The Pharaohs of Ancient Egyptby Elizabeth Payne
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
For more than 3,000 years, Egypt was a great civilization that thrived along the banks of the Nile River. But when its cities crumbled to dust, Egypt's culture and the secrets of its hieroglyphic writings were
also lost. The Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt explains how archaeologists have pieced together their discoveries to slowly reveal the history of Egypt's people, its pharaohs, and its golden days.

Heavy Lifting Down Under: Australia's Half-Dozen C-17sAug 19, 2014 16:13 UTC
In March 2006, the Australian government announced that the Australian Defence Forces would acquire up to 4 new Boeing C-17 Globemaster III strategic airlift planes and associated equipment for A$ 2 billion ($1.49 billion then conversion). In April 2011, Australia upped their order to 5 aircraft, and will soon add a 6th plane to their fleet.
Since that first contract, RAAF C-17As have been rolling off the assembly line, arriving on or ahead of schedule, and flying the (un)friendly skies to support Australia's military and humanitarian efforts around the globe. The first plane arrived in Australia in December 2006, and the 4th plane arrived in March 2008. Even that didn't mean C-17 expenses were done. Ongoing maintenance, training facilities, and more must still be paid for, and Australia liked the Globemasters so much that it decided to buy more. DID chronicles the entire process, and its associated contracts.

Stop what you're doing ... put down the Cheetos ... and listen to the magic that is Ray J as he sings about banging Kim Kardashian ... 'cause TMZ has the first clip.
Ladies and gentleman ... we give you 30 seconds of "I Hit It First." You're welcome.
Now that you've listened -- and let's be honest it's pretty catchy -- remember why we've gathered here today ... so Ray J can remind Kanye West he's getting nothing but sloppy seconds.
Kanye WOULD respond with a rebuttal track ... but he's too busy releasing chart-topping albums.
TMZ, please stop with the "sloppy seconds" and all that silliness. Kim hasn't been a virgin since she was a child. Who is writing these "articles" about this Ray J situation anyway? A teenage boy?
Who cares about Kim and her life, wish she would fade away
I guess Ray J's next song would be, I gave Whitney Dope First
Ray j is trashy Kim has moved on it Seems you are Nobody without the Sex Tape kimmy this is in the past dont let it get you kanye be strong and stand by Kim she deserves to be Love by a True Africa man like kanye West a Real African man doesnt disrespect women but Rj should also remember that the sister is a murderer
I kinda like it.
"I give it a 7, it's got a catchy tune and you can dance to it."
Who in their right mind who have sex with such a discussing women, is there anyone in the country that hasn't had sex with her?. What is she famous for, her fat ass, disputing.
How would brandy feel if after talking someone Life is use as a Song against her do unto others as you want them to unto you but it also unfortune you and your mother will Sit. And watch RJ to disrespect. Women in that manner
haha... Ray J is determine to get rich off KK one way or another. Guest he's still pissed she got rich off that sex tape and he didn't. Geez, move on Ray J and stop being childish and jealous, you lost!-- trust us you were not KK first! UGH!
Not bad. Way more original than anything Kanye (the sample/remake king) has done. But who is he kidding? He was # 1001
Haha, rebuttal. Nice one!
He is pathetic... Move on and try to come up with something new.
I just listened to that crap and I gotta ask... all these years gone by between him and Kim-- what possessed him to suddenly create that nonsense? What was he thinking Jealousy, Revenge, Hate, trying to start a war between him and Kanye or what? It damn sure wasn't for money. lol
And you people WORSHIP these kind of slimy, s***ball, liberal trash. And TMZ makes MILLIONS off of you and them. Someday the stupidity of Americans will all be studied by students of the future and they will be amazed at what fools we were and understand how we fell.
Living to sexual and drugged excess while 90 MILLION didn't work and lived off the sweat of others.
I cannot believe this pathetic excuse for a man, is trying to humiliate this girl 6 years after leaking their sex tape. And while she's pregnant! I know she's no innocent, but Ray J, your mother should be ashamed. Shame on you for being so hateful. I, for one, now know who you are, and lack any form of respect for you. And I plain refuse to buy anything with even your initials assosiated with it. I hope you enjoy watching Kims happiness from afar. And remember that no matter when you "hit it", she'll always prefer Mr. West. You prick.
It's the truth. So what's the problem? Nothing.

Democratic Accountability and the Use of Force in International Law
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreThe spread of democracy to a majority of the world's states and the legitimization of the use of force by multilateral institutions such as NATO and the UN have been two key developments since World War II. In the last decade these developments have become intertwined, as multilateral forces moved from traditional peacekeeping to peace enforcement among warring parties. This book explores the experiences of nine countries (Canada, France, Germany, India, Japan, Norway, Russia, UK and US) in the deployment of armed forces under the UN and NATO, asking who has been and should be accountable to the citizens of these nations, and to the citizens of states who are the object of deployments, for the decisions made in such military actions. The authors conclude that national-level mechanisms have been most important in assuring democratic accountability of national and international decision-makers. less

Andre Drummond was selected by Team Hill in the 2014 Rising Stars Draft on Thursday night during 'Inside the NBA' on TNT. He was the fifth overall pick and Hill's third selection.
Perhaps partial to the Rookie of the Year award, seeing as he shared the 1994-1995 award with Jason Kidd, Hill selected Damian Lillard with his first pick after Team Webber made Anthony Davis the first overall pick. Hill followed that up with Bradley Beal and then picked Drummond after Team Webber selected Michael Carter-Williams.
Shaquille O'Neal played Vanna Black with his double-doubles -- and dumb, pretending not to know who Andre Drummond is when Hill said he was going to go big with a "fellow Detroit Piston, young fella, defender, rebounder, presence inside..."
By the way, former Michigan man Chris Webber drafted Tim Hardaway Jr. and TREY BURKE, so Wolverines fans will get to see those two run the floor together again.
You can watch the draft here.
The entire rosters, in the order in which they were selected, are below:
Anthony Davis
Michael Carter-Williams
Tim Hardaway Jr.
Damian Lillard
Bradley Beal
Andre Drummond

Sunday and Monday could have been an ugly stretch for the Bruins, and considering that they lost Adam McQuaid in the second period in Chicago, the Bruins should feel pretty good about coming out of a back-to-back against the last two Stanley Cup champions with three points to show for it.
David Krejci and Claude Julien both said after Sunday's shootout loss against the Blackhawks that the team didn't believe in measuring-stick games, but in a campaign that's seen the Bruins adjust to new players and lose Dennis Seidenberg for the season, games against two elite -- and different -- Western Conference teams on consecutive days figured to be just about as tough a test the Bruins could have.
As such, and knowing Monday that they would be without McQuaid, the Bruins raised their game against a fellow Cup contender to pick up a 3-2 win over the Kings with Chad Johnson in net. Brad Marchand scored a pair of goals to continue his hot streak (six goals over his last four games and 11 over his last 15), while the B's patched-up back end held strong.
Roster-wise, it obviously wasn't the look the Bruins would hope to have once they do reach the postseason (not counting that Rask will obviously be in net for all those games). Though Matt Bartkowski has been satisfactory as a top-four defenseman since Seidenberg went down, the B's could stand to add at least one veteran defenseman capable of playing big minutes. They'll also be a more difficult team to play against once Chris Kelly returns from his broken fibula.
Still, the fact that the B's, who fell behind earlier this month in meetings with the Kings and Ducks, can still bring it when need be against the best teams in the NHL is promising.
"We really feel that we've just got to go out there and play our game," Claude Julien said after Monday's win. "We need to be the confident team that knows when it plays its game it's a good team and can be one of the better teams in the league. We've got to stop worrying about what the other teams are going to do to us more than what are we going to do in that game. We gauge ourselves on that.
"Today, let's not look at the fact that we played yesterday and they didn't, let's just go out there and play our game and play with the energy that we need. I thought today, the important part was to make good decisions so that we didn't waste energy where we didn't need to."
The Bruins obviously knew the Blackhawks well from last season's six-game Cup finals, and they hung in there with them in an incredibly even-matched game Sunday. Though they had just five defensemen for most of the day, it was a game the Bruins could have won had Gregory Campbell capitalized on one of two open nets he had or Tuukka Rask sealed off the post on a bad goal allowed to Brandon Bollig.
Monday's opponent in the Kings presented a more physical team that plays more like the Bruins than Chicago, and despite having played and traveled the day before, the Bruins were able to match the Kings and pick up a win with their backup goalie in net.
"[Sunday vs. the Blackhawks] was one of those great games [fans] like to see," Julien said in Monday in assessing the two games. "[I] wish we could've had that extra point, but to come out here today and play an afternoon game against a team that's a real good team—one of the elite teams in the league—obviously waiting for us here. I thought we did a good job of coming out. In the first period we had a good start, and I thought that was important for our team to come out there and let them know we're ready to play."
The Bruins have had mixed, but overall positive results against the top teams in the league. Six of the eight best teams in the NHL record-wise are in the Western Conference, and the Bruins are now 1-1-0 against the Ducks and Kings, 2-0-0 against the Sharks, 0-0-1 against the Blues and Blackhawks and 0-1-0 against the Avalanche. That's good for a combined 3-2-2 against the top West teams, and if they are to meet any of them in the postseason they won't be worrying about those shootout losses.
As any honest player will tell you, it can be difficult to bring the same intensity each night over the course of an 82-game season. Lulls are going to happen and underachieving is going to happen. The Bruins, despite being atop the Atlantic Division, still seem to have their best hockey of the season ahead of them, both due to the fact that they just usually aren't President's Trophy candidates in the regular season and because they've undergone more change than seasons past.
They've gotten used to a group of forwards that has had at least one player on the top three lines that wasn't on the team last season. They've also played five young defensemen that weren't regulars on the team last season. The fact that they were able to beat Los Angeles with a back end of Zdeno Chara, Johnny Boychuk and four rookies is a rather impressive feat. Bartkowski logged 22:58, his second highest ice time total this season.
Though he played well and allowed the Bruins to move Zdeno Chara off the point on the power play, guys like Zach Trotman probably won't be suiting up for the B's come the post season. The fact that the Bruins can get points out of playoff-intensity games either way shows that they're still one of the elite teams in the NHL.

Hello everyone.
I have two drawings A and B. I work in A and I need some design elements from B.
When I open the drawing B everything I have in drawing A disappeared. I refer to all elements of design (blocks, lines, polylines, etc.).
After studying the issue have concluded that the design of all elements were automatically isolated. Right click> Isolate> End Object Isolation and everything reappears in drawing A.
Does anyone know why this happens?
I mention that I installed Autocad Map 3D 2012 x64 on Windows 7 x64 and work in Map Classic Workspace using the same coordinate system in both drawings.
the menu that you masked .... does that come from an application? If so do you have the same effect when you have not loaded that application and do the same tests?

(I'm just wondering why someone masks a menu in a screenshot, filename ok, but a menu?)
Thanks Alfred for the recommendation.
As for the print screen must admit that it was not necessary to hide the top menu. The menu above is from a lisp (TopoLT) that I use for many years (initially in Map 3D 2009) and had no problems so far.
I uninstalled lisp and tried to open two drawings without him. It follows the same error. Any idea?
>> I uninstalled lisp and tried to open two drawings without him. It follows the same error. Any idea?
I'm not sure if TopoLT is just written in LISP, so there might be other parts of the app active like ARX, DLL, ...
If you really have removed all app- or tool-like addons my last idea is to create a new profile (AutoCAD profile) or - most clean way I guess - to login to your workstation with another user and try it there (hoping that the app does not automatically register into new user-profiles.

What displays on the command line before you use the unisolate command? From your screen capture it looks like a selection set was created, if you just opened a file it should just say it open a trusted file.

There has been a lot of reinventions going on in the music world. It's been over a decade since UNKLE has released an album. The group is back with a new member and new sound. James Levelle along with new member Pablo Clements, have just released the new album 'Where Did The Night Fall'. Gone are the days of the trip-hop sound, sampled beats, DJ Shadow collabos, and breakbeat experiments. This time around, the duo has opted for a more industrial / Brit rock sound full of basslines, guitars, distorted vocals, and more. Featured on vocals are a plethora of musicians from all across Europe including Katrina Ford, Black Angels, Autolux, Elle J, Big In Japan, and more.
The new record draws inspiration from groups like Radiohead, Muse, Broken Social Scene, and even Joy Divison. 'Where Did The Night Full' art translates well as an indication to the content of the album. The tracks are moody song songs as opposed to sonic experiments.
Lavelle and Celements have stepped it up to become more than just producers with this new record. Although some may argue that is a less than mediocre return (did you really expect another "In A State"?), the guys are definitely headed in the right direction.
Click here to purchase from iTunes.

Law firm SORAINEN has won its third "Baltic Law Firm of the Year" award at the International Financial Law Review (IFLR) European Awards 2012.
The firm has already been honoured with this international acknowledgement two years in a row back in 2009 and 2010. IFLR established the award for Baltics in 2008.
SORAINEN received the award for its contribution to the most complex and innovative international transactions in the Baltic region in 2011. Recognition came particularly for legal and tax assistance in Hitachi's strategic investment in the new nuclear power plant project in Lithuania, the cross-border merger of Heidelberg Druckmaschinen subsidiaries in Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania and Finland, drafting PPP documentation for the approx EUR 1.5 billion worth Riga Northern Transport Corridor Project and advising on Elering's EUR 225 million debut Eurobond issue on London Stock Exchange.
"We are proud to be honoured by IFLR already for the third time. The highest expertise is one of our major goals since SORAINEN was established. The fact that our business-minded solutions in the most innovative and complex cross-border transactions are recognised internationally is the best proof of us being in line with our goal and doing the best to maximise potential of our client business," comments Aku Sorainen, senior partner of SORAINEN.
IFLR, part of Euromoney Legal Media Group and issued for over 20 years, is the world's leading publication for in-house counsel and practitioners in financial markets. The annual IFLR European Awards recognise the leading law firms in Europe for advising on the most complex and innovative international transactions in the areas of debt, equity and capital markets, project financing, restructuring and mergers and acquisitions (M&A). IFLR awards are based on submissions by firms plus feedback from clients, in-house counsel and financing specialists at international financial institutions.
With repeated recognition from IFLR, SORAINEN continues to be the most awarded and internationally recognised law firm in the Baltics. In addition to receiving the IFLR award in 2009, 2010 and 2012, SORAINEN was recognised as "Baltic Law Firm of the Year" at the PLC Which lawyer? Law Firm Awards 2009 and 2010 and as "Baltic Legal Adviser of the Year" at the European M&A Awards 2008 organised by The Financial Times & Mergermarket.
SORAINEN is the leading regional business law firm with fully integrated offices in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Belarus. Established in 1995, today SORAINEN numbers more than 120 lawyers and tax consultants advising international and local organisations on all business law and tax issues involving the Baltic States and Belarus. SORAINEN is the first law firm in the Baltics and the only one in Belarus to have implemented a quality management system under ISO 9001 standards.

A carrier for empty beverage cans comprising a flat body having compressible projections extending from the opposite sides thereof to be thrust through the opening of the empty cans. A loop permits the body to be hung against a wall. Projections of specific shape are disclosed.
1. A carrier and storage device for empty beverage cans comprising:
a substantially planar body of rigid material having two opposite, flat sides;
a plurality of elastically deformable, spaced projections integral with and extending horizontally from each of said sides;
each of said projections being insertable into the opening of an empty beverage can whereby said can is temporarily secured to the body by the compression of the projection as it passes through the opening followed by expansion of the projection after insertion.
2. A carrier as defined in claim 1 further including a hanger means extending from an edge of the planar body and at right angles thereto for supporting the carrier in a vertical orientation against a surface such as a wall.
3. A carrier and storage device as described in claim 1 made of molded plastic.
4. A carrier and storage device as described in claim 2, said planar body being rectangular in shape with rounded corners on the side opposite the wall for safety.
5. A carrier and storage device as described in claim 3, said projections being substantially in the shape of an arrowhead having:
a length on the order of one inch and,
an angular leading surface for guiding a can opening over the projection and to act as a cam to pinch the projection during engagement;
a shoulder point wider than a beverage can opening at the end of the angular leading surface for retaining the beverage can;
a concave tapered surface from the shoulder point to the point at which the projection is connected to the planar body to act as a cam to pinch the projection during disengagement of said can with the projection; and
a vertical slot through the center of the projection from the tip of the projection to the planar body for facilitating the compression of the projection.
6. A carrier and storage device as described in claim 5, said projections being arranged in a two by six rectangular matrix on both sides of the planar body, with the distance between the centers of said projections being at least the diameter of a conventional beverage can.
7. A carrier and storage device as described in claim 6, said hanger means in the shape of a ring extending upward from the wall side of the planar body, the plane of the ring being vertical and perpendicular to the planar body.
This invention relates to carriers for empty beverage cans and more particularly to a carrier on which the cans are disposed by causing projections on the carrier body to be thrust through the opening in the can tops.
At the present time, returnable beverage cans are accumulated in receptacles such as boxes or bags for return to the place of purchase. This is an unsightly and inefficient method which generally requires floor space and may be cumbersome to transport. The prior art also shows various means for carrying full beverage cans. One example is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,136,772 to comprise a plastic sheet having rigidified edges and round openings adapted to embrace the top side surfaces of several cans.
The prior art further includes U.S. Pat. No. 2,747,914 which shows a carrier for bottles including a handle connected to a depending shaft from which hang a plurality of wire rods, each rod bearing a sponge on the end farthest from the shaft. One thrusts the sponge into the bottle and hopes that frictional forces hold the bottles on the wires during transportation of same.
It is the object of this invention to provide a reusable carrier and storage device which will neatly store a number of empty beverage cans and at the same time act as a convenient carrier for returning the cans to the place of purchase.
In accordance with this invention there is provided a carrier and storage device for empty beverage cans which consists of a planar body having a plurality of deformable projections extending in spaced relation from each side of the body. Empty beverage cans may be affixed to these projections simply by thrusting the projections through the opening in the tops of the cans. In one embodiment, the projections have cam surfaces, a slot through the center to allow them to be compressed as they are passed through the can opening and then expand to effectively temporarily secure the beverage can to the carrier. The device is preferably constructed of a plastic material which can be injection molded in one piece, and includes a hanger loop which allows the body to hang against a wall, either with or without cans attached thereto.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the can carrier with several empty beverage cans affixed and,
FIG. 2 is a side detail of the can carrier showing the interaction between the can top and the camming projections.
Referring to the drawings in detail, there is depicted in FIG. 1 a can carrier generally identified by the numeral 10 which is made up of a planar body 11 of rigid material having opposite flat sides and integrally formed therewith a plurality of spaced projections 15. A hanger/handle loop 25 is formed so as to lie in a plane at right angles to the plane of body 11 and to project from an edge thereof. In this fashion, the body 11 may be hung against a wall with cans in place. In the illustrated form of the invention, twenty-four projections 15 extend from the planar body 11, twelve on each side, but it is to be understood that a different number of projections 15 may be provided in other embodiments of the can carrier. The body 11 is generally rectangular with rounded corners 12 on the side opposite the wall 14.
The projections 15 are integrally attached to the planar body 11 and extend opposingly from both sides of said planar body 11. As seen in FIG. 1, the projections 15 are arrayed in a two by six matrix and spaced apart from center to center by at least the diameter of a standard 12-ounce beverage can 30. The column of projections closest to the wall side 13 is spaced at least the distance of the radius of a beverage can 30 from the wall side to allow said side to abut the wall 35 when hanging from the loop 25.
Reference is now made to FIG. 2 which depicts a top view of a typical projection 15. Each projection 15 is shaped similar to an arrowhead and dimensioned to be insertable into the opening 31 of a beverage can 30. The length of each projection is about one inch. The shoulder 18 of said projection is wider than the can opening 31 when relaxed so as to temporarily secure the beverage can 30 to the can carrier. The slot 16 facilitates the compression of the projection 15 during the engagement and disengagement of a beverage can 30 with the projection as shown in FIG. 2. The angular leading cam surface 17 guides the can opening 31 onto the projection 15 and acts as a cam to convert the longitudinal motion of the beverage can 30 into a pinching force on the projection. The concave tapered cam surface 19 acts in the same fashion to pinch the projection 15 during the disengagement of the can from the can carrier.
The hanger loop 25 extends upward vertically from a long edge of the planar body 11 with the opening of said loop being positioned perpendicular to the planar body, so as to allow hanging the device from a nail 36, or carrying by hand.
The can carrier is preferably formed of a plastic material which is substantially rigid yet having sufficient flexibility to allow deformation of the projections. The plastic material must also be elastic to accommodate reuse of the can carrier. The can carrier will preferably be formed in one piece by an injection molding process to minimize the unit cost of the device.
It is recognized that many modifications of this device may be made in the dimensions, structure of the planar body, and configuration of the projections and hanger means. I have set forth the preferred form of the invention and I am aware that modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.

Hospitals Across the Country Vary Substantially in Their Use of Laparoscopy
Despite lower complication rates, study finds that some hospitals aren't performing minimally invasive surgery as often as they could.
Published: July 9, 2014
Surprising news from a study out today: Many U.S. hospitals aren't performing minimally invasive surgery as often as they could, despite evidence that minimally invasive surgery is superior to open surgery for most patients in terms of reduced rates of surgical site infections, decreased pain and shorter hospitalizations.
The new research study out today in the online British Medical Journal shows a wide variation in hospital utilization of minimally invasive surgery. A team of researchers from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine calculated the use of laparoscopic surgical procedures at over 1,000 U.S. hospitals in 2010 for 4 of the most common minimally invasive procedures done in the U.S.: appendectomy, colectomy, total abdominal hysterectomy and lung lobectomy. The team compared the number of open procedures to minimally invasive procedures.
What they found was considerable variability in what proportion of these operations were minimally invasive surgery. For example, 71% of appendectomies could be performed laparoscopically, but one-fourth of U.S. hospitals favored the open operation for most cases. Hospitals more likely to perform minimally invasive surgery tended to be large urban teaching hospitals located in the Midwest, South or West.
Lead study author Marty Makary, MD, MPH, a professor of surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, attributes much of the variability to differences in physician training at various hospitals across the country. He also notes that many patients aren't aware that a minimally invasive surgery option exists for their condition. "Patients who are candidates for minimally invasive surgery could be directed to a surgeon with minimally invasive skills, sparing more patients the risks associated with open surgery," says Dr. Makary.
