» WHO's Chief in China Steps Down

Hat-tip, aurora! WHO's Chief in China Steps Down By NICHOLAS ZAMISKA August 15, 2007 HONG KONG -- The World Health Organization's chief representative in China, Henk Bekedam, is stepping down from his post after five years on the job, despite calls from Chinese health officials for him to stay on longer. Hans Troedsson, the WHO's representative in Vietnam, will succeed the 49-year-old Dr. Bekedam, a native of the Netherlands. Dr. Bekedam said the shift was part of a normal rotation at the WHO. Next week, he is expected to start his new job as director of health-sector development for the WHO's Western Pacific regional office in Manila, reporting to Shigeru Omi, the regional director. During Dr. Bekedam's tenure, the WHO's r...... - 2009-07-03

» Surpressing scan of .pdf files

I have a slew of large (apx. 2 MB) pdf files that contain mostly imagery. Each .pdf file has an associated .desc file that I use to index the content of the files. I would like the Zoom spider to ignore scanning the .pdf files themselves. This would greatly increase my speed of index generation. It would be great if you could develop a Meta Tag for use in the .desc file that would tell the spider to not bother downloading or scanning the .pdf when the Meta Tag so directs. e.g.: We agree that this can be useful. We plan on adding support for meta robots tags in V5.0 so this would allow you to specify the ignore parameter. However, for PDF and .desc files, this would require an additional change to the way Zoom behaves at the m...... - 2009-07-03

» Comparing airlines

Ok, I´m not sure if I´m placing this to the right place, but I´m asking your opinion: I´ve had two offers for flight tickets between Helsinki and Osaka (KIX), they´re both for over 3 months (->=six months tickets). The first one is from Lufthansa and the price is about 935 euros. The another one is from Japan Air Lines, and the price is about 1150 euros. Which one would you recommend and why? I´ve had experience with Lufthansa, but not with JAL. I just checked their webpages and it seems like JAL has excellent service, the seats look very comfortable etc, but is it true or does it make that big of a difference? I didn´t like Lufthansa that much the last time, but I guess it´s ok. I´m just thinking that maybe I should "invest on ...... - 2009-07-03

Example Zayd. Why slavery is permitted given that GOD created human as equal being and not as Master and slaveNot sure about Muhammad. But, Jesus Christ did not have slaves. He had disciples which were His followers. Jesus came as a Humble King and Servant to show the world His love for us.Slavery in Islam When Islam was reveled to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), slavery was a worldwide common social phenomenon; it was much older than Islam. Slavery was deeply rooted in every society to the extent that it was impossible to imagine a civilized society without slaves. In spite of this social fact, Islam was the first religion to recognize slavery as a social illness that needed to be addressed. Since slavery was deeply rooted in t...... - 2009-07-03

England should be a force to be reckoned with in World Soccer in the coming years, with the emerging talent that they have. That said, throwing a bunch of youngsters in the deep end may not pay off. I think it would be more successful if he was to bring them in gradually, so they can learn from the experienced players - Sol Campbell, Paul Scholes, David Beckham, etc. Having raw talent is one thing (which the "Vision of the Future Squad" has) but coupling that talent with a cool head and experience is a totally different issue.This is great.

Hi, I recently bought flash cards in an attempt to learn more kanji because I really don't know that many. So I bought Tuttle Kanji Cards Vol. 1. My question is: on the back of the cards there are the two pronounciations of the kanji - the kun'yomi and on'yomi. I know the kun'yomi are the Japanese readings, so should I just be learning these, or should I learn the on'yomi as well? The on'yomi for kanji all seem so similar, I tried remembering some but they just don't stick as easily as the kun'yomi that i'm used to relating to those kanji. Thanks for any advice :-)You will need to learn them both. Normally when a kanji is by itself, used in a name　or incorporates okurigana, it uses the くんよみ reading...... - 2009-07-03

Attn: pafalafa-ga Meredith Hunter was the young black man stabbed and killed by the Hells Angels at the Altamont concert December 6, 1969. He was from Oakland I believe. I have almost no biographical information about him. I recently - within last year and a half - saw an article about him I believe it was from the London Times or perhaps Sunday Times. Could have been the Observer. Anyway I can't find it. I'm looking for anything about him. Also Mick Jagger gave a depopsition to I believe an Oakland Court. I was told the transcript was n the internet. I cannot find it. That would probably have been in 1970. I'm doing a book on the 1969 Rolling Stones US tour of which I was a member.....

» Typhoon Mitag (Philippines)

Typhoon Mitag (Philippines) Typhoon Mitag is currently a CAT2 storm heading directly towards the Philippines main Island. However GFS indicates that this storm will reach CAT4 strength before landfall on Sunday. Right now I do not question the intensity forecast as environmental conditions seem to be almost ideal – (this is not in a sheared environment) and SST are 29c or above along the projected track. Landfall, I predict will be CAT3 due to interaction with landmasses etc Ether way I am regarding this as a “Chaseable” storm and so I plan to intercept this one (along with Roger Hill) using the same approach that we used for Typhoon Krosa during October in Taiwan. This will be an interesting intercept in so far as the time scales are ...... - 2009-07-03

» Not the Doppler Effect

When I was a commissioning engineer I adjusted the frequency of transmitter 'A' (about 140 MHz) using an accurate frequency meter. Then I drove to transmitter 'B' (about 30 miles away) where I adjusted the frequency to be the same as transmitter 'A' (to within a few Hertz). Then I jumped into the car and headed back towards transmitter 'A'. In the car was a receiver tuned to the same frequency. I turned-on the receiver and was surprised to hear a howling beat frequency. The faster I drove, the higher the pitch. When I slowed-down the pitch reduced, becoming inaudible when I was stationary. How can this effect be explained ? It cannot be the Doppler Effect because Mr. Doppler made all his...... - 2009-07-03

thank you !thank you !thank you !thank you !thank you !thank you !thank you !John Locke (1632-1704) was an English philosopher and a major influence upon the Founding Fathers. A founder of British empiricism with an unabashed faith in the natural sciences and the rising middle class, Locke embodied the principles of the Enlightenment. In his Essay Concerning Human Understanding (1690), Locke rejected the notion of innate ideas and instead argued that everyone begins with a tabula rasa, or blank slate, and is shaped by his or her environment. This was a concept with radically equalizing implications. Locke therefore rejected Thomas Hobbes's theory that kings rule by divine right; how could they, if everyone was born equal?

Nichiren Buddhists believe it is possible to attain enlightenment in a single lifetime through practice of "True Buddhism" (i.e., Nichiren). Nichiren Buddhism has divided into several branches, the largest of which are Nichiren Shu, Nichiren Shoshu, and Soka Gokkai International.

» What flash?

I have worked with natural light only and now want to expand and purchase a nice flash. I shoot portraits and am getting into weddings. I actually have a wedding coming up in a few months and want to get the flash and have it figured out before then. Any suggestions for me?Question cannot be answered without knowing what camera system you shoot with...And how much can you spend?Sorry I didn't include my camera info earlier. Canon 30D 17-85mm 50mm I can spend up to $1000. I don't want to spend that much though. I love using natural light but I need a back-up, especially for the wedding. I am debating between the newest Canon 430 and 580 speedlights. I just don't know which one will be best for me. I don't want to regret buying th...... - 2009-07-03

» Anyone had a courthouse wedding and what was it like?

Every "Court House" is different so here's some general information You may have to make an appointment for a date and time. Do not assume you can just walk in and get married. Call the Marriage License Bureau for information. You may or may not be permitted to bring friends or relatives. It depends on the space available. Wedding ceremonies are conducted in hallways or in the Judge's office or in the Judge's chambers or in a courtroom or in the Clerk's office. You will have to ask permission about taking photographs. Remember you are in a government building, and cameras may not be permitted. There may be other couples waiting in line in front of you and/or behind you. You will see Brides and Grooms i...... - 2009-07-03

» Learn Japanese

I found a very good website, which some of you might already know about, called "The Guide to Japanese". www.guidetojapanese.org Yeah... If you can't get lessons or books, look over this, for it will be a very good help :-) Umm, it basically teaches you Japanese grammer-wise. In the exercises, there are some vocabulary, but not much. I would say, this is a website just for grammer :-) -Tommyhey cool, thank you for this. It's pretty helpful, I've seen alot of sites around. Though, I still think that a teacher is the best way to go, even sites with pronounciation are difficult to learn from. either way. Thank you greatly for the site. jya nya!Wow. O.o That is a big site. Thanks Tomii :-)I use this site to learn grammar and ...... - 2009-07-03

» 500/1000mm lens for $129 - Too good to be true?

I found this Phoenix 500mm/1000mm Telephoto Lens at eBay for only $129: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2967037521&category=48556 Does anyone have any comments about such a lens? I'm sure it's not the most well built lens ever made, but for $129 to get 500mm and even double to 1000mm with the 2x telconverter! It seems like it would be worth a try anyway. It says it has a 33' minimum focusing distance. Does anyone know if the focusing distance would change (probably double to 66') with the 2x teleconverter attached? OK - now give me the bad news.I dont' know about this lens but I saw it on Ebay today too. I thought about giving it a try but I am not sure yet. It is a slow lens and it is being sold by a reputab...... - 2009-07-03
