Узурпа́ция (от  «овладевание»), Захват власти — захват, присвоение, в особенности насильственное присвоение политической  власти, насильственный, противозаконный приход к власти или присвоение чужих прав или полномочий.

Лицо, совершившее узурпацию, то есть лицо, свергнувшее законное правительство и овладевшее правлением — Узурпатор.

Присвоение

В истории узурпация проявлялась в присвоении фактическим правителем предметов своего предшественника путём замены на объекте имени. Такая практика была распространённой среди фараонов Нового царства. Позже узурпация распространилась на портретные изображения. Подобные действия близки к «проклятию памяти», когда имена и картуши затирались. К счастью для историков, подобные практики поддаются исследованию и дешифровке благодаря внимательному эпиграфическому анализу.

Пасынок царицы Хатшепсут Тутмос III после её смерти присвоил многие её памятники. Последний правитель XVIII династии Хоремхеб узурпировал памятники предыдущих фараонов — Тутанхамона и Эйе: Колонный зал Карнакского храма, Стелу реставрации Тутанхамона, колоссов Эйе из своего заупокойного храма на западе Фив. Больше прочих узурпацией занимался Рамсес II, но делал это не из ненависти к предшественникам, а для укрепления своей власти на протяжении долгих лет правления. В конце XIX династии Аменмес узурпировал многие картуши Мернептаха на памятниках.

Захват власти
В юридической литературе понятие «узурпация власти» используется для определения насильственного захвата или удержания власти. Во всех демократических странах узурпация власти является тяжким государственным преступлением. УК России (Российской Федерации) 1996 года (статья 278) устанавливает уголовную ответственность за действия, направленные на насильственный захват власти или насильственное удержание власти, а также насильственное изменение конституционного строя Российской Федерации.

К узурпации относят также выборы, проведённые с грубыми нарушениями и фальсификация их результатов. Частным случаем узурпации является злоупотребление властными полномочиями.

Согласно п. 4 ст. 3 Конституции Российской Федерации:«Никто не может присваивать власть в Российской Федерации. Захват власти или присвоение властных полномочий преследуется по федеральному закону».

Узурпацию одной ветвью власти властных полномочий других ветвей власти призвана предотвращать реализация концепции разделения властей.

Древний Рим
Латинское usurpare первоначально означало «использовать» и лишь в поздний период римской истории стало означать «завладевать», «присваивать». Оформление понятия «узурпатор» исторически связано с кризисом III века, когда политическая нестабильность и насильственный захват власти были обычным явлением. Ранние примеры использования слова (usurpator) относятся ко второй половине IV века н. э. (Святой Амвросий, Аммиан Марцеллин, Аврелий Симмах).

Однако существующее в историографии разделение правителей древнего Рима и Византии на законных императоров и узурпаторов — скорее дань традиции, нежели указание на способ получения власти, так как многие императоры, классифицируемые как «законные», захватили власть в результате убийства предшественника, либо переворота, либо гражданской войны. По этой классификации, если одновременно существовало несколько враждующих императоров, то обычно победитель считался «законным императором», а остальные — «узурпаторами». Но есть и исключения, например, Флавий Иоанн в 423—425 годах правил всей Западной Римской империей единолично, тем не менее он считается узурпатором.

Узурпация в Китае
Как продукт культуры с мощными монархическими традициями, китайская классическая историография уделяла большое внимание легитимности власти (см. Небесный мандат). Помимо Ван Мана, она отмечает пример узурпации в царстве Лу (Ян Ху :zh:阳虎/陽虎, эп. Чуньцю), а также восхваляет ранних исторических персонажей за воздержание от узурпации при наличии её явной возможности (Чжоу-гун, князь Хуан царства Ци). С другой стороны, китайская мифология празднует примеры монархов, добровольно уступающих трон своему министру (Яо — в обход собственного сына; Шунь, Юй Великий).

Наиболее известным примером узурпации в позднеимперском Китае является Чжу Ди (император Юн-лэ династии Мин).

Германия

Япония
Узурпации императорской власти первыми сёгунами описана Рай-Санъё в «История Японии извне» («Нихонгайси»).

Dry Towns, Blue Laws and Border Crossings
There was a time, within my time, when towns were well known for being wet towns or dry towns. I'm not talking about the amount of rainfall, but rather whether a town allowed alcohol sales or not. I went to a dry wedding once and marveled at the resentment in the room as people found out about it. Imagine moving to a dry town and realizing it afterwards? Like that wedding people would simply carry in what they'd like to drink. Rules are meant to be broken, aren't they?
New Hampshire only has one "dry" town out of a combined 259 total towns, cities and "unincorporated places". That town is Ellsworth, a small town just west of I-93 between the Lakes Region and the White Mountains. There are only 83 residents in Ellsworth, and every one of them of drinking age have to go to another town to purchase alcohol. I'm guessing there aren't a lot of restaurants or stores selling alcohol in Ellsworth anyway, but if they have anything going for them it's that quirky statistic that makes them unique in the state. Live Free or Die indeed.
Neighboring Massachusetts by comparison has 8 dry towns. It used to be many more in my lifetime, but the trend is downward. Look, even the Puritans drank alcohol, and for generations it was safer than water in those early colonial years when life was hard and cholera was common. The Pilgrims brought beer across the pond and negotiated with Massasoit with aqua vitae. People went straight from the cold church to the warm tavern. Alcohol consumption was common right up to a century ago, when Prohibition crashed the party for the entire country. From 1920 until 1933 the United States was "dry". But rules are made to be broken, and organized crime and small time bootleggers, rum-runners and illegal moonshine stills came into prominence immediately afterwards.
Dry towns are bureaucracy in action, or simply inertia. Most dry towns today are in rural, sparsely populated places that don't have restaurant and store owners campaigning for change. Dry towns are a curiosity now, 100 years after Prohibition, but also a legacy to the cultural and political winds that blew across the country then. Being a wet town kid, I remember going with my grandfather to the bar where he would proceed to drink many beers in tiny glasses. That bar was on the edge of town, and that edge was wet meeting dry. How many people crossed the border over the years to have a couple of drinks and zig-zagged home? Now that former dry town sells much more alcohol than that old wet town. Money talks, and there's money in alcohol sales.
Sunday's were once a sacred day in Massachusetts, with Blue Laws that prohibited the sale of alcohol. So naturally residents drove across the border to states that didn't have blue laws. New Hampshire's southern border is dotted with old convenience stores that sold beer to eager Massachusetts residents on Sundays. New Hampshire built liquor stores on the highways for the quick and convenient sale of alcohol to out-of-staters. The Blue Laws are long gone, but "sin taxes" aren't. People still stop to fill up their trunks.
So Ellsworth, New Hampshire remains the lone holdout on the dry side of the law. I hope they always will be, as a reminder of where the country was 100 years ago. If we've learned anything over the last few years, it's that the political winds can blow in strange ways, and a few people can impose their views upon the masses given the opportunity. But if Prohibition teaches us anything, it's that Americans chafe at arbitrary rules and find ways around them. Our forefathers would recognize the debate either way, and marvel at the choices in the liquor stores.

There's something uniquely foreign about the experience, akin to visiting an ice palace in a fantasy movie. Humans aren't supposed to be in such places.

After 36 years in business, it was time to change things up a little bit. The Sack's youngest daughter (21), now a senior at UCLA, has inherited her father's passion and eye for design and is now creating part-time for the company until she graduates in the Spring. Her remarkable talent, and generational knowledge is evident in her designs. She hopes to eventually take over her parent's company and continue their legacy.
David Sack, a South African surfer with an accounting degree, came to Los Angeles in 1981. His sense of adventure led him looking for opportunity far from the world of finance and exposed him to the explosive street style of Los Angeles in the 80's. Inspired by his new surroundings, he tried making belts by hand in a tent in the backyard of his first apartment. It wasn't long before he traded his tent for a 5,000 square foot factory. Once David had the room and ability to turn his modest handmade belts into ornate beautiful accessories, his sister Denise jumped on board and Streets Ahead finally got itself a name. As the company continued to expand, so did the family behind it. David's wife Michelle joined the team and the company would soon go from the first humble location to a 28,000 square foot factory in Downtown, Los Angeles. David had fulfilled his dream of working in America and providing for his family and the offices of Streets Ahead now overflowed with belts, bags, leather, kids and even the occasional family pet. The constant flow of new employees and new ideas soon flooded the factory with endless opportunity, hard work and good times. When asked about the pros and cons of working with loved ones, Denise answered, "There is a loyalty among everybody and everyone takes the business to heart", summing up what truly is a family affair.
Streets Ahead Vintage
The reoccurring theme of family is rich throughout the history of Streets Ahead. David's creative gene can be seen in all his children. His first born, Sam, posed for the camera as the company's first model, alongside Penny Denise's adorable cocker spaniel. Michelle and David's sons Ben and Michael enjoyed any chance to play hide and seek with their cousins in the isles of sparkly treasures. His youngest daughter Ruth's adoration for dressing up soon sparked a genius idea that nobody had seen coming, Cuffs. This new dimension to the already heavily diverse belt and accessory line was a welcome addition. David and Michelle's children Jacqui (30), Sam (30), Benjamin (22), Ruth (21), and Michael (19), have now all reached adulthood, with a rich creative history under their belts (no pun intended).

Q: How to aim a check box in scripting when Checkbox got Text added (Livecycle Designer) I want to get a colored edge around a checkbox in lifecycle with scripts (only want it if it's not filled out, but that's not the point). Now the checkbox got caption added, so if I do this:
this.border.edge.color.value = "200, 100, 50";

the Script will color the whole control (also the text and not only the checkbox). How can I aim the checkbox only?

A: This code works for me to set the border around the checkbox itself to red. I added this code to the 'click' event:
this.ui.checkButton.border.edge.color.value="255,0,0";

A team of 7 went to Langley Park School on 29.1.19 to compete in the Bromley Schools Hockey competition – Tristan, Ed, James, Isaac, Olivia, Eva and Bella, accompanied by Mrs Parke. They played brilliantly, it being the first time they had played together in the same team, and won 2 games and drew 2. All enjoyed the competition and represented Balgowan excellently – well done!


1. What are the patient criteria to receive an Artificial Heart?
Those patients who ultimately end up on this device can come from two different camps, if you will. One may be an emergency type procedure where doctors are down in the OR and may be a surgery has gone bad and in that the type of intervention that they need will be an artificial heart. Or maybe a group of patients who have been on a heart transplant for quite some time and they have surpassed all medical surgical interventions and get to the point where the only type of therapy left for them to use would be the total artificial heart, in using this as a bridge to transplant for a human heart. So when we say bridge to transplant it just that a bridge to transplant is this individual needs a human heart and that human heart is not available and there needs to some type of therapy to keep them from dying while waiting for the human heart. So that's the role that the total artificial heart plays providing them circulatory support while waiting for the human heart.
2. How long can a patient live on an Artificial Heart?
In the hospital the average stay the patient will stay in hospital on this device is ninety days. We have one patient who has stayed on this as long as 413 days, that's the record here at the university.
3. What is it like for a patient to have an Artificial Heart?
Once these patients go on this device, they had been sick and now suddenly they are getting blood flow that they need because this device can put out anywhere between 6-8 litres of output. So they are now getting the cardiac output, blood flow, they become healthy and rest of the body organs get a chance to recuperate and now it's a waiting game. And in that waiting game it becomes more psychosocial type stuff for us. We hang out with them, we go with them for walks, we take them down to the gym, we actually get on treadmills, workout with weights; getting healthy and getting better which prepares them for the next surgery and the next surgery being when the heart becomes available and they get their heart transplant.

Q: Luck or skill in 3-person game Two friends and I have been playing a game that is a combination of skill and luck. (as most games are).  We assume that if the game was all luck and/or we all had the same skill level eventually the win% of all of us would approach 33%.
So what sample size would we need to show that one of us was "better" at the game?  That is if we played 50 games, what % of games (or how far from 33%) would someone need to demonstrate skill vs. luck (perhaps at a 95% or 99% likelihood).  What if we played 100 games or 200 games?
I would assume we would need a smaller percentage difference from 33% as the sample size went up.

A: There is a fundamental problem with analyzing multiplayer games. If 2 players can gang up on a third, then "equal skill" does not guarantee equal average results.
A more subtle phenomenon is that a player can become the "king-maker." The king-maker can't win, but can decide which opponent wins. If that player doesn't like you, the king-maker can decide that you don't win.
So, you need to add more assumptions. A reasonable model is that you are sampling independently from a distribution on a $3$-element set, and you would like to distinguish the distribution from $( \frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{3})$. The usual way to do this is with a multinomial test. You can also use simpler but less powerful binomial tests to test each frequency against $\frac{1}{3}$.
In practice I would use a normal approximation to the binomial distribution with continuity correction, and a threshold tighter than $0.05$ to reflect that any of the $3$ players might be strongest. Suppose the probability of winning is $\frac13$. The standard deviation after $n$ games is $\sqrt{n (\frac13)(1-\frac13)}$. A result of $40$ in $100$ games would be $6.67$ games above the mean, but $40$ should be viewed as the interval $[39.5,40.5]$, so it should be viewed as $6.17$ above the mean under the continuity correction. This is $6.17\bigg/(10\sqrt{\frac29}) = 1.3$ standard deviations above the mean, which wouldn't be strong evidence that you are stronger than average. At $43 (1.94\sigma), 44 (2.16\sigma),$ or $45 (2.37\sigma)$ you might conclude that you have strong evidence that you are stronger than average.


Behind it all is the Great Silence, broken only by the projection of new worlds and the re-absorption of old ones, the unutterable and unknowable Mystery, unreachable and untouchable by man. Tiny creature that he is, with the tiny mind he has, THAT is utterly beyond him. But from the Grand Mystery, the active God of which this planet Earth is a projection has in turn projected him. Here, communication in the most attenuated intuitive form is possible, even holy communion may be attained. This is the God, the higher power, to whom men instinctively turn in despair or in aspiration, in faith or in doubt. Sometimes a mere fragment of his work is revealed to a chosen prophet in the Cosmic Vision, an awe-filled experience.


Intelligent enterprise capture software that does more than capture and transform your paper documents into application-ready information. It helps you lower costs, minimize risk, and connects the information required to get your job done.
Unlike traditional back-office capture systems, today's enterprises require the ability to capture documents throughout the enterprise, both from knowledge workers and in dedicated mailroom environments.
Captiva Intelligent Enterprise Capture automatically connects content from documents with your business systems. Automated classification and data extraction tools transform documents into ready-to-process business data, saving money and increasing accuracy.
Captiva Intelligent Enterprise Capture isn't just for large enterprises. It's simple enough for smaller departments to implement quickly but robust enough to roll out across multiple departments and scale to support large, business-critical applications.

Introducing Watch, a New Platform For Shows On Facebook
: Life News
: 2020-02-03T07:19:20Z Saturday, 12 Aug 2017 - 09:30 PM
Watching video on Facebook has the incredible power to connect people, spark conversation, and foster community. On Facebook, videos are discovered through friends and bring communities together. As more and more people enjoy this experience,
we've learned that people like the serendipity of discovering videos in News Feed, but they also want a dedicated place they can go to watch videos. That's why last year we launched the Video tab in the US, which offered a predictable place to find videos on Facebook. Now we want to make it even easier to catch up with shows you love.
Introducing Watch
We're introducing Watch, a new platform for shows on Facebook. Watch will be available on mobile, on desktop and laptop, and in our TV apps. Shows are made up of episodes — live or recorded — and follow a theme or storyline. To help you keep up with the shows you follow, Watch has a Watchlist so you never miss out on the latest episodes.
Watch is personalized to help you discover new shows, organized around what your friends and communities are watching. For example, you'll find sections like "Most Talked About," which highlights shows that spark conversation, "What's Making People Laugh," which includes shows where many people have used the Haha reaction, and "What Friends Are Watching," which helps you connect with friends about shows they too are following.
We've learned from Facebook Live that people's comments and reactions to a video are often as much a part of the experience as the video itself. So when you watch a show, you can see comments and connect with friends and other viewers while watching, or participate in a dedicated Facebook Group for the show.
A Platform for Shows
Watch is a platform for all creators and publishers to find an audience, build a community of passionate fans, and earn money for their work. We think a wide variety of Facebook shows can be successful, particularly:
Shows that engage fans and community. Nas Daily publishes a daily show where he makes videos together with his fans from around the world. The Watchlist makes it easy for fans to catch every day's new episode.
Live shows that connect directly with fans. Gabby Bernstein, a New York Times bestselling author, motivational speaker, and life coach, uses a combination of recorded and live episodes to connect with her fans and answer questions in real time.
Shows that follow a narrative arc or have a consistent theme. Tastemade's Kitchen Little is a funny show about kids who watch a how-to video of a recipe, then instruct professional chefs on how to make it. Each episode features a new child, a new chef, and a new recipe. Unsurprisingly, the food doesn't always turn out as expected.
Live events that bring communities together. Major League Baseball is broadcasting a game a week on Facebook, enabling people to watch live baseball while connecting with friends and fellow fans on the platform.
We think Watch will be home to a wide range of shows, from reality to comedy to live sports. To help inspire creators and seed the ecosystem, we've also funded some shows that are examples of community-oriented and episodic video series. For example, Returning the Favor is a series hosted by Mike Rowe where he finds people doing something extraordinary for their community, tells the world about it, and in turn does something extraordinary for them.

'We didn't give Turkey the green light' - Mike Pompeo defends Syria withdrawal
Despite announcing US troops were pulling out of the region, Donald Trump describes Turkey's operation as "a bad idea".
By Alix Culbertson and Chris Robertson, news reporters

Turkish jets take off as smoke rises in Syria
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has defended Donald Trump's withdrawal of troops in Syria, saying the president did not give Turkey the "green light" to invade the country.
Speaking to PBS Newshour, Mr Pompeo said that during the phone call with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan "it became very clear that there were American soldiers that were going to be at risk and the president made a decision to put them in a place where they were out of harm's way".
He also added that he feels that Turkey has a "legitimate security concern" and waved off claims from Republican Senator Lindsay Graham that the attack could lead to a reemergence of IS.

The land assault in Turkey, alongside the Syrian National Army, came as US forces began withdrawing from the region on Sunday.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced the start of the campaign, which followed Donald Trump's decision on Sunday to alter US policy.
Mr Erdogan has since said Turkish forces have killed 109 militants.
As the start of the operation was announced, TV reports in Turkey reported airstrikes in the towns of Ras al-Ayn and Tal Abyad.

Mustafa Bali, a spokesman for the US-backed Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), said Turkish warplanes were targeting "civilian areas" in northern Syria, causing "a huge panic" in the region.
Other reports suggested mortar shells had been fired into Turkey from the Syrian side of the border.
There has been no independent confirmation of these claims.

NATO's secretary general has urged Turkey not to "further destabilise the region".
Jens Stoltenberg said Turkey "has legitimate security concerns" having suffered "horrendous terrorist attacks" and hosting thousands of refugees, but that it should act with "restraint" and any action should be "proportionate".
And France, Britain and Germany are preparing a joint statement to condemn the offensive while the UN Security Council will meet on Thursday.

The Syrian Kurdish forces were long-time US allies in the fight against the so-called Islamic State group.
But expectations of an invasion increased after Mr Trump's announcement on Sunday, although he also threatened to "totally destroy and obliterate" Turkey's economy if the Turkish push into Syria went too far.
Mr Trump's move has drawn criticism from both Republicans and Democrats at home as well as allies including France and Britain.
Senators Chris Van Hollen (Democrat) and Lindsey Graham (Republican) have launched a bipartisan bill that would punish Turkey for its invasion of northern Syria.
The lawmakers said they expect wide support from both parties.
Sen Graham, normally a staunch Trump ally, said on Twitter: "While the administration refuses to act against Turkey, I expect strong bipartisan support.

"Most members of Congress believe it would be wrong to abandon the Kurds who have been strong allies against ISIS."
However, Mr Trump defended it saying he is focused on the "BIG PICTURE" that does not include American involvement in "stupid endless wars" in the Middle East.
"Fighting between various groups that has been going on for hundreds of years. USA should never have been in Middle East," Mr Trump said in a series of tweets.
"The stupid endless wars, for us, are ending!"
Despite this, Mr Trump has said the US "does not endorse" Turkey's assault on Syria, and called the operation "a bad idea".
Turkey has been massing troops for days along its border and vowed it would go ahead with the military operation and not bow to the US threat.

One of these Billionaires Just Became the World's Richest Woman
By Rob Wile
https://money.com/worlds-richest-woman-bettencourt-alice-walton/
(Left) Francoise Bettencourt Meyers; (middle) Lilliane Bettencourt; and Alice Walton.
This week, the world's richest woman, L'Oreal heiress Liliane Bettencourt, died at the age of 94, leaving behind a personal estate worth an estimated $42.5 billion, according to Bloomberg.
By some accounts, that means that Alice Walton, one of the heirs to the Walmart fortune, is now the richest woman in the world, with a net worth of more than $38 billion.
But the true answer to the question of who is actually the world's richest woman following Bettencourt's death may be a bit more complicated.
In its obituary of Bettencourt, Bloomberg reported that it is crediting Bettencourt's only child, Francoise Bettencourt Meyers, 64, with all $42.5 billion of the fortune — meaning she would now be the world's richest woman.
That analysis may be premature, however, as Bettencourt's definitive will has not yet been made public. According to French inheritance law, which dates to the Napoleonic era, Bettencourt Meyers must receive at least 50 percent of her mother's estate. Bettencourt Meyers has spent her life publishing biblical exegeses and other academic works, in addition to serving as a L'Oreal director.
Though it is widely believed that Bettencourt's assets will devolve to her next of kin, it was revealed in 2011 that Bettencourt had created a separate will that left out her family from her life insurance policy, among other parts of her estate. Bettencourt Meyers ultimately sued, saying that will had been created while her mother was in an impaired state (she suffered from Alzheimer's), and the new will was subsequently voided, in part.
Bettencourt was embroiled in numerous other controversies in her life — including L'Oreal's history itself, which includes, allegedly, having profiting off of victims of Nazis (L'Oreal's founder, and Bettencourt's father, Eugène Schueller, was an avowed supporter of fascism). And about a decade, ago, Bettencourt became part of a political scandal that engulfed many of France's politicians accused of taking illegal payments.
So, it is possible we'll see one last twist in the tale of the woman's fortunes.
Meanwhile, the world's richest self-made woman, Zhou Qunfei of Lens Technology, maintains a net worth of about $10 billion according to Bloomberg.

Koeman: We can challenge for title
Written By Peter Hanson
https://images.daznservices.com/di/library/omnisport/d0/bf/ronaldkoeman_qo6i2uyt2m5h1m8i39dfdm22w.jpg?t=1817438417&w=500&quality=80
Victor Wanyama was the beneficiary of a mistake from Hull's third-choice keeper Eldin Jakupovic in the third minute, with his poor kick falling straight to the Kenyan who superbly guided a 40-yard effort into the unguarded goal.
That proved enough for Southampton to rack up a 10th win in their last 11 matches, and keep them second in the table.
Southampton's supporters greeted the final whistle at the KC Stadium with a chorus of 'we're going to win the league', and while manager Koeman is surprised by their superb start to the season, he feels their team spirit can help keep them at the top end of the top flight.
"Maybe, maybe [we can challenge for the title]," he said. "[We are] always positive. [If we] continue winning, continue up in the table then why not?
"Because we have a good team organisation. I think we showed that again.
"In the first half after the incredible [goal from] Victor, we were maybe a bit sloppy after that for 20 to 25 minutes and Hull dominated but didn't create any good chances, and didn't create any chances in the second half.
"The expectation is high. I like that because we like to win. We are football players and we like to win games. If you win games you will have good possibilities to maybe play in Europe, you never know.
"Everyone knows we have to work hard every day. The players are incredible in the way they act together, the spirit we showed today is important. We have to keep that."
Koeman also paid tribute to Wanyama for his goal and all-round contribution to Southampton's cause.
"He was fantastic," he added. "The goal was amazing, but also how he played today.
"He was strong, winning the battles, playing good on the ball, he had good positional play. It's fantastic to have those kind of players."


We met both Year 9 and Year 11 students at Harrow International School Shanghai. It was great to chat to pupils who have so many ambitions, and achievements ahead of them. We talked about their thoughts.
This year I'm taking Spanish, Geography and PE. I want to grow in confidence in my subjects and go for the top grades.
Right now we are focused on university choices. Personally I'm looking at English universities, and at Sports Science. This means that currently Geography and History are relevant, as sport is all-encompassing.
As for subjects that I will choose in the future, I'm not totally sure yet. I'm learning the flute and I want to pass grade 8 eventually.
I like English and Mandarin, so I'm considering translation, maybe a course in International Business.

GSCEs are of course important, and aside the exams, the model United Nations and world's scholars cup are what I am working on this year.
For me, the course and the university are equally important. There are many different types of courses for Physics, and I'll be applying in 6 months' time.
I will choose maths in year 11. As for my achievements, I plan to achieve grade 8 piano this year.
My passion is composition, so I am looking for Music options. I have written my own songs and I'm looking at finding opportunities to perform in the summer.

A no-brainer for bipartisanship
Michele Combs
By Michele Combs and Timothy Karr
Conservatives and Liberals Stand Up For Prisoner's Religious Freedom
In early July, a number of conservative civil rights groups joined the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), in writing a letter to the superintendent of the Rappahannock Regional Jail demanding that his jail respect the religious freedom and First Amendment rights of one of his prisoners.
In the letter sent to Superintendent Joseph Higgs, Jr., on July 9th, the ACLU - joined by Chuck Colson's Prison Fellowship group, the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, and the Rutherford Institute, among others - wrote that "based on concerns brought to our attention by Anna Williams, whose son was detained at the Rappahannock Regional Jail (the "Jail"). Ms. Williams, a devout Christian, wanted to support her son spiritually during his confinement at the Jail by sending him religious language, including passages from the Bible".
"No Bible studies in your home," says California county
Religious rights in America continue to deteriorate. A San Diego pastor and his wife have been told by county officials to stop holding Bible studies in their home. According to Fox News' Special Report on Thursday night, they have been subjected to interrogation and threatened with fines if they continue to hold Bible studies in their home. They have about ten to fifteen participants in their Bible studies.
Court victory for moment of silence (including silent prayer)
On Monday, a 3-judge panel from the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans ruled that the Texas law allowing moment of silence following the Pledge of Allegiance in school classes -- including the opportunity for silent prayer, reflection, meditation -- was constitutional. Besides Texas, 25 other states have moment of silence laws.
The Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott in a press release following the court's decision said: "The United States Constitution plainly protects young Texans' right to observe a moment of silence before school each morning. In an age where children are bombarded with distractions, beginning each school day with a moment of silence offers a welcome moment of quiet contemplation."
Black Pastor jailed for excercising First Amendment rights
Americans' religious rights and First Amendment rights continue to be eroded as evidenced by the jailing of a black pastor from a Berkeley, California church last week. He was the first person convicted -- two months ago -- under Oakland's law preventing pro-life protesters from coming within 8 feet of anyone entering an abortion clinic.
The Union City pastor, Walter Hoye, received a $1,000 fine, 30 days in jail (although in the future pro-lifers can be actually be put in jail for up to two years) and 3 years' probation. This courageous pastor told the judge: "I believe that an unjust law is no law at all." Pastor Hoye even answered Alameda Superior Court Judge Hing's question of whether or not he would abide by an order to stay 100 yards away from the Oakland abortion clinic with a principled "No."
Democrat Congressman Ron Kind's frugality is commendable
It was announced on Fox News last night that the House Administration Committee is considering a gigantic increase of $90,000 this year for the office budget of the average Member of the House of Representatives which now is over $1,200,000 per year. Staff salaries and other offices expenses come out of this annual budget. Normally, the annual increase in the budget is about $10,000 or so.
Democrat Congressman Ron Kind from Wisconsin opposes such a huge increase in the congressional office budget. Indeed, he believes the budget itself is too large. Ever since he became a Congressman some 12 years ago, he has returned some 10% of his annual budget back to the American taxpayers. Indeed, recently his total return to the American people went over $1 million.
The War on Christmas and the Loony Left's Governor Gregoire
Each Christmas season, the loony left keeps trying to outdo it's previous ridiculous self. This year's champion of the loony left is Washington state's Governor Christine Gregoire who allowed a tiny group of radical atheists to post a display right next to a Nativity scene depicting the Christmas story. Between the two displays is a huge bust of George Washington who must be rolling in his grave at the thought of politicians like Gregoire.
Our Children Need A Porn-Free Internet Service
The Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC,) Kevin Martin, is to be applauded for pushing a pornography-free web site for children and others who do not want to be assaulted with the absolute smut which is prevalent on the Internet today.
California's top court needs to uphold voters' decision on Proposition 8
During the past few years, there were three renegade state supreme courts which ruled that their state citizens could have homosexual "marriages." Each of those dictatorial decisions were by one vote, in the states of California, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. There was little doubt that the citizens of at least two of those states strongly opposed such a measure (California and Massachusetts.)
The effectiveness of unborn victims of violence laws
In an era when many pro-lifers are discouraged that the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision is never going to be overturned -- especially since a new pro-abortion president is expected to appoint pro-abortion justices to the United States Supreme Court -- pro-lifers can still be encouraged that the laws they help pass at the federal level and in state legislatures can make a difference in saving the lives of thousands of innocent unborn children.

One Company Tried to Turn the U.S. Air Force's Rescue Choppers Into Gunships
Warrior Maven Video Above: How Might Low-Yield Warheads Change Nuclear Attack?
By Joseph Trevithick, War Is Boring
On Oct. 5, 1968, U.S. Air Force HH-3E Jolly Green Giants raced to aid a U.S. Army reconnaissance team pinned down somewhere in southeast Asia. One helicopter tried to land and get the troops on board, but guerrillas chased it off with their machine guns. A second chopper took so many hits it crashed and burned.
As more than a dozen A-1 Skyraider ground attack planes and Army gunships pounded the enemy positions, three more HH-3Es arrived on the scene. The Air Force crews ultimately rescued four soldiers and two of the crew from the downed Jolly Green Giant, according to an official contemporary history.
While this incident was not necessarily typical, these missions were always dangerous business. The experience led the Air Force to try and turn its lumbering search and rescue choppers into heavily armed gunships.
One company was happy to offer various options — but none of the proposals panned out.
In 1890, John Emerson, a Union veteran of the American Civil War, founded a small manufacturing company in St. Louis, Missouri. The Emerson Electric Manufacturing Company started out building electric motors, but expanded into fabricating entire pieces of equipment, including fans, sewing machines and power tools.
During World War II, the firm, by then simply known as Emerson Electric, supplied powered gun turrets to companies building attack aircraft, patrol planes and bombers for American and allied forces.
After the war ended, the Pentagon in general and the Army in particular became interested in turning helicopters into fighting machines. As the idea of armed choppers gained traction, Emerson was well positioned to build the weapon systems.
By the late 1950s, the company had designed some of the first standard armament kits for the UH-1 Huey helicopter. And Emerson didn't stop there.
With the existing experience, the company's engineers cooked up a whole family of so-called "Tactical Armament Turrets." Sales literature boasted that customers could order versions that fit all sorts of helicopters armed with almost any machine gun or cannon that would fit inside the chosen model.
When the Air Force went looking to arm its rescue helicopters, Emerson was the logical choice. By the end of the 1960s, the firm's technicians had at least three different proposals ready, according to documents in the National Air and Space Museum's archives and online collections.
One of these options envisioned a turret with a fast-firing Minigun bolted underneath the HH-3E's rear cargo ramp. At the time, the chopper's basic armament package was gunner with M-60 machine guns on either side of the fuselage and another in the back.
Emerson contended that this arrangement gave the crew very limited options to deal with threats and no way to shoot at targets dead ahead. Instead, its single turret could turn a full 360 degrees to blast enemy troops wherever they were relative to the chopper.
The whole setup included 9,000 rounds of ammunition and four independent sighting stations. Crew members would use this gear to aim the gun remotely.
In 1967, the Air Force acquired eight more powerful HH-53B Super Jolly Green Giant rescue choppers, which could fly much further than the older HH-3Es. These helicopters also had three gunners at the side doors and rear cargo ramp, but manning Miniguns.
Again, this limited where the crew could actually take shots at enemy troops on the ground, according to Emerson. So the company suggesteda more flexible, harder-hitting package for the bigger choppers.
As with the HH-3Es, to give rescue crews more time to find and pick up friendly aviators and troops, Sikorsky had added small stubby wings on either side of the HH-53B's fuselage for drop tanks full of fuel. Emerson's engineers figured they could install turrets with automatic cannons in the front of these pylons instead.
Each cannon would be able to swivel nearly 180 degrees, providing near complete coverage around the chopper. Emerson said it could supply the kit armed with either 20-millimeter Mark 12 or M-24A1 cannons or the Army's experimental XM-140 30-millimeter gun.
The final idea was significantly simpler. Emerson had developed a stand-alone gun pod around its Minigun-armed turret, complete with its own ammunition supply.
Crews could hang the same swiveling guns from the armament racks on either the HH-3Es or the HH-53Bs. Technicians would only need to add the sighting and control equipment to the helicopter, along with the associated wiring.

The Air Force apparently decided the first two proposals were too complicated and bulky. The fixed guns would have weighed down the already sluggish choppers, limiting how far they could fly and how many people they could carry.
But the flying branch was interested in the podded weapons. In theory, with these guns, crews could decide whether or not to carry the extra firepower depending on the situation.
Air Force officials purchased a number of the systems for tests and quickly shipped them off to southeast Asia. In practice, pilots weren't thrilled with the systems.
"Pilots were not happy about having to choose between fuel and weapons," according to an entry on the U.S. Air Force Helicopter Pilot Association website. "Most of the time they choose the fuel."
For rescue teams, trading fuel for firepower would mean less time to do their job. While both the the HH-3E and HH-53B could refuel in mid-air, crews might would still have to break off a search to top up their tanks.
If they were in the middle of a rescue, a low fuel situation could be especially dangerous. On top of that, the bulky pods made the choppers harder to maneuver just like Emerson's proposed fixed gun packs.
So, the Air Force dropped the turrets, returning to the conventional arrangement of three gunners armed with Miniguns. Rescue crews continued to rely heavily on ground attack aircraft and dedicated gunship helicopters to beat back enemy forces.
Emerson did sell a number of turrets and pods to the U.S. Navy for its rescue choppers. Naval aviators came to the same conclusions about the weapons as their Air Force cousins.
The firm continued to develop more weapon systems for helicopters and aircraft, but met with little success and ultimately dropped the Tactical Armament Turret line. Still headquartered in Missouri, Emerson continues to make a wide array of other electrical products.
