Cloud Manager for Experience Manager
New self-service interface for IT to truly take advantage of Adobe Experience Manager in the cloud.
With the latest release comes Cloud Manager for Experience Manager, an interface for IT that speeds up and reduces risks of go-lives and updates by using a state-of-the-art continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. It accelerates capability customization to Experience Manager websites, such as altering navigation or adding a new functionality to a page. As a result, customizations are deployed more frequently and faster in a matter of hours and days, versus weeks or months.
Cloud Manager, in addition to the upgrade support of Experience Manager Managed Services, accelerates an organization's ability to use the latest innovations in Experience Manager and extend them in ways that moves one ahead of the competition.
Experience Manager Sites
Adobe Experience Manager Sites is the industry-leading intelligent web and omnichannel content management solution for marketers and IT. It lets you author, manage, and deliver experiences across the customer journey. Its rich authoring capabilities for websites and in-venue screens, as well as API-driven services, help you deliver content to other application end points.
New production-ready Core Components
Go live faster with out-of-the-box components that can dramatically reduce website launch costs and effort. With an ever-increasing library of components augmented by page navigation, teasers, and advanced search capabilities, you can create responsive page experiences with less coding or customization work of your own. Style System for web components.
Style System for web components
Create consistent style and design across components or pages, maximizing your design flexibility while minimizing development effort. The Style System allows you to create visual variations of web components with zero back-end development, which an author can then select from when designing experiences.
Content Services
A key element of fluid experiences, Content Services enables smooth access of raw assets and content as a JSON for any end point. Create a Content Fragment model for any end point and expose your Experience Manager managed content for use within any environment or application.
Smart Layout
Automatically create and scale personalized variations of page experiences, based on your audience engagement preferences. Smart Layout uses Adobe Sensei artificial intelligence to optimize the content layout and surface the most engaging content within a page based on analytics across your key business performance metrics.
Single-Page Application (SPA) Editor
Preview and edit single-page applications built on your favorite framework. This allows marketing and developer authors to collaborate and edit content seamlessly, regardless of the authoring framework used for creating SPAs.
Fluid personalization with Adobe Target
With the latest integration, you can use Experience Manager to create content and use Target to optimize and deliver that content to any touchpoint. This allows you to inject content easily into a touchpoint not owned by Experience Manager, while tailoring it specifically toward your end audience.
Extended translation capabilities
New automation features expedite accepted translation edits and store them for future reuse across authors. They also enhance your ability to configure multiple target languages in a translation project, and they give you tools to help organize and manage your global translation efforts.
Enhanced Adobe Campaign integration
Now you can create campaigns and emails directly in Experience Manager without having to switch to Campaign. The latest integration lets you create project templates to either create campaigns or standalone emails and validate content within Experience Manager.
Community management enhancements
Support thriving communities with enhanced moderation capabilities for automatic spam detection and reusable bulk moderation filters. Quickly support new markets with bulk creation of multi-language communities. Get structured information resources to the right audience by mapping assignment catalogs to specific community groups.
Experience Manager Assets
Adobe Experience Manager Assets is an intelligent digital asset management solution for marketers and IT to organize, adapt, and distribute rich media and experiences across the customer journey.
Access digital assets from AEM natively from within Adobe Creative Cloud
Use single sign-on with your Creative Cloud for enterprise account credentials to access DAM and creative assets from directly in Adobe Photoshop CC, Adobe Illustrator CC, and Adobe InDesign CC. Easily use the panel to check out files and prevent duplicate work, automatically update assets, and have changes flow back into the DAM — all without breaking your Creative Cloud workflow. Creatives no longer need to leave these apps to take advantage of the full value of Creative Cloud in Adobe Experience Manager, like cloud-based collaboration and the ability to separately store updates for work in progress. The workspace makes it easier than ever to create impactful digital experiences.
Smart Tags — enhanced for business-specific auto-tagging
Powered by Adobe Sensei, the next generation of Smart Tags uses a self-learning algorithm to recognize images and populate tags based on your unique business taxonomy. Unlike generic auto-tagging that only uses basic keywords, enhanced Smart Tags goes a step further, using your custom taxonomy to suggest and identify unique tags. As your library and taxonomy expand, Adobe Sensei becomes more intelligent, recognizing business-specific image features more quickly and automatically tagging new assets as they are introduced to the DAM.
Search — intelligent multilingual search
Experience Manager Assets uses Adobe Sensei to translate search terms in real time. Users can enter a keyword in one language, and the Sensei algorithm will translate that keyword instantaneously, searching and delivering matching assets across defined language libraries. Reducing reliance on metadata translation services, the intelligence search services makes your content more findable, in most any language.
Metadata management — more robust metadata ingestion, rules, entry, and governance
Experience Manager Assets now has even more robust metadata support. DAM admins can define cascading metadata fields, which only appear when their dependent parent fields are populated, for faster and more accurate cataloging. In addition, users can rapidly ingest metadata from any third-party system or file, or export completed metadata for use in other applications. Users benefit from improved governance, with an easier way to map complex metadata values and set required fields.
Enhanced user experience — refined user interface for improved productivity
Experience Manager Assets makes it easier to search, browse, preview, and work with a wide variety of file types with fewer clicks. Users can optimize their browsing experience by quickly switching between new views, like tree, card, or column, ensuring they find the right view for the right task. With more powerful search abilities, including enhanced operators and granular filters, it's easier than ever to find the needle in the haystack.
Brand Portal — more features to easily search, find, and share approved assets
Extended and distributed teams can now access a refreshed user interface and key new features to more easily search, find, and share approved assets. Brand Portal administrators have more configuration possibilities, with improved branding options to optimize appearance, robust governance to efficiently manage users, and extensive metadata controls to maximize findability. Admins can gain deeper insights into how they're using and distributing assets with comprehensive, exportable usage reports.
Smart Crop & Imaging — automated image crop and processing
The dynamic media capabilities within Experience Manager Assets are now smarter, powered by Adobe Sensei, empowering marketers to automate tasks with artificial intelligence in bulk and bring experiences to market more quickly than ever.
Smart imaging automatically detects the available bandwidth and device type to dramatically minimize image file size by up to 70% upon delivery, with no loss in visual fidelity, ensuring smooth, quick-loading experiences that drive conversion.
Smart Crop helps compress workflows and eliminates hours of tedious work by automatically detecting and cropping the focal point in any image, capturing the intended point of interest, regardless of screen size. Included with Smart Crop is the ability to automatically locate and generate high-quality color swatches from product imagery.
Experience Fragments and Hotspots — easy channel-optimized interactivity
We've added Dynamic Media support to supercharge Experience Fragments, giving users the ability to assemble and reuse interactive content and video for many channels.
With AEM 6.4, users can compose Experience Fragments with Dynamic Media to instantly reassemble fragments upon delivery into layouts that fit any targeted screen size. This additional capability empowers marketers to add more interactive or engaging experiences like clickable hotspots, videos, or product information pop-ups.
Emerging media — 3D, VR, panoramic media management, and viewers
Users can now find, manage, and smoothly deliver cutting-edge, next-generation experiences by using 3D assets alongside panoramic and VR viewers. Dramatically simplify workflows and increase velocity by replacing costly photography with photorealistic 3D assets, giving you the flexibility to repurpose any asset, from any angle, in any light, and in any setting.
Use Adobe Dimensions CC to create high-quality 3D assets that flow seamlessly into the DAM, providing tools to manage and deliver customizable interactions across channels. Allow customers to digitally tour scenes, properties, landscapes, or locations, and delight visitors with immersive, engaging VR experiences, via device-optimized, out-of-the-box viewers.
Experience Manager Forms
Multi-channel Interactive Communications
Generate both print and web communications from a single authoring interface. Designed with an intuitive, business-friendly drag-and-drop document editor, Interactive Communications are responsive to any screen size or device type. Whether communicating via web, print or PDF, Interactive Communications can incorporate shared content assets, process business rules, produce archival documents, and ensure compliance.
Pre-fill Interactive Communications from business applications
Interactive Communications can be connected to disparate data sources and back-end systems to pre-fill data elements for both print and web communications. Whether editing document templates or even individual fragments, re-usable data elements can be pulled in using drag & drop, enabling personalized communication—at scale. Out-of-the-box integrations with Microsoft Dynamics, RDBMS, REST & SOAP services, and OData make integrating core data systems fast and easy.
Workflow modernization
Accelerate creating and updating form-centric workflows with a new touch UI to edit workflows, drag and drop data integration steps, and drag and drop OOTB email workflow steps.
Faster load times for adaptive forms
Lazy loading fragments are now fully supported and can be used with repeatable panels to minimize respond and load times for long and complex adaptive forms. Fragments can be configured to only load when needed and are unloaded when complete.
Enhanced Experience Manager Forms App
Streamlined deployment for the Experience Manager Forms App lets workers in the field capture data offline, with data automatically synchronizing with back-end systems. The app now also supports lazy loading adaptive forms, which is particularly important when internet connections are slow or weak.
Streamlined upgrade from LiveCycle to Adobe Experience Manager Forms
Upgrade from LiveCycle ES4 directly to Experience Manager Forms in a single step. The result is a faster path to utilize experience-focused capabilities like basic analytics, experience targeting, a modernized Touch UI, Adaptive Forms, and Interactive Communications provided by Adobe Experience Manager that did not exist in LiveCycle.
Automated Forms Conversion
Use Adobe Sensei to automate the process of converting legacy forms to mobile responsive forms for any device. Automated Forms Conversion can intelligently ingest existing forms, recognizing fields and content and applying styling, common navigation, logic, and validations. Forms are compared, and common form elements are extracted and converted into reusable form fragments. The reusable fragments allow form authors to reduce the number of forms needed to create, simplify, and maintain up-to-date form collections.
Experience Manager Livefyre
Integration with Experience Manager Assets
Livefyre integrates with Experience Manager Assets, enabling easy searches for the best social content on the web, directly within the Assets interface. Now, you can store both user-generated content and brand-created content in a single place. Livefyre's rights request workflow is built into Assets, making it easy to get explicit rights and removing the legal worries of working with UGC.
Integrate UGC into more channels with Experience Fragments
Save time and resources by creating compelling UGC-fueled content in Experience Fragments and easily repurpose across channels — web, mobile, banners, and more. Also export into Adobe Target to deliver personalized experiences and conduct powerful A/B tests. Any changes made to the content can be automatically updated across channels.
Increase conversion and revenue with UGC Commerce
Pair relevant user-generated photos, videos, and reviews with products from your commerce platform and place them directly on product detail pages to influence the last phase of purchase. This works with Experience Manager Commerce, Google Shopping, and other popular commerce engines.
Bring UGC into your physical environment with screens
Bring the power of UGC into any physical space where screens are present. Share images, videos and reviews to help you meet business goals like driving conversion, building excitement at events, or increasing brand awareness. Thanks to responsive design in Livefyre, it's easy to format UGC experiences and showcase on any size screen from mobile to jumbotron.

All News Releases By Date
Leeds Metal Site in Maine Added to National Superfund List
Release Date: 09/18/2012
Contact Information: Contact: EPA Public Affairs, (617) 918-1010
(Boston, Mass. – September 18, 2012) – The United State Environmental Protection Agency has finalized the addition of the Leeds Metal Site, in Leeds Maine to the Superfund National Priorities List (NPL). The Leeds Metal Site is one of 12 sites added to the NPL today. The site has received letters of concurrence from state officials supporting the NPL listing.
The NPL is a national list of sites that require further investigation and potential cleanup in order to protect human health and the environment in the long term.
"Taking action today to add the Leeds Metal site to the national Superfund list is an important first-step toward helping the community address contamination issues found there. Superfund has been very effective cleaning contaminated lands across the country, ensuring cleaner and healthier communities," said Curt Spalding, regional administrator of EPA's New England office.
"We are very pleased with the listing decision and believe it will result in significant environmental improvement, which ultimately will allow for redevelopment of the site benefiting the community and the entire area," said Patricia Aho, Commissioner of the Maine Department of Environmental Protection.
Operations at the Leeds Metal site date back to the mid-to late 1800s, however little is known about specific site activities prior to 1969. Between 1969-1984 scrap metal recovery processes took place, performed by a series of site operators. Junk automobiles were shredded onsite, where non-recyclable material, known as auto fluff, was stockpiled. Gasoline and other fluids from junk cars were dumped directly onto the ground, and as many as 100 drums were staged along the tree line in the southern part of the site. The Leeds Fire Department has responded to numerous fires at the site. The site is currently inactive and unoccupied, and appears to have remained abandoned since operations ceased in 1984.
The Maine Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) has removed drummed waste and an abandoned transformer; sampled soil; sampled nearby private drinking water wells to identify possible off-site migration of wastes; overseen a series of investigations to assess the site and groundwater in the area; and installed carbon filtration devices at five homes with volatile organic compound contamination exceeding state health benchmarks. EPA completed removal and remedial investigations in 2011 that documented the need for response actions to address imminent hazards posed by the uncontrolled site wastes.
For all NPL sites, EPA works to identify companies or people responsible for the contamination and to require them to conduct or pay for the investigation and cleanup. For newly listed sites without viable potentially responsible parties, EPA will investigate the full extent of the contamination before starting significant cleanup at the site.
More information is available on sites added to the NPL today, and to sites proposed for addition to the NPL by EPA: https://www.epa.gov/superfund/sites/npl/current.htm

In response to a request from the Louisiana Fishing Community Recovery Coalition, the Louisiana Recovery Authority (LRA) today proposed an allocation of $20 million for Back to the Dock. The dock program is similar to LRA's Road Home program and helps underinsured and uninsured fisherman get Back to the Dock. This much-needed assistance should help Louisiana's proud fishing families pick up the pieces and get back to work.
The coalition members represent many commercial and recreational fishing groups who will stay in communication with LRA's Infrastructure and Transportation Task Force. The LRA is scheduled to hold a final vote with the full quorum on the Back to the Dock allocation on Dec. 15, 2006.
After attending the LRA meeting this morning, Ewell Smith, executive director of the Louisiana Seafood Promotion and Marketing Board, expressed his enthusiasm for this first major step from the LRA toward assisting our fishing families. "We look forward to working with LRA as we execute our Back to the Dock program," he said.
The Center for Natural Resource Economics and Policy with Louisiana State University estimates damage to Louisiana fisheries sectors at nearly $582 million. Losses include commercial fishing vessels, seafood processing facilities, seafood wholesaling plants, and recreational vessels, among other essentials.
Furthermore, rebuilding these communities would reinstall a crossbeam in the economic structure of the state. A recent Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries report pointed out that the pre-storm marine fisheries sectors contributed a total economic benefit to the state exceeding $3.3 billion.
For more information, contact Ewell Smith 504-214-3985 or Mike Voisin at 985-665-8494.

Pacquiao rules out Roach split
Manny Pacquiao has told ESPN he will not follow Amir Khan's lead and sever ties with trainer Freddie Roach.
Khan confirmed last week that he had ended his association with Roach after defeats in his most recent two bouts, against Lamont Peterson and Danny Garcia.
The second of those reverses was particularly damaging to Khan's reputation, as Garcia blew him away during July via fourth-round stoppage to take the WBA light-welterweight crown.
There were parallels with the Brit's first-round knockout loss to Breidis Prescott in 2008, after which Roach was drafted in to repair his career.
Khan has said in recent months that he feels his defence needs tightening, hence the move away from Roach. But Pacquiao still feels the American is the best trainer in the business.
"Yes I am happy working with Freddie - he is a good guy and a nice trainer," he told ESPN. "I am successful working with him."
Asked for this thoughts on Khan's split from Roach, Pacquiao said: "I have no comment to make on that."

Israel came to America from Ukraine in 1906, at the age of 8, with his mother, 3 older sisters, and younger brother. His father and 2 older brothers were already in Brooklyn. As a boy, he was a cantor, which is what the "C" refers to in his name. He took a shot at amateur boxing and vaudeville, as well as being a reporter and salesman. Even though he was one of the youngest children in the family, he became the unofficial head of the family. According to his 1920 US passport application, he was only 22 years old and his employer was trusting him to travel around war torn Europe to see if there was a market for hosiery yet.
In 2002, National Public Radio aired a special series, Yiddish Radio Project. One episode was dedicated to Uncle Israel...actor Carl Reiner did the English translation. I don't understand Yiddish but it sounds like he was very animated as he was dishing out advice to his listeners. He was just as enthusiastic when plugging his longtime sponsor, Carnation Milk. They were so pleased with his promotions they awarded him a pension when he retired. See http://yiddishradioproject.org/ for more information about Uncle Israel and other Yiddish radio stars.
From the stories I've heard, it was difficult to find a larger ego than Uncle Israel's. I firmly believe that before he died, he told his wife to make sure to put his age as 90 on his headstone so it would look like he lived longer than everyone else in the family plot. He was actually 87 when he died. Turns out cousin Ethel beat him...she died in 2006 at the age of 93. He was strict with the boys. My dad remembers that he had to look directly at Uncle Israel while he was speaking to you or he'd grab your chin and turn your head back towards him. He doted on the girls though, especially my dad's sister Linda. He was just a big softie around those blond curls. Linda gets very emotional when we talk about him. Being a big shot did have its advantages. My dad remembers when, as a teenager, he was in the hospital with appendicitis. The hospital wouldn't operate because they didn't have insurance. Uncle Israel stepped in and made sure things were taken care of.

By Martin Nanawa, ChildFund Philippines
Each Nov. 19, World Toilet Day is observed as reminder that 2.6 billion people lack access to toilets and proper sanitation. This year, sanitation is a particular worry in the Philippines where families have been living in a tent city for several months after floods submerged their homes.
In rural areas of the Philippines, toilets – when you can find them –
consist of just a basic bowl with no lift-up seat. These are usually made of ceramic, but among poorer communities, toilets are often made of concrete. Water closets are rare, mainly because the local water supply is irregular. Even where there's water in the tap, many people prefer to flush manually using a pail, claiming it saves more water than a modern flush.
For 297 Filipino families currently living at the relocation tent city at Marianville, located in the Laguna province town of Bay [Ba-e], even the rough, concrete toilets would be preferable, as the camp's makeshift latrines offer only rudimentary sanitation.
Heavy monsoon rains inundated the Philippine capital of Manila and surrounding locales in early August. Floodwater from Manila drained into Laguna Lake, south of the capital, swelling it to dangerous levels. Simultaneous with Manila's recovery, towns like Bay were submerged in water, chest-deep in many areas. Rice fields became lakes and homes drowned in water that quickly turned dark and septic as the flood lingered. Many families had no choice but to evacuate to designated shelters. From there, they were moved to tent camps where they'd wait out the floods, which would recede in the sun, but would quickly fill again when it rained.
Many children reside in the tent community at Marianville. For the past several months, ChildFund has responded with emotional and psychological support activities through Child-Centered Spaces set up at the camp. Children's safety and protection remains paramount as families endure the long wait to return home.
ChildFund's focus on child protection is doubly important in irregular circumstances such as disaster, according to Hubert Par, a ChildFund sponsor relations officer who also serves on the Emergency Response Team. "Children are especially vulnerable in crowded tent camps, particularly as the toilets are common [not private], and are often constructed from available materials," Par says.
Since summer, ChildFund has worked with its local partner to train first responders, local authorities and youth volunteers to educate children and families living in the tent community on simple steps for keeping children safe, especially when nature calls.
ChildFund has worked with camp managers to make sure separate latrines were set up for males and females, with neither facility located more than 50 meters from the camp proper. "We also made sure camp managers and residents kept the discipline of never sending a child to the restrooms alone. Children should be accompanied by a caregiver when going to the common latrines," says Par. "We also inform them of mechanisms by which they can report any child protection issues that may arise," he adds.
Kerzon, 16-year-old youth volunteer, has become a strong advocate for child protection, in addition to his daily response work in the camp, and his duties as a local youth council representative. "As a Child-Centered Space volunteer, I'm proud not just of being able to help, but also because I'm able to share practical knowledge, specifically about child protection," he says.
Although families long to return to and repair their homes, flood levels remain up to 3 feet deep in Bay. Although the comfort of home and a private restroom must wait, ChildFund is working to ensure that the camp's plywood and plastic common latrines are safe for children.
If you would like to help children around the world who lack a proper toilet, please consider a gift to the Children's Greatest Needs fund.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27 (UPI) -- Shadowy groups are running advertisements opposing U.S. President Barack Obama's nomination of Chuck Hagel as defense secretary, The New York Times reports.
The most prominent group opposing Hagel's Senate confirmation -- which the Times said appears likely despite protestations from some Senate Republicans over Hagel's previous comments perceived by some as anti-Israel -- calls itself Americans for a Strong Defense. It is financed by anonymous donors and is running television commercials opposing Hagel in several Republican senators' home states.
Another group, calling itself Use Your Mandate, purports to be a gay rights group -- Hagel, a Republican, once opposed the nomination of an openly gay man to serve as a U.S. ambassador during his time in the Senate -- but the Times said the firm uses a prominent Republican-leaning firm to buy its own commercial time.
A spokesman for Use Your Mandate denied the allegation it's actually a conservative-funded group and said its donors are comprised of Democratic "gay and LGBT people who have been active in campaigns around the country."
The Times noted it's the first time since the Citizens United case, which allowed essentially unlimited anonymous donations to super PACs, a president's Cabinet nomination has faced serious opposition. Previous nominations have drawn heavy Beltway criticism, but never generated campaign-like spending in opposition.

Recommendations to Strengthen Civil Society and Balance Michigan's State Budget
An Analysis of Fiscal-Year 2002-03 Appropriations and Recommendations for 2003-04
If Gov. Jennifer Granholm and the Michigan Legislature need specifics on how to close Michigan's looming $1.7 billion budget deficit, they need look no further than the Mackinac Center for Public Policy's new report on balancing the state budget, released today.
More than 200 specific recommendations from Mackinac Center analysts total more than $2 billion in cost savings and revenue enhancements. All budget reductions, including those involving federal funds, total $3.7 billion. 157 pages. … more

Do Private Schools Serve Difficult-to-Educate Students?
Private K-12 schools are sometimes criticized for accepting only those students most likely to succeed academically, and for leaving the most difficult-to-educate children to the public school system. Is this true? The diversity of private schools includes those that serve exclusively at-risk, incarcerated, or disabled children. The report describes private schools that educate each of these populations, reviews how public schools are contracting with private schools to serve difficult-to-educate students, examines policy implications including cost and school choice, and presents six case studies of Michigan private schools that serve exclusively students with special needs. 71 page … more
Child Foster Care in Michigan: A Privatization Success Story
Few issues are more emotional and controversial than how states care for children who are removed from families because of neglect, abuse or abandonment. This extensively documented report finds that it is less costly to place children in foster care supervised by private agencies than for this service to be provided by Michigan's Department of Social Services. Privatization of this important social service serves as a model for other states. 16 pages. … more
New Hope for Michigan Welfare Reform
Welfare programs cost too much, foster dependency, and tear families apart. Consequently, they actually increase and perpetuate the very poverty which they are intended to remedy. What is required now is a sharp break from prevailing practices-a new philosophy of public assistance. This special report argues that Lansing lawmakers must restructure our state's welfare programs to provide incentives to keep families together and encourage people to work their way off welfare. The sixteen-point program for Michigan welfare reform, the first comprehensive proposal on the subject after the 1990 election, sparked a vigorous statewide debate. Dr. Gerald Miller, then director of the Michigan Department of Social Services, stated in June 1992, "Eleven of the Center's proposals were incorporated into Governor Engler's program." 7 pages. … more
Road Map For a Michigan Renaissance
In the aftermath of the 1990 gubernatorial election, innovative proposals for a new incoming administration and legislature were needed. In a 20-point program, The Mackinac Center calls for a Michigan Grace Commission, welfare reform, trucking deregulation, privatization, repeal of the Prevailing Wage law, and specific tax and spending cuts. … more

NEWSPAPER front pages the day after the budget highlighted the fundamental misjudgment of George Osborne and the coalition government.
The cutting of the 50p top rate of tax and the changes to pension arrangements were as outrageous in their inclusion as the lack of any reduction in VAT or any halt in the increasing rise in fuel prices.
I guess when Nick Clegg said there were much better things than giving the wealthiest in society a tax cut he was persuadedtochangehismindashe hasontheNHS,tuition feesand deficit reduction.
It was not the ordinary taxpayers in Sidemoor I represent that brought austerity to our communities, but the greed and arrogance of some of society's wealthiest.
Instead of sharing the burden fairly and asking those with the deepest pockets to pay their fair share, this Government has put the burden on the lowest and middle income households and pensioners, but then gives millionaires a tax cut.
Locally we have seen transport services cut, library services decimated and youth services being taken apart.
Our NHS will need to make drastic cuts in the upcoming years, while the Government spends £1billion on a top down reorganisation of the NHS that nobody voted for.
Families in Bromsgrove will also face the farcical situation with the botched changes to family allowance that ignores total household income and penalises parents who chose to stay at home and look after their children.
MP Sajid Javid may have cheered his boss' budget, but I doubt many of his constituents will have joined him in his delight.
Yet again those who caused this nightmare have gotten away with it and those on lower and middle incomes and pensioners will pay the price.
This Government displays a chilling mix of arrogance, complacency and incompetence choosing to pit one faction of societyagainsttheotherinorder to distract from its poor economic performance.
This Chancellor has no plan for growth and as his cuts get deeper,sowillthelinesatthejob centre causing misery and increasing our debt.
This budget was not fair and showsonceandfor allweare not all in this together.
Councillor Christopher Bloore, Sidemoor Ward, Bromsgrove

My newset purchase, so far I see a lot of really positive things in this set of rules. While many old timers remember it as "Traveller:2300", it really wasnt directly related to the Traveller universe, so it made sense to rebrand it as something different.. but not so different.
I like the more low tech approach in this game, and so far have not been disappointed with the information contained within it. I'll be running a scenario or two and see how it runs, but so far i dont see any problems.
Print quality of the pdf is good and i really liked the Near Star map supplied at the back of the book. This one even comes with a bonus, Kafer Dawn, which i thought is a good introductory adventure as well.
Overall, this looks to be well laid out and if you are looking for something different that more closely matches the technology levels of today, this is it.
Really can't go wrong with this CT supplement. I liked the utility of just dragging a random guy off the list when the players got off my well lined path and started exploring again. How dare they enjoy themselves during my adventure!
Anyway, its a solid resource document for when you are in a pinch for some random people and the price is great.
Of all of the PP products, i liked this one the least. While not a bad product by any means, i just didnt think it brought enough to the table. While i can say i used this from time to time, i really have never utilized this supplement to anywhere close to fully. If you do get it, get it as part of the bundle and save a bit of cash.
This PP product was not as well rounded as i would have hoped, although the information contained within is good if you didnt already have Merchant Prince. The merchandise array was a bit on the weak side, but it isnt a bad supplement by any means. If you get it, get it as part of the bundle.
Useful listing of equipment and items along with some nice figures that illustrate the items. I believe that this information would be useful in almost any campaign that is run, no matter what the era. Yes, there are some production issues, but it doesnt detract greatly from the value of this as a resource document.
As far as T4 goes, this is one of the books you should own if you run a T4 campaign. I liked the information detailed in it and i think there is value here for almost any campaign.
This is one of the few solo adventures i have ever seen put out for Traveller, and for that it gets a thumbs up. I found it fairly easy to follow along, although the plot was a little on the thin side. The introductory material to the Twilight Sector was useful.
If you run anything in the T4 era, i would say this is the main source of information you should utilize. I wasnt exactly thrilled with the lack of maps and the bit of confusion i had on the size of the original Third Imperium, but i understand that this cant be set in stone. Overall, excellent product for the t$ campaign.
Another quality Mongoose Traveller product that covers the Reft Sector. I loved the detail in this just as much as i did with the Marches book. It's a great addition to any campaign. It's a top quality product that you won't be disappointed with. Again, price is a bit on the high side, but if you are planning on running anything in this sector, you should get this book.
Another Mongoose product that i thought added a lot of veyr good background to the sector that it covers. I've never been a huge fan of Mongoose Traveller, but I was impressed with the quality as well as the information contained within this document. Definitely on the high side as far as price is concerned, but you really cant go wrong with this if you plan to run a campaign in the Marches.
I really couldnt get into this adventure at any level, and just never really found a use for it in my adventures. That being said, while on the generic side, there is certainly nothing wrong with this adventure.
A bit on the generic side for my tastes, but nothing is actually wrong with the adventure itself. You cant beat the price. I would suggest this to anyone trying to get a campaign started and no ideas on how to get it off the ground. The price certainly helps.
Probably my favorite GAS product. I liked the ship layout, and the adventure was actually pretty easy to integrate into my campaign. The price isnt as high as some of the other GAS products, but there really is only one ship detailed here. I would think most would say the price is a little steep for what the document contains.
Another GAS document that i think provides a lot of variety to the ship types for any campaign. Not a huge amount of info here, but what i saw i liked. The price is a lot lower than some of the other GAS collections, and that for me was a plus.
I'm a map guy, and as such, products like this that are collections of maps and information are always at the top of my list for purchases. I liked the entire GAS series, but this was one of my favorites only because it included the space stations as well as some archaic small craft that could be used as plot devices in my campaigns. I admit this is a little pricey, but i thought that this was worth it.

Trigeminal neuralgia is a nerve disorder that causes a stabbing or electric-shock-like pain in parts of the face.
Alternative Names
Tic douloureux
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
The pain of trigeminal neuralgia comes from the trigeminal nerve. This nerve carries the feelings of touch and pain from the face, eyes, sinuses, and mouth to the brain.
The condition usually affects adults, but it may affect anyone at any age. Trigeminal neuralgia may be part of the normal aging process.
Trigeminal neuralgia may be caused by:
Multiple sclerosis
- Pressure on the trigeminal nerve from a swollen blood vessel or tumor
Often, no cause is found.
Doctors are more likely to find a cause in a person who is younger than age 40.
- Very painful, sharp electric-like spasms that usually last a few seconds or minutes, but can become constant
- Pain is usually only on one side of the face, often around the eye, cheek, and lower part of the face
- Pain may be triggered by touch or sounds
- Painful attacks of trigeminal neuralgia can be triggered by common, everyday activities, such as:
- Brushing teeth
- Chewing
- Drinking
- Eating
- Lightly touching the face
- Shaving
Signs and tests
A brain and nervous system (neurologic) examination is usually normal.
Tests that are done to look for the cause of the problem include:
- Blood tests
MRI of the head
- Trigeminal reflex testing
Your primary care physician, a neurologist, or a pain specialist may be involved in your care.
Certain medicines sometimes help reduce pain and the rate of attacks. These medicines include:
- Anti-seizure drugs (carbamazepine, gabapentin, lamotrigine, phenytoin, valproate, and pregabalin)
- Muscle relaxants (baclofen, clonazepam)
- Tricyclic antidepressants (amitriptyline, nortriptyline, or carbamazepine)
Some patients may need surgery to relieve pressure on the nerve. Techniques include:
- Cutting or destroying part of the trigeminal nerve
- Destroying the trigeminal nerve with a needle or probe placed through the skin using radiofrequency ablation or an injection of glycerol
- Electrostimulation
- Percutaneous balloon microcompression
- Removal of the tumor (when a tumor is the cause)
Stereotactic radiosurgery(Gamma knife)
- Surgery to remove a blood vessel that is putting pressure on the trigeminal nerve (called microvascular decompression, or MVD)
Expectations (prognosis)
How well you do depends on the cause of the problem. If there is no disease causing the problem, treatment can provide at leastsome relief.
However, the pain may become constant and severe in some patients.

Do We Need A 'Circle Section' Registry To Prove Digital Ownership?
from the interesting-ideas dept
Entering the fray with a unique idea as an attempt to solve that, some folks (and a company who likely seeks to commercially benefit from this idea) are trying to convince the Copyright Office to create a new consumer ownership registration system, dubbed "circle section" after the character they'd like to use for it:
Unfortunately, they're marketing it like lawyers, rather than marketers, so there's a lot of verbiage surrounding the description everywhere they talk about it, but the basic idea is pretty straightforward (if I understand it correctly):
If you buy something digital, you can "register" your ownership right in that particular copy, which then would grant you basic ownership rights, including rights to format shift the content and to resell it under first sale rights.The folks behind this project have set up a Change.org petition in support of this, where they're seeking 200,000 signatures, though, currently they have very, very few (again, perhaps an issue of being lawyers, not marketers). Separately, they've chosen an odd strategy for pushing this effort: filing a petition with the Copyright Office as a part of the process by which the Copyright Office comes down from the mountain every three years and declares which products can ignore the DMCA's anti-circumvention clause. Except... this project has nothing to do with that. So, the backers have filed a separate motion, in which they basically admit that this is outside the rules... but they're doing it this way because if the Copyright Office accepts the proposal, than the whole question of ignoring anti-circumvention issues becomes moot, because a registry of consumer ownership would make it pointless. Or something like that. You can read the full motion below.
This seems like an incredibly long shot no matter how you look at it, and I'm not sure that trying to jump into the magical anti-circumvention clearance debate is such a smart move here. That said, I can see how a proposal along these lines could be interesting as a possible way to deal with the question of whether or not you "own" the digital products you thought you bought. At the very least, I'd be interested in hearing what other people think about it. Personally, I wonder if it's really necessary, or if it would just become seen as another burden for users, needing to register and track their registrations.

VERGENNES — By a chance of fate, two New York artists happened upon Creative Space Gallery on Vergennes' Main Street last Saturday, and left with unexpectedly fierce encouragement and inspiration for their own work.
"I think that the work in this gallery is some of the most innovative that I've seen," said one of the artists, Jill Luigs of Oswego, N.Y.

FARMINGTON — There is an ongoing dispute on Sheepboro Road between longtime resident Dick Maynard and town officials that may eventually hinge on a Strafford Superior Court judge's interpretation of Title III, Town Cities, Village Districts and Unincorporated Places, Chapter 31, Powers and Duties of Towns, Powers as to Shade and Ornamental Trees, Section 31:52.
This reads as follows: Rights of Owners. — Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed to deprive the owner of real estate of the right to plant, rear and protect any tree between the carriage path and sidewalk in any public street or highway on which his estate is situate, if it does not interfere with the public travel.
In fact, the eventual outcome of this long-running battle may come down to the judge's interpretation of those last nine words "if it does not interfere with the public travel."
The trees in question are three ancient maples, from which Maynard still taps sap for syrup every spring. He reckons they are almost 200 years old, and they stand between his stone wall and the unpaved roadway, with part of their root systems clawing, under a strip of lawn, toward the road.
Maynard is a 70-year-old retiree from Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, where he worked as an electrical engineer for over 30 years. He has lived at 77 Sheepboro Road for almost 45 years, and occasionally hosts groups interested in viewing his maple sugaring operation.
Back in the 1980s, then Road Agent Clark Hackett came out to see Maynard, to talk about the granite blocks that the landowner had set in front of the maple trees to protect their roots from any gouging of a snowplow wing in the winter. Hackett asked Maynard to put in a marker, visible above the snow, to remind his guys the low-lying blocks were there, albeit they were covered with a foot or two of snow. Maynard, accordingly, installed a four-foot high granite marker, and more than 20 years went by in relative peace.
Then, a few years ago, while Joel Moulton was head of Public Works, a plow snapped one of the granite blocks, and Maynard complained. Later, he alleges he was told by a town employee, working a grader, "I can make your life miserable." His rapport with town officials suffered a further blow after Scott Hazelton took over as Public Works director, and the issue of the protruding blocks became an issue discussed by the Board of Selectmen.
Hazelton's view was that Maynard's protruding granite blocks, about 15 of them, spread along his frontage where the maple trees were growing, were a hazard to a passing snowplow, as the wing could clip them. A majority of the selectmen agreed, and ordered Maynard to remove them.
Instead, he buried them in his lawn, just above the root systems, and just below the surface of the ground, save for one, in front of the largest tree (see photograph) which stuck up an inch or two above the surface, a couple of feet back from the edge of the road.
Maynard's rationale was that the buried blocks would still protect the tree roots, if a plow gouged into his lawn, but this did not cut the mustard with town officials.
Thus, on Thursday, Dec. 7, with still no snow on the ground, Maynard's attorney, Manny Krasner, met with Farmington Town Administrator Keith Trefethen out on Sheepboro Road. They agreed that the road should be, and was 18 feet wide, and that the measurement from the far side of the road to Maynard's one slightly protruding block was 20 feet.
"I hoped this could be worked out with discussions," said Krasner, speaking on Dec. 8.
To further this end, Krasner had suggested to Trefethen that he meet with selectmen to work things out, and thought that his client would offer to bury the one slightly higher block a bit deeper so that it, too, was below the lawn's surface.
On the afternoon of Dec. 7, however, Krasner was sent an email to say the town would be out on the morning of Dec. 8 to remove all of the buried blocks.
On Friday morning, a town backhoe arrived on Sheepboro Road, as did two police cruisers, several town trucks, the full road crew, the Public Works Director and the town administrator.
Preparations for a confrontation proved unnecessary, however.
"My back is against the wall," said the quiet-spoken Maynard, metaphorically. He was looking over his rock wall recording the methodical unearthing of his granite blocks on a camera.
Police Chief Kevin Willey, sensing the situation had no explosive potential, departed after a while, as did the other police officer and Trefethen a little later.
Meanwhile, as Hazelton recorded the operation on a video camera, the town crew probed for granite blocks with a pry bar, carefully extracted them with the backhoe, and placed them gently on the back of two town trucks, from where they were unloaded, at the end of the operation, to a place of Maynard's choosing, further along his 15-acre property.
Town workers then raked over the disturbed earth on his lawn, and added some new topsoil that they had brought with them on anther truck.
"I am disturbed that the town has gone out of its way to do this for no compelling reason," said Krasner, who added that he will now consult with an outside expert in this area of the law, to ascertain if Maynard's rights under RSA 31:52 have been trampled. If so, it is likely that the issue will be pursued in Strafford County Superior Court, with both Maynard and the Town of Farmington incurring legal costs.
Maynard's imminent concern is that roots of his ancient maple trees will be vulnerable to gouging with a town snowplow over the coming months, and said he was apprehensive that he might be subject to revenge for standing up to the Town.
"The whole road is littered with boulders. Why are these a hazard and not those over there?" asked Maynard, pointing to other potential hazards to a plow. Krasner, too, was uneasy about the town's focus on Maynard's stretch of road, which he noted gave 20-feet of clearance even with the one protruding block (now removed), when there were other spots on Sheepboro Road not 18 feet wide.

Tuesday, May 01, 2012 - Mirek and Jakub - FULL CONTACT
Mirek and Jakub - FULL CONTACT
We brought Mirek Ceslar and Jakub Nakuda together and it turned out to be a great idea. Jakub is the first one we see, and he is caressing his body, running his hands over his chest and groin. He sits on the bed and continues, as Mirek arrives and stand watching him for a while. Mirek has a big smile on his face, so clearly he has something in mind. He moves to the bed and kneels behind Jakub and begins to caress his body and kiss him. Jakub responds to Mirek's overtures and kisses him back. Mirek removes Jakub tee-shirt and begins to kiss his nipples and chest. Jakub then also kneels and removes Mirek's top giving access to his chest too. They spend some time, taking turns, in kissing each other, and licking and kissing the body, as the kneel facing each other. Next the remove each other's jeans, so they are just in their underwear and Jakub lays down on the bed. Mirek lays next to him, on his side, and they kiss some more as Jakub's hand takes Mirek's exposed cock in his hand. Mirek is also rubbing Jakub's cock thru his underwear. Mirek is keen to go further and removes Jakub's underwear and quickly goes down on his rock hard cock. Mirek is an expert cocksucker and he works his mouth over the cock sucking hard and as his head bobs up and down on it. Mirek then removes his own undies and kneels by Jakub's head, presenting his cock for sucking. Jakub obliges, sucking on that big cock and alos sucking the balls into his mouth. After the sucking Jakub moves down, and with Mirek's legs in the air, begins to rim his ass hole. His tongue laps at the hole, and then he begins to suck on Mirek's cock again. Soon Jakub wants even more and sits on that throbbing cock, sliding it deep in his ass. He rides that cock real well, bouncing up and down, and then letting Mirek take over, fucking his cock up the bumper chute as far as he can. Back to Jakub to ride again, he really works his ass onto Mirek's cock, riding it real well, Bouncing up and down, taking that shaft all the way in his ass. The guys change position, with Jakub on his knees, so Mirek can ride him doggy style. Mirek's dick slams into that eager hole, with his balls bouncing against it as he fucks. Jakub moans as he takes that cock, relishing every moment. They move to a spoon position and Mirek starts fucking Jakub again, with Jakub wanking on his cock as he takes Mirek's. Mirek moves again, kneeling on the bed with his dick deep in Jakub's ass. Jakub is wanking hard and fast as his ass takes Mirek's cock and very soon he starts moaning louder as he shoot a nice big load. Mirek continues to fuck that ass until he too is ready to dump his load. He moves to Jakub's head and and shoots his cum over his face. Jakub then takes that sticky cock in his mouth to clean it off completely. Mirek then lays down, next to Jakub, head to toe and they relax and fall asleep. What a lovely scene, from two very good models.

We have a great line-up for our latest Wank Party, Tomek Sirnad, Kaja Kolomaz, Daniel Malecky, Milos Zambo and Lukas Pribyl. Lukas, Kaja and Milos are playing ball while Tomek is barbecuing some meat, watched by Daniel. When the food is ready the guys all sit around the table and open some beer as Tomek serves the food. Then, having eaten they begin to play ball again. Lukas leaves them playing and goes inside. He strips off and towels himself. He is joined by Milos who starts to caress him and soon Lukas' cock begins to grow. Milos takes hold of it, feeling how hard it is. He continues to caress Lukas' body and soon drops his own shorts to reveal his hard cock too. The two cocks come together as Lukas begins to feel Milos body too. Milos takes hold of both cocks, in one hand and wanks them. Milos is really turned on and goes down to suck on Lukas' hard cock. He takes it in his mouth and begins to suck and, soon, Lukas starts to fuck Milos face. The other guys all arrive and catch them at it, and soon begin to join in. Milos sucks Lukas again and then hands over to Tomek to taste Lukas' cock. Kaja then begins to suck on Milos rock hard cock too. Tomek's cock needs sucking too so the guys move around so that Daniel and Kaja can suck him as he sucks Milos. Kaja turns and starts to suck Lukas as Kaja sucks his cock. Daniel sucks on his balls at the same time. Tomek switches back and forth between Lukas and Milos and Daniel takes over sucking Tomek while Kaja feels his balls. As we leave them, for the time being Tomek is sucking on Lukas who, still rock hard, wanks on Milos big cock. All the guys are having a great time and things will get even hotter in part 2.

Last night was Pálení čarodějnic, the Witches' Night. Yesterday, when Aida and I went for lunch in the Kamp Park, we discovered that the City Police would sponsor a witch burning that evening in the park. I always loved the witch burnings of previous years. Here's a good story on the tradition:
Aida and I were in the Park with bells on. I made one mistake, I didn't bring my monopod for my video camera so I get above all the heads in front of me. The burning was just like those I witnessed years ago.
Witch burning night is always an excellent time for straight guys to dress in drag as witches and they do. Below is the film I made of the event. Soon, I'll post it to YouTube in HD. And then I'll post a link to the YouTube video on the Blog. With the Newsletter deadline, there just wasn't time today.
It must be said, Aida didn't enjoy the party all that much: too many people, too many witches, too many drag queens. But I had fun, and I hope they do it again on Kampa Island next year.
I see our most recent Wank Party is on tap for next Newsletter, so I'll post my first Sneak Peek on the Blog tomorrow, promise.
In the newsletter today we have some excellent sets, starting with Mirek Ceslar and Jakub Nakuda. We also have a lovely massage with Martin Poupa and follow up with Tomas Jirasko's Erotic Video and Session Stills shoot of Akhmed Virt and Marek Havlis.
Our castings today are Tomas Tocik, Martin Bortlik, Vaclav Fako and Tomas Sudik. My pick for today is Martin Bortlik.
