Life Long Learning
Torah Study
Torah Study is led by members of Kol Shalom from 9:00-10:00 a.m. every Shabbat before services. Explore the meaning of the Torah. Together, we study the text in English with modern commentary.
Torah Study is not a class, but rather an ongoing discussion in which everyone has a chance to participate in a thought-provoking dialogue about Torah. Come study and learn with us...
CKS Adult Education
Not everyone finds their connection to our tradition through prayers, holidays and observance. Yet although that sometimes can feel like a reason to distance oneself from modern Judaism, the reality is that the synagogue as a center of life-long learning, the Beit Midrash, shines equally brightly as a pathway to relationship. At Kol Shalom we consider Adult Education one of the primary pillars of the community and strive to offer high quality opportunities for all types of interests. If you have already fallen in love with our Sunday and Tuesday learning, welcome back. If you have been wondering how to find your place in the community, welcome!
Our adult education this year will take place on (most) Sundays from 3 – 5 p.m. and (most) Tuesdays from 7 – 9 p.m. Sundays are for monthly rotating deep dives and Tuesdays this year are for . . .

Adult Hebrew and Adult Bar/Bat Mitzvah
It is finally here! After years of requests, Laura and I will be offering an Adult B'nei Mitzvah course. Since B'nei Mitzvah requires at the very least Hebrew reading skills, we will be starting in November and December with two classes of Adult Hebrew – one for absolute beginners (to learn to read Hebrew) and one based on Ulpan (Israeli immersion) concepts for those that can already read. If you are already proficient or fluent these classes will not be necessary. Also, if you wish to take Hebrew but are not interesting in continuing on to the Bar/Bat Mitzvah class starting in January, the class is also being offered as a stand-alone class. Please note that as this class is being co-taught, there will be a fee for Laura's time and for class materials. Registration with the CKS office is required. (206-842-9010)
Adult Hebrew 1 and 2
Dates: Tuesdays from 7 – 9 p.m. Nov. 7, 14, 28*, Dec. 12*, 19, and 26.
*I will be out of town on 11/28 and 12/12. Both Beginning and Advanced classes will be combined and Laura will use those two classes to talk and teach about Biblical and Prayerbook Hebrew, trope markings and other topics.
Cost: CKS Members $40. Non-Members $100. (Please note that there is Financial Assistance for members that wish to learn and cannot afford the class cost. Simply let Darla know at the time of registration and the cost will be taken care of. Our doors to learning are OPEN!)
Hebrew 1: If you have not yet mastered or begun to learn the Aleph-Bet and the vowels, this is the class for you. What are those dots in the letters and why do the letters sometime change sounds? What are the techniques to build speed and confidence with reading Hebrew? How do I finally stop reading the transliteration in the prayerbook and focus only on the Hebrew letters? Come and join us!
Hebrew 2: You can read along with the prayerbook without using the transliteration, but wish to add basic comprehension and speaking to the sounds. This class will focus on listening comprehension, tools for basic survival communication and deeper fluency with the prayerbook.
Adult Bar and Bat Mitzvah
Dates: Tuesdays from 7-9 p.m. Jan. 9, 16, 23, Feb. 6, 13, 20, 27, Mar 6, 13, 20 and 27.
Costs: 25$ per student – CKS membership required.
There are so many reasons to sign up for adult Bar and Bat Mitzvah programs. Some did not have an opportunity when growing up and some might have by choice joined Klal Yisrael as adults. Some even may have had a youth celebration and life-long learning, but wish to re-enter into the exploration of liturgy, service leadership and reading Torah and Haftarah.
The CKS Adult B'nei Mitzvah Program deals with two modalities: service leadership and the underlying concepts. Classes will be divided into the practical and philosophical. On the practical side, leading prayers, reading Torah and Haftarah as well as the meaning of prayers will be taught primarily by Laura, and on the philosophical side, the Jewish Liturgy, from history to form to choreography will be explored with me. The culmination of the class with be an Adult B'nei Mitzvah celebration, completely led by the class, at a Shabbos service TBD in April or May.
Note: Because this class includes leadership responsibilities from all attendees, we ask that you try to get the meetings of the calendar as soon as possible so that you are able to attend as many classes as possible.
Sunday Afternoon Deep Dives
Classes are free for members and there is a recommended donation of $50 for non-members. As always, if you love adult education and want to keep it growing, let our leadership know and feel free to donate to the General Fund in honor of Adult Ed to keep the lights on and the classes coming.
The Origin of Hell and Satan
November 5 and 12, 2017 from 3 – 5 p.m.
What the H . . .? Or more specifically, where the heck did that concept come from? What about Satan? Is this character mentioned at all in our tradition? The Origin of Hell and Satan will take a look at the surprising evolution of these terms and concepts that have found their way deeply into the bedrock of various world religions as well as art, music and of course Hollywood. (Dogma, anyone?)
Ecstatic Utterances
December 3 and 17, 2017 from 3 – 5 p.m.
Does Judaism have any traditions of trance or ecstasy? Other religions have the charismata or kundalini—what about us? We will look at some surprising texts from our past up to some practices that have found their way all the way up to today, including discussions on the psychological and biological evolutionary implications of having the ability to step into ecstatic states.
Jewish Death, Mourning and Bereavement: History, Law, Practice and Discussion
January 7, 14, and 21, 2018 from 3 – 5 p.m. (Co-taught by Rebbetzin Sandra.)
What is Shiva really about and is it still important today? What about Kriah, the tearing of garments? What about laying rocks on gravestones? Where do these traditions come from? What about the rituals of the Chevra Keddisha, or the burial society tasked with cleansing and enshrouding a body? Are they set in Jewish Law or are they minhagim that have developed over time? Are they empty rituals or do they contain a deeper wisdom? What about variant practices of today such as cremation or eco-burial? We will take three weeks to put it all on the table and open it for discussion. Mourning practices are among the most intimate and uncomfortable subjects we can approach, yet as such are among the most important. This class is not to change anyone's beliefs of wishes, rather to place history, information and concepts of the table for our community to function as a learning synagogue in dialogue with every aspect of our life cycle. I believe this will be one of our most important moments of learning together.
Great Jewish Thinkers Vol. 3
February 4, 11, and 25, 2018 from 3 – 5 p.m.
The third of a series of classes on Jewish thinkers, volume three will look at the lives and works of three critical voices in our tradition, Nachmanides or Ramban, Nachman of Breslau and Joseph B. Soloveitchik. How do their voices still resonate today? What thoughts did they bring into the Jewish world and what influenced them from outside of Judaism? Each class will include background discussion and study of text excerpts. This is a stand-alone class and it isn't necessary to have attended Volume 1 and 2 to attend and thoroughly enjoy.
Interfaith Dialogue Series 1: Sibling Rivalries—Jewish and Christian Polemic Texts
March 4, 11 and 18, 2018 from 3 – 5 p.m. (Co-taught by Pastor Colin Cushman from Seabold Methodist Church.)
What does the Christian Bible say about Jews and why? What about the Talmud and our Liturgy—are there any hidden moments meant to denigrate our Christian brothers and sisters? Part of the essence of interfaith dialogue is looking honestly and unflinchingly at how we have created the concept of "other" in our traditions. Members of Kol Shalom, Seabold Methodist and the greater community will be invited to participate in a three-week panel dialogue between me and Pastor Cushman as we read polemic texts from our own traditions and then respond to the texts historically, theologically and practically, and then open the discussion to our communities. This is a pilot of a potential series of ongoing interfaith dialogue classes that will hopefully in time spread across our diverse traditions in North Kitsap County.

Download citation file: RIS (Zotero) EndNote BibTex Medlars ProCite RefWorks Reference Manager Mendeley © Copyright Tools Search Book Top Return Clip Autosuggest Results ++ Nipple discharge affects 5% to 30% of women during their lifetime. Surgery is rarely indicated. Many benign conditions cause nipple discharge, including duct ectasia, cystic disease, papillomas, infection, and abnormal production of prolactin. In addition, many medications can produce discharge. Discharges are usually categorized as physiologic or pathologic, depending on their color, frequency, and the involvement of single or multiple ducts. Those discharges that are bilateral, creamy or greenish in color, draining from multiple ducts, nonspontaneous, and associated with an otherwise normal physical exam and mammogram are rarely due to cancer or papillomas and do not require surgery except rarely for relief of symptoms. Clinical characteristics that suggest a pathologic discharge are unilateral discharge through a single duct; the presence of a bloody, clear, or serous discharge; discharge that is spontaneous; and those associated with a mass. Pathologic discharges usually require surgery to rule out a malignant cause, although cancer as a cause of nipple discharge is unusual.1-3 In a series of 204 patients presenting to a multidisciplinary group with nipple discharge, only 7 (3%) were found to have cancer or 9% of those ultimately referred for surgery.2 In a group of 82 patients referred to a surgical clinic with pathologic nipple discharge (spontaneous red or serous discharge from a single duct), 4 were found to have cancer (5%). Advanced age has been seen to be a predictor of cancer in women with nipple discharge.1,2 ++ A patient presenting with a pathologic nipple discharge for evaluation should have a mammogram and physical examination. ++ Physical Examination ++ A physical exam should include the usual palpation of the breast as well as looking for trigger points that elicit the discharge. This trigger point is often used to decide on location for the circumareolar incision. The nipple is carefully inspected for adenomas in the nipple as well as excoriations or skin changes that can lead to blood on the surface of the nipple. Excoriations from trauma, eczema, fungal rashes, and Paget disease can lead to blood staining of the bra, which patients can mistake for a nipple discharge. ++ The nipple discharge should be elicited to confirm the color, volume, and whether a single or multiple ducts are involved. The color should be distinguished by placing it on a white surface like gauze as the green-black discharge of duct ectasia is often mistaken for blood and these 2 discharges are treated differently. Yellow or green discharge from multiple ducts is usually a sign of duct ectasia and rarely requires surgery. The absence of blood on a guaiac card does not eliminate the possibility of a pathologic discharge,4 but its strong presence demands further evaluation. Any palpable mass should be needle biopsied. A nearby cyst can discharge into the nipple causing a serous discharge, and aspiration can halt the discharge. Similarly, infectious processes may discharge into the nipple and signs of infection should be treated ...

Human Fetus Skeletal Joint
Humans and other mammals incorporate joints in their skeletal structure, which allow both complex movement and a degree of flexibility that helps avoid bone breakage. Joints, which may or may not be cartilaginous, develop from mesoderm of the embryo, or in the case of the human fetus, after the ossification of the bones of the fetus. The non-condensed, undifferentiated portions of mesoderm between the bones may develop by one of three mechanisms.

Have you written the next must-have box-set? Should your words be heard at world renowned theatres? Is your feature script one rung away from the silver screen? If so, then a new Welsh language script writing initiative, being launched today (Friday 20 June 2014) at the Dinefwr Literature Festival might be for you.
Y Labordy, funded by Creative Skillset Cymru's Skills for the Digital Economy Programme, S4C, Arts Council of Wales and Ffilm Cymru Wales, is a tailored initiative for Welsh writers of TV, theatre and film, and will be delivered by Literature Wales. It is a unique opportunity for four experienced and aspiring writers to develop their ideas alongside some of the most respected script writers and producers in the industry.
The selected four will bring with them talent and experience; and with bespoke and specialist training and development, they will have the opportunity to expand their knowledge and skills to enable them to pitch to an array of international industry commissioners; and hopefully succeed on a high-end international platform.
Gwawr Thomas, Director of Creative Skillset Cymru said: "The most important factor in the continued growth of the Creative Industries in Wales is the development of our creative talent. We are working with key players of the Creative Industries in Wales to deliver this ground-breaking writers initiative.
"The scheme will help individuals to develop their skills so they can be the best in their field, and provide the sector with the trained, industry-ready talent needed to help Welsh businesses grow in an internationally competitive market."
Gwawr Martha Lloyd, S4C Drama Content Commissioner said: "We are very fortunate in Wales to have a wealth of imaginative and ambitious writers. Our hope with this scheme is to work with these individuals to elevate their work to an even higher standard of excellence.
"This is an ambitious initiative which allows us to offer bespoke opportunities for Welsh language authors to co-operate with mentors and gain from the experiences of talented individuals who have produced original and cutting edge content for TV, film and theatre on the international stage. We're proud to invest in the future of the creative industries is Wales and in the future of Welsh content on S4C."
Successful applicants will participate in an 11 month fully-funded tailored scheme; involving residential courses at the renowned Tŷ Newydd Writers' Centre, regular bespoke one-to-one mentoring, networking opportunities, business skills development and project specific guidance.
Y Labordy is part of Creative Skillset Cymru's £4.5m Skills for the Digital Economy programme (SfDE), which aims to develop and deliver flexible, industry-led training to meet the needs of Creative Media employers and freelancers working or living in West Wales, the Valleys, and North West Wales.
SfDE is backed with £2.7m from the European Social Fund (ESF) through the Welsh Government, with the rest of the funds provided by Welsh broadcaster S4C, the trade association for independent producers in film and television in Wales, Teledwyr Annibynnol Cymru (TAC) and Creative Skillset Cymru.
To be selected for a place on Y Labordy, applicants must have at least one professional screen or theatre credit and will have to submit an expression of interest, two original story ideas to be developed into a script for TV, Film or Theatre as well as a sample script of their own work.

In Megatron VGA the player sits in the cockpit of a large walking tank, similar to those from FASA's BattleTech universe.The player can walk around in a first person perspective through maze-like environments similar in technical presentation to Eye of the Beholder (the player can only walk in fixed steps of a single 3D tile). Controlling multiple different weapons the player must destroy enemy mechs before they try the same. Separate shields on the front and back of the mech must protect players from getting destroyed instantly.The player can choose between different mechs and multiple difficulty levels. A map of the level is shown at the bottom of the screen at all times, but the player can only detect the enemy when he's in radar range.

To create your end-of-year letter in Open Dental, go to Setup, Sheets. Select the Patient Letter Tx Finder Letter, Copy it to the Custom side. The sample letter includes patient-specific fields for insurance remaining, and a list of treatment planned procedures. Open the letter and edit it to suit the needs of your practice. New to editing sheets? Watch the Sheets Customization webinar.
2. Run the Treatment Finder Report
Go to Reports, Standard. Under Lists, select the Treatment Finder report. By default, patients without insurance and patients with existing appointments are excluded from this report.
Use filters to refine the results for patients treatment planned after a certain date, limit to specific clinic or providers, only show specific procedure codes, or patients with remaining benefits over a specific dollar amount. Once you've entered the criteria, click Refresh List.
3. Create End-Of-Year Letters
Option 1: Create merged letters inside Open Dental.
Once you have a list of the patients that meet the criteria you've specified, select the patients you want to create letters for, then click the Letters Preview button in the lower left of the window, and select the end-of-year letter you just customized, to create merged letters.
Option 2: Use mail merge in another program like Microsoft Word.
Export the list as a .txt or .xls file, and use that as the source for the mail merge.
Option 3: Use a standard letter for all patients and print mailing labels out of Open Dental.
Select the patients you want to create labels for, then click the Labels Preview button to view the labels before printing.
4. Print and Mail the Letter to Your Patients
Once the preview comes up for your letters or labels, just hit print, and get those letters out in the mail! For merged letters, after you print, you'll get a pop-up asking if you'd like to save the letter. Click yes to save a copy in your patient's chart.
It's truly a win-win! Your patients get the care they need and use the benefits they have available, while you fill your schedule and end the year on a high note!

|The problem is jeans are so common in wetlook as to be boring. How many gals do you see in one day wearing jeans? Ok how many gals do you see in one day wearing a really pretty dress or gown? That's my point.

In 90's, we cold see sometimes women or girls in skinny jeans or jeans-leggings, but rarely. Were they less comfortable?
Since 2010-2012, most of them wear skinny jeans and often skinny longsleeve top, depending on the season. It's wonderful; I love seeing 18-25 years old girls wearing clothes like that.
If only they could getting wet, in fountains, pools, sea,... and then, if only we could photograph or film them...

In my mind, skinny leg jeans are too much in everywhere. Because wetlook models has their own clothing and they are young, in wetlook pics is always new current young women's jeans style and it is not always good thing for every tastes.
If is 40 year old man, taste may be permanently in 90's, like my.
I like bootcut and traditional-looking jeans. Over 10 years ago, wetlook pics were mainly better than now. Because in that time young women's jeans fashion was better.
|In reply to Message (71520) What is the problem?

Why not more wetlook videos, from wetlook producer with girls in skinny jeans and longsleve top skinny too, and without jacket? What is the problem?
Like ee wetlook or theses candid videos:
In Frabce, in street, we can see a lot of girls clothed like that (but not getting wet...)

JUSTIN BIEBER has reached a major milestone on social media.
The 23 years old pop star has reached 100 million followers Twitter, becoming only the second person to do so behind Katy Perry.
Twitter marked the occasion posting a video featuring some of Bieber's most popular hashtags and wrote: 'In each other's company since Tweet number one. Congratulations @justinbieber on #100MBeliebers'
They also shared some fun facts about the star's account including that there have been over two billion mentions of 'Bieber/@JustinBieber' on the platform.
Twitter also revealed that the world 'Belieber' has been retweeted 84 million times.
While Bieber has had a love-hate relationship with photo-sharing site Instagram- deactivating his account more than once – he's been a loyal Twitter user throughout the years.
Perry, 32, meanwhile hit the milestone in June and now has 103 million followers.
Coming in third and fourth place are Taylor Swift with 85.5 million and Rihanna with 76.9 million.
Following the news Bieber retweeted Twitter's congratulatory message.
Bieber fans can apparently get a special Justin emoji if they tweet the hashtag #100MBeilebers.
Bieber's ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez is currently the most followed person on Instagram with 126 million.
On Monday fans were shocked to see her account hacked and naked pictures of Bieber posted.
The Texas-born beauty's account was taken down swiftly and secured again before being activated. – Dailymail

APSEC 2008 will bring together researchers and practitioners from industry, academia, and government to share the state of the art technology in software engineering. This years theme is Software for Dependable Systems.
This specification defines the Service Modeling Language (SML) used to model complex IT services and systems, including their structure, constraints, policies, and best practices. These models typically include information about configuration, deployment, monitoring, policy, health, capacity planning, target operating range, service level agreements, and so on. SML is based on a profile on XML Schema and Schematron.
IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Advanced Copy Services (ACS), DB2 Universal Database (UDB) Integration module provides nearly instant back-up and recovery while minimizing the impact on critical business applications that run 24x7 with increased flexibility and high reliability to meet the data protection requirements of today's businesses. These advanced data protection solutions simplify configuration and operations with increased ease of use in the inherently complex environments in which the product is designed to operate. For this complex environment, the product exploits snapshot capabilities of underlying storage subsystems, such as IBM TotalStorage Disk Storage, to provide instant back ups and reduce exposure to data loss. It reduces impact on the production environment by off-loading data movement to alternate hosts and provides a single point of control in the distributed environment for all back-up and restoration tasks to further simplify management and operations.
The IBM® Software Development Kit (SDK) for IBM Enterprise Workload Manager for Multiplatforms (EWLM) is a tool to aid in the development and test of Application Response Measurement (ARM) 4.0-level instrumentation in applications and middleware, and the development and test of EWLM ARM Adapter library implementations.
This document describes a proposal for how to represent Common Information Model (CIM)-modeled resources as Web Services Distributed Management (WSDM) Manageable Resource Web services. It describes how to represent and access the content of the CIM model using Web services, WS-Resource Framework, WS-Notification specifications, and WSDM. This draft proposal has been submitted for consideration by the Distributed Management Task Force (DFTM).
WS-Provisioning describes the APIs and schemas necessary to facilitate interoperability between provisioning systems and to allow software vendors to provide provisioning facilities in a consistent way. The specification addresses many of the problems faced by provisioning vendors in their use of existing protocols, commonly based on directory concepts, and confronts the challenges involved in provisioning Web Services described using WSDL and XML Schema.
The WS-Manageability - Specification begins by introducing the general concepts of a manageability model in terms of manageability topics, (identification, configuration, state, metrics, and relationships) and the aspects (properties, operations and events) used to define them. These abstract concepts apply to understanding and describing the manageability information and behavior of any IT resource, not just Web services. We use these concepts to organize our approach to Web services manageability.
The WS-Manageability -- Concepts document outlines the scope and definitions for the specification. It provides an overview of Web services architecture and implications for management of that architecture. The Concepts document further defines the role of the manager in the Web services architecture and provides practical information on manageability implementation patterns and discovery considerations.
The WS-Manageability -- Representation document provides the interface definitions based on the model as WSDL 1.1 and GWSDL renderings. These definitions are meant to show how the topics and aspects concepts along with concrete models can influence the development of consistent Web services interfaces for accessing the manageability information of Web services. The interfaces illustrate how the manageability model for Web services can be divided into aspects of topics that apply to all manageable resources and aspects of topics that apply only to the manageability of Web service endpoints.
The Web Services Policy Framework defines a general purpose model and corresponding syntax to describe and communicate Web services policies so that Service consumers can discover the information they need to know to be able to access services from a Service Provider.
The goal of WS-PolicyAssertions is to provide basic assertions needed to enable Web Services applications. This document specifies a set of common message policy assertions that can be specified within a policy.
The Web Services Policy Attachments specification provides a general-purpose mechanism for associating policy assertions with subjects (services). It provides for two approaches for making assertions: policy assertions defined as part of the definition of the subject, or policy assertions defined independently of and associated through an external binding to the subject.

Phillies' outfielder Marlon Byrd has whiffed plenty in his 13-year career because, well ... who hasn't? But a whiff that breaks a bat? That's uncommon.
However, on Sunday afternoon it happened. Byrd took a good cut at a fastball from Mets pitcher Jonathan Niese and his bat snapped, leaving Byrd with just the handle left in his hands. There was no contact whatsoever and it was just bizarre. Check it out:
Obviously Twitter reacted:
As for the explanation to why it actually broke? Who knows. Best guess is that it probably cracked on a previous swing and nobody noticed. We love when strange things happen on the baseball field, so for that we thank you, Byrd.

Export Administration Regulations
This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2017) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
An Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) is an alphanumeric code assigned to articles, technology and software (collectively, "items") by the United States Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security. The classification list is a slightly modified version of the list maintained by the Wassenaar Arrangement, an international regime in which member countries agree to implement export controls for "dual use" items. Dual use items are items that have potential civilian uses, as well as WMD or conventional weapons related end uses. ECCN classification is determined by referring to a table that is issued by the Bureau of Industry and Security. Since the lists are based on an international standard, the European Union regulates items using the numbering system that is very similar, and is defined in Council Regulation (EC) 388/2012. However, there are minor differences in the numbering, and the term "ECCN" is specific to the US system.[1]
The ECCN table contains hundreds of ECCN codes that are organized according to the technical parameters and/or end use of the hardware, software or technology that is being exported.
In the U.S., the Bureau of Industry and Security, a component of the United States Department of Commerce allows private industry to self-classify exported items with the exception of certain items containing encryption functionality. In the case of encryption hardware/software, the U.S. company would need to request a product classification ruling from the Bureau of Industry and Security. Although many different U.S. and foreign entities may be involved in manufacturing and distributing an item, ultimately it is the exporter or U.S. Principal Party in Interest (USPPI) that is held responsible for the correct classification of any export, and is required to ensure that all applicable export control requirements are met prior to making the export. In the event an ECCN cannot be determined by the USPPI, technical information about the article can be submitted to the Bureau of Industry and Security and the ECCN will be determined and a ruling made.
Each ECCN provides for varying degrees of export control based on the country of end use. The licensing requirement for an ECCN entry may be determined by referring to the Commerce Country Chart in Supplement No. 1 to Part 738 of the Export Administration Regulations.[2] Additionally, some ECCNs have license exceptions associated with the export restrictions—based on Low Value Shipment (LVS) or other mitigating factors. There are also restrictions that apply to certain denied parties, regardless of what would otherwise be an allowed export transaction.
An ECCN identifies the type of control(s) for the items categorized under that ECCN. For example, an ECCN may be controlled for anti-terrorism. After obtaining the ECCN, the exporter must review the Commerce Country Chart to determine whether an export license is required to export items to that country. In other words, if the ECCN is controlled for AT reasons to the country one is exporting to, an export license is required unless license exceptions apply.
Although determining an item's ECCN can be time consuming and difficult, it is a necessary step in the process of complying with current export control laws. A would-be exporter can submit a request for an official classification via the U.S. Commerce Department's Web site.
Munitions list articles and technologies fall under the jurisdiction of the Department of State and are controlled under International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). Jurisdiction for all articles and technologies must be properly determined prior to classifications being made to ensure that munitions list articles are not incorrectly classified as dual-use articles or technologies. Jurisdiction rulings can be obtained from the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) of the Department of State.
U.S. export laws are valid also for re-export of U.S. products from any country, according to stipulations in the documentation from the Bureau of Industry and Security. Normally the assigned U.S. ECCN code is valid also for re-export of U.S. origin products from most countries in the world. However, If the product is exported from the US under certain license exceptions, i.e. NLR or LVS, the Wassenaar Arrangement, do not have corresponding license exceptions. A product which can be exported from the US without an export license might well need one when re-exporting from an EU/Wassenaar country.
Also, a product exported from the U.S. under mass-market exemption being embedded into other equipment/software loses that status and it is required that product to be reclassified and exported under a separate export license.
Challenges in classification[edit]
Determining if certain products and technologies are regulated by the EAR and under which heading of the Commerce Control List (CCL) they may fall under often requires significant technical knowledge that many individuals and companies lack. Encryption regulations in Category 5 part 2 of the CCL can be particularly cumbersome for exporters as many criteria is circuitous and overly complex, often leading to analysis paralysis. Furthermore, overlapping and conflicting regulations exist between the Commerce Control List and the U.S. Munitions List.
Reform is currently underway that seeks to simplify export regulations by merging the Commerce Control List and U.S. Munitions List into a Single Control List. Additionally, regulations are being rewritten in a 'positive' manner with objective criteria, such as qualities to be measured (e.g., accuracy, speed, and wavelength), units of measure (e.g., hertz, horsepower, and microns), or other precise descriptions, rather than broad, open-ended, subjective, catch-all, or design intent-based criteria.[3]
Export-controlled items[edit]
Items on the US Munitions List are controlled by ITAR. Export Administration Regulations include the Commerce Control List,[4], which spells out what types of goods fall under which type of export control. The list has eleven categories:[5]
- 0. Nuclear & Miscellaneous
- 1. Materials, Chemicals, Microorganisms and Toxins
- 2. Materials Processing
- 3. Electronics
- 4. Computers
- 5 Part 1. Telecommunications
- 5 Part 2. Information Security
- 6. Sensors and Lasers
- 7. Navigation and Avionics
- 8. Marine
- 9. Aerospace and Propulsion
Each category has five subgroups:[5]
- A. Systems, Equipment and Components
- B. Test, Inspection and Production Equipment
- C. Material
- D. Software
- E. Technology
The category and subgroup are combined to form the first two digits of the ECCN.
Category 1 includes crude oil, which is further regulated at 15 CFR 754.2.[6] Other commodities regulated under "short supply" authority (not for national security nor foreign policy reasons) include Western red cedar harvested from public lands in the Lower 48 states, and horses intended for slaughter.[7]

English (United States)
As news consumption moves online and, increasingly, onto social media, practices of writing, reading, and engaging with journalism are undergoing notable changes. This thesis offers a qualitative analysis of how and why these changes are taking place, giving particular attention to the rise in freelancing, the buzz surrounding citizen journalism, and the social media that are increasingly controlling news distribution. Pre-digitalization, producers of mainstream journalism envisioned relatively homogenous readerships to which they spoke in neutral tones, assuming the collective voices of their specific publications. The Internet's abundance of space and capacity for speed have created a more hospitable environment for pieces of subjective journalism produced by journalists who often define themselves first by their personal brands and second by the publication(s) for which they write. Furthermore, the prevalence of information gathering and tracking online means that consumers are now seen as highly individual, with each media user targeted differently by advertisers and thus exposed to a slightly different view of the digital landscape. The result is a fragmented industry in which producers and consumers alike are subject to processes of individuation. Using the objectivity norm that has long governed journalism as a foil, this thesis argues that what is emerging today is indeed a subjectivity norm - that is, a model that emphasizes producers' and consumers' positionality and individual viewpoints. The following pages neither condemn nor celebrate these changes, but rather interrogate their implications for processes of consumption, production, and the convergence of the two.

Wed, 25 Feb 2009 17:07:59 +0000 – By Christopher CoffeyRepublican Political Strategist
President Obama gave a terrific address to the Joint Session of Congress and gets an A+ for style. He was uplifting, and he did his best to get hold of an agenda over which he was losing control. He is an incredible orator.
When it comes to substance, President Obama gets a D-. Obama truly believes that only government can deliver prosperity, even though the markets are rejecting this assessment.
President Obama has a lot of work cut out for him over the next few years. It will be a lot easier for him if he avoids the distracting battle cries of class warfare, and focuses on a workable solution for fixing our credit crisis.
"A surplus became an excuse to transfer wealth to the wealthy instead of an opportunity to invest in our future."
Obama is telling America that Bush's eponymous tax cuts are really transfers of wealth from the poor to the rich and that, worse, it hindered increased government spending ("invest" is an Obama euphemism for "spend").
Obama will have difficulty securing the cooperation of Republicans if he continues making statements like these.
First, it is deceptive. If anything, the government has been taking an increased income tax share from the wealthy. According to the Tax Foundation, the richest 5% of taxpayers paid close to 60% of all income taxes in 2006, while the bottom half paid only 2.99%. Compare this to 2000, where the richest 5% paid a 56.47% share of income taxes and the bottom half paid 3.91%.
So, there was no transfer of wealth to the wealthy. The richest 5% of taxpayers were actually paying a lower income tax share in 2000 when we had a surplus, than in 2006 when we had a deficit. Obama's assertion regarding the surplus is doubly deceptive because the tax code did nothing to hinder spending over the past eight years.
Second, this statement represents a key ideological difference between Obama and many Republicans. It tells Republicans that Obama believes private incomes are really public property. If the government takes more in taxes than it needs, and runs a surplus, the surplus will be Obama's to spend, and not his to return to the taxpayers who gave it to him.
Even worse, Obama is signaling that he will treat the tax code as a weapon of class destruction. His tax code is not a vehicle to raise revenues --it is a tool to punish and reward.
President Obama has a lot of work cut out for him over the next few years. It will be a lot easier for him if he avoids the distracting battle cries of class warfare, and focuses on a workable solution for fixing our credit crisis.

RIP | Ex-Works Ducati Desmo 1967 250cc
One of approximately 25 built (6 x 350cc, the rest 250cc), this Ducati raced in practice at the Italian GP in 1968 by Bruno Spaggiari. Six were exported to Australia in 1969. Purchased by Charles Clancy of Kinglake in the early 1970s, unfortunately this bike was destroyed along with many other classic motorbikes and cars in the 2009 fires at Kinglake. The Ducati was parked next to a 500cc Norton and this is all that remains of both bikes… You can see at the bottom of the Ducati RHS, the Norton piston is melted into the aluminium from the two bikes. Charles was one of the lucky ones–he survived and was able to save his home.

I apologize to anyone caught in last night's debacle for having promoted Gallow Green at them. I saw definite hints that the people running this game were enthusiastic, but unexperienced. Still, I had no idea they'd be *that* dumb.
It was, all things considered, not surprising that the event consisted of a single actor, in formal wear, acting strangely as we followed him (sometimes at speed) through a complex, dimly-lit space while he occasionally dropped odd little physical clues.
It *was* surprising, and extremely annoying, that this complex space was the *exterior* of the Old Lincoln School, in single-digit weather, and involved a lot of moving over unshoveled snow/ice mix. Painful, dangerous, and Not Worth It. (I pity the poor, hapless, *hat*-less actor.)
There were about a hundred people there, about half of them in masks and/or formal wear. How many of them caught the flu, I wonder?

The importance of transcriptional coordination during development
Project details
Total cost:EUR 1 500 000
EU contribution:EUR 1 500 000
Coordinated in:France
Topic(s):ERC-StG-2015 - ERC Starting Grant

Funding scheme:ERC-STG - Starting Grant
Gene expression is precisely controlled in time and space during the development of Metazoan organisms. While numerous studies have established how spatial information is integrated by gene regulatory regions, called enhancers, little is known about the temporal aspects of transcription. Most of our insights into gene regulation stem from the use of fixed preparations where timing is artificially reconstituted from different snapshots. My goal is to integrate the dynamic aspects of transcription to understand how coordination is achieved and whether it is required during development. Transcriptional coordination refers to the inter-nuclear temporal coordination in gene activation (synchrony) and homogeneity in mRNA distribution across a field of coordinately developing cells. Initially we will characterize the mechanisms of transcriptional coordination in the early Drosophila embryo, a model system which allows quantitative imaging and genetic manipulations. However the ultimate goal of the programme is to extend these analyses to later stages of development during complex tissue specification. My team will improve a newly available live imaging technique to address fundamental questions about transcriptional dynamics in a multicellular developing embryo, with three main objectives:
1-examine the effects of promoter sequence and enhancer priming on transcriptional coordination. 2-analyse the inheritance of transcriptional states from mother to daughter cells and identify the bookmarking mechanisms responsible for this memory. 3-explore the functional role of transcriptional coordination for cell fate specification during cardiogenesis.
Through the novel integration of the dynamic and quantitative aspects of transcription in a living organism, this study shall connect coordination in transcription to precision in cell specification. Thus, results from this research should have major impact on our understanding of gene regulation during normal development and disease

Bigger Energy Crop Yields Could be Boon for Biofuels
One of the big knocks on next-generation biofuels has been that you need to cover New Jersey twice over to make a dent in the transportation-fuel market.
Good news. You might only need to cover New Jersey once.
Ceres Inc., a private California company developing seeds for biofuels, says the yield per acre it's getting for switchgrass is improving. The company uses genetic mapping to find and cross breed plants with the most desirable traits to produce plants that generate more biomass.
A nationwide network of field trials showed Ceres' switchgrass produced an average of 10 tons per acre and up to 19 tons per acre. This matters because increasing yield per acre means more crops can be planted close to cellulosic ethanol refineries. Most planned biorefineries are small because size is limited by proximity to crops. Improving the yield per acre means the industry can build bigger refineries and improve economics…

Minneapolis Headed For Full Fascist Police State Display!Posted by Ed Dickau at 3:37 PM
Tell local elected officials in Minneapolis and St. Paul:Put the guns away! Freedom of speech now!
August 30, 2008 -- Today, for the first time in my life, I had guns pointed at me. One of the police officers told me over a loud-speaker: "Get out of the line of fire or we will shoot!" I can't believe the cops said they'd shoot me! In Minneapolis!
CLICK HERE to read an account of this and several other police raids and arrests that have targeted suspected anti-Republican activists in Minneapolis-St. Paul where demonstrators have gathered to protest the Republican National Convention.
Then, please call Minneapolis-St. Paul's local elected officials to ask them to put the guns away and let there be freedom of speech and peaceful assembly.
Phone numbers for elected officials:
Minneapolis Hennepin County St. Paul Ramsey County
MINNESOTA RESIDENTS ONLY: CLICK HERE to send a single email to all of the local elected officials in Minneapolis and St. Paul asking them to put their guns away and let peaceful protesters exercise our constitutionally protected rights of free speech and peaceful assembly.
[Video] Police Seize Journalists Notes About RNC Protest PlansBy Jodin Morey more at http://www.theuptake.org/ A trio of journalists who have a track record of documenting police abuse at political conventions were stopped and searched during the early morning hours in Minneapolis. ...Impeach Bush For Peace - http://impeachforpeace.org/impeach_bush_blog
Heard Around The Impeach Bush & Cheney Block
Here we are in the 21st century, but John Sidney McCain clearly has a hankering for the past. McCain talks almost incessantly about being a POW in Vietnam. His policies hue to the laissez-faire rugged individualism me first tradition of Republican reactionary politics. It's a politics that comes down to a might is right philosophy. If you've got a military, solve differences with military responses. You steer government policy to benefit corporations and the rich. You oppose freedom of choice for women.
So we have a somewhat ironic selection of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as McCain's running mate. If a woman were selected for the right reasons, I would at least give a favorable nod to McCain for that. But this is a selection that has "pandering" written all over it. Palin is virulently anti-choice, which appears to be her major appeal.
She will enthuse the evangelicals who haven't been thrilled with McCain. She believes in what Mike Malloy has called "the talking snake theory of creation."
She's anti-environment and doesn't believe human activity is causing global warming.
She's a NRA member and hunter.
Her history doesn't suggest someone who is in tune with the challenges of the 21st century. But neither does McCain's history, for that matter.
I can almost see Palin wearing bandoliers of bullets for a rifle and clutching a big hunting knife, still dripping from a fresh kill. I wonder if she churns her own butter and takes on grizzly bears bare-fisted.
This shows McCain's ultimate contempt for the American people and especially for women.
This column by Gail Collins is at http://www.nytimes.com/:
John McCain has a low opinion of the vice presidency, which he's frequently described as a job that involves attending funerals and checking on the health of the president.
(Happy 72nd birthday, John!) There's a lot we don't know yet about Palin, and I am personally looking forward to deconstructing her role in the Matanuska Maid Dairy closing crisis. But at first glance, she doesn't seem much less qualified than Tim Pawlenty, the governor of Minnesota who most people thought was the most likely pick.
Unlike Joe Lieberman, Palin is a member of the same party as the presidential candidate. And unlike Mitt Romney, she has never gone on vacation with the family dog strapped to the roof of the car.
However, I do feel kind of ticked off at the assumptions that the Republicans seem to be making about female voters. It's a tad reminiscent of the Dan Quayle selection, when the first George Bush's advisers decided they could close the gender gap with a cute running mate.
The idea that women are going to race off to vote for any candidate with the same internal plumbing is both offensive and historically wrong. When the sexes have parted company in modern elections, it's generally been because women are more likely to be Democrats, and more concerned about protecting the social safety net. "The gender gap traditionally has been determined by party preference, not by the gender of the candidate," said Ruth Mandel of the Eagleton Institute of Politics.
Mccain=Cold War Again
About all that John Sidney McCain has going for him is his record as a POW in Vietnam. Prior to getting shot down and captured, McCain dropped bombs from several thousand feet. He wasn't there on the ground to see the blood and carnage he created. That distance from blood and carnage is a part of his foreign policy. He can joke blithely, "bomb, bomb, bomb Iran" without considering all the innocent civilians who would be slaughtered. McCain is part of the whole neocon cabal that wants endless war against any perceived enemies, whether they be terrorists, Russians, or Chinese.
This article by Robert Parry is at http://www.consortiumnews.com/ :
Another casualty of McCain's endless Middle East wars, which soon could include Iran, would almost surely be America's volunteer army. Though McCain officially opposes a restoration of the draft, it is nearly impossible to envision how his multiple wars could be waged without one.
And McCain also had made clear that he favors a neo-Cold War confrontation with Moscow over another part of the neocon agenda – the encircling of Russia with pro-U.S. regimes and the placement of strategic missile systems near Russia's borders.
The fencing in of Russia fits with the goals of the neocon Project for the New American Century that envisions an endless era of U.S. military dominance that tolerates no potential rivals, whether an emerging China or a resurgent Russia. The recent Russian-Georgian conflict underscores the risks from this neocon concept.
Containing Russia in this way ultimately would require dangerous brinkmanship. And the McCain/neocon belligerence – like McCain's melodramatic declaration "we are all Georgians" – would guarantee that one of these swaggering showdowns eventually would push the world to the brink of a nuclear confrontation.
McCain The Reactionary
Nostalgia is a powerful thing. You can easily get caught up in the idea that things just aren't the way they used to be, that somehow that past was better. I will grant there are things about the past I like better.
But there are many things about the past we would not want again. We don't want the Cold War back. We don't want racial segregation back. We don't want women forced into back alley abortions. We don't want the Gilded Age, although we've been living through a version of the Gilded Age in the past eight years. John McCain represents all the bad things about the past.
We need a country without a chasm existing between the rich and poor. We need a country that uses diplomacy to solve problems and not military responses. We need a country that cares about the environment and about providing for the needs of all its citizens.
This column by Frank Rich is at http://www.nytimes.com/:
How we dig out of this quagmire is the American story that Obama must tell. It is not a story of endless conflicts abroad but a potentially inspiring tale of serious economic, educational, energy and health-care mobilization at home. We don't have the time or resources to go off on more quixotic military missions or to indulge in culture wars. (In China, they're too busy exploiting scientific advances for competitive advantage to reopen settled debates about Darwin.)
Americans must band together for change before the new century leaves us completely behind.
The Obama campaign actually has plans, however imperfect or provisional, to set us on that path; the McCain campaign offers only disposable Band-Aids typified by the "drill now" mantra that even McCain says will only have a "psychological" effect on gas prices.
Even as it points to America's future, the Obama campaign also has the duty to fill in its opponent's past. McCain's attacks on Obama have worked: in last week's Los Angeles Times-Bloomberg poll, Obama's favorable rating declined from 59 to 48 percent and his negative rating rose from 27 to 35. Yet McCain still has a lower positive rating (46 percent) and higher negative rating (38) than Obama. McCain is not nearly as popular among Americans, it turns out, as he is among his journalistic camp followers. Should voters actually get to know him, he has nowhere to go but down.

Preparing for your wedding can be an exhausting business. Often event coordinators gainesville ga, the bride is running around trying to create her dream wedding while the groom just wants to get it over with. This can be a lot of stress on a relationship before you even add mothers and mother-in-laws. A good way to keep the peace is to hire a wedding planner.
If you will be catering your own wedding, look to wholesale markets such as Sam's or Costco to buy supplies. This will enable you to save a lot of money. Think about asking friends to assist with the food costs. wedding coordinator gainesville ga
When taking photos at a wedding things can get hectic. Have a family member help the photographer out by getting all the family together when it's time to have group shots. It's a lot easier to call people by name in the case that they're not doing what they're supposed to be.
When planning for your wedding, the time of day could greatly affect your cost. If you are having an evening wedding, you will have to serve dinner which costs more than serving your guests lunch. If you serve alcohol, more people will drink heavily in the evening than they would at lunch time.

It's important to research the laws in the location you've chosen for a destination wedding before you get there. They may have a curfew, or rules about alcohol consumption, or even licenses that you need to buy for photography or alcohol sales. Check with a local wedding planner for assistance.
If you are using a wedding planner, it is important that you work with them to make the seating arrangements. You know your guests, so you know who should be seated with whom. A wedding planner is just going to randomly put people together, which could end up causing tension and stress at your wedding reception.
A wedding planner is an excellent idea if your desire to have a destination wedding. It's next to impossible to plan your wedding from home, so a planner can save you money and time by doing everything locally. They'll know all of the best vendors to use and all the ways to get a discount.
Do not let family and friends tell you how your wedding should or shouldn't be. Many times, people who are getting married let their family influence their decisions and they end up unhappy with the way their big day turned out. If you require help with your wedding, hire a wedding planner.
Let your wedding planner do all the worrying. The entire thing can be designed and organized according to your plans without causing undue strife. You've probably dreamed about your wedding for years, so let it be the best day of your life. You are the center of attention, relax, smile and enjoy it.

08/03/14 Pastor's Message
On my vacation, I decided to let our patron St. John of the Cross speak for me:
John of the Cross
"The Spiritual Canticle"
Mountains have heights and they are affluent, vast, beautiful, graceful, bright and fragrant. These mountains are what my Beloved is to me…Lonely valleys are quiet, pleasant, cool, shady, and flowing with fresh waters; in the variety of their groves and in the sweet song of the birds, they afford abundant recreation and delight to the senses, and in their solitude and silence they refresh and give rest. These valleys are what my Beloved is to me.
She lived in solitude,
And now in solitude has built her nest;
And in solitude he guides her,
He alone, who also bears
In solitude the wound of love.
