SWBAT determine the distance between two rational numbers on a number line.
Students will tap into their prior knowledge of comparing rational numbers, conversion of rational numbers, and adding rational numbers to determine the distance between two rational numbers on a number line.
This lesson will draw upon prior knowledge for students to determine the distance between two rational numbers. Students will work with positive and negative fractions, positive and negative improper fractions, positive and negative mixed numbers, positive and negative decimals, and integers. Students will need to have a strong understanding of comparing rational numbers, adding integers, absolute values, and conversion of rational numbers. You may find it necessary to do a mini review on some or all of these objectives. This lesson is intended for students to show their understanding of basic examples of rational numbers on a number line to solving real world problems involving determining distance between two rational numbers. This will come up in the next lesson. I would suggest teaching these two lessons consecutively back to back.
As the students enter the room, hand them the bell ringer that will focus on the objective of the day. Students will work independently for 10 minutes. During this time students should practice MP 1, 2, 4, and 5. Walking the room gauging student understanding will benefit the type of open ended questioning you will want to ask during the student activity. This will also drive your whole group instruction. During the whole group discussion we will pull out the calculators as a tool to help us solve these problems. I would suggest you not give the calculators to the students during this time. Give them a chance to grapple through the problem, and see if they ask to use a calculator to help them through the problem. This will be a great assessment of students knowing when to practice MP 5. If students ask to use the calculator, by all means give it to them. This is a great gauge that they are attempting to add the rational numbers to find the distance between them.
After students have had an opportunity to grapple through the problem on their own for 10 minutes, have them discuss their work with one another in their designated groups. Mathematical practice 3 comes into play heavily during this time. Students should also focus on solving the problem with their peers accurately during this time. This places heavy emphasis on MP 6. Students will be given 15 minutes to discuss their findings together. During this time you will want to visit each group to listen to their mathematical discussions, asked guided questions that will help them navigate through the problem, and gather data that will help you guide your whole group discussion. With your lower level learners you may want to take this opportunity to give small group direct instruction so that they may offer rich discussion during the whole group instruction and to pin point what the scaffolding questions you need to ask during the whole group instruction. The scaffolding questions should involve comparing rational numbers, converting rational numbers, and adding absolute values. Please see my teacher resource in the next section to get a better understanding of these examples.
During this time, your goal is for students to share out what was discussed during the student activity. This is the time in which all students are able to learn from one another at one time. Students will share what process they used to solve the problem, what difficulties they are having with the problem, what successes they had while solving the problem, and which strategies were used to accomplish the task. As you walked the room you were able to gauge what questions you will ask during this time. Please use the teacher resource to help with addressing common mistakes, and your direct instruction. During this time it is important for students to have the correct process to solve the problems, and good notes to refer back to as a reference for other problems that will be upcoming.
During your closing summarize what has been learned in the lesson. Choose important points of emphasis that you will want to focus on in a 5 minute summary.

Vita  Chambers (born June 10, 1993) is a Barbadian-Canadian singer and songwriter. She is best known for her hit single "Like Boom" in 2010.

Musical career and early life

Chambers was born in Vancouver, Canada. She then moved to Barbados, where she grew up. She began her career by posting four of her original songs on her MySpace page at the age of 15. She was signed by Sylvia Rhone to Universal Motown when she turned 16.

Chambers was the opening act, singing "Heat Wave", at the November 2009 Thanksgiving Day NFL half-time show featuring a Motown Review by the future of Motown. Chambers' first single, "Young Money", was released in March 2010. Her EP "The Get Go" was released in March with five songs on iTunes. At age 17, Vita toured with fellow Canadian singer Justin Bieber as one of his opening acts on his My World Tour in 2010, as well as performing at Lilith Fair in 2010, Bamboozle Road Show, PopCon, and touring with Forever The Sickest Kids. She also performed with Estelle at the 2010 Soul Train Awards in Atlanta.

Chambers is now an independent artist under her own company Gold Note Productions. She released a single, "Fix You", on December 18, 2012. Fix You was nominated for the Best Dance Record for the 2013 Juno Awards, and within 3 months "Fix You" entered the Top 40 in Canada. Vita was also the #4 Emerging artist on the Canadian Hot 100 Billboard chart. It spent over 20 weeks in the top 100. "Fix You" achieved Gold status in Canada, and has sold over 350,000 copies worldwide to date.

Later that year, Vita released her second single called "What If?" under Gold Note Productions Ltd. In 2014 Vita received 2 nominations at the Canadian Music Radio Awards for Best New Group or Solo Artist CHR and Best New Group or Solo Artist Dance/Urban/Rhythmic.

Vita released a new single called "A+D" on April 21, 2014, which lyrically expressed Vita's strong belief that good is in everyone despite outside influences. She also released a 2014 FIFA World Cup song called "El Camino", produced by Mike Solo with a chorus of 8 kids.

In February 2015, Vita released a new single called "Kings Of Love" along with an accompanying music video directed by Jimmy Keegan. Since then Vita has released "His Love", "A+D Orchestral", "Tell Me", "Ferrous" and "Want You" in 2016.

In 2018 Vita will be releasing her new EP entitled VITA.

Thoughts on how this season will go?
Any predictions? Anyone top contender in East or West?
Ryan lost it's two best pitchers and their best hitter plus a couple seniors that played a big part. They are a pretty young team.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Squirrels have an undefeated season. Lost a couple of hitters, but have the best pitching in the state, and a deep program.
There is a new region set up, with subregions. I'm not sure how state qualifiers will be decided.
Dakotastater wrote: There is a new region set up, with subregions. I'm not sure how state qualifiers will be decided.
What is different about it? I thought they had the sub-regions last season.
Class B is setup exactly the same as last year. 4 from the East and 4 from the West still go. There are still region tournaments.
If Central Cass goes undefeated they will earn it. Especially with playing some quality Class A clubs.
Also - the gap between Central Cass and DLB isn't as wide as you'd think because pitching is the great equalizer. Thompson also had a very good team with a lot of returners. Heart River has one of the best pitchers in the state. Never know!
Not sure how that idea about regions popped into my head. But I'll stick with Central Cass way out in front. The state championship game was a pretty good indicator of the difference between CC and DLB, and I don't think it got any closer since.
The east will be filled in with the usual suspects. I'd expect CC, Kindred, and Thompson to be the state qualifiers with HCV and Grafton favored for the other slot and Northern Cass, and MPCG making it interesting.
Good to see some more teams starting programs this year!
I thought Grafton lost a huge senior class? I would also throw Hankinson in there. They have had pretty young teams the last two years.
With DLB the clear favorite in the West, what are some other teams to watch for potential state tournament teams? With Velva gaining the two Passa girls, does it make them a contender? Wilton-Wing has been competitive in years past, how do they fair this year?
This is the first score I've seen so far. Some games are rescheduled because of field conditions.
DLB takes on both Central Cass and Thompson April 26th and 27th in Casselton. Bishop Ryan, Heart River, Stanley, Kindred, Watford City, and Velva are out there too from what I've seen on the NDHSAA schedule page.
Looks like quite the invitational with many of the would-be state contenders involved. Could be some interesting games to take in.
Minot Ryan beat Stanley 42-2.
That is the type of score coaches have been fired or forced to resign for in other sports around the country.
Attack the Process wrote: Minot Ryan beat Stanley 42-2.
I think all of us understand being short handed, wild pitching, and injuries. I just still believe as a head coach, you never want to embarrass a school that bad. Minot Ryan may not have ran it up on purpose, but that score doesn't sit well with me. That being said, I would have this opinion if it was any other school as well.
What if I told you Stanley walked batters?
Stanley SP got hurt at start of 3rd inning; BR had 27 hits, 24 walks taken, 5 errors on Stanley (and 10+ passed balls). Source said BR held up athletes from taking extra bases it just ballooned quickly with injuries and JV athletes having to play more than usual.
I'll never question a coach's ethics unless I hear about how a score got out of hand and even then most of the time I don't believe it. From what I've heard so far I see nothing wrong. How much different does one feel if the game is 28-2? It hurt Stanley that they were the home team and Ryan got to bat in the 5th inning.
It's softball. You can't tell kids to make outs on purpose.
You can, though, and you can do it in a quick and tasteful way without ruining kids' stats. You can leave the base early with runners on. It's not an unknown rule and it's a common way for teams in softball to keep the game moving along so that scores like this don't happen.

You're right. I had never thought of that before. I coached SB 5 years and never saw this. I never saw 42-2 either.
That didn't age well. The east may be more open than I thought.
I think this game said more about Hankinson than it did about Central Cass. I feel the Pirates have looked very good at times over the past two years. They struggled with injuries and consistency (as many young teams do). I look for them to be an absolute contender to get to state. To me, it's Central Case, Kindred, H-CV, Hankinson, and Northern Cass from the south and Thompson and MPCG from the North that are the main contenders for four state tournament spots.


Using lasers in machinery is a basic condition for most large companies today, but smaller companies have much to gain. This is especially since the price of current measurement systems is more than reasonable. Together with vibration analysis in Texas, the alignment of machinery is where you save the most money. If your machines are aligned correctly, your business will save time and money.
Aligning machines and performing vibration analysis in Texas is actually one of the best investments you can make for the environment. We all know that reducing energy consumption is closely related to preserving the environment. It also helps in the area of fuel, coal and gas consumption. Every day the service life of bearings, seals and other components continue to wear and tear. By using laser machinery, over a period of time, say five years, you can halve the use of spare parts, and also halve the energy consumption required to produce them.
If a pump seal leaks due to misalignment, unnecessary amounts of liquids are wasted. You may need more lubricant to make the machine work properly. In other words, a properly aligned machine is more austere with the right resources. Certain liquids are harmful to the environment and if you can prevent them from leaking into the atmosphere, you should do so.
For years laser alignment equipment has been thought to be the best in the business. It is used in the connection of shafts of motors and pumps, mixers, fans, compressors, etc. to ensure proper alignment. Using laser machinery not only helps with long-term use, but the electricity savings could be up to 3 times greater than what companies are saving now. This fact alone has changed the mind of many companies, causing them to switch to laser machinery. If you are interested in learning more about vibration analysis in Texas, contact Laser Precision today.

Geoff Gallop on learning from how Australia advanced its thinking on First Peoples in the past, and can maybe learn how to do reform again
By Geoff Gallop
As Australia and the First peoples contemplate treaty and constitutional recognition, there must be an acceptance that there are two major players in this, the First Peoples and the Australian electorate. A facilitated dialogue, like a mini-public may have the best likelihood of people and ideas coming together in the search for the best outcome.
This article is adapted from the 2019 Reid Oration, delivered by Emeritus Professor Geoff Gallop, and hosted in Perth, Western Australia by IPAA WA on August 27, 2019.
I'm delighted to be delivering the Gordon Reid Oration this evening, in fact for the second time, the first being in 1999 when I examined the issue of the line we need to draw between…
Geoff Gallop was the 27th Premier of Western Australia, from 2001 to 2006 during a 20-year career in state parliament. He is currently Emeritus Professor, Government and International Relations at the University of Sydney, having served as Director of the Graduate School of Government until 2015.

The first three next-generation NH90 Tactical Transport Helicopters (TTH) were handed over to the German Army at Eurocopter's Donauwörth facility in the presence of a large group of guests from the German Federal Ministry of Defence, the Federal Office of Defence Technology and Procurement, NAHEMA (NATO HElicopter Management Agency) as well as the German Army on December 13th, 2006.
This major event on the first delivery of the biggest military helicopter programme ever launched by Europe, stands as the materialization of the Production Investment and the Production (PI/P) contract signed in Paris on June 30th, 2000, when Germany, together with France, Italy and The Netherlands, placed an order for 300 NH90 (243 firm and 57 options).
The German Army is the first customer to take delivery of the NH90. The aircraft with the serial numbers TGEA02 and TGEA03 will be used for flight training at the German Army Air Corps Weapons School in Bückeburg, while serial number TGEA05 will be used to train maintenance staff.

Of the three South Caucasus states, Azerbaijan has long been considered to be the most stable, at least since the war with Armenia over Nagorno-Karabakh ended in 1994. President Heydar Aliyev—father of the current president—sought to bring order and economic development to the country, in part due to the "contract of the century" which awarded exploitation of much of the country's oil reserves to British Petroleum. While Azerbaijan was hardly "democratic" in the late 1990's, governance under Heydar Aliyev included a veneer of pluralism as the country emerged from years of internal chaos and war.
But since Heydar's death in late 2003, the domestic political landscape has been bleak under the rule of his son Ilham, who has presided over a crackdown on dissent that has progressively worsened in the past nine years. The situation has been particularly worrisome since 2012, when a riot broke out in the city of Quba, about 90 miles northwest of the national capital of Baku.
What is truly remarkable in Azerbaijan's recent past, and what may signal a fundamental shift in the country's political dynamic, is a new pattern consisting of a series of unexpected, spontaneous outbreaks of violence since last year. The three major "explosions," accompanied by a number of lesser but still significant political events, are indications that Azerbaijan may be entering a new, unstable period in its modern history.
We will review these events briefly and then explore the government's reaction as well as aspects of the opposition strategy in the run-up to the presidential election in October. Is a revolution brewing? Does the president possess the vision to address the underlying forces that are destabilizing the country? Will the Azerbaijani people turn toward a "new wave" of youth and other activists who will topple the Aliyev government?
The resulting explosion of outrage caught everyone off guard, and despite attempts by the governor to apologize for his unguarded remarks, what began as merely a demonstration quickly spiraled into a riot, with protesters smashing windows of government buildings and, according to reports, setting fire to a house owned by Habibov.
After responding with force against the rioters, the Baku government dismissed the governor soon afterwards. But many protestors were arrested, with several convictions in the months that followed.
About a thousand shopkeepers clashed with police in January of this year at the Bina Market, situated on the outskirts of Baku, after their rent was raised by more than $300 a month. The market, a popular shopping area, "reportedly has indirect ties to state officials," according to Radio Free Europe. Thousands more shopkeepers went on strike in a show of support for those who blocked off access to a road and were subsequently tear gassed by police in the skirmishes that followed.
In late January, a random car wreck in the resort town of Ismayilli, about a hundred miles northwest of Baku, erupted into a scene of violence and general mayhem lasting two days. It all began when Vugar Alkeperov, the son of the Minister of Labor and Social Protection and nephew of the minister's brother—who happened to be the Ismayilli governor—was allegedly involved in a collision with a taxi. According to press reports, Alkeperov got into a quarrel with the taxi driver after the crash and then made insulting comments regarding Ismayilli women, all of which was followed by a blowup with local men and the torching of a hotel that may have been connected to the governor and, according to rumors, housed a brothel. Ismayilli resembled a combat zone for the next few days, with thousands of locals battling police and setting fire to more buildings (and luxury cars thought to belong to officials) before order was restored.
Sensing a public relations debacle, President Aliyev fired the governor three weeks later and went on national television to scold the sons of government officials for their "obnoxious behavior." But the prosecutor's office acted much more quickly in arresting two well-known opposition figures—Ilgar Mammadov and Tofiq Yaqublu—for inciting violence and resistance to police, although the two men arrived separately in Ismayilli after the riots began and stayed briefly before returning to Baku.
First, and most importantly, they were "organic." Neither the formal opposition parties nor the youth opposition groups announced that demonstrations would be held in Ismayilli, the Bina Market, or Quba. These events—sudden, unexpected, and violent—erupted from the ground up.
This is hugely significant, since it means the opposition party apparatus, beleaguered by years of government pressure against it, is no longer necessary to motivate ordinary people.
Second, the explosions in the regions and at the Bina Market were viral and attracted thousands of participants almost immediately. Thus, these demonstrations were much larger than anything the opposition have tried to arrange since the Arab Spring or at any time since 2005, when an attempted Azeri Color Revolution was snuffed out by the police and internal security forces.
Third, the outbreaks have not been anti-Aliyev, and their goals were not ambitiously over-arching. Last year's rioters in Quba didn't torch the governor's house because they wanted to topple the president. They, and the protesters this year, were reacting to local, accidental tripwires – the intemperate comments of an arrogant apparatchik in Quba and a random car wreck in Ismayilli. The real issues are economic burdens that lead people to sell their land out of desperation and a deep, simmering resentment over systemic corruption that pervades every aspect of life in Azerbaijan.
Fourth, the two largest riots happened not in Baku, but in the "regions," which is Azeri-speak for any province ("region") outside of the Absheron peninsula, where Baku is located. The Bina Market incident took place on Baku's outskirts, far from the city center, where the opposition prefers to stage its poorly attended demonstrations.
Finally, despite number three above, a critical mass may be developing that threatens to destabilize the national government on a fundamental level, rendering the president's rule illegitimate in the eyes of many ordinary Azeris. This is because the recent incidents were breathtakingly swift, and the violence that followed was both surprising and carefully targeted. This implies a deep reservoir of pent-up anger, and where it has expressed itself in one region, it may emerge in others.
The continuing arrests of journalists and opposition figures on dubious charges speak to a very real sense of fear at the highest levels of government. And it's the fear, along with a mentality that the power structure must be maintained at any cost, that has been responsible for retarding democratic and economic development in Azerbaijan.
Why the president, an intelligent man, would react as he has—hurling at his opponents a set of rather blunt weapons such as imprisonment on hooliganism charges and stiff penalties for attending unsanctioned rallies—has perplexed many foreign analysts. But Ilham Aliyev, for all his skills, is apparently unable to react in any other way—largely because his conception of government and his role in it is so foreign to both his friends and critics in the West.
While the Arab Spring sultanates were overthrown, there is no national effort to bring down the government of Ilham Aliyev.
The reason may have something to do with the implied contract that has existed between the Azerbaijani people and the President Aliyev since he came to power after a flawed election in late 2003.
The importance of the explosions in places like Ismayilli is that many people in the regions are beginning to view the "contract" as null and void.
And when that sort of thing happens, ruling regimes everywhere get nervous.
Normally, "forces abroad" is a transparent code for Armenia, but hints in the press reveal that the Aliyev government might have Russia in mind this time, with a number of sources speculating that the "Moscow Billionaires' Club"—a group of wealthy Russians of Azeri ethnicity—is involved in destabilizing Azerbaijan.
The best-known proponent of this theory isn't from Azerbaijan or even Russia, however. After a visit to Baku in late February, Georgian president Mikheil Saakashvili warned reporters that the Russian government, acting in collaboration with certain members of the Billionaires' Club, is planning to "arrange a change of power in Azerbaijan using a large amount of money." The Ismayilli incident was so sudden and violent that, according to some, Russia and the billionaires must have played a role.
One of the problems with blaming the billionaires for Ismayilli or the spate of demonstrations in Baku is that Azerbaijan's entrenched graft, along with the persecution of activists, was in place long before the creation of the club. The group may represent a new and worrisome factor for the Aliyev government, but its existence is not necessary to account for the explosions of anger we have seen recently in Azerbaijan.
If the unrest continues, the president will find that he has few options, since there is no mechanism in place such that the government can respond in a calm, mature fashion and engage in a rational discussion of issues such as corruption and democratic development. Because he does not see these topics as legitimate issues for examination in the first place, President Aliyev does not appear to have the conceptual tools to respond by engaging the very people he is imprisoning.
Pitting itself against the Aliyev government is a new, loose-knit group of liberal, educated youth activists and others, some of whom have ties to the two main opposition parties – the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan (PFPA) and the Musavat Party. But many in the Azeri new wave see no reason to support a party apparatus that, to them, is exhausted after a successful multi-year effort by the Aliyev government to render it impotent.
Two of the more significant new wave organizations are REAL (Republican Alternative) and NIDA (the Azeri word for an exclamation point), both of which have attracted the attention of the prosecutor's office. Ilgar Mammadov, who was arrested for his alleged involvement in the Ismayilli unrest, is REAL's presidential candidate for the upcoming election. At press time, he was languishing in jail awaiting trial.
NIDA is more youth-oriented than REAL and has been singled out in the last year as the government's chief target for prosecution. By early March, seven NIDA activists had been arrested, with two of them confessing on national television to planning the use of Molotov cocktails against police during the March 10 protest discussed below. Many observers have commented that the "confessions" appeared to be staged, raising concerns about improper police coercion and lack of due process.
Ol! ("To Be!") is another group being harassed by the government, although it does not have the same sort of political agenda as NIDA or REAL. Creative and multi-faceted, Ol! was instrumental in the creation of Azad Fikir ("Free Thought") University, funded by foreign partners such as USAID and the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). Another of the university's partners is the National Democratic Institute (NDI), which is under intense scrutiny by the prosecutor's office for alleged financial irregularities. Azad Fikir University was recently shut down by the Azerbaijani authorities.
By far the most visible and talked-about figure in the Azeri new wave is Emin Milli, who as of April was living in Berlin, where he had founded a new TV station dedicated to bringing down the Aliyev government. Milli spends an enormous amount of time in the west, being feted in places such as Berlin, Stockholm, and Prague, where he makes "historic" speeches.
Milli has paid a price for his pro-democracy efforts, spending 16 months in a squalid prison after his involvement in promoting the now-famous "donkey blog" video, which ridiculed the Aliyev government.
Since his release from prison and subsequent sojourn to the UK, where he earned a master's degree, Milli has become the rock star of the opposition new wave, in no small measure due to his talents at engaging with audiences and an articulate, telegenic persona. But he engages best with adoring foreign audiences who tend to be captivated by the dramaturgical element in his personal story. For Milli's more skeptical Azeri audience, he continues to promote a two-pronged approach that is clearly not working: an overemphasis on Baku, where the opposition has focused its efforts, and an infatuation with social media as a key ingredient of regime change. A glance at how this model has performed should indicate just how feeble it is.
During 2011's Arab Spring, both the new wave and the formal opposition parties promoted the expectation that President Aliyev would, like Zine El Abidine Ben Ali of Tunisia and Egypt's Hosni Mubarak, be overthrown. A series of demonstrations was planned, the most significant of which was the "Great People's Day," when protests would take place across the country. Milli and a few other ex-pat Azeri youth living in France, the Netherlands and elsewhere were among the major proponents who spread the word via Facebook.
But the Great People's Day was a bust, largely ignored in the countryside, and attracting no more than a few hundred participants in the capital. The police responded with their usual modus operandi of swooping down on small groups of demonstrators as soon as they gathered, arresting a handful, and scattering the remainder while roughing up a few people in the process.
Likewise, the day after the Quba riots in 2012, Milli called for mass protests across Azerbaijan in an interview from the UK with Voice of America. The country shrugged, and life went on as usual.
Once again, after this year's Ismayilli incident, the opposition called on Facebook for a solidarity demonstration in Baku that would take place on January 26. And once again, several hundred people showed up, with the police easily dispersing the protesters.
Not long afterwards, a major demonstration was announced by Milli and his supporters which would take place on March 10, ostensibly in response to widespread abuse of conscripts in Azerbaijan's military. This would be the most significant event in years and would, Milli insisted on Facebook, involve "all the cities of Azerbaijan," attracting more than 16,000 people in Baku alone who would flood the streets in a mass action.
On the 10th of March, some five hundred protestors marched in downtown Baku, with several dozen arrests.
One would think that after such paltry results, the new wave might engage in a period of reflection, asking if perhaps they have failed to connect with ordinary Azeris. And while a survey I conducted in February reveals that a number of new wave activists acknowledge that they have not done enough to reach out to those in the regions, Milli recently doubled down by telling a foreign newspaper that Azerbaijan is now teetering on the brink of "civil war," an astonishing declaration given the lack of interest displayed by the very people he claims to represent.
Continuing comparisons to the Arab Spring and predictions of imminent regime change are heady stuff. But as is often the case, reality is less dramatic and requires both hard work and analysis of unpalatable facts. One of these facts is that President Aliyev has been, for most of his tenure, relatively popular – Azerbaijan's deplorable human rights situation notwithstanding. The failure to recognize this, together with the "two-pronged" approach discussed above, leads to blind alleys and false conclusions.
Despite the hyperbole of those who warn that Azerbaijan is heading toward a revolution, this outcome is unlikely. Ideological rhetoric about freedom of speech mouthed by university-educated activists from TV studios in Berlin or on Facebook is lost on people in rural Azerbaijan who have no jobs, no computers, and no toilets in their homes. The internet "penetration rate" is thus meaningless to most people in the regions, where the actual resistance to government corruption and abuse is taking place.
Though many of the new wave dismiss the opposition old guard as irrelevant, the latter have done a much better job of connecting with the regions, mainly due to the simple fact that they have been around longer and can still utilize the remnants of their party infrastructure. Both Musavat and the Popular Front Party have a recognized history and presence in the regions that the new wave lacks.
Azerbaijan's voiceless and powerless may yet produce something that resembles an uprising, although more frequent, uncoordinated eruptions are probably where the country is headed. They will occur in isolated geographic pockets and won't be "virtually inspired." The interactive twitter maps with dazzling nodes of color stretching over national boundaries and continents will be about the observers, not the participants.
A civil war is not in the offing, but the near-term future looks to be increasingly unstable as an election approaches.
Karl Rahder first came to the Caucasus in 2004, when he was a CEP Visiting Faculty Fellow, teaching Cold War history and US foreign policy at Baku State University and Baku Slavian University. He then worked as the South Caucasus correspondent for ISN Security Watch (Zurich) from 2005 until 2011. Based in Baku, Tbilisi, and the US, he has covered regional conflict, geopolitics and human rights in the former USSR and the Balkans. Karl has been interviewed as a regional expert by the Voice of America, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and other news organizations. In 2009, he taught at the Georgia Institute for Public Affairs in Tbilisi, and until recently, wrote the South Caucasus blog for the Foreign Policy Association. His MA in international relations is from the University of Chicago.
 The troubling human rights situation in Azerbaijan has been well documented. For a primer, readers can consult "Human Rights in Azerbaijan," Human Rights Watch, http://www.hrw.org/europecentral-asia/azerbaijan, accessed April 16, 2013, as well as "Azerbaijan," US Department of State, Country Reports on Human Rights Practices for 2012, http://paei.state.gov/j/drl/rls/hrrpt/2012humanrightsreport/index.htm?year=2012&dlid=204262#wrapper, accessed April 19, 2013, and "Azerbaijan," Freedom House, http://www.freedomhouse.org/country/azerbaijan, accessed April 16, 2013. Freedom House has consistently ranked Azerbaijan as "not free" for many years.
 Survey conducted via Surveymonkey.com. Fourteen opposition figures living in Azerbaijan and abroad were approached to take part, with ten participating. Respondents were members of NIDA as well as other opposition groups and independent activists. Nine of the ten respondents indicated that the opposition has spent "almost no time" or "some time, but not enough" in the regions collecting information and listening to local concerns. Five of the ten said that people in the regions view the opposition as "not very relevant to their needs and aspirations," while one said that the opposition is "totally irrelevant." Emin Milli did not respond to several requests to take part in the survey.
 The president's popularity is difficult to gauge accurately; election numbers are almost meaningless given Azerbaijan's poor track record of election administration. For independent data on the president's popularity, see "Azerbaijan in 2006-2010," Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung, http://www.fes.ge/images/Fes_Files/ASPublications/2010/az_survey_fes.pdf, accessed March 31, 2013.
It should be noted that the Friedrich Ebert Foundation reported to me on April 22, 2013 that the confusing table on page 11 of their study is in error, and that in 2010, 70.5% of respondents said that they "fully trust" President Aliyev. It is, however, debatable as to how reliable such data are when a poll is taken in a country where individual freedoms are limited and people may not be fully candid in sharing their views.

Q: Best way to handle user specific date/timezone conversion with Spring MVC + Freemarker I want to display a stored date (timezone is UTC) formatted with the user's timezone (may vary per each user and is stored in profile).
The solution I came up with is the following one and I want to know if this is the best way to do it, or if there is another, maybe simpler solution.
Timezone set to UTC with:
-Duser.timezone=UTC

Controller, Freemarker-Template, HandlerInterceptor:
Controller:
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/test")
public class TestController {

        @RequestMapping
        public String dateTest(Model model){
                final Date date = new Date();
                model.addAttribute("formattedDate", new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss").format(date));
                model.addAttribute("date", date);
                return "test";
        }
}

Freemarker-Template:
<#setting time_zone="${currentTimeZone}">

UTC Time: ${formattedDate}

Localized time for timezone ${currentTimeZone}: ${date?time}

HandlerInterceptor:
public class TimezoneHandlerInterceptor extends HandlerInterceptorAdapter{

        @Override
        public void postHandle(HttpServletRequest request,
                        HttpServletResponse response, Object handler,
                        ModelAndView modelAndView) throws Exception {

                //Only for testing, in production something like:
                //final String currentUserTimezone = userService.getCurrentUser().getTimezoneId();
                final String currentUserTimezone = "Europe/Berlin";

                modelAndView.addObject("currentTimeZone", currentUserTimezone);
        }
}

Output:
UTC Time: 08:03:53
Localized time for timezone Europe/Berlin: 09:03:53

So is there a more standard or even out of the box way to achieve the same result? Thanks for your help.

A: Since you print the same date twice, only rendered differently (different time zone), it's probably just a presentation (MVC View) issue, and as such it should not be solved in the Model. Instead, you could do something like this is the template:
<#import "/lib/utils.ftl" as u>
...
UTC Time: ${u.utcTime(date)}

Localized time for timezone ${currentTimeZone}: ${date?time}

utcTime should be defined inside utils.ftl like <#assign u = "com.something.freemarker.UtcTimeMethod"?new()>, where com.something.freemarker.UtcTimeMethod is a TemplateMethodModelEx implementation. There are other ways of doing this, like u is maybe a shared variable defined in the FreeMarker configuration, etc. The point is, that you need to print the UTC time doesn't affect the model.
As of the <#setting time_zone=currentTimeZone> part (note that there's no need for ${...} there), surely it depends on the web application framework, but the nice solution would be if you set the time zone (like based on the visitor's locale) before the template is called. FreeMarker supports that, via Template.createProcessingEnvironment (see JavaDoc), but maybe Spring MVC doesn't.
Also, a Date object always store the date-time in UTC. You don't need to set the time zone for that with -D.

A: No, that looks good.  I don't recommend relying on user.timezone for your string formatting, since eventually someone will start your webapp with the wrong timezone; instead, you can use
DateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss");
formatter.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));

Incidentally, have you seen CodeReview?  This question is equally appropriate for both sites, given then way you've phrased it.

A: You can override FreeMarkerView like that
public static class YourFreemarkerView extends FreeMarkerView {
    @Override
    protected void processTemplate(Template template, SimpleHash model, HttpServletResponse response)
            throws IOException, TemplateException {

        HttpRequestHashModel httpRequestHashModel = (HttpRequestHashModel)model.get(FreemarkerServlet.KEY_REQUEST);

        Environment env = template.createProcessingEnvironment(model, response.getWriter(), null);
        env.setLocale(RequestContextUtils.getLocale(httpRequestHashModel.getRequest()));
        env.setTimeZone(RequestContextUtils.getTimeZone(httpRequestHashModel.getRequest()));
        env.process();

    }
}
