Beautiful place, private beach (and good place to do snorkeling) and nice bungalow - we bought the cheapest one and were very happy (private, sea view, all the bulgalows seemed to us the same, the difference is only in the position). The (only one)restaurant is not really Thai, it is a bit European Thai as average tourists like. Unfortunately we had many cockroaches (!!!) in the bungalow. Twice we were ok that the stuff cleaned the bathroom, than we had to move. The Thayi stuff was nice, the only European man was not polite and very suprised we are not cool having cockroaches in the room...

We had an amazing stay enjoying the beautiful weather in an idyllic location. The restaurant was excellent and really good value with superb service by all. Fantastic swimming and snorkelling with the options to borrow equipment and organised boat trips. The bungalows were clean and well equipped and we soon got used to cold showers and limited electricity (which was fully stated on booking) would fully recommend a stay here and can t wait to go back again.

Malgré l emplacement exceptionnel de l hôtel, nous avons été déçu par : La qualité des bungalows: confort minimum Le fait de se sentir obligé d utiliser les services de l hôtel, du fait de son isolement, que celui ci facture au prix fort ( taxi boat, repas au Resto de l hôtel, petit déjeuner payant etc...)

Heron version 0.9: Modules without Global Static Data
I've recently posted Heron version 0.9 . The major new feature with this version is the module system. I am quite happy with the new module system because it makes it possible to write code which offers the convenience of using (what look like) global or static variables but without all of the disadvantages.
Most programmers know that static or global data is bad, but lets face the truth, sometimes it is just easier to define globally accessible data, rather than creating complex dependency injection frameworks.
Let me illustrate the problem with a little anecdote:
I had this problem recently where I tried to write a VM in C++. I decide that it would save quite a number of lines of code if I assumed that my VM would never be instantiated more than once, so I went ahead and used global variables for the stack, heap, instruction counter, etc.
Everything went fine until I decided I wanted continuations. In simple terms, I wanted to be able to capture the entire state of the VM, start a new VM, and place the old VM state on the stack. This would have required a bunch of new code, and would have been extremely inelegant. If only I had written the VM to begin with as a class. I decided to put the project on hold, until I Heron was ready and I would start again from scratch.
This scenario in Heron would be end much differently. All code in Heron occurs in modules. You can define module level variables, which have both module scope and module extent. Module scope looks to the average programmer like global scope, except when you realize that modules have to be instantiated in Heron before you use them.
Lets compare to Python. In Python, when you import a module, its variables have module extent, but have global scope. When another module imports the same module, these variables are overwritten. For more information on this see this StackOverflow question.
In Heron everyone who imports a module has to instantiate it. If you want to share a single module instantiation between other modules you can pass the module instance explicitly to other modules via module constructor parameters or other means.
I have written up more on Heron modules here on the Heron wiki , and you can also read up this interesting discussion on modules at lambda-the-ultimate.org.
Some other changes from previous versions of Heron to this one:
- The entry point of a program is a module function named "Main()". Previously it was the constructor of a class named "Main".
- The compile-time entry point of a program is a module function named "Meta()". Previously it was the constructor of a class named "Meta".
- The script top-level construct has been removed. For now everything has to be explicitly a module.
- Modules names must match file names.
- Modules can be inherited
- Modules can contain member variables and member functions
- User type declarations are listed after the module declaration
- When using the installer ".heron" files are automatically associated with the HeronEngine.exe
- Fixed a problem with the command-line resolution of file paths

In the world of magic, tricks and effects are very difficult to protect legally and, as a result, many unscrupulous dealers simply copy the creations of others without permission.
In an effort to help those who wish to buy ethically and support the original creators while avoiding the "new" versions of their effects, Magic Fakers was set up.
(If you are able to help us by leaving comments under the relevant tricks, we are also trying to add dates to establish when each trick was first released)

Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, November 19, 2012 – Curiosity is often said to drive science, but until the seventeenth century – the age of the so-called Scientific Revolution – it was regarded with suspicion and condemnation. What happened to liberate curiosity? Why did no question seem too vast or trivial to be ruled out of bounds? And what does the freedom to be curious really mean for science today?
On Wednesday, December 5, as part of Perimeter Institute's Public Lecture Series presented by Sun Life Financial, science writer Philip Ball will examine the rise of curiosity and its evolving role in science.
Philip Ball is a freelance writer, and previously worked for over 20 years as an editor for the international science journal Nature. He writes regularly in the scientific and popular media, and has authored many books on the interactions of the sciences, the arts, and the wider culture, including The Self-Made Tapestry: Pattern Formation in Nature, H2O: A Biography of Water, Bright Earth, Universe of Stone and The Music Instinct. His latest book is Curiosity: How Science Became Interested in Everything. His book Critical Mass won the 2005 Aventis Prize for Science Books.
Ball's lecture, entitled "Curiosity: How Science Became Interested in Everything", will be held on Wednesday, December 5 at 7:00 PM ET in Waterloo, Ontario. Tickets will be available starting Monday, November 19, 2012.
Further details can be found at www.perimeterinstitute.ca.

Since Simon Cowell left Fox's "American Idol" last year, the airwaves have been kinder to singing competition show contestants. "Idol" replacement judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler fostered a more nurturing atmosphere to great success, while NBC's breakout hit "The Voice" gave wannabe singing stars a supportive environment, swinging seats and all.
That nascent era of good feelings, of course, could end in a snarl Wednesday night with the debut of "The X Factor," which marks Cowell's return to the American TV judging arena.
The show stands to be a test of whether cruelty is poised for a comeback – or is out of tune with audiences. "The X Factor" also is shaping up as an indicator of whether Cowell – or audiences – have changed in his absence.
Cowell, whatever strong feelings he inspires, undeniably played a huge roles in the "Idol" phenomenon and the explosion of the modern talent competition TV genre over the last decade.
During the early seasons of "Idol," Cowell's criticism generally hit the mark, even if his delivery of the truth often came wrapped in nastiness. But sometime during his last season, Cowell spewed an excess of gratuitous, misplaced meanness, possibly out of boredom and frustration with a seeming decline in the talent pool. The show suffered by becoming more about the strained interplay between the judges than the singing contest.
It's probably no coincidence the coarsening of Cowell's shtick came after Paula Abdul left the show following Season 8. It's unclear, though, whether her presence on "The X Factor" will recreate the delicate, winning balance between his acerbity and her lovingly loopy affirmations. Chemistry – especially on a new show, with a somewhat different format (contestants are 12 and up) and other judges (tough-talking producer L.A. Reid and Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger) – can be unpredictable, as "Idol" learned the hard way (see: DeGeneres, Ellen and DioGuardi, Kara).
Cowell's return, and, to a lesser extent, Abdul's, have fueled the hype surrounding the show, the U.S. version of his UK hit. Cowell seems to relish the comparisons to "Idol," if only because it's good publicity – and good business sense to pretend the two Fox shows are the only major singing competitions on the tube. A promotional video released over the summer, in which Cowell, in a pink sweater, gushes over a slew of mediocre contestants singing "Tomorrow," was a clear swipe at his former show's newly nice reputation. The sequence ends with him waking up, and declaring: "What a horrible nightmare."
His biggest TV nightmare, of course, would be an "X Factor" flop. We'll see whether Cowell alters his game – or if the same old song proves as kind to him as during his dreamy "Idol" days.

Burning plays a limited engagement through December 17 at The New Group @ Theatre Row (The Acorn Theatre, 410 West 42nd Street).In emotionally charged intersecting stories spanning two eras, a contemporary black painter, who depicts shocking racial violence in his art but hides his race from the press, goes to Berlin for a gallery show only to find that his work has been misinterpreted.

Jose Diaz-Balart of Telemundo discusses the immigration order with MSNBC-TV's Alex Wagner, NBC News' Luke Russert, former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, Chicago Sun-Times reporter Lynn Sweet and BuzzFeed editor Ben Smith.
The Obama administration's announcement Friday that it would defer deporting most young illegal immigrants poses a dilemma for those who are eligible, as they must take a leap of faith that they won't jump to the head of the line for deportation if a future president rescinds the order.
Under the order, the Obama administration wouldn't seek to deport illegal immigrants under 30 who entered the U.S. as children and meet certain other residency and education requirements for the next two years. They also would be eligible to apply for work permits, the Department of Homeland Security said. DHS is the parent agency of the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The order could apply to as many as 800,000 young illegal immigrants, officials estimated. The Pew Hispanic Center, a project of the Pew Research Center, said later that even more immigrants — as many as 1.4 million children and young adults — could meet the eligibility requirements. That would be about 12 percent of the 11.2 million illegal immigrants estimated to be in the U.S. as of 2010.
But it's not at all certain how many of them will seek to take advantage of the order. That's because it requires eligible immigrants to step forward and ask for the deferment every two years.
Even though President Barack Obama said Friday that the order would "lift the shadow of deportation" over illegal immigrants who were brought to the U.S. while they were children, a future administration could choose to overturn the regulation, jeopardizing those who have identified themselves to the government as illegal immigrants.
A senior administration official, who briefed reporters on the policy Friday on condition of anonymity, conceded that "the executive can always change its mind about how to exercise discretion."
Skepticism, joy among illegal immigrants over Obama decision
NBCLatino: Obama's immigration policy shift sends ripples across the country
For Yelky Ramos, 20, a recent college graduate who came from the Dominican Republic when she was 13, the change means she should be able to get a job.
"We just hope that the way they're going to implement it is going to be fair to the undocumented youth and it won't be a trap, in which people will be applying for this type of deferral and then find themselves … (in) legal proceedings that might lead to deportation," Ramos told msnbc.com.
Even before Obama appeared in the White House Rose Garden to discuss the order Friday afternoon, Democratic campaign officials were trying to place responsibility for any such "trap" on Republicans, sending reporters "talking points" highlighting previous statements on immigration by Mitt Romney.
Romney, the presumed Republican presidential nominee, has said he would veto an immigration bill known as the DREAM Act, which would enact many of the policies the White House announced Friday. The measure has passed in the Democratic-led House but has been blocked in the Republican-led Senate.
The memos were meant to get the message out that a vote for Romney — who trails Obama by a significant margin among Latino voters — would be a vote to rescind Friday's order.
DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano told NBC News that there was no immediate danger of applicants' being targeted for deportation, saying the order would be binding for the next two years regardless of who is president. That means Romney, if elected in November, could overturn it as early as 2014, however.
Rep. Charles Gonzalez, D-Texas, chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, praised Obama on Friday for "taking action to avoid further injustices against young people."
But "a legislative remedy is still needed," he said.
Until one emerges, illegal immigrants must meet a narrowly specific set of requirements to be eligible for immunity, which DHS outlined in an eight-page document Friday:
- They must be younger than 30.
- They must have been brought to the U.S. before their 16th birthdays.
- They must have been in the country for five continuous years.
- They must have no criminal history.
- They must have graduated from an American high school, earned an equivalent degree or served in the U.S. military.
- They must pass a government background check.

In an attempt to beat the Internet at its own game, Yeasayer has decided to release all the tracks from its upcoming album Fragrant World, which isn't due in stores until August 21. Instead of just handing it over, though, Yeasayer is releasing songs on different sites hidden across the web that can only be uncovered via an online scavenger hunt. The tracks will be accompanied by visuals by Japanese artist Yoshi Sodeoka.
The Brooklyn-based group has got a thing for artful methods of dissemination: Earlier in the year, it sent out 200 hard copies of Fragrant World's first single, "Henrietta," to fans on the band's mailing list—a maneuver previewed by cryptic utterances of "HNRTTA on the band's Twitter page. Yeasayer will be tweeting similar clues to discover the rest of the tracks throughout the week—so far posting things like "DMNRDNM" and "R!E!A!G!A!N!'S!S!K!E!L!E!T!O!N!"—while "Blue Paper" has already popped up on Wired's site. Fans should begin looking soon: They'll all be taken down at 8 p.m. on August 3.

Liberty News
UPDATE: Chancellor Falwell renews support to NC teen in gun possession case
|Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr. and Cole Withrow at Commencement on May 11.
In late-breaking developments, the felony charges against Withrow were dropped in exchange for Withrow pleading guilty to a misdemeanor and accepting the prosecutor's position that he knew the shotguns were in his truck when he went to school. Falwell said this came as no surprise to Liberty.
"In a radio interview a couple of weeks ago, I was asked if Liberty would still assist Cole if he was convicted of the felony. I said yes. We knew that Cole might be convicted of a felony. We also knew that he might have to publicly take the blame, whether he was at fault or not, in order to have the charges reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor. That's how the criminal justice system works, especially in high-profile cases like this one, and I believe that is exactly what happened here," Falwell said. "I personally believe that Cole was forced to admit to more than he really knew.
"In any event, Liberty University is pleased that the charges against Cole Withrow were reduced to a misdemeanor, but we still believe this is more punishment than he deserved."
Support rises for Liberty's pledge to NC teen facing gun charges
|Cole Withrow with his sister Hannah Walker. Walker is a 2012 graduate of Liberty University and now works for Liberty University Online.
Liberty University has received national media attention after Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr. expressed his support for, and promised a scholarship to, Cole Withrow, a North Carolina high school senior who was arrested Monday for accidentally leaving a shotgun in his pickup truck in the school parking lot.
This bold stance by the university has garnered a strong show of support from all across the country. Emails and messages have been flooding in to members of administration from people pleased to see Liberty standing up for Withrow. Some have even expressed interest in financially giving to the university to create or support scholarship funds for students like Withrow.
Falwell was travelling in North Carolina when he saw Withrow's story on a local news broadcast. He noticed Withrow was wearing a Liberty T-shirt and immediately reached out to him. Falwell learned that Withrow was interested in attending Liberty but could not afford it. Falwell told him he would do whatever it takes to ensure he can attend Liberty.
Falwell later learned Withrow's sister, Hannah Walker, is a 2012 graduate of Liberty and currently works for Liberty University Online Student Accounts.
Walker said her brother is "a very caring person" who works hard and "follows through with his commitments." He is an honors student and an Eagle Scout, and Walker said he is very close to his classmates. Withrow is an avid outdoorsman and has been hunting since he was young.
"The worst part about (the arrest) is he was trying to do the right thing," Walker said.
As soon as Withrow realized the gun was still in his truck (he had just taken it on a hunting trip over the weekend), he immediately called his mother from the school's office, Walker said.
Reports indicate that a school official overheard Withrow's phone call and notified police, who arrested him before his mother arrived.
Now facing a felony charge on his record, Withrow feared he would lose his scholarships and be unable to attend college. "It weighed really hard on him," Walker said.
She said when Falwell reached out to her brother, and then to herself, it was a great encouragement and an answer to prayer.
"Just the fact that he recognized it meant a lot to my family. But for him to reach out the way that he did and call Cole … we were so overwhelmed, both of my parents were emotional and excited. It was very much of a weight lifted off," she said.
She added that Withrow always wanted to go to Liberty — he loved coming to campus events with her — but knew it would likely not be possible because of finances.
For Falwell to contact Withrow and to pledge support for him to attend Liberty, Walker said is "unbelievable."
"It is definitely a blessing. We are honored that he reached out to us. I know that Cole is really excited. The opportunity that Liberty has is something that separates Liberty from other schools. I have grown so much as a person, so much spiritually being here and I could want nothing more for my brother — to see God work in his life. I am not the same person I was four years ago. I cannot wait to see how Cole grows and transforms as a person in his experience here, too."

Hummels: We are respected as a team now
Wednesday 1 May 2013
Article summary
Borussia Dortmund could not contain their excitement after they reached the final, with Mats Hummels, Felipe Santana and Robert Lewandowski revelling in an improbable moment.
Article top media content
Article body
Following their emphatic semi-final first-leg victory, Borussia Dortmund were made to sweat by a persistent Real Madrid CF in Tuesday's return before the Bundesliga team eventually advanced to the 2013 UEFA Champions League final. UEFA.com rounds up the reaction from a dramatic night in the Spanish capital.
Mats Hummels, Dortmund defender
Of course I am happy. This is something I dreamed of when I started playing football and that is almost 20 years ago now. It's still hard to come to terms with the fact we made it. We didn't want Madrid to score as we knew what would happen. We played really well from the 15th minute on but missed a chance to score ourselves which would have made things easier. In the end we had to suffer 12 or 13 very hard minutes.
The first leg was where we took our big step towards the final. I think we deserve to be there as we were not the worst team today – we just failed to score that goal. We didn't expect to be here when the season started, especially when we were drawn in the same group as Real Madrid, Manchester City and Ajax. Our objective was to qualify from the first two places but from the first game everything went almost perfectly.
I expect we will meet Bayern München in the final as four goals is normally too much to come back from. They are outstanding this year in the league and the UEFA Champions League. If we get a German final it means we will have a German winner which is what everyone wants back home. Now that we are in the final we don't want to lose it. I hope our presence there isn't a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but it could be.
It was unbelievably loud here which made things hard. We showed everyone that this is not all about luck – we are respected as a team now. It's still hard to believe. I was eight years old and a supporter of Bayern München when Dortmund won the 1997 final. Everyone in Dortmund knows about that game. I wouldn't bet against us achieving the same feat.
Felipe Santana, Dortmund defender
We are enjoying a moment now that I'm not sure we can repeat. Tonight we played well and stood up to Madrid's pressure. In the end we got the result we needed to get to the final. We have fought a lot in order to reach Wembley. Even after conceding twice tonight we were only thinking of the final. Madrid are a magnificent team and it's very hard to come here and not concede. The important thing was the result, though. There was a lot of joy in our dressing room. We wanted to get to the showpiece and we did it.
Robert Lewandowski, Dortmund forward
It's the best moment of my career because we have made the final. Of course, it was a very difficult match tonight – everything was fine until their first goal, but afterwards it was a little dangerous. We held our nerve and the ending really doesn't matter any more because we made it.
The last five minutes really dragged on – it felt like ten minutes to me, not five. Afterwards we were delighted. For me and the team it is the first time in such a final but we will have to wait to find out who we are up against. We have three weeks until the game and have to prepare well.

Even before "South Park" hit television, creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone made clear that no celebrity would be safe in the quiet, little, white-bred, redneck, mountain town.
Perhaps the two biggest stars of all – Jesus and Santa Claus – battled in "The Spirit of Christmas," the 1995 animated short that caught the attention of TV executives and led to the show, which marked its 200th episode on Comedy Central Wednesday night.
The anniversary special featured a revenge-of-the-celebrities spectacle in which scores of stars lampooned in "South Park" over the last 13 years returned to wreak havoc – by filing a class-action lawsuit against the town.
"I say enough!" declares Tom Cruise, a favorite "South Park" target. "All of us together can put a stop to the slander coming from that town, once and for all!"
The episode proved a hilarious reminder that no TV show is better at skewering celebrities – and our fame-crazed culture. Parker and Stone's fascination with celebrity makes for a funhouse mirror reflection of an obsessed public and media that alternately worships and vilifies the famous.
In the confines of "South Park," Barbara Streisand is a giant mechanical monster run amok. Mel Gibson is a gun-toting religious zealot with a wild streak out of "Mad Max." Bono is a self-righteous bore who is full of himself – and of a certain other substance that makes him a formidable opponent in a scatological contest.
Since the 1997 debut of "South Park," we've seen celebrity mania plumb new depths, thanks largely to the Reality TV craze and the Internet's promise of space and speed to promulgate the silliest of gossip. "South Park," meanwhile, has become more pointed in its often-outrageous depictions of a star-culture out of control.
Mel Gibson returned in 2007 for the three-part "Imaginationland" series, an edgy look at terror fears. Last season's take off on "The Sixth Sense," in which little Ike is haunted by recently deceased entertainers like Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett and Patrick Swayze, tapped into the morbid mass mourning of fallen stars. Last month's satire of the Tiger Woods mess excoriated the bizarre ritual of rehab, public apology and penance for disgraced celebs.
Wednesday night's episode seemed very much about settling old scores with censors and celebrities – particularly Cruise. In 2006, a repeat of an episode making fun of Cruise and Scientology was pulled, reportedly after the powerful actor complained (though the show – titled "Trapped in the Closet" – has aired since).
The 200th episode begins with the kids on a school trip to a candy factory, where Stan spots Cruise working on the assembly line. "Tom Cruise is a fudge packer!" he exclaims.
Cruise assembles an all-star lineup of "South Park" foils including Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Kanye West. The celebrities say they'll drop the suit – but only if the town turns over the Prophet Muhammad. The stars want to tap into Muhammad's "power not to be made fun of," Cruise says.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
"South Park," of course, has touched on the Muhammad-cartoon controversy before: a 2006 two-parter called "Cartoon Wars" ridiculed the fear surrounding use of the Muslim prophet's image.
It looks like the latest episode – which ended on a multiple cliffhanger involving Muhammad, the return of the angry "Gingers," a revelation in Cartman's paternity and an impending attack by an reinvigorated Mecha-Streisand – also is destined for at least another chapter.
Meanwhile, all celebrities remain fair game in "South Park," where the real stars will always be Stan, Kyle, Cartman and pals.

Frequently Asked Questions
When you troubleshoot issues with a SATA cable, there are some quick tests that you can complete to rule out potential problems. You can test to make sure that the following components are working correctly and are not the source of the issue:
Hard disk drive
Hard drive controller (for example, motherboard)
SATA cable
To test your setup components, try the following:
Use the hard disk drive, hard drive controller, and SATA cable in another setup to see if the problem is with the components or the setup.
Use a different hard disk drive, hard drive controller, and SATA cable in your setup to see if the problem persists. Ideally, you should test a component that you know works in another setup.
When you test the hard disk drive, hard drive controller, and SATA cable, it is recommended that you do the following:
Make sure that the hard drive is spinning without the SATA cable attached. The power cable should make the drive spin if it is a mechanical drive and not a solid state drive.
If your operating system is not detecting the hard disk drive, make sure that the drive is formatted with a partition (for example, NTFS or FAT32). If you are using a computer running a version of Windows, a drive letter must also be assigned to the hard disk drive.

The Kadeem Jack era started at Rutgers today. The blue-chip forward, who graduated from Rice in the spring before spending this fall at two different prep schools, enrolled in college and practiced with the Scarlet Knights for the first time.
Rice said Jack will redshirt barring a season-ending injury to another player on the roster. He will not dress for Tuesday's game vs. North Carolina. Here is a quick Q&A with the coach about his newest player:
Q. Jack's first day of practice, how did that go?
A. "Kadeem showed signs of tremendous potential, but it's like we're speaking in a foreign language much of the time because he doesn't know what terminology we use. He doesn't know the drills. All of this was new to him. He has to get comfortable. If we weren't going up and down the court, he looked like he was thinking too much but that's what you would expect."
Q. As a head coach, have you ever tried to integrate a player into a program in mid-season before?
A. "Never. It's very challenging. He wanted to do more. He's putting pressure on himself to learn a whole system in three minutes. The guys have had so many reps. They were kidding that during certain drills he looked awkward. I said, 'I can't wait to show you the tape of your first practice and show you what you guys looked like.'"
Q. What do you hope he gains most from practicing with you for the next two-and-a-half months?
A. We're going to attack his weaknesses and develop his skills. He has to learn to have the urgency and mentality of a Division I player, especially in the Big East. He gets to sit and watch the game, he'll travel with us. He's hopefully going to have, come summer, an understanding of exactly what he needs to do and how to get himself ready. He's not in shape enough, he's not strong enough, he's nowhere near where he needs to be. But he gets to take the course before someone grades him, so hopefully he'll learn."
Q. Conversely, what will he add to practice?
A. He was Tyler Zeller today. Instead of having a 6-foot-2 walk-on (be the 10 th man), he was out there running the floor and rebounding. He adds things to our scout team that you really usually don't have, especially with nine scholarship athletes.
Rice also said James Beatty (weather/travel) and Robert Lumpkins (personal reasons) missed Sunday's practice.

New archbishop of Canterbury formally takes office
The new archbishop of Canterbury on Monday formally took up his post as the leader of the world's 80-million-strong Anglican Communion.
The Most Rev. Justin Welby swore allegiance to the queen as he accepted the position amid prayers for him, his wife Caroline, and their five children.
The election of the 57-year-old Welby, a former oil executive, comes at a difficult time for the Anglican Communion, whose global membership includes the U.S. Episcopal Church.
The communion has been riven by bitter disagreements over female bishops and church teachings on gay relationships. Welby reiterated Monday that he backed the Church of England's opposition to government proposals to introduce gay marriage.
Welby succeeds Rowan Williams, who retired in December after a decade in office.

A beautifully staged and well-acted production of THE HEIRESS by Ruth and Augustus Goetz opened tonight at the Pasadena Playhouse. Directed by DÁMASO RODRIGUEZ, the story deals with Catherine Sloper (HEATHER TOM) who stands to inherit a fortune from her ailing physician father (RICHARD CHAMBERLAIN).
A plain-looking, shy young woman, Catherine lives a quiet life under her father's cold-hearted scrutiny. Dr. Roper subliminally blames his daughter for the death of his beloved wife who passed away during childbirth.
When an opportunistic young suitor, Morris Townsend, (STEVE COOMBS) comes calling, the good doctor is certain that the penniless young man has proposed marriage in order to get his hands on Catherine's inheritance.
Catherine is too much in love to pay much attention to her father's protests. Morris is the first man to ever pay attention to her but she eventually agrees to a cooling off period by joining her father on his up-coming trip to Europe.
Everything comes to a head upon Catherine and the doctor's return to New York and before long the young woman realizes that she is more like her father than she would ever dare admit. From here the production smoothly brings the story to it's psychologically nuanced and heartbreaking conclusion with no one ultimately ending up a winner.
Director Rodrigiez has gathered the perfect cast for this play. Chamberlain is excellent as the malevolent doctor who schemes to keep his daughter in line. He is the backbone of the production.
Steve Coombs as Morris Townsend hits all the right notes as the young man whose intentions are not immediately clear. Even when his cards would seem to be on the table, Morris plays his best hand to hold onto the prize.
JULIA DUFFY is a strong presence as Catherine's aunt--but it is Heather Tom as Catherine who has the strongest arc in terms of both story and performance. Starting out as a respectful, soft-spoken introvert, Ms. Tom slowly reveals Catherine's hidden power and determination as she challenges and eventually outsmarts both the men in her life.
The scenic design by JOHN IACOVELLI deserve a special mention. It is stunning and highly effective. It almost feels like a set from an old Hollywood movie.
Costumes by LEAH PIEHL are impressive. Lighting design by BRIAN GALE helps set the perfect mood.
THE HEIRESS runs till May 20th and it is a production that is well worth the price of admission.

A fast-moving storm expected to drop a foot of snow or more in the Northeast over the weekend moved into the region Saturday as road crews went on high alert and airlines began canceling flights.
Utilities, airports and local officials braced for power outages, flight delays and slick roads while shoppers headed out to stores to tackle gift lists during a shorter-than-normal holiday shopping season.
The National Weather Service has said 6 to 12 inches of snow were expected in New England, with as much as 14 inches possible along the Maine coast. Areas north and west of New York City and interior Pennsylvania could get 8 inches or more. About half a foot was forecast in parts of Ohio, where snow began falling overnight.
U.S. & World
Hours before kickoff Saturday at the Army-Navy football game in Philadelphia, accountant Kathy Porter hovered under layers of clothing in the stands, trying to keep warm amid low temperatures she doesn't get much of back home in Charlotte, N.C.
"We're just hoping for snow and not rain — I think we can handle the snow," Porter said. "I think we'll be OK. A little frozen but OK."
Airlines canceled nearly 1,200 flights because of the storm, including almost 375 flights into and out of Newark, N.J., and 189 at Chicago's O'Hare airport.
"It's a pretty bad day for Newark," said Mark Duell, a spokesman for FlightAware, a website that tracks commercial airlines. More than 40 percent of Newark's 900 flights were cut, he said.
New York City's Office of Emergency Management asked drivers to stay off the roads and, if they do drive, they should go slowly and stick to major streets or highways.
The rain could wash away much of the snow in some areas by morning.
The weather contributed to four deadly crashes on Missouri roads on Friday and Saturday and drivers in states throughout the path of the storm were warned of slick road conditions from snow and ice.
Parts of New England could see up to a foot by the time the front pulls out early Sunday and ushers in high winds that could be a hazard of their own. Up to 14 inches could fall in coastal towns in Maine.
At resorts and ski towns in Northern New England, the snow was a welcome kickoff for the winter season.
"We have been watching (the forecast) since people first started talking about it on Monday or Tuesday," said Ethan Austin, spokesman for the Sugarloaf Ski Resort in Carrabassett Valley, Maine. "Right now it's setting up pretty well for us, so we're pretty psyched."
The snow-dampened shopping weekend in mid-December was not such good news for retailers.
Kathy Grannis, a spokeswoman for the National Retail Federation, said consumers would likely take their shopping online. She said the weekend before Christmas will give retailers and shoppers another bite at the apple.
"If a big storm hits around the 21st, 22nd, it will be a completely different story," Grannis said.
The storm dropped more than 6 inches on parts of interior Pennsylvania by sundown, and speed limits were reduced on major interstates. Snow was falling at up to 2 inches per hour in northern Pennsylvania late in the afternoon, while the storm seemed to be skipping other areas entirely.
"It took a little while longer to start sticking down in the Harrisburg area," said National Weather Service meteorologist Elyse Colbert in State College. "Other parts of the state, though, it's panning out as expected."
At the Army-Navy football game in Philadelphia, accountant Kathy Porter shivered under layers of clothing in the stands, trying to keep warm amid low temperatures she doesn't get much of back home in Charlotte, N.C.
"We're just hoping for snow and not rain — I think we can handle the snow," Porter said. "I think we'll be OK. A little frozen but OK."
Colbert said snow had reached more than 3 inches in State College by dinnertime Saturday and provided a lovely winter scene.
"Unless you have to drive in it," she said.

Physicist Stephen Hawking made headlines recently by saying that black holes – the incredibly massive astronomical objects that made him famous – do not exist. Or they exist, but not how we think. Or something. The truth is complicated.
In fact, to really understand where Hawking and the rest of the astrophysics community are coming from, it's important to know a little history. Just how we arrived at this complex situation is strange, involving a spate of discoveries about the properties of black holes, each solving some previous problem. But, like a hydra sprouting new heads for each one cut off, the solutions generated new difficulties, eventually leading to Hawking's recent declaration.

'Time Crystals' Could Upend Physicists' Theory of TimeThe story starts in 1784, when a geologist named John Michell was thinking deeply about Isaac Newton's theory of gravity. In Newtonian physics, a cannonball can be shot into orbit around the Earth if it surpasses a particular speed, known as the planet's escape velocity. This speed depends on the mass and radius of the object you are trying to escape from. Michell's insight was to imagine a body whose escape velocity was so great that it exceeded the speed of light – 300,000 kilometers per second – first measured in 1676 by the Danish astronomer Ole Romer.
Michell presented his results to other scientists, who speculated that massive "dark stars" might exist in abundance in the sky but be invisible because light can't escape their surfaces. The French mathematician Pierre-Simon Laplace later made an independent discovery of these "dark stars" and both luminaries correctly calculated the very small radius – 6 kilometers – such an object would have if it were as massive as our sun.
After the revolutions of 20th century physics, black holes got much weirder. In 1916, a short while after Einstein published the complex equations underpinning General Relativity (which Einstein himself couldn't entirely solve), a German astronomer named Karl Schwarzschild showed that a massive object squeezed to a single point would warp space around it so much that even light couldn't escape. Though the cartoon version of black holes has them sucking everything up like a vacuum cleaner, light would only be unable to escape Schwarzschild's object if it was inside a particular radius, called the Schwarzschild radius. Beyond this "event horizon," you could safely leave the vicinity of a black hole.
Neither Schwarzschild nor Einstein believed this object was anything other than a mathematical curiosity. It took a much better understanding of the lives of stars before black holes were taken seriously. You see, a star only works because it preserves a delicate balance between gravity, which is constantly trying to pull its mass inward, and the nuclear furnace in its belly, which exerts pressure outward. At some point a star runs out of fuel and the fusion at its core turns off. Gravity is given the upper hand, causing the star to collapse. For stars like our sun, this collapse is halted when the electrons in the star's atoms get so close that they generate a quantum mechanical force called electron degeneracy pressure. An object held up by this pressure is called a white dwarf.
In 1930, the Indian physicist Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar showed that, given enough mass, a star's gravity could overcome this electron degeneracy pressure, squeezing all its protons and electrons into neutrons. Though a neutron degeneracy pressure could then hold the weight up, forming a neutron star, the physicist Robert Oppenheimer found that an even more massive object could overcome this final outward pressure, allowing gravity to win and crushing everything down to a single point. Scientists slowly accepted that these things were real objects, not just weird mathematical solutions to the equations of General Relativity. In 1967, physicist John Wheeler used the term "black hole" to describe them in a public lecture, a name that has stuck ever since.
But as researchers studied black holes, they kept finding new ways in which they were bizarre. In 1974, Stephen Hawking made his most famous discovery: black holes can emit radiation. Down at the subatomic scale, fundamental particles are constantly winking in and out of existence. (It's freaky to think that this is happening all around you all the time but it's true.) Hawking realized that if a particle and its antiparticle appeared just at the edge of a black hole's event horizon something odd would happen. Typically, these two particles would annihilate one another and release their energy back to the universe. But if one of the pair got sucked into the black hole, the other would get flung outward. The expelled particle would carry a bit of the black hole's energy away, slowly sapping its strength. Given enough time, black holes would evaporate.
This introduced a dilemma: What exactly happens to that particle falling into the black hole? According to the laws of quantum mechanics, information about that particle cannot be destroyed. But once a particle has slipped beyond the event horizon, nothing about it, including its quantum mechanical information, can be recovered. Or at least, that's what Hawking argued for more than 30 years, even going so far as to make a famous bet with physicist John Preskill in 1997 that the intense gravity of the black hole somehow overpowers the laws of quantum mechanics. But in 2004, Hawking had to concede that he was wrong. The work of other scientists, particularly string theorist Donald Marolf and physicist Juan Maldacena, showed incontrovertibly that there was no way to destroy quantum information and that it was actually leaking out of the black hole.
Despite the fact that everyone agreed on this conclusion, no one had any idea of exactly how it was happening. The result generated yet another intractable problem. The particle and antiparticle responsible for this whole mess were quantum mechanically entangled, which means that their properties are forever linked. Theoretical physicist Joseph Polchinski, working with Marolf and others, showed in 2012 that, in order for everything else known about black holes to be true, this quantum entanglement would have to be severed. Such a process is possible but violent. Disentangling the twins would generate a huge amount of energy right at the black hole's event horizon. This energy would form a wall of blazing fire around the black hole, incinerating anything that came near.
Yes, we're getting to the bit about Hawking's recent proposal. Just hold on. Nothing about black holes is quick and easy.
The searing firewall solution has yet to be fully resolved in the physics community. Some believe it, some don't. But even for those inclined toward the idea, it creates, you guessed it, another major problem. According to Einstein's relativity, an astronaut falling into a black hole shouldn't notice anything particularly different about the universe when she passes the event horizon. Getting incinerated certainly counts as "something peculiar going on here." Scientists are faced with a choice: give up on Einstein and acknowledge that firewalls exist or give up on quantum mechanics and realize that information gets destroyed in a black hole.
In an attempt to thread the needle between the options, Hawking recently proposed to do away with something else: the event horizon. He instead suggests that physicists consider a much more nebulous term called the "apparent horizon" around a black hole. The apparent horizon works a lot like an event horizon, in that light beams inside of it can't escape. They get stuck in a holding pattern, moving as fast as they can to stay in the same place, like the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland. In this way, light and other information can get sort of "stored" in an apparent horizon but eventually find its way out.
The apparent horizon and the event horizon don't entirely overlap. Because a black hole can grow (by sucking in extra mass), its event horizon may move outward past its apparent horizon. Or, by releasing Hawking radiation, a black hole can diminish, shrinking its event horizon inside of its apparent horizon. The entire concept is pretty strange, even to physicists, and seems to depend on the way that you decide to slice up space-time in your equations. In his latest paper, Hawking is saying that the apparent horizon is the only real thing, allowing scientists to ignore the event horizon and the firewall/Einstein problems arising there.
Using an apparent horizon actually solves one other problem, namely how information can escape from a black hole. Because the apparent horizon's trap is only temporary, radiation can leave the black hole and carry information, albeit in a very scrambled and chaotic form.
So does that mean that black holes' problems are done away with? Absolutely not! Firstly, it will take some time for the physics community to digest exactly what Hawking is suggesting. Already, some scientists are for it while others aren't so sure. The one thing that can basically be guaranteed at this point is that physicists will eventually find some other mind-bending property of black holes that seems to contradict everything we thought before.

Quinn: I'm dying for some True Blood scoop!
The fangtastic HBO hit is looking to add a few new vampires to the mix in season five. True Blood is currently casting the Authority council members so we're thinking these vamps mean business. Kibwe is gentleman vampire who believes in vampire rehab, while Rosalyn is a Texas fanger with a whole lot of hair. But the most intriguing council member? A 9-year-old vampire named Alexander who loves cigarettes and annoying the rest of the council. Smoking aside, we're stoked for Alexander's debut!

Instead, look for Bill and Eric to team up while the vampire world begins to both expand and collapse in the coming season. "The guys have usually tried to kill each other and now suddenly have to learn to become friends and protect each other and work together."

Filming has resumed on the next season of True Blood, and while we've heard plenty about new additions to the cast like Christopher Meloni, what of Denis O'Hare's villainous vampire Russell Edgington, who appeared to have escaped his concrete prison in the last episode? "I don't know what they have planned for me, but I'll probably be in most of the season, starting about midway," O'Hare told us last night at Second Stage Theater's All-Star Bowling Classic. But don't expect any spoilers on how Edgington got away: "If I told you that, they'd bury me again. All I can say is that he's got friends in unlikely places." Edgington brought his own bowling ball and bowling shoes to the event, but when it came to this week's other big game — the Super Bowl — he was less enthused. "I don't hate football, I just don't care. I'd rather be at the opera," the out actor told us. "It's not about [being] gay or straight, it's a lot of hype. It's a lot of money, money that could be spent better somewhere else. I think we as a culture could do something better with our attention than worry about a bunch of men in tights running around hitting each other." Although when you put it that way, Denis ...

Vampires will have something else to fear besides werewolves, the sun and silver in the upcoming season of True Blood. This new dude is way, way worse. He's…a redneck. And an anti-vampire one at that. This hunter will be a recurring character on T.B.'s new season, so he'll likely be raising all kinds of hell, like killing vamps and taking others prisoner. Want to hear the best part? His name is…wait for it…Joe Bob. You're welcome.
He may just be the creepiest member of True Blood's Vampire Authority -- because he looks harmless, but is quite the opposite.
The Hollywood Reporter has learned that Jacob Hopkins has landed the recurring role as the final member of True Blood's highest vampire governing body, the Vampire Authority.
Hopkins plays Alexander Drew, one of the Authority's chancellors who was turned to darkness at the age of 9-years-old. Alexander is described as an impetuous vamp who likes to taunt those around him.
He joins SVU star Cristopher Meloni, Spartacus actor Peter Mensah, and General Hospital and Cougar Town actress Carolyn Hennesy on the Authority.

Don't know what the Ig Nobels are? Read our coverage from last year's ceremony. If you can't be bothered to read it, you suck.
But here's the distilled version: Every year, the Ig Nobels recognize science that first makes you laugh and then makes you think. It is unlike any awards ceremony you have ever seen. There's partial nudity, paper airplanes, and actual Nobel laureates. Last year, several of those Nobel laureates partook in an operatic ode to coffee's effects on the human sphincter. Yes, really.
We'll be broadcasting it live on io9 tomorrow night beginning around 7:15 pm (US Eastern Time). The ceremony itself begins at 7:30, and should run for around an hour, hour and a half. Trust us — if you haven't experienced the Igs before, this is something you'll definitely want to witness.

Let's say a higher level user can decrypt messages encrypted by lower level users. Is that possible?
I guess it is only possible to do with hierarchical key management, like the higher level users have access to the lower level user's keys.
Is there any other option to do something like this?

"They stand for so much in British music history and I can't think of a better time for them to get back together for another performance," manager Simon Fuller said according to Britain's Mirror newspaper. "The demand for them as a band is as strong as ever."
Fuller said the women, who most recently reunited and toured in 2008, could be coaxed back together once again in time for the games.
"They will not want to be performing hits like 'Wannabe' in their 40s, but it's amazing how often people talk about another reunion. And I think if they do it, it's going to be in 2012," he said.

The commissioning of the 102 MW Bear Mountain Wind Park in north-eastern British Columbia was a milestone in itself. The C$200 million project, made up of 34 Enercon 3 MW turbines, is the first operating wind farm in Canada's westernmost province. Wind energy is now being generated in every Canadian province. The project is also the first foray into wind for its owner, Calgary's Altagas Income Trust, which completed construction on budget and ahead of schedule. Its success "demonstrates our strategy of investing in and building projects that are long-term, stable assets", says CEO David Cornhill.
TransAlta Corporation's 66 MW Blue Trail wind farm in southern Alberta started commercial operations in early November, more than a month ahead of schedule. The C$115 million project, made up of 22 Vestas 3 MW turbines, will generate an average of 195 GWh a year of electricity, enough to meet the needs of 29,000 homes.
Blue Trail's commissioning increases TransAlta's wind turbine fleet to 899 MW. The Calgary-based company is by far the largest wind power producer in the country, thanks to its recent takeover of renewable energy firm Canadian Hydro Developers.
Toronto's Northland Power Income Fund completed its 127.5 MW Jardin d'eole wind farm in Quebec in November as well. CEO John Brace says the project was well within its C$268 million total budget. But it also had its share of challenges along the way. Northland won a 20-year power purchase agreement for the wind farm, originally planned for 150 MW, in Hydro-Quebec's 2003 request for proposals. It was to have come online by December 2007, but ran into delays over permitting and turbine supply (Windpower Monthly, November 2008).
With the completion of Bear Mountain, Blue Trail and Jardin d'eole, Canada's installed wind capacity stands at 3.15 GW. Of that, 781 MW has come online in 2009, narrowly edging out the record 775 MW installed in 2006.

How hypnosis changes emotional responses
My question is tied to my desire to understand how it is that my mind no longer responds to the pressure I was feeling before which I thought was an emotional response based on past situations where I felt attacked and helpless. But it seems that my mind is now able to be rational under pressure and that sort of button can no longer be pushed? Can you explain how it works? (I had one session with this client. SF)
In your life, your subconscious mind was trained so that certain things in your environment would trigger specific feelings, like how you used to respond to feeling attacked by feeling hurt and helpless. What we did in hypnosis was to change your response, first by establishing a constant and consistent sense of peace and calm. Then, instead of having your subconscious immediately jump from "I feel attacked" to "I feel hurt and helpless," my suggestions re-directed it so that it acknowledged the attack, but you remained calm and focused. We call that "retraining the brain." I also gave you other suggestions that supported this including ones to start, continue, and end the day being focused, and to block you from all negativity.

Craig Chalmers believes Esher are still very much in the promotion hunt in SSE National League One after heading into the Christmas break off the back of a winning run.
Esher suffered three straight defeats in November, at the hands of fellow promotion chasers Doncaster Knights, Rosslyn Park and Coventry.
However they have bounced back this month with three consecutive wins, most recently a hard-fought 13-8 win at Henley Hawks on Saturday.
They now have the chance to recharge the batteries over Christmas and New Year and coach Chalmers is convinced there is nothing stopping Esher from mounting a title challenge.
"We know we can compete with Doncaster and Rosslyn Park – they are no better than us," said Chalmers.
"Three games we had against Doncaster, Rosslyn Park and Coventry and we could have won, but we are still in the hunt.
"We have got a really tough start in the New Year with Blaydon but just to get that win under our belt was really was really important. The confidence is starting to come back.
"It is important that we are not festive for too long with a defeat hanging over us. We will obviously enjoy Christmas and New Year and hopefully get off to a good start in the New Year.
"I still don't believe that we have played as well as we can do for a whole game. We have given away some soft tries that have cost us games.
"The guys are going to enjoy it. They work hard when they come into training and they look after themselves so hopefully that will be the case over the festive period."
The win at Henley was a scrappy affair, in which number eight Michael MacFarlane's first-half try proved to be the difference.
Luke Daniels added two penalties and a conversion in tricky conditions and Chalmers was pleased with the way they showed great resolve in the latter stages to secure the points.
"There were a lot of mistakes – it was two teams that didn't play particularly well," he added.
"The scrum was pretty good at times but it was a horrible day and definitely one for the purists. But it was a win.
"Some good teams have come unstuck at Henley this season and we always knew it was going to be a tough game. We ground out the result and we played the last five minutes really well."
