Tania Vázquez Vargas
Ashoka Fellow
Fellow Since 2000
ECOVIR-Empresa Comunal Via Rancho
This description of Tania Vázquez Vargas's work was prepared when Tania Vázquez Vargas was elected to the Ashoka Fellowship in 2000.
Tania Vázquez has created a business enterprise in which rural communities produce and market dehydrated fruits. The enterprise is organized to increase local income and improve nutrition, gender equity, and community participation.
The New Idea
Tania works with a team of technical advisors to manage a corporation of farmers, producing high quality, nutritious, natural dehydrated fruits. By building an association of poor organic farmers into a socially conscious business, she helps increase income while responding to ecologically unsound practices and gender inequality. Through technical assistance, training, and strategic planning, Bolivian farmers produce a better quality and more marketable product, yielding greater income and greater sustainability. Tania fosters a sense of cooperation and solidarity among the farmers with whom she works, effecting price stability, financial security, social responsibility, and self-reliance toward prosperity and corporate integrity in the formerly impractical industry of fruit production.
The Problem
Because of agrarian reform, Bolivian land, particularly in the Valle Alto region of Cochabamba, has been subject to excessive partitioning, causing a decline in the quantity of fruit production and much lower incomes for farmers. As a result, development organizations and the government have turned to chemical fertilizers and genetically enhanced seeds, which are dangerous to both producers' and consumers' health. Land degrading activities and non-demand driven production prevent sustainability in agriculture and drive down the value of products in the market. Moreover, neither the program directors nor the farmers claim responsibility for management of projects or maintenance of standards. The situation is even graver for women producers, whose work provides them only half of what their male counterparts earn. In Bolivia, many companies are also reluctant to hire women because of prejudices against pregnancy or a perceived lack of physical strength. Moreover, many men have left their families to work in more economically sound regions of the country, leaving their wives as the sole providers for their children. Additionally, school children in Bolivia's highlands lack access to nutritious fresh fruits and vegetables. Although schools are required to provide breakfasts to students, this obligation has generally been fulfilled with either cheap or donated food products, which nearly always lack nutritional value and become boring to students who eat the same food every day. The teachers who manage these programs do not have the background in nutrition to properly respond to the children's needs.
The Strategy
Tania's organization, Ecología Vía Rancho (ECOVIR), fosters a fair trade partnership between technical specialists from the citizen sector and agricultural producers, by which all parties share equally in management and profit. While the agro-producers oversee crop production and ensure a consistent provision of high-quality primary materials, the technicians supervise marketing, development, and evaluation. The key, however, is interaction between the two sides, facilitating greater investment in the whole business cycle and more accountability for the product. In addition to establishing a practical model for team-oriented management and business development, Tania strictly enforces a policy of gender equity within the corporation by which all contributors earn equal amounts of money and take on equal levels of priority. A new emphasis on market values led ECOVIR to launch a line of organic dehydrated fruits, based on a demand for nutritious foods in Bolivia's highlands and a growing market for export. The farmers and technical specialists collaborate to ensure sustainability of the agriculture and business sides of the process, involving critical investment in research, cultivation, packaging, marketing, management, and administration. The dried snacks industry, while previously untested in this region, meets all values standards of ecological safety, market demand, growth entrepreneurship, and social responsibility. ECOVIR's product development caters to both the new international market for tropical fruit and organic products the implicit market demand for high quality, locally produced, inexpensive health foods accessible in great quantity. Drawing on its immediate success in local distribution through Cochabamba supermarkets, Tania worked with the technical specialists and producers to design a broader strategy to market their dehydrated fruit products to international buyers and public investors. She partnered with international associations of fruit producers to promote ECOVIR's fair trade goods abroad and has already been received by consumers in Europe and the rest of the Americas. She also contracted with Cochabamba's departmental (state) government to provide fruit for the area's public school breakfast program, a tremendously profitable endeavor with long-term security. Since 1998, ECOVIR has fed eight thousand children per year, finally providing nutritious foods to students who previously lacked fresh fruit in their diets. Tania's approach is not only novel in the nutritional content of the product, but ECOVIR also provides logistical support for the school breakfast program, involving parents, teachers, and school authorities in public health planning and training.
The Person
Since her early childhood, Tania has spent a significant amount of time in the countryside with her family, where she learned to speak Quechua and observed the mechanisms used by farmers to conserve products during the dry season. She also took note of the strategy of community cooperation and the resulting security provided to the community members, which she now sees as applicable to the current situation of Bolivia's farmers and their families. She also noticed the disappearance of traditional methods such as seed selection as a result of scarce resources and information. Later, through her university studies in biochemistry, her work with self-management programs for farmers, and through her education studies, Tania reaffirmed her commitment to equitable division of and compensation for labor. Tania worked on the Solar Energy Development Project at the Universidad Mayor de San Simón, where she developed solar dehydrators for application in rural areas to conserve post-harvest crops. Tania joined several of her classmates in the application of this process to generate revenue for farmers, not just preserve their food for personal consumption, as had previously been the norm, through the organization, Energética.Through a farmer-business management project, Energética established a banana and kudzu flour processing plant in the Chapare region of Bolivia, which utilized solar technology. The plant closed, however, due to poor management. The work was disproportionate and irregular, often with no workers during harvest time and twice as many as necessary at other times. Observing which practices clearly did not work, Tania incorporated both the individual and the collective into a viable business through her organization, ECOVIR.

Maybe it was love at first sight with Amitabh: Jaya
Recounting her first meeting with Big B, veteran actress Jaya Bachchan said: "I first saw Amitji in an institute. I saw him, I liked him and I told my friends that you know he has got a personality. And they said what...he looks like a stick!"entertainment Updated: Jan 09, 2009 01:23 IST
It might have been love at first sight with Amitabh, said veteran actress Jaya Bachchan when asked if she fell in love with the megastar instantly.
In conversation with fashion designer duo Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla on their TV chat show "The First Ladies with Abu Sandeep", to be aired on NDTV Good Times, Jaya said "Maybe" when asked whether love happened instantly.
Recounting her first meeting with Big B, the 60-year-old actress said: "I first saw Amitji in an institute. I saw him, I liked him and I told my friends that you know he has got a personality. And they said what...he looks like a stick!"
"He was very thin and his face was full of his eyes. I remember I fought with my friends and said he is different."
Jaya, who has been married to the actor for 35 years now, also narrated how the two had to tie the nuptial knot under hurried circumstances.
"We all, a group of friends, had decided that if Zanjeer did well, we'll all go for a holiday to London. And it did well. But Amitji's parents objected and said that you can't go for a holiday with a girl without being married to her."
"Of course, he had told his parents that this is the girl that he wanted to marry. So, he said what's the big deal, we'll get married. We just decided. I was shooting in Calcutta and he called me and said that this is what happened. I said it's okay with me. But you will have to ask my parents. He said okay I'll call them and call you back. He spoke to my parents and my parents were like 'ahem hmm mm ok'," she said.
The actress, who starred in films Chupke Chupke, Guddi, Bawarchi, Silsila, Abhimaan, Mili, Khamoshi, Kabhie Khushi Kabhie Gham, Fiza and Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna apart from several other hits, says a lot changed when she had to shift in with her in-laws after her marriage.
"There is a difference between a daughter and a daughter-in-law. I don't know why but you feel you don't need to respect your parents. You take your parents for granted. With your in-laws, you can't do that and later on things change. Today, I feel more of a Bachchan than a Bhaduri (her maiden name)," she said.
In the celebrity question round of the show, Maharani Padmini Devi of Jaipur asked Jaya about which role does she like the most - daughter, actress, wife, mother or grand mother?
To this, the actress, who is also a prominent member of Parliament promptly replied: "Grandmother! It's of course grandmother. No responsibility."
The entire episode of "The First Ladies with Abu Sandeep" would be on air at 10 pm on Saturday.

FIFA brings end to Pakistan suspension for court interference
ZURICH -- FIFA has lifted the Pakistan football federation's suspension, imposed in October because of outside interference by a court.
Rules imposed by world football's governing body and its members prohibit outside influence on their independence.
FIFA said Pakistan's federation had this month "successfully taken back control" of its offices and accounts from a court-appointed administrator.
The country's men's national team has not played since 2015, according to FIFA's website, and is ranked...

Members present:
Mr Jimmy Hood, in the Chair
MR BOB AINSWORTH, a Member of the House, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Anti-Drugs, Co-ordination and Organised Crime), MS FENELLA TAYLER, Extradition Bill Team, and MS LESLEY PALLETT, Head of the European and International Unit, Home Office, examined.
(Mr Ainsworth) Thank you, Chairman, for attempting to accommodate me. We had no idea how long your proceedings would take having never appeared in front of you before and I thank you for the opportunity of coming and trying to explain the current situation with regard to the arrest warrant. With regard to your question on Article 1, the procedures are to be between judicial authority and judicial authority with only assistance in terms of administrative assistance from any central authority and, as you quite rightly say, it is now spelt out in Article 1 that it is to be a court decision to be taken. I know there were some initial concerns raised by Members I think of both Houses that potentially these warrants could be issued by police authorities, but that is not the case. Clearly it must be a judicial authority and we anticipate the same judicial authorities that are currently applying for extradition within the European Union will be using the powers of the European arrest warrant and it will be a court decision taken, judicial authority to judicial authority. In England and Wales the judicial authority will be the Bowe Street Magistrates' Court as it is currently.
Mr David
(Mr Ainsworth) Well, the judicial authority will be designated by the issuing State, but it will have to be that, a judicial authority and a court, so it will not be for the British authorities to say what is and is not a court in another European State, but it will not be possible for authorities that clearly are not courts, that are not judicial authorities to issue requests for European arrest warrants as they will not be recognised.
(Mr Ainsworth) Well, the whole thing will need to be spelt out within the Bill. I think that it is now clear within the Framework Document where you will see in later Articles that it says that the requirement is between the judicial authority in the issuing State to the judicial authority in the executing State and quite rightly Article 1 says that the European arrest warrant shall be a court decision. I am not certain there is any further clarification and I am happy to try and understand concerns that there may be remaining, but it appears to me that it is very clear that this cannot be a police authority, but it must be a court, a judicial authority.
Mr Cash
(Mr Ainsworth) Mr Cash, I would be very surprised if I were able to satisfy you on all of these issues. I am not trying to be in any way provocative in saying that, sincerely I would be very surprised. Throughout the document, in every Article you turn to, you will see that the "judicial authority" is referred to in the executing state and in the issuing state. We already have extradition arrangements with all European countries and we look at extradition in the individual cases with those authorities. Yes, there are different legal systems that apply in different parts of the European Union, but there are clear judicial authorities who apply for extradition and who will be the authorities that have the power to apply for a European arrest warrant. Those judicial authorities will be reported under the Framework Agreement, they are the judicial authorities that will have that power and it is clearly stated in the Framework Document that it will be a court decision. You will need to spell out what your fear is.
Mr Cash: No, I am afraid that will not be the way round, Minister.
(Mr Ainsworth) As I say, I think it is pretty clear that we are talking about judicial authorities and only judicial authorities will be able to apply. We are not talking about accession states by the way, we are only talking about Members of the European Union. Yes, at some time in the future those accession states will potentially become full members and they will have to comply with all the provisions of the ECHR and then they will be accepted into these arrangements and recognised as such.
Mr Cash
(Mr Ainsworth) Can I try to satisfy you in saying that I do not think there is any doubt that the British judicial authority, for example, Bow Street Magistrates' Court in the case of England and Wales, will not only not have the ability but will certainly not execute a European arrest warrant that comes from anything other than a judicial authority in another European state.
(Mr Ainsworth) I could provide you with a list of all the different authorities who have looked at extradition arrangements over many years.
Mr Cash: We know what the arrangements are here in the UK.
(Mr Ainsworth) The principle, Chairman, which we are accepting - and if members demur
from that principle then there is not going to be any way of satisfying them - is that the countries with whom we are about to enter this arrangement have all signed up to the ECHR, they are all our European Union partners, and there are huge benefits that can flow from mutual recognition of their systems, and there is not the necessity for ourselves to vet every aspect of those partners' procedures. If there are members who, as I say, demur from that, they are not going to be happy with this direction, but that is the position of the Government.
Mr Connarty
(Mr Ainsworth) We are working with and trying to assist all of the accession states to come up to the kind of standards that are going to be required of them to have access to the Union and access to the kind of facilities that we are bringing in here. So we would not accept that there are going to be countries that will continue to have lower standards of justice than that required by the ECHR and which are normal within the European Union and yet have access to the use of the European arrest warrants.
(Mr Ainsworth) I am not sure about the situation as regards military courts.
Mr Connarty: I think that should be clarified in the Bill.
Mr David
(Mr Ainsworth) I think quite the reverse actually. In the modern age we have a clear choice about where we go with regard to future recognition and judicial co-operation with our European partners. We either stick with the kind of cumbersome, and there is no doubt about it, antiquated system that we have at the present while we recognise that there is increasingly free movement of their nationals within our country and our nationals within their countries and we just accept that it can take years and be a very long process and often a process that thwarts the ability to apply justice where someone has crossed the border, or we go down the road of mutual recognition, or the other alternative is to try to establish some body of European law. I would have thought that it is far more acceptable to our citizens that we go down the road of mutual recognition in order to provide adequate justice in that modern situation, in that modern setting, rather than attempting to invent some kind of European law that applies to all the countries. So I see mutual recognition as an alternative to that which you describe. When we turn to the generic list I understand some of the concerns that arise from the list. The arrest warrants themselves will not be able to be framed in the terms of that list, they will have to be framed as a specific offence in the issuing country. So, therefore, let's say in the area that comes under swindling, no-one will see a European arrest warrant that says "this person is accused of swindling". They will see a European arrest warrant from another country or from this country going abroad which says that "this person is accused of counterfeiting documentation in order to allow them to access somebody else's bank account." It will have to be framed in terms of a specific offence that falls within those terms, and the warrant will only be accepted if it is framed in such a way. If we were to try to identify every single offence rather than have these broader descriptions, then it would be a very long list indeed, and it would be tantamount to trying to encapsulate dual criminality in a massive list that covered every single situation. I do not really know what the choice is and whether we could have a framework list that says only in these areas is dual criminality abolished.
Mr Marshall
(Mr Ainsworth) There is no intention to deceive. It is an arrest warrant. Let us say if we are applying for someone's return from Germany who committed a crime in this country, the offence that is described on the arrest warrant will fall within that area, it will name a specific offence that is relating to a crime with that minimum sentence within that threshold sentence. It will only be valid if it does name a specific offence in British law in order to have that person returned to this country. Those generic terms are there in order to tell people in what category they can frame those requests. The actual arrest warrants that are sent or received will have to name a specific offence that falls within that area.
Tony Cunningham
(Mr Ainsworth) Our procedures, as they apply at the moment, apply to our European partners as well as other countries and are extremely cumbersome and they take many, many years, which is a deterrent for application in the first place. We are not the easiest country from which to get extradition and we have not got an exceptional record in this regard. We often get criticised by other countries for our refusal to extradite people in other countries. We have a difficulty with criminals living in other European countries who are accused of committing crimes here. It is bound to be a far more streamlined situation, it cuts out the involvement of the executive. It cuts out political involvement. It recognises judicial authority and a request for a return of an accused person. That is going to be a much faster procedure and it is going to be far more difficult, I think, for people to, therefore, escape justice by merely crossing a border which is freely and easy crossable in the modern age. That is the whole purpose to the arrangement at the moment. We have situations with extradition requests for European partners currently on-going that have been dragged out for years by constant judicial challenge and delaying tactics, and that cannot be in the interest of justice.
Mr Connarty
(Mrs Tayler) This particular paragraph in this article did go through numerous redrafts because it is an extremely complex and an extremely difficult concept to frame. Particular wording here was, indeed, supported by the United Kingdom.
(Mrs Tayler) The reason it is framed in a rather complicated manner is it is trying to do two things, it is trying to prevent an injustice on the one hand but capture the situation where extradition would be right. An example of preventing an injustice is where a United Kingdom citizen, somebody who is in the United Kingdom, is carrying out something in the United Kingdom which is legal here but in another country, another member has extra-territorial jurisdiction, where it is an offence in that country and they want to extradite the return of a person from the United Kingdom to that country. This will prevent that, it is clearly a case of an injustice. The other limb of that is not to prevent extradition where it would be right to extradite the person where the country has extra-territorial competence.
Mr Connarty: I look forward to seeing the draft Bill.
Mr Cash
(Mr Ainsworth) Your description of the facts do not fit the facts as I see them at all. We announced the intention to modernise our extradition arrangements going back some long time. We issued a consultation document back in March of last year. That consultation document spelt out our intention to streamline our extradition arrangements, not only with our European partners but with other states. Yes, of course, the events of September 11 gave some focus and some impetus to get this agreed and I think that if there are any members of the House trying to suggest that effective extradition is not relevant to action against international terrorism that is a very strange position, indeed, that is not the origin of these proposals. Why on earth should it be limited to simply terrorism, the intention was there? It is a public document and if there are any members who want to check that out it was made public in March. The responses to the consultation were published and placed in the library and are available on the Home Office website. It is not correct to say that the origin of these proposals was 11 September.
(Mrs Tayler) We said that we have given commitments to committees of the House in response to the scrutiny process that we are looking at. We will address those issues of conscience and come back to the House in the framework legislation. This is a Framework Document. It does not dictate in every detail how we frame the legislation that we bring forward to the House. Yes, the legislation must comply with the Framework Document, but there is no requirement on us to go further than that, and the terms of the legislation will be subject to scrutiny in the normal way, so the issues that the honourable gentleman raises are not being forced on us by the European Union, they will be decisions that will be taken by this House when we come to deal with the detail of the legislation that we bring forward.
Miss McIntosh
(Mr Ainsworth) We are expecting them to report back in February but there is no definite time.
(Mr Ainsworth) Have I taken the opportunity to talk to members personally?
(Mr Ainsworth) No, I have not, not yet.
(Mr Ainsworth) Is the honourable Member concerned about it?
(Mr Ainsworth) If there are concerns about the Framework itself, yes, most certainly that should happen. As I say, there is an amount of detail that needs to be settled and we are free to settle it within the national legislation that we plan to bring forward, and that is a matter for the House to do so.
(Mr Ainsworth) There is no requirement in the Framework Document for the British Government to release the dual criminality requirement for anything other than those areas covered in 2(2) and covered by length of sentencing in 2(2). Whether or not we do go further than that is a matter for us, it is a matter we have said we will come back to the House on, and we will reflect upon it before we bring in further legislation. So the only area where we are obliged by the Framework Document and where at the moment we are able to release the dual criminality provisions are those areas that are covered by the list and those areas that are covered by the minimum sentences, nothing else.
(Mr Ainsworth) Can I say to you, Chairman, and to the Committee, that there was no intention to deceive Committee B. The text going into various meetings did have that provision within it, and I was trying to keep the Committee aware of a moving situation, as we are required to do under scrutiny arrangements, and to do our best not to hide the latest situation from the Committee. I attempted to bring the Committee right up-to-date with what the current situation was, and the text going into those meetings required a retrial in those terms. You will see and you will be aware that that wording changed. It would be helpful if I were able to explain to you exactly why that changed but it was a negotiation and I am not able to do so. What I am able to do and what I have done in writing to the Committee is give a very clear indication that it is our intention when bringing forward the legislation to bring it forward in such a way that it makes it very, very clear that where we are talking about a decision taken in absentia, there will be, where it is required, a requirement to guarantee a retrial, and we believe that we are fully able to do that within the wording within the Framework Document. If we did not believe that we would challenge the situation, but that is our intention. We see no reason to backtrack from that and that is a very clear assurance that I can give to the Committee and to the House.
Mr Marshall
(Mr Ainsworth) You can see the new wording that emerged from the latest document. The person who is subject to a European arrest warrant - this is where an in absentia decision has been taken - will have an opportunity to lodge an appeal or opposition in the issuing State and to be present at the judgment. We would have been far more comfortable if it had said clearly and explicitly a retrial. I say again that it is our intention within our legislation to use those words and to put those words in. We see no way that that can ---
(Mr Ainsworth) A retrial. We do not believe that is challengeable within the Framework Document, and so that is a clear commitment we can give the House and that is our intention with regard to the legislation.
Tony Cunningham
(Mr Ainsworth) If we thought it was necessary we would do that.
(Mr Ainsworth) We have not done that and we do not believe that is necessary. We believe we have the ability to bring in legislation within this Framework Document that uses those terms and gives that assurance, and that that is sustainable. If we are given any advice that is not so then we would have to do something else, but that is not the advice that I am given. The advice that I am given is that it is sustainable that we bring in legislation that guarantees a retrial and that is our intention.
Mr Connarty
(Mrs Tayler) That is the position. That is the issue that people are concerned about. We are not concerned about people coming here, are we, we are concerned about the situation where people have been tried in absentia abroad and are potentially sent back without the right of a full retrial.
(Mr Ainsworth) Let me be clear about that, that was the wording of the documentation going into the last negotiation.
(Mr Ainsworth) As I said, there was no intention on my part to deceive anybody. I was trying to reassure people about the direction in which the negotiations were moving. I was aware that the document was written in that way. I was aware that a meeting was about to start in Brussels. I made the Committee aware, or I attempted to make the Committee aware, that that was the wording contained within that documentation. By the end of that negotiation, this was not an imposition of the Belgium Presidency, the wording had changed. I immediately wrote to the Committee to make them aware that the wording had changed and to give them the assurance that I am now giving to this Committee that it is our intention to frame our legislation in that way. If the words I used were misleading I can only apologise for that, I was attempting in a very fast moving situation, where there were continued discussions, where documentation was being thrown, we were trying to get them to scrutiny committees as quickly as possible so that they can follow the drift of those negotiations. I was trying to keep them as up-to-date as possible.
(Mr Ainsworth) Chairman, I have no problem with you trying to assist me at all, if you want to do that you will get no objection from me. I was asked to go in front of the Scrutiny Committee and I was happy to do so. We were going into a meeting at the time and they were concerned about the documentation that had actually been laid and was therefore scrutiny. The wording in the documentation left a bit to be desired. I was aware that there was new documentation, there was a new meeting taking place and in that documentation it did say that there would be a guarantee of a retrial. I made the Committee aware of that. By the time those negotiations finished, which was only a day or so later, that had changed. I wrote to the Committee straightaway to tell them, "I am sorry, I have effectively misled you", because this was the wording that came out of that Committee. If we are going to have effective scrutiny and if you want me to make documentation available to you quickly and repeatedly those kind of issues are going to arise. I hope you would not want the Home Office to say, "we will let you see it at the end of this process", you would hope we would be open as the process is on-going and try to keep you as up-to-date as we have now. Effectively we gave a reassurance that was not worth anything at the end of the day in that arena. We are now making certain that we are making it clear to the Committee what our intentions are, and are our intentions are to use those words.
Mr Connarty
(Mr Ainsworth) I accept what my learned friend says. In an ideal world that would be so, we would be very comfortable with that going in. Members will be aware that before that meeting there was not agreement across the EU and there was not likely to be agreement across the EU. There was negotiation and numerous things changed. As I tried to say to the Committee, I cannot pin down exactly why that particular wording changed. If we thought that there was a chance of getting agreement, and this needs to be unanimous across the board, with that wording in we would be going back and doing exactly what you are suggesting and trying to achieve exactly that. If we were not comfortable with our ability to be able to enshrine those words in our own legislation we would be doing what was suggested over here, and that is making a statement. We are comfortable with our ability to be able to do that. With regard to our own citizens we are able to give that reassurance. We are confident we are able to give that reassurance. We do not think there is anything to be gained by attempting to reopen the issue.
Mr Connarty: That is a very sad reply.
(Mr Ainsworth) It is my understanding that we are able to do that. We are able to do that within the Framework Document and we intend to do that. If I have doubt about that I would tell the Committee whether I have doubt about that, but I do not.
Mr Cash
(Mr Ainsworth) I think you are over-dramatising it when you say that I was put in an impossible position. I was responding to questions of scrutiny, I was attempting to keep the Committee as up-to-date as I could, and subsequently the wording was changed and I told the Committee of the change and made them aware of it. I can only tell you that it is not normal for Ministers to publish advice. I can only say to you that I have satisfied myself that our intention in the way in which we intend to bring this Framework into being in this particular area of decisions in absentia, and the right of a retrial in those circumstances, is not challengeable in the actual legislation itself, and I have satisfied myself that that is not so, and that there is no ability to overturn particular decisions and that that is not going to be a real situation. If I were worried about that, we would be looking to change the words, but that is our intention - to make it very clear, enshrined in British legislation that where a sentence has been given in absentia, the person will have a guaranteed retrial if sent back to the issuing state, and I see no way that is going to be overturned.
Mr Hendrick
(Mr Ainsworth) I would like to be able to but, as I say, there were lots of changes to the wording in order to get agreement across the 15 countries and this was one of them. If I were able to clarify the position for the Committee as to exactly why these words were chosen against those which we were far more comfortable with, I would be happy to clarify the position, but we did have the agreement of 14 countries going in and we had the agreement of 15 countries coming out. There have been substantial changes in different areas and it is not possible for me to be able to say to you exactly why that was changed. The only guarantee that I can give to you is if we thought we could get it reinstituted that would be something we would be looking at, but we do not, so I would not support the point that Mr Connarty was making as to why are we not going back and trying to get this for all of our European citizens across the piece. We do not think that that is realistic. This was the end result of the negotiations that was reached in unanimity, but we do feel we are able to give a guarantee with regard to our own citizens in these circumstances.
Chairman: Minister, thank you very much for coming along this morning. It has been very interesting and we will now thank you and allow you to get on to your next meeting.

Vx500 Processors Combine the Flexibility to Support Different WAN Access Technologies With the Performance of Multiple Fusiv® Acceleration Processors to Optimize Cloud Access, Home LAN QoS Management, and Secure Media Distribution
Vx500 Processors Combine the Flexibility to Support Different WAN Access Technologies With the Performance of Multiple Fusiv® Acceleration Processors to Optimize Cloud Access, Home LAN QoS Management, and Secure Media Distribution
LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - Jan 6, 2014) - CES 2014 -- Ikanos Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: IKAN), a leading provider of advanced broadband semiconductor and software products for the digital home, today introduced the Fusiv® Vx500 suite of high-performance gateway processors, optimized to meet carrier requirements for next-generation smart residential gateways. The Vx58x vectoring xDSL gateway processors set a new performance bar, reaching aggregate (combined upstream and downstream) data rates of up to 400Mbps with VDSL2 bonding, while providing 11GHz of offload processing for cloud access, dual-band, dual-concurrent WiFi acceleration (AC1750), LAN management and QoS, and secure content processing and distribution. In addition, the processors accelerate the company's industry-leading diagnostics and monitoring software suite, inSIGHT™ Broadband eXperience Manager (BXM), ensuring quick resolution of wiring impairments and noise interference.
The Vx57x multi-mode gateway processors combine the same high-performance Fusiv® architecture with the flexibility to support any WAN access technology. This enables equipment manufacturers to leverage a common hardware and software platform to support different access technologies, such as fiber, LTE (up to Category 7), Ethernet, and hybrid fiber-copper, including G.fast. In addition to the Fusiv® offload engines, the architecture is designed with a high-performance SMP dual-core CPU subsystem, packing up to 1.2GHz of processing power per core for carrier and OEM customization and differentiation.
Furthermore, the commonality of the underlying Fusiv® architecture and core DSL technology with Ikanos' existing Vx18x/Vx17x processor family facilitates customer time-to-market. This is made possible through the complete re-use of existing software, which has already been tested and successfully deployed on various carrier networks.
"There is a disruption happening inside the home in how consumers generate, interact with, and consume various types of content, and the new generation of residential gateways is emerging as a key enabling component for the service providers in this new paradigm," said Teresa Mastrangelo, principal analyst, Broadbandtrends. "While the tremendous opportunity created by this disruption is attracting many technology and equipment suppliers, Ikanos seems to be well positioned for this transition, given its existing gateway footprint, DSL performance leadership, unique differentiators, such as inSIGHT™, and its common architecture approach to multi-access gateways."
"Ikanos is committed to remaining one of the world's top suppliers of high-performance gateway processors," said Omid Tahernia, president and CEO of Ikanos. "The Vx58x family extends our xDSL gateway performance leadership for access over hybrid fiber-copper networks, enabling carriers to deliver multiple services with fiber-like performance over their existing copper infrastructure. With the introduction of the Vx57x multi-mode gateway processor family, we are extending the benefits of our advanced Fusiv® acceleration processor architecture to non-DSL access networks. This enables equipment manufacturers to build a common platform for addressing multiple service provider opportunities, whether the access is through FTTN with VDSL2, FTTdp with G.fast, FTTH, LTE, Ethernet, or cable."
Key Features
Further differentiating the Fusiv® Vx58x processors from others in the market is a powerful software-based on-chip diagnostics product called inSIGHT™ BXM. First introduced in Ikanos' Fusiv® Vx185 family of gateway processors, inSIGHT™ is the industry's first in-home broadband diagnostic and monitoring solution integrated into a DSL gateway processor. inSIGHT™ leverages the advanced diagnostic features of the chipset, including temperature and voltage sensors, along with Ikanos' patent-pending algorithms, to enable carriers to proactively identify the cause of common wiring faults and noise interference, while enabling consumers to resolve basic problems locally. For service providers, inSIGHT™ lowers operational costs by eliminating many "truck rolls," speeding problem resolution, slashing downtime, and reducing churn by improving the subscriber's quality of experience.
The Fusiv® Vx500 processor family is sampling in the first quarter of 2014, with production expected in the second quarter.

That's a great line. Furthermore, the red shirts simply cannot cut a break. Spock, cooler than vampires and red shirt-slayer.
Honestly, how I really wish Spock was a Twilight-killer.
There is that Buffy episode in which Faith fights a Vulcan - they should be on the same side, clearly.
Gosh... What a cast on that one. Good one. I love Nathan Fillion and swear by firefly. I must confess that I am Buffy challenged and will one day rectify that. It maybe one of the few vampire series I would enjoy. I do like true blood. Thanks for the history check ; D

Johnny Carson Gossip From 40 Years Ago Somehow News
Okay, world.
Over 40 years ago, a notorious womanizer was cuckolded. For some reason, this is big news today! Johnny Carson's one-time lawyer and friend Henry Bushkin has a new book out called Johnny Carson, an account of his time with the late late-night legend. Bushkin was Carson's lawyer for many years but was "banished from the kingdom" in the late eighties, according to a People article from 1991. Still, Bushkin moved forward with this book, an excerpt of which is in this week's EW.
The selected section describes a night when Carson, Bushkin, and three seemingly unsavory associates broke into an apartment rented by Carson's then-wife Joanne. (She was Carson's second of four wives.) Bushkin writes,
Johnny had substantial evidence that Joanne had secretly leased an apartment within blocks of their UN Plaza home, which she used for clandestine rendezvous with her lover. "Well, I'll be happy to file for divorce, if you want…" "No, I don't want you to file for divorce," he interrupted. "I want you to go with Arthur and me and some other guys when we break into the apartment to find evidence to prove the bitch is cheating on me."
[Golf swing.]
They get into the apartment no problem and then discover artifacts that suggest Joanne has been having an affair with former New York Giant Frank Gifford.
Crushed by the overwhelming amount of evidence, Carson leaned against the living room wall and began to weep. It was a painfully uncomfortable moment. Arthur busied himself taking photos of the premises, while the rest of us tried to look away and give Johnny his privacy. It was, however, a small space, and I couldn't always keep my eyes away. During one of those glances, I could see that Carson's raincoat had fallen open. I was shocked to see that Johnny was carrying a .38 revolver in a holster on his hip.
Later, Carson told Bushkin, "I can't quit smoking and I get drunk every night and I chase all the pussy I can get. I'm shitty in the marriage department. Make sure you understand this." Carson also insisted that Bushkin never tell anyone what they discussed, and Bushkin vowed that he wouldn't — an exchange that is recounted in his memoir.
The Gifford story first surfaced in Bushkin's book proposal way in 2010. At that time, Joanne Carson disputed Bushkin's account, saying "Frank Gifford and I had a very special friendship when I was about 21 and single … but it wasn't while I was married to Johnny." But that's not as trashy a story, so that can't be on the cover of the New York Post.

The deadly wounds inflicted on eight Britons killed in the Tunisia terror attack were confirmed today as inquests were opened into their deaths.
West London Coroner's Court heard details of the first British victims to be repatriated back to the UK following the beach massacre a week ago.
Three of the eight victims died from gunshot wounds to the head, while many had to be identified by their dental records, the hearings were told.
Joel Richards, 19, & his grandfather Charles Patrick Evans, 78, were both shot in the head, while Joel's uncle, Adrian Evans, 49, died in the attack from gunshot wounds to the neck & "trunk".
Joel, a University of Worcester student & talented young football referee, is believed to be the youngest of the British victims killed by gunman Seifeddine Rezgui when he opened fire in the resort of Sousse.
Joel's 16-year-old brother Owen survived the attack last Friday, in which 38 holidaymakers including 30 Britons were killed.
Stephen Mellor, 59, from Bodmin, Cornwall, died from gunshot wounds to the chest & abdomen as he shielded his wife Cheryl during the attack.
Fashion blogger Carly Lovett, 24, from Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, who was on holiday her fiancé Liam, died from a gunshot wound to the chest.
Denis Thwaites, 70, a former Birmingham City football player, died from a gunshot wound to the chest, while his wife Elaine, 69, was killed by gunshot wounds to the chest & pelvis.
John Stollery, 58, a social worker from Nottinghamshire, who was on holiday with his wife Cheryl & son, was killed by a gunshot wound to the head.
Detective Sergeant David Batt of the Counter Terrorism Command told the hearing the attack happened at around 11.15 am last Friday & was believed to have lasted 30 minutes.
"Tourists were indiscriminately targeted by the gunman," he said. "The gunman was shot by security services."
The bodies of the eight victims were moved to the central mortuary in Tunis after they were killed, Mr Batt told the inquest.
"Senior UK police identification managers have assisted in Tunisia & in the UK to oversee the identification process," he added.
Mr Batt said 275 witness accounts had been taken by police, while more than 1,200 potential witnesses had returned to the UK. "Accounts are being taken from those who are deemed significant," he said.
There was a heavy police presence near the court today, while a number of officers were guarding a large tent close to the building. Floral tributes were moreover left nearby.
Chinyere Inyama, senior coroner for West London, confirmed the victims' bodies will be released to their families as he adjourned the inquest to a date to be fixed.
The coroner said the inquests had been suspended pending the outcome of investigations by British & Tunisian police.
Further inquests into deaths of the other 22 British victims are expected to open over the weekend.

Children's Commissioner Sir Al Aynsley-Green has said the detention of immigrant children is wrong. The report is the latest in a series critical of the current process.
Jill Rutter works for a charity supporting refugees and migrants and is an associate fellow of the Institute for Public Policy Research; she is writing in a personal capacity
Yesterday Sir Al Aynsley-Green, Children's Commissioner for England, published a follow up report on conditions faced by children held at the Yarl's Wood Immigration Removal Centre in Bedfordshire. The report is the latest in a series critical of the current process.
Every year about 2,000 children are held in detention centres such as Yarl's Wood, most of whom are held for periods of less than seven days. Aynsley-Green's report acknowledges improvements to the physical environment at Yarl's Wood, but argues that the detention of children subject to immigration control is wrong. His report is the latest in a long line of publications that are critical of the detention of children subject to immigration control, most recently a policy statement from the Royal Colleges of Paediatrics and Child Health, General Practitioners and Psychiatrists. Another recent report from Save the Children suggests frequent police station reporting and graduated systems of community supervision as alternatives to detaining asylum-seeking families.
Aynsley-Green's report provokes many questions. Why are children being detained? Is an end to the detention of children a realistic call? Are there alternatives to detention for families who face removal from the UK? How can we safely return children who have exhausted their rights to stay in the UK? Crucially, are those who criticise the use of administrative detention for children focussing on the right issues?
Home Office statistics show that 315 children were held in immigration detention in the third quarter of 2009, of whom 63 per cent were asylum-seekers, with the remainder households who had overstayed their visas. The Government argues that it only detains children as a last resort, prior to that family's removal from the UK. The statistics show otherwise – just 48 per cent of children held in detention ended up being removed from the UK in the third quarter of 2009. The remainder were released within the UK, often because a new solicitor had made successful representations for these families, or submitted new evidence to back up an asylum claim.
This startling statistics throw light on one of the major reasons that children are being held in detention. Poor quality legal advice, in some cases no legal advice, result in badly prepared asylum applications being sent to the UK Border Agency. These asylum applications may not disclose the full facts behind flight to the UK. Additionally, the quality of asylum decisions made by the UK Border Agency often leaves much to be desired: research reports and whistleblowers talking about a culture of disbelief held by immigration officers and the evidence submitted by asylum-seekers and expert witnesses dismissed. All this means that a good solicitor can often challenge an asylum decision and that family can be released from detention.
Ensuring early access to quality legal advice would certainly reduce the numbers of asylum-seeking families held in detention. Campaigners for refugees argue that asylum-seekers should be referred to competent legal advisers at the point when they request asylum. An asylum application should include witness statements and corroborative evidence, rather than be based solely on an oral interview. Solicitors should be reimbursed to provide this initial support in a manner that covers their expenditure. While all this would cost money, it would also reduce costs to the public purse, through a reduction in expensive asylum appeals and the need for detention places.
But introducing early access to legal advice is only part of the story. We also need to improve the quality of asylum decisions in the UK. This too, would reduce the numbers of families held in detention then released again. Our present asylum system is adversarial – the asylum-seeker is pitted against the UK Border Agency. It is also prone to politicisation – with governments exerting pressure to reduce asylum numbers and reject asylum applicants. Many commentators, including Iain Duncan's Smith Centre for Social Justice, now argue that we need an asylum application system that is inquisitorial and independent of government, perhaps mirroring Canada's asylum determination system. Here asylum-seekers lodge written evidence with the independent Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB), explaining the reason for seeking refugee in Canada. The asylum-seeker then attends an oral hearing that further explores the reasons for seeking asylum in an non-adversarial manner. The IRB also has access to a high quality information base that can be used to check the credibility of an asylum case. Better quality initial decisions reduce appeals and the need for last-minute interventions by solicitors when a family is in detention. In Canada less then 1 per cent of initial decisions were over-turned on appeal in 2007. In the UK, 89 per cent of negative decisions were appealed in the same year and 23 per cent of appeals resulted in initial decisions being over-turned.
While improvements to the asylum determination system would reduce asylum-seeking families held in immigration detention, we must not forget that children who are not asylum-seeker are also detained. They are mostly from families that have overstayed their visas, who are effectively irregular migrants. Unless we support a policy of open borders, return to their home is the only policy position we can advocate and detention prior to return is probably a necessary evil. But among those who support migrants' rights there has been very little consideration about what might constitute a just return policy that does not cause undue stress to children.
We need to think if there are any alternatives to detention for irregular migrant families – a group who may be more likely than asylum-seekers to abscond. We need to consider whether we should limit the detention of families to a maximum period. We need to put more resources into voluntary return and re-integration. Policy makers must also understand the pressures that cause some families to live as irregular migrants and the factors that stop them considering return. And we need to ensure that our foreign policy interventions tackle the root causes of irregular migration – lack of economic opportunities, instability and a lack of a welfare safety net.
Rather than focus solely on conditions facing children held in detention centres, we need to look at broader and more difficult issues. We need to examine the asylum-determination system, what constitutes a just return policy and how we respond to irregular migration. Unless we confront these issues, we are going to see many more reports about the detention of children in Yarl's Wood.Like this article?

Physicians for Human RightsThrough evidence, change is possible.
PHR in Colombia: Supporting Justice and Human Rights through Forensics
In August, International Forensic Program (IFP) Director Stefan Schmitt and two of the program's expert consultants, Dr. Robert C. Bux and Attorney Nery Osorio, traveled to Bogota, Colombia as part of their ongoing project with local partner organization EQUITAS to support the independent forensic investigation of cases of forced disappearance and extrajudicial executions.
First, the team from PHR met with attorneys for families of "false positive" victims allegedly executed by the Colombian Military. "False positives" are civilian victims who have been falsely identified by military forces as belonging either to the active guerrilla movement or other illegal armed groups, allowing the military to inflate the number of enemies they killed. Some estimate that thousands of civilians may have been killed for this purpose.
Forensic experts working with PHR's IFP conducted autopsies and reviewed forensic reports by the Colombian authorities in several of these "false positive" cases. As Colombia is in the process of adopting an adversarial court system—wherein an impartial judge hears arguments from opposing sides in a dispute during trial—the autopsies and meetings were held in preparation for upcoming trials of "false positive" cases. This is a monumental step forward for a country that has long relied on an inquisitorial system of justice, where a state-appointed court or judge both investigates and rules on a case, which can often lead to bias and inadequate protection for defendants.
Second, PHR held a workshop with EQUITAS on "The Role of Forensic Experts in Investigations of Violations of Human Rights," specifically to discuss issues surrounding cross examinations of forensic expert witnesses. Among other topics, PHR's forensic experts shared their experiences as expert witnesses in international court systems. Many participants felt that the experiences shared by Dr. Bux and Director Schmitt were invaluable, particularly as forensic practitioners from the United States—a system with a very well-established adversarial court system.
Workshop participants included representatives of various non-governmental human rights organizations and delegates from the National Unit of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law to the Attorney General's Office. A great deal of time was spent discussing legal strategies with the prosecutors from the Attorney General's Office.
"The three days of work were very helpful and we believe the impact is quite favorable [for] EQUITAS and the lawyers' organizations we work with," said Ana Guatame, Co-director of EQUITAS.
The next steps in the PHR/EQUITAS project are to continue to monitor these cases as they move through the Colombian courts, with a distinct possibility of future testimony provided by Dr. Bux and/or Ms. Osorio.

• India
David Hockney -14 - The world famous painter David Hockney has always denied being a Pop artist but is included under this heading because this is how the public perceives him. The most highly publicized British artist since the Second World War, he occupies a position analogous to that which was once accorded to Augustus John - one irony of this being that for John's exuberant heterosexuality Hockney substitutes a publicly acknowledged homosexuality. He was born in Bradford in 1937, the fourth of five children. By the time he won a scholarship to Bradford Grammar School at the age of eleven he had already decided that he wanted to be an artist. He drew for the school magazine and produced posters for the school debating society as a substitute for homework. At sixteen he managed to persuade his parents to let him go to the local art school, and this was followed by two years of working in hospitals as an alternative to National Service, as he had registered as a conscientious objector. After this he went to the Royal College of Art in London to continue his studies, arriving there in 1959. (end 14)

Periodic mass extinctions on Earth, as indicated in the global fossil record, could be linked to a suspected ninth planet, according to research published by a faculty member of the University of Arkansas Department of Mathematical Sciences. [Read more…]

Deep Cleaning Extractors Testing Criteria
To qualify for Seal of Approval, extractors must meet testing requirements for three important elements of performance. Each of these tests is explained in the brief overviews below:
1. Standard Test Practice to Evaluate Cleaning Effectiveness of Carpet Cleaning Equipment Using X-Ray Fluorescence
X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) is used to detect elements of each compound used to soil a control carpet, then to determine their concentrations after a cleaning process. XRF is a technique that detects elements by ionizing the constituent atoms and recording the characteristic energy signatures given off by the elements as they seek to regain greater stability.
Five compounds containing suitable elements for XRF detection were chosen with consideration given to particle size (Fe3O4 at < 1 micron to ZnO at < 74 microns), hardness, solubility, and surface characteristics.
Each compound is first applied to nylon pellets at 6 grams of compound per 1000 grams of pellets (3g/1000 for strontium carbonate). Fifty grams of each of the five compound coated pellets are used to soil a 400 square-inch carpet following procedures found in ASTM-D 6540. Each soiled carpet is vacuumed with a straight suction air tool before it is scanned using XRF to verify the starting concentration of each compound. All XRF scans are with the carpet on a conveyor such that in the 3-minute scan approximately 120 square inches of the 400 square inch carpet are analyzed. The soiled test carpet is then cleaned with the extraction equipment submitted for evaluation. Two wet and two dry passes at 1.0 foot / second are applied unless otherwise specified. Three samples per test are used and the average result for amount removed is reported.
2. Standard Test Practice for Determining Residual Moisture as a result of Water Extraction
This test practice is intended to determine the moisture left in a specific carpet as a result of simulated cleaning with a standard hot water extraction machine. The resultant difference in weight is measured and reported as ounces of residual moisture per square yard.
3. Standard Test Practice for Determining Surface Appearance Change as a result of Wet Extraction
This test practice provides a laboratory test for the measurement of surface appearance change of textile floor covering as a direct result of multiple cleaning passes in a controlled environment.
This test practice is applicable to all residential/commercial cleaning systems. Six cleaning cycles are applied to residential cut pile carpet for residential specific systems. Eleven cleaning cycles are applied to commercial cut pile carpet for commercial specific systems. Texture appearance change is visually rated.

Employer liability insurance is mandatory for all companies with more than one employee, unless it is not a limited company and you employ only family members. Employer liability insurance covers any injuries or illnesses that occur at work due to the fault of the employer. It is still possible for an employee to claim compensation even if the business goes into liquidation or receivership.
Fines can be enforced against companies for each day they go without employer liability insurance. Check out the table below for the latest business insurance deal and compare quotes to find the best employer liability insurance for you.

Knee Surgery Class Action Lawsuit & Settlements
An ACL surgery is the medical operation or procedure that occurs when someone tears the anterior cruciate ligament inside the knee. When the ACL is not in proper form, the knee loses stability and needs to be rebuilt. When a tear occurs in the ACL people may hear or even feel a popping sensation. There can also be swelling of the knee area when a tear happens - many times people will stumble or fall once this takes place.
As a result of new knee surgical techniques, a few companies began to develop products that would make a complete knee replacement operation and the recovery process easier for the patient. But the question is how affective are these knee implant devices - and are they safe?
Types of Knee Replacements and Injuries.
The knee surgery products now on the market include devices from a few companies. Smith & Nephew, Inc created two different types of products for both ACL and total knee replacements called the Calaxo Bone Screws, and the Oxinium Genesis II, and Profix II brand knee replacements.
Other manufacturers include: Zimmer Gender Solutions Knee and NexGen, Stryker Total Knee Replacement Systems, De Puy Corporation's Sigma Rotating Platform and Fixed Bearning products, and DJO Exactech Optetrak Knee System.
Some of the more common problem with some of the devices being reported include: Joint swelling around the knee, chronic pain, loss of flexibility, redness and or irritation in the knee. Blood clots (embolisms) in the leg veins, infection of the site, loosening of the prosthesis from the bone and possible nerve damage.
If you or someone you love has been injured from any of theses knee surgery products, you may have legal rights and options at your disposal. Contact a knee surgery attorney as soon as possible to schedule an initial consultation so you can obtain the answers you need to move forward with a foundation of knowledge. There may be class action lawsuits and settlements starting for these defective knee replacement products.

Although the LAP-BAND® surgery works wonders for a multitude of obese patients who were previously unable to lose weight, some patients still have trouble even after the procedure. While some of these patients are tempted to give up, others come to Elite Surgical Center for band-to-sleeve revision weight loss surgery.
Since gastric bands are completely reversible, any patient who is struggling with pain from the band, or if they simply find that it is not effective in helping them lose weight, they will have the band removed and switch to a gastric sleeve. The sleeve gastrectomy is proven to help patients lose weight faster, so it may be a better option for patients with dangerous co-morbidities like heart disease and diabetes that are putting their immediate health at risk.
The best way to see if revision weight loss surgery is right for you is to schedule a consultation with Elite Surgical Center. Call today THIN.2.2.THIN , or (844) 622-8446!

Singer and actress Demi Lovato had one of the best days of her life in the summer of 2007. On that day she received the part of Mitchie Torres in Disney's made-for-television movie Camp Rock and the part of Sonny Munroe in the Disney Channel sitcom Sonny with a Chance.
Both roles turned Lovato into a bona fide teen superstar. She's now a major recording artists and a popular live performer; Demi Lovato tickets sell out rapidly where ever she performs.
Lovato was born August 20, 1992 in Dallas, Texas. Her mother was a country music singer and a former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. Lovato started her show business career at the age of seven when she appeared on seasons seven and eight of Barney & Friends.
Despite the attention and accolades she received from being on television, Lovato still managed to find herself a victim of bullying.
This ordeal caused her to fall into a depression, practice self-mutilation, and develop an eating disorder. Due to myriad of problems, Lovato was home schooled. She received her diploma in 2009.
Levato on Disney
Besides her roles in Camp Rock and Sonny With a Chance, Lovato has also appeared in the original Disney Channel movie, Princess Protection Program. The movie premiered in June of 2009 and starred her friend Selena Gomez.
The flick was formulaic but fairly well-received by critics. It also garnered tremendous ratings. Lovato has also appeared on several television shows including Prison Break, Just Jordan, and Grey's Anatomy.
Like Camp Rock, Princess Protection Program featured music by Lovato. The movie contained a duet between her and Gomez as well as her song "Two Worlds Collide."
Lovato's Debut Album
Lovato's debut album was released in September of 2008 and entered the Billboard 200 at number two. It produced the singles "Get Back" and "La La Land."
The Jonas Brothers played a major role in the album's production. The brothers co-wrote several of the songs with Lovato and co-produced at least half a dozen tracks.
Lovato released her sophomore effort, Here We Go Again, a year later. This opus debuted at number one on the Billboard 200.
While she didn't work with the Jonas Brothers, Lovato did employ the services of a handful of industry stalwarts including John Mayer, Gary Clark, and Toby Gad.
The singer's third studio album, Unbroken, dropped in September of 2011.
Production of the album was delayed by Lovato's stint in rehab. It was also at this time that she quit Sonny With A Chance to pursue her musical career full time. Unbroken's first single, "Skyscraper," was Lovato's first top ten single as a solo artist.

Hello All,
I have configured ICX7450, with VLANs 1,5,6,7 and 9. The default-vlan has been changed to 4001.
Port 1/1/2 has configuration - Tagged 5,6,7 and Dual-mode 1.
Port 1/1/13 - untagged vlan 1
A Wireless controller has been attached to Port 1/1/2 and it is having Tagged VLANs 5,6,7 for Users, Management and Guests respectively. In wireless, we have configured multiple SSIDs, which are attached to different VLANs.
A DHCP server (IP = 10.100.1.11/24) has been attached on Port 1/1/13 to provide IP to all the ports. Also, a Virtual Interface for every VLAN has been created and each given IP address (10.100.X.1, where X=VLAN ID).
Finally, in all the virtual interfaces defined, the "ip helper address" mentioned is 10.100.1.11.
The problem is that I am getting IP only on VLAN 1 from DHCP Server, but not on VLANs 5,6,7. I don't know what part I am missing, but it would be great if someone could help.
Please Note: - The network has gone live and all the desktops and servers are connected on VLAN 1. If there is any possibility of downtime during the configuration, do remember to mention that.
Many thanks in advance,

What wireless controller?
Cisco's wireless controllers can define (override) DHCP settings, also they can do DHCP proxy which can cause your issues
Here is a link that explains it's function
In addition to what John wrote, have you connected a laptop or workstation to the AP with the IP already configured for the scope it should be on and tested connectivity that way? IE., can you ping your gateway, or your DHCP server?
To tack on to what they said, you could do some troubleshooting to determine if your problem is the wireless controller, or your DHCP/VLAN setup.
You could take some unused ports on your Brocade and assign each one as untagged in each VLAN (like port 1/122 untagged in VLAN 5, port 1/1/23 untagged in VLAN 6, and port 1/1/24 untagged in VLAN 7. Then plugin a laptop to each of theose ports and see if you can get a DHCP address. It would also do good to watch the logs on the DHCP server to see if the DHCP request comes in, or a DHCP offer goes out.
Write us back and let us know where you ar eon this now.
Also, not trying to add too much to your troubleshooting plate, but one thing I meant to add in my earlier post but I got interrupted mid-thought, have you confirmed your DHCP server is set up to handle each scope? Again, not trying to overload you, but this is something that is easy to check and confirm that each scope has been configured and is ready to handle all helper traffic sent its way.
Thanks to all the guys for their feedback and response. Definitely made me learn in the process through your responses.
Since the support was being done on remote, the following was done to resolve the issue: -
Wireless Controller used is that of Ruckus (named: ZoneDirector).
Issue 1: Since the uplink was done temporarily on Copper Ports (instead of Fibre), the guy at the site had wrongly connected the ports from L2 to L3. It was connected on an untagged port (carrying VLAN 1). We verified this by specifying untagged VLAN 5,6,7, etc on a port on L2 Switch and connecting PC to it and then trying to obtain IP from DHCP Server. The uplink was passing only VLAN 1.
Issue 2: Ruckus controller talks to their Access Points on VLAN 1, by default. Therefore, which ever ports on the switch had APs connected, Dual-mode 1 on them were defined, and also on the Port of L3 Switch connecting the Wireless Controller.
Doing the above two resolved the problem.
04-21-2015 12:13 AM - edited 04-21-2015 12:14 AM
Yes, John20. The suggestion helped.
Yes GB_KIR, we ensured that DHCP could handle each scope.
Initially, when we had connected a laptop directly to L3 on different ports catering to different VLANs, IP was getting received from DHCP Server.
Only when we tried to specify various untagged VLANs on L2 Switch, then IP was not being received, and that made me look into the cabling issue, about which I have replied.
Life can be funny sometimes... You look everywhere for a solution, except under your nose :smileyvery-happy:

text: Hi guys. I am very much a noob at this and I'd appreciate your help. I feel a bit of an idiot for not working this one out by myself. I had a series of ROMs on my G6, all was working well. I have now come to taking a few ROMs off the drive and adding some more. I deleted several other ROMS using the U-disk manager delete button - (3 Sudoku games, Yoshi, band bros figuring that this would give me far more space than I needed for the film noir epic Hotel Dusk). However, every time I try to add Hotel Dusk it tells me the disc is full. When I go to the 'properties' section on the windows removable disk thing it tells me I have 109mb free (not enough for a 128 meg game I'll grant you), however, when inside the G6 DS section there's less than 400 meg of games ... I'm really confused... there ought to be enough space, but there isn't... I[m obviously being stupid so someone please tell me so but the help would be greatly appreciated... and yes I'm prepared to take a bit of flak for being an idiot
