2009 Mini Cooper S
By on 1/11/15 | Northborough, MA
We have a 2009 cooper S. 46k for miles. So far we have a thermostat issue and the tranny keeps popping out of 6th gear. The car uses oil but it seems as though this is what they do as I read more about these on the web. No leaks or smoke, just uses oil. Oh, and the oil light, well there isn't one. No gage or any indicator to let you know other then the click clack if the engine to let you know that you're about to blow your engine. The car is truly a piece of crap. Totally over engineered junk. If you are thinking of getting one... DON'T. Run away from the MINI dealer as fast as you can and never, NEVER look back.
2009 Mini Cooper S
By on 1/29/11 | Safety Harbor, FL
Serious reliability issues. Knowing what we now know after owning two mini's I would never recommend this car to anyone. Latest issue is an overheat warning light that went on then off but apparently was not really off and caused the engine to melt down. Mini's answer to any warning lights is to pull over immediately no matter where you are. I would never let my wife or any young people drive this car given Mini's stance that if you do not stop immediately you have no warranty because it is now your fault. New car with 32K on it, failed water pump, clutch issue and an overheat resulting in a new engine not covered under warranty. First mini was brand new, replaced transmission and clutch with less than 5K miles on it, thought that was just because of a new model. Mini service is all dependent on your dealer.

CHICAGO -- While HighTower goes after the crème de la crème of high-end wirehouse advisors, CEO Elliot Weissbluth dismisses the Wall Street giants who currently employ them -- as well as any big firms that provide both products and advice.
"The biggest challenge will be for firms who are at their core manufacturers and/or distributors masquerading as service providers," Weissbluth said during a roaming conversation about leadership, industry challenges and what lies ahead with former Vanguard CEO Jack Brennan and moderated by CNBC's senior editor at large Jim Pavia.
In a follow-up conversation during the Chicago-based platform provider's Apex conference this week, Weissbluth explicitly called out the major Wall Street wirehouse firms as "masqueraders," noting that they would be forced to change their business models as the trend toward fee-based, fiduciary advice continues.
Firms that both sell products and provide services "will be under attack" by firms like HighTower that adhere to a fiduciary standard, as well as market forces as investor demand changes, Weissbluth said. "You can't be a fiduciary and make money off products."
Weissbluth also sees no future for small, unsophisticated advisors, arguing that there are too many advisors at the lower end of the spectrum who are likely being overcompensated for the value they offer clients. "There will be a weeding out of the mediocre advisor," he said.
That hasn't happened yet, Weissbluth says, because of asymmetry in the market: Wall Street has simply had far more marketing ammunition than the "ma and pa shops" who can't afford to market "because it takes away from their take-home economy." As a result, he said, investors haven't known where to get good financial advice.
Although both Weissbluth and Brennan acknowledged challenges facing the industry -- Brennan pointed to the lack of investor confidence and potential regulatory changes -- they are bullish on the need for human advisory services.
"There's a premium on advice when there is a situation that causes complexity," whether it is a downturn in the market or a significant change in a person's life like divorce or retirement, Weissbluth said. "Robo advisors can't do it and mediocre advisors can't do it."
While innovation in technology and the proliferation of online advice options will push firms like HighTower to figure out ways to be even more efficient and will provide investors with education about the help they need, eventually clients will need a human advisor, Brennan said. "I'm one of the biggest bulls out there on the human advisor."

Global Anti-aging Market Research Report 2018 by Transparency Market Research
Albany, New York (PRWEB) September 02, 2014
Anti-aging is proving to be a lucrative business with products and services such as anti-wrinkle treatments and products, hair restoration treatments, hair color, radio frequency-device based treatments, and breast augmentation becoming much sought after worldwide. In a new market report published by U.S.-based market intelligence firm Transparency Market Research, the global market for these anti-aging treatments and products will grow to USD 191.7 billion by 2019, from being worth USD 122.3 billion in 2013. This marks a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8% between 2013 and 2019.
What are the major segments within the anti-aging market?
From the biological perspective, aging is defined as the deterioration and/or decline of functional properties at three main levels: cells, tissues and organs. This process is essentially a cycle of biochemical activities that are brought about in the body by various factors that work both internally and externally. Arguably, age affects the beauty, fitness, and health of an individual.
For research report on "Anti-Aging Market", visit us at: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/anti-aging-market.html
The anti-aging market comprises a number of technologies and products as well as services and devices aimed at mitigating or reversing the signs of aging. A number of technological breakthroughs and advances have shaped the attributes of the anti-aging industry as well as the way market players' reach in the market. As compared to anti-aging devices and services, the category of anti-aging products demonstrates easy adoptability.
The anti-aging services segment is classified as cosmetic surgeries/procedures and non-invasive treatments, both of which are required to be practiced by certified practitioners, plastic surgeons, or trained and qualified beauty therapists. The market for anti-aging services is projected to demonstrate a CAGR of 5% between 2013 and 2019.
The market for anti-aging products is the largest in terms of revenue generation. The products market also holds potential for the introduction of new, safe, and efficient products. This is a market that is still considered to be in its evolutionary stage, and it faces a certain degree of skepticism among consumers. However, the compliance of manufacturers with stringent regulatory mandates and the use of cutting-edge technology have restored faith in these products, services and devices to some extent.
Browse full Article of Anti-Aging Market: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/article/anti-aging-market.htm
- What are the factors fueling the anti-aging market?
The anti-aging market is of special importance from the standpoint of the generation of Baby Boomers - a generation that was born between 1946 and 1964. This is a generation that witnessed a transformational era of revolutions and inventions. The Baby Boomers-widely regarded as the most successful generation in the 20th century - is now an aging generation that is nearing the age of retirement.
This makes them a consumer segment that shows maximum potential for the consumption of anti-aging products, services, and devices. The awareness among this generation pertaining to the availability of anti-aging products in the market is growing. According to reports, the first Baby Boomers reached the age of retirement in 2012. Figures also indicate that over the next 18 years, nearly 8000 individuals
per day from this generation will turn 65.

- The geographical perspective
Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World (RoW) are two regions that are projected as being most lucrative for the anti-aging market. Within this region, countries such as Japan, China, South Korea and India are expected to emerge as the most sought-after destinations for anti-aging treatments and cosmetic surgeries.
This aspect is only bolstered by the fact that the governments of these nations are introducing various methods to promote medical tourism. In the RoW segment, Mexico and Brazil are being viewed as companies that will attract a significant share in the anti-aging market. These countries are witnessing rapid development on the economic front and there is a simultaneous growth in awareness pertaining to anti-aging treatments, therapies and products among both men and women. This has paved the way for Brazil and Mexico to rank among the most attractive markets in the future.

Build Guide by Kalivha
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Lux Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Lux is an easy-to-play champion with high survivability, low downtime and high damage. She's also cute, isn't she?
This build is focused around AP with a bit of survivability on the side.
Passive: Illumination
Lux's damaging spells charge the target with energy for 6 seconds. Lux's next attack ignites the energy, dealing 20-190 (depending Lux's level (lvl*10+10)) magic damage to the target.
This increases your farming ability and can gain you some kills where the enemy almost escaped. Attack targets your spells have damaged, simple.
Q: Light Binding
Lux releases a sphere of light that immobilizes and deals damage to up to two enemy units for 2 seconds, dealing 50% effect to the 2nd unit struck.
This is your most powerful CC. When laning, it can be used as a damaging spell, but when you are chasing down enemy champions, take care that there is no minions blocking the spell's path.
In group fights, you can shield more champions by moving so that they are in the wand's path.
W: Prismatic Barrier
Lux throws her wand and bends the light around any friendly target it touches, protecting them from enemy damage for 3 seconds.
This is a handy little spell. It can save allied champions as well as yourself, providing great value for mana if it hits on multiple champions. In most games, it won't be necessary to take this to a high level early on if your allies are playing well. If you are feeling particularly squishy, feel free to put points in this earlier than I suggest.
E: Lucent Singularity
Fires an anomaly of twisted light to an area, which slows nearby enemies. Lux can detonate it to damage enemies in the area of effect.
Slow, AoE damage, good. It's not a very powerful spell, but it can help you escape, gain you a small advantage in early game laning and is generally not bad.
Ultimate: Finales Funkeln
After gathering energy, Lux fires a beam of light that deals damage to all targets in the area.
This is a powerful ultimate with a short cooldown. It scales well with AP, and firing it at a champion who is immobilised by Light Binding can take a huge chunk out of their HP.
Summoner spells
1. Teleport
This allows you to port to your base and get back into lane quickly - more time spent laning equals a higher chance of success
2. Clarity
Until level 10 or so you will encounter some mana issues. This helps you stay in lane longer, can give you the opportunity to shield yourself (and others) when you were OOM and allows for a steady damage output.
If you don't like Teleport, you can replace it with Flash for chasing down that enemy who's at 15 HP or Ignite for higher damage output. I wouldn't recommend Ghost or Exhaust as you have plenty of escape mechanics which can also help your allies escape!
Another safe option is Fortify - it's not a brilliant spell, but it won't go to waste unless your team is much better than the enemy in which case it won't matter if you have a more useful spell in that slot or not.
Starting items
Meki Pendant: This will keep you in your lane longer, and can be upgraded to either one of the mana items of choice.
Mana Potion: This is cheap and will also increase the time you can spend laning; at early levels, it scales really well.
Health Potion: If you think you are going to take some damage early on and want to stay in lane, this will make it safer for the lowest amount of gold for any item in game.
After this, your build depends on the composition of the enemy team.
Magic heavy team (4 or 5 mage type champions)
You should upgrade your Meki Pendant to a Chalice of Harmony. This will keep you in lane almost indefinitely while also providing some protection against the enemy champions' spells.
Next, you buy Boots of Speed. That speed boost is important.
You can then upgrade them to Mercury's Treads to give you that little extra protection against the enemies' magic and decrease the effects of any CC from their team.
Alternatively, if you don't think you need the defensive stats from Mercury's, you can go with Sorcerer's Shoes.
Physical heavy team (4 or 5 physical damage champions)
Upgrade your Meki Pendant to Tear of the Goddess instead; it will enable you to gain more AP earlier, and AP is good.
Next, buy your basic shoes again.
Then upgrade your Tear to an Archangel's Staff -- it will give you a boost in AP early on that makes your ulimate destructive.
Next, upgrade your shoes. You should by now have a feel for the level of skill of the enemy team and buy accordingly -- if you want to focus a little on defence, get Ninja Tabi, otherwise go with Sorcerer's Shoes as they're always a good option.
Mixed Team
Get your Tear, Boots, upgrade the Tear to an Archangel's Staff, upgrade your boots -- if there's a lot of CC coming your way, use Mercury's, otherwise Sorcerer's.
From this point onward your build isn't dependent on the enemy team make-up anymore. There are some variations which I will explain.
Which item you choose to buy next depends on how the game is going.
There are four options.
If you aren't prone to dying and forking in many enemy kills, get Meijai's Soulstealer. This should be bought before any items listed below it so that you can build stacks relatively early on.
If you find yourself under magical attack and going down a lot and the enemies seem to be immune against all your spells, buy an Abyssal Scepter.
If you are assaulted by all sort of damage, get Rylai's Crystal Scepter, starting with Giant's Belt.
Otherwise, get a Deathfire Grasp, starting with the Fiendish Codex. Even though the focus is on AP here, a little cooldown reduction can make immobilizing that much easier and insta-killing stuff with lasers more often is never bad.
I usually go with Rylai's and Deathfire Grasp, the order depends on the enemies' firepower. If I still have time after that and am not dying, Mejai's is my next item of choice.
There's only one thing left to do to make you unstoppable once you have bought whichever items of the above four you wanted.
Zhonya's ring! Chances are that the game is over (and won) by the time you get around to buying this, but games can be long.
The main disadvantage of this build is that you don't really provide any useful auras to your teammates.
I'll add some advice on how to play Lux later.
As this isn't finalised yet, any constructive criticism is welcome. It will also be after it's finalised, but it's more important now.

South Texas' water problems cannot be addressed without considering the 1.3 million acre feet Mexico owes the United States according to a 1944 water treaty between the two countries.
So it was good news when Mexico announced recently it would release 600,000 acre-feet to the United States by the end of July. But is it a drop in the bucket or the beginning of full repayment? At this point, nobody knows.
Everyone agrees that it's a step in the right direction, a step resulting directly from efforts of south Texas farmers, the International Boundary and Water Commission, a large number of state officials, including border congressmen from Brownsville to El Paso, Senators Phil Gramm and Kay Bailey Hutchison, and Governor Rick Perry. And "the essential impetus for bringing this matter to a head was the personal involvement of President Bush in pressing the issue with President Fox," says Ray Prewett, executive vice president of Texas Citrus Mutual.
Prewett, at a recent Cotton Planting Seminar in Weslaco, noted that getting Mexico to pay back the water "has more to do with politics and diplomacy than it has to do with anything." This is an issue that could cause a serious dispute between two nations that want to stay on good terms.
It is the ambiguity of the treaty that has caused foot-dragging on the part of both countries. Starting in the 1992-97-time period, Mexico's debt had built up to 1.024 million acre-feet. According to the treaty, under normal circumstances Mexico would not be permitted to have any debt at the end of the first five year period, which came in October 1987; however, there is room for differing opinions about when the water has to be delivered if Mexico is in a "severe drought," a phrase not defined in the treaty.
By the end of the second cycle, in October 2002, the treaty specifies that all debts must be paid under any circumstances.
Jo Jo White, general manager of Hidalgo and Cameron Counties Irrigation District NO. 9, greets the announcement that Mexico has begun fulfilling its promise with only guarded optimism.
"All new increases to our supply are urgently needed and will be used for beneficial purposes," he says. "In reality, the 600,000 acre-feet water payment does very little in regard to reducing the existing deficit."
According to the treaty, Mexico must repay the previous five-year cycle deficit during the current five-year cycle along with any water necessary to prevent a deficiency in this cycle.
White explains that the 1944 treaty is the only viable source that generates our major water resources. Mexico, in turn, benefits from the same treaty by receiving its water resources from the Colorado River as it enters northwestern Mexico, an obligation the United States has never failed to honor.
"Though greatly needed and appreciated," White says, "the 600,000-acre feet commitment falls far short in addressing the outstanding deficit. After receiving and crediting the balance of the 600,000 acre feet at the end of July, Mexico will have only 14 months to provide 1.5 million acre-feet to prevent a treaty violation.
"As one can readily see, much stronger actions are needed to force an aggressive repayment schedule."
He urges every resident in the region to contact various power positions in Washington to begin new efforts in addressing the deficit dilemma.
"Time is of the utmost importance — failure to force new commitments from Mexico will result in a disastrous scenario for the Rio Grande Valley's future water needs."

Track By Track Review: Jack Beats "U.F.O" EP
Jack Beats' new EP dropped today on digital stores (it came on vinyl on July 20th) and, being somewhat of a fan, I'm gonna give it a track-by-track review. Normally I can't be bothered to do these, but this is only three tracks, so no biggie.
First up is title track "U.F.O (K-Hole Riddim)". Starting with an eerie sample of an extra terrestrial encounter, the song builds up with crunk-style synths before plunging head first into that pummelling bass wobble that Jack Beats are known for.
Second is "Get Down (VIP Edit)", a modified version of JB's already brilliant track. More emphasis on the bassline and a stronger beat than the original makes this the standout track on the EP for me. If you're not moving at least one part of your body right now, then electro is just not for you. Go listen to Lady Gaga or something.
Finally, "Labyrinth" is a more chilled out affair (at least as far as Jack Beats tunes go). Ominous synth choirs, a quiet bass rumble and a low pitched vocal build up to a drop of laid-back bass rave. While this may not be the best track here, it's definitely the most interesting.
Overall rating: 8/10

Good track- although pretty much a fidgety electro remix of Altern-8's "Infiltrate 202". Destined to be a dance floor stormer nonetheless.

Welcome to the Big Creek & Southern!
Fall Open Meet 2017
Every year the BC&S hosts it's annual Fall Open Meet the fourth full week of September. For 2017 the dates are Sept. 20th through 24th. Attendees may arrive any time during the week and the railroad will be open daily for operating starting at noon on Monday and continuing until the last train is loaded out on the following Sunday. In addition, we host an early summer operations weekend which will be the first weekend in June for 2017. This is a three day event beginning Thursday evening and ending Sunday morning. The dates for the Operations Weekend are June 1st through 4th. No prior experience in operations is necessary and while our focus will be on operating the BC&S like a real railroad, everyone is welcome to come and run trains in conjunction with operations. It actually makes it more challenging for the train crews engaged in local switching and keeps the yard crews even busier!
The Big Creek & Southern features prototype operations (we run like a real railroad!) as well as general "casual running" (just hop on and ride!). We are constantly working to maintain the railroad in top-notch running condition and continue to add more features to make the railroad more fun to operate and an enjoyable experience for all. We are always looking for new members (no dues!) to join us and help with keeping the railroad in the kind of operational condition that it is known for throughout the riding scale hobby. For more info on how to get involved, contact Pat or Jim!
Logging in
Our website features a "members only" section where you can download our timetable, rule book, and other information about our railroad, register for meets and events, and stay informed about what's going on here on the BC&S! To create a member account, simply click on the SIGN UP link below the Log In on the left side of the page. Your personal information is kept private and secure. Why do we ask for your email address and other information? We want to ensure that you receive the latest information about the railroad and especially any last minute details about meets, etc.
About our railroad...
The Big Creek & Southern is a private 7 1/2 inch railroad situated on a 13.3 acre tract of former farm land and is devoted to having fun with riding scale trains. We are located 40 miles southeast of Kansas City, about midway between Lees Summit and Harrisonville, Missouri. We have a monthly run day the fourth Saturday of each month and any persons interested in or already involved in the live steam railroading hobby are welcome to come and run with us. If you live within an hour's drive of the railroad and want to operate with us, we ask that you participate as much as possible in our work days (Saturdays from April through November, weather permitting). If you have not operated with us previously, we ask that you please contact us by email before coming for the first time.
Regrettably, due to the high cost of liability insurance, the Big Creek & Southern is not open to the general public and we do not offer train rides nor host parties for the general public. For these things we endorse and highly recommend the Kansas City Northern Railroad located at Line Creek Park at 60th Street and N.W. Waukomis Drive (one mile north of I-29 at Waukomis Drive) in Kansas City's Northland and invite you to contact them for your special group or train party needs. For more information on the Kansas City Northern, CLICK HERE.
Regular Events on the BC&S
- We have open "run day" the 4th Saturday of every month. In addition, each year we host three special operating events which are
- New Years Day Frostbite Run and Chili Lunch (New Years Day)
- Operations Weekend (1st weekend in June)

I justed checked the scripting API and I think that the shadow fade-out/in effect can be scripted to play automatically when a shadow ship jumps in or out.
So what you want is a flag like the existing no warp effect one but only kills the effect not the rest of the warp. Sounds doable. One thing before all these effects get a bit out of hand. Remember there is a bitmap limit. So when possible it's best to keep the effects as small as possible and usable by as many things as possible. I've been redoing all the lods on the EA ships to free up a bunch of slots but it will be awhile before I get to other races.
For the Midwinters weapons i rewatched severed dreams and managed to get some shots of the midwinters weapons., every weapon pulse in the shots comes from the midwinter(clarkstown), hope these help.
IMHO, Centauri effect is too red, I think that it should be orange-red (as seen on screencap).
I could probably make an animated texture set given that I had original textures to work with...
I justed checked the scripting API and I think that the shadow fade-out/in effect can be scripted to play automatically when a shadow ship jumps in or out. Using texture replacement the animated texture would be set and either replaced by the default texture when the animation has been played once or the ship would be removed from the mission when it is warping out. This way even old missions would benefit from the script as no additional mission setup would be required if it works the way I imagine it. I'd like to try it but I'm no texture artist so I'd need some animated texture to have a starting point.So, what do you think?
Seems the all Omega turrets have one and the same weapons effect... and thunderbolt also.
I hope this will help you, but don't expect to much. These impulses are moving too fast for getting decent screencaps. Seems the all Omega turrets have one and the same weapons effect... and thunderbolt also.
This makes sense from a technical point of view. The EA would build their most powerful weapons into both!
Den5 once made special TBP build which had a "shadow" type warpout and warpin effects, along with a couple of other interesting features.
Well the Drazi capship weapons really needed some attention so they got it.
On a trailer for TBP's Earth-Brakiri War however, their weapons were red instead.

My, my!! Hello there. If you are friend call me Emerald if it pleases you if not Emerald will do nicely... My friends might say I'm a bit crazy but that is a decision you should make on your own. I am a passionate writer, I love writing, almost as much if not more then drawing and art... OK! Now that I look really gay...
Oh!! And you might find I can't spell worth... so forgive, me I love word doc. I also love many, many other things... I'm only myself with friends, so I prefer to get to know you, but be very, very afraid... warned, damn tacos. I'm a loner just a close few friends. I fell comfy with a few people if many are around I close up blend into the back ground. I'm wallpaper and happy with it. Yes for those who know me they'd look at me like I was crazy for saying that but hey... I don't care.
I am protective of those I think of as family. This in the odd chance includes my friends.
I love a lot of parings so i won't even bother. >_>
I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the person ashamed to tell my own friends I'm a lesbian, because they constantly make fun of them.
A girl and guy were speeding over 100mph on a motorcycle

I've never written an obit. Never thought I would.
But this is for a man who never ceased to amaze me - with his goodness, with his talent, with his eccentricities... With his 'humaness'. Dhaval Dhairyawan, a person who I will always regard as a friend first and then the chief photographer of TopGear India, left this world of ours yesterday, March 22, 2012, after a prolonged illness leaving behind a doting sister and a caring father.
When I joined TopGear, I knew most of the guys working here. Among the handful I didn't know, was Dhaval. But it didn't stay that way for long. And I think of it as a privilege because like a lot of things in life, Dhaval was also extremely choosy about his friends and people he would like to be with.
From being a young photojournalist at the Times Journal of Photography to blistering the automotive segment with his prolific style in TopGear, Dhaval was easily one of the best photographers in India, today. His energy was unending - especially if there was a set of wheels to shoot. If there was anything else that he loved as much as his work then it was cars. Which obviously always made him push harder and further.
There have been times when I urged him to go easy on the innovation for the smaller shoots but he would not listen. I've not met many perfectionists in life, but Dhaval definitely was one. His courage and steely resolve to get things done and soldier on - I was envious at times of his tough character and immense talent. There have been moments where I have drawn inspiration from him but I never got a chance to tell him that.
I knew Dhaval for only six years, but I will cherish his friendship for my lifetime. And I am sure, I am not the only one who would think that way.
If there's any such thing as rebirth, Dhaval, it will be a pleasure to meet you again.

Aronowitz – Presentation by Cindy Dehaen, July 2012 HUMAN SMUGGLING AND TRAFFICKING Defining the phenomenon: establishing coherent understanding Magnitude of the problem,understanding the reasons for its existence, identifying the root causes, analysis of the markets National and international programs & the importance of cooperation: strategies to fight smuggling and trafficking SMUGGLED OR TRAFFICKED? Voluntary vs unvoluntary Amount of money paid by the victim upon arrival in the destination country Creating a debt bondage: most victims are women & children (used for sexual exploitation & forced labor) Traffickers escape from prosecution: deception & coercion The symbiotic relationship between illegal & conventional markets: use of sub-contracts => both profit of the use of smuggled or trafficked victims e.g.: textile industry, building industry, restaurants, factories, farms... MAGNITUDE, REASONS, ROOT CAUSES => Accurate statistics: difficult due to its clandistine nature => Estimate by the IOM: > 4 million a year => 5 factors indicating an increasing & expanding market: # of people living in poverty willing to take the chance lack in border control: corrupt government officials world & economy globalisation advanced technology & communication growing organized crime The PUSH and PULL factors: the REAL CAUSES of LEGAL AND ILLEGAL immigration PUSH: • • • • • • Government corruption Infant mortality rate Proportion of youngsters Food production index Population density Social unrest PULL: • • • • • Easy border control (suggesting government corruption) Infant mortality rate Male population over 60 Food production index Energy consumption MARKETS BENEFITING FROM IT (ANALYSIS) While some (il)legal migrants immediately end up in the third market, some start working the domestic service economy or in restaurants, often in slave-like conditions Wanting to escape from being mistreated, a lot of (il)legal migrants end up in the illicit sex industry Legitimate economy Forced labor & 'doubtfull' markets Criminal industry and illicit sex industry Often includes deplorable working, living and sanitary conditions 3 LEVELS WITHIN THE ILLICIT SEX INDUSTRY 1. 2. 3. Small-scale activities by individual entrepreneurs (brothels) Mid-level prostitution of clandestine operations importing and controlling women Large-scale international criminal organisations linked with domestic criminal organisations , keeping women without documentation under tight control => PROFITS USUALLY REINVESTED IN THE LEGITIMATE ECONOMY THROUGH MONEY LAUNDERING TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES USED FOR RECRUTEMENT: THE INTERNET DIFFERENT DEGREES OF ORGANIZATION Evidence by Europol: • high degree of organization • evolved from large entities to smaller horizontal structures to co-operate in the European Union Management unit Organizations unit Specilized sub-units Recruters Informers Before transport Corrupt public officials .. Transporters Half of the sex-industry = in hands of nonnationals Investors During transport Increased flexibility & decentralization allow a faster adaptation & re-organization in case of threats from law enforcement but also market competition & higher demand! Guides Enforcers … Debtcollectors Upon arrival ... Horizontal interpendency => diversification => expansion into other illicit markets & criminal activities: • vehicle theft • drug trafficking • trafficking in arms • money laundering CONDITIONS FACILITATING THE PRACTICE 1. 2. 3. 4. Lack of legislation Lack of political will => corruption Lack of capacity: manpower & material Lack of co-operation nationally & internationally CONDITIONS & MEASURES NECESSARY TO FIGHT IT 1. 2. Prevention – Protection – Assistance: => awareness-raising campaigns in countries of origin & sensitization campaigns in transit/destination countries => assistance programs & effective laws => economic measures: strenghtening educational, training & job opportunities => training material for fieldworkers => a range of services for victims => better protection & more legal measures granted to NGO's Enforcement – Prosecution of Traffickers: => obligatory existance of legislation & enforcement: eradicating corruption => enforcing agencies: allow them to take disruptive measures => gathering & sharing of intelligence on national & international level ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN Establish: Exchange of information Co-ordination & harmonization of national policies & laws Result: national Bi-lateral or multi-lateral agreements coalitions & Repatriation & reintegration assistance international Extradition of criminals co-operation Training of government officials More severe penalties for trafficking => IF NOT: THE FLOW OF ILLEGAL TRAFFICKING IS SIMPLY DISPLACED (f.e. influx illegal Chinese into Great-Britain as a result of stringent measures in Germany) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

What were they doing out here this late in history? –Thomas Pynchon
Against the Day
From, roughly, the World's Fair in Chicago in 1893 to, roughly, the silent movies and the Palmer Raids of the early postwar 1920s, nobody in this novel is ever home. Instead–flyboys and magicians, anarchists and Pinkertons, alchemists and pilgrims, mathematicians and spies, fugitives, refugees, nomads, bandits, ghosts–they are on the road and on the lam. Or up in a hot-air balloon, looking down on volcanoes and the Paris Commune. Or burrowing underground like a Frank Herbert sandworm, in search of Shambhala, the earthly paradise of Tibetan Buddhism, or Aztlan, the mythical home of the original Mexicans. And no matter how hard they run in Outer Europe, Inner Asia, Deep Germany or the wild American West, something sinister keeps gaining on them–"polar darkness," "ancient purpose," "mad disorder," "ruin and sorrow," "the stripped and dismal metonymies of the dead" and/or a fourth dimension.
"Gravity pulls along the third dimension, up to down," says one of the many mad scientists we meet in these feverish pages; "time pulls along the fourth, birth to death."
We hear a lot about the fourth dimension in Against the Day, as well as double refraction, bilocation, perfect mirrors, imaginary numbers and lateral world-sets. We hear equally about US labor history, including Haymarket, Homestead, Coeur d'Alene, Cripple Creek, Ludlow and Mother Jones; and the Mexican Un-Revolution, that strut-and-fret of Diaz, Madero, Huerta, Carranza, Obregón, Villa and Zapata; and ethnic seething in the Balkans, before Rebecca West, Marshal Tito or Richard Holbrooke got a chance to do their fiddles; and turn-of-the-century parapsychology, with its mountain-misted tommyknockers and dreamworld Tenochtitlans. But because Against the Day is a full-blown and full-fledged Pynchon novel–and thus not only an occasion of joy in every nook of American culture except The New Republic but also a phantasmagoria whose only conceivable analogue is another Pynchon novel, Gravity's Rainbow–we hear almost as much about mayonnaise, Futurism, landmines, poison gas and the ancient Albanian honor code of Kanuni Lekë Dukagjinit.
"Inspect your shoes, Mrs. Kindred, it's gettin deep around here."
As usual, there are dozens of characters with silly names (Mia Culpepper, an astrologist, is my favorite, but Pleiade Lafrisee's hard to beat). And dozens of words we have to look up (absquatulated, fulgurescence, xanthocroid, cataplexy). And geography-drops to shame Bruce Chatwin (Tsangpo-Brahmaputra, Domodossola). And snacks to sate velociraptors (brain tacos, Meat Olaf). And, though nothing is quite as addictive as a blood vendetta, enough mind-altering substances to kill the White Rabbit (opium beer, cactus peyote, chloral hydrate, cigarettes soaked in absinthe, "cocainized brain tonics" and somewhere on the Silk Road between Turfan and Novosibirsk a flowering hemp twelve feet tall and fungomaniacs who drink each other's urine). Plus a speaking in tongues that ranges, according to its narrative needs and whimsies, from Gulliver's Travels and The Book of Urizen to The Labyrinth of Solitude and The Tin Drum; from Herman Melville to Nathanael West to John Dos Passos to Joseph Heller to Carlos Castaneda, by way of extreme Kerouac; from Mark Twain, Jules Verne, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Dashiell Hammett to S.J. Perelman, P.G. Wodehouse, Umberto Eco and Monty Python; from such boys' adventure books as Tom Swift in the Caves of Ice to such '40s radio serials as Mr. Keen, Tracer of Lost Persons to such '40s flicks as Casablanca and The Third Man. (And yet, and yet–always the jaunty, cheeky, demotic, katzenjammer Tom, joshing us through what Don DeLillo calls the "whispers and apparitions at the edge of modern awareness," as if Huck Finn surfed a Mississippi wave of dread.)

Islanders. Love 'Em.
Posted on July 25th 2009 under Uncategorized
The ever-changing work of poetry and art that is the window of Last Flight Out, continues to amuse and be noticed. Owner, Harry Krix, took to island life like a dog to a bone from the moment that he arrived and has embraced it ever since. And we're all the luckier for it. Cool stuff inside.
