Five years after Hurricane Katrina's wrath, President Barack Obama sought to reassure disaster-weary Gulf Coast residents Sunday that he would not abandon their cause.
"My administration is going to stand with you, and fight alongside you, until the job is done," Obama said to cheers at Xavier University, a historically black, Catholic university that was badly flooded by the storm.
The president said there are still too many vacant lots, trailers serving as classrooms, displaced residents and people out of work. But he said New Orleanians have showed amazing resilience.
"Because of you," the president declared, "New Orleans is coming back."
Obama spoke five years to the day from when Hurricane Katrina roared onshore in Louisiana, tearing through levees and flooding 80 percent of New Orleans. More than 1,800 people along the Gulf Coast died, mostly in Louisiana.
Even as the region struggled to put despair behind it, hardship struck again this year in the form of the BP oil spill. More than 200 million gallons of oil surged into the Gulf of Mexico before the well was capped in mid-July. New Orleans' economy, heavily dependent on tourism and the oil and gas industry, was set back anew.
Standing in front of a large American flag with students arrayed behind him, Obama boasted of his administration's efforts to respond to the Gulf spill, saying one of his promises — to stop the leak — has been kept.
"The second promise I made was that we would stick with our efforts, and stay on BP, until the damage to the Gulf and to the lives of the people in this region was reversed," Obama said. "And this, too, is a promise we will keep."
But Obama's speech didn't offer any new plans for restoring the Gulf, bringing New Orleans' fast-disappearing wetlands back to life or cleaning up BP's spilled oil. Some residents had hoped Obama would take the opportunity to announce an early end to the deepwater drilling moratorium he enacted after the spill. But he made no mention of the moratorium, which people here say is costing jobs.
Obama did offer a list of accomplishments on Katrina recovery he said his administration has achieved, including helping move residents out of temporary housing, streamlining money for schools and restoration projects, and working to rebuild the poorly maintained levee system that failed the city when Katrina struck.
He promised that work on a fortified levee system would be finished by next year, "so that this city is protected against a 100-year storm. Because we should not be playing Russian roulette every hurricane season."
Implicit in Obama's remarks was an indictment of sorts against former President George W. Bush's administration for its handling of the crisis. Obama called Katrina and its aftermath not just a natural disaster but "a manmade catastrophe — a shameful breakdown in government that left countless men, women and children abandoned and alone."
But Obama has faced questions of his own about how his administration handled the Gulf spill, including accusations officials moved too slowly and deferred too much to BP. The White House has scrambled repeatedly to right the response, pleasing Gulf Coast residents with a $20 billion victims' compensation fund Obama pushed BP to establish. But there is still plenty of skepticism among Gulf Coast residents about government promises, and Obama sought to alleviate that.
"In Washington, we are restoring competence and accountability," he said. "We're putting in place reforms so that never again in America is someone left behind in a disaster."
Arriving without any new policy announcements or benefits for the city, Obama appeared to hope in part that his mere presence would reassure residents they were not forgotten. For some, it might have been enough.
Before his speech Obama dropped in at the Parkway Bakery and Tavern, a local institution known for shrimp and roast beef po'boys, which was underwater after Katrina. "I appreciate you coming here," one woman told him. He responded with a hug.
Across the city, residents found ways to commemorate the devastating storm.
Two strangers shared an umbrella and a somber embrace Sunday as they scanned 163 names on a marble wall honoring those who died in Louisiana's coastal St. Bernard Parish when Katrina wracked the region.
Gladys Nunez and Linda Wells didn't know each other before a service at the site — but both knew too many of the names etched onto the memorial, friends and neighbors who perished in the storm's chaos five years ago. Nunez wrapped her arm around Wells, who was visiting the site for the first time.
"I had to come see for myself and try to put this behind me," said Wells, 50, of Chalmette.
Nunez, 68, of Toca, said: "It's something we'll live with for the rest of our life. It never goes away. Katrina showed no mercy."
Memorials were planned across the Gulf Coast from New Orleans' Lower 9th Ward to Biloxi, Miss., to mourn the hundreds who died when Katrina hit on Aug. 29, 2005. For many, though, it also was a time to reflect on how far the region has come since then, everything that's been restored.
More than 100 people braved Sunday's soggy weather for the memorial service in Shell Beach, where parish officials read aloud all 163 names on the memorial. After a moment of silence, Diane Phillips, 51, of Hopedale, volunteered to lay a wreath in the bayou. Some wiped away tears as the wreath floated away. Phillips had two cousins and several close friends who died in the storm.
"I didn't think of one person when we did the wreath," she said. "You think of the whole entire parish and everything that we lost that day and everything that we've brought back since then."
Indeed, for many on the Gulf Coast — still reeling from the massive BP oil spill — the mood is still one of mourning. In New Orleans, the bells will toll at St. Louis Cathedral in honor of the dead.
Other ceremonies were to focus on rebuilding and moving on. A "healing ceremony" and march were planned in the Lower 9th Ward — where only about a quarter of the 5,400 homes that stood in the area before the storm have been rebuilt. Many still bear a constant reminder of Katrina, spray-painted circles indicating they had been searched and whether bodies were inside.
"I'm tired of the anniversaries," Barbara Washington, 77, said Saturday at a symbolic funeral and burial for the storm in Chalmette, La. She lost her home in New Orleans and is now living in a suburb. "I miss my home every day. I feel lost. But I also know we are getting back. We're survivors."
At the symbolic burial Saturday in Chalmette, mourners filled a steel-gray casket with notes, cards and letters.
One, written by a child in red crayon, said: "Go away from us."

Blondies Recipe
I think that I might be the only person in the whole world who prefers blondies to brownies. This might have something to do with the fact that while I have made several dozen successful batches of blondies, I have yet to make even a small pan of edible brownies. But this isn't purely an ego thing. The combination of butterscotch and dark brown sugar in blondies does something for me that even brownies made with the finest cocoa powder can't hold a candle to.
I thought that these blondies from Elizabeth Barbone's Easy Gluten-Free Baking would make a prefect gluten-free dessert. The richness comes from butter, eggs, and brown sugar. Throw in some chocolate chips and chopped nuts and the fact that these babies don't contain any wheat flour will be the last thing on your mind.
- Yield:1 dozen bars
- Gluten-free nonstick cooking spray
- Dry Ingredients
- 3/4 cup white rice flour
- 1/4 cup sweet rice flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
- 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoons butterscotch oil or 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease an 8-inch square pan with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, whisk together dry ingredients.
In a medium bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. (Use medium-high speed on a handheld mixer, medium speed on a stand mixer.) Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add dry ingredients and butterscotch oil or vanilla. Blend for 1 minute. Batter will be thick.
Pour the batter into prepared pan. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center of the pan comes out clean.
Remove pan from oven and place on a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into 12 squares.

It's human nature to look up at the stars and wonder what's out there. Becoming an astronaut and going outer space is every kid's dream. But sometimes it's more eye opening to explore what's here. Like in the ocean. Like deep underwater. Like inside alien-looking caves. It's utterly terrifying.
The video taken by Tony Sellers starts out beautifully but then slowly creeps itself into a sort of silent terror. You hear breathing and bubbles and you see the divers crawl into impossible spaces and you're halfway expecting something to go wrong. You watch with a sense of foreboding. But you can't stop watching because you want to know what happens next. But there's no monster at the end of the ocean, it's just you wondering how to get back.

If you want to stop social networking services from exploiting your likeness for advertising, you've got to start paying up.
Instagram is changing its terms of use in January. Included in the new legalese is one section that has some power users, including The New York Times' Nick Bilton, feeling queasy:
Some or all of the Service may be supported by advertising revenue. To help us deliver interesting paid or sponsored content or promotions, you agree that a business or other entity may pay us to display your username, likeness, photos (along with any associated metadata), and/or actions you take, in connection with paid or sponsored content or promotions, without any compensation to you.
Note the key parenthetical -- "(along with any associated metadata)" -- which you could read as "location data." In essence, if you go to the Palms in Las Vegas and snap a pic...
Not that any of this is all that surprising. It's a free service that's been focused on building user engagement, et cetera, in hopes of selling that engagement to advertisers.
Which reminds me of this wonderful mini-rant from Pinboard's Maciej Ceglowski, who identifies the key problem:
To avoid this problem, avoid mom-and-pop projects that don't take your money! You might call this the anti-free-software movement.
If every additional user is putting money in the developers' pockets, then you're less likely to see the site disappear overnight. If every new user is costing the developers money, and the site is really taking off, then get ready to read about those synergies.
To illustrate, I have prepared this handy chart:
Free Paid Stagnant losing money making money Growing losing more money making more money Exploding losing lots of money making lots of money
Under these conditions, companies have to sell themselves because they do not have a sustainable business. And when they're sold, they either A) get shut down or B) become part of an advertising machine, like Facebook's.
Truly, the only way to get around the privacy problems inherent in advertising-supported social networks is to pay for services that we value. It's amazing what power we gain in becoming paying customers instead of the product being sold.
Here's an alternative version of what Instagram could have done before Facebook purchased them. Instagram has, what, 100 million users? If they got $5 a month from 20 million of those users, they'd be looking at $300 million in quarterly revenue. That's a nice chunk of change when you have a baker's dozen employees. You think those guys could split more than a billion dollars a year and call it good. Or hell, make the user numbers an order of magnitude smaller: 2 million out of 10 million users. That's still $30 million dollars a quarter for 13 guys.

Glenmark Announces a New Discovery and the Initiation of IND Enabling Studies of a Novel Monoclonal Antibody Targeting OX40
04 Feb, 2013, 11:08 GMT
MUMBAI, India, February 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
- GBR 830 is the first antagonistic antibody targeting OX40 and is a potential Global First-in-class molecule
- OX40, also known as CD134, plays a key role in T-cell mediated autoimmune disorders.
Glenmark Pharmaceuticals S.A. (GPSA), a wholly owned subsidiary of Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Limited India (GPL), announces the discovery and initiation of IND enabling studies of a novel clinical development candidate, GBR 830, an anti-OX40 monoclonal antibody. GBR 830 has been discovered and developed by the Glenmark Biologics Research Centre located in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. GBR 830, an anti-OX40 monoclonal antibody is a potential Global First-in-class molecule
OX40 is a well known target and the development of OX40 antagonists has been very challenging. Glenmark has achieved a significant milestone with the successful generation of an antagonistic OX40 monoclonal antibody coupled with generation of data validating the role of OX40 in autoimmune diseases.
GBR 830 shows great promise to emerge as a valuable therapeutic option to treat patients suffering from immune pathologies such as autoimmune diseases like Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
Commenting on this milestone, Dr. Michael Buschle, Chief Scientific Officer & President - Biologics, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals mentioned "GBR 830 is a tremendous achievement for us. No antagonistic antibodies targeting OX40 are currently in clinical stage of development. We are confident that the antibody expertise and product development capabilities of the Switzerland Biologics Research Centre will continue to enrich the Glenmark discovery pipeline."
About OX40
OX40 (CD134) is a member of the TNFR/TNF super family and is mainly expressed on activated CD4 and CD8 T cells as well as a number of other lymphoid and non-lymphoid cells. Costimulatory signals from OX40 to an activated T cell promote division and survival, augmenting the clonal expansion of effector and memory populations. OX40 mediated costimulatory signaling plays a central role in the development of multiple inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Inhibiting these interactions can be used to treat these conditions. Conversely, agents that activate OX40 are being developed to activate T-cells to target cancer cells. No OX40 antagonistic antibodies are currently in clinical stage of development.
Glenmark's Novel Biologics Entity pipeline
With the addition of GBR 830 to the pipeline, Glenmark will now have three monoclonal antibodies in the Novel Biologics Entity (NBE) pipeline. First, GBR 500, a monoclonal antibody represents a first-in-class opportunity indicated for the treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and Multiple Sclerosis (MS). GBR 500 has been licensed to Sanofi and is in Phase II trials in the US. The second monoclonal antibody, GBR 900 targets the TrkA receptor for pain. This project is developed under license from Lay Line Genomics S.p.A., an Italian based Company. Monoclonal antibodies specific for TrkA represent a first-in-class opportunity for the treatment of chronic pain, which has a high level of unmet need. GBR 900 is in the pre-clinical stage of development and will be developed further by Glenmark Biologics Research Centre in Switzerland.
About Glenmark

Good news: Yesterday they moved gotop100.com to another server. Everything seems to work properly now .
Not good news:
BUT they did no final synchronization of data right before switching DNS to new server.
Because of such actions some changes that were made to toplists or sites in some yesterday's short period of time can be lost.
If you made any changes to your toplists or sites yesterday then please check them and if they are not saved then please redo them.

How to Make Raines Law Room's Pioneer Spirit
Get the Recipe
If you like an Old Fashioned, you should probably be sipping on a Pioneer Spirit when you go to Raines Law Room in NYC. You'll find it in the "Stirred and Strong" section of their menu; this whiskey-forward cocktail is an original take on the classic.
"I love using domestic spirits," says head bartender Meaghan Dorman, who gives the drink a stiff base with Vermont's stellar WhistlePig rye. She adds more East Coast flavor by way of New Jersey's Laird's apple brandy. "Lots of people are unfamiliar with Laird's, so this is a nice way to introduce them to it. Some people correlate apple brandy with green-apple martinis, and it's nothing like that. It's more like an apple whiskey."
The apple brandy speaks to the whiskey's warmer notes, and the WhistlePig rye brings plenty of peppery spice to the glass, but little burn, thanks to ten years in the barrel. "With age, it moves away from the toffee-vanilla profile of younger whiskeys, into more of a hazelnut, fruitcake flavor," notes Dorman.
She plays up these autumnal undertones, sweetening the cocktail with orgeat. An almond-based syrup with a touch of flower water, the orgeat stands in for the Old Fashioned's sugar cube. Keeping with tradition, Dorman adds a couple aromatic dashes of Angostura bitters.
She builds the drink right in the double rocks glass, adding a large ice cube and giving it a stir. She tops it off with a substantial orange peel, expressing the citrus oil before setting it in the glass.
The decidedly stiff outcome will delight whiskey drinkers and—especially when drunk slowly (careful standing up if you're doing it any other way)—open unacquainted eyes to the wonderfully versatile world of apple brandy and the nutty nuances of rye.

NEW YORK — Plenty of VIPs have come backstage to cheer the cast of "Peter and the Starcatcher." The prequel to "Peter Pan" has attracted the likes of Tyra Banks, Clive Owen, Anna Wintour and Bill Gates.
But two celebrities have really stood out — Sandy Duncan and Cathy Rigby. That's right: Two iconic Peter Pans have come to throw their support behind the latest one.
"It was one of the best things I've ever seen and I don't usually gush but I'm protective of the part because I love it so much," said Rigby, who saw it Oct. 14. Duncan caught it — for the second time — three days before. "I can't say enough about it," she said.
The inventive show, adapted by "Jersey Boys" co-writer Rick Elice from Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson's best-selling 2004 children's adventure book, tells the story of how an English orphan became Peter Pan.
It digs into a story that both Duncan and Rigby have thought a lot about. Duncan, 66, played Peter more than 550 times on Broadway starting in 1979 and then took her role out on tour. She estimates she's played the boy who won't grow up at least 1,000 times.
Rigby, 59, has never really left the role, playing it on Broadway in 1990, then taking it on tour from 1998-99, which led to another tour from 2004-05, and has been on the road since 2011. She just took it to Macau, where she learned to say "Do you believe in fairies?" in Chinese.
While "Peter and the Starcatcher" features 12 actors in 20 scenes playing 50 characters, the nights Duncan and Rigby came by were perhaps most stressful for Adam Chanler-Berat, who plays Peter.
"It felt like Peter was out there watching me do Peter," says Chanler-Berat. "Sometimes, to motivate yourself, you pretend like the person that you're playing is out there in the audience that night and in some ways it felt like that."
Although he's never seen either woman play the role — he admits he was a fan of the Mary Martin version and the animated Disney film growing up — he quickly learned about the other Peters.
"When you take on this sort of project, the legacy follows with you, and I was very aware of the famous women that have played the part before," says Chanler-Berat, whose other credits include "Next to Normal" and the recent off-Broadway revival of "Rent."
"I was really struck by the graciousness of the two of them," he added. "To someone who's been with the part for such a long time, it was nice and relieving to know that they felt like we're doing this story justice."
One thing that calmed Chanler-Berat was the fact that his show is a prequel, meaning he had artistic license. "It's like the ultimate trump card," he says, laughing. "It's like, 'I was the prequel. I came before so I can escape any responsibility.'"
"Peter and the Starcatcher" uses simple props — a few lengths of rope for a ship's hull, a yellow kitchen glove becomes a tropical bird and spray bottles of water mimic crashing waves. One crowd-pleaser is the character of Black Stache, a pirate with a huge fake mustache who will later be known as Captain Hook.
Both women hope the Tony Award-nominated show will endure past its closing date of Jan. 20. Even if it doesn't, a national tour will be launched in 2013 starting in Denver.
"It's so inventive and so hysterical and just captures, I think, the magic. The heart of the story is there," said Rigby, who is scheduled to keep swinging around as Peter during her current tour until April.
While the cast may have been nervous to meet the actresses, Rigby had her own odd moment when she saw "Peter and the Starcatcher." As the last scene unwound, she fished in her purse for her lipstick and put it on her lips.
"Then I realized that I just bought a black eyeliner pencil. So, in the dark, I'm actually putting black eyeliner all over my lips," she said, laughing. "I'm thinking Black Stache has cursed me. I wiped it off with the inside of my sleeve and laughed at myself for being so silly."
In the end, Chanler-Berat says he was deeply touched by meeting the other Peters. All three are very different people but they have something special in common.
"It's funny, you've never met that person before but you know a great deal about that person," he says. "That's what it felt like. It felt like you all shared a secret that no one else has."

Tobias Schlitt has posted about a new component for the eZ components (PHP based) system he develops for - a WebDAV module.
Starting by the end of August we spent almost whole September full-time on designing and implementing this component. The goal was to design a flexible WebDAV server component, which can be used to edit whatever data source on an HTTP server through the WebDAV extension of the protocol, with the full lot of concerns in mind.
Included in the post is an image showing the architecture of the component and a mention that, if you're attending this year's International PHP Conference (2007), you'll be able to see it in action.

Hundreds of families affected by floods caused by heavy rains that started with the beginning of the winter (rainy) season
Source: GlideNumber
The Colombian Red Cross said Wednesday that 3,000 families across the country have been affected the floods, landslides and high winds that have battered the country in the last two weeks, according to Caracol Radio.
The central Colombian department of Risaralda was battered with heavy rains and gail force winds over Easter, leaving 80 families homeless.
Most of the damage was in the departments of Antioquia, Cauca, Choco and Caqueta Quindio, but the Red Cross said that the families struggling to deal with the devastation were spread over twelve departments.
The Red Cross has called on local authorities to implement permanent systems to monitor the levels of river and streams and the conditions of hillsides.
The relief agency said that it was vital to have such preventative measures in place, as well as adequate emergency response plans to lessen the effects of natural disasters.

Since 2014 C.R Archaeology have been the principle archaeologist at the new school development at Llanfaethlu Anglesey on behalf of Anglesey council. A desk based assessment, geophysics and trenching uncovered a large amount of late #Neolithic pit and a possibly #Neolithic house.

How to Clean Your Laptop
31 Days of Spring Cleaning: Clean Your Laptop
Kitty is not impressed with the state of your laptop. We eat, work, and sometimes even sleep within a hand's reach of our laptops, and these lifelines to entertainment and Internet goodness can get pretty dirty. To keep your computer in beautiful condition, make a habit of cleaning it once a week. Use these tips to ensure your laptop looks as fresh as the day you unboxed it.
- Use kosher cleaning products — By kosher, I mean LCD-approved! You can't use just any old household cleaner to spruce up your delicate laptop screen and body — stay away from any all-purpose household cleaners and anything containing acetone, ammonia, or alcohol, which will strip away your LCD's protective coating. Use a soft cloth (like a microfiber) to wipe down your monitor and screen, steering clear of paper or bath towels, which will cause scratching. If a dry wipe-down won't cut it, try using distilled water or a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and distilled water, and use light, rapid circular movements to help reduce streaking.
- Blast away — Grab a can of condensed air and blast out the dirt, grime, and crumbs hiding between keyboard keys. Use a toothbrush to sweep away all the findings.
- Mouse time — Pair your laptop with an external mouse? Clean it with a basic white piece of paper. Slowly drag the mouse from the top of the piece of paper to the bottom. Repeat sideways if any dirt still appears on paper. The paper should instantly move the dirt away from the pads on the bottom of the mouse!
- Recycle properly — If you're cleaning the laptop to upgrade to a newer and sexier model, make sure you're breaking it off with your old computer the right way. Suss out recycling centers in your area, resell it, donate it, or just drop it off at Best Buy for fast and easy recycling. In any case, be sure to wipe your hard drive of any personal information and do a factory reset to make sure you're clear.
