Toni Morrison, an African-American legend, who has left an indelible mark on the World literary, has died. She left us on Monday night, August 5, 2019, in New York. She was 88 years old.
Toni Morrison, whose work drew deeply from her life, experience, and memories as a Black in America has shared with the world her inspirations in books and novels such as "Song of Solomon", "Beloved", "The Bluest Eye", Sula" and many more.
Toni Morrison was born in Lorain, Ohio, on Feb. 18, 1931, the second of four children in a working-class, African-American family. It is said that her thirst for literary was fueled early on by her ceaseless interest in reading as a child. In 1949, she enrolled at the historically black Howard University and graduated in 1953 with a B.A. in English. In 1955, she earned a Master of Arts from Cornell University. In addition to her career as an editor, she taught at a number of institutions, including Princeton University.
Several personalities and famous peoples praised and payed tribute to the towering novelist on social media and in media networkk.
On Twitter, Former US President Barack Obama said:
"Toni Morrison was a national treasure, as good a storyteller, as captivating, in person as she was on the page. Her writing was a beautiful, meaningful challenge to our conscience and our moral imagination. What a gift to breathe the same air as her, if only for a while."
Her long time friend and fan, Oprah Winfrey wrote, on Instagram:
"In the beginning was the Word. Toni Morrison took the word and turned it into a Song...of Solomon, of Sula, Beloved, Mercy, Paradise Love, and more," Winfrey wrote.
"She was our conscience. Our seer. Our truth-teller. She was a magician with language, who understood the Power of words. She used them to roil us, to wake us, to educate us and help us grapple with our deepest wounds and try to comprehend them."
During her lifetime, Toni Morrison received several honors and awards, including:
2016: PEN/Saul Bellow Award for Achievement in American Fiction
2015: Ivan Sandrof Lifetime Achievement Award
2012: Presidential Medal of Freedom
2004: NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work, Fiction for Love

Listened to 'The Daily': The C.I.A.'s Moral Reckoning by Michael Barbaro from nytimes.com
Gina Haspel, President Trump's pick for C.I.A. director, faced the Senate Intelligence Committee for the first time on Wednesday as her confirmation hearings began. Lawmakers addressed her with an unusual line of questioning: What is your moral character?
On today's episode:
• Matthew Rosenberg joins us from Washington, where he covers intelligence and national security for The New York Times.
Background reading:
• Ms. Haspel defended the C.I.A.'s torture of terrorism suspects after the Sept. 11 attacks, but vowed that she would not start another interrogation program.
• Among the issues raised in the hearing were Ms. Haspel's involvement in a black site in Thailand where Qaeda suspects were tortured, her role in carrying out an order to destroy videotapes of C.I.A. interrogations, and her willingness to defy a president who has supported waterboarding.
We've recently seen the head of the F.B.I. be ousted because he ostensibly wouldn't take a loyalty oath and refused to close an investigation. Could this happen again? Could it be far worse?
They stopped far too short here in opening up questions of harkening back to the Third Reich and Hitler and his government commanding people to commit genocide. We all know there's a line one can't cross and use the defense that "I was commanded to by the authorities."
So the real question is: will Haspel stand up to Trump to prevent moral atrocities which Trump may want to inflict, whether this may extend to areas like torture or, perhaps, far worse?

Our conversation focused on his decision, before his firing, to document his interactions with President Trump in a series of memos — and to eventually share the contents of one of those memos with a journalist, in the hopes of pressuring the Justice Department to appoint a special counsel in the Russia investigation.

Q: What is the word for the different "slots" in a budget? When you set up a budget, you have a new "slot" for each item, right? What do you call such slots? Budget entry? Budget post? Something else entirely?
Note that I'm not talking about the various sums of money you put aside for each item; I just want to know what you call the actual slots/posts/entries in the actual, physical budget. A little bit like we talk about entries in a dictionary, for instance.

A: These are simply called "items", or possibly "categories".
When making accounts, each line in a ledger is an "entry". However, all entries are collated at the end of a financial year and grouped into 'items'. Accounts that detail each kind of income and expenditure, rather than just give a total profit/loss, are called "itemised accounts".
A budget is grouped from the start, because it looks forward to a new financial period just as a set of accounts looks back at one that has passed. Like accounts, a budget can be "itemised". A single figure representing a total amount of money could be called a "budget", but if a document breaks it down into kinds of income and expense, it is an itemised budget.

Spring Migration Notes…By a Murderer
On November 5, 1950, The Field Museum [the Chicago Museum of Natural History at the time] Curator of Mammalogy Colin Sanborn received an extraordinary letter, which began as follows: It wasn't the request itself that was so unusual: individuals (or their descendants) frequently inquired about a specimen donated to the museum. It was the letter's author, in this case, that made it stand out: Nathan Leopold, Jr. Prior to becoming part of the infamous duo Leopold and Loeb, convicted for kidnapping and murdering Bobby Franks, a 14-year-old neighbor, Leopold had been a birder and ornithologist.

The Worcester Country Horticultural Society
In the fall of 1840, in Worcester, Massachusetts, two dozen attendees of the Worcester Agricultural Society's Annual Cattle Show put on a display of local fruits and flowers. The attention it received led to the creation, in 1842, of the Worcester County Horticultural Society (WCHS), the third oldest active society of its kind in the United States. Today, the WCHS is based at Tower Hill Botanic Garden, which it established in 1986.

New in-copyright titles for a new year
The first quarter of 2017 saw 39 in-copyright titles added to BHL, setting the pace for another record-breaking year. New international BHL Members and Affiliates, as well as grant projects like Expanding Access to Biodiversity Literature, have contributed to the growing number of recent titles in the collection, as member libraries continue to chip away at digitizing the legacy literature.
Cataloging the World's Aphids (and Their Relatives!)
In the 1950s, an introduced population of hemlock woolly adelgids (Adelges tsugae), native to Japan, was discovered on the East Coast of the United States. Since its introduction to the US, it has become a major destructive pest that is causing widespread mortality to hemlock trees. A member of the Adelgidae family, Adelges tsugae is closely related to aphids.
Another close relative of the aphids, Daktulosphaira vitifoliae, has also caused extensive damage as a destructive pest. The grape phylloxeran (D. vitifoliae), originally native to eastern North America, feeds on the roots of Vitis vinifera grapes, stunting the growth of or killing its vines.

Notes from William Brewster: The Evolving Field of Zoology
As a part of the Field Notes Project, the Ernst Mayr Library is digitizing the journals, correspondences and photographs of William Brewster (1851-1919), a self-trained ornithologist and specimen curator at Harvard's Museum of Comparative Zoology (MCZ), the first president of the Massachusetts Audubon Society, and a co-founder and president of the American Ornithologists' Union. Brewster recorded a lifetime of observations on wildlife and plants, changing landscapes, and daily weather, making his notes a valuable resource for modern scientists studying ecological change.

This uncomplicated bread is quick to mix and bake and what is used when making an authentic Muffuletta Sandwich, the ultimate make-ahead picnic sandwich.
Line a large baking tray with a Wizbake baking sheet and set it aside.
Form the dough into a round loaf about 25 cm in diameter and place it on a the lined baking sheet.
Sprinkle the top of loaf with sesame seeds.
Press seeds gently into surface of loaf.
Bake the bread for 15 minutes.
Reduce the temperature to 180 ° C and bake 30 minutes more until the crust is browned and the breads sound hollow when tapped on the top crust.
A metal skewer should come out clean if bread is cooked through.
Cool completely on a cooling rack before assembling a Muffuletta Sandwich.
This very contemporary way of serving a low-kilojoule chicken and salad sandwich would be ideally suited for a casual meal on the patio with friends and family. Prepare an open sandwich for a light meal or a stacked sandwich for a more substantial feast.
Flatten the chicken breast fillets with a mallet or rolling pin to 10 mm thick.
Combine all the ingredients for the spice mixture and sprinkle over the breasts and set aside or cover and refrigerate until ready to fry and serve.
In the meantime, butter 6 to 12 slices of bread or enough for 6 to 12 servings.
Arrange the bread on a large serving platter or individual plates and top neatly with the salad ingredients.
Spoon soured cream and tomato salsa into small bowls and keep refrigerated until required.
Het the butter until moderately hot and fry the chicken breasts for about 3 minutes on a side or until nicely browned and thoroughly cooked but not dry.
Keep warm until ready to serve and slice into slightly smaller portions if preferred.
Place the the hot chicken on top of the salad, spoon over a little sour cream and scatter a few shreds of lettuce, spring onion, avo, etc.
Serve immediately, passing around the remaining soured cream and salsa.
Recipe by Carolie de Koster from the Art of Cooking recipe book p. AOC p. 28.
This bread is a great alternative to bread made with bread or cake flour.
Pre-heat the oven to 175 º C and grease a small loaf tin (10 cm x 20 cm) with butter.
Combine the almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husks, sugar or xylitol, salt and baking powder in a large mixing bowl and mix until combined.
Combine the eggs, coconut oil or butter and vinegar in a measuring jug and whisk it with a fork to combine.
Transfer the batter to the loaf tin and bake for 30 minutes.
Set the tin aside to cool for 10 minutes.
Transfer the bread to a cooling rack to cool before transferring it to a serving dish or storing it in an airtight container.
French toast is the champion of brunch. Nothing says "weekend" like tucking into crispy triangles of bread dripping with syrup or honey. In France, French toast is referred to as "pain perdu". It is referred to as "lost bread" because it is a way to reclaim stale or otherwise "lost" bread. The hard bread is softened by dipping it in a mixture of milk and eggs, and then pan-fried in butter. It is served with a dusting of icing sugar and jam or syrup. It is also known as eggy bread, gypsy toast or omelette bread. In France, pain perdu is served as a dessert, a breakfast or an afternoon tea snack.
See my post "New Foodie Movie: French Toast" for info on this South African movie that will be released on 24 April 2015. If you haven't been to Paris, France, it will feel as if you've been after you have seen it through Lise's eyes!
Be sure to also try Carolié's recipe for Baked Apple French Toast.
Beat together the eggs, milk and vanilla essence in a mixing bowl. Set it aside.
Place the bread in a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the bread in a single layer.
Pour the egg mixture over the bread and soak for 5 to 10 minutes. The soaking time will be determined by die denseness of the bread – the denser the bread, the longer it needs to soak!
Turn the slices over and soak for about 10 minutes more.
Heat the butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Fry a few of the bread slices at a time in the pan until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Transfer the french toast to a serving dish and keep warm while cooking the remaining slices of bread.
Keep the french toast warm in oven until ready to serve.
Serve warm with syrup, a dusting of icing sugar and fresh fruit.
Brioche is a French pastry and is made in the same basic way as bread, but the dough is as rich as a pastry because of the extra addition of eggs, butter, liquid (milk, water, cream, and, sometimes, brandy) and occasionally a bit of sugar. Brioche is often baked with fruit or chocolate chips and served as a pastry or as the basis of a dessert. It is ideal for making French Toast due to its dense texture.
The dough can be baked in any loaf pan, but the classic Brioche shape is achieved by using special fluted brioche moulds or a big Brioche mould (see images below). The traditional shape of a brioche is that of a round lump topped with another smaller round lump or topknot (hence its original name, meaning "with a head"), though it can be baked in regular loaf or muffin tins with great success. Both the large and individual brioche moulds (pictured below) can be used for a variety of different recipes, for instance my Orange, Almond and Polenta Cake (see picture below).
Mix the yeast with the cake flour in a small mixing bowl before adding it to the rest of the ingredients, except the extra flour, in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat well.
Add sufficient of the additional cake flour to form a soft dough.
Knead lightly on a floured surface for 4 to 5 minutes until smooth.
Flour the bowl, return the dough to the bowl, cover and allow to rise in a mildly warm spot for about 30 minutes or until doubled in size.
Pre-heat the oven to 180°C and grease 12 x 9 cm-wide brioche tins with butter.
Knead down the dough lightly and shape the dough into 12 equal portions.
Divide each of the 12 portions into a larger portion and a smaller portion – the smaller portion should be one quarter the size of the larger portion.
Transfer the larger portion of dough in the bottom of one of the brioche tins.
Force a hole into the center of the larger portion of dough with your fore finger, reaching all the way down to the bottom of the tin, and stick the smaller ball in the hole. This keeps it from popping off during baking.
Place the tins on a baking pan and lightly brush the tops of the brioche with the egg glaze.
Allow it to rise in a mildly warm spot until doubled.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden and firm.
Allow to cool in the tins for a few minutes before removing to a cooling rack.
Serve warm with butter only or sweet or savoury accompaniments as preferred.
The dough can also be baked in a 12-hole muffin pan or a large brioche mould.
Recipe adapted from French Brioche Rolls, Art Of Cooking page 842.
This impressive-looking bread is much easier to make than it looks! It can easily be adapted by replacing the filling with alternative sweet or savoury fillings.
To make the filling, place the spinach, spring onion, garlic and salt in a large saucepan and sauté gently until wilted.
Transfer the spinach mixture to a chopping board and chop it finely.
Transfer the spinach mixture to a mixing bowl and add the cheese.
Add the cake flour if the mixture looks wet. Mix well and set it aside to cool.
Place two Wizbake baking sheets on a work surface and place the dough on the sheets.
Use a pastry cutter and cut the dough into two equal pieces.
Use a rolling pin and roll both pieces of dough into circles (about 50 cm in diameter) and set it aside.
Pre-heat the oven to 170º C.
Combine the egg and water in a small mixing bowl and brush it all over one of the dough circles with a pastry brush.
Scoop a few tablespoons of the filling into the middle of the dough circle.
Scoop the rest of the filling 2 cm away from the edge of the circle (see photo below).
Cover the first dough circle with the 2nd dough circle and cut away the excess dough.
Use cupped hands and gently press into the dough around the filling to get rid of any air between the two layers of dough.
Pinch the edges of the two circles lightly together.
Use a pastry cutter and cut the dough at 2 cm intervals so that it looks like the petals of a flower (see photo below).
Leave a circle (10 to 15 cm in diameter) in die middle of the dough.
Brush the dough all over with the egg glaze.
Sprinkle the poppy seeds onto the mound in the centre of the dough.
Transfer the Wizbake sheet with the dough to a baking sheet and place it in the oven.
Bake the bread for 30 to 40 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
Transfer the bread to a cooling rack to cool slightly before serving.
The bread can also be baked in a Silikomart Sunflower mould (see photo below). Click here for the recipe for the Milk Pudding dessert pictured below.
Use a rolling pin and roll both pieces of dough into circles (about 50 cm in diameter).
Scoop a few tablespoons of the filling into the middle of the dough circle. Scoop the rest of the filling 2 cm from the edge.
Brush the dough with the egg glaze.
Lift up one petal at a time and twist it to the right. Do the same with the rest of the petals. Brush the dough all over with egg glaze and sprinkle the poppy seeds onto the mound in the centre of the dough.
Serve your sunflower-shaped bread and wait for the complements!
A quick bread with a difference! The flavour is excellent and texture tender and moist. Serve as is or with butter or enjoy on the side with any main course or soup or top with savoury topping such as sliced avocado.
Pre-heat the oven to 180 º C.
Line a medium size loaf tin (± 22 x 12 x 6 cm) with baking paper and grease with melted butter or cooking spray. Or use a 22 cm ring pan and grease generously with butter.
Place the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix evenly. Add the sweetcorn, milk, eggs and butter or oil and stir only until evenly combined.
Spoon into the prepared tin or ring pan. Bake the ring about 20 minutes or the loaf for about 25 to 30 minutes or until light golden brown and firm and a cake tester comes out clean if inserted.
Allow to cool at least 10 minutes before removing carefully. Allow to cool before slicing to serve.
Store refrigerated and toast lightly if preferred when required.
Oat bran is considered acceptable as gluten free by most who are gluten intolerant. For coeliacs or if you suspect that you are intolerant of oatmeal, use additional maize meal or polenta.
The loaf is good as is but adding optional ingredients adds interesting flavours and variations.
The loaf may be sliced and frozen and toasted from frozen when required.

Keep the skies open, says Etihad Airways chief
A propos de nous >
Etihad Airways, the national airline of the United Arab Emirates, has urged the US Government to 'keep the skies open', in a comprehensive formal response to the joint campaign by Delta Air Lines, United Airlines and American Airlines to block competition and roll back the benefits of Open Skies.
The Etihad Airways response, which has now been submitted to the US Department of State, the US Department of Transportation and the US Department of Commerce, emphasises the many benefits delivered by Open Skies to consumers, to American workers, to US carriers and to US trade and tourism.
It categorically refutes claims made by the Big Three carriers about Etihad Airways' finances, giving a clear and compelling explanation that the equity funding and shareholder loans provided by the Government of Abu Dhabi, by way of investing in a successful business model, fully comply with the US-UAE Air Services Agreement and all other applicable rules.
The submission also shows that the Big Three carriers have gained more than $70 billion in benefits from US Government authorities, and through legal processes such as Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, over the last 15 years.
In a letter supporting the airline's formal submission, James Hogan, Etihad Airways President and Chief Executive Officer, said: "Etihad Airways did not seek this fight; we focus on making money by providing world class, innovative, re-imagined and value-for-money product and services to our guests."
Etihad Airways has submitted that the Big Three carriers' claims, allegations, and requests for relief are not supported by fact, logic, law, or treaty, and that:
(1) Etihad's conduct, and that of the UAE Government, is fully consistent with the US–UAE Air Services Agreement, applicable United States law and the governments' respective treaty obligations;
(2) Government ownership is not an issue under the US-UAE Air Services Agreement;
(3) Shareholder equity and loans are not subsidies;
(4) While Etihad competes vigorously for all passengers, it does not charge artificially low fares;
(5) Etihad causes no actionable harm to the Big Three carriers, and actually provides them with significant commercial benefits in terms of connecting passengers onto their networks (an estimated 300,000 in 2015);
(6 ) Etihad has been successful in markets in which the Big Three carriers affirmatively choose not to compete, and is in fact providing the Big Three carriers with an avenue (through codeshare and interline agreements) to offer their passengers routes that they choose not to fly themselves; and
(7) Etihad treats its worldwide employees, who come from over 140 countries, including the United States, fairly and with respect.
Mr Hogan said: "For these reasons, we respectfully submit that the Big Three carriers' campaign against Etihad Airways should end immediately and that there is no basis whatsoever for government-to-government consultations under the US–UAE Air Services Agreement."
Etihad Airways' submission includes detailed information about the airline, its financial strategy and its business performance.
The airline was established in November 2003, decades after its major international competitors, by the Government of Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE.
Today, Etihad Airways is a globally-recognized, full-service international airline, which carries almost 15 million passengers per year and flies to, or is planning to serve, more than 110 destinations. The airline currently operates almost 120 aircraft and more than 260 flights per day from its hub at Abu Dhabi International Airport.
Etihad Airways has had to invest heavily to compete effectively against its more established competitors. Recognizing the enormous cost of entry to the airline industry, the Abu Dhabi Government invested in Etihad Airways by providing capital and shareholder loans.
Since 2003, the Government has invested $14.3 billion in Etihad Airways; of this amount, $9.1 billion was provided in equity funding and a further $5.2 billion was provided in shareholder loans.
These commitments were made on the basis that the airline would operate commercially, deliver a long-term return on investment, repay shareholder loans and achieve sustainable profitability.
Etihad Airways receives no Government subsidies or sovereign guarantees and, contrary to the claims of some competitors, it does not receive free or discounted fuel or airport services in Abu Dhabi, its home and global hub.
Since 2003, Etihad Airways has raised in excess of $11 billion in long-term funding through the global financial markets, including $3.7 billion debt funding raised in 2014. Approximately $5 billion of the airline's borrowings have been repaid since 2003, including $800 million in 2014.
The airline has established strong relationships with more than 80 global financing partners and aircraft lessors, 26 of which are based or headquartered in the US.
Etihad Airways is highly focused on its commercial mandate. Although it is only 11 years old, the airline has posted consecutive net profits since 2011. Etihad Airways complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and is audited by KPMG.
Commenting on the submission, James Hogan said: "Our story is one of an airline that has chosen to challenge the global status quo, bringing new competition to markets that have for too long been dominated by the major legacy airlines.
"In many markets, airlines react to our new competition by improving their own offer to consumers. It is ironic that in the home of free competition, a market in which we account for only a tiny fraction of one per cent of international departures, we have instead been attacked."
Etihad Airways' submission includes the example of routes to the Indian sub-continent to explain the inaccuracies of the Big Three's arguments. The submission states:
"Their only specific claim is that from 2008 to 2014, they have allegedly collectively lost five percentage points of their market share to the Indian subcontinent. However, what they neglected to mention is that during the same period their passenger numbers actually grew by 18 per cent. So while their collective market share actually went down by a relatively insignificant 4.4 percentage points (not 5 percentage points), their actual passenger volumes grew by over 18 per cent, or over 250,000 passengers, including both economy and premium classes. This passenger growth clearly demonstrates the power and effects of Open Skies and liberalized traffic rights.
"The Big Three carriers affirmatively and voluntarily choose not to directly serve Etihad's key Middle East and Indian Subcontinent markets in a meaningful way. Instead they are routing US passengers through congested European hubs and on to their European alliance partners to serve certain destinations. Indeed, the Big Three carriers' campaign is little more than a regulatory attempt to further cement their oligopoly, particularly on transatlantic markets."
Mr Hogan added that facts, not myths, should define the debate, saying: "These airlines criticize us for being Government-owned – but government stakes in airlines are completely normal around the world. The majority of airlines in the global alliances, which the Big Three dominate, are owned or controlled by governments or government-owned entities. Just this month, the French Government increased its shareholding in Air France.
"The Big Three criticize us for receiving Government investment. We have never made any secret of the fact that we have received equity funding and shareholder loans, which again is not unusual for airlines, or indeed for many businesses. These investments received from our shareholder are not like the more than $70 billion the Big Three have received from US Government sources or court-approved processes since 2000 alone, a fact shown in a study by The Risk Advisory Group.
"The Big Three say our services threaten competition. Yet a report by independent analysts the Edgeworth Group shows that our services actually stimulate traffic flows, which have increased overall passenger numbers on those routes for airlines including the Big Three and their alliance partners.
"The Big Three say we threaten American jobs. Yet their campaign seeks to limit the operations of Etihad Airways, which according to Oxford Economics will support 23,400 American jobs this year, and almost double that number by 2020.
"And finally, the Big Three have spent millions of dollars trying to influence politicians on the supposed threats from the Gulf carriers, yet their report mentions consumer choice only once – even then in a cursory manner."
In his covering letter to Etihad Airways' submission, Mr Hogan said that the US carriers had been able to benefit from numerous Chapter 11 reorganization processes, which gave them a major advantage over their international competitors.
"Yes, we understand that bankruptcy is a court process, but unlike these US carriers, Etihad does not have an avenue by which we can periodically clean up our balance sheet by disclaiming debts and other legal obligations. We have to carry these obligations and debts on our books," he said.
Mr Hogan's letter also said that the United Arab Emirates had embraced the US concept of Open Skies.
"One country that shared the vision of the United States is our home, the United Arab Emirates, which also embraced the idea of open and less regulated traffic flows despite being a small and, at the time, relatively unknown country working toward financial stability and success. This is why we find it so ironic that in 2015 Etihad Airways finds both itself and its home country under attack. We have helped fully realize the best in international aviation policy: safe travel provided by the highest quality airlines at fair prices that allow millions of passengers to travel conveniently and easily to and from the United States to markets in the Middle East, the ISC and beyond, enjoying the many benefits the aviation industry offers."
In addition to a detailed rebuttal of the Big Three US carriers' report, Etihad Airways' submission to the US Government also includes three reports commissioned from independent and respected global expert consultancies.
EXAMINATION OF BENEFITS ACCRUING TO US CARRIERS
On 15 May, 2015 Etihad Airways released a report authored by UK-based The Risk Advisory Group that documented in detail benefits valued at more than $70 billion which Delta, United and American have received from the US Government and judicial processes and mechanisms available only in the United States.
These benefits included massive debt write-offs in multiple bankruptcy proceedings, government assumption of airline employee pension plans and bespoke tax benefits.
Etihad Airways does not question the US Government's right to make these benefits available to US carriers, and nor does it criticize the US carriers for taking advantage of these substantial and valuable benefits.
Instead, Etihad Airways commissioned this report to highlight the environment in which it has to compete and the hazards of unilaterally labelling different funding strategies as subsidies, and otherwise mischaracterizing the way a competitor conducts its business.
REVIEW OF US CARRIERS' ASSERTIONS
On 22 May, 2015, Etihad Airways released a report drafted by Washington, D.C.-based Edgeworth Economics. Etihad Airways' instructions to Edgeworth were simple: review the economic claims made by Delta, United and American and provide an independent critique of their assertions.
Edgeworth conducted a detailed review and concluded, among other things, that air routes between the United States and the Indian Subcontinent (ISC), on which over 65 per cent of Etihad Airways' US passengers fly, are highly competitive.
They found that Etihad Airways' US competitors largely choose not to serve these routes directly. They instead fly passengers to Europe and connect them onto non-US partner airlines, a practice that often requires passengers to make additional stops.
Edgeworth also determined that Etihad's published fares on these routes were consistent with those of competitors, even though the revenue per kilometer generated on these ISC routes was considerably less than the immunized US and European carriers receive on their protected North Atlantic routes.
Most significantly, Edgeworth found that even though there is more capacity on these ISC routes in 2014 than there was in 2009 (the result of increased competition), there continues to be considerable demand for that capacity.
Between 2009 and 2014, US airlines and their immunized joint venture partners actually carried over 250,000 more passengers between the US and the ISC – that is a gain of over 18 per cent.
In 2014, Etihad Airways delivered 182,000 connecting passengers to US airlines including American, United, Delta and Jet Blue. This is forecast to grow to approximately 300,000 in 2015, an increase of 65 per cent, following the introduction last year of new routes to Los Angeles, San Francisco and Dallas Fort Worth.
Etihad Airways is proud to contribute to the success of Open Skies, while maintaining a load factor at approximately 80 per cent on average.
ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTION STUDY
Issued on 27 May 2015, and drafted by Oxford Economics, this detailed Etihad Airways' contribution to the US economy.
Oxford valued at $2.9 billion the contribution Etihad Airways will make to the US economy in 2015 through capital expenditure, passenger and cargo services, direct and indirect employment and contribution to tourism.
This research also calculated that Etihad Airways would employ, or contribute to the employment of over 23,000 Americans in 2015.
Additionally, Oxford projected that the value of our contribution would grow to $6.2 billion by 2020, supporting more than 46,000 American jobs.
While Delta, United and American expend considerable money on advertising and other tactics that claim Etihad Airways threatens American jobs, Oxford conclusively demonstrates, on the contrary, we have a very positive impact on the US economy and workforce.
Mr Hogan said the Etihad Airways had clearly demonstrated that it was contributing not only to competition in the skies, but also to the US economy.
"We believe in competition and consumer choice," he said. "It is now time to get back to the business of providing high quality air services and enhancing consumer choice, just as Open Skies intended. Let's keep the skies open."

Maduro has become a liability to the socialist ideology, he is seen as a big pendejo and it would not be surprising if Cabello stabs him on the back, trows him under the bus and blames him for all the problems and deaths and takes the power and becoming a hero to the cause. I think Cabello is as evil as Chavez and has been waiting for his opportunity and this might be it.
Interesting about Maduro going after CNN. Freedom lovers here in the states have called it "Chavez News Network," "Castro News Network" and "Communist News Network." It seems even a left-wing propaganda operation can't ignore Maduro's latest abuses.
Please excuse my interjection here, but I just found it interesting that a Time-Warrner/AOL media company would be perceived as left wing. But then I am here in a " socialist " country with no back-bone. I don't think that CNN will be "cut from cable" the way NTN 24 was. They Cable companies would loose ( may loose ) another 6 channels along with it, 1 of them a cartoon network. This would put a whole in the pocket of the cable Co.s. I think that is why Maburro just announced a "procedure" to get CNN off air, they just did not order them turned off. " Procedures " can take years there.
Your interjection is most welcome!
The news divisions of America's media giants (other than News Corp.) are mouthpieces for the Democrat party, which is the major left-wing party here in the states.
I wonder if online efforts such as eutv.net will gain traction in Venezuela. If they do, I'm sure Maduro will try to get in their way as well.
Forgot to add, my s-i-l says that internet service has been cut in Tachira. He's still communicating with us via cellphone.
Not a bad idea with the street chalk or paint. The media has been blocked and now cnn shown the door, but satelites and drones can capture the messages. Maybe even be recorded into history on google earth. SOS Venezuela.
Here in my small pueblo in the eastern part of the country, things are quiet though even the most strident Chavistas are finally admitting that times are tough. As of yesterday, there were demonstrations in Maturin with one part of the city (Tipuro) completely isolated with road closures. I haven't spoken to my contacts there today.
My son-in-law lives in western state of Tachira and things there seem to have taken a turn for the worse after Maduro's threats in last night's national 'cadena'. He says that there's a really strong military presence there today with national guard tanks, helicopters, and even paratroopers. Businesses are shut down and hardly anyone leaves home. He leases to Domesa which is something of a UPS-type business and says they've not opened their doors for 4 days now.
Finding spare parts for vehicles, tractors, and farm equipment is now very difficult. It's amazing how much time one wastes just trying to keep things running. How the lights stay on is beyond me.
Nicolas Maduro: CNN go home !
He's not backing down, the current cadena is proof.
With the nation in crisis mode and protesters becoming better organized, the regime has announced another new foreign exchange market. That makes three, plus the black market. Surely, that will restore peace, calm and prosperity. Not.
I think you are right on on Maduro and the rest. Be careful, Caracas looks more and more like Kiev.

Hot dog! Vets say burned feet common for dogs in the summer
Blistered pads, heat stroke, can happen at home
By: Taylor Hemness
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — After a very hot summer, the United States is due for a cool down. Heat-related illnesses can be painful for your dog, and expensive for you — but lower temperatures make not make your pet less vulnerable.
Dr. Christina Belew's office is in Kansas City and has seen a lot of city dogs who walk on a lot of concrete.
"People forget that their pads are really sensitive," Belew said of the pups' paws.
"A lot of my runners don't think about the paw pads, until the dog is limping. They think, 'Oh, they've sprained something,' and then I flip over their feet, and I've got blistered pads."
And if there's not enough shade at your house, they can burn those pads there too. In temperatures like what Kansas City has experienced this summer, even the shade doesn't offer the relief your dog needs.
"People think, 'They've got a doghouse,'" Belew said. "Well go out and sit in that doghouse when it's 110 degrees outside and there's no air moving."
Which leads to the more obvious, and potentially deadly threat to your pet this summer: heat stroke. And it happens because most dogs really can't pace themselves like people can, even in temperatures you might think are safe.
"I had one do it at 80 degrees," Belew said. "It was humid, we were at the park, it was just too much for him.
And if your dog gets heat stroke, get ready for an expensive bill. It can cost $200 to 600, and top $1,000 if you have to go to an emergency clinic.
"It's aggressive, expensive treatment because they have to be here one to two days," Belew said. "It causes a pretty nasty cascade of events within the body."
So if you're hot, your dog is even hotter, inside and out. Not to mention, you're not walking on your hands and bare feet.
Another tip: Belew said absolutely do not put ice on your dog to cool him/her down. It won't work, and can actually affect his or her cardiovascular system. Cool water and a cool rag are the way to go.

USA Cycling Para-cycling National Road and Track Championships to be held in Chattanooga and Carson
By: Kristen Gowdy June 02, 2022
COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO – U.S. Paralympics Cycling today announced that the 2022 USA Cycling Para-cycling Road National Championships and USA Cycling Para-cycling Track National Championships will be held in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and Carson, California, respectively. Road national championships will take place July 9-10, while the track competition is set for September 9-10.
Both National Championships will serve as selection events for the U.S. teams that will compete at the 2022 UCI Para-cycling World Championships. Road world championships are scheduled for August in Quebec, Canada, while track will take place in Montigny-Le-Bretonneux, France, in October.
"We're excited for this year's national championships after a Paralympic year, competition should be very high for the stars and stripes jersey. We're excited to partner with U.S. Paralympics Cycling for another year of competition and look forward to expanding Para-cycling competition at the national level," Tara McCarthy, Director of National Events of USA Cycling, said.
U.S. Paralympics Cycling is partnering with Chattanooga Sports to host road national championships, which will feature the top American athletes in each classification.
"The added bonus of worlds team selection at this year's nationals will make for an even more exciting event," Ian Lawless, director of U.S. Paralympics Cycling, said. "Our team exceeded expectations at the recent road world cup competitions in Europe, and we are looking forward to seeing what they bring to Chattanooga. We are incredibly grateful to have a partner in Chattanooga Sports to help bring this event to life."
Road national championships will feature two full days of racing and will include time trial, handcycle relay, and road racing competition.
"It is an honor to host the USA Cycling Para-cycling Road National Championships and welcome athletes from across the nation to Chattanooga," Barry White, CEO and President of Chattanooga Tourism Co., said. "The talent and determination of these athletes is unmatched, and we look forward to hosting this prestigious event in our city and serving as the venue where new national champions will be determined."
VELO Sports Center, which has played host to many track competitions and camps for U.S. Paralympics Cycling, is set to hold track national championships. Aside from training camps, the U.S. Paralympics Cycling track national team has not competed since the Paralympic Games Tokyo 2020, and will return to racing seeking qualification for world championships.
"VELO Sports Center is like a second home to our team, and we are excited to see what our athletes bring to the table this fall," Lawless said. "The team has been working hard with the ultimate goal of success at world championships, and nationals will be an important step in achieving that goal."
"We are excited to welcome back some of the United States' top athletes onto our boards," Travis Smith, VELO Sports Center's manager, said. "Historically these selection competitions are some of our favorite events for staff and members. We are excited to watch the high-action races in September. With the difficulty over the past couple of years and the racing hiatus here at the VELO Sports Center, this will be a great event."
Athletes named to world championship teams will be announced shortly after the conclusion of each competition. Details for both events can be found here. Follow U.S. Paralympics Cycling on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for updates and coverage of national championships.

Ixxus launches Social Content Platform for Alfresco Enterprise Content Management customers
July 20 • 3 min read
Information management specialists Ixxus today announced the launch of its Social Content Platform for users of the Alfresco Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system. Alfresco is the leading global open source ECM provider with nearly 2,000 customers in 55 countries and Ixxus is the first company to develop a specific module for managing and creating social content across the platform.
The Ixxus Social Content Platform features out-of-the-box integration with existing social media services such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn, meaning that users can create a central repository based on Alfresco for managing both their traditional and now social content. Through being able to disseminate and access information quickly and in a consistent manner via a single platform, organisations can improve both brand awareness and customer loyalty, as well as create revenue opportunities.
"Being able to manage and share social content effectively is becoming a huge challenge for a lot of organisations as the rules have changed regarding how people consume media and interact online. Whereas previously organisations may have had control over the content they published, today's social media channels are making this a much more difficult task,"
said Paul Samuel, Director at Ixxus.
"While recognising the importance of social media, many organisations currently manage it in a siloed fashion using a number of different tools and with very little integration with their existing content management systems. Furthermore, it can be very difficult for organisations to keep track of and record all their social media interactions with customers, which is becoming increasingly important when it comes to customer service. With our Social Content Platform we aim to provide Alfresco users with one co-ordinated point where they can publish their social content and interact with their online audiences in a more controlled and efficient fashion."
The Ixxus Social Content Platform offers users a number of features including:
Integrated social content publishing – Out-of–the-box integration with your existing website, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, enabling users to directly publish to social media sites from their content management system. As an open platform it will also allow for easy integration of future publishing channels. Ixxus has even created an algorithm that will help reduce content to 140 characters so it can be sent out via Twitter.
Central management of feedback – The Social Content Platform also provides users with the ability to view and respond to user comments via a common interface. This means that users no longer need to use separate tools and ensures better response consistency across all social media channels.
Review and publish workflow – Organisations can set the necessary workflow publishing approvals for all their social content to help ensure that messages are consistent and potentially damaging tweets or Facebook updates aren't published. Time-based workflow can also be set up to ensure that scheduled content goes out in a co-ordinated manner across all communication channels.
Powerful reporting – Integration with reporting tools such as Google Analytics means that organisations can gauge the success of their social media activity, providing marketers with full campaign management. For example, analytics may show that Facebook activity was more successful than Twitter on a particular campaign, meaning that an organisation may choose to focus more on Facebook activity in the future.
Full history of published content – The Social Content Platform provides organisations with access to a full history of their published content. This means that users can easily search and retrieve content, and provide them with the ability to roll-back changes across one or more of their web or social media sites.
"Most organisations are faced with the dual pressure of driving out costs but at the same time increasing efficiency. One way of doing this is to sort out their information infrastructures and create better repositories for all their content. Modules such as our Social Media Platform can help organisations simplify and improve the speed of their communication processes by minimising the number of tasks and people involved. Furthermore, as it is based on an open platform like Alfresco customers can have peace of mind that they will have an extensible and future-proof solution without the lock-in of propriety systems," added Paul Samuel.

The crust for this pizza is made mainly out of cheese. A delicious, low-carb and gluten free alternative to traditional pizza crust.
What's your favorite part about pizza? For me, it's all about the cheese. So why not have a crust made entirely of cheese? The inspiration struck actually while I was eating tacos at Puesto, one of my favorite spots in San Diego for tacos. Some of their tacos have a crispy melted cheese layer which basically acts like a cheese tortilla for the ingredients. And it got me thinking, what if I could create something similar for pizza?
Thankfully my cheese supply has been replenished. You might recall that back when I shared my Cauliflower Crusted Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, I was in panic that my Cabot cheese supply was almost gone from the year supply I had won. Thankfully the second shipment of my year supply arrived and I've been trying to be better at making it last, but it's really hard since my automatic reaction when I have an abundance of an ingredient is to come up with a bunch of recipe ideas. Like cheese crusted cheese pizza.
Step 1: Combine the cheese, eggs, and seasonings together in a food processor until mostly smooth.
Step 2: Press the cheese mixture in an even layer into a baking pan.
Step 3: Bake the cheese crust at 350°F for 20 minutes or until it's lightly golden brown.
Step 4: Top the crust with sauce and cheese and bake until the cheese has melted.
Speaking of cauliflower, if you've made cauliflower crust pizza or cauliflower breadsticks, this is very similar in terms of taste and texture. It's easier to make since you don't have to deal with cooking and wringing dry cauliflower. Also, the crust is sturdier as well. I was actually surprised at how sturdy it was when it finished cooking. I couldn't stop poking it.
I am pretty happy with how this crust turned out. It's sturdy, doesn't taste too salty and is easy to make. The one thing is, it's not as crispy as I would like pizza crust to be. It's more of a soft crust, but it's still delicious and I would make it again.
The crust for this pizza is made mainly out of cheese. A delicious, low-carb and gluten-free alternative to traditional pizza crust.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line parchment paper inside a 9-inch round pie pan. You should cut the parchment paper into a circle that fits and completely covers the bottom of your pie pan, with a little extra leftover on two opposite sides so that you will be able to grip the parchment paper to help easily remove the pizza crust later.
In a food processor, add all the crust ingredients. Pulse several times until the ingredients are completely blended together. Pour the wet mixture into your pie dish. Using a spatula, spread the mixture evenly across the bottom. Place into the middle section of your oven and bake for about 20 minutes until all of the crust is a light brown. When you touch the crust, it should be pretty firm.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Let the crust cool for a few minutes and carefully remove out of pan by gripping the leftover parchment paper edges. Take off the parchment paper and place crust directly onto a pizza stone dusted with cornmeal. You can also bake your pizza back in pie pan but the crust will stay much softer. If you do bake it back in the pie pan, you don't need to remove pizza crust or parchment paper. Spread tomato sauce across the crust, leaving about 1/2 inch around the edges untouched. Spread cheese on top of tomato sauce. Add any other toppings at this time.
Place pizza back into the oven and cook for about 10 minutes or until cheese is bubbly. If you are making a plain cheese pizza, turn to low broil for about 30 seconds, which will brown the cheese bubbles.
If you want to add additional toppings I recommend reducing the amount of cheese to 1 cup.
Use a low sugar tomato sauce if you are trying to keep it low carb or keto.
OH, MY HOLY HELL, WOW, YES!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! I am sitting here TRULY moaning, "MMM! MMMMMPH! OH, yes, thank God, FINALLY!" I am completely sincere when I tell you this and I want to thank you SO MUCH for a crust that FEELS AND TASTES like a CRUST!!! Sorry, but the all caps are where I emphasize words of MAJOR importance…this crust is majorly important! I can finally have pizza again and NOT make a face and tell myself I am enjoying it. thank you…SO MUCH!!!
Haha, I am so glad you liked this recipe so much!
Soooooo good! I'm doing keto so it was PERFECT for me and SO delicious! ??? Happen to know Nutrition facts??
I don't have a round pan and want to make this now. Can I use just a cookie pan and round the crust and cook ?
I doubled the recipe and used a large cookie pan and it came out perfect!
I made half a recipe and only topped it with capers, anchovies, olives, garlic and seasoning ….It was so delicious.
Now I made one to try and freeze.
I made it and it is delicious!
I love seeing pictures but unfortunately that's not a feature allowed with comments. You can always send me one via facebook or instagram though!
Best low carb pizza recipe I've tried so far!
So glad you tried and enjoyed!
Do you think that adding almond flour to this recipe that it would add more firmness?
I don't have a stone pizza pan but like a firmer crust, can you add it back to the oven on the parchment paper directly on the rack??
I have not tried this method, but it may work.
I just made this crust, but I used a spring form round cake pan. I sprayed it with oil and cooked it for 20 mins.then transferred it to a cookie sheet.
No need for parchment paper. Itwas awesome!!!! I will be making this from now on. Thank you so much for the recipe. I will be experimenting with different toppings.
I'm glad this recipe worked out for you!
I made this crust for supper this evening and I have to agree with the rest of the crowd, outstanding! I laid out parchment paper on a cookie sheet and spread it out into an 11 inch circle. Baked for 20 min. It was beautiful. Turned the oven to broil, topped it with sauce, pepperoni, sausage, green pepper, mushrooms and mozzarella. Broiled for 5 min. I've been on I F and keto for 18 months and I can honestly say the only thing I have really missed is pizza. This crust has made my day, week and month. Thank you so much for a truly wonderful recipe.
Awesome! thank you – i was going to use the spring form but i didnt have it at home – we just finish eating this tonight and it was wonderful. We cough when we have flour so nice not to cough and feeling full after eating. I will try Melissa's suggestion for cripsy crust.
Interesting. What made you decide to use the other ingredients instead of just cheese?
Many years ago about a year after the Atkins diet came out I decided I couldn't stand going without my pizza! So I tried an experiment and put some cheese as a base in some non stick cupcake tins then a dab of sauce, a few toppings and a little more cheese. I don't remember what I set the oven to but the "crust" turned out golden brown and a little crispy. It was AWESOME! I eventually got off the Atkins diet and went back to normal pizza. Now, many years later my brother has diabetes and I thought this would be a great option for him. However, it just turned into a gooey oily mess this time. Did you ever try it with just cheese?
P.S. I just tried it again with less cheese on the bottom and raised the temp from 400 to 410 for 15 minutes & it's looking better. A little crispy this time, but could have used about three more minutes. Still pretty greasy though. I might have to try your recipe.
Adding the other ingredients makes it become a dough-like crust rather than just melted cheese.

Hilary Duff Is Expecting Her Third Child
Congrats to the expecting family!
October 27, 2020 April 18, 2021 by Kate Streit
Hilary Duff is expecting her third child. The mom of two took to Instagram Oct 24. to share the good news. "We are growing!!!" she wrote in the caption of a video of her husband Matthew Koma rubbing her baby bump. "Mostly me…" she added.
Koma also shared the same video on his Instagram page, writing, "lol quarantine was fun. Baby #3 – 2021."
Duff and Koma share daughter Banks Violet, 2. Duff also shares a son, 8-year-old Luca Cruz, with her ex-husband Mike Comrie. As an actor, singer and fashion designer, Duff has spoken out before about the challenge of juggling career and motherhood.
"I don't always balance it all, I do the best that I can, and some months are crazier than others," Duff told E! News in April 2018 of parenting son Luca. "I'm a mother first, so he's always my number one priority. And then my decision-making process is like, 'Hey can I make this work? Is he going to get enough of what he needs from me?'"
In 2019, she spoke about the relationship between her two children during an appearance on the Mother.ly podcast.
"Honestly, he can't keep his hands off her," she said, referring to Luca and his baby sister Banks. "He's like constantly cradling her head and wants to hold her and walk holding her. And cheers her on at every moment and laughs at her and wants to put her to bed with me. He's really a top-notch big brother."
Aww! Now Banks will get the opportunity to see what it's like to be an older sibling as well. There's no word yet on the new baby's sex.
Duff, 33, also spoke about the respect she has for fellow moms.
"I look at a new mom in amazement no matter if they have one baby, two babies, three babies, four babies, you know," she said. "It's all like you're doing the most incredible work and be kind to yourself and enjoy it."
Congratulations to the whole family on their newest addition!

We are swamped by oversized phones. But if OnePlus CEO Pete Lau has his way, we may finally get a great phone that is not the size of a surfboard for hamsters.
According to PCMag, Lau sees a lot of demand for smaller phones. But the fact is that there are no products to satisfy it. After the death of the iPhone SE, only Sony is producing "compact" phones that are neither that compact nor irresistible, despite being decent machines. And the new Palm is more oversized Apple Watch than phone (and a lousy one at that). There are no great small phones out there.
Perhaps you don't have go as small and underpowered as the tiny Palm. Maybe you need to a phone the size of an iPhone SE (123.8 x 58.6 x 7.6 millimeters) or a bit wider and/or thicker. To make it perfect, it needs to have the following (I'm taking Apple as a reference but you can do the same with Android, of course).
Make the screen OLED and flushed to the edges (like in the image above) so you actually end with a display roughly the size of the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 in a much tinier package.
Include a good camera sensor like the one in the iPhone XR.
Feature a 7-nanometer processor like the new Snapdragon 855 to save on power, 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
Use materials that are not all glass on the back. Ceramics, leather, even some cool woods. Heck, allow users to personalize the phone just like Motorola used to do with the Moto X.
Include a 2,800mAh battery pack or wait until you can get a higher capacity graphene battery that can charge in no time.
That's it. I would buy that in a nanosecond. It's time for the pendulum to move back and offer people options.
Check out the best small phones right now.

Assault on Weapons Ban
After a decade as law, the assault weapons ban expires Monday — and the NRA can't wait.
Jeff Fleischer
The national ban on semi-automatic assault weapons, singed into law by President Clinton in 1994, is set to expire Monday unless Congress acts to extend the ban. That looks unlikely, with neither house of Congress nor President Bush advancing the issue.
The assault weapons ban – which applies to 19 types of weapons, as well as ammunition clips holding more than 10 rounds – has been touted by supporters as a success, with gun murder rates having fallen dramatically over the past decade (though it's unclear how much of that is directly tied to the weapons ban). While gun manufacturers have used loopholes to create legal "knockoffs" of banned weapons – including the kind used by the D.C. snipers – and the NRA has aggressively lobbied against the ban, it remains popular with the public. According to a poll released Monday by the National Annenberg Election Survey, two-thirds of Americans want the ban extended – including about 57 percent of those with guns in their home. As a Wednesday staff editorial in USA Today argued:
"The law's popularity is evident in the way Bush and lawmakers are dodging outright support for lifting the ban. Bush, who endorsed the ban during his 2000 campaign, says he'll sign an extension when Congress sends him legislation. Yet, he has not prodded lawmakers to pass a bill as he did to win such priorities as his tax cuts, a Medicare drug benefit and the Iraq war resolution."
The Senate did show some support for extending the ban back in March, when it voted to do so as an amendment to a bill preventing gun manufacturers from liability. But the NRA then withdrew its support for the measure, the liability bill died, and the Senate has not revived the issue. The House has avoided the subject, with Dennis Hastert saying he's not inclined to schedule a vote until the Senate has acted.
Then there's George Bush. As a presidential candidate in 2000, he promised to extend the weapons ban, and a White House spokesperson told the Washington Post Tuesday that the president still "supports the reauthorization of the current ban." But that's easy to say with the knowledge that Congress won't be sending a reauthorization to your desk, and Bush has refrained from pushing the measure along. In the words of Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), a strong supporter of the ban:
"The president has done nothing. His party is in control and is controlled by the gun industry. We need a president who doesn't want assault weapons on our streets."
The problem is, the National Rifle Association wants assault weapons on our streets. Even if Bush is sincere in wanting to extend the ban, the NRA has threatened to withdraw its support for him. Richard Feldman, a lobbyist for gun manufacturers, told the San Francisco Chronicle it would be "close to his political death" if Bush signed an extension before the election, as the NRA and its fellow travelers would stay away from the polls. And the NRA has withheld its endorsement so far, waiting to make sure Bush plays ball. Feldman said that doesn't preclude future action by Bush:
"Come January, it's a different story. Then, if he's re-elected, he'd be forced to sign the bill, if he gets a clean one that just contains an extension of the existing law."
But by that time, there will be plenty of new semi-automatic weapons on the street, as gun enthusiasts are already gearing up for the expiration. As the Post reports, major gun manufacturers are planning to bring back now-banned models, and are offering to sell 15-round magazines starting Sept. 14. Even the Israeli maker of the notorious Uzi is reportedly ready to introduce its guns to the U.S. once the ban is no longer in effect. Robert Ricker, a former leader of the American Shooting Sports Council, told the Post there will be a "buying frenzy" starting next week, helped along by the notion that a ban could be reinstituted at any point.
Ironically, one of the NRA's arguments against the weapons ban is its admittedly arbitrary nature, which bans the aforementioned 19 guns while allowing others no less dangerous. That's true, as USA Today argues:
"The NRA is right. But the solution is to eliminate the loopholes, not the law. California has shown the way by banning the sale of large ammo clips and weapons with grenade launchers, bayonet mounts or other features that turn rifles into killing machines. Washington won't follow until it fears a return of dangerous weapons on the street more than the gun lobby."
There's only five days left until those weapons begin their return to the legal market.
