Gina, I love your meal plans and use them often. It’s so nice to have everything needed already listed. Your blog and cookbooks feed my family often, and my husband is always happy to hear me say “We’re ‘SkinnyTasting’ tonight.” I appreciate all the work that goes into your site. Thanks so much!
Your meal plans are some of the most realistic out of any I’ve found. I love that you take into account leftovers, and how every meal doesn’t have to be some fancy recipe (like simple breakfasts). There’s also so much flexibility! Thank you for what you do and the inspiration you give me!
Thank you for providing weekly meal plans, Gina! I really appreciate them, and my husband has been having fun seeing what is planned each week!
Love using these plans! It makes life so much easier.
Thank you for these plans!
Love this!! I purchased everything hat I needed and I am feeling great about it!! Thank you Gina!!
I can’t thank you enough for a weekly meal plan this week. I literally could not handle thinking of one more thing right now. Thanks to you I’ve got something in my life figured out and I cannot tell you what a gift that is. I told two people at church today about your site and cookbooks. Thanks!!!
Love, love, love your meal plans. What did I do before you started publishing them? I have been using them for 2 years and they are such a wonderful time saver. My 2 daughters have moved into their own apartments and they love your recipes and planning as well.
I don’t use every recipe you suggest, just because of personal preference, but your plans make my meal planning and shopping so much easier every week. Thank you so much for this AMAZING blog. In a 5 star world, your blog is a 6!
Thank you for sharing these menus! Am I the only one who can’t eat the same thing 4 days in a row? 2 would be my max. Great ideas though.
Thank you SO much for doing these, they are so incredibly helpful; I hope you continue to provide them!
Hello! Thank you for these plans. This is my fourth week using them. While I don’t use everything on the plan, I choose meals that work for us. After I made almost every recipe multiple times from your cookbook , “one and done,” I needed some new recipes in the rotation!!! Thanks for the healthy, delicious recipes each week!
Thank you for giving us free healthy meal plans every week. Happy Easter!
Thank you for doing these! So helpful!
I don’t understand how to open the menu and be able to click on the recipe links.

In 2001, President George W. Bush signed the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act. Not only did the law restructure the income and capital gains tax systems, it also completely overhauled the existing legislation governing the federal estate tax.
Before the Bill was signed into law, the estate tax rate held steady at 55% for all assets over the $1 million threshold. That threshold was raised to $3.5 million with the passage of the new estate tax law and the rate was systematically lowered until it reached 45% by 2009. In 2010 the law provided for a “repeal” of the estate tax, albeit for only one year, after which the 2001 law would sunset and the old estate tax regime with a $1M exemption would be revived. So why the repeal for only one year? This was largely a political maneuver to allow President Bush to make good on his campaign promise to repeal the estate tax. Analysts have been speculating that the law would be amended prior to 2010 to prevent what has in fact occurred, a suspension of the estate tax. Indeed, since January 1st of this year a number of billionaires have been able to virtually avoid the estate tax altogether.
Congress has had a very busy legislative schedule in the recent past (think healthcare and financial reform) but Capitol Hill is finally coming around to address this issue. As lawmakers rush to reinstate the tax, new propositions have been made by both Republicans and Democrats. Though many on the right would like to see the tax abolished for good, progressives would like to raise the rate and lower the exemption threshold. The most probable outcome will likely be a compromise.
One of the Senate’s most influential members, Minority Whip Jon Kyl, who is a Republican from Arizona, has proposed a lower rate with higher exemptions. Though the details of the plan have not been officially released, it is believed by many that the proposed rate would be held at 45% for all estates worth more than $3.5 million. However, some observers have speculated that the plan may call for the threshold to be raised to $5 million with a lower rate of 35%.
One of the more innovative proposals is one which establishes a lifetime prepayment plan. Since the estate tax’s inception in 1916, it has only been imposed after death. With this proposal, estimated estate taxes can be paid long before your last breath. The rate would also decrease from 45% to 35% if it is paid in advance. This way, not only would one pay less in overall estate taxes, but the federal government would also receive revenue sooner.
The downside to paying in advance? First, the payment plan, no matter how flexible, would only be available to the privileged few who have liquid assets lying around. For most, the vast majority of their estate’s assets are held in homes, businesses or other assets with fluctuating market values, which are considered illiquid. Second, problems would arise if someone is able to put assets into a trust and over time it loses, rather than gains value. Lastly, since the payment plan would have to be based on the expected value of the estate at the time of death and not the actual value, unforeseen market fluctuations may either overcharge the individual or underpay the federal government.

KIM Kardashian and Kanye West welcomed third baby Chicago West in January 2018 via a surrogate.
Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West welcomed Chicago West into the family where they already have children Saint and North West.
Arriving in January 2018, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star has already revealed her daughter’s first full photo on Instagram and Snapchat.
And while it’s clear little Chicago has been born into a pretty wealthy family with Kim’s shocking net worth along with the US rapper’s, it would seem she’s already got a pretty bank balance herself.
At just six weeks old, Kylie Jenner's niece is thought to be worth more than $10million – around £7.1million.
It’s reported by Romper that Kim and Kanye set up a trust fund for their children with the multi-million pound figure for when they’re born – a factor she spoke about when she gave birth to North West.
With an instant $10million in the bank, Chicago will not only achieve some of the best interest rates, it also means she never has to work.
The figure is set to soar, however, as Kim and Kanye continue to make more money from their empire and of course, Chicago starts to do any of her own work.
From appearing on family show Keeping Up With The Kardashians to being part of sponsored social media posts, the newborn will be earning money almost instantly.
Kim is currently the second richest family member after sister Kylie’s cosmetic business saw her bank balance soar.
It’s believed the 37 year old is now worth £126.9million following her success with her own beauty brand, Instagram sponsorships and of course, the family show Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
Kanye West isn’t far behind either as in 2015 he had an estimated net worth of £103million.
From Kris Jenner to Rob Kardashian – here’s how much the whole family are worth.

The Division of Vascular Surgery offers a five year vascular surgery residency program, with one position available each year, that was approved by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) in 2009. Applicants must be graduates of LCME-accredited medical schools, osteopathic schools accredited by AOA, or foreign medical schools with ECFMG certification. Southern Illinois University School of Medicine is affiliated with two 600-bed private hospitals, St. John’s Hospital and Memorial Medical Center, that are separated by three-quarters of a mile. The vascular faculty members include Drs. Kim Hodgson, Douglas Hood and Ravishankar Hasanadka. Residents who complete the program are eligible for a primary vascular surgery certificate from the American Board of Surgery.
The operative caseload is varied, covering virtually every aspect of peripheral vascular surgery, but is weighed toward open and endovascular management of carotid stenosis, aortic aneurysms, and lower extremity arterial occlusive disease. The resident is also responsible for interpreting non-invasive laboratory studies, for seeing inpatient consultations, for preparing a vascular conference every week, and for assisting in the outpatient clinic.
Ample time is provided for the residents to participate in clinical and non-invasive vascular laboratory research.
SIU has an outstanding reputation for innovative methods of surgical education, including a premier surgical skills lab. Vascular surgery residents will participate in structured learning experiences including a “boot camp” to master basic surgical skills such as knot tying, suturing, central line placement, anastomotic techniques, chest tube insertion, surgical airway placement and laparoscopic skills. In addition, vascular residents will participate in the department’s Residents as Teachers (RATS) program. Core surgical rotations are concentrated in the first three years of the residency in conjunction with the Division of General Surgery.

SRL | Forums > Help and Tutorials > Old School RuneScape Help and Tutorials > OSR Intermediate Scripting Tutorials > How to make an autotalker with smart, proggy, antiban and more!
View Full Version : How to make an autotalker with smart, proggy, antiban and more!
Now, give the program another name and include smart and srl.scar.
Why do you put smart before srl?
Now, lets make a few variables.
Where are they used for?
We use them to count the anitbans performed, how many times talked in this tutorial.
Variables are used often for variables, but also for mouse moving etc.
Talked, Antibans and TotalTalks are now integers.
Consts are a kind of variables, but they NEVER CHANGE!
We need 3 messages, the smart world to load in, Signed and the run direction.
You simply past it below your variables..
Now it is time to add declareplayers.
I guess you already heard of it.
It is the most used way to make accounts login into runescape by using srl.
procedure Declareplayers is the name of the procedure.
Begin tells scar that there are some things coming which scar needs to do/remember.
HowManyPlayers := 1; is the ammount of players you have.
NumberOfPlayers(HowManyPlayers); Is for srl. It tells srl how many players you filled in at HowManyPlayers:=1;.
CurrentPlayer := 0; is the number of the player you want to start autoing with.
Players.Pass := 'password'; This is the same as for the above thing.. But now with your password of your runescape account.
Players.Nick := 'ser'; Is your nickname.
This is 3 letters of your name (lowercase).
Nicknames are VERY important. They search for antirandoms, and srl will solve them (if you have that in your script).
Players.Active := True; tells srl if this account is going to auto or not.
True means yes, False means no.
end; tells scar the he doesn't need to remember/do anything anymore.
But if ou have more begins (we don't have that here).
It will stop doing something from the last begin.. and will continue from the first begin..
Lets make our first antirandom thing.. the fightavoider!
Procedure FindFightEx; is the name of the procedure.
If(FindFight) then searches for a fight. Srl does this.
Begin is what you have learned before.
Status('Fight found!'); changes the status in the scar window to Fight found!
Writeln('Our player is being attacked!') will write out : player is being attacked! in the debug window in scar.
Writeln('Lets run away!') same as above.. just another sentence.
Status('Running away!'); same as the other status.. just another sentence.
Writeln('Running....'); is the same as you learned before about writeln's.
RunAway(RunDirection,False,1,8000+Random(3000)) this is something new.
This runs away, not far (that is where false is for... to the rundirection (which you made in the const) and waits 8000 miliseconds (8 seconds) and 3000 random miliseconds (3 seconds) and then will run back.
Writeln('Successfully ran away from fight!'); is what you have learned before.
end; is what you have learned before.
Good job! You just made your own fightavoider!
Now lets move on to an antirandoms procedure.
var is variables, you learned that before.
i: Integer; creates a new integer, as learned before.. but now ONLY in this procedure.
Begin is what you learned before.
for i := 0 to 3 do is something new.
You made an integer, i.
for i := 0 to 3 do will do 4 things.
It will do these things.
FindNormalRandoms; Searches for all talking and inventory randoms, made in srl. If found.. it will solve them (if possible).
If it finds a fight.. it will run away and come back later.
FindNonInventoryRandoms; also solves randoms, made in srl.
Now the variable i did 4 things.. so it won't do anything anymore.
end; is what you learned before.
Lets move on to Antiban.
Antiban makes you look like a normal player.
if not LoggedIn then Exit; This will search if you are logged in or not.. If you are logged in, it will do the procedure.. If you are logged out.. It exits the procedure and won't do the procedure.
This does 1 thing of 68 options..
:O We only got 6 options!
When you play runescape legit.. You don't hover over skills always.. And things like that..
This is the first option of the 68.
If it chooses to do this one..
0: Is the number of the option.
begin is what we learned before.
HoverSkill('Mining', False); hovers over the mining skill, but won't click;)It will look like you are checking your exp.
This means: thats we add 1 to the Antibans.
Let me explain this more..
end; is what we learned before.
This will click a random gametab (magic for example), wait a few about 1 second, click on the inventory gametab and add 1 to the Antibans.
This will click gametab 1+ a random 12..
So if it chooses 3 of the random 12..
It will click: 1+3 = 4 .
So it will click gametab 4 then.
This waits 800 milliseconds and a random 500 miliseconds.
Antibans:=Antibans+1; I explained this above.
This will examine things and add 1 to the Antibans..
BoredHuman; Is made in srl and examines things and moves the mouse randomly.
I won't explain option 3 more, since we already know everything.
This will look like the player wants to logout..
This is all done with AlmostLogout; which is made in srl.
I won't explain option 4 more, since we already know everything.
This will do a random emote.
that is all made in DoEmote (numbers here) in srl.
procedure AutoTalk; Is the name of the procedure.
case Random(3) of Chooses 1 of the 3 options.
:O But in antiban... we made it miss some things.. and.. here.. it will always choose one.
0: Typesend(Message1); Is the first option, and will type message1 (which you made in const).
1: Typesend(Message2); is the same as the first option..
The only difference is that it types message 2 and has another option number.
2: Typesend(Message3);Same as for option 2.. only another sentence and another option number.
Talked:= Talked+1; is the same as we did in the antiban procedure..We add 1 to the Talked.
TotalTalks:=TotalTalks+1;Same as above.. but now we add it To TotalTalks.
procedure Proggy; is the name of the procedure.
cleardebug; clears the debug in scar.
writeln('+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++'); writes ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ in the debug in scar.
This will write Talked xxxx Times! in the debug.
writeln('Ran for ' +TimeRunning); will write the time the script is running.
+TimeRunningwill tell the time it is running.
Now lets make the script have smart..
I recommend not changing it.
This sets up scar in SmartWorld (the number you gave it in const) with Signed (You told scar True or not in the const.. true = signed.. false = unsigned).
This will talk, check for randoms, do antiban, do antirandoms again and give a progress report.. and repeat that.
procedure mainloop; is the name of the procedure.
if Talked >= 25 thenchecks if the integer Talked is 25.
AutoTalk; calls the procedure Autotalk and starts talking.
AntiRandoms; calls the procedure AntiRandoms and will search for randoms.
Antiban; calls the procedure Antiban and will do antiban.
AntiRandoms;is the same as 2 lines above.
Proggy;calls the procedure Proggy and will write down a progress report in the debug box of scar.
until(false);makes the repeat go until we can't do it anymore.
We now got the script almost done.
Lets make it do it..
That is the scar mainloop.
It will do everything there stands..
begin we learned that before.
DeclarePlayers; calls the DeclarePlayers procedure and loads your accounts.
LoginPlayer; will login your first player.
SetAngle(true); moves your compass up.
MakeCompass('N'); will make your compass north.
mainloop; calls the procedure mainloop and will start typing and things.
end. is the end of the scar mainloop.
You made your first autotalker..
Please leave a comment, post bugs.
You messed up on some tags, might want to change them so you can read it haha.
Also, smart is useless on an autotalker I think, but it does show how its used.
And.. well smart is usefull IMO.
Why for i := 0 to 3? one time is enough. remove FindNonInventoryRandoms, FindNormalRandoms searchs it too. Fix your standards.
It now does 4 things right?
Really helped me with writing my first script.
rep++ for you pvh. This is very usefull. My first script will be done alot faster thanks too you.
Mattlox 2, on this tread, he posted a usefull post.
So this is NO spamm!
But please do not Hijack my tread.
If he spamms, pm a mod or pm him.
Very nice tutorial. I used some of the procedures, but I credited you :).
you get a big bloody thanks firstly.
Great guide though. Sure you put great effort in it. And not many tutorials explain how to input a proggie.
I had to rip out ALL SMART functions to get this to work. But that is the most stupid thing. WHAT IS UP WITH THE 'Access Violation' THING?!?!?!
umm well AlmostLogout; is no longer a function. Try PickupMouse; instead. and as for the other 2, i cant anwser right now, i got to go.
thx for tut. how i can make for example autofighter smart script? can i put that same smart setup or what?
While I'd like to congratulate you on this tutorial, I'd also like to take a moment to mention that there is a lot of improvement that can be had, as well as clean up.
In this, you essentially need to "talk less and do more". You say, "Successfully ran away from fight", though all you really know is that you successfully ran in some pre-defined direction; you didn't actually check to make sure that the fight ended (or that you're not in a new one).
Setting up the variable and the for loop was pointless. If you take a look at it, the for loop just repeats "FindNormalRandoms" 4 times; no point in doing that. wait(1) at the end, is another pointless feature.
Actually, what a for loop does it loops through an action, or series of actions, a specified number of times.
Since he neglected to use "begin" and "end;" statements around the things that he wants done, only the one that comes immediatly after the for loop is executed 4 times (Findnormalrandoms).
Great Tut easy to read. Easy steps to follow user friendly repp for you bru usually i can only read so much of a tut but i could read urs so easily i read the whole thing.

Firstly I must thank the maintenance team at Blyth Park for the sterling work done on behalf of the club to make sure the site was tidy and presentable for the membership, just cutting the grass on a site of that size is a mammoth commitment!! Away from the grounds the club house, cottage and cadet block plus the showers and toilets all need regular cleaning, a pretty thankless task and those who do not help on site should be aware of the gratitude they owe this band of members. When it comes to sailing we are fortunate to have knowledgeable members who give a lot of time to make sure the tractors and ribs are in good shape and ready for action.
To all these volunteers I say a huge heartfelt thank you.
Although we have such a marvellous site the apathy amongst the racing fleet has not improved on 2016 but once again as we move to the 2018 season I am full of optimism.
The weekend of June 2nd and 3rd is also seeing a visit by the RYA windsurfer trainers who will be carrying out a masterclass with about twenty surfers (could be well worth seeing). I also understand we will once again be hosting a Dart 18 TT. So it is not all doom and gloom.
Another bright spot is the amount of weekend activity with the cadets. Kevin Porter, Chris O’Connell and Leigh Trowsdale have spent hours with the cadets on the club’s Picos, kayaks and windsurfers, which has resulted in some potentially excellent sailors. With the lack of berths in the harbour Blyth Park remains the one area where we can expand our activities. For this reason the club has continued to invest in the site and it is up to every member to do their bit in promoting Blyth Park and its facilities to the sailing fraternity.
Please note that everyone should be welcomed to the site and even if you do not know the person they should be treated with respect. First ascertain whether they are actually members, if they are, help them if required! If they are not, are they potential SAILING members? and if so give them the tour. If they are just looking for parking explain politely that it is a members only facility and point them to the park and ride.
I am very proud of Blyth Park and all I ask is that everyone shares my desire to make it the best sailing venue on the east coast.

We offer leveling kits for various Toyota Tacoma applications. Kits will help with raising the front end so that your Tacoma is leveled. This will give you increase ground clearance and allow you to add slightly larger tires. Leveling kits will also eliminate the nose-down look that is commonly seen in most trucks. All kits are custom made for various Toyota Tacoma applications.
A common question we get regarding leveling kits is if they will provide load support. The answer is no, leveling kits will level out your but will not support any front end weight. If you added weight to the front of your truck like a plow, we suggest going with a front tacoma timbren kit and coil sumosprings like sumosprings CSS-1094 for the 05-14 Tacoma.

Data Center Stocks: Will 10GBASE-T Slow SFP+'s Growth in the Data Center?
Will 10GBASE-T Slow SFP+'s Growth in the Data Center?
SFP+ is primarily being used in two markets currently – 10G Ethernet and 8G Fibre Channel. The Fibre Channel market is almost exclusively optical SFP+ modules while, the 10G Ethernet market is expected to see its largest growth in SFP+ direct-attach copper (DAC) products. SFP+ DAC will mainly be used in top-of-rack (ToR) switches that connect to servers within a rack. Multi-million port forecasts that are predicted over the next few years are predicated on an anticipated high-rate of adoption of this architecture in the data center. Even if this topology is used, once 10GBASE-T becomes more readily available, SFP+ DAC will be sharing its market with this less costly variant. Some OEMs believe quantities of each will be about the same, but I have my doubts. If history tells us anything, which it usually does, once the less expensive BASE-T variant takes hold, it usually pushes the more costly alternatives to much smaller volume.
But, right now it is a matter of timing. I am skeptical that the 10GBASE-T adoption in switches will be able to keep pace with the port-density need in the data center in the short-term. Both products will be needed in the long term – 10GBASE-T for inexpensive connections and 10GBASE-CR (SFP+ DAC) for lower latency, lower power consumption and more flexibility. Currently, if you want both copper and fiber ports on your 10G switch, you need to use SFP+ because there are no switches that contain both 10GBASE-T and optical.

text: Sometimes I wonder what I am going to write about next and this time it came to me while looking at a interior designers website. It was full of beautiful rooms that were very badly photographed. Before I became a photographer, I was a freelance illustrator and knew the value of having my work professionaly photographed. This is my attempt to help those designers and businesses that can’t afford professional photography. First off, you need to level your camera, cellphone, tablet, or other capture device. This means attaching it to a tripod. What you are trying to avoid is the keystone effect, or tilting and shaking. Either of these will not enhance the care you put into remodeling the room. I’m not sure about tablets, but I know that there are mounting devises for cellphones. Next set your capture devise to the highest quality setting. If you are using a camera, set it to 100 ISO Raw. Picking the time of day is also important. This means avoiding the times when direct sunlight is blasting through the windows and I also would avoid shooting after dark. With the right tools and knowledge both can be beautiful, but for this article we will keep it simple. If capturing both the interior and what’s outside is important, you need to pick a time when ambient light inside and out are the same. When you take your first test shot pay attention for color casts. Some indoor lighting can make a room look green, or another unwanted color. Another setting that cameras and most cellphones have is HDR, “Hi Dynamic Range”. This will help control the highlights and shadows in the room. Now, if you have done everything above correctly, your next step is to bring the image into a photo editing program to do the final adjustments on color and contrast. If you have any questions, please contact me at: dan@dannaylor.com.

In searching the internet, reading the papers and listening to the TV, I see where Donald Trump has received a lot of negative publicity. No one, and I mean basically NO ONE likes Mr. Trump.
Why? What has Donald Trump personally done to you to not vote for him? Have you picked up an offense from someone? Why are you so critical of this man? If even the Supreme Court was the only issue to vote for him that should be enough—the future of your children and grandchildren are at stake. He has given us his pro-life constitutional sound nominations!
I believe there are biblically sound insights regarding this volatile election and this man Donald Trump.
Do you consider him your enemy?
27 “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you.
Do you believe he hates you?
17 ‘You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.
has he spitefully used you?
37 Do not fret because of evildoers, Nor be envious of the workers of iniquity. 2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, And wither as the green herb.
3 Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. 4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. 6 He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday.
do you have bitterness in your heart towards him?
15 A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger.
How should one respond if you are a Christian conservative?
Have I picked up someone else’s offence against Donald Trump?
We must be honest here. Where did this possible doubt, anger, bitterness, frustration, and contention come from towards Donald Trump? If you have no personal relationship with Donald Trump, then you have acquired someone else’s offense. What should be the biblical response if you are a Christian conservative?
The answer is easy as we extend forgiveness, restoration, and love towards that individual.
Accusations, slander, and criticism is what nurtures division, especially in the body of Christ. A house divided cannot stand (see Matthew 12:25). As a Christian have you ever considered that the enemy of our souls, namely Satan, may be deceiving us and using those who have hardened their hearts against Trump? This could be a possibility to bring division.
Be aware of pride and heard heartedness!
I write this as a former observer of Ted Cruz and Ben Carson. I observed people who said early on they would never vote for Donald Trump no matter what. Hearts became very hard and pride settled in because to change their position now really would be an act of HUMILITY. Pride is usually accompanied by stubbornness and arrogance. Blindness is a result and a veil is put over a heart.
I must vote my conscience!
For many this means not voting for Donald Trump. Instead they will vote third party, write-in a candidate, or maybe not vote at all. You must logically reason this out and realize it is a vote for Hillary Clinton—and what she stands for. There is no way around this. Waiting another four years would neutralize any candidate that you would prefer to be President.
Does my conscience stand for a conservative pro-life U.S. constitutionally-based Supreme Court (Trump gave us a list of pro-life constitutionally sound judges that he would nominate)?
Does my conscience allow a candidate to take office who would most assuredly nominate liberal judges that would impact my children and grandchildren’s lives for the next forty years (look at Trump’s nominations)?
Does my conscience agree with restoring the rule of law and order in our nation (Trump states the he will restore that)?
Does my conscience agree with protecting Christian liberties, our freedom of speech, and eliminating the 501(c)3 tax status so pastors could speak freely (Trump said he would do all of these)?
Does my conscience realize that our present open borders are allowing in gang cartels, ISIS, and Muslim extremists that endanger all American lives, including my own family possibly (Trump understands and said he would put a stop to that)?
Does my conscience allow NO vetting of refugees from nations who are predominantly Muslim (Trump will vet and stop this illegal immigration—Hillary will not and increase immigration)?
Does my conscience see the plight of people in our inner cities and jobs needed to bring hope back to all minority groups (policies of last eight years have failed)?
Does my conscience support police, our military, and border agents who need our help and they overwhelmingly support Donald Trump?
Does my conscience realize that Common Core in our educational system is detrimental to our children (Trump would eliminate Common Core)?
Does my conscience see that Obamacare is destroying our health care system in America (Trump will repeal and reinvent new strategy)?
Does my conscience see a need to preserve our second amendment as it was designed to stop oppressive government (Trump said he would protect our second amendment rights—endorsed by NRA)?
Does my conscience favor Socialism/Globalism or freedom (Hillary is a pure progressive socialist and globalist)?
Does my conscience allow me to judge another person’s heart (Trump) when the Bible says only God looks at the motive and intents of the heart?
My conscience gives me the responsibility to look out for the future of my children and grandchildren so they can lead a peaceable and godly life. So I will pray for those in authority with all my heart, which may be the Trump/Pence team (see I Timothy 2:1-5).
I will continue to pray for Hillary Clinton—that her eyes would be opened and also for our current President Obama. Many have been praying for them over the years, but it appears they have chosen to harden their hearts. With Donald Trump I can see a veil being lifted and his eyes being opened. If we diligently pray for him and stop the accusations, the Scripture below will manifest itself because he is open to a biblical worldview paradigm.
21 The king’s heart is in the hand of the Lord, Like the rivers of water; He turns it wherever He wishes.
Many consider Trump evil and Hillary Clinton more evil. When have we ever NOT voted for the lesser of two evils? The only perfect candidate is Jesus Christ! Reflect back on all those you have voted for. You will see that all men are flawed in one way or another. When Mitt Romney ran he belonged to what many consider a cult and did not have many of the conservative positions that Donald Trump has. Did you vote for George W. Bush, who was a member of secret societies and said that Islam and Christianity serve the same God? I could easily point out the flaws in Ted Cruz as this election process unfolded—dishonesty and name calling. I understand that he is just a man as you and I—and under extreme pressure.
May we consider biblical examples that characterize different types of individuals? We see in the Bible that there are individuals that God used or anointed to carry out His purposes but yet did not acknowledge Him (Cyrus – Isaiah 45:1-6). Isn’t it interesting we are electing the 45th President of the United States? We must be fair and see that God uses individuals for His purposes that are not saved or recognize Him. What about King Artaxerxes when he allowed Nehemiah to build the wall? Read Nehemiah 1 and 2 and see how God used a king who did not recognize Him. God frequently used Old Testament kings who did not tear down all the evil altars but still blessed them.
When I assess Donald Trump I realize that he did not deny Christ like Peter did three times. He did not have Christians persecuted or killed like the Apostle Paul when he was Saul. Quite the contrary, Donald Trump said he would protect Christian liberties and eliminate the 501(c)3 tax status so pastors can speak their mind about any political issue. I see how God could use David who committed adultery and had Bathsheba’s husband literally killed. Donald Trump said he has acknowledged Christ as Savior. We have the right to question that but still cannot judge his heart. At least we have something to work with and pray that God would surround him with godly counsel. He has appointed a Christian advisory team around him. I believe Ben Carson and Mike Pence will be a great influence upon him.
Stop the accusations and look for the good in Donald Trump!
The Christian attitude should be to pray, exhort, encourage, and look for the good in Donald Trump. If he has accepted Christ as some Christian leaders have indicated, is he in a growth process? All new Christians go through it. We see the terminology in the Bible: a babe in Christ, young, and then mature in Christ. We have no idea the pressures that he feels in this volatile election process. It is easy for armchair critics to complain, murmur, and grumble. The Bible clearly warns us against this type of attitude. Look for the good and speak life and blessings into this individual as well as his family. That is always the safest and higher ground to take.
4 Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members? 2 You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet[a] you do not have because you do not ask. 3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.
What about Donald Trump’s past?
What about it? My first question would be what about your past? What about my own past? As we look at our friends, family, acquaintances, who need to have a true relationship in the Lord Jesus Christ—do you throw up their past into their face? That is the purpose of the Holy Spirit to bring conviction! Today is a new day. If we pray as a church united and not divided, we could very easily see that Donald Trump’s past is the past—and he has a turning of the heart slow as it may seem.
May we as a praying church bear his burdens and pray for his family as well. How many of us know Christians who after initially accepting Jesus Christ reverted back into some old destructive ways? Should we not be a people who would pray, encourage, uplift, and exhort those people so they could be restored? Treat Donald Trump as if he was one of your own children or a good friend.
Our nation hangs in the balance and God has given the church the opportunity and responsibility to shift a nation. May we work together as one?
Who is responsible for transforming a culture?
It is the job of the church to transform a culture towards a biblical worldview. The grassroots church must rise up and contend for the faith in issues of morality. So many times we think the other person will do it. No President that would be elected can transform a culture. A President may help in the process, but it is people such as you and I who must engage our sphere of influence so America can exemplify Proverbs 14:34 where it says only the righteousness can exalt the nation. The blame must be placed on the church for the condition of our culture and nation—not any one elected official!

Volvo Trucks will start selling electric trucks in Europe in 2019, and the first units will be put into operation with select customers in 2018.
Volvo Trucks will start selling electric trucks in Europe in 2019, and the first units will be put into operation with select customers in 2018. Electric trucks drastically reduce noise and exhaust emissions and create new opportunities to manage logistics. More transport assignments can be carried out at night, resulting in fewer trucks competing for road space during rush hour. Work toward commercialization of electric trucks in North America is ongoing as advancements in battery technology accelerate viability for North American duty cycles and energy demands for a broad range of applications.
Volvo Trucks will start selling electric trucks in Europe in 2019, and the first units will be put into operation with select customers in 2018. Work toward commercialization of electric trucks in North America is ongoing as advancements in battery technology accelerate viability for North American duty cycles and energy demands for a broad range of applications. Without disturbing noise and exhaust emissions, it will be possible to operate in more sensitive city centers. Transport may also take place throughout less busy periods, for example in late evening and at night.
“Urban distribution and other pick-up and delivery applications are a starting point for battery-powered electric trucks, but we envision broader deployment of electric trucks for freight movement in North America as technologies and the market mature,” said Nyberg.
In order to improve the quality of life in urban environments, more sustainable transport solutions need to be adopted. With well-developed logistics and more effective utilization of roads in the evenings and at night, it is also possible for many smaller vehicles to be replaced by fewer but larger vehicles, thus further contributing to lower emissions and less traffic. For example, distribution trucks have just over ten times the load capacity of a regular van. If a larger proportion of transport assignments could be carried out during hours when fewer people are on the road, this will also significantly reduce the risk of accidents.
According to the World Health Organization and the United Nations, 60 percent of the world’s population – about 5 billion people – will live in cities by 2030. This is an increase of just over 1 billion compared with current levels. This swift pace of urbanization will impose immense demands on transportation systems, which in many cases already are insufficient to meet current needs. Studies identify traffic congestion as a significant source of lost productivity that can cost cities and industries billions of dollars annually.

Yeah, you want a six-pack, but a strong core doesn’t just make you look great. This workout blends three different specialities and it’ll challenge your abs to stabilise your body as you train other muscles too.
Do this full-body workout 3 times a week, resting at least 1 day between sessions. If you’re new to the gym, this is all the fitness you’ll need for the entire month. You can also add these moves to your own workouts.
Do these moves in order for 5 minutes, resting as needed, to fire up your glutes and core.
Start on all fours, knees below hips and wrists under shoulders.
Tighten your core and keep your hips parallel to the floor as you extend your left arm in front of you and straighten your right leg behind you.
Hold, return to the start, and repeat on the other side.
That’s 1 rep; do 8.
Start in a left-side plank, right arm straight up in the air.
Rotate your right arm down and slide it underneath your left armpit, twisting your torso.
That’s 1 rep; do 10 per side.
Start in a right-side plank, right knee on the floor.
Tighten your core and use your hip muscles to raise your left leg as high as possible.
That’s 1 rep; do 3 sets of 15 per side.
Do the exercises in order. Rest 1 minute between each set.
Hinge your hips, bending your knees as you lower your torso until you can grasp a trap bar loaded with moderate weight.
Without letting your back round, brace your abs and stand.
That’s 1 rep; do 3 sets of 8.
Set up 2 equal-height boxes so you can place your feet on a box and your forearms on another.
Get into forearm-plank position on the boxes with only your left forearm on the front box.
Hold a medium-weight dumbbell in your right hand, arm hanging naturally.
Keeping your hips level, row the dumbbell toward your right hip.
That’s 1 rep; do 3 sets of 8 per side.
Get in push-up position, your feet on a bench.
Grasp a light dumbbell in your right hand.
Rotate your torso until the dumbbell points toward the ceiling and your right arm is in line with your left.
Pause, then return to the start, keeping your arm straight as you lower.
That’s 1 rep; do 3 sets of 6 per side.
Lie on a bench with only your shoulder blades, neck, and head supported, holding dumbbells over your chest, arms straight.
Your feet should be hip-width apart, knees bent at 90 degrees, glutes tight.
Bend your arms at the elbows and shoulders, lowering the dumbbells to your chest.
Wrap up with a total-body move.
Hold a heavy kettlebell (or dumbbell) in your right hand.
Tighten your abs and oblique muscles so that the weight does not tilt your torso toward the right side.
Walk 10 steps forward, then take 10 steps backward.
Continue until time is up, resting only as needed.

Communication and compensation were some of the issues raised by Canterbury farmers dealing with Mycoplasma bovis phased eradication at meetings in Ashburton in early November.
The meetings were part of a nationwide plan to garner feedback from farmers under regulatory control.
A similar meeting was held in Hamilton and others were planned for Invercargill and Oamaru.
Ministry for Primary Industries' Mycoplasma bovis director Geoff Gwyn said about 25 M. bovis-affected farmers attended two farmer meetings in Ashburton on November 9.
There were also managers from the newly established M. bovis Directorate, industry partners, as well as a veterinary epidemiologist working on the response and members of the MPI compensation team.
Read more Mycoplasma bovis stories here.
The meetings were closed to the public to give affected farmers the chance to have ''free and frank conversations with key decision-makers on the M. bovis response''.
Farmers shared stories about their personal experiences dealing with M. bovis and the response and then gave feedback or suggested solutions around some of the actions taken as part of the phased eradication response.
''It is clear that many have experienced difficult times as a result of the M. bovis outbreak.
''Farmers were provided the opportunity to suggest practical improvements they would like to see.
Over the course of the two meetings, Gwyn said similar topics and questions were raised, such as communication and actions taken on individual cases.
There were also more general questions around processes, the reasoning behind decisions, compensation eligibility and the challenge of replacing ''like-for-like''.
• On the first visit to a farm the ICP manager and farmer sit down to set out a plan for the 12 months ahead with indicative timeframes so response activities can be factored into farming activities.
• Field testing staff giving farmers a written receipt to confirm what action has been taken on their farm.
• Setting up an online portal for farmers to provide access to all the information held about their farm.
• Providing farmers with a handy one-page of contact people and numbers.
• Flow charts for ICP managers to talk through with farmers to give them an indication of what they can expect.
• Direct point of contacts into the response for ICP managers to raise issues and answer questions.
• Publication of the National Plan for the response.
• Increasing the number of staff working on compensation claims.
• Establishing a liaison team for farmers under active surveillance.
• Establishing regional recovery managers.
• Publishing a milk production example scenario.
• New compensation resources to cover a variety of different scenarios, which were due to be released.

Substantivism - Wisdom is the retention of innocence through adversity.
An errant critique, written June 4, 2008 (!) - contains some absurd statements.
We are so short sighted that we assume that just because the prophecies of some far seeing individuals like Marx or Polanyi haven't come to pass, they never will.
It is true that Polanyi's book is regarded as probably the greatest social science read of the twentieth century. But it is wrong to assume that it is assigned to students. I started college just eight years after its publication and spent the next sixteen years, off and on, in "higher" education venues. I majored in Sociology, and took quite a few history classes and some economics. I don't remember Polanyi ever being mentioned, let alone assigned.
I did suggest him to my students, and assigned him to one class, but i don't anyone else doing that.
yes - we are profoundly short-sighted about so much!

The new King abd ul-Aziz Gate (باب الملك عبدالعزيز) of Masjid al-Haram, also called the Bab al-Malik (King's gate) for short. The recent reconstruction of the gate is a drastic deviation of typical architecture of the Masjid al-Haram. The gate has distintly square-features as compared to it's predecessor, and displays a more modern look rathern than familiar Saudi architecture which evolved from the Ottoman architecture of the Great Mosque.
The new King abd ul-Aziz Gate of Masjid al-Haram, also called the Bab al-Malik (King's gate) for short. The King Abdulaziz Gate is located right opposite Ajyad Street, the Kabah is directly visible from this portal. It is one of the four major gates of old Masjid al-Haram (circa 1970-80 CE) that were renovated during the Malik 'Abdullah expansion of the mosque.
King abd ul-Aziz Gate of Masjid al-Haram as it stood bedore the recent renovation. Overlooking the Holy Mosque, in front of the King Abdulaziz gate, stands Safwa Towers. Its striking lobby, with a stepped-ceiling, exudes an ambiance of famous Arabic hospitality. The smaller gate to the left is Bab Ibrahim, gate no. 94, which is named after prophet Ibrahim. There are about 200 gates of Masjid al-Haram. The predecessor of current Bab Malik (باب الملك) had two minarets.

I hope you picked up your copy of the QN magazine and are enjoying all of the fun projects in this issue!
Please make sure to post a comment on my blog or on my Happy Stash Quilts Facebook page by midnight tonight EST to be entered in a drawing! Winners will be announced on Tuesday!
If the black, yellow and gray version of Rectangular Prisms caught your eye, scroll on down to see several color variations of this quilt. I have also included a few tips for construction of the quilt top.
The trick to selecting fabric for this quilt is to concentrate on value. Make the trapezoids out of Light and Dark fabrics. Use a medium value fabric for the triangles. This will give you a fun three dimensional look to the quilt.
Don't be shy! Cut several layers at once. I like to cut strips the height of the trapezoid and the height of the triangle. Then I speed up the process by cutting four layers at once.
Now, I must admit, I am not a perfectionist with sewing. Sometimes my pieces get a trip to the rotary barber for a slight haircut before moving onto the next step.
Now sew the long rows together... once again focus on lining up the places where the triangle tips meet.
Enjoy your quilt! If you really don't want to tackle binding all of the points at the top and bottom of the quilt, simply trim the triangles along the top and the bottom edges 1/4" above where the Dark and Light Trapezoid meet. Now you will have a traditional rectangular quilt to bind.
great pattern. I have the jaybird quilts hexnmore ruler. I wonder if it would work for this pattern.
thank you for the tutorial. Your option using the brown/beige/orange combo was my favourite. Very striking.
That looks fun! I always like designs that seem to sparkle. I think FracturedFlowers is my favorite right now.

Love your quilt and thanks for the tips for the fabric selections.
The trapezoid sewing tips are appreciated. Glad to discover your blog. And Robin’s Rainbows is wonderful!!
Thanks for the sewing tip. Love your City Blocks quilt. And thanks for the chance to win.
Neat quilts. I’m in love with the Fractured flowers quilt. Amazing!
I was looking at your Fractured Flowers pattern last night online. Love the way it “flows”.
Love your quilt! Thanks for the quick tute. That will be helpful to whomever makes the quilt. I am intrigued by your zig zag bindings. I think you have inspired me to leave the hexies whole on the ends of my hexie quilt and do my binding like you did.
I love your quilt. Yellow is not a colour I normally use but it sure works in this instance. Great design and a wonderful 3 dimensional look.

Cill Da Bhide is an 18th/19th century settlement at Langamull (near Dervaig) on the Isle of Mull.
Members of the Mull Archaeology Interest Group (MAIG) initially conducted an archaeological survey of the site as part of the Scotland’s Rural Past project to record the visible remains of the township. With the help of Heritage and Archaeological Research Practice Ltd (HARP) members also undertook a small scale programme of trial trenching to glean more information about the settlement. MAIG wish to raise awareness of the site, create a trail linking this site to other archaeological sites in the area and create opportunities for young people and adults to be involved with the project.
With advice and support from the Adopt-a-Monument scheme, MAIG have been clearing the site of areas of rubble and vegetation to improve access and creating ‘natural paths’ for visitors to access the site more easily. With training and support from AaM, further survey of the site, and other sites in the area, will be conducted by members of MAIG with opportunities for local young people. Following this, MAIG members hope to design and create a series of interpretation boards and a leaflet promoting and describing the heritage trail.

text: Monoclonal antibody (mAb) L8A4 binds specifically to the epidermal growth factor receptor variant III (EGFRvIII) that is present on gliomas but not on normal tissues, and is internalized rapidly after receptor binding. Because of the short range of its β-emissions, labeling this mAb with (177)Lu would be an attractive approach for the treatment of residual tumor margins remaining after surgical debulking of brain tumors.L8A4 mAb was labeled with (177)Lu using the acyclic ligands [(R)-2-amino-3-(4-isothiocyanatophenyl)propyl]-trans-(S,S)-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine-pentaacetic acid (CHX-A″-DTPA) and 2-(4-isothiocyanatobenzyl)-6-methyldiethylene-triaminepentaacetic acid (1B4M-DTPA), and the macrocyclic ligands S-2-(4-isothiocyanatobenzyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-tetraacetic acid (C-DOTA) and α-(5-isothiocyanato-2-methoxyphenyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (MeO-DOTA). Paired-label tissue distribution experiments were performed in athymic mice bearing subcutaneous EGFRvIII-expressing U87.ΔEGFR glioma xenografts over a period of 1 to 8 days to directly compare (177)Lu-labeled L8A4 to L8A4 labeled with (125)I using N-succinimidyl 4-guanidinomethyl-3-[(125)I]iodobenzoate ([(125)I]SGMIB).Except with C-DOTA, tumor uptake for the (177)Lu-labeled mAb was significantly higher than the co-administered radioiodinated preparation; however, this was also the case for spleen, liver, bone and kidneys. Tumor/normal tissue ratios for (177)Lu-1B4M-DTPA-L8A4 and, to an even greater extent, (177)Lu-MeO-DOTA-L8A4 were higher than those for [(125)I]SGMIB-L8A4 in most other tissues.Tumor and normal tissue distribution patterns for this anti-EGFRvIII mAb were dependent on the nature of the bifunctional chelate used for (177)Lu labeling. Optimal results were obtained with 1B4M-DTPA and MeO-DOTA, suggesting no clear advantage for acyclic vs. macrocyclic ligands for this application.

West Ink apologises for Samas "outburst"
Cape Town – South African singer Babes Wodumo was at the centre of a social media storm on Thursday when fans wondered if her scheduled trip to attend the BET Awards was cancelled.
This follows IOL’s report that Babes Wodumo is not going to The States anytime in the next few days because she has not applied for an American Travel visa.
Local magazine Drum also reports that Mampintsha (who is Babes's boyfriend and her record label boss) is still trying to get a Visa appointment with the US consulate.
Babes is nominated for the Best International Act: Africa award at the ceremony which is due to take place on Sunday, 25 June.
The Juice reached out to Babes’s label, West Ink Records and spoke to a person named Melody who refused to give her last name.
When we asked Melody if Babes was still going to The US and attending awards ceremony she said (repeatedly): "She’s definitely going, she’s going to The BET Awards, she’ll be at the BET Awards."
On Wednesday, 14 June the eThekweni Municipality gave Babes and Nasty (who both come from that region) a big send-off at the Moses Mabhida Stadium and they were interviewed at the airport by eNCA.
When we asked Melody if there was any delay with Babes’ trip and why she wasn’t travelling with Nasty C (who is already living it up Stateside) after having the above big send-offs with him and The West ink representative said: "Those photos and social media posts weren’t saying that Nasty C and Babes were not saying that they were going to travel together, it was just to celebrate their nominations."

Enemalta has issued a call for tenders for a new distribution centre in Kappara which will cater for the electricity needs of the North-East of Malta and also be Malta's link with the interconnector to the European power grid, Finance Minister Tonio Fenech said. Preparations for the new distribution centre have already been started, with workers currently drilling galleries through which the cables with run.
Engineer Marco Cremona’s revolutionary water technology wins acclaim of international panel. It is estimated that each hotel guest in Malta consumes at least three times as much water as a Maltese resident, for an annual consumption of around 3 million cubic metres of water a year.
This bleak fact is what prompted Ing. Marco Cremona to design a system that transforms wastewater, produced by a typical hotel in Malta, into potable water in a reliable and cost-effective way. Through this recycling process, 80% of the water that is normally consumed by the hotel can be saved.
Running a small business should to be simplified under a new approach steered by the Information Secretariat. During the first in a series of dialogues, the Better Regulation Unit unveiled an action plan to cut down on red tape with the aim of improving competitiveness.
Businesses involved in the environment sector that had been invited for the first round of consultations, were given a chance to flag some administrative burdens.
The Enemalta Professional Officers' Union has come out against the proposed submarine cable connecting Sicily and Malta.
"Questions arise whether the security of supply will be threatened at the expense of reducing emissions. The submarine cable is a real time provider of electricity and given the scenario of a cable fault occurring when 200MW are being supplied, the electricity network in Malta will surely collapse and plunge the whole nation in darkness with very serious consequences for the whole business community on the island. To add insult to injury repairing a fault at sea is not an easy task especially if the elements of nature are against you. The cable interconnection has to be evaluated vis-à-vis the political, economical and social implications it may have."

Oxford English Dictionary included ‘Chuddies’ in its quarterly update released this week.
The word became popular after it was used as a part of a catchphrase in a BBC television series in mid-1990s.
The Oxford English Dictionary included 650 new words on March 18.
The Indian English word for underpants, Chuddies, is among the 650 new words recently added to the Oxford English Dictionary.
The etymology of ‘Chuddies’ in the Oxford English Dictionary states: ‘Short trousers, shorts. Now usually: underwear; underpants. British colloquial.
Although the word was used in several gazettes and publications during the British rule it gained much traction when it was used in a popular comedy series ‘Goodness Gracious Me’ aired on BBC television, reported Hindustan Times.
Jonathan Dent, OED Senior Assistant Editor told the Times of India, the dismissive ‘kiss my chuddies' was popularised as a catchphrase by actor and writer Sanjeev Bhaskar, who played one half of the teenage duo known as the Bhangra Muffins in the 1990s BBC comedy sketch show ‘Goodness Gracious Me'.
Over the centuries, many Indian words have been recognised in English and are used in day-to-day language. In fact, a glossary published in 1886 named ‘Hobson-Jobson’ figured as many as 2000 Indian words. Some other words of Indian etymology used commonly are: loot, bungalow, avatar, mantra, chutney, cot, dacoit, dungaree, juggernaut, guru, pundit, khaki, jungle, nirvana, pukka, pyjamas, veranda, maharajah and punch.

Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Saeed Jalili (third R) was heading the Iranian negotiating delegation in the talks with the P5+1 in Baghdad.
…the Agency is unable to provide credible assurance about the absence of undeclared nuclear material and activities in Iran, and therefore to conclude that all nuclear material in Iran is in peaceful activities.
We have listened to the wisdom in an old Russian maxim. And I’m sure you’re familiar with it, Mr. General Secretary, though my pronunciation may give you difficulty. The maxim is: Dovorey no provorey — trust, but verify.
President Reagan made the phrase, “trust, but verify” practically synonymous with US-Soviet arms control. It’s also a phrase that has been adopted by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), which advertises itself as having “a proven track record of remaining true to the principle ‘trust but verify.’” “Trust, but verify” captures a certain common sense notion of the tension between exhibiting faith in someone else’s intentions, and the desire to make sure that your judgment is correct by checking to see that their deeds match their words. However, after spending this past week learning about international nuclear safeguards policy, I came to the conclusion that “trust and verify” would be a more principled basis on which to build confidence in nonproliferation.
The course, International Nuclear Safeguards Policy, was co-hosted by the Center for Nonproliferation Studies and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. In it experts from the IAEA and national labs covered the history and legal foundations of safeguards, and the technical aspects of the process through which IAEA inspectors verify that the material facts on the ground match the declaration of activities provided by officials of the country under inspection. Historically, the primary responsibility of IAEA inspectors has been to build confidence in the Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT) by accounting for declared nuclear material as it moves through the nuclear fuel cycle, and certifying that the declaration is correct. Through this process IAEA can provide de facto assurance that the country in question is not diverting any of the declared material from energy production to nuclear weapons programs. Known as Comprehensive Safeguards, these agreements are technically challenging to verify, but fairly straightforward.
What Comprehensive Safeguards do not—and cannot—do is certify beyond a doubt that there are no clandestine activities being carried out simultaneously. In other words, they cannot verify that a declaration is complete. So, if you think the point of safeguards is to prevent cheating, they will always fall short of expectations—as they did most recently with the revelation of Iran’s covert nuclear enrichment program, and most significantly in the case of Iraq’s illicit weapon program during the 1980s and early 90s. In both cases, the countries in question did not divert material from their declared nuclear activities, but rather created a parallel, clandestine program for enriching uranium from other sources.
Advocates of the Additional Protocol believe that it strengthens the IAEA, but there is another side to this story. Comprehensive Safeguards, as originally designed, essentially amount to an audit. They simply verify that a state’s declaration is an accurate description of the activities it contains, and states are presumed to be in compliance unless there is information to indicate otherwise. Audits create a sense of accountability, but they also give the state in question a mechanism with which to credibly demonstrate its own mastery of the nuclear fuel cycle. In this sense they are mutually beneficial. Under the Additional Protocol, in contrast, inspectors have gone from being auditors, to being detectives. The IAEA’s expanded authority means that inspectors can now seek access to undeclared facilities, including access based on third-party evidence. States under inspection have gone from being presumed innocent until proven guilty, to being assumed guilty until proven innocent. This places both the IAEA and the states under inspection in an untenable position.
In the long-term the Additional Protocol will undermine the credibility of the system. The problem is that the impartiality of the IAEA depends upon a scientifically rational process, yet the Additional Protocol does not respect the limits of that process. In setting out to “provide assurance as to the absence of undeclared nuclear materials” the IAEA is setting itself up to fail. Proving a non-event stumbles on an irresolvable epistemological problem because we can never know for sure that there isn’t something else the IAEA overlooked. As a result, it asks too much of the inspectors. Under the auditing function an inspector performs for traditional Comprehensive Safeguards agreements, she or he could say with certainty, “I can verify that under the bounded conditions of the declaration, the facts on the ground match the statement at hand.” Anything above and beyond that is left up to others to interpret. However, under the Additional Protocol, in the final instance, any honest inspector will be force to say, “All we can tell you is what we have found, anything else we cannot know for sure.” If they have not found any evidence of an illicit nuclear program, yet suspicions abound, this conclusion will always be unsatisfactory because it cannot help us distinguish between violators and non-violators. Yet, a stronger statement in either direction will inevitably appear politically motivated.
For the sake of argument, let’s say Iran admits IAEA inspectors to Parchin and they find nothing, what would that prove? What kind of evidence would be sufficient to assure the IAEA and P5+1 that Iran does not have a clandestine nuclear program? How can you trust in a finding that by its very nature cannot be verified? In the case of Iraq, the US wasn’t satisfied until post-invasion inspections laid bare the entire country. If we continue down the same road, we are likely to end up with a similar outcome in Iran. This is an alternative for which the US government should be prepared. However, it is a less than desirable outcome for all parties involved.
If instead of basing safeguards policy on the principle of “trust, but verify,” we predicate it on the twin pillars of trust and verification, it changes the approach and, hopefully, the outcome. “Trust, but verify” poses trust and verification as alternatives to one another. That’s why Reagan liked the saying. It’s a funny way of saying you trust someone, while at the same time acknowledging that you don’t. “Trust and verify,” on the other hand, poses trust and verification as two complementary pillars, both of which are necessary for the functioning of effective safeguards. It also acknowledges the limitations of each pillar on its own.
The Additional Protocol has shifted the focus of safeguards policy from the more balanced approach of Comprehensive Safeguards, to an over-emphasis on verification. The principle of “trust and verify” would move the balance back toward a bounded approach to verification activities and an acknowledgement that IAEA inspections should be only one means of assessing the trustworthiness of nations and building confidence in the Nonproliferation Regime.
“Trust and verify” should also be the approach that the P5+1 brings to its round of talks with Iran scheduled for June 18-19 in Moscow. Both pillars will be necessary in order to stabilize the security dilemma in which all parties now find themselves. For Iran, this will mean agreeing to confidence building measures such as additional inspections. Bolstering verification is necessary to compensate for the trust deficit Iran created by carrying out clandestine enrichment activities of questionable legality. However, Iran also has to be able to trust that there is an alternative to US invasion other than through the self-reliance offered by a domestic nuclear arsenal. Focusing exclusively on sanctions as a coercive mechanism is a good way to get Iran to the table, but creating credible security assurance will be the only way to close the deal.

Electromagnetic Print (EMP) is an ambitious new publishing venture based in Coast Salish Territories. The resonance of the short form of the name (EMP – electromagnetic pulse) is deliberate – reflecting an intention to produce works that will “make you stop.” Stop for something profound, something revolutionary, something beautiful.
This writer would like to offer brief comment on the engagement that EMP is taking on with this kind of alternative press. Briefly put, Kerry Coast is embarking on a labor of love, seeking a mode of communication that promises to overcome some of the crippling constraints of capitalism.
In theory, anyone can publish a book. That’s much like saying any ordinary person can write a book. All it takes is pencil and paper. Even with no significant funds required, there remains the substantial matter of learning how to do the work, and developing an adequate level of skill. In both cases, the obvious overwhelming investment is personal time and effort.
While EMP is currently accepting all kinds of submissions and ideas, it is not a publisher-for-hire. EMP is independently owned and operated, unencumbered by obligations to funders of any kind.
As an occasional publisher since 2005 under the Quarter Sheaf imprint, I have produced books with no financial involvements beyond computer hardware, one piece of software, manuals for the software, and an internet connection. It is now possible to do this sort of work with absolute zero money through a facility like the Digital Inspiration Lab at Vancouver Public Library.
EMP’s first titles show especially strong connection to Indigenous cultural and political struggle. Perhaps the most striking announcement in the catalogue is for Wolverine’s Sovereignty: Collected Essential Truths. Publication is projected for Fall 2017 and control of the publication will remain with his family, proceeds will go them, their farm and home. Wolverine (William Jones Ignace), a key figure in the 1995 Gustafsen Lake standoff, died at age 82 in March 2016.
The first book to launch from EMP in 2017 will be Freedom in East Vancouver: the Photography and Writing of Alan Fossen, on 19 March at 7:00 pm at Cafe Deux Soleils on Commercial Drive in Vancouver.
In his early seventies, photographer and writer Alan Fossen hails from the Kootenays and has lived in BC all his life. Resident in the Commercial Drive area of East Vancouver since the 1970s, he had long association with the radical La Quena co-op coffeehouse of the 1980s and 90s.
The main content of his book is 162 images spread across 190 pages. Some two-page spreads consist of a single photograph with no margins. Printed on heavy-stock low-gloss paper, colors leap from the page. A book size of 11 x 8.5 inches provides generous gallery space. Certain types of images recur. Human faces and graffiti seem to account for well over half of the photographs. No image is accompanied by a caption. The main source of orientation is the context provided by eleven section headings.
The foreword by Kerry Coast announces the setting of Vancouver in the 1990s. The final “Postcards” section includes a selection where postmarks from that decade can be spotted on reproduced postcards.
Fossen’s eight short essays appear under the following section headings: Fascism, Criminalization of the Poor, Holocaust, Marlene Maria Lucille Crazybull Vielle, Racism, Best Explanation of the Cold War, Politics of Food, and La Quena. The life story of Vielle stands out for its empathy and humanity.
The reflections on La Quena start with mention of Chilean refugees who fled the Pinochet regime in the early 1970s. Their activism is reported as the impetus for the creation of the venue. Latin American struggles in Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Chiapas also came into play. On the home front, the Gustafsen Lake standoff loomed large. Fossen touches on the aspects La Quena as a place that served as forum, informal classroom for political education, and anti-hierarchical workspace. His brief but honest account ends with mention of some of the internal activist tendencies and problems that led to the demise of La Quena.
As a record of place and time, two images might serve as bookends for the period depicted in the photographs. At the older end, a fading stenciled graffiti on a yellow brick wall proclaims: Boycott Expo – See Through Their Lies. The smaller and longer phrase has become almost unreadable. At the newer end, a double-page interior view of La Quena captures a scene that vanished at the turn into the third millennium. Google research today provides only a few hints about the lifespan and demise of that significant social space. The positioning of the La Quena section at the end of the book creates a mood of times that already seem long ago.
Fossen’s book and seven forthcoming titles are listed at www.electromagneticprint.com and in a twenty-page catalogue for 2017.

UNDER VGM RULES EVERY LOADED CONTAINER MUST HAVE A CERTIFIED WEIGHT: The purpose is to exclude overweight shipments and to facilitate stowage plans.
Lack of enforcement of VGM rules could jeopardize the safety of ships and workers.
Governments are more focused on other regulatory issues and don’t have the resources to enforce SOLAS.
The agency implementing the IMO rules is often not the same department charged with enforcement.
Government authorities around the world may be ill-equipped to enforce Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Verified Gross Mass (VGM) rules.
That’s the conclusion of a new report from TT Club, a provider of insurance and related risk management services.
That situation could jeopardize the safety of ships and workers on board vessels and ashore when handling container cargo.
Under the VGM rules, which went into effect July 1, 2016, every container to be loaded on a vessel must have a certified weight. The purpose of the rule is to prevent overweight shipments from being loaded and to facilitate stowage plans.
According to the TT Club paper, governments are more focused on other regulatory issues and/or don’t have the resources to support the SOLAS regulations.
According to the report’s author, in many cases the agency implementing the IMO rules is not the same department enforcing the measure.
TT Club is partnering with Global Shippers Forum, ICHCA International, and the World Shipping Council to promote awareness and implementation of the CTU Code, a non-mandatory global code of practice for the handling and packing of cargo for transportation by sea and land.

New Server Warhaven [pvp/rp] This is a PVP server with some boosts. Including xp boost, taming speed boost, and harvest boost. This PVP server is also an RP server and requires RP before PVP. It is simple. We want to build a strong community in which the players are friends and PVP not just to be jerks or tick other people off. So here are our rules.
1: No offline raiding. Players must be on when you raid.
2: RP before a raid. Example: Thordon a dwarf lands on the property of an Elf; Lixnir, who has moved into dwarf territory. He gives Lixnir 24 hours to leave the said property or be wiped off the face of the planet. (Of course this would be roleplayed) After the role play it is mentioned in world chat that there was an ultimatum between the two. Now in 24 hours if Lixnir is still there he can expect he is going to be raided so hopefully he brought backup. (We want our players to raid and have fun with PVP but it is no fun if when you log in every day you have to retame and rebuild your house.
3: World text chat is always Out of Character.
5: Have fun and be courteous.
Come in and meet the admins.
Come play where lag is not an issue and where desyncing is not a problem.
