Iraq on edge after deadly raid on protest camp
BAGHDAD (AP) — Security forces stormed a Sunni protest camp in northern Iraq on Tuesday, sparking deadly clashes in several towns and sharply intensifying rage at the Shiite-led government. The unrest and a spate of other attacks, mostly targeting Sunni mosques, killed at least 56 people.
The violence could mark an ominous turning point in the four-month Sunni protest movement, which is posing a stubborn challenge to Iraq's stability a decade after the toppling of Saddam Hussein.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks on three Sunni mosques, and it was unclear if there was any connection to the storming of the protest camp. Sunni extremists such as al-Qaida have in the past targeted moderate Sunnis. But if Shiite militias were behind the attacks, it would raise fears of a return to the open sectarian fighting of 2006 and 2007 when Iraq was on the brink of civil war.
The raid on the protest camp drew harsh condemnations from Sunni leaders and foreign diplomats, and raised fears that Iraq is being pushed back toward all-out sectarian fighting like that fueling civil war in neighboring Syria.
Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki swiftly announced the formation of a special ministerial committee to investigate what happened, underscoring worries that anger over the incident could spill out of control.
"What happened today is a total disaster," parliament speaker Osama al-Nujaifi, a Sunni, said at a televised news conference. He appealed for calm and called for those responsible to stand trial.
"If this bloodshed spreads to other provinces, God forbid, there will be a huge fire that we cannot put out," he said.
The security crackdown began at dawn in the former insurgent stronghold of Hawija, about 240 kilometers (150 miles) north of Baghdad. Like many predominantly Sunni communities, the town has seen months of protests accusing the government of neglect and pursuing a sectarian agenda.
The raid occurred four days after a checkpoint jointly run by the police and army near the town came under attack. Militants seized a number of weapons before retreating into the crowd of protesters, according to the Defense Ministry. Authorities had been trying to negotiate with local and tribal officials to hand over those responsible.
Iraq's Defense Ministry said 23 people were killed Tuesday in Hawija, including three soldiers as well as militants who were using the protest grounds as a safe haven. It said members of al-Qaida and Saddam's outlawed Baath Party were among the militants' ranks.
In its account of the raid, the Defense Ministry said it warned demonstrators to leave the protest area Tuesday before moving in.
Amateur video posted on YouTube by protest supporters shows dozens of officers in riot gear and at least four anti-riot water cannon trucks facing off against a group of men. Many of the civilians were carrying swords, and security forces could be heard urging them to retreat as a helicopter hovered overhead.
It was not possible to verify the video's authenticity, but it appeared consistent with Associated Press reporting of the incident.
As Iraqi forces tried to make arrests, they came under heavy fire from several types of weapons and were targeted by snipers, according to the Defense Ministry account. Authorities reported detaining 75 people and seizing multiple machine guns, hand grenades, daggers and swords.
Outrage over the morning raid soon spread through other Sunni parts of the country.
Gunmen tried to storm army posts in the nearby towns of Rashad and Riyadh, leaving 13 of them dead, according to Defense Ministry, police and hospital officials.
Demonstrators also clashed with police in the restive western province of Anbar.
In Fallujah, mosque loudspeakers urged residents to protest in solidarity with Hawija. About 1,000 took to the streets, with some chanting "War, war." Clashes later erupted between gunmen and security forces in the center of the city, leading authorities to announce an overnight curfew.
A policeman near a protest site in Fallujah was killed by sniper fire, according to local officials. In nearby Ramadi, protesters threw stones at a military convoy and set army vehicles ablaze.
Police and health officials separately provided details of several other attacks, including the three at Sunni mosques.
In Baghdad's Dora neighborhood early Tuesday, two bombs went off near a mosque, killing seven worshippers and wounding 17.
Then in the evening, a bomb exploded as people were leaving a mosque in the town of Muqdadiya, about 90 kilometers (60 miles) north of Baghdad, killing eight worshippers and wounding 20 others. And gunmen opened fire on worshippers leaving a mosque in northeastern Baghdad, killing three worshippers and wounding nine.
Gunmen also shot and killed an electoral official in the Shiite neighborhood of Sadr City in the capital.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to release details.
But the day's main focus was the storming of the camp at Hawija. The town was the site of some of the fiercest fighting between U.S. and Iraqi forces, who faced frequent deadly attacks by al-Qaida in Iraq and other insurgents.
Salim al-Jubouri, a protest spokesman in the northern city of Mosul, suggested the Hawija killings marked a turning point.
"We have given up on peaceful struggle. Our next move is armed struggle and we have weapons to do this," he said, adding that some armed tribesmen were considering heading to Hawija.
Sheik Adbul-Malik al-Saadi, an influential Iraqi Sunni cleric who lives in Jordan, urged restraint but reminded followers that they have the right to self-defense. "Whoever is killed defending his honor or property or country is a martyr," he said in a statement.
The United Nations envoy to Iraq, Martin Kobler, strongly condemned the use of violence in an emotional plea for restraint.
"I'm saddened but I'm also angered that it was not possible to prevent this tragedy," he said at a news conference in Kirkuk, pointedly noting that most of the dead were "on the side of the demonstrators."
Without laying blame for the incident, the U.S. Embassy expressed regret that blood was shed before efforts to find a peaceful solution were given time to succeed. It urged all sides to avoid violence and provocative actions, and said it has been in touch with senior leaders to help defuse political and sectarian tensions.
Smoldering tensions along Iraq's Sunni-Shiite divide have been intensifying for months, pressured by Sunni protests that began in December and what officials fear is a strengthening of al-Qaida and other Sunni-backed militants.
Iraqi Sunnis say they face discrimination, particularly in the application of a tough anti-terrorism law that they believe unfairly targets their sect. The government frequently carries out arrests in Sunni areas on charges of al-Qaida or Baathist ties.
The Sunni protests in several cities have been largely peaceful, though there have been occasional incidents of violence. In January, at least five protesters were killed in clashes with security forces in Fallujah.
Tuesday's violence came three days after Iraqis in much of the country cast ballots for provincial officials. Voting was delayed in protest-wracked Anbar and Ninevah provinces because of government concerns about security.
The Cabinet announced Tuesday that voting is now scheduled in those provinces for July 4.

Despite No One Wanting It To, ITU Seeks To Butt In On Patent Issues Too
from the searching-for-relevance dept
And that's not all... Back in July, we wrote about the ITU's plan to host a patent summit to respond to the various patent thickets and disputes, with a main focus on the smart phone patent thicket. Now, having discussed problems with patents, and the smartphone patent thicket in particular, this might seem like a good thing, but when the summit was announced, we wondered if the ITU really understood the issue, and whether it would even have the right people participating. While the full details of the summit were apparently off the record, Nick Ashton-Hart's report on what he could say about the event suggests that, once again, it was entirely about the ITU inserting itself where it doesn't belong and where no one wants it to go. He notes that all of the ITU's public statements about the summit positioned itself as "riding to the rescue" of various patent disputes. But there were significant problems with this... in that no one wants the ITU's "help" here:
Basically, before the meeting even started, the ITU had decided what the problem was. But, since it's jumping into a space where it doesn't understand the issues, it's suggesting a "solution" that doesn't make sense, and which was clearly not supported by others at the summit. Nick explains further:
1 - First, the was an overwhelming lack of support for action at the ITU by the participants. I've been to many international meetings over more than two decades. You can tell, through the often exaggerated politeness in which positions are inevitably couched, when a group is willing to continue to discuss an issue and when it is not. It was completely obvious long before the end of the day that there was insufficient interest in the room to take forward the discussion – at the ITU, at least.
2 - Secondly, the ITU had clearly decided in advance what was going to happen, and expected the participants to rubber-stamp their conclusions. This was obvious when an ITU official read out a pre-prepared speech at the end of the meeting, including the following:
"I believe that providing market players with clear, transparent, effective and up-to-date patent policies works for the benefit of the industry as a whole…As the Secretary-General stated in the opening, ITU has a determination to take a leading role in the development of effective RAND based policies in the ICT sector…"
Followed by this bombshell:
"I will therefore request the TSB Director's Ad Hoc Group on Intellectual Property Rights, which will meet tomorrow, to begin work on a recommendation aimed at providing high level principles clarifying the meaning of reasonable, and the issue of injunctive relief, in the RAND context."
In other words, 'we're going to do what we want and we expect you to go along with it.'
I recall only one of the 100 participants asking the ITU itself to do anything as an outcome of the meeting – though a few did suggest that standards organisations in general – of which the ITU is one of many – could usefully look at various technical issues (such as transparency of ownership of SEPs).He goes on to point out that the focus on standards-essential patents is misguided, and was not a main concern of the attendees. In fact, he even notes one participant who got there thinking that SEPs were a problem, but left with his mind changed -- further evidence that the ITU had decided well before the meeting what the "result" would be -- and the fact that the summit didn't support its position was simply ignored.
Once again, it appears to just be a situation where the ITU has little knowledge, no experience and no mandate... but where it's trying to shove itself in, as it tries to remain relevant in a world that no longer needs it.

Hey guys,
I just got a set of LF Synergy boots and need a new board to fit the boots since my last board is the '05 LF Element.
How does the influence ride behind the cable? I know the DLX would be better for that but I want something without too much rocker and a little more flex for kiting.
How does it ride finless? Looks as though it'd be super slippery without channels. Should I just man up and get the dlx?
Any other ideas? Need something relatively cheap and in North America. Must ride at least OK at the cable. Also, would these boots fit all brands nowadays? It's 6 inch spacing.

I bought a 2001 BMW R1100SA Light a couple of months ago. Since I live in West Texas (Seminole), I have been able to do some riding this Winter. I have been riding a 1991 Harley FXRS for years. I still can't believed I traded it in for a BMW, but I immediately fell in love with this bike after only a 15 minute test ride. I am very ignorant to the BMW line of bikes. I have always been a Harley guy. This BMW bike is the piece of machinery I have ever ridden. The previous owner kept immaculate records of all maintenance. He placed Stainetune exhaust and carbon fiber intake with chip to match. I can very little info on this bike on the web or other forums. So I joined this forum to get some information.
I figure I should say something about myself here. I'm from Virginia originally, but been almost everywhere since I was in the Army. Retired in 2007 and stayed in West Texas due to work. Everything is nice, but the environment, I miss lakes, trees, grass and curvy roads. I did not like the way my BMW looks, but the ride and performance blew me away. I just had to have this bike.
Here are some questions:
What does the SA Light mean?
Does the Stainetune exhaust and carbon fiber intake with chip improve performance?
I hope to get to know some of you out there, especially others with the same bike as me.

Dr. Edythe Abdullah, Mr. Hugh Greene, Ms. Wanyonyi Kendrick, Ms. Joy Korman, Dr. Bruce Taylor, Ms. Rachael Tutwiler, Mr. Kevin Twomey (via conference)
Since Chair Twomey was participating via conference phone, he asked Vice Chair Kendrick to chair the meeting. With a quorum of committee members present, Vice Chair Kendrick called the meeting to order.
ViceChair Kendrick asked for a MOTION to accept the minutes for the December 13, 2007 meeting. The MOTION was offered, seconded and accepted.
There were no comments from the public.
ViceChair Kendrick asked Dr. Joann Campbell, Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs, to speak about this item.
Dr. Campbell reported that the initial agreement had been ratified over a year ago and since that time, efforts had been directed toward refining and clarifying the language. She spoke about the details of the supplement and noted one example regarding Article 11 and the ambiguity of unannounced visits to the classroom. She stated that the language had been further clarified.
Dr. Campbell asked that the record reflect that there was a typo in Article 11, line 2, whereby the word announced should be changed to unannounced. The administration agreed to make appropriate changes.
Without further discussion, Vice Chair Kendrick asked for a MOTION to approve the University of North Florida Board of Trustees – United Faculty of Florida 2007 Supplement to the 2004-2007 Collective Bargaining Agreement, with the record reflecting the typo in Article 11, line 2. The MOTION was duly made, seconded and approved unanimously.
ViceChair Kendrick asked Vice President and General Counsel Stone to speak about this item.
Vice President Stone yielded to Mr. Richard Buck, Associate General Counsel, and asked him to present this item. Mr. Buck provided a brief background for the policy, stating that this action came as a result of recent scrutiny of the financial aid industry. He explained that UNF had received inquiries about financial aid practices and had been proactive in reviewing current policy. Mr. Buck noted that, as a result of the review, the institution found that it was comfortable with current practice.
Mr. Buck said that the Attorney General's office had also responded to the industry's scrutiny and drafted a policy to be accepted by all State universities. He explained that the administration had received a copy of the proposed policy and compared it with UNF's current practice. He stated that changes were made to address noncompliance and the final result was the proposed code of conduct included in the meeting materials.
Mr. Buck reported that the Board of Governors requested for all State boards of trustees to approve the proposed code of conduct to signify that the universities understood the issues. He then presented the four elements, including: no personal benefits from lenders, no remuneration for lender advisory boards, no advantage to a lender, and preferred lender lists.
Trustees offered appreciation to the administration for being proactive in addressing the policy. Vice Chair Kendrick then asked for a MOTION to approve the Student Loan Practices Code of Conduct. A MOTION was offered, seconded and accepted.
Vice Chair Kendrick recognized Mr. Everett Malcolm, Associate Vice President for Student Affairs, and asked him to present this item.
Mr. Malcolm reported that the CDRC fee increase was reviewed by a board of directors which included students, faculty, staff and community members. He explained that that board of directors made a recommendation for fall 2008 which was subsequently presented for review and comment to Student Government leadership, the Auxiliary Oversight Committee and the President. The administration was now seeking a recommendation for approval from the Finance and Audit Committee to the Board of Trustees.
Mr. Malcolm stated that for the fiscal year 2007-2008, the CDRC had not requested a fee increase for any category. But for the fiscal year 2008-2009, a modest increase was being requested to keep pace with the rising costs of materials, supplies, food, utilities and teaching assistants' salaries.
Mr. Malcolm clarified the increase in teaching assistants' salaries by stating that the CDRC was renewing the National Association of the Education of Young Children accreditation which included a requirement to have full time assistant teachers. He noted that in an attempt to slow the turnover in teaching assistants the CDRC would like to add benefits to those positions.
Mr. Malcolm previewed the proposed fee increases and noted that the meeting materials included a summary of fee changes. Trustees asked for clarification on usage of the Center. The administration responded that the order of priority students, faculty and staff, and the community. He noted that the Center always maintained greater than 50 percent student usage and the community received slots that were not filled by students or faculty and staff.
Vice Chair Kendrick asked for a MOTION to approve the Child Development Research and Center Fee Increase for 2008-2009. Without further discussion, the MOTION was duly made, seconded and approved unanimously.
Chair Twomey asked Vice President Shuman to present this item.
Vice President Shuman clarified that the CITF was subsidized by a fee paid by all students enrolled in SUS institutions. She noted that the State usually released funds from the CITF every three years but felt there were enough funds to be released one year earlier.
Vice President Shuman explained that, in preparation for the release of these funds, the Board was required to approve UNF's plans for expenditure. She noted that the University had submitted its proposed list of Capital Improvement Fee Projects to the BOG Planning and Budgeting Committee, under signature of Chair Taylor, because the deadline for doing so was February 29th. She stated that the letter submitting the list noted that the Board of Trustees would be confirming these plans at their upcoming meeting.
Vice President Shuman stated that UNF's allocation from the CITF would be about $7 million. She provided a summary of the projects and noted that the University had worked in conjunction with students to determine this list.
Trustees asked for clarification on the CITF and its correlation to the University's budget. Vice President Shuman clarified that the CITF was in addition to the budget. She noted that UNF's allocation from the CITF was not sufficient to cover all projects on the list and, through the next three years, alternate means would be considered. She stated that the Board would have another chance to preview the list.
Vice Chair Kendrick asked for a MOTION to approve expenditures for the Capital Improvement Trust Fund. Without further discussion, the MOTION was duly made, seconded and approved unanimously.
Vice Chair Kendrick asked Vice President Shuman to speak about this item.
Vice President Shuman stated that, the operational audit for this year was good. She said the University had seven findings and noted that this was compared to 16 for 2007 and 15 for 2006.
Vice President Shuman stated that this year's state-wide focus had been on disaster recovery and security. She reviewed the findings and noted that the meeting materials included the University's draft response to the audit.
Vice President Shuman provided an update on the financial audit, Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program Audit and the Federal Awards Audit, noting that these audits were all with no significant deficiencies.
This item was presented as information only. No further action was required.
Vice Chair Kendrick asked Mr. Robert Berry, Interim Director for Internal Auditing to speak about this item.
Mr. Berry clarified that the purpose of this report was to provide information to the Committee on risks within the University's management audits and investigations. He presented details regarding the status of outstanding audit issues and updated trustees on completed audits. Mr. Berry spoke about upcoming items for the Committee, including updated charters for the OIA and FAC and a risk assessment for audits for the upcoming year.
This item was for information only. No further action was required.
Vice Chair Kendrick asked Vice President Shuman to present this item.
Vice President Shuman spoke about the auxiliary status report and the E&G budget and indicated that campus building projects were moving quickly, therefore cash balances would be reduced within the year. She reported that the only one auxiliary account was not where it should be but noted that efforts were being made toward resolution.
Vice President Shuman reported on the E&G budget, speaking about endeavors to address additional budget shortfalls. She noted that, at this point, the University did not anticipate any budgetary issues at the end of the fiscal year – even with the budget reductions.
This report was provided for information only. No further action was required.
Vice President Shuman stated that this report was current as of January 31, 2008. She provided details about the report and noted that investments exceeded the net cash balance.
Vice President Shuman updated the Committee on the University's transition out of the State Board of Administration (SBA) and spoke about the University engaging Sawgrass as an active money manager. She added that cash had been pulled out of the Wacovia account and invested with Evergreen. Vice President Shuman noted that the Sawgrass account has posted an 8 percent return. She also noted that the University anticipated the release of additional dollars from the SBA in March.
Vice President Shuman then spoke about the SPIA account, stating that the University had pulled out of that account with a 6.07 percent rate-of-return, annualized between July and January. She noted that if SPIA continued to perform well, the University might consider reinvesting at a later date.
Vice President Shuman spoke about bonding, stating that housing and Student Union bonds were fixed and parking bonds remained variable. She discussed bonding insurance and provided details about FDIC, clarifying that this had been paid as a one-time upfront fee at closing.
This information was provided for discussion only. There was no further action required.
President Delaney reported on the State's budget predictions and spoke about the University's plans to adjust its budget. Provost Workman spoke about the budget and noted that UNF would address reductions strategically in an effort not to render programs mediocre.
The administration discussed prospective State budget shortfalls and spoke about possible solutions. This discussion included additional faculty and the Quality Enhancement Plan, with both being deemed a priority to Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) reaccreditation. Other issues discussed were reducing funds set aside for new flagship programs which would add funds back to the Academic Affairs budget and executive reserves.
A discussion ensued regarding faculty pay raises. The administration also discussed the dissolution of marginal programs, reduced first-time enrollment and stricter limitations on transfer students.
Vice Chair Kendrick adjourned the meeting.

Recording Industry Has 'Virtually Eliminated Illegal File-Sharing' In Norway -- By Offering Better Products
from the they-said dept
A countrywide survey in December 2014 showed that just 4% of Norwegians under 30 years still used illegal file-sharing platforms to get hold of music.The head of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) in Norway, Marte Thorsby, explains why she thinks that has happened:
Even better for the worldwide industry, less than 1% of people under 30 years said that file-sharing was their main source of obtaining music.
"We are now offering services that are both better and more user-friendly than illegal platforms… In [the past] five years, we have virtually eliminated illegal file-sharing in the music industry."There we have it from the recording industry itself: offer "better and more user-friendly" products and illegal file-sharing just goes away on its own -- no intrusive surveillance, punitive three-strikes or clumsy site blocking required. How much clearer does it have to be?

If you go to Apple's HTML5 Showcase page and click on any of the demonstrations using, say, Google's Chrome, you'll be confronted with a pop-up stating you need Safari to see the demo at work. However, if you compare Safari's and Chrome's support for HTML5, you'll see that Chrome has far better support.
According to Opera's Haavard it's because this supposed HTML5 Showcase doesn't use much HTML5 at all, while at the same time, Apple employs several tricks to block out non-Safari browsers for no apparent reason. So, browsers that could run the demonstrations without problems are artificially blocked.
"Apple claim to promote HTML5 and an open Web, but the page uses browser sniffing to block other browsers, vendor prefixes for the CSS3 stuff they are using (even if other browsers support border-radius it won't work because it's coded using -webkit-border-radius), and the patent-encumbered H.264 for video," Haavard writes, "In fact, it seems that the only things that are HTML5 on that page are HTML5 audio and video."
It seems like Apple is using the same sneaky marketing tactics as Microsoft does with its HTML5 demos page - which doesn't really use any HTML5 either. This similarity is hardly surprising considering both companies are pushing a non-Free patent-encumbered codec for HTML5 video.
Apple is clearly trying to make it seem as if only Safari can display HTML5 content, even though this is utter nonsense, obviously. While we educated nerds can see through the smoke, many less computer fancy folk may not.
After the H264 shenanigans, yet more proof that Microsoft and Apple really don't care about a truly open web at all - they care about nothing but themselves, and will go to great lenghts to pull the wool over people's eyes. While there's nothing wrong with that (this is business), it is our job to keep fighting for a truly open web - no matter the browser, no matter the operating system, no matter your cash flow.

First Time Players Absorb Atmosphereby Jocelyn Hopkinson '15 • November 10, 2012 Share:
The 2013 senior class capped off its perfect Monon Bell game record Saturday, 4-0, when Wabash defeated DePauw, 23-0. Inexperienced Little Giants were just as important in the win.
Junior transfer-student Jon Laird and freshmen Tyler McCullen, Justin Woods, and Tre Taylor played key roles.
"This game is definitely eye opening," Taylor said. "I started getting excited for this game when the bleachers started going up."
Close to 9,000 fans—roughly three-quarters of which were Wabash—witnessed the young men in their first Bell game. Woods, a starting safety and kick returner, played at a largely-populated high school so the large crowd didn't make him too nervous. His biggest fear was that the Wabash crowd wouldn't be big enough.
"Guys told me the game sells out every year but I kept seeing all the e-mails selling tickets," he said. "I was worried there wouldn't be many Wabash fans here but there was and they were great all game."
Fans at Hollett Little Giant Stadium were not the only ones to witness the game. AXS TV (formerly HD Net) broadcasted the game nationwide with Matt Hudson '10 reporting from the sideline. Television gave Wabash players another change from routine.
"The TV timeouts made it feel like we were standing there for five minutes waiting on the referee to allow us to play," Taylor said. "We had some extra rest but it was frustrating to have the play ready and not be able to go out and run it."
The TV timeouts were not the only obstacle first-time players had to overcome. The build-up during Bell week showed players how important the game is. Laird and McCullen were uncertain what to expect during Saturday's big game.
"When I looked out my window [in college hall] this morning and saw all those people out there, it really hit me," Laird said. "The butterflies were there all the way up to the first play. After that, it was just another game and I calmed down a little bit."
McCullen, an Arizona native, was also taken by the game atmosphere. "It's obviously a bigger game so there are more nerves. It took about a quarter to settle down but after that I was good to go."
The freshman settled into a 3-tackle effort on the day; 1.5 tackles went for a loss. All four of the first-time Bell game players stepped up. Woods led the team with 7 tackles while the receiver Laird chipped in with 2 long catches for a total of 67 yards. Taylor rotated at center and helped Wabash pound out 275 rushing yards.
"Seniors made us play hard to day," Taylor said. "We had a great week of practice because of that group. We just wanted to go out there and get the win for them."
"This game set the tone for next season and it's a great way to send the seniors out," McCullen added.

Brockes-Passion. "Der fur die Sunde der Welt gemarterte und sterbende Jesu" (after the copy from J. S. Bach). By George Frideric Handel (1685-1759). Edited by Andreas Traub. For STB vocal soli, solo vocal quintet, SATB choir, 2 oboes, taille (english horn), 2 violins, viola, basso continuo. Stuttgart Urtext Edition. Score available separately - see item CA.5504800. Oratorios, Passions, Lent and Passiontide, Holy Week. Complete orchestral parts. Language: German. HWV 48. Duration 150 minutes. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.5504819). With Language: German. Oratorios, Passions, Lent and Passiontide, Holy Week. The extraordinarily high reputation among Handel's contemporaries of his Passion Oratorio to words by Brockes is indicated by the fact that no less eminent a musician than Johann Sebastian Bach himself made a copy of this work. Although Bach copied it without making substantial changes in it, our edition of the work brings together two of the greatest baroque composers. The Brockes Passion was-not only for the Leipzig Thomaskantor-an alternative to the betterknown Bach Passions.

Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet. (for pre-recorded tape and instruments). By Gavin Bryars (1943-). For digital tape / CD and ensemble / orchestra. This edition: ED 12480. Contemporary Music. Performance material. Composed 1971. Duration 35 minutes. Published by Schott Music (SD.49014910). ISBN 9790220130472. Jesus' Blut hat mich noch nie im Stich gelassen, dies eine weiss ich gewiss, weil er mich so liebt." Dieses Lied eines Londoner Stadtstreichers wurde 1993 mit Tom Waits ein Hit in den englischen Charts. Gavin Bryars war vom kurzen melancholischen Gesang, den er 1971 einem Dokumentarfilm uber Obdachlose entnommen hatte, so sehr fasziniert, dass er das Lied 180-mal wiederholte und mit einer ruhigen, harmonisch klingenden Orchestermusik unterlegte. Bryars' Kompositionen vermitteln dem Horer das Gefuhl einer Bildbetrachtung. Es wird namlich nur ein bestimmter Zustand beleuchtet, hier die religiosen Gefuhle des Stadtstreichers. Daher ist diese Musik zur Untermalung im Film oder Ballett pradestiniert.

The job isn't complete for the Mets now; in fact, it only begins, only becomes more complicated. But say this: the Mets punched back late last night, for the first time in a long, long time. They stood up. It's a good start.
They re-sign David Wright, according to WFAN, sign him to a seven-year deal (north of Johan Santana's $137.5 million contract) and the richest deal in club history, and that is a good thing. Wright almost certainly will be a lifetime Met, and by doing that he sets aside years of punch lines and offers this piece of hope for the future:
If it's good enough for Wright, maybe it's good enough for me.
This is a move that signals that if the Mets' financial issues aren't solved, they are at least no longer so ruinous as to keep the Mets completely out of the conversation when dollars and sense are discussed. Wright already has many of the important records in team history; by the time his career is over he will have all of them.
For a team that has had exactly one lifetime player of any substance — Ed Kranepool — this is a significant step. For a team whose own fans have doubted its very credibility, and viability, is sends an important message. The Mets may not be ready for a parade anytime soon but they no longer work under complete austerity, either.
Now comes the hard part.
Because while most Mets fans will delight waking up to this news, will be happy to know the time they have invested in No. 5 was not spent in vain, that will fade soon. And the last thing the Mets can be now is halfway with this. Wright has to be the first step of a larger plan, he can't be the whole plan.
Eight years ago, in a different financial time and a different era the Mets signed Pedro Martinez as a symbol as much as a player: the message was if its good enough for Pedro it was good enough for others. Carlos Beltran followed soon thereafter, and within two years the Mets were one game from the Woeld Series. Pedro provides credibility. And Omar Minaya built something around him. The blueprint is there.
Maybe there isn't a Beltran on the horizon; but there has to be something else. Signing Wright was the right thing to do. But it can't be the only thing they do.

Directed by Ben Affleck
If the movies have taught me one thing about this world, it's that Ben Affleck always comes out on top. That dude is just too smart, driven, and capable of growing a perfectly textured beard to ever really fail. Hot off the success of The Town, Affleck is back with Argo, a true story about a 1979 CIA mission in which agents pretended they were a film crew in order to free hostages from the American embassy in Tehran. Funny, self-reflexive, and tinged with prestige, Argo could be the film that cements Affleck's status as a significant director. Bonus: Walter White.

Two lorries had their trailers slashed open by would-be thieves who checked whether there were valuables stored inside.
A spokesman for Derbyshire police said the HGVs were parked in a compound at P Bromley and Sons, in Wimsey Way, Somercotes, when the trailer curtains were slashed open.
Nothing was stolen during the incident, which took place between 5pm on Wednesday and 8am the following morning.
A police spokesman said: "Officers want to trace any witnesses who may have seen people acting suspiciously in the area between those times."
Anyone with information should call police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

obama cairo speech
Reset: Stephen Kinzer's Vision of a New U.S. Relationship with Turkey and Iran
Until quite recently, it seemed that Turkey had a clearly defined role in the Middle East, from the standpoint of U.S. policy. They were the "good Muslims," who were part of NATO, who contributed troops to U.S. wars, and who had good relations with Israel.
In the past few weeks, therefore, some Americans may have been startled to see the government of Turkey seemingly playing a very different role. First, together with Brazil, Turkey negotiated a nuclear fuel swap agreement with Iran to defuse the standoff over Iran's nuclear program and forestall a controversial U.S./Israeli push for new sanctions against Iran at the U.N. Although the deal was very similar to one proposed by the Obama Administration - and Brazil and Turkey had a letter from Obama encouraging them to press forward with the deal - Obama Administration officials dismissed the deal, and far from being grateful to Turkey and Brazil, made a show of being angry. But instead of being chastened, Turkey and Brazil insisted their deal was good - invoking their letter from Obama to demonstrate their case - and insisted that the U.S. should pursue it.

Do you realize the two highest paid Mets outfielders are players no longer with the team?
That's right; Jason Bay and Bobby Bonilla will make more this year than the Mets' current outfield of Lucas Duda, Kirk Nieuwenhuis, Mike Baxter, Collin Cowgill and Marlon Byrd.
The Mets made both decisions to get out of bad situations and maintain cost certainty, but in this case it came back to bite them. The first thing a financial advisor tells you is previous success is not a guarantee of future success. The Mets didn't consider that advice.
Add the $3 million buyout to what the Mets owed Bay (including interest) and it comes to $21 million, paid out in a lump sum and deferred payments over the next several years. The deal also made Bay a free agent and he signed with Seattle. That gave Bay the chance to collect from two teams. Nice deal for him.
The Mets liked the arrangement because the Bay signing was a bust and this freed money for GM Sandy Alderson.
As for Bonilla, the Mets wanted to release him prior to the 2000 season, but didn't want to eat the $5.9 million on his contract. Instead, the Mets agreed to a 25-year, $29.8 million deferred plan that pays Bonilla nearly $1.2 million annually.

Motown's Frank Wilson wrote and produced hit records for such big names as the Supremes and the Temptations, but he was best known for a single recorded in Los Angeles that featured his own voice — and was never released.
Copies of his "Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)" had already been pressed in 1965 when Motown founder Berry Gordy asked him to choose between being a performer or writer-producer, Wilson's family said. When he decided on the latter, almost all of the singles were destroyed.
After the record mysteriously jumped across the Atlantic in the 1970s, it became an underground sensation in Britain and a prized collectible: A rare copy of "Do I Love You" sold in 2009 for $39,294, making it the most expensive music single sold at auction, according to Guinness World Records.
Wilson, who left Motown in the late 1970s to become a minister, died Thursday at City of Hope in Duarte. The Pasadena resident was 71.
The cause was complications from a lung infection, said a daughter, Tracey Stein. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer several years ago.
He joined Motown in 1964 soon after the Detroit-based record label opened a West Coast office in Los Angeles and helped produce a hit that year for Stevie Wonder, "Castles in the Sand."
The long list of popular songs that Wilson either wrote or co-wrote includes the 1968 hits "Love Child" for Diana Ross and the Supremes, "Chained" for Marvin Gaye and "All I Need" for the Temptations. After Eddie Kendricks left the Temptations, Wilson produced "Keep On Truckin' (Part 1)," which reached No. 1 on the Billboard pop charts in 1973.
Wilson also helped write "You've Made Me So Very Happy," a 1967 Top 40 single for Motown's Brenda Holloway that soon became an even bigger hit for Blood, Sweat and Tears.
Assigned to produce the Supremes' first album without Diana Ross, Wilson co-wrote "Up the Ladder to the Roof," which was a No. 10 single in 1969 for the newly configured group. Such Wilson-produced hits as "Everybody's Got the Right to Love" and "Stoned Love" followed in 1970 for the Supremes.
When the Los Angeles outpost of Motown was shut down after a couple of years, Gordy brought Wilson to Detroit in 1966. A decade later, the Baptist-raised Wilson recognized a "huge spiritual void" in his life and decided to largely leave the recording business behind.
"I just had a one-track mind and that was making the next number one record," Wilson told the Cleveland Plain Dealer in 1995. "It took God to make me realize there was more to life than music."
He served as a personal pastor to Motown entertainers, attended Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena and devoted the rest of his life to social and evangelical projects. They included a role as minister of a Christian fellowship for entertainers and the 2004 founding of another fellowship, New Dawn Christian Village, in downtown Los Angeles.
Frank Edward Wilson was born Dec. 5, 1940, in Houston, the third of six children of James Wilson and the former Samantha Gibbs. His maternal grandfather was a minister, as were several uncles.
His mother was a domestic who taught young Frank to play the piano by ear, and he began performing with his singing uncles, the Gibbs Five.
After studying at Southern University of Baton Rouge for about 18 months, Wilson left to pursue a music career in Los Angeles.
He was singing with a gospel group, the Angelaires, when he was inspired by Holloway's voice to start writing secular music, Wilson said in the 2001 book "Motown: The Golden Years."
Wilson never knew how his danceable Motown single "Do I Love You" ended up storming England's Northern soul scene. According to one imprecise account, the disc had been "borrowed" from Motown vaults in Los Angeles, "never put back, and found its way to England," John Manship, who organized the 2009 sale of the single, said in a BBC interview.
For his part, Wilson told the British press in 2001: "I was unaware that this record still existed. A Motown boss ordered all the masters to be destroyed. Somehow, a copy surfaced in Britain. I consider it one of my life's great achievements."
His first wife, singer Barbara Jean Dedmon, died at 23 when their only child, Tracey, was 2. He later had a son from a relationship. With his wife of 42 years, P. Bunny Wilson, he had four children. In addition to his wife and children, Wilson is survived by six grandchildren; a sister; and three brothers.
Services are at 10:30 a.m. Friday at Faithful Central Bible Church's Tabernacle, 321 N. Eucalyptus Ave., Inglewood.

Both Luke Donald and Justin Rose tumbled out of the Accenture Match-Play Championship at Dove Mountain today. Luke crashed out & and 6 to Scott Piercy and Justin Rose fell to Nicolas Colsaerts 4 and 2.
Ian Poulter beat Bo Van Pelt 3 and 1 while Matt Kuchar dispatched Sergio Garcia 2 and 1. Louis Oosthuizen, an inform favorite for this competition fell to Robert Garrigus 3 and 2.
Shane Lowery continues his good form, beating Carl Pettersson 6 and 5, while another Irishman Graeme McDowell beat off the challenge of Alex Noren 1 up through twenty holes.
Bubba Watson continues his good form, beating Jim Furyk 1 up through twenty-two holes, a tense and tough struggle. Chucky Three Sticks could not continue where he left off when beating Tiger Woods,he fell to Gonzalo Fedez- Castano 6 and 5.
Martin Kaymer is still in good shape as he defeated Raphael Cabrera-Bello.
This turning into a very interesting tournament, with so many top players falling over in the early rounds, there are no bookies favorites now, it is anybody's tournament.
This how the match-ups are for tomorrow;
No player has made more birdies this week than Garrigus, who has 14 in his first two rounds at Dove Mountain. Garrigus has won 12 holes and lost just five. Although the 35-year-old Garrigus hasn't played in a match play format in 18 years, he likes the challenge. "It's a fun, fun format for me, especially if I'm rolling it well, and I am." Jacobson's opponents have made just two birdies against him.
Colsaerts will have the distance advantage off the tee; he and Bubba Watson are the only two players averaging more than 300 yards in driving distance this week. "If I'm on, I'm going to give myself a lot of birdie tries," Colsaerts said. But he and Kuchar each have made an equal number of birdies this week (eight) and Kuchar doesn't get phased by being outdriven.
For the second time this week, G-Mac faces a foe from Ireland, having already beaten Padraig Harrington. And for the second time this week, Lowry faces a foe from Northern Ireland, having upset Rory McIlroy. The two were expected to have dinner together Friday night. "A good craic and be a bit of banter," Lowry said. McDowell has the experience edge, but he doesn't think it'll be a factor against Lowry. "If Rory didn't intimidate him, I suppose what chance do I have?" McDowell said. The two practiced together earlier this week, with McDowell winning the stakes. "Hopefully I can continue that role tomorrow," he said.
Watson is the only player ranked in the top 10 in the world who remains in the field. He's also played more holes than anybody else this week (39). Of those 39 holes, he's only trailed after one hole. Both players are long off the tee, so Day doesn't expect to give up much ground in distance. "I'm driving the ball really, really nicely," he said.
Piercy is coming off a surprisingly easy 7-and-6 win over top-seeded and world No. 2 Luke Donald. The Accenture Match Play Championship rookie now faces another former champion in Steve Sticker, who was taken to 21 holes by Nick Watney in the second round. Stricker acknowledged that while he wasn't surprised to see Piercy win, the lop-sided nature of that victory "does catch your attention." Piercy played his 12 holes on Friday in 7 under, too. "Maybe he used them all up today."
These two players couldn't be more different — the flashy Poulter and the steady-Eddy Clark. Poulter, who made seven birdies and no bogeys in beating Bo Van Pelt 3 and 1 in the second round, has prospered at Dove Mountain, too, winning in 2010 and reaching the consolation finals five years earlier. Clark, on the other hand, has never advanced past the third round and admits the 7,791-yard course is a challenge for a man who ranks 176th in driving distance. "On a day like today, I just accepted that and went about hitting good wedge shots," said Clark, who beat Denmark's Thorbjorn Olesen 3 and 2, "Sometimes if I can do that maybe I can get under the skin of my opponent."
Both players lost in the first round a year ago as they made their Accenture Match Play Championship debuts. In fact, until Fernandez-Castano, a former Spanish Amateur champ, beat Francesco Molinari 2 up on Friday morning he had never won a match as a pro on the 18th hole. "I'm starting to love (match play) again," said Fernandez-Castano, who has made fewer bogeys than anyone in the field. Simpson, who has been sick most of the week, has only hit 50 percent of his greens in regulation, including just 10 in 18 holes on Friday, to rank last among the players remaining. He's an opportunistic putter, though, which has carried him through the week.
These two know what it takes to win at Dove Mountain. Mahan is the defending champion while Kaymer reached the title tilt in 2011 before losing to Luke Donald. The two have history, too — Kaymer beat Mahan 2 and 1 on the way to his runner-up finish in 2011. "It was a tough, really tight match, and he became a lot better player the last two years," Kaymer recalled. "I have a lot of respect for him." Mahan has wielded a hot putter this week taking just 44 rolls over 29 holes. "Confidence is high," he said. "I know I can play this place well and I know I can beat anybody on any given day."

Wind for Schools Project Enters 2013 with 124 Turbine Installations
March 29, 2013
This past winter, NREL hosted the Sixth Annual Wind for Schools Summit. Forty-six attendees representing the 11 official Wind for Schools states and various stakeholders met to discuss ways to further improve the Wind for Schools network in the established states and to increase the overall impact of the program. NREL manages this program for the U.S. Department of Energy.
Wind for Schools project states had a productive year in 2012. The Wind Applications Centers helped to install 30 small wind turbines at schools across the country, resulting in a total of 124 installations in the project's fifth year. Nebraska, one of the original six Wind for Schools states, installed seven turbines, increasing the state's total to 25 public school installations since 2008. According to Associate Director Joel Jacobs of the Nebraska Wind Applications Center, the Nebraska Wind for Schools project has had an estimated impact on 8% of the state's public school students since its implementation in fiscal year (FY) 08.
Arizona also had multiple installations in 2012, with eight turbines installed at four schools, bringing the state's total installations to 13 in a 2-year period. Colorado's Wind for Schools project accessed Supplemental Environmental Project funding that ensured an additional four installations in the state.
Established in 2005 to raise awareness in rural America about the benefits of wind energy while simultaneously developing a wind energy workforce and knowledge base in future leaders of our communities, states, and nation, the Wind for Schools project is currently supported in 11 states (Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, North Carolina, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, and Virginia).

Apple's Tim Cook is set to appear in his first television interview since he took over as CEO of the company following Steve Jobs' resignation in August 2011.
The interview will be aired on 6 December on the US network NBC's 'Rock Center With Brian Williams', reports The Next Web.
As part of the interview, which has already been filmed, Cook and Williams visited New York's Grand Central Station, where he greeted the Grand Central Apple Store staff and customers.
In a preview clip of "the first interview of its kind [Cook has] ever granted," Williams said: "Unlike the man he replaced, Steve Jobs, Tim Cook was able to walk all but unrecognised across the central floor of Grand Central Station."
Photo posted on Twitter by Rock Center on 30 November
"Once we got to his Apple Store that changed of course, as devoted fans approached and treated him like a rock star."
We'll bring you more on Cook's interview when it is aired later this week.

Thanks a lot for your answer it gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing that all these is normal. I think we are doing better with nursing. During the day she is ok, sometimes she eats and is awake or sleeps for 2 3 hours, the problem is in the evening, around 7 se nurses a lot, and seems to be always hungry, i dont know if it is normal or if it is just acumulated hunger from the day. Yesterday, after nursing from 7 to 11 every 10 minutes, i tried to express milk but didnt get much, finally i gave her some formula and she slept until 6 this morning. I want to stop the night bottle (it was the only one during the day)
She can now eat more each time according to the scale, my left nipple just began tu hurt yesterday, after nursing it seem white and hard. But during nursing it doesnt hurt at all. I think i need to relax more and trust my body.

Although formal notions of realization were already used by computer scientists and mathematicians, Hilary Putnam popularized the idiom for philosophers in the 1960s as a way to describe relations implicated by the machine functionalist view of the mind. Specifically, Putnam said that an abstract machine as well as a machine table or description is realized by a physical machine. Philosophers then began to use the idiom in a more general way to designate various types of inter-level relations, not just the relation between mental states and brain states, but persons and bodies, biological items in relation to more basic structural or chemical items, and so on. More recently, philosophers present concepts of realization as a better way to account for inter-level relations than competing concepts of supervenience, emergence, and grounding.
|Key works
|One may categorize different concepts of realization in terms of three basic conceptual traditions. First there is a semantic tradition whereby "to be realized" names a semantic relation, e.g., the satisfaction of a predicate by an object (Lewis 1972). Second there is a mathematical tradition whereby "to be realized" names a mapping or correspondence relation, e.g., a one-to-one mapping between the states of an abstract machine and a concrete physical machine (Putnam 1960; Chalmers 1994). Third there is a metaphysical tradition whereby "to be realized" names a relation of determination or a related notion of inter-level production. This metaphysical tradition itself divides into several different views. There is realization understood in terms of parts and wholes (Cummins 1983; Gillett 2002). There is realization by functional roles and occupation (Papineau 1993; Melnyk 1994; Kim 1998), or broader notions of function (Polger 2004). There is fusion of part-whole realization with functional role and occupation realization (Endicott 2011). There is realization understood in terms of determinables and determinates (Macdonald & Macdonald 1986; Yablo 1992). There is wide versus narrow realization (Wilson 2001). There is realization by a contextually sensitive INUS condition that allows for a type of converse to multiple realizability (Endicott 1994). And there is realization understood in terms of subsets of causal powers (Wilson 1999, 2011; Shoemaker 2001, 2007). Philosophers have also argued that concepts of realization are better at preserving physicalist intutions over rival concepts of supervenience (Melnyk 1994, 2003; Wilson 1999; Witmer 2001), debated the connection between concepts of realization and subsequent judgments about multiple realizability (Shapiro 2004; Gillett 2002; Aizawa & Gillett 2009), discussed the ontology of realization (Shapiro 2008; Endicott 2010; Gillett 2011), and made proposals about the different theoretical role for different concepts of realization (Gillett 2002; Polger 2007; Endicott 2012).
There are a few general introductions: Ronald Endicott's (2005) encyclopedia article on multiple realizability contains a section dedicated to concepts of realization; and Carl Craver and Robert Wilson's (2006) entry in a handbook on the philosophy of psychology and cognitive science addresses some basic views on realization in both philosophy and the sciences. A paper by Thomas Polger (2007) also covers some broad territory regarding different concepts of realization.

Women's Golf Looks to Improve on Program Record
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – After a week off of play the women's golf team returns action at the SIUE Double Tree Invitational. The two-day event begins on Monday, Sept. 22 at the Par-72, 6,070 yard Sunset Hills Country Club in Edwardsville, Ill.
The Tigers look to build on their performance at the MSU Drake Invitational two weeks ago. TSU shot the teams best round in school history during the Monday morning session. The Tigers carded a 335 and was led by freshman Erica Edwards who shot a 6-over, 78.
Head coach Parrish McGrath will take a full squad to compete in the SIU Edwardsville competition. Sophomore Amelia Dap will take to the course for her first competition of the season and will join fellow classmates Laura Bremer, Kelly Merkel and Sarah Needleman, along with freshman Erica Edwards and Natalie Spicer.
The Tigers will be a part of a 10 team field, which includes Ashford, Eastern Illinois, Evansville, IPFW, Lipscomb, UNO, Valparaiso, Western Illinois and the host, SIUE.
The Invitational is scheduled for 36-holes, with each day consisting of one 18-hole round. Both days are scheduled for an 8:00am shotgun start.
