Just like in Asli Naqli, Dev Anand plays a rich man disillusioned by his prosperity. One day, a petty thief, played by Sudesh Kumar, breaks into his mansion and on being accosted, threatens to kill him. Anand acts wisely and pacifies the frayed nerves of the young thief and promises to not let the law punish him if he allows him to come and stay at his house in the nearby slum. Anand is so fed up with his riches that he wishes to taste poverty. So, Sudesh takes him to his house, where he and his elder sister, Mala, live. Mala is not informed of Anand's real identity. Thus starts the fun. Mala is ravishing and Anand is understandably quite struck by her beauty. He feels good to be with such a company and does not mind the hardships that he has to go through at this humble abode.
Mala (played by a beautiful Mala Sinha), is worried sick that her brother is fallen into bad company, namely the local rogue (a robust and hollering Jayant) and hence is doing wrong things. She wants him to find a decent job and be back on good tracks. Extracting a promise from Sudesh that he will abide by his sister's wishes, Anand sees to it that he gets a decent job in an office. Everything is running well but the local rogue will have none of this peace in the locality.
He is irked that Sudesh is a good man now, that Anand is romancing Mala, the beauty he wants for himself and that slowly the residents of the locality are becoming brave enough to ward off his goons with tough words. Here comes the struggle between will and weakness to easily fall prey to wickedness. Jayant sows the seed of misunderstandings in Sudesh's mind and he, a gullible man, accepts the bait. This results in a gargantuan miscommunication between Anand and Sudesh and Mala has to suffer in the process. A murderous attack on Anand also takes place. But every crease is ironed out in the end with the good souls going home happy.
In a nutshell, Maya is a twisted second coming of Asli Naqli. There are bits that are hugely enjoyable but there are also those moments where you feel how the Hrishikesh Mukherjee enterprise is so much better. I'd have loved to see Kashyap make better use of Helen, Lalita Pawar and Agha except for in one tiny song.
Dev Anand looks good and is spontaneous. Jayant has a powerful voice. There is one tiny scene near the end where you get to see the 12-year-old Amjad Khan sharing screen space with his real father! Sudesh Kumar is quite convincing as the impressionable young man. Mala Sinha is beautiful and does what is required of her. She is pleasing to the eye, has a soft and sensitive temperament but sometimes is a bit too weepy. Though I liked Mala Sinha quite a lot, I always thought she turned into a glamorous actor once technicolour came into being. Here she is a simple dame, with a ravishing smile and a charming personality.
Now for the best part. The songs. My favourite is Tasveer teri dil mein, a stupendously mind blowing romantic number sung superbly by Mohd Rafi and Lata Mangeshkar. History has it that while recording this track the singing sensations had a severe altercation over something, resulting in Lata not willing to sing with the master singer ever again. However, this track does not reveal any bitterness. It is beautifully rendered by the singers, every crest and trough of the notes are enunciated and every emotion is felt throughout the rendition. The lyrics are exemplary and the music is oh-so-sweet. I believe the simplicity of the picturisation makes the song even more spectacular. Imagine Anand singing, "Tujhsey nazar jab gayi hain mil, jahaan pe kadam tera wahin mera dil..." to a pretty Mala. What a pristine declaration of love. What an ethereal classic from Chowdhury. Even as I pen this post, I'm hearing the song on Youtube. And yes, I'm loving it all over again!!
The other wonderful track is Jaa rey udh jaarey panchi, a sensational sad number from Mangeshkar. The words breathe life into the dejection of Mala and the soulful music defines the pain in her heart.
The other songs are quite melodious too. There's the bouncy Koi sone ke dilwala, the awesome Phir ekbaar kaho and other nice tracks picturised on the scintillating Helen.
But, when it comes to the scenestealer it has to be Tasveer teri dil mein. Call it breathtaking melody or the piece de resistance, my vote and heart will always go to this mesmerising classic...

Brooklyn in Kings County, New York — The American Northeast (Mid-Atlantic)
Pieter Claesen Wyckoff House
Revolutionary War Heritage Trail
The house was built along Canarsie Lane, which linked the settlement of Canarsie with Kings Highway. During the Revolutionary War, Pieter and Grietje's great-great grandson, Peter A. Wyckoff, and his wife, Heyltie Remsen lived here with three small children and several slaves.
The Wyckoff house is an excellent example of Dutch Colonial vernacular style with its H-frame structure, shingled walls, split Dutch doors, and deep, flared "spring" eaves. Today, it is one of the few surviving examples of the many hundreds of such buildings that dotted the landscape of Kings County when British and American forces clashed in the Battle of Brooklyn on August 27, 1776.
The Pieter Claesen Wyckoff House is owned by the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation, is operated by the Wyckoff House & Association, and is a member of the Historic House Trust of New York City.
Erected by New York State.

I'm two weeks post-op. My nose seems very crooked. One side looks different than the other (however it was a bit different before surgery too). I had tip lifting and hump reduction with osteotomies. Should I be worried about the crookedness? Does everything look well? Is there a problem? Please, I need your help!
What is Wrong with my Nose Post-op? (photo)
Doctor Answers 2
Much early to make a pronouncement about what to expect from the outcome of your operation. It will take several months for the swelling to subside. Try to forget about the way your nose looks for now.
Web reference: http://www.zubowicz.com/subpag,25-atlanta-rhinoplasty.htm
I do not see anything particularly worrisome at this early date in the healing process. There is a great deal of swelling still present at 2 weeks, and some of this can lead to asymmetry and the appearance of a crooked nature to the nose. Also, perfect symmetry cannot be achieved.

Welcome to 10th grade English.MOV - Section 1: Let's Get Started...Expectations for Sophomore English
No Longer a Freshman: Setting Goals for 10th Grade
Lesson 1 of 8
Objective: SWBAT write an informative essay about him or herself by defining his or her interests and goals in writing.
Big Idea: Students will transform from freshmen to sophomores by establishing what they want to accomplish this year.
The third slide of the WELCOME powerpoint introduces the students to EDMODO. Edmodo is a free website where teachers can build an interactive class site. It is academic Facebook. It is a closed site so I control who is a member of the class on Edmodo. I can also create groups, post assignments, leave messages for the class, and contract students individually. Students can turn in work, ask questions, and work in groups. Once students submit work to Edmodo, I can grade it and give feedback. Usually about half the class has used Edmodo in another class. It is my goal to increase the efficiency and the use of technology in my class. So I start day one with the class website and introduction to Edmodo as a tool we will use.
For homework, students have to create an Edmodo account and participate in a survey (W 9-10. 6).
Resources (2)
Slides four and five of the powerpoint provide an opportunity for us to get to know one another. I tell them I have a life outside Tucson High and I share some of my interests. After I share my interests, I ask them to share two or three facts about themselves and one thing that they do not tolerate on an index card. The index cards are already on their tables.
I try to write my list so that it is somewhat provocative to illicit questions. I told them that I love to cook and I could butcher. This statement usually peaks curiosity. If they ask me why I can butcher, I can expand on my statement and explain that I learned when I was a Peace Corps volunteer in Benin, West Africa. I always have some hunters in the class who share they can butcher, too.
I hope this conversation inspires them to take risks on what they reveal about themselves.
Next I share my goals for 2013-14 and beyond. I ask them to write their goals on the back of their index card (W 9-10. 10). The students will use the information on their cards for interviews in our next class.
The final slide of the powerpoint is their homework. They have to sign up for Edmodo, join the class, and complete the survey. I ask a couple of the students to remind the class of the process to sign up and join Edmodo. Then, I answer any final questions before the bell.
When the bell rings, I collect their index cards. The index cards will determine their seating for the next class. I will place them randomly around the room before their next class. They will have to find their card so they know where to sit. My instructional style is all about community. From day one I want them to get to know one another and begin building the trust necessary for a strong and productive learning community.
Hi Angela,
Thank you for the feedback. The survey on Edmodo is called a poll. If you click on the poll tab it will as you to write a question. Then you can insert answer choices. As students take the poll, the tally will appear. It is a fun way to get to know your students. It also encourages them to register on Edmodo.
| 2 years ago | ReplyLoved your introductory lesson, Elizabeth. I started using Edmodo last year but would like to learn how to use it more effectively . I did not understand how the survey works. Would appreciate some guidelines about it. Thanks for sharing your lesson.

मध्य-आधार Under the law of the sea, an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) is a seazone over which a state has special rights over the exploration and use of marine resources.
Definition[संपादित करें]
Generally a state's EEZ extends to a distance of 200 nautical miles (370 km) out from its coast. The exception to this rule occurs when EEZs overlap; that is, state coastal baselines are less than 400 nautical miles apart. When an overlap occurs, it is up to the states to delineate the actual boundary.[1] Otherwise, any point within an overlapping area defaults to the most proximate state.[2]
The Exclusive Economic Zone starts at the coastal baseline and extends 200 nautical miles out into the sea, perpendicular to the baseline. Thus, the EEZ overlaps both the contiguous zone and territorial waters.[3]
Origin of EEZ[संपादित करें]
This concept of allotting nations EEZs to give better control of maritime affairs outside territorial limits gained acceptance in the late 20th century and was given binding international recognition by the Third United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea in 1982.
Part V, Article 55 of the Convention states:
- Specific legal regime of the Exclusive Economic Zone
- The Exclusive Economic Zone is an area beyond and adjacent to the territorial sea, subject to the specific legal regime established in this Part, under which the rights and jurisdiction of the coastal State and the rights and freedoms of other States are governed by the relevant provisions of this Convention.
Fisheries management is a significant aspect of the resulting control.
EEZ disputes[संपादित करें]
Disputes over the exact extent of Exclusive Economic Zones are a common source of conflict between states over marine waters.
- One well-known example of such a dispute is the Cod Wars between the United Kingdom and Iceland.
- The South China Sea (and the Spratly Islands) is the site of an ongoing dispute between several neighboring nations.
- There is an ongoing dispute over defining continental shelf and EEZ between Turkey and Greece.
Regions where a permanent ice shelf extends beyond the coastline are also sources of potential dispute.[4]
Rankings by area[संपादित करें]
By country[संपादित करें]
Argentina[संपादित करें]
1,159,063 km²
Australia[संपादित करें]
Australia has the third largest Exclusive Economic Zone, behind the United States and France, but ahead of Russia, with the total area actually exceeding that of its land territory. As per UN convention, Australia's EEZ generally extends 200 nautical miles (370 km) from the coastline of Australia and its external territories, except where a maritime delimitation agreement exists with another state.[5] Australia has also claimed, in its submission to the UN Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf, an EEZ of 200 nautical miles (370 km) from its Antarctic Territory but has requested it not be considered, in accordance with the Antarctic Treaty.[6] Nevertheless, Australia maintains the right to explore and exploit the seabed and water column within its EEZ.
EEZ | Area (km²)[7] |
Heard & McDonald Islands | 410,722 |
Christmas Island | 463,371 |
Cocos Islands | 325,021 |
Norfolk Island | 428,618 |
Macquarie Island | 471,837 |
Australia | 6,048,681 |
Brazil[संपादित करें]
- Continental shelf: 3,191,827 km²
- Trindade and Martim Vaz Island: 469,128 km²
- total: 3,660,955 km²
Canada[संपादित करें]
Canada is unusual in that its Exclusive Economic Zone, covering 2,755,564 km², is slightly smaller than its territorial waters.[8] The latter generally extend only 12 nautical miles from the shore, but also include inland marine waters such as Hudson Bay (about 300 nautical miles across), the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the internal waters of the Arctic archipelago.
European Union[संपादित करें]
The EEZ of the European Union is shared, so vessels or a national from one country can fish in another country's EEZ.[9] The combined zone amounts to 25 million km², making it larger than the United States' zone, the largest of any single country.[10] '"See: Common Fisheries Policy.
France[संपादित करें]
Due to its numerous overseas départements and territories scattered on all oceans of the planet, France possesses the second-largest EEZ in the world, covering 11,035,000 km² (4,260,000 mi²), just behind the EEZ of the United States (11,351,000 km² / 4,383,000 mi²), but ahead of the EEZ of Australia (8,232,000 km² / 3,178,000 mi²). According to a different calculation cited by the Pew Research Center, the EEZ of France would be 10,084,201 km² (3,893,532 mi²), behind the United States (12,174,629 km² / 4,700,651 mi²), but ahead of Australia (8,980,568 km² / 3,467,416 mi²) and Russia (7,566,673 km² / 2,921,508 mi²).
The EEZ of France covers approximately 8% of the total surface of all the EEZs of the world, whereas the land area of the French Republic is only 0.45% of the total land area of the Earth.
Greece[संपादित करें]
Greece has not yet claimed an exclusive economic zone, although it is entitled to do so, as per UNCLOS 1982 as well as customary international law. The reason for its inaction is the direct Turkish threat of casus belli.[तथ्य वांछित]
Turkey's declaration of casus belli is not related to the EEZ issue. Aegean Sea is a semi-closed sea which has a special nature. Moreover, Turkey is not among the signatories of UNCLOS which allows countries to expand width of their territorial waters up to 12 nautical miles. Besides, Turkey is a persistent objector to the relevant article of UNCLOS. In 1995, just after Greece's ratification of UNCLOS, Turkey declared that if Greece expands the width of her territorial waters over 6 nautical miles (e.g. 12 nautical miles), Turkey would conceive this action as a containment attempt and a direct offence to her sovereignty. So, Turkish Parliament decided that if Greece attempts to expand the width of her territorial waters it would be a cause of war (casus belli). EEZ problem -which is waiting for a viable solution- is just another problem between Turkey and Greece besides other problems.
Portugal[संपादित करें]
- Main land 327,667 km²
- Azores Islands 953,633 km²
- Madeira Islands 446,108 km²
- total : 1,727,408 km²
Portugal has the 3rd largest Exclusive Economic Zone of the EU and the 11th in the world.
United Kingdom[संपादित करें]
764,071 km²
- Ascension Island: 443,844 km²
- British Indian Ocean Tr. (UK): 636,600 km²
- Channel Islands (UK): 6,517 km²
- Gibraltar (UK): 331 km²
- Montserrat (UK): 8,247 km²
- Pitcairn (UK): 837,221 km²
- Saint Helena (UK): 446,616 km²
- Tristan da Cunha (UK): 749,612 km²
- Virgin Islands (UK): 80,701 km²
- total: 3,973,760 km²
India[संपादित करें]
- 1,641,514 km²
- Andaman ilands, 663,629 km²
- Total: 2,305,143 km²
Japan[संपादित करें]
- Marcus Island: 428,875 km²
- Ogasawara Islands: 862,782 km²
- Pacific Ocean (Japan): 1,162,334 km²
- Ryukyu Islands: 1,394,676 km²
- Sea of Japan: 630,721 km²
- total: 4,479,358
Japan has disputes over its EEZ boundaries with all its Asian neighbours (Russia, South Korea, PRC and ROC). The above and relevant maps at the Sea Around Us Project[11][12] both indicates Japan's claimed boundaries, and does not take into account neighbouring power's claims.
New Zealand[संपादित करें]
New Zealand's EEZ covers 4,083,744 km², according to the Sea Around Us Project,[13][14] which is approximately fifteen times the land area of the country. Sources vary significantly on the size of New Zealand's EEZ; for example, a recent government publication gave the area as roughly 4,300,000 km².[15] These figures are for the EEZ of New Zealand proper, and do not include the EEZs of other territories in the Realm of New Zealand (Tokelau, Niue, the Cook Islands and the Ross Dependency).
Norway[संपादित करें]
Norway has a large exclusive economic zone of 819 620 km² around its coast. The country has a fishing zone of 1,878,953 km², including fishing zones around Svalbard and Jan Mayen[16]. The fact that the European Union shares its economic zones was a big reason why Norway did not entered the EU as a member.
Pakistan[संपादित करें]
- 201,520 km²[17]
Russia[संपादित करें]
- Asia: 6,382,530
- Baltic: 24,549
- Barents Sea: 1,159,594
- total 7,566,673 km²

Absolutely unbelievable!
A little over a month ago, I sold a pretty valuable card ($1500) on Ebay. In the listing, we stated in the listing that it would be shipped via Registered USPS Priority Mail. Buyer paid by PayPal and we shipped it out the next day. Today I get an email from said buyer informing me that the package is en route back to me. Apparently, notices were left for him to pick up and he never did so. He is now demanding that I return the card as soon as I get it at my cost and is dictating that it not be sent registered. I have no problem returning the card to him, but I'm not about to foot the bill again after I've spent a good chunk of money to send it the first time. It was also stated in the auction that it was going to be sent Registered mail, so it's not like he wasn't aware of it. I'm not about to send something that valuable another way.
Frankly, I'm getting pretty fed up with the whole ebay scene. It's one ridiculous hassle after another. |

While I'm not a fan of getting to the post office to sign for a card, I'll do it when needed....wonder what his excuse was for not getting any of the notices they give (3 covering 2 weeks?)?

My only question for the Buyer is whats the guarantee he's actually going get off his lazy ............ and go to the Post Office this time. What would bother me is if his Post Office is a few blocks away from where he lives.
10-05-2007, 11:34 AM | #4 (permalink) |
It's a $1500 card. He needs to respond to the notices sent by the post office. It sucks you're having trouble with this.
If you made a nice profit on the card, I'd send it to him one more time and pay for it. I would let him know that the auction clearly states this method of shipping, and that it's the LAST time you are going to pay for shipping to him, so he'd better go get it from the post office. Let him know that this protects both of you. |
10-08-2007, 08:45 AM | #6 (permalink) |
Well the only problem is that he could file an paypal dispute and you would have no proof of delivery. You really cannot make him pay again, but if he left you positive feedback, I would leave him negative feedback and block him so you never have to deal with him again.

Four teenagers arrested over Canning Town 'samurai sword' attack
PUBLISHED: 16:42 18 February 2013 | UPDATED: 16:48 18 February 2013
Four young men, all aged between 17 and 18, have been arrested in connection with a stabbing in Canning Town on Wednesday.
Police said the teens were found in a minicab close to the scene where an 18-year-old had suffered stab wounds to the back.
They have all been bailed until May 29 pending further inquiries by officers surrounding the circumstances of the incident.
The victim has since been discharged from hospital and his injuries have been described as non-life-threatening and non-life-changing. Gang-related activity will be one line of inquiry but officers say they are keeping an open mind regarding a motive.
An eyewitness said the stab wounds were inflicted by a samurai sword but, although suspected weapons have been recovered for forensic examination, the type of blade remains unconfirmed.
Any witnesses or anyone with any information should call police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Boosts immune system.
I take this in the winter to help boost my immune system because I work around many kids that cough and sneeze on me... ImmunoBerry Liquid by Designs for Health is a great immune booster.
Not pills!
If I don't sleep well, this isn't enough to prevent me from getting sick.

My son's holistic doctor recommended this for our then 5 year old son (at a lesser dosage than that listed on the bottle), when his immune system seemed to be going through a weak spell . We used this in addition to another product he recommended (briar rose) and it did seem to help him build up his resistance to colds/viruses again.

WHAT'S GOING ON Aug 6, 2006 I RECENTLY HAD TO STOP MEDICATION DUE TO A FINANCE ISSUE. I WAS TAKING VIRAMUNE,RETROVIR,ZERIT. MY URINE IS VERY YELLOW,SOMETIMES IT HURTS TO GO. MY HANDS HAVE HARD KNOTS IN THEM AND THEY ARE ALL BUT USELESS. WERE THE MEDICATIONS HIDING THESE THINGS,OR DID THEY CAUSE THEM? I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY BODY NOW. |
Response from Dr. Conway
Of all the issues that you raise, the only one that may be related to your mrdications seems to be the "knots" in your hands, that may be due to neuropathy, often associated with Zerit. As for what is causing the urinary symptoms and feelings in your hands, I cannot think of a single diagnosis that links them. I am not sure if they are caused by your HIV disease or not. I would think that diagnostic tests are in order. I would advise you not to panic until you have more information and your options are clear. |

Make them pay or shut them down, this isn't a give and take situation.
Here we go. Just go after them for all of the cost, even if it means you put them out of business. Do not allow them to escape their responsibility, for the worst ecological disaster ever, in the US.
They should pay whatever it costs to clean up without a cap. It was their faulet and they have made enough profits to do so. Its time for all corporations to give back. The Bush years were very profitable for them so please spare me about costs.
And who gets stuck with the bill no matter what? Even if BP paid for everything we the consumer will have those costs passed down onto us in higher prices for gas and heating oil, and if the Federal government pays we get the shaft in higher national debt and higher taxes.
BP and the company that owns the rig should pay for every penny it costs to clean up and loss o fmoney to the people who live in the areas that are affected. They should also pay the government for any manpower and time that the government employees spent to help with this mess. For all the years that there has been drilling for oil you would think that they would have something in place to take care of a leak faster. They are only worried about their own pocket books.
Senators please raise the cap that bush and Cheney gave these greedy oil barons to at least 10 billion dollars to help the people who through their negligence will destroy the lively hood of millions of people on the gulf coast and possibly the Atlantic coast. Don't let these weasels get out of their responsibility due to their negligence.
How many billions have they made in profits? And now they think $75 MILLION is too much to pay in cleaning up their own mess?
What do these guys smoke for breakfast? And how many of our civil servants have they corrupted to even be able to talk that way?
In China, they would have shot these guys immediately, then promoted their VPs and given them a week to fix the situation, then shoot them and promote the next in line, 1 week deadline (gotta love the pun) and so on.
There needs to be an independent investigation of any sabotoge to this rig.
It seems that a lib might have caused this, as they usually do create environmental disasters as they protest about how they care about the environment. It also seems convienent for Obama to now switch his pro drilling mainstream stance to apease his radical worshipers who want to criple our nation like Carter did in the 70s.
Libs are crazy and sick.
So if your business was ruined by the carelessness of others and the money BP legally has to pay runs out before you get any, then you are really to small to do anything about it. BTW, don't forget to stop by BP's gas pumps and contribute some more to their quarterly profits.
Gulf coast states don't get a fair portion of the revenue benefits from offshore drilling, but they have to endure an extreme exposure to their environment.
Did anyone really think BP would pay for what they have destroyed; or that our Government would make them? The wealthy never seem to have to suffer for thier mistakes, the rest of us always do.
If BP doesn't pay every legitimate claim, then they need to be taxed higher than anyone else so that the money can clean up their mess. They (and others) haven't done enough investing in the clean up technology as they should have.
Let's just "trust the oil companies" like Sarah Palin says we should. I'm sure they'll do the right thing. Not.
How does "Pay, Baby, Pay" sound???????
I understand that Mr. Hayward is playing coy about whether or not BP will pay for any expenses exceeding the legal cap.
I just hope that he is smart enought to know that if BP doesn't pay for EVERYTHING, the ramifications and backlash from the American people against BP and the oil industry will cost them far more than a few paltry billion dollars.
He needs to realize this oil spill is a game changing event and their in-the-pocket Republican senators and congressional reps will not be able to save them.
This is the free-market that the Sarah Palin and tea-party wants us to put our trust in for economic recovery? God help us!
This sort of law should not have a cap cost on it. These companies with record profits can afford to pay for these damages without hurting anything but a bonus or two.
First, they are insured. Second, there is the fund, and third, when you report earnings of 5-30 billion dollars in a quarter, offering to pay pay 10 billion should be nothing. If it costs more then you negotiate, but step up and take the hit like any individual would if a tree fell on a neightbors home.
"Federal law currently caps economic damages from an oil spill at $75 million"
I want to know how and when this became law, who proposed the bill and who voted for it. This is the same as legalizing crime. Someone please post this information because the American people have a right to know who is sold them out for a few petro dollars.
Not only should they have to be responsible for the cleanup, but they should be responsible for the economic relief for people along the Gulf Coast affected by this.
Maybe President Obama will give back some of the money he got from BP to help them with the cost.
Pursue your legislation to raise the cap to $10 billion. I don't think even that's enough for this spill but it beats $75 million.
We'll be watching the Republican response to this.
If you have a $75 million cap why do you think that greedy oil companies will agree to pay beyond that amount?
Why is British Petroleum drilling off the coast of Florida? I thought that right was limited to the Chinese.
Why don't we just go off the coast of Yemen and drill there? Other countgries drill where ever.
$75 million is such a paltry amount to BP. Their CEO alone probably makes more than that in a year's "compensation". While people are starving because their livelihood has been destroyed, these guys will still be dining at their 5 star restaurants.
Nelson looks for political gain! Dems will say anything and do anything including lie to gain more control. When did Nelson get all his perceived Oil knowledge?
Drill baby dril and spill baby spill. If they have to pay up then litigate litigate litigate!
These oil companies SHOULD NOT bea allowed to drill if they DO NOT have the proper safeguards in effect. They are simply playing the odds that nothing will happen and if it does they they can drag out litigation until an oil company proponents are in the majority!
Then payouts to big oil execs and the fisherman who make their livelihood from a single shrimp boat are oil out of luck.

NYT commentary on the Earl Washington case
The New York Times has
this commentary
on the Earl Washington case, concluding: "What Mr. Washington now deserves is his good name back, devoid of further asterisks put next to it by brazenly inept criminal authorities. What the public deserves is an honest vetting of the judicial process that allowed his name to be sullied in the first place."

Porous-structured nickel oxide (PsNiO) was obtained through the oxidization of a nickel thin film. The nickel thin film was deposited using the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method on a nickel foil as a substrate. The results show uniform PsNiO after the oxidization of the nickel thin film at 750∘C for 1 h. X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicates formation of the NiO crystalline structure. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) reveals different morphology on the surface of the nickel foil (sample A) and on the nickel thin film (sample B). Comparison of the FESEM results after oxidization shows that the PsNiO on the nickel thin film was more regular and controllable than the NiO layer on the nickel foil. The FESEM images also show that the thickness of the nickel thin film affected the PsNiO size obtained after oxidization. This resulted from the growth of the porous structure at grain boundaries and from the grain sizes. The electrochemical properties of the PsNiO as an electrode are investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). These results show the effect of PsNiO size on the current of anodic peak.

A month ago, Pakistan came close to a political breakdown that could have triggered a military coup. How that crisis developed – and how it was ultimately defused – illuminates the larger story of a country whose frontier region President Obama recently described as "the most dangerous place in the world."
A detailed account of the March political confrontation emerged last week during a visit to Islamabad by Ambassador Richard Holbrooke and Adm. Mike Mullen. As described by U.S. and Pakistani officials, it's a story of political brinksmanship and, ultimately, of a settlement brokered by the Obama administration.
At stake was the survival of Pakistani democracy. Allies of President Asif Ali Zardari had attempted to cripple his political rival, former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. The opposition leader took to the streets in response, joining a "long march" to Islamabad to demand reinstatement of Pakistan's deposed chief justice, Iftikhar Chaudhry. The march threatened a violent street battle that could have forced Gen. Ashfaq Kiyani, the army chief of staff, to intervene.
The confrontation demonstrated the fragility of Pakistani politics. But it also showed that after some initial mistakes, the three key players – Zardari, Sharif and Kiyani – were able to defuse the crisis. The lesson for nervous Pakistan-watchers is that however enfeebled the country's elite may be, it isn't suicidal.
"I think Pakistan's politicians are growing up. They are realizing that you have to meet the people's needs or you get kicked out," says Shuja Nawaz, the author of "Crossed Swords," a study of the Pakistani military.
For the Obama administration, the Pakistani crisis posed the first big diplomatic test. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, joined by Holbrooke and Mullen, helped coax the Pakistani officials back from the brink. This intervention was deftly handled, but it deepened America's involvement in Pakistani politics – a process that is creating a dangerous anti-American backlash.
The crisis began in late February when the Zardari-backed Supreme Court ruled that Sharif and his brother Shahbaz, the chief minister of Punjab, could not hold office. The governor of Punjab, also a Zardari loyalist, then seized control of that powerful province – in what Pakistani commentators saw as a putsch by the president against his chief rival.
The lawyers' movement began its march on March 12, pledging to occupy Islamabad until the government restored Chaudhry to his post. Zardari sent a police force known as the Rangers into the streets of Lahore, apparently hoping to intimidate Sharif and the marchers. But Sharif evaded the police and joined the protesters as they headed north toward Islamabad.
Kiyani now faced the moment of decision. According to U.S. and Pakistani sources, Zardari asked the army chief to stop the march and protect Islamabad. Kiyani refused, after discussing the dilemma with his friend Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Meanwhile, Kiyani called Sharif and told him to return home to Lahore, according to one source. And he called the leader of the lawyers' movement, Aitzaz Ahsan, and told him to halt in the city of Gujranwala and wait for a government announcement.
Pressure on Zardari was also building within his People's Party. According to a U.S. official, Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani told the president on the night of March 15 that he would resign if Chaudhry wasn't reinstated. (Zardari's camp says it was only a rumor of resignation.) In any event, Gilani went on television at 5 a.m. the next morning to announce that the former chief justice would return. The crisis was over.
Pressure for compromise came from Clinton and Holbrooke, in phone calls to Zardari and Sharif. According to Pakistani sources, the American officials signaled to Sharif that they wouldn't object to his becoming president or prime minister some day. Another key intermediary was David Miliband, the British foreign secretary, who urged dialogue with Sharif.
Last week's visit by Holbrooke and Mullen reinforced the deal. They saw the key players and came away hoping that the three could form a united front against the Taliban insurgency in the Western frontier areas, rather than continue their political squabbling. Husain Haqqani, Pakistan's ambassador to Washington, praised Holbrooke's diplomacy. "He brings hope that complex problems will be resolved."
On the political scorecard, Zardari came out a loser and Sharif and Gilani as winners. But the decisive actor was Kiyani, who managed to defuse the crisis without bringing the army into the streets.

SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Pomerantz Law Firm Investigates Claims On Behalf of Investors of Key Energy Services, Inc. - KEG
May 09, 2014, 14:06 ET from Pomerantz LLP
NEW YORK, May 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Key Energy Services, Inc. ("Key Energy" or the "Company")(NYSE: KEG). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at email@example.com or 1-888-476-6529, ext. 237.
The investigation concerns whether Key Energy and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
On January 6, 2014, the Company disclosed in a press release that Mexico State-owned oil giant Petroleos Mexicanos, or "PEMEX", one of Key Energy's largest customers, is conducting an audit of the Company's aggregate billings of $372 million under its contracts with PEMEX. As a result, the Company expects to take a charge of between $2 million and $3 million in the fourth quarter 2013.
On this news, shares of Key Energy fell $0.28 per share to $7.55, or more than 3.57%, on January 7, 2013 in intraday trading.
On May 6, 2014, the Company announced in their recent Form 10-Q filing, that "[t]he U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has advised us that it is investigating possible violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act involving business activities of Key's operations in Russia."
On this news, shares of Key Energy fell $0.65 per share to $8.40, or more than 7.18%, from May 6, 2014 to May 8, 2014.
The Pomerantz Firm, with offices in New York, Chicago, San Diego and Florida, is acknowledged as one of the premier firms in the areas of corporate, securities, and antitrust class litigation. Founded by the late Abraham L. Pomerantz, known as the dean of the class action bar, the Pomerantz Firm pioneered the field of securities class actions. Today, more than 70 years later, the Pomerantz Firm continues in the tradition he established, fighting for the rights of the victims of securities fraud, breaches of fiduciary duty, and corporate misconduct. The Firm has recovered numerous multimillion-dollar damages awards on behalf of class members. See www.pomerantzlaw.com.

Squidward arrives at the Krusty Krab as happy as ever because of his upcoming clarinet recital. He is repeatedly getting pummelled, such as Thaddeus' morning breath in his face, or getting the door slammed on him, but since his clarinet is safe in a suitcase, he is happy. But when Nazz Rechid comes to the Krusty Krab, and her new baby drools on the clarinet, Squidward bursts with anger. He demands Mr. Krabs to give him a place to store his stuff, and Mr. Krabs gives him his Navy locker, and SpongeBob single-handedly cleans it.
He stores his toothbrush, while Squidward puts his clarinet in there, not risking it getting soiled before his presentation. While Squidward is going through his daily routines, he discovers SpongeBob is always doing something to the locker. In fear for his clarinet, he goes to see what happens, and leaves loose change on the floor when he was giving it to the customer. Just then, Mr. Krabs jumps out wildly and acts like a gorilla, scaring everyone away from the loose change he hears.
When Squidward crawls inside the locker, it is revealed SpongeBob had converted it to a whole room, and the second time he visits it, he finds his clarinet gone, and goes looking. He discovers a small door near the floor, and crawls through it, only to enter a mysterious forest, made of clarinets. He spots his, just before he is picked up by a large eagle, "The Keeper" of The Horned Forest or Clarinetland, who tells him to learn respect, and to grant peace to clarinets, and that a clarinet cannot be owned. In desperation, he claims he has learned respect and tries to escape, but the eagle, "The Keeper" does not believe him and swallows him.
Squidward then finds himself chasing SpongeBob for his clarinet, into a giant pinball machine, where Patrick in giant size says it is THE PRESSURE that is doing all of this, and then Squidward finds himself chasing SpongeBob, literally through space, and finally being back in the locker, and running off to his presentation. He then finds SpongeBob in his case, and runs from the stage, right before he gave the presentation, revealing he was giving him the clarinet.

- When Squidward opens the drawer after SpongeBob expands the second time, the case can be seen inside, but it then reveals the drawer to be empty with the exception of the note.
- There is an episode that comes later in the series called "InSPONGEiac," which has some similar events.
- At the beginning of the episode, Squidward is riding his recumbent bicycle, but in "Boating Buddies," he said that he sold it to someone. So, this episode should take place before "Boating Buddies" or he got a new one. Furthermore, he had one in the first movie.
- This is the second appearance of the Alternate-Universe Squidward following "The Algae's Always Greener." In this episode, he is the reflection of Squidward in the mirrors. The alternate-universe Squidward in this episode, however, could be just an illusion. This is unlikely though, as the clarinets come out of the mirror.
- This episode is said to have scared young viewers.
- In Indonesia, instead of SpongeBob saying " I MEANT 2019●3-F! Sorry," SpongeBob says "I MEANT 2019●3-....Sorry!" It may mean SpongeBob forgot the letter or didn't want Squidward to know about it.
- The locker appears again in SpongeBob Moves In!
Cultural references
- When Squidward says, 'You tell me, what in the Wide World of Sports is this place?', this might be a reference to ESPN's Wide World of Sports complex, located at Walt Disney World.
- The way Squidward enters Clarinetland, using the small locker is similar to the way the characters of Narnia enter to the land of Narnia.
- Squidward and SpongeBob tumbling through space to classical music is a reference to Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey.
- The title as well as the plot, is a reference to the 1865 book and the subsequent 1951 and 2010 movies Alice in Wonderland. It is also possibly a reference to the 1938 Looney Tunes short "Porky in Wackyland," directed by Bob Clampett, which features similarly surreal animation.
- The Keeper has a voice that sounds similar to The Kurgan from Highlanders.
- When Squidward throws SpongeBob into the bus and the bus says "FAR FAR AWAY," those words are a reference to Shrek because there's a place in that movie called Far Far Away.
- The title may be a reference to an old Looney Tunes short, "Porky In Wackyland".
- When Squidward tries to slam SpongeBob SquarePants, SpongeBob escaped from Squidward's grip, then he laughs upside-down in a hole before it vanishes.
- SpongeBob places his old and filthy toothbrush inside the locker next to Squidward's clarinet. However, later on, the toothbrush disappears and isn't seen for the rest of the episode. It is possible that it was relocated to one of the drawers inside the locker.
- When Squidward hands a book of "Bikini Bottom Labor Regulations," Mr. Krabs grows hives, claiming he is allergic to it, but in the next scene where Mr. Krabs holds the same book, he isn't affected at all.
- The suitcase is blue, however, at the end, it is purple.
- When Squidward crawled through the hole, the note was gone.
- When Thaddeus' breath punches Squidward in the face, his hat falls off, but when he gets back up, it's on his head again.
- When SpongeBob with load of appliances walks past Squidward while he is giving change, the Galley Grub is misspelled as "Gally Grub."
- Before Squidward opens the curtain to Clarinetland, he has his work hat on. After he opens the curtain, his work hat is gone for the rest of the episode.
- When the alternate universe Squidwards blow music at Squidward, he stands up briefly screaming. At this moment, he only had 2 legs instead of 4.

News Release — 7 October 2010
Media contact: Traci Peterson, (817) 272-9208, firstname.lastname@example.com
ARLINGTON - A UT Arlington anthropologist is
gaining national recognition for a theory that climate change following massive
volcanic eruptions drove Neanderthals to extinction and cleared the way for
modern humans to thrive in Europe and Asia.
Assistant professor Naomi Cleghorn worked on a research team led by
Liubov Vitaliena Golovanova and Vladimir Borisovich Doronichev of the ANO
Laboratory of Prehistory in St. Petersburg, Russia. She is co-author on a paper
published in the October issue of Current Anthropology. Stories about
the research have recently appeared in The
New York Times and on the USA
Today and National
Geographic News websites.
"[W]e offer the hypothesis that the Neanderthal demise occurred abruptly (on a
geological time-scale) ... after the most powerful volcanic activity in western
Eurasia during the period of Neanderthal evolutionary history," the researchers
write. "[T]his catastrophe not only drastically destroyed the ecological niches
of Neanderthal populations but also caused their mass physical depopulation."
Evidence for the catastrophe comes from Mezmaiskaya cave in the Caucasus
Mountains of southern Russia, a site rich in Neanderthal bones and artifacts.
Recent excavations of the cave revealed two distinct layers of volcanic ash
that coincide with large-scale volcanic events that occurred around 40,000
years ago, the researchers say.
Geological layers containing the ashes also hold evidence of an abrupt and
potentially devastating climate change. Sediment samples from the two layers
reveal greatly reduced pollen concentrations compared to surrounding layers.
That's an indication of a dramatic shift to a cooler and dryer climate, the
researchers say. Further, the second of the two eruptions seems to mark the end
of Neanderthal presence at Mezmaiskaya. Numerous Neanderthal bones, stone tools
and the bones of prey animals have been found in the geological layers below
the second ash deposit, but none are found above it.
The theory that climate change led to the Neanderthals extinction has been around for several years. The problem with that theory, however, is that the Neanderthals had survived several oscillations in environmental conditions in the past, Cleghorn said. Linking their extinction with a massive volcanic eruption makes more sense than tying it to a gradual climate change, the team believes.
"A volcanic event has a very rapid impact on the landscape," Cleghorn said. "The environment literally crashed at that point."
Cleghorn said her interest in the work stems from a desire to understand how these close cousins of modern humans could be wiped out.
The ash layers the team studied
correspond chronologically to what is known as the Campanian Ignimbrite
super-eruption which occurred around 40,000 years ago in modern day Italy, and
a smaller eruption thought to have occurred around the same time in the
Caucasus Mountains. The researchers argue that these eruptions caused a
"volcanic winter" as ash clouds obscured the sun's rays, possibly for
years. The climatic shift devastated the region's ecosystems, "possibly
resulting in the mass death of hominins and prey animals and the severe
alteration of foraging zones."
Anthropologists have long puzzled over the disappearance of the Neanderthals
and the apparently concurrent rise of modern humans. Was there some sort of
advantage that helped early modern humans out-compete their doomed cousins?
This research suggests that advantage may have been simple geographic location.
"Early moderns initially occupied the more southern parts of western Eurasia
and Africa and thus avoided much of the direct impact of the ... eruptions," the
researchers write.
While the researchers stress that more data from other areas in Eurasia are needed to fully test the volcanic hypothesis, they believe the Mezmaiskaya cave offers "important supporting evidence" for the idea of a volcanic extinction.

Ski patrols keep Wisconsin slopes safe
Ski patrols work to keep Wisconsin slopes safe
During the week, Greg Hyer is the mild-mannered interim director of the University Research Park, which was founded by the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1984 and now is home to about 125 companies with nearly 4,000 employees.
Come Sunday afternoon, he dons a red cape (actually it's a red jacket with a white cross on the back) and skis the slopes of Tyrol Basin near Mount Horeb as a member of the resort's roughly 80-member ski patrol. The group is affiliated with the National Ski Patrol, which celebrated its 75th anniversary last year.
Hyer, who is the crew boss of his weekend shift, joined the patrol 21 years ago after he'd been downhill skiing for about five years. He did it, he said, because he likes helping people, wanted to learn more about first aid and figured it would make him a better skier, too.
Hyer is just one of hundreds of men and women who patrol Midwest ski runs, responding to the occasional collision, twisted knee or trick gone wrong on a box or rail in a terrain park.
A native of Indiana, Hyer didn't begin skiing until he was in college, when he joined a group of adventurous friends for a cross-country skiing trip to Traverse City, Mich.
"It was a lot of fun, and I discovered that it was great to be outside in the winter," said Hyer, who went on to ski one Birkebeiner race as a Nordic skier in the 1980s and did several backcountry trips out West.
"I didn't take up downhill skiing until my mid-30s," he said. "And that was because my young kids didn't want to cross-country ski as much as I did. But they thought riding on a chair lift was really neat, so I switched over to alpine skiing to do it as a family winter activity with them."
It was while shopping for used gear at a Madison ski swap that Hyer learned about the patrol.
"Some members were there recruiting," he said. "I talked with them and was intrigued by the service part of it. I enjoyed skiing, figured this would be a way to give something back and jumped in. It's been a great experience over the years.
"And even though I was only a midlevel skier back then, I figured I might be good enough to join," he said.
Patrol members can ski for free at their home resort — and bring a friend or family member who gets to ski at no cost, too — while they are on duty.
"That was a great benefit for my family," Hyer said.
To qualify, Hyer took a 16-week course that met for about four hours once a week. There, he learned advanced first aid skills oriented toward outdoor emergencies, especially those that are often encountered on ski hills.
"We learned how to deal with both minor and serious injuries as quickly as possible on ski slopes, as well as advanced CPR," he said.
Once the snow began to fall, the class moved to Tyrol Basin, where he and other trainees spent 12 weeks in four-hour sessions once a week, learning how to improve their skiing technique and how to handle a toboggan to get injured skiers and snowboarders off the slopes.
Over the past two decades, Hyer has dealt with leg and hip fractures as well as an occasional concussion on the slopes.
"Fortunately, most injuries tend not to be that significant at ski hills," he said. "We have some, but in my experience they are relatively small given the number of people skiing and riding in Wisconsin. And fatalities are very rare."
He has become accustomed to bringing people down the slopes in a toboggan, however.
"Mostly that's for folks who have had a knee injury or can't get down the hill for some other reason," he said. "That's why we practice learning how to load people into the sled, secure them safely and get down the run to the base."
One patroller is at the head of the toboggan with the handles while a second person is behind with a rope to control the sled's speed.
"The rope is attached to the back of the toboggan and is kind of like an extra security brake," he said. "There can be a lot of weight, so you need to do it well so everyone is safe ...the person in the sled, others on the hill and yourself."
Most of the first aid work deals with stabilizing the injured skier or snowboarder, he said.
"We're trained to quickly assess the severity of an injury," he said. "If someone is bleeding, you want to keep it from getting worse. Then we stabilize them and transport them to additional first aid at the bottom of the hill and continue treatment until help comes from family, friends or an ambulance, if the problem is more severe."
Though the slopes have changed in the past decade with the addition of boxes, rails, jumps, half pipes and other terrain features, Hyer said he hasn't noticed a significant increase in injuries at Tyrol.
"That's surprised me a bit, but people in the terrain parks seem to know what they are doing," he said. "The injuries I see the most are twisted knees and breaks for skiers and hurt wrists with snowboarders."
In the old days, he said, skiers and snowboarders were expressly forbidden from doing aerial tricks, especially those where they were inverted or upside down.
Those stunts are common today. Tyrol, in fact, has a huge jump with a big, blue inflated pillow downslope where skiers and boarders can land relatively softly. They pay an extra fee to do aerial tricks off the big jump.
He said patrollers have less of a role as slope cops these days, too.
"When I started, some patrollers pulled tickets, and that can still happen for repeated rule violations," he said. "But now, in addition to first aid, there is more emphasis on education and interaction, setting a good example, and getting new skiers and riders to understand the culture of being respectful of others."
Getting there
Tyrol Basin Ski & Snowboard Area in Mount Horeb is about 100 miles west of Milwaukee via I-94 and Highway 18.

When Esti was in gr8, she had lots of her friends in the class with her. Whenever the teacher left theclass room, everybody would start talking, playing and taking photos. Nobodyever did
any studying. Whenshe got to gr 9 this year, only one of her friends went into her new class withher. All the others went toanother class. The first time the teacher left the class, she thought, O boy,
fun. She was verysurprised when the whole class just started studying on their own. She and her friendjust looked at each other, shook their heads and said, REALLY?
