Coal mine explosion in Russia kills 5 rescuers, no survivors among 26 miners trapped underground

A new explosion has rocked a coalmine in Vorkuta, northern Russia, killing five rescuers and one miner. The blast occurred during efforts to rescue workers trapped underground after the first blast at the mine earlier this week.

Five people have been reported injured as a result of the explosion. Three of them have been receiving treatment in the hospital: two are in a state of medium severity, one is considered to be slightly injured.

The Emergencies Ministry has officially confirmed that none of the 26 miners whom the rescuers were trying to save from the first blast had survived.

That brings the total death toll from the two explosions to 36 people. The first blast happened on Thursday. Four people were killed immediately and the rescue operation for those trapped started.

Coalmine rescuers were operating at a normal safety distance, but the blast affected them even there, Tatiana Bushkova, spokesman for JSC Vorkutaugol, operator of the Severnaya coal mine, told TASS. А hoisting engineer was killed by the explosion that spread across the workings, she added.He was supplying materials to the site of the rescue works.

Since Thursday, 80 miners were evacuated from the mine. It was reported that 550 people and 80 pieces of equipment were involved in the rescue effort. The mine’s location, above the Arctic Circle, made the operation extremely difficult.

Emergency services have warned that possibility of another underground blast remains because of the high levels of methane in the mine.

The technical committee has announced it would localize the incident by isolating the site of the explosion, head of Vorkutaugol Denis Paykin told journalists. This isolation method will allow authorities to extinguish the fire and put the mine back into operation relatively quickly. It involves pumping nitrogen into the mine. The isolation works are expected to be carried out within a day.

Three days of mourning have been announced in the Komi Republic for the victims of the disaster. Cultural institutions, as well as radio and TV companies, have been recommended to cancel entertainment events and programs in the days of mourning, the government of the northern Russian republic has said in an order. Local government officials and the administration of the city of Vorkuta have been ordered to take all necessary measures to assist the families of the victims.

The stricken Severnaya coal mine belongs to Vorkuta, an integral part of the industrial giant Severstal.

Honda City from Dongfeng-Honda in China (Photos)

Honda City from China’s Dongfeng-Honda revealed in new photos

Exclusive to China, Honda Greiz has been officially revealed in 14 new images. Based on new Honda City, which made its global debut in India in November 2013, Honda Greiz is manufactured by Dongfeng-Honda, a JV between Chinese company Dongfeng and Honda Motors.

To be priced slightly above existing Honda City, which is also on sale in China, Honda Greiz looks more premium and sporty. In China, it will compete with existing City, which is manufactured by Guangzhou-Honda, a JV between Guangzhou and Honda.

Speaking about new Honda Greiz, it gets a redesigned exterior. In the front it gets a more sculpted bonnet, flowing into front bumper. Headlight design remains same, but gets projector headlamps with LED DRL and LED turn indicator. Replacing the chrome grille in front is a thick glossy slat in piano black. In centre is the Honda logo.

Honda Greiz (redesigned City) in China.

Underlining this is a thin chrome lining, which separates the headlight / grille from lower bumper. Though housing circular fog lights, lower bumper is completely different on board the Greiz.

On its side, wheel arches look more pronounced. Between the two wheels, sharper body lines give Greiz a flowing look. New alloys add to its sporty character. Rear features redesigned LED taillights, bootlip, a wider chrome slat and a redesigned lower bumper.

Unlike its exteriors, which feature prominent changes as compared to City, the interiors of Greiz are similar to City. Power to Honda Greiz comes from Honda’s 1.5 liter iVTEC petrol engine generating 131 hp. This engine is mated to a CVT gearbox.

Help Meg Fight Cancer

One of the longest regulars at SaabsUnited is Meg Haviland, part of the team at Beck Saab in Yonkers, New York. Meg is taking part in her first Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk in two weeks, and is trying her best to make a difference against this disease. Just as we’ve done before, we’d like to extend the reach of this blog to the rest of the world and hope that the compassionate Saab community can help her make a difference with a small donation.

Meg's 900 Convertible (with signature from Victor Muller in the engine compartment!)

Sometimes we see calls for donations and think to ourselves, “Hmm, another cause…” but I have to say, I can personally vouch that the American Cancer Society is one of the most concrete and results based charity on the planet. Every year, they make incredible strides by funding alternative research projects and saving lives through early detection techniques at wiping out cancer. Please consider helping Meg make strides on her walk to raise money to end cancer too.

Click here to be taken to Meg’s Donation Page.

Right after I type this I’m going to Meg’s donation page. But I’m using this opportunity to thank the Saab community and Saabs United in particular for contributing about 1/4 of the $9,500 I was able to raise for the Dana Farber Cancer Institute this summer by sponsoring my PMC 200 mile bike ride. We raised 34 million dollars to fund research on new cancer treatments. Not bad for a bunch of folks out for a weekend bike ride. Meg was one my earlist supporters from the Saab community. As a recent cancer survivor (1 year clear in two weeks!)… Read more »

Thanks Coggs 🙂
You are fast!!!! Must have been in turbo mode! Saab Turbo that is:)

personally, I’m tired of hearing of breast cancer. tired! What about Lou Gehrig’s disease! What about Prostate Cancer!

I sort of agree with you that other types needs to be lifted up as well, but that is not going to happen unless someone actually does it! And it needs to be someone who is devoted enough to spend a lot of time and money on trying to promote a foundation for it…

If anyone does, I can promise you we’ll bring it up! because it is that important!

Meg has to be one of the nicest people I know and I value her friendship. Without a doubt she is for sure a die hard Saab fan. Most of you remember the story about my first Saabs @ Carlisle earlier this summer. Well, Meg is one of the many people who made the show so very enjoyable. I will be making a contribution also.

Good day today. My P1110 error code just cost me $30 for couple of new vacuum hoses, so there’s a couple of bucks left for Meg’s good cause. Come on guys/gals, you’ll just have to frequent Starbucks a bit less this month.

meg haviland
Thanks everyone to those that have made donations. Some may be tired of hearing about Breast Cancer, but I can count at least 7 women I know who have been affected who live close by. What about those that don’t tell? Multiply that by by everyone who’s on this forum and the numbers are staggering. Then figure all the other types of Cancer that affect others….my number is even higher. So no matter what type of disease we are talking about, every little bit helps that goes to research to help find a cure and keep a heart beating longer… Read more »

Media Release: Hunt of lions from Kruger National Park advert hogwash

27 January 2014

This according to KNP Managing Executive, Mr. Abe Sibiya, who said, Kruger National Park would like to distance itself from the advertisement and its author/s… “as there is no link between KNP and those that are involved with this hunting activity. KNP do not remove problematic lions from the KNP to be hunted elsewhere.”

He said  in actual fact there has been a concerning trend in recent times where certain individuals have fraudulently attached Kruger National Parks name and those of key employees in unscrupulous hunting business ventures  all in an effort to attract unsuspecting clients. “A case in point is a fraudulent letter bearing the forged signatures of some of the key management personnel in the park authorizing a hunt within the Makuya Game Reserve in Limpopo managed by the provincial government.”

According to Sibiya the circumstance surrounding this incident are being investigated by the SANParks Environmental Crime Investigations… “and legal advice is also being sought on how to pursue criminal charges against the perpetrators.

Interview: Cramer Says President Obama Has Used Sandy Hook Shooting For Gun Control Agenda

Rep. Kevin Cramer was in North Dakota this weekend and announced his plans for a round table discussion about gun rights. It will be a part of a series of forums on American issues, and will be held on February 22nd in Fargo.

Cramer says he’s putting this discussion together in North Dakota because he’s dissatisfied with how the issue is being handled in Washington DC. “What we don’t need is an emotional response, a knee jerk response, from people trying to use this tragedy,” Cramer told me. “Unfortunately the President has done exactly what I hoped he wouldn’t do, which is use the tragedy.”

Last week President Obama announced his gun control agenda, and signed 23 executive orders aimed at gun control. Cramer wasn’t impressed with the president’s proposals. “If they’re 23 such great ideas, why did it take him over four years to come up with them?” Speaking about President Obama’s entire list of proposals, both executive orders and policy proposals for Congress (all stemming from what Cramer described as Vice President Joe Biden’s “phony round table”), the Congressman says he sees little to like. “Let’s have a thorough discussion not just about guns and clips and what we call a particular weapon, but rather let’s have comprehensive discussion on the issue.”

“I think the President hasn’t been helpful in this discussion,” Cramer told me.

I also asked Rep. Cramer a few questions about fiscal matters. Asked if he supports the plan being reported in the media to authorize a 3-month increase in the debt ceiling so that the Senate can pass a budget, Cramer said he’s “inclined to go along with it” but that he doesn’t think the idea will go anywhere.

“I don’t think we’re going to raise the debt ceiling for three months because I have a hard time believing Harry Reid is going to pass a budget,” he said.

Here’s the audio:

Rob Port is the editor of, a columnist for the Forum News Service, and the host of the Rob (Re)Port on Fargo-based WDAY AM970 from 1-2pm weekdays.

According to a recent Consumer Reports poll, facing soaring gasoline prices, American car buyers definitely want more fuel-efficient vehicles but may not be ready to give up size, range, performance or other amenities to achieve that goal.

The Auto Pulse survey, conducted by the Consumer Reports National Research Center, polled a nationally representative sample of 1,804 people via telephone April 26-30, regarding issues concerning gas prices and trade-offs they might be considering. Participants had to live in a household that owned at least one vehicle.

The survey came just three weeks before the national average gas price spiked to a record $3.22 per gallon of regular unleaded gas on May 21. That is $.326 more than at the same time last year, and nearly as high, after adjusting for inflation, as the all-time record set in March 1981.

Even before the surge, gas prices were already on the mind of the roughly one-in-five respondents who planned to purchase a new car during the coming year.

Among that group, nearly seven in 10 said they would seek a vehicle with better fuel economy than their current model. Nearly half would consider a diesel, hybrid or flex-fuel vehicle (the latter can run on gasoline, E85 or any gasoline-ethanol blend), whereas only one in nine primarily drive such cars now.

Car buyers were wary, though, when asked what they would be willing to sacrifice in order to achieve higher miles per gallon. A bare majority (52%) said they would give up vehicle size or capacity. Somewhat fewer would trade off range (49%), performance (48%) or amenities (44%).

Forty-two percent said they would be willing to pay more for a fuel-efficient car, and 31% would pay more for special fuel.

The answers reflect the challenge consumers face in a market filled with large, gas-guzzling vehicles where buyers seeking to improve fuel economy often must pay extra-typically about $3,000-$4,000 more for a hybrid model as compared to a similar conventional vehicle. Selection is also limited; survey respondents in the market for a car but who aren't considering a hybrid said selection and price were the main reasons.

Indeed, the survey revealed a desire to be environmentally responsible. Among all car-owning respondents, some 60% said they were either concerned or very concerned about the environment versus only 6% who said they were not concerned. Nearly three-quarters said they would drive more slowly, or even drive less, to conserve gas because of high gasoline prices.

But consumers also said gas prices would have to go even higher before they would make major changes in behavior. On average, car owners said prices would have to rise to $3.90 per gallon before they would "drastically" reduce their driving. The survey found that drivers in the West and those with incomes of $75,000 or more would resist gas prices longer; for them, it would take a price of $4.50 per gallon to spur dramatic change. Older people and those with incomes under $40,000 were more vulnerable; the majority said they would make drastic cutbacks in driving at an average price of only $3.50.

As consumers are faced with higher gas prices, they shift towards buying vehicles that will help save them money at the pumps. However, SEMA research finds that enthusiasts continue to spend money on specialty equipment in times of fluctuating gasoline prices even though vehicle preferences change.

View Full Version : MVC Master/Detail & delegates

24 Apr 2012, 4:15 PM
I'm converting an iOS application to Sencha and was wondering if there are any examples of a fairly typical pattern from iOS in Sencha. The pattern is delegation.

The master view passes a piece of information and sets itself as the delegate for events on the detail view. Typical example is a row on a list is clicked and the detail view you edit the info. When done editing, the detail view calls a Done method on the master and "passes" the information back async.

Is there an example of how to do this in Sencha? I'm using the Architect, so focussing on using MVC like code as far as possible. Any help would be great.

26 Apr 2012, 7:31 AM
The view shouldn't set itself to listen for events, the controller should do this.

Summary: If we do not know the Jesus of the Bible then we do not know what to expect from him today, Let’s find out who he was and we’ll know who he is.

Heb 13:8

The same in Love (Jesus personified the Love of God)

Joh 15:12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

Joh 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

1Jo 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

This is not only speaking of Jesus dying on the Cross, This is speaking of how he lived not for himself but for others, (he came not to be ministered unto but to minister and to give his life a ransom for many).

The same in Mercy: Jn 8:10-11 When they brought a woman to Jesus taken in adultery. Jesus asked these words of her. (hath no man condemned thee)?

11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

The same in Compassion:

Mt 14:14 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.

Heb 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

Mr 6:34 And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.

The same in Hatred of dead Religion:

Mt 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.

Mt 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

Mt 23:25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.

Mt 23:27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.

The same in his Hatred for sickness and disease: (Jesus was a man at war with Satan)

Ps 139:22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

Jesus counted demons and sickness and disease as enemies and destroyed them every time he came into contact with them.

The bible directly links sickness and disease with the works of Satan.

(Acts 10:38) How God anointed Jesus Christ of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with Power who went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed of the devil for God was with him.

The same in Purpose: = (a) Lu 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. –(b) 1Jn 3:8 To destroy the works of the devil

These are essentially two facets of the same purpose.

Jesus reason for coming is to (1) restore to us everything that adam lost, To accomplish this he must (2) confront and conquer the enemy who holds the souls of men in captivity, Ie. He must deliver us.

GoPro Karma VS. DJI Mavic | Side-By-Side Infographic Helps You See Which Is Best

October 13th 2016 3:06 PM

When you step back and look at where drones were two years ago, then just a month or so ago, and then you look at what we have now with the DJI Mavic and GoPro Karma, you can’t help but arrive at the conclusion that the drone market is evolving at an astonishing rate, making the evolutionary rate of regular cameras seem almost geological by comparison.

The future of drones seems bright, and amongst a market that’s becoming more flooded with options, perhaps none are as representative of our society of ability, portability, and convenience than the Mavic and the Karma.  Each of them is an appetizing cocktail of performance, small form factor, and price, but really which of the two is the right drone for you? One of them surely is, and perhaps seeing this side-by-side infographic put together by MediaKix is just the ticket you need to figure out which one to put on your Christmas list.

[REWIND: Don’t Be Fooled By Casey Neistat’s Drone Test | The DJI Mavic’s Footage Was Misleading]

Let us know which is your pick after the evaluation. You can get your GoPro Karma here, and the DJI Mavic here.

Note: You can download the image or open in a new window to get a larger view

Once more, we’d love to know which is your pick after the evaluation. You can get your GoPro Karma here, and the DJI Mavic here

Thanks for MediaKix for this, and you can check out more from them on their site.

With a passion for beauty and aviation photography his work is all at once focused and eclectic. He is also a tremendous fan of flossing and the happiest guy around when the company’s good.

    I fell in love with Mavic until I saw the video quality. I am a filmmaker and quality wins EVERY TIME. I dont care if it fits on a ring around my finger, the HERO 5 has better video quality. Also, the built in screen is 3 times brighter than the one on my phone, huge selling point.

  2. Taylor Osborn

    Preordered a Mavic last week. I’m already an Inspire 1 owner so it will be a great addition because of the form factor. I hope that the Karma does well also for those already invested in the GoPro ecosystem.

    | |
  3. Kim Bentsen

    None of them will do, because they can’t do 60fps at 4K. It is basically that simple. The Hero5 can do 1440p80, so if I had to choose, then I would choose the Hero5.

Downed D.C. Almost Done
Washington Post, September 29th, 2008 3:15PM
Subscribe to Section 2 Around the Net

It's not just the injuries and the tight schedule that are killing D.C. United. It's also the lackluster play, the poor discipline, the missing confidence and the inability to score. As Steven Goff observes following Sunday's 3-0 defeat at FC Dallas, the regular season, like the team's Concacaf Champions Cup campaign, looks like it has become a "lost cause."

"Sometimes we forget how to play soccer," captain Jaime Moreno told Goff. Moreno knows this more than anyone, given that he was red-carded for elbowing Dallas goalscorer Andre Rocha. Coach Tom Soehn, meanwhile, voiced the despair of a man who has run out of ways to motivate his team. "Obviously everybody knows the importance of this game," Soehn said. "We talked all week and said the right things, but that doesn't mean much when you don't execute. We came out flat. I don't think anyone worked."

As United faces Cruz Azul of Mexico in the Champions League this week, midfielder Santino Quaranta, who was removed from the game before halftime, admitted that "it's hard to stay positive when you keep losing like this. It's not fun. We're trying to figure it out, but we don't know what it is. We are not far out of it, I guess, but what do you do? You just keep going. It's been such a crazy year."

New style august 2013 this simple two part kit converts a 45 gallon drum into a high capacity hopper feeder. Simply grind a series of slots around the base of the drum and dent the top side of each slot, then place the drum on the plastic tray and fill it with feed. The extra large rainguard top hat drops down over the drum, keeping the feed dry and offering some cover to birds. Feeders like these with broad top hats are particularly useful for partridges, which like the cover of a wide rainguard. Please note that a 45 gallon drum is not included with this feed bin kit.

Contact SPence Clarke & Co.

In memory of Neil Williamson and in support of the Motor Neurone Disease Association.

Hello Golfers!

Saturday, 21 June 2014 was a fabulous day, the sun shone, the breeze breezed and 60 or so golfers had a fantastic round at Finca Cortesin. I refer, of course, to the 6th Spence Clarke & Co. Annual Charity Golf Day for Motor Neurone Disease Association.

For all the technical details of the day please go to:

Patrick Jones and his team were the winners with Paul Megran and his team coming in second. Well done teams. A special mention has to go to Patrick, who as usual, donated his fabulous motor boat cruise to our auction, this proved to be an irresistible prize and raised an astounding 1,000 Euro for the Charity - our best auction price of the day! The whole auction was a great success and again, contributors overwhelmed us with their generosity in providing fabulous prizes and also the bidders showed there was no stopping them when it came to such a worthy charitable cause. The Auctioneer, none other than Mr Giles Brown of Talk Radio Europe, played no small part in this, his auctioneering skills were second to none. Thank you Giles!

I have to give a huge thank you to our very own Spence Clarke staff too, who yet again proved their raffling expertise by raising over 1,000 Euros, a record! Also, a thank you to Thomas for producing, with the aid of his driver Danni, some of the best photographs we have ever had! Thank you too, to IT wizard, David Friend, without whom, we would not have such fabulous flyers announcing the golf day!

Huge thanks to Mark Bruce and Shuj Datoo of Golf the Costa, together with Annalisa, for organising another superb event, their effort and commitment to the day, as always, proved invaluable. Mark secured such a good deal with the Club and this afforded many participants to play Finca Cortesin for the first time. Thanks guys, it is always a great pleasure working with you!

Thanks must also go to Carlos and his team at Finca Cortesin, who looked after all the players so well, underlining the reputation Finca Cortesin has for being one of the best courses on the Coast. The course also lived up to its reputation, challenging most players but we rose gallantly to that challenge, well most of us did, my own team’s score will be lightly skipped over but for the curious you can find us at number 14 on the above link!

Due to a number of factors, mainly the sheer number of competing events on the day, our players list was quite a bit less than last year but this seemed to suit the more intimate environment of the Club, the atmosphere throughout was one of great fun and enjoyment. Despite the reduced numbers, the day proved the best ever in terms of funds raised for the Charity and, if all pledges come in (we are awaiting a couple of sponsor pledges to come through as we go to press), the total raised will be an astonishing 12,109.47 Euro!! Words almost fail me.

One of our Sponsors has offered the possibility for us to continue to add to that fund raising total during the next 12 months. Long established Insurance Broker, Op de Beeck & Worth will donate 10% of any commission received on new business throughout the next 12 months which comes from Players who took part at Finca Cortesin. Why not simply contact them on info@opdebeeck-worth.com or 95 288 2273 and let them quote for your insurance requirements in Spain. You don't stand to lose anything, yet you may end up saving some money on your insurance bill as well as providing further support to the Charity!!

Golfingly yours,

Susan J. Spence Clarke

    The Butterfly Collection was inspired not by travels abroad, but by my walks in Hampstead Heath in London with my labrador, Charlie.  I am lucky enough to see the seasons change in the thick trees and open fields from the early morning frosts to the first buds of spring.

    Labrador Inspiration for Stacy Chan Designer Handbag Clutch Bag

    On one occasion, Charlie had just finished a swim in the ponds when, amazingly, a butterfly landed on my foot. I carefully picked it up and it stayed for a minute before continuing on its journey.  When I think of summertime, I think of green fields, sun shining through a canopy of tree branches and the butterflies I saw that day by the pond.

    Butterfly Inspiration for Stacy Chan Designer Handbag Clutch Bag

    Using the intricately designed wings as my inspiration, I paired the golden outline of butterflies with a uniquely patterned cork flecked with gold. The subtle material is complimented with a deep green lining, reminiscent of the green of the heath. These clutches are an ideal accessory to add a bit of luxury to a daytime outfit or a summer’s evening.  See the collection.

Question description

Lars Larsen was your first boss at the medical center. You had
problems from the outset, because of a clash of personalities.

Then things got worse, and you filed a sexual-harassment
complaint. The complaint was not sustained because of lack of specific facts
presented by you (no contemporaneous notes), nor was there any corroboration.
You were moved from your position to an equal one in another department.

Even though you were earnestly trying to get to know the
intricacies of your new job, the manager gave you an inordinate amount of work,
with short turn-around times. You subsequently got a poor evaluation, the first
you had ever received. Following that poor evaluation, carefully documented, you
discovered that your manager was a good friend of Lars.

Over the years, you have been able to put the poor evaluation
behind you, and have been promoted up. In fact, you just received a promotion to
a position for which you and Lars Larsen both competed. In your new position,
you will supervise both Lars and his friend, the manager who gave you the poor

Lars comes into your office and states that he does not believe
you should be the one to evaluate his performance, because of your personality
conflicts of the past, your obvious dislike for him as manifested by the sexual
harassment complaint, and your statements made to co-workers some years previous
concerning the poor evaluation you received at the instigation—you were then
sure—of Lars Larsen.

How would approach the many components of these problems?

Santana Transmogrify Tour 2017

World-class guitar icon Carlos Santana will be heading to Singapore for an one-night only concert as part of Santana Transmogrify Tour 2017 on 4th April 2017, 8PM at Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre. This comeback after his last sell-out show in 2013 sets Singapore as one of his few Asia stops in the lineup of his latest world tour, which will continue on to Australia, New Zealand and Japan for the rest of April.

The multi-Grammy Award winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Carlos Santana, along with his band SANTANA, will be performing passion filled songs from his forty years of career including familiar favourites from Woodstock to Supernatural and beyond. The guitar legend is set to delight fans in Singapore and across the globe with the Santana Transmogrify Tour 2017. With his music being revered as one of the world’s best-known musical signatures, Carlos Santana has been the visionary force behind artistry that surpasses musical genres and tears up generational, cultural and geographical boundaries. Santana’s ever-evolving sound was always ahead of its time in its universal appeal, and today registers as ideally in sync with the 21st century’s pan-cultural landscape.  Santana’s latest release entitled, “Santana IV”, debuted at #5 on Billboard’s Top 200 Chart and marked the fourteenth Top 10 album for the band.

As part of Santana’s dedication to humanitarian outreach and social activism that parallels his lifelong relationship with music, one US dollar from every concert ticket sold will be donated to The Milagro Foundation. Milagro was founded by Santana and his family in 1998 to support underrepresented and disadvantaged youth in arts, education and health.

70 Percent of Independent Drivers Ready to Leave the Industry Because of ELDs

Published: Apr 24, 2014

The results of a new survey shows that a large number of drivers “are threatening to leave the industry if the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s proposed ELD mandate comes to fruition, which could be as early as 2016.”

The survey found that 70 percent of the surveyed independent truckers are prepared to quit their jobs if the proposal is adopted. On top of that, 52 percent of “leased owner-operators and company drivers” will also do it in that scenario.

According to the president of the Transportation Business Associates, it is not clear how firm the respondents’ decision are, but he expects that the move would force some drivers into early retirement. Practice shows that drivers usually become more tolerant of ELDs once they start using them.

The issue, according to some industry experts, is not in the ELDs by themselves, but rather in “the piling-on effect for drivers, with the proposed mandate coming less than a year after restrictive hours rule changes that drivers say hurt their miles and pay.“

Constitution • Gun Rights Demonrats Demand Gun Confiscation, say Universal Background Checks Not

    Democrats Demand Gun Confiscation, say Universal Background Checks Not Enough!

    18 hours ago

    Written by Onan Coca

    The political winds continue to shift, and the Democrat Party seems to be growing ever more confident about their immediate future because they are getting ever more aggressive about infringing on our rights.

    Whether it’s about forcing us into genderless bathrooms, or forcing us to do work we find morally repugnant, or telling us what we can and cannot say (or think), the Democrats are assaulting our freedom on many different fronts. Now they’ve moved back to one of their favorite tyrannical hobbyhorses… the 2nd Amendment.

    The Democrat poster girl for gun violence, former Representative Gabby Giffords (D-AZ) is now busy campaigning across the USA in an effort to push liberal legislators further left on guns. Less than two years after forcing universal background checks on to the citizens of Washington State, Giffords and the Democrat Party are now actively campaigning for new laws that would allow firearm confiscation!

    They can pass all the laws they want with respect to gun confiscation.
    They still have to convince someone to go get all the 300MM+ firearms out there.

    Some of them maybe be easy to confiscate. Others? Well, the price will be high. Probably higher than the body of collectors could pay and you know darn well it won't be the politicians nor their children going to get the guns.

    I'm sure that there are loads of guns still available in the UK and Oz after they banned them for common folk. Yep, they outlaw guns and only the criminals will have them.

    Prohibition works great.

    Wouldn't bet on it.
    There are a number of things we thought we'd never see, like boys allowed in girl's bathrooms.
    All we need is a Paris style attack, or one more leftist SCOTUS justice and legal gun ownership is gone.

    History does not repeat, but it sure rhymes. Hitler disarmed the German people and said that the state would protect them and the Gestapo started as a highly organized neighborhood watch. That worked out real well for the gypsies, communists, Jews, mental ill, disable, etc in the short run and everyone else in the long run. God protect us from anyone who knows just what needs to be done and has the power to see that it is done. The dangers come from the left, right, ISIS, terrorists, other states, other religions and so on. While guns will not protect you, they make the cost of oppressing you so high that it isn't worth doing. Swiss and Swedes come to mind, neither nation can defeat any major power, but the cost of controlling the country, and what you will have left too control, makes it not worth the effort. The issue of gun control isn't the guns, its the control, and every nation that has been conquered, either through internal or external forces, always ends up and often starts with gun control. We are facing a full court press to destroy our way of life and our society, I have no real idea way.

    Hi! I have a pair of new Seymour Duncan SJB3/SJP3 pickups for my Jaguar Bass. Which is the right height to the strings??

    That all depends on your playing style. Some put their pickups as close to the strings as physically possible because they play lightly, some put them farther away because they like to dig in hard. I use the guidelines in this setup guide from Fender:

    And then I might slightly tweak it to get the string balance right. Always works for me.

Omtale A Shred of Evidence
"She had been in school uniform the first and last time Judy had seen her alive, and she had wondered what it would be like to be her mother. Now, she thanked God she wasn't." Detective Inspector Judy Hill had seen the girl that evening, talking and laughing with friends on the bus home. Now she lay dead in the glaring arc-light of a scene-of-crime investigation; beaten, strangled, and possibly raped. Oakland School is Stansfield come sunder a no less glaring spotlight as Judy and Detective Chief Inspector Lloyd begin their investigation into the murder of Natalia Ouspensky, aged fifteen, on a piece of open parkland in the centre of town. It is an enquiry which will uncover the secrets of staff and pupil alike, not least Natalia herself; and enquiry which will produce suspects and motives but to no witnesses; an enquiry which will deeply affect the lives of the innocent, but might well fail to convict the guilty. An enquiry, it seems, which is not going to yield a single shred of evidence ...

Omtale Calculus for Scientists and Engineers
For a three-semester or four-quarter calculus course covering single variable and multivariable calculus for mathematics, engineering, and science majors. Briggs/Cochran is the most successful new calculus series published in the last two decades. The authors' decades of teaching experience resulted in a text that reflects how students generally use a textbook-i.e., they start in the exercises and refer back to the narrative for help as needed. The text therefore builds from a foundation of meticulously crafted exercise sets, then draws students into the narrative through writing that reflects the voice of the instructor, examples that are stepped out and thoughtfully annotated, and figures that are designed to teach rather than simply supplement the narrative. The authors appeal to students' geometric intuition to introduce fundamental concepts, laying a foundation for the rigorous development that follows. To further support student learning, the MyMathLab course features an eBook with 700 Interactive Figures that can be manipulated to shed light on key concepts.
In addition, the Instructor's Resource Guide and Test Bank features quizzes, test items, lecture support, guided projects, and more. This book is an expanded version of Calculus: Early Transcendentalsby the same authors, with an entire chapter devoted to differential equations, additional sections on other topics, and additional exercises in most sections. See the "Features" section for more details.

Omtale Inflation-Proof Your Portfolio
The must-have guide on how to protect yourself during the coming age of hyperinflation The Petersen/Pew Commission on Budget Reform recently warned that the national debt was expected to grow from 40 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP) in 2009 to 85 percent in 8 years, 100 percent in 12 years, and 200 percent by 2038. In other words, in just a few years the U.S. will owe twice as much as it produces. Since no conceivable level of taxes and borrowing will enable the country to service such an enormous debt, it is inevitable that government will turn to the same tricks its antecedents have been playing since Ancient Rome: debasing the dollar and letting inflation run rampant. Inflation-Proof Your Portfolio: Protect Your Money from the Coming Government Hyperinflation is your guide to understanding the debt crisis and rising inflation, packed with the key tools you need to protect yourself from the fallout.
* Neither an economic treatise nor a collection of specific investment advice, the book is intended as a resource to help empower citizens to take action to protect their money from the coming government-induced hyperinflation * Essential reading for individual investors and general business readers alike who want to keep their money safe when inflation sets in * A runaway self-publishing hit, this new edition is fully revised and updated * Get the information you need to formulate your own plan of action to protect your investments The U.S. dollar is almost certain to have a sustained run of extremely high inflation over the next decade because of continued huge government deficits and unfunded liabilities, and this book is the resource you need to be ready.

The role of sulfur on Mars.

Several bits of evidence, including the composition of meteorites that apparently have fallen to Earth from Mars, hint that the Martian interior may contain relatively high concentrations of sulfur. Heinrich Wanke of the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry in Mainz, Germany, says the high sulfur content could have influenced the evolution of the Red Planet in some intriguing ways.

He suggests that as iron sulfide and water vapor rose to the surface during volcanic eruptions, the sulfide would have reacted with the vapor to form sulfur dioxide, depleting the planet's underground water supply. Wanke thus suggests that the water that may once have flowed on the Martian surface probably originated at shallow depths rather than nearer the planet's core.

He also notes that liquid sulfur dioxide might have carved some of the channels that scar the face of Mars and that are sometimes attributed exclusively to erosion by water. Sulfur dioxide in the Martian atmosphere may also have acted as a greenhouse gas, warming frozen water on the planet's surface so that it could carve the channels, Wanke adds.

Boris Johnson can usually assume he's the main attraction of any event for which he chooses to turn up. Not today, he wasn't, not in the Empress Ballroom inside Blackpool's Winter gardens. He may have got most applause, but he wasn't the star turn.

When the Tories debated urban policy the MP for Henley and Conservative candidate for London mayor, was in head-to-head competition with Michael Heseltine. The former darling of the conference and ex-MP for Henley can still show the kids how to do it. What's more he's another of those rare creatures, a natural blonde in show business. As Simon Hoggart puts it the session was a symbolic moment, the transfer of the blonde mop of state to the younger man.

If that wasn't enough to get Boris to raise his game, there was also a video appearance from Arnie Schwarzenegger, who is turning out to be a shrewd governor of California, and one (in the flesh) from Michael Bloomberg, mayor of New York.

Hezza was pretty good. Even at 74 he fizzes with ideas, mostly familiar themes from his past like elected city mayors. He's done it all, made a great fortune off his own wits and also managed to be deputy prime minister. He has experience.

Boris has none of that, he's learning on the job, not very quickly despite his cleverness. In that respect he could be like Governor Schwarzenegger, who has proved a better politician than his critics predicted. Yesterday the governor's speech was mainly feel-good stuff, but he trumpted his own progressive plans - health care, clean water- and praised David Cameron for ''reviving the Conservative party's green credentials.''

Boris was greeted with hysterical cheers and a standing ovation. He proceeded to make his standard stump speech, attacking ''King Newt'' and ''The Great Newt Fancier'' and outlining Borisian policies - on crime, trees, bicycle theft, community support officers.

As usual he sounded a little demented and what he said didn't stand up to much scrunity. As with a standard Boris article it was feel-good too, fun but not serious. He sounded as if what he was saying was new to him too. Did they cheer again when he finished his eight minute gabble? Yes, of course. Boris is like that, he cheers them up and, anyway, most representatives in the hall probably don't live in London - so no worries there for them.

The surprise was Mayor Bloomberg, like Hezza a self-made media entrepeneur, but on a far larger scale. The Bloomberg news agency is now a major global player. He made some good jokes, self deprecatory ones (''Don't try to be witty or clever, daddy, just be yourself,'' his daughters told him), but there was also some beef.

London and New York are still pre-emminent because ''no other cities offer so much,'' though plenty are trying. The role of government, city and central, rests on two principles:

that it should create the conditions which allow markets to work and economies to grow, but not try to do the job itself; that it should seek to pay its way, not back grandiose projects and expect future generations to pay for it.

''From my experience'' that means a four-pronged approach, he said:

to improve the quality of life for residents and visitors in areas within its control like cleanliness and curbing crime; stick to fiscally responsible policies with balanced budgets and saving for the future, so that when bad times come - they may be imminent, he warned - there are surpluses to fall back on; to invest in projects which will stimulate growth, such as public transport, and diversify the economy; London and New York have been over-dependent on financial services; to provide strong leadership and independent problem-solving which means tough choices when the vested interests told him he couldn't improve New York's schools.
