Locked Up Abroad
Posted Apr 14, 2008 @ 12:58 AM
They do stories of people who have, well, gotten locked up abroad. It's almost always people who have done illegal things, and admit to it, though one guy got kidnapped by Colombian rebels I think. But usually it's one or more people who are smuggling drugs, large amounts of cash, gold, or something similarly illegal, into or out of a foreign country.
It's really great for schadenfreude. It's in a documentary style, the people involved doing voiceovers while there are re-enactments or actual footage in some cases being shown. There is a lot of "what was I thinking???" as people end up in a foreign for jail for months or years. Yikes!
My favorite so far is the two guys who were caught smuggling drugs out of Venezuela. Just watching the re-enactment as they went through customs, and got caught, and how the 'definitely paid off you can trust us' police weren't really paid off. The prisons there sounded absolutely horrid, and what little footage was available was harsh. They ended up getting out early, on parole, then breaking parole and making it back home.
The others I've seen were some people who strapped tons (not literally) of gold onto their bodies in special vests, and got caught trying to smuggling it into Nepal. Then the Colombian rebel-kidnapped guy. There was another drug-smuggling one I saw, and I'm watching one where some people were caught smuggling a quarter of a million dollars out of Sydney, or something like that.
I must admit, watching the "man, we were so stupid!" exploits of people never fails to amuse me. Anyone else?
Posted Apr 14, 2008 @ 10:21 AM
Yeah, me too. But like you, I view with a jaundiced eye because regardless of the circumstances or assurances that the customs people would be paid off, etc., all of these people were adults who knew they were doing something illegal.

I've only caught a few so far, still. I'd like to see one on Thailand or Cambodia or Vietnam, or on the US. I'm pretty sure there's been an episode on one or both of those that I just haven't caught yet.

Did anyone else see the episode where- I believe- two guys were smuggling drugs, and chose to do it in the US, certain European countries and places in Australia because they didn't want to end up in some third world country's prison? Planning ahead, indeed. And the thing that boggles my mind every time is how so many of these people think it would never, ever happen to them. They are so stupid and selfish, wanting to live easy on money they didn't work for.
A good documentary on this sort of topic, if anyone is interested, is "Pack, Strap, Swallow." They were all women in the same prison, five of them, who either packed drugs into their luggage, strapped them onto their bodies, or swallowed them. I remember a girl from the US, one from Germany, and one from Poland who was very sweet, and looked like a pixie. Unlike most of the people on "Locked Up Abroad", I felt sorry for some of these women. Each and every girl they talked to smuggled for one reason: a man. The Polish girl and the German girl both did it for the same man. It was truly a heartbreaking doc.

I think there was one guy, a Greek(?) sailor who was hired to teach two guys how to sail and didn't find out until they were at sea that the guys who hired him were carrying drugs. He really got screwed. And both of the hostage episodes I've seen (Columbia and Uganda) have blown my mind.
Posted Jul 20, 2008 @ 9:12 PM
That sailor's story broke my heart. He said the whole thing seemed a bit odd from the get-go, but I believed him that he didn't know what the whole deal was about. And it was especially awful how by the time he knew what was really up, it was too late for him to get out of it. His despair over the relationship with his daughter made me cry.
Posted Jul 22, 2008 @ 10:57 AM
I saw two last night that brought up very different emotions in me. One was about missionaries travelling through the Phillipines. Twenty-four people were taken hostage including an American couple. After 13 months only the two Americans remained alive (the hostage-takers wanted money from the U.S. to start their own Muslim state) and let's just say it didn't end well. it actually made me cry a bit.
The other story was an 18 year old American smuggling heroin out of Bangladesh. She seemed shocked that they would actually prosecute her for breaking the law. She provided some information about the man who gave her the drugs and fully expected they would send her home then. She tried to smuggled 7 lbs of heroin out of the country! Her prison experience seemed much more pleasant than the guys in Venezuela, that's for sure.
Posted Jul 23, 2008 @ 2:12 AM
I followed it while it was happening, and I felt so sick for that couple and their children. They were missionaries, but that was their vacation, and they were doing nothing wrong. I don't know what I would do or how I would survive in that situation. She had children to survive for, but even if I had children, if my hypothetical partner died, that would possibly be it for me. If that person was my rock, how could I make it? Why would I want to? And this is coming from one of the most independent, solitary people out there. But after everything is stripped away from you like that, what is the point? A very strong woman, she was. And the actress who played her in the reenactment looked familiar.
Tomorrow I will see heroin girl. That will be interesting.

And then she works at NASA, which requires a security clearance, after being released from prison and arriving back home! Lia was lucky, because someone who would have a similar conviction in the USA would rarely be awarded that kind of opportunity. She should be kissing Bill Richardsons's feet, and walking in front of him and throwing rose petals. She wrote a version of the story to make herself sound pitiful and pathetic, but eventually strong, stuck to it, and is now supposed to be some kind of victim and hero? Sorry, but I don't buy it for a second. And because of her whole "who, me?" schtick, I find her even less sympathetic. The only smuggler I felt true sympathy for was the sailor, who didn't know what he was involved in until it was too late. But Lia is up there with the stupid girls who tried to smuggle drugs out of Peru, or the jerks who broke their parole and flew home.
I don't really know why I feel so strongly about some of these people. I have no problem with certain drugs, as long as people use them in a responsible way, and use them in moderation. Perhaps I just get annoyed with the arrogance of these people, and how absolutely shocked they are that they, of all people, would be caught and arrested for smuggling. And if they are willing to stupidly risk their lives and well-being for a few thousand dollars- which, in the long and short of it is nothing at all- just so they can not have to work, or get to travel around and go on a long holiday, then I can't feel too bad for them. It is laziness and greed that got them into this, and nothing else. I have yet to hear a story about someone's loved one being sick and they need money to pay for their medication or treatments, or any other excuse that, while misguided, you could sympathize with.
On a different note, I want one of those prisoner saris, but I can't explain why.

Mindymoo I felt sick watching this one too. Locked Up A is my new favorite show, but it's too sad and horrible when it's about innocent people who were held hostage. I only like it when it's about dumb drug smugglers who got caught up in greed and fast living.
Points for British accents!
Oh, man, I totally agree. I recently got into this show because I enjoy watching the drug smugglers lose it at the airport when they inevitably get caught and can't believe they are actually going to jail. However, I saw the Philippines episode yesterday and I found it really sad and scary. I have the Chechnya episode on my DVR and I'm afraid that will be similar...
Speaking of British accents, did anyone see the ep about the British guy who had to smuggle this huge amount of heroin and when he couldn't strap all of it to his body, decided to start swallowing condom-fuls of it? It turned out that he was lucky to have been caught because due to a previous intestinal surgery that he'd had, there was no way the condoms of heroin would ever pass through his system and he would have died. Crazy!
Also, I think this show has pretty good quality reenactments.
Posted Aug 6, 2008 @ 4:06 PM
Rubinia, I agree with you about the reenactments.
The Chechnya episode was hard to watch in some spots, similar to ones in the Philippines and Uganda.
Admittedly, I have little sympathy for some of these people--the two girls imprisoned in Peru may have been the worst offenders. However, that does not mean I don't find their stories compelling.
Posted Sep 30, 2008 @ 1:22 AM
1. How could you have been so stupid to not only have fallen for this girl, but to have bought such ridiculous scenarios day after day, and still have feelings for her and wonder if she played you, or if she really did love you?
2. The woman he fell for and married in prison was probably playing him too, looking for an unattached Westerner with a relatively short sentence to take her back to his home when he was released.
3. How do I get a job like that? (I kid, I kid.)
This guy was pretty dumb and gullible, but I could stand him much more than the "Who, me?" heroin bitch from India. (But I have a plane to catch! my visa expires tonight! You can have the heroin, but I need to be on this plane! This is the guy who taped the heroin on me, so will you let me go now? Prison? ME???!!!!!???????)
Posted Sep 30, 2008 @ 9:09 AM
ITA Mindymoo. Unfortunately, he was taken for a ride by this gal, and years later, despite serving some hard time in prison, having gotten married and had a family, he's still got her on the brain. I sorta felt bad for his wife when she see's this show. STILL thinking about HER? Geez!
Anyways, I ended up having nightmares all night....Thanks LUA!
Will continue watching because these people and their crazy decisions baffle me.
Posted Oct 13, 2008 @ 1:41 PM
The only possibilities I see are:
1) she carried nothing and he ended up being caught .DD still not out ahead.
2) the DD and/or she made a deal (before going or while trying to go) with the police to let her go with whatever amount she had in exchange for him getting caught. But then why 6 kilos? Would 1 to 3 be enough?
Posted Oct 13, 2008 @ 2:38 PM
But yeah, I agree, I can't believe he was still doubting whether she really set him up or what. I can see him still thinking about her given what a negative impact she had on his life, but hopefully those thoughts are limited to him hoping she sat in squallid prison for as long as he did. Somehow, I doubt it though...that guy had "I'm a rube and a sucker for any con artist with a pretty face" written all over him. I agree that it's weird that he married someone he met in prison that was visiting another inmate. Sigh. Hope she hasn't taken his money and run yet. I give it another six months.

Oh yes indeed..I have snacks..you see I was taken in by a lovely group to live in the Pink Munchkin Castle...accomodations there are grand..and the munchkins are perfect hosts... i don't even have a curfew(i can come and go with TinMan, as I please)
I have had NO time to scrap, I haven't even turned on my computer in 3 days!! I hope I can et my layout done this weekend :(
Only 30 of the 76 layouts are up .. not even half yet!
I'm wondering if everyone is struggling with this one.
I got the journaling done really fast, but am just now having time to scrap (and it's 1 a.m. Ah!). Maybe everyone else is just a time factor with DSD and all.
yup I had to sit and think what I'd *really* want - came quickly once I'd pinned it down in my head!! x
This is a tough one, and I think people are so busy with DSD that they may be forgetting the deadline. Bet we'll see a bunch of last minute entries!
That was me!! I have been oogling in the stores all weekend, totally forgot about the challenge! LOL! And thank you so much, Michelle, for the tip! ;)
I am so sad, but decided to not compete this week (#3). We are going on vacation for 2 weeks next Monday, and I just didn't feel right taking a spot away from someone else (if i was voted out!) that might have had a chance.
Good luck, everyone! I can't wait to see who won when I get back!
I need your help ladies. I have one more letter to find for the Immunity Challenge and can't find it. I've perused Connie Prince's shop, but mainly focusing on kits. Anyone know if there is one in her shop and if so a hint as to within number range? I'll bake a really nice cake!

"What have we got here? Global exotic.
No matter where you start a collection you absorb the world around you and carry it onto your projection. We began with influences which seem to be quite arbitrary but nevertheless through the process of applying them you evolve a vision, a projection. We are always designing for a parallel universe because we are making something different, a bit new. (All designers do this). It's a world where people look good – interesting people who lead a better life.
We started…A kind person sent us a little book on beatles "for inspiration". Coloured markings and patches, iridescence, wing cases and wings, hard articulated bits, antennae. We interpreted the patches as holes filled with ruched self-fabric which puffed up but pulled and stretched and because these patches didn't fit very well they left little corners and lumps sticking up around where they were inserted. These insect cuts talk about human bodies. Then – because we had visited the Prado – there is the influence of costume in Velasquez; slashed clothes had evolved into great bands describing large silhouettes.
Also for a print I took and coloured and elaborated the drawn pattern which was covering a box of Chinese tea. This print is somehow global – exotic; it could be Indian, Asian, Russian, African (I was reading "Sinbad the sailor" at the time). I took advantage as always of my squiggle print which is also a universal – exotic print – printed on our clompers (my name for our recent platforms) looks tribal. I wanted a tribal feeling (always exciting) but also an alien feeling – for this I said to hair and make-up I want hairstyles of different tribes and make-up which is all the same – almost nothing done, but strange.
I think the greatest single influence on art and the way we see the world happened at the beginning of the 20th Century and carried on and ramified throughout. I mean the Ballet Russes and Diaghilev its creator. Romantic, fairytale, folk, myth interpreted through the eyes of modernity. Influenced: all the musicians, Matisse, Picasso, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, you and Andreas and me.
Really the only connection with the collection and the Climate Revolution is the title but I want to remind you that it has begun, that we must all act fast, that our first line of attack is the economists who still insist on keeping separate the mutual cause of climate change. Their ignorance is driving into economic and environmental misery. Economists must face the truth and join the Climate Revolution.

Raiders-Browns blacked out
By Steve Corkran
Thursday, November 29th, 2012 at 12:50 pm in Oakland Raiders.
The Raiders-Browns game is blacked out, so it will not be televised locally, a team official said.
The Raiders needed to sell at least 85 percent of the tickets for the game to be considered a sellout and, thereby, televised locally.
This snaps a string of 13 straight regular-season home games televised locally, dating back to the start of the 2011 season.
Given the Raiders record, it's difficult to envision them selling out against the Chiefs on Dec. 16, either. The Thursday night game against the Denver Broncos and Peyton Manning has a decent chance of selling out.

2000 Industrial Rd, Las Vegas, NV | Directions 8910236.147830 -115.162611
24 hours a day 7 days a week
Neighborhoods: Las Vegas
NIGHTMARE! – They overcharged us! Don't take this service. You will regret it. I am going to file a complaint with the Nevada Transportational Authority.
Presidential Limo is Awesome! – I live in Vegas, but I took the Ultra Strip Tour (only $260 INCLUDING tip for 6 people and FREE champagne!!!!!) with a out-of-town friends who wanted to see Vegas! We had an AWESOME time!
The driver showed up in a pristine limo at my house and took us on an amazing 3.5 hour tour where he let us out wherever we wanted and was always there to pick us back up.
I'll be doing it again for another group of friends coming to town in a month.
I also just paid $60 per way to/from the airport in a digusting cab to my house in Summerlin and WISH i had just gotten a roundtrip deal from the airport in a LIMO with FREE CHAMPAGNE for $124. GRRRR. I'm pissed at myself.
Anyway, they were great and using a limo was SO much cheaper that I thought it would be. I will keep using Presidential Limo.
Horrible!!!!!!!!!!!! – Do NOT use Presidential LIMO!
I have gone to las vegas four times and have used airport Limo's before. However this was first time I used Presidential and they had the worst customer service!
I used Presidential with 3 other people in a 6 passenger limo and recieved 3 different quotes.
Later we scheduled a sedan pick-up at Caesars for the return back to the airport. They were supposed to pick us up at Caesar at 12pm. We came out at 12:04pm....four minutes late. They did NOT call us and they literally marked it as a NO SHOW. I called Presidential and asked to be picked-up asap!!!!!!!!! The dispatcher stated that there would be a sedan there in 5-10 minutes. 15 mins. rolls on by and no pick-up!
I called AGAIN. In total I had to wait 30 mins!!!! During that time the Executive came through and we went with them. Also, I was so upset that we barely made it on time for our flight that I asked for a manager.
The guy stated that a manager would call me back....NEVER did!
I called the following day and talked to the manager. The manager stated that he would call me back later to work something out.
Guess what? The manager NEVER called me back.
I highly recommend that if you take a limo, to take anything other than the Presidential.
Cons: Worst customer service
you will need extra time to get to the airport – The pickup at the airport was smooth and enjoyable; however the return to the airport was a little stressful because the driver arrived nearly ½ hour late, and probably wouldn't have come at all if I hadn't called the office to ask where my ride was. No apology or anything – just late.
Amazing Evening – I booked a stretch limo a few weeks ago for our 1-year anniversary. We were treated with the utmost VIP respect, served champagne, and my girlfriend was given roses when we reached our dinner destination.
Our driver was dressed to impress and even suggested taking us to the famous Las Vegas sign for a picture since we hadn't done so yet.
Great service...recommended to everyone!
Best Customer Service in Las Vegas – I used Presidential Limo's for the first time, and booked their tour of the Strip. Our driver (Lee) was great and was so helpful. The time in the limo was great and I felt like a true VIP when he served us the champagne. Next time I'm coming to Vegas I will make sure to have them pick us up from the airport. I compared their prices to many other companies online and they beat most prices (probably because they own their limos and are not just a booking company looking to make a buck) Thanks again!
I had a great experience – I reserved a limo with Presidential to take advantage of the complimentary champagne and rose, for my girlfriends 21st Birthday. Our chauffeur was dressed to impress in a full tux, and showed up right on time.. the limo was set up with glassware and looked great! The limo was clean and our ride was great! I've been in lots of limos in Vegas and none were set up like the Pres limo, and I definitely did not feel like our driver was in a hurry, or should have been driving a taxi. I would recommend Presidential Limos to all of my friends! I've seen there Escalades and they are sweet!
HORRIBLE LIMO SERVICE – We ordered a limo for my daughter's 18th birthday. We were taking a group of 6 to dinner and a show. The initial pickup was 10 min late. I had to call the company instead of receiving a courtesy call. The car was as ordered with a bottle of comp. champagne and a rose for all of the ladies. The return trip home was a nightmare! We got out of the show about 30 min early and called the company to see if an earlier car could be arranged. The dispatcher stated, "No Problem - there is a car right around the corner." 1 hour later the car arrived. During that hour I had called 3 times to see what was the status of the car. The 1st 2 times I got disconnected. The 3rd time the dispatcher put the phone down without putting it on hold and proceeded to make rude comments regarding our calling. When the driver arrived he cited having to drop other people off as being the reason the car was late. On the ride home, he ran through a red light and then had me stand outside in the cold for 10 minutes why he tried to get the dispatcher on the phone to verify the credit card. It happened to be the card they already had on file.
Very unprofessional limo company. I have used several over the years.

With VMware View, Berryessa Boosts Desktop Usability and Access—Cost-Effectively
"Before, it sometimes took weeks for us to respond to desktop support calls. Today, because we've implemented a VMware View virtual environment, we can resolve issues remotely. Users are back up and running within minutes."
Best, Best & Krieger
VMware Has Allowed BB&K To Implement A Nearly 100% Virtual Solution Which, By Its Nature, Has Reduced The Storage Space Needed For Their Physical Servers, And Reduced Its Server Sprawl. Using VMware, BB&K Can Now Roll Out New Applications In Minutes, Saving The IT Staff, And Ultimately, The Attorneys, Valuable Time.
"I am always amazed when I hear somebody say their company is not virtual because it cannot afford it. I ask how can it not -- we are saving costs on just power and cooling every day. VMware has made it much easier for us to be successful at our mission. I can't imagine going back to the old system."
Betagro Group
VMware virtualization enabled Betagro to eliminate datacenter facilities constraints while providing a faster, more responsive service to the business and enhancing disaster recovery.
"Deploying VMware has enabled us to consolidate our server fleet and reduce our datacenter power, cooling and real estate requirements, respond more quickly to business requirements and ensure operational continuity by improving our disaster recovery capabilities."

In this video, Martin Claassa, Biestien College Netherlands and Jos Wijiman, International School & Stedelijk College, Eindhoven outline how they have been using VMware solutions for past 5 to 6 years to consolidate hardware, making them flexible and scalable when needed.
"5 years ago when we had to decide what type of virtualization software we were going to need, we had a look at Microsoft, which was n't mature enough and Xen from Citrix did not meet our requirements. The only product that gave us everything we needed was VMware."
Biomni has managed to transform the speed and agility with which it can meet customers' needs by adopting VMware vCloud Hybrid Service solution. It can now set up new environments, develop new features and improve client services more efficiently than ever before.
"To set up new test and development environments could take several days or even weeks, as it could involve purchasing, configuring and installing new hardware," comments Angus. "We also, on occasion, had to move staff from existing projects to help with more urgent priorities, as setting up these environments could be labour-intensive. This was hugely disruptive for a small business."

Most of these sufferers rely on medicines to aid them deal with the discomfort without ever before managing the origin of the issue. As a matter of fact, the much longer you make use of tablets to mask the problem the a lot more you accumulate a resistance and are obliged to up the quantity.

Once again Texas is on top. More than 700 top CEOs around the nation rank Texas as the best state to do business for the ninth year in a row. That study was done by Chief Executive Magazine and is based on taxation and regulation, quality of workforce and living environment. Florida and North Carolina are not too far behind Texas on the list, but California continues to rank last for a ninth year in a row.
Forbes is out with its list of the best cities for jobs and Texas has four major metro areas in the top 10. The list is led by Ft. Worth at number four, Houston at number five, Dallas at number six and Austin-Round Rock, which slips from first place last year to 10th. San Antonio comes in at a very healthy number 12. Corpus Christi was fourth on the list of the best mid-size cities for jobs. And when it comes to the best small cities for jobs, Midland came in at number one, followed by Odessa and San Angelo at number five. You can thank the oil boom in Texas for creating jobs but there has also been growth in tech, manufacturing and business services.
The Energy Department says you can expect to pay $3.53 a gallon for regular gas this summer-- that's 16 cents a gallon cheaper than last summer. But that's a little more than what you're paying now. According to AAA, the average price in Texas for regular gas is $3.35 a gallon.

ANNALS OF JUSTICE about the "extraordinary rendition" program by which the United States sends suspected terrorists to countries such as Egypt to be interrogated and tortured… Writer tells about Maher Arrar, a Syrian-born Canadian citizen who was arrested at Kennedy airport in 2002 and flown on an executive jet to Amman, Jordan, then driven to Syria where he was beaten by his interrogators… According to Scott Horton, an expert on international law, a hundred and fifty people have been rendered. Tells about the shift in Administration policy away from not returning people to countries where they are likely to be tortured. Labelled the New Paradigm by then White House counsel Alberto Gonzales, the new policy placed a premium on the ability to quickly obtain information from captured terrorists. The most common destinations for rendered suspects are Egypt, Morocco, Syria and Jordan… Discusses the Bush Administration's justifications for the change in policy which goes against the Geneva Conventions. Also questions the effectiveness of intelligence gained under torture… Writer interviews Michael Scheuer, a former C.I.A. counter-terrorism expert who helped establish the rendition program. He is now a critic of the program. He describes rendering as the product of desperation on the part of the C.I.A. The program began in 1995 with a secret pact with Egypt which resulted in the abduction of Talaat Fouad Qasem, an Egyptian terrorist. Tells about other operations in Albania. Since September 11th, the number of renditions has grown and the shortcomings of this approach have become manifest… Writer interviews Dan Coleman, a former F.B. I. Agent who worked with the C.I.A. He believes that a patient approach to interrogation is often more fruitful than torture. Coleman also discusses the suspects being held at Guantanamo Bay… The Bush Administration's redefinition of the standards of interrogation took place almost entirely out of public view. Tells about a series of memos by Alberto Gonzales and John C. Yoo which advised the President that he had almost unfettered latitude in his prosecution of the war on terror. Tells about the re-classification of terror suspects as "enemy combatants" which, Yoo argued, exempted them from the Geneva Conventions… Writer discussed different methods of torture, including "water-boarding" in which suspects are held under water to the point of asphyxiation… Tells about Mamdouh Habib, an Egyption-born citizen of Australia who was arrested in Pakistan and ultimately flown to Egypt where he was interrogated for six months. Also discusses the cases of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Zacaraias Moussaoui and of Hadj Boudella, a Muslim of Algerian descent who was arrested in Bosnia…

Art in Qatar
A Smithsonian in the sand
With the opening of Mathaf, the first Arab Museum of Modern Art, Qatar is racing to turn itself into the cultural hub of the Middle East
Dec 29th 2010 | DOHA | from PRINT EDITION
QATAR'S ambition to become the Gulf's most important cultural destination took its first step with the opening of the Museum of Islamic Art in 2008. The stark white dome of travertine slabs, overlooking the waters of Doha bay and visibly Islamic in aesthetic, was designed by I.M. Pei, the Chinese-American architect who built the glass pyramid for the Louvre in Paris. For more than 20 years the al-Thanis, Qatar's ruling family, had been buying the best Islamic objects that came on to the market, including glass, carpets, astrolabes, Korans, manuscripts and miniatures. With its unusual interiors, its magnificent display cases and its clever lighting, Mr Pei's creation quickly (and rightly) took its place as one of the great museums of the world.
The al-Thanis will reach their next major cultural milestone in 2013 when Jean Nouvel, like Mr Pei a winner of architecture's most prestigious honour, the Pritzker prize, unveils his National Museum of Qatar. The pearl-shaped emirate was little more than a string of nomadic tents 50 years ago, so no one is saying what will be on display inside the building. But hoardings along the huge construction site on the Corniche show that Mr Nouvel was inspired in the design of the museum itself by the rose-shaped encrustations of salt crystals that are to be found in the desert.
In between there is Mathaf, an embryo project opened on December 30th that aims to give modern art a wider audience in the Arab world. Mathaf, after the Arabic word for museum, is based on a collection, mostly of paintings, that dates back to the 1840s. It has been given a temporary home by Doha's Education City, in a former school (pictured above) that has been refurbished by a practical French architect, Jean-François Bodin.
The project took less than a year to complete and cost just €8m ($10.5m), according to Mr Bodin. But the al-Thanis' aims for the museum are ambitious. "With the opening of Mathaf", says Sheikha al-Mayassa al-Thani, the emir's daughter who chairs the Qatar Museums Authority (QMA), "we are making Qatar the place to see, explore and discuss the creations of Arab artists of the modern era and of our own time."
Modernist art for public display in the Middle East has long been something of a paradox. Painting is not part of the Arab tradition and museums are a Western invention. Arab art from the 19th and early 20th centuries has a very European feel. A small artistic elite studied in the beaux arts schools in France and Italy and then spent their lives mostly teaching—and painting camels and donkeys, markets and peasants in an accomplished if often undistinguished manner. The chief value of these paintings today is as a record of a way of life that has long gone.
From the interwar period a number of schools sprang up in Baghdad, Beirut, Cairo, Damascus and Tunis. Artists were trying to make sense of modernity, the end of colonialism and the struggle for independence, but the work they produced was often derivative and the collections in which it was shown patchy or transient. Tehran's Museum of Contemporary Art, for example, gathered, among other things, fine work by Jackson Pollock, Alberto Giacometti and Henry Moore. These, together with its modernist Iranian works, were on show for a while after the museum opened in 1977 but have hardly been seen since the revolution two years later.
The Museum of Modern Art in Cairo shows only work by Egyptian artists, yet some of the country's best pieces are in a private museum in Alexandria which is devoted to the work of Mahmoud Said, a lawyer who painted folklorist scenes as a hobby, and the canvasses of Adham and Seif Wanly, two brothers who worked together and exhibited in Venice and São Paulo. Most of the best work in the region is held in private collections that are rarely seen unless they are auctioned off. When Mohammed Said Farsi, a former mayor of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, recently sold his collection at Christie's in Dubai, some of the works fetched more than $2m.
Then in 1986, a young member of the Qatar royal family bought his first picture, an upside-down pyramid by Yousef Ahmad, a Doha-born painter trained in Cairo and California. Twenty-five years on, Sheikh Hassan al-Thani's collection has grown to over 6,000 works and is now the most extensive gathering of modern Arab art in the world. In 1994 Sheikh Hassan opened a private museum, but the plan had always been to give it to the Qatar Foundation and build a new home for it. "We want this museum to become the home of Arab modern art in the Middle East," he says.
The formal opening of Mathaf, by the emir, was attended by Dominique de Villepin, a former prime minister of France who is on the QMA board, and Jeff Koons, the world's most successful sculptor, on his sixth visit to Qatar in a decade. The museum's lobby was hung with a double portrait of the emir and his wife by a fashionable Chinese painter, Yan Pei Ming. Sheikha al-Mayassa had commissioned the paintings as a surprise for her parents.
Three exhibitions fill the museum and a sister lot built in the grounds of the Museum of Islamic Art for a show planned for 2012 by the Japanese pop artist, Takashi Murakami. The first, "Sajjil: A Century of Modern Art", from Mahmoud Darwish's poem, Sajjil, ana arabiy ("Record, I am an Arab"), shows a selection of the works that Sheikh Hassan has bought over the years, including four of the key pieces from the first Farsi sale, among them the top lot, Said's 1934 work, "Les Chadoufs".
In a second show, "Interventions", the curators asked five living artists who are well represented in Sheikh Hassan's collection to create new pieces. The drawings of life behind bars by Ibrahim Salahi, a Sudanese artist, hang alongside his most influential work, "Reborn Sounds of Childhood Dreams", that dates back to 1962. The painting was kept rolled up in Khartoum during Mr Salahi's years of imprisonment and exile and is on public display for the first time in more than four decades. Dia Azzawi, a Baghdadi artist living in London, has placed white roses made of resin and representing the Iraqi academics dead or missing since 2003 around the hooves of two bronze horses, symbols of the military defeat of Iraq. "Told, Untold, Retold", the third show, brings together work by 23 contemporary artists. Among the most interesting are Jerusalem-born Steve Sabella's photographs of Israeli and Palestinian men hardly distinguishable in their boxer shorts and the paintings on paper by Marwan Sahmarani, a Lebanese painter who was inspired by a famous 16th-century engraving by Albrecht Dürer.
More interesting than the inaugural exhibitions, though, is what Sheikh Hassan is trying to do with the Mathaf project. Buying art quickly brought him in contact with artists. Mr Salahi spent much of his exile in Qatar with Sheikh Hassan as his patron. After the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and the first Gulf war, he also began supporting Iraqi artists who could no longer sell their work at home, sending them canvasses and paints and even bringing two or three every year to live and work in Qatar at his expense. He has extensive holdings of two of the best Iraqi artists, Ismail Fattah, a realist sculptor from Basra, and Shakir Hassan al-Said, who studied in Paris and co-founded with Jewad Salim the Baghdad Modern Art group in 1951. Since the looting of the National Museum of Iraq in Baghdad, Sheikh Hassan's collection of Iraqi art is the biggest in the world.
When he began buying Arab art a quarter of a century ago very little proper research had been carried out on the region's artistic movements: there were almost no books. By acting as a patron and bringing artists to Doha, Sheikh Hassan has made the city an artistic centre. He now plans to publish an encyclopedia of modern Arab art. Already he has begun to build up a library that he wants Mathaf to develop so that it becomes a research centre for Arab art in the region.
The al-Thanis believe that teaching young Qataris about their history and artistic heritage is important. A far bigger gap exists between generations in Qatar and other conservative Arab countries than in the West. Mathaf wants to create joint programmes with the Doha Film Institute, to encourage young poets to write about the art that inspires them and to set up a programme of teenage guides who will take their peers around the museum.
But the road to understanding will not be simple. Artists challenge boundaries and sex is a particular barrier. Ghada Amer, an Egyptian artist who lives in New York, carved an amorphous sculpture with 100 Arabic synonyms for love rather than try to persuade the Qataris to exhibit her better-known work which is often pornographic. Two Iranian artists, Ramin and Rokni Haerizadeh, had to flee their homeland after their erotic montages of mullahs appeared in a 2009 exhibition in London's Saatchi Gallery. Although they now live just down the road in Dubai, the brothers were not invited to participate in Mathaf's inaugural shows. Whether Mathaf continues in this timid vein remains to be seen.
Nearby Abu Dhabi has invited the Louvre and the Guggenheim to build offshoots of their museums in the Middle East, and is funding their acquisitions. Qatar prefers a more home-grown approach. It is considering a number of ways of using its collections of photography, weaponry, orientalist art, natural history, Mughal jewellery, stamps and traditional costumes. Even if only half of these get off the drawing board, Doha may well become the cultural hub that Sheikh Hassan dreams of.

While recent weeks have seen the first team face the challenges of a hectic match schedule, with four Barclays Premier League games in nine days, the festive season has been quieter for those involved in the Under-21 side and the Academy.
Dermot Drummy's team were last in action on December 16, while Adi Viveash's Under-18s rounded off their calendar year with a 6-0 win over Reading four days before Christmas, and both groups have enjoyed a couple of weeks' break since.
However, January is shaping up to be a busy month across both age groups, with eight games in the diary, starting with Monday's visit of West Ham United to Aldershot, in the last eight of the inaugural Under-21 Premier League Cup, a game live on Chelsea TV.
The young Hammers defeated Bristol City at the beginning of last month to set up the London derby, while Chelsea won 4-0 at Cardiff City, with Lewis Baker, Jeremie Boga and Alex Kiwomya on the scoresheet.
Midfielder John Swift, who also featured in that game in South Wales, was pleased with the way he and his team-mates performed in the Welsh capital. Speaking to the official Chelsea website, he said: 'It's always hard going away to a team like Cardiff but to come away with a win was the main thing on our minds.'
'It makes a difference playing at a Premier League stadium as well because the pitch is always a bit better, especially at the moment with the bad weather. The pitch can make a big difference for us because we like to play football so when it is nice then it makes that a bit easier.'
With the semi-finals in sight, the competition represents a chance for Drummy's boys to win some silverware and, after the disappointment of defeat in both the NextGen Series and FA Youth Cup finals last term, the desire is there to go one step further this campaign.
Yet West Ham will present a stern test and the players know from previous encounters that the game is likely to be tight, open and entertaining. Swift remembers those past meetings, including a memorable Youth Cup victory at Staines in February 2012, and reckons this clash has all the ingredients to be another great contest.
'Everybody knows it is a massive game,' he said. 'Every time we play West Ham it's close and there's been last-minute goals and drama so of course it's a big game. Chelsea against West Ham has always been massive, even for the youth team and the Under-21s.'
The two sides most recently met in a league game at Aldershot at the start of November, when Nathan Ake's last-minute goal earned the young Blues a share of the points. Swift was also among the goalscorers that evening and his prolific form in front of goal this campaign has certainly impressed. He has 10 goals in 16 appearances so far, making him the top goalscorer at his level, and he feels it was his blistering start to pre-season that set him up for such a strong first half of 2013/14.
'Pre-season was actually a big surprise for me in terms of my goalscoring because I only scored four goals in the whole of last season. Going into pre-season I definitely had goals on my mind and scoring in every game during it gave me some real confidence in that respect going into this new season.'
A central midfield player throughout much of his time at the club, since joining at Under-14 level, Swift has also found himself used out wide this season by manager Drummy, and he is simply happy in whichever position he can to contribute to the team.
'I have spoken to Dermot a lot about it,' he explained. 'I prefer to play in the middle because I think I'm a central midfielder but Dermot changes the team every now and again and if I'm out on the wing then I'm happy to play there. I like to get forward, run with the ball and get at defenders, and scoring goals has been my thing this season, so I'm happy.
'I was a bit disappointed with myself last season. I didn't think I was playing that well to get into the Under-21s starting team but this season I've done a lot better. I think the main reason has been adding goals to my game and that can certainly help to change any manager's mind.'
Swift's improvement in front of goal has been remarkable and he is quick to credit the advice of a familiar first team player in helping him develop that side of his midfield game this season.
'Dermot mentioned to me at the end of last season about going and speaking to a first team player and so I went and spent some time with Frank Lampard. He talked to me about how he's always turning his head, always scoring goals and he stressed the most important thing was to get in the box every time the ball went forward or out wide.
'Afterwards I went and watched clips of him playing and I've continued to constantly watch his game to try and pick things up. In terms of goalscoring midfielders there's not many better people to go and talk to and learn from than Frank.'
Aside from the more immediate aim of claiming a place in the last four of the Under-21 Cup competition, Swift has also set his sights on continued progress at Chelsea throughout 2014.
'I think my goals for 2014 would just be the same as every other player involved in the Under-21s; to train with the first team and then to get on the bench for a cup game or even just to travel with the matchday squad.
'It's been really good travelling with the first team to the Champions League away games [the Under-19 UEFA Youth League group stage mirrored the first team's matches]. Jose Mourinho comes round and shakes everyone's hand and just makes us all feel a part of it so that's been a really good experience.'
The Under-21s take on West Ham at Aldershot's Electrical Services Stadium on Monday 6 January in the quarter-finals of the Under-21 Premier League Cup, with kick-off at 7.05pm. Tickets are £3 adults and £1 concessions, while season ticket holders will have free entry on production of their valid 2013/14 season ticket. The game will also be broadcast live on Chelsea TV.

Affected individuals may have developmental delay, intellectual disability, slow growth leading to short stature, and weak muscle tone (hypotonia). Many people with the condition have no apparent physical or intellectual disabilities. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, with about 70 percent of affected individuals inheriting the condition from a parent. In other cases it occurs as a de novo mutation (new genetic change) in an individual; however, individuals with a de novo mutation can can pass the duplication to their children.[1]22q11.2 duplication syndrome is a condition caused by an extra copy of a small piece of

How do I obtain a User Mode (Application or Service) Crash Dump for ProxyClient?
Problem Description
A ProxyClient process or the application itself has stopped responding.
It can stop responding (hang) for various reasons:
Note: An application or process that is not responding to input is said to be hanging or frozen; an application or process that has stopped functioning correctly is said to have crashed. For troubleshooting a crash or Blue Screen of Death (BSOD), see KB4882.
A hung or frozen application still exists in the list of running processes, but usually there is no way to restore functionality short of terminating and restarting that process.
First, determine which ProxyClient process has the problem by checking the Application or System event logs.
If logs indicate ProxyClientSvc.exe has the problem
ProxyClient Auto Dump Collection automatically captures and saves dumps for ProxyClientSvc.exe in the Blue Coat support folder. The folder's contents are collected by ProxyClient Data Collector (DC). For more information on the ProxyClient DC, see the ProxyClient Administration and Deployment Guide.
If logs indicate ProxyClientUI.exe has the problem
ProxyClient Auto Dump Collection does not automatically capture and save dumps for ProxyClientUI.exe. Use one of Blue Coat's recommended methods to collect dump files instead.
Note: If ProxyClient seems to stop responding because of another application, see KB4337 to determine which component is causing the issue.
Collecting User Mode Dump Files
Blue Coat recommends using the following tools to collect User Mode dump files; use the tool that applies to your operating system:
Collect Dr. Watson dump files:
Make Dr. Watson the default debugger:
Set up Dr. Watson to collect full dumps (if necessary):
Note: Win32 server operating systems and Windows XP are set up for error reporting by default. Verify that error reporting is set up by right-clicking My Computer, and then going to Properties > Advanced Tab. Select Error Reporting. On the Error Reporting dialog, Enable error reporting, Windows operating system, and Programs should be selected. Click OK if you make any changes.
If it is not installed already, download and install Userdump.exe:
Create a dump (.dmp) file for a hanging process:
Create a dump (.dmp) file for a process that shuts down with an exception:
Use Windows Task Manager to create a user mode process dump file:
Note: User mode and system service dump files are not located in the same place. See Collecting User-Mode Dumps: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb787181%28VS.85%29.aspx.
Starting with Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista with Service Pack 1 (SP1), you can configure Windows Error Reporting (WER) to collect full user-mode dumps and store them locally after a user-mode application crashes. WER does not support applications that do their own custom crash reporting, including .NET applications.
WER is not enabled by default; to enable it, you must have Administrator rights.
To enable and configure WER, use the following registry values under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps key.
A Note on Global Settings and Application Settings
The registry values in the table above represent the global settings. You can also provide application settings that override the global settings.
To create an application setting, create a new key for your application under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps (for example, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\<MyApplication.exe>). Add your dump settings under the MyApplication.exe key. If your application crashes, WER reads the global settings first, and then overrides any of the settings with your application-specific settings.
After an application crashes and prior to its termination, the system checks the registry settings to determine whether a local dump is to be collected. After the dump collection is completed, the application is allowed to terminate normally. If the application supports recovery, the local dump is collected before the recovery callback is called.
These dumps are configured and controlled independently of the rest of the WER infrastructure. You can make use of the local dump collection even if WER is disabled or if the user cancels WER reporting. The local dump can be different from the dump sent to Microsoft.

Hot Pantz: Do It Yourself Gynecology
by Isabelle Gauthier and Lisa Vinebaum
This crucial guide to women's health gets older but not less useful. It features a well organized resource with a clear index of health problems along with remedies. Also contains a glossary of herbs and their properties. A very handy resource to share with a friend in need.
- Bitch Magazine tue 2/4 7:37pm
Hot Pantz provides readers with an understanding of anatomy, recipes to conquer yeast infections and hormonal imbalances, an extensive glossary of self-healing herbs, a list of aphrodisiacs, and it provides instructions on how to give foot massages that will alleviate cramps! I can't tell you how often I consult this zine, or how excited I've been to share information from this zine with a friend in need.
- ideoplastic 5/23/2011
This is brilliant, detailed, effective. Purchase multiple copies because you will give all yours away.
- Active Distribution 1/17/2011
"Hot Pantz, the DIY gynecology zine that's been on the bookshelf of every savvy riot wiccan and herbal grrrl since it was first published in 1994. If there was one object I'd like to place lovingly in the hands of every woman I meet, it's this guide to, as the authors put it, "knowing more about your cunt than your doctor does". With herbal recipes for everything from treating STIs to brewing aphrodesiacs, it's a well-researched, clearly-written, non-condescending booklet that has helped me, at least, feel like my "area" isn't a foreign country that I have to learn a whole new language to visit.
- Elizabeth 3/17/2007
One of the most useful zines I have purchased. Well worth the 3 bucks!
- anonymous 11/8/2005
I can't say much about inflamed cervix but I used the "how to bring on your period" from Hot Pantz and it REALLY worked (this is the parsley juice and vit c thing). But it sounds like doc time for you sister!
- Jill 7/12/2005
is there another resource for do it yourself or a homeopathic method of gynocology, or others who have copies of hot pantz who would like to share the knowledge?
apparently i have an inflamed cervix, dont even know what that means and havnt blead for close to a year now, somethings happening with my body, been eating tons of parsley to bring on the bleeding and.... nothing.

Brooklyn >Wholesale Plants & Flowers > Zuzu's Petals
374 5th Ave, Brooklyn, NY | Directions 1121540.671293 -73.984708
Mon - Sat, 10am - 7pm; Sun, 11am - 6pm
Neighborhoods: Park Slope
Disappointing recent experience. I paid over $100 for an arrangement and delivery. The flowers arrived to the recipient in cloudy, murky water and with tired blooms. A leaf attached to one stem was brown, curled and dried up. I called the store the next day to relate the situation and was told their flowers would never go out like that. The only "compensation" offered was for me to bring the arrangement to the shop to have it inspected and if necessary, have some blooms replaced. I declined. Within two days the flowers were wilted and loosing petals. I will not do business with this establishment again.
Don't be confused...No males here! – Hi,
I actually worked at Zuzu's Petals for over 5 years and so I hope I won't sound too biased. I wanted to write mainly to address any of the reviews that mentioned a male staff member or owner. In those cases, they were not discussing Zuzu's Petals but a business 2 blocks away from the 5th avenue location. We have not had a male staff member in over two years (and he never had a notebook) and the owner is definitely not male!
I am sorry for those customers of ours that did not have a completely positive experience and I am grateful to those who did. We try hard to please our clients, but it doesn't always work out. What we hope for most is that your time at Zuzu's brightens your day,event, or occasion. For those who enjoy our flowers and arrangements, THANK YOU! And for those who did not, we're sorry we didn't meet your expectations.
Either way, please always take time to smell the flowers!
Love it! – I would get flowers from this shop from my boyfriend. Amazing bouqets I really love this flower shop!

I'm currently using the iPhone 3Gs on 3.1.2 firmware, it has been jailbroken using blackra1n.
I'm wonder what the best possible way it is to upgrade to 3.1.3? Because i prefer the untethereed jailbreak. I've been reading and tried and it says i cannot restore back to 3.1.2 because "This device isnt eligible..." i understand why, apple wont sign something
So now im wondering how i would upgeade? Would it be ok to download 3.1.3 and SHIFT+resotre it?
