Every Living Former Defense Secretary Tells Trump to Accept Defeat
Daily Beast: All 10 living former U.S Defense Secretaries had a stern message for a Republican Party looking to overturn the results of the 2020 election: Stop. “The time for questioning the results has passed,” the group wrote in a Sunday editorial, published by The Washington Post.
10 former defense secretaries: Involving military in election disputes would be dangerous, unlawful – The Washington Post https://t.co/F8jGDtYPhn
— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) January 3, 2021
“Efforts to involve the U.S. armed forces in resolving election disputes would take us into dangerous, unlawful and unconstitutional territory.” Among the former Pentagon heads who signed on to the op-ed include both of President Trump’s defense secretaries, James Mattis and Mark Esper.
Former Vice President Dick Cheney, whose 2000 electoral victory alongside George W. Bush ultimately came down to a Supreme Court decision, also signed on.
“Each of us swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. We did not swear it to an individual or a party,” the letter reads.


Wahkiakum team places first at international robotics competition
Naselle Bubbleheads claim fifth place
May 18, 2023
The Wahkiakum Mecha Mules Water Damage robotics team took first place in the open division of the International SeaPerch Challenge over the weekend and can proudly claim themselves World Champions, or as Wahkiakum School District Superintendent Brent Freeman says, “Intergalactic champions of the universe!”
Last week, the Mecha Mules and the Naselle Bubbleheads traveled to Washington D.C. for a little sightseeing at our nation’s capitol, and on Saturday, they joined 17 other teams from the U.S., China, and Kuwait in Maryland in the open class of the underwater robotics competition sponsored by the U.S. Office of Naval Research. Another 128 teams competed in either the middle school or high school stock classes.
According to Ron Wright, the founder of the local robotics programs, as well as a mentor for both programs, and former coach of the Mecha Mules, the open class is “easily the most difficult class to be in,” “reserved for those teams able and willing to invest the time, energy, and resources to build advanced robots.”
The stock classes are for high school and middle school teams who use a stock robot kit, and they are only allowed to spend $25 for any kind of innovations or improvements. They are also limited to only middle school students, or only high school students, while middle school and high school students can work together in the open class.
In the open class, the Wahkiakum Mecha Mules Water Damage team took first place overall, and were ranked first in the technical design reports category and first for their team video. They placed fourth in the mission course, scoring 90 points and finishing at 3:44.63, well before the eight minutes they were allotted. They also placed fourth in the obstacle course with a time of 0:48.78. The team is coached by Amanda Heston.
The Naselle Bubbleheads took fifth place overall, with a fifth place finish in the technical design reports, and seventh place for their video. They placed fifth in the mission course, scoring 90 points, and finishing with a time of 5:03 and eighth in the obstacle course with a time of 1:37.19. They are coached by Rudi Rudolph.
“I knew our kids were talented and worked hard for this, but to have it recognized on such a big stage, against some stiff competition, even more so than last year, it's so satisfying. I'm so proud and so happy I got to be their coach this season,” Heston said of the Wahkiakum team.
Another coach and mentor, Jessica Vik asked the Mecha Mules to talk about their favorite thing about this experience. Here are their replies:
“My favorite part of the trip was being with the team. It was very fun winning the awards we did,” Micah Johnson said.
“My favorite part was going to the spy museum and being with the team,” Annelise Vik said.
‘Having our hard work pay off. We know we improved since last year. Seaperch's recognition validated that,” Arwynn Haney said.
“Winning the competition and every everyone freaking out when our name was called. And being the tallest person there. I got to sit on Peter's shoulders for a picture,” Jamey Heston said.
“I enjoyed the Spy Museum and Ford's Theater. No one person could have made champion on our own, we each needed the person sitting next to us,” Peter Vik said.
“I enjoyed the way the trip was set up. We saw less this year but got to take in more at each place. The mutual respect to each team member on this trip is great,” Alan Smith said.
"I am really glad we are able to come back with 1st place!” Nathan Garrett said.
Many other coaches and mentors helped make this happen, according to Wright including Brian Heston, Jeff Rooklidge, Josh Miller, Marjorie Watkins, Steve Hart, Mark Sutton, and Jessica Vik, and Wright.
The Eagle tried to catch up with the Naselle Bubblehead team who arrived home on Monday. We’re hoping to share more about their experience next week.

In September, Squamish’s most needy will have access to healthy and affordable chef prepared meals, thanks to a grant from the Salvation Army headquarters in Toronto.
The $25,000 grant will allow the New Hope Cuisine program to expand to Squamish, allowing seniors and other vulnerable groups to access fresh and healthy food at low prices.
“In essence, it’s for anyone who has barriers to feeding themselves,” said Chef Scott Rowe.
“There are the economic barriers, but some seniors can have a problem just preparing meals,” he said.
Frozen meals prepared by Chef Rowe and other community volunteers in North Vancouver would be trucked to Squamish, where they will be stored at the Mountain Valley Mission in downtown Squamish.
The frozen meals will be supplied to people through partnerships with community organizations, said Rowe.
A three part meal will sell for $4, and would contain rice, potato, vegetables and the main course. One dish item or casserole will cost $3.50, while the soup would cost $1.25.
“In essence, it’s for anyone who has barriers to feeding themselves.” Chef Scott Rowe.
The program aims to provide anywhere from 1000 to 2000 meals per month.
“These are healthy low sodium, low sugar meals made by a chef and community volunteers,” Rowe added.
Those planning to use this service should be thankful to local resident Riun Blackwell, who first initiated the program last year, but had to stop due to logistics.
The costs of following through for the properly labeled packaging and transportation were too great and Blackwell held back.
Blackwell is glad to see someone has picked up where he left.
“This is wonderful news, and there is a need for this type of service in our town,” he said.
There are troubling statistics when it comes to food security in the province, and in this region.
According to the annual report by the Dieticians of Canada, the average monthly cost of a nutritious food basket in the province is $868.43.
That number goes upward in our region.
The average cost of a similar basket in the Vancouver Coastal Health region: $944.16.
Gerry Kesten, community nutritionist for the region, says it’s easy for families to meet their calorie need, but not their nutritional needs.
“Income barriers related to social and housing cost all play a factor,” Kesten said.
Recently, a food drive by Squamish Food Bank collected approximately 5000 items of food, of which more than 1900 items were donated by Nesters.
The food bank also raised $4155.19 during this drive called Christmas in July.
The Hope Cusine program is expected to start by mid-Septermber, although there is no fixed date yet.

There have been numerous changes in the industrial world. Majority of these have been witnessed in the metal industry. Majority of these efforts are aimed at the ways metals works. This has been one of the most crucial developments in the industry. There have been metals that have been designed to cut metals for you. They are very efficient regarding delivery and performance. The use of cooling fluids is the best way to maintain cutting machines as well as making the work easier. It also makes the job easier.
The new technology despite efficiency comes with their challenges. Some of them being on the best ways to cool these metals, improve the surface finish, lubricating the cutting tools as well as extending the machine’s lifespan. The only solution that beat them was the use of cutting fluids. The fluids include cutting oils which have been the best invention so far.
Cutting fluids are lubricants that were explicitly being used for machine work and also metal works. They are a combination of a lubricant and a coolant that is aimed at making the work easier. They usually fall into several categories; pastes, oils, oil-water, gels, mist and emulsions.
The cutting process of the metals usually produces a considerable amount of heat. This is because of the high friction caused by the two metals because one has to be stronger than the other. The primary purpose of the fluid is to maintain the temperature when the process is ongoing. These cutting fluids are also crucial because they also help with extending the life of the cutting tool. They also protect the people using the tools as well as preventing the machines from rusting. In short, the whole apparatus cannot survive without a cutting fluid which plays very crucial roles.
The cutting fluids discovery has never come of age, and people have been advancing each day. They started by using water which could cool down the heat caused by friction. This method was so risky for the cutting machine because it reduced its lifespan. Rusting was the primary cause. The next discovery was soda water because it solved the problem of rusting. The main problem was that it didn’t help un the lubrication and thus the need for a better oil. They later advanced to greasing whereby they started coming up with the vest greasing options. It has been rated the best method so far.
In our today’s world, cutting fluids have been able to fall into several categories, and they include: Straight oils. The oils are used by machines that can run at a slower speed. They need less cooling and more lubrication. Soluble Oils. They have additives that make them mix with water. They provide both cooling and lubrication. Semi-Synthetic oils. They contain less petroleum but very similar to soluble oils. They make them more effective in operations. Synthetic oils. They contain no petroleum and has been rated as the best regarding performance, rust prevention and cooling.

1875 rosewood clock valued at $350
Scripps Howard News Service
Q: I have a mantel clock that belonged to my great-great-grandmother. She was born in Prussia in 1842 and died in Iowa in 1921. The clock says on the inside of its case, “Thirty Hour Brass Clocks, Patented March 17th, 1868, Manufactured and Sold by Welch, Spring & Co., Forrestville, Conn., USA.” What can you tell me about the history and the worth?
A: In 1856, Elisa Niles Welch (1809-1887) began making clocks in the old J.C. Brown factory located on East Main Street in Forrestville, Conn., after that company had gone bankrupt. His initial factory was later joined by two others, and, in 1864, the firm was named the E.N. Welch Manufacturing Company.
Welch, Spring & Company was a subsidiary of that parent company and it was founded in 1868 by Welch, Solomon Spring and Benjamin Lewis. Each man had his place in the hierarchy of the company — Welch had the manufacturing facilities, Lewis invented calendar movements and Spring was famous for his rosewood cases.
These three men wanted to make a line of superior timepieces, which ran contrary to the clock business model of the time, which emphasized quantity over quality. The new Welch, Spring & Company produced three models in the first year of its existence, and in the next six years made only five regulators and five styles of calendar clocks. The clocks made in the 1870s could be housed in either walnut or rosewood cases, and L.W.’s example appears to be in rosewood.
Normally, rosewood is a highly prized wood, but in the case of Welch, Spring & Company, they made far more rosewood examples than they did walnut. As a result, the pieces housed in walnut cases are rarer, and therefore, more valuable. The clock in today’s question appears to be rosewood (we are 99 percent sure of this), but photographs can be a little deceptive in this regard so we must hedge just a bit.
In any event, this is a circa-1875 clock with an arched top and column sides. It should be around 19 inches tall and 12 inches wide, and have a movement that is time and strike with an alarm. Many of these clocks had patriotic pictures such as flying eagles clutching an American flag on the glass panels — and these are desirable. But the piece shown here is decorated with a rose, which is attractive but not quite as stirring as the eagle-flag design that is so indicative of the era.
In the letter, this clock is referred to as a “mantel” clock, which is not really incorrect, but we also see these called “parlor clocks” and “shelf clocks.”
Welch, Spring & Company went out of business in 1884, but the E.N. Welch Manufacturing Company continued to make clocks until 1902, when it was bought by the Sessions family and the name subsequently changed to the Sessions Clock Company in 1903.
The value of this clock depends on its condition and whether it is in good working order.
For insurance replacement, this very attractive Welch, Spring & Company clock should be valued in the range of $350 to $425 if it is indeed in good working condition.

Back when Cecilio and I were just dating or even just engaged, we ate out pretty often. We loved (and still do) going to different types of restaurants: counter order style, brunch, New American, Indian, Mediterranean, French, Italian, Mexican, Asian, etc. and we save fine dining restaurants for very, very special occasions. I guess you could call us foodies.
Now that we are married with our own place, we don’t eat out as much as we used to because most of our money goes to groceries and apartment rent. So when we do go out and have dinner somewhere, we try to make it even more special. From January 12–21, over 30 restaurants teamed up with Dine Downtown Sacramento to offer a fixed 3-course meal for $35/person. This is an affordable way to get try one of the many restaurants in our area. The proceeds went to different social services and food literacy programs in the community.
Due to Sacramento’s Farm-to-Fork identity, the restaurant scene here is booming (we’re also known for hipster coffee shops and breweries). Since there are so many farms nearby (and a few dozen farmers markets at our fingertips), restauranteurs here make sure to get the freshest ingredients for their dishes. This Thrillist article describes why Sacramento’s food scene is blowing up, despite being overshadowed by SF and LA.
Cecilio and I chose to go to The Porch Restaurant and Bar, which serves classic Southern comfort fare (and yes, they do have a porch for those who dine outside, but it was way too cold to eat outside at night).
For appetizers, I wanted the soup of the day but because they ran out of it, I had to get an iceberg wedge salad with ranch sauce, tomatoes and cucumbers. I usually don’t like iceberg salads because they are so boring (and they are light green, so the lighter green the lettuce, the less nutritional value it has). It was delicious considering how hangry I was, but Cecilio ordered fried Brussels sprouts that were seriously AMAZING. It had citrus-herb vinaigrette, sesame and chili-spiced almonds, but yet tasted sweet (not at all tangy). I usually don’t like Brussels sprouts (maybe because I’m terrible at making them), but I devoured half of it while I let him have some of my salad. May I mention that it is vegan too?
Now for the main entrees: the Nashville Hot Chicken was calling my name, so that is what I ordered. It was delicious, but my mouth was on fire! The chicken is seasoned with cayenne, garlic, herbs and spices, and served with white bread on the side. I had to keep chasing it with water and my mint julep. Usually when a dish is too spicy you are supposed to drink dairy or eat bread, which is what I tried to do but even the bread was doused with the chicken marinades (one of the legs was served on top of the bread). Cecilio ordered Chicken Fried Pork, which had creamy mushroom grits, braised cabbage and apple butter on the side.
Now for dessert: usually we both share it, but we wanted different things. I opted for the Pecan Bread Pudding, which hit the spot and wrapped up my meal. It wasn’t too sweet or rich, but you would never have guessed that it was vegan. Cecilio ordered the Pineapple Upside Down Cake, which had ice cream on the side.
When all was said and done, our bellies were full and happy. I would love to go back to The Porch to try other items in their menu, especially because Southern cuisine is a rare treat for us Californians. We would also like to try another local restaurant called South, which is a more affordable and casual version (but just as mouthwatering-sounding) of The Porch. We cannot wait to participate in Dine Downtown Sacramento next year and experience another amazing restaurant our city has to offer.
I highly recommend The Porch for a date night out with your friends or S.O.!

Munchin delivers a speech on voting rights and reform
Kelly supports rule changes to pass the Right to Vote bill
Republican restructuring weakens the influence of minority voters, the report found
Republicans As new district lines are drawn across the country, the influence of minority voters is severely distorted in their favor, weakening their influence, a new report says. Brennan Center for Justice.
The report, which examines the game’s state of the ongoing decade redistribution cycle, indicates Republicans They argue that the new taxes are based on discrimination in their efforts to dismantle minority districts.
Although racial discrimination is illegal in the redefinition, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 2019 that discrimination based on discrimination is acceptable.
“This cycle sees unprecedented attempts to undermine the political power of black, Latin, Asian and indigenous communities, especially in the southern states, for the first time in more than half a century, not falling under Section 5. The Right to Vote Act,” the report said.
“There have been more aggressive attacks on minority power in the suburbs of southern states such as Texas and Georgia. There, Republicans have quickly surgically removed diversified districts, where communities of color have enjoyed increasing electoral success in recent years, ”it added.
The report also states that Republicans have full control over the drawing of 187 of the U.S. House of Representatives’ 435 counties, making the counties less competitive.
Donald Trump The GOP controlled redefinition under the old maps won 54 districts by a margin of 15 or more points. Under the new scheme, that number will increase to 70.
The redefinition cycle is still ongoing. New York, Tennessee and Missouri are still among the states where lawmakers are drawing new maps.

Some of you might be wondering, what's a crisp? For those of us in North America, its another term for potato chips; deep-fried potatoes with flavour goodness. I’m not sure where I fall in the which name is a better description. I generally think about the word “chip” as being better, but that’s because it’s what I called them for most of my life. Objectively however I think the word crisp works better. “Crisp”, is a good description of the texture of the deep fried potato snack. “Chips” only really applies if your crisps are broken. I’m not really sure which name came first, but I’ve started to find myself using the word crisps now and again.
Now what makes these crisps better than your average North American potato chip? Well, to be honest, nothing really. I went through the whole bag of crisps and really had to think hard of anything that might put these things apart from other potato chips. The only thing I could think of is that unlike most North American potato chips, where onion is most often the secondary flavour, (i.e. Sour Cream and Onion) the onion flavour prevails in this snack. The cheese is more of a secondary flavour. Some might say this is an advantage, if you don’t like onions you might not.
These crisps are fine, the flavours are fine and the texture is fine. While I’m not sure how much one pays for these in the United Kingdom, here in Canada they’re a little more expensive. While they taste okay, I’m just not sure it’s worth a Queen's ransom.

Piñata Farms plans to grow its seasonal workforce to 50 staff within the next two years.
The leading fruit producer is among Australia's approved agricultural industry employers recruiting seasonal workers from the Pacific Islands under the federal government's seasonal worker programme (SWP).
Eighteen seasonal workers are currently employed at Piñata Farms' mango and pineapple farms in the Northern Territory and North Queensland.
Under the scheme, employees are permitted to work in Australia for six months at a time and to return for consecutive seasons after a six-month break.
"We have a few, loyal returning Australian workers but generally Australians are unwilling to do manual farm work," said Piñata Farms’ North Queensland operations manager, Stephen Scurr.
"Without international seasonal workers, it would be virtually impossible to manage harvesting. They are absolutely critical to the survival of Australia's horticultural industry."
The workers have been recruited from Vanuatu - one of nine participating Pacific Island countries - due to Piñata Farms managing a sandalwood and lime plantation there. The Vanuatu operation employs 25 Vanuatuans, many of whom have worked on Piñata's farms in Australia through the SWP.
Scurr said Piñata Farms became involved in the scheme after his brother, managing director Gavin, saw first-hand the scale of devastation caused by Cyclone Pam when it struck Vanuatu in early 2016.
"We thought the best we could do to help the region rebuild was to provide work at our farms,” he explained. “We now employ a labour provider to source and provide staff and manage their clearance to work here."
Scurr said an ongoing challenge was to provide suitable short-term accommodation for the SWP workers.
“Our goal is to have 50 people working in the Northern Territory by next year or the year after. However, finding accommodation for 50 people for six weeks of the year is a challenge,” Scurr said.
“We're able to provide accommodation and transport for the current intake and we're talking to hostel providers in Darwin as our intake increases in the future."

AGE starts its campaign to re-establish the EP Intergroup on Ageing and Intergenerational Solidarity
Now that the newly elected Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) are coming back after a short summer break, AGE Platform Europe is launching its campaign for the re-establishment of the Intergroup on Ageing and Solidarity between Generations. Nine MEPs have already committed to supporting the campaign in Brussels and AGE members are busy spreading the word at national level.
We invite you to join us to make sure ageing and demographic change issues will remain high on the EP political agenda for the coming 5 years.
What is the Intergroup on Ageing and Intergenerational Solidarity?
The European Parliament’s Intergroup on Ageing and Intergenerational Solidarity has been operating successfully since 1982. It has been a key factor of progress in the past decades to improve the quality of life of the European citizens.
The Intergroup is a forum gathering members of the European Parliament (MEPs) committed to positive solutions to the challenges of demographic change. It is an effective platform to:
- provide a cross-party forum for in-depth discussion and joint action on the challenges posed by demographic ageing and what the European Union (EU) can do
- provide an agenda of events that can help MEPs address ageing issues in a wide range of committees
- help meet the expectations of the EU citizens through measures that cope with demographic change in a positive way
In the last parliamentary term (2009-2014), some 40 MEPs joined this Intergroup. They represented most of Member States and all political groups. AGE cooperated closely with the Intergroup to organise awareness-raising events on pressing ageing issues and to work on legislative files that have an impact on senior citizens living in the EU.
Why re-establishing the Intergroup is important for AGE Platform Europe?
Ageing issues are now more relevant than ever to the European Parliament’s work across a whole spectrum of committees, touching on everything from economic affairs to transport, culture and education, pensions, employment and social affairs, civil liberties, justice and home affairs, internal market, consumer protection, health and gender equality.
It is crucial to continue raising awareness about Europe’s population ageing and the need to find innovative ways to tackle the ongoing economic and social crisis and ensure a fairer and more sustainable future for all generations. The Intergroup can play a crucial role in helping the EP adopt positive attitudes towards ageing in all relevant EU policies.
How can you help to re-establish the Intergroup?
As an MEP, you can encourage your political group to vote in favour of the Intergroup on Ageing and Intergenerational Solidarity and encourage other MEPs from your political group to do so after the selection is made. If you are interested in supporting and/or joining the Intergroup on Ageing and Solidarity between Generations, please contact Ophelie Durand email@example.com.
As civil society organisation or citizen, you can help mobilise MEPs to vote in favour of the Intergroup on Ageing and Intergenerational Solidarity and encourage other MEPs from their political group to do so when the selection is made.
AGE has prepared documents to help you campaign for the re-establishment of the Intergroup:
- Presentation of past activities and successes of the Intergroup, available in English.

ABC Radio National Australian Broadcasting Corporation If global military expenditure is anything to go by, this will be a century of khaki and camouflage.
But Antony Funnell discovers the hyped threat of China's growth should be put into perspective. While its military expenditure is second to the US, the gap between the two nations' spending (and technology) is enormous. There is a familiar Western narrative accompanying China's military growth, which fixates on its rivalry with the United States. Western media often falls prey to portraying every Chinese military development as further proof of an imminent Sino threat to America's global hegemony. 'We welcome China's rise. the government does not approach China as an adversary,' said Prime Minister Julia Gillard, trying to play down the China US rivalry angle. But much of the coverage given to the White Paper's launch still centred on the idea of an impending global super power conflict and whether Australia would eventually have to choose which side to support. It isn't just the media that likes to talk up the idea of US China competition. In 2009 the head of the United States Pacific Command, Admiral Robert Willard, told reporters in South Korea: 'I would contend that in the past decade or so, China has exceeded most of our intelligence estimates of their military capability and capacity every year. They've grown at an unprecedented rate in those capabilities.' Twin fears are at the heart of the China US rivalry narrative: fear of future global affairs being dominated by a giant totalitarian police state; and fear that the United States, for so long the self styled protector of democratic freedoms in the world, is fast losing its strength. There are also, of course, those who simply like to talk down the USA and its power, either because they object coach outlet atlanta kia to it, or because they're part of coach outlet purses with flowers a long tradition which the BBC's former Washington correspondent Nick Bryant calls American 'declinism' a fashion for constantly predicting the end is nigh. So, when the great floating airbase that is the carrier Liaoning manoeuvred for the cameras off China's northeast coast in November 2012, its launch was immediately interpreted once again as a sign of Beijing's fast growing military rivalry with the United States. According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, China spent US$166 billion on its military in 2012, equivalent to about 9.5 per cent of global military spending. In that same year the US coach bags outlet store spent US$682 billion, accounting for just under 40 per cent of total global expenditure. But the Liaoning is a perfect example of just how wrong the commentariat can be when it comes to the world's most populous nation and its development. You see, the Liaoning isn't China's latest full length aircraft carrier, it's the country's only aircraft carrier. And it isn't even new. The Liaoning is a refurbished ex Soviet vessel first launched in 1988 and known variously in the past as the Riga and the Varyag. Once you account for that fact, the new pride of the Chinese fleet looks far less like a threat to American naval supremacy than an admission of just how dominant the US military remains. 'Not in the same league' is the way Dr Sam Perlo Freeman from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) describes China's military strength and sophistication in relation to its US counterpart. That's not to deny that China's military strength has been increasing dramatically. The latest figures released by SIPRI indicate that Beijing increased its military spending in 2012 by 7.8 per cent. But everything associated with modern China from its economy to its level of homelessness has been on a rapid rise over the past few decades. And any attempt to suggest that China will soon be on the verge of rivalling American military might seems fanciful once you examine SIPRI's country by coach outlet quilted jacket country breakdown of global military expenditure. According to the Institute, China spent US$166 billion on its military in 2012, equivalent to about 9.5 per cent of global military spending. In isolation that sounds impressive enough, until you look at the corresponding expenditure figure for the United States. In that same year, the US spent US$682 billion, accounting for just under 40 per cent of total global expenditure. And while the Obama administration is now engaged in a series of budget cuts that will affect the size of the US military budget in coming years, it's worth pointing out that the US military has grown enormously in the last decade. In 2013 its budget is 69 per cent greater than it was in 2001 in real terms. In other words, while it's true that China is now second only to the United States in military expenditure, the gap between the two nations' spending levels is enormous. 'The ratio may continue to go down but the US's overwhelming lead is not going to change in a hurry,' says Dr Perlo Freeman. The difference between the capabilities of the armed forces of both nations is also significant. 'The United States has 11 aircraft carriers, fully fledged with full battle groups around them,' Dr Perlo Freeman says. 'The Chinese have one which is largely a training platform decades behind in technology and they've just started building another. So again, the technological capability gap is closing, but it is considerably larger even than the military spending gap,' he says. 'From China's point of view, they are not trying to match the United States, they know they can't any time in the next couple of decades, what they are perhaps aiming for is a situation where in the event of a localised conflict, for example over Taiwan, the US couldn't have it all its own way,' says Dr Perlo Freeman. 'They're spending on things like anti access area denial capabilities that the United States are quite worried about that would prevent the US's overwhelming naval forces from operating freely in the area around China, around China's coasts and areas like the South and East China Sea.' Writing in the prestigious journal Foreign Policy in early 2010, Drew Thompson, the director of China Studies at the Nixon Center, made a similar point: 'The PLA's global range is much more limited. As of last June, the United States had 285,773 active duty personnel deployed around the world. But China operates no overseas bases and has only a handful of PLA personnel stationed abroad in embassies, on fellowships, and in UN peacekeeping operations.' China might not have the global reach of the United States, and it might not be gearing up for a gladiatorial battle with the Americans anytime soon, but according to SIPRI, it's clear that the growth in the size and complexion of the Chinese military is having a significant effect on the Asia Pacific region. A point not lost on Australia's Prime Minister Julia Gillard, who said in releasing her government's new Defence blueprint last week: 'We also recognise that China's rise and its subsequent military modernisation is changing the strategic order of our region.' According to SIPRI's latest research, military expenditure in Asia rose by 3.3 per cent in 2012 with most countries in the region increasing their military spending substantially. 'Perhaps the most worrying trend there is the China/Vietnam situation,' says Dr Perlo Freeman, who expects expenditure levels to continue to rise. 'Vietnam's increases in military spending are very clearly directed towards China. They are spending a lot on major naval equipment. It was recommissioned the Lioaning by the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) in 2012 (AFP/Getty Images) 'There is a potential downside to the increasing economic weight and development of Asian powers and that's because now these countries can afford much bigger militaries,' he says. 'These countries already have continuing strategic tensions and rivalries, and some of these tensions are actually worsening as these countries become more wealthy.' And China is increasingly the focal point of much of the growing tension, he says. 'It's an unfortunate reality that most of the serious strategic flashpoints in Asia do have something to do with the rise of China,' he says. 'They are around China's maritime periphery in particular.
Really if you look everywhere from Korea down through the East China Sea, South China Sea, and even around to the China India border, there is almost a ring of tension around China. I think there is a great degree of strategic mistrust between China and other powerful states in Asia.' Mr Medcalf says fear of China's future intentions in the greater Asian region is now manifesting itself in a series of new treaties between China's neighbours and also between Asian nations and the United States.

The Swiss-based HeiQ textile company has introduced a high-performance cellulose yarn based on a new fiber derived from carbon negative materials.
The fiber, called AeoniQ, is made of cellulose biopolymer, which can be sourced from a range of natural materials like algae, bacteria or coffee grounds—resources that don’t require fossil fuels and use just a fraction of the water needed by conventional processing.
AeoniQ yarn is made of cellulosic biopolymers that bind carbon from the atmosphere while generating oxygen. With further development, AeoniQ could potentially replace many of the synthetic filament yarns that make up more than 60 percent of global annual textile output. Further, when compared to conventional cellulosic products, AeoniQ yarns do not draw on arable land, pesticides or fertilizer in their production.
HeiQ’s challenge will be to grow to where it can compete with synthetic rivals. It is inviting a maximum of 20 sustainability-driven brand partners to be the first to market with products made of this game-changing yarn. HeiQ announced in October that the LYCRA Co. has signed on as the first development partner. LYCRA’s agreement gives it exclusivity for AeoniQ yarn that can be used in its stretchable fabrics.

Everything was amazing. We took our daughter and granddaughter for the first time. It was great. They called me to make sure my reservations were correct because I requested a high chair due to my granddaughter being under a year old. Everyone was great and very accommodating.

My husband and I have been coming to The Melting Pot for years. Normally it is very romantic, very relaxing & our servers are amazing. This time we felt extremely rushed by our waiter. We ran out of cheese & chocolate before the courses were done. Not a good experiance at all. We felt like we wasted $90 in 45 minutes. If we go back it will be a while from now.

My girlfriend took me to the Melting Pot in Myrtle Beach for a romantic night out and it was fantastic. It was my first time going and I have no complaints. The food was superb and the service was excellent. The booths are tables are tucked away and very romantic. I would definitely go again.

Ww recieved excellent service from the moment I made reservations to being greeted personally at the door, through our meal, and when we left. It was like we were VIPs.
Food is extremely expensive for what you get, especially considering you cook it yourself. Not a good value at all. The food was just ok. Not great, not horrible. I would NOT recommend this place if you're looking for the best food.
Summary: Come for the service, not the food.

From the beginning, the service was outstanding. My wife and I were there on vacation with our two young boys. when i made the reservation all i said was that 4 would be dinning. the manager called the morning of our reservation to confirm and ask about our party if there were any children and what we would need for them. before we got there we had a high chair and booster already to go. the wait service was very accommodating to our children when all they really wanted to eat were apples. The food was wonderful and the overall experience was what anyone with young children would dream of.

The Melting Pot is always fantastic! The food is excellent, and a visit there is always an interesting experience. While our servers have always been good each visit, our server for this visit, Holly, was especially good. She was fun to talk to, informative, and offered excellent meal and drink recommendations. Though this was a romantic evening for my wife and I, we have on other occasions take small groups of friends or family with us. The Melting Pot is as versatile a social occasion as the menu is with options.

Great food. The service was awesome. Choices of healthy broth to cook food in, seasoned broth, seasoned oil or spicy broth & oils. Great choice of wines, beer and awesome mixed drinks! One of my favorite places to eat when I am in the area. Wish we had one in my hometown!
This was the 4th time we have dined at The Melting Pot in Myrtle Beach. We always stop here during our annual vacation. As usual, the food was excellent, the service was top notch and the experience was fantastic. Obviously, this meal is rather pricy, coming in at over $200 for the four of us, but we feel it is worth it on special occasions. The wait staff and management are always on their game and we have never been disappointed.

Our whole dining experience was amazing. The food was wonderful, every seat is situated so you feel like you're tucked away in a cozy nook, and the service was superb! Our waiter Shane made sure and explain everything to us and help make our first time dining at a melting pot a memorable one. Make sure you save room for dessert, it's amazing! I highly recommend this place. Five stars also for being a great romantic place to dine.
It is hard to believe that they charge $ ...
It is hard to believe that they charge $90.00 USD to cook meat in broth. What is even more difficult to believe is that people actually enjoy cooking different meats in the same bowl. The side dishes looked like my 5 year old "cooked" dinner for the family, halved potatoes and vegetables that appeared to come from a Happy Meal lunch pack. Oh yeah, there's also the delicious sauces to accompany your meat stew.
Go for dessert, maybe for cheese....save you money for Ruth's Chris.
The Melting Pot
Just an overall great experience. This was my first time dining at The Melting Pot. My wife and I had such a great time. The food was delicious, the service was excellent and the overall atmosphere was very enjoyable. It's well worth the money for sure!

We were treated with the highest quality of customer service. Our waiter Drew was excellent. He went out if his way to make our night special. The food was fresh as always and very delicious. This has to be my favorite Melting Pot location.

We had reserved this restaurant for our anniversary, and had always wanted to try it. We checked in, and was seated at the bar until our table was ready. We were given a dinner menu, and we asked for a dessert menu because we had already had dinner and just wanted dessert. The bartender informed the host of this, and we were shown to what had to be the smallest table they could possibly find. The waiter asked what type of chocolate we wanted, and acted like he was in a real hurry to get us out as soon as possible. So, to make a long story shorter, we paid close to 30.00 for one dessert, and being treated like cheap, poor, white trash. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

Never been to the Melting Pot. Thought we'd try it for a nicer place for our aniversary. The host was well dressed and polite. Stopped to check on us during the meal. Drew B, our waiter, was excellent! Friendly and knowledgeable. Will visit again when in Myrtle Beach. Food was excellent.

Now you're talking: Cardo Packtalk Black revealed with larger speakers
Cardo have released a special-edition version of their Packtalk comms kit called the Packtalk Black. Coming in black (no real surprises there) the key feature of the new unit is the 45mm JBL helmet speakers, which Cardo say delivers a higher quality sound with deeper bass than the smaller previous ones. We're told it's the first motorcycle communications unit with these speakers.
Otherwise the unit has the same features as the Packtalk Bold, although the warranty has been extended to three years rather than two. It's available now for £349.

Local filmmaker to stream “After Sandy” recovery film this Thursday
Monmouth County native Joe Minnella will be live-streaming his feature documentary that chronicles life at the Jersey Shore after Superstorm Sandy on the storm’s third year anniversary this Thursday.
“After Sandy” documents two years in the lives of several residents from the Jersey Shore and its surrounding towns during the Sandy aftermath, according to Minnella.
The film’s producer, Anthony Jude Setaro, tells us that he and Minnella began working on the documentary immediately after the storm struck.
Minnella says the film captures the recovery efforts of everyday people coming together for a common cause, while also documenting the struggles of survivors.
“After Sandy” will begin live-streaming at 8 p.m. Thursday. The filmmaker will post a link to the documentary on the Facebook page here. Watch the trailer here.

So without further ado, polish up your paddles for this devastatingly beautiful 1974 Carrera RSR Turbo 2.14, which marked a turning point in the history of competition Porsches when it introduced the use of turbocharged engines in production-based race cars.
Used by the factory for development, this handbuilt experimental 911 was campaigned as a Martini & Rossi Porsche Works entry in the 1974 season at Nürburgring, Imola and Zeltweg.
Few racing cars of this caliber have remained so correct and untouched, making it an extremely important piece of Porsche history, with an estimate to match of up to $2.25 million.
Good thing you’ve always been such a dab hand at coordinating…

15. Studies on cowpea farming practices in nigeria, with emphasis on insect pest control.
Trop. Pest Management, 37, (1), 1991, pp. 71-74
This survey was undertaken to gain an insight into current farming practices for cowpea, and to understand farmers' perceptions of the impact of insects on cowpea production, thus facilitating the development of appropriate IPM strategies that would be economic, efficient and feasible.
Cowpea was grown on smallholdings, mostly as an intercrop. In the intercrop plots the proportion of cowpea was mostly below 50%; it was grown either for grain or fodder or both. Most of the grains were for household consumption and the small excess sold in the market. Cowpea haulm was used as fodder for feeding animals and livestock. This would suggest that cowpea as currently grown is a secondary crop requiring low inputs.
There is a large deficit for cowpea grains, particularly in southern
Nigeria where it is an important component of human diets. This deficit is offset by imports from the north, and from neighbouring countries such as Chad, Cameroun and Niger. Cowpea can be grown throughout Nigeria, and the potential for increasing yields on farmers' fields is enormous. A major constraint limiting grain yields was identified by the farmers as insect pests. But the farmers were incapable of taking positive action against the pests for various reasons. These included lack of capital to purchase costly inputs, access to improved seeds with some levels of resistance to insect pests, and lack of education on pest problems and control measures. Therefore, a rational pest control approach should be integrative and include:
- educating the farmers about available control tactics;
Most of the farmers interviewed planted their cowpea as intercrops with other food crops. The majority of farmers were unaware of the beneficial implications this may have for insect pest management. If cowpea production remains at subsistence level, with low inputs, farmers should be encouraged to continue with this cropping system, i.e. intercropping.
In Minjibirr, 80% of the farmers interviewed reported that cowpea was grown for fodder to feed cattle and livestock. In the Sudan savannah, with little and infrequent rainfail, vegetation for livestock feed is hard to get. The inhabitants in this area keep large herds of livestock and wander over long distances in search of feed during the dry periods.
Therefore, fodder from crop residues is very important for the inhabitants. The emphasis on fodder in this area is in conflict with IPM practices aimed at increasing grain production. Several workers have shown that cowpea plants become more vegetative as a result of insect attack in the early growth stages. Hence, more fodder is produced when the plants are damaged by insect pests. Therefore, in breeding cowpea cultivars for this area, emphasis should be on dual purpose for both grains and fodder, and pest control strategies should focus less on reducing direct insect damage. The focus should be on selecting cultivars with ability to compensate vegetatively for damage, and also translate some of their compensatory vegetation into grain yields, thus providing moderate fodder and grain yields. The farmers' preference for early-maturing cowpea in this area minimizes crop hazards resulting from the sparse and erratic rainfall.

This dog has received superb training in all phases of obedience, protection and tracking. She is 2 years and has reached an impressive muscular size of a typical East German Border Patrol bloodline. Extremely fit with good scoring for hips and elbow, she has a well developed musculoskeletal structure of a perfect working dog. This can easily be seen with the size of the chest and paws of this dog.
Important facts about this dog that makes unique:
- She is a direct descendant of Asko von der Lutter who was a top working GSD during 1990’s to early 2000’s. There is not a single dog in Malaysia that is from the bloodline of Asko.
- Her sire is a super size male with Kkl 1, SchH3 known for producing hard dogs. He was indeed a good producer and used as a stud by various breeders in Germany for his extreme aggression.
- Weighing now 32kg with height 61cm as can be seen with proportion built
- Has passed hips and elbow x-rayed with good results which is stamped in the pedigree
- Again just like the other dogs that we have imported before, we made sure this dog is short and as such does not shed fur. With a coat of good pigmentation the owner can even have her inside their home.
- Her breed survey has given her a scoring of SG which means she has without doubt excellent physical conformance
The video below is from the sire. This is a hard dog not meant for every owner. And this is why this female is able to demonstrate such strength in her ability to work.
The photo in the Gallery below shows the development of this dog from puppyhood going through training and socialization. She photos of her strong Sire and Asko can also be seen.

Videos below show the acrobatical attack done by this dog during a protection training work. You can also view the aggression displayed by the dog when tested by an aggressor. With such size and power, she truly is danger to anyone who wishes to trespass into your home.
The dog is ready to fly anytime. It is also to be noted that the dog will be in heat in another 3 months. We would require 4 handover sessions with the new owner to familiarize in handling and commanding this dog. The handover sessions need to be done in Klang Valley. Full payment is to be made before the dog flies from Germany.
Protection Training in Germany
We had a fantastic refresher session for the Protection work. This dog has extreme aggression and very stable nerves.
We had repeated the sessions to achieve perfect barking and the dog just keeps on getting better and better during each session.
Handover Session with new owner
It was indeed very fun to carry out our handover sessions with the new owner as he has taken it very serious and genuine interest in building up the dog. The dog too has learnt very well to climatize fast to be always ready for work and play. Below are some photos on Obedience and Protection work done with this dog.
Sable Female Handover Session
Very well trained for obedience, she is able to concentrate on her work with us and the new owner. Ball focus is at maximum.
Always every looking forward for protection work, her energy for attack and bite is always at the highest. Grip is always calm and full exhibiting full confidence during protection work.
Training and coupled with good handling had made this dog a good protection dog and family pet for the new owner. He is taking good care and interest in developing the dog. In coming months we will update more information on the progress.

BROOKFIELD - The search for a new principal at Brookfield High School is in its last few weeks. Schools Superintendent John Goetz said he hopes to recommend a candidate to the school board by early to mid-August. Goetz said about 16 candidates applied for the position left vacant at the end of June by principal Richard Nabel, who resigned to become a schools superintendent in Monson, Mass. Nabel was interim principal at the high school in 1999 and became the permanent principal a year later. Brookfield High School has just over 1,000 students and a staff of about 80. The principal's position is a demanding one, said Goetz, especially since the high school is undergoing a major expansion and renovation. It is also is getting ready for its 10-year evaluation in 2007 by the New England group that oversees and accredits secondary schools. "I'm looking for a good fit," said Goetz about the qualities he wants in the new principal. Three characteristics, Goetz said, are particularly important. Most of all, he or she "has to like and connect with kids. It has to be genuine." Since the high school principal's position is demanding and requires many hours of work, Goetz said he's "also looking for someone who will make a commitment to the position." Another necessary quality, said Goetz, is the ability to work with adults. A principal has "to interact well with the staff." Many of those same qualities are what school board chairman Jerry Friedrich is seeking in a principal. Friedrich said he personally believes the spot of high school principal is "the second most important one in the district" and should be filled by someone who has the confidence of the community and the staff. A high school principal, said Friedrich, must do "a lot of interfacing" with the students and community. He or she also must "have an attitude of getting things done and making improvements." Advertising for a new principal began soon after Nabel announced he was leaving in mid-May. Two committees have been working on the search. One was a screening committee of six or seven people, said Goetz, including the school district's assistant superintendent Barbara Canavan and director of special education Lois Pernice. They reviewed the applications and made recommendations to a 12-member interview committee. The larger committee was a broad-based one, said Goetz, that included Canavan, Pernice, school board members, the teachers union president and parents from the community. That committee will recommend two or three candidates to Goetz, who said he hopes to interview them this week or next. The next regular meeting for the school board is Aug. 16, but Goetz said that if he has a recommendation ready by early August he'll ask for a special board meeting, probably on Aug. 9.

The Benagil Cave is a natural formation that has been present in the Algarve region of Portugal for centuries. There are no precise records about who discovered it, as the existence of this cave dates back to a period much earlier than modern historical records.
However, it is important to note that the Algarve region has a long history of human occupation, dating back to prehistoric times. Over the centuries, various civilizations have passed through the area, including Phoenicians, Romans, Moors and others.
It is believed that local fishermen and sailors were the first to come across the Benagil Cave, possibly during their daily activities at sea. Over time, the cave became known for its unique beauty and began to attract the attention of visitors and tourists.
In recent years, especially with the increase in tourism in the region and the power of social media, Benagil Cave has gained significant popularity and become one of the most famous destinations in the Algarve. Nowadays, many companies offer tours and excursions to visit the cave, allowing more people the opportunity to appreciate its natural beauty.
