You may be aware that annual fees for Council allotments have doubled over the last five years from £50 to the current level of £100 for a full plot after FEDAGA agreed a strategy with the City of Edinburgh Council to increase rents in order that allotment provision be improved. The Allotment Service now pays its way and is no longer subsidised.
The Council now have their eye on allotments as a source of extra revenue in the years to come. Currently the total annual rental collected from all Council allotments across the city is £80,355. Most of this is used to pay for the allotment service and maintain existing sites.
The Council are proposing to increase their income from allotments by £150,000. Put simply - allotments are to become a method of revenue generation.
Please take time to read page 81 of their budget proposal (or look at the text reproduced below). You are invited to make your own comments directly to the Council. Do bear in mind that the additional money collected will NOT be spent on allotments. The level of service we get from the Allotment Service will at best remain the same - or get worse as any goodwill to self-manage our own sites evaporates.
FEDAGA will be making representations to the Council and will be asking for your support in the months to come so we don't end up with the highest rents in the UK.
In the meantime, if anyone has any legal experience with unfair rent increases like this please get in touch.
Increase allotment charges to generate additional income of £150,000 per annum. The proposal could also revisit the existing discount regime.
Potential impact on service outcomes and any mitigating actions proposed. This should take into account, where applicable, relevant strategic, service plan or community planning outcomes.
The Council has 29 allotment sites, which have a total of 1,429 plots. There is currently a waiting list of 2,730 people, and the waiting time for a plot is up to 9 years for the most popular sites. The waiting list is growing at a rate of an average 348 people per year. Currently the annual rental for a plot is £100. Some plots are half-size, for which £50 per year is charged. Discounts of 50% are offered to disabled, elderly and those in receipt of benefits.
Therefore to raise an additional £150,000 will require an average increase of £105 per plot/half plot.
However, if concessions are to be retained at existing proportions then the full rental rate would need to be nearly £300 per plot.
The City of Edinburgh Council has recently received some enquires regarding asbestos on allotments. To help answer some general questions we have produced this guidance document with advice on identifying, health risks and what you can do if you find or suspect asbestos is on your allotment.
Asbestos was once a common building material and has found its way onto some allotments, which may or may not be present on your allotment. The kind of asbestos that you are most likely to find on an allotment is asbestos cement (pictured).
Asbestos cement is a mixture of asbestos (usually about 10-15% by weight) which is bound in portland cement or calcium silicate. The majority of asbestos cement products contain only chrysotile (white) asbestos. Uncoated sheets can be identified as light grey/white in colour, hard and inflexible.Asbestos cement was used by the construction industry from the 1950s to November 1999 products include: profile/corrugated sheets, moulded products and flat compressed sheets. They are used for: roofing & roofing components (ridges & ventilation), gutters, flue pipes, wall cladding, soffits & fascia boards, water tanks, fencing/plot boundaries, propagation beds, manure bins, and window/flower boxes. The above indication of asbestos cement products and their uses is not exhaustive.
Why is asbestos a health risk?
It is when asbestos fibres are breathed into the lungs that it presents a risk of developing serious or even fatal diseases such as lung cancer, mesothelioma and asbestosis. This is why asbestos materials and waste has to be dealt with so carefully.
Asbestos cement is often regarded as being lower risk than other forms of asbestos as the fibres are bonded into the cement and are not easily released. However you will be at risk if you wire brush, sand, drill, saw, cut or otherwise damage asbestos cement products.
What should I do if I find or suspect asbestos on my allotment?
If you suspect there is asbestos cement materials on your allotment and the materials are in good condition, not likely to become damaged, then it is safe to leave them as they are. Asbestos cement is very durable and the materials only present a risk of releasing fibres if they are damaged.
However if the materials are in poor condition or you have discovered fly tipped asbestos waste on your plot then please contact the Allotments Officer.
Asbestos cement is sometimes found as fragments buried in the soil. To make asbestos cement found in soil safe, first thoroughly wet it using a watering can; then put the pieces in a stout plastic bag (a builders rubble sack is fine), place this bag in a second, seal and label the bag and leave it in a place on your plot where it will not be disturbed by you or anyone else. Then contact the Allotment Officer giving your site name, your plot number and the location of the bagged asbestos.
Only asbestos cement can be handled by the public. If you find or suspect any other form of asbestos may be present do not try to deal with it yourself. If you are in any doubt contact the Allotment Officer.
Asbestos waste should never be brought onto allotments and should never be mixed with household or other waste. If a skip or other waste removal service is provided at your allotment asbestos should not be put in these facilities. Do not bury asbestos or move it from your plot.

"People like to know where their food comes from. More and more people want to grow their own food. Growing food and working with the environment are healthy and fun things to do.
"It would be good for communities if they had more space for gardening and growing plants. A good way of doing this is to make allotments. Allotments are small areas of land that people can rent from local councils to grow their own food. The current law on allotments is old and hard to understand. People were asked about their views on this law in 2013. The answers helped the Scottish Government shape what the new law should be. It was decided that a new law would be written instead of trying to change the old one.
"The new law will make local councils keep a waiting list for allotments. Local councils will also have to try to provide more allotments if too many people are on the waiting list. Local councils will have to get permission from the Scottish Government before they can sell or change the use of land used for allotments. Local councils will also have to publish an allotments report every year. They will have to say what their plans are to let people grow their own food. They will also have to make clear what people can or cannot do on their allotment."

Bumblebee enthusiasts are being asked to take part in the most high-tech survey of the species ever carried out in the UK.
Photos of bumblebees are identified using a ground-breaking online 'crowdsourcing' technique - where a positive ID is reached when several members of the public allocate it to the same species.
More than 9,000 photos have already been submitted as part of the BeeWatch project which is coordinated by the University of Aberdeen's dot.rural team and the Bumblebee Conservation Trust (BBCT).
Those behind the survey are calling for more volunteers to send in and identify photos and have made it easier than ever before with the launch of a new online training tool which teaches novices how to identify bumblebees.
The online training tool will allow volunteers to gain confidence in bumblebee identification, encouraging them to take part in valuable crowdsourcing.
"This will allow far more pictures of bumblebees to be identified, and thus create a far clearer picture of the distribution of bumblebee populations in the UK," adds Dr van der Wal.
The BeeWatch project was prompted by the decline of the country's bumblebee species as a result of habitat loss and changes in agricultural practices. As pollinators of crops and wildflowers, bumblebees are crucial to the country's ecosystems. The BeeWatch scheme will help address the lack of information about which bumblebee species occur where and how this may be changing over time.
Anyone can register to help identify the bumblebees by signing up to the BeeWatch website.
A bumblebee is officially identified once a sufficient number of volunteers have identified it as the same species. If there is disagreement, the image is checked by a bumblebee expert. So far this process has been extremely accurate.
Users who submit a photograph receive automated feedback once their bumblebee has been categorised, along with additional information about the species in the wider context of the UK, such as how common it is and where it is usually found. They are also encouraged to try their hand at identifying other users' submissions.
The survey has also revealed information that supports a recent study by the University of London regarding the rise in populations of the Tree bumblebee. A species unseen in the British Isles until 2001, the BeeWatch survey has confirmed it is now one of the most common in the country.
Dr Richard Comont, Data Monitoring Officer for BBCT adds: "The Tree bumblebee came to UK shores from France in 2001, and our BeeWatch results so far show that it's now the third most commonly-seen species of bumblebee in the country. At the moment the population is greatest in the south but the first sightings from Scotland have started to come in over the last year or so.

THE COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT (SCOTLAND) BILL has been published and can be found on the Parliament's website along with the accompanying documents: the Policy Memorandum, Explanatory Notes and Delegated Powers Memorandum.
It looks excellent as a framework upon which local authorities can create their own rules for allotments. A quick read over Section 7 has revealed the following points of interest to allotment holders (and aspirant allotment holders). Our comments in italics.
- Each local authority must take reasonable steps to ensure that the number of persons entered in the list maintained...(i.e .the waiting list for allotments) is no more than one half of the total number of allotments owned and leased by the authority.
- A local authority may not dispose of the allotment site or change the use of the allotment site without the consent of the Scottish Ministers.
- As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each reporting year, each local authority must prepare and publish an annual allotments report for its area. Basically the number of Allotments, the size of the waiting list, reasons for not meeting demand, eg. financial.
A person who represents the interests of the tenants of each allotment on an allotment site may make a request to the local authority that owns or leases the site that the authority delegate to the person any of the authority's functions mentioned in subsection 40 (2) in relation to the allotment site. Waiting list included.
Plots handed back in a poor condition... The tenant is liable to pay compensation for the deterioration to the local authority.
It is good to see allotments being treated with such importance by the Scottish Government - well done SAGS and everyone else that contributed.
The Scottish Government goes on to confirm that the Analysis Report and Social Research findings on the responses to the second consultation have been published today and can be found here. This link also directs you to all historical documents relating to the Bill.
The Scottish Government news release relating to the Bill can be found here.
Finally, you may be interested to learn that the Scottish Community Development Centre has launched a new website for communities, funded by the Scottish Government. The website aims to puts communities in the spotlight by connecting people and sharing ideas.
Soils under Britain's allotments are significantly healthier than intensively farmed soils, researchers have found. The study shows that by growing at small-scale in urban areas, it is possible to produce food sustainably without damaging the soil. Working in Leicester, ecologist Dr Jill Edmondson from the University of Sheffield took soil samples from 27 plots on 15 allotment sites across the city. She also sampled soils from local parks, gardens and surrounding agricultural land. As well as being good news for urban soils, the results underline the value of allotments. "An estimated 800 million city dwellers across the world participate in urban food production, which makes a vital contribution to food security. Our results suggest that in order to protect our soils, planning and policy making should promote urban own-growing rather than further intensification of conventional agriculture as a more sustainable way of meeting increasing food demand" Dr Jill Edmondson says.

Suzanne Tamim (سوزان تميم), född 23 september 1977 i Beirut, död 28 juli 2008 i Dubai, var en libanesisk sångerska. 1996 vann hon TV-showen Studio El Fan och hyllades såväl för sin skönhet som sin röst. Den 28 juli 2008 påträffades Tamin mördad i sin lägenhet i Dubai. Den egyptiske affärsmannen Hisham Talaat Moustafa dömdes 2009 till döden genom hängning, men man tvingades, på grund av en teknikalitet, att göra om rättegången; året därpå dömdes han istället till 15 år fängelse.

Tarik Salehs film The Nile Hilton Incident från 2016 bygger på mordet på Suzanne Tamim.

« Reporter Denied Entry into Canada Raja For Lt. Gov.? »
City Council Tue Feb 09 2010
Daley: More Power to the Inspector General!
By Ramsin Canon
Mayor Daley on Monday announced that he was going to introduce an ordinance to the City Council that would grant greater power to the independent Inspector General's office, granting that office power to investigate aldermen, a power currently prohibited to it by law. Good government types are supporting the measure--to wit, Michael Shakman (of Decree fame), Joe Moore (49th)--as is the Inspector General himself. Tribune City Hall reporter Hal Dardick and Todd Lightly have a run down over at Clout Street.
Alderman Berny Stone is opposed to the measure, natch. But the reason he gives is somewhat compelling--that it would give the executive branch a cudgel to use against the legislative branch. Of course, this would be a more believable rationale were it not coming from the Vice Mayor who volunteered to get batted around by Mick Dumke on Chicago Tonight while defending the honor of the parking meter deal, and also had he ever supported any limit on Mayoral dominance of the City Council ever in the history of ever ever.
Damn whippersnappers with their facts!
Larry at Archpundit suggests that increasing the IG's scope could divert his attention from the Mayor, particularly if there is no attendant increase in funding (note: there will probably not be any increase in funding). This is a good point--there's a lot for the IG to look at in the City Council, and with fifty aldermen (even the best of whom likely have a couple two-tree patronage skeletons in their, uh, civic closets) the IG will have lots of low-hanging fruit to go after. And what does the Mayor have to lose? Some convicted Aldermen he gets to handpick replacements for?
Is there an analog at other levels of government of an appointed official with that level of investigative power over a different branch of government? Is Stone right, even if he is being disingenuous? This IG may be independent in spirit, but will the next one be? Should the Mayor's decision to expand the IG's power be taken at face value or presumed malicious, presumed to be a cynical power move?
We should reserve judgment until the text of the ordinance is available. My first read is that the Mayor realizes he is as vulnerable as he has been in the last fifteen years, and in the scope of things, throwing the City Council--of which he has appointed nearly 40%, anyway--under the good government bus is win-win. Aldermen used to doling out favors to build political bases will be curtailed, he wins points from the Lakefront Liberals who regularly hop in and out of his pocket, and he potentially has a new weapon to wield against the City Council in the future.
Or, he just thinks it's the right thing to do.

Gulu Youth Campaigns Against Alcoholism, Gender Based Violence, and Drug Abuse
By Emmanuel Omona
A section of youth under an umbrella, the Galaxy Poets of Northern Uganda have taken up campaigns against alcoholism, Gender based Violence, and Drug abuse.
Their campaigns are to stop the spread of HIV/AIDS, use of drugs such as Marijuana and domestic Gender Based violence in homes.
The campaign took place in Unyama Sub County in Gulu district over the week end.
Atim Sarah Arach the vice chairperson of the group explained that Alcoholism is the leading cause of many challenges in the region.
"After the war, there are many challenges which have been linked by Alcoholism", Atim explained.
She added that, "Alcoholism is linked to Gender base Violence and the spread of HIV/AIDS in the region and we need to stop it through many ways".
The Galaxy Poets of Northern Uganda uses Poems, Music dance and drama to sensitize the community on the dangers of Alcohol.
Justine Toorach, the sub county chairman for Unyama when addressing the youth encouraged the Galaxy poets of Northern Uganda to continue teaching the community.
"There are many people who are now married to alcohol and they need to be sensitized about the dangers of Alcohol. Many of them have acquired HIV/AIDS and left useless in the community", Toorach explained.
Toorach thinks that if the campaign continues, the youth will wake up and become productive.
Apostle Francisco Onen of the Restoration life church in Gulu who was one of the mentors at the function in Unyama challenged the youth to avoid using drugs and Alcohol saying that it will ruin them at a tender age.
"The guns have gone silent but we need to fight Alcoholism with all our strength so that we develop our livelihoods after the over 20 years of LRA Insurgency", Onen said. Article Link…

De stadsbrand van 1492 behoort tot de grootste branden die Middelburg geteisterd hebben.

Bij deze stadsbrand ging grote delen van de stad Middelburg verloren. Bijzonder triest was het afbranden van de Middelburgse abdij. Het grootste gedeelte, waaronder Zeelands oudste bibliotheek, die in deze abdij gevestigd was, brandde af. Kostbare handschriften verteerden in het vuur. Het monnikenwerk van eeuwen ging in enkele uren in rook op. Hiermee gingen ook de geschreven bronnen over de vroege geschiedenis van de stad verloren.

Good morning, dear friends, don't worry, be happy!
Even though school is over for the summer, I am going to write about an interesting event that happened at Solon Elementary School. This news was sent to me awhile ago, and my column wasn't in the paper one week. Anyway, The Solon Masons sponsored the third annual "Bikes for Books" program in the Solon School again this year. This program promoted reading among the K-5 students.
Students read books and filled out a form on each book they read, putting the forms in large envelopes in their classrooms. On June 6th, an assembly to do a drawing for a boy and a girl from each class. Each of those students won a new bike, helmet, and a T-shirt provided by the Masons. The Masons also gave out an extra T-shirt to another lucky winner in each class.
At the assembly, Deputy Mike Pike went over bike safety with the students, especially the importance of wearing a helmet every time you ride.
The Solon Elementary students did a lot of reading in this third year of this great program. Here are the book totals for each grade: Grade K – 70, Grade 1 – 76, Grade 2 – 80, Grade 3 – 184, Grade 4 – 52 and Grade 5 – 61, for a total of 523.
Last year the students read 410 books so we were pleased with the increase in the number of books read this year.
Congratulations to the bike winners and to the top readers in each class who received $15 Walmart gift cards.
We appreciate the support of a community organization like the Masons to promote reading and fitness with our students.
Another interesting bit of news from the Solon School News letter: Students Participated In Career Days: Our district sponsored Career Days for students in grades K – 5 this spring. Three Career Days were held: one for grades K – 1, one for grades 2 – 3, and one for grades 4 – 5 on three Thursdays in May at the Garret Schenck School.
Three Career Days were part of our MELMAC Partnership Grant to introduce students at a young age to career options for their future, and we plan to offer these again next year.
My many thanks to those who send me this information about our children's education. Looking forward to receiving more in the fall.
Another bit of news that I didn't receive in time to get in before: The Anson Academy Class of 1968 is planning its 50th class reunion. They are looking for contact information for the following classmates: Lenora Brown Murray, Eileen Garland, Irene Garland Davis, Deirdre Nile, Frank Peters and Barbara Tucker. Anyone with information on these people, please call Beth Fleming Brown at 474-6609. The next planning meeting is July 9, 6 p. m., at Stewart Public Library, North Anson.
Would lift the edge of care.

Made in Hong Kong (香港製造, Fruit Chan, 1997)
November 26, 2017 by Hayley Scanlon 1 Comment
The Hong Kong of 1997 becomes teenage wasteland for the trio at the centre of Fruit Chan's urgent yet melancholy debut, Made in Hong Kong (香港製造). Made on a shoestring budget using cast off film and starring then unknowns, Chan's New Wave inflected meditation on dead end youth is imbued with the sense of endings – illness, suicide, murder, and despair dominate the lives of these young people who ought to be beginning to live but find their paths constantly blocked. The world is changing, but far from possibility the future holds only confusion and anxiety for those left hanging in constant uncertainty.
Autumn Moon (Sam Lee), our narrator, is a boy fighting to become a man but too afraid to leave his adolescence behind even if he knew how. Living alone with his mother (Doris Chow Yan-Wah) after his father abandoned the family, Moon is a high school drop out with no real job who spends his time playing basketball with the neighbourhood kids and running petty errands for small scale Triad Big Brother Wing (Sang Chan). Already indulging in a hero complex, Moon is friends with and the de facto protector of a young man with learning difficulties, Sylvester (Wenders Li), who has been disowned by his birth family and is constantly picked on, beaten up, and molested by the local high schoolers. Taking Sylvester with him on a job one day, Moon runs into Mrs. Lam (Carol Lam Kit-Fong) whose debt he's supposed to collect but when Sylvester has one of his frequent nosebleeds on seeing Mrs Lam's beautiful daughter, Ping (Neiky Yim Hui-Chi), Mrs. Lam manages to send them packing. Nevertheless, Sylvester and Moon end up becoming friends with Ping and enjoying the last days of Hong Kong together, engaged in a maudlin exploration of teenage mortality pangs.
As Moon puts it in his voice over, everything starts to go wrong when Sylvester picks up a pair of blood stained letters in the street. They belonged to a high school girl, Susan (Amy Tam Ka-Chuen), who we later find out killed herself from the pain of first love. The spectre of Susan haunts the trio of teens left behind who remain morbidly fascinated with her fate yet also afraid and anxious. Together they pledge to investigate her death and return the letters to their rightful owners as, one assumes, Susan would have wanted. Even so, when they finally track down the recipient of the first letter, the man Susan gave her life for, he barely looks at it and tears her carefully crafted words of heartbreak into a thousand pieces, scattering them to the wind unread.
In investigating Susan's tragic love affair, Moon and Ping begin to fall in love but Ping too already has the grim spectre of death around her. Seriously ill, Ping is at constant risk if she can't get a kidney transplant but the list is long and she's running out of time. Moon wants to be the hero Ping thinks he is, but he's powerless in the face of such a faceless threat. He makes two decisions – one, to get the money to pay her debt, and two to go on the organ donor's register so that if anything happens to him, Ping might get his kidney, struggling to do something even if it won't really help.
Powerlessness is the force defines Moon's life as he adopts a kind of breezy passivity to mask the fact that he has no real agency. He says he doesn't want to join the Triads full-time because he values his independence, prefers making his own decisions, and hates taking orders but he rarely makes decisions of his own and when he does they tend not to be good ones. Moon drifts into a life of petty gangsterism partly out of a lack of other options, and partly out of laziness. Abandoned by his father and then later by his mother too, Moon's only real source of guidance is the minor Triad boss Big Brother Wing who, unlike his mother, at least pretends to trust and respect him. Getting hold of a gun, Moon dances around like some movie vigilante drunk on power and possibility but once again fails in the hero stakes when a friend comes to him in desperate need for help but he's so busy playing the cool dude alone in his apartment that he doesn't even hear him over the music.
When it comes to pulling a trigger, Moon can't do it, no matter how many times he's visualised the moment and seen himself making the precision kill like an ice cold hitman in a stylish thriller. Moon's illusion of his heroic righteousness crumbles. He couldn't save his friends, has been rejected by his family, and has lost all hope for a meaningful future. As if to underline the hopelessness and fatalism of his times, Fruit Chan ends on a radio broadcast which instructs the lister to say the same thing again, only this time in Mandarin – the language of the future. Moon, Sylvester, and Ping are all cast adrift in this dying world, abandoned by parental figures and left to face their uncertain futures all alone. As a portrait of youthful alienation and despair, Made in Hong is a timeless parable in which an indifferent society eats its young, but it's also the story of a Hong Kong Holden Caulfield standing in for his nation as they both find themselves approaching an unbreachable threshold with no bridge in sight.

News—Australia: Unnecessary Immigration Neutralizes Economic Stimulus; The Netherlands: High Immigration Undermines Successful Integration; The U.S. : Joe Legal vs. Jose Illegal
NEWS — AUSTRALIA : UNNECESSARY IMMIGRATION NEUTRALIZES ECONOMIC STIMULUS ; THE NETHERLANDS : LARGE-SCALE IMMIGRATION UNDERMINES SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATION ; U.S. : A SHORT TALE OF JOE LEGAL VS JOSE ILLEGAL
These items should make Canadians ask the following questions:
(1) Does immigration neutralize Canada's $40 Billion economic stimulus? According to one study, remember that, in 2002 alone, the total bill for the group of immigrants who arrived between 1990 and 2002 was $18.3 Billion. To put this figure in perspective, this amount was more than what the federal government spent on health care in that year for all of Canada. Moreover, total federal programme spending in 2000/2001 was $116 Billion. In other words, high immigration levels are not an economic triviality. Allowing around 450,000 regular and temporary immigrants per year in a time of rising unemployment is clearly an economic depressant. How big a shock do all of our federal parties and their immigration supporters need before they start thinking about this?
(2) How much does high immigration undermine successful integration? Ethnic colonies in different parts of Canada should be enough evidence of future dis-integration and division in Canada.
(3) How much does failure to count and to remove illegals affect Canada? Our government, which has done almost nothing to calculate the number of illegals in Canada, recently announced that biometric tracking of visa holders would be in effect by 2013. Some kind of tracking should have been done many years ago. Why was nothing done and why does Canada have to wait until 2013?

AUSTRALIA : UNNECESSARY IMMIGRATION NEUTRALIZES ECONOMIC STIMULUS
A recent study by researchers at Australia's Monash University found that the Australian government's $42 Billion economic stimulus will be neutralized by Australia's unjustified and unnecessary high immigration levels. The stimulus is intended to protect Australian workers and their jobs.
Immigration to Australia will mean a total of around 140,000 new job seekers each year—at a time when the government itself is projecting no employment growth. A major reason for the 140,000 figure is that employer-sponsored visas to immigrants are inadequately regulated. Australian employers do not have to prove that Australian workers are unavailable for jobs. Also, Australian employers do not have to pay immigrants as much as they pay Australian workers. As a result, employers are abusing the program.
The Monash University researchers recommended the following:
(1) Priority should be given to how Australian training and mobility incentives can help Australian workers relocate to areas of skill shortages, not to removing obstacles to immigrant recruitment.
(2) Immigration should be strictly limited to those skills where there is a substantiated case that the skill cannot be obtained from within Australia.
(3) The range of occupations eligible for skilled immigration should be curtailed, particularly for employer-sponsored visas.
(4) Employers should have to provide proof that Australians are not available for the jobs in question.
The report was written by Bob Birrell, Ernest Healy and Bob Kinnaird. It is titled , "Immigration And The Nation Building and Jobs Plan": CPUR Bulletin, Centre for Population and Urban Research, Monash University, Melbourne, 2009. It is available at http://arts.monash.edu.au/cpur/index.php
LARGE-SCALE IMMIGRATION UNDERMINES SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATION
The Netherlands More people entered the Netherlands than left the country in 2008 for the first time in six years, reports Immigration Minister Eberhard van der Laan.
A record number of 140,000 migrants were recorded last year, and are made up mainly of 'import brides' and eastern European immigrants. The number of 'import brides' increased by 32 percent to 15,330 and come mainly from Turkey and Morocco.
In the first six months of 2008, the population increased by almost 30,000.
The latest figures indicate a reverse in the prevailing migration pattern, which saw more emigrants than immigrants in the country since 2003.
The ministry said immigrants have found ways to circumvent the rules by, for instance, first bringing a partner to another EU country.
And the Netherlands cannot possibly integrate all these newcomers, said Van der Laan.
De Telegraaf reports Van der Laan wants to end the inflow of unskilled marriage candidates because it negates all the energy and money invested in integration.
The ministers tough stance was cheered by the Christian Democrats and opposition conservative VVD party who hope that the cabinet would finally see the relationship between large-scale immigration and unsuccessful integration.

Q: jQuery Tabs Under IE7 Selected State I'm using jQuery to create a load of tabs for a web application.  I've used just the basic examples provided from here without any luck so far.  The tab content works, the theme displays correctly, however when I click on a tab the state of the tab doesn't changed.  This application has to work under IE7, any other browser doesn't matter whatsoever (I may just add that I'm not an IE7 user, I'm an avid Firefox user)

Nunc tincidunt

Proin dolor

Tab one content goes here.

Tab1 one content goes here.

Following this is the CSS provided by jQuery's ThemeRoller so my includes look like the following:
<link href="/intranet/common/stylesheets/jquery-ui/ui.all.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

I'm then enabling the tabs using the following:

As I say, the tab content works, everything is themed, but once I "click" on a tab, the state of the tab doesn't change to being the active one.  The ThemeRoller works in IE7, but my page doesn't.  I have no idea where I'm going wrong, and I've played around with it for a couple of hours at least trying to get it working.
Any ideas?

A: Consider upgrading to the latest version of jQuery (1.3). I've tested your code with an old css (flora) for 1.2.6 and it works. With the ThemeRoller I've just downloaded it doesn't work neither for Firefox or IE.
Also try using the latest version of jquery-ui. The safest bet is to try the javascript files and the css files and images directly from the ThemeRoller download.

Power user conference to highlight operational energy innovation
By atesmeh | April 3, 2012
Supplying tactical electric power to the battlefield in a reliable, energy-efficient way is a key goal of the Department of Defense's Project Manager Mobile Electric Power and the focus of an upcoming Users' Conference.
Held by Project Manager Mobile Electric Power, or PM MEP, the conference is intended to be an open forum, addressing tactical electric power, known as TEP, topics and solutions. The event comes as the military is increasing its efforts to cut fuel consumption, leverage alternative energy sources and improve operational energy efficiencies.
Paul Richard, deputy project manager for PM MEP, which supplies tactical electric power solutions, training and support to the different service branches, called the conference a one-stop shop for resolving power issues for the tactical battlefield.
"For Soldiers the conference is a great place to learn about the newest equipment that's out there, and it's a chance to provide input and feedback to the organizations that develop the requirements and the systems that they'll ultimately use," said Richard.
Feedback is key, and the conference is geared toward users and meeting their needs, Richard said.
"We want Soldiers to know that if they're having problems or dealing with issues, they're not alone," he said. "Come back and talk with us and give us that feedback to help shape future requirements and generate solutions that will meet their operational needs."
Registration is already underway for the 5th Annual Power User Conference 2012, which will take place May 8-10 at the Shades of Green Armed Forces Recreation Center in Orlando, Fla. The conference will explore current and future energy solutions through a series of discussions, presentations and breakout sessions, all designed to connect Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines with development and industry experts and address service-unique issues.
Personnel representing the Combat Developer, Materiel Developer, Sustainment Commands and Headquarters offices from each service will attend to address TEP issues including requirements generation, production, fielding and sustainment of hardware.
Breakout sessions based on service feedback will provide information on a variety of TEP topics, products and users.
The microgrid breakout session will look at the concept of networked generators operating under automated control, including recent test results and potential safety issues related to remote operation and starting, for both microgrid and hybrid applications.
The AutoDise breakout session will teach Soldiers how to use an automated software system to help them develop power distribution grids for any operational scenario they may encounter on the battlefield.
Shrinking the military's operational energy footprint on the battlefield not only makes fiscal sense, but also saves lives, officials said. Consuming less fuel on the battlefield requires fewer supply convoys — a frequent target for roadside bombs and enemy attacks.
"If you're an Army at war, the last thing you want to do is add to the risk that the Soldier takes," Secretary of the Army John McHugh said while on a recent visit to the Institute for Soldier Nanotechnologies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. "For every 44 convoys we put on the road in Afghanistan, we lose one Soldier. Anything we can do to take a convoy off the road is a good (thing)."
PM MEP is contributing to that effort by developing and fielding the next generation of Department of Defense standard generators, known as the Advanced Medium Mobile Power Sources, or AMMPS, family. These generators are 21 percent more fuel-efficient than the systems currently in theater, with greater reliability and a 10 percent reduction in size and weight. Over the next 12 months the Army expects to deploy approximately 1,600 AMMPS to Afghanistan.
"All those savings also increase the units' combat effectiveness by allowing Soldiers to dedicate more of their time to combat operations instead of support to maintain their tactical power," said Richard.
Several sizes of AMMPS will be displayed at the conference, allowing Soldiers an up-close look and an opportunity to get familiar with the new technology, which is schedule to start fielding in May with the 4th Infantry Division located at Fort Carson, Colo.
Other equipment on display includes solar tents, Improved Environmental Control Units, GREENS solar panel network and the Load Demand Start Stop microgrid system.
Over the past five years the conference has increased its focus on the Soldier and generated greater participation from all Services.
"'I think it's outstanding for the power career field," said Air Force Staff Sgt. Daniel Dinsmore, who attended the conference in 2011. "It's good to get all the branches here."
Army Chief Warrant Officer Leonardo Bereton said the 2011 user conference was "very well managed, organized and educational."
"The fact that you're dealing with different joint services (adds to) the importance," he said.
PM MEP will also use the conference to recognize outstanding power professionals from all Services. For information on award nominations, as well as the conference agenda and how to register, visit www.peoc3t.army.mil/mep/

Donovan Chapman (born in Farmerville, Louisiana) is an American country music artist. he has recorded two studio albums: one on Curb Records, and one on Category 5 Records. He has also charted four singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, with his highest being the No. 42-peaking "House Like That" in late 2006-early 2007.
Chapman was raised in Farmerville, Louisiana. His mother, a native of Hawaii, exposed him to Hawaiian music at an early age, and he soon learned to play the ukulele.
At age seventeen, Chapman enlisted in the United States Air Force. He spent eleven years in the Air Force, serving for five years in U.S. Air Force Security Forces and six years as a Pararescueman. During his leave time, he met Mike Curb, head of the Curb Records label, and was soon signed to the label.
Chapman's first single, "There Is No War", was released in 2003. The single was dedicated to families of American soldiers who had died overseas. Chapman recorded two albums for Curb Records, shortly before returning to duty in Afghanistan. In the same time, Chapman released a self titled EP, followed by his first full album, I Am America.
After returning to the United States, he signed to Category 5 Records. His first single for Category 5, "House Like That", was released in late 2006. A second single, "All I Need", was released in 2007, shortly before Chapman terminated his relationship with Category 5 Records. "House Like That" was produced by Billy Joe Walker, Jr.

Have you ever heard of shrub? Have you ever had it before? Do you like vinegar? Are you an old soul? Is your grandmother your idol? Do you have an absurdly and unnecessary amount of fresh fruit? These are all good questions to ask oneself before engaging in this recipe today.
Shrub, if you don't know, is a drinking vinegar. What's that? Okay, let me be more specific. Shrub is generally equal parts fruit, sugar, and vinegar. The fruit is muddled with the sugar and let to rest for a day or two, then the fruit is removed and the vinegar is added. It's bottled and stored in the fridge for at least one week and up to half a year. The concoction is diluted in water or, if you choose, made into a cocktail.
My grandparents always made a raspberry shrub. They had vast rows upon rows of huge, plump raspberries and one way to use the excess berries was to make shrub. It's the taste of my childhood summers, their raspberry shrub.
I decided to make my shrub with rhubarb and lavender because, well, I have a ton of the stuff and not so much in the way of raspberries. The rhubarb is delightfully tart in this sugary, sour shrub and the lavender lends a summery, floral essence. This shrub has been sitting in my fridge for two weeks in the flip-top bottles, and is just about perfect. As it sits in the fridge, the vinegar mellows and the flavors really meld together.
My grandmother always said vinegar "cleans out your insides" and would often give us a shot of raw apple cider vinegar with water to choke down. This is much better.
Notes: As the shrub sits in the fridge, the vinegar will mellow and the flavors really meld together. Any fruit can be used in place of the rhubarb. Don't throw away the leftover sugared fruit! I bag it and freeze it, then use it in smoothies or a pie. Waste not, want not!
Combine the rhubarb, lavender, and sugar in a large bowl. Mix together with your hands, crushing the rhubarb between your fingers and really incorporating the sugar until it's a wet mess. This is important. It will take about 5 minutes. There shouldn't be any dry sugar left.
Cover the bowl and place in the fridge for 24-48 hours. After a time, the rhubarb should be surrounded by a watery liquid and bubbles should start to form.
Now, strain the rhubarb pressing into a mesh sieve to extract all the juices. There'll be a lot of sugar leftover in the bowl. Try to keep as much of it as possible. Add back the rhubarb juice and stir into the sugar. Now, stir in the vinegar.
Transfer to bottles and store in the fridge for at least one week and up to half a year. Dilute to taste in water, or cocktails. And with ice, always with ice. Crushed if possible. I use about a 1 part shrub to 5 parts water.
Neanderthals were "mainly vegetarian." Surprise! Inform yourself and read the rest of the article, here. So go Paleo! Which would be mainly vegetarian.
I have a different blueberry muffin recipe on Produce On Parade. You can see it here. But I didn't do my homework well enough. Move aside old blueberry muffins because these muffins will top any other blueberry muffin you've ever have tried. Yes, I am making that claim. I will never look for a different base recipe for blueberry muffins. They are that good. I of course "veganized", and "snobbified" this recipe from Cook's Illustrated. If you don't know about Cook's Illustrated then you better go find out about here. I can pretty much credit everything I've ever learned about how to cook well, to my parents and Cook's Illustrated. Cook's Illustrated is a magazine. They also have a site online as well as podcasts! Growing up, my grandparents as well as my parents subscribed to the magazine and I looked forward to it every month. I loved the always changing watercolor illustrations of various fruits and vegetables that was on the back cover. Yet, my favorite part of the magazine was the "Taste Test" part, where they ranked various canned/boxed or jarred food items by taste and affordability. I also loved the "What Is It?" article. Readers send in photos of some random and obscure kitchen gadgets that they found in their great grandmother's kitchen and they are explained in detail what they are and what they were used for. In regards to the images in the magazine, most are all sketched as opposed to actual photos which is really cool. As somewhat of an artist myself, I always cherished that. Though, I don't get the magazines anymore because I use the online subscription.
Don't know the difference between quinoa and couscous? Does chopping an onion take more than 5 minutes? If you're new to cooking, or just looking to better your chef skills, Cooks Illustrated is where to get your start. They even have an online "cooking school". Take a look at their site to see recipes, equipment reviews (which I love!), and taste tests. America's Test Kitchen is under the same umbrella as Cook's Illustrated as well as Cook's Country and they're one of my favorite shows on television. If you've never checked out the show, there's a link to when they air on TV, here. I feel I should note that I am in no way affiliated with them, though I wish I was...I just really think there's a lot to learn from them!
Okay, so let's remember this muffin recipe was inspired by them. They are divine. I made these for our family's August birthday party. Todd as well as my Grandma, Grandpa, Dad and Uncle all have August birthdays so we just have one big celebration towards the end of the month. I will tell you that there was German chocolate (the standard) as well as red velvet cake at the party, but my little brother only wanted the muffins. He kept asking me, "Is it okay if I have another?" I think he had three or four! There are no words to describe how perfect these muffins are.
There are no words to describe how perfect these muffins are. They are so incredibly moist and fluffy. The wild blueberries lend a robust tartness, the lavender is floral and comforting and the sugar sprinkled on top gives a nice, sweet crunch. I don't know if I'll be able to resist making them again this weekend.
Preheat oven to 350 F and spray a regular 12 muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Begin by placing the ground flaxseed in a small bowl and whisking in the cold water. Place in the fridge and let rest until called for.
In a electric stand mixer bowl or a large bowl add the flax egg and the sugar and whisk vigorously for about 1 minute. Next, add the butter and whisk until combined. Then add the vanilla, and finally add the sour cream in two steps, mixing only to combine.
Add the frozen blueberries as well as the lavender to the dry mixture, and toss to coat.
Then, gently fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture until they're just combined. Be very cautious not to overmix. There may even be some sprays of flour and that's okay. The batter should be very thick.
Drop an even amount of dough into the muffin pan. Do not flatten or arrange the batter and do not overfill. Bake at 350 F for about 30 minutes. Rotate the pan at the 15 minute mark.
The muffins should be somewhat firm and a light golden brown around the edges at 30 minutes.
Once the muffins are done baking, release them onto a wire cooling rack and stand them up right. Sprinkle with sugar if you like, and allow them to cool for 5 minutes. Store in an airtight container.

The human body functions best when proper posture and alignment is maintained. This leaves the body free to move and distribute weight evenly, allowing the spine, muscles, and joints to work together properly. If you suspect you have improper postural alignment, a chiropractor in Raleigh, NC should be consulted to perform an accurate assessment.
When posture is out of line, pain can result and injury is more likely. This is due to the fact that the body will compensate for misalignment, putting too much pressure in certain areas. Chiropractic posture assessments are three dimensional assessments of an individual's posture in both a standing and squatting position that determines weak points and possible areas of spinal or vertebral degeneration. Signs of improper postural and vertebral alignment include back pain, particularly in the lower back, hunched or rounded shoulders, a rounded upper back, an arched lower back, and a forward head.
Genetics, stress, excessive weight, weakened muscles, footwear, and other things can contribute to poor posture and postural misalignment. Proper posture is about more than outward appearance. With proper posture and alignment, bones and joints work together properly, reducing the stress placed on ligaments. Energy is conserved preventing muscle strain. Proper posture has also been shown to reduce feelings of depression, improve digestive health, and promote confidence levels while reducing stress.
At Ideal Lifestyle Advocates in Raleigh, NC, our primary concern is proper patient care, so we always begin any assessment by asking you pertinent questions about your health. A chiropractor will then meet with you to perform the posture assessment. Following posture assessments, a member of our staff will meet with you to discuss the results. We will be there to answer any questions you may have as well as discuss the recommended course of treatment. Our goal is to provide a painless treatment that restores proper movement to the spine and promotes good posture.
If you have noticeable effects from posture such as curved lower back or hunched upper back or shoulders, or if you have pain in your back that you suspect is from improper posture, contact Ideal Lifestyle Advocates in Raleigh, NC to discuss chiropractic posture assessments today. You can reach us by calling 919- 830-6472 or by filling out a form online. More than just chiropractors, we are your Ideal Lifestyle Advocates for optimal health.

A Carved White Marble Figure of a Gentlemen by Randolph Rogers
Fine 19th century white carved marble bust of a gentleman with mustache wearing a Toga.

Randolph John Rogers (July 6, 1825, Waterloo, New York – January 15, 1892, Rome, Italy) was an American Neoclassical sculptor. An expatriate who lived most of his life in Italy, his works ranged from popular subjects to major commissions, including the Columbus Doors at the U.S. Capitol and American Civil War monuments. Born in Waterloo, New York, he spent most of his childhood in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He developed an interest in wood cuts and wood engraving, and moved to New York City about 1847, but was unsuccessful in finding employment as an engraver. While working as a clerk in a dry-goods store, his employers discovered his native talent as a sculptor and provided funds for him to travel to Italy. He began study in Florence in 1848, where he studied briefly under Lorenzo Bartolini. He then opened a studio in Rome in 1851. He resided in that city until his death in 1892.
He began his career carving statues of children and portrait busts of tourists. He was not happy working with marble consequently all his marble statues were copied in his studio by Italian artisans under his supervision, from an original produced by him in another material. This also enabled him to profit from his popular works. His first large-scale work was Ruth Gleaning (1853), based on a figure in the Old Testament. It proved extremely popular, and up to 20 marble replicas were produced by his studio. His next large-scale work was Nydia, the Blind Flower Girl of Pompeii (1853-1854), based on a character in Edward Bulwer-Lytton's best-selling novel, The Last Days of Pompeii. It proved even more popular, and his studio produced at least 77 marble replicas.


The Executive Council functions as the board of directors for the NALC, providing leadership for the church between Convocations.
The 2011 NALC Convocation, held Aug. 11-12 in Hilliard, Ohio, elected four lay people and four clergy to staggered terms of one to four years. Future terms will be staggered so that one pastor and one lay person will be elected at each annual Convocation to four-year terms.
Served in congregation as president, vice president, treasurer, property chairman.
At ELCA synod level, served on synod council and as vice president of the West Virginia-Western Maryland Synod.
At ELCA churchwide, served on Global Mission Committee. In NALC, served on Executive Council.
What spiritual gifts and skills has God given you to bless this ministry?
He has given me the gifts of leadership, teaching, and listening which will enable me to contribute faithfully to this ministry.
List a favorite Scripture verse and tell why it has meaning for you.
I would rather meet a she bear robbed of her cubs, than a fool busy with a stupid project.
Occupation: Part-time Parish Administrator at Our Saviour's Lutheran Church, Tyler, Texas.
Retired from management at Johnson Space Center (JSC), NASA. My retirement position from JSC/NASA was as the Manager for the Institutional Business Offices (Flight Crew Operations, Center Operations, Information Technology, Safety/ Reliability/Quality Assurance, and other areas).
I am both a member and the recording secretary of the provisional NALC Executive Council.
I have been an adult Sunday school teacher (multiple years) and am currently conducting Bible Studies at Our Saviour's.
I serve in a variety of lay worship ministries: chalice bearer, lay ministry coordinator, usher, and lector. At a former church I was the lay person in charge of training for all lay worship service positions and for writing and maintaining the service manuals for each position.
At two former churches, I coordinated all the women's ministries, and, until my job as Parish Administrator, was an active member of the women's ministries at Our Saviour's.
I am a former altar guild directoress and continue to serve as both a team leader and a member of the altar guild.
In addition, as the Parish Administrator at Our Saviour's, I am actively involved in nearly all aspects of church administration.
I have the skills of organization and management, and the gifts of compassion, patience, and humor.
John 10:27-30. I love this because the promise is so explicit: I am His sheep; I am held; I am secure; and nothing can take me from Jesus' hand. And, as He is one with the Father, nothing can take me from the Father's hand.
I served as a leader for New Jerusalem's Senior Youth for nearly 10 years. I helped organize their first (now, annual) mission trip seven years ago, teaching VBS to children at the Boys & Girls Club in Loris, S.C. I teach the teen's Sunday School class, and plan the early (indoor) worship at New Jerusalem. I co-chair New Jerusalem's Fellowship Ministry and have served on the Youth & Family, Learning, and Worship Ministries. I am the current secretary and a past president of New Jerusalem Lutheran Women. I serve on the Steering Committee of Lutheran CORE—North Carolina. For the past 18 months, I have served on the Congregational Life and Evangelism Team (formerly Congregational Life and Pastoral Support committee) of Lutheran CORE and currently serve on the provisional Executive Council for the North American Lutheran Church.
I have been blessed with the ability to teach and communicate with people through the written word. If I had to pinpoint a spiritual gift, I would say that I have the gift of hospitality, in that I enjoy the challenge of helping people feel welcome and comfortable in many situations. I crave neither attention nor glory for myself but instead point people to the One who deserves all the glory and praise, our Father in heaven.
Jeremiah 29:11: "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." What a wonderful promise! That Scripture has spoken to me many times during my life — good times and bad. To be reminded of God's perfect will is always comforting for me.
I have served for the past year as treasurer and provisional member of the Executive Council of the NALC. Previously I served as Vice Chairman (2010) and a member of the Steering Committee (2006-2010) of Lutheran CORE. I have also served as a member of a congregation council and two call committees. Finally, I serve as a member of the Board of Directors of an endowment fund for a Lutheran seminary in Russia.
I believe I have strong communication skills, good judgment, and an ability to work effectively in groups and teams. I also believe that I have certain leadership skills, an ability to "look down the field" and anticipate both opportunities and challenges. With regard to my present role as treasurer, I have spent 20 years in the financial services industry, understand accounting, financial management and investment management.
If there is one thing I have seen firsthand over the past few years in Lutheran CORE and now in the NALC, it is the truth of this verse. Everywhere I have traveled, I have visited vibrant and growing congregations which simply are preaching the clear word (and Word!) of God, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, that word is not returning to them empty. I pray that our young church will keep the truth of God's promise in this verse central in our ministry.
46 years of Word and Sacrament ministry.
30 years of Army Chaplain ministry.
Lutheran CORE Steering Committee, 2006-2010.
North American Lutheran Church Executive Council, 2010-2011.
Love for the Lord Jesus Christ and His Church.
Loyal and a team player, work well with others.
"Don't worry about anything, instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank Him for all that He has done" — Philippians 4:6 NLT. Keeps me focused in my private life and in my life as a pastor.
From 1976-1995 I served in the LCA and ELCA in many capacities including serving as keynote speaker at many Church Growth / Evangelism conferences both within the ELCA and among the Brethren and the Disciples. I was one of the LCA's Pastor/Evangelists and one of the ELCA's Partners in Evangelism. I was twice elected to the Texas Louisiana Synod Council (LCA) as clergy delegate at large, and I served many years on that synod's Committee on Reference and Council. For several years I organized and led the Jesus is Lord Conference for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Synod of the ELCA and was (for two years) a section leader in Homiletics for the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia. I also served on the Southeastern Pennsylvania Synod's Committee on Reference and Council.
With my very public opposition to the Proposed First Draft of the Social Statement on Human Sexuality in 1993, I became persona non grata within the Southeastern Pennsylvania Synod of the ELCA — and remained so until 2010, when our congregation became one of the 18 pioneer congregations at the organizing of the NALC in August 2010. I was asked to serve a one-year provisional term on Synod Council and have been grateful to be allowed to help in this way.
God has given me gifts in organization, preaching, and evangelism. The greatest gift God has given me has been my husband Michael Tavella. We have been married since 1973 and in ministry together since 1976. We have served together in two congregations: St. Andrew Lutheran Church, Hurst, Texas (1976-1987) and Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Abington, Pa. (1987-present).
Psalm 18:1-3: I will love you, O Lord my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I will call upon the Lord, who in worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.
This has meaning for me because God has proven it to be true over and over in my life. It is my prayer for the North American Lutheran Church that this church might always point to the God who fights for her, admonishes her, and cherishes her as His pearl of great price. It is my prayer for the North American Lutheran Church that this church might always regard God as a deity to be loved and obeyed, that we might always invite others into a relationship with this God who came to us in Jesus Christ and comes to us still by the power of His Holy Spirit. It is my prayer that the North American Lutheran Church might be used by God in a way that brings glory to His Holy Name.

I received a strong biblical and catechetical training in my youth. I have served 32 years of ordained ministry, experiencing both congregational cooperation and conflict. I have served on synod council and committees. I have experience working with colleagues (interns and associates). Traveling to Ethiopia has broadened my experience of the global church. Serving on the Executive Committee and as a dean of the NALC has helped me to know how we function and what concerns congregations have.
I have a strong foundation on the Word of God as understood from a Lutheran perspective. I enjoy teaching the Bible. The rich liturgical heritage of public worship and private prayer strengthens me. God has granted me the gift of patience. I can listen with empathy and understanding of people's experiences and positions. I work collaboratively and encourage others in their ministry.
Teaching — instructing others in the Bible and in a logical and systematic way for understanding and growth.
Matthew 5:16, "In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven." These words are spoken at every baptism as a call to the person being baptized, and a reminder for those who hear these words, that we are a priesthood of all believers, glorifying God in our words and actions so that we may point people to Christ. We are not the light, but we reflect the light of Christ so that others may know Him as Lord and Savior.

Black walnut is one of America's most highly prized tree species. Its natural range extends throughout the central and eastern parts of the United States and into southern Ontario. However, it is commercially significant primarily in the central part of its range. It typically grows as scattered individuals or in small groups mixed with a wide variety of other hardwoods. Pure stands of black walnut are rare, but can occur as small groves at the edge of a forest. Young black walnut trees are intolerant of shade and are seldom found under dense canopies of trees. Because of heavy use and wasteful cutting over many years, choice black walnut trees are scarce. Demand remains high however, with expanding world markets that drive up prices for the best logs. The promise of high prices has stimulated planting, culture, and management of walnut. this, in turn, has created a demand by walnut growers and land managers for information to conduct these activities. Supplementing existing reference materials, the Walnut Notes provide information about many topics-information derived from previous publications and research. They contain management advice in an easily applied form, written exclusively for walnut growers. When using the Notes, keep in mind that they contain general guidelines; you may need to adapt them at times to your local conditions.

The massacre at El Mozote, 40 years later

El Salvador marks the 40th anniversary this weekend of one of the worst massacres in Latin American history, amid renewed allegations that a U.S. military adviser witnessed the killings and fears that the related trial of Salvadoran military will be left by the wayside.
Why it matters: Nearly one thousand unarmed civilians, half of them children, were killed in El Mozote and nearby towns in 1981 by a Salvadoran army unit that had been trained by U.S. forces.
It remains the largest single state massacre in the modern history of the Americas, perpetrated during a period marked by civil wars and dictatorships.
The intrigue: A Stanford University professor testified during the trial earlier this year that a U.S. Army sergeant major witnessed the massacre.
Bruce Hazelwood, a military advisor in El Salvador who is now retired, denies the allegations. He told Vice News "there is no recollection on my part of ever speaking with anyone about the incident, official or unofficial."
Axios' attempts to reach Hazelwood were unsuccessful.
The U.S. Army has not responded to requests for comment.
Context: The trial has had several inconsistent starts for decades. A year after the 1992 peace agreements ended the Salvadoran civil war, the country's congress declared an amnesty and the case was archived.
The Salvadoran Supreme Court voided the amnesty law in 2016, and the El Mozote trial was the first to restart.
What's next: The trial's future is uncertain, however. The presiding judge in the five-year-old trial was forced to retire in September, and no replacement has been formally named.
Jorge Guzmán Urquilla, 61, had to leave the bench after a law proposed by President Nayib Bukele was passed that set 60 as the age limit for all judges and prosecutors. About 200 left their posts as a result.
Supreme Court justice Óscar López has suggested the El Mozote trial might have to restart from the beginning, once a new judge is brought in.

While Big Tech zips, regulators slog
In the year it took the Federal Trade Commission to get a judge to green-light its antitrust suit against Facebook this week, Facebook has already changed its name and shifted its focus.
Why it matters: Tech firms and Beltway regulators not only see issues differently but also operate on wildly different scales of time — with DC's glacial pace often leaving it at a deep disadvantage in its quest to limit tech giants' power.
