A senior member of Malaysia's ruling party has been suspended for three years after making racist remarks about the country's Chinese community.
At a press conference last month Ahmad Ismail, a politician from the United Malays National Organisation (Umno), described Malaysia's ethnic Chinese minority as "squatters" and warned them not to become "like the Jews in America".
His comments have rekindled the sensitive issue of race relations in Malaysia, reviving memories of deadly inter-ethnics riots in the 1960s and threatening to weaken the government's grip on power.
With the row escalating Umno, led by Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, Malaysia's prime minister, suspended Ahmad's membership on Wednesday and barred him from holding any political posts for three years as punishment for "stoking racial tensions".
Abdullah said Ahmad's comments had "caused much anger and protest", including from members of his governing Barisan Nasional coalition.
The censure came after Chinese-based parties in the coalition threatened to reconsider their membership of the alliance.
On Thursday Malaysia's armed forces chief warned that "stern action must be taken to prevent" racial conflicts.
But despite the ban, and being told to apologise by Umno, Ahmad remained defiant, telling reporters: "I will not retract, I made no mistake, I will not apologise."
"I will be staying with Umno, which is my party... Make no mistake, I will make a comeback," he said.
The controversy comes at a time when a loose opposition coalition led by Anwar Ibrahim, the former deputy prime minister, is threatening to unseat the government.
Abdullah is also facing pressure from several top Umno leaders who want him to step down now, instead of 2010 as per his succession plan.
The row has highlighted simmering tensions between majority Muslim Malays and Malaysia's ethnic Chinese and Indian minorities, and raised fears of a split in the coalition of race-based parties which has ruled Malaysia for half a century.
Ethnic Malays dominate politics in Malaysia while ethnic Chinese are prominent in business.
Ahmad's remarks were reportedly made during campaigning in last month's by-election in the northern state of Penang, where he said there was a limit to the patience of the Malays and Muslims.
"Do not push us to the wall, as when we turn back we will be forced to push the Chinese in the interests of our own survival," he said.
"The Chinese should not try to be like the Jews in America - it is not enough they control the economy, now they want political control."
The statement was widely reported in Chinese-language newspapers and posted on the website of the Malaysian Chinese Association, the main Chinese-based party in the ruling coalition.
Koh Tsu Koon, the leader of Gerakan, another Chinese-majority party, said Umno's decision to suspend Ahmad was "a step in the right direction".
"We hope this will serve as deterrent against similar irresponsible and insensitive actions," said Koh, who was chief minister of Penang before losing it to the opposition in the March general elections.

The way Izzy imagined, it was like this:
It was the type of house that most would avoid. The lawn grown wild, paint chipped off, shutters falling loose, and inhabited by three elderly sisters. The thunder god, Zeus climbed up to the porch, avoiding a broken step, and rang the bell. It didn't work, of course, so he knocked. He could see the piles of yarn heaped against the inside of the windows, shutting out the world. At last, he could hear one of the sisters make her way to him from within. The door creaked open.
He had more to fear from the sisters than most, but the time had come when he couldn't avoid seeing them any longer. There were too many protests and he was expected, as president of the Mt Olympus Neighborhood Association, to confront issues, such as they had with them. Being president was not all parades and beauty pageants; you should know. He's always understood that, which accounts for his long reign, going on, what, three thousand years.
The thunder god's heart tripped a little when he saw a callused hand reach by the jam. Yet, when the door swung open it revealed, not an old crone, but a young woman, pregnant about nine months.
"By Jove, it's you," she said, forcing as warm a smile as she could manage. They had a long and close association, and rivalry, back in the old days. They'd fallen out of touch, however. She hadn't heard that he preferred again to go by Zeus.
"I'm here on official business of the neighborhood association," he boomed, loud enough to substitute bombast for genuine supremacy.
"Come in then. My sisters are in the back." She extinguished her smile with a callous scowl.
"I hope you don't mind the mess," she said.
"As a matter of fact, Chloe, I do mind the mess," he rumbled. "That's why I'm here. There've been many complaints."
She didn't say a word in reply, but led him down a narrow channel between piles of yarn to the back of the house where the sisters had a workshop. The breeze from their passage and Zeus' rumbling stirred up clouds of dust that set him to sneezing. Great hurricanes hurried out of his nose, only to stir up more dust, resulting in more sneezing. The god's mighty blasts might've brought the whole house down, solving the neighborhood's problem, only the piles of yarn must've held it up.
"Excuse me," he sniffed. "Do you have a tissue?"
"No, but you can blow your nose on this," she said as she handed him a skein of yarn.
He emptied his nose and Chloe took a seat by an old spinning wheel and got it turning. As she produced a fiber, a second sister cut it at varying, arbitrary lengths and a third gathered up each strand into a skein and threw it on a pile
"Chloe, Morticia, Moira," he declared. "I'm here on official …"
"Yes, we heard. Haven't we paid our dues?"
"It's not about that. There've been complaints."
"There are always complaints," said Morticia as she snipped with her scissors. "We've learned to ignore them and do what we think best."
"Yes, well, there have been complaints, and I happen to agree with them."
"Go on."
"Well, for one, you're violating a zoning ordinance by having a, eh, factory in the middle of a residential area."
Moira exclaimed, "Everyone agrees they need our services, but no one wants us in their backyard. Well, we've got to be somewhere."
Chloe added, "We've been doing this for an eternity and we've been doing it right here. While you're retired, we still have work to do. More work than ever, in fact. There are more people than ever and someone has to do what we do."
"You don't have to tell me," The Cloud Gatherer conceded, "there's still a need for fate."
They had agreed, when mortals entered the scene, that someone had to decide when a life should end. Each mortal couldn't do it for his or her self, they'd all want their lives to go on forever, like the gods', and there wouldn't be any room for new people. So Morticia decides. Then, every woman wants a baby, but not everyone can have one. Furthermore, each baby can't decide what his or her temperament is going to be like because they're born with their temperament, so Chloe decides. Moira is needed because not everyone can be born in the best places, to the best parents, so she decides their lot in life.
"So, you see," Chloe continued. "This factory, as you call it, is necessary, whereas your retirement community is not."
It stung, being superfluous. It seemed that everyone, except for some right-wingers and terrorists, had turned away from the gods. It bothered all the divine on Mt Olympus that they were forced into an early retirement and they knew that The Fate Sisters were behind it.
Zeus admitted, "We're all probably a little jealous of you, but seeing as though you have so much work, couldn't you at least relocate? It's clear you're running out of room in this facility. You could move to larger, more modern quarters."
"We can't afford to," said Moira. "We have a lot of work, but no one pays us anything anymore. No one believes in The Fates and we don't get any bribes or reverence. Everyone believes in Free Will, Economic Determinism, Karma, or Grace. They collect the tributes, but we still have to do the work. Go see Genetics; they have more than enough money to fund our expansion. Then we'll leave your retirement community."
Being the supreme father of the gods, he knew he wouldn't get anywhere with Genetics.
He said, "If you have to stay here, at least clean it up. I'll grant that you don't make much noise and you don't pollute the environment, but this place is a firetrap. Look at the mess you make."
"Fate is messy," said Chloe. "We can't help that."
Fate was messy and had created untold suffering, for which people then blamed the gods. The neighborhood association wouldn't let Zeus rest until he went to persuade the sisters to take care of the suffering so they could go back to enjoying their retirement.
"Just clean it up as you go. Go through these piles, sort it all out, and make some order out of it. Take up knitting."
"It wouldn't be good for us to get too close to our work," she explained. "We can do what we do only because we are impersonal and don't know these people."
The Fate Sisters have never been like the other Olympic gods. Inhuman, impersonal, inaccessible, and compassionless, they've been more a machine than spirit, more a bureaucracy than deity. They've often been tempted, but they've never been worshipped. They never could be worshipped, for they are heartless officials, unmindful of the consequences of their actions.
"In that case, get someone else to do it. Hire a janitor," Zeus looked around at the mess, "or a whole crew of janitors."
"I know what we can do," said Moira. "I've been wondering what to do with this pile; none of them seem to fit in anywhere." She pulled a fragile length of fiber from that pile and held it up. "This one will be a janitor."
"That piece of string?" he asked. "What can that do?"
"It doesn't matter what he or she is made of. A person will do anything, put in the right circumstances."
And so, thought Izzy, the Fates appointed janitors to take care of people and their suffering and get the gods off the hook. Maybe he'd be one of them.

Late Summer and Ministry
While I was in Belarus I got sick. I have asked the Lord why but I do know that God allowed this trial in my life. After several months of illness I am on the mend. I had hoped to return to full-time ministry when I got home from the trip. I was offered a place to serve in Clarkston with refugees. I only had a few days notice to prepare before the new mission at the apartment opened. I was so excited but I was so sick! I couldn't imagine why God wasn't letting me get well so I could do this! I struggled the entire week with my illness and no peace that I would be physically able to take this program on the next Monday. There was another couple who was interested in this apartment complex. That doesn't happen very often! I called Mark and told him that I was not in peace about the next week. I reminded him of (and of course he knew)the struggles I was having physically since being in Belarus. We prayed and Mark made the call to let the other couple take the complex. I think that was one of the hardest things I have ever done! So I am anxiously waiting on God for my new full-time missions opportunity. Waiting is difficult especially when my whole heart's desire is to serve Him! In the meantime I continue to visit with some of the families at The Falls to give them encouragement and to share God's love.

Whats Up
Some of you may wonder what I have been up to recently. My husband and I led a group of 10 from our church to Belarus in July. It was a great and successful mission trip with over 200 salvations! We went to the southern Belarus city of Luninets where we worked with Pastor Nicholi and his new church plant. Then we went to another city Mikashevichy and worked with Pastor Dmitriy and his church. Our main purpose was children's ministry but we also participated in home visitations in the afternoon and evening where we could share our faith with families in the cities. It was amazing. One of my special things was meeting Alena in her home one night and then being invited back the next night. She cooked me an entire meal. I was able to share my faith with her. She was so excited when we visited her the 1st night. She found out that I had ministered in Ukraine and she was Ukrainian. I sang a few Ukrainian hymns to her. The last night she joined in singing with me. Isn't God good!! The Lord brought to my mind all the Ukrainian that I needed just for Alena.

Feliz Cumpleanos
Even though I am seeking a new missions assignment I am keeping quite busy with families that I serve and preparation for our Belarus trip in July. This weekend I attended the birthday party of my sweet friend, a young Mother, who I have known for about 4 years. It was a wonderful evening of fellowship with my Spanish speaking friends.

Hustle and Bustle
Life is never dull. Lately with all the preparation for our upcoming Belarus trip I have found myself so busy with all of the hustle and bustle that it takes to take a group of people to a new country. Check out our blog for Belarus at the link below. God is working. One of our precious Mom's from the Falls gave birth to a precious baby girl. She was born with a congenital heart defect. Praise the Lord, she underwent a successful surgery at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and is now home with her family!! Mark and I have been praying for God's direction in regards to mission work here in Atlanta. We have interviewed with a few mission agencies and I can definitely say that God has led both of us to cross one of them off of our list. There are so many ministry/mission opportunities which we could become involved in but I believe that God has the perfect spot for us where we can serve.

NAMB Prayer and Praise
Yesterday Mark and I had the opportunity to be included in the SEND North America Celebration and Call to Prayer. We had a great time hearing from Pastors and New Church Planters as they shared the need for evangelism in North America and specifically in Atlanta. Atlanta, Georgia, my hometown and the city of my birth, is an UNREACHED city. 70% of the population in suburban Atlanta are unchurched and 92% of the population inside of I-285 are unchurched. Staggering statistics in the "Bible Belt." Atlanta is now one of the cities in our country with the greatest amount of lost people- people who do not profess Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior! Please pray for Our City of Atlanta, Ga and for church planters, pastors, and missionaries as we work in this city to tell others about Jesus.

Printable Air Hockey Table Rules
Air hockey is a great game that is easy to learn and fun for the whole family. It is easy to jump right in witha couple of paddles and start smashing and crashing around but there are basic rules to the game that should be adhered to for maximum enjoyment and fair play.
The rules listed below are more of a guideline and are not carved in stone. If you want the complete official US Air Hockey Association Rules (USAA) then visit here.
You can always make up your own house rules of course, but be sure to establish them beforehand and not as you go along. Not doing so never ends up well with an argument almost guaranteed to break out.
As well, the size of the playing surface can affect how the game should be played. Check out the Ultimate Buyers Guide to Air Hockey Tables here to discover the best gaming table for your needs.
Simple USAA Rules
- Player may stand anywhere around the air hockey table on his/her side of the centerline. He/she may not stand past the line.
- Only one puck can be used at a given moment.
- The first player to score seven goals wins.
- The puck may be struck with any part of the mallet except the bottom surface.
- A "palming" foul occurs when any part of a player's hand, arm, body, or clothes touches the puck.
- The puck must drop and remain in the goal for the goal to count. The player's opponent receives one point for a goal scored, unless the offensive player committed a foul during or just before making the shot.
- The puck cannot be "topped" by raising the mallet or pusher and holding it on the top of the puck to slow or stop it while it on the table. This cannot be done at any time, whether before a serve or during play. Violation constitutes a foul. However, using the mallet to bring an airborne puck to the table or toward the opponent's goal is not a topping violation no matter which side or edge of the puck is contacted.
- A player may play with only one air hockey mallet on the playing surface at one time. Violation results in a foul.
- A player has seven seconds to return a shot that crosses the centerline. The seven seconds begin as soon as the puck enters and remains on that player's side of the centerline. Violation results in a foul.
- When the puck is in contact with any part of the centerline, either player may strike the puck.
- The player who is scored upon receives possession of the puck for the next serve.
- A player must make a clear indication of a time-out so that the opponent understands the player's intention to stop play.
- When a player is scored upon, they have 10 seconds to remove the puck from the goal and place it in play. The 10 seconds start as soon as the puck has fallen completely through the goal and is available for the player to place into play. This rule is suspended during the course of a time-out.
- A player may hand-serve the puck (use their hand to set the puck in front of his/her mallet) only after he/she has been scored upon.
- Each player may take one time-out per game. The time-out can't be longer than 10 seconds.
- A player may exercise their time-out only when the puck is in their possession or not in play.
- After each game, players swap sides of the air hockey table.
In the end, it's all about having fun. Whether you are using the official USAA rules or making up some of your own, be sure to honour them. Poor sportsmanship is a sure fire way to ruin a great afternoon of air hockey fun.
Happy gaming!

oh trust me my eyes are open.
there's more than one way to skin a cat.
i'm not against guns at all. i live in alabama. every person here owns guns. i have like 20 of them at my house.
i just don't carry a gun on my side all of the time.
Last year I was at a busy intersection in Decatur GA (I had stopped for a red light) when I witnessed a pedestrian pull out a gun and point it at the Isuzu NPR across the busy intersection and made the Hispanic grew get out of the truck so that he could jack it.. And he did!! He took off with that landscape truck like it was his!! Right in the middle of a very busy intersection with sh*t loads of people watching!!! I was flabbergasted!! The light had turned green and I still couldn't drive off because I was in shock that someone was bold enough to do something like that!!
If that was me I would have gotten off the truck and turned around and had my Glock in the back of his head!

let's say you had a gun. as soon as you jumped out of the truck he would see you had a gun and fire on you before you could fire at him. he has the advantage since his gun is already pulled first.
And if I was in that situation, I wouldn't have had my gun out as I got out of the truck so he could see it... I would have gotten out with my gun concealed, and as soon as he gave me his back and attempted to get into the truck, I would have pulled mine out..
Please don't call names.. If anything, you're dumb.. You're dumb for saying that a thief/robber wouldn't steal in front of you and that he would avoid confrontation (WRONG)! And you're also dumb for thinking that someone would attempt to pull their gun out in front of the robber who already has theirs drawn.. Wrong again, dummy.

Very ugly situation. If one was situationally aware of a man approaching the truck, now is the time to have a gun drawn and ready. A stranger approaching my truck at an intersection would be cause for concern. You could make a strong argument that you shot him when he pulled his weapon "because you feared for your life". If you got out of the vehicle, didn't get shot, or shot at. And then shot the car jacker in the back of his head, now your in a very tough place to legally defend yourself. You can defend yourself (and in some states your property) but you can't shoot a fleeing criminal. That's where manslaughter/ murder2 comes in.
And Jason, you sound painfully ignorant. Good luck.

Hey our constitution guarantees us the right to bear arms, and I'm dang sure going to bear an arm when I'm riding around with $10,000 sitting on my trailer. They would have to shoot me or be shot before they get my stuff!
I honestly wouldnt want to have to do that, but I'm not going to risk what I've worked my whole life for to be stolen from me.
My set up:
-2007 Chevy 2500hd 8.1l 4x4
-7x18 enclosed trailer
-Grasshopper front mount 61", gravely 52"
-36" Gravely Walkbehind, 21" exmark push mower
-Stihl everything
hey more power to you guys. i hope you shoot all the bad guys. i don't like them either. i don't live in a high crime area though like some of you. a smart cirminal is never gonna turn his back on you. he's gonna hold you at gunpoint the whole time while facing you. he would get into the truck facing out towards you still pointing the gun at you. really he wouldn't allow you to be anywhere near the front door of the truck as he was getting in. he would make you get on the ground behind the truck or something. if you didn't he would shoot you for not doing what he said. he doesn't care. he's already out of his mind. he has nothing to lose.
then again some would act like a potential customer acting all nice and say hey can you roll down the window i need to talk to you about my yard. soon as you did he would shoot you and everyone in the truck and then pull you all out and take off. what would you do then?
as for them stealing stuff from me? they can have it. it's not worth getting shot over. that's why i have insurance. i don't pay for it for nothing. it would be kind of nice to actually use it for something for once and get brand new equipment or a brand new truck. i've never made a claim in my whole life on anything. so basically i've been paying for insurance for over 20 years for nothing. alot of wasted money if you ask me.
i'm not ignorant i just live in part of the world where most people are still nice and treat others how they would like to be treated.

In today's global, fast changing business environment leaders have to work through challenging business dynamics and tensions as they strive for business growth. Tensions include the complexity of managing global and local needs; balancing risk management and innovation; and juggling long term strategy and short term results...to name a few.
The best way to develop solutions to these business conundrums is to harness the people power of the organisation and collaborate effectively.
It is no longer the role of a leader to sit in a dark room and figure out how to do all of this alone.
Meeting Magic supports leaders who want to engage and inspire their teams by working truly collaboratively in meetings of all types. We do this by working in partnership through meeting consultancy, facilitation (face-to-face and virtual) and training. We have 15 years experience of working with inspired and inspiring leaders around the world in organisations that include Mars, Microsoft, Pepsico, L'Oreal and Pfizer.

Florida TaxWatch is supported by voluntary, tax-deductible donations and private grants, and does not accept government funding. Donations provide a solid, lasting foundation that has enabled Florida TaxWatch to bring about a more effective, responsive government that is more accountable to, and productive for, the citizens it serves since 1979.

I cannot think of a better time in the storied history of this organization to take the gavel as Chairman than right now. Over the past 33 years, TaxWatch has been a constant, building institutional knowledge and keeping a watchful eye on government on behalf of Florida taxpayers.
In the coming years, Florida TaxWatch will explore the most effective ways to ensure sound fiscal and economic policy at the local level, increase our work educating taxpayers on how to engage with and understand their governments, and endeavor to promote productivity among public employees at more than just the state level.
Any time that TaxWatch speaks, policymakers and those in the seats of power listen, and I am excited that my term as Chairman will see TaxWatch lead on issues that have long-needed our voice.
To our supporters, thank you. We could not do this work without you, and to those new to Florida TaxWatch, I hope that you will learn about the organization, ask us questions if you have any, and I am confident that you will come to appreciate the value of Florida TaxWatch as I have.
Florida TaxWatch has succeeded for more than a third of a century because we have stayed true to what the organization was intended to be: a highly-constructive, credible, independent government watchdog, guidedog, birddog, and eyes and ears for the taxpayers under the guidance of our extraordinary statesmen-leaders.
We have maintained the same values from day one:
Integrity, Productivity, Accountability, Independence, and Quality Research.
One of the things that I am most proud of is how TaxWatch has grown to meet the challenges that face Florida's taxpayers without losing sight of who we are. We often hear about "mission creep" in government agencies, but our governments are not alone. In the private sector, growth and expansion often lead to substantive changes in the fabric of an organization, and in the nonprofit world, this can be disastrous.
TaxWatch, however, has embraced growth in the right direction; always to strengthen, to add capacity, keeping the core mission of TaxWatch, and the vision of our founders, as our guiding star.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help small men by tearing down big men. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatreds. You cannot establish security on borrowed money. You cannot establish character and courage by taking away a man's initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.
—From the pen of Reverend William John Henry Boetcker (1873-1962) and often attributed to Abraham Lincoln

I really
liked this book. It was interesting reading the story
through three different perspectives of three very different
girls. The idea of revenge was really appealing and
interesting. It was a very fast read despite being over 300
pages. Once I started reading, I wasn't able to stop. I
would recommend this book to anyone who likes a hint of
mystery in their books and wants to feed their inner evil

What Is ECM?
ECM is an abbreviation for electronic countermeasures, one of the four major kinds of electronic warfare in EVE, and is sometimes abbreviated as ewar. It is the most popular form of electronic warfare for PVP in EVE. It enjoys this popularity because when used correctly, it always makes a significant difference in battles. Other kinds of electronic warfare often have too narrow a target group or are not effective enough to enjoy such widespread use.
How it works: Each mid-slot ECM module has a percentile chance of succeeding at jamming a target, based on what kind of ECM module you are using, what kind of ship you are flying, and the sensor strength of the target. Sensor strength is a special value that each ship in has, that determines how resistant that ship is to being jammed. Sensor strength can be augmented by defensive modules. There are different kinds of ECM modules, including a group that specializes in jamming each of the four races in EVE, and two kinds with more general applicability.
Newer players often choose ECM modules because they can level the playing field with more skilled players by keeping those player's ships jammed and unable to function during battles. Nothing is more frustrating than being jammed for an entire fight. It's like being a spectator, except there's a good chance of getting blown up.
There's a certain delicious schadenfreude to using a month-old character to electronically castrate a four-year veteran of EVE, and I recommend ECM to any newer player seeking to get his feet wet with PVP.
What Ships Use ECM?
Because ECM is so powerful, it is balanced to only be effective when used by ship that is specialized for that purpose. All ECM ships are Caldari. This is because each race specializes in a kind of electronic warfare, and Caldari luck out with the best kind.
There are several ECM-using ships that are relatively easy to train into: the Griffin frigate, the Blackbird cruiser, and the Scorpion battleship. Tech two ECM ships require more advanced skills to use. They are: the Kitsune electronic attack frigate, the Falcon recon cruiser, and the Rook recon cruiser.
The blackbird is recommended as the most balanced, accessible ECM-using ship. Flying a blackbird will give you a good idea of what ECM is like, without breaking the bank or putzing around in an all-too-fragile frigate.
Help, I'm Jammed!
When a ship is jammed, it unlocks any targets that it has previously acquired, and cannot lock new targets until the jam wears off. Jams normally elapse after twenty seconds, but ECM modules can continue to be used against a jammed ship, potentially reseting the jam timer so that the targeted ship will need to wait another twenty seconds before it is able to lock again.
Even if they are able to function somewhat while jammed, the vast majority of ships lose the greater part of their effectiveness when jammed. This is why ECM is so amazing.
There are six basic kinds of ECM. All are mid-slot modules. The first two kinds are Multispectral ECM and ECM Burst.
Multispectral ECM: Multispectrals are not specialized in jamming any particular race. They have a mediocre chance of jamming any particular ship, but are better than using the wrong kind of ECM against a ship. Multispectral ECM is usually eschewed in favor of the more specialized varieties. This is because it is better to have a good chance of keeping two ships of the right race jammed, than to futz around with only possibly jamming a given ship. ECM ships will sometimes fit a single multispectral as a contingency, though this is a very real performance trade-off over a racial ECM variety.
ECM Burst: ECM burst modules have a very high chance of jamming ships, but only do so in a 6500 meter radius. They also jam without distinguishing friend from foe, potentially jamming nearby allies. On the plus side, they are able to function even while the ship using them is jammed. These are the one ECM module that is powerful enough to be used with ships that are not specialized in ECM. Unfortunately, ECM bursts are notoriously capacitor-intensive, making them unsuitable for use on frigates and many cruisers. Because of their limiting range and the high amounts of capacitor required to use them, these are the least common variety of ECM.
The other four kinds of ECM are each specialized in jamming a particular race. Against that race they have a very high chance of effectiveness, but are almost useless against the other races. The naming scheme for these jammers is somewhat confusing. For example, the jammers used against Amarr ships are found in the market browser under "radar jammers" because Amarr use radar for their sensors. But the actual modules in that category are named with variations of "White Noise". The races, their ECM category, and the associated modules are shown below.
Amarr: Radar ECM, White Noise modules.
Caldari: Gravimetric ECM, Spatial Destabilizer modules.
Gallente: Magnetometric ECM, Ion Field modules.
Minmatar: Ladar ECM, Phase Inversion modules.
These jammers have a much higher chance of jamming their particular race, but are almost useless against other races. The module images are color coded by race to make them easier to keep track of in-game. When a ship is locked, a small icon appears along the upper edge of the screen. That icon is color-coded according to the race of the locked ship. With a little bit of practice, players shouldn't have too much trouble matching the correct ECM variety to targets.

Miscellaneous Thoughts »
It was frustrated for some BlackBerry users to see that the PlayBook received a little change in keyboard layout. This was mainly with the caps key (aA) and symbols key (123 sym) being switched around. CrackBerry put a side by side comparison of the BlackBerry Torch 9800 and BlackBerry Torch 9810, showing that BlackBerry 7 OS gets the same layout as the PlayBook. We also notice the spaces between the keys are a bit more spaced out and no longer round edged keys.
OS Updates »
Surprisingly AT&T has picked up OS 126.96.36.1990 officially for the BlackBerry Torch 9800. We're used to seeing the OS builds come out way late with AT&T, but they came through well right now bringing a pretty stable OS to the table. You can download it officially using the link below.

Good find Kal!
OS Updates »
Originally OS 126.96.36.1990 was a leaked OS with no carrier attached, and now it looks like carriers are starting to pick it up. Sprint isn't the first, but they've got it officially available for the BlackBerry Bold 9650. As far as the leaked builds of .600 go, it seems to work a lot more stable than other builds. So if you have a 9650 on hand, give it a try.

Thanks ecivon for the tip!
General News »
The 2011 leaked roadmap for BlackBerry does infact show that BlackBerry OS 6.1 is due by May. In yesterday's RIM Q4 fiscal 2011 earnings call mentioned BlackBerry OS 6.1 being a major upgrade and that it will be officially rolling out this spring. So we got a glimpse of it in the roadmap, and now the affirmative directly from RIM.
OS Updates »
This isn't huge news, as this 126.96.36.1998 has become really popular when it comes to official BlackBerry 6 builds. I personally don't like it, but I am aware that there's a crowd out there who only sticks to official releases. I noticed on my BlackBerry Bold 9780 that OS 188.8.131.528 was officially available to download. I'm not claiming this just released, but it had to be recent enough as the wireless update got pushed my way.
So check out Wireless Update in your options menu, or click the link below to download directly from T-Mobile USA.

Leaked Content, OS Updates »
The BlackBerry Bold 9700 follows right behind the Torch today as far as leaks go. This is OS 126.96.36.1999 for the BlackBerry Bold 9700, the highest version OS leak we've seen yet. I hope we get some more .499's for other devices as well, but I guess the Bold 9700 deserves it with all the memory leaks its been having with 6.0. Here's a few download links to grab a copy from:
Source: N4BB
OS Updates »
First BGR got a hat tip about OS 6.0 being available for T-Mobile BlackBerry Bold 9700 users. Then Kal let me know that the update was available when he connected to Desktop Manager. So it's currently being pushed out for now, but remains unannounced from T-Mobile as of now. There is no OTA update in place yet, but I'm sure it will be up momentarily. Keep your eyes open for it, or just connect your BlackBerry to Desktop Manager to get BlackBerry 6 OS today officially from T-Mobile.

Kevin Poulin to start again for Islanders
Kevin Poulin will make his second consecutive start in goal on Tuesday for the Islanders, his first set of back-to-back starts since Feb. 20-21, 2012 -- of course, Poulin only played 95 seconds of the Feb. 20 game, pulled after allowing two goals. But it's still a bit of a change for the Isles, going with the 25-year-old goaltender to see if he can help right the team after a four-game losing streak...Read more »
Islanders injury updates
A few health updates from the Isles' day off on Monday, with the Predators coming to the Coliseum on Tuesday: -- It does not appear Thomas Vanek (upper body) will need to go on injured reserve. Vanek, who was hurt in the first minute of Saturday's loss in Columbus and missed Sunday's game in Montreal, is still likely out of Tuesday's game. But if he comes through a Tuesday morning workout well,...Read more »
Islanders having another November swoon
MONTREAL-- Is this becoming yet another long Islanders November? With Sunday night's 4-2 loss to the Canadiens, the Isles are 2-4-0 in November, emphasis on that middle number, since they¹ve lost four straight. November has been the worst Isles month over the past three seasons -- with February of last season standing in for a usual November, since the season started in January. But the pattern...Read more »
No talks with Andrew MacDonald just yet
Aside from Thomas Vanek, the Isles have a pending UFA in defenseman Andrew MacDonald, who is coming off perhaps the most below-market deal anywhere in the NHL (he's making $550,000 this season). MacDonald is in line for a huge raise. Given the Isles' depth woes on defense, one would think talks would have begun to keep him from the open market in July, but nothing has been initiated yet....Read more »
It's about the Ws for Evgeni Nabokov
Evgeni Nabokov is old enough to remember a time when there were only two numbers that mattered to goaltenders: Wins and goals-against average. He piled up loads of the first and always was among the NHL leaders in the second category during his decade with the Sharks. Now there's not only save percentage that stands as the big statistic for a goaltender but even-strength save percentage as the...Read more »
Thomas Vanek is Garth Snow's gamble
COLUMBUS -- The Thomas Vanek Watch is on. But don't expect any sort of resolution until this season is much closer to its conclusion. Vanek has been an Islander for two weeks now and played his sixth game on Saturday night here. He has no contract beyond this season, which has confounded some observers and fans. How could Garth Snow have dealt popular top-line wing Matt Moulson plus a first-round...Read more »
Nabokov gets start over Poulin on Saturday
COLUMBUS -- Evgeni Nabokov gets the call on Saturday night here against the Blue Jackets, who have lost five straight. Cue the internet outrage! But here's the case for Nabokov on Saturday and Kevin Poulin on Sunday, in his hometown of Montreal: -- Poulin has started on consecutive nights in the NHL just once, on Feb. 20-21, 2012. He was pulled after allowing two goals in the first 1:35 of...Read more »
Fixing the Isles' power play problems
COLUMBUS -- We don't need another 1200-word breakdown of what's doing with your Islanders today. But we can dive into some of the bad and some of the good coming out of Thursday's 1-0 loss to the Hurricanes: -- Atop the list of bad things is the power play, now at 0-for-21 and sliding. It is also 0-for-18 since Thomas Vanek arrived, though John Tavares' goal in DC was essentially a PPG, since the...Read more »
Colin McDonald returns for Islanders
RALEIGH, N.C. -- Kevin Poulin goes into the Isles' net on Thursday against the Hurricanes, Colin McDonald goes back in the lineup after missing five games and Aaron Ness makes his season debut on defense.

So was the return of McDonald, who...Read more »
Isles' Frans Nielsen says team should be angry after 6-2 loss
RALEIGH, N.C. -- The Isles got back to work on Wednesday, trying to erase the bad memories of the second period in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Caps in Washington. "For me, it was the first time all year I didn't think we channeled our energy the right way," Jack Capuano said. "There was a lot of frustration on the bench and I thought it carried over in that period." The Isles gave up five goals,...Read more »

New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez has been under fire since his first day in pinstripes.
Yankee fans love to hate A-rod, but I am proud to say that I am not one of them.
Still, one would think with the way the Yankees are tearing it up on the baseball field right now, just won their 10th in a row for crying out loud, that fans would be content but no, not here in the Big Apple.
I guess that is why I should have been less surprised when I received this email from a very good, friend who happens to be a diehard Yankees fan?
Let me first stat that the writer of the above email is a dear friend whom I adore, but that doesn't change that he is a hater-fan.
Fact is the Yankees are winning as a team; and fact is A-rod is a big part of the team.
Is he the same player he was five seasons ago?
No, but unlike the majority of us, A-rod's daily job consists of physical activity and it exposes things that the rest of us take for granted.
In a sense, you have to remember that pro-athletes have no choice but to wear their ages on their sleeve; and that is a luxury the rest of us can cover at work for decades longer.
If Yankee fans could stop being jealous and angry over A-rod's salary they might realize a few things.
– A-rod is just like the rest of us except, including the Yankee fans find a reason to blame him for everything.
– Yes he took PEDs but so did a majority of players who did not have the courage to come forward and admit he was wrong on live TV. Clemens, Braun, Bonds are all in denial; while Big Papi seems to slip though the cracks as his name was on the same list as A-rod's. All of us have done stupid things in life and gotten away with it.
– It has been said over and over that A-rod works harder than any athlete to perform at his best, and you can't ask for more than that.
– You cannot call yourself a baseball fan if you try to deny that A-rod is not God-gifted with baseball talent. And who won't want to hit a baseball and be paid millions for it? Problem is majority of us can't.
I think you get the point that I am defending A-rod, as enough is enough here.
It is time for Yankee fans, like my email friend, to stop acting like entitled buffoons and get over it already.
Over the course of this whole A-rod debacle I always thought of something renowned writer H. L. Mencken once wrote:
"It is hard to believe that a man is telling the truth when you know that you would lie if you were in his place." – A Little Book in C Major
So my message to all Yankee fans is…. if are going to embrace the Yankees, relish in their victories and call yourself a fan then it is time you also forgive Alex Rodriguez.
Find a new hobby because it is boring, annoying and honestly embarrassing.
The Yankees goal is to win, and all the players on that roster are committed; Alex Rodriguez included.
As my old high school basketball coach, which I later found out she stole from Michael Jordan, used to say:
"There is no 'i' in TEAM, but there is in WIN."
And winning they certainly are.

Britain's new coalition government is set to announce big cuts in public spending and significant tax increases as it unveils an emergency budget intended to rein in a massive public deficit.
George Osborne, the UK's finance minister, is expected to lay out the Conservative-Liberal Democrats' budget to parliament in London at 1130 GMT on Tuesday.
The new government, which took power following last month's general election, says the UK's debt is now so high that deep austerity measures are needed to avoid a loss of confidence in the economy.
Measures Osborne was reportedly set to announce include a freeze in welfare benefit payments, as well as a possible rise in sales tax known as VAT.
Appearing on BBC television on Sunday Osborne said he was determined that the measures would be tough but also fair.
"What we're clear about is that all parts of society are going to have to make a contribution," he said.
Savage cuts
Meanwhile, preparing millions of public sector workers for what are expected to be savage cuts, David Cameron, the prime minister said it was "fair" that they should face a squeeze on pay and pensions.
"There is no way of dealing with an 11 per cent budget deficit just by hitting either the rich or the welfare scrounger"
David Cameron,UK prime minister
"There is no way of dealing with an 11 per cent budget deficit just by hitting either the rich or the welfare scrounger," he said in a weekend interview with The Times newspaper.
Nick Clegg, the coalition's deputy prime minister and leader of the Liberal Democrat party said in a message to supporters on Monday that the budget measures would be "one of the hardest things we will ever have to do."
"But I assure you, the alternative is worse: rising debts, higher interest rates, less growth and fewer opportunities."
The opposition Labour party, ousted at the May 6 general election after 13 years in power, has warned that moving too swiftly to make cuts could endanger a fragile economic recovery and could push the country back into recession.
"We have to be very cautious about the rate at which money is taken out of the British economy," said the party's finance spokesman Alistair Darling.
Record deficit
The new government is seeking to save tens of billions of pounds as state borrowing is forecast to reach $230bn or 10.5 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP), in the year to March 2011.
The UK's public deficit had rocketed to a record-high in the last fiscal year to March, as severe recession hit tax revenues and the government spent billions of pounds on bailing out banks.
The country's economy is predicted to grow by only 2.6 per cent in 2011 as it recovers from a record recession that ended late last year, according to the Office for Budgetary Responsibility (OBR), an independent fiscal watchdog set up by the new government.
That compared with a 3.25-per cent expansion forecast by the previous Labour government.

NASA 'Emails' a Socket Wrench To the ISS 144

from the hardware-as-a-service dept.
HughPickens.com writes: "Sarah LeTrent reports at CNN that NASA just emailed the design of a socket wrench to astronauts so that they could print it out in the orbit. The ratcheting socket wrench was the first "uplink tool" printed in space, according to Grant Lowery, marketing and communications manager for Made In Space, which built the printer in partnership with NASA. The tool was designed on the ground, emailed to the space station and then manufactured where it took four hours to print out the finished product. The space agency hopes to one day use the technology to make parts for broken equipment in space and long-term missions would benefit greatly from onboard manufacturing capabilities. "I remember when the tip broke off a tool during a mission," recalls NASA astronaut TJ Creamer, who flew aboard the space station during Expedition 22/23 from December 2009 to June 2010. "I had to wait for the next shuttle to come up to bring me a new one. Now, rather than wait for a resupply ship to bring me a new tool, in the future, I could just print it."

Ooi, Eng Hong (1997) Underpricing of New Issues Listed on the Second Board of the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange During 1989 to 1994. Masters project report, Universiti Putra Malaysia.
This paper studies the underpricing of Initial Public Offerings ("IPOs") listed on the Second Board of the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange ("KLSE") during 1 989 to 1 994. The results show that the average return, based on the difference between the first day closing price and the offer price, is approximately 65%. However, the returns after the first day up-to the first month of listing normally decline, even though there are not significantly difference from the returns received on the first day of listing. During the third month of listing, the underpricing becomes larger and this continues up-to the third year, where the average underpricing is 251 %. It is clear from this study that the new issues are mostly underpriced. In this study, the relationships between level of underpricing and other variables like underwriters and auditors involved in the IPOs, the size of public issues and the nature of business of the listing company are also studied.
