Over the past decade, global titanium dioxide industry has maintained stable development on the whole. Affected by the financial crisis, the capacity of titanium dioxide shrank around the world in 2008. However, driven by the recovery of paint, papermaking, plastic and other application industries in the downstream, titanium dioxide industry has witnessed robust growth since the end of the second quarter of 2009.
In 2010, the titanium dioxide in global market was in tight supply and the market price rocketed as well. Therefore, China's titanium dioxide began to present its price advantage in the international market and the export volume significantly increased, which led to the short supply and soaring price of titanium dioxide as well as capital increase and production expansion of titanium dioxide enterprises in China. The total output of domestic titanium dioxide hit historical record of 1,472,000 tons in 2010, up 425,000 tons compared with that in 2009, with the growth rate of 40.8%. Meanwhile, the capacity of titanium dioxide in China reached 2,300,000 tons in 2010.
Since 2010, both Chinese and world economy began to witness stability and recovery. But the recovery is not based on solid foundation and there are still a lot of uncertainties. If the world economy falls into a double-dip recession, the market price of titanium dioxide may again experience irrational fluctuations.
Shandong Dongjia: with capacity of 160,000 tons of titanium dioxide per year, the company produces more than 10 types of rutile titanium dioxide and titanium dioxide for chemical fiber including SR-235S, R-235, SR-235, SR-235 and BA01-01. In 2010, Shandong Dongjia Group produced 116,000 tons of titanium dioxide, attaining year-on-year growth of 19.65%, and achieved sales revenue of RMB 1.443 billion, up 28.34% YoY. Between 2004 and 2010, the Group ranked first in terms of both output and sales volume of titanium dioxide in China for seven consecutive years.
Henan Billions: In 2010, its export volume of titanium dioxide reached 51,900 tons, ranking first in China for three consecutive years. Billions mainly produced high value-added rutile titanium dioxide instead of anatase type in 2010.
Sichuan Lomon: the company can produce 80,000 tons of rutile titanium dioxide per year and its main products are R996 and other high-end general-grade rutile titanium dioxide. From 2007 to 2010, Sichuan Lomon had been expanding its capacity of titanium dioxide, and its output grew to 100,700 tons in 2010 from 63,800 tons in 2007, with CAGR of 16.43%.
Anhui Annada: established in March 2005, it is the largest titanium dioxide manufacturer in Anhui Province. In 2010, its output and sales volume of titanium dioxide increased by 49.0% and 37.77% respectively compared with those in 2009. Compared with its peers, Annada takes the upper hand in sulfuric acid supply, transportation, procurement price and transportation costs.
CNNC Huayuan Titanium Dioxide: the company was founded in 1989, with registered capital of RMB 190 million. It went public on Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 2007. In 2010, its output of titanium dioxide grew by 148.26% YoY, and net income rose by 107.36% YoY to RMB 10,965,900.
Pangang Group Steel Vanadium & Titanium: its current capacity is 50,000 tons per year and it produces more than 10 types of rutile and anatase titanium dioxide including R-244, R-248, R-258 and A-111. Its output of titanium dioxide accounted for 4.25% of Chinese market in 2010.

China and the United States lead the global competition to dominate artificial intelligence (AI), according to a UN study published on Thursday.
China accounted for 17 of the top 20 academic institutions involved in patenting AI and was particularly strong in the fast-growing area of "deep learning" - a machine-learning technique that includes speech recognition systems, according to the study by the UN World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
"The US and China obviously have stolen a lead. They're out in front in this area, in terms of numbers of applications, and in scientific publications," WIPO Director-General Francis Gurry told a news conference in Geneva.
The WIPO study analyzed international patent filings, scientific publications, litigation filings and acquisition activity, and found there had been as many patent applications for AI since 2013 as in the half-century since the term was coined in the 1950s.

This book contains proven steps and strategies on how to take the first steps towards building your own business empire.
How to Start a Business provides you with a week-by-week guide to establishing your business in just sixty days. You'll learn how to find a great idea for your business, how to write a business plan that will help you win over investors and financiers and the many other things that you need to do when launching your business.
Many people believe that the secret to a successful business is a perfect idea. While there is some truth to this idea, in fact virtually any idea can be successful if you feel strongly enough about it. After all, if you feel passionate about an idea, it can be so infectious that other people can feel passionate about it as well. The secret is to adjust your ideas of what constitutes success. After all, not every business has to be a McDonald's-style multi-billion business. A business that brings personal and financial satisfaction to its owner is as much of a success as the next Apple or Microsoft. And there is always the possibility for growth in the future.
In addition, if you are not passionate about your business idea, it is likely that you will not be as enthusiastic about it. Thus, you may eventually lose interest in it during the long process of starting the business and building it up. Keep in mind that it takes a lot of time and effort to establish a business; do you feel strongly enough about your idea that you will persist through this time-consuming and onerous process?
Don't waste anymore time and get started on your business today! Go buy this book now!!!


Students from University of Birmingham School are celebrating their A-level results, as they become the second cohort of young people to gain their grades at the three-year-old School.
Almost half of the School's entries hit the top grades, with 48% of entries achieving at least a B grade. Over 23% of entries were A* and A grades, and 7% of entries were A*s.
And over 20% of the 142 students who sat A-levels at the School this year achieve a minimum of AAB grades, with at least two of their passes in facilitating subjects – so-called because taking two or more of these traditional academic subjects leaves a wide range of options for university study open to students.
Many of the School's students will be heading to top universities this autumn – including 19 who will take up their places at University of Birmingham. A further 27 students have earned places at other Russell Group universities.
Six students achieved at least three straight A*s in their courses, with a further two scoring two A*s and seven achieving at least one A*.
Zaiyed Chowdhury, Amy Conroy, Simeon Conway-Jones, Rashid Faqiri and Sam Pratt all achieved three A* grades. Zaiyed is going to Birmingham to study physics, whilst Sam is going to Manchester and Rashid to Imperial College to study the same subject. Amy will be studying medicine at Leeds, and Simeon will be doing mechanical engineering at Bristol.
Principal Michael Roden, who is retiring at the end of the summer said: "I cannot think of a better way to spend my final days as Principal of this School other than seeing our dedicated young people reap the benefits of their hard work during their two years with us at University of Birmingham School. They, their families, and the staff here at School, deserve real congratulations on their results.
One of Birmingham's newest schools is celebrating its first ever set of A-level results – and the first ever cohort of its students to go onto university.
The University of Birmingham School has only been open for two years, and 51% of all entries were graded A*-B. Above 22% of all entries in this first year were graded A* or A. The proportion of the top grade of A* awarded to students at the School was 7.3%.
All of its 157 students who sat A-levels at the School this year have passed at least one.
Many of the students are now taking up their places at some of the country's top universities, including 14 heading to the University of Birmingham itself, and 45 accepting places at Russell Group institutions.
Twenty-nine students achieved a minimum of AAB grades which included at least two facilitating subjects – so-called because taking two or more of these traditional academic subjects leaves a wide range of options for university study open to students. At the University of Birmingham School, 86.5% of A-level entries are in these subjects, compared to a national figure of 51.7%.
Six students achieved at least three A*s in their courses. Two of these students are now heading to Oxford to take up their places. Jamie Fisher, who achieved 3 A*s, will be studying Physics.
Declan Grant will also go to Oxford to study Engineering after also achieving 3 A*s.
Gerard Henry, who is planning to go to the University of Warwick to study Engineering, achieved 4A*s. Oliver Page will be heading to Durham to study Natural Sciences after gaining 3 A*s and an A. And Junaid Choudhry will be taking up his place to study Dentistry at King's College London, after achieving 3 A* grades. Anupreet Singh Lohia also achieved 3 A*s. He will be studying Physics with theoretical physics at Imperial College London.
Esthel Carreon is one of the 14 students who will become a University of Birmingham student this autumn, studying Medicine, after achieving one A* and two As. Andrew Fox will also be heading to Birmingham to study Biochemistry with his grades of 2 A*s and an A. Anya Abraham will be heading to the University of Manchester to study chemical engineering after gaining an A* and 2 As.

Promising West Nile virus vaccine protects monkeys
Scientists at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) have created a promising vaccine against West Nile virus by replacing parts of a distantly related virus with proteins from the West Nile virus. The NIAID research team replaced proteins in a virus known as dengue type 4 with the corresponding West Nile virus proteins, creating a hybrid virus vaccine that protects monkeys from West Nile infection, they report in a paper to be published in the September issue of the journal Virology and currently available online.
"The Department of Health and Human Services has responded vigorously to emerging infectious diseases, including West Nile Virus, and we aim for the earliest and best possible protection for Americans," says HHS Secretary Tommy G. Thompson. "We will continue aggressive research and development steps, and we will continue to work with our public health partners toward preventing mosquito-borne disease and ensuring effective prevention and treatment."
"West Nile is one of the emerging infectious diseases for which we are developing novel preventive and therapeutic tactics," says NIAID Director Anthony S. Fauci, M.D. "Because our researchers have more than a decade of experience working with this class of virus, they could respond very quickly to the urgent public health need for a promising West Nile virus vaccine."
Human clinical trials of the vaccine are expected to begin before the end of 2003. "We're optimistic that our engineered virus vaccine will provide long-term immunity to West Nile virus, but the human clinical trials will give us the definitive data," says Brian Murphy, M.D., of the NIAID Laboratory of Infectious Diseases.
West Nile virus is spread to people by mosquitoes. It usually produces mild, flu-like symptoms but can cause a deadly encephalitis, or inflammation of the brain. The virus was first detected in the United States in 1999. Since then, it has spread rapidly from the nor

The computer users across the globe are increasing with each passing day including people of all ages and sections of society. With the increasing use of computers, need for filling online registration form for various different purposes is also increasing. The statistics reveals that 86 % of the visitors leave a website if the form which they are asked to fill is too long. Thus it is very necessary that these registration forms are optimized and easy to fill. It is also seen that number of questions that are present in the form are directly related to the rate of people who drop off without the completion of the form.
There are various factors that one should consider while creating a registration form. First of all the form should be simple and have an eye catching design as well. A form is single column is considered to be a better option as compared to the form with 2 columns.
The visually large fields are considered to be better than the small fields and the form should have a logical or a natural flow. Another important factor is the clarity and preciseness of the questions so that there is no scope for ambiguity. Device optimization and error handling are also important factors to be considered while designing a registration form.
The open ID login credentials like Twitter and Facebook improves the chances to a great extent and it is also seen that if free and unlimited access is offered it will improve the conversions by 113%. The forms that are present on the right side column of the page improve the chances by 24.6% as compared to the ones present on the left hand side.
Superfluous fields are likely to be skipped by the users thus back end processes must be used to fill in the related fields.

I played the course in early December 2022. A must when in Ushuaia. It really is the southernmost golf course on earth.
Although it was played in December (it's summer there then), snowstorms alternated with sunshine. Tierra del Fuego is also very varied in terms of climate...
The place is easy to reach by taxi.
The 9 tracks are very varied and worthwhile. While the first three lanes are rather wide and flat, lane 5 requires you to play through trees. In order to find the right tee, the pro came by and showed me the way. A stream hungry for golf balls meanders through the last lanes...
In terms of landscape, the course is very well embedded in a mountain landscape.
The rental clubs you get there are new sets, so it's not a hodgepodge.
If you write to Pro Guillermo (who has been in charge of the course for around 25 years) a few days in advance, the right golf set will be ready.
After the round you will also receive a certificate that you have played a round on the southernmost course.
After the lap, Guillermo was also helpful enough to drive me back to Ushuaia, as there was currently no taxi available.
Therefore not only 5 stars for the most extraordinary place in the world, but also 5 stars for the extremely friendly service of the pros.

Canvassing boards counted provisional ballots Thursday.
Treasure Coast elections supervisors Thursday were preparing for potential statewide recounts for U.S. Senate, governor and agriculture commissioner.
Provisional ballots were being counted in Martin, St. Lucie and Indian River counties, and canvassing boards were meeting to review them and leftover overseas ballots.
The canvassing board meetings were scheduled for 3 p.m. in St. Lucie and 5 p.m. in Martin and Indian River.
Indian River had 119 provisional ballots and Martin had 50, but it's unknown how many St. Lucie had, as elections supervisor Gertrude Walker did not reply to TCPalm's multiple requests for information.
In Martin, ballots in the potential recount races were separated and stored in the tabulation room, elections supervisor Vicki Davis said. In Indian River, officials were reviewing recount procedures, elections supervisor Leslie Rossway Swan said.
Swan, appointed in 2011, said she never has recounted multiple races, but some staffers recounted a 2008 school board race. Martin recounted a 2014 sales tax referendum. In 2012, St. Lucie recounted the U.S. House District 18 race between Patrick Murphy and Allen West. However, the county failed to return its recount results to the state on time, which forced the state to certify the election using unofficial results.
Local officials now await the Secretary of State's order regarding recounts.
As of Thursday afternoon — with statewide counts continuing and ever-changing — it appeared the Senate and agriculture commissioner races qualified for manual recounts and the governor's race qualified for a machine recount.
Also, Democrat Nikki Fried had pulled ahead of Matt Caldwell, who unofficially was declared the winner of the agriculture commissioner Tuesday night.
Noon Nov. 10: Counties must submit unofficial results to the state.
If the margin of victory in a statewide race is 0.5 percent or less, the state will order a machine recount. If the margin is 0.25 percent or less, the state will order a hand recount of ballots that showed either no vote or more than one vote cast in the race.
In a machine recount, the county duplicates any damaged ballots, rescans all ballots and compares the total number of votes cast during the recount to the initial results.
In a manual recount, canvassing boards count over-votes (more than one choice marked) and under-votes (no choice marked).
If after the recount, if the margin of victory is more than 0.25 percent, the results are considered official. If they're less, the state can order a manual recount.
3 p.m. Nov. 15: Counties must submit unofficial recount results to the state.
Noon Nov. 18: Counties must submit official results to the state.
Nov. 20: The state must certify counties' official results.

Fashion arrives at the White House
Designer to open boutique, café
Commercial Real Estate By: Murray McNeill
Posted: 04/14/2014 1:00 AM	| Last Modified: 04/14/2014 6:56 AM	| Updates	| Comments:
DAVID LIPNOWSKI / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS
Veronica Davis recently opened a fashion boutique on the main floor of the historic White House building on Portage Avenue.
A local fashion designer has set up shop in the long-vacant main-floor space of the historic White House office/retail building on downtown Portage Avenue.
Veronica Davis plans to operate a number of different concepts out of the approximately 3,000-square-foot main-floor space, including a retail boutique, a small café, and her online fashion magazine/clothing boutique business (megatrndz.com).
The retail store is already open. But the café, which will have a small outdoor patio area, isn't expected to open until July, said Jess Davis, one of the leasing agents for the 105-year-old building, who is also married to Veronica Davis.
Jess Davis, who is a commercial leasing specialist with Avison Young Commercial Real Estate (Manitoba) Inc., said he and his wife are also exploring some options for how she could use the building's 1,000-sq.-ft. mezzanine level, which is currently vacant.
"We're just in the process of finalizing what those concepts might be," he said, adding details will be released once the plans are finalized.
He said some of the concepts under consideration are also fashion-related and some are not. But they would all be suitable uses for the historic space, he added.
Veronica Davis said there are also a number of rooms on the main floor she'd like to rent out to fashion-related operators, such as a hair salon or esthetics salon.
Davis designs and produces men's, women's and children's clothing, which she markets under her own fashion label, called Vronik. Although she's been selling her products online and at fashion shows for more than a decade, this is her first bricks-and-mortar store.
While her specialty had been ready-to-wear clothing, she said she plans to switch to more upscale, haute-couture fashion items, including made-to-measure men's suits and women's and children's gowns and dresses. She thinks that would be better-suited to the building's ornate, neo-classical-style interior.
"It's a very beautiful area. It's very unique and very complementary to a fashion designer (operation)."
The building, which has also been referred to as the Oldfield, Kirby and Gardner Building and the North West Trust Building, is located on the south side of Portage just west of Fort Street.
The main floor and mezzanine space had been vacant for more than three years. The last tenant was a high-end salon. Before that it housed the Winnipeg operations of the Canadian Western Bank, which is now in the building next door.
Lots are now up for grabs in the city's newest industrial park.
Jim Kulik, an industrial leasing specialist with Colliers International, has begun marketing 75 hectares of land in the Prairie Industrial Park in southeast St. Boniface.
Located directly south of the St. Boniface Industrial Park on land once set aside for an Olywest hog-processing plant, the new development is a joint undertaking of the City of Winnipeg, which owned the land, and Terracon Development Ltd., one of the city's most active industrial developers.
Although the city has entered into joint-venture partnerships before with residential developers, this is the first one involving industrial lands, John Zabudney, manager of real estate for the city, said in an interview.
Zabudney said the timing is right, because there are only 2.4 hectares left to be developed in the 94-hectare St. Boniface Industrial Park, and that land will likely be sold before the end of this year, he added.
"We're quite excited about it (the Prairie Industrial Park development) because employment lands are coming into short supply in the city," he said. He also noted the city's other joint-venture partnerships have all produced good returns for the city.
Under the terms of the joint-venture partnership agreement, Terracon is responsible for developing and marketing the land, and it, in turn, has arranged for Colliers to handle the marketing of it.
Zabudney said the new park, which will be accessed from Mazenod Road, will be competing with business/industrial parks that have been springing up in municipalities outside the city limits but within the capital region.
Although some of those parks have been successful in luring light-industrial users away from the city, Zabudney said one advantage the Prairie Industrial Park is it will be fully serviced, with paved roads and water, sewer, hydro and natural-gas hookups.
In his marketing brochure, Kulik states the land within the park has been zoned M3 for heavy industrial uses.
That could include such things as manufacturing plants, processing plants, freight terminals, waste and salvage operations, transportation facilities and major utilities.
But he notes light industrial users and office, restaurant and hotel development will also be allowed.
The land can be purchased in parcels ranging from 0.4 to 20.2 hectares in size. Lots will be available for development by this September.
Ten lots (21.4 hectares in total) within the park can also be developed with full rail access, the brochure adds.

« Pro-life march highlights 1st abortion for rape law days before Mother's Day
Media undercover vid not scrutinized because it didn't expose Planned Parenthood »
Maryland authorities slow to act against "Gosnell-like" abortion doctor
It's a story similar to one we've heard before: an abortionist currently "under review" by the state continues to commit abortions while the medical board and abortion lobby appear undisturbed.
Recall the case of Kermit Gosnell, who ran what has been dubbed an abortion "house of horrors" in Philadelphia for years, while, despite several complaints, authorities turned a blind eye to his actions.
Now, the pro-life group Operation Rescue has reported that Harold O. Alexander, charged by the Maryland Board of Medicine in 2015 for conducting surgical abortions at an unlicensed facility, has been caught allegedly doing it again – and in response, the medical board intends to keep the complaint "on file."
Blatant disregard for the health of women is common in an industry that kills preborn children and clearly does not have the highest ethical standards. But those who are charged with oversight of these "professionals" are also at fault when they ignore reports of illegal and dangerous activity. Case in point is the way the medical board of Pennsylvania ignored Gosnell's actions. Gosnell was arrested and charged with the murder of several babies whose spines were "snipped" with scissors after birth as well as the murder of patient Karnamaya Mongar. According to the Grand Jury report, several agencies ignored his actions for years. One of those agencies was the state's medical licensing board:
Between 2002 and 2009, the grand jury learned, attorneys for the state's medical licensing board reviewed five cases against Gosnell. They closed three without investigation. The last two were investigated and closed without action -including the death of a 22-year-old whose family sued Gosnell and received a $400,000 settlement.
Between 2002 and 2009, Board of Medicine attorneys reviewed five cases involving malpractice and other complaints against Gosnell. (The Grand Jury also received records of three older complaints – from 1983, 1990, and 1992 – one of which resulted in a reprimand.) None of the assigned attorneys, or their supervisors, suggested that the Board take action against the deviant doctor. In fact, despite serious allegations, three of the cases were closed without any investigation. The other two were investigated and then closed – without any action being taken.
You may recall that Gosnell's facility was only raided after reports of illegal prescription drug activity – not because the NAF or Planned Parenthood reported his unsanitary practices to authorities – because they didn't, even though they knew.
Today, enter Maryland abortionist Harold O. Alexander.
Abortionist Harold O. Alexander (Image: screen grab from WJSA news report)
In past investigative reports, Cheryl Sullenger, Senior Policy Advisor for Operation Rescue, accused Harold O. Alexander of operating an illegal late-term abortion facility with notorious abortionist James Pendergraft. In addition, in 2013, the pro-life group reported:
[T]he Maryland Office of Health Care Quality inspected Alexander's office on Monday, October 21, 2013, and discovered that not only was Alexander's abortion business unlicensed, but he was allowing unqualified "Med Aids" to administer IV drugs and sedation in violation of Maryland Code Regulations, which requires such medications be administered only by a physician or qualified nurse anesthetist. Alexander's practices mirror those of Pennsylvania abortionist Kermit Gosnell, who was convicted earlier this year of three counts of murder and hundreds of other abortion-related crimes.
In addition, Alexander had no Registered Nurse in his employment even though Maryland Code Regulations require that an RN must be present when surgical abortions take place. Comparing the negligent actions of the Pennsylvania's licensing board with that of Maryland where abortionist Harold O. Alexander has been caught performing abortions yet again and we see glaring similarities. The most current complaint charging Alexander with "unprofessional conduct in the practice of medicine" reveals a pattern of misconduct by the abortionist.
Alexander's "patter of misconduct" appears to have continued, as the bullet points below from his most recent disciplinary actions indicate:
• August 22, 2012: Three months suspension after a consent decree alleged that Alexander failed to meet the standard of quality care of the care of his patients and that he engaged in unprofessional conduct with his patients: kissing, hugging and sexually inappropriate comments
• April 4, 2013: Suspension terminated – two years probation
• December 19, 2013: Cease and desist order from performing abortions in an unlicensed facility issued by the board after Alexander was found to be performing surgical abortions in an unlicensed facility. This resulted in a three month suspension in April of 2014 along with three years probation.
• July 2014: The disciplinary panel issued a stay in Alexander's suspension.
• July 2015: Charged with unprofessional conduct in the practice of medicine – still under review
Harold O Alexander's recent medical license disciplinary actions
Now, Operation Rescue reports that they have obtained video evidence from a pro-life activist in Maryland who filmed activity at Alexander's office, indicating that the abortionist may again be performing surgical abortions in violation of the current board order.
Following this information, an Operation Rescue staffer placed a call to Alexander's office, posing as a woman seeking an abortion at 17 weeks gestation. A man on the line identifies himself as "Dr. Alexander." The audio is below:
Operation Rescue claims that the procedure needed for an abortion at 17 weeks would indeed be a surgical abortion – the very procedure he is currently barred from performing. At 17 weeks gestation, the procedure would most likely be a D&E, described in the video below by former abortionist Dr. Anthony Levatino:
In response to the information they received, Operation Rescue filed a complaint and requested that the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, "shut down Alexander's illegal abortion operation pending the outcome of revocation proceedings." However, instead of sending inspectors to Alexander's facility to confirm the allegations, the state board issued the following response:
The Board of Physicians (the "Board") is in receipt of your complaint regarding the above-mentioned physician.
As you are aware, Dr. Alexander was charged by the Board on July 8, 2015. Based on the current pending charges and to avoid duplicative resources, your complaint will be kept on file with the Board.
Ambulance arrives at Carhart abortion clinic
Tragically, Operation Rescue reports that Alexander is not the only dangerous abortionist which the Maryland Medical Board appears to be turning a blind eye. Despite a history of documented botched abortions, including two documented abortion deaths, late term abortion doctor Leroy Carhart continues to commit abortions on his unsuspecting patients with no public disciplinary actions against him.
911 calls to Leroy Carhart abortion clinic (image screen shot off Operation Rescue website)
"With Carhart's advanced age and the increasing frequency of life-threatening abortion emergencies, it becomes obvious that competency issues must be addressed," statedOperation Rescue President Troy Newman stated after Carhart's most recent abortion emergency.
"Carhart is a proven menace that has already killed two patients and continues to pose a serious danger to woman. If the Maryland Medical Board continues to turn a blind eye to this growing danger, there is no doubt that Carhart will kill again — as he nearly did just a few days ago."
via theaustralian.com.au
In the Gosnell case, the Pennsylvania Board of Medicine finally got serious and suspended Gosnell's medical license in 2010 after federal drug agents raided Gosnell's facility. In their suspension, the board cited "an immediate and clear danger to the public health and safety." The report before the grand jury described Gosnell's abortion facility as, "filthy, with fetal remains filling a freezer and clogging drains."
Gosnell's license was finally revoked in October of 2013 and he was sentenced to life in prison after being convicted on three counts of first-degree murder for killing children outside the womb. He also received 2 1/2 to 5 years for the death of Karnamaya Mongar.
Despite the obvious negligent way authorities ignored Gosnell's conduct, the lesson has not been learned. And, in the Gosnell case as well as Alexander's and Carhart's, authorities are again slow to act.
What it will take to prompt the Maryland authorities to act, to protect both women and babies?
Operation rescue is asking you to contact the Maryland Board of Physicians to tell them to shut Carhart and Alexander down.

V7 III Stone now has stronger and more personal aesthetic connotations than its predecessor. Eclectic and essential, it foregoes any chromium parts, embracing the darkness of its matt black paintwork that goes well with the graphic dedicated only to the V7 III Stone of the saddle, fitted with a passenger grab strap. It is, however, available in other attractive, satin finish colours inspired by typical '70s shades: Nero Ruvido, Azzurro Elettrico, Verde Camouflage and Giallo Energico. The total "dark matt" look characterizes the V7 III and distinguishes it from the other versions, but that is not the only difference.
V7 III Stone is the only one of the "four-of-a-kind" to have spoked wheels and single circular display instrumentation. The front fender has also been shortened in order to highlight the essential look of this model.
Got a question about this Moto Guzzi V7 III Stone?
Lightweight aluminium mudguards, painted the same black as the V7 to complete the total black look from the first to the last centimeter.
Completely lighted, black painted aluminium side panels to complete the dark look from the first to the last centimeter.

The Tuesday, March 8th, meeting featured a presentation describing the design, construction, and operation of the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program "HAARP" Research Station located in Gakona, Alaska. Guest speaker, Steve Floyd, was the Chief RF Design Engineer for the HAARP facility for 18 years and remains an active consultant to the program. Steve is currently a Principal Systems Engineer at General Dynamics Corporation in Fairfax, Va.
The presentation focused on the engineering design, equipment manufacturing, site construction, and operational summary of this most unique broadcast facility. The HAARP Research Station is a state-of-the-art ionospheric research project located in Alaska and was jointly funded by the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). Designed and built by a Washington, DC based APTI/BAE Systems team, its purpose is to analyze the Earth's ionosphere and investigate the potential for developing ionospheric enhancement technology for radio communications and surveillance. In 2015, the HAARP program and all assets were officially transferred to the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) and the facility is scheduled to resume operations this summer (2016).
The most prominent instrument at the HAARP Research Station is the Ionospheric Research Instrument (IRI), a 180 antenna tower array, and 180 individual radio transmitter systems, operating in the high frequency (HF) band. The HAARP IRI is recognized as one of the highest powered HF transmitting systems in the world and is used to temporarily excite a limited area of the ionosphere for scientific study. Other instruments at the facility include; VHF and UHF radars, a fluxgate magnetometer, a digisonde (an ionospheric sounding device), an induction magnetometer, and low light CCD camera optics systems which were all used to study the physical processes that occur in the excited region. The HAARP facility also has its own 15 megawatt diesel engine based power generation plant, and a modern operations center.
Work on the HAARP Research Station was started in 1993 and completed in 2007. Scientific operations began in 1996 and were temporarily suspended in 2014 due to federal budget problems. The program is recognized as a highly successful research project overcoming many unique and unusual radio engineering design challenges. This presentation provided an inside view describing how the HAARP systems were designed, constructed, installed, and operated with emphasis on the unique engineering aspects of constructing this modern research facility. Examples of scientific research conducted at the facility were also be presented.
Steve Floyd is a graduate of VA Tech, a former student DJ and Chief Engineer at WUVT-FM in Blacksburg, VA, and obtained his MSEE from Johns Hopkins University. His current responsibilities are primarily involved in the design of high power SDR based radar systems, including EW and communications systems, at General Dynamics Mission Systems. Steve is also active in the broadcast industry and has a lifelong love of radio broadcasting and amateur radio.
Thanks to our friends at WTOP who hosted this meeting at their facility. A bite to eat was provided by Cavell Mertz & Associates, Inc. We discussed some Chapter 37 business about 6:45 PM and our presentation began about 7:00 PM.


For many years I've used this forum and others to fret about the decline of IT as an engine of innovation and competitive differentiation. For those of us who love the job more than the title, love to design and code systems more than plan budgets and write performance reviews, it's been painful watching hundreds of ersatz CIOs, transferred in from other departments, chop off bits and pieces of IT and throw them overboard. Sadly, most IT departments are now tasked with coordinating the installation of somebody else's software and negotiating contracts with outside companies to keep systems running on networks that are being monitored by yet another collection of third parties. For most CIOs, this voluntary and catastrophic loss of internal capability is worth the comfort of knowing that they need not worry about a shortage of IT talent and that keeping up with everybody else is simply a matter of being skilled in contract negotiations. As a result, most IT departments are now staffed by people who know how to work things but don't know how they work.
Get a few bucks in the bank and your name in a magazine or two, and solicitations for "angel" investors come at you faster than you can pretend to read them. Another prospectus arrived today, and there's a lot more wrong with this one than the fact that its covers are too far apart. The gold rush is never over, I guess. It's kept alive and kicking by rich/bored entrepreneurs who were smart enough to cash out of the dotcom rush early, poor/determined ones who weren't and the ever-hopefuls who missed the last wave completely.
