CommonSpot gives you options for handling stale cache – page content that expires because of related content updates (for example, changes affecting page indexes) or cached dynamic content that exceeds a defined limit. Use this feature to find a balance between the performance benefits of temporarily serving expired content and the content freshness requirements of your site(s).
Enabling cache for dynamic content improves performance by eliminating the need for CommonSpot to re-render certain types of dynamic content for every page request.
With Stale Cache Handling set to Never, CommonSpot always delivers the most current content, even if this means performing time-consuming rendering while site visitors wait. Enabling expired cache improves performance, although site visitors may not immediately see the latest updates.
Authors and administrators can define how outdated is "too outdated" for the current page, template, or site. Use site-level settings to set default usage; optionally override defaults at the template or page level. Page level overrides template level, and template level overrides site level.
For example, caching random content for 5 minutes gives most requests the performance benefit of locally stored content, without losing dynamic appearance. This short limit ensures that all updates are delivered quickly, but may negate performance benefits for infrequently viewed pages. A longer limit (1 day, for example) can eliminate most "while you wait" page rendering (especially if a scheduled process rebuilds cache during low-traffic periods), but some content updates won't be immediately available.
With stale cache enabled, CommonSpot inserts a background process into the ColdFusion administrator to detect and regenerate recently requested expired content on target servers, updating oldest stale cache first.
Sites can gain significant performance advantages by adjusting these settings, particularly for content that changes frequently.
To minimize the delivery of outdated content, configure the Rebuild Stale Cache job to automatically rebuild stale cache on a scheduled basis. Schedule this task to run frequently (for example, every two to five minutes) to maximize content freshness and minimize processing time.
Note: Unless you schedule this job, CommonSpot does not automatically rebuild stale cache. Schedule the Rebuild Stale Cache job through Server Administration - Utilities - Scheduled Jobs.
Handling updates this way both optimizes page performance and more efficiently processes content changes.
Sites running Static Content Generation have additional options for handling stale cache, as described under Cache/Static Settings for Static Sites.
At the site level, set default stale cache handling by expanding Properties in the Site Administration left panel and choosing Cache Properties.
You can customize stale cache handling at the page or template level, by choosing Cache/Static Settings from the Properties menu in author mode.
Sites with the Cache Server installed have additional options: Shared Database customers can optionally purchase and install a CommonSpot Cache Server, a separately licensed server dedicated to continuously rebuilding cache for faster content delivery. This dedicated server performs the following two functions:
a. When stale cache is enabled, automatically detects and rebuilds cache for any stale content served
b. Continuously rebuilds cache for all pages, ensuring that the cache is always as up-to-date as possible.
Any updates to the cache become automatically available to all servers in a cluster, ensuring the most up-to-date content, and improving overall site performance.

Kwartzlab is moving!!
Ben and I just signed a lease for Kwartzlab's new home for at least the next couple of years.
We've discussing the move for weeks and the board just approved the lease agreement today. We'll be moving over the next month and a bit, with a grand opening sometime in February 2013.
The new building, 33 Kent Ave. in Kitchener, has up until recently been the home of the Pandora Press publishing company and book shop. It's got a beautiful store front, a shop in the back with a garage door, concrete floors, ventilation and three phase power and it's got a room upstairs which will make a fantastic clubhouse and lounge. It's a bit smaller than we're used to, but we're working on ways to get all our stuff in there, along with equipment we're planning on purchasing in the near future.
Pandora is right on the corner of Charles and Kent, steps away from the Iron Horse Trail and a couple blocks from the Ottawa Street iXpress stop. Thousands of people ride and drive by every day, and this is an amazing opportunity for Kwartzlab to become more visible and accessible to the community.
I can't think of a better home for Kwartzlab: Phase 2.
We wouldn't have found this place without the help and support of friends we've made in the community. The owner and landlord, Christian, is on the board of MT Space, and we were put in touch through through our mutual friend Gabrielle at Treehaus. We've also had fantastic support from the City of Kitchener scouting out potential new locations. Many thanks!
Update: I've uploaded some photos from our tour of the place last month.
Stay tuned for more exciting announcements in the coming days!

Publication Title: | Recessions Accelerate Trend of Wives as Breadwinners |
Region: | National |
Publication Type: | Issue Brief |
Publication Number: | 56 |
Publication Date: | December 4, 2012 |
Publication PDF: | Download PDF |
Abstract: | This brief investigates the increased role employed wives played in family economic stability prior to, during, and in the two years after the Great Recession, and makes comparisons to the 1990-1991 and 2001 recessions. Author Kristin Smith reports that employed wives' contribution to total family earnings jumped to 47 percent in 2009 from 45 percent in 2008—the largest single-year increase during the past twenty-three years—and has held steady at 47 percent in 2010 and 2011. Recessions substantially accelerate the trend of increased reliance on wives' earnings. In all three recessions since 1988, annual increases in wives' share of total family earnings rose substantially. Employed wives' share of total family earnings is higher and more responsive to economic downturns when the husband has a high school degree or less compared with a college degree. The brief uses data from the U.S. Census Bureau's Current Population Survey (CPS) from 1989 to 2012. |

Infertility: Setting Limits on TreatmentTopic OverviewInfertility treatment has great potential for squandering some of your most precious resources—money, time, and peace of mind. Before you start infertility treatment, decide how much money, time, and emotional energy you can afford to spend on infertility treatment. Take control of a process that can so easily take control of you. Financial limitsThink about:
Time limitsBefore you start infertility treatment, plan how long you each envision trying to conceive with medical help. Talk to your doctor ahead of time about what is a reasonable period of time to try treatment for your specific condition. Whether you decide "no more than 4 months and then we stop treatment and start an adoption process" or "we'll try as long as it takes," set definite time points when you and your partner will evaluate your prognosis and progress. Anticipate that you might want to take periodic breaks from treatment, which can become all-consuming and difficult. Ideally your doctor will help you stop and assess your plan and options at each step of the way. If you feel that you are being pushed to make decisions without enough information or support from your doctor, think about finding another doctor. Related InformationCredits

Down syndrome groups seek probe of Md. death
Tuesday - 4/23/2013, 4:38pm  ET
Associated Press
HAGERSTOWN, Md. (AP) -- Advocates for people with Down syndrome are pressing for an independent investigation into the recent death in custody of a New Market man.
National Down Syndrome Congress Executive Director David Tolleson said in a conference call Tuesday that 26-year-old Robert Ethan Saylor died because he was improperly restrained -- not because he had Down syndrome.
A Frederick County grand jury declined to indict three sheriff's deputies in Saylor's' death last month.
The deputies were moonlighting as mall security officers when they were asked to remove Saylor from a Frederick movie theater Jan. 12. He had re-entered the auditorium without paying for a second viewing.
Saylor died from asphyxia after a struggle that ended with him in handcuffs, face-down on the floor. The medical examiner ruled the death a homicide.

Not what I ordered..Pros: It is a nice drive but, DC picked/shipped the wrong product. This is actually a sata3 6.0gb 32mb cache drive. Cons: Not what I ordered. DC has problem with inventory/order picking data... Other Thoughts: the last 2 drive orders were the wrong product. Nice drive but, I ordered sata2 3.0gb drive.. I use this one as a backup and replaced it with an another supplier order. Did you find this review helpful? |
Be Aware: Newegg Sends replacement part WD3200AAKXPros: Nothing wrong with this HDD... Cons: .. other than newegg sends out a WD3200AAKX in place of it. This is the same drive essencially except it is SATA 6.0Gb/s instead of 3.0Gb/s. You can use a jumper to set it to 3.0Gb/s, but if you have an older machine that needs 1.5Gb/s, this can be an issue. Did you find this review helpful? |
works for mePros: it seems often for a lot of people WD is a hit or miss brand. I've never had a bad experience and this was no exception. works great! no trouble no drama Cons: none Did you find this review helpful? |
Six Months Still Going StrongPros: Literally silent when running. Was on a budget and didn't want to spend and arm and a leg for an excessively pricey SSD. A lot of other reviews have said this particular model has been DoA or die very fast, but it's been a half a year and mine is showing absolutely no signs of age or slowing down. Not one error has occurred with it either. It started up right out of the box (which was an OEM drive covered in bubble wrap) Cons: Small HD space gets used up very fast when installing video games. Slower to start up than an SSD. But otherwise not the HDD's fault, you get what you paid for exactly. Other Thoughts: Will definitely purchase from WD again in the future. Wish I had been able to afford a higher priced HDD with more memory. This one's memory has almost been completely eaten up by video game installs. Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: Its a hard disk drive, that is stable with a 16MB cache. Cons: None, I do wish I bought a raptor. Other Thoughts: Only posts a 5.9 on WEI! 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
TOTALLY DissatisfiedPros: Quiet & Fast. Cons: I ordered two new drives, both arrived and operated with no errors. Within a few days, one drive had increasingly bad sectors, more and more each day. I managed to backup all my data and replace the drive with the second one. Before I could get an RMA back, the second drive started to fail in exactly the same manner! I limped along and finally got the RMA back and it was flawless, Within a few days, it started the SAME thing! I am returning both drives to Western Digital as I type this! 3 out of 3 failures!! This model should be discontinued! Other Thoughts: Don't buy this one!! Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Excellent Drive for my NeedsPros: Easy to install Cons: None so far Other Thoughts: I've recently been trying to resurrect an old XP system I had. It was an old P4 3.4 GHz Northwood machine (mobo only had AGP). I wanted a new hard drive and, so far, this one has fit the bill in terms of my needs. Definitely faster and quieter than the 8-year old 120 GB Seagate it replaced. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Units DOAPros: None on this unit. Unfortunately mine arrived DOA. Cons: As I said, arrived DOA. Other Thoughts: I seem to be the first reviewer of this drive with a DOA unit. Hopefully it's just a fluke. Sending mine back for a refund and purchasing another HD from a local store. Manufacturer Response: 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Quiet with one ProblemPros: I've worked with Western Digital HDDs before and never ran into much of a problem. The one I ordered worked fine and after getting the rest of the machine in line with it worked wonders. The drive was quiet, quick, and had enough storage for my OS, Games, and what not. All was wonderful till the event log. Cons: It was probably my fault but there are bad segments on the hard disk. I was looking at Event Viewer and there those errors were. Running chkdsk shows swaths of segments being unreadable. Even with these it ran pretty well until some other error ran the machine into the ground. It may just be a fluke, oh well. Other Thoughts: I would recommend purchasing this hard disk as my incident is likely a fluke. If it gets too bad I will send it back knowing that the next one I get will likely work. So, go ahead and buy! 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great Hard Drive!Pros: Western Digital is always the best choice when it comes to hard drives. They have been supplying the world with top of the line drives for a good price. I've never had a WDC fail me, ever. Cons: None. Other Thoughts: Toshiba and Seagate are Junk. You should ONLY buy WDC. Solid drive. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

A Great Budget CasePros: The case has lasted a long time and it will probably last another year or so. I like the back panel idea. Cons: The cable management holes are too close to the board and there is not enough space behind them for all of my cables. Other Thoughts: Overall, it's a great board. Did you find this review helpful? |
Great case, great pricePros: Looks great, very sturdy, front audio, both sides open, cable management, nice little fan comes with it Cons: plastic drive bay slots seem a little flimsy, thumbscrews hurt my fingers, PSU is top mounted rather than bottom Other Thoughts: If you're building a budget rig, this case is for you Did you find this review helpful? |
Decent budget casePros: Cheap case, seems to be decently put together. Everything was functioning properly for the most part. Easy to maneuver around in. Cons: Only came with 3 lifter screws, luckily my other case sent an excess so I just used those instead. Annoying but no big deal. Case in the back was a little dented in by the slide out panel but it still slides in and out without an issue so not enough of a problem to RMA it. When I popped off the front panel to put the DVD drive in, the wiring for the power button fell out and the LED light did as well but I put it back in and it seems to still be working without issue. Other Thoughts: Hard drive rack seems a little shaky, metal seems a little too malleable. I am a little worried the case will not support the printer on top of it when it moves to server duty. The PSU is at the bottom and I am not thrilled with out it is set up to vent down which goes right into the floor since it doesn't have much space off the ground but soon it will be sideways so I am not super concerned. Did you find this review helpful? |
Great CasePros: Great Case well laid out, roomy and drive management is great. I was a little concerned about cables to hard drives after reading some of the reviews here but there was plenty of room for the regular sata power and interface cables. I highly recommend this case for any build. Cons: Fans included do not have the plugs required to add them as system fans. This really the only Con I could find and it isn't major at all, Fans running off the power supply keep the system very cool. Other Thoughts: I highly reccomend this for anyone looking for an affordable case with some great bells and whistles. Did you find this review helpful? |
cheap casePros: Good price after rebate if you can get it. Support ATX MB. support cable management on back(but no enough room) Cons: newegg description said it came with 1 front USB 3 port when I purchased it. It arrived with 2 front USB 2 ports and newegg updated description too. The HDD plastic mounting bracket is not stable. Mounting hole is hard to match ASUS MB I used. Also no enough matching screws to mount the MB. Other Thoughts: rebate is big hassle. Have submitted 3 RAIDMAX rebates since last Nov. all show approved online but never got checks. Sent many query emails to raidmax but heard nothing back. Did you find this review helpful? |
Oh my goodness, best case ever!!Pros: I bought this because it was inexpensive, has 2-120mm fans and requires no tools. I am also prefer the PS on the bottom. I am impressed with this case. The fans are the quietest fans I have not heard in a while. Air flow is quite nice. I used a Micro ATX MB so I have plenty of room; would have plenty of room if I had used any size board. I love the hard drive racks that are user friendly and lightweight. The case looks nice and that is a plus. The front grills all have filter material. There are a bunch of little things that show that Raidmax was paying attention to details. Cons: This is not really a con but a note: Things fit tight because there is no hardware to hold drives in place. You do not have to be a gorrilla to put this together. However, if you assemble your computer by throwing parts at it from accross the room, you will break it. I always advise reading the instructions too. Other Thoughts: I am going to buy another just because I like it. Did you find this review helpful? |
Poor H.D.D. AssemblyPros: Nice case small no problem "BUT" Cons: Poor H.D.D. Assembley You halfto remove the back cover to install hard drives and connect them. plastic mounting bracket will not lock in with longer drives. my drive is W.D. 1TB. Next problem does not have HD Audio plug just AC'97 plug. for front audio. Other Thoughts: Ok for Mother boards ATX/ATX mini without F.D.D. and with AC'97 Audio. and using shorter drives. I would have given it 5 stars if it was't for thoes two things. Did you find this review helpful? |
Cable LengthPros: Looks nice, better quality. Cons: We custom build a lot of pc's since we are an IT solution provider and have experience with many cases. This WOULD have been a great case except for the PSU cables were so short that the P4 connector would not even reach the connection point on the motherboard. EVERY P4 connection is in the same place on motherboards (for the most part) so why they would build a case with a PSU that wouldn't even reach half way across the board is beyond me. We had to order extension cables for another $6 to make it work. Plus it doesn't have any floppy drive bays for standard card readers. Won't be buying this one again. 1 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Verify MB firstPros: Nice design...good looking case...Good air flow....that's is why I gave it 2 stars. Cons: Front USB ports and sound port gave error messages when plugged into motherboard (bad circuit board). Power supply cables not long enough to reach my Gigabyte board (GA-880GM-USBL). Other Thoughts: Buy different power supply and hope the USB front ports are good. 0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
best case I used in a long time!Pros: power supply location, easy cable management, easy drive storage management- lots of room and good craftsmanship. Cons: wish it came in orange or red also Other Thoughts: did not miss the lack of an external 3.5 " slot - have bought and used cases from most of the bigger names and spent up to 100 for them- yet this was the easiest build I have had Did you find this review helpful? |

Town teams up with URI to better understand sea level rise
NORTH KINGSTOWN—At Monday evening's town council meeting, Teresa Crean of the University of Rhode Island's Coastal Resources Center (CRC) presented the town with an initiative that research group has been working on in conjunction with the town's planning department. Last year, the CRC received a $100,000 grant to develop a program which examined sea level rise and associated climate change effects in North Kingstown.
"We have been working with CRMC, DOT and many others in looking at the impacts of sea level rise and climate change," said Director of Planning Jon Reiner. "A couple of years ago, I was asked to go down to Washington by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse to speak on this matter. Municipalities need to address this issue now, and the big push is for us to put together the model plan for [sea level rise] within our new comprehensive plan, which we will be rewriting within the next few months."
Crean gave the council an overview of the project's current and future phases of research. In 2011, CRC performed data collection of the town's coastline and created elevation maps which display historical storm water marks, such as for the Hurricane of 1938, as well as predicting future sea levels. Such efforts have been used to identify areas of possible vulnerability as sea levels rise.
Crean also praised the collaboration with town staff on this new pilot program.
"North Kingstown was chosen because it has a good diversity of land uses along its coastline, as well as direct impacts of tidal inundation in the town center," said Crean. "Climate change is really on [North Kingstown's] doorstep, and your staff, Jon and his crew, is really savvy. They were able to get this work done on time with limited planning resources."
According to a report released last fall by the CRC and URI's Graduate School of Oceanography, sea level rises are projected to increase by three to five feet by 2100, and possibly a one foot rise by 2050. Since 1930, sea level along Rhode Island's coastline has increased by an average of an inch a decade.
Phase two, which is ongoing, aims to help North Kingstown in developing its natural hazards and climate change element in the upcoming comprehensive plan update. $15,000 of the total $100,000 Statewide Planning Challenge Grant will be dedicated to the town for phase two.
The initiative will also produce a list of prioritized transportation and land use projects which would benefit from the climate change adaption program and can be incorporated into the state's Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), as well as the town's capital improvements.
"The idea here is to begin understanding the current conditions and potential long term planning impacts of sea level rise and to proactively adapt to changing conditions," said Crean. "This is not fear-based, but we are looking at the best available science to assist the municipalities in Rhode Island."
CRC is currently holding public information sessions throughout North Kingstown over the next several months as the project continues. The next public meeting will be held at the North Kingstown Public Library on April 18, 6 to 8 p.m.
"The objectives of this [initiative] are to work with the town to look at all the impacted infrastructure and properties under these different scenarios," said Crean. "We are looking to bring certain resources to the town so that you are designing for future conditions based on the best available science we have."
"There has been great collaboration and everyone is really excited to see what happens in North Kingstown as we move this forward," she added.

Providing access to relevant and stylish clothing for youth experiencing homelessness is no small matter. In Medford, Oregon, Sharilyn and Christina Cano honor their daughter and sister Jessica's legacy of concern for youth who are homeless. In partnership with the Maslow Project, they have created Jessica's Closet to offer up-to-date clothing for young people in need and to carry on Jessica's mission of care and concern for young people.
Sharilyn Cano is the mother of six children and the co-founder of
Jessica's Closet
, an organization providing a careful selection of clothing for youth who face homelessness in Medford, Oregon. Jessica's Closet works in close collaboration with the
Maslow Project
to ensure that young people living in poverty, on the streets, or doubled up have access to clothing that they can feel good wearing.
The importance of relevant clothing is no small matter to Sharilyn and her daughter Christina, who is also very involved with Jessica's Closet. They want to help remove the barriers associated with the stigma of being homeless. "I have raised six kids and watched a lot of kids grow up. I listen to what matters to them. Sometimes what matters to them may seem superficial, but if you are in high school, wearing the wrong clothes can get you ostracized and labeled."
Through their partnership with the Maslow Project, Sharilyn and Christina are connected to a broad spectrum of youth with high needs. "These kids have enough obstacles already. We don't want them to look in the mirror and not feel good about themselves. Who wants to be out of style? There is already so much on their plate and this is just one simple way that we can help. Our clothes are youthful, stylish, and very lightly used or are brand new. I do the mending myself. We make sure that everything is washed and pressed," explains Christina.
Clothes are organized by gender and size. The long-term goal for Jessica's Closet is to create a retail store experience, so that young people can feel like they just went shopping at a boutique for free. Christina has found a three-way retail mirror that she is saving for the day that this dream becomes a reality.
Jessica's Closet is the living legacy of Sharilyn's daughter Jessica, who died in a car accident in January 2009 at the age 24. Jessica was a pre-school teacher at the Ashland YMCA. "Before I lost her, I hadn't realized the extent to which she was always helping people who were homeless or struggling," shares Sharilyn.
Christina explains that her sister Jessica did not like to see other people suffer. Jessica felt an inner obligation to do what she could to make things better. "When she died," explains Christina, "people came to us, called us, and sent us letters to tell us how Jessica changed their lives."
"Jessica saw herself as fortunate and she gave from the heart. She saw herself as someone who had a lot, who had something to spare," says Sharilyn. Stories of Jessica's willingness to share her own resources have filled the Cano household since her death. There are stories of young women who were invited to choose clothes from her closet, and of a boy who she took home to feed and let him shower. Jessica paid people's electric bills, took care of their children, and gave away her possessions. Jessica is also described by her mother as a regular teenager. "She was perfectly imperfect. She smoked, drank, and went dancing and sometimes she wouldn't come home until midnight. She was not a saint. She didn't walk on water," explains Sharilyn.
Sharilyn and Christina decided to start Jessica's Closet after her death, as a way to cope with their own feelings about her death and to give something back. "Jessica was a clothes horse. She has more clothes than anyone I have ever seen. So, we were sitting there with all these clothes and all of these feelings and wondering what we were going to do with everything," explains Christina.
When they started getting phone calls from people who knew Jessica as the girl who would give away her clothes, they decided that they wanted to do something with a purpose. Months before, Sharilyn had learned about the Maslow Project and wanted to work with the program. After a three-hour marathon meeting, they formed a partnership and agreed to distribute clothes for The Maslow Project.
On May 1st, 2009, Jessica's birthday, the Cano family held an event co-sponsored by Old Navy, and collected over 12,000 pieces of donated clothing. They brought along all the clothes from Jessica's closet. "It was a life-changing day," explains Christina. At the event, two young girls approached them. One of the girls asked if all of the clothes were from Jessica's closet. Christina was surprised that the young girl knew about Jessica's closet, but was even more surprised to learn that the young girl was wearing a shirt that had once belonged to Jessica. Christina later learned that the young girl lives in a hotel with her mother.
Today, Jessica's closet has taken on a life of its own. Old Navy employees donate their own clothing to Jessica's closet on a regular basis, church groups have organized fundraisers for Jessica's closet, and everybody seems to want to help.
"It is really important to me to get beyond the 'something is better than nothing' mentality about donated clothing. Children don't choose homelessness. What we need to keep in mind is that kids deserve more. If we keep this idea in our hearts—that kids deserve more—we can do no wrong," offers Christina.

Born in Cairo in 1929, Yasser Arafat was named chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization 40 years later. From this post, he was at the forefront of years of violence, border disputes, and the Palestinian liberation movement, all centering on neighboring Israel. Arafat signed a self-governing pact with Israel in 1991, at the Madrid Conference, and together with Israeli leaders made several attempts at lasting peace soon after,
notably through the Oslo Accords (1993) and the Camp David Summit of 2000. Stemming from the Oslo Accords, Arafat and Israel's Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres shared the Nobel Peace Prize, but the terms were never implemented. Arafat ceded his PLO chairman post in 2003, and died in Paris in 2004. In November 2013, Swiss researchers released a report containing evidence suggesting that his death was the result of poisoning.
Early Years
Born in Cairo, Egypt, in 1929, Yasser Arafat was sent to live with his mother's brother in Jerusalem when his mother died in 1933. After spending four years in Jerusalem, Arafat returned to Cairo to be with his father, with whom Arafat never had close ties (Arafat did not attend his father's 1952 funeral).
In Cairo, while still a teenager, Arafat began smuggling weapons to Palestine to be used against the Jews and British, the latter of which had an administrative role in the Palestinian lands. Playing a part that he would inhabit his entire life, Arafat left the University of Faud I (later Cairo University) to fight against the Jews during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, which resulted in the establishment of the state of Israel when the Jews prevailed.
In 1958, Arafat and some associates founded Al-Fatah, an underground network that advocated armed resistance against Israel. By the mid-1960s, the group had congealed enough that Arafat left Kuwait, becoming a full-time revolutionary and staging raids into Israel.
The year1964 was seminal for Arafat, marking the founding of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), which brought together a number of groups working toward a free Palestinian state. Three years later, the Six-Day War erupted, with Israel once again pitted against the Arab states. Once again, Israel prevailed, and in the aftermath Arafat's Fatah gained control of the PLO when he became the chairman of the PLO executive committee in 1969.
The PLO
Moving operations to Jordan, Arafat continued to develop the PLO. Eventually expelled by King Hussein, however, Arafat moved the PLO to Lebanon, and PLO-driven bombings, shootings, and assassinations against Israel and its concerns were commonplace events, both locally and regionally, notably with the 1972 murder of Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympic Games. The PLO was driven out of Lebanon in the early 1980s, and Arafat soon after launched the intifada ("tremor") protest movement against Israel occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The intifada was marked by continual violence in the streets with Israeli retaliation.

Nobel Peace Prize Winners
When Swedish industrialist Alfred Nobel died in 1896, he left his fortune to create an annual series of prizes for the individuals who confer "the greatest benefit on mankind." The most prestigious of the awards is the Nobel Peace Prize. Historians believe Alfred Nobel wanted to award people who work for peace to compensate for his own role in inventing dynamite. Since its establishment, the prize has gone to many courageous individuals who have fought for peace and human rights around the world.

It has a new icon too. This one is much more classy.

Yes it does. Still a lot of apps haven't updated though and the ones that do are the exact same just longer... Disappointed on some apps.

I have just finished our basement, and I have some odd crawl spaces. One that has an access door in the office. I need to hide the door, but still have access to it. I was considering using shutters, but I don't want to pay the $$ for them. I was wondering where would I begin looking for interior used shutters. Is there a "door" grave yard I should be looking at?
Thanks for any help..

Even a moderate amount of POST data leads to a 100% CPU usage for the splunkweb process. Impact: Denial of service (CPU exhaustion) against the Splunk server.

NewsHay River councilors select Andrew Cassidy as deputy mayorFriday, April 13, 2012 - 3:53 PM Yellowknife, N.W.T. - The job of deputy mayor in Hay River has finally been filled. Councilor Andrew Cassidy was elected to assume the role after winning a tight 3-2 vote over councilor Bernard Dueck this past Tuesday. Mayor Ken Latour says the run-off vote was needed because multiple candidates did step forward with an interest. "Our by-law basically directs us to have a vote, a secret ballot vote, amongst councilors when we have more than one person interested," he said. "That's what we did." Originally, Cassidy was going to be appointed deputy mayor because no one else had put their name in, but Latour had to backtrack on that because Dueck had indicated his intent to seek the position. Latour had said earlier Dueck's e-mail was lost in the shuffle. Cassidy says the vote was a squeaker and he's ready to take on the extra responsibility. "We work together very well," he said. "I think it will be good for us to continue working together and developing that relationship." The position had been vacant after councilor Mike Maher resigned in the wake of former mayor Kelly Schofield's resignation back in February.

Why I Wish 'Hawaii Five-0' Was More Like 'NCIS: Los Angeles'

Hawaii Five-0
is one of my favorite shows on TV these days. It's got great action, lots of good drama, a fantastic cast and intriguing storylines in almost every episode. There are just a few things that I wish it had more of; things that another favorite show of mine,
NCIS: Los Angeles
, does really well.
Steady partnerships
When I watch
Hawaii Five-0
, no matter how good a particular episode may be, I can't seem to help but to wish that the partnerships were more defined. On
NCIS: Los Angeles
, you know that you're almost always going to see Sam with Callen, Kensi with Deeks and Nell with Eric. Having these partnerships clearly defined for so long on the show has allowed those relationships to really develop. Having the teams clearly defined on
also makes it a lot more fun when they do mix it up a bit.
Hawaii Five-0
, the teams aren't nearly as well-defined. I mean sure, Danny and Steve are a team and so are Kono and Chin, but they are mixed up way too often for my liking. Every time I sit down to watch
, I find myself crossing my fingers that my favorite partnerships will be put together and not mixed up again. With any episode, it feels like there's about a 50/50 chance that we'll see Steve and Danny, or Kono and Chin, partnered up and I just wish we had better odds than that per episode.
A team leader not on the team
Another thing that I think works well for
NCIS: Los Angeles
is the fact that their team leader isn't really an active part of the team. Hetty has proven more than once that she still has mad skills in the field, and there's no doubt that she could be on the team full-time if she wanted, but I like that she's also got a certain amount of distance. It allows for the team to have a secondary team leader in the form of Callen, and I like that extra amount of interaction that creates between him and Hetty.
At first, it seemed kind of cool to have Steve as the team leader on
Hawaii Five-0
, but now I'm not so sure. His ranking within the team makes him feel different from everyone else, and not in a good way. I feel like the show would be better served if Steve was more like Callen in his team leadership and shared it with someone of higher rank on the outside.
Not just one hero
NCIS: Los Angeles
is a great example of a group of people who each have a part to play in the cases that they solve. Everyone has a pretty clear role in the investigations they handle and it is nice to come into every episode sort of knowing what everyone will do. But at the same time, I never get the impression that it's just one person on the team who is handling all of the work. They all do great stuff and there's never just one hero who consistently does all the work all the time.
On each episode of
Hawaii Five-0
, there is almost always one hero: Steve. Now don't get me wrong, I love Steve McGarrett and I think that he's an amazing character. But I definitely feel like there are times when the show could be called "The Steve McGarrett Show." Think about it, he usually gets all the good rescues, all the good stunts, and a lot of the best storylines. Not that the other characters aren't given a few moments here and there, but they are few and far between compared to Mr. McGarrett. Why not share the love a little more? That's all I'm saying.
What do you think of my comparison of
Hawaii Five-0
NCIS: Los Angeles
? Do you agree with any of my points? Vehemently disagree? Sound off in the comments below and let me know, I love hearing from you guys!

Associated Press

Hartford (AP) — A former Wethersfield man is facing sentencing for operating a fraudulent debt elimination scheme.
Deowraj "Deo" Buddhu is scheduled to be sentenced Friday in federal court in Hartford. He was found guilty last year of multiple charges related to the scheme.
Authorities say the scheme defrauded numerous struggling homeowners.
Prosecutors say in exchange for substantial fees, the 71-year-old Buddhu told victims about a little-known government fund that could be used to pay off their mortgages and other debts but no such fund exists. They say his victims ended up in foreclosure after he advised them to stop paying their mortgages.
His attorney says he has life threatening health problems and sought a reduced sentence.
His daughter, Sunita Buddhu, was sentenced to 30 months in prison for selling fictitious financial instruments.

We have designed a great course that takes runners from the Animal Services neighborhood south on Plymouth Avenue by Kodak, Care Stream, and Frontier Field, through downtown to Corn Hill Landing. From there runners enter the Genesee River Trail and head out toward Brooks Landing where they cross the river on the pedestrian bridge and head back toward downtown on the River Trail along the University of Rochester campus and Wilson Boulevard. Runners will continue on the trail while enjoying scenic views of the Rochester skyline until they exit the trail at South Avenue and weave their way through downtown back toward the finish line at the Animal Services Center on Verona Street.
The 5K course is also certified for accuracy by the USATF (#NY11101KL). It is an out-and-back course utilizing much of the first quarter of the 10K course. So it too will showcase downtown Rochester, Corn Hill Landing, and the Genesee River before bringing runners back to the shared finish line at the Animal Services Center.
Please visit www.VSAS.org for more event details, registration information, and complete 2012 race results and photos.

PRODUCT DETAILS Introduced by Kevin Crossley-Holland. Bound in cloth, blocked with a design by Roman Pisarev. Set in Palatino with Latin display. Illustrated by Roman Pisarev. 13 full-page drawings. Book size: 9¼" x 6½", 250 pages. |
In AD 119 four thousand soldiers of the Roman Ninth Legion march into the wilds of Northern Britain to quell a Caledonian uprising. They are never seen again. Legends abound as to their fate. Were they swallowed up by the mists that shroud this darkest fringe of the Empire? Did Queen Boudicca put a curse on the legion that crushed the Iceni? Of one thing there is no doubt: the honour of the Ninth has been lost with the legion's bronze eagle standard, and cannot be restored until the eagle is returned to Rome. Fourteen years after his father disappeared with the Ninth, Marcus Flavius Aquila experiences 'the glory of his first command' in the south-west of Britain. But his dreams of a military career are shattered when he is seriously wounded saving his garrison from a tribal rebellion. Invalided out of the army, Marcus sinks into despondency. What direction should his life take now? Gradually, however, as he makes his recovery at his uncle's villa, Marcus realises this is his chance to set foot in the uncharted territory beyond Hadrian's Wall - to solve the mystery of the lost legion . . .
Rosemary Sutcliff has an extraordinary ability to bring history alive for her readers. With its powerful evocation of the creeping mists and simmering feuds of early Roman Britain, and the symbolic quest at its heart, the Eagle of the Ninth is one of the best - and best-loved - of Sutcliff's historical novels.
