[Aimone Sharif | Contributing Writer]
On the 23rd of March, the documentary “To Light a Candle” by Maziar Bahari was shown at the University of Hertfordshire. Education is a gift the Western world takes for granted, but in the Middle East, education is rare and sometimes the desire to learn is considered a crime.
This documentary shows the persecutions and the difficulties faced by the Baha’is when trying to get an education in Iran. In the Muslim dominant country, the Baha’is are the largest minority (300,000 members), closely followed by Christians and Jews. The Baha’i faith is a monotheist religion that does not believe that the Prophet Mohammed was the last prophet; because of their difference in theology, Baha’is are seen as second class citizens and “traitors” in Iran. Due to various inequalities, Baha’is are forced to migrate out of their own country.
“To Light a Candle” follows the story of an Iranian Baha’i family who was persecuted and yet persevered to attain and deliver education. The father of the family, Rahim Rahimian, was arrested on account of being a Baha’i. He was sent to prison and tortured; a year later he was executed. Rahimian’s two sons, Keyvan and Kamran now play a big role in the Baha’i community in advocating education for all.
The history of the Baha’i
The documentary proposes a historical aspect of the Baha’is faith in Iran, showing the struggles and the pain that they face. Baha’i leaders have been captured twice, 200 Baha’i figures and leaders were murdered in 1989, all of which led to a contested right for Baha’i to be part of the society, including education. It was forbidden for a Baha’i to attend a normal Iranian school, however Baha’is were eventually able to have their own school and therefore able to teach the youth and give them a chance to reach higher education. In 1979, after the Iranian Revolution, Iranian Universities decided to expel Baha’i students no matter how good they were; depriving them of education once again.
The Baha’is did not lose courage. In 1987 the Baha’i Institute for Higher Education (BIHE) was founded, bringing Baha’i pupils together to learn and still be able to progress. Very quickly the University gained popularity – notably in Europe and America – giving the Baha’i students a chance to be taught by big university lecturers that are not Baha’i themselves but still believe in education. Education is something that everyone should have the opportunity to attain, but the BIHE lecturers and pupils still have to be extremely careful as they could face imprisonment.
The BIHE diploma is not recognised as an official diploma but can be used to enter other universities around the world. Young students travel to different locations all the time and have to learn by corresponding in hope of getting accepted to university.
Both Keyvan and Kamran have had opportunities to get an education in America thanks to BIHE. Kamran graduated at the University of Ottawa with a master’s degree in educational counselling in 2003. He was summoned to court in 2011 and sentenced to four years imprisonment at Gohardasht prison. Keyvan is a BIHE graduate in psychology and had been involved in private practice as a counsellor; he is also a psychology instructor at BIHE. He was arrested in 2012 and was summoned to begin his five year imprisonment sentence.
The Rahimian brothers represent both courage and dignity and are suffering for their country. Is it fair for people to be denied education? Is it fair that professors are jailed for the only reason of teaching?
Education is Not a Crime Campaign
Naysan Saberian, a graduate from the University explains how his ancestors were killed because of their faith and is grateful to be in an environment where everyone has access to education. He says:
“This is not only a matter of access to education but a human rights issue too.”
Saleem Vaillancourt, a journalist working alongside Maziar explains: “Education is freedom of mind; it is acquiring the power to learn about the world and make our own choices as individuals.”
He continues on, saying that the difficulty of the campaign lays in needing to transcend limitations and turn it into a universal campaign.
The campaign gained support of notable public figures, such as American actor, director, producer and screenwriter Mark Ruffalo, actor Rainn Wilson and British Comedian, Omid Djalili. Mark Ruffalo’s Youtube video advocating education was published on Facebook and reached 100,000 views last month.
To help raise awareness and stop education from being denied to Baha’is and any other minority in any country, please follow the campaign “Education is Not a Crime” on Facebook, #educationisnotacrime on Twitter and read more about the campaign at educationisnotacrime.me

After 20 years of poking fun at American culture, the Simpsons are scheduled to land at Ben-Gurion Airport to target Israel.
The episode set in the Holy Land, titled “The Greatest Story Ever D’ohed,” is scheduled to air on Sunday, March 28, coinciding with both Passover eve and Palm Sunday.
The plot involves Homer developing Jerusalem Syndrome (becoming mentally unbalanced after arriving in the Jerusalem) and Marge interacting with an aggressive Israeli tour guide, voiced by Sacha Baron Cohen of “Borat” and “Bruno” fame.
“[The tour guide is] trying to get Marge to give him good grades on the comment card, and she goes, ‘You people are pushy,’ and he goes, ‘What do you mean, you people? You try having Syria for a neighbor! What do you have — Canada?’ ” the show’s producer, Al Jean, told Entertainment Weekly. “It’ll be a show that all faiths can come together and be offended by.”
Israeli Tourism Minister Stas Meseznikov welcomed the visit of America’s famous cartoon family, whose journeys will be focused on Jerusalem.
“The series is released to millions of children around the world, and releasing a special part about Israel will without a doubt create an improvement in the reputation of Israel in the world and will encourage people to come and visit and enjoy Israel,” Meseznikov’s press secretary, Amnon Liebermann, said. “We hope initiatives like this will continue.”
In the episode, Ned Flanders invites the Simpsons to join him on a church trip to Jerusalem, hoping that such a journey will help redeem Homer. However, Homer is unappreciative of the culture until a tour guide starts taking him around.
“The Simpsons” is the longest-running comedy on U.S. television, with more than 450 episodes. Jewish references have figured prominently on the show, including Krusty the Clown, born Herschel Shmoikel Pinkus Yerucham Krustofski. Krusty’s father is an Orthodox rabbi, voiced by comedian Jackie Mason.
Last December, the Vatican’s newspaper, L’Osservatore Romano, congratulated “The Simpsons” on its 20th anniversary and praised the way the show often weaves religious and philosophical arguments into the episodes.
Rumors of the Simp-sons’ visit started last March and were confirmed in September. The first images from the episode, showing the Simpsons at the Western Wall, were released this week.
“The Christians, the Jews and Muslims are united in that they all get mad at Homer. It’s the only thing they can agree on,” Jean said.
“The Simpsons” episode “The Greatest Story Ever D’ohed” is scheduled for 8 p.m. Sunday, March 28, on KTVU Channel 2.

Having warts on the bottom of the feet that won’t go away is a frustrating, ongoing problem that can last months or even years. They can make walking unpleasant but also painful. While many people are told that they should just wait for the wart to go away on its own, or to use padding in the meantime that only ever provides a little temporary relief, the reality is that when left untreated, warts can stick around for a very long time.
Ingrown toenails on a woman's foot, pain in the big toe closeup
Ingrown toenails, also known as onychocryptosis, are a common and painful complaint. A true ingrown toenail is when a spike or edge of nail pierces the skin at the nail edge. This is known as the sulcus and can cause inflammation and even lead to infection.
There are a variety of factors that can cause ingrown toenails. The most common cause is due to improper cutting of your toenail and leaving a spike of nail in the sulcus. It can also be a result of a curved nail, known as an involuted nail, from external pressure.
If you are experiencing pain, redness, and swelling around your toenail, it may be time to consider seeing one of our podiatrists. With over 30 years of combined experience in treating foot and ankle conditions, we have successfully treated many cases of ingrown toenails.
Approximately 200,000 Australians are hospitalised every year as a result of having a fall. Bone fractures are the most common type of injury resulting from a fall. While falls are most common in those aged over 65, young males aged 5-24 years are also particularly prone to falls.
Are you one of the 48% of Australians that wakes up with heel pain once a week?
If heel pain is impacting how you move, how you feel, and how you live, then it’s time to get help from My FootDr.
Heel pain, often caused by plantar fasciitis, is a common condition that can cause severe pain at the bottom and inside of the heel. This pain may radiate up into the arch, and indicates that there is some damage to, and subsequent inflammation of, the long band of tissue under the foot known as the plantar fascia.

Dengue cases increase in Portland
The Ministry of Health is appealing to residents in Portland to rid their surroundings of mosquito breeding sites, such as containers that can hold water. The appeal comes amid an increase in reported cases of dengue.
The disclosure was made by Dr Sharon Lewis, senior medical officer for Portland, during the monthly sitting of the Portland Municipal Corporation on Thursday. Lewis said that the parish has seen a steady increase in suspected cases of dengue fever, which is caused by a virus transmitted by mosquitoes.
“At the end of August, there were 276 suspected cases of dengue fever reported for 2019,” said Lewis.
She added: “For the first week of September, 13 suspected dengue fever cases have been [noted]. The information on the location of these dengue fever cases, whether they are suspected or confirmed, is what is used to help to guide our operations in the field, including how we organise our fogging schedule.”
She noted that the parish has three health districts: the Manchioneal health district, the Port Antonio health district, and the Buff Bay health district.
“So most of the cases are being seen in the Port Antonio health district, and this is from the increase during the period June to the first week of September,” she revealed.
Lewis said that a small team of vector-control workers, who receive support from 60 temporary workers, is deployed in communities across the parish and educate residents about how to control mosquito breeding and reduce the spread of mosquito-borne diseases.
“They search breeding sites for mosquitoes and treat or destroy them. They also record their findings, and we use this data to guide our activities. So far, there has been one confirmed death as it relates to dengue fever, which involved a small child last year,” Lewis added.
Several communities, including Prospect, Anchovy Land Settlement, Breastworks, Boundbrook, Stony Hill, Bryan’s Bay, and Fellowship, have been experiencing a mosquito nuisance.

Initially, I wasn’t too interested in the Silver Bayonet, but I recently met some local gamers who were getting into it pretty heavily, so I figured why not do up a little unit and join in? Using the Victrix Bavarian models (with the Austrian unit list) I wanted the unit to have more of napoleonic army special unit look. The official models look more like generic gothic warband to me.
The unit is: an officer (mounted and unmounted), dhamphir, tactician, occultist, and three infantryman.
For the dhamphir, I went with a blood bowl dark elf lineman head. The dark elf head is slightly bigger than the body but that might not stand out as much once painted. Besides, maybe big headedness is a result of his dhamphirism? I went back and forth on his helmet. Decided to keep it fantasy for a little fantastical/supernatural element to the unit. Maybe those helmets are assigned to dhamphirs in the Bavarian army?
The dhamphir looks better primed and good at arms/table length. I think he’ll be fine for gameplay.
Thinking the unit is a collection of soldiers that hunt what goes bump in the night, I wanted to lean into a more dark/muted color scheme rather than the bold, bright colors I saw online of Napoleonic era Bavarians. Fortunately, I came across the cover of the following Osprey book, and the gentleman on the left had similar colors to what I had in mind.
With that, here’s Der Nachtruf:
The dhamphir’s blue skin helps him stand out in the unit and I appreciate how the model using a musket as a one-handed weapon implies a supernatural strength. The monk, I was thinking I might actually do in dark blue robes to match the others, but opted to stick with traditional browns so the unit retains a historical feel and doesn’t dip too far into fantasy.
My brushwork isn’t the best, but I like the results.

The Bitcoin Cash (BCH) chain has officially upgraded, adding Schnorr signatures and the Segwit recovery exemption. As of block 582680, the chain has implemented the new features successfully and BCH fans are celebrating another major protocol improvement.
Another Bitcoin Cash Upgrade Achieved
On Wednesday, May 15, the Bitcoin Cash network has completed yet another successful upgrade by implementing two new features — Segwit recovery and Schnorr signatures. Essentially, the Segwit recovery addition makes it possible for network participants to recover funds that have been sent to Segwit addresses by accident. The implementation makes an exemption following the enforcement of the new CLEANSTACK rule that made Segwit recovery previously impossible after the upgrade last November. But the high profile feature everyone’s been chatting about is the implementation of Schnorr signatures, a digital signature scheme that allows for complex signing abilities.
The signature scheme was invented by Claus Schnorr and cryptocurrency developers have been looking into adding the scheme for years but it was patented. Now that the patent has expired, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) developers ran with the idea and decided to add the preliminary basics of Schnorr signatures to the main chain. In conversation last week, developer Mark Lundeburg told news.Bitcoin.com that the basics of Schnorr signatures can slash roughly 4% off current transaction storage. In the future, after another Schnorr related upgrade, the scheme could provide for public signature aggregation and more complex sign-to-contract concepts.

This is a workshop with a difference. It has two purposes: firstly, to allow you to learn the craft of crochet (or improve existing skills) and secondly to take part in a creative conversation about how traditional domestic skills relate to women’s place in society.
This will be a relaxed, cosy winter warmer of a day and will feature crochet, talking, tea, firesides and cakes. Artist Jill Skulina will focus on designing and making decorative doilies, those humble but fun objects which enhance any table. Any skill level is welcome. If you have never crocheted before Jill will start you off with an introduction and you’ll be making your own lovely things in no time. The chat will range from reminiscences of family domestic skills, to how soft materials such as wools can be used symbolically to portray emotion.
All tools and wool supplied are supplied and you will have the chance to buy additional materials from a specialist supplier on the day.
Since December 2016 Jill has been supported by Fife Visual Artist & Craft Maker Award and their Development Programme. She creates figurative work using sumptuous, hand dyed soft merino wool to crochet cocooned dolls juxtaposed with cold, hard snowcrete.

Dennis Seidenberg out with lower-body injury
|01.21.13 at 12:16 pm ET|
Bruins defenseman Dennis Seidenberg will not play in Monday’s matinee against the Jets due to a lower-body injury, according to the team. Aaron Johnson is in the lineup in his place. The team said Seidenberg is day-to-day.
Based on pre-game warmups, Dougie Hamilton, Seidenberg’s partner in the season-opener, will skate on a pairing with Zdeno Chara. The other pairings are Andrew Ference-Adam McQuaid and Johnson-Johnny Boychuk.
Claude Julien said prior to Monday’s matinee that it will be Tuukka Rask in net for the B’s. Rask, who inherited the No. 1 netminding job with Tim Thomas taking the year off, made 20 saves on 21 shots in the season-opening win over the Rangers Saturday.

The Minnesota Vikings scored their biggest win of the year in May, several months before the 2012 season even started.
That’s when the Legislature approved a $975 million Vikings stadium on the existing site of the Metrodome in downtown Minneapolis. The team will pay $477 million, the state will contribute $348 million and the city of Minneapolis will cover $150 million.
Construction for the 65,000-seat stadium is scheduled to begin in October 2013.
The Vikings stadium deal also includes money for a major Target Center renovation that likely will cost at least $100 million. So far, that project has been delayed by disputes between Minneapolis and private parties — the Minnesota Timberwolves and arena operator AEG — over the total cost of the project and who will pay what.
And, finally, the St. Paul Saints also will get a new ballpark in the city’s Lowertown. The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development awarded $25 million in state grants toward the $54 million project.
The St. Paul Area Chamber of Commerce and local businesses had lobbied hard for the ballpark, making it a top legislative priority and arguing it will spur additional development in downtown St. Paul.

Timeline of the Philosophical Radicals
This is a timeline of the Philosophical Radicals, a nineteenth century British reform movement inspired by the utilitarian ideas of Jeremy Bentham, also advocating legal, economic, and social reforms including free trade and reform of Parliament and the judiciary. The goal of this movement was to build a society based on rationalistic principles.

|Time period||Development summary||More details|
|Late 18th to Early 19th Century||Early Formation and Influence||The core ideas and influences of the Philosophical Radicals begin to take shape. Figures like Jeremy Bentham and James Mill emerge as key thinkers during this period. They advocate for utilitarianism, individual liberty, and political reform based on rational principles. Their ideas emphasize the importance of reason, evidence, and the pursuit of happiness as the foundation for social and political progress. Bentham's works, such as An Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation and The Principles of Political Economy, lay the groundwork for the movement. In the 1820, the philosophical radicals, as a group, come to prominence.|
|Mid-19th Century||Political Activism and Reform||This period witnesses the rise of the Philosophical Radicals as a political force. Led by figures like John Stuart Mill and his associates, they actively engage in political activism and push for various reforms. This includes campaigns for universal suffrage, women's rights, free trade, workers' rights, and the separation of church and state. John Stuart Mill's influential works, such as On Liberty and Utilitarianism, further popularize the ideas of the Philosophical Radicals and advocate for individual freedom, toleration, and the maximization of happiness for the greatest number of people. By the second half of the 19thC, much of the philosophical radicals’ program has been realised.|
|Late 19th to Early 20th Century||Evolution and Impact||The influence of the Philosophical Radicals continues to evolve and impact society. Their ideas find resonance in various social and political movements, including the labor movement, feminism, and the fight for social justice. The utilitarian principles and emphasis on evidence-based policymaking championed by the Philosophical Radicals also contributes to the development of modern welfare states and progressive reforms in areas such as education, healthcare, and social welfare.|

Cost benefits of water jet cutting through quality and speed
Maximum throughput with uniformly high quality
â€“ the main benefits of water jet cutting
The cost benefits of water jet cutting are mainly due to the fact that it makes it possible to create a precise, reproducible and easily automated process. Tool wear and the retooling times this incurs a significantly reduced compared to conventional cutting processes. This means no loss of quality caused by tool wear. Workpieces cut with a water jet have a precise finish and can be used without any further work â€“ yet another point of cost benefits of water jet cutting.
Complex parts, in particular, are more cost-effective
The cost benefits of water jet cutting are primarily achieved if the workpiece is made of a material which is difficult to cut using conventional methods. Or if the shape of the workpiece is complicated. In addition, the costs of media for water jet cutting are low. If, for example, foam is cut with pure water, in other words no abrasives are added, the cost per metre of cutting is around 2 cents. For construction steel which is cut using abrasives, the cost per metre is around 4 euros. The operation of the systems can also be enhanced from a cost point of view. For example, a long, complete cutting jet means cost benefits of water jet cutting because if the jet is started and stopped frequently, this places great stress on the nozzles and seals. Cost benefits of water jet cutting can also be achieved in the planning process since the lower the quality of the cut needs to be, the cheaper the system becomes. In other words, is a simple cut required or does it need to be a quality cut? There are various stages between these two extremes which, in addition to quality, affect the price and feed speed.

The easy dessert and making it based on simple cookie recipes from scratch is slightly easier than the main course menu. But, it still requires some diligent manner on the process in the kitchen, since it incorporates several techniques. Anyone loves cookies and has their favorite recipe that is the best moment to reminiscent all of the past memorable moment with our beloved families or the special person in our life. Especially, when the cookies have just been taken out from the oven which on the warm temperature, and it tastes better than the cold cookies. Tasting the new and warm food allows our nerves and sense appreciate each swallow in our mouth which eventually make us wondering on how to make it on our personal hands creatively? Whether we are going to make some cookies for the holiday or thanksgiving or informal gathering cookies is the real friend to those positive events.
There are many cookies and they are, sugar cookies which is a classical cookies dough that is sprinkled with sugar tightly, a cranberry meringue which is a low cost cookies which made by butter and a bit decoration, next one is a bit tighter to our morning stomach which is good for most people since the morning is a new day where we start the most energy-consuming and therefore we need a full fuel in our body – the oatmeal chocolate chip cookies in cup. This medium heavy food that happens in the early sunrise is mixed with a chocolate mess. A white chocolate cranberry cookies is different than those above which at particular ingredients, use the same idea, but there are differences which on the usage of fruit & the white cocoa. Now, we arrive at the heavier kinds which from the appearances is tempting, and a must try – the choco-cherry nut cookie pizza that take 12 minutes on the making process with a cherry as the tongue-twisted swallow. Need some definite guidance on making 1 example of the cookies world beverage? Here it goes, we are going to bake an easy one which is a chocolate chunk cookies which need baking soda, eggs, flour, unsalted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla extraction, sour cream, and a walnut.
We need to heat some 350 degrees oven, and while the oven is heating we could mixing all those delectable stuff using electrical mixer, after all of the small substance get mixed balance – we bake the raw cookies in the oven within 16 minutes.
Delicious Simple Cookie Recipes from Scratch
A Simple Cookie Recipes from Scratch has to be delicious unless it will spoil out mood and minds. Instead of cooking 1 type of cookies, we need to pay attention to what is the cookies core taste, in order not all taste is sweet but diverse. For instance, a whole breakfast menu that filled with sweet food is not a healthy decision, instead of cleverly mix and match for a richer nutrient to our body.

- Bitcoin has continued consolidating within the upper-$11,000 region overnight
- This extended period of sideways trading has come about despite it facing multiple recent rejections at $12,000
- Its inability to break above this level has so far not led it to see any notable near-term downside, with $11,700 becoming a strong level of support
- This support level was previously a crucial resistance that it was struggling to close above
- Yesterday marked the first daily – and weekly – close that the cryptocurrency had been able to post above this crucial level
- This has led analysts to believe that upside is imminent, with one even targeting the region around $14,000
Bitcoin and the aggregated cryptocurrency market have been flashing mixed signs in recent weeks, with Ethereum seeing strong upwards momentum as BTC continues consolidating.
This trend has done little to offer BTC investors insight into the cryptocurrency’s mid-term outlook.
It does remain firmly bullish over a macro time frame, but its stalling momentum has struck fear into some investors.
One analyst, however, is now explaining that the higher high it was able to post on its weekly candle seems to indicate that upside is imminent.
He even believes that this next movement could send its price surging as high as $14,000.
Bitcoin Posts Bullish Weekly Close Despite Inability to Break $12,000
Bitcoin bulls may be laying the groundwork for a movement past $12,000.
Although the benchmark cryptocurrency has been consolidating beneath $12,000 for the past few weeks, its technical outlook is growing brighter.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading up marginally at its current price of $11,900. This is around where it has been trading for the past day.
Because it was able to close at this price level, its daily and weekly candles both closed above $11,700 for the first time since 2017.
While speaking about this, one analyst offered a chart showing the historical significance of the $11,700 level.
“First ever successful close above 11,700 since the mania run in 2017.”

Here’s How High This Technical Strength May Lead BTC
“BTC: Heading toward another higher-high on the weekly close. Next levels to watch on weekly IMO, are $13,600 to $14,100,” he said.

This recent bullish weekly and daily candle close will likely be one of the primary factors that help send Bitcoin surging past its key near-term resistance.

Concerns aplenty on nuclear waste
SAN ANTONIO — Gov. Rick Perry is pushing for a high-level radioactive waste facility. And state Speaker Joe Straus has asked a House committee to wrestle with the issue of creating such a facility — perhaps in West Texas.
There are perfectly legitimate concerns attached; each one must be satisfactorily answered. If they can't be, Texas simply shouldn't allow such a facility.
Can it be safely stored?
We're not talking about low-level radioactive waste, a site for which Texas already has. High-level radioactive waste generally involves spent nuclear rods, potentially deadly even with brief exposure. Safety must be as ironclad a guarantee as is technologically possible given the life of this waste — thousands of years. No corners should be cut.
Can it be safely transported?
Accidents and human error happen, and when they do, they will potentially affect even more people during waste transport than at a facility at a remote site. But a site in West Texas — which is widely viewed as the likely location if one is built — likely means transporting waste on Interstate 10, right through San Antonio and other population centers. Ditto, if by rail. The industry contends that casks developed for transport are safe. The committee must test that.
Can the waste be stored as effectively where it is produced?
In Texas, this would be at each of the state's four nuclear plants.
Environmentalists credibly argue that dry cask storage at nuclear plants cuts out the middle-man — transportation. If this is the case, why create a large site with a lot of waste? To endanger only one part of the state rather than four?
Will safety or economic impact be the trumping factor?
It should be safety.
Environmentalists fear that Straus' charge to the committee involves looking only at the economic impact of a facility. Such a site will likely be privately operated like the existing low-level site in Andrews County, run by Dallas-based Waste Control Specialists.
If this site is expanded or another picked, this means needed jobs and tax revenue. Environmental issues will be considered, the Speaker's Office said.
“This charge was referred to the Committee on Environmental Regulation so they can conduct a thorough review for possible nuclear storage and will hear from all stakeholders to ensure that environmental, economic and regulatory issues are considered,” according to a statement provided to the Editorial Board.
Will the decision be based on need or on the clout of political heavyweights?
There is the need. Like it or not, the state has four nuclear plants. These produce waste. If we use the power, we have to live and deal with the waste also generated.
But it's been widely noted that Harold Simmons, the late owner of Waste Control Specialists, gave Perry roughly $3 million — some going to Perry's campaign committee, other amounts to the Republican Governors Association when the governor was raising money for it.
Perry has been pushing for this high-level radioactive waste site. Part of the task for Straus' committee is to determine whose need is being served here.
Will this be for Texas-only waste or will it take other states' waste as well?
The federal government has botched identification and creation of a national repository. The Obama administration has given up on Yucca Mountain in Nevada. And a federal court in November, noting the disarray on this issue, told the feds they could no longer collect fees from utilities for waste storage since there is no federal facility.
States have formed compacts with other states for storage of low-level waste.
So, is Texas or a private entity operating a state site maneuvering for the state to become a national repository? And if not, are they positioning themselves to take other states' waste?
The answer has to be “no” to both but particularly on the first proposition.
Straus' committee should consider these and all other pertinent factors.


A 77-year-old woman has died following a fire at a house in North Lanarkshire.
Police said the alarm was raised on Pleamuir Place, Cumbernauld, at about 11:00 on Saturday.
The woman, who has not been named, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Crews spent around six hours battling the blaze before it was extinguished at about 15:45.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said there were no suspicious circumstances.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service confirmed it dispatched four appliances to the scene.
An investigation into the incident is under way.


If letter writer Paul Reinhertz ("Unjustified hate language", Nov. 25) is educated, then it is really pathetic that he has no clue as to what "hate language" is or the definition of racism. It is so typical of the liberal left since they have no defense for the incompetent, bumbling impostor we currently have in the White House. President Obama's arrogance, lack of leadership and difficulty with being honest and telling the truth to the American public should eventually result in the implementation of the impeachment process.
The terms I used to describe President Obama -- arrogance, limited intelligence, mediocre, total failure -- by no stretch of the imagination can or could be considered or labeled "hate language," as Mr. Reinhertz claims. It is merely an opinion expressed by me and millions of others of his last four years, a total failure putting our national security, military and defense in jeopardy, not to mention our way of life, our values and what our country represents. His anti-American sentiments and disdain for the country, are not only troubling, but very disturbing. The left believe only they are entitled to express opinions and criticize, and when done by others who don't share there leftist/socialist leanings, they label it "hate language" and "racism."
President Obama is the very definition of divisiveness and racism in the country -- class warfare and pitting various factions against one another to perpetuate his destructive un-American agenda. He criticizes FOX News when it is the main/lamestream media that is nothing more than a propaganda machine for the left and the president, totally ignoring the destructive reality of the Obama administration, where those type of actions is the norm. It has no place in a democracy and respectable society.
Mr. Reinhertz should understand what racism is before he shows his ignorance, as racism is being used by Obama to further his agenda -- exploiting minorities and rewarding through his creation of an entitlement society.
Untruths, rumors and slander are the backbone of MSNBC, the network I assume Mr. Reinhertz supports 100 percent. As a registered independent, I can tell you that President Bush was not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. But compared to President Obama, he showed and exercised leadership, and was honest, loved the country, supported the military and believed in a strong national defense while standing with our allies against our enemies. Obama's only interest are the perks of the office travel, golf, entertaining, free room and board and abusing the office, the constitution, and the laws of our land for his self serving agenda.
Mr. Reinhertz mentions Karl Rove and the Koch brothers. Quite interesting -- where has he been? I would suggest that Mr. Reinhertz take a good look around, get in touch with reality. There is no compromise from the president and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. They believe in take it or leave it -- no negotiation, just our terms and our agenda, nothing else.
Mr. Reinhertz is entitled to support and believe in President Obama. The majority of Americans, millions who didn't vote, will take the country back, and restore the greatness we once had -- as opposed to a figurehead who bows and supports our enemies, shuns our allies, compromises our national security for political gain and weakens are national defense by gutting the military. I am glad I am retired from the Army and don't have to serve under a coward-in-chief.

Jerel Registre knew the people in front of a Howard County Fire and Rescue fire truck at Tuesday’s Fulton National Night Out kickoff on a first name basis — they had been at his house that morning.
The three firefighters had responded after the fire alarm system at the Registre’s Maple Lawn house unexpectedly went off, said Registre, a small business consultant.
He and his wife, Tonya Registre, brought their 2-year-old son, Mark to the event, which they thought was important to “generate some enthusiasm so he’s not nervous as he sees bright lights.”
“He’s already excited about seeing all the trucks and the helicopters today, but it mostly comes down to just coming out and checking it out,” Jerel Registre said, adding he had petted the police horses and checked out the helicopter that landed in the grass.
The Maple Lawn event — which signified the start of celebrations at more than 30 county neighborhoods — saw well over 100 attendees, including more than 40 uniformed officers from Howard County and state police, the sheriff’s office, Howard County Department of Fire and Rescue Services, Maryland National Guard and county park rangers.
Howard County began participating in National Night Out in “the first few years,” wrote Sherry Llewellyn, a spokeswoman for county police in an email.
“We can be stronger as a community when we all work together, and this is what happens when you bring people together, we can make awesome things happen,” said Howard County Executive Allan Kittleman. “Our police officers, our firefighters, our sheriffs, everybody, are here for us but they can’t always be everywhere, so we need to work together as a community.”
Howard County Times: Top stories Newsletter
Daily highlights from Howard County's number one source for local news.
Attractions included corn hole games, a dunk tank with Ofc. Travis Turner, police horses and a state police dog, Boomer, various police vehicles — including the helicopter — and food from one of the food trucks.
Turner said he’s been dunked at previous National Night Out events and the water was “colder than last year” in Ellicott City, but that he enjoys it.
“It’s important for the community, for everybody to get together and join throughout a county,” he said. “It’s a chance for people to get to know us. We’re really active in the community already, but it just gives another opportunity to meet more people and get out there and bring everybody together.”
The National Night Out program originated in Philadelphia, and was introduced in August 1984, according to its website. The first drew 2.5 million people across 400 communities in 23 states, and has grown to 38 million people in 16,000 communities.
Justin Knczynski, of Maple Lawn, who was waiting in line for his 8-year-old son Chase to get on the helicopter, emphasized the high quality of care law enforcement provides and low crime rate in Howard County.
