NYC scurrying to control outbreak of rats
Hurricane Sandy reportedly chased rats inland, with many moving into new neighborhoods in New York City.
The New York Times
NEW YORK — Officials in New York City are calling for a publicly financed program to bait, kill and remove rats in the wake of reports that Hurricane Sandy sent droves of the rodents scurrying inland, with many of them taking up residence in new neighborhoods.
Councilwoman Jessica Lappin, whose district includes the Upper East Side and Roosevelt Island, said she had been told of "alarming reports" about rat outbreaks. She has heard complaints of businesses having to shut down because of rodent-related health department violations, and of concern over what people perceive as more rats on the streets.
"As New Yorkers, we have a certain level of tolerance for rats," Lappin said. "But this is real public health issue, and people are rightly concerned."
Lappin, with support from the City Council speaker, Christine C. Quinn, has called for the city to hire additional pest control aides to conduct a six-month remediation program, at no additional cost to property owners. Lappin estimated that the program would cost $500,000, based on a similar city effort in 2011 in the parks.
Lappin said her office recently conducted an analysis of rodent complaints from several shoreline neighborhoods in Manhattan and Brooklyn to the city's 311 hot line, and found an uptick in the months after the storm.
Residents in neighborhoods of the Lower East Side, Lower Manhattan, Greenpoint, Coney Island, and Carroll Gardens/Red Hook filed 70 more complaints over the same time period last year.
The most calls came from the Lower East Side, to 123 calls so far this year, from 102 calls during the same time last year. Lower Manhattan's total more than doubled, to 16 calls from seven calls.
Lappin said she had reached out to the health commissioner, with hopes that the program can start as soon as possible.
"In these communities that were hard-hit, where not everybody is even back in their homes, and communities where we've seen upticks where people are struggling, that's where we should be spending our resources," Lappin said. "Not in ticketing people, but the city should be doing some treatment and remediation."
Since the storm, Timothy Wong, a managing partner with M&M Environment, a pest-control company, said business has been brisk.
Wong said the company started the week with 33 emergency calls from people throughout the city complaining about rodents, which he described as an unusually high number for a single day. "It's just gotten so bad," Wong said. "So many calls. It's just crazy." One client, a family in Harlem, he said, abandoned their home for a hotel over the weekend, until his company could come out on Monday.
Aside from the storm, Wong cited cold weather and trashy construction sites as factors driving rodents indoors.
"There's so much debris and garbage," he said, "and rats are having a field day."

It's the heart of the off-season, so you know what that means: time to break out the tape. Don't panic, though - we have not started rooting for either of the two horrible teams mentioned in the title. There is one person involved in this game who is worth taking a look at, however: Mike Tice. After sneaking his way into the playoffs with an 8-8 season, he went into Green Bay and led the team to an upset playoff win. Brett Favre did what he does best - throw interceptions in playoff games - and Daunte Culpepper and Randy Moss did what they do best - score touchdowns. I wanted to look at two specific plays the Vikings used in this game to get some sense of how Tice will take advantage of his new #1 receiver, Brandon Marshall. Flip below the fold for all the X-and-O details of Tice used his #1 receiver to break the Packers' defense wide open.
Moss sets, and the ball gets snapped immediately. Culpepper take a quick drop, looks to his right to see an open Randy Moss waving at him, and throws nice ball right into Moss' hands for the touchdown. Free safety Darren Sharper should have come over to help cover, but Tice kept him distracted just long enough by releasing the TE into the flat and sending Burleson on a slant. With receiving-threat RB Mo Williams also ready to run a route down the left seam, Sharper couldn't simply swing over to double-cover Moss: do that, and somebody on the other side will get open. It's a simple enough play, but it does a great job of forcing the defense to reveal its coverage. Plus, no matter what free safety decides to do here, he'll have to leave somebody in single coverage.
Tice knows that the Packers aren't going to make the same mistake twice: they're going to keep Moss in double-coverage from now on. So later on in the game, he runs a nice variation on the "I dare you to cover Moss one-on-one" theme. The Vikings have a 2nd and 1 just outside the Packers' 20. They again line up in a 2 TE formation, this time with a WR to each side. The Packers are once again showing blitz - and they've already gotten through once using a similar look - but the play does a good job of accounting for the pressure.
Here's what happens. Each TE chips the outside rusher (insert Mike Martz joke here) to slow down the blitz if it comes, then works his way into each flat. Randy Moss sprints directly towards the front post of the end zone, taking Sharper with him. Meanwhile, the RB (Ontario Smith, if you were curious) executes a run fake to the right, and then heads on over to the left side of the formation to make sure nobody has gotten through the protection. Culpepper sees that Burleson has gotten a step on CB Rod Carroll, hits him in stride, and Burleson strolls in the end zone for an easy six. It's like Bob Dylan said: you can double-cover some of the people all the time, but you can't double-cover all the people all of the time.
That's the thing about a #1 WR. You put them in single-coverage, they make the play; you put them in double-coverage, and somebody else is going to be open. Tice knows this as well as anybody. Thankfully, he can also put that knowledge to work, even when the line is playing poorly. Simply put, the Minnesota line looked pretty weak in this game. Culpepper's feet were able to get him out of a couple of sacks, but the Packers were able to harass poor Daunte fairly easily even when they rushed four . Tice, however, ran a majority of his offense out of a 2 TE formation, and he had the ends either chip before running their route or simply stay home and block. It wasn't always a pretty offense, but it was plenty effective. Let's just hope that Tice can bring some of that magic to an NFC North team that I'll actually want to watch.

When the car starts moving from a stop, and especially when coming to a complete stop, there is a rumbling/shuddering noise that comes from the rear wheels/suspension. This only occurs at low speeds coming to a stop, or starting from a stop. This problem is more pronounced in the morning when I first start the car. Can anyone give me an idea of what this is?

Although many apartment managers restrict dogs based solely on size, there are many other considerations which are of at least equal importance. One of the most important things, especially during puppyhood, is whether or not the dog is easy to housebreak. No landlord wants to deal with urine-soaked carpets when you move out.
It is also important that you choose a dog who doesn't have tons of energy which might require a large yard for exercise. Big or small, rambunctious dogs will be happiest in a home larger than most apartments.
Make sure you choose a dog who is not prone to separation anxiety. Certain breeds become very destructive when left alone for long periods of time.
Finally, look for dogs that are not terribly vocal. Your neighbors will appreciate your thoughtfulness!
DOG BEHAVIOR Getting bitten by a dog can be scary, and you may be tempted to run around in circles for a while, trying to figure out what to do. Here's our guide to help you manage the situation.
DAY CARE Sometimes our schedules change and we need some help watching after our dogs. Or, maybe we want to bring some other k-9s into their dialy lives. Here's our guide to what you should look for before leaving your four-footed family member with strangers.
DOG PSYCHOLOGYCommunication is the first step towards establishing a trusting relationship with your dog. Improper communication can damage the relationship between a person and their dog. Dogs feel confused and anxious when they cannot comprehend why they're being disciplined, commanded, or shepherded around.
HEALTHIf you've never had to face the horror of your dog needing a blood transfusion, you may never have given a second thought to canine blood banks.
SOCIALIZATIONIt's easy to do. After you bring one animal into your home, without tremendous amounts of willpower, you may soon find the four-legged residents of your home outnumbering the two-leggers. So how do you make the introductions between your dog and your cat without their fighting, well, like dogs and cats?
NEW DOG OWNERSDid you ever think about how valuable it might be to your puppy if you bonded with him or her? Bonding allows your dog to develop a special link to you and your family.
GROOMINGWe all know that you could spend a fortune on grooming your dog, but what grooming tasks are truly important and what ones are not really necessary?
OLDER DOGSYou may find that you must take your dog's age into consideration more often when making certain decisions about the physical care and well being.

Cellphone records have linked a Boynton Beach man to another armed robbery in Broward, according to Coral Springs Police.
Ranier Simeon Cox, 30, is accused of seven holdups so far and remains in a Pompano Beach jail cell.
Police obtained phone records from March 23 that showed Cox traveling north past cell towers between the TJ Maxx store at 1200 University Drive in Coral Springs and his home in Boynton Beach.

2 1/2 YEARS later & still no sound focus option

2 1/2 YEARS later & still no sound focus option
Doing a Google search for, "star trek online any way for sound to not lose focus", I found
this thread
This "feature" is very annoying since it lacks the option given to the player to turn it off or on, like other games I have played (Firefall has this option to turn off sound when the game window loses focus).
One of the reasons I find it annoying is that when streaming, it is very obvious you are losing focus to viewers of the live stream or if you are recording for YouTube. You just suddenly lose all sound.
It seems PWE/Cryptic developers didn't think of this or don't care. It is like this in Neverwinter as well (stupid mouse hostage there too...don't get me started on having to bring up a window in order to move my mouse off the game).
How about it devs? Do players have to wait another 2 1/2 years for this to be put in across all your games?

Justin Bieber "All I Want For Christmas Is You" Video
Mariah and Bieber's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" Video — Naughty or Nice?
by Becky Kirsch 4 Reactions 4 Shares Print
Justin Bieber's been spreading holiday cheer with his new single "Mistletoe," but he's not sticking strictly to original songs. Behold: his duet with Mariah Carey on her Christmas classic "All I Want For Christmas Is You," complete with a video that's more or less a glorified ad for Macy's. Mariah's clearly seizing the opportunity to show off her post-baby bod in a skimpy Santa suit, while Bieber loads a cart full of goodies and ogles Carey's stems. As much as I love this song, something about seeing Mariah objectified by Bieber gives me the creeps. Check out the video and tell me what you think!

'No verification' of accused Craigslist killer's 22 murders claim
Prosecutor says police haven't substantiated Miranda Barbour's claim she killed at least 22 people through her role in a satanic cult.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
HARRISBURG, PA.—Police haven't substantiated a newlywed woman's claims that she killed more than 20 people in four U.S. states before the killing that she and her husband are now charged with committing , a prosecutor said Tuesday.
Northumberland County District Attorney Tony Rosini said ethical rules bar him from commenting on the statements last week by Miranda Barbour, who with Elytte Barbour is awaiting trial in the death of a man they're accused of luring through a Craigslist ad for companionship.
Rosini, who's pursuing the death penalty for the Barbours, said in a prepared statement: "As of this date, there has been no verification of any of the information that has been the subject of media coverage regarding prior acts of the defendant."
Miranda Barbour, in a Friday prison interview with The Daily Item in Pennsylvania, claimed to have killed at least 22 people in Alaska, North Carolina, Texas and California in the past six years as part of her involvement in a satanic cult.
"I just want to get it out," Barbour, 19, told the newspaper.
In the current homicide investigation, the Barbours repeatedly changed their accounts of the events leading up to the Nov. 11 death of Troy LaFerrara, who police say met up with Miranda Barbour for companionship in exchange for money.
Ultimately, police said, Miranda Barbour stabbed LaFerrara about 20 times in her parked car. They said Elytte Barbour held a cord tight against LaFerrara's neck from the back seat and dumped his body in an alley.
Elytte Barbour told investigators the newlyweds killed LaFerrara because they wanted "to murder someone together," police said.
Defence lawyers are seeking psychiatric evaluations for the Barbours, who have pleaded not guilty.
Sunbury police Chief Steve Mazzeo has said investigators are aware of Miranda Barbour's claims about killings in other states and were contacting police in those jurisdictions.
North Carolina's State Bureau of Investigation "has been in contact with Pennsylvania authorities about this case," spokeswoman Noelle Talley said.
In Alaska, state troopers said they were "not aware of any information, beyond Barbour's comments quoted in the press, or evidence that would implicate Barbour with a homicide committed in Alaska."

BOSTON (WHDH) -- When the Red Sox players are riding the duck boats around Boston they will be making a special stop at the Boston marathon finish line to honor the bombing victims.
Members of the team have felt connected to the 'Boston Strong' since April 15 when the attack occurred.
"When the marathon tragedy happened, they didn't need to be told anything. It was a group of players that did stuff on their own. They came together on their own. It was a completely genuine, organic movement and it really drove them through the year. It's hard to put in words right now. It's a great feeling," Red Sox General Manager Ben Cherington said.

Wine class demonstrates the art of blending in Saturday, Nov. 10
Date: November 20, 2012
by: Mallory Gnaegy | A&E Editor
A person would have to travel to Massachusetts, Oregon, New York, California and eight countries in only two days to experience something similar to Sarasota's Bacchus on the Beach.
The Longboat Key Club and Resort brought wineries, winemakers and experts from around the world together Nov. 9 and Nov. 10, to offer a unique foodie experience.
More intimate events were offered throughout the weekend in addition to the grand finale, the Wine & Stone Crab Festival sunset dinner. There were five vintner dinners with menus from Key Club chefs, paired with wine from guest winemakers. And there were also three demonstrations that taught the average person how to become a wine expert.
One of the demonstrations was a blending class led by Michael DeLoach, of Sonoma's Hook & Ladder Vineyards, Nov. 10, on the beach. Attendees learned the art of blending wines and then had the chance to blend their own bottle.
Chemistry of wine
The blending class drew everyone from resort guests, to wine enthusiasts, to a winemaker from France.
DeLoach is the second generation of winemakers at Russian River Valley's Hook & Ladder Vineyards. Before jumping into the blending seminar, DeLoach explained his family's history:
It date backs to 1970 when DeLoach's father, San Francisco fireman Cecil DeLoach, bought the first 24 acres of what would expand to 900 acres of land. As a fireman, Cecil DeLoach worked 24 hours on, followed by 48 hours off. During his time off, he opted to grow grapes.
In honor of his career as a tillerman (the firemen who ride on the back of the truck), Cecil DeLoach created a blend called The Tillerman.
DeLoach told the group it's important that every blend has a muse.
"Now smell it," he said. The Cabernet-based blend leaves notes of spiced cherry.
He then talked about the four other varieties the winery offers and outlined a personality profile of wine-lovers: Sangiovese-lovers are classy, and people either love or hate the Franc — those who like it are strong-willed.
After sampling, the group recreated The Tillerman blend, made from each of the sampled wines.
Using a mouth-controlled pipette, individuals drew the correct measurement of each of the four wines into the tube and filled a beaker to 100 milliliters to recreate The Tillerman blend.
"It sucks to be a winemaker," DeLoach joked.
Making it her own
A&E Editor Mallory Gnaegy shares her experience of "blending in" while creating her own wine at the demonstration.
The first step in creating a new wine blend is creativity — which is probably the easiest step for me. What should my muse be?
One attendee said "sand and waves," and another said "crazy." I went with "after deadline," because that's when a glass of wine feels most deserved — and tastes the best.
During the seminar, we were told to attempt to create our own wine blend, and if it turned out bad to dump it, or drink it, and try again.
The base of the blended wine would be the highest percentage of the wines used — about 40% to 50%.
I listed the four wines I wanted to use, in order of favorite, then determined how much of each I wanted to use.
After Deadline would contain 50 milliliters of Cabernet Sauvignon, 25 milliliters of Sangiovese, 15 milliliters of Merlot and 10 milliliters of Cabernet Franc.
Mistake one: I picked up my glass of The Tillerman by mistake and blended it with the 25 milliliters of Sangiovese, so I had to drink it and start over — darn!
The second attempt at making my blend was successful, so I filled my bottle.
Aside from measuring, the hardest part was trying not to spill the wine. My placemat was splashed with red by the time I was finished. Luckily, what wasn't spilled turned out well. And after my deadline, it was even more delicious.

But the bottom line is: Finally we have a new podcast up. And even better news, this will be the first of two podcasts this week.
This one's a little late, and features Nick Dinicola, Holy Goalie, and Edie Sellers chatting about the news of last week. This week's show will be up in a day or two, so you'll be caught up very shortly.
If you meant to say "You hate me," then you got it right between the nuts on that one. *thumbs up*
Also, YAY for new shows!
OoooOOohhh… Good to know. Yeah, that's theoretically the song title. And hold on to your nuts, my friend. Two more shows in the next two days.

Restore Lt. Col. Matthew Cooley to Full Military Honors!!!
Lt. Col. Cooley was degraded and humililated by Gen. Dempsey, for doing a super job of teaching courses, and because the Obama Administration is so pro Islam, they saw fit to remove Lt. Col. Cooley from his position in performing his duties in an outstanding manner, but not to suit pro Islamists who have an influence on what our military teaches. This is Wrong, and all military and civilians who support our troops should make this known to the current administration!!!!! Shout!!!

Hot Button: Students protest at Carver High
Online readers responded quickly to an article about a protest Monday by Carver High School students, who refused to enter the building until administrators agreed to address scheduling problems, the lack of air conditioning in parts of the school and cuts to choir and band programs.
Here are excerpts from some of the comments posted on the story at commercialappeal.com.

The actions of the Carver students are a really good sign — evidence these students want to learn. These young people deserve better. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to do a schedule. Students, continue to peacefully demand the good education you deserve.

Politicians in Memphis and Shelby County could learn a lot from these kids.
MissTee wrote:
Band and choir are arts classes, which are core classes according to NCLB, and arts classes are required to graduate. They shouldn't need a grant to pay for them. It should be included in their budget. ...
Most people commenting on this article have no idea what has to go into scheduling any school, much less a large urban high school. There is a big problem with scheduling, But these problems have been going on for years and nobody has tried to fix them. The first month or more of school is lost for too many kids. It's a travesty.
Homersimpson wrote:
In response to MissTee: Nope — fine arts is not part of NCLB. Art class is part of NCLB. Big difference. Music class is part of NCLB. Big difference. But not band or choir.
WhitehavenOpinion wrote:
... The 2013 graduates are required to have an "elective core" of at least three related electives to graduate by the STATE OF TENNESSEE.
The dropping of band and choir could easily represent a graduate-or-not-graduate consequence for affected seniors. This is a "planning issue," or likely lack of planning, that easily falls into MCS' lap that has been (exacerbated) by the transition and natural budget reduction issues.

The Dodgers signed infielder Justin Turner to a minor league deal on Wednesday, according to Tim Dierkes of MLBTradeRumors.
Although the deal's terms have not been reported, the agreement does include an invite to major league camp in spring training, per Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times. Turner has played five major league seasons and batted .280/.319/.385 for the Mets over 86 games in 2013. He played all four infield positions for the Mets and will likely serve in the same role for the Dodgers, who could use some infield depth heading into 2014.
Indians sign LaHair
Former Cubs first baseman Bryan LaHair agreed to a minor league deal with the Indians on Wednesday, according to Jordan Bastian of MLB.com. The contract includes an invite to major league spring training. LaHair last appeared in the majors in 2012 with the Cubs, when he hit .259/.334/.450 with 16 home runs and was named to the NL All-Star team after a strong first half. The 31-year-old first baseman played for the Fukuoka Softbank Hawks in Japan last season, batting .230/.306/.428 with 16 home runs in 111 games.
In Cleveland, LaHair may face an uphill battle to make the team with both Carlos Santana and Nick Swisher in line for some playing time at first base. If the Indians do play Santana at third base, however, a spot could open up on the roster for another corner infielder.
Blue Jays ink Dominican pitcher Hansel Rodriguez
The Blue Jays have signed 16-year-old Dominican right-hander Hansel Rodriguez for $330,000, according to Baseball America's Ben Badler. After netting added international bonus pool space from the Angels in December, the Jays spent the extra money on Rodriguez, who went unsigned during last year's international signing period beginning on July 2. The 16-year-old Rodriguez already has a low-90s fastball and above-average curveball, which made him an attractive commodity. Per Badler, the Jays added the extra bonus pool money from the Angels specifically in order to sign Rodriguez.

Cricketers who weren't afraid of hooking or cutting - in a boxing ring
December 17, 2012
Related Links
Players/Officials: Andrew Flintoff | Johnny Douglas | Adam Hollioake | Don Cleverley | Bill Alley | Anthonie Ferreira | Justin Langer | Kepler Wessels | Jack Massie | Rolph Grant | Leo O'Brien
Teams: Australia | England | New Zealand | South Africa | West Indies
Andrew Flintoff
Flintoff's recent conversion from England cricket talisman to heavyweight boxer was much picked over in the newspapers. He certainly can't be accused of taking it easy in retirement, having lost a lot of weight for his recent professional debut, in which he beat an American veteran of two fights on points. His opponent was named Richard Dawson - but wasn't the offspinner who played a few Tests with Flintoff in the early 2000s. Still, there are many hoping that Flintoff now retires with a 100% ring record.
Johnny Douglas
Even Flintoff won't match the boxing feats of a former Test captain, John Douglas. Before he captained on the 1911-12 and 1920-21 Ashes tours Down Under, Douglas won the middleweight gold medal at the 1908 London Olympics. Suggestions that his father refereed the final seem to be wide of the mark, although he was a senior official at the Games. In cricket, Douglas's dour batting (and his initials JWHT) earned him a nickname that presumably didn't apply in the boxing ring: "Johnny Won't Hit Today".
Adam Hollioake
Another England captain (if only in one-day games), and a convert to a ring of a different sort: Hollioake's busy post-cricket career, back in his native Australia, now includes professional encounters in the newish - and occasionally savage - sport of cage-fighting (also known as mixed martial arts or MMA). "I've pretty much boxed since I was 12," Hollioake said. "I wanted to be a professional boxer back when I was playing cricket, but Mum and Dad wouldn't let me."
Don Cleverley
The Auckland fast bowler Cleverley had a Test career that lasted more than 14 years... one match in 1932 and another early in 1946. Unfortunately he didn't take a wicket in either game. But he was a national amateur boxing champion in New Zealand, and set up his own gym.
Bill Alley
The seemingly ageless Somerset allrounder Alley - the last man to score 3000 runs in an English season, which he did aged 42 in 1961 - was an earthy Aussie whose crooked nose attested to an early career as a boxer. He had 28 fights and won all of them. "There was even talk that I was close to a shot at the world welterweight title," he wrote in his autobiography, "but I can assure you I was a very long way from any such thing." His boxing career was, ironically, ended by a cricket accident - in the nets one day he was smashed in the jaw, and needed extensive surgery.
Anthonie Ferreira
The big allrounder "Yogi" Ferreira, who came from Northern Transvaal to spend several seasons as a popular import at Edgbaston, was a successful heavyweight boxer in his youth. He won the Northern Transvaal amateur championship - and then tried for the full Transvaal title, and lost his unbeaten record to Gerrie Coetzee... a man who later won a version of the world heavyweight title.
Justin Langer
The combative Australian batsman had a black belt in martial arts, and remains a boxing enthusiast. He might not have got into the ring himself, but his grandfather Harold did. "I think a fighter's instinct is passed on to you," said Langer. "My dad played Aussie Rules and my grandfather was an amateur boxer. I think toughness is instilled."
Kepler Wessels
Wessels played Tests for Australia and South Africa, after earlier being a fine tennis player - he was once the top-ranked Under-16 in South Africa, and beat Johan Kriek, a future Australian Open champion. Later he took up archery, with a view to making the Olympics, although his cricket coaching commitments got in the way of that. And he also fitted in a fair bit of boxing, which came in useful during dressing-room disagreements: "A group of us would go to my father's gym," remembered his then team-mate Yogi Ferreira (see above). "We would work out, maybe spar a bit. It was all quite light-hearted but Kepler loved it. "
Jack Massie Massie, a useful left-arm bowler who took 99 wickets for New South Wales before the Great War, might have followed his father Hugh as a Test player but for an injury at Gallipoli. He had tied some scarlet cloth to his right arm, to make that a clearer target for Turkish snipers and leave his bowling arm intact. Sadly, though, his left shoulder was still damaged, by shrapnel from an explosion, and he couldn't play again. Before the horrors of war, though, he had represented NSW at athletics, rowing and rugby, as well as cricket... and had also been an amateur heavyweight boxing champion.
Rolph Grant
West Indies' captain on their tour of England in 1939, Grant - who followed his brother Jackie into the top job - had earlier been the heavyweight boxing champion of their native Trinidad. He was also a goalkeeper good enough to play for England's amateur side while at Cambridge University.
Leo O'Brien
O'Brien, a small left-hand batsman from Victoria, might have been a fringe player in the 1932-33 Bodyline series - he made his debut in the second Test, and also played in the final one - but actually he was in on the birth of the controversial tactic: playing for an Australian XI against MCC early in the tour, he noticed several fielders crossing to the leg side for Bill Woodfull, and helpfully called out: "It's the right-hander down that end. I'm the left-hander." As David Frith's Bodyline Autopsy records: "The Englishmen smiled but did not reply." O'Brien was also a handy amateur boxer, who won his first 29 fights as a lightweight... then lost his 30th and last one.
12th man: Muhammad Ali
Cheating a bit, I know, but Muhammad Ali spent some time with the 1966 West Indians, including a visit to the dressing room at Lord's, while preparing for a world title fight in London (he had two that year, against Henry Cooper in May and Brian London in August). The obligatory photos of Ali swinging a bat predictably emerged later, although I prefer a shot of him and Garry Sobers having a chat - "The Greatest" with the greatest allrounder.

Fujitsu has expanded its LifeBook laptop line with a touchy-feely model that sports a gesture-enabled touchpad. Fujitsu_p8020_leftangle_01 Fujitsu's P8020 LifeBook: The P8020's touchpad lets you zoom in and out by moving two fingers closer or further apart. It also lets you perform a continuous scroll – something that Fujitsu …
oh, *touchpad*, for a second I thought it was the screen, must be something to do with the spin in that headline!
I know what gesture I'll be giving this then..
Tochpad or driver feature?
Surely it's the driver that's performing the feat meaning that any touchpad should be able to perform these features as long as someone cares to write support for for these "oh so wonderful" features?
Most older touch pads have a dedicated chip giving a PS/2 output... which did not provide this feature. The newer ones have a more useful chip for scanning across the pad and give the correct interface. However never let a good laptop manufacturer use quality / well designed components over cheap mass produced ones, as that might produce something really useful.

LOUISIANA—The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services today awarded $1,006,189 to Louisiana for increasing the number of children adopted from foster care. States use the funds from this adoption incentive award to improve their child welfare programs.
"All children deserve loving, safe and permanent homes," said HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. "It is gratifying that most states continue to excel in promoting the adoption of children from foster care. I sincerely thank every adoptive family in the state Louisiana that has welcomed a child into their home."

This year's incentive award recipients completed more adoptions in 2009 than in the 2007 baseline year.
"America's communities benefit when children grow up in stable families," said David A. Hansell, HHS acting assistant secretary for children and families. "We're very pleased that the adoption incentives program is helping Louisiana improve their programs and place more children into homes that are theirs forever."
States and territories receiving today's funding are: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming, and Puerto Rico.

Playa Olas Altas
Playa Olas Altas Review
Its name means "high waves beach," but the only waves suitable for bodysurfing, boogie boarding, or, occasionally, surfing small waves are near the Cuale River, at the north end of this small beach. Although Olas Altas more often refers to the neighborhood of bars and businesses near the ocean south of the Río Cuale, it is also the name of a few blocks of sand between Daiquiri Dick's restaurant and the Río Cuale. It attracts fewer sunbathers than Los Muertos but is otherwise an extension of that beach and gets lively during holidays with sunbathers and impromptu snack stands and shaded tables on the sand. Facing Olas Altas Beach near Lázaro Cárdenas plaza are open-air stands selling beach accessories, small grocery stores, and beach-facing bar-restaurants. Facilities: Food concessions, parking (at Parque Lázaro Cárdenas).
