Editor's review
Though Firefox has drawn in a consistent user base with many of its releases, some people may be surprised that they can now get this new version. People may want to find out more about Firefox 64-bit before they opt to try it out for themselves. This is actually one of the first browsers to ever attempt to create a 64-bit version, so some of it will be experimental. There are a few reasons why this system is drawing in attention from savvy users out there. They realize that Firefox 64-bit carries quite a bit of potential.
New Features Brought in with This Version
There are a few features that will set Firefox 64-bit apart from many other types of browsers out there. It offers people a great chance to get more memory space out of their browser. This will provide people with more opportunities to use additional tools within their browser and potentially get more functionality as well. This should appeal to users who enjoy trying out many different plug-ins and add-on features with their browsers. They can manage quite a few different types of extras when they opt to utilize the Firefox 64-bit system.
What to Watch for with Firefox 64-Bit
Users may want to be wary of a few issues that they could encounter when they try out Firefox 64-bit for themselves. This is a bulky browser to use, so it may put a considerable amount of strain on some PCs and tablets out there. This means that the browser itself may not run as smoothly as other versions that people are used to using. There have also been reports indicating that Firefox 64-bit has some failings when it comes to using HTML5. This means that users may not be able to access certain sites or even view some videos like they could before. The Firefox 64-bit program offers some breakthroughs that a lot of users will want to try for themselves.

The two sides need each other to succeed. Southern Sudan needs the North's pipeline to get its oil to market. Northern Sudan needs oil money to help pay its bills. Both need foreign investment and the North in particular needs debt relief. They have a better chance of winning international support if they are at peace.

Lamb Steaks with Potato Cakes + Roasted Tomatoes
Lamb steaks with potato cakes + roasted tomatoes
Serves 4
4 leg lamb steaks, trimmed (125g approx each)
olive oil, for brushing
lemon pepper, to sprinkle
1 punnet cherry tomatoes, halved
Potato Cakes
900 g Desiree potatoes, peeled
3 green onions, finely chopped
1½ tbsp baby capers
zest of 1 lemon
3 tsp lemon juice
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/3 cup finely chopped parsley
50 g butter, melted
Herbed Sour Cream
½ cup light sour cream
1/3 cup chopped mixed herbs (mint, chives and parsley)
Potato Cakes - Place the green onions, capers, lemon zest and juice, beaten egg and parsley in a large bowl. Just prior to cooking, grate the potato into another bowl. Squeeze the liquid from the potato, using your hands. Add the potato to the bowl and stir the mixture to combine. Spoon 12 even sized spoonfuls of the potato mixture onto a large paper lined baking tray. Flatten the potato cakes to about 7 cm rounds. Brush with half the butter. Bake 15 minutes then turn, brush with remaining butter and bake a further 15 minutes until cooked and golden.
Roasted Tomatoes - Place the halved tomatoes on a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper. Season with salt and ground black pepper. Bake in oven preheated to 200ºC the oven with the potatoes, for 15 minutes or until soft. Set aside.
Herbed Sour Cream - Combine the sour cream and herbs and set aside.
Meanwhile, pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Lightly brush with olive oil and sprinkle each side with lemon pepper. Heat a char-grill or non-stick frypan. Cook for 3-4 minutes each side or until cooked to desired doneness, and rest the steaks for 5 minutes.
Serve with the potato cakes topped with the roasted tomatoes. Drizzle with the herb sour cream.

NEW DELHI,: Pakistani troops fired at forward Indian posts along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir, but there was no loss of life or damage to property, the Press Trust of India said on Sunday.
It quoted an Indian defence ministry spokesman as alleging that Pakistani soldiers used small and medium range weapons as they resorted to unprovoked firing on several Indian posts along the LoC in Krishnagati forward belt in Poonch sector on Saturday night.
"There was heavy firing, which continued till late into the night, from across the border prompting Indian troops to retaliate," PTI said, quoting the spokesman.
The report further accused Pakistan Rangers of violating the truce along the LoC six times this month.

The Celebrity Rehab 2 cast member who's made the biggest impression on me so far this season is former Guns N' Roses drummer Steven Adler. I always figured a guy whose drug abuse was severe enough to get him kicked out of GNR--not exactly the most teetotaling band in the world--was a hopeless case, a loser, a wastoid and a waste of space. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but it's how I genuinely felt. It's probably how a lot of people felt before watching Celebrity Rehab 2.
But on the show, Steven turned out to be a surprisingly sympathetic character--childlike and gregarious, willing to show vulnerability, abundantly friendly to his fellow patients, sweet and loving to his wife, trying to recover from a drug-related stroke, and battling horrific childhood demons that could make anyone considering picking up a syringe or pipe (for starters, his mother kicked him out of the house at age 11 upon his stepfather's orders, dumping his boyhood belongings in the street and changing the locks).
Steven also broke down on camera on Celebrity Rehab, discussing what he'd lost due to drugs--not just a job drumming for the biggest rock band on the planet, but also his friendship with his ex-bandmate Slash. The moment when he looked longingly at an '80s framed GNR photo and cried out, "I want my best friend Slash back," it was almost too much to watch. (But if you want to watch it, go HERE.)It was hard to watch because it was real. Unlike most scenes on reality shows.
Yes, Celebrity Rehab is real REALITY, people. Which means it doesn't necessarily have a happy ending. Real life doesn't always work out that way.Case in point: This week, Steven pleaded no contest to a heroin possession charge in the hopes of avoiding jail time by entering a treatment program. Another drug treatment program. Apparently there is a lot more work to be done where Steven's concerned--more than Dr. Drew can pull off during the course of a brief VH1 Celebreality series.
Steven is scheduled to appear in court on December 12 to determine if he is eligible for drug treatment instead of jail. I personally wish him luck. It would be nice if he could get his happy ending after all, and get his best friend back.

As you know from here, I am not much of a cook so I like uncomplicated, easy, and can do with my eyes closed kind of recipes. This one fits the requirements perfectly.My Christmas beignets. I like to think of them as a 'hybrid beignet'. A beignet that you would find in the heart of the French Quarter in New Orleans, combines with a donut hole that you would find at the closest Dunkin Donuts down the road, with a sprinkle of peppermint candy.
Grab a can of biscuits, some oil and powdered sugar. A can of 10 biscuits will yield 20 small beignets.
Step 1
Heat your oil. For a small pan I used 2 1/2 cups of cooking oil. The temperature setting should be between medium and high heat. I imagine you could also use a fryer for this. I don't have one....I don't cook.
Step 2
Open your biscuits. Tear apart 1 biscuit into 2 pieces. Flatten each piece in your hand into a circle shape. Drop pieces into your oil.
Step 3
Leave in oil mixture for just a minute or two on each side. You want them to be a golden brown color. If they brown too quickly your oil temperature is too high and they will not be cooked inside. If they don't brown within 2 minutes, your oil temperature is too low.
Step 4
Remove from pan and place on a paper towel to absorb the oil.
Move them to another plate or platter ( or remove the paper towel) and sprinkle a generous amount of powdered sugar on the top , works best if you use a sifter.
Step 6
Put them on the table and watch them disappear
I also love to serve them with some hot chocolate.....a family favorite recipe from my mother in-law.
So, I hope whether you're having a few of these Christmas beignets (okay, maybe more then a few) , or eating something else Christmas morning, that you enjoy and savory each magical moment.
Do you cook a big breakfast Christmas morning or keep it simple like me?
Speaking of magical, don't forget to visit these bloggers who have some other last minute tips you won't want to miss!

Rubber Chicken Scratchings: Farewell, DECC Arena, we shared some rockin' (though sticky) memories
Back in the '80s, I used to work at the Arena and, interestingly enough, "driving the Zamboni across the parking lot" was a euphemism for an activity we spent most of our lunch breaks engaged in.By: Brian Matuszak, Budgeteer News
So I see the Northland is getting ready to retire a local legend. No, not Denny Anderson's toupee. It's the DECC, short for the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center. (Good thing they didn't go with their first name for the place: the Duluth International Convention Center — that's an acronym that would even make Don Ness blush.)
If you're a veteran Twin Ports resident, you know that the DECC used to be called the Arena. In fact, there's still a portion of us who refuse to call it anything else.
We're set in our ways. It's the same reason we refuse to call the West End "Lincoln Park," or Chip Cravaack "qualified."
So, for the remainder of this week's column, I shall refer to that wonderful facility as the Arena. It's easier for me! (Coincidentally, that is how Jim Oberstar is handling things these days: "I don't think I will call this Transportation Subcommittee meeting to order this morning. I'd rather sit here in my bathrobe, wash down this S'mores Pop-Tart with some Colt 45 and enjoy the day. It's easier for me!")
Yes, the good folks down at the Arena are already packing up the stale popcorn and Polarenas as they prepare to turn off the lights and drive the ol' Zamboni across the parking lot to a newer and shinier location.
Back in the '80s, I used to work at the Arena and, interestingly enough, "driving the Zamboni across the parking lot" was a euphemism for an activity we spent most of our lunch breaks engaged in, especially if we ate several boxes of stale popcorn and our weight in Polarenas prior to work.
Now, I know that comment sounds like I worked in the glorious world of Arena administration, but actually I was on the labor crew — more specifically the overnight labor crew.
We were the guys who set up for events and then cleaned up after them. For five years, I swept and mopped and wiped up after you filthy patrons of the Arena.
There were tons of events back in the day — from UMD hockey to the Shrine Circus to the home show to the Ice Capades — and I loved every minute of it! Seriously, this was a fun job.
After rock concerts, you could cruise the parking lot and find unopened cases of beer! (On a related note, I used to show up early for work on these days and fool the ushers into letting me in for free, so I could take in fantastic shows like Pat Benatar, the Tubes, Sammy Hagar, Huey Lewis and the News, and — don't judge — Barry Manilow.)
And, in the Arena stands after a particularly rowdy show, it was not unusual to find some cold, hard cash half-buried in piles of puke. (Again, don't judge: Money that stinks of puke still spends like money.)
I've cleaned up after symphony concerts, wrestling matches (oftentimes, it was difficult to distinguish which audience was messier), world curling championships and boat shows.
I also occasionally got to make the ice — the best job there ever was: 10 minutes of work and three hours of waiting around — and took care of simple maintenance tasks around the building, such as cleaning every single acoustic tile in the Arena.
In fact, I spent one horrifying summer climbing up shaky scaffolding that went from the cold cement floor straight up to the ceiling. I would clamber up the side in the morning, spending the rest of the day taking down tiles, scrubbing them, and then putting them back into place.
After one section was completed, the crew on the floor would wheel us over to the next section. As I think back on this particular Arena task, I don't think it was worth the $3.15 an hour … but, what the hey, I got a column out of it!
I spent many memorable years at the Arena, being able to get a unique backstage view of all the activities, and it will be sad to see it close up.
Oh, sure, the official word is that it will still be used for events, but we all know how that goes. I'm afraid it won't be too long before the DECC is like Denny's toupee, shuffling around and trying to look busy as it counts down the hours 'til the end of the line.
Come to think of it, that's how we used to finish up our overnight shift, too.
Brian Matuszak has been difficult and demanding since February 2008. He is co-founder of Renegade Comedy Theatre and founder of Rubber Chicken Theater, which only has two more weekends left of its latest holiday revue at The Venue at Mohaupt Block. (Check out www.rubberchickentheater.com for more info.) Chip Cravaack's crew came to check us out opening weekend and declared: "I can't afford a Rubber Chicken T-shirt."

A map of known and potential impacts of the BP Deepwater Horizon oil disaster.
In the three years since the BP Deepwater Horizon oil disaster, scientists have seen impacts ranging from visibly oiled birds and sea turtles to sick dolphins and dying corals.
Determining the full extent of the impacts from the oil spill will take time, and researchers are just beginning to release their findings. This map illustrates impacts they've documented in the region so far, including fish with lesions, impacted bluefin tuna spawning habitat and shifts in whale shark abundance and distribution.

Product Type: Samsung digital cameras
Newest Review: ... you can take some really high quality images with the samsung as it is a 13.6 megapixel camera! I've taken this camera with me on holid... more
Samsung L313 - I never go anywhere without it!

Advantages: High quality images- especially of close ups, beauty retouch feature, great battery life
Disadvantages: Difficult to control settings for first time users, otherwise no other complaints
I've had this camera for a couple of years now, although it was over £100 at the time when I purchased I am aware it is available in Argos now for around £99.99. The camera is quite small, I'd say its bulkier than the slimmer camera's but it is still something you could keep in your pocket.
I'd recommend this camera to amateur photographers as it has a wide range of features you can explore and improve your skill with the camera, and when you're ready you can take some really high quality images with the samsung as it is a 13.6 megapixel camera! I've taken this camera with me on holiday, on nights out, day trips and for fun photoshoots with my friends. For self portraits I'd recommend buying a tripod which you can slot into the bottom, this keeps the camera upright and still while you pose with your family/friends if there is no one to take the picture.
You will need to buy your own SD memory card - mine has 2GB of space which holds thousands of pictures (depending on which quality images you go for, if you want higher quality images they have a bigger file size so you'll need a memory card with more space).
The controls are found on a wheel near the button on the top of the camera which takes pictures. Rotating the wheel gives you different options - my favourite is beauty shot for an automatic retouch of facial features which I regularly use when I'm doing fun photoshoots for friends. You can change the resolution of the pictures, flash can be off on or on auto and self timer function is also available. You can have a play around with colours eg. black and white, exposure and contrast etc.
All of these features become easier with usage. The battery life is great so make sure you charge your camera when its discharged until its fully charged and never leave the battery in for ages when it isn't being used. Good video quality too!
My favourite camera so far (I've had a fair few), great for my passion in close up photography produces high quality images! Oh and smile shot is a fantastic feature- smile and the picture automatically is taken!! x
Summary: Good camera to start off with for keen photographers of all ages

By KateCon912 (Baltimore, MD) on Sep 25, 2013
Comments: I ordered this treadmill on Sept 1st and got it by Sept 12th. My husband and I assembled it ourselves and assembly was not hard at all. The hardest part was carrying it up the stairs to the 3rd floor (We live in a town home). We had to take it up in pieces and the base is extremely heavy!! By the time we had it up the stairs (his father had to come help, I was useless) and assembled we wished we would have just paid the $250 or whatever to have it carried up and assembled for us. The treadmill works flawlessly! It is very user friendly and the price was perfect. I run on it for about 20-30 minutes per day and I have no complaints! I highly recommend it!
Filled with features that serve up comfort and performance, the C 700 treadmill has convenient 1-Touch™ speed and incline controls, a 2.75 CHP DurX™ Commercial Motor, and innovative DualFlex™ cushioning that protects your joints and back. From display to deck, this treadmill offers technology-inspired amenities for customized workout experience. With an innovative SpaceSaver® design, this treadmill folds up and out of the way after your workout.

- Using a querystring to display pages themed to your web site.

When a Bible Contradiction Isn't a Contradiction
Last week's guest post by Darrell Bock talked about the challenging issue of apparent contradictions in the Bible. One of the points Bock made was that many initially-confusing "contradictions" lose their force when they're more carefully examined. I thought it would be fitting to follow up Bock's post with a few specific examples of not-so-constradictory contradictions, as described by apologist Lee Strobel. Continue reading

Why Does God Allow Tragedy and Suffering?
It was the worst mass shooting in American history – 70 people shot by a gunman, 12 of them killed, while they were watching the midnight showing of a new movie just 21 miles from where we're sitting.

Justin Bieber partied with his boyz this week ... and there are photos that appear to show a large bottle of codeine at the shindig -- aka sizzurp.
The photos show Justin, Lil Za and Lil Twist (we're told both of whom have smoked pot with Bieber) at a table rolling up blunts. Also on the table -- two sets of double cups (a known style of consuming sizzurp which was made popular by Lil Wayne).
In one of the photos, Bieber is drinking out of a double cup. Sources connected to Justin adamantly deny he uses the drug. Based on multiple recent photos, however, it's pretty obvious he smokes pot. In the pics, we don't see anyone present actually consuming the drug.
Bieber is getting pressure from some of his people who think he's basically a good kid ... but hanging out with Za, Twist and some other dudes are taking him down a bad road.
We couldn't reach Za for comment. As for Twist, we reached out to his rep -- so far, no response.
and again i repeat WOW ITS A SHOCK SOMEONE FROM NUTSVILLE L.A IS ON DRUGS REALLY why don't you give it up and get on to real stars Hey Justin Honey Boo Boo isn;t a partier yet maybe go see her
Justin better be spending most of his time practicing playing guitar, improving his singing and learning new things about music. Drinking and hanging out with chicks is something you do AFTER you've had a good work week or a good month. Not every freakin day.
He ought to try to learn all the stuff that music producers, engineers and mixing guys know.
If Justin doesn't know how to write songs very well then he better learn how to do it. Musicians like Taylor Swift who have been writing their own songs for years and years are the ones that are going to remain big stars for decades.
Justin ought to consider taking some acting lessons too if he wants to try to do that. Lots of musicians have done that successfully like Mark Wahlburg, Justin Timberlake, Ice Cube, Ice T, etc.
Oh please his management is probably behind this sh*t after all how is teeny bop bieber gonna keep selling records when hes 25?
Doing cough syrup was what teeny boppers did in the 60's to get high.
Anyone for some RoboAC??????
Late to the game losers.........
That little boy is on a bad path!!!Keep hanging around those low-life rapper thugs.....nothing good comes out of that.
It's like watching a train wreck in super slow motion. Too bad so many kids look up this immature POS as a role model.
The world now knows the Biebs is a drug addict. That being said if he gets pulled over by the cops in his car they can and will test him for drugs because they know he does drugs. Stupid kid has no sense.
Hey Biebs....want to smoke some oregano to go with that cough syrup? Lol you are such a freak
Where are this kid's parents? I realize he's 18 years old, but come on. Clearly we're looking at a male Britney Spears repeat with some overtones of Amy Winehouse. Come on adults with some common sense and life experience… get involved with this train wreck.

This Daiwa Lex2500SH is one of the smoothest spinning reels I've ever owned. the cast is so effortless, it really gets the lure out there. The retrieve is great.
October 20, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by smallmouthdude87 very smooth!
i bought this reel about two weeks ago and its already handled many many smallmouth including a few in the 3+ lb range. i have it paired with a 7 foot ML avid rod and #8 sufix elite and its an amazing combination. the body is felt sealed to help with water resistance and yes mine did accidently take a dunk and yes it did keep much of the water and debris out.

Rated 3 out of 5 by tae111 Nice out of the Box
I got this reel and it felt great right out of the box. I matched it with a St.Croix Mojo Bass med heavy rod. First time out I couldn't believe how smooth it was. The second time out I was using soft plastics and all the sudden it started to feel like it was binding. No noise but with every crank of the handle it would feel real tight in some spots. The reel was never dropped in the water or beat up in any way. I took the reel home and lubed it up with Quantum reel grease and Quantum oil. Seems OK now but we will see. I didn't expect this for a $120. reel! If it fixes the problem I will love the reel. If not.......

Rated 5 out of 5 by Brizzle Awesome reel!!Great feel and very fluid!
I just bought the Lexa 2500SH during the Basspro spring fishing classic. I couldn't wait to fish it so I took it to the river matched with a Temple fork outfitters 6'6" ML rod. This is a great reel, super smooth and bail clicks over nice without having to flip the bail with your hand. I would recommend this reel to anyone looking for a super smooth, high quailty and tough reel. Just to have something to compare it to my brother got the Quantum Smoke matched with a Mojo Bass St. Croix. The Smoke doesn't weight as much as the Lexa but the Lexa is a lot smoother. Smooth as butter!! I'll take smooth over a bit lite anyday.

BATMAN #15 to Land in Stores 12/12
Yesterday, "Death of the Family" continued as the eagerly-anticipated BATMAN #14 hit shelves.
From the critically revered and New York Times bestselling creative team of writer Scott Snyder and artist Greg Capullo, the issue made some major revelations about Gotham City's Clown Prince of Crime and his ruthless plans to annihilate The Dark Knight's allies. And with a jaw-dropping cliffhanger for an ending, BATMAN #14 already had us clamoring for more. So what's coming next?
"We've got some really cool, bombastic stuff here. Some explosive stuff," Capullo teased to NEWSARAMA about the upcoming BATMAN #15. "And one of the things that The Joker is good at is getting inside people's heads, right? And so, if he can get in their heads and start to divide and conquer, how much easier is it for him to execute his plan? Which is to destroy the Bat-family. So we're going to start to see the seeds of destruction come to fruit here in this issue. And as we saw, The Joker has possession of Alfred. There's a very disturbing scene in this issue, carrying that ball forward down the field."
Below, take a first look at some interior art from BATMAN #15. For more sneak peeks inside the book, head on over to MTV GEEK, IGN, COMIC BOOK RESOURCES, NEWSARAMA and COMIC VINE, where you'll also get to read more from Capullo about The Joker and what's still to come in "Death of the Family"!
BATMAN #15 lands in stores on December 12.

Lakefront log home, nestled in the woods. Charming cabin built in 1924 but modernized to make it an all season retreat. Peace and quiet abound in this pristine environment, but it is just a few short minutes to the Mount Snow resort area. Skiing, snowboarding, cross country skiing, sleigh rides, snowmobile tours, snow shoeing and ice fishing are all available within minutes or right out the back door. Lake Raponda is four miles from downtown Wilmington, a quaint New England village with a large variety of restaurants, shops, art galleries, and lively nightlife including a variety of dining options. Or dine in and just watch the fire in the stone fireplace. This home is suitable for couples, families, family reunions and weekenders. Get away in time and space.
Keywords: Log Cabin, vacation home, lakefront home, lakefront cabin, home, ski home, cabin, log house, log home
This is a family home that we have enjoyed since 1968. We have loved spending winters skiing here and summers swimming in the lake. It is often used for family reunions with members coming from as far away as California.
We have just begun sharing the wonderful peace of our home with renters. I am a retired school teacher who lives nearby and manages the property for my family.
The proximity to the metropolitan areas in the northeast make for easy access to this property.
The local community of Wilmington, Vermont is friendly and has a wide variety of activities and amenities. Lake Raponda is a charming and peaceful spot. A place to enjoy nature, a truly Vermont experience. Ducks, Otters, Beavers, Kingfishers, Loons and Great Blue Herons are among the wildlife viewed from the lakeside porch. There is a variety of outdoor activities right outside the door, including swimming, hiking and ice skating in winter.
The living room of the cabin offers an antique Estey organ and an upright piano that you can enjoy playing and singing along to. Our cabin on the lake, is the place we come to in order to unplug from all the stresses of life. We have had family reunions here for 40 years, and a few weddings too!
Our favorite pastime is just sitting on the porch and watching all the activity on the lake after a nice brisk hike along the nearby trails.
In the evening we enjoy being together as a family playing a variety of board games and puzzles, which are available at the cabin.

DALLAS — Long before SMU was pulling off upset victories at home before sellout crowds, Moody Madness had a much different meaning.
These days, the term finally applies to the home-team Mustangs.
"Everywhere I've been, I've been lucky enough to be places where the crowd actually has mattered and made us play better than we know how," SMU coach Larry Brown said. "I know it affects teams, especially young kids coming in here, with an environment like this."
Three decades after an unusual Dallas Mavericks' playoff game on the SMU campus spawned Moody Madness, the Mustangs are undefeated at home this season. SMU has won all seven games since moving back into the renovated Moody Coliseum last month, three of those convincingly over Top 25 teams after going 10 years without a victory anywhere against a ranked team.
"We're all happy with the way the team has performed and the way the students and the fans have created an unbelievable atmosphere in Moody, the way the building turned out," athletic director Rick Hart said.
The Mustangs (20-6, 9-4 American Athletic Conference), trying to get to their first NCAA tournament since 1993, are back home Wednesday night to play Houston (12-13, 4-8).
SMU beat then-No. 7 Cincinnati 76-55 in its last home game Feb. 8, and students rushed to court to celebrate the upset that ended the Bearcats' 15-game winning streak. That, along with earlier home wins against UConn (74-65) and Memphis (87-72), propelled the Mustangs to their first Top 25 ranking since 1985.
There have been sellout crowds for four games already and every ticket for the remaining three have already been sold.
The seven sellouts will be a single-season school record.
"It's awesome to see where they've been and to see the interest level and the new arena kind of bringing college basketball excitement back to the Metroplex," Kansas coach Bill Self said. "I think it's really cool."
For locals, Moody Madness has long referred to that 1984 NBA playoff game, when the Mavericks had to play the deciding Game 5 of their first-round series at SMU.
Moody was about half the size of Reunion Arena, but their usual home then was unavailable because of a previously scheduled World Championship Tennis tournament. The Mavs beat Seattle 105-104 in overtime to clinch their first playoff series victory.
Hart was hired at SMU in July 2012, weeks after Brown took over a team that finished the previous season losing 11 of its last 14 games.
Asked if he expected the Mustangs to excel on the court so quickly, Hart said he's not so sure he would have affirmatively answered that way when he first got to SMU. But he's not that surprised now.
"I've been around the program. I've known what we're doing and how we're doing it," Hart said. "I believe we have the best coaching staff in the country. And Larry's done a great job surrounding himself with talented people who complement his strengths."
The Mustangs played two road games last week after debuting at No. 23 in the AP poll. They won at Rutgers in a game pushed back a day by a winter storm, but then lost 71-64 at Temple, a team that had lost 10 of its previous 11 AAC games.
Three of SMU's last five regular-season games are at home, including another of the AAC's ranked teams. After Houston, the Mustangs still have home games against UCF and No. 11 Louisville.
"The best part of this to me is it brings SMU together," Brown said of the sold-out home crowds. "The biggest thing is that they appreciate what the players are doing and that's why (fans) are there, and that's why they're enthusiastic, and we want this to be a great home court environment."

Don't be intimidated by the spices and exotic ingredients. If you can't find fresh kaffir lime leaves in the produce section, try templeofthai.com. Freeze any extra leaves; they should last up to a year.
Servings: Serves 8
To make curry paste: Place all ingredients in a food processor. Add 4 to 5 tablespoons water; blend well until forms a smooth paste. Makes about 10 tablespoons.
To make scallops: With minimal disturbance, carefully open both cans of coconut milk. From each can, remove 4 tablespoons of thick cream that has accumulated on top; set aside. Blend remaining contents well; set aside. Pour 2 tablespoons oil into a large, nonstick frying pan or sauté pan set over medium heat. When oil is hot, add coconut cream and green curry paste. Stir-fry until oil separates and paste is lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add fish sauce, tamarind paste (or lemon juice), sugar, reserved coconut milk, and 2 tablespoons water. Stir and bring to a gentle simmer. Taste for balance of flavors, adding more fish sauce, sugar, or tamarind paste (or lemon juice), if needed. Remove from heat. Pour 2 tablespoons oil into a separate, large, nonstick pan set over medium-high heat. When oil is very hot, add half the scallops in a single layer. Brown lightly on one side, then carefully turn over and brown opposite side. Remove cooked scallops to a bowl and brown remaining raw scallops the same way, using remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Heat sauce, put in scallops, and stir. Cook gently until scallops are just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Before serving, tear kaffir lime leaves or lemon rind (or remove vein from leaves and cut into fine strips) and scatter with whole basil leaves over scallops.

LADIES! Sex and the City 2 came out on DVD and Blu Ray today. Of course, you already knew that. Because of your VAGINA. Obviously you already have your copy, which you pre-ordered on opening night after getting home from the theater at two in the morning (opening night meaning the Thursday midnight screening. Is there anything here that is unclear?) and today is the big day! The eVites went out months ago for all your best GAL PALS to come over and watch. ("The best part is that we can finally PAUSE the movie when we need to pee, which women have to do all the time!" Etc.) But just in case you have forgotten any last minute provisions, here are the MUST HAVES that you will DEFINITELY need:
• A bunch of shoes, or something
• Deep-seated self-loathing
• This weird form of inverted homophobia where you refer to gay people as "my gays" not realizing that that's kind of gross and weirdly offensive
• Industrial grade insecurity
• The irrational and desperate belief that a man will somehow "fix" things, which you can't shake even though you might, as a modern woman, know it is a lie
• A blind eye towards racist jokes about Muslims
OK! You're all set, girls. Time to cut loose. ACK! ACK!

Sex And The City 2? That's what that is?! I saw the picture on the cover and just assumed it was Old Dogs.
I *really* can't stand the Sex and the City phenomenon. It's unhealthy, exploitative, and dim-witted. So I was kind of disappointed to find the first comment on this post a little sexist.
Hidden due to low comment rating. Click here to see
I never said I don't care. I care very much about you RELAXing.
But okay, you really insist on calling me sexist? Let's break this down. I didn't mention gender in any way. I referred to the fact that they are old. Ageist, to be sure, but I didn't bring any mention of gender into this, not even a reference to the fact that they are women. That was all your doing.
Would your argument apply to men as well, or only to women? In fact, there WAS a movie called Old Dogs, which was about men who are roughly the same age as the women in Sex And The City. Did you consider that to be sexist? Calling them old? Or do you think this reasoning of yours only applies to women? Because that is saying that a standard that applies to one gender does not apply to the other, and that's pretty much the definition of sexism.
Or does it apply to both genders, then? Is it sexist to call someone old, no matter what their gender is? At what point does reference to someone's age begin to have anything to do with their sex? Is the movie Grumpy Old Men sexist against men? Or are you just a little off target with this whole thing?
There was a Robot Chicken thing about that
Actually, if you're a college-age girl you'll need a few extra things:
- Dried flowers hanging upside down on a wall for some reason
- A poster that says "Dance like no ones watching"
- Plan B -
Ladies, if you haven't seen Target Women with Sarah Haskins, I highly suggest you become addicted like I did:

Also, given the general fashion sense and aesthetic of her character in these movies, it could be fair to say that when I typed "horse" I simply misspelled "whore".
Jeez, dad, they're not called my "gays" their my "accessories".
I seriously don't know how I would laugh every day if it wasn't for Videogum. What would I do? Look at webcomics? Nice try, but it's no longer March 2008, weirdo.
my favorite "web comic" (graphic novel? LOL!) of the moment right now is the Vivian Vagicorn on blogspot. rad web comic
Deep-seated self-loathing? Here I thought it was 'deep-seeded'. You learn something new every day. Thanks Videogum!
It's ok, that's not as bad as confusing "Throwing caution to the wind" with "throwing kosh into the wind."
BOOM. #figuresofspeechgum
It bothers me that the name order at the top of dvd doesn't match match the order of the animated corpses*.

Imomen art right? I remember reading the first 2 issues and liked them well enough. Can't remember much detail though.
I searched and didn't find anything on this. I'm assuming someone here has read it.
I just picked up the new printing from IDW and was wondering what any of you thought?
Started strong. Ended abruptly. Read like it was originally designed to be an ongoing and was switched to a miniseries.

I thought it was a whole mess of fun and the art is really great. Not a perfect book but well worth checking out. Have you finished it yet?
Yes. That be it.Originally Posted by Jason California

Alanis Morissette has Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) from the early part of her career.
The 'Ironic' singer shot to fame when she was 20 with her hit album 'Jagged Little Pill' - which was released in 1995 and has sold over 33 million copies worldwide - but she found the fame which came with it particularly overwhelming and she still sometimes struggles to cope.
She said: ''I still have PTSD from the 'Jagged Little Pill' era. It was a profound violation. It felt like every millisecond I was attempting to set a boundary and say no and people were breaking into my hotel rooms and going through my suitcase and pulling my hair and jumping on my car.
''There was a period of time during the 'Jagged Little Pill' era where I don't think I laughed for about two years. It was a survival mode, you know. It was an intense, constant, chronic over-stimulation and invasion of energetic and physical literal space.''
Alanis, 38, was signed to Madonna's Maverick record label until 2010, and she insists they had a good relationship in the early part of her career, but she didn't feel like they were working well together in later years.
In an interview with The Guardian newspaper, Alanis explained: ''We met a couple of times and she was actually quite lovely with me - early on. It was an interesting dynamic. It was kind of like back to the antiquated system of 80 per cent record company and 20 per cent artist. There was an inherent win/lose quality to that dynamic, so less a boss and more a pseudo-partnership, but it wasn't really a partnership because that's win/win or no deal, right?''

I recently discovered the fantastic work PNC has done on its site to educate its users about secure online banking and use of financial services. This area of the site includes not just the standard basic advice but goes into truly deep content such as real examples of phishing e-mails, a place for customers to report fraud, and a detailed description of what green address bars...
The 768-bit RSA algorithm has been factored. The team's paper states in part,
If we are optimistic, it may be possible to factor a 1024-bit RSA modulus within the next decade by means of an academic effort on the same limited scale as the effort presented here. From a practical security point of view this is not a big deal, given that standards recommend phasing out such moduli by the end of the year 2010.
In an unusual footnote (literally), the cryptographers included dialog from Quentin Tarantino film Inglourious Basterds among their reference sources.

Here's a well considered, thought provoking blog by a site operator about SSL errors and the pros and cons of Extended Validation SSL Certificates. Among other things the writer has looked at the top 100 online retailers according to Internet Retailer and given us a chart detailing how these sites use SSL.
An interesting paper recently came out in which the researchers measured the rate of removal of SSL Certificates with bad Debian keys from the Web. You may recall that in 2008 a security researcher discovered that Debian's random number generator was not in the slightest bit random and that as a result any key pair generated on the flawed operating system was not trustworthy.
VeriSign responded by modifying our systems to disallow any such comprimised CSR, searching our customer base for such keys, and informing all affected online businesses of the bad certificate so that they could replace it. We eliminated our replacement fee for affected certificates and proactively worked with...
Every year starting around Thanksgiving we see a lot of stories running about holiday shopping online. This article just appeared in Inc., and it discusses how online businesses can expect to be financially rewarded by employing premium security and making it highly visible to site visitors.

A couple of days ago we announced that Microsoft Azure will be using SSL and code signing certificates from VeriSign.
Mobile devices continue to grow in importance as a platform for doing real business online. You may recall that the iPhone broke the EV glass as the first popular mobile device to specifically call out EV SSL Certificates in the interface. This recent article explains how German bank Postbank is using EV on its iPhone specific site. A Postbank official says,
With the launch of the VeriSign EV SSL Certificates for iBanking on the iPhone, we're taking a huge step forward in our efforts to build trust and reassurance for this fast-growing segment of our customer base.
A researcher has published an exploit that uses the SSL renegotiation attack to compromise Twitter logins. That appears to run counter to earlier assessments that this exploit wasn't aimed at the accounts of individuals accessing sites. So what's going on here, you ask?
This attack does indeed follow the parameters of the attack as previously described. It attaches exploit code to the encrypted stream and indeed cannot decrypt the data going to and from the site. What the inserted exploit code does is take advantage of a vulnerability in Twitter's API that allows it to command Twitter to publish the credentials of the currently active account. And of course the currently active account by definition is the same as the one operated by...
Two articles recently came to my attention because I'm quoted in them.

To begin take several craft sticks and tape them together end to end to create a longer craft stick. This will be the holder for your mask.
Next click on Printables and print out the pattern or your own imagination, cut out a large cow face and two cow ears.
Cut the cow face and the cow ears out of your white construction paper.Next attach the cow ears on either side of the cow face with tape or glue. Use the picture as a guide.
Next tape or glue the craft stick mask holder to the cow up the backside center of the mask. Be sure leave enough of the craft stick holder stick out at the bottom to hold onto.
Now cut out two large eyes from the mask using your scissors. You will be able to peer through the mask through the eye holes.
Next cut out large black spots and squiggly shapes from the black construction paper.
Decorate your cow face further with crayons and wear it with style!Enjoy Crafting!
