Deportivo 1-1 Atletico Madrid: Fernando Torres 'conscious and stable' in hospital following horror head injury as Antoine Griezmann scores stunner to earn Diego Simeone's men a draw
- Fernando Torres has been taken to hospital in Spain following horror injury
- Striker appeared to be knocked unconscious in aerial challenge on Thursday
- He hit his head hard on the turf, sparking tremendous concern among his team
- Gabi was bitten by Torres as he tried to prevent striker from swallowing tongue
- Atletico Madrid have reported their player is conscious and stable in hospital
- Antoine Griezmann rescued Atletico a point from a 1-1 draw at Deportivo
Fernando Torres has confirmed he is okay in hospital after his horror head injury overshadowed Atletico Madrid's draw against Deportivo.
There was tremendous concern for the forward late on in the La Liga clash following what seemed to be a clash of heads with Alex Bergantinos, with Torres rushed to hospital for scans after being knocked unconscious.
However, he took to Twitter to tell fans not to be too worried over his condition, writing: 'Many thanks to all for your concern for me and for your messages of encouragement. It was just a scare. I hope to return very soon!'

Goal: Griezmann 68
The Spanish striker appeared to be knocked out in an aerial challenge with Bergantinos in the 85th minute of the clash on Thursday evening, hitting his head hard on the turf upon landing.
Players from both sides immediately showed tremendous concern for Torres's health, with Atletico team-mates Gabi and Sime Vrsalijko trying to prevent the forward from swallowing his tongue.
They were later praised by the doctors treating Torres, with one medical professional quoted by Goal as saying: 'Gabi even took a bite from Fernando when opening his mouth.
'What he and Vrsaljko did was perfect.'
Medics from both dugouts attended the stricken former Liverpool star and he was later taken to hospital.
While Torres was receiving treatment, Atletico players were visibly shocked by the nature of the injury.
Jose Maria Gimenez appeared to be struggling to hold back tears on the touchline as doctors did their best for the striker.
An ambulance was brought onto the Raizor pitch to collect the forward, who was placed in a neck brace as a precaution before being rushed to the nearest hospital to the stadium.
Atleti later confirmed that their player was okay.
They tweeted: '(Fernando Torres) suffers a head injury. He was rushed to the hospital to undergo tests. He will spend the night in hospital for observation.'

Torres took to social media on Thursday night to urge his supporters not to worry
Muchas gracias a todos por preocuparos por mí y por vuestros mensajes de ánimo. Ha sido sólo un susto. Espero volver muy pronto! ・・・ ¡BUENAS NOTICIAS!: A @FernandoTorres se le ha realizado TAC craneal y cervical. No hay alteraciones ni lesiones traumáticas está consciente y orientado, pasará la noche en observación en el hospital por protocolo médico. ¡Gracias por todos los mensajes de apoyo! - GOOD NEWS!: @FernandoTorres has undergone a cranial and cervical CT. There are no alterations nor traumatic injuries, conscious and lucid, he will spend the night in hospital for observation as per medical protocol. Thanks for the messages of support for Torres. - BONNE NOUVELLE: La tomographie crânienne et des cervicales faite à @FernandoTorres n'a montré ni altération ni lésion traumatique est conscient et orienté, passera la nuit à l'hôpital suivant le protocole médical. Merci pour tous vos messages de soutien
They later reported that Torres was 'conscious and stable'. CT scans revealed no major damage.
Atletico coach Diego Simeone had said in his post-match press conference: 'We still don't have any official information but he's conscious.
'Worried, nervous... those are the feelings after he suffered such a heavy blow.
'We heard the blow from the bench, we saw how he fell and we were afraid. We didn't know if that noise was Fernando's neck or not.
'They are unfortunate situations that happen in matches and we're hoping for the best for Fernando.'

Earlier, Griezmann had saved Madrid from an embarrassing defeat with a spectacular equaliser.
The Frenchman made a chance out of nothing from fully 30 yards in the 68th minute to cancel out Florin Andone's first-half strike for the home side.
After what happened to his team-mate, however, Griezmann was in no mood for discussing his goal post-match.
'I don't really care now about football or the result, (I'm) only worried about Fernando's health at moment,' he said.
'(I) hope he's okay and back soon.'
The draw means Atletico have closed the gap on third-placed Sevilla to nine points, while Deportivo move a point clear of Granada.

A theoretical model based on mechanics and machine dynamics is presented to describe the effect of machine stiffness on surface integrity of ground silicon nitride. The model accounts for both the static and dynamic structural loop stiffnesses of a precision-grinding machine. Experimental results are also presented to verify the model. A unique workholder with an adjustable compliance is used to achieve a structural loop stiffness in the range of 5–40 N/μm. Silicon nitride is ground with cup-type diamond wheels of vitrified and cast iron fiber bonds. To effectively stabilize the cutting performance of a cast iron fiber bond wheel, the ELID technique is adopted for in-process dressing. The damage depth of ground workpieces is assessed against machine stiffness. The modeling and experimental results demonstrate that there exists a critical machine stiffness in grinding of ceramics. When machine stiffness is higher than the critical stiffness, no chatter should occur in the grinding process. In this case, damage depth increases with the increase of set depth of cut. In contrast, if machine stiffness is lower than the critical stiffness, chatter can occur in the grinding process that may induce grinding damage. The model can also be used to predict the critical machine stiffness for other types of structural ceramics.

He did also leave me with a lot of questions and details that I would have liked to have known. A fascinating history blending insightful narrative with vivid detail, and boasting over illustrations–including 24 color plates–and 30 maps, The Ancient Celts is an indispensable guide to this age-old, intriguing culture. The languish is a bit complicated and academic and it shows that he an archaeologist because he goes much on the archaeological finds but doesn’t disregard the written sources available from the Romans and then Greeks but blend them in confirming what’s This was for me the main course book, the or version, at the course “Celtic History and Culture” as Uppsala university in Sweden.

Beginning in the Hungarian plains of B. This is how literature of fact written by a professional for usual people should look. This book has been very informative. He doesn’t seem to make any of his own hypotheses about the origin of anient ancient Celts nor about their daily lives, beliefs, or behavior, which he’s qualified to do, and which I’d love to hear. We can see this in the shapes of sacred groves and in the circles of standing stones [stelae].

Tracing the cunlife of chiefdoms and the bary to third-century migrations as far as Bosnia and the Czech Republic, he assesses the disparity between the traditional story and the most recent historical and archaeological evidence on the Celts.

I was hoping that this book would fill in gaps about cujliffe of the most prominent cultures during Europe I loved the two previous Delts books that I read–Facing the Ocean surprisingly out of print already and Britain Begins. Want to Read saving…. The book also discussed oppidawhich were nucleated settlements, Celtic social oranization. Whether this spread to the Funliffe zone was due to migration or by the assimilation of the Celtic culture and language proposed to be the lingua franca by the native peoples due to the extensive trade of metals is left an open question.
The biggest flaw this book has is, in spite of the interesting sub This huge books best feature is it is full of pics of Celtic artifacts, maps, and illustrations. The author is able to present both archaeological and literary sources on Ancient Celtic societies, covering different issues such as the interactions between Greeks, Romans and Celts, Celtic society, life, religion, social structure and organisation, and many others in a very attractive way.
Great and comprehensive book. Sep 29, Maya rated it it was amazing Shelves: The third tool is the linguistic and vernacular records.
The book is a very understandable, as the author couples Roman historical text and archeological fact, addressing the takeover of the regions above the Etruscans, and the intermingling of the Celtic tribes with those of the Roman populace. From the picture that emerges, we are – crucially – able to distinguish between the original Celts, and those tribes which were “Celtized”, giving us an invaluable insight into the true identity of this ancient people.
That said its still something you probably would want to have on your shelf if you are interested in the Celts.
The Ancient Celts – Barry W. Cunliffe – Google Books
For two and half thousand years the Celts have continued to fascinate all who have come into contact with them. There brry no discussion topics on this book yet. As the author states: An excellent book which I read after Nora Chadwick’s work. The language is dry and it’s difficult to find concrete information with misleading titles of each section. The author was trying to give a picture of who the Ancient Celts were and in doing so he used three main tools.

Sep 15, Sofia rated it did not like it. It reflects a Celtic epic. Cunliffe’s book is a standard work of reference for years to come. While the author states that much of the history of the Celtic tribes written by these Roman Historians was probably prejudiced by their romantic view of Roman conquest, he is quick to offer archeological evidence which could support their observations of the Celtic tribes and their engagement with the Roman Army.
Jun 21, Julie rated it it was amazing Shelves: Drawing on a wealth of recent archaeological findings, Cunliffe reveals how this loose band of nomads evolved from migratory barbarians into cepts traders and artists, inhabiting virtually every corner of Europe north of the Po.

The most important preservation project in the history of Home Forward.
85 Stories is a multi-year initiative to renovate and preserve Home Forward’s existing portfolio of rent-assisted homes. 85 Stories impacts the lives of over 5,000 Multnomah County residents. It supports our commitment to serve residents and steward public resources wisely.
Our preservation effort began in 2013 with ten apartment communities that house seniors and people with disabilities, our most vulnerable residents. Home Forward was granted approval to change the operating subsidy at the properties from public housing to project-based Section 8 rent assistance through a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) program called Section 18. This allowed us to leverage equity and debt to make the necessary capital improvements. The list of improvements was all-encompassing, including new roofs and new windows, new heating systems and electrical work, hot water heaters and storage systems, ventilation systems, seismic upgrades, green building features, and cosmetic upgrades to community rooms and public areas. By improving the physical condition of the buildings, Home Forward was able to reduce operating costs, enhance property value, and ensure the stability of these affordable housing community assets. Since then, we’ve been working to repair, renovate, and redevelop the rest of our public housing portfolio.

The one job that even the best mechanics avoid is wiring. Those worries are now over with help from the revised edition of “Advanced Custom Motorcycle Wiring.” This book uses Chapter One to cover the basics of DC electricity and Chapter Two to explain batteries, starters, and alternators. It goes on to cover the schematics and factory harnesses for both early and late-model Harley-Davidsons.
Jeff Zielinski, owner of NAMZ Custom Cycle Products and wiring harness and component designer, is the author of this revised Motorcycle Wiring book. In addition to a discussion of factory Harley-Davidson wiring harnesses, Jeff describes at length the various harness options available to a person building a custom bike.
Is it better to build a harness from scratch, or install a ready-made harness kit? What’s the easiest way to route all those wires through the top frame tube and the handle bars? These questions and many more are answered in this book.
Inside you will find over 350 color photos and wiring illustrations spread across 144 pages. Everything from basic chopper wiring diagrams and schematics to complex factory schematics – as well as a complete, start-to-finish harness install sequence.

New research has revealed that blueberry molecules make bacteria more susceptible to antibiotics and reveal the dual mechanisms they use.
As the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) assume that antibiotic resistance is “global public health.”
Excessive use of antibiotics in humans and animals has led to the development of drug-resistant “superfusion”. Density, global migration, and poor hygiene are just a few reasons why the problem of drug resistance is increasing.
Some researchers went even further to warn that “we are on the verge of returning to the preantibiotichna era, in the light of infections that can become deadly.”
In this context, scientists are trying to find innovative and sometimes unconventional solutions using insects or even mucus to find compounds that can be fatal to supervisors.
Now researchers from McGill University in Quebec, working with INRS in Montreal – both in Canada – have decided to investigate the potential of blueberries to fight infection.
Natalie Tuffendji, Professor of Chemical Engineering at McGill, is the lead author of this study. Tuffengji and colleagues found that cranberry extract makes bacteria more susceptible to antibiotics. The authors publish their results in Advanced Science Magazine.
Cranberry extract stops antibiotic resistance
The widespread belief that cranberry juice helps treat urinary tract infections (UTI) led by prof. Tufendzhi and his team studied blueberries. Thus, scientists chose bacteria that cause UTIs, pneumonia and gastroenteritis, including Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli for this study.
They placed blueberry extract in bacterial cultures and found that blueberry molecules made the culture more susceptible to antibiotics in two ways.
First, blueberry extract makes bacterial membranes more permeable to antibiotics. Second, blueberry extract destroys the mechanism by which bacteria are used to remove antibiotics.
“When we treat bacteria in the laboratory with antibiotics, they become immune over time,” said Prof. Tuffendji.
Dual action of cranberry extract makes it effective even at lower doses. After finding this mechanism in cell culture, the scientists repeated the results in insect patterns.
“This is a very interesting result,” said study co-author Eric Desio, a microbiology professor at INRS, who continued, “Activities that work through molecules called proanthocyanidins work together to achieve this result.”
“We need to do more research to find out which are the most active in terms of synergy with antibiotics,” Professor Déziel added.
Tufendzhi repeated the same idea and said: “We want to continue this research. Our hope is to reduce the dose of antibiotics used for the treatment of humans and animals as part of efforts to combat antibiotic resistance.”

Mast Cell Responses to Viruses and Pathogen Products
Jean S. Marshall, Liliana Portales-Cervantes, and Edwin Leong
"Mast cells are well accepted as important sentinel cells for host defence against selected pathogens. Their location at mucosal surfaces and ability to mobilize multiple aspects of early immune responses makes them critical contributors to effective immunity in several experimental settings.
However, the interactions of mast cells with viruses and pathogen products are complex and can have both detrimental and positive impacts.
There is substantial evidence for mast cell mobilization and activation of effector cells and mobilization of dendritic cells following viral challenge. These cells are a major and under-appreciated local source of type I and III interferons following viral challenge.
However, mast cells have also been implicated in inappropriate inflammatory responses, long term fibrosis, and vascular leakage associated with viral infections.
Progress in combating infection and boosting effective immunity requires a better understanding of mast cell responses to viral infection and the pathogen products and receptors we can employ to modify such responses."

Mast cells and influenza A virus: association with allergic responses and beyond
￼Amy C. Graham
"Influenza A virus (IAV) is a widespread infectious agent commonly found in mammalian and avian species. In humans, IAV is a respiratory pathogen that causes seasonal infections associated with significant morbidity in young and elderly populations, and has a large economic impact.
Moreover, IAV has the potential to cause both zoonotic spillover infection and global pandemics, which have significantly greater morbidity and mortality across all ages.
The pathology associated with these pandemic and spillover infections appear to be the result of an excessive inflammatory response leading to severe lung damage, which likely predisposes the lungs for secondary bacterial infections.
The lung is protected from pathogens by alveolar epithelial cells, endothelial cells, tissue resident alveolar macrophages, dendritic cells, and mast cells. The importance of mast cells during bacterial and parasitic infections has been extensively studied; yet, the role of these hematopoietic cells during viral infections is only beginning to emerge.
Recently, it has been shown that mast cells can be directly activated in response to IAV, releasing mediators such histamine, proteases, leukotrienes, inflammatory cytokines, and antiviral chemokines, which participate in the excessive inflammatory and pathological response observed during IAV infections.
In this review, we will examine the relationship between mast cells and IAV, and discuss the role of mast cells as a potential drug target during highly pathological IAV infections.
Finally, we proposed an emerging role for mast cells in other viral infections associated with significant host pathology."
Apoptosis and Pro-inflammatory Cytokine Response of Mast Cells Induced by Influenza A Viruses
Bo Liu, Di Meng, […], and Ming Wang
"Influenza A virus (IAV) is one of the most common respiratory pathogens. It is notorious for its unique potential to cause global pandemics and epidemics in animals and humans of all age groups.
It has considerable morbidity and high fatality rates. Several studies suggest that fatal lung tissue injury triggered by the cytokines dysregulation (called “cytokine storm”), which is produced by excessive immune inflammation response, makes a critical contribution to the mortality of influenza –.
Mast cells are enriched at tissue sites that interface closely with the external environment and so a crucial sentinel role in host defense against pathogens, such as bacteria, parasites, and viruses –. The role of mast cells during influenza virus infection has been ignored until recently. Data from this and other research groups have demonstrated the involvement of mast cells in IAV infection –.
One recent study by the present team has shown that very large numbers and very high levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines are produced and secreted in P815 mast cells during IAV infection (unpublished data). This indicates that mast cells may contribute to the pathogenesis of IAV infection."

Doctors warn diabetics are dying due to rationing insulin. (abc3340.com)
Posted by ABC3340. Written by Cynthia Gould
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. —
Choosing between medicine or food on the table is a horrible dilemma many diabetics are facing today, as the cost of insulin becomes unaffordable. Patients who ration their medications end up in the hospital or even face death, doctors say.
On the surface their lives may look picture perfect, but underneath, Jennifer Brown and Chloe Grill share a similar struggle. Both are diabetics who have been hit hard by the dramatic, unexplained rise in the cost of insulin.
“What used to be $50 a vial is now $300,” explains Brown. Even with insurance, they have high deductibles. Brown spends about $900 a month out of pocket on insulin, plus money for all the supplies she needs.
“This month my test strips have gone up $20,” says Grill. Her insulin runs $300 a month out of pocket. For these young mothers, insulin in not an option. Without it, they will die.
Insulin is now more expensive than gold. “[Insulin] is 100 years old and the patent sold for dollars,” remarks Brown. For the estimated 26 to 30 million people living with diabetes, buying the life-saving medicine has become a monthly struggle.
Grill tells us friends trade and share supplies, helping each other get by. “Some of them had to go to the hospital because they’ve run out too soon and can’t make it to the next paycheck,” she explains.
News of deaths around the country due to the lack of insulin is raising alarm. Congress is calling on the three top manufacturers to explain pricing and why Americans pay so much more than diabetics in other countries. Both the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) and the Senate Committee on Finance have several upcoming hearings on this issue.
“These same companies sell the same insulin to other countries for a fraction of the price,” says UAB’s Dr. Fernando Ovalle, with the Division of Endocrinology & Diabetes. He says there are cases in the Birmingham metro area where patients have died or ended up in the hospital risking vision loss, kidney failure and heart problems.
According to Dr. Ovalle, along the insulin supply chain from manufacturer to patient, everyone is taking a cut driving up the prices. Some point to the pharmacy benefit managers, known as PBMs, as a major factor in the increase.
“Since they got involved, things got worse. The way they make deals is very secretive,” remarks Dr. Ovalle. Experts are asking for more transparency in how insulin is priced. Estimates are in 10 years, 20 percent of Alabamians will have diabetes. Therefore, the demand for insulin will continue to grow.
We reached out to Alabama’s Congressional Delegation for comment on the crisis. Here are the responses we received:
From Senator Richard Shelby:
“The rising cost of prescription drugs remains a serious concern for many Americans. It is critical that we find solutions to lower overall health care expenditures, ensuring that prescription drugs are reasonably priced. I look forward to working with my colleagues to examine proposals that help address this pressing issue.”
From Senator Doug Jones:
“The sky-rocketing price of insulin is absolutely outrageous and it has to stop. This could have life or death consequences for Alabamians. Right now, I am working with my colleagues on the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee on legislation to lower out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs. A number of other congressional committees are finally holding hearings on this issue and I know the Administration is also looking at ways to lower prices through regulatory changes. We all have a responsibility to take action to ensure life-sustaining medicines, especially drugs like insulin that have been available for decades, are affordable for all.”
From Congresswoman Terri Sewell:
“For millions of Americans, access to insulin is a life or death issue. As a member of the Ways and Means Committee and the health subcommittee, I will be working on many policies this year aimed at addressing the rising costs of prescription drugs, including insulin,” Sewell said. “Alabama’s 7th Congressional District has one of the highest rates of insulin-dependent diabetics in the country. For these Alabamians, Congress can – and must – tackle this problem by lowering patient cost-sharing for insulin and expanding access to comprehensive health care for people living with diabetes.”

Demonstrating landscape and ecology values in stormwater wetlands
Presented to Council as a pioneering project for exploring landscape and ecology values in stormwater management, Croftfield Lane became a significant project in changing how the design and implementation of stormwater wetlands can be enhanced to provide multiple benefits for the community.
The project brief was to deliver a highly functioning and easily operable stormwater wetland. As a demonstration project, the design stripped back the landscape to its pure functions to derive a simple and expressive site geometry. Layer after layer of landscape materials were added – landform, planting, and structures, to enhance stormwater function while additionally providing an expressive landscape that could be engaged with by the public.
The project was delivered in late 2016 and received an Award of Excellence in the infrastructure category at the 2016 NZILA landscape architecture awards.
The judges acknowledged the complexity of the project, recognising that “A stormwater retention basin on an awkwardly-shaped piece of land has been transformed into a sophisticated haven of fluid transitional space, by expertly weaving complex and multiple technical challenges of water retention and cleansing. Croftfield Lane now provides an intriguing route in and out of the Wairau Valley Commercial Precinct.
The base planning is clever, inviting and engaging to the user providing numerous options to move and interact within this small space, from the expedient to the imaginative. The palette used is restrained to what feels more like a selection of textures and forms than materiality. The client and design team are commended for their vision.”

How do you know if you blew your transmission?
If your vehicle shifts gears without warning at any speed or refuses to go into any gear, the transmission is either about to fail or has already failed.
If the gear shift in your car is difficult to get into gears, causes grinding noises, or just won’t move at all, the transmission is dying or has died..
How do you rev the engine while driving?
If you’re driving manual, you can simply press the clutch in, and give the gas pedal a nice big press. This will rev the car, however because the transmission is disconnected from the engine, it will not affect the speed of the car.
Can driving fast damage your car?
If you go faster, your engine will use more gas or diesel per mile driven and your transmission will wear out. Also, when you go so fast it means extra stress on all the small moving parts of your engine, and that can cause it to wear out more quickly.
What kills a car engine?
Aggressive driving kills your engine very fast. Hard acceleration puts stress on the engine and other components. If you are not racing there is no need to accelerate hard. Driving short trips will not allow the engine to warm up as required and will put the unnecessary wear on the engine and the car`s components.
What will seize an engine?
Engines seize from mechanical failure. In most cases, this comes from a lack of oil. The oil may not be circulating properly or you may have no oil. When this happens, there is no internal lubrication, so the metal parts create friction as they rub against each other.
When should I put my car in low gear?
Putting your vehicle in low gear is recommended if you are about to go down a steep hill, or about to descend on a long downgrade. Learn more about using low gear for any challenging road conditions or off-roading around Philadelphia, and contact Land Rover West Chester if you have any questions!
Is driving a car hard bad?
Hard acceleration burns a ton of fuel (ok, maybe not for a Tesla) and places heavy load on drivetrain components. Full-force stops cause rapid wear to the brake pads and rotors. Resist the urge to drive like this.
What happens if you put coke in a gas tank?
The chemical composition of the drink when mixed with the gasoline in a car seems like it might turn the whole mess into a caustic sludge that would inevitably clog up an engine like nothing else possibly could.
What causes engine to die?
Common reasons include an empty gas tank, a faulty fuel pump, a bad ignition coil, fouled spark plugs, water in the fuel, or a failing sensor. An engine stall is never fun.
What happens when you drive your car in the wrong gear?
Shifting between reverse and drive (and vice versa) in a car fitted with an automatic gearbox is really bad for the transmission. … Shifting gear before coming to a stop will cause wear and tear on the transmission band, rather than the brake discs and pads, which are serviceable items.
How long do Clutches usually last?
approximately 60,000 milesMost clutches are designed to last approximately 60,000 miles before they need to be replaced. Some may need replacing at 30,000 and some others can keep going well over 100,000 miles, but this is fairly uncommon.
Is it bad to start your car and drive right away?
Warming up your car in winter before driving it is actually terrible for your engine. According to Popular Mechanics, driving your car right away is the fastest way to warm up your engine, and will actually prolong the life of your engine instead of letting it sit idly before driving.
Does driving high revs damage engine?
If you rev your engine to high RPM on occasion and only keep it there for brief periods of time, generally this is not going to cause much damage to the engine. … High RPM causes more wear on the engine components than lower revs. Every engine has a point where it will come apart internally at a certain speed.
What does it mean when your engine revs while driving?
Transmission slipping, or gears slipping, is a common transmission problem and a real cause for concern. … If your engine revs up as you press down on the accelerator but your vehicle doesn’t accelerate as per usual or as you would expect, it’s a troublesome sign that can lead to a full-blown transmission failure.
What’s the worst thing to put in your gas tank?
If you are just mischievous and does not really want to destroy the engine, use sugar or any other sweet, sticky liquid. Sugar in a gas tank is an urban legend and it will clog up the fuel filter, just like other sticky sweet liquids such as honey, molasses, waffle syrup, pancake syrup, and similar things.
Why is my car revving but not moving?
Q: The car is revving but not moving properly This may be related to a couple of different things such as low transmission fluid or a faulty transmission control module. As you may know, automatic transmissions use pressurized hydraulic fluid to change gears.
Does driving in low gear hurt your car?
Low gear causes less fuel to be taken by the engine, which both slows the car down and increases engine torque. Even though most drivers who own a car with an automatic transmission tend to never use the low gear, there are situations where it can be helpful to do so.
How do you secretly disable a car?
Remove the ECU and immobiliser , usually 4–8 bolts and a few plugs . the starter will still spin the engine but it will not start just spin till the battery dies. The best way to temporarily disable a a csr is to just remove fuses of the car or else remove the stater fuse … Pull a fuse out of the fuse box.
How long can your car sit without being driven?
But when your vehicle is sitting, your car’s battery will likely go dead in just two or three months. Why? Because when you drive your car, the vehicle’s alternator continually recharges the battery to replenish the power you’re using. No driving means no charging — and a dead battery.
What happens if you put salt in a gas tank?
Salt will not dissolve in gasoline but it will in any water in the tank. Then it will slowly corrode the bottom of the tank. … Salt (or sugar) doesn’t disolve in gasoline. Therefore it could get past the fuel filter and into the cylinders, thus scratching the cylinder walls and ruining the piston rings.

At a time when many people are unable to find common ground and points of contact with their own kind, an American painter and sculptor Michael grabs (Michael Grab) is able to negotiate even with kamnyami.
< br />
In the hands of an artist, under his guidance, stones, bricks, boulders and river pebbles can prodelyvat breathtaking stunts, overcoming gravity and the incredible lining installation. It may seem that here was not without glue, rope or wire, but no, Michael works honestly, so that the stones balancing his land art held literally on fair slove.
Children's interests to put a handful of pebbles into the sea and piles later turned into a large-scale art project Gravity glue, which for several years in a row the adult Michael grabs devotes all his spare time. His specialty - a land art, only stones and nothing but nih.
Taking a walk along the rivers, lakes and ponds, sunbathing on the coast, he always finds the opportunity to build from stones lying near the water a few intricate figures astounded bystanders and those who came specifically to observe the work of the master. Few believe that there are no tricks, and Michael does not use any aids to strengthen stone installations. But after he built a tower in front of them, doubts dissipated, giving way to admiration and vostorgu.
The artist likes to work at home in Colorado. There, he has already become a local celebrity, and the banks of reservoirs have seen a lot of installations, built in spite of gravity. Michael grabs the handles gravitational force as if they were good friends, and she is always ready to make concessions to the old fellow. And if she protects the delicate structures of stone, without letting them fall, and fall to chasti.
However, be that as it may, the land art can not be considered durable, and even installation, managed to overcome gravity, soon lose their shape, succumbing to the effects of water and wind, rain and snow. But their pictures are stored for a long time, giving people the opportunity to again and again to consider the amazing work of American artist while admiring and disbelief.
The site art project called Gravity glue you can see numerous installations grab Michael, built in the years of his hobbies land-art. A video will be the proof that they really built deft hands of the artist, and really only stones.

Kobach campaigns, saying conservative values are under attack
U.S. Senate candidate Kris Kobach laid out his conservative agenda to voters Friday morning in Ottawa.
Kobach met with supporters at the Painted Lady Bed & Breakfast, Seventh and Cedar Street in Ottawa.
The coronavirus pandemic has not only slowed down political campaigns but put a strain on the economy, Kobach said.
“It is a double whammy for businesses,” Kobach said. “We had the worst unemployment since 1938, when the Great Depression happened. We have the worst unrest on the streets since 1968.
“There are a lot of things going that have political roots. We have to stand by our conservative bedrock values, whether it is capitalism, Second Amendment rights, or the right to worship freely. All of these have been under attack.”
Kobach’s campaign is built on three components: immigration; constitutional freedom; and less government, more liberty.
The former law professor at University of Missouri-Kansas City hopes to be the voice on immigration for President Donald Trump.
“President Trump does not have anybody in the Senate to carry the ball for him on immigration,” he said. “I recognize when you carry the ball, you are going to get tackled. We need somebody there to move the conservative agenda on immigration, especially now.”
He said the pandemic gave the government lessons on where problems exist on controlling the U.S. borders.
“There are two big lessons the pandemic showed us: borders matter,” he said. Our southern border remains wide open. That is Congress' fault. We have to get that wall built. We are a long way off.
“The second is people need to get back to work. We need somebody to stand firm and not do whatever some business PAC tells them to do.”
The second initiative is constitutional freedom. He said those freedoms have come under threat in the COVID-19 period.
“We need people in the U.S. Senate that will really hold the line to scrutinize (judicial appointments),” Kobach said. “You need the Senate to be the final backstop.”
The third part of his agenda is shrinking the federal government. He said he cut the Secretary of State’s budget nearly in half during his eight years in office.
Kobach said the $3 trillion stimulus package demands that spending also be cut.
“All the more important we have serious cost cutters,” he said. “We need conservative votes and leadership in the Senate now more than ever.”

By Lee Rhiannon –
November 27 marks a very important and hauntingly sad day for Tamils all around the world including in Sri Lanka.
In Tamil the day is known as “Maaveerar Naal”. Veerar means “warrior or hero”. Maa means “great”. Naal means ”day”.
It is a day on which millions of Tamils will remember the hundreds and thousands of brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, children and the elderly who sacrificed their life in the 26-year long struggle for their freedom.
Last year on this day I joined around 2000 Tamils in Sydney’s west to pay respect to the courage, strength and sacrifice of the Tamil people. The overwhelming distress and pain of the Tamil community as they stood in line to lay down a flower in respect for the fallen was a piercing emotional experience for me. I am in parliament today so I will not be able to join the community. But I still stand beside them as their friend on this significant day.
I have come to know the Tamil community in Sydney very intimately and I know that their grief and feeling of betrayal by the international community, world leaders and the United Nations is still very raw.
These emotions are perpetuated by the discrimination and brutality the Tamils continue to face at the hands of the Sri Lankan government, including the sexual abuse and exploitation of women, imprisonment, land grabs, torture, assassinations and kidnappings.
Australia’s continuing “friendly” relations with Sri Lanka, in order to stop Tamils from fleeing their country, is a matter of despair. The Australian government and Opposition’s discriminatory views and actions towards Tamil asylum seekers who do manage to make the dangerous journey here is shameful.
The recent assassination in France of a French Tamil community leader is an example of the ongoing challenges that the diaspora Tamils face.
Over the weekend, thousands of Tamils across France and Europe gathered in Paris to pay their respects to Mr Nadarajah also known as Parithi who was murdered on November 8.
It is alleged that his killing was orchestrated by Sri Lankan government officials. When investigating these crimes I trust that the French authorities will be very thorough and transparent with any information that may indicate it was a political assassination.
At the service, there were community representatives from Australia, Canada and New Zealand. French politicians were reportedly present.
The mass attendance and the state like ceremony that was performed reflects the commitment and resolve of the Tamils. Amidst their show of communal grief, they have once again sent a powerful message to the international community that they will not be silenced in their work to achieve a war crimes investigation and justice for Tamils in Sri Lanka.
A few weeks ago the UN made international headlines when a leaked internal UN report prepared by Charles Petrie concluded that various UN agencies had failed to meet their responsibilities in the last months of the civil war in Sri Lanka.
“Events in Sri Lanka mark a grave failure of the UN,” the report concludes.
Writing for Canada’s The Globe and Mail on November 19, Frances Harrison, a former BBC correspondent in Sri Lanka and author of Still Counting the Dead: Survivors of Sri Lanka’s Hidden War states: “The latest UN report documents how UN staff members were in possession of reliable information that showed that the Sri Lankan government was responsible for the majority of deaths.
“And that two-thirds of the killings were inside safe zones unilaterally declared by the Sri Lankan government purportedly to protect civilians. This was information senior UN managers decided not to share with diplomats when they briefed them.”
The BBC has reported that the Petrie report points out that in Colombo “many senior UN staff did not perceive the prevention of killing of civilians as their responsibility – and agency and department heads at UNHQ were not instructing them otherwise” and there was “a continued reluctance” among UN personnel in Sri Lanka “to stand up for the rights of people they were mandated to assist”.
The report also talks about the UN’s reluctance to publish casualty figures.
During the war, the UN maintained a figure of about 8000 Tamil deaths. After the war, a former UN spokesperson in Sri Lanka Gordon Weiss, put this figure as high as 40,000.
The Petrie report says that “credible information” indicates “that over 70,000 people are unaccounted for”. Dr Sam Pari, spokesperson for the Australian Tamil Congress, says Tamil church leaders and civil society, using census statistics, have calculated the death toll to be 146,679.
Against this figure of 146,679 Tamil deaths, the UN estimation of 8000 is an insult. Even a possible 70,000 figure is hard to trust. So three years on, we still have no agreed figure of how many men, women, children and elderly were killed in the first five months of 2009.
What this internal review has revealed is nothing new. All throughout the final months of the war, Tamils all over the world pleaded with international leaders to take notice of the massacre taking place in Sri Lanka.
Thousands of Tamils continuously took to the streets in India, Australia, Canada, US, Malaysia, New Zealand, Switzerland, Germany and France. In the UK, an unprecedented 300,000 Tamils closed off Parliament Square crying out for a ceasefire.
Numerous young Tamils were on hunger strikes, and in India young men burnt themselves alive unable to bear the news of what was happening to their brothers and sisters.
Former UN spokesperson Gordon Weiss said in a blog post on November 15:
“Sri Lanka pulled off one of the nastiest episodes of mass killing since the Rwandan genocide – and got away with it.”
He went on to say that: “despite a clear advantage over the near-vanquished rebels, the army bombed packed hospitals, used starvation tactics, executed civilian captives, raped and killed female guerillas and corralled women and children into “safe zones” before shelling them. When that was done, it interrogated and then killed the Tamil Tiger political and military leadership, along with their families.”
I find it hard to believe that Western governments didn’t know what was going on. It has been confirmed that the UN certainly did know. While there were diplomatic efforts by some European leaders, their efforts were minimal.
I congratulate the aid workers, Tamil doctors, priests, Tamilnet journalists and diaspora Tamils who stayed in the conflict zone and did everything they could to make the world listen. Many died.
Today, I will remember them on Maaveerar Naal.
In responding to the leaked UN internal review, UN [secretary-general] Ban Ki-Moon said in a statement: “I am determined that the United Nations draws the appropriate lessons and does its utmost to earn the confidence of the world’s people, especially those caught in conflict who look to the organisation for help.”
I welcome Mr Moon’s statement. It is important to hear that the UN is “determined” to draw the “appropriate lessons”. Mr Moon has said he will organise a senior-level team to give him careful consideration to the recommendations and advise on a way forward.
It is a step in the right direction but we have to acknowledge it is a very small step and for the Tamil community it is too late. My concern with Mr Moon’s statement is what he omitted. Will anyone in the UN be held responsible?
In his blog, Gordon Weiss speaks about an incident during the war — when Australian UN humanitarian worker James Elder warned that children were being killed and a Sri Lankan government official accused him of supporting terrorists.
The government expelled Elder. That government official, Palitha Kohona, is now Sri Lanka’s representative at the UN. His deputy is a former general accused of mass killing during the war. Is Palitha Kohona going to be held accountable?
And what about Vijay Nambiar, who was Mr. Moon’s then chef de cabinet? Writing for The Huffington Post on November 16, Frances Harrison says Mr Nambiar implored the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay, to dilute her statement when she wanted to speak about potential war crimes by the Sri Lankan government. Will Mr Moon do anything about him?
And what about a war crimes investigation? Will Mr Moon make attempts to appoint an international war crimes investigation to set the record straight? And will member states give him the backing that he needs?
The Australian government has maintained a complicit silence regarding the Rajapakse regime and the allegations of war crimes against it, and it continues to give a former Navy official during the war — Thisara Samarasinghe — diplomatic immunity in Canberra.
I note here a sentence from page 28 of the Report of the Secretary-General’s Panel of Experts on Accountability in Sri Lanka.
“From as early as 6 February 2009, the SLA [Sri Lankan Army] continuously shelled within the area that became the second NFZ [No Fire Zone], from all directions, including land, air and sea.”
The failure of the Australian government and other western governments to take decisive actions, such as adding their support to Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s call to boycott CHOGM if held in Sri Lanka in 2013, adds to the pain and anguish that so many Tamils and their supporters feel, particularly on a day as important as today.
I congratulate all those who are working to ensure that there will be a war crimes investigation.
As November 27 dawns around the world I acknowledge the grief and courage of Tamils who gather together to remember and reflect on the enormity of the lives lost.
I repeat the call that crimes against humanity and war crimes committed in Sri Lanka must be investigated.
*Greens Senator Lee Rhiannon spoke in Australian parliament on November 27 to mark the the Tamil day, “Maaveerar Naal”

Homer, translated by Stephen Mitchell
The power and the beauty resound again across 2,700 years as if the life blood of heroes Achilles and Patroclus, Hector and Priam flowed in every word. Amid the horror and ecstasy of war, they are carried along by a poetry that lifts even the most devastating human events into the realm of the beautiful.

CASCADE LOCKS - An emotional moment of transition took place Monday in Cascade Locks.
"We were here for a very short period of time. One should always take that into account," George Fischer said during closing remarks in what is likely his last meeting as mayor.
By turns a shouting match and poignant summing up, Monday's City Council meeting included loud arguments between council members and citizens, typical of council meetings in the past six months.
Much of the focus of the night's discussion concerned or involved "the three," as councilors Tom Cramblett, Eva Zerfing and Lance Masters have come to be known.
Fischer and council members Don Haight, Tiffany Pruit and Kevin Benson were voted out of office Sept. 20 in a close recall election among Cascade Locks voters, meaning "the three" will be the total seated council at the next scheduled meeting, Oct. 10.
That is also the date when the county Elections Department is scheduled to certify the Sept. 20 ballot.
The recall effort was led by the organization Five Alarm Recall; the vote was at or about 53 in favor to 47 percent opposed in all four cases forwarded by the group. (A separate recall effort against Masters failed, 60 percent against to 40 percent for removing Masters.)
An effort led by Fischer Monday to fill a new vacancy on the council, created by Haight's resignation on Friday, ended with no action.
Masters protested Fischer's efforts to make an appointment to fill Haight's seat, telling Fischer, "You ought to be ashamed of yourselves for suggesting this.
"This is not legal and it won't hold up," Masters said.
Moments after a tense face-to-face with Masters in which Cramblett told Masters, "You're the one who should be ashamed for the way you have conducted yourself," Cramblett changed his mind about the appointment and joined Masters and Zerfing in voting against filling Haight's seat.
Monday's drama ensued when Fischer announced that Haight had submitted his letter of resignation Friday. Early in the meeting, Fischer added to the agenda the business of filling Haight's vacant seat, and Benson moved to appoint longtime Cascade Locks resident Bobby Walker to the seat.
What followed were protests by Masters, Zerfing and members of the community on two points: first, that the Sept. 20 vote meant that the citizens did not want recalled members of the current council to be making major decisions; and, second, that there had been no public notice of the vacancy and the opportunity to apply, giving Walker apparent special treatment.
"It's not reasonable and it's not necessary," Masters said.
A shouting match developed that was quelled by Fischer's gavel accompanied by a loud shout of "That's enough!" voiced by Chief Deputy Jerry Brown of Hood River County Sheriff's Department, who was there in uniform.
When things cooled, Walker stated that the letter he wrote to the council was specifically addressed to Zerfing, Masters and Cramblett, and not to the council as a whole. He later read aloud the letter, in which he offered to serve the city, without mentioning serving on council.
Walker said he declined to be appointed at this time, but urged the city to schedule a town meeting to hear from all interested applicants.
The motion to make the appointment had passed 4-2, with Masters and Zerfing opposing. Cramblett later voted against making an appointment, so the matter died.
Submitting a letter of application Monday was Rick Randall. Jeff Helfrich, who ran for council in 2010, and Tina Tarani, a member of Five Alarm, said they had not known Haight had resigned and would also like to be considered.
Benson repeatedly stated that "there won't be any town meeting," and that the appointment "is up to the council."
Benson had earlier stated, "I think it's been decided by Mr. Helfrich and the Five Alarm group. These folks have already teamed up on this."
Zerfing told Benson, "I have no intention of deciding that way," and then asked City Attorney Alex Sosnkowski, "Can we determine our own process?"
Sosnkowski said the council has leeway to do so; she and interim city administrator Paul Koch will present a list of options to the remaining council members, either at the Oct. 10 meeting or at a special meeting to be announced. According to Sosnkowski, there is nothing in the statute or charter prohibiting the council from interviewing the applicants in a public meeting.
Fischer defended his attempt to fill Haight's vacancy, saying "I have always been a mayor who believed in looking into things and doing what is the reasonable thing and what is the legal thing. I believe we are correct in the law in making sure we fill a vacancy that did happen.
"As mayor, I should try to fill vacancies when they occur," he said. "I believe it is my role, taking care of business and bringing things along as long as I am mayor."
It was the apparent swansong for Fischer, Pruit and Benson, who each had the chance for a final say at the end of the meeting, along with "the three."
Zerfing thanked the departing officials "because you're all here because you wanted to make a difference. I like you all and I respect you all."
Cramblett said, "I am saddened (council) is changing and I do appreciate all you do for the community and will continue to do."
Cramblett had earlier stated, "We're stuck with the election, but I accept it."
Benson declined to comment, but Fischer and Pruit took their turns.
Fischer said "I ran for mayor to help the city of Cascade Locks and that has always been my goal.
"It has been a pleasure to serve and a burden to serve," Fischer said, adding that "a lesson I learned the hard way was 'don't believe what you read in the newspaper.'"
Pruit, who had her own comments on the Hood River News, started off by asserting a long list of actions taken by the recall supporters, including shouting and name calling, filing fake police reports, and even "putting bags of dog poop on porches.
"This council stood above and beyond and behaved in the most professional way," Pruit said.
She then criticized the Hood River News as "not a real newspaper" and stated Editor Kirby Neumann-Rea lacks professional ethics, had taken sides, did not report facts from both sides, and had refused to publish three press releases from the city along with letters to the editor.

Those petitions making the rounds throughout North America that want a litany of books banned from classrooms and school libraries may be driven by a similar litany of homophobic or transphobic or self-righteous, religious orthodoxies, but there really are some books that should not be in our schools and someone has not done due diligence in screening them.
My wife recently brought to my attention one of those petitions that included an excerpt from an “offending” book.
Since I am fully supportive of books depicting two moms or two dads or focused on same-sex relationships and have no real objection to coarse language, I merely opined that she should ignore it. But she urged me to read the cited passage.
In expressive detail, it described an incestuous sexual encounter between a father and a nine-year-old child with the skilled craft of an adult novelist. When I later read through the actual book, I saw that with the same skilful adult writing, it described in detail more incest encounters, teenage sexual encounters (some involving bondage), and other behaviours stemming from childhood trauma.
Most of the titles listed on the petition only included offensive language, drug use, or scenarios about LGBTQ issues — none of which, as a high school counsellor, I found especially alarming or detrimental to the psychological development of today’s teens. However, there were others that depicted in graphic detail incidents of teen anal and oral sexual acts, as well as drawn scenes of graphic oral sex between teenagers.
My objection is to books offered through school libraries or classrooms using explicit detailed sexual scenarios of teens written from the imaginations of adult writers — with adult publishing power — intruding into teenage minds.
This is a theft of the kids’ own private sexuality and a betrayal of their childhood right to develop and explore their own individual sexuality.
Schools are psychological stamps of approval in the minds of children. So stories and instruction they offer about sexuality must be holistic and appropriate for the developmental stages of our kids.
Emotions, personal space, social repercussions, self-esteem and self-image, power imbalances, manipulation, consent, respect, empathy, fear, nervousness, privacy, complexity in relationships, the transitoriness and flux of every child’s personality, rejection, abandonment, loss, and mindfulness — these are all holistic components of how we must present sexuality in schools. Otherwise, we usher our kids into a superficial, body-only, encounter-based, stimulation or impulsivity more connected to fitting in rather than self-loving and intimacy.
We don’t need a scattergun approach of petitions to foster the well-being of our kids, we need our teachers and school librarians to actually read the books to ensure that the content does not impose adult sexual needs or perspectives that will be internalized by our kids.


"In 2011, we realized we needed to upgrade our equipment. And we all needed to cut costs."
—Ben Guthrie, EM/E9-1-1 coordinator for Gulf County Emergency Management.
Franklin, Gulf, and Calhoun counties in Northwest Florida have a lot in common, with each operating its own PSAP for its sheriff's office. But with these PSAPs operating on aging systems, and i3 technologies pushing industry standards, these small, rural-based counties had to respond to the changing tide.

Illegal immigration is more than just a talking point for politicians looking to win or stay in office. The left is determined to make us an open border country, allowing everyone in, regardless of criminal background. That’s why it’s important to demonstrate the serious crimes committed by so many illegal immigrants in this weekly report. This is not an analysis, but rather a highlight of the more serious offenses committed by these aliens. While there may have been many more – hundreds even – arrests of illegal aliens for simple infractions, here we concentrate only on the most dangerous.
Week of March 8-14
Mother’s Abuse of 6-Year-Old Led to His Death
Salt Lake County, UT
A six-year-old boy who had reportedly suffered from abuse was taken to the hospital after being found unresponsive in his home. He died two days later, and law enforcement began investigating the needless death as a homicide due to the multitude of injuries, which suggested abuse.
Initially, authorities suspected the mother, 31-year-old Reyna Elizabeth Flores-Rosales, of child abuse – but then arrested her on suspicion of homicide. Court documents reveal the child died as a result of a blow to the right side of his head. The injury caused the child’s brain to bleed and swell, and the swelling “displaced his brain and killed him.”
Medics noted other injuries on the boy’s body, including open sores, bruises, scars, and even burns on the buttocks. Flores-Rosales is an illegal immigrant from Honduras. She had previously been reported to the Department of Family and Child Services for suspected child abuse. In addition to the victim in this case, she has a 10-month-old baby.
Currently, Flores-Rosales is in jail without bond and has been placed on an ICE detainer. She is charged with aggravated murder and aggravated sexual abuse of a child (first-degree felonies), and two second-degree felony charges of child abuse.
Man Sexually Abused Woman at a Senior Home
St. Cloud, MN
A 23-year-old DACA man has allegedly admitted to sexually touching a 68-year-old female patient in a senior home facility. Jesus Manzanilla Alvarado is in the custody of ICE because he is a citizen of Mexico and in the U.S. illegally, officials said.
According to reports, Alvarado had been spending a lot of time with the victim, who suffers from anxiety and depression. However, recently the visits became more frequent and time spent with the woman increased. The inappropriate visits were brought to the attention of local police when staff reported the behavior, and Alvarado allegedly admitted to law enforcement that he had been sexually touching the woman. The woman collaborated his admission, saying he had been entering her room and touching her.
A spokesperson for St. Benedict’s Senior Community claimed “stringent hiring protocols that require multiple forms of legal documentation and review from multiple agencies” are used in the hiring process. All potential employees are also required to go through background checks that are reviewed by the Minnesota Department of Human Services.
Shawn Neudauer, ICE Spokesman, said that Alvarado will be deported if he is convicted and sentenced on criminal sexual conduct charges.

Alison Hammond called Ruth Langsford a beauty on social media this morning instead.
The 45-year-old presenter praised Ruth’s appearance on her social media page.
Ruth, 60, shared a picture of herself in a blue jumper.
Big Brother once wrote in a post to contestant Ruth: “What a beauty [heart emoji]”.
Ruth has not yet liked or responded to Alison’s comments on the post.
The moment on social media came after the Daily Mirror revealed that Alison and Dermot O’Leary will replace Ruth and her husband Eamon Holmes for Friday morning shows.
Ruth and Emon have been presenters on their favorite ITV morning show for 14 years.
Instead, the pair will be in front of the show only when Philip Showfield and Holy Willoughby are on summer vacation.
Bose impresses with the chemistry of Alison and Dermot when watching shows before.
Before the interviews and segments as a rowing reporter, Alison was a fan favorite.
“They have real warmth,” said one insider. “It’s time for a change, and they are perfect.
“Emon is very angry and everyone seems to like him and Ruth. They like the team well, but sometimes they have to make tough decisions.”
Bosses were recently trusted by bosses to guest-edit a one-day show.
“It’s only a pleasure!” At the time, she said: “There is no such thing as a lockdown or a corona virus.
“There will be a lot of recipes and food … and some fashion and fun. It’s great, and I’m excited to be the boss.”
Despite the decision this morning, Ruth continues to be the presenter of Loose Woman and continues to be popular among the audience there.
The changes made by show boss Martin Friesell are expected to be released in the new year.
This morning continues on weekdays on ITV from 10am.

Air Force Sec. Deborah Lee James today delivered a to-the-point message to lawmakers who are considering cutting Basic Allowance for Housing payments for troops who are married to other service members: Hands off.
James said in a post on her Facebook page Tuesday morning:
I echo the White House and [Defense Department] stance that individuals earn military entitlements based on their service as individuals. Restricting BAH will have a negative impact on the recruitment and retention of high quality service members, and thus we oppose the [fiscal 2016 defense authorization bill] Section 604 language. I am committed to ensuring we maintain the greatest Air Force on the planet, and I will continue to advocate for Airmen on this issue.
As my colleague Andrew Tilghman wrote, the Senate is proposing to limit dual-military couples to one BAH payment, which would be the rate received by the higher-ranking or senior-most service member. It would also hit unmarried troops who share a home or apartment with other service members. Those who are in the E-4 or higher pay grades who have military roommates would have a 25 percent cut in their BAH rate.
Earlier in June, the White House strongly opposed the BAH cut, saying it would “impose a marriage penalty” and “have a disproportionate negative impact on women service members.”
James’ comment drew dozens of responses. Many said they were airmen married to other troops and praised her for backing their BAH. But some said two BAH payments for one couple was excessive.
“The military already gives us a paycheck on the 1st and the 15th,” said one commenter. “They give us free education, medical, 3 meals a day, and a roof over our head. I do not think we should be giving dual military couples two BAH for them to pocket. It is intended to put a roof over our heads not an extra paycheck. This is exactly where we should be making our cuts.”
That comment drew several responses from those who disagreed.
“Dual military couples do need it,” another said. “This is not where cuts need to come from. And for one not all dual military couples are located in the same place. Please wake up. And this is coming from experience.

Operations at a shaft at Aquarius Platinum‘s Marikana mine in South Africa remain suspended a week after the death of five miners.
Aquarius Platinum commercial director Hulme Scholes said he is unsure when operations will resume, reports Reuters.
South Africa, home to the world’s deepest mines, has one of the highest rates of work-related mining deaths in the industrialised world.
The South African Government has ordered mine closures to curb mining accidents, which has further reduced output after the global economic downturn.
In a meeting to discuss and reduce accidents, mining companies and the government agreed to invest in worker training to avoid more disasters and reconvene on a quarterly basis to review progress.
Mining Minister Susan Shabangu said mining accidents in 2010 have dropped by 25% compared to the same period last year.
