I've only been to the the Big Easy, three times–but it was love at first sight. It's a city of life, food, music, and fun. I will always remember it as it was the last time I was there in September 2003. The photos in this post are a small sampling of this last trip, which will now hold even more precious memories. My hope and prayers are that it can recover and will be rebuilt. It is heart wrenching to see the disaster that has fallen on that great city, and its fine people.
When I last visited, I stayed right in the French Quarter, at this lovely hotel, the Palace d' Armes. It was walking distance from all the sights in the French Quarter–most important, in my book was the world famous Cafe du Monde, where they served the world famous
beignets–the world's tastiest pastries. If you don't know what a beignet is, check here. You used to be able to buy the mix online from the Cafe Du Monde website, and try to make them at home. We tried once, but they weren't the same as we bought in New Orleans.
Now, the only place I know, other than New Orleans that makes anything close is Downtown Disney in Anaheim, where the have a Ralph Brennan's Cafe, that also serves beignets.
In Jackson Square, the fortune tellers and other street folk line up early to get a start on the tourist trade that walks the French Quarter nightly. On Decatur street along the river front in the French Market section of the French Quarter you can hire a carriage driver to take you throughout the French Quarter.
Another shot along Decatur Street of one of the many colorful street folk that line the French Quarter on any given night (or day it seems). Above right, is a shot along the water front adjacent to the French Quarter where it meets the Mississippi River. Interestingly it was Lake Ponchartrain that swept into the city from the levee breach, rather than the river.
Above left is the old Jax Brewery also on the waterfront, and off Decatur Street. Above right another shot of the long line of Tarrot card readers and fortune tellers ever present each evening in Jackson Square, just off the French Quarter.
Above left is the waterfront trolley, which you can take all along the water front. Above right, one of the many mimes, who entertain throughout the French Quarter. Some are quite talented.
Above left is The Cat's Meow, one of the dozens of bars along Bourbon Street. It is located at the corner of Bourbon and St. Peter's Streets. If you look closely in the upper right window pane as you face the door, there is a live internet cam, which prior to Katrina would broadcast live shots of people at the corner just outside the bar. One day, it will broadcast again, and the party will resume. Above right, Bourbon Street in the early afternoon, is just beginning to come to life.
Above left is a shot of Pat O'Brien's, likely the French Quarter's most famous bar. Above left is one of the myriad of the voodoo houses in the French Quarter. Everything seems to make some money in the French Quarter.
These two shots above are from world famous Pat O'Brien's Bar in the French Quarter. The left shot is inside their Piano Bar, where dual pianos entertain the patrons nightly. I don't drink; however, I have sat for hours in this bar just listening to the tunes from the dual and dueling piano players, and watching the people. In the left shot you can also see Mr. Eddie Gabriel, aka Mr. Eddie, playing his aluminum tray with thimbled fingers. Mr. Eddie invented that act in 1945 during world war two. He has been a regular at Pat O'Brien's since 1937. You can read a bit of his history with Pat O'Brien's here and here. CNN reported on 9/4/05 that Mr. Eddie was missing, and had not been heard from since Katrina struck. He was 95 when Katrina struck.
Bourbon Street comes to life at night. The left shot above is early in the evening, on Friday, 9/26/03, and things are just getting warmed up on Bourbon Street. You can imagine what it looks like on Mardi Gras. Above right is one of the famous Bourbon Street balconies where many nights you can see more than just beads. You can even rent one of them for your own balcony party.
Above left, another balcony. And above right is early morning on Decatur Street, looking at Jax Brewery. It will be a long journey back for New Orleans and her residents; however, from what little I know about the city and those who live there, they have the love of life and their great city and will compel them to the task. God Bless to all victims of this horrible tragedy, and may they rebuild their unique way of life.

text: In previously published research, Mercy Health Physician Charles J. Glueck, MD and his team found that men and women with a previously undiagnosed tendency to increased blood clots developed dangerous blood clots as soon as one month after starting testosterone replacement therapy. Dr. Glueck's latest research, published in the medical journal Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/ Hemostasis on August 7, 2013, has further underscored the risk to men of embarking on testosterone replacement therapy without first having a simple blood test to determine whether they are at high risk for blood clots.Dr. Glueck studied 596 men who had been hospitalized in the last three years for deep venous thrombosis and/or pulmonary emboli (DVT-PE) to see if he could determine how often external testosterone use led to the subsequent development of DVT-PE."Our research found that 1.2% of men who landed in the hospital with dangerous and potentially lethal blood clots in the deep veins of the legs or in the lungs developed these clots within three months of starting testosterone therapy," said Dr. Glueck. "Not one of these men knew previously that they had an inherited clotting disorder that put them at greater risk for developing clots, nor did their providers test them before putting them on testosterone therapy.""All men should have a simple blood test to determine whether they are at high risk for blood clots before embarking on a course of testosterone therapy," he warns.Naturally occurring testosterone helps men maintain their bone density, muscle mass, red blood cell production, fat distribution and has some role in sex drive. As men age, their testosterone levels begin to decrease. More and more, men are turning to supplemental testosterone therapy, which has been available for more than 60 years, in a bid to regain their feelings of youthful vitality. However, Dr. Glueck and his associates have reported 18 cases in men and four in women of pulmonary emboli (blood clots in the lungs) or osteonecrosis (blood clots in the bones) after patients started testosterone therapy. All of these men and women had a previously undiagnosed inherited tendency for increased blood clots, specifically the Factor V Leiden mutation (present in at least 5% of all men) and high Factor VIII (present in at least 5% of all men). The body chemically converts a portion of the testosterone to the female hormone Estradiol. Estradiol interacts with the clotting factors to increase the likelihood of blood clotting up to one hundred fold, leading to pulmonary emboli. In addition to the emboli, patients in Dr. Glueck's studies have suffered other thrombotic, or blood clotting, events, including:• loss of vision in one eye due to a temporary lack of blood flow the retina• osteonecrosis of the hip, which is caused by a disruption of the blood supply to the bone and can lead to the destruction of the hip joint "Men and women should not undergo testosterone therapy without first having blood tests for increased risk of clotting due to the danger of blood clots," said Dr. Glueck. "Before starting testosterone, men and women should get a blood test for common inherited risk factors for clotting, including the Factor V Leiden mutation, homocysteine and high Factors VIII and XI."Dr. Charles J. Glueck and his colleagues (who are Medical Residents at The Jewish Hospital – Mercy Health), Drs. Caitlin Richardson-Royer, Reiker Schultz, Tim Burger, Dedrick Bowe and Jagjit Padda and statistician Ping Wang, PhD, all of the Mercy Health - Cholesterol Center conducted the study. Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis published the study on August 7, 2013.

Ivy leaguer, folk pop chameleon, musical author, new media guru, with an increasing amount of toes being dipped into activism, Erin McKeown's lyrical inkwell often runneth over. So goes the reason why the veteran multi-instrumentalist has spun turn-of-phrases that range from bubbly, Feist heartbreak to political, MSNBC journalist collaborations. In the wake of her eigth effort, Manifestra, on the porch of her Massechusettes home, we talked her pre-Zooropa love for Bono lyrics, the difference between true and close rhyme – the former being boring – how to feminize 'manifesto' like a champ and a plethora of other things that make her aggressively kaladoscopic verse and chorus talents tick, her love for Monty Python absurdity notwithstanding.
You studied ethnomusicology at Brown? How has that effected your lyrical process?
Maybe it's unleashed my inner-desire for cleverness. Or for like puns, or burring little jokes and references and things that add this extra layer of ha-ha to something. So even if I might be writing about something that's heavier, I'm adding a layer of entertaining or clever language in a way that an old-style vaudeville act song might do. That has always been a part of what I do. I probably was exposed to it first with my studies of ethnomusicology.
What would you say are the most important tenants of a successful lyric?
I don't think it has to make sense. I would say that that's like second or third or fourth down the list. To me the actual first thing would be the sound. If you just define a group of words that somehow sound right together, that's a first tenant for me. If message-wise they make sense, that's great. Or they make sense within themselves. But if it just sounds good, and it's the next right thing for the song – that's the best lyric for me. Sometimes shit that makes no sense is a great lyric. But form a sonic standpoint – how does consonance work in a line? What vowels are being used? How does it feel when it's sung. How does it look when it's on paper, but how does it feel when it's sung? Vowels and consonance succeed better when they're sung vs. when you see 'em on a piece of paper. And it's also different from singer to singer.
What's the earliest, visceral moment you can remember as a songwriter when you fell in love with a certain lyricist or lyric?
I was in the grocery store today and overhead the song "A Whiter Shade of Pale." It's a classic from the late 60s by a band called Procul Harum. I don't know where I heard it as a 10 or 12-year-old. But I remember my piano teacher got me the sheet music for it and thinking then the words were great. And they're not real specific. You're not really sure exactly what's happening. But there's somewhat of a story there. And just a lot of really interesting words that are thrown in. And then the main thing there, "a whiter shade of pale on things" – 'cause what the fuck does that mean? – but it just sounds right. And I would say also probably early U2, I was really into. I always had U2 lyrics – which are not necessarily known for being fantastic – but I have actually always said at least up to Auchtung Baby that Bono made really great lyrics and that maybe he got lazy after that.
And how has that evolved? What kind of lyricists do you admire these days?
I don't know if I could name anyone off hand. I'm getting ready to write a musical. And so I've been thinking about and listening to what's happening in contemporary musical theatre right now. And most of it I don't like because I think lyrics need to occupy a place in between telling directly what's happening and being totally obscure. And I think like contemporary musical theatre lyrics for the most part are not song-like enough for me. They're too much of like the delivering of information, without doing that poetically. So I've been listening to a lot of stuff and trying to think about how you can still make something that's very singable and song-like first. But that is also delivering information the way that you need to in a theatre piece.
I don't want to lose a great rhyme. There's a long-running argument in musical theatre about a true rhyme or a close rhyme. And people get into really heavy camps about this. And say that in musical theatre you really have to true rhyme everything. So 'you' and 'blue' have to rhyme. So that people aren't distracted by that and just get the information. And then there's another camp of people which I am squarely in which is that that is boring to listen to. And like you can deviate form a true rhyme into a close rhyme or even an abrasive rhyme that is fun, that will let the listener know that they're listening to something that is crafted but not distract them from the information.
What would you say of your own lyrics in your catalogue that are most important to you?
I'm sitting on my front porch right now and I'd probably have to go and look at iTunes to think of what songs I've made. There are some songs that are kind of in the earlier part of my career where I was doing more things that were more vaudeville, jazz-oriented that were kind of more showy on a lyrical front. Like here's an interesting rhyme or phrase. And so there's a song of mine called "Melody," that I would probably put in that category. Another song of mine called "The Little Cowboy" [LISTEN] that I would put in that category. But then like later stuff, and things that I've been working on more recently are – a song like "The Jailer" that comes form my newest record. Which I was really trying to ride that line between delivering information – in this case like politics with something that's still singable. And so I really like that song for that reason.
While we're talking about your new record what does Manifestra mean? Is that your way of feminizing manifesto? What were you trying to do there?
I was trying to do anything really. I hadn't realized I made up a word. That song I wrote really really early in the morning. I've written hundreds of songs, but very, very few of them I've written the way I wrote that song. Which is basically like I dreamed the song and it woke me up. And I was woken up by hearing that first line – both the music and the lyrics. And so I was not staying at home, I was staying at a venue that I played the night before. And I just went down into the venue space – it was like 6 a.m. – and just wrote out the whole thing. And the word 'manifestra' was in there, and I didn't think twice about it. I probably was thinking 'manifesto', but it just, in that sort of like half-sleep state, 'manifestra' just got put down on the page. And later I thought about it and I thought 'well that's kind of a cool word', so I'll just let it be.
But to me it's like related to 'manifesto' because it's a statement of purpose. But it's got a feminine feel to it. And then it also reminds me of the word orchestra. Which is a word I really, really like. There's something about the way that word is put together I really like, and not a word that you would think of being sung. Or-ches-tra – three syllables. I'm sometimes not a fan of three-syllable words. Or taking two-syllable words and making them three-syllable words. I think that's terrible when people do that.
There's a rumor that you're a nerd for Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. How is that an influence on your writing?
In a similar way that Monty Python has had an influence, which is just sort of an irreverent, clever, absurdist, but at the same time making like really true observations about humans. And those are the things that I've tried to do – that's what I'd like to do with my music. Which again is make something that's pleasurable but has some substance. Pleasurable. Even silly. But still have some substance.
We heard of your love for categorizing music, explaining society's need to group moods, and your own, saying, "Imagine if you would walk into a record store and see a section called 'break up' or 'sunny day'? If you could place all your records in a store accordingly, what records would go in which sections?
Let me see if I can work backwards. Manifestra would be 'Righteous Political Rally' section. I have an album about how much I hate Christmas, so that would just be in the 'Fuck You' section. Hundreds of Lions would be 'Breakup'. I have a standards record that would be in a 'Sunday Afternoon Drinking, White Glove, Big Hat' section. There's another break-up record in there – We Will Become Like Birds. So that's a another one for the 'Breakup' section. Grand which sort of inspired that comment about my record store is 'Top Down Sunny Day Driving' section. And Distillation, which is the first one, would be the 'College Years Drug Fueled Cleverness' section.

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Steve Spurrier brought some of his closest
staffers -- and family members -- with him to
South Carolina.
Spurrier said his son, Steve Spurrier Jr., would leave his
position at Arizona and join his dad as South Carolina receivers
coach, probably by Tuesday.
Mark Smith, with Spurrier at Florida and in the NFL with the
Washington Redskins, will take over South Carolina's strength
program. And Jamie Speronis, with Spurrier since his earliest days
with the Gators, joins the Gamecocks as director of football
"We're still talking to a lot of guys," Spurrier said Monday,
sitting in his new office next to Williams-Brice Stadium.
Spurrier, who won a national title in 12 seasons at Florida,
returned to college football last week when he was named as Lou
Holtz's replacement at South Carolina. Last week, Spurrier said
three of Holtz's staff members -- Rick Stockstill, David Reaves and
Ron Cooper -- would remain with the Gamecocks.
Spurrier said Stockstill, one of the region's best and fiercest
recruiters, would be South Carolina's recruiting coordinator.
Positions were still in flux for Stockstill, last year's receivers
coach, and Cooper, last year's secondary coach, Spurrier said.
But Reaves, the son of Spurrier's good friend and former Florida
assistant John Reaves, would likely work as an assistant
quarterbacks coach. "I'm usually the one working with the
quarterbacks," Spurrier said, smiling.
Letters were sent to the rest of South Carolina's assistants,
including quarterbacks coach Skip Holtz and defensive coordinator
Rick Minter, informing them that they probably would not be
retained. But Spurrier wouldn't rule out hiring other people from
Lou Holtz's final staff, saying if they wanted to hang around and
wait to see if they got a call from the new coach, that was OK.
Spurrier said he won't give out an offensive coordinator title,
preferring to do most of the play-calling himself.
So the next big move appears to be defensive coordinator.
Spurrier has talked Marshall assistant Jim Collins, Houston Texans
assistant Jon Hoke and outgoing Florida defensive coordinator
Charlie Strong about positions on his staff but wouldn't say which
ones. All have worked with Spurrier in the past.
Spurrier said he wants to get a defensive coordinator in soon
and let him have some input in the rest of the defensive
Spurrier will spend much of the next few weeks putting his staff
together and swaying football recruits who might not have been
interested in the Gamecocks before. "We got a lot of in home
visits," Spurrier said. "We're getting a good response."

A woman holds a placard showing victims of hazing at a rally against conscription in Moscow this month (ITAR-TASS) August 16, 2006 -- A Russian military court has sentenced an officer to six years in prison for punching a conscript to death.
Interfax news agency reported today that the officer struck out at soldiers in March 2004 in anger at the lack of order at barracks in Sofrino, northeast of Moscow.
A court spokesman is quoted as saying that the conscript's heart stopped after a powerful blow to the chest.
The officer was also banned from serving in positions of responsibility for two and a half years after he finishes his jail term.

Many daters have been Ghosted, many daters have Ghosted, and the NY Times even wrote an article about Ghosting after Charlize Theron Ghosted her then boyfriend Sean Penn. Since it's at the forefront of modern dating, we wanted to sit down and talk about ghosting. Is it ever okay to Ghost, have we ever Ghosted, when is it never okay to Ghost, we really wanted to tackle the topic from all sides. Oh and yes, we do address Charlize ghosting on Sean Penn. Spoiler alert: We were, surprisingly, okay with a man who has a history of being violent toward women being Ghosted. Who would have guessed?
No dating advice questions this time around, just an honest discussion on Ghosting. We get into the best times to ghost, the worst times, also: BANTER.

An empty dark hole
where anything happens.
Where only misery and great agony
is responsible for it all.
A great happiness.
For some it's only pain,
for others it's great saddness
for the once loved,
only lost now in thier own happiness.

Experts tasked with restoring damaged and faded works of art have a new tool in their toolbox: Thermal Quasi-Reflectography (TQR), a process which uses the mid-infrared part of the spectrum to reveal images invisible to the naked eye. (photos)
TQR was used recently to investigate two works of Renaissance art: the Zavattari frescos in the Chapel of Theodelinda and The Resurrection by the Italian Renaissance artist Piero della Francesca. The process revealed missed details and touch-ups missed by earlier restorations.

All major religious traditions carry basically the same message, that is love, compassion and forgiveness the important thing is they should be part of our daily lives. – His Holiness the Dalai Lama
We loosely talk of Self-realization, for lack of a better term. But how can one realize or make real that which alone is real? All we need to do is to give up our habit of regarding as real that which is unreal. All religious practices are meant solely to help us do this. When we stop regarding the unreal as real, then Reality alone will remain, and we will be That. – Sri Ramana Maharshi
This being human is a guest house. Every morning is a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor… Welcome and entertain them all. Treat each guest honorably. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in. Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide from beyond. – Rumi

Being stopped for some kind of drunk driving offense is one of the worst things that can occur to you. Driving while intoxicated is also called DWI. This is more frequently referred to as a DUI (driving under the influence) however is described as a OWI in other states. Being picked up a DWI is not the like getting pulled over for speeding or having a tail light out. It is even worse than being stopped for negligent driving or speeding. A DWI will result in you investing at least one night in jail, getting your vehicle lugged, and a huge fine.

Hi Everyone,
Here we are one day from September 2016 already. Iraq is moving at an exhilarated rate forward beyond my wildest dreams. Yes- they have a target timeframe for better security, better stability thus better days ahead. I can hardly believe the news.
I was told by my contacts that we should now watch for the HCL. I listen to them since they have never strung me along or gave me falsified information. So lo and behold what do we see in the recent news?
Recommitted work towards the finalization of the oil and gas law. Abadi and Jubouri are not going to stop until they get the draft oil and gas law ( or HCL), passed in parliament to become legal and a binding law. All the news points in a positive direction. If you can't see the priority then you are blind and I simply can no longer help you see the trees from the forest. I can only explain so much in one news letter as I build upon each news letter to paint the full picture.
I don't mean to "bore" anyone with more news of HCL today and I hope you can stay awake long enough to read today's news letter. It is what it is and so we watch and wait.
Amazingly after almost 8 years finally we experienced the Amnesty law passed last week. Now amazingly, another miracle is about to happen. We will soon see the HCL passed.
Don't see the progress? Don't you see the amazing miracles happening?
Iraqi gov't, Kurds to start talks on oil dispute
BAGHDAD - Reuters
The Iraqi government and the Kurdish regional authorities agreed to start talks to resolve a dispute on oil revenue-sharing that is holding back the nation's crude exports, according to a statement from the Iraqi prime minister's office.
The statement was published after a meeting in Baghdad between Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi and Nechirvan Barzani, prime minister of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG).
Iraq's oil ministry said on Aug. 26 it would consider selling crude through Iran should talks with the autonomous Kurds about oil exported by pipeline through their region from the northern Kirkuk fields to Turkey fail.
"The meeting dealt with issues related to oil production and distribution from the field of Kirkuk and the region" of Kurdistan, the statement said.
"It was agreed to start technical talks" between the oil ministries of the two sides.
Iraq, OPEC's second-largest producer after Saudi Arabia, depends on oil sales for 95 percent of its public income. Its economy is reeling under the double impact of low oil prices and the war against Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) militants.
The KRG region produces around 500,000 barrels per day (bpd) on its territory and exports those volumes via Turkey. Baghdad would not be able to re-route those volumes to Iran but could order shipments of some 150,000 bpd via Iran that are being produced in the nearby province of Kirkuk.
Iraq's state-run North Oil Company resumed pumping crude through the Kurdish-controlled pipeline to Turkey earlier this month as "a sign of goodwill" to invite the Kurds to start negotiations, Deputy Oil Minister Fayadh al-Nema said in an interview with Reuters on Aug. 26.
But the flow of crude extracted from Kirkuk by North Oil and pumped in the pipeline has been running at about 75,000 bpd since, or half the rate before it was halted in March, he said. It would only be increased if there is an agreement, he added.
The pipeline carries crude to the Mediterranean port of Ceyhan, where the Kurds have been selling it independently on the international market, along with oil produced in their northern region.
The KRG cabinet has been calling on Baghdad since March to resume the pumping of Kirkuk crude in full to help Arbil fund its war against ISIL.
Barzani assures infallible prov ready to resolve the outstanding issues with Baghdad
Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Regional Government , Nechirvan Barzani said the president Fuad Masum, readiness constantly holding meetings between Erbil and Baghdad to resolve the outstanding problems. "
He said the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan said Masum "received Tuesday, at the Peace Palace inBaghdad, Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Regional Government Nechirvan Barzani and his accompanying delegation," adding that "discuss the status of the region in general and the situation in Iraq and Kurdistan and the political situation by another meeting."
The President Republic during the meeting, was pleased to visit the Kurdish delegation to Baghdad and met with Iraqi officials in the federal government, especially since it has been discussed a number of important issues between Erbil and Baghdad.
for his part, President of the Kurdistan Regional government pointed to the readiness of the region to continue to hold meetings between Erbil and Baghdad, to reach a solution to all the problems.
a delegation of the Kurdistan Regional Government had reached Baghdad and held meetings, including with Prime Minister Haider al – Abadi series, the two sides agreed to hold technical talks between the Federal Ministry of oil and mineral wealth in the region on issues related to the production and distribution of oil through the region and the Kirkuk oilfields.
Political consensus to approve oil and gas law
8/31/2016 0:00
Following the common understandings between the province and the center.
morning the whole number of deputies on the existence of conviction among political blocs approve oil and gas law after he suffered from many political differences on the approval, stressing that the next few days will see the discussion of the law in the House of Representatives sessions.
Calls to acknowledge, came after the political understandings that resulted from a meeting of Prime Minister Haider al - Abadi, the provincial delegation, who visited Baghdad yesterday, and discussed a number of important files, including oil.
The government spokesman, Saad al - Hadithi, have said »Sabah» that the meeting Abadi officials Kurds, seen to reach agreement on «hold technical talks between the Federal Ministry of Oil and Mineral Resources in the province on the oil file».
Said the Oil and Energy Committee rapporteur Adil Khamis: The «approve oil and gas law formula that satisfies all the political parties, would be a positive sign towards the development and construction of state institutions in a practical». He stressed in a statement »Sabah» that « the law Corner for several years on the shelves of the House of Representatives because of political differences it, but now the House of Representatives are now looking at the total broken laws -omnha oil and Algaz- as the backbone of the work of the state, and approval will organize state institutions work» .Khamis explained that «there is no intention and political consensus on the approval of the law; it will be a cause for resolving the many crises and the outstanding problems between the political blocs, including between the central government and the province will contribute to a starting job investments that will help in the development of the oil sector.
And the MP that « the next few days will witness the launch law for debate in the House of Representatives, in the presence of conviction among the blocks on the importance ofthis law and the benefits that could accrue to Iraq, including political stability , pointing out that« the Kurdistan Alliance has sufficient conviction to approve the law , although some
observations ». package laws as confirmed by a member of the legal Committee parliament, MP for the coalition of Kurdish blocs Amin Bakr, the intention of parliament to approve a draft oil and gas law in the coming period. Bakr said in a press statement: «we have a package of laws , including the justice and accountability and financial laws exempting companies from taxes and oil and gas law» adding that «there determination to approval ». region and the provinces for his part, said the Commission on oil and energy parliamentary member Zaher al - Abadi: that« the federal government withdrew a draft oil and gas law , because they need a consensus between the provincial government and the provinces, and therefore there must be harmony and visions of substantive enactment of the law ».
He pointed out in a statement to morning that the House of Representatives is determined to legislation discreet bill that would preserve the rights of the province and the center and the provinces and therefore need time for legislation.
The MP added that the law will contribute to resolving many of the problems and help to achieve the ambition of the people especially in the installation of provincial rights and benefits would benefit the whole of Iraq», pointing out that «the law is passed in this time will be by political blocs , as legislative.
I quote from the article above – "pointing out that the law is passed in this time will be by political blocs , as legislative (meaning legislation and a legal law).
I am emphasizing one more time to everyone. The HCL is not yet done since they are telling us in the part I quoted from the above article - there become legislation and voted and passed in parliament to be effective. What does this statement mean?
I keep telling all these so called intel "gurus" who always want to jump the gun and keep telling everyone that a particular law is done, when in fact it had not even passed parliament. Don't they know how democracies work? Don't they know they must be passed in parliament to become law?
Just like months ago they kept telling us Amnesty was done too. Really? Now they come on their calls and apologize for their mistakes and make excuses for their ignorance and mistakes. Is this responsible reporting?
Not having a legal binding law in place has been the key blockage for effectively implementing HCL in the past. There was no legal, binding law. Get it? Now they realize this and are putting the final touches on the draft law and they will finally finish it and get it passed very soon.
These backroom deals and handshakes don't cut it. There must be a legal law in place.
I will not say it again – pay attention to the progress in HCL. Read my lips…PAY ATTENTION, PAY ATTENTION. This too in needed for any RV going forward. I have said this in the past and it has not changed. It is a mandated requirement to move forward with this country. They IMF and the USA will not sign-off on the RV until the wealth of the Iraq country is secure and being utilized as it should for the benefit of the citizens and not just for this bunch of pirates who have taken over Iraq since the USA pulled out in Dec 2011.
Other laws too are on the agenda and coming soon.
So there is a deadline. I know the target date and so we see the progress moving at a very rapid rate now. There are consequences too if Iraq can not get their full government established. It is not a pretty consequence and probably will result inoccupation of the and very possibly the establishment of an occupied government again. We have already see references of the USA and coalition forces go from "adviser" status, to being called "combat troops" to securing 5 large bases in northern Iraq.
Personally I do not believe Abadi or the other honest politicians will allow this to happen.

Skip to comments.Citizen MD [American Medical Association op-ed against Intelligent Design]
Posted on 12/03/2005 6:18:54 AM PST by Right Wing Professor
Im afraid we live in loopy times. How else to account for the latest entries in Americas culture wars: science museum docents donning combat gloves against rival fundamentalist tour groups and evolution on trial in a Pennsylvania federal court. For those keeping score, so far this year its Monkeys: 0, Monkey Business: 82. That's 82 evolution versus creationism debates in school boards or towns nationwidethis year alone. [1]
This past summer, when most Americans were distracted by thoughts of beaches and vacations or the high price of gasoline (even before the twin hits of Katrina and Rita), 2 heavy-weight political figures joined the President of the United States to weigh in on a supposedly scientific issue. US Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, Arizona Senator John McCain, and President George W. Bush each endorsed the teaching of intelligent design alongside evolution in the science classroom. Can anyone reasonably convince me that these pronouncements were not just cynical political punditry but, rather, were expressions of sincere beliefs?
So you have to ask yourself in light of all of these events, are we headed back to the past with no escape in the future? Are we trapped in a new period of history when science, once again, is in for the fight of its life?
In times like these, as inundated as we are by technical wizardry, one might conclude that American technological supremacy and know-how would lead, inevitably, to a deeper understanding or trust of science. Well, it doesnt. Perhaps just the opposite is true. Technology and gee whiz gadgetry has led to more suspicion rather than less. And a typical Americans understanding of science is limited at best. As far as evolution is concerned, if youre a believer in facts, scientific methods, and empirical data, the picture is even more depressing. A recent survey by the Pew Forum on Religion and Science found that 64 percent of respondents support teaching creationism side by side with evolution in the science curriculum of public schools. A near majority48 percentdo not believe that Darwins theory of evolution is proven by fossil discoveries. Thirty-three percent believe that a general agreement does not exist among scientists that humans evolved over time [2].
What if we become a nation that cant chew gum, walk down the street, and transplant embryonic stem cells all at the same time? Does it matter?
New York Times journalist Cornelia Dean, who balances her time between science reporting for the Times and lecturing at Harvard, told me that she believes that science stands in a perilous position. Science, as an institution, has largely ceded the microphone to people who do not necessarily always embrace the scientific method, she says. Unless scientists participate in the public life of our country, our discourse on a number of issues of great importance becomes debased [3].
Others, such as journalist Chris Mooney, point to the increasing politicization of science as a pollutant seeping into our nations psyche. In his recent book, The Republican War on Science, Mooney spells out the danger of ignorance in public life when ideology trumps science.
Science politicization threatens not just our public health and the environment but the very integrity of American democracy, which relies heavily on scientific and technical expertise to function. At a time when more political choices than ever before hinge upon the scientific and technical competence of our elected leaders, the disregard for consensus and expertiseand the substitution of ideological allegiance for careful assessmentcan have disastrous consequences [4].
Jon D. Miller, PhD, a political scientist on faculty at Northwestern Universitys School of Medicine, believes that the sophisticated questions of biology that will confront each and every American in the 21st Century will require that they know the difference between a cell and a cell phone and are able to differentiate DNA from MTV. For decades, Miller has been surveying Americans about their scientific knowledge. We are now entering a period where our ability to unravel previously understood or not understood questions is going to grow extraordinarily, says Miller. As long as you are looking at the physics of nuclear power plants or the physics of transistors [all 20th Century questions] it doesnt affect your short-term belief systems. You can still turn on a radio and say it sounds good but you dont have to know why it works. As we get into genetic medicine, infectious diseases if you dont understand immunity, genetics, the principles of DNA, youre going to have a hard time making sense of these things [5].
These ideological battles arent likely to vanish any time soon. If anything, an organized and emboldened fundamentalist religious movement buttressed by political power in Washington will continue to challenge accepted scientific theory that collides with religious beliefs. So one must ask, is it too farfetched to see these ideological battles spilling over into areas of medical research and even into funding at the National Institutes of Health?
Now I am not asking for a world that doesnt respect religious belief. My education as a Roman Catholic balanced creed and science. In the classroom of my youth, one nun taught creationism in religion class while another taught evolution in science, and never the twain did meet.
So what does one do? How can a medical student, a resident, or a physician just beginning to build a career become active in these larger public battles? Burt Humburg, MD, a resident in internal medicine at Penn States Hershey Medical Center, is one role model. Hes been manning the evolutionary ramparts since his medical school days in Kansas in the late 1990s when he became active in Kansas Citizens for Science. On a brief vacation from his residency volunteering as a citizen advocate for the federal trial in Pennsylvania, he said education is the key role for the physician. While he realizes that medical students, residents and physicians might not view themselves as scientists, per se, he sees himself and his colleagues as part of the larger scientific collective that cant afford to shirk its duty. The town scientist is the town doctor, so whether we want it or not, we have the mantlethe trappingsof a scientist [7].
It is time for the medical community, through the initiative of individual physicians, to address not only how one can heal thy patient, but also how one can heal thy nation. There are many ways to get involved; from the most rudimentaryattending school board meetings, sending letters to the editor, and volunteering at the local science museumto the more demandingrunning for office, encouraging a spouse or partner to do so, or supporting candidates (especially financially) who are willing to speak out for science. As Tip ONeill, the larger-than-life Speaker of the House of Representatives, famously declared, All politics is local. Speak out for science. Isnt that a message that should be advanced in every physicians office?
Northwesterns Jon Miller concedes that speaking out may come with a price, It wont make [physicians]...popular with many people but is important for any profession, particularly a profession based on science to do so [5]. Consider this: shouldnt civic leadership be embedded in the mind of every blooming physician? In the end, doesnt combating this virulent campaign of anti-knowledge lead us back to that old adage of evolutionary leadership by example, Monkey see, monkey do? Seize the day, Doc.
Damn! Same old players; same old trolls.
What would the IDers do with a grant? Could you please list some research that they propose that's on hold for lack of money? Why can't DI or ICR or Rev. Moon or the Wahhabis or suchlike fund research until the "theory" is developed enough to convince biologists?
What's its POV? Tell me more...
Okay, you write the research proposal...
No, that's Fleeing Cur and he doesn't appear to be here right now.
"I know it when I see it" works for the Supreme Court ... under certain circumstances.
There are 2 Sci Fi types.
1. Science Based Fiction - say Sagan's "Contact" which I think he borrowed from Gunn's "The Listeners". There is a very limited place for this stuff in science class. Gives students a real example of how some of the theoretical stuff might be applied. Jules Verne was certainly a far sighted kind of guy in this area.
2. Science Fantasy - belongs in a Fiction class and nowhere else.
"2001" has some of both so could be discussed.
Please elaborate.
I only caught the first 5 minutes of it when I taped something else but it seemed to be just asking physicists, philosophers and laymen, just "what do we know" and letting them talk for a minute. It may have led in to something else but I can't seem to find a reference to it now.
More than that. The SF community has two great categories: SF and fantasy (sword and sorcery). Within the SF category there's "hard science fiction," which extrapolates from genuine science, and there's a load of other stuff, some of the subcategories: sociological, dystopias, "space opera" (like Star Wars), etc.
Another way IDer and Creationists are liberals: They're pushing an affirmative action program. I don't see much difference between teaching ID and teaching Afrocentric history or Ebonics.
Not in any science class I teach.
We could invent our own if you like. Trolls that is.
Thanks for looking. Please let me know if you come across more.
Finally, somebody who knows the difference.
It drives me crazy when people include drivel like Star Wars in with Science Fiction.
My dictionary doesn't attach a sex to cur. I suppose you could use curette and cure' to distinguish them.
I thought Star Wars was great fun and the cantina at Mos Eisley was right out of Astounding Science Fiction ('50s versioof Analog).
I suspect nothing will cure the cur's currishness like a currette applied to the cur's colonic cavity. I'm glad I'm not a religious man, I'd hate to be the cure applying the cure.
I stand by my opinion. :^P

A few weekends ago, a couple came into the shop and before they left, they presented us with a package of their books.
I really like them! They remind me of the early Yoko Ono's instruction works (concept), the music of Lullatone (execution) and a nice sunny day in winter (result). If you're running a little low on curiosity and/or if you find yourself stuck in a rut, these should reset your gears.
Thank you HOKO studio for the lovely books.
If you're interested to see more of their works, HOKO studio has a booth at the Singapore Art Fair happening this week.
The Singapore Art Book Fair is an annual book fair specialising in art books and zines. Organised by BooksActually and HJGHER, the event takes place at The U Factory pop-up space at Gillman Barracks.

The Conservative and Lib Dem coalition government announced its first Budget yesterday - so are families winners or losers?
Well, all families will be affected by child benefit being frozen for three years - it won't even go up with inflation so will mean less in real terms.
Families earning more than £40,000 a year will also lose out, with child tax credits being limited to those families earning less than this.
Everybody will be affected by the increase in VAT, with estimates that this will mean we pay out £500 more a year, and anyone who works in the public sector and earns over £21,000 will get a two-year pay freeze.
However, the Independent reports that a couple earning £25,000 or less with two children are the biggest winners - they will be £17 a month better off due to the changes in this tax year.
Single people earning £20,000 or less with one child will also be better off by £12 a month, according to the Independent's figures.
And there's good news for couples earning a total of around £25,000 with two children, who will be better off by £76 a month.
Very high earners - those bringing in £125,000 or more - will be worst off during this tax year.
In the next tax year there are likely to be 700,000 people who will pay 40% tax for the first time, as the threshold is due to drop by around £2,500. So if you earn over £41,000 you could move into this band.
Middle income families where both earn will start to lose out if their joint income is over £50,000 - they'll be £18 a month worse off from next April, according to the Independent.
But bizarrely, if they earn £60,000 they will be £19 a month better off.
Confused? You won't be the only one...

For Automated Testing, Better Alternatives to DOS Batch Files?
An anonymous reader writes "I am working on a project that would allow our customers to test our sending different PCL commands to LAN printers. My initial thought was that a DOS batch file will allow users to select some simple options, send the tests to printers, and even generate a small web page which, when launched from the batch file, will provide email feedback on the tool. This all worked. To spice it up I added some ANSI color commands to the menus, though the implementation of that may prove tricky without resorting to .COM files or forcing the load of the ansi.sys via the command.com shortcut. And this implementation goes against my initial idea that I want the entire thing to be contained in a standalone batch file. My questions are: Is there a better option for this? Are DOS Batch files too 1990s to be taken seriously in 2010? The application needs to (1) be simple (2) be easy to update (3) be able to send PCL commands to LAN-attached printers and (4) allow email feedback. I don't know what other programming language would allow this and be as simple. I tend to think that I have found the best tool for the job but if you have another idea let me know. Call me crazy but I love DOS."

Apple is suddenly keen to lose its label as the Britney "don't cha know that it is toxic" Spears computing by removing two chemicals from its production line which give Chinese workers cancer and nerve damage.
Benzene and n-hexane have been a super cool feature in the final assembly of Apple's iPhones, iPads, iPods, and Mac computers. While the chemicals do not do fanboys any harm, they have nasty habit of killing the Chinese kids who make the shiny toys for rich westerners who have more money than sense.
The tech giant announced Wednesday that it is banning the use of benzene and n-hexane in the final assembly of all of its devices, according to The Associated Press. This is a change of heart from Jobs' Mob. The outfit conducted a four-month investigation at 22 factories and concluded that they did not endanger any of the 500,000 workers at these plants. In fact, the chemicals were only found at four of the factories and Apple determined they with within normal safety levels.
However, five months ago activist groups China Labour Watch and Green America petitioned Apple to stop using the two chemicals. They cited benzene as being classified by the US Environmental Protection Agency as a risky carcinogen that can cause leukaemia and other blood disorders, and n-hexane as having been associated with nerve damage.
It seems that Apple has listened. It will still permit the substances in the early production phases of its devices, it's lowering the maximum amount allowed.
"This is doing everything we can think of to do to crack down on chemical exposures and to be responsive to concerns," Apple's vice president of environmental initiatives Lisa Jackson told The Associated Press. "We think it's really important that we show some leadership and really look toward the future by trying to use greener chemistries."

Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin, is back to solve another baffling historical mystery in Why Kings Confess by C. S. Harris. The French Revolution is over, and Napoleon seems poised to usurp the French throne from the Bourbons. A secret delegation of royalists has been dispatched to England to try and make peace with the British monarchy. French physician Damion Pelletan is discovered in a back alley, his body mutilated and his companion, Alexi Sauvage, badly injured. Sauvage, a woman trained as a physician but unable to practice in England or France due solely to her gender. Sebastian knows Alexi from an unfortunate encounter in the past, but quickly realizes that he must leave the past behind, investigate the murder and find her attacker. Soon he will become embroiled in a hotbed of political intrigue and conspiracy as he encounters the tale of the "Lost Dauphin." Is it true that there is a surviving male heir to the throne of France, spirited away under the cover of darkness years before? With concerns for his wife Hero and their unborn child, Sebastian plunges forward, using his preternatural gifts of sight and hearing to try and piece together this rather difficult and dangerous puzzle.
C. S. Harris is the pen name for Candice Proctor, who earned both an MA and PhD in history. This is apparent in Why Kings Confess, the ninth title in the Sebastian St. Cyr series. Regency England plays an important role in the novel, and there is rich historical detail that will enlighten and educate the reader as well as keep them entertained. The mystery itself is complex, with several suspects and plot twists that will delight anyone interested in a traditional whodunit. The audio edition, narrated by Davina Porter, is particularly well done, as her narration brings the text to life. The series, beginning with the novel What Angels Fear, is also available for download as an e-book.

The condition you have called Achilles' tendinopathy is characterized by a painful thickness in the mid-portion of the Achilles' tendon. If this problem has been present for more than three months, then it is considered a chronic problem.
Ultrasound studies show that thickening of the tendon and irregularities in the tendon are seen with a tendinopathy. The most commonly prescribed treatment is with eccentric exercise. The muscle is put in a shortened position and then lengthened.
The reason these exercises work still isn't entirely clear. It's possible the action of the muscle helps break adhesions. Adhesions are places where tiny bits of the tendon fibers have gotten stuck together. If the fibers don't glide smoothly during motion, they get bunched up and form a lump. Exercise may also help improve blood flow to the area, which helps restore normal cell structure and function.
In the case of the Achilles' tendon, the patient starts in a position raised up on toes. Then the foot is lowered to a position with the heel below the toes. This can be done best while standing on a stair facing the stair case as if walking up the stairs. The toes and ball of the foot are on the stair, the heel is not supported by the surface.
Although this exercise is recommended for Achilles' tendinopathy, the best progression of exercise is unknown. Some experts advise doing the exercises everyday for 12 weeks. The exercises should be done while wearing a stable, supportive shoe.
The exercises are carried out with the knee straight. Then the same set of exercises are repeated with the knee slightly bent. Later, weight can be added by wearing a back pack with increasing weights added inside.

Bosco Wong discloses he has '5 wives'
Artiste Bosco Wong (黃宗澤) and Michelle Wai (衛詩雅) attended the opening ceremony of transformers on 16 November. Bosco is known as a car lover and disclosed he bought a new car lately: "It is a US vintage car and should worth at least $500,000 but excluding the importing fee and car registration plate."
Bosco admitted he cherished his cars: "I treat it as my wives and this car is 'number 5'. I have 5 cars which is under my mother's name. (Does your mother urge you to get married soon instead of buying cars?) Huh? I have many wives and this is 'number 5'. I cherish my cars very much." Bosco disclosed his female friend wore high heels to drive his car before and he felt heart pain when there was a scratch upon alighting from the car.
