+ On the Air: Saddle Up for the 2010 CW Rookie Roundup!
+ Get Ready for the January Issue of QST!
A secondary allocation to the Amateur Radio Service at 461-469 and 471-478 kHz gained inter-American support in meetings held earlier this month in Bogota, Colombia, with the Permanent Consultative Committee II of the Inter-American Telecommunication Commission (CITEL) adopting the US position for the MF allocation. World Radiocommunication Conference 2012 Agenda Item 1.23 calls on participants "to consider an allocation of about 15 kHz in parts of the band 415-526.5 kHz to the Amateur Service on a secondary basis, taking into account the need to protect existing services."

Grab your paddle and mosey on into the ARRL CW Rookie Roundup!
The ARRL's newest on-the-air operating event is designed to help newly licensed amateurs build their operating skills on HF. Three Rookie Roundups -- one each for SSB, RTTY and CW -- are held each calendar year. The CW running of the Rookie Roundup will take place Sunday, December 19 from 1800 UTC through 2359 UTC.This is a contest specifically for those new to Amateur Radio, similar to the ARRL Novice Roundup that ran from 1952 until 1995. The Rookie Roundup combines a competitive event with some on-the-air training, bringing the fun and Elmering of the old Novice Roundup into the 21st century. The Rookie Roundup is a single-operator event only. Stations are allowed a maximum of 100 W. Elmering is encouraged and use of spotting networks is allowed. Read more here.
The new General class question pool is valid from July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2015.
The Question Pool Committee (QPC) of the National Conference of Volunteer Examiner Coordinators (NCVEC) released the new General class (Element 3) question pool on Tuesday, December 7. This new question pool -- including graphics and diagrams -- will become effective for all General class examinations administered on or after July 1, 2011; it will remain valid until June 30, 2015. The current General question pool that became effective July 1, 2007 will expire June 30, 2011. The new General pool contains 457 questions, from which 35 are selected for an Element 3 examination. The current Technician class question pool that was effective July 1, 2010 is valid through June 30, 2014. The current Amateur Extra class pool that was effective July 1, 2008 is valid until June 30, 2012.
Antenna tuners are devices often misunderstood in the Amateur Radio world. While not every station requires an antenna tuner to transmit radio signals, without one an incompatibility between the transmitter and the antenna system can result in poor performance. The ARRL Guide to Antenna Tuners: A Radio Amateur's Guide to Antenna Matching by Joel R. Hallas, W1ZR, will help you understand how to select the right tuner for your needs and how to use it in your shack.
The ARRL Guide to Antenna Tuners discusses the details of the different configurations and requirements of antenna tuners. It explores the design, construction and applications of the different types available. You'll be able to determine if one is necessary in your station, what type of tuner is needed and where to install it for maximum improvement. This book will give you a better understanding of your antenna system and the way it can be improved through the selection and use of the appropriate antenna tuner. Read more here.
The January issue of QST is jam-packed with all sorts of things that today's Amateur Radio operator needs. From product reviews to experiments to contesting -- including a look at a number of do-it-yourself (DIY) projects -- the upcoming issue of QST has something for just about everyone.
If you are contemplating building your own ham radio gear, chances are that you're going to have to bring out the soldering gun. But is there another way? In his article "Reflow Soldering for the Radio Amateur," Jim Koehler, VE5FP, talks about how he found it easier to assemble a PC board using surface mount components instead of through-hole parts using reflow soldering. With this method, a PC board -- with the surface mount components held in place with solder paste -- is placed in an oven where it is heated, turning the paste into liquid solder; after the board cools, the solder solidifies again. Koehler says that because all the soldering is done at the same time, it is a very quick process.
Hams have a long tradition of making their own antennas, accessories and equipment -- but you definitely need the right tools for the job at hand. QST Technical Editor Joel Hallas, W1ZR, takes a look at some tools that you should have in your shack -- from soldering tools to test equipment to socket drivers and wrenches -- if you are looking to try a homebrew project. Who says you need a giant dish and expensive equipment to "ping" the Moon? Bob Baker, KD3UY, shows how you can do "Moonbounce on a Budget" to describe what you actually need -- and don't need -- to make that first Earth-Moon-Earth (EME) contact.

ARRL Contributing Editor Howard Robins, W1HSR, takes a look at the Yaesu FTM-350R dual band FM transceiver in this month's Product Review. He calls it "a top-of-the-line mobile FM transceiver with well thought out controls. It offers some unusual features, such as 222 MHz transmit and a stereo FM broadcast receiver, as well as options such as APRS and Bluetooth connectivity." ARRL Technical Advisor Bruce Prior, N7RR, checks out the Begali CW machine. He says that it is "more than just a keyer and offers a wide range of features for on-air CW operation and off-air Morse code training."
Of course, there are the usual columns you know and expect in the January QST: Happenings, Hints & Kinks, The Doctor Is IN, How's DX, Vintage Radio and more.

ARRL DXCC Manager Bill Moore, NC1L, reports that eight operations in Africa -- 9Q/DK3MO (Democratic Republic of the Congo), 3C0C (Annobon), 3C9B (Equatorial Guinea), 3V9A (Tunisia), 3V0A (Tunisia), TS7TI (Tunisia, also includes /p operation), TS8P (Tunisia, also includes /p operation) and TS9A (Tunisia) -- have been approved for DXCC credit. All operations -- with the exception for the 9Q/DK3MO -- are 2010 operations. The 9Q/DK3MO operation is good for operations commencing in 2007 through the present. Read more here.
The Sun, as seen on Thursday, December 9, 2010 from NASA's SOHO Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope. This MDI (Michelson Doppler Imager) image was taken in the continuum near the Ni I 6768 Angstrom line. The most prominent features are the sunspots. This is very much how the Sun looks in the visible range of the spectrum.
Tad "Lost in their overcoats, waiting for the Sun" Cook, K7RA, reports: The average daily sunspot numbers for the week were up more than nine points to 35, and the average solar flux rose more than six points to 87.3. These changes compare the dates of December 2-8 with the previous seven days. The average planetary A index declined 2.5 points to 2.1, while average mid-latitude A index dropped 1.1 points to 1.6. These are nice numbers, with higher sunspot numbers accompanied by lower geomagnetic indices. The predicted solar flux for the near term is right at the same level as the average for the past week, at 87 for December 9-14, followed by 85, 83, 81 and 80 for December 15-18. The predicted planetary A index for December 9-13 is 5, 8, 10, 10 and 8, followed by 5 for December 14-18, and possibly out to December 23. Note the period of slightly unsettled geomagnetic activity centers around this weekend, the dates for the ARRL 10 Meter Contest, December 11-12. But only a mild increase in geomagnetic activity is expected. This year's event is the first time that Mexican states will be counted as multipliers along with US states and Canadian provinces, as well as DXCC countries. You can see a map of the 32 Mexican states here. Look for more information on the ARRL Web site on Friday, December 10. For more information concerning radio propagation, visit the ARRL Technical Information Service Propagation page. This week's "Tad Cookism" is brought to you by Simon and Garfunkel's Old Friends.

Richard Abruzzo, KC5VWK (right), and Carol Rymer-Davis in the gondola of their balloon, just before taking off in the 54th Gordon Bennett Gas Balloon Race from Bristol, England.
The bodies of famed hot-air balloonist Richard Abruzzo, KC5VWK, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, and a companion were discovered on Monday, December 6 deep underwater off the coast of Vieste, Italy. Abruzzo, 47, and Carol Rymer-Davis, 65, of Denver, Colorado, had been missing since September 29 when they lost contact with officials during a balloon race, after their balloon made a rapid descent during rough weather.

Thank you. We sincerely appreciate your support of our mission.
"Because my wife and I have always lived in what could be considered a "fiscally responsible" lifestyle – always maintaining adequate health insurance and an emergency fund – we probably could have seen our way through covering medical and prescription costs during the period when I was recovering. However, knowing the Kees Brenninkmeyer Foundation was there backing us up made a huge difference in relieving the amount of stress we felt around the surgery. We were able to put all our energy into both preparing for surgery and then regaining full recovery in the shortest amount of time. Though the financial support we received was tremendous, what was most important about the KBF were the "background intangibles." My soul has been refreshed to know there are people and groups out there that truly care about other human beings. Sometimes with the way today's news is, we forget that there's a lot of good and that great and wonderful things happen in the world too. The Kees Brenninkmeyer Foundation completely fits that role. That more than anything has made me want to be more compassionate, to give back more, to be the best person I can be. I know those are all cliches, but they're true. The KBF gave me so much more than just a new hip. You are all super stars!!"

Good pharmacists should hold monthly staff meetings with their staff to find out what is working and what's not working. So if you're dealing with the net pharmacy website for the first time ever, then research before you buy and get more information. Clonazepam is a potent anticonvulsant, muscle relaxant and anxiolytic. The groundwork for global expansion was laid out when it took over as the first food company to be listed inside the Philippine Stock Exchange, which is why capitalization funds started pouring in. Insomnia is seen more commonly ladies, chronic alcoholics and individuals suffering from stress and depression. The Pharmacy Technician Certification Board mandates 20 credit hours of CE, or ce, to be completed every a couple of years after initial certification. The post-war era saw the couple relocating their National Book Store to 'Avenida', which worked out well because business started buying in no time at all. * Massage with heated stones and other heat treatments work wonders for a few women. FDA and legal experts try to keep check about the medicines and shipments for all. Doctors give patients detailed instructions on foods and medications they should avoid while taking MAOIs. They will want to promote these drugs over others, even if higher risks could happen, so do your own research on these before you take them. Nevertheless, some bacteria are good for you personally, including the bacteria in yogurt'lactic acid bacteria. And it you want not to generate any more orders, you might just unsubscribe an order and it'll be cancelled. In earlier times, I would make an effort to take a Benadryl to help me sleep. Non-medical treating insomnia includes sleep hygiene, relaxation therapy like meditation and yoga, stimulus therapy (limiting enough time spent awake in bed, likely to bed whenever you feel sleepy instead of oversleeping by setting a burglar clock), sleep restriction, avoiding large meals before sleeping and making the sleeping environment more comfortable. My local grocery pharmacy never seemed to own any from the medications I needed. Joan's wort prevents pain when taken after exercise, and in many cases better if taken before. His 'Banatao Filipino American Fund' provides be an aid to Northern California students who're of Filipino heritage, to help them build a future by pursuing a college degree in engineering. The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) runs the FPGEC Certification Program. A good way to take a look at information for the medications in the above list and thensome is Drugs. Anyone that has faced the frustration of looking to get a fantastic nights rest knows how difficult it may be be.

Labour and the Poor Volume IV : The Metropolitan Districts Hardback
by Henry Mayhew
Part of the The Morning Chronicle's Labour and the Poor series
Real life London in 1850. A journey through the back streets and into the lives of the people in early Victorian London.
Henry Mayhew, the pioneering social investigative journalist, takes us around the capital and reveals a hidden life-the real Dickens' London. He ventures into places where only the very poorest are forced to tread, interviews the people encountered and publishes their words.
In this volume we hear from the carpenters, cabinet-makers, joiners, turners, and shipbuilders. On the transit of London we meet omnibus drivers and conductors, Hackney coach and cab men, and Thames watermen and lightermen. We enter the houses of dressmakers and milliners where work continues through the night. Visits to the markets of London including Covent Garden, Billingsgate, and Smithfield complete Henry Mayhew's investigation into the Metropolitan Districts.
"Labour and the Poor", the acclaimed investigation into the poor of England and Wales, was undertaken from 1849 to 1851 by The Morning Chronicle, a leading London-based newspaper of the period. This remarkable series will take you into the cities, towns, and villages, into the mills, the factories, and the mines, hearing from the people themselves about their lives, their occupations, and their struggles for survival amidst the overwhelming poverty of the period.
Brought to you in its entirety for the very first time, and including the Letters to the Editor, this extraordinary and unsurpassed investigation will show what life was really like in the mid-19th century-on the ground reporting at its very best.

Adverse events involving levothyroxine in patients treated at the toxicological assistance center of São Paulo
Marina Romera Cavallari, Anthony Wong, Leandro Luongo Matos
Introduction: Thyroxine is prescribed for patients with thyroid hormone deficiency in the event of hypothyroidism or thyroidectomy. Objective: The Toxicological Assistance Center of Sao Paulo (CEATOX-SP) aims to provide specific information to the general public and health professionals in the event of poisoning, exposure to toxic substances, accidents with venomous animals, and adverse drug reactions, assisting with diagnosis and treatment. This study assesses the epidemiology of adverse events involving levothyroxine reported at the CEATOX-SP. Materials and Methods: This is a crosssectional, retrospective study involving cases of therapeutic error, adverse reaction, individual accident with medication, and substance abuse involving levothyroxine, between 2013 and 2015. Results: During the study period, a total of 39,501 patients were treated at the CEATOX-SP, with 1% (396) of the cases involved the use of levothyroxine, and most occurrences (77.8%) were reported in the state of Sao Paulo. All occurrences were domestic; however, the CEATOX-SP was most contacted by physicians, after assistance at health services. Mean age of the patients was 24.4 ± 26.2 years, and 68.9% of them were female. The most common circumstance was "individual accident" (47.5%), the most prevalent type of exposure was "acute only" (56.3%), and the most predominant type of occurrence was "exposure" (73.5%). The main reason for seeking the service were accidents involving children, who found tablets in the house and ingested them. Conclusion: Accident prevention campaigns targeting children and medicines, and awareness of health professionals about the importance of medical prescription can reduce the number of adverse events involving levothyroxine.

Hello!! Well I've got zero finished wips, barely crocheted the last week, I've been so poorly! Full on flu, chest and throat infection, nice, I've actually taken time off work to try and get better which I haven't done in over 8 years! I've always thought If i were poorly off work I'd get loads of crochet done, but I've just not felt like it whatsoever.
So my treat is once I've finished this one I can start lost garden.
The other amazing news that we've been keeping from you, is that @lyndascraftroom and I are the designers for Little Box of Crochet February's Box!!!!!! You know I'm a massive fan of lbc and I have been for the last few years, for Amanda to ask us to design a Box was like a pinch myself moment!!! But it's happened!!!! No sneaky pics yet but, look how amazing the box is!!
If I could of squealed when I saw the pics I would of, but I had no voice whatsoever!! Can you believe it?!!! We can't wait for you to see what's inside!!! Never in a million years when I bought my first box (flower garland) did I ever, ever think that one day we would be designing a box, but there you go, we have!!!
Those are adorable!! I hope you are feeling better.


Not that we persecute customers. If you want butter, just ask for it. In fact, few customers do. They just pour a little puddle of olive oil on the side plate, picking the little spikes of rosemary out of the bread's salty crust. We serve the bread with the wine. The customer doesn't order it and he isn't charged for it. Charging for bread seems as unfriendly and out of date to me as a cover charge.
The reason that serving olive oil with the bread is acceptable even in the middle of Suffolk is because we're all Italian now. We might not know the verbs, but we're fluent in the nouns: focaccia, crostini, ravioli, marscarpone, cappuccino, latte, prosciutto, risotto, Parmigiano Reggiano. This patch of Suffolk may belong to that slenderest of categories-an English vineyard restaurant but nowadays, we all eat with an Italian accent.
That's been my thinking for a long time, but last week, when I heard that Rose Gray, founder of the River Café, had died, I realised how much restaurants like mine owe to her. I never cooked in her kitchen, but I ate at the restaurant soon after it opened. Memories of that meal would eventually appear on my own menus: grilled polenta with marinated grilled vegetables; linguini with crab and fresh red chillies; and, of course, the renowned Chocolate Nemesis.
But if Mrs Gray's most famous gift to us all was a passion for open, honest cooking with great flavours, there was another lesser-known legacy that anyone who runs a restaurant treasures even more. Although she had the highest possible standards, she didn't achieve them by swearing or bullying. She understood the importance of a kitchen that was serious and fun, professional but friendly, a nice place to be.
Perhaps the most unconventional thing that she and her partner, Ruth Rogers, established at the River Café was the front of house-the waiters-helping with the prep each morning, washing salads, de-stemming herbs. This 'everybody does everything' philosophy breaks down the 'them' and 'us' that builds up all too easily in restaurants, where chefs are convinced that the waiters have it way too easy.
Nowhere is the damage of bullying felt more instantly than in the restaurant business. A chef who bullies his brigade will never produce delicious food. The sauce curdles, the spirit wilts. And a chef who thinks all waiters are good-for-nothing idiots can ruin a restaurant. You simply can't recover from a verbal kick in the narrow space between the kitchen door and the dining room. The mood of the whole restaurant is determined at the stove.
You can probably see the fork coming in this road. What's true of the chef de cuisine is true of the head of the country. Gordon Brown's bullying is all too believable. Too many civil servants and MPs who've worked with him have now fled the kitchen. If the chef in charge of the nation has a temper that erupts without warning, his team becomes crippled. The country suffers.
What a shame this Prime Minister didn't spend some time at the River Café. The olive oil would have improved his visage and the Barolo might have mellowed him. Better still, the inspiring way the passionate and driven Mrs Gray treated her staff might have shown him how to bring out the best in his sous chefs.

Sunnyslope Water District has a contract with the City of Hollister and San Benito Foods - Neil Jones Foods Company to operate the Hollister Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant on the western side of Hollister.
From July through September, San Benito Foods operates its tomato canning facility in Hollister and discharges the industrial wastewater from the canning process to the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Transmission Pipeline
From San Benito Food's tomato canning facilities near downtown Hollister, industrial wastewater gravity flows through a large pipe to the headworks of the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant at the western end of South Street.
At the headworks, wastewater passes through a mechanical grinder which pulverizes any tomato scraps or other solid debris. The wastewater is also tested for pH, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), salinity, and several other key factors for the treatment process. It is also metered to determine the exact wastewater flow into the treatment facility. From the headworks, wastewater then flows into Pond 1 where it is treated.
Treatment Pond
From the headworks, wastewater enters the treatment pond through one of four inlet structures. The pond is divided into three distinct sections by baffle curtains running through the pond. Initially, water enters section 1A where 18 aerators mix the wastewater to increase the dissolved oxygen (DO) of the water. It is important that the wastewater has a high DO to promote the growth of aerobic microbes which break down and consume the organic matter and tomato waste. This process does not cause the odors or bad smells often associated with wastewater as long as enough oxygen is in the water to support the aerobic microbes.
Highly aerated wastewater then enters section 1B where four smaller aerators maintain the DO while the solids settle out of the water and form a sludge at the bottom of the pond. During the off season, that sludge is dredged, treated, and properly disposed of at a landfill or as fertilizer for agriculture.
Water enters section 1C at the southern end of the pond, then must travel all the way back to the northern end where it is pumped out after being fully treated. In section 1C are four final polishing aerators.
Percolation Ponds
Fully treated wastewater is pumped form the treatment pond by the effluent pump. A portion of the water can be diverted back to the pond inlets to repeat the whole process for additional treatment. Clean treated water that meets regulatory standards is then directed into one of four percolation basins for disposal. The water soaks into the ground and replenishes the local groundwater.


step 1 Preheat oven to 220°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Combine tomatoes, olives, capers, thyme and olive oil in a bowl. Place fish onto baking tray and spoon tomato mixture over fish. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until fish is cooked and tomatoes soft (cooking time will vary according to thickness of fish).
Step 2 Meanwhile, cook pasta in large saucepan of boiling water until tender, adding peas in last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain.
Step 3 Serve fish with pasta and peas, lemon wedges and salad.
For another Mediterranean twist, replace pasta spirals with couscous and add some crumbled reduced-fat feta.

AUSTRALIAN PRAYER NETWORK NEWSLETTER
CATHOLIC BISHOPS CALLED TO ANSWER IN ANTI-DISCRIMINATION TEST CASE
MOTHER, MIDWIFE AND SHEIKH FOUND GUILTY IN GENITAL MUTILATION TRIAL
MILITARY TIES TO DARWIN PORT'S NEW CHINESE OWNER
Australia's Catholic bishops have been drawn into a national test case for freedom of religion and speech after Tasmania's Anti-Discrimination Commission found they have a case to answer over distributing a booklet supporting traditional marriage. The commission has signalled a momentous test case will be held, with a hearing in Tasmania, because of the issues of "public importance" in the case. The Catholic Church has argued that it had no intention to cause offence but was exercising its freedom of speech and religion before the promised plebiscite on same-sex marriage after the next election. Various Christian churches have expressed fear that freedom of religion and speech will be limited under same-sex legislation, which Malcolm Turnbull has pledged to introduce if a plebiscite approves same-sex marriage.
Archbishop of Hobart Julian Porteus was initially singled out in a complaint by transgender Greens political candidate Martine Delaney that she felt humiliated and that he had breached the Tasmanian Anti-Discrimination Act by circulating a booklet to the parents of Catholic school students called "Don't mess with Marriage". Ms Delaney, who has changed from a male to a female and lives in a same-sex relationship with a woman, said she was humiliated by the booklet which only paid "lip service" to showing respect to same-sex attracted Australians whilst sending out negative messages about them. She said the booklet did immeasurable harm to "the wellbeing of same-sex couples and their families across Tasmania".
Ms Delaney had also complained about the Catholic bishop's conference, which represents all Catholic bishops in Australia, which had distributed the booklet around the nation. The Tasmanian commission cited the bishops' conference as the prime mover in the booklet and Archbishop Porteus as the second target. The notification of the upholding of the complaint said that under the Tasmanian Act there was a possible breach by "conduct that is offensive, intimidating, insulting or ridiculing of Ms Delaney and the class of same-sex attracted people". Anti-Discrimination Commissioner Robin Banks said the matter should be considered and that conciliation was "unlikely" to solve the issue because "it raises issues of public importance".
The commission said if conciliation does not succeed then the Tasmanian tribunal will hold a hearing. All Catholic bishops and Archbishop Porteus have been given 21 days to respond to the commission's finding and to decide on whether to seek conciliation. Archbishop Porteus said he did not wish to comment "too widely" on the issue because of the legal nature of the complaint but said he would try to reconcile with Ms Delaney. "In distributing the Pastoral Letter, 'Don't Mess With Marriage', my aim was to assist the Catholic community in understanding the teaching of the Catholic Church, at a time when debate on this matter was widespread within the community,'' he said. "It was not my intention to offend.''
The Australian Christian Lobby (ACL) has called for the Turnbull Government to urgently legislate to override anti-free speech provisions in state-based anti-discrimination laws so that free speech can be exercised in the marriage debate. ACL Managing Director Lyle Shelton said it would be impossible to have a fair marriage plebiscite debate if one side is to be shut down under the threat of prosecution. The booklet simply teaches what millions of Australian Christians, Muslims and others believe to be the truth about marriage. "The use of state-based anti-discrimination law to silence the church in Tasmania is a worrying development. "Australian Marriage Equality (AME) and the Greens are using these laws to stop Australians from hearing respectful arguments in favour of preserving the definition of marriage.
"The Catholic Bishops' booklet contains precisely the arguments pro man-woman marriage supporters want their fellow Australian's to hear during the plebiscite debate. Unless there is protection for free speech, any victory for same-sex marriage in the Turnbull Government's promised plebiscite will be tarnished and divisive in the Australian community. It is critical that the plebiscite be completely fair to both sides. The ability to speak freely is a precondition of a fair process." Mr Shelton said ACL realised there may well be constitutional complexities in a Commonwealth override but it was in the interests of supporters of redefining marriage to ensure there was a level playing field ahead of the plebiscite. "The last thing Australia needs is an unfair, divisive American-style settlement to the same-sex marriage debate."

When the little girl appeared on the courtroom television screen, Justice Peter Johnson removed his horsehair wig and asked the three barristers acting in Australia's first female genital mutilation trial to do the same, to make the 9 year-old witness, known as C2, feel at ease. "I don't think it will have a magical effect, but I hope it will make us look a little more human," Justice Johnson said. It was a poignant act that symbolised the youth of C2 and her sister C1, the victims of the mutilation, and the extremely sensitive nature of the things they were to talk about, via video link from another room. Ultimately, the girls' mother, who can only be known as A2, and a former midwife, guilty of mutilating the clitorises of the sisters during ceremonies in Wollongong and Sydney between October 2009 and August 2012.
A sheikh, Shabbir Vaziri, was found guilty of being an accessory after the fact. All three were members of the Dawoodi Bohra Shia Muslim community. The sisters, who were given pseudonyms by the court to protect their identities, were interviewed by a social worker at their school in August 2012, after police received reports of female genital mutilation within the religious sect. C1 said that when she was about seven she went with her mother to a house in Wollongong, where the midwife laid her on a bed and carried out a procedure known as "khatna", which involved a "little cut down there". When the social worker asked her why it happened, C1 replied: "It's a part of our culture and it has happened to every girl." C2, the younger sister, told police similar details, saying she was hurt on "the bottom".
C1, who is now 11, later gave evidence that she saw the midwife holding a tool that looked like scissors. The defence argued the ceremony was "secret women's business", involving a symbolic touching of the girls' genitals with forceps, and there was no physical evidence of injury. The midwife's barrister Stuart Bouveng asked C1 what kind of pain she experienced during the procedure. "It was short, it didn't last long. It was like a pinching or a cutting, I'm not sure," C1 said. The jury heard hours of telephone intercepts, including a call A2 made to an aunt in which she said: "Honourable maternal aunt, we had [C1], [C2] circumcised." There were also several calls in which the girls' parents spoke about whether they could tell police it happened in India or Africa.
Dr Sonia Grover, a paediatric gynaecologist, told the court it was possible the tips of the girls' clitorises had been removed, but there were other more likely medical explanations. "If you were going to remove tissue, it would hurt and bleed," she said. "The girls did not complain of pain or problems in the days after. So whatever was done was a minor procedure." After the verdict, Crown Prosecutor Nanette Williams asked that bail be revoked for all three offenders, arguing that there was a risk they would flee the jurisdiction and that they now faced jail. The police officer in charge of the investigation, Detective Sergeant Eugene Stek, told the court he was concerned that the offenders would be protected by their close-knit community and possibly assisted to leave the country now that they had been convicted.
Sergeant Stek said that, on the day Vaziri was arrested, he had been about to leave the country for India. He also said he was worried that some or all of the offenders would encourage fellow members of their community to hide other instances of female genital mutilation if allowed back into the community. But Justice Johnson refused the detention application, allowing the trio to remain on bail subject to strict conditions, including the surrendering of their passports and other travel documents. They will return to court on February 5 for sentencing.

Defence experts believe the new Chinese operator of the Port of Darwin should be placed under renewed scrutiny, amid evidence of its close and extensive links to the People's Liberation Army (PLA) and the group's recent move to set up its own armed internal militia unit. While the Defence Department has approved the deal to sign a 99-year lease over the port facilities with China's Landbridge Group, the agreement, announced last month, has concerned some senior Australian Defence Force officials. Veteran Liberal senator Bill Heffernan last night called for the agreement to be reviewed in light of new information about the company, which defence experts claim is a "commercial front" for the Chinese military and the Communist Party.
Northern Territory Chief Minister Adam Giles hailed the $506 million deal with the "private sector partner" as a fantastic outcome for the territory. But the company's Chinese-language website reveals extensive details of the creation of a "people's armed militia" by the Landbridge Group — demonstrating its close links to both the Communist Party and the PLA. Mr Giles said his government did not have any concerns about the deal over the port. "We've had a chat to Landbridge and they've said they've been poorly interpreted," Mr Giles said. "We're going to get a proper interpretation done." Defence Minister Marise Payne's spokesman said the government's position on the lease had not changed. Landbridge is owned by Chinese billionaire Ye Cheng, who is a former senior military officer and senior Communist Party official.

Pelzfarm in Polen blockiert – Update
Diese News wurde uns anonym per E-Mail zugestellt.
The protest continues, the barricades are still there. The investor wanted
to sell the land back for 3 mln PLN (over 700 000 eur) which is
ridiculous. He also said that if they don't want minks, he will bring the
foxes.

On Wednesday [10.7.2013], over 100 people from Przelewice village blocked the transport of minks to the newly constructed farm that belongs to the Dannish investor. The blockade started two days ago and the village inhabitants are in the streets day and night to make sure that the investor will not be able to start the business there. Even the firebrigade joined the blockade (you can see that in the video).

Another attempt to bring the animals to the farm was blocked yesterday.

This module describes the most common types of qualitative research approaches and discusses how to select an appropriate approach.
List the common types of qualitative research design approaches.
Compare and contrast qualitative approaches.
Describe how to choose the appropriate approach for a research problem.
Once a researcher has decided that their research question will provide data that is qualitative in nature, the next step is to choose the appropriate qualitative approach for their research design. The approach chosen will take into account the purpose of the research, the role of the researcher, the data collected, method of data analysis and how the results will be presented. The most common approaches include narrative, phenomenology, grounded theory, ethnography, and case study. The following chart summarizes the characteristics of each approach. This chart, in combination with the resource links on this page, will be helpful in determining the appropriate approach for your research.
The chart above compares and contrasts common qualitative approaches. Once you understand the types of approaches, the next step is to identify the type of approach that is most suitable for a particular research question. Following are examples of research questions for each type of approach.
Narrative: A study of the life of Mother Theresa.
Phenomenology: What is it like to be an inmate in a penitentiary?
Grounded Theory: A description of the relationship between a doctor and a nurse.
Ethnography: A study of Native Americans living on reservations.
Case Study: The effects of the flipped classroom teaching style on the motivation of middle school science students in Lincoln High School.
The following Slideshare presentation further discusses these approaches, as well as the basics of qualitative research and specific methods that can be applied when you using these approaches. This is a comprehensive presentation that will set the stage for future modules as you consider how to apply one of these approaches to your research.

Module stick/middleware/route

Middleware for HTTP method based local request routing.

This installs get, post, put, and del methods in the application
object for routing requests with the corresponding HTTP methods. These
methods take a path spec as first argument and a function as second argument.

Paths and Placeholders

The path spec can consist of static parts and placeholders.
Named placeholders are prefixed by : (colon) and match all
characters except for / (slash) and . (dot). A named
placeholder can be marked as optional by appending ? (question mark).
Unnamed placeholders are denoted by the asterisk character * and match
all characters including slashes and dots.

In the following example, ":id" is a named placeholder:

"/post/:id"

All placeholders are passed to the action function as positional arguments
following the request object in the order in which they appear in the path spec.
Unmatched optional placeholders will be undefined.

app.get("/post/:id", function(req, id) {...});

Reverse Routing

The route middleware supports generating URLs from route names and parameters
required by the route.

Routes names are derived from the route's path spec by stripping
out all placeholders and removing a leading slash. For example, a path
spec /post/:id.html results in route name "post.html". If a path spec
does not contain any static part, its route name is "index".

Passing a valid route name and the parameters required by the route to the route.reverse
method will return the URI path for the corresponding action. For example,
with a route spec /post/:id.html, calling app.route.reverse({action: "post.html", id: 5})
will return the string "/post/5.html".

The [stick/helpers] module provides higher level helpers for reverse routing including
support for mounted applications.

 Example

app.configure("route")
app.get("/", function() {...})
app.post("/", function(req) {...})
app.get("/:id.:format?", function(req, id, format) {...})
app.del("/:id", function(req, id) {...})
app.put("/:id", function(req, id) {...})

The Wetaskiwin Public Library postponed its planned re-opening after two staff members came into contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19.
Those staff members are being tested and are quarantining for 14 days.
Wetaskiwin Library postpones opening Back to video
Due to the health and safety of the community and staff, the Wetaskiwin Public Library will be delaying its original opening date, which had been set for Tuesday, Sept. 8. They will continue contactless pick-up until it is safe to open to the public
Prior to this update, last week Library manager Svea Beson said the planned re-opening was going to be done cautiously.
"We're a little tentative. We're worried about the little surge (in COVID-19 cases) we've had but we've been preparing for this for months."
When it does reopen, the library will be open Monday to Friday 10 a.m. to noon, closed for lunch then open from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. to allow staff to have their lunch and clean the library for afternoon patrons.
Only eight people, plus staff, will be allowed in the library at one time and all patrons will be required to where masks.
Although that is not a City mandate, Beson said the Library board made that decision at its last meeting.
"If you don't want to wear a mask we're still offering curbside, contactless pick-up," she said.
Only four of the library computers will be open and they are to be used for business or study-related purposes, no games, with a 20 minute use maximum on them.
"I suspect if the computers are in use there will be a line-up," she said.
Library staff are also asking only one family member come into the building to pick up books and materials.
Because of the limits on patrons, there is no library programming going on at this time.
While in the library, patrons are asked to limit the items they touch and to not reshelve items themselves.
"We'll have bins set up around the library as items will have to be quarantined before they can be put back on the shelf," said Benson.
There is no time-line on when the library will open things up further.
"We'll have to see how it goes," she said.

Joker Will Become Highest-Grossing R-Rated Movie of All Time
It will soon pass 2016's Deadpool.
byAdam Bankhurst
Posted Oct. 21, 2019, 9:02 p.m.
Joker is set to become the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all time, not adjusted for inflation, as it will soon surpass 2016's Deadpool that earned $783 million in world ticket sales.
As reported by THR, Todd Phillips' Joker starring Joaquin Phoenix, in its first three weeks through October 20, has already brought in $737.5 million USD.
In North America, Joker earned $29.2 million this past weekend for a North American total of $247.2 million. Overseas, it brought in $77.9 million in the same timeframe, making the international total $490.3 million.
See where Joaquin Phoenix's Joker ranks against all Batman movie villains.
Joker has also become the "the fourth-best international showing of all time for a DC title behind 2018's Aquaman ($811.8 million), 2012's The Dark Knight Rises ($636.3 million) and 2016's Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice ($537 million)."
Some think Joker will end up raking in "close to $900 million globally," while others believe it has a shot at "approaching $1 billion."
Rounding out the highest-grossing R-rated films of all time are 2003's The Matrix Reloaded at $738.6 million, 2017's It at $697 million, and 2003's The Passion of the Christ at $622.3 million.

By Brad Dokken on Feb 3, 2019 at 8:40 a.m.
Scott Jensen admits he was nervous going into this year's Arrowhead 135 winter race in northeast MInnesota, given all the hoopla about the dreaded polar vortex and forecast record cold temperatures.
That's understandable when you're gearing up for a grueling, 135-mile wilderness ride on a fat-tire bike from International Falls to Tower, Minn.
"It was sort of a sense of foreboding," said Jensen, 57, a Grand Forks attorney and fat-tire bike enthusiast. "We woke up Sunday morning up in International Falls, it was 44 below, and my car wouldn't start."
Sleep was hard to come by Sunday night, Jensen says, and his mind was racing in the hours leading up to the race, which got underway at 7 a.m. Monday, Jan. 28, in International Falls. Competitors who didn't drop out along the way had to cross the finish line at Fortune Bay Casino near Tower by 7 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 30.
"I was more nervous this year," he said. "I'm a little old to be doing this again. That's all I could think about."
Riding a Salsa Beargrease fat bike, Jensen finished the race at 8 a.m. Tuesday with a time of 25 hours, 50 minutes, good enough for 25th place. This was his seventh Arrowhead, which is open to competitors on bike, skis and on foot.
A total of 178 participants in the three categories started the race, and 52 finished—39 bike riders and 13 of the 65 runners who entered.
Among other area participants competing on bike, Chuck Lindner, 47, of Warroad, Minn., finished 7th with a time of 19 hours, 8 minutes; Pat Adrian, 48, of Roseau, Minn., placed 9th with a time of 19 hours, 10 minutes; and Ryan Haug, 47, of Fargo placed 10th with a time of 19 hours and 22 minutes.
"Our local people all finished and did well," Jensen said.
The temperature was about 10 below zero at the start of the race and warmed up slightly throughout the day, Jensen says. By the time he crossed the finish line Tuesday morning in Tower, the mercury had plummeted to nearly 25 below zero with a windchill of 47 below.
Conditions worsened throughout the day.
It's been cold other years, too, including a low of minus 33 last year, but "this year was definitely cold," Jensen said.
Aside from breaks at the three checkpoints along the route, Jensen pedaled throughout the night, guided only by the headlight of his bike and the GPS he opted to carry this year after going off-course for about 5 miles during last year's race.
He took his longest break at the 70-mile checkpoint, MelGeorge's Elephant Lake Lodge and Resort near Orr, Minn., spending a solid two hours drying off, eating and making sure he wasn't frostbit.
Frostbite was especially a concern after a racer last year lost all or parts of six toes, Jensen says.
"I just wanted to make sure that I was OK," he said. "I really didn't want to end up with frostbite. You have it in your mind, so I took a little extra time to make sure I wasn't frostbit.
"It turned out, really, better than I deserved," he added with a laugh. "I was very happy about that."
Jensen dressed in layers, wearing two pairs of bike shorts, three pairs of long wool underwear and light ski pants on his legs. On his upper body, he wore a base layer of thermal underwear, thin wool sweaters, a light jacket and a vest he bought at a gas station on the drive to International Falls.
On his feet, he wore oversize biking boots that clip into the pedals and two pairs of thin wool socks with plastic bags between them He wore two light polypropylene caps.
Despite the cold, staying dry was an issue throughout the race, Jensen says. By the time he reached the third checkpoint at mile 111, Jensen says so much ice had built up on his sweaters that he couldn't get them off.
"It just freezes around your wrist," he said. "Your wrists are the smallest point, and the layers of ice were so thick I couldn't get my sweaters off. I just thawed out the wrists enough to take them off and then thawed them out enough again to put them back on. I was soaking wet; you go back out into the cold soaking wet.
"I was always covered in ice, but I was never horribly, horribly cold."
This year, Jensen says he kept his water from freezing like it did last year by carrying the hydration pack inside his coat and vest. In addition, Pat White of the Ski and Bike Shop in Grand Forks mounted a small container for carrying hot liquids on the handlebars of Jensen's bike.
"I was actually able to drink (hot chocolate) while I biked, just by reaching down, picking that up, popping the lid, and that was fantastic," Jensen said. "It's just really nice to be able to drink something warm like that once an hour or so."
The cold actually helped trail conditions, which were as good as he'd ever seen them, Jensen says. By comparison, warm temperatures soften the snow and make riding difficult.
"When it's that cold, the trail is firm so you have that going for you," he said. "It's still hard to do anything for 25 hours, but at least the snow was set up."
As for next year, the jury's still out on whether Jensen will race again, but he admits it's addicting.
"When I got to the finish line, very pointedly I told them I'm going to leave a spot open for somebody else next year, but they reminded me that I say that every year," Jensen said. "You don't feel that good by the time you're done. We'll see."

One fundamental issue concerns the options on the ballot paper. Campaigners for a referendum want a straight choice between the negotiated withdrawal agreement and the option of remaining in the EU. But many Brexiteers find the deal anathema. They would see such a vote as a stitch-up, delegitimising the result. A three-option referendum could alternatively be held, with a no-deal option alongside the other two. So long as a preferential voting system were used, that would be tenable. But most MPs see a 'no deal' Brexit as catastrophic. If voters chose it, would those MPs really be willing to acquiesce in all the preparations that would be necessary? If they cannot contemplate doing that, they should not put it before voters. There are no easy answers as to what the right approach is here—any referendum is fraught with dangers. It would be wise to spend time weighing the risks.
Then there is the question of how the campaign should be conducted. There is general acceptance that the rules by which the 2016 referendum was run were not fit for purpose. The Commons Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport Committee has called for reforms to tame the wild west of digital campaigning. The government's recent Online Harms white paper acknowledges misinformation as a threat to democracy, and proposes a range of measures, including greater transparency for online political advertising. It would be remarkable if parliament did not seek to address some of these issues in the legislation enabling the referendum. Again, it would make sense to ensure proposals were examined in depth, not rushed through.
Whatever the legal rules, journalists, academics, policy experts and others should consider how they could foster a more reasoned debate than happened last time. Broadcasters such as Robert Peston have accepted that programme makers did not do a good enough job. Beyond fact-checking, which the BBC and others are already giving greater prominence, broadcasters should be promoting thoughtful discussion rather than endless seesaw tussling between the two sides. In another report, published last month, I argued that we should learn from Oregon, where, before a referendum, a group of randomly selected citizens meets for four or five days, hearing from experts and deliberating on the issues among themselves before setting out what they think in a short statement. The BBC could build on this model to draw the voices of ordinary voters into the heart of the campaign. Once again, setting this up would take time.
So, yes, a referendum could be held by October if parliament really wanted it. But rushing such a vote no longer makes sense. If a referendum is to be held, time should be allowed to settle the question, strengthen the rules, and do all that is possible to engender considered discussion.

Artist Kristin Poh of Australia in front of her "Voyage" art print.
Artist Kristin Poh of Australia is the founder of creative business Hues & Fables, an art studio producing unique art prints for cheerful home interiors. Kristin shares with how she uses Hues & Fables art prints to decorate her own home.
"Melange No. 2" art print shown.
Jacquin: What got you started in art prints? Have you always known you wanted to be an artist?
Kristin: I was quite imaginative as a child, and I enjoyed doing creative things like drawing and coloring, so I knew pretty early on that I wanted to do something creative when I grew up. My interests saw me completing a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Graphic Design and then spending the following ten years working in the creative field. I enjoyed what I did thoroughly. When I had my daughter Olivia, I took some time off to embrace motherhood. It was during this time that I started to create art prints for our home and in particular for Olivia's room.
I have always loved interior decorating, so I really enjoyed creating pieces that reflected my own style. Becoming a mother made me realize just how fascinating little minds are, especially in how important color is to their cognitive development. So that inspired me to design using different colors so I could change the artwork on Olivia's walls regularly to keep it interesting for her. So this got me designing art prints and launching Hues & Fables.
Jacquin: Where does your "less is more" philosophy come from?
Kristin: When I reflect on different aspects of my life, including my creative work, I find that I have always navigated towards simplicity. I love the idea of something being simplified to only what is essential. In doing so I feel what is left is in fact its true essence, and to me this represents having a more refined and therefore more valuable outcome. So fundamentally, I would say it comes from my appreciation of having clarity in what I do and experience.
Jacquin: What is your favorite space in your home right now?
Kristin: At the moment my favorite space would have to be our master bedroom. Before we had Olivia, we had the opportunity to travel to different cities and to stay in some really nice boutique hotels. One of our most memorable experiences would have to be our trip to New York where we stayed in a stylish hotel in Soho. When we decided to renovate our home four years ago, we were clear that we wanted to create a similar feel in our master bedroom. So now, even though we do not have as much opportunity to travel like we used to, being in the room brings us back to those days, and having such a stylish yet calming space to retreat to at the end of a busy day is precious to me.
Jacquin: What are some of your creative inspirations? Are there any artists or designers that inform your artistic approach?
Kristin: I find creative inspiration from a lot of things. It can be anything from fashion to food or a piece of furniture or packaging. As long as it is visual, has a strong concept and wows me, it will no doubt inspire me too!
The artist Lee Ufan – in particular his paint work – is a great source of inspiration to my artistic approach. Lee Ufan is a Korean minimalist artist and philosopher, and I first came across his work at the Guggenheim Museum in his Marking Infinity exhibition. I remember looking at his early painting series From Point and From Line, and being blown away at how simple and yet powerfully captivating his paintings were.
I also find the French designer Philippe Starck very inspiring. He has worked on a vast range of design projects, from toys to furniture and vehicles to architecture. His designs are many things but they are never boring, and I have a lot of respect for his values and commitment to creating high quality designs that are beautiful, purposeful and sustainable.
"Olivia" the bunny art print shown.
Jacquin: What would your perfect day look like?
Kristin: A perfect day would see our family enjoy a lazy morning in bed laughing and cuddling. Brunch with great friends would follow, somewhere outdoors so I can soak in some sunshine! In the afternoon, a trip to the bookstore would see me treating myself to a new coffee table book, and the rest of the afternoon would be spent reading. At night, I would look forward to some delicious cooking from the husband, a lovely bottle of red and a really good movie to cap off the day!
Jacquin: Do you have any suggestions for embracing simplicity at home or in life?
Kristin: I think you need to discover what your version of simplicity is before you can embrace it, and I feel having self-awareness is key. My own understanding of what I value as a person has certainly helped me focus my energy and time on pursuing – and appreciating – a more meaningful life. It has also allowed me to create a purposeful home that brings me great inspiration and joy everyday. I think something as simple as having an honest conversation with yourself about what is important to you and what brings you real happiness is a great step towards embracing simplicity.

Dr. Brown shares how replacement theology opened the door to the Holocaust and then focuses on the redefining of marriage from the Grammy Awards to the Disney Channel. Listen live here 2-4 pm EST, and call into the show at (866) 348 7884 with your questions and comments.
Dr. Brown's Bottom Line: It is not hysteria, it is simple truth; you redefine marriage, you make it meaningless.
Dr. Brown's Bottom Line: The harvest has never been riper in our lifetime than it is now. Let's go for it and reap!
"Put to the curb" (minute 20 or so), I think that's something about religious police.
I'm not sure Dr. Brown going to get very far arguing that atheists have moral relativity and we Christians are moral absolutists. We Christians have a track record of rationalizing-away even our highest and clearest moral commandments like — "Do not kill." "Love your enemies" "Do to others as you would have them do to you." etc.
But, to be honest, I don't know what does hold sway with atheists.
As a Christian, it seems to me that we share several aith-based assumptions with the atheists but I've never met an (activist) atheist who was willing to admit that they were anything less than completely rational about everything.
But, it seems to me, that atheist morality is an exercise in faith.
As a person of faith, myself, I recognize that as faith-based believe structure. But, I've never met an atheist who sees it that way.
The thing I find contrary with atheists is that they will deny God and say he doesn't exist, but when invited to experience God, they have no interest.
It's a man that worships God that will experience God.
But will God come to a man simply because he decides to worship him?
Now, to worship God sincerely, one must believe that he is.
Yet it seems to me that people often have a bit more faith than they seem to realize or sometimes even care to admit.
Everyone knows that no man made the sky so big, or the clouds so large that they could carry so much rain. No earthly man could ever do such a thing. It's plain. It's evident.
No animal could do it.
No vegetable could conceive it.
Will they ever pray and thank God for a wonderful day?, for clean breaths of air?, for a good yesterday?, or for a good meal?
I can't understand an atheist. I think I will have a better chance understanding God.
God is love. He freely gives us clean breaths of air, and rain, and good days, and good meals.
What will an atheist ever give me? A good word of encouragement? A genuine kind word? Doesn't kindness come from God? Isn't that a gift of his grace to us through his kindness? Are we not kind to others because he was first kind to us?
I don't think there's kindness in hell. Why would anyone want to go there? We should seek to avoid such a place, especially since heaven will be so good, and so long lasting, even for eternity.
I'm sure it has a wonderful atmosphere.
How about answering a few questions? What would it matter if there were no God? How would you behave differently from the way you do now? What would change in your life? How would a world without God be any different than this one?
Van, If there were no God, I suppose it would be like standing in a garden with nothing growing, finding out there is no garden, and then realizing there isn't even a place to stand.
Or maybe it would be like looking into a sky with no color, only to find out that there is no sky, and then coming to the realization that there is no light, and then finding out that one is blind.
Or maybe it would be like taking a big fresh breath of air, and finding out that there is nothing to breathe, and that one doesn't even have any lungs, then finding out that one has no life.
Or maybe it would be like going to a beautiful beach to launch a boat, only to find out…..
How could I live at all if there was no God? It would be an impossibility. The question doesn't even make any sense.
I wouldn't even have a life to change, wouldn't even know what change was, and also would have no power to do it.
The difference between a world without God and one that doesn't have one, would be something like the differences I've already explained, and the difference between eternity and nothing at all.
Van, now answer my question please.
What could your life be like with God?
That is not an honest answer. Let me rephrase the question. Suppose you woke up tomorrow and realized there is no God. How would you behave differently from the way you do now? What would change in your life? How would a world without God be any different than this one?
"Van, now answer my question please.
> Exactly as it is now.
Those must be really tough questions for Christians because I never get a straight answer. Anyone else want to give them a shot?
If you have the guts to read it, your response would be worth something.
