Smut-peddling hackers pwn TechCrunch
Popular technology site TechCrunch was hit by potty-mouth hackers late on Monday, leaving the site temporarily unavailable. A notice on TechCrunch.com's front page on Tuesday morning explains that "TechCrunch.com was compromised by a security exploit". Access to the site's story archive has been suspended leaving a two para …

Couldn't happen to a bigger bunch of jerks.
Re: popular my foot
@Rob Moir:
You mean, it couldn't happen to El Reg?
I jest, sorry. I love The Register.
Don't taze me, bro.
ah, techcrunch
Techcrunch are a little too pally with the tech 'startup' community for my liking. I think it skews their reporting a little bit.
So for me; meh if it means that people find their news from another source, so much the better IMO.
anon becuase, well just because.
"tech site" my foot also
It's a cringe inducing 2.0-fest for Nathan Barleys. The technical insight is on a par with Rory Cellan-Jones or similar.
the pic of the deface in the link "here" in the article on twitpic screenshot, look at the address string of the browser... and search string, too (-:
Lucky there was no malware
Since the hackers were able to modify TechCrunch's front page, they could have modified the page to link to or embed any code they wish to. As my colleague Graham Cluley has noted, it's lucky that there are no malware on the site.
Imagine the impact if, on Apple's product launch day tomorrow, the hackers embed something like the Gumblar on the site, which happens to be very popular these days:
or, a Javascript that launches yet another version of Rogue Antivirus.
Furthermore, with the recent Adobe/Microsoft, etc. vulnerabilities, it's quite possible that many computers have yet to be updated. A multi-exploit malware embedded in the site would have cause much grief.
The end result could get very messy. So TechCrunch readers probably have dodged a bullet here.

My Personal Experience with Eighties Clothes
I have to admit that I wasn't the most fashion conscious person in the 80s, and I became rather confused by all of the loud clothing styles that were around at the time. Subtlety just wasn't an option back in the eighties!
I did buy a pair of chinos in 1989 when they came back in to fashion (it's highly possible that they didn't come back into fashion, especially if I was wearing them), but I do remember Holly Johnson singing about "Americanos, blue jeans and chinos", and Fosters displaying them them in their shop window - whatever happened to Fosters?
Well, I suppose I preferred a more casual, less in your face look, but never managed to achieve it in the 80s. For instance, I decided to ask my parents to buy me a pair of white shoes when I was about 14 years old. I decided not to go for the white suit (as worn by Don Johnson out of Miami Vice), and so I looked far from from casual wearing white shoes with jeans. In fact, I probably looked a right prat!
Yes, that ended up being one of many fashion disasters I brought upon myself during the eighties. Why on earth did I think that I was going to look cool in a pair of white shoes with jeans? Anyhow, I used to get into a right mess with the bottle of white, liquid polish and my trousers just ended up covered in white stains - try explaining that one to your girlfriend!
Well, you can't blame me for sticking to more casual, run-of-the-mill attire these days - I think it's safer that way!
I do remember many of my friends suddenly starting to boast about the fact that they were wearing Boxer shorts in the late 80's. An old school friend who had started a market stall tried to sell me a job lot, but I wasn't having any of it. I couldn't stand the things back then and I still won't go near them today. What is the point of them anyway? They don't hold anything in place!
Big Aviator Spectacles
Here we have a typical 80's fashion look. BBC Radio One DJ Steve Wright in 1985 wearing the popular striped shirt with white collar, skinny tie and BIG aviator spectacles! I didn't need glasses at the time, so I can't share my experience of wearing them, although I did buy some cheap mirror lens aviator shades which were all the rage.
Neither did I wear one of those stripy shirts with the white collar, but I did own a shirt in the late eighties with thick blue and white stripes which seemed to be popular at the time.
Ties became wider and Suits with turned-up legs became popular later on in the decade and I used to wear one whenever I went nightclubbing. I really enjoyed dressing smartly, and Men definitely looked a lot smarter in the clubs back in the eighties (in my part of England, at least!) and you just couldn't get past the bouncer if you were looking scruffy. The rules seemed to be relaxed as we moved on into the 90s, though.
Parachute Pants
These voluminous pants were worn by breakdancers and rappers (such as MC Hammer) in the second half of the 80s. However, the original parachute pants from the late 70s and early 80s were made of nylon and a lot tighter, with a ridiculous number of zips.
In complete contrast to all of the glamorous styles of the eighties, looking like a mechanic (who all seem to pretentiously label themselves as technicians these days) was another odd trend that reared its ugly head during the eighties. Bananarama did just that for their Cruel Summer single in 1983.
However, before this in 1982 Dexy's Midnight Runners introduced us to their new Irish Gypsy look (which included dungarees) and a new sound to accompany it.
It seems that donning a pair of overalls becomes trendy at some point in every decade, probably when the wearer has totally run out of fashion ideas.
Adam Ant combined new romanticism with 16th century pirate fashion to create an individualistic and iconic 80s style. You can read more about the new romantics on the main 80s fashion page.
These bookmarks show four different styles adopted by 80s fashion pioneer Adam Ant.
Members Only Jackets
The Members Only brand was actually created in the mid 1970s. The jacket was launched in 1981 with the advertising slogan "when you put it on, something happens". Well, yes, you became a little warmer, so they weren't lying.
The jackets were available in many colours and if you didn't own one then you made to feel worthless by annoying trend-setters. Personally, I much preferred a comfortable Parka myself. The brand is still going strong and is popular with certain "celebrities".

It's a fact in most families, relatives feel they have an unalienable right to meddle. The thought is that since you are related, you should share every intimate detail of your life with each other, and give commentary and suggestions. In large families, they gossip about other family members. There are no secrets, and, just as in the childhood game "Telephone," the story changes as it's passed between family members. You, as a member of this family, fall into two categories; you either feel your life is an open book or you choose to have certain aspects of your life private. So what do you do if you fall into the latter category? Hiding doesn't work. The more you try to retain your privacy, the harder they will work to pry information from you. A better approach is to feed some information to the informer of your family, and retain your privacy on others. Your family will assume that you are an open book, and you can maintain a certain amount of anonymity.
The first thing you need to do is determine how your issue may affect the family. Assuming that you live separately from your siblings and parents, you must determine what the likelihood is of them discovering the issue. If you are going to be arrested, for example, it's best to give them at least some details. They are going to find out, and it's going to be worse for you. If you are having marital trouble? There is no need to say anything unless you are actually filing for divorce. The smallest of squabbles between a couple will turn into a full-blown fistfight once the news reaches Aunt Edna in Des Moines.
If you are actually "caught" by a member of your family doing something you don't care to share, you have two options. Deny, and/or create a plausible cover story. If you are caught dancing naked on a bar at 3:00 in the afternoon, remember that it is going to be your word against theirs. Were there pictures taken? If so, it's time to face the music with a good cover. Maybe you were dancing for charity? An unfortunate medication interaction? Be creative.
The bottom line is that it is your life. You don't have to listen to interfering relatives. If you don't want their advice, don't ask for it. If they volunteer their wisdom, listen to them politely and move on. Granted, listening to your sister's diatribe on how you wasted your life by not marrying for money is bothersome, but do you truly care? The only thing you can control is your reaction to their meddling. They aren't going to stop, you might as well have fun with it.

Organic, pesticide free, non toxic flowers are what I recommend to anyone who wants fresh flowers on their cake. I also use flower spikes to hold them...no stems into the cake. As far as the florist arranging the flowers, I have it written into my contract that NOBODY BUT ME puts anything on the cake!!! If they want flowers, toppers, etc, they must be there for me at the time of set up, their contract is void if someone else damages the cake.

I will not stick stems in cakes, that is just nasty! And I have had a wannabe florist mess up the cake with her stupid flowers. It was in a two tier, with separations. The roses were supposed to be I. The separation, and I told her that, but she thought they would look much better all around the sides and on top.... Darn her....

I had a mexican stand-off not too long ago with a florist who insisted SHE was going to put the flowers on my cake. I asked to see her Food Safety Supervisors or Food Handlers certificate.
Result: a win for the cake decorator!

What scares me more than sticking flowers directly into cake....is sticking "toxic" flowers directly into cake. I have seen that often....and from local bakeries in my town. Many bakeries and cake decorators do not know what is toxic and not. Scarey.

Would you put the flower pick in the cake with or without water? I would think without water. And when would you put the flowers on? I'm just debating this tonight for tomorrow's wedding cake. All the cakes I do have had sugar flowers. This one has real flowers... Now I'm trying to figure out what to do, lol. Good thread by the way
Depends on the flower. Roses will be fine for several flowers with no water. Hydrangeas (also poisonous) will shrivel after 1 hour with no water. My 4 year old son picked me a small dandelion yesterday, and after about 2 hours, I could barely find it, it was so shriveled. Gerbera daisies look great after 4 or 5 hours with no water.

Yes I agree flowers stems should not be stuck into a cake. As you have stated a corsage style secured with a sterilized pin is great, you can also use a small dish with oasis for the top of the cake. The flowers stay fresh, no mess on the cake, they can be moved easily when cake is to be cut. If placing flowers on per stems, these can be cut and a tooth pik inserted at the base of the flowers then wraped these can then be placed into the cake carefully. The other alternative is to cut the stem very short wrap if possible, place on cake and secure with a sterilized pin, the hole in cake is minimal. There are a number of other ways to place flowers on a cake wihtout stiking a stem into it.
The person who actually makes the cake should place the flowers on the cake, but as I have found the bride also discusses this with the florist and at times the florist is the one doing this. In both cases you must check out the style of the cake and find out what icing is being used. This will enable you the work out how you will proceed with the arrangement required.
Hope this helps. If anyone has any other ideas I am all for learning more.

I have used a little disc with oasis (provided by the florist) on the top of the cake, with a small disc of wax paper around it to cover any petals that shouldn't touch. I have also used floral picks poked into the cake as well as stems wrapped in plastic wrap and then inserted into straws before being poked into the cake. HOWEVER, I do not recommend this when the bride wants a lot of flowers! If the flowers are small and light, keep the stem and straw short. Only poke way into the cake for very heavy flowers.

This is a pet peeve of mine. No matter how many times you contact the florist (any florist) by phone or in writing, they never get it right. Not being crabby - being honest. For example, a wedding I did last week - I asked repeatedly for one large one medium and one small corsage for the cake. Got one small and two medium and when I pulled them out of their containers they were soaking wet. It was obvious that the florist spritzed them in their cases, not realizing that water eats right through fondant. I also got super huge calla lilies that were way too big for the cake and their outer edges were curling backwards. The Ivy was dead, floppy and wilted. I had to work for quite a while to make this mess look halfway decent and the florist gets the money for it, the time I spent on it was free of charge. Most of the flowers come off a boat from over seas and is grown in brackish waters where sanitary conditions aren't regulated like they are in the States. When you cut the stems that bacteria filled water goes directly into the cake. Too many stems inserted into water picks then into the cake cracks the finish. Corsages are the way to go. Straws have open ends so that's not good, wraps might have latex or ingredients guests would be allergic to,Saran may come away from the stems and be served to unsuspecting guests. Sugar flowers get my vote.

The Chaco ZX/1 Unaweep features two narrow straps rather than one wider strap, allowing the sandal to more accurately conform to the curvatures of your feet. Inspired by Chaco's classic basket weave, the ZX/1 is an attractive addition to their Performance line. Long the gold standard with river guides and outdoor professionals, Chaco's Performance line continues to transform first-time wearers into lifetime believers with durability, BioCentric comfort and incomparable fit.Chaco raises the bar again this season with the introduction of dramatically lighter polyurethane midsoles and two new performance outsoles. To create the new Uniweep sole, Chaco combined the most intelligent features from their previous Colorado and Terreno soles. With Vibram durability, the Unaweep outsole is a great combination of slip resistance, traction and light weight. The lug pattern and spacing makes this sole virtually self-cleaning. Be sure to read the Performance Sandal adjustment guide in order to properly fit your new sandals.

NOTEBOOK: Chargers, Broncos do some serious slinging
Josh McDaniels, the head coach whose Denver Broncos are next in having to deal with the Chargers' wide-open, big-yardage passing game, was going on about the futility of defending against Philip Rivers. Especially in view of the fact that the Chargers have completed more passes (44) of 21 yards or more and Denver's been scorched by the deep ball this season.
"Really, it doesn't matter how tightly you have the receiver covered," said McDaniels of Rivers. "He's probably the most accurate player throwing the ball 35 or more yards down the field that I've ever had a chance to coach against."
Note the last word.
The Broncos, see, have a quarterback who statistically is the National Football League's highest-rated deep-ball passer coming into what shapes up as a shootout Monday night. Rivers and Kyle Orton rank 1-2 in passing yardage, with the former on pace to set the NFL single-season record, but Kyle Orton's actually been a bit better at hitting the long ball.
On throws of 21 yards or farther, Kyle Orton has a rating of 125.0, including completions on half of his 40 attempts for 673 yards. Rivers is third, behind Eli Manning of the New York Giants, with a 98.7 rating on 17-of-34 passing for 654 yards.
It stands to reason that Rivers' figures might improve Monday night. No team has given up more long balls than Denver, which has allowed opposing quarterbacks to complete 15 of 35 passes that traveled at least 21 yards in the air, a rating of 129.5 for opposing quarterbacks on such heaves.
Conversely, other than the Carolina Panthers, San Diego has been the league's best at defending the deep pass. The Chargers have surrendered only eight receptions on 32 attempts thrown beyond 20 yards, limiting quarterbacks to a 45.1 rating with them.
Numbers, numbers, numbers. Chargers head coach Norv Turner produced a long-toss stat of his own, too, for illustration.
"They (Broncos) actually have one play over 40 yards more than us," said Turner. "They have 10, and we have nine. They have made big plays in the passing game, and that has me a little more
concerned than our ability to go make big plays."
McDaniels said he's long thought Rivers "was in that class with Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees" as a leader and quarterback. And it isn't merely Rivers' aim, McDaniels said, that makes him so lethal on the deeper stuff.
"Whatever you're doing around the pocket, his vision never leaves the secondary," said McDaniels. "When he has an opportunity to make those throws, he doesn't need much time to get 'em off. Some people need more time and space; he doesn't. He turns the ball over beautifully on the deep ball, kinda drops it in right where the receiver can grab it."
Orton, on the other hand, clearly is thriving in the Denver system. When with the Chicago Bears in 2005, he went longer than 20 yards with a pass only 48 times the entire 2005 season, completing just 12 of them and being intercepted five times.

Time And Space Lyrics - The Cinematic Orchestra
Every soul
comes to this earth
carried on angels wings
to human birth.
Born of love
or born of hate
each one is heaven sent
to human fate.
Dream...little girl dream
Dream...little boy dream
In joy and pain
Each born will grow.
For wisdom is so much more
than what we know.
And every child
will find their way
of living their own life story
day by day.
Dream...little girl dream
Dream...little boy dream

Last week, the Startabloid and New York Post, ahem, "reported" that Burleson native and American Idol Kelly Clarkson wasn't the "doe-eyed amateur she appeared to be" when she was crowned Queen of Crappy Pop in September. Yeah, and Michael Jackson used to be black, Chevy Chase used to be funny and Jesus used to be a carpenter. As Woodward and Bernstein used to say while sitting on each other's laps: "Yes, but is it news?" Turns out it is, according to newspapers the literate and breathing are too embarrassed to read: According to the Star and, later, the Post, Clarkson "may have already had a recording contract" when she showed up to audition for American Idolearlier this year. "If true," wrote the Post's Michael Starr on December 12, "that means Clarkson may have violated the show's rule about not being an amateur with no prior professional singing experience."
The papers reported that Clarkson was in the middle of recording an album in Los Angeles with three music industry pros, including Brill Building songwriting legend Gerry Goffin, when she bailed and headed back to Texas for the auditions at the Wyndham Anatole Hotel on May 5. "She signed a production deal with us in early March to record a full slate of 12 songs for an album," says engineer Barry Goldberg, who was also involved in the recordings (and has worked with the likes of Reverend Horton Heat and Marilyn Manson). "But after doing five wonderful songs, she walked out."
Turns out that's true...but, of course, not the whole story.
Now, if you read the first two stories, well, you'd think Goffin, Goldberg and engineer-guitarist Michael Blum were getting ready to sue Clarkson for, among other things, breach of contract and being a big fat liar. And you'd be awfully wrong.
On December 12, the Dallas Observercontacted Los Angeles attorney Jay Cooper--a powerful, powerful dude who used to be, among other things, president of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences and general counsel for U.S.A. for Africa--to ask him about the articles. The Posthad reported that Cooper had been hired by the three songwriters and producers to get three of the songs released.
Cooper says it's nonsense and insists the trio isn't "even thinking about a lawsuit" or any other legal action.
"We don't have any problems," said Cooper, who sounded last week like he was a little tired of talking about this, mostly because he was. (Every music journalist with time to kill was calling Cooper, who surely has better things to do. I, on the other hand, clearly do not.)
"What happened was the Star took a non-event and tried to make an event out of it," he continued. "The young woman did some tracks with my client for the purpose of trying to get a record deal for her. It didn't come to pass, other than the tracks were recorded. That's it. This whole thing has been totally blown out of proportion."
The attorney says at this point, the only thing he's done on his clients' behalf is talk with Bertelsmann-owned RCA Records, which is planning on releasing Clarkson's full-length debut early next year, about using some of the songs from those sessions, either as they exist or in re-recorded versions. Cooper also says he thinks Goldberg was misquoted by the tabloid. C'mon, pal--that neverhappens.
According to the attorney, the sessions took place between January and March. He says he doesn't know how she met Goffin, who wrote such No. 1 hits as "Will You Love Me Tomorrow" and "The Loco-Motion" with ex-wife Carole King in the late '50s and early '60s, only that Goffin "knew and recognized talent" when he met and offered to work with Clarkson during her stint in Los Angeles.
Goffin couldn't be reached to find out precisely how they met, but it's not like the Staror Posthad to do much homework to find the Goffin connection: Not only does she make the Goffin-King composition "(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman" a staple of her live show, but the Bertelsmann Web site actually refers to her working with Goffin. Then again, what's 13 seconds of Google research when there's an alien baby waiting in Des Moines?
"She held jobs at the zoo, at a pharmacy, as a comedy club waitress, telemarketer and bookstore clerk and finally saved enough money to get to Los Angeles," reads her Bertelsmann bio. "But what initially looked promising turned into a nightmare: Gerry Goffin, a well-known songwriter and Kelly's mentor, suddenly fell ill. Her roommate decided to leave the state. Finally, her apartment burnt down. After just four months in California, the dream of show business had fallen apart--Kelly returned to Burleson."
Cue "A Moment Like This," Clarkson's No. 1 single. Cue hankies. Cue bullet through the temple.
"Thousands upon thousands of people are trying to make it in this business," said an exasperated Cooper last Thursday. "They come to town and look for opportunity to get in front of labels. That's an everyday process. I don't think there's anything strange or unusual about this at all."
Representatives from American Idoland RCA couldn't be reached, presumably because they had better things to do. I, for one, do not blame them.

The Banking System: Commercial Banking - Operations
ByStephen D. Simpson, CFA
Retail Banking
Retail banking is the banking that almost every reader will find most familiar. Retail banking is the business of making consumer loans, mortgages and the like, taking deposits and offering products such as checking accounts and CDs. Retail banking generally requires significant investment in branch offices, as well as other customer service points of contact, like ATMs and bank tellers.
Retail banks frequently compete on convenience, the accessibility of branches and ATMs for example, cost such as(interest rates, and account service fees, or some combination of the two. Retail banks also attempt to market multiple services to customers by encouraging customers who have a checking account to also open a savings account, borrow through its mortgage loan office, transfer retirement accounts, and so on.
Business Banking
Business banking is not altogether that different than consumer retail banking; operations still revolve around collecting deposits, making loans and convincing customers to use other fee-generating services.
One of the primary differences is that business customers tend to have somewhat more sophisticated demands from their banks, often leaning on banks for assistance in managing their payables, receivables and other treasury functions. Business banking also tends to be less demanding in terms of branch networks and infrastructure, but more competitive in terms of rates and fees.
Private Banking
There is a shrinking number of independent financial institutions that focus exclusively on private banking, as it is increasingly conducted as a department of a larger bank. Private banking is a euphemism for banking and financial services offered to wealthy customers, typically those with more than $1 million of net worth.
In addition to standard bank service offerings, like checking and savings accounts and safe deposit boxes, private banks often offer a host of trust, tax and estate planning services. Perhaps not surprisingly, the bank secrecy laws of countries like Switzerland have made them attractive locations for conducting private banking. (For more, see How Do I Open A Swiss Bank Account And What Makes Them So Special?)
Investment Banking
Since the repeal of Glass-Steagall, the law that forced entities to separate commercial and investment banking activities after the Great Depression, many commercial banks have acquired investment banks. Investment banking is a very different business than commercial banking, but is nevertheless a major source of revenue and profits for many of the largest banks in the United States.
Investment banks specialize in underwriting securities (equity and/or debt), making markets for securities, trading for their own accounts and providing advisory services to corporate clients. Although underwriting derivatives can expose an investment bank to significant risks, as seen in the cases of Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers, investment banking is generally a high-margin, but volatile, enterprise.

Now containing the following Curator Approved content:
95 Glycoside Hydrolase (GH) Family pages,
5 Polysaccharide Lyase (PL) Family pages,
2 Auxiliary Activity (AA) Family pages,
2 Glycosyltransferase (GT) Family pages,
7 Carbohydrate Binding Module (CBM) Family pages,
21 Lexicon pages!
9 September 2014: 2-for-1 Back to School Special: With the start of the new academic year, we are happy to report that two new Polysaccharide Lyase Family pages have recently been completed and given Curator Approved status. In August, Naotake Konno and Shinya Fushinobu produced the Polysaccharide Lyase Family 20 page, which describes this small (currently, 18 member) group of bacterial and fungal beta-(1-4)-glucuronan-cleaving enzymes. And, on the 7th of this month, Sine Larsen and Leila LoLeggio composed the Polysaccharide Lyase Family 4 page. Currently, PL4 is only known to contain rhamnogalacturonan lyases involved in pectin degradation, notably including many plant sequences in addition to bacterial and fungal members. We thank these Authors and Responsible Curators for their contributions and encourage our readers to check out these new pages.
2 July 2014: More on the alpha-amylase clan: We are pleased to report that Stefan Janecek has made another key contribution to CAZypedia by completing the Glycoside Hydrolase Family 77 page today. GH77 contains enzymes variously known as amylomaltases, 4-α-glucanotransferases, or disproportionating enzymes (D-enzymes in plants), which catalyze (1-4)-to-(1-4) transglycosylation of alpha-glucan chains and form part of the starch/glycogen debranching system. Together with GH13 and GH70, GH77 constitutes Clan GH-H, a clan of alpha-glucan-specific enzymes united by a common (β/α)8 catalytic domain fold. Stefan is the founder and main organiser of ALAMY - the international symposia on the alpha-amylase enzyme family - and has been a key person in producing the GH13, GH70, GH77 pages in CAZypedia; we are especially grateful for all his hard work and expertise!
23 June 2014:
"LysM" domains in CAZypedia: The cohort of Carbohydrate Binding Module Families covered in CAZypedia continues to grow with the completion of the Carbohydrate Binding Module Family 50 by Takayuki Ohnuma and Toki Taira. CBM50 members are also known as LysM domains, which are found in a range of enzymes beyond glycoside hydrolases, including proteases, in which they are believed to facilitate targeting and degradation the bacterial cell wall.

With only a few camera issues to stomach and a raised eyebrow given to the level of difficulty (especially in later stages), Ecco's 25+ stages of fluid, gorgeous gameplay show it has the brawn to back up its beauty.
From the moment the title screens blinks on your television, to the time you finally force yourself to slap your dorsal fin on the "off" switch, you're bombarded with brilliance and visual splendor the likes we've haven't seen in ages.
From the first instant that this GD-ROM starts spinning until the final level is finished, Ecco's gorgeous graphics, amazing soundtrack, and unique premise will captivate players.
Playing "Ecco" is like transforming your room into a submersible underwater vehicle, with your tv screen being your window into the ocean depths.
It looks absolutely stunning, but for all but a minority, the game play doesn't match up to expectations.

In late June we showed you spy shots of the Mercedes-Benz SCL, what we believe will be Mercedes' answer to the Audi R8. It seems that the new Merc will be armed with a new weapon when it enters the fight - a lower curb weight.
Just Auto is reporting that Mercedes has plans to build the SL model out of aluminum, much like Aston Martin, Audi, Jaguar and Rolls-Royce have done with some of their models. Expected to use an aluminum spaceframe and body panels, the new SL should be at least 10 - 15% lighter than the current model, the weight of which ranges from 3,860 lbs. to 4,500 lbs. depending on what model and options are chosen.
Not wanting an interruption in SL production when the new aluminum structure is phased in, Mercedes is planning the super coupe SLC as a car that will use the spaceframe but be produced only in limited numbers. The idea is to make sure all the kinks are ironed out of the new production process before it's applied to the higher volume SL. Expect only about 3,000 to 4,000 SLC coupes to be produced, and you'll be able to pick one up around 2010, two years before the new all-aluminum SL debuts.
The SLC, however, will not share a body panel with the SL, which means it could even be the retro "gull-wing" coupe at which insiders have been hinting. We're also not sure if Mercedes will even continue to produce the SLC after the new SL arrives in 2012. At this point, there remains more questions than answers.

Cuba's unseemly showdown with the Ladies in White appears to be over — at least for now. After blocking their path for the past three weeks, Cuban authorities allowed the group to resume its weekly protest march today along Havana's Quinta Avenida. Cardinal Jaime Ortega, the island's highest-ranking Catholic official, told reporters that he had worked out an agreement with Cuban state security officials to allow the women to resume their low-key protest, at least through May.
The women are the wives and mothers of jailed government opponents who have been marching since 2003, when their loved ones were arrested in a political crackdown. And for seven years, it has been the only tolerated act of public protest against the Cuban government.
But when the Ladies upped the ante by staging daily protest marches around the city in March, the government pushed back, sending crowds of counter-demonstrators to berate and harass the women for three Sundays in a row, as foreign TV crews recorded the ugly spectacle. The government considers the women to be mercenaries in league with anti-Castro exile groups and U.S. officials.
Under the new agreement, the Ladies' supporters are not supposed to march with them, according to Cardinal Ortega. But some of the 12 women who participated in today's march were supporters, the group said. As usual, the women carried pink gladioluses and walked quietly in two-by-two formation, for a few blocks. Then they returned to stand in front of the Santa Rita cathedral to recite a prayer and chant "Libertdad!" (Freedom).
A few passing cars honked in support of the women, but most of the Cubans they passed on the street just stood and watched, neither joining nor condemning the women.

What are the pros? Easy to grow
What are the cons? None
Tansy is easy to grow here but must have slight shade from intense west sun. Works very well as insect repellent (flies, mosquitoes,ants,moths). Hang fresh bunches around doors in summer. Use dried leaves for use in storing winter clothes.

The short answer is yes, you can give your dog squash. However, it is best to cook the squash before feeding it to your K9 since they may have a hard time digesting raw vegetables.
Dogs, like many other carnivores, don't produce amylase in the same location as herbivores do. This is an enzyme that herbivores make in their the saliva glands. It breaks down carbs before they hit the digestive system. A dog's system is different since that enzyme doesn't enter the scene until much further along. This accounts for the different ways certain species use foods, and why they have different nutritional requirements.
While dogs can eat almost anything that a human can, they are carnivores and their digestive system is optimally built for meat consumption. Make sure that you gradually introduce veggies, such as squash, into your dog's diet by mixing them up with meat or poultry. You can also simply avoid giving them vegetables altogether, since they don't really have a need for them.
Can I Give My Dog Squash? Answer: Yes, cooked is OK
If you do give your dog squash you should make sure that it is cooked so they'll have an easier time digesting it. However, they aren't going to get the same nutritional benefit that humans get from eating squash, because they won't process it the same way.
Humans have several feet of large and small intestines that break down vegetables and pull the nutrients from them before the food exits. A dog, by contrast, will blow through the squash much more quickly, leaving little time for absorption.
Serving Suggestions for Squash
You can pour some homemade soup over rice, pasta, or their commercial dog food. In order to make sure your dog is getting all the recommended nutritional requirements, it is highly advisable that you continue to feed them store bought dog food 3 to 4 times a week.
Keep it Reasonable
Always remember that although your dog might want to eat anything that you hand them, under the table or put in their bowl, there are limits to what is safe for them to eat. Keep your dog from eating raisins and grapes, onions, garlic, spices (including salt), most nuts and all junk foods. Of course, you probably already know that.
Avocado in large quantities, alcohol, coffee, and chocolate may cause diarrhea, vomiting, and induce other illnesses as a reminder. Be sure to research those foods that you are unsure about. We have lots of information here, in addition to squash, that you can search for by keyword in the sidebar. Start at the homepage!
Becoming a Dog Chef
Learning to make canine-friendly meals can be a fun way for you to create a yummy treat for your dog. If you are going to test your hand at becoming a world-class dog chef, then soups are your best starting point. Homemade soups are fantastic for promoting collagen production, which is essential for healthy joints, bones and connective tissues.
However, be advised that trying to get your dog to eat his veggies by using canned soup is not really recommended due to the excessive amount of salt that these may contain which can only prove detrimental to dog health in the long run.
You can make some nutritious meals containing veggies, including with squash, if you are smart about it. Besides, putting a little bit of effort into the prep time may result in your dog being able to taste the love and enjoy being a good boy at dinner time.
Remember to be creative with your dishes. Don't always use the same ingredients. Your dog likes variety, too! This will especially be the case as his palate expands.
So don't throw your dog a bone or raw squash but rather use them to cook a delicious meal and say, "Bone Appétit!"
Squash & Bone Marrow
There are plenty of recipes out there that are specifically for dogs. One such recipe uses bone marrow and also includes squash. It's really a way to connect with your dog, rather than simply opening a bag and scooping out some kibble. Just don't be offended when they wolf down your meal in a matter of seconds, burp, and continue on their day.
So the final verdict is that while your dog doesn't necessarily need squash, it is well tolerated and not something that you'll be cleaning up later if you give it to them cooked.

So... I've been wanting to try out a powder foundation for quite some time now. I had no preference whether it was mineral or not, so when I stumbled into Sephora, I decided to head over to Laura Mercier, Lord knows why! I'm glad I did, however, because this mineral powder is really such a great product. I've tried a lot of drug store brands (cover girl, revlon, and maybelline) along with MAC's mineralize loose powder & studio fix, Pur Minerals 4 in 1, and Benefit's Get Even, and I truly have never been happy with how my skin looks. I was apprehensive at first when the SA matched me to classic beige, I'm a NC 37 for reference, but the color came on quite nicely! I've been wearing it for the past week now and it hasn't broken me out, it has stayed on through out the day, and doesn't create a mask all over my face. It's a "my skin but better" type of powder... and yes it is quite pricey, but it'll probably save you more money in the long run, by purchasing a quality product. The next thing up on the list to buy now is a Tinted moisturizer, which I believe LM is mostly known for... so theres my 10 cents =]
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
As an artist myself, I was attracted to the concept behind Laura Mercier products. I've used the oil-free liquid foundation, foundation powder, pressed mineral foundation and the loose. After years of experimenting and mixing & matching, I'm making the Loose Mineral Powder my everyday foundation. It provides buildable coverage without causing breakouts (even during pregnancy). It seems to melt into your skin as the day progresses. It does make your pores look enlarged but using the primer does help (though I still haven't decided which primer I prefer: the mineral loose primer or the mineral liquid). I'm saving the mineral pressed powder for touch-ups only as I found it looked and felt heavier on my skin.
The texture of this powder is absolutely AMAZING...I've found that to be the case with all of the LM powders that I've tried - they just feel like pure silk. There's really no comparison between this and some of the other mineral foundations I've tried (Bare Minerals/Escentuals; Everyday Minerals; Mineral Basics, etc.). The other pro is the container - it's very sturdy, and has a special top over the sifter to keep the powder from going everywhere if it isn't stored right-side up.
Unfortunately, Laura Mercier doesn't offer a color that's pale enough and that has the correct undertones for my super pale skin. It's a shame too, because this truly is an exquisitely smooth powder.
The only other issue I had with this powder is that some of the shades contain Bismuth, which is a big no-no for my skin...I think that was part of the reason that Bare Minerals killed my skin the way it did. Back when I purchased this (mid-2009), I seem to remember reading on the LM website that all of the shades contained Bismuth...I just went and checked (as I got ready to write this review), and now it only lists Bismuth as an ingredient in the Natural Beige and Soft Porcelain shades. For all of the other shades, it simply says "May Contain Bismuth." Not sure how they can really get away with that, but buy at your own risk if you have Bismuth sensitivities.
If you're looking for mineral makeup that doesn't contain Bismuth, try out Meow Cosmetics (my absolute HG powder foundation!!)...there are a few other companies that don't use Bismuth (Aromaleigh, Mineral Hygienics, Everyday Minerals, etc.), but unfortunately they didn't work for my skin for various reasons.
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
this is the best mineral foundation ever - it keeps my face out of oil and gives great great GREAT coverage! and looks very natural!!! i love this so much i just ordered 4th one.
Overall a good powder foundation. I've been using EM in medium tan original glo for 2 years now and it's great but got bored with it. So I tried this in honey and makes my skin glow but just like the reviewer said below me, I too find my face looking a bit grey but covers up with some bronzer. I do find my face a bit greasy too that's why I took a lippie off. I'll use this container out but won't repurchase because I don't think the colors match me perfect. EDIT: gave me a couple of "under the skin" pimples, I think it's the bismuth. Returned it!
After trying BE (too cakey), EM (I like this, but doesn't cover as well as LM), and Alima (couldn't get a good color match)... I like LM the best. I was lucky enough to be able to get this baby free from a swap and it matched my skin nicely. Not a perfect match, but good enough. (Don't remember the color, I think it's neutral, and I am NC25-30). Anyway, I find that the coverage, smoothness, and application of this is far superior to any other MMU I have tried. It gives my face a nice glow to it w/o looking too cakey (even though I pile it on). It really covers well, but sometimes I find my face looks a little grey (probably not a perfect color match), nothing a little blush can't help with. I know LM products are super expensive, but well worth the money, esp. with this product b/c it's gonna last you a long time. I still have a lot left, granted I don't use it everyday, but I think it'll last me for years. Definitely repurchase!
Update 9/7/10
I think LM is clogging up my pores! I have only been getting clogged pores around my nose/cheek area and I suspect it's due to LM. I noticed that although this covers very well, it makes me super shiny and oily by mid afternoon, which is what BE used to do. I have stopped using it on a daily basis and have switched to EVM, which makes me less greasy and feels lighter on my skin. Bummer!
I love this product. Having never used mineral makeup before, I was hesitant to try when the Sephora SA suggested it. But when she applied it, it looked like a second skin. I've got combo skin with some flakey dry patches (from retinoid use) and this just glides over them with ease. It doesn't sit in my lines and lasts all day. It covers very well. There is a slight glow that looks very natural. Bought the kit with the primer, brush etc. I will definitely repurchase. For ref, I'm NW20 and bought the kit in real sand.
I don't know why I waited so long to review this product being that I have been using for almost a year and still have a good amount left. I have pretty even toned skin with some minor acne and scarring, and feel that this does a pretty good job at giving me good coverage without the heavy feel of makeup. Feels great on my skin and does not break me out. I love that I can wear it in the summer and winter as well with the spf 15. I apply with the Ecotools kabuki brush and have really great results. The only downside that I can think of is that the product does come off a little bit on my coat or clothes (collars). Other than that, I will continue to purchase.
EDIT 1/19/11: Although I still do really like this product, I noticed that it is not quite an exact match to my skin tone, and unfortunately there is not much of a color selection. When this product finally finished (I think it was about a year and a half if not two!!) I have purchased Clinique's mineral makeup (Superbalanced powder makeup in 05 Natural) which I have come to really love and is an exact match!

I have this in Tender Rose & have repurchased. This is the shade for those who are very fair: I tried the Porcelain and it is markedly lighter but also very, very shiny, much shinier than the other shades. Tender Rose has a much more natural finish and works for me & I always take the palest shade in anything :-) IMO better quality than Bare Esc classic, although I do like the new matte BE in Fair.
Must rec LM's mineral foundation primer too - it makes a big difference.
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Edit: So I have to edit my original review and take off two lippies. This does not go on easily and has no lasting power even with primer. I will not repurchase :(
So far I am loving this! Bought this based on reviews here (thank you) and it is way more natural looking than any other MM I have tried. I just finished up some Everyday Minerals, and I always felt like it gave me blackheads. So far LM seems to keep oil at bay fairly well. Will update at a later date if that changes. Price seems steep but a little goes a long way. :)

Meganulon (メガヌロン?, Meganuron), also known as Meganula (メガニューラ?, Meganyūra) are giant Mesozoic insect kaiju created by Toho, that first appeared in the 1956 Toho film, Rodan.
The Meganulons' name comes from Meganeura, a species of extinct dragonflies from the Carboniferous period approximately 300 million years ago.
Presumably, the Meganulons, like Rodan, are from the Cretaceous Period. They were awakened by mining operations in Kitamatsu village, Kumamoto Prefecture.
Showa Series
RodanThe Meganulon were a race of prehistoric insects in the movie Rodan. They were first awakened during a mining operation, and attacked and ate a few trapped miners. They escaped the mine and attacked a nearby village. A team was sent into the mine to exterminate the Meganulons. Shigeru, a member of the team, found an egg in the cave which hatched into Rodan. Rodan ate the Meganulons in the cave until it had enough strength to fly away.
Millennium Series
Godzilla vs. MegaguirusThe Meganulon were prehistoric insects that were released into the modern world through a black hole experiment. A giant dragonfly flew through a black hole and laid an egg in the forest, which was discovered and taken home by a young boy. The boy dumped the egg into the sewers of Tokyo when it started to ooze. The egg hatched into several Meganulons, which flooded the city and attacked and killed several citizens before molting into Meganula.
MeganulaThe Meganula (メガニューラ?, Meganyūra) were the second form of the Meganulon. They attacked Godzilla to steal his energy for their queen. Godzilla managed to kill most of the Meganula, but some escaped with his energy. They flew to Tokyo and gave the energy to Megaguirus, dying in the process.
Godzilla: Rulers of Earth
In Rulers of Earth #17, Lucy Casprell and her team travel to Brazil, where a large number of Meganulon eggs have been uncovered in a nearby rainforest. As Lucy and her team investigate the eggs, a claw emerges from one of the eggs.
Godzilla: Cataclysm
In Godzilla: Cataclysm #3, the Meganula arrive in the refugees' village along with Megaguirus in order to feed on Biollante, who is still regenerating from her battle with Godzilla. Mothra arrives to protect Biollante and battles Megaguirus. The Meganula attempt to swarm and bite Mothra, but are knocked away by her wings.
Meganulon's chirps were erroneously used for Mothra Larva's cry in the Japanese Mothra vs. Godzilla trailer.

JOHANNESBURG (AP) - The defense says it's done presenting its case in the murder trial of Olympic runner Oscar Pistorius, who's on trial for the Valentine's Day 2013 killing of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.
Pistorius says he killed Steenkamp by mistake, thinking she was an intruder when he fired a gun through a closed bathroom door in his home.
The prosecution says Pistorius shot Steenkamp following an argument.
