No. 16 Colorado faces Arizona with Pac-12 South lead
AP Photo/Rick Scuteri, File
In this Oct. 15, 2016, file photo, Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez shouts during the second half of the team's NCAA college football game against Southern California in Tucson, Ariz. "They've (Colorado) stayed healthy, they've played hard, they're well-coached and they have a lot of confidence right now," Rodriguez said. "They're playing really good football and we'll get a really good team coming here on Saturday night."

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — When Arizona and Colorado last met a year ago in Boulder, the Wildcats were playing well and the Buffaloes were laboring through an injury-riddled season.
As they head into Saturday night's game in the desert, the roles have reversed.
Arizona has been decimated by injuries, particularly in the offensive backfield, has yet to win in the Pac-12 and will not be going to a bowl game for the first time since 2011.
No. 16 Colorado is relatively healthy, already bowl-eligible and has plenty to play for, leading No. 13 Utah by a game in the Pac-12 South.
"I do think our guys have been in that situation before," Colorado coach Mike MacIntyre said of Arizona's struggles. "They understand everybody's going to show up to play. It doesn't matter what everybody else says or what everyone's saying in the classroom. They've been in that exact same situation. Hopefully they feed off that memory."
Colorado (7-2, 5-1) has been one of the biggest surprises of the college football season.
The Buffaloes were picked to finish last in the Pac-12 South this year after winning five Pac-12 games in five seasons since joining the conference, including a 1-8 record in 2015.
Colorado is already bowl-eligible for the first time since 2007 after wins against Arizona State, Oregon, Stanford and UCLA, teams the Buffaloes were a combined 0-18 against prior to this season.
Colorado moved up to No. 12 in the second College Football Playoff rankings and can take the Pac-12 South if it wins the final three games.
"They've stayed healthy, they've played hard, they're well-coached and they have a lot of confidence right now," Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said. "They're playing really good football and we'll get a really good team coming here on Saturday night."
Rodriguez's team has struggled.
A year ago, the Wildcats were hit hard by injuries at the linebacker spot. This season it's been the offensive backfield.
Arizona (2-7, 0-6) has its top quarterbacks, Anu Solomon and Brandon Dawkins, healthy again, but had to use a third-string tight end at quarterback at one point. The running back depth got so bad that Samajie Grant, a midseason convert from wide receiver, has become the starter.
The Wildcats will not become bowl-eligible for the first time since 2011 and are coming off a 69-7 shellacking by Washington State.
"There's no excuse for that poor performance," Rodriguez said. "You have to look at it and learn from it. There's a lot of young guys that are playing that need to learn from it."
A few more things to look for when Colorado plays at Arizona on Saturday night:
ARIZONA RUN GAME: The Wildcats have racked up more than 1,400 yards rushing in their past four games combined against Colorado. They'll have a tough time keeping up that pace on Saturday. Rodriguez said this week that Nick Wilson, Arizona's main running back to start the season, likely won't play the rest of the year due to his latest injury. Arizona was already thin at running back and while Grant has been solid after switching positions, the Wildcats may have a hard time running the ball against the Buffaloes.
LIUFAU'S TASK: Colorado quarterback Sefo Liufau was banged up against UCLA last week and has struggled to get Colorado's offense running at full speed the past two games. He'll have a chance to break the Buffaloes and himself out of that funk this week against Arizona. The Wildcats have the nation's 117th-ranked overall defense and are giving up 272 yards passing per game, 111th in the FBS.
COLORADO'S START: Colorado has a chance to start a season 8-2 overall and 5-1 in conference for the first time since 2001, when it played in the Big 12. The Buffaloes also are looking to win two straight league road games for the first time since winning three straight in 2004, when they beat Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma State in the Big 12.
No. 15 Arizona surges past Colorado at Pac-12 tourney
Arizona opens Pac-12 play with 64-56 win over Colorado
Pac-12 division races taking shape; Arizona at .500
No. 15 Arizona holds on to beat Colorado, 82-78, in Pac-12
Surprises spread across Pac-12 after 1st month

While some college students planned summer getaways to beaches or big cities, three Kent State Salem students planned summer writing workshops for area kids. And, while some of those college students were enjoying their actual summer getaways, the three Kent State Salem students were teaching youngsters how to travel to far off places through writing and by using their imaginations.
Aarika Denton, Hannah Satterfield and Julia Pitcock, all English majors and members of the English Club on the Salem Campus, were responsible for two writing workshops held over six weeks this summer at the Salem Public Library. Independent of any writing class or assignment, the students planned every detail of the workshops and made the necessary connections with staff at the library.
The workshops were held each Thursday afternoon from 2-5:30 p.m. The first session was "Write Your Own Fairy Tale," designed for ages 8 to 11, followed by "Create Your Own Journal," for ages 10-13.
During the first week of "Write Your Own Fairy Tale" workshop, a Wizard of Oz theme used a Yellow Brick Road to lead workshop participants through the steps of writing a story: setting, characters, problem, solution, etc.
In the "Create Your Own Journal" workshop, the Kent State students used a variety of writing prompts that encouraged the children to begin recording the various aspects of their lives and to consider how what they do and see can be used to write more active and interesting stories.
She explained that each student received a folder that could be decorated and filled with various writing and brainstorming ideas generated over the series of workshops.
"Over the next five weeks, we gave the students flashcards to label characters as 'good' or 'evil' and let them put their imaginations to work creating stories based on ideas and themes that they randomly chose, then switched with one another," Denton continued.
Denton, Satterfield and Pitcock spent hours planning and holding the workshops, knowing that they would receive no grade or extra credit in any Kent State class. Another Kent State Salem student, Brianna Parfaite, also attended the workshops once they began.
Denton explained that, based on the advice of James Winter, club advisor and English faculty member, she drafted a written proposal for the workshop. The proposal was further reviewed by English faculty member Wendy Pfrenger, and "she gave it the thumbs-up," according to Denton.
Then, the three Kent State students submitted the proposal, in person, to the Salem Public Library.
The library provided the room to hold the workshops, arts and crafts items, as well as use of the printer to make copies of worksheets for the students. The library also promoted the workshops through its printed literature, website and in-house television monitors.
Denton explained that the original plan included a third workshop to provide a more free-form of writing for teenagers, which may take place this fall. Based on feedback from the participants in the first two workshops, the Kent State students are considering different themes, times and dates for the next phase.
"I can only speak for myself, but I learned a great deal about organization through this process and how you have to consider different levels of ability or interests, or even how to plan something when you don't know how many kids are going to show up," Denton said. "I think we learned to let the students tell us what way the session should go. We want to make everyone as comfortable as possible so that they know it was a judgment-free, stress-free environment for them to be as creative as they wanted to be.
"I learned how important it is for kids to feel heard and understood," she continued, "and I think it reminded me, after a stressful semester, why we want to pursue this course of study. It was a good 'real world' application of the things we work on all year in our English classes and it provided perspective on why it's so important for people to read – no matter what kind of reading they do. If one of the kids wanted to only read graphic novels or Minecraft manuals, we worked with that.

Some days I look at my kids and marvel at how fast they seem to be growing. Both physically and developmentally. All of a sudden, more than a few of Nicholas's pants seem to be an inch or two too short. Same with Lauren. And sleeves don't quite make it all the way to the wrists. Or I try to cuddle with one of them and realize they no longer fit easily on my lap like they used to and instead it's a tangle of bony elbows and legs that seem to go on forever. Gone are the days when they would sort of mold themselves into your chest like soft, pliable lumps. They just seem to be getting so BIG.
And then I see Nicholas standing among his new t-ball teammates and it takes me only a split second to realize that he's the smallest kid on the team. Huh? He seems so huge at home - is this right? He's not on the 2nd or 3rd grade team by mistake, is he? No? This is the kindergarten team? Wow...
Nicholas is at a very strange age. On the one hand, I love it. The whole world is opening up for him. He's reading exceptionally well. He's becoming responsible. He desires the company of friends with increasing frequency. He's incredibly inquisitive and wants to know everything already. He's getting bolder and more outgoing (like the time this weekend when we were at the park, enjoying a rare and wonderfully sunny afternoon and he and his pal wanted to play with some sand toys they saw there. Usually, Nicholas would insist on my participation in asking the rightful owners for permission to share the toys. But now he's growing some balls and taking matters into his own hand and initiating the request himself without even a glance in my direction. And what's more, when the person he first asked told him the toys weren't theirs and re-directed him to another adult, he simply walked over to them and repeated his request. I was floored. First, because this is new for him and is something we've encouraged - you know, to speak for himself. Like at restaurants when it's time to order, for example, or to do the talking when we knock on a friends door. That sort of thing. But secondly, I was just a tad alarmed. Because while we've wanted him to have the confidence to speak for himself, we've always been there with him, backing him up. Now, he was completely on his own - me being all the way across the playground - but we've also told him, repeatedly, that he's not to speak with people he doesn't know unless/until we tell him it's alright. So him just running up to an unknown adult at the park and asking (nicely, nicely) if he could play with their sand toys is a little unnerving. I'm not sure whether to be proud of him or extremely upset.). But when Nicholas gets hurt, for example, he's big enough now to want to hold his tears in when other people might see him, but little enough to still come running to me for hugs and kisses and cuddles to make it all better, bawling the whole time. So seeing Nicholas, who has gotten so big in my eyes, at the littlest kid on the team made him seem all the more vulnerable to me. I mean, some of these kids have several inches on him. Many inches. Whole heads worth of inches. I guess you can't fight genetics: Mr. Chick isn't exactly on the tall side, standing proud at 5'8". The exact same height as me.
But physical stature aside, I was happy to see that Nicholas is right in the thick of it with the other boys when it comes to athletic ability. And by that I mean NONE. Well, maybe not none. Let's say limited. Limited ability. At least when it comes to baseball. He's had essentially no exposure to baseball other than going to a few minor league games a year or two ago. Mr. Chick has tossed him balls to catch his whole life, but he's got no game when it comes to catching. Lauren has better hands when it comes to catching. But he's not the worst catcher on the team. Very few of the boys could really catch many balls with any sort of consistency. Although, he might have a knack when it comes to grounders. And running isn't his forte, either. He's an average runner. He's fast enough, but not what you'd call fast. And Mr. Chick thinks that he looks sort of funny when he runs. Awkward or something - I'm not sure exactly what he thinks is off, but he's sure something is strange about Nicholas' running form. Me, I'm just happy he CAN run. But when it came time to practice hitting the ball off the T, Nicholas did well. Finally, something he did decently in the world of athletics. He was so nervous when he was standing in line waiting for his turn to bat. He had the look I see so often - the look that tells me he's about to lose it and dissolve into a puddle of tears and hysterics. Nicholas can't handle pressure very well. Once he gets his confidence up, he's fine. The anticipation of possible failure is almost too much for him. But another sign of his getting bigger is his maturity level and his new ability to pull it together better and cope. I very much like seeing this. And when his turn came, he listened to his coach, struck the right pose, and swung. And connected! And the T didn't fall over or anything. He had 4 or 5 good swings before his turn was over and he had to go back in line. And now that he knew what to expect, his anxiety level was much lower and his happiness quotient raised considerably. A smile returned to his face.
The boys will practice once a week until games begin next month, and then there are two games per week: one during the week, and one every Saturday. Through June. Sigh - t-ball is a big commitment. I just hope Nicholas has fun. I don't care if he's "good" - I just want him to have fun, learn some skills, and enjoy being on a team. I want him to develop good sportsmanship.
But on the subjects of athletics, I must share Lauren's newest trick. She "taught" this to herself and does it every.single.morning. After she wakes up in the morning she runs up to our room to announce her wakeful state to us. Then she scrambles up on our bed, scoots down to the foot of the bed and turns around so she's facing us. Then she lies down on her back, flings her arms up over her head, and slides down from the bed toward the floor. Her hands touch the floor and she then kicks her feet over her head and ends up doing a supported (by the bed) back walkover. She'll stand up, raise her arms back up, and say "ta da!" and do this many more times as we watch is awe. Mr. Chick and I are amazed. She doesn't land on her head when she slides down the bed blindly and can support the falling weight of herself with her hands. Each time she kicks her feet over she's more graceful. This is fun for her.
Now I'm even more convinced that registering her for the preschool inside the gymnastics academy was the right decision. I mean, hello - !! Time to look into more gymnastics classes for her, I think. We've taken a break from those offered at the Y (she sort of outgrew them, truth be told...)
And speaking of the Y.... they're STILL jacking me around with the schedule and I'm finding I REALLY don't enjoy this job. AT.ALL. I didn't think I would LOVE it, but I'm finding I don't even like it. Not even a little bit. Childcare is not my thing, I guess. But I like the break on my membership, and I know I'll REALLY like the discount on the various day camps for Nicholas this summer. But this new t-ball schedule is going to make it really tough for me to keep working the crappy shifts they've given me. I e-mailed my supervisor with the information and a suggestion of a single shift that would work out. If they can't do it on their end then I'm pretty sure I'll be leaving. C'est la vie. Between after-school Spanish classes twice a week, speech therapy once a week, t-ball a couple of times, and life in general, it's hard to find a shift that fits in. And really, what I'm realizing is that I'd rather be available to my kids for this sort of stuff and let them be involved in stuff, than to have a job I don't even like that much. I've never been a quitter, so it feels very disloyal somehow to consider leaving a job I've only had for a month or so. But my kids and family come first and this job is so minor that losing it would not be a great loss. We'll see what the supervisor says. Maybe it'll work out that I can just work the one shift per week and all this worry will be for naught.

The Importance of Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance
Enabling Second Party Intelligence Sharing
During the yearly Red Flag advanced aerial combat training exercises hosted at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, the Distributed Mission Site USAF Warfare Center needed to update the system that collected and processed intelligence, the Air Force Distributed Common Ground System, to allow for second party coalition forces to be able to use the system during the exercise.
The U.S. Air Force Warfare Center required a system that:
Allows for second party forces to have access to the intelligence processing system
Updated with the tools needed to train as if the exercise scenarios are "real world" – train as you fight
Lockheed Martin introduced a two-phased security classification reconfiguration to the system being used by Geospatial Intelligence team to allow second party forces to gain access to the workstations required to participate in the Red Flag site exercises.
Phase 1 added a new capability to the system which allowed analysts to transfer processed intelligence data to the Combined Air Operations Center that was set up to command the forces participating in the exercise. In the past, these reports were delivered as hard copy reports; the faster delivery of intelligence enabled commanders to be better informed to take corrective action if needed
Phase 2 involved updating the security posture on the hardware to allow for second party forces to utilize the intelligence system, without the needed to additional security waivers, as was done for prior exercises. The second phase effort also gave the site the ability to expand its processing capabilities due to the new system allowing for other analytical tools to be installed, eventually making the training site nearly as operational as other military sites.

Governor Pegs Another Year of Drought Measures to El Niño
California and the Nation
OK, El Niño, it's up to you.
Governor Jerry Brown issued a new executive order (pdf) Friday that extends to November 1, 2016, the drought restrictions he announced last April after declaring a state of emergency three months earlier. But the extension doesn't kick in if the four-year drought is deemed over by January 31.
The governor did not mention El Niño is his order, but scientists agree a "strong" and "mature" one has already arrived and could start a "conveyor belt" of storms that would drench California beginning in January and last into March. Or not.
Weather and climate experts have been careful for months to point out that the presence of an El Niño doesn't guarantee rain for California. But as the condition developed in the past few weeks, skeptical media stories about historical precedents have been replaced by tales of impending water-logged disasters.
Four months ago, meteorologist Dan Satterfield wrote at the American Geophysical Union's blog, "This El Nino is almost certainly going to be different from 1997 and 1982, with the oceans world-wide at record warmth, and that large region of very warm water in the Eastern Pacific. How will this change our El Nino winter? Will California get rain anyhow?"
Last week, climatologist Bill Patzert of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory told NBC News, rather definitively, that there "will be a series of storms like a conveyor belt—almost like a convoy. . . . It's going to be a mess . . . when these great rains come. There's nothing to hold the water and we are expecting debris, mud, water to come pouring out of the mountains."
But even in a world of uncertainty, very few observers are predicting that even a healthy dose of rain from El Niño is going to prevent California from having a fifth year of drought. State chief hydrologist Maury Roos told the Los Angeles Times he is among the skeptics: "You would have to have much above-average precipitation."
The executive order would extend restrictions on urban water use. The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) would continue to mete out water reductions based on the state's goal of 25%. By and large, water agencies complied with the restrictions and the state reduced its overall usage 28.1%.
SWRCB Chairwoman Felicia Marcus said the executive order will give the board more flexibility to reduce the requirements if robust precipitation in the mountains yields a decent snowpack and reservoirs are recharged. "We just have to see where we are. No one can predict the weather," she said, although Snapple "Real Fact" #912 says that meteorologists claim they are accurate 85% of the time.

Create your own wedding photobooks online.
It's so easy and affordable to create your prints and albums online today and not only can you have all the fun of putting the pictures together yourself you'll also save a small fortune compared to the traditional wedding packages where the cost of a professional album can be a substantial, but hidden cost.
Photobooks are great, they are brilliant value, the print quality is very good indeed and they are a more modern alternative to the traditional album.
You the couple get to choose which photos go in and where – so much more fun than paying someone else to do it for you.
It's easy to create a design to reflect your own individual personality.
It's easy to make multiple copies including at different sizes and formats. Say you want a really big hardback wedding book for yourselves, you could make a smaller version for your parents or even a tiny paperback for your guests. Please note you may have to change the text size, the software will, however, transfer your original design and photo layout easily if you keep the same shape book.
The software saves your design, so if in a few years time your wedding book is looking a bit world worn or tatty, you can simply order a fresh one.
If I'm asked to make a photobook I almost use a company called Blurb. Not only are they easy to use, their printing quality is second to none in the online books market. Plus as they add new features it's becoming easier and easier to create a keepsake with the stamp of your own personality on it.
On top of that (something that's important for me!) the software is easy to use. Honestly, I'm no computer geek, so if I can use it so can you.
You don't really need me to tell you have to use Blurb as it's very intuitive. Simply follow the link to the Blurb Wedding Books Page and click on Get Started.
You'll be asked to download the software called Booksmart which you can easily use to design your photobook.

It was supposed to be exciting, yet such an ordinary event in their lives. A new town, a new university. Tyler's father wanted to turn the old family castle on the hill overlooking the village into student accommodation. Tyler and five friends moved in as a one year trial. All was quiet at the start of the University year but it soon became clear that there was something else in residence as well. Something old, something dark. It had been there, waiting in the shadows for a long time. It had been disturbed by their presence and it did not like them. It did not want them there. And it was very, very angry. Dreams became nightmares, good times turned to evil. Was it just one entity or many? Who did it hate the most? The final showdown was about to begin. How would they rid the castle of it's presence? Or would this entity destroy them first?
Louise Walker has always had a fascination with the supernatural and paranormal and has spent many hours reading and researching ghost stories from around the world. Many of the events described in this book are based on her own experiences or those of her friends and family. Louise was born in New Zealand and currently lives in Auckland with her husband and cat. This is the first novel she has published.

A Chat with 'Vera's' Brenda Blethyn
in Actors and Actresses by Carmen Croghan
A few weeks ago I received a press release in my email from Acorn TV alerting me, as a blogger, that the streaming service was about to premiere a new episode of Vera Series 5 every Monday for the entire month of July. (Editorial note: For those of you without Acorn TV access, Series 5 of Vera begins on WETA on July 17, and on other PBS stations around the country beginning at various points this month. Enjoy!)
What really caught my eye, however, were these words - INTERVIEW OPP: Brenda Blethyn. I immediately shot off a reply to Acorn's publicity assistant expressing my keen interest to interview the Academy Award nominated actress. After over a dozen emails and lot of re-watching of Vera episodes, I found myself sitting in my living room yesterday morning waiting for a conference call from Brenda Blethyn herself.
This being my first interview with a well-known actress (or anyone really for that matter), I was a bit nervous and more than slightly giddy. Nonetheless, as soon as I got the first question out of the way, Ms. Blethyn put me at my ease. I know it's not very professional to gush about your interview subject and perhaps I should be more objective, but I just have to say that Brenda was gracious, generous with her laughter and obviously very passionate about her work. I was already a fan of her acting and now, after speaking with her, I've gotten the distinct impression she's a pretty awesome human being as well.
But enough from this star-struck blogger; please enjoy the conversation I shared with Brenda Blethyn wherein we discussed cast changes, Vera's fashion sense and why she enjoys playing our favorite Northumberland and City police officer, DCI Stanhope.

302 Status Code: What It Is + Its Impact on SEO
Written by Karla Hesterberg @krla_cook
If you've spent any time on the internet, chances are you've encountered an HTTP status code.
In simple terms, HTTP status codes are standard response codes that show the relationship between all the things that go on in the background when you travel from web page to web page. Things like the user agent (i.e., your web browser), the server, the web page you're trying to load, and any third-party web applications you might be running.
Because of the complexity of how all those elements interact, there are many possible HTTP status codes you can run up against.
HTTP status codes identify and diagnose the particular blocker preventing you from loading a resource, and can give you information about the journey you took on the way to a page.
In this article, we'll cover what you need to know about the HTTP 302 status code – jargon-free.
What is an HTTP 302?
The 302 status code is a redirection message that occurs when a resource or page you're attempting to load has been temporarily moved to a different location. It's usually caused by the web server and doesn't impact the user experience, as the redirect happens automatically.
For starters, it's helpful to know that all HTTP messages with 3xx are redirection messages.
Say blog.hubspot.com no longer exists, and the content is now permanently housed on blogging.hubspot.com. This would trigger a 301 status code, which indicates a permanent redirection from one location to another.
The 302 redirect, on the other hand, is only temporary. A good example of when to use a 302 status code is for localization and language purposes.
For instance, if you visit a clothing website based in the United Kingdom but you are located in the United States. A 302 redirect would send you to the US version of the site to ensure the currency and other content are displayed correctly, according to your location.
You can also use a 302 status code when:
Redesigning a page – You can send users to a temporary location while the other page is under construction.
Conducting A/B tests – Want to test a new page and get feedback on its performance? You can do this with a 302 redirect without hurting your ranking.
Running a promotion – To drive traffic to a particular offer, you can set up a temporary redirect for a page that usually includes other content.
A product is sold out – In the case of a sold-out or temporarily unavailable product, you can redirect users to a related page until it is available again.
While this list is not exhaustive, here's the golden rule to keep in mind: Only use a 302 redirect if the change is temporary.
Furthermore, a 302 status code happens on the server-side and shouldn't be noticed by users if set up correctly. The web server serving up the 302 redirect will immediately indicate the new location of the page to your browser (and search engines) and should send users there right away.
How a 302 Status Code Affects SEO
From an SEO perspective, it's important to understand how a 302 status code can impact your ranking and when you should use it.
Firstly, if the location of a page has changed and a redirect has not been set up, this can lead to a 404 status error (i.e., your page cannot be found) and affect your ranking. After all, Google won't want to send users to a page that leads to nowhere.
One benefit of using a redirect like this is that you don't have to sacrifice your ranking when you temporarily send users elsewhere.
Say you're using it to redirect users from a sold-out product page to a relevant product page. You wouldn't want your unavailable product's page to drop in ranking, just because it's currently unavailable. With a 302 status code, you can maintain your ranking.
However, this also means that your temporary URL will not benefit from any link juice because Google knows it won't be there long.
For comparison, a 301 code typically sends most link equity to your new URL, but your page can experience some drop in ranking as a result of the redirect.
How to Identify & Implement an HTTP 302 Error
If you want to see when you've encountered a 302 redirect (or any type of redirect), consider using an application or Chrome extension (like this one, Redirect Path). This type of tool will show you directly in your browser when you run into a redirect.
You can also view and implement the code from the backend by accessing your .htaccess file. To avoid accessing this file, you can also install a redirect manager plugin or an SEO tool that includes a redirect manager (like Yoast SEO Premium).
Overall, you want to make sure you understand how redirection messages affect SEO. A 302 status code can be a great strategy when making temporary changes to your website, like testing new website features and product promotions.
So, when you're debating between various redirection messages, make sure the one you choose aligns with your long-term strategy.

North Korea: Illegal Exporting of Weapons to Sri Lanka Guerilla Groups
Namgung Min
The Sankei Shimbun reported on the 26th that a smuggling vessel containing North Korean weapons have been caught on their way to illegally entering Sri Lanka.
According to the Sankei, the Sri Lanka navy arrested the vessel containing the 68 automatic rifles manufactured by the Munitions Industry Department (No. 99 Department) of the Worker's Party that was leaving from Chonjin to Sri Lanka.
The Sankei announced that when the Sri Lanka navy tried to capture the smuggling vessel on October in 2006 and February this year, the smuggling vessel opened fire so the Sri Lankan navy shot them down. On March in 2007, the Sri Lankan navy took the North Korean vessel near the shore and confiscated the North Korean weapons and arrested the captains.
Furthermore, the newspaper revealed that there was no sign implying the nationality but it was identified as North Korean due to the confiscated weapons which were identified by the former North Korean military men who defected to South Korea.
It was announced that the North Korean machine guns and antitank guns were planned to be passed over to the Anti-government guerrilla groups named the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) in Sri Lanka.
The U.S. appointed LTTE as a foreign terrorist group in 1997 and the EU also appointed the LTTE as a terrorist organization in April, 2007.
According to the newspaper, the Sri Lankan government conducted investigation and came to a conclusion that a Chinese weaponry company probably acted as an intermediary to smuggle the North Korean weapons to the anti-government guerrillas in Sri Lanka.
In regards to this incident, the Sri Lankan government raised complaints to the North Korean ambassador located in India and the Chinese government, but the both representatives are denying their relations to the illegal smuggling of the weaponry.

Doctors also may do a few tests to confirm that a patient has GBS, including a lumbar puncture (spinal tap). Two other tests — an electromyogram (EMG) and a nerve conduction velocity (NCV) test — can show how well nerves are sending signals down to the arms and legs.
People with GBS are usually hospitalized so doctors and nurses can monitor their body functions. Because the way GBS progresses can be unpredictable, some patients are cared for in an intensive care unit (ICU). This lets doctors and nurses keep an eye on vital signs, such as blood pressure or heart rate, and to step in and keep the body functioning until the nervous system can take over again.
In the hospital, somebody with GBS might also receive treatment to help speed recovery. One treatment for GBS is immunoglobulin therapy, which involves using healthy antibodies (immunoglobulins) from blood donors to help block the harmful antibodies in the body of the person with GBS.
Another treatment for GBS is plasmapheresis (plaz-muh-fuh-REE-sus) or plasma exchange, where blood is drawn from the body and then processed so that the red and white blood cells are separated from the plasma, the liquid portion of the blood. Then these cells are returned to the body without the plasma. Scientists think that this helps remove some of the harmful antibodies and seems to reduce the severity and length of GBS symptoms.
Another treatment for GBS is immunoglobulin therapy, which involves using healthy antibodies (immunoglobulins) from blood donors to help block the harmful antibodies in the body of the person with GBS.
How long someone with GBS has to stay in the hospital depends on how serious the condition is. Some patients are in the hospital for only a few days; others are hospitalized for several weeks.
Even after coming home from the hospital, it may take a while before a person feels as good as new. Some people with GBS might need to be in a wheelchair or use a walker until they regain their strength. Many will need physical therapy to get their bodies moving well again.
Recovering from GBS takes patience: People may feel some weakness as long as 3 years after having the condition. But the good news is most people do eventually recover from even the most severe cases of GBS.
Because GBS strikes so suddenly and without warning, it can be difficult to deal with and to adjust to the recovery period. Doctors may recommend that a person see a counselor or therapist or join a support group as a way to talk through the many confusing feelings that can go with having the syndrome. People recovering from GBS usually have tons of questions, such as "Why me?" and "Will it come back?"
GBS can really affect a person's lifestyle, and it might be a while before people can participate fully in their favorite sports or activities. This can feel particularly hard for someone who is usually very active.
For people who go through the ordeal of a slow recovery, it's natural to worry that GBS might come back. Often, this is because some people notice symptoms during recovery that are similar to those they had during the GBS episode, such as tingling in the hands or feet. In most cases, though, these symptoms are not a sign that they have GBS again. More likely, these are due to lingering nerve trouble after the initial bout of GBS. Luckily, only a very small number of people who've had GBS get it again.
As with any medical condition, if you've had GBS and you notice some of the same symptoms coming back, talk to your doctor.
It may take a while before a person who has had GBS is ready to get back to sports and other physical activity, but there's a lot that health care professionals can do to help make the road to recovery smoother and faster.


With Saturday's Arlington Million looming on the horizon, Night School, the racing industry's national online fan education program, has a trio of initiatives scheduled to rally the sport's fan base. First, Tuesday's 28th of 40 Night School lesson plans for the season will focus on "Turf Handicapping" and feature prominent Chicago-based trainer Chris Block and renowned HRTV analyst and handicapper Jeff Siegel in the live chat. The week's schedule also includes an online "Arlington Million Handicapping Camp" seminar on Thursday, and will conclude when the Night School Tour visits on-track at Arlington on Saturday for a live, pre-race seminar.
Tuesday's Night School Turf Handicapping session will be co-hosted by Horse Player NOW's Jeremy Plonk and Joe Kristufek, and also will include video input from analyst Caton Bredar as well as Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint-winning trainer Bret Calhoun.

Tuesday's session will be the 28th of 40 Night School lesson plans throughout the 2012 season, which continues through November.


The Obama Campaign has been hitting the Romney campaign hard all week with accusations of job outsourcing and Mitt Romney staying with Bain Capital past the 1999 date he claims he left the company. While this is typical back and forth campaign volley in an election year, this particular attack makes Mitt Romney's biggest strength, a successful leader in capitalism, into a weakness that will undermine his support among voters. This Machiavellian style of attack is more common coming from the Right, with Republican strategists such as Karl Rove that are notorious for their cut-throat tactics.
This time, the Obama campaign is exploiting Romney's work history for their own benefit. The biggest problem for the Romney campaign so far has been their response to the accusations. This past Saturday, Mitt Romney even demanded that the Obama campaign apologize for their attacks. In response, the Obama campaign released an ad using Mitt Romney's own words against him.
So why does this issue even matter? For the average voter, the notion of someone being the CEO and sole proprietor of a multi-million dollar corporation only on SEC filings is not something they can relate with. Even worse, it isn't the action of someone they trust to revitalize a government that many feel has put the interest of the wealthy and large corporations first.
Further driving the issue, is Democrats demanding that Mitt Romney release more than just two years of tax returns. He gave years of returns to the McCain campaign in 2008 when he was considered as a VP pick, then McCain went with Sarah Palin. Obviously, there is something in those tax returns, or multiple things, that Mitt Romney doesn't want voters to see before the November election.
The Romney campaign is now on the defensive, which means, in a debate, that you're losing. Expect an announcement soon from the Romney camp on a Vice President pick to help distract the media from Obama's attacks. There is still four months left in the campaign, so voters still have plenty of time to be swayed one way or the other. In the meantime, Romney needs to find a way to better relate with voters, or go ahead and plan his concession speech.


The Esporta Wash System has revolutionized the restoration of soft contents. When properly operated it can restore over 85% of the soft contents previously sent to land fill sites.
The ES–3300 Restoration Wash System is the disaster restoration industry's only wet–wash machine designed from the ground up to recover "soft contents" from fire and water disasters. Its patented design features "safe hold" compartments for holding delicates, leathers, and what is known as Category 2 & 3 soiled laundry. It can disinfect, deodorize, and wash up to 160 lbs. of laundry, shoes, and other bulky goods that might have survived your fire and water disaster.
Traditional front and top loading washing machines utilize mechanical action to remove soil from fabric. Traditionally the smoke and soot smells were reduced through the use of ozone, which scientific studies has found to be harmful to humans. The patented Esporta Wash System eliminates the need for ozone by completely removing the smoke, soot, bacteria, mold and other contaminants by using hydraulic pressure to force these contaminants out of the contents.
