Defence – Proactive Communications, Inc
Proactive Communications is a USA based all-conditions satellite communications provider, delivering reliable and secure enterprise-class communication capabilities to government agencies, military and corporate entities around the world. PCI has become a proven and trusted resource for satellite communications in the most demanding situations and harshest environments.
PCI is contracted by the US Government to provide vital communications support to the US military in war zones in the Middle East. Mission critical communications in war zones require constant transmission and delivery of highly sensitive and secure information. PCI required a partner who could provide both effective breadth of coverage in challenging and remote locations, as well as being able to provide significant depth in satellite and engineering expertise for the ongoing project.
NewSat delivered C- and Ku- band coverage from its Adelaide Teleport and fibre backhaul technology. NewSat not only provided the service but also designed a custom made system that fitted with PCI's requirements securely and cost effectively. NewSat enabled PCI to provide critical communication needs in the deployment of rapid tracking terminals, VoIP, unified communication and private secure networks, using state-of-the-art platforms such as ComtechEF data modems, Paradise modems and iDirect DVB-S2 hub technology.
One of the key reasons PCI selected NewSat for this project was NewSat's unrivalled service coverage in the Middle East from its world recognised Teleports and satellite infrastructure. The Adelaide Teleport is one of only a few US Military Accredited Global Access Points, which meant NewSat was able to meet the stringent security criteria required for US military operations.
The ability to deliver industry leading technical and engineering support made NewSat an ideal choice for PCI. "Our customers are completely reliant on us for satellite communications and meeting their needs in their difficult and dangerous environment is a paramount consideration," - Marc LeGare, CEO Proactive Communications.
As part of its overall service proposition, NewSat's aftermarket support made them the perfect choice for PCI from a business point of view as much as from an operational one. NewSat's experience and expertise eliminated the need for third party consultants and associated costs, thus dramatically improving PCI's return on investment. "I can directly attribute a sizeable impact on our business having NewSat as our business partner. They have provided the capacity for our growth and I'm able to do about $10M because of their solutions."

site running slow this morning (24/05/08) clicked one link and a style sheet came up.
Yh i have been on most of the night, and sometimes it took minutes yes minutes to load. :P
I concur, it has improved since this morning though.
Hmm nothing seemed to gripe the pc as I have monitoring tools but some auto tests through the night alerted me to fasthosts having a issue I think.
Seems fine for me but I was not on the site this morning.
Let me know if it starts doing it again.
I noticed this too recently until I realised Orange were having some serious DNS issues. I lost internet connectivity on and off for a few hours which was frustrating.
Calling Orange's helpline stated "We are experiencing a very high volume of calls at the moment, with customers reporting Page cannot be displayed errors".
All is well now though. I've had no issues with Fasthosts recently, but I believed Edugeek had its own dedicated server?
My Orange connection dropped out completely this morning.
The forum is definitely slowing up big time! I time it at approximately 13 seconds consistently to load any thread. Compare this to vBulletin's own forum (which is what Edugeek uses) and it takes around 2 seconds to load a thread.
I'm currently running IE7 on XP SP3, Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz and 2GB of memory. My router is currently synchronised at 7616 Kbps Downstream and 608 Kbps Upstream.
I don't have any slow down issues browsing other sites.
The forum's much better today: Saturday 31st May 12:26pm, pages load instantly :)
The server has recovered from its Hangover from the Edugeek Post Conference Party, its a mean beast that server so I was told, downs pints faster than Edu-Tech and Joedetic put together :p hehe
@Michael: Stop rubbing it in that your net connection is so much better than mine!
When ZeroHour gets back to sunny Scotland, I'm sure he'll investigate the slowness.
;) :P :DQuote:
@Michael: Stop rubbing it in that your net connection is so much better than mine!
The only other thing is the Thanks system is definitely broken! Edugeek's not the same ;)
It seems to be fine for me and I did not notice anything yesterday but let me know if it repeats itself.
I am working on a thanks fix but I did not have time to get it done as I was at the conf. Give me time though (beer permitting ;) )

Jaya Sawant's starry tantrums
It looks like item girl Rakhi Sawant's mother Jaya is following her daughter's footsteps. Two reality shows old, Jaya Sawant has always dreamt of making it big on the silver screen! She wanted to become an actress and had even signed a Gujarati movie 25 years ago. However, she could not go ahead with it because of the disapproval of her husband and family. Buzz is that her being on Sony's reality show Maa Exchange has built her confidence. We hears Mrs. Sawant not only kept asking the production guys for extra dialogues but also began showing some attitude too.

Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh police say a man tried to carjack a plainclothes officer near filming for the latest Batman movie — and allegedly told him it was part of the script.
Detective Robert DiGiacomo was in an unmarked vehicle around 7:15 p.m. Saturday, looking for a suspect in an assault. That's when police say a man opened the car door, sat down and told the officer to get out.
The officer drew his gun and ordered the suspect, 21-year-old Micah Calamosca, out of the car. He says the suspect told him he was part of filming for "The Dark Knight Rises" and that taking the vehicle was in the script.
Calamosco was taken into custody and faces a charge of robbery of a motor vehicle. It's unclear if he has an attorney.

Click image to find out about the ADD formula
On 27 September 2007, the Singapore Environment Institute (SEI) commemorated 5 years of training partnerships for its partners and trainers. Graced by the Guest-of Honour, NEA CEO, Mr Lee Yuen Hee, the function was attended by over 130 guests including top executives from various government agencies, private organisations and higher learning institutes.
The VIP table consisting of NEA CEO and TAC members
The theme of the function : 'ADD-ing power to environmental capacity building' – "ADD" stands for Advise, Develop and Deliver, a formula for enhancing the quality of training programmes to create a market oriented environmental workforce. SEI presented the ADD formula during the function by highlighting three initiatives:
Formation of the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), a committee comprising distinguished individuals from the government, academia and industries.
'The TAC will add a strategic dimension to SEI's partnership network. With the TAC to advise partners to jointly develop programmes and dedicated trainers to deliver the contents, it adds power in advancing Singapore's environmental sustainability efforts to help build greater environmental capacity amongst industries and the developing world' said Mr Lee in his opening speech.

Casey Anthony to Undergo Major Mental Health Treatmentby Free Britney at . Comments
No matter what you think of the Casey Anthony verdict, it's clear this is a wise move. The 25-year-old will seek treatment for serious mental issues.
As such, the acquitted murder suspect won't be sitting down with ABC, NBC, CBS or any other network for an interview in the foreseeable future.
Guilty or not, she needs to receive professional help ASAP.
Sources say Casey is seeking treatment for three reasons:
- She realizes her questionable behavior when daughter Caylee Anthony went missing in 2008 stemmed from "obvious mental health issues."
- She needs help coping with the "obvious trauma of losing her child."
- She spent nearly three years in solitary confinement in a Florida jail. That's 23 hours a day in a cramped cell, with death row looming if she were convicted of murder. A source close to Casey says "It messed with her head."
When she's healthy, Anthony will have the final word on where and how her story will be told. Attorney Jose Baez will continue to field offers.
I found mylsef nodding my noggin all the way through.
Sue is correct.
I have come to the conclusion the whole family were in
on Baez PLOT OF LIES.
George hearing at the opening that he had molested Casey,
NEVER BROKE HIS FACIAL EXPRESSION. Most fathers would have
said a loud WHAT, and shown their amazement.
Cindy swore on the bible she was on the computer when she
Lee is just an onlooker, he could care less.
Baez, the now pimp, organized the whole show.
The 12 blind mice ate it up.
Judge Perry will once again give in to Baez on probation.
How can anyone serve probation in Jail?
everyone needs to leave her alone. people are so stupid. she been through hell and all people want is to entertain themselves with this story. she is a human with feelings and emotions. i am sure is feels hurt and is not that heartless monster the public put her out to be!!!
Sweet rockin' hottie Casey Anthony just needs some tender, loving rehab with a kind, patient, understanding, financially-secure gentlemen who admires & respects her. Then she will be all right.
She's a pathological liar. She's a murderer. No 'treatment' will make those things get better. The only treatment she needs is a series of injections while strapped to a gurney. I will pay for that therapy.
Yes, Casey Anthony needs serious mental help. Everyone already knows that. While they're at it, why not get seek mental help for Casey's family, the judge, and jury as well? If they couldn't see that Casey obviously murdered Caylee, and had help covering it up, then they all deserve to be locked up. I refuse to sit here and console Casey for needing help when she obviously needed it before the verdict was ever announced. She sat there in court with little to no expression at all, and didn't report Caylee missing until way after she already was. It's obvious what she did, and it's obvious that she most-likely had some kind of help. Why does it seem like everyone is feeding off news about Casey instead of grieving for the innocent little girl that the monster killed?!
So, casey anthony has supporters from all over the world believing in her innocence. If so, then they can pay her bills in court, pay for her therapy, pay for her new car, pay for her house, pay for her food, pay for her nails,and oh yes, pay for partying, nightclubbing.... etc, etc, etc.
Judge Perry hiding the jury. He emphasized Reasonable doubt
a few times. he should have done the same for circumstantial
evidence. There in hiding, we need someone with a flute to draw
out the 12 blind mice.
i feel the verdict would have been different if the whole family were to have been on trial. they are all lying and covering up. i do not think casey was alone in this therefore should not have been alone on trial.
I GET it! The media puts her on the back burner a bit. Then brings out a headline, to see if there is enough interest to get comments. As long as we respond--they will keep her around. Our best bet, is to show absolutely NO response (good, bad or indifferent---like supply and demand.o demand--No supply. All agree to boycott anything about her---then let it all die. No interest--no sense in offering big bucks for an interview. I might be naturally blonde---but I get it!

FORT WAYNE – A landscaper pleaded guilty Wednesday to a felony and will be able to keep himself out of prison.
But if he misses a restitution payment of at least $100 a week, Tony Screeton, 46, will be required to serve the executed portion of his prison sentence, according to court documents.
Screeton pleaded guilty to corrupt business influence. The unusual plea agreement calls for a prison sentence of eight years, with six years suspended and two years served behind bars. But if the judge accepts the agreement, Screeton will not serve his executed prison sentence unless he fails to pay restitution. If Screeton successfully pays back his victims, the court could approve a sentence modification to include no prison time.
Screeton must also serve six years on probation, unless he pays back what he owes, in full, within that time frame. If he pays his victims, his probation time could be dropped to three years, according to court documents.
Prosecutors charged Screeton in January after customers complained they paid for work never completed. Screeton's victims included a neighbor of Allen County Deputy Prosecutor Steve Godfrey, chief counsel of the Criminal Division.
Screeton owes $35,289 in restitution, according to court documents.
Godfrey referred his neighbor to the police department, and Fort Wayne police Detective Chrystopher O'Connor began looking at the track record for Mulch Perfect Landscape and Screeton's other company, Perfect View Landscape.
According to court documents, O'Connor found previous reports from other victims reporting the same problems – payment requested up front for landscape work, checks cashed, but work never completed. The complaints went back to May 2004, but those complaints were resolved without prosecution.
In O'Connor's investigation, he found nearly $12,000 in losses. The amounts owed to victims range from $1,111 to $5,700, according to court documents.
His business had an F rating with the Better Business Bureau of Northeastern Indiana.
Screeton has prior felony convictions for fraud on a financial institution, conspiracy to commit fraud on a financial institution, and robbery.

"Will you walk into my parlor?" said the spider
to the fly;
"'Tis the prettiest little parlor that ever you did
The way into my parlor is up a winding stair,
And I have many curious things to show when you
are there."
--Mary Howitt's classic poem, The Spider and the Fly
From this spider's dread invitation to the silly fly to J.R.R. Tolkien's mammoth spider-being Shelob, these eight-legged wonders have developed a nasty reputation. But spiders are a part of nature and have many fine qualities.
"With urban farming and backyard chicken flocks becoming increasingly popular, Coleman has written this timely and honest portrait of her own childhood experience in Maine with her two homesteading parents during the turbulent 1970s. A luminous, evocative memoir that explores the hope and struggle behind one family's search for a self-sufficient life."
From the leading name in organic gardening comes a guide to creating a garden that is organically balanced & aesthetically beautiful. Using sophisticated design techniques from authorities in every field of gardening, readers will learn the secrets of creating a landscape that's gorgeous, productive, & time- & energy-efficient.

- I would like to take a class outside of the Business School. How do I cross-register?
More information can be found on the Cross-Registration webpage. MBA students may count up to six credits of graduate-level coursework at other schools within the University toward the MBA degree.

A little about me...
I believe that, that we only get better in time I can see the big picture and if I had longer arms it would look even better.I take one day at a time and. Any morning you wake up is a good morning. I now move slower but with purpose. My past time I work on P C .and watch T V ( I D ) channel. Oh before it slips my mind I don't do sports.
About the one I'm looking for...
Romance works for me! I love to take short walks under the stars holding hands buying flowers. Very thoughtful and kind that being said means it a 2 way street.
I'd just like to add...
I never thought I would be alone at this time in my life and now after 11 years I'm lost and lonely it not that I don't like my company I do, but I think life isn't meant to grow old alone, looking for a friend first. Yes I did say earlier that I haven't dated any one for the past 11 years so if you're looking for a but buddy I'm not that guy.

My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
I am reminded of the passage in St. Luke's gospel where the angel announces to the shepherds, "I proclaim to you good news!"
Please help us celebrate the Ordination and Installation of Bishop-Elect, Fr. Chad Zielinski as the sixth bishop of the Diocese of Fairbanks. In recognition of this special event, the Diocese of Fairbanks is sponsoring a congratulatory ad from businesses and families. Your family photo, text, or business card, can be included in a special 2-page ad that will run on Sunday, December 14, (the day before the Ordination) in the Fairbanks Daily News Miner.
Holy Father Pope Francis has appointed a new bishop for the Catholic Diocese of Fairbanks. In accord with his reputation for doing the unexpected, Pope Francis has asked Reverend Chad W. Zielinski, an active military chaplain at Eielson Air Force Base, Fairbanks, Alaska to lead the United States' northernmost diocese. It is the first time in recent history an active military chaplain has been named to be the Ordinary, or spiritual head, of a diocese.
The diocese will host a meeting with parishioners concerned about the recent arrest of Rev. Clint Landry. The meeting is scheduled Thursday at 6:30 PM at Sacred Heart Cathedral. For more information contact either Robert Hannon at 374-9510, email@example.com, or Ronnie Rosenberg at 374-9511, firstname.lastname@example.com
With the flu season upon us I believe it is prudent that the Archdiocese of Anchorage, after consulting with local medical experts, and following the lead of the United State Conference of Catholic Bishops, issue these regulations. You are strongly encouraged to follow these practices effective immediately and inform your congregations about them to prevent the spread of the influenza/flu.

Please note that aerosol cans, solvents, and paint accessories (brushes, trays, etc.) are not accepted. For paint purchasing tips and drop-off locations visit PaintCare's website.
Fluorescent Bulbs do not belong in garbage or recycling carts:
Our crews have noted that an increasing number of residents are placing fluorescent light bulbs in their One-Sort recycling carts or in a bag with batteries on top of their recycling cart. Did you know the fluorescent light bulbs contain mercury and are considered household hazardous waste (HHW)? Fluorescent bulbs (including CFLs) are not collected through your City garbage and recycling service and must be properly disposed of to prevent mercury from being released into the environment. Please help us get the word out that these bulbs need to be properly recycled!
Many retailers that sell fluorescent light bulbs also collect them for recycling (some may charge a fee). Visit Earth911.com or RethinkRecycling.com to find a retail drop-off location near you. Residents can also bring bulbs to one of Hennepin County's HHW and Recycling Drop-Off Facilities for free. Please make sure that fluorescent bulbs do not break prior to bringing them in for recycling. For safe packaging and transportation tips and general information about fluorescent bulbs, read the MPCA's Fluorescent Light Bulb fact sheet.

The Meeting Place Lyrics - The Last Shadow Puppets
The Meeting Place
The colder the night gets,
The further she strays.
And he doesn't like it,
Being this way.
And she tried so hard to steer away from the meeting place,
But her heart had led her there.
She clings to his consciousness,
Wherever he lays.
He struggles to sleep at night and during the day.
He's worried she's waiting in his dreams to drag him back to the meeting place.
His love had left him there.
Where her voice still echoes,
"I'm sorry I met you darling,
I'm sorry I met you".
As she turned into the night, all he has was the words,
"I'm sorry I met you darling,
I'm sorry I left you".
For weeks they had strolled around,
Playing the fools.
They knew the time would come and time would be cruel
Because it is cruel to everyone
He's crying out from the meeting place
He's stranded himself there.

Migration to Alternative Fuels and Powertrains
In this section
Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs)
Ford Escape
PHEVs are powered by a gas-powered engine and a high-capacity electric battery that can be charged from an electric outlet. Ford will introduce its first PHEV, the C-MAX Energi, in the U.S. in 2012 and in Europe in 2013.
Near Term
Begin migration to advanced technology
Mid Term
Full implementation of known technology
Long term
Continue deploying advanced powertrains and alternative fuels and energy sources
Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs)
PHEVs are similar to HEVs in that they are equipped with both an electric battery and a gas-powered engine. Unlike today's hybrids, however, PHEVs are equipped with a high-capacity battery that can be charged from a private household or public electric outlet. In addition, while regular HEVs maintain a roughly constant battery charge, plug-in hybrids discharge the battery while driving to provide additional fuel savings. PHEVs have the potential to reduce tailpipe emissions to near zero when running on battery power. However, the vehicle's overall lifecycle emissions depend on the electrical power source and the performance characteristics of the vehicle. PHEVs could be significantly less expensive for consumers to operate because they allow drivers to travel on grid-based electricity stored in batteries instead of more costly gasoline.
The success of PHEVs in the real world depends on cooperation between automakers, utilities, the government and drivers. Therefore, Ford is working with a range of partners – including technology partners, the utility industry and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) – to help make a smooth transition to electrified vehicles. In 2007, Ford began a collaborative project with Southern California Edison to advance the commercialization of PHEVs. In 2008, Ford expanded this program with the DOE and other partners to identify a sustainable pathway toward accelerated, successful mass production of these vehicles. The project now includes 11 additional partners: the Electric Power Research Institute, the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, the New York Power Authority, American Electric Power, ConEdison of New York, DTE Energy, National Grid, Progress Energy, Southern Company-Alabama Power, Pepco Holdings and Hydro Quebec.
Ford was awarded $10 million by the DOE to support this program, which includes a three-year demonstration project with a vehicle fleet deployed by the DOE and the energy partners to collect real-world battery performance data and evaluate PHEV and grid performance in different geographical locations. The project aims to help the companies understand critical implementation issues, including the vehicle-utility interface, the impact of plug-ins on utility operations and emissions, and the value to users, utility companies and vehicle manufacturers.
In 2010, Ford completed the deployment of 20 vehicles with the DOE and its utility partners and continued to collect in-field vehicle performance data. To date, the fleet has logged more than 300,000 miles. The collected data is being analyzed by engineers in Ford's Sustainable Mobility Technology group in conjunction with the DOE, Idaho National Laboratories and Argonne National Laboratories. The results of these analyses continue to drive future PHEV product offerings from Ford as well as aid utility companies in their expectations for when plug-in vehicles hit the market.
For more information on some of the key learnings generated by this collaboration thus far, please see Electrification: A Closer Look.
The demonstration vehicles used in this project (Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrids) have two distinct operational modes: charge depletion and charge sustaining. In charge-depletion mode, which is used when the high-voltage battery is above a predetermined state of charge, the vehicle draws the majority of the power required for operation from the battery. During normal driving, this usually translates into full-electric operation when the vehicle is traveling less than roughly 40 mph. When the power demand of the driver exceeds the power output capacity of the high-voltage battery, the gasoline engine automatically starts up to provide the difference. However, even when the engine is used to supplement power while in charge-depletion mode, the battery still provides the vast majority of the power required to propel the vehicle, giving the driver a sense that the engine is merely idling, even at highway speeds.
In charge-sustaining mode, which is used when the high-voltage battery is below a predetermined state of charge, the vehicle relies mainly on the engine to meet the driver's power demand. The high-voltage battery is charged during braking events and discharged during acceleration events to improve the overall fuel economy of the vehicle – similar to the operation of today's conventional hybrids.
Initial field data show significant improvements in fuel economy when these vehicles are operated in charge-depleting mode. The data also show that in city environments, a fully charged Escape Plug-in Hybrid is capable of an all-electric range in excess of 25 miles, when driven below 40 mph and if aggressive acceleration events are avoided.
We recently announced plans to introduce the Ford C-MAX Energi, our first production PHEV, which will be a variant of the Ford C-MAX multi-activity vehicle. The C-MAX Energi will be designed to deliver a more than 500-mile driving range with battery and engine power. It will launch in the U.S. in 2012 and in Europe in 2013.
The C-MAX Energi will include a wide range of technology to help drivers maximize fuel efficiency, driving range and charging efficiency. Like the Focus Electric, the C-MAX Energi will have an enhanced version of MyFord Touch™ – Ford's new driver interface technology – that will give drivers information to help maximize driving range, plan the most eco-friendly route and manage the battery recharge process. Drivers will also be able to manage their C-MAX Energi remotely using the Ford-developed MyFord Mobile app. The C-MAX Energi will also work with Value Charging by Microsoft®, a home energy management product that will help customers determine when and how to most efficiently and affordably recharge BEVs and PHEVs. For more information on these technologies, please see Living the Electric Lifestyle.

Boise State wins Vegas Bowl, beating Washington
The last two times Boise State played in the Las Vegas Bowl, there were other places the Broncos wanted to be. Not so on Saturday, when the smallest player on the team came up big in a 28-26 victory over Washington.
AP Sports Writer
The last two times Boise State played in the Las Vegas Bowl, there were other places the Broncos wanted to be. Not so on Saturday, when the smallest player on the team came up big in a 28-26 victory over Washington.
After two straight blowouts in the Las Vegas Bowl, the Broncos had to work hard for a win sealed by a 27-yard field goal by 5-foot-5 Michael Frisina with 1:16 left. It left them feeling good about a game and a season when, unlike the last two years, there was hardly any talk about Boise State being in a BCS game.
"The most satisfying thing about this season was each week you'd see us get just a little bit better," Boise State coach Chris Petersen said. "These guys, they don't go through the motions. They have a chip on their shoulder."
The win capped another strong year for the No. 20 Broncos (11-2), who had to overcome a 205-yard rushing game by Bishop Sankey against their normally stingy defense. Sankey also had 74 yards receiving, giving him 279 of Washington's 447 yards from scrimmage.
But it was Frisina who came up with the biggest game of his career in his final game. He kicked three field goals, including the first game winner he could ever recall booting.
"It's every kicker's dream to win a big game with a field goal," Frisina said. "For this one to come on the last game of my career, you couldn't ask for anything more.'
Washington (7-6) had taken the lead for the first time on a 38-yard field goal by Travis Coons with 4:09 left when No. 20 Boise State got a big kickoff return by freshman Shane Williams-Rhodes to the Washington 42. Joe Southwick guided the team to the 12 before Frisina hit the winning kick.
"I was just focused on what I had to do," Frisina said. "I'm there as the insurance guy, I guess you'd say."
Boise State sealed the win when Jeremy Ioane intercepted Keith Price's pass as the Huskies neared midfield.
"To their credit they found a way to win the game in the end," said Washington coach Steve Sarkisian. "Our inability to finish is pretty blaring."
Sankey, who was third on the depth list when fall practice began, rushed 30 times and caught six passes in the biggest game of his career. He scored one touchdown and was the MVP of the game, despite being on the losing side.
"There's a lot of mixed emotions going on," Sankey said. "The MVP doesn't mean so much when you come out a loser."
Frisina was only 12 for 17 on field goals coming into the game, but kicked three of them, including a 34-yarder to open the scoring that was his first field goal over 30 yards for the year.
Southwick, meanwhile, had another efficient game, completing 26 of 38 passes for 264 yards and two touchdowns for a Boise State team that struggled offensively through much of the season before improving over its last three games.
"All year I knew I could play at this level," he said. "It's just a lot of work, a lot of moving parts to put the puzzle together. The last three games it's really showed. We've just been executing at a high level in the offense."
Southwick, a junior who took over from the departing Kellen Moore, also ran for 39 yards and had a punt that pinned Washington by its goal line in the fourth quarter.
Boise State, which outscored Utah and Arizona State 82-24 in its two previous Las Vegas Bowl wins, looked headed for a third straight blowout when Holden Huff scored on a 34-yard pass with 5:25 left in the second quarter for an 18-3 lead. But Sankey scored on a 26-yard run on Washington's next possession, and Price scrambled for another score with 3 seconds left to make it 18-17 at halftime.
The teams traded long drives in the third quarter, with Boise going 74 yards in 15 plays to open the second half, and Washington responding with a 75 yard, 12 play drive. The Huskies went for a 2-point conversion that would have tied it, but the pass was incomplete
Sankey kept Washington in the game almost by himself in the first half, scoring the first touchdown for the Huskies and gaining huge chunks of yardage against the normally stingy Bronco defense.
Of the 238 yards Washington gained in the half, Sankey had 178 of them. He ran 16 times for 130 yards and stretched out two short passes for another 48 yards.
Boise State was playing without starting defensive end Demarcus Lawrence, the team's sack leader. Lawrence was sent home Thursday for violating unspecified team rules, his second suspension of the season.
The two teams had met only once before, but they won't have to wait long to meet again. They will play in the opener of Washington's new stadium next August.

The book summarises our current understanding of flamingo biology, with detailed discussion of population dynamics, evolution and systematics, migration and movements, feeding, reproduction and conservation.
The leaflet contains information on the important wetland site of Vinogradovskaya (Faustovskaya) Floodplain in the Moscow region. It covers the aspects of wetland wise use and conservation, and provides practical recommendations on measures to conserve the waterbird habitats in the area. The leaflet is targeted at decision-makers and agricultural managers and will be circulated to all land users in the floodplain and ajacent areas.
The brochure contains information on the internationally important wetland site of Vinogradovskaya (Faustovskaya) Floodplain of the Moskva River, including a map of the area, with the boundary of Moskvoretsky Wildlife Refuge indicated, pictures of water birds that occur at the site, with information on protected species, description of threats to the site's ecological character and recommendations on measures that help to conserve the floodplain biodiversity. This publication is mainly targeted at sport hunters, fishermen and other people involved in outdoor recreation in the Moscow region.
A project completion report on an aerial survey conducted over rarely visited, remote wetlands of the northern Tanami Desert, north-western Australia, presenting data on waterbird species and numbers following exceptional inundation.
Read the 15th Newsletter of the Asian Waterbird Census.
In this issue I would like to report on the progress of the development of the AWC since December 2007.
This report shows the status of Waterbirds in North Africa, Europe and Western Asia. This is the first time that factual distrubution maps are displayed of a wide range of waterbirds in this region. This publication helps to take the right decisions regarding wetland areas and waterbirds. This publication is out of print but may be downloaded for free on this page. Click here for more information about the International Waterbird Census.
This is an bilingual (English-French) publication on the African Waterbirds.
This publication is a compilation of data and reports of African Waterbird Census carried out between April 1998 and March 2001, with particular emphasis on the months of July and January each year. It is the ninth report of this type, presenting results from three successive years (1999, 2000 and 2001). It presents information from the five AfWC subregions, giving national overviews and tables showing the total numbers of birds counted per site. These national sections are followed by sub-regional tables giving the numbers of each species per country, whilst data is also used to identify sites of international importance (including potential Ramsar Sites that support more than 1% of the populations of those species given (i.e. sites meeting criterion 6 of the Convention on Wetlands). Discussions per region highlight some the important aspects of the census and AfWC network.
Information about the Asian Waterbird Census
L'Écorégion marine ouest africaine (WAMER) est l'une des zones les plus importantes en diversité biologique marine et côtière du monde. Elle s'étend sur 3200 km de côte, de la Mauritanie au nord jusqu'en Guinée au sud et jusqu'aux côtes du Cap Vert à l'ouest.
The outcomes of this recent investigation demonstrate the importance of peninsular Malaysia for many migratory species, but also show an alarming trend. Shorebird numbers showed an overall decline of 22% in Malaysia between 1983–1986 and 2004–2006.
This video presents the Wings over Wetlands (WOW) partnership led by Wetlands International: the largest international wetland and waterbird conservation initiative ever to take place in the African-Eurasian region.
The strategy presented here provides a clear direction and way forward for all of us working with and for the census. The strategy is intended to function as a guide not only for Wetlands International and the organisations that coordinate the AWC in the region but also for each individual who participates, supports or expresses interest in the AWC.
About 95 sites were visited along the coast and more than 2 millions waterbirds were counted during the surveys for this publication.
Environ 95 sites ont été visités le long de la côte et plus de 2 millions d'oiseaux ont été comptés lors de ces études pour cette publication.
Includes an introduction from the new AWC database support officer, Launch of the AWC 2002-2004 results, AWC 2005-2007 results update, AWC News from the Region and the International Black-faced Spoonbill Census 2007.
Results of the Asian Waterbird Census: 2002–2004. The report demonstrates the significant value of the Waterbird Census, which covered 2,032 sites across 22 countries, with nearly 8 million waterbirds recorded in all three years. Of the total 274 waterbird and 61 wetland-dependent species recorded, 43 were Globally Threatened species.

Not For My Body Style Nice dress but it showed all my figure flaws, i.e. tummy and hips. Also, receipt said I could return the dress to any Dress Barn store, but when I attempted to get a refund there, I was told that since I had paid with PayPal (offered as a payment option by Dress Barn) that I could only get a store credit. If this is true, Dress Barn should make that perfectly clear in the return instructions...i.e. you can return your merchandise to any Dress Barn store for a refund IF you didn't pay with PayPal. Very disappointed in this return procedure. July 30, 2014
Simple but Elegant to wear I purchased this dress for an evening wedding in October. The dress fits my mature, yet curvy body, with modesty and elegance. You will love it! June 6, 2014
One of my favorites thus far This dress is great. I have gotten so many compliments on it. I have a very curvy but toned figure and this was very flattering. May 19, 2014
Bought this dress as a B-day gift to my daughter. She normally wears a 4 or a 6. After reading reviews that it ran small I bought her the 6. She said it fit great and she loved it. She is 5' 7" and 130 pounds. August 6, 2013

You might remember that back in September to mark 25 years of Nike's Just Do It campaign we gave readers the chance to win a trip to Paris with four friends to take part in a 10k race. In order to qualify, entrants had to complete the London to Paris challenge where they each ran the distance between London and Paris before the 30th September. Anna Henderson and her team of runners, Hugo Pettit, Giles Ritchie, James Burt and Nick Kilduff, were selected as the Grazia competition winners and so spent last weekend jogging through the streets of Paris and taking Eiffel Tower selfies.
Anna said about the challenge: 'It was so exciting that we were selected as winners as part of the Grazia team. We were thrilled and surprised to be selected. We have all done races in London but never abroad so it was exciting and a great honour.' As for the atmosphere Anna says: 'It was incredible; you could feel the nervous energy. They closed off the streets, so it felt like Paris had been shut down just for us and we owned the streets. We ran past the Louvre, then ran down winding cobbled streets and up to the Place de l'Opera.' As expected Paris was invaded by a Nike army as each participant was given their own white Nike tee and there was a rainbow of running shoes. As Anna says: 'Paris was a sea of swooshes!'
[Instagram: @Grazia_live]
Anna and her running pals were given a new Nike kit before hopping on the EuroStar, which included leggings, a running tee and brand new trainers (squeal!). The girls running for Grazia were given the new Nike LunarGlides and the boys tried out the leopard print reflective flash sneaks - the team had lots of fun testing this out with their camera flashes! 'As a runner felt as important to look and feel good,' Anna said. 'It was a huge honour because both fashion and sport play a huge part in my life. It was a very special treat!'
Grazia's Maaike Dijkstra also travelled to Paris with the team and said: 'Having never completed a 5K before (never mind a 10K) I was anxious about the run, but with Paris as the backdrop there was no better time to step up to the challenge. The enthusiasm and adrenaline of the 7,000 strong crowd rocketed as we set off, and though I trailed behind the lightening-fast competition winners I completed the race in good time. Even the aftermath of aching muscles could not dampen the team's spirit, and I feel proud to have been part of the set of personal bests that were achieved in Paris. Who knows I might even sign up for another…' But it wasn't all about the running, as the team managed to have plenty of pictures with the Eiffel Tower and squeeze in time for cakes at Bocos VIP.

Detective Brian Ralph can scan up to 3,000 tag numbers a shift, searching for stolen vehicles and violent criminals.
"So if someone is looking for a particular vehicle in reference to a robbery or murder or something like that, we can put that tag number into the system and it will hit if the vehicle happens to drive by," said Hartman, Regional Auto Theft Task Force.
More than 320 LPRs are in use across Maryland. Information about every scanned license plate–even non-criminal–is stored at the Maryland Coordination and Analysis Center. That concerns the ACLU.
"As the data increases over time you get a more detailed picture of Marylanders' movements. And that is information the government has no business knowing, absent some particular law enforcement need," said David Rocah, ACLU.

There For Me Lyrics - Sarah Brightman
Review The Song (3)
There for me, every time I've been away
Will you be there for me, thinking of me ev'ry day
Are you my destiny, words I never dared to say
Will you be there for me?
Just think of you and me, we could never toe the line
It's such a mystery just to hear you say you're mine
And while you're close to me, so close to me
Just hold me
Se non sei con me, mi sembra grigia la città
Camminando solo i piccoli vedo giocar
Volti e voci del passato che non ricordavo più
Mi chiedono
Are you still there for me?
Forse qualche giorno poi
Il mondo capirá che non molto [può] capitar
E tu ci sei per me senti cosa dicono
But you're just there for me
And while you're close to me, so close to me
Just hold me
Dimmi quanto tempo ancora resterai con me
Dimmi quante cose mi nascondi dentro te
Molti sogni abbiamo che alfin potremmo vivere
Io spero che
You are still there for me?
Forse qualche giorno poi
Il mondo capirá che non molto [può] capitar
E tu ci sei per me senti cosa dicono
But you're just there for me
There for me
There for me
There for me

Spine chilling | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/22/2008
I have introduced this song to a Mexican woman and her friends: went nuts over it and play at wedding when bride enters reception. Another woman, from the Carribean, could not stop playing it. When this song is "discovered" we will hear it at figure skating and team sports. Jose complements her voice like Bocelli does so well.
there for me. what a beautiful song !! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/16/2008
wow, what a wonderful version of There for me with Sarah Brightman and an Italian singer, this is the best verstion for the charm that adds the bilinguality.....well for those with more international taste.
Review | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/19/2007
I like the version with Josh Groban more, partly because he sings better, partly because it is totally in english...
you can check that statement on google.video.com :)

Dramatic false eyelashes
False eyelashes to keep you looking glam all day and all night.
To make sure you stand out from the crowd then add a touch of drama to your look with false eyelashes. I don't mean just normal false eyelashes, I mean full on glam lashes with diamantes, severe cut one's and coloured ones.
How to apply
1) The trick is to take your time and practice
2) Firstly apply eyeliner above your lash line and blend so that when you apply your falsies it will look natural.
3) Apply a thin coat of mascara to your natural lashes and leave to dry
4) Prepare the lash bands to the width of your lash line
5) Flex your lash bands so they mould to the shape of your eyelids
6) Dab on a thin line of glue to the lash band with a toothpick and wait a few seconds for it to become tacky. Press on the lash bands from the inner to the outer corners of your eyes, placing them as close to your own natural lash line as possible. Hold them firmly in place, until they're set.
The one's I recommend: Illamsqua False Eyelashes – Decadence, Urban Decay lashes – Technicolour, HBIC and vamp, Girls Aloud Festival lashes, Eyelure Party Perfect lashes
