Last June, Mitt Romney conducted a conference call with a group of small business owners, in the course of which he urged his listeners to talk to their employees about how political decisions can affect their companies:
I hope you make it very clear to your employees what you believe is in the best interest of your enterprise and therefore their job and their future in the upcoming elections. And whether you agree with me or you agree with President Obama, or whatever your political view, I hope, I hope you pass those along to your employees.
That seems like sensible advice, based on the presumption that most employees identify their interests with those of their employer–if my employer grows and prospers, so, in all likelihood, will I; whereas, if my employer is driven out of business it will be bad for me. But not everyone takes such a common-sense view. Thus, a few days ago a publication called In These Times–somewhat ironically, a part of the George Soros empire–attacked Romney for the comments quoted above:
In a June 6, 2012 conference call posted on the anti-union National Federation of Independent Business's website, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney instructed employers to tell their employees how to vote in the upcoming election.
But of course, employers can't "tell their employees how to vote." Employees can vote however they want; we have a secret ballot in all state and federal elections. (The only people who are trying to abolish the secret ballot are labor unions, via card check legislation which will allow unions to threaten and intimidate employees to vote for union representation when they do not want to do so.) Employers can only explain how certain policies would help or hurt their economic prospects.
The writer of the In These Times piece went on to make a point that is, actually, correct:
In the June call, Romney went on to reassure his audience that it is perfectly legal for them to talk to their employees about how to vote:
Nothing illegal about you talking to your employees about what you believe is best for the business, because I think that will figure into their election decision, their voting decision and of course doing that with your family and your kids as well.
He's correct that such speech is now legal for the first time ever, thanks to the Citizen United ruling, which overturned previous Federal Election Commission laws that prohibited employers from political campaigning among employees.
Prior to Citizens United, companies could communicate with salaried employees about politics, but not hourly employees. While the Citizens United decision says not a word on the topic, it is generally believed that the First Amendment principles enunciated in that case imply that companies can communicate with their hourly employees as they can with members of the general public. So, since 2010, more companies have tried to explain to employees how various political outcomes could impact their businesses, and their employees' jobs.
Citizens United leveled the playing field, to some degree, between management and labor. Labor unions have always been able to tell their members how to vote. They produce sample ballots, demand that members march in parades or go door to door on behalf of Democratic candidates, and so on. Not only that, unions are able to extract money from their members against their will and use that money to support candidates with whom many of their members do not agree. This is a scandal, but it has been an important feature of American politics for generations. In fact, when one talks about special interest money, unions predominate to the point where it is hardly worth while to mention anyone else. Being able to extract money by force does wonders for the coffers.
What accounted for the extraordinary imbalance between labor and management that existed prior to Citizens United? There is only one explanation: federal law presumed a more or less Marxist view of the world, in which the interests of hourly workers and managers are inevitably opposed, whereas the interests of all pipe fitters, auto workers, or whatever, are always aligned, whether the workers in question think so or not. But that world view is silly. Ford's auto workers are in competition with auto workers who work for Toyota. They have a far stronger mutual interest with Ford's management in the success of Ford Motor Company than they have with auto workers employed by competing companies.
This is why Romney's advice to small business owners made sense. Employees should want to know, and most undoubtedly do want to know, how the positions taken by various political candidates would impact their jobs. Employers can help them to understand this, so their input can be highly valuable. Liberals fear such communication, not because employers will "tell their employees how to vote"–they can't do that–but rather because, if workers fully appreciate how devastating liberal policies are to the economy, they will vote for conservatives, and thereby help themselves and their families to prosper.
Any time a political faction wants to suppress free speech, we should be suspicious of its motives. That maxim applies here: if employees don't find their employers' input persuasive, they are entirely free to reject it, just as they can tune out a political ad on television. Liberals fear free speech by employers because they know that in many instances, employees will want to hear it, and will find it persuasive because it is true.
More to come on this topic tomorrow.

John Reimer is the creator of Baseball Buddha, and he plans to attend Ole Miss-Georgia game on Saturday as part of his cross-country baseball road trip.
Baseball Buddha is a journey, a self-funded documentary of the spectator experience behind the love of baseball. He travels by car and attends a different baseball game every day. The Ole Miss-Georgia game will be game 92 and day 100 on the road.
This journey, Reimer said, is his path to happiness, to enlightenment through baseball and the love of baseball, which started on February 14, the opening day for college baseball.
"I had become unhappy at my work, and my dad had triple bypass surgery last August," Reimer said. "I spent the first two or three nights with him, and the very first night, he was contemplating his life. We started talked about, 'What would you do if you could do anything?' I knew instantly what I would want to do. I wanted to ravel the country and see the country and go to a baseball game every day and then blog about the experience.
"I wanted to be happy. I wanted to start doing things that I wanted to do. I wanted to start living life with me dictating the terms. Everybody talks about doing things. There's a lot of talk, but then you have to act."
Through the use of social media, it is his goal to document the fan experience every day until the final pitch is thrown and the last out is played. It's not just the game itself, he said, but it's the fan experience with the game and searching and reporting the best stories of the common baseball fan. It's what certain parts of the country are like and finding out for himself.
For Reimer, this is part of his second trip through the South, having visited Southern Miss and Alabama his first time through but he decided to come back through because of the fans and energy. That's what brings him to Ole Miss on Saturday. He will book end his visit to Swayze Field with a game at Mississippi State on Friday and the Memphis Redbirds on Sunday.
"I heard awesome things about and wanted to hit Mississippi State and Ole Miss," Reimer said. "When I was driving through Alabama on my first trip, I listened to an Ole Miss game because it was the only game on the radio and I could feel the energy from the broadcast. The fans are rabid down there. The energy is awesome."

|Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
Apr 7, 2010
I am going through the acute phase of infection right now and over the past couple weeks have had to take a few days off of work. I had the sick time to cover those days, but I am now out of sick time. Would it be wise to file an intermittent FMLA claim? I would be interested in your expertise and opinions regarding FMLA and HIV. Thanks!
Response from Ms. Breuer
This is the kind of situation that led us to the happy existence of FMLA. By all means, take advantage of it. Remember, you don't have to disclose your diagnosis. If pushed, you can say that you're under treatment by a qualified physician and you expect to return to work very soon.

Bold Kimberley inspired shapes, natural ochres, and vivid colours combine to make Maria Malay's artwork sing.
- Print page

- Permalink
Maria Malay collects ochre from dry creek beds around Bedford Downs, in the east Kimberley, for her paintings.
It's her maternal Grandmother's land and spiritually the ochre is an egg from the Rainbow Serpent. Her grandmother Junal was an important figure in the East Kimberley community and considered the keeper of many Kija traditions and the "mother" of the country covering Bedford Downs.
Maria is also of Afghan descent; her grandfather is Mahomet Malay, an Afghan camel driver and trader who worked on the Kimberley's early frontier, and her father is Sally Malay (the son of Junal) who was a well known stockman in the 1940s, '50s and '60s and died in 1999.
Several years ago, Maria successfully got a nickel company to stop using her father's name for their mine site, which operates near where he was born.
Now the 40 year old Wyndham born woman is channelling her passion for the land into art, blending ochre and acrylic into striking patterns. The Rainbow Serpent and its jewel like ochre-eggs often feature, as does the three hills, a symbol of Bedford Downs.
She is also keen to explore Afghan themes in her future artworks.
The award winning Kimberley artist Mark Norval is mentoring Maria Malay on her painting. Watching Maria paint in his Derby gallery, Mark explains that her vivid use of acrylic colour, combined with earthy hand-ground ochres, is unique on the Kimberley art scene.
Mark says she's only been painting for five years but already has a great grasp of design and pattern, which combined with her passion for telling her country's stories, will help make her a collectable artist.

Whenever I hear Chris Burden's name, my ears prick up.
He's an artist who, to my mind at least, never fails to be interesting through his engaging ideas and fresh angles on life.
Nearly seven years ago, Locus+ asked me to make high resolution scans of two sketches made by Chris, detailing their thoughts and intentions for the fantastic collaboration, Ghost Ship.
If you have a moment, it's well worth taking a look at this project. As Locus+ describe:
"Commissioned to coincide with the Tall Ships Race, 2005, Ghost Ship involved the construction and development of a crewless, self-navigating sailing boat, which undertook its maiden voyage between Fair Isle, Scotland and Newcastle upon Tyne. Audiences were able to track the boat's progress via a live, daily updated website."
With the kind permission of Locus+, I've unearthed the sketches from my hard drives for you to see here:
So, back to Metropolis II…
On hearing of Burden's latest piece, I was once again all ears and for good reason. Currently installed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, his sculpture ticks so many boxes for me on so many levels!
As the Huffington Post write:
"It's a classic piece of German expressionist cinema reimagined as a complex piece of installation art — or the best ski-electrics set ever, depending on your perspective.
"Artist Chris Burden has built a model city based on Fritz Lang's classic 1927 film Metropolis that features over 1000 toys cars soaring through its metallic skyscrapers at speeds of up to 230mph. Rarely has a moody dystopia and a critique of capitalism been such fun."
Here is the piece for your delectation, all captured beautifully via the medium of the moving image…

Shelby, Nc — The Cleveland County Family YMCA in North Carolina has started a wellness pilot program for designated North Carolina state employees, according to The Shelby (NC) Star. The program is in partnership with the State Health Plan of North Carolina, which provides health care coverage to more than 644,000 teachers, state employees, retirees, current and former lawmakers, state university and community college personnel, state hospital staff, and the dependents of each of these groups.
The pilot program began this month and is scheduled to run until June. One hundred selected state employees will participate in the six-month plan that encourages positive exercise and behavioral habits. Y wellness coaches work closely with program participants to ensure safety and maximum effectiveness.
If the pilot is successful, it may expand, Dover YMCA Associate Executive Director Jack Clevesy told the paper.
"This is the first in a series of parts," Clevesy says. "We start in Cleveland and hopefully others will pick it up, too."
Employers hope the pilot will eventually reduce insurance costs because of decreased health risks, according to the newspaper.

Good news! The Tigers are in peak form right now. They have recently won their very first Test, Test series and ODI series. We have never had the fortune to see so many in-form Tigers roaming around. Mashrafee is back, and he is back with a bang! With his new found strength with the bat and wilyness with ball, he is in rare form.
Target: England

Good news! The Tigers are in peak form right now. They have recently won their very first Test, Test series and ODI series. We have never had the fortune to see so many in-form Tigers roaming around. Mashrafee is back, and he is back with a bang! With his new found strength with the bat and wilyness with ball, he is in rare form.
Old veteran Rafique is still there to confuse anybody around. Of course there too is Bashar, hook and pull are two of his middle names. Don't forget Rajin, had not he already shown you that ODI is not any unknown jungle to him? Our little wonder Ashraful is there as well, waiting to show how real Tigers look like. And yes, there is Rana too, who with all his limitations, will not leave a penny behind without fighting. Not to mention the new comers, who are waiting for any opportunity to prove themselves. On top of all these, there is not any big injury problem holding them back. No wonder their spirits are sky high. Who can stop them? Well, there is some bad news as well.
Bad news, Tigers are about to face the biggest challenge of their history. Even though they have been to England before and played a few ODI matches, they never played any test there. Besides, the condition of early summer in England is something we do not crave for. Not to mention that England is the second ranked test team in the world right now. Then there will be this Natwest Trophy where Bangladesh is set to face Australia and England. Everything together, if the picture of a blucher's house comes to your mind and you feel like a lamb, no one will blame you.
So, where do we stand? We are facing a huge challenge, but we do have our best team available in best condition. Do we have anything to be optimistic like some fans here, or we need to be pessimistic like others? Instead, let us have a look at what we can realistically expect and what we should aim for.
Talking about test series, we are not in a condition to hope for a result. An optimistic mind would say, if we never try, we will never succeed. Honestly speaking, we do not have that luxury to try it out this time. Our goal in test should be, first make them bat second innings and second, extend the game to the fifth day. We need to focus session by session on the game and move to the next target once first one is achieved. In this game plan, if everything works out nicely, we can finally move the third target. I have not stated it yet, but probably you have imagined it already since there is not a huge difference between playing in the fifth day and drawing the test, especially when things go in your way. We should not let our imagination fly beyond that. Yes, we are going to beat England in test, just that not in this tour. We have to wait for the upcoming opportunities.
What should we target for the ODI tournament? As of today, it is a fact that no one can beat Australia. If we try, we might end up making some kind of record that we do not want to hear about. Therefore, it is better to play safe against them and make the lose look as good as possible. What about our other opponent, England, who is a huge power in test cricket? Fortunately for us, they are not as good in ODI as in test. Even though their ODI ranking of eighth does not say it all, but it does not conceal a lot either. We will not risk too much by going all out against them. Keep in mind that the ODI series will be after the tests and we will have a better idea about the pitches by that time. Moreover, the pitches will dry up a bit and will be friendlier for our batsman. We should play the ODI matches against England to win, does not matter what the outcome is. It is very likely that we will lose to them, but we need to make sure we give them a run for their money. This is a place where an ill-performance cannot be tolerated.
Beside these main result oriented goals, we still have some side business to attend there as well. Finding a permanent answer for the opening pair is a leading one among them. In ODI Rajin-Nafis pair has shown some promise recently, and it will not be wise to break it until it has been thoroughly tested. In test, however, we have some problem. Javed Omar has not shown much promise lately and he is not getting any younger. Someone has to take over for him very soon, and Shahrier Nafis is a good candidate for it. He should be tested in all the practice matches, and if clicked, should get a test cap. Finding a partner for Nafis Iqbal is one of the biggest tasks in this series.
What is the biggest problem of our batsman? There should not be any doubt about the answer - inability to play swing. Time and time again we have observed top order collapse due to swinging ball. Since ball does not swing much in subcontinent, it is hard to get much practice to improve in this area. Well, we have this chance now. Our batsman should practice playing swing. Not only during the actual matches, but also in the net, they should spend most of their time practicing on it. It is not possible for countries like us to send players aboard on regular basis to improve on things like these. We need to make good use of the opportunities that come in our way.
We should also use this tour to get an answer on what should be our strategy of bowling attack. One side argues that since spin is our strength, we should fill up our arsenal with spinners. The other side says that no, our attack plan should be dependant on pitch regardless of our strength or weakness. Well, this is going to be a big test for pro-pitch people. England condition at this time is the best suit for pacers and if our pacers fail to prove themselves there, there should not be any confusion on how we should arrange our bowling attack. A big problem is that there is nothing for the pro-spin people to be happy about if the pacers fail. No team can be very successful without a good pace attack, and if the pacers fail, that would simply mean that the spinners has to make it up for the team until quality pacers come up.
There are a few more things that we need to keep an eye on, and reducing or eliminating top order collapse is the most important of them. Learning to adopt new conditions, gaining mental strength to face strong opponent, getting rid of inferiority complex, coming up with a more consistent team combination and things like these also should be in the agenda.

Chalet Violetta Reviews
Best holiday i have ever experienced! Great ski in ski out feature and the accomodations was great!!! Only let down was the sofas=[. This is hardly a big deal though.
Apres Ski: 5/5

Well positioned chalet, you can put your skis on at the door and ski in and out — with a very small amount of pushing to get you back home. Food was excellent, very good quality, wide variety and plenty of it. Canapes always disappeared quickly! Rooms were clean and with good ensuites. Living area comfy but not massive. Heated boot room and sauna are a definite bonus (though a hot tub as well would have been nice). Resort has a huge range of slopes — it's a bit of a slog to get over to the Morzine slopes and back, but there's plenty to keep you occupied over towards the Swiss side.
Apres Ski: 4/5

Miranda Lambert, Keith Urban + More to Guest Star on John Fogerty Album
From Lionel Richie's recent 'Tuskegee' album to Taylor Swift's onstage appearances with artists like T.I. and rapper B.o.B., we've seen quite a few cross-genre collaborations involving country artists of late. Oh, and don't forget about Jason Aldean's duet with Kelly Clarkson that just took home two ACM Awards last weekend. And now, Creedence Clearwater Revival rocker John Fogerty just announced that he's going to release a new record featuring a handful of country artists, as well as others.
Fogerty's 'A Song for Everyone,' set to release this fall, will feature new songs as well as some of the singer's most beloved hits. For the collaborative project, the classic rocker will be inviting along the likes of Miranda Lambert, Keith Urban, Alan Jackson and Brad Paisley, as well as more rock and indie artists like Foo Fighters, Bob Seger, My Morning Jacket and Dawes.
While it isn't yet known what songs the country stars will make their guest appearances on, or even what tracks will be included on the project, Foo Fighters are expected to lend their style to 'Fortunate Son' and Bob Seger will guest star on 'Who'll Stop the Rain.' With more artists still to be announced for the record, the Vanguard Records release is set to be quite the vocal collusion of talent.
In addition to looking forward to this vocal event, Lambert is also able to revel in her new coronation as Female Vocalist of the Year alongside husband Blake Shelton, who was proclaimed the Male Vocalist of the Year at this past weekend's 2012 ACM Awards. Lambert also took home the coveted Album of the Year trophy for her platinum album 'Four the Record.'

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — This is why the Orioles traded for right-hander Scott Feldman.
After his eight-inning, two-run effort in Monday's 9-2 win over the Royals, Feldman has turned in three quality starts in his four Orioles outings. Take away his second start, in which he was charged with seven runs against the Rangers on July 8, and Feldman has a 2.95 ERA.
The Orioles struck quickly to acquire Feldman from the Cubs on July 2 in a trade that sent Jake Arrieta and Pedro Strop to Chicago. And by acquiring him – along with the return of Wei-Yin Chen from the DL – the Orioles finally have a stable five-man rotation. The Orioles have eight quality starts in the past nine games.
"They understand the challenge," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. "It's not just them ... there's a lot phases to this game, but that's something we knew we had to get better at. And so far, in a short sampling we have."
At the same time, Feldman is winning over his Orioles teammates.
"We've played great defense in the first half and we swung the bats well but out pitching was here and there, but I think the trade bringing Feldy over here, a guy who is going to throw strikes and he's going to pitch to contact and be around the zone, I think that's huge," said first baseman Chris Davis, who played with Feldman in Texas. "I think our starters are starting to hit their strides and everything else is falling into place."
On Monday, Feldman ended his outing by retiring 10 straight batters while mixing his pitches well and pitching to contact (10 groundball outs, 9 flyball outs). He was able to get some key ground-ball outs when he needed them. With one run in and two on in the third, Feldman induced an inning-ending double play from Eric Hosmer. With runners on the corners and two outs in the fourth, Feldman got Miguel Tejada on a groundout to shortstop.
"It's fun, I like playing behind him," shortstop J.J. Hardy said. "I think we all do. He mixes up his pitches, he's throwing strikes and he's keeping the ball down. So we're on our toes out there on the field, we like playing behind him."
Feldman said having an strong offense behind him – the Orioles ran out to a 4-1 lead after three innings and led 9-2 after six – has helped him adjust.
"It's been great. I knew what kind of offense they had because I've faced them in the past, but now that I'm a part of the team it's awesome," Feldman said. "I'm glad to be a part of it, I'm glad they traded for me and I'm glad to watch them on a nightly basis."

What recognizes the presequence on amino acids destined to the mitochondria and how does it send the chain to the mitochondria?
If you're wondering if there's a mitochondrial equivalent to a signal recognition particle, I don't think there is. The presequence interacts directly with the proteins at the outer mitochondrial membrane, but frankly a protein isn't going to have to go very far before it encounters a mitochondrion.

Living with the New iPad
The third-generation iPad has been out for more than two weeks, and by now, a lot has been written about the device. I initially discussed my first impressions and then detailed the facts last week, but now would like to focus on my experiences using the device since it first came out.
The biggest change in the new iPad is the new Retina display, which, at 2048-by-1536, is four times the resolution of the previous generations. Over the past couple of weeks, all sorts of applications have been updated to take advantage of the new display. Indeed, I find reading on the new display to be a better experience, as I really can't see the pixels that make up the text. This gives it more of a paper-like experience, although there is still a backlit screen.
In applications, such as the Safari browser, The New York Times, and the Amazon Kindle app, the new screen really has made a difference to me. Text—and in many cases, graphics—really looks better. In other applications, such as Netflix, the thumbnails of the videos look better, but the actual video looks the same.
The one application I had previously thought looked worse on the new screen, The Wall Street Journal, finally updated this weekend and now, for the most part, looks quite good. (There's still one navigation line on the front page that has a font that shows dithering, but the text is great now.)
I had earlier noted that the new iPad screen was dimmer and had a different color temperature than the earlier iPad. In day-to-day use, I can't say I've really noticed this. The brightness hasn't been an issue (and you can manually address this in any case), and the stories I've seen indicate the color on the new screen is more accurate.
As far as the faster processor goes, recall that all the improvement is in the graphics—moving to quad-core graphics—and all of that seems to go into handling the higher-resolution screen. I've tried a couple of wonderful photo editing apps, like iPhoto and Snapseed, side-by-side and the difference is hard to tell. In fact, in iPhoto, some of the effects seem to apply faster on the iPad 2 (perhaps because there are fewer pixels to change). In practice, however, both are fine for such things, if notably slower than a current laptop would be. A bigger difference is that the photos look better on a higher-resolution screen.
4G LTE is also clearly an improvement in the areas where you can get it (although it's hard to tell where just looking at the screen), now that the previous HSPA+ networks on AT&T, which used to be called 3G, are now called 4G as well. There have been times when I've noticed much faster downloads and times when it seems like the wait is forever. When LTE service is actually available, though, it does seem like a notable improvement. I still use Wi-Fi the bulk of the time, however.
I've heard some complaints that the new unit is slightly heavier and thicker, but as I've said, I really haven't noticed the weight in commuting with the new iPad. Unless the two units are side-by-side, you also can't tell that one is thicker. Again, it may be slightly warmer, but I can't say I noticed that in real-world use either. It clearly takes longer to charge, though I've been used to charging it overnight a couple times a week and that still works for me.
The other new features really haven't made much of a difference for me. The rear-facing camera is certainly improved, but I'm still not quite sure when I'd use it; a smartphone camera is much more convenient. The dictation support is interesting, but in practice, it wasn't as accurate as I would like.
Overall, what makes the new iPad a great tablet is also what made the previous iPads so successful: the great ecosystem of applications, including third-party applications and Apple's own. But of course, these are all available on the previous iPads as well.
So, there's no doubt that the new iPad is the leading tablet and the one I'd recommend for almost anyone who can afford it. (The Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet are good inexpensive alternatives.) If you already have an existing iPad, the biggest difference you'll note is the new screen. While that's great, I'm not sure it makes for a necessary upgrade.

'I'm Still Here' (2010)
The wince-worthy Joaquin Phoenix meltdown "I'm Still Here" is either all bull, no bull or partly bull. It could be a largely fabricated home movie, based on real events, or it could be more or less as "real" as it fakes out to be. On the other hand: Phoenix's father, who appears briefly on screen in the film, is played by someone with the last name of Affleck, possibly (probably?) the father of the director, co-writer and co-producer, Casey Affleck. Like Phoenix, Affleck — who is Phoenix's brother-in-law — can be a scarifyingly exposed performer on screen. "I'm Still Here" is going for maximum bad-behavior exposure, all of the time, fake or real or both. It's a celebrity-implosion horror movie, enough to make even the worst person in Hollywood, whoever that may be at this instant, think to himself: "At least I don't mistreat my personal assistant so heinously that he exacts revenge by defecating on me while I sleep, and while the camera's running." (Truth or fiction? No in-between on this bit!) Or, "at least I don't go on 'Letterman' and flame out the way Phoenix did in early 2009." Rarely has the question of a documentary's artifice mattered less. I genuinely hated this picture, almost as much as I've admired Phoenix's work in everything from "Gladiator" to "Walk the Line" and even the hackneyed but affecting "Two Lovers," after which Phoenix decided to retire from acting and devote himself, in between screwing around and being a self-immolating lout (if the movie's "true"), to a wing-and-a-delusional-prayer career as a rapper.

2015 Rugby World Cup
Organisers defend 2015 stadium choice

The 2015 Rugby World Cup will still be a vibrant festival of rugby despite the decision to axe Welford Road as a venue, the tournament's chief operating officer Ross Young has vowed.
England Rugby 2015 have come under fire for scrapping plans to stage matches at Leicester's historic ground, the biggest club rugby stadium in the country. Jon Ashworth, the MP for Leicester South, raised the issue in the House of Commons on Thursday, describing the decision as "absolutely ridiculous". Gloucester's Kingsholm is the only Aviva Premiership stadium on a list of 17 potential venues, 12 of which belong to football clubs in the Premier League or Football League.
But Young, who has worked for the International Rugby Board at the last three World Cups, pointed to the atmosphere generated in French football stadia during the 2007 tournament. And he insisted the same would happen in England.
"We have to make sure that rugby fans will get a proper rugby experience," Young said. "France is a good example. All the venues in France during the pool phase were football venues. It felt like a rugby event and hopefully we will be able to serve beer in England, which will make it even more like a rugby event!
"There were challenges in France but people still felt part of it. People said the French were fickle and they would never turn up for USA-Tonga but they did. There were average gates in excess of 43,000. If it is not a rugby experience then we have failed. We have certainly got to do that."
Welford Road, Leicester's home for 120 years, had been included as a venue in England's successful bid to host the World Cup and was lined up to host two midweek pool matches. But the 24,000-capacity stadium was ultimately rejected because its pitch size and facilities failed to meet the hosting standards laid down by Rugby World Cup Ltd.
Leicester chairman Peter Tom reacted angrily, arguing that Welford Road deserved its place at the World Cup because of the club's contribution to English rugby. Young countered: "It is the same as saying 'wouldn't it have been nice to have the Olympics at Crystal Palace?
"There is always an emotional aspect to it but if we are to provide a platform for the best in the world, the romance has to move away (from the decision). Rugby is an elite sport and for the last two tournaments the hosts have been set a number of minimum criteria.
"We have taken on board feedback from team managers and that goes through to floodlight lux levels, anti-doping facilities, changing room sizes, pitch sizes. If you couldn't meet any or one of the sporting criteria, you wouldn't go on to the next stage. Unfortunately, where Welford Rd was concerned, from those strict policies it was impossible to fit that into the current configuration."
There will be two standard pitch sizes in place for the World Cup and Young explained that even the smaller of those configurations - 95 metres by 68 metres - would not fit into Welford Road without removing three rows of seats. The evaluation committee also decided Welford Road did not meet the minimum requirements with regards to changing rooms, anti-doping, broadcast and media facilities.
One source familiar with England's successful bid believes RWC Ltd unfairly moved the goalposts on Leicester, arguing that pitch size was never raised as an issue during the bid process.
"After the bid was submitted, the IRB then carried out a comparative analysis with all the other bids and came back on a number of areas requiring clarification and additional detail," the source told Press Association Sport.
"Pitch size was not one of them. The bid was deemed acceptable on that issue so why the change of criteria? With no-one from the RFU bid team still at the RFU, the IRB will move the goalposts."
The IRB and ER2015 maintain the initial bid was never binding and refer to the fact that the last two World Cups had standardised pitch sizes.

Korn embrace the future on The Path of Totality, their tenth full-length studio album and second for Roadrunner Records. Infusing dubstep anarchy into their signature sound, the legendary quartet stand on the cusp of a musical revolution for both hard rock and electronica. Korn are no strangers to revolution though. In fact, they've been purveyors of heavy music's progression since forming in Bakersfield, CA in 1994 and becoming one of the most influential entities that the genre has ever seen.
Their legendary self-titled debut took the world by storm with its schizophrenic metallic catharsis. No one had ever played heavy music with such personal lyrics and funked-out grooves. Immediately, they earned a place in the hearts of fans across the globe. However, their third offering, 1998's Follow the Leader, bridged the gap between hip hop and heavy metal more seamlessly than any album before or after, and it solidified them as inspirational innovators.
Numerous acts "followed the leader", and heavy metal underwent a renaissance in the early 2000s with Korn at the forefront. Slipknot, Staind, Disturbed, and countless others nodded to the group as an inspiration. In addition, they've garnered two Grammy Awards— one for Best Short Form Video for "Freak on a Leash" from Follow the Leader and one for Best Metal Performance for "Here to Stay" from 2002's Untouchables—and sold 35 million albums worldwide.
However, they're ushering in a new horizon for heavy music with The Path of Totality. Collaborating with dubstep heavyweights Skrillex, Excision, Downlink, Noisia, Feed Me, 12th Planet, and Flinch, Korn have constructed a hypnotic hybrid of dubstep and metal. Bouncing from polyrhythmic guitar pummeling into drastic electro drops, the music is dark, dangerous, and definitive Korn. "It's future metal," declares vocalist Jonathan Davis. "We're mixing metal and electro music, and you're not supposed to do that. Since day one, Korn has always been all about going against the grain, experimenting, and trying to take music different places."Shaffer affirms, "You need to be pushed out of your comfort zone to take chances. We were able to do that by collaborating with all of these brilliant writers and challenging ourselves. We're still pushing ourselves to grow."
In 2009, Davis began to envision the place where Korn would venture next. A lifelong electronic music fan and DJ, he'd cruise Beatport and fervently download the latest tracks from various underground dubstep artists. Last year, his obsession intensified. Speaking to his band mates James "Munky" Shaffer [Guitar], Reggie "Fieldy" Arvizu [Bass], and Ray Luzier [Drums], the four agreed to tread new ground and incorporate dubstep into a couple of tracks. Davis called longtime Korn fan and rising electronic music star Skrillex to join the band at his studio for a collaboration. After merely three hours, "Get Up!" was born. A staggering deluge of wobbling synths, bludgeoning riffs, and propulsive hooks, the song instantly became a 21st century arena-ready anthem in the vein of "Blind". Korn released "Get Up!" in May 2011 and it caught fire online, selling over 200k digital downloads. "You can't help but get excited when you hear that song," smiles Fieldy. "That's how we knew we were on to something."
There was no question. Korn knew they needed to do an entire album following this muse. The band would record with dubstep DJs back in Davis's home studio in Bakersfield during inspired sessions. Vocals were actually tracked in the singer's home theater or in closets and hotels everywhere from Korea to Japan. The record came together at light speed. Before they knew it, the eleven songs comprising The Path of Totality were complete. "It was a very different recording process," Fieldy adds. "In fact, it was the most easy and organized album that we've ever done. We got a bunch of different flavors from the DJs. Instead of picking up a guitar or bass and jamming out, we'd get inspired by these weird sounds and work around them. It's a new approach to an old formula." Davis continues, "Everything simply fit with this record, and we were able to achieve our goal. It's a rebirth."
Ultimately, Korn's rebirth starts at The Path of Totality. "I want people to experience something sonically that they never have when they listen to this record," Shaffer states. Davis echoes that sentiment, "I want to trail-blaze. I want to change things. I want to do things we're not supposed to do. I want to create art that's different and not conform to what's going on. We didn't make a dubstep album. We made a Korn album." — Rick Florino, October 2011

DTP Plug-in Versioning Policy
[10/29/07]: This document is a draft. It has not been approved by the DTP PMC and should not be taken as DTP policy.
This document specifies plug-in versioning rules for DTP. That is, a policy for changing plug-in version numbers based on the types of changes made to the plug-in is specified below. We follow generally accepted Eclipse rules in this area, for example the versioning policy for the Eclipse platform. It is important that all DTP committers adhere to this policy so tools (such as Eclipse Update Manager) and DTP users can determine the types of changes present between two versions of a given plug-in.
- A DTP plug-in version number has four fields, separated by a ".": Major.Minor.Service.Qualifier
- A major change indicates breakage in API or significant new/reorganization of functionality.
- A minor change indicates changes visible to users or extenders of DTP.
- A service change indicates bug fixes.
- A qualifier change indicates the plug-in has changed.
Fundamental Constraint
Whatever is done to plug-in version numbers following this policy, each update must result in a number that is monotonically increasing. Otherwise, the Eclipse Update Manager will not detect the newer version of the plug-in, and users' DTP installations will be rendered inconsistent. If you believe that the policy expressed herein requires breaking this fundamental constraint, immediately notify the DTP PMC for direction.
- The major, minor, and service fields respectively are to be incremented only once per DTP stream release cycle, depending on the type of change as described above. For example, "1.5.0" can go to "1.5.1" during a release cycle, but not "1.5.2" or higher.
- The qualifier field is to be updated whenever anything in CVS for the plug-in is changed.
- The precendence of the fields is major > minor > service. When a higher precedece field is updated, fields of lower precendence should be reset to 0 ("zero"). Note:
- The precedence rules mean that the major field can not be reset to 0.
- The qualifier field is updated separately, and is not simply incremented nor reset to zero (see below).
- If a field is reset to 0, then it may be incremented again during a release cycle.
Qualifier Field Format
The qualifier field must be "YearMonthDateIteration." For example, if the last update to a plug-in were on October 29, 2007, then the qualifier field would show "200710291." If that same plug-in were updated again on the same calendar day, then the qualifier field would show "200710292."

NBP/NPN POLL: About Half Think State Headed in Right Direction, Immigration and Same Sex Marriage Support Problem for Candidates
A plurality of South Dakotans think the state is headed in the right direction.
Or looked at another way, just over half the respondents polled in the Nielson Brothers Polling/Northern Plains poll in late July think the state is headed in the wrong direction--or they can't make up their minds.
Just under half (49.8 percent) of the respondents polled July 23-28, 2014, responded that the state was headed in the "right direction." Over a quarter (28.1 percent), however, said the state was headed in the "wrong direction" with 22.1 percent "undecided."
NBP asked 618 respondents to reply on their telephone keypad. The margin of error is 3.92 percent.
Nielson Brothers Polling also asked about two current "hot button" issues: immigration and same sex marriage.
As to immigration, NBP asked 492 respondents if a candidate's support for a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants would make them more or less likely to vote for that candidate. That poll had a margin of error of 4.42 percent.
Nearly half of the respondents (48.3 percent) said it would make them "less" likely to vote for the candidate, 22.3 percent said it would make them "more" likely to vote for them, 14.6 percent said it made "no difference," and 14.8 percent were "unsure."
On same sex marriage, NBP asked 491 respondents if a candidate supported marriage for same sex couples, would they be "more" or "less" likely to vote for that candidate. That poll also had a margin of error of 4.42 percent. Over half of the respondents (51.7 percent) said it would make them "less likely" to vote for that candidate, while 28.8 percent said "more likely," 16 percent answered "no difference" and 3.5 percent were "unsure."
"Party affiliation is a major indicator with regard to both issues," said NBP partner Paul Nielson.
Concerning immigration, only 36.9 percent of Democrats and 11.3 percent of Republicans would be more likely to support a candidate that supports immigration reform.
However, 60.9 percent of Republicans and 36.7 percent of Democrats are more likely to vote against that candidate With regard to same sex marriage, 44.4 percent of Democrats and 15.4 percent of Republicans are more likely to vote for a candidate that supports it.
On the other hand, over two thirds of Republicans (67.4 percent) and around a third of Democrats (34.6 percent) would be "less likely" to vote for a candidate supporting same sex marriage.

Why are Kenyans still brilliant runners but disappointing footballers?
When Churchill was asked for the secret of his long and healthy life, he famously quipped: "No sport!" (that was Winston, not Kenya's beloved entertainer). The British PM would have been a poor ambassador for the London Olympics, which just ended in great fanfare.
Today, many would challenge his perspective. Obesity is a massive problem in rich societies and rapidly becoming one in emerging economies too. As a result, heart disease and diabetes are also on the rise.
But for me, sport means so much more than just personal fitness. I practiced Judo competitively as a child, which helped me to stay focused, taught me important life skills –especially teamwork— and formed friendships that have lasted until this day. My passion for sport has been reenergized in Kenya, where you can be outdoors all day long and all year round… much better than sitting in front of the TV (football games excepted).
But at the macro level, is sport also contributing to national development? Does it help or hurt in building a nation and growing an economy?

Associate of Science in Medical Assisting
AllHealthcare Degree Center
An Associate of Science in Medical Assisting combines clinical training with classroom education. The program typically takes 1-2 years to complete, and a degree is awarded after successfully passing a minimum number of academic units. While there is on-the-job-training and certificate programs for medical assisting, an Associate of Science in Medical Assisting goes a step beyond by increasing the classroom education. Courses cover anatomy, physiology, and medical terminology, as well as typing, transcription, recordkeeping, accounting, and insurance processing. Students learn laboratory techniques, clinical and diagnostic procedures, pharmaceutical principles, the administration of medications, and first aid. They study office practices, patient relations, medical law, and ethics.
An AS in Medical Assisting is a great degree whether you want to stay in Medical Assisting or move on to a technician or medical records job. An AS gives you a solid foundation in the health sciences as well as the clinical know-how to advance your career.
A Medical Assistant with an Associate of Science degree can make up to $15/hr, while a Medical Assistant with no degree makes an average of $11/hr.
Career options:
• Medical Assistant
• Medical Records
• Medical Secretary

Remember the Where's Waldo books? A modern classic series back in the Age of Print. Big hardcovers that opened to panoramic cartoons of countless people in quirky settings engaged in practically every possible human behavior except fornication. And somewhere on every spread stood Waldo, hiding in plain sight: round-frame glasses, goofy-cool striped hat, smile. The idea of the book was simple and sweet: find Waldo. Ah, good times.
And now, an updated, wined-up version: Where's Hardy? Read the rest of this entry »

DALLAS -- Former SMU coach Jimmy Tubbs, who was fired after two seasons in 2006 when an internal investigation revealed NCAA violations, has died. He was 60.
SMU spokesman Brad Sutton said Tubbs died Saturday. No cause of death was given.
Tubbs was a popular choice to lead the Mustangs because he'd spent 12 years as an SMU assistant before going to Oklahoma for two seasons under Kelvin Sampson. He was also a championship-winning high school coach in Dallas, a fertile recruiting ground SMU has always struggled to tap.
The Mustangs were 27-30 in Tubbs' two seasons. He was 232-42 at Dallas Kimball High School, including the 1990 Class 5A state championship.
The Oakwood, Texas, native is survived by his son, Andrew.

is this bleeder screw able to be used as a replacement for the bleeder screw on the clutch. I have a 1994 YJ and recently replaced my Clutch Master Cylinder, but not the slave. While bleeding the clutch after installing the new master cylinder, I noticed the bleeder screw could probably be replaced.

How did you find out you were HIV positive?
I got tested because someone that I was having a sexual relationship with died from the AIDS virus. His brother actually had run into me in downtown Brooklyn and gave me this news. But that was not the person who actually infected me.
My daughter, Raven, was born in June 1990 -- I had her tested at the age of 18 months. When her results came back positive, I had had no kind of sexual relationship then with anyone but her dad from the time I got pregnant with her until the time she was born. I decided, "Well, let me go contact him," under the impression that I might have infected him. It was not until I notified him that both his daughter and I had tested positive that he blatantly said to me, "Ain't life a bitch. You know how long I have been living with this?" He found out, incidentally, when I was four month's pregnant that he had contracted the HIV virus and never told me anything.
I really have to say that, back in 1991, it was very hard for African-American men to come forward. We were both active users of cocaine. He was my cocaine partner. I think it was not in an atmosphere or a situation that was feasible for him to tell me.
We were both victims of systems. In my pregnancy, I had health insurance. I was working in a very well-known, prominent hospital, and I think that because I was in that category of "private insurance," even though I was enrolled in a high-risk clinic because of my drug use, I was never offered an HIV test. I could have made use of the AZT regimen that was available to pregnant women at that time and protected my daughter from the virus. That's why I said we were victims of systems that failed us.
How did your feelings about living with HIV change over time?
When I was first diagnosed, every bit of fear came into me because I am an immigrant -- not an American citizen. I did not have a green card at that time. I was also being severely battered in a household with someone who was another drug abuser. So I was just under the impression that "Oh, my God, they're going to take my kids away from me. These kids are American citizens. They're going to take my kids away from me and they're going to deport me." So it was major fear.
It changed over time. The organization where I got tested and got into supportive services did a wonderful job ensuring that no part of my care would be linked to the Immigration and Naturalization Services -- from legal services to housing support to family counseling. It's what I call "the menu" -- when you get diagnosed, if you have access to these services, it tends to give you a better perspective: "I can fight this. I can do this." The other part was, I was introduced to a community of people who were living with the virus. And I gotta say, in fact, that it was gay white men that I befriended. And also, I attended this conference that the New York State AIDS Institute had.
So I had an opportunity to meet other people who were living with the virus, who were having a very hard time because, back then, what did we have? But they were learning about medications and services, and funding was now being allocated, and it was these people that gave me hope. That gave me support. It made it easier for me.
How long do you think it takes to process a diagnosis?
It could take one day ... it could take 10 years. I still have my days. You know, I'm very hopeful, I keep talking about how blessed and fortunate I am. But I still have days because society has -- We are ostracized. We are discriminated against. We are stigmatized.
And I have my days that I say, "My gosh, if I didn't have this disease, what would have made things better? Would it have been better? Would it have been worse?" But I have it, and what's keeping me going is, I am doing something about it. And I always say there are hundreds and hundreds of Michelle Lopezes that are still out there today.
I came from a very difficult childhood. I'm an incest survivor, and I truly believe these are factors that came into my life from my childhood and I think this is the outcome. But, again, I am very fortunate that I have the opportunity to do something about it.
What advice would you give someone who has just found out they are positive?
To not segregate themselves, and to seek out and find a community of us who are living with it and doing something about it. Because we are a family and we need as much as we can to keep this family growing. We still need representation of those of us infected to be within the decision-making. When you talk about HIV and AIDS affecting blacks and Latinos and immigrants -- if you look at all of us, we already have some kind of strike against us, and now HIV comes into the picture. So those of us who are infected, we gotta do double the work. Each of us can teach a newly diagnosed person out there something to give them that hope and that menu of survival. We must pass it on.
What conditions in your life put you at risk for getting infected?
My immigrant status, my drug use. You know, I always tend to say, "Oh, I didn't do crack. I wasn't a crack head." I used to sniff cocaine. I used to transport drugs for drug dealers, and that was my method of survival. I did engage in sex work for a period of time where it was in like an escort capacity. So I always felt like, "Oh, I did it in a much better class." But you know what? An addict is an addict. A sex worker is a sex worker. And so I think I just choose these comfort zones so as not to deal with this whole notion of "I am better than" or "I am somebody." Because no matter what, when I was homeless, when I was out there using myself up, nobody was better than me.
My self-esteem also made me submissive to a lot of abuse, and being an immigrant in this country, knowing that I had this strike against me. And still today I cannot get a green card because of a horrible congressional law in Congress called the HIV ban. We must get the United States to lift that ban because it affects immigrants living here. There is still a tremendous amount of work that needs to be done, and I say, "Stay tuned. Because Congress is going to lift that ban and it's going to be Michelle Lopez that is going to lead that campaign. And I'm going to win!"
When you look back, what would you have needed in order not to get infected?
I would have needed an opportunity, for one, to be able as an immigrant to have access to proper schooling. You know, a green card for me -- it plays a significant role in an immigrant person's life. I work, and I support my kids, and I pay my bills, and I'm a law-abiding person. If I had certain resources available to me as a young teenage girl migrating from the Caribbean: I needed family therapy. I needed a therapist to be able to say, "At the age of 16, I was brought to the United States by my aunt because my parents were having a very difficult time with me being rebellious growing up as a teenager." But they never had an opportunity to put a handle on "Why is she doing these things?" They just knew that I was a bad, rude, disruptive kid.
My first trauma came into my life from age seven until 10, when I was sexually molested by my three godbrothers. My parents would take me to a gynecologist to get treated, but had no connect that somebody was molesting this kid. That's why she was coming down with these STDs. That's why she was so rebellious. That's why she kept getting into fights. This is why she attempted suicide three times. They didn't understand what that cry for help was about. So, they sent me to the United States because I got involved with gangs in the Caribbean. They sent me to the belly of the beast! But I didn't join a gang. I just engaged in behaviors so that I could survive. I just wanted to survive.
I share things with my children today. And I let them know of the situations that came into Mommy's life. The things that happened to me, I'm not going to let happen to them.
My mom was an incest survivor. My sisters, they have been molested by other family members also. So certain cycles just had to be broken, and I believe that I have broken that cycle.
How has HIV changed you?
HIV has opened up my eyes to life: It's what you make of it. I took some lemons and I made lemonade. And I made some damn good lemonade! I'm still making that lemonade because, as I get older, as my children get older, my needs have changed and I can't become complacent. I want more for myself. I want more for my community. I want more for my children. This has just made me more of a fighter. I want to continue to let people know that we all can do this together.
And I love the different people that I meet. HIV has made me be more tolerant and more appreciative of who I am, what I have in my life, but also able to share it with another person.
Tell us a little about your life?
We live in the Bronx, in a community that is predominantly Latino, with a population of African Americans. It has an immigrant component also to it. A lot of young people, families, a working-class population. But I don't do much inside -- I go outside of my community to commune. That's why I am doing a search right now to move to Brooklyn. I want to move back to my past neighborhood and I want to be closer to my church.
Where did you grow up?
I grew up in Trinidad.
What did you want to be when you were a kid?
I wanted to be a journalist.
What kinds of work have you done?
Oh, wow! I have worked as a biller, in customer service. I have done babysitting work as a nanny. I have done work in the health field. Oh my God, I have done a lot. But you know what? The work that I always tend to do, now that I sit and I look back, is all people-related. I like working in the public health community sector, giving services to people.
What work did your parents do?
My dad was a longshore foreman, and my mom worked in the court system as a custodian, a civil servant, and even building streets and stuff. Both my parents were very, very hard-working people, and they gave their kids whatever we wanted, my God!
Who are the most influential people in your life, both professionally and personally?
Personally, my spiritual mom and my mother. Professionally, Oprah Winfrey!
Do you consider yourself an AIDS activist? What does that mean to you?
I do consider myself an AIDS activist. Activism means being able to fight for what I know is still needed, or being able also to teach a person what we should be doing as a people; being able to stand up for what we want.
What do you like to do in your spare time?
I love to read. I love going to Broadway shows. I love shopping! I love bike riding -- if I had a better opportunity to be able to purchase a bike, I would do it!
Are you a religious or spiritual person?
I'm a very spiritual person.
Do you attend a church?
Yes, indeed. I am proud of my church, the Court of St. Michael. It is a spiritual Baptist church. We pray to God. But we also do uplift our ancestors and the Orishas, and the deities that have walked the earth. My minister -- the reverend -- is a female.
How does the church address HIV? Do you feel accepted as a person with HIV?
That's how I met my minister, please! She participated in Balm in Gilead's Week of Prayer for the Healing of AIDS. She has provided a tremendous amount of support to individuals who are infected with this disease. It's a humble little church. It's not even one of the big ministries. Her church is in the basement of her house. God, she's an amazing woman. I love her! She has helped me get closer to God. Whew! When I talk about her, I get emotional!

Revision as of 16:06, 24 June 2011
Overview of core client services
Orion provides a number of basic infrastructure services that can be used by client scripts for performing various tasks. These services have no user interface component and can be used within any page of a client application. This section of the guide outlines what services are available, along with simple examples of how to use them.
The orion.core.favorite service is used to access and store the user's bookmarks or favorites. While a user may opt to use their own browser's bookmark mechanism instead, there are some specific advantages to using Orion's favorite service instead:
- Favorites are persisted on the server, so the user can switch to another client computer or browser and access their familiar bookmarks
- Favorites are associated with a specific Orion application and user, so favorites from different users or applications are not all mixed into a single place.
Here is an example usage of the favorites service:
serviceRegistry.getService("orion.core.favorite").then(function(service) { service.makeFavorites(item); });
See orion.favorites.FavoritesService in the Orion client API reference for a complete list of functions available on the favorite service.
The orion.core.file service is used to provide file system contents for the Orion workspace. For example a plug-in can use this service to include content from one server into a workspace on another server. Each file service is displayed as a root element in the Orion Navigator page.
The code snippet below demonstrates an use of this service:
provider.registerServiceProvider("orion.core.file", service, {Name: 'Sample File System'});
The above code will contribute a top level node to the Navigator named "Sample File System". The parameter "service" in the API above must provide the functions specified by the Orion file client API. Refer to orion.fileClient.FileClient in the client API reference for further details. For more information on client-server interaction, see Orion File Server API. For an complete file system example, see the sample file plugin in the Orion Git repository.
The marker service is used to store problems found by a builder or syntax validator. A client can register with this service for notification when markers are changed. Here is an example of a component that is registering for notification of marker changes:
serviceRegistry.getService("orion.core.marker").then(function(markers) { markers.addEventListener("problemsChanged", function(problems) { //do something with the new problems }); });
Each marker is a simple JSON object with the following properties:
- reason
- A string stating the description of the problem or marker
- line
- The line number of the marker
- character
- The column position of the marker
The preferences service manages a hierarchical set of preference nodes. Nodes are identified by a path string, where segments are delimited by the slash character ('/'). Each node is a JSON object with string keys and values that are String, Boolean, or Number.
Here is an example of retrieving a preference storing the list of recently used projects:
prefService.getPreferences("/window/recent").then(function(prefs) { var projects = prefs.get("projects"); if (typeof projects === "string") { projects = JSON.parse(projects); } if (projects && projects.length && projects.length > 0) { //do something with the projects } });
And here is an example of adding a new project to the list, and storing the result back in the preference service:
prefService.getPreferences("/window/recent").then(function(prefs) { var projects = prefs.get("projects"); if (typeof projects === "string") { projects = JSON.parse(projects); } projects.push({name: "My Proj", location: "http://example.com/myproj"}); prefs.put("projects", projects); });

Lure (GTA SA)
Carl Johnson explaining his decoy plan to Ran Fa Li and Su Xi Mu.
|GTA San Andreas
|Wu Zi Mu
|Chinatown, San Fierro, San Andreas
|$8000, Respect
|Amphibious Assault
|Unlocked by
|Ran Fa Li
- For the mission in Grand Theft Auto IV, see Lure (GTA IV).
Lure is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, given to protagonist Carl Johnson by San Fierro Triads leader Wu Zi Mu from his apartment in the Chinatown district of San Fierro, San Andreas.
Ran Fa Li has gone to Woozie's apartment in Chinatown, but now the Da Nang Boys are after him and he can't get back home. The Triads are planning a way to lure the Da Nang Boys out. Carl, meanwhile, offers himself to be a decoy to lure the Da Nang Boys so that Farlie can get out of Chinatown safely.
Carl gets in a Rancher parked outside the apartment. He drives to the sawmills in Angel Pine. Upon arriving there, he sees a couple of Da Nang Boys. The gangsters chase Carl, thinking the vehicle contains Farlie. Carl traverses through the heavily-forested areas of Flint County and Whetstone. After a long ride, Carl eventually stops at a gas station along the highway. Guppy then calls him, telling him that Woozie has taken Farlie into safety. Later on, the Da Nang Boys eventually realize it's a trap, which results into them getting back to Chinatown.
Wu Zi Mu: As honored as I am to share my home with you, we should lure these lizards out into the baking sun!
Ran Fa Li: (grunts)
Su Xi Mu: We were followed here. The Da Nang Boys are watching this apartment. As soon as we leave, they will attempt an assassination.
Carl Johnson: Hey, what's the big deal? Why don't you cruise on out of here, lead them to a quiet place and cap their flat asses - no offense.
Wu Zi Mu: None taken.
Ran Fa Li: (laughs)
Su Xi Mu: We find you funny.
Carl Johnson: Look, as long as they think Mr. Farlie here is in the back, they'll follow me wherever. After a while, you can come out safely - simple.
Wu Zi Mu: Heh-heh. Amazing.
Ran Fa Li: (grunts at Suzie)
Su Xi Mu: Your success will be rewarded, Mr. Johnson.
(Carl arrives at gas station, phone rings)
Carl Johnson: Eh.
Guppy: Mr. Johnson, it's Guppy, are you OK?
Carl Johnson: Yeah, it's nothing, they took the bait like morons! Mr. Ran Fa Li get out alright?
Guppy: Yes, Woozie has taken him to safety, thank you.
Carl Johnson: Cool. I'll see you later, man.
(Da Nang Boy reaches Carl)
Da Nang Boy: It's decoy, back to Chinatown!
The rewards for this mission are $8,000 and an increase in respect. The mission Amphibious Assault is unlocked. The AK-47 becomes avaliable for purchase at Ammu-Nation for $3500.
- Inside the game files, there is a Rancher with the internal name of "rncrlure", implying it was intended for this mission. Rncrlure has darkened windows for visual protection, a central element of this mission, but despite this a normal Rancher is used. If you use the cheat to spawn a Rancher it will spawn a Rncrlure. Rncrlure is unmodifiable at garages and doesn't comply for Exports and Imports.
- If one tries to go and respray the Rancher, it will instead remove its doors, making the player more noticeable.
- If, at any point, Carl exits the Rancher, the mission will fail, even if there is no Da Nang Boy around to see him
- The Rancher can be kept after completing the mission, which will become damage-proof.
Carl Johnson luring the Da Nang Boys deep in Whetstone and away from Wu Zi Mu's apartment.
The Da Nang Boys realize the plan after Ran Fa Li escapes.
