Is there a way to inherit role permissions?
For example. I have certain capabilities set for "Subscribers". Now I want to create a role to allow some people to upload files. I know I can copy the subscriber role and create a new role, i.e. "Subscriber - Upload". But if I make changes to the "Subscriber" role I'll also have to make the same changes to the "Subscriber - Upload" role. Is there any way to create a role that will inherit capabilities from another role?

I setup pptp on my Linux (CentOS) server. When I connect from a Windows client I am losing name service on the windows side. Connecting to my application works ok, though.
I tried to set ms-dns in option-pptp and also to set a DNS server on the windows side, but to no avail.
Thanks for any ideas, Michael

The goal of the project for those that can't see the video is that an old school bus will be converted into a traveling journalism media center. There will be places on the bus to hook up laptops and camcorders. There will be places to sleep and every once in a while a dance might bus out on the roof.
The bus will be converted into a veggie oil fuel vehicle and there will be a satellite cuz the next natural or un-natural event of nature that hits in the lower 48 states may disrupt the power grid as we know it.
Like all good underground media projects that are rising to the surface they need just a little cash flow. If you can put a latte's worth of cash into the tip jar it would be much appreciated. The project needs about $2,000. I'm figuring if 1,000 people like the idea and drop $2 we can get it done.

At last count, there were more than 150 community gardens across metro Atlanta, some large and spectacular, some super-organic with heirloom veggies, still others meticulously landscaped. The English Avenue Community Garden has few of those qualities, but its very survival has lent a sense of hope and, yes, community to one of the city's most downtrodden neighborhoods. The garden was created in 2008 after residents cleared an overgrown corner lot in Vine City that was littered with trash and abandoned cars. Since then, local families and volunteers have tended 11 raised beds — built because of concerns that the ground was too polluted — and added a playground. Though modest in scale, the garden serves as a gathering spot for neighbors and offers nearby children the satisfaction of seeing live things grow and flourish through their efforts. In this community, that's a powerful lesson. 612 Echo St. 404-520-1968. englishavenuegarden.org.

Putin's Wager
Why the Kremlin Is Betting on Escalation and Isolation
After Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 was shot down over eastern Ukraine on July 17, a catastrophe almost certainly the work of Russian-backed rebels, the United States and the EU implemented new, wider-reaching sanctions. Russian President Vladimir Putin responded by redoubling his Ukraine policy. Rather than distancing itself from the militia groups, Moscow has stepped up its support, transferring arms, providing diplomatic cover, and even ordering Russian forces to fire on Ukrainian military targets across the border. Given the opportunity to abandon an increasingly costly policy, Putin has chosen to escalate.
In so doing, he is steering his country toward a period of prolonged isolation and economic difficulty. U.S. President Barack Obama suggested last week that Putin is behaving irrationally. "Objectively speaking, President Putin should want to resolve this diplomatically, to get these sanctions lifted," Obama said. There is a limit to what the United States can achieve, he added, when Putin and those around him are "ignoring what should be their long-term interests."
But those interests look very different from Moscow than they do from Washington. Putin and his close advisers may be cynical, but they are sincere in their cynicism. They see the West, and the United States in particular, as engaged in an unceasing effort to weaken and fracture Russia. For them, Ukraine represents a redline. Putin's suspicions of Western motives, dissatisfaction with the post–Cold War global order, and fears of a pro-Western Ukraine are parts of the same potent cocktail of grievance and paranoia. The

Marina Berlusconi
Marina Berlusconi (Maria Elvira Berlusconi, born 10 August 1966 in Milan) is an Italian businesswoman, chairwoman of Fininvest Holding[1] and of the Arnoldo Mondadori Editore publishing group.[2] She is the oldest daughter of Italian businessman and politician Silvio Berlusconi.[3]
Berlusconi has been considered for many years, by her father's supporters, to get into politics; she has always rejected such notions, simply stating that she isn't interested. However, in recent years, Berlusconi has had reconsideration in regards to a political career. It is believed that she is the perfect person to take up the reigns of her father's political party--Forza Italia. Her father's PDL party MP Laura Ravetto is quoted for saying that "She is Berlusconi's heir."[4]
Family background and personal life[edit]
She is the daughter of Silvio Berlusconi with his first wife Carla Elvira Lucia Dall'Oglio, and is the elder sister of the businessman Pier Silvio Berlusconi. She is married to Maurizio Vanadia (former first dancer of La Scala, Milan)[5] and has two children.[6]
After an apprenticeship, Marina Berlusconi worked in several positions in the media business in Italy. She is the chairperson of Italy's largest magazine publisher, Mondadori, and chairperson of the family's investment arm, Fininvest, the media holding company founded by her father.[7]
In 2007, Forbes magazine named her the 33rd most powerful woman in the world[6] and the ninth richest woman in the world with assets totaling $9.4bil.

Props to a funny-ass mash-up of the movie Deliverance backed with the Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour. It's just not that often that you get to see mud-caked girls done up as pigs being chased by hillbillies hell-bent on committing acts of aggravated buggery.
This is definitely not politically correct material, and your significant other is probably not going to appreciate you bringing this into the house. Unfortunately, the other scenes don't even come close to the wackiness of the pig scene. Too bad. The JM Productions? boys were on to something.
Retailing: Politically incorrect porn that could use more time in the slop.

Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 and prior contain a vulnerability within the Windows Explorer preview pane (Web view) that can allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary HTML or script code. The vulnerability requires that a malicious file be placed on the system.
Windows Explorer is configured by default to display metadata about a file within the preview pane. An error exists in the library used to examine the metadata of the currently selected file. If the author name resembles an e-mail address, a mailto: link is created from this information and presented to the user as the author information. The library fails to filter malicious characters and character sequences during the transformation. An attacker who
can place a file on the system could cause arbitrary HTML or script code to be execute when selected. The file does not need to be double-clicked, but simply selected. An attacker could utilize this issue to execute arbitrary script on the system with the privileges of the current user in the unrestricted zone.
Exploit code is available to demonstrate the vulnerability.
Patches are unavailable.
Systems running the following are vulnerable:
Microsoft Windows 98 Microsoft Windows 98 Second EditionMicrosoft Windows Millennium Edition Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or prior
Microsoft Windows 98 Microsoft Windows 98 Second EditionMicrosoft Windows Millennium Edition Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or prior
Windows 2000 is configured to use the preview pane by default, making the vulnerable configuration highly likely to exist. Any application that utilizes the affected library is affected in a similar way. An exploit requires significant user interaction, both to place the file and to select it through a vulnerable application.
The vulnerability can be successfully mitigated by disabling the preview pane and configuring Windows Explorer to utilize the Windows Classic Folder view.
Microsoft has released a security bulletin at the following link: MS05-024
Avaya has released a security advisory at the following PDF link: ASA-2005-111
US-CERT has released a vulnerability note at the following link: VU#668916
A remote attacker who can place a file on the Windows file system could execute arbitrary HTML or script with the privileges of the user when the file is selected within the Windows Explorer interface. This could result in the modification or removal of arbitrary files, the execution of arbitrary commands, or the installation of malware.
The vulnerability is due to a lack of sanitization of user-supplied input by the webvw.dll library responsible for displaying metadata within the Explorer preview pane. When the vulnerable library parses the Author metadata from a file, it attempts to format the information as a mailto: URI if the data resembles an SMTP e-mail address. If this address has had script appended to it in a valid manner, the script can execute within the Local Computer Zone when the file is selected within Explorer. An attacker who can convince a user to download a file with the malicious metadata and then view it through the Explorer interface can cause arbitrary script to be run
without prompting the user.
Administrators are advised to contact the vendor for information pertaining to updates.
Administrators may consider disabling the preview pane by selecting Tools - > Folder Options - > Use Windows classic folders.
Users are advised to not download files from untrusted sources.
Microsoft has released patches at the following links:
Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4
Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4
Version 2, May 10, 2005, 1:41 PM: Microsoft has released a security bulletin and patches to address the preview pane script execution vulnerability in Windows Explorer.
Version 1, April 20, 2005, 11:28 AM: Microsoft Windows 2000 contains a vulnerability in Windows Explorer that can allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary HTML or script code with the privileges of the user. Patches are unavailable.

I have mixed feelings about straight men in gay bars. Should gay spaces be for gay people only? Straight men can disrupt the aura of acceptance in a gay space. We go to gay bars and clubs not just to drink, dance and score, but to celebrate our own desires in a safe place, away from homophobic hecklers and heterosexuality.
In 1986, Chris Daughtry was seven-years-old when John Rzeznik and Robby Takac were releasing their first album as the Goo Goo Dolls; yet here he and his band were, co-headlining with the Goo Goo Dolls on a warm summer's night at Los Angeles' Griffith Park's outdoor venue, Nederlander's Greek Theatre.
When I first started out in nightlife, nothing sounded more grisly to me than the words "Wedding DJ." Early on my sister suggested I take this route and I recoiled in disgust. "Why don't I just be a Funeral DJ," I suggested flippantly. "I have more in common with a rotting corpse than a blushing bride, anyway."

When the Colorado Avalanche exited the playoffs in the second round
against San Jose, the perceived underachievement raised a couple of issues:
1. Whose fault was it?
2. Did the likely return of Peter Forsberg to Sweden and the
possibility of a salary cap in the next NHL season -- whenever that is -- mean
the franchise is headed for a significant regression after a decade among
the league's elite?
Avalanche general manager Pierre Lacroix was adamant the day after
the Colorado playoff elimination that head coach Tony Granato remained a
bright coaching prospect in the league, and that he would be back for the
next season. He preferred to emphasize Colorado's 100-point regular-season,
which wasn't quite enough to bring the franchise a 10th straight division
championship, but came in the wake of Patrick Roy's retirement.
In a league that makes an art of scapegoating coaches, Lacroix's quick endorsement of
Granato was a decisive vote of confidence.
But in July, Lacroix hired Joel Quenneville, the one-time Avalanche
assistant, as the new head coach, and said that Granato had acquiesced in
his own demotion.
Granato had 31 games of coaching experience, all as a Colorado
assistant, when he succeeded Bob Hartley in December 2002.
"We hired Tony Granato because we thought he had the qualities to be
a great head coach and a great asset for our company," Lacroix said
recently. "Three months later, we have to have a head-coaching move. Going
outside was an alternative. If we stayed inside, and we believed that
Granato had the potential to be a great head coach, all we were asking was
for him to take over earlier. He took the challenge and he handled it very,
very well, better than expected. Then he loses his assistant coach (Rick
Tochhet, who resigned). You could put an ad in the paper and say you need an
assistant coach, but we're particular in our details."
Eventually, after talking with Granato for several days about the
vacancy on the coaching staff, Lacroix brought up Quenneville.
"I said, 'Tony, there's another way, if you want to think about it,' " Lacroix said.
The other way was going after Quenneville.
So when the Avalanche begins to play again, it will be with the
former Colorado Rockies defenseman running the bench, and with Granato as
his assistant. And Lacroix is adamant that he wasn't considering bringing in
Quenneville late in the season, when he was rumored to be doing so.
If the lockout ends in time for a 2004-05 season, Quenneville still will
have a deep roster. The Avalanche added Antti Laaksonen, Ian Laperriere and
Vincent Damphousse in the offseason. Paul Kariya remains in limbo, probably
until the CBA is settled, but it's likely that both he and Teemu Selanne
have played the final games for Colorado.
And Forsberg's status will remain up in the air, though it seems he has maneuvered his contract status to allow him to play at least one season in Sweden.
As the Avalanche -- like everyone else -- waited to see what happens
with the CBA, Lacroix responded to ESPN.com's questions. Keep in mind the
context: In his decade as a general manager, Lacroix consistently has
publicly advanced the view that the organization is like a family, and his
assessments often are guarded and emphasize the positive.
ESPN.com: Your assessment of last season?
Lacroix: "We had another successful season with 100 points, despite
facing adversity with over 415 man-games lost to injury. It was the fifth
100-point season we have had in nine seasons in Colorado, and we have to be
pleased with it."
ESPN.com: Which players had the most impact last season?
Lacroix: "Many of the young players who were developed through our
system enjoyed strong seasons -- David Aebischer, John-Michael Liles and
Marek Svatos. Unfortunately, Svatos missed the majority of the regular
season with a shoulder injury. Also, as they have done every season, our
core players responded with another strong season."
ESPN.com: Which player needs to take the next step?
Lacroix: "Several of our young players are developing well and we're
looking for them to continue to improve."
ESPN.com: Who in your system might be ready for the NHL?
Lacroix: "Every training camp, we've had pleasant surprises, and I am
convinced it will not be any different this year."
ESPN.com: What was the top priority to improve the organization this
Lacroix: "Our main priority has always been to provide our fans with a
competitive and exciting product on the ice and show them that we want to
play in the last game of the season every year."
ESPN.com: What was your favorite moment of the season?
Lacroix: "Reaching 100 points despite adversity. Also, Patrick Roy
Night on Oct. 28 was a special moment for the organization."
ESPN.com: And your least favorite?
Lacroix: "We tried our best and fought hard, but it would be not
reaching our ultimate goal of winning the Stanley Cup."
ESPN.com: What took you the furthest away from hockey this summer?
Lacroix: "I enjoyed a lot of great times with my grandson, Max."

We recognize that all of our patients are unique and deserve to receive dental care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented dental team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding dental experience every time you visit our practice. We are pleased to welcome you and your family, and we look forward to working with you.
Office Administrator
I have been working in dentistry for 16 years and have witnessed many changes. One constant, however, are our providers at MDC. I am proud to say that I get to work with the best of the best! As a practice administrator I have various duties to keep our office running smoothly such as backing up all team members, scheduling meetings, hiring new employees, and overseeing daily operations. I try to be open and honest with all of our patients because I want them to feel like part of our dental family.
My husband, Clayton, and I have seven children and one dog. In the last year, our oldest has flown the coop and is off serving our country as a United States Marine. When I am not in the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, camping, fishing, and of course shopping!
Tamara Sue
Financial Coordinator
My job is to help our patients understand their financial responsibilities with their dental care. Working in the front office of our dental practice brings me joy as I interact with patients, sharing stories with them and getting to know them on a personal level. I personally treat every patient like a guest in my home. Our doctors are very professional and want the absolute best for our patients at Meridian Dental Clinic. When I go home at night, I am at ease knowing our doctors have truly given their all, to each and every patient.
My husband and I have been married going on 24 years and have two young men in our lives, both in high school. Our family pet knows he is human and lounges around the house all day on the king pillow top. Yep, he is loved! Our family also enjoys the great outdoors as much as possible!
Something fun about me is that I love fast cars and love singing at the top of my lungs like no one is ever listening. I call these "Tamara Sue Concerts!"
At Meridian Dental Clinic there is always something fun going on! Like us on Facebook!
Treatment Coordinator
I am so excited to be one of the newest members of this amazing office! I work one-on-one with the doctors to ensure that each individual has the very best new-patient experience. During our new patients' consults, I explain their treatment and keep them informed on the importance of their oral health. Our office is very thorough, and as the treatment coordinator, I am able to work with the patient to make sure they receive the best care possible.
Our team is very fun and vibrant! Everyone here at MDC is all about patient care. I would refer any of my family or friends to our office! The team here makes beautiful smiles and I look forward to coming to work!
Ethan and I have a son and daughter, both of whom are 14 years old. We enjoy going to the beach with our pom-chi dog named Rogue. We are avid football fans for the Seahawks and Enumclaw High School where my son plays. We love the outdoors, camping, going to the river, and family time.
Restorative Scheduling Coordinator
My name is Laura and I am one of four restorative and hygiene scheduling coordinators at MDC. I meet and greet our patients when they first come into the office, schedule appointments, present treatment plans, and verify insurance benefits. I enjoy everything I do at the office, but the interaction with patients and the ability to help put a smile on their faces is what makes this job FUN! I have worked at Meridian Dental Clinic for over three years and experienced continued positive changes: a major remodel, constant technology updates to better serve our patients, as well as the addition of Dr. Josh Walker and more front office team members to keep up with the constant influx of new patients at MDC.
I am pleased to be able to use my bilingual skills to help my community stay on top of their oral health. I enjoy keeping them informed of the best option to have a healthier mouth and beautiful teeth. What better way to provide information to such an awesome group of individuals than speaking with them in their own language and explaining all of their treatment needs.
During my days off I enjoy watching my boyfriend's soccer team play every Sunday and love watching all the new movies in the theaters. I help record radio commercials for our local Spanish station and sometimes host a 30-minute program that talks about dental hygiene and oral health. I have a nine-year old niece who keeps me busy and takes up any spare time. Since I don't have kids of my own yet, it's nice spending time with her and the rest of my family.
Restorative Scheduling Coordinator
Our team of patient coordinators is dedicated to helping our patients get timely care for all of their dental needs. We focus on helping patients understand the logistics of their dental treatment, maximizing patient insurance benefits on their behalf, and discussing treatment financing options. Whenever a special circumstance arises for our patients, we strive to facilitate our patients with whatever means possible.
I was attracted to dentistry for the opportunity to truly help people and create beautiful, healthy smiles. I wanted to work at Meridian Dental Clinic for the opportunity to accomplish both of those and work with a team that was committed to advancing their skills and knowledge with our dentists. If it is new, high tech or changing the face of dentistry, I want to learn more about it.
As a registered dental hygienist for Meridian Dental Clinic, I have the pleasure of performing professional hygiene services, periodontal therapy, placing sealants and fillings, taking digital X-rays and intraoral photos, and making whitening trays. My favorite aspect of my job is educating my patients on how to improve their oral health and building trust with them. My goal is to provide a high standard of care to every patient I see. Over the years that I've worked as part of the Meridian Dental Clinic team, I've developed some incredible relationships with many patients and thoroughly enjoy seeing during their visits with us.
On a personal level, I am married and have two grown children, two Siberian Huskies, and a cat. I am a big sports fan and love football, baseball, and hockey. I look forward to seeing you at your next visit!
As a new member of Meridian Dental Clinic team, I am excited to build strong and lasting relationships with the wonderful patients at the office. One of the great aspects of MDC is the diversity that we have in our patient population. My goal as a hygienist is to treat and care for each patient individually according to their specific dental needs through preventive and therapeutic treatment as well as patient education.
Outside of work, I enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities including hiking, canoeing and kayaking to name a few. I also love experimenting new recipes from one of my favorite websites, allrecipes.com. Three fun facts about myself: I am a twin, I have lived in four different countries (China, Japan, Canada, America), and "Friends" is my all-time favorite TV show. I have watched all ten seasons at least five times!
My main focus as a dental hygienist is evaluating the health of my patients' gum tissue and working with each patient on an individual basis to improve his or her oral health. Educating patients about what is going on in their mouths is a crucial part of helping people get healthy. I enjoy building relationships with my patients so they feel part of our MDC family.
I found my permanent home at MDC in 2015 and it's a perfect fit! I love being a part of this team; the doctors genuinely care about the great dentistry they are performing and they are very proud of the treatment they provide.
I have been happily married for 31 years and have three great kids and seven grandkids. I love spending time with my family and love to play. I am a Young Life leader and spend lots of time ministering to high school students.
Dental Assistant - EFDA
Hi! My name is Teresa. I have been with Meridian Dental Clinic for 20 years. I hold an Expanded Function Dental Auxiliary license and am the lead for our outstanding assistant team. Since obtaining my EFDA license, I have been able to work more one on one with patients by placing fillings and creating permanent restorations such as crowns, onlays, and veneers through the use of the CEREC® technology. This has renewed my love for dentistry! Being able to enhance the lives of people with the beauty of their smile is very rewarding! I invite you to take a look at some of our before and after photos of treatment that has been completed.
At Meridian Dental Clinic it is very important to us that we provide the best service we can to all of our patients. Whether you are coming in for continuing care with regular hygiene visits or restoring your smile to what it once was, we strive to be your partner in dental health. In order to do this, we participate in many hours of continuing education to make sure we are current on all the best techniques, procedures, and products.
I am married and have one nine-year-old son who stays active with gymnastics and Cub Scouts. We round out our family with our golden retriever, Emma, and our very mischievous cat, Bella. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, camping, snowmobiling, and boating.
Dental Assistant - EFDA
I have spent the past 14 year focused on dental assisting. Now, as an EFDA, I have the ability to do advanced assisting, such as finishing restorations once the doctor has them prepped. We are a great team and together we focus to help and serve our patients with their needs: improving health, relieving pain, and improving aesthetics. I love my team because we all know how to make patients happy!
I am originally from Romania and came to the US in 2004—I still speak Romanian and can assist with translating when needed. I am married and have one three-year-old daughter. When I am not working I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, cooking, and of course shopping!
Dental Assistant
Dentistry is the key to a healthy and great life! As a registered dental assistant my main responsibility is to help the doctors with all dental procedures and presenting patients with treatment plans. My favorite part, however, is giving our patients the care they need and deserve.
I feel really lucky to have found this office. The doctors are the most understanding people I have ever meet. I have learned so much from them and still am. The other assistants and hygienists have all become my personal friends they are a great group of girls to work with. We are all like a big family.
I am a single mother of three boys; they are my life outside of work. I do love what I do and I do work a lot but all my other time is for them. My sons are all sports players. We love sports and watching them, being outside, and doing things like camping or hiking. We also love the sun and swimming! I am very thankful of my children and career that I have!
Dental Assistant
Hi! My name is Rachel and I am a dental assistant at MDC. I have been working here for more than two years. Being at Meridian Dental Clinic has been one of the greatest opportunities for me as I know we offer the best care possible for our patients. Our doctors have done a fantastic job keeping our office up to date so we provide the latest technology in patient care. One thing our patients love about our office is the ability to get everything they need done in one place. We offer a great range of services at MDC: implants, extractions, one-appointment crowns, and Invisalign®, to name just a few. But keep reading! We also offer nitrous (laughing gas) for patient comfort.
I just recently moved to a new place so I am currently still getting settled. I'm a HUGE "Survivor" fan and have not missed one episode! I look forward to the day I will be on the show. Also, my sister just had a baby and he is the first boy of the family. He is truly a blessing!
I'm grateful to have such a wonderful place to work! I hope you take time to check out the rest of our website and YouTube channel. We look forward to seeing our MDC family grow!
Dental Assistant
The combination of high tech dentistry with a strong focus on patient care is what attracted me to Meridian Dental Clinic. I have a diverse educational background and bring a broad range of experience to the Meridian Dental Clinic team. My passion for learning has made me a valued member of the team. The difference we make in our patients' lives combined with advancing technology make dentistry the perfect combination of both continuous reward and challenge. I came to Meridian Dental Clinic because I wanted to be part of a team that was committed to their patients, continuous learning and keeping up with the advancing technology.

On a similar note to this question, I recently booted Ubuntu to recover a Windows partition, but couldn't in any way get the keyboard to register.
I recall back in 8.x that you could easily reach the on-screen keyboard (Virtual Keyboard?) via "Assistive Technologies". It seems to have disappeared since 9.x.
For future reference, how can I easily get to it? Recall that in this scenario I won't have a keyboard to enter terminal commands (e.g. to install

Released: Apr 01st, 1996
Running Time: 80
Director: Michael Haggerty
Company: Bacchus Releasing
Cast: Randy Storm, Dom Sinclair, Boo, Jason Pride, Scott Arden, Jeff Browning, Lorenzo Jay, Tanner Reeves
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Gay and Bi
They say it's the hottest place in WeHo, but Sam the maintenance man needs to be more convincing (especially calling the town "sissy-boy heaven.") The narrator is dull, the story isn't interesting, the sound sucks and the sex, in general, is merely adequately shot and lit. Some high points include the cute boy-next-door Jason Pride and the always dependable Tanner, along with the introduction of cute stud Lorenzo Jay.

Friday Femme Fatale: Sister Kenyattasaurus Rex
The spooky-sexy Sister Kenyattasaurus Rex...
Okay, so last week, I told you we were flippin' the script to Thump Day Diva from Hump Day Honey, and now I'm adding a Friday Femme Fatale, what gives? Jeez, people, I have other stuff to do too, so Monday Mammas and Tuesday Tarts can't be far behind. And what do you care as long as I provide you horndogs with at least one lovely lass per week to salivate over?
This week's felicitous Friday femmebot is torn from the pages of New Times music editor Niki D'Andrea's kick-ass cover story on the impious PHX punk rockers of NunZilla, whose members tear-up the stage in Catholic nun getups, or in the case of the one male member, a priest's collar. Niki showed me some pics from the photo shoot, and I instantly fell for sexy Sister Kenyattasaurus Rex, who makes me want to get down on my knees and pray like I've never prayed before.
The hella-fine Kenyatta is one booful bass player and a voluptuous vocalist who grew up listening to Metallica and Slayer, and has done stints with local punk bands the Cryin' Shames and the Dropouts. Born in Flynt, MI, and raised in the Zona, Kenyatta's a career counselor by day. By night, she's a larger-than-life stage-siren with luxurious, brown-black hair falling forth from her nun's habit, and a slit up her skirt so high it'll make you see Jesus. Thankfully for the male of the species, Kenyatta's divorce became final a couple of days ago, but take it slow, schmos! Kenyatta says she's not in dating mode yet, though she doesn't mind being admired for her pulchridtude during her profane performances.

"I love being dressed up for shows," the Tecate-lovin' temptress tells me. "And as far as music goes, the harder, the faster, the better."
If you long to see Kenyatta in the flesh, and worship her womanly form, NunZilla'll be performing at the Zombie Ball this Saturday night at The Sets in Tempe. And May 5, they'll be celebrating the release of their CD Killing Faith at the Casablanca Lounge. For additional info. on NunZilla, and to peep more of the comely Kenyatta, check out NunZilla's myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/nunzillacomes.

patch for fink/perlmod/FinkServices.pm
The fink program saves scripts it needs to execute into /var/tmp. At least if you interrupt builds as much as I do, these temporary files tend to accumulate in /var/tmp over the years. This patch changes Services.pm to instead put the scripts in /tmp. The advantage is that /tmp is not preserved across reboots, so the scripts won't accumulate in the same way. The patch works against either CVS HEAD or current fink version 0.29.21.
patch for fink/perlmod/FinkServices.pm
A slightly altered version of this has now been merged into our code base and will be included in a future release. See also <https://github.com/fink/fink/pull/1>

Three findings on how businesses can benefit from design:
Design is customer-centred
Benefit is greatest when design is intimately related to solving problems, especially customers' problems.
Design is most powerful when culturally embedded
It works best when it has strong support in the organisation, especially from senior management.
Design can add value to any organisation
Design can benefit manufacturing and service-based organisations, small, medium or large.
Our eight recommendations for how companies can maximise the impact of design:
1. Don't limit the context in which design can operate
2. Use design to differentiate
3. Integrate design and branding
4. Introduce a design process
5. Trust and support your design talent
6. Embed design in your organisational culture
7. Design your work environment
8. Don't let the designer's role be a straitjacket
Case studies exploring how world-class companies like Barlcays, O2, Virgin Atlantic and Diageo used design and what impact it had on their business.

Kitab al-aghani (Arabic: كتاب الأغاني, The Book of Songs), is an encyclopedic collection of poems and songs that runs to over 20 volumes in modern editions by the 10th-century Arabic litterateur Abu l-Faraj al-Isfahani (var. al-Isbahani).[1] Abu l-Faraj claimed to have taken 50 years in writing the work, which ran to over 10 000 pages. It can be seen as having three distinct sections: the first dealing with the '100 Best Songs' chosen for the caliph Harun al-Rashid, the second with royal composers and the third with songs chosen by the author himself.[2] It spans the period from the Jahiliyya to the end of the 9th century CE. Abu l-Faraj importantly included performance directions for many of the songs included in Kitab al-aghani. Due to the accompanying biographical annotations on the personages in Kitab al-aghani, the work is an important historical and literary historical source; it is also useful for those interested in the sociology of Arabic literature.[3]

As far as I know, many Buddhists believe in multiple gods. Doesn't this contradict the idea that the world is governed by the law of karma? Is praying to gods allowed?
Most Buddhists believe in some form of "higher" being; brahmas, devas, etc. It is not an orthodox Buddhist practice to pray to these deities, but people are people. Ordinary Buddhists from most, if not all, traditions, tend to succumb to the allure of prayer and supplication; most monasteries are now called "temples", monks are often called "priests", statues of Ganesha and other mythical gods are popular in these places. Some Sri Lankan monasteries actually have dedicated areas for deity worship.
How can they? Well, Buddhism doesn't demand complete adherence to Buddhist principles. I recently taught meditation at a Catholic college to priests and they seemed to gain benefit from it; one of them is planning on coming to do an intensive meditation course with me. So, the question of whether it is "allowed" doesn't really apply. Deity-worship is not recommended, since it promotes delusion and dependency, both of which are antithetical to Buddhism practice. Someone who clings to external support, real or imaginary, will not likely take full responsibility for their future, most likely becoming complacent and clinging to positive experiences as divine intervention (and therefore worth clinging to).
Does it contradict the theory of karma? Yes, and more importantly it goes against observations; praying to gods doesn't produce any observable change except in the mind of the believer. That in and of itself might be reason to promote prayer, since faith can have beneficial, uplifting effects on the mind, if it weren't misplaced and therefore promoting delusion and clinging as well.
So, it is allowed simply because we don't disallow things (except for monks who have strict rules - a monk who encourages theistic worship should be subject to reprimand, I think), but it is (or should be) discouraged because of its relationship to delusion and clinging.
Incidentally, to show how tolerant the Buddha was, in the Ratana Sutta he says:
(Vajrayana) Buddhism is an non-theistic teaching. All deities, yidams etc. are understood to be expressions of one's own nature, one's own mind. At the same time, it is clearly understood that "one's own" mind is not really "one's own" -- because there is no such independent entity as "I", the mind does not have boundaries between outer and inner. From this perspective the energies, deities and other inhabitants of the noosphere can indeed be considered "independent" agents (subject to caveat of universal Emptiness). As part of working on a tantra, practitioner interacts and communicates with the deities, participates in rituals etc. that may look like deity worship but are in fact psychoenergetic exercises. When involved in tantra though, we must clearly see that all these experiences are 100% real, otherwise they will not produce the intended effect on the mind. Because reality is an interpretation we make, being able to sincerely switch between alternative interpretations (materialistic, phenomenological, energy-centric, animalistic) is an important skill to be acquired towards complete mastery of the mind-made reality.
If you pet a cat it will like you. If you respect a king he will reward you. Similarly for Devas. Buddha mentioned Deva Bali offering to the Devas in the context of how to spend what you have earned.
The concept of Deva in Buddhism is that they are just another form of life as mentioned previously.
I agree with catpnosis that a mere belief in gods, as Buddhism understands them, does not entail anything that contradicts the law of kamma. Buddhism holds the view that there is no ruling god who is responsible for everything that happens, but also holds the view that there are great, virtuous, and powerful non-human beings who, on account of merit, have achieved great beauty, long life, and power.
That said, whether or not prayer is advised depends on what you mean by prayer. If you understand prayer to include merely the focusing of one's mind on a deity or some aspect of the deity then even Theravada Buddhism does allow and advocate it, through a practice called the recollection of the devas. One of the ten recollections, virtuous Buddhists are advised to recollect the virtues of the devas and to reflect that they have similar virtues in themselves. See the Mahanama Sutta.
Multiple gods are just living beings, and god (or deva) is type of good birth. So, believing gods is easy—it is just more fortunate world, or life form, than ours. • It does not contradict idea of karma because beings rebirth as gods because of their own wholesome deeds. • Praying to gods is not forbidden as general act, but this is not Buddhist practice. Even though this is not Buddhist practice this does not necessarily contradict the Dharma, it would hugely depend on practitioner attitude and views. But if you pray for salvation or to clean sins this would contradict with karma.
This question doesn't mention which sect.
Modern secular Buddhists are atheists and agnostics. Stephen Batchelor is probably the most famous speaker for this group.
The historical Buddha, may or may not have been a theist. He appears to have been singularly uninterested in Gods, made jokes about them, and saw the whole Hindu enterprise as a distraction from the real problems of existence. Glen Wallis's "Basic Teaching of the Buddha" makes a plausible case for this historical Buddha.
There isn't just one historical Buddha. The historical Buddha is a modern construct made up of half forgotten memories and text filtered through a lot of people. So for the Mahayana crowd, especially devotees of the Lotus Sutra, the historical Buddha was and is, a almost god like being of long life and powers we can't comprehend, who is still alive and an active force in our world.
There is also the Adibuddha and Vairocana, the primordial Buddha or the Buddha from which all other Buddha's are an emination of. This particular Buddha sounds a lot like a Judeo-Christian god.
Finally, Buddhism isn't just what the founder may have said. It's a syncretic tradition that absorbed bits of Hinuism, Bon, Chinese Ancestor worship, Japanese emperor worship, and now in the west it is absorbing new age and Christian elements. This is possible in part because the concerns of the historical Buddha were somewhat orthogonal to the concerns of a devotional religion. The eightfold path is much the same regardless to if you are also engaging in a devotional religion. This differs from say, monotheism, where there are explicit rules about participating in other religions. (Not to say that Buddhism didn't acquire similar rules-- for example Chinese Buddhist text often warn about following outer paths, i.e other religions)
Most Buddhists pray to devas, or gods. Some because of filial piety, particular devotion, family tradition, or any combination of the three (or more) reasons. People also pray to Bodhisattvas and Buddhas in a way that is pretty much indistinguishable from prayer to devas. In Chinese Buddhism, it is a pretty common practice to repent of wrongdoings with Buddhas/Bodhisattvas as witnesses of the promise to do better as well.
Devas are still subject to karma, since the heavenly realm is still within samsara. They can be benevolent, malevolent (although this would cause them to be reborn in a lower realm), or indifferent. They are still powerful, and can protect people. The typical logic is that a person has good karma if for any reason a particular deva takes a liking to them and helps them. In Siddartha's previous lives, he had such good karma that he was protected by devas.
Devotion and supplication to Buddhas and Boddhisattvas may be considered "safer" because they are more consistent with their compassion, while devas have different personalities, which can make them more or less "fickle". Even "wrathful Buddhas" are called so because they are fierce protectors of the dharma and dharmic people.
Institutional Buddhism still respects the individual native devas of particular regions. In one essay contained in the book "Living in Amida's Universal Vow", it was pointed out that some of the earliest "Code of Conduct" rules in Jodo Shinshu temples contained the rules "Do not disparage other Buddhas [besides Amida]" and "Do not disparage the kami ["devas" of Japan]". I do not have the book with me at the moment, but when I find the exact essay I will be more than happy to edit this post with the correct citation.
The GOD concept on Buddhism is a wide scale subject, and according to my understanding Buddhism explain higher spirits who are called "GOD" in English.

THE MORNING OF FEB. 7, Rasheed Kellam had a full schedule.
He picked up his tax-refund check, visited his doctor, cashed the check, checked in with his parole officer, grabbed his blood-pressure medication from Rite Aid and got a hot dog at 7-Eleven.
Then, steps outside his Feltonville home, he got arrested.
For nearly a year, he sat in a city jail, unsure why exactly. In that time, a secret grand jury investigated and eventually indicted him in a home-invasion robbery targeting a couple who lived a half-mile away from him.
An easy alibi
Two months before his trial, prosecutors sent Kellam's lawyer the evidence they had against him - which became the key to his exoneration. As soon as defense lawyer David B. Mischak saw the time of the crime, he dug out Kellam's pharmacy receipt, signature and other proof showing that Kellam couldn't have committed the crime for which he'd been indicted: He'd been picking up his medication when the home invasion happened.
