The New York City art world in post-war America was dominated by the rise of Abstract Expressionist painting. Led by iconic painters like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and Willem de Kooning, abstract painting and its theoretical exponents tended to be an exclusive man's club. However, there were several female painters who emerged during the late fifties and early sixties who are now recognized for their creative talents and artistic output. One of these pioneering figures was Joan Mitchell, a painter whose gestural works often hang upon the same museum walls today as her better known male counterparts. This documentary weaves together a strong and personal portrait of her life as a midcentury painter working through her romantic relationships and the frustrating battles with the gender politics of the art world. She spent much of her life in France, finding inspiration from nature and the physical universe.

text: This crystal clear representation of a canoe docked on the shore of Osgood Pond in the Adirondack Mountains is absolutely riveting. The presence of the canoe makes it more than just a beautiful scene by giving it focus and shape. The most important details in the picture are the lines of the boat, and how they are echoed and reinforced by the slender trees, the shoreline and the mountain in the distance.

As of Tuesday morning Hurricane Rafael was centered at 26.6 N, 65.0 W, or about 395 miles south of Bermuda. The storm had sustained winds of 85 mph and was moving to the north at 16 mph.
Rafael is expected to track north then northeast and track parallel to, but well offshore of the east coast this week as a category 1 hurricane. The current track would have no impact on eastern Carolina, save a few bigger swells along the beaches late Tuesday through Thursday.

Shock is a state of profound depression of the vital functions of the body. It can be caused by any serious injury. A person experiencing shock will be pale and have cool, clammy skin. Their pulse will be weak and rapid, and they may exhibit confused behavior, anxiety or excitedness. You can do any or all of the following to help the person in a state of shock, but most of all, seek medical help as quickly as possible.
Snakes are more active during warm weather. If you are bitten by a snake, the best thing to do is sit down and stay calm. Try to identify the snake - not all snakes are poisonous. Apply a cold pack to the bite if possible, and seek medical assistance immediately.

One of the things that excites me about the Creative Cloud is the tools that are available. So no longer do we have to wait 12 or 18 months for a brand new tool. When Adobe comes up with this technology, we can get it. So now that we've got into using Creative Cloud, the stuff that we were excited about when we heard about it is actually helping our business grow, being able to review mock ups and comps and being able to have all those assets dumped into the same database is really helpful for us, and we don't really have to be worried about who has what version and all that stuff. It gives us every single Adobe application with 1 subscription fee. It's convenient for us. One designer will upload something to Cloud. Another designer will take that, maybe add some typography, reupload it, and then I'll take a look at it as a creative director and give it my thumbs up or thumbs down, and I can easily access any of my designers' work simply by logging into the Creative Cloud. I think the Creative Cloud is 1 of the biggest advancements for creators. You log onto the Creative Cloud site and you see all the things you can download, programs that you never would have tried before now right there at your finger tips. Also the fact that they keep growing. I get those changes as Adobe develops them. I didn't have to wait. I didn't have to pay. It's just part of my Creative Cloud membership. I think that's really cool. As an independent film maker, the pricing model of the Creative Cloud is 1 of the greatest draws. Nowadays, the film makers have to be responsible for every little aspect, even into the things you shouldn't have to be, like how to web site. So for me to be able to say, "Okay, I'm going to pay this 1 rate every month, and not only that--" when the new versions come out, they're going to update. Adobe Creative Cloud certainly expands my business, coming just from a print background. I've always wanted to get into web design. With the Cloud, I was able to have access to Adobe Muse, Dream Weaver, Adobe Edge, Animate, which probably I would have never been able to use before having to pay for the software. It was nice to start to learn these programs and understand how that process works for mobile devices, for tablets, for desktop applications. Now I'm able to do everything under 1 roof. It's keeping me busy. Why is the Cloud cool? Well, it's got a cool logo, I'll give them that. The first thing I saw this thing open, it was all there. It's kind of like seductive; at this point, I don't think they have anything to do. It's easy for us just to open these things up and start working. I'm learning every day how to, like, just get smarter about how I work. I know it sounds like a big, dumb ad, but you guys really make something that I can use in a great way. I know, whatever. Adobe is here filming me, I know, but that is the truth.

The Power of Independent Thinking
Big Brother is Watching
Recorded: Thursday, June 6, 2002
To outsiders, its initials once stood for No Such Agency. To its employees, they stood for Never Say Anything. Today the public knows that the ultra-secret National Security Agency manages the nations spy satellites, but few know exactly why the NSA is the most powerful U.S. intelligence agencyor its roles in the Cold War, the hunt for Osama bin Laden, and Echelon, the worldwide NSA spying operation that, many charge, is illegally monitoring innocent citizens. No outsider knows more about the NSA than investigative journalist James Bamford, who began to research it before most members of Congress had even heard of it. In this talk, Mr. Bamford explained why he believes the NSA is a dangerous, two-edged sword.

Nutrition for Planning and Preparing for Pregnancy
There is so much advice out there; how do I choose what to eat?
Why are folic acid (or folate) and iron so important?
What is considered "healthy eating" for women who are planning to become pregnant?
What is a serving size?
What foods should I be careful about eating?
As part of a healthy diet, what should I drink?
Is it ok to drink alcohol while I am planning to get pregnant?
There is so much advice out there; how do I choose what to eat?Choosing what to eat should be based on a balanced diet and the amount of calories you need to carry out your daily activities. Avoid fad diets and those that over-emphasize or downplay any of the six main dietary nutrients: water, protein, carbohydrates, fat, vitamins, and minerals. Healthy eating will help you function at your best and achieve and maintain a healthy body weight.
Why are folic acid (or folate) and iron so important?As part of the revised FDA national dietary guidelines for healthy eating, there are two specific recommendations for pre-pregnant women that relate to iron and folate (folic acid):
Whether you are planning to get pregnant or not, you must be sure to get enough folic acid (sometimes called folate).
Folic acid is a B vitamin that helps a baby's neural tube -- the part of the embryo that becomes the brain and spinal cord -- develop properly. It is critical to start taking it before conception and to continue taking it through the third month of pregnancy, when the baby's neural tube is developing, to prevent birth defects in the spine and skull.
You can get folic acid by taking a multivitamin with 400 micrograms (mcg) of it daily. You will also find it in fortified breakfast cereals; citrus fruits and juices; dried peas and beans; and green, leafy vegetables such as spinach, collard and turnip greens, and broccoli.
Iron is important during pregnancy as it prevents anemia, a condition in which the body isn't able to produce enough healthy red blood cells. Developing infants need a high level of red blood cells in order to receive enough oxygen. And, anemia in the mother can be passed on to her baby.
You can get heme-iron by eating food such as red meats, fish, and poultry (basically, food from animal sources). Iron-rich plant foods include cooked beans, lentils, and enriched pasta. Many breakfast cereals are also iron-fortified.
Foods that help iron absorption consist of fruits (oranges, orange juice, cantaloupe, strawberries, grapefruit) and vegetables (broccoli, brussels sprouts, tomato, tomato juice, potatoes, and green and red peppers), and are effective when eaten with iron-rich foods like meat, fish, and poultry.
What is considered healthy eating for women who are planning to become pregnant?With two exceptions, healthy eating for pre-pregnant women is the same as healthy eating for most people of the same age, gender, and physical activity level. Those exceptions are iron and folate/folic acid.
New national dietary guidelines and a revised Food Pyramid were released April 2005 by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Reviewed and revised as necessary every five years, the guidelines' purpose is to provide advice for healthy Americans about food choices that promote health and prevent disease.
Current national dietary guidelines are:
What is a serving size?A serving size is usually described in terms of numbers of cups, teaspoons, tablespoons, ounces, or slices. A serving is not what you are served! Our tendency to severely misjudge serving size has been dubbed "portion distortion." Though the name is cute, the problem is not. In fact, it is cause for serious concern since it leads many of us to overeat.
Here are healthy one-portion servings for women:
What foods should I be careful about eating?Be careful about eating certain fish, including shark, swordfish, king mackerel and tilefish. Sometimes these fish have levels of methylmercury that can damage the nervous system of a fetus.
Although almost all fish and shellfish contain small amounts of mercury, you can enjoy some with lower mercury levels (shrimp, canned light tuna, salmon, pollock, and catfish) in moderation (no more than 12 ounces a week, according to the FDA and EPA). Because albacore (or white) tuna or tuna steaks are higher in mercury than canned light tuna, it's recommended that you eat no more than 6 ounces a week.
Do not eat raw or undercooked seafood, poultry and meat.
Thoroughly wash all fruits and vegetables.
As part of a healthy diet, what should I drink?You should drink about 8 cups of non-alcoholic, noncaffeinated liquids each day.
Plain water is best, but you can also get the liquid you need from soups and juices (though, be careful…you'll add calories with these options!).
Drinks that have caffeine, and that includes many sodas, have a diuretic effect – meaning they will cause increased urine output. This is true of alcohol as well.
Is it ok to drink alcohol while I am planning to get pregnant?It is best not to drink alcohol while you are planning to get pregnant. The first 8 weeks of your pregnancy are a particularly vulnerable time for your fetus as its vital organs are being developed. Because you may not know you are pregnant for a few weeks, or sometimes months, after conception, it is best to abstain from alcohol and avoid this serious risk. In addition, evidence shows alcohol may inhibit ovulation, perhaps making it more difficult to conceive.

Central tall grasslands
At the time of arrival of Native Americans, bison grazed the Central tall grasslands.
The Central tall grasslands extend over southern Minnesota, most of Iowa, an element of eastern South Dakota, and present as a narrow finger through eastern Nebraska and northeastern Kansas in the USA. This ecoregion is within the Nearctic ecoregion category. The tallgrass prairie of the USA and Canada is divided into three ecoregions: the Central, Northern, and Flint Hills tall grasslands. Agricultural conversion and development of wind farms have brought considerable habitat destruction to this ecoregion.
The Central tall grasslands are the most mesic of the grasslands of the central plains of North America. It can be distinguished from other grassland associations by the dominance of tallgrass species–a feature once relatively uniform across its range–and by the highest levels of precipitation (100 centimeters per annum). The Central tall grasslands also has the longest growing season of the ecoregions of the Great Plains. How historically abundant American Bison (Bison bison) were is not entirely clear, but Elk (Cervus elaphus) were likely very important to this ecoregion in times prior to human settlement circa 13,000 years before present.
The Central tall grasslands is distinguished from the Northern tall grasslands by a much higher diversity of species and by the presence of more northerly species in the Northern tall grasslands. The Central tall grasslands is demarcated from the Flint Hills tall grasslands to the south by soil type. The rocky, limestone soils of the Flint Hills made that ecoregion unsuitable for intensive agriculture. The soils of the Central tall grasslands presented no such constraints to intensive farming and are now virtually converted to corn and soybean production. Historically, fire, drought and grazing by American Bison and other native ungulates were the principal sources of habitat disturbance in this ecoregion.
Biological Distinctiveness
The Central tall grasslands were likely one of the most visually appealing ecoregions of North America in their original state. Before being settled by humans and converted to agriculture, it was the largest tallgrass prairie on Earth. The large number of brightly flowering herbaceous plants added greatly to the plant diversity as well as to its physical beauty. The dominant grass species in this ecoregion are Big Bluestem (Andropogon gerardii), Old Switch Panic Grass (Panicum virgatum), and Yellow Indian grass (Sorghastrum nutans). The richness of the herbaceous cover is obvious across this ecoregion: about 265 species constitute the bulk of the tallgrass prairie in Iowa; 237 species were recorded in a square mile near Lincoln, Nebraska and 225 species were recorded from the Missouri River Valley. Many of the plant species found here originated from several different regions; having been exposed to a wide range of climates over the long term, they exhibit relatively wide ecological ranges and thus are widespread throughout the Great Plains.
Because the Great Plains grasslands attained their current extent only in the post-glacial period, these associations are characterized by very low endemism in plants and animals. Attenuated endemism is also characteristic of adjacent grassland ecoregions. As in the case of certain other ecoregions of this section of North America, American Bison and Elk once roamed these tallgrass prairies, where they were hunted by the prairie wolf (Canis lupus). All these large mammalian species are now extirpated in this ecoregion.
Central tall grasslands hold a number of amphibian taxa, including Cope's Gray Treefrog (Hyla chrysoscelis); Great Plains Toad (Anaxyrus cognatus), a fossorial anuran typically found in stream valleys; Bronze Frog (Lithobates clamitans), found typically on banks of lentic streams; Northern Leopard Frog (Lithobates pipiens), an anuran found in vegetated habitats near permanent water bodies and the leopard frog best adapted to extreme cold; Pickerel Frog (Lithobates palustris), found in turbid warm waters; and Northern Cricket Frog (Acris crepitans), a species typically found at edges of waterbodies with submerged vegetation.
Reptilian taxa in the ecoregion are represented by the Broad-headed Skink (Plestiodon laticeps); Dekay's Brown Snake (Storeria dekayi), a species often found in moist soils under rocks; Eastern Hognose Snake (Heterodon platirhinos); False Map Turtle (Graptemys pseudogeographica); Five-lined Skink (Plestiodon fasciatus); Fox Snake (Pantherophis vulpinus);
Corn fields take over the grasslands, Loess Hills, Iowa. Source: Bill Whittaker Typical avian species found in the Loess Hills part of the ecoregion include Red-tailed Hawk, Sharp-shinned Hawk, Cooper's Hawk (Accipiter cooperii), Peregrine Falcon, Ferruginous Hawk, Swainson's Hawk (Buteo swainsoni), Osprey (Pandion haliaetus), Northern Harrier (Circus cyaneus), American Kestrel (Falco sparverius), and Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus). In all, 20 species of raptor have been identified in this single localized portion of the Central tall grasslands. Raptors play a fundamental balance in grassland communities for regulating the populations of large numbers of species of reptiles and amphibians as well as small mammals.
Catlinite has been prehistorically quarried and worked to produce ceremonial pipes, important to traditional Plains Indian religious practices. The quarries, commemorated by the National Pipestone Monument, are sacred to several tribes including the Dakota, Lakota, and otherNative Americans; in early periods many centuries ago these quarries were deemed neutral territory where various tribes could quarry stone for ceremonial pipes; however, it is thought that Sioux tribes may have driven out Plains tribes and aggressively seized control of the quarries circa 1700, before arrival of European settlers.
Conservation Status
Habitat Loss and Degradation
The Central tall grasslands is now the corn belt of the USA. Nearly all of this ecoregion has been converted to tilled crop land and the rest is used for haying and pasture.
Remaining Blocks of Intact Habitat Konza Prairie Preserve, Flint Hills, Kansas. Source: Creative Commons
Essentially no sizeable blocks of intact habitat exist in this ecoregion. Remnants of the Central tall grasslands in southern Iowa and adjacent Missouri are restricted to 20 patches, all less than 0.08 km2 (20 acres) in size. The Loess Hills in western Iowa (16 km2) and the Prairie Coteau in eastern South Dakota contain important remnants, although the former is rather linear in shape and grazed by livestock. The Konza Prairie Preserve in the Flint Hills of northeast Kansas is the largest extant intact tallgrass prairie in North America.
Degree of Fragmentation
Fragmentation is considerable in this ecoregion, thus resulting in few, widely scattered parcels of tallgrass prairie.
Degree of Protection
Few of the remaining land fragments have formal protection, although restoration is underway at Walnut Creek National Wildlife Refuge in central Iowa. The Squaw Creek National Wildlife Refuge is a federally protected area in the vicinity of the Loess Hills.
Types and Severity of Threats
Because this ecoregion is virtually converted, future threats to the remaining tiny fragments are particularly significant. For example, the Loess Hills is one of the most important extant units of habitat, and yet this area has been significantly impacted by development of a wind farm. Wind turbines have already exacted a major toll on native birdlife, especially raptors who rely upon the same thermals that the wind turbines target. Continued operation of this windfarm and others in the ecoregion is a threat to the native raptor species and hence on the entire ecosystem, since raptors are keystone species here.
Suite of Priority Activities to Enhance Biodiversity Conservation
- Working with appropriate agencies, efforts should be made to protect and restore the remaining fragments. This will be an arduous effort in most areas and perhaps futile in others, because of the high value of the land for agricultural purposes.
- An example of an appropriate target for this approach would be the Prairie Coteau, which could be restored to an area as large as 162 km2.

Relationship to other classification schemes
Tallgrass prairie is a biome derived from Sims. It corresponds to Küchler unit no. 66 (Bluestem Prairie), and Omernik ecoregion 47 (Western Corn Belt plains). The tallgrass prairie defined above generally corresponds to Bailey as parts of sections 251B (North Central Glaciated plains Section), 251C (Central Dissected Till plains Section), and 222M (Minnesota and NE Iowa Morainal, Oak Savanna Section).

This camera was an old-fashioned Muggle camera that Colin Creevey used to take pictures of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to show his father, who was a milkman. The camera ran off the magical atmosphere, so it would not cease to function.[1] When Colin was petrified due to him looking at Salazar Slytherin's basilisk through his camera, the film within was burnt and melted. It was lost on the school grounds during the 1995–1996 school year, but eventually found by Harry, on an offset in The Quad near the battlements, who gave it to him.

Use a leading space in Page and Module Class Suffix parameters
From Joomla! Documentation
Revision as of 12:04, 8 January 2011 by Realityking (Talk | contribs)
Page Class Suffix and Module Class Suffix parameters allow you to create new CSS classes in the HTML that Joomla! generates. This in turn allows you to apply individual CSS code to change the appearance of individual Menu Items or Modules.
You can enter in these parameters with a leading space, for example " myNewClass" (that is, <space> + "myNewClass"). If you enter a Class Suffix with a leading space, Joomla! will create a new CSS class instead of modifying the existing class. In the previous example, the HTML code for a "componentheading" element would be changed from

Now, this "div" element has two CSS classes assigned to it. The existing styling will still work correctly, since the element still has the "componentheading" class assigned to it. To change the style for this element, you simply add new CSS for the new class.
For example, to change the background color for the heading just in this one Menu Item, you could add code something like this to your template's CSS file:
.componentheading.myNewClass { background-color: #FFE4E1; /* mistyrose */ }
Because you are specifying both the "componentheading" and the "myNewClass" in the CSS selector, this style will only be applied to this one element.
One word of caution: make sure your new CSS style name does not duplicate any existing CSS classes! Otherwise, you will get styles applied incorrectly.
See the Using Class Suffixes tutorial for more information.

17 Arrested Under St. Petersburg "Don't Say Gay" Law
Jim Burroway
May 1st, 2012
According to the St. Petersburg, Russia web site Coming Out, seventeen LGBT advocates were arrested for carrying rainbow flags as part of the May 1st civil rights and freedom march on Nevsky Prospect, the city's main boulevard. The LGBT advocates were participating in the city-sanctioned march as part of a larger group of democratic and civil society gropus. According to Coming Out:
5 minutes into the march, police requested removal of rainbow flags. When activists refused, they were forcefully detained and are now facing charges of "propaganda of homosexuality" and non-compliance with the police. One activist was detained for holding a sign "homophobia is illegal."
17 activists are still being held by the police. Among those detained are Igor Kochetkov, chairman of the Russian LGBT Network, Mikhail Belodedov of Coming Out, Sergey Kondrashov, lawyer and straight ally, and Elena Popova, director of St. Petersburg organization "Soldier's mothers", defending rights of draftees.
The so-called "gay propaganda law" bars groups, publications, events and other so-called "promotion" of LGBT rights, was passed in St. Petersburg in February. The Russian Parliament and Moscow City Council may take up similar proposals.

Shiva Casein is a milk-product based paint which may be thinned with water. An extremely versatile medium, caseins may be applied in any manner, from impasto to thin watercolor washes. They are water soluble, but become insoluble with time and exposure.
Caseins dry quickly to a natural matte finish, making them unexcelled for reproduction. They can also be brought to a satin sheen simply by buffing with a soft cloth. If a gloss finish is desired, casein paintings can be varnished.
Caseins can be used on most surfaces. Because of the inflexibility of the binder, they should not be applied to canvas in heavy impastos. Colors are brilliant, permanent, and intermixable.
Basic Set of 6 — Contains 6 colors in 37 ml (1.25 oz) tubes, including Ivory Black, Titanium White, Naples Yellow, Rose Red, Shiva Green (Phthalo), and Ultramarine Blue Deep.
Color Theory Set — Perfect for teaching color theory, casein has minimal color shift and mixes easily. The Color Theory Set contains six 37 ml tubes of Shiva Casein, including Shiva Rose Red, Cadmium Yellow Light, Ultramarine Blue Deep, Cadmium Orange, Shiva Green (Phthalo), and Shiva Violet.

Don't Mess With Aramis
- Friday June 20th – Wrigley Field
- Game (74): Cubs 4 – White Sox 3
- Record (46-28) – 1st place NL Central
- Soriano Saga – (4-4)
The skinny:At work this morning I hedged a bet with the boss, loser of the cross-town classic series buys dinner.
Of course, I've got the Cubs and the native Southsider is taking his Sox.
I don't have one betting bone in my body, never have never will.
Las Vegas you say, I'm not interested – except for the food.
Super Bowl bets, nope.
March Madness: one time I bet a single dollar; call it peer pressure from the rest of the office.
Even during last year's Kentucky Derby fellow employees became so frustrated with my lack of betting interest that they gave me their own money to squander.
So obviously, it's not like me to settle on a sports wager.
And, the first six innings of today's ballgame reminded me why I don't bet in the first place; no one ever knows for sure who'll come out on top.
Plus, with the Cubs trailing 3-1 heading into seventh I had my doubts about a comeback win.
To this point John Danks only allowed five Cubs to reach base, and he also had the Sox's solid bullpen in the waiting.
Needless to say, the Cubs needed some help at the plate, especially with the flags flying limp in center field.
Who ever thought 'luck' would turn out to be the Sox's Octavio Dotel, a right-handed reliever who's allowed just two home runs in 33-plus innings this season?
And just when I thought the game reached its climax during the seventh with Lee and Ramirez's back-to-back jacks, Aramis goes walk-off in the ninth! Awesome!
Okay, one more Cubs win and both my wallet and belly is a little fatter.
W: Wood (4-1)
L: Linebrink (2-2)
- Notes: The Cubs are 30-8 at Wrigley Field.
- This is the first time both the Cubs and Sox have held a first place lead in their respective divisions while meeting during interleague play.
- D. Lee and Aramis hit back-to-back jobs earlier this season in Philadelphia (April 11th).
- Ramirez's last walk-off home run came nearly one year ago against the Brewers at Wrigley Field on June 29th.
- Aramis smashed a two-out, two-run game-winning home run against Francisco Cordero.

Prized for their sweetness, full flavor and large size, the fruit is loaded with vitamin A and C and healthy antioxidants. The fast-growing tree is nicely sized for containers and garden beds.

FlyUS (stylised as flyUS) is a prominent airline featured in the HD Universe and it appears in Grand Theft Auto IV, GTA Chinatown Wars and Grand Theft Auto V. The company's slogan & motto tagline is: "Fly With US".
FlyUS is known to serve 55 destinations in 37 countries across Asia, Middle East, Europe, North America, Latin America and Oceania. At Francis International Airport, there are multiple advertisments promoting flights to Los Santos, Las Venturas and Vice City. There can also be seen FlyUS cars driving along such as the Feroci and the Perennial, as well as the Ripley and the Airtug. There are also taxis and buses which bear FlyUS advertisments. The airline's livery appears to be based off the United Airlines 1993-1997 "Battleship Grey" livery, though the name could be a joke towards US Airways. The design of the letters and colours also has a huge resemblance of that on FedEx's planes. Furthermore, the airline's resemblance might be a cross between Delta Air Lines and American Airlines, both in real life. A company named FlyUs does exist, however it is not a passenger airliner, and operates in the Netherlands and Belgium - Yet, the real life FlyUs logo does bear a stunning resemblance to the GTA FlyUS logo.
The FlyUS fleet includes a large amount of planes based off the 747-300 Boeing 747-300 jumbo jet and also some Shamal-like planes, seen parked around Francis International Airport with the Fly US logo - Although only the Jumbo jets are seen flying (and also roaming around runways and taxiways) around Liberty City.
FlyUS serves 5-domestic destinations and 51-international destinations including cargo services in 37-countries across Asia, Middle East, Europe, North America, Latin America and Oceania.
- The name could be trying to say 'Fly US', a slang term for "Have Sex with US".
- There are five keychain viewfinders with pictures of Los Santos acquirable by pre-ordering Grand Theft Auto V from the American store Target, shaped similarly to jet engines, which feature a FlyUS logo on the side.
- A billboard featuring a FlyUS advertisment is seen in the second Grand Theft Auto V trailer.

Progressive 'Green' Counterinsurgency
21rst Century Removal of Indigenous Peoples
By Atheo | Aletho News | July 5, 2010
The energy industry is aligning with government of the Philippines in reducing the burden of suppression of the insurgency in Mindanao.
Divide and rule tactics pitting Christians and Muslims against one another have failed to cement state power. Military occupation has proved ineffective. The intractable conflict with the rebels has persisted for decades despite the presence of US military advisers as well as generous provision of the latest, most lethal, weapons.
During the Vietnam war, the US used napalm and agent orange in an attempt to isolate and expose the Viet Cong. Now a new and progressive method of fracturing the links between the insurgency and the population in which the insurgents move is appearing.
Tropical rainforests can now be cleared and converted into biodiesel. All the while, the stripped areas can be replanted with palm oil plantations. Local, newly dispossessed, people can be readily hired to provide plantation labor. What's more, consumers in Europe will have to pay the premium cost of the biodiesel because the mandates for biodiesel sales are already established.
All these benefits for transnational investors accrue from meeting carbon reduction goals!
For countless centuries slash and burn agriculture provided a sustainable subsistence in harmony with the environment in tropical rain-forests due to ample rotation cycles. But this practice is simply impossible to exploit for the export of cash crops.
Forests are now being converted into energy farms around the world at an unprecedented rate.
Proposed changes to the Brazilian Forest Code, if accepted, will double deforestation in the Amazon. As a result of lobbying by the alternative energy sector, 85 million hectares of the Amazon could be destroyed. An area equivalent to the size of England and France together and more than the total that has been destroyed until now.

Rather than a co-operative lifestyle, the "Dog Species" are at work securing power to push ahead with their programmes of enslavement through destabilisation. They've had to adopt more of a "hands off" remote control style in recent years but the effects and goal are the same. A bit of genocide will not come amiss. It has served them well in North America, Palestine and elsewhere.

Why Jerusalem? — Israel's hidden agenda
By Dan Lieberman | Online Journal | July 6, 2009
Three huge granite stones rest comfortably on the top of Midbar Sinai Street, in Givat Havatzim, Jerusalem's northernmost district. Cut to specification, the imposing stones represent one of several preparations by the Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful Movement's to erect a Third Temple on the Haram al-Sharif/Temple Mount.
Since the Islamic Wafq owns and controls all the property on the Haram al-Sharif, by what means can these stones be transferred to the Temple Mount and how can a temple be constructed there? Not by any legal means.
The stones are a provocation, which the Israel government refuses to halt. Neglect and passivity lead to a belief that an eventual Muslim reaction to the increasing provocations will give Israel an excuse to seize total control of the Holy Basin — the ultimate of the properties that Israel intends to incorporate into a greater Jerusalem. … continue

If you filed your tax return early this year, you'll have to wait a week longer for your refund.
According to an IRS spokesman, the delay was caused by new safeguards installed in IRS computer systems to prevent refund fraud. The problem is limited to taxpayers who filed their returns before January 26.
Returns that were accepted on or after that date will not be affected.

What is a Ignition Interlock Device?
An ignition interlock device or breath alcohol ignition interlock device (IID and BIID) is a mechanism, like a breathalyzer, installed to a motor vehicle's dashboard. Before the vehicle's motor can be started, the driver first must exhale into the device, if the resultant breath-alcohol concentration analyzed result is greater than the programmed blood alcohol concentration — usually 0.02% or 0.04%, the device prevents the engine from being started.
Ignition Interlock laws in your state
Interlock install providers in your state
At random times after the engine has been started, the IID will require another breath sample. The purpose of this is to prevent a friend from breathing into the device, enabling the intoxicated person to get behind the wheel and drive away. If the breath sample isn't provided, or the sample exceeds the ignition interlock's preset blood alcohol level, the device will log the event, warn the driver and then start up an alarm (e.g., lights flashing, horn honking, etc.) until the ignition is turned off, or a clean breath sample has been provided. A common misconception is that interlock devices will simply turn off the engine if alcohol is detected; this would, however, create an unsafe driving situation and expose interlock manufacturers to considerable liability.

Reva Chamblis, former candidate for Brooklyn Park City Council's East District, isn't by any estimate sitting around crying over spilled milk. No sooner did her region's primary elections wrap up (Chamblis missed advancing to the general election by a small margin) then she threw her shoulder back to the wheel, firing up a Get Out the Vote initiative. "Brooklyn Park has over 50 percent minority that are registered voters," Chamblis points out. "Turnout there was very low, to the extent that it could have been."
Hennepin County and local districts, Chamblis notes, had qualified minority candidates. "Most lost due to low turnout [among citizens] who have a stake in the election." There has been, it's common knowledge, a flap about whether Brooklyn Park's interests are misrepresented by a lack of minorities in elected office. Continue Reading →

|Arcane Explosion
|Usable by
|(GCD 1.5 sec)
|Level required
|TCG image
There's only one safe place to stand, and it's occupied.
Arcane Explosion is a core mage ability learned at level 18. It is a point blank area of effect spell that deals arcane damage to all enemies within 10 yards of the caster. It is used most often to quickly kill many weak enemies. It is often abbreviated as "AE".
Modified by
- Glyph of Arcane Explosion
- Item Level 25
- Major Glyph
- Classes: Mage
- Requires level 25
- Use: Permanently teaches you this glyph.
Increases the radius of your Arcane Explosion by 5 yards.
- Sell Price: 1
This spell is very popular. In instances especially, there are often groups of small non-elites either alone or surrounding a "leader" elite. Some instance groups bring a mage along solely to quickly deal with these pests. You won't mind being pigeonholed this way... it's both fun and a challenge to test your ability to stay alive.
This is used by higher level characters for farming instances for friends, and game friends usually. It can be used for other farming purposes as well.
The 5 piece set bonus from the Netherwind Regalia set will increase the radius of the spell by 25%, for a 12.5 yd radius.
Patch changes
- Patch 5.3.0 (21-May-2013): Arcane Explosion now deals 40% more damage.
- Patch 4.1.0 (26-Apr-2011): Arcane Explosion damage has been increased by 30%.
- Patch 3.0.3 (04-Nov-2008): Reduced the mana cost of Fireball, Frostbolt, Frostfire Bolt, Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles, and Arcane Explosion.
- Patch 2.4.0 (25-Mar-2008): The damage cap for area of effect damage on this spell has been increased by approximately 50%.
- Patch 1.11.0 (20-Jun-2006): The spell no longer has a base cast of 1.5 seconds; now instant cast and will no longer remove the Presence of Mind effect when used.

Rudy Jaramillo In, Bradley Out?
I have little doubt Rudy Jaramillo can resurrect the Cubs offense from two seasons ago when they led the world in runs scored.
The man is widely regarded as the best in the business at his craft, and the Cubs are wisely paying him handsomely to perform his magic on the North Side.
But asking Jaramillo to heal the incurable Milton Bradley is foolish.
It's true Bradley posted one of his best seasons in the majors during 2008 under Jaramillo's tutelage in Texas, but I don't care if Ted Williams returns from the freezer to coach the Cubs' hitters, there's no room for Bradley in Chicago if the Cubs want to win.
Landing Jaramillo may turn out to be Jim Hendry's best catch this offseason, but if the GM fails to trade Bradley, however, it completely nullifies Jaramillo's signing. End of story.
I said last year the only thing standing between the Cubs and a world championship was its right fielder.
Until Bradley is moved that doesn't change, with or without Rudy Jaramillo.

Call for Publication on the Spatial Significance of Native American Stories and Ideology -- due July 31
full name / name of organization:
Cristine Soliz
contact email:
We are now accepting submissions for a collection of stories, essays, and poems for a proposed book on comparative American spatial concepts, partially titled "Stories the Land Holds." The editors are looking for texts variously addressing "stories in the land." What are the stories the land tells? Vine Deloria has warned us of problems that result from a perspective that is not fundamentally spatial, and such has been the case for current problems that range from ecological disaster to fanatical environmentalism and bundled mortgages. We believe that these complex and problematic American events can be understood more fully from a Native American perspective. However, cultural amnesia after 1776 has obscured how fundamental Native American ideology is to who we are as Americans, and how vital this philosophy can be for redirecting the disastrous turn of events in American history by recovering and listening to the stories.
Are there truly American "stories" that have been lost or forgotten in colonial efforts to redefine the continent as a "New" or empty world and reshape these lands of Turtle Island with stories and perspectives from other places? Take, for example, the Diné who at one time performed 500 ceremonies but today only a handful of ceremonies remain. Beneath the current political and ideological structures that cover the surface of America, there is the land itself, and in the land the stories embedded there by Native voices that speak to us about who we are in relation to the natural surroundings that hold us. The natural sciences developed by Native Americans over the millennia across America included their reciprocal relationship with natural environments. This is a spatial and local view where both land and individual are visible.
A working structure of our book includes stories of the creation and stories of the encounter, from Emperor Charles' and Spanish demands in the 1500s for vast acquisitions of land and rent from the Indians to a Susquahannough's trading of stories in the 1600s with a Swedish Minister from "New Sweden" in Pennsylvania, and lastly to a view of the land as exorbitantly priced real estate with family homes no longer being local possessions but parts of the vast acquisitions of bundled mortgages by unknown international groups.

Doug Glanville Explains Tiger's Stripes
Strangely, I became a fan of former-Cub Doug Glanville while he was playing in Philadelphia, and not Chicago.
In high school my friends and I would take games in from the center field seats. With our sophomoric maturity at its peek, we relentlessly heckled the visiting team's center fielder (not one of my prouder moments, mind you!).
Most players ignored us, but some shot us looks of disbelief and disapproval, which sadly entertained us. Others, however, like Glanville acknowledged the hazing and even played back.
Glanville's specialty was flashing us his bright smile. The more we unloaded on him the wider it got. And for good measure, Glanville often faked throwing the baseball our way after catching the third out of an inning, and we loved him for it!
Now a regular contributor to the New York Times, Glanville wrote an interesting piece about the luxuries of being a pro athlete and how the behavior and downfall of Tiger Woods came to be.
Below I've pasted a few clips from the article. You can read the piece in its entirety here.
- Apparently, I had skipped a few of the steps to social acceptance, and before I knew it, "unapproachable" and "woman" were no longer being used in the same sentence.
- It was like a kid finding Batman's belt in the lost and found. No point in giving it back until you've tried all your new powers.
- As you climb the baseball ladder, your social confidence explodes. You receive the sort of attention you never did as an acne-ridden honors student. Quite frankly, it is addictive, and when you are in it, there seems to be no end in sight.
- In an athlete's environment, money can be its own pollutant; you can become desensitized to the significance of what it can buy.

Gannett Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON (Gannett News Service) - Sen. Jim DeMint, newly emboldened by the Election Day victories of conservative candidates he backed, is preparing to clash with the Senate's top Republican over lawmakers' practice of spending federal money on pet projects back home.
On Tuesday, when Republicans meet to plot their course for the Congress that convenes in January, DeMint will ask other GOP senators to ban such projects - or earmarks - for the next two years.
One Republican already on the record against the idea is Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.
The difference of opinion could culminate in a showdown between DeMint, an ultraconservative upstart enjoying increased clout as a result of the recent elections, and the most powerful member of the Republican establishment.
DeMint told Gannett Washington Bureau recently he supports McConnell and doesn't plan to challenge him for the minority leader post. But the earmark conflict could spawn other philosophical fights between the two.
House Republicans, who adopted an earmark ban two years ago, are expected to extend it for the next Congress. That would put more pressure on McConnell and would give DeMint and the 13 senators backing him extra ammunition for a Senate ban.
"Americans want Congress to shut down the earmark favor factory, and next week I believe House and Senate Republicans will unite to stop pork barrel spending," DeMint said in a statement. "Instead of spending time chasing money for pet projects, lawmakers will be able to focus on balancing the budget, reforming the tax code and repealing the costly health care takeover."
Supporting DeMint's effort are Sens.-elect Marco Rubio of Florida, Rand Paul of Kentucky, Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, Mike Lee of Utah, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire. All were backed by the tea party movement.
DeMint's Senate Conservatives Fund political action committee contributed $5 million to 12 tea party-backed candidates, including all the newly elected members except Ayotte.
Other GOP senators supporting DeMint's call for an earmark ban include Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, Richard Burr of North Carolina, Jeff Sessions of Alabama, John Ensign of Nevada, Mike Enzi of Wyoming, Bob Corker of Tennessee and John Cornyn of Texas.
McConnell said earmarks help Congress fulfill its constitutional role of deciding how to spend tax dollars. Scrapping them would strengthen the executive branch's power to make spending decisions, which doesn't sit well with many GOP senators, McConnell told CBS's Face the Nation program on Nov. 7.
McConnell said he would consider approving a ban that would apply to all senators, but he added, ``What we really need to do is to concentrate on reducing spending and reducing debt. And this debate (over earmarks) doesn't save any money, which is why it's kind of exasperating to some of us who really want to cut spending."
Last year's budget included 9,500 earmarks - for local road and bridge projects, social service programs and military bases - totaling nearly $16 billion, a fraction of the more than $1 trillion the federal government spends each year.
Congressional lawmakers aren't the only ones who insert earmark requests into spending bills. The White House does as well.
South Carolina received about $351 million in earmarks last year, despite DeMint's refusal to seek them. All other members of the Palmetto State delegation sought earmarks, according to Taxpayers for Common Sense, a nonpartisan group.
Budget watchdog Robert Bixby, who heads the Concord Coalition, said banning earmarks would be more symbolic than substantive and would do little to solve the government's fiscal problems.
"I think earmark reform goes more to the issue of good government than fiscal responsibility," Bixby said.
He said earmarks "raise the specter of what campaign contributors expect to get. It has a slightly corrupt feel to it."
The co-chairmen of a bipartisan deficit-reduction advisory commission created by President Barack Obama released preliminary recommendations Wednesday that include a recommendation to scrap earmarks. The commission will release its final recommendations next month.
The co-chairmen, former Democratic White House Chief of Staff Erskine Bowles and former Republican Sen. Alan Simpson of Wyoming, also recommended sweeping changes to Social Security, cutting $1.5 trillion in military and domestic spending, and ending popular tax breaks.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-SC, and other critics of earmarks say they'll keep seeking them as long as Congress allows the practice because South Carolina would be shortchanged otherwise. Graham says his earmark requests are practical and necessary.
An earmark request for $400,000 to study the deepening of the Port of Charleston has become a sticking point between South Carolina's two senators. DeMint has refused to co-sponsor the request.
His refusal could lessen South Carolina's chances of getting that money. Earmark requests backed by both senators from a state have a better chance of approval.
The total cost of the Charleston project is at least $300 million. Port officials worry that if they pay the initial feasibility-study cost, it will jeopardize federal funding for the project. Normally, a cost-sharing system is in place where the federal government will pay 40 percent of the construction bill to deepen the harbor, with the state paying the remaining 60 percent, a port spokesman said.
"The earmark process is abused and needs to be reformed," Graham said in a recent telephone interview. "But I am going to be single-minded when it comes to the Charleston Harbor staying viable. If there is a better way than the earmark process to do that, I am open to it."

Hello to all !
After viewing the gorgeous maps on this forum I couldn't help but post a request. We have game server on the game Neverwinter Nights 2, and we'd like a continental map for our hand-crafted universe (not based on D&D). There is no real time constraint, although I would appreciate a time estimate nonetheless.
I'm not sure how much these things go for, but I'm open to negotiating rates by email. As far as the map itself, I'm looking for a fantasy style, I'm fairly open at this point frankly and I could use any creative guidance/input from you. We have a general idea of the geography, with two major mountain ranges, a desert, a wasteland, a forest, a jungle, an ocean on either side of the continent.
As far as quality goes, I'm looking for something semi-professional I suppose, and given as this is for a game, I'm fairly open about copyright issues.
Please contact me by email at ae_ali--at--hotmail.com
Hope to hear from you soon !

Millie Perkins
this wiki
Millie Perkins is a supporting character in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and is one of Carl Johnson's girlfriends. She is voiced by Orfeh.
Millie's history before the game is unknown. In 1992 by the time CJ arrived in Las Venturas, she was living in a house in Prickle Pine in northern Las Venturas. She works as a croupier at Caligula's Palace casino, and as a dominatrix out of her house, as seen by the interior of her house and the comments she makes while on dates with CJ.
GTA San Andreas
Millie is a croupier at the Caligula's Palace casino in Las Venturas. Carl Johnson and Woozie, owners of The Four Dragons Casino, plan to hold a heist of Caligula's in response for the Mafia ownership of Caligula's trying to squeeze The Four Dragons out of business. She is cased by Woozie's men as a soft target and a possible way into the casino.
In the mission Key to Her Heart, CJ tails Millie home from work, kills the gimp headed to her house and pretends to be him in order to meet her. He continues to date Millie until his progress level with her reaches 35-40%, at which point she invites him into the house and gives him a keycard.
After the heist is successfully pulled off, she phones CJ and requests a share of the cut from the casino heist, which he agrees to.
During dates, the player has the option of having CJ kill Millie, rather than dating her. If he does that, Woozie will call him, saying that he can now access Millie's house and get the keycard. Killing Millie is significantly faster than dating her, and it doesn't prevent the player from gaining 100% completion, as dating girlfriends do not count towards 100% completion.
Food Date
Millie likes restaurants; fortunately there's a restaurant not too far southwest of her house.
Dancing Date
Take her to the nearest dance club, a club east of The Camel's Toe.
Driving Date
Millie likes about an average speed, and has a pretty generous range of approval, so the player shouldn't have too much trouble keeping her happy. She also likes the area she lives at, so Carl can just drive her in circles around her neighborhood area.
Special Date
Millie's special date is definitely her easiest date, and probably her best since the player can get a 10% relationship boost from this date even before Millie starts inviting Carl in normally. To get this date, wear the gimp suit. Then, when showing up for a date, Carl will just go inside for "the kinky stuff" instead of taking her out. With this date, Carl cannot give her any gifts or follow it up with coffee.
Millie will only invite inside her house for "coffee" when the relationship with her is about 40%. However, the player receives the usual 5% relationship bonus for "coffee" by performing the special date instead of a standard one.
- At about 35%: After a date, Millie will call Carl and tell that he can go to her house to get her key card.
- At 50%: The player is rewarded the keys to her car, a pink Club.
- There is no 100% reward for dating Millie.
- She will refuse to go on a date with Carl if he is "not fit."
- Millie's car has the license plate reading "SPANK". This obviously is a reference to her BDSM activites, and may be a reference to the drug SPANK in Grand Theft Auto III
- Millie may possibly take her name from the actress of the same name
- Although there is a pink Club parked outside Millie's house, she drives a pink Feltzer.

Pretty soon we all have a decision to make about marijuana. When you go to the polls in November, are you willing to legalize it? That was the question up for debate Monday night between the sheriff and a pro-marijuana activist.
Held at the campus of UCCS, and in a crowd made up mostly of college students, marijuana activists stressed the regulation of the drug- should it become legal.
"Marijuana is a substance that can be effectively and safely sold in this state and it can be effectively and safely sold, it's taxed in communities for sick people, why can't it be for adults 21 and over," activist Brian Vicente said.
Vicente and El Paso County Sheriff Terry Maketa squared off about Amendment 64. It will appear on the November ballot, asking about the legalization of marijuana for those over the age of 21. The sheriff argued that unlike alcohol, pot can't be regulated.
"What constitutes a scientific level of driving under the influence? We couldn't agree on it, couldn't determine it, so here we go into another legislative session where we can't treat it like alcohol," Maketa said.
We asked for your opinon on Facebook, and if you ever want to join the conversation, just "Like" us KKTV 11 News.
Both sides said we should all be prepared for this debate to continue and heat up as we are now just over a month away from seeing this amendment on our ballots.
If the amendment passes, it would legalize marijuana use for adults 21 and older, and allow them to possess up to an ounce of marijuana and grow up to six plants in their homes.

Alternating the country played in would raise the profile and status of the competition. I'm sure a big crowd would turn out in Oz for the fixture.
The fact that aussie fans don't get a look in or sniff of a chance to see the game on home territory is a shame and in my opinion a mistake.

Aussies in general? Because we're sheep who believe whatever News Ltd tells us...
Why do the Aussie seem not to care about international RL? So many opportunities to develop the greatest sport, so much money, so little leadership and vision....why ?
The ARL? They've been broke since the mid 90's (for obvious rasons) and have had to fight off challenges from RU, AFL and soccer for fans and support...
The new ARL says the Intl game is the pinnacle of the sport so expect things to change for the better.

Shoppers try out the new shop window touch screen
10 Oct. 2012
Adidas transforms the good old window shopping into an interactive digital window concept for a trendy and exceptionally easy shopping experience. With or without the help of smartphones, the customers can shop at Adidas Neo whenever and however they want. German Teenagers are going to be the first to test this six-week pilot project in the window of the Adidas Neo Label store in Nuremberg.
The new front window is like a perfectly functioning virtual store containing life-size products. The intuitive interface of the touch-screen enables the buyer to find their desired products in life size, and then directly transfer them from the Adidas Neo online store and to their smartphone. To do so, shoppers have to simply select an URL on their smartphone and type in a PIN digit. After that, users may change product descriptions, share items on social media channels or via e-mail and save merchandise to either buy it directly of later on.
In addition, the buyer can use a life-size digital model to present the range of Adidas Neo garments in a fun and exciting way.
This window shopping experience is a collaboration between Adidas and TBWA/ Helsinki and is now live in the Adidas Neo Store situated on Breite Gasse 46 in Nuremberg.

For the directions system in Grand Theft Auto IV, see GPS.
- For the arrows used in early top-down perspective GTA games, see location compass.
The Radar (also a Satnav in GTA IV), is a map on the Heads-up Display showing the player's current location in the game, and the relative location or direction of various points of interest. Introduced in Grand Theft Auto III, the radar essentially replaces the player centered location compass used in preceding GTA games, and remains an element of all GTA games after.
Blips on the radar show the location of various points of interest such as:
- Mission targets - Initially indicated only by colored squares in GTA III, radars from GTA Vice City onwards specifically use squares for targets on the same physical level (altitude) as the player, and a triangle pointed upwards if the target is above or a downwards triangle if it is below. In GTA IV, the radar uses coloured circles; if the target is higher or lower, there will be a small arrow inside the circle.
- Landmarks - Such as Pay 'n' Spray, Ammu-Nation, Clothing and places where the player can purchase food.
- Location of characters who can give missions to the protagonists.
- Save Points and Safehouses
- Gang Colors or Territory. (GTA San Andreas)
- Custom waypoints (GTA San Andreas onwards)
3D Universe
HD Universe
- In GTA V, the radar has been modified, and now appears rectangular rather than circular like in previous games. It is also the first in the series to have a 3D view.
