PORTLAND, Oregon (Reuters) - A Somali-born man charged in a Christmas-season bomb plot in Oregon was eager to "martyr" himself in a suicide mission, but FBI agents posing as al Qaeda operatives talked him into a plan to set off explosives remotely instead, one of them testified on Tuesday.
Returning to the witness stand on the second day of testimony in the trial of Mohamed Osman Mohamud, an undercover agent identified in court only by his pseudonym, Youssef, recounted offering the defendant a number of chances to back out of the plot.
But Mohamud's determination to forge ahead with a plan to bomb a crowded outdoor Christmas tree-lighting ceremony on November 26, 2010, in Portland never seemed to waver, Youssef testified.
The prosecution also played for the jury a brief videotaped message by Mohamud, recorded by his undercover FBI handlers about four weeks before the planned attack, in which he grimly states: "A dark day is coming your way."
Mohamud, a naturalized U.S. citizen and former Oregon State University student who was 19 at the time, is charged with attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction in an FBI sting operation criticized by defense lawyers as a blatant case of government entrapment.
If convicted, Mohamud, now 21, faces a maximum penalty of life in prison.
An FBI affidavit filed in the case says Mohamud was arrested after he tried to use a cellphone to detonate what he believed was a car bomb but was actually a harmless fake supplied by Youssef and a fellow FBI agent.
Youssef passed himself off as an al Qaeda recruiter, while his undercover FBI partner posed as an al Qaeda bomb expert named Hussein, according to testimony.
The fake bomb was planted in a van near a downtown square lined with shops and offices and crowded with thousands of people attending the holiday festivities, though authorities say the public was never in any real danger.
In opening statements as the trial got under way last week, defense attorney Stephen Sady argued that his client would never have tried to carry out a bombing on his own and that the FBI "created a crime that would have never happened without them."
But in FBI testimony and in secretly recorded video and audio tapes of his meetings with undercover agents, Mohamud was shown by the prosecution as an eager participant who originally wanted to "martyr" himself by driving a bomb-packed van into the outdoor plaza and blowing himself up with it.
Spectators and members of the media were ordered out of the courtroom and into a nearby chamber to watch the proceedings on closed-circuit television during testimony by Youssef, who remained off camera to protect his identity.
Under questioning by assistant U.S. Attorney Ethan Knight, the agent said he and his colleague grew concerned at one point because they considered Mohamud to be "suicidal, and we don't want him to take matters into his own hands."
In a video clip of Mohamud and his FBI handlers sharing a meal in a hotel room, the two agents are heard convincing Mohamud that he could ultimately do more to help "the cause" by staying alive. "We want to keep you for awhile," Hussein says in the video. "We think there's some things you can do better than just one time."
They also discussed sending Mohamud off to a Muslim country after November 26 in a move Youssef testified was aimed at giving Mohamud something to look forward to beyond the planned bombing.
In a separate video the agents filmed of Mohamud in his Corvallis, Oregon, apartment on November 4, Mohamud stood before the camera wearing a camouflaged jacket over a white tunic, with a red-and-white checkered scarf wound atop his head to deliver a solemn goodbye message.
Speaking first in Arabic and then in English in a statement he addressed to the West he said: "A dark day is coming your way. ... Your people will not remain safe."
Addressing other Muslims residing among non-believers in the United States, he added: "Living here is a sin." To his parents, he declared, "Nothing you do will hold me back."
At another point, the agents showed Mohamud a purported Islamist militant training video, which actually was produced by the FBI, depicting men with scarf-covered faces shooting guns, and one setting off a bomb with a cellphone detonator. Youssef said Mohamud's response to the video was that "it was beautiful."

Wooooooooow it's been a long time since I've used this thing. Records show it's been a year and two days. Oops. :X
Um, reason for that is because I've been doing all my posting and such over on plurk lately. It's really addicting, especially with all the karma stuff, such as inactivity losing you karma, gaining karma giving you lots of new emotes, like the taser one.
ANYWAY, for those who still have me friended on here, I am, indeed, alive. I've been busy with work since I switched from my old job of the clothes MCA (the cleaning up the fitting room and sales floor) to that of the shoes MCA, where I get to take care of the shoes warehouse by emptying out the boxes of new shoes that come in, put them away on the shelves so they can be sold off, cover the sales associates breaks, help with signing if I'm scheduled when an ad changes (which I usually am), and drag out the emptied and broken down boxes to the cardboard compactor.
Perks of this job are that I can hide a water bottle in the back while I work so I'm not running off for a drink every twenty minutes, and I can listen to my iPod when I'm not covering the sales floor. :> Well worth giving up my freedom to walk around, I think. I still manage to rack up a lot of watts on my Pokewalker when it's in my pocket though since I'm constantly on my feet back there too.
Also, the fact that I have a Pokewalker... yeah, I got Soul Silver back in March. :'D And I picked up Ace Attorney: Justice For All just a few weeks ago and it's really fun!
On the rp scene, I'm still at dramadramaduck, where I've got Motoko Kusanagi and Feldt Grace. I've also got an app in for Lily Evans, but I gotta wait for word back on it. I think they won't be looking at apps until after Activity Check is fully done, but that's fine since that'll give me a little time to poke at my other game.
The other game is gauntlet_rpg, where I play Roleplay!Universe Neil Dylandy/Lockon Stratos and Motoko Kusanagi, both having returned with their Crucible memories intact, but Motoko having stayed in-universe after the end of the Crucible's journey. Also in tow is Original!Universe Sally Sparrow. I've got a soft spot for the girl, she was so brilliant facing the Weeping Angels and everything in Blink. In other Gauntlet-related news, I'm also one of the mods there, have been for a few weeks now.
For the last two months I've been helping Orly with modding her icontest, watase_awards. At this very moment, I am failing pretty miserably at it.... Though I did alright up until this weekend. I haven't made any sort of update in the vain hope of getting three more icons for a voting post (on top of being busy from Friday to Monday, writing my app on Tuesday and working today), but alas, no such luck. I may throw in the towel in a few minutes and force myself to make a new theme and a new sample icon. Orly, if you're reading this, I'm going to be bluntly honest here. I cannot wait for you to get home from China and take back control of your icontest. Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if the members of the comm will be happy to see my substitution reign over as well. I dub myself fail!mod of icontests as I do recall why I never restarted my own. sob
In home-related matters, I cleaned my room with the parents' help. Yes, it was that bad. It took us all... about eight and a half hours, I want to say, to do my room and my closet. I'm ashamed to admit that I let my room get that bad, but now it's clean, I've let go of a lot of my old shit, my old books, a bunch of old clothes too... I pray I don't let it get that bad again.
It was also during this cleaning spree that my mother revealed that she was worried about having my bed close to the northwest corner of my room, close to where the heater is. This is because that is the corner where all the power cables connect to the house and she thinks there would be a high electro-magnetic field. Funnily enough, my bed's usually been along the north wall, so it's still pretty close. Hell, I'm typing this close to that corner. And I'm starting to wonder if this is the reason why I get paranoid of shadows and such so easily, or if my brain is just that easily influenced by watching Doctor Who episodes such as Silence in the Library, Forest of the Dead, and other similar episodes so close to midnight. :|9
So... since I'm not planning on digging through a year's worth of f-list backlog, how have all of you guys been?
I know right? I think all of the older members left. haha.
Oh wow. :O

text: As you read The Hobbit or watch the film adaptation, doesn't the thread of Christianity that runs throughout seem obvious? Or are we seeing the Christian theme because that's what we want to see? Did Tolkien never mean for his story to align with Christianity? Unlike other books that have explored Tolkien's writing either by leaning too heavily on Christianity or not addressing it all, Devin Brown offers Tolkien fans a fresh perspective in this approachable, witty, and highly entertaining book.

And the pretty after.
The basic elements stayed: furniture, wall color, and recently purchased bedding. And we simply layered some lovely pieces into the room to give it some warmth and personality: new draperies, an accent pillow for the bed, lighting, and art and accessories. Amazing how you can transform the look and feel of a room without changing anything major. Window treatments can make all the difference, folks. It's true. Order some for the bare-feeling room, whether they're custom or retail. You'll be so thrilled you did.
It's so comfortable to be in this space now—the walls feel just the right intensity against with the dark furniture and rich curtains, but the room isn't too heavy either. It now makes its owners, and designer, very happy.

pod2g has posted a video showing off an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5. When and if it will be made public has yet to be said.
hello. No it does not rely on [Charlie Miller's code signing vulnerability]. Next step do the same on iOS 5.0.1. Should be quick.
According to later a tweet sent out by pod2g, it looks as if it will work on iOS 5.0.1 which is great news for all the folks that already updated.
Tons of questions from my nice followers. Too early to answer. Will work on iOS 5.0.1, will try iPad 2 and 4S after others are ready.
I'm secretly (ok, not so secretly) crossing my fingers that an untethered solution will follow (heck, I'll take tethered at this point) for the iPhone 4S.
An untethered jailbreak is one that doesn't require an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad be plugged via USB dock cable to properly reboot, and typically seems harder and takes longer to achieve than tethered jailbreaks. While tethered gets the job done, an untethered solution is always preferred.

A Romantic era masterpiece, Giselle tells the story of a young woman seduced and betrayed by a nobleman.

Thursday November 24, 2011
Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have reportedly been spotted house hunting together.
The Gossip Girl star and the Green Lantern hunk - who began dating in October after Blake split from Leonardo DiCaprio - have viewed several apartments in Manhattan together, according to The New York Post.
A source revealed Blake turned up late to view one fashionable penthouse in Greenwich Village, after Ryan, 35, arrived on time.
The 24-year-old actress, known for her elegant style on the red carpet and on screen, reportedly hid under a big hat as she was very dressed down for the appointment.
The insider said "It looked like Ryan was buying, but he was strongly relying on Blake's opinion".
They had apparently checked out another penthouse together earlier this month.

A striking example of contemporary architecture modelled on an airplane hangar, the museum building provides an authentic setting in which to showcase technological progress. Located directly next to Friedrichshafen Airport, it symbolically represents a turnoff from the airport runway and is surrounded by a landscaped park extending over approximately 25,000 square metres. The light-filled main structure provides around 5,000 square metres of space for exhibitions, while the museum hangar offers plenty of room for the museum's extensive collection of original aircraft on an additional 2,500 square metres.
Friedrichshafen is where the Dornier company was born. The Museum's physical proximity to the Friedrichshafen Airport brings home to every visitor the real-life connections between the launch of aviation and air traffic today.
»I'm fascinated by the view from above. Combining the past with the present formed the basis for our initial drafts, from which arose the metaphor of the runway turn-off.«

Bumpstop BasicsPosted in How To: Suspension Brakes on August 1, 2010
Have you ever heard the old saying that it's not the fall that hurts, but that sudden stop will ruin your day? Well, we have, and anyone who has ever hit an obstacle a tad too fast or made their rig defy gravity if only for a brief moment knows why that statement rings true. While a nice suspension system will soak up most off-road turbulence, once the uptravel reaches its end, it's important to have something in place to absorb that last leg of impact. This is where the small but powerful bumpstop comes into play.
Though bumpstops come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and material types, their primary job is to work not only as a safe stopping point for your suspension system but also as additional damping as the suspension enters its final stage of uptravel. Over the past few decades OEMs have upped the role of the once basic suspension endpoint, and bumpstops now play an active role in most modern suspension systems.
Bumpstops are an extremely integral part of the suspension equation, but often for very different reasons. For most trail runners a rubber or polyurethane bump works great to help the rig have a low center of gravity and prevent oversized knobby tires from peeling off the fenders. On the other end of the spectrum, high-speed rock racers and desert rompers incorporate more tunable and durable nitrogen-charged bumps to help control and damp the impact of the more extreme and long-travel suspensions.
Similar to most 4x suspension parts, bumpstops range wildly in price and performance. So to give you a closer look and explanation at these ever important mini suspension members, we've complied some of the most common types and noted their primary advantages.
Replacement Stop
Factory bumpstops wear out over time, and a quality replacement isn't always available from your local parts house. Luckily Daystar offers a variety of factory replacement and universal bumps. Daystar's bumpstops range from low-profile to progressive-rate and are made of high-impact polyurethane. The company even offers EVS foam bumps that attach to your shock and act as a progressive-spring rate, providing even more cushion during the compression cycle. For more info on Daystar bumpstops, visit www.daystarweb.com or call 800.595.7659.

What people say about this Pink Cricut Expression Electronic Cutting Machine?
Cricut Expression vs. Personal vs. Making Memories Slice
Expression vs. Slice
There is no comparison – if you can only get 1 machine get the expression – it's worth the extra money…why?
I have the Slice – that was my first machine (I got it 2 weeks ago) only because it had the designs I wanted (tags) and also had some cool accessories and it's my first die cut machine. You have to hold it down to use it, there aren't that many cartridges and if you wait for sales – they are both about the same $. If you need a machine to cut a couple of things here and there and go for the slice. (Read my Slice review for more details).
Expression vs. Personal
The personal cricut only cuts to 5.5″ – and it's pretty much like the Slice – around the same price point as well. It does NOT compare with the capabilities of the Expression. Expression cuts in larger sizes, more feature – the LCD screen is more detailed, it's a far more sophisticated machine (think of composition notebook vs. laptop) – also spoke with a cricut user at a…

Corey Taylor Joins Sebastian Bach Onstage To Perform Skid Row Song
Sebastian Bach was a busy man this weekend (May 13) at Lazerfest in Boone, Iowa. In addition to his own set, complete with very special hometown guest Corey Taylor of Slipknot, he was also pulled onstage by Five Finger Death Punch.
During his set, the always amped up Bach got the crowd going, screaming, "I remember you Iowa!" Right before he tore into the classic Skid Row anthem 'Youth Gone Wild,' he unleashed a little surprise of his own on the crowd. "Well it's f---ing true what they say dreams can come true, and it can happen to you Iowa," screamed Bach. "And you know how I f---ing know that, because one of my best rock 'n' roll buddies is from Iowa – give a big welcome right now to Corey Taylor."
The Slipknot / Stone Sour frontman took to the stage and addressed the crowd, saying, "My people, what's up!" followed by, "I don't know why I'm here?" That's when Bach incited the crowd, getting them to chant 'Youth Gone Wild' before ripping into the tune with Taylor onstage. Watch the full video of the song below.
Bach's time on stage wasn't done after his set though. He also made a special appearance during Five Finger Death Punch's set. Bach shared the whole story with his Facebook followers, posting a photo and saying, "Hangin' on the bus w/Ivan singer from 5 Finger Death Punch last night in Iowa. This band was INCREDIBLE live & great guys too! They even played a bit of '18 & Life' live & gave me a shoutout & brought me onstage! Thanks guys you are amazing!"
One thing is for sure, when Sebastian Bach is on the premises, there's no telling who he'll join on stage, whether it's Five Finger Death Punch or one of past appearances with Guns N' Roses and Asking Alexandria.
In related news, his special guest Corey Taylor recently announced that the new Stone Sour disc should be out in October.

Bahamas New Album BAHAMAS IS AFIE Out Today
Bahamas will play Le Poisson Rouge on September 17 in support of his new album "Bahamas is Afie", out today, August 19 on Brushfire.
SPIN's "First Listen" is streaming Bahamas is Afie the new album from Afie Jurvanen, who performs as Bahamas. SPIN says of the new album, "Bahamas distills his brand of breezy soul...with summer-ready falsetto harmonies that float over a distorted riff, before ending with a quick solo, a move that reminds this laid back Canuck can shred." Stream the upcoming album via SPIN HERE and via Soundcloud HERE.
CMT Edge recently premiered "Little Record Girl," the latest track from the new album, declaring, "The song's conflicted feel is oddly satisfying, and Jurvanen attributes the imaginative tune's twangy tone to musical irony, adding that he'd love to do a full country album someday." Listen to "Little Record Girl" via CMT Edge HERE and via Soundcloud HERE.Bahamas' new video "Bahamas is Afie...(And Russ)" debuted on Paste. The site says, "The video follows Afie Jurvanen and comrade/food extraordinaire Russ on a day of coffee drinking, grocery shopping (for Russ' restaurant Aunties & Uncles), cat watching and a little jamming to his new album for the first time." In the video, Afie tells Russ, "I guess more than the last record, I just feel like it's some fully realized version of me." Watch the video via Paste HERE and via YouTube HERE. See North American fall tour dates below. This new release follows 2011's Barchords, which The Guardian praised as containing "stripped-down harmony-brushed songs with gorgeous hooks and without a wasted note." Jurvanen sought to create and produce a more developed arrangement of strings, brass, winds, orchestral percussion, and chamber choruses on Bahamas Is Afie. Prior to this record, Jurvanen's releases have all been sparsely recorded records with this new album marking a transition to a more complex and fully arranged collection of music. Jurvanen's debut album Pink Strat was released in 2009. The record was nominated for both a Juno Award and the Polaris Music Prize. Bahamas hit the road for two years after the release touring with artists such as Wilco and Robert Plant. In 2011 he released Barachords, which was nominated for two Juno Awards including Adult Alternative Album of the Year and Songwriter of The Year and was named Best Singer/Songwriter Album of 2012 by iTunes. Wall Street Journal praised the record as "bluesy and hypnotic," and The Los Angeles Times called "A delightfully rare kind of record that commands an instant replay."

Axtel Announces 65% Participation During the Early Tender Period and the Signing of the Tower Sale A
Axtel Announces 65% Participation During the Early Tender Period and the Signing of the Tower Sale Agreement with American Tower Corp
SAN PEDRO GARZA GARCIA, Mexico--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Axtel, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV: AXTELCPO; OTC: AXTLY) ("AXTEL" or "the Company"), a Mexican fixed-line integrated telecommunications company, today announced that the Company has obtained 65% aggregate participation as of the expiration of the Early Tender Date with respect to the exchange offers being made by its subsidiary Axtel Capital, S. de R.L. de C.V. to exchange any and all of AXTEL's outstanding Senior Notes due 2017 and 2019 (the "Old Notes") for new Senior Secured Notes and Senior Secured Convertible Dollar-indexed Notes, both due in 2020 (the "New Notes"), and a cash payment (the "Exchange Offers").
Additionally, the Company is also pleased to announce the signing of definitive agreements with MATC Digital, S. de R.L. de C.V., a subsidiary of American Tower Corporation ("American Tower"), for the sale of 883 telecommunication sites for approximately US$250 million. As previously informed, AXTEL is agreeing to lease back space on these telecommunication sites from American Tower for initial minimum lease terms ranging from 6 to 15 years depending on the technology installation at each site. The closing of this transaction is conditioned upon and expected to occur concurrently with the closing of the Exchange Offers on January 31, 2013.
Mr. Felipe Canales, AXTEL´s Chief Financial Officer, stated, "We are very pleased with the tower sale transaction. Not only because it is a key element of the recapitalization strategy we announced mid last year, but also because we are partnering with American Tower, a world-class company that will significantly contribute to enhance our operating performance". Mr. Canales went on to state, "We are also in the final stage of successfully closing the notes' exchange offer. This will strengthen AXTEL's capital structure and permit the Company to continue implementing its key strategic initiatives."
Other important information
The consummation of the Exchange Offers and related consent solicitations are subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Exchange. The complete terms and conditions of the Exchange Offers and consent solicitations are described in the Offer to Exchange, copies of which may be obtained by eligible holders by contacting D.F. King & Co., Inc., the information agent for the exchange offers and consent solicitations, at 48 Wall Street, 22nd Floor, New York, New York 10005, (212) 269-5550 (collect) or (800) 967-4612 (toll free), or email@example.com. The New Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements, and will therefore be subject to substantial restrictions on transfer.
This announcement is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the New Notes nor an offer to purchase Old Notes nor a solicitation of Consents. The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations are being made solely by means of the Offer to Exchange and the related Consent and Letter of Transmittal.

Facebook has announced it is bringing certain elements of its Facebook Home app to iPhone and iPad.
In an update to the Facebook app, the Chat Head messaging feature of Facebook Home has been added to the iPhone. The news comes as reports suggest Apple and Facebook are in talks about bringing the entire experience to iOS. See also: Facebook Home, HTC First FAQ: What you need to know.
This seems unlikely since iOS is far more locked down than Android and the Facebook Home app takes over much of the operating system.
See also: How to get Facebook Home on your Android smartphone.
But for now, Chat Heads allows users to keep on messaging while using the Facebook app. Circular profile pictures of the sender can be moved around the screen and clicked to reply. When you're done, simply drag them towards the bottom of the screen to close them.
A new addition called Stickers lets users add emoticon style images to messages. In what seems like a money grabbing scheme, users can buy additional Stickers from the aptly named Sticker Store.
Facebook said: "This update to Facebook for iOS will be available later today in the App Store. Chat heads and stickers on the Facebook app for iPhone will roll out fully over the next few weeks."
On the iPad side of things, the Facebook app is being updated with a fresh look to the News Feed which was announced at the beginning of March. The cleaner look includes a choice of feeds: All friends, photos, music and following.
Meanwhile, Facebook Home for Android has now hit the UK Google Play Store. So if you have a Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy Note 2, HTC One X or HTC One X+ you can download it now. Support for the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S4 will be added soon.
