text: Hello: This is my first posting to the list, although I have been using ffmpeg for many years on a more simple basis. I greatly appreciate any help anyone can give me on the issues below. 1. I am in the first steps of building an ffmpeg application to encode mobile 3gp clips from mpeg2 sources. The encoding quality thus far has been supurb, however, in addition to creating the videos, I need to update a database with information from encode job - ie.. file size, bitrate, etc. Does anyone know of any pre-existing projects working with FFMPEG that can generate say an XML job report from the verbose information FFMPEG provides when it has completed an encode? I could probably use ffmpeg-php to query a file after it is encoded, but wanted to know if there was a more streamlined way about this. 2. Has anyone successfully encoded any 3gp videos using the H.264 video codec in FFMPEG. I have tried several trial encodes over the weekend, but none have been successful ... at least the video wouldn't play in either Quicktime or Real players ... although it would play in Mplayer! Cheers, D

The manufacturing activity index from the Richmond Fed's regional manufacturing survey was a reading of +14 in August. This is a significant increase from the -11 reading in July, and moves the index back above zero indicating economic expansion in the manufacturing sector. This is also the highest the Richmond Fed Manufacturing index has been since March of 2011.
The Richmond Fed is the last of the 5 leading regional manufacturing surveys conducted by Federal Reserve banks to report for August. Prior to this release it was the only survey indicating economic contraction in the manufacturing sector. Now, all 5 surveys indicate economic expansion.

Dear Sir,
I want to put this letter as an explanation to your kind notice that presently I am dealing with massive financial crisis as I have lost my last job due to some specific reason.

I will pay everything I owe, but now all I can ask for is a little bit cooperation with me so I can overcome the situation real soon.

Welcome to my blog. You can read about my adventures in different types of needlework, and I also offer some free cross stitch patterns. Please, come back often. :)
A geometric pattern for a biscornu - freebie!
Hi, summer crafting continues but this is the last week. Next week I am back to work. Crafting will not stop, of course not, but I might have to slow down a bit. :)
This is what happened since I last posted. I finished two small cross stitches: a teddy bear and an owl.
The teddy was done following a pattern from a magazine, as usual:
With the owl, I was looking through my stack of patterns, and of course, I could not find anything I really liked. Then I thought, I have been improvising with surface embroidery so much, what if I try to do something similar in cross stitch? So instead of a pattern I looked at a few owl photos, started with the eyes and the head above the eyes, that was the most difficult part. The rest of the body was easy. And the colours: this is for a little girl who loves owls and her favourite colour is pink. :)
Perhaps I can now draw the pattern for the owl.
I am almost done with warping my loom. I have threaded the reed and the heddles, now I only have to roll the warp up, but for this I need help.
I also started on my second quilt. This is going to be a king size (or something like this, huge, anyway, to cover my bed). Half of the block are done. The other half will be the same block but with different colours.
I am following this pattern, although I made a mistake when I was putting my blocks together, so they are not exactly the same as in the pattern. But I don't mind. :D
And finally, I have been drawing some geometric patterns in my cross stitch program. Here is the first one: just the right size for a biscornu, but it can also be used as a separate motif for a card, or as border in a row - in this case omit the backstitch line around it, that is only necessary if you are sewing it together as a biscornu.
Good luck with it, happy stitching.

Nationwide Children's Hospital Central Energy Plant
New central energy plant constructed and utilities integrated into active hospital operations without disruption to patient care.
This program enabled the hospital to embark on a major bed tower expansion on their main campus and included a new central energy plant (CEP), more than 1,500 feet of underground utility tunnels, a renovation of the existing loading dock, and demolition of two buildings.
Replacing the powerhouse, the new CEP supplies power, chilled water, domestic water, and high pressure steam to the existing hospital facility through a single underground utility tunnel and to the new replacement bed tower through two, new utility tunnels. The process of switching utilities from the old power plant to the new CEP were seamless to ensure NCH could operate at its highest potential and provide the best care to its patients.
Our team proactively implemented many upfront cost control strategies to ensure owner savings. For example, there were 36 utility cutovers in the project which involved numerous complexities and subcontractor partners. Implementing a design-assist delivery and gathering the subcontractor's input allowed for the team to proactively engage in cost saving suggestions to bring the mechanical and electrical trades into the process early.
Maintaining Safe Service to Patients through Construction
"Your team was open to and worked well with the owner on a regular basis to understand the unique needs of a building project that serves virtually every building on our campus and keeping the primary mission of service our patients in the forefront of all construction activities." – David Wohlwend, Construction Manager, Nationwide Children's Hospital

- Starring: Ben Affleck (Hollywoodland), Bryan Cranston (Drive), John Goodman (The Artist) and more.
- Directed by: Ben Affleck (The Town)
- Synopsis: "Based on true events, "Argo" chronicles the life-or-death covert operation to rescue six Americans, which unfolded behind the scenes of the Iran hostage crisis—the truth of which was unknown by the public for decades. On November 4, 1979, as the Iranian revolution reaches its boiling point, militants storm the U.S. embassy in Tehran, taking 52 Americans hostage. But, in the midst of the chaos, six Americans manage to slip away and find refuge in the home of the Canadian ambassador. Knowing it is only a matter of time before the six are found out and likely killed, a CIA "exfiltration" specialist named Tony Mendez (Affleck) comes up with a risky plan to get them safely out of the country. A plan so incredible, it could only happen in the movies." (-Collider)
- Rated: Rated R for language and use of violence.
- Trailer:
Oftentimes when a historical "based on true events" movie claims to tell a story rooted in an event that happened in the past, two things pop into my head: 1-either there will be a familiar story painted over with way too much character focus and/or special effects, or, 2- with an already known ending, this movie may be okay, but the ending will be padded with so much emotion that the events leading up to it may end up forgotten.
and…usually, one of those 2 thoughts, I find, aren't too far off from the truth.
What an amazing job Ben Affleck did in telling the recently unclassified events that took place surrounding the extraction of American hostages in a time of civil unrest and trouble in Tehran, Iran in the midst of the revolution. Affleck stars as Tony Mendez, the CIA "exfiltration" specialist who cleverly designed "the best bad idea" the US government had to extract six Americans who were in hiding in the home of the Canadian ambassador.
If I had to describe this movie in one word, that word would be: TENSE.
With the recent attack on the US embassy in Libya still in memory, the film very quickly brings the sense of reality to home as we watch the reenactment of the US embassy in Iran overtaken. Affleck very artistically and appropriately inserts frames and camera shots taken directly from archival photographs and recreates them in the movie adding a unique sense of genuine reality as emotions set in during the somber and scary scenes.
One of the greatest parts of this film is the use of all of the characters that Affleck used in telling this story that has never been told on screen. The delivery of the cast used for these characters really brought to life the events that took place. You can't really make up better stuff than this, folks. Reality, as opposed to fiction, truly creates the better stories.
The characters bring the power of the events to the audience in such a fashion that will captivate far greater than most movies about espionage and covert operations. They are working hard to make everyone else in the movie believe they are who they say they are, and their work makes it easier for us to accept them as such. It is an incredible performance by all.
The premise of a Canadian film crew seeking to make a science fiction film sounds challenging enough, but there are even greater challenges that Affleck allows us to be a part of. He invites us into the experience as we see the angst and anticipation of the people whose lives depended on the Iranian officials around them believing the ruse they set up. Timing, records…everything is of the essence.
Nail-biting scene after white-knuckling scene, you will have your eyes glued to the screen as you watch the events unfold. ever waiting for the proverbial sigh of relief, yet unsure when…if ever…it will arrive. Even those who were alive during the events that took place, the fact that the details of these events recently were unclassified means there is something new to the story for all to watch and see unfold. What impressive story telling by Ben Affleck. With a great cast, a subject of humanity and survival, the look and feel of the early 80's and even a contributing musical score, there is very little to complain about here. I found nothing disappointing about Argo and give it the coveted perfect score. Bravo, Affleck. Bravo.
Go to Argo. (and stay as the credits begin rolling for a look at some of the actual people, events, and a quick word from President Jimmy Carter himself.)
Score: 5 out of 5 stars for Argo (A "Best Picture" nomination for sure!)
Thanks for reading! Happy Watching!
–T, The Focused Filmographer

Here are some haiku about commercial space transportation company SpaceX. The subject of each is something to do with SpaceX, such as a rocket or spacecraft.
Sleek, thin and white
Exhaling flame, it rises up
And pierces the sky
The first tech demo
A few hundred kilograms
Into Earth orbit
Launched on a rocket
The smallest of supply ships
For the ISS
South African-born
The head of two companies
He's the CEO

In an article written by Ventures Africa, the number of millionaires springing up from digital ventures has grown tremendously in the past two decades as the world embraced the potential of knowledge technologies, information and social media to produce economic benefits as well as job creation. From Mark Zuckerberg to Sergey Brin, Lawrence E. Page and YouTube partners Steve Chen, Chad Hurley and Jawed Karim, the world has witnessed a new breed of entrepreneurs who have a new course of business and make a fortune while at that.
The African continent has not been lagging behind.
Innovative minds in the motherland have cited and exploited opportunities in the knowledge economy, which has become more prominent as the internet usage and importance increased over the years. In their article, Ventures Africa have shortlisted, in no respective order, 10 Africans who have successful amassed a fortune from founding million dollar internet companies.
Among these ten Africans is Jason Njoku, Founder and CEO of Iroko TV.
The Nigerian Internet entrepreneur is the founder of Iroko TV – the world's largest digital distributor of African movies. Iroko TV was labeled the 'Netflix of Africa' according to forbes.
Earlier this year, Iroko TV raised $8 million in venture capital from Tiger Global Management, a New York-based private equity and hedge fund run by billionaire Chase Coleman.

C O N F I D E N T I A L MOSCOW 002696 SIPDIS GENEVA FOR JCIC DEPT FOR T, ISN, VCI, EUR/PRA E.O. 12958: DECL: 10/29/2019 TAGS: KCFE KNNP KTIA PARM PREL START RS US SUBJECT: U.S.-RUSSIA ARMS CONTROL AND INTERNATIONAL SECURITY WORKING GROUP MEETING, MOSCOW, OCTOBER 12 Classified By: Ambassador John Beyrle for reasons 1.4 (b) and (d) ¶1. (C) SUMMARY: At the inaugural meeting of the U.S.-Russia Binational Commission's Arms Control and International Security Working Group, held October 12 in Moscow, U/S Tauscher and Russian D/FM Ryabkov reviewed Missile Defense, nonproliferation issues, CFE, and START. Lt General O'Reilly of the Missile Defense Agency provided a detailed presentation on the latest U.S. planning on Missile Defense in Europe, and U/S Tauscher pressed for Russian movement on establishment of a Joint Data Exchange Center (JDEC), participation in the Joint Threat Assessment (JTA), and related issues. The Russians agreed in principle to a next JTA meeting in the October-November 2009 time frame but deferred movement on further cooperation until their experts had examined the details of General O'Reilly's presentation. U/S Tauscher invited Russian missile defense experts to come to Colorado Springs to visit the facility and discuss missile defense cooperation. ¶2. (C) On nonproliferation issues, the Russians: emphasized the need for P5 coordination on NPT RevCon issues but acknowledged there may be areas where P5 or bilateral agreement will not be possible; probed for details of U.S. planning for CTBT ratification; asked about U.S. strategy for moving forward with Pakistan to break the deadlock on FMCT at the CD; pressed for U.S. support on Russian positions on specific UN First Committee draft resolutions; and detailed Russian concerns relating to the Global Summit on Nuclear Security and issues discussed at the Sherpa meeting in Vienna. They also expressed concerns about lack of U.S. interest in bilateral cooperation on UNSCR 1540 implementation and difficulties with implementation of the 123 agreement. ¶3. (C) On CFE, both sides identified problematic areas but affirmed their continued desire to look for areas of common ground and reiterated their openness to bilateral as well as multilateral discussions. On START, both D/FM Ryabkov and Russian Ambassador Antonov expressed their intention to work hard with the U.S. side to meet the December 5, 2009 deadline; U/S Tauscher and VCI Assistant Secretary Gottemoeller echoed this view and expressed appreciation for the seriousness with which Russia was engaging in the START talks. End Summary. MISSILE DEFENSE --------------- ¶4. (SBU) After introductory remarks, MDA Director, LTG O'Reilly provided a briefing on the Administration's new Phased Adaptive Approach to missile defense (MD). His briefing covered: the emerging missile threats that the new approach is designed to meet and the time frames for the four phases for dealing with these threats; the lack of capability against Russian ICBMs; and potential U.S.-Russia MD cooperation. Possible cooperative areas include: sharing MD sensor data, cooperative development of optics and laser technologies, and collaborative flight testing. ¶5. (C) DFM Ryabkov said that Russia would need to review and analyze the issues raised in LTG O'Reilly's presentation. Ryabkov then turned to Amb. Antonov to provide some reactions. Antonov questioned the assumption that Iran is a threat to southern Europe. He said that the U.S. was confusing capabilities with intentions and that the July 6, 2009 Moscow Summit Joint Statement on Missile Defense Issues referenced missile challenges not missile threats. U/S Tauscher responded that the U.S. threat perception is based on Iran's belligerence, non-compliance with UNSC resolutions, and the threatening rhetoric of Iran's President. ¶6. (C) U/S Tauscher noted that the U.S. is offering a wide range of cooperation. She said that the U.S. would like to: have a Russian delegation come to the U.S. to discuss with State ISN Acting Assisting Secretary Van Diepen a Joint Threat Assessment; extend the JDEC and PLNS agreements which are both due to expire in 2010; work to get the JDEC up and running; and agree on a format for notification of Ground Based Interceptor (GBI) launches over the Washington-Moscow Direct Communications Link. She provided drafts of agreements to extend the JDEC and PLNS agreements, and a non-paper on notifications. ¶7. (C) DFM Ryabkov replied that there is no doubt that Russia views the President's September 17 decision as a step in the right direction and one which partially takes into account Russia's views of U.S. MD policy in Europe. He added that the possibility of dialogue has been extended and improved. He noted tha t the U.S. approach places a great emphasis on technology and that there are issues raised by the future strategic capabilities of the Phased Adaptive Approach's latter phases. Ryabkov added that we must move toward a common understanding of what is being developed as an alternative to the Bush Administration's program. He asked for more detail on what the U.S. was now planning to deploy in terms of ground-based systems in Europe - including in Poland. He also raised the question about the system's potential growth in the future. ¶8. (C) DFM Ryabkov said that Russia was also interested in U.S.-Japan MD cooperation, commenting that it raised concern that the Missile Technology control Regime (MTCR) should be abided by. Col. Il'in of the Russian MoD said that the U.S. had provided clear numbers on interceptors to be deployed in Europe during the Bush Administration. He asked whether the U.S. could say how many, and what types of, interceptors would be deployed during each phase of the Phased Adaptive Approach. LTG O'Reilly responded that the SM-3 interceptors were in canisters that would be easy to count but that the absolute number of interceptors would be based on military commanders' assessments of the threat. He added that the Joint Threat Assessment could assist us in understanding the numbers of interceptors that would be needed. ¶9. (C) With respect to missile threats, Ryabkov said that Russia has its own view of "real" Iranian achievements vs. "hypotheses." He added that there are many other missile threats to be considered apart from Iran. He noted, however, that there is now a better basis to move forward on a Joint Threat Assessment than in July. Highlighting the importance of a mutually agreed foundation, he also stressed the importance of work in the NATO-Russia Council, specifically the good work that has already been done on theater missile defense (TMD). ¶10. (C) U/S Tauscher proposed that there be a second Joint Threat Assessment meeting in October or November in Washington. She also again raised the need to move on the JDEC and PLNS agreements and cited reference in the July 6 Moscow Summit's Joint Statement on Missile Defense Issues to the fact that our two countries are intensifying their dialogue on JDEC. Ryabkov responded that Russia could agree to a Joint Threat Assessment meeting in Washington in October but that prior experience does not indicate that our estimates will reach the same view. U/S Tauscher accepted this offer to send a threat assessment team to Washington and again emphasized the need to move forward on resolving JDEC issues and the Direct Communications Link format for GBI launches. Ryabkov responded that on JDEC we had gone through different stages but that Russia perceived a more deep-rooted problem than resolving specific unresolved JDEC issues. He added that resolving the problems of assessing missile threats would allow us to move forward with JDEC. NONPROLIFERATION ---------------- ¶11. (C) NPT RevCon: Turning to nonproliferation issues, Ryabkov emphasized that a successful Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty Review Conference (NPT RevCon) in May 2010 would be one of the major challenges ahead. The September 24, 2009 U.S.-chaired UN Security Council Summit and its unanimous adoption of UNSC Resolution 1887 had been a complex undertaking that exceeded expectations and opened the way for progress on a balanced approach on all three "pillars" of the NPT: nonproliferation, disarmament and peaceful uses. Also, the events at the UN and the April 2010 Nuclear Security Summit in Washington were generating great expectations for U.S.-Russia bilateral cooperation on nonproliferation and disarmament issues. Ryabkov stressed the importance of working with a number of countries, and not just in the NAM, to highlight U.S. and Russia progress on disarmament issues. Recalling the London P5 meeting on September 4, 2009, and the bilateral meeting on its margins, Ryabkov noted the importance of transparency in nuclear policy and that it was desirable for the P5 to develop a unified position to this effect. The question now was how to move other P5 participants to concrete action in this area. Ambassador Antonov suggested that the U.S. and Russia chair a joint briefing on nuclear disarmament at the RevCon. He noted good experiences with such briefings in past RevCons, including in 2000. ¶12. (SBU) U/S Tauscher concurred in Ryabkov's assessments of the recent P5 consultations in London and events at the UN, which should provide a strong foundation on which to build. She advocated a robust P5 statement on the RevCon covering all three "pillars," noting that the U.S. and Russia did not receive enough credit for their work on disarmament as well as on nonproliferation and peaceful uses. Tauscher encouraged Russian participation in the scheduled October 14 P5 lunch hosted by U.S. Special Representative for Nuclear Nonproliferation Ambassador Burk in New York to discuss some of these NPT RevCon issues in more depth (Note: Russian representatives did participate. End note.) and supported holding another P5 meeting to assess milestones completed and future work in advance of the RevCon. ¶13. (SBU) CTBT: Ryabkov noted the importance Russia and others attached to the Secretary's participation in the CTBT Article XIV Conference on September 24, after a ten-year absence. He sought details of U.S. ratification planning, asking whether CTBT ratification before the NPT RevCon was still an option, or would it be postponed until later? ¶14. (C) U/S Tauscher reiterated the President's commitment to seek ratification and emphasized that timing would depend in large part on the START ratification process. The Senate schedule was often unpredictable, but the Administration would need to have a very significant conversation with Senate members before proceeding on CTBT. Tauscher said she had discussed with CTBT colleagues on the margins of the Article XIV conference how to encourage others among the nine outstanding Annex 2 countries to ratify. She noted Indonesia's positive statement of intention to ratify when the U.S. ratifies and said China seemed serious about CTBT ratification at the London meeting. She welcomed Russia's thoughts on how to encourage countries with more complicated ratification scenarios such as Egypt, Pakistan, and India to move forward in this area. She also encouraged Russian statements promoting ratification of CTBT and noted the important role for scientists on both the U.S. and Russian sides in this discussion. ¶15. (C) Ryabkov opined that ratification by one or two of the outstanding Annex 2 countries could result in a "wave" of ratifiers among the outstanding nine countries. He noted that in the Asia/Pacific region, Russia did not see the possibility of some (presumably DPRK) acceding to CTBT, but that the P5 could discuss this in more detail. ¶16. (C) FMCT: Ryabkov also sought details of U.S. steps being taken with Pakistan to resolve Islamabad's opposition to starting substantive negotiations on a Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty (FMCT) at the Conference on Disarmament (CD) in Geneva. Ryabakov noted Russia was working with Pakistan in both Geneva and Moscow; he had met several times with Pakistan's ambassador in Moscow. U/S Tauscher confirmed that FMCT was a priority for the U.S., which was committed to making sure the CD's Program of Work, which includes FMCT negotiations, can go forward. She had met several times with the Pakistani ambassador in Washington but was not sure their discussion had moved the issue very far. She recalled that at the September 4 London P5 meeting, participants had agreed to make separate demarches to Pakistan and had also discussed a joint demarche, agreeing to revisit the issue in mid-October. Tauscher said the P5 needed to work further on this, although China had seemed unsure. She thought a P5 joint statement could move things forward and put the five on record. Even if China demurred, a joint demarche or statement among the four would be useful. ¶17. (C) Ryabkov said that with regard to a P5 demarche, China was on the fence. He warned that if not resolved, the issue would become "very topical" in the context of the NPT and events planned for 2010. He underlined the need to get rid of this obstacle and reiterated the importance of U.S. pressure. ¶18. (C) Regarding the IAEA, Ryabkov thought very good groundwork already had been laid but that UNSCR 1887 had shown the need for more intensive bilateral and P5 discussion on issues such as universalization of the Additional Protocol (AP). There was also the question of how to tackle Negative Security Assurances (NSA), where Russia supported creation of an international convention, which was, however, not acceptable to all. The P5 needed to be prepared on issues such as these before the NPT Rev Con, although full agreement might not be achievable. Nevertheless, the P5 should try to find some common ground. U/S Tauscher noted the ongoing work of the Nuclear Posture Review (NPR), which would affect the U.S. position on NSA. ¶19. (C) Middle East Resolution: On the NPT RevCon Resolution on the Middle East, Ryabkov said it would be destructive to the Treaty regime if there was no resolution of this issue and suggested holding another P5 discussion on this if needed. All states in the region should be in compliance with the NPT, all states should accede to the NPT, and all nuclear facilities should be under safeguards. He conceded that finding common ground in this area might not be possible. U/S Tauscher said the U.S. was working closely with Egypt to find a way forward. The U.S. would support approaches in the RevCon that were consultative, positive, and which did not cause participants to take sides. ¶20. (SBU) UN General Assembly First Committee (UNFC): Ryabkov highlighted the importance of close bilateral cooperation in the UNGA First Committee (UNFC). In particular, he asked for U.S. support for Russian opposition to a Kazakhstan draft resolution proposing establishment of a UN International Day for a World Free of Nuclear Weapons; and U.S. support for a Russian draft resolution on "Bilateral Strategic Nuclear Arms Reductions and the New Strategic Framework." On the first issue, Ryabkov claimed the Kazakhstan initiative would become entangled in some of the work of the NPT RevCon and pit Nuclear Weapons States against Non-Nuclear Weapons States; he sought U.S. support in opposing discussions or a vote on such a resolution although he indicated Russia might be prepared to agree to a resolution with a different name and identifying a date other than August 29, offering several alternative dates. (Note: August 29, 1949 is the date of the first Soviet atomic bomb test. End note.) ¶21. (SBU) Ambassador Antonov noted that the U.S. had reservations about the Russian draft resolution on START since the Treaty was not yet completed, but Antonov underlined that such a resolution would be helpful to the RevCon. He noted Russian readiness to engage in discussing a compromise text, which could be adjusted in December once the Treaty was agreed. He claimed NAM as well as European support for such a resolution and asked for Washington to review the issue. U/S Tauscher emphasized the overall importance of building consensus in the UN First Committee, and that the Russian proposal would seem not to meet the end dates of the UNFC. She noted generally that any resolution should be timed to support START completion by December 5 and also to build greater support within the P5 and among other NPT members for a strong and productive RevCon. She noted that Russia and the U.S. shared the same overall goals and agreed to work with Russia to look for possible areas of commonality with regard to these issues. ¶22. (SBU) On the Nuclear Security Summit, Ryabkov described the Vienna meeting of sherpas, which had addressed issues including: a brief joint communique; a plan of action to annex to the communique; and preliminary Russian comments conveyed in Vienna. Ryabkov emphasized also the need to address now the question of participants; e.g., why had Georgia, which has no nuclear reactors, been invited while Armenia, which does, was not? U/S Tauscher noted support for a joint communique and plan of action, and said Georgia had successfully interdicted a nuclear smuggling operation on its territory. Ryabkov countered by asserting the Russian understanding that the Summit would not address contraband/smuggling issues. U/S Tauscher undertook to communicate these Russian concerns to White House planners and get back to Ryabkov. ¶23. (SBU) UNSCR 1540: Ryabkov recalled that in March 2009 FM Lavrov had proposed to the Secretary to have greater bilateral cooperation on 1540, including through a Clinton-Lavrov joint statement and a dedicated UNSC meeting. The U.S. response had seemed to reject this proposal, focusing instead on a more practical approach involving meeting with various organizations to discuss issues such as establishment of a 1540 trust fund and other topics. Russia understood this might not have been a fully coordinated U.S. position, however, and wished to reiterate that it remained prepared to act on its proposal and engage foreign ministers. Russia was concerned about a decrease in interest in 1540; during the recently completed Comprehensive Review, only three capitals (Vienna, Tokyo, and Moscow) had sent experts, and there were no representativ es from international agencies. Ministerial involvement seemed required to increase attention, such as had been done in the OSCE and G8. U/S Tauscher agreed on the general importance of engaging senior levels and publics on these important nonproliferation issues, which, although very technical, nevertheless require strong political will and support. Antonov also noted differences in focus, with the U.S. preferring lower level engagement through working groups to discuss nonproliferation problems such as working with industry to establish and enforce export controls. In this context he also opined that the U.S. view of "strategic goods" did not necessarily conform to others' views; for example, Russia saw the term as encompassing items such as grain, petroleum, wood, and gas, which should also be dealt with effectively through implementation of 1540. ¶24. (SBU) Civil Nuclear Cooperation: Ryabkov sought to confirm U.S. interest in bringing into force the bilateral treaty on civil nuclear cooperation ("123 agreement") as soon as possible. Recalling the recent visit of ROSATOM Director Kiriyenko and his meeting with Deputy Secretary of Energy Poneman, Ryabkov expressed surprise that there were difficulties relating to the 123 agreement, in developing the Action Plan that outlines specific projects that meet the presidential understandings of April and July 2009. Ryabkov asked the U.S. to put additional effort into bringing into force this important element of the bilateral relationship. U/S Tauscher noted she had accompanied Director Kiriyenko to Oak Ridge and was scheduled to meet with ROSATOM Deputy Director Spasskiy the following day. She cited many political issues relating to U.S. 123 agreements generally, not just with Russia. She promised to consult with Deputy Secretary Poneman in Washington and relay further information to Deputy ROSATOM Director Spasskiy. Tauscher also expressed U.S. support for the Russian proposal for a fuel reserve at Angarsk and hoped that Russia would make the final details available soon to enable us to help build support for approval at the IAEA's November Board of Governors meeting. She also shared the draft of a joint op-ed piece as discussed in London to express U.S.-Russia mutual support for fuel assurances and the Angarsk proposal, and welcomed Russian suggestions and edits. ¶25. (C) U/S Tauscher also noted that FBI Director Moeller would be bringing a sample of the smuggled HEU that was seized in Georgia in 2006 during his visit in mid-November. (Note: The material has remained in U.S. custody because we conducted the forensic analysis at the request of the Georgian Government. The Russians had requested a sample for analysis, but would not come to the U.S. to retrieve it. End note.) The fact that Director Moeller is bringing the sample to the Russians demonstrates U.S. commitment to working collaboratively with the Russians to investigate nuclear smuggling events. Ryabkov noted the logistical problems of the transportation of such items, but these were close to being decided. (Note: The transfer has been attempted and canceled twice before due to scheduling conflicts. End note.) Russia would be ready to discuss this with Moeller when he arrived. Ryabkov noted this was a difficult issue for Russia since there was no Russian translation for the term, "nuclear forensics." This was also an area that required further work with the IAEA to resolve its role and function in such cases. CFE ----- ¶26. (C) Recalling bilateral meetings on May 5 among many CFE participants and the June 10 Berlin Conference, Ryabkov noted that on many issues there had been no rapprochement; instead there was a fixation on what was not agreed. The Russian Federation was pushing for a package solution. Noting that the flank limits posed a major problem for the Russian side, he raised the possibility that Russia could move off the moratorium on implementation of the Treaty if some new agreements were achieved. He mentioned agreement on a definition for substantial combat forces and, linked with it, lower quota numbers for countries around the periphery of the CFE zone of implementation as being one way to proceed. He reiterated that the flank issue is major for Russia, but Russia does not want to find a solution at the expense of the NATO Allies. He said it was important to develop agreements which avoided delays and ambiguous interpretation. In Ryabkov's view, there should be lower levels of arms for NATO countries, which had received a "bonus" through enlargement. There should be an understanding of what was allowable in stationing forces. The flank restrictions were a problem. The unanticipated participation of new NATO members such as the Baltics and others was making the situation very difficult. The entry into force of the Adapted Treaty was a temporary solution or basis for further discussion, not a final resolution of the issue. ¶27. (C) State VCI Assistant Secretary Gottemoeller said the sides had had many creative discussions and had found some common ground. It was notable that the parallel actions package remained the agreed basis for discussions between Russia and NATO, but serious problems remained: 1) continuing Russian failure to implement the CFE Treaty, which causes both political and legal difficulties for NATO countries, and 2) Russian insistence on changing the Adapted Treaty before it is ratified (i.e., discarding the so-called flank regime). Gottemoeller commented that in recent bilateral discussions Russia and the United States had described some ideas that had common conceptual elements to them, such as trial implementation and provisional application. Therefore, she judged that there was some basis to develop common ground between the two sides, as long as Russia was not insisting on conditions that the NATO Allies cannot agree to. Ryabkov said Russia did not start out against the Treaty, but CFE was becoming increasingly unmanageable, especially because of NATO enlargement. Russia's proposed moratorium was a way not to torpedo CFE but a mechanism to resolve this in a mutually acceptable way. Russia wanted continued bilateral dialogue on this, as well as with other NATO Allies. ¶28. (C) Ryabkov emphasized that Russia supported a solution to the CFE impasse based on parallel actions, but that Russia would no longer accept delays in ratification or double interpretations of commitments. He outlined Russia's five areas of greatest concern that needed to be addressed in order to lift Russia's suspension and resume implementation: -- A lower level of armament limits for NATO countries to compensate for NATO enlargement. -- Stationing of troops in foreign countries. -- Abolition of the Flank restrictions. -- Participation of new NATO countries including the Baltic states. -- Entry into force of ACFE. ¶29. (C) Ryabkov stressed that Russia would not consider individual elements of the treaty separately, or consider a trial entry into force of ACFE on this basis. The solution was in parallel actions and Russia wanted an agreement with the United States on this, as well as with other NATO Allies. ¶30. (C) A/S Gottemoeller confirmed U.S. willingness to continue bilateral dialogue and also to discuss CFE in a small group format when appropriate, to address both timing and substance. She emphasized there was no attempt to limit discussions to bilateral format. START ----- ¶31. (C) Ryabkov said Russia was satisfied with the progress and dynamics of the negotiating process and noted work was progressing from discussion of the outlines of the follow-on Treaty to actual drafting. Russia would try to have a fully formulated document by December 5. The main provisions had been agreed but some difficulties on principles prevented resolution. Ryabkov urged that at this point the parties should not simply take the easiest route and also should not try to put aside the most difficult issues until the final stages. Time was short, and the future Treaty would require provisions on the interrelationship between strategic offensive and strategic defensive arms. This was currently in the preamble but should be addressed in the body of the Treaty. Second, there was a U.S. effort to exclude conventionally-armed ICBMs and SLBMs from the limitations of the Treaty, which, he claimed contravened the July 6 Joint Understanding signed by Presidents Obama and Medvedev. In addition, Ryabkov noted attempts to limit or place restrictions on mobile ICBMs produced in Russia; and imposition of a very rigid START-like monitoring system for Russian production facilities for new types of missiles. Ryabkov argued that the sides could not delay resolution of these issues. The delegations should discuss these issues in detail and resolve them. Ambassador Antonov concurred, noting the delegations were well-qualified to engage in such discussions and under clear presidential orders to try to conclude a Treaty by December 5. Antonov pledged that his team would do all it could to work productively with the American side. ¶32. (C) U/S Tauscher underlined the impressive qualifications of the team members on both sides. A/S Gottemoeller cited good working group dynamics among the negotiators but noted the need to accelerate the pace of work to reach agreement by December 5. The U.S. has agreed to accept Russia's more streamlined approach for a treaty with three tiers (the main treaty, protocol, and a detailed annex with procedures for inspectors or "inspection manual"). The Russian side has agreed to additional measures on verification and elimination measures proposed by the U.S. ¶33. (C) A/S Gottemoeller then noted that there were important areas that remained problematic. At the end of the last Geneva round both sides developed an agreed list of the ten outstanding priority issues for resolution. These included agreement on counting rules and on verification, where Russia proposed significantly lowering the number of inspections. Another fundamental issue was exclusion of several important prohibitions, including the ban on telemetry encryption - first agreed in the SALT II Treaty in the late 1970s - an important part of U.S.-Russian mutual legacy on arms control. Omission of such prohibitions could call into question whether the new treaty was, in fact, effective. A/S Gottemoeller said the sides agreed that the next round would be decisive and should include a stocktaking which would determine whether talks were in the endgame or whether more time would be needed. She noted that the U.S. team was now in place in Geneva for the duration of the negotiations. ¶34. (C) U/S Tauscher said that following the stock-taking, the sides should compare notes about what more is needed. She recommended aiming for agreement on the main Treaty elements by mid-November, to allow time for completion of drafting by December 5. She also recommended starting to consider options for a signing ceremony, such as venue, timing, and format. ¶35. (C) Ryabkov thanked the U.S. side for its very clear and precise ideas, which were useful and constructive. Russia was ready to be flexible, and Ryabkov suggested another meeting before December 5. Speaking personally since there had been no consideration yet in Moscow of signing details, Ryabkov thought a signing ceremony in Geneva as the negotiating venue might be most appropriate. Beyrle

Commissary, School Agencies Support Family Dining Day
"Since we're the food leader for the military, anything that has to do with family quality and family lifestyles and focuses on eating is a good thing for us to be involved in," said Bonnie Powell during a telephone interview with American Forces Press Service from her organization's headquarters at Fort Lee, Va.
DeCA will support and celebrate "Family Day - A Day to Eat Dinner With Your Children" Sept. 25, Powell said.
Children of families that regularly eat together are less likely to smoke, drink or use illegal drugs, according to the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse. Such children also get better grades.
Founded in 1992, CASA is a New York City-headquartered national organization that studies alcohol, nicotine, illegal and prescription drug addictions and other substance abuse in order to combat them.
CASA created Family Day in 2001 and President Bush supports the initiative each year. Last year, 1.3 million Americans pledged to have a family dinner.
"We'd like to see military active duty, retirees and Guard and reserve families double that amount," Defense Commissary Agency Director Patrick Nixon said in a recent DeCa news release.
The Department of Defense Education Activity is partnering with DeCA, Powell said, by encouraging its more than 200 stateside and overseas schools to team with local military commissaries to spread the word about Family Day.
"When parents and students dine together, they have an opportunity to discuss education and school issues," DoDEA spokesperson Frank O'Gara noted in the DeCA release.
"These discussions lead to greater parental involvement and interest," O'Gara continued, "and can go a long way in fostering success for all children."
The Coca Cola Company's military sales division, Powell said, is sponsoring a contest for a military family to win a trip to New York to experience a healthy dinner cooked up by famous chef Sandra Lee. Registration for the contest will be conducted throughout September on DeCA's Web site.
And, any Fisher House manager who plans family dinners for guests on Sept. 25 will receive $200 worth of donated commissary gift certificates, Powell said. Fisher Houses are comfort homes for military families to stay near loved ones undergoing treatment at military medical facilities.
The National Military Family Association recommends that children can do some commissary shopping for deployed military parents, Powell reported. Young family members, she said, can pick out a favorite food to send to an overseas-deployed parent.
The Defense Commissary Agency operates a worldwide chain of commissaries, providing groceries to military members, retirees, and their families in a safe and secure shopping environment. Authorized commissary shoppers can realize an average of 30 percent or more in savings compared to commercial prices. Officials say that equates to savings worth about $2,700 annually for a family of four.

Acappella Bengals is a registered home cattery located in Central Texas. Our goal is to raise Bengal cats and kittens with excellent markings and sweet temperaments. We desire to place beautiful Bengal kittens in loving homes where they will be an enrichment to the family. What is a Bengal Cat? Bengal cats are bred from crossing Asian Leopard cats to domestic cats. NO, they are not related to Bengal Tigers except by species name, Felis bengalensis. Bengal cats are neither large, wild nor dangerous. In fact, they are even-tempered, playful and affectionate pets. Their striking markings and velvet-soft pelts make them unique in the feline world.
What makes Bengal cats different from any other cat? The Bengal kitten's fur is as soft as velvet. In the quality cat, the tips of each hair is translucent, giving them a gold glitter. Sleek and athletic, like their ancestors, Bengal cats love high places and leap effortlessly to their perches. They are playful and very intelligent. Once you become familiar with bengal cats, you will see them everywhere-on commercials, in ads, on cards, in movies, TV shows, etc.Are they wild? No! Bengal kittens and cats are energetic and playful. Like dogs, they bond to their owners and usually come when you call them. Usually, they will stay close and follow you around the house. Bengal kittens and cats love to play in water and to be right with you wherever you are. Need help with those dishes? They are just a lot of fun. Michele says of her Bengal cat Sam, "He now fetches and will actually bring the object back to you. We have had so much fun doing that and laughing that a cat fetches." Thanks for the update, MicheleWhy is there a different price on your cats? The price depends on what you want. Do you want a pet? Or a breeder? Or a Bengal cat to show? We want your Bengal kitten to fit your life, family, and goals. Why are your cats more expensive than others? The quality of the Bengal kittens determines the price. There may be less expensive cats, but we work very hard to raise Bengal kittens that are healthy and very well socialized. Our quality Bengal kittens have outstanding markings for the breed. Things to look for include a break in the necklace around the neck, lots of glitter, black paws and black tip to the tail. Not all cats are the same quality or as socialized. We specialize in Bengal cats that are raised as part of the family. Wherever you buy your Bengal kitten, visit the cattery first!! Choosing your kitten based on price often leaves a dissatisfied buyer and a black mark against the name of Bengals. Please call and I'll be happy to explain why I say this.We invite you to browse our site and see our cats. Our desire is to provide a beautiful Bengal kitten with a sweet personality for your family. Thank you for coming!

Something I couldn't not do without at the pottery studio is my sketchbook – a record of glazes, processes, what works and what doesn't. I'm a big fan of keeping note and have got into the habit of making keys for colour and texture.
This is a colour wheel I made. I noted which colour is which, so if i find a shade/overlap of slip and glaze I love, I know what it is. Without this, I find it hard to choose which slips and glazes to use – they are stored in tupperware boxes, and the colour is written on the box but the wet slips only show their colour once fired – it's like a lottery unless you have a key.
Texture tests! I made this because I want to be adding more texture to things, and i want to be nimble about it, rather than having to wait to experiment with a texture – I did lots of texture experiments all at once, and laid out each texture tool next to the mark it made. I'll now print this pic out and wack it into my sketchbook.


text: One farmer said the co-operative had enabled himto feed and educate his family But now farmers in the highlands of Mbale, in eastern Uganda, who used to earn 40 US cents per kilogram, are earning four times as much thanks to co-operative movements such as Peace Kawomera, or "delicious peace". Peace Kawomera is an inter-faith coffee co-operative set up by J J Keki, a Jewish Ugandan farmer. Factbox: Major coffee producing countries:1 - Brazil2 - Vietnam3 - Colombia4 - Indonesia Major consumers: 1 - US2 - Germany3 - Brazil4 - JapanSteven Kabala, a farmer in the co-operative told Al Jazeera that because of fairer prices for his product he can now feed and educate his entire family - all of his 16 children. "I work in the co-operative and sell my crops through the co-operative," he said. "Through it I have managed to educate my children." He said the success was because small scale farmers had joined together to give them a unified voice in the global market. But it has been a slow and difficult process for the farmers to get value for their coffee, most of which is sold in the US. The US company buying their coffee has only given a three year guarantee of the price. Multinational companies almost completely control the global coffee market and are often accused of making huge profits, while the 25 million farmers who make their living from growing it, live in poverty. Coffee is the world's second most traded commodity and about 70 per cent of the world's coffee is still grown on small farms in Latin America, Africa and East Asia. SOURCE: Al Jazeera

There's really no way to accurately express this sentiment, but THANK YOU so much to everyone who was a part of this project. We really can't express how much it means to us that you were there.
There are a few people we specifically want to say thank you to, and also some information we want to provide since a lot of people asked questions about these things.
Thank you to the one and only Brooks Reynolds, who planned and filmed the whole thing, and his talented assistant Jesse Hunt. You guys were brilliant, and you looked adorable in your snow cone tanks.
This commercial would have not sounded the way it did, without the amazing Jeff Wynands of Other Songs Music Co. He wrote and recorded the amazing jingle that will be stuck in your head all summer. (Yay, it really works!)
Thank you to Kate and Liz, from Needlework, who played a leading role (and to Kate's pup, Peggy, too!). Follow along with their adorable fabric shop on Facebook and Twitter.
Thank you to Jared and Michelle, from Weenies, who also played a leading role and also served up amazing sausages at the end of the night. You can follow their hot dog cart on Facebook and Twitter!
A big 'thank you to the moon!' to all the amazing kids (and their parents!) who showed up early and did such a great job! While planning, we knew we needed a 'gaggle of children' and by golly we got QUITE the gaggle! You guys were naturals, and we're so glad you got to be a part of our commercial!
Special thanks to Erin (of Cake + Loaf fame) and Ceilidh for your makeup skills, and to Kevin Makins for your amazing energy, your herding skills and your super loud voice! Also, a huge thank you to Jon (trailer renovator extraordinaire) for understanding our time crunch and creating a temporarily adorable face for the trailer! There are a million other people we could thank, so please know that if you were involved in this commercial, some how, some way, we are SO super thankful for your efforts!
Lastly, a lot of people wondered how they could get their hands on some Sweet Ice memorabilia. We have tee's, tanks and totes which you can order online! Here's the link!

One of the reasons I decided to switch my website over to Blogger was because of the ease of embedding elements such as video here. Now that I can, I have updated this post by sharing the video I shot to accompany it. After all, it's not all the time we have the energy to read. If you'd rather read the post, please continue.
But before you do, let me reintroduce you to this topic: In this year's Golden Globes, Meryl Streep's acceptance speech for the Cecil B DeMille Award, which honoured her contribution to the world of entertainment can only be described as thunderous. She unleashed a storm over Trump's head by publicly admonishing him for his behaviour. But, what I took from her speech were the lessons in public speaking.
This week has been a remarkable one for famous speeches. Namely that of Meryl Streep and then of Barack Obama (which I am yet to listen to in full). But I'd like to pay attention the former, which we can all learn from.
On Monday Morning we woke up to the highlights from the Golden Globes.Many awards were given out and received but what probably took centre stage had to be Meryl Streep's acceptance speech* for the Cecil B DeMille award, which honoured her contribution to the world of entertainment. The storm she had cooked up was so thunderous that I had to watch her performance for myself.
She totally annihilated Donald Trump without so much as mentioning his name, and her delivery had all the grace of The Queen's Christmas speech. She basically twisted the knife in Trump's chest whilst fluttering her lashes at him, with Hollywood's elite and the world's media as witnesses!
Then I decided to have a little bit of fun, and pick out the main features that made her speech an unforgettable one.
These are lessons we can all learn for ourselves when giving our own speeches.
These are lessons we can all learn for ourselves when giving our own speeches.
1. Emotive language – this is language that appeals to your audience's emotions. For example "he really upset me", has a bit more feeling than "he caused me some offense". That is what makes the former emotive. When Meryl Streep used phrases such as "it broke my heart", she made and emotional connection with her listeners.
2. Solidarity with the audience – by featuring the likes of Viola Davis, Sarah Jessica Parker and Ruth Negga in her speech (who were all in the audience) and likening them with her, she created a sense of unity that extended itself to everyone else that was listening.
3. Story telling – besides solidarity, she told her story. "I was born and raised and created in public schools…" is a line that told her story. This is always a powrful tool and one that will always appeal to the human side of your audience. No matter the indusrty you're in.
4. Tone and rhythm – known as prosody amongst linguists and speech experts. Her outright disgust was measured by the calmness of her tone. There were times when she sounded like she was on the brink of tears. There were other times when she paused to allow the audience to laugh or clap. All these are features that make a speech interesting. Remember this when you delivered her own speech
5. Setting – or backdrop. She used a heavily televised and hugely popular event as her stage. Her subject, ie Donald Trump is a hot topic of the season. And of course, she IS Meryl Streep!
I hope you found these lessons useful. If you have enjoyed this post and would like to read more please subscribe here

|87 candles but how many others never saw another birthday?
Fidel Castro turned 87 years old today and the dictator's apologists are out in force celebrating on social media, but a question arises: How many people will never have another birthday thanks to Fidel Castro?
The founder of a dynastic dictatorship that ruled Cuba with an iron grip from 1959 until a health crisis forced the despot to turn power over to his brother Raul, informally in 2006 and formally in 2008.
The accurate body count after more than a half century remains unknown but partial counts place it in the thousands.
Add to this the failure of the regime on the health and hygiene front with mass deaths at a psychiatric facility and return of Cholera at levels not seen since the 19th century and the magnitude of the disaster begins to take shape.
Extrajudicial killings still take place but in Orwellian fashion are denied. Meanwhile nonviolent opposition leaders that could provide a soft landing die under extremely suspicious circumstances with the direct involvement of state security.
|Oswaldo Payá: Life cut short by Castro dictatorship
Cuba's Lech Walesa, Oswaldo Payá Sardiñas met with an "accident" on July 22, 2012 along with Harold Cepero, a youth leader from his movement. Evidence points to a state security vehicle crashing into the vehicle the dissidents were traveling in. More disturbing is the mounting suspicion that both men survived the accident and were killed afterwards. Over a year later and the families have still not been provided with the autopsy results.
Laura Inés Pollán Toledo, the women with the talent, courage, and popular support to be the next president of Cuba after being repeatedly roughed up, pricked with needles by regime agents became ill and died within the span of a week while under the guard of state security.
Internationally, the regime has been an ally to some profoundly loathsome regimes that have engaged and are engaging in genocide and some of whose leaders are now convicted war criminals on the lam.
The fact that some around the world who believe that the ends justify the means celebrate his example is disturbing especially when observing that not only where his means immoral and profoundly evil but the end result is a country that is an empty shell of what it was before the Castro brothers achieved power and the patterns of repression endure to the present day.
How many people will never have another birthday thanks to Fidel Castro? Too many.

Attorneys for a 66-year-old Texas death row inmate say his health problems make him unsuitable for lethal injection scheduled for this week so they're proposing he be rolled in his wheelchair in front of a firing squad or be administered nitrogen gas to cut off oxygen to his brain until he stops breathing.
If the state doesn't accept one of their alternatives, lawyers for confessed multiple killer and rapist Danny Paul Bible contend his lethal injection, set for Wednesday evening, should be halted because it would be unconstitutionally cruel and present a "substantial risk" of being botched due to his "unique constellation of medical issues."
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals refused the appeal Tuesday, affirming a decision from a federal judge in Houston last week.
Bible's attorneys said they would take the case to the U.S. Supreme Court.
State attorneys argued the civil rights lawsuit was a "meritless tactic" to delay his "well-deserved execution." Neither firing squad nor nitrogen gas are legal execution methods in Texas and the state Legislature isn't scheduled to meet again until next year. A handful of death penalty states allow nitrogen hypoxia, although the method hasn't been used. Three Utah inmates have been executed by firing squad, the most recent in 2010. Utah now allows that method if drugs for execution are unavailable.
No one is disputing Bible's guilt for a Houston slaying nearly 40 years ago that went unsolved for two decades before a jury convicted him of it and sent him to Texas death row.
Bible, a drifter with a record of violence in several states, would be the seventh convicted killer executed this year in Texas, equaling the state's total for all of 2017. He'd be nation's the 12th prisoner executed this year.
Bible's lawyers sought a reprieve, a restraining order and an injunction to block his execution, arguing Bible had no suitable sites on his body for IVs to deliver a lethal dose of the sedative pentobarbital and that severe tremors accompanying his Parkinson's disease would complicate insertion of IV needles. They also warned of a problematic execution like ones in recent years in Ohio and Alabama.
