Following is his summary and commentary of the CFTC Technology Advisory Committee meeting, October 30, 2012.
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission's Technology Advisory Committee (TAC) met in Chicago on October 30, 2012 to hear updates from its Subcommittee on Automated and High Frequency Trading. Commissioner Scott O'Malia, chairman of the TAC, heard industry professionals recommend turning regulatory focus away from high-frequency trading (HFT) as such and toward the particular activities that cause concern over HFT. Market participants cautioned against controls on HFT that could negatively impact market quality. Instead, panelists called for an industry-led initiative to implement quality management practices and appropriate trading controls.
some objective measure of high message rates.
The team defined algorithmic trading broadly, so as to capture strategies that rely on an algorithm at any stage. For instance, trading systems in which a trader decides what to buy or sell but then launches code that routes or executes trades without further human intervention would qualify. The working group suggested that a regulator update the test for high message rates periodically, to keep it in line with current speeds and areas of concern.
This proposed definition strips away much of the public perception of HFT (e.g., fully automated trade logic and short holding periods) to focus only on measures correlated with the specific activities that worry observers, such as "quote stuffing," an attempt to slow a market connection through issuance of high numbers of spurious, evanescent orders. Jim Northey, Partner at the LaSalle Technology Group, described an approach that takes this idea one step further.
Mr. Northey recounted how Jorge Herrada, Associate Director at the CFTC, suggested that regulations not be triggered by an entity's status as a high-frequency trader, but rather by its involvement in deleterious conduct of the sort sometimes ascribed to HFT companies. In this "inverted" approach, a trading firm would qualify for additional restrictions if it sent out and canceled numerous orders, or pursued other strategies that regulations were designed to discourage, regardless of the frequency of the firm's trades. Conversely, a firm that executed frequent trades but avoided the potentially harmful market activities that concern the CFTC would not face such restrictions. This approach accords with the observation from Edward Dasso III, Vice President of Market Regulation at the National Futures Association, that non-automated trading companies can harm the market as well.
low trading costs, including tight bid-ask spreads, which enable more investors to participate in the market.
Panelists sought to ensure that regulations in this area would tend to improve, not harm, marketplace quality. Along these lines, many speakers referenced a recent report by Foresight in the UK, which gathered evidence from multiple studies and advised against implementing various proposed HFT controls because of potential harm to marketplace quality. Dean Payton, Managing Director at CME Group, urged the CFTC not to let rules impair the benefits resulting from HFT, specifically citing new execution opportunities that HFT had created for buy-side traders.
Working Group 2 also introduced the related concept of "market participant quality," which represents an individual company's marginal impact on marketplace quality. The team proposed factors for estimating market participant quality, such as a market-making order's size, duration, and proximity to the top of the book, which presumably correlate with the order's likely effect on liquidity. But market participant quality proved much more contentious than marketplace quality. Richard Haynes, a CFTC economist, opposed the implicit labeling of particular trading strategies as inherently "good" or "bad," preferring to focus on strategies that were truly abusive.
As a counterpart to marketplace quality, Working Group 2 highlighted quality practices that are applied within an individual market participant to ensure that its actions match its intentions ("market system quality"). Mr. Northey explained the CFTC's interest in such internal processes, arguing that while market participants should be free to lose all of their money on foolhardy investment strategies, they should not be allowed to take the market down with them. A market disruption resulting from one firm's error affects investor confidence in the market as a whole, Mr. Northey reasoned. Thus, market participants are all in it together in this area.
This notion of shared exposure to market perceptions led to proposals for market participants both individually and as a group. Looking first at individual market participants, Mr. Northey echoed statements made to the SEC four weeks earlier, saying that one can never engineer a defect-fee system. Rather, he argued, the focus must be on minimizing the frequency of errors and mitigating the impact of errors. Quality management systems, such as ISO 9000 or Six Sigma, have just such an aim and have worked in numerous other industries.
Specifically, Working Group 2 cited the AT 9000 project, an attempt by academics and practitioners to formulate an ISO 9000 analogue geared toward automated trading. Mr. Northey presented a timeline for AT 9000 that envisioned adoption by the American National Standards Institute in the first half of 2013. Market participants could then voluntarily seek AT 9000 certification, a process that ideally would both decrease a company's operational risk and improve its ability to communicate its quality practices externally.
In relation to market participants as a group, Working Group 4 recommended that market participants share information regarding their errors and "near misses" to spread understanding of valuable control processes. Dr. Haynes supported this idea, stating that a consensus had emerged that trading errors harm everyone, so that companies should not compete with one another by keeping secret their methods for preventing market disruption.
While many at the meeting agreed with the working group's general proposal and Dr. Haynes' reasoning, the precise contours of such a program of information sharing remain unclear. Speaking for Working Group 4, Jitesh Thakkar, Founder of Edge Financial Technologies, described one idea for an investigatory body like the National Transportation Safety Board that could similarly monitor the safety of markets, but he noted that the working group was divided over the proposal. Cliff Lewis, Executive Vice President at State Street Global Markets, opposed the NTSB proposal and expressed doubt over firms' willingness to share the "crown jewels" by telling competitors about their strategies. Mr. Thakkar noted the risk companies would run by exposing their errors if the CFTC used such admissions to support fines. Whether some limited data sharing program—which does not expose trading strategies or details sufficient to support enforcement actions—might work remains to be seen.
While AT 9000 focuses on operations within one market participant, Working Group 3 emphasized the way risk spreads through the market, necessitating controls that operate at multiple levels and bridge the gap between market participants. An exchange can manage its own processes flawlessly and yet still suffer from poor marketplace quality if the trading firms using that exchange do not follow similar quality principles. Speaking for the group, Mr. Payton of the CME argued that in addition to monitoring their own processes, trading venues should expand testing of automated trading systems that connect to them and could adversely affect their marketplace quality. Equally, where a trading venue cannot independently verify the quality attributes of a trading company's systems, Working Group 3 would have the venue demand certification from the connecting entity that it has implemented the appropriate controls.
The third working group proposed a number of controls to be implemented by trading firms, clearing firms, and market venues. Working Group 4, meanwhile, emphasized that such controls are not without costs. Mr. Thakkar of Edge Financial noted that while pre-trade risk controls would likely decrease the risk of market disruption, they would also slow down processing at the companies that used them. Trading strategies that depend on low latency could thus be rendered unprofitable, generating significant incentive for trading firms not to apply such tests. One way around this, Mr. Thakkar suggested, was to ensure that pre-trade risk controls would be applied equally to all trading systems, generating a "level playing field." No structure has yet emerged for such a regulation, but Working Group 4 highlighted the similar SEC Rule 15c3-5, which could potentially serve as a model.
The four working groups thus presented a picture of growing consensus regarding the kinds of activities that can harm the market, practices that market participants can implement to reduce their operational risk, trading controls that can reduce the risk of market disruption, and the desire for some level of information sharing, if such a program should prove workable. At the same time, many details and a few broader policy decisions remain unclear.

Foreign interest is returning to Singapore property resident : Jual Apartemen
Foreign interest is returning to Singapore property resident
Foreign demand is expected to return to the Singapore residential property market this year, Bank of Singapore (BOS) believes. This is backed by the prospects of a price recovery and better leasing environment, as well as the fact that home prices have fallen to a sweet spot after four years of decline to render the market more affordable compared to other global cities.
BOS head of strategy Eli Lee said in a report last Friday that the recent bullishness in the housing market has so far been largely driven by domestic buyers. But he expects foreign buyers seeking relative value to return and kick the upturn into higher gear, particularly in the prime residential segment.

Re: Foreign interest is returning to Singapore property resi
After three years of falling prices, 2018 is looking like the year that the Singapore property market's long-awaited turnaround finally gains traction. Analysts reckon that a trough has been reached though they are careful to tamp down excessive optimism.
While market watchers generally agree that prices will move up, their forecasts for the increases vary from as low as 3 per cent to a giddy 15 per cent. Most also agree that resales will drive transaction numbers higher this year than last year.
Sales of new homes, however, are expected to stay at 2017 levels as developers pace out their launches in anticipation of prices going up.
Don't miss the opportunity, check out penthouse in Singapore for sale for more insight.
According to the figures released by Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) based on its surveys of licensed housing developers. Private homes sold by developer in Jan 2018 up by 37% from a year ago.
Analysts generally termed the January sales as "healthy", especially given that no new private housing or EC projects were launched last month among projects that were still licensed.
"The firm economic outlook for Singapore this year should continue to drive positive sentiment and confidence in the property market," said Ms Tricia Song, head of research for Singapore at Colliers International.

Transaction values also soared 46%, driven mainly by the secondary market. This chart from DBS Equity Research shows that 2M2018, unit sales (primary and secondary sales) jumped by 14% YoY to around 3,200 units. Moreover, transaction values were significantly higher by 46%, driven mainly by the secondary market. DBS analyst Derek Tan noted that Singapore is approaching the traditional peak period for property transactions in the coming months, which around 55%-60% transacted between April to September in any given year. "Given the positive sales momentum, we believe that there is a high chance that transaction values this year will exceed our estimate (+10% YoY)," he said.

Roswell Wrongful Termination Lawyers
Find the right Wrongful Termination attorney in Roswell, NM
Employment in the state of New Mexico is mostly considered to be "at-will" employment. "At will" means that for any reason, both the employer or the worker may end the work relationship at any point. The only exception to "at-will" employment is that the employment can not be terminated in a manner that breaks the law.
Employment not falling in the "at will" category is subject to different limitations and requirements, so you should be sure to know the classification of your work setup. In general, employment that is subject to a set period employment contract is not considered to be "at will", and termination may only happen in accordance with procedures outlined in the contract.
What are the Illegal Grounds for Terminating At Will Employment in New Mexico?
In the state of New Mexico, employee discrimination is the most common illegal ground for termination in an at-will employment. Employers are barred from terminating their employees on the basis of race, gender, religion, or nationality. An employer also may not fire an at-will employee in retaliation for the employee starting an investigation into discrimination or filing a legal claim of discrimination against the Roswell employer.
Furthermore, employers are prohibited by the Family and Medical Leave act from firing those employees who take leave in order to address family or medical concerns. Finally, employers cannot terminate employees who are simply exercising a legal right, performing an obligation under law, or refusing to do an illegal act.
Do I Need a New Mexico Attorney for My Wrongful Termination Case?
In Roswell, New Mexico, a lawyer will be able to notify you about whether you are a victim of wrongful termination, and they will be able to guide you in gathering the necessary documents. Sometimes there can be procedures that are unique, and a lawyer can guide you in these as well.
Life in Roswell
Roswell, New Mexico is a city in Chaves County, New Mexico. It is the county seat of Chaves County. It has a population of about 46,000 people, as of the 2000 Census.
The first European-American settlers of the area arrived in 1865, and were from Missouri. However, they abandoned their settlement a few years later for lack of water. In 1869, two businessmen partnered up and built two adobe structures in what would become Roswell. They served as the general store and post office.
Roswell is perhaps best known for the 1947 "UFO event" that occurred about 75 miles outside the city. An object crash-landed in the desert, which many people believe (or like to believe) was an alien spacecraft. The far more likely explanation, however, is that the object was a package of experimental military equipment carried aloft by a balloon, and it was simply a test gone wrong.
Nonetheless, the legend persists, and many businesses in Roswell cater to the many UFO enthusiasts who visit the city.
The vast majority of Roswell's residents, however, have ordinary jobs and lead ordinary lives. Because the average person is more likely than not to need to hire a lawyer at some point in their lives, Roswell has a significant legal community. If you live in the Roswell area and have a legal problem, a Roswell, New Mexico lawyer is the person to call.

16 Mar 2010 : Column 734W—continued
16 Mar 2010 : Column 735W
Departmental Written Questions
David Simpson: To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families pursuant to the answer of 10 February 2010, Official Report, columns 1087-8W, on departmental written questions, by what mechanism his Department monitors its responses to parliamentary questions; what its target time is for responses; and how its performance against that target is measured. [318385]
Ms Diana R. Johnson: The Department has recently implemented a new IT system for monitoring its responses to parliamentary questions. This Department aims to ensure that Members receive a substantive response to their named day question on the date specified, and endeavours to answer ordinary written questions within a working week of being tabled. The new system will enable the Department's performance to be measured against these targets.
Family Proceedings
Mr. Timpson: To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families what recent assessment he has made of the likely effects on the welfare of children of the provisions in the Children, Schools and Families Bill on family court proceedings. [312932]
Dawn Primarolo: Protecting the welfare of children is our paramount concern. In developing the proposals for the Bill, officials met and sought the views of various stakeholders including 11 Million, the Association of Directors of Children's Services and the Association of Lawyers for Children. My hon. Friend the Member for Lewisham, East (Bridget Prentice) also met the Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service/National Youth Advocacy Service Young People's Board to seek their views on proposals in the Bill.
The proposals in the Bill are carefully drafted in response to this stakeholder feedback to ensure that children's welfare is protected and sensitive personal information remains confidential. In addition, the measures in the Bill propose to strengthen the current position and give indefinite anonymity to children involved in family proceedings.
The current proposals before Parliament make clear that it is only possible to alter the treatment of sensitive personal information once an independent review of the operation of the provisions has been carried out, including their impact on the welfare of children.
National Youth Community Service
Mr. Maude: To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families with reference to the Prime Minister's speech at Britain's Everyday Heroes Book Launch of 24 July 2007, what progress has been made on the launch of the National Youth Community Service for Britain since July 2007. [318354]
Ms Diana R. Johnson: The 44-week volunteering programme vTalent Year was launched in January 2009 involving young people aged 16 to 25 volunteering for approximately 30 hours per week. The first cohort
of 358 young people is working across 32 local authority children and young people's services and the second cohort will start in March 2010.
Volunteers are undertaking a range of placements from nurseries, children and youth centres to youth crime prevention, asylum seekers and substance misuse teams. Nearly 60 per cent. of the volunteers were not in education, employment or training prior to starting the programme.
In April 2009 the Prime Minister alongside Ministers for the Cabinet Office and the Department for Children, Schools and Families also announced a package of measures to support our ambition that, in time, all young people should give at least 50 hours of their time between the ages of 14 and 19 to serve their communities.
The measures include:
incorporating community action into learning programmes for 20,000 16 to 18-year-olds as part of Entry to Employment programmes in 2009/10 and again as part of Foundation Learning in 2010/11;
the creation of five intensive local authority pilots to test approaches to achieving near-universal participation among 14 to 16-year-olds;
new ways of recognising participation in community action; and
more support for schools to engage their pupils in this activity, to complement existing local support teams for 16 to 25-year-olds.
Office for Standards in Education: Children's Services and Skills
Miss McIntosh: To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families what recent representations he has received on the system of inspection operated by Ofsted. [321867]
Mr. Coaker: As the Secretary of State stated in Oral Questions on 25 January 2010, stakeholders are in regular contact with Ministers and the Department about a wide range of matters, including Ofsted jinspections.
Michael Gove: To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families what estimate his Department has made of the cost of providing one-to-one or small group tuition to every child not reaching the expected level at key stage 1 and 2 in (a) 2009-10, (b) 2010-11 and (c) 2011-12. [317823]
Ms Diana R. Johnson: Funding for the one-to-one tuition programme was announced as part of the most recent comprehensive spending review (CSR) settlement. There is a total of £468 million funding over the CSR period, including £138 million to support 3.5 per cent. of the key stage 2, key stage 3 (and in National Challenge schools key stage 4) cohort in each of English and maths in 2009-10; and £315 million to support 300,000 pupils in English and 300,000 children in mathematics in 2010-11.
In 2009-10, pupils who enter key stage 2 behind expectations and/or who are not on course to make two levels of progress will be eligible for one-to-one tuition,
but there is no entitlement to this support. Subject to the will of Parliament, from September 2010 one-to-one tuition will be guaranteed for all children who enter key stage 2 behind national expectations and are not on course to make two levels of progress over the course of the key stage. The funding for 2010-11 is sufficient to cover this guarantee.
The Every Child Counts and Every Child a Reader programmes in key stage 1 and the Every Child a Writer programme at key stage 2 comprise of both one-to-one tuition and small group work. Taken together, these programmes will have £52.7 million funding in 2009-10, and £94.6 million funding in 2010-11.
Schools received a personalisation budget of £1.6 billion for the three-year period of this CSR, and this funding can be used to provide further small group support.
No decisions on funding for the one-to-one tuition programme or the Every Child programmes have been taken for 2011-12.
Schools: Fires
Mr. Jim Cunningham: To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families (1) what estimate he has made of the number of fires reported in schools in each year since 2005; [318629]
(2) what his most recent estimate is of the annual cost to the public purse of fires in schools. [318631]
Mr. Coaker [holding answer 26 February 2010]: The latest confirmed figures we have from the Department for Communities and Local Government (CLG) for England and Wales cover the period 2000 to 2007, and are shown in the following tables.
Number of fires Total costs (£ million) Percentage arson
n/a = not available
Total Accidental Deliberate
Excluding incidents not recorded during periods of industrial action in 2003 Ref: 2008066(2003-2007) .sas 12OCT09
The costs are rounded to the nearest £1 million and are derived from the CLG's cost of Fire Estimates. They cover property damage and the costs of the fire and rescue services attending the fires. They do not include costs of any fires not attended by the Fire and Rescue Services.
Schools: Standards
Mr. Sanders: To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families what steps his Department has taken to reduce the (a) administrative burden on teachers and (b) number of national performance standards for schools in the last 12 months. [321718]
Mr. Coaker: The Department works closely with the Implementation Review Unit (IRU), an independent group of front-line practitioners, to ensure that the bureaucratic and work load implications of both new and existing policies are kept under review, and to a minimum. Most recently, the IRU have been remitted to conduct a review of obstacles to effective delivery of government policies which is due to report late spring. We have also made a number of commitments to the Merits Committee and are managing better the impact of new policies on schools.
In answer to the second part of the question, since the removal of the key stage 3 national tests the national performance standards for schools have remained constant in the last 12 months.
Secondary Education: Manpower
Mr. Heald: To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families what the average staff to pupil ratio is in secondary schools in (a) North East Hertfordshire and (b) England. [321673]
Mr. Coaker: The following table provides the pupil:adult ratios for local authority maintained secondary schools in North-East Hertfordshire constituency and England, January 2009.
Within school pupil:adult ratio (PAR)( 1) in local authority maintained secondary schools( 2) , year: January 2009, coverage: North-East Hertfordshire constituency and England
North-East Hertfordshire
(1) The within school PAR is calculated by dividing the total full-time equivalent (FTE) number of pupils on roll in schools by the total FTE number of all teachers and support staff employed in schools, excluding administrative and clerical staff. (2) Excludes city technology colleges and academies. Source: School Census.
Teachers: Pay
Mr. Amess: To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families what the (a) median and (b) mean salary in (i) nominal and (ii) real terms was of a teacher in a maintained school in each region in each year since 1997. [318692]
Mr. Coaker: The following tables provide the mean and median salary of teachers in service in local authority maintained schools in cash terms and real terms broken down by each Government office region in England and for Wales, March 1997 to 2008.
Mean and median salary of full-time regular teachers( 1) in local authority maintained schools( 2 ) in cash terms and real terms( 3 ) broken down b y each Government office region, Y ears: March 1997 to March 2008 , Coverage: England and Wales

Thiago Silva has an explanation for cheating at UFC 125.
I do want to explain the circumstances behind my actions. Please do not interpret this as an attempt to justify my actions. I know they were wrong, and I know I made bad decisions, and I know I deserve to be punished. That is why I began my statement with an admission and an apology before going into these details. This is not an excuse, only an explanation. I reinjured my back 45 days before the fight with Brandon Vera. After not fighting for a year, I made the decision to not pull out of the fight. I also decided that the only way I could continue with the fight was to take injections in my back and spine that contained substances prohibited by the Nevada (State) Athletic Commission. I also made the decision to use a product to hide the presence of these substances in a urine test. Again, I take full responsibility for making the decision to break the rules and try to cheat the system. I will accept the punishment I receive and will learn from this. I plan to come back as a better person and professional as a result.
He goes on to say he'll accept any punishment the NSAC hands down.
Former WWE creative team member John Piermarini claims that Randy Orton is being held back by WWE and hasn't become the superstar he could be. Here's an excerpt.
Randy - and it's not his fault because it's us not giving it to him - but Randy doesn't have the chance to do that. Randy has done amazing with his character and I'm amazed with Randy almost every single week. I wish we gave him more to work with to really sort of get him into that creative sort of bad-ass yet PG Stone Cold. By no means do we want to make him Stone Cold Steve Austin, but that's what made Stone Cold cool was doing those things, driving the beer truck. I wish they would give him things to do like that.

Ever wanted to see 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin vs. 'Straight Edge' CM Punk? Now you can thanks to WWE All Stars and Heyman Hustle. In fact Paul Heyman got both men so fired up with this video they started arguing about it on Twitter. Now obviously it's just a huge publicity stunt to promote the game, but the video is cool and the tweets are fun to read.
Speaking of some fun videos (well except arguably the first one) here are some new features from AMP TV: WWE NXT for March 29th, the WrestleMania 27 press conference, the Road Warriors induction video package and the Shawn Michaels, Undertaker, Triple H segment on Raw.
Bret Hart has a few thoughts on WrestleMania 27. We've included an excerpt below.
As for the actual line-up, it's been a slow build for much of the card, but for the past few weeks the promos and backstage situations seemed to be rather plain and flat, totally predictable. The Undertaker and Triple H segment with Shawn Michaels played out exactly like I expected, the usual smoke blowing up the rectum stuff, more grunts and then a staring contest, thank God Shawn was there just to add something, anything to it. I suppose there isn't much else these two legends can do as far as buildup goes but it came across to me as having little imagination, the match itself should be one of the better match ups because Taker brings it all the way for Wrestlemania and Triple H can turn it up when he wants to. Triple H has had some hard fought battles over the years, but I don't know if he's ever had his chance to literally blow them away at Wrestlemania but this might be his best chance. Taker, in my opinion, is truly one of the all-time best and time and time again, he has delivered the best match on the show so I expect a good solid match, old school but intense. It could steal the show.

Rob Van Dam claims he's happier in TNA than he was in WWE. Well if he says so, I'll take him at his word. Apparently Hulk Hogan personally recruiting him was a big factor.
Due to an undisclosed injury Jon Fitch has dropped out of his UFC 132 rematch with BJ Penn. It's not yet clear if UFC will find a replacement or if Penn will accept a new fight.

"I'm going to take my fist and lay it across somebody's lips and take my boot — which is a size 14, so it's a big boot — and stick it straight up somebody's ass."
"Like with any show, like with any movie, you want to make sure the final five, 10 minutes of the show are worth every penny."
Here's a joint WWE and Make-A-Wish Foundation press release for WrestleMania 27.
1:00 AM ET. Surprise surprise, USA Network won the cable ratings race again for last week with a 2.5 prime time average, compared to a 1.9 for Disney in second place. (WO) Seems like the only time they don't win is during the NFL season - they should pray the lockout lasts.
The Rock was asked on Twitter if he got in trouble for cursing live on Raw. His response: "Why would I get fined by WWE? I never said bitches or ass, I said sumbitches and candy ass, big difference."
Diva Dirt interviews Trish Stratus. Well worth the click and read.
Speaking of excellent reads, Nickolye recapped week one of Ultimate Fighter: Lesnar vs. Dos Santos. Kudos sir!
And the hits just keep on coming as Chris Jericho blogs about why he did Dancing With the Stars. I can be a cynical bastard at times, but what he has to say about his son is genuinely heartfelt and touching.
Non-spoiler previews for WWE Superstars and TNA Impact are available at their respective links in this sentence.

Thanks to The Miz, Conan O'Brien's website is now selling "The Ginga Ninja" t-shirts - a nickname Miz suggested for him during his appearance. (PWI)
Steve Austin tells ESPN.com the Tough Enough ring "got the wrestling out of my system." No match on Raw or PPV any time soon folks.
Apparently an impostor Dixie Carter, filling in for the real one on Twitter (who as noted earlier this week got suspended for a TOS violation), was so convincing she got Hulk Hogan to respond to her. TNA Wrestling promises to announce when Dixie's actual account is active again. (PWI)
More miscellaneous links! Jim Cornette discusses ROH in Atlanta, The Miami Herald talks to Colt Cabana, SportsRev.tv talks to Cena, The Miz and Triple H, Edge talks about concussions and the Wellness Policy and the latest blog update from Jim Ross. We've got a couple of excerpts from the latter below.
Seeing HBK go into the WWE HOF is going to be particularly gratifying to me. After seeing @ShawnMichaels_ break into the business in Mid South Wrestling, I've seen the best and the worst of HBK. Traveling to San Antonio to visit with him about coming back to WWE after his 4+ year hiatus due to a back injury was one of the most profound trips of my career. It's hard to believe that Shawn returned after such a long hiatus and from the first minute that he stepped back into the ring he was better than everyone else.
I have no 'assignment' for Sunday but I'm channeling Ricky Vaughn, Charlie Sheen's character in the film 'Major League,' and assuming the role of the relief pitcher while standing by in the bullpen and ready to 'throw the heater, Ricky' if needed.

My wife and I will be spending the first few days in July visiting Yosemite NP. We enjoy B&Bs and would be grateful to anyone who can recommend a good one in or near the park.
Also, I've been unable to find a really good web review site for B&Bs... the standard ones seem to be little more than links to the specific B&B sites... helpful in its own way but hardly a resource for unbiased reviews. Any thoughts?
No B&Bs in the Park. All reservations controlled by one number 209-252-4848. Most likely all are fully booked by now. In Oakhurst there is Chateau du Sureau with the wonderful Erna's Elderberry House Restaurant. It's a very upscale inn with 9 rooms. There's also an old inn in Groveland, but that's a fair hike away. Mariposa is another town you might consider. go to www.innaccess.com for reviews and click on Yosemite. Good luck.
In Fish Camp there is Apple Tree Inn Narrow Gauge Inn. These are both outside the park near the south entrance. Driving time to the valley is about an hour. Much shorter distance to the giant sequoias and Wawona.
Try Yosemite Falls B&B. I thought it was in the park--one certainly had to go through the park to get there. It's up high, near Yosemite Falls (surprise, surprise). Gary & Mary, who run it, are a riot and make sure that everyone has a good time. The accomodations are terrific, too, Nice rooms, and a bar where everyone gathers at cocktail hour. I don't have the contact info on hand, but I seem to remember booking through a website, so search Yosemite Falls on google.
Hi John, we are staying at the Narrow Gauge Inn(26 rooms)in June. It looks very nice and has a very good restaurant(according to reviews). I decided to stay there instead of the Apple Tree Inn because they had a restaurant on site. There are some B&B's in Oakhurst, the Verandah looked nice too.
Thanks for the suggestions. Does anyone have an opinion about how much we would miss out on by not staying IN the park? I get the impression that things are pretty spread out anyways so even if you are in the park you still have to drive, right?
The last time I was in Yosemite during July was 2000. Last summer the number of visitors was down from the year before. In 2000 we were in the valley on a week day and we were surprised that there were not more people. Seeing the sights was just fine and there were no traffic issues at all. We drove in through Tioga Pass, through the valley and down to the South entrance. There was no bothersome traffic, no backups, no jams. There was one moterhome but there are turnouts for them so they take advantage of that and driving slowly allows the driver to see some of the beautiful scenery now and then. The park is huge so driving or taking buses will be required to see the different parts. The valley is only a part of what's available to see. El Cap and Half Dome can be seen from various locations as well as the valley. Yosemite Falls and Bridalveil Falls will be slower durng July. Go to Glacier point for Nevada Falls and Vernal Falls. Tioga Pass road has some really great scenery that includes Tulomne Meadows. Have fun!
We stayed at Yosemite Falls Bed & Breakfast about 3 years ago and absolutely loved it there. The owners (Gary and Mary) are the friendliest people you'll ever meet. Their B&B (located in Yosemite West, which is a sub-division right in the park) is beautifully decorated, neat and clean. They serve a full, yummy, hot breakfast each morning and cocktails and popcorn each evening. While they are lcated inside the park, it's still a good half hour drive down to the valley. They are close to the Glacier Point turn off and relatively close to the Mariposa Groves. I will definitely stay here again next time we visit Yosemite. Call TODAY if you expect to get reservations! I think their web address is www.yosemitefalls.com. You won't be disappointed!!!

God's Plan for Saving Man
Faith – Repentance – Baptism
Faith (27 min)
Hebrews 11:6 says that without faith it is impossible to please God, and yet many in the religious world do not actually understand what biblical faith really is. This study examines the definition of faith and then explains how it works with grace in the saving of man.
Repentance (28 min)
This has often been called the most difficult commandment in the Bible to obey. Though simple in concept, repentance is frequently misunderstood. This lesson explains that repentance is more than simply ceasing to sin. It is more than mere sorrow. Bible passages and practical examples are employed to explain God's view of repentance.
Baptism (28 minutes)
The role of baptism in salvation is widely debated in the religious world. Is baptism necessary to be saved? Should we be baptized simply because Jesus was? Is it merely symbolic in nature, or is it necessary? This classs anwsers these questions and covers the essential information provided in the New Testament with regard to baptism.
Bonus Content:
The Thief on the Cross (27 min)
One of the most frequent objections offered to baptism is the thief on the cross. People will argue, "The thief on the cross wasn't baptized, and he was saved, therefore I don't have to be baptized. I want to be saved like the thief on the cross. " Is this a valid argument? Can we be saved like the thief on the cross? Don Blackwell will examine the account of the thief on the cross and answer these questions from the Bible.
8 Frequently Asked Questions About Baptism (36 min)
While the subject of baptism in the Bible is straightforward, there is still much confusion in the religious world. There are common arguments that many people try to use against the necessity of the Bible's teaching on baptism. Follow along with Don Blackwell as he addresses frequently asked questions about baptism.
What must I do to be saved? (30 min)
The answer to this question has implications both now and for eternity. Sadly, wrong answers are being given all the time. In this study, Don Blackwell opens the Bible and shares God's answer to this question. It is a simple, straight-forward study done in a kind and loving manner. With a question of this magnitude, you can't afford to be wrong.
Staying Saved (32 min)
"The Truth About… Staying Saved" covers what one must do after obeying the Gospel. What do Christians do to stay in a proper relationship with God? Are there characteristics thought should become part of their daily lives? We live in a world of religious confusion. Worship has become more about the individual than about God. But in the midst of the confusion, the Bible remains clear. Don Blackwell and Neal Pollard deal with basic principles of worship in a simple and concise manner that rings true to the Word of God. Whether a new convert or a diligent seeker of truth, these lessons will benefit and strengthen you.
Saved without a Doubt? (26 min)
Can you truly know you are saved? Do you constantly beat yourself up for sins committed years ago? Do you struggle with the feeling that you are not perfect? Are you filled with worry and dread about your eternity? do you have constant doubts whether you will go to heaven? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this video is for you. In this study Don Blackwell opens the book of 1 John and draws from each chapter points that instill hope and confidence in the heart of each faithful Christian. It is a study of "blessed assurance."

A traditional Greek dip with the appealing bite of fresh garlic, this version uses potatoes as a creamy base, along with almonds and plenty of olive oil.
In a large pot, cover potatoes with cold water and bring to boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook until very tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, reserve 1/2 cup potato-cooking water, and drain. When potatoes are cool enough to handle, press through a potato ricer or use a potato masher until no lumps remain.
In a food processor, pulse garlic and almonds until puréed, scraping sides of processor when needed. Drizzle in olive oil and pulse until smooth.
Pour mixture into mashed potatoes and add lemon juice. Add 2 to 4 tablespoons of potato water and stir to combine (add more water for a thinner consistency). Season with salt and white pepper. Spread skordalia into a shallow serving dish, dribble with olive oil, and sprinkle with dried oregano.

Explore mysterious hidden worlds with a sea cave trip in Mallorca. The island has a number of fascinating cave networks, some of which are close by if you're staying in Cala Bona.
Take a boat from Cala Bona down the coast to Cala Varques, where you'll find the famous Pirate Cave. Swim around into the cave and see the incredible colours and strange rock formations. You can get out of the water and explore more of the cave on foot, just make sure you're careful and listen to your guide.
Ten minutes south of Cala Bona you can enjoy a trip to the Caves of Drach in Porto Cristo. Translating as the 'Dragon Caves', this mysterious underground network even has a lake that's over 100 metres long, formed from sea water. Combine a visit to these caves with an afternoon exploring this quaint little fishing village, which has a relaxed atmosphere.
Less than 20 minutes to the north of Cala Bona you'll also find the Cuevas de Arta. Right by the sea surrounded by tall mountains and dramatic cliffs, you'll climb up some steps to the incredible cave entrance. See the fascinating stalactites and stalagmites with their extraordinary shapes as you move through the caves and descend towards the impressive Hall of Columns and Hell chamber.
After an exciting day exploring Majorca's sea caves, recover over a few drinks at Sanddancers Bar. There you can plan your next day's activities, whether you want to go on a scuba diving trip or explore more of the island's east coast.

Set in 1933, King Kong tells the story of an ambitious filmmaker who coerces his cast and hired ship crew to travel to the mysterious Skull Island. There they encounter Kong, a legendary giant gorilla, whom they capture and take to New York City.

Q: Prevent S3 user from posting to public buckets? Suppose a public bucket exists that has a very similar name to my private bucket. I want to prevent a user from misspelling the private bucket and accidentally posting sensitive data to the public.
I understand that it would be best practice to make the bucket name as unique as possible.
Clarification: I want to prevent a user from posting to ANY public S3 bucket

A: Public Buckets are very rare. In fact, they are highly discouraged from a security perspective and also from a cost perspective -- somebody could upload illegal files and use it for file sharing, and the bucket owner would pay for it!
I would normally say that the chance of somebody being able to successfully upload to a random bucket is practically zero, but I suspect you are thinking of a case where an evil party might create a similarly-named bucket in the hope of collecting confidential data (similar to domain-name camping).
In that case, you can create a Deny policy on the user to prohibit access to ALL S3 buckets, except for the ones you specifically nominate:
{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "Allow",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "s3:*"
            ],
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:s3:::good-bucket1",
                "arn:aws:s3:::good-bucket2"
            ]
        },
        {
            "Sid": "NotOthers",
            "Effect": "Deny",
            "Action": [
                "s3:*"
            ],
            "NotResource": [
                "arn:aws:s3:::good-bucket1",
                "arn:aws:s3:::good-bucket2"                ]
        }
    ]
}

This will work because the Deny against the IAM User will override any Allow in a Bucket Policy. The only downside is that you will need to specifically list the buckets you wish to include/exclude because there is no way to specify that rules apply to "a public bucket".

A: You have no control over the other bucket, so you can't prevent this happening.
To respond to it, I suppose you could query that bucket periodically, assuming it's publicly readable, in search of content that you think should have been uploaded to your bucket though it's not clear what you would do at that point.
Alternatively, provide your users with an upload page (maybe statically-hosted in your S3 bucket) and ask your users to use that page to initiate uploads (via POST or AWS S3 JavaScript SDK) so users do not have to type in a bucket name and hence cannot accidentally target the wrong bucket.

Newsom names lawmaker to chair gubernatorial bid
PUBLISHED: July 15, 2009 at 12:00 a.m. | UPDATED: August 30, 2017 at 11:41 a.m.
SACRAMENTO – San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom on Wednesday said state Sen. Alex Padilla will serve as chairman of his campaign for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination.
Newsom hopes the former Los Angeles City Council member will help him make inroads with Hispanics in Southern California, a key voting bloc that is up for grabs since Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa announced he will not run for governor in 2010.
Former governor and current Attorney General Jerry Brown, who has hinted that he also will seek the Democratic nomination, has solid support in the Hispanic community and is well ahead of Newsom in fundraising.
Padilla said he hopes a new generation of voters will look to the San Francisco mayor, echoing a message the Newsom campaign sounded at the state party's spring convention.
"Just as times have changed, so has the Latino community. It's grown in size and it's certainly diversified – demographically, socioeconomically," Padilla said.
He said education, health care and environmental quality are top issues for Hispanic voters.
Padilla was the youngest president of the Los Angeles City Council before he was elected to the Senate from the San Fernando Valley in 2006. He also has served as president of the League of California Cities.
Newsom calls him "one of the brightest and most accomplished rising political stars" in the country.
The Democratic nominee is likely to face one of three candidates who have indicated they will seek the Republican nomination for governor: state Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner, former U.S. Rep. Tom Campbell and former eBay chief executive Meg Whitman, who this week added $15 million of her own money to her campaign.

There is an intimate, understated gallery on the third floor of 95 Empire Street in Providence, RI. This once-abandoned industrial space is owned by the neighboring art organization, AS-220, and features illustrations by Carl Dunn.
Carl's art is intrinsically thoughtful; and while each piece is powerful enough to stand alone, the exhibit is unified by his signature, eccentric style.
Mr. Dunn studied at the prestigious Parsons School of Design in New York City and spent a semester developing his craft in Paris. His work has been featured in Bloomberg Business, The New Yorker and Rolling Stone. Carl is well-spoken, insightful and engaging. Like many, he spent the holidays visiting with family.
While Carl's quiet existence may seem insipid it is anything but: Less than a year ago, Carl was homeless; living on the streets, begging strangers for spare change, debilitated by mental illness and addiction. His unique artistic perspective is magnified by the difficulty of his journey.
In 2010, after a series of disagreements with his girlfriend and their landlord, Carl found himself without a home and unable to make a living – his art supplies had been thrown out along with almost all of his clothing and possessions. Without a cell phone or address, he lost touch with his art-buyer clientele and his life quickly spiraled into squalor.
This man would wander the streets of Providence for the next four years in complete despondency. He slept in entryways and abandoned houses and ate out of trash cans, all while battling crippling, acute behavioral health problems.
He was diagnosed years later with psychosis, severe anxiety, and major depressive disorder.
Living on the streets, Carl continued to combat his chronic mental illnesses the only way he knew how: by drinking.
A half-gallon of vodka – that's the equivalent of consuming about 40 drinks at your local bar.
Then one day, a woman driving through the city lowered her car's window to speak to the unkempt man holding a sign on the side of the road.
"Are you Carl Dunn?" she asked.
This woman, an employee of The Providence Center (TPC), told Carl that a friend had put him on the waiting list for TPC's Home Base – a program that supports homeless individuals who have co-occurring mental health problems – and encouraged him to get help.
Carl attended a few meetings at Home Base but eventually stopped going and continued to heavily imbibe.
Fortunately, Home Base Assistant Manager Dave Gendreau did not give up on his client. Dave tracked down Carl and told him that if he continued to attend his appointments at The Providence Center, it was likely he could be given an apartment.
"It took several conversations over the course of a few years to get Carl to believe we could help," Dave said.
Finally, Dave's persistence had paid off and Carl took responsibility for his recovery.
When he arrived at The Providence Center, a psychiatrist helped sort out his medications. Then, Home Base Manager Tracey Correia contacted Mosaic House – a Providence Center transitional home for people battling substance abuse – and he was admitted that night.
Carl elaborated on the effectiveness of Tracey's method.
Once at Mosaic House, Carl began taking the medications as prescribed by the psychiatrist. He was amazed at the results.
The team at Home Base went to work to secure permanent housing for Carl. The goal was to keep him in transitional housing until an apartment was ready.
Success. Since being released from Mosaic House and moving into a TPC sponsored apartment, Carl has maintained sobriety and rediscovered his former profession. He recently sold several pieces of artwork from his new gallery.
"Art has really helped in my recovery, it's given me a sense of purpose," he said.
Despite the turmoil Carl experienced over the last five years, he avoids his former pessimism.
After saying this, Carl began to pick at the short fingernails on one of his large weathered hands. He looked down, shook his head and let out an introspective sigh.

The influence on Marcus tullius cicero on modern legal and political ideas
Mortimer Newlin Stead Sellers
Marcus Tullius Cicero is the father of modern law and politics. Cicero's influence was significant throughout subsequent European history, but never so much nor so directly as in the emergence of modernity and in the development of modern law and constitutional government. The early moderns became faithful apostles of Cicero's thought and ideals because their world and political circumstances were in many ways closer to those of Cicero than to those of any intervening centuries. The influence of Cicero's legal and political ideas on the modern world illustrates the decisive importance that the study of history can have on legal innovation and social change. The modern world would not have developed where it did, when it did, nor as it did were it not for the life and writings of Marcus Tullius Cicero.

The key drivers for an effective content-driven campaign don't sit on a flip chart in the meeting room of your PR agency – it starts at the top.
Let's face it, the Romans were a pretty smart bunch really. Putting aside the miracles of sanitation, politics, andbuilding the A5 – they were also rather good at delivering integrated content (albeit along the sort of lines that made Bolshevism a fleeting success).
What they understood (probably far better than the philosophical meanderings of the Greeks before them) was when you have a message to deliver, mobilizing a crowd through powerful narrative, delivered on a multiplicity of platforms, was very much a good (if bloody) idea.
The central hub through which much of this content was delivered admittedly involved a fairly significant loss of life. But behind that bloody gladiatorial spectacle the level of audience engagement enabled significant economic growth and a fair bit of conquest.
You've guessed it. Engaging content that connects to sales.
In the past 2000 years human nature hasn't really changed. We need a sense of community. We need to hear great stories. And we engage most when emotion is ignited. Ask John Lewis (Remember? Cute kid being unfeasibly selfless at Christmas?). Gratuitous but effective.
But if we are looking at a proposition with longevity, propaganda based messaging delivered via controlled channels has, historically, proved a loser. Gaddaffi, Mubarak and Murdoch all stand testament to the powerhouse that is the democratized media landscape. And that's because we are in an era where shouty, non-inclusive marketing, gets flicked a towering crowd-sourced 'v'.
One could therefore argue that effective engagement lays in lobbing out some key messages across all known forms of media (traditional and social) and driving a few well chosen conversations. Surely there has to be more to it than that?
Many talk about story-telling and the efficacy of placing it at the centre of a content marketing strategy, but few achieve that nirvana of engaging a worthwhile audience. Oh… and selling a few more widgets along the way.
Brilliant. Or not… as the case may be.
Where does it sometimes go wrong? Why don't we have endless campaigns oozing brilliance and seemless integration?
Think back to the Romans. Wherever there was an over-arching narrative to be delivered, the messaging was sponsored at the highest political level, this in turn drove engagement and buy-in much further down the food chain.
On a personal level my most recent success have come where there has been an opportunity to deliver some good old fashioned storytelling sessions to key executives. Once they 'get it' at the top of an organization, the storytelling bug flows downhill and permeates the corporate DNA. And we suddenly have spokespeople with belief, candour, and credibility.
The key drivers for a truly effective, integrated, content driven campaign don't sit on a flip chart in the meeting room of your friendly local PR agency – it starts at the top.
I'm not for one minute suggesting board sponsored gladiatorial combat (we all know what happened to the Roman empire), but top-level understanding of our culture and fast changing media landscape can lead to great results.
Now…where did I leave my copy of "Utopia"?

Bella Rosenberg served as the assistant to the president of the American Federation of Teachers from 1984-2005, under Albert Shanker and Sandra Feldman. Albert Shanker was president of the AFT from 1974 to 1997. He was one of the first educators to embrace the findings of the report A Nation at Risk which outlined extensive problems in America's public schools. Shanker and Rosenberg worked closely on various initiatives, many of them in response to the report. This included a peer review program started at the Toledo Federation of Teachers Local 250, a teacher certification program called the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, and in 1988, the concept of charter schools, which later took on a life of its own and became very different from Shanker's original vision. Beginning in 1970, while Shanker was still president of New York's United Federation of Teachers, he wrote a weekly column in the Sunday New York Times titled "Where We Stand". He had to purchase advertising space in order to publish his writing. The weekly column lasted for 26 years. Sandra Feldman became Vice-President of the AFT in 1974, president of the UFT in 1986, and took over presidency of the AFT upon Shanker's death in 1997. She was also involved in the AFL-CIO and Education International, a worldwide federation of teachers' unions. During her AFT presidency, she strengthened the union's relationship with the National Education Association, though a vote to merge with the NEA did not pass. Feldman served as AFT president until 2004.
Rosenberg collaborated with Shanker and Feldman on many projects and initiatives for the AFT. They worked together on articles and speeches, particularly Shanker's "Where We Stand" column. Rosenberg was a primary force in AFT's Lessons for Life Campaign in the mid-1990s, which sought to address issues raised in A Nation at Risk. Rosenberg worked on a report released by the AFT in 2004, for which she analyzed data from the 2003 National Assessment of Educational Progress to conclude charter schools were performing worse than traditional public schools. She also gave many of her own speeches and interviews as a representative of the AFT.
The AFT President's Office: Assistant to the President Bella Rosenberg Records contain correspondence, memos, notes, reports, manuscripts, books, brochures, press releases, surveys, minutes, VHS and audio cassette tapes, and photographic slides documenting the activities of the national office. The collection also contains articles, speeches, and testimonies, including, in some cases, multiple annotated drafts exchanged between Rosenberg and Shanker and Rosenberg and Feldman.


Asparagus is believed to be native to the east Mediterranean and the Middle East. It thrives along sandy riverbanks, shores of lakes and wet, salty coastal areas. It is very salt tolerant. Today it grows "wild" across many of the areas around the world where it is grown for food. Asparagus grows into a tall upright bush. It's hard to say what the asparagus flower means. It's totally discrete. Hard to see, hard to study. Flowers are small, with two yellowish-green rings of petal-like tepals. Still, the asparagus flower is looked fro by the bees, the asparagus being honey-bearing. The leaves of the asparagus are even harder to define. They can't even remind of what usually defines a plant. The leaves barely have the shape of scales.
Medicinal uses: Vegetable eaten raw or boiled, the asparagus has surprising medicinal properties. The asparagus is indicated in some general illnesses like asthenia, anemia, rheumatism, diabetes as well as renal lithiasis. It is firstly a fortifier. From the asparagus offshoots decoction, juice, syrup and tincture are prepared. Very often used is the asparagus juice, a preparation practically accessible to anyone.


Running vSphere 4.1 up1 with SRM 4.1.1 with the latest simulator. Using NFS protocol. Have a volume replicating with snapmirror and a VM inside the VMFS volume at the protected site. All good. However, when I try to setup the SRA it's failing with "Failed to connect to management system address while executing discoverArrays command. Here is a part of the log file with the error: By the way the firewall on the SRM server where the SRA is installed is OFF.
[2011-06-20 21:49:15.012 03924 verbose 'SysCommandLineWin32'] Starting process: "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\VMware\\VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager\\external\\perl-5.8.8\\bin\\perl.exe" "C:/Program Files (x86)/VMware/VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager/scripts/SAN/ONTAP/command.pl"
Also I've tried both the NFS SRA and the Unified version, both exhibit the same errors.
You do not have the options httpd.admin.access or httpd.admin.enable set appropriatly. These may prevent api access which is http based.
I ran into this problem today, we have an SRM setup between a primary site filer and secondary site vfiler (across a WAN, separate networks). I made sure I had httpd options set correctly and I still couldn't connect.
The resolution was I had to add the secondary sites vcenter ip address to the options trusted.hosts of vfiler0, without this I couldn't connect and constantly got the error message "Failed to connect to management system address while executing discoverArrays command"
Resolved my exact issue. Thanks!
I have followed all recommendations here but none works.
My error is "SRA command 'discoverArrays' didn't return a response."
the etc/hosts on file contains hostname and ipaddress of vcenter/srm server.
vcenter server and vcenter SRM are installed on same host but SRM db - sql sits on separate sql host. connection is successful.
vcenter srm server SRA ontap_config.txt - ssl = on (ssl is also enabled on controller).
Windows firewall and antivirus is also disabled..
basically i re-installed the SRAs on both sites after above configs...it worked..


Tensions in Israel are increasing as the Jewish fast and the Muslim feast are set to take place on the same day. But should Muslims give up their holiday joy just to ensure that Jews are not disturbed?
Once every 33 years it happens: Muslims celebrate Eid al-Adha, the Feast of the Sacrifice, and on the same day the Jews are engaged in introspection each looking at their relations with others in the world, and seeking forgiveness, on Yom Kippur. Jews fast while we feast from dawn to dusk in a rare and inexplicable festivity. I assure you that occasionally jokes are cracked about our fast, a month-long fast, compared to our Jewish cousins' single day which they are unable to withstand.
But this year we must celebrate this holiday, no matter what. Because during the summer, nobody celebrated Eid al-Fitr at the height of the war on Gaza, and we don't have another holiday until next summer.
We dub this holiday "Al Eid al Kabir" "the Great holiday." In Judaism, Yom Kippur, is "the holiest day of the year". In our holiday, in addition to sacrificing lots of sheep and calves, emulating the Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) who was on the verge of sacrificing his son Ishmael (Ismail), we have another custom. We each visit all our family members, including those who live outside the neighborhood. We travel wherever we need to travel and greet everyone. In my case I expect to be calling on no less than 30 homes, greeting and well-wishing relatives on a long journey of ten villages and towns. And that's just the obligatory visits, not including hosting others, restaurants and a fun trip for the children to compensate them for enduring the arduous trip. And here my stress level rises as a mother of three children whom I really don't feel like sacrificing for anything or anyone.
For a moment I thought how nice it would be to travel on empty roads not being concerned with looking at red paths marked on the Waze app. But that sweet little dream dissipated in a flash. A warning light came on instead. What will happen in places inhabited by Jews? Would they throw stones at us? That would be indeed dangerous. Would it be regarded as a terrorist attack if they threw a rock or even a filled-up diaper at us?
Some friends with whom I discussed the matter, said they "expected trouble in their place" and that we need to prepare. That fear has been heightened following Protective Edge [called Tzuk Eitan (Strong Cliff) in Hebrew]: perhaps this will give a chance for a repeat performance for those who missed out on attacking Arabs last time? The Cliff has crumbled and there are rocks strewn about, just ready for use.
But how does an Arab prepare for stone throwing? I imagined that the first priority would have to be documentation, because for sure the question would rise as to who threw stones first, the Arab or the Jew? You try to persuade people in this country that an Arab family was going about its business peacefully and joyously and had stones thrown at its car without the family being accused of terrorism. Therefore this documentation is important! What else should have ready? Change of clothes, water and first aid, maybe a replacement car…and her list kept on getting longer.
The smartest way is to look for an alternative. Yep, this is the solution: "get the Waze App to find a path without rock throwing". But hours of thinking and planning proved fruitless. I found out that it is impossible to reach all the destinations with the aunties waiting with coffee and sweets, or with skewers of meat and a fired-up a barbecue, in a path "free of Jews." It's just not possible. We just too are too intermingled with each other.
So I came up with a bright-spark idea: how about inventing an Iron Dome for every Arab vehicle traveling during a holiday? Perhaps giving Muslim revelers armored vehicles would be a pretty nice present from the state to its citizens on Yom Kippur. Why not? It may make up for the Iron Dome and the "Code Red" sirens which did not operate in Bedouin communities in the South. No need to worry about the "Color Red" rocket sirens – we will take care of it ourselves. Between all the slaughtering on the holiday and the lacking sewage infrastructure in Arab towns, everything will be painted red. Then I thought, maybe Israel's chief rabbi could declare Eid al-Adha as an occasion of Pikuach Nefesh for all, where Jewish law says that the saving of human life overrides all other considerations. And believe me, I do have relatives that visiting them falls under Pikuach Nefesh, because if we don't visit them, my family would have to face dreadful consequences. So it looks like I'm really worried.
I thought to myself why are all the Arabs and most of the Jews that I know, able to live in peace with the notion that there will be "troubles" on Yom Kippur. There is no way but to decode that word into riots, violence, racism, terror, fear and intimidation. Why should I have to protect myself from an attack which is known in advance? Why am I supposed to be tolerant and understanding? Why am I expected to lower my profile as in every other year?
This year I have decided that I'm unwilling to collaborate with that. On this Kippur/al-Adha day I will travel as much as I need to and go to where I need to, and I'll continue to dream of a normal country. I'll dream of a country where everyone – Muslim, Jewish, Christian, Baha'i, Armenian, Buddhist and what have you – can act according to their conscience, in their private space, without hurting, or causing pain and suffering to others.
I believe that it is our responsibility to learn about each other, to understand what the people next door do on their holidays – and to get closer to them. The ignorance around us will only disappear if we talk to the Other and show interest in them, and educate everyone that in this world we are not alone. Let us pray, and more importantly do something to bring this day closer to us. If we can rise above our nasty propensities we might even succeed in wishing others happiness and compassion.
Happy holiday to everyone, and Gmar Chatima Tova [May you be inscribed (in the Book of Life) for good].

Odd, in a story about stone throwing he author would not have mentioned the thousands of rock attacks by Arabs on Jews. Just yesterday I watched a video of Arabs in Jerusalem stoning a pre-school for Jewish children. The other day a school bus of young children was stoned. In Jerusalem residents can he heard talking of the mini intifada of attacks against Jews going on every day.
So, maybe the writer of this article should talk to her fellow Arabs of not throwing stones before admonishing anyone else.
And it's not the case that 3 NGOs have volunteers that walk Palestinian children to school every day in Hebron/Al-Khalil due to settlers throwing stones at these children everyday they try and get to school. Nope.
There are no ngos in Hevron protecting the Jews from the Arabs. Israel has to keep part of its army in Hevron to prevent the Palestinians from slaughtering the Jews living there like they did in 1929. In order to pray at the Tomb of the Patriarchs Israelis and Jews need armed protection from the murderous intentions of the Muslim population. Many Jews have been attacked while praying in Hevron or standing guard so others could. It was only last year when a Palestinian terrorist shot and killed an Israeli soldier as he guarded Jews praying.
Israel sees Hevron as the most ancient of Jewish cities. It is also of great religious significance with Abraham and other various members having been buried there.
The bad blood in Hevron stems from Arab and Muslim non-acceptance of Jewish heritage and an unwillingness to share what should be a holy city to both religions. this is truly ironic since Hevron in Hebrew and Arabic means "friend of" as in friend of god.
Dear Pedro, the whole point about the stone-throwing was, that we always hear about Arabs throwing stones, but never about Jews doing it. Therefore the documentation is needed.
Actually, you just have to listen to israelnationalnews radio to hear complaints about Israeli police harshly treating Jewish stone throwers and others participating in price tag attacks. If you read the Times of Israel or Haaretz you will probably read of every stone throwing attack by a Jew on an Arab but rarely the other way around unless a Jew receives an injury.
Then go to maannews and see if that news organization reports on attacks on Jews in Judea and Samaria or in Jerusalem.
Perhaps you might care to take your blinkers off for the holiday Ped. It could be quite an enriching experience.
Funny that whenever a Jew throws a stone it is fine but a young child can get two years if he is suspected of it. Isn' t it odd that whenever rockets are launched the media forget to mention the 5-50 Palestinian people that were shot, bombed, terrorized that day.oh and let us not forget Palestinians do not have a military and are subjected to military law.Israeli Snipers regularly shooting unarmed civilians and during demonstrations. Oh and settler violence is condoned and finally stone throwing is an act of RESISTANCE cos the Palestinians have nothing else. Tear gas which harms, rubber coated bullets which blind, maim and kill children.The world's fourth largest defence force where one bomb can kill 100 people are moaning about stupid stones. Wake up you deluded fool!
Stone throwing is barbaric. It's cave-man. It is not representative of a modern society or government. It is being used by both sides as a religious expression with religious significance. Jews and Palestinians both stuck in thousand-year-old religious dogma. The whole region is run by religion. Example: Israel has State Rabbis, its flag is a religious symbol, its name is religious (The Jewish State), its expansion is justified (to them) by religion, embedding religion into government.
Jewish is a people, not necessarily a religion or race.
So what happened? Any actual (not illustrative) photos of enraged ultra-Orthodox Jews throwing stones at Arabs on Yom Kippur?
I love this writer for unvarnished truth-telling absent unbridled cynicism or total despair.
I'm a woman who loves people and stories about simple folks like myself. They are the protagonists of the stories I write. You'll hear a lot of criticism from me about Israel's leadership but also creative solutions to problems that affect us all.
Things that I've learned from life, in no particular order: sewing, criminology, cooking, social work, gender, fashion design, education and administration, embroidery and a little law — at least until I started dozing off in class. You'll hear more about the connections between all of those things eventually.
I can proudly say that I enlisted in the most gentle — and largest — army in the world, which tries to lead the longest and quietest revolution in human history: the feminist revolution. As a first step I started the AWC (Arab Women in the Center) NGO, which I manage pretty much on a volunteer basis.
I was born 40 years ago to a refugee family Sajara in northern Israel (known today as Ilaniya), and most of my close family live in refugee camps in every corner of the world. I dream of the day when there is peace, some of them return, and we can build a home. We will have calm Jewish neighbors with whom we fight only about the question of whose dog (the Jew or the Arab) made a mess on our shared street.
Until then I will be living in Neve Shalom/Wahat al-Salam raising my three boys together with my partner Omar, and no, we don't have a dog.


Conditions: Lot of humidity, 3°C, no wind.
After a heavy rain, the sky suddenly went cristal clear. So I took my Dobson to a dark lane.
After having a long M82 supernova contemplation, I payed attention to Jupiter.
Its moons were in a rare configuration: all on the same side, but forming a trapeze instead of a line.
From left to right: Io, Callisto, Ganymede, Europa.
I was surprised by the amazing sky quality, seeing perfectly the Great Red Spot and some detail on tropical strips.
I saw an unusual white wave on the right side of the GRS I wanted to keep in memory by doing this sketch.
I could not establish if it was a continuous stream (as I draw it) or a suite of white storm clouds.
I did not find recent picture of Jupiter to confirm.
If somebody observed this, or made a picture at the same period, thanks for leaving a comment.
Very fine details in this wide field, moderate power sketch.
first thanks for your sketch. It looks real good. Show us more!
I just witnessed the birth of a storm on Jupiter !
Thanks Uwe, very interesting indeed.
But I just see the thumbnail, I must be logged on the forum to see the full size.


Choose a child-friendly restaurant that has a nutritious children's menu that includes smaller portion sizes and meals designed to provide ample nourishment for smaller bodies. Many restaurants have menus available online so you can check out the options in advance.
Ask for cut up fruit for your children's appetizer. It will keep them occupied and contribute to the one cup of fruit they need per day.
Request that a child's vegetables be made without added salt. Order a plain baked potato or sweet potato, mash and season lightly at the table.
Encourage fat-free milk, plain water or make your own special "soda" by mixing equal parts fruit juice and sparkling water when dining out.


One of the largest concerns many folks have when it comes to buying larger smartphones, is whether or not it'll fit in their pocket. The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are larger than any iPhone to date, coming in at 4.7" and 5.5" respectively. That being said, many people are already asking about how pocket friendly the new iPhones will be. While I may not have an iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus yet, I do have templates, glue, some poster board, and a few ninja skills!
An interesting conversation was started on Twitter earlier this evening by one of our readers in response to my colleague Peter's editorial on not wanting a bigger iPhone. Essentially, he was asked to get a female's perspective on the larger iPhones and whether or not the larger iPhone 6 Plus would actually appeal to women considering how tight jeans can be, and how dresses in many cases don't have pockets — which shows how much boys know since a lot of dresses nowadays actually do have pockets.
As a woman who wears both tighter jeans and dresses, the answer is no. I'll buy the iPhone that best suits my needs, size be damned. But it's a decision that I think may vary from person to person, not gender to gender. The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus will still appeal to women, but it may just depend on their lifestyle and what kind of wardrobe they own. Setting the fact that most women carry a purse aside, I then began wondering how big of a deciding factor it really could be for some buyers — gender and jean type aside.
Thanks to AppleInsider reader Jeremy, I was able to print out a to-scale replica of both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. I then went out and purchased a piece of poster board that was slightly thinner than my current iPhone 5s. It may not be completely accurate, but it's close enough to judge. I then wrangled a very good friend of mine into finding her tightest pair of skinny jeans and helping me out — thanks Amanda!
Just for fun, I've thrown the HTC One M8 and the Samsung Galaxy S5 into some of the photos below. Because, why not? And in case you're interested, the M8 has a 5" display while the Galaxy S5 sports a 5.1" display.
While not scientific, these photos should give you a decent idea of exactly how you can expect the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus to compare not only each other, but two of the most popular Android smartphones on the market. Obviously some aspects of use can't be considered right now, such as how each device feels in your hand, or weight. That we'll have to wait for. But if you're buying on launch day, perhaps some of the below photos will help you decide between the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.
As a side note, my brother owned a Galaxy Note 3 for a good period of time and despite the screen being a whopping 5.7", it still fit into my pocket just fine. Did it protrude over the top? Sure. But I still would have felt comfortable putting it there if I didn't have my purse with me.
Note: View this article in mobile Safari or on a desktop browser to view the entire gallery.
And one more side note — I didn't snap a shot, but the Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8 do both fit sideways in most front jean pockets, tight or not. Unless of course the front pockets are too shallow.
Will pocketability affect your iPhone buying decision?
If you're planning to pick up either an iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus, does the ability to put it in your pocket affect your decision? And for all the women out there, have you considered staying away from the larger iPhone 6 Plus simply due to clothing constraints? Let me know your thoughts, and what you're planning on buying, in the comments!
