It's November 22, 1946. The New York-Telegram carried a half-page story by Ed Wallace on John Wesley Hardin. Hardin, arguably the most famous of the frontier outlaws, did time in the Texas State Penitentiary at the Huntsville "Walls" prison. Despite spending long periods of time in the solitary cell of the prison's East Wing, Hardin finished his law degree while incarcerated there. After serving 17 years, he was released and practiced law in El Paso. John Wesley Hardin was shot in the back and murdered in 1895.
While many were reading the article about a long-ago outlaw, two convicts at the "Walls" Unit down in Huntsville, Texas were acting out their own outlaw tale. Fred Wren, 23, was five feet, five and one-half inches tall and 134 pounds. He was serving two years for burglary out of Deaf Smith County. Twenty-six year old Ralph Dunlap had brought his five feet, nine-inch, 164-pound frame all the way from Shelby, Ohio to wind up in the Texas Prison System. Dunlap was given 2 years for burglary by a Coryell County jury.
Both convicts worked as telephone linemen at the prison. Both were sent with Guard Ben LaRue to repair a telephone in one of the prison-owned houses across the street from the prison. The occupant of the house was on duty at the prison and no one else was home at the time.
At about 3:30 p.m. the convict housekeeper returned from the prison to his job at the house and surprised the two convicts who were changing into some free-world clothes that they found in the closet. The guard lay on the floor unconscious and groaning. Near his body was a bloody mechanic's hammer with strands of hair stuck to it. He was terribly beaten around the head, face, and shoulders. The outlaws threatened to kill the housekeeper with the guard's .38 caliber pistol but changed their minds. Instead, they tied his hands and feet with neckties from the closet. After struggling for about a half hour, the housekeeper was able to partially free himself from the cloth shackles and crawl to the front door and began yelling for help. His shouting attracted the attention of a picket guard who notified Warden A. C. Turner. Guard Ben LaRue was taken to the "Walls" hospital where he died shortly thereafter.
Meanwhile, the escaped convicts gained access to Taxi Cab 400, a new maroon Chevrolet, driven by John Hubbard. They forced him to drive on the back roads to a deserted area near Kurten, between Bryan and North Zulch. The two desperadoes then forced the driver out of the car and made him remove his clothes and replace them with the bloodstained clothing they said were those of the guard who had been beaten. After they sped away, Hubbard walked about two miles where he flagged a state highway patrol car and told the officers his story. The patrolmen were part of a large manhunt team (Bryan Night Chief of Police, W. A. Wickham, reported that about a thousand men were in a posse in the vicinity) and radioed all other cars. The search immediately went into high alert but somehow the fugitives managed to elude the net.
The next day, six days before Thanksgiving, 1946, the two desperate convicts met a most unlikely match. In need of a less noticeable vehicle, they stopped a schoolteacher "for a ride" and then took his car at gunpoint. The teacher broke free in Calvert and notified authorities. Local officers, state highway patrol, Texas Rangers and even officers in an airplane were in hot pursuit, yet the elusive convicts managed again to outdistance their chasers. Their car got stuck in heavy mud near Rosebud. They stopped a boy on a tractor and asked him to pull them out, but it too became stuck.
Wren walked to the nearby home of Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Burch. Mr. Burch was a mild-mannered, 72-year old, retired farmer. He had a slight build of five-feet ten inches and 140 pounds. He was reading the paper about a bank robbery that occurred the previous day at Mount Calm, in the Rosebud area of Texas. His wife noticed that someone was approaching the door of the house on foot. Mr. Burch got up to see what the man wanted but before he could do so the man entered the room. Wren demanded the keys to the car, which was parked in the yard. He pointed a gun at Mr. Burch and repeated the demand. Ms. Burch, who was standing nearby, grabbed the man's hand and pushed the gun aside. The convict shoved her against the bed and onto the floor and the gun discharged, the shot going through the mattress. Mr. Burch attacked the intruder with his fists. The convict tried to shoot Mr. Burch but could not get the gun in position and it went off again, this time shooting a hole the ceiling. Convict Wren then turned to run out of the house but Burch was still flaying away at him with his fists. As they neared the outer door the other convict, Dunlap, ran up and shouted for Wren to toss him the gun. As the first fugitive attempted to pass the gun to the newcomer the gun discharged again and the second man fell. Burch now had a firm hold on the Wren's collar from behind. Wren attempted to shoot Burch but the shot went through his own neck instead. Authorities arrived at about this time to find Mr. Burch astride Wren.
One of the wounded convicts, Fred Wren, died shortly after the fight and the other, Ralph Dunlap, was critically wounded. Dunlap recovered and later was given a life sentence for his role in Guard Ben LaRue's murder.
T. A. Burch told a reporter later that day, "All I had was my bare fists, but Mister I used 'em." Mr. Burch also revealed this interesting piece of information: He said that the convicts were wounded simply because they tried to make him give them the keys to his car… and the keys were in the car all of the time.

Our teacher, Master Zhu Tian Cai is the 19th disciple of Chen Style Taijiquan from Chenjiagou (Chen village). This is where Taijiquan first originated, and gave birth to the many styles of Taiji we see today, such as the Yang, Wu and so on. The village is well known for its unique brand of martial arts, which later became known as Taijiquan — Chen Style Taijiquan. And almost everyone, young and old, in the village knows Taiji – Chen style of course!
The Chen Style has always been taught within the Chen family clan. However, this rule has since been relaxed somewhat, although the highest secrets of the art are still only imparted to direct kin. So, lucky for us, we do still get some martial application know-how as and when Teacher sees fit! Since young, Teacher Zhu has learnt the art under the 18th disciple, Chen Zhao Ku and Chen Zhao Pi, who were his uncles.
Due to his love of the art, Master Zhu has won many gold medals in China, at the National and District levels, as well as in many international competitions. Together with his fellow disciples in the Chen village, he and another three have made a deep impression in the world of Taiji, and are known collectively as the 4 Golden Arhats or 4 Tigers of Chenjiagou Village.
Teacher Zhu's golden maxim to us is "Practice 10 sets everyday of Lao Jia Yi Lu, 5 in the morning and another 5 at night!" Mind you, 1 set is about 15 to 20 minutes on average.
He has a long-standing reputation as a top, international Taiji instructor within the Taiji arena. He has taught students from Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Korea, USA, Italy, Germany, and even Czechoslovakia. My personal opinion is that he has perfected his style of Taiji to a level of artistry. Extremely fluid and circular movements throughout characterize his style, and each routine is completed as if in one long, deep continuous flow.
The one lesson that Zhu Tian Cai cherishes most from his master Chen Zhao Pi is that Taiji Quan (Tai Chi Chuan) is lively ("Ling Huo"). If you are accustomed to the fast Kung Fu pace, you wonder what is "lively" about Taiji. You have seen Taiji presentations during the "Masters Demonstration" at many Wushu championship meets or festivals. In contrast, the audience is always more delighted at the rapid-fire moves, the high-flying kicks and the low-to-the-ground stances of Wushu, from the sound of its applause. Yet, you are aware that Taiji Quan enjoys a high regard in the Chinese martial arts world. So you hang on to the recitation of the Taiji master's lineage and legacy preceding the demonstration, look forward to a revelation of something about art. More than what you see in parks.
This is only the obvious aspect, which is not surprising, as Chen Taiji is not practiced slowly for the sake of slowness. The slow-motion practice is a means to an end, to discern and to experience the motion in detail, body and mind. This method of training "softens" the body so that it becomes sensitive. When the practice pace is slow, you must not be tense ("Jiang"), and when it is fast, the movements must not be confused or scattered ("Luan" or "San"). You can then execute movements fast like Kung Fu moves without tenseness but with a relaxed body and a clear, sharp mind. Chen Taiji does recognize practice in speed and power. The "soft" practice is misleading, but is a way to build power (internal) or "hardness." The Taiji movements appear soft, but they are not weak.
The not so obvious aspect of this idea of liveliness is to be found in what resides in theTaiji motion. The basis to Chen Taiji motion is the "silk-reeling energy" ("Chan Si Jin") that drives it. This energy is fundamental to Chen Taiji practice, and it is behind the spiraling and coiling motion that defines the character of this Taiji style. This energy expresses itself more and more as "Qi" develops, when the practitioner rids the body of tension and works to calm the mind. The motion then is driven by Qi, which is stirred by the mind-intent ("Yi"). In this way the coiling motion becomes lively, charged with silk-reeling energy. With this energy moving internally, Master Zhu's form exudes power with "Peng Jin" as he flows from posture to posture, like water running in a brook. Without this internal energy the form will look dull and wooden. Without silk-reeling energy there is no Chen Taiji. Without Peng Jin there is no Taiji Quan.
The least obvious aspect of "Ling Huo" deals with Taiji's application, and this is what makes Taiji such an effective martial art. Because it is hidden from the naked eye, it is a source of mystery and wonderment. Can this slow motion Taiji practice stack up against the quick and powerful kicks and punches?
To demonstrate this yi, Master Zhu throws a "Fajin" punch and the fist flies out like the crack of whip. He does more to show how he summons his body into action, by doing one Fajin after another, with his elbows, shoulders and hands. Each is as stunningly powerful as the last. Devastating though the power is, it is more important to note that this explosive release of collected internal energy from the body can be called upon in any situation as needed in a martial application.
The premise of Taiji Quan's application is that whatever the intended use of a form or posture may be, it is Ling Huo; that is, it is not restricted or "dead." The coiling "Jin" has two orientations and three degrees of motion in space. Take the simplest point affecting a martial use – the distance between yourself and the opponent. The common upper rollback movement in the form, where the arms move in an upper arc, is intended to intercept an opponent's attacking arm, deflecting and throwing him/her off. At a closer range, this intended use may not apply, but the internal energy can be directed to the elbow to strike out, or closer still, to the shoulder for a shoulder-fajin to damage. There is yet another category besides Fajin. There are many small subtle movements that require a short hidden burst of force, or "an jin" to execute in martial use. The liveliness of Nei Jin is at play here too.
In Dec 1999, Master Zhu was in Los Angeles teaching a class, and arrived at the move called "Xiao Qin Da" (Small Grapple Counter), which is a combination of movements. Lao Chen, a student, asked him about the use of the move. This move has small and subtle movements that are not apparent. The master detailed the motions. Firstly, the small rotation of the wrist frees an attacker's grappling hold ("Qinna") on the arm. The attacker senses that he is losing his hold, and notices the defender's advancing foot coming in to step on his shin. So he retreats. The defender follows, and steps into the opponent's domain, with the arms pushing him off. He resists the push, but the move allows for this with an upper rollback and a counter offensive thrust. Thus Master Zhu expounded as he showed the intricacies of the movements. He then gestured to Lao Chen to assist in a demonstration. Lao Chen grabbed and held the master's wrist. He was bigger and his grip was strong. Master Zhu proceeded to free the hold by a screw-like motion with the wrist, as he had done many times before. But instead of the sequence of advancing steps, as seen and explained earlier, the class was surprised to see Lao Chen flying off, knocking down a fellow student ten feet away.
The class was stunned and awed at the same time. The students wanted to know what mysterious hidden power the master used. He replied that it was Lao Chen's own force that threw him off. As he uttered those words, he was hearing almost the same words spoken by his own master in chiding a fellow student in the early training years in Chenjiagou (the Chen Village).
Zhu Tian Cai was practicing push-hands with this student who was five years older than the average teenagers then, and so was bigger and stronger. Young Zhu had learned not to be intimidated by size and strength. His master had taught them to keep working on "Peng, Lu, Ji, An," and that they were not to be discouraged if a physically stronger and bigger person prevailed, as it did not mean that the latter had better skill. The young students, heeding the Master's words, would usually yield by backing away when this older student pushed hard at them. So it appeared that he was chasing the lanky kids around during the push-hand sessions.
One day, this older student pushed hard at Zhu, as he always did before. Zhu found his ground this time. So instead of backing away, he stayed and absorbed the incoming force by a large rollback. Unfortunately, the charging student's index finger was caught in Zhu's hand and broke like a brittle twig. The pain was excruciating and the next day the finger swelled. He complained to the master that Zhu used force on him to break his finger. The master said it was his own physical force that caused it, and not little Zhu's.
As Master Zhu attempted to free his wrist from Lao Chen's powerful grip, the latter pressed harder still. Master Zhu relaxed and reversed his coiling motion. His hand could "hear" that Lao Chen slipped, and instantly, he let out a shoulder Fajin striking him and sent him flying. The body's sensitivity to "listen" to the opponent's force, and to respond accordingly to the changes, is the third manifestation of the hidden liveliness inherent in the body's Peng Jin. This hidden element of Ling Huo is paramount in the martial application of Taiji Quan. This very element is also the cause of amazement that continues to astound fans and Wushu aficionados alike, and feeds into the mystery of the art.
Master Zhu certified Shifu Marquez has 20th Generation Disciple.

User FlatFarmers beautiful Balcony Greenhouse has been moving outdoors. Still some things to finish up with this Mini Greenhouse, but it's looking great already.
Mini Greenhouse has finally moved outdoors. Sharing some pictures.
So proud to have a new and beautiful DIY Balcony Greenhouse shared on the forum today! Thank you FlatFarmer for sharing. Check out the pictures of this beautiful Mini Greenhouse in this post.
My Mini Greenhouse is done. :-) Have been working on it for a few days, and here is the result. Here is a Step-by-Step Guide of how I built it. What do you think?
Here are some image updates from the Mini Greenhouses where we grew tomatoes, cucumbers and salad.
I loved my new mini greenhouses.. but I quickly realized that it required quite a lot of watering. So I constructed a bottom with smal wheels, and built a simple water reservoir in the bottom.
I love my Mini Greenhouses. Couldn't wait! I put them together the same evening as the delivery arrived.

Their vision started modestly and organically, and even though they've grown to become an international corporation, they have always remained faithful to the founding principles of four friends who wanted to create something special for the people of Australia.


Spiritual Emphasis Week 2019 continues... Read on for Pastor Tim's notes on today's session!
"Our second session we focused on the idea of being "Raised to New Life" and focused on Colossians 6:4-15 and Our break-out sessions looked at Hebrews 10:19-23.
The purpose of the session is to help students see that God's Son was prophesied, came to earth, lived a perfect, sinless life, died for our sins and rose again to offer us life abundant and everlasting. Because Jesus died for us, we are raised to new life. We find encouragement in Colossians, we are secured in what Christ has done. We can be rooted in Him and through that experience some amazing things!
• You learned so much about the Old Testament, and the Temple, and how it helped really explain Jesus' death. What was one thing you remembered?
• How would you describe the Gospel to someone who has never heard it before?
• Where do you stand with God? Is there anything I can do to help your spiritual walk with Him?
• What were some of the "foundational statements" in Colossians and how do they impact you?
Be willing to take some time and share your story with your student. Walk them through what made you decide to follow Christ, ask them about their doubts and struggles, and spend some time praying with them.


Concerns have been raised after the number of food outlets in Hyndburn scoring zero for hygiene with the Food Standards Agency has risen sharply.
Twenty establishments in the borough carry the lowest possible food hygiene rating. When the Observer carried out the same survey of FSA ratings in August 2015, there were just four.
Most of the premises have been rated within the last 12 months.
In comparison, neighbouring Rossendale has no zero rated and only four one rated premises, Blackburn had no zero rated premises and Burnley had only one zero rated premises.
The Observer attempted to contact all 20 establishments for a comment.
Sophie Bhojani, owner of Latte Love in Rishton, said its zero rating was due to incorrect paperwork.
Owner Imran Khan, who has run Kenny's News and Booze in Church for 11 years, said: "The problem we had was some paperwork, no hot water in the toilet and a hole in the front, which we have filled in.
"All the things they said we have to do we have now corrected and we are just waiting for them to come back and give us a new rating.
Nisar Khan, who runs the Pizza Dome in Great Harwood, said: "We were given a zero because our certificates for waste management and pest control were not on the premises.
Coun Peter Britcliffe, who used to own a cafe in the Market Hall, said the ratings reflected badly on the borough.
Shahed Mahmood, from the Hyndburn Chamber of Trade, said the onus is on business owners to keep up with paperwork.
Coun Paul Cox, Hyndburn council's cabinet member for environmental services, said inspections had been stepped up over the past year and this could explain a rise in establishments scoring poorly.
"There has been an increase in the number of inspections carried out at food premises over the past 12 months and the food team are also carrying out re-visits to business which were noncompliant.
"The scores are a reflection on both the number of inspections and the council's tough stance on premises which fail to comply with FSA guidelines.
"As well as keeping their kitchens clean and food safe, businesses must keep clear and up to date records of their food safety management practices.

First United Methodist Church of South Miami, 6565 Red Road, is a member of the United Methodist Committee on Relief. Their ongoing programs in Haiti include one called Money-Wise, designed to help women who run small businesses.
"If there is a way that we could help these women recover, we will," Crutchfield said. "We will continue to support them in the way that we already have."
It may take a while to assess the damage and deliver the aid. The Miami Herald has reported destruction through Jacmel and other southeastern cities. Many farmers have lost their livestock and crops. Rivers such as the Fesles Marigot Grand River have flooded and damaged roads leading to mountain villages.
The Riviera Presbyterian Church, 5275 Sunset Drive in South Miami, is also planning to help Haiti. Pastor Laurie Krau is a member of the Presbyterian Disaster Assistance national response team, which has focused on helping Haiti before. The team met to discuss the needs Tuesday.
"We have a special account to relief misery," Kraus said. "We have done benefits and will continue to help in any way we can."
Efforts at the Epiphany Catholic Church, 8235 SW 57th Ave. in South Miami, focus on the remote mountain areas of Port-de-Paix and Gros Morne. At the church's school, students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade are encouraged to donate to a program that sponsors 30 schools in the area.
The program is called Amor en Acción, Spanish for "Love in Action." It runs under the auspices of the Archdiocese of Miami to support the education of about 4,500 students and provide meals to about 2,500 in Haiti.
"It's a beautiful program. We have donated uniforms and have been committed to helping them for years," said Gloria La Saga, of the Epiphany School. "We even have pictures of the Parish De Costiere here."
The program also accepts donations for medications such as antibiotics and medical equipment to target the storm's long term impact. Because of the flooding, the deadly cholera epidemic could worsen.
"The devastation was less than we feared, so we are waiting for direction from our partners in Haiti," said Teresita Gonzalez, of Amor en Acción. "Haitians are a strong people. They wake up the next morning and try to figure out how to get on with their lives. They are very perseverant, but they can use our help."

The work will be first carried out in 2D culture of human dermal fibroblasts then extended to a novel 3D in-vitro system which we have established and validation as a reliable surrogate for the human dermis. Intervention strategies will be explored in the computational model and subsequently tested in-vitro. The work will involve: generation of high throughput time series data; development and application of bioinformatics workflows to analyse the data and establish networks of molecular interactions governing the maintenance of ECM; building, calibration and validation of dynamic computational model(s) in vitro; use of the model(s) to identify intervention strategies to modify network behaviour; testing of molecules in-vitro that could be used in potential treatments to improve skin healthcare.

Rotary Screen For Screening Aggregate
Rotary screen is a kind of equipment commonly used in beneficiation. Through the continuous rotation of the screen body, large pieces of waste rock can be thrown out, greatly improving the next separation operation. When the roller screen works, the motor connects the reducer with the roller device through the coupling, and drives the roller device to rotate around its axis. The materials are turned over and rolled, and the materials are screened out one by one through different meshes. The materials stuck in the mesh can also be ejected to prevent blocking.
Operating principle of rotary screen
The drum device is installed on the rack obliquely, and is composed of motor, reducer, drum device, rack, screen and inlet and outlet. The motor is connected with the roller device through the coupling through the reducer, and the roller device is driven to rotate around its axis. When the material enters the drum device, due to the inclination and rotation of the drum device, the material on the screen surface will be turned over and rolled, so that the qualified material (products under screen) will be discharged through the discharge port at the bottom of the rear end of the drum, and the unqualified material (products on screen) will be discharged through the discharge port at the tail of the drum. Due to the overturning and rolling of the material in the drum, the material stuck in the screen hole can be ejected to prevent the screen hole from blocking. The principle and structure of the roller screen are almost the same as that of the roller screen, which is due to the difference in people's understanding and nomenclature.
LDHB rotary screen features
1.The mesh is not easy to block.
2.Stable operation and low noise.
3.Working principle and structure of roller screen: simple structure and convenient maintenance.
4.The screening cylinder can be closed, which is easy to close and collect dust.
5.The whole machine has high reliability and less one-time investment.
6.Special screen is adopted, with high screening efficiency and long service life.

Q: Get number range intersection In addition to this question Find number range intersection I want to get the intersection range of 2 time ranges. So my question is
What is the efficient mathematical/algorithmic way to get the time range of the intersection of two number ranges ?

A:     public BTraceStatsTimeRange getOverlap(BTraceStatsTimeRange other) {
    if (!intersect(other)) {
        return NULL;
    }
    long startOther = other.start;
    long endOther = other.end;
    long minEnd = Math.min(end, endOther);
    long maxStart = Math.max(start, startOther);
    return new BTraceStatsTimeRange(Math.min(minEnd, maxStart), Math.max(
            minEnd, maxStart));
}

I am tired today .... ;-)

A: This pseudo-C should do the trick:
R_TYPE Intersection(P_TYPE start1, P_TYPE start2, P_TYPE end1, P_TYPE end2)
{

    if(max(start1, start2) <= min(end1, end2))
    {
        return( min(end1, end2) - max(start1, start2) );
    }

    return(DISJOINT);
}

R_TYPE is your 'custom' return type, P_TYPE is your 'custom' parameter type.  You can set them to any valid signed scalar number type (int, float, etc.)  Use #define DISJOINT ... to set DISJOINT to some value that would normally be out of range (-1 or MAX_INT, etc.)
If you have some custom DATE_TIME_TYPE, you'll have to change this to accommodate that.  For instance, if you define a struct like:
typedef union
{
    unsigned char date_time[7];
    struct
    {
        unsigned char second;
        unsigned char minute;
        unsigned char hour;
        unsigned char day;
        unsigned char month;
        unsigned int  year;
    }
}DATE_TIME_TYPE;

You might still be able to get by doing a straight comparison between values (assuming little-endian and 8-bit addressing), but you'll have to account for carries and underflow when subtracting individual days, minutes, etc.

A: Subtract each of the endpoints of the first range from each of the endpoints of the second range. If you have:

*

*All positive or negative results: the ranges are disjoint

*One non-negative or negative result: the intersection is the operands for this result

*Two non-negative results: the range is the non-common operand in both calculations

*All results are 0: the most degenerate ranges ever
vectors = (
  ((1, 3), (2, 4), '2-3'),
  ((1, 4), (2, 3), '2-3'),
  ((1, 2), (3, 4), 'Disjoint'),
  ((2, 4), (1, 3), '2-3'),
  ((2, 3), (1, 4), '2-3'),
  ((3, 4), (1, 2), 'Disjoint'),
)

for a, b, c in vectors:
  print c, a, b
  for x in a:
    for y in b:
      print x, y, x-y

A: If someone needs the javascript version is here:
function findRangeIntersection(a1, a2, b1, b2) {
    if (Math.max(a1, b1) <= Math.min(b2, a2)) {
        return Math.min(a2, b2) - Math.max(a1, b1);
    }
    return Number.NaN;
}

VBG Group
VBG Group/
VBG Group celebrates 70 years!
Sun, Jan 03, 2021 10:00 CET Report this content
From a basement in Vänersborg to a global industry group operating in 17 countries, sales in even more countries and system solutions being used all over this world, as well as on the planet Mars. The VBG Group has been making this journey for the last 70 years. A piece of Swedish industrial history that is still going on.
Road safety in focus
It is the 3rd of January 1951 and Herman Krefting decides to found the "Vänersborgskopplingen" company, today's VBG Group origin. Herman Krefting is an active civic citizen and very interested in road safety issues. The industry is booming in Sweden and road transport is increasing. Nasty accidents are common and Herman Krefting sees an opportunity to create safer transport with his technical skills.
"There's nothing more dangerous than a driverless trailer", Herman is supposed to have said when he started his business. The desire to create a safer society has accompanied the VBG Group since its inception and is still the driving force behind the company.
Global Industry Group
Today, the VBG Group is a global industrial group with operations in 17 countries and more than 1500 employees. Over the years, the company has acquired and divested businesses. The company made a major change in the 90s when it sold its division for passenger car tow bars and acquired the German company Ringfeder. In the 2000s, the company chose to divest its fifth-wheel business and in 2016 carried out the largest acquisition in the company's history when it bought the Swedish Mobile Climate Control Group Holding AB.
VBG Group has a unique ownership structure that Herman Krefting laid the foundation for in the 80s when he formed three foundations to which he transferred a large proportion of shares to ensure future development of the company and safeguard employees' jobs. These foundations became VBG Group's principal owners.
Two foundations were formed to create long-term security for employees, the foundations Stiftelsen SLK-anställda and Stiftelsen VBG-SLK. Every year, the foundations award scholarships to employees for further education.
The third and the largest foundation – both in terms of shareholding and voting rights – is the Herman Krefting Foundation for Allergy and Asthma Research. Herman Krefting himself was asthmatic and could see himself the progress science and research could achieve.
Through this unique ownership structure, VBG Group's profit over the years have in turn led to asthma and allergy research receiving approximately SEK 165 million. In 2020, a collaboration was initiated with Universeum in Gothenburg, where the foundation will donate SEK 50 million to a new life-science centre.
VBG Group AB's B-share was listed in 1987 and is currently on the Mid Cap list on Nasdaq Stockholm. In addition to the foundations, there are currently over 4,000 shareholders who have successfully collaborated with the company ever since the listing. An investment in VBG Group has over the years given a good return.
A successful concept for VBG Group is the acquisition of businesses with strong brands that can be leaders on their niche markets or have the potential to be. VBG Group also has a solid industrial knowledge that permeates throughout the business.
VBG Group CEO, Anders Birgersson, says this about the company's development:
"Clearly, we have been successful in our strategy for the last 70 years. We also have the benefit of our unique ownership structure being able to act long-term. I foresee and believe that we have a very exciting future ahead of us".
Today, the Group consists of seven strong product brands offering solutions in climate systems for buses and off-road vehicles, solutions for mechanical power transmission, as well as energy and shock absorption, truck couplings, automatic snow chains together with sliding roofs and roof arches for trucks and railway wagons. These solutions help in society with everything from damping to protect buildings in the event of earthquakes to transporting children safely to school.
Anders Birgersson, who himself will be celebrating 20 years as CEO of the company in 2021, is looking forward to leading the company into the future:
"2020 was a different year on many levels and I look forward with hope to 2021. Creating a safer society through our solutions is and will remain our driving force. Today, we know that we are making a difference in the businesses and markets where we step in. I look forward to continuing the path we are on. We shall acquire and develop businesses and spread our know-how globally. What we do, we do long-term and sustainably".

The image shows the Coal Sack, the Southern Cross, Eta Carinae and various young star clusters as well as the Milky Way.
Like many astrophotographers, Greg Redfern takes images of the night sky. But his unique view, from a ship on the ocean, lends a particular style to his images.
"I give astro-space lectures on cruise ships so I took my astrophotography passion with me to sea and the results have been quite gratifying," Redfern wrote in an email to Space.com.
The four main stars of the famous Southern Cross constellation are Acrux, Becrux, Gacrux, and Delta Crucis. Like the Big Dipper of the northern sky, the Southern Cross indicates the location of the pole and as such is often utilized by navigators.
For this wide angle shot Redfern used a Nikon 14mm f/2.8 at a 13 second exposure at ISO 5000. And his images are dependent on sea conditions.
"If there is too much motion in the ocean I don't even try to get a pic unless it is of the sea or clouds or weather," he said.
Editor's note: If you have an amazing skywatching photo you'd like to share it with Space.com and our news partners for a possible story or image gallery, please contact managing editor Tariq Malik at spacephotos@space.com.

I am often contacted by people for advice on buying telescopes, particularly as gifts around Christmas. So if you are one of those lucky people with a shiny new telescope (or just want to have a fun night observing) then your eyes are about to be opened to a wonderful Universe. But what can you point your 'scope at? Deciding what to look for can be tricky, so here are my top ten objects for beginners.
Obvious perhaps, but choosing the right time to look at the moon is crucial to what you will see. The worst time to study the Moon is when it is full because very few shadows are being cast except around the very edge or limb. Shadows are great at enhancing surface detail so avoid a full moon. Concentrate study along the line between the dark and light -- this is called the "terminator" and its here where surface detail is enhanced well. Experiment between low and high magnification.
The largest planet in the solar system is very well placed this time of year for observations. Not only will you be able to pick out detail in the cloud belts of this gas giant but at certain times you will be able to see the Great Red Spot, a hurricane larger than Earth that has been raging for centuries. Look for the four Galilean moons either side of the planet to and notice how they change their position night after night. Medium to high magnification.
This beauty is a morning object but well worth getting up early for. With a magnification from around 25x and above you will be able to detect the stunning ring system the planet is famous for. If the atmosphere is steady and you use a high enough magnification you can even see gaps in the rings such as the Cassini Division. Just like Jupiter, Saturn has a family of moons but fewer are visible with smaller telescopes. Medium to high magnification.
One of the most underrated stunners of the night sky is this multiple star system. It's found in the constellation Andromeda to the East of the famous Andromeda Galaxy. Through small telescopes the widest components can be seen as beautiful golden yellow and blue stars. Larger telescopes and good viewing conditions will reveal the blue star is actually another binary star. Medium to high magnification required and a large aperture telescope to reveal third star.
Perhaps the best of all the nearest major galaxies is the Andromeda Galaxy which lies a staggering 2.3 million light-years away. As its name suggests it is found in the constellation Andromeda on its western side, just off the north east corner of the Square of Pegasus. Keep magnification low for this object and larger aperture telescopes will reveal more detail. See if you can spot the satellite galaxies M32 and M110. Low magnification.
One of the real jewels of the sky is the Orion Nebula. Found just below the famous three star belt in Orion, the nebula is a vast stellar nursery. It can just be seen with the naked eye but binoculars or small telescope reveal it in its fully glory. Medium sized telescopes and modest magnifications will show the stars inside the nebula called the Trapezium. Don't expect to see it in all its colourful glory like the pictures. Cameras are more sensitive to color in low light levels than the human eye so it will only appear as grey/green. Low to medium magnifications.
This is a great target for smaller telescopes, which will often give a nice wide field of view on the sky. The Perseus Double Cluster is, as its name suggests, a couple of star clusters around 7,000 light-years away. A wide field of view is the best way to see the two clusters so low power eyepieces are essential. There are around 200 stars in each of the clusters that are separated by just a few hundred light years. Low magnification.
Found in Pegasus over in the western sky in winter evenings, this is amongst the best of the globular clusters in the sky. Its quite easy to spot. Just off to the north west of the orange star Enif. Small telescopes will show it only as a fuzzy blob but telescopes of at least 15cm aperture are needed to reveal individual stars. Medium to high magnification.
Probably the finest open cluster in the sky, the Pleiades or Seven Sisters can be seen with the naked eye to the north west of Taurus the bull. This is a great example of how high magnification isn't always necessary in fact low magnification is essential to see this cluster at its best.
Take a break from night time observing and have a peek at the sun. Do not use your telescope to look directly at the sun! It's far too bright and will result in blindness. Instead, cut a disk out of thick card no larger than about 75cm and place the card with a small hole cut out over the sunward end of the telescope. You can now use this slightly modified telescope to point at the sun and project an image through the eyepiece and onto another piece of card held about a foot away. Don't leave the telescope pointed at the sun for long periods as I have seen the glue inside eyepieces start to melt, so use great caution when studying the sun. Make sure have also put lens caps on your finder telescopes so you don't accidentally get a glimpse of the magnified sun. Experiment with magnifications from low to high.


LISBON – Greater glycemic control and weight reductions were achieved by people with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes who used a fixed dual combination of a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor added to metformin compared with those who used a DPP-4 inhibitor plus metformin in a phase 3b study.
The addition of dapagliflozin/saxagliptin (Qtern, AstraZeneca) to metformin (DAPA/SAXA-MET) resulted in a 1.4% decrease in glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to week 26, which was 0.3% more than the 1.1% drop seen when sitagliptin (Januvia, Merck) was added onto metformin (SITA-MET; P less than .008).
"With the triple therapy there was a more profound reduction in glycated hemoglobin," Stefano Del Prato, MD, professor of endocrinology and metabolism and chief of the section of diabetes at the University of Pisa, Italy, reported at the annual meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes. "Triple therapy was also associated with significant reductions in fasting plasma glucose and body weight versus sitagliptin added on to metformin," he said.
Of note, a higher percentage of patients given the triple therapy achieved a target HbA1c of less than 7% compared with those receiving the dual therapy (37% vs. 25%; P = .0034) at 26 weeks, and fasting plasma glucose also fell to a greater extent (–32 mg/dL vs. –11 mg/dL; P less than .0001).
Furthermore, weight reduction was greater with the triple versus the dual therapy, at an adjusted mean change from baseline of –1.9 kg versus –0.5 kg; P less than .0001).
"This study beautifully illustrates to me that when we use SGLT2 inhibitors we shouldn't be just fixated by the glycemic difference," Naveed Sattar, MD, professor of cardiovascular and medical sciences at the University of Glasgow, Scotland, said from the audience.
Dr. Sattar, who was not involved in the study, suggested that the diabetes community was at the point of a new paradigm: "We could use these drugs to protect the kidneys and the heart," he suggested. "As a diabetes community we should move beyond glycemia; it's the other benefits that we should be thinking about when we prescribe these drugs," he said.
Not everyone was as enthusiastic. One delegate said the study design was "screwy" because two different DPP-4 inhibitors were used. Dr. Del Prato responded, saying that the dual sitagliptin/metformin combination was the comparator arm because it was the most commonly used combination, and saxagliptin was used as it was available in a fixed combination with a DPP4 inhibitor, dapagliflozin.
"Current guidelines recommend addition of a single antidiabetes agent to metformin to achieve and maintain glycemic targets in patients with type 2 diabetes; however, responses to dual therapy are often limited and not persistent in time," Dr. Del Prato observed. He added that there was already some evidence that triple drug combinations with complementary modes of action "provide increased efficacy for some patients" and that both SGLT2 inhibitors and DPP-4 inhibitors were recommended in combination with metformin.
Patients recruited into the trial had to have been taking a stable dose of metformin of more than 1,500 mg/day for at least 8 weeks at study entry, with a baseline HbA1c of 8%-10.5%, and a fasting plasma glucose of 270 mg/dL or less. Of 861 people screened, 461 were randomized, with 232 receiving daily treatment with the fixed combination of DAPA (10 mg) plus SAXA (5 mg) and 229 receiving sitagliptin (100 mg) added to their existing metformin regimen.
A higher rate of completion (92% vs. 86%) was seen with triple therapy than with the dual therapy, although reasons for discontinuation were similar between the groups. Both triple and dual therapy were "well tolerated," Dr. Del Prato reported. The rates of any adverse event (AE), drug-related AEs, serious AEs, and drug-related serious AEs were a respective 48.7% vs. 47.6%, 7.2% vs. 6.6%, 2.2% vs. 3.9%, and 0% vs. 0.4%.
"No patient experienced a major episode of hypoglycemia," Dr. Del Prato said, noting that 3.9% of the triple-therapy-treated versus 2.6% of the dual-therapy-treated subjects experienced this AE.
Urogenital infections were "infrequent" with a "similar incidence of genital infections" at 2.6% for the triple therapy group and 2.2% for the double therapy group. Urinary tract infections occurred "slightly more frequently" with the triple than dual regimen, at 4.7% vs. 2.2%, respectively.
"Improvements in glycated hemoglobin, with the addition of once-daily dapagliflozin and saxagliptin to metformin were greater than with the addition of sitagliptin alone on top of metformin and were achieved regardless of baseline A1c, age, gender, race, and region," Dr. Del Prato said. Patients will continue to be followed in the trial for 1 year and results of this extension phase of the study will provide information on the durability of responses to DAPA/SAXA/MET versus SITA/MET.
AstraZeneca funded the study. Dr. Del Prato disclosed ties with AstraZeneca, Boehringer Ingelheim, Merck Sharpe & Dohme, Novartis, Eli Lilly, GlaxoSmithKline, Hanmi Pharmaceuticals, Intarcia Therapeutics, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Novo Nordisk, Sanofi-Aventis, Servier, and Takeda Pharmaceuticals. Dr. Sattar disclosed ties with Amgen, Boehringer Ingelheim, Eli Lilly, Janssen, and Novo Nordisk.

Plans unveiled for Stoke-on-Trent's latest oatcake shop (& it will be on Homes Under The Hammer)
Neighbours have objected to the plans
Matt JacksonSenior Live News Reporter
Oatcakes have long been at the heart of the 'cultural diet' of Staffordshire
Plans have been unveiled to transform a former hardware store into an oatcake shop – and it will be featured on Homes Under The Hammer.
Applicants Andrew Wilson and and Jana Greitane has submitted a proposal that would see 19 Station Street, Longport, turned into a 'leading standard' oatcake shop.
The pair say they have been working in the food industry for over 20 years and want to make a 'positive change' to both the local community and the oatcake industry.
But a number of residents have lodged objections to Stoke-on-Trent City Council.
In a statement to the council, the developers said: "The building has been abandoned and unused for many years as a result it has slowly been dilapidating and becoming an unappealing property with in the surrounding area.
Plans unveiled for 46 new flats at North Staffordshire YMCA
"The property has had many uses over the years, from a DIY store to a lawn mower shop.
"We have purchased the premises with the intention of bringing this property back to life and turning it into the leading standard for Staffordshire Oatcake making.
"It's our aim to turn 19 Station Street into the benchmark premises for food safety and functionality possibilities.
"We've already started on trying to grow awareness for our business and the local area as we are currently working alongside the BBC who are filming this whole process, which will appear on the national day time TV show 'Homes Under The Hammer'."
Stoke-on-Trent City Council's civic centre
The change of use application submitted would see the shop operating between 5am and 8pm on Monday to Saturday, 6am to 6pm on Sunday, and 6am to 3pm on Bank Holidays.

Neighbours have opposed the plans.
Objector Steven Howard, of Station Street, said: "There is limited parking as there is and the traffic will be an issue if this application was to go ahead.
"Especially as there is already an oatcake shop located on Station Street."
Neighbour Robina Fazey said: "I object due to increased traffic and air pollution, decreased car parking spaces outside of my home, increased noise from machinery/delivery vehicles and an increased likelihood of littering in Station Street and neighbouring streets which is an ongoing issue."
Wendy Macdonald, of Stoke, added: "As an employee myself, only just one door away, from the 'planned' oatcake shop, which will serve the same hot and cold foods as we do, I seriously object.

"How does a small business continue with this 'next door', selling exactly the same foods? Just no sense whatsoever. This will cost jobs from our family run business which we have ran for more than 13 years now."
City Council planners are due to make a decision in the coming months.

Erin Way Talks About Joining 'Alphas'
This Monday we see the introduction of a new cast member to SyFy's Alphas. Erin Way plays Kat, a new character introduced in the episode called Alpha Dogs. ScifiPulse...
by Marx Pyle August 7, 2012
This Monday we see the introduction of a new cast member to SyFy's Alphas. Erin Way plays Kat, a new character introduced in the episode called Alpha Dogs. ScifiPulse got a chance to speak with her during a conference call interview, where she told us more about her character and what it took to prepare for this type of role.
We learn Kat has a very interesting Alpha ability, but it comes with a price.
"[Kat's] special ability is that she basically learn any skill instantly, so that includes knowledge and muscle memory. She can – it's essentially kind of like she can just download it almost instantly," explained Way. "And the only downside is that she has a bit of a memory problem. So after about a month or so she starts loosing memories of the past. So while she retains her memories she can't remember how she learned them or who she knows or where she came from, which you know, is a little problematic."
Often, actors on sci-fi shows aren't actual fans of sci-fi, which is understandable because not everyone loves every genre. But not so with Way. Despite primarily playing characters on non-scifi/fantasy shows, like Private Practice and Detroit 1-8-7, she is actually a big fan of genre shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Dollhouse, and Firefly.
"I'm a huge fan of sci-fi. Never been on a sci-fi show or movie before, so it was kind of a surreal experience. But I'm a huge… I mean you kind of name the sci-fi shows and I'm a huge sucker for them. So that was kind of awesome. I had to pinch myself on a couple of occasions that I was going to, you know, be a part of that genre finally. It was really cool," said Way. "[Alphas is] a little bit like a crime drama like Detroit 1-8-7, but the world of sci-fi is so much bigger, and the possibilities of what can happen and what people are capable of is – because it's sci-fi, it doesn't have to be based in "reality." So that to me is what's so exciting is that the imagination and the scope of what can occur is huge. And because of that it really is an exciting genre to be in. And so you kind of look forward to getting that script and being like, 'Okay, what else are they going to stumble upon this week? And you know, what is their ability going to be,' because you know it's probably going to be something that you've never even thought of."
Introducing new characters to an ensemble cast is always tricky. Way explained that although the cast welcomed her with open arms, some of their characters needed more convincing.
"The Alphas as a whole can tend to be… a little on the serious side. And Kat just comes in and is – because of her ability or the downside of her ability, the way she's chosen to survive with it is just to be very live in the moment, not get too heady about stuff because you know, she doesn't – or she's not burdened by anything really in the past because she forgets everything," said Way. "So essentially, she just comes in and really kind of mixes it up… doesn't really care about the rules, the protocol, how you're supposed to behave, kind of makes fun of them for being so serious. And in a sense, because of that, kind of just ruffles everybody's feathers a little bit, which I think just makes for not only some comic relief, but also you know, maybe helps some of the characters find a different perspective on their situation."
Two of the characters have two very different reactions to Kat: Gary and Bill. Gary doesn't care for her at first.
"[Gary] doesn't like me at all. In fact, I think I rub him the wrong way the most out of anybody. And that's you know, to be expected; Gary is somebody that relies upon routine and protocol and the rules, you know, he duplicates the rules very specifically and doesn't really – he's not comfortable and doesn't enjoy people kind of like breaking those rules and breaking his routine and stable – his stable pieces of information. And so Kat is not somebody that's going to be like – because somebody tells her, 'Hey you know, so Gary likes his routine so try not to interrupt him or he doesn't like it when you touch him or…' if you tell her that… it's just going to make her want to do it more. And so she's constantly touching Gary, trying to hug Gary, just basically doing everything that he will tell her not to do. So it's very upsetting to him, he doesn't like it at all," explained Way.
Although Gary has issues, which Way said she sees smoothing out over time, Kat is a character that Bill sort of takes under his wings.
"[Bill] is getting exhausted, he's unable to stay amped up for a very long time without totally just wearing himself out. And it's becoming a bit problematic for him. And so Kat… probably from training that she's had in martial arts, and also just her experience, she's able to kind of teach him how to kind of counteract that," said Way. "So it's interesting, and I think it's really the key to what bonds the two of them as characters and why he takes such a shining to her because she spots it right away and is – and really just kind of takes him under her wing a little bit, which is a cool little – you wouldn't necessarily expect that, seeing the two of them together. So yes, so it's a cool little friendship that they develop over that."
Way's character's power creates a unique challenge for the actress. With no martial art background she has to learn martial art moves quickly.
"I usually end up having to learn it within a few minutes of filming the scene, unless I know beforehand and then I can kind of do some research online. So it's cool to just kind of have to be like, 'And now you're going to learn this knife trick,' and then I'm like, 'Okay.' And then you just kind of have to learn it and try to do the best you can." said Way whose background as a ballerina both helped and hindered her with kickboxing scenes. While her training helped her learn new moves quickly and provided her a strong foundation in coordination and flexibility, there was a downside…. "it was pretty much a retraining of my body, of like how to hold myself and not look like a sissy, because dancers don't look like fighters. So I had to kind of retrain myself not to hold myself like a ballerina."

The Broadwindsor Craft and Design Centre is situated in the heart of West Dorset's beautiful rolling countryside. Redundant farm buildings on the edge of the village were the starting point in 1986 for this unique venture. Today, the Craft Centre is renowned for its excellence and quality.
The Centre underwent a major transformation in 2002 when an extension was built from locally quarried stone. This allowed the additions of two further rooms in the main gift shop, including a dedicated toy room. The main shop gallery was also opened at this time displaying pictures, lighting, fireside tools, fire guards and log baskets.
In 2012 the Craft Centre opened the Gallery of Makers, exhibiting many talented artists from the local area.
The Craft Centre is owned by Colin and Sarah Williams. Sarah was born to a farming family in the village and worked in the restaurant at the Craft Centre as a Saturday girl for many years. Today, it is very much a family run business, with the emphasis on a friendly, welcoming atmosphere to create an enjoyable experience.

— персонаж и антигерой из серии «Жемчуг дракона», противник Сона Гоку. Создан Акирой Ториямой. Вегета появился, как главный антагонист в той части «Жемчуга дракона», которая позднее стала известна по своему более общему названию Dragon Ball Z. После этого Вегета неохотно объединяется с другими героями, чтобы предотвратить одну большую угрозу и становится антигероем. Несмотря на эти изменения, Вегета остается опасным соперником для главного героя серии Сона Гоку на почти всю оставшуюся часть серии.

Вегета впервые появился в манге в 204 главе «Прощай, Сон Гоку», которая была опубликована в журнале «Shonen Jump» 19 декабря 1988 года и в пятой серии аниме Dragon Ball Z. Первоначально он был опасным врагом, который стремился использовать жемчуг дракона, чтобы получить бессмертие. Позже стал антигероем — союзником Гоку — и оказывает помощь в разгроме могущественных врагов, таких как Мадзин Бу. Он всегда стремится превзойти Гоку, но постоянно безуспешно, ибо каждый раз, когда он становится немного сильнее, сам Гоку усиливается ещё больше.

Вегета — один из наиболее популярных героев сериала. Согласно голосованию среди японских фанатов в 2004 году, он второй по популярности персонаж «Жемчуга дракона». В рейтинге About.com «Топ 8 любовных историй в аниме», его отношения с Булмой заняли второе место. Вегета участвовал в конкурсе журнала Animage на лучшего мужского персонажа, занимая высокие места в опросах 1991 года и 1992 года. Занял 21 строчку в списке IGN лучших персонажей аниме всех времен в 2009 году, когда рецензент назвал его идейным вдохновителем таких героев, как Лайт Ягами и Лелуш Ламперуж; и 10 строчку в 2014 году. Вегета также попал на третье место в списке IGN «Топ 10 злодеев в аниме» (2014 год).

Интернет-мем
Цитата Вегеты «It's over 9000!» (), которую он произнёс, ссылаясь на новый уровень мощности Гоку, стала интернет-мемом и популярной коронной фразой со ссылкой на большое количество чего-либо. Фраза впервые произносится в эпизоде «The Return of Goku», где она была изменена американскими переводчиками с оригинального «Более 8000!» (8000以上だ…! 8000 ijō da…!; ) на соответствующую. В последующих выпусках использовался один из двух вариантов фразы.

Voucher Affiliates cater to the fact that everyone likes a bargain. Vouchers have been successfully used for years on the high street too as a mechanism for short term sales drives and to increase conversion.
There are whole genres of sites that offer consumers voucher codes and discount codes online. These sites can generate large volumes of sales from their email marketing efforts.
Some Voucher affiliates have gotten a bad name from optimising their website for the name of the affiliate merchant so that when people search for the company they then see the company name and a voucher code which they use and it just reduces the profitability of the merchant.
It is possible to stipulate that voucher code affiliates do not use your company name in the URL or copy on their sites, incurring this risk.

Book Review - Spies for Hire: The Secret World of Intelligence Outsourcing
" ... Shorrock profiles CACI's leader, Jack London, who since news of the scandal broke, 'has treated Abu Ghraib as a public relations problem.' Over the past four years, CACI has sued or threatened to sue more than a dozen journalists because of their coverage of the Abu Ghraib scandal ... "
www.pressaction.com
A Cunning and Conniving Adversary
Arlington County, Virginia, is home to a large number of government agencies and private companies involved in fighting the "the global war on terror" or "global struggle against violent extremism," or whatever propaganda catchphrase politicos in Washington are using today to describe the U.S. government's campaign to prop up its crumbling world empire. The Pentagon complex is the most notorious member of this group. Aside from the Pentagon, the Defense Department has many divisions housed in other office buildings scattered across Arlington, as do the CIA and other federal police and intelligence agencies.
The government outsourcing trend has gained momentum during the past 30 years, and Arlington has served as a popular location for many of these Beltway Bandits to set up shop, given its proximity to Washington. Many of these companies specialize in military and intelligence contracts. One of the best known Arlington-based contractors is CACI International, a company that has performed a variety of contract work for the U.S. military in Iraq, including providing intelligence analysis, background investigations, screenings and interrogation.
In his new book Spies for Hire: The Secret World of Intelligence Outsourcing, Tim Shorrock takes a close look at CACI and how the company was brought into Iraq by the U.S. military to help with interrogations at the Abu Ghraib prison. Shorrock notes in the book that CACI challenged the idea that its growth over the past five years came solely from its business in Iraq. The company said its Abu Ghraib contracts were less than one percent of total worldwide revenue, according to Shorrock.
"In that narrow context, therefore, the company was right: antiwar activists, journalists, and filmmakers critical of CACI have vastly underestimated its role in U.S. foreign policy and the war on terror," Shorrock writes. "By focusing exclusively on CACI's role at Abu Ghraib—abysmal as it was—journalists and antiwar activists have obscured a much larger picture: CACI is one of the world's largest private intelligence services providers and deeply involved in classified black operations everywhere on the globe where U.S. military forces are active."
Shorrock profiles CACI's leader, Jack London, who since news of the scandal broke, "has treated Abu Ghraib as a public relations problem." Over the past four years, CACI has sued or threatened to sue more than a dozen journalists because of their coverage of the Abu Ghraib scandal, according to Shorrock.
London, who relinquished his CEO title in 2007 but stayed on as chairman of the company's board, embraces a political philosophy that "closely matched the imperial visions of Rumsfeld and the neocons he brought into the Pentagon," Shorrock writes. "He stands out among his peers in the business of intelligence for his almost religious allegiance to the Bush-Cheney agenda of pre-emptive war and global military dominance."
In the book, Shorrock shares a quote by London from 2006: "As the fight against terrorism and the Islamofascists continues, technologies will keep evolving to collect, analyze and disseminate vital intelligence to support the war fighter and the national security authorities."
Shorrock says that London in 2002 came up with a "simpler way" to define the asymmetric warfare practiced by Palestinians and other Arab groups in their resistance to the United States and Israel: "Not fighting fair." According to Shorrock, London said that "asymmetric warfare means facing a cunning and conniving adversary of inferior strength, who finds ways to exploit vulnerabilities to radical extreme, and frequently with frightening psychological effect."
Arlington County is well known in Virginia for its liberal political tradition. Currently, all of the elected positions in the county are filled by Democrats.
In 2007, it was the all-Democratic Arlington County Board that honored London "for his personal contributions to Arlington and his leadership of CACI. Special appreciation was given for CACI's assistance in planning for Arlington's new National Defense Science and Technology Collaboration Center. The new center will be located near CACI's headquarters in Arlington's Ballston neighborhood."
It probably surprised some county residents that its elected officials would honor the leader of a company whose financial well being is closely tied to the nation's perpetual state of warfare. "Like George Bush, he [London] sees evil lurking throughout the developing world, where he points to a 'rising environment' of extremist individuals and organizations," Shorrock writes.
