JERUSALEM, Israel -- The screams of a 9-year-old girl shot by a Palestinian terrorist in her back yard Saturday evening averted a worse disaster, her father said Sunday morning.
The attack took place in the Jewish community of Psagot, near Ramallah, the seat of the Palestinian Authority government. Israeli security forces ordered residents to remain inside overnight as they searched the community and surrounding area.
"The terrorist was well prepared and planned to come into our house, but her screams surprised him," her father told Israel Radio Sunday morning.
He called the attack "the most frightening thing that can happen to a family."
Nine-year-old Noam Glick never lost consciousness and was able to describe her assailant as a masked Arab.
"It's the most frightening thing that can happen to a family -- that a terrorist enters the family home," her father said.
The Israel Defense Forces searched the nearby Arab town of al-Bireh, but have not yet found the suspect.
On Sunday morning, residents resumed their normal routines, though security forces from the Binyamin Regional Council escorted children to school.
Shaare Zedek physician Dr. Daniel Fink told the Israeli daily Ma'ariv her survival "is a miracle." From her wounds -- a deep gash at the base of her neck and upper chest, it's apparent her attacker meant to kill her.
Several Israeli Knesset members called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end negotiations with the Palestinian Authority.

Birth to 5: Growth, Development, and Adoption
A Parent's Role for Any Age
Becoming aware of typical developmental milestones is a start for how parents can maximize their children's potential for success throughout life. Knowing when to be concerned about their development and how to look for outside services helps too. Be open to early evaluation and intervention. It does get harder at the 3-to-5 age level to access services. Call SPARK if you have any questions about evaluation.
A parent's role doesn't have to be overwhelming: You are a supporter, comforter, holder, and information provider. Begin telling your children their adoption story in a meaningful way from the time they come home. The details and style can grow along with their interest and emotional maturity. Tune into where they are developmentally; watch how they play out their stories. Be there for them. You are their most precious and wonderful toy.
For more information on child development or to get help coordinating evaluations and services, call Jamila Cleary, 212-360-0259, or e-mail email@example.com.

Contemporary English artist Damien Hirst (born June 7, 1965) is the most prominent of the group known as the Young British Artists (YBA).
Hirst first attended Leeds College of Art and Design and then London University's Goldsmiths College. While a student there he worked in a mortuary, which had a lasting impact on his artwork. Immortalizing dead animals in formaldehyde would later bring him much public attention.
While a second-year student at Goldsmiths, Hirst curated the "Freeze" exhibition in 1988 that showcased his own work and that of fellow students. The adman and art collector Charles Saatchi visited the show and subsequently offered to support Hirst's work. Saatchi became a benefactor of many of the YBA.
In 1991, Hirst created his defining work "The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living." The piece comprised a 4-meter-long tiger shark preserved in a vitrine of formaldehyde. The work proved a sensation. Saatchi bought it for £50,000.
Hirst dominated the art scene in Britain throughout the 1990s. He participated in the 1993 Venice Biennale with "Mother and Child Divided," a cow and a calf cut into sections and presented in four separate vitrines. In 1995, he won the Turner Prize for "Third Installation of Pharmacy."
His close professional relationship with Saatchi ended acrimoniously in 2003. However, when Saatchi sold the preserved shark in 2004 for $12 million, it made Hirst the second most expensive living artist after Jasper Johns. In 2007, "Lullaby Spring" sold for £9.65 million at Sotheby's London, taking Hirst past Johns' record.
Besides installations dealing with death, Hirst is known for his spot paintings, mostly made by assistants who paint rows of uniform but variously colored circles. Butterflies arranged in paint are another Hirst trope.
In 2008, Hirst bypassed gallery representation to auction his work directly to the public at Sotheby's London. Despite misgivings that the artist might be damaging his market, "Beautiful Inside My Head Forever" raised $198 million.
Recently, Hirst has returned to painting. London's Wallace Collection showed "Blue Paintings" in 2009, leaving critics divided. "People are not shocked by animals in formaldehyde anymore, but they are shocked that you are picking up a brush and a canvas and going backwards," Hirst told the BBC.

Started 27 games over previous 3 seasons for Browns Brad Biggs
The Detroit Lions, who are constantly shuffling their secondary, have found a new piece to add to the mix.
They claimed cornerback Brandon McDonald off waivers today from the Arizona Cardinals, according to Tom "Killer" Kowalski of MLive.com.
McDonald, who was let go by the Cleveland Browns in early September, had been in Arizona since then and appeared in two games for the Cardinals. McDonald started 27 games over the previous three seasons for the Browns, and was a fifth-round draft pick in 2007 from Memphis.
It's not known yet what move the Lions will make to create a roster spot for McDonald.

The Yoruba Orisha Part 2 (Part 1)
An Orisha (also spelled Orisa or Orixa) is a spirit or deity that reflects one of the manifestations of Olodumare (God) in the Yoruba religious system. (Olodumare is also known by various other names includ
ing Olorun, Eledumare, Eleda and
Olofin-Orun). This religion has found its way throughout the world and is now expressed in practices as varied as Candomblé, Lucumí/Santería, Shango in Trinidad, Anago and Oyotunji, as well as in some aspects of Umbanda, Winti, Obeah, Vodun and a host of others.
These varieties or spiritual lineages are practiced throughout areas of Nigeria, the Republic of Benin, Togo, Brazil, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, the United States, Uruguay and Venezuela among others. As interest in Yoruba religion system grows, Orisha communities and lineages can be found in parts of Europe and Asia as well. While estimates may vary, some scholars believe that there could be more than 150 million adherents of this spiritual tradition worldwide.
(Please note some of the Orisha have male/female personifications)

Bull Sperm
Definition: Bull Sperm
Believe it or not, bull sperm (yes, bull semen) is becoming a cult hair treatment at a swank UK salon. The solution combines Angus bull semen and a plant root called katera. Both ingredients are protein packed and help penetrate and condition the hair shaft. Supposedly it's deeply nourishing and revitalizing as it has earned a nickname "Viagra for the hair."
A treatment costs just over $100 and takes about 45 minutes. Hair is shampooed, the treatment is applied, and then you are put under a steamer. And from what I hear, the semen is kept in a refrigerator so it stays cold and fresh. There certainly are great measures people have taken for shiny, healthy hair, but bull semen is a little much for me. Would you try something like this if it makes its way across the pond?

USDA Hands Out $310 Million For Rural Broadband
Projects extend broadband's reach across 14 new communities
Karl Bode
08:52AM Tuesday Jan 26 2010
The Agriculture Department this week handed out
an additional $310 million in stimulus money
to help bring broadband service to 14 rural communities. The funding is the latest round in an $7.2 billion effort to improve broadband coverage. According to the USDA, the funding round includes an $88.1 million grant aimed at connecting 65 towns and villages in southwestern Alaska to the Internet, a $19.1 million grant and loan to a Missouri electric cooperative that's building a 5,000 home FTTH network, $3.9 million grant to a unit of TDS Telecommunications to extend DSL service in Missouri, and a $376,000 grant and loan to an Iowa telco that's building a WiMax network to reach rural areas.

The point is the money is already allocated thus his point is moot and has nothing to do with the topic. If he wants to rant about the deficit there are baords for that. This is not one of them. He needs to stay on topic.

Re: more money
I certainly think that whether or not these funds are worth increasing the deficit is relevant to the topic at hand. Since the impact affects broadband afford-ability for everyone.
On the other hand, $310 million is kinda small potatoes in terms of the overall budget. I'm still a bit amused that USDA is the one handing out these funds but I guess they had to find someone.

Since the money is ALREADY ALLOCATED there is no way to stop spending the money. What part of that is too hard to comprehend? So yes the point is moot. Now if you want to make an argument about FUTURE spending( meaning after the initial $7.2 billion runs out ) THEN it's on topic. Since this money is part of the $7.2 billion ALREDAY ALLOCATED no it's not on topic.

Yes $310 million is like having $10,000 and giving a $1 to someone. That being said this money as I have aready stated, is part of the $7.2 billion already allocated in the budget for this year. This is not extra money we are spending.

Well, Congress has the ability to rescind appropriation authority at any time as far as I know. OMB can also yank the apportionment authority. Or USDA could elect not to spend the money (although I don't know why they would do that ... usually that only happens for some legal reason like them not having the statutory authority to spend and they could just ask Congress to fix that). There are numerous ways to stop spending. Just because money has approved for spending doesn't mean it has to be spent. Although I don't think that was your point.
If your argument is that we should be focused on the outyear spending, I agree that is much easier to change. And I think this and all of the other threads in response to this topic are really dancing around the issue of "should the US government support broadband deployment in this fashion"?
Since we're on this site, I would gather a large number of folks answering "yes" to the should, and then a massive debate about "in this fashion". Particularly strong "yes" responses from those presently without broadband, which frankly, I understand.
I think the worry of many is that this money will simply be squandered and not give any more folks broadband. People want results and well, that has been a challenge for the telecom industry.
And yes, I'd like a USDA certified Organic cable modem

I think there was a lot of discussion about how this initial money was only the beginning of many more expenditures to expand broadband. If Obama's pronouncement of 3 yrs of stand still and some cutbacks is true, the chances of future broadband spending becomes iffy at best.

You sound like a government worker and not a business person. This is the problem with the government! NO MONEY, you stop spending, even if money is allocated.

Broadband is not an entitlement. And where does it end? I don't have a water park in my area, perhaps Joe Taxpayer can build me one. My neighbor doesn't have a motocross track near him, perhaps Joe Taxpayer should build him one.
Enough of spending everyone else's money. If broadband is essential for someone they should have thought about that before they moved to the location they did.
To all the babies with their hands out. Adults when choosing a place to live consider many things; proximity to their job, school, crime...if broadband is essential it should have been on the list and it is not the job of Joe Taxpayer to give it to them. If they want BB so badly, let them go to their town council and get a local bond measure on the ballot.
Joe Taxpayer is not an ATM to be throttled for every luxury desired. Joe Taxpayer is not an ATM to backfill the irresponsible spending of local and State governments (like the disaster that is California).
People are going to have to start paying their own way for a change before the nation is insolvent. We have WAY biggest problems then getting someone in a rural area low latency broadband like this $1.3T yearly deficit.

Clearly you live in a large area that is fortunate to have a cable provider, and you can't help but think for yourself rather than others. You already have broadband, now let's get it to the rural areas too.
I have to struggle to get internet. At my house, EVDO coverage (Millenicom) is spotty at best and I have to use a modified coffee can with a hole in the bottom for the USB stick to get a reasonable signal. What do you have to do, use a box plugged into a cable?
If I could get, at the very least, bottom-tier DSL, my life would be so much easier. No more nudging the cantenna a degree or two facing the window to get service back.

People shouldn't move next to a freeway and then complain about the noise. If you have a problem with noise, you should have chosen better. It is not the job of Joe Taxpayer to fix your problems, particularly for non-essential services like low latency broadband.

How about the USA cut all foreign aid? Hmmm, now that's a thought.
Imagine what the USA could do with the billions they give to Israel each year? Egypt gets about 2 billion and so on. Sickening.
If America focused on America, they could fund huge R&D to the tune of the Manhattan Project to cure cancer, develop Fusion, have health care, state paid college, fiber to farmers silos and much more and that is no joke.
It's time to collect on the "loans" the US has issued to all of these welfare nations for decades!
RANT complete!
2010-Jan-27 5:05 am: ·
Re: more money
Okay, you got back the $24B we spend in foreign aid. The deficit this year is $1,300B. And after raising discretionary spending 20%+ in the first year, Obama wants to lock in that new high rate as the new baseline with this so-called spending freeze.
Good luck. Congress has zero intention of getting the deficits back to where they were in 2006 ($161B) when the politburo took over, forget about an actual surplus that could be used for projects such as this.

Only thing is, other countries are actually going to do something about it.. I feel that we are just throwing green backs at dead horse's... My teleco provider and only option for provider is ATT. And from what i've gathered, they nor comcast has asked for any stimulas buildout funds in my area.... So, being my providers just simply refuse to upgrade my area and will FIGHT anybody else that tries to provide service in my area i'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.

T1 != reliability
Don't let the T1 hype fool you. I've had a T1 line for 3 years now and it's been down more times than my DSL did where I used to live. If you think about it it makes sense, since the last mile is the problem and it runs both DSL and T1 service.

I second that. I have a T1 for about $340 after taxes. It has gone down 3-4 times, and when it goes down it is for usually a day or two.

DSL service
"$3.9 million grant to a unit of TDS Telecommunications to extend DSL service in Missouri"
Why in the hell are you going to pump money into DSL for a rural area? DSL is a distance factored technology. In a rural location, you're likely to have 10 houses on the 3 mile stretch of an ADSL signal. Let alone the fact that some farm houses are a good .25-.5 of a mile (if not more) off the road anyway. FTTH or WiMax is the way to go.

Re: DSL service
FTTH going to cost a arm and a leg and wimax only goes like 3-4 miles top. Copper is almost everywhere and they just need to put extends that can extend the signal further which is pretty cheap. let the milking begin.

POTS copper is nearly obsolete and loses capacity quickly beyond a half mile. In rural areas things like remote central offices or terminals and pair bonding aren't cheap. A single fiber optic line can extend 12 miles at full capacity before it needs an active repeater. As for WiMax if you don't mind disappointing speeds it can work up to 30 miles or with an outdoor directional antenna with a clear line of sight to a tower that 3-4 miles you speak of can be doubled.

Re: DSL service
I'm speaking from experience here. I live in a rural community and we had a cable company purchase our old out-dated cable system. In order to upgrade our system, it was cheaper for them to provide FTTH rather than trying to build a HFC network and have to use so many amps. If you're going to build a new infrastructure, I don't think they're looking for a "mid-term" investment.

Duramax08 uses WiMAX and is disappointed with it. Better than the alternatives but...
The problem with fiber is construction costs. If your area has a rural telco they likely have enough copper in the area to do pair bonding. Use two pairs and, if you've got decent-quality lines you can get 3M down and 768k up without issue on a 21 kft loop.
Sure, it's not super fast VDSL but a reliable 1.5/512 or 3/768 connection is a godsend compared to the alternatives.

Duramax08, it's probably for a small town(s) that doesn't have DSL and / or for remote terminals. Sounds like a mid-term investment so I do agree with you that fiber would be better long term.

FTTH would be great but not that many people do offer it but if they want to invest into FTTH, go ahead, that would be awesome. DSL is a dying technology but you can think of it as a upgrade from dial up but within 5 years its going to be out of date (which it already is). Wimax is awesome but with the modems they offer with clear (the only wimax provider that I know of), You have to be within a 3 mile radius for a decent signal. If they offered a modem with a external antenna port, that would help out alot. being 3.47 miles from the tower with the modem point towards it direction, I get one bar with some drop outs.
So these are the options:
DSL if you want to be cheap but keeping a out of date technology alive.
FTTH if you want to have a longterm investment but paying a good amount of money upfront.
Wimax if you want to cover a decent size population with current modems.
just my opinion
Would like a landline but wireless will work for now.

Gifts of Jobs & Money From Insider "Haves" To Fellow "Haves"
This is basically the story of the Broadband Stimulus program. To the best of my knowledge, virtually every proposal that has gotten a green light (either through BTOP/RUS or the Broadband Mapping program) has been submitted by an established entity of some standing. Examples include: State governments that plan to use current staff to do the work, well-funded entities like Connected Nation, and public-private partnerships between well-known organizations.
Where are the small businesses, the organizations that are not part of that cozy inner circle consisting of the 'usual suspects'? Where are those that lack the resources to pay DC lobbyists to argue their cause(s)? Where are those the decision makers hadn't ever heard of?
Among the primary goals of the BTOP/BIP programs, per the Federal Register, is the creation of jobs. Where are they? I'm not seeing them. Thus, the whole thing is striking me as a not-at-all funny joke. Once again, I might add, the joke is on us.

No worries friend. You're not alone. Here in southeast Ohio, less than five miles from Cable, DSL, Fiber, 3G and nearly every other form of broadband (oh yeah, and on a main highway). Connect Ohio is a joke and we're probably never gonna get broadband aside from moving. Hughesnet is the best we can get for now.

DSL is such outdated technology, it should not even be considered because you can't get any range. It is like someone else said on here either LTE technology or some form of evdo is the only way to go just don't let verizon do it. They will try to put a 5 gig limit on it and it wont help nobody

Wired has the story of a single lawyer attending a boot camp to become a programmer, from there successfully landing a development gig.

Still, it is topical given the sustained and even renewed interest in what Edd Dumbill at O'Reilly calls democratized programming. Well, sort of, since the end goal isn't a lawyer who hacks but a hacker who formerly was a lawyer. Still, as an extreme case, it demonstrates that other models of literacy should be possible.

The social conservatives against it are arguing from a biblical point of view, while the gays are arguing from an economic point of view. It is a true political distraction and tool. The problem with gays not being able to marry is to much government interference in our personal property to begin with. Gays have to spend thousands of dollars creating trusts and wills for their belongings to go their loved ones in the case of death, etc. They pay higher taxes on income, can't take deductions..and so on. If the government wasn't involved in all of this from the get...then RP's argument of "keeping the gov't out of it" would be fine. However, as the way society is at the moment wiht the govt essentially owning us, there has to be some set of rules...which is bs.

John Meeks has a hard time thinking of anyone who met Hap Acee that didn't like the guy. Both avid fishermen, John and Hap shared a 25 year friendship that was rekindled each fall on the Salmon River. John remembers Hap as the kind of angler - the kind of person - who everyone loved and wanted to learn from. Especially when it came to fishing.
