Calculations based on 4kg infant and average daily infant intake of 0.78 liters breast milk.
Notably, the Boston study also found that even moms who ingested extra iodine by using iodized salt or taking multivitamins containing iodine didn't always have sufficient iodine in their breast milk.  This finding is important because it underscores the need for the government to act to reduce perchlorate contamination of food and drinking water, rather than just simply pointing to iodized salt and multivitamins as quick fixes to the perchlorate problem.
The Boston study also measured perchlorate concentrations in the mother's urine, finding a median level of 3.0 ppb. More important than the actual values, however, is the fact that these concentrations are remarkably similar to the levels of perchlorate that the CDC found in its much larger study of perchlorate exposure that tested the urine of more than 2,800 individuals.  In that study, the median urinary perchlorate concentration was 3.6 ppb. Since the perchlorate exposures in the two studies are so closely aligned, one can assume that the high levels found in the Boston women's breast milk are, unfortunately, probably typical of the general U.S. population.
Taken together, the weight of the evidence from these studies strongly support the conclusion that perchlorate is a major public health threat that needs to be addressed. Yet, there are still no federal safety standards for perchlorate in drinking water or food. Under pressure from the Pentagon and the defense industry, EPA has delayed setting a drinking water standard for perchlorate. California is in the final stages of adopting a perchlorate drinking water standard of 6 ppb, recommended by state scientists before release of the September, 2006 CDC study. The proposed standard in New Jersey is 5 ppb. Last July, Massachusetts adopted 2 ppb as the nation's first legally enforceable drinking water standard.
Senators Boxer, Feinstein, and Lautenberg and Representative Solis from California have introduced legislation in the U.S. Senate and House of Representative that seeks to improve perchlorate monitoring and regulation to better protect public health.
Breast milk is by far the healthiest food for infants. However, the perchlorate levels found in breast milk in this CDC/BU study are alarming. The doses of pechlorate that infants are getting from ingesting this food are far higher than doses that have been shown to cause significant disruptions of thyroid hormone levels in many adult women. We also know that infants are more vulnerable than adults to the health effects of perchlorate exposure.
The level of perchlorate found in breast milk in this study suggests a serious threat to the normal development and health of potentially all American infants.
EPA must adopt a maximum contaminant level for perchlorate in drinking water based on the most recent science, including the 2006 CDC study and the Boston study described above. The 2006 CDC study showed convincingly, with statistically valid data from a large human population, that perchlorate levels well below the EPA's "safe" dose cause significant thyroid hormone depression in adult women of childbearing age.
With the CDC study showing that even less than 1 ppb perchlorate in water may pose health risks to women, fully protective drinking water standards must be set as low as possible—at no more than 1 ppb—and revised downward as detection and cleanup technology improves. The Food and Drug Administration must also adopt an action level for perchlorate in food that is designed to protect the fetus, infants and children from the adverse effects of these exposures.

Bank Of Scotland Unveils Two New 20 Polymer Note Designs
Bank of Scotland unveils two new £20 polymer note designs
New £20 Polymer note retains Sir Walter Scott and The Mound in Edinburgh, as well as the Forth Bridge.
Commemorative note will be launched celebrating the Queensferry Crossing.
Michael Matheson, Cabinet Secretary for Transport, Infrastructure and Connectivity, is quoted.
Bank of Scotland has today unveiled the design of its new Polymer £20 note which will enter circulation early in the new-year.
The front of the note will continue to feature the portrait of the Scottish novelist and poet, Sir Walter Scott, alongside the image of The Mound in Edinburgh. The distinctive red Forth Bridge remains on the reverse which was listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in July 2015.
One of the key security features of Bank of Scotland's Polymer notes is the anti-counterfeit 'window effect' which can be found in the windows of The Mound. The £20 Polymer note features a holographic depth stripe, the top of the foil features a Northern Lights effect when tilted, additionally the clouds adjacent to 'Fame' will move left to right when tilted east to west.
Holders of the new £20 polymer note will recognise a new image of the Forth Bridges, with the Queensferry Crossing visible in the background. In celebration of the longest three-tower, cable stayed bridge in the world, the Queensferry Crossing will be celebrated in its own right by featuring on a limited number of commemorative £20 notes. Designed by De La Rue, the commemorative notes will be marked with 'QF & QC' with this pre-fix featuring only on this design.
Sir Walter Scott will remain on the front of the note.
Bank of Scotland has issued bank notes for more than 320 years, showcasing the country's proud history. The Queensferry Crossing is the perfect example of Scottish ingenuity and innovation, and that's why we have decided to commemorate the landmark site on a collection of our £20 Polymer notes.
Tara Foley, Managing Director of Bank of Scotland
Cabinet Secretary for Transport, Infrastructure & Connectivity Michael Matheson said: "It is marvellous to see Bank of Scotland marking the arrival of the record breaking structure over the Firth of Forth, the Queensferry Crossing, in this commemorative £20 note.
"It's a fitting tribute to the ingenuity and endeavour of all of the people involved in the creation of this iconic bridge to have a special edition note dedicated to them."
Measuring 139 x 73 mm compared to the current 149 x 80mm, the two notes are slightly smaller than the existing paper £20 notes in circulation. This size is consistent with the new £20 notes that will be issued by the Bank of England and other UK banks next year.
Like the £10 Polymer note, the £20 note will also introduce the tactile emboss feature to aid the visually impaired.
All existing paper Bank of Scotland £20 notes will be gradually withdrawn following the issue of the new note, but any currently in circulation will continue to be accepted at shops, banks and cash payment machines.

Huntington Municipal Airport to build new hangar
The Huntington City Council voted on August 12, to move forward with a recommendation from the Huntington Municipal Airport Board of Aviation Commissioners (BOAC) to construct a new hangar at the facility. The BOAC recommended the project to relieve existing congestion and to accommodate growth opportunities at the airport.
"At its most elementary level, the BOAC is recommending that we convert a cash asset into a real estate asset and in addition, the BOAC will reimburse the cash account over a 10 year period and the City will retain title to the real estate asset, which creates revenue opportunities in perpetuity," said Mark Wickersham, executive director of the Huntington County Economic Development Corporation and a member of the BOAC as he made a presentation to City Council. No external debt obligations are associated with either the BOAC's or Council's action in the matter. "This is simply a balance sheet adjustment," Wickersham added.
The Fetters Administration has charged the BOAC with the task of better utilizing the airport as a growth engine, not only in and of itself, but to also more aggressively serve as an asset in an economic development sense for the Community. "The unanimous decision on the part of City Council opens the door to significant improvements at the facility," Wickersham concluded.

by	TroyAnderson	March 18, 2015
In celebration of the cinematic vanguard Werner Herzog, 16 of his acclaimed films and documentaries are now available to stream on Shout! Factory TV. Today, eight more films join the previously available Aguirre the Wrath of God, Even Dwarfs Started Small, Ballad of the Little Soldier, Little Dieter Needs to Fly, Heart of Glass, The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser, Nosferatu the Vampyre and Where the Green Ants Dream.
Herzog has taken his camera to parts of the world no other director would dare go, and told stories in ways previously unconsidered. These sixteen masterpieces, which blur the line between "fiction" and "documentary," illustrate why Werner Herzog is the most intrepid, creative, and dangerous filmmaker of our lifetime. A visionary creator unlike any other, with a passion for unveiling truths about nature and existence by blurring the line between reality and fiction, Werner Herzog is undoubtedly one of cinema's most controversial and enigmatic figures. Audiences the world over have marveled at his uniquely moving, often disturbing, but always awe-inspiring stories, and his ever-growing body of work has inspired an untold number of filmmakers. He is, and continues to be, the most daring filmmaker of our time.

HERZOG FILMS AVAILABLE TODAY ON SHOUT! FACTORY TV
The film portrays the Herculean efforts of an Irish, would-be robber baron determined to reach a territory rich in rubber resources deep in the forests of Peru by transporting an entire steamship over a mountain. Herzog developed the script from the historic events of Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald, whose name was unpronounceable to the natives who instead called him, "Fitzcarraldo." However, the real story of this endeavor is not the movie's plot, but Herzog's own Herculean effort to put the story to film.
While special effects would have been most directors' choice to portray the struggle of hauling a 360-ton boat up a muddy 40-degree slope, Herzog wouldn't have it. He was going to do it for real. The route over the mountain intended for the boat covered more than a mile, the gradient of the hill starting at 60% before leveling down to 40%. Despite warnings from engineers and native film technicians that it was just too dangerous, Herzog set out against all odds and managed to make the miracle happen, eventually leading him to dub himself, "Conquistador of the Useless." The dangerous production became the subject of a documentary titled, Burden of Dreams, a fascinating look at Herzog's process from the front lines.
Ultimately, Herzog's struggles paid off. The film won the German Film Prize in Silver for Best Feature Film, and was nominated for the BAFTA Award for Best Foreign Film, the Palme d'Or award of the Cannes Film Festival, and the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Herzog himself won the award for Best Director at the 1982 Cannes Film Festival. The film was even selected as the West German entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 55th Academy Awards®, but was not accepted as a nominee.
Cobra Verde
Reuniting with his longtime leading man, Klaus Kinski, Herzog next turned his creative vision to a screen adaptation of Bruce Chatwin's 1980 novel, The Viceroy of Ouidah. Cobra Verde tells the story of a Brazilian rancher-turned-outlaw who roams the countryside, until a wealthy sugar baron hires him to supervise the plantation's slaves, but when the baron's three daughters all end up pregnant by Cobra, the baron sends him to Africa to negotiate the prohibited slave trade.
My Best Fiend
The above quote tells a great deal about the decades-long relationship between Herzog and his most recurring leading man, Klaus Kinksi. So does the fact that the duo collaborated on five films, while no other director ever worked with Kinski more than once. It's been said of the pair that Kinski represented unrestrained passion, and Herzog the cool-headed logic that kept him on track. Their friendship was volatile, their fights legendary, and My Best Fiend is an engrossing look at one of cinema's most intriguing partnerships.
As Herzog delves into his history with Kinski in colorful and wonderfully entertaining detail, from the flat Kinski once shared with Herzog's family to their misadventures on the various productions through the years, what makes the story so compelling is discovering how these two powerhouse figures in cinematic history both thrived on one another and at the same time remained at each other's throats throughout their professional alliance.
Screened out of competition at the 1999 Cannes Film Festival, the documentary was an instant classic. Critics lauded the film, calling it "captivating" and "unforgettable." Roger Ebert, perhaps, summed it best of all: "As a meditation by a director on an actor, it is unique; most show-biz docs involve the ritual exchange of compliments. My Best Fiend is about two men who both wanted to be dominant, who both had all the answers, who were inseparably bound together in love and hate, and who created extraordinary work – while all the time each resented the other's contribution."
Considered by many to be the quintessential masterpiece of Herzog's early works, this film can best be described as an expressionist documentary. Consisting of three distinct parts, Fata Morgana — the apt title of which is the name of a type of mirage formed at the horizon — is an absorbing collection of images combined with poetic voiceover and music to create an ethereal viewing experience of an alien world that is actually our own. Non-narrative and compiled from footage shot over the span of two years, the film remains one of Herzog's most identifiable works and an ingenious journey of discovery.
Amazingly, this haunting masterpiece wasn't planned to be anything like the final film it became. According to Herzog, he first intended the film as a science-fiction piece, complete with a narrative story of a dying world called "Uxmal" and set against strange locations in the Sahara Desert, Kenya and the Canary Islands. When the storyline was later removed, only the vast landscapes and titular mirages were left, evoking a sense of strangeness. Herzog still describes Fata Morgana as a science-fiction film, however, with "windows into a different world…and all the buildings are taken away and only…the vision is left, and that's what you see here: a mirage."
Land of Silence and Darkness
The film follows Fini Straubinger, a woman who lost her hearing and sight as she travels to visit others without those two senses. Through her interactions and the incredible stories of the people she meets, Herzog provides the audience with a hypnotizing experience and a newfound appreciation of how communication touches our lives every day.
While many directors might have taken a scientific approach to the topic, Herzog instead focuses on the humanity of the film's subjects and the emotion of their stories. He devised a specific set of guidelines for the production to follow which stripped away anything from the audio and visuals that would create a disconnect from their world. The camerawork was of critical importance in achieving this goal. Knowing a traditional tripod would create a look too static and removed, Herzog prohibited its use throughout filming, and also advised cinematographer Jörg Schmidt-Reitwein not to use zooms, but instead, physically move through crowds using his whole body. Utilizing this natural movement of the camera, Herzog created a beautiful, sensory experience that had rarely been seen on the screen before.
The film was a moving tribute to Fini and the deaf-blind community, allowing the world to better grasp the immense isolation of these individuals and doing so in a way that fostered respect and admiration. Herzog himself has said this film is particularly close to his heart, even going so far as to say, "I think the work we did on that film is some of the best I have ever done," and adds, "of all my films, this is the one I want to be available to audiences the most."
As the effects of the Gulf War raged across Kuwait in the early 1990s, Herzog's passion for taking audiences to alien landscapes and presenting them with bizarre spectacle drew his directorial eye toward the flames. Lessons Of Darkness is a non-narrative documentary highlighting the horrors brought upon the people and countryside in the wake of the war.
Using telephoto lenses, helicopter shots and truck-mounted cameras, Herzog manages to capture the emotion of the spectacle without ever giving his audience any establishing shots that clearly show where they are. As he says, "the film has not a single frame that can be recognized as our planet, and yet we know it must have been shot here." With sparse, almost poetic commentary provided by Herzog himself which never seeks to explain the reasons for these images existing, but only observe what's being seen in the moment, the film becomes an apocalyptic look into an otherworldly circumstance.
Critics and audiences were taken by the film's ethereal tone and shocking imagery from the moment it was released. The film won the Grand Prix Award at the Melbourne International Film Festival.
Stroszek
Herzog's second and last collaboration with leading man Bruno S. took the pair from their homeland of Germany across the Atlantic to rural Wisconsin on a journey of self-discovery and new beginnings. Herzog wrote the screenplay for the film in just four days, and created the lead character specifically for Bruno S., whose own personal history helped inform a good deal of the character's mental state and background.
Filmed mostly in Plainfield, Wisconsin (its name changed to the fictitious "Railroad Flats" in the film), the story follows the titular character, a prostitute named Eva and an elderly man named Scheitz as they flee Germany for what they believe will be the promised land. While the events of the film make it a road movie of sorts, it's the relationship between these three characters as well as Stroszek's unique perspective on the world around him that make the film classic Herzog.
Released in 1977, the film met with critical acclaim the world over.
Woyzeck tells the story of a real life 19th-century barber-turned-soldier named Johann Christian Woyzeck, who was executed after mysteriously killing the woman he loved. Based on an unfinished stage play by German playwright Georg Buchner in 1836, Herzog's script follows the path of Woyzeck as he endures military experiments in a lab which ultimately turn him into a killing machine. The script deftly stitches together the plot from scenes Buchner crafted, although it's impossible to know what order those scenes were originally meant to follow. However Buchner intended the story to go, in Herzog's hands it became a masterpiece of human emotion and psychological struggle.
For the lead role of the film, Herzog initially intended to use Bruno S., but after completing the script, he realized there was only one man capable of portraying such hopeless madness—Klaus Kinski. Knowing full well that Kinski was exhausted after filming Nosferatu the Vampyre, which had only just finished shooting, Herzog thrust his leading man into the new role right away so the exhaustion would add extra layers to Kinski's performance. Filming on Woyzeck began just five days after Nosferatu wrapped. Throughout the production, Herzog utilized a hands-off approach to directing, allowing his performers to take the reins on how their portrayals of these tragic characters would unfold. This decision gave his actors the freedom they needed to fully embrace the emotions of the story and led to some of the strongest performances in any of his films.
Upon its release in 1979, Woyzeck was met with critical acclaim for the incredible performances of the unleashed actors. Werner's leading lady, Eva Mattes, won the Best Supporting Actress award at the Cannes Film Festival, and Kinski received many high marks for his inspired turn as the soldier-turned-killer. Werner was nominated for the Golden Palm, and two years later in 1981, the film would be awarded the Silver Guild Film Award from the Guild of German Art House Cinemas.

The Village of Altamont, located within the Town of Guilderland in Albany County, encompasses just over 1 square mile. The 2010 US Census reported 1,720 inhabitants.
Altamont is located directly below the Helderberg Escarpment near New York State Thatcher Park. In the early 1630s, the area was part of lands granted to Killian Van Rensselaer by the Dutch West India Company and became known as the Hellerburgh in the early 1700s.
The hamlet of Knowersville was established in the early 1800s. After the first passenger train passed through Altamont in 1863, the Albany and Susquehanna Railroad Company erected a permanent depot and the center of business and travel moved slightly west to the area where the depot was built. The building served as both passenger and freight station. The station agents were enterprising businessmen who sold building materials, feed and coal from the depot. The post office was moved from the home of Jacob Crouse in Knowersville and located in the depot with Henry Hawkins as the station agent and postmaster. The railroad company moved the old structure further down the tracks and built a new building in 1896-97.
The Village of Altamont incorporated in 1890. Summer visitors used the railroad to visit Altamont Hotels and lakeside boarding houses on the mountain and the business district blossomed. Village infrastructure was established and many homes were built.
The last passenger train passed through Altamont on January 24, 1963 after a century of service. Presently, Altamont Free Library owns the historic train station, which is, along with a number of homes along Main Street listed on the Registry of Historical Buildings.
The Village's Central Business District is a quaint, tree-lined commercial area offering charming shops, restaurants and convenient services. With wide sidewalks, free parking and period street lighting, the area offers residents and guests a chance to step back and enjoy the beautiful parks and natural backdrop of the Helderberg Mountains.

Kettering girl, 17, who died in road collision was killed by careless driver, court hears
Meredita Kelmelyte went into cardiac arrest and died at the scene

An inexperienced teenage driver who killed a 17-year-old girl has been jailed for careless driving.
Meredita Kelmelyte who has been described as strong willed and empathetic by her mum, was one of three passengers in the Vauxhall Corsa when it was involved in a collision.
Joe Plimmer, 19, was driving the car when he failed to negotiate a bend as he followed a sports car the group had admired as they visited a Kettering fast food restaurant.
Meredita, who wasn't wearing a seatbelt at the time, suffered a serious head injury, went into cardiac arrest and died at the scene.
The incident happened around 9pm on April 18 last year, just four months after Plimmer passed his driving test.

Now the new driver has been sentenced at Northampton Crown Court (Tuesday July 30) after pleading guilty to causing death by careless driving.
The court heard how data recorded in Plimmer's car logged a final speed of 63mph before the vehicle left the road and hit a tree.
An investigation of the scene after the incident concluded that the maximum speed the bend could be safely negotiated at is 47mph.
The court was also read a victim impact statement from Meredita's mother, in which she spoke of her love for her eldest daughter, describing her as empathetic, strong willed and a dedicated student.
The statement said: "I miss her dearly. I miss our late-night girly chats, our laughs together, our arguments, our never-ending shopping trips, our coffee breaks. She was my strength and my weakness.
"I see her in everything that is beautiful – the sun, rain, clouds, wind. There are no words to describe how much I miss her."
What the judge said
Sentencing, Judge Adrienne Lucking said: "The sentence I pass today cannot heal the grief experienced by Mrs Kelmelyte and other members of her family, nor their heartbreak at a young life cut short in these terrible circumstances.
"On that night your driving fell not far short of dangerous driving."
Judge Lucking acknowledged that Plimmer had shown genuine remorse and courage by meeting Meredita's family on what would've been the first day of his trail last month.
Plimmer, of Keats Way, Rushden, was sentenced to nine months in a young offenders' institution.
When he is released he will be subject to licence and supervision requirements for a further 12 months.

He was also disqualified from driving for two years, plus a further five months to account for the time he will spend in custody, and will have to take an extended retest in order to regain his licence.
Speaking after the hearing, investigating officer Detective Constable Rae Pegg for Northamptonshire Police said: "This was a tragic incident which cost a talented, intelligent and much-loved young woman her life.
"Meredita's family will never get to celebrate all she would have gone on to achieve, and will spend the rest of their lives missing her.
"Throughout this case they have shown nothing but dignity and courage, and although there can be no winners in circumstances like this I hope its conclusion brings them some small comfort."


The model of gem Q-switch has been adopted in the machine. The pigmentation in the lesion tissues could be effectively broken up into pieces and removed by taking advantage of the high energy immediately irradiated by LASER, which is the explosion principle. One part of the pigment (inside the chromophore) will split into tiny granules that can be engulfed by phagocytes of the body. After the digestion of phagocytes it can be excluded from the lymphatic system of the body. The pigment of the injured tissues gradually becomes shallow until it disappears, while no injured trace will be left on the peripheral normal tissues, for they will not absorb the laser of the fixed wavelength.

Q: Ratio of workloads in the 2 projects The ratio of the numbers of the workers in teams of X and Y is 3:4, and the ratio of the working efficiencies for the workers in teams X and Y is 5:4. Both teams do the projects in which the workload and the conditions are identical. However, Y finishes the project 9 days earlier than X. Later, two new teams are composed. M consists of *2/3*of the workers in X and 1/3 of the workers in Y, and N consist of the rest of workers in both X and Y. Both teams (M and N) do the projects in which the work load and the conditions are identical. However, N finishes the project six days earlier than M. What is the ratio of the workloads in the two projects
I am having trouble answering this question, and I don't have any work to show. Hints or solution is welcome. Thank you very much.

A: Let the total number of workers be W
Number of workers in X = 3/7 W
Number of workers in Y = 4/7 W
Let the efficiency of a worker in X be E units of work per day
Efficiency of a worker in Y = 4/5 E
Let t days be taken by Y to complete the project and t+9 be taken by X
Since workloads is the same in both projects undertaken by X and Y,
{Number of workers x Efficiency of a worker x Time in days} is the same for both X and Y
Equation 1:
3/7 W E (t+9) = 4/7 W 4/5 E t
After the new teams M and N are formed, we can assume that the efficiency of each worker remains the same in the newly formed teams also.
For the newly assigned projects to M and N, let us assume that N completes the work in t' days. M completes it in (t' + 6) days
Since the workloads for the newly assigned projects to M and N are the same, we have:
Equation 2: {2/3 (3/7 W E) + 1/3 (4/7 W 4/5 E)} (t'+6) = {1/3 (3/7 W E) + 2/3 (4/7 W 4/5 E)} t'
You can solve Equation 1 to find t. You can solve equation 2 to find t'
Ratio of the workload in the two projects = [3/7 W E (t+9)] / [{2/3 (3/7 W E) + 1/3 (4/7 W 4/5 E)} (t'+6)]
Since t and t' are known and W and E can be cancelled, you can then calculate this ratio.

Church of England Schools Stir Controversy for Allowing Islamic Hijab Uniforms for Girls
CP Current Page: World | Monday, September 04, 2017 | Coronavirus →
By Stoyan Zaimov, Christian Post Reporter Follow | Monday, September 04, 2017

A U.K. survey has revealed that Church of England schools are part of thousands of others that are allowing Muslim girls to wear the hijab as part of their school uniform.
Children's rights campaigners, however, such as Gina Khan of One Law for All, have warned that the hijab is not being allowed for the right reasons.
"Schools are allowing it because they are afraid of being called Islamophobic and they have been told that this is a religious garment — but they need to support Muslim girls to have free choices, not to be set apart from other children," Khan said, according to The Sunday Times.
The Sunday Times conducted a survey which found that a fifth, or 18 percent of 800 primary schools, including those run by the Church of England, have the hijab as part of their uniform policy.
"Across England's 17,000 primary schools the figure is likely to run into thousands," the report noted.
The Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills said that there is "growing concern" that parents or religious leaders are influencing such change in uniform policy.
"While it is for schools to determine their uniform rules in accordance with the law, there is growing concern about the hijab appearing in a primary school uniform list. We are looking at whether there is evidence that schools are facing external pressure to adapt their policies," Ofsted reportedly said.
Lord Carey, the former archbishop of Canterbury, called for the wearing of the hijab to be "fiercely resisted."
"Personally, I am against the wearing of hijabs altogether. I believe we are in a secular western country largely influenced by the Christian faith," Carey declared.
Michael Nazir-Ali, former bishop of Rochester, commented: "I see no necessity to have a hijab listed within a school uniform policy. If there are difficulties, they can be negotiated on a case-by-case basis between parents and schools. By including it in a policy, parents may come under pressure from religious leaders — who might say you are not a good Muslim if you do not do it."
Toby Howarth, bishop of Bradford, explained that including the hijab is appropriate within Church of England primary uniform policy.
"The British policy is not to make too big a deal of it, but simply to say you have to wear the right color. This is a matter of religious identity not sexualization," he said, referring to Muslim critics who say the hijab is meant to be worn during puberty, not at such an early age.
Christian schools in the U.K. are, meanwhile, facing the prospect of ensuring that half of their students come from different faith backgrounds, reports from July suggested.
While Tory ministers had promised in their election manifesto to scrap plans on school caps, they reversed course following concerns that Christian-only schools "heighten community divisions."
A spokeswoman for the Catholic Education Service told The Sunday Times that the Roman Catholic Church may have to hold off on plans to open free schools if such a policy is implemented.
"We cannot open any free schools if the 50 percent admission cap remains. We have not opened any since 2010 even though there is huge demand for Catholic education in some regions," the spokeswoman said at the time.

'Military intervention is not an alternative to civilian regime performance, no matter how abysmal' – Prof. Oquaye
Prof Aaron Mike Oquaye
Thu, 10 Mar 2022 Source: www.ghanaweb.com
Former Speaker of Parliament comments on recent coup discourse
Prof Oquaye says there is no need for that conversation
He cautions about the damage military juntas unleash in society in general
Former Speaker of Parliament, Prof Aaron Mike Oquaye has added his voice to the recent discourse on military takeovers in the political and civil society space.
According to him, there was no need for such conversations especially at a time Ghana continued to incrementally build and bind its democratic credentials since the birth of the Fourth Republic.
His views were contained in an article published in the media, in which he spells out his motivation to comment on the issue.
"This writer feels compelled to write this piece, being a student of the military in politics – a task I set myself to for decades."
He cautioned about the many downsides of military interventions stating that the best junta was no where near the worst democratic government because of the excesses that come with the latter's dabbling in political governance.
"Categorically speaking, military intervention is NOT an alternative to civilian regime performance, no matter how abysmal.
"The democratic determination of political preference after political mandate has been given to a political party is by one mechanism ONLY – the Ballot. A nation is either democratic and abides by this practice or it is unfit to be counted among the comity of civilised nations. You cannot serve God and mammon.
"You cannot have a Constitution adopted by the people and yet any time a section of the populace disagrees with policies being pursued, a coup or military take-over occurs," he stressed.
He cited several instances in recent history where under the Jerry John Rawlings-led AFRC and PNDC juntas, several excesses were recorded and yet remain unresolved till date.
Prof Atuguba's coup comment triggers wide debate
Prof Raymond Atuguba - Dean of the School of Law at the University of Ghana - in a recent lecture averred that Ghana maybe rife for a coup considering the prevailing economic challenges.
He stated that certain conditions for a successful coup to be staged such as a broke economy were already in place. He advised the government to immediately begin addressing such eminent threats before it escalates.
"We do not want a coup in this country yet I fear that if we do not act quickly, we may have one on our hands very soon. A former colleague doctoral Ph.D. student wrote his dissertation also on Ghana.
"He now teaches at a War College in the US. Whiles my topic was on the Ghana Police, his topic was on the Ghana military.
"Naturally, our paths intersected and we have remained friends since. My friend's Ph.D. thesis was on the topic 'Why certain coup succeed and why others fail'. His case study was Ghana.
"My current assessment that Ghana may be ripe for a coup partly springs from the knowledge I gained from accompanying my friend through part of his doctoral research on this topic."
Since his comment, there have been growing calls for his arrest.

Companies can get into serious trouble if they don't provide a (working) way to honor recipients' requests for removal.
Today, I got a couple of emails from a textbook company. These messages had been coming with regularity every few days, and although I know the company, these particular messages are outside my area of interest. Tired of getting irrelevant messages, I scrolled to the bottom of the page and found the "unsubscribe" link. Upon clicking the link, my browser immediately sprang into action. But instead of getting the expected "We're sorry to see you go" text on the page, I instead got a message saying, "This site can't be reached" and cited a DNS error.
I tried several times, each time getting the same response (none). After my initial irritation, I just changed my email settings to mark future messages from the company as spam. Since I'm familiar with this particular company, I chalked it up to somebody not doing their job with checking to make sure the links actually work, as opposed to an intentional act of deception.
If you're one of the world's 3.7 billion email users (according to the Radicati Group), you probably get messages every day you don't want. That's part of doing everyday business, and most users just delete unwanted messages, send them to the "spam" folder or report them to the service provider. But companies can get into serious trouble if they don't provide a (working) way to honor recipients' requests for removal.
The CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 governs how companies handle commercial email solicitations. The Federal Trade Commission holds the primary responsibility of enforcing the act, as well as administering fines for violations (which can penalize businesses thousands of dollars for each separate violation of the act). Specifically, CAN-SPAM requires that businesses avoid using false or misleading headers or subject lines, failing to disclose a message is trying to sell something and avoiding telling people where to find your company. But the most well-known portions of CAN-SPAM have to do with handling requests to be removed from mailing lists.
In addition, requests have to be clear and conspicuous, and although you may direct users to a page where they can select their preferences, it must include an option to opt out of receiving any more messages from you. Requests must be handled promptly, and be honored within 10 business days. And once you're notified, you can't "sell or transfer" their email addresses to another entity (unless you can show you're hiring the other company to help with compliance with the law.
Computer security experts often get asked whether it really does any good (or whether it's risky) to click "unsubscribe" links. Most experts agree that law-abiding companies who care about their reputations are going to comply. However, it's also clear that much email traffic is unsolicited (spam) email that tries to hook you with scams and ripoffs, or those who want you to click a web link so they can steal your identity or install malware on your computer. Such entities aren't likely to honor your requests to be removed, and clicking their links may actually make you get more spam.
Bottom line: exercise caution in clicking on any links in an unsolicited email, or opening it at all. If in doubt, just delete it, especially if it comes with an attachment. If they send you messages frequently, report it as spam to your Internet Service Provider, and use your email client's rules feature to snare them before they even reach your inbox. After all, the best unwanted message is the one you never see.

Destination Highlight - Francistown
Air Botswana's principal domestic route is between Gaborone and Francistown, Botswana's second city and 'Capital of the North'. This busy commercial, industrial and transport hub is one of the oldest urban settlements in the country
established during the gold rush of the late nineteenth century and named after pioneer prospector Daniel Francis. The present town was founded in 1897, by the Bakalanga as a settlement near the Monarch mine and named after Daniel Francis, an English prospector from Liverpool who acquired prospecting licences in the region in 1869. Francis was a director of the Tati Land Concessions Land (Tati Concessions Company), which acquired the land from Chief Lobengula. The centre of the new town was formed when the company sold off 300 lots in August of that year. The Monarch mine was not the only mine in operation at that time, and it was widely believed that Francistown would grow rapidly.

You are here: Home>Crimes and Incidents>Drunkenness>Morse, but no remorse: she struck again
Hertfordshire Mercury, 24th June 1916
Annie Burrows, 32, of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty at Hatfield Petty Sessions to being drunk at New Town, Hatfield, on 12th June, by smashing the window of the White Lion Public House, and to doing damage to a police cell.
P.C. Morse stated that whilst on duty in New Town he had heard some glass being smashed at the White Lion Public House and, on getting there, he had seen the defendant being evicted. He took her into custody and, whilst in the cell, she had broken the window, the cell bucket, and the bed. The prisoner confirmed this to be correct.
George Blakeley, the landlord of the White Lion, said that he had seen the prisoner in the bar and that, when she had attempted to lift her glass, he had seen that she had clearly had sufficient to drink. He turned her out of the premises, whereupon she proceeded to smash one of the windows.
Supt Peck advised the Bench that there were 14 previous convictions against the defendant, mostly for drunkenness in London. He went on to say that he had seen many men smash cell windows, but had never seen so much damage as that caused by this woman. He produced the iron framework of the window which was broken and twisted into all sorts of shapes, showing that very considerable violence must have been used.
The Bench sentenced the woman to two months' hard labour.

Papa Roach and Therapy? to play at "Rock the City" fest
April 6, 2011 163
Bands Papa Roach, Hatebreed, Therapy?, Sabaton and Boom are among the latest acts that confirmed their appearance at the "Rock the City" Festival July 1-3, producer and agent Marcel Avram told a press conference. He also made public his intention for this year's "Rock the City" to include 4-5 concerts a day, with those by Prodigy and Therapy?, Friday, July 1, Mike and The Mechanics and Papa Roach, Saturday, July 2, and Judas Priest, Whitesnake and Hatebreed, Sunday, July 3rd, scheduled already.
Denise Sandulescu, general manager at D&D East Entertainment, the festival's organizer, announced Romexpo, and not the Constitution Square, as originally intended, being the location for the event, given "it being better suited for entertainment purposes". She also told Mediafax that the festival will have a budget in excess of EUR 1 M.
Lenti Chiriac, production manager D&D East Entertainment said that deals have been signed with three Romanian bands that, while very popular, are among the acts seldom seen on festival bills, and five more foreign bands will perform in the event. "Last year, we had Sonisphere, this year, they had second thoughts about participating, given their being the opening act for Iran Maiden, who played in Cluj last year," Marcel Avram explained, who also referred to "Rock the City" overlapping the Emagic-organised B'festival time wise. "On the internet, it has been known since November that Judas Priest and Whitesnake are coming to Romania, July 3rd. Knowing that, you don't bill Skunk Anansie, for example, who are to perform there, on the same day. (…) I won't accuse anybody, yet, such things shouldn't be done among colleagues," a discontented Avram said.
Eventim official Valentin Vasiloiu announced festival tickets and passes will be sold at discount prices by April 15. As of April 5, tickets for the 2011 "Rock the City" Festival are available for purchase through the Eventim chain, online, at www.eventim.ro, and at partner stores.
California-based band Papa Roach, who sold over 10 M records worldwide and are best known for hits such as "Last resort", "She Loves Me Not", "Scars", Forever" and "Lifeline", put out their latest album – "Time for Annihilation" – on Aug. 31, 2010, from which they will perform a number of songs live at "Rock the City". Founded in 1994, the band has so far released six studio albums and played on tours with bands including Slayer, Deftones, Entombed and Napalm Death.
Among the releases by Hatebreed, another band that confirmed their appearance at the festival, an eponymous album in 2009, "Supremacy" (2006) and "Perseverance" (2002). Therapy? Is an alternative rock band from Northern Ireland who have so far released 15 albums and numerous singles. The band sold 2 million records worldwide. Sabaton are a Swedish power metal band formed in 1999, whose songs are rooted in lyrical themes inspired by wars of the past. The band has so far launched seven albums, among them, "Coat of Arms", released in 2010.

Since our arrival, my wife and I have felt nothing but welcomed and a bit overwhelmed by the graciousness of many people who have gone out of their way to make us feel comfortable in our new hometown. In just a short period of time I have heard many people's stories of moving here thinking it was a short stop and instead staying to raise their children and engage in the community.
I have found many great things to be thankful for as Superintendent of our district. Among them: a safe community that has rich traditions and culture, amazing support of our schools by both benevolent individuals and organizations including the Education Foundation of Pendleton, Pendleton Foundation, Altrusa, Rotary, Umatilla County, Buck Boosters, CHI St. Anthony Hospital, Wildhorse Resort and Casino, OREA (Oregon Retired Educators Association) and the Chamber of Commerce, to name just a few. Each of the aforementioned and others donate hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to our students and staff for classroom enrichment opportunities as well as extended services for those in need.
Please enjoy the spirit of the season and accept my heartfelt thanks for living in such a wonderful community. I look forward to challenges and opportunities that lay before us and know together we can build on the good work that we have accomplished to date.
For many of us the holiday season is a special time to engage in our religious celebrations and be with our loved ones. However, in our community we have an increasing number of families who, due to economic circumstances, cannot afford to participate in many of the things that we take for granted. For many, this time of year is not one of joy and celebration, but one of sorrow and a reminder of what they have lost or never had.
Our schools are more than a place to be educated, they also serve as safe havens for many children, places where they can and do interact with positive and stable adults; places where there are consistent rules and routines that provide a sense of order and safety. For many of these students, time out of school creates anxiety because of the lack of stability and safety that our public schools provide. During the holidays, I ask that we take some time to remind ourselves and our children of these points.

Box Office: 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Zooms To Huge $32M Opening Day In China
Scott MendelsonForbes Staff
I cover the film industry.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens has earned an estimated solid $32.1 million in its first day of play in China, with final figures going as high as $33m for its opening Saturday. For reference, that's one of the biggest single-day grosses of all time in what is now the second biggest movie-going marketplace. It is just ahead of the $27m opening day of Paramount/ Viacom Inc.'s Terminator: Genisys and the $30m opening day of Paramount's Transformers: Age of Extinction. It is, as of this writing, behind merely the $33.9m opening day of Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron, and the $63m opening day of Universal/ Comcast Corp.'s Furious 7. Of course, it's possible that the final numbers may bump it above that Avengers 2 number (and as of 9:30am Disney is guestimating a $33m opening day), but that's an if/when conversation for tomorrow. Obviously the next Star Wars film needs to be called Star Wars: The Age Of The Furious Jedi. Or they could just call it Star Wars: Monster Hunt 2.
For further reference, Jurassic World earned $17.7m on its opening day towards an eventual $228m cume. Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation earned $18m on its first day, a record for a 2D release, and eventually earned $136m. Spectre snagged a $15m opening day late last year for an eventual $83m cume. And, of course, the sky-high Terminator Genisys opening day figure led to a massively front-loaded $112m cume in China. Like Terminator, The Force Awakens opens after an extended blackout period on Hollywood exports, which may mean that the figure is somewhat inflated in terms of long term prospects.
But even if it plays like Terminator Genisys, it still gets to $132m, or about what Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation pulled in last year off an $18m opening day. For reference, Transformers: Age of Extinction earned a second-best $320 million cume in China while Avengers: Age of Ultron earned $240m. Furious 7 holds the record for a US import, with a $390m gross in China. Opening weekend comparisons are tricky because films tend to open on any old day of the calendar. But this opening day is especially impressive that the Star Wars franchise is not remotely as much of a cultural item in China (or really much of the world) as it is in America. Walt Disney has a big interest in making sure the Chinese moviegoers get addicted to Star Wars as well.
Their marketing antics have included sending storm troopers to the Great Wall of China for a photo op back in October, making a music video called "The Force Inside" with Lu Han, a performer sometimes called "the Justin Bieber of China," and snagging a deal to allow all six prior Star Wars films to be streamed in China. For the record, Disney isn't expecting China to go nutso for Star Wars to record-levels anymore than Freestyle is expecting to break box office records with their domestic release of Monster Hunt later this month (if you can't tell, I'm really looking forward to that one). That's an extreme example, but you get the idea.
But a successful introduction will ensnare older fans and new fans for the next "episode" or two, which is the long-term goal. So no, The Force Awakens shouldn't be expected to break any records in China just yet, but this initial installment is about establishing brand awareness and hopefully audience approval. As if it needs to be said, we shall watch this one's trajectory with great interest.

Several White House Staff members have tested positive for the coronavirus a day after the signing of a historic Middle East peace treaty at the White House.
Chief of Staff Mark Meadows refused to answer questions about the positive test results Wednesday.
"I don't comment on any health-related issues as it relates to the White House ever," Meadows told Globo News reporter Raquel Krahenbuhl.
Yesterday, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, United Arab Emirates Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al-Nahyan, and Bahrain Foreign Minister Abdullatif al-Zayani gathered at the White House to sign the Abraham Accords, the agreement to establish peace between the Jewish State and two of the Arab Gulf states.
Hundreds of people attended the signing ceremony. In addition, dozens of anti-Israel protesters gathered outside the White House to protest the signing of the peace treaty.

Charter says it doesn't want to merge with Sprint
Catherine Shu	@catherineshu / 3 years
Charter Communications says it has "no interest" in merging with Sprint, after the Wall Street Journal reported that Sprint had proposed a deal. The proposed merger would have combined Sprint and Charter into a new publicly traded entity controlled by SoftBank, which currently controls a majority stake in Sprint.
If it had come to fruition, the deal may have given Sprint more leverage in its ongoing merger discussions with T-Mobile. In an email to WSJ, however, Charter spokesman Alex Dudley said that Charter would hang onto its current mobile virtual network operator deal with Sprint rival Verizon.
"We understand why a deal is attractive for SoftBank, but Charter has no interest in acquiring Sprint. We have a very good MVNO relationship with Verizon and intend to launch cable customers next year," Dudley wrote. (Disclosure: Verizon owns Oath, which in turn owns TechCrunch).
As one of the largest cable companies in the U.S., Charter is in demand as an acquisition target by telecom companies. Earlier this year it also reportedly turned down an offer from Verizon. TechCrunch has contacted Charter and Sprint for comment.


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States has told its ally South Korea it should not improve ties with North Korea faster than Pyongyang takes steps to give up its nuclear weapons, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Tuesday.
"We have made clear to the Republic of Korea that we do want to make sure that peace on the peninsula and the denuclearisation of North Korea aren't lagging behind the increase in the amount of inter-relationship between the two Koreas," he told a news briefing.
The working group is headed by South Korea's special representative for Korean Peninsula peace and security affairs, Lee Do-hoon, and Stephen Biegun, the U.S. special representative for North Korea.
Pompeo said he believed there was "complete agreement" on how to proceed.
Last month, in a rare sign of discord between Seoul and Washington, South Korean Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha said Pompeo had expressed "discontent" at an inter-Korean military pact reached during a summit in September.
At an unprecedented summit in June, U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un agreed to work towards denuclearisation and peace on the Korean peninsula and establish new relations.
But negotiations have since made little headway, with Pyongyang upset by Washington's insistence that international sanctions must remain until it gives up its nuclear weapons.
