Class of Hispanic Janitorial Workers Sexually Harassed, One Raped by Supervisor, Federal Agency Charged
LOS ANGELES — ABM Industries, Inc., along with two subsidiaries, ABM Janitorial Services, Inc. and ABM Janitorial Services Northern California, Inc. will pay $5.8 million and provide other relief to a class of 21 Hispanic female janitorial workers, settling an egregious sexual harassment lawsuit filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the federal agency announced today.
The sexual harassment began around 2001, with the most severe forms involving sexual assaults of some women beginning in 2005 throughout California's Central Valley region, according to the EEOC's suit. The EEOC asserted that the 21 class members were victims of varying degrees of unwelcome touching, explicit sexual comments and requests for sex by 14 male co-workers and supervisors, one of whom was a registered sex offender. Some of the harassers allegedly often exposed themselves, groped female employees' private parts from behind, and even raped at least one of the victims, the EEOC said. The EEOC's suit charged that ABM failed to respond to the employees' repeated complaints of harassment, which made for a dangerous and sexually hostile work environment. Many of the harassers continued to work despite the complaints.
The EEOC filed suit against ABM in 2007 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California (U.S. EEOC v. ABM Industries, Inc. and ABM Janitorial Services, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:07 CV 01428 LJO JLT), arguing that the conduct was a direct violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended (Title VII), which prohibits gender discrimination in employment, including sexual harassment.
"Despite progress, sexual harassment remains a significant problem for our nation's workforce," said EEOC Chair Jacqueline A. Berrien. "The EEOC takes very seriously its obligation to obtain redress for employees who are victims of these egregious practices. This settlement serves as a reminder to employers that they must remain vigilant in preventing and remedying harassment in their workplace."
Aside from the monetary relief, the three-year consent decree settling the suit requires ABM to:
"All I wanted was to do my job," said class member Maria Quintero. "I never dreamed that I would be exposed to so much abuse at work. I complained several times about the abuse I suffered and saw, and they did nothing. I am relieved to know that ABM will make changes to make sure that no one else has to suffer as we did."
Anna Park, regional attorney for the EEOC's Los Angeles District Office, said, "We commend ABM for addressing what we found to be a grave and ominous situation for its female staff. Employers must implement strict policies and procedures to safeguard against such harassment, and take employee complaints seriously so that they not rise to the level of severity we saw in this case."
Melissa Barrios, local director for the EEOC's Fresno Local Office, added, "The EEOC is an avenue for workers who suffer sexual abuse and harassment on the job. Workers have the right to file complaints against employers that fail to protect them against such behavior -- and without the threat of retaliation."
According to ABM's website, www.abm.com, ABM Janitorial Services is a Fortune 1000 provider of commercial cleaning services, operating in branches nationwide.
The EEOC is the federal agency that enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on the agency's web site at www.eeoc.gov.

"Colombiana" was co-written and produced by Luc Besson, the man who in 1994 gave Natalie Portman her first starring role, in "The Professional." Both films involve young girls whose families are murdered by folks involved in the drug trade, and then turn to an older man to learn the art of murder so they can seek revenge. Besson's original take on this film is a cult classic, the kind of movie that stops channel surfers in their tracks. This new version is an uneven mess whose sincere laughs are far outnumbered by the unintentional ones.
This time around it's Zoe Saldana, as Cataleya, who's all grown up and out for blood. As a child she manages to escape her parents' killers, get to the U.S. Embassy, catch a flight to Miami, escape the feds, hop a bus to Chicago and reunite with her uncle. One has to admire her sense of purpose as she complains bitterly to her uncle that the school she's just been enrolled in can't teach her anything about how to kill the men who murdered her parents. He responds to this by (spoiler alert) pulling a gun from his coat and pumping a barrage of rounds into a passing car, and asking her to choose between his gun and her backpack. And from there the inanities march on…
It seems that Cataleya's body and brain are so finely tuned that she can, with Swiss precision, bite a hole in a plastic cup so that it drips water at a specific rate. And the magical way in which FBI computers work will leaving a viewer either chilled by how easily the government can identify you from the grainiest surveillance video, or laughing in memory of the guy in "Super Troopers" clicking away at his keyboard saying "Enhance… Enhance…Enhance…"
"Colombiana" is so committed to remaining true to the lamest of action film tropes that Cataleya even has a love interest, played by Michael Vartan (who likes to hang with sexy assassins), whose sole purpose is to whine about how they don't have a real relationship and screw things up for our hero. It's a stock character that's made no less tiresome and annoying by the gender flip.
Watching Saldana slink about, taking down her prey one by one, it's hard not to feel sorry for her--she deserves better than this dopey script. She looks great, she moves well, she's comfortable hoisting a 50-millimeter rifle… the least Besson and director Olivier Megaton could do is spare her the gratuitous dance scene, the bad dialogue, the overly emotive pleas and the rest. She deserves better than "Colombiana," and so do we.

LAKE JACKSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ron Paul, a twelve-term U.S. congressman, member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and 2012 Republican Presidential Candidate, remarked on President Obama's speech earlier today about the United States' Middle East policy. Please see the statement below.
"The President gave a speech today about our foreign policy in the Middle East, and once again this administration has proven that it does not understand a proper foreign policy for America. When will our leaders finally do what's right for America and rethink this irrational approach we've followed for far too long?
"Israel is our close friend. While President Obama's demand that Israel make hard concessions in her border conflicts may very well be in her long-term interest, only Israel can make that determination on her own, without pressure from the United States or coercion by the United Nations.
"Unlike this President, I do not believe it is our place to dictate how Israel runs her affairs. There can only be peace in the region if those sides work out their differences among one another. We should respect Israel's sovereignty and not try to dictate her policy from Washington.
"The President also defended his unconstitutional intervention in Libya, authorized not by the United States Congress but by the United Nations, and announced new plans to pressure Syria and force the leader of that country to step down.
"Our military is already dangerously extended, and this administration wants to expand our involvement. When will our bombing in Libya end? Is President Obama seriously considering military action against Syria? We are facing $2 trillion dollar deficits, and the American taxpayer cannot afford any of it.
"Our military's purpose is to defend our country, not to police the Middle East.
"As the President prepares to send even more support to Egypt, we should be reminded that it was our foreign aid that helped Mubarak retain power to repress his people in the first place. Now we have to deal with the consequences of those decisions, yet we keep repeating the same mistakes.
"I am not the only one who can see the absurdities of our foreign policy. We give $3 billion to Israel and $12 billion to her enemies. Most Americans know that makes no sense.
"We need to come to our senses, trade with our friends in the Middle East (both Arab and Israeli), clean up our own economic mess so we set a good example, and allow them to work out their own conflicts."

The Trunk to Ease Discovery of Complementary Products, Increase Revenue for Partners
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA--(Marketwire - July 14, 2010) - Evernote, makers of the popular multi-platform memory enhancing service, today announced the launch of The Evernote Trunk, a dynamic catalog designed to help users discover complementary products, applications and content that enrich their Evernote experience. The Trunk also provides increased exposure and revenue opportunities to the ever-expanding number of products and services that tie into Evernote's platform for human memory.
The Trunk is built into the desktop and Web versions of Evernote, allowing users to explore dozens of partner offerings, ranging from document scanners to voice transcription services to collaboration platforms to PDF annotation tools. Every product contained within the Evernote Trunk leverages some, or all, of Evernote's powerful features, including cross-platform synchronization, image recognition, note creation and storage. In addition to hardware and software, the Trunk introduces a new distribution opportunity for publishers and content providers with its 'Notebooks' category.
"Evernote's evolution from personal tool to human memory platform has been thrilling," said Phil Libin, CEO of Evernote. "Our vision has never changed: Evernote is here to help people remember everything. Over the past two years, that has become a vision shared by thousands of developers worldwide that have made Evernote a key component of their applications. The Trunk takes all their amazing work and places it squarely in front of our over three and a half million users. It's really exciting to see Evernote bring more value to our users and increase the visibility of our partners at the same time."
New and exciting integrations
The Trunk contains a number of brand new integrations that enable many much-requested Evernote features:
Exclusive content partners
The Trunk includes a new 'Notebook' category, which features exclusive content assembled for Evernote by lifestyle and special interest publications. At launch, the Trunk includes notebooks by Make Magazine, Cool Hunting, California Home and Design, and BlackBook Magazine, as well as collections of games and puzzles from Puzzazz.com and notebooks of useful tips from the Evernote Tips blog.

#1 China Nuclear Screw up.Nuclear Explosion Suspected at Epicenter of the Earthquake

Nuclear Explosion Suspected at Epicenter of the Sichuan Earthquake
An unnamed expert believes that a nuclear explosion caused the recent 8.0 magnitude Sichuan earthquake in China, where three weeks after the catastrophe the death toll has reached 69,000 plus.
Overseas Chinese website Boxun News reported that the expert confirmed there was a nuclear explosion near the epicenter, based on witness reports and the discovery of concrete rubble believed to have come from an underground military installation.
Mr. He, a local resident, stated that when the earthquake occurred on May 12, people saw something erupt from the top of a mountain next to the valley, "It looked like toothpaste being squeezed out," said He. "No, it wasn't [magma]. It was these concrete pieces. The eruption lasted about three minutes."
According to a China News Services (CNS) report on May 31, 2008, paramedics from People's Liberation Army (PLA) hospitals and psychologists from Beijing onsite May 23 found concrete debris at the bottom of a valley near the epicenter. The half-mile-wide valley was covered with debris 10 - 20 inches thick, covering the valley floor for almost 1.5 miles.
No major construction was occurring in the area at the time of the earthquake.
The thickness of the concrete pieces seemed to match that used in China's underground military bases, according to Boxun's expert. He explained that while there are documented cases that earthquakes cause volcanic eruptions, there are no accounts of eruptions ejecting concrete.
Based on the CNS report and timing of the eruption at the scene, there seemed to be no evidence of natural volcanic activity. The expert stated he was certain a nuclear weapon explosion shattered the underground concrete structures, hurling debris into the air.
At least one of China's nuclear military bases is located in Mianyang City, Sichuan, near the epicenter.
Chinese Internet surfers commented that right after the quake military Special Forces blocked traffic heading toward the epicenter on the mountain, and men in white chemical protective clothing in military vehicles were also spotted driving toward the mountain. Rescue personnel near the epicenter were all military, according to witnesses.
The expert believes the nuclear explosion was not confined to the underground test area and has caused radiation contamination, stating that in a call to Beijing he recommended authorities accept help from other countries, seal the area, find and provide help to those who had been exposed to contamination during the rescue work, and take emergency measures to prevent water contamination.

I'll bet China will be low on Nuclear weapons for a long time becauise of this.They had a major Nuclear storage vault in the area and it must have been under this mountain.There have been reports of extreme Nuclear radiation release from the area !If there has been heavy Nuclear leakage this could be China's Chernobyl !

I feel confident in saying that if this really had been a nuclear explosion, most of the world would be aware of it. Radiation is pretty hard to keep secret.
Unnamed expert. Oooooookay. Richter Scale readings here in the States or in Japan confirm that? Remember Bad-Hair-Dudes" dud? That pop was detected and its resonance was confirmed as a non-nuclear event, other than simply being a dirty bomb in a cave. The Earths crust is like a large bell and these things are a bit hard to hide - even with the rumblings of a earthquake immediately afterward. It could happen - just not likely.At Coretta Scott King's funeral in early 2006, Ethel Kennedy, the widow of Robert Kennedy, leaned over to him and whispered, "The torch is being passed to you." "A chill went up my spine," Obama told an aide. (Newsweek)
This reeks of conspiracy theory. But the fact that China won't say boo will just feed the moonbats.
I surprised DU hasn't connected this with eeeeeeeevil Bushilter!!! :D

Was China's earthquake triggered by a nuclear accident? "With darwings at the site !"
Though I haven't seen this possibility mentioned anywhere, I'm certain that the folks at Fort Meade have spent a fair amount of time and effort trying to get a definitive answer to that question.
When I saw a map showing how close China's supersecret main complex for making nuclear warhead fuel — codenamed Plant 821 — is to the May 12 magnitude 7.9 earthquake's ground zero, accompanying William J. Broad's May 16, 2008 New York Times story about Western efforts to monitor possible radiation leakage as a result of the quake, I couldn't help but turn cause and effect around and wonder, what if?
More from Broad's article: "Closer to the epicenter of the quake that struck Monday is Mianyang [top], a science city whose outskirts house the primary laboratory for the design of Chinese nuclear arms. It is considered the Chinese equal to Los Alamos.
"Nuclear experts said that closer to the epicenter of the earthquake, in rugged hills a two-hour drive west of Mianyang, China runs a highly secretive center that houses a prompt-burst reactor. It mimics the rush of speeding subatomic particles that an exploding atom bomb spews out in its first microseconds.
"North in an even more rugged and inaccessible region, nuclear experts said, China maintains a hidden complex of large tunnels in the side of a mountain where it stores nuclear arms.
"This area is now under the earthquake formed lake flooding the storage tunnels .They are very anxious to drain the lake and recover the nukes !"
"'It's very close to the epicenter,'

Lessons from Chernobyl
"Responding to an explosion that awoke them at 1:23 a.m. on April 26, 1986, six firefighters stormed up more than 250 feet of exterior stairway and stared into the glowing face of the nuclear genie released just over four decades earlier. Within two weeks, all were dead."
There is a big difference between the radiation intensity of weapons grade Plutonium and reactor grade nuclear fuel.All of China's nuclear materal stored in bunkers in their storage caves is
underwater and is of weapons grade and highly radioactive ,
Water and nuclear warheads don't go well together !!
In addition to 12,000 land vehicles, a variety of Soviet helicopters
had to be decommissioned after being irradiated during the Chernobyl disaster response.
The Chernobyl epitaph :
The accident
On April 26 1986 at 1:23:58 am local time, the fourth reactor of the Chernobyl power plant - known as
Chernobyl-4 - suffered a catastrophic nuclear meltdown that resulted in a series of explosions and fire.
The catastrophe is attributed to a flawed reactor design and mistakes made by the plant operators,
who violated procedures intended to ensure safe operation of the plant. As at Three Mile Island,
a secondary factor contributing to the accident was the fact that plant operators were insufficiently
trained and unfamiliar with many characteristics of the reactor.
Several procedural irregularities contributed to the cause of the accident. One was insufficient
communication between the safety officers and the operators in charge of an experiment being run
that night. Moreover, because of insufficient training, the operators had only a very imperfect
understanding of how the reactor worked under the low amount of reactivity caused by the experiment.
Many of the reactor's engineering features, such as the dangerously large positive void coefficient
(see below), were virtually treated as military secrets, and the operators were unaware of them.
In addition, several safety systems were bypassed and ignored in order to conduct the experiment.
The reactor was undergoing an experiment to test the electrical backup supply which allows the
reactor to run safely during a power loss. The power output of the reactor was reduced from its
normal capacity of 3.2 to 1 GW in order to conduct the test at a safer, low power. The actual
power output fell to 30 MW, however, allowing the concentration of the neutron absorbing fission
product xenon-135 to rise; this product is typically consumed in a reactor under higher power
conditions. As the operators attempted to restore the power to the desired 1 GW, the concentration
of Xenon-135 limited the power output to around 200 MW.
In order to overcome the neutron absorption of the Xenon-135, the control rods were pulled out of the reactor farther than normally allowed under safety regulations.
As the coolant flow was decreased, the coolant was heated rapidly so that much of it began to boil.
As the coolant heated, pockets of steam formed in the coolant lines. The particular design of the
RBMK graphite moderated reactor at Chernobyl has a large positive void coefficient, which means
that the power of the reactor increases rapidly in the absence of the coolant.
As the power output rapidly increased the operators attempted to shut down the reactor by ordering an emergency manual "scram"--or rapid full insertion of the control rods.
However due to the slow speed of the control rod insertion mechanism, the graphite tips of the rods and the temporary displacement of coolant the scram actually caused the reaction rate to increase.
Within seconds the reactor jumped to around 30 GW, ten times the normal operational output.
The fuel rods began to melt and the steam pressure rapidly increased causing a large explosion, displacing and destroying the reactor lid, rupturing the coolant tubes and then blowing a hole in the roof.
When outside air contacted the graphite moderator of the core, the graphite began to burn. The fire dispersed most of the radioactive contamination.
To reduce costs, and because of its large size, the reactor only had partial containment. This
allowed the radioactive contaminants to escape into the atmosphere after the steam explosion
burst the primary pressure vessel. After part of the roof blew off, the inrush of oxygen combined
with the extremely high temperature of the reactor fuel and graphite moderator sparked a graphite
fire. This fire greatly contributed to the spread of radioactive material.

Big Rapids, Mich. - The Ferris State University men's basketball squad will head into the holiday break and the New Year riding a five-game winning streak as the Bulldogs stormed past Cornerstone by a 96-75 score on Saturday (Dec. 21) afternoon inside FSU's Jim Wink Arena.
The Bulldogs shot 52.3% for the day and placed five individuals in double-figure scoring as first-year head coach Andy Bronkema directed FSU to a decisive win over his collegiate alma mater and mentor in longtime Cornerstone head coach Kim Elders.
The victory was the fifth-straight for Ferris State, which improved to 5-3 overall this campaign with the win over the Golden Eagles, who fell to 11-3 on the year. FSU is also off to its best start since 2005 in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) and are one of only two teams still unbeaten (4-0) in league action along with Grand Valley State.
Ferris State started quickly as the Bulldogs scored the first eight points of the afternoon. However, the Golden Eagles answered with a 17-5 run as Cornerstone grabbed a 17-13 lead nearly midway thru the opening half in the first matchup between the two teams since 2008.
Ferris State regained the advantage in the final eight minutes of the initial stanza and pushed the edge to 12 points with less than two minutes remaining in the half before eventually settling for a 47-37 lead at the break.
Cornerstone cut FSU's halftime lead to five points with 14:37 to go at 57-52, but Ferris State responded by going on a 7-2 run to push the margin right back to 10 with 11 minutes left. FSU eventually pushed the margin to as many as 24 points with two minutes remaining after a strong finish. The Bulldogs closed the contest on a 30-17 run over the final 10 minutes of the game.
With the win, Ferris State improved to 4-1 all-time against the Golden Eagles in regular-season action and Bronkema scored his first win over his former collegiate head coach. He was a two-time NAIA All-American as a collegiate standout under Elders with the Golden Eagles.
Junior guard Drew Lehman led the Bulldogs with a game-high 21 points, which included an 11-of-11 showing at the free throw line. He was joined in double-digits by sophomore center Jared Stolicker with 17 points, including 13 in the opening half.
The Bulldogs also received 13 points from junior forward Matt Poches along with 11 by junior guard Dietrich Lever and 10 from sophomore forward Dan Chilcote off the bench. Sophomore forward Josh Fleming added nine points in the victory.
Ferris State connected on 18-of-31 (58.1%) shots in the first half and closed the game by making 16-of-34 (47.1%) in the second frame to finish at 52.3% (34-65) for the day. The Bulldogs also hit 10-of-20 (50%) three-pointers with three from Fleming in addition to two each by Lehman and Chilcote. FSU was 18-of-24 (75%) at the charity stripe behind Lehman's individual performance.
Defensively, the Bulldogs forced 12 turnovers on the Cornerstone side and limited CU to only a five-of-17 (29.4%) shooting figure from behind the arc. The Golden Eagles were 26-of-58 (44.8%) from the floor and 18-of-21 (85.7%) at the line.
Wes Hudson led Cornerstone with a team-best 18 points while Jake Plite scored 14 points and Ben Lanning added nine points in the setback.
FSU posted a 39-30 rebounding margin and came up with 14 offensive boards to only nine caroms at the offensive end for Cornerstone. The Bulldogs owned a 18-13 edge in second chance production. Fleming grabbed a game-high eight boards for FSU with senior forward Raymoan McAfee adding six to go with his six points on the floor. Stolicker had five rebounds.
Ferris State's balanced offensive effort was a direct result of its ability to distribute the ball as the Bulldogs dished out 24 assists. Both Lever and Lehman had five helpers each while sophomore wing Milton Cribbs and Poches each handed out four assists. The Golden Eagles netted 13 assists with a team-high three from Lanning.
The Bulldogs also managed to hold onto the ball most of the day as they finished with only nine turnovers, including just two in the final 20 minutes of action. They forced 12 on the defensive end and came up with eight steals with a game-best four from Poches along with three by Lever. That helped lead to a slim 16-15 advantage in points off turnovers for Ferris State.
Saturday's contest represented the Bulldogs' final non-league outing of the season as the Bulldogs' remaining 18 contests this year will all be GLIAC matchups.
After the holiday break, Ferris State returns to action at home as FSU resumes GLIAC play versus Findlay on Thursday, Jan. 2, at Jim Wink Arena. Tipoff is set for approximately 8 p.m. (ET) following the women's contest in Big Rapids. FSU then hosts Hillsdale on Saturday, Jan. 4, in afternoon action at 3 p.m. (ET).
Tickets for all Ferris State home basketball contests can be purchased in advance thru the FSU Athletics Ticket Office inside the Ewigleben Sports Complex, online at StarTickets.com or by calling (800) 585-3737. For more information, please call (231) 591-2888 or visit FerrisStateBulldogs.com.

Big Rapids, Mich. - The Ferris State University men's basketball squad will head into the holiday break and the New Year riding a five-game winning streak as the Bulldogs stormed past Cornerstone by a 96-75 score on Saturday (Dec. 21) afternoon inside FSU's Jim Wink Arena.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17 (UPI) -- Finding ways to pull the United States back from the so-called fiscal cliff is "a test we cannot fail," a New Hampshire Republican senator said Saturday.
Delivering the weekly GOP media address, Sen. Kelly Ayotte urged both Democratic and Republican leadership to work together to find a solution to the nation's "out of control deficits" that includes entitlement reform and new revenue.
"Washington can't keep ducking the tough decisions," Ayotte said. "And the 'fiscal cliff' we're headed toward provides an opportunity for both parties to change our country's irresponsible spending path."
She noted that decade-long tax rates will expire by the first of the year, triggering across-the-board spending cuts.
Failure to stop the combination of tax hikes and spending cuts could throw the country back into recession, she said. "This is a test we cannot fail."
Both parties, she said, can agree to tax reform that generates new revenue without raising taxes.
"One thing is clear: doing nothing is not an option. And any effort to address our fiscal crisis without including entitlement reform can't be taken seriously," she said.
In urging bipartisanship, Ayotte said, "for the good of the nation, now is the time for both parties to bring their best ideas to the table."

The St. Vincent de Paul soup kitchen, whose case seeking to remain on Cliff Street appeared to be all but dead, got a boost Wednesday.
An appeal by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Norwich to keep the soup kitchen open was dismissed by a federal court in March. But, on Wednesday, a three-judge panel with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit in New York remanded the case back to Judge Warren W. Eginton at the U.S. District Court in Bridgeport. That sets the stage for a possible trial.
Brian Smith, a partner at Hartford-based Robinson & Cole law firm who represents the diocese, called the ruling a victory.
"We count it as a win," he said Thursday. "The case was dismissed, and we had nothing. But now we have a live case and could go to trial to see if we can win. We were dead in the water on this."
The proceedings trace back to mid-December, when the Commission on the City Plan unanimously voted to reject a special use permit that would have allowed the diocesan ministry to permanently operate out of St. Joseph School on Cliff Street.
Lawyers for the diocese filed an appeal in early January, which Eginton later tossed on the grounds that officials had not exhausted all local administrative options before seeking intervention by the court.
In Sept. 23 briefs filed ahead of the Second Circuit Court of Appeals decision, Smith and the diocese said the commission's vote "inflicted immediate injury on St. Vincent and the church from the date of denial."
But attorneys for the city argue the diocese's subsequent denial on May 14 of a use variance by the Zoning Board of Appeals makes its appeal "moot."
"This case is not rendered moot by the board's denial of the use variance application, because the denials of the special permit and use variance were rendered by different agencies, under different criteria on different grounds," the diocese urged in its Sept. 23 brief.
Two other soup-kitchen related cases — appeals of the use variance denial and zoning violation letters to the ministry from the city — have been consolidated and are pending in the U.S. District Court in New Haven.
Michael Zizka, an attorney representing the city, could not be reached for comment on Thursday.
Norwich resident Brian Kobylarz, who lives on Hobart Avenue nearby the soup kitchen, said reopening the special use permit case is "delaying the inevitable."
He believes the city's reasons for rejecting the soup kitchen in the first place — its perceived disharmony with the neighborhood and clash with the Plan of Conservation and Development — will prevail.
"There's a legal group that is trying to argue that a religious entity has veto power over a municipality that flies in the face of whatever damage they may cause to others and saying that is a superior right of theirs," Kobylarz said.
Kobylarz said he supports St. Vincent de Paul's mission and hopes to see a resolution that is good for both sides.
"They are answering a social need, and you certainly don't want to cause damage to other human beings," he said. "So we really need to feel they are engaged in a partnership with everybody to find a solution. And that's not simply to say, 'We're not moving.' "

In an exchange at the presidential debate Tuesday that had Obama supporters cheering and tweeting their joy, President Barack Obama stood up for his administration's response in the days following the attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya.
The Romney campaign and Republicans have been slamming Obama over what they called a bungled handling of the Benghazi attack that left Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans dead, particularly over the apparent insistence by the administration to blame the violence on protests over an anti-Muslim video.
On Tuesday, Obama appeared to refute those claims by referring to his speech in the Rose Garden on September 12, the day after the attacks. His assertion, and moderator Candy Crowley's confirmation, seemed to cause Romney to stumble as he tried to press forward with his argument.
OBAMA: The day after the attack, Governor, I stood in the Rose Garden, and I told the American people and the world that we are going to find out exactly what happened, that this was an act of terror. And I also said that we're going to hunt down those who committed this crime. And then a few days later, I was there greeting the caskets coming into Andrews Air Force Base and grieving with the families.
And the suggestion that anybody in my team, whether the secretary of state, our U.N. ambassador, anybody on my team would play politics or mislead when we've lost four of our own, Governor, is offensive. That's not what we do. That's not what I do as president. That's not what I do as commander in chief.
MS. CROWLEY: Governor, if you want to reply just quickly to this, please.
MR. ROMNEY: Yeah, I -- I certainly do. I certainly do. I -- I think it's interesting the president just said something which is that on the day after the attack, he went in the Rose Garden and said that this was an act of terror. You said in the Rose Garden the day after the attack it was an act of terror. It was not a spontaneous demonstration.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Please proceed.
MR. ROMNEY: Is that what you're saying?
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Please proceed, Governor.
MR. ROMNEY: I -- I -- I want to make sure we get that for the record, because it took the president 14 days before he called the attack in Benghazi an act of terror.
Get the transcript.
MS. CROWLEY: It -- he did in fact, sir.
So let me -- let me call it an act of terrorism -- (inaudible) --
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Can you say that a little louder, Candy? (Laughter, applause.)
MS. CROWLEY: He did call it an act of terror. It did as well take -- it did as well take two weeks or so for the whole idea of there being a riot out there about this tape to come out. You are correct about that.
Here, by the way, is the full transcript President Obama's speech on September 12 in the Rose Garden:
Good morning. Every day, all across the world, American diplomats and civilians work tirelessly to advance the interests and values of our nation. Often, they are away from their families. Sometimes, they brave great danger. Yesterday, four of these extraordinary Americans were killed in an attack on our diplomatic post in Benghazi. Among those killed was our Ambassador, Chris Stevens, as well as Foreign Service OfficerSean Smith. We are still notifying the families of the others who were killed. And today, the American people stand united in holding the families of the four Americans in our thoughts and in our prayers. The United States condemns in the strongest terms this outrageous and shocking attack. We're working with the government of Libya to secure our diplomats. I've also directed my administration to increase our security at diplomatic posts around the world. And make no mistake, we will work with the Libyan government to bring to justice the killers who attacked our people. Since our founding, the United States has been a nation that respects all faiths. We reject all efforts to denigrate the religious beliefs of others. But there is absolutely no justification to this type of senseless violence. None. The world must stand together to unequivocally reject these brutal acts. Already, many Libyans have joined us in doing so, and this attack will not break the bonds between the United States and Libya. Libyan security personnel fought back against the attackers alongside Americans. Libyans helped some of our diplomats find safety, and they carried Ambassador Stevens's body to the hospital, where we tragically learned that he had died. It's especially tragic that Chris Stevens died in Benghazi because it is a city that he helped to save. At the height of the Libyan revolution, Chris led our diplomatic post in Benghazi. With characteristic skill, courage, and resolve, he built partnerships with Libyan revolutionaries, and helped them as they planned to build a new Libya. When the Qaddafi regime came to an end, Chris was there to serve as our ambassador to the new Libya, and he worked tirelessly to support this young democracy, and I think both Secretary Clinton and I relied deeply on his knowledge of the situation on the ground there. He was a role model to all who worked with him and to the young diplomats who aspire to walk in his footsteps. Along with his colleagues, Chris died in a country that is still striving to emerge from the recent experience of war. Today, the loss of these four Americans is fresh, but our memories of them linger on. I have no doubt that their legacy will live on through the work that they did far from our shores and in the hearts of those who love them back home. Of course, yesterday was already a painful day for our nation as we marked the solemn memory of the 9/11 attacks. We mourned with the families who were lost on that day. I visited the graves of troops who made the ultimate sacrifice in Iraq and Afghanistan at the hallowed grounds of Arlington Cemetery, and had the opportunity to say thank you and visit some of our wounded warriors at Walter Reed. And then last night, we learned the news of this attack in Benghazi. As Americans, let us never, ever forget that our freedom is only sustained because there are people who are willing to fight for it, to stand up for it, and in some cases, lay down their lives for it. Our country is only as strong as the character of our people and the service of those both civilian and military who represent us around the globe. No acts of terror will ever shake the resolve of this great nation, alter that character, or eclipse the light of the values that we stand for. Today we mourn four more Americans who represent the very best of the United States of America. We will not waver in our commitment to see that justice is done for this terrible act. And make no mistake, justice will be done. But we also know that the lives these Americans led stand in stark contrast to those of their attackers. These four Americans stood up for freedom and human dignity. They should give every American great pride in the country that they served, and the hope that our flag represents to people around the globe who also yearn to live in freedom and with dignity. We grieve with their families, but let us carry on their memory, and let us continue their work of seeking a stronger America and a better world for all of our children. Thank you. May God bless the memory of those we lost and may God bless the United States of America.

A blog to compile what I have learned (and what I am learning) about Mandriva (and GNU/Linux in general) since 2009, when I migrated. Current distros I'm using: OpenMandriva Lx 3.1 /3.0 Mageia 6, PCLinuxOS 2017.03, Fedora Workstation 27 (KDE spin), PicarOS, Pisi Linux 1, Elive beta, and AntiX 13.
sábado, 17 de noviembre de 2012
That's the plan!
As soon as I get some time for myself, I plan to:
1. Read-- and write some articles!
2. Watch some Asian films or TV programs
3. Try out some Linux distros. The priority list includes Pardus Debian, Pardus Anka, Moondrake (unnamed loser or whatever Mandriva 2012 gets to be called), Parsix (the return of Gloria, hahaha), MiniNo,and Mint "Nadia"-- I lost count of the version already!
4. Migrate my desktop from Mandriva 2010.2 to ... I haven't decided yet. It is going to be wise to decide on an OS BEFORE migrating :P
One thing I know for sure, it won't be Windows 8 ;-)
Although I tried to see the second alpha of Mandriva, success has eluded me so far. I managed to get it installed on a 64b VM, but I could not see much of it without an X server. It's too bad I presently do not have real hardware to test the distro.
I already tried the second alpha of Mageia 3 and it's looking good. Sadly, I couldn't post anything about it because of... yes, lack of time thanks to the reports I have to prepare for the end of the semester.
But Megatotoro and I will try another experiment involving free software during the International Congress at the university where we work. That might be a little daring, but it will be interesting.
Let's see how everything goes.

Hopefully, you will come back to life when the semester is over.ResponderEliminar
Well, the same goes for me!
Yes, I'm looking forward to it. We'll get to start new crazy projects.ResponderEliminar
This is exactly how I've been feeling too. This semester has been ridiculous, but it is coming to its tail end. Good luck!ResponderEliminar

Good luck to you, too. Hopefully, you'll manage to get some time to review Mint "Nadia" when it is released. I find your reviews useful.

My review of Jeff Wilson's wonderful recent book Dixie Dharma: Inside a Buddhist Temple in the American South is now online at the journal Sociology of Religion. Here's a taste:
Deciding where to look is often the most important decision a researcher makes. Jeff Wilson's choice to look for Buddhism in Richmond, Virginia, instead of Los Angeles or San Francisco or Boston, is the jumping off point for a series of important discoveries about pluralism, hybridity, and region in American religious communities. In Dixie Dharma, Wilson draws on nearly a decade of ethnographic research at the Ekoji Buddhist Sangha of Richmond to challenge our current scholarly assumptions about Buddhism in America and religion in the South. Through nuanced description and precise theoretical tools, Wilson examines a community of Buddhists working to form a community in the middle of an evangelically Protestant red state.

OK, I'll admit that this self-stabilising bike is clever: it's kind of a Segway turned sideways, using gyros to detect if it's off-balancing, and adjusting the steering automagically to compensate. It's also a standard electric bike, so it propels you along without needing any annoying foot-power: very 21st Century indeed.
Apparently it's quite tricky to get a bike to balance, since steering and such requires a degree of off-balance maneuvering...but the team at Keio University in Yokohama has managed it and their prototype easily manages 2.5 metres per second.
They're working on making it able to deal with uneven road surfaces, and ultimately they want a zero-speed stable bike, since "Many bicycle falling accidents happen when elderly people stop a bicycle in a crosswalk, and so on." Great. Though, I'm going to suggest a lower-tech and greener approach: A third wheel. [Physorg]

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – A struggling UC Riverside team was just what the doctor ordered for the UC Santa Barbara women's basketball team.
After dropping a tough contest on Thursday and having played nothing but close, stomach-churning games over the past month, the Gauchos easily handled UCR and punished the Highlanders, 63-43 on Saturday in the Thunderdome. UC Riverside falls to 2-16 and 0-6 in the Big West with its eight consecutive loss this season.
Meanwhile the Gauchos improve to 7-8, 2-2. The 20-point win was the Gauchos' largest of the season and the 63 points scored was the team's second-highest total of the year. UCSB shot 41.3% from the floor and handed out 18 assists, a season best.
Sweets Underwood led the way with 16 points and seven rebounds as she was extremely active from the opening tip. Back in the starting lineup, Underwood scored the Gauchos' first eight points and was a major presence both offensively and defensively.
She helped UCSB enjoy a 45-26 rebounding advantage over the Highlanders, which included 33 defensive rebounds and limiting UCR to just one offensive board.
Kelsey Adrian added 15 points for UCSB and Nicole Nesbit had nine points off the bench.
UCSB jumped out to a 16-8 lead midway through the first half but UCR rallied and brought the game to a bucket's difference moments later. While Santa Barbara led throughout the game the Highlanders kept it close until UCSB finished the half on a 6-2 run.
The Gauchos went on a 9-0 run midway in the second half to turn a 50-40 game into a laugher and cruised the rest of the way.
Emilie Johnson had three points, seven rebounds, four assists, three steals and no turnovers for the Gauchos while Angelei Aguirre finished with a career-high tying six points and a season-best seven rebounds.
UCSB will play on Thursday at 7 p.m. at Long Beach State with the pregame show on AM 990 starting at 6:30. Fans can also listen live online by clicking here.
The Gauchos don't return home until Jan. 26 when they face UC Davis. Tickets are available by calling 893-UCSB or by visiting our online ticket office.
UCSB defeats UCR, 63-43. Twenty point win largest this season.

Rush to buy NFL team, fulfill dream of 'owning a bunch of black guys'
October 13, 2009 19 Comments
Rush Limbaugh's plans to rename team 'St. Louis Monkeys' comes under fire from NFL for being overtly racist
ST. LOUIS, MO – Radio host Rush Limbaugh has never liked the idea of African American NFL quarterbacks, but until now he's only been able to make racist comments about the topic. However, it might only be a matter of time before he can actually do something about it. Rush is rumored to be part of an ownership group that is hoping to buy an NFL team, and fortunately for Donovan McNabb- it's the St. Louis Rams.
Sources close to Rush say that owning all or part of an NFL team would fulfill his dream of "following in my great, great grand-daddy Scooter's footsteps." Rush's great, great grand-father Scoot Limbaugh was a wealthy cotton grower and slave owner. Scoot's wife Anne, who he reportedly married at the tender age of twelve, died giving birth to Scoot's only son, Rush's great grand-father – Haste Limbaugh.
Rush has not made his love of slavery a secret and has been quoted as saying: "I mean, let's face it, we didn't have slavery in this country for over 100 years because it was a bad thing. Quite the opposite: slavery built the South… I'm just saying it had its merits." Rush has also made numerous racist comments on the predominance of African American players in the NFL including saying: "[it] all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons."
It should come as little surprise that the NFL Players Union has publicly opposed Rush's plans to buy the Rams. Which prompted Limbaugh to issue this reply: "Who cares if the players don't like the idea. Because guess who owns all of the teams? Rich white guys- That's who! And guess who happens to be a rich white guy? Me! So there you have it." Read more of this post

Color Fantasia with Laura BryantSign on for a fun-filled adventure with a colorful knitter, Laura Bryant. Drawing on Laura's expertise in color and hand-dyed yarns, spend two days immersed in a color-filled world. Specific exercises to tune your eyes and get you seeing color in new ways lead to hours working hands-on with color through knitting or crochet. Along the journey, you'll pick up tricks on how to contrast and blend colors, how to make luminous color stories or enhance stitch work and how to turn hand-dyed yarns into dazzling self-patterns. You'll learn to coax the inherent beauty out of any yarn, even turning ugly ducklings into swans, and leave with a swatch library that will inspire you for years to come. If you have ever had a yarn you just couldn't make work visually, bring it along and this class will develop a solution. Laura never met a color she didn't like, and loves the challenge of finding the right combination to make every color sing. Learn the true meaning of Laura's axiom "You don't get Wow! by doing the expected!"

This is the third in a short series of five tournaments celebrating my favourite maps of 2011. The term "Best of" is highly subjective, of course. I offer no warranty that these maps are the "best" by any measurement other than my personal opinion. This tournament will feature all these maps with Nuclear spoils. (The first tournament in this series used No Spoils, the second used Flat Rate. This one is third is Nuclear, the fourth will run Escalating, and the last one will feature randomized spoils.)
Eligibility: To play in this tournament, you must be premium, have a turns-taken record of 98% or better, at least 100 completed games, and be at least a PFC on sign-up.
Procedure:The format of this tourney will be familiar to anyone who has played in my "Nuclear War" series. In each tourney in this series, the first nine phases will consist of multiplayer Standard games. In each of these phases, only the first player eliminated from each game is eliminated from the tournament. All others will continue to the next phase. As soon as all games in a phase have had one player eliminated, I will begin the next phase with the survivors. Winning these games will not influence the course of the tournament; only that first elimination is significant.
In the Final phase, all remaining players will play simultaneously in nine multiplayer Terminator games. These games will be completed and winning them will count, as will the number of kills.
Settings: All games will be Casual, Automatic, Foggy, Chained, Nuclear, with a 100-round limit and no trench.
The maps to be used are shown in the Phase spoilers below.
The finals will be different from the first nine phases.
Subject: DKs Best of 2011 III - Nuclear [Phase 3]
DJ Teflon wrote:A General Achievement Medal will be awarded for the player with the most wins in the first eight phases.
