Wow - I didn't realise it was going to be that big! It's a gift for a young member of the family - I think he'll be thrilled as he's a tractor fanatic at 6 years old. A practical gift too. The towel has a smoother upper side so it'll be more comfortable to sit on at the beach. It seems to have a thick absorbent power so no usual skinny beach towel.

This skill will develop gradually as they go from struggling to stay inside the lines, to perfecting this fine motor activity.

ABC tidbits
At first ABC stonewalled critics on the subject of "Lost" news due to be announced tomorrow at Comicon. Critics, cranky on the second-to-last day of the press tour, pushed back. Finally, a PR person tiptoed onstage and whispered in the ear of ABC Entertainment boss Stephen McPherson. He relented and released the following less than earth-shaking news: Harold Perrineau, who plays Michael on "Lost," will return to the series this season.
Meanwhile, "Harry Potter" audio book reader Jim Dale will serve as narrator for ABC's promising "Pushing Daisies" for the run of the series. "Pushing Daisies" is being promoted by the network as "a forensic fairy tale" created by Bryan Fuller ("Dead Like Me," "Heroes," "Wonderfalls"). Director Barry Sonnenfeld (the "Men in Black" movies) said he appreciated the early buzz the show is getting, with some critics even calling the show "Burtonesque," a reference to Tim Burton's "Edward Scissorhands" and "Beetle Juice" in particular.
"That makes me really thrilled, since my name is Sonnenfeld."

For Immediate Release
First Nations To Rally to Express Opposition
To The Harper Government's Attacks on Aboriginal Rights
Monday, Dec. 10, 2012 (Edmonton) Under what is being called a national day of action and solidarity, First Nations and their supporters have organized more than 13 nation-wide rallies for Monday (December 10) to express opposition the legislation the Harper Government has put forward in Bill C-45 and other bills.
The movement, under the banner "Idle No More" (#IdleNoMore) emerged within the grassroots less than four weeks ago in Saskatchewan. It began as an effort to educate First Nations people on the multitude of legislation being put forward by the Harper government that they feel is a direct attack on the rights of First Nations. The organizers Sylvia McAdam, Jess Gordon, Nina Wilson and Sheelah Mclean began by organizing "teach-ins" to inform people.
On Dec. 2, when another Idle No More session was called in Alberta, more than 150 people drove into Louis Bull First Nation on a Sunday to hear what the presenters had to say. The organizer for that event, Tanya Kappo, took to Twitter and Facebook to help generate awareness on the matter as the passage of Bill C45 was imminent. Says Kappo, "the people in our communities had absolutely no idea what we were facing, no idea what plans Stephen Harper had in store for us."
Sylvia McAdam, one of the organizers of the original Saskatchewan events stated, "We are not really surprised by the amount of support coming spontaneously from the grassroots and from the Chiefs, because we knew we could no longer stay silent in the face of what is a legislative attack on First Nation people and the lands and waters across the country." McAdam said, ""Bill C 45 is not just about a budget, it is a direct attack on First Nations lands and on the bodies of water we all share from across this country."
Opposition by First Nations to Bill C-45 garnered national attention last week during when 300 First Nations Chiefs marched on Parliament hill, and several Chiefs, led by Chief Fox, went inside Parliament to deliver a message to the government. This refusal to allow First Nations leadership to respectfully enter the House of Commons triggered an even greater mobilization of First Nation people across the country.
Rallies will be held on Monday, December 10 in Vancouver, Whitehorse, Calgary, Edmonton, Stand Off, Saskatoon, North Battleford, Winnipeg, Thunder Bay, Toronto and Goose Bay-Happy Valley. More information can be found at www.idlenomore.com and also on our Event Pages

Croatia Airlines won't order SSjs even if they were free. Unlike Slovenia, Croatia has policy towards Russia which can be described as best, buy Russian only as a last resolve, Last time Croatia bought anything from Russia was in 2010, Mil 171Sh helicopters.
Lesson from that is, never buy things from Russia, the experience was at best, excruciating. Space parts, support for helicopters and blackmail by Russians, ensured Croatia will never ever buy anything Russian.
Croatia will buy Russian oil and natural gas if price is right, however even there is issue, Russians like to blackmail countries, reason why Croatian oil and gas imports come from Libya, Algeria and Qatar.
So SSJs are no go. If Russian plane manufacturer was the only plane manufacturer in the world, perhaps than Croatia would purchase SSJs, reluctantly.

Fine example, where Russians were told to sod off, and Government stepped in.
As I've said, Croatia is very cautious when dealing with Russia. Visa regime for Russian tourists, despite 140 000 Russians visiting Croatia. Even in heyday when 200 000 Russians visited Croatia, visas were kept on.
Croatia has some really bad experience with Russia and Russians. Mil Helicopters and Mig Fighter jets was final straw, the parts Croatia tried to get from Russia for both fleets of aircraft was so difficult to get, and blackmail Russia resorted to, ensured Croatia is least likely to buy anything Russian.

Apparently the 1000 has almost same operating costs as the 200 plus bit more fuel use of course. That is very economical I reckon.
Downside is that the cabin height is quite low in the 1000. But unless you are taller than 1.95m it's fine.

Sa uzivanjem citam tvoje postove na T6, ali postoji jedan problem.
Tvoje tekstove jednostavno na tom portalu niko ne proverava pre objavljivanja i zbog toga ti se ponekad dogode greske kao prosle nedelje da napises kako Etihad leti za ZAG (umesto Emirates) sto bi neko svakako trebalo da proveri. Ocigledno je da je ta greska nastala ne zbog neznanja vec zbog brzine pisanja teksta ili jednostavnim previdom.
Pored ove greske bilo je i dosta slovnih propusta sto ipak ne bi trebalo da se dogadja. Pokusao sam par puta da ostavim komentar na T6 i ukazem na taj propust ali su moj svaki, ali bas svaki post kad sam to u najboljoj nameri ukazao obrisali.
Zato ti ovde (mozda i neprimereno) sa najboljom namerom skrecem paznju na to kako bi tvoji tekstovi na T6 pored sadrzajnog utiska ostavili i utisak pregledanog i prekontrolisanog teksta.

I potom kad se objavi pročitam ga još jednom te eventualne pronađene greške ispravim i nakon objavljivanja. I svejedno ostaju neke greške iako sam se ozbiljno trudio da se to ne desi i da ih pronađem tijekom prva dva čitanja. Stvarno mi nije jasno zašto je to tako. Uz sve check spelinge, uz kontrolu tijekom pisanja, dva čitanja, te još jedno ispravljanje uredništva (hvala Dina). I duboke isprike za to, ali očito je da će se to dešavati i u budućnosti. Ogromni tekstovi, velika mogućnost pogreške.

Q400s will remain in the fleet, they were bought through lease to own deal, OU paid 135 million for all 6 aircraft, with 10 annual payments + 2% interest.
Q400s will be used only on regional network, with in 550km radius of Zagreb. Vienna, Milan, Venezia, Budapest, Sarajevo, Skopje, Pristina, Dubrovnik, Bucharest, Munich, Nice, Lyon, Marseilles... (some of the destinations OU doesn't fly yet).
The likely choice is CS100 or CRJ 1000, however CS100 is more likely as Canadians are offering a really sweet deal on CS100.
Emberer 190 is also potential, it is very efficient aircraft, very good value for money, however getting a good deal on E190 isn't easy. Brazilians won't sell E190 under $33 million, price OU paid for brand new A319, and even A320 NEO deal is in the region @$47 million.
CS100 deal is much better, @$32 million, also Canadians offer great lease to own deal, so 6 aircraft can be bought for $200 million.

No they don't. OU flies 6 Q400s for nearly 10 years, so far only 3-4 incidents across entire Q400 fleet. That is nearly 80 000 flight operations and only 3-4 incidents.
Q400 is quite reliable and easy to maintain aircraft. Very cheap to run, and perfect for routes up to 700km distance. OU flies Q400 on Vienna, Zurich, Milan, Skopje, Sarajevo, Dubrovnik, Split, Zadar, Prague, Munich, Rome and Bucharest route.
It did fly Q400 to Copenhagen, Brussels and Amsterdam at some point due to lack of aircraft, but it no longer does. Reason why OU is looking for 100 seat jet CA100/E190 type of aircraft.

However, Croatian Airlines employs ~150 maintenance engineers, wast majority from Croatia, some from Slovenia, Hungary, Italy, France & Canada.
Clearly, we should be asking all of them, especially Canadians who are seconded from Bombardier, perhaps they can shed some light on Q400 problems.

No Serbs employed, not on en-mass, 6 were employed in 2013 and 2014, got fired and deported cause they worked in Croatia without working visa. OU fined 500 000 kuna for employing workers without proper documentation. EU working visa are essential requirement for work in Croatia. Also 3 Bosnians worked and a single Macedonian. But all left after EU laws applied.

Многе авио-компаније су имале проблема са Q400. Сетимо се SAS-а који их је у потпуности заменио са CRJ-900. Малев се исто мучио, сетимо се сцене на слетању у Скопље када нису могли да им се спусте точкови. Мислим да је и Остријам имао сличан проблем на истом аеродрому.Delete

The information was already posted on this blog about it, with the links. This was posted over 2 years ago. Sorry i am not going to look for the links.
OU hired staff with qualifications, they didn't even knew individuals were only Serbian nationals, at least with one of the Serbians was that he had Croatian mom, and had right to live in Croatia. This in fact under Croatian law isn't correct. only people born in Croatia to Croatian citizens have automatic right to Croatian citizenship.
Also, getting a work permit in Croatia before 2013 was really easy, or even a Croatian passport, issued in Mostar, affair that exposed sale of 6000 Croatian (fake) passports through Mostar General Consulate.
Getting work permit these days for non-EU nationals is very hard, as work permit also allows for free movement in the EU, such permits are never issued lightly.

For Croatia, very easy to refuse. In fact SSjs won't be considered even if offered for free.
First EU sanctions, 2nd, Croatia has really bad experience with Russians, in fact terrible experience. Mil 171 Sh and Mil 8 support contracts were a real nightmare for Croatia.
A lesson Croatia won't repeat again. SSJ has no chance in Croatia, no Russian company has. Even Russian investments in to Croatia are looked on in very negative light. Croatia is not Russophobe, but more cautious due to Russian state using underhand tactics to get its way.

Today, December 7, members of the Yale delegation are currently at the IPCC briefing of its fourth report, especially the Synthesis Report released last month (Nov 16th) – a very climate policy-relevant assessment. Dr. Pachuri states that this report looks at the observed evidence of climate change, the causes and drivers of change, and an assessment of impacts, especially long term impacts, comparing action versus inaction.

Why the Best Offices Are Like Jails
By ADAM AURIEMMA
Cubicles, cells: more alike than you think.
Kristine Woolsey would like to make your office more like a jail. And she has a particular jail in mind.
An architect by training, then a professor at Arizona State University, and now a business strategy consultant, Woolsey studies the impact of the physical environment on human behavior. In her consulting work, she helps companies figure out how they can transform their workspaces in a way that will help them meet their goals, whatever those may be.
Because of her academic background, Woolsey taps unexpected research findings to inform her work with clientseverything from research on the organization of an Abu Dhabi farm community to the infrastructure of refugee camps.
Which brings us to the jail thing.
Numerous anthropological studies show that group sizethe number of individuals who live or work togetheris key to peaceful collaboration in all kinds of environments. The ideal group size for forming bonds of trust is around six to eight people, Woolsey said.
A gang of four can be easily dominated by one strong personality; any larger than eight, and theyll to need to elect a leader. But right in the middle, theres a sort of peer pressure in terms of expected social behavior that leads people to act in the common interest, she said.
Effective open-plan offices, such as the ones Google Inc. has designed in Zurich and Dublin, and the ones offered by NextSpace, a California-based company that rents workspaces to freelancers and small businesses, place employees in hubs of six to eight, with nearby common areas accessible to several groups, Woolsey said. Thus, rather than dividing up a giant workforce into acres of gray cubes, the office is instead comprised of small groups nested within larger ones.
Designers of the Falkenburg Road Jail in Tampa, Florida, had the same idea. That facility, completed in 2004, houses inmates in dormitories of four to eight beds each, with half-walls linking groups. Thats ideal, Woolsey saida small, personal group, but connected to a larger community.
Tim Gibson, a principal in the architecture firm DLR Group, helped design the jail. While hes careful to note that its design is as much a product of security and efficiency concerns as behavioral ones, he acknowledged that, in terms of behavior, an eight-man cell actually functions pretty well.
The jail, widely cited as a progressively-designed facility, has a low incidence of violent behavior, attributed in part to the small groups. Eight is also about the maximum size of a collaborative team of architects at DLR headquarters, according to Gibson; the theory seems to be hitting on something.
Jeremy Neuner, the CEO of NextSpace, said hes observed that workers naturally congregate in groups of six to eight. Recently at the companys Santa Cruz headquarters, as a sort of experiment, a 12-seat conference table was moved into an open area of the office. Sure enough, Neuner said, six to eight people gathered there to work.
Except when theyre up against a deadline, people are not looking for their own closed-in spaces, Neuner said.
As Woolsey sees it, the traditional open-plan office is no better at adapting to the way people work than the old cubicle-dotted office. Engineering effective group sizes is one way to approach the problem, but the key for any company is to tailor spaces to specific personalities and business objectives.
Human behavior is really hard to change, she said. So, my whole shtick is that if I can get halfway there in the facility design, why not?

DOVER �— It's been an uphill struggle all season long for the Spaulding High School boys soccer team.
It took a "downhill" turn on Wednesday to perhaps turn the Red Raiders' season around.
Spaulding scored four second-half goals, three by Logan Major, to come from behind and beat rival Dover on the road, 4-3, in wet Division I action.
Held scoreless through the first 52 minutes of the game, Spaulding (2-10) struck for four goals over the final 28 minutes to shock the Green Wave (2-8-3), who had built a 3-0 lead.
Freshman Tom Butler scored first for Spaulding in the 52nd minute, tapping the ball in during a mix up in front after a corner kick by Mitchell Cyr.
Then it was The Logan Major Show.
The senior forward netted three straight goals over the final 24 minutes of the game. He headed in his first in the 56th minute from Nate St. Cyr and then followed with two breakaway scores. The game-winner came in the 78th minute.
"Coach said at halftime, 'Seniors this is your last chance. You've got to put it together'" Major said. "After coach said that, I took it upon myself, being a captain, with the hard work of the rest of my guys, managed to put me in for three."
Last year on this same Bellamy Field, the Green Wave scored two goals in the final minute to beat Spaulding, 3-2.
"The first thing Andy (Allen) said to me was 'this means next year I'm going to be the one who comes form behind and wins the game,'" said Spaulding coach Dan Curran."They did it to us last year, we did it to them this year."
Curran felt the "downhill" edge worked to his team's advantage.
"On the bus ride over here, I said to my (assistant coach), we're going to be attacking this goal (near the parking lot) in the second half," Curran said. "Because every year we've played here, the team that's been attacking that goal in the second half, always seems to win. It's got this downhill slope toward the goal. That area (in front of the goal) is just disgusting right now. I said we've got to be going that way in the second half to have a chance."
Dover went up 2-0 in the first half going "downhill," scoring goals in the 4th and 36th minute. Aaron Esparza and Ryan Runola were the goal scorers with Greg Bell and Devon Chervious adding assists.
The Green Wave widened the gap to 3-0 in the 43rd minute when Bell followed Esparza's blast. Spaulding goalie Spencer Hoyt made a great diving save, but knocked the ball to Bell crashing from the left and he tucked it into the left corner.
"I think we got a little too relaxed," Dover's Allen said. "As the rain kept coming, this side of the field, you look in front of the box, you can't get footing. Credit to them, they took advantage of it. They got the ball down there in front of the net and the kid finished. I really feel like the weather helped them out as far as the sides of the field.
"I still feel like we outplayed them," Allen added. "We had more shots. We had more corner kicks. We had more opportunities. I guess you could say, literally, we got stuck in the mud today."
Hoyt kept the Red Raiders in the game with 13 saves, including four of the spectacular variety.
Previous to Major's game-winner, Dover attacked the Red Raider goal and Esparza's hard shot from atop the 18 was caught by a leaping Hoyt.
"I just thought I hope I can get this," Hoyt said. "I saw the ball come to be and try to get it deflected at least."
Nick Potter had four saves for the Green Wave.
"Logan is probably one of the top five hardest working players I've coached at Spaulding," Curran added. "There's not a better way for him to leave the Spaulding-Dover rivalry, then with a game like this. It couldn't happen to a better kid, or committed kid. He just loves the game of soccer."
Spaulding hosts Merrimack Friday and its schedule (four games to play) lends itself in its favor for making a run to make the tournament, which would likely require two more wins.
Dover plays at Bedford Friday.
Major, Spaulding come back to stun Dover

Acquitted of all charges, Mick holds a press conference on July 31, before escaping with Marianne:
February 12, 1967. Early in the evening, beneath the thatched roof of a country house called Redlands, a relaxing winter weekend is winding down. Keith Richards, ever the genial host, had invited some of his closest friends down from London for a mini getaway, which included a long, somewhat tranquil acid trip. The acid was courtesy of one of the weekend's guests of honor, a Californian (or Canadian, I've read different accounts) who went by the name David Schneiderman, but was appropriately knicknamed "The Acid King". Also in attendance were Mick and Marianne, high not just on acid (together for the first time), but on the excitement of their early romance; Robert Fraser, art dealer and great friend of the Stones, plus his Moroccan manservant Mohammed; antique dealer Christopher "Chrissie" Gibbs, another member of their exclusive circle; ever-present photographer and friend, Michael Cooper; friends George and Pattie Harrison, the shy Beatle and his pretty blonde wife; and Nicky Kramer, described as "a hippie from Chelsea" by Bill Wyman. Anita and Brian, who had tripped at Redlands several times before, were missing in action. According to Keith, Brian had started the usual violent fight and therefore they didn't turn up. Anita has said that they were planning on going, but then the Sunday night call from Keith came through announcing they'd been busted and to not bother. Maybe both.
By midnight on Saturday, February 11, all the guests had arrived. From Old Gods Almost Dead: "A fire was going in the great Tudor hearth, the guitars came out, joints were passed. In connection with his own recent obscenity bust, Fraser talked about his friend Stephen Ward, the society osteopath who had killed himself after being framed for pimping in the Profumo Scandal. Then they all went to bed and slept until noon, when the Acid King started making his rounds." Sunday was spent hanging around at the beach, with Keith wandering around in his Afghan coat and oversized shades, Michael Cooper snapping away. Keith describing his Sunday morning: "I woke up around 11:00 AM. Schneiderman was up and dressed when I awoke. Mohammed was in the kitchen. I went into the garden for an hour or so. I had no idea what the rest of the guests were doing indoors, but went back in because I heard there was talk of a beach party. Except for two, all the guests went in Schneiderman's minivan. Later on during the afternoon, everybody went on a minibus mystery tour around West Sussex." "We had a quasi-cultural expedition to the house of Edward James, the father of English surrealist art, at West Dean on the Downs," Christopher Gibbs explained, "In the evening we went back to the house and sat around talking, playing records, and watching TV. Everything was perfectly respectable." Everyone was quite tired and wanted only to relax, having had an enjoyable trip. "Mick was great to be around," Marianne recalled, of Mick on acid. "Very calm and cool, without his usual nervous energy." After Mohammed served dinner, George and Pattie left for their house in Surrey and Marianne went upstairs to have a bath. Pattie: "It was the first time that we'd been to the house at West Wittering and I can't remember why we were invited. It didn't seem to be a special party; it just seemed to be friends of Keith." Outside of the house, a waiting force of police officers saw George and Pattie drive off, and Keith maintains that it was not for nothing. "They were out there all day, waiting for George to leave. From then on, we were fair game."
Marianne: "My clothes were all covered with sand, dirt, twigs in my hair, the normal sort of wear and tear of being on a trip outside. It was such an intense trip that I was quite relieved when we started to come down. That's when I went and took my bath. I was the only one who hadn't brought a change of clothes and I dealt with it by wearing this beautiful fur rug. It was very large, six by nine feet or something. It would have covered a small room." (This revelation - of the rug's size - was interesting to me, because I always imagined from reading about the Redlands bust that she was wearing some tiny, barely-covering-the-bod type of rug). Marianne walked downstairs to the reverberating music of Dylan's recent masterpiece, Blonde On Blonde. Then someone noticed something most peculiar: a face peering in through one of the leaded windows. Probably some fan. Then there was a knock on the door. "I remember having this absurd idea of telling everyone to be still. 'If we don't make any noise, if we're all really quiet, they'll go away.' A typical Marianne response if there ever was one! Make yourself very small and it will disappear. This time, I'm afraid, it didn't work," Marianne wrote in her autobiography. Keith reluctantly opened the door and in stepped Chief Inspector Gordon Dinely, announcing that he had a warrant to search Redlands. "Vision of Johanna" was playing. Keith: "We were just gliding off from a twelve-hour trip. You know how that freaks people out when they walk in on you. The vibes were so funny for them. I told one of the women with them they'd brought to search the ladies, 'Would you mind stepping off that Moroccan cushion? Because you're ruining the tapestries.' We were playing it like that. They tried to get us to turn the record player off but we said, 'No. We won't turn it off but we'll turn it down.'" The nineteen cops began dividing the small party into groups to search them. Apparently, they were quite pleasant with the guests, especially Robert Fraser for whom they had utmost respect, no roughhousing or other such degradation. Of course, many of the guests were freaking: The Acid King didn't just have a little acid, he had tons of it, an entire suitcase in fact. If searched, it would equate to more than a hefty prison stint. When the cops came upon the suitcase and asked for the revelation of its contents, he told them that he had very delicate film inside and, if exposed, it would be destroyed forever. Somewhat amazingly, they believed him. They found a heroin tablet on Fraser (not that they would know it was heroin), and thus confiscated it for lab testing, apologizing for the trouble. They also found some ampethamine pills in the pocket of Mick's dashing green coat, which had been long since forgotten, as Marianne had purchased them when she and Mick were in San Remo, Italy for the San Remo Song Festival. The pills were hers, but Mick, ever the gallant Leo, said that yes, they were his, bought in Italy for his long hours, and that his physician had given him the verbal "OK" over the phone to use them. These too were taken with the police. Other than that, they took a lot of incense and left all the hard drugs! Three lady cops brought the rug-clad Marianne upstairs to search her, where she jokingly screamed to Mick that they were going to rape her. Supposedly when Marianne was downstairs in front of the whole crew, she let her fur rug fall off one shoulder so that her breasts were exposed. Clearly this act of pure debauchery and scandal delighted the police, who in published reports flashed on the front pages and later brought up in trial frequently wrote of this "scantily clad", "nude", "nymphomaniac" girl-woman. After collecting their various evidence, the cops informed Keith that if the tests came back and proved these tablets, pills, ashes, etc were in fact illegal drugs, he would be charged with a violation of 1964's Dangerous Drug Act for allowing these to be consumed on his property. And with that, they left.
One may wonder how this all happened. How the police obtained a warrant, and why they busted Redlands that fateful night, when many such weekends had happened there before and since. Why did the "establishment" so strongly have it out for the Stones?
Well, the powers that be had felt threatened by the Rolling Stones for quite some time. Their very appearance filled parents and law-makers with a feeling of profound dread, that the children of Britain would somehow instantly be corrupted by boys who sang about sex, dressed in outlandish, beautiful clothes, and who openly expressed their opinions. Marianne, too, would often go on TV spouting off about the wonders of LSD, while Mick quietly fumed ("I was real trouble like that," she says). Ironically, a certain newspaper, the gossip-filled, self-serving publication the News Of The World, themselves quite corrupt and low brow, was eager to get any dirt on the Stones that they could. So, imagine their delight when two News Of The World reporters stumbled across Brian Jones at a bar one night in mid 1966. Brian at that time was still going round telling people that he was the "leader" of the Stones. The reporters began to chat Brian up, and somehow the topic turned to the use of acid. "Yeah, I don't really use it too much anymore," Brian told them, but took out a piece of hash and invited them to his place for a smoke. They chatted a while longer until the reporters got up to leave, declining Brian's most generous offer. "What was your name again, sir?" they asked Brian, delighted they'd got such savory quotes from the unassuming Stone. "Mick Jagger," he told them with a smug smile, and he and his hangers-on laughed about that the rest of the night.
The Stones, Mick in particular, were then shocked to read an article in the News Of The World published on February 5, 1967 (one week before the bust). The article was some five-part expose about pop stars and drugs. The paper claimed that Mick had admitted to having taken LSD at the home of one of the members of The Moody Blues. The paper quoted "Mick" as saying, "I don't go much on LSD now the cats [fans] have taken it up. It'll just get a dirty name. I remember the first time I took it. It was on our tour with Bo Diddley and Little Richard..." Marianne, who with Mick poured over the article in bed that morning, laughed and told him that, of course, it was Brian, that they'd confused Mick with Brian. Mick, however, decided to take legal action and sue the News Of The World for libel (and meanwhile began planning a real acid trip that weekend at Redlands) - what Robert Fraser called "The Oscar Wilde Mistake". The law suit jeopardized the paper's credibility (which I wouldn't imagine was great anyhow), and after that, they really had it in for them. They were going to bring the Stones down.
The cops said that they obtained a warrant to search Redlands due to an anonymous tip-off (which was the News Of The World). But how exactly did they know about the weekend plans? Well, one thing is for sure: after the bust went down, David Schneiderman mysteriously disappeared, never to be heard from again. And at this point, pretty much everyone involved contends that he was hired by the paper explicitly for this purpose. Though it was never proven, there doesn't seem to be any other option.
When Mick and Keith (and Robert Fraser) arrived at Chichester Magistrates Court on May 10, 1967, the frenzy began - the crowds, the outcries, and of course, those gorgeous clothes! Keith transformed into a debonair outlaw hero during the months of the trial and Mick perfected his feminine, impeccably tailored cool, both clad in beautiful, expensive suits. The press reported all of their ensembles with gushing prose. They were released on bail, set at £100 each. That same night, Brian Jones' flat was raided by the cops and drugs, inevitably, were discovered. What were the odds?
On June 27 and June 28, Mick, Robert, and Keith's trials began. It only took a day (June 29) for the verdict to be handed down: GUILTY (an uproar from fans and screaming girls). Mick was sentenced to three months in prison due to the pep pills in his coat jacket, and Keith to an entire year in prison, Wormwood Scrubs, for allowing cannabis to be smoked on his property. They were both taken to their respective prisons and locked up (Jagger and Robert Fraser were both sent to Lewes prison, after they had a lavish meal). Marianne went to visit Mick in jail, and when he cried, she told him to get it together and channel the experience into a song, although she admits that she was almost cruelly dismissive of his emotional state. Keith Moon and his girlfriend wore "Free Keith" tee shirts, and the Who recorded two Stones songs, "The Last Time" and "Under My Thumb" in support. Mick and Keith were freed on bail, and only spent one night in jail, although it was enough for Mick to get inspiration for the next Stones single, a thank-you to fans called "We Love You" (see previous post for shots of the awesome video that was filmed along with the single). Finally, on July 31, the court of appeals overturned the verdict against Mick and Keith and the storm was over. Mick held a press conference right afterwards to hungry press reporters, and then he and Marianne escaped via heliocopter for a much needed holiday. Marianne Faithfull's name was disguised in the press and court proceedings as "Miss X" in an attempt to keep her out of it (allegedly, Mick told her that it could ruin her career, and of course he was right). But the guise wasn't all that successful - everyone knew (or could at least probably surmise) that it was her, and her once-innocent image was irreparably destroyed.
The funny thing about the whole Redlands bust is that its intent to bring down the Stones, and to restore some sort of moral order to England by doing so, totally backfired. No doubt there was damage done, and the ordeal took its toll on some (notably Marianne and Robert Fraser), but Mick and Keith came out of it stronger than ever. They were heroes. A breakthrough occurred when respected Times writer William Rees-Mogg published an editorial on July 1 entitled "Who Breaks A Butterfly On A Wheel?", which was a critical response to the sentences given to Mick and Keith on June 29. It most likely played a pivotal role in their cases being overturned. Here was someone from "the establishment" saying things like, "There must remain a suspicion in this case that Mr. Jagger received a more severe sentence than would have been thought proper for any purely anonymous young man."
The trial also was huge PR. The hype, outrage, excitement and uncertainty surrounding the case was big news; you know that old showbiz saying. It was also a critical bonding experience for Mick and Keith, one that Brian wasn't a part of despite his own busts. This camaraderie fueled their songwriting partnership and further alienated an ever-disintegrating Brian. A downside of the trial was that the new Stones album, Their Satanic Majesties Request, released late in 1967, some say as an answer to the Beatles' triumphant Sgt. Pepper's, was hastily put together and did not receive the acclaim everyone had hoped. But a little time off was in store, and afterwards the Rolling Stones would emerge with their greatest music. The Redlands bust is a huge part of the Stones' (and indeed rock n' roll) mythology. It cemented their outlaw, bad-ass appeal and made it even more marketable than before. The establishment may have thought this was the end, but little did they know it was only the beginning.

D Style Fashion
We design fashionable cloth that show German patriotism and are are chic at the same time. It will be mainly womens cloth ranging from sporty T-Shirts to fashionable evening Tops and dresses. In all clothes you will see some kind of patriotism for Germany from big German flags to small hints in the form of crystals. Now we need a Logo that represents our idea. From the Logo you should directly see that it is about fashion, representing Germany and fashionable female clothing.
One challenge is to define the colour scheme. The German national colours (black, red, gold) don't really represent something stylish, but if we experimented with other colours you couldn't see the German touch any more. So I am very cusious to see your ideas.
- Stylish, chic, German
- simple, but elegant
- Logo will be printed very small, so it must be able to be recognised even then
- http://www.dstylefashion.com should be under or part of the Logo
- vector format - Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator
- old fashion German
- too many colours
- bright colours

"KOB Eyewitness News 4 has obtained surveillance pictures of a State Police officer having sex with a woman on the hood of a car in broad daylight. State Police aren't saying anything about the photos, but KOB Eyewitness News 4 is pressing for answers. Two weeks ago KOB reported a story about an officer caught on camera having sex while in full uniform, an act shown on security camera at the Santa Fe Canyon Ranch. KOB has blurred out the woman's image, but you can see it's during daylight hours and the officer is still wearing his utility belt. The Santa Fe Sheriff's office released the pictures to KOB after we filed a public records request. They say they also gave them to State Police over a week ago. We got reaction from people who saw the photos. "It's an inappropriate use of time," said Cate Campbell of Albuquerque. "Inappropriate use of our tax money, I mean we pay these guys," added Jacob Powers. Albert Loma said if charged and found guilty, the officer should be fired. "With that kind of judgment you don't want him carrying a weapon," said Loma. "I think it's an embarrassment to the state patrol, they should be ashamed."" - KOB

We had heard rumors of this place for some time and when Steve Dolinsky reported that "Chicago q is the city's first "elegant" BBQ palace" we knew the time had come. We were delighted to hear that Lee Ann Whippen of BBQ Pitmasters fame was the Chef and Partner, we knew we had yet another special BBQ place in Chicago. Lee Ann has moved to Chicago to make this place something special and that speaks to the mix of authentic competition and Virginia BBQ. Combine that with an atmosphere that you can only find in the Chicago Gold Coast, they did a fantastic job. The decor is like a chic Southern Plantation meets modern casual restaurant space. It is wide open with a cool bar, great dining area and a couple of private rooms including flat screens for watching sports. They also do carry out which they said is a huge part of their business.
Staff was really knowledgeable and this was an important part of the experience. When we mentioned that we owned a BBQ store we were treated to visits from the General Manager as well as Lee Ann herself! Lee Ann was really friendly, shared some of her experience of Chicago and was happy to spend the time and energy needed to make the place a success. Our waiter was awesome too, he was very attentive and even got us a kitchen tour, complete with a look at the smoker! This place is the real deal, a gorgeous kitchen complete with a smoker that is gas fired, but real smoking wood stacked right next to it.
We had to try the Kobe beef brisket and went for the Competition Spare Ribs as well as baked beans, fries and mac and cheese for the sides. BBQ is served with the sauce on the side, one is a mild sauce and the other has a little spice to it. The Kobe Beef Brisket was a little dry for my tastes, but very tasty and had a great smoke flavor. The bark on the outside exposed the Lee Ann Whippen Family signature rub "Pig Powder", which tells me that it was cooked right but needed sauce to make it delicious. The Competition style Spare's were so damn moist and pink that they pulled right off the bone. They had a great glaze to them which was tasty and perfectly complimented the rub. When we took our kitchen tour we noticed that each rack is wrapped in foil, just like most do in competition and pulled out of the smoker just before serving to you.
The sides is where you could taste all the love. We have heard that their onion rings are not to be missed, sorry we missed them. The Mac and Cheese was special, not
your run of the mill side dish, and we loved it. Overall, it was great to have something this authentic and special in Chicago. It is a great atmosphere and the prices are reasonable based on the neighborhood and the level of service you receive. They have a balance of southern hospitality and fine dining. You could go there to watch a game in the bar, carry out, have a nice dining experience with friends or enjoy a large party in one of their signature private rooms. Exciting to see Modern BBQ hit Chicago, and to have a real BBQ Pitmaster and a high standard of service complete the experience.
You can book a reservation right from their site, I would recommend one as you never know in Chicago. They are kid friendly, casual dining and have more on the menu than just BBQ (The qBurger sounds out of this world).

A Congressman introduced federal legislation Friday that would make it illegal for employers or schools to demand Facebook passwords from employees, students or applicants.
The bill, called Social Networking Online Protection Act, or SNOPA, was introduced by Rep. Eliot Engel, D-N.Y. and can require a potential or current employee, and would make it a crime to require potential or current employees or students to divulge personal online information as part of the hiring, enrollment or discipline process.
"We must draw the line somewhere and define what is private," Engel said in a statement. "No one would feel comfortable going to a public place and giving out their username and passwords to total strangers. They should not be required to do so at work, at school, or while trying to obtain work or an education."
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
The legislation would:
Prohibit current or potential employers from requiring a username, password or other access to online content. It does not permit employers to demand such access to discipline, discriminate or deny employment to individuals, nor punish them for refusing to volunteer the information.Apply the same restrictions to colleges and universities, and K-12 schools as well.

May 6, 2009
For beef lovers, few aromas can rival the enticing lure of a flavorful, tender steak expertly grilled. There will be plenty of temptation to go around as the Lowndes County Cattlemen''s Association prepares nearly 3,000 ribeye steaks May 8-9 on grills set up at the Kroger parking lot on Highway 45 North.
The annual steak dinner sale is a popular stop for Columbians on the way home after a day at the office or the retail stores -- a time-saving and savory protein- and nutrient-rich meal ready to go.
"From 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. May 8-9, folks can stop by the Cattlemen''s Association trailer and get a wonderful steak dinner to carry out, with a 10-ounce ribeye steak, a baked potato and salad," said member Nick Clark, of Columbus.
Large pre-orders may be placed prior to May 8 by contacting the Lowndes County Mississippi State University Extension office at 662-328-2111.
Grilling for education
The annual event is the group''s only fundraiser. In the past 11 years, the annual sale has resulted in more than $50,000 in college scholarships for Lowndes County youth.
"We give out several thousand dollars a year," Clark said. "In the past, we really and truly have done our best not to turn down any applicant."
Any high school senior planning to attend college in the fall may apply for a scholarship. Applications are available at the Mississippi State University Extension office at 512 Third Ave. N. Aspiring applicants can find out more by contacting the office at 662-328-2111.
Skill at the grill
Cattlemen members are some of the most experienced and savvy chefs in the area.
"As a matter of fact, the last time we entered the steak-cooking contest in Jackson sponsored by the state association, we were grand champion," noted Clark. "Of course," he added with a laugh, "that may have been because my wife went down and did the presentation. Presentation is real important."
Members get plenty of practice at the grill. Steaks, rich in protein, iron and zinc, are usually on the menu whenever the group meets.
"We have about 120 members," said President Doug Yelverton. "The average beef spread of our members is about 15-20 head to around 300."
Anyone who supports the beef industry and its producers is welcome to join the association. There are no local dues, although all members are required to belong to the Mississippi Cattlemen''s Association, with dues of about $40 per year.
"We have a lot of affiliate members like bankers and retail people who don''t have cattle," explained Clark. "For your $40, you get a very informative magazine and help a great industry in the state of Mississippi.
"We hope everybody will come out and support the association''s sale and fundraiser. You''ll have a nutritious protein-enriched meal for a nominal fee, and your money will be well-spent. You''ll be well-fed and somebody will get well-educated."
The following recipes are provided by the Mississippi Cattlemen''s Association.

1 pound boneless beef top sirloin steak, cut 1 inch thick
