Hill County Tea Party – April 22, 2013 Always an exciting guest, opening the way for new thinking and controversial discussions, Dr. Marlene McMillan is known as the Lady of Liberty and Forgiveness. She is a home-school pioneer, mother of seven, author of multiple books. Internationally she is billed as “The Nations Expert on Principles of Liberty”. Dr. Marlene holds a Bachelor of Science from John Brown University, a Master of Divinity from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and a Doctor of Ministry with an emphasis in Church and State Relations from Tyndale Theological Seminary. Sometimes those of us in the TEA Party can be long on passion but we don’t always know how to persuade others to understand our positions. Dr. Marlene is going to teach us how to explain where liberty comes from, what it takes to maintain it and how to pass it on to the next generation. She engages audiences through simple illustrations of cause-to-effect and explanations made personally applicable to daily life and the culture. She has a passion
for dispelling erroneous beliefs and making the subject of liberty exciting. Most of her books deal with how the Bible applies to culture and how language is used to change

Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing Publication Date: 05-Jul-2012 By Rupert Edis 7:00AM BST 09 Jul 2012 The Helmand River Valley in Afghanistan, where so much British blood has been spilt, used to be richly fertile and host to a sophisticated civilisation. Then Genghis Khan conquered it, demolishing its irrigation systems and salting the ground so it would never thrive again. For centuries afterwards, its inhabitants eked out a primitive agricultural existence. Then in the Fifties and Sixties the Americans arrived, with grandiose plans to transform its economy and
society. The Kajaki dam was built, and ambitious irrigation and agricultural schemes started. Neat settlements of American contractors appeared in the landscape, complete with pools, air conditioning and the usual problems associated with expat communities. The Afghans christened the settlements “Little America”. However, incompetence by the aid workers and resistance from conservative Afghan society meant that very little was achieved, despite the expenditure of hundreds of millions of dollars. Then the Soviet invasion of 1979 put paid to American involvement there

The Historical Origins, Convergence and Interrelationship of International Human Rights Law, International Humanitarian Law, International Criminal Law and Public International Law and Their Application from at Least the Nineteenth Century University of South Africa November 20, 2008 Human Rights and International Legal Discourse, Vol. 1, 2007 Hofstra Univ. Legal Studies Research Paper No. 08-24 The emergence and scope of international law, whether in treaties or in customary international law, is especially relevant to those seeking reparations for atrocities committed against indigenous populations during colonization. This article examines the origins, interrelationship, and dimensions of international law, the law of armed conflict, international human rights law, and international criminal law. It explores the time when these legal regimes came into being and when the protections accorded by them against various types of conduct became available. It is submitted that by the turn of the twentieth century many of these laws were already available and in force. While it is commonly held that international protections against human rights violations
were activated in the post-World War II era, they actually were accessible much earlier. A specific focus of this article is the Martens Clause adopted into the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907. The Martens Clause it is argued constitutes one of the origins of international human rights law in the positivistic sense, and is considered applicable to the

Wal-Mart Reports Highlight Dangers of Payments to Foreign Officials May 23, 2012 Last month, global news outlets reported that a Mexican subsidiary of Wal-Mart had paid millions of dollars in bribes to Mexican officials for construction permits, zoning approvals, reduced environmental impact fees and the goodwill of local officials - all in an effort to expand its Mexican presence. Many of the payments in question were allegedly funneled through "gestores"- individuals (some of whom may be entirely legitimate) who assist in navigating Mexico's byzantine and inefficient bureaucracy. Payments made by the gestores to officials were described in "code" on invoices, and the Mexican subsidiary concealed their true nature from
Wal-Mart's US headquarters by characterizing them as routine legal fees. The allegations most likely to concern federal authorities, however, are the reports that senior US management rejected recommendations from internal compliance executives to conduct an independent internal investigation, and instead turned the matter over to Mexican management - some of whom had been implicated in the allegations. Not surprisingly, local management absolved itself of any wrongdoing and summarily dismissed the matter. In the wake of these reports, Wal-Mart has announced

Five years ago, Melvin Guillard’s life was a disaster – literally. Driven out of his New Orleans home by Hurricane Katrina, the mixed martial arts prospect was thinking of anything but fighting as he came to grips with his new reality. And it wasn’t going to get any easier. In 2006 his father would pass away, in 2007 he would fail a post-fight drug test after losing to Joe Stevenson, and in 2008, he spent two and a half months in jail on a parole violation. But before the ultra-talented Guillard became a cautionary tale, he turned it around, and as he approaches his Saturday bout against Jeremy Stephens, he is not only married, in a stable training environment, and far removed from the setbacks of the past, but he’s also won five of his last six and is – dare we
say it – a contender. So when you ask him how to describe the last five years, a half-decade of tragedy and triumph, he can’t seem to condense it down to a word or two. “Heartache,” he begins. “Pain, success, maturity.” “There are a lot of words I could use to describe it - growing pains, experience, perseverance.

Today's Daily Tip Sea Kelp for Silky Skin If you've ever touched seaweed that washed up on the beach, chances are you noticed its slippery texture. The gelatinous quality of this sea plant makes it an ideal ingredient for shampoos and creams, as it protects and adds shine to hair and skin. In fact, many marine plants—from tiny algae to giant kelp—provide nourishment and protection when applied to the body. "Algae are some of the most nutrient-rich life forms in nature, which is why they're present in so many cosmetics," says Ben Fuchs, cosmetic formulator for Rocky Mountain Natural Labs in Boulder, Colorado. "They're full of minerals that can help draw toxins from the skin." Knowing about marine herb properties will help you understand their purpose in body care products. In cellulite creams, algae helps draw out impurities and temporarily "tightens" the skin.
This firming ability is also an asset in eye gels or wrinkle creams. Sea herbs in facial masks heal, hydrate, detoxify, and re-mineralize the skin. While Fuchs cautions that we still don't know how much of the nutrients actually penetrate the skin, their amino acids—and slippery texture—do act

The MySQL manual states that InnoDB compression works well for read-mostly workloads. We want to use it for OLTP workloads. We improved the monitoring and performance of it to make that possible. We added monitoring to track the number of compressions and compression failures per table. This allowed us to efficiently determine how well each table compresses and decide which ones to compress in production. Another improvement was the reduction in the amount of logging performed by InnoDB. By default, the entire compressed page image is written to the transaction log whenever a page is compressed. This means that transaction logs become full sooner, log files get rotated faster and more page writes are performed by the fuzzy checkpoint IO. We eliminated this by introducing new log record types to represent compression operations that store the compression level used by InnoDB during runtime. This reduced the amount of logging by
30-40% on our workloads. In order to make sure that we did not break anything, we extended mysql's innodb_plugin test suite with crash-recovery stress tests. These stress tests later became an important part of our benchmark which we use for testing MySQL for Our main performance contribution to InnoDB compression was the implementation of an algorithm that adaptively restricts the

Whilst scrounging through a table of old magazines I stumbled across a few editions of the Australian Home Journal from the 1950′s and early 1960′s. I was immediately attracted to the covers of the magazines which are beautifully decorated with illustrations of lovely ladies dressed in the latest fashion outfits of the time. More fashion designs are illustrated inside, which back in the day, readers could get patterns of via mail order.

Duplicate namespace prefixes I have just started to work with XML and I am beginning to look at validation with DTDs and XML Schemas. I think I have grasped the need for and usage of namespaces within XML however, I am stumbling over the use of prefixes. For example, company A decides to create their own vocabulary using the URI www.companyA.co.uk/transaction/2003/version1 and rather than using this as the default namespace they prefix all their elements with trans. A few months down the line and a vast number of documents later they come across a vocabulary they wish to include within their own. However, this vocabulary also uses the namespace prefix trans. Even though the URIs are distinct the prefixes are the same. Does this cause problems when validating the XML i.e. the prefixes are identical and a prefix can only be associated with one URI at a time? Do they now need to change their prefix from trans to transcompanyA in all their XML? or more likely I am missing something when it
comes to validating XML which uses namespaces? Apologies if this question has an obvious answer, but it has been rattling around in my mind for some time. Harvey > Harvey Morcom > Knowledge Analyst > harvey.morcom@

90° RF pulse After a 90° RF pulse, net magnetization tips down so that longitudinal magnetization has disappeared and transverse magnetization has appeared. Once the RF transmitter is turned off, relaxation happens : - transverse magnetization decays - longitudinal magnetization recovers - protons re-radiate the absorbed energy Coils can receive the signal in the transverse plane due to variations of transverse magnetization vector. This signal is oscillating at resonance frequency and signal enveloppe is a decay curve described as an exponential curve.
In absence of any magnetic gradient, this signal is called Free Induction Decay (FID). FID signal decays faster than T2 would predict and decreases exponentially at characteristic time constant

Bob Ainsworth said thousands of young people in Coventry have been betrayed by the Coalition Government’s decision to scrap the Education Maintenance Allowance. The news comes as thousands of students around the country protested yesterday for the second time in as many weeks as part of a rally to demonstrate the strength of feeling against the plans for EMA and tuition fees. Introduced by Labour in 2004, the scheme was axed by Michael Gove in the Spending Review last month. This was despite promises by David Cameron and Nick Clegg before the election that the payments would be safe. 4,634 young people in Coventry depend on the payments to help with basics such as transport and books. Now the payments are being axed from next year, many could find it hard to make ends meet and choose not to continue their education. Independent studies had shown that the payments increased the number of students remaining in education who would not have done so without the financial incentive, as well as raising attainment amongst disadvantaged young people. Bob recently tabled a written Parliamentary Question asking; “How many people claimed the Education Maintenance Allowance in each year since its introduction in a) England, b) the West
Midlands and c) Coventry”. “Before the election, the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats said they would keep EMA payments – now they have betrayed young people by going back on their promises

Like Alaska's mighty Yukon, a broad river once flowed across Antarctica, following a gentle valley shaped by tectonic forces at a time before the continent became encased in ice. Understanding what happened when rivers of ice later filled the valley could solve certain climate and geologic puzzles about the southernmost continent. The valley is Lambert Graben in East Antarctica, now home to the world's largest glacier. Trapped beneath the ice, the graben (which is German for ditch or trench) is a stunning, deep gorge. But before Antarctica's deep freeze 34 million years ago, the valley was relatively flat and filled by a lazy river, leaving a riddle for geologists to decode: How did Lambert Graben get so steep, and when was it carved?

BlackBerry 10's ability to "embed an app within an app" using the Invocation Framework creates a mobile computing App World full of possibilities [ Editor's Note: This post was written by Kevin Cheung. We bumped into Kevin at BBJAM last week, and when we asked him if he was learning anything in the sessions, he passionately began talking about the invocation framework. We asked him to write it up, and he did. Thanks Kevin! ] As an educator and a developer, I am thrilled by what I saw at the JAM20 session on the invocation framework. It was no exaggeration when presenter Shadid Haque told us to buckle up before giving the invocation cards demo. In one sentence, the invocation framework can be seen as the architectural foundation
for powering the last two elements of flow, connect, and extend. Invocation comes in two flavours: invoke as application or invoke as card. The former can be thought of as simply shoving a job to another app and not worrying about what the results. The latter can be thought of as embedding another app within an app. The ability to call on other apps to perform certain

“The story is written on monuments and there are plenty of monuments to make it a good 100th edition”. Pierre Rolland can be forgiven his hyperbole when he spoke to L’Equipe at the launch of the Tour de France this week. After all, as the last man to win at Alpe D’Huez, he was understandably excited at a route that includes two ascents of the mythical alp. “I imagine the world will be there” he said. The parcours for the 2013 Tour is every inch the classic that the 100th edition deserves. It is includes some of the most iconic climbs that have played host to epic battles of years past.

Generally I really don’t like matching outfits but these dresses are so cute I thought it would look gorgeous not tacky(I hope!) Here is Elsa’s dress (Oliver & S Birthday Party Dress) minus the buttons. I am yet to buy the buttons so it is just sitting on the hanger with a few pins to keep it all in place. I loved sewing this dress but I did find the pleats challenging. I am
a bit of a perfectionist and so I undid the stitching a number of times in the pleats to get them sitting as close to perfect as I could. They are not perfect but I am happy with the result. Monday, August 24, 2009 …trace pattern. DONE!

That’s the subject of a USA Today analysis, which reveals an outrageous increase in salaries at the top levels of the federal workforce. I’ve been complaining about excessive federal pay for some time based on one set of data, and now Dennis Cauchon provides strong support for my thesis using a different set of data. Cauchon finds that since the economy fell into recession, the number of federal workers earning more than $150,000 has more than doubled. The federal government has become extremely bloated and top heavy, even as families and businesses across the nation have had to tighten their belts. With 383,000 workers earning six-figure salaries, the government has become an elite island of overcompensated administrators immune from the competitive job realities of average families. There are a remarkable 22,000 federal civilians earning salaries of over $170,000, illustrating that Big Government works for the benefit of well-off insiders, not average Americans. And Cauchon only looks at salaries and wages. Average annual federal benefits are more than $41,000, which pushes total federal compensation even further ahead of the private sector average. The Bush administration let federal pay and benefits grow completely out of control, as it did with other areas of federal spending. President Obama has an opportunity
to fix these problems. He should call for a multi-year freeze on federal pay, work to overhaul a system that moves workers up the pay scales too rapidly,

Now Variety reports that two time Academy Award nominated actor Djimon Hounsou (Blood Diamond) will play The Angel of Death. Alex Proyas (I, Robot) is directing and the movie follows Michael (Benjamin Walker), an archangel engaged in an epic battle of good and evil with Lucifer (Bradley Cooper), who mounts an army after after he is cast out of heaven. The Angel of Death turns his back on The Devil to tell God of Lucifer’s defection. The movie will be heavy on digital effects, meaning 20 weeks of pre-production are required. Only 8 weeks of actual filming will take place, followed by 72 weeks of post-production. There are said to be three epic battles in the story. One that takes place in Heaven, another in Hell, and a third in Eden. Proyas said he thinks only “an insane person would

A few weeks ago my son comes home from school and says, "Hey, the teacher said that it's OK if I bring cupcakes for my birthday." His birthday was in two days and it hadn't even crossed my mind to make cupcakes for his class. So on the way home from school we stop by the store to pick up a few things. He decided that he wanted chocolate Oreo cake cupcakes. I had made Oreo cake and chocolate cake but never chocolate Oreo cake. This would be interesting. I started by crushing 15 Oreo cookies. I put these into the batter for my chocolate cake. Bake in cupcake pan at 325 for approximately 20-25 minutes. As always I rely on the way they look or test with a toothpick to know if they are done. I piped a swirl of frosting on each cupcake with a 2D Wilton tip and stuck an
Oreo in the middle. Make sure you put the Oreos on at the latest possible time. If the Oreos are left for an extended time in the frosting they absorb the moisture from the icing and get soggy. The cupcakes turned out to be very moist and delicious. The crushed Oreo added a different spin to the chocolate cake that was very good. Here is a whole fleet of cupcakes ready to take to my son's class

By Kelly M. Semrau, Chief Sustainability Officer at SC Johnson Rather than any one event – a presidential election, the Olympic Games or the latest dance craze – the “mega-weather” of last year defined 2012. It will surely help shape this year, too. Drought, wildfires, earthquakes and hurricanes (Hurricane Sandy alone wrought $62 billion in damages and the deaths of at least 125 Americans) are
putting environmental issues atop local, national and global agendas. Yet, with the persistent pressure of economic challenges, leaders have little resources or willpower to tackle environmental issues head on. We can’t wait. In his inaugural address, President Obama asserted: “We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations.” This declaration preceded the convening of world leaders from government, business and other sectors at the annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

If you've been paying close attention you will know that I love a bit of foraging - not just in charity shops, but actual foraging of food, in the great outdoors. I've just started another blog which I'd love for you to follow too. It's early days, but spring is a-coming so expect lots of lovely recipes over the coming months. This week's finds were all forage related. I found this beautiful autumnal hinged biscuit tin, with a display of hedgerow fruits and berries. I may use it to keep my recipes, magazine cuttings and note in. Just a word of warning about cleaning old tins. I've been caught out before with over zealous cleaning of these in the past and ended up rubbing the design off. For these, Cilit Bang is not your friend. It required gentle rubbing with a soft sponge and washing up liquid. Keep the scourers away, and make sure you dry it immediately to prevent
rusting. I spotted this metal jam funnel for £1. No more burnt fingers from hot as hell jams and chutneys!! And I got 5 metal baking trays for a snip which will be

Review Somewhat bizarrely, the top-of-the-range LX9900 comes in at about the same price as LG’s "affordable" passive LD950: around £2500 for the 47in model. The design and specification of the LX9900 are on a whole different
level, though. It looks great, as it’s one of LG’s "frameless" models - the glass panel isn’t set within a plastic bezel. The whole panel is just 32mm thick, yet LG has managed to include full rear-panel LED backlighting, which produces a much brighter image than the LD950 can manage in both 2D and 3D modes, as well as crisper blacks and bolder colours. The LX9900 is also chock full of interesting goodies. The Freeview HD tuner and 400Hz

A LIVINGSTONE-BASED non-governmental organisation will train 1, 000 unemployed youths to enable them to exploit opportunities which will arise during the United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) general assembly next year. Lead Road regional manager Mubita Nalumino said his organisation had partnered with a South African organisation known as DIL to train 1,000 jobless youths to enable them to have skills. Mr Nalumino said in an interview in Livingstone that the first training that would be done at no cost would be held from December 10 to 15. "We want young people to make money for themselves and hence we will be training about 1, 000 unemployed youths so that Government can use them as volunteers or ushers or even cleaners during the UNWTO general
assembly," he said. He said his organisation was giving out unsecured loans to marketeers, farmers and other traders to sustain their living. "We've already trained some farmers in Choma and some boutique owners in Livingstone and more than K45 million has been given out to these groups. "We also provide an entrepreneurship skills training course where we train beneficiaries in financial management, marketing, customer service, loan management, and how to write business plans," he said. On Monday this week, Lead Road disbursed about K5 million to 10 Livingstone marketeers to expand their businesses

The Flexitarian Table by Peter Berley offers recipes that can please both vegetarians and carnivores, like Roasted Squash Potage with Spiced Crème Fraîche, Sautéed Escarole with Red Pepper Garlic, and Baked Fish/Ricotta Dumplings over French Lentils. 3 Servings Fish 3 Servings Dumplings This casserole is based on an all-purpose lentil recipe—when cooked until just tender, the lentils can be drained and dressed for a warm salad; when made with more broth, the recipe becomes a satisfying soup. Here the lentils form a saucy setting in which to nestle portions of fish or ricotta dumplings. Seasoned with nutmeg and Parmesan and made toothsome with bread crumbs, the dumplings are hearty and flavorful. They're a great vehicle for good ricotta cheese—if you can go beyond the supermarket for this recipe, go to an Italian store that makes creamy ricotta fresh every day, or look for ricotta produced from grass-fed cows. Halibut is my first choice here, but any firm white fish, such as fluke, flounder, hake, striped bass, cod, or scrod, will be
great or a small whole fish. Ask your fishmonger for whatever's best. If using thin fillets such as sole, season them with salt and pepper, then roll them up, skinned side in, before placing them atop the lentils. Watch the fish carefully, and take the casserole out of the oven the moment the fish is cooked through. Note: You can, of course, double the recipe for ricotta dumplings or the ingredients for the fish to make just one version of

May 13, 2011 – After two years of dangerous discussion, the current parliamentary session in Uganda closed today without a vote on the “anti-homosexuality” bill. The coordinator of the civil society coalition opposing the bill, Adrian Jjuuko, put it this way: “The Ugandan parliament has closed today.... Thus the Anti-Homosexuality Bill has to be reintroduced in the new parliament and the whole process to begin all over again. Thank you all for the
efforts and solidarity in fighting this ominous bill. The struggle may have to begin all over again, but for now, the process is over.” Uganda’s Anti-Homosexuality Bill was introduced

During the summer of 2008, FemMed Inc. came to Risdall Marketing Group looking for an agency that would take a chance and launch an eyebrow-raising product named "StandUp" that enabled women to go to the bathroom standing up whether they were camping,
just had back surgery or were pregnant. The product had been developed and redeveloped off and on for 10 years. FemMed came to RMG looking for guidance on marketing a product that was not only of a sensitive nature, but one that addressed a difficulty most women didn't even recognize as a problem. Over the course of the next six months, RMG gave StandUp a total brand makeover from which emerged "GoGirl," the female urination device (FUD) for women who don't take life sitting down.

The communist and fellow-travelling press and platforms in this country are busy building up and defending India's Defence Minister, Mr. V.K. Krishna Menon, in the face of what the leftists describe as "an upsurge of rightist reaction". Krishna Menon himself struts about with an air of injured innocence, and frequently dons the mask of a much misunderstood martyr whose services to the nation have not been properly appreciated. But the nation at large is not convinced. It is not only the politically conscious intelligentsia, concentrated in our
patriotic parties, that suspects Krishna Menon as a sinister influence in our public life. Even the man in the street feels that there is something spurious about his masquerade as a servant of the nation. There is a widespread belief that he is the real author of that disaster which has recently overtaken India's Panchashila policy vis-a-vis communist China.1 A belief is abroad that if Krishna Menon is not immediately removed from his

Today is the first day that San Antonio will be paying the extra sales tax for the Pre-K 4 SA program, and with enrollment for the first two centers beginning in May and classes scheduled to begin in August there are still a lot of questions. I don't know what it says about me, but when a new book was sent to TPR called "Rest in Pieces," I was deemed the person to review it. I have been in love with spooky stuff since I was about four and my horror movie collection is huge, but I think of myself as a fairly regular fellow. If you are lucky enough to read, retain and enjoy disturbing and arcane facts, this book is for you. The race for San Antonio’s City Council District 8 has been chock full of the usual campaigning techniques. Rolando Briones, Ron Nirenberg and Mike Kueber have participated in neighborhood association debates and town forums, they’ve walked the streets and they’ve been out doing community meet and greets. But the heat is on between Briones and Nirenberg, and although Kueber isn't in the middle of the ruckus, he is taking the opportunity to ask questions of
his own.
