Case Law
*R (on the application of H) v Wandsworth London Borough Council / R (on the application of Barhanu) v Hackney London Borough Council / R (on the application of B) v Islington London Borough Council
Case date: 23 April 2007
These three cases were applications for judicial review. The applicants in each case were children, seeking asylum and on their own. In each case, issues came up regarding:
(i) whether the children could be treated as a 'former relevant child', which would mean that they were eligible for services and/or support under the Children (Leaving Care) Act 2000 (the 'leaving care provisions').
The sticking point was whether the fact that the children had been 'looked after' for more than the given period of 13 weeks.
(ii) whether the relevant government circular gave wrong advice about the law which covered a local authority's assessment of unaccompanied asylum-seeking minors, that were within their control, and needed housing. (The relevant government circular was 'Local Authority Circular No Lac (2003) 13' (LAC(2003)13).)
With regard to point (i) above, the court had to decide on the following situation.

This unusual park near Atlanta was created to protect a 100-acre granite monadnock (mountain) often compared to Stone Mountain and Arabia Mountain. Minimally developed, Panola Mountain shelters rare plants of the Piedmont region. Hikers may explore the park's watershed and granite outcrop on their own, or they may join park staff for guided hikes onto the restricted-access mountain. Children especially enjoy the interpretive center with animal exhibits. Due to its delicate ecological features, Panola Mountain was designated a National Natural Landmark, and pets and bicycles are not allowed on trails.

The desire of state leadership to encourage a sense of regionalism across the state was much of the focus of discussion among Greater Rome Chamber of Commerce Governmental Affairs committee members Wednesday.
State Rep. Katie Dempsey, R-Rome, recalled the initial meeting of representatives from across the 15-county region related to the development of a project list for the transportation tax.
"They didn't want to be there," Dempsey said. "It was wonderful to witness as they figured out how important it is to work together."
Angie Lewis, chairwoman of the Greater Rome Chamber of Commerce, told the committee that leaders from the
Floyd, Bartow and Gordon county chambers will participate in a joint photo shoot next week to begin a last-minute effort to sway voters to support the transportation tax.
"We decided to save our limited advertising budget until the very end," Lewis said.
Not everyone was sold on the regional teamwork concept.
"People in Polk County have absolutely no interest in what's going on in Murray County," said Rich Hammond, former Bekaert plant manager. "I don't know if there is a quasi-sub-regional approach that can be tied to Rome."
Hammond brought up the Ga. 400 tollbooth issue to illustrate how citizens have become disgruntled with government.
"Continuing the toll on 400 played right into their hands," Hammond said. "The timing of that couldn't have been worse."
The tollbooths were supposed to have been taken down after bonds to pay for the road project northeast of Atlanta had been paid off, but the state just announced that those booths would remain in place even though the bonds have now been paid.
Dempsey pointed out that the TSPLOST is restricted to 10 years. It could only be extended with voter approval.
"There is a lot of information flowing around that is incorrect," said Ansley Saville, who chairs the chamber committee.
She said a no vote would send a negative message to potential industries looking at sites across the entire 15-county Northwest Georgia region.
"The whole thing is economics," said Rome City Commissioner Buzz Wachsteter. "It's not about roads; it's about jobs."
Saville agreed, concluding, "I don't think any one of us wants taxes, but the bottom line is jobs."
The TSPLOST is expected to raise $1.4 billion during a 10-year period to finance road projects across the Northwest Georgia region.
Key Floyd County projects to be funded include the widening of Ga. 140 from Armuchee east to Interstate 75 in Bartow County and the widening of Ga. 101 from the Ledbetter Interchange south to Rockmart. Funds for the U.S. 411 connector to I-75 are also included on the list.

December App Store Report: Breaking Down Recommendation Methods and Services
Note: We are making some changes to the WIP App Store Catalog, and the monthly App Store Report, based on feedback from our community members to make it even more useful and accurate. Be sure to stay tuned for the January report to see the changes, and leave any of your thoughts or feedback in the comments below.
This monthly report is available in PDF format, and is based on the entries from the WIP App Store Catalog (http://www.wipconnector.com/appstores), the leading resource listing app stores for mobile developers.
In the early days of the app store phenomenon, most attention was focused on the degree to which the stores solve the distribution problem for mobile developers. Gone (supposedly) were the days when simply getting your application out to end users was a major challenge, as app stores made it easy for nearly anybody to make their app available to the masses. This led to another significant challenge, one that's still a big problem for many developers...

I usually run in the VIVOBarefoot shoes, so these shoes felt like I had balloons under my feet. I ordered a half size up which I highly recommend. Many people have said that the heel rubs, but I didn't have a problem. I usually have a problem with the heel rubbing too, so I don't know why a lot of people are. Although they are very cushy, they are very light and my feet were very happy when running. I'm used to minimalist shoes, so when I read that these were minimalist I had to try them. I believe they are far from it. I felt like Tigger running. Very bouncy. But after about 500 feet I got used to it. If you're looking for a shoe that has amazing cushion and lightweight, I would go with these. But if you're looking for a minimalist shoe, these are a little too cushioned for that.

Three words: Best. Shoe. Ever! I love these Brooks! They are so lightweight, and even cuter in person. There is so much cushion in the sole, it's incredible! I wear a size nine and I think they make my feet look smaller than most other tennis shoes do. In one day I got several compliments on them. Another benefit - great arch support. I usually wear custom orthotics to support my collapsing arches, but these shoes do the trick all by themselves. However, the insole is removable is someone wanted to wear different inserts or orthotics in the shoe.

Karena Elizabeth Harrison
- Application 10843-2011
- Admitted 2001
- Hearing 21 February 2012
- Reasons 27 March 2012
The SDT ordered that the respondent should pay a fine of £5,000.
The respondent had failed to file with the Solicitors Regulation Authority within the required period accountant's reports for the years ending 30 November 2008 and 30 November 2009, contrary to section 34 of the Solicitors Act 1974 and rule 35 of the Solicitors Accounts Rules 1998; and in breach of rules 4.1, 4.3 and 10.1 of the Solicitors Indemnity Insurance Rules 2009 and rule 5.01 of the Solicitors Code of Conduct 2007 she had failed to take out indemnity insurance for the 2009/2010 indemnity year, she had failed to take out run-off cover for the period of six years from the closure of her firm on 31 October 2009, and she had failed to apply to the assigned risks pool for indemnity cover and/or run-off cover.
The SDT said that it was a sad case where the respondent had clearly got into financial difficulties and had found herself unable to deal with her financial and regulatory obligations as a result. The SDT noted that it did not appear that any clients had suffered financially and took into account the respondent's previous good record. The SDT decided the appropriate sanction in this case was to fine the respondent £5,000.
The respondent was ordered to pay costs of £5,000.

Even Jules Verne did not foresee this one. Deep down at the very bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, geochemist Andrea Koschinsky has found something truly extraordinary: "It's water," she says, "but not as we know it."
At over 3 kilometres beneath the surface, sitting atop what could be a huge bubble of magma, it's the hottest water ever found on Earth. The fluid is in a "supercritical" state that has never before been seen in nature.
The fluid spews out of two black smokers called Two Boats and Sisters Peak.
Koschinsky, from Jacobs University in Bremen, Germany, says it is somewhere between a gas and a liquid. She thinks it could offer a first glimpse at how essential minerals and nutrients like gold, copper and iron are leached out of the entrails of the Earth and released into the oceans.
Liquids boil and evaporate as temperature and pressure rise. But push both factors beyond a critical point and something odd happens: the gas and liquid phase merge into one supercritical fluid. For water, this fluid is denser than vapour, but lighter than liquid water.
Hot 'bubble'
Water and seawater have both been pushed past this critical point in labs, but until Koschinsky and her colleagues sailed to just south of the Atlantic equator in 2006, no-one had seen supercritical fluids in nature. Geochemists suspected that if they were to find them anywhere, they would be coming out of very deep hydrothermal vents.
In 2005, a team of scientists including Koschinsky visited 5° south, as part as a six-year project to investigate the southern end of the mid-Atlantic Ridge. There, they discovered a new set of vents, which they revisited in 2006 and 2007, lowering a thermometer into them each time.
Computer models suggest that the fluid that comes out of these black smokers initially seeps down into surrounding cracks in the seabed, gradually getting deeper and hotter as it approached the Earth's magma. Eventually, at 407 °C and 300 bars of pressure, the water becomes supercritical.
Because supercritical water is far less dense than liquid water, it shoots up to the seabed like a bubble and it is spat out into the ocean through vents.
Powering life
From their first visit in 2005, the team found temperatures in the vents were at least 407 °C, and even reached 464 °C for periods of 20 seconds.
Supercritical water leaches metals and other elements out of rock far more efficiently than liquid water or vapour. Gold, copper, iron, manganese, sulphur and many more are brought out of the Earth's guts when the water is ejected from the black smokers.
Some, such as sulphur, provide energy to the locally adapted organisms, which have no light to power a food chain. Manganese is similarly used as an energy source by microbes higher up in the water column. Iron is essential for the growth of all phytoplankton.
Koschinsky estimates up to half the manganese and one tenth of the iron found in the oceans could come from vents. But because supercritical fluids have never been observed in nature, little is really known about how this happens.
Melting equipment
"We stand to greatly improve our models of fluid circulation and heat and mass transfer," says Margaret Tivey, a geochemist at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) in Massachusetts.
Because of the extreme conditions, computer models are the only way of understanding the processes that drag elements out of the seafloor at hot vents. "It's not yet possible to drill into active vents," explains Koschinsky. "Temperatures are so high, much of drilling equipment would melt and joins would not work anymore." The data from the new vents will be invaluable in testing the models.
"The findings are significant," says Dan Fornari, also of WHOI. "The high temperature of the venting is especially interesting as this [mid-ocean ridge] does not spread very rapidly."
The Pacific spreads faster than the Atlantic, bringing magma closer to the seabed. For this reason, geochemists expected to find supercritical seawater there too. "So one can presume that this portion of the south mid-Atlantic ridge is in a very magmatic phase and has been for a few years," adds Fornari.
'Dry as a biscuit'
In the Pacific, vents tend to cool after a year or so, but it is likely that the Two Boats and Sisters Peak have been active since an earthquake shook the region in 2002. "The magma body underneath is probably enormous," says Koschinsky.
Her colleague Colin Devey of the University of Kiel in Germany is not so sure. "The explanation could be that there's lot of magma, but after a few more years of high temperatures, it's going to get to the point where it will be embarrassing how much magma there needs to be to maintain them for that long."
He thinks the long-standing temperatures could indicate something more fundamental. The fact that vents cool much more quickly in the Pacific could indicate the crust there is much more water-logged than it is in the Atlantic, where it could be "dry as a biscuit".
"If that turns out to be the case then we will have taken down some very, very holy grails," says Devey.

You don't have a clue as to what actually drives climate.
I will give you a hint, it isn't CO2. Instead of listening to the IPCC alarmists try doing a little research on climate history, read the peer reviewed skeptical papers instead of the NASA and IPCC approved hogwash.
Some Science Please!
Mon Aug 04 14:57:55 BST 2008 by Dimitris
Liquids boil and evaporate as temperature and pressure rise.
This phrase is absolutely not true. Water boils EITHER as temperature rises OR as pressure drops. It boils at 100 C only at an exact atmospheric pressure of 1 atm. If you increase the pressure, you increase the energy it takes for the water to evaporate, thus its temperature. Also, it is not the first time supercritical water has been observed in nature. Everytime the pressure is more than 1 atm, water needs more than 100 C to boil. Which means that even on a normal day that has a bit of a high pressure, it takes some extra fraction of a degree C to boil it. What has been observed here is not the first natural case of supercriticality, but the highest temperature to occur naturally.
Some Science Please!
Mon Aug 04 15:29:34 BST 2008 by Matthys
Supercritical means that the particles have so much energy that it is impossible to keep it in the liquid phase by applying more pressure.
The critical temperature in this regard does not depend on pressure.
An insightful way to define the critical temperature would be: The temperature above which the phase of the material is independent of the pressure.

"An insightful way to define the critical temperature would be: The temperature above which the phase of the material is independent of the pressure."
Are you sure about this? The phase diagram given on the Wikipedia Supercritical Fluid page doesn't seem to support this. Unless I'm interpreting it incorrectly, it requires both a temperature greater than 401.3 ÃÂC and a pressure greater than 218.3 atm; if either of these criteria aren't met, the fluid isn't supercritical.
Or have I misunderstood?
Some Science Please!

As I understand it, the reason the graph puts *dotted* lines in place at the values you quote is that they define mathematical rather than physical boundaries. The point about supercritical fluids, is that there *is* no phase change between them and liquid, or between them and gas. You could "tune" temperature and pressure, moving the system from somewhere inside the "q" of the "liquid" label, to somewhere inside the "a" of the "gas label", and as long as you passed around the top right of the supercritical point, there would be no phase change.
So taking the strict meaning of the word "phase", he's right: there's no phase change dependent on pressure, between gaseous water and liquid water, at a temperature greater than the supercritical one. The system exhibits a gradual variation of physical properties, rather than a step change, with the dotted line showing where that variation begins rather than where it happens.
Some Science Please!
Wed Aug 06 03:23:55 BST 2008 by Jbengt
Actually, supercritical means above the critical point, that is above both the critical pressure and the critical temperature.
In the supercritical region there are no distinct liquid and gas phases - no boiling, no condensing, just a fluid; more compressible than the typical liquid and less compressible than the typical gas.

Change Electionby digbyI don't know if anyone's noticed, but George W. Bush is being disappeared from the presidential campaign and everyone's running against incumbent Hillary Clinton. Subtly, but relentlessly, the public psyche is being prepared to deny Junior ever existed. And it could work. For many different reasons, most Americans want nothing more than to forget George W. Bush was ever president. So, we see a very odd subliminal narrative taking shape in which the blame for the nation's failures of the last seven years is being shifted to Clinton (and the "do-nothing" Democratic congress) as if the Codpiece hasn't been running things since 2000. (Not that the radical wingnuts haven't always blamed the Clenis for everything, but the disappearing of Bush is a new element.)I certainly don't blame the Republicans for trying to do it. It makes sense, since their boy is an epic failure and the original Clinton is still very present in people's minds. It will be quite a trick to pull off, but I can see the press already helping them do it. (Naturally.)It's an interesting phenomenon and one for which I hope the Democratic strategists are prepared. Their underlying theme seems to be, "If you want change, vote Republican!". digby 10/28/2007 01:30:00 PM

Brand Spanking New! That is correct, Buzz and Mikey interviewed TV for the MSIG Army. This is a 30 minute or so Podcast interview.
This was conducted by phone before upcoming Tesco Vee's Hate Police mini midwest tour with White Flag.
Tesco Vee Interview
Here is a quick interview that I have been sitting on for the last 3 months or so, but this was conducted via myspace over a couple of days. Deek is the lead vocalist for the Scottish Anarcho punk rock band
This was conducted right before they embarked on their 2006 European tour.
OI POLOOI Interview
Patrick dug this out of his vault the other day and scanned it in for the site. This was conducted back in September of 1991 for the Carbondale Nitelife, the local entertainment guide for southern Illinois. It was conducted by Aaron Nauth local fanzine writer and journalist for the CN. It is a big one 724k or so, but it is in high rez so you could read it. Shows you we haven't really changed much in 15 years.
To tell you the truth, I don't even remember doing this.
MSIG Interview
Well here it is the infamous
Impulse Manslaughter
interview that was conducted at the Lost Cross House back in January 1987. The tape that was lost for 15 years and then unearthed in a box in my attic, discovered while moving into my new home. The tape had to be manually forwarded to the end and then back in order to loosen it up so that I could digitize it for the MSIG archive vaults. This is an audio podcast interview.
Podcast Interview
Vic Bondi is one of the scenes most vocal and outspoken of progressive views in the hardcore scene. Originally from the Chicago area and founder of the influential hardcore band Articles of Faith, which lasted from 1981 until its released its final full length album in 1985. Since then Vic has been busy being a professional businessman and father, releasing a few independent project over the last twenty years. Vic teamed up with J. Robbins to release the powerful and relevant
Report Suspicious Activity
on Alternative Tentacles. Vic took some time to conduct this interview via email with MSIG right before they embark on their mini east coast tour to support the new CD. RSA played in Chicago on Feb. 18th, at Subterranean.
Phillip Hill is a prolific musician hailing from Nashville, TN, now hanging out in Chicago while his latest band The Queers, are taking a break from their world tour. Phil started playing in the speed Metal Hardcore band Caustic Solutions back in the late eighties at the ripe old age of 16. He then started his power Punk Rock band the Teen Idols that had a long ten year plus run, playing in several continents and abruptly breaking up among differences within the band. Phil is just taking a break before he heads to Australia for a couple of weeks. Phil took some time to conduct this interview via email with MSIG.
The Bottletones are a prolific Rockabilly/Psychobilly/Surf outfit that originated in the summer of 1992, located in Carbondale, Illinois. Now playing as a four piece the band has seen some members come and go and name changes over the years. Originally starting out as Captain Rock and the Bottletones, the only original member and core to the band was John Collins also known as Ace Bottletone. Now in their 13
year and 4 records later, the band rocks on. MSIG tracked down the prolific lead axe man to get the scoop on the future of the band.
WDBX radio station is an independent volunteer run organization located in southern Illinois in a small college town of Carbondale. Maybe you heard of it? No well, the station, what it lacks in bandwidth is rich in unique and diverse range of music that you cannot hear on the corporate run stations that glut the airwaves in this country. No you won't hear Buttfuck Boys or Brittany Spears here.... Just the stuff that is only found on college and independently run stations. For Carbondale this is a jewel in the Nile. Broadcasting from 7 am to 3 am daily with a thirty mile radius...
The Traitors are a loud, obnoxious hardcore band that puts on an entertaining show, to say the least. An average show contains nudity, stand-up comedy and an insane amount of physical abuse towards their lead singer, Billy (vocals). Francisco (bass), Marc (guitar) and Noah (drums) are a very tight band, and when you combine them with the unique singing style of Billy, you get a powerhouse of sound. We recently interviewed them after their record release party at Fireside Bowl in Chicago.

Below is a list of previous events that have taken place in Scotland.
Glasgow, Thursday 1 December 2011
The Scotland directorate is pleased to welcome Michael Rubenstein, publisher of the Equal Opportunities Review, General Editor of the Equality Law Reports and Editor of the IRLR.
Michael will deliver a lecture on 'Key employment and discrimination cases 2011-2012: a preview'
This event is free however places are limited. To book a place, request further information, or for assistance with booking, please email email@example.com or phone 0141 228 5967. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help facilitate your participation in this event – for instance communications support, access or dietary requirements.
Glasgow, Tuesday 27th October 2011
Three years on from the start of the recession and a year after the introduction of the Equality Act 2010, this free conference will re-enforce your knowledge of how to protect equality within the workplace.
Attendees will hear from speakers on subjects ranging from approaches to resolving disputes at the earliest opportunity, on changes to the employment tribunal service, on decisions made by tribunals under the new equality act and on how to go beyond employment tribunal decisions. Speakers will include Shona Simon, President of Employment Tribunals (Scotland).
Who should come?
The event is for those who offer information, advice and representation on employee rights at work. It will be particularly relevant to those with a good knowledge of the law or with a legal background. If you are unsure whether this would be relevant to your work, please contact us to discuss.
Glasgow, Tuesday 4th October 2011 (rescheduled from 8th September 2011)
The Equality Act 2010 introduced a new Public Sector Equality Duty designed to ensure that public authorities consider the impact of their work on all groups that they serve and employ. The duty requires public authorities to have due regard to the need to eliminate discrimination, advance equality of opportunity and foster good relations. It should enable better informed decision-making and policy development so that services are appropriate and accessible to all, and meet different people's needs.
This full day event will help you, as a voluntary or community organisation plan how to use the duty to ensure that public services meet the diverse needs of your communities. The day will be split between a morning of presentations delivered by experts from the Commission, with time for discussion and workshops in the afternoon.
Who should come?
The event is for voluntary or community organisations who are serving communities and working towards achieving equality. If you are unsure whether this would be relevant to your work, please contact us to discuss.
Glasgow, Wednesday 5th October 2011
The Equality Act 2010 was intended to simplify equality laws by bringing them together into one practical act whilst adding new provisions. The act sets out what unlawful discrimination means in employment, education and when using services. One year on from the introduction of the act, this event will give us the opportunity to tell you how the act has worked, what discrimination means and who is protected. We will separate unfairness from discrimination, demonstrate when discrimination might be unlawful and suggest what you can do about it.
We will focus on individual protection against discrimination and explain the implications of the legislation for you and your service users. There will be time for case studies and discussion. The purpose of the event is to help you better understand and use the Equality Act 2010.
Who should come?
The event is for people who give advice or assistance directly to the public from voluntary, community and educational organisations. If you are unsure whether this would be relevant to your work, please contact us to discuss.

2000 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer Review
ProsRoomy, great gadgets Consgas mileage, I am averaging 19.7 mpg, pretty good for a heavy SUV
Eddie Bauer Explorer — This is a great SUV. It has leather, and a whole lot of gadgets. It has a back up beep system, tells me when the oil needs changing, how far I can go on the tank of gas, and the mpg. It has air conditioner controls in the back, as well as seperate radio controls for the rear passengers. Primary Use: Family transportation

2000 Ford Explorer Review
Prosall of the limited edition's bells & whistles, the no-fail ride on rough roads and through snow/ice Consthe gas consumption
Love My Limited Explorer — I went from a small Soob sedan to my Explorer. I don't know why I haven't been driving one all along. I LOVE my Explorer. I live in a rural northern area, where there is snow, ice, wind and lots of travel on gravel or dirt roads. This vehicle is built for this lifestyle. Inside, the limited is absolutely gorgeous. Mine now has 86K on it and no problems. I'm thinking that in a year or so, I'll trade this in for yet another. | ||

2000 Ford Explorer XLT AWD Review
ProsCapable in the snow and bad weather ConsPretty much everything else...slow acceleration, poor gas mileage, low build quality, etc, etc.
Fix Or Repair Daily = F-o-r-d — Ok, if you can't say something nice...don't say anything at all. Here's something nice: It was great in the snow; I felt very safe in the bad weather. HOWEVER... It was a total piece of junk. I bought it with 39,000 miles on the odo, had it for no more than 1 week...and the transmission blew up. I replaced the Oxygen sensor and an exhaust gas sensor to try to cure a stalling problem (it eventually went away on its own). The power steering pump was moaning very loudly at 55,000 miles. When I got rid of it with 61,000 miles...the transmission was slipping again. Enough is enough! Build quality in the interior was terrible...lots of cheap trim pieces. The cloth seats were very comfortable, though. It had the base 4.0 V6 with 160 horsepower. Acceleration was TERRIBLE. Merging onto the highway involved a planted right foot and lots of prayers. Gas mileage was pretty bad (14-15mpg average no matter what, even on the highway). I may have just been unlucky and wound up with a lemon...but, I'd have to think long and hard about whether I'd buy another Ford ever again. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

2000 Ford Explorer XLS Review
ProsAppearance has stayed good and mileage is acceptable ConsNone
Great Used Truck — I bought this car 16 months ago and it had 68,000 miles on it. It is in excellent condition with no rust whatsoever. The acceleration and braking is average; the handling is good. I have needed no repairs and have had only oil changes so far. The gas mileage is what you would expect for a truck, around 22-23 miles per gallon. I wouldn't say this is a "fun" car to drive, but it definitely exceeded my expectations when I purchased it. Overall, I would give my vehicle a B+. | ||

2000 Ford Explorer XLT 4WD Review
ProsHandling in winter / capability / comfort / styling ConsGas mileage (with 4.10) / sway bar links break fairly easily
2000 Ford Explorer 4 Door 4x4 — After having my '96 for 5 years, it and it being my first vehicle and all, i had quite the hard time leaving it but this has been a pretty great replacement. Bought it with 92k miles. Since then I have put on new tires, new sway bar links, new tensioner pulley, new belt, new spark plugs and wires and that has been about it. It came with a 4.10 rear axle with no limited slip however a quick run to the junk yard and a days worth of work and i had myself a 4.10 limited slip. Its not great for gas mileage (19 at best on highway) but it really puts every ounce of power the truck has got down to the pavement and it will haul our 4 place enclosed snowmobile trailer loaded up and everything at 70 mph. ( I also added air shocks in the rear as well so that helps a lot with load leveling and such) Other than that, it sits well on the road, I keep er' cleaned up all the time and she looks sharp, have been EXTREMELY happy with both my Explorer's! Been bullet proof for me! Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

Clashes between M23 rebels and U.N. supported soldiers have forced tens of thousands to flee Goma, a provincial capital in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The U.N. Security Council has voiced concerns that the rebels are receiving external support from neighboring countries.

The U.N. Security Council strongly condemned M23 rebels in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo on Tuesday for seizing a provincial capital, as the United Nations defended its peacekeepers who gave up the battle for the city of Goma.

Caught with a dream catcher
My dreams have been shattered.
OK. Not all of my dreams, just the ones residing in the web of a dream catcher that once hung from the rearview mirror in my car.
It was a harmless decoration that reminded me daily of a roadside Navajo market in The-Middle-Of-Nowhere, AZ.
The Native American women said the cedar seeds were called ghost beads and they would ward off evil spirits.
I was told also that the dangling feathers were from an eagle and that legend says the web filters dreams, delivering only positive or important messages.
I got the message, all right.
I knew when the Nebraska State Patrol was conducting a day-long checkpoint at the I-80 rest area between Maxwell and Brady. I certainly didn't think troopers would still be flagging down cars after dark, though, when I was hurrying to get from Ogallala to Gothenburg.
As I wound my way through what seemed like hundreds of cars and officers, I thought only of how much this would put me behind schedule.
My driver's license, insurance and registration are all current. The head lights, tail lights, blinkers, brakes, horn and windshield wipers on my car work perfectly.
So why did it take the trooper so long to return my papers? He was writing me a fix-it ticket!
"Ma'am, I'll have to ask you to remove that thing hanging from your mirror. It could be obstructing your view."
I seriously wanted to argue. It's a dream catcher, for crying out loud. I can see right through it. The only thing really obstructing my view was the 22 cars in line ahead of me blinking, flashing and honking.
But I didn't say a word. I sadly untied the soft leather loop and carefully laid the dream catcher in the seat next to me.
Because I'd "fixed" the problem, the officer handed me the authorized ticket and sent me on my way. The extra time spent scribbling on a meaningless piece of paper, though, meant I'd missed the volleyball game, supper and "The Office" on NBC.
I drove home in disbelief.
That was a couple of weeks ago and I have since returned the dream catcher to its hanging position in my car. Hopefully now my recurring nightmare about the Nebraska football team will go away.

FAQ & Rules
I am truly happy that the Doctor has been able to move on as Eleven, that he's been able to find some peace and happiness. But I believe in quiet moments, when he's alone his thoughts drift to Rose, and he wonders, like the rest of us, how she's coping in the alternate universe with John Smith.
I don't think that the Bad Wolf was Rose. I think it was the TARDIS using Rose as a vessel to save the Doctor.
Don't get me wrong, Rose was my favorite companion. But I think David Tennant's regeneration was even more sad than when Rose got stuck in the parallel world.
If a guy like the Ninth Doctor grabs my hand and after that I start seeing weird things, I'd punch and kick him and ran as fast as I could, because I'd believe I was drugged and he wants to kidnap me…The actions of the characters are unrealistic, and the creators are kind of irresponsible.This is not a story I would teach to young girls.
In my opinon each version of the Doctor is a new man, the memories of those who came before him are just thoughts, no emotion. Just like reading a book the Doctor as loved before and will love again. But there is no problem with 10/Rose and 11/River because like a sea captain his only true and constant love is his ship and the sea (the T.A.R.D.I.S. and time & space).
I am currently on series 3, and I really like Martha, but I just miss Rose SO MUCH!
Every time I watch the end of Journeys End I wonder if the same thing happened to the human doctor as what happened to Donna (his human brain overloading), and it breaks my heart.

Europeans are often blamed for their lack of global leadership. Aviation and global warming are different. The world has been dragging its feet for over a decade when it comes to carbon emissions and pollution from flying. Now Europe is stepping up in a leadership role, writes Gernot Wagner of the Environmental Defense Fund, while others remain in a holding pattern.
Part of the solution is a shift in the way we look at air travel. Flying from New York to London for a three-hour meeting is absurd, to put it mildly. The cost of one roundtrip business-class ticket could pay for a professional-grade video conferencing system — on both ends.
Voluntarily giving up your seat won't do, either. Even if you don't board a plane for that meeting, someone else will be waiting to cross the Atlantic to make the sale. As long as showing up in person is expected practice, a handful of environmentally aware dissenters won't make a difference on a global scale.
Another option is to voluntarily offset your emissions. That's a good start. But once again, we cannot rely on volunteers alone. Sooner rather than later, everyone landing at one of the 50,000-odd airports around the world — especially the dozens of major hubs — to take responsibility for cutting his or her own pollution.
Iif the world is to avert catastrophic climate shifts, global warming pollution must go down, not up. And global warming impacts from flying are slated to keep going up — unless nations actually put a cap on the carbon emissions of aviation.
That's exactly what the European Union did as of January 1 of this year. While it's easy to accuse the Europeans of failing to show global leadership on some issues, aviation pollution is not one of them.
The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), a special agency of the United Nations, was charged by its members in 1997 with regulating the sector's global warming pollution. But the ICAO has dragged its feet for over a decade.
The actual cost per transatlantic ticket is tiny — about $3. And airlines could even profit. Some carriers have already incorporated the cost estimate into their pricing.
The EU law covers only about a third of aviation's global emissions, but it's a start. The goal, of course, must be worldwide coverage: a global industry requires global regulation.
Last year I took my first flight from New York to Bangkok via Doha, avoiding the usual European hubs. It's by far the cheapest itinerary. Qatar Airways has gone to great lengths to become a global player, and the decision of the government of Qatar to host the next big UN climate meeting this December will put Qatar Airways' environmental performance in the spotlight.
Brussels, fortunately, realizes the global dimension of it all: Flights to and from the EU are covered no matter who the carrier is, and the EU law is lending new impetus to efforts in ICAO to try to achieve a global agreement next year. Even if ICAO fails to agree on a target, provisions in the EU law encourage other countries to pursue their own, comparable policies.
Instead of Air India protesting Brussels' move, New Delhi could take its own steps to limit the carbon pollution of Europe-bound flights from India, and therby exempt those flights from the European cap. If the Indian government issued and auctioned its own pollution allowances, it could direct the resulting revenues toward addressing the social cost of carbon, especially for its poorest and most vulnerable citizens.
That creates important dynamics. It wouldn't take long, for instance, for Delhi to decide that it should not treat flights to Frankfurt differently than those to Doha.
This is, of course, a roundabout way of covering the world's flights. Ideally, the ICAO would put in place an airtight global cap. That may yet happen. But in the meantime, a cascading bottom-up, one-by-one approach may be the best we can do.
The policy can and should prompt greater awareness of — and responsibility for — reducing the environmental consequences of air travel. It is also the most hand-off approach imaginable: Each airline is free to decide how best to meet its cap, and the trading spurs the aerospace industry to apply its formidable innovation capabilities in developing better, cheaper and faster ways to cut pollution.
Small, smart policies can generate step changes in favor of the environment. From Washington, D.C., to Ireland, tiny fees for plastic bags — so-called "PlasTaxes," applies at the cash register just when you're ready to leave the store — have nudged consumers to cut bag use, meaning less waste to landfills, fewer clogged urban storm drains, and few plastic-festooned forests.
Treating the atmosphere as a dumpster isn't a sustainable option. The European Union is showing the way forward with its small, smart aviation policy. Leading companies like NetJets are already on board. Let's hope Europe's law nudges jet-setters globally to a more responsible approach to travel.

Replying to Tabber Widget Does Not Display Google Maps Correctly

The example site to show the map display problem is http://www.3649campanildr.com/, Look under the 'Lot Map' tab to see the problem. As I've said above, if I place the same Google Map widget into a new iThemes layout widget area on the same page, the map displays properly...
Posted 20 June 2012 - 05:05 PM
When I insert either a Google Map widget or a shortcode in TinyMCE representing either a small or large Google Map, the map frame displays properly with typical Google identifiers, scale marker, map type, zoom, etc, but the actual map is only rendered in maybe 1/5 of the upper quarter of the map space. Attempting to drag the rendered portion of the map shows that the map is updating the drag, but never renders the map beyond the small upper left corner boundary. This behavior is both on IE9 and FireFox browsers and replicates on several other computers on different networks. I need help to either work around the problem or fix the problem of displaying Google Maps within a tab!!

A Lady Cyclist's Guide to Kashgar: A Novel
Suzanne Joinson
Bloomsbury USA/historical fiction
Release Date: June 4, 2012
It is 1923. Evangeline (Eva) English and her sister Lizzie are missionaries heading for the ancient Silk Road city of Kashgar. Though Lizzie is on fire with her religious calling, Eva's motives are not quite as noble, but with her green bicycle and a commission from a publisher to write A Lady Cyclist's Guide to Kashgar, she is ready for adventure.
In present day London, a young woman, Frieda, returns from a long trip abroad to find a man sleeping outside her front door. She gives him a blanket and a pillow, and in the morning finds the bedding neatly folded and an exquisite drawing of a bird with a long feathery tail, some delicate Arabic writing, and a boat made out of a flock of seagulls on her wall. Tayeb, in flight from his Yemeni homeland, befriends Frieda and, when she learns she has inherited the contents of an apartment belonging to a dead woman she has never heard of, they embark on an unexpected journey together.
A Lady Cyclist's Guide to Kashgar explores the fault lines that appear when traditions from different parts of an increasingly globalized world crash into one other. Beautifully written, and peopled by a cast of unforgettable characters, the novel interweaves the stories of Frieda and Eva, gradually revealing the links between them and the ways in which they each challenge and negotiate the restrictions of their societies as they make their hard-won way toward home. A Lady Cyclist's Guide to Kashgar marks the debut of a wonderfully talented new writer.
There is no doubt that Suzanne Joinson is an extremely talented writer. You could feel the heat and dust blowing across parched skin, smell the acrid stench of animals in the market and hear the shrill cry of a sick and motherless infant. If you are looking for a sensory experience, you will be hard pressed to find another so rich and realistic.
I have spent several days trying to pin down my feelings on the story. Joinson presents us with a plethora of deeply flawed characters and places them in apparently hopeless situations. In the end, I found it was just….sad. There are hopeful moments and it is beautifully presented, but it isn't a story that leaves you feeling warm and content.
My verdict: Read it. It is a beautifully done, albeit melancholy, story.

Obama acts as though we no longer have a Constitution
Independent voices from the TWT Communities
The Arab Spring that prompted the ouster of authoritarian regimes in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya also led to the rise of Islamists who are bent on creating Islamic states that adhere to Shariah law — and that fate could await Syria after dictator Bashar Assad falls.
A former U.S. ambassador with extensive knowledge of terrorist operations in North Africa warned Thursday that the Benghazi debacle will hurt the State Department's ability to recruit diplomats for dangerous duty if they fear Washington will ignore their concerns about security.
The world's most famous prehistoric art is in caverns in Europe, but the most recently discovered ancient cave paintings are in a country no other nation recognizes in a region of Africa associated mostly with terrorism, pirates and famine.
The influence of radical Islam is on the rise around the world — and in the United States.
Nearly taken for granted by the West, education is a noble struggle in Somalia, requiring generous contributions from citizens and foreign donors to help ensure a future of stability and prosperity for Somali children.
President Obama's plan to renew sanctions against Somalia to weaken Islamist militants would wrack the war-torn country's economy just as an elected government is restoring stability for the first time in 22 years and as thousands of refugees are returning to their homeland.
Bin Laden, the al Qaeda terrorist leader, issued his "fatwa" only seven months before the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed on Aug. 7, 1998. The United States could have increased our security measures everywhere, yet Washington remained unprepared to avoid the disastrous destruction of the World Trade Center in New York on Sept. 11, 2001.
Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb infiltrated Mali's northern frontier in 2003, after a 10-year civil war to overthrow the Algerian government. This desert region has become a safe haven for numerous Islamists linked to al Qaeda.
Emergency workers forced to retreat from a tsunami-stricken Japanese nuclear power plant when radiation levels soared prepared to return Wednesday night after emissions dropped to safer levels.
New Zealand's prime minister warned Monday that the country's economic recovery will be hurt by the weekend's powerful 7.1-magnitude earthquake, which smashed buildings and wrecked roads and rail lines in Christchurch.
"Everyone knew in real time what was transpiring," Mr. Price said.

2013 Annual Conference
3rd-5th September
The 52nd Annual Conference and Annual General Meeting of the Association will be held at Edinburgh University, one of the leading Universities in Scotland ranking 16th in the University league tables.
The University was officially established by a Royal Charter granted by James VI in 1582 after the explicit petitioning of the Council. The fact that it was funded by the Town Council makes it in many ways the first civic university known.
The Conference will be held in the University's Conference Centre, which is integral with the conference accomodation. Edinburgh is a delightful and vibrant city, with many tourist attractions and we look forward to welcoming the membership to Scotland's Capital City.
Put the dates in your diary, we look forward to seeing you in Edinburgh...3rd - 5th September 2013

Joseph W. McQuaid: City should honor all fallen officers
Manchester aldermen who voted Tuesday night to honor one fallen police officer by naming the new station for him do a dishonor to another fallen police officer. They can do better.
One way, as Alderman Joe Kelley Levasseur suggested, would be to name the new station for Michael Briggs and Ralph Miller. A better way would be to come up with a suitable memorial within the new building that would honor all police officers who lose their lives in public service.
The current Ralph Miller Public Safety Center is not named for some ancient memory. Officer Miller was shot down in 1976. His murderer is still very much alive and still in prison. The Miller family, including his widow, children, and parents, still live here.
Police Chief David Mara said the Briggs family, which lost their loved one in 2006, should get to see the same honor bestowed on him as was bestowed on Miller.
That is a fine sentiment. But what happens, God forbid, if in 20 years another officer is killed?
Will the Briggs family be shunted aside? Will they feel then as the Miller family and friends must feel now?
We understand that emotions are still raw for those who served with Officer Briggs. His killer faces the death penalty. Appeals may linger for years. But emotions are also still very much alive for those connected with Officer Miller. And what of the sacrifice of Officers McAllister and Moher, who died in an earlier era?
This need not be an either/or choice.
The aldermen would do themselves and the city proud by taking a new vote to suitably honor all officers who have given their lives to serve and protect their city.
