South Korean, "Gangnam Style" sensation PSY , is apologizing for a 2004 performance in which he said American soldiers should be killed "slowly and painfully." The apology comes days before he is scheduled to perform at a holiday concert that will be attended by President Obama and his family.
In a statement issued by a representative PSY says that he will "forever be sorry for any pain I have caused" by what he rapped at a Seoul concert that took place during a protest against the Iraq war.
As part of a performance, PSY rhymed in Korean:
Kill those f**king Yankees who have been torturing Iraqi captives
Kill those f**king Yankees who ordered them to torture
Kill their daughters, mothers, daughters-in-law, and fathers
Kill them all slowly and painfully
The concert was held on the heels of the decapitation of a Korean missionary by Islamic militants in Iraq, which fueled anti-U.S. military sentiment in South Korea. It followed an earlier incident in which an American military vehicle struck and killed two 13-year-old Korean girls. The soldiers involved in the incident were later acquitted of negligent homicide. After that incident, at a concert to protest U.S. military policy in South Korea, PSY reportedly smashed a model of a U.S. tank with a mic stand.
PSY is scheduled to perform at the National Building Museum on Sunday at a taping of the annual Christmas in Washington show produced by TNT. A White House official confirmed to ABC News that the Obama family will attend the taping, as is custom. The annual charity function benefits the National Children's Medical Center and the entertainment is not chosen by the White House. It will be broadcast on TNT December 21.
Here's the apology PSY released, in full:
"As a proud South Korean who was educated in the United States and lived there for a very significant part of my life, I understand the sacrifices American servicemen and women have made to protect freedom and democracy in my country and around the world."
"The song in question -- from eight years ago -- was part of a deeply emotional reaction to the war in Iraq and the killing of two Korean schoolgirls that was part of the overall antiwar sentiment shared by others around the world at that time. While I'm grateful for the freedom to express one's self I've learned there are limits to what language is appropriate and I'm deeply sorry for how these lyrics could be interpreted. I will forever be sorry for any pain I have caused anyone by those words."
"I have been honored to perform in front of American soldiers in recent months -- including an appearance on the Jay Leno show specifically for them -- and I hope they and all Americans can accept my apology. While it's important we express our opinions, I deeply regret the inflammatory and inappropriate language I used to do so. In my music I try to give people a release, a reason to smile. I have learned that though music, our universal language we can all come together as a culture of humanity and I hope that you will accept my apology."

Veranda Blend™ Portion Packs
Product Info
A light-bodied, lighter-roasted coffee blend with nuances of soft cocoa and lightly toasted nuts.
Tasting Notes Mellow & Soft
Enjoy this with: An after-dinner dessert and a balcony view.
Product Details
Veranda Blend™ Portion Packs
A mellow, approachable blend of specially chosen Latin American beans, with delicate nuances of soft, cocoa and lightly toasted nuts. Flavorful without being overly bold, this coffee brews a delightful cup that's perfect for welcoming friends or greeting a new day.
With 18 individual 2.5-oz portion packs per box, you can look forward to enjoying this wonderful ground coffee for days to come.
How to Brew
Each convenient portion pack is pre-measured to brew one pot of coffee, approximately 50-64 fl oz depending on the desired strength. One portion pack is filled with 2.5 oz of ground coffee. There are 18 portion packs per box.
The Starbucks Roast
Each coffee requires slightly different amounts of time and temperature during the roasting process to create a cup at its peak of aroma, acidity, body and flavor. We classify our coffees in three roast profiles so you can easily find your desired flavor and intensity.
- Blonde: Blonde-roasted coffees have a shorter roast time, lighter body and mellow flavors.
- Medium: Medium-roasted coffees are balanced with smooth and rich flavors.
- Dark: Dark-roasted coffees feature a fuller body and robust, bold flavors.
A Better Cup
We're committed to ethically sourcing and roasting the highest-quality arabica coffee in the world. When we buy coffee this way, it fosters a better future for farmers, and a more stable climate for the planet. It also helps create a long-term supply of the high-quality beans we've been carefully blending, roasting and packing fresh for more than 40 years.

Canadian video game awards pit Davids against Goliaths
As the Canadian video game industry gets set to celebrate its best work of 2011, MSN looks at how this country has shaped game development around the world, and why independent Canadian studios may soon take over.
This year's third annual Canadian Video Game Awards, taking place in Vancouver on Apr. 21, have all the makings of David versus Goliath. Or, more accurately, it's David versus several Goliaths as tiny independent studio Capybara Games takes on some of the world's biggest multinational publishers for the title of Game of the Year.
Toronto-based Capybara's quirky iPad game Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP is up against Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Electronic Arts' FIFA 12 and Fight Night Champion, and Eidos' Deux Ex: Human Revolution, all of which are multimillion-selling console titles.
"I would be really arrogant to think we could win that," says Kris Piotrowski, Capybara's co-founder and creative director. "It would be a huge shocker."
The top award is voted on by fans, which puts Sword & Sworcery at a disadvantage, Piotrowski says. While the game has been a hit on the iPad, selling more than 350,000 copies, it's nowhere near as well known or popular as the big franchises it's competing against.
"It really is an honour just being nominated."
Piotrowski and his friend Nathan Vella started Capybara in 2003 and have grown the studio to 22 employees. Despite its small size, the studio has racked up an impressive 11 nominations this year.
Sword & Sworcery, an adventure game that puts players in the shoes of a character known as the Scythian as he searches for a book called the Megatome, leads all titles with nine nods. Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes, a downloadable strategy game for several platforms, garnered Capybara a further two.
- New Surface makes the grade for students
- Hot gadgets for your back-to-school kids
- HTC to make One M8 -- Windows edition
- How to make passwords stronger
- Use social media to boost your career prospects
- Futuristic Tim Hortons store concept unveiled
- Microsoft to cut 18,000 jobs over the next year
- Texting while driving common among Ont. teens
- Next-generation codes move past grocery stores
The other 11 award categories - including audio, writing, graphics and technical design - are voted on by a panel of judges (disclosure: the author of this story is among them).
Besides the Game of the Year award, the big publishers also dominate the other categories. With Ubisoft based in France, Electronic Arts in the United States and Eidos in the United Kingdom, that might make it easy to wonder just how Canadian the awards are.
Victor Lucas, host of The Electric Playground television show and one of the event's organizers, says it doesn't matter where the big companies are based because their best work is being done in Canada.
"The economic headquarters for these companies may exist in other countries, but what we celebrate is the actual development that's going on," he says. "It's really fascinating that Ubisoft's best work is out of Montreal, so far. EA's biggest studio is EA Canada and they've produced some of the most pivotal game entertainment in the industry's history."
With more than 16,000 employees, Canada's video game industry is the third largest in the world, behind only Japan and the United States. Some of the biggest-selling game franchises in the world, including FIFA, Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell and Mass Effect are designed primarily in Canada.
Moreover, the production system currently being used by big companies around the world began in Canada back in 1991, Lucas says, when California's Electronic Arts acquired Burnaby, B.C.-based Distinctive Software and rechristened it EA Canada.
"To a large extent, the studio model that the industry has adopted has its roots at EA Canada," he says. "It's still a surprise to many players and consumers. They're surprised by how much stuff gets made here. There's a lack of understanding and appreciation."
For their part, the big publishers say multinational operations are part of the reality of the global video game market. Canadian developers often need the deep pockets of publishers to get their games the biggest distribution and marketing possible.
"If you're going to be successful on a global stage, you really need to be working at a global level," says EA Canada spokesperson Colin McRae. "While there are opportunities for smaller Canadian companies to self publish, to do that in the context of big intellectual properties and entertainment franchises, that can obviously be a challenge."
Piotrowski says that while it used to be inevitable for independent Canadian studios to get gobbled up by bigger publishers as a way of expanding their reach, that's not necessarily the case anymore. Indie companies such as Capybara and fellow nominees Drinkbox Studios, Alien Trap Games and Hothead Games now have a host of online distribution options with which to reach audiences.
"If you're already working with Apple or Sony or Xbox Live or Steam, there is absolutely nothing a publisher can do for you," he says. "Getting acquired by some larger publisher wouldn't help us reach a larger audience at all. I actually think it would hurt us."
The shift toward online distribution could lead to future iterations of the Canadian Video Game Awards becoming even more Canadian, or at least more cases of David versus Goliath, as indie developers are able to stand toe to toe with big publishers.
"The magic of game development is now available to anyone with ambition and an internet connection," Lucas says. "It democratizes the way cool content is going to be created and consumed."

12 April 2010
Reed at Capials Kremlin on Mike Knuble:
You know that time you woke up on Christmas morning and you got exactly what you wanted and needed? Mike Knuble is that present for the Capitals.
He's been exactly what the Capitals needed to go to the next level: grit, leadership and those oh-so-pretty garbage goals. He's having one of his best seasons statistically and he's a big part of why the Capitals are enjoying their best season in club history.
Knuble is beloved by fans and if I were George McPhee, I'd make it so he retires in Capitals' red. Ovechkin might steal the spotlight, but make no mistake, Knuble is one of the many unspoken engines driving this team.
Sha Sha at The Hockey Bay Blog on Steve Downie:
As much as I'd hate to admit this, Steve Downie has been great with the Lightning this year. It is hard to argue with 22 goals and 24 assists which can be given to his credit for stepping up his game to play with Steven Stamkos and Martin St. Louis. I am still reserved to say if this will be more than a one year occurrence, but if he continues to improve on his skill game as opposed to questionable style of play that he has a reputation for, he will be good for the Lightning in the future.
He's an RFA at the end of this season, and based on his play this year, will be given a new contract by the Lightning.
Jenna at Hipchecks on Scottie Upshall
At first I hated Scottie Upshall but only because he took Carcillo away from Phoenix. Rationally I knew Scottie was a good player, as the Flyers are my other team, but I just had a hard time accepting him. The end of last season in Phoenix was a blur (for me) but this season Scottie has ingrained himself in the Coyotes. He was one of our better players and we mourned the loss of him after his injury, especially Lombo (total bromance/wonder twin thing going on there). We are all looking forward to his return next season as he really seemed to find a place in Phoenix. Slowly, more and more Upshall jerseys are appearing at games, even in his absence.
A29 at the Four Habs Fans on Glen Metropolit
Not only is he named after our favourite mode of transportation, but he can score power-play goals, too! He filled that perennial hole on the Habs' roster called "3rd line centre" really well early on, but his play deteriorated as the season went on and was no more than a fourth line spare/PP specialist until he got hurt for the year. Habs will likely go younger and cheaper next year. Just like Tiger.
The Royal Half on Randy Jones
All fans needs their whipping boy on defense. And for the 2009-2010 Los Angeles Kings.. Randy Jones is the man for the job. The problem with Jones is that he's actually not THAT bad... but when he screws up... he screws up royally and everyone in the building notices. For a while there, Jones was in and out of the lineup, but as the Kings head into the playoffs (I know, it still sounds weird for me to even say it!) Coach Terry Murray will be using Jones as the 6th D'man, also giving him a good amount of time on the 2nd Power Play unit. The Kings got Jones for free, and with a good surplus of young puck-moving defensemen in their minor league system... if Jones walks away at the end of this season (he's a UFA)... I don't think any Kings fan will miss him one bit.
- - - - - - -
Which leaves us with Joffrey Lupul, Steve Eminger, and Andrew Alberts. Let me just get Eminger and Alberts out of the way first - they're never going to last on a team for two consecutive seasons. They're just not good enough and they don't bring enough intangibles that would make up for their lack of skill and presence. If they want to be successful and make some serious loot they should really look into the KHL.
Lupul, despite his lazy attitude, has a ton of skill. I think people in Anaheim were excited to get him back, especially seeing as he came with two first rounders and Luca Sbisa. His injury was unfortunate but if he's healthy he's not going to Hartnell you, he's going to get those points. Plus those cat like eyes, I mean come on - fo-ged-aboud-id. He'll be a key part of the Ducks rebuilding offense next season.

DULUTH, MN (KDAL) - Duluth Police on Monday were called to 4th Street and Lake Avenue for a vehicle prowl that was in progress. When they arrived, they found 35 year old Daniel Ojanen standing next to a vehicle with a broken passenger window, eating potato chips and drinking beer that he stole from the vehicle. Ojanen admitted he had broken one window and attempted to break two others using a rock. Officers also found methamphetamine and a syringe on Ojanen. The suspect has eight other convictions for a variety of offenses since 1996.

Trick Percussion Pro 1 V Single Bass Drum Pedal
The Pro 1 – V is manufactured from aerospace materials (titanium, aluminum, stainless and hardened steel) and machined on the latest state of the art CNC equipment. When Trick began designing the Pro 1–V, they wanted to build a pedal unlike anything ever made, with never before seen features that are truly useful to today's drummers. The Trick Pro 1 – V takes the worry out of whether or not you'll make it through the show, and is so finely adjustable that it will satisfy every drummer's individual needs regardless of their playing level or style.
Footboard – The Pro 1–V footboard is machined from solid billet aluminum. The Pro 1 – V footboard is fracture tested to 12,000 pounds per square inch. The footboard is attached to the heel plate using a pressed-fit, hardened, solid steel pin. Attaching the two components this way has proven much more reliable than a hinge and uses fewer moving parts that could breakdown over time.
Base Plate – The Pro 1 – V base plate is machined from solid billet aluminum, this provides the Pro 1 – V with an ultra sturdy platform on which everything else is built. Say goodbye to thin stamped-metal base plates. Solid is better!
Compression Spring – The Pro 1 – V utilizes an internally housed compression spring. Compression springs are vastly superior to expansion springs used in many of today's pedals, because compression springs have the ability to "cycle" faster and utilize energy more efficiently. With the Pro 1 – V's compression spring and profiled cam follower, another industry first, you will feel less spring tension build-up as the beater approaches the drum head.This is one of the reasons why the Pro 1 – V feels smoother, faster and more responsive then any other pedal ever made. The Pro 1 – V's spring tension is adjustable while you're playing (if need be), simply turn the spring tension dial conveniently located on the main housing.
Independent Split-Cam System – Trick's fully independent split cam system let's the player infinitely and independently adjust the beater from the drive cam angle with a 360° range of smooth yet solid settings. This system also allows for immediate conversion of the Pro 1 – V into a cocktail kit pedal or a triggering pedal. Because of the split-cam systems design, the player can now change the attitude and attack of the pedal in seconds.
Multi-Position Stroke Adjustment Cluster – This three position cluster is an integral part of the sophisticated geometry at work on the Pro 1 – V. It gives the player separate adjustments to the footboard angel, as well as, the pedal's action, throw and overall feel.

Get Detective: Meet the Elusive, Intrepid P.I. Who Frees Chained Jewish Women
He's the expert who specializes in finding 'disappeared' husbands—men who leave their wives without Jewish divorces, or hope
I asked Gellis why men withhold gets from their wives. Her voice did the equivalent of a shrug. "Different reasons. Jealousy. Revenge. We're always for the women—we're not called Yad L'Gever (man)—but I'm sure there's always a second side to every story."
Yad L'Isha employs a number of strategies for helping agunot. They work within the rabbinical courts, but also by introducing legislation to the Knesset. For example, Gellis explained, recently Yad L'Isha lobbied that after two sessions in court, a recalcitrant husband can be put in jail if the court finds the husband likely to flee or refuse. Another thing Yad L'Isha is pushing for would stymie a common problem: Men sometimes use the power they have to refuse a get to squeeze out a better deal regarding custody of the children or property during divorce proceedings. Yad L'Isha's director, Bat-Sheva Sherman-Shani, is lobbying Knesset to separate custody and property negotiations from the question of the get.
On the American front, a nonprofit called the Organization for the Resolution of Agunot, or ORA, "assists divorcing couples in resolving contested Jewish divorces in a timely fashion and in accordance with the highest standards of Jewish law," according to its website. "Jewish marriage isn't like civil marriage," Jeremy Stern, ORA's executive director, told me. "A civil marriage is imposed by a third party, so it can also be dissolved by one, whereas a halakhic marriage is private; it can't be imposed or dissolved by a third party."
As far as handling a recalcitrant husband, Stern said their options are limited. "We try very hard to handle things amicably," Stern said. "We hear both sides, we follow the paper trail, we really try everything to persuade the recalcitrant party nicely. The majority of our cases are like this—a sort of informal mediation. If that fails, we go down the messier route: We apply communal pressure, familial pressure, we ask his rabbi to talk to him, to kick him out of his shul. Sometimes we will have a peaceful protest outside his work. We want him to feel that the community he lives in will not tolerate this behavior."
Enter Sholem Gaiman, Get Detective. Sholem Gaiman is not his real name. Because of the undercover nature of his work, he insisted that I not reveal his real name or other identifying details and markers, such as the location where we met. Gaiman was paranoid that his latest target—the man he was tracking at an agunah's bidding to corner into giving a get—might read this article, figure out that he had been discovered, and run again. His paranoia was infectious.
In Israel, one of the most prominent spokespersons for agunot is Rachel Levmore, a Rabbinical Court advocate who works for the nonprofit Agunah and Get-Refusal Prevention Project of Young Israel, as well as the Jewish Agency. Levmore is one of the main authors of the prenuptial agreement used both in the United States and Israel, the Heskem L'kavod Hadadi or agreement for mutual respect, a "binding arbitration agreement," made public in 2000, and binding in a secular court of law. The prenup is designed to protect women from becoming agunot by stipulating that a recalcitrant husband must pay a monthly fee for his refusal.
Levmore worked with Gaiman for 10 years in the Rabbinical Courts of Israel and says that she knows him well. "He is uniquely qualified because he is a first-rate Torah scholar who is on a level with the highest dayanim," she told me by phone from Israel. "He also is a qualified mesader gittin—organizer of the procedure of divorce. If he catches a guy out in the middle of nowhere, he can take care of setting things up. In addition to this, he has other talents that make him particularly qualified to do this job: He is an intuitive psychologist. He can read people really well. He talks to them where they are at. He is also fearless. Recalcitrant husbands have pulled guns on him. He is not afraid of physical violence, but he doesn't use it himself," she added. "He has risked his life in order to save agunot."
Levmore, who is one of the few women licensed as a Rabbinical Court advocate, recalled the first time she met Gaiman. "It was the year 2000, within a couple of days of my starting there, when he knocked on my door. 'We need your help. Can you come to a meeting?' he asked. It was irrelevant to him that I was a woman, which was unusual in that setting. He judged me by my knowledge and skills. We worked together from then on, to seek creative solutions for individual cases."
She then told me a story about how she and Gaiman once wrested a get from an Israeli man who was convinced that he was the Messiah, and who was in jail for refusing to give his wife a divorce. "He steps into their reality," she said of Gaiman. In this case, Gaiman figured out that the man was refusing the divorce on the grounds that it was a blot on his record as Messiah. So, Gaiman conveyed to the man that he, Gaiman, "would investigate the Jewishness of his wife, and wouldn't that be a terrible blot on the Messiah's record—to have non-Jewish children!" Levmore recalled. "After years in prison without speaking to a soul, he agreed to give the get."
Recently, Aliza Gellis also started to work with Gaiman. "He's someone who is not scared to do what he believes. He has a very strong sense of justice," she said. "He knows he is working for a good cause. And some people like a matter of risk in their work. Adrenaline. Action. He likes that, too."
Levmore called Gaiman a matir agunot—one who frees wives who have been refused a get. She said she had heard of less than a handful of individuals who do this kind of work for a living. Like any private investigator, Gaiman's job is to track down missing persons. But unlike other P.I.s, his work only begins once he finds them. Gaiman's specialty, as Levmore put it, is in "helping the husband realize that he must give his wife a get."
By his own telling, Gaiman has chased men to Italy, New York, Brazil, Canada; sought gets in jails, in houses, in vans in southern towns; and chased men who had become women. The men he chases are hardly Nice Jewish Boys. His stories are peppered with arms dealers, members of the mafia, men engaged in sexual sordidness so ornery that shivers of disgust and delight percolated under my skin throughout their retelling.

I'm sure any words of encouragement would be appreciated.
David House, Manning's friend had his computer seized at Chicago's O'Hare last January, with no probable cause and they still have not returned it to him. He filed a lawsuit against the Federal Government on May 13, 2011, and the Government has 60 days to respond.
Here's a chat with David House that Jane Hamsher hosted on May 13, 2011. David answers many questions about Bradley's current conditions. All of the comments are exceptionally educational.
Last month dolphin corpses began washing up on the Gulf Coast in alarming numbers. Well, more dead dolphins continue to be found, bringing the total this year up to 114 — 100 more than the average number of dead dolphins that washed ashore during the first three months of any year between 2002 and 2007. So, naturally, there are quite a few people interested in what might cause such dramatic increases in marine mammal mortality. But Mississippi's WLOX reported recently that government testing on the animals has been slow to commence, and Reuters reported over the weekend that a gag order has been put into place forbidding wildlife biologists at the National Marine Fisheries Service to talk to the media about their findings.

A man accused of stealing a smart phone and taking self-portraits with the phone has turned himself into authorities.
The Cumberland County Sheriff's Office arrested 20-year-old Anthony Dubeos Graham of Spring Lake and charged him with felony breaking and entering, felony larceny and possession of stolen goods.
Authorities say Graham took the phone and other property on July 28 from a home in Spring Lake. The photos he took of himself shortly after committing the crime were automatically saved.
Graham surrendered to deputies Tuesday morning and was released under a $10,000 bond.
The second suspect accused of stealing the phone and taking self-portraits has not been arrested at this time.
Anyone who knows the second suspect is asked to call the Cumberland County Sheriff's Office at 910-323-1500.

Pleurisy is inflammation of the lining of the lungs and chest (the pleura) that leads to chest pain (usually sharp) when you take a breath or cough.
Alternative Names
Pleuritis; Pleuritic chest pain
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Pleurisy may develop when you have lung inflammation due to infections such as pneumonia or tuberculosis. It is often a sign of a viral infection of the lungs. This inflammation also causes the sharp chest pain of pleurisy.
It may also occur with:
- Asbestos-related disease
- Certain cancers
- Chest trauma
- Pulmonary embolus
- Rheumatic diseases
The main symptom of pleurisy is pain in the chest. This pain most likely occurs when you take a deep breath in or out, or cough. Some people feel the pain in the shoulder.
Deep breathing, coughing, and chest movement makes the pain worse.
Pleurisy can cause fluid to collect inside the chest cavity. This can make breathing difficult and may cause the following symptoms:
- Bluish skin color (cyanosis)
- Coughing
- Shortness of breath
- Rapid breathing (tachypnea)
Signs and tests
When you have pleurisy, the normally smooth lining of the lung (the pleura) become rough. They rub together with each breath, and may produce a rough, grating sound called a "friction rub." The health care professional can hear this sound with the stethoscope, or by placing an ear against the chest.
The health care provider may perform the following tests:
- Thoracentesis
- Ultrasound of the chest
- X-ray of the chest
The health care provider can remove fluid in the lungs by thoracentesis and check it for signs of infection.
Treatment depends on what is causing the pleurisy. Bacterial infections are treated with antibiotics. Some bacterial infections require a surgical procedure to drain all the infected fluid.
Viral infections normally run their course without medications. Patients often can control the pain of pleurisy with acetaminophen or anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen.
Expectations (prognosis)
Recovery depends on what is causing the pleurisy.
- Breathing difficulty
- Collapsed lung due to thoracentesis
- Complications from the original illness
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of pleurisy. If you have breathing difficulty or your skin turns blue, seek immediate medical care.
Early treatment of bacterial respiratory infections can prevent pleurisy.

Happy Halloween!
Written on October 31, 2011 at 1:08 pm , by Eleanor Langston
Need last-minute inspiration for a Halloween costume? A couple of weeks ago, my husband and I decided to throw a 90s-themed birthday party, which was SO much fun to see the different costumes. My inspiration for my costume was Cher from the movie Clueless. My husband's inspiration was Zack Morris from Saved by the Bell.
Since I'm a beauty editor, you better believe that I got really into the hair, makeup and nails from the 90s. I applied a squared-off French manicure set the day of the party, and I even had to go to work in them the following Monday. (I couldn't get them off!) For hair, Jessie James, a stylist at the Marie Robinson Salon in New York City, decided to blow-dry my hair with each layer cupping my face, instead of twirling layers away from my face, which is way more modern. For my makeup, Landy Dean contoured my face with opaque, matte brown tones and applied an eyeshadow called "Mysterious Plum," which he said that he has had in his kit since the 90s. We both ordered brick-like cell phones off of eBay, and I carried around shopping bags as accessories. I also had on a white velvet choker to spice up my outfit.
What are you going to be this Halloween? Hope you guys have a great time dressing up!

Review Train (Leica S2, Samsung EX1, EX1 vs LX3 bokeh, etc)
Time for another review round-up! We start with the most expensive camera mentioned in this round-up (and probably in most round-ups), the Leica S2, getting not one but two recent reviews! The first review comes from Le Monde de la Photo (computer-translated), and the next one comes from the Korean mega-site SLRClub (via Fotoactualidad). Unfortunately SLR Club publishes their reviews as images instead of text, so computer-translation cannot help us non-Korean readers figure the text out. But fear not, they have lots and lots of pictures and camera body pictures!
Speaking of Korea, the Samsung EX1/TL500 takes on the Panasonic LX3 in a Bokeh comparison series at Serious Compacts. The full-size samples from this shootout are available as .zip downloads if you want to pixel-peep them as well.
Speaking of which, the Samsung EX1/TL500 action continues with a photographer-priority straight-to-the-point review of the EX1/TL500 by Rayaz who also has a long ISO-comparison series in his July archives, including the Pentax K-x, aforementioned EX1/TL500, Canon S3 IS, and the last two Panasonic TZ-series flagships (TZ7/ZS3, TZ10/ZS7).
Speaking of which, the "deputy" of the current Panasonic TZ-series flagship, the TZ8 (ZS5) is getting its 15 minutes at Camera Labs where they have published their review of said camera, including the usual review goodies from CameraLabs.
You can't swing a mouse cord without hitting a Canon SD4000 IS (Ixus 300HS) review these days. The latest one to join the review party is Imaging Resource, granting the prodigal backlit child of the Elph family an express review.
For the latest lens review action, be sure to check the new dedicated Lens Review mini-site which does one thing and one thing only - it tracks the latest lens reviews. And (shockingly perhaps) it manages to maintain topic discipline ;-)

U.S. votes with Iran, Cuba, Sudan and Zimbabwe against two gay groups at United Nations
Roberta Sklar, Director of Communications
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23, 2006 — The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force today denounced the United States' vote against two gay rights organizations' applications to join the United Nations Economic and Social Council. The United States joined the repressive, anti-gay regimes of Iran, Zimbabwe, China, Cameroon and others in voting against even granting a hearing to the application of the International Lesbian and Gay Association (ILGA) and the Danish Association of Gays and Lesbians (Landsforeningen for Bosser og Lesbiske — LBL). Instead, the two groups' applications were summarily dismissed without a hearing.
"It is an absolute outrage that the United States has chosen to align itself with tyrants — all in a sickening effort to smother the voices of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people around the world," said Matt Foreman, executive director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force. "Apparently Iran, which President Bush has deemed part of the 'Axis of Evil,' is a suitable partner when it comes to discriminating against gay people."
The governments of Iran and Zimbabwe are among the most repressive anti-gay regimes in the world. President Mugabe of Zimbabwe has long scapegoated and persecuted gay men and lesbians. The recently-elected president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has overseen an anti-gay campaign in recent months, in which many young people accused of homosexual acts have been executed. Also leading the charge against the application of the two gay groups was Egypt, which has persecuted gay men in recent years.
"The Task Force thanks the International Lesbian and Gay Association, the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission and Human Rights Watch for their efforts to promote pro-gay policies at the United Nations," Foreman said. "It is repugnant that the self-proclaimed 'leader of the free world' will align itself with bigots and tyrants at the drop of a hat to advance the right wing's virulently anti-gay agenda."
The Bush-Cheney administration has also opposed women's and children's rights treaties, sex education, contraception and family planning in international forums.
Today's vote to summarily dismiss the applications of ILGA and LBL was as follows, according to ILGA: Yes: Cameroon, China, Cuba, Iran, Pakistan, Russian Federation, Senegal, Sudan, United States of America, Zimbabwe No: Chile, France, Germany, Peru, Romania; Abstention: Colombia, India, Turkey Not present: Ivory Coast.
Three years ago, the United States abstained from voting on a sexual orientation nondiscrimination resolution offered by Brazil via the U.N. Human Rights Commission.
The mission of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force is to build the political power of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community from the ground up. We do this by training activists, organizing broad-based campaigns to defeat anti-LGBT referenda and advance pro-LGBT legislation, and by building the organizational capacity of our movement. Our Policy Institute, the movement's premier think tank, provides research and policy analysis to support the struggle for complete equality and to counter right-wing lies. As part of a broader social justice movement, we work to create a nation that respects the diversity of human expression and identity and creates opportunity for all. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., we also have offices in New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis and Cambridge.

Sharing Your Heart on Valentine's Day
The first American Valentines were made and sold by Esther Howland, a young student at Mount Holyoke College whose father was a stationer in Worcester, Massachusetts. At the time most Americans were purchasing imported English Valentines like the ones sold in her father's shop. Around 1830, Esther had the novel idea of creating her own Valentine greetings crafted from imported lace, fine papers, and other supplies. She went on to build a small business, employing several assistants and her brothers to help market her "Worcester" Valentines. With annual sales amounting to about a hundred thousand dollars, a pioneering female entrepreneur was born.
Today Valentine cards are manufactured on a grand scale with greetings that range from the sentimental to the sophisticated with plenty of humor and fun along the way. It seems there is a Valentine for everyone—sweetheart, spouse, children, parents, teacher, and even your pet! Valentine's Day ranks second only to Christmas in the number of greeting cards sent.
A Valentine for the Birds
Remembering the residents outside your door—namely birds, squirrels, and other creatures—while you and your children are creating special crafts can be another good way to spread the love.
Debbie Stapley, the host of the DIY Network's Crafts show, suggests a fun way for children to transfer their ornament-making skills from Christmas to Valentine's Day. "There are two good ways to make ornaments that the squirrels and birds will appreciate, plus you can find most of these items right in your kitchen," says Stapley.
- Cut dense bread into heart shapes with a cookie cutter, then cut a small hole in each slice (big enough to run a ribbon through).
- Bake the heart shapes at the lowest temperature in your oven until the bread is dried.
- Mix an egg white with water and coat the bread with a pastry brush, then sprinkle the coating with birdseed.
- Fit a pink or red ribbon through the hole and decorate your trees with these special mementos.
Stapley also recommends creating another ornament out of a pinecone with a spreading of any type of peanut butter that you have on hand in the house. "Then simply roll the cone in the extra birdseed that you have on hand from the other project," she says. Now you and your kids will have created an easy, inexpensive gift that your outdoor friends will greatly appreciate.

Since the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) in 1979, great strides in gender equality have been made. Women now make up 40 percent of the global labor force, 43 percent of the world's agricultural labor force and more than half the world's university students. The gender disparity for women and girls with regard to educational enrollment, life expectancy and labor force participation has considerably shrunk. Yet gender gaps persist, particularly with regard to higher mortality rates of girls and women, disparities in girls' education, unequal access to economic opportunities and differences in household and societal decision-making. These gender gaps are exacerbated by legal discrimination against women. Where there are laws providing equal rights, they are not always known, implemented nor adequately enforced. Women and girls often have unequal access to the judicial system. Where laws may exist, local traditions, culture and religion may affect a woman's decision to bring her case forward, but also any subsequent enforcement of the laws. Gender equality affects both men and women and empowers everyone and contributes to economic efficiency, more inclusive institutions and representative political climates.
CEDAW provides a comprehensive framework to advance women's rights and has been ratified by 187 countries to date. Because strong legal and judicial systems that equitably uphold the rule of law for all are an important cornerstone of sustainable political, economic and social development it is vital to have a resource of women's rights around the world for global knowledge exchange. The International Models Project on Women's Rights (IMPOWR) is an open and dynamic platform for sharing information on gender equality and women's rights under the law around the world. Our intent is to empower the global community to exchange knowledge and wisdom on effective law reform and enforcement efforts. In this vein, the IMPOWR project consists of two parts – our website and virtual journal, and our Research Database. To learn more about the IMPOWR project, please click here.

FLORENCE — The Lauderdale County Drug Task Force will continue to operate despite a $50,000 shortfall in state funding.
The task force is receiving $70,000 from the state this year, Gov. Robert Bentley announced Thursday.
The Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs administers the funds through the U.S. Department of Justice.
Last year, the task force received $120,000 in funding. Task force officials have asked local entities if they will make up the deficit.
"They keep cutting and cutting, but we have to have the task force," Lauderdale County Sheriff Ronnie Willis said. "It's unfortunate that the drug problem is so bad that we have to have a drug unit, but it is a necessity. We can't do without it."
The task force includes the Sheriff's Department, the Florence Police Depart- ment and the Lauderdale County District Attorney's Office.
"Illegal drugs are a threat to our families and communities," Bentley said in a prepared statement released Thursday. "I am pleased to support the efforts of the task force to combat the use and sale of these harmful substances in Lauderdale County."
The task force has four members assigned from the police and sheriff's departments.
"The grant money doesn't come close to handling the salaries of the agents or the general operation of the unit," Florence Police Chief Ron Tyler said.
He said if task force members didn't devote more resources to the unit, the area would suffer. "We would have more issues with property crimes for sure and likely an increase in all crimes," he said.
"We appreciate the funding we did receive and just hope we don't get cut anymore," Willis said. "The operation of the task force is vital in our constant battle with drugs. I don't want to even think about what would happen without the unit."

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - All of the foot injuries that have hit No. 12 South Carolina has made it difficult at times for defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward to prepare for undefeated UCF.
Both defensive ends Jadeveon Clowney and Chaz Sutton are coping with foot problems, meaning Ward and his assistants have to balance practice with rest - likely for the remainder of the season.
The two defensive lineman spent much of South Carolina's bye week getting treatment and not irritating their injuries so they'll be full speed when the Gamecocks (2-1) take on the Knights (3-0) on Saturday in Orlando, Fla.
South Carolina defensive line coach Deke Adams says Clowney and Sutton didn't have any setbacks this week and will be in the lineup at UCF.

All the news from the annual Google I/O event, including the latest on Android.
The Cel-Fi is an effective solution to extend T-Mobile or AT&T signal to where you couldn't get it before, but it's cost-prohibitive for homes and hence suitable mostly or business users.
At $280, the Vortex is a good deal for a rugged phone, but those looking for a high-end Android phone should look elsewhere.
The Sennheiser RS 220 is one of the best-sounding wireless headphones on the market, but its super sonics don't offset its ambitious price tag when other models in the same line offer similar performance for less.
The Richard Solo 1800 Backup Battery is on the expensive side, but you get a lot of bang for your buck.
Sennheiser's affordable, comfortable wireless headphones sound almost as good as corded 'phones.
The company's 2014 flagship, dubbed the Reference Series, combines a host of enhancements and offers a truly gigantic 120-inch size in support of its bombastic claim.
Pricing not available
The RS 170 continues Sennheiser's unchanging dedication to sonic clarity and they're well worth the price for anyone looking to grab wireless sound from a TV, AV receiver, cable box, or game console.
The Sennheiser RS 180's sound is competitive with similarly priced wired headphones, which should make the RS 180 irresistible to audiophiles seeking to cut the cord.
The RS130s are Sennheiser's best wireless headphones to date.
Although not the brightest, lightest, or most feature-filled projector on the market, the Hitachi Performa CP-RS55 can lay claim to the best price tag, and it may well represent the best all-round value available.

El Paso, TX — Thousands of people got up bright and early and headed over to Cohen stadium to show their support and hope in finding a cure for breast cancer.
Clad in pink, some even with pink hair ran and cheered for the Susan G.Komen Race for the Cure.
"A day of unity and to celebrate those who have beat it and those that are fighting it," said Breast Cancer survivor Elma Navedo.
Breast cancer survivors like Pat Gallardo say the race is a strong support system for patients like herself.
"From everyone I mean people you don't even know. The survivors go in line and you feel the clapping and the cheering for you, you can't help but cry because its like a big hug from everybody," said Gallardo.
Everyone has a story, whether they beat the disease themselves or lost a loved one to it.
"Mamita Chelo, that's what we used to call her. It's very unfortunate but I'm happy to see all the survivors luckily that had won this battle. It was a very sad experience and I miss her dearly. She was like a mom to me. I miss her very much," said Vanessa Maldonado, who lost her grandmother to the disease.
Lizette Varela races with thirty five other people to support her boss who beat breast cancer.
"Our team name was actually chosen by my boss' son. He drew and designed our shirts," said Varela. "That's everything anyone would want to be. That's something you look up to after everything she's been through. I admire her."
Crossing that line is a way to remember someone who's passed or someone who's fighting breast cancer now. It's also a way to help people beat cancer before it starts.
"If you find something, the early diagnosis will save your life," said Maldonado.

Small Studiowww.smallstudio.com.au
At Small Studio we pride ourselves on our creativity, attention to detail and collaborative attitude toward our clients. We have produced visual identities, content-managed websites, CD packaging, posters, brochures, e-cards, banner ads, web application & mobile phone interfaces, stationery, illustrations and even written sweet inspirational music for a corporate power point presentation.
We're thoroughly creative.
With every project Small Studio works on — be it a website, business card or a CD cover there is a series of steps we take:
The first task is to imagine where the work fits in the context of the real world. Who is the target audience? What are the client's priorities? Who is the competition? How can we add to the brief to make the work more effective? At this stage collaboration with the client is essential because it gives us an opportunity to learn more about their business and objectives, in order to plan the best way to help realise their ambitions.
With the background information gathered and research done, we get to work with the look and feel of the project. By this time we already have an idea about which fonts, colours, imagery and layout to use — it's just a matter of putting what's in our heads on to the page (or screen, for that matter).
With the artwork and specifications of the project defined, we get to building and producing finished art. No matter what the medium Small Studio takes a master craftsman's approach to constructing the completed work.
Once the project is complete the final step is to take a detailed look over the design and development process: Does the work exceed the client's expectations? How can it be improved? Even the simplest project has lessons to be learned in hindsight, and it's important to us to never rest on our laurels.
Small Studio uses SilverStripe
From January 2008 Small Studio has preferred to use SilverStripe as its content management system for web-based projects. SilverStripe's easy templating, separation of code and ever-increasing array of extensions makes it the obvious choice for us. Our clients always remark on how easy it is to get around the administration interface, particularly after coming from using other open source CMS packages elsewhere. Using SilverStripe, Small Studio has developed large and small websites whose technical requirements include eCommerce, member subscriptions, online video, PayPal shopping carts, event calendars, event ticketing, music players, Google Maps and on it goes. Some of Small Studio's SilverStripe projects are linked below:

(Reuters) - MV Agusta, a rival of Volkswagen's
"Over the next three years we aim to double (motorcycle) sales with a solid capital structure, and we are convinced that the outcome will be the listing of the company on the stock exchange," Chief Executive and President Giovanni Castiglioni said in a statement.
A source close to the family-owned company told Reuters that MV Agusta is aiming to grow revenues to 120 million euros ($157 million) a year in 2015 from this year's expected 90 million thanks to the launch of new models like the Rivale 800 supermoto.
Applying the valuation multiple implied in VW's purchase of Ducati, MV Agusta could potentially be worth as much as 150 million euros when it lists, providing it hits its targets.
Volkswagen paid 750 million euros to acquire Ducati last year, when Ducati generated 606 million euros from the sale of 44,100 motorcycles and earned 58 million euros in operating profit.
Valuations vary greatly amid the current uncertainty in the industry. Shares in Italian scooter and motorcycle maker Piaggio
As part of its plans to list MV Agusta has hired as executive vice president 53-year old Giorgio Girelli, who as chief executive of Banca Generali
However, Europe's motorcycle market has almost halved in size since 2007, even though premium brands like Ducati, Triumph, BMW and KTM have gained market share at the expense of the four mass-market Japanese rivals including market leader Honda <7267.T>.
This slump helped trigger a shake-out in the industry. Italy's Investindustrial sold Ducati to VW's Audi in July 2012, while BMW offloaded its Husqvarna brand of offroad motorbikes, previously owned by Agusta, to Austria's KTM
A legendary name in the motorcycling racing world, MV Agusta won no fewer than 75 world championship driver and constructor titles before largely disappearing in the 1970s.
Its rebirth in 1992 under motorcycle entrepreneur Claudio Castiglioni and renowned designer Massimo Tamburini created the F4 superbike, one of which belonged to King Juan Carlos of Spain and was loaned out to the Guggenheim Museum for an exhibit.
In the past 10 years, however, the brand has repeatedly come under financial duress and gone through several owners that included Harley-Davidson and Malaysian state-owned carmaker Proton
Thanks to the launch of its all new range of three-cylinder sport and "naked" bikes, which have no fairings, MV Agusta increased annual sales by 87 percent to around 7,000 motorcycles last year, while revenue jumped 50 percent to 70 million euros.
Both MV Agusta and Ducati also compete with Italy's other major sportsbike maker Aprilia, a unit of Piaggio. ($1 = 0.7649 euros)

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
This common, food-grade bacterium is found everywhere in soil, water, air, and decomposing plant matter.
They will use the dead bacteria in a simulated biological weapon attack at several stations to test a new set of bioterror sensors. They will use the sensors to monitor the spread of the bacteria through the air in the subway tunnels over the next six months to see if these contractor-created technologies are up to snuff.
The sensors should be able to identify and confirm the release of biological agents within minutes of release, a statement from the Directorate said.
"While there is no known threat of a biological attack on subway systems in the United States, the S&T testing will help determine whether the new sensors can quickly detect biological agents in order to trigger a public safety response as quickly as possible," Anne Hultgren, manager of the project, called "detect to protect" or D2P, said in a statement.
The proposed plan was posted for public comment for 45 days, and a public forum was held to discuss the idea before they proceeded with the plan, and no issues were raised.
