India beat Australia by 8-wickets in second Test, level series 1-1
Melbourne: India thumped Australia by eight wickets in the second Test on the fourth day to level the four-match series 1-1, here on Tuesday.
Chasing a mere 70 to win, India overhauled to target in 15.5 overs with more than four sessions to spare.
India had lost the pink-ball Test in Adelaide.
Skipper Ajinkya Rahane (27 not out) and opener Shubhman Gill (35 not out) took the side past the finish line after India lost Mayank Agarwal (5) and Cheteshwar Pujara (3).
India had wrapped up Australia's second innings for 200 in the extended opening session on Tuesday morning after the hosts began at 133 for six.
India had taken a 131-run lead on the third day with skipper Ajinkya Rahane (112) and Ravindra Jadeja (57) taking the hosts to 326 in reply to Australia's first innings total of 195.
Number six Cameron Green was top-scorer for the hosts with his 45-run knock while make-shift opener Matthew Wade made 40.
Green and Pat Cummins (22) added 57 runs for the seventh wicket with the pitch offering nothing to the bowlers. The partnership was broken only after the new ball was taken.
For India, debutant pacer Mohammed Siraj (3/37) took three wickets while Jasprit Bumrah (2/54) and Ravindra Jadeja (2/28) and Ravichandran Ashwin (2/71) took two wickets apiece.

Medical Alert Company Bay Alarm Medical to Offer Vial of Life Kit to New Customers
Kit stores your critical medical history for use by emergency responders.
It just makes sense to provide our customers with a way of talking to emergency personnel if they themselves are unable to.
Pacheco, CA (PRWEB) September 18, 2012
Bay Alarm Medical, a leading provider of senior medical alert systems, today announced that it has begun offering the Vial of Life emergency medical to its new customers, absolutely free. The ground-breaking Vial of Life allows seniors to record critical medical information in advance and store it in a safe place for use by emergency personnel.
"We're very pleased to be offering the Vial of Life, free of charge, to all of our new customers," says Alan Wu, marketing manager for Bay Alarm Medical. "Given what we do, it just makes sense to provide our customers with a way of talking to emergency personnel if they themselves are unable to."
Bay Alarm Medical offers one-button medical alert systems for seniors, together with around-the-clock monitoring by professionally-trained emergency operators. In the event of a medical emergency, operators contact family members, friends, neighbors and, if necessary, local 911 emergency services.
"If we do need to send emergency care to a your home, the information in the Vial of Life could be critical," says Wu. "You may not be able to speak and tell the EMTs about your medications or past medical history."
Data shows that a timely response to a medical emergency has a dramatic impact on the patient's prospects for long-term recovery. The Vial of Life helps emergency service providers understand a senior's condition and provide the right kind of care as quickly as possible.
The Vial of Life (or Vial of L.I.F.E. - Lifesaving Information For Emergencies) asks its users to fill out a brief form listing their medical history, medications, insurance information, emergency contact and other information. The form is then placed in a Vial of Life plastic baggie and attached to their refrigerator door using a magnetic strip. Users also place a Vial of Life decal on your front door so it can be seen by emergency responders.
Each new customer of Bay Alarm Medical's 24/7 medical alert monitoring will automatically receive a Vial of Life kit.
"The Vial of Life is such an easy thing to do," says Wu, "We strongly encourage our new customers to use the kit and keep it up-to-date."
Bay Alarm Medical is an arm of Bay Alarm, one of the nation's oldest alarm monitoring companies. The company offers one-button medical alert systems for seniors, together with around-the-clock monitoring by professionally trained emergency operators. In the event of a medical emergency, operators contact family members, friends, neighbors and, if necessary, local 911 emergency services. The service is available across the U.S.

Q: AWS: Access S3 from Elastic beanstalk application I have a PHP application which takes inputs from users and writes them to files using normal file operations like fopen, fwrite etc. It works well on my server. If I migrate this whole code to Amazon's Cloud and use it's services, how do I map these file operations to corresponding operations on Beanstalk?
Will the file operations work as they are, without change?If yes, where will these files be store? If no, what's the alternative?
Thanks for your help!!

A: You should consider looking into the S3 Stream Wrapper included with the official AWS SDK for PHP. Registering the stream wrapper allows you to work with the S3 using PHP's native file functions.

A: You can mount a S3 bucket as a partition and work with S3 files as they where located on your server's HDD.
I'm the lead developer and maintainer of Open source project RioFS project: an userspace filesystem to mount Amazon S3 buckets. You can use our project to mount and operate with files using PHP or any other programming language.
Hope it helps !

Who are the richest writers?
by Simon Reichley
courtesy of hotmusicfactory.com
It's awards season, and some high profile winners have already been announced: The Nobel went to Svetlana Alexeivich, Marlon James received the Man Booker, and Ta-Nehisi Coates claimed the National Book Award for nonfiction. Our very own Kate Hamer, author of The Girl in the Red Coat—from which you can read an excerpt here—was shortlisted for the Costa First Novel Award. Even Don DeLillo got in on the action with a National Book Foundation lifetime achievement award.
Enjoy it while it lasts, you titans of contemporary literature. Because we all know that there's only one short-list that matters.
Yes, weighing in at a combined net worth of $1.5 billion, the ten richest writers in the New York area, per The Observer's Rich List:
1. Candy Spelling, Net worth $600M
2. Barbara Taylor Bradford, Net worth: $300M
3. R. L. Stine, Net worth: $200M
4. Mary Higgins Clark, Net worth: $110M
5. Bill O'Reilly, Net worth: $85M
6. Tom Brokaw, Net worth: $70M
7. Suzanne Collins, Net worth: $65M
8. Wendy Williams, Net worth: $60M
9. (Tie) Carole Radziwill, Net worth: $50M
9. (Tie) Mort Walker, Net worth: $50M
Of course, not all of these authors have derived their alarming wealth from their writing alone, but several of them have: Bradford (author of 29 bestselling romance novels), R.L. Stine (Goosebumps!), Clarke (Where Are the Children, now in its 75th printing, with 211 editions listed on WorldCat), Collins (The Hunger Games) and Walker (Beetle Bailey).
The people winning all the awards this season aren't in the same league, of course (although some of those awards are worth quite a bit). Still, the boost in sales for what are already successful books will leave many of them pretty well off.
Still, for each one of them, there are tens of thousands of young writers—including not a few aspiring to publish genre stuff snooty literary award-winners would scoff at, writing at a rate that would make Barbara Taylor Bradford green with envy—all of whom would tell you it's not about the money.
Here's to them.

Sound Guy, The Most Underrated Role In Production.
'Huh, whats that annoying hissing sound?'… The sound guy is the Emile Heskey of the production team. He works hard and does not get the appreciation/recognition that he deserves when he is on the field of play.
Sound Production: This includes all the recording on set or location and is often designated to one person.
Sound Post-Production: This often involves the balancing, mixing, editing and enhancing of pre-recorded audio that has been obtained from file.
The job can be a rewarding one as sound is a critical component of bringing any production to another level. The audience can often notice bad sound very quickly, so good sound should not be considered a fluke or one-off. It is a skill that is honed through practical experience and great attention to detail.
Always remember… you don't just watch a film, you watch and listen. Audio is 50% of the film.
This one is for our sound engineers!
Introducing Swarzy Macaly – Levile's Official Presenter, KISS FM, Midnight Madness.


My experience in running a Facebook page this year has so far been very rewarding. Seeing people interact with my ice cream posts with super comments and interesting questions is proving both interesting and heartwarming. Such passion for ice cream is great to see!
Such is the interest that I feel obliged to give my increasing number of readers more and more ice cream photographs to enjoy. So one of the things I have done is to start building an ice cream sundae gallery.
As today is my friend Mary's birthday, here is one of the photographs in celebration of that. Happy Birthday Mary! This "Red Fruits Sundae" is just for you.
Containing strawberry, raspberry and blackcurrant ice cream with a red fruits coulis and a little frsh red fruit all topped with sumptuous sweet chantilly cream, this is one of the most colourful and appealling ice cream sundaes I have ever seen. I had to be quick with the camera though as my husband and son were only too keen to put it to the test. It didn't last long!
To view more just go to my Facebook ice cream gallery.

Home Canada Toronto Matthews leads Maple Leafs past Oilers 5-1
Matthews leads Maple Leafs past Oilers 5-1
EDMONTON – Auston Matthews is creeping up on the NHL's goal lead.
Matthews scored a pair of goals as the Toronto Maple Leafs won their second game in a row, defeating the plummeting Edmonton Oilers 5-1 on Tuesday.
The Toronto forward has 13 goals in his last 10 games for 20 on the season and is now just three back of Edmonton's Leon Draisaitl for tops in the league in that category.
"It was a pretty solid game other than maybe the second period," Matthews said. "I thought the first 10 minutes there they really took control of the game and we were just a little bit back on our heels. But (goalie Jack Campbell) made some unbelievable saves, not only in that period, but the whole game and we just kind of weathered the storm and then we were able to give ourselves a bit of a cushion in the third."
Wayne Simmonds, TJ Brodie and Morgan Rielly also scored for the Maple Leafs (20-8-2), who improved to 8-4-1 on the road.
"I thought our guys did a really good job of capitalizing on our chances, making good on them and I thought we played a really disciplined game defensively," said Toronto head coach Sheldon Keefe. "We responded well when we needed to. It's not a perfect game by any means but it's a good effort by our team against a team on the other side that's pushing hard and looking for a win. We did a lot tonight to make sure we made it difficult for them."
Leafs win season opener against Canadiens in front of 1st full capacity crowd since pandemic began
Colton Sceviour responded for the Oilers (16-11-0) who have lost six games in a row, including all five games of their current homestand.

"It is obviously very frustrating," Sceviour said. "It is one of those stretches that I don't remember being in in pro hockey, being that snake-bitten. At some point we are going to get out of this, and the only way is by working and playing the right way."
Edmonton once again allowed the game's first goal.
John Tavares fished the puck out of a scramble in front of the net and got it across to Matthews, who sent a shot past Oilers goalie Mikko Koskinen with 35 seconds to go in the opening frame. The power-play goal extended Matthews' point streak to 10 games.
The Oilers have allowed the first goal of the game in 15 of their last 20 games, winning all five of the games where they scored first.
Toronto added to its lead nine minutes into the second period as Simmonds battled hard in front to sweep home a rebound.
Brodie made it 3-0 with five minutes left in the middle frame when his shot deflected off a defender and into the net, his first goal of the season.
Edmonton finally got on the board with a goal on its 32nd shot five-and-a-half minutes into the third when a bad bounce ended up on Sceviour's stick and behind Toronto starter Campbell for his first of the year.
Just over a minute later, however, the Leafs responded as Rielly beat Koskinen high to the blocker side.
Toronto padded its lead with three minutes left as Matthews blasted a shot from the slot for his 20th of the season.
Both teams return to action on Thursday as the Oilers close out their six-game homestand against the Columbus Blue Jackets, while the Maple Leafs play the second game of a four-game trip in Calgary against the Flames.
Notes: The Oilers got veteran defenceman Duncan Keith back after missing the last eight games, but lost the services of former Leafs forward Zach Hyman to an undisclosed injury. Also missing from the Oilers lineup were Mike Smith (lower body), Slater Koekkoek (lower body), Kris Russell (upper body) and Ryan McLeod, who went on COVID protocol earlier in the day. Also missing due pandemic precautions was Oilers head coach Dave Tippett… Out with injuries for Toronto were Mitchell Marner (shoulder) and Rasmus Sandin (knee). Forward Ilya Mikheyev returned to Toronto's lineup, playing his first game of the season following a broken thumb, and defenceman Travis Dermott was also back, after missing four games with a shoulder injury.

Patron's Lunch celebrations bring the royal family out in full force
As the Queen's 90th birthday celebrations come to a close, the British royals stepped out for one final fete on Sunday (June 12). The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry were among the well-heeled senior royals who greeted fans on The Mall at the Patron's Lunch.
They left the palace by car and travelled to the top of the Mall before getting out to greet the crowds, shaking hands and chatting to delighted guests who had braved the rain especially for the occasion.
Kate wowed in a blue Roksanda Ilincic dress
Princes William and Harry looked dapper for the occasion in navy suits, while Kate impressed in a blue Roksanda Ilincic dress with a pink-panelled waistline.
Prince Harry chatted to fans who had lined The Mall
Joining the royal party were Prince Andrew and his daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, who left Buckingham Palace on foot and walked along the Mall, spending almost half an hour mingling with guests.
The British royals were met by rapturous applause
Meanwhile, Prince Edward and Sophie Wessex's daughter Lady Louise Windsor appeared poised as she participated in her first royal walkabout at the age of just 12, talking to guests as she walked along on her own.
Prince Andrew and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie left Buckingham Palace on foot
The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh arrived in their open topped state review vehicle, and waved to the delighted crowds as they slowly travelled along the Mall before joining the Prince William, Kate and Prince Harry on the Admiralty Arch Stage for official thanks and speeches.
The Queen and Prince Philip travelled in their open topped car
Her Majesty was resplendent in a Karl Ludwig couture coat in deep cerise with a floral silk dress and matching hat by Angela Kelly, one of her favourite designers. The Queen appeared amused to spot her daughter Princess Anne still talking to people in the crowd, saying to her: "Oh, you're still here!"
"Of course!" her daughter replied.
Zara Phillips and Mike Tindall were also in attendance
Following the speeches, the Queen and Prince Philip led the parade down the Mall and took their seats in the royal box to watch the procession reach its impressive finale.
The event has been organized by the Queen's grandson, Peter Phillips, in recognition of Her Majesty's patronage of more than 600 organisations in the UK and around the Commonwealth. Some 10,000 guests attended the festivities, many of whom were dressed in patriotic ensembles and waved Union Jack flags.

With all the attention on fellow Queenslander Jason Day's white-hot form and ascension to the number one ranking in the world of golf, Steven Bowditch has quietly qualified for his first trip the season ending Tour Championship at the historic East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta.
Bowditch enters the week ranked No. 24 (216 points) out of 30 players following last week's BMW Championship at Conway Farms in Chicago, a rough mathematical chance at best of winning the FedEx Cup and its $10 million bonus but as the only other Australian to reach this level, it's a significant achievement in its own right.
Bowditch's path to this point was highlighted by victory at the AT&T Byron Nelson in late May, his second career PGA TOUR victory to go along with the 2014 Texas Open.
He finished runner-up to Sangmoon Bae at the season-opening Fry's.com Open last October and following the Byron Nelson win, recorded four more top-15 finishes to qualify for post season action.
In a little over two weeks' time, the world number 66 will join an Australian contingent of Day, Adam Scott and Marc Leishman as he makes his Presidents Cup debut for the Internationals in Korea after being selected by Nick Price as a captain's pick.

What do specialists say? Healthy daily habits and screening are the main keys to cancer prevention.
There were an estimated 14.1 million cancer cases around the world in 2012, a number that is expected to grow to 24 million by 2035, according to the World Cancer Research Fund International. To combat this disease and following guidelines from health institutions and specialists across the globe, many people in developed countries are changing their habits.
The adoption of a healthy lifestyle can reduce up to one-third of cancer cases, decreasing related fatality rates. Overweight and smoking are pointed out as strong risk factors, with the last being responsible for 90% of lung cancer cases in the world. A diet low in fruit and vegetables, alcohol use and lack of physical activity are also behavioural contributors to mortality associated with cancer.
Screening, combined with a healthy lifestyle, is essential for cancer prevention and treatment. Early mammography screening contributes to reducing breast cancer mortality. For women aged 50 years or old, screening is a vital procedure to detect advanced cancer cases. Even though many people are aware of the importance of breast and cervical cancer screenings, there isn´t the same concern with other forms such as colorectal cancer, in which mortality is still very high.
Screening can be effective in selected cancer types when appropriate tests are used, implemented effectively, and linked to other steps in the care process. Many cancers have a high chance of cure if diagnosed early and treated adequately.
There is a growing number of people worried about cancer, who nowadays has access to a great amount of information. Aiming to promote a longer and healthier life, informed and concerned individuals are scrutinizing and adapting their diets for the sake of protection. It is already known that adopting specific habits in our daily routine can reduce the risk of a great number of conditions, cancer included. Regarding the World Cancer Day, celebrated every year on February 4th, the World Health Organization recalled the following effective tips for cancer prevention.
If you need to undergo diagnosis or treatment, you may contact us and we will make all local arrangements according to your condition and availability, ensuring that you undergo care in distinctive centres in Portugal, with medical experts and multidisciplinary teams.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that around 200 000 children and teenagers are diagnosed with cancer, though many cases may be unreported. It is one of the leading causes of death among children.
Childhood cancer is commonly used to designate cancers diagnosed in individuals below 18 years old. This international day aims to raise awareness and support to all those affected by this problems, children, teenagers, parents or other caregivers, as it places a great burden, emotional and economic to all parties involved.
In the USA, there were over 10 000 diagnosed childhood cancer cases in 2016. Nearly 90% are expected to survive. Although the survival rate has increased, it remains the leading cause of death among children in this country. In Portugal, there are around 350 cases every year and the survival rates are also high, in line with the high-income countries.
Cancer in children and teenagers tend to be different than those happening among adults. More common cancers among adults like breast, lung and colon cancer are rare among children, while leukemia represents a third of the cases among children and teenagers. There are also some tumors that only occur specifically among children, like neuroblastoma, nephroblastoma, medulloblastoma and retinoblastoma.
Genetic factors, radiation and viruses like Epstein-Barr, Hepatitis B, Human Herpes and HIV are some of the identified factors that can contribute to a higher risk of childhood cancer, but exact causes are still unknown. Common treatments include: surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy and stem cell transplant. Treatment depends on the type and the stage of cancer.
According to the WHO, nearly 80% of children living in high-income countries can expect to survive five years or longer after the cancer diagnosis. Children in such countries are followed regularly by doctors. Over 90% of deaths related to childhood cancer occur in lower-income countries.
Pediatric oncology is the specialty that deals with these cases. To learn more about pediatric consultations click here.

CITY'S LIBRARIANS TO POLICE INTERNET
LISA J. HURIASH Staff WriterSUN-SENTINEL
When you use the computer in this city, a librarian may be watching over your shoulder to make sure you're not peeking at dirty pictures.
That's how this city plans to deal with a dilemma that faces libraries throughout the country as they give their patrons Internet access: Should they limit access to sites that are sexually explicit, promote terrorism or are otherwise offensive to the general public?
City leaders figure if a librarian can notice pornography over a computer user's shoulder, so can a child. And some adults might be offended as well if they glimpse a screenful of skin.
"There should be a minimum standard that we as a community are willing to accept," said Commissioner Rosemary Sachs. "We do not offer Playboy [in the library). If we as a community are not offering that, I don't see why they should be able to come in and use our computer access to indulge in their perversions."
As Oakland Park prepares to give library patrons full Internet access, the usually polarized city commission is in full agreement that computer use needs to meet "reasonable community standards of decency."
Commissioners say they set their goals with morality in mind. They want to prevent children from looking at a Web site from the seedier side of the Internet.
They say they want to keep their small library appropriate to a small community. They just don't know what that standard is yet.
And so far, city officials have not said what would violate community standards other than sexually explicit sites.
That's not censorship, said Alicia McHugh, Oakland Park's library director.
"We're not censoring, we're providing a service beyond the service we're currently providing," she said. "There's no such thing as providing access to everything. We're not really screening anything, we're making sure others' rights to this facility are not being infringed on."
The library currently has one computer with Internet access, but a librarian types in queries.
As it expands its online capability, Oakland Park's solution is to have two computers _ one in the children's section with software that filters out pornography, and a second for adults with no filtering software.
But the second computer will be in plain view of the librarian's station, so if there is objectionable material on the screen, the librarian will ask the user to clear the screen.
"If a person comes up and is highly offended, we'll take notice," said City Manager Bonilyn Wilbanks. "It has to be in good taste. You can't be offensive to the general public."
The city is still working on a policy outlining what is objectionable and how incidents should be handled.
"I don't think they're going to define it. . . . What any normal person would consider obscene material is probably what the standards will be," said Commissioner Steve Arnst. "I don't think the city itself can [stop) anyone from viewing obscene material, but I would hope the person who was engaging in this would do the sensible and right thing and respect the librarian's request not to view that in front of anyone." Library associations and civil libertarians cringe at the idea of infringing on the free flow of information.
"This is very problematic," said Howard Simon, executive director of the regional American Civil Liberties Union. "They're commissioning a government employee to walk around and see what people [have on) their video screen.
"Do they possibly believe that empowering someone to be the mommy of adults . . . [and forcing people to) turn the computer off whenever someone gets upset, that that could be constitutional?
"The commission ought to avoid backing into a very stupid lawsuit. They need to get additional legal advice and [learn) about what the role of libraries is," Simon said. "It's the place where adults should be able to get all information whether [or not) it happens to [offend) a librarian."
Providing Internet access is a growing concern for librarians everywhere. Broward County libraries expect to offer full Internet access in March, but advisory committees are debating how to do that properly. County library officials have already said it is the responsibility of parents to control their own children.
Some public libraries, including those in Miami-Dade County, Chicago and Dallas, offer unmonitored Net access on their computers.
"We do have great respect for local communities running their own libraries," said Steven Herb, chairman of the Intellectual Freedom Committee of the American Library Association in Chicago. "But having someone sitting over your shoulder as you're reading a book . . . is at very best an uncomfortable intrusion into your privacy. There's no reason why use of the Internet should be different.
"I'm hoping they'll think hard about it."

Set-up FAQ
Is there a download manager?
No, there is not. That's one of the benefits of the site. This site uses your browser to download the files. It works with multiple browsers.
Is there Digital Rights Management (DRM) on these files?
No! These files are downloaded as MP3 files for compatibility reasons. That means that if your device plays an MP3 file, and most devices can, and has enough memory (a song is generally 4-6 MB), then you can play it. You can transfer it or burn it to a cd. You just can't do anything illegal with it.
Will the downloads work on the iPod? The iPad?
Yes. The easiest thing to do is to download the files to your desktop. Then, open your iTunes and drag the song in. Presto, there it is! Next time you synch up, you will see that song.
How do I burn music to a CD?
Put a blank CDR in your computer. If a dialog box opens up, choose burn files. Then, just drag the song file into the folder and press "burn" if you need to. If your CD drive does not automatically open, save the file to your desktop. Open your CD drive and drag and drop the file. When you click on the song, Windows Media Player, iTunes, or your music player, will open. You will find the song under "Now Playing." Double click on it and it will start playing. If you download a group of songs to your CD Drive, select all the files you want to copy and go to "File" then select "Write these files to CD."
I log in to Freegal, accept the terms and conditions, and then I'm taken to the About Us page or given a notice that I'm not authorized to view the site.
There may be a setting on your computer that is preventing you from logging in to Freegal. There are a couple things you could try that may enable you to get through.
Try clearing your browser history and deleting your browser cookies. How to clear the browser cookies and history varies from browser to browser, but typically, you can do it by opening the browser, and clicking on the Tools menu. From there it might be under a "Delete browsing history" option (if you're are using Internet Explorer) or "Clear Recent History" (if you're using Firefox). From there, you should see options specific to browser history and cookies. If you are using Internet Explorer, you may also try putting your security settings back to default. Internet Explorer setting
If you are using Internet Explorer 7 or 8, you may need to adjust how your browser treats temporary internet files. You can get to this option by following these steps:
2. Click on the Tool menu
3. Select "Internet Options"
4. In the General tab section, in the "Browsing history" area, click on the Settings button
5. In the "Temporary Internet Files and History Settings" dialog box, select the option for "Every time I visit the webpage" (by default "Automatically" is selected)
6. Click the OK button
7. Click the Apply button
8. Click OK
9. Close Internet Explorer and then re-open it and try accessing Freegal again.
Firewall setting
It's possible there's a conflict with any antivirus or firewall settings you have on your computer. If you are comfortable doing it, please try turning off your antivirus and/or firewall settings and try accessing Freegal again.
I only downloaded two songs, but when I go to download the third song, I'm told I've exceeded my limit. What happened to my third download?
It's possible you inadvertently clicked on the "Download Now" link. Anytime you click on the "Download Now" link, even if you cancel the download, a download is used from your weekly allotment. If you're confident this isn't what happened, please send us your library card information and we'll continue to troubleshoot the issue.
I downloaded a song, but I can't find where it is on my computer.
We highly recommend that when downloading a song, you select the option to save the file to a specific location on your computer. However, if you didn't specify a location or you opted to open the file without saving it, there are a couple things you can try to locate where the song was saved. If you are using Windows Media Player...
1. Open Windows Media Player
2. Click on the File menu
3. Toward the bottom of the menu, you should see a list of all recently played music
4. Click on the song file you got from Freegal, this should cause it to play

"The Sadrist Movement" and the "Coordination Framework" throw the ball of government formation into the independents' court
The leader of the "Sadrist movement" Muqtada al-Sadr concluded the forty-day deadline he granted his opponents (the coordination framework) to form the government, with a surprising tweet before the current "9 Shawwal" date. A day after the "coordinating framework" announced an initiative to solve the political impasse in the country, seven months after holding "early" elections, throwing the ball into the court of the independents to form a government, the leader of the "Sadr movement" Muqtada al-Sadr announced his plan to form a government. Next, by throwing the ball into the independents' court as well. freelancers; Those whose actual number differs due to the dispute over the concept of an independent representative, did not announce a clear position on the two initiatives of the two most important Shiite parliamentary blocs in the Iraqi parliament. However, independent MP Hussein Arbab, coordinator of the "Independent Iraq Alliance", told Asharq Al-Awsat that "independent MPs will present within two days their vision on the issue of the political blockage and the proposed initiatives." While he declined to comment on the independents' position with either initiative; It acknowledged the existence of "different views among independent representatives regarding the possibility of participating in the government and holding executive positions or not."
till then; Iraqi researcher Farhad Alaeddin, head of the Iraqi Consultative Council, identified the categories of independents in the Iraqi parliament. Aladdin said in a tweet to him on Twitter that "the responsibility lies with the independents, and they are types." Aladdin defined the levels of independents as follows: "A true and genuine independent; Their number is less than 7, and the framework independents (affiliated with the Shiite coordination framework) and their number is 10," while there are "independents affiliated with the (Rescuing the Nation) coalition (led by Muqtada al-Sadr), and their number ranges between 7 and 10, while there is an independent partisan, and these are inclined and financed by a party or Personal and their number between 24 and 30. Aladdin promised that under this status; The blockage continues.
While the "Coordination Framework" initiative stipulated that everyone sit at one dialogue table; Especially the two Shiite blocs, "The Framework" and "Al-Tayyar," while calling on the independents to choose personalities from among them to form the government. Al-Sadr cut off any path to dialogue with his opponents in the "coordination framework," calling on independent representatives to join his alliance with giving them more space to form a government. Iraqi political circles believe that the call of both the "coordinating framework" and the "Sadr movement" to bring in the independents; Each to his alliance, coming from the premise that nearly all independent representatives belong to the Shiite component; Thus, it is easier to assimilate them into either of the two masses if they are of different components. The only excluded bloc is the Kurdish "New Generation" bloc, which is led by the Kurdish opposition businessman Sashwar Abdul Wahed. While the same circles see that attempts to lure independent representatives into joining any of the two blocs will make them like an egg; On the other hand, it reflects the depth of the crisis experienced by the political process in Iraq, in addition to the Shiite house, which was divided into two conflicting alliances. Since the results of the elections that were held on October 10, 2021 and issued by 75 deputies, the Sadrist movement has been seeking to form a national majority government, while the results of its rival, the Coordination Framework, have been mixed with a significant loss of all its forces, according to the results announced by it. UNHCR. Al-Sadr's tripartite alliance, which included the Sunni "alliance of sovereignty" led by Muhammad al-Halbousi and Khamis al-Khanjar, and the "Kurdistan Democratic Party" led by Massoud Barzani, tried to form a government through its presidential candidate for the Kurdistan Democratic Party. But all the attempts of the tripartite alliance failed, and through 3 parliamentary sessions, the "coordinating framework", the "PUK" and the Sunni "determination" had what has come to be called the "blocking third". In the context of Al-Sadr's attempt to embarrass his opponents by forming a government within the 40-day period granted to them; The resort of the two Shiite parties to the independents means that both parties are unable to form a new government; This paves the way for the current government to remain in place for a longer period, while granting it exceptional powers.

Discrimination In Paris Is Burning
Paris is Burning: Social Constructs in Society
Discrimination has always been prominent in mainstream society. Judgments are quickly formed based on one's race, class, or gender. The idea that an individual's self-worth is measured by their ethnicity or sexual preference has impacted the lives of many Americans. During the early colonial period, a social hierarchy was established with white landowners at the top and African-American slaves at the bottom. As equality movements have transpired, victims of discrimination have varied. In the late 1980's when Paris is Burning was filmed, gay rights were still controversial in society. The lack of acceptance in conventional society created hardships in the lives of transgender women and gay men.…show more content…
In the late 1980s when the film was created, the LGBT community faced many stigmas. Subjects in the film spoke about the harsh treatment that they endured due to stereotypes. People in mainstream society were not fully comfortable with the idea of homosexuality due to its lack of publicity in the media. It was rare at that time to have homosexual characters on television, and many athletes and professionals did not come out due to fear of judgment. Because of this, people who were openly part of the LGBT community faced discrimination. The Harlem ball circuit allowed the subjects to embrace their sexuality and come together as minorities. The mutual bonds that the minorities shared provided a judgment-free zone to enjoy themselves and form lasting…show more content…
Just as the balls provided a home for those who are considered minorities in society, they united people of all races. One subject in the film described the concept of "throwing shade." He described that instead of using offensive slurs, they would make humorous comments to each other. Participants poked fun at each other 's style or appearance, and sometimes physically competed through voguing. Although the subjects exchanged these jestering remarks, they did not discriminate based on race or ethnicity. Balls were a place of acceptance for all and preserved that value regardless of a person's
gay people
A lot of people judge each other by a different number of things. But the most discrimination next to racism is homosexuality. The reason a lot of people think it is wrong because they think it is sick and it is not normal for other people to see homosexuals kissing or engaging in sexual intercourse. Overall Homosexuals have it hard in the U.S. but not only here but around the world, some countries or religions kill people if they are gay. What I think about that is that I think it's very wrong and people do not realize that being gay is very hard, and they can't be put in their shoes to see how it is.
Essay On Homophobia
The effect of Homophobia in men and woman Have you ever wondered why there aren't more gay characters on television or in movies? Whether gay and lesbian characters are portrayed differently than their straight counterparts? Why stories about gay and lesbians tend to revolve exclusively around their sexuality and sexual orientation? Historically, many societies have been intolerant of homosexuals, bisexual, and transgender individuals. Media has played a role in both perpetuating and resisting this state of affair.
Thirdly, the severity of homophobia has reached a point of no return, where the lives of many innocent have been viciously taken away. Lastly, many individuals choose to practice homophobia, whether it is a personal choice or not. Homophobia is the result of fear, ignorance and intolerance. History of Homophobia Homophobia is the fear of homosexuality and those who practice it (Fone, 5). Much of the negativity towards homosexuals had evolved in the nineteenth century and progressed greatly once the twentieth century and World Wars had arrived (Dadisman).
Homosexuality: Same Sex Intercourse
Homosexuality is defined as sexual activity with another of the same sex. In our culture and world today, around 1 in 6 are homosexual. People always fear, what they don't understand. This is predominantly the case when it comes to homosexuality; at first it was a taboo, judged upon by many of the population. Time and again the matter of rights for homosexuals has been raised all across the world, even today collective acceptance of gay men and women is not easy to come by.
Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, And Discrimination
When people refuse service to a homosexual couple, whether it be based on religious grounds or not, is complete discrimination towards the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) community. In recent years, it has shown that there is a great deal of discrimination in labor markets, among them being age, immigration, gender, race, but of all of them, homosexuality is the one that is ignored the most. However studies do exist of discrimination toward homosexuals, but they are mostly inaccurate and unreliable due to the results being biased since sexual orientation is not an observable trait. Field experiments for discrimination of homosexuality are limited, and difficult to obtain but Ali M. Ahmed and Mats Hammarstedt conjured up a field experiment to be performed to see if discrimination exists in the Swedish housing market. Two fictional couples were created for this experiment, one heterosexual and the other homosexual.
Argumentative Essay On Homosexuality
Homosexuality was once considered to be a mental illness it wasn't into 1973 that homosexuality was taken out the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders), this cause majority of people to be homophobic and not accept that their homosexual child, so this created a difficult relationship between parent and child. We have to accept everyone the way they are because it is their life and if we do not accept them they will struggle a lot in the society. Some homosexuals get attack in the street, and people treat them as if they were outsiders, hurt them mentally,
Discrimination In The LGBT Community
To most, sexual orientation refers only to sexual preference. However, sexual orientation not only refers to attraction— but also identities. The LGBT community not only includes homosexuals and bisexuals, but also others such as asexual and transgenders. Because these sexual orientations were vastly unpopular in the past, a prejudice against non- heterosexuals began to build over the years. This prejudice has caused the LGBT community
In fact out of many social groups like Muslims, blacks, and immigrants or foreign workers the highest social intolerance was towards gay people and astonishing 38% (thesocietypages.org). Gays and lesbians are also not allowed to serve in the army or as a policeman or woman in places like Jordan Poland Turkey United Arab and even in United States. Lesbians and gays are just like anyone else they just a different sexual preferences when it comes to their personal life. Even so, many people many countries don't give them certain rights, that a straight person would have. There are 71 countries limit the rights of gays and lesbians.
Gay Marriage Should be Legal
Since the individual chooses to be a homosexual, they should not be given special privileges. Another argument that you hear is that these couples should not get married simply because of the torment and ridicule they would be faced with in their everyday lives. There are news reports from across America telling about how a gay person was beaten or killed just because they were looked at as different. Some of these people would end up the target of verbal abuse and maybe even physical abuse, just because some heterosexual people see them as different.
The Word Homosexual: Written By Mary Laner
The word Homosexual wasn't used very nicely in the 1980's. It was a word to insult someone and to outcast them as a person not normal to society. Society didn't accept Homosexuals for who they were and how they acted. In a book written by Mary Laner, she shows how gay men were disliked and how it affected them and everybody around them. "Findings indicate that both effeminate butch-macho of personal style are disliked, and homosexuals perse are disliked more than heterosexuals." The characteristics of a homosexual are some of the things other people dislike them for.

Sorry for the hiatus...
By Jane
It's been a while since I posted, and I apologize for my absence. Basically, Dan and I hit some rough waters and I needed to take a time out from my blog (and he needed to take a time out from reading them!) for a breather. We took a mini-break to try to get in some much-needed couple time and to escape from what has seemed like the longest, gloomiest winter ever (and according to that groundhog in PA, will last another 6 weeks! sigh!). Meanwhile, we found out that we're not moving to Canada, which was a blow to Dan, but also a big relief since at least we don't have to move, what with my being pregnant and all. It's still scary, but at least we're not in limbo anymore.
So back to my lovely getaway with Dan. We had a credit on Delta that was about to expire so we decided to hop a flight to Palm Beach, Florida for a little R'n R. We stayed further north in Jupiter at the Jupiter Beach Resort and Spa. It was so quiet and peaceful.
The weather was a bit cool, but that didn't stop us from lounging by the pool (it was way too windy for the beach this time) and enjoying a Pina Colada (virgin for me!). We ate delicious meals, most at our hotel. We even had a couple's massage, which was so relaxing. One night, we drove our Chrysler 300 (a rental from Dollar, of course, but just as an aside, renting a car is an excellent way to test drive a car. I mean, when you regularly test drive you can only go on back residential roads, but when you rent, you can go on highways, etc. And to our surprise, we totally loved the 300! It was huge...but so smooth!) to West Palm Beach and drove by the famous Breakers Hotel and searched for Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort, but couldn't find it. Anyhoo, we had dinner at the Leopard Lounge at the Chesterfield Hotel, which was so swank and delicious. I was dying for a martini, but of course had to refrain. I will say this...going on vacation and not drinking was a bit of a bummer for me. But it's a temporary situation!
And of course, we had lots of romantic moments on our vacation. Our romance had dwindled in the past few months...the stress of job loss and possible move, along with the crazy change in my pregnant body. I think Dan and I started to get on each other's nerves, so this break—this babymoon, if you will—was the perfect antidote to our overly stressed lives.
But you know me...I'm going to get away one more time before the kid comes! I love vacation too much! So I'm already scraping my pennies and figuring out how to afford a vacation in April or May (tho in this economy, there's an awful lot of deals out there!). What about you? Did you go on a babymoon? Where did you go? Any suggestions?

Two bids came in, and council voted unanimously to accept the low bid of $24,268 from DePasquale Construction Services. Earl Bohn was absent.
Ken Opipery said the work cannot be done now because of the cold, but with council having given approval, it can be started when the weather breaks in the spring.

"Could-a, should-a, would-a," said 'Lopes coach Duke Johncour. "We didn't make the plays we needed."
On the last weekend in October, both the Avonworth and Northgate cross country teams competed in the WPIAL championship meet at California University of Pennsylvania.

The Psychic Vincent Sisters returned to Bellevue last Monday night for what has become an annual autumn visit to the former home of Amanda Bayne, now the Andrew Bayne Library, at the corner of Teece and North Balph avenues.

Last Saturday afternoon the Northgate Flames battled the Crusaders from Bishop Canevin, and even though the Flames came out holding the short end of the stick, they showed why football is a game that has endured for almost 150 years. Northgate lost 41 - 35, but the game was more a microcosm that magnified the struggle that small communities like Bellevue and Avalon have been up against for decades now, and how they've been determined to fight and never give up, hoping to get those communities back to the thriving towns they once were.
Bellevue Mayor Emily Marburger swears in the borough's newest police officer at last Tuesday's council meeting. Joshua M. Diven is from Coraopolis and a 2006 graduate of West Allegheny High School who attended the Allegheny County Police Academy.

Bristol City defender Aden Flint enjoyed another productive season for the Robins with nine goals in his 46 appearances.
BristolLive managed managed to track down the scout - Ken Ryder, now head of recruitment at Sheffield Wednesday - who first discovered Flint while he was winning headers up in the Midlands after hearing the talent spotter talk on Geoff Twentyman's Sound of the City show, co-hosted by Flint himself last year.
"It was quite strange. Before I was full time in football I had a very good job with a massive envelope company and I remember talking to a customer over a cup of coffee on the premises," explained Ken on how he first discovered 'Flinty'.
"But it's one of them. If I had a quid for every time I heard someone say we've got a good player. Well, this guy said I follow a team called Pinxton and we've got a big centre half. And he gave me his name and I never forgot it.
"I lived in the north east originally in Blyth and then I read in the paper that Alfreton Town had paid £3,000 for him.
"And Nicky Law, who is a good friend of mine and worked for me a little bit at Wolves when he was out of work, was manager there [around 2007] so I rang him up and he said 'he's a big lad, about 6ft6 or 6ft7' and they loaned him to Matlock and I started watching Aden.
"When Danny Wilson came into Swindon one of the first things he asked me was 'who are you looking at, who are you working on?'.
"We paid a six figure fee for Aden and I was camped out at Alfreton. The club wanted to give me a season ticket.
"Funnily enough Danny's son played for Ilkeston and when they went bust he played for Alfreton - so I told him to get up close to Aden to find out what kind of a guy Aden was and he came back with a glowing reference.
"The rest is history, as they say. I think Swindon paid about £150,000 for him. And from early watching I think he justified where he is today.
"He'd probably cost someone £7-8m if Bristol City sold him now," explains Ken.
And making the move South?
"He adapted very quickly. We loaned him back to Alfreton for a little while and then brought him in and the rest is history.
"My only surprise is that Swindon didn't get very much money for him. I think they were desperate at the time and I think they got about £475,000, but Aden's now in the £5-7m bracket.
We asked about his playing attributes back then in non-League football. Still a monster in the air and scoring goals for fun?
"To be honest I was taken by his maturity in a tough league, which was the conference at the time. He played with a lot of more experienced and older players and he wasn't frightened to shake the fist and give a rollicking out when he had to.
"Nicky Law was a tough manager and his standards were very high. And I think that benefited Aden and because Nicky played the same position when he was a pro. He just looked so mature in that Conference league.
"In the end we were proved right. He came into Swindon and he adapted straightaway. Sometimes players get a bit overawed - and they had some good players then. We had the Charlie Austins, the Matt Ritchies, David Prutton - these types of players. But Aden slotted straight in.
"But that's also a testament to the experienced players who helped to bed him in. And that's helped him to where he is today."
Character as well as physical ability then.
"Our reports said that he was dedicated in his training, he was disciplined, we knew that he would give free kicks away and get booked - as a centre half I'd be worried if he didn't.
"But I just think his all-round game for one so young and inexperienced was outstanding. In fact, Alfreton at the time thought that I was looking at another player, Tom Naylor from Derby, who everybody thought was going to be the next hot property.
"Him and Aden played centre-halves together and he's not a bad player. He went on to make a living playing. But everybody thought I was watching him."
As to how high, 'Flinty' can go now, perhaps it could be to the top tier.
"It wouldn't surprise me if he did go on and become a Premier League player. I know that other clubs have looked at him in the Championship but at the minute why would he need to leave Bristol City to go to another Championship club?" said Ken.

Great Western Railways has implemented a new policy for carrying bikes from May 2016. Bikes will now only be allowed on high speed trains if they have a booking, which should be made by 18:00h the previous day.
It seems that this new policy is in response to an increasing demand for taking bikes on trains. Perhaps GWR could consider providing more space for cycles.
The new booking policy is "in preparation" for the new trains, which will have more limited cycle space. Cycles are seen as a operating problem, causing delays in loading. All of this could be addressed in the new train design but has not been. Cyclists in Bath and Bristol have set up a petition on 38 Degrees (https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/bike-reservations-on-trains-the-beginning-of-the-end).
Thank you very much Phil for this information. This is a subject that we would value in our newsletter. Is there any way you could send us a small article about this?
Before the end of August, but the sooner the better! Thanks Phil. And please add some images if you can, makes it more interesting.


Because of its location on the south side of the Alps, this is one of the sunniest winter sport destinations in Europe. The area can be called almost entirely snow-certain, because of the many modern artificial snow blowers which have been installed during the last couple of years.
The ski resort of Val Gardena is the most famous ski resort in the Dolomites and includes about 175 km of slopes. The three largest places in the area are St. Ulrich/Ortisei, Wolkenstein/Selva di Val Gardena and Santa Cristina. Beginner or advanced, Val Gardena includes challenging slopes for all abilities. Also snowboarders don't have to get bored. There are two funparks, a halfpipe and a boardercross. Also, Val Gardena has over 130 km of cross-country ski-tracks.
One part of the famous Sella Ronda leads through Val Gardena's ski area. Via the Sella Ronda the ski area of Val Gardena is also connected directly to the area of Arabba-Marmolada (60 km of slopes with the Marmolada glacier), Alta Badia (130 km of slopes) and Val di Fassa (120 km of pistes, known a.o. because of Canazei) with a total of about 485 km connected slopes! It is highly recommended to buy the Dolimiti SuperSkipas, so you'll be able to get to know the other ski areas as well.


The advice of Tjaart van der Walt, CEO of the RealNet property group, is Get on the property ladder, but don't aim too high at first. He went on to say: "While returning consumer confidence is giving the property market a boost, full economic recovery is still a way off and we don't think 2010 will be the year to make risky commitments.
Rather, he says, those buying now should budget conservatively to ensure that they will still be able to afford their bond repayments even if interest rates rise by a few percentage points and even if their income stays the same this year.
Van der Walt says the past year has really fuelled the trend towards living more simply and carefully, which has seen most working people cut back their spending on cars, furniture, energy and fuel, restaurant meals and even groceries.
"And we believe this conservative approach should also apply to home purchases. While owning a home is one of the best ways to start building wealth, consumers need to remember that wealth is generally built over time – and will actually grow better if you're not in so much debt that you're strapped to make the payments every month.
