Michelle Obama Hilariously Breaks Down Why Melania Trump's Inauguration Gift Exchange Appeared So Awkward
The former FLOTUS also explained to Ellen Degeneres how Barack stepped in and saved the day.
Charles Oakley needs to do what I often have wished Charles Barkley would do: Shut the heck up!
For I've tired of hearing retired stars like Oakley bemoaning how their sport has changed – how much lesser the NBA is in comparison to what the league was when they were playing.
"I don't know what it is," Oakley said the other day. "They just roll you out there like a basketball. That's why ... you see the same teams in the finals or winning 55 games. Strong teams, strong-minded coach. Just the players, they don't think it, they don't know how to play together.
"So that's one of things I see the weakness is: Communication, the guys don't love the game. They play the game, but they don't play with their heart."
How does a man judge who has heart? How does Oakley?
The game has a different feel to it since he bulldozed his way through defenders. The shooting is much straighter; and the NBA has eliminated the brutish play that defined the careers of Oakley, Barkley, Rick Mahorn, Bill Laimbeer, Anthony Mason and Moses Malone.
Did they have more heart than the players of today do? Or has the game really evolved since their goon days?
For the first question, I would answer "no." For the second, I would answer "yes."
Basketball today isn't as physical. The NBA game is more finesse and long-range shooting than it ever was when Oakley wore a NBA uniform.
As much as I enjoyed the brutishness of NBA yesteryear, I can't begin to compare play then with NBA play now.
Nobody back then could shoot off the dribble like Steph Curry, and I might even argue that only Michael Jordan could play the all-court game Oakley remembers. LeBron James, Russell Westbrook and James Harden can do so now, and they are better schooled than the stars were of Oakley's generation.
It would be silly, however, not to give Oakley's era its due. For the period allowed us to enjoy Allen Iverson, Karl Malone, Patrick Ewing and Barkley, players whose stardom defined the era more than pure heart ever could.
The game now has bruisers of its own. They might not be of the Oakley ilk, but they don't have to be. The game has changed since Jordan's Chicago Bulls reigned.
I should celebrate the reign of "Air Jordan," as I now celebrate LeBron's reign as the brightest star in the sport. I don't need two Charleses to share their nearsighted opinions of the league.
Still, I can't shake the feeling that Oakley wants the game to return to what it used to be.
It won't. The NBA has evolved in ways that Oakley's game could not have fit. The players today are leaner and more mobile, their shooting touch more deft than it was back in his days.
"Who do I like watching?" the gray-haired Oakley said. "It's hard to watch. I don't know; it's just a different game. It's some good games and a lot of bad games. More bad games than good games these days."
I guess Oakley forgot about some of the sorry games that NBA teams played when he was in the league.
But, hey, that's OK. I'll sit back and cherish the Technicolor moments that have pushed NBA officials to places they might not want to go. They don't want to go anywhere, however, with Oakley as the tour guide.
Basketball isn't mixed martial arts or the NHL, which is what it often looked like at times during his career. If that's what Oakley wants the NBA to be, he ought to stop watching the league.
For he won't see the league of his day no more than Jim Brown, Alan Page and Paul Warfield will see the NFL of their day. For that period, thankfully, is gone with the wind.

Dental Crowns and Bridges Fremantle
Restore your teeth with our professional dental reconstruction
Over the course of our lives, our teeth get damaged, suffer wear and tear, and are lost. This is unfortunate but thankfully, professional dentistry has a series of solutions to ensure that you can maintain the integrity, colour, and shape of your smile.
If you're looking for a permanent solution for dental challenges such as large fillings, missing or damaged teeth, or weakened tooth structure then we have just what you need. We provide dependable crowns and bridges. Dental crowns are designed to cater to individual teeth, whereas bridges are used in conjunction with a crown to replace a missing tooth or multiple teeth. Contact us today to book your consultation for dental reconstruction and take the most important step to restoring your oral health, hygiene, and appearance.
What is a Dental Crown?
A dental crown is a porcelain or metal tooth covering that is frequently used in dental reconstruction. The crown replaces a tooth's shape, function, and aesthetics and is used when teeth are broken down, weak, cracked, or have large fillings. Dental crowns help prevent teeth from fracturing, particularly when teeth have had a root canal treatment.
New materials and techniques mean that we can now provide dental crown fitting that closely matches the adjacent natural teeth. If you're looking for caps for your teeth, you've come to the right place.
The experienced and dedicated dentists of Fremantle Dental Care can create crowns that closely match the shape and colour of your original tooth, so the result is as natural looking as can be. What does this mean for you and your oral health? Not only does your appearance get enhanced, but the procedure of dental crown fitting also restores the tooth's strength, effectively providing you with a brand-new appearance, more comfort, and better functioning teeth.
What is a Tooth Bridge?
A tooth bridge is a fixed dental restoration procedure. It's a permanent solution that we offer to replace one or more missing teeth. There are different types of bridges, including some which require surrounding teeth to be prepared for a crown to carry the false tooth in a cantilever or fixed-fixed design. There are also variations where the false tooth is attached to a metal or white backing, which sticks to the back of the adjacent tooth. Teeth implants can also be used to bridge gaps, where there are no adjacent teeth present to attach to.
A bridge is anchored by two supporting teeth on either side so depending on the instance, the new tooth or teeth are comfortably fitted to the shape and contours of your mouth. We always strive for the same result we have achieved with countless clients and patients – the restoration of functionality, comfort, confidence, and your desired natural appearance.
- Enhance the aesthetics of your smile by matching the natural colour and texture of your teeth.
- Restoration of full dental function.
- Dental crowns help protect weakened teeth, making them last longer.
- A tooth bridge will close any existing gaps and ensure the distribution of pressure on your teeth is balanced and uniform.
- The balance brought on by dental bridges can also help improve the clarity of speech.
Book an appointment today and after a detailed assessment and consultation, we'll give you the advice and assistance you need.

When I applied a Genoma rig on a simple character, and tried to animate its arms, I noticed that I should have rotated the mesh of its forearm in the T-pose. Tried to create a pose with the elbows pointing to the ground and the thumbs pointing outside.
For a natural result in most common situations, should I modify the rig and mesh to thumbs forward, up, or rear?

Cabdullah Ciise. [Source: The Sun]Police raid the apartment of Cabdullah Ciise, an extremist based in Germany who is linked to hijacker Mohamed Atta and some of his associates in the Hamburg al-Qaeda cell. The police find forged Italian documents in the apartment, proving a link between Ciise in Germany and Italian cells that specialize in document forgery, especially one in Milan that is under investigation (see 1998 and October 2, 1998). Ciise lives in Germany from 1991 until October 1999, during which time he becomes friendly with Mohamed Atta as well as cell member Ramzi bin al-Shibh, with whom he often watches videos about the war in Chechyna and talks about religion. Ciise is also linked to other cell members such as Mohamed Daki and his associates Said Bahaji and Mounir El Motassadeq, as well as a Yemeni named Mohammed Rajih whom German authorities will investigate for terrorist ties at some point before 2005. It is unclear what impact the link to the important Milan cell has on surveillance of the cell in Hamburg. Ciise will allegedly be involved in a bombing in Mombasa, Kenya (see November 28, 2002), will help send fighters to Iraq, and will be arrested in Milan in 2003. [Vidino, 2006, pp. 256]

[Source: DDP / AFP]9/11 hijacker Ziad Jarrah has an unofficial wedding with his girlfriend, Aysel Senguen, on or shortly before April 1, 1999. They have a wedding ceremony at the radical Al-Quds mosque, but they do not register the wedding with the German government, so it is not legally binding. [McDermott, 2005, pp. 78] A photo apparently taken by Jarrah at the wedding will be found by German intelligence in Senguen's home several days after 9/11 (see Shortly After September 11, 2001). The photo will be studied to determine who was a member of or close to the al-Qaeda Hamburg cell in early 1999. German investigators are able to identify 18 out of 22 men in the photo. Those in the photo include 9/11 hijacker Atta, Abdelghani Mzoudi, Mounir El Motassadeq, Ramzi bin al-Shibh, Abderrasak Labied, and Mohammed Rajih. The LfV, the security service for the Hamburg region, will show such a surprising amount of knowledge of the people in the photo just days after 9/11 that it will later be suggested the LfV must have had an informant close to the Hamburg cell (see Shortly After September 11, 2001).

Shortly after 9/11, US investigators are finally able to access prisoner Zacarias Moussaoui's belongings. A German cell phone number is found in his address book. In Germany, cell phone buyers must present a passport or other official identification, so German police quickly discover that the number belongs to Karl Herweg of Dusseldorf, Germany. Looking at phone records, it is discovered that in the weeks before 9/11, Herweg called Mounir El Motassadeq, Zakariya Essabar, and Mohammed Haydar Zammar, all believed to be members of the al-Qaeda cell in Hamburg, Germany, along with a few of the 9/11 hijackers. Additionally, Herweg called "Mohammed R.," who remains publicly unknown but is believed to be a key 9/11 suspect. [Chicago Tribune, 2/25/2003] (Note that if this is the correct first name and initial, it could be a reference to Mohammed Rajih, a Yemeni whom German authorities will investigate for terrorist ties at some point before 2005, and who has links to some Hamburg cell figures—see 1998.) [Vidino, 2006, pp. 256] Herweg also called a satellite phone probably used by al-Qaeda leaders in Afghanistan. However, police learn that no one in Dusseldorf has the name "Karl Herweg." There is a couple living next door to the bogus address with the last name of Herweg, but they have no children and have never heard of any Karl Herweg. Police begin tapping Herweg's phone. But when no new calls are made or received by early November 2001, the surveillance is discontinued. However, phone records show that at least one call is made with the phone afterwards. Herweg's actual identity and his relationship to Moussaoui and the Hamburg cell will remain a mystery. In 2003, the Chicago Tribune will call Herweg "one of the most important figures in the continuing mystery that is Sept. 11." [Chicago Tribune, 2/25/2003]

Mohamed Atta has his hands on the shoulders of Mohammed Rajih in a portion of a 1999 group photo. [Source: DDP/ AFP]The Los Angeles Times reports that an al-Qaeda cell may still exist in Hamburg, Germany, and al-Qaeda sympathizers are threatening witnesses in a trial there. The CIA told the German government in late 2002 that it suspects an al-Qaeda cell is still present in Hamburg. It is known that a criminal investigation of at least eight suspected cell members is continuing in Germany. Mounir El Motassadeq is on trial for a role in the 9/11 plot. According to the Times, police have taped "telephone conversations of people—who never identify themselves—telling El Motassadeq's wife that they would give her money if she needs it, implying that El Motassadeq will be assisted as long as he remains quiet." One witness withdrew his statement to police after he was told he might need to testify publicly. Another witness named Shahid Nickels, who lived with hijacker associate Ramzi bin al-Shibh at one point, has told investigators that after 9/11, a man named Mohammed Rajih urged him to destroy any phone number or other contact information he might have for the Hamburg cell. Rajih soon moved to Morocco. He is suspected of being involved with the cell, and was under investigation even before 9/11. [Los Angeles Times, 1/30/2003] In 2009, a group of ten men who regularly attend the Al-Quds mosque in Hamburg—the same mosque attended by three of the 9/11 hijackers—will depart for militant training camps in Pakistan. One of the men, Naamen Meziche, will turn out to have been a member of the al-Qaeda Hamburg cell even before 9/11 (see March 5, 2009 and August 9, 2010).

The Bible readings for today …
Isaiah 53 Surely he has borne our infirmities and carried our diseases; yet we accounted him stricken, struck down by God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the punishment that made us whole, and by his bruises we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have all turned to our own way, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth. By a perversion of justice he was taken away. Who could have imagined his future? For he was cut off from the land of the living, stricken for the transgression of my people. They made his grave with the wicked and his tomb with the rich, although he had done no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth. Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him with pain. When you make his life an offering for sin, he shall see his offspring, and shall prolong his days; through him the will of the Lord shall prosper. Out of his anguish he shall see light; he shall find satisfaction through his knowledge. The righteous one, my servant, shall make many righteous, and he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore I will allot him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out himself to death, and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Hebrews 5 Every high priest chosen from among mortals is put in charge of things pertaining to God on their behalf, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. 2He is able to deal gently with the ignorant and wayward, since he himself is subject to weakness; 3and because of this he must offer sacrifice for his own sins as well as for those of the people. 4And one does not presume to take this honour, but takes it only when called by God, just as Aaron was. So also Christ did not glorify himself in becoming a high priest, but was appointed by the one who said to him, 'You are my Son, today I have begotten you'; as he says also in another place, 'You are a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchizedek.' 7 In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to the one who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. 8Although he was a Son, he learned obedience through what he suffered; 9and having been made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him, 10having been designated by God a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.
Mark 10 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came forward to him and said to him, 'Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask of you.' 36And he said to them, 'What is it you want me to do for you?' 37And they said to him, 'Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory.' 38But Jesus said to them, 'You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?' 39They replied, 'We are able.' Then Jesus said to them, 'The cup that I drink you will drink; and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized; 40but to sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared.' When the ten heard this, they began to be angry with James and John. 42So Jesus called them and said to them, 'You know that among the Gentiles those whom they recognize as their rulers lord it over them, and their great ones are tyrants over them. 43But it is not so among you; but whoever wishes to become great among you must be your servant, 44and whoever wishes to be first among you must be slave of all. 45For the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.'

A new retail report by CFI Group and Radial shows that online retailers should understand Big Spenders, customers who spend $500+ annually online with expectations for a smooth, well-integrated experience.
ANN ARBOR, Mich., August 2, 2018 – A CFI Group and Radial survey of 500 online retail customers shows that Big Spenders make up 39% of all retail eCommerce customers. These Big Spenders represent significant revenue for retailers, but retailers must be prepared to deliver a great experience for Big Spenders even as traffic surges during peak season.
"Scaling for peak season can be challenging for retailers," says Robin Gomez, Director of Data and Analytics for Radial. "Retail operations must be scalable to accommodate the large bursts of activity experienced during peak season, while delivering an experience that meets the high expectations of today's sophisticated online shopper. A clumsy online experience, delays in customer service response times, or inadequate customer support options can have a severe impact on sales and customer loyalty."
Retailers must understand Big Spenders and prepare to meet their expectations in three areas: an intuitive website experience, live agent interactions, and agent account access.
Big Spenders have high expectations for the online experience. They think that they should be able to handle the basics of eCommerce without the need to interact with a live agent.
For example, 61% of Big Spenders expect that an online order can be placed without needing to connect with customer service, compared to the 42% of Small Spenders who expect unaided eCommerce order placement.
Big Spenders expect to conduct common eCommerce activities independently without any difficulties. Only when they face an issue that is complex do Big Spenders prefer to interact with a live agent over an automated system.
For example, 50% of Big Spenders want a live agent over an automated system when resolving a billing inquiry, but only 16% prefer a live agent when needing help with placing an order.
Big Spenders are more experienced with eCommerce, so they are more likely to recognize
excellence in eCommerce customer service. Consequently, they tend to have high expectations
for the information and systems the agents can access.
For example, 83% of Big Spenders expect the agent to see a personal order history, compared
to just 58% for Small Spenders.

It was one of you my Aviator, who sugested me this special technique to relax easily. You probably know the difficulty to take a little time out during the day. I like to go for a short nap to recharge my batteries, but most of time I find it hard to get some rest and to fall asleep quickly. The 4-7-8 breathing technique, also known as "relaxing breath," helps me to reduce anxiety and clears my mind to fall asleep quicker.
What is the 4-7-8 breathing technique?
The 4-7-8 breathing technique involves breathing in for 4 seconds, holding the breath for 7 seconds, and exhaling for 8 seconds. The scientific reasearch on this method is limited, but there is enough evidence (including me) that this type of deep, rhythmic breathing is relaxing and may help ease people into sleep. Sometimes I get to sleeep within in minutes. In this article I will show you how to relax with your breathing.
Check out my YouTube channel PilotPatrick for more exciting videos about my trips around the world!
What are the benefits?
Apart from reducing anxiety and falling asleep, the 4-7-8 breathing technique has other benefits. Dr. Andrew Weil teaches this breathing technique, which he belives can help with the following:
- reducing anxiety
- helping a person get to sleep
- managing cravings
- controlling or reducing anger responses
How to relax with your breathing
- Get into a comfortable sitting position or laying position
- Place the tip of the tongue on the tissue right behind the top front teeth
- Empty the lungs of air
- Breathe in quietly through the nose for 4 second
- Hold the breath for a count of 7 second
- Exhale forcefully through the mouth, pursing the lips and making a "whoosh" sound, for 8 seconds
- repeat the cycle up to 4 times
Dr. Weil recommends using the technique at least twice a day to start seeing the benefits sooner. In the beginning you should avoid doing more than four breath cycles in a row until you have more practice. The longer and more frequently you use the technique, the more effective it becomes.
Is there an App?
Of course. There is an App for everythinh. For example, Breathe is a free app for Apple products, which helps you to practice the 4-7-8 breathing technique You can also set reminders to use it regularly during the day.
I have been you using this breahting method regulary for a couple of months. Especially during and after stressfull days it helps me to fight anxiety and to relax. I hope you enjoyed my tip how to relax with you breathing. Give it a try yourself and profit form the benefits.
What kind of technique do you use to relax. Let me knwo and comment below!
Safe travels and happy landings
Your PilotPatrick

Steeltech, Ltd. v. EPA
ELR Citation: 32 ELR 20333
Nos. No. 00-2008, 273 F.3d 652/(6th Cir., 11/28/2001)
The court affirms an administrative law judge's (ALJ's) use of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act's (EPCRA's) enforcement response policy (ERP) in assessing penalties against a metal manufacturer for failure to file timely reports regarding its processing of toxic chemicals. The court first holds that the ALJ's assessment of civil penalties against the manufacturer under the ERP was neither arbitrary nor capricious. The ALJ understood that the ERP was only a policy, not a rule, and that it had discretion to depart from the ERP if there was reason for doing so. The ALJ also gave detailed reasons for applying the ERP in this case and correctly concluded that the manufacturer's lack of culpability was not a reason for departing from the ERP-recommended penalty, especially given the strict liability nature of EPCRA. Further, the ALJ's comment that there were no extraordinary circumstances in the case that would suggest deviation from the ERP does not indicate that the ALJ applied too exacting a standard for deviating from the ERP. The ALJ's statement that the case does not involve extraordinary circumstances must be read as meaning only that this case does not present circumstances that raise policy issues not accounted for in the ERP, and, thus, that departure from the ERP is not warranted. The court also holds that the record fully support the ALJ's factual determination. The manufacturer misconstrued the substantial evidence standard of review in arguing that the ERP should not have been applied. The manufacturer argued that there was substantial evidence on the record to support its position that the ERP should not have been applied at all, rather than challenging specific factual determinations in the record. Under the substantial evidence standard, the court's review of the ALJ's factual determinations is limited to deciding whether those determinations are supported by substantial evidence on the record as a whole—not whether there was substantial evidence in the record for a result other than that arrived at by the ALJ is affirmed.

9.3: The Budgeting Process
- Page ID
- 888
Skills to Develop
- Understand the process used to establish budgets.
Question: Some companies prefer to take a "top-down" approach to budgeting, in which upper management establishes the budget with little input from other employees. These budgets are imposed on the organization and do little to motivate employees or to gain acceptance by employees. What method of budgeting is more effective than the top-down approach?
- Answer:
Successful companies approach budgeting from the bottom up. This requires the involvement of various employees within the organization, not just upper management. Lower-level employees often know more about their functional areas than upper management, and they can be an excellent source of information for budgeting purposes. Although getting input from employees throughout the organization can be time consuming, this approach tends to increase employee motivation and acceptance of the budget.
Most organizations have a budget committee that supervises the budgeting process. A budget committee3 is a group within the organization responsible for overseeing and approving the master budget. A master budget4 is a series of budget schedules outlining the organization's plans for the upcoming period (typically for a year and presented in monthly or quarterly time periods). The master budget can take many different forms but often includes schedules that provide planning for sales, production, selling and administrative expenses, and capital expenditures. These schedules lead to the budgeted income statement, cash flows, and balance sheet (also part of the master budget).
Figure 9.1 shows the components of the master budget with references to the figure in which we present each component for Jerry's Ice Cream.
Figure 9.1 - Master Budget Schedules
a See Figure 9.3 for the sales budget.
b See Figure 9.8 for the selling and administrative budget.
c See Figure 9.4 for the production budget.
d See Figure 9.5 for the direct materials purchases budget.
e See Figure 9.6 for the direct labor budget.
f See Figure 9.7 for the manufacturing overhead budget.
g See Figure 9.10 for the capital expenditures budget.
h See Figure 9.9 for the budgeted income statement.
i See Figure 9.11 for the cash budget.
j See Figure 9.12 for the budgeted balance sheet.
Some companies take a top-down approach to budgeting (upper management establishes the budget with little input from others), while other companies take a bottom-up approach (lower level employees are involved in the budgeting process). The bottom-up approach tends to be more effective as employees are more inclined to accept the budget. Regardless of the approach used, the budget committee (made up of a group within the organization) is responsible for overseeing and approving the master budget.
- What is a master budget?
- Why do successful companies tend to use the bottom-up approach to establish a master budget?
- Answer:
- A master budget is a series of budget schedules outlining the organization's plans for the upcoming period, typically prepared monthly, quarterly, or annually. The master budget includes budgets for sales, production, operating expenses, and capital expenditures. Managers use this information to create budgeted financial statements (income statement, cash flows, and balance sheet).
- The bottom-up approach requires involvement of employees throughout the organization, not just upper management, to create the operating budget. Successful companies use this approach because lower-level employees tend to know more about their functional areas than upper management, providing for more accurate budget information. Also, employee involvement in the budget process increases the likelihood employees will accept the budget.
- A group within the organization responsible for overseeing and approving the master budget.
- A series of budget schedules outlining the organization's plans for the upcoming period.

Nerina Parr and Cathy Biggle, in East Sussex Adult Social Care are looking at work resilience for AMHPs (Approved Mental Health Professionals). They are exploring whether investing in the emotional resilience and wellbeing of AMHPs by training them in evidence based strategies and techniques will affect their wellbeing.
The project started with looking at evidence from Research in Practice on resilience in social work. So far the team have talked about peer coaching and seeking the right kind of help. They have also started to explore resilience in preparation for assessment and post assessment.
The next step is to develop a workshop that encourages AMHPs to use a range of strategies and techniques to improve their resilience. This will be followed up with a focus group 2/3 months later to establish what helped and what didn't. If successful then it is hoped that training can be developed for other practitioners.
"It's been fascinating to unpick what people actually mean when they say 'I'm stressed' so we can really develop some practical solutions to build resilience."

Internet providers will be required to give access to communications in real time to GCHQ.
In planned legislation, this will allow the government to be able to monitor the calls, emails, texts and website visits of everyone in the UK.
The new powers are expected to be announced in the Queen's Speech in May and would not allow GCHQ to access the content of emails, calls or messages without a warrant, according to BBC News. Any new law would have to make it through Parliament potentially in the face of opposition in both the Commons and the Lords.
The plan has caused outrage among civil-liberty groups, with Big Brother Watch calling it "an unprecedented step that will see Britain adopt the same kind of surveillance seen in China and Iran".
Shami Chakrabarti, director of Liberty, told BBC News that this was "more ambitious than anything that has been done before" and was "a pretty drastic step in a democracy".
Jim Killock, executive director of the Open Rights Group, said: "Of course the security services should be able to get a warrant to monitor genuine suspects, but blanket collection, without suspicion, or powers to compel companies to hand over data on the say-so of a police officer would be very wrong.
"The saga of [alleged] complicity between senior police officers and Murdoch's journalists should tell us how vulnerable people's privacy can be. The government should stand by the commitments both [coalition] parties made before the election to protect our privacy."
A Home Office statement said: "It is vital that police and security services are able to obtain communications data in certain circumstances to investigate serious crime and terrorism and to protect the public.
"As set out in the Strategic Defence and Security Review, we will legislate as soon as parliamentary time allows to ensure that the use of communications data is compatible with the government's approach to civil liberties."
Rik Ferguson, director of security research and communication at Trend Micro, originally blogged on the topic in February, when he mentioned that a planned implementation of the EU directive on data retention among ISPs from 2009 was eventually shelved due to a lack of public support.
He said: "The Home Office insists that this information is vital for fighting crime and terrorism; but is this legislation really going to be effective against the people at whom it is supposedly aimed?
"If national governments and law enforcement organisations truly believe that online criminals and international terrorists don't know how to hide their online traces, then we have a bigger problem than we thought (sending an encrypted email with spoofed sender address from an internet café is only lesson one)."
Talking to SC Magazine, Ferguson said that this was "less a slippery slope and more a vertical drop off a cliff", pointing to how easily the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 was abused for freedom of information.
He said: "You also have to look at the budget for the new UK Cyber Crime Strategy and balance it against the cost of this and consider what the volume of data will be, not to mention the storage and implementation of technology across various places.
"My personal view is that finance could be better allocated, and if we want to take cyber crime seriously, we have got to take spending on capabilities seriously. If you have concerns you have got to talk to your MP and make your views known. What is important is that we have no idea what the details of this will be."

Making healthy school lunches can help get and keep your kids on track to healthier living and learning.
As back to school time approaches, anticipation of that first bell ringing compares to the ball dropping on New Year's Eve. It represents a time to reevaluate routines and reorganize schedules. Plus, it's time to restock – school supplies, clothing and fridges.
Why is packing healthy school lunches so important?
Especially for families with two working parents, why is packing healthy school lunches so important? After all, schools offer a lunch program. And that makes one less task on the to-do list.
Packing healthy school lunches:
- can and should be better for your kids' health and immune systems.
- gives you a truer picture of and peace of mind about what they actually ate (versus what they took or what they were served).
- helps support healthier energy and attention levels so your kids can learn and store information more naturally. Less healthy lunches or snacks contain lots of carbs, gluten, corn syrup, additives, food dyes (yellow 5, blue 1, red 1, etc.) or genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Many of these ingredients have been linked to issues such as difficulty concentrating, aggressive or hyper behavior and even chronic sinus problems. Read my blog, "Are food allergies and behaviors linked?" or my book for lots more information about this.
- allows a more diverse menu, with input from your kids.
- may inspire you to do the same for yourself.
I dream of eventually writing about all the goodness of school-provided lunches. And some schools and food service providers have taken decent strides. But they still generally load our kids full of carbs, dyes and GMOs. So for now, I'd rather take on the task of packing lunches for my kiddos, even when the school-provided lunches are free.
What are some new and easy ideas for healthy school lunches?
First, let go of any preconceived notions! Healthy school lunches:
- do not have to be the ideal temperature.
- do not have to be standard lunch fare.
- should not include a treat. Save that for dinner, if at all, when he or she is not going to be confined to a classroom setting and expected to learn!
- only contain "weird" food if you act like they do (imagine any exchange of words or facial expressions here if packing lima beans or soup that's not warmed, as an example).
Second, work with your kids to make a menu or list of options so they have vested interest. Try new recipes together and have fun with it.
And of course, organic is best, especially when serving any of the Big Four GMO crops (corn, soy, canola oil and cottonseed oil).
Here are some ideas to help get you started.
Main entrée
• organic deli meat roll-ups
• organic deli meat wrapped in lettuce (add your fave sandwich toppings)
• paleo chicken salad (just Google for many recipes) in lettuce wrap or bowl
• leftover dinner in a wrap (or unwrapped and yes, even cold)
• meals in a muffin
• eggs (hard-boiled, deviled paleo style or as muffins)
• fish cakes or crab cakes
• organic nitrate-free sausage or bacon with paleo pancakes
(Always include at least 1 veggie and aim to make 50% of his/her food veggies.)
• raw veggies – carrots, peppers, sprouts, radishes, sweet potatoes, celery, snap peas, broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini or
cucumber slices topped with your favorite meat, cheese, dip, raisins, etc.
• dips – cauliflower hummus, guacamole, hummus, nut butter (almond, cashew, sunflower if tree nuts are OK at school)
• yogurt – coconut milk yogurt if avoiding dairy; no added sugar, sugar substitutes or aspartame
• nuts or seeds, paleo snack bites or bars
• chips – kale, sweet potato, root vegetable, apple
• fruits – applesauce, tomatoes, bananas, grapes, pineapple, oranges, etc. (as a side or snack but remember that fruits
are best digested solo – or with about 15 minutes of separation from other foods)
If you want to go for extra credit in healthier living, pack your lunches-to-go and water in stainless steel containers from LunchBots, PlanetBox or other brands. They cost more but last longer than plastic. They don't leach chemicals into food and they don't create more waste. The kids think they're pretty fun, too!
So make it a priority today to eat better because ultimately it can help you learn better, sleep better and live happier. And the more urgent you make it, the stronger the example you're setting to help keep your kids on a healthy track longer. Take some time. And have some fun planning healthy school lunches or lunches for work as your family heads back to school!

Audit critical of S.F. water pricing / East Bay, Peninsula overpayments said to total $27 million
The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission has overcharged water users on the Peninsula and in the East Bay tens of millions of dollars since 2000 for water improvement projects, a city audit released Wednesday found.
The audit says customers outside San Francisco will, by June, have paid $27 million more than they should have, and it recommends a 30 percent rate reduction in their bills for one year beginning in July to make up for the overcharges.
The utility, however, claims that the actual overcharges are much lower and that a 10 percent rate reduction would suffice to make up the difference.
The audit said customers in the 26 cities, water districts and private utilities in Alameda, Santa Clara and San Mateo counties that buy water from San Francisco paid $15 million more for water than they should have in 2003-04 and a cumulative $27 million since 2000.
Severin Campbell, audit manager for the Board of Supervisors budget analyst, which prepared the audit, said her staff worked with revenue projections provided by the agency about six weeks ago. "Projections can change in a six week time period. But that's part of our problem with the PUC," Campbell said. The overcharges came largely because the utility wrongly billed customers outside San Francisco for construction projects that had not yet been built, according to the audit, which says the utility is not supposed to charge for construction until it's completed.
Overcharges and sometimes undercharges are not unusual. The next year's rates are typically adjusted to make up the difference. But since 2003, the numbers have been way off.
Compared to the $4 million overcharge in 2002-03, for example, a $15 million overcharge is "a big deal," said Art Jensen, general manager of the Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency, an agency representing customers outside San Francisco.
The inch-thick audit was the third in a series of four audits of the utility by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors' budget analyst, that have concluded that poor financial planning and management resulted in overcharges in the suburbs and some undercharges in the city.
The report, requested last year by the Board of Supervisors, also issued a sharp warning to the utility to not waste voter-approved bond money as the Public Utilities Commission begins the $4.3 billion reconstruction of the century-old Hetch Hetchy water delivery system, which draws from a reservoir in Yosemite National Park and provides drinking water for 2.4 million Bay Area residents.
"The money could be eaten away by interest expenses and delay," said Ken Bruce, a senior manager in the budget analyst office.
The audit prompted a call from users outside San Francisco for better oversight.
"During these tough budget times there has to be greater accuracy in the billing projections by the PUC, and I would expect a higher level of accountability," said San Mateo County Supervisor Mark Church.
"Perhaps the time has come for a regional water board where all water users would have a direct voice in the management of SFPUC operations," Church said, echoing a long-standing argument among suburban leaders.
Among the audit's other findings: By not spending construction funding in a timely manner, the utility had to pay more in interest and faced higher costs on materials because of inflation.
The utility loses an estimated $910,000 a year in water and sewer rate revenues from San Francisco customers, partly because the city hasn't completed replacing aging water meters that measure water flow by an estimated 2 percent less than the actual flow.
The utility is losing money on a water conservation program that gave a discount to customers who signed an affidavit saying they installed low-flow fixtures. It turns out that average water use by these customers is comparable to people who didn't sign.
Treasure Island, the former naval base that will be conveyed to the city soon, owes $1.3 million in unpaid water bills. The utility has up to 20 possible surplus properties that if sold could be worth more than $120 million money that could help reduce the water customers' cost of the Hetch Hetchy reconstruction.
Susan Leal, appointed general manager of the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission last summer, said she welcomed the critical audit.
"My goal here is to shake some things up and get this place working right," Leal said. "So any suggestions we can get, we are very happy to get that information and implement those recommendations."
These findings come one day after the Public Utilities Commission voted to raise water and sewer bills in the city over the next two years to pay for system improvements. Suburban customers also will face water rate increases in the near future to cover their share of construction.
A Board of Supervisors committee will hold a public hearing at 1 p.m. Monday at San Francisco City Hall to review the audit.

The Public Realm in Resilient Communities: Alec Hay at CSLA 2014 Congress
Our good man Alec Hay is getting set to blow away another audience with his visionary approach to resilience design. Check out the abstract for his upcoming presentation with fellow DIALOGer Gail Shillingford at the Canadian Society of Landscape Architects 2014 congress in Ottawa.
"Our world is changing. Extreme weather events are becoming more severe and more frequent, while at the same time demographic and socio-economic trends are placing greater emphasis on how we develop our cities over the next generation. Success will be defined by how we plan, design and manage the public realm. Never before has it been so important. It is not possible to confidently predict the severity of extreme weather events in 25 years' time and so we must focus on how we adapt, absorb and recover from the effects. Adaptation is only part of the answer. We must manage this change, rather than deny or harden against it. This is resilience planning, identified by the UN as pre-requisite for sustainable development. Of the essential characteristics common to all communities that have proved to be resilient, community focus and identity are the primary enablers and most influenced by the public realm. This research by University of Toronto also identified balanced infrastructure and a strategic framework of relationships between communities. Landscape architects have a pivotal role to play in planning and designing the public realm. It must not only promote safe and healthy living during normal routine, but it must absorb the effects of the multiple changing stresses and enable community response and recovery during and following a shock. The multiple requirements on the public realm are expanding and becoming more important as we move into the future; the consequences of inadequate design are ever greater."
About the presenters: Alec Hay, CEng PEng FICE FInstRE is the Resilience & Security Planning leader at DIALOG, joining the Toronto studio early 2013. A Chartered Civil Engineer, he specialised in fortifications and infrastructure development during a 25 year career in the British Army, practising around the world variously as client, consultant and contractor. This encompassed both physical protection design and community development and reconstruction. Projects include the 68km humanitarian relief road in Bosnia, infrastructure development in Belize and Gibraltar, protection design in Northern Ireland and Southern Iraq, NATO estate development planning in Afghanistan and lead for the $1.2Bn UK infrastructure development plan in Afghanistan, for which he was awarded the MBE. An adjunct professor at the University of Toronto, where he is progressing research into infrastructure and community resilience, he was the founding director of the Centre for Resilience of Critical Infrastructure and is Secretary of the international Register of Security Engineers and Specialists. He is a professional reviewer and Fellow of the Institution of Civil Engineers and the Institution of Royal Engineers. He is a licensed Professional Engineer in Ontario and Alberta.
Gail Shillingford, BLArch OALA is an Associate Urban Designer at DIALOG. Her expertise in community based planning and the development of healthy public realm environments stems from having a strong background in urban design, planning, and landscape architecture. This combination provides her with a broad understanding and working knowledge of the frameworks of master planning, and has enriched her expertise in the design of significant and award winning urban environments that are based on a comprehensive integration of built form, open space, movement, and sustainability systems. Gail studied in Toronto and Alberta, and has provided professional expertise to clients in Canada, the United States, and the Caribbean. Throughout her 17 year career as an urban designer, her efforts have been to advance the role of the landscape architect in the creation of complete and sustainable communities and open space environments, focusing on expanding the role and significance of the public realm in each context. Projects include the University of Calgary's West Campus Lands, which entail the development of a complete, viable, and sustainable community. She is also working with the Town of Tecumseh on the development of three significant projects: a Hamlet Secondary Plan, the rejuvenation of the Tecumseh Road Main Street Corridor in the context of a Community Improvement Plan, and the transformation of 65 acre golf course into a community park and regional amenity. Other significant award winning projects include the National Park Master Plan and Physical Development Plan for the island of Barbados, the University of Toronto Open Space Master Plan, the development of three distinct campuses for Seneca College, and the establishment of a Heritage Conservation District in Woodbridge, Vaughan.

57,705 Queensland men and women enlisted during the First World War, and approximately 10,000 never returned home.
With its quiet and ambient soundscape, the World War I Memorial Crypt is a place of peaceful reflection. Its walls contain ornate memorial plaques which commemorate the fallen and honour the service and sacrifice of Queensland-associated battalions, regiments and other units.
A video wall on the left as you enter the Crypt focuses on the war as it was experienced at home. Over one hundred images feature recruitment, enlistment and training of Queenslanders who responded to the call. Other images depict family groups, or groups of dedicated volunteers who pitched in to support the war effort.
Along one wall of the Crypt are two touchscreens. The first links the adjacent memorial plaques to their unit histories, and enables visitors to explore the stories of these units from their landing in Egypt, to the shores of Gallipoli, and on to Europe.
The second touchscreen highlights twenty-one men and women whose stories represent the experiences of almost 60,000 Queenslanders who served in the War. Their photographs, letters, diaries and souvenirs vividly describe their experiences and serve as a lasting testament to their courage and sacrifice.
Other Memorial Galleries
Your passage through history continues inside the World War II Gallery, where visitors can explore the Queensland war experience and collection items on large interactive touchscreens, and take the time to view the plaques honouring a range of battalions.
In this gallery you'll hear more about Queensland's role during times of war and peacekeeping, see how regional Queensland commemorates Anzac Day and view plaques from post-WWII battalions. Take the time to leave a message to the fallen.

Open the Navigation Management window, which can be used to view the full current branch of the menu tree, and edit it.
I stopped using a newly opened large tube of Windsor and Newton titanium white that I had on hand because it contained "a small amount of zinc" according to the manufacturer. I suspect there is a growing amount of zinc containing paint being abandoned. Obviously, pure zinc white is disocuraegd but it would be great if there was some sort of guidance as to how much zinc is acceptable in a multi-pigment colour. In medicine there is an expression that goes something like "the dose makes the poison". Similarly, I expect that a very small amount of zinc isn't going to cause a problem but I haven't seen any research or guidance as to just what that maximum tolerance for zinc is. Is there any current guidance on this or research that you know of under way to clarify this issue?
Yes unfortunately this is an issue that will continue to plague those who paint in oils/alkyds until more research can be performed. FYI if you enter "zinc" in our search field you will earlier threads where folks have expressed the same concerns. I am sad to state that in conversing with some paint manufacturers recently, percentages of zinc even below 15% in oil paints are showing an increase in brittleness and a propensity for cracking. If you do choose to use paints with zinc in them it is best to stick with rigid supports. I will paste one of my previous responses from one below:"
But certainly issues have been observed even when zinc white is mixed together in small quantities with titanium or lead (studies performed by Marion Mecklenburg, published in 2008). However, I am also one to state that in conservation we are very prone to basing everything on one single study, which from a scientific standpoint is not always the best approach. This is mostly due to the fact that we have limited resources (meaning funding) as a field. Studies focusing on zinc white need to be repeated in order to truly confirm some of these findings (not that I disagree with them outright by any means). That being said there are really no "best painting practices" alternatives at the moment...until the paint industry and/or conservators and scientists are able and/or willing to perform additional tests we will simply have to wait. For the moment a good rule of thumb regarding zinc white is the less you use the better....but if that is not a good solution you can also simply record your use of zinc white and other materials on the reverse of your painting. This will give future conservators the information they will need when addressing how best to care for your painting should future issues arise (and if your painting is professionally executed and well cared for there may not be any issues!)."
Thanks as always, K. I did do a search on zinc but didn't find anything on specific precentage allowances of zinc in mixtures ... so your answer was pretty much as I expected. If I ever win a lottery grand prize I'll consider funding some art material studies so we can get more definitive answers on questions like this. :-)

Residence hall living, a vital component of the Gettysburg Experience, is intended to facilitate the personal growth and development of each student. At "home" in the residence halls, students make friends, attend classes, study, learn, relax and have fun. Recognizing the influence of the environment on development, Gettysburg College requires all students (unless married or residing with their families) to live on campus. All first-year students are housed in two residential quads.
Housing Assignments
Housing assignments for first-year students are based on First-Year Seminar (FYS) placements. Students in each seminar are housed within the same residence hall. As all first-year halls offer similar accommodations and due to the focus on placement by FYS course, students may not request a specific hall assignment, nor may they request a roommate.
First-Year Living
Find out more about the residence halls and first-year living.
Building Community
The residential life program is designed to provide students with the opportunity to learn about themselves, others, and how to be engaged citizens on campus.
First-year students work closely with professional and student staff to develop vibrant communities and to capitalize on the "teachable moments" that emerge through the residential experience. The First-Year Learning Plan is intended to prepare students to be active leaders who take purposeful action in service of the community.
Residential Life Coordinators (professional staff members) and student staff members known as Resident Assistants (RAs) support students' development as self directed young adults who are able to take personal responsibility over all dimensions of their lives. Student learning occurs through students' active decision making and engagement in the campus community, both in and out of the classroom.
RAs serve as a front-line resource for first-year students as they transition to college. RAs facilitate roommate agreements, provide guidance, lead community meetings, and conduct focused conversations with residents called GChats.

Countdown to the Salt Lake Olympics
OLYMPIC UPDATE: Tickets to see some top music acts during the Olympics are free, but that hasn't stopped scalpers from trying to make a profit. One ticket to see the Dave Matthews Band at the Olympic medals plaza sold for $153 on Internet auction site eBay last week. A different musical act performs each night between Feb. 9-24. Olympic officials say admission is free, but spectators need a ticket to get inside the open-air plaza. The tickets were handed out at grocery stores around Salt Lake City. Now, the "free" tickets are fetching between $50 and $100, sometimes more.
MARCH TO THE MEDALS: U.S. Olympic speedskater Chris Witty has mononucleosis, which she says accounts for her flagging performance lately. Witty withdrew from the world sprint championships in Norway on Friday after learning of the test results. She hopes to recover before the Olympics, having qualified to compete in the 500, 1,000 and 1,500 meters.
CARRYING THE TORCH: The Olympic flame tours Lake Tahoe on Sunday and returns to Squaw Valley, site of the 1960 Winter Games. The torch starts the day in Carmichael, Calif., then travels through Heights, Truckee and Olympic Valley before heading into Nevada at Incline Village. It ends the day back in California, at South Lake Tahoe.
