Instead of conducting an immediate vote on impeaching the president, House Republicans are now planning to forward an impeachment resolution against Vice President Joe Biden to two committees in an effort to de-escalate the tensions that have arisen within their party.
On Thursday, the House will vote on whether or not to forward a resolution that was presented by Representative Lauren Boebert, a Republican from Colorado, to the committees on Homeland Security and the Judiciary. The Republicans will be able to escape, at least for the time being, a messy struggle that was already dividing the party if they decide against holding the vote on impeachment.
In a closed-door meeting earlier in the day, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., urged rank-and-file Republicans to oppose Boebert’s resolution, arguing that such an important issue should go through the committee process. Three GOP sources who heard the comments confirmed that the House Rules Committee advanced the plan in a meeting late Wednesday night after huddling with McCarthy.
Instead of having to cast a vote to table, or kill, the resolution, Republican lawmakers who didn’t think it was appropriate to impeach President Joe Biden will now be able to vote to send Boebert’s resolution to committees for further work. Doing so would have made some Republican lawmakers politically vulnerable in the 2024 primaries.
McCarthy responded to the question of why he wanted to move forward with the resolution in this manner by telling the reporters, “I think it’s best for everybody.”
As Boebert was leaving the chamber, she addressed the press and said, “A sophomore in Congress just forced the House of Representatives to do their job.”
“I have no problem with the procedure that is taking place…The legislator was serving his second term when he made his statement. “If we send this to that committee, then yes, we are forcing the committee to do the work of impeaching Joe Biden,” the lawmaker added.
When asked about McCarthy’s remark behind closed doors that it could be premature to bring an impeachment resolution straight to the floor, Boebert responded, “I think there’s nothing premature about it. There’s nothing wrong with moving forward with it.” Since the beginning of this Congress, when we got control of the gavels, we should have been working on impeachment, but I didn’t see any progress in the committees on that front. Therefore, in order to compel action, I presented my privileged resolution to the floor of the assembly. And it would appear that nothing takes place in Washington, D.C. without the use of some sort of coercion.
Through the presentation of a privileged resolution, Boebert was in a position to compel an impeachment vote on the floor of the House. On Thursday, as is required, the House of Representatives will still take action on the resolution, but they will vote on whether or not to submit it to legislative committees.

The Battle of the Bands, hosted on Feb. 7 by Mac’s Place, filled the College Union Ballroom to its ceiling with the sound of guitars, singing and the familiar flair of rock music. Seven bands participated in Friday’s event, each granted a 15-minute set in competition for an audience majority vote to win a prize of $500. Each audience member turned in a ballot at the end of the show, and local funk band Red Kettle was selected as the winning group.
The night began with Red Inc., a four-piece progressive rock group with a demeanor that hinted at an indifference toward the audience’s satisfaction; it was all music, no showboating. This cost the band approachability, but its music was a purely sonic experience. It shifted through tidal waves of melody – low to high to low – masterfully, giving sound with the force of a sledgehammer and the precision of tweezers. The band’s music demanded the entirety of the members’ focus, and the result was utter sophistication.
I had wondered if Overly Sexual American Girls would deviate from the evocations of their namesake, but found that they were unlike Barenaked Ladies in that regard. Two acoustic guitarists constituted the group’s vocals and at least the last quarter of their title. Both seemed positioned in self-aware awkwardness behind their assertive namesake, which was entertaining if somewhat motley.
The Subconscious, a traditional rock three-piece led by a guitar-playing singer, also performed, playing in traditional hard and alternative rock styles and covering Nirvana, as per rock tradition. If you like the classics, you were dancing up front with a dozen others who agreed. If you didn’t, you were bored – even when the group broke out with a Smash Mouth song.
OK Artichoke, a three-piece play on grassroots protest music, criticized the Vietnam War and South African apartheid with an acoustic guitar and tambourine. The members’ confidence and their hauntingly beautiful voices on a cover of Sufjan Stevens’ “Casimir Pulaski Day” allowed the music to blend with hijinks.
The American Accent was OK Artichoke’s exact opposite: not a performative joke, but a joke of a performance. An audience member exclaimed that they were 13 again after the band’s cover of Blink-182’s “All the Small Things.” Being 13 was awful enough the first time, but at least the second time would only last 15 minutes. To give credit where it is due, seemingly half the audience was dancing.
With the jazz outfit Red Kettle on the roster, the audience was in for a treat from the beginning. The baritone saxophone, blended within a seasoned and tidy hollow-body guitar, bass and percussion trio, was fated to stir us into a groove. For 15 minutes the music was perfect, and every seat was empty.
I may have set my bar too high by the time pop-punk outfit Thundercloud Kid began. Consider, though, that pop punk was joined at the hip with alternative culture a decade ago. Alternative culture later moved on from pop punk with all the swiftness of the mainstream culture it opposes. Now, pop punk is nostalgic at most.


This week on the legal-affairs podcast Lawyer2Lawyer, we look at the controversy over mandatory arbitration of consumer credit-card disputes. Here is the description of this week’s show from the Legal Talk Network, where you can listen to or download the complete program:
Mandatory arbitration in credit card agreements are in the legal spotlight again after the Minnesota Attorney General recently sued the largest national arbitration firm, National Arbitration Forum. That resulted in a settlement shutting down part of NAF’s business and has raised questions about the outcomes of arbitration versus action in civil court for consumers. Lawer2Lawyer co-hosts, Bob Ambrogi and J. Craig Williams call on experts on both sides of this controversy, Attorney Deepak Gupta from Public Citizen Litigation Group, who focuses on consumer rights and Attorney Alan Kaplinsky, senior partner at Ballard Spahr Andrews and Ingersoll in Philadelphia, who pioneered the use of pre-dispute arbitration.

OZ Outlook: Permian Basin
The Permian Basin, and in particular the Western Delaware Sub-Basin has experienced explosive population growth due to increased oil & gas activity over the past 24 months. The sub-basin’s infrastructure is woefully inadequate for the rapid increase of workers, equipment and trucks. OZ Capital has identified the QOZ in Loving and Reeves county as a focus area for infrastructure, healthcare and real estate investment.
“When...oil companies review their business plans and consider their greatest concerns, he said it’s not sand or pipeline capacity or technology. ‘Collectively, they say it’s schools, roads, doctors and housing.’” – Tim Leach, CEO, Concho Resources at Midland Chamber of Commerce
“Midland’s population is burgeoning, and the Midland Development Corp. (“MDC”)…recognizes the urgent necessity for expanded capacity in housing, child care and roads, and is working to address those issues. We look forward to more participation in infrastructure, health care, and education as we establish partnerships to meet Midland’s needs.” – Sara Harris, Interim Administrator, MDC

Social Media Taking Heat For UK Riots
In case you’ve been under a rock the past couple of weeks, mass riots are taking place across the pond in the UK. Why they’re rioting isn’t really important for this post so I won’t go into it. I think it has something to do with classism or something to that effect. Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron however is taking dead aim at social media, placing a lot of the blame for these riots onto the shoulders of Facebook, Twitter, and Blackberry makers Research in Motion (RIM). Cameron has even gone as far as considering a ban on social media for some individuals. Basically he says that a “free flow of information” can be used for “ill will.”
It wouldn’t surprise me if some of the protestors were using social media as a means to coordinate their activities. This same issue arose not too long ago with the revolution in Egypt. Many of there will tell you Facebook and Twitter didn’t start a revolution but it did help foster the cause. You can’t punish social media for that because people are simply using the tools at their disposal. Oh yea, then there’s that whole freedom of speech aspect that comes into play. That’s not exactly a minor detail. If you think people in the UK are rioting now, try taking away their Facebook and Twitter then witness that anarchy and chaos. That was a little tongue-in-cheek but you get the idea. Representatives of Facebook and Twitter said they’re happy to meet with the government, although both would presumably object to being censored or shut down in the UK.
Cameron is just looking for a scapegoat. It’s quite obvious people are upset but this violence we are witnessing is completely unacceptable on all levels. That being said, Facebook didn’t chunk a brick through a windshield and Twitter didn’t light a building on fire. You can’t censor people’s freedom of speech over the poor choices of a few. Come on Prime Minister, you’re better than that.

ON THIS PAGE: You will find information about how many children and teens learn they have this type of cancer each year and some general survival information. Remember, survival rates depend on several factors. To see other pages, use the menu on the side of your screen.
Each year, about 225 children and teenagers in the United States are diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma. Ewing sarcoma makes up about 1% of all childhood cancers. The five-year survival rate is the percentage of people who survive at least five years after the cancer is detected, excluding those who die from other diseases. The five-year survival rate of people with Ewing sarcoma with a localized tumor (a tumor that has not spread) is about 70%. If the tumor has metastasized (spread) at the time of diagnosis, the five-year survival rate is about 15% to 30%. The survival rate is slightly higher for patients whose tumor has spread to the lungs only, compared with those whose tumor has spread to the lungs and the bones.
Cancer survival statistics should be interpreted with caution. These estimates are based on data from a number of people with this type of cancer in the United States, but the actual risk for a particular individual may differ. It is not possible to tell a person how long he or she will live with Ewing sarcoma. Because the survival statistics are measured in five-year intervals, they may not represent advances made in the treatment or diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma. Learn more about understanding statistics.

Nuclear weapons persuasive essay article
Ought to every nation have the right to possess indivisible weapons?
On the 6th November 1945, a United States bomber flew towards the Western city of Hiroshima. The only cargo aboard that B-29 bomber was an atomic blast ” actually nicknamed “Little Boy ” that was going to be dropped on its target. At 8. 15am and at a height of around 2, 000ft the bomb exploded above Hiroshima, taking a hundred and forty, 000 lives with that. Most of the a hundred and forty, 000 passed away instantly, horrifyingly the rest of the harmless civilians which were not in direct exposure to the bomb died painful deaths in the four a few months following.
Only $13.90 / page
They will died via radiation sickness and different types of cancers. Whilst the atomic explosive device is considered among the greatest developments of all time, when it comes to how it could protect a nation, could it be really worth having numerous levels of governments in edge at the thought of a weapon and so powerful? Ronald Reagan described nuclear weaponry as: “Totally irrational, entirely inhumane, best for nothing but eradicating, possibly resulting in the damage of your life on Earth and civilisation.
He spoke nothing but the fact. US President Reagan was obviously a nuclear abolitionist. He assumed that the only reason to obtain nuclear weapons was to stop the Soviet Union from using theirs. Between them alone the United States and Russia have an overabundance than 90% of the planet’s nuclear guns. Why do these countries feel the need to posses a lot of nuclear warheads? Dominance, electricity and monomanía. Although some with their weapons may possibly simply just always be left over in the Cold War, this is not a reason. They could have easily been destroyed presently. Countries just like Russia and the United States demand power. Nowadays the most important element to guarantee electric power is guns. Countries owning nuclear weaponry use them to scare and intimidate additional nations. 1 day this could spring back and the effects would be dangerous. Take North Korea and America. The moment Kim-Jong Algun tried to get into South Korea, Barack Obama threatened them with an atomic bomb. The moment that was done North Korea recognized they had a significant diplomatic concern and rescinded their risk. A major danger to universe peace is the potential issue that certain more compact countries will likely rebel against being altered and not the capacity to retaliate. To ensure that they prevent being teased by bigger powers they may start to create their own elemental warheads. Since previously stated, thereason two superpowers like Russia plus the United States maintain a significant strategy of nuclear weaponry is definitely down to the simple fact that truthfully, they are paranoid. If you can amass most of the nuclear warheads in the world then definitely nobody would ever be able to harm your country. This is certainly not the case. By having so many risky weapons you are not only a larger threat to potential foes but practically there is the additional threat that Terrorists may pose in the event that they ever before managed to protect or grab some of these weaponry.
Morally we have to also be asking yourself the quality of indivisible weapons, if the leaders of your country declare it is ok to use an extreme sanction just like nuclear weaponry to endanger enemies then simply what’s to express that people do not the actual same thing over a smaller level? In the beginning from the atomic age atom bombs were created to end the war also to save quite a few lives. At this time I mean that arguably, multitudinous lives were saved because when the blast was lowered on Hiroshima the Japanese nearly surrendered right away. If they hadn’t surrendered the war possibly might have gone in for a lot longer. In contrast to this, look at what is now of elemental weapons now. Instead of conserving lives, atomic bombs have become kept together with the intention of unnecessary holocaust. What makes the monsters that enforce the utilization of nuclear weapons any different from Adolf Hitler, Pol Container or Paul Stalin? Even though the atomic bombs are not utilized at this moment, any individual or any authorities in possession of these types of weapons have intention to inflict considerable amounts of soreness on multitude of people. Rajiv Gandhi stated that the “nuclear war will not mean the death of just one hundred million people. Or perhaps a thousand , 000, 000. It will mean the annihilation of four 1000 million: the finish of your life as we know this on the world. The outlook of a nuclear war is just a horrendous thought, a thought that all should never mix our brains. Recently, President Barack Obama and Perfect Minister Dmitry Medvedev fixed a treaty saying that both equally countries are able to reduce their very own amount of nuclear weaponry by a third. It is reassuring to see that the US and Russia start to destroy their atomic bombs but it is not adequate enough. They need to prevent reducing all their arsenal of weapons and eliminate all of them completely. Opposing team of this idea claim that buying arnaments like atomic bombs mutually assures governments that they both have the opportunity of ultimate destruction. But is that really a good or positive thing? People who appear to be psychopathsrun a number of countries. For instance take the ruler of Zimbabwe: Robert Mugabe. He is at the possibly senile age of 89. His mind is definitely failing. Are you able to begin to comprehend what happens if this individual got his hands on a great atomic explosive device? The result would be anarchy. Or take the leader of Syria, President Assad. He has already murdered many people simply by chemical gas attack and has openly stated that he would destroy the state of Israel. For rulers like these guys to possess weaponry with these kinds of a huge harmful potential is actually a simply ludicrous thought. In the event that some unhinged individual were to drop an atomic blast now it could result in retaliation and possibly the most important global disaster this world has ever seen.
We have to think about the consequences. It is a statement of fact that the more of something being produced the easier it is to acquire. Yes, this may concern elemental weapons also. When more nuclear warheads are staying manufactured there is a bigger probability of them theft or a whole lot worse being detonated. Therefore , we have a much larger likelihood of them falling into the wrong hands. In line with the International Atomic Energy Firm, there have been 18 cases of loss yet most likely thievery of uranium and plutonium. These elements will be key when ever constructing a bomb. To make matters a whole lot worse, there have been eleven whole elemental bombs shed in the United States. They may have never been recovered. In the event agencies and governments have found it hard to keep track of their components now, think about how impossible it would be if every nation had their own arsenal of nuclear weapons? If these kinds of lost bombs are inside the hands of terrorists presently I can make sure they will currently be considering how best to rely on them to maximise their very own effect.
To conclude, the fact is that if every country would have been to have the right to possess nuclear weapons we would all be living in constant anxiety about attack. Existence would be different; we would end up being insecure with regards to our security and this would impact tremendously on how all of us lived existence ” we would need to be a lot more vigilant. A little example of this is the potential result that water explosives has on air travel in which we won’t be able to take any fluids which can be more than 100ml into an airport. That is certainly just for liquefied explosives, what limits would be required to ensure nuclear pieces weren’t being smuggled? If one country were to drop a explosive device it would set off a chain effect, all it will take is perfect for one fake state ororganisation to detonate a explosive device and the universe would properly end through nuclear Armageddon.

A new class of materials for use in electric and electroluminescent devices having one or more phosphine oxide moieties bonded by single bonds to two outer groups. In embodiments having two or more phosphine oxide moieties, the two or more phosphine oxide moieties are further joined by a bridging group. By selecting appropriate bridging and outer groups, the new class of materials of the present invention enables designers to "tune" the electrical and electroluminescent characteristics of the materials. The phosphine oxide moiety restricts electron conjugation between the bridging and outer groups, isolating the bridging and outer groups from each other, and allowing the photophysical properties of the bridging and outer groups to be maintained in the molecule. The lowest energy component (bridging group or particular outer group) thus defines the triplet state, highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular energies for the entire molecule.

As reported by Esports Observer, Judge James Donato told the behemoth companies that while he is happy for them to decide on a date to commence proceedings, a two-year delay in the case was not acceptable.
Moreover, if Epic Games and Google want to set the date themselves, Donato has told them to "get moving."
It is worth noting that while Google wanted the case to begin in 2022, Epic had suggested that proceedings start in February 2021.
See you in court
Much like its case with Apple, the games behemoth chose to sue Google after Fortnite was removed from its Android storefront.
However, the tech giant made that decision after Epic introduced a new payment option that circumvented Google, stopping it from collecting its 30 per cent commission.
Apple and Epic have been at loggerheads since August, with their case set to go to court in May 2021. In September, not only did Google ask for its case with the Fortnite creator to be kept separate, but it also wanted it dismissed.

Becoming a Mount Sinai Doctor: It Begins with a Walk in the Neighborhood
Over the next four years, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai's prospective doctors will care for many patients who come from nearby East Harlem. Literally as well as metaphorically, the first steps in getting to know that community will come with an East Harlem walking tour. From that day on, our prospective physicians will gain an understanding of how community, societal, and cultural factors impact on the health of individual men and women.
It is a rite of passage that the New York Times chronicled in an article titled "Future Doctors, Crossing Borders; Lessons in East Harlem's Culture, Diet and Health."
Groups of 10 students, accompanied by upperclassmen, faculty, and a handful of East Harlem community partners, walk the neighborhood, eat local foods, and discuss the traditions and belief systems of the people living there.
Offered through our Center for Multicultural and Community Affairs (CMCA), the tour is designed to give students a first-hand sense of East Harlem's rich history and culture but also the health disparities that exist in this community. For example, East Harlem has the highest concentration of public housing in all of Manhattan, representing a massive investment dating back to the 1960s. Most of the housing stock has since deteriorated significantly, with an accumulation of triggers for asthma that has led to the highest incidence of pediatric asthma hospitalization in the city.

Ursula Callistis (アーシュラ・カリスティス Āshura Karisutisu ), born Chariot du Nord (シャリオ・デュノール Shario Dyunōru ) and also known by the stage name Shiny Chariot (シャイニィシャリオ Shainī Shario ), is a main character in Little Witch Academia. She is the Magic Astrology teacher at Luna Nova Magical Academy and the mentor (and idol) of the young witch Atsuko Kagari.
As Ursula Callistis
Ursula is an adult woman with back-length dark blue hair tied with what appears to be bandages just before the end, forming a small ponytail over her right shoulder. She has red eyes with white pupils and fair skin complexion. She wears the default uniform of Luna Nova's staff: a dark violet hooded dress reaching up to her knees with long wide sleeves, a red flame-like design in the bottom, a single brown strap on the chest area, and the dress' inside is colored a deep red; a black choker; a dark violet witch hat with a dark blue band decorated with a red feather and a golden crescent-shaped object; dark blue knee-high boots with a deep dip and red tips; and black-framed oval glasses which usually obscure her eyes due to reflecting light, making their resemblance to Chariot's less obvious. She does not actually need her glasses, as first shown in "Blue Moon". She is notably younger than the other teachers and this shows in her appearance. This is not lost on them, as in "New Age Magic" they relegate to her the exhausting task of acquiring extra magical energy for the school, prompting Ursula to remark that "being young is suffering".
As Shiny Chariot
As Chariot, her hair was shorter and had a red tone similar to her eyes. Her hair was parted to the middle so as not to fall over her eyes, but part of it fell between her right eye. She also had bangs framing the sides of her face and curving in, with neck-length hair curving out on the back of her head. In her costume as Shiny Chariot, she wore a white stylized tailcoat vest with long sleeves secured by four blue buttons holding everything together which doesn't cover her armpits, clavicles, cleavage, and navel, giving it a similar appearance to a corset or vest; a blue skirt; a brown body-belt with a golden ring-shaped buckle; blue thigh-high stockings (which appear to be folded over themselves); white boots with a diamond-like shape in the tip, two parallel buttons right under it, along with a red tip and heels; a white witch hat with a blue hatband and a red-and-blue diamond/spade-like symbol with a golden four-pointed star in the middle; and also a red cape with a brown strap and golden buttons.
Ursula's true appearance is first seen in "Chariot of Fire", later in "Chariot and Croix", and from the end of "Yesterday" to "Tree of Leaves". Without her hat and hair-tie, her red hair falls in the same way as it did before she became a teacher, though it has grown longer. Without glasses, her eyes are unobscured. This "transformation" occurs when she is in or preparing for magical combat, and she also takes the skirt off of her uniform to make it easier for her to fight. With her uniform modified as such it resembles a black body suit with similar patterns to those on her skirt, and with her shoulders and cleavage visible.
After Akko and her friends destroy the Noir Rod missile and her identity has been revealed, Chariot continues her role as Luna Nova's astronomy teacher and Akko's mentor. She dresses in the same manner as she did as Ursula, including her glasses, but no longer magically disguises her natural red hair.
From her early childhood, Chariot sought to become a witch who could make people smile. Her natural charm and radiant personality attracted everyone around her. However, Chariot's passion for magic exceeded her skill, which led to many blunders. Her faithfulness to her belief that magic should be used to make people happy brought her the staff of seven stars, Claiomh Solais, which she nicknamed the Shiny Rod. In her frustrations, she sought out the Fountain of Polaris, which grants the great magic power of the stars onto the witch with a hidden radiance. The Fountain opened for her but did not bestow the power upon her, as she was not yet worthy to wield it. She started to work harder and took her studies more seriously, eventually earning the power of the stars for her determination and dedication. Chariot became a very powerful witch, easily awakening the first six words of Arcturus. She never sought for power for its own sake, wanting nothing but to use her power to benefit others. When she performs, both as a child and as Shiny Chariot, her passion for magic is unmistakable. While there is never a time she does not enjoy what she does, Chariot is highly attuned to the reactions of her audience and is devastated when her magic does not make them smile. This did not become an issue until she became a magic idol and the public's expectations of her grew ever higher. Ultimately it was the pressure to please them which led to her downfall.
After this, Chariot left the stage and assumed new identity "Ursula Callistis" where she becomes astronomy teacher of Luna Nova. While never quite losing the spark she had in the past, the decade of becoming humble teacher and shadow of her former self takes its toll on her. Ursula had brief lapses of her self-reflection whenever reminded of her past life as before becoming a teacher, and become hopeless until she met Akko, her fan who brings her hope for redemption (as the young witch came to her life as new bearer of Shiny Rod). Her devotion to the young witch is the greatest illustration of compassion and selflessness, and her guidance also reveals a great wisdom beyond the dreamy idealism of her youth. Moreover, it was the bond between the two (coupled with her discovery of Woodward's role in her fallout with Croix) which led to her discovering what she lacked in her attempt to unlock the Final Word long ago and ultimately, becoming the hero her beloved student saw in her and to do the right thing, more than her own mentor can ever be. Towards the end of the series, Ursula continued to be the teacher of Luna Nova where this time, she embraced her true self by no longer magically altering her hair.
Abilities and Equipment
Born with a natural talent for magic, Chariot still faced difficulties in her youth but became great enough to acquire the magic power of the stars. Currently, she is an outstanding magic user, since as Shiny Chariot, she performed the greatest magical feats seen in the series. However, she actively chooses to limit how much she uses her magic to keep her identity a secret. Notably, her hair reverts to its natural red when she uses powerful magic spells.
She is a user of the Magic of Stars, a unique magic which has unknown yet powerful abilities. Although it is unknown if it is related to the former skill, Ursula is well-versed in magical astrology, which is used to see the future. By using her wand, Ursula can project powerful beams and explosions of destructive magical energy, create powerful energy barriers, large energy orbs suspended in the air and a large sword made of magical energy. She usually changed the form of her own body during her shows such as obtaining dazzling wings on her back or the half of a horse's body, apart of being able to reverse the effects of this magic as seen with Andrew Hanbridge. She is also able to repair a broken object in conjunction with a magic powder to improve its effectiveness, levitate objects or people and move them as she wishes, and knows several magic languages. Ursula is adept in communication with Spirits, is also shown to be able to transmit her voice over long distances with a magical megaphone and like other teachers, she can project images and scenes into thin air. In the past, she demonstrated great broom flying abilities, however, she lost her ability to fly when exposed to the Wagandea pollen. She is one of the few witches in the series shown to cast magic without a verbal spell.
In addition to magic, Ursula possesses an astonishing physical and acrobatic ability that is augmented by her magic. She can execute kicks that can break stones, knock over large statues and run on walls. She can also push back a monstrous version of the Noir Rod and survive falls from the midst of Wagandea albeit severely injured as a result. However, it is also implied that Ursula also had trained her body to peak level of human conditioning as over the course of her fight against Noir Rod's monster form, she was shown able to brush off otherwise crippling injuries, leaping to considerable height, and severely crippled the magitronic monster, all of which performed without magic.
Primarily used before she became known as Ursula, it is a powerful magical artifact that may very well the embodiment of the power of seven stars that make up Big Dipper itself and responds to the heart of its owner. She can transform it into a broom, as well as into a bow, and create an arrow from thin air with the Seven Words of Arcturus. It can also increase the power of spells when used.
She stopped wielding the Shiny Rod when she caused a disaster in her magic show, damaging the moon's surface with the Shiny Arc and taking away the magic of her audience, which caused the Shiny Rod to wither away in her hands. Akko Kagari had the Shiny Rod after her, but just like with Ursula, it faded away, though in the former's case, the staff returned to the stars where it came from.
She has a straw broom with a crescent moon-like design in one end. She would use it to fly until she lost the ability to in "Wagandea".
- In the Brazilian and Latin American dubs of the first film, Ursula and Shiny Chariot have different voice actresses. This could be due to the producers of the dub not realizing that they are indeed the same person.
- It is also possible that this was done to keep the truth of Ursula being Chariot a secret.
- Currently, in the Latin American dub of the anime, this was noticed and changed, and now both Chariot and Ursula are voiced by Gigliola Mariangel.
- In the Brazilian dub of the TV series, Chariot was voiced by Flávia Saddy in the first episode like in the first movie, but Woodward's illusion of Chariot in the 11th episode was voiced by Miriam Ficher, Ursula's voice actress, and so was the real Chariot in Croix's subsequent flashbacks.
- In order to remain a low profile, Ursula actively limited the amount of magic she utilizes and even bewitched her hair's color into blue where enchantment involved would temporarily undone should she use too much power. The manner such enchantment work is different between short film and TV Series, however; the former depicted her hair's transformation from blue to red being fiery as opposed of smoother, almost instant change in the latter.
- Ursula's Shiny Chariot stage costume bears a striking resemblance to Woodward's appearance in the ancient textbook, hinting Woodward's outfit at that time was the basis of her said costume.
- Though likely a coincidence (assuming it not intentional in Studio Trigger's part given to its tendency to include allusions and homages from other works), Ursula in her Shiny Chariot's appearance and status as a high-tier magic user could be inspired by Tabasa/Tessa, one of four playable heroes in the fantasy-themed 2D arcade game Red Earth.
- In terms of being the chosen wielder of an artefact of great power for a significant purpose until she lost it from using artefact in question to cause a catastrophic damage at some point in the past and had a best friend/comrade who turned against her out of both envy and uneventful circumstances beyond their control on the other hand, Ursula may also inspired by Gai Kurenai aka. Ultraman Orb from Ultra Series.
- "Ursula" means "little bear", derived from a diminutive form of the Latin word "ursa" (she-bear).
- As the show has so many connections with the Ursa minor/major (differs in the series and the movie) constellation, it is possible that this is where her name comes from. The Ursa minor/major is also called the Chariot in a lot of cultures which makes a connection between her names, the shiny rod, and the words of Arcturus.
- "Callistis" is a reference to the Greek myth of Callisto. From Wikipedia:
- "According to Ovid, it was Jupiter (Zeus) who took the form of Diana (Artemis) so that he might evade his wife Juno's detection, forcing himself upon Callisto while she was separated from Diana and the other nymphs. Callisto's subsequent pregnancy was discovered several months later while she was bathing with Diana and her fellow nymphs. Diana became enraged when she saw that Callisto was pregnant and expelled her from the group. Callisto later gave birth to Arcas. Juno then took the opportunity to avenge her wounded pride and transformed the nymph into a bear. Sixteen years later Callisto, still a bear, encountered her son Arcas hunting in the forest. Just as Arcas was about to kill his own mother with his javelin, Jupiter averted the tragedy by placing mother and son amongst the stars as Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, respectively."
- "Chariot du Nord" literally means "Northern Chariot" in French, referring to the constellation Ursa Major.

Foreclosure Crisis: Disproportionate Impact on African American and Latino Households and Neighborhoods
Everyone knows there is a huge foreclosure crisis. This new analysis provides a closer look at New York City and Long Island to reveal the disproportionate depth of the impact on minority communities, where modifications have been scarce and widespread foreclosures threaten African-American and Latino neighborhoods. New data from 2010 shows that there is an indisputable connection between race and the likelihood of being served with pre-foreclosure notices.
The high rates of foreclosure and homes “underwater” are the result of years in which minority homeowners were far more likely to be given risky, high-cost loans. In both New York City and Long Island, lenders were four to five times more likely to issue high-cost loans to African-Americans and Latinos between 2004 and 2007 than they were to whites.
Despite this disproportionate representation in foreclosures, recently released data from the Furman Center shows that minority homeowners in New York City are less likely to receive mortgage modifications than white homeowners.

INTRODUCTION: 1950'S ROCK AND ROLL
It is hard to believe, but there was once a time when there was no rock music. Most historians trace the beginning rock back to the year 1954, when a new type of music, then called Rock and Roll, appeared and revolutionized musical tastes, at least among young people, and pretty much changed the world.
This new music, of course did not develop in a vacuum, but resulted from the convergence of two musical styles, Rhythm and Blues and Country, as well as a series of technological developments that created a new market for music.
Rhythm and Blues developed from the music called the Blues. The Blues, to review what you have already learned in the Jazz unit, "grew out of African spirituals and work songs sung by African-Americans in the South. Many of these people had been brought to the United States as slaves, and before the Civil war they labored in difficult situations on the Southern plantations. 'Call and response' was often used as a means of communication by the workers in the fields, who fooled the plantation owners into thinking that their music was the 'happy' music of hard working slaves."
Rhythm and Blues developed from the Blues, and Rock and Roll developed from Rhythm and Blues (R&B). Little Richard, one of the great innovators in 1950's rock music, has often said that "Rhythm and Blues had a baby and somebody named it rock and roll." He, of course is absolutely right, and a number of important R&B artists were part of the beginning of Rock and Roll. Among them were Muddy Waters, Willie Mae Thornton, Joe Turner and Ray Charles.
While music was developing, technology was also changing. In the late 1940's and early 1950's, phonograph records were large and heavy and easily damaged. These records played at 78 rpm's (78 revolutions per minute) and were played on rather awkward record players that were usually part of a large piece of furniture (console), which often was located in the living room. Stereo had not yet been invented. In many homes, the entire family would sit around the living room listening to bands like Glen Miller, Tommy Dorsey and Benny Goodman, and soloists like Frank Sinatra, Patti Paige, Doris Day, and Eddie Fisher. Record companies marketed music to adults and radio stations played music that would appeal to the entire family.
In the 1950's, records began to change with the development of new technology that led to both the 33 rpm record and the 45 rpm record. The advantage of the new technology was that more musical information could be put on a record, and it was of higher technical quality. Thus, the 33 became popular because more music could be put on a 33 than several 78's and it sounded much better. The 45's were much smaller in size and contained one song on each side. These, as you might guess, were called singles. Not only were 45's much cheaper to buy than the old 78's and the larger 33's, but they could be played on a small record player that could be purchased inexpensively by a teenager and kept in his or her room.
This meant that there were now two markets for music, one for adults who bought mostly 33 rpm records and continued to play them on console phonographs and the other for young people, who bought mostly 45's and played them on small phonos in their rooms.
Also during this period, the "transistor radio" was invented and became popular. This meant that radios became much smaller and much less expensive, and like the small phonographs soon found their way to young people's rooms. Car radios were also becoming more popular, and more people were listening to the radio while driving. For a long time, the radio was an expensive option in a car. It is hard to imagine a car without a radio today, just as sometime in the not to distant future, it will be hard to imagine a car without a telephone. But in the 1950's radios were just beginning to become standard equipment in cars.
Radio stations began to program their music to fit the demographics of a new audience. The audience, which until the early 1950's was a pretty homogeneous audience, now was divided into segments with different interests and people listened to music in a number of places, including their cars. This all meant that some radio stations played music for adults and some stations played music for the teens.
Not surprisingly, young people were tired of the music their parents listened to and they started to look for something new. The white teens of the major metropolitan areas such as New York, Chicago, Detroit and Los Angeles began to turn to the stations that played music they had never heard before. It turned out that the music being played on the "black" radio stations in those cities was Rhythm and Blues (R&B). This music, was of course, familiar to the black population in America, but was brand new for many whites. Since the white audience was so much larger than the black audience, radio stations and record companies released that a major shift in listening patterns was about to occur, and in order to keep the white audience, as well as to appeal to the black audience, they needed to broadcast and promote R&B, or something like R&B.
Big Joe Turner's song "Shake, Rattle and Roll" began to be played on the white stations. The white record companies started looking for white acts (in the foolish belief, soon to be proved wrong, that white kids wouldn't buy records by black performers) that played something resembling R&B. Groups like Bill Haley and His Comets (originally a country band called the Saddlemen) and soloists like Elvis Presley brought a strong country background to the music, and this combination of R&B and Country became Rock and Roll.
These influences combined in a simple, blues-based song structure that was fast, sexy, catchy and could be danced to easily and with excitement. These qualities, along with the fact that it horrified adults in general and parents in particular, caused Rock and Roll to become immensely popular with teenagers, who then, for the first time had their own music.
Among the important bands and soloists in 1950's Rock and Roll were Willie Mae Thornton, Big Joe Turner, Bill Haley and His Comets, Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly and the Crickets, Fats Domino, Bo Diddley, Gene Vincent, the Everly Brothers, and Carl Perkins. Unfortunately, we can't cover all of them in this course, but we try to give you a representative group.

Tracy Gary says she starts every day as a “grateful activist.” That’s a good way to approach the morning, and an attitude that infuses the 66-year old Gary’s now 40-year career as philanthropy advisor, non-profit leader, donor and consultant.
A founder of nearly two dozen non-profits, Gary heads Unleashing Generosity and Inspired Legacies, and is on the road 40 days per year working with non-profits, foundations, and donors. That’s down from the 200 days away from home she used to log, but in the last few years she has reduced her workload (which used to run to 60-80 hours per week) and dropped 100 pounds. It’s a matter of staying healthy, and staying on the planet, so that she can continue mentoring the next generation of inheritors and philanthropy professionals.
“We have been very intentional to make sure that organizations that are connected to communities and girls of color are at the table,” said C. Nicole Mason, Ph.D., Vice President of Programs for the Washington Area Women’s Foundation (WAWF), when talking with Philanthropy Women recently about the launch of the Young Women’s Initiative (YWI).
This connectedness to the community is a big factor in what makes YWI a powerful vehicle for youth empowerment for girls of color as well as for transgender and non-gender conforming youth.
Today, Grantmakers for Girls of Color will hold its second annual convening, with more than 125 funders meeting in New York for a day-long dialogue about girls of color and safety.
Grantmakers for Girls of Color (GGOC) is an unprecedented collaboration of philanthropic funders that are particularly focused on challenges faced by girls of color.
From the press release:
At the convening we will learn how girls of color are most impacted by interpersonal and state violence and how movements are responding. Together, this is a chance for funders to focus on intersecting safety concerns facing girls of color, as prioritized by those leading movements, and to explore how we can best support efforts working to create safety.
Because of the importance of addressing climate change for women worldwide (as well as for all other manner of human and other species), it is important to take note of the economic activity that other countries are poised to engage in as a result of the Paris Accord. It’s also important to note how the U.S. will miss out on these economic opportunities because of our current poor (and non-representative) presidential leadership.
Another day, another fascinating report on the status of gender equality philanthropy. Today I came across the report, Aid in Support of Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment, and read about how the United States stacks up against other Development Assistance Committee (DAC) member nations in terms of funding gender equality.
The data shows that as of 2014, the U.S. was the largest supporter of gender equality and women’s empowerment among the DAC membership. The report shows that of the $40.2 billion committed to gender equality and women’s empowerment, the U.S. was responsible for $26,211,000 of that. Second behind the U.S. is Japan, with a total of $16,817,000 in total aid screened. (It’s a complicated mix of ways this money is calculated, so you should look at the notes in the report to get an accurate sense of what they mean by “total aid screened” and other terms.) Third behind Japan in total aid screened is EU Institutions, with a total of $16,312,000.

SEATTLE — Holiday travel is such a mess at Sea-Tac Airport that on Tuesday, Alaska Airlines said passengers who don’t have to fly between now and Sunday should consider rescheduling.
The airline says with more snow coming and staffing problems, it’s taking at least three days to rebook passengers.
Hold times on Alaska’s reservation lines are now pushing 20 hours as people try to rebook after canceled flights.
Planes and workers are scattered because of the winter storm, and the airline doesn’t expect to have enough seats in the coming days to move everyone who wants to go.
“We will not get our hopes up until we are wheels up,” said Kaitlin Vintertun, who was trying to get to Alaska with her husband and son to visit family.
“We’ve been trying to get out since Sunday,” she said on Tuesday.
By 11 a.m. Tuesday, Alaska Airlines, Sea-Tac’s largest carrier, canceled more than 150 flights for the day, with more expected.
Workers handed out water to people stuck in long lines for rebooking, which were not quite as dramatic as the day before.
Still, there were plenty of stories like Chris Henry’s.
“It was a lot of mayhem this morning in terms of the line, and people didn’t know where to go,” Henry said.
After waiting in line an hour and a half to check a bag, he missed his flight to Dallas.
“I had to get in another line to get a new flight, and I waited in that for the last three and a half hours,” Henry said.
He was booked to leave nearly 12 hours after his original flight, if the plane goes at all.
Alaska Airlines initially said Tuesday that de-icing each plane was taking more than an hour, and canceling flights eases congestion.
By Tuesday evening, the airline reported that de-icing time had been reduced to an average of 22 minutes.
Then there’s the staffing problem.
Alaska officials said the airline had been able to backfill employees out because of COVID, but now the storm has disrupted operations to the point where all those reserves are tapped.

BATON ROUGE — About $15 million in property tax breaks for manufacturing facilities were stalled Monday by a state board that reviews them, after Gov. John Bel Edwards said he wants the tax breaks tied to jobs.
Once seen as a rubber stamp on the tax breaks, the Board of Commerce and Industry deferred action on more than two dozen requests for the Industrial Tax Exemption Program.
In some instances, companies seeking the tax breaks can submit additional information to try to persuade the board. In others, the board is awaiting guidance from Edwards on how far he wants the new rules to go.
The governor announced in June that he was changing Louisiana’s approach to the tax exemption program created decades ago.
New and expanding manufacturing facilities are allowed an exemption from local property taxes for up to 10 years. The Board of Commerce and Industry and the governor must sign off on the exemptions, which strip millions of dollars annually from local government agencies such as school boards and police departments.
The tax break applications often received little scrutiny from the board or a governor. But Edwards issued an executive order spelling out that he intends to tie the tax breaks to job creation and retention and to involve local government agencies in the decisions.
Monday’s Board of Commerce and Industry meeting was the first since Edwards issued the order, which business organizations have warned could cause uncertainty and disrupt pending manufacturing projects.
The board stopped most of the applications before it from moving forward, approving only a handful whose paperwork had been filed before the June 24 executive order.
Representatives of companies whose tax break requests were deferred talked of the value of the new facilities, add-ons and upgrades to chemical plants and other manufacturing sites. They said the tax breaks helped keep jobs at their facilities and keep the sites operating.
A group of faith-based and community leaders known as Together Louisiana pushed for more scrutiny of tax break applications, saying severe flooding in mid-August devastated public schools, police property and other public facilities that need tax revenue for recovery.
“This is a new day, and we’re under a disaster,” said the organization’s Dianne Hanley.
Robert Adley, a board member representing the governor, said many of the applications for tax breaks were “not pretty to me,” with millions in exemptions proposed for companies that don’t indicate their projects would create any new jobs.
For example, a Cleco Power LLC tax break application that received approval because it had been in the pipeline before Edwards’ executive order will give the company more than $12 million in tax breaks over 10 years for a project expected to create 12 jobs in St. Mary Parish.
“At some point we have to stop this process of a million dollars per job,” Adley said.

Middleton man eager to try again next summer as he fails to break speed record down Wisconsin River
A Wisconsin man didn’t reach his goal of being the fastest person to paddle down the Wisconsin River.
But that’s not discouraging him from trying again.
“I feel wonderful,” said Joseph Spennetta.
That might not be the reaction you’d expect from a man who set out to paddle down the Wisconsin River in six days and ended up taking nine.
But that’s the attitude Spennetta is holding onto after his adventure.
“I really had a great time. I want to do it again next year,” he said.
WXPR first introduced you to the Middleton man on May 25th, the day he put his canoe in Lac Vieux Desert and began his attempt to break the record for fastest paddle down the Wisconsin River.
The trip was going well until he hit the Castle Rock Flowage section in Adams County.
“[I] ran into a very heavy wind, 20 miles per hour, constant headwind. Really in that flowage there’s no edges to hide behind. I was paddling for all I was worth to 20 mph headwinds and really big waves, ended up swamping the canoe, tipping over four times. The last time my paddle ended up breaking as well as part of the canoe,” said Spennetta.
To make matters worse, he couldn’t get a hold of his sister who was following his route in a car to help in emergencies.
“Thank you to all the people, especially around the Castle Rock Flowage, who were wise enough and nice enough to help me with getting a hold of my transportation and getting me re-hydrated while I was waiting,” he said. “A lot of nice people, didn’t catch everyone’s names, but there were a lot of really nice people who were very helpful.”
Even though Spennetta knew he was out of the running to break the record, he still wanted to see it through.
He went home to regroup, get a new paddle, and fix the canoe.
Then went back to the river and finished the route.
“I couldn’t do it in record time but it was still an amazing experience,” he said.
Spennetta says he learned a lot on this trip, knowledge he’ll use when he makes another attempt to break the record next summer.

Sven, man of so many mysteries
By DES KELLY, Daily Mail
Last updated at 10:33 13 June 2006
If he throws Wayne Rooney on against Trinidad and Tobago and that spectacularly risky gamble backfires, then he can consider himself in trouble on both counts.
One stray boot, one unfortunate twist, and the nation will happily lynch Eriksson for his lack of coherent planning, unless Sir Alex Ferguson throttles him first. Either way, he will deserve it for being so utterly reckless.
There are often occasions in life when I encounter things I am simply unable to explain.
Those daytime talk shows, for instance, where a grotesque man, so repellent you can actually see body odour fumes rising from him, sits between two women ready to rip one another's hair out to prove who wants him the most.
Then there's John McCririck, who may not be the most likeable person in the world, but is certainly one of the most obnoxious. Why seagulls don't swoop down to attack this human compost heap I'll never know? Mysteries all.
But Eriksson is becoming the conundrum to end all conundrums.
It is impossible to have watched England in company recently without turning to the person by your side whenever Sven makes a decision and asking: 'What the — insert your preferred expletive — was that about?' It's reached the stage where you can actually see players doing it, too.
So many things just do not add up. Tell me how we ended up with more match officials on duty at a World Cup match than strikers in the England squad?
FIFA, adopting a belt and braces policy, have a grand total of five referees and assistants at every game just in case one of them tweaks a muscle lifting the substitutes' board.
By contrast, Eriksson has adopted a neither belt nor braces policy and is now standing with his trousers around his ankles and hoping for the best. Again.
He thought four strikers would be enough for a tournament that lasts a month and stretches for seven matches — seven if England are lucky, that is. He was wrong.
Rather than bring Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe to Germany, Eriksson opted to include midfielder Jermaine Jenas and the uncapped, unwatched and untested Theo Walcott.
Everyone with a passing knowledge of the game could see the idiocy of plumping for a limping or unready quartet. And now Eriksson is in a flap because of his silly miscalculation, an anxiety that is pushing him towards what threatens to be the biggest mistake he has yet made.
Michael Owen is no more than 70 per cent fit, as we saw when he lasted less than an hour against Paraguay. But even then, Walcott didn't get a look in, which begs the question: 'Why is he in Germany in the first place?'
The youngster is now in strapping anyway after taking a 'knock' in training. Not that he has made much of an impression in practice from what I hear, although you can hardly blame the lad for struggling to adjust.
And so Peter Crouch is England's only fully-fit striker and must carry the country's hopes on his bony shoulders. But he is on a yellow card and one ungainly elbow away from missing the Sweden match through suspension.
That leaves Rooney. I've been pessimistic about his recovery since day one. But while the robust striker is clearly in advance of my gloomy fitness forecasts, I can't bring myself to trust Eriksson to make a sober judgment on his readiness.
How can you? The campaign has been littered by so many strange little idiosyncrasies, Sven's logic seems to have gone out the window.
Why bother to play pre-tournament friendlies and then throw Joe Cole into attack behind Peter Crouch for the first time against Paraguay at the World Cup? Was there anyone as surprised as Stewart Downing when he was brought on to replace Owen? Did the players have a clue what was going on? No mystery there. They didn't.
England should have been preparing to cruise through Thursday's match, ready to rack up enough early goals to enable key personnel like Steven Gerrard to take a rest during the second half.
Instead, it is shaping up as an oddly nervous affair, with questions over the shape of the team, Eriksson's unfortunate habit of sucking the life out his side during half-time and continuing unease about certain individuals' fitness.
England will win, of course. They must against such weak opposition and the real tests lie ahead. But had Eriksson planned correctly, he would not even need to consider risking Rooney at this stage.
As things stand, it is impossible to avoid the feeling that if England win this tournament it may be in spite of Sven, not because of him.
The joke's on you, Rio, after this TV stinker
I didn't stop laughing during 'Rio Ferdinand's World Cup Wind-Ups', but that was probably because I didn't start.
If Ferdinand misses a penalty, accidentally stamps on Wayne Rooney's bad foot and scores the own goal that knocks England out of the World Cup, his performance will still rank higher than this 0/10 stinker of a television debut.
His hugely-hyped Candid Camera-style show was supposed to embarrass a few of the more famous names in football with 'hilarious pranks' that had been 'months in the planning'.
But as you watched these useless and rather unsettling skits, you realised that all of the so-called 'victims' - Gary Neville, Rooney, David James, Ashley Cole, Peter Crouch, David Beckham and the thoroughly decent Shaun Wright-Phillips - were emerging with their dignity intact.
Indeed, the only footballer made to look like a pillock was Ferdinand himself, a leering presenter, who kept cackling and snapping his fingers at nothing as another non-joke unfolded before our eyes.
If you were lucky enough to miss it, here's Ferdinand's 'sense of humour' in a nutshell. His sketches - sorry, 'hilarious sketches' - consisted of a violent music producer, a violent restaurant owner, violent Russian mafia gangsters threatening to cut an Asian man's finger off, some prostitutes, a dead dog and a property development shaped like a penis.
Well, they say the best comedy is inspired by what you know. But the joke of the night? That was played on all of us by the ITV commissioning editor who brought this half-baked dross to our screens and duped us into watching it.
• There have certainly been more skilful, more talented and more flamboyant players in the English game. But not one of them can claim to have been more effective than Roy Keane.
He was more than just the Manchester United captain; he was the living embodiment of a will to win.
When he was at his snarling, combative best, he controlled the game and it says much about his influence that Sir Alex Ferguson is still casting around trying to find a midfielder who can fill the void he left behind.
Of course he had his faults. Keane was volatile, ludicrously derelict in his duty during his Irish World Cup walk-out in 2002, vindictive when he had a score to settle and recklessly outspoken when he felt standards were slipping from the impossibly high bar he set for himself and others.
But that is what made him the irresistible force he was - and his criticisms of United always hit the mark.
Now a persistent hip injury has forced him to retire after one season at Celtic, that black- eyed, deadahead stare will no longer be seen as the players line up in the tunnel. Instead, the 34-year- old will save his glare for a move into management.
Be very afraid...

NEAR bankrupt Hyundai Merchant Marine (HMM) has issued a statement saying its restructuring plan lays the "foundation to drive HMM to become a sound company" from the second half of 2016.
HMM has now closed a US$100 million sale to H-Line of its dry bulk business, which transports iron ore, coal and steel products, reports American Shipper.
HMM also said it also completed an agreement to sell a 40 per cent interest plus one share in its Hyundai Pusan New Terminal to Singapore's PSA for KRW80 billion (US$70 million).
HMM also said it would announce a preferred bidder for the sale of Hyundai Securities this Friday, April 1, and that payment will be completed after July 2016 once the deal is closed.
It said KB Financial Group, Korea Investment Holdings and Hong Kong-based private equity fund AKTIS all submitted final bids for Hyundai Securities.
HMM has also signed an agreement with the Korean Development Bank (KDB) and other creditors on March 29 to restructure the firm's debt.
"The creditor banks are planning to establish a specific debt restructuring plan for HMM after a due diligence conducted by an external accounting firm. Due to it, the banks will spare three months for preparation and postpone the principal and interest of debts under agreement," HMM said.
"Originally, the creditor banks were planning to sign the voluntary agreement once HMM completes every stage of its restructuring plans," it said.
"However, they decided to take the agreement forward in order to actively support HMM's stabilisation as well as accelerating the charter cut negotiations and the restructuring of debts under non-agreement."
Despite the debt restructuring being voted down at a bondholders meeting held on March 17, HMM said it is planning to hold another meeting with all public bond holders.
Hyundai also said it expects negotiations to reduce charter costs with shipowners.
"Recently, HMM has made progress on its first round of charter cut negotiations with foreign shipowners. HMM is going to start the second round of meetings after discussing the terms, suggested by the shipowners regarding compensations, with KDB, and is expecting that the shipowners will agree on charter reduction."

Well guys I have been an unfortunate one and have gotten bitten by the "pump rub" :grrrrrr: . I noticed it a few weeks ago and did a quick JB Weld patch on the outside of the case to stall it until I could get the parts so I can fix it. I also put some more fluid to top it off to keep it working. My luck I have a sport bike to drive while I don't drive her much in case something were to happen. I have just received my parts to fix the issue and will be tearing into it tomorrow after work. She should be up and running by the end of the weekend if all goes well and as planned. I got my main part from Merchant Automotive and is the pump upgrade kit(http://www.merchant-automotive.com/transfer-case-pump-upgrade-kit.aspx). Also I ordered a replacement backer plate that acts as the anti-rattle clip that is put in at the factory. I plan on taking the drive and output shafts off and dropping the case. After that is said and done I will be putting in the upgrade parts and reenforcing the area that has been grooved out with JB Weld to make it stronger for future. I will try my best to do a write up on it and take pics as I go about the job. Also let you guys know what I would do different or what would make things easier.


KC effort plans to buy, resell abandoned houses
KC estimates 7K homes exist around city
Private rehabbers are teaming up with a Kansas City legal group, local government and neighborhood leaders to acquire abandoned homes and get them ready to sell at low prices for cash-strapped buyers.
The city estimates there are 7,000 abandoned houses scattered around parts of the city, many of which will need to be torn down. Legal Aid of Western Missouri is taking dozens of absentee homeowners to court in an attempt to reclaim the abandoned properties and get them into the hands of people who will live in them.
Financial institutions like Bank of America and Wells Fargo have donated several homes and are making money available to repair them. City officials say that combination is helping put a dent in the local abandoned housing problem.

It has been a couple weeks but now is finally the time to get this blog thing rolling again. I’m back from my China adventure and finally feel caught up with the latest Raleigh news. This time of year usually is pretty busy in downtown Raleigh as a lot of events are going on and the weather starts to warm up, bringing lots of people out. I just wanted to update to show people that I am still alive and have some ideas that I may or may not write about. Development is real slow these days but that does not mean there is anything to talk about. Here are a couple ideas for future posts.
- Beer drinking in Raleigh, the success of The World Beerfest, and places that support the scene.
- Wayfinding signs review.
- Redesigning Moore Square; are people asking for green space upgrades in downtown or is the city hoping it will encourage more usage? Do we need this at all right now?
- Transit. There’s always something to talk about here.
- Maybe a rant about how many people want by-the-slice pizza but no one will open a place.
Doesn’t Martin St. Pizza do by the slice?
^Exactly what I was thinking.
Wayfinding signs review: Basically awesome, though some of the “routes” are a bit odd. For a few locales, it’s like going around your elbow to get to your toe. I guess they want folks to use scenic routes! ;-) But nonetheless it’s great to have!
Moore Squre– my biggest want there is better landscaping and lighting. And benches with armrests in the middle of them to discourage being used as beds.
Transit- god, we could go on and on. The R line is an excellent start.
Glad to see you’re back! :-)
sam and wally’s does by the slice too.
