- Ellie Linton
Ellis is the narrator the Tomorrow series and the leader of their group. She and her family live on a farm in the country town, Wirrawee, next to her friend Homer's farm. It's her idea for a camping trip into Hell, which results in them becoming a guerrilla group who fights the enemy.
Her best friends are Homer and Corrie, and at the beginning of the novel she invites Lee along because she has a crush on him. Lee and Ellie have a romantic relationship, and although they stay friends, the relationship doesn't last.
Ellie survives the war, but is shot in the leg and briefly taken into POW camp.
- Homer Yannos
Homer, who is Greek, has the farm next to Ellie's and they spent their childhood growing up together. He is often lazy and immature, but the war changes him and he often takes on a leadership role. He has a crush on Fi, and they begin a relationship in Tomorrow, When The War Began.
- Lee Takkam
Lee is probably the only member of the camping group that everybody doesn't know. Lee is Asian and his parents own a restaurant in Wirrawee. He is smart, strong and quiet and he has a romantic relationship with Ellie. However, after he finds out that his parents were both killed he becomes cold and distant, and even puts them in danger when he has a brief relationship with a teenage enemy, Reni. After the war he takes custody of his younger siblings, moves to Stratton and starts an accelerated academic course.
- Kevin Holmes
Kevin is the boyfriend of Corrie, which is how everybody in the group knows him. At the beginning he is immature and headstrong, but the war makes him strong and reliable. At the end of the first book he takes Corrie to the hospital after she is shot, where he is beaten and taken to a farm where he has to work as a slave. Eventually the group rescues him and he aids them in their guerrilla attacks. At the end of the war he moves to New Zealand where he gives talk at schools.
- Corrie McKenzie
Corrie is the girlfriend of Kevin and Ellie's best friend, who she has known her entire life. Corrie is shot at the beginning of Tomorrow, When The War Began and taken to hospital. It isn't until Darkness, Be My Friend that Ellie discovers that she has died.
- Robyn Mathers
Robyn, who is deeply religious, is the person in the group who is most against the idea of guerrilla attacks. However, she becomes incredibly useful when she rescues Lee after he has been shot and tends to his wound. Robyn dies in The Third Day, The Frost, after she kills herself, along with Major Harvey, with a grenade so the others can escape. Out of everyone Robyn is considered to be the most courageous.
- Fiona Maxwell
Fiona, aka Fi, is a "townie" who is smart, beautiful and posh. Although the group believes that she is different from them she fits in, and fights along with them throughout the entire war. She develops a relationship with Homer, but it doesn't last. Fi is the only member of the group who gets a reunion with her parents, albeit briefly, when she sees them in Darkness, Be My Friend. After the war she moves to Stratton with her parents.
- Chris Lang
Chris isn't a member of the camping group, but they discover him when during a raid on Wirrawee soon after they discover the town has been taken hostage. Chris is lazy and often drunk and high and almost costs them their lives when he falls asleep on sentry duty. In The Dead of The Night Chris decides to stay in Hell while the rest of the group explores, and when they return he has gone. It isn't until weeks later that they discover him dead in his crashed car.

Meet the Maker
Jade Jagger
If there's one lady you imagine would know how to throw a party, it has to be Jade Jagger. So when an invitation to view her new collection - with a guided tour courtesy of Ms Jagger herself - arrived on our desk, we knew we'd be in for a treat.
Putting a self-professed love of 'symbols' into action, Jade presented a selection of pieces from lines including Skullduggery (a range of skull-themed trinkets that have become something of a Jagger signature), the Indian-flavoured Rudra Beads collection (fashioned from gold-plated seeds and ruby beads) and Pope - regal rings that look good enough to eat.
Taking centre stage, however, was the all-new Disco Diamonds - a collection inspired by the iconic glitter ball that, presumably, has featured a lot in Ms Jagger's life. Cue a multitude of pieces featuring richly paved diamond orbs, a thumping disco soundtrack echoing around the normally refined environs of a Mayfair art gallery, and cocktails as tasty as the gems on show.
In between meet and greets, Jade took time out to tell Because about the importance of emotion in her work, creating bespoke engagement rings at her beachside Goan studio, and realising her dream commission.

The Canucks are set to wrap up their homestand tonight as the Phoenix Coyotes roll in. The Coyotes were able to slink out of Edmonton last night with a 3-1 win, and we will either get a tired Ilya Bryzgalov, or former Canucks backup Jason Labarbera tonight in net for the desert dogs. Both teams are hot right now, the Coyotes have won 4 straight, the Canucks have rattled off 7 in a row. Something has to give. The Canucks today will also find out the severity of the eye injury suffered by Manny Malholtra. Very concerned first for his well being, and secondly for the impact of losing the best faceoff man in the NHL as the Canucks head towards the playoffs.
I suppose things could be worse. Think about Phoenix fans. They're heading into the post-season with the knowledge that this could be their last season in the desert. It's gotta be a horrible feeling. Not gonna lie, I love the thought of a team in Winnipeg, and for the most part hockey has been a dismal failure in Arizona. The amount of money lost by the franchise since they moved makes the money the Jets were losing downright manageable. Still, I do feel bad for those who have supported this team through thick and thin. Perhaps the move is inevitable, but you've been done no favours by Emperor Bettman and his steadfast insistence that everything was alright.
An interesting stat popped up as I was doing my morning reading. 4 of the 5 Pacific Division teams are in a playoff spot right now. The Canucks' record against these teams in the last 15 meetings? 13-1-1. Yes, the potential of losing Malholtra hurts, but this team still has a lot of weapons at it's disposal. Victor Oreskovich has been recalled, but the exact placement of lines 2 through 4 is still unclear. Though I wouldn't be shocked if the Canucks took a night off, this team really has been motivated, and with one of their goals crossed off the to do list they made during the summer, they may also be using the next few games to send messages to Western Conference opponents: Not this time. The cup is going to be ours.
This bad news for Malholtra is good news for Chris Higgins. He's looked good so far in limited minutes, and you can expect to see more of him in the remaining 10 games. He may not be a straight up replacement for Malholtra, but if they get good news on the severity of the injury, he could fill the hole left by the Canucks unsung hero this season.
Scrambled Egg Wraps
A crazy night as the shuffling for playoff spots continues... in the West, Chicago got embarrassed by Dallas 5-0. Corey Crawford was pulled after giving up 3 goals on 13 shots. The loss dropped them to 7th place, with 3 games against their possible first round opponent Detroit Red Wings looming in the distance. Missing the playoffs is a very real possibility for the defending Stanley Cup Champions. Nashville and Calgary both won, the Preds are in 9th, one point behind the 8th place Flames. Toronto and New Jersey both lost, dealing serious blows to their playoff hopes, and Minnesota is pretty much done after dropping a 3-2 decision to San Jose... No further discipline from the NHL to Tampa's Vincent Lecavalier and Montreal's PK Subban after the two traded slashes last night. Subban recieved a minor while Vinny got 5 and a game. Meanwhile we await work on the fate of Nashville's Patrik Hornqvist, who got 5 and a game for elbowing Boston's Tyler Seguin. Fortunately Seguin was not injured. Unfortunately it has given every Bruins fan with a blog free license to mock Montreal fans by calling for Hornqvist's expulsion from the league. They're not quite as funny as they think they are...

Why I still hate you!
13 for 13 and we're supposed to forget, what you did against the Falcons, the Chiefs and the rest.
Make a few tackles, and shake your fist about, but your still a kicker, a joke and a doubt.
Maybe it was Me that is responsible for the change, when I verbally abused you in Flagstaff in the rain.
Or is it the holder you have try to pass the buck, but quite frankly Rackers I don't give a F$%K!
I still hate you, you don't have me fooled.
Once or twice for shame, go for it Thrice, and we are to blame!
So if you have hate in your heart, do not fear to shout, because I have paved the way, for you to let it all out!

Boldin is scheduled to make $6 million in 2013. They must decide whether to keep him on the books.
Dannell Ellerbe| linebacker | free agent
The young inside linebacker showed his worth with Lewis sidelined. They may need to keep him now.
Joe Flacco | quarterback | free agent
The Ravens want to sign Flacco to an extension. If they don't, the franchise tag will likely come into play.
Paul Kruger | linebacker | free agent
Productive pass rushers make top dollar on the open market, and Kruger had a career-high nine sacks.
Bryant McKinnie | tackle | free agent
McKinnie lost his starting job to Michael Oher and barely kept his roster spot. He is not expected back.
Ed Reed | safety | free agent
Will the mercurial safety retire? Will he be back? Will he sign elsewhere?
Bobbie Williams | guard | possible retirement
The 36-year-old has another year left on his deal, but could opt to retire now that he is a backup.
Cary Williams | cornerback | free agent
Williams rolled the dice by turning down a three-year, $15 million deal. We'll see if his gamble pays off.

For a home team that wasn't really a home team, the King Philip Warriors boys basketball team and their fans did everything they could to make it a home game.
While there was a lack of green and yellow painted on the court and the gym was a little bigger than what many from KP are used to, the noise from the crowd alone made it a home game.
"I know the players win the game but those people behind us really did a great job supporting us," KP head coach Sean McInnis said.
At times close but holding the lead for most of the game, the Warriors advanced to the quarterfinals of the MIAA Division 2 South Sectional basketball tournament with an 83-68 win over the Whitman-Hanson Panthers at Taunton High School.
Check Wrentham Patch tomorrow morning for a full game story.

S.N.H.U. snaps Hound women's basketball win streak at four . . .December 20, 2009
Southern New Hampshire 56, Assumption 47
MANCHESTER, NH -- Senior guard JENNY MC DADE (Derry, N.H.) scored 13 points to lead Southern New Hampshire University to a 56-47 non-conference women's basketball win over Assumption College at the SNHU Fieldhouse Sunday.
SNHU remained undefeated at home this season (5-0), improved to 7 4 overall. The Greyhounds, who are receiving votes in the latest WBCA Division II poll, saw a four-game win streak snapped and are now 7-2 overall.
Freshman forward SLOANE SORRELL (Berwick, ME/Noble) scored 10 points and senior forward ASHARA CARRINGTON (Marblehead, MA/Marblehead) added nine points and 13 rebounds.
Freshman guard GABRIELLE GIBSON (Amityville, NY/Copiague) was the lone Greyhound in double figures with 15 points. Freshman guard KATY HOWARD (Medway, MA/Medway) added eight points.
SNHU led 30-17 at halftime and 38-21 four minutes into the second half following a pair of free throws by Sorrell, but the Hounds would hold the Penmen to just one field goal in a stretch of 8:27 to pull within three, 40-37, with 7:31 to play on a Gibson layup.
The Greyhounds are next in action at the Pace University Mixer (December 28-29) when they play Felician, NJ and Bloomfield, NJ.

Big thanks to G311 for the share of this fantastic brew. I have sampled a few Wild/Bretted IPAs, with varying degrees of success, or lack thereof, exhibited thus far; this one, however, is very very good. Firstly, I must make a comparison to Orval, for though Tristessa doesn't taste like it (though it does look like it), it seems to share similar inspiration and execution. The brew is definitely hoppy, tending towards fruity and orange-citric, and the Brett lends an exotic pineapple-y note that really melds well. The base is pilsner-esque, dry, earthy, and mineral-y, with just the smallest dose of breadiness. The wine barrels, besides adding the Wildness, add very understated fruity-vinous notes, in the range of dried and golden orchard fruits. Oakiness and tannic notes are restrained. This beer is fantastic; hugely drinkable, complex, distinctive, and totally balanced. Overall, McKenzie may be the greatest kept secret in the game, ca. late 2011.

Thanks to thirdeye11 for sharing this bottle.
The beer pours a yellow color with a huge white head. The aroma is very heavy on the brett. I also get notes of leather, lemons, pineapple, funk and wheat.
The flavor is just as complex, if not even more so. I get quite a bit of tropical fruit, as well as some grain, wheat, lemons and flowers. The brett also stands out in the flavor. There is quite a bit of hop bitterness, as well as hop flavor.
Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
You can definitely tell this beer was an IPA before it was turned wild. An excellent experiment and very well done.

Bottle shared by Ari. Aroma: Rather hoppy, belgian yeast, awesome floral profile. A: Blonde beautifull lasting white head. Flavors: Mostly bitter, floral hops dominates with a nice yeasty signature. A little too hoppy, I would have let more place for the yeast to shine. Palate: Just like a saison should be. Lively carbonation, medium-full mouthfeel and dry finish. Overal: My type of saison. Excellent.

3.9/5 rDev -6.3%
Thanks to Mike and Nathan for this. Apparently, it's a Belgian IPA aged in wine barrels with a little funk.
Clear copper-orange with a dense, white head, this looks great. The nose is surprisingly bright and citrusy, with a prominent orange and tangerine character. A light Belgian funk is present, less Brett-like and more like a spicy, mildly phenolic yeast strain in conjunction with warmer fermentation temperature. A little honey is present as well. The palate opens bright with plenty of fresh citrus, a moderate yeasty flavor and some honey. A little tartness is present as well, but this is mostly a spicy and citrusy beer. Medium-light in body, this dries up of the finish that's got some tartness and citrus. Quite excellent.

Long time drinker, first time reviewer... here we go...
Served from a red wax dipped 750ml bottle. This one was a slow gusher once I got it open, could have been that I agitated the beer while getting the wax off.
Pours a somewhat dark amber with plenty of off white head that recedes to a ring after a couple minutes.
Aroma is mostly from the oak and the red wine. I can detect some hop aroma and a light funk, but the oak and wine dominate here.
The taste follows the aroma in that the red wine and oak dominate, but then things get interesting. There's quite a bit of bitterness mixed in with a light sourness before a pleasantly dry finish. The tannic aftertaste lingers long after it goes down.
Mouthfeel is smooth with moderate carbonation making it easy to down this whole bottle without batting an eye. I'll have to grab another bottle of this and see how it develops over time.

4/5 rDev -3.8%
From a 750ml bottle, pours a clear light gold with a thick meringue head. Nose is lactic and full of light fruits like peach, apricot, maybe lemon, with some hay and grass. Mouth is young and a bit astringent, though a lot of the sour, fruity components do shine. Almost a bit of bitter grassy hops, as if this is a cross between a saison and a sour ale. Kind of similar to Grisette Brux but not as well-integrated at this age.
I let a bottle of this age for another few months as it seemed young and the wild yeast rather thin last time. After hearing someone describe this as a "wild Belgian IPA" or something, I think I understand this more. Time has allowed the brett to blossom and it's quite better now than it was fresh. Grassy hops, kind of grainy, rye almost. Sourness really meshes well, as this style is tricky to pull off, but I like this one. Lots of light citrus, especially lemons. Not incredible, but good, and I'm bumping the score up a bit.

750 mL, capped, red wax dipped bottle. Description from the bottle: "A golden colored ale brewed with a high dose a American hops and Belgian candi sugars, aged in a French oak wine barrel for 3 months where brettanomyces bacteria and an additional dose of hops add further layers of complexity. 14.7 plato 7% abv 75 IBU". So I guess they call it a wild, barrel aged Belgian IPA, though I figured American Wild Ale was the most appropriate descriptor here.
Pours a pale, translucent straw golden color with a massive frothy white head that has long lasting retention and produces thick clumps of lacing. Initially I have trouble distinguishing the aroma of this beer from some of the other McKenzie beers as the French oak wine barrels they use are very distinctive. The aroma is dominated throughout by sweet oak and fruity vinous notes, with a strong hoppy finish. As the beer warms, there is light earthy funk but overall the aroma is fairly mild and boring compared to some of their other beers.
Body is medium thick, with soft carbonation with a fairly thin dry and hoppy finish and no alcohol presence. This beer tastes fairly young and raw, in need of some aging. The flavor has a strong lemon and earthy sourness with a fruity and oaky background from the barrel aging. There isn't much in the flavor from the Belgian candi sugars, though there is a very strong hop presence similar to 2 Threads. I would describe this more of a strongly hopped, sour Saison, than a wild Belgian IPA, but that description probably makes this sound more interesting than it is currently. Definitely tastes like a McKenzie beer, and the strong hopping makes this unique, but not among the best of their recent offerings.

I don't think I would put this in the wild ale category. I'd almost call it a Saison.
Pour: Straw-yellow-gold, huge white head that leaves some nice lacing down the glass and craggy foam in the middl.e
Smell & taste: Very oaky and fruity with a faint funk backdrop. Somewhat of a vineous element.
Mouthfeel: Great carbonation, smooth and soft
Drinkability: Easy drinking, even at 7%. I am surprised this one is completely off the radar, I received mine as an extra in a trade.

First let me start by saying, I am a dedicated Chiefs fan, and hate the Falcons for taking away our Tony G (not really). The Falcons are very very close in my opinion. I really wanted the Chiefs to trade up and take Jones, and maybe the reason ATL gave up so much was because they were out bidding Pioli to make the move. JJ is going to be an absolute beast. He has a great mentallity to succeed. I can't wait to see him on the field.
Anyways I spend lots of time daydreaming about football. Which team could do this, which team could that. I do it a lot, and I've come to the conclusion, that I believe ATL needs one FA to win SB 46.....Nnamdi.
I already read the post thats on here about it, and understand where most of the fans are coming from with the financial view, but I think some people ar missing one valuable asset Nnamdi brings....knowledge. Nnamdi would not only be a great move for the here and now, but also for the there and later. Nnamdi would bring a great deal of knowledge and experience for guys like Grimes. Imagine how good Grimes could get learning under Nnamdi. I'm not sure what kind of contract Nnamdi is looking for, but I would try and sign him to a 2 year 28 Mil. I think that's a very good deal. That would get the big deal off the salary cap in time to sign a lot of big names coming into contract years soon, and would give the younger DBs time to learn under him, while also (imo) getting to the SB. I personally think ATL is that one dominate defensive piece away from being a SB team. Nnamdi is pretty much a once in a lifetime type FA. The most dominating CB in the NFL rarely hits the market. Anwyas leme know what you guys think? Did I sway you? or were you already on the bandwagon?

Review by Andrew Novick
Summary: A targeted book for those upgrading to ASP.Net 2.0.
This book was intended for me. I'm an experienced developer of ASP.Net applications and I'm ready to move on to ASP.Net 2.0. The book assumes that you know ASP.Net programming and takes you through the new features step-by-step in an easy to absorb style. All of it is based on using Visual Studio 2005 for your development environment.
The style of this book and, I think, all the Murach books is to pair up facing pages. The left side has text that explains the subject. The right side has examples, pictures, and other learning aids. Often this is a reiteration of the left side in a different style. This worked well for me and made it pretty easy to consume the content in byte size chunks.
This book is based on VB.Net 2005. There's only a little material on the changes to VB.Net 2005 from the previous version. There's also a C# book available. Due to client requests I've been doing most of my recent work in VB.Net so I chose this version.
Overall, I found it a great resource for the task at hand: learning ASP.Net 2.0. I'd recommend it to experienced developers who are ready to upgrade.

CBS's Parting Shot at Bush: Lowest-Ever Approval Rating
The CBSNews.com summary of the poll pointed out the partisan disparity in assessing Bush:
Views of Mr. Bush's popularity are highly partisan. Only 6 percent of Democrats approve of the job he has done as president, while 57 percent of Republicans approve. Eighteen percent of independents approve.The short item from Rodriguez on the Friday, January 16 CBS Evening News:
There's no question the economic crisis contributed to President Bush's poor showing in the final CBS News/New York Times poll on his job performance. This poll, out tonight, puts Mr. Bush's approval rating at just 22 percent. That is the lowest for an outgoing President since the question was first asked more than 70 years ago. Meanwhile, 68 percent said they expect Barack Obama to be a good or very good President.

Autocross Returns to Waldorf on Sunday
Waldorf, MD - 10/21/2011
By Andy Marquis
Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) Autocross will come back to Regency Furniture Stadium in Waldorf on Sunday where drivers will get the chance to drive on the edge. During the events, Charles County Commissioner Ken Robinson (D: 1st) will issue a County Proclamation.
SCCA is one of the nation's oldest auto enthusiasts clubs in the Nation. During the 1960s, SCCA endurance racing frequented the Southern Maryland region at the Marlboro Motor Raceway race course, a track credited for launching the career of Roger Penske.
Autocross racing allows hobby racers to take their cars and drive to the limits on legal courses in the United States. The runs are solo timed runs, which reduces the risk of wrecking in to other cars and promotes safe competition.
Schedule of Events
8:00 AM Preregistration check-in and day-of-event registration (bring driver's license and for members, SCCA card)
8:15 AM Tech inspection opens
9:00 AM Registration closes
9:15 AM Tech closes

Denver Broncos 10
Craig Morton had spent nine years as a Dallas Cowboy quarterback, but he was on the opposite sideline for Super Bowl XII between the Denver Broncos and those Cowboys. Morton was now the starting quarterback for the AFC champion Broncos, while Roger Staubach, the man who had replaced Morton in Dallas, would start at quarterback for the Cowboys.
Red Miller was in his first year as head coach of the Broncos and he led them to a 12-2 record behind the strength of their "Orange Crush" defense. Denver defeated Pittsburgh, 34-21, before slipping past Oakland, 20-17, in the AFC playoffs.
The Cowboys also ended the season 12-2 under Tom Landry, including a 14-6 win over the Broncos in the regular-season finale. In the playoffs, they easily defeated Chicago, 37-7, and Minnesota, 23-6, for the NFC championship.
Super Bowl XII was the first to be played indoors. The Louisiana Superdome was packed and a crowd of 75,804 witnessed a mistake-filled first quarter as the Cowboys fumbled three times. Unfortunately for Denver, Dallas recovered all three fumbles. The Broncos made a habit of taking the ball away from the opposition, but the bounces were not going their way early in the game.
The Broncos committed the first turnover of the game when a Morton pass was picked off by safety Randy Hughes on the Denver 25. After five plays, Tony Dorsett ran the last three yards for the first score of the game. After another interception of a Morton pass, Efren Herrera kicked a 35-yard field goal to put Dallas up, 10-0.
After a controversial call on an apparent Staubach interception, the Cowboys stretched the lead to 13-0 with a 43-yard Herrera field goal. One of the officials ruled Staubach had stepped out of bounds before releasing the football. An overhead replay seemed to indicate different.
Before the half was over, the Broncos had turned the ball over seven times while picking up just three first downs. They fumbled the ball away three times, and Morton was picked off four times.
The Broncos got on the scoreboard on their first possession of the second half thanks to a 47-yard field goal by Jim Turner, but the Cowboys came right back. Staubach hooked up with Butch Johnson on a diving 45-yard touchdown pass that put the Cowboys ahead, 20-3.
The Broncos hopes were sparked again on the ensuing kickoff which Rick Upchurch returned 67 yards, to the Dallas 26. Four plays later Rob Lytle plowed in from the one-yard line, making the score 20-10.
Denver was down ten going into the final quarter, but they had become accustomed to winning games late, so they still believed they could win. But those hopes came crashing down when Robert Newhouse connected with Golden Richards on the half-back option for a 29-yard touchdown, making the final score, 27-10.
The Dallas Cowboys were once again Super Bowl champions!

An inmate at Putnamville Correctional Facility was killed in a stabbing by another inmate Thursday, the Indiana Department of Correction said.
Darwin Elmore, 34, died in the stabbing, which prompted a lockdown at the prison. It happened around 6:45 pm in a general population dorm.
Emergency Medical Services responded to the scene, and the coroner pronounced Elmore dead at 11:32 pm.
Indiana State Police have identified a suspect, whose name will not be released until he is formally charged. The inmate has been isolated from the general prison population due to safety concerns.

...a whole bunch of people start rolling their eyes.
Well, that's just great. Looks like Our Man Wilner's trying to get the Boise-staying-in-the-MWC train rolling again. I suppose we're all now supposed to wonder and wait and watch for what the BigWest does, before Boise State finally-finally-FINALLY! figures out what it's going to do?
Hasn't anyone learned from this whole thing that depending on things like "several realignment sources" tends to make you put out heap-big loads of rubbish? Like seven tweets' worth of talking out your arse?
FFS, man, haven't we already had enough of this?

Ease of Acquisition:
Other condoms, such as the Durex Avanti Ultima condom and several Pasante brands are currently formulated as vegan condoms, but they are not registered as vegan products. They are, however, probably easier to find in your local drug store.
Use During Vaginal Intercourse:
Use During Anal Sex:
Use During Oral Sex:
The Verdict:
Although it would never have occurred to me that a condom wouldn't be vegan, it turns out that many condom companies process their latex condoms using casein - a protein derived from milk. There are several condom companies that do not use casein, however, and at least two of them (Glyde & RFSU) have registered with vegan groups in a pledge to remain animal-friendly. These condoms use no animal testing and no animal by-products.
- Where to Buy Vegan Condoms - From Cory Silverberg, the Guide to Sexuality
I think it's wonderful that condom companies are marketing safe sex to the vegan community. Vegan latex, polyurethane, or polyisoprene condoms should have the same safe sex benefits as the non-vegan variety, and anything that encourages more people to practice safe sex is fine with me.

iPhone SDK
Welcome to the Unofficial iPhone SDK Feedback Project.
This is an iPhone developer community project to provide constructive feedback to Apple relating to iPhone application development, deployment, and distribution through the App Store.
Read more in the launch announcement: http://mobileorchard.com/sdkfeedback
increase the transparency of the app review process
make devs aware of their submission status for each step of the process, with *mandatory* and *specific* notes describing any delay past a pre-set time interval for each step341 votes
allow a mechanism for developers to reply to review feedback.
I often see people using the review system instead of contacting support for help. However, there is no way to respond to these "reviews".236 votes
support in-app purchase within free apps
This would:
1. create a "trial ware" business model option.
2. increase lite-to-paid conversions by enabling impulse buys: finish the last free level of a game? buy the whole thing right from the app and play through!
3. simplify lite-to-paid data migrations. e.g., when switching from a lite-to-paid version of a productivity application either (a) I have to re-enter all my todos or (b) the developer has to create server infrastructure to do it for me.218 votes
allow access to Calendar (read/write)
I want to be able to manage calendar events automatically from my apps208 votes
Allow access to real-time camera data
I would like access to the real-time camera data as it comes into the system. Right now when you launch the camera, the api only allows you access to the final image (or video). I would like to be able to act on data coming into the camera in real-time, enabling augmented reality apps/games.157 votes
Background process
Apple should enable background processes.
If the only thing that's stopping them is the battery drain, they should put a toggle in the settings that would allow users to run apps in the background.149 votes
support polylines in the MapKit framework
The MapKit currently does not support polylines, which are an essential interface element for drawing paths and routes on a map. There are some hacks to simulate polylines, but direct API support would benefit all sorts of apps.116 votes
Extend the sms: URL scheme to allow handing over recipient AND message text.
It's currently impossible to programmatically compose an SMS. While you can launch the native SMS application and have a single recipient pre-populated, you cannot hand over the message text itself.
This renders many use cases impossible.
One could argue that programmatically sending SMS exposes a security risk. I strongly disagree. I'm not suggesting to allow to SEND an SMS programmatically, but to prepare a complete SMS and have the user manually hit the "Send" button of the native Messages app.111 votes
Local push notifications
The calendar 'runs in the background' (the date on the icon changes at 0:00 AM and it can display alerts at given time/date).
Why not allow apps to register themselves to receive a notification at a given time? The app can choose to display a notification or launch itself.104 votes
Do not solicit app ratings on app removal (produces biased results)
All apps when removed invoke the rating request dialog. This results in a lot of users rating your app poorly as rating upon app removal generates biased results for obvious reasons.
If you must keep this mechanism than please find a way to make it less biased.
How about soliciting reviews from people after they have launched the app 5 or more times?95 votes
Make promo codes available for use outside the US
Right now you can only use promo codes in the US App store. It would be nice if you can give out promotional copies of your apps to people in other countries, especially if you are not US-based developer.81 votes
77 votes
allow unlimited off-App Store app distribution, but not via Ad-Hoc distribution
In some instances, I'd like to be able to bypass the review process and distribute apps from outside the store -- e.g., from my own a website.
Ad-hoc builds aren't acceptable because they require knowing UDIDs ahead of time.
In this scenario, Apple can curate apps within the store, providing their sought after user experience for typical users, while more adventurous users can go farther afield.72 votes
Support forward geocoding in MapKit
This would allow users to be able to search for locations. This is largely on the shoulders of Google.69 votes
Backlight levels, airplane mode etc.
Would love to have greater control over Device Controls such as the ability to control backlight levels, Airplane mode etc from within an app.
Obviously the user will need to "allow" this just once per app (rather like location services) but it would be great for Astronomy apps, Alarm Clock, etc.66 votes
open up their bug tracking system so we can search for existing issues before submitting our own
Obviously, you'd need to be a registered developer to see the open bugs.
I just can't bring myself to open a bug when I have no idea whether anyone else has opened one with the same issue, or even what kind of standards there are for their bug submissions. I can't be the only person who feels this way.57 votes
Remove country barriers from iTunes for developers
Developers outside of the US cannot report reviews as bad reviews for stores other than their own country. If I'm a Canadian developer a user could simply load up my app and decide to put "This app makes my iPhone crash every time I load it" even if that were false it would destroy your sales and you have no recourse other than emailing random email addresses at Apple to hopefully get it removed. Allow us to view and purchase our competitors apps, allow us to report bad reviews for all countries.50 votes
support/allow development in Windows/Linux
I would like to develop some iphone apps but can't because I haven't got a mac, and I can't afford one. Allowing people to try Obj C development before buying in would encourage greater uptake.49 votes
Allow use of Core Data with custom SQLite builds, open SQLite data store API
There are many great and popular extensions to SQLite for full-text search (FTS3), sequencing, and encryption (SQLCipher) that cannot be used with Core Data because it is linked against the vendor-supplied SQLite build. High speed full-text searching and encryption are really important for mobile applications and would greatly benefit the developer community.
In addition, the Core Data API should expose the persistent store class(es) for interacting with SQLite and allowing the construction of other non-atomic persistent stores. Currently, only NSAtomicStore is supported, use of which is not ideal for mobile applications.47 votes

Booty's career quietly solid
BEVERLY HILLS — Nothing seems to rattle USC quarterback John David Booty.
Not a broken middle finger on his right throwing hand that forced him to sit out three mid-season games of his senior season.
Not a four-interception outing in an upset loss to Stanford that would ultimately cost the Trojans a chance to play for the national championship.
Not even the close-up encounters with the media leading up to Tuesday's Rose Bowl game with Illinois, fielding questions that poke, prod and pry into his own psyche.
"No, it really doesn't bother me," he says with a smile. "I know you all have jobs to do, and Ill do my best to help you out. I'm trying to enjoy as much as I can from playing in my last Rose Bowl."
That's vintage Booty. Cooler than jazz. Calmer than a summer day in his hometown of Shreveport, La.
And, oh yes, maybe the most under-appreciated and underrated quarterback who ever donned Cardinal and Gold.
All Booty has done is throw for 5,870 yards and 52 touchdowns, help produce successive Pacific-10 Conference championships and lead his team into back-to-back Rose Bowl games.
His misfortune? Following consecutive Heisman Trophy winners, Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart, into the quarterback position at USC.
"He had a difficult act to follow, and he's handled everything with class and grace," said USC offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian. "He really should be remembered as one of the best quarterbacks to every play at our school. His numbers are terrific. His only problem is following two Heisman Trophy winners."
A season steeped in adversity, for both the quarterback and the team, ends up in Pasadena in a BCS bowl game with No. 6 USC taking on No. 13 Illinois.
That doesn't measure up to the preseason expectations — which included a national championship and a Heisman Trophy — but it's a happy ending for Booty.
"It's awesome," he said. "I get to play in two Rose Bowls, and I don't know who wouldn't be happy with that. We had a lot to overcome this season. We had a lot of injuries, we lost a couple tough games. That's the kind of adversity that can destroy a team. We kept battling, which shows you the character we have on this football team."
Booty's own personal character exam began in Week 5 against Stanford, when he broke the tip of his middle finger on his right throwing hand in the first half.
Instead of retreating to the sidelines, he stayed in the game, threw four interceptions, and saw USC lose to the 40-point underdog Cardinal, 24-23.
"If I had to do it all over again, I'd still want to stay in the game," he said. "It's so difficult to stand on the sidelines and not be out there with your guys."
During and after the game at the Coliseum, Booty heard the boos from the home fans. He said he deserved it, too.
"I did throw those four interceptions," he said.
Booty sat out the next three games — against Arizona, Notre Dame and Oregon — before returning for the final four regular-season games.
Gone was any chance at the Heisman Trophy. Gone was USC's opportunity to play for a national championship.
But Booty starred down the stretch, sparking four successive wins and finishing the regular-season with 2,106 yards and 20 touchdowns, while completing 190 of 303 pass attempts.
By finishing strong, he exhibited one key attribute he learned at USC.
"Patience," he said. "Believe in yourself, never give up and good things can happen."
Unlike more glamorous predecessors Palmer and Leinart, Booty is a quiet, low-key leader who mostly sidesteps the limelight off the football field.
"I'm not much into the Hollywood scene or anything like that," he said. "I go out. I do go to clubs once in a while, but it's always drive home and good night."
He concedes that he takes a business-like approach to football.
"I think it's a matter of preparation and execution," he said. "I think if you look at the guys at the next level, there aren't a lot of rah-rah types up there. I believe in working hard and being prepared. That's what wins football games."
In true Booty fashion, he's not looking for a glitzy game in the Rose Bowl.
In the 32-18 victory over Michigan in the 2007 Rose Bowl, Booty completed 27 of 45 throws for 391 yards and four touchdowns.
On Tuesday, he said he cares only about a win.
"It's just an unbelievable feeling to walk off the Rose Bowl field after winning the game," he said. "You feel so good for all your teammates. That's what I want this year. I don't care if I hand the ball off every play. I just want to win."

The City of Rock Hill narrowed its search for a new Police Chief to three internal candidates, and then Tuesday morning Chris Watts took the Oath of Office.
Captain Chris Watt, Captain Steven Parker, and Lieutenant Brad Redfearn were the finalists out of more than 100 applications.
Chief Chris Watts is now the 21st Chief in Rock Hill's history, and he's the first in-house candidate in 35 years.
Watts joined the Department in 1988 and received his Associate's Degree from USCL in Criminal Justice. He is currently pursuing his Bachelor's Degree from Anderson University. He expects to complete it this year.
Mayor Doug Echols told CN2 News why Watts was the right choice, "this is someone who's come up through the ranks and who is very much ingrained.. a part of the Rock Hill Police Department."
Watts said he wants to build stronger community relations and improve the public trust.
Chief Watts will oversee 140 officers. He takes over for John Gregory who retired in December. During the search for the new Rock Hill Police Chief, the City worked with the International Association of Chiefs of Police, hosted forums with Police Department employees, hosted two public forums, and conducted an extensive public survey process. Interviews were then conducted before the finalists were named.

WIMMERA cyclists Mark O'Brien and Sam Witmitz will be going head-to-head for different teams in the 2014 Jayco Herald Sun Tour starting on Wednesday night in Melbourne.
O'Brien will represent Avanti Racing Team and Witmitz Team Budget Forklifts, in the 61st edition of the 16-team, four-stage event, which finishes on Sunday.
The tour kicks off with a 2.5-kilometre prologue beginning at Birrarung Marr on Wednesday night, with cyclists then to travel through regional Victorian locations including Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Nagambie and Arthurs Seat as part of the competition.
After making his Tour Down Under debut in South Australia and recording a seventh-placed finish in the Road National Championships men's road race in Ballarat last month, O'Brien is confident he can compete for the leader's jersey.
"There's obviously a lot of classy riders, but if everything falls our way there's probably two of our team who can win it," he said.
"Realistically, my goal is to come away with a stage win, which will hopefully lead to a good result overall.
"In the Tour Down Under I struggled a bit to get in the right position at the right time, but ideally I'll show my form again here."
Witmitz – who will captain his team in the tour – believes team-mates Timothy Roe and Michael Vink are good chances to win.
"Basically we go in each day with a race strategy, but you have to be adaptable – my role will be to make plans on the go, look after the guys and make sure we're on the same page," he said.
"We're a very good chance with those two guys, they're world class riders and both in really good form – it's a course that will suit both of them."
Witmitz – who debuted in last year's event with the SASI Cycling team alongside O'Brien and under former Horsham coach Tim Decker – said he was excited and well-prepared after a frustrating ride in the Road National Championships elite criterium in Ballarat last month.
"I've had a pretty good preparation for the tour with good racing in January and February, and had a few weeks in Adelaide training and watching Marko," he said.
"Ballarat was pretty frustrating for me. It was all looking good and I was in a good position on the final lap but got caught up in a crash – to get 99 per cent done and have that bit of bad luck wasn't ideal.
"I'm excited for this year, racing for my own team in the Herald Sun Tour is something I'm really passionate about doing."
O'Brien – who made his Tour debut in 2006 – said he hoped to make use of his knowledge of various stages.
"Arthurs Seat I've done a few times, and Ballarat to Bendigo I've done a few times before, so I'm pretty confident there," he said.
"It's quite a tough one with Mount Alexander, and knowing that climb perhaps I'll look for a bit of an opportunity there."
O'Brien said 2014 Road Nationals road race winner and Tour Down Under winner Simon Gerrans was an obvious favourite in a strong field of cyclists.
"Gerrans is the obvious choice and he's got a strong team, so you wouldn't discount any of them, but there's so many good riders who on their best day could be a chance," he said.
While there is a rivalry between O'Brien and Witmitz's teams, the former team-mates both agreed there would be a friendly competition between the two of them at Wednesday night's individual time-trial, which Witmitz jokingly referred to as the 'Wimmera Cup'.
"He'll be confident for that, but I'm pretty confident for the rest of the tour," O'Brien said.
"I'm pretty confident that I'm going to roll him," Witmitz said.

When we moved the former Petersen Publishing Co. staff to Peoria, Ill., from Los Angeles a few years back, there was much grumbling about the need to get a Firearms Owner's Identification (FOID) Card. I found that funny coming from guys who had been dealing with a two-week waiting period to buy any gun, an assault weapon ban and the certainty that other repressive measures were around the corner in California.
While I'd prefer not to need a FOID card, I had to remind the newcomers that the system, unique in the country, was the successful means of derailing a full registration regime for all firearms in 1968. In normal times, getting a FOID is no big deal and takes just a couple weeks.
These, of course, are not normal times, and the wait for a FOID card has grown to several weeks. The good side of that is the huge demand for the cards demonstrates the absurdity of the antis' claim that the same six guys are buying all the guns. FOID holders have increased by almost a third—from 1.2 milllion to 1.6 million—in the last few years. The state's population was estimated at 12.88 million in 2012.
The recent passage of concealed carry legislation has only lengthened the line, which stands at almost 50,000. State police expect more than 400,000 applications for concealed carry permits, which will clog the pipeline even more.
Gun banners can niggle about the percentage of the population that holds a FOID card—many casual gun owners do not—but they can't pretend that gun ownership is shrinking. It's growing—an important fact for politicians to remember.

Situated 36Km from Perth CBD.
The name originates from the railway station, established during the construction of the Midland Railway in the 1890s and named after an adjacent watercourse, Bull's Brook. The watercourse may have been named after Lt Henry Bull who was granted Swan Location 1 about 8km south on the 15th May, 1831. Another possibility is that the watercourse was named after Richard ("Bull") Jones, one of Henry Bull's servants, who resided in the region for many years.

Being involved with Social Media quite a long time especially with Facebook and I think best thing is to get genuine and real likes on your Facebook Pages helps to maintain stability and good return benefits. Although software or ad on Facebook Pages works but they only rest to the just likes not real sale/purchase game. Go for regular updates on you site daily that meets to the needs of general customers/users.
I have used such software like youlikehits and many more others but after getting like I search some people profiles and shocked to see that most profiles are fake and are not created to get facebook likes, so waste of time and money as well by using such software. Instead use manual postings like go to relevant forums and post and encourage people to like your fan page.
Using any auto software to gain followers/fans is useless, because those fans/followers are NOT going to be interested in anything you are promoting, so having 100,000 fans could be useless if they are BOTS ;)
How about buy like at fiverr.com ?
I think part of what is going unexpressed here is the underlying notion that a jump in FB likes or Twitter followers can result in favor by the search engines, particularly G.
Aside from 'software' - what about the directories, such as twellow? For people seeking out...
Thanks everyone for your very helpful information. It's a very interesting space.
We are just setting up our social media stuff for our software start up that uses a Free Smartphone App to save people power and money and improve fire and electrical safety around the globe. It's becoming clear to me that we must manage the social media our selves to get the best result from this level of interaction with our customers. That's fine and I agree with it- we would like some advice on the best way to get the FB, Twitter, YouTube, our website, blog feeds etc all linked up and humming along together- feeding off each other through our social media networks and community forums etc.
Any thoughts anyone?
There are lot of tools available to increase the Twitter followers like http://wefollow.com/ and so on. You can find out all that tools by using the search engines. One of the natural way to increase the Twitter followers is to follow the people who is related to your niche and then share some useful tweets. They will start automatically following you.
There may be some software in market for FB likes & Twitter followers.
But you should do all social medial work manually.
socialize-it.org is a web tool to get more likes, followers for different famous social sites.
i heard that, some website provide facebook page like. may be like are real or fake whatever... but is this useful technique to increase page like. is any one know such types of sites then please share it. thanks.
I think now you can't do in any software to collect likes from social media. If you do it regularly then your account may be suspended as I have got penalized.
This post is becoming repetitive at the very least. If you need information about Facebook likes, please read through it.

Nanotechnology helps North Carolina's racing, trucking industries run more smoothly
North Carolina Board of Science and Technology
July 17, 2009
North Carolina, Nanotechnology, and
. At first glance, it seems like the only thing these three words have in common is their first letter. But in North Carolina, innovation is playing a key part in helping race cars run more efficiently.
"From relatively humble beginnings, North Carolina has grown into a recognized global leader in racing technology and innovation," says Derek Chen, director of Motorsports Development at the North Carolina Department of Commerce. "The Tar Heel state is fortunate to have a concentration of top race teams, suppliers and R&D facilities working collaboratively to create world-class products," he adds.
One such innovative company, High Performance Coatings, owned by nCoat Inc., is using nanotechnology – the science of engineering very small particles – to make faster, more fuel efficient race cars. Paul Clayson, the CEO of nCoat Inc., located in Whitsett, North Carolina, spoke about how his company is using nanotechnology to benefit North Carolina motor sports and trucking industries.
Mr. Clayson explained that nCoat provides both interior and exterior nanotechnology-based protective coatings for several industries including automotive, racing, diesel, and marine applications. These special coatings are spray-painted on to coat racecar engine parts. Examples of products his company makes are "Performance Engine Coatings" which reduce friction and increase horsepower and "Appearance Coatings" which protect parts that are exposed to corrosive agents while still maintaining an attractive appearance.
According to Clayson, "the technology used by High Performance Coatings has made significant improvements, particularly in regards to emissions and fuel efficiency for North Carolina's robust diesel trucking and racing industries."
With new technological developments in the racing industry, new problems have emerged. When engine parts overheat, as often happens in racing conditions, the parts experience greater wear and tear. This increased corrosion and abrasion eventually reduces fuel efficiency and results in a faster degradation of automotive materials.
In NASCAR racing, performance is the top priority. Clayson said "Our innovative technologies use nanotech to coat pistons, reduce friction and allow for more efficiency, preventing engine degradation. This helps to keep heat down which allows for greater horsepower."
High Performance Coatings makes two types of engine coatings designed especially for the racing industry,HiPerCoatTMand HiPerCoat Extreme™. According to the company's website, both coatings "reduce underhood temperatures and increase the speed of exhaust flow through the headers and exhaust system." The heat management of these coatings protects both cars and drivers while helping the car to run more efficiently.
Not only has nanotechnology helped the NASCAR industry in North Carolina, it has also been useful in other industries as well, particularly in North Carolina's trucking industry.
"Our state is certainly bolstered when innovations in racing technologies are applied to other notable North Carolina strengths including the aerospace, medical and automotive industries," said Derek Chen.
High Performance Coatings provides nanotech coatings to protect truck engines from corrosion particulates that can cause extensive damage. Clayson's company makes coatings for both interior and exterior parts of diesel engines that have been proven to reduce engine damage from thermal fatigue and oxidation.
A recent challenge for the trucking industry is to meet new, stricter, federal
Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) clean air standards designed to reduce pollution. According to the EPA website, these new standards "will reduce the sulfur content of highway diesel fuel from its current level of 500 parts per million to 15 parts per million – a 97 percent reduction." These standards will be phased in gradually until 2010. The trucking industry has to innovate in order to meet these new standards, and cost-effective, feasible solutions are needed to reduce emissions from high acidic and heat conditions.
"Our coatings provide an inexpensive way to modify existing engine parts to meet these new standards instead of purchasing new parts," adds Clayson.
In addition to upgrading older trucks, High Performance Coatings' technology also provides improved performance in newer trucks.
The new generation of diesel trucks is equipped with turbocharged engines, which use air from the engine exhaust flow to spin a turbine, which in turn spins an air pump. On one hand, this reduces exhaust emissions, which helps to meet the new EPA standards. On the other hand, since the air pump is hooked up to the exhaust, the temperatures in the turbine are very high, increasing engine corrosion. This is where High Performance Coatings' products come in. "We can use our nanotech coatings to protect the engine from the increased heat and corrosion while increasing durability and efficiency and decreasing pollution emissions," says Clayson.
High Performance Coatings has brought nanotechnology to two of North Carolina's strongest industries. Their coatings have been proven to protect engines, reduce pollution, and promote fuel efficiency, among many other great benefits. This technology will become essential to the automotive industry as emissions standards are strengthened and improved engine and fuel efficiency become important considerations to everyday Americans.

Softball Comes From Behind to Beat Nova Southeastern
Sunday, February 18, 2007
Requires Adobe Flash
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., - The Florida Gulf Coast University softball team rallied to defeat Nova Southeastern 3-2 in the Barry Invitational. Nova Southeastern got on the board in the first inning, taking a 1-0 lead off an unearned run. The Sharks added a second run in the fifth inning taking a 2-0 lead. The Eagles answered with a run in the sixth as Carmen Paez (Belle Glade, Fla.) led off with a single. Natasha Johnson (Fort Pierce, Fla.) doubled to bring home Paez and get the Eagles on the scoreboard and setting up a dramatic finish. With one out, Alisha Boyd (Naples, Fla.) drew a walk and Rachel Homan (Vero Beach, Fla.) hit a homerun to give the Eagles a 3-2 lead. The Eagles allowed a runner to reach the bases after an error in the bottom of the seventh, but were able to work around the error and claim a 3-2 win. Dana Frantz (Brighton, Mich.) picked up the win for the Eagles, tossing 7.0 innings while allowing four hits and a pair of runs, only one of which was earned. Homan's only hit was the game-winning homer, as she went 1-for-3. The Eagles were able to put seven hits on the board. The Eagles will be in action again on Friday when they compete in the Eckerd College Triton Spring Invitational.

The Sikhism code of conduct is known as Sikh Reht Maryada (SRM) and outlines the mandates of daily living for every Sikh as well as requirements for the initiated. The code of conduct defines who is a Sikh and offers guidance for the Sikh in personal and public life. The code of conduct stipulates principles and mandates, according to the teachings of Sikhism's 10 gurus and includes protocol guidelines for worship, care of the Guru Granth Sahib and reading of scriptures, important life events, ceremonies, practices, rituals, baptism and initiation requirements, prohibitions and penance.
Code of Conduct & Conventions Document
The Sikh code of conduct outlined in the document Sikh Reht Maryada, (SRM), is based on historical mandates and the decrees established by the teachings of Sikhism's ten gurus and baptism bequeathed by Tenth Guru Gobind Singh:
Five Defining Essentials of Sikhism
A Sikh may be born into a family who practices Sikhs or may convert to the Sikh faith. Any one is welcome to become a Sikh. The code of conduct defines a Sikh as one who believes in:
The Three Pillars of Sikh Principle
The code of conduct outlines three principles developed and established by the ten gurus. These three pillars form the foundation of Sikh living:
- Personal daily worship routine:
Early Morning Meditation:
- Honest Earnings
- Community Service:
Gurdwara Worship Protocol and Etiquette
The code of conduct includes the etiquette and protocol for worship in the gurdwara which houses the Guru Granth Sahib, Sikhism's Holy Scripture. It is necessary to remove shoes and cover the head before entering any gurdwara. Smoking and alcoholic beverages are not allowed on the premises. Gurdwara worship service includes singing traditional hymns, prayer and reading scripture:
- What You Need to Know Before You Visit the Gurdwara
- Hymns of Immortal Nectar
- Top Ten Sikh Beliefs
- Sikh Congregation
