meet the Designer
Zoo Portraits is a brand name that was born in 2013 based on a creative project developed by Yago Partal, a photographer and producer living in Barcelona city. Influenced by the animal kingdom, cartoons and fashion since he was a child, he found his voice in a game we all like to play: the humanization of animals. The project initially started as a marketing campaign to publicize photo books for models, actors and actresses. He made several portraits by mixing the animal world with elements of fashion in a collage, half photographic and half illustrative, that soon came to life itself as a separate project and its later consolidation as the brand Zoo Portraits.

Against the backdrop of roaring lions and tigers, the Women's Board of Lincoln Park Zoo hosted its 35th annual Zoo Ball July 13th. The rain didn't dampen the spirits of more than 1,100 black-tie clad guests as they mixed and mingled in three adjoining tents on the zoo grounds. "This evening's theme, 'The Great Catsby' acknowledges the beauty of the world's big cats and invites guests to experience a grand time with friends who share a love of our wild animals," said Zoo President and CEO Kevin Bell.
During the reception, across from the Kovler Lion House, guests enjoyed a silent auction and had the opportunity to "Feed a Friend" at the zoo. Donations ranged from $100 to feed a gibbon family for three months to $15,000 for a year's worth of food for a gorilla family. Donors walked away with stuffed animals reflecting their choices and for those who didn't take the toys, they were donated to Lurie Children's Hospital, a partner of the zoo.
Co-chairs Cynthia Polayes and Suzanne Meder chose décor that reflected a Hampton's theme and included twinkling chandeliers hanging throughout the more than 30,000' feet of tenting while masses of blue hydrangeas served as centerpieces. Earlier in the day, due to heavy rains, one of the tents came down but all was well by the time the event began
Dinner and dancing followed with guests enjoying the sounds of Rendezvous. A highlight of the evening came when surprise performers, the Village People, were introduced. As guests jammed the dance floor, this popular 1970's disco group performed their hits culminating with a crowd favorite "YMCA." At the close of the event, chauffeured courtesy cars from BMW were available for attendees.
Guests included Abby Zanarini (Women's Board President), Anne Pramaggiore (Honorary Chair), actress Joan Cusack, Wendy Krimins, Tina Koegel, Susan Regenstein and Barry Frank, Beth Levin and Marcus Lemonis, Myra and John Reilly, Vicki and Bill Hood, Kathy Brock and Doug Regan, Rebecca and Charlie Besser, Janet and Rodger Owen, William Holdeman, Sherren Leigh, Ken Norgan, Paul Iacono, Leslie and Robert Zentner, Gale and Jay Gottlieb, Wendy Chronister and Peter Rogers and John Alexander.
Proceeds from the evening amounted to more than $1 million and will go towards the zoo's Nature Boardwalk, an urban ecosystem designed to provide a refuge for people, plants and animals, as well as provide funds to maintain one of the last free zoos in the nation.

Oct 19, 2009What can one say when the word "suicide" enters into the conversation? Anywhere or any time? I've known Ron for many years and was there among others to mourn the tragic death of a shining, beautiful young man. Somehow, without exception (from all reports I've heard then and since) everyone found themselves surrounded by love, rising to celebrate life over death. The journey for the Pappalardo family no doubt continues. May others, also hurting, sometimes broken by great pain and sorrow, also on the journey, find this book. Let every Joshua be found and let every parent, child and loved one, be fully reconciled . . . within the light. ~Edwin Pierson
Oct 6, 2009"Reconciled by the Light recounts the remarkable journey taken by the Pappalardo family after their teenage son Joshua commits suicide - from the predictable shock and grief, to a very unpredictable liberation and tremendous growth, and, yes, this includes Joshua himself. This book goes far beyond 'coping' with suicide and loss to a powerful reaffirmation of just who we truly are and why each of us is here." ~Rev. David Hose, author of Every Day God

Gupta Receives 2012 Informs ISS Design Science Award
Honored for "Design of Automated Agents Capable of Recognizing and Forecasting the Economic Environment"
Research by Professor Alok Gupta and colleagues from the University of Minnesota and Erasmus University received the 2012 Design Science Award from the INFORMS Information System Society (ISS). The annual award recognizes research efforts centered on the design and realization of innovative information technology (IT) artifacts.
Gupta earned the prize for "Design of Automated Agents Capable of Recognizing and Forecasting the Economic Environment." One of the key papers from this research project, "Real-Time Tactical and Strategic Sales Management for Intelligent Agents Guided by Economic Regimes," was recently published in the journal Information Systems Research.
In issuing the award the judges commented, "The authors have combined design science principles and economic theory to design and evaluate specific artifacts but also to develop 'design theory' for software agents. The evaluation is well-conceived and convincing."
Gupta, the Curtis L. Carlson Schoolwide Chair in Information Management, also won the 2011 Design Science Award for his work with Carlson School colleagues Professors Shawn Curley and Gedas Adomavicius.

The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) convenes community acceptance panels before embarking on new research and development initiatives to gather input from relevant communities. NIJ sought input on a proposed initiative to develop safer, more effective use-of-force options for law enforcement officers. Panel participants discussed chemical options, the risk factors associated with their use, potential delivery mechanisms, the empirical studies available from the relevant community, and legal and ethical issues associated with these agents. Much of the discussion was placed around the data illustrated in the Pennsylvania State University study, "The Advantages and Limitations of Calmatives for Use as a Non-Lethal Technique," published in 2001.
The community acceptance panel convened a broad representation of community members. It was populated with practitioners from the medical, research, legal and ethical communities.
Currently, the law enforcement community is using electro-muscular disruption (EMD) devices as the most viable and less lethal option to deal with hostile environments within the local criminal justice/law enforcement arena. The continued use of EMDs was not negated by the panel, but there are situations, such as hostage situations, where EMDs are not a good or available option.
There have been more than 200 incidents of death reported proximal to the use of EMDs, but in a large number of these incidents, the EMDs were not found to have been a factor in the deaths according to death investigators. Therefore, with more than 184,000 devices currently in use, EMDs have been adopted widely by law enforcement with positive outcomes in a wide variety of circumstances. The panel discussed that in cases where the suspect was on drugs and/or experiencing a state of excited delirium, EMD use may cause medical concerns. Research is currently being conducted on the causation of these deaths and how to potentially foresee them or counteract negative results. Also, additional research is underway on the use of impact munitions and other less lethal alternatives.
The group was tasked with assessing the potential of developing new riot control agents (RCAs), such as chemical calmatives, as a viable addition or alternative to the law enforcement less lethal arsenal. Such less lethal options would be delivered in situations and in a manner similar to pepper balls or OC (Oleoresin Capsicum), except the resulting effects would be designed to calm rather than irritate the target.
It was made clear that NIJ has not yet funded the development or testing of any technology in this area, other than to convene this panel meeting. NIJ does not endorse a particular technology. We as an organization want to provide the community with the best science/research so law enforcement can make sound decisions.
The presentations focused on the very real need for alternative less lethal options for law enforcement and for the ongoing safety and protection of law enforcement officers, suspects and the community at large. All agreed that there is very little research and development money available for domestic law enforcement. Law enforcement relies on the federal government for research studies. Unfortunately, these studies can sometimes take a long time and seeing the results or developing a tool can take even longer.
It was agreed by the group that a common or consistent nomenclature for discussion of these technologies, both in the meeting and in the community, is needed. A consensus glossary should be developed.
The panel mentioned a potential new tool for law enforcement called the Active Denial System or "pain ray." It is a ray made of millimeter waves that are launched for a few seconds from more than 500 meters away. This device may be useful in prison riot situations, however additional research is needed.
Mr. Heal, while advocating for the potential use of calmative agents if a viable option became available, suggested that chemical calmatives might be more effective and better suited for hostage situations than for crowd or riot control situations. The general consensus was that calmatives would not be indicated for mass demonstrations as the optimal delivery method is nondiscriminatory. But unlike riot situations, under certain circumstances, when a hostage situation becomes tactical, the protocol is to kill the hostage taker in the ongoing mission to protect the lives of the innocents. If a less lethal alternative became available that would spare the life of the hostage taker as well, law enforcement would certainly opt for it. Even if there were some potential side effects, in a hostage situation, medical personnel could be on site for any medical issues that arose. At the point that these situations become tactical, the hostage taker is presumed dead, hence, a less lethal alternative is preferable to loss of life.
The ideal chemical agent would put the hostage taker to sleep without harming the innocents nearby. After the situation was under law enforcement's control, and the suspect was in custody, the suspect could then be awakened in a safe environment.
Dr. Kenny gave a presentation regarding the 2001 study conducted by Penn State University that investigated the advantages and limitations of using pharmaceutical agents as calmatives. The study focused on carfentanil (used to sedate large animals via darts), which is delivered intramuscularly, intravenously and orally and has a known antidote. However, the agent is an opioid and has some undesirable side effects including respiratory depression that can be fatal. It was suggested that additional candidate agents may be identified by looking at the pharmaceutical industry for cast-off drugs or other research options that may have come into play since this research was undertaken seven years ago. There may also be new developments within the pharmaceutical industries of which the panel is not aware. All were interested in assessing the present state of research in this area.
Based on discussions regarding the Penn State study and information provided by Dr. Benjamin during the toxicology presentation, the group identified/reaffirmed the issues that needed to be fully researched: the appropriate chemical/sedative that would serve in this capacity (that no one was sure currently exists); the appropriate dosage (suspect may be on medication or drugs already); method(s) of delivery, such as ingestion, inhalation, absorption through the skin and injection (and whether delivery needs to be done by a medically trained officer); and how the calmative may effect others in the immediate area.
The entire panel supported research as the first step. The research would explore alternative options, as consensus was reached that options are needed. Any research performed is entered into with no preconceived outcome in mind. There may be no safe option available based on drugs currently available within the medical/pharmaceutical community, or a safe drug may be found, but there may be no viable delivery mechanism. For example, most of the panelists were aware of the Dubrovka Theater siege in October 2002 when Russian Special Forces used a calmative agent to subdue Islamist Chechens who were holding 850 hostages in a Moscow theater. More than 120 hostages and terrorists died from the drug's effects and collateral effects. This was not the intended outcome foreseen by law enforcement.
There was also discussion regarding the importance of not overstating the potential capabilities of these less lethal alternatives and that all research/outcomes must be openly discussed and disclosed. It was agreed by all that transparency of the process is essential.
Ideally, in order to use calmative agents as a less lethal technology option, the agent would have to:
Dr. Hyma spoke to the panel about a new technique currently being implemented in Florida. In Miami Dade County there were 277 fatal police shootings between 1979 and 2006. Miami Dade began implementing EMDs as a supplemental law enforcement tool in 2001, after which they saw a drastic drop-off in the number of fatal police shootings from 2001-2006. In response to public protest to the EMD implementation, a focus group was put together to address the use of Tasers in 2003.
It was found that if a person is on drugs and begins to show symptoms of excited delirium, that person's body temperature increases. For example, once a person who ingested cocaine has a body temperature that rises above 104°F, they usually cannot be resuscitated and eventually die from organ failure.
Alternatively, Versed was recommended for nasal inhalation, but law enforcement would have to be trained to recognize these incidences as a medical emergency so emergency medical services and law enforcement could respond to the scene together. EMDs would be implemented if necessary. Once the suspect was successfully subdued, the suspect would be restrained, and Versed would be nasally administered by medical personnel on site, iced saline would be administered via IV to control body temperature and the subject would be taken to the emergency room. There have already been several successes with this protocol.
Dr. Benjamin provided the panel with information regarding the potential medical pitfalls that may arise when using a calmative agent. For example, although an antidote may exist for a drug introduced into the body for calming purposes, there is always a risk that a suspect may die from collateral or ancillary reasons before an antidote can be administered (e.g., drug overdose, temperature spike, aspiration, trauma from falling). Neither Dr. Benjamin nor the panel was aware of any ideal calming agent currently available. Unfortunately, only 1 of 10 drugs in development moves on to clinical trials. Once there, it can cost $500 million and take 5-8 years after chemical synthesis with no guarantee of approval. It is clear that any option suitable for law enforcement use would have to be based on a pharmaceutical already in existence and FDA-approved. There was discussion whether a pharmaceutical already on the market in one form could be altered for use in another form. For example, could a drug that exists in pill form be used in an aerosol version? But again, this is an area that requires research as no answers are currently available.
Other related issues discussed by the panel and associated pros and cons:
In addition to public policy concerns, Marian Daggett educated the panel on the legal concerns that should be considered before a chemical option can be implemented, if one was identified as viable:
The consensus among the panel members was that once identified for law enforcement use, the "ideal" agent would be something that could be administered by law enforcement and not medical personnel. This may not be a viable option and medical personnel may need to be a required part of a "team" when these agents are going to be used.
It was reiterated that the goal of using these types of agents is to
improve the less than perfect outcomes that are presently occurring around the country with the law enforcement tools currently available. In some situations, containment may be the goal, and in other scenarios the goal may be to break up a crowd of individuals. Different scenarios must be considered if research is done. Also, combinations of agents (e.g., calmatives + security fog or other substances) should be investigated.
Any consideration of research should not be done in a vacuum. Since the goal in identifying an appropriate agent is to find something that will have a sedation/incapacitation effect, short of being lethal, it was suggested that the EPA data on acceptable levels of environmental toxins may be helpful in guiding appropriate levels of calmative agents for law enforcement use. Additionally, the surgeon general has considered these issues already and may have useful information. Could DOJ/NIJ be the bridge between the law enforcement community, the medical and research community, and the private pharmaceutical and tactical vendors?
The general consensus of the panel members was that this may or may not be a safe or viable option for law enforcement, but all saw this as a reasonable area in which to attempt new or update existing research. Research in this area would provide the general community with a better understanding of the options, short comings or issues in this area and determine whether the viability of an unrealized tool like this exists. No one was prepared to make a determination as to whether a tool could be developed to work in a safe way, only that research was certainly an acceptable next step.

One day a university student got up late and missed his morning maths lecture on statistics. He went to the lecture theater anyway because the professor would write the homework that the students need to submit on the board. When he got to the lecture theater, he found a few maths problems on the blackboard. He copied the problem and worked on it over the weekend. He found the problems more difficult than usual but worked very hard on it because he wanted a good grade and homework was counted towards that. He missed the deadline but managed to solve the problem a few days later. He slipped his solution under the door of the professor with a note apologizing for missing the deadline. When the professor read the solution, he was shocked because what he wrote on the blackboard wasn't homework but unsolved problems that had baffled mathematicians for decades and this student managed to solved them. You may think that this story is fictional and I've created it or it but it is a real story and the student's name is George Bernard Dantzig This story is often told to illustrate the power of positive thinking and how performance can be shaped by what people expect of you and what you expect of yourself.
Remember this viral video from 2006?
I tell you why I put it up. When I saw the video, what struck me wasn't the ferocity of the teacher who really "took it out" on the student - I had a few teachers like that. What struck was what the teacher said 2:17 minutes into the video:
"All the good PRC students have never disappointed me from day one. You're the first student I met who did this sort of thing to me..."
I take it that this is one angry teacher because she had high expectations of students from PRC. I wonder what happened to the Singaporeans in her class? Expectations shape outcome in the classroom[High Expectations in the Classroom].
The elitist PAP has carried their obsession of sorting, selecting and labeling to the extreme in the education system. The whole education system is now a big sieving machine[my posting on this] to figure out which student is better than the other...and this is done at a young age. The system starts dividing the people early - gifted, non-gifted and sends them out to secondary schools based on 10 bands so there is uniformly low academic expectations for those in the sorted to the lower end. Low expectations coupled with poor outcomes put those at the lower end of the system into a vicious cycle - very often these are students from poorer families or poor family background and the education system lock in and worsen the social inequalities. One regular commenter on my blog, who previously worked as teacher but became disillusioned with the system, explained that many poor students from non-English speaking homes are disadvantaged because even for maths, the questions are so convoluted for the purpose of sorting the students, they are more like English comprehension tests.
Because many Singaporeans are pushed into and became part of this education system, they are not aware other systems of education that work well- like the egalitarian system in Finland:
"The Fins adamantly oppose any form of divisions or ranking, and 'advanced'
or 'elite' divisions are major taboos. " - Secrets to
Finland's World Topping Education System
There are no "gifted" programs, and the more able children are expected to help those who are slower to catch on." - Wikipedia, Finland's Education System[Link]
Imagine that, instead of trying to beat each other by paying for the best tuition to get into various streams and secondary schools of different bands - students help each other do better....now that will be a game changer for Singapore society.
But in Singapore, the elitist PAP govt have to do this division, sorting and turn children into winners and losers in this high stakes education board game:
Here is a petition[Link] created by parents who have gathered at the Kiasu Parents Forum - these are hands on parents but many of them are frustrated the system as it is today...they are fedup:
"This petition aims to get MOE to review the following system features of our education system in order to bring the system back into equilibrium.
(1) Bell curve grading in the extreme
(2) Student pigeonholing into good/bad classes & good/bad schools
(3) Too large classes"
- Extract from Kiasu parents petition.
Mind you, these are "kiasu" parents and they find their children can't cope. What happens to children of hands off parents - steadily falling downwards in the checkerboard vicious cycle without a kiasu parent to rescue them. One of the major objections of these parents is the "pigeon-holing" of students these pigeon holes are also pigeon holes of expectations and these parents are terrified that their children are trapped in one with low expectations leading to poor outcomes.
The education system looks like a mirror image of the PAP elitist ideology to divide people into different classes based on their intellectual ability measured by exam scores then allocate resources and opportunity based on these divisions. For the talented people at the top $1M pay is not too much and those less talent at the bottom $1000 a month is not too little - can still own HDB flat so they claim. Their former mentor goes as far as to say these divisions are genetically linked and children from non-university graduates ..we should have lower expectations of them going to university:
"People get educated, the bright ones rise, they marry equally well-educated spouses. The result is their children are smarter than those who are gardeners" - Lee Kuan Yew
In the 1980s right up the early 90s, the Singapore workforce was number 1 in the world. Productivity growth was high and there was pride in being a Singaporean worker. Employers and foreign investors who came to setup businesses were impressed by the high quality of our workforce. There was a "can-do" spirit that permeated among workers who were ranked number one in the world. When the PAP started introducing foreign workers into the workforce, they justified it by saying Singaporean workers lack talent, do not want long hours, do not strive hard enough, do not want certain jobs etc pushing down employers' expectations of Singaporean workers in order to justify more foreigners in the workforce. Over time, the Singaporean workers' branding is destroyed along with it the high productivity growth of our workforce. Today, Singaporeans find it hard to stand out in a workforce dominated by foreigners from various developing countries. It is hard for Singaporeans to recreated the workforce branding that is destroyed as we have entered the vicious cycle of competing with cheaper foreign labor.
You think about it ...does it make sense to put our children through this intense competition in education only to have them lose out when it comes to university places and jobs to foreigners later on? The whole system puts Singaporeans on a treadmill to no where. The intense competition in the school system merely serve to push down our own children into pigeon holes of declining expectations to enter a workforce in which they have little edge over some one from Philippines, China or India. This whole system is not about making the Singaporeans better than everyone else but making the Singaporean as bad as everyone else. 2 decades of PAP policies have left Singaporeans with little to cheer about. We again find ourselves struggling in a system that puts so many hurdles against us - while hundreds(( if not thousands?) of Singaporeans have to go overseas for further education because they cannot get a place in our universities, the PAP govt educates the children of foreigners for free by giving out scholarships. What good is this system for Singaporeans if it does not elevate Singaporeans but instead depress them, deny them and disadvantage them?

I ask because I have had a problem with plenty of bittering but lack of flavor and aroma in my brews. I have been killing the heat, adding the flameout hops, and letting it stand for an hour or more.Also, I use a plate chiller.
Also... Look into a couple ounces of first wort hops for flavor.
I use a plate chiller so it would have to be recirculated into the kettle. Without a pump, that will be hard to do. I suppose I could let it drop to 170 and then add the hops.No massive hops at flameout, just as directed by the recipe.I suspect the lack of flavor/aroma is due to a prolonged hop stand.Is a 10 minute contact time enough to add aroma @ flameout?

Spain suspends riot control exports to Venezuela
MADRID (AP) — Spain has indefinitely suspended the export of riot control equipment to Venezuela's government following weeks of unrest there which have seen an increase in violence as police face sustained protests by the opposition.
Speaking in Athens on Saturday, Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Garcia Margallo said "it is a fact" that Spain has suspended sales because "it is logical not to add fuel to the fire when there is a conflict."
The decision was made by a government panel March 6, but only now confirmed publicly. Garcia Margallo said Spain has a special interest in Venezuela because 200,000 Spaniards live there.
He said the government was following developments in Venezuela carefully because 30 Spaniards have been arrested by forces loyal to the socialist administration of President Nicolas Maduro.

Column: Woods' quest for Nicklaus record is over
ATLANTA (AP) — Tiger Woods had a clean palette to work with in the Tour Championship.
Teeing off ahead of everyone else Friday, an empty course in front of him, he produced a work that symbolized what he's become on the golf course.
Part masterpiece. Part color-by-numbers.
When Woods walked blankly off the 18th green at East Lake — worn out and looking older than his rapidly approaching 38th birthday — it's never been clearer.
Jack Nicklaus' record is safe.
There's no way Woods is going to win four more majors, which would tie the Golden Bear's mark of 18 titles, much less the five he needs to have it all to himself.
One or two? Sure.
Four or five? Not a chance.
"Just ran out of gas," Woods said glumly. "I'm tired."
No doubt, he's still one of the world's best players. Heck, he's ranked No. 1 in the world and has won five times this year, more than twice as many victories as anyone else. But, quick, name any of them. Woods, you see, can still win on those courses where he's always been successful. Otherwise, we're watching a slow, unstoppable slide that was probably accelerated by his shenanigans off the course a few years ago.
Time didn't stand still for Nicklaus. Or Arnold Palmer. Or Ben Hogan.
It won't for Woods, either.
The guy who seemingly made every big putt in his prime can no longer rely on that facet of his game with impunity, the surest sign of a golfer in the throes of middle age. There's also a body that keeps breaking down, something that all aging athletes must face, but seems to be affecting Woods earlier than most — perhaps because he started so young. He's already had four surgeries.
Once, the mere sight of Woods' name on the leaderboard would cause his rivals to shakes in their spikes. Now, he's just another guy they think they can beat — tougher than most, perhaps, but no longer a snappily dressed version of "The Terminator."
Woods started the Tour Championship with a birdie-less round of 73, leaving him next-to-last in the elite 30-player field. He had the gallery roaring Friday when he strung together four birdies in a stretch of six holes, pushing him to 5-under for the round and 2-under for the tournament.
"It's never over with that guy," one fan shouted optimistically.
That Tiger is gone, probably forever.
An errant drive at the 14th struck a tree left of the fairway, and he passed on a chance to punch it back in the fairway — which likely would've ensured no worse than a bogey. Instead, he turned to his left, eyeing an opening in the trees, and tried to cut it in a greenside bunker. He wound up next to the port-a-potties and took a double-bogey 6.
He could've bounced back quickly — the par-5 15th is second-easiest hole on the course — but his second shot plopped in a bunker left of the green, a sloppy sand wedge left him 18 feet short of the cup, and two putts resulted in a par that felt more like a bogey.
An atrocious chip from just off the 16th green led to an actual bogey, but was a mere warm-up for the mess that followed on No. 17. With his legs feeling like rubber, Woods yanked his tee shot into the water lining the entire left side of the fairway. After taking a stroke penalty and a drop in one of the member tee boxes, he left his next shot about 88 yards short of the flag. A hideous wedge came up far short of the green, and he switched to the putter to get it up the hill. Instead, the ball stopped a few inches shy of the short grass. Incredibly, after taking four swings and five strokes, Woods had yet to reach the green. He wound up with a triple bogey.
Woods had one more hole to go, but he was all done. He shot 71 and was 14 shots behind leader Henrik Stenson.
"It's just been a long, long grind," Woods would say a few minutes later.
About the same time Woods' round was falling apart, Nicklaus was over in Charleston, S.C., for the opening of a pizza restaurant. He's an investor in the place with his son, Gary. As always, the Bear was asked about Woods' major drought, which dates to the 14th of his titles at the 2008 U.S. Open.
"If you look at it realistically, Tiger's probably got another 10 years of top golf," Nicklaus said. "That's 40 majors. Can he win five of them? I think he probably will."
That's been his standard reply. More relevant is the record book.
Hogan is the only player to win five majors after his 38th birthday — the number Woods needs for the record. Nicklaus and Old Tom Morris after the only others to win as many as four after the age that Woods will turn on Dec. 30. Also consider: Gene Sarazen is the only player to win as many as four more majors after a major-less streak as long as Woods'.
No matter what Nicklaus might say for public consumption, he can rest easy.
His record is safe.

BRISTOL, Tenn. – With its postseason fate hanging in the balance, the King University baseball team used a dominant offensive performance in the first game of a Saturday doubleheader and a complete-game effort from Cory Rhodes in the second to earn a three-game series sweep of Limestone College and clinch a bid to the Conference Carolinas Tournament.
With its three wins over Limestone, King (17-27-1, 8-10 Conference Carolinas) moves into a tie for fourth place with the Saints (20-23, 8-10 Conference Carolinas) in the league standings and holds the tiebreaker should the teams finish with the same record. King assured itself one of the six conference tournament bids as it is now four games clear of seventh-place Belmont Abbey with three games to play in King's conference slate.
The Tornado fell behind in the top of the first inning of the afternoon's opening contest, surrendering a run on a sacrifice bunt attempt. But the Tornado got to Limestone starter Jameson McGrane early, chasing him from the game after just 1/3 of an inning. A Tyler Raymond single scored Tyler Gaby from second base, then Stephen Mullins plated two more runs with a single up the middle. McGrane was lifted in favor of Kyle Cliff after the Mullins hit with Limestone trailing 3-1 just six batters into the King lineup. McGrane was ultimately charged with four runs as the Tornado sent 10 men to the plate and pounded out five hits in the inning.
The Tornado then scored another six runs in the second, this time with 11 batters ripping seven hits in the frame. The Tornado had runners on second and third with two outs after Tom Hooker scored the first run of the inning on a suicide squeeze by Garrett Cook. The Tornado then got consecutive two-out, run-scoring hits from Mullins, Justin Trent, Moises Soto, Cody Rogers, and Gaby that made the score 10-1.
Limestone got three runs back on a Avi Alzadeh home run to left field that came off of Alexander Gonzalez. The King starter went 7.0 innings to earn his fourth win of the season, allowing five runs, four of which were earned, on seven hits . He issued two free passes and struck out five. Ryan Nichols closed out the contest, allowing one hit in two innings of work.
A Raymond RBI single and a Hunter Smith three-run home run to left center provided the rest of the offense for the Tornado, who reached the 20-hit plateau for the first time since an 18-6 win over Young Harris College on May 4, 2012. Gaby, Raymond, Mullins, and Trent each totaled three hits in the win, which marked the 12th time this season King has scored at least 10 runs in a game.
In stark contrast to King's win in the first game, the afternoon's second contest was a pitcher's duel that saw neither team go to the bullpen. Limestone's Kaleb Earls threw 8.0 innings and gave up four runs, three earned, on seven hits and struck out five without a walk. But he was outperformed by King's Cory Rhodes, who threw a complete game and gave up three runs, one of which was unearned, on seven hits. He walked one batter and struck out six in his 141-pitch performance.
The Tornado appeared to be well on its way to a series sweep after a two-run second inning. Cook successfully executed his second suicide squeeze of the day to score Mullins with the bases loaded and J.D. Wallace came in to score moments later on a wild pitch. But Limestone's Alzadeh crushed another home run, this time a two-run shot down the left field line, to even the score in the fourth.
Cook singled through the left side on a full count to open up the fifth for King. He stole second with two outs in the inning and plated King's third run of the game on a Raymond RBI single into right center. The Tornado would pick up an important insurance run in the next frame as Mullins scored an unearned run on a fielding error by the Saints' shortstop.
Limestone pulled to within a run in the eighth on an RBI single from Alzadeh with two runners on. But Rhodes shut the Saints down in the ninth, striking out Chad Balderman on a 2-2 fastball to end the game with the tying run on second base.
King will return to action in Harrogate, Tenn. on Tuesday in a road game with Lincoln Memorial University on Tuesday. The two teams squared off in Bristol on February 19, playing to a 6-6 tie before the game was halted due to darkness. That game will be resumed at 4:00 p.m., with Lincoln Memorial coming to bat with no outs and none on base in the top of the 11th inning and King playing as the home team. They will then face off in Tuesday's regularly-scheduled contest after the resumed game is completed. King will then return home to face Tusculum College on Wednesday before closing out the regular season with a three-game conference series against Barton College on Friday and Saturday in Bristol.

On Monday, the United Nations passed a resolution to address the use of rape as a war tactic and establish the rights of victims of war-time rape to include comprehensive sexual and reproductive health. UN Secretary Ban Ki-moon addressed the Security Council before the debate, "Sexual violence, whenever and wherever it occurs, is a vile crime. It must be exposed and met with the anger and action that it deserves." funny picture quotes
Resolution 2106 [PDF] was approved unanimously by the 15 member UN Security Council. In the Resolution, the UN states that it
"Affirms that sexual violence, when used or commissioned as a method or tactic of war or as a part of a widespread or systematic attack against civilian populations, can significantly exacerbate and prolong situations of armed conflict and may impede the restoration of international peace and security; emphasizes in this regard that effective steps to prevent and respond to such acts significantly contribute to the maintenance of international peace and security; and stresses women's participation as essential to any prevention and protection response."
"Recognizing the importance of providing timely assistance to survivors of sexual violence, urges United Nations entities and donors to provide non-discriminatory and comprehensive health services, including sexual and reproductive health, psychosocial, legal, and livelihood support and other multi-sectoral services for survivors of sexual violence, taking into account the specific needs of persons with disabilities."

With THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING, director Peter Jackson has achieved a meticulous and captivating adaptation of the first book of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic fantasy trilogy. The setting is Middle-earth, a mythological land populated by elves, dwarves, humans, and the gentle, diminutive hobbits upon whom the story centers. One hobbit, Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood), unexpectedly comes into possession of an ancient magical ring so powerful it invariably corrupts anyone who wears it. In order to prevent the ring's erstwhile owner, the dark lord Sauron, from reclaiming the ring and taking over Middle-earth, a motley band of comrades set out to destroy it in the fires of Mount Doom, where it was forged. Included in the group are Frodo and hobbits Sam (Sean Astin), Merry (Dominic Monoghan), and Pippin (Billy Boyd); the wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen); human warriors Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen) and Boromir (Sean Bean); the dwarf Gimli (John Rhys-Davies); the elf Legolas (Orlando Bloom). Along the way, they wage battle with monsters, demons, and Sauron's evil minions, all brought to life by spectacular digital technology.
Jackson's grandiose production represents the first of three films that he wrote and directed, derived from Tolkien's beloved novels. Fourteen months in the making, at a cost of $270 million, all three installments were filmed at once in New Zealand where diverse landscapes lend themselves particularly well to the mystical realm of Middle-earth. The trilogy also includes THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE TWO TOWERS and THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) Despite objections from landowners and the city of Eudora, Douglas County commissioners have approved a sand pit mining operation.
The commission voted Wednesday to allow Penny's Concrete Inc. to move one of its current dredging operations onto the south bank of the Kansas River on land northwest of Eudora. State and federal authorities still need to approve the operation.
Earlier this week, the Eudora City Commission urged the county commission to reject the permit. Eudora officials are concerned the mine and the lake it will create could contaminate the city's water supply.
The Lawrence Journal World reports company officials insist the sand pit will not endanger public health and safety.
Commissioners Mike Gaughan and Jim Flory said they believed the conditions of the permit would minimize the risk.

The tablet is on the right isn't it? What use is that to me? I'd've mortgaged the cat otherwise.
'Cause Lenovo's are shit. I've seen 3 of the very few we ever had in my shop fail for some reason or another.
Too true. Us lefties always get a bum deal.
Also, if they can add one screen to the right, why not another to the left? And a third to the top? Quad screen notebook anyone? I've found the more screens you have, the more you use. You'd lose an arm these days if you tried to take away my third monitor!
Trim down the surrounds and you could even go to six and have a portable video wall! Or am I just getting carried away now? :-)
Well, you might have been getting a little carried away, but as I watched the vid I was waiting for him to pull one out of the other side as well.
I guess you could have had 2 x 8.5" or near enough, was my thinking.
Even so though, pretty cool! Looks very think though.
Did I miss something. This seems useless, such a tiny expansion really would not be much use. I was expecting another FULL screen to slide out from the side and with the thickness of the main screen bezel it's quite pointless really. But maybe that's just me!
