Warner claims to be 'critical friend' of World Cup bid
Monday 12 October 2009
The Fifa vice-president Jack Warner has defended himself against personal attacks following his criticism of England's World Cup bid.
He came under fierce attack in some quarters after describing England's World Cup bid as "lightweight", with suggestions that his trip to London was at the Football Association's expense. Walker said last week he was commenting on England's bid as a "critical friend" and in an email to FA chairman Lord Triesman said of the attacks on him: "They do not know what they do".
"Do kindly let your media know that I paid my own airfare and that of my colleagues and that I was prevailed upon by your staff not to pay my hotel expenses," he added. "Time will tell whether I have been right or wrong in the unsolicited advice I have given."
Warner is an influential member of the 25-man Fifa executive committee who will vote on the 2018 and 2022 World Cup hosts in December next year. The leaders of England's World Cup bid have said they will listen to Warner's advice but have a long-term game-plan that they will stick to.
Warner had said that England have sent "lightweight" representatives to meet Fifa executives who hold key votes like himself. Warner has three votes and could influence a further two. He arrived at last week's Stamford Bridge for the Leaders Of Football conference and saw guests being given a free bags promoting Australia's bid for either 2018 or 2022.
"I came here and was shocked that I got a bag for Australia at the entrance," Warner said. "I wouldn't have allowed it. Why isn't there a bag for England? People are looking at these things and asking themselves questions. My colleagues are saying very quietly that the guys who are coming to them are lightweight. This is the type of thing that loses you a bid.
"You have to look at what others are doing and also be creative yourself - these things are not happening."
Danny Jordaan, who led South Africa's successful bid for next year's tournament, added: "There is a large global awareness of the English Premier League but that connection between a domestic product and a world event must be made."

Question about NetGear Computers & Internet
Want to connect Netgear N600 WiFi Range Extender Model WN2500RP to Netgear Wireless VPN Router FWAG114. The WN2500RP instructions tell me to push the WPS button on the FWAG114. That button is not identified on the wireless router. Where is it located?
Posted by Anonymous on
Thanks for posting to Fixya!
According to the manual I found at the following link;
WPS is not supported on this router. However, my suggestion would be to reset the WN2500 to default with the reset and start fresh, using the manual setup. You can find the help you need here;

Yes you can. The button is in the software. goto http://192.168.1.254 or whatever the URL for the modem. Login. Goto Home-->Wireless--> Push WPS Button Remotely and push the button. I don't know if you need to have the repeater nearby when you do this. I had mine sitting right next to my router.

SOURCE: I have a 2-wire 2701HG-B
Doesn't look like your router/modem supports WPS, here is the manual. http://www.2wire.com/pages/pdfs/2701HG_user_guide.pdf
I would check your Range extender model because some allow for a wired configuration
Here is a How To, to configure the extender via cable and utility http://support.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/41

Hi, yes you will be able to use the Netgear range extender with the Apple Time Capsule, provided you configure the Time Capsule's wireless settings based from the wireless security you have setup on the Netgear router or extender. No need for WPS button. Just treat the time capsule just like another wireless laptop.

Hope this helps. Glad to be of service.

SETTING A ROUTER AS A REPEATER 1. Connect your computer to the repeater router's RJ45 port with a LAN cable. 2. Open a browser, then enter the router's URL configuration's IP address, This is usually something similar to 192.168.0.1 3. Enter the configuration user name and password. The router will display the various router settings. 4. Go to the page that changes the IP address of the router. Changed the IP address so that it is not the same as the main router on the network, or any other network devices. If the main router on the network is set to 192.168.1.1 then the repeater router should use a higher number (ie. 10), such as 192.168.1.10 or higher, depending on how many devices are on your network. 5. Disable the repeater router's DHCP server. This setting should be on the same page as the IP address, (this may be different depending on the make of the router). When the main router is operating normally, this server assigns an IP address to every device that is connected to your network. Because this router is used as a repeater, the main router on your network will still issue the IP addresses. 6. Also turn off the DNS server, if it is activated. This function will be taken over by the main router. 7. Disable any firewall settings on the repeater router. This is usually in the "Security" section, depending on the make and model of your router. 8. Remove all in the "Port Forwarding" section. Some routers may refer to this as "Applications and Gaming," and it allows less-restricted access to the internet. 9. Set the operating mode switch to "Gateway" or "Switch" if applicable. Also, if the repeater router is a wireless router then disable the wireless access or set it to access point only. 10. Save the settings for each page, and reboot the router. When the router boots up, the changes will allow it to act as a simple repeater. 11. Now, place the repeater router in a new location and connect both routers with a Ethernet cable in each of the router's RJ45 LAN ports, and power it up both routers.

Matt Reeves has gone to excellent lengths explaining why he had no curiosity in connecting The Batman to the established DCEU mythology; however, that doesn’t imply his rebooted universe begins and ends with Gotham City.
There’s a whole world on the market past the borders of Bruce Wayne’s hometown, and due to the upcoming blockbuster’s official tie-in novelization, we all know that no less than one acquainted face resides in Superman’s stomping floor of Metropolis.
As revealed by The Direct, Before the Batman: An Original Movie Novel confirms a specific megalomaniacal titan of trade and his firm are a part of continuity, with a brand new character within the e-book named Dex dropping the tantalizing passage you’ll be able to learn beneath.
That doesn’t imply we can anticipate any overt nods in the direction of both Metropolis, Lex Luthor, or Superman being made in The Batman. Still, it has nudged the door open ever so barely for sequels to start increasing the main target of the model new franchise outdoors of the purview instantly inhabited by Robert Pattinson’s Dark Knight.
Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck’s immediate and long-term futures as Batman and Superman stay up for debate and closely scrutinized, too, which solely serves to make the most recent growth surrounding the Caped Crusader that rather more satisfying.

Lives of Hungry and Poor People in the Balance at UN Doha Meetings
As the annual conference of the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change regroups this week in Doha, Qatar, Americans on the other side of the world continue to pick up the pieces left behind more than a month ago by Hurricane Sandy. Many Americans are still waiting for electricity to return to their homes.
It may be premature to blame events like Sandy entirely on rising greenhouse gas levels, but experts are clear that the timing is no coincidence. The United States is only the latest “ground zero” in an unprecedented string of natural disasters that are hitting communities around the world with increased frequency. And our country is among the most resilient, thanks to a well-developed disaster response system. Many are not so fortunate, and cost is high in both lives and livelihoods.
The causal relationship is now nearly undeniable:
Emissions induced by industrialization.→ Rising global temps.→ Millions of threatened lives.
The World Bank is already pleading with national leaders to take swift action to cap rising temperatures: “Without further commitments and action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the world is likely to warm by more than 3°C above the preindustrial climate.” If that number reaches 4°C, we would see “unprecedented heat waves, severe drought, and major floods in many regions, with serious impacts on human systems, ecosystems, and associated services.”
Poor and hungry people stand to lose the most, and leaders at Doha cannot forget that.
The negotiations at Doha this week will not debate the reality of the crisis—but rather who will have to make the necessary emissioncuts. Industrialized countries are responsible for the majority of carbon emissions (click here to view full map). And the tricky fact remains that very few high-income countries were able to develop their economies and raise standards of living without relying heavily on fossil fuels. But now that fossil fuels—still considered a basic ingredient of economic development—have been proven the main cause of harmful climate changes, how are optimistic newcomers like China, India, and Brazil—now in the midst of the development process—to respond? Should they be expected to stall their growth because industrialized countries led them down an unsustainable path to development?
As this adorable video-clip illustrates—a sustainable and pro-growth solution will be quite the job for our Doha delegates from both sides. Domestic interests will make it difficult for industrialized countries to take responsibility—but the health of our global ecosystem and human populations demands it. Negotiations must prioritize our highest obligation—the millions of lives of the most vulnerable. And rich countries have a clear responsibility to take the lead.

The spokesperson of Foreign Affairs of Ethiopia, H.E. Ambassador Dina Mufti, gave the Ministry’s biweekly press briefing today (15 April 2021) to the media. In his presentation, the Ambassador focused on political diplomacy (with a focus on situations regarding humanitarian support and alleged atrocities on rights violations in Tigray and the GERD negotiations), the Ethiopia-Sudan border dispute, economic diplomacy, capacity building and citizen-centered diplomatic activities. Below is Summary of the Press Briefing
I. Political Diplomacy
H.E. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Demeke Mekonnen and H.E. Minister of Water, Irrigation and Energy, Dr. Seleshi Bekele briefed African Ambassadors in Addis Ababa on the #GERD talks in Kinshasa and the Ethiopia Sudan border Issue. The Ministers:
- Highlighted issues at the Kinshasa meeting and Ethiopia`s perspectives on the matter.
- Said the AU led trilateral negotiation is the only viable way to reach a win-win outcome.
- Cooperation and the spirit of African brotherhood are the best option for the management and utilization of the waters of the Nile.
- said attempts of Egypt and the Sudan who claim the GERD as a threat to Arab water security (despite being in Africa like every other riparian country and unnecessarily politicizing the matter) is disappointing
- Said In line with the Communiqué issued at the conclusion of the meeting of the African Union Bureau of the Assembly in July 2020, the most practical and workable way for a successful negotiation is first to agree on the first filling and related operations and then to proceed to a comprehensive agreement on the utilization of the waters of the Nile.
- underlined that Ethiopia, in good faith has invited Sudan and Egypt to assign operators for data exchange
- Regarding the border dispute, they said Ethiopia is committed to resolve the matter through a peaceful means based on the bilateral agreements and existing boundary mechanisms.
- The Ambassadors on their part expressed their profound thanks for the briefing and emphasized the importance of reaching a win-win outcome on the GERD through the AU led negotiation based on the principle of “African solutions to Africa`s problems.” They further appreciated Ethiopia`s determination to resolve the Ethiopia-Sudan boundary issue peacefully.
H.E. Demeke Mekonnen, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs of Ethiopia held talks on Friday (April 09) with Mr. Pekka Haavisto, Special Envoy of the European Union and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Finland. Their meeting had covered the situation in Tigray, GERD, and Ethiopia-Sudan border dispute. Regarding the situation in Tigray the following points were raised:
- the government is committed to bring perpetrators to justice based on the findings of the joint investigation of the Ethiopian Human Rights Commission and the UN
- the international community should support the government that still is covering 70 percent of the delivery reaching 4.5 million people so far.
- a roadmap has been charted out by the government to resettle internally displaced people before the upcoming rainy season.
- Life in the region has returned to normalcy and the government is initiating plans to have a wide-range consultation with the community to make the peace process sustainable while outlaws would have no option but to face justice.
- Mr. Haavisto said during his visit to the region the humanitarian agencies and the media operating there have told him that access to the region has been very much improved.
Regrading the Grand Renaissance Dam:
- Mr. Demeke reiterated Ethiopia’s commitment to the AU-led process and appreciation to the new Chairperson’s initiatives.
- The special envoy expressed his view that expediting information and data exchange before the commencement of the filling of the dam would be advisable.
Speaking about the Ethiopia-Sudan border conflict Mr. Demeke said it is regrettable that the international community did not openly criticize Sudan for occupying Ethiopia’s territories through the use of force.
H.E. Demeke Mekonnen, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of Ethiopia received at his office on Friday (April 9) the newly elected Deputy Chairperson of the African Union Commission, Dr. Monique Nsanzabaganwa. They discussed current situations in Tigray, Ethiopia’s commitment to the AU-led process over the GERD negotiations and the need to cooperate over COVID 19 vaccination issues.
Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister H.E. Demeke Mekonnen had received yesterday WHO Regional Director for Africa Dr. Matshidiso Rebecca Moeti. Mr. Demeke said Ethiopia is keen to work with WHO to add up on the achievements registered in expanding Primary Health Care in the previous decades and cooperate on initiatives supporting affordable vaccine to COVID-19.
H.E. Demeke Mekonnen, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs of Ethiopia has held a phone conversation on Thursday (April 08) with Denmark’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, H.E. Jeppe Kofod. They talked about GERD, Ethiopia’s commitment in bringing alleged human rights violation in Tigray based on the results of the joint Ethiopia-UN investigation, the Ethiopia-Sudan border issue and the upcoming election. On the election, Mr. Demeke said preparations are well underway to make it fair and free augmented by the efforts of the newly restructured and independent institution- the National Electoral Board of Ethiopia- (NEBE).
H.E. Demeke Mekonnen, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs of Ethiopia had a telephone conversation with National Security Advisor to President Biden, Jake Sullivan. Mr. Demeke said the situation in Tigray is improving, though demanding serious intervention and discussed issues over the #GERD where he underlined that the AU-Led negotiation is instrumental to solve outstanding issues. Mr. Demeke also talked about the border issue with Sudan and said it would be solved peacefully.”
State Minister H.E. Ambassador Birtukan Ayano had attended the 27th anniversary commemoration of the Rwandan genocide against the Tutsis. She said the genocide in Rwanda was the result of divisive policies and hate speech and recalled that Ethiopia has played a leading role in sending peacekeepers, protecting the vulnerable and rehabilitating the country.
New ambassadors of Ethiopia who were appointed to Italy and Saudi Arabia have submitted their copies of credentials to officials of the stated countries, while Ethiopia has received copies of the credentials of new ambassadors of Israel, Bangladesh and Canada to Ethiopia.
II. Ethiopia-Sudan Border Dispute
Although Sudan is the current Chair of IGAD, it is regrettable to see it as the main actor in jeopardizing the peace & security of the Horn of Africa by invading Ethiopian territories, plundering and displacing civilians and beating war drums to occupy even more lands.
Ethiopia urges the international community to put pressure on Sudan to come to its senses and evacuate its troops from Ethiopian territories that it has forcefully occupied since 6 Nov. 2020 while the Ethiopian army was preoccupied with the law & order operation in Tigray.
Ethiopia is ready to solve its border dispute with Sudan using existing conflict resolution mechanisms once the status quo is maintained as per the 1972 Exchange of Notes b/n the two that prohibits displacement & force to solve border issues till amicable solution is found.
III. Economic Diplomacy
State Minister H.E. Tsion Teklu, has received a delegation of Romanian investors led by the Honorary Consul of Ethiopia in Romania. The State Minister highlighted investment opportunities and called on them to invest, especially in the agricultural sector.

The Consulate General Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia in Los Angeles in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and other stakeholders hosted a virtual Trade and Tourism Promotion Forum on Thursday to strengthen tourism and business ties between Ethiopia and the United States of America. This virtual promotion made a successful deliberation on Trade and Tourism opportunities available in Ethiopia.

More than 100 private companies of Abu Dhabi and higher government officials from Ethiopia took part in the event.
IIII. Citizen centered Diplomacy
We have repatriated 2344 Ethiopians from Saudi Arabia (904 from Jeddah, 1348 from Riyadh) and 92 from Yemen.
Ethiopians and people of Ethiopian descent in Europe, the Americas and the Middle East have continued to support the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — A federal judge has ordered Rowan County commissioners to immediately stop opening its public meetings with prayers specific to one religion.
The Salisbury Post reported that Judge James A. Beatty Jr. submitted his decision Tuesday on behalf of three complainants.
The Post reported that the three Rowan County complainants said their rights were violated by prayers, most of which were in Jesus’ name.
The ACLU and ACLU of North Carolina Legal Foundation filed a lawsuit in March on behalf of Nancy Lund, Liesa Montag-Siegel and Robert Voelker.
Beatty also denied Rowan County’s motions to dismiss the case and to stay the proceedings while similar cases are heard in higher courts.
Chris Brook, legal director for the ACLU of North Carolina Legal Foundation, said he is pleased with the court’s decision.
“Members of the community should be treated and welcomed equally by their government regardless of their personal religious beliefs,” Brook said.
Commissioners were not available for comment on Tuesday night.

Manchester City should have Riyad Mahrez back at their disposal for Saturday’s FA Cup fourth-round clash with Fulham at the Etihad.
The former Leicester City man was granted a week off following Algeria’s exit from the Africa Cup of Nations, but Pep Guardiola will expect to welcome him back to the fold here.
Cole Palmer and Oleksandr Zinchenko remain doubtful with knocks, though, while Ederson and Gabriel Jesus are unlikely to be risked from the start following their late returns from Brazil duty.
Zack Steffen has been pictured in training with the Citizens after missing the USA’s most recent fixtures due to a back injury, so he should be fine to feature in between the sticks this weekend.
Joao Cancelo and Kyle Walker can expect to retain their places out wide, but Nathan Ake and John Stones will hope to demote Ruben Dias and Aymeric Laporte to the bench.
A strong midfield could also see Ilkay Gundogan and Bernardo Silva both feature alongside Fernandinho, with Rodri and Kevin De Bruyne perhaps being kept in reserve.
Mahrez will likely take his spot on the right flank following his AFCON return, while Jack Grealish and Phil Foden could complete the lineup as Jesus is spared.
Man City possible starting lineup: Steffen; Walker, Stones, Ake, Cancelo; Gundogan, Fernandinho, Silva; Mahrez, Foden, Grealish

The specificity of the K-channels which are present in the ciliated membrane of ampullar receptors has been investigated by replacing K+ in the fluids bathing the canal with Rb+ and Cs+. Results show that, unlike Cs+, Rb+ is able to substitute K+ in maintaining the receptor function. These findings favour the hypothesis that the transduction channels which allow the receptor current to flow across sensory cell bodies are specific K-channels. The effects of Rb+ and Cs+ on primary sensory neuron endings were also studied.

- The difficulties of breeding for Fusarium head blight (caused by Schwabe [teleomorph: ]) resistance, a quantitatively inherited fungal disease, caused us to initiate a marker-assisted selection (MAS) approach to accelerate our gains from selection. Although MAS for simply inherited traits has become commonplace in many plant breeding programs, there are few examples of its application with quantitatively inherited traits. Several barriers to MAS for a quantitative trait locus (QTL) must be addressed before it can be integrated into a breeding program, including (i) its efficiency or gain compared to phenotypic selection; (ii) the usefulness of markers in breeding-relevant populations; and (iii) the cost, throughput, and expertise required. We identified a major QTL, , for Fusarium head blight resistance in wheat (L.) and validated its effect in an additional mapping population and near-isogenic lines developed from segregating lines in our breeding program. The effect of this QTL was large and consistent enough to justify complementing our extensive phenotypic screening efforts for this disease with MAS for this major QTL. is located in a highly polymorphic region, and we developed highly diagnostic markers while fine mapping this QTL. The establishment of the USDA-ARS Regional Small Grains Genotyping Centers has dramatically increased our capabilities to apply MAS by providing access to high-throughput DNA extraction and genotyping equipment. Because a limited number of individuals can be subjected to MAS, we use a process of retrospective breeding to identify those populations that are most likely to produce cultivar candidates. More efficient DNA extraction technologies and marker platforms will allow us to fully implement MAS in breeding programs.

Like most people, DJs and producers have specific songs tied to events throughout their lives. In Crate Expectations, we extract a playlist from their memories to tell their story. This week's subject: Richy Ahmed.
THUMP: What's the first song you ever loved?
Richey: Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean." It was the first time I had really got into an artist when I was really young. I loved everything he was doing, but that was my favourite track. It's still one of my favourite tracks of all time.
What are the first two songs you ever mixed together?
First two songs? I'm not sure… first two songs I mixed together? I don't remember that!
What is your worst guilty pleasure song?
"Alone" by Heart. I love a power ballad and this is one of my favourites, you always play it at afterparties when everyone's really drunk.
What song have you had on repeat in the last month?
I have been listening to the new Eddie Murphy song, a reggae one called "Oh Jah Jah." It's mint, you know! He sounds like Bob Marley or something. It's about politics and the world being fucked up and that. It might not be cool but I've actually had it on quite a bit. It sounds really crazy I know, but it's a cool summer jam and I really like the positive lyrics behind the track. You would not believe it was Eddie Murphy in a billion years.
Which track of your own do you love the most?
I can't say that I love anyone track the most, but I definitely still constantly play the "101 Jam" in my sets even now, so that to me has stood the test of time more than any of my other tracks.
What track of your own do you hate the most?
"Tell Me." It was one of the first tracks I'd ever made, in the early stages of production and it's really not my vibe anymore.
What track are you most excited to drop in a set?
That would be my remix of "The Warning" by Logic for Strictly Rhythm. It absolutely goes off every time I play it. I love that it's a remix I've done myself of one of my favourite old house tracks. I think I've done a good job, so it makes me proud.
What's your favourite track that you wish you could work into a set?
Gwen McCrae's "Keep the Fire Burning." Love the track. I always play it at afterparties and disco sets, but I think I'd struggle to fit it in on the DC-10 terrace!
What's the last song you want to hear before the lights go on?
The Doorly remix of Mario Cruz's "Little Thing." I always play it as the last track and it works every time. Beautiful track, excellent hook, really good job. Every time the piano chords kick in the crowds just lights on fire.

“We believe this is the first working system of its kind anywhere in the world,”
Given that it typically gets hottest outside when the sunlight is most direct, it would make sense to have air conditioners that were powered by the thermal energy from solar rays. Unfortunately, collecting enough of that energy in a cost-effective manner can be challenging. Now, however, a team of University of California, Merced students have created a solar thermal collection system that is said to be significantly simpler, cheaper and more efficient than anything that’s come before.
The students were led by Professor Roland Winston, and their system uses what are known as External Compound Parabolic Concentrators (XCPCs). Each device concentrates sunlight onto a specially-designed collector tube, which converts that sunlight’s energy into heat. The combined solar heat from an array of these XCPCs can be fed into a building’s heating system, used to generate electricity, or to run an absorption chiller-style air conditioner – these generate cold air in a process that utilizes heat, as opposed to electricity created from heat.
The UC Merced system is simpler than many other solar thermal collectors, in that it is stationary – other systems turn to track the Sun throughout the day, which requires complex mechanisms and a source of power, plus it limits the locations in which they can be installed.
Because the system has such a wide field of view of the sky, it is also able to operate even on hazy days, scavenging sufficient heat even from indirect sunlight.
In tests of the technology, the system was reportedly able to reach a solar thermal efficiency of 60 percent at temperatures up to 400F (204C). “The efficiency of 60 percent refers to 60 percent of the sun’s irradiance being converted into ‘thermal’ energy” UC Merced’s Ron Durbin explained to us. “This is quite different than a photovoltaic system that converts 15-20 percent of the sun’s irradiance into electricity.”

Risky Trips: Rainforest adventures and safari expeditions. Africa gets a lot of attention for malaria, and rightly so, since counties like Kenya, South Africa and Tanzania are home to a malaria-infected mosquito population. But popular vacation destinations like Costa Rica, Dominican Republic and Mexico (especially in the states of Nayarit, Oaxaca, and Sinaloa) carry a risk as well.
Vital Signs: Malaria is transmitted by mosquitos infected with parasites, which then enter your bloodstream and attack your red blood cells. So if you know you’re visiting a high-risk destination, see your doctor to get started on the appropriate antimalarial drug (each of four strains has it’s own medication) at least four to six weeks before your departure. If infected, the parasites will multiply rapidly, although it could take a full year before you notice symptoms, like fever and chills. Always just assume the mosquito did you in and see a doctor right away, just in case. Brushing it off is a no-no, unless you don’t care that these parasites can creep up into your brain...and cause stroke or kidney failure.

ARLINGTON, Texas - A 21-year-old man has been charged with manslaughter after police say he drove onto a sidewalk and fatally struck a pedestrian.
Hashem Mohammad Mahdi Tafesh was charged for a wreck on Feb. 3, in the 2000 block of S. Cooper St. in Arlington.
According to the arrest affidavit, Tafesh was driving a 2006 Honda Pilot northbound on S. Cooper St., when for an unknown reason, he lost control and drove onto the sidewalk.
Jordan Coleman was walking on the sidewalk, and was hit by Tafesh's vehicle.
Coleman was taken to Medical City of Arlington Hospital, where she died from her injuries the next day.
Tafesh remained at the scene following the crash. When an officer spoke to him, he said he "was struck by something and it threw him," but didn't say anything else about what happened before the crash, according to the affidavit.
Tafesh had an identification card from Jordan, along with a student ID from the University of Texas at Arlington.

Will a member of the Orange Walk Police Department be charged for his involvement in the abduction and murder case of Ramon Cervantes Senior?
That is a question that is yet to be answered even though reports suggest that the officer has been placed or is expected to be placed on disciplinary charges. We received the information this afternoon but when we tried confirming all we could verify is that police are presently trying to build a case against the police officer whose handcuffs were allegedly used to bound Cervantes’ hands and feet.
Seventy one year old Ramon Cervantes Senior was abducted from his farm located on the San Roman Road on July 1st.
Almost five days after his kidnapping, Cervantes’ body was discovered in a shallow grave on a farm just off the Honey Camp Road. While three persons have been charged for Cervantes’ murder police are yet to capture the man who is believed to have orchestrated the heinous murder, Manuel Castillo. We will follow this story on Monday’s newscast.

What does open source have to do with ecology? If you work on the Open Source Ecology project, open source is crucial. “We are using FLOSS [Free/Libre/Open Source Software] as much as possible,” says Open Source Ecology supporter Nikoly Georgiev.
“We are developing open source, economically significant machines in order to enable the creation of an open society, where everybody's needs are met, and where everybody has access to information, material productivity, and just governance systems – such that human creativity is unleashed, for all people,” Georgiev explains. Open Source Ecology is a network of contributors, including farmers and engineers who have been working on developing the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS). The construction set is an open technological platform that will be used to help fabricate 50 different industrial machines, such as a 50kW wind turbine, backhoe, bulldozer, and a cement mixer.
In late August, Marcin Jakubowski, Open Source Ecology founder and director, posted the GVCS Rollout Plan for 2011-2012 on the project wiki. In his post, Jakubowski explained that the project's 2010 budget was US $1,500 per month, and the current budget is $10,000 per month. He projects the project budget will be up to $100,000 per month within six months, with financing coming from True Fans (financial supporters) and production earnings.
The project's founder also points out that gaining support has been a challenge. “As founder, I must comment on the general support level – and the difficulty of convincing supporters,” he writes. “Most people see crappy, simplistic design. Most people do not see that we are pursuing an iterative development process – guaranteed to produce results superior to industry standards. Open source development has been shown to produce superior results simply after enough people join the development – after a well-organized development effort continues to survive.”
Georgiev says that currently the project team is focused on demonstrating the effectiveness of the equipment in construction and agriculture duties. “For construction, we will be using the open source tractor, CEB press, sawmill, and other supporting tools such as soil pulverizer, cement mixer, auger, backhoe, trencher, hay baler, hay rake, hay cutter, and others,” he says. “We will demonstrate infrastructure building and housing construction – including double CEB walls filled with straw bales for super-insulation,” he adds. Would you like to help out with this innovative, open source ecology project? Georgiev says that the project will soon have a Kickstarter campaign for the completion, extended field testing, and documentation of the Tractor, Soil Pulverizer, CEB Press, and Power Cube, which will help conclude the project's first main prototyping cycle of the base agriculture and construction infrastructures. He says that in October the project will start a Natural Building Workshop that will teach attendees how to create compressed earth brick, cut lumber, cement mixing, and more. Georgiev also recommends checking out the Get Involved Wiki page. The project currently needs fabricators, fabrication managers, construction poject managers, project managers, machine and CAD designers, power engineers, farmers, a cook, web programmers, and more.


There’s a blind Puma in a wire cage down the road. A wise old american mountain lion, on a medieval farm in Switzerland. Rescued from a zoo, I’d guess. Living on horsemeat and memories. At midnight on New Year’s eve I heard him growl for the coming year. Wistfully. Dreaming of the ancestral mountains of New Mexico or Colorado, whilst sniffing the midnight air fresh down from the Alps. Like this old puma, we’re all misplaced expatriots, thankful for another year, living on memories and whiffing the air of eternity. I’m thankful for love and limb; also that “One to the Heart, One to the Head” and “Blood and Candle Smoke” made dozens of year-end “best of” lists for 2009. Also grateful to have seen Leonard Cohen in Phoenix last summer – ripping the heart out of four hours of original music. Delivering the Gospel in the Desert. Just when the glow was fading from that memory, last week, my friend Alec delivered a link to a video of Jesse Winchester singing a song on Elvis Costello’s TV show. It’s a heartfelt saga of teenage love, rendered by a true master; with sincerity and quiet passion. We tend to forget about Jesse, but there he was. Telling me again why in hell we’re in this game. Cutting to the heart of the matter. Right near the end of the song the camera slides over to Neko Case; sitting next to Jesse on stage –and a tear rolls down her cheek. Do I have have to say more? That’s it. That’s why we’re here. In this age when we’re drowning in the worthless bilge water of tired celebrity – like who cares if Willie Nelson duets with Norah Jones, or Bono sings with Springsteen? It’s a ragged dress rehearsal of a celebrity circus that carries no original, gutsy spark. It’s all rote; a Starbucks CD sitting next to the Sugar Cookies. Then Jesse Winchester nails it. One to the heart and head; that tear rolls down Neko’s cheek. What songs are supposed to do…that’s why the good ones were written. To move the heart for a moment. Have we forgotten? We live in this age when people can’t tell the difference between Madeleine Peyroux and Billie Holiday. And this is a grand difference; like red Kool Aid verses hot Blood. But maybe I’m just a blind old disgruntled puma prowling a cage in Switzerland…looking for something to gnaw on. Something with meat. The lion in winter. It’s time to shut up and write new songs; not forgetting Leonard Cohen in Phoenix and Jesse Winchester… and that tear rolling down Neko’s cheek.
Happy New Year and thanks for hanging in there with us….TR. Swissland.

Reporter’s note: This story has been edited for clarity.
Three New Mexico school districts addressed their processes for disposing of athletic turf after being mentioned at a Roswell Independent School District board meeting last month.
How old turf was handled in Artesia, Lovington and Hobbs was raised by Superintendent Dr. Ann Lynn McIlroy when questions came up about RISD’s own turf-disposal process after a renovation of the Wool Bowl.
Nearly a month has passed since information surfaced at the RISD school board meeting on Aug. 13 that Wool Bowl turf had been distributed throughout Roswell, including to McIlroy’s house.
On May 14, RISD’s school board awarded a contract for the $1 million project to replace the 11-year-old turf and track at the Wool Bowl Stadium on North Grand Avenue.

“Our contractor feels strongly that he was at liberty to dispose of the salvage by any means he saw fit, according to his contract, including giving it to community members,” McIlroy said. “We are checking this with the state auditor’s office.”
Chad Cole, RISD assistant superintendent of finance and operations, confirmed the district self-reported “for non-compliance of its own procedures, policies and of the state’s statutes concerning the disposal of Fixed Assets of Real Property.”
He said the district reported to their independent public accountants and the state auditor for potential “for further investigation and/or criminal referral, if deemed applicable.”
The superintendent said the district is still awaiting a response from the Public Education Department and the state auditor in regard to corrective action.
At the school board meeting, McIlroy said districts in Artesia, Lovington and Hobbs gave out turf to their district personnel and community members.
This was the reason she shared for thinking it was permissible for RISD to do the same thing.
John Ross Null, Artesia superintendent, was not involved in the turf removal 11 years ago, but he said his district has two turf replacements planned for this fall.
He said for both projects, the contract “calls for the contractor to dispose of the used turf.”
Lovington Superintendent LeAnne Gandy informed the Daily Record that her school district renovated their athletic fields last December. Gandy said the turf was removed and recycled as written in the contract with the company performing the work on the turf. She said Lovington did not give out their turf to employees or the community.
Gene Strickland, Hobbs’ associate superintendent, said the 13-year-old turf at Watson Stadium was replaced two years ago, in the fall. He said this “asset was carried on our books and was depreciated out showing zero dollar value.”
“… As the community became aware of the construction project and HMS plan for disposal via landfill, many members of the community desired to have the turf,” Strickland wrote in an email. “The contractor staged the turf in the stadium parking lot for disposal and would load the dumpster available until full and haul off, then a replacement was provided.
“As the turf was awaiting haul-off, members of the community did acquire pieces of the turf. HMS and its contractor did dispose of what the community did not pick up prior to our hauling it away to a landfill.
“To my knowledge, district staff did not acquire any of this useless turf.”
When the Daily Record asked for a statement from RISD after the other districts responded, McIlroy wrote: “I checked with Hobbs about the depreciation and our business office elected not to do that. Artesia put theirs in the trash and community members retrieved it from the garbage. Lovington’s contractor disposed of theirs.”
As of early this week, Juan Oropesa and Orlando Padilla, who represent the Coalition for Equity and Fiscal Responsibility, relayed that they have reached out to the school district and were left with unanswered questions for the event they have named “turfgate.”
Padilla was the community member who brought up the superintendent having turf at her home during public comment at the Aug. 13 meeting.
“We need to be told as taxpayers — the truth — about what happened,” Padilla said, and he believes there should be an investigation of the situation.
Oropesa said bringing this up was not “a personal issue” against the superintendent.
He and Padilla both said the coalition is focused on “equity and fiscal responsibility” at the school district, not allegations of racism or discrimination that were raised by some following a reshuffling of administrative personnel at the end of last school year.
“When you find out that statements are not true, you have to wonder what else has been done that we’re — the community is not being told,” Oropesa said, referring to McIlroy’s comment on Aug. 13 about the Artesia, Lovington and Hobbs districts.
The coalition members said they wanted to know on behalf of the community what happened, or will happen, to the used turf collected by the community and district staff — if it was transported and delivered by district personnel and vehicles, what the board and district plan on doing to address the issue and what the cost of the turf was.
RISD school board members did not respond by press time to questions on these topics asked by the Daily Record.
“In all likelihood, it will not entail recovery of the items since we have no way of knowing the total number of rolls claimed by community members,” McIlroy stated. “In that regard, what is done is done. The district is moving forward to ensure our internal processes are communicated thoroughly so as to avoid an error of this nature in the future.”
For the turf at her own house, McIlroy said she “paid to have it removed and disposed.”
She said none of the additional turf was returned to the school, and the district is not requiring it to be returned.
Though the question was addressed to Brian Byrd, RISD assistant superintendent of talent management, via email, McIlroy responded, writing that Byrd also collected used turf “as a community member.”
On the transportation question, Cole said there was a documented work order for the maintenance department to pick up and deliver the used turf: 10 rolls to RHS, 14 to GHS and five rolls to New Mexico Military Institute.
However, Cole said no other alleged deliveries or locations, or other quantities of turf, were documented by the school district or the contracted vendor. McIlroy added that the contractor didn’t deliver the used turf and community members “were responsible for picking up any salvage.”
Coalition members also voiced concerns about the district not following — therefore, violating — their own policies, while being paid high-level salaries through taxpayer dollars.
For the turf incident, the coalition is concerned for the school’s future bonding capacity, which could negatively “impact on our community and our schools, particularly the kids,” said Oropesa.

Francis Marion University men's soccer head coach Luis Rincon has announced the signing of midfielders Sebastian "Seba" Garcia of Asunción, Paraguay, and Kimo Rolf Eckhard Lemke of Hamburg, Germany, to national letters of intent to attend FMU this fall and play for the Patriots.
Garcia, 6-2 and 176 pounds, comes to Francis Marion from the Catholic University of Asunción and will have three years of eligibility with the Patriots. He is a product of Goethe High School.
"Seba is a defensive midfielder with good size," Rincon said. "I have seen him play live in Paraguay. He will provide us with different options in the midfield while also being a good defender. He has experience playing with a very prestigious youth academy."
Lemke, 5-11 and 161 pounds, is a product of Walddörfer Gymnasium and he will enter FMU as a freshman. He has most recently played with the Eimsbütteler TV Hamburg program, where he has appeared in 36 matches over the past three seasons.
"Even though he is young, Kimo has played at a very high youth level in the Bundesliga. He is a very technical player, has good vision on the field, and will help us a lot in the midfield."
Rincon lost only two seniors off last season's 16-5-1 squad that won the Peach Belt Conference Tournament title and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Division II national tournament. Francis Marion finished the season ranked 22nd nationally.

Producers take on Chuck Palahniuk's porn pic
Duo has overseen the production on projects including Matthew Vaughn’s “Kick Ass,” Harmony Korine’s “Mister Lonely” and upcoming UK sitcoms “The Midnight Beast” and “PLEBS.”
Aperture Entertainment’s Adam Goldworm has come on to produce along with Magro and O’Toole. Also producing are Golan Ramras, who co-wrote the script with “Snuff” helmer Fabien Martorell, who recently wrapped docu “The Guns Story.”
“Snuff” takes place during a porn priestess’ attempt to have sex with 600 men on-camera. Pic is told from the perspective of three of those men in a story of love and redemption.
Palahniuk, the bestselling author of “Fight Club,” is famous for his often extreme subject matter. His other works include “Diary,” “Survivor” and “Lullaby,” the latter of which centers around a children’s song that kills.
Goldworm is currently producing Warner Bros.’ “Lore” and Summit’s “The Last Witch Hunter.” Other credits include Showtime’s “Masters of Horro” and NBC’s “Fear Itself.”

Drug discovery company focused of developing psychedelics drugs which meet medical standards CaaMTech Inc. has entered into a partnership with University of Wyoming’s School of Pharmacy to study how psychedelics can be used to treat addictions.
This study will be led by Dr. Ana Clara Bobadilla, an assistant professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Wyoming and she will be heading the research on behalf of the University.
“The collaboration with CaaMTech provides a great opportunity for the Wyoming biomedical community to work on cutting-edge therapeutics, as well as for local students to learn new preclinical models used in the lab. I am eager to investigate psychedelics as a potential therapeutic target a class of drugs that the substance abuse field might have overlooked for too long,” said Dr. Bobadilla.
The researcher from University of Wyoming will be evaluating next generation psychedelics drugs from the library of CaaMTech using several established preclinical addiction methods. Some of concluded studies have shown that mostly used psychedelics pose a little risk of abuse from addiction.
Recently conducted studies have been proving that psychedelics have the potential to treat addictions. The researchers will be evaluating CaaMTech’s library of compounds including dual cocaine a sucrose self-administration model developed by the Bobadilla Lab.
“With this research collaboration, we aim to show that CaaMTech’s compounds have minimal risk of addiction and also tremendous potential for treating it. CaaMTech aims to increase the number of compounds with established therapeutic properties. We are grateful for the opportunity to work with Dr. Bobadilla to advance our fundamental understanding of addiction and how to treat it,” said CaaMTech’s CEO, Dr. Andrew Chadeayne.


I just bought Pokemon Alpha Sapphire for myself and Omega Ruby for my friend. I also played the X/Y games and I have Pokebank. The problem is: I didn't play games of the 5th and 4th generation. I basically skipped the Nintendo DS games and started playing again with the release of Pokemon X/Y.
My question is: Is it possible to complete the Pokedex with only the four 6th Gen games (X, Y, Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire)? Or will there be some unobtainable Pokemon?
I'm not talking about the rare legendary ones like Celebi, Arceus etc. I just want to know whether I need to use a 5th gen game or not to "Catch 'Em All".

PARIS — Could Hedi Slimane end up back at LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton?
The men's wear star, who parted with Dior Homme in March, has renewed talks with LVMH chairman Bernard Arnault about the launch of a Hedi Slimane fashion house, industry sources said.
The likelihood of a deal could not immediately be learned. LVMH declined comment on Monday and Slimane could not be reached.
However, sources described the recent talks as serious, underscoring that the designer has maintained excellent relations with the luxury titan.
One of Paris' biggest fashion stars, Slimane surprised the industry with his exit from Dior Homme, which under his creative tenure brought skinny tailoring and rock 'n' roll style back to the forefront of fashion, and electrified men's fashion week here.
Slimane said he walked away from Dior "freely" after failing to reach an agreement about a Dior-backed Hedi Slimane house. Ownership of the Slimane brand name and control rights were said to be among the contentious issues during the initial talks.
But Slimane left the door open to reconciliation, posting a letter on his Web site shortly after exiting Dior Homme thanking Arnault for trusting him with the project. "I hope he will understand my position and decision, if not now, then hopefully with some time," Slimane wrote.
While he has recently channeled his energies into his burgeoning career as an artist and photographer, Slimane is said to be eager to get back into the fashion game with an independent label.
But it appears Arnault might not be alone in Slimane's web of intrigue. The designer is rumored to be talking to Diesel's Renzo Rosso about possible backing as well. Besides owning Diesel, Rosso backs Martin Margiela and Sophia Kokosalaki, among other businesses.
For his part, Arnault is said to want to lure Slimane back into his stable of fashion stars, prizing the 39-year-old's design prowess and wide-screen brand vision.
An art history graduate from the Ecole du Louvre, Slimane burst onto the fashion scene in the late Nineties as the men's wear creative director at YSL, earning standing ovations for collections that were seductively androgynous and crackling with modern energy.In 2000, he resigned from YSL and accepted a job offer from Arnault, showing his first Dior Homme collection in January 2001, injecting the brand with buzz and a strong youth appeal.
Since then, many retailers have queried about a Slimane women's line, since he already enjoyed a cult female following, having dressed the likes of Madonna, Charlotte Rampling, Linda Evangelista and Nicole Kidman.
Meanwhile, Dior Homme's new designer Kris Van Assche is readying for his runway debut for the French brand on Jan. 20.
@pantone announced their Color of the Year 2018: Ultra Violet. Nearly 20 months after the musician Prince’s death, fashion is having a purple moment. Varying shades of purple appeared on spring or fall runways, from @christopherkane to @calvinklein. @gucci’s Alessandro Michele bathed his fall runway in ultra violet-colored light at one point. Pantone 18-3838 is meant to “push the boundaries of what inspires us to look upward and outward to the future.” #wwdnews #wwdfashion (📷: @kukukuba)

It is reported that, AMD will begin mass production early in December this year, Ontario APU, using the TSMC 40nm process production line. This is accelerating the integration of AMD's first processors available, the industry's first such mainstream products.
As the light of this, the Internet is not very strong demand in this market, some market observers on notebook sales in Ontario APU conservative approach, but AMD said this processor power consumption is very low, the heat is very small, very cheap prices, same processor, graphics core performance is very strong, balanced, and has attracted a lot of notebook manufacturers, with orders.

Colorful KC West Bottoms Engagement Session
When we sat down with Mercedies and Chais to plan their engagement session they made it pretty easy on us. They knew they wanted something different, urban, and kind of grungy. They love going to First Friday weekends in the West Bottoms, and think the area is so neat. These two were so excited to have their session in one of their favorite KC neighborhoods! The day of their session rolled around and it was absolutely gorgeous. So gorgeous, that there were photographers everywhere! Luckily the West Bottoms is so spread out and has lots of great areas to shoot in and around.

The Nation Media Group has extended its Newspapers in Education (NiE) initiative to Marsabit County.
The programme was hailed for engaging constructively young minds through the pages of the Daily Nation and Taifa Leo newspapers.
The NiE programme is a cooperative effort between schools, examiners and NMG to promote the use of newspapers as an educational resource.
Speaking during its launch and activation at Dakabaricha Secondary School in Marsabit Central sub-county, Principal Ibrahim Gere emphasised the need for other schools to consistently promote the reading of newspapers to boost a reading culture.
“Both our students and teachers learned new things during the Newspapers in Education activation programme in our school. We learned new information retention skills, comprehension, and question-answering skills. We hope the programme will boost our school performance,” Mr Gere said.
Mr Gere was impressed by the outcome of a one-hour interactive lesson conducted by NMG NiE manager Annie Gitau, calling it an intelligent and immersive learning experience for students with a focus on boosting a reading culture.
He was particularly impressed that the programme brings learning alive through immersive question-and-answer sessions, short, augmented comprehension, and communication skills.
Furthermore, it enhances conceptual understanding and information retention by helping learners remember the names of people, things, numbers, geographical locations, and names repeated in any given text that they read.
He was optimistic that the programme would boost his school’s performance.
Dakabaricha Secondary School Journalism Club patron Jacob Kirimi was also upbeat that the programme would open his students’ minds to the outer world and further improve their imaginative writing and comprehension skills.
Marsabit County newspapers agent Tito Nderitu, a former high school teacher, underscored the importance of the NiE, saying it would boost the students’ language skills, especially English and Swahili.
Ms Gitau said the programme targets schools all over Kenya.
Since its inception, it has covered 600 schools and learners have benefited immensely.
She urged other schools to embrace the transformative learning programmes.
The NiE is an initiative of the Nation Media Group that seeks to improve children’s language, reading, comprehension and numeracy skills and prepare them to answer questions from a point of view and position of understanding.
For as little as Sh20,000 per term or Sh60,000 annually, a school subscribes to 20 copies of the Daily Nation every Monday and 30 Taifa Leo newspapers every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday for primary schools, or Thursday, Friday and Saturday for secondary schools.
School board members, parents, alumni, government officials, corporations and individuals can sponsor a school to get the newspapers.
The Nation Media Group also offers services such as visitation and activation of learning material extraction from the newspapers.
Learners participate in quizzes and in return win gifts and merchandise.
Photos of the activation session also get published in the Daily Nation or Taifa Leo newspapers.
Schools are also honoured through trophies if they stay in the programme for one year.
The enrolled schools enjoy free delivery of newspapers to their schools or at an agreed drop-off point.
The schools also get enrolled in the Insha Competition, where students and teachers stand a chance of winning cash prizes and school fees.

Description: The Congressional Budget Office’s (CBO) January 2004 budget report for FY2005 (the Budget and Economic Outlook: Fiscal Years 2005-2014) estimated the FY2005 baseline deficit at $362 billion, not much different from that proposed by the Administration. Selected alternative policies included in the CBO report, estimates for the cost of extending the tax cuts, reforming the AMT, and letting discretionary spending grow at the rate of gross domestic product (GDP) growth, would increase the deficit, particularly in the years beyond FY2009.
