DINWIDDIE, Va. - Results of round 1 eliminations in Top Fuel at the Hooters IHRA Drag Racing Series, 2nd annual ACDelco Nationals presented by Chevrolet:
Qua-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed-Rd-Qua-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed 5 Louie Allison 4.915 298.73 Q 4 Paul Romine 4.900 289.94 0.449 5.172 274.78 E1 *****WINNER***** 0.432 4.959 288.89
2:54 PM Right now there's a big, puffy cloud shading the track. It's 95
degrees, but only 39 percent relative humidity (it feels worse). Romine smoked the
tires in the time trial around noon today, Allison didn't make a run. Looks like
Romine's team learned from the time trial because his car was "soft and safe,"
smoothly down the groove and steadily pulling away from Allison.
Qua-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed-Rd-Qua-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed 6 Jack Ostrander 5.084 295.85 Q 3 Josh Starcher 4.825 300.60 0.523 5.244 247.75 E1 *****WINNER***** 0.538 5.192 246.62
Veteran versus rookie, and the rookie gets the win light. This one was close
all the way, Starcher opening a few hundredths of a second advantage early and then
holding it all the way to the line. Ostrander was closing on the top end, but it
looked like his engine gave up around the 1,000-foot marker. MOV: 0.0375 seconds
(approximately 14 feet).
Qua-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed-Rd-Qua-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed 8 Roger Dean 5.141 284.75 Q 1 Bruce Litton 4.747 308.43 0.533 7.826 108.30 E1 *****WINNER***** 0.530 4.946 283.31
Dean had dead cylinders on both sides of the engine and shook the tires. He
pedaled it, to no avail. Meanwhile, Litton pedaled it a couple of times and made
it work, getting the win light and lane choice against Romine in the
Qua-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed-Rd-Qua-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed 7 Donald Reed 5.105 232.87 Q 2 Clay Millican 4.818 299.66 0.543 15.194 69.17 E1 *****WINNER***** 0.508 5.022 274.61
Since his trouble-plagued outing here, Reed has shown 4.80s performance and
Millican's team could take nothing for granted here. Millican made a test run
earlier today, with a puff of smoke at 400 feet, Reed skipped the time trials.
Reed went up in smoke at the hit, while Millican made a soft launch (a 0.915
60-foot well off his usual short times) and sailed right down the middle of the
groove, earning lane choice against Starcher in the semifinals.

BENGHAZI, Libya - Seven Iranian relief workers who had been taken hostage by an armed group in July in the Libyan city of Benghazi were freed on Saturday, a Libyan security source and the Libyan Red Crescent Association said.The seven Iranian men arrived in Benghazi in late July as guests of the Libyan Red Crescent to help with relief work in the city. They were seized from their vehicle by an unknown armed group in the heart of Benghazi.Mohamed El-Misrati, spokesman for the Libyan Red Crescent, told Reuters: "With the cooperation of the local council in Benghazi, the seven relief workers were released. They are in good health and en route to Iran."The security source said they were released about midday. It was not immediately clear who freed them, or why now.Their abduction is one of several violent incidents that have rocked the birthplace of last year's revolt that toppled veteran ruler Muammar Gaddafi.

Islamic Center barbecue helps ease a difficult week
The Islamic Center of Eastside held its regularly scheduled open house and barbecue Saturday to get to know the neighbors and dispel myths about the religion. Members answered questions about the recent arrests of two suspected terrorists who are Muslims.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Confronting stereotypes is nothing new to Muslims at the Islamic Center of Eastside. It's the very reason they have an open house every few months — to invite in neighbors and "demystify" themselves.
Saturday's scheduled open house came just two days after two Muslim men were arrested in Seattle and accused of planning a terrorist attack on a Seattle military building. Disheartened but expecting questions, presenters at the Islamic Center in Bellevue worked up an extra PowerPoint slide to address terrorism.
"The stereotype is always there," said Bahiyya Hassan, adding that the arrests feel "external" to a congregation more focused on the day-to-day aspects of faith and community. "This was planned a month ago. It doesn't really matter, because we're just hoping we can talk about what Islam is actually about."
A short presentation at the open house reviewed the basic beliefs of Islam, followed by a frank and casual question-and-answer session that covered how Muslims fit prayer into their workday and why they wear hijabs on their heads.
"If I wake up with a bad hair day, actually, it doesn't matter," laughed Leslie Taylor, of Bellevue. "You're not going to know, because I can put this on."
The women met separately from the men in the upstairs of the mosque, chatting and eating barbecue sandwiches and kebabs.
While they find the media's focus on Muslim terrorists puzzling, Muslims at Saturday's event said they also know their faith is misunderstood.
They waited patiently Saturday while non-Muslims unfamiliar with the religion's terminology struggled to find the right way to ask questions. They tried to explain the deep sense of community they feel during prayers and described a God who is compassionate and gracious.
In one exchange, a Muslim woman described the ins and outs of the mosque's weekly prayer service to a visiting Presbyterian, and then asked the woman to describe her church's service.
Several of the visitors Saturday were from the Mormon church next door, which shares a parking lot with the mosque.
"I always like to learn about other cultures," said Bonnie Stowell, who said several Islamic women attended an event this spring at her church.
Some Muslims said they blamed themselves, in part, for the stereotypes about Islam that followed the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Perhaps they didn't do enough to get out into the community before then, they said.
"If you don't know each other, then this gives rise to all these misconceptions," said Zeeshan Baqir. "Nutty people can be any religion."
By hosting regular open houses, he hopes, the mosque can be a resource "whenever some kind of Muslim does something — a nutty Muslim — they can come straight to us and ask us what's going on, and ask us to clarify."

CAN Doha Milestones and Actions - short presentation
Submitted by Anonymous on

The planet is giving warning as to what dangerous climate change looks like – from historic droughts in East Africa, the United States and Mexico, to catastrophic floods in Brazil and China, and heat waves in Europe and elsewhere. The spectre of worldwide food shortages is growing. These warnings are being ignored by governments whose current lack of ambition has the world heading towards 3.5-6°C of warming and runaway climate catastrophe.
Agreements at Durban opened a window of opportunity for governments to put the world on a low emissions pathway, ready to leverage clean technologies for green development and create green jobs, investment and economic development, and to take important steps to build resilience to unavoidable impacts of climate change. However this window of opportunity is precarious. Fulfilling it will require governments to take decisive action at COP18/CMP8 in Doha. Short term (pre-2020) ambition must be urgently increased and a clear pathway mapped to negotiate a fair, ambitious and binding deal in 2015.
Essential elements to be concluded at Doha include:
At Doha an ADP workplan to increase short term ambition must be agreed:
Parties must learn from the disaster at Copenhagen by mapping out an ADP workplan at COP18 with clear timelines, milestones and deadlines for agreeing key issues on the pathway to negotiate a fair, ambitious and binding global agreement in 2015. Key milestones are mapped on the following page. The ADP workplan to 2015 must be:
After the disaster of Copenhagen, leaders do not have another 'trick up their sleeve'. Countries must deliver a fair, ambitious and binding deal by 2015 at the latest, putting in place the first steps in the pre 2020 ambition workplan in 2012, to ensure that we prevent catastrophic climate change. There is no atmospheric nor political space for a second failure.

Submitted by Secretariat on
We stand at the precipice of what could be the final stroke of the LCA at COP18 in Doha, and the conversation is turning ever more to the question of how political decisions for various elements of the LCA that have not been fully resolved will be handled post-COP18. ECO sees that the discussion on technology transfer, which cuts across mitigation and adaptation, provides a stark view of what's at stake if the LCA's closing is not properly done, in the light of the sometimes yawning gap between the understandings of developed and the developing countries.
If you mark the IPCC Assessment Report 1 (1990) as the starting point, the discussion on technology transfer has been ongoing for more than two decades. That's a lot of work to sit idle if the Technology Mechanism suddenly faced a lack of support, and a staggering missed opportunity to close the mitigation gap and address the growing need for climate adaptation.
As it now stands, the Technology Mechanism lacks full funding even on a short-term basis, its governance and reporting structure are incomplete, its linkages with other bodies inside the Convention are hampered by the chicken/egg dilemma, its cross-cutting support for NAMAs and NAPAs/NAPs is uncertain and ill-defined, and the conversation on what is likely the most political decision of all – how priorities are to be set within the TEC and CTCN – has barely been broached, if at all. Undoubtedly, some of these issues will be addressed and hopefully resolved in Doha, but some of them have little or no hope of finding true resolution in that timeframe, and some are likely to require ongoing political guidance.
As for funding, which must stand above all other issues in terms of a critical path forward, the organisation requested by COP17 to financially support the early operations of the CTCN failed to be chosen, and CTCN support disappeared with the nomination.
So how do we avoid leaving the CTCN – the technology mechanism's "boots on the ground" – up in the air?
As the shaman of Pride Rock, Rafiki, says: "It is time." Let's get those boots grounded with at least five years of interim public funding and let's go kick some adaptation and mitigation bootie! Oh, and by the way, maybe we might also find a concrete way to ensure appropriate follow-up care for all the outstanding technology transfer and other LCA issues that risk being stranded?

Legendary steampunk computer 'should be built' - programmer
Ten thousand towers...
... the cyclonic hum of a trillion twisting gears, all air gone earthquake-dark in a mist of oil, in the fractioned heat of intermeshing wheels. Black seamless pavements, uncounted tributary rivulets for the frantic travels of the punched-out lace of data, the ghosts of history loosed in this hot shining necropolis. Paper-thin faces billow like sails, twisting, yawning, tumbling through the empty streets, human faces that are borrowed masks, and lenses for a peering Eye.

Pentagon out to 'destroy' Wikileaks, founder says
@Ian Michael Gumby
No, you are the one who has missed my point.
You brought in the political "left" and "right" which are completely irrelevant to this story and then tried to stop anyone from down-voting your post by implying that, if they did, they were "leftist leading simple thinking".
You may have had a reasonable point, but you blew it by using tactics like these.
@Ian Michael Gumby
Watch the right-winger try to dismiss anyone who disagrees with him as "leftist leading simple thinking" because obviously no right(!) thinking person would disagree...
Canada prostitution laws pulverised: politicians apoplectic
Bravo Canada!
It is high time that every country recognised that "Women's Rights" *INCLUDES* the right of a woman to decide *for herself* what she does with her body and to enjoy the same protections from violence and crime that everyone else does!
Ofcom imposes new rules on silent callers

"professional drivers"?
Getting paid to drive a taxi, white van, truck or anything else does *NOT* make someone a "professional driver"!
As you mention, those who think of themselves as "professional drivers" are often extremely *bad* drivers because they think they know it all and probably think they have right of way over everything else on the road too which makes them very dangerous.

Kindle users finally get to pay for games

Sex Party proposes new classification system for Oz
Ok, but...
Ok, it's good that ASP are challenging the nonsensical puritanical mores of their country, but I find it disappointing that they "express its opposition to violence in all its forms, " with the seeming implication that consensual (but extreme) BDSM videos are the same as non-consensual, violent sexual acts because they say "A category of Non Violent Erotica would include all sexually explicit material between consenting adults that is free from depictions of violence, sexual violence, sexualised violence, coercion, sexually assaultive language."
Perhaps they're trying a "small steps" technique to slowly push back the barriers without the sort of resistance that a "legalise it all" campaign could cause, but they seem to be risking codifying another set of barriers which would be harder to get rid of because "Well, the ASP lobbied for these laws!"
It's also disappointing that they cite "a 2005 Eros summary of all recent research studies into the effects of violent media on children" when they are talking about *adult* material designed for people who are obviously *not* children and should know the difference between right and wrong and consent and non-consent.
BTW I do have to question why it was necessary to include a quote (presumably for "balance") from Vivienne Pattson the director of soi-disant Mediawatch-UK.
This organisation is just the old Mary Whitehouse brigade under a new name trotting out the tired old rhetoric of "porn is wrong because it objectifies women" as if the women who take part in it (what about the men?) are, presumably, mentally or emotionally deficient and cannot understand for themselves what they are doing without Ms Pattson and friends telling them "no, we don't like this, so you shouldn't do it".
Mediawatch are not amenable to reason and, unlike Backlash, they have no interest in engaging in sensible discussion with anyone who disagrees with their position.
Daily Mail savages Data Protection Act over stolen dog

School caretaker jailed for fitting up colleague
Presumption of innocence...?
Not for the poor bastard who had his name spread all over the papers so the lynch mob started sharpening their scythes and lighting flaming torches.
This is just another example of why the accused should be allowed anonymity in cases like this. You can bet that even now he's been acquitted, there are still idiots who will be saying "well, there's no smoke without fire" (even if the fire was set by someone else...) and refusing to have anything to do with him.
@The Indomitable Gall
But it doesn't *matter* whether the guy is a paedophile or not, it's simply possessing (oh, sorry, isn't that "making", since he "made" the images by downloading them, didn't he?) which is enough to get you branded as a witch, err, sorry, paedophile...

We are definitely in the position of "Too many Chiefs" whose main job is to warm seats and shuffle lots of paperwork (usually in the form of "reports") to make it look as if they are indispensible which the poor bloody infantry (or equivalent) are trying to do more and more with less and less and new recruits are harder and harder to get because the resources are just not there to support them and train them to do the jobs that are desperately required.

ZoneAlarm slammed for scarewarey marketing

Parents back legal ban of violent vidgames sales to kids
Again you don't get it.
You ask "Why is it a good idea to allow shops to sell adult rated games to kids?" when what you should be asking is "Why is it a good idea to have a law forbidding shops to sell adult rated games to kids?" with the concommitant legal penalties etc that such a law would include.
And pardon me if I don't waste my time addressing your silly "murder should be legal" Straw Man argument.
You're right, you don't get it.
The point is that the ESA wants parents to be *responsible* for what their children do and buy and play, not the State or the retail industry.

It is not up to me to come up with a "better term" for "making" here, it's up to you to demonstrate that this is actually "making" something, a term which I think most people would generally accept to imply "creating an original work", ie in this case actually taking photographs of a child, which is clearly not what is happening.
@What would you call it?

Action gamers make better drivers, soldiers, surgeons
@Adam West
I notice you don't mention the *cars* which tailgate motorcyclists like me at a distance so close that I first thought there was something wrong with my top box when I looked in my mirrors, only then to realise that there was a 4x4 sitting about ten feet from my rear wheel!
Nor do you mention the classic SMIDSY (Sorry Mate, I Didn't See You) as a motorist pulls out of a junction because they don't see the motorbike coming.
The DFTs own research states "Of the total cases, 681 (38%) involve ROWVs [Right of Way Violations]. However, less than 20% of these involve a motorcyclist who rated as either fully or partly to blame for the accident."
"the most common failure of other drivers in motorcycle accidents is a failure in the continuity of their observation of the road scene. Over 65% of ROWV accidents where the motorcyclist is not regarded as to blame involve a driver who somehow fails to see a motorcyclist who should be in clear view, and, indeed, frequently is in view to witnesses or other road users in the area."
It concludes:
"The main conclusions of our research are as follows:
"• A way must be found of targeting the other parties who so frequently cause motorcycle collisions. Drivers have to be made aware of the numerous ways that they can fail to perceive a motorcycle in the typical ROWV accidents that are most frequently not the fault of the rider involved. Our results suggest that interventions should be focused on (but not exclusively confined to) older drivers."
So before you start slagging off bikers, I suggest you consider the log in your own eye!
Microsoft shields Russia's refuseniks from police harassment

Naturist club objects to erection of five storey tower block
I'm pretty sure it's a sex crime in the UK...
... to be in your back garden, naked, playing a game.
Actually it's not.
IANAL, but quoting the Sexual Offences Act 2003:
66 Exposure
(1)A person commits an offence if—
(a)he intentionally exposes his genitals, and
(b)he intends that someone will see them and be caused alarm or distress.
67 Voyeurism
(1)A person commits an offence if—
(a)for the purpose of obtaining sexual gratification, he observes another person doing a private act, and
(b)he knows that the other person does not consent to being observed for his sexual gratification.
So if someone is in a place where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy, they can be nude without problem, but if someone's peeping at them and getting their jollies from this then that person will be committing an offence.
If they can't get the development stopped, I suggest they invest in some Leylandii.
Burglars used social network status updates to select victims
There are always risks...
... many years ago some friends were burgled when they were on holiday. It turned out that the kid who delivered their newspaper was telling his father which people had cancelled their delivery for a couple of weeks whilst they were away...
Admittedly this isn't as daft as announcing it to world + dog on your all-too-public status page, though.
Is US prudishness ruining the internet?
You could delete the world "prudishness"...
... and still have a valid article.
Somehow the Yanks have got the idea that they "own the internet" and can dictate to everyone else what is or isn't acceptable content which is more than a little ironic given their First Amendment!
Of course, as with many others, what they really mean by "Freedom of Expression" is "Freedom to say or show things that *we* agree with".
Robots capable of 'deceiving humans' built by crazed boffins

All CO2-spewing kit now in existence is OK for the planet
"if you don't do something with it?"
I don't give a toss what you do with it, just do it *EFFICIENTLY*!
I stay out of the "Global Warming is Man Made", "No it isn't!", "Yes it is!" nonsense and just point out that if we start using that "great big puddle of oil" in a more efficient manner (instead of burning huge amounts in gas-guzzling 4x4s...) then we will, ipso facto, reduce the amount of CO2 and other gasses into the atmosphere *as well as* delaying the point at which those finite resources run out.
In other words, a win-win situation!
MP urges Parliament to reform FOI laws

Looks like Old Saint Nick has turned the North Pole into a very different kind of Christmas tree! This display features a 24" tall, soft tinsel-wrapped Santa Claus standing next to a 42" tall candy cane-striped starting line post. Both are lit from within by a total of 70 UL-approved lights (powered by 120V, 36" long cord), and the starting post has 10 bright LED lights that continuously count down to launch (powered by 3 AA batteries, not included). The LEDs are also on a timer that stays on for 6 hours, then off for 18. Some assembly required.

Though the brothers Wachowski completely lost me with installments two and there of their Matrix trilogy, I'll still contend that the original was one damned good action flick. Booth favorite K. Sparks clearly shares my opinion – the latest leak off his and Pajozo's forthcoming Soul Food mixtape, is inspired by a recent DVD viewing of the '99 blockbuster. Sci-fi influence aside, though, The One is more of the laid-back, retro-informed K. Sparks listeners in the Booth and beyond have come to know and love. Pajozo's lushly-sampled blend of strings, bells, and head-nodding percussion sets the mood for a chilled-out old-school jam, but K. Sparks' free-associated verses are pure lyrical fire: "I got bars like the state pen, snakeskin, take ten, hatin', lyrically I break men…" A banging appetizer that, as you might expect, rewards repeat spins, The One will doubtless leave Booth readers even hungrier for the musical feast Sparks and Pajozo will bring to the table on their new, collaborative mixtape, set to hit the 'net on Thanksgiving (this Thursday, Nov 26).

REXFORD, Kan. -- Three people have died in a multiple-vehicle crash in northwest Kansas. Six others are listed with possible injuries.
The crash happened around 2 p.m. Thursday on Highway 83 near Rexford, which is northeast of Colby. A Kansas Highway Patrol report shows six tractor-trailers and five passenger vehicles were involved in the pile-up.
Low visibility caused by high winds and blowing dust likely contributed to the crash, KHP spokesman Tod Hileman said.
The victims were identified early Friday as 51-year-old Leonard Scott Breeden of Colby; 57-year-old James Ocie Perrott of Perryton, Texas; and 66-year-old Jerold L. Lamb of Florissant, Colo.
Hileman said there were two other accidents around the same location, one involving two semi trucks that sent both drivers to the hospital, and one non-injury accident.

Apt613 Guide to getting a bike on the cheap.
Post by Dev Marr Picking your first bike (or simply a replacement bike) can be a daunting task. If I hadn't had help from a friend I wouldn't have known where to start. In fact, even if I had known where to start, having a friend come along to give a second opinion is always a good idea. Lets face it, bikes can be expensive. Even lower end 'Walmart' bikes can cost upwards of $200. If you're a full time student like myself and fall into the category that I... | Continue reading article

|Marquette administrator provides Celtics' motto
|Written by Admin
|Wednesday, 11 June 2008 22:49
Then, Rivers wanted to find out more about the teachings of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who spoke at the school in 2003.
Marquette administrator Stephanie Russell was happy to oblige the Boston Celtics coach - and current university trustee - during a lunch break from a board meeting last September. Little did she know that she would wind up giving Rivers a word that would become the motto for a team destined to contend for a championship: ubuntu.
``He was really excited about this word,'' Russell recalled Wednesday. ``We were kind of unpacking this word, 'What does this mean?' It really did not occur to me that it had anything to do with his own professional life or the team.''
Rivers made ubuntu, which roughly translates to ``I am, because we are'' in English, the Celtics' team motto this season. And it seems to be working: Boston made it to the NBA finals and holds a 2-1 series advantage over the Los Angeles Lakers despite losing Tuesday night.
Russell, Marquette's executive director for university mission and identity, became familiar with the concept of ubuntu (pronounced Ooh-BOON-too) during a speech Tutu gave at the school's 2003 ``spirit week'' celebration.
Tutu used it to express his vision of racial unity as South Africa continued its transition to a post-apartheid society, Russell said.
Rivers was riveted. He wrote down his e-mail address on a napkin and asked Russell to send him more information.
She did, then was surprised months later when a friend sent her a story from the Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper in which Rivers talked about how a word he heard from someone at Marquette had become the team's motto.
``It's a way of life and a way of being,'' Rivers said in a recent news conference. ``And I thought for this team, that was very, very important. I thought they needed something to remind them how important team and sacrifice is.''
Rivers said the message was particularly poignant this year, as he tried to manage the egos of the team's so-called ``big three'' stars: Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen.
``A person is a person through other people,'' Rivers said. ``I thought for the Big Three, that part of ubuntu was as important as any. Because as good as you are, you can only be great or get what you want through other people.''
It all came as a surprise to Russell, who attended Marquette with Rivers in the 1980s but only met him a few times.
``I remember him as being just a very kind, unpretentious, generous person,'' Russell said. ``So it doesn't surprise me that he takes something like this and shares it in such a way that it makes a difference for a much bigger group of people. It was just a really great surprise.''
And a new use for a word with deep meaning in South Africa.
``If you're a white South African, to say it to someone that you either personally or institutionally have oppressed for decades - that 'I am because we are' - is a pretty radical statement,'' Russell said.
And she believes ubuntu could, and should, have deep meaning to Americans.
``The fact that 40 percent of the children in Milwaukee live below the poverty line would matter to me in a completely different way if I lived with ubuntu at the center of who I am,'' Russell said. ``So really, that's a human value that surpasses any kind of cultural context.''
But is Rivers trivializing a serious ideal by using it in a sports context?
``I suppose there's a risk of that, depending on who the interpreter is,'' Russell said. ``In the hands of Doc Rivers, I think it's safe. ... While he is clearly a fabulous coach, his world also seems bigger than basketball, which is probably why something like ubuntu is so well-kept in his hands.''
Of course, ubuntu also has been adapted for commercial purposes; it's the name of a computer operating system. But perhaps through Rivers' popularization of ubuntu, he can teach basketball fans a life lesson.
``We need to matter to each other, in how we play, how we work and how we live,'' Russell said.
Meanwhile, she has been watching the finals and rooting for the Celtics.
``I'm deeply invested in the Celtics now,'' Russell said. ``And I liked the Celtics before because of Doc, but now it's grown in fun and engagement and it's been great to see him succeed.''
So, does she get some of the credit if Boston wins the title?
``None whatsoever. No. The credit is purely Doc's and the team's,'' Russell said. ``And the credit for ubuntu is the South African people.''

Police say Somersworth man charged in toddler's smothering death lived with child
Chief Medical Examiner Thomas Andrew determined the child, Noah York, died from smothering and ruled his death a homicide.
Jared Pope, 30, of Somersworth was arrested and charged with manslaughter for allegedly causing the child's death, according to the state Attorney General's Office. He is scheduled to be arraigned Monday in the 7th Circuit District Court in Dover.
Geoffrey Ward, an attorney with the AG's Office, confirmed York and Pope lived in the same apartment at 231 High St. but declined to say whether they were related.
Ward said he couldn't comment on the circumstances leading up to the incident, how the child was smothered or why Pope was charged specifically with manslaughter.
Police, firefighters and emergency personnel responded at 5:48 p.m. Friday to 231 High St. after a 911 call — placed from Apt. 2, where the pair lived — reported a toddler was in distress.
"The child was in distress when the emergency personnel arrived," Ward said.
Ambulance crews transported York to Wentworth-Douglass Hospital in Dover, where he was later pronounced dead.
Somersworth police referred all inquiries to the Attorney General's Office.

A "bellini" is a cocktail invented in the 1930s at Harry's Bar in Venice, Italy, by Giuseppe Cipriani. It's made with Prosecco, an Italian sparkling white wine, and white peach puree. It's a great way to get an evening started.
"Blini" are leavened Russian buckwheat pancakes traditionally served with sour cream and caviar. The slightly bitter buckwheat is a great foil for the unctuous caviar.
So you see, there is quite a big difference between the two.
I am not one who usually points out this kind of thing, but it's a sore subject for me. I once had a sous-chef who refused to call blini by their proper name. He always referred to them as bellinis, which always got my blood boiling. I thought that if he was going to be second-in-command at a three-star New York City restaurant and serve blini and caviar for $168/portion, he should know how to say it. Fair enough right? (Actually, what's worse is that I think he did know, and that it was his own special brand of taunting me.) So watching Valerie make bad blini in the second episode of Top Chef while at the same time mispronouncing the word, blini, was very irritating.
Thanks, I needed to get that off my chest.

Love and Armchair Psych at St. Michaels Girl's School!

[table of contents]
Torn Skirts and Excuses
Ok...so let's try this
Sono Hanabira Ni Kuchizuke Wo
thing again shall we? As before in the old liveblog the game will go by the name of Shankwo from here on out because the title is too long for its own good. I'm sure there's an actual nickname used by the fandom, but that won't be used. This thing is Shankwo and that's that. For those too lazy to read the page Shankwo is a series of
that take place at some school that is likely a private all girls' Catholic institution. You know how this shit goes.
And now...we begin...
We are first greeted to this
that you see here. This is our title screen and those our lovely heroines...um...I forgot their names. Well. I will call them Pink Girl and Rapist for the time being.
This here
is the music that plays on the title screen and during much of the game. I don't have terribly kind thoughts on the music and will sum them up as kindly as possible. It is boring. As such I will be listening to other music while playing. Currently said other music is the soundtrack of
Billy Hatcher And The Giant Egg
which you should listen to because it's awesome. Before I continue I must comment on this title screen...There is
Cheeky Mouth
. Aondeug does not like to see
Cheeky Mouth
. Rapist has patterns on her bra. This is the most interesting thing about this particular image I think. I'm not sure why I am so fascinated by those patterns. It's something that I haven't noticed until now and for whatever reason I'm busy going Hey! Neato!. That's enough rambling about the title screen though...There's still a game to play (well read really).
And now our adventures begin! We are treated to a picture of what appears to be the school track and are informed that whatever this thing is about it began in April. Which is the month I was born in. Pink Girl worries about the length of her skirt. I would worry too if I were in an eroge. She tells us that her uniform is bean-jam colored.
Reference 1
src= Reference 2 (with some girl ass!)
. That isn't really bean jam colored...That's pointless nit picking though... We have other things to examine! Apparently the translators aren't American because they spell it coloured. Well that's pointless too...Now back to Pink Girl...She is spending her time fretting about her appearance and informing us that she bought an uniform one size too small...I am not sure I understand Pinky's logic much. Pinky also thinks that bows look like bunny tails (look at reference 2 to see said bow). This was what made her decide to go to this school. Pinky concerns me already and I'm not even in the game.
Aaaaaaaaaaand the school is called St. Michaels Girls Academy. Private Catholic all girls school. Yep.
And...what is this? Pinky's parents laughed at her and her homeroom teacher just gave her a bad look. Everyone lacks faith in Pinky. I can see why. Pinky can too since her grades are shit. At least she admits to this. Pinky is apparently a stubborn thing who can actually work hard when her mind is in it. Needless to say she got accepted. Oooh. I have learned Pinky's name! Oda
Nanami. With that we have a scene change...to...
Behind the school buildings! Remember this location kids. Exciting shit happens here later and by exciting I mean sex. For the mean time though Nanami is busy moaning about her uniform being too tight. Again I have to wonder why she ordered one that was too small... She's a growing girl. Even her mom said so. Well it's certainly backfired on her is just driving her already low self esteem down the drain. Nanami quickly blames her mother for this. Nanami here is demonstrating a one of Freud's defense mechanisms by making up an excuse that passes off her guilt onto her mother. We call this rationalization and Nanami is a big fan of this as are most people. Nanami is aware that she's not being exactly truthful here and then proceeds to make the excuse of sweets are to girls like catnip is to cats. It can't be her fault. The temptation is too much for anyone to bear. So Nanami is making another excuse for the excuse she already made in an attempt to avoid having to accept that she was dumb and should have listened to her mother (who she is blaming remember).
Now away from the arm chair psychology and back to the plot. Nanami is continuing to fret. It is what she does. Fret
and get raped
. But...wait...what is this...AN OMINOUS SOUND?! This can mean one thing and one thing only. Her uniform has ripped. She proceeds to blame God for this when she could be blaming the tree branch that her skirt got caught on. Either it is an unfortunate stroke of luck and we can't really blame Nanami for this one. Her dreams crashing before her very eyes Nanami does the only thing she can. Cry. I probably would too to be honest.
However as always there is the convenient mystery savior to help us! A mysterious woman known in the game as ??? and to us as Rapist (you will learn why soon enough). Nanami is dumbstruck by Rapist's hotness and no longer feels like her world is falling apart. She compares Rapist to the Virgin Mary which is...distressing on many levels. This means that Nanami wants to bone Mary who happens to be a Virgin and the Mother of all mankind. Then again Nanami's Japanese so we shouldn't assume she knows anything about Christianity beyond Churches are pretty, There are nuns, Jesus came back from the dead, and CROSSES OMG. Moving on... Like all good convenient saviors Rapist has on her a sewing kit and offers to fix Nanami's skirt free of charge! Lucky you girl! After this Nanami realizes that she is smelling something nice...PERFUME. I am not a fan of perfume really, but hey if that's what gets Nanami hot and bothered eh. We also learn something new about Nanami. She is fond of vaguely infant like noises like Auuu and Fweh. Perhaps Nanami is trapped in a baby like mentality at her age in some ways. Plot wise Rapist informs Nanami that she can take a shortcut through the gym to reach the Orientation Ceremony in time. Nanami runs off and stops to ask Rapist's name. Rapist happily obliges and reveals that she is named Matsubara Yuuno. Like everything else about Rapist this makes Nanami swoon. After saying thank you she runs off to her precious orientation. And this my friends is how Nanami met her Onee-sama. This is also where our first entry will end.
But wait?! Where's the sex! That's coming. Next time. And boy is it a thing...a thing filled with rape. Not that I'm complaining. Rape's good.

Lol. Yeah, comparing Yuuna to the Virgin Mary is very strange especially considering what gets revealed about Yuuna fairly soon.
At any rate, it's good to see this liveblog back up. More armchair psyche about a yuri eroge is always good.

Pretty standard fare, nothing too wild about this menu, except it is seriously lacking in veggies. But there is always a crudite platter to munch on before dinner, right next to the olives & pickles.
This is the second year I'm attempting my grandmother's scalloped corn. Last year it was delicious, but it wasn't very much like Grandma's. Her corn recipe was thick and custardy, and I know there were eggs, but that is the extent of my knowledge. Most of the recipes include corn bread, and I don't remember a corn bread taste or texture. We'll see how it turns out this year.

My other sister-in-law will probably tackle the green bean casserole, because she nailed it during her last visit.
My mother-in-law is making a family recipe for the dressing, and the famous Stevens noodles. These noodles are so yummy - a traditional Belgian recipe that she learned from her own MIL many years ago.
Jason is in charge of the turkey and ham. He fries the turkey every year, after brining and injecting flavor. Oh yes, this is serious business. I can't express how much I appreciate being able to focus on the side dishes and leave the main dish in his capable hands.
And this year I decided to tackle coconut cream pie, which is brand new for me. Pumpkin pie might as well be made of canned cat food, because no one goes near it in this house. I'd rather make something that will be eaten.
Add a couple of appetizers, some fun cocktails, a few bottles of wine, the obligatory football game, and we're looking forward to a great holiday with family!

He's too stiff now. He used to play jokes on people (see Pumping Iron) only when he knows he can intimidate and he's the one doing the joking. Deosn't like it when people do it to him.

Linda, you may not be able to stand pranksters but no one can stand prudish folk who take them selves way too seriously.

Haha I've seen this interview it was a joke what he said. Arnold is Johnny's huge fan and he respects him. You guys need to lighten up. Arnold is cooler than cool and loves a good joke.

What type of critical plan work are you searching to accomplish for a gadget that you cannot carry out currently? I highly recommend you keep in mind that when Steve Careers launched the ipad device, it absolutely was displayed as being a finally podium solution (along along with personal computers along with laptops). Expecting the tablet to try and do SolidWorks style job is absolutely not exactly what its suitable for. In that very same vein, that which you may well consider to get non-serious function could possibly be opposite great customer (think salespeople). It's facts concerning efficiency and getting what works most effective for you.

Doug Bridges: Maybe it's just because he seems to be everywhere as the MC for chamber of commerce events and Rotary club dinners, in TV commercials for Camp Gencheff, at the Metro Credit Union and he's always wearing a jacket and tie. Curious to see what he wears when he mows his lawn.

I am really loving the theme/design of your web site. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility problems? A few of my blog visitors have complained about my blog not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Firefox. Do you have any solutions to help fix this issue?

Two Rovers goals in two minutes from Ayegbeni Yakubu and Christopher Samba looked to have sealed a valuable win but Norwich were not to be denied.

"Clean, comfortable and would recommend this hotel."
"Our room was clean and comfortable. It would have been nice to have some fruit at the breakfast bar and maybe some yogurts. The staff was very friendly and helpful."
8 out of 10 | Ilia stayed December 27, 2005
"This is actually more a motel and it's pretty no-frills (not sure it worth 3 stars assigned to it by many travel sites) and has more than average breakfast, but it's clean, staff is friendly and it's only 10-minutes car ride to downtown Montreal or Old City. Not close to airport but very convenient to get to by car if your're driving from Ontario or States."

Terry, I'm not related to the Argenbrights (as far as I know), but wanted to share a little information with you. I make historical reproductions of Confederate wooden canteens and one day came across a canteen inscribed by M.W.D. Argenbright. This canteen is in a private collection in Gettysburg. I repaired it for the present owner and took several photos of it in order to make reproductions of it. The canteen is presently on display in his shop in Gettysburg. You will also find Merideth's Confederate Pension application at the following url located at the Library of Virginia. http://ajax.lva.lib.va.us/F/H6JHN8VKALBCDVUE1ENKLFBBIJVYQCA3BNSRBRP2ETA1SH6YIR-03244?func=full-set-set&set_number=004832&set_entry=000006&format=999
I hope some of this information is helpful, and if you would like a copy of the canteen photo's, I'll be more than happy to forward them to you. Regards, Wes Stokes
