I know they aren't mathematically eliminated, but after last nights dismal performance I've officially singled down the large lady with massive wind pipes. The 2008/2009 Oilers are done.
A season that started with so much promise:
- Cole was going to revitalize the first line
- The kids were going to pick up where they left off
- Horcoff was going to continue his PPG pace
- Visnosky was going to give us the player we thought we had in Pitkanen
- Souray and Moreau were going to stay healthy and give the team toughness and vetran leadership
Ended with equally as much (or more) disappointment as the Oilers put up another "ok" performance on home ice, in what was the biggest game of the season. Last nights game was a good proxy for the 2008/2009 season as a whole – Flashes of brilliance, moments of good but not great, stretches of mediocrity and minutes of mass confusion. Once again the team tried for the big comeback with the clock winding down, eventually leading to the controversial call to check Temmu's stick for an illegal curve.
To me personally the potential reward wasn't worth the reward. Two minutes left and all the moment, the extra boost from the PP wouldn't have offset the complete deflating affect of the PK. That said though, the team had 58 minutes to at least play the Ducks straight up….
One bright spot out of the game has to be the play of the fourth line, in limited ice time the Zach attack and JFJ looked great out there, throwing hits, creating energy and hemming the Ducks in their own zone. We all knew Stortini could do this, but it seems JFJ has now found his grove, if he's able to maintain that effort and intensity over 82 games, he'll have a prosperous career as a 4th line NHL'er.

Want to make your eyes look naturally bigger? Of course you do.
So try this trick that makeup artist Jillian Dempsey (who works with celebrities including Jennifer Lawrence and Kate Winslet) uses on herself all summer long:
"I line my lower lashes with a creamy brown pencil and then give it a little smudge," says Dempsey, who likes Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes because the waterproof formula doesn't crease or smear in the heat.
MORE from ALLURE
She keeps her upper lashes minimal: "I either trace a very thin line along my upper lashes or I skip them completely," she says, explaining that enhancing just the lower lashes makes your eyes look bigger. Plus, a full-on smoky eye can seem out of place when the weather (finally) warms up.
"A full face of makeup in the summer is all wrong," she says. "A smudgy line of a neutral brown is perfect for the beach."

Mark Sanchez = 11 characters
Quarterback = 11 characters
New York Jets = 11 characters
11,11,11 = 6 ones.
11+11+11=33. 3+3 = 6
I can do this all day long
I can do this all day long.
They found their answer in a series of eerily profane numbers: Sanchez, who wears jersey No. 6, has six touchdown passes and six interceptions so far. He's averaging 6.6 yards per attempt, and his longest completion is 66 yards. His passer rating: 66.6.
Throw in a pregame tweet from Tebow noting that the Jets-Texans clash was the 666th Monday Night Football game, followed by the obligatory biblical passage, and the NFL might as well start printing Satanchez jerseys in green-and-white.

Comment Re:Does BR even rate having a sequel? Explain plea (Score 1) 326
One has the voice-over narrative, which gives the movie a feeling reminiscent of the old "gum-shoe" detective movies from the Golden Age of Hollywood
It already had that feel in spades. Adding the voiceover just beats you over the head with it. Which I guess is appropriate, because the voiceover itself just beats you over the head with everything else.

MG plant sale brings in more than $8,000
The Lee County Master Gardeners pocketed more than $8,000 at their annual plant sale in April.
With an estimated crowd of more than 400 people, the four-hour sale raised $8,271, said Susan McGukin, program associate for volunteer management at Mississippi State University's Extension Service for Lee County.
"A perfect spring morning brought out an early crowd," McGukin said. "We counted 109 customers in line prior to opening the gates at 8 a.m., which led to a shopping frenzy during the first 30 minutes of the sale."
The proceeds go toward supporting 15 current Master Gardener projects, from Jr. Master Gardener classes to demonstration gardens to the Learning Series to the Ashbury Court Senior Citizen Gardens. The Lee County group also sponsors two annual horticulture scholarships to Mississippi State University.
What's new: Lights go on when power goes out
A Solon company has developed an emergency home lighting system that uses wireless technology to turn on lights automatically in a power outage.
The heart of the Mr. Beams ReadyBright system is a control unit you keep plugged into an electrical outlet. The instant the power goes out, the battery-operated unit illuminates to become a flashlight. It also sends a wireless signal that turns on all the other ReadyBright lights in the home.
The lights can be ordered at www.mrbeams.com. A starter house kit with one controller, one ceiling light and one path light costs $69.99 but is currently on sale for $59.99.
Repairing a DVD
Q: I have a DVD that jumps and stops at a certain point. It appears to have some scratches. How can I get rid of them?
A: Try cleaning the DVD first. Netflix says you can use Windex and a paper towel, although I'd probably use a soft cloth. Wipe in straight lines from the center to the outer edge, not in a circular motion.
If the DVD still gives you trouble, try working a little toothpaste or wax into the scratches, or use a liquid made for repairing CDs and DVDs, the technology website Digital Trends recommends. Use several thin layers, and let the disc dry a little while. Then buff it lightly, again working in straight lines from the center to the edge.

Novelist Vargas Llosa to deliver lecture
Tuesday, April 22, 2008, 8 p.m. · McCosh 50
Posted April 18, 2008; 09:48 a.m.
Mario Vargas Llosa, one of the most influential Latin American writers and a onetime candidate for the Peruvian presidency, will deliver a lecture titled "Onetti and the Shadows of Faulkner and Borges" at 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 22, in McCosh 50.
The lecture will consider the work of Uruguayan novelist Juan Carlos Onetti -- a 1980 winner of the Cervantes Prize, the most prestigious award for Spanish-language literature -- and its relationship to the writing of William Faulkner and Jorge Luis Borges.
Vargas Llosa first attracted international attention with "The Time of the Hero" (published in English in 1966), "The Green House" (1968) and his monumental novel "Conversation in the Cathedral" (1969). All three established Vargas Llosa's reputation as an outspoken social critic. His interest in political life culminated in an unsuccessful run for the Peruvian presidency in 1990.
Vargas Llosa's novels, short stories and essays have been translated into many languages, and he has received numerous literary awards, including the 1994 Cervantes Prize.
The talk, designated as a Spencer Trask Lecture, is the final event in this year's University Public Lectures Series.

He's the Dude, ManOscar-winning actor Jeff Bridges has played everything from a small-town high-school footballer to the president. A look at his most memorable roles.
- 1/16
- Next
Jeff Bridges has a long history in Hollywood. The son of renowned actor Lloyd Bridges, he got his first screen time as an uncredited infant in the 1951 movie The Company She Keeps. Since then, Bridges' career has spanned an astonishing diversity of roles, including his legendary performance as The Dude in Joel and Ethan Coen's The Big Lebowski.
Bridges, a lifelong musician, took an even bigger step earlier this year with the release of his self-titled country album, which he says he was inspired to make after his Oscar-winning perfomance as Bad Blake in Crazy Heart. Bridges talked about his transition from film to music in a recent interview with Mother Jones. For a refresher on his storied film career, here's a look back at some of the highlights.

honestly, a sort of disappointing watch. couldve been a lovely romance but instead its a pretty ecchi with little going for it. whilst Ai is cute and some feelings were definitely developed, nothing is shown and instead does zilch at the end. An okay show to watch when you need time to pass but otherwise, lacking. personal: 4 to others: 2See full review
For a while, I've been told how great this show was. It has a very good rating on average and I've never understood why It took me a long time to figure out why this show was great. Even though its not a straight piece of perfection, it almost reached it. Amagami takes the romance genre and allows for each character to have their part which is something I really like. Whilst repetitive as it starts from the same point, each tangent has its own little story and matching route for each character. Depending on the look and personality of the character, the route it takes matches the character and allows... See full review
I dont review things as much any more, but I felt this was needed. not in terms of a review, but rather, a Warning. This isn't your normal Cutesy comedy mermaid show, infact, this show has a lot of adult themes, and occured to me why (Spoilers alert) The mermaids themselves, like everything in the anime, are based on mythology and such, and takes the role of making them live trough the extinction periods. so each character is 9 digit long in age. The show is ecchi, violent and has drug use inside, something that caught me off gaurd. I'd usually complain, but I couldn't help but fall in love with... See full review
Really, this actually exists as an actual anime and not as a H, because if it were a H, the police would come batting your door down before the openning finishes. Its meant to be innocent, but everything about this show is far from it, and its just awkward to watch. A guy goes to a school reunion, gets the piss taken out of him for being Neet and heard a rumour of a pool that sends you to another dimension at night. He soon find out after falling in and resurfacing to the sight of 5th grade girls, from which he decides to try changing the future of. considering he actually hung around with cute girls, this...

Quite possibky the best hidden gem ive seen in ages. since watching clannad, ive been waiting for something similar to pop up. Kobato, simply said, is amazing. it has that nice warm hearted anime, but its those absolute magical moments that complete this anime. music is beautiful, characters are nice and the story is fantastic. definite pick up!See full review
This OVA short series is actually really nice. I found it on a whim and decided to watch it, and its really strange yet satisfying to watch. Its focus on Motorcycles is really strange for anime, but really nice for a change. It still has the cute girls doing cute things as the main selling point, but its more original than most of the others. It still has a school setting but it focuses more on a cafe too. Neither are a strange or new thing, but its something we are used to by now. The music is extremely chilled out and the animation is nice, but what shines the most is the characters. Lively and cute... See full review
Im liking it so far, but it seems awfully over rater. I was expecting more from this but I was mislead. I like it, but not enough for it to become a favourite, though the themes and characters are something I enjoy. Shame that some are down right irritating and they commonly fill the episodes with his boring-ass speechesSee full review
Not for everyone as they are pointless additions that wont suit all, but hey, We get to see that nice bust Alicia is hiding all them clothes though yeahyeahSee full review
There isnt much to say about this one, but this will get down rated for the misunderstanding of the show. Its mocking people who play RPG's and how RPG's work. Y'know, the whole "Females wear less on higher levels" logic, and how thirsty virgins surround them in public places. Its ace, I think its funny, the girls are cute and the humour seems mint. Cant wait for the next episode!See full review
Charlotte was the one that had me interested before the season started and I must say Im very happy with it so far. Jun Maeda and P.A Works are involved, So I have high hopes that so far have been met. The music is beautiful and the animation quality is fantastic. Adorable characters with beautiful designs, and a story with promise to top it off. I would start watching this one soon, as this might be one of the better series this season Rating: 8/10See full review
I liked this and it strangely reminds me of Kiniro Mosaic but without the ultra cheesey Engrish. It wont be everyones cup of tea, A comedy, Moe, Slice of Life series with cute girls doing cute things. Just like most things in the genre, this will be just the same as most others. I thoroughly enjoy this type of anime, and I can only imagine people who enjoy the Moe,Comedy and Slice of Life would even think of going near this series. Hopefully, this stays energetic and and cute, and doesn't stray too far to being a bad show. It had a nice intro and it is Extremely vibrant in colour. A nice OP, Very cute... See full review
Hobby>Job. Something I want to realte to but can only relate to the hobby part. This show is insane, and shows something rather new. The show is insane, and has a nice touch. It is animated beautifully and the story is something new in its own way. The characters are nice but we still have more to come from the looks of things. am very happy with the detail and sounds too, I feel this could be up there in the top 500 here on A-P if it consistantly pleases. It has the right audience target and material, so its a matter of weekly excitement from now on. Good start and worth the waitch, Characters... See full review
A comedy that im sure if you have read the Synopsis, has a very strong Ecchi side. Condoms shown in the first 15 seconds, And a whole lot of boobs. It has a strange story but something that im sure anyone can handle.Actually, im pretty convinced this is meant to be one of those Near-Hentai experiences. Though, slightly enjoyable due to its rather energetic atmosphere. Will be interesting to see how things go with this show towards the end, but for now its nothing too special and pretty much the bare-breast ecchi relief for this season.See full review
First show of the season, and by golly this was the one I had my eyes on for a long time. Not only was it just the first episode, but im sure I speak for a lot of people when I say this show will dominate the season. I will warn that this show is definitely not for the younger audiences! As a Gangster themed show should be, this doesn't hold back on the back street crimes. From the first episode it shoves Blood, Anger, Violence, Sex, Drugs, Money, Guns, swords and badasses everywhere. Its perfect, I was worried that the gangsters would be a bunch of school skippers who intimidate... See full review

I dont want to be too picky about things, but in general, I feel Nisekoi is a real drag. The first season was enjoyable because it was different, and I thought a new season would make a fresh start and revive it a little bit, but It hasnt. since the first episode, it doesnt feel refreshing or anything different, and it seems completely off topic everywhere. I must say, I dont think the 2nd season is worth the watch at all in comparison to the first season. I adored Episode 8 but thats it, every other episode had me left with little to no interest and was getting slightly bored and how annoyingly dull this... See full review
Someone I met a long time ago has quite the thing for the main character, Taking a look i found it to be a Noitamina series. A particular Tag I like to see as a lot of the anime with the tags are outstanding. This is no Different. Story: 8/10 It really clicked with me. I love seeing fascinating monsters and creatures that are unusual. The whole series features fascinating creatures from start to finish, some a little generic while some really stand out and look amazing. The story is really relaxed but nice and is worth while.

I picked this anime up during the time I first got into simulcasts and went on a mad spree of watching everything as it came out. This awful show managed to get into my list and had to watch it until the end. Usually, I would Review each part and give some info, but this really isn't worth it. Its really boring, rather silly and annoying, and doesn't really do much to keep you watching. The animation is pretty bad and not on par with most of the shows, the sound if just really half done and empty, the characters are just stupid and silly. I really couldn't find myself watching this again, and this would of... See full review
As great as this season is, some shine better than others. Sound! Euphnium is easily one of the top stars this season. Story: 8/10 School clubs are a common topic, and KyoAni are going forward with another Music club hit. Instead of it being rock/pop type music, this is more Classical focused. Heading for the Nationals is the main goal, and im sure this anime will please many people who enjoyed shows such as K-On! and Your Lie In April. Animation: 9/10 Visually, its stunning and clean. the animation is fluid and i usually expect nothing less from KyoAni. Not much to say, just watch it for... See full review
I had my worrying thoughts as soon as I saw the studio taking on this show. SHAFT. As much as I like Shaft's work in terms of art and the comedies they produce, they should not be allowed to touch an existing series at all, and should be left for them to do what they do best and particularly ruin shows with their way of animating. Fortunately, this doesn't really need to be watched at all and can be skipped, but thorough watchers like myself will choose to watch this. Its an optional look in to the Sileighty drivers, and a more in depth look into the characters. This was a nice thing for me as I... See full review
Even though this is a movie, its a perfect sequel to the existing 2 stages. It has a large focus on Takumi and Mogi's relationship and fills those little holes that you have in the heart from whats going on. I won't go into too much detail with this one being as its a movie, but what I can say is that its still as solid as ever in the categories given. The story is perfect in its move forward and patching of gaps in the first two stages, the animation in both the 2D and 3D is consistently good, the sound is still top notch and the characters are still brilliant. It keeps the maturity levels high, with no... See full review
If you haven't already, here's my review for the first Initial D: http://www.anime-planet.com/users/liamb1996/reviews/18907 As a comeback, Initial D second stage continues the fantastic story of Takashi in his AE86. But how well does this do? Story: 10/10 the continuation from the first stage is fantastic. It now focuses not only on the racing, relationships of people, but also the relationship with people and their cars. the continuing story line from the last series is perfectly done, and is definitely a worth while watch for those who watched the First Stage. Animation: 10/10 The 3D... See full review
Initial D, one of the few car related anime out and it still stands as being the greatest. It captures the heart of any racing and anime fan out there, and has become the favourite of many - including myself! Story: 10/10 Well, with the little racing anime's out, the story is original and something that you will love. Focusing on Takumi, the 18 year old Tofu Delivery Driver, it shows the beginning of his rise to fame through out the Akina Pass. It's a nice watch with a big focus on the cars, but also a huge focus on the relationships of the characters. It is perfectly balanced, making this is a nice... See full review
First half is first impressions, check after for the finale! This show is a complete shocker. First off, I want to point out that the recommendations for this being similar to black bullet is very slim, And do not watch this thinking its Black Bullet Version 2. This series, in fact, is incredibly deep and emotional, and for a show that has one episode, It's kind of scary how teared up one can get from just a single episode. the show is about Androids with human spirits living and working alongside normal humans. Its a little strange but the concept is really damn cool, and they have given... See full review
Probably on the ecchi side of anime, this will be the most perverse anime this season alongside Highschool DxD BoRn. Probably has the most strange story I've seen in a while, "If you get to excited, an asteroid will hit earth and wipe out Humanity". Oh. As a spirit though, he can go back and keep trying to avoid getting "Excited", which is infact, to not look at good underwear.

First half was first impressions, check second half for opinion based on Entire series! This was a little shocking in all honesty. Catching up with Simulcasts and This season is marvelous, one of my favourites so far. Nothing has disappointed me just yet. I hav ejust gone through and watched this show's first episode, and im rather shocked. The show is about Chinese Zodiacs, a weird but nice blend to see in anime. It looks into animals wanted to become one of the main twleve which I believe is called the shengxiao. The main in this case is a Cat, and a bubbly one to say the least... See full review
A nice 5 minute fix to watch, though nothing to great. It's a more educational Anime with a nice touch of comedy around every corner to keep your attention high. It has no story, the characters aren't too special and everything is average. Its a nice change to see, and is definitely worth giving a try if you loved seitokai Yakuindomo!See full review
Probably one of the most Average series you will ever Watch in all honesty, Chronicles of the Going Home Club is still enjoyable to say the least. So what club are you going to join? the "Going Home Club" is the best answer fi you want to avoid clubs completely. Unfortunately, the Going Club is a real thing full of bubbly characters with some nice surprises. The characters, although not very original and not very memorable, are still quite nice. The voice actors given to the characters and the personalities make it different from the others, so it seperates itself from fitting in with the same... See full review
Shorts are always the things I look forward to in the new season, as they do much more in the 4 minutes given, if they utilise it properly. For me, Military was a great show and was one of the 3 shows i looked forward to during it airing. Most of the characters take that Chibi style, but can be really OTT in some cases. Its cutesy visuals and vibrant colours aren't to giggle about though. Its an intense series, that gets really crazy a lot of the time. It focuses on a Character's life after having soldiers sent to body gaurd him, as his dad is some big timer in a war. Weird, but a good enough reason for... See full review
Its probably worth noting that C3 isnt a great show, but even as the other reviewers get onto and mention, it is still enjoyable for the most part. Its a freaky show mixed in with cuteness so its a little strange to watch, but Is home to one of my favourite opennings in a show which was infact the reason I ended watching. Its weirdly sexual in some places, though not Explicit, just common Ecchi, and tries to hold a serious story with a lot of comic relief. The Story is weird but I guess a little non existent. It does exist, but the show becomes another Slice of Life with just parts randomly placed in for... See full review

By JB Clark/NEMS Daily Journal
SALTILLO – Lake Lamar Bruce may seem too low for fish, but it is the new home to more than 150,000 bluegill and red ear bream and channel catfish.
Fishing won't be allowed in the lake for another two years but in that time, the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks will be working to increase the fish size, population and diversity.
Before beginning the stocking, two different trucks stopped by the lake – past the "restricted" barriers – to inquire about the status of the lake. Others watched from the levee.
"Given its location and the people you see around watching, it's a popular place," he said. "They're ready to fish and we're looking at late spring or early summer of 2015 before we finish."
"We're just thrilled we're ahead of schedule," said Fisheries Bureau Assistant Director Larry Pugh. "The dam project is complete, we closed the valve and we got enough water to stock."
Biologists from MDWFP took truckloads of fish down what will be a boat ramp when the lake is finished and into the creek channel running through the lake. The channel has more than 10 feet of water at its deepest currently but most of the lake is still yet to be filled.
Pugh said as a rule they wait two years after stocking a lake to open it to anglers.
"The lake has to fill up, first of all," he said. "We want the fish to get enough size and we also want them to spawn twice before they are fished. We have to have not only these fish but fish behind them growing when it opens."
Before then, Biologist Tyler Stubbs said they plan to stock the smaller four-acre pond next to the lake and have fishing rodeos.
The pond can be restocked quickly and drained into the lake so MDWFP can try out different combinations or host fishing events.
This spring, Pugh said, the lake will be stocked with bass.
The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality raised the dam classification two years ago to a high hazard dam, meaning it had to meet higher standards.
It was drained so the levee could be moved and rebuilt to meet the higher standards.

WEDDING FAVORS LOVE | colorful, lovely, fabulous favor inspiration | All Hail Rebecca Thuss
I have admired Rebecca Thuss from afar for quite a long stretch now. When it comes to swoon-worthy, she is, in my estimation, a genius. Upon a visit to Rebecca's site, one finds this menu:
Now, I can speak only for myself, but you might agree with me when I say that this short, sweet list of Portfolio items is kind of paralyzing in a way, with its array of tantalizing topics, each one more enticing than the last. Where to start?!
This frozen moment can be compared to that brief moment when your beloved has just proposed, and you are, for a second, dumbfounded, with an acute case of shock, delight and this is the biggest decision of my life but I need to make it in the shortest period of time manifesting all at once on your face. Or maybe that's a bit extreme of a comparison. But whatev. No matter, as this period of reaction is short-lived, in both cases. What takes over – back to Rebecca Thuss now – is an unparalleled excitement coupled with a furious exploration of every nook and cranny held within those carefully and cleanly titled categories.
Listed among her many enviable capabilities are Prop & Set Styling, Wedding Design, Event Design and Crafting…
Wow. Every one of those skills is something I think most of us would be pleased as punch to do for a living ourselves.
Little boxes, on the hillside, little boxes, filled with ticky tacky…
These two, above and below, bring back thoughts of this oldie but goodie DIY project.
Want your wedding to be floral-focused? Then these little pink favor boxes could be the perfect finishing touch on your big day. And, speaking of flower power, these gowns will fit that theme, not to mention your shape, expertly.
I adore the favor boxes below; they offer a fun, rustic feel, and the images affixed to the box tops – each one different from the last – are filled with warm colors and tones. Plus, I'm lovin' the twine and tags, of course. Attention to detail is always admired and appreciated… and if you have the time and desire to do it, I wholeheartedly champion the effort (and I'd love to attend your wedding, as well!).
Cherries! Little scalloped edged bags of transparent vellum, filled with (what I consider to be delicious) deep red cherries. So simple, so pretty… it's perfect for the quick and easy favor, but still quite upscale and dignified.
{ Images: Rebecca Thuss }
Feeling inspired? Stay tuned for more posts about other terrific ideas and sources for making your own, or at least semi-homemade, wedding favors. There are so many out there, it's kind of unreal, and definitely overwhelming. But, as always, my goal is to track down the best of the best, or invent on my own when I feel like getting crafty.
For now, here are a couple of handpicked resources where you can find yourself some of your very own perfect favor packaging supplies…
~ Wedding Things (some samples: purple, orange and brown)
And always remember, have fun with it. You're throwing a huge party, and, besides getting married, the point of it is to have a grand ol' time… so make sure you invite yourself!

Posted: 23 October 2012 at 9:33pm
I need to have some clarification on this matter. I have been a good friend to a sister whe was a non muslim and recently reverted to Islam Alhamdulillah. When she was a non-muslim, she cooked and ate non-halal food. Now when she cooked she always offered me food and I have no problem with that until one day another friend said I cannot eat food she cook before of the utensils and pans she uses.
1. can I eat her cookings ?
2. does she has to throw all her pans and utensils and buy new ones ?
please assist me.

Assalamu alaikum wr. wb.
1. Definitely you can eat her food. There is no valid reason y can not eat her food.
2.Islam is easy, so don't make it difficult. There is no basis that you have to do that. So she doesn't need to throw away that utensil, washing the utensil thouroughly is enough ((just in case there is residu of pork fat etc, asuming the your sister cook pork before she converted). Moreover there a teaching of Islam that we have pay attention, "waste", islam dosn't like we waste "things", of course including utensil.

Thank you Semar for your explanation.
I was ok with it until people asked me and that makes me in doubt. Which once I have doubt, I cant eat food that she prepared.
The sad thing is when she offered food to other sisters, they will ask her, what utensils she uses. This really makes her sad and she has this thought of why Islam treats newly converted like this ?
Now I have been clarified, alhamdulillah thank you very much.

Uploading Executables when Uploading isnt an Option
Recently I needed a way of building an executable on a remote machine using only a keyboard. Basically I needed to "type out an executable" (think of it as I had a very basic "ah-hem" shell that I wanted to make more secure). Because my target host was Windows based, it is not as easy as uploading and compiling from source. I could of course simply use tricks found at http://commandlinekungfu.com to download the file, however I wanted to find a solution where this system didn't create any outgoing requests that resulted in the downloading of an executable. The technique described below is already being used by some very common cyber-security tools such as Fasttrack and sqlmap. It is an interesting solution, one that might help you out with a project in the future.
The problem is that you cant simply type out an executable binary. There are multiple characters that are not printable ascii, so your binary will fail if you try. However there are some tools that will allow us to convert the already compiled binary into ascii printable debug scripts, which can be reassembled using the native debug command on windows machines. Thus creating a "portable" binary that is Ascii printable, therefore gives us the ability to "type out an executable"
In order to do this we need a few things:
The Executable we want to transfer
UPX Packer (not needed but helpful)
dbgtool (Python / Windows)
For this article we will be using the windows Ncat binary (http://nmap.org/ncat/) and since my machine is OSX, the python based tools in our example.
Ncat is a feature-packed networking utility which will read and write data across a network from the command line.
Ncat was written for the Nmap Project as a much-improved reimplementation of the venerable Netcat. It uses both TCP
and UDP for communication and is designed to be a reliable back-end tool to instantly provide network connectivity to
other applications and users. Ncat will not only work with IPv4 and IPv6 but provides the user with a virtually limitless
number of potential uses.
Because our target is a windows host, we need to download and unpack nmap for Windows (ncat now is packaged with nmap). Because we are going to communicating this executable via ?keyboard? or some other slow method, we would be smart to compress this file as much as possible before we convert it. We will need to use a packer that self decompresses and retains the ability to execute.
UPX is a free, portable, extendable, high-performance executable packer for several different executable formats. It achieves an excellent compression ratio and offers very fast decompression. Your executables suffer no memory overhead or other drawbacks for most of the formats supported, because of in-place decompression.
Install UPX on your system:
OSX: sudo port install upx
Debian: sudo apt-get install upx-nrv
Windows: Download
As you can see below, ncat can be compressed over 32% - totally worth it. (be warned, UPX packing executables decreases the stealthyness)
hevnsnt$ upx -9 -o ncat-upx.exe ncat.exe
Ultimate Packer for eXecutables
Copyright (C) 1996 - 2009
UPX 3.05w Markus Oberhumer, Laszlo Molnar & John Reiser Apr 27th 2010
File size Ratio Format Name
-------------------- ------ ----------- -----------
175104 -> 57344 32.75% win32/pe ncat-upx.exe
Next we need to convert the UPX packed binary into a ASCII debug script, using the dbtool listed above:
python ./dbgtool.py -i ncat-upx.exe -o ncat-upx.scr
Take a second and open the ncat-upx.scr in whatever your favorite text editor is. As you can see, you now have a portable executable that is in printable ASCII.
Upload nc_upx.scr to the target Windows system (either by pasting in your shell, or however you need to do it) and then reconvert your binary to an executable with the following command: debug<DEBUGSCRIPT.scr
There will be some debug output such as this:
e df00 57 53 32 5f 33 32 2e 64 6c 6c
e df0c 4c 6f 61 64 4c 69 62 72 61 72 79 41
e df1a 47 65 74 50 72 6f 63 41 64 64 72 65 73 73
e df2a 56 69 72 74 75 61 6c 50 72 6f 74 65 63 74
This debug script will write a new file named #TEMP#. Simply rename this file to ncat-upx.exe and execute. Better get your ncat-fu ready, because your super over complicated, slow, ninja file upload is complete!

A Perfect Planet
Student Exploration
A Time Ago In A Galaxy Real Close
How old is the Earth and how did it form? What a great question, but how do you figure something like that out? Scientists have worked on this question for about as long as there have been "scientists". For evidence, they look at the formation and distribution of different rocks on Earth comparing them to the composition of other planets in our solar system, as well as, our Moon, comets, and meteors (now they are beginning to look at other planetary systems too). This information is interpreted through mathematics and in the light of all known physical laws of the Universe, forming a reasonable scenario about how our Earth came to be. The theory has changed quite a bit overtime, and it continues to change. However the broad strokes of what happened are pretty solid. Watch the below video to find out about the broad strokes.
- A Perfect Planet - The Formation of the Earth at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mcC8kFacrk
Now that you are familiar with the general story, read this to find out about some of the finer points that scientist are still working out.
- Snowball Earth at *http://geology.about.com/od/controversies/a/snowballearth.htm
Extension Investigation
Use the resources below to answer the following questions:
- Where did the matter to form the sun come from? What physical force caused gases to concentrate to a density sufficient for nuclear fusion to take place or, to put it another way, what caused "the Sun to light up"?? How old do scientists estimate the sun is?
- How much of the matter in our solar system was not pulled into the sun? What happened to this matter?
- What do scientists feel caused the Earth to become a molten mass? What in the distribution of heavy and light elements on and in the Earth makes scientists feel the Earth had to be molten at one point?
- What do scientists see banded iron rock formations as evidence of? How does this evidence affect theories of how life on Earth developed?
- What new research has led scientists to believe the Earth was drier when it formed than was previously thought?

Panasonic Whisper Control Humidity Sensing Fan/Light Switch - FV-WCCS2-A (Light Almond)
For the switch to sense dew (condensation), the room will need to show visible signs of wetness attaching to surfaces, such as steam on walls / mirrors / fixtures. Visible steam in the air is not the problem, the problem occurs when moisture in the air becomes too heavy and the air cannot support the moisture. The moisture then moves to surfaces (this is the dew point), triggering the switch sensors. The remarkable Whisper Control fan switch is constantly checking the air for condensation. At the right time the switch will turn ON your fan and run the fan to clear the room.

Reviews for Creamy Crab Soup
"This is a great crab soup!!! I did not use the imitation crab. (I'm a Marylander, and this is against all we believe in when it comes to crab meat.) Anyway, very easy recipe. I will definitely keep this one!!"
"I made this soup and loved it! My husband could not stop raving over it. I used cream of clery soup instead of cream of asparagus. I added one small can of Green Giant niblets corn in the last few minutes of cooking; since we are not crazy about corn in soups. Any amount of can corn works just as well as frozen and does not need thawing. This makes a large pot and we ate it for two days. I also shared with a friend. She and her husband loved it and she asked for the recipe to make it for family and friends who come from out of town. I have a great recipe for crab soup that a friend shared a few years ago, but this one is much better and not nearly as much work to make. Yes it is definitely a keeper and will be used many times over in the future."

Following better-than-expected fiscal Q1 resultsfrom IT services firm Infosys (INFY) this morning, I spoke with the company's head of its North America operations, Ashok Vemuri, who said his region, and mostly the U.S., was the standout performer, rising 12% in revenue while many other regions slumped.
Vemuri credited general economic improvement for leading to a snap-back in investment in the U.S. By contrast, Europe, for example, is exhibiting a delayed impact for IT spending from the financial sector crises of the last couple years.
"IT sort of is reflecting Europe's troubles with a delayed reaction. Contracts are getting kicked all the way upstairs to the CEO level, and that's slowing things down."
Vemuri said manufacturing and finance were particularly weak among its European clientele.
In the states, what is driving upside are projects that were once discretionary but are becoming more and more "core" investments for companies. He noted mobile device strategies, such as plugging smartphones into corporate IT systems. Data Analytics is also becoming more essential, as exhibited by seven new deals with retail sector clients in the quarter that mostly reflected spending on analytics, for things such as studying customer behavior. Those kinds of new essentials are moving the company away from dependence on its traditional tasks of supporting corporate IT production environments and writing application software.
I pointed out that infrastructure spending has been weak for things such as networking equipment, as evinced by the disappointing Q1 reports from Juniper Networks (JNPR) and F5 Networks (FFIV) and others.
While not refuting the point, he noted that there was a shakeup going on in infrastructure contracts, with many things up for re-bid, a fact he was optimistic would lead to wins for Infosys.
I asked if there would be a corporate refresh in PCs this year given poor PC trends this far. "A bit," he said.
When I asked Vemuri what will drive this year's momentum, with the projection for revenue growth of 6% to 10%, above the Street consensus for 6.4%, he said a lot would hinge on getting new talent that can "speak the new language" of cloud computing, mobility, and analytics. But that, in turn, will hinge on regulation regarding immigration reform, not just in the States but also in Australia, Canada and elsewhere.
Infosys shares are up $2.58, almost 6%, at $46.62. The report has also lifted shares of competitor Cognizant Technology Solutions (CTSH), currently up 20 cents at $71.25. Shares of Accenture (ACN) are down 18 cents at $75.02, and shares of International Business Machines (IBM) are off 33 cents at $192.47.

The "right decision"to a retriever is generally that decision which feels good or is the most convenient.So its the trainers job to teach the dog that what feels good is that which pleases the trainer.

Senior wins national playwrights competition
Posted October 18, 2000; 02:50 p.m.
Catherine Keyser, a Princeton University senior, has been named a winner of the National Young Playwrights Festival. Her play, "Welcome Home, Virginia Woolf," will be performed at the Miranda Theater in New York on Nov. 3 at 2 p.m.
Keyser, who is majoring in English, has been writing plays since the age of 10 and has won state, national and international awards for her work. The National Young Playwrights honor was awarded by Young Playwrights, Inc., which was founded by Stephen Sondheim. The organization offers young writers the opportunity to have their work evaluated by theater professionals and produced off-Broadway.
"Welcome Home, Virginia Woolf" depicts the interactions of three generations of women confronted with questions of identity, purpose, and creativity. A young woman faces her great-aunt, who is convinced that she is Virginia Woolf. In the process, she learns a great deal about herself and her aspirations.
The Miranda Theater is located 259 West 30th St., between 7th and 8th Avenues. The production is open to the public, but reservations are required. To make reservations, contact Rebecca Sheir of Young Playwrights, Inc. 212-307-1140.

has anyone found any kind of variations in either the micro machines or action fleet line for episode I toys?
as we all know, the classic line was full of em, (sheesh, practically every released vehicle in the 1st three waves had some kind of variation).
the only episode I variation which i am aware of, is that in some european mm set IV, the sith infiltrator was issued in the trophy maul painted version, in lieu of the green/grey tones used in the common released version.
unfortunately, due to the inadequate shipping and stocking of the later released wave toys, there was never enough stock around to compare different packages to each other.
i was just wondering if anyone knows of any variations,

There's no denying Life if Pi is a visual wonder, a milestone in both 3D and digital creature creation. It immerses you in teen castaway Pi's tale of high seas survival - in the tale of how, having abandoned ship after the freighter carrying his family and a menagerie of animals from India to Canada goes down in a Pacific storm, he must share a lifeboat with a bengal tiger.
And no, they aren't about to bond. Just drift for 227 days, through storms, becalmed heat, and surreal encounters with other wildlife.
That's the central section of Yann Martel's 2001 novel, which was both acclaimed (it won the 2002 Man Booker prize) and popular (it sold seven million copies). But it's had a rocky voyage to the screen - directors M. Night Shyamalan, Alfonso Cuaron and Jean-Pierre Jeunet jumped ship along the way before Ang Lee set sail.
On paper, Lee would seem well qualified. He's proved a master of literary adaptations (Sense and Sensibility, Brokeback Mountain), and magical realism (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and growling digital creatures (Hulk).
That experience and Lee's trademark cool restraint are all brought to bear in a movie that suggests the word "unfilmable" has had its day. But as dazzling as Life of Pi is - its animation of its tiger is utterly convincing but for a land-based sequence later in the movie; the ship-sinking sequence is breathtaking - it's a film of occasional clunks in its storytelling.
Much of those can be heard in the framing scenes of an adult Pi telling his remarkable story, "which will make you believe in the existence of God", to a Martel-like writer. It did that in the book too, but it certainly breaks the spell on screen.
Meanwhile, the screenplay has excised much of the book's grim displays of nature's cruelty. A Darwinian battle aboard the lifeboat between four animals remains, but the story's darker heart is in little evidence.
Reduced too, are the novel's contemplations of comparative religion. The charming if plodding introductory scenes in India explain that young Pi, born a Hindu, has embraced Christianity and Islam too. Which might sound like extra insurance for the perilous voyage that follows, but the film is largely spiritually innocuous.
That said, there's something quite zen about how it looks once Pi and his feline fiend are out on the ocean.
Those who thought they would never swap their reading glasses for 3D goggles should really see this. If the Best Picture Oscar was just for best pictures, then this is the one to beat.

First I just want to say I love reading your articles Mark, and looking forward to reading about your Occilated hunt. Also loved the victory pancakes article. We do a victory breakfast when we take kids out hunting(and even if they don't get a bird).
I know my biggest stuggle is also if they aren't talking should I stay or go. In fact the 5th season here in WI Mr. Lovett came over for a hunt and we had that happen. I had been seeing lots of birds on the property but the question kept being asked between the 2 of us, "What should we do?" We ended up hitting 2 more properties and did see a couple of gobblers, but the real hen won out over us. The problem with moving too much is how many birds you bump, but you always have the possibility of finding a hot bird somewhere. But by the 7th week I had been hunting(including a mentor hunt & youth hunt) I didn't have too much sit left in me.
Thanks for participating on the forum, it has been a pleasure reading your posts.

Today would have been our 18th:

• I thought of you today, but that is nothing new.
• I thought about you yesterday and days before that too.
• I think of you in silence, I often speak your name.
• All I have are memories and pictures in a frame.
• Your memory is a keepsake, from which I'll never part.
• God has you in his arms...I have you in my heart
Any suggestion I offer is intended as friendly advice based solely on my own experience. Please consult your doctor for professional guidance.

Northbridge man charged with hurting toddler
WESTBOROUGH, Mass. — A 29-year-old Northbridge man has been held on $50,000 bail after pleading not guilty to fracturing the skull of his girlfriend's 2-year-old daughter.
Prosecutors say Rowan Cook appeared in Westborough District Court on Monday on a charge of assault and battery on a child resulting in substantial injury.
Authorities say Cook lived in the same home with his girlfriend and the girl.
They say on Sept. 9 he was left caring for the toddler while her mother left to pick up a friend.
The Telegram & Gazette (http://bit.ly/15SYlCj [1] ) reports that prosecutors say he shook and slapped the girl after she threw food against the wall during a feeding.
The child remains in rehabilitative care because she suffered a significant loss of motor function on her left side.

Program promotes health benefits of walking
Posted March 25, 2009; 03:35 p.m.

A different sordid era is the setting of PORTLAND STAGE COMPANY's 2012 noir-age opener, Trouble is My Business (January 24-February 19). In adaptations of two Raymond Chandler short stories, private eye Philip Marlowe dodges thugs, crooked cops, and dangerous dames. A little closer to spring, PSC stages two one-acts from master of lyrical sadness Tennessee Williams in Hidden Tennessee, featuring lonely teens and Southern ladies.
Things would seem to be slightly more requited in Becky Shaw (January 26-February 12), a comedy of dating, devotion, and fetishes to play at MAD HORSE. The company will later mount Paul Zindel's wrenching tale of family dysfunction The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds (March 15-April 1), and a comedy about a downward-spiraling amateur acting class, Circle Mirror Transformation (May 3-20). This last show is apparently the play of the moment; it also runs at the THEATER PROJECT (January 20-February 19, in repertory with the company's Winter Cabaret) and the GASLIGHT THEATER, in Hallowell (March 2-10).
The protagonist of Faith Healer (April 5-22) is also a student of acting, at least enough so to elicit belief in his powers. Brian Friel's Rashomon-style mediation on truth and faith goes up as a production of the AMERICAN IRISH REPERTORY ENSEMBLE.
Belief figures centrally in the conflict of the GOOD THEATER's first show of 2012, Next Fall (January 25-February 19). In this Maine premiere, one half of a gay couple has faith in god, while the other is an atheist. Good Theater will follow with Neil Simon's musical comedy Little Me (March 7-April 1), which it first launched 10 years ago and which will again feature the virtuoso comic Stephen Underwood as seven men in the life of one woman.
Anything that's comic in Harold Pinter's The Birthday Party (February 24-March 11) is also strange and dangerous. The playwright's first full-length work, about varieties of menace in a boarding house at what may or may not be a young man's birthday party, goes up as part of ACORN PRODUCTIONS' Studio Series.
Two larger-than-life women dominate the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN MAINE's 2012 season: Eurydice (February 2-5), whose husband seeks to retrieve her from the land of the dead; and Hedda Gabler (April 20-29), Ibsen's quintessential force of domestic destruction.
Spouses are also at odds in the PUBLIC THEATER's The Language Archive (January 27-February 5), in which a linguist can't figure out the right things to say to his wife. Later in the spring, the Public Theater mounts a bio-show about New York Abstract Expressionist Mark Rothko, in the Tony Award-winning Red (March 16-25).
A slightly earlier classic era of New York is the swinging setting of Ain't Misbehavin' (March 23-April 15), a musical homage to Fats Waller. It plays at SEACOAST REPERTORY THEATRE, followed by Alan Ayckbourn's cruelly comic Things We Do For Love (May 4-20), a farce about fiancees and affairs.
A couple has more harrowing problems in DRAMATIC REPERTORY COMPANY, A Nervous Smile (March 22-April 1), namely one unthinkable decision to make. The company will follow with Life During Wartime, a comedy of love and deceit in a security system salesman.
Deceit is of course the central currency of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (February 24-March 10) at LYRIC MUSIC THEATRE, as well as in the conspiracy trial of A Few Good Men (March 9-25) at PORTLAND PLAYERS. Later in the company's season, deceit leads to murder, then to a boy's catatonia, then to his international pinball stardom, in what might still be the weirdest musical of all time, The Who's Tommy (May 11-27).
But really, is deaf-dumb-blind British pinball playing any weirder than what happens in the heart of our own great nation? Find out at the CITY THEATER, in The Great American Trailer Park Musical (February 17-26).

I know this looks like a good start on a sleeve for my first NaKniSweMoDo sweater and we still have a week and a half until 2009. I feel the need to swatch this by knitting a part of the sweater to figure out how the cable and rib pattern I'm also improvising as I swatch will actually work. This is my third version and I'm debating if it still pulls the purl stitches to much. I really don't want them to look like openwork when it's done and blocked.
I knit and washed a flat ribbed swatch. I plan to use the change in gauge there to figure how my gauge on this sleeve and, by extension, the garment will change. I used the weaver's trick of making an outline of my swatch pre-washing so I now know this Alpaca/Jacob blend bulky yarn will get wider and shorter.
My master plan is to base a sweater on a sleeve whose stretched dimensions look good when worn, allowing for the % change that will happen with washing and blocking. I count on the elongated chained cables I've alternated with a plain rib not to change that % too much.
I'll figure my numbers for a saddle-shouldered (with a sleeve cable continuing up the saddle) EPS from this derived gauge. The cowl/turtle neck of 2x2 rib should echo the 4 1/2 to 5" of plain rib at hem and cuff. I'm aiming for something fitted, but not too clingy, to offset the bulky nature of this yarn, though in slightly-stretched ribs I get more like 4 to 4.5 than 3 stitches per inch.
Wish me luck. I'm flying by the seat of my pants here.
Here is today's morning newspaper article on Seattle weather and another photo gallery or two. Keep in mind that

I know he was addressing the Army at West Point but today I was reminded of a few of his words as I thought about todays election that somewhat apply. Go exercise your right to vote today and remember these words as you cast you ballot:
"The long gray line has never failed us. Were you to do so, a million ghosts in olive drab, in brown khaki, in blue and gray, would rise from their white crosses, thundering those magic words: Duty, Honor, Country."
This is the greatest country on the face of the earth.
Happy election day!
