English language and linguistics: general interest
Language, Sexuality and Education
c.CAD$51.74 (C)

Presenting a range of data obtained from secondary schools in the UK and US, this path-breaking book explores the role played by language in constructing sexual identities. Analysing the often complex ways in which homophobia, heterosexism and heteronormativity are enacted within school contexts, it shows that by analysing language, we can discover much about how educators and students experience sexual diversity in their schools, how sexual identities are constructed through language, and how different statuses are ascribed to different sexual identities.
Addresses the timely and much-debated issue of sexual diversity in schools, which is currently undergoing many changes
Uses multiple methods of discourse analysis rather than focus on a single analytical framework, enabling a more systematic and detailed analysis of the data
Focuses on the linguistic dimensions of sexual diversity in schools, ideal for those working in applied linguistics as well as in education and sexuality studies
‘An outstanding piece of scholarship. Her meticulous, queer linguistically informed analyses of communicative practices in educational contexts reveal graphically that sexuality-related discrimination and invisibility still form harmful discourses that systematically affect learners and learning in negative ways. A seminal text for queer applied linguistics and an important addition to the field of language and sexuality studies.' Heiko Motschenbacher, Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Bergen
1. Confronting the context
2. Researching language and sexuality in educational settings
3. Using sociolinguistic frameworks to explore the school experiences of LGBT+ Yyouth
4. Educators' perspectives on language and sexual diversity in schools
5. Exploring ideologies of sexuality in curriculum documents
6. SRE classroom interaction analysis and the construction of sexual identities

Secretive Globalist Group Reignites Push for ‘United States of Europe’
• AFP only news outlet at Bilderberg-related meeting in Washington.
By Mark Anderson —
WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Bilderberg group’s Steering Committee chairman waltzed into Washington September 17 to speak to the Brookings Institution on how to keep the European Union’s (EU) member states in line while enlarging the EU toward greater “prosperity.”
AMERICAN FREE PRESS caught up with elusive jet-setter Henri de Castries, the French insurance and investment banking magnate whose committee decides who can attend the annual Bilderberg meetings and what topics the charitable chaps will cover, behind an armada of armed guards with real reporters never allowed inside, of course.
The evening’s moderator was longtime Washington Post newsman, Jimmy Lee Hoagland. He couldn’t resist lampooning those who deplore Bilderberg’s nearly 63 years of ultra-secrecy.
“If you follow the conspiracy blogs . . . Bilderberg is a secret society that runs the world,” Hoagland said with a smirk. He claimed Bilderberg is just “a lively discussion group.”
Hoagland is the guy who was hounded for years by late AFP Bilderberg sleuth Jim Tucker for never reporting about Bilderberg despite Hoagland’s own attendance and decades of attendance by top Post brass.
Brookings trustee Antoine van Agtmael, reciting de Castries’s lengthy pedigree, abruptly added, “Finally, he’s chairman of the very wellknown Bilderberg Group . . .” even though scarcely one in 10,000 Americans know that Bilderberg exists. Brookings didn’t even list de Castries’s Bilderberg chairmanship in its advance notice of his delivery of the 12th Raymond Aron Lecture at Brookings, hosted by Brookings’ Center on the United States and Europe.
De Castries was the chief speaker. He was joined by Donald Kohn, senior economic studies fellow at Brookings and a former vice chairman of the Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors. He’s now affiliated with the Bank of England—the centuries-old nerve center of worldwide Rothschild banking that undergirds Bilderberg, the Royal Institute of International Affairs and other global networks.
This meeting about keeping Europe on a treadmill of ever-more centralized rule and a pre-decided destiny toward supposed prosperity was a virtual globalist extravaganza, as Brookings President Strobe Talbot, a longtime member of the Trilateral Commission—a key Bilderberg ally—also delivered brief remarks at a lecture series which covers “current issues affecting the transatlantic relationship.”
To the discerning ear, a transatlantic future of ever-increasing complexity, coupled with an EU that may loosen the reins somewhat but won’t grant any member states a divorce from central rule, is foreseen by the world managerial class that inhabits Brookings and Bilderberg.
In essence, de Castries argued for an Americanized Europe which fits in with recent reports by this AFP writer that Bilderberg’s founding with Central Intelligence Agency money, and its early coordination with the European Movement, were based on the American system being a model for a united Europe to follow, not the other way around.
De Castries revealed some likely elements of Bilderberg’s future outlook, including:
• A new “Franco-German axis,” which he said is needed because EU governors have been trying to steer the EU as a whole—all 28 member states—which is difficult and is prompting fears that the EU bloc will break up. Creating such an axis would break down EU governance into a manageable component comprised of the union’s two most powerful nations. “We need to start with a smaller core and move [forward],” de Castries stated. His strategy included:
• Applying a strategy to reduce the likelihood of Britain leaving the EU, a prospect that Bilderberg evidently fears. Moreover, that strategy would not require altering existing European treaties.
• Taking steps toward a fiscal union (EU member states transferring their national-level taxation and budgeting powers to Brussels) and toward a banking union (more power granted to the European Central Bank, which would become more like the Federal Reserve) are still considered necessary, as AFP revealed in previous Bilderberg reports.
• Improving Europe’s security, competitiveness and education—meaning more defense spending to counter Russia and other threats; reduced public spending, reduced taxes and “entitlement” reform (much like U.S. corporate interests wanting to cut Social Security for retirees but maintain military spending); and investing more in primary education and universities to foster the idea of improved European competitiveness.
De Castries believes there is a sluggish European outlook on free-market economics due to traditional European welfare-state policies. He apparently would replace that with American style neo-liberal capitalism, which, he neglected to mention, tends to favor large corporations and banks over the middle class he professes to value.
“There will be no economic leadership if we don’t re-invent the political leadership,” de Castries added about the EU. He said he also wants the European economy to thrive on less aversion to risk-taking, greater innovation and a higher number of patents being approved.
Kohn remarked that Europe is wobbling due to recent “stress tests,” including the U.S. financial crisis of a few years ago “that bled into Europe” and the current migrant crisis. However, the Brookings speakers were careful not to acknowledge that the current migrant wave of hundreds of thousands of Muslims from Middle Eastern states (and a score of African nations) is largely the result of ongoing U.S.-NATO-UK military operations destroying the refugees’ home countries.
Expressing concern about the EU’s apparent political “instability,” Kohn recalled that the EU’s member states, as the union evolved, had to give up considerable power to central command in Brussels but still want to retain some power, which creates tension and imbalances.
He invoked a “bicycle metaphor,” meaning, “If the EU doesn’t keep moving it will fall down.” He even admitted that the monetary union (the Eurozone is 19 of the 28 EU states) is not altogether sustainable—unless a greater economic union (with the above-noted fiscal and banking unions, under a U.S.-style capitalistic system) is pursued.
Speaking in terms of a broader, deeper Europe, de Castries stressed, “If we want to have ‘more Europe’”—with a more deeply integrated EU and more member states added to the mix—“we have to undertake the necessary economic reforms.”
Oddly, he added that man-made global warming, in his view, is a reality and if the world ever gets more than 2 degrees warmer than it is now, in terms of average global temperature, than the entire globe could become “not insurable.” That cryptic claim came from his standpoint as chairman and CEO of global insurer AXA.
Reduced to the basics, it appears that de Castries and Kohn—while arguing to sustain and expand a union of nations that each have unique histories and cherished traditions—just cannot conceive of the possibility that these nations were never meant to be merged in the first place.
Instead of more fractured formulas and grandiose schemes, the best options would be to dissolve the EU, disband Bilderberg and release Europeans from a union that’s pitched as a haven of freedom and democracy, but is a debtor’s
prison micromanaged by mattoids whose power hinges on commandeering the money supply and credit of all peoples.
AFP Roving Editor Mark Anderson is a veteran reporter who covers the annual Bilderberg meetings and is chairman of AFP’s new America First Action Committee, designed to involve AFP readers in focusing intensely on Congress to enact key changes, including monetary reform and a pullback of the warfare state. He and his wife Angie often work together on news projects.

Really Retro: Your Ultimate Guide to AnachroCon, Atlanta’s Steampunk/Alt-History Con
Posted on: Feb 21st, 2012 By: Anya99
Science fiction used to be all about the future, but in steampunk, it’s gone back to the past to create a steam-powered alternate Victorian era full of airships, goggles and rayguns where Tesla trumps Edison. If you think that steampunk is just about creative costumes, there will be plenty walking the halls of AnachroCon, this weekend (Feb. 24-26) at the Holiday Inn Select Perimeter, but there will also be so much more from literary to art to performances. Read more about the many facets of this fast-growing subculture in our recent interview with STEAMPUNK BIBLE co-author S.J. Chambers, then head on down to AnachroCon to experience the city’s biggest annual steampunk gathering live.
As Anachrocon’s Website says, it’s the “place in the South for Steampunk, History, Alternate History, Science, Music, Classic Sci-Fi Literature and the most amazing costuming you’ve ever seen!” Here’s our top nine coolest things to do at Anachrocon. For times and locations, check the full con schedule here.
Mad Sonictist Veronique Chevalier.
1. Costumes Extraordinaire
Men in top hats, boots and goggles. Ladies in their finest Victorian dresses with rayguns tucked into their beaded evening bags. Gizmos galore. In the case of steampunk, accessories make the outfit and it’s not just a look but a way of life for some followers who meticulously craft their eccentric wardrobes in home workshops. Expect to see an amazing array of hall costumes, but the best of the best compete in the Costume Contest at 5 p.m. on Saturday. Or learn to make your own from award-winning costumers in the Fashion and Fabrication programming tracks.
Frenchy & the Punk.
2. A Marvelous Menagerie of Musical Acts
If steampunk has a look, thanks to a motley menagerie of talented musicians, it also has a sound – a diverse blend of jazz, ragtime, gypsy, classical, goth and even a touch of rock n roll. At Anachrocon, you can hear some of the best in the region and nation including The Hellblinki Sextet (do we need to say more than pirate cabaret to pique your interest?!), The Extraordinary Contraptions, Frenchy and the Punk, Aeronauts, The Ghosts Project, The Gin Rebellion, The Vauxhall Garden Variety Players, Play It With Moxie and more. Dance the night away to several DJs including “self-described eccentric audio arranger and morally ambiguous scientist” Dr. Q, the mad mastermind behind The Artifice Club which stages quarterly steampunk shindigs and is the official sponsor of the Friday night main entertainment track provocatively titled Fallout Frenzy. Read an interview with Dr. Q here about The Artifice Club here.

3. Trick or Tease: Burly-Q and Carnivale Steampunk-style
Burlesque arose out of vaudeville and sideshow hoochie-coo, all of which go back to the bawdy dancers, singers and comedians of the Victorian music hall. Circuses and carnival sideshows for general public pleasure also came of age in the 19th century. See steampunk versions of both this weekend. Award-winning Atlanta burlesque beauty Talloolah Love invites you to Burlesque At the End of the World (Fri. midnight) featuring flavors of Bertolt Brecht, The Muppets, and Hollywood heresy; “you’ve never seen a burlesque show like this!” Guest stars include Knoxville’s Rosey Lady, the Blooming Beauty of Burlesque; Katherine Lashe of Syrens of the South Productions; The Chameleon Queen; and Sadie Hawkins and Barbilicious of Blast-Off Burlesque. Meanwhile under the motto of “Doing the extrordinary with the ordinary,” the talented performers of Oklahoma’s Carnival Epsilon (Fri. 5 p.m.) test the limits the human body can be pushed to with sharp blades, burning fire and a silver fork. And Wicked Hips Bellydance, a professional troupe with members from the US and Europe, presents an art form once considered so risque that it would have inspired proper Victorian ladies to grasp their smelling salts (Sat. 7 p.m., Sun. noon).
4. History, Science and the End of the World, Oh My!
Nikola Tesla.
Yes, the whole idea of steampunk is based on an alternate history and a different direction in science and energy. Costumes are not mandatory to attend these bonafide actual history and science with fascinating panels on such topics as “the history of passive-resistance and non-violent protest” (Fri. 3 p.m.); “evolution of small arms” (Fri. 5 p.m.), “Sex in Classical Greece and Rome” (Fri. 11 p.m.), Van Gogh at Remy (Sat. 5 p.m.) and much more including culinary discussions, Vikings, shipwrecks and a Sunday-morning gnostic mass. Well, with the Mayan calendar’s abrupt end this year, we give them some slack for a few more apocalyptic (and maybe not so hard-factual) programs such as “This is the Way the World Ends; Eschatology 101″ (Fri. 2 p.m.), “Mayan Calendar 2012″ (if the world’s coming to an end, it only makes sense there’s also a mead-making 101 class out by the pool at the same time), and “Surviving Those Pesky Zombie Apocalypses” (Sat 8 p.m.). Does that mean we’ll see some Walking Dead Steampunks drunk on mead? Well, we can only hope.
The Traveling Revelers.
5. A Little Etiquette & Indulgence Can Do You Good
The Victorian Age was known for being prim and proper, unlike our uncouth contemporary era, so it seems only fitting that AnachroCon’s newest last-minute programming track is centered on Etiquette & Indulgence. Run by Peter Beer Slayer and Richard Carnival, “their mission [is] to make the world a better place by providing instruction on the Social Graces and how to truly enjoy life by using their combined powers to become the Traveling Revelers!” Take ConSociology classes on “how to meet people at cons” (Fri. 3 p.m.); “the zen of flirting” (Fri. 7 p.m.); “the art of social cues, green lights/red lights” (Sat. noon),and enjoy a “morning refresher” course (ok, early afternoon, Sun. 1 p.m.). Or engage in proper Tea Dueling at 11 a.m. Sun. morning.
Bill Pacer as Benjamin Franklin.
6. Viva the Revolution – Meet the Founding Fathers
Tea Partiers and Ultra-Liberals, take note! OK, AnachroCon isn’t breaking out the Ouija Board (well, not right now anyway; we kind of think there has to be some Ouija-ing going on somewhere), but professional Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin impersonators (J.D. Sutton and Bill Pacer) will be on hand to share their wisdom on government, electricity and even provide a Q&A. Find out what the founding fathers really thought about freedom of religion, gay rights and sleeping with French prostitutes – we dare you to ask them!
7. Astounding Alt-History Literature & Pop Culture Panels
At the end of the day, it’s sometimes forgotten that steampunk started not as an aesthetic movement but in the pages of books and now is a lively literary genre. Panels discuss classic influences from Edgar Allan Poe (Sat. 1 p.m.) to a Victorian Science Fiction Roundtable (Sat. 9 p.m.) where we imagine the names Jules Verne and H.G. Wells might get a few mentions. More topics include how to write alternate history (Sat 4 p.m.), modern steampunk literature (Sat. noon) and Growing Up Steampunk (Fri. 7 p.m.). Author guests include Mark P. Donnelly, Kathryn Hinds, O.M. Grey, Emilie P. Bush, Kimberly Richardson, Alan Gilbreath and Dan Hollifield.

8. Sensational Steampunk Marketplace
Need a pair of goggles, a trusty ray gun, a corset, jewelry, custom leather items? All of these and more are available in the Vendor Room, a veritable bazaar of steampunk-related merchandise, with a little Medieval-Renaissance-Celtic thrown in for fun. Well, steampunk does share some roots in modern fantasy which is often inspired by those eras. Be sure to also visit the Artisans Room where you can buy unique, one-of-a-kind creations by jeweler Corey Frison (Labrys Creations), art prints and jewelry by Kerry Mafeo (Fantastic Visions), chainmail by Thandor (and watch him craft it before your very eyes!), the geekiest T-shirts on the planet from Aardvark Screen Printing and works by award-winning artist and illustrator Mark Helwig.
9. Steampunk Boba Fett
Do we really have to say anything else but those three words? OK, you may have seen the Elvis Stormtrooper at DragonCon but Steampunk Boba Fett has taken this helmeted STAR WARS mercenary to a new level of eccentric creativity. Dubbing himself humbly, “the galaxy’s most feared Steampunk Bounty Hunter since 1878 (Earth Time),” to see him is to be inspired! Now go home and get to work on your costume so you’ll be ready to enjoy Anachrocon this weekend!

India’s Aerospace Command: Challenges and Prospects
By IANS | Bharat Defence Kavach | Publish Date: 8/2/2013 12:00:00 AM
Kapil Kak
New Delhi: Inaugurating the Centre for Joint Warfare Studies on August 27, 2007 Army Chief JJ Singh foresaw “the Aerospace Command taking shape in a short space of time.” Later the same year, Air Chief Fali Major averred, “We are talking to the Army and the Navy for the joint use of Aerospace Command, it is going to take time”, adding, “the responsibilities of the Air Force have not only increased tremendously but the area of operations of the Force might go up to the South China Sea... and having sensors in the sky gives us a lot of strength.”Earlier that year on March 8, two months after China’s ASAT test, President APJ Abdul Kalam, stated, “I visualise the IAF of 2025 to be based on our scientific and technological competence in the development of communication satellites, high precision resource mapping satellites, missile systems...” thus foregrounding air power and space as constituting a continuum.
The concept of Aerospace Command resonated in India following the Kargil conflict, founded on the huge successes the Americans achieved in leveraging their space capabilities for prosecuting military operations in the Gulf and Kosovo campaigns with decisive outcomes. China’s thrust towards space could also be ascribed to the lessons it drew from these conflicts, and the subsequent ones in Afghanistan and Iraq. Unsurprisingly, given India’s fabled bureaucratic red tape, its Aerospace Command continues to work in progress.
The rationale for Aerospace Command is anchored in the necessity for a nodal agency to oversee and coordinate national efforts towards development of military-focussed assets in space. Their modernisation, protection, and integration with military capabilities, in myriad applications, would significantly enhance the combat potential of the Armed Forces.
Criticality of Space
There is a school of thought that development of a variety of affordable military assets, in timelines laid down by users, should have far greater traction than the organisation for their command and control. This emphasis on “capabilities” rather than “structures” is valid until the balance tilts towards the latter. For India that inflection point has arrived. A related question is: what are the tools of trade in “God’s eye-view of space, in capabilities and assets that make for their criticality in national strategy and defence. Perhaps the answer lies in the 21st Century Knowledge Age of today. With nature of war-fighting far removed from the past, and technologies driving doctrines, air and space power—‘aerospace’ power, a term first coined by the American Air Chief, Gen Thomas White in 1958—inhabits awesome capabilities.
Dedicated military space platforms store and transfer to multiple military units, information and data considered crucial for disparate forces operating across a large expanse in India’s diverse terrain. This can take place jointly or singly in a combined arms mode. Satellite based communications, surveillance and imagery on adversary’s vulnerable areas/points, navigation and precision targeting, including guidance for cruise missiles through geodesic means, serve as game changers. These greatly widen choices for the politico-military leadership, and war-fighters in the air, on ground and at sea, to attain higher levels of situational awareness, lethality and precision in weapon delivery. Decisive politico-military outcomes follow, with minimal blood-letting and fewer weapons expended.
Combination of space assets and conventional military capabilities helps eliminate prospects of surprise, and in turn, helps deter the opponent from engaging in conventional warfare. Equally importantly, space base assets facilitate delivery of ordnance through strategic platforms of higher trajectories like ballistic missiles and provide the critical missile early warning to enhance ballistic missile defences. An Aerospace Command that effectively develops, employs, and exercises command and control of space assets, serves both as “space sword” and a “space shield” in conventional as also nuclear deterrence. It would be instructive to draw upon the experience of major powers for an Indian Space Command construct.
Space Commands: Major Powers
In the United States, its Air Force (USAF) spearheaded the evolution and development of military space capabilities that eventually led to the formation of its Air Force Space Command. Operating in the higher reaches of the atmosphere with conventional aircraft (U2 and SR71) as also ICBMs, USAF was later seen as a logical choice to also head the united defence department on space. Space Commands for the Army and Navy were also established to meet their organic requirements, along with a Joint Space Command, that was later amalgamated with the US Strategic Command. But the Air Force Space Command vastly dwarfs the combined capabilities of all American military Space Commands. Recent data validates this conclusion: 86.65 percent of the military space budget and 79.35 percent of military space personnel are with the Air Force.
Russia’s Space Command is one of the four components of its Aerospace Defence Forces (Russian Air Force and Russian Space Forces merged in 2001). The other three are: Air and Missile Defence Command, Cosmonaut Launch Base and the Arsenal. The Space Command exercises command and control over three crucial military space entities: Centre for Space Surveillance, Centre for Missile Attack Warning and Centre for Testing and Control.
In contrast to the well-conceived American and Russian Space Commands, the Chinese space structure appears highly amorphous and distributive. This is despite its Air Force, having reportedly projected a case in 2004, to the Central Military Commission, on the need for an integrated Aerospace Command. As a consequence, China’s PLA-dominated military space control structure is quadric-distributive: one, the Air Force, Navy and Second Artillery project their respective operational requirements (ORs); two, PLA’s General Staff Department (GSD) develops Joint ORs for space based and counter space systems; three, PLA’s General Armaments Department (GAD) oversees acquisition of space systems, technological designs, R&D, manufacture and launches; and, four, the control of space based assets vests with the GSD and GAD, through the space-scientist dominated China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.
Aside from variations, other major powers like the UK and France, as also Israel have dedicated Military Space Commands. Turkey is expected to establish one by 2023.Japan’s Upper House passed a law in 2012 to shift space policy and budget to open the door for military space development, initially focussed on space based missile warning.
India’s Aerospace Command
Vision and Asset Development
In 2010, India’s Defence Minister AK Antony announced the formation of an Integrated Space Cell, under the aegis of HQ Integrated Defence Staff as an intermediate initiative towards the establishment of an Aerospace Command. To their credit, the three Service Chiefs had already evolved a consensus for a Joint Space Command. Meanwhile, the IAF had outlined the Defence Space Vision 2020 to harness satellite resources to significantly boost India’s defence preparedness. But only an Aerospace Command with requisite space expertise and authority can transform the space vision into tangible operational outcomes. The foremost question is what would be the objectives of such an entity, and the myriad range of issues with which it must grapple, including diverse challenges? These are briefly addressed below.
The principal consideration for military space asset planning and its overarching command and control structure is that both must be rooted in the unique Indian force use matrix, affordability, and technological expertise available indigenously and abroad. China’s space programme must justifiably represent a key factor in India’s space security planning. Integration of civil space technological capabilities with military force architecture is another vital dimension. This is because impressive capabilities developed by ISRO, over the years, have yet to be integrated seamlessly with air-, surface- and sea-based systems of the Armed Forces. Communications for network centric information sharing across multiple levels of command and control within India and for operations in the strategic neighbourhood form a key dimension. Imagery intelligence, electronics/signals intelligence, and in due course, the highly investment-hungry oceanic surveillance must form up other elements.
To meet China’s awesome challenge, the utmost need is to build up robust military satellite capabilities in coordination with ISRO, through doctrine-driven, time-sensitive and mutually-determined outcomes sought. India’s military access to space was initially restricted to procurement of imagery (1 metre spatial resolution) from the indigenous experimental TES satellite. But the military-dedicated highly-agile Cartosat-2A then offering scene-specific spot imagery with the facility of more frequent imaging of a selected area, and later RISAT-2, with Israeli X Band synthetic aperture radar, that could see through clouds and foliage were indeed a quantum leap.
To be sure, challenges abound. Many military satellites on the anvil are behind schedule.GSAT-4— long delayed due to denial of cryogenic technology by the Americans—would be the first Indian satellite to offer a Ka Band transponder. ISRO is reportedly confident of its launch by end 2013.The Naval GSAT-7 (for enhanced communication coverage in Indian Ocean) along with the Air Force and Army satellites are expected to be launched in 2014-15.IAF should also soon have access to a constellation of seven satellites for its exclusive navigation and targeting needs, along with the lion’s share of the transponder capacity in three commercial satellites. That the Aerospace Command would need to closely synergise the military Space Vision with ISRO’s decadal plan is a no brainer, as this would facilitate a phased and time bound build up of military space capacities.
Space Deterrence
Robust space systems, having the potential to neutralise adversary’s assets, help attain space deterrence. Testing influences adversary’s psychological perceptions as much as fortification of military space assets. Equally, joint military exercises that involve space support also have an impact. The ultimate form of space deterrence with maximum psychological impact is actual employment of space forces to disrupt assets, as was evidenced by the Chinese ASAT test in 2007. Further, enhanced situational awareness and ability to monitor adversary’s missile launches contribute substantially to space deterrence.
Space Asset Protection
Aerospace Command has to initiate and implement measures to secure space assets so vital for comprehensive national development, and conventional and nuclear deterrence. The objective would be to ensure own free access to space, while denying the advantage of space platforms to the adversary during conflict. Credible ‘hard kill’ and ‘soft kill’ systems—within the capabilities of ISRO and DRDO— would require to be developed. Likewise, national technological capabilities would be needed to ensure successful short-notice launch of ready-to-use military satellites in crisis situations when own key military assets get disabled during a conflict situation
Dedicated Military Space Cadre
India’s Aerospace Command would need to redress the limitations in strategic military space orientation and techno-operational expertise at all military leadership levels. The absence of a military space cadre could turn into a serious shortcoming given that international relations, security, air and space power today constitute one continuum. The instance of code of conduct for space on its militarisation and weaponisation is a case in point. Need exists for the early establishment of a nucleus of a military space operational-technological training centre, which could eventually turn into a national level military space institution.
Interaction between the military space planning entities and groves of academe requires to be strengthened. The example of the USAF Space Command signing a Memorandum of Understanding in 2004 with a consortium of Universities which will support the Command’s educational and research needs, and develop a future space cadre for it is worthy of emulation. Such an arrangement with an Indian University could be configured to suit India’s military space expertise need over the coming decades.
Concluding Words
Early establishment of Aerospace Command offers enormous prospects to leverage space for comprehensive national development and serve as “space sword” and “space shield” for conventional and nuclear deterrence. Military satellite based assets for space situational awareness; communications, surveillance and imagery; navigation and precision targeting inclusive of ballistic and cruise missiles; and, missile warning for ballistic missile defences serve as game changers in military force application. Space Command models of major powers could be gainfully configured to evolve a command and control architecture suited to India’s needs.
India’s Aerospace Command would, however, need to grapple with the formidable challenges of integrating civilian space capabilities with Armed Forces’ systems, successful and time-bound development of robust military space capabilities in satellites and associated ground infrastructure, protection of space based assets, establishing credible and effective space deterrence, and in creating a dedicated cadre of technological-operational military space professionals at multiple levels of military leadership.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Johnny Boychuk isn’t known for his visually appealing goals Carolina Hurricanes Hoodies Authentic , having scored just 52 times in 626 games covering 10 seasons.However, his hard drive from just inside the blue line gave New York its first lead just 11 seconds after Jordan Eberle had tied the score, and the New York Islanders rallied for a 4-3 win over the St. Louis Blues on Saturday night.“Johnny’s not the prettiest guy to watch,” Islanders coach Barry Trotz said. “But when the game’s on the line, he’s the guy that makes the hard plays. Johnny never makes soft plays. Everything he does is full out.”Anders Lee capped New York’s three-goal third period, and Matt Martin also scored to help Islanders win their season-high sixth in a row and ninth in 10 games. Robin Lehner stopped 29 shots for his seventh consecutive win.Boychuk put New York ahead 3-2 with his third goal of the season at 8:38 of the third.“We didn’t play good for two periods, we were down by one,” Boychuck said. “We just had to basically play one period the way that we should play. We did, and tonight, it was enough.”Lee pushed the lead to 4-2 with 4:56 left.The Islanders had a season-low 14 shots on goal and had just nine midway through the final period.“Good teams, they find ways to win when they’re not playing well,” Eberle said. “As a group, we’re definitely feeling confident.”Ryan O’Reilly got his eighth with 1:33 remaining to pull St. Louis within one.Brayden Schenn, Zach Sanford and Ryan O’Reilly scored for St. Louis, which has lost three of its last four.Lehner made several fine stops in the third period and protected the lead when the Blues held a 6-on-4 advantage in the final 19 seconds.The Islanders entered the final period with a 2-9 mark when trailing after two periods.“That was a big win for us,” Lehner said. “Obviously we didn’t have a great game. But we stuck with it and battled through it together. We scrambled Carolina Hurricanes Hats Authentic , we just found a way to win.”Schenn pounced on the rebound of a deflected shot by Jaden Schwartz for a 1-0 lead at 4:11 of the first.Sanford tipped in a hard drive from inside the blue line by Vince Dunn with 3:23 remaining in the opening period to make it 2-0. It was Sanford’s fifth of the season and his first since being recalled from San Antonio of the AHL on Friday.New York cut the deficit in half on a drive from the slot by Martin early in the second period. Casey Cizikas set up the goal with a perfect pass from behind the net at 2:25. Cizikas also had an assist on Boychuck’s goal.“The main thing is we just kept hanging in there,” Eberle said. “Eventually, we did some of the right things.”Blues goalie Jake Allen made 10 saves.“I’ve got to be better than that in the third period for this team,” Allen said. “I lost it for them.”St. Louis has lost five games this season after grabbing a 2-0 lead.“We had a couple breakdowns defensively, simple as that,” St. Louis defenseman Alex Pietrangelo said.NOTES: St. Louis D Joel Edmundson was a healthy scratch for the first time this season. LW Pat Maroon was also scratched… The Islanders have allowed one goal or fewer 11 times season, already three more than all of last year. … New York will play five of its next six at home. … Eberle returned the lineup after missing the last four games with an upper-body injury.UP NEXTIslanders: Host Carolina on Tuesday night.Blues: At Philadelphia on Monday night. CALGARY, Alberta (AP) — Mark Giordano has been defying his age all season.The 35-year-old defenseman had three more assists Wednesday night and the Calgary Flames kept right on rolling with a 5-3 victory over the Colorado Avalanche.“Just trying to put pucks on net, jump in when I can,” Giordano said. “Playing on a pretty good power play with pretty good players, trying to move the puck around to those guys and get it in their hands and when you do that with those types of players, they reward you.”Mikael Backlund, Mark Jankowski, Elias Lindholm and Michael Frolik scored for Calgary (28-13-4), which is 6-1-1 in its last eight games. Matthew Tkachuk added an empty-net goal for the Flames, who have a two-point lead over Vegas atop the Pacific Division.Giordano had the primary assist on Lindholm’s power-play goal that broke a 2-all tie at 12:57 of the second period and Frolik’s deflection that made it 4-2 halfway through the third.“He’s one of the best I’ve ever met. I couldn’t be happier that I have a chance to play with him Custom Carolina Hurricanes Jerseys ,” Frolik said. “He’s been unbelievable, especially this year. He’s really driving the bus on the back end now.”Johnny Gaudreau added two assists for the Flames to extend his point streak to six games.Giordano has 303 career assists, moving him past Joe Nieuwendyk into fifth on the franchise list.Nathan MacKinnon ran his point streak to eight games with a goal for Colorado (20-16-8). Erik Johnson and Mikko Rantanen also scored as the slumping Avalanche dropped to 1-6-2 in their last nine games.“We’re not finding ways to win right now, whether it’s a save at a key time or a goal at a key time,” said Gabriel Landeskog, who fired 12 shots on David Rittich — the most by an NHL player in a game this season. “We’re generating plenty of chances and we allowed only 16 shots. When you do that you’ve got to be able to win.”Rittich, sharp all night, made 32 saves to improve to 16-4-3.“He was awesome, again,” Giordano said. “It’s the timely saves that are huge, to be honest. When you’re tied or you’re up one and he’s keeping that same score line. He’s been doing it all year and again, another big night by him.”Avalanche goalie Semyon Varlamov, tested only 15 times, fell to 11-9-5.“We have to help them more,” Rantanen said, defending Colorado’s goaltending. “It’s been our problem lately. Not just the last two games www.officialblackhawksproshop.com , even before that. We score enough goals to win, but we can’t give up seven or five goals every night.”Colorado has been struggling to kill off penalties. Meanwhile, the Flames’ penalty kill had a big night, going 4 for 4 against an Avalanche team that came into the game ranked fifth with the man advantage.“Our PK, the role is to shut it down so I think we did a pretty good job of that and trying to halt their momentum,” said Jankowski, who scored his seventh goal.Frolik’s goal at 9:14 of the third, when he deflected in Giordano’s point shot, ended up the game-winner after Rantanen scored with 38 seconds remaining and the goalie pulled.Calgary got off to a fast start when Backlund buried James Neal’s rebound at 5:34. The Flames doubled their lead five minutes later on Jankowski’s seventh.But the Avalanche got back to even before the period ended.Consecutive giveaways by Rittich and Monahan resulted in the Avs getting a tic-tac-toe goal from their top line with MacKinnon completing the passing sequence with Landeskog and Rantanen.Johnson’s shot just inside the post tied it with 19 seconds left in the period, but the Avalanche came up short again.“A little bit disheartening, playing two games like that on the road back-to-back against two really good teams and coming out with nothing. Because I thought for the most part that we were really good tonight,” Colorado coach Jared Bednar said. “It feels like defensively we have to play a perfect game right now because we just aren’t getting any puck luck at the other end.”UP NEXTAvalanche: Colorado is 0-2-0 on a five-game trip to Canada that continues Saturday night in Montreal.Flames: Host the Florida Panthers on Friday night.

He Wasn't Her Real Dad, But He Did Everything He Could Do To Be One And This Is How He Was Repayed. Heartbreaking.
Where's the gratitude?
#3 The Stepdaughter's Wedding
That's a pretty harsh blow by anyone's standard. I mean come on, he's paying for the whole thing and he can't bring his own guests? That's so low. And after all, he did for that mother and daughter.Seriously, where's the gratitude? Compassion? Respect?
#2 The Big Reveal
That must have stung. I mean, you can see how much he's willing to hope beyond hope that he's a part of their family as much he believes they are a part of his. And that was the ultimate final blow. He must have been so heartbroken. I wonder what he said though....
#1 A Toast
Now, that's karma for you. Seriously the mother and daughter were so openly blatant about it, that it is utterly disgusting and heartbreaking. They deserve what they had coming. At least they could have respected his feelings, talked to him about it. But no, they just went ahead and stabbed him in the back like that.

interpret the occurrence and meaning of dreams in different ways.
Various theories have been extended from time to time to interpret this
phenomenon. Dreams are generally viewed as displays of the subconscious
and the unconscious which know everything of the past, the present and
the future and constitute an interrelation between these.
The book analyses the states of thought, the sleep cycle and
occurrence of dreams, presenting viewpoints of various religious and
cultural traditions like the tantric view, that of the Guiana Indians,
the Korean tradition, and so on. It discusses the views of scientists
and psychologists on dreams, examining the beliefs of each school -- the
Freud school, Jung school, Hall school among others -- in detail. It
classifies dreams in different ways and deals with aspects of
contemplation, emotions, and feelings in dreams. It also takes up dream
healing and numerology, explaining how one can understand the structure
of a dream and its significance and use it for achieving something in
life. It contains accounts of dreams experienced by famous personalities
in history which were closely linked to their real lives.

A multiplicity of legal advisers can result in much less efficiency and higher costs, a priority to Sir David Clementi in his critique from the English legal profession.[six]
Abogados conduct the two transactional perform and advise in reference to court docket proceedings, and they've entire ideal of audience before the courtroom. The courtroom continuing is performed with abogados, not with procuradores. In a nutshell, procuradores are court agents that work beneath the Directions of an abogado. Their practice is confined into the locality on the court docket to which They're admitted. United Kingdom[edit]
In colloquial parlance inside the Nigerian lawful profession, attorneys may Due to this be often called "litigators" or as "solicitors".
New entrants into the used bar will need to have accomplished pupillage in precisely the same way as Individuals in unbiased exercise.
The usa would not attract a distinction among attorneys as pleaders (barristers) and attorneys as brokers (or solicitors). All lawyers who may have handed a bar examination and are already admitted to apply could prosecute or defend while in the courts in the state in which They are really admitted. Traditionally, a distinction was made, in addition to a individual label for barristers (called "counselors", as a result the expression "lawyer and counselor at legislation") existed in sure states, although equally professions have long considering the fact that been fused in to the all-function attorney.
Historically, practising at the bar (or in court docket) was a far more socially prestigious occupation than Operating being a solicitor. Inside the 18th and 19th generations, the bar was one of many restricted number of professions viewed as appropriate for upper class Guys; politics, the Army and Navy, the proven clergy, as well as the civil and diplomatic providers staying the Other individuals.
n. Chiefly British A lawyer that's authorized to look and current instances at any court docket in a very jurisdiction.
The dean explained to him nose to nose that Africans lacked the innate competencies needed to become a barrister.
In Canada (besides Quebec), the professions of barrister and solicitor are fused, and many attorneys refer to by themselves with each names, although they do not practise in both of those regions.[10] In colloquial parlance within the Canadian legal job, attorneys often time period on their own as "litigators" (or "barristers"), or as "solicitors", according to the mother nature in their law apply though some may well in impact practise as both equally litigators and solicitors. Having said that, "litigators" would typically execute all litigation features traditionally performed by barristers and solicitors; in contrast, those terming themselves "solicitors" would generally limit them selves to legal get the job done not involving practice prior to the courts (not even inside of a preparatory method as carried out by solicitors in England), nevertheless some may practise in advance of chambers judges.
, "British specialists revolt as austerity hits the center class," 26 Apr. 2018 These case in point sentences are selected instantly from various on the net news resources to reflect present utilization from the term 'barrister.
In many international locations, barristers run as sole practitioners, and are prohibited from forming partnerships or from Functioning as a barrister as part of a company. (In 2009, the Clementi Report proposed the abolition of this restriction in England and Wales.
…correct to exercise like a barrister right before a court) was created conditional over the legal expertise in the applicant. Law Therefore started to emerge like a job, which demanded long term institutions and some kind of structured authorized instruction.…
Which means that solicitors are limited from doing so. In these two courts, barristers dress in the standard English way, as do the judges and other legal professionals.
Mainly because they are even further removed from the customer, barristers is usually significantly less acquainted with the client's desires.

Home Business Off the Grid
Off the Grid – Business Profile
By: Marissa Willman
Surrounded by aisles stocked with food rations, boxes of ammunition and weapons ranging from hatchets to crossbows, it’s easy to see the team at Off the Grid Survival Store won’t be taking any chances in an emergency situation.
“We don’t play games,” Off the Grid co-owner Darin Damme said.
The store stands in stark contrast to its neighboring sister store, Out of the Box Gold Store, where Damme and his co-owner Rob Riddlemoser first opened up shop in 2007.
After noticing a trend in customers buying huge amounts of silver and gold due to uncertainty about the economy and the future, Damme said opening a survival store felt like a natural fit.
“An earthquake could change everyone’s lives,” Damme said.
But don’t call him a doom and gloomer—Damme and his team at Off the Grid say they’re just being practical.
“We’re not doomsday preppers,” Damme said. “We’re just normal people who want to be prepared.”
Since Off the Grid opened its doors last December, Damme said the customer response has been overwhelmingly positive. What started as a modest inventory of emergency preparedness kits has expanded to include a variety of survival equipment such as portable solar panels, camping gear, food rations and personal protection items such as stun guns, pepper spray, hatchets and crossbows.
“This store is for everybody from weekend campers to people who want to go completely off the grid,” Damme said. “Our goal is to serve as many customers as we can.”
For those wanting to go completely off the grid, the store carries everything from military-grade packs to cans of seeds and high-calorie food bars. For the weekend survival enthusiast, Off the Grid carries sleeping bags, thermal blankets and solar panel-equipped backpacks that can charge your cell phone or laptop while you hike.
And for those looking for peace of mind in case the big one does hit, the store offers emergency preparedness kits tailored for specific environments such as the home, office or car.
According to Damme, an earthquake could be catastrophic to the valley because, on average, food has to travel about 1300 miles to reach the desert.
“There’s about three days worth of food in the Coachella Valley. If an earthquake hits and the I-10 is impassable, after three days you’re on your own,” Damme said.
He suggested keeping at least a week’s worth of food and water in case of an emergency, or purchasing a pre-made kit that includes other survival supplies such as flashlights, first aid resource and a radio.
“Having an emergency kit gives you time to assess the situation,” Damme said, rather than scavenge for supplies in a panic.
Whether you think the big one is coming or not, Damme suggests getting prepared for an emergency while you can.
“We’re 150 years overdue for an earthquake,” Damme said, adding that there’s a good chance a substantial earthquake could hit the valley in the next 30 years. “Get today what you would need the day after the emergency.”
73-185 Highway 111, Palm Desert
Open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Sidebar: Survival Essentials
Wondering what basic supplies you need for a well-rounded emergency supply kit? Off the Grid co-owner Darin Damme suggests the following four essentials to get your stockpile started:
Food: Whether you decide on canned food items or MREs, Damme recommends keeping 1-2 weeks of food on hand.
Water: You’ll need about one gallon of water per person per day in your stockpile, according to Damme. Your survival essentials should either contain a large container of clean water or the means to purify water as needed.
Communication: A solar-powered radio allows you to keep updated with the outside world. “You’re going to want to know what’s going on,” Damme said.
Protection: Damme suggests choosing a form of personal protection that you’re comfortable with, whether that be pepper spray, a firearm or a strong network of people whom you can rely on after an emergency. Whatever form of protection you choose, Damme stresses the importance of protecting your supplies. “What good are your supplies if someone’s just going to steal them from you?” Damme asked.

So in honor of my new appreciation for C2 post your story about C2:
Did you like it straight away?
Did you warm up to it?
Were you like me?
Or do you still dislike it?
Ok I think you have to be in the right mood to like C2 right away.
Which I was when I bought and listened to it for the first time.
In fact, I liked the album A LOT, and SO had the same opinion.
(I liked it more than Exciter, for example)
I didn't like all of the songs all that much right away, but most of them, yes.
The last song (for the love of God I cant remember the name right now) moved me to tears even (and Im not a crybaby).
However, I don't really listen to it very often. I do have to be in the right mood for it, but I love it anyway.
Candy says! The last song.
by acinommoni » Tue Mar 02, 2004 4:55 pm
I bought C2 one day before Martin's concert and I liked it but probably the show and live version of songs made me appreciate it.
I like most of songs and I think it's a good cover album.

Converted indeed.
I was a Dave fan way back as well, in the very beginning. Dave was the frontman and grabbed the most attention.
Also.. back then... I thought Dave wrote the lyrics (funny thought now). With time I learned more. Dave is an amazing frontman, but I've always been the type of gal who likes what's behind the scenes more and truly appreciate the music/lyrics, which is why my attention focused on the heart of Depeche- Martin Gore.
I liked C2 right away. It has so many layers to it. It is understandable that it takes time to appreciate it all. I think that C2 is far from boring if you are a listener who truly listens. The details put into the music is what I truly love. The music is so rich! Martin's voice shines so well on this album as well. Songs like "Loverman" we've never heard him do before! It's exciting to hear the demand and roughness in his voice, while still keeping that smooth Gore sound we all love. He comes through with flying colors on this album, giving us not only the wonderful music and vocals, but also the emotion. The emotion is what makes it all real. Without that emotion, none of it would move me.
To those who don't really have an opinion of C2- I suggest listening to it at night when you are relaxed, preferably with headphones. Pay attention to nothing but the album...
You'll hear it differently.

by broken120 » Wed Mar 03, 2004 2:41 pm
I have to come clean. I never gave C2 a chance. I heard it a couple times but could never get into it. But wait, before you flame me....
...I played it today and I really do like it. Can you believe it took me this long to appreciate it? I must have been in the right mindset because it was speaking to me right from track 1.
I like loverman. Is that Mart talking in the song? Well, I guess it would be.
Am I becoming a Goregirl? Maybe... I got equal love for dem boffs! But wait, I still find pre-Ultra Mart unattractive. I stand firm on that.
Or do you still dislike it? (Post a valid reason why and NO FLAMES)
I think I didn't like it before because they weren't Mart's words.
Here's the irony of the whole thing - I listened to it on the way back from the "Live Monsters" screening. I was looking for PM, couldn't find it, and gave Marty another chance. It's a beautiful thing...

oh, well...let me contribute something to this thread....uhmmm, tho' maybe you dont expect ME to post here but...things happen..
confession time:
I've always been a Gahan fan (and still am)..I fell for Dave straightway and I dont think that there's anything that could change the fact about Dave being my favorite..but there's this thing that happened with the solo projects..I sometimes hate to admit this, but I've always been an honest person and I never claim some things to be the way they arent just for the sake of something...when I first heard PM, I got to say that I actually couldnt listen to the entire album at once..I had to do some skip-songs or fast forwards because I was actually sort of disappoint from the album...I dont say I dont like it, 'coz I do and with time I sort of like it more and more...but its something different from the Dave from DM...Dave solo isnt the Dave I used to know...the songs on PM are quite simple and not full of emotions as the DM songs he used to perform...its only HIS VOICE which I still adore like I used to, but when it comes to the album..ahhh, not sooo good
then, here comes the COunterfiet....I didn't fell for it straightway, (I actually have heard some songs on the radio first, and downloaded most of them before I actually got my copy of Counterfiet)...and what can I say...that's the DM sound I love...the lyrics, the darkness, the music...Counterfiet is an album that I can listen from beginning to the end without skipping a song (except maybe "Candy Says") but all the other songs are something where I can really find myself....my favorite was probably "I cast a lonesome shadow" but ever since I heard "In my other world" I simply got addicted to it...its soooo damn beautiful...I just cant explain it...I can put it on repeat and listen to it over and over and over and over again...I can also put on repeat Loverman & In my Time of Dying & Stardust & I cast a lonesome shadow....
Loving Counterfiet more than PM wont make me a less Gaha-fan than I've been...Dave still stays the favorite-man...its just that there's something in him...dont know what are the right words for it...but something in his charisma (I guess you Gore-fans dont feel it, but I do ) and for an example, when I see them performing live (like ONIP) it's Dave who always has the main role in performing the great atmosphere for me..something in his gestures and movements and smiles and the way he is connected with the audience...I dont say that Martin isnt good on stage...I love him too, but still Dave is the GOD for me there (its only a pity that Andy is always left out from all that fun, but that's his job, anyway...behind the keboards)
uhhhh....I wanted to write something short but...uhmmm well, confessions can be really long
I think I was clear about what I said...now, this whole post is too long and I dont really feel like re-reading it in order to check my grammar/spelling mistakes...so if there are any, I am forgiven, RIGHT?

Derek Jeter Lived a Dream, and Never Disappointed
By Tyler Kepner
http://www.nytimes.com/pages/sports/index.html
February 12. 2014
The greatest compliment we can give Derek Jeter, as he prepares to leave the grandest
stage in baseball, is that he never let us down. He has made thousands of outs and
hundreds of errors and finished most of his seasons without a championship. Yet he
never disappointed us.
This is no small feat for the modern athlete, in an age of endless traps and
temptations.
From cheating to preening to taunting — even to defensible acts, like fleeing to a
new team in free agency — the hero, almost invariably, breaks our heart sometime. Not
Jeter.
He grew up beside a baseball diamond in Kalamazoo, Mich., dreaming of playing
shortstop for the Yankees, and that is what he has done. He has never played another
position, never been anything but No. 2 for the Yankees. But this season, he announced
Wednesday, will be his last.
“The one thing I always said to myself was that when baseball started to feel more
like a job, it would be time to move forward,” Jeter said in a statement on Facebook,
adding later: “I could not be more sure. I know it in my heart. The 2014 season will be
my last year playing professional baseball.”
When Jeter played his first game at the old Yankee Stadium, on June 2, 1995, the
announced crowd was 16,959. By 2008, when he closed the ballpark with a speech to
the fans, the average attendance topped 53,000. For the Yankees, Jeter was the rightplayer at the right time, a model of stability and the embodiment of their ideals.
Jeter has compiled 3,316 hits (10th on baseball’s career list), winning five
championships while making more than $250 million in salary. But his impact has
always been greater than his numbers.
When Jeter joined the organization, as a high schooler drafted sixth over all in
1992, the Yankees were enduring their fourth consecutive losing season, driven to
disarray by the principal owner, George Steinbrenner, who was suspended at the time.
Jeter would become a centerpiece of the Yankees’ rebuilding, and the team has had
only winning records since, building a new stadium and launching a lucrative cable
network in the process.
Jeter has had plenty of help, from homegrown stars like Bernie Williams and
Jorge Posada to pricey imports like Mark Teixeira and C. C. Sabathia. But Jeter, the
captain, has always been out front. When injuries limited him to 17 games last season,
the Yankees lost attendance and ratings and fell in the standings.
“I’ve gone to Yankees games and I’ve asked kids outside the park, ‘Who are you
going to go see?’ ” said Dick Groch, the scout who signed Jeter. “Nine out of 10 kids
say, ‘Derek Jeter.’
“What a marquee player.”
Groch, who now works for the Milwaukee Brewers, continued: “Remember that
word: marquee. Babe Ruth was marquee. The money Ruth brought to the Yankees was
unbelievable, and Derek Jeter’s done the same thing. You could look at tons of
statistics, but they’ll never show you that.”
Jeter is perhaps the most secure, self-confident player in baseball, a sharp
contrast to the disgraced Alex Rodriguez, whose season-long suspension means that he
will never again be teammates with Jeter. Groch said he noticed these traits while
scouting Jeter, who smiled under pressure and showed the leadership skills of a chief
executive.
His skills stood out, too, of course, and the inside-out swing that would rifle so
many hits to right field intrigued Groch. Sometimes, if a hitter punches too many balls
the opposite way, it means he cannot catch up to the fastball. Groch asked the young
Jeter if he or the pitcher was dictating the action.
Jeter replied that it was his choice. He was using his ability to wait a split-second
longer so he could react to more pitches. And when he got a letter-high fastball over
the middle, Groch said, Jeter could still pull it over the left-field wall, the way he
would for a pivotal homer in the 2000 World Series against the Mets, and for his
3,000th hit in 2011.
By then, Jeter was so accomplished that it was easy to forget his initial struggles,
his 56 errors in Class A in 1993. His defense, especially his lack of range, would remaina flash point deep into his career, with many believing he was vastly overrated in the
field. But he made himself reliable enough to stay at shortstop, and in 1994 he was the
consensus minor league player of the year. He was on his way.
Jeter was the American League rookie of the year in 1996, when the Yankees won
the World Series, and the glare never bothered him. He remains a bachelor who dates
starlets, but his rules of engagement with the news media have worked because of his
unrelenting consistency. He never answers questions about his personal life — ever —
and so is rarely even asked.
No superstar in sports is more accessible than Jeter, who is available by his locker
before and after almost every game, mainly to take pressure off teammates. Group
interviews can play out like jousting matches, which Jeter always wins. He cannot be
baited into saying something that will linger as a story. He does not raise his voice,
rarely shows irritation and never goes off the record.
Jeter is often called boring, but that is not quite right. His reverence for Yankees
history, and his place in it, is endearing. He insists on using a recording of the late Bob
Sheppard, the public-address announcer whose career began the same day as Mickey
Mantle’s, before his home at-bats.
At the old Stadium, Jeter dressed next to the empty locker of another captain,
Thurman Munson, who was killed in a plane crash in 1979. When Phil Rizzuto, his
long-ago predecessor at shortstop, died in 2007, Jeter revealed that Rizzuto’s
autograph was the only one in his collection.
Jeter asked for just one artifact from the original Stadium: the overhead sign from
the dugout runway with Joe DiMaggio’s famous quotation, thanking the Lord for
making him a Yankee.
In his retirement statement on Wednesday, Jeter began by saying thank you.
By announcing his intention, Jeter all but ensures a farewell tour with gifts at
each opposing ballpark, as Mariano Rivera experienced last season. Ceremony does
not seem to be Jeter’s style, but he said he wanted to soak in his final moments, and
who would deny him the privilege?
Last week, Groch sent an email to Jeter’s agent, Casey Close, a former minor
leaguer he also signed years ago. Groch asked Close to give his regards to Jeter and his
family, and added a plea about the captain’s exit.
“Don’t let him go out not playing shortstop,” Groch said he told Close. “Don’t let
him go out playing left field or third base. Let him go out like Mo. Let him go out the
way he deserves.”

About Mitsubishi
Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (三菱自動車工業株式会社, Mitsubishi Jidōsha Kōgyō Kabushiki Kaisha) is the sixth largest automaker in Japan and the seventeenth largest in the world by global unit sales. It is part of the Mitsubishi keiretsu, formerly the biggest industrial group in Japan, and was formed in 1970 from the automotive division of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.
Throughout its history it has courted alliances with foreign partners, a strategy pioneered by their first president Tomio Kubo to encourage expansion, and continued by his successors. A significant stake was sold to Chrysler Corporation in 1971 which it held for 22 years, while DaimlerChrysler was a controlling shareholder between 2000 and 2005. Chrysler LLC (former DaimlerChrysler) continues to do a joint-venture platform with Mitsubishi Motors on its Dodge Caliber, and Jeep Patriot and Compass. Long term joint manufacturing and technology licencing deals with the Hyundai Motor Company in South Korea and Proton in Malaysia were also forged, while in Europe the company co-owned the largest automobile manufacturing plant in the Netherlands with Volvo for ten years in the 1990s, before taking sole ownership in 2001.
Thanks to these alliances it benefitted strongly in the 1970s and '80s, increasing its annual production from 250,000 to over 1.5 million units. But its strong presence in south-east Asia meant it suffered more than most of its competitors in the aftermath of the 1997 East Asian financial crisis, and since then the company has struggled to consistently increase sales and maintain profitability.
The logo of three red diamonds, shared with over forty other companies within the keiretsu, predates Mitsubishi Motors itself by almost a century. It was chosen by Yataro Iwasaki, the founder of Mitsubishi, as it was suggestive of the emblem of the Tosa Clan who first employed him, and because his own family crest was three rhombuses stacked atop each other. The name Mitsubishi is a portmanteau of mitsu ("three") and hishi (literally, "water chestnut", often used in Japanese to denote a diamond or rhombus).

Defined as: The contract by which the insurer assumes the risk of any loss the owner or operator of a car may incur through damage to property or persons as the result of an accident. There are many specific forms of automobile insurance, varying not only in the kinds of risk that they cover but also in the legal principles underlying them.
In “plain” English, this means coverage that is carried by someone who is driving a motor vehicle that is involved in an accident that causes property damage or personal injury to someone.
Currently, New Hampshire and Wisconsin do not have “compulsory auto insurance liability laws”. Simply put, this means that these states do not require licensed drivers (and there should not be any other kind of driver) to have some type of auto insurance policy that provides at least minimum coverage. The remaining 48 states do have such insurance laws in effect.
You should check with the state you live in if you have questions concerning whether or not you are required to have auto insurance, and also to determine if you are required to have a certain amount of coverage. If you are required to have a certain amount, you will then need to check to see if there is a minimum amount and maximum amount.

Carysfort Press > Theatre Carysfort Press > Deviant Acts : Essays on Queer Performance
Edited by : David Cregan
Publication Date 20th, October, 2009
This book contains an exciting collection of essays focusing on a variety of alternative performances happening in contemporary Ireland. While it highlights the particular representations of gay and lesbian identity it also brings to light how diversity has always been a part of Irish culture and is, in fact, shaping what it means to be Irish today.
Inside there are provocative chapters from scholars, theatre producers, and theatre artists from around the world analysing everything from the drag scene in Dublin to the Gay Pride Parades in Cathleen Ni Houlihan will never be the same!
Some forty years have passed since the first openly gay character appeared on the Irish stage, sixteen years since homosexuality was decriminalised and two decades since theories of the queer have disrupted notions of normativity. But where has Irish theatre scholarship been hiding all this time? Finally we have an important collection of essays employing methodologies from literary, theatre and performance studies disciplines to queer Irish theatre and by doing so, to contest the compulsory heterosexuality of nation building. This collection proudly asserts that queerness and Irishness are conjoined at the performative hip!

Mike Dean Proudly Shows Off IV Drip After Mixing 5 Kanye West Produced Albums
Mike Dean is fueling his body after the G.O.O.D. Music takeover.
Mixing five projects in five weeks can certainly take its toll on you. With such a schedule, five weeks of sleepless nights in the studio is likely, tirelessly working away to make sure the quality is fully there. The G.O.O.D. Music team may have bitten off a little more than they could chew, promising albums from Kanye West, Kids See Ghosts, Pusha T, Nas and Teyana Taylor in a five-week period. Each project being executive produced by Yeezy, the perfectionist made sure to finish the sound of each album to his liking, leaving Mike Dean with limited time to mix and master. Ye's longtime engineer of choice, Mike Dean is feeling the results of such a gruesome month, showing off how he's recovering from the aftermath.
With K.T.S.E. now out of the way, the famed producer and engineer may finally have some time to sleep. Of course, his recovery plan includes a lot of fluids but he feels the need to get better quickly, opting for an IV drip to offset the possible effects of dehydration or exhaustion. While Dean doesn't exactly describe why he's using an IV, his caption makes it easy to assume that exhaustion could be in play. "The post 5 album recovery plan," wrote the engineer, proudly showing off the intravenous drip in use.
After such hard work on perfecting Nasir, Kids See Ghosts, Ye, Daytona, and K.T.S.E., Mike Dean deserves some major props for his contributions to G.O.O.D. Music's "surgical summer." With a possible Chance The Rapper & Kanye collaborative project coming up, Mike Dean might not have a lot of time to rest.

Stereophile has a new publisher, John B. Gourlay
Stereophile Staff | Oct 25, 1998 | 0 comments
When Petersen Publishing purchased Stereophile, Inc.'s assets on June 1 of this year (see previous story,) previous co-owners Larry Archibald and John Atkinson remained with the magazine. Whereas JA's responsibilities as Stereophile editor have remained the same as they had been, Larry Archibald's position changed considerably. He retained his masthead title of publisher (with the December issue it changes to "publisher emeritus"), but in reality, Larry has been more like "magazine spokesman and general factotum" since the purchase.

The Broken Shore - The Age Review
'It's a three on the coma scale,'' says a paramedic wheeling out an elderly victim of an attack. ''And that's out of three, not 10.'' The Broken Shore (ABC1, Sunday, 8.30pm) is full of such lines, in which the end twists the beginning, and the humour leaves twinges of pain. If you have already had your fill of reality television, this terrific, involved mystery is the antidote.
Investigating the crime, under duress at first, is Detective Joe Cashin (Don Hany), a former Melbourne homicide detective who has the limp, the spooky memories, the bottle of pills and the laconic manner that suggest his last job in the big smoke ended badly. These are the standard elements of a police procedural, but it is what this telemovie does with them that impresses.
In the small coastal town of Port Munro, Joe knows everyone. ''How's your nanna?'' he says to one teenager he picks up, and at first you think this knowledge is his strength, but it is as much a weakness. Joe knows enough to know that he does not know what he needs: every time he looks out to sea he sees the floating body of his late father.
The coastline is sparse, muscular and brooding, as is Hany, who is one of those annoying genetic bingo winners who is ridiculously good looking and talented to boot. Thankfully Claudia Karvan is present, as neighbour and former infatuation Helen, to draw out the recalcitrant Joe.
Indeed, the cast is ludicrously impressive - tip of the hat to Robyn Nevin, Tony Briggs, Anthony Hayes and more - and they make the most of Andrew Knight's adaptation of Peter Temple's 2005 crime novel. Knight also oversaw the Jack Irish TV movies, but this unfolding conspiracy, which takes 0in race relations, institutional corruption and the stains of the past, runs darker and deeper.
The director is Rowan Woods, who made one of the great Australian films, The Boys, and he leaves his mark on the material, which has a tragic timeliness to it. Most everyone and their environs in The Broken Shore is haunted. It's a nine, and that is out of 10.

The Houston Chronicle published a piece outlining the multi-site, First Methodist Church in Houston. One location is in the suburbs, whereas the other location is downtown Houston. The United Methodist Reporter outlines some of the differences between the communities:
“It will be extremely communal,” Hagans said of the smaller sessions. “It will be more about relationships and how we live our faith in day-to-day life, rather than strictly biblical. There will be ‘radical transparency’ around brokenness, without being judged or condemned.”
Added Rogers, “My background was at a church where there were things you didn’t say. If it dealt with community-related problems or issues, you just kept that stuff buried. Here, you’ll have freedom. You can get it off your chest. You won’t feel alone.”
Downtown, though, seems on the cusp of significant population growth, much of it, church leaders believe, made up of young adults.
“More and more young people are moving closer to downtown and looking for an urban worship environment,” Wende said, adding that the church also has taken steps to improve services for children and youth. “What has impressed me about this church is that the oldest members are not only paying for the changes, they are letting the young ones lead.”
The church now is expending $500,000 to refit the sixth floor of its 104-year-old building for use in the young adult programs.
The Rev. Elaine Heath, a professor at Southern Methodist University’s Perkins School of Theology, said a sense of community is important to young adults returning to city centers. “Twenty-something urbanites tend to have a stronger social conscience than their parents,” she said.
“The church that wishes to reach out to young urbanites needs to understand that they aren’t so worried about the style of worship music as they are about the authenticity of life of the people of the church,” she said. “They want the worship gathering to be meaningful and well-planned, to be sure, but they want the faith community to be a real community, actively involved in both spiritual formation and justice issues in their city and the world.”
This story weaves a number of facets of congregational life together. First, it outlines the importance of place in a broader environment — or the recognition of the ecology of the space — in determining how to approach the congregation’s goals and ministries. This congregation is intentional in recognizing what the individuals within the urban community may need, understanding that those needs are different than their site in the suburbs.
Relatedly, this congregation is cognizant of the different needs of individuals based on age, family status, and generation, and their leadership reflects the type of individuals they are attempting to attract. The young, engaged pastoral staff reflect the energized, urban population they are serving.
Finally, this story highlights the need for support in terms of resources — the building is clearly in need of some repairs, and a fledgling community may struggle to find the money for those. With the backbone of a financially strong community in the suburbs, they are able to receive material support to maintain their building — one of their largest resources.

5th (tie): Rojas Caught ‘Em Early
> Day 1: 5, 20-09 With how practice went for Rojas, he felt 20 pounds was a real possibility today, so he was pleased to hit his goal and he’s confident that he can transition away from sight-fishing tomorrow if need be and stay in contention.
“It put me in a good position for the rest of the week,” he said. “I’m glad I’m not down there where a lot of guys are. Every time we come (to New York), it’s always about ounces. You have to balance-beam every fish because that 1 ounce can make a big difference.”
He had his weight in the boat by 9 a.m. and spent the rest of the day trying to upgrade while formulating a plan of attack for Friday.
“I did some flipping and sight-fishing,” he said. “I know that it’s probably going to be won flipping so I wanted to get the sight-fish out of the way.”
He said he fished around many of the anglers in the Top 5 today so he knows there are quality fish in the area he’s focusing on. If the wind isn’t a factor tomorrow, he may try to pick off more spawning fish. Read more
Best frog fisherman? Rojas or Ish
Admitting they throw gasoline on the fire, Mark Zona and Tommy Sanders reignited the war of words on who is the best frog fisherman in the world. Zona mentioned he and Sanders both made statements on a Bassmasters show a few years back that Dean Rojas was the top angler with a frog. Not long after, Ish found Zona at an event. "Ish pulled me aside. 'I need to talk to you. Just FYI, I am,' " Zona said. "And he was not joking." Well, Rojas was just on LIVE with Dave Mercer, and was asked to respond to that. "He can say whatever he wants," Rojas said, "but I thinkn everybody knows who's No. 1." Rojas was asked, then, who falls behind him. "I'll give Ish the benefit of the doubt and give him second," he said. "Crochet, probably third." He said there's some other secret frog hammers out there. With that, the LIVE feed went right to Monroe and asked him about who's tops with a frog. "They ask every single time and they know my answer," Ish said, "so I'm not going to answer."
2016 Gander On Tour - Day Three of the Bassmaster Classic with Dean Rojas
St John's Fantasy Worth a Risk: Dean Rojas
Mid-March in Florida means two things — bed fishing and probably topwater. Dean Rojas may throw his favorite frogs around the St. Johns River and also stare down some fish that are bedding. It seemed that the first big wave of fish went to the beds in Palatka, but waves should continue to move in over the next month or so. Rojas could be deadly this week. A second-place finish here in 2014 should also sweeten the deal.
Gut tells me: Rojas
He may not win the event, but I expect him to make some noise and be in contention at some point in this event.
2016 Classic Day 3 42-11 Total
>Day 2 - Dean Rojas (7th, 42-11) – "I don't know what I would've done different – it just wasn't my Classic to win, but hopefully another one will be. I know the lake well enough that I thought I could make it through 3 days with what I found, but it's just so tough going against local anglers. Read More
