How an Emergency Can Be Declared in India?
The eme3rgency can be a situation where the fundamental rights of the citizens are withheld, for the purpose of securing the country. The emergency is a crucial and sensitive issue, which is subject to certain rigid conditions.
What is an emergency under Indian Constitution?
The term 'emergency" has been defined by the Black law's dictionary as a failure of the social system to deliver reasonable conditions of life". An emergency is an extreme step that can be taken by the President of India to secure the country from any internal or external assault.
What are the kinds of Emergency in India?
There are three kinds of emergency under the provisions of the Indian Constitution, they are as follows:
• National Emergency: The provision of the National emergency is prescribed under Article 352 of the Constitution of India, that only in case of a serious case of threat to the security of India or any of its territories due to war, external aggression or armed rebellion. Such emergency shall be imposed by the President on the basis of a written request by the Council of Ministers headed by the Prime Minister when they are satisfied that there is a real danger thereof.
During a national emergency, the executive, legislative and financial power rests with the Centre whereas the state legislature is not suspended. The Union Government under Art.250 of the constitution gets the power to legislate in regards to subjects enumerated in the state list.
Except for Art 20 and 21, all the fundamental rights of citizens are suspended. Under Art.359 the President may suspend the right to move to the courts for enforcement of fundamental rights during the time of emergency.
Till date, the national emergency has been imposed thrice in the country- in 1962 at time of Chinese aggression, in 1971 during the Indo-Pak war, in 1975 on the grounds of internal disturbances.
• Failure of Constitutional Machinery: An emergency can be declared under the provision of Article 256 in case of the Constitutional machinery in a state. This is popularly known as the President's rule.
During the state emergency, the Union government has absolute control over the state except for the judiciary.
The three common grounds emerge that have been invoked under Art.356- breakdown of law and order, political instability, corruption and maladministration.
• Financial Emergency: The President can declare a financial emergency under the provision of Article 360 of the Constitution of India, only when he is satisfied with the fact that the financial stability or the credit of India or any part of its territory is threatened.
During the operation of a financial emergency, the executive authority of the union extends to the giving of directions to any state to observe certain specified canons or financial propriety and such other directions that the President may find necessary.
What is the procedure for declaring an emergency in India?
To declare an emergency in India, the procedure must be strictly followed as prescribed in the Constitution of India:
• National Emergency: The proclamation for emergency declaration is required to be laid before each House of Parliament. The emergency shall be automatically withdrawn after one month from the date of its issue unless it is extended by approval from the parliament. This proclamation may continue for a period of 6 months unless revoked by the president. For the further continuance of emergency, the resolution has to be passed by either house of parliament by a majority of not less than two-thirds members of the houses.
• Failure of Constitutional Machinery: If the president on Governor's report or otherwise is satisfied that the situation has arisen that the government can't be carried in accordance with the constitutional provisions then, he may issue a State emergency.
President can declare an emergency either by the report of the Governor or he himself is satisfied that the situation is such that the emergency has to be imposed. But at times, President may declare an emergency when a report is not received from the governor.
The proclamation relating to state emergency shall be laid before each House of Parliament unless both Houses approve it, the emergency shall cease to have effect after the expiry of a period of two months. Further, the duration of the proclamation can be extended to 6 months each time by both Houses of Parliament passing a resolution approving its continuance. Beyond the period of a year, the proclamation can only be continued if the Election Commission certifies that it is not possible to hold an election in the state or that territory.
This process was practiced by President Venkataraman in 1991 in the state of Tamil Nadu even though he didn't receive a report from the governor.
• Financial Emergency: For declaration of the financial emergency, it is necessary to get the proposal approved by both the Houses of Parliament. The emergency gets automatically withdrawn after the expiry of two months of the declaration unless it is extended with the approval of both the Houses before the expiry.

The growing issues of energy shortage and the environmental crisis has resulted in new challenges for the automotive industry. Conventional commercial vehicles, such as refuse trucks and delivery vehicles, consume significantly more energy than other on-road vehicles since they have the characteristic of frequent start/stop with high moment of inertia and drive at low speeds on designated city routes. It is important to make these vehicles more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly. The hybrid commercial vehicle is a promising solution to reduce emissions and to meet the future vehicle emission standard since it is generally equipped with braking energy regeneration systems to recover the kinematic loss from frequent braking. This paper introduces a type of all-wheel drive hybrid concept suggested by Dr. Leo Oriet; the new concept allows commercial vehicles to have a significant improvement in kinetic braking energy recovery without sacrificing braking safety. Without mechanical connection involved to transfer energy within the powertrain, greater powertrain efficiency can be achieved. The research is based on the all-wheel drive with a two-axles regenerative braking strategy and driveline control unit. The vehicle model and driveline control unit were executed using AVL CRUISE to demonstrate its reliable braking energy regeneration system, effective energy management and emission reduction. Finally, the power system and engine operating condition, as well as vehicle driving mode, were analyzed after simulation to ensure the whole powertrain component functions together with high efficiency and significant reliability.

The biggest sin this game committed is being a Mass Effect game. It's just another Diablo and Half Life case. Expectations too high, franchise loved too much, anything short of perfection will be labeled as "shit". Plus we live in a post Witcher 3 world, which I have not played (yet) but everywhere I go it's brought up as one of the best games ever made, so now, every other RPG will be compared to it.
When it comes to popular and loved franchises, there is this problem where people don't accept any kind of mediocrity, the game either has to be 10/10 Witcher 3-like or it is a piece of shit, rubbish, trash etc. Not ok, not good, not fun, not pretty good. Game mostly gets 7/10 scores and people freak out, like it's something bad. Many gamers are just cancer, entitled cancer on top of that.

The 2012 Geneva Motor Show has officially opened its gates to the media on the 5th of March and besides the world’s most important car manufacturers, the girls at the Swiss event managed to attract a lot of the attention.
After letting the automotive media in, the 2012 Geneva Motor Show is now getting ready for the main audience, the public, which will be able to attend the event starting with the 8th of March, but if you don’t have time for that right now there’s no hurry because the show will end on the 18th of March 2012.
An automotive event is mostly about the cars, but besides the world premieres, the dream cars and the ones we won’t probably get to drive, the girls working there as models have an important job to do, which is to attract the attention towards them, and that attention is eventually turned towards the vehicles which might get new owners, resulting in profit for the manufactures, jobs and the whole thing back and forth again.
In our opinion, the girls from this year’s Geneva Motor Show looked way better than the ones at the 2012 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit, so we just had to say that even if our job is to be impartial. But rather than talk nonsense, we’d better let you watch the photo gallery below. Enjoy!

The Army has prepared a policy for rehabilitation of Kashmiri youth who had joined militancy but are willing to surrender. It is part of the Army’s focus on surrender of local militants, but it is yet to receive the final word on the draft policy, which has been submitted to the Ministry of Home Affairs.
Speaking to some journalists, XV Corps Commander Lt General B S Raju Friday said “the policy has been made, it has been sent, it has gone up the chain” but “it has not yet come back”.
“The message I have given to the population is irrespective of the policy existing or not existing, we are ready to go on board and we will do what is appropriate. If the policy comes in, it will give us more strength in offering that as a viable option,” he said.
Raju said “there is already one policy in place” for people “who had gone across to Pakistan” and were allowed to come back. But the proposed policy, he said, “is for people who have taken up arms within the valley”. Raju said he was hopeful that “it will make some difference”.
He said “it (policy) has to be approved by the Home Ministry” and “is between the Defence and Home…

On a day when there was gloom in the principal BJPs camp,the Congress chose to send out a positive signal about its intent by effecting a much-awaited organisational reshuffle.
However,the exercise to bring in new faces and re-allocate assignments to a revamped team which was expected to usher in Rahul Gandhis team to shake up the system turned out to be largely an elaborate window-dressing. The party vice-president has reposed faith in the same old warhorses to lead the party in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.
The list of general secretaries now includes former Union minister Ambika Soni,who was given charge of Congress president Sonia Gandhis office,as well as Jammu & Kashmir,Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh,the states where the party is in power.
AICC general secretary Digvijaya Singh was divested of his charge of Uttar Pradesh but was given the equally challenging responsibility of Andhra Pradesh,along with Karnataka and Goa. Madhusudan Mistry,the emerging star in the Congress who has come to enjoy Rahuls trust and confidence,now takes charge of UP.
A close look at the other new general secretaries shows the same old preference for loyalty over performance and competence. Mohan Prakash,for instance,was promoted as AICC general secretary and given charge of many states despite his repeated failures as party in-charge of Gujarat,including in the recent bypolls. As UP Screening Committee chairman,he had faced a lot of flak for wrong selection of candidates. Though not essentially a Family loyalist,given that he was part of the JD(U) just about a decade back,Mohan Prakash has made deep inroads into Rahuls camp.
Similarly,Ajay Maken whose previous stint in the organisation as AICC in-charge of Orissa and Jharkhand had been eminently forgettable has been brought back as general secretary,to replace Janardan Dwivedi as media department chairman. C P Joshi who had a lacklustre tenure as the Rajasthan PCC chief was made to resign as Union minister Sunday and brought into the organisation as general secretary in-charge of Assam,Bihar,West Bengal and Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
Gurudas Kamat,who had defied Prime Minister Manmohan Singhs decision to give him Sanitation and Drinking Water portfolio,was rehabilitated in the party as general secretary and given charge of the crucial states of Gujarat and Rajasthan. Arun Yadav,who had been dropped as Union minister of state due to non-performance,has been retained as AICC secretary.
These leaders might have come to be known for missed opportunities in the past,but organisational or administrative competence was obviously not the criteria in their cases. Mukul Wasnik whose patronage of Ashok Gehlots camp marked his nine-year tenure as general secretary in-charge of Rajasthan got new assignments of Kerala and Tamil Nadu,among others.
The Congress vice-president appeared to be reluctant to take on the system in his party,at least until the next elections.
Instead,Rahul chose to bring in a lot of new faces as AICC secretaries,and empowered them with the charge of a state each. They include many Indian Youth Congress (IYC) leaders like former IYC election commissioner Suraj Hegde,who has been attached with the vice-presidents office.
But Meenakshi Natarajan,AICC secretary in-charge of the Youth Congress who was expected to be further promoted in the party hierarchy,was dropped altogether from the AICC team.
The list of AICC secretaries now includes Kishorilal Sharma,the high-profile aide of the Nehru-Gandhi family who looked after their pocket boroughs of Amethi and Rae Bareli. The decision to bring him to the AICC was attributed to the partys dismal show in these constituencies in the last Assembly elections in UP.
While choosing not to take on party veterans in the organisational reshuffle,Rahul also appears to have opted for a more effective and decisive intervention in the ticket distribution process. The Screening Committees set up for the five states going to polls in ensuing months include Youth Congress leaders and Rahuls close aides like Jitendra Singh,Ashok Tanwar,Manik Tagore,et al.

Gallup has a poll/study titled “In U.S., Depression Rates Higher for Long-Term Unemployed” which makes the claim that “Mental health poorest among those jobless for six months or more” as seen here:
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The longer that Americans are unemployed, the more likely they are to report signs of poor psychological well-being. About one in five Americans who have been unemployed for a year or more say they currently have or are being treated for depression — almost double the rate among those who have been unemployed for five weeks or less.
These findings are based on surveys with 356,599 Americans, including 18,322 unemployed adults, conducted in 2013 as part of the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index.
Gallup finds that unemployed Americans are more than twice as likely as those with full-time jobs to say they currently have or are being treated for depression — 12.4% vs. 5.6%, respectively. However, the depression rate among the long-term unemployed — which the Bureau of Labor Statistics defines as those who have been seeking work for 27 weeks or more — jumps to 18.0%.
Is this another incidence of common sense seems fleeting to these people? Look, nothing is more devastating to someone that feels pride in doing work and taking care of themselves than the ability to do that. None of the bullshit “safety nets” put in by liberals can compete with the ability to actually stay gainfully employed by people that value such a thing. Sure, if you are one of those perpetually sucking at the government teat types, depression will come when you no longer can mooch off the productive, but I fucking could care less about those people being depressed. In fact, I would love to see a whole lot more of that, and a lot less formerly productive people being depressed because economy crushing psuedo-marxist-fascist nanny state progressive government expansion have ravaged the employment landscape.
Nothing is free. No system that rewards negative behavior will ever do anything but encourage more of it, no matter how noble the intent behind it. Life is harsh. People that want to forget or mitigate that always make it worse. Ben Franklin pointed out how one should never trade freedom for security, because you would end up with less of either, but I think this philosophy applies in a far broader sense than he meant it (or perhaps as we understood what he meant).
Our current social system is broken. It doesn’t exist to serve those productive members of society that are temporarily afflicted with bad luck or circumstances that require them to seek help – in fact, it often punishes those people, harshly, requiring them to lose everything before they qualify for help – and actually exists to prop up an ever growing segment of people that feel entitled to the fruits of other people’s labor, simply by the virtue that they were born. Romney got demonized, obviously by the special interests that gain the most from the existing broken system, for pointing out that a very dangerously large portion of our population now votes for a living, but he was dead on. Unemployment compensation, food stamps, and any other such government assistance are a poor substitute for gainful employment, but you can’t buy votes from people that have economic freedom and don’t want to be ripped off by your unicorn fart sniffing cult.
The most important thing that our government should have been doing over the last 6 years was to make changes that would encourage economic growth and employment. Instead they pretended to implement things to “help” people that did the exact opposite and cost us economic growth. And that was all done while incurring massive and insurmountable new debt levels. Obamacare is the biggest economy killing government scam to come our way. We should get used to European level unemployment here, as this system can’t avoid causing that, while watching the quality, access to care, and improvement of care go down, while costs, waiting times, and pain go up. Don’t take my word for it: the horrible happenings that amount to the VA scandal, which was so conveniently removed from the public eye recently, is Obamacare as a Proof of Concept. And Obamacare has plenty of help from other economy crushing progressive agenda schemes and scams, like the recent EPA regulations that have continued to make the cost of energy skyrocket.
Unemployed, and those unemployed for a long time, are going to be depressed. They have been robbed of their dignity by a system that feels it is more important to protect those that vote to keep the nanny state big and fat than to actually help them.

(CBS DETROIT) – Icy and snow-covered roads are a given in Michigan for several months of the year.
So, when a driver crashes because they were driving too fast for conditions – even though they didn’t intend to – should it really be called an “accident?”READ MORE: Meet These Two Bear Cubs Who Have Become Inseparable At The Detroit Zoo
That’s just one example of why the Michigan Department of Transportation, along with partners in law enforcement, emergency medical and fire service agencies, is urging everyone to call traffic collisions “crashes” instead of accidents.
When a traffic crash is described as an “accident,” it implies that no one bears responsibility for the outcome. It also leads to the belief there was nothing that could have been done to prevent it.
Most crashes result from distracted, drugged, or drunken drivers, or unsafe or illegal actions, such as driving too fast for wet or icy conditions and failing to stop for stop signs or signals. A small percentage are the result of equipment failures, animals, or medical emergencies.READ MORE: Delta Wants Other Airlines To Share ‘No-Fly’ Lists To Help Stop Unruly Passengers
Spl/Lt. Derrick Carroll, public information officer for Michigan State Police Seventh District, and his colleagues in law enforcement have investigated many crashes in their careers and he confirms most stem from driver behavior.
“An accident cannot be reasonably foreseen. A crash is the result of choices made and a disregard for safety,” Carroll said. “That’s why we in law enforcement call it a traffic crash and never an accident.”
Emergency medical personnel, firefighters, and other first responders are changing how they talk about crashes as well.
“Many of us have used the terms ‘crash’ and ‘accident’ interchangeably for years, including those of us who see these crashes and their causes firsthand,” said Otsego County Emergency Manager and EMS Rescue Chief Jon Deming. “Talking about the true causes of crashes, and not writing them off as unavoidable, can help result in increased awareness and more careful driving.”

Want To Know How To Quit Smoking? Keep Reading
Although there are countless people who desperately want to give up smoking, many become discouraged and give up too easily. Quitting comes about through determination and a positive attitude, along with some helpful tips such as the ones down below. Follow these tips, and quitting becomes simple.
If you are sincere in your effort to quit, find a support group and stick with them. It can be helpful to you to speak to people who know what you're going through, who also can identify with the physical and emotional strain you may be experiencing. Having a support system can be invaluable. You can find support groups in places like recreational centers, churches, or community colleges.
more info Make sure you remember to take quitting one step at a time. Remember that quitting will always be a process, and it doesn't usually happen over night. Do not allow yourself to worry about what will happen next week, next month or even next year. Make efforts on a daily basis and focus on getting through each day without smoking so that this new habits becomes part of your lifestyle.
To maintain your willpower, despite intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms, look for healthy outlets for your stress. Try the gym. Consider developing a new hobby. What about getting a massage? When you have some free time, have pleasant distractions around you, such as reading an excellent book, talking with your friends, or playing new games.
To quit smoking, try creating a list of ways you can quit. Taking the time to sit down and customize your own list to your own personality, is an excellent method of quitting. Each person will find methods which work for them, while they might not work for you. It is important for you to find something that will work for you. Creating your own list does this.
It is best to avoid situations and activities where you typically would light up when you are trying to quit smoking. If you've always had cigarettes during your happy hour or with your coffee, try changing this type of routine. For example, drink your coffee on your way to work and staying away from bars will reduce your cravings.
To assist you with quitting smoking, know that your family will have to join in and help and that they know if it continues you can get very sick. Statistics say that one in five deaths in America alone are tied to smoking cigarettes. Do not become a number!
Eliminate the triggers you associate with smoking cigarettes. A couple of examples are like if you smoke after you eat a meal or while you drive your car. You have to identify these triggers and change how you respond to them so you don't automatically start smoking. Try to find some type of distraction that will serve as a substitute.
Reward each of your milestones when you are trying to quit smoking. As an example, go to a movie once you have stopped smoking for a week. Once a months has past, go out for a special meal. Continue to give yourself a reward in increasing amount to acknowledge your progress until you don't think about the urge to smoke.
Non-smokers simply can't understand why you might still want to smoke when the all the health costs are calculated. People who do not smoke are also clueless about the hard work required when quitting. In this article, however, you have found advice from people that have been smokers, people that have finally quite the horrible habit. Use their ideas and experiences to make your dream to quit a reality.

Back to School? Worried or thinking about things?
Although we can’t answer specific questions about your child and the school they go to, we have sourced the following key messages/guidance to parents, carers, associated staff to schools and teaching/faculty staff.
It is as follows from the Local Medical Committee of Derby and Derbyshire:
Schools, colleges and other educational settings are working very hard to review the government guidelines alongside their own risks assessments to determine the safety of a phased reopening of their school
These measures are overseen by the Head Teacher, the Senior Leadership and appropriate Governing Body (or equivalent) for each school’s individual circumstances.
Parents and carers need to work with schools if they have individual concerns about their child.
Our understanding is that it will be parent and carer choice as to whether they feel it is safe, and not for a GP to adjudicate.
Teachers and other employed staff will also need to work with schools if they have concerns about their own health and whether they can safely return to face to face work.
GPs have not been provided with additional/specific guidance regarding decision making for staff or students beyond current public health measures
Unfortunately, GP Practices will not be issuing correspondence on behalf of parents or carers if they do not wish to send their child to school or their child is shielding for themselves, or to protect family members who are shielding and/or vulnerable.
The government has already announced that parents will not be fined for non-attendance at this time.
We have also been given a resource to help parents and families cope with the effects of lockdown, with a number of links to self-help sites, support and interesting articles, videos and practical activities.

'That fear is still with me 14 years later': U.S Marine breaks her silence to reveal terrifying rape ordeal at hands of sergeant
- Stacey Thompson was 19 when she raped after being stationed in Japan
- The man was allowed to leave the Marine Corps after she reported it
- But she was made the center of a drug investigation and kicked out
A female soldier has revealed how she was raped by a sergeant at a Japanese Marine base after he spiked her drink.
Stacey Thompson, 32, who has decided to go public with the story after 14 years, reported the heinous crime to her superiors, but was shocked by their reaction.
The man was allowed to leave the Marine Corps and Thomspon, who was 19 at the time, was kicked out after a separate investigation for drug use stemming from that night.
Going public: Stacey Thompson has revealed how she was raped by her sergeant at a Japanese Marine base after he spiked her drinks 14 years go
Now, 14 years later, she has decided to speak out again, emboldened by the mounting pressure on the Pentagon to resolve its growing sexual assault epidemic.
Thompson is among the scores of service members who have lived in silence for decades and are now stepping forward to fight for an overhaul of the military's justice system and demand their own cases be re-examined.
Speaking out: The 19-year-old lance corporal was not afraid to report the crime but paid heavily for doing so
'To see that what happened to me 14 years ago is still continuing to happen now, for me that was a big reason why I felt the need to come forward,' she said.
'I can finally say I have the strength.'
Thompson had just been stationed at Marine base in Japan when she said her sergeant laced her drinks with drugs, raped her in his barracks and then dumped her onto a street outside a nightclub at 4 a.m.
The 19-year-old lance corporal was not afraid to report the crime but paid heavily for doing so.
The investigator called her a liar, and military authorities checked her hands for needle pricks after accusing her of using drugs.
She said she never used drugs.
She was reassigned to another unit, removed from her job and told to report to an office, where she had nothing to do for months, before she was kicked out.
She continues to suffer from her other-than-honorable discharge, which stripped her of her benefits and she believes has led to her missing out on Defense Department jobs.
'I felt the Marine Corps re-victimized me again after getting raped,' said the 32-year-old mother of three.
Thompson said she shut down after getting out, refusing to talk about her rape. She was afraid of men, especially Marines.
To this day, she keeps her dog nearby when she showers and sleeps with lights on in her house, even when her combat Marine husband is home.
'That fear is still with me 14 years later,' she said.
Retaliation: A Pentagon report released earlier this month found 62 percent of sexual assault victims in the military who reported being attacked say they faced some kind of retaliation afterward
But the fight is there too. Thompson requested her records in December. She said they showed the drug use allegations against her came from her perpetrator's friends.
Retaliation is part of a military-wide pattern that has prevented countless cases from being reported and investigated, exacerbating the epidemic, according to victims' advocates.
A Pentagon report released earlier this month found 62 percent of sexual assault victims in the military who reported being attacked say they faced some kind of retaliation afterward.
'It's an ongoing problem that is not getting better, it's getting worse, as the latest statistics out of the Pentagon show,' said Brian Purschia, spokesman for Protect Our Defenders, which has been helping Thompson.
'Unfortunately commanders are conflicted: When a sexual assault occurs on their watch, it reflects poorly on them and that's why it's shoved under the rug. The perpetrators frequently out rank the victims, which is also why there is this bias. They're going to trust people they've known - not an 18 or 19-year-old just new to the service.'
'It's an ongoing problem that is not getting better, it's getting worse, as the latest statistics out of the Pentagon show'
Brian Purschia, spokesman for Protect Our Defenders
Thompson said military culture will not change until the system changes.
She will speak Friday at a news conference in Los Angeles with Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., to show her support for her bipartisan bill that would put the cases in the hands of military trained prosecutors.
Service members now must report any crimes to the chain of command, even when their superiors have been involved.
'Too many survivors of military sexual assault are afraid to report these crimes because they fear retaliation, and they don't believe they will get justice,' Boxer said. 'They deserve a system that encourages victims to come forward knowing that the perpetrators will be brought to justice.'
Thompson is now appealing her case to the Department of Veterans Affairs and is seeking compensation related to military sexual trauma. After that, she plans to also appeal her discharge status to get it upgraded to honorable.
Several service members have filed lawsuits in the past two years, alleging retaliation after they reported being raped.
Among them was another former Marine, Elle Helmer, who said in her lawsuit that after reporting her sexual assault in 2006, the military investigated her for public intoxication and unbecoming conduct. She left the military soon after.
'God's will:' Former US Army Sgt. Rebekah Havrilla testified that she was raped by another service member while serving in Afghanistan. When she sought counseling from an Army chaplain, she said, 'he told me that the rape was God's will'
Silenced: Brian Lewis (left) said he was raped in 2000 while he served in the Navy by a non-commissioned officer who outranked him. His commanders ordered him not to report the crime. Anu Bhagwati (right) a former Marine officer, said one in three convicted offenders remain in the service
Marine Corps and Navy officials declined to comment, saying they do not discuss specific cases.
The Marine Corps has said it takes sexual assault allegations seriously and continues to improve in responding to and preventing rapes within the ranks.
All branches have been implementing sexual assault prevention programs in the past year.
The extent of the assaults came to light when the Pentagon released a report earlier this month estimating that as many as 26,000 military members may have been sexually assaulted last year and that thousands of victims are unwilling to come forward despite new oversight and assistance programs.
That figure is an increase over the 19,000 estimated assaults in 2011.
Only 3,374 of these crimes were reported, resulting in just 238 convictions. The Senate Armed Services Committee will hold a hearing next week on legislation to combat military sexual assault, including the bill sponsored by Boxer and other lawmakers.
Earlier this year Rebekah Havrilla, a former Army sergeant, told a Senate panel on Wednesday that she encountered a 'broken' military criminal justice system after she was raped by another service member while serving in Afghanistan.
When she sought counseling from an Army chaplain, 'he told me that the rape was God's will and that God was trying to get my attention so that I would go back to church,' she said.
A 'CULTURE' OF SEXUAL DEVIANCY WITHIN THE ARMED FORCES
There were nearly 800 reports of sexual assault cases in the Air Force last year, ranging from inappropriate touching to rape.
That is a nearly 30 per cent increase from 2011, when 614 cases were reported.
Many of those cases stem from a single base near San Antonio where dozens of young female recruits and airmen were victimized by their instructors.
An inquiry into Lackland Air Force Base found that 32 military training instructors allegedly engaged in inappropriate or coercive sexual relationships with 59 recruits and airmen at Lackland, according to the Air Force.
Six instructors have been convicted in courts-martial on charges ranging from adultery, rape and conducting unprofessional relationships. Nine more instructors are awaiting courts-martial. Two more received nonjudicial punishments. Fifteen 15 instructors remain under investigation.

Karl Rove is no longer in the White House and no longer holds a title or literal power in the political sphere – so perhaps his cynicism shouldn’t surprise. But his comment below (about the payroll tax cut) illuminates the cynicism (and failure) of the American political system:
Use it for political theater and then vote the extension and get out of town.
It is appalling that’s it’s acceptable to suggest, in all seriousness, that legislators should make their political decisions based not on what’s best for the American public but based on salvaging victory and political theater. And this comment arouses no shock, no surprise and no outcry.

Reconfiguring the Political: Kurdish Women’s Resistance from the Local to the Transnational
Göksel recently completed her Ph.D. studies in Sociology with a graduate certificate from the Gender and Sexualities Studies Department at Northwestern University. In the 2017-2018 academic year, she was a Visiting Research Fellow at the Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies at the University of Notre Dame. She will start a Visiting Research Fellowship position at Lund University in Sweden in September 2018, at the Center for Middle Eastern Studies. She currently works on adapting her dissertation into a book manuscript on the political mobilization of Kurdish women in Turkey, the Kurdish region, and Europe. By relying on interviews and ethnographic observations conducted in multiple field sites (Istanbul, Diyarbakır, Berlin, and Paris), she demonstrates that politically active Kurdish women act in and across borders at the intersecting realms of revolution, politics, and family. Kurdish women, she contends, reconfigure the meaning and space of the “political” in various sites from urban centers to local politics to the site of guerilla camps. Ultimately, her research suggests that Kurdish women’s gender politics transcends the bounds of resistance as it is usually thought of, by creating a bridge between revolutionary politics and everyday life.

Onsite Nitrogen Generation is widely used in the preparation, production and packaging of foods. Oxygen if present can cause spoilage, the growth of moulds, yeast and aerobic bacteria and cause impairment of taste.
Food goes bad, it goes sour, becomes mouldy and smells - it's a fact we all know. Without the use of preservatives it is a challenge for food manufacturers to prepare, store and transport their produce to the consumer in the very best condition. This is where Modified Air (MA) and Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) comes into its own.
Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) Using Onsite Nitrogen Generation
Modified Atmosphere Packaging is one of the most reliable ways of extending the shelf life of fresh food products, first used in the 1970's in the UK and Denmark for the safe transportation of meat and dairy produce, it has now become an established technology for food packaging.
Using Nitrogen to modify or substitute the atmospheric air inside of a package as a protective gas mix, it helps the product to stay fresh as long as possible - it maintains freshness, quality and extends shelf-life.
Bread Products - Packaging with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
Baked products such as tortilla wraps, baguette, bagels, pita bread, naan bread and other types of bread generally have a low moisture content and while not affected by bacterial contamination are prone to attack and spoilage by moulds. Because moulds are aerobic, removing the oxygen from their packaging and replacing it with nitrogen is an effective way of increasing their shelf life. The products do not need to be frozen and are therefore easier and cheaper to store and transport.
Cheeses and Cheese Products - Packaging with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
Hard and soft cheese can be attacked by moulds and bacteria depending on their moisture content. Fats present in the cheese can become oxidised by exposure to atmospheric air or poorly treated compressed air making them rancid with an unpleasant smell.
Both hard and soft cheese can benefit from being packed in a nitrogen enriched atmosphere. This not only improves shelf life but due to being inert, unlike carbon dioxide which can be dissolved in the water content of the cheese causing package collapse, it has a positive affect on flavour and appearance.
By using IATT Onsite Nitrogen Generators in MAP, shelf life will be extended from a couple of weeks to ten weeks for hard cheese and from days up to three weeks for soft cheese. The same benefits can be given to grated and sliced cheese products.
Fish and Seafood - Packaging with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
Fish, prawns and shrimp all have significantly different characteristics so careful consideration to packaging is vital if products are to be delivered to consumers in a good and healthy condition.
Bacteria present in raw fish and enzymes in the flesh as well as the high water content quickly degrade the product with bacterial and enzyme proliferation causing the unpleasant smell of bad fish. Fats in fish such as mackerel can become oxidised which becomes rancid adding to the problem.
Because both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria can be present in fish and seafood MAP gas mixtures need to be carefully balanced. The use of nitrogen as a constituent gas in the packaging process will improve shelf life from a few days to two to three weeks.
Food Ingredients, Fruit and Vegetables - Packaging with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
When fruit, salad, leafed and root vegetables are harvested, unlike meat and fish products they still continue to breathe or respire taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide. Low temperature can reduce the effects caused by this and help maintain the products taste and appearance. High water content and acidity also contribute to potential spoilage from yeast and moulds.
Enhanced product quality with extended shelf life is achieved by a nitrogen enriched packaging atmosphere which can extend shelf life from a few days to over eight days.
Fruits, apples, potatoes and other vegetables can be spoilt by enzyme oxidisation when the skins or flesh are damaged. Packaging products in a high nitrogen content atmosphere improves life from a few minutes/hours to several days.
Prepared Foods and Ready Meals - Packaging with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
Modern life has seen the increase of numerous ready meals in pre-prepared trays for easy heating and consumption - known as convenience foods. These along with prepared foods such as pizzas, sandwiches, meat & vegetable products and cheese based foods are all susceptible to airborne contamination from spoilage organisms.
Because of the array of different food stuffs in the one package, there are a lot of different deterioration effects that can occur while the product is in transit to the consumer. A careful gas mixture in the MAP is essential if extended shelf life is to be achieved.
Packaging Prepared Foods and Ready Meals using nitrogen and storing the products in a chilled environment can increase shelf life from a couple of days to several weeks. The flavour of pre-cooked meals that have not been oxidised in air which can cause a stale off-taste is also improved.
Snack Foods - Packaging with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
A wide array of snack foods such as potato crisps, peanuts, biscuits, dry fruit and other perishable products can benefit from being packaged in a nitrogen modified atmosphere.
Nitrogen helps maintain product freshness, quality and extends shelf-life. The nitrogen reduces the oxygen content within food packaging to prevent product deterioration which may occur due to oxidative rancidity, moisture loss or gain, bacterial and mould caused spoilage.
Nitrogen can also be used as a filler gas to create a pressurised atmosphere that prevents package collapse therefore helping to protect the product and ensuring that it is in good condition for the customer.
Raw and Fresh Meat - Packaging with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
MAP for the packaging of raw, fresh and processed red and poultry meat has been used for many years.
The preservation of red meats such as beef presents a challenge to food producers due to the fact that oxygen loving aerobic bacteria can spoil the meat while on the other hand the presence of oxygen keeps the red colour of the meat preventing it turning brown. This is caused by the reaction of the myoglobin in the tissue with oxygen to produce either red or brown pigmented forms of oxy/metmyoglobin.
Using nitrogen in the MAP process can significantly increase shelf life from a couple of days to up to eight days with refrigeration - a slow rate of spoilage and product appeal is achieved.
Processed Meat - Packaging with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
Processed meats such as ham, salami and other cold cut meats have a tendency to become discoloured in the air due to the reaction with the myoglobin in the tissue and atmospheric oxygen causing them to turn brown. Rancidity due to fat oxidisation and a green tinge of colour on the meat surface from mould or bacterial growth all add to the problems with shelf life and top quality product appearance.
MAP with high nitrogen concentrations for the packaging of processed meat products will enhance shelf life from a few days to up to five weeks.
Coffee Packaging - Packaging with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
After roasting, oxygen begins degrading coffee causing it to lose its flavour. Displacing oxygen with nitrogen during packaging process preserves the flavour and shelf life
Food Storage and Transportation Using Onsite Nitrogen Generation
Onsite Nitrogen Generation can be used in food packaging to add pressure inside the package not only to ensure that the product will stay fresh but also to prevent package collapse to help protect friable products in transport ensuring they arrive at the point of sale in excellent condition.
Liquids and Ingredients Production and Packaging Using Onsite Nitrogen Generation
When liquids and ingredients are stored in silos and tanks it is vital that they are not contaminated by atmospheric pollutants and the ingress of organisms and insects. Onsite Nitrogen Generation can be used to blanket silos and tanks to reduce the oxygen levels thus eliminating this problem.
Marine Transport with Onsite Nitrogen Generation
Marine vessels carrying food stuffs long distances through a wide range of climatic conditions can benefit by using on-board nitrogen gas generation to modify the atmosphere in the cargo holds. Onsite Nitrogen Generation eliminates the need for traditional high pressure cylinders or liquefied nitrogen gas supply whilst significantly extending the food stuffs transportation endurance.

The True Story Behind the USDA's War on A Family FarmBook - 2006
In the mid-1990s Linda and Larry Faillace had a dream: they wanted to breed sheep and make cheese on their Vermont farm. They did the research, worked hard, followed the rules, and, after years of preparation and patience, built a successful, entrepreneurial business.
But just like that, their dream turned into a nightmare. The U.S. Department of Agriculture told them that the sheep they imported from Europe (with the USDA's seal of approval) carried a disease similar to the dreaded BSE or 'mad cow disease.'
After months of surveillance-- which included USDA agents spying from nearby mountaintops and comically hiding behind bushes-- armed federal agents seized their flock. The animals were destroyed, the Faillace's lives turned upside down, all so that the USDA could show the U.S. meat industries that they were protecting America from mad cow disease-- and by extension, easing fears among an increasingly wary population of meat-eaters.
Mad Sheep is the account of one family's struggle against a bullying and corrupt government agency that long ago abandoned the family farmer to serve the needs of corporate agriculture and the industrialization of our food supply. Similar to the national best-selling book, A Civil Action, readers will cheer on this courageous family in its fight for justice in the face of politics as usual and the implacable bureaucracy of the farm industry in Washington, DC.
Baker & Taylor
The author describes how the the USDA seized and destroyed her flock of sheep because they were suspected of carrying mad cow disease.
In March of 2001 agents of the US Department of Agriculture descended on a small Vermont family farm, seizing 140 organically-raised dairy sheep imported from Britain by Linda and Larry Faillace, claiming that the sheep had been exposed to Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy, aka Mad Cow Disease. In this work, Linda Faillace tells the story of her and her husband's fight with the USDA over the seizure, in which they demonstrated that the sheep could not be infected only to have the USDA slaughter the flock anyway. The narrative is set within the context of the failure of the USDA to challenge big agro-industrial practices that do threaten the food supply with Mad Cow Disease and suggests that the USDA cynically seized the Faillaces' flock as a convenient scapegoat for Mad Cow fears that would not tarnish the US beef industry.

Blackwell North Amer
Linda and Larry Faillace wanted to start a farm. They dreamed of raising sheep and making cheese in rural Vermont. They did the research, followed the rules, and worked hard for years. Finally their family business began to succeed; healthy new lambs were born on their small hillside farm while the Faillaces and their three children learned herding, milking, and cheesemaking together.
Then, without warning, all their dreams turned into a nightmare. The U.S. Department of Agriculture told them that the sheep they imported from Europe and New Zealand (with the USDA's seal of approval) carried BSE, the dreaded "mad cow disease." After months of harassment and surveillance - including USDA agents spying from nearby mountaintops - armed federal agents seized the Faillaces' flock. Despite documented proof that the government agency's claims were not only false but impossible, the animals were slaughtered. A family farm was destroyed so that the USDA could claim it was protecting the public from mad cow disease and protecting the beef industry from an outbreak of BSE, which had sent Britain's beef business into a tail spin.
Mad Sheep is the story of one family's struggle against a bullying and corrupt government agency that long ago abandoned the family farmer to serve the needs of corporate agriculture and the industrialization of our food supply.

Giving new mothers the right to breastfeed at work: It's already the topic of a federal lawsuit in New Hampshire, now new state legislation to try and give women this protected access.
State Senator Martha Fuller Clark, a Portsmouth Democrat, says private and public employers must give this accommodation as mothers for financial reasons, often return to work right after the child's birth.
"And if we want to have a healthy population in this state, I think we need to make sure they are supported in the workplace,'' Clark said.
Meanwhile, Clark admits knowing little about Katherine Frederick, the Intervale woman who sued the state for refusing her bid to go to day care to feed her child.
A health and human services lawyer told Frederick having the baby in the work space would be too disruptive.
Frederick's lawyer, Benjamin King, said the state presented the mother with a can't win choice.
"The New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services placed her in the untenable position of having to choose between the nutritional needs of her child and her job,'' King said.
Lawyers for the state have filed in US District Court a motion to dismiss all charges.
Clark's bill closely tracks 25 states with similar laws and the affordable care act that says "every employer shall provide quote reasonable break time for an employee to express breast milk for her nursing child.''
Kate Frederick's own bid for state legislation in the name of son, Devon, fell flat in 2014.

UW Wind Symphony to Perform During Centennial Year Celebration
The University of Wyoming Wind Symphony will celebrate its centennial year with a wide range of musical performances at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 14, in the Buchanan Center for the Performing Arts concert hall.
Tickets cost $10 for the public, $7 for seniors, and $6 for UW students. For tickets and information, call (307) 766-6666 or visit the Wyoming Union or Performing Arts Center box offices.
This year marks the centennial year of the official UW band’s start. Instrumental ensembles existed in the 1890s, but the first organized band came in 1913, which was originally an ROTC unit. UW bands have grown into multiple concert bands -- the Wind Symphony, the Symphonic Band, the Community Concert Band and the Western Thunder Marching Band.
Samuel Barber’s “First Symphony” will begin the concert. The symphony will perform two early ROTC band pieces -- Percy Grainger’s “Shepherd’s Hey” and its bicentennial year performance piece, Giuseppe Verdi’s “Nabucco Overture.”
Senior music education student and band member Evan Bradley will perform a piece based on Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Tell-Tale Heart.” Bradley’s use of expansive winds and percussion meld with Poe’s poem.
The Mexican Folk Symphony, “La Fiesta Mexicana,” will highlight the evening performances with musical influences from the streets of Mexico City and Cuernavaca.
Conductor Robert Belser, director of bands, says he has “proudly seen remarkable growth in the program, both in terms of increased personnel and quality.”

The fantastic Square Metres for Butterflies project was featured on The One Show last night – see how the Edinburgh Living Landscape is helping to bring the northern brown argus…
Square Metre for Butterflies
A network of green roofs to support Edinburgh’s urban pollinators
The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE) and Butterfly Conservation Scotland (BCS) are working with a number of companies in Central Edinburgh to create a square metre for butterflies on roof gardens and green roofs. We have supplied and planted out three food plants for three species of butterfly – most notably the Northern Brown Argus – Edinburgh’s special butterfly.
For years it existed on Arthur’s Seat with Scottish butterfly watchers in the 1700’s assuming it was just a slightly different version of the Brown Argus which it closely resembles. But in 1793, closer inspection revealed that it was indeed a completely new species. After its discovery it became a highly prized addition to the collections of butterfly enthusiasts and over-zealous collecting plus land use changes at Holyrood including the building of a road through the last remaining population strongholds of this species. This meant that the iconic population of Northern Brown Argus butterflies had disappeared by 1869; less than 100 years after it was first discovered.
In 2005 the Northern Brown Argus was re-discovered at Holyrood and the population has continued to increase annually. Now RBGE in partnership with BCS as part of Edinburgh Living Landscape are welcoming this beautiful butterfly back by providing all its requirements – space, food for adults and caterpillars and shelter on roofs around the centre of the city. The other two species of butterfly are the common blue whose caterpillars feed on birdsfoot trefoil Lotus corniculatus and the small copper feeding on sheep sorrel Rumex acetosella.
Improving green roofs
Square Metre for Butterfly sites have been established where the caterpillar food plants have been established. These include the Scottish Parliament, Scottish Government at Victoria Quay, a number of private offices, churches and a respite care centre. Planting out has involved being roped up on the Scottish Parliament roof, working with staff, volunteers and landscape contractors at offices and planting out with primary school pupils at a major construction site in central Edinburgh. We are also runing follow up sessions on butterfly identification with staff so that they can monitor these areas at lunchtime and send in their records.
The aim of the project is to demonstrate the importance of these high level resources for pollinators and other wildlife, to encourage organisations and individuals to make more of their roof space and to make the case for green roofs on new developments.
Project Progress to end of 2017
This project has now delivered 9 new sites – some on roofs and others small plots at ground level. Organisations and businesses that have got involved include the City of Edinburgh Council, Royal Mile Primary School and The Glenmorangie Company Ltd. The latter included working with the Prison Service to construct the bespoke planters. The sites are being monitored in 2018 to assess what species of pollinators are using them. Initially led by the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, the project is now led by Butterfly Conservation Scotland since the end of 2017. We are working with developing new site ideas – if you have a location to propose, please get in touch.

Here we cite former chief minister Ashok Gehlot’s obsession to become ‘Crorepati’ as his recent remark is trending today. During AICC media briefing on Wednesday in New Delhi, a reporter asked him- ‘who will be the chief minister if Congress wins assembly polls?’
Citing a popular TV show ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ (KBC), Ashok Gehlot quipped – ‘Does anyone know before-hand that who will become crorepati?’ That was prompt!
Though, Gehlot’s response drew peals of laughter from those present, including Rajasthan PCC chief Sachin Pilot and spokesperson Randeep Surjewala at the PC. In addition, Surjewala boosted Gehlot’s remark by giving a metaphor to it. ‘This is like “Dhoni’s helicopter” by Gehlot Ji’ Surjewala said. AICC called the press conference on Wednesday to announce former BJP MLA Manvendra Singh’s joining to Congress.
By the way, ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati?’ is a very popular TV show which is hosted by Veteran Actor Amitabh Bachchan. In the show, participants get the cash prize by answering some tricky general knowledge questions.
Therefore we are puzzled, why Gehlot needed to throw this sort of answer for the question for chief minister’s candidacy? Does he think becoming chief minister is equivalent to becoming crorepati?
It is pretty possible folks. It is very well known that how Gehlot’s power during his tenure helped his family to get easy land occupancy and fertilizer tenders? Who can forget when the former CM used to complain about the budget shortage and empty treasure.
In fact, they had extracted people’s money in the name of various taxes. They took heavy loans for the nation and international banks. The party who ruled the state for 50 years left Rs 80,000Cr debt on the state. They neither paid loans nor completed the work. Gehlot’s government left pending work worth Rs 2.5 lakh crores on the next government. Now we know where are these Crores? and who became the ‘Crorepati’?
It is the Congress who had procured just half of the crops than the BJP has been procuring in this tenure. It is the Congress who never waived a single penny of the farmers and still try to sling the mud at Raje government. It is the Congress who never spoke or raised any question in assembly sessions in the last 5 years.
So our verdict is, the Congress is misleading public just to get the vote so that they can win and become “Crorepati”. They clearly lie in the name of development or farmers’ welfare. The level of their lie is pretty high at 95%. We leave 5% for the Congress as they have finally started talking…at least in the election season.

At Home Alzheimer’s Support with Active Personal Care
Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s disease is a 24/7 job. Learn more about how personal care for Alzheimer’s and other dementias provides extra support and care so you don’t have to do it alone.
Did you know that in 2020, according to the Alzheimer’s Association, caregivers of people with Alzheimer’s and other dementias provided approximately 15 billion hours of unpaid assistance which was estimated to be worth almost $257 billion dollars? That is about 12 times the total revenue of McDonalds in 2019.
To say there is a demand for personal assistance is an understatement. Millions of people like yourself, the loving and caring family member or friend, are giving up your time and money to help those in need. Our hearts go out to you. Thank you for all the service that you provide in caring for those afflicted by this disease.
You are not alone in this fight. Active Personal Care is here to assist you as you care for your loved ones. Our question to you is how can we help?
How does Alzheimer’s and other dementias affect caregivers?
As Alzheimer’s progresses, more and more daily tasks are affected, and the patients relies more heavily on caregivers like yourself. You help your loved ones to bathe, shower and get dressed every day. You help them feed themselves. You help them to get to the toilet and even help clean them up when they don’t make it.
As their symptoms worsen, it takes a toll on you. You may feel more stressed and depressed. Your own health may deteriorate, making you more likely to experience diseases like a stroke, diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease.
As the disease progresses, it requires more and more of your time, making it harder to balance other responsibilities you have. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, 57% of caregivers had to go in late, leave early or take time off from work to care for a loved one with Alzheimer’s. Other ways that caregivers have been affected include cutting back hours, quitting entirely, losing benefits, and even retiring early. These changes can add a financial burden on top of the current load you have.
You may feel overwhelmed. You might feel like giving up. You are not alone.
How Active Personal Care can help with Alzheimer’s Disease
At Active Personal Care, we understand the stress that comes with taking care of someone with Alzheimer’s. Our personal care aides help alleviate this burden. We are here to support you, however you need it. Our aides are available mornings, mid-day, evenings, weekday and weekends. We are available for long term, short term, or more temporary cares as well.
Some of the ways that Active Personal Care can help with Alzheimer’s include:
- Morning routines, like bathing, showering, and dressing
- Meal preparation
- Light housekeeping
- Respite care
- Safety supervision
Active Personal Care’s Tips for Caregivers
As we have said before, you are not alone. There are supports out there for you as you care for your loved ones. Some tips from the Alzheimer’s Association to help you include:
- Join a support group. You can find a local Utah group here
- Stay active. Start small. Find something that you love to do.
- Be realistic about the disease. Remember that the disease changes over time. Grieve the losses and focus on what you can control.
- Take time for yourself. You do not have to do this all by yourself. Look into respite care to be able to step away and hit the refresh button
You can learn more about caregiver health here.
Why Choose Active Personal Care?
Being a caregiver for someone with Alzheimer’s disease is a 24/7 job. It can be rewarding to help your loved one but also very time-consuming and draining. Active Personal Care is here to provide that extra support so you don’t have to do it alone. Our care plans are adapted to your needs when you need it most. If you or a loved one are looking for a little extra help in managing Alzheimer’s Disease or any other form of dementia, call today to set up your free, in-home consultation!

The Canadian Air and Space Museum (CASM) is looking to raise $500,000 to find temporary storage for two aircraft and more than 40 freight containers of artifacts.
A location needs to be found immediately to unload the 44 containers before winter weather arrives, said Ian McDougall, volunteer chair of CASM.
A temporary hangar also needs to be constructed to store the museum’s full-scale replica of the Avro Arrow and the Second World War Avro Lancaster bomber, the aircraft that used to sit atop a pole in front of Ontario Place.
The two aircraft have remained at CASM’s old location inside Downsview Park since the museum’s closure in September 2011, but it’s now time to find a new site, McDougall said.
“Downsview Park has been very accommodating,” he said. “After the fuss (of the closure) died down they couldn’t have been more helpful. We owe thanks to them. It’s their space and they rightfully want their space. Downsview Park said they would pay for the move, but there is no where to move to. The museum doesn’t have money.”
Ten businesses were served eviction notices by Downsview Park in September 2011, indicating space must be vacated by March 31 of this year to make way for a four-pad hockey rink, set to open in September 2013.
CASM is eyeing a potential new home on the south side of Lester B. Pearson International Airport, McDougall said, adding plans to construct a new museum on the empty field would be some time down the road.
“We’re looking for a temporary home and we need to do it as quickly as possible,” he said. “We’re talking about more than simply a museum. It reflects a hugely significant part of the industrial and military history in the area.”
CASM, formerly the Toronto Aerospace Museum, was housed in the original 1929 home of the de Havilland Aircraft of Canada Ltd. and also the original home of Canada’s leading space technology company best known as SPAR, according to the museum’s website. It also housed several artifacts and planes, including a replica Avro Arrow.
To donate to the fundraiser visit www.indiegogo.com/casmuseum or mail cheques made out to Canadian Air and Space Museum to Canadian Air and Space Museum, 65 Carl Hall Rd., Box 1, Toronto, ON, M3K 2E1.
