Protests against the Albuquerque Police Department have been making headlines worldwide.
But Sunday, at least a hundred people showed their support for officers and the department.
Many at the APD support rally say they worry about officer morale.
That is why they want their law enforcement to know they stand behind them.
Those standing on the steps at APD headquarters say they are a far cry from the protesters of the past week.
"If you notice there is no one out here wearing a mask," supporter Kathy Beard said. "So, the people who are out here today, they're actually proud of what they stand for"
Over 100 people came to support APD officers.
"I think they are out here to protect us and nobody is walking in their shoes," Beard said. "So, until you walk in their shoes then you really can't judge them."
"We love the men and women who are willing to sacrifice their lives for us to protect us day in and day out," Angie Thurman said.
The crowd wanted to show APD they still believe in them, despite three recent protests against APD over the foothills shooting death of homeless man James Boyd last month.
Last Sunday, protesters laid down on Interstate 25, there were multiple reports of vandalism and officers used tear gas to control the crowds.
APD supporters agree change is needed and more officer training is required.
But they would rather find a solution using support instead of protest.
"All the criticism they've been getting and the negative publicity, you know people make mistakes, we understand that but we also understand how important APD is in our society," supporter Clay Coleman said.
There will be another pro-APD rally at APD headquarters on Saturday at 10 a.m.

Endo Announces Potential Short-Term Supply Constraints Of Certain Analgesic Medications As A Result Of Temporary Shut Down Of Novartis Facility
CHADDS FORD, Pa., Jan. 9, 2012 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Endo Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: ENDP) today announced that, as a result of a temporary shut-down of Novartis Consumer Health Inc.'s Lincoln, Neb., manufacturing facility, there will be a short-term supply constraint of OPANA® ER. The company also announced certain other Endo analgesic products manufactured at this facility may experience short-term supply disruptions. Endo is working closely with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Novartis to minimize patient disruptions and promptly resume production of Endo's products at the Lincoln facility.
The suspension of production at the Lincoln, Neb. facility was done to facilitate Novartis's implementation of certain manufacturing process improvements. These improvements are intended to address the possibility of rare instances of errors in the packaging of the tablets, potentially resulting in product mix-ups. The temporary supply disruption is not related to the efficacy or safety of Endo's products.
"We are working collaboratively with the FDA to minimize the disruption to patients currently on therapy. Given existing inventories, the expected restart of Novartis production and our ability to shift production to other facilities we believe the supply constraints of our products should be limited," said Julie McHugh, chief operating officer of Endo Pharmaceuticals. "With Novartis as the sole manufacturer of the current formulation of Opana ER, we plan to temporarily moderate demand of the product by asking physicians to refrain from starting new patients on Opana ER in order to minimize disruption for patients currently on the product. We currently expect this to be a short-term issue and we remain focused on working with the healthcare community to optimize the continued supply of our products for current patients."
As a result of the Novartis facility shutdown, Endo will be expediting the production of products at alternative manufacturing facilities. Endo has initiated the manufacturing of PERCOCET® and ENDOCET® at its Huntsville, Ala., facility and expects minimal disruption to patients on these products. Separately, Endo also has plans to put additional procedures in place to assist Novartis in restarting production at the Lincoln, Neb., manufacturing facility. In addition to the short-term supply constraint of Opana ER, the Endo medicines that may experience a short-term supply disruption include the following products manufactured at the Lincoln facility:
- OPANA® (oxymorphone hydrochloride) Tablets CII
- Oxymorphone Hydrochloride Tablets CII
- PERCOCET® (oxycodone hydrochloride and acetaminophen USP) Tablets CII
- PERCODAN® (oxycodone hydrochloride and aspirin, USP) Tablets CII
- ENDOCET® (oxycodone hydrochloride and acetaminophen USP) Tablets CII
- ENDODAN® (oxycodone hydrochloride and aspirin, USP) Tablets CII
- Morphine Sulfate Extended-Release Tablets CII
- ZYDONE® (hydrocodone bitartrate/acetaminophen tablets, USP) CIII

Level up magic for Secret Of ManaHome / Super Nintendo /
This page contains Secret Of Mana Hints for Super Nintendo called "Level up magic" and has been posted or updated on Sep 7, 2006 by Adunning. Let us know what you think of this Hint by thumbs voting.

Level up magic
When you get the elemental Syphlid, leave the Wind Temple and go past where you fought Spring Beak and past the Sprite Village (empty village). As soon as you are back in the forest, immediately turn left and travel until you get near some rocks that are shaped like a diamond. There are about six rocks in all, with four forming a diamond. When you start to get very close, some of the pink rabbits will start hopping towards you. Back up slightly to avoid getting hit and to prevent your uncontrolled characters from hitting them. Since they cannot get to you because of the rocks, immediately start chain-casting spells (cast a spell, wait for the corresponding elemental to appear, then cast another spell as soon as it disappears) Just keep doing this to dramatically raise Undhine, Gnome, and Syphlid. If you run out of magic, just walk back to the right and head for the Wind Temple. The old man there will automatically refill your HP and MP. This trick also works when you get the other elementals. As you raise their levels, it takes longer so it may seem slow when trying to build up to levels 7 and 8. However, by then you should have enough MPs to survive.
To level up your healing magic for the girl faster, just use it all on everyone. Go to Luka, sleep for free, and repeat.

Shreveport, LA (KMS) — Tuesday morning, Shreveport Mayor Cedric Glover, alongside Rev. Harry Blake, honorary co-chairmen for the North Louisiana Civil Rights Coalition, unveiled plans to commemorate courageous local leaders who fought for social change in conjunction with the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Movement. . The Rev. Clifford McClain is chairman of the group.
In the 1950s and 60s, Shreveport was a hotbed for racial discrimination. September 22, 1963, was one of the city's most notorious days for racial intolerance, as armed, horseback-riding Shreveport police officers stormed into a worship service at the historic Little Union Baptist Church where citizens gathered in memory of four little girls killed the week before at the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Ala. It was during this vicious encounter that Rev. Blake was nearly beaten to death. Only days before, students participating in a peaceful protest from Booker T. Washington High School to Little Union were placed in paddy wagons and hauled off to jail without breaking any laws.
Local dentist C.O. Simpkins was also active in the movement along with the Rev. E. Edward Jones, whose children integrated the public school system. Rev. Jones rose to become president of the National Baptist Convention of America.
``There are some of our local legends who have passed away, like the late Bernice Smith, just to name one,'' Mayor Glover said. ``But we are equally privileged to still have living and working with us a number of these brave civil rights giants upon whose shoulders we all get to stand, so I'm honored to be a part of this noble and necessary effort.''

1990 Mitsubishi Mirage 2dr Hatchback
The 1.5L engine ran great for 10 years
(150K miles) with no problems. It would
run 70 mph with AC at 120 degree day in
day out. The cooling system easly
handled the hot weather while other cars
were dying of over heating. The auto
tranny never missed a beat. Routine
maintaince (oil belts tires). Amazing
what you can get in the hatchback. The
only weakness is the drive Boots. They
are in a exposed position to road junk.
They had to be changed several times
over the years due to damage from road junk.

Specifications and Options

Our example was also equipped with the automaker's camera-based lane departure warning system and lane-keeping assistant. When this system is activated, the QX70 will beep at the driver if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane without activating the turn signal. Ignore the beep and the system will bias-brake the front wheel on the opposite side of the drift to pull the vehicle's nose back in line. This brake-based system is reactive and won't intervene until you're already crossing the line, rather than proactive and power-steering based like the recently tested Acura MDX Advance 's system, which intervenes even before you leave the lane to keep the vehicle centered. The Acura's system is more sophisticated and arguably "better" for more distracted drivers, such as parents with small children onboard, but more attentive drivers will feel less intrusion and nannying from the more relaxed Infiniti system.
When reversing or moving forward at low speed, QX70 drivers are treated to a clearer view of the area around the vehicle thanks to Infiniti's Around View Monitor camera system, part of a Premium package, which uses four cameras and front and rear proximity sensors to stitch together a bird's-eye view of the QX. At the touch of a button, this system, displayed on the dashboard LCD, can be switched to a detailed view of the rear or the passenger's side to aid in parallel parking.
I'm sure that Infiniti offered a blind-spot monitoring system in previous versions of the FX/QX70, but our example was oddly not so equipped and no mention of such a technology can be found on the automaker's consumer Web site. This seems like an odd step backward.
Cabin tech
Though starting to show their age, the QX70's infotainment standards and options are still pretty respectable.
Even without any option boxes checked, we've got the 7-inch color display, which is used to display the standard rearview monitor. Via a bank of physical controls below, users have access to Bluetooth hands-free calling, AM/FM and SiriusXM satellite radio, CD playback, and iPod-compatible USB connectivity.
Outside of the dashboard, the QX70 also features standard keyless entry and push-button start, a power rear liftgate that can be remotely opened or closed, and automatic on/off HID headlamps and windshield wipers.
With the addition of the $4,300 Premium package, the 7-inch screen is upgraded to an 8-inch touch screen augmented with the automaker's hard-drive-based navigation system with SiriusXM NavTraffic and NavWeather. The rear camera is replaced with the aforementioned Around View Monitor; Bluetooth gains the power to stream audio via A2DP/AVRCP; and the CD player is upgraded for DVD playback. The power-adjustable driver's seat is also upgraded with two memory positions and an entry/exit position that slides the seat back and moves the steering wheel out of the way, and the steering wheel has itself been upgraded with power tilt and telescoping.
If you really want to upgrade the QX70's throne, check the box for the $3,300 Deluxe Touring package, which adds quilted leather upholstery to all of the seats and heating and cooling to the front seat surfaces. The rest of the cabin is upgraded with aluminum pedals and maple wood trim and the wheels get bumped up from the 18-inch standards to 20-inchers.
In sum
Our 2014 Infiniti QX70 3.7 AWD has a price tag of $46,400, which is $1,450 more than the non-AWD model. Add $995 in destination charges and the Technology, Deluxe Touring, and Premium packages to reach our as-tested price of $57,945.
For that sort of money, you're dealing with a vehicle that's sportier than a Lexus RX 350 F Sport could ever hope to be but less efficient than the RX 450h AWD. The Infiniti and the Lexus are equally funny-looking. If you've got about $60K in your budget for a luxury crossover, choosing between them will come down to whether you prefer the Infiniti's better cabin and safety tech, which still manages to impress after all of these years, or the Lexus' more efficient hybrid power train.

City never responded to Metro's request to plow routes, bus chief says
A chaotic command center and poor communication with Seattle road crews kept so many buses out of service that Metro's emergency snow plan was all but useless during the Christmas snowstorm that stranded thousands of riders, a Metro official said Tuesday.
Seattle Times staff reporter
A chaotic command center and poor communication with Seattle road crews kept so many buses out of service that Metro's emergency snow plan was all but useless during the Christmas snowstorm that stranded thousands of riders, a Metro official said Tuesday.
King County Metro General Manager Kevin Desmond told the City Council that when his agency called the city's Department of Transportation to ask that routes be plowed, their calls were never returned, so they had no idea if their requests were granted.
"The lesson learned is that to have much more aggressive, ongoing communication between the different levels would have been helpful," Desmond said.
During the 3 ½-hour hearing, which included rants from angry members of the public, the council resumed grilling SDOT Director Grace Crunican about why Seattle's streets were impassable days after the storm.
They questioned her decision not to hire more private contractors to help plow — only two extra plows worked the streets during the storm — and asked why she didn't use the city's emergency supply of salt on icy streets.
Crunican said her department did not have a plan for such a severe storm.
"We plowed the streets, and that wasn't enough. So what do we do then?"
Council President Richard Conlin said the storm response revealed the emergency plans used by city departments were not flexible enough as conditions changed and the storm worsened.
The council will meet again Friday to discuss changes that should be made, then put in place an action plan by the end of February.
Metro's emergency snow plan called for 80 percent of its buses to be operating. But with all of its articulated buses and electric trolleys out of service, the agency couldn't implement the plan.
At the command center, employees were working 12-hour shifts and conditions became tense and chaotic, Desmond said.
"The repeated snow events over the next several days frustrated our ability to provide predictable service," Desmond said.
Riders were left waiting at stops for buses that would never come, and in many cases, Metro's radio signals were so jammed that the agency didn't even know where its buses were.
Phone lines were overloaded, Desmond said, and Metro's Web site offered little useful information.
Desmond said two upcoming projects will improve communication, including adding GPS locaters to buses by 2010.
During future storms, Metro also will have a liaison at the city's main operations center to improve communication and help make sure bus routes are cleared.
When it came to using salt to help clear ice and snow from the streets, Crunican said she didn't believe it was an option. The city hasn't used salt to de-ice streets since the late 1990s, when it stopped the practice because of environmental concerns.
Last week, Mayor Greg Nickels announced the city would reverse directions and use it under certain circumstances.
Crunican seemed more willing to admit mistakes Tuesday than she had been Monday, when she defended her agency's response.
"I can see in hindsight, believe me: I'm not immune to the fact that we didn't get the job done for the public and for their expectations," she said.
Conlin said the city doesn't deserve the "B" grade Nickels gave it Christmas Eve for its storm response.
"I feel the grade is 'needs improvement,' " Conlin said. And after two days of questions, he said, city department heads are starting to acknowledge that, too.
"I'm hearing now some recognition that there does need to be improvement."
Nickels spokesman Alex Fryer said a B grade leaves room for improvement. He defended Crunican, who was out of town for two days during the storm.
"There's no one that can point to a single decision that was compromised because she was gone for that brief period of time," Fryer said.

Posted Fri, Jul 15, 2011 by Martuk
In a post to the Firefall community last month, Red 5 CEO Mark Kern explained the reasoning behind Red 5's filing for arbitration to terminate Webzen's contract. The letter states that Webzen has not honored its obligation to Firefall in Asia and that Red 5 has been shouldering the burden of advertisement costs in the US without support from the publisher.
This week Webzen is firing back with a new lawsuit against Red 5's Korean office alleging numerous breaches of its publishing contract. According to a report from Gamasutra, Webzen alleges to have invested more than $25 million in Firefall over the game's 5-year development.
The Webzen dispute also points to an offline test organized without their permission and the recent "unauthorized" announcement of author Orson Scott Card's involvement in writing the story for the project. Webzen alleges that they have been planning to reveal the Firefall details at G-star, but after learning that Red 5 intended to attend the event independently, the publisher took legal action.

How To Install ImpressCMS 1.0 Final On Debian Etch
Submitted by o.meyer (Contact Author) (Forums) on Thu, 2008-03-27 17:21. :: Debian
How To Install ImpressCMS 1.0 Final On Debian Etch
Version 1.0
This document describes how to set up ImpressCMS 1.0 Final On Debian Etch. Taken from the ImpressCMS page: "ImpressCMS is a community developed Content Management System for easily building and maintaining a dynamic web site. Keep your web site up to date with this easy to use, secure and flexible system."
This howto is a practical guide without any warranty - it doesn't cover the theoretical backgrounds. There are many ways to set up such a system - this is the way I chose.
1 Preliminary Note
I used a minimal Debian Etch system (network install) for this howto. The attached VM is configured as follows:
Hostname: server1.example.com
2 Needed Packages
Let's install some needed package for this setup.
apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql mysql-server mysql-client
3 MySQL Configuration
3.1 Bind Address
In order that the MySQL server will listen on all available interfaces, we have to adjust its configuration.
vi /etc/mysql/my.cnf
Search this line ...
bind-address = 127.0.0.1
... and comment it so that it looks like this:
# bind-address = 127.0.0.1
Afterwards restart the MySQL server.
/etc/init.d/mysql restart
3.2 MySQL Root User
First we have to set a password for the MySQL root user.
mysqladmin -u root password %sql_root_password%
3.3 ImpressCMS Database & Database User
Next we create a database for ImpressCMS.
mysqladmin -u root -p create impresscms
After that we create a user for this database.
mysql -u root -p
GRANT CREATE, ALTER, INDEX, DROP, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON impresscms.* TO 'impresscms_admin'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '%impresscms_admin_password%';
4 ImpressCMS Vhost
Create the document root for ImpressCMS ...
mkdir /var/www/impresscms/
... and the ImpressCMS trust directory.
mkdir /var/www/impresscms_trust/
Now we create the vhost configuration file.
vi /etc/apache2/sites-available/impresscms
It could look like this:
NameVirtualHost 192.168.0.100:80 <VirtualHost 192.168.0.100:80> ServerName server1.example.com ServerAdmin firstname.lastname@example.com DocumentRoot /var/www/impresscms/ LogLevel warn ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/impresscms_error.log CustomLog /var/log/apache2/impresscms_access.log combined </VirtualHost>
After that enable the new vhost ...
a2ensite impresscms
... and restart Apache to take the changes effect.
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
5 Get ImpressCMS
Please take a look at http://www.impresscms.org/modules/mastop_publish/?tac=Download to find out which is the latest version. When I was writing this howto it was version 1.0 .
cd /tmp/
Afterwards copy the content of the extracted folder "htdocs" to the vhost document root ...
cp -R /tmp/htdocs/* /var/www/impresscms/
... and change the permissions.
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/impresscms/ /var/www/impresscms_trust/

In a rare sit down interview, Bebb explains why his office decided to dismiss Donnie Brantley's first degree murder charge, despite calling it a, "knock 'em dead case."
Bebb adds, "We don't decide things unilaterally. You know, I want to know what everybody thinks, so in this, the family evidentially had told law enforcement they didn't feel good about going forward with it at this time and they wanted to try and get more evidence."
From the local newspaper:
"A cold-case trial was set to begin today, but late last week, the family of Marsha Brantley, who was reported missing in 2009, decided to drop the case for now so investigators could continue to collect evidence and information.
Donnie Ray Brantley has been freed from the charge of first-degree murder, according to Paul Rush, who took over prosecution of the case recently after assistant District Attorney General Stephen Hatchett left the District Attorney General's Office to seek election.
"There are more people coming forward with information and the family of Marsha Brantley approached us to discuss dropping the charge at this time," Rush said."

So they let him go; sounds like he's free to go where ever? I'll be surprised if they do not find him dead before picking him up again. He knows it's coming.
Just to be clear, I know that Marsha's relatives have stepped up to the plate and pursued her case. They must know something that we don't. I hope they find peace.
Thinking of Marsha and her loved ones, as always.
Where there is love there is life.
~ Mahatma Gandhi
I wonder if they are hoping he will lead them to her body?

In the past, many devices have been proposed to aid a professional or amateur magician in performing magic "tricks." Many of these devices have been well received, especially among amateur magicians, because they enable the performer to present illusions to the audience without requiring the great degree of skill achieved by professionals. Some of these devices included, for example, decks of cards wherein some of the cards were "shaved" to permit easy location of a particular card by the performer. Others have been in the form of a magician's hat which have included a hidden compartment for concealment of the traditional rabbit or dove which the magician miraculously "pulls" out of the hat.
An object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved magic hat having a plurality of concealed inner compartments for the storage of trick accessories.
In accordance with the above, the present invention includes a magic hat having a tall upper compartment which is closed at one end and carries a rim or brim at the other end. A fluid reservoir cavity is formed by a plurality of baffle means in the uppermost end. A storage compartment is mounted within the fluid reservoir cavity, flush with the baffle means for storing a plurality of cards and/or a flag or scarf which can be pulled from the hat. A crescent shaped longitudinal cavity is provided along the interior of one side of the hat for storing a "magic wand" and also forms a second fluid reservoir. Access holes to the crescent cavity are provided on the exterior of the hat and disguised or hidden by a wide band of flexible or fabric material. An elastic string is provided about the band to enable the performer to cause the hat to mysteriously slide across a table while waving the wand above the hat and tugging on a portion of the elastic string.

FIGS. 12a, b and c are sequential views showing the retention of a fluid in the upper fluid reservoir by rotation of the magic hat; and
FIG. 13 is an exploded perspective view of the components of the magic hat of the present invention.
A magic hat, generally designated 10, is shown in FIG. 1 in an upsidedown or overturned position. The hat 10 includes an annular rim or brim 12 which is mounted on the bottom of a hollow cylindrical housing 16. A circular cap, generally designated 18 (FIGS. 3 and 12), closes the top end of the housing 16. An instruction booklet 20 is included with the magic hat 10 to illustrate to the user a plurality of different magic tricks which may be performed with the hat 10.
A plurality of accessory items are shown in FIG. 2 for use with the hat 10. The accessory items include a set of playing cards 24, a flag 26, a magic wand, generally designated 28, and a flexible fluid reservoir 30. The fluid reservoir 30 includes a nozzle 32 which is connected to a flexible hose 34 for use with the hat 10, as will be described in detail hereinafter. A plurality of magic tricks or illusions can be performed with the use of the hat 10, alone, or in combination with one of the accessories shown in FIG. 2.
One of the plurality of magic tricks which may be performed with the present invention includes a trick in which water or other fluid is poured directly into the hat, after which the hat is overturned and placed on the head of the magician without spilling any of the water or other fluid. For this trick, a water-tight fluid reservoir or cavity 40 (FIG. 3) is formed in the top end of the housing 16 inside the cap 18. Baffle means in the shape of an inverted dish, generally designated 42 (FIG. 13), is mounted within the housing 16 adjacent the cap 18 to form the cavity 40. More particularly, the baffle 42 includes a generally circular disc portion 44 which substantially fills the interior area of the housing 16. A web or skirt portion 48 is formed on the disc 44 around approximately 80 percent of the disc 44 and engages the side walls of the housing 16 and the inner surface of the cap 18. A shorter semi-circular skirt portion 50 is formed around the remaining periphery of the disc 44 to form the cavity 40. The skirt portion 50, as seen in FIG. 3, is spaced from the cap 18 to provide an access opening 52 for fluid to enter the cavity 40. The radius of the smaller skirt portion 50 is slightly larger than that of the skirt portion 48 and includes two offset webs 54 to conform to the internal shape of the housing 16. The internal shape of the housing and the reasons therefore will be described in detail with respect to the additional magic tricks.
A water-tight pocket or second cavity 58 (FIG. 3) is formed within a rectangular aperture 60 formed in the disc 44 as will be described in detail below.
Referring to FIGS. 12a through 12c, the steps necessary to perform the illusion of pouring water into the hat and then inverting the hat onto the performer's head are shown in sequence. The performer first pours a given quantity of liquid 62 (FIGS. 12a) into the hat while tilting the hat as shown to cause the fluid to flow through the aperture 52 into the cavity 40. The hat then is rotated in a counterclockwise direction, as shown by arrow A in FIG. 12a. The hat 10 is rotated through the position as shown in FIG. 12b to the final position as shown in FIG. 12c where the hat can be worn in the upright position on the performer's head without any of the fluid 62 seeping out. To remove the fluid 62 from the hat, the reverse process is performed which permits the fluid 62 to be poured from the hat 10.
The cavity 58, previously referred to, is provided for storing the deck of cards 24 and the flag 26. More particularly, referring to FIGS. 8 and 13, the cavity includes a generally rectangular box portion 66 which is mounted in the top of the disc 44 within the cavity 40. The rectangular box 66 includes a flange 68 therearound which fits within a corresponding rectangular ridge or boss 70 (FIG. 3) formed on the upper side of the disc 44. Detent means in the form of notches 72 on the flange 68 and tabs (not shown) in the boss 70 insure proper placement of the rectangular box 66 on the disc 44. A suitable adhesive is used between the contact areas of the flange 68 and the boss 70 to provide a water-tight seal within the cavity 40. The cavity 58 is provided with a pivotally mounted lid 76 to conceal the items 24 and 26 within the cavity 58. The lid 76 includes a pair of parallel flanges 78 and a pivot pin 80 on each flange 78. The pivot pins 80 are mounted within a pair of journal recesses 82 formed in either side of the rectangular box 66. Two compartments 58a and 58b are formed within the rectangular box 66 by an upstanding interior flange 84. The smaller compartment 58a formed behind the flange 84 provides clearance for the end of the lid 76 behind the pivot pins 80. The compartment 58b provides space for storing of the flag 26.
Referring to FIG. 8, four inwardly directed tabs 86 are provided on the flanges 78 beneath lid 76 to maintain the cards 24 in a position thereunder. Two inwardly directed tabs 88 are provided near the pivot pins 80 to prevent the cards from interfering with the flange 84 during closure. A pair of rectangular cutouts 90 are provided on the flange 84 to permit clearance for the tabs 88. In use, the lid 76 is flush with the disc 44 so that the hat will appear to be empty to the audience. The overhanging portion of the lid behind the pivot pins permits the lid 76 to be opened merely by depressing the portion of the lid behind the pivot pins 80 to gain access to either the cards or the flag.
A third, crescent-shaped longitudinal cavity, generally designated 94, is formed along the interior of the wall of the housing 16. Referring to FIGS. 4 and 13, the cavity 94 is formed between the inner wall of the housing 16 and a semi-circular shell portion 96 of slightly larger diameter than that of the housing 16. The shell 96 includes two tapered ends 98 which engage a pair of complementary recesses 100 formed in the housing 16. The inside surface of the shell 96 and the inside portion of the interior of the housing which is not covered by the shell 96 includes a plurality of vertical notches or grooves 102, rectangular in cross section, along the entire length thereof. The main purpose of the notches 102 is to disguise or conceal the juncture between the shell 96 and the housing 16. As seen in FIG. 4, one wall of the notch 102 adjacent either end of the shell 96 is formed in the housing 16 while the other two walls thereof are formed in the shell 96 itself. Therefore, to the casual observer, after assembly, it is not possible to see a juncture between the ends of the shell 96 and the housing 16.
The shell 96 itself extends substantially the entire length of the housing, but terminates just short of the disc 44 to provide an opening 104 therebetween to allow passage of fluid to perform the first trick previously described.
The cavity thus formed behind the shell 96 is further divided into two compartments, one for storage of the magic wand 28, and the other for storage of the flexible fluid reservoir 30 and hose 34. More particularly, referring to FIGS. 4 through 7 and 13, a magic wand compartment, generally designated 106, is formed between two rearwardly directed flanges 108 on the shell 96 (FIG. 13). A back wall 110 is formed across the flanges 108 including a rectangular opening 112 for access into the wand compartment 106. The front or inside portion of the wand compartment 106 is substantially open and is covered by a flexible resilient member 114 which is secured at the uppermost end of the shell 96. A wand ejector member, generally designated 116, is pivotally mounted within the wand compartment 106. The ejector comprises an elongated tab 118 and a rectangular button 120 formed integrally therewith which extends into the aperture 112. The tab 118 is pivotally mounted between the two flanges 108 by a pivot pin 122. Referring to FIG. 6, the magic wand 28 is shown in phantom within the wand compartment 106. The aperture 112 is in alignment with an aperture 124 formed within the housing 16 to provide access to the button 120. As the button 120 is pressed (FIG. 7), the ejector 116 pivots into engagement with the wand 28 thereby flexing the cover 114 to permit access to the wand 28. Thus, without any visible compartments, a magician or performer can provide an illusion by pulling a wand from the hat.
Adjacent the wand cavity 106 is a fluid reservoir cavity, generally designated 128 (FIG. 5). The cavity 128 is formed between one of the flanges 108 and a third vertical flange 132. The bottom of the fluid reservoir cavity 128 is formed by a horizontal flange 134 which contains a U-shaped cut-out 136 for passage of the nozzle 32 of the fluid reservoir 30. The reservoir neck 32 is in communication with an aperture 140 formed in the cap 18 by the hose 34. The fluid reservoir 30, when the magic hat 10 is assembled, is adjacent a circular aperture 142 formed in the housing 16. The magician or performer can then depress the flexible reservoir 30 and cause a "squirt" of water to emerge from the cap 18 of the hat.
A flexible fabric band 146 is provided to surround the housing adjacent the brim 12 and thereby disguise the apertures 124 and 142 while still permitting manual manipulation thereof by the performer.
An elastic string 148 surrounds the flexible fabric band 146 and includes a button 150 to perform a type of levitation trick. The button 150 provides a convenient place for the performer to hold the string 148 and stretch it by pulling the hat toward himself, while waving the magic wand 28 above the hat to distract the audience, the "magician" can cause the hat 10 to mysteriously slide across a table or other suitable supporting surface.
Referring to FIGS. 9-11, the magic wand 28 includes a hollow tubular portion 154 which is closed by a cap 156 on one end (FIG. 9). A solid telescoping portion 158 fits within the tubular portion 154. The tubular portion has a crimped edge 160 around its open end and the solid telescoping portion 158 includes a head, generally designated 162, which cannot pass the crimped edge 160. The head 162 includes a V-shaped cutout 164 which permits easy snap-in assembly of the telescoping portion 158. The free end of the telescoping portion 158 includes a cap 166 which is the same diameter as the outside of the tubular portion 154 to disguise the telescoping feature when in a closed position. The solid portion 158 includes a U-shaped trough 168 which is not easily visible to the audience. The trough 168 when positioned on the upper side of the wand enables the magician to mysteriously "balance" a ball 170 on top of the wand when placed in the trough 168.
The foregoing detailed description has been given for clearness of understanding only and no unnecessary limitations should be understood therefrom as some modifications will be obvious to those skilled in the art.

As we head into the final months of the Presidential campaign, the timing was indeed perfect for IFC Films, which has acquired U.S. rights to the political drama KNIFE FIGHT, starring Rob Lowe as an insider strategist. Bill Guttentag, a documentarian best known for the film SOUNDTRACK TO A REVOLUTION, wrote and directed the screenplay (a collaboration with political consultant Chris Lehane, who served as White House advisor to President Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton and served as Vice President Al Gore's press secretary). In the film which premiered last January at the Sundance Film Festival, Lowe plays a political strategist, working with a Kentucky governor (Eric McCormack), a blackmailed California senator (David Harbour) and an idealistic doctor turned gubernatorial candidate (Carrie-Anne Moss), who starts to question his methods.

My Go To Jacket
I used this jacket exclusively for the season of 2011/2012. Just enough insulation to keep you warm, yet not too much to make the jacket feel bulky or heavy. The exterior herringbone fabric is enough to make the jacket have a little bit of style along with its waterproof shell. The fit is longer in the waist which is great for snow coverage and for a more modern look. Overall, it's been my favorite day to day jacket Salomon has ever made.

Phone, Internet outages hit Hawaiian Telcom
Updated On: Nov 14 2013 06:39:49 PM HST
Hawaiian Telcom says it is dealing with double the amount of trouble calls and says the weather is partially to blame.
Landlines in a 14-story high-rise in Hawaii Kai have been out since the rain hit last weekend. The resident manager said he's been told repairs may not happen until Nov. 22.

He's worried because a majority of the apartment owners are elderly and many don't have cell phones.
Residents say the landlines are tied into the building's security system.
"The landlines are also in the elevators and that is an emergency call out button and right now I have some that work and some that don't. So it is a problem," said resident manager Tommy Samora.
Hawaiian Telcom says the phone and Internet outages are reported in pocked in East Honolulu, Windward Oahu, West Oahu, as well as the neighbor islands.
Hawaiian Telcom crews are working overtime to deal with the increase volume of trouble calls.
Customers will have their bills adjusted and may have their numbers forwarded to their cell phones free of charge during the outage.
