Myspace began rolling out its redesigned Web site and new product suite in beta Wednesday, aiming for a full rollout to all of its global users by the end of November.
The refocusing of the social-networking site to an entertainment hub will bring with it new features, including easier access to Myspace-exclusive content and fare from around the Web, as well as enhanced sharing tools.
Myspace also said it will focus more on curators, giving its more influential users the resources, tools, and platform to expand their reach.
The Myspace home page can be viewed in three different formats: the list view, or the traditional Myspace look; the grid view, a magazine-like format; and the play view, which allows users to watch, forward, and resize their updates to full-screen.
More details from the social network's Meet the New Myspace announcement:
The redesigned Myspace welcome page showcases fresh content as it bubbles up across the beta site in real time. Additionally, once a user logs in to Myspace, the page will instantly populate with content based on the individual's interests, creating a unique, contextually relevant discovery experience.
To complement the online experience, Myspace will soon release a mobile version of the beta site, accessible on any mobile browser. A new Myspace app for iPhone and Android devices will follow later this year.
Myspace has released a suite of initial features that empower people to discover, collect, and display entertainment content, while also offering tailored recommendations. These features include:
Welcome to the new Myspace
myspace | Myspace Video
Topics — Myspace features more than 20,000 entertainment-focused, dynamic pages organized around topics. These pages provide a centralized location to view aggregated information about specific subject matter from a wide variety of news sites and blogs including MTV, the Los Angeles Times, Access Hollywood, The New York Times, The Village Voice, and Just Jared.
Content Hubs — These comprehensive entertainment destinations are specifically dedicated to movies, television, and celebrities. The pages combine programmed editorial with trending articles that feature news, videos, and photos from various content partners. Additionally, each individual article within the hubs recommends related content and topics. Hubs focused on games, comedy, sports, and fashion will be revealed in the coming months.
Personalized Stream — The new stream automatically learns what to feature based on a user's preferences and habits, so they see more of what they love and less of what they don't.
Recommendations — This feature recommends relevant topics and other fans based on algorithms that learn the type of content a user views, listens to, or watches and from whom or where they discovered it.
Right Now on Myspace — This feature shows trending content in real time on Myspace, helps fans find recently added music and videos, and lets them listen or watch right from the interactive chart. Myspace uses these trends to inform recommendations that promote discovery and engagement.
Discovery Tab — This always-accessible tab combines videos that friends are watching with what's trending in real time on Myspace. Scroll to the top of any page and the new Discovery Tab drops down as a horizontal film strip.
My Stuff Tab — My Stuff is an easy way to see all that's personal to a user — their profile, photos, videos, and uploaded content, structured as a drop-down menu with different content areas.
Badges — This feature recognizes and rewards curators and fans for their social activity around entertainment topics on the beta site and promotes them with badges — graphic icons that appear in a user's stream.
Myspace CEO Mike Jones added in a post titled New Myspace Is Here:
Today we begin the global rollout of the new Myspace, and we couldn't be more excited.
Let's open by saying that we wouldn't be anywhere without you. It's your passion, creativity, and energy that drives Myspace forward and makes it an exciting place to be. That's why we've designed the new site with you and your interests in mind.
We know you're all about entertainment. Not only do you love discovering new bands, watching exclusive movie trailers and clips, keeping up with your favorite celebrities, and playing games, but you like to share these experiences with your friends and likeminded people. Of course, you want to be able to do all this online, on your phone, and at events like Secret Shows.
We call this social entertainment. Everything about the new Myspace — from the layout and design, to the color scheme, and even our logo — has been remade to deliver the best social entertainment experiences.
The new Myspace is cleaner, with a new design that puts content center stage. It's also smarter, providing you with a personalized experience by recommending content based on your interests. And new tools like the Discovery Tab, My Stuff Tab, and "Right Now on Myspace" show you what's trending on the site and make it easier for you to save and share it.
These are just a few of the things you can find in the new Myspace. For info on all the new features, and a fun video, check out www.myspace.com/newmyspace.
If you don't have the new Myspace yet, that's OK — everyone will be upgraded to the new site by the end of November. As you explore the site, feel free to let us know what you think in the comments below! The new Myspace was built for you, so we'd love to hear your feedback.
This is the new Myspace. We're incredibly proud of it, and we hope you enjoy it.

Sesame Workshop says Elmo puppeteer Kevin Clash has resigned from "Sesame Street" in the wake of allegations that he had sex with an under-aged youth. Last week a man accused Clash of having sex with him when he was a teenage boy, a charge Clash denied. A day later, the man recanted his charge. A lawsuit by a second accuser was filed Tuesday, Nov. 20, according to attorney Cecil Singleton. (AP Photo/Victoria Will, File)

Perhaps in anticipation of the hard slog through the beginning of the post-Coachella workweek, Spotify has released a study on people's music listening habits at their 9-to-5s. (A rough comedown is only to be expected after spending the weekend in an air-conditioned oasis in the middle of one of the summer's hottest music festivals - literally and figuratively.)On April 10, Spotify posted on their website that they had partnered with research consultant Dr. Anneli Haake to study how people at work listen to music. The music streaming service published some of the results on their blog, but provided more detailed numbers to Billboard.

INDIANAPOLIS – Kurt Busch just made his attempt at completing The Double a lot tougher after crashing during Monday's practice at Indianapolis.
Busch spun coming out of the second turn on the 2.5-mile oval and slammed hard into the outside wall. It was the biggest crash of the month.
Andretti Autosport said Monday night the car would not be repaired by the Indy 500 and Busch will drive teammate Marco Andretti's backup car. Busch will still start 12th.
Debris flew into the air, there was a small fire and one of the tires rolled dangerously down the track as the car rolled to a stop on the infield grass.
But the hardest part for Busch was contemplating all the work that must be done now as he becomes the fourth driver to attempt completing both the Indianapolis 500 and NASCAR's Coca-Cola 600, 1,100 total miles, on the same day. Both races will be run Sunday.
This created a lot of work for the Andretti guys. I feel bad for that, he said. As a rookie, there's things you learn and put it up on the edge and get away with and then there's times when it will bite you. It's just tough.
Fortunately, Busch was not seriously hurt. IndyCar medical director Dr. Michael Olinger checked him at the infield medical center and immediately cleared him to drive.
The track will be closed until Friday when the final 1-hour practice sessions will be held.
Busch said he was fine and ready to return to racing Friday when the final 1-hour practice sessions will be held.
Busch said it wasn't a big deal he had to switch cars because he completed his Indy rookie orientation program earlier this month in a different Andretti Autosport car.
The team then took the car back to its Indy shop to determine whether the car could be repaired.
Initially, officials said Busch would start from the back of the field if he used another car in the race. Series officials later clarified that would not be the case, something that should help Busch.
He qualified 12th, the outside of Row 4 on the 33-car starting grid. No driver has won Indy after starting 33rd.
What happened?
I was starting to feel comfortable, Busch said. That's when I made the mistake of just letting my guard down or settling into that long run-type mentality whereas with an Indy car you have to be on edge. You have to keep track of where you are at all times and the adjustments in the car.
Other IndyCar drivers thought Busch may have been done in by his NASCAR roots.
It looked like he just got loose in two and it looked to me like he overcorrected, like you would in NASCAR, Josef Newgarden said.
Here are five other things from practice.
New leader
Though the speed chart from Monday's practice means little because teams were working on race setup in traffic, Newgarden, who drives for Sarah Fisher's team was the fastest of the day. His best lap was 227.105 mph. Juan Pablo Montoya, the 2000 Indy winner who drives for Roger Penske, was second at 226.532. Scott Dixon, also a previous Indy winner, was third at 226.433, for Target Chip Ganassi and Russia's Mikhail Aleshin was the fastest rookie at 226.371. Aleshin was fourth.
Acting presidential
NCAA President Mark Emmert got a chance to show a different side at Indianapolis. He opened practice waving the green flag and also got a chance to ride around the track with three-time Indy winner Dario Franchitti, who retired last fall. That was the best ever, Emmert said. He (Dario) was always my favorite driver.
Marriage vows
Longtime Indianapolis 500 fans Cory and Linlee Patterson of Lafayette were married Sunday in one of the Tower Terrace suites. They met speedway president Doug Boles, pole-winner Ed Carpenter. They have attended the past five 500s together.
Olympic quest
Dallas Robinson and Abe Morlu, who worked with the U.S. bobsled and luge team at the Sochi Olympics, were at the track working with Buddy Lazier's team Monday. They met Lazier's engineer, David Cripps, at the Olympics and were reunited at the track. Robinson and Morlu worked with the team and took a ride in the 2-seater driven by Mario Andretti.
The switchback?
NASCAR driver Parker Kligerman started his career in open-wheel cars. Now the 23-year-old is considering a move back. He would replace Busch in the Coca-Cola 600 if Busch doesn't make it back in time. I have a love for open-wheel cars and it's something that me and my manager Bob Perona have talked about, Kligerman said. I've been given a bit of a vacation right now, so I'm taking the opportunity as a race fan and a racer to see what's out there and what the possibilities are.

Appliance Recycling Centers of America, Inc. (Minneapolis, MN, U.S.) reported second quarter 2011 operating income was up 112% to $2.3 million from $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2010. The increase in operating income came mostly from higher byproduct revenues, higher recycling revenues, and stronger profit margins from ARCA Advanced Processing, LLC.
"AAP has made significant strides in its operations with a steady increase in revenues and profitability over the past year," said Edward R. (Jack) Cameron, president and CEO. "Additionally, our California utility replacement program was bolstered by a strong surge of advertising that increased our volumes substantially in the second quarter. While our retail revenues and gross margins remained relatively flat in the second quarter, the improvements we have made in retail operating efficiencies over the past two years have positioned us to operate effectively in the continuing difficult economic climate."
Total 2Q 2011 revenues increased 16.6% to $32.9 million from $28.2 million in 2Q 2010.
Comparable store revenues from ApplianceSmart stores operating during the second quarters of 2011 and 2010 decreased 0.9%, and total retail revenues decreased 0.9% to $18.4 million from $18.6 million in the second quarter of 2010. Lower sales in the Georgia, Ohio, and Texas markets were partially offset by an 8.5% increase in sales in the Minnesota market.
Recycling revenues, which are comprised of appliance recycling fees and appliance replacement program revenues, increased 52.0% to $9.6 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to revenues of $6.3 million in the second quarter of 2010. Appliance recycling fees decreased 6.8% to $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $5.3 million in the second quarter of 2010, due primarily to lower average per-unit recycling fees.
Replacement program revenues of $4.7 million increased 349.0% or $3.7 million from revenues of $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2010, primarily as the result of higher volumes from a California utility customer's refrigerator replacement program. The company expects an increase in replacement program revenues in the third quarter of 2011 compared to the third quarter of 2010. However, it does not expect this trend to continue past the third quarter of 2011.
Byproduct revenues of $4.9 million increased 46.8% or $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2010. The increase in byproduct revenues was primarily the result of higher recycling volumes and higher revenues generated at AAP. Byproduct revenues include all of the revenues generated by AAP.

Parents, you know how it is with kids and toys: The contraptions your tykes beg you for unmercifully for weeks on end usually land under the bed, oh, about two minutes after they finally get them. But there is a remedy: Rather than selling your soul to Toys R Us in order to keep up with juvenile whims, come to the toy library, which features over 400 toys and games for kids up to age eight. Believe it or not, this volunteer-run basement adjunct of the Smiley Library has been around for twenty years, dispensing toys you can check out, three at a time, using your regular library card. Toy library hours are 6 to 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays and 10 a.m. to noon Thursdays and Saturdays (the Thursday hours coincide with the library's weekly story time), but call ahead before coming. And don't forget to dig your borrowed treasures out from under the sofa cushions and return them on time, or they'll rack up ten-cent-a-day late fees, just like library books.

Green 2.0
The next wave of fresh air fuel-savers on display at the L.A. Auto Show.
By November 13, 2008 / Photos by John Lamm and Marc Urbano
With its history of smoggy air, California has taken the lead when it comes to green issues and the Los Angeles show reflected that concern with a slew of second generation environmentally friendly concepts and production vehicles. Here are five cars that hope to make a difference:
2009 Mitsubishi i MiEV
While U.S. sales aren't likely due to cost considerations, the 2009 Mitsubishi i MiEV has gone on sale in the Japanese automaker's home market. The cute little city car uses lithium-ion batteries to power a 63 horsepower electric motor, which enables the vehicle to hit a top speed of 75 mph and have a range of 156 miles between charges. As configured, it's estimated that i MiEV would cost nearly $40,000 if it were to go on sale in the U.S.
2009 Honda Insight
While the 2009 Honda Insight made its world debut earlier this year at Paris, the North American launch occurred at the L.A. show just ahead of the vehicle's release as a production vehicle. Unlike the previous Insight, which was a 2-seat commuter car, the new version is a family-friendly sedan that employs Honda's Integrated Motor Assist, which uses electric power to supplement the output of the car's conventional gasoline engine. Honda says this approach is less expensive and will be reflected in a window sticker that could come in below $20,000.

Apps in a Snap: Smoked Trout Chips
Pull together this no-cook, fast and easy appetizer in a jif by buying pre-cooked trout fillets! Watch this video to learn how to make this app in a snap.
When it comes to party food, chips and dip is the ultimate crowd pleaser. I'm gonna show you how to dress it up so you could even serve it at fancier get-togethers. First, let's make the dip. In a bowl, combine 2/3 of a cup sour cream. Then, using scissors, snip in about 2 tablespoons fresh chives. Finish the dip with about 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill and a little sprinkling of salt and pepper. The dill is gonna add a bright fresh note to our dip, which is gonna go great with the smoked trout we're gonna use later. Then, give it all a quick stir and set it aside. Now, for the fancy ingredient in our dish, the smoked trout. You can find smoked trout in the deli section of most gourmet markets or some supermarkets. I like it because it's a little bit meatier and flakier than smoked salmon. But if you can't find it, smoked salmon will do just fine. Just break it up with your fingers into bite sized pieces. Just before guests show up, put it all together. Grab a ridged potato chip, top it with a little bit of your dip, then finish it with a piece of smoked trout and a fresh sprinkle of dill. Now, that's the chip and dip platter your guests are gonna remember. For more videos, recipes and tips, go to rachaelraymag.com.

Dear Bobbie Lyrics - Yellowcard
Review The Song (6)
Dear Bobbie,
Do you remember when you were young and very pretty? I do, I remember pleated skirts, black and white saddle shoes. Do you remember dancing that night? I do, I still think of you when we dance, although we cant jitterbug as we did back then.
Do you remember when
How long has it been?
1945 you opened my blue eyes
To see a whole new life
Do you remember when
I told you this that night,
That if you're by my side
When everyday begins
I'll fall for you again
I made a promise when
I told you this that night
I'll be fine
Cause when I die, then I die loving you
It's alright, I'll be fine
When I die, then I die loving you
Loving you, loving you
Do you remember the times we would give up on each other and get back together, then we were finally married in 1949. We drove the yellow convertible on our honeymoon. Do you remember? I do.
Life has led us here
Together all these years
This house that we have made
Holds twenty-thousand days
And memories we've saved
Since life has led us here
And I'll be fine (I'll be fine)
Cause when I die, then I die loving you
It's alright (it's alright), I'll be fine (I'll be fine)
Cause when I die, then I die loving you
Loving you, loving you
I'm coming home to you
Slipping off my shoes
Resting in my chair
See you standing there
The silver in your hair
I'm coming home to you
When I lay tonight, when I close my eyes
I know the sun will rise
Here the next life
As long as your still mine, then it's alright
And I'll be fine (I'll be fine)
Cause when I die, then I die loving you
It's alright (it's alright), I'll be fine (I'll be fine)
Cause when I die, then I die loving you
Loving you, loving you
You have gray hair now but you're a beautiful woman and the years have been good to both of us. We walk slow now, but we still have each other. The glue of love is still bonding us together. Love is what I remember. Do you remember?

Amazing! | Reviewer: Joey | 10/23/11
I'm kind of biased towards this song because my wifes name is bobbie. Then when I listened, I absolutely loved it! Yellowcards instrumentals on songs like this are impeccable. His grandfather is pouring out his heart, and its extremely sweet. Excellent job yellowcard!!!
Touching | Reviewer: Alex Caulfield | 10/12/09
I don't care for the singer's lyrics but everything else is beautiful... The words of this old man expressing his love for his woman just touches me deep in a place I never thought I would find. I cried my heart out. Thank you Yellowcard
Amazing | Reviewer: Fannie | 9/18/08
I speak French. When I listen to a song, I have to concentrate on the lyrics to understand them. The first few times I listened to that song, I found it pretty, but nothing more. Then I understood the lyrics. And I almost cried. One of their best songs.

BAOBAB Structures and Personnel
Africa Regional Roaming Institute for Women's Leadership and Training of Trainers
Concept and Background
The Roaming Institutes are based on the concept that everyone can be a leader and, at various times, both a leader and a follower. Sharing power and respect for the other are essential for creating group synergy that empowers the individual, mobilizes collective action, and produces capabilities larger than the sum of those contributed by each individual. These concepts are operationalized in a system of learning that does not preach or teach, but provides an environment in which each individual discovers her own abilities, particularly the ability to relate to others, and become a part of a pool of communicators that produces ideas and solutions all can relate to. Workshops organized around this concept are dialogue-based and interactive. They help clarify a woman's own position, help her understand alternate ways of looking at a given situation, accept differences in outlook and approach, learn how to work towards achieving a shared view, and respect diversity whether or not a common vision is created. This method of learning, tested in the WLP Partnership leadership training workshops in 12 Muslim-majority countries, has proved successful in creating an atmosphere of tolerance, building self-confidence and honing conflict prevention skills.
Need for the Roaming Institutes has been expressed by WLP's partner organizations in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, who following the establishment of the WLP Women's Leadership Programs in their countries recognized the need for special training of trainers sessions that enhance the leadership, communication, and advocacy skills of grassroots trainers and women's rights advocates. In response to this need, WLP convened a prototype pilot Roaming Institute for Women's Leadership in June 2002 in Maryland, USA to ascertain and establish the framework for the curriculum and training in future national and regional Institutes. Participants in the pilot Institute were women leaders in the WLP Partnership including lawyers, educators, women's rights activists, and grassroots organizers from Afghanistan, Cameroon, Jordan, Lebanon, Malaysia, Morocco, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestine, and Uzbekistan. Together they honed their facilitation skills and strategize about ways of creating flexible learning environments for rights advocacy through dialogue and consensus building.
Using this model, a Middle East/North Africa Training Institute was convened in Jordan in December 2003 and an Afghan National Training Institute in Kabul, Afghanistan in April 2004.
Objectives and structure of the Africa Regional Roaming Institute
The goal of the Africa Regional Roaming Institute for Women's Leadership is to train women's rights activists in the African Region to become better trainers and advocates for women's equal participation in civil society. The Institute focuses on:
(a) Facilitation skills training– comprehensive training in facilitation techniques that put into practice the participatory leadership concepts such as developing shared vision, meaningful dialogue, and cooperation.
(b) Communication and advocacy training– creating media campaigns, and learning to communicate effectively to influence decision-makers and mobilize the public.
The Roaming Institute to be held in Calabar, Nigeria from February 21 - 25, 2005 will be structured as follows:
I. Training in facilitation techniques (February 21 - 22):
A. How to create a workshop environment that stimulates group discussions, foster plurality of opinions, and promotes consensus building.
B. How to "break the ice" among workshop participants, and enable them to communicate freely and easily.
C. How to document the progress and outcomes of the workshops, and evaluate the long-term impact of the training.
II. Communications and advocacy strategy development (February 23-24):
III. Evaluation and Conclusion (February 25):
Twenty –six (26) participants will attend the Institute, with sixteen (16) from African countries (Cameroon, Ghana, The Gambia, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Uganda and Zimbabwe), eight (8) Nigerians -(five (5) from BAOBAB and three (3) from other Nigerian organizations), and two (2) WLP trainers from the Women's Learning Partnership (WLP). The participants will include lawyers, educators, women's human rights activists, and grassroots organizers, among others, and will be selected independently based on local need. At least two participants from each country will be affiliated with a women's organization so that the skills and information gained, and commitments made during the training can be shared with other staff, volunteers, program participants, and consultants.
WLP (www.learningpatnership.org ) prepared a prototype curriculum for use in national and regional Roaming Institutes. Entitled Leading to Choices: A Multimedia Curriculum for Leadership Learning, the package is designed for use in interactive workshops where participants are at the center of the learning experience. Participants engage in "learning by doing" and simulating scenarios that do not require a right answer but encourage a cooperative and respectful exploration of concepts and strategies. This democratic structure engages each individual in critical analysis and purposeful application of the ideas discussed.
The framework for the curriculum was developed at the pilot Roaming Institute WLP convened in June 2002. Based on participant feedback, and the audio- visual materials compiled during the Institute, WLP developed three learning guides and three companion videos that form a part of the Leading to Choices multimedia curriculum. The three modules, entitled Learning to Facilitate Interactively, Communicating for Change, and Developing Effective Advocacy Campaigns, are designed to help women strengthen their skills for facilitating participatory leadership workshops, to enable women to create and disseminate effective massages through the most expedient and locally appropriate communications channels, and to provide activists with strategies and tactics that enable them to advocate successfully for women's human rights. One of the goals of the Africa Regional Roaming Institute is to test and adapt the Leading to Choices multimedia curriculum in order to create a culture-specific African edition of the material.
November 25-December 10, 2004
16 Days Activism against Gender Based Violence
One of BAOBAB's objectives is collaborating with like-minded organizations in mutually agreed campaigns and programmes, such as the 16 Days of Activism against Gender Violence worldwide.
The 16 days of Activism Against Gender Violence is an International Campaign originating from the first Women's Global Leadership Institute sponsored by the Center for Women's Global Leadership in 1991. Participants chose the dates, November 25th, International Day Against Violence Against Women, and December 10th International Human Rights Day, for activities worldwide in a concerted effort to highlight the variety of heinous crimes of violence committed against women. The November date was chosen to commemorate the violent recognized November 25th as the International day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. Previously, in 1948, people and states the world over had celebrated the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. These dates are commemorated together in order to symbolically link violence against women and Human Rights, and to emphasize that such violence is a violation of human rights.
For the past eleven years, over 1, 000 individuals and organizations from over 100 countries have sponsored activities in their communities during the 16 Days of Activism against Gender Violence, November 25 - December 10, to raise awareness about all forms of violence against women. Activists have used this 16-day period to create solidarity movement that raises awareness around gender-based assassination in the Dominican Republic of the Mirabal sisters, (Patria, Minerva and Maria Teresa), political activist and highly visible symbols of resistance to the Trujillos dictatorship, on that date in 1960 by the secret police of Rafael Trujillo. In 1999 the United Nations officially violence as a human rights abuse. The movement works to ensure better protection for survivors of violence and calls for the elimination of all forms of violence against women.
For the past decade BAOBAB has joined the rest of the world in marking the "16 Days…" through various programmes such as press briefing, media interviews, solidarity trek, popular theatre, thematic workshops, distribution of BAOBAB's publications, etc. These have created awareness and have contributed in expanding BAOBAB's network.
The mobilization and advocacy working group is proposing a number of activities for this year's "16 Days…" which has the theme "For the Health of Women, For the Health of the World: No more Violence."
We believe that BAOBAB's partnership with the press in the past has been fruitful but could be further enhanced through more collaborative programmes such as the 16 Days global campaign. BAOBAB plans to start off this year's campaign with a press briefing which will be accompanied by a press statement for wider coverage in the media. A few representatives from NGOs will be invited for solidarity. After the press briefing, there will be a debate by a small group of teenagers with a few secondary school students as supporting audience. The topic of the debate will be around the theme of this year's 16 Days…. The Judges will be from BAOBAB and perhaps one or two of the NGO friends interested.
October 2004
BAOBAB is organizing a talent competition, the second of its type and the start of a biennial commitment to promoting women's rights amongst children and young adults.
The proposed project is a children's Talent competition, designed to enable children to exercise and develop their talents, while raising their awareness of the issue of women's rights as human rights. The competition will promote young people's appreciation of human rights from a gender perspective. It will also encourage young people to think and talk about rights in general and in particular, recognize women's human rights as basic human rights. The talent competition is designed to facilitate an early process for the shaping of children and young men and women's discourse in manner that will take for granted that women's rights are human rights and promote their ability to recognize violations of women's and girls' rights in their own experiences.
There are three areas to the competition - art, writing and music. Children may make a design for a t-shirt compose or write a poem, essay or short short on the theme of women's human rights.
The three age categories are - Children (under 13 years), teenagers (13-19) and young adults (20-30 years of age).
The theme for this year's talent competition is "The Power of Information in Promoting Women Human Rights".
We widely distributed the handbills and posters for the competition and we received about 200 entries from different parts of the country. Selections have been made and the National prize giving day has been slated for October 2004.

I ordered this rug on Overstock after admiring it on other websites for seriously like 6 months. Overstock had the best price, by far, and also sold the 8 x 10 version, which I couldn't find. The rug is gorgeous - high pile and bright colors.
Beautiful rug! Everyone who comes to our house loves it!
Great rug. Hasn't been shedding. Colors are a bit more bold in person than the website. It's definitely for someone that wants a bolder look in their room.

Caption: These maps show winter temperature patterns (top) and winter precipitation patterns (bottom) associated with a curvy jet stream (not shown) that moves north from the Pacific to the Yukon and Alaska, then plunges down over the Canadian plains and into the eastern United States. A University of Utah-led study shows that starting 4,000 years ago, the jet stream tended to become curvier than it was between 8,000 and 4,000 years ago, and suggests global warming will enhance such curviness and thus frigid weather in the eastern states similar to this past winter's. The curvy jet stream brought abnormally warm temperatures (red and orange) to the West and Alaska and an abnormal deep freeze (blue) to the East this past winter, similar to what is shown in the top map, except the upper Midwest was colder than shown. The bottom map of a typical curvy jet stream precipitation pattern shows how that normally brings dry winters to reddish-orange areas and wet winters to blue regions. Precipitation patterns this winter matched the bottom map in many regions, except California was drier than expected and the upper Midwest was wetter than expected.

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has left hospital, four days after he was attacked following a rally in Milan.
A spokesman said that the statesman had been in pain, with trouble eating, but had a "more serene" night last night.
He has cancelled public engagements for the next two weeks and is expected to spend the time recovering at his villa in Milan.
Mr Berlusconi suffered two broken teeth and a broken nose during Sunday night's attack, when he was hit with a model of the Milan Cathedral.
