1 In 4 Europeans At Risk Of Poverty
As bonds and stocks soar, and Europe's leaders continue to proclaim victory, despite Draghi's downbeat jawboning as EUR surges to growth-crushing levels, it is well known that the employment situation remains abysmal in the real economy.
However, what is worse that the red-flashing-headlines of record youth (and total) unemployment is, as Bloomberg's Niraj Shah notes, 125 million people in the EU were at risk of pverty or social exclusion. According to Eurostat, that is 24.8% of the population. Almost half of Bulgarians faced economic hardship and Greece had the highest poverty rate in the euro area at 34.6% (though if Stournaras was to be believed this weekend, their problems are solved).

The NFL's Role In the Coming Martial Law
Whatever happened to just playing football? When I used to watch an NFL game on television, I only wanted to watch the game. I never appreciated listening to their liberal political agenda often being spewed out by their talking heads such as Bob Costas.
The NFL and Its Globalist Agenda
The NFL now represents the antithesis of everything that comprises the backbone of traditional American values. I love the game of football. Football was one of the sports that I grew up playing and I later coached the sport as a former head coach in the high school ranks prior to moving to coach college basketball. I thoroughly enjoyed the competition at every level both as a player and a coach. However, the NFL has taken all the fun out of the game, because the league spouts the mantra of the globalist forces which seeks to enslave us.
The NFL Is An Extension of the TSA
Invasive NFL security. What's the difference?
The NFL has decided it is not enough for Americans to be abused by the TSA at the airport, the NFL has become the newest version of the TSA.
Invasive TSA security.
TSA perverted pat down.
This past November, as I have done so many times before, I was planning to drive my family from Arizona to San Diego to watch my favorite sports team, the Denver Broncos, play the San Diego Chargers. We were also going to turn the event into a mini-vacation.
NFL perverted pat down. What's the difference?
However, I discovered the NFL has become an extension of the TSA. Subsequently, the NFL has rolled out the new DHS "anti-terrorism" security measures at all stadiums.
The Hodges family vacation plans were cancelled. In fact, I have attended my last NFL game under the new Sovietization of the National Football League.
The National Football League has instituted new security rules at all stadiums which bans certain items. Prohibited items include, but are not limited to: purses larger than a clutch bag, coolers, briefcases, backpacks, fanny packs, cinch bags, seat cushions, luggage of any kind, computer bags and camera bags or any bag larger than the permissible size." And, they have granted themselves the "right" to touch you anywhere, in their enhanced pat downs from the ankles and above. Welcome to Police State America, NFL style.
NFL perverted pat down.
The People React
In an Arizona Republic newspaper article (8/18/2013, B1, B6), people weighed in on the new NFL policies.
Sue Kish, 48, while attending an Arizona Cardinals game, found that she and her two daughters were told that their clear plastic container, designed to replace her banned purse, was too large and she would have to return her belongings to her car. Kish proceeded back to her car with her two daughters in tow. All three expressed frustration including her daughter, Natalie, as she asked if she had to "…put our tampons in a clear plastic bag? (Az Republic, B1)." Natalie gets it. Some people get it, but most Americans don't, as they continue to tolerate the increasing level of tyranny in this country as evidenced by the following quote made by Heather Gunderson, an Arizona Cardinals season-ticket holder, who was quoted in the Arizona Republic about her response to the new invasive NFL security rules.
"It is kind of a nuisance…but I do understand the rule. It's a whole new world, and you've got to follow the rules and regulations and be safe".
Obviously, Ms. Gunderson never grasped the teachings of Ben Franklin and the folly of trading liberty for security in her high school history class. Henderson is correct about one thing: it is a whole new world, as in the New World Order. The Gunderson quote is typical of our citizen sheep and her views represents why I believe we are losing our country. We have largely lost the ability to think for ourselves. Most of our people fail to appreciate where America is heading. Clearly, our national tyranny meters are turned off. Oh, I know, we have to worry about the terrorists. Since the first casualty on the war on terror has been the Constitution, I think we have pretty much lost that war.
The people that acquiesce to this tyranny would likely tell you that America is the best nation in the world. If you are a sheep, you probably believe the old Bush propaganda when he said "they" hate us because of our freedoms. Really?
The NFL Is An Extension of the DHS and the NSA
The NFL has become your big brother.
In September of 2011, then Secretary of DHS, Janet Napolitano, announced new partnerships between the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) "If You See Something, Say Something" public awareness campaign and several sports organizations as well as various colleges and universities. Partnerships include National Football League (NFL) teams, Major League Baseball (MLB) teams, the U.S. Open Tennis Championships (USTA), Ohio State University and the University of Oklahoma.
Let's make no mistake about it, that this is a citizen spy program which is reminiscent of the same entity implemented by East German Stasi, resulting in the persecution of hundreds of thousands of East German citizens. Should it come as a surprise to anyone since former Stasi chief, Markus Wolf, was paid $5 million dollars to set up DHS?
NFL Uses Taxpayer Money to Promote Obamacare
Despite the fact that Obamacare is "dead on arrival", it has not stopped the administration and the NFL from shamelessly promoting the already failed healthcare system.
Your tax dollars at work.
In a "Sponsorship Agreement" between the Maryland Health Connection and the NFL football team, the Baltimore Ravens, the state of Maryland, with taxpayer money, will pay the 2012 Super Bowl champs $130,000 to shamelessly promote Obamacare on television, radio, the team's official website, in its newsletter and in social media.
The NFL Has Become the New Gun Confiscation Lobby
The new symbol for gun confiscation.
Nice to know that the NFL, the UN, DHS and FEMA are on the same team when it comes to your gun rights.
Who will ever forget as sportscaster and pseudo-intellectual, Bob Costas, used a national football television audience to promote the anti-Second Amendment views of the NFL in reference to a gun control rant Costas made after former Kansas City Chiefs player, Jovan Belcher, was involved in a murder-suicide tragedy. Costas, during halftime of the Kansas City-Denver Broncos game, quoted Fox Sports columnist Jason Whitlock and said, "If Jovan Belcher didn't possess a gun, he and Kasandra Perkins would both be alive today".
It was disgraceful for Costas to use a tragedy on national TV to advance the NFL's anti-gun agenda.
Below is an excerpt from the published NFL advertising list of banned items.
2013 NFL Season
PROHIBITED ADVERTISING CATEGORIES
5. Firearms, ammunition or other weapons; however, stores that sell firearms and ammunition (e.g., outdoor stores and camping stores) will be permitted, provided they sell other products and the ads do not mention firearms, ammunition or other weapon.
Subsequently, we have seen the NFL support the erosion of the Constitution, namely, the First , Second and Fourth Amendments to the Constitution and this is being done at a time when Obama is arming the al-Qaeda backed Syrian rebels. And let's not forget that this same President was arming the Mexican drug cartels by shipping guns into Mexico under Fast and Furious.
The NFL Promises to Participate in America's Coming Dark Days
Seemingly, in the past few months, nearly every American community has been besieged with being the recipient of some form of martial law training in their community. Even our children are not immune to these practices. Every school requires bus evacuation drills from every campus in America. In Operation Mountain Guardian, the children are removed from their campus to a nearby stadium for martial law processing.
Every NFL Stadium Is a FEMA Camp Hiding In Plain Sight
At Giants Stadium, on March 24, 2011, DHS and local law enforcement conducted a "relocation" drill in which civilians were transported to the stadium.
FEMA and the NFL partnering for our safety.
On September 23, 2011, children, without warning, were abducted from their Denver schools by FEMA and taken to the Colorado Sports Authority football stadium. At my son's middle school, we cannot even have my son's aunt pick him unless she is registered with the school and shows identification. Yet, FEMA can literally abduct children from their schools without parental permission or notification? This is outrageous!
The drill went so far as to hire mock parents, trying to simulate a reuniting between the abducted children and "their fictitious" parents (see the DHS recruitment letter written to the Denver Public Schools listed at the bottom of the page). The mock parent would beg DHS personnel to release their children. This was nothing but a desensitization exercise to get Federal personnel to become callous the pleas of would-be parents. Let me take this opportunity to state that drills are done with the expectation that the drill will someday reflect the same circumstances in real life. This drill clearly showed the intent to separate parents and children in times of crisis. Carefully examine the following sign.
This is one of the signs outside of Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City NFL team. Notice the segregation of single females. Can you think of a legitimate reason why stadium authorities would segregate females…..?
At Arrowhead Stadium, home to the NFL Kansas City Chiefs, we see the segregation of women from other fans entering the stadium. Now, why would the officials at Arrowhead Stadium institute such a policy? Simple, they are conditioning the public to accept being separated from one another. What my insider sources tell me is that the future martial law detention camps will consist of men in one camp, women in another and children in a third camp.
FEMA/DHS tipped their hand at Operation Mountain Guardian when they snatched the kids from their elementary schools. I think it is highly likely that children will be taken while at school in order to lure their parents in to the public detention facilities. This also tells you that the coming false flag attacks will take place between noon to 2 pm (Eastern), 9 am to 11 am (Pacific) in order to have all of America's public school students in school in order for DHS/FEMA to control them. The sigh at Arrowhead Stadium demonstrates clear intent that the NFL is working DHS in order to become martial law ready.This also signals that the NFL stadiums are going to be staging areas for martial law. Perceived trouble makers will be lured to their final destination of justice as they try and retrieve their children. I will elaborate more fully on this in the next part of this series.
Here are children being separated from the authority of their parents as well as the supervision of school officials. FEMA had no right to abduct these children. Again, it is all part of the conditioning process. According to the globalists, your children do not belong to you. Your body does not belong to you. Everything belongs to the state.
What Is the Motivation Behind the NFL's Actions?
Nobody is asking why the NFL would so willingly go along with this tyranny that is beginning to alienate the fan base of America's most popular sport. The answer to this question is the same answer to the question as to why today's pastors have compromised their message delivered from the pulpit.
Churches no longer take on issues like abortion, homosexuality and the war in Afghanistan from their pulpits on high. Pastor's have willingly adopted the perverted interpretation of Romans 13 to get their flock to blindly follow the orders of a tyrannical government. Why would the pastors do this? The root of all evil is indeed money. As most churches declare themselves tax exempt under the provisions of 501 c 3, the IRS forbids the pastors to make political statements, or to allow a tax-exempt church to engage in political activity as a body. So, you might ask, what does this have to do with the globalization of the NFL? The NFL is granted the privilege of violate the anti-trust legislation this country. Both your pastors and the NFL have sold out their integrity for 30 pieces of silver.
There are a number of ways that people could react to this information. I do not believe that denial would be one of the expected responses as there is just too much proof that the NFL is no longer just in the entertainment business. The NFL is firmly in the grip of the globalists and subservient to their agenda. Mainstream America is enthralled with this entity that made over $9 billion dollars last year. However, the NFL does not represent the values of the American middle class once the game action leaves the field.
If Americans wanted to strike a blow at the globalists, boycotting the NFL would prove to be an ideal course of action. What message would that send to the globalists if the NFL were to go down in flames for supporting the New World Order agenda?
Simply put, do not buy NFL clothing and write to their corporate partners telling them that you are boycotting their products, as well, because they are affiliated with the NFL. The initials, NFL, should come to stand for Not For Long. We have the ability to win this one battle. We can destroy this globalist entity by simply withdrawing our support. And if that strategy were to work in collapsing this entity, imagine how empowered the people would become in taking on other globalist-controlled programs.
In the next part of the this series, I am going to reveal what insiders are saying about the detention centers and what will happen when the forced incarcerations begin. To view the next part in this series, log on here. Just one hint about the next article in this series, getting people herded into the stadiums, is only the beginning.
Letter to recruit mock parents to participate in Operation Mountain Guardian.
From DPS: Operation Mountain Guardian
The Colorado North Central Region, Denver MMRS, Denver UASI, Denver Police Department and Denver Public Schools are looking for 30 parent volunteers to participate in the upcoming Operation Mountain Guardian (OMG) exercise on Friday, September 23, 2011. OMG is a fullscale, multi-jurisdictional exercise that will take place at several locations in the Denver metro area. The exercise will focus on the emergency response to multiple terrorism-based incidents and will include more than 80 law enforcement, fire, EMS, hospital, and emergency management agencies.
*DPS is in need of parent volunteers to report to Rita Bass Center at Denver Health, 190 West 6th Avenue (SE Corner of 6th Avenue and Bannock Street) at 8:00 a.m. on Sept. 23, 2011.
*Parents will be asked to test the medical information release and reunification processes in place across the city. The exercise should finish at Denver Health at approximately 11:30 a.m.
*Parents are also need to test the same systems at Sports Authority Field. Parents will need to report to the north entrance of the stadium at 12:00p.m. The exercise will finish at approximately 3:00 p.m.
Parking at both locations will be provided. Please note this is an exercise designed to test the metro areas response to a catastrophic incident.

37 Reasons Why "The Economic Recovery Of 2013″ It´s Lie
"If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it." Sadly, that appears to be the approach that the Obama administration and the mainstream media are taking with the U.S. economy.
They seem to believe that if they just keep telling the American people over and over that things are getting better, eventually the American people will believe that it is actually true. On Friday, it was announced that the unemployment rate had fallen to "7 percent", and the mainstream media responded with a mix of euphoria and jubilation. For example, one USA Today article declared that "with today's jobs report, one really can say that our long national post-financial crisis nightmare is over."
But is that actually the truth? As you will see below, if you assume that the labor force participation rate in the U.S. is at the long-term average, the unemployment rate in the United States would actually be 11.5 percent instead of 7 percent. There has been absolutely no employment recovery. The percentage of Americans that are actually working has stayed between 58 and 59 percent for 51 months in a row. But most Americans don't understand these things and they just take whatever the mainstream media tells them as the truth.
And of course the reality of the matter is that we should have seen some sort of an economic recovery by now. Those running our system have literally been mortgaging the future in a desperate attempt to try to pump up our economic numbers. The federal government has been on the greatest debt binge in U.S. history and the Federal Reserve has been printing money like crazed lunatics. All of that "stimulus" should have had some positive short-term effects on the economy.
Sadly, all of those "emergency measures" do not appear to have done much at all. The percentage of Americans that have a job has stayed remarkably flat since the end of 2009, median household income has fallen for five years in a row, and the rate of homeownership in the United States has fallen for eight years in a row. Anyone that claims that the U.S. economy is experiencing a "recovery" is simply not telling the truth. The following are 37 reasons why "the economic recovery of 2013" is a giant lie...
#1 The only reason that the official unemployment rate has been declining over the past couple of years is that the federal government has been pretending that millions upon millions of unemployed Americans no longer want a job and have "left the labor force". As Zero Hedge recently demonstrated, if the labor force participation rate returned to the long-term average of 65.8 percent, the official unemployment rate in the United States would actually be 11.5 percentinstead of 7 percent.
#2 The percentage of Americans that are actually working is much lower than it used to be. In November 2000, 64.3 percent of all working age Americans had a job. When Barack Obama first entered the White House, 60.6 percent of all working age Americans had a job. Today, only 58.6 percent of all working age Americans have a job. In fact, as you can see from the chart posted below, there has been absolutely no "employment recovery" since the depths of the last recession...
#3 The employment-population ratio has now been under 59 percentfor 51 months in a row.
#4 There are 1,148,000 fewer Americans working today than there was in November 2006. Meanwhile, our population has grown by more than 16 million people during that time frame.
#5 The "inactivity rate" for men in their prime working years (25 to 54) has just hit a brand new all-time record high. Does this look like an "economic recovery" to you?...
#6 The number of working age Americans without a job has increasedby a total of 27 million since the year 2000.
#7 In November 2007, there were 121.9 million full-time workers in the United States. Today, there are only 116.9 million full-time workers in the United States.
#8 Middle-wage jobs accounted for 60 percent of the jobs lost during the last recession, but they have accounted for only 22 percent of the jobs created since then.
#9 Only about 47 percent of all adults in America have a full-time job at this point.
#10 The ratio of wages to corporate profits in the United States just hita brand new all-time low.
#11 It is hard to believe, but in America today one out of every ten jobs is now filled by a temp agency.
#12 Approximately one out of every four part-time workers in America is living below the poverty line.
#13 In this economic environment, there is intense competition even for the lowest paying jobs. Wal-Mart recently opened up two new stores in Washington D.C., and more than 23,000 people applied for just 600 positions. That means that only about 2.6 percent of the applicants were ultimately hired. In comparison, Harvard offers admission to 6.1 percent of their applicants.
#14 According to the Social Security Administration, 40 percent of all U.S. workers make less than $20,000 a year.
#15 When Barack Obama took office, the average duration of unemployment in this country was 19.8 weeks. Today, it is 37.2 weeks.
#16 According to the New York Times, long-term unemployment in America is up by 213 percent since 2007.
#17 Thanks to Obama administration policies which are systematically killing off small businesses in the United States, the percentage of self-employed Americans is at an all-time low today.
#18 According to economist Tim Kane, the following is how the number of startup jobs per 1000 Americans breaks down by presidential administration...
Bush Sr.: 11.3
Clinton: 11.2
Bush Jr.: 10.8
Obama: 7.8
#19 According to the U.S. Census Bureau, median household income in the United States has fallen for five years in a row.
#20 The rate of homeownership in the United States has fallen for eight years in a row.
#21 Back in 1999, 64.1 percent of all Americans were covered by employment-based health insurance. Today, only 54.9 percent of all Americans are covered by employment-based health insurance, andthanks to Obamacare millions more Americans are now losing their health insurance plans.
#22 As 2003 began, the average price of a gallon of regular gasoline was about $1.30. When Barack Obama took office, the average price of a gallon of regular gasoline was $1.85. Today, it is $3.26.
#23 Total consumer credit has risen by a whopping 22 percent over the past three years.
#24 In 2008, the total amount of student loan debt in this country was sitting at about 440 billion dollars. Today, it has shot up toapproximately a trillion dollars.
#25 Under Barack Obama, the velocity of money (a very important indicator of economic health) has plunged to a post-World War II low.
#26 Back in the year 2000, our trade deficit with China was 83 billion dollars. In 2008, our trade deficit with China was 268 billion dollars. Last year, it was 315 billion dollars. That was the largest trade deficit that one nation has had with another nation in world history.
#27 The gap between the rich and the poor in the United States is at anall-time record high.
#28 Right now, 1.2 million students that attend public schools in the United States are homeless. That is a brand new all-time record high, and that number has risen by 72 percent since the start of the last recession.
#29 When Barack Obama first entered the White House, there were about 32 million Americans on food stamps. Today, there are more than 47 million Americans on food stamps.
#30 Right now, approximately one out of every five households in the United States is on food stamps.
#31 According to the Survey of Income and Program Participation conducted by the U.S. Census, well over 100 million Americans are enrolled in at least one welfare program run by the federal government.
#32 In 2000, the U.S. government spent 199 billion dollars on Medicaid. In 2008, the U.S. government spent 338 billion dollars on Medicaid. In 2012, the U.S. government spent 417 billion dollars on Medicaid, and now Obamacare is going to add tens of millions more Americans to the Medicaid rolls.
#33 In 2000, the U.S. government spent 219 billion dollars on Medicare. In 2008, the U.S. government spent 462 billion dollars on Medicare. In 2012, the U.S. government spent 560 billion dollars on Medicare, and that number is expected to absolutely skyrocket in the years ahead as the Baby Boomers retire.
#34 According to the most recent numbers from the U.S. Census Bureau, an all-time record high 49.2 percent of all Americans are receiving benefits from at least one government program.
#35 The U.S. government has spent an astounding 3.7 trillion dollarson welfare programs over the past five years.
#36 When Barack Obama was first elected, the U.S. debt to GDP ratio was under 70 percent. Today, it is up to 101 percent.
#37 The U.S. national debt is on pace to more than double during the eight years of the Obama administration. In other words, under Barack Obama the U.S. government will accumulate more debt than it did under all of the other presidents in U.S. history combined.
Fortunately, it appears that most Americans are not buying into the propaganda. According to a new CNN survey, the percentage of Americans that believe that the economy is getting worse far exceeds the percentage of Americans that believe that the economy is improving...
Americans views on the state of the nation are turning increasingly sour, according to a new national poll.
And a CNN/ORC International survey released Friday also indicates that less than a quarter of the public says that economic conditions are improving, while nearly four in ten say the nation's economy is getting worse.
Forty-one percent of those questioned in the poll say things are going well in the country today, down nine percentage points from April, and the lowest that number has been in CNN polling since February 2012. Fifty-nine percent say things are going badly, up nine points from April.

FEDERAL BUREAU CAN SECRETLY ACTIVATE AN INDIVIDUAL'S WEBCAM WITHOUT THE INDICATOR LIGHT TURNING ON
The FBI can secretly activate a computer's webcam to spy on an individual without turning on the indicator light, a former official revealed to the Washington Post in an article published Friday.
According to the Washington Post's account of what Marcus Thomas — former assistant director of the FBI's Operational Technology Division in Quantico — said, "The FBI has been able to covertly activate a computer's camera — without triggering the light that lets users know it is recording — for several years, and has used that technique mainly in terrorism cases or the most serious criminal investigations."
"Because of encryption and because targets are increasingly using mobile devices, law enforcement is realizing that more and more they're going to have to be on the device — or in the cloud," Thomas added, in reference to remote storage services. "There's the realization out there that they're going to have to use these types of tools more and more."
TheBlaze has previously reported on hackers using remote access tools to activate an individual's webcam and spy on them.

Researchers show possibility of cloning quantum information from the past
Popular television shows such as "Doctor Who" have brought the idea of time travel into the vernacular of popular culture. But problem of time travel is even more complicated than one might think. LSU's Mark Wilde has shown that it would theoretically be possible for time travelers to copy quantum data from the past.
It all started when David Deutsch, a pioneer of quantum computing and a physicist at Oxford, came up with a simplified model of time travel to deal with the paradoxes that would occur if one could travel back in time. For example, would it be possible to travel back in time to kill one's grandfather? In the Grandfather paradox, a time traveler faces the problem that if he kills his grandfather back in time, then he himself is never born, and consequently is unable to travel through time to kill his grandfather, and so on. Some theorists have used this paradox to argue that it is actually impossible to change the past.
"The question is, how would you have existed in the first place to go back in time and kill your grandfather?" said Mark Wilde, an LSU assistant professor with a joint appointment in the Department of Physics and Astronomy and with the Center for Computation and Technology, or CCT.
Deutsch solved the Grandfather paradox originally using a slight change to quantum theory, proposing that you could change the past as long as you did so in a self-consistent manner.
"Meaning that, if you kill your grandfather, you do it with only probability one-half," Wilde said. "Then, he's dead with probability one-half, and you are not born with probability one-half, but the opposite is a fair chance. You could have existed with probability one-half to go back and kill your grandfather."
But the Grandfather paradox is not the only complication with time travel. Another problem is the no-cloning theorem, or the no "subatomic Xerox-machine" theorem, known since 1982. This theorem, which is related to the fact that one cannot copy quantum data at will, is a consequence of Heisenberg's famous Uncertainty Principle, by which one can measure either the position of a particle or its momentum, but not both with unlimited accuracy. According to the Uncertainty Principle, it is thus impossible to have a subatomic Xerox-machine that would take one particle and spit out two particles with the same position and momentum – because then you would know too much about both particles at once.
"We can always look at a paper, and then copy the words on it. That's what we call copying classical data," Wilde said. "But you can't arbitrarily copy quantum data, unless it takes the special form of classical data. This no-cloning theorem is a fundamental part of quantum mechanics – it helps us reason how to process quantum data. If you can't copy data, then you have to think of everything in a very different way."
But what if a Deutschian closed timelike curve did allow for copying of quantum data to many different points in space? According to Wilde, Deutsch suggested in his late 20th century paper that it should be possible to violate the fundamental no-cloning theorem of quantum mechanics. Now, Wilde and collaborators at the University of Southern California and the Autonomous University of Barcelona have advanced Deutsch's 1991 work with a recent paper in Physical Review Letters. The new approach allows for a particle, or a time traveler, to make multiple loops back in time – something like Bruce Willis' travels in the Hollywood film "Looper."
"That is, at certain locations in spacetime, there are wormholes such that, if you jump in, you'll emerge at some point in the past," Wilde said. "To the best of our knowledge, these time loops are not ruled out by the laws of physics. But there are strange consequences for quantum information processing if their behavior is dictated by Deutsch's model."
A single looping path back in time, a time spiral of sorts, behaving according to Deutsch's model, for example, would have to allow for a particle entering the loop to remain the same each time it passed through a particular point in time. In other words, the particle would need to maintain self-consistency as it looped back in time.
"In some sense, this already allows for copying of the particle's data at many different points in space," Wilde said, "because you are sending the particle back many times. It's like you have multiple versions of the particle available at the same time. You can then attempt to read out more copies of the particle, but the thing is, if you try to do so as the particle loops back in time, then you change the past."
To be consistent with Deutsch's model, which holds that you can only change the past as long as you can do it in a self-consistent manner, Wilde and colleagues had to come up with a solution that would allow for a looping curve back in time, and copying of quantum data based on a time traveling particle, without disturbing the past.
"That was the major breakthrough, to figure out what could happen at the beginning of this time loop to enable us to effectively read out many copies of the data without disturbing the past," Wilde said. "It just worked."
However, there is still some controversy over interpretations of the new approach, Wilde said. In one instance, the new approach may actually point to problems in Deutsch's original closed timelike curve model.
"If quantum mechanics gets modified in such a way that we've never observed should happen, it may be evidence that we should question Deutsch's model," Wilde said. "We really believe that quantum mechanics is true, at this point. And most people believe in a principle called Unitarity in quantum mechanics. But with our new model, we've shown that you can essentially violate something that is a direct consequence of Unitarity. To me, this is an indication that something weird is going on with Deutsch's model. However, there might be some way of modifying the model in such a way that we don't violate the no-cloning theorem."
Other researchers argue that Wilde's approach wouldn't actually allow for copying quantum data from an unknown particle state entering the time loop because nature would already "know" what the particle looked like, as it had traveled back in time many times before.
But whether or not the no-cloning theorem can truly be violated as Wilde's new approach suggests, the consequences of being able to copy quantum data from the past are significant. Systems for secure Internet communications, for example, will likely soon rely on quantum security protocols that could be broken or "hacked" if Wilde's looping time travel methods were correct.
"If an adversary, if a malicious person, were to have access to these time loops, then they could break the security of quantum key distribution," Wilde said. "That's one way of interpreting it. But it's a very strong practical implication because the big push of quantum communication is this secure way of communicating. We believe that this is the strongest form of encryption that is out there because it's based on physical principles."
Today, when you log into your Gmail or Facebook, your password and information encryption is not based on physical principles of quantum mechanical security, but rather on the computational assumption that it is very difficult for "hackers" to factor mathematical products of prime numbers, for example. But physicists and computer scientists are working on securing critical and sensitive communications using the principles of quantum mechanics. Such encryption is believed to be unbreakable – that is, as long as hackers don't have access to Wilde's looping closed timelike curves.
"This ability to copy quantum information freely would turn quantum theory into an effectively classical theory in which, for example, classical data thought to be secured by quantum cryptography would no longer be safe," Wilde said. "It seems like there should be a revision to Deutsch's model which would simultaneously resolve the various time travel paradoxes but not lead to such striking consequences for quantum information processing. However, no one yet has offered a model that meets these two requirements. This is the subject of open research."

Japan Press: "China-Japan War To Break Out In January"
Following China's unveiling of its air defense identification zone (ADIZ) in the East China Sea, overlapping a large expanse of territory also claimed by Japan, the Japanese media has, as The Japan Times reports, had a dramatically visceral reaction on the various scenarios of a shooting war. From Sunday Mainichi's "Sino-Japanese war to break out in January," to Flash's "Simulated breakout of war over the Senkakus," the nationalism (that Kyle Bass so notably commented on) is rising. Which side, wonders Shukan Gendai ominously, will respond to a provocation by pulling the trigger? The game of chicken between two great superpowers is about to begin has begun.
Via The Japan Times,
Five out of nine weekly magazines that went on sale last Monday and Tuesday contained scenarios that raised the possibility of a shooting war.
First, let's take Flash (Dec. 17), which ran a "Simulated breakout of war over the Senkakus," with Mamoru Sato, a former Air Self-Defense Force general, providing editorial supervision. Flash's scenario has the same tense tone as a Clancy novel, including dialog. On a day in August 2014, a radar operator instructs patrolling F-15J pilots to "scramble north" at an altitude of 65,000 feet to intercept a suspected intruder and proceeds from there.
Sunday Mainichi (Dec. 15) ran an article headlined "Sino-Japanese war to break out in January." Political reporter Takao Toshikawa tells the magazine that the key to what happens next will depend on China's economy.
"The economic situation in China is pretty rough right now, and from the start of next year it's expected to worsen," says Toshikawa. "The real-estate boom is headed for a total collapse and the economic disparities between the costal regions and the interior continue to widen. I see no signs that the party's Central Committee is getting matters sorted out."
An unnamed diplomatic source offered the prediction that the Chinese might very well set off an incident "accidentally on purpose": "I worry about the possibility they might force down a civilian airliner and hold the passengers hostage," he suggested.
In an article described as a "worst-case simulation," author Osamu Eya expressed concerns in Shukan Asahi Geino (Dec. 12) that oil supertankers bound for Japan might be targeted.
"Japan depends on sea transport for oil and other material resources," said Eya. "If China were to target them, nothing could be worse to contemplate."
In an air battle over the Senkakus, the Geino article continues,superiority of radar communications would be a key factor in determining the outcome. Japanese forces have five fixed radar stations in Kyushu and four in Okinawa. China would certainly target these, which would mean surrounding communities would also be vulnerable.
One question that seems to be on almost everybody's mind is, will the U.S. military become involved?
Shukan Gendai (Dec. 14) speculated that Chinese leader Xi Jinping might issue an order for a Japanese civilian airliner to be shot down. As a result of this, a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier would come to Japan's aid and send up fighters to contend with the Chinese.
"Unlike Japan, the U.S. military would immediately respond to a radar lock-on threat by shooting down the Chinese planes," asserts military analyst Mitsuhiro Sera. "It would naturally regard an aircraft flying overhead as hostile. They would shoot at it even if that were to risk discrediting the Obama administration."
"With the creation of Japan's National Security Council on Dec. 4, Japan-U.S. solidarity meets a new era," an unnamed diplomatic source told Shukan Gendai. "If a clash were to occur between the U.S. and China, it would be natural for the Self-Defense Forces to provide backup assistance. This was confirmed at the 'two-plus-two' meeting on Oct. 3."
"China is bent on wresting the Senkakus away from Japan, and if Japan dispatches its Self-Defense Forces, China will respond with naval and air forces," Saburo Takai predicts in Flash. "In the case of an incursion by irregular forces, that would make it more difficult for the U.S. to become involved. Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs would protest through diplomatic channels, but China would attempt to present its takeover as a fait accompli.
"China fears a direct military confrontation with the U.S.,"Takai adds. "A few days ago, two U.S. B-52s transited the ADIZ claimed by China, but the flights were not for any vague purpose. I suppose the Chinese tracked the flights on their radar, but the B-52s have electronic detection functions that can identify radar frequencies, wavelength and source of the signals. These flights are able to lay bare China's air defense systems. It really hits home to the Chinese that they can't project their military power."
Which side, wonders Shukan Gendai, will respond to a provocation by pulling the trigger? The game of chicken between two great superpowers is about to begin.

The Journal of Computer Security presents research and development results of lasting significance in the theory, design, implementation, analysis, and application of secure computer systems. It also provides a forum for ideas about the meaning and implications of security and privacy, particularly those with important consequences for the technical community.
The journal provides an opportunity to publish articles of greater depth and length than is possible in the proceedings of various existing conferences, while addressing an audience of researchers in computer security who can be assumed to have a more specialized background than the readership of other archival publications. The journal welcomes contributions on all aspects of computer security: confidentiality, integrity, and assurance of service - that is, protection against unauthorized disclosure or modification of sensitive information, or denial of service. Of interest is a precise understanding of security policies through modelling, as well as the design and analysis of mechanisms for enforcing them, and the architectural principles of software and hardware systems implementing them.

Security policy refinement and enforcement for the design of multi-level secure systems
Authors: Zhou, Jie | Alves-Foss, Jim
Article Type: Research Article
Abstract: The successful design and implementation of secure systems must include security concerns from the beginning. A component that processes data at multiple security levels is critical and must go through additional evaluation to ensure the processing is secure. It is common practice to isolate and separate the processing of data at different levels into different components. In this paper we present policy-based architectural refinement techniques for the design of multi-level secure (MLS) systems. In addition, a policy refinement language is proposed to specify the rules of refinement patterns, and the hierarchy of the refinement patterns is presented. We discuss which …security policies must be satisfied through the refinement process, including when separation works and when it does not. The process oriented approach will lead to verified engineering techniques for the design of MLS systems, which should greatly reduce the cost of certification of those systems. Show more

Privacy policy enforcement in enterprises with identity management solutions
Authors: Casassa Mont, Marco | Thyne, Robert
Abstract: People are usually asked by enterprises to disclose their personal information to access web services and engage in business interactions. Enterprises need this information to enable their business processes. This is unlikely to change, at least in the foreseeable future. When collecting personal data, enterprises must satisfy privacy laws and policies along with addressing people's expectations on how their data should be handled. Currently much is done by means of manual processes, in particular in terms of privacy enforcement: these processes are prone to mistakes and hard to comply with. Automation can help enterprises to deal with these privacy management …issues, in particular the enforcement of privacy policies on collected personal data. Enterprises have already been investing in identity management solutions: they require that approaches to automate privacy management should keep into account and leverage these solutions. This paper discusses our research and development work to automate the enforcement of privacy policies in enterprises. Our model of privacy policy enforcement is introduced along with the technical details of a related prototype, integrated (as a proof of concept) with HP Select Access, a state-of-the-art identity management solution. This technology is currently under productisation. We discuss our current results and next steps. Show more

Approximate autoregressive modeling for network attack detection
Authors: Nayyar, Harshit | Ghorbani, Ali A.
Abstract: This paper presents a technique for creating an ARX model of network signals and using it for detecting network anomalies caused by intrusions. Network signals are non-stationary, highly volatile and hard to model using traditional methods. We present our own modeling technique using a combination of system identification theory and wavelet approximation. We also present the results of a prototype implementation applied to 1999 DARPA intrusion detection evaluation data set. We verify that the technique is viable for anomaly based intrusion detection and can contribute to defense in depth in a network. The technique proposed is online, generic and can …be used with many other network signals like bandwidth consumption, rate of flow arrival or SNMP variables. Moreover, it requires minimal expertise for use on the part of the network administrator and automatically adapts to the underlying network behavior. Show more

Privacy in video surveilled spaces
Authors: Spindler, Torsten | Wartmann, Christoph | Hovestadt, Ludger | Roth, Daniel | Van Gool, Luc | Steffen, Andreas
Abstract: We present a system prototype for self-determination and privacy enhancement in video surveilled areas by integrating computer vision and cryptographic techniques into networked building automation systems. This paper describes a system prototype and research work that has been conducted by an interdisciplinary team of researchers. People appearing in a video stream control their visibility on a per-viewer basis and can choose to allow either the real view or an obscured image to be seen. The parts of the video stream containing a person's image are protected by an AES cipher and can be sent over untrusted networks. This paper presents …experimental results with the example of a meeting room scenario. We conclude with remarks on the system's usability and on the problems encountered. Show more

Constraint based role based access control in the SECTET-framework
Authors: Alam, Muhammad | Hafner, Michael | Breu, Ruth
Abstract: With respect to Service Oriented Architectures (SOA's) paradigm, the core Role Based Access Control (RBAC) has several limitations. In SOA, permissions to execute web services are not assigned statically to roles but are associated with a set of Permission Assignment Constraints (PAC) upon the fulfilment of which a role is assigned a permission to execute a web service. Further, the RBAC does not support partial inheritance which is an integral requirement in SOA. A major challenge in SOA is the inheritance of permissions associated with PAC in the presence of role hierarchies. This contribution has three objectives. First we propose …an extension to Role Based Access Control (available at http://csrc.nist.gov/rbac/ ), which we call Constraint based RBAC (CRBAC), in order to make RBAC applicable to the dynamic environment of SOA. Within CRBAC, a high-level language – called SECTET-PL (available at http://qe-informatik.uibk.ac.at/~muhammad/TechnicalReportSECTETPL.pdf ) is used for the specification of PAC. Being part of the SECTET-framework for model-driven security for B2B-workflows, SECTET-PL is a policy language influenced by OCL (available at http://www.omg.org/docs/ptc/03-10-14.pdf ) and interpreted in the context of UML models. Using the Model Driven Architecture (MDA) (available at http://www.omg.org/mda ) paradigm, we then describe the transformation of high-level security models to low-level web services standard artefacts with the help of the Eclipse Modelling Framework and OpenArchitectureWare. Finally, we present the target architecture of the SECTET-framework used to realize the security artefacts generated from the transformations and thus completes the cycle of MDA. Show more

Q: Rebinning numpy array by non-integer factor I have a grid of model spectra, which have a constant, very high spectral resolution, and I need to down-sample them to a lower resolution, while preserving the total number of counts.
In essence, if the first 5 bins have (nominal center-of-bin) wavelengths [7.8, 7.81, 7.82, 7.83, 7.84], and the values [1.01, 1.02, 1.015, 1.014, 1.02], and my desired bins are some (non-integer) factor (say, 2.5) times as wide, I want my new spectrum to have nominal wavelengths [7.81, 7.83] and values [1.01+1.02+0.5*1.015, 0.5*1.015+1.014+1.02] (in general, though, the bins are not lined up as well, so you may get fractions of bins on either side).
I'll call my grid spec_ssp, and it has a shape of (93, 16, 39848). Wavelength varies along axis 2, and the first two axes are other parameters. I also have the nominal (central) wavelengths for each wavelength bin (technically, they're the log of the wavelength, but that shouldn't matter), called logL_ssp, and the desired new spacing of the logL grid, dlogL_new. I can figure out the nominal logL spacing of my templates dlogL_ssp by calculating np.median(logL_ssp[1:] - logL_ssp[:-1]), and it's about 20% the desired logL spacing. We'll call that fraction f.
I originally tried to use scipy.ndimage.zoom, using the aforementioned factor f, but discovered that it gives me an array that's downsampled by a factor of exactly 4. I need an exact resampling, so this won't work.
Next, I tried linearly interpolating along axis 2 using np.interp1d, after setting up new bin limits, with the aim of integrating the spectra in my grid using np.integrate.quad between successive bin limits, effectively getting an estimate of the total light in each of my new bins, more or less rigorously. However, quad doesn't play nicely with interp1d's interpolators (quad doesn't like non-float inputs). And, since I have ~1500 model spectra, the whole thing takes ages to run while iterating over all three axes (yes, I'm only making a new interpolator once per model spectrum).
Any ideas how to tackle this?

Q: LinkedIn iOS SDK - [invalid.profile.access]. You don't have access to the profile I have an app that uses LinkedIn for signing users in. Then, it retrieves information about users using the LinkedIn iOS SDK.
I have 2 users, A and B. Both of them are signed into my app, one app instance for each user: InstanceA for user A and InstanceB for user B.
The problem I have is that when I try to retrieve basic profile information for user A from InstanceB, I get the following LinkedIn error.
{
  "errorCode": 0,
  "message": "[invalid.profile.access]. You don't have access to the profile",
  "requestId": "BLABLABLA",

}

If I use LinkedIn's sampleApp that comes with the LinkedIn iOS SDK, then I can get this information for both user A and B.
Any idea why this error occurs and what I can do to fix it?
Thanks!

Those of us with clients that own businesses, highly appreciated stock, commercial or residential investment real estate assets, we often find those clients who are reluctant to sell their asset because of the capital gains taxes associated with the sale. The Estate Planning Team's Deferred Sales Trust™ offers an alternative to a 1031 Exchange to help your client reduce capital gains tax liability or to enable them to sell their property in a down market.
This capital gains tax deferral tool could save you thousands of dollars, and by having the opportunity to potentially make a profit on the money you would have paid to Uncle Sam in the year of the sale. Additionally, even in a depressed real estate market, because the client is making money (an interest payment) on the full value of the sale (the sales price) and not the net after tax dollars, your seller clients can reduce their price, SELL NOW, and still make out better over time via proper tax planning with a qualified tax professional. The DST can also be more simply described as a no risk "seller carry-back" financing structure.
The process starts with initial due diligence. If the transaction is viable, the trust and property owner will negotiate to reach terms with regard to the asset(s). Then, the property owner would transfer ownership of the property to a dedicated trust. The trust then sells the property, stock or other capital asset to the buyer. Next, the trust "pays" the client with a payment contract called an "installment sales contract." The contract promises to make installment payments to the owner or their trust and those payments can even be structured to continue to future generations with additional estate planning. There are generally minimal taxes to the trust at the time of the sale since the trust often acquires the property from the client for a price that may not be materially different from the sales amount.
Should your client choose, they can defer the start date of the principal payments. Your clients may have other income and may not need the payments right away. The tax code does not require payment of the capital gains tax until the seller starts receiving installment payments. The capital gains tax paid to the IRS is only that portion of the capital gains tax due in proportion to the number of years established in the term of the installment agreement.
The Deferred Sales Trust™ has the ability to generate substantially more money over the long run than a direct and taxed sale. It is also superior to a direct installment sale as the concerns of a defaulting buyer are eliminated.
• Tax Deferral: When appreciated property is sold, tax on gain is deferred until receipt of payments.
• Estate Tax Benefits: Accomplishes an estate freeze for estate tax purposes.
• Maintains Family Wealth: Helps to maintain wealth within the family.
• Estate Liquidity: Converts an illiquid asset into monthly payments.
• Retirement Income: provides a stream of income for retirement.
• Probate Avoidance: With proper estate planning.
For Real Estate Professionals: Set yourself apart from your competition by offering your clients and prospects the DST as a way to defer capital gains. The DST is a valuable marketing tool to increase your high-end listings.
For Investment Advisors, RIA'S and insurance agents, banks and financial institutions; the DST is an excellent asset gathering tool. Once the DST is implemented, the trustee can enlist the services of the registered representative or insurance agent to invest the assets. Determining the suitability of implementing a DST with prospective clients also presents opportunities for other types of trusts, estate planning and financial services. To date EPT"s average case size is $2,200,000,00. EPT members across the country have closed over $1 billion in assets!

What is the Role of the Senior Officier dans la Grande Armée de Christ?
What is the Role of the Senior "Officier dans la Grande Armée de Christ"?
This unusual concept is demanded by the appalling conditions we live alongside namely unruly and tumultuous persons who have no understanding of our justice in its most powerful and meaningful sense.
I have referred to this rank and post in several recent essays of mine issued since 1 May 2015. I say at the outset I consider I do hold this Senior "Officier" status to which I first laid claim in my 23 June 2013 English Roman Catholic Church essay. I have come a long way since then as those who know me will tell you. Clearly I am not referring to conventional military command nor the "Sally Army" if they, in that esteemed Army, will excuse the nickname. My concept of this "Officier's" task is the very opposite of controlling, officious and dictatorial. Rather I envisage exhortation and coaxing others I concede. It is up to each individual under my "command" moral to decide for themselves at each step of the way if they will follow my lead. But lead I will or I would dishonour the "command" I have been given.
Yes it is a command, have no doubt, and I know this is understood by many or I would be taken care of on a hospital ward. It is not an Earthly office like the Attorney-General or priest or a professorship. It is a fact I live thank God so this command lives in me R.M. Lamb Esq. but it is not personal to me. It is not a command in Heaven either. I believe I had predecessors and I will have a successor or the "command" would be worthless. Yes my career has been in the Law and that profession is governed by the Judges and Senior Advocates. I have been an Advocate in law and since 1 June 2013 I have become a moralist in my short essays, all released on Kindle, now totalling 207 and still going.
The command is thus to encourage, elucidate and to clarify for myself and my readers. Like it or not my confidence has been boosted by the heights of insight and understanding I have achieved in these essays. I never thought in June 2013 I would go so far, yet I made my claims in that 23 June 2013 essay which has proved long lasting, particularly in my essays since 1 November 2014. These essays are my claim to this "Officier de la plus haute classe" status. You will only comprehend this Senior "Officier" concept in my essays I am bound to say. I formed the vision of this "Officier" in the start of my essays released. It is down to R.M. Lamb alone this belief overt and it must be understood through these essays or not at all.
No one else has come near me on this idea save General Booth. I do not bring salvation only the opening of eyes and thereby those individuals may believe for themselves and in themselves. I wish them to believe what is right of whatever religion or indeed none at all. I do not convert.
The essence lies in the tiny mustard seed and the shrub of such extent which emerges from that seed with the birds nesting within it. This equates to each individual and his or her character and personality developing and growing on Earth. I speak not of myself but of my sincere desire those who read my essays will so flourish. Religion is unimportant, what matters is the progress I may enhance on Earth to this personal goal in each essay: R.M. Lamb and the reader. The command lies ultimately above me or it would not be "Christ's Grande Armée" I agree. But my rank as "Officier" is not like the Major in the British Army, it is rather he who opens the door and "pulls back the curtains" to show the enemies of Christ as I wrote in my 23 June 2013 essay. That is not officious, but persuasive in the proper sense of delivering the truth.
I am no preacher and my polemicism liberates, it does not order about or lord it over others. I have borrowed the military language yes, but to discipline myself, Christ will do the rest. I do command by the commanding vision of Christ I concede. Christ does not boss his people about and nor therefore do I.
In Bonaparte's day his army was called the Grande Armee (1795-1815). What a puffed up autocrat he was and how miserable his soldiers sent to their death. I envisage Christ in direct contact with His Armée and I the Senior "Officier" as the moral writer on so many aspects of the Death Sentence and other topics. If you like I have become the channel for some who read these essays of mine to achieve resolution and direction in their lives. Yes I am of la plus haute classe in this Armée of Christ because I carry out this role of the moral advocate single handed. I am no facilitator; it has to be polemicist for R.M. Lamb. There are many who are conductors for Christ's Word in England I readily concur. But I am the only layman who writes in my manner and with my moral message in these essays. Thus I am the Senior "Officier". No one seeks to usurp or rival me in Christ's Grande Armée, I am a standalone figure and therefore the Senior man and "Officier" in my time.
I should say several Senior "Officiers" in the past, one unnamed, have had a less overtly active and well argued approach to myself in this post I speak of. Yet their piety and Christian faith far exceeds mine. They have not desired to publish their writings and thoughts as I have. They have been content to be good Roman Catholics. England's Catholicism has been emancipated since 1829. It is since then this English Roman Catholic "Officier" of Christ's Grande Armée emerges. Thus the position of Senior "Officier" has been claimed by my Roman Catholic family of Richard Westbrook Lamb Esq. (my great grandfather) since the 1850's, and he himself the first holder. But I believe the baton was held by a Roman Catholic layman outside our Catholic Lamb family of mine between 1964 and 2012.
My own grandfather Major Stephen Eaton Lamb (died 1927) and my uncle Monsignor J.C. Lamb (died 1964) would have both been such Senior "Officiers" in their time I believe. Thus I have good lineage: Roman Catholic and by these noted Lamb family members the status of this Senior "Officier" has been established and handed down to myself, subject to the non-family member, but he very well regarded and similarly well known. I claim my insight and Senior "Officier" position is derived from this promise made to my ancestors and kept by them, including this "Officier" not a Lamb. I now have the great honour to fulfil this highly esteemed rank on Earth as all my predecessors did. I learn from them all. Christ has put His trust in R.M. Lamb His humble "Officier" since 2012 as He did in those preceding me since 1850.
The equally important aspect to all I have written herein is I will defend this case in my essays under the office and authority of this Senior "Officier" status of mine, and by the power of Christ's Grande Armée on this planet to my dying day. Thus I am the Senior "Officier" in charge and I will defend the positions, bastions and redoubts of this Senior "Officier" as taken by Christ's Grande Armée directly in accordance with this military analogy. I will not give an inch. These are prized gains never to be given up in any circumstances.

After decades of fire exclusion, sky islands in Texas, and throughout the Southwest, have very dense forests. These forests are already suffering from climate-induced stresses such as drought, insect outbreaks, and severe wildfires, all of which could intensify in a hotter and drier climate. Mesic canyons are the coolest and wettest parts of the sky islands. These canyons will harbor the largest number of species in the future because their sheltered topography moderates climate extremes. This project will focus thinning efforts in and around mesic canyons, reducing the stresses and enhancing the resilience of these natural refugia to climate change.

NEWS: Coventry City Academy player, Jack Burroughs, leads a campaign to raise money for Myton Hospice
Laura Hunter
One of the Academy's rising stars puts football to one side as he cycles from Vietnam to Cambodia to fundraise...
Every charity relies on the generosity of others and the drive and commitment of those trying to raise money, and as Jack Burroughs (15-years old) is showing, age is simply a number when it comes to helping people.
Jack and his Mum, Jo, will be taking part in the Vietnam to Cambodia Cycle Challenge in October in aid of Myton Hospice, a charity close to the heart of the Burroughs family after Jack's Grandmother sadly passed away.
Jack, who is part of the U16s academy set-up at the Sky Blues, was inspired when visiting a charity ball earlier on this year. Since that day, raising money and helping others less fortunate has been at the forefront of his mind.
The challenge will involve cycling 350km over a six-day period with the aim of raising a total of £6,000 between them – an amount they are, of course, hoping to surpass with the help of the Coventry City FC faithful.
Father, Steve, and Jo met almost twenty years ago at a Coventry City away day, visiting Highbury for a game against Arsenal. With Jack going into the Under-16s side and younger brother George into the Under-14s this season it is fair to say the Sky Blue colours run in their blood.
Jack and his family are appealing to the generous Sky Blue Army for their support and have set up a Just Giving page dedicated to the Cycle in the hope of raising the targeted amount. We would kindly ask any supporters able to make a donation do so, in aid of this tremendous cause.
Link: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Jo-Burroughs2
Jack's Mum, Jo Burroughs said: "When Jack came to me wanting to raise money for this cause I couldn't let the opportunity slip away and we started planning straight away.
"The whole family has been associated with the club for many years and we can only hope some of the fan base can help us reach our target because it really is a cause we feel passionate about."


FYI. The apology given was not to the African migrants - but to any sufferers of cancer who might be offended by referring to them as a "cancer".
You are so wrong when you claim that the boycott of Habima has been an embarrassment to Israel advocates in Britain. Quite the opposite, in fact. All it has done is show you in your true colours to the public at large, and they're really not impressed. You try to stop a theatre company performing in London because they perform in the settlements in the West Bank but you don't apply the same standards to Chinese performers; apparently the occupation of Tibet and Nepal are insignificant. And when was the last time you protested against Turkey's occupation of northern Cyprus?
But you use the usual Nazi trope. Why don't you boycott anywhere else. We use tactics selectively when they are likely to be effective. More to the point why do you advocate boycotting Iran but not Israel!!
Such is your hatred of Israel and Jews that you are prepared to condone ethnic cleansing, genocide, the stoning to death of 'adulterous' women, 'honour' killings, the marrying of under-age girls atrocities which are commonplace amongst those whom you claim to support and about which you have stayed strangely silent.
Nopte we endorse none of what you say. It's Israel that has supported the most backward, patriarchal elements in Palestinian and Israeli Arab society in order better to control the oppressed. Sexual abuse against young girls is very common in Orthodox circles and there have been many scandals among the Lubavitch community in particular in London and Israel. Ethnic cleansing is a Zionist speciality fool. How else is a Jewish state going to preserve their majority? What is the destruction of Arab villages like Arakabh in the Negev as part of the 'Judaification' of Israel? Or the pogroms against Africans in Tel Aviv? Words mean nothing to an idiot like you.
Stoning to death you forget is an Old Testament punishment and is part of the same barbarity that justifies the creation of Israel.
Your BDS campaign has failed; Britain is importing more than ever from Israel. And it's hypocritical because you use the product of Israeli development and technology in your everyday life - cellphones, computers, televisions etc etc etc. Let's demand a boycott but let's not get rid of what we need. We can bring Israel to its knees by stopping the purchase of oranges and cosmetics but let's keep the cellphones and computers. Talk about leading by example.
If BDS was a failure how come the Knesset passed a law making it a new tort with unlimited damages? All the electronic stuff you mention is merely American sourcing and investment in its 51st state. Take that away and you have nothing. Fact is that you are scared that Israel is slowly being isolated and in your words, deligitimised. That is the beginning of the end, as you know.
You've lost the argument. People are beginning to see through you; which is why you have to shout and scream abuse, why you have to bully-boy tactics and disrupt events to try and draw attention to yourselves. Well, all I can say is keep it up. The more you do, the better it is for Israel.
You are the bully boys. Whether it's Hebron settlers shooting up Palestinians and daubing 'Arabs to the gas chambers' on the walls or the 'peaceniks' who smashed up a car belonging to the Neturei Karta last week, when the fascist foreign minister of Israel Lieberman came to visit his favourite racist organisation, JNF, and were unlucky enough to be caught by an off-duty policeman. We all know you are violent but you hide behind the word peace. Like all liars you twist language.
Once more into the Belly of the Beast . It's habit forming . Same with your run in with the police who according to one Zionist video appear to have you kettled . Why was that ? Were you covertly passing over some gen to your Zionist handlers . Such as who is next for the Greenstein chop among Palestinian activists .
And why the need for the furtive attempt to get in .
Bonnie Prince Charlie used to comment at Richard Millett's ('If Carlsberg supported the EDL').
Yes Palestine Solidarity activists disrupted both nights of Habima and I was temporarily detained by the Police for an alleged assault on your Zionist friends. However I explained that when someone physically grabs you you have the right to self-defence, even if it did mean an overweight and unfit Harvey Garfield doing a crash landing!
What I find interesting is why you mock those who do put themselves at risk? We don't do it for the plaudits but because we believe in solidarity with the Palestinians. Except for a few quislings and collaborators Palestinians are seeing for themselves how you are attacking solidarity activists and supporting Zionist culture. Because Habimah is definitely Zionist culture, having played in the Culture Hall of Ariel, a far-right settlement (Kach is very strong there) on the West Bank.
I shall of course be reviewing your film tonight but just occasionally you should ask yourself what is the purpose of your remarks because it just emphasises ours and the US Palestine Community Network's criticism.
In other words stop attacking PS activists because some of them are Jewish.
"stop attacking PS activists because some of them are Jewish"
you are not attacked because you are Jewish but becuase you are an Idiot.as always tonyle, when nothing else to say, runs to the tribe antisemite (because some of them are Jewish) useless defence, what an Idiot.


Can some of you help me identify this song?
Thread: Can some of you help me identify this song?
First and foremost, I'd like to apologize if I'm not allowed to create threads such as this one. Feel free to delete it immediately!
Anyway, I don't even think this is a Russian song, but rather a Ukranian one, but perhaps you can still help me identify it.
It would be a big bonus if you could also identify the one at 1:46 to 2:06, but the first song is the most important though.
I hope it's okay to revive threads.
Do you know any good russian/ukrainian rap artists?
Please, help to identify the accents!

In line with the phenominal run of Caribbean strays seen in the last few weeks. Whilst working in the Polo Club a private residential area in Boca Raton I heard the tell tale tsee of a Western Spindalis. I was eventually able to find a female plumaged bird which I studied for about 10 seconds. I am sure there are still many other undiscovered strays around S. Florida so I hope todays bird will help people stay vigilant.

A Charter: Promoting the Economic Interests of Indigenous Australian Businesses Overseas
'Effective economic diplomacy requires a 'Team Australia' approach to international engagement. Access to international opportunities for Indigenous businesses are enhanced through inclusive, coordinated and outcomes-focused initiatives.'
Promoting the Economic Interests of Indigenous Australian Businesses Overseas: A Charter, DFAT 2015
At the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and Austrade, we understand the enormous contribution Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples make to modern Australian society. Along with our portfolio agencies, Tourism Australia, the Export Finance and Insurance Corporation, and the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, we work together to promote and support Indigenous Australian businesses engaging in international trade.
Our Charter, Promoting the Economic Interests of Indigenous Australian Businesses Overseas, outlines the range of services that our portfolio delivers to Indigenous businesses. The activities we undertake range from practical advice in the form of capacity and awareness-building, through to government-to-government advocacy.
A core element of our work is assisting Indigenous Australian businesses to identify and access new markets. Austrade, as the federal government's trade and investment promotion agency, assists Australian firms to learn about and access international markets through its domestic and extensive global network of offices.
Austrade also works closely with other organisations to assist Indigenous businesses to succeed in export, and offers a financial assistance program for aspiring exporters called the Export Market Development Grants scheme that covers up to 50 per cent of eligible marketing and promotion expenditure.
By tapping into Austrade's activities and networks, Indigenous businesses can access the knowledge, expertise, support and contacts required to prepare to begin exporting or to expand into a new market for the first time.
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade makes sure our consultations on relevant trade and investment issues involve Indigenous businesses. These include invitations to attend regular industry trade briefings, particularly in relation to negotiations on free trade agreements (FTAs) we are pursuing.
Some FTAs include provisions of specific interest to Indigenous peoples, such as intellectual property-related aspects of genetic resources, traditional knowledge, and traditional cultural expressions.
Many of our FTAs also include commitments relating to government procurement policies. For example, a specific exemption negotiated as part of our FTAs allows the Commonwealth Indigenous Procurement Policy to mandate Indigenous-owned business participation in certain tenders, or set participation targets. These exemptions do not contravene Australia's general obligation not to discriminate against foreign suppliers.
In undertaking consultations and making these commitments, we ensure that policies for the economic and social advancement, and health and welfare of Indigenous peoples are considered.
Advocacy on behalf of Indigenous Australian businesses takes place at all levels of government. We advocate through international visits by Australian ministers and senior officials, and at international and multilateral fora. We also deliver support for Indigenous Australian businesses in their engagement with foreign governments.
The 'Team Australia' approach across the portfolio reflects the Australian Government's commitment to expanding the share of Indigenous Australian businesses engaged in international trade and generating economic benefits for our communities.
The Charter is available on the DFAT website: www.dfat.gov.au.
The Foreign Affairs and Trade Portfolio and Responsibilities
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) manages Australia's overall international engagement through Australia's bilateral, regional and multilateral relationships, including trade and investment negotiations and aid programs. www.dfat.gov.au
The Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) assists Australian business by matching Australian capability with overseas demand and identifying new commercial opportunities. Austrade also leads on investment promotion, attraction and facilitation. www.austrade.gov.au
Tourism Australia leads on promotion of Australia as a tourist destination. www.tourism.australia.com

Thank you for your help.

A: From the MATLAB documentation:
"Coefficient values, stored as a table. Coefficients has one row for each coefficient and the following columns" (as in the output of your model). "To obtain any of these columns as a vector, index into the property using dot notation."
Hence, in your example, the coefficients would be found in:
a = mod.Coefficients.Estimate

Garmin StreetPilot for iPhone offers voice-prompted directions—with text-to-speech capability for reading aloud street names—along with a variety of more advanced GPS features.
Garmin on Tuesday announced StreetPilot, its first turn-by-turn navigation app for the iPhone. StreetPilot offers voice-prompted directions—with text-to-speech capability for reading aloud street names—along with a variety of more advanced GPS features.
As with Garmin's standalone GPS devices (remember those?), StreetPilot offers free traffic alerts, lane assistance with realistic previews of upcoming junctions, 2D and 3D views, and speed limit indicators. The application sports current maps of the US and Canada that are fetched from Garmin's servers, and also provides points of interests and local search integration.
The app also integrates with various bits of data on your iPhone: you can control your music, quickly access your friends' addresses, and, of course, take advantage of iOS 4's multitasking.
StreetPilot costs $40 and requires an iPhone 3G or newer, or an iPad with 3G, running iOS 3.0 or later. Unfortunately, it isn't yet available in the UK.
