United States District Court, W.D. Wisconsin
November 10, 2016
LINDA BERNARD, Plaintiff,v.WOODSIDE RANCH, LLC; PHILADELPHIA INDEMNITY INSURANCE COMPANY; and BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELD OF MICHIGAN, [1] Defendants.
STEPHEN L. CROCKER Magistrate Judge
On June
27, 2016, defendants filed a notice of removal in this civil
diversity action for breach of contract that plaintiff Linda
Bernard commenced in the Circuit Court for Juneau County,
Wisconsin. Dkt. 1. The first question in any lawsuit is
whether the court has subject matter jurisdiction, and the
court has an independent obligation to ensure that it exists.
Arbaugh v. Y & H Corporation, 546 U.S. 500, 501
(2006); Avila v. Pappas, 591 F.3d 552, 553
(7th Cir. 2010). As the party seeking to invoke
federal diversity jurisdiction, defendants bear the burden of
demonstrating that the complete diversity and amount in
controversy requirements in 28 U.S.C. § 1332(a) are met.
Appert v. Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, Inc., 673 F.3d
609, 617 (7th Cir. 2012); Chase v. Shop 'N Save
Warehouse Foods, Inc., 110 F.3d 424, 427 (7th Cir.
1997). A review of the notice of removal reveals that
defendants' allegations regarding the court's
diversity jurisdiction are inadequate in at least three
§ 1332 requires complete diversity of citizenship,
meaning that no plaintiff may be a citizen of the same state
as any defendant. McCready v. EBay, Inc., 453 F.3d
882, 891 (7th Cir. 2006); Krueger v.
Cartwright, 996 F.2d 928, 931 (7th Cir.1993)
("Under the rule of complete diversity, if there are
residents of the same state on both sides of a lawsuit, the
suit cannot be maintained under the diversity jurisdiction
even when there is also a nonresident party."). Because
defendants (and the state court complaint) allege that
plaintiff Bernard and defendant Blue Cross Blue Shield are
both citizens of Michigan, it appears that complete diversity
of citizenship does not exist in this case.
neither defendants' notice of removal nor plaintiff's
state court complaint contain any allegations suggesting that
the amount in controversy in this case will exceed the
statutory minimum of $75, 000. Plaintiff did not place a
value on her claim and defendants have not explained why they
believe that there is a reasonable probability that the
amount in controversy exceeded $75, 000 at the time of
removal. Chase, 110 F.3d at 427 (To meet the amount
in controversy requirement in a removal case, "our
circuit requires the defendant to offer evidence which proves
'to a reasonable probability that jurisdiction
exists.'"); In re Shell Oil Co., 970 F.2d
355, 356 (7th Cir. 1992) (in determining whether
amount in controversy exceeds minimum, court looks to facts
at time of removal).
even if defendants can overcome the above two hurdles, they
have failed to allege the proper citizenship of defendant
Woodside Ranch, LLC. The notice of removal identifies
Woodside as having "a principal office located in
Northridge, California." Dkt. 1 at 3. However,
"an LLC's jurisdictional statement must identify
the citizenship of each of its members as of the date the
complaint or notice of removal was filed, and, if those
members have members, the citizenship of those members as
well." Thomas v. Guardsmark, LLC, 487 F.3d
531, 534 (7th Cir. 2007) (citations omitted).
Defendants have failed to identify the members of the LLC or
their citizenship.
IT IS ORDERED that defendants have until December 3, 2016 to
show cause why this case should not be remanded to the
Circuit Court for Juneau County, Wisconsin for lack of
federal subject matter jurisdiction. 28 U.S.C. § 1447(c)
("If at any time before final judgment it appears that
the district court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the
case shall be remanded."). Plaintiff has until December
17, 2016 to respond. In complying with this order, the
parties should keep in mind that for the purpose of diversity
jurisdiction, the citizenship and not the residency of a
party is what matters for diversity jurisdiction purposes.
Craig v. Ontario Corp., 543 F.3d 872, 876
(7th Cir. 2008); Meyerson v. Harrah's East
Chicago Casino, 299 F .3d 616, 617 (7th Cir.
2002). An individual is a citizen of the state in which he is
domiciled, that is, where he has a "permanent home and
principal establishment, and to which [he] has the intention
of returning whenever he is absent therefrom." Charles
Alan Wright, Law of Federal Courts 161
(5th ed. 1994); see also Dakuras v.
Edwards, 312 F.3d 256, 258 (7th Cir. 2002).
Further, corporations are citizens of the states in which
they are incorporated and have their principal place of
business. 28 U.S.C. § 1332(c)(1); Metropolitan Life
Ins. Co. v. Estate of Cammon, 929 F.2d 1220, 1223
(7th Cir. 1991)).

dismissal of defendant U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid

Bit the bullet and reduced my speed bench press weight to 60% of my 1RM. Actually I dropped it to 245 which is more like 64%, but whatever. I'll do 60% for 5x5 for 5 weeks, then move up to 70% for 4 sets x 5 for 5 weeks and finally 80%, 3 sets of 5 for 5 weeks. Something like what I do for the squat.
Speed bench press 245 lbs. 5x5 - these moved very fast.
High row machine 4s x 8
Pulldowns 3s x 8
DB flyes 3s x 8
DB tricep extensions 3s x 8
Cheat lat raises 3s x 8

In honour of the 5th Anniversary of Woei 'Patta's et Pret a Porter', Woei and Asics have come together to take on the Gel Lyte III, the most popular sneaker in the Asics lifestyle range.
To spice things up a little bit, they did some remodelling on the shoe, replacing the standard upper eyelets with metal trail hooks, adding to the feel of the great European outdoors. Finishing touches include zig-zag stitching on the toebox, and a little pop of 3M here and there, to add something special to this all new color palette.

There's a swim team poster on the wall of my Y that catches my eye each time I go into the locker room. Yet, until this week I've never really read it. It's a list of tips for swim team members having difficulty with their stroke. Slow down, count, and focus on the fundamentals. In other words, go back to the basics.
After a long hard swim, I tend to zone out, particularly when a waterfall of hot water is beating down on me. My mind meanders and I blindly follow it, usually right to my story. This day was no exception, except, hmm….those swimming tips were swimming around in there, too…maybe I could apply them to writing. Not the counting part, of course (I could count words, I guess), but the slow down, step back, and focus on the basics part.
So what's the most basic thing I learned at McD? Get words on paper. Our teacher dished out that piece of advice in a variety of ways ad nauseam:
- The first draft is the discovery draft.
- You can't fix it if it doesn't exist.
- It's all fixable once you get it on paper.
- Don't stop to edit, keep going.
No, we (I) said (whined), what I've got on paper is crap. It's embarrassing. It sucks. I'll fix it now, and then I'll move on. She nodded wisely (more like she rolled her eyes in resignation), a touch of sympathy (disgust) in her eyes. She knew we'd ignore her advice and shoot for perfect on the first draft, probably because that's what she did when she started out, too.
Now here I am, a year+ months past the completion of the McD program, and that basic lesson is finally sinking in. I never wrote the discovery draft because I'd gone right for perfection from the start. We learned so many (cool) new writing concepts at McD and I was eager to strut my stuff. I started reworking scenes. Made sure each one had conflict. Identified the protag and antag and their respective goals. Looked at whether the scene did more than one thing. Did it move the story forward? That's a crapload of stuff right there and it's the tip of the iceberg. Needless to say, I went into revision mode before I had the story–the whole story–down on paper.
Then early this week I spent almost four hours editing one scene and completely rewriting another. Four hours and no new words. Still, I was happy. The writing felt good (enjoyable!) and I'd strengthened both scenes as well as added a new dimension to my story. Plus, those scenes were practically perfect. And I was back in the saddle. Yay for me.
Except those scenes were anything but perfect (I realized the next morning). There's a lot of gabbing going on, a lot of thoughts and feelings and narrative about what happened (off stage) in the previous scene. In other words, I had a scene that described action I never showed. And that's not the first time I've done something like that (writing action scenes is hard!).
But it's all good. It turns out that I soaked up all that great McD advice, and stored it somewhere in my head. Writing that talky scene wasn't a waste. It got the juices going, and I now have an outline of where my story is headed. Best of all, these "talky" scenes make it obvious to me what I need to show (the action!). So I'll rewrite that scene and those like it (after my first draft is complete) and put my reader into the action.
Here's the best lesson of all. I now see the value of the discovery draft. I'll get the next scene on paper, and the next, and the next. Yeah, I'm going to write a bunch stuff that might not get used in the story, but that's fine, because those scenes are going to point the way home. I'll know what my story is about and I'll know how to fix it when I start revisions.
So, it's back to the basics for me. It's a little late (one year and counting) but I'm finally going to go into discovery draft mode as I write Act III & IV of my book. After that I'm confident that everything will fall into place.
What's the best writing advice you've ever ignored?

Saturday we had a fun filled day in Minneapolis. My Uncle Jeff's family all lives in Minnesota and his Mom, aka Nana Monie, lives just right in Minneapolis. So we all had lunch at their home and had a great visit. We talked about what other sites we should see in Minnesota while we are here, The Knights/Aunt Ali and Uncle Jeff/Cousin Olivia and Cooper, and of course Parker. Monie and Keith loved Parker and we really enjoyed their company.
After lunch we headed downtown for our first Twins game and Parker's first baseball game. We went to a few Irish pubs before the game and enjoyed the great weather. Target field was awesome...we had seats down the first base side. Parker slept for about 20 minutes the whole time we were there...everytime we got an out he would wake due to the cheering. We had to take a few breaks to nurse and feed him cereal, but otherwise he was a trooper and lasted the whole game!! The Twins ended up losing the game, but we had great family time and we can check it off of our list of MN things-to-do.

Bagneres-de-Luchon, also known as Luchon is a spa town in south western France. The town is situated in a beautiful valley at the foot of the central Pyrenees. Luchon is a fashionable resort celebrated for it's thermal springs. One of the finest promenades (in our view) outside of Paris is the Allees d'Etigny, an avenue planted with lime trees.
We were lucky enough to spend a very pleasant week here recently. Without any responsibilities we took full advantage of the opportunity to relax and we spent our time reading, walking and enjoying the fabulous countryside and scenery.
One of the local walks we did took us high into the hills where we had panoramic views of Luchon.
Whilst we didn't ski on this occasion the snow was still good enough even in late March and our visit to the ski station at Superbagneres afforded us yet more great views of the surrounding mountain peaks, river and valley below. We even caught a glimpse of an eagle as it soared on the thermes foraging for food.
Our accommodation for the duration of our stay in Luchon was at a fabulous apartment, perfectly located for exploring the local area. www.luchonlocation.com

The Jewish religion, from which Christianity originated (Christians believe Jesus is the fulfillment of the Jewish messianic prophecies and the prophesied Savior from Isaiah 53 and other passages) was primarily a communal relationship with the Lord God (Jehovah). You were born into it, and you were considered a part of that community which had a special relationship with the Creator of the universe. Individuals did not choose to be part of that community – they were part of it by virtue of their birth.
Christianity, on the other hand, is not something you are born into in the same was as you are born a Jew. You may be born into a Christian home, but that doesn't necessarily make you a Christian in the sense that you consider Jesus is your Lord and Savior (Jesus is your Lord when you have surrendered your will to his, following his guidance for your life and not your own. He is your Savior when you have trusted him for your eternal destiny). Many "Christians" are cultural Christians – born into a Christian household but have little more than a vague faith in God and little or no church involvement.
In Christianity (unlike Judaism), you choose consciously to be a devout follower of Jesus Christ. This can happen at your baptism (believer's or adult baptism), at your confirmation, at your coming forward in answer to an "altar call", or even in private (although eventually you should make a public confession of your faith). I believe that if you haven't consciously made that decision, then you are a cultural Christian, not a devout follower of Jesus Christ.
Unfortunately, people today seem to forget that Christianity, similar to Judaism, is also a corporate or communal faith. We may make individual decisions regarding belief in Jesus, but once we have committed our lives to Christ, we have become part of a worldwide community of believers called "The Church." The Church isn't just a building, a hierarchy, the clergy, bishops, the pope, or an organization, but it is the community of believers throughout the world. Over the centuries we have created a Church of buildings, hierarchies, the clergy, bishops, the pope, and organizations, but those aren't the heart of The Church. The heart of The Church is you and me, the people.
God created us to be social, and Jesus wants his people to be in fellowship with one another for mutual encouragement, for training, for worship, for ministry and mission, and to enjoy one another's company. In the first couple of centuries of Christianity, what we call Holy Communion consisted of the Love Feast in which the Christians gathered together for a full meal at which the Last Supper was remembered by the breaking of bread and the drinking of the cup. Fellowship and socialization have been a part of the Christian faith since earliest times when groups met in people's houses for the Love Feast and informal and spontaneous worship together.
Therefore, I encourage you to become part of a church. There should be no "Lone Ranger Christians" out there, but all should gather together at least weekly for worship, training, fellowship, and ministry.

Isn't it funny that the House Republican caucus can fairly nonchalantly impose a 2% tax increase on working Americans but talk about a 3.8% increase on the highest income earners and you're simply unAmerican, a socialist, nazi, communist (what other terms do they throw out there?) Is hypocrisy... More
The House Republicans like to combine unrelated issues together like the oil pipeline being combined with the payroll tax. This is underhanded and crooked. That is why the GOP is failing the American public. People are starting to see through their Games.

Amazing what you get when you put money and looniness together. And I don't mean Stephen.
To get to Ickworth, we had to do a bit of a cross country walk. Given how unfit Alice, Stephen, Lauren and I are, and how many bits of Suffolk we had to cut across, this was a bit of a mission. There were turnip fields. There were wrong turnings. There were black-faced sheep. There were sore legs. There were pheasants bursting from the bushes. There were cow pats. There was the old lady with the vacant smile. And there was the mental institution, where four lost Kiwis carrying an assortment of packs and sticks fitted in quite well.

It was a great weekend - fireworks, a really cool little museum where you could see a lock of Mary Tudor's hair, a restaurant with very tasty French wine, a huge ruined abbey and bed and breakfast in a house dating back to Anne Boleyn's time. History, food, drink, fireworks, exercise and turnips. What more could you want from a weekend in the country?

Fighting Back
Women head to college armed with self-defense skills
Wes Smith
September 3, 2007
Jeff Moldovan (left) and Instructor Susan Saddler demonstrate a gun disarming technique at a Basic Weapons Disarming class at Fighting Chance Combat Systems. (Jacob Langston, Orlando Sentinel / August 24, 2007)
Jennifer Woodbury of Orlando sent her daughter Abby off to college with the usual boxes of clothes, dorm decorations and snacks.
But Abby, 18, also headed for campus packing a punch, not to mention an eye gouge and a throat jab.
Concerned about reports of date rapes, carjackings and assaults on young women everywhere, her mother signed Abby up for a no-nonsense back-to-school special: Self-Defense 101.
Abby and a group of friends from Lake Highland Preparatory School learned their ABCDEs -- "Attack him. Blind him. Choke him. Drop him. Escape." -- in the college-prep course at Fighting Chance Combat Systems.
This unique martial-arts school on North Orange Blossom Trail charges $250 for a two-day, 10-hour course that teaches women methods for escaping armed assailants.
Self-Defense 101 trains students to handle attack scenarios including attempted date rape, parking-lot and dorm-room attacks, bar and club assaults, carjackings and muggings at ATMs. Additional training includes techniques for profiling potential date rapists and precautionary measures to avoid being drugged, stalked or abducted.
"Abby is going to be on her own for the first time, and there are criminals out there, so I definitely feel better sending her off with these skills," said Woodbury, who may join other Lake Highland mothers in taking the course.
They were led to Fighting Chance by Mary Ann Gruenberg of Winter Park, who sought a self-defense program for her daughter Katherine, 18, after seeing news footage on the abduction of Kelsey Smith. The Kansas teenager was slain after being kidnapped in a Target parking lot in June.
"It struck me that as she walked out of that Target she looked just like our Lake Highland girls," Gruenberg said.
Close combat
Some studies have claimed that up to 25 percent of female college students are sexually assaulted, even though most experts agree that at least half of sexual assaults go unreported.
Law-enforcement professionals traditionally have advised women to cooperate with attackers and hope for the best rather than try to fight them, said Jeannette Emert, crime-prevention officer at the University of Central Florida.
But Emert, a 22-year veteran, no longer shares that traditional thinking.
"From what I see nowadays, being cooperative doesn't pay off; people are shot and killed anyway," Emert said.
"Someone with specialized martial-arts training has tools," she said. "I believe you should practice using those tools, follow your gut instincts, and use them if needed."
All martial-arts programs offer self-defense training, but few have close-combat-disarmament courses taught in scenarios and settings specifically for women, said Fighting Chance founder Jeff Moldovan, 54, a veteran movie stuntman, bodyguard and martial artist with advanced skills in Dragon Fist kung fu and ninjitsu.
But Moldovan warns that students in his program must show no mercy to the bad guys.
"I have no compassion for predators. If one attacks you, there is a 98 percent chance of survival in the first 2.5 heartbeats. Women can't get into a long struggle with a stronger, heavier opponent," he said. "They have to be quick and lethal, going for the eyes, throat and nose."
'Snake trap'
Moldovan and his partners -- fellow martial artists Susan Saddler, 34, and Robyn Graham, 23 -- developed six basic techniques for their class. Each is designed first to quickly disarm and immobilize attackers by inflicting pain or disrupting their breathing. The goal is to seize control of a weapon and get out of harm's way.
The methods -- with intriguing names such as "snake trap" and "dishrag"-- are borrowed and refined from a wide range of martial arts. They rely on leverage, "fluid strength" and speed rather than muscle, which makes them especially useful to young women -- even those who are not naturally aggressive, Moldovan said.
Not so helpless
"I've had students ages 14 to 74, and women find that they are not as helpless as they think they are in these situations," he said. "It is physics and anatomy, not extraordinary strength. But some have a hard time understanding that until they try."
Katelyn Van Allen, 18, refused to come downstairs when her mother, Anne, invited Moldovan to their Lake County home for an introduction to Self-Defense 101.
"I did not want to do it at all; it seemed stupid," she said. "I thought that I could just carry pepper spray, and I'd be fine. But our mothers forced us to go to the class."
Shy, reluctant Katelyn turned out to be one of Moldovan's prized pupils -- and nobody to mess with.
"At first, I was worried that some things seemed a little violent, but they explained that someone who is trying to harm you deserves what he gets," she said.
Her mother could not be prouder -- or more relieved.
"She came out of her shell. She even busted a trainer's lip," said Anne Van Allen, who believes Self-Defense 101 should be mandatory in schools.
"There is so much craziness out there," she said. "I don't want my kids to be victims."
HankT wrote:on a long, long road. But at least it's progress in a good direction.At least it's another step in the right direction...
If you are unarmed, and attacked by someone who is armed, bear in mind that the quaint ABCDE mnemonic might more accurately represent:
Attack assailant;
get your ass Beaten;
Cry for help;
Die in a pool of your own blood;
Expect people to talk nonsense about what you should have done differently (short of going armed and being able to provide meaningful resistance).
Though, aren't the majority of sexual assaults by someone who the woman trusts, and thus would leave a very small window for self-defense? As I understand it, getting attacked and raped in a dark alley is more the exception than the norm in sexual assaults.
HankT wrote:Agree with you, except for the age 21 part. There is no legitimate basis for effectively banning firearm carry for the 18-20 crowd in most states, even in fairly gun-friendly states like here in PA. If one is expected to be a productive member of society, living by oneself after becoming an "adult" at age 18, there is no reason that a person in that age range should be denied the right to armed self-defense. How can the government get away with treating me like an adult by forcing me to register for the draft (not that I have anything against registering for the draft), yet deny me the ability to walk off of my property able to protect myself? It just makes no sense to me that so many people can be consummately denied the human right of self-defense.But no mention of using a firearm, or any weapon for PD. Odd. Frankly, I think that more women over 21 should betraining with and carrying a firearm. Would changealmost everything....
Er, sorry for the rant, but it just seems like the legalization of handgun purchasing and carry for 18-20 year olds is one of the most ignored issues regarding 2nd amendment rights.
The picture brings up a salient question that I'm sure the instructors would rather not answer: The woman being attacked gets control of the attacker's gun. What she supposed to do next? If she knows how to use the firearm, that opens upmore options. Otherwise, it's at best a club, or she has to throw it far away from the site, or else risk having the attacker regain control of it.
Well, if the image on her shirt is any indication, she would throw it.
Don't you know? Guns are bad...

The Blue and Blacks let slip a comfortable 26-points lead after only half-an-hour's play at the Brewery Field.
Early tries by Richard Jones, Robin Sowden-Taylor and Nick Hampson, all converted by Gareth McCarthy, had seemingly established a match-winning position.
When Ryan Price added a fourth touchdown Bridgend's fate appeared sealed. But the Ravens hit back in an exciting, if error-strewn encounter. Before half time they had recouped 15 points courtesy of tries by Matt Jeffrey and Austin Howells, who converted one and kicked a penalty goal.
With turnovers riddling the Blue and Blacks momentum, the tide turned completely in the second period. Further unconverted tries by Anthony Carter and Gareth Leonard reduced the Ravens' deficit to a single point,
Blue and Blacks' misery was complete when Howells put his side ahead with another penalty goal and then converted a try by Jonathan Rimmer seven minutes from full time

After Telling FS1's Kristine Leahy to 'Stay In Your Lane'; LaVar Ball is Now Selling It As a Shirt For $60
In the wake of her confrontation with LaVar Ball, FS1's Kristine Leahy stated she was receiving death threats. It all stemmed from her implying that LaVar abused his sons and that Lonzo was a 'robot'.
Here's the confrontation:
"Leahy asked Ball how many of pairs of Lonzo Ball's signature shoes the Big Baller Brand had sold
"Stay in your lane," Ball responded, while putting his hand up toward Leahy and turning to Cowherd. "I don't even worry about her over there."
"I don't look over there because she scares me. Leave me alone. I'll tell you, 400, 500 pairs."
Leahy again tried to engage.
"My problem with you is that you are a hater," he continued. Then, "I would never wear a Big Baller shirt. Well, good don't even talk to me."
The 'Stay in your lane' part got so much airplay that LaVar Ball decided to try and profit off of it, as he took to Twitter on Wednesday and dropped his newest shirts on 'Big Baller Brand'.
"STAY IN YO LANE!" Go to https://t.co/hqvuv4wISG to purchase pic.twitter.com/kmEEG3eTwd

STAY IN YO LANE. . . https://t.co/nZrRJLA4gdpic.twitter.com/BE4kRHYGr6 — Big Baller Brand (@bigballerbrand) May 25, 2017
It'll cost you upwards of $60.

Speed Racer is an upcoming 2008 film that is a live action film adaptation of the 1960s Japanese animated series Speed Racer.
Speed Racer (Emile Hirsch) is a young man with natural racing instincts whose goal is to win The Crucible, a cross-country car racing rally that took the life of his older brother, Rex Racer (Scott Porter). Speed is loyal to the family business, run by his parents Pops (John Goodman) and Mom (Susan Sarandon). Pops designed Speed's car, the Mach 5. The owner of Royalton Industries (Roger Allam) makes Speed a lucrative offer, but Speed rejects the offer, angering the owner. Speed also uncovers a secret that top corporate interests, including Royalton, are fixing races and cheating to gain profit. With the offer to Speed denied, Royalton wants to ensure that Speed will not win races. Speed finds support from his parents and his girlfriend Trixie (Christina Ricci) and enters The Crucible in a partnership with his one-time rival, Racer X (Matthew Fox), seeking to rescue his family's business and the racing sport itself.
Comes Out on May 9th
My Q: When this movie comes out, will you go to the theaters to see it?
Since this is a live action adaptation, it shouldn't be in the anime section
plus, its a duplicate

text: How do they do it? For some reason (besides the olive oil) the fried potatoes I had in Greece and Italy this summer were absolutely wonderful. What else do they do or add to the oil? When I got home I tried slicing up the potatoes, salted them, and cooked them in the extra virgin olive oil I brought back from Italy. They tasted okay, but mostly like the olive oil. Should I cook them over higher heat? Slower? Faster? Please HELP.

Wow. A care-o-meter. NaturalBl0g is sooooo original.
Well Beany,
I'm not one to shy away from bashing on Natty B, but today he has satisfied his mission statement of being funny at least once a day.
k-don - I agree. It's hysterical. But.....ask him where he stole...I mean got....the idea for an o-meter.
I guess you could say I fulfilled both my missions today: quotidian funniness, plus the theft of copywritten material.
Good thing the care-o-meter has Pi on it.

With uncommon strength and pulling power, this brute will earn its keep by working like a draft horse. It'll pull big trailers and tote heavy loads without complaint. Pickups such as this Super Duty F-350 SRW King Ranch are the Clydesdales of the automotive business.
Just because the Super Duty models are beasts of burden doesn't mean the interiors are all vinyl and steel. Modern conveniences and technology are all here. Our four-door King Ranch sports a host of convenience features! Leather upholstery, heated seats, a moonroof, 4WD, and plenty of room inside for your crew or your family, and your gear!
The engine is the heart and soul of a heavy-duty pickup truck. This one is powered by a beefy 6.0-liter V8 diesel engine that pounds out 325 horsepower and an incredible 550 foot-pounds of torque. It's mated to a five-speed automatic transmission that features higher first- and second-gear ratios to launch a truck loaded with cargo more quickly and smoothly. If towing or hard work is your gig, this diesel is the answer. Not only is the torque output substantial, it cranks it right off idle. Believe me, this thing can pull down your house. Get it on the highway, though, and it accelerates as smoothly and quickly as a gasoline-engined truck and gets better mileage.
If you've been shopping for a Super Duty, you know trucks like this go fast! He who hesitates misses out on the opportunity to own this F-350! Print this page and call us Now... We Know You Will Enjoy Your Test Drive Towards Ownership!

These pages have been up and running for almost two years now. Mighty incredible, this journey has been.
I have about 70-something days left here in the novitiate. Final evaluations are looming on the horizon. Preparations for first profession -- provided the final evaluation goes well -- are beginning to grind into gear.
It's funny, with all the preparation for the marathon, our trip to Detroit and general spring insanity, I've fallen well behind in just about everything. I'm hoping to use this weekend to catch up on crossword puzzles, Times Op-Ed pages, baseball news and emails.
In the meantime, the temperatues are going to reach into the 80s here today and there is a hazardous waste pick-up tomorrow in the area. How these two items are related, I have no idea. They just seemed to round out an otherwise scattered post.
Until then...

still buried in, reading all my past december posts. amazing stuff. i guess december and september will always be my favorite months. september has always been about the beginning of everything. i have always kept the important decisions to be made and walked in this month. important events, junctures faced, journeys started and ended in september. i was born in september.
december in the other hand is a magical. schools holidays are always the best in december. the greatest adventures in growing up happened then, the travels to faraway relative's, the hiking and camping with my school scouts troop and the eventual december breaks at universities that fast signaled my unwillingness to return home for holidays anymore. decembers was when the past crumbled slowly, making way to clean slates, to the stronger self.
december was also when love was found and lost.

Paris court delays extradition hearing of Georgia's OkruashviliThe extradition hearing of former defense minister Irakly Okruashvili that began on Wednesday at an appeal court in Paris has been postponed until June 11.
Last month the Tbilisi City Court sentenced Okruashvili, who is currently in France awaiting a political asylum decision, to 11 years in prison for taking bribes and Georgia has made an extradition request to French authorities.
If the court eventually rules against extraditing Okruashvili to Georgia, it will have to hold another hearing in several weeks to decide whether to grant him political asylum in France.
Last September, Okruashvili accused his former ally President Mikheil Saakashvili on TV of lobbying to line his family's pockets with commercial deals, plotting to seize Georgia's breakaway republic of South Ossetia and ordering the killing of businessman Badri Patarkatsishvili.
Georgian prosecutors arrested and charged Okruashvili with abuse of office, money laundering and corruption. He was consequently tried in absentia and sentenced to 11 years in prison.
Okruashvili fled to Germany and was subsequently extradited to France last year where he was arrested in November at the request of Georgian authorities.
A Paris court released the former minister on bail January 30.
Okruashvili said in early March that he would head the candidate list of his Movement for United Georgia, an opposition party, at Georgia's parliamentary polls in May.

For those of you who do not know who Michael Lau is, he is a very popular figure designer in Hong Kong. He currently designs a
few figure lines for his own company, Crazy Smiles as well as exclusive figures for hip-hop bands in Hong Kong (i.e. Lazy Muthafuckas).
His latest creation is the "Crazy Children" figure line which depicts "hip-hop" children 6" figures that are really unique and are on the
cutting edge. These figures usually come with a few inter-changeable accessories like sneakers and caps.
I recently picked up the first of the Crazy Children, Fatback. Fatback is approximately 5 1/2" in height and is completely made of vinyl.
He comes with 2 pairs of shoes, two caps, a sticker, and a bonus gift. This little guy even has 5 points of articulation, but the purpose of
these figures are mainly for display purposes since they cost roughly $100 each. If you are thinking about picking one up for yourself,
it's a pretty cool figure and there are only 1000 pcs. produced, giving it collectible value. On top of this they can only be found in the
Asian markets and through online retailers.
As for detail and production quality, I have to say that the figure was nicely produced and their attention to detail and painting has
high quality control. Feel free to take a look at the pictures below, sorry they are not the greatest but I wasn't willing to break open the packaging.

Trial and Conviction of a
Baptist Minister
Baptist Minister
for Murder—His Suicide
The North State Whig, of the 30th ult., published at Wilmington, North Carolina, publishes a condensed report of the trial of Rev. GEORGE W. CARAWAN, for the murder of Mr. C. H. LASSITER, a school-teacher, in Hyde County. The whole case is remarkable, on account of the status of the accused, the depravity developed, and the tragical issue of the trial. Eminent counsel were arrayed for both the prosecution and the defence, and much excitement prevailed during the proceedings. The paper before us gives the following particulars:
Carawan is a56 years old, and for many years has been a popular preacher in the Baptist Church—a man of strong will, exercising a powerful influence over his friends, and feared as much as hated by his foes. Lassiter was a quiet young man, engaged in the business of teaching. Some months before the murder Lassiter boarded in the house of Carawan, and a quarrel arose between them, Carawan alleging that Lassiter was too familiar with his (C.'s) wife. Carawan talked very freely among his neighbors n the subject—said that L. ought to be shot—that shooting was too good for him, and that he and L. could not live in the same neighborhood, &c., &c., and finally tried to get out a peace warrant against L., alleging that he had attempted to take his life. He went on this way for some time, when L. sued him for slander, laying the damages at $2,000. A few hours after the writ was served on C., Lassiter was killed.
He [Lassiter] had finished a school on Rose Bay, and on Monday, the 15th of November, 1852, started on foot, with a carpet-bag in his hand to go to the Lake [Mattamuskeet] where he had engaged another school. About 3 o'clock, P.M., he passed C.'s house on his way to the Lake. Shortly after he passed, C. left his house and went across the field toward the woods which lie between the house and the spot on the road where L. was killed, his wife following with a gun wrapped up in her apron. She returned to the house immediately; Carawan not till sundown. That night he was absent from home.
Tuesday he remained at home; but on Wednesday, a rainy day, he took a hoe and went into the woods, and was gone for several hours. On Thursday, before L. was missed, (the people on the Lake thinking he was at the Bay, and the people on the Bay thinking he was at the Lake,) C. went to one of the neighbors, and inquired if he had seen anything of L., stating that his (C.'s) family had seen him pass his house on Monday with a package of clothes, and he was thinking he had run away. On Friday evening, when told that the people were searching for L. he expressed great surprise that he should be missing—never had heard anything of it.
On Saturday morning, the search for L. still going on, he wrote to a friend to come and see him—that L. was missing—supposed to be killed—and added that he (C.) was at home all day Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and that he could prove it by Carawan Sawyer, (the main witness on the trial for the State,) his nephew, a boy who was living with him. The body of L. was found on Saturday evening in the swamps behind C.'s house, in an open lot, which was surrounded with briars, underbush, &c., and covered with moss. The moss over the grave had been carefully removed, the grave dug just large enough to hold the body, the body pressed into it, the grave filled up even with the surrounding earth, and pressed down, and the moss carefully laid back up in it. The moss leaving no trace of a foot-print, there was no sign that anybody had ever been there, except that the moss over the grave had faded a little; about a handful of fresh dirt was near it; and a dead limb of a tree had apparently been recently disturbed, the bark which had evidently just fallen from it lying in one spot and the limb in another. The men who were searching for the body had stopped in this lonely spot to rest, having given up the search for the day, when these appearances attracted their attention, and the body was found.
L. was killed by gunshot wounds. Several shots were taken from the body—three from the heart. There were three sizes of shot found in the body, and in one of the barrels of C.'s gun, found in his house, just such shot, and of three sizes, were found. That night C. left Hyde County, telling his nephew, (Sawyer,) that if he staid there he should be hung; and that he should send for his family, and he (S.) must go with them. On Sunday morning he landed from a canoe at Durham's Creek mills, in Beaufort County, about twenty miles from his home, telling the man who rowed him over that he was after a piece of land which another man was trying to buy, and that was the reason of his hurry, and charging him to keep his movements a secret.
From this time till his [Carawan's] arrest at night in his house in January following, the State did not know his where-abouts. But from letters received by the sheriff of Hyde, from Tennessee, it seems he had been sin that State, preaching, under the assumed name of John Forbes.
After his imprisonment in Hyde County Jail, he [Carawan] tried to get a friend to hire the witness Sawyer to go away. He had offered this same witness, before the body of L. was found, a negro, if he would swear that he (C.) was at home all Monday, the day on which the murder was committed. And while in Hyde County Jail he wrote to a friend (the letters were produced in Court,) to get Sawyer out of the way. He had given, he said in one of his letters, Mary (his wife) $500 to get Sawyer off; if that wouldn't do, give him $1,000; and if that wouldn't do, he (his friend) must get rid of Sawyer "by hook or by crook," and not suffer his (C.'s) neck to be broke.
The defence set up for the prisoner was that three of the witnesses (including Sawyer) had sworn falsely, committed willful and deliberate perjury, and that it was impossible for Carawan to have gone through the woods after Lassiter passed his house quick enough to have cut him off.
The Jury, after a protracted sitting, brought in a verdict of guilty, and the Judge ordered a recess of the Court for an hour. As the crowd was leaving, the prisoner suddenly drew two pistols, one of which he fired at Mr. Warren, the counsel for the State, and with the other shot himself through the head, killing himself instantly. The ball of the other struck Mr. Warren on the breast, just above the heart, but fortunately glanced off, and left only a slight wound. The North Star Whig says:
"Carawan maintained his self-control throughout the trial. He was as fine a looking man as one would find among a thousand—tall, admirably built, with a massive head, showing, with enormous animal passions, large intellect. These passions have destroyed him, he having given himself all his life to their unbridled sway. His wife, apparently about his own age, and his children, have been with him during the trial, accompanying him to and from the Court-House and Jail."
This article was published in The New York Times, December 5, 1853
The story of George Washington Carawan was also published in Dead and Gone: Classic Crimes in North Carolina by Manly Wade Wellman, 1954. The story of the crime and the trial with all the details were printed in The North Carolina Tragedy in 1853. This book can be found at

Just before the new year, after months of reading about The High Line, I decided to visit this new public park in New York. The image accompanying this post is the first of several I hope to post from that afternoon over the next several days.
For the benefit of those completely unfamiliar with the city's geography, and even those who may have been away for a while and therefore not aware of what has been going on for the last several years in this part of the city, a few words of explanation might be in order:
The High Line is the remnant of a freight line elevated above the streets of a portion of Manhattan's West Side. In 1929, following nearly eight decades of collisions between freight trains and street-level traffic, the City and State of New York agreed, with the New York Central Railroad, on the West Side Improvement Project, which eliminated street-level railroad crossings.
As a result of the agreement, the High Line opened five years later, lifting freight traffic 30 feet in the air while traversing the center of blocks rather than across avenues—thus avoiding one of the pet peeves of city residents within earshot of elevated subways. Unfortunately, once the massive construction of highways in the 1950s brought about a boom in interstate trucking, the High Line fell into disuse, with its last operation (pulling three carloads of frozen turkeys) occurring in 1980.
Over the next two decades, preservationists battled an attempt to demolish the structure. Friends of the High Line was founded in 1999 in order to preserve the space as an elevated public park. This nonprofit conservancy now works with the city's Department of Parks and Recreation to oversee its maintenance, operations and public programming. (A tip of the hat goes to former Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who, though often overly beholden to business interests, was farsighted enough to recognize the value of this open space to city residents. The reward, as discussed in this post from WNYC three years ago, was economic revitalization in the streets adjoining the park.)
Visitors can now access the High Line between 10th and 11th Avenues at several points from Gansevoort to 30th Streets. The last count I came across indicated that 3.7 million visitors had come to this stretch of land, cutting through the Meatpacking District, West Chelsea, and Hell's Kitchen/Clinton neighborhoods. Walking up from 20th Street, I found it a breathtaking view of this part of the city—and, judging from the crowd (according to Friends of the High Line, about evenly divided between residents and out of towners), many agreed with me.

Bilic unimpressed by England
Croatia boss Slaven Bilic has dismissed England as "predictable" and insisted he "expects" his side to win their World Cup qualifying group.
The countries meet in Zagreb on Wednesday with England looking for revenge after two defeats by Croatia saw them miss out on qualifying for Euro 2008.
"England can't play good football because they play predictable football. I don't know why. I would know that if I was training with them and speaking to them," Bilic told The Sun. "I expect us to win the group. I expected that two years ago and now definitely so. My team is definitely better than the one that beat England twice."
He added: "As a national team manager you have to talk to them. If I was England manager I would find out because, really, I don't know why they sometimes perform nowhere near what they can."
Former West Ham and Everton defender Bilic went on to outline the unusual methods he uses to get the best of out his players.
"Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players," he revealed. "I go to the room of (Vedran) Corluka and (Luka) Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes.
"You have to do it. Sometimes football managers think 'If you do that you're losing the distance and the authority'. No, you're gaining."
Bilic, who has insisted he will stay with Croatia despite interest from West Ham, also warned England his side have improved since their victory at Wembley last year.
"No one is fearing England," he said. "If anyone should be worried about Wednesday, it's England."

Country Bath Vanity Lighting - The usual baths in homes have small areas in comparison with the other chambers, and the frequent direction of lighting these baths will be from the ceiling regardless of the plan and theme of that particular toilet to save space. However there are other light fixtures for your bathroom which are available which are both stylish and appropriate for the toilet size. These fixtures are not only installed in the bathroom ceiling however on walls of the toilet too. Sconces as a light fixture is a theory inspired by the means of lighting used long past.
The torches hung on walls serving as the light of medieval castles have been replaced with the light bulbs and sconce lamps hung on walls. A favorite sconce fixture are the only used round the mirrors of superstars in their dressing rooms. Sconces can also be the tiny lamps hanging in the halls of hotels or homes. Additionally, there are toilet lighting sconces, with layouts and dimensions appropriate for the area and concept of the toilet too. These scones in baths are less debilitating, creating attention for a focal point of the toilet and ought to draw less attention supporting the scones in toilet lights.
The reason why sconces are ideal to be put around mirrors especially in bathrooms where all the make up and beautifying is completed is that sconce lighting fixtures provide adequate light especially of the facial skin. Bathroom lighting sconces also come in small bulbs for bathrooms with inadequate space. But the scones in toilet lights are not only for bordering mirrors, they also function as decorative lighting for the whole bathroom itself.
Depending upon the bulb used in the bathroom lighting scones, mild provided creates a specific ambiance in the bathroom. The plan of the scones in toilet lights also adds aesthetic worth other than lighting. The scones in toilet lights round mirrors don't need to be light bulbs independently. They can be small but stylish lamps which emit soft light to provide the warm air needed. It's likewise essential that the sconces are placed in a place not too high or low for a sconce to give effective lighting.
Bathroom lighting sconces, whether for better or decorative lighting purposes, are contributing factors for creating baths equally presentable and functional at the same time. But like any other light fixtures, proper installment in the proper regions of the ceilings or walls should be applied so that the lighting is going to get a better influence on the bathroom.

CM introduces "Know Your Government" series
With an aim to make people aware about the policies and projects launched by the state government, Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav is using social networking sites to initiate interactive campaign through a series "know your government".
Small, interesting, trivia are asked through twitter which is hash tagged with #knowyourgovernment. The question has four answers and the reader has to tick just one. The response including number of votes and whether the answer is correct or not could be seen immediately but Government uploads the answer the next day. The first question was asked from the twitter handle @UPGovt on Wednesday at 6 pm. The question was – What is the length of Agra-Lucknow Expressway. Four options were given – 306 km, 302 km, 307 km and 310 km.
Exact 24 hour later @UPGovt uploaded the right answer. The tweet from @UPGovt read: The length of the #Agra-#Lucknow Expressway is 302 kms. 44% people answered yesterday's #trivia question correctly. #KnowYourGovernments
"This being the first day the response was very good. Almost 44 per cent gave correct answer. A few like @monukhan271 even gave the width of the road which is 110 meters. This shows that people know about minute details of the projects. This is an encouraging sign," a senior official told The Pioneer on Thursday.
This interactive campaign of the Government is connected with other government sites like UP News 360. The question is re-twitted through other twitter handles of government agencies and officials. On Thursday @UPGovt asked another question: What is the name of the scheme launched to boost dairy production in UP. The four options are: Kamdhenu Yojana, Akshay Patra Yojana, Dughadh dharohar Yojana and Dhugdh Dhaara Yojana.
In first 15 minutes 24 people had answered this question and 85 per cent of them said it is Kaamdhenu Yojana.
Despite it being the first day the campaign has been noticed by the people as Logical News said in its tweet: UPGov started interactive campaign #KnowYourGovernment on twitter asking public to answer questions abt gov projects.
This tweet has been re-twitted 21 times. An official said that Government is using networking sites in a subtle way not only to educate people about the government schemes but also telling them how pace of development has picked up. "We will use these more innovative methods in future too," he said.
Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has been saying that Samajwadi Party Government has done enough for the people but it is very poor in popularizing our achievements. This interactive campaign could be the answer to CM's this query.

Listen, sir, somebody wants to nitpick a man's tragic loss of a mother because she was abandoned in a nursing home? Are you kidding? What kind of sick mind, what kind of black-hearted people want to nitpick a man's mother's death? They just buried Eva last week. I was there at the wake. Are you kidding me? That wasn't a box of Cheerios they buried last week. That was a man's mother whose story, if it is entirely broadcast, will be the epitome of abandonment. It will be the saddest tale you ever heard, a man who was responsible for safekeeping of a half a million people, mother's died in the next parish because she was abandoned there and he can't get to her and he tried to get to her through EOC. He tried to get through the sheriff's office. He tries every way he can to get there. Somebody wants to debate those things? My God, what sick-minded person wants to do that?
What kind of agenda is going on here? Mother Nature doesn't have a political party. Mother Nature can vote a person dead and Mother Nature can vote a community out of existence. But Mother Nature is not playing any political games here. Somebody better wake up. You want to come and live in this community and see the tragedy we're living in? Are you sitting there having your coffee, you're in a place where toilets flush and lights go on and everything's a dream and you pick up your paper and you want to battle ideology and political chess games? Man, get out of my face. Whoever wants to do that, get out of my face.
Tim Russert is a shameless hack for power and the status quo. He may have realized, however, that it's best not to tangle with an angry, eloquent Cajun who knows what he's talking about. I wish other Washington politicians would stand up to Russert the way Aaron Broussard did.

Stopping at Mc Donalds for breakfast we then headed towards Queensferry dropping down onto the Old Chester Road. We had a pit stop at Water World and the garden centre. We had a good look around both places Aaron loves looking at the animals especially the fish.
It was a lovely day out over to soon it wasn't long before we were headed back home to beautiful Wales.
We then headed to visit the boys grave. Here we all tidyed up the grave removing some rubbish that had been put on just before Christmas along with the flowers that had wilted.
After placing all the rubbish in the bin we headed to the church for the christening Moreton Parish. The church dates back to the 18Th century. I was christened here also. The ceremony was lovely. Afterwards we all headed off to the Arrow Park Hotel for the party.
Darcey is a very pretty little girl with her blonde locks. She is a very happy little girl full of smiles Below is a photograph of her she is the spitting image of Aaron when he was her age
We all had a great time party games and songs. A disco and really nice buffet. Billy got on well with all our family and went down a treat. He is a very handsome man dark with gorgeous brown eyes you`d die for. What a hunk.
Aaron played with his cousins James and Ross all three getting up to mischief. Missiles form straws naughty naughty. Even Billy was getting up to mischief. Aaron giggled with delight. Lovely to see Aaron with such a wonderful father figure in his life.
It was a lovely day out over to soon it wasn't long before we were headed back home to beautiful Wales.

L-R: Dr Ausaf Ahmad, Editor Mutala't (Quarterly), Dr M Manzoor Alam, Chaiman IOS, Mr K Rahman Khan, Deputy Speaker Rajya Sabha, Prof (Dr) Tahir Mahmood, member of Law Commission of India, Dr Kumar Rajiv, Secretary General Peoples Movement of India
New Delhi, June 7: A group of intellectuals, academics, activists and lawyers here today mooted the establishment of a People's Monitoring Committee to oversee the progress in the implementation of government plans, especially those related to the uplift of Dalits, tribals and minorities.
The resolution to establish such a committee came at the end of a day-long seminar on Citizens' Role in Governance at the Indian Law Institute. The seminar was organised jointly by the Indian Association of Muslim Social Scientist, Peoples Movement of India, the All India Milli Council and the Institute of Objective Studies.
Speaker: Dr Kumar Rajiv
Dr Kumar Rajiv, a teacher of business studies at Jodhpur University, said that the spread of democracy was hindered by a lack of internal democracy within parties. "The fact that too many families in India have been involved in politics for generations and a grandfather MP leaves his seat for his son to be an MP, whose son, the first one's grandson, comes in to fill his father's place limits the access of others seriously", he said.
Another restrictive factor for the growth of democracy is lack of Citizens' right to recall MLAs and MPs who do not function well.
Speaker: Prof (Dr) Tahir Mahmood
Dr Tahir Mahmood, member of Law Commission of India and former chairman National Commission for Minorities, said in his erudite keynote address that in the entire SAARC region India is the only country which is truely secular. That provides a remarkably effective system for treating all citizens as equal as the state has no religion of its own.
Dr Mahmood was of the opinion that despite official corruption and other ills afflicting democracy it was spreading and deepening. Among other impulses for such growth and deepening of democracy he listed the emergence of information and communication technology that enables people to network and communicate with each other as well as with government agencies. Government on its parts is taking resort to e-governance with satisfactory results.
Speaker: Maulana Asrarul Haque Qasmi
Maulana Asrarul Haque Qasmi, MP, argued for pluralist, secular, inclusive governance in the interest of the larger masses. For that people would have to show active interest in how their government and bureaucracy function.
Speaker: Mr ET Bashir
Mr ET Bashir, MP and former education minister of Kerala, said that a sound constitutional basis had led to the spread of democracy from the federal level to the panchayati raj level. He said more and more instruments of people's empowerment were in place today, like Right to Information Act (RTI) that promote openness and good governance.
However, low representation of the weaker sections in assemblies and parliament as well as in government and private jobs remained a fact of life. He said education would improve the functioning of democracy and more people would benefit from it.
Speaker: Dr MD Thomas
Dr MD Thomas, National Director Commission for Religious Harmony, observed that citizen's participation in governance involved a fine balance between rights and duties. For this the "centrality of the Constitution" had to be maintained in conduct of public affairs, because "the Constitution is the sacred book so far as civic life is concerned".
Speaker: Mr Nikhil Kumar
Former Police Commissioner of Delhi and Member Parliament Mr Nikhil Kumar observed that as the majority of aam aadmi lives in villages government policies had to be focused more sharply on the uplift of villages. Already National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) has brought Congress Party close to the aam aadmi in villages, especially in Bihar.
He regretted that in his native Bihar only 31 percent of the funds of National Rural Employment Scheme (NRES) were utilised. Likewise, banks had failed to advance loans to Muslims in adequate numbers. That had to be corrected, he added.
Speaker: Mr Ravi Nair
Ravi Nair, executive director South Asia Human Rights Documentation Centre minced no words while describing what prevented citizens' involvement in governance. The Official Secrets Act, for one. "It is a bulwark against citizen's rights", he said.
The character of the Indian state is more unitary than federal, he observed. That also hinders than helps people's empowerment. So is the concept of sovereign impunity which nullifies citizens' rights in may cases. These provisions have to be erased in the interest of a more meaningful democracy.
Speaker: Mr Gurdip Singh
Mr Gurdip Singh, chief editor Aja ki Awaz, said that candle light vigil at the India Gate against Mumbai terror attacks was a good idea, but there was no such vigil for the larger number of victims of 1984 or 2002 anti-minority killings. This reflects badly on the priorities of the civil society.
Speaker: Mr K Rahman Khan
In his presidential address Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman K Rahman Khan lauded the RTI Act as a tool to empower citizens. However, he said that it would take some more time for a greater openness in governance to become a reality.
Speaker: Dr Mohammad Manzoor Alam
The Chairman of the Institute of Objective Studies Dr Mohammad Manzoor Alam stressed the need to reconcile the conflict between demands of liberty and security, individual dignity and the ham handedness of investigating authorities, privacy and dignity of the citizen on one hand state surveillance on the other, citizens' rights versus police powers.
L-R: Dr Doel Mukherjee, Consultant on Police Reforms, Mr Ravi Kishore, A Businessman, Mr Santoosh Bhartiya, Editor Chauthi Duniya weekly, Dr M Manzoor Alam, Chairman IOS, Wing Commander RS Chatwal
Dr Aamir Ali, Asstt Professor of Political Science at JNU said that the work of three centuries of citizens' rights has begun to unravel today. "Civil rights came in the 18th century, political rights in the 19th and social rights in the 20th", he explained. However, he regretted that the social rights have begun to be destroyed by the state.
Dr Doel Mukherjee, Consultant on Police Reforms, said that police reforms in India had so far been elusive. Even the President's address to the joint session of Parliament on June 4 made a scant mention of it.
Former MP and editor of Chauthi Duniya weekly cautioned the audience not to expect any breakthrough from the 15th Lok Sabha. He said what people want for themselves (like education, employment, justice) is more important than what government is planning for them.
A view of audiance
The resolution mooting the establishment of a People's Monitoring Committee would publish quarterly reports on the functioning of government keeping in view constitutional guarantees, manifestoes of the UPA constituents, the President's address of June 4 and documents like the Sachar Committee Report.

As we prepare to observe the 150th anniversary of 1857 events we are once again apt to ask ourselves the same old, unanswered questions: Was it a mutiny, first war of independence, or Jihad for the sake of Islam? William Dalrymple's account clearly shows that it had elements from all the three. More ...

Little Cub is a new trio from South London who have already released some promising singles ("Loveless" and "My Nature") and sport a sound that would appeal to fans of fellow Brits Boxed In and New Order, as well as Yanks LCD Soundsystem. The band has signed to Domino and announced their debut album, Still Life. They have also shared a video for single "Too Much Love." Still Life is due out April 28 via Domino. Check out the video below, followed by the album's tracklist and cover art, as well as the videos for "Loveless" and "My Nature."
Little Cub is Dominic Gore, Duncan Tootill, and Adrian Acolatse. Lily-Rose Thomas directed the "Too Much Love" video. Gore had this to say about the video in a press release: "'Too Much Love' is a song about cynicism. For the video, we took a bunch of our experiences and experiences of our friends and reset them into a sort of modern day morality tale based around where we live. Except, there is no moral really. The decisions, good or bad, all live in the grey area where I think most of us reside. Like a Groundhog Day where no lessons are learnt and nothing really changes."

01. Too Much Love
