Recall doubt scares off voters / ABSENTEES: Early balloting dropped immediately after ruling
A geyser of voter participation in the Oct. 7 recall election -- nearly 500,000 absentee ballots have already been cast -- has slowed to a dribble since Monday's federal appellate court ruling postponing the election until March.
Elections officials around the state say there has been a dramatic drop in absentee balloting and voter registrations.
The numbers had been about what elections officials see for a regular statewide election for governor -- a level they consider extraordinary in light of the strange, off-year timing of the recall election.
"I think people think the election has been called off, and it really hasn't," said Madelyn De Justo of the Marin County registrar of voters office. "It's unbelievable, the falloff."
A tally by the California secretary of state shows that as of late Thursday afternoon 498,064 absentee ballots had been cast -- delivered by mail or by those walking into county offices to vote absentee on the spot.
The volume of ballots already cast has prompted some to assert that the federal court's ruling, if it's upheld, will disenfranchise more voters than the punch-card technology that prompted judges to postpone the election.
Plaintiffs in the lawsuit filed to stop the election say the punch-card ballots will cause a miscount in the six California counties still using the technology, leading to the possible disenfranchisement of an estimated 40,000 voters.
But in those six counties -- Santa Clara, Solano, Sacramento, Mendocino, Los Angeles and San Diego -- 165,000 voters already have cast absentee ballots,
elections officials said.
"The people who have voted and sent in their ballots have rights," said Phil Paule, spokesman for Rescue California, the lead recall committee. "What's your basis for throwing those votes away?"
In fact, no one is certain what might happen to the absentee ballots already cast by the time a final ruling is made on the election date.
"We don't know. That's pending litigation," said Shirley Washington, spokeswoman for the secretary of state.
The growing anxiety among elections officials is that voters have misinterpreted the federal court ruling and don't realize the election hasn't formally been postponed or that another legal ruling may reinstate the Oct. 7 date.
"There is voter confusion, without a doubt," said Alma Rosas, spokeswoman for the Santa Clara County registrar of voters. "The election is still on."
In Santa Clara County, for example, about 100 people a day were going into the elections office in San Jose, before the court ruling, to cast absentee ballots on the spot. On Wednesday, it was 43, Rosas said.
In Marin, about 5,000 absentee ballots were arriving in the mail every day. After the court's ruling on Monday, it dropped to 1,500, and the number of requests by voters for absentee ballots has gone down by half.
"The court, in effect, has stopped the participation rate, which is exactly what they were trying not to do," Paule said. "It's a terrible irony."
Throughout the Bay Area and the state, officials reported sharp declines in voter registration and absentee balloting since Monday's ruling.
In San Diego County, the number of voters going to the elections office to cast an absentee vote went down by half, said Registrar of Voters Sally McPherson.
In Sacramento County, an average of 100 people per day were going into the elections office to cast an absentee ballot -- on Wednesday, 12 went in.
In Mendocino County, 350 absentee applications were being processed a day --
that was down to 60 on Wednesday.
"I think people just don't know what to do," said Mendocino County elections chief Marsha Wharff. "Right now, they're not sure if they should hold onto the ballot, mail it in. They're probably waiting to see."
Under instructions from Secretary of State Kevin Shelley, local elections officials are proceeding as though the election still is scheduled for Oct. 7 - - issuing absentee ballots, accepting complete ballots and pushing for voter registration by the election deadline of Sept. 22.
And they're fending off inquiries from voters who want to know if their absentee ballot will be invalidated or if they can get their ballot back.
"We can't stop our preparations," said Elaine Ginnold, assistant registrar of voters in Alameda County.
"This thing is continuing," said De Justo. "It really hasn't been called off and until the final decision, voters need to keep requesting absentees, filing absentees and registering."
The uncertainty of the election is particularly aggravating for elections officials who have worked for years to combat declining voter participation.
"All the California counties had a really short time period to plan for all this, and I think all the counties did a fantastic job of getting ready. To have this thrown into the middle -- it's a little bit frustrating," said McPherson.
Officials also are worried that the dwindling voter interest could suddenly become an avalanche again, if the Oct. 7 election date is reinstated.
"There would be a huge increase, right at the last minute," said Ginnold. "I really don't know what to expect. This is so strange, this whole election."
The uncertainty extends to who might be most harmed should the absentees be invalidated by changing the election date.
Absentee ballots used to tilt heavily toward older, more conservative, Republican voters.
But a series of changes to the law has made it easier for people to vote absentee and the number of those doing so has increased substantially.
In some counties, more than 40 percent of the votes are cast by absentees. The political result is that absentees tend to reflect the general voting population.
"As opposed to an ideological thing, it's become a convenience thing," said veteran political consultant Ed McGovern. "It's just convenient for everybody."
The absentee votes are targeted by most campaigns, and the ballots tend to go to the candidate with the most effective effort at wooing those voters.
"You're not a very smart campaign if you ignore those people," said McGovern.

So my birthday is next Tuesday so in honor of my arriving fifty-three years ago, I am having a birthday bash with free ebooks in my EJ Hunter series.
When I was in elementary school, my birthday was about two weeks before school started. We would pack up a lunch, drive to the mountains, eat, and dabble our toes in a cool stream. The stream was hard to find except for locals. The reason we went there was because it had the most delicious rainbow trout I had ever tasted. We would take our sweaters because it was cool up there. A day in the sun near water was heavenly.
Nowadays the children are in school a week before my birthday. It is strange to feel the heat on my skin and NOT hear the yells of children as they run and play in the apartment complex.
So in honor of surviving a chronic illness, the Navy, and various other life changes, here are the freebies:
She Called It, Wolf (Free August 16,17) Novel
EJ Hunter comes home from Afghanistan when her unit is slaughtered by a man in cammies with an M16. They were sitting ducks. In a rage, she changes into a wolf and rips his throat out. The Army decides to give EJ an honorable discharge and send her home.
At home in Felony Flats, Nevada, her uncle, a Vietnam War Vet, dies leaving her a small piece of land, a silver bullet trailer, and a gold mine. She meets Sheriff Adam, who is also the alpha of the were-wolf pack.
There is a government researcher who is researching were-wolf DNA in hopes of making super soldiers, kidnapped children, and a were-cat. Also, EJ discovers that she is different from the pack. She can shift into other forms besides the wolf.
The story has elements of the West, paranormal, and mystery.
Billy the Kid (Free August 16, 17) Short Story
Betsy was the were-wolf pack's legal representation. Her life was pretty boring and man-free until Billy trotted into her life. He was a shifter and he was ready to join the pack. There is only one problem Billy is a goat.
EJ Hunter and her mate Adam help Billy gain Betsy's trust and when she is kidnapped, Billy is there to be her hero.
Urban Werewolf (Free August 16, 17) Short story
John, a mechanic, meets Tina when she arrives at the shop to fix the copier machine in the office. For the first time in years, John is fascinated with this woman. There is something different about her that appeals to his werewolf heart. But Tina has secrets and when her son is kidnapped, John calls on the pack to rescue her son.

The Floris Kappeyne Trio was set up in 2015 by the pianist. In the past two years, the trio consisting of separate Prinses Christina Concours winners (2012) has made audiences smile with their witty arrangements of old jazz standards. During the last year, the trio has worked on achieving an authentic conception by combining the classic sound of the McCoy Tyner trio from the sixties with Senegalese sabar rhythms and abstract ideas from modern classical music. The result will be presented on their debut-album consisting solely of original compositions, which will be released in May 2017 on Challenge Records International.

It's clear what the vote says. What the voters were thinking, I can't tell. Usually one would assume they were thinking the same thing they voted. At least, when I voted, I did. If we have reasons to believe this is not so, I think the vote should be invalidated. Playing with a flawed vote is very dangerous bussiness. > Ironically, Bdale *is* warping the results of the vote and applying an editorial voice to the interpretation of the results. I say "ironically" because Bdale's actions go far beyond anything Manoj did with regard to imposing his desires or thoughts on the construction or result of a vote. Amusingly, those who called for Manoj's head have now fallen quite silent. Agreed. Then again, even if Manoj was rightfully appliing super-majority requirements (which I think he was), it has become clear that, in general, such requirements are not politicaly sustainable. And in practice they don't exist anymore, anyway. I think this would be a good time to propose that they are removed from the Constitution. > There are some things that are clear to me: > > * I have a very high level of trust in Bdale, even when he starts doing peculiar things. I don't know him that well, so I can only judge him by his recent actions, which are quite questionable. I acknowledge that it may be unfair that I can't also recognize his merits, but this is how it is. OTOH, writing in a harsh tone is something that sometimes happens to me when I find something outrageous. Then again, at least I'm capable of rectifiing, which not everyone in this thread is. > * We should not delay Lenny for further political discussion because people's operations depend on our release. I tend to agree with this, but I don't think this is the matter at hand. My concerns are: - Some maintainers are simply refusing to fix DFSG violations that would otherwise NOT delay Lenny, as a consequence of the RT's rather low requirements for appliing a "lenny-ignore" tag. A good example of that is #459705, in which the maintainer simply said "I'd rather not remove this file". I think this creates a VERY dangerous precedent, which is precisely what I'm trying to stop. Yeah, it is really. It's not like one day I woke up and thought "hey, it would be cool if we could delay Lenny". - Even if there's a general perception that everyone agrees not to delay Lenny at all costs, this should definitely be voted on and sanctioned. Not doing so creates a very bad precedent. > * Discussion of these issues in the shadow of Lenny warps people's minds and makes sane discourse impossible. Spot on. And point taken. > * We have already made several such releases in the past and do not have a soberly constructed framework for solving the problem permanently. What is wrong with the framework we've used for Sarge and Etch? > With that in mind, I am inclined to go along with Bdale's "release Lenny by all means possible" reading of 2008/003. > However, if anyone views this as a victory then they are smoking extremely powerful crack.

I think the very survival of our organization depends on us coming to a well defined > solution by the next release. If we're going to go that route, at the very least I think the project should issue a position statement explaining something like: - We just screwed up. Sorry about that. - It's too late in the Lenny release process to do something about this without causing unacceptable delays. We will release Lenny ASAP out of responsibility. - We will try to find a solution. Would you be likely to support such thing? > So I'm sorry Robert, your heart is absolutely in the right place but I agree that we should release Lenny. You say you're sorry? You almost read my mind! But I don't agree that doing nothing is going to solve our problem. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us.

We honored the best of the best bus and MAX operators at the Operator of the Year ceremony in southeast Portland.
Celina K., Doug T. and Loyce R. were chosen from among the recipients of quarterly and monthly excellence awards handed out over the past year. This meant that each candidate had maintained an outstanding driving record, high levels of customer service, good attendance and the support of their peers.
Bus Operator of the Year
Celina K. began her career at TriMet in 2013. She's now a lead operator, and she recently earned her fourth superior performance award (drivers receive these each time they drive for 1,960 hours without any preventable accidents, warnings, reprimands or suspensions). Celina's riders have commended her for excellent service, professional attitude, kindness and her willingness to go out of her way to be helpful.
"I love people and I love driving," said Celina. "I like that every day is different from the next, even if I am on the same route. There is always a new obstacle so it prompts you to stay alert for the unexpected."
Celina lives in Gresham, and in her free time she enjoys fishing and accompanying her daughter to cheer competitions.
MAX Operator of the Year
Doug T. started driving TriMet buses 19 years ago. In 2001, he transferred to MAX. Among the accolades he's received throughout his career are an impressive 27 Safe Driving awards from the National Safety Council, earned over many years with zero preventable accidents. He's also received over a dozen Superior Performance awards and numerous commendations from the public.
Doug enjoys driving because of the riders — especially the kids who wave to him and signal to blow the horn. "I had a five-year-old on my Red Line train dressed as a rail conductor," he recalled. "When we got to the airport I gave him a tour of my cab and let him honk the horn and ring the bell. The look on his face was priceless!"
When not at work, Doug likes golfing, going on walks, traveling the world and spending time with his wife, Luanne.
Mini-Run Operator of the Year
Mini-run, or part-time, operator Loyce R. began driving for TriMet five years ago. She has earned three Safe Driving Awards during her time behind the wheel (and she's on her way to a fourth). She credits her career choice to her father-in-law, also a bus operator, who didn't sugar-coat the work. According to Loyce, "He took me for a ride-along on the 72 line and asked, 'Do you really want to do this?'"
Loyce admits that getting used to operating the bus was daunting, but now finds driving relaxing. She especially likes returning to lines she has previously driven and having passengers say they are glad she is back.
Loyce lives in Aloha, and loves golfing, fishing and game days with the family.
Congratulations to our 2017 Operators of the Year!

Writing Music: Cannon in D Minor17:51
I'm racing towards the end of Camp NaNoWriMo at the moment, and while I've been slogging my way through an almost complete rewrite of my superhero/fairytale novel, Snow, I've been listening to a lot of music to help motivate and inspire me, especially on those late nights when the daily word goal hasn't been met yet. Which means that I've also been trying a whole bunch of new music in an attempt to keep my playlist fresh and my writing sessions fun. One musician I've been especially taken with is Thomas Bergerson from Two Steps from Hell. A lot of writers have recommended his music to me in the past, and for a very good reason. Bergerson's music is very much like a movie soundtrack, with sweeping themes, tangible emotions, and a good beat that makes your fingers want to fly across the keys. (Tell me again why it took me so long to try his music?)
One piece I've particularly enjoyed listening to recently is his song, Cannon in D Minor. If you're looking for a piece to inspire epic battle scenes, look no further than this. Cannon in D Minor begins with a strong theme, with a feel of tension about it like something is about to go down, before quickly building to an epic climax, complete with pounding beat and dramatic choral backing. It inspires images of a climactic battle finale between the forces of good and evil. To me, it also has shades of Pirates of the Caribbean in its tune, which in turn makes me think that this would be a good piece to listen to while writing a sea battle.
What music is fuelling your writing sessions at the moment? Are you a fan of Two Steps from Hell?What is the best piece of battle music you've found? What music should I try next? Suggest some new musicians and songs to me!

DUDE. o.o I really have to explore Two Steps From Hell more often. What I've heard is pretty awesome.ReplyDeleteReplies
They have some really epic music. If you need some really awesome music to write to, or even just to listen to, you definitely have to try some more of theirs.Delete
Oooh! This is pretty dramatic and awesome. I like it a lot. Thanks for sharing with us!ReplyDeleteReplies
It's the perfect battle scene music, isn't it? I love dramatic pieces like these. Thanks for stopping by!Delete

Hazel Village - Zoe Rabbit
Zoe is converting part of the stream bank into a rock garden. It is slimy work, she says, but somebody's got to do it. Possibly. Yesterday she saw two beautiful orange newts.
She is made of brown organic cotton fleece, with a natural organic fleece face and tail. Her ears are lined with pink and white striped cotton. She measures 16" from ear to toe. She is stuffed with washable polyfill. Her eyes and nose are hand-stitched with cotton embroidery floss.
Zoe comes wearing an extra-special fancy outfit - her white cotton dress has a brocade ribbon detail and a velcro closure in back. Her flower crown is made of pink, white, and green ribbon. Zoe's outfit is removable so she can share and trade clothes with all the Hazel Village animals.
We recommend spot cleaning, or hand wash cool and air dry.
Zoe will travel to you in a reusable cotton bag, perfumed with a lavender and mint sachet. She is excited to contemplate your houseplants and household wildlife.
Shipping - overnight in Australia, 3 days to NZ & 5 days international.

"Today in Puerto Rico, food is changing," says Giovanna Huyke of "Giovanna's Kitchen," a daily TV spot broadcast in Puerto Rico.
Pasta is overtaking rice in popularity; olive oil is taking the place of butter and lard. Rum, cilantro, oregano, peppers and garlic are all important ingredients in Puerto Rican cooking.

The Diversity Toolkit provides continuously available access to tools needed for success in diverse organizations. An annual subscription to The Diversity Toolkit website provides access to two content areas:
* The Diversity and Inclusion Toolkit, for anybody who is interested in learning and practicing how to thrive in an increasingly diverse workforce
* The Diversity Manager's Toolkit, specifically for managers and leaders who are trying to leverage the benefits that diversity brings to the workforce
Resources are intended to enable learners to successfully build, manage, and thrive in diverse organizations and work groups. Because many issues dealing with human behavior are diversity issues, there are many options to consider for a specific work-related scenario. Not all options may be present in this toolkit, and an individual approach should always be considered. The tools in this toolkit are not meant to be a prescription for all cultures, diversity programs, or managers; nor meant to replace any existing organizational policies and procedures. However, this toolkit presents a coherent starting point for framing and understanding many diversity and inclusion issues, such as troubleshoot management issues that might not be included in policies and procedures.
Topics Include:
* Addressing unwelcome behavior
* Communicating across generations
* Organizational change
* Recruitment and retention
* Religion in the workplace
* Creating inclusive work teams
* Rewarding and acknowledging people
* Resolving conflict
* Generating dialogue
* Giving feedback across cultures
* Easy to deliver training and education modules

In mid September of 2014 my fiancé David and I found out I was pregnant. I always wanted to be a mother but I wasn't expecting it to all happen so quick. I had just started my first year of post secondary to become a CYW, and moved away from home. I was excited to hear that I was going to be a mom but I knew it wouldn't be easy. I knew that once word got out to old peers and my church family that the rumours would spread quickly and so would the judging. I decided to clean up my instagram account and remove people I thought would not understand or support us. I posted a picture announcing to my friends that we were expecting a baby boy. To my surprise the photo was leaked from my blocked account. Im not sure why this was such a surprise to me, I guess you really cant trust people.. People began to try and follow me to see what was going on inside my account. It started to get under my skin so I thought I better figure out why it was bothering me so much. I've seen the way people speak about women who become mothers at a young age. I knew I would get looks and people would say things behind my back. I struggled with this for a while because I didn't want people to think I would be a bad mom based off of my age. I decided it wasn't worth my time. I knew I was going to be a good mom and give my son my absolute best.
In the beginning of May 2015 our lives had changed forever. Our beautiful, strong, and sweet boy was born. I'll never forget the first day with our baby and how unbelievably emotional it was. My heart had never felt so much love before. That night our nurse told us that Christian had an infection in his lungs and had to be moved to the NICU. I will never forget how helpless and heartbroken I felt in that moment. All I wanted was for him to be in my arms and healthy. I remember sitting in the NICU sobbing for hours before being sent back to my room. I'll never forget how I felt walking back to my room at 4am without my baby. David and I spent days in the hospital being tossed from room to room while Christian was on an antibiotic. Several days later the nurses said we were aloud to go home while they watched Christian, but there was no way we were leaving him behind. Ill never forget the day they sent us home.. Mothers Day! That was the best first Mothers Day present I could have asked for.
I can truly say I am beyond blessed to have David in my life. He has given me the best gifts of all: family and true love. I can't think of any other guy our age who would be willing to drop everything and start a family. Every waking second he has been there to support Christian and I in all ways imaginable. I always knew I loved him so much but I learned to love him in more ways when I saw him with our son. He is such an amazing dad! I love watching him talk to Christian in goofy voices and watching them both laugh.

I'm not sure what to say. I had no idea so many people were addicted to tramadol but seeing hundreds of posts on the subject I'm obviously not alone. This "non-addictive drug" yea right when I first started taking them like so many others all I took was half a pill 25 mgs and it made my whole day livable now three years later I'm taking 3 to 4 50 mgs every few hours. in the last month I went thru more than 400. Plus taking vicoden/norco or whatever I can get ahold of. Yes I'm in a bad way I went to the doc and got efexor am now on highest dose and it's not helping my doc wants me on Prozac and that can not he taken with the tramadol at least not at the levels I'm Taking. I can't stop taking them without feeling like I'm going to die I have a full time job and three small children I can't function without them )-; I am trying to find alternatives to get off of these. I did a sleep study a week ago to see if that's a factor btw I have to suggest any kind of study or test to any doctor every doctor I have seen. They basically treat me like an idiot and say its depression and stress and get that exercise into your life. I believe I have fibromyalgia/cfs I'm sorry this is so long. All I ever wanted was to feel good and be able to play with my children. There's got to be a way to get thru this and still function. Please I need help.
I've never done this before I hope I put this in the right area.

It's almost clip for return off.
Making his way into the cockpit, he sits in the place and clinks circa next to the device in fascia of him. He checks his display and guidance device, pointing and clicking to engender confident they're engaged right. He later enters his finish into the direction bar...and he's off. Soaring through the endless abyss, other certain as the internet, he wonders wherever he will onshore present. Are you geared up for his landing?
If not, you can launch by creating a runway. On the web, this is maximum prevalently referred to as a "landing page". A landing leaf is a "specific web page that a caller at long last reaches after clicking a correlation or advertizement." (1) They are designed in peculiar ways to aid companies in achieving a pre-determined mental object.Post ads:

Preparing the Runway
In decree to create structure your landing page, is it major to class the following:
What is your goal? - Are you hard to get a consumer to buy your product, or are you attempting to get a customer's interaction subject matter for more outreach?Post ads:

Where is your buyer future from? - It is considerable to contest your referring average. As you can imagine, somebody clicking in from an ad is expecting to see an in good taste folio that sums up everything near is to know in the order of that expert service or resource. While being upcoming from an natural look into will in all likelihood predict to see a folio next to more trait smug that educates as an alternative of sells.
What is your uncomparable commerce point? (USP) - Be organized to give an account your buyer what is privileged astir you and your joint venture/product/service. This will give a hand to encourage them into performing arts the coveted endeavour.
Lighting up the Runway
A landing leaf should be univocal. A oversimplified design concerted beside visuals should kit out easy-to-follow directions that guides the eye decussate the page and shows what is unsurprising of the client upon achievement. Here are both helpful tips when scheming layout:
- Eye-tracking studies make clear that peak people's persuasion pursue an "F" molded shape when linguistic process web ecstatic. So brand confident your joyful moves in this bearing. (2)
- Remove any steering links or buttons from the page, together with any direction gymnastic apparatus you may have by default on both leaf of your website. The prickle is to save the end user there, not kit out opportunities for them to urchin. (3)
- Try to fit all your satisfied preceding the angularity of the folio so the user doesn't ever have to coil downbound.
- If your punter came from a search, lodge the keywords at the top of the leaf so they know that they've come in to the freedom situation. (4)
- Make your "call-to-action" is apparent, similar to a "PURCHASE NOW!" knob. It should be self-evident what is predicted of the purchaser upon dawn.
A call-to-action may be easier to denote when you privation the traveler to formulate a purchase, but what would be the call-to-action for those who are just rum around your company? In this case, you should beginning off by providing enriching materials and next freehanded an chance for them to walk out their contact gossip to get corporation promotions, newsletters, or basically to acquire much. This conventionally requires the use of forms.
Runway Formation
When victimisation forms, the maximum high-status thing to bear in mind is to ever audition your forms before production your pages before a live audience. Also, be sure that your forms single ask for information that is categorically necessary, ensuring that the genre stays short-run and is smaller amount of a trouble to riddle out. Stating the side benefits of unessential the means adds other corroboration because citizens are ever more slickly persuaded with cracking facts to spinal column up their outcome.
Do not ask for feedback or explanation unless it compliments the goal of your platform leaf. Most likely, at hand will be other pages in your locality that would be more proper for this variety of contented.
To gain a number of remaining dividend points, bear the instance to calm your people that they will not be spammed and that their message will be private and not be sparse to ordinal parties. Leaving a cooperation to your secrecy line of reasoning will affirm this.

Pavel Nedved has hailed Juventus' winning mentality after they secured their second consecutive Serie A title with a 1-0 win over Palermo at the weekend.
The former midfielder, currently part of Juve's board of directors, feels the current crop of players has progressed rapidly in the last couple of seasons and is confident they can continue to deliver trophies in the near future.
"The players possess the winning mentality that Juventus is all about. Everyone's done really well, be it the coach or the group of players. I think they've all improved since last year's triumph, so you can only take your hat off to them," Nedved told the official Juventus website.
"I think the applause should go to the coach and all the players because, like I said, everyone's improved in so many aspects – progressing in the Champions League and winning the Scudetto by this kind of margin is a really difficult thing to do.
"Even after two Scudetto titles and a Super Cup victory, there are still other targets in mind, so we have to sit down and discuss how we can improve and what's required to keep on winning."
Juventus meet Atalanta, Cagliari and Sampdoria in their remaining three Serie A games.

New Delhi: British Foreign Secretary William Hague and Chancellor of Exchequer George Osborne on Tuesday called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and conveyed the UK`s keen desire to work with the new government here to further deepen and expand Indo-UK ties in key areas including defence and trade.
The leaders also noted that Modi`s election had generated a strong hope and excitement in the UK about India`s all-round development.
"The visiting leaders conveyed British Prime Minister David Cameron`s felicitations to the Prime Minister and extended his invitation to him for a visit to UK," a release from the Prime Minister`s Office said.
Reiterating its desire to deepen economic linkages with India, the UK said it was interested in expanding its network of diplomatic and trade offices in the country.
Among other issues, Modi "discussed with the visiting British Ministers ways to strengthen ties in the area of trade, investment, infrastructure development, energy, cyber- security, defence equipment, education and science and technology," the release said.
The UK ministers lauded Prime Minister`s "bold" initiative to invite SAARC leaders for the swearing in ceremony of the new government in May, it said.
Conveying his appreciation for the invitation from Cameron, Modi said he "looked forward to an early opportunity for a substantive visit to UK to take the relationship to a qualitatively new level".
He also conveyed his invitation to Prime Minister Cameron to visit India.
Modi noted the many strong links that have created a strong foundation for India-UK relations, especially the contribution of people-to-people ties, the strong and successful Indian diaspora and the generations of students.
The Indian leader also reiterated his strong commitment to develop friendship and cooperation with all neighbours.

Golden scales
|(Nanowerk News) There's a new "gold standard" in the sensitivity of weighing scales. Using the same technology with which they created the world's first fully functional nanotube radio, researchers with Berkeley Lab and the University of California (UC) at Berkeley have fashioned a nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS) that can function as a scale sensitive enough to measure the mass of a single atom of gold.
|Alex Zettl, a physicist who holds joint appointments with Berkeley Lab's Materials Sciences Division (MSD) and UC Berkeley's Physics Department, where he is the director of the Center of Integrated Nanomechanical Systems, led this research. Working with him were members of his research group, Kenneth Jensen and Kwanpyo Kim.
|"For the past 15 years or so, the holy grail of NEMS has been to push them to a small enough size with high enough sensitivity so that they might resolve the mass of a single molecule or even single atom," Zettl said. "This has been a challenge even at cryogenic temperatures where reduced thermal noise improves the sensitivity. We have achieved sub-single-atom resolution at room temperature!"
|A double-walled carbon nanotube NEMS has been used to measure the mass of a single atom of gold. Atoms landing on the tube change the tube's resonant frequency in proportion to the mass of the atoms, much like what happens when a diver hits a springboard. (Image: Kenneth Jensen)
|The new NEMS mass sensor consists of a single carbon nanotube that is double-walled to provide uniform electrical properties and increased rigidity. One tip of the carbon nanotube is free and the other tip is anchored to an electrode in close proximity to a counter-electrode. A DC voltage source, such as from a battery or a solar cell array, is connected to the electrodes. Applying a DC bias creates a negative electrical charge on the free tip of the nanotube. An additional radio frequency wave "tickles" the nanotube, causing it to vibrate at a characteristic "flexural" resonance frequency.
|When an atom or molecule is deposited onto the carbon nanotube, the tube's resonant frequency changes in proportion to the mass of the atom or molecule, much like the added mass of a diver changes the flexural resonance frequency of a diving board. Measuring this change in frequency reveals the mass of the impinging atom or molecule.
|"Getting nanotubes to vibrate is fairly easy," said Jensen. "The difficult part is detecting those small vibrations. We accomplished this by field-emitting, or spraying, electrons from the tip of the nanotube and detecting the resulting electrical current."
|Using their NEMS mass sensor, Zettl, Jensen and Kim were able to weigh individual gold atoms and measure masses as small as two fifths that of a gold atom at room temperature and in just a little more than one second of time. A gold atom has a mass of 3.25 x 10-25 kilograms, which means that there are about 3 million million million million gold atoms in a single kilogram.
|While there have been other NEMS that function as mass sensors before, most of these previous devices were fashioned from silicon, and none had achieved the magical single-atom resolution at room temperature. The carbon nanotube mass sensor of Zettl's group is a thousand times smaller by volume than typical NEMS resonators measuring only about a billionth of a meter in diameter and 200 billionths of a meter in length.
|"Carbon nanotubes are the ideal material for this purpose and their small size makes them sensitive enough to resolve single atoms even at room temperature," Jensen said.
|While scientists already have the ability to measure the mass of individual atoms through a complex technique known as mass spectrometry, this new carbon nanotube NEMS mass sensor offers some distinct advantages and opens the door to new possibilities, as Jensen explained.
|"Unlike mass spectrometry, our device does not require the ionization of neutral atoms or molecules that can destroy samples such as proteins. Also unlike mass spectrometers, our carbon nanotube mass sensor becomes more sensitive at higher mass ranges, which makes it more suitable for measuring large biomolecules like DNA. Finally, our device is small enough so that, in time, it could be incorporated onto a chip."

The Cape Fear Memorial Bridge was closed until 5:30 a.m. Monday.
The Cape Fear Memorial Bridge closed Friday night amid miscommunication from the state Department of Transportation, catching thousands of frustrated motorists unaware and causing huge traffic snarls in Brunswick and New Hanover counties. By midmorning Saturday, cars were backed up as far as Magnolia Greens on U.S. 17.
"The information we had said that repairs to the bridge would start on Oct. 1," said Tammy Stewart, a spokeswoman for DOT. "I don't know if something happened where they had to do it as an emergency situation, or maybe someone just gave us the wrong information."
The department issued a news release Tuesday saying that the bridge would be closed five times for "electrical and mechanical repairs" during the first half of October. The first closure wasn't scheduled until 8 p.m. Monday, but the bridge shut down to all traffic late Friday night. It is scheduled to reopen at 5 a.m. Monday.
The Department of Transportation has 14 divisions, which funnel traffic and closure information to the communications department, which then disseminates that information to the public. Stewart was unclear where the breakdown in communication occurred, and was also unsure if Monday night's scheduled closing would proceed as planned.
"There isn't anything they've sent us," she said. "I don't know if wires got crossed or what – I don't know."
Motorists entering or leaving Wilmington on U.S. 17 Business, U.S. 76 East or U.S. 421 South should use the Isabel Holmes Bridge for the duration of the weekend.
According to Tuesday's release, the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge's closure schedule is as follows:
• Monday, Oct. 1, at 8 p.m. until Tuesday, Oct. 2, at 5 a.m.
• Tuesday, Oct. 2, at 8 p.m. until Wednesday, Oct. 3, at 5 a.m.
• Wednesday, Oct. 10, at 8 p.m. until Thursday, Oct. 11, at 5 a.m.
• Thursday, Oct. 11, at 8 p.m. until Friday, Oct. 12, at 5 a.m.
• Friday, Oct. 12, at 8 p.m. until Monday, Oct. 15, at 5 a.m.

KHARTOUM (Reuters) - Two weeks of fighting in Sudan's Darfur has displaced 30,000 people who are in need for food and shelter, the United Nations said after some of the worst clashes in the western region for months.
Conflict has raged in Darfur, a vast arid region, since 2003 when mainly non-Arab tribes took up arms against the Arab government in Khartoum, accusing it of political and economic marginalization.
Fighting and rebels divisions have scuppered years of international mediation and several rounds of peace talks. Violence has ebbed from the peaks of 2003-4 but has picked up in recent weeks, while banditry has also spread.
Around 30,000 people fled their homes in Golo and Guldo towns to escape two weeks of fighting that began on December 24 in the Jebel Marra region, prized for its fertile land, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said in a report.
Some 2,800 people fled to a camp in Nertiti in central Darfur, home to already 42,000 displaced people, its report said late on Thursday, citing figures from the government and a community leader.
Rebels from the Sudan Liberation Army (SLA) faction, led by Abdel Wahed Mohamed al-Nur, have seized the towns of Golo and Rockero, the international peacekeeping force UNAMID said on Wednesday.
Fighting broke also out this week between two tribes in North Darfur over the use of a gold mine.
The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for President Omar Hassan al-Bashir and other Sudanese officials for masterminding war crimes in Darfur. They deny the charges and refuse to recognize the court.
Human rights groups and the United Nations estimate that hundreds of thousands of people have died in Darfur's conflict, although the toll is disputed by the government, which says around 10,000 people were killed.
Around 1.4 million displaced people live in camps across Darfur, depending on aid rations, according to the United Nations.

This is one of a series of posts that presents, nearly in its entirety, the first annual Forbes Healthcare Summit that was held on December 5, 2012, in the Allen Room at Jazz at Lincoln Center in Manhattan. Two hundred and thirty-two executives, entrepreneurs, thinkers and policy makers gathered to talk, trade ideas, and grapple with a big-picture conversation about the health care system. Video of almost every single panel is included.
Panel: Healthcare As a Consumer Product - Making Health Insurance Price Transparent
In most industries, from cars to banking, information creates empowered consumers. You know how much you pay when you buy a new car, and the car dealer knows how much he will get. Why not the same for health insurance? We need transparency, affordability and accessibility.
Moderator: Steve Forbes, Chairman & Editor-in-Chief, Forbes Media
Panelists: John Driscoll, President, Castlight Health
Simon Stevens, President of Global Health, UnitedHealth Group
Ronald Williams, Retired Chairman & CEO, Aetna, and Chairman & CEO, RW2 Enterprises, LLC.

According to recent reports, healthcare is an attractive industry for most investors. The reports highlight CVS and Amazon battling to own the healthcare consumer. Both of the companies are making significant moves towards establishing business in healthcare. Recently, Amazon acquired license for distribution of healthcare related equipment in multiple states. The report also indicates the company's intention to obtain more pharmacy licenses including distribution of prescription medication. On release of the report, several investors in the pharmaceutical industry shed their shares in bow of Amazon as a competitor in pharmaceutical sales.
Although Amazon has not clearly stated its intentions to venture in pharmaceutical sales, it is apparent from its moves and response of other firms in the industry. CVS for instance is acquiring Aetna as a first move in venturing in health insurance. The pharmaceutical company has also introduced next-day prescription delivery across the nation. These are indications of CVS preparations to compete with Amazon and maintain its market share.
Amazon venturing in pharmaceuticals is a game changer for existing firms in the industry. Reports indicate increasing innovation among key players in the industry. Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) are also enhancing their level of services to remain relevant in the industry. Amazon is a real threat to the industry because it is already a universal store across the United States. This offers it a wide consumer platform thus an upper hand in any new venture.

Celia's school has a club that makes baby hats for newborns at a local hospital.
On Monday we are walking to the hospital (Audrey will be in the stroller, she has made me promise that) with the baby hat club to deliver the hats.
Most Mondays have been spent with a loom and yarn making baby hats.
This is one of her master pieces.
I think it's pretty good.
Time is running out at this sweet little school.
Celia and I are going to miss it..
We made the decision around the time that we moved
that Celia would go to our local district elementary school.
We are going to give it a try.
It will be ok.
She loves this school so much that she
wants me to promise that Audrey will go to school
at that school. My oldest is sweet.
As for baby hats.
We will still make them and deliver them to T. Michelle.

Selected projects from submitted abstracts that meet the FQC requirements for adding understanding based on quantified research will also be included. Two projects have been expanded based on membership requests and two additional projects are aimed at mounting tape selection and color tolerance communication and understanding. This session will begin with an update of all active projects in the FQC. Be sure to attend to find out what the membership and the FQC are doing to support the technical challenges of flexo and how we are helping to define and support our industry standards. This will include an update from the Standards Working Group. Session Chairs: Jean Engelke, Eastman Kodak Company and Sam Ingram, Clemson University Workflow Automation...Right Here, Right Now! Many companies use workflow automation solutions, but are they really using them to their full potential? Often large investments are made in powerful automation tools, but frequently only a fraction of the system's functionality is utilized. Whether you are just using basic graphic editors or have invested in a full automation solution, this session will help you get more out of your investment. Speakers will discuss basic scripting techniques, maximizing existing workflow systems, and new solutions that continue to increase efficiency and throughput. Session Chairs: Randy Butler, MacDermid Printing Solutions and Rory Marsoun, Esko Wednesday, May 1 FIRST (Flexographic Image Reproduction Specifications & Tolerances) Rely on FIRST training! The establishment of FIRST has been one of the most influential programs to advance the quality levels of the flexographic industry. FIRST is the most frequently referred to technical resource in the industry and its training programs have been a tremendous resource for both managers and operators in which to perfect their skills and gain control of their processes. FIRST certification programs are designed for the press operator, prepress operator and the implementation specialist. It also offers a company-wide certification program as well. Becoming FIRST certified is a valuable accomplishment, one that increases the knowledge base within an organization and also increases the credibility of a company to CPCs as being one that is on top of the latest technologies and that employs highly qualified operators within the organization. This session provides an outline of the FIRST certification programs and the process FTA provides in promoting the accomplishment of becoming FIRST certified. Representatives from companies who have completed the various FIRST certified programs will describe their experiences and how they have influenced their organizations in a very positive way. In addition, CPCs will provide their perception of FIRST programs and how being FIRST certified influences them in choosing their suppliers.

Paralysis by analysis.
I say, take thinking out of the solution, it only gets you into trouble. Do not follow Karl Maldens advice, I say leave your brain at home, travel light!
Turn everything into a small template of computational problems and then work on those. The true "Teakettle Principle!"]]>
hmmm... i used some weird guessing/intuition and got half of the correct answer of number 1...
That is how I get all my answers. Did you check the answer?]]>
(i) The tetrahedron. I think the little one has sides that are half the large one. So that should fix the ratio of volumes.
LATER EDIT: I've changed my mind about this one. See post 10 on

(ii) If you call the sides a, b and c then
ab = 56 ........................(p)
bc = 110 ........................(q)
ca = 385 .........................(r)
If you do equation (p) divide by (q) you'll eliminate b
Then make a the subject and substitute into (r) to solve for c.
Then you can substitute back to get a and b.
(iii) Again call the sides a, b and c.
From the information given
This time you cannot solve for a, b and c because there are only two equations. But you don't need to, because we only want to get
There's a neat way to get this. Start with

Sibu's brother Lalu Soren joins Trinamool Congress
Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) supremo Sibu Soren's younger brother Lalu has joined Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congressranchi Updated: Mar 02, 2014 14:46 IST
Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) supremo Sibu Soren's younger brother Lalu has joined Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress.
"On February 27, we attended a party meeting at Trinamool Bhawan in Kolkata. Senior party leader Mukul Roy welcomed the decision," said Jharkhand state president of TMC's women cell Munni Hansda on Saturday.
JMM central general secretary Supriyo Bhattacharya claimed the move would not impact JMM's campaign.
"This is nothing but a political drama," he told Hindustan Times.
Lalu Soren was reportedly in Bokaro and could not be contacted for comments.
Trinamool Congress has been building its base in the bordering areas of West Bengal, including Dumka, Pakur, Jamtara and Sahebganj for the last five years.
In Dumka, Hansda had launched an agitation against the RPG Group for installation of a 1,000 MW power plant in the Kathikund block in 2008.
She has been working for Trinamool Congress for some years now.

Last weekend, unranked Army stunned Navy and moved int the top 10. Johns Hopkins, ranked second, fell to top-ranked North Carolina and dropped to No. 3.
Yesterday, in the rain at Homewood Field, their fortunes were reversed.
Hopkins scored the game's first five goals early in the first quarter and went on to rout the 10th-ranked Cadets, 18-8.
"We knew Army was a good team. They were coming off of one of their best starts ever, and we knew they would be sky high for us. They always are," said senior Matt Panetta, who had two goals in the 5-0 run. "Because we knew they would play really physical while looking to double real quick against us, we just wanted to move the ball around, find the open man and get the good shots. That's just what we did."

Hi guys
I have to doubt
Recently I configured a Zimbra server version 8.7.11, I have my default domain and I will have more domains on that same server, I doubt, do I have to have a certificate for each domain?
- Zimbra Collaboration 8.6 Patch 9 now available (includes fix for CVE-2017-8802). Read the announcement.
- Zimbra Collaboration 8.8.7 + Zimbra Connector for Outlook 8.8.7 are available.. Read the announcement.
- Are you a Zimbra Developer? You can find some interesting stuff in our Official GitHub: https://github.com/Zimbra and check the Community Projects too: https://github.com/Zimbra-Community/
Discuss your pilot or production implementation with other Zimbra admins or our engineers.

Even though only a few of us went out for an easy Monday ride, I was pretty excited to get out and start learning some of the routes around school. This area definitely has a lot more climbing than the area back around Pfeiffer. Admittedly, it was kind of hard to have a recovery/easy ride with all of the climbing we had to do. Even worse, the person leading us on the route told us this was an easy route with "no hard climbs!" I know I'll get used to the terrain, but coming from the flatlands of Naples, FL its the complete opposite.
At one point we found ourselves heading down an road with a number of cattle fields lining it. One thing I noticed was that one of the fields had no fences blocking the cattle from going onto and crossing the road. As I noticed this, we all saw what we thought was one of the cows standing in the middle of the road. Getting closer to it, all of us realized it wasn't just a cow, but a bull that was pretty big! We came to a stop, unsure of what it might do, but the moment it turned in our direction and came towards us we all clipped back in and bolted away. In our getaway we were now being chased by three German Shepards which by the look of them, really hate cyclists. After one minor wreck amid all the chaos, we got away, but I definitely won't be going back down that road anytime soon!

Sepsis lives can be saved, says ombudsman
More must be done to save the lives of patients with sepsis, says a report from the Health Service Ombudsman.
It found significant failings in treatment of the condition, which is caused when the body's immune system overreacts to infection.
It focused on 10 patients who were not treated urgently enough and died.
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence will produce guidance for GPs and clinicians to help them recognise sepsis at an early stage.
Around 37,000 people are estimated to die of sepsis each year, accounting for 100,000 hospital admissions.
The Ombudsman, who investigates complaints from people who have received poor service from the NHS in England, said diagnosing and treatment presented some real problems because the condition was hard to spot and treat.
Sepsis can lead to swelling and blood clotting - and cause internal organs to stop working.
The most common causes of severe sepsis are pneumonia, bowel perforation, urinary infection, and severe skin infections.
Julie Mellor, the Health Service Ombudsman, said it was time for the NHS to act.
"In the cases in our report, sadly, all patients died. In some of these cases, with better care and treatment, they may have survived.
"We have worked closely with NHS England, NICE, UK Sepsis Trust and Royal Colleges to find solutions to the issues identified in our report. NICE and NHS England have already agreed to take forward the recommendations of our report.
"We know it is not easy to spot the early signs of sepsis, but if we learn from these complaints and work to improve diagnosis and provide rapid treatment, then lives can be saved."
The report recommended improving the recognition and treatment of sepsis by providing medical staff with clear clinical guidance.
She also recommended that NHS England launch a public awareness campaign which targets vulnerable groups of patients, such as those who are weak or in hospital.
Clinical staff should attach more importance to listening to the relatives of patients since they can be the first to recognise the patient's deterioration, she said, and more senior doctors should be involved in patient care.
Simple life-savers
Dr Ron Daniels, chairman of the UK Sepsis Trust, said there was a straightforward solution.
"The best hospitals have achieved better outcomes from sepsis by adopting a simple set of life-saving measures, collectively known as the Sepsis 6, and ensuring that a culture of awareness around sepsis has been created.
"We now need to spread this awareness to other health professionals and to the public, and to underpin this with guidance from NHS England and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence."
He said the recommendations would potentially save 12,500 more lives every year.
Dr Mike Durkin, NHS England's director of patient safety, said the NHS would use the findings to work with GPs and hospitals to reduce deaths from sepsis.
"This report and guidance will help us to build on the work that is already in place to emphasise the importance of education, early detection and prompt treatment.
"We all need in every setting to understand the importance of identifying deterioration in both adults and children, in reducing the admission of full-term babies to neonatal care and identifying problems in vulnerable older people in the first 48 hours of acute illness."
Dr Peter Carter, chief executive of the Royal College of Nursing, said the report showed the tragic consequences of sepsis.
"It is vital that all staff are provided with training and support to enable them to recognise the signs and symptoms of sepsis, and crucially to know how to act quickly when sepsis is diagnosed."

The kids will like this animated romp about summer vacation, and so will the adults sitting next to them.
Its well characterised comedy of playground manners and teasing social awareness rings confidently through.
Whimsical, engaging.
Refreshingly subversive.
About as exciting as a lunchbox full of carrot sticks.
Passably speedy on the level of other TV retreads that seem miscast on the big screen.
Audience Reviews for Recess: School's Out
An extended episode with a rediculous plot that will have the kids laughing and the adults sleeping.

While it is formulaic when stacked up to its television show counterpart, School's Out provides an ambitious plot line noted with a strong antagonist performance by James Woods
