The French rightly pride themselves on having inspired American remakes like “the Dinner for Schmucks” and “True Lies.” They also rightfully complain that Americans always spoiled the artistic touch in the original movies. For once the roles are reversed in real life and not on cinema reels. The French remake being shot now in Mali of the 2003 ‘Mission Accomplished” flick starring George W. Bush does not, thus far, show any promise of improving on the American original action drama.
Credit should be given when due, Mr Hollande’s decision to put boots on the ground is a responsible choice– better late than never. However, the real question today is: does France have a credible exit strategy that does not result in another botched war in Northern Mali? President Hollande’s PR-minded visit to Mali’s liberated north along with the nation’s interim President Dioncounda Traoré felt like a an eery replay of George W. Bush’s infamous “Mission Accomplished” moment aboard a US aircraft carrier. While Mr Hollande and his host were prudent not to declare the fight against Jihadis over, they had more rhetoric than concretes to offer as an assessment of the current situation. Most media stories reported the event without really questioning the next phases in the conflict.
Just as in 2003, Hollande echoed Bush’s pledges of grandiose plans for rebuilding Iraq. Like the images of Iraqis tearing down Saddam’s statue in 2003, footage of effusive and jubilant locals praising Mr Hollande and their liberators has been rolling on cable news channels around globe. A weak and temporary fill-in until Mali resumes its democratic regime interrupted by military coups, Mr Taroré did not have much to say about reconciliation with the North other than a vague willingness to negotiate with the MNLA. Behind the smiles, and the photos ops, no concrete plan seems to exist to fix Mali’s multidimensional failures.
On the security front, the draw down of France’s 3000 troops has already been decided. the official line is that ECOWAS troops will support Malian troops hereon forward. The United States has pledged $10 Million Dollars to help train Mali’s army. this being the same army that melted in battle last winter when Jihadis took it head on, one cannot help but wonder whether this check is a buy-out option from a hopeless task? Whatever the answer is, it is imperative that the Malian army be continuously supervised lest its undisciplined troops engage in yet another round of vigilante retribution against civilians they deem to be in cahoots with the enemy.
As of January 20, only 450 out of the 4500 ECOWAS troops pledged were already on Malian soil. Almost half are from Chad, the rest are spread between Nigeria, Niger, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Benin and Togo. Of course, the devil is in the details; Benin sent policemen, and Ghana sent combat engineers — neither are exactly frontline combat troops. Of course, these numbers increased in the last 10 days but the questions remain valid: other than Nigeria’s and Chad’s troops, how soon can we expect that this mishmash can be forged into a credible fighting force?
Speaking of mishmash and cultural references, experience in Iraq and Afghanistan show that any foreign troops have a very short time window to adapt to local cultures and traditions. Sub-saharan troops are not an exception to this rule. Just as their Western counterparts in the past decade, they are entering into an alien culture whose intricacies and codes they must quickly grasp or risk being seen by locals as a serious nuisance in their lives. After all, who could forget how quickly Iraqis’ shouts of “Thank you America” turned into “down down America”?
Conspicuously absent when the going got rough, Europe’s leaders seem all too content to have dodged another war they could avoid. Of course, they pledged 50 Million Euros to fund the African contingent being deployed in Mali and to send trainers. Decidedly, the European Union is a coalition of the amnesiacs. over a decade, Western European nations diligently filled terrorist coffers with ransom money to free EU hostages. Way above the $100 Million mark, that money went a long way in helping Jihadis buy arms and train future terrorists. Consequently, the onus of showing responsible leadership remains on EU member countries. They should, at least, triple their financial and military assistance to France. if not for their own security, it is a step on the way to repair the damage their policies caused to Mali and the region’s security. Their credibility and commitment to combat international terrorism depends on it.
With Jihadis melting in nature, and quickly disappearing in the depth of the Sahara, France, African nations, and the world at large are better served by some candor: there are not enough troops on the ground. Mr Hollande does not yet have an exit strategy, Mali’s military and governance require years to rebuild. After the joy recedes, the people freshly liberated in northern Mali will be expecting all the rosy promises made to them to be fulfilled. For that to happen, the international community should follow France’s lead and shoulder its part of the responsibility. Anything short of a full Bosnia-style UN mission in northern Mali can not be a serious response to a an equally serious problem. For the sake of peace, we can only hope that today l’impossible n’est pas Français! | http://dekhnstan.wordpress.com/tag/azawad/ | 2013-05-18T11:03:27 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Washington, DC—Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid made the following statement today after the U.S. Senate voted to advance the housing reform bill for a final-passage vote tomorrow:
“After months of Republican stalling, we are finally moving forward on the bipartisan housing bill, and are looking forward to passing it tomorrow. This bill is the most sweeping housing legislation the Congress will have passed in decades. It addresses the root of the broader economic crisis – record-high foreclosures – by helping Americans keep their homes and keep their home equity. Even President Bush has finally dropped his stubborn opposition to this important bill and finally realizes, as Democrats long have, that we must act immediately to address the housing crisis.”

Find a Dentist in Southington, OH:
If You Need A Good Dentist in Southington These Tips Will Help You Find One
Having healthy teeth is one reason why having a good dentist is so important. Dental care that is high quality can't be substituted, even though lots of things can be done, such as brushing and flossing on a consistent basis. There will be times when you might need a root canal or a cavity filled, and these will happen even when you are careful. There are ways for you to find the best dentist for your needs, and this article will help you.
Call (888) 985-5898 to be connected with a pre-qualified dentist in Southington.
When you are hoping to seek out a dentist, you should visit at least a few different offices in your local are thinking of trying out a dentist one of the best ways to do this is to schedule a cleaning and a checkup. This will help you gauge how comfortable you feel both with the dentist and with the office as a whole. A lot of people won't try to find a dentist until they are suffering from big problems like massive toothaches. In this case, you may have to find someone who has an open appointment in the near future. When it's possible, though, you need to choose a dentist before you are faced with an emergency. You may be trying to find a dentist you can see for the regular things like whitening and checkups. On the other hand, you may need a specialist for certain things. When your teeth need orthodontics, for example, hiring a specialist is the way to go. If you've already got a regular dentist, ask him to recommend a good specialist for what you need. When you want to find a new dentist, look for a bigger office with multiple services so you won't be forced to travel for separate procedures. There are some medical offices that will even have doctors, chiropractors, etc in addition to dentists all within one office and under one roof.
Depending on what the staff at the dental office is like, that's what your experience will be. You have to call the office for scheduling an appointment and deal with them while you are there, even if the dentist is your primary focus. All the workers in the office should not only be professional in their attitude, but also polite. It is not a good sign when the office staff is abrasive or rude because they reflect on the dentist you are thinking about choosing. When a staff is nice, you have a lot more confidence dealing with them if an emergency comes up where you have to call the office. The dentist will probably also have at least one assistant, and this is also someone who will have an impact on your experience.
Call (888) 985-5898 to be connected with a pre-qualified dentist in Southington.
There are quite a few factors to consider when choosing a dentist, from the cost to the location to the dentist's reputation and experience. It's also a matter of finding someone who makes you feel comfortable when you have a potentially painful procedure scheduled. Dental health should never be underestimated for importance, especially when you are in need of a new dentist, so the above guidelines should help. | http://dentistphone.com/find-a-dentist/OH/Southington | 2013-05-18T10:21:51 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

It wasn't pretty, but the Boise State Broncos defeated the BYU Cougars on Thursday night, 7-6, and with the victory the Broncos remain No. 24 in this week's Associated Press Top 25 Poll.
The Alabama Crimson Tide continue their stronghold on the No. 1 position in the poll, with the Oregon Ducks jumping the LSU Tigers to grab the No. 2 spot this week. LSU's less-than-impressive win over Auburn is the cause of the slide, though the Tigers still did garner one first place vote. Florida State and Georgia round out the Top 5 this week.
Three new undefeated teams jumped into the AP Poll this week: Oregon State at No. 18, Rutgers at No. 23, and Baylor at No. 25.

Most everyone recognizes the red berries that probably showed up beside the turkey on the dinner table last month, but probably few would recognize the plant that produces these tasty little morsels. It may surprise you to know that this same attractive, diminutive, glossy leaved shrub that bears the fruit that has become an American tradition makes a beautiful, evergreen, easy groundcover with all the attributes of a first class garden plant: ornamentally pleasing, hardy, dependable, easy to propagate, low to no maintenance and four seasonal interest. There is one drawback. At the present it is hard to find a source since nurserymen in Georgia only started propagating it for sale in the last year or so. It is, however, offered by some mail order and specialty nurseries and probably by the spring of l998, it will be more readily available to the public.
Most of us in Georgia haven’t encountered this little jewel because the closest its natural range comes to Georgia is in the mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina. Found in the wild in acid sphagnum bogs from Newfoundland to Minnesota and southward to the mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina, this member of the Ericaceae family is a close relative of the blueberry, which is, of course, in the same genus. Vaccinium is the ancient name of the blueberry and macrocarpon refers to the large fruit. Cranberry is a corruption of craneberry, the name colonist gave the plant because the flowers are shaped like the head and neck of a crane. The berries were so prized by the colonist that early Massachusetts’ history records a gift of l0 barrels of cranberries shipped to King Charles II. Because the berries remained on the shrub throughout the winter and also could be stored for up to a year, they were a very important staple in the diet of Native Americans also, and it is commonly thought that they introduced the pilgrims to the preparation of the fruit on the first Thanksgiving. They also used the berries that they called atoca, meaning “good fruit”, as a poultice for wounds, to cure stomach problems, as a diuretic, to lower fevers and to barter for food.
Description: American cranberry is a small, 6-8”, low growing evergreen shrub with slender, horizontal trailing stems which intermittently root at the nodes forming a mounding, dense groundcover of indefinite spread. The fine textured, evergreen leaves are simple, alternate, elliptic, entire and glabrous about l/2 to 3/4” long and not quite as wide. Their color is lustrous dark green in spring and summer, purple to burgundy, fall through winter. The horizontal stems are vegetative only, while the upright stems that grow from the leaf axils of the runners bear the small, bell shaped, pale pink flowers that look like miniature shooting stars. The blooms that start in May in the Atlanta area and go on intermittently throughout the summer are too small to be showy, but the recognizable red berry is very ornamental, starting out green in the summer, ripening in September-October to a rich, shiny red just in time to make it to the dinner table by Thanksgiving. Those that don’t, persist through the winter.
Cultivation:: Cranberries grown as ornamentals require much less exacting cultivation than the carefully produced commercial cranberry. You would expect it to require wet soil since it occurs naturally in bogs. Not so. The natural bogs are typically very wet with the spring rains but dry out in the summer and fall. Georgia has typically this same weather pattern. At the DeKalb College Botanical Garden we have found in the last three years that the cranberry shrub requires no more supplemental water than any other garden plant. What is does require is rich, organic, acid soil, full sun to very light shade and room for the runners to spread. We plant it in pure compost and add organic matter each year to keep the soil loose, rich and acid. By mulching with pine straw or bark, it can be kept as a 2-2 l/2’ shrub with the runners gracefully trailing on top of the mulch. For best results as a spreading ground cover forgo the pine straw or bark and allow the stems to root at the nodes spreading indefinitely. Plant it in the fall or early spring and treat it as any other shrub, giving it ample water until it is established. The speed by which it spreads can be hastened by fertilizing at regular intervals during the growing season.
Propagation:: While American cranberry can be grown from seed that has had a three month cold stratification period, cuttings are so easy and dependable that this is the usual method of propagation. To root it in a greenhouse environment, snip 6-l0” runner tips in late spring or summer, strip the bottom half of the tips of its foliage, dip in a rooting hormone and stick in sand or potting soil. Rooting usually takes place within a month. A handful of stems can be rooted altogether in the same hole. To root directly outside, use this same method. In late spring or early summer, gather a hand full of runner tips 8-l0” long, use a rooting hormone (dip and grow works fine), stick the whole handful in rich, moist, organic soil amended with creek sand and keep moist until roots are established.
Garden Use: The trailing stems of American cranberry which intermittently root at the nodes make it a natural for covering banks or any area where an evergreen low growing groundcover is needed. Plant it in masses or groups of 3-5 to edge a walk or driveway. Use it in front of course big leaf hollies or laurels for contrast. The horizontal growth habit of American Cranberry planted in front of the red upright ‘Rosy Glow’ Barberry is very interesting. Plant it near a Loropetalum ‘Burgundy’ to enhance the winter color of both. great in a rock garden or as an edging in a herb garden. Use it in containers alone or, even better, use it as the spilling edger in a large accent container filled with tall flowers or a shrub. The shiny dark stems trailing from a white window box in a sunny window would be gorgeous. Plant them as a crop around the perimeter of a vegetable garden to spruce it up. Wherever you plant it be generous and plant enough for you and the birds to enjoy.

The cookie-like crust for this tart comes together in a snap - it is simply made from rolled oats, granulated sugar and salt that are mixed in a food processor until the oats are finely ground. Chilled chunks of butter are added and after a couple tablespoons of icy water, the crust came together in no time. The best part of this dough? No rolling it out! You just scoop it into the bottom of a tart pan and use your hands to easily mash it over the bottom and up the sides.Since the filling is cooked in a saucepan, the crust does need to be fully baked before being filled.

Strawberry-Chocolate Tart
Oh, yum. There is nothing better that strawberries and chocolate for dessert. I can't wait to make this!
"Swoon-worthy" -- I love your adjectives. I believe this would fit that perfectly. Beautiful, simply beautiful.
Erin - That is for sure... it is one of our favorite combinations!
Anj - Thank you!
Joe, this look very delicious! I am another fan of strawberries and chocolate together!
Is this from the new CL issue? I think I might have missed this one, but am now adding to my list ot make!
I love the idea of the oatmeal crust, it looks so good! (just love oats!)
The filling sounds like a chocolate pudding from your description, is it right? At first I thought it would be a ganache!
Nice tart, really pretty Joe!
Ana
I too raise my hand for choc and strawberries. Combining them in a tart is spectacular. Looks great.
It looks mouthwatering, Joe!
I love strawberries and they go so well with chocolate!
Joe, I so wish I had your presentation skills. Of course on this dessert it may not matter as I think I would dive into it fairly quickly. We have had a good batch of strawberries around here even at the regular grocery store. I think I will try this one this weekend.
What a beautiful presentation! Looks delicious too!
Ana - it is from the june issue! It is kind of like a pudding, but it is more firm like a custard!
Meeta - Thanks!
Patricia - Thank you!
Laura - I get lots of pratice since we bake so often... hee hee!
Barbara - It was!
That looks gorgeous, Joey! I haven't paired strawberries & chocolate yet this year, but it'll surely change!

If the video footage that you want to edit is on a tape you'll need to hook your camera or tape player into your computer. Plug in your camera's AC adapter so it stays powered while importing. Turn on the camera and put it in VTR or VCR mode (so that it plays video, instead of recording it). Now, connect the camera to the computer using a USB or FireWire cable.
From the Capture Video menu, select Capture from video device. This opens the Video Capture Wizard which you use to import video clips.
Using the controls on the camera, advance or rewind the tape to just a few seconds before the scene you wish to save. Play the tape, and press Start Capture when you want to begin saving to the computer. Hit Stop Capture when the scene is finished.
The video is saved as clips, in the proprietary Windows Media Format. The Capture Wizard lets you know how much video you have imported, in terms of time and file size. It also tells you how much space is left on the drive. | http://desktopvideo.about.com/od/desktopediting/ss/startmm_3.htm | 2013-05-18T10:53:47 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
In May 1960, the former Nazi SS officer Adolf Eichmann was abducted by the Israeli Secret Service, strapped into a seat on an El-Al commercial flight and taken to Israel, where he would then be tried and sentenced to death for his instrumental role in the murder of six million Jews.
Eichmann began his career with the feared Nazi SS Sicherheitsdienst as a file clerk, constructing a detailed data base on Freemasons. Eventually, he was appointed director of the so-called Scientific Museum of Jewish Affairs, where he managed a massive extortion racket, extracting the wealth of Austrian Jews in exchange for their safe passage out of Austria. His subsequent recommendation for the deportation of European Jews to the island of Madagascar was not approved.
Eichmann served as recording secretary for the Wannsee Conference in January 1942, after which he was appointed transport administrator for the Final Solution. The former file clerk thereby became responsible for the collection, sorting and delivery of six million human “packages” to the death camps, a thanato-logistical network requiring both scrupulous attention to detail and absolute ideological commitment to the ultimate objective.
EICHMANN BOX: BULLET PROOF
In 1961, the distinguished political philosopher Hannah Arendt persuaded New Yorker magazine to assign her as correspondent for the trial, resulting in a series of reports that were later published as a book, Eichmann in Jerusalem with its resonant and provocative subtitle, A Report on the Banality of Evil. Arendt observed an unimpressive everyman sitting inside a bullet proof glass box. Fidgeting with a pencil and fiddling with his glasses, he looked to her like a postal clerk, a typical German civil servant.
Elsewhere in 1961, a Yale psychologist named Stanley Milgram began a lengthy series of behavioral experiments designed to explore the limits of obedience within a situation defined by both power and authority. As he writes in his 1974 summary opus Obedience To Authority:.
OBEDIENCE BOX?
Unable to perceive an exit from the tightly controlled situation, though often clearly suffering severe distress, the majority of Teachers in the study eventually delivered shocks to the Learners, all the way to the maximum danger level.
While openly acknowledging the massive historical difference between the German death network and his Yale psychology lab, Milgram references Arendt’s phrase “the banality of evil” as a concise way of capturing the human proclivity to perform the most morally abhorrent deeds when such deeds are perceived to be obligations within tightly defined and contractual roles, monitored and reinforced by a clearly recognized authority.
DEEP STRUCTURAL BOX
In Eichmann in Jerusalem, Arendt had written in.”
A year later, Leonard Cohen released a collection of poems titled Flowers For Hitler, including:
All There Is to Know about Adolf Eichmann

In May 2011, Eichmann’s bullet proof box was transported to Berlin for the first time, to feature in an exhibition within the Topography of Terror on the exact site of the former Reich Main Security Office, where memory traces of Eichmann’s DNA might still be detected. The exhibition questions Arendt’s analysis of Eichmann as the embodiment of her phrase “banality of evil”, contending that as a high ranking official in the SS and underling to genocidal fanatics such as Heydrich and Himmler, he was a true believer motivated not just by duty but by conviction. Letter perfect in his role as recording secretary in the formulation of the Final Solution, he then pursued its practical application with ideological fervor. Neither obedient civil servant nor the human embodiment of demonic evil, Eichmann was rather a remorseless Nazi fully conscious of his role within the meticulously networked death machine. An annotated map charts Eichmann’s business trips to sites like Auschwitz, Sobibor and Treblinka, to assess efficiency at the sites where packages became corpses.
The exhibition points out that Arendt did not attend the entire trial, and thus did not witness the unraveling of Eichmann’s “just following orders” defense upon being confronted with evidence of his interview by fellow ex-Nazi Willem Stassen, during which Eichmann told Stassen that he regretted not having exterminated even more fervently: I could have done more and should have done more. Meanwhile, Eichmann’s bullet proof box has returned to Israel, and Stanley Milgram’s obedience box remains on display inside the University of Akron’s Center for the History of Psychology:

Cards to address Garcia's status before Game 5
Left-hander will likely seek third opinion on injured pitching shoulder
WASHINGTON -- Accompanied by team physician George Paletta, Jaime Garcia traveled to New York on Thursday to have orthopedic surgeon David Altcheck provide a second opinion on his ailing left shoulder.
Garcia returned to Washington later in the day, but he offered few details about Altcheck's recommendations. Garcia noted that while Altcheck "answered more of my questions," he'll likely seek a third opinion from Dr. James Andrews before determining the next course of action.
A Cardinals spokesperson said that general manager John Mozeliak will address Garcia's status before Game 5 of the National League Division Series on Friday (7:30 p.m. CT, TBS) after "going through a final few things."
Following an abbreviated start on Monday, Garcia underwent a magnetic resonance imaging exam of his left shoulder, which has given him problems multiple times this year. Paletta diagnosed Garcia with a rotator cuff strain and shoulder inflammation.
Garcia has been taken off the Cards' NLDS roster and is not expected back this postseason, should St. Louis advance to the World Series. The question now is whether the left-hander will try to address the issue simply with rest and rehab, or if he will undergo a corrective surgical procedure which could jeopardize part or all of the 2013 season.
Garcia sat out for 2 1/2 months this summer in the hopes of correcting the left shoulder strain merely through focused rehab. He returned to pitch nine regular-season games without issue, but felt discomfort throughout his only postseason start. Garcia lasted just two innings in the Game. | http://detroit.tigers.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20121011&content_id=39715302&vkey=news_stl&c_id=stl | 2013-05-18T10:22:18 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Irish Aid’s assistance to the people of Palestine is poverty focused with an emphasis on humanitarian and development assistance. It aims to help the Palestinian people build their institutions and infrastructure in a difficult economic and political environment and strives to ensure that assistance to Palestine helps those who are most in need. As part of its commitment to assist the people of Palestine, Ireland opened a Representative Office in Ramallah in 2000.
In 2007, over €7.5 million was provided by Irish Aid to meet the humanitarian and development needs of the Palestinian people. This represented a 70% increase on the amount provided in 2005 and included support for the delivery of basic services, humanitarian assistance in the form of core funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), as well as support for human rights and democratisation initiatives, rural development and micro-projects focused on social regeneration.
At a pledging conference for the Palestinian State on 17 December 2007, Minister of State for Overseas Development, Michael Kitt T.D., pledged additional assistance of €40 million to the Palestinian people to assist in recovery, reconstruction and development efforts, in the context of political agreement. This sum will include significant support for the Palestinian Authority as it builds the institutions of democratic statehood, encourages sustainable economic development and provides vital social services to the Palestinian people, prioritising the poorest sections of society.
The Irish Government is committed to addressing the grave humanitarian situation facing the particularly vulnerable Palestinian refugee population. Irish Aid funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) was increased in 2007 to €3.8 million and a commitment was made to maintain the same level of funding in 2008 and 2009. UNRWA is responsible for the delivery of basic services, including education, health and social services, to over 4.4 million Palestinian refugees in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, Jordan and Syria. | http://dfa.ie/home/index.aspx?id=54478 | 2013-05-18T10:41:18 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

I might not be a Cowboys fan , But people are going to say any and every thing about the Super Bowl. I’m sure other stadiums have had some issues as well.
Somebody always gets disapointed about something. Hell I wanted to go to the game but knew I could not afford it therefore I had a front row seat. If you are going to –itch you should have stayed at home. Also don’t be hating on Jerry Jones World ( aka Cowboys Stadium ) Game Over.

This former beauty queen—Miss Maryland United Teenager, 1981—runs her family’s towing company and is proud of their “service with a smile.” For date nights with her husband, Joe—her high school sweetheart!— she’s well versed at making a day-to-night style transition. She shares her tips on looking youthful and the surprise discovery that upended her life at 45.
Being a beauty queen is hard work
The year I held that title was a lot of work! My responsibilities included traveling to other state pageants, participating in parades, attending lots of local functions and volunteering. I also had to compete in the national phase of the competition. I didn’t win, but I competed well and had lots of fun. I realized after that pageant that I’d probably never do another one.
Life’s rich pageant
I was never sure if the other girls in the pageant wanted to do it or if their mothers wanted them to. I would tell anyone who asked if their daughter should compete in pageants that they should do it only if she wanted to.
A beauty queen’s best skincare advice
Use sunblock, don’t bake in the sun, use sunblock, wash your face with good products morning and night, use sunblock, eat a healthy diet, and use sunblock. Laughing helps, too. My boys—my husband, Joe, and son, Ryan —make me laugh every single day.
You’d never guess that …
When I was 45 years old, my father told me that I had an older brother who was put up for adoption at birth. I was stunned, but my heart quickly knew that there was a brother somewhere and he was mine.
Long-lost brother
Amazingly, I was able to find my brother, Chris, and contact him within 13 months of beginning my search; we were able to hug shortly thereafter. I’ve actually written a children’s book about the “once upon a time” of Chris’ adoption, how we found him and how he came to discover his roots.

What are your favorite foods?
The local summer produce in my area. I live for corn, cucumbers, squash, watermelon and tomatoes. Veggies and fruit, chopped up and eaten, or simply dressed with olive oil, fresh herbs and sea salt—nothing better!
Favorite movie and why?
Anything starring Denzel Washington. Hands down, he’s my all-time favorite actor. He can make you love him or hate him in a most convincing way. But what I really love about him is his genuine nature when he’s not in a movie. If I could meet one movie star, he would be the one.
How do DHC products make you feel?

FYI the script tag is attempting to insert itself into the title of posts when I hit reply to a post in a lot of threads. Although not in this one ironically enough. And to head off the immediate "it all you" posts it's not happening client side.
Right, we have sorted this latest attack out so all pages are clean. They are determined to say the least. However we are making further changes now to put a stop to this which is really inconvenient for everyone. We are doing our very best to deal with these attacks and we are watching it it 24/7. If anyone spots anything before we do, I urge you to send an email to paul@incgamers.com, not just a PM.
Did you get the possible SQL injection method page I had sent you on IRC?
There are several XSS vulnerabilities related to the way the URL button works in the wysiwyg editor as well.
Bowzer, those XSS vulnerabilities should be patched in the latest Vbulltion (which this is) I didn't see any other methods you sent. Can you drop me a PM to make sure I have not missed anything you haven't?

Normally when I take the bus to and from work every day, I bring along my iPod so I can listen to music or BBC Global News podcasts, to distract myself from the 1 hour+ journey. Or, if the mood strikes, I’ll listen to the bus radio, which normally blasts Arabic music the whole way up.
I had a driver the other day who was bouncing and dancing in his chair, singing along to Fairuz, an iconic Lebanese singer who had her hey-day in the 1960s & 1970s. I love it! And better yet, yesterday, my driver was blasting a mix of NSync and Backstreet Boys – I felt like I was on a high school field trip – brilliant.
Today, alas and alack, I forgot my beloved iPod. Ah well, I obviously get a kick out of Fairouz and NSync sing-a-longs, so I wasn’t too disappointed. When I switched buses in Dora, I was happy to hear that the radio was switched, at least briefly, to news and traffic updates – I was running a bit late and I wanted to know how bad the traffic was going to be – not like knowing would make me arrive any faster, but still. You know how it is. And so…
Announcer: And now, Layla with the traffic.
Layla: There is too much traffic today. God help us and God bless you all.
Announcer: Thank-you Layla. And now for some Fairouz!
….
Shou??? What???
I actually started laughing out loud on the bus, which drew strange stares from my fellow passengers, who all seemed to find this report completely normal. That’s it?!? That’s the entire traffic report?? No mention of which highways have traffic or where it stops or starts, which direction the traffic is going in?? Nope.
I told a Lebanese friend about it later, expecting her to laugh at how ridiculous it was, and instead she just looked at me, completely straight faced and serious, and said, “Hiyati, it’s so true. There is too much traffic in Lebanon. God help us!”
I give in – who needs traffic reports anyway?

enteritis en·ter·i·tis (ěn'tə-rī'tĭs)
n.
Inflammation of the intestinal tract, especially of the small intestine.
enteritis
inflammation of the intestines (especially of the small intestine), caused by irritants, poisons, viral or bacterial infections, or unknown factors. The symptoms are extremely variable but usually include continuous or intermittent diarrhea, occasionally bloody, accompanied by painful abdominal cramps. Fever is common and sometimes overshadows the digestive symptoms; serious complications may occur, especially in infants and the elderly. Enterocolitis involves the colon as well as the small intestine, and gastroenteritis includes stomach inflammation. Regional enteritis (ileitis, or Crohn disease) is a chronic inflammation that, in its classic form, is confined to the terminal portion of the ileum, the portion of the small intestine farthest from the stomach. In all forms of enteritis, treatment is usually directed toward relief of symptoms, with anti-inflammatory agents playing an important role.

Dear Brother Emmett
I received your very kind letter a few days ago I was very much delighted to hear from you again for it had been two week�s since we had a letter from you. Mother received a letter from Mrs Mathewes the same time, she was quite well she is very anxious to come to Woodville to teach if she can get a situation the reason that she is so anxious to come is so that she may be able to attend church I hope she may come I would like very much to see her. All of us here were invited to a wedding last night at Mr Harris's one of his daughters was married they thought at one time that the young man would not get there in time it was ten oclock before he arrived, all the guests were gathered and they seemed be very impatient the reason that he was so late comming was that the roads were in a dreadful condition we had a very pleasant time The war does not seeme to prevent people from getting married I believe that there has been more marriges since the war then there were before. Well Brother Emmett what do you think about the prospect of our having peace in the Spring? I hope that we may but then | http://digital.library.msstate.edu/cdm/compoundobject/collection/ASERL/id/369/rec/18 | 2013-05-18T10:23:52 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Abstract
Operating frequencies in the gigahertz range is creating an increased need for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing. In the United States, FCC regulations require conformance to radiated and conducted emissions specifications. An EMC laboratory was established at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo (screen room, test instrumentation, and software) and an experiment was developed to explore conducted emissions effects. This paper will describe the test configuration, explain the calibration procedure needed to acquire accurate measurements, and illustrate measurement techniques applied to two example systems. In addition, the data collection process is illustrated through software donated by CKC Laboratories (EMC specialists). To verify the functionality of the laboratory and to assess measurement accuracy, two 12V/15W switching power supplies are characterized for conducted emissions performance; one as supplied by the vendor (KGCOMP) and a second unit with the EMC filters removed. The noise spectrum for both units are plotted against frequency and compared to FCC specifications. The unaltered unit is shown to be in compliance, thus verifying the accuracy of the test procedure and instrumentation.

Prevalence of HIV risk-related behaviors among undocumented Central American immigrant women in Houston, Texas, 2010
Abstract
The primary aim of this dissertation research is to provide epidemiological data on HIV risk-related behaviors among undocumented Central American immigrant women living in Houston, Texas. Between February and May 2010, we used respondent driven sampling (RDS) to recruit 230 Guatemalan, Honduran, and El Salvadoran women, ages 18 to 50 years, living in Houston without a valid United States visa or residency papers. RDS is a probability-based sampling method that utilizes social networks to access members of hidden populations that lack a sampling frame. Participants completed an interview regarding their demographics, access to and utilization of healthcare services, HIV testing, and sexual behaviors. Data from this study were used 1) to describe the prevalence of sexual HIV risk-related behaviors among undocumented Central American immigrant women, comparing those who recently immigrated to the U.S. (within the past five years) to those with more established residency (of over five years); 2) to describe the prevalence of lifetime HIV testing and evaluate its associated factors in this target population; and 3) to describe the effectiveness of RDS to access members of this target population. ^ As described in Paper 1, there was a generally low prevalence of individual HIV risk-related behaviors (i.e., multiple, concurrent, convenience, and casual sexual partnerships) among the undocumented Central American immigrant women in this study. However, there was evidence of HIV risk due to unprotected sex with male partners who have concurrent sexual partnerships. We identified recent immigrants as the subpopulation at greatest risk, as they were significantly more likely than established immigrants to have multiple and/or concurrent sexual partners. As described in Paper 2, the lifetime prevalence of HIV testing was almost 70%. After adjusting for age, number of years living in the U.S., income security, and resource barriers, lifetime HIV testing was significantly associated with being from Honduras, having more than a sixth grade education, having a regular healthcare provider, and having knowledge of available healthcare resources. Finally, as described in Paper 3, RDS was an effective method for obtaining a diverse sample of Central American immigrant women in Houston. ^ This project is the first to use RDS to conduct an HIV behavioral survey among undocumented Central American immigrant women. Our results will inform the design of future research studies and the implementation of HIV prevention activities among undocumented Central American immigrants in the U.S.^

MARK MADISON: Hi, I'm Mark Madison, and it's June 30th, 2010, and we're doing a live Podcast from the Student Conservation and Climate Congress. It's our second annual gathering at the National Conservation Training Center in Shepherdstown, West Virginia, and today we have one of our speakers who spoke this morning, Peter Essick, who is a photographer, a photojournalist for the last 23 years. He does a lot of stories for National Geographic and other outlets and he's particularly taken some stunning images on global climate change around the world.
So, Peter, thank you so much for joining us here.
PETER ESSICK: Thank you. Nice to be here.
MARK MADISON: And we also have Emily Jenkins, who works at NCTC, who will be joining me in asking Peter a few questions.
And, Peter, we wanted to just ask you first: What made you want to become a photographer?
PETER ESSICK: Well, I took a photo class in high school, and I guess-- it sort of found my passion right away, and I knew that was what I wanted to do. It took me several years after that to figure out to make a living doing it. I ended up going through college and getting a degree in business, but eventually went back to the University of Missouri in photojournalism and was fortunate enough to get a summer internship at National Geographic magazine, and that's sort of how I got my foot in the door at National Geographic. But I found my passion for photography in a high school photo class.
MARK MADISON: That's great. And you're speaking to high school students this week. So hopefully you inspired a few future photojournalists.
PETER ESSICK: Great. I hope so, too.
MARK MADISON: And one of the things you're famous for is your photos of global climate change. How do you visually tell that story as a photographer?
PETER ESSICK: Well, I first started to do research by looking at science and nature articles that were peer-reviewed science papers, and I tried to think of ones that seemed to me to tell a compelling story or had a lot of solid proof that something was changing, and then I had to contact the scientists themselves and see if they were doing some active field work and see if I could work their schedule into my schedule and to go out and-- but that was one of the core principles of that story, was to make sure that all the pictures were accurate and that they had some scientific backing. And then also we had to make sure that there was some visual side to it that could make a compelling picture for National Geographic.
MARK MADISON: Great.
EMILY JENKINS: What was the most interesting adventure that you went on to take pictures?
PETER ESSICK: Well, we like to think the most interesting is the next story. I've been to about 100 countries now and all 50 states, and so it's sometimes hard to-- hard to remember them all sometimes and to sometimes choose, but I loved the story down in Patagonia. I think for a landscape photographer, that's almost like heaven. You have dramatic lighting, dramatic mountains, weather, glaciers, forests.
I did a story in Finland in the winter, and that was a very great experience for me visually just to see sort of the frozen north land.
So it's hard for me to pick one place. Often people think that the fjord lands, Norway, Patagonia, southeast coast of Alaska are the most beautiful areas of the world. So I tend to agree with that from a landscape perspective.
EMILY JENKINS: That's awesome. You have such beautiful pictures, especially of the Glacier National Park. Those are awesome.
PETER ESSICK: Thank you.
EMILY JENKINS: How do you hope to inspire the Student Climate and Conservation Congress kids?
PETER ESSICK: Well, I guess if there was one message, it would be just to follow their passion, whatever they're passionate about. I've found that the artists that I admire most are those that if you're passionate about grizzly bears and really want to tell the world what a great animal that is, you'll probably-- either with your writing or your photography, you'll do well. And if it's photography, photography is a difficult field now, print journalism is difficult, but I still try not to discourage people from getting into it. There are ways to get around that and find new outlets for it. But I think you have to first find the area that you really are passionate about.
MARK MADISON: You seem particularly passionate about climate change and conservation. Were there other influences that made you interested in the environment?
PETER ESSICK: Well, it started with my father. He was a science teacher, and he was also an outdoorsman. He liked to go backpacking and hiking and skiing. So he was my first influence, definitely, with the love of the outdoors.
I think since I've become a father myself I've gotten really interested in some of the environmental issues. The great environmentalist David Brower had a quote that said that, "Environmentalists sometimes don't make the best neighbors, but they make great ancestors." So I like to think that my photos will, you know, help make the world better for him now as far as-- when you start thinking about climate, I think a lot of the
problems, the potential problems, are going to come up in his lifetime and maybe even in his children's lifetime. So, trying to look ahead to that as far as-- and that's, I guess, having-- becoming a father has made me more aware of that.
MARK MADISON: That's great.
Your photos have appeared on the National Geographic cover story on global warming and "An Inconvenient Truth," and an audio Podcast really doesn't do them justice. Is there a web site or something where people could go if they wanted to learn more about you or your photos?
PETER ESSICK: There is the National Geographic, on their web site they have a contributors-- I do have some of my photos, it's called rayoflightphotographs.com. My wife and I have a web site where we sell posters and note cards of some of my landscape photos. So you can look at the landscape photos there.
MARK MADISON: Well, Peter, thank you so much for coming to the second annual Sc3 Conference. The students obviously loved it, and they swarmed you afterwards with a lot of questions. I think it was very inspirational, and I appreciate your time to do this quick audio Podcast, and I want to thank all of you who took the time to listen to this Podcast.
PETER ESSICK: Great. Thank you very much. Nice to be here.

Everything changes: Simon Cowell admits Gary Barlow may not return as an X Factor judge
Despite managing to guide one of his acts into the grand final and finishing as a runner-up on last year's X Factor, Gary Barlow may not return to the ITV1 show.
Music mogul and X Factor supremo Simon Cowell admitted that although Gary was a firm favourite with fans he might not be able to return this year because of his busy schedule.
Cowell said that the 41-year-old will have a lot on his plate this year with his day job being a member of Take That.
Busy boy: Gary Barlow may not return to The X Factor this year because of Take That commitments
He told the Sun: 'This show takes over your life, it is not a two day a week show.'
Take That are planning to release a new album and in order to promote it Gary would need to be with the band a lot of the time travelling up and down the country and through Europe.
Simon said to the newspaper: 'I always thought that with Gary he would have the Take That commitment in 2012.
Rain man: Simon Cowell says the X Factor is time consuming
'But there has to be a certain amount of unpredictability with this show, it is what keeps people interested.'
According to reports, all of the new judges found the show very time consuming last year and were surprised by how much it took over their lives.
The 2011 series of X Factor UK – with new judges Gary Barlow, Tulisa Contostavlos and Kelly Rowland joining Louis Walsh – found itself being regularly beaten in the ratings war by BBC rival Strictly Come Dancing.
Despite in-fighting between the judges and controversy surrounding contestant Frankie Cocozza, the series averaged 14.13million viewers, with 15.5million tuning in to watch Little Mix crowned the winners.
However, the previous year, a record 19.4million watched Matt Cardle beat Rebecca Ferguson to the crown.
He told The Sun: 'I got a bit too cocky. We got a big wake-up call.
'We went into 2011 thinking, ''It's all going to be easy'' and of course it wasn't. It was the year my ego was put in check.'

Just in case this has bitten others: Cedet (at least the current 1.1 version) does not play well with Slime. It clobbers some Slime facilities, like arg-list documentation in the mode line, and it seems to map capital letter key bindings to lower case key bindings (like
C-c C-d A seems to run
C-c C-d a which is
slime-apropos). There are probably other annoying "step on other libraries' toes" sorts of bugs as well. My advice is that if you are seeing odd Slime behavior, or odd anything behavior, pull the Cedet stuff out of your
.emacs file and try without it.
This almost certainly has to do with the way many Cedet setup guides direct you to enable a bunch of
global-xxx-mode settings. However, I don't have any lines like this in my
.emacs file and still see odd behavior, so I wouldn't be surprised if this is the default.
I found this that briefly sketches how you might only locally enable Cedet. This seems a bit involved and there is no guarantee of it resolving the problem. So, I guess I am back to using by memory to figure out structure members like some kind of animal. | http://directed-procrastination.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html | 2013-05-18T10:52:04 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Whether the super committee reaches agreement or not, however, the deficit hawks win. If they agree, either $1.2 trillion gets cut from the budget or taxes go up by that amount; and the committee co-chair has categorically stated taxes are not going up, so that means the budget will be cut. If agreement is not reached, $1.2 trillion in cuts automatically kick in, split evenly between domestic and military spending. Either way, the economy will wind up with $1.2 trillion less in the way of purchasing power. The result will be to reduce demand, kill jobs, and put more people on the streets.
For the deficit hawks, however, it all seems to be going according to plan. The super committee is characterized as an emergency measure that was rushed through to avoid an arbitrarily imposed August deadline for freezing the debt ceiling, but it has actually been in the works for years. In 2009, it was called the “Bipartisan Task Force for Responsible Fiscal Action”. That plan died when its Senate sponsors, Judd Gregg and Kent Conrad, failed to secure 60 votes for passage in the Senate. The Gregg-Conrad bill was criticized as railroading through legislation that would unconstitutionally slash domestic services without congressional debate, but its task force would actually have been LESS autocratic than the super committee, which has sweeping powers and needs only a simple majority among its 12 members to prevail.
What has been forced out of the debate is whether cutting the budget is a good idea at all. The Peter Peterson Foundation, which has been pushing “austerity” for years, has finally gotten its way. Hedge fund magnate Peter G. Peterson was Chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations until 2007 and head of the New York Federal Reserve between 2000 and 2004. He made his fortune with the controversial Blackstone Group, which he co-founded and chaired for many years. The Peter Peterson Foundation was established in 2008 with a $1 billion endowment to raise public awareness about U.S. fiscal-sustainability issues related to federal deficits, entitlement programs, and tax policies. The money was used to spearhead a massive campaign to reduce the runaway federal debt. Hysteria over the debt then prompted Tea Party newbies in Congress to hold a gun to Congress’ head by arbitrarily capping the debt.
In the campaign to educate us to the debt’s perils, we were repeatedly warned that when foreign lenders decided to pull the plug, the U.S. would have to declare bankruptcy; that we were mortgaging our grandchildren’s futures and selling them into debt-slavery; and that all this was the fault of the citizenry for borrowing and spending too much. The American people, who are already suffering massive unemployment and cutbacks in government services, would have to sacrifice more and pay the piper more, just as in those debt-strapped countries forced into austerity measures by the IMF.
The fear-mongering, however, is a red herring. A sovereign nation can always find the money to pay debts owed in its own currency. The Federal Reserve can buy the debt itself – just as it has been doing. That alternative would effectively eliminate the problem of interest, since the Fed returns its profits to the government after deducting its costs.
Alternatively,.
Neither option need inflate prices. As long as the money is used to purchase goods and services, the result will simply be to increase demand, increasing production. Prices will not increase until the economy reaches full employment, and at that point any excess in the money supply can be taxed back to the government, keeping prices stable.
The key to all this is that our debt is owed in our own currency – U.S. dollars. Our government has the power to fix its solvency problems itself, by simply issuing the money it needs to pay off or refinance its debt. The U.S. federal debt has been carried on the books since 1835. It has NEVER been paid off during that time but just continues to grow. This has not hurt the economy, which for most of that period has been among the most vibrant in the world. The federal debt IS the money supply. All of our money except coins is created as bank debt. Historically, when the deficit has been reduced, the money supply has been reduced along with it, throwing the economy into recession.
The real problem with a growing federal debt is the interest on it, which WILL become an insurmountable burden if allowed to grow exponentially. Interest paid on the federal debt in 2010 was $414 billion, or about one-half of personal income tax receipts. That’s about as high as we dare let it go. But this problem can be eliminated either by funding the debt through the nation’s own central bank, effectively interest-free, or by the Treasury issuing the money outright, interest-free.. | http://dissidentvoice.org/2011/11/super-committee-deadlock-heads-they-win-tails-we-lose/ | 2013-05-18T10:12:32 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

3D sonar was working really well when I gave up on it & no-one has made any traction with it, since then.
Electronic warfare has been around since Vietnam and there are weapons capable of taking out any Jamming or " control signal If the military felt threatened they would alter or shut GPS off .In this post they are Talking about the old radio direction finder here they were becoming automatic and were getting computing skills worked best up to 150 miles when Loran came along and put you within 16 ft 1,000 miles away Have a good day!
This sounds like what an iPhone does to get a location fix while it is waiting to get a GPS lock...triangulating off of cell towers and known wifi base stations. The difference is that Apple has a database of all of these signal sources that was expensive to build and now must be maintained. This approach sounds like it builds the database locally, onboard, as the vehicle moves around. I'm kind of surprised we haven't seen a university or open source effort along these lines, since all the radios are getting so cheap and small...maybe it's out there and I just haven't noticed?
I can't believe it's that more difficult to jam huge swathes of frequency. Hell, a spark generator will do that. All the main useable frequencies are quite predictable, the only feasible solution seems to be inertial navigation.
Moderator Comment by Gary Mortimer on July 2, 2012 at 6:53am
Don't forget vision based systems are out there as well.
I think switching to a vision based is much more feasible than simply swapping one frequency for navigation from another Gary..
Moderator Comment by Gary Mortimer on July 2, 2012 at 8:42am
Good show Gary! There are astro nav plugins as well.......
So BAE's system can use pretty much any frequency, to me they just built a SDR that does GPS (i.e. time syncing). It's been done before. And considering the "big box", sounds about right. But I hope they solved the reflection issues that are more prevailing in terrestrial-based com systems to get clock accuracy close to what GPS provides.
Like Skyhook, this could augment, replace or support GPS. Is the hard part in integrating the hardware that is able to pick up all kinds of usable RF? A very wideband antenna setup and the dedicated hardware to crunch the numbers to make sense of it all, and referencing it with its database, sure makes for an interesting system. | http://diydrones.com/profiles/blog/show?id=705844%3ABlogPost%3A907955&commentId=705844%3AComment%3A909240&xg_source=activity | 2013-05-18T10:21:32 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
>> papacy is a very demanding role and position in our church. It takes great wisdom to reach a decision such as this and we admire him for acting prudently on behalf of our church and his own sake,” Bishop Joseph N. Latino of the Diocese of Jackson, which includes Northeast Mississippi, said in a statement.
Latino said that during nearly eight years as pope, the 85-year-old Benedict “has worked for greater understanding among faith traditions, and spoke out on behalf of truth and justice tempered with mercy. He continued to engage us in a dialogue on these truths and the dangers of moral relativism.
“We offer him our fervent prayers for fruitful retirement years and we thank him for his life of service to our church and indeed the world.”
Latino and Bishop Roger Morin of the Diocese of Biloxi offered prayers to the College of Cardinals who will convene in March to elect a successor to Pope Benedict.
University of Mississippi Law Professor Ronald Rychlak said Benedict’s decision came not from weakness, but from a desire for the good of the church.
“When Benedict’s doctor advised against going on any more trips, he saw the church needed someone more vibrant who can handle the mental and physical challenges of the papacy,” he said.
Rychlak has served as an adviser to the Holy See’s delegation to the United Nations for 12 years. The Holy See is the diplomatic arm of the Vatican, complete with embassies and presence at international summits.
“Benedict’s predecessor, Pope John Paul II, was under 60 when elected pope in 1978, so his papacy was very long by comparison, lasting until 2005,” Rychlak said. “When a pope as old as Benedict is elected, it comes with the expectation of a relatively short papacy, which allows for a smooth transition.”
Benedict said in his announcement he planned to vacate the papacy on Feb. 28, but a timeline for selecting a predecessor remains unclear. Though it is not unusual for a pope to groom an individual or group of possible candidates to take his place, Rychlak said it is dangerous to make predictions along political lines.
“A pope is not going to be elected based on which country they are from, what color their skin is, or how old they are,” he said. “The cardinals will base their decision through careful prayer to select which man best emulates Christ with wisdom, knowledge and devotion.”
However, Rychlak noted Benedict’s successor will most likely be the first pope whose ministry does not predate the Vatican II international conference of the 1960s, which sought to put the church in context with the modern world.
FRAIL-LOOKING
Christi Houin, a member of St. James Catholic Church in Tupelo, got to see Benedict in person last October, after winning a trip to Rome through a contest on a Catholic radio station. When the trip toured the Vatican, Houin said the pope passed within arm’s reach of her.
“It may sound bad, but one of my first thoughts was how frail he seemed. If you didn’t see him in person, you might not expect that,” she said.
Despite the turbulent times for the church during his papacy, Houin said Benedict himself should be remembered for his intelligence and his writing.
“He made an impression on me as a very intelligent man and also a very gentle man,” Houin said. “It was amazing to hear him speak to the audience in so many different languages, and the writing he has done has been amazing.”
Benedict’s works point to moral relativism as the cause of much of the world’s strife, according to Mary Woodward, director of communications for the Jackson Diocese. She said Benedict’s heart for the world’s needy would be missed.
“He has so much respect for the dignity of humanity, and has shown such a commitment to dialogue among different faith traditions to bring awareness to the margins of the world,” she said.
Father Lincoln Dall, priest at St. James in Tupelo, said he hoped for the next pope to pursue that same mission.
“Benedict facilitated the church becoming more global, making the church aware of different cultures living out their faith,” he said.

The Oxford Planning Commission voted Monday not to recommend the request of developer Kenny Coleman to rezone 64 acres between South Lamar Boulevard and Highway 7 South from single-family residential to multi-unit residential.
The property had originally been planned as Phase 2 of the Windsor Falls development until economic strains intervened. It was later considered but rejected for a new hospital.
"Nothing would have pleased me more than to continue that development the way it was going," Coleman said.
State law and precedent require that rezoning be based either on an error in existing zoning or a change in the neighborhood and a demonstrated public need for the requested new zoning. Coleman's market researcher said more than 20 multi-unit complexes she called all claimed little or no vacancy.
"Everywhere that I went, unanimously, everyone said that they filled up, that as soon as they opened, they were full," she said.
Attorney Carter Hitt contended that neighboring multi-family units denote a neighborhood in change, but nearby residents noted hundreds of single-family homes dominate South Oaks, Grand Oaks, Windsor Falls and Notting Hill.
A representative for Windsor Falls residents accused Coleman of several breaches as a developer, ranging from faulty slope stabilization and long-delayed paving to reneging on promises of a lake, greenspace and walking trails.
Commissioners voted 5-0 against recommending the zoning change to the Board of Aldermen, with Watt Bishop abstaining.
The Planning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend a change from multi-unit residential to general business and neighborhood business for an 8.5-acre tract just south of Highway 6 at the city's west end. Landowner Rickey Britt said a tractor dealership and a hunting store are likely occupants.

I loved their first two albums, the 3rd was a total miss imho but maybe they thought the same because since then….
Nevermind… Great share!
I came across a promo of mr. Mister which has the same exact song on both sides. Titled is it love. Both run 3:32. Numbers on the 45 are jk-14313 (pb-14313). I am unable to find this vinyl on any sight. It is in excellent condition with sleeve in very good condition. Would you be so kind as to tell me if I should use it as a frisbee, or cash it in as a retirement plan?
Um, well, neither I suppose. Sounds like you have a radio promo on your hands but, I doubt that it is highly valuable. But, all the same, it’s worth more than a frisbee dude! | http://djrichiep.com/mr-mister-is-it-love-12/ | 2013-05-18T10:31:39 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

One of my favourite Club tunes of 1982, and a huge UK hit like you mentioned. Their treatment sounded so unique and fresh back then, very different from Eddy Grant’s original and also anything else out during the same time.
Arthur is such a god when it comes to producing and remixing!
Thanks Richie!
I can retire my 12″ vinyl now. LOL!
One of the best club tracks ever!
Sorry if I haven’t been very responsive to comments lately. My father had to undergo an unexpected surgery last week and my life has been upside down for the last 8 or 9 days. Thankfully, he came home yesterday and is steadily improving. If it weren’t for being able to schedule posts in advance, I probably would have missed a few days of posting as well…
For us kids of the 80s, our parents are likely in their silver senior years by now. So I can empathize totally with you, Richie.
I’m glad to hear the positive news and hopes your father makes a full recovery soon!
And kudos to you for keeping your music on during trying times!
Thanx a bunch for this one.
This was huge hit all over Europe and really big one here in Iceland.
Can’t wait to hear our rip.
P.S do you have their follow up Harder They Come?
I hope your father recovers well
Thanx
MM
Thank you. I guess today’s post answered your question?
Good to hear your father is improving!
Hope he recovers well.
Thanks
Best wishes.
Thank you

Challenge 1: Did your family have any New Year’s traditions? How was the New Year celebrated during your childhood? Have you kept these traditions in the present day?
I don’t remember much about New Year’s celebrations of my childhood. Our family of six got together with the D family of five, swapping out which home hosted the gathering. We ate Brunswick Stew and played in the basement. Was that New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day? Meh.
The only celebration that really stands out was a party I hosted on New Year’s Eve, 1969. A gaggle of eighth grade girls giggled and talked from the sleeping bags scattered on the den’s concrete pad floor. The black and white television probably showed footage of the Times Square countdown, and we probably had snacks from the kitchen just steps away. I don’t remember.
I don’t remember any conversation–but this.
Hugging a pillow tight, Humpy said, “Just think, in ten years, we won’t know each other. We won’t know where each other lives. We won’t know each other’s secrets or boyfriends or jobs. It is now 1970, and in 1980 we won’t know each other!”
The future suddenly cast a shadow into our small, snug party. We could feel its tug, its scattering hand. Someone started to cry. And we hugged each other, mourning all the losses we would have to live in the new decade. Gradually sleep overtook our eyes, clouding our vision of the future. From that brief moment, I was changed; the human capacity to imagine a future–without current companions–was awakened. It was the dawning of adulthood that dawning of 1970.

What Is The Point Of This?
This is the trailer for "REPO! The Genetic Opera" starring Paris Hilton. Paris plays some singing slut in a cheap brown wig or something. This movie looks as entertaining as a root canal. I mean the sounds from the root canal are more pleasant than the sounds from this trailer.
Skip to about 39 seconds to see Paris in action and by action I mean humiliating herself once again. The least they could do is dub her ass. Any one of her dogs can howl better than her.
The movie also stars Paul Sorvino, Sarah Brightman and Alexa Vega.
Straight to the $1 movie theaters!

The Internet wine market may soon be heating up.
With Amazon.com expected to announce a foray into online wine sales (no statement yet from the company), Wine.com, a leading online wine merchant, is trying to get some of the attention back by unveiling a new effort to increase its market share in time for the holidays.
Wine.com on Monday announced a new Wine.com “Marketplace,” designed to make it easier for consumers to purchase small-production wines domestic and imported.
These are the wines that direct shipping is made for – boutique wineries that do not have widespread distribution through the increasingly hardened arteries of the three-tier system. These wineries have had to navigate a patchwork of state regulations, permits and fees that often discourage direct shipping even while supposedly facilitating it. Wine.com, founded in 1998, has built its online wine business by working that compliance angle with the states.
,” Michael Osborn, Wine.com Founder and VP of Merchandising, gushed in a press release. “Nothing will change for the thousands of wines, both imported and domestic, with current distribution and presence with Wine.com. The Marketplace assortment will instead expand to provide greater choices to our customers.”
Under Wine.com’s new program, which had a “soft launch” earlier this year, Wine.com will handle all compliance, sales tax, warehousing, fulfillment, order tracking and customer service, as well as the expense of shipping the wine. Wineries will be responsible for delivering the wines to a licensed Wine.com storage facility. That differs from the reported Amazon model, which had the online sales giant leveraging shipping costs but leaving the actual sales and shipping to the wineries. The Wine.com Marketplace will also offer imported wines, while only Napa and Sonoma wineries were to be involved in the Amazon program.
An advantage for consumers would be that an entire order, even consisting of wines from multiple wineries, would arrive at your door in a single package. That could reduce the hassle factor of coming home and finding the FedEx or UPS sticker on your door informing you that your wine will be bouncing around in an un-air conditioned truck for another day. For an upfront annual fee of $49, all of your orders will ship free.
Wine.com says it ships 2.5 million bottles a year. The Marketplace will begin by shipping to 20 states, including Virginia, and the District, but not Maryland.
The Wine.com press release did not identify wineries that will be represented in their new Marketplace, so it will be interesting to see how this program differs from the website’s regular offerings. (Do we really need Apothic Red shipped directly to our homes? I guess so: It is one of Wine.com’s top selling wines, according to the website. Perhaps people are embarrassed to be seen buying it in a store?)
And we really won’t be able to see the Marketplace. A publicist told me there will be no special tab on the website heralding these wines – they will be blended into the shopping list for consumers in the 20 states where they are available. That strikes me as a little cynical – many wine lovers would probably enjoy browsing this special list, like a distinct shelf in the local wine store.
Even if the new Marketplace is simply an effort to add more small-production wines to Wine.com’s extensive sales list, any additional chink in the armor of the three-tier system is welcome news for wine lovers. | http://dmwineline.wordpress.com/2012/11/07/wine-com-lines-up-to-challenge-amazon-just-in-case/ | 2013-05-18T11:01:25 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
At 678 Queen Street West sits a fantastical restaurant with a Czech in its step, Czehoski (cha hos key). A Czech butcher shop and deli for more than 75 years…now a hip restaurant and bar on Queen Street West. Today the space offers a hip and contemporary dining experience with a blend of downtown sophistication and heritage warmth. The chef flirts with standard Western Cuisine that reflect a love for classic comfort foods.
On my first visit to Czehoski I glanced through the menu, made my decisions and when the waitress arrived was delighted to hear that for one night only the chef was offering, Dolly. Dolly apparently was the pig he had been taking care of for years and had recently butchered. The age old rumor that a pet once loved tastes better than farmed cattle is indeed true! It’s important to have a relationship with the food you are eating.
I enjoyed the restaurants poutine (which assert is one of the best three in the city), mac n cheese (which is served with chorizo sausage and lima beans), and Dolly which was a cut of our pet pig with beans, cabbage and a sweet sauce that left the tongue feeling of velvet.
#6 restaurant reviewed in Ontario since moving to Toronto in 2010.

If the problem with U.S. policy toward South Asia during the Cold War was too little sustained attention by Washington, the challenge now may be too much. The super-priorities of counterterrorism and the war in Afghanistan represent important national security goals for the United States. But the sheer diversity of U.S. policy interests across South Asia makes coherent, long-range strategy more difficult.
A new Asia Society report, The United States and South Asia after Afghanistan, suggests there is an opportunity to recalibrate U.S. policy toward South Asia — drawn from more than 90 interviews with experts and former practitioners throughout the interagency.
Long-term perspective is difficult when short-term priorities crowd one’s inbox. The daily challenges of South Asia policy make long-range planning difficult. Administrations are measured on what they do, not how they think, but the risk is that strategy gets parked to one side.
The good news is the Obama administration has worked hard to develop a long-range economic strategy for South Asia — the “New Silk Road,” a vision of economic integration and improved regional relations. But connecting the countries of South Asia with each other and their neighbors may not be enough.
China is rising as an actor in South Asian. Its trade with the countries of South Asia is growing fast, and other Asian states such as Japan are taking note. The United States has responded — no longer allowing the extraordinary situation of the 1990s to persist, where contact between U.S. assistant secretaries of state working on South and East Asian policy was practically non-existent.
Now, a range of exchanges, talks, and visits reflect greater policy connectivity within the State Department and between those leading on South and Central, South East, and East Asian policy. Bob Blake, the assistant secretary for South and Central Asia, visits Beijing, for instance, while Kurt Campbell, the assistant secretary for East Asia and the Pacific, goes to Delhi.
As the Obama administration continues to rebalance its policy priorities toward Asia, there is a tremendous opportunity to build upon the policy accomplishments of recent years. A range of engaged, thoughtful officials from across the interagency have an opportunity to take stock, peer forward, and generate an integrated strategic approach to South Asia as a whole.
India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and China are key state actors, but so are the other states of South Asia, which are all too often reduced to the briefest of mentions. Bangladesh, Nepal, and Bhutan are close neighbors of China and have the potential to contribute to broader regional stability and prosperity, both through enhanced trade and their energy potential. As maritime trade grows ever more important for both China and South Asia, Sri Lanka and the Maldives gain rising relevance for policy makers.
These are all good reasons for Washington to renew its focus and attention on South Asia on the eve of the second Obama administration. To that end, the report, The United States and South Asia after Afghanistan, draws on the collective wisdom of past policy makers toward the region to make a series of specific recommendations — framed by a set of important principles to help guide the incoming diplomatic team. These are:
The complete report is available for download here. Launch events will be taking place on Dec. 11 at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in Washington, on Dec. 12 at Asia Society's headquarters in New York, and on Dec. 20 at the Observer Research Foundation in New Delhi, India. | http://docenthk@asiasociety.org/blog/asia/whats-next-us-policy-toward-south-asia | 2013-05-18T10:23:12 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [

Pointer to a message handle which was previously opened by
OCIMessageOpen().
The message number
Pointer to a destination buffer for the retrieved message. If
buflen is zero, then it can be a
NULL pointer.
The size of the destination buffer.
If
buflen is not zero, then the function copies the message into the buffer pointed to by
msgbuf. If
buflen is zero, then the message is copied into a message buffer inside the message handle pointed to by
ms *hndl, OCIError *errhp, OCIMsg *msghp, CONST OraText *product, CONST OraText *facility, OCIDuration dur ); message handle for return.
A pointer to a product name. The product name is used to locate the directory for messages. Its location depends on the operating system. For example, in Solaris, the directory of message files for the
rdbms product is
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms.
A pointer to a facility name in the product. It is used to construct a message file name. A message file name follows the conversion with
facility as prefix. For example, the message file name for the
img facility in the American language is
imgus.msb, where
us is the abbreviation for the American language and
msb is the message binary file extension.
The duration for memory allocation for the return message handle. It can have the following values:
It first tries to open the message file corresponding to
hndl. If it succeeds, then it uses that file to initialize a message handle. If it cannot find the message file that corresponds to the language, then it looks for a primary language file as a fallback. For example, if the Latin American Spanish file is not found, then it tries to open the Spanish file. If the fallback fails, then it uses the default message file, whose language is
AMERICAN. The function returns a pointer to a message handle into the
msghp parameter.

This chapter contains these topics:
Section 96.1, "Purging Closed A/R Records,"
Section 96.2, "Purging Batch Receipts."
To reduce the size of your A/R tables and conserve system disk space, purge your A/R information periodically.
From Accounts Receivable (G03), enter 27
From A/R Advanced and Technical Operations (G0331), choose an option under the A/R Purge heading
To reduce the amount of records in your A/R ledger, purge your closed A/R records. Purging closed A/R records:
Removes the closed records from the A/R Ledger table (F0311) if:
The G/L date of the transaction is on or before the "as of" date set in the processing options.
The open amount is zero.
The transaction is posted.
The Number of Payments (Recurring Invoices) is equal to zero.
Copies purged records to the Purge - A/R Ledger table (F0311P)
For reporting purposes, you can keep the purge table on your system or copy it to another medium, such as a diskette or tape. If you keep it on your system and you purge again, the system adds newly purged records to the existing table.
Caution:When you run this program ensure that you type the correct purge date before you press Enter. If you accidentally submit a purge for processing, put the job on hold and contact your system administrator.
Coordinate when you run the purge programs for all the systems that you use.
Back up the A/R Ledger table.
Be careful not to purge A/R ledger information that may be needed by other systems, such as Sales Order Processing or Contract/Service Billing.
After records are copied to the A/R Purge file, they are deleted from the A/R Detail file. Space will not be regained on your system until the A/R Detail file (F0311) is "reorganized" and the A/R Purge files have been moved to tape or diskette. The reorganization procedure removes the space created by deleted records in the file and orders the existing records based on your request. Reorganize Files (P98999) is a technical program that should only be executed by the system administrator.
Since records for multiple years could be written to the F0311P file, you could rename this file to differentiate it from A/R transactions purged with different G/L dates. If the file remains in your library and the purge is run again, records will be added to the end of the file. Once the purge is complete, it is recommended to copy the purged file to a different library, or to a tape or diskette. If you are copying them to another media, remember to clear the data in the purge files left on your system.
See Section 114.7, "Purge Closed A/R Records (P03800)."
To prevent the system from purging recurring invoices, set the Number of Payments field to equal (EQ) Zero.
To avoid unpredictable results while purging, do not change the following data sequence:
Document Company
Document Number
Document Type
To remove posted receipt records from your A/R system, purge batch receipts.
Purging batch receipts removes posted receipts from the Batch A/R Receipt Application table (F0312). You can copy the purged records to a purge table and then move the purge table to a diskette or tape and delete it from your hard drive. This lets you regain disk space and still access the purged records, if necessary.
This purge uses a specific version of the P00PURGE program (ZJDE0009) that is set up to purge the F0312. | http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26228_01/doc.93/e21489/ch_purge_ar_info.htm | 2013-05-18T10:53:59 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Your installation contains executable script files that simplify invoking the Derby tools. On UNIX systems, these files might need to have their default protections set to include execute privilege.

Diagnosis
The doctor will ask about your child’s symptoms and medical history and do a physical exam. Tests may include the following:
- Stress test —tests how the body responds to exercise, which can help in detecting heart and lung problems
- Echocardiography —uses sound waves (ultrasound) to examine the size, shape, and motion of the heart
- Transesophageal echocardiogram —images of the heart are taken using sound waves with a sound wave transducer being put down the throat
- the body as a dye is injected through the catheter. This allows angiograms (photos) to be taken of the blood vessels and the heart.)
- Chest x-ray —uses radiation to take a picture of structures inside the body
- Blood tests
Treatment
Treatment focuses on controlling symptoms and preventing complications. Talk with the doctor about the best treatment plan for your child. Treatment options include:
Medications
Medicines may be used to help maintain proper and regular heart function. They may also be used to remove excess fluid from the body. If your child has an arrhythmia, he may need anti-arrhythmic drugs. He may also need blood-thinning medicine.: 06/2012 -

Causes:
- High blood pressure
- Blood in the urine
- Urinary tract infection
- Kidney stones
- Additional, less common symptoms may include:
- Nail abnormalities
- Painful menstrual periods
- Joint pain
- Drowsiness
If you experience any of these symptoms, do not assume it is due to PKD. These symptoms may be caused by other, less serious health conditions. If you experience any of them, see your physician.
Diagnosis.
Recent research has led to the creation of several drugs that may prevent cysts from developing. An example is somatostatin, which has been studied in humans and may one day be available to prevent polycystic kidneys from developing.
Prevention
PKD is an inherited disease and is not preventable. If you have a family history of PKD, you may want to talk to your doctor about genetic testing.

Pet Insurance. Today's Smart Choice.
A new kind of pet insurance company: We at Dogbedworks have searched the pet insurance industry and finally found Healthy Paws. Helping you care for your pet is just part of the Healthy Paws story. They are also dedicated to helping animal welfare groups grow, thrive, and, as a result, help thousands of homeless pets find new homes. So when you choose to insure your pet with Healthy Paws, you're not just protecting your pet's health, you're also helping a whole lot of less fortunate animals.
Over the past year the number of news articles written about the cost of veterinary care and the growing trend of pet health insurance has sky rocketed, creating a lot of talk and whole lot more information to research. But, don't worry! Finding the pet insurance plant that's right for you and your pet can be easy with just a couple of key points to consider.
Why pet insurance? Pet parents are not always prepared for the cost of their pet's care, considering the advanced treatments now available.

Consumers in Asia / Pacific, Middle East and Africa still treat dining and entertainment as their top spending priorities for the next six months, according to MasterCard's Survey on Consumer Purchasing Priorities.
The two categories had also figured on top in the previous survey in December 2008. The category topped the list for discretionary spend in 18 of the 21 markets across Asia/Pacific, Middle East and Africa.
Among the 10 main categories included in the MasterCard survey, spend on extracurricular activities for one's children, and on fitness and wellness are expected to be the least prone to cutbacks, revealed the 'MasterCard Worldwide Index of Consumer Purchasing Resilience', which is based on the survey findings. The index measures consumers' resistance for cutting expenditure.
According to the survey, the top priorities for expenditure for the next six months are:
Dining and entertainment: 69 per cent Fashion and accessories: 49 per cent Fitness and wellness: 36 per centConsumer electronics and children's extra-curricular activities/private tuition: 34 per cent
Dining and entertainment is also among the top three categories most resilient to cutbacks in consumer spending. It registered a score of 69 in the resilience index, behind children's extra-curricular activities / private tuition (87) and fitness and wellness (78). Consumer electronics (67) and fashion and accessories (65) also showed resilience to cutbacks. | http://domain-b.com/brand_dossier/mkt_rsrch/20090702_entertainment.html | 2013-05-18T11:02:31 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Tata Communications Ltd and Middle Eastern telecom operators will work with Tyco Telecommunications to build the Tata Global Network (TGN) Gulf cable project, Tata Telecom said in a filing with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).
Tyco Telecommunications will construct the TGN Gulf cable system for Tata Communications and its partners in the TGN Gulf project, namely Bahrain Internet Exchange, Nawras of Oman, Qatar Telecom, Mobility and Etisalat, who will each be an exclusive landing party for the TGN Gulf Cable System.
Tata Communications and its partners will build on this cable project as part of strategic relationships that will support the development of an extended portfolio of advanced telecommunications services such as global Ethernet, MPLS-based VPN, managed security, IaaS (infrastructure as a service) and global telepresence, a company release said.
"All these services are ideally suited to support both local and global enterprises, which are very active in this rapidly expanding emerging market region," the company said in its filing with the BSE.
TGN, previously VSNL Transpacific, is a submarine telecommunications cable system transiting the Pacific Ocean.
The cable system is constructed with one cable from Emi, Japan, to Hillsboro, Oregon, USA; one from Toyohashi, Japan, to Hillsboro; one from Toyohashi, Japan, to LA; and one from Toyohashi to Guam. The cables are constructed with 8 fibre pairs per cable, which at construction could support up to 96 10 Gbit/s waves. | http://domain-b.com/companies/companies_t/tata_com/20100223_Tyco_TGN_Gulf.html | 2013-05-18T10:53:28 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
Cold, hard, and emotionless statistics predict that it takes on average 21.4 weeks to land a job, and for those over 55 the hunt can last as long as 39.9 weeks. If you’re in the 100k plus snack-bracket expect for an average hunt of 30 weeks. Experts outline the top ten tips on how to be successful in your cover letter, 64 of the toughest interview questions, and the endless lists of do’s and don’ts. I feel like I’ve read them all. It is easy to talk in terms of figures and best practices; it is quite a different experience to live through it.
I’ve said it a hundred times in the past several months; sometimes you need to go through the miry clay of unemployment to learn about yourself; the good, bad and indifferent. I’ve discovered a few rare colleagues who were life-long friends in disguise; people who’ve had my back and sometimes picked me up by my collar to put me back on my feet again. I’ve been disappointed by some of my failings; and surprised at how my very strange idiosyncrasies protected me from getting a position with a company I later learned would have been a disastrous work environment.
I’ve worked hard, tirelessly in fact, putting myself out there. In the job hunt you’re aiming for one, just one, to close. It’s a win ratio that would crush any coach or sales person; it’s 100 to 1, or worse. With odds like that it is no small wonder we don’t occasionally get discouraged. Take it from me, the absolute best thing to do when you trip over your own feet and land in the mud is get up and walk again. I would get crushing news, and be back at it the same hour. It’s just what you have to do.
If I had it to do all over again I would change only two things; I would not take the first opportunity put before me without a lot of prayerful consideration. Many months ago I accepted an offer that looked too good to be true – and, as a matter of fact, it was. Secondly, I would have invested more time preparing interview responses; I spent a disproportionate amount of time on my portfolio packages and not nearly enough practicing for the interview.
If I had to do it all over again there are hundreds of things I would repeat; but only one thing stands out preeminently. I would surround myself with a network of folks waddling in the same clay I’m mucking through. These people have been my confidants, my teammates, and my friends. Nothing can replace a heart-felt, “I understand” from a person who has, and is, where I am. I’m not going to give you the pointers or statistics; frankly they are interesting but not always helpful – but let me leave you with one gem; find others going through what you are in and help them. Not for the expectation of getting something in return, but for the sheer joy that fellowship brings. | http://donnawhitney.wordpress.com/ | 2013-05-18T10:12:57 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

CALTRANS RECOGNIZED FOR ITS BICYCLE SUPPORT
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has been recognized for its employees’ achievement of logging 34,681 miles, the most by any employer in the Sacramento region,,” said Caltrans Director Will Kempton, who rode his bike from Folsom to Sacramento on May 17.
Event organizers recognized Caltrans employees Kenny Kwong, who logged the most individual miles -- 2,460 - - and Michael Pope, who rode 1,620 miles, all within the month of May. Pope, a senior bridge engineer, commutes from his home in Auburn to Sacramento twice a week, a round-trip of 92 miles.
In a brief ceremony this month at Caltrans Headquarters, Director Kempton accepted the department’s awards for sponsorship and total miles logged and acknowledged several Caltrans bicyclists for their achievements. | http://dot.ca.gov/hq/paffairs/news/pressrel/06pr13.htm | 2013-05-18T10:13:11 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |
President Obama is living up to his 2009 pledge to use the White House to honor achievers in science as much as in athletics and entertainment — no matter how young the achievers may be. Today he’s hosting the second White House Science Fair — which is essentially a fair of fairs, honoring awardees and leaders in dozens of separate competitions and programs aimed at nurturing the brightest students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics — the collection of disciplines known as STEM in education circles.
There’s more below on the White House event and related announcements by the president.
[Jan. 16, 4:18 p.m. | Update |A dispute related to a contribution here from a high school student generated threatening and racist e-mail to that student and so has been removed. Contact me at dotearth@nytimes.com if you want more information.]
Here’s a small sample of the projects and participants the president will see at the White House today:
-.
- Teenage CEO Inventing Dissolvable Sugar Packets to Reduce Waste.
Hayley Hoverter, 16, a.
- Using Genes to Improve Farming.
Maryanna McClure, a senior at Dyersburg High School in Tennessee, made history by becoming the first student from the Tennessee Future Farmers of America.
- Detroit Students Imagining the Energy-Efficient City of the Future.
The Paul Robeson/Malcolm X Academy student team from Detroit, Mich., competed in the Michigan Regional Contest of the National Engineers Week Future City Competition for the second year in a row. Lucas Cain Beal, Jayla Mae Dogan, and Ashley Cassie Thomas, all.”
- Student Designing a Robot to Connect Senior Citizens with their Families.
Concerned with the loneliness of seniors at his grandmother’s senior living center, Salesianum High School (Wilmington, Del.) student Benjamin Hylak, 14, of West Grove, Pa.,.
- Writing a Video Game that Focuses on Saving the Environment.
Hannah Wyman, 11, who attends St. Anna’s School in Leominster, Mass.,., are representing the Pike Central High School InvenTeam, one of 15.
Here’s a news release with a batch of related announcements, including details on science education investments in the president’s budget: | http://dotearth.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/02/07/obama-holds-a-white-house-science-fair/ | 2013-05-18T10:31:24 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [] |

Shake Shake Shake
Nothing like sitting around the house wondering if I should vacuum in preparation for the parent’s visitation, or eat, or work on a new song when suddenly the house starts shaking, the cats freak out, and I casually wonder if I should head outside in case the house falls down around my head because we’re having an earthquake! Woohoo! 4.4 at a 9.1km depth centered up near Santa Rosa at 20:08 PST. And the funny thing is my roommate, normally very excitable by things like this, slept through the whole thing. Bummer! If you’re ever interested in finding out where an earthquake in the Bay Area happens check out this this USGS site (thanks to stinkyporkchop for the link!).2 Comments | Catergorized: life san francisco

"Original Clean (CNET)dnld great-Update caused infection"
Pros
Simple PDF "printer" -
Cons
After a while it wants to update - this by default wants to install a lot of garbage - look up Babylon - a fine piece of doushbaggery.
Summary
I now need to get help (apparently ) to remove the Babylon, PDF Forge is gone for good!

Transparent Watercolor 18x18 cm
A grey day seemed a good day to paint oranges.
I worked too hard on this one and decided to try a new paper (Yupo) and see if I could get a little more expressive. (see below). Now if I could just get somewhere in the middle!
Transparent watercolor on Yupo 20x24 cm
Painting on yupo is kind of like painting on glass. The paint just slides around and doesn't sink in. Any of my painter friends know of a good source explaining how to paint on this stuff??
I painted these oranges along with other painters on the Virtual Sketch Site.
Visit there to see more.

Both your paintings are just amazing. I like the one on Yupo (no idea what it is). Great fluid effect.
Lovely contrast between the two. I really love the bright blue against the orange. I've never painted on yupo; it reminds me of printmaking techniques.
I think the presentation of the oranges in the top photo is really interesting but the Yupo watercolor is alive and beautiful. I think it's the freshest thing I've seen on Yupo yet.
I too, love both, but really like the Yupo one. I have tried Yupo once and didn't have as much luck as you. I'll be checking back to see what other artists suggest to you for working on it.
Beautiful shapes and colours in this. The fruit just glows. I have tried yupo too but not for anything structured. Its very much trial and error.
Nice watercolor work Carol!
Greetings..
really lovely light in both of these.
I like the Yupo a lot.. Your first attempt is still good :)
color,color,color, just beautiful
I love both versions, the looseness of the Yupo is awesome. It looks so casual and effortlessly done! Bravo!
Both of these are, as they have already said, so beautiful with glowing color. I am trying Yupo now and it is a challenge.
Hey Carol,
I love both interpretations. The dramatic contrast in the first really catches the eye.
I have never tried Yupo but I am often amazed at the results that Sandy Maudlin gets.

They are both very nice! I like how you glazed the colors on the first one, warm/cool/warm. That gave the background a lot of depth and I'm sure the original glows. I paint 5 or 6 glazes in places. Waiting to see what you do with the house painting.
The first is very dramatic and the light in the second is stunning! I love your addition of the little tag!
I love your orange paintings, especially the Yupo one - very radiant.
gorgeous! the middle ground is the hardest thing to achieve--not too loose, not too tight--in my opinion. I think I heard of an actual book just about watercoloring on Yupo. Try an internet search on that?
I really like the greens you got in the first one and the bright colors of the second.
I think your second attempt (the bottom one) is wonderful. Very exxpressive and loose. Great color. Nice work.
Wow...wow...wow... 'nuff said.
Juicy and yummy...both of these! :)
I like the yupo watercolor too.
Way too many comments for some silly oranges.I don't know how to respond except to say thank you for stopping by and being so nice!
No explanation needed, seeing as you created a terrific painting! However, I do have some great info that I can send you if you like - send me your snail mail address!
Wonderful paintings! I need to break out my Yupo after seeing the second one. Haven't yet tried it, but you've done such a fantastic job with it. How you manage to get such great work from photos is beyond me!
Hi Carol,
I like your well balanced choice of colours, namely the chroma.
When squinting I can also see that you did a good job on those values.
But the feature that I most like is the way that you managed to convey such interesting perpsective.
Kind regards,
José
Your YUPO painting is exquisite. Keep it up!!!!!! | http://drawingtelaviv.blogspot.com/2009/01/oranges.html?showComment=1232981880000 | 2013-05-18T11:02:12 | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | 1368696382261 | [
