Eager to reassure an anxious ally, President Barack Obama on Wednesday affirmed Israel's sovereign right to defend itself from any threat and vowed to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. He said containment of a nuclear-armed Iran was not an option and said the United States would do whatever it takes to prevent Iran from getting "the world's worst weapons."
Meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on his first visit to the Jewish state as president, Obama offered his personal commitment that the U.S. would stand by Israel in any circumstances that required it to act to protect its people. He said the U.S. and Israel would start talks soon on a new, 10-year security cooperation package to replace one that expires in 2017.
Obama also pledged to investigate whether chemical weapons were used this week in neighboring Syria's 2-year-old civil war, something he said would be a "game-changer" for current U.S. policy. In addition, he said he would continue to urge Israel and the Palestinians to re-launch the moribund peace process.
Speaking at a joint news conference, Obama and Netanyahu, who have sparred on numerous occasions in the past, presented a united front on Iran.
They stressed repeatedly that all options — including military ones — are on the table to keep Iran from acquiring an atomic weapon if the diplomatic track fails. And they brushed aside apparent differences over when the Iranian nuclear program might reach the point that military action is required.
"We will do what is necessary to prevent Iran from obtaining the world's worst weapons," Obama said, calling a nuclear-armed Iran a threat to Israel, the greater Middle East and the world.
Although Obama did not promise that the United States would act militarily against Iran if Israel decided that must be done, he offered an explicit endorsement for Israel to take whatever unilateral measures it deems necessary to guard against the threat.
"Each country has to make its own decisions when it comes to the awesome decision to engage in any kind of military action and Israel is differently situated than the United States," he said. "I would not expect that the prime minister would make a decision about his country's security and defer that to any another country any more than the United States would defer our decisions about what was important for our national security."
Netanyahu seized on the remarks, saying they were an important demonstration of America's steadfast alliance with Israel and part of making the carrot-and-stick approach a credible option to avoid the use of force.
"I am absolutely convinced that the president is determined to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons," he said. "I appreciate that. I appreciate the fact that the president has reaffirmed, more than any other president, Israel's right and duty to defend itself by itself against any threat."
Netanyahu said the carrot-and-stick approach now being employed to cajole Iran into proving that's its nuclear intentions are peaceful had to be bolstered by "a clear and credible threat of military action." Obama's recognition of Israel's right to act alone appeared to satisfy him on that score, and the prime minister beamed with delight in response to the new security pact talks.
On another issue of critical importance to Israel's security, Obama said the U.S. is investigating whether chemical weapons were deployed in Syria earlier this week. He said he was "deeply skeptical" of contentions by Syrian President Bashar Assad's government that rebel forces were behind any such attack.
Both the Assad government and Syrian rebels have accused each other of using chemical weapons in an attack on Tuesday.
Obama said the U.S. policy not to intervene militarily or arm Syrian rebels thus far is based on his desire to solve the problem with world partners. He rejected as "inaccurate" suggestions that the United States had done nothing to stop two years of bloodshed that has claimed more than 70,000 lives.
"It's a world problem when tens of thousands of people are being slaughtered, including innocent women and children," Obama said.
Obama's three-day visit to Israel, from its start earlier Wednesday, is designed to send a message of reassurance to a key ally.
At an extravagant welcoming ceremony, Obama declared that "peace must come to the Holy Land" and not at Israel's expense. U.S. backing for Israel will be a constant as the Middle East roils with revolution and Iran continues work on its nuclear program, he said.
"The United States is proud to stand with you as your strongest ally and your greatest friend," Obama said after landing at Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion International Airport.
"Across this region the winds of change bring both promise and peril," he said, calling his visit "an opportunity to reaffirm the unbreakable bonds between our nations, to restate America's unwavering commitment to Israel's security, and to speak directly to the people of Israel and to your neighbors."
Seeking to alter a perception among many Israelis that his government has been less supportive of Israel than previous U.S. administrations, Obama declared the U.S.-Israeli alliance "eternal."
"It is forever," he said to applause as Israeli and U.S. flags fluttered in a steady breeze under clear, sunny skies.
Before leaving the airport for Jerusalem, Obama offered a vivid display of the U.S. commitment to Israeli security by visiting a missile battery that is part of Israel's Iron Dome defense from militant rocket attacks. The United States has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in developing the system with Israel.
Obama and Netanyahu toured the battery, which Israel relocated to the airport for the occasion. They met and chatted with soldiers who operate the system that Israel credits with intercepting hundreds of rockets during a round of fighting against Gaza militants last November.
In his comments to reporters with Netanyahu, Obama also took note of the difficult way forward in the broader quest for Mideast peace, acknowledging that in recent years "we haven't gone forward, we haven't seen the kind of progress that we would like to see."
The president said he came to the region principally to listen, and hoped to return home with a better understanding of the constraints and "how the U.S. can play a constructive role."
Netanyahu, for his part, said he was willing to set aside preconditions in future talks with the Palestinians, adding that it was time to "turn a page in our relations."
Obama is to meet Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in the West Bank this week to assure him that an independent Palestinian state remains a U.S. foreign policy and national security priority — even though he is bringing no new plan to restart negotiations with Israel.
Although many Israelis warmly greeted Obama, Palestinians held several small protests in the West Bank and Gaza. Demonstrators in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip burned posters of Obama and U.S. flags, accusing the U.S. of being biased toward Israel.
In the West Bank, about 200 activists erected about a dozen tents in an area just outside of Jerusalem to draw attention to Israel's policy of building settlements. The tents were pitched in E1, a strategically located area where Israel has said it plans on building thousands of homes. The U.S. has harshly criticized the plan.

Five former elected officials in a small, blue-collar California city who became a national symbol of municipal greed were convicted Wednesday of stealing taxpayer money by serving on a panel that evidence showed was created only to boost their annual salaries to nearly $100,000.
Former Bell Mayor Oscar Hernandez and onetime City Council members Teresa Jacobo, George Mirabal, George Cole and Victor Bello were all convicted of misappropriating public funds.
Former Councilman Luis Artiga was acquitted of all charges. The pastor of Bell Community Church broke down in tears and pointed heavenward as the not guilty verdicts were read.
"I said, 'Thank you, Lord,'" a beaming Artiga, surrounded by his wife and four children, said outside court. "I never lost faith. I knew it, I just knew it."
After the four-week trial, the other defendants were convicted of illegally taking money for sitting on Bell's Solid Waste and Recycling Authority, an entity they could not prove had been legally established or did any work.
Records showed it met only one time between 2006 and 2010.
After the verdicts were read, Judge Kathleen Kennedy noted there were 10 deadlocked counts and asked the foreman if the panel had exhausted efforts to reach decisions.
He said that was correct, explaining the jury had split 9-3 on each of those counts. He did not reveal if the panel favored conviction.
Kennedy polled all 12 jurors, and four said they believed a verdict could be reached if they received more direction. Kennedy ordered them to resume deliberations then sent them home later in the day. The panel will return to court on this week.
At the heart of the case was whether the six officials broke the law by paying themselves annual salaries of up to $100,000 to govern only part-time in the city of 36,000 people where one in four residents live below the poverty line.
An audit by the state controller's office found the city had illegally raised property taxes, business license fees and other sources of revenue to pay the salaries. The office ordered the money repaid, which for a time put Bell in danger of filing for bankruptcy.
The defendants, many of whom took the witness stand during the trial, insisted they earned their salaries by working around the clock to help residents. Their lawyers blamed Bell's disgraced former city manager, Robert Rizzo, for creating the fiscal mess.Rizzo and his former assistant, Angela Spaccia, are expected to face trial later this year on similar charges.
City records have revealed that Rizzo had an annual salary and compensation package worth $1.5 million, making him one of the highest paid administrators in the country.
His salary alone was about $800,000 a year — double that of the president of the United States.
To fund salaries of officials, Rizzo masterminded a scheme to loot Bell's treasury of $5.5 million, prosecutors said.
Witnesses at the trial of the former council members depicted Rizzo as a micro-manager who convinced the city's elected officials that they too deserved huge salaries.
He was said to have manipulated council members into signing major financial documents, particularly Hernandez who does not read English and, according to his lawyer, was often unaware of what he was signing.
After the scandal was disclosed, thousands of Bell residents protested at City Council meetings and staged a successful recall election to throw out the entire council and elect new leaders.
Current Mayor Ali Saleh, a leader of the recall, hailed the guilty verdicts on Wednesday but said residents won't be truly satisfied until Rizzo and Spaccia are tried.
"Our community will rest when the legal process has come full circle and justice has been served," he said.
Hernandez, whose family members wept after the verdicts, was convicted of five counts of misappropriating public funds, as were Jacobo and Mirabal. Bello was convicted of four of the same charges and Cole of two.
Prosecutors declined to comment on possible sentences for the defendants until all the charges have been resolved.
Prosecutors brought an extensive, complicated case against all six defendants that totaled about 100 counts.
The jury had deliberated since Feb. 28 after one member of a previous panel was replaced and the judge told the reconstituted group of 12 to start over.
The trial was the first court proceeding following disclosures of massive corruption in the hardscrabble town of modest homes and few businesses.
The defendants' lawyers told jurors their clients had no idea what Rizzo was doing or that what they were doing was illegal.
Jacobo testified that when Rizzo told her that he was increasing her salary enough that she could quit her job selling real estate, she asked the former city attorney if that was legal and he assured her it was.
Hernandez's lawyer said the once popular mayor, who ran a small grocery store in Bell, was unschooled and not one who understood the city's finances.
"We elect people who have a good heart. Someone who can listen to your problems and look you in the eye," attorney Stanley Friedman had told jurors.

Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was convicted Monday of corruption charges, ensuring a return to prison for a man once among the nation's youngest big-city leaders.
Jurors convicted Kilpatrick of a raft of crimes, including a racketeering conspiracy charge. He was portrayed during a five-month trial as an unscrupulous politician who took bribes, rigged contracts and lived far beyond his means while in office until fall 2008.
Prosecutors said Kilpatrick ran a "private profit machine" out of Detroit's City Hall. The government presented evidence to show he got a share of the spoils after ensuring that Bobby Ferguson's excavating company was awarded millions in work from the water department.
Business owners said they were forced to hire Ferguson as a subcontractor or risk losing city contracts. Separately, fundraiser Emma Bell said she gave Kilpatrick more than $200,000 as his personal cut of political donations, pulling cash from her bra during private meetings. A high-ranking aide, Derrick Miller, told jurors that he often was the middle-man, passing bribes from others.
Internal Revenue Service agents said Kilpatrick spent $840,000 beyond his mayoral salary.
Ferguson, Kilpatrick's pal, was also convicted of a racketeering conspiracy charge. The jury could not reach a verdict on the same charge for Kilpatrick's father, Bernard Kilpatrick, but convicted him of submitting a false tax return.
Kwame Kilpatrick, who now lives near Dallas, declined to testify. He has long denied any wrongdoing, and defense attorney James Thomas told jurors that his client often was showered with cash gifts from city workers and political supporters during holidays and birthdays.
The government said Kilpatrick abused the Civic Fund, a nonprofit fund he created to help distressed Detroit residents. There was evidence that it was used for yoga lessons, camps for his kids, golf clubs and travel.
Kilpatrick, 42, was elected in 2001 at age 31. He resigned in 2008 and pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice in a different scandal involving sexually explicit text messages and an extramarital affair with his chief-of-staff.
The Democrat spent 14 months in prison for violating probation in that case after a judge said he failed to report assets that could be put toward his $1 million restitution to Detroit.
Voters booted his mother, Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, from Congress in 2010, partly because of a negative perception of her due to her son's troubles.

American Indian tribes have tried everything from banishment to charging criminal acts as civil offenses to deal with non-Indians who commit crimes on reservations.
Ever since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 1978 that tribal courts lack criminal jurisdiction over non-Indians, tribes have had to get creative in trying to hold that population accountable. They acknowledge, though, that those approaches aren't much of a deterrent, and say most crimes committed by non-Indians on tribal land go unpunished.
Tribal leaders are hoping that will change, at least in part, with a federal bill signed into law Thursday March 7. The measure gives tribes the authority to prosecute non-Indians for a set of crimes limited to domestic violence and violations of protecting orders.
Implementation of the Violence Against Women Act will take time as tribes amend their legal codes and ensure defendants receive the same rights offered in state and federal courts. But proponents say it's a huge step forward in the face of high rates of domestic violence with no prosecution.
"For a tribal nation, it's just absurd that (authority) doesn't exist," said Sheri Freemont, director of the Family Advocacy Center on the Salt River Pima Maricopa reservation in Arizona. "People choose to either work, live or play in Indian Country. I think they should be subject to Indian Country rules."
Native American women suffer incidents of domestic violence at rates more than double national averages. But more than half of cases involving non-Indians go unprosecuted because Indian courts have lacked jurisdiction and because federal prosecutors often have too few resources to try cases on isolated reservations.
Still, the tribal courts provision was a major point of contention in Congress, with some Republicans arguing that subjecting non-Indians to Indian courts was unconstitutional.
Rep. Doc Hastings, R-Wash., said after its passage that the bill denies basic protections and will be tied up in court challenges for years.
"It violates constitutional rights of individuals and would, for the first time ever, proclaim Indian tribes' 'inherent' authority to exercise criminal jurisdiction over non-Indian citizens," Hastings said in a statement. "The Supreme Court has ruled multiple times that tribes do not have this authority."
The U.S. Department of Justice met with tribal leaders last Wednesday to discuss implementing the provisions, which will take effect two years after the law is enacted. A pilot project would allow any tribe that believes it has met the requirements to request an earlier start date.
To ease concerns that the new authority would violate the constitutional rights of a non-Indian or that jurors in tribal court would be unfair, the bill allows defendants to petition a federal court for review. A tribe would have jurisdiction over non-Indians when that person lives or works on the reservation, and is married to or in a partnership with a tribal member.
About 77 percent of people living in American Indian and Alaska Native areas are non-Indian, according to a recent Census report. Roughly half of Native American women are married to non-Indians, the Justice Department has said.
Although tribes have civil jurisdiction over non-Indians, they often are reluctant to go forward with a case when the penalty amounts to a fine and offenders have little incentive to pay it. The hope in taking on criminal cases is that incidents of domestic violence will be quelled before they lead to serious injury or death, and that victims won't be afraid to report them.
"Having the ability to do it local and have the prosecution start soon after the offense, that's just going to be great for our victims," said Fred Urbina, chief prosecutor for the Pascua Yaqui Tribe in southern Arizona.
Officers there are certified under state and federal law, which allows them to arrest non-Indians, but the cases aren't handled at the tribal level. The Pascua Yaqui Tribe also has banished some non-Indians from the reservation for criminal activity.
"It's almost like a patchwork of things we've been able to employ to fix that jurisdictional void," Urbina said. "It's not satisfactory in all cases."
Under the new law, a non-Indian defendant would have the right to a jury trial that is drawn from a cross-section of the community and doesn't systematically exclude non-Indians or other distinctive groups. The protections would equal those in state or federal court, including the right to a public defender, a judge who is licensed to practice law, a recording of the proceedings and published laws and rules of criminal procedure.
"This is not scary. It's not radical," said Troy Eid, former U.S. attorney in Colorado. "It's very much in keeping with what we have as local governments."
The safeguards are similar to those in the federal Tribal Law and Order Act, passed in 2010 to improve public safety on tribal lands.
About 30 tribes across the country are working toward a provision that allows them to increase sentencing from one year to three years, leaving them well-positioned to take authority over non-Indians in criminal matters, Eid said.
Jefferson Keel, president of the National Congress of American Indians, said in a statement that much work remains to be done to ensure tribal members are protected from domestic violence. But he said last Thursday's bill signing represents a "historic moment in the nation-to-nation relationships" between tribes and the federal government.
"Today is a great day, because it marks the beginning of justice and the end to injustice that has gone unanswered for too long," Keel said.

Michelle Obama challenged America's top CEOs on Wednesday to "think outside the box" and hire more veterans.
The first lady said that, while declines in overall unemployment are encouraging, joblessness among the 9/11 generation of veterans — those who served in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan — is nearly two points higher than the national average, at 9.4 percent. She said that figure means that about 200,000 veterans don't have jobs, not including their spouses and those who will return home after the U.S. ends its combat mission in Afghanistan.
Unemployment nationwide fell two-tenths of a point last month to 7.7 percent, its lowest level in more than four years.
Addressing a meeting of the Business Roundtable, which represents chief executive officers of the 200 largest U.S. corporations, Mrs. Obama said the "Joining Forces" campaign she launched two years ago with Jill Biden, the vice president's wife, to rally the country around its military members, has led businesses to hire or train more than 125,000 veterans and military spouses. The private sector also has pledged to hire or train 250,000 more veterans by the end of 2014.
But, the first lady said, "we've still got a lot more work to do."
"Whether you're in finance or technology or the food industry, every single one of you can ask yourselves that same question: 'What more can we do?'" she said. "So today, I want to challenge all the members of the Business Roundtable to answer that question for your business."
"Think outside the box, take real risks and work together to make big, bold commitments to hire our veterans and military spouses and help them reach their full potential within your companies. Show them that your business is there for them for the long haul," the first lady said.
In challenging the CEOs, Mrs. Obama highlighted Wal-Mart's pledge this year to hire more than 100,000 veterans in the next five years as part of its plan to help jumpstart the economy. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is the world's largest retailer and biggest private employer in the U.S. with 1.4 million workers.
Wal-Mart also has made an open-ended commitment to hire any honorably discharged veteran who is still looking for a job a year after they leave the military and wants to work for the retailer.
Separately, UPS said Wednesday that it will hire more than 25,000 veterans over the next five years and commit more than 25,000 employee volunteer hours to helping veterans and the organizations that serve them.
In her remarks, Mrs. Obama disclosed that vice presidents and human resource professionals from Business Roundtable companies met with White House officials last week to talk about how to find people with the particular skills needed at their businesses.

The Dallas population is more than 10 times what is was in 1954, the year today's Parkland hospital opened, and the region's population is expected to double again by 2025. Each year Parkland cares for more patients with no where else to turn than all other Dallas hospitals combined. That's why Parkland is building the hospital for the future today.
Pearline Frazier has lived in Dallas her entire life. Throughout those years, she has received medical care at the old Parkland hospital on Maple and Oak Lawn and the current Parkland Memorial Hospital.

Baking Discovery into the Pie: Driving Exploration within eResources Baking Discovery into the
Discovery service not doing what you hoped it would? Your library just bought a brand new video collection, but you can't you find anything in it? As models like PDA and EBA become prevalent in all media formats, ensuring patrons can find what they are looking for is more essential than ever. But many types of content simply don't rise to the top of discovery service searches, and other searches return too many unrelated results to be truly useful.
Here's an idea: how about baking discovery into the actual resource? Let two product editors and a librarian walk you through their philosophy of search–that discovery shouldn't mean losing discipline-specific searching, that videos and scores should be just as easy to find as books and periodicals, and cross-search should be a given – and then see examples of the impact this has on ease of use, find-ability, and ultimately, patron satisfaction.

Mr. Patten's bill [H. R. 32] to create the Forty-third Judicial Circuit, was read the time.
Mr. ADAMS stated that he did not desire to make a speech on the bill, but desired to state to the House that he knew concerning the necessity of this bill. In a recent conversation with the Judge of this Circuit he learned that at the close of the last term of Court the business pending was greater than at the beginning of the term. He considered it a matter of economy that the bill should pass.
Mr. HELMS desired to state that he was in favor of this bill. He had been petitioned by the entire Bar of his County with one exception to work for the passage of this bill. He was informed by an attorney of the Bar that the Court was more than a year behind. He hoped that the bill would pass.
Mr. SMITH also favored the passage of the bill.
Mr. PATTEN stated that the Court was very much behind, and it was a matter of necessity that the bill pass.
The bill passed by yeas, 75; nays, 10.
Mr. Robertson's bill [H. R. 381] to fix the time of holding Court in the Counties of Jackson and Washington, was called up.
On motion of Mr. HEFFREN the Constitutional roles were suspended, the bill read the second time by title, considered engrossed, read the third time by sections and passed the House by yeas, S3; nays, 0.
Mr. Patten's bill [H. R. 34] to legalize the election of the Board of Trustees of the town of Sullivan, Sullivan County. Indiana, was read the third time and passed the House by yeas, 80; nays, 1.

How do you walk on a 5/12 roof? Is it hard? How do you walk down it? without falling off. | |||
5/12 is nothing - up to 6/12 is easy to maintain your balance. Just don't wear hard, slick soled shoes. Beyond 6/12 is where it gets dicey and depends on your skill and balance. I can do 9/12 without heart failure. Any steeper than that and I am looking for something (valley, ridge, vent stack) to hold on to. Just the other day I watched a couple of guys on the roofing crew I use scamper all over a 12/12 without a care in the world. I am speculating that their extremely large testicles gave then a lower center of gravity and good balance. Jaybee | ||||
Its not hard, but cut wood shavings or sawdust can send you on a thrill ride you don't want to go on. | ||||
ok Thanks. | ||||
LOL Jaybee | ||||
Soft sole sneaker for asphalt shingles, rubber boots for tin. | ||||
We just did a 5/12 roof, and this is generally not too bad, but it depends on the kind of roof. For metal roofing we like soft rubber shoes with fine line sole patterns. Walmart sells a very good one with a name like Treadsafe or something like that. One trick if walking down the roof is to keep your feet parallel with the roof edge. If the roof is very high we like to put a scaffold around the edge of the roof as a worst case safety. This lets you work freely on the roof unlike a tethered fall arrest, but still have a back-up if you fall. Good luck with it. Rick Merlander Molokai Hawaii | ||||
Just be really careful. When you're up there, you'll find your footing and figure out how to walk safely. okc home builders | ||||
osha would love to hear about this, roof was so steep my helper used an extension cord as a lanyard. LOL his eyes were as wide as a saucer and white as a sheet but he didnt die, he only had to change his drawers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vn7bkncf1_E | ||||
Jaybee! 5/12 is not too bad! Just be very careful, ware good pair of shoes & get an exciting ride! | ||||

Advisory: Newsfeed prompt can cause Opera to execute arbitrary code
Highly Severe
Problem Description
When Opera encounters a newsfeed source on a Web page, it prompts to add the source as a newsfeed. A script can manipulate the feed source in a way that can cause Opera to crash. The crash is caused by an erroneous memory access. To inject code, additional techniques will have to be employed.
Opera's Response
Opera Software has released Opera 9.27 with a fix for this vulnerability.

Joss is studying Hispanic Studies at the University of Sheffield, and is spending the whole of his year abroad in Vigo, Galicia, where he is a Language Assistant. Here is his insider guide to surviving in the city - getting there, finding somewhere to live, eating and drinking, admin and ten things he wishes he'd known before he arrived in Vigo.
I started at 9.45am, 2nd class of the school day. No worries about getting there as I went to the school yesterday to explore and be shown around by the coordinator Teresa, and introduced to everyone whilst I smiled, nodded and pretended that I actually did understand every word being said to/about/next to me. Everybody was very friendly though.
Spanish people swear - a LOT. I didn't know this prior to arriving, having only socialised with students and the English ones swear in normal conversation anyway (well my friends do!).
Maya studied Spanish at Leeds Metropolitan University, and spent her year abroad as a Language Assistant at a secondary school in Spain. She is now working as a Quality Assurance Manager for a translation agency.
So it's finally happened. I have arrived in Málaga. Apologies for the lack of story-telling but it's been a hectic few days.
If you fancy improving your language skills, studying abroad as part of your degree or getting international industry experience on a work placement then British Council Study Work Create is the one stop shop to find what you're looking for.
Dazzled by all your options? Try out our quiz to help you pick the opportunity that's right for you.
Emily studies French and Philosophy at the University of Sheffield and spent her year abroad teaching English at a collège and lycée in France. Here are her top lesson plan ideas for English Language Assistants...
I am about to set off to Paris – Boulogne-Billancourt more precisely – not for a third year abroad, but for a post-graduation year abroad. Though I graduated in English Literature in June, in a few days I will be joining the scores of current language students heading to foreign shores to work as a Language Assistant with the British Council.
Jennifer studied French and German at Durham University, and spent her year abroad working as a British Council Language Assistant at four primary schools in Paris. She is now a TV weather presenter for the BBC.
Caroline did Business Studies and Spanish at Hull University and spent her year abroad as a British Council Language Assistant in Murcia, Southern Spain. She graduated in 2004 and now works for Boots UK, but over the last ten years she has kept in touch with her Spanish flatmates. Here she discusses her latest reunion...

Oh please, don't compare me to Vin, I'm blushing.
Me and the little woman at Star Tours in Tokyo, Japan!
Hei it has been a while since I was last on (I have been so, so busy it is not funny)
Here is a recent picture of me with my daughter:
Sorry that you've been so busy Devil Girl, *hug*, your pic is awesome. My daughter was wondering how you can take a pic that clear and that good if you're not in an easy position for it?
Thank you Terra (hugs) I will make time to send a message tonight I have got far too much stuff on at the moment. I barely ever get a moment to relax at all. It is a shame my mother in law does not help (LOL I call her the psycho in law) She would not even look after the younglings during the day for a few hours so Devil boy and I could go to the cinema (the last time we went out together was when we went to see Revenge of the Sith.
Awe thank you about the picture (hugs) Getting good, clear is one of the advantages of having a DSLR. You can get some really great pictures with them. It also helps that I am now got used to taking self portraits with a big camera. Lastly taking lots of pictures and editing helps. Lots of pictures mean there is more chance of finding a picture that you are happy with and the editing meant I was able to crop this image to cut out distractions, Converting it to black and white also helped it. I hope that helps.
Sorry again, what's a DSLR? Not too familiar with these abreviations.
I know what you mean about taking lots of pictures. Myself with my little digital cam I need to take like 30 and more just to get one good. Or hundreds to get a few. That thing costed me like 200 but never gets as close for quality or clearness as yours. Most of my pics are blurry, even if I do a lot of efforts to not move. Not that big a blur but enough to make it difficult to get something nice bigger than, let's say, magazine size.
Most of my family and friends are fans of your pics now Don't stop! :D

Here is a Wikipedia article ( Link )
The DSLR that I have got is a budget one. The only reason we could afford it was because it was a discontinued model (we got it from Ebay for £300, it was originally 799 when released) I love it though. LOL it may sound funny but it does feel better having a DSLR (I have an Olympus E-510 )
Hehe I know what you mean. There has been times when I have taken 100 picturtes just to get one that I am happy with.
LOL tonight I have 2GB of pictures to look through to sort out which of todays pictures that I like.
Awe thank you. That is really funky you have made my day by saying that. I will not be stopping (I am having far too much fun to do so)

That's a lot of pictures to look through. You're much less lazy than I am.
Ah come on , Boba_The_Fett you don't REALLY look like that. Don't we all wish we had a suit of Mandalorian armor.
You don't like my pic?
That's like me saying I look like this xD :
doesn't everyone wish they could be Jason Statham?
You don't like my pic?
I like a pic of Boba Fett anytime. So yes I do sorry for the misimpression.
Hmm....managed to find a couple from one of our more entertaining days up here.
We call them the 'worm pits'. I know I look half-retarded but hey, the sun was in my eyes. Anyway this attractive picture of yours truly made it onto the cover of our school's rook week dvd, I was quite flattered.
This one was taken the same day, but post-worm pits. We went on a jolly little run through a nearby river for awhile, each lugging a stupidly heavy rock that was supposed to serve a reminder of what we'd worked for - most of em get used as door stops. I'm the one at the front of the line blocking that golf cart deal.
Hey SciFifreak90 ... so what happened to ya? How ya end up in the worm pit? Glad you made it out
It's tradition, we all went through em.
Me of late. btw long time no see!

You're looking pretty good Alo Fett, are you a camera man?
Picture taken with webcam, so not that great.

Here is a picture of me with my old red wig that I found recently (I think I am going to have to get more wigs now )
Cecilia, gotta love them, they shine! They look awesome. I hope they're not too heavy though. Metal-framed glasses tend to feel heavy on my nose.
Dev this is too cool! I bet you had fun wearing it.

I created the blog Austin Tech Geeks in August of last year. It's been somewhat successful as I have been able to get a decent number of subscribers and uniques every month. The blog is about tech events, meetups, jobs and tech news related to the city of Austin, TX... I also like to write posts where I share my opinion about stuff related to people in the tech industry, etc...
I need to change the name of the blog, the domain name, LinkedIn group and a Twitter account, all with the same name. I was thinking of using a name that is more generic than the current one (at least geographically) or maybe not... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
The current url for this blog is austintechgeeks.com and I need to change the name for legal reasons.
I am thinking on using cityhackers.com - thoughts?

Country Analysis Brief Overview
- Angola is the second-largest oil producer in Sub-Saharan Africa behind Nigeria, and recent exploration suggests that Angola's reserves may be larger than initially estimated.
- Successful exploration in Angola's pre-salt formations continues to drive optimistic oil production forecasts for the country, and the Angolan government is targeting 2 million barrel per day production levels by 2014.
- With the first cargo of liquefied natural gas (LNG) scheduled to leave Angola in early 2013, the country is in a position to capitalize on the high demand for LNG to bolster its export portfolio.
- Angola's fractured electricity system serves 30 percent of the population and progress towards providing greater access is proving difficult. The Angolan government plans to invest billions of dollars in the country's electricity system, but in the short-term access to power will remain a challenge.

When I was eighteen and it's brought the surgery -- to me I just lost my mom two years before.
And he said -- need to be incredibly vigilant you know this is something that not only took your mom but your grandmother and your great aunts and he brought up the idea of having the surgery and at first I was so taken back as a dad now on I'm not doing that you know some incredibly invasive surgery you know I just and developing into the body that I have now.
But he looked me straight in the face and said you're gonna and the dead like your mom.
And you know I was so.
So taken back at that.
Because -- I just lost my mom it was so typical.
To deal with that -- to have him and be that brutally honest -- my face but.
I think over the time.
You know -- years gone by I realized the wisdom and -- mark and he just wanted me to be alive.
And the more did my research -- found out my mom is diagnosed.
With a stage three invasive breast cancer those killed are 27.

And so I said you know I think this might be their decision helped prolong my life.
Have you spoken to doctors found and -- and have been tested to see whether -- carry the gene that today is is associated with breast cancer yes I'm actually -- one and two mutation negative.

My -- was a marathon runner you know she had a raw food diet she lived in Hawaii about as healthy as you can possibly get and -- didn't stop her from getting cancer.
So if I can do something to decrease my likelihood of developing breast cancer by.
Upwards of 90% that's what I'm gonna do you know I will allow women would find great difficulty making a decision like that especially someone the united attractive young woman a woman that -- -- but.
You don't you don't have that -- them well.
I mean I read -- Entry from my mom -- her journal when she was talking to me and she said you know I'm so sorry to leave field because -- need me for many years and not just a few.
And it really put me in the position of what it was like to be my mom.
And to struggle writing that letter to know that she was a -- battle with breast cancer she's reliever children and her husband and I but I -- want that to me.
And I can live my life without my breasts if that means I get to live -- long healthy life with my family.
