Re: The Fall of Cadia
SPOILERS! Cadia is not conquered. It blows up when the pylons overload and the Warp surges out to expand the Eye. Creed maybe dead but I'm not sure. Source? Certainly makes sense, I've already read a bunch of other spoilers about which characters survive and how Creed is listed as MIA while the...

Re: The Fall of Cadia
Something thats relevant to this game though: the Planetkiller versus the Phalanx. Ship that can destroy planets versus the largest Imperial warship in the galaxy that (depending on sources) was either built by a primarch or is from the Dark Age of Technology. Would be pretty epic battle to watch

Re: left hand marines?
The crappy answer is that GW just cast assault marines and terminators with the melee weapons in their left hands. Meanwhile vanguard veterans, Calgar's honour guard, the plastic Captain, and many others (most of the ICs actually, come to think of it) have their blades in their right hand. It just c...

Re: kroot system targeting

Krisztina Hegedűs
My story began 1,5 years ago after my mentor introduced me to the Nu Skin products. It was love at first sight! Then, when I was presented with information about the business, company, science and the technologies behind the products, and I understood the company's vision, I decided to fully commit myself to Nu Skin.
This opportunity changed my life completely. I have the chance to develop an international business, working from home beside my girls, and to take advantage, not only from a stable financial business, but also have the freedom to which most people only dream of. Now I can offer the best to my children and family.
However, the biggest change took place within me. I have changed my attitude completely and have become a more open and positive person. I have learned to have more confidence in myself. And I understand perhaps maybe the most important thing in life: everything that may seem impossible at first, may become possible the moment you have enough trust in yourself and start working daily towards achieving it. There is no limit!
I met wonderful people on this journey whom I've learned so much from. Both my mentors and my team members always make me feel like part of a big family. These people motivate and inspire me every day.
I witnessed some amazing successes in my organisation and this motivates me daily to continue what I do. This opportunity changed many lives and I am thankful every day for the fact that I can also be a witness to some unique success stories.
My goal is to become a Blue Diamond as soon as possible, but I surely will not stop there. I would like to offer to as many people as possible, especially in Romania, this chance to change their lives for the better and to accomplish their dreams. I also want to be a "force for good".

the top 10 from About.com/alcoholism;
1. Government Cracks Down on "Fake Cocaine" Bath Salts
One of the biggest drug abuse issues of the year involved an increase in emergency room visits by young people using products sold as "bath salts," which are basically fake cocaine. After several states began to ban the sale of the products, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration banned the chemicals used to make fake cocaine nationwide.
2. Survey Shows Large Increase in Marijuana Smokers
When the latest government study indicated a huge 20% increase in the number of Americans 12 and older who said they smoke marijuana, the question arose as to whether this reflected an actual increase in smokers or did it reflect whether changing attitudes caused more people to admit they smoke weed. Regardless, illegal drug use in general is increasing.
3. Florida Begins Drug-Testing Welfare Recipients
In one of the most controversial moves of the year, Florida became the first state to initiate drug screening for all adults applying for the federal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program. Applicants will have to pay to take the drug screening tests and will be reimbursed if they qualify for the program
4. Singer Amy Winehouse Dead at 27
British singer Amy Winehouse's long battle with substance abuse came to an end when she was found dead in her London home. Family members speculated that she died as a result of severe alcohol withdrawal symptoms, but her autopsy revealed that she had a fatal blood-alcohol level at the time of her death.
5. "No Refusal" Strategy Stops Drunk Drivers
Law enforcement officials across the nation found a new tool in the crackdown on drunken drivers. By having judges on call during "no refusal" campaigns, officers can quickly get warrants to take blood samples from drivers who refuse to submit to breathalyzer tests.
6. Hepatitis C Cases Decline Dramatically
Injection-drug users still make up about 46% of all newly diagnosed cases of acute hepatitis C, but new cases of the virus have declined by 90% between 1994 and 2006, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Clean blood supply and safe needle-exchange programs were credited with the dramatic drop.
7. Using Medical Marijuana Can Get You Fired
A federal judge ruled that employers have the right to fire employees who test positive for marijuana even if they live in a state where medical marijuana is legal and they have a prescription to use the drug for a legitimate medical purpose.
8. Florida Cracks Down on "Pill Mills"
A new Florida law established a prescription drug-monitoring database system to fight the state's huge oxycodone sales problem. The system will be funded by local law enforcement agencies using forfeiture funds. Pharmaceutical companies are specifically forbidden to fund the monitoring system.
9. Pharmacies Enter Prescription Drug Abuse Fight
The growth in prescription drugs abuse, ruled this year as an epidemic, prompted the National Association of Chain Drug Stores to join the effort to fight the problem. The association supported steps by Congress to reduce prescription drug abuse, misuse, diversion and fraud.
10. Ecstasy Safety Campaign Draws Criticism
A safety campaign aimed at reducing harm among young Los Angeles ravers who use the drug ecstasy drew fire from critics, who claimed it was sending the wrong message. The Department of Public Health's flyers were designed to minimize potential harm, but critics said the message should be there is no safe way to use the drug.

the disease concept
excellent view from Psychology Today
by Lance Dodes M.D.
For many decades it's been widely accepted that alcoholism (or addiction) is a disease. The "disease concept" is taught in addiction training programs and told to patients in treatment programs. It is unquestioned by public figures and the media. But is it true? And if it is not true, is there a better and more helpful way to define addiction?
Widespread enthusiasm for the disease model, however, has led to willingness to overlook the facts. Addiction has very little in common with diseases. It is a group of behaviors, not an illness on its own. It cannot be explained by any disease process. Perhaps worst of all, calling addiction a "disease" interferes with exploring or accepting new understandings of the nature of addiction.
But if we are to scrap the disease concept and replace it with something valid, our new explanation must retain all the beneficial aspects of the old disease idea. It must not allow moralizing or any other negative attributions to people suffering with addictions. In fact, we'd hope an alternative explanation would have more value than the disease label, by giving people with addictions something the disease concept lacks: an understanding that is useful for treating the problem.
Despite all its past helpfulness, then, we are better off today without the disease idea of addiction. For too long it has served as a kind of "black box" description that explains nothing, offers no help in treatment, and interferes with recognizing newer ways to understand and treat the problem.
And there is one more advantage. If we can eliminate the empty "disease" label, then people who suffer with an addiction can finally stop thinking of themselves as "diseased."

unnecessary holiday panic
in the rooms this time of year, there
is always talk of the pressure of holidays
and the temptation to drink
well guess what, for many the thought
of a drink occurs all year long
the stress of the holidays is there for
most people, and all the fuss alky's
express during these times is unwarranted
just go with the flow; if you know you are
going to be uncomfortable, choose your
situations wisely.
no matter where you are or who you're
with the decision is up to you...deal with it

The intergalactic war of Ironclad Games' real-time strategy game Sins of a Solar Empire has gone on too long, prompting the game's third expansion, Rebellion, packed with new tech and ships capable of destroying entire fleets all by their lonesome.
Diplomacy is no longer an option in Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion. Sub-factions have risen up, giving players of the space-faring strategy game a choice: Stand with the Loyalists, or join the Rebels striving to bring about change. Either choice leads to new tech trees unlocking powerful technology and ship variants to further the war that continues with or without the internal struggle.
New features of Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion include massive Titan-class ships that eat other ships for breakfast, new Corvette and Capital ships, Loyalist and Rebel versions of some of the game's existing rides, and enhanced capabilities for those ships, giving players more strategic options.
The expansion will also upgrade lighting and particle effects, while integrating support for Stardock's Impulse::Reactor service, allowing players to chat with friends and unlock achievements. Ooo.
Sins of the Solar Empire: Rebellion is newly announced at GDC 2011, where several of Kotaku's finest are currently converging for a week filled with spectacular video game news.

Bible Commentaries
Adam Clarke Commentary
Resource Toolbox
Other Authors
The Lord is praised for his works of creation, Psalm 33:1-9; and for the stability of his own counsels, Psalm 33:10, Psalm 33:11. The blessedness of the people who have the knowledge of the true God, his grace, and providence, Psalm 33:12-15. The vanity of all earthly dependence, Psalm 33:16, Psalm 33:17. The happiness of them that fear God, and trust in his mercy, Psalm 33:18-22.
This Psalm has no title in the Hebrew and it was probably written on no particular occasion, but was intended as a hymn of praise in order to celebrate the power, wisdom, and mercy of God. Creation and providence are its principal subjects; and these lead the psalmist to glance at different parts of the ancient Jewish history. In eight of Kennicott's MSS., this Psalm is written as a part of the preceding.
Rejoice in the Lord - It is very likely that the last verse of the preceding Psalm was formerly the first verse of this. As this Psalm has no title, the verse was the more easily separated. In the preceding Psalm we have an account of the happiness of the justified man: in this, such are taught how to glorify God, and to praise him for the great things he had done for them.
Praise is comely for the upright - It is right they should give thanks to Him, who is the fountain whence they have received all the good they possess and thankfulness becomes the lips of the upright.
Praise the Lord with harp - כנור kinnor ; probably something like our harp: but Calmet thinks it the ancient testudo, or lyre with three strings.
The psalter - נבל nebel . Our translation seems to make a third instrument in this place, by rendering עשור asor, an instrument of ten strings; whereas they should both be joined together, for עשור נבל nebel -asor signifies the nebal, or nabla, with ten strings, or holes. Calmet supposes this to have resembled our harp. In one of Kennicott's MSS., this Psalm begins with the second verse.
Sing unto him a new song - Do not wear out the old forms: fresh mercies call for new songs of praise and gratitude.
Play skilfully with a loud noise - Let sense and sound accompany each other; let the style of the music be suited to the words. This skill is possessed by few singers. They can make a loud noise, but they cannot adapt sound to sense.
The word of the Lord is right - He is infinitely wise, and can make no mistakes; and all his works are done in truth. All the words, laws, promises, and threatenings of God are perfectly true and just. The dispensations of his providence and mercy are equally so. When he rewards or punishes, it is according to truth and justice.
He loveth righteousness - What he delights in himself, he loves to see in his followers.
The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord - To hear its worthless inhabitants complain, one would think that God dispensed evil, not good. To examine the operation of his hand, every thing is marked with mercy and there is no place where his goodness does not appear. The overflowing kindness of God fills the earth. Even the iniquities of men are rarely a bar to his goodness: he causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends his rain upon the just and the unjust.
By the word of the Lord were the heavens made - This is illustrated in the Psalm 33:9; verse: "He spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast." This evidently refers to the account of the creation, as it stands in the first chapter of Genesis.
He gathereth the waters of the sea together - He separated the water from the earth and, while the latter was collected into continents, islands, mountains, hills, and valleys, the former was collected into one place, and called seas; and by his all-controlling power and providence the waters have been retained in their place, so that they have not returned to drown the earth: and he has so adapted the solar and sonar influence exerted on the waters, that the tides are only raised to certain heights, so that they cannot overflow the shores, nor become dissipated in the atmospheric regions. In this one economy there is a whole circle of science. The quantity of matter in the sun, moon, and in the earth, are all adjusted to each other in this astonishing provision: the course of the moon, and the diurnal and annual revolutions of the earth, are all concerned here; and so concerned, that it requires some of the nicest of the Newtonian calculations to ascertain the laws by which the whole is affected.
Let all the earth fear the Lord - He who has thus bound, can unloose; he who has created, can destroy. He has promised life and prosperity only to the godly; let the ungodly stand in awe of him.
The counsel of the heathen to naught - This appears to be similar to what is mentioned in the second Psalm; the useless attempts of the Gentiles to prevent the extension of the kingdom of Christ in the earth: and it may refer to similar attempts of ungodly nations or men to prevent the promulgation of the Gospel, and the universal dissemination of truth in the world.
The counsel of the Lord - What he has determined shall be done. He determined to make a world, and he made it; to create man, and he created him. He determined that at a certain period God should be manifested in the flesh, and it was so; that he should taste death for every man, and he did so; that his Gospel should be preached in all the world; and behold it has already nearly overrun the whole earth. All his other counsels and thoughts, which refer to the future, shall be accomplished in their times.
Blessed is the nation - O how happy is that nation which has יהוה Jehovah for its אלהים Elohim ; the self-existent and eternal Lord for its covenant God; one who should unite himself to it by connections and ties the most powerful and endearing! The word אלהים Elohim, which we translate God, refers to that economy in which God is manifested in the flesh.
The people whom he hath chosen - The Jews, who were elected to be his heritage, whom he preserved as such for two thousand years, and whom he has reprobated because of their unbelief and rebellion, and elected the Gentiles in their place.
The Lord looketh from heaven - This and the following verse seem to refer to God's providence. He sees all that is done in the earth, and his eye is on all the children of men.
He fashioneth their hearts alike - He forms their hearts in unity; he has formed them alike; they are all the works of his hands: and he has formed them with the same powers, faculties, passions, etc.; body and spirit having the same essential properties in every human being.
There is no king saved by the multitude of a host - Even in the midst of the most powerful and numerous army, no king is in safety unless he have God's protection. A king is but a man, and may as easily lose his life as one of his common soldiers.
A mighty man is not delivered by much strength - There are times in which his might can be of no avail to him: and unless the mighty, the wise, the honorable, etc., have the protection of God, there is no time in which their might may not be turned into weakness, their wisdom into folly, and their dignity into disgrace.
A horse is a vain thing for safety - Even the horse, with all his fleetness, is no sure means of escape from danger: the lion or the tiger can overtake him or he may stumble, fall, and destroy his rider.
Behold, the eye of the Lord - Though all the above are unavailing, yet here is one thing that can never fail; "the eye of the Lord" - the watchful providence of the Most High, "is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy."
To deliver their soul from death - To watch over and protect them in all sudden dangers and emergencies, so that they shall not lose their Lives by any accident.
And to keep them alive in famine - Not only prevent sudden death by an instantaneous interposition of my power, but keep them from a lingering death, by extraordinary supplies granted them in an extraordinary manner; because I am all in all, and all everywhere.
Our soul waiteth - Our whole life is employed in this blessed work; we trust in nothing but him; neither in multitudes of armed men, nor in natural strength, nor in the fleetest animals, nor in any thing human: we trust in Him alone "who is our help and our shield."
For our heart shall rejoice in him - Here is the fruit of our confidence: our souls are always happy, because we have taken God for our portion.
Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us - We cannot abide in this state unless upheld by thee; and, as we disclaim all merit, we seek for a continuance of thy mercy, and this we cannot expect but in a continual dependence on thee. "Let thy mercy, O Lord be upon us, according as we hope in thee."

At first I did not believe that I could actually earn extra money (in USD, which is a plus) while blogging. One of my online buddies actually earn more than she thought she could just by doing what she likes, writing. Even my Ane was having second thoughts about this. He's just afraid I could get scammed by the things I see on the web. While here in the US, I even opened a bank account with my sister just so I could sign-up for Paypal (which is the only system used to get paid).
And then I came across Bloggerwave. I received an email just before we left for LA that one of my posts has been approved! See I just wrote something about an advertiser (actually visited their site before I submitted my post) which took me less than an hour to compose and soon I will receive the payment. Easy! :) Go on over to the Bloggerwave site and see how you can start earning yourself!

Snapshots from Italy: Lunch on an Adriatic Fishing Boat
Editor's note: Serious Eats correspondent Carey Jones, eating her way around Italy, will be reporting back from Rome, Bologna, Tuscany, and Puglia.
My mental image of a Southern Italian fishing boat looks something like this:
While sunny spring days do bring out solo pescatore, with or without their eight-foot rowboats, modern fishermen have taken to decidedly more seaworthy vessels. Like this one—Pasquale e Cristina, a commercial fishing boat that can brave the open waters for voyages as long as six months… or as short as a single morning, as was my Adriatic adventure.
Named for its owner's two children, both of whom joined us for the trip, Pasquale e Cristina is a mid-sized boat typical of Puglian fishing vessels. Its nets haul in whiting and mackerel, anchovies and sardines, tiny shrimp-like gamberetti and strange, vicious monkfish—as well as squid, octopi, cuttlefish, and any number of other more-or-less recognizable sea creatures, all laid out for our inspection. And later, consumption.
Shielded from the sea breeze, I soon noticed the smell around this incredible display— salty, humid, a bit stale, but hardly fishy at all. The captain nodded. "Fish only smells fishy with time," he explained. "Fish this fresh never smells like fish." But we didn't need to sniff the air to see that these creatures were pulled straight from the sea. Just hours out of the water, the eel still wriggled and the unruly octopi squirmed their way out of overflowing tubs. Even the quiet mackerel, with their sharp teeth and glinting eyes, seemed to stare menacingly back at me.
And fish this fresh, explained our translator and de facto tour guide Mike, hardly needed to be cooked. He plunged a hand into the bucket of gamberetti—tiny shrimp no more than an inch in length—and tossed a few into his mouth. Shells, eyes, antennae, and all. "This is the world's greatest snack. We'd eat them by the handful when I was a kid." He tucked a stray antenna back between his lips. "Better than popcorn. Better than potato chips."
He shook the bucket at me. I plucked a gamberetto from the pile and carefully bit down, with a sharp crack. And though the legs scratched my tongue and the feelers poked out, another firm crunch released the tender flesh inside. It was nothing like I'd expected. Incredibly sweet and just a touch salty, each audible chew unleashing more flavor, the gamberetti were fresher and brighter than any shrimp I'd ever eaten. I chewed carefully and swallowed with a happy sigh.
Mike watched me intently. "Any good?" I grinned and popped three more in my mouth. "Incredible."
At his urging, I tried the anchovies raw, too, but found these less pleasant—bitter and almost metallic, with an unpleasant aftertaste. For these, and for everything else, I would have to wait for lunch. We wandered upstairs to the sundeck, uncorked the Puglia-made Fiano Greco, and let the biting salt air stoke our appetites. For a seafood feast like this, we'd need every bit of hunger we could muster.
First came the anchovies, or alici, greatly improved by a quick soak in vinegar and a marinade of garlic, parsley, and olive oil.
Then the gamberetti, only made better by a quick pan-fry in olive oil and parsley.
Next came short-cut spaghetti in a fish consommé. Subtle and sweet, the broth added enormous flavor to the pasta, which was cooked separately to keep its starch from clouding the consommé. This was served alongside the first zuppa di pesce, with larger shrimp, mackerel, and cherry tomatoes.
Next up was a rich, garlic-y risotto, with langoustines crawling their way out. However creamy the rice, I knew, there was no cream in the dish itself; per Italian tradition, fish never touches dairy.
Then came another hearty tomato stew, but this time with monkfish, baby clams, mussels, and pesce sciabola, an eel-like scabbardfish.
Fresh sardines were drizzled in olive oil and charred on the grill upstairs...
While the other small fish, anchovies and whiting, were given a quick fry, leaving their skins crunchy and flaky flesh steaming hot and tender.
Baby squid and cuttlefish were given the same treatment, crisping up beautifully in the olive oil.
And just when I couldn't imagine eating another bite, out came curling tentacles of deep purple octopus, hot from the grill and just slightly charred. Smoky and dark, not chewy in the least, it stood up beautifully to a spicy, peppery olive oil that was all the garnish it needed.
With seafood like this, as so often in cooking, the key to a perfect meal is simplicity. Many of these dishes used little more than olive oil, flour and garlic; some didn't even need that. It's nearly impossible to improve upon the fresh, bright flavors of fish pulled straight from the sea. And aboard the Pasquale e Cristina, these wise fishermen didn't need to try.

Tama IP52KCCPM 5 Piece Imperialstar Drum Kit Candy Apple Mist w/Cymbals
Tama Imperialstar 5-pc complete drum set Candy Apple Mist
Imperialstar is the smartest and most economical way to purchase a drum set. Complete with Menial cymbals, Stagemaster hardware and Iron Cobra 200 kick pedal. Everything you need to play. At Midlothian Music we set-up and tune every drum set for local pickup.
Imperialstar drums shells are 7.5 millimeter-thick and made using 8 plies of 100% Poplar. Poplar has been a choice wood used in building drum shells for over 50 years and offers full, warm tone and medium attack.
Some drum makers only affix their wraps by taping the finishing sheet to the shell at "selected contact points." All of Tama's wrapped finishes are 100% glued to eliminate warping, buzzing, or lifting. This method is more expensive and more labor intensive, but allows the shell to resonate, fully and consistently.
Tama Drums has partnered with Meinl Cymbals to be able to include quality cymbals in the Imperialstar drum sets. Meinl's HCS cymbals are great sounding, genuine brass cymbals and are the ideal counterpart to Imperialstar's powerful tone.

Earlier this week, Pakistani authorities freed a leading pro-Taliban militant who reportedly raised an army of thousands to oppose the US-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001. Observers say Maulana Sufi Muhammad's release from prison heralds a new era of negotiation between militant groups and the new government in Islamabad.
Following the release, a ruling party official in the new Pakistani government said that envoys were engaged in talks with the Mahsud tribe in South Waziristan, in an apparent bid to secure a peace deal, reports the Associated Press.
The tribe includes Baitullah Mehsud, Pakistan's top Taliban leader who is accused of ties to al-Qaida.
Mehsud is wanted for a string of suicide attacks in Pakistan. The previous government has accused him of [former Prime Minister Benazir] Bhutto's assassination in December. Mehsud has reportedly denied involvement and Bhutto's party has not repeated the assertion.
On Monday, the Pakistani daily Dawn reports that Sufi Muhammad, leader of the guerrilla group Tehrik Nifaz Shariat-i-Muhammadi (TNSM), or the Movement to Enforce Islamic Laws, was released Monday after six years in detention. His release came after a six-point agreement between TNSM and the government.
He was released ... following an agreement with leaders of the banned organisation who denounced militancy and condemned the elements involved in attacks on state institutions, police and other law-enforcement agencies....
"The organisation (TNSM) respects the government of Pakistan and state institutions so that peace and the writ of the state is restored in Malakand region," said the agreement signed at the Chief Minister's House....
Under the agreement the TNSM pledged to continue its struggle for the enforcement of Shariat by peaceful means.
Sufi Muhammad rose to prominence in the mid 90s during Benazir Bhutto's regime, Asia Times Online writes. His group agitated for a strict interpretation of Islamic law and eventually forced Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to declare Islamic laws for the picturesque Swat Valley in northern Pakistan.
After September 11, 2001, Sufi gathered approximately 10,000 untrained armed men to fight against the US invasion of Afghanistan, despite Taliban leader Mullah Omar's opposition. Most of them were either killed or arrested by the Americans or kidnapped by local warlords for ransom. Sufi managed to escape unhurt from Afghanistan, only to be arrested at the border and jailed in Pakistan.
In his absence, the TNSM regrouped under Maulana Muhammad Alam and was allowed to operate with the tacit consent of the ISI [the Pakistani Intelligence Agency]. But Sufi's son-in-law Mullah Fazlullah, who had become radicalized after meeting al-Qaeda deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri, wanted to take the group in a different direction.
Fazlullah remains at large, running his own renegade version of TNSM that is aligned to Al Qaeda and Pakistani Taliban leader Baitullah Mehsud. He has established his own popular radio station, dubbed "Mullah radio," which delivers fiery antigovernment speeches, and he has ignored pleas from the ISI and Sufi Muhammad to moderate his tone. While he insists that Sufi Muhammad's release will not affect the Swat Valley insurgency, it is unclear what relationship his section of TNSM will have to Sufi Muhammad's.
This is one of the many reasons that Sufi Muhammad's release worries American officials. CNN reports.
...[B]ecause of his high profile, [a former State Department official] said, his release is a significant development that is sure not to sit well with the United States – a key ally that funnels billions of dollars to Pakistan to fight terrorists along the Afghan border.
Washington would prefer to pursue a more hard-line policy against the insurgents, The New York Times says, by increasing American military incursions along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border – something Islamabad is keen to avoid in order to ensure the success of negotiations and maintain the popularity of its young government.
American commanders in Afghanistan have in recent months urged a widening of the war that could include American attacks on indigenous Pakistani militants in the tribal areas inside Pakistan, according to United States officials.
The requests have been rebuffed for now, the officials said, after deliberations in Washington among senior Bush administration officials who fear that attacking Pakistani radicals may anger Pakistan's new government, which is negotiating with the militants, and destabilize an already fragile security situation.
The New York Times report continues,
A few weeks after Ms. Bhutto's assassination in December, two senior American intelligence officials reached a quiet understanding with Mr. Musharraf to intensify secret strikes against suspected terrorists by Predator aircraft launched in Pakistan.
American officials have expressed alarm that the leaders of Pakistan's new coalition government, Asif Ali Zardari of the Pakistan Peoples Party and Nawaz Sharif of the Pakistan Muslim League (N), are negotiating with militants believed to be responsible for an increasing number of suicide attacks against the security forces and political figures.
The new Pakistani government's resistance to US military operations may be sign of a more independent stance than Musharraf's previous dealings with the Americans indicated. The Guardian suggests that Islamabad's new approach is also causing strategic differences between the US and Britain, close allies in the "War on Terror."
David Miliband [the British Foreign Secretary], making a get-to-know-you visit [to Pakistan] on Monday, gave the new policy a cautious welcome. "We need a far greater degree of precision and detail when we are talking about reconciliation - reconciliation with whom, reconciliation in aid of what?" Britain's foreign secretary said.
Deals that created safe spaces and freedom of operation for terrorist groups, such as that struck by Musharraf in Waziristan last year, would not work, Miliband suggested. Deals that involved militants renouncing violence, as Sufi Muhammad reportedly has done, might be more attractive.
Not unusually, Britain is saying quietly and in a roundabout way what the Americans, or at least influential portions of the Bush administration, would prefer to state far more forcefully.
Regardless of Western perceptions, some Pakistani officials insist that Muhammad's release heralds a new era in regional politics. Reuters reports that an Al Qaeda-linked militant commander has declared a cease-fire. But the news agency also says:
...[T]he prospect of peace pacts with militants based in lawless tribal areas along the Afghan border has raised concern as critics say deals only give militants the opportunity to regroup and intensify their attacks in Afghanistan."

MONDAY, Oct. 22 (HealthDay News) -- Fycompa (perampanel) tablets have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat partial onset seizures in people aged 12 and older who have epilepsy.
Partial onset seizures are the most common seizures in people with epilepsy, a disorder commonly triggered by overactive nerve cells in the brain. Symptoms may include spasms, unusual behavior and loss of consciousness, the FDA said Monday in a news release.
The most common side effects of Fycompa reported during clinical trials included dizziness, sleepiness, irritability, falls, upper respiratory infections and weight gain.
Fycompa's label warns of the possibility of more serious side effects, including aggression, anger, anxiety, paranoia, euphoria and agitation.
The drug is produced by Eisai Inc., of Woodcliff Lake, N.J.

Thunderbird's future with a common base with Pale Moon?
Discussion of third-party/unofficial Firefox/Thunderbird/SeaMonkey builds.
6 posts • Page 1 of 1
Dear devs, Mozilla is abandoning legacy code (as you might have noticed ... and the Pale Moon guys have a project running to fork 2017-ish code for a common XUL plattform base called "UXP": https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=17634
Their first use of this platform is the "Basilisk" browser (http://basilisk-browser.org/features.shtml) but it has been made clear that the idea of UXP is to support multiple apps like Sunbird and whatnot. Thunderbird kinda comes to my mind there?
So how about it, why not bury the hatchet and work together sharing a common code base that is actively maintained by as many devs as possible? I'm using Thunderbird for ages an am fearful the missing Mozilla ressources will show sooner or later, esp. in ongoing "legacy" addon development.
Moving to Third Party Builds as this post is not about Thunderbird Features.
There was a discussion about this on the tb-planning group about 8-12 months ago. This was pre-Basilisk, but one of the main issues was the relatively small number of people working on Goanna, and I suspect that would still be an issue.
OK, I was not sure where to put it, the reationale was that preserving the xul code (Basilisk/UXP) is the base of all Thunderbird addon features :-o ... I hope interested peope will find it here.
Thanks a lot, I had no idea there was a Google group alongside this (or equialent) forums.
I connot really tell how much has changed with the introduction with UXP. To my understanding the Pale Moon dev wants to keep it alive by switching to this "One Unified XUL Platform to serve them all". The first implemenation is the Basilisk browser, Pale Moon will floow sooner or later (though keep the legacy UI and disable web extensions). Some unmaintainted products like Sunbird could be revived with the UXP base - though I personally doubt there's enough demand or dev power.
One the one hand, it would be a pity if the resources wouldn't be pooled, and Thunderbird doesn't need e10s and other innovations targeted at the Firefox browser. On the other hand, the nunmber of UXP devs could indeed be rather small. Last not least, my current participation in their forum indicates protective thinking by some members of their community - though this isn't my final assessent yet.
But probably it's too late anyway? I vaguely remember readding somewhere that the latest tb includes Rust technology, i.e. so much work has been done by now that switching to UXP isn't a realistic option anymore?
> But probably it's too late anyway? I vaguely remember readding somewhere that the latest tb includes Rust technology, i.e. > so much work has been done by now that switching to UXP isn't a realistic option anymore?
Parts of Gecko are now rewitten in Rust. Thunderbird and SeaMonkey picks this up but so far not a single Rust file in the comm-central repository. Can stay this way if you just ask me
im is dead as far as I know. Chat is incorporated into TB itself and enhanced.
There never was any hatchet to bury.
As you saw here - https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/t ... C582UiEAAJ what there is are guys who can code who don't rate that project at all. At a technical level, the Pale Moon project is just not that innovative or attractive a proposition to pursue further. It really is as simple as that.

VBA Excel Programming - Entry Level Lecture 1pm - 2pm (Get 50% off the ticket price, see Event Details below)from Eventbrite
* An entry level lecture based on the 'VBA Excel Programming - 5 Day focused course
6pm - 9pm' course (that's also available through EventBrite)
* For Alternative Location/Schedules:
CLICK the Contact the Host link below (Hosted By section) to make a request with the instructor.
* A 50% discount is available IF you register for the 'VBA Excel Programming - 5 Day focused course', the amount of this discount will be applied to the 5 Day focused course's ticket price (i.e. the 5 Day focused course's price will be reduced by the amount of this 50% discount or $90.70).
* Manhattan location, steps away from the Subway, close to midtown and downtown,
next to Starbucks and Chase.
* The demo explains VBA in Excel's context on the entry level, specifically: - Condensed and practical introduction of the programming language
- Why newcomers have trouble with the language
- What it takes to use VBA effectively to solve Excel data problems
- Illustrations through real-world code
* A demo to let you appreciate the gap between your Excel skills and VBA's power.
See how you can improve on speed when it comes to solving stubborn and awkward
Excel data problems on the basic level.
* VBA is what problem solvers use to destroy Excel data problems, VBA skills elude
a lot of professionals because of companies' overemphasis on nice looking apps,
high performance logic and software integration, very often the data that you need
to organize, analyze and extract doesn't exist in those integrated business apps, it's
in Excel and unless you're fluent in the VBA language you can spend literally all day
just to organize the Excel data. Companies have been training users on proprietary
apps, totally neglecting intrinsic analytical skills and data problem solving, the
situation is such that the typical Excel user can't solve simple Excel problems
(even the built-in functionalities are just general purpose solutions unfit for your data
* Theories in finance, economics, accounting, trading and hedging are taught, their
nuances are analyzed in school and business firms, but schools and graduate
programs completely overlook the all-important VBA language. Why is VBA
important? Excel is a universal data workhorse, manual operations through Excel's
user interface just aren't enough to solve problems involving thousands or tens of
thousands of records, especially where decision making or criteria setting is
necessary, in these scenarios VBA is the only way.
* Business software is continuously enhanced, even out-of-the-box solutions need
modifications, similarly Excel can display and process data in a versatile ways
but its capabilities are limited through its interface. Without VBA, the maximal
potential of your data analyses can't be achieved (reporting, analysis, modeling or
any other requirements where decision making is required). Imagine working with
an outdated application, imagine purchasing risk management software without
upgrading, the inner mechanisms need to be improved to accommodate market
practices and industry changes. Treating Excel as an out-of-the-box solution without
leveraging its native language is nearly 100% comparable to buying a mission-
critical solution without further enhancements.
* The underlying course (VBA Excel Programming - 5 Day focused course 7pm -
9pm) offers in-depth know-how, so much more than just dead-end coding
standards that are taught by others where basic syntax rules and VBA methods are
shown, but problem analysis as well as the solution development process aren't
considered at all. This is a big reason that VBA know-how seems elusive.
* Whether you're a Finance/Financial Engineering/MBA student, general Excel
user, Front Office developer, an analyst who needs to quickly pin down data
gaps, an accountant who must compute a high volume of transactions that can't
be done through the interface or a consultant who has tight deadlines and
increasing scripting requirements, you would benefit A LOT from using VBA
because that's where Excel's intrinsic power lies. (from )

Defrauding the Vote of American Citizens
On 12.15.11 01:55 PM posted by Hans von Spakovsky
Mayor John DeStefano of New Haven, Connecticut, wants the state legislature to allow the estimated 11,000 illegal aliens who live in New Haven to vote in municipal elections.
Approving that proposal would not only condone illegal behavior, but would be fundamentally unfair to citizens and legal immigrants who go through the lengthy process of obeying the law and becoming citizens. Heritage published a study in 2008 on the threat already posed by non-citizens who register and vote illegally.
It is also quite ironic coming from DeStefano, the same mayor whom the U.S. Supreme Court found engaged in blatant, undisguised racial discrimination against 20 white and Hispanic firefighters when he denied them promotions.
In Ricci v. DeStefano (2009), the Court concluded that the mayor had thrown out the results of firefighter promotion exams because these firefighters had outscored black firefighters on an exam that everyone agreed was fair and completely objective. The political machinations of DeStefano and his cohorts, as outlined by Justice Samuel Alito in his concurring opinion, describe a disgusting local political machine headed by a mayor who was willing to do anything to stay in office, even if it meant engaging in outright racial discrimination for crass political reasons.
As Alito described, city officials worked behind the scenes to sabotage the promotional examinations because they knew that, were the exams certified, the Mayor would incur the wrath of [Reverend Boise] Kimber and other influential leaders of New Havens African-American community. Kimber had in the past threatened race riots during the murder trial of a black man arrested for killing a white Yalie Christian Prince and was constantly raising the racism claim when anyone questioned his actions.
Yet DeStefano continued a long association with this race monger through seven terms, even testifying as a character witness when the reverend was convicted for stealing prepaid funeral expenses from an elderly woman and then lying about the matter under oath. Another individual with strong ties to the Mayors office called the qualified firefighters who wanted the test results certified Klansmen at a public hearing.
DeStefano has never apologized for his actions, his disreputable associations, or his expensive six-year losing battle (that New Haven taxpayers paid for) to keep qualified public servants from receiving the promotions they deserved for the basest of reasons. Now DeStefano wants to give individuals who break our laws and are here illegally the right to vote for him for mayor.
DeStefano dresses up his proposal in noble-sounding words, saying he wants to create a more engaged community. But given his prior behavior, it is hard to believe that this is anything other than an attempt to get another voting bloc in his corner, even if it means supporting illegal behavior. But then, whats that compared to discriminating on the basis of race to stay in office?

Get Your Game On, Girls!
Jun 22, 2011, 03:30 ET
Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Title IX
Women's Sports Foundation Founder Billie Jean King and President Laila Ali to Lead Year-long Salute to Landmark Legislation, Say More Work to be Done; Female Athletes Receive Almost $176 Million Less Annually in Athletic Scholarship Funds
EAST MEADOW, N.Y., June 22, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In celebration of the 40th year of Title IX, the Women's Sports Foundation is kicking off a year-long celebration of women in sports beginning June 23rd, 2011 – the 39th anniversary of the landmark legislation's signing. With the call to action, "Get Your Game On, Girls!," the Women's Sports Foundation is encouraging everyone to get in the game in support of girls' and women's sports, and to help keep the promise of Title IX alive.
Title IX, which ensures equal access to both men and women in federally-funded educational programs and activities, including sports, was enacted in 1972, when just one in 27 girls participated in high school varsity sports. As a result of Title IX, and the work of the Women's Sports Foundation, that number has increased to about two in five today. In women's collegiate programs the increase is more than 500 percent. However, while both men's and women's sports participation reached all-time highs in 2010, females have 1.3 million fewer high school and more than 60,000 fewer college sports participation opportunities than males.
"We've come a long way, but there is still work to be done," said Women's Sports Foundation founder Billie Jean King. "Title IX has been and continues to be the driving force behind providing women and girls more opportunities in sports, but as we enter Title IX's 40th year the gaps between boys and girls are still substantial. As a community, it's our duty to provide these opportunities for both girls and boys and everyone should have a chance to play."
The Women's Sports Foundation seeks to build awareness and appreciation for all that Title IX has done. The legislation is not only responsible for the surge in women's athletics, it is the reason our society has more women doctors, engineers, judges, political leaders and women in business than it did 40 years ago. Title IX also paved the way for stronger public policy for men and women with impairments, including athletes.
Throughout the course of the next 12 months, the Women's Sports Foundation is calling on women and men, mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers and anyone who cares about helping young people flourish to participate, advocate and support the Women's Sports Foundation's programs for girls and women.
"Athletics are an important educational opportunity," says Women's Sports Foundation President Laila Ali. "Sports and physical activity teach girls valuable life lessons on teamwork, endurance, self-reliance, leadership, confidence, physical fitness, and yes – fun. Missing out on those opportunities can mean missing out on key lessons you may not learn in a classroom."
The benefits of playing sports go far beyond the schoolyard or playing field. Research demonstrates girls who participate in sports and physical activity are more likely than inactive girls to have better emotional and physical health, get better grades, graduate from high school and go on to college. In fact, a study found that four of five executive businesswomen played sports growing up, attributing the lessons they learned on the playing field as a key to their success.
"You can help keep Title IX alive by advocating and educating others about the importance of this very important legislation," said Women Sports Foundation CEO Kathryn Olson. "And we want you to participate by making a commitment to yourself or a girl in your life to Get Your Game On with the Women's Sports Foundation on Facebook. You can also donate to help the Foundation provide opportunities for more girls to become physically active."
The Women's Sports Foundation will mark Title IX's 40th anniversary year with a series of events and programs, including:
- WomensSportsFoundation.org – A bold, newly redesigned digital community for people who care about girls' and women's sports, health and fitness. The web site will showcase the "voices" of the world's top female athletes, offer advocacy tools and resources, provide access to grants and education, and inspire WSF supporters through a powerful combination of Sports, Health and Education (SHE).
- GoGirlGo! – This signature program of the Women's Sports Foundation combines an award-winning curriculum with sports and physical activity programming for girls who are sedentary or not participating in regular activity. The GoGirlGo! program, designed for girls 5 to 18, has reached over 1 million girls in underserved communities.
- Travel & Training Fund – The Women's Sports Foundation's Travel & Training Fund provides direct financial assistance to aspiring female athletes for coaching, specialized training, equipment, attire and/or travel. Grants are awarded to individual and team athletes and are based, in part, on need.
- 32nd Annual Salute to Women in Sports – This star-studded annual gala honors the accomplishments of athletes and supporters who have opened doors for girls and women competing in athletics at all levels. This year's gala will be held on October 19 at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.
- Title IX at 40: Progress and Promise – Equity for All – This conference, taking place in May 2012, will be hosted by the Women's Sports Foundation and University of Michigan through their mutual partnership, The Sport, Health and Activity Research and Policy Center for Women and Girls (SHARP).
Details on these and other upcoming events in this 40th year of Title IX can be found as they are announced on www.WomensSportsFoundation.org. To get involved, visit facebook.com/WomensSportsFoundation.

Long Island City Hyundai took the erection analogy of prolonged euphoria to its climax before coming out with the real reason for this man's visit to the ER. A deal on a new car is an arousing proposition, but is it really orgasmic?
Apparently yes. Yes it is.

Ambassador to Afghanistan Eikenberry says "No to escalation." Senior Civilian Official Matthew Hoh says "I quit" to US policy in Afghanistan. The California Democratic Party says "US Out of Afghanistan." Our allies UFPJ, IVAW, Courage to Resist, and others say "No to escalation, and bring the troops home." Congresswoman Barbara Lee, in a press conference at the Oakland Federal Building, says "Let's cut off funding another escalation of war in Afghanistan."
Dear CODEPINKer, You've taken action on Afghanistan. You've signed petitions, sent emails, gone to town halls of your local congressperson, held signs at rallies and vigils, called and/or visited members of Congress. You've probably already seen some or most of the documentary "Rethink Afghanistan," or maybe you've been reading books on Afghanistan in our Pink Pages Book Club. You may know someone who has been deployed to Afghanistan. You may even have been to Afghanistan yourself!
That's why we're contacting you: because we know you not only care about the horrific tragedy in Afghanistan, but because you take action. We're asking you to take these three effective actions today:
Call President Obama at 202-456-1111 and so NO to Surge! or Email the White House directly
Call your Rep and ask them to support Congresswoman Lee's bill HR 3699 opposing a troop surge
Let us know how your call went here

Springdale Moves Forward With Trail Plan
City Council Approves Eminent Domain
The City of Springdale will move forward with its plans to build the Razorback Greenway Trail.
A unanimous vote Tuesday night approved to invoke eminent domain on 68 parcels, which will allow the city to build the trail through those specific areas.
The trail, which runs south from Bentonville to Fayetteville, will be connected northbound at the Springdale-Lowell border, and southbound at the Fayetteville border.
"When we first started out the project there was a lot of concern about the trail itself," said Patsy Christie, the city's director of planning and community development. "But to get it developed, to get the plans approved through the Highway Department to the point where we can negotiate with property owners, and we've really gotten a really good response."
According to the measure, ownership of the land will not change, but landowners will receive payments according to fair market value.

Pub grub with ambience
At Turner's Yard in Pembroke, pub grub gets a chef's makeover with farm-fresh ingredients, and retains a casual vibe in spite of its celebrity ownership.
The restaurant is the collaboration of Shawn Thornton of the Bruins, former Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield, Dropkick Murphys front man Ken Casey, and HGTV host Taniya Nayak.
Executive chef Eric Bogardus, who has cooked alongside the likes of Lydia Shire, brings the focus to comfort food with upscale twists and precise execution.
"I worked in restaurants with fine dining, but growing up in the Midwest, it's the food you want to eat every day, things that fill you up,'' said Bogardus, also executive chef at Petit Robert Central in Downtown Crossing in Boston.
The onion soup ($7) fits that bill, a warming starter in the cold of winter. The dark beef broth gave the soup rich body, and the melted Swiss and Munster added a subtle tang.
I was surprised to count the spinach salad ($8) among my favorites. The local cranberries make it sweet along with addictive, crunchy candied walnuts. The blue cheese was nicely pungent without being funky, and held up well to the assertive flavor of the spinach.
The mixed grill pizza ($14) was a special of the night, and arrived on an upside-down sheet pan lined with parchment, set on a rack. The toppings of shaved steak, chorizo, blue cheese, and Gouda were peppery and hearty, their richness offset with wilted spinach. The crust was delightfully thin and crispy, and the rectangular pie was so large it became the next day's lunch.
Steak tips ($19) were prepared with a chimichurri rub and served with hand-cut frites. The sirloin pieces were cooked to a perfect, juicy medium-rare, but the seasoning was somewhat plain. While quality beef doesn't need much enhancement, the advertised chimichurri simply wasn't detectable.
The chicken schnitzel sandwich ($12) — a breaded chicken breast with caper butter, Swiss, and an over-easy egg on a roll, with fries — is fun to eat. I approached it as an open-faced sandwich with a fork and knife, rather than bite into it with the runny yolk. The chicken breast was moist and got extra richness from the egg, and the capers gave the sandwich a briny contrast.
Dessert offerings included local cheeses with fig jam, and slices of coconut cream pie or chocolate cream pie (all $8). My table opted for doughnut bites ($7) with a choice of dipping sauces: chocolate ganache, salted caramel, or banana syrup.
The doughnut holes arrived warm and coated in cinnamon sugar, but the coating prevented any salted caramel from sticking — the sauce dripped right off and took some sugar with it. Split them and spoon over the salty-sweet caramel. The doughnuts were all right, but not great, and a little on the dense side.
Turner's Yard also offers brunch on the weekends, and pizza hour for the late-night crowd at the bar. Only pizza is served from 11 p.m. to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, and two or three special pizzas are available in addition to those on the menu, Bogardus said.
But don't get too attached to the menu, because change is coming. "Being in a small town, you try to pay attention to every comment,'' Bogardus said. "I want to change things to make people happy.''
Regulars want to see the menu mixed up once in a while, and more appetizers at the bar, he said. Some planned dishes include potato skins filled with duck confit, a fresh quahog chowder, and white corn grits with shrimp sautéed in brown butter.
Turner's Yard occasionally has live music, and recently a comedy show. The owners wanted residents south of Boston to have a place for dining and entertainment without the hassle of driving into Boston, said Nayak, of Milton, who has been working on pilots "Billion Dollar Block'' and "Renovation: Impossible.''
Her inspiration for the design of Turner's Yard was a "farm-to-table look'' with industrial features. "With Turner's Yard being close to the water, I put the wood on the walls to give it more richness, but also a nod to a nautical vibe,'' Nayak said.
She stained the wood a darker espresso shade alongside cream-colored planks. A large bar sits at the center of the restaurant, and customers can catch a game on 10 flat-screen televisions.
On a recent Thursday night the space was half-full. Our server was friendly, and food came quickly, but we never felt rushed.
Bogardus also plans to collaborate with area farmers markets once the weather warms up. "You start to lose a lot of the produce until summer comes,'' he said. "But there's always seafood to get you through the winter.''
