New iCloud Exploit Claims to Circumvent Failed Password Limit and 2-Factor Authentication
Hackers are ringing in the new year with another public threat to Apple's online iCloud service. A new tool released Thursday claims to utilize a "painfully obvious" bug in Apple's iCloud security infrastructure that enables the circumvention of automatic account lock-outs and multi-factor authentication.
The Mac Observer Spin The Mac Observer Spin is how we show you what our authors think about a news story at quick glance. Read More →
A hack that circumvents the automatic account lock-out is certainly believable, but we'd want to see a bit more evidence before we're convinced that this tool can succesfully defeat two-factor authentication.
How to Solve Your iPhoto Auto Launch Issues by Checking Your Preference Files
Mac Geek Gab listener Julie loves how iPhoto automatically opens when she connects her iPhone to her Mac, allowing her to quickly import and enjoy her latest photos. But lately something has gone wrong, and the Image Capture app opens instead of iPhoto, even though she triple-checked that iPhoto is configured to launch when a camera is connected. We explain how her problems may be the result of a bad preference file, and show Julie how to fix it.
How to Add a Time Capsule or AirPort Extreme to an Existing Network with Bridge Mode
Mac Geek Gab listener James is replacing his existing Apple Time Capsule with a series of non-Apple routers, but he'd still like to keep the Time Capsule in his home network in order to back up his Macs. We explain how to integrate an Apple Time Capsule or AirPort Extreme into an existing network without causing complications with his new networking gear.
Apple Patent Application Reveals Optical Image Stabilization Tech for iOS Devices
Supporting rumors that the next iPhone will retain the current 8MP camera sensor and instead focus on optical image stabilization and autofocus to improve picture quality, an Apple patent application has just been published, detailing new ways to implement OIS and AF on smartphone cameras.
Your Ultra-Portable MacBook Deserves the Ultra-Portable FINsix Power Adapter
Apple's laptops are smaller and more portable than ever, but their power adapters haven't changed much in years. Even on the smaller models, the power adapter "brick" is relatively large to carry and might not fit into tight outlet spaces. Now FINsix wants to take laptop charging to a new level with its remarkably tiny power adapter. Dubbed the "world's smallest laptop adapter," the FINsix is up to four times smaller and six times lighter than your traditional adapter, while still providing 65 watts of power for modern MacBooks. It's also flexible, with swappable tips for charging PC laptops and USB devices.
Pricing has yet to be set, but look for the FINsix to be available for pre-order around March with shipping in the middle of the year. Product image via DigitalTrends.
Next iPhone May Keep 8MP Sensor, Look to Software for Improvements
At least one financial firm thinks that Apple won't upgrade the camera hardware on the next iPhone, maintaining the current 8MP design and instead choosing to improve image quality with new software features. The report was strong enough to send the stock of the primary iPhone camera supplier tumbling.
Why Can't We Be Friends? Samsung and Apple Agree to Patent Mediation Talks
Another round of patent litigation between Apple and Samsung is scheduled for March, but the two sides have agreed to try talking one more time, with Apple CEO Tim Cook scheduled to meet with Samsung CEO Oh-Hyun Kwon before February 19th.
Sony's FDR-AX100 Camcorder Offers Stunning 4K at Prosumer Prices
Okay, so you've got a new Mac Pro that can edit 4K video "like butter," a bevy of new affordable 4K displays, and massive Thunderbolt storage to store all of your files. But how do you get 4K content to start with? Sony has the answer with a new prosumer-targeted 4K camcorder, the FDR-AX100. Launching in March for $2,000, the compact device isn't cheap, but it's one of the most affordable ways to capture high quality 4K footage. Check out the sample video if you're not convinced, and start saving those pennies.
Apple Asks Judge Cote to Remove Court-Appointed Antitrust Monitor
Apple is fed up with Michael Bromwich, the court-appointed attorney tasked with monitoring Apple's eBook antitrust compliance, and so the company's lawyers asked the court this week to remove him, arguing that he holds a personal bias against Apple and its executives.
Apple Continues to Refine iOS 7 Design with iOS 7.1 Beta 3
Apple on Tuesday released the third beta of iOS 7.1 to developers, and many design tweaks were quickly identified. With the major changes brought by iOS 7, it appears that Apple is still refining the look and feel of its new mobile platform, although sources suggest the final build won't launch until March.

Unlike other parts of the world that are experiencing clear signs of economic recovery from the global financial crisis, Europe's recovery has been unsteady. Economic turmoil in southern Europe is putting pressure on the euro. The Lisbon Treaty's strategy on improving competitiveness, expiring this year, has failed; and the new Europe 2020 strategy is not promising. Simeon Djankov will explain how, without significant structural reforms like pension reform, Europe may be facing poor economic performance for the long term, which will put further pressure on the euro. Steve Hanke, "father" of the successful Bulgarian currency board, will recommend policies for economic recovery and discuss probable scenarios of how the crisis in Europe will play out.

Obesity remains a serious health problem and it is no secret that many people want to lose weight. Behavioral economists typically argue that "nudges" help individuals with various decisionmaking flaws to live longer, healthier, and better lives. In an article in the new issue of Regulation, Michael L. Marlow discusses how nudging by government differs from nudging by markets, and explains why market nudging is the more promising avenue for helping citizens to lose weight.

Smallest possible bag for D700 + prime
Smallest possible bag for D700 + prime
Oct 28, 2010
Hi - I know there was a thread recently for a small bag, but I wanted to narrow it down a bit.
I have a couple of bags for if I want to carry all my lenses or one or two of them plus the D700, but they're really for when I go out with the specific intention of taking pictures.
I'm trying to find the smallest possible bag to carry it with a prime attached that I could sling in a duffel bag or carry-on suitcase, so that I can keep carrying the camera with me when I travel for work and am not really counting on having the time/opportunity to think about shots - I much prefer just using one lens if I'm taking pictures en passant.
I've heard some recommendations for the Kata bags, but even they seem a bit big - at least the old ones with the ribbing. Anyone have any better ideas?

The Morning News of Northwest Arkansas - (Aug/3/2004)
Neal Northcutt Jr.
We mourn the loss of Neal Northcutt Jr., who was born Sept. 11, 1924, in Stroud, Okla., to Neal and Lucille Northcutt. He served in World War II in the Pacific. He was wounded, and after seven months of recuperation, became a member of the Teamsters Union and drove a truck the rest of his career. He retired in West Fork in 1967. He was preceded in death by his wife, Penny Northcutt, his father, mother and seven brothers and one sister.

Kindle Worlds Is Growing—Amazon Publishing Announces New Licenses From Valiant Entertainment And Best-Selling Authors Hugh Howey, Barry Eisler, Blake Crouch And Neal Stephenson
(NASDAQ:AMZN)—Today, Amazon Publishing announced that it has secured licenses for its new publishing platform, Kindle Worlds, with leading comic book publisher Valiant Entertainment and best-selling authors Hugh Howey, Barry Eisler, Blake Crouch and Neal Stephenson. Through these licenses, any writer will be able to create and sell fan fiction inspired by the popular Worlds of Valiant superhero comic book series Bloodshot, X-O Manowar, Archer & Armstrong, Harbinger, and Shadowman, with more to be added at a later date, as well as Howey's Silo Saga, Eisler's John Rain novels, Crouch's Wayward Pines Series, and the Foreworld Saga. Kindle Worlds is the first commercial publishing platform that will enable any writer to create fan fiction based on a range of original stories and characters and earn royalties for doing so.
"Since announcing Kindle Worlds just weeks ago, we've been energized by the interest and enthusiasm for this new program—from writers and readers alike," said Philip Patrick, Director, Business Development and Publisher of Kindle Worlds. "With content from 2012's Diamond Gem award-winning Comic Book Publisher of the Year and the work of several best-selling authors, we're excited to expand Kindle Worlds and give writers even more options to be creative and earn royalties."
"Kindle Worlds presents an amazing opportunity to bring Valiant's wide-ranging universe of characters to a new medium, and empower fans and aspiring creators," said Gavin Cuneo, Valiant's CFO and Head of Strategic Development. "Comics are well known for their passionate and interactive fan communities, and, through the Kindle Worlds platform, we're excited to give aspiring authors and fans the opportunity to work within the Valiant Universe, make their stories accessible to a large audience, and earn revenue for their work."
Amazon Publishing previously announced licenses from Warner Bros. Television Group's Alloy Entertainment division for its New York Times best-selling book series Gossip Girl, by Cecily von Ziegesar; Pretty Little Liars, by Sara Shepard; and Vampire Diaries, by L.J. Smith. Interested writers are encouraged to visit Kindle Worlds ( www.amazon.com/kindleworlds) to learn more and get a head start on writing. Later this month, the Kindle Worlds Store is expected to launch with over 50 commissioned works, including Valiant-branded short fiction from authors Jason Starr, Robert Rodi, Stuart Moore and others. At that time, the Kindle Worlds self-service submission platform, where any writer can submit completed work, will also open.
"Good storytelling for me starts with great characters, no matter the format," said Kindle Worlds Archer & Armstrong author Scott Nicholson. "I'm thrilled that Amazon has been pushing the digital frontiers to open up even more sharing of ideas and building new communities around the most popular characters and stories."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Alfons Mucha...
Prague & its arts scene will always be associated with 2 names; the writer Franz Kafka; & the master graphic artist, Alfons Maria Mucha...
Mucha was born in Ivanchice, Moravia, 24th July 1860
After finishing his education in Brno, Mucha moved to Vienna to work with a theatrical design company...
A fire at his Viennese employer's caused Mucha to have to return to Moravia in 1881
After completing a comission for Count Karl Khuen, the nobleman was so impressed with the artwork, that he agreed to sponsor Mucha to study at the Munich Academy 0f Fine Arts...
After studying in Germany, Mucha moved to Paris, where he pursued his art at both Academie Julian & Acadamie Colarossi in 1887
The artist paid for his extended studies thanks to a meeting with the actress Sarah Bernhardt in Paris, who was so impressed by his style, she employed him for 6 years as her personal poster designer...
The association with Sarah Bernhardt, the star of Paris at the time, brought a lot of publicity to Mucha's graphic design, helping to establish him as the leading proponent of Art Nouveau...
His reputation as the grand master of Art Nouveau, was set with the Universal Exhibition in Paris, where he exhibited in 1900
However, despite achieving international recognition, in the snobbish art(y) world, he was still regarded as a mere 'poster painter', rather than the exceptional draughtsman that he was...
Mucha perfected a fluent style, that though colourful, was more graphic than painting, in style, which though regarded as not so valuable in the established art(y) world, as a trained artist myself, I know that it is actually drawing that requires all the skill & time...
After marrying Maryshka Chytilova in Prague, the couple took an extended honeymoon in New York from 1906 - 1910
During this period, their daughter Jaroslava was born in New York City...
After returning to Prague, the couple had a son, who was born in 1915
Mucha was sensitive to being compared to Salvador Dali, who also spent a sojourn in the States during this period, associating with Hollywood & earning the wrath of some in the art world who accused him of 'selling-out'...
Bearing this in mind, Mucha used the opportunity to raise awareness & funds for the cause of Slavic nationalism...
Mucha was arrested by the Gestapo after the Nazi annexation of Czechoslovakia, & held for interrogation, under suspicion of being a Slavic nationalist...
Mucha had a devotion to mysticism, & had restored Freemasonry in Czechoslovakia, a practise that had been banned in Nazi Germany, ironically, as the Nazi party itself had originally taken its organisation according to the principles of Freemasonry...
Although he was soon released, it is thought that he suffered a nervous reaction to the event, & just months later, died of pneumonia on 14th July 1939
Mucha was just 10 days short of his 79th birthday, when he died in Prague, & now lies in Vysehrad Cemetery...
Although the name of Mucha will always be associated with Prague, it took until 2013 for the city to organise a public exhibition of his graphic art...
0ften copied, but never really bettered, Mucha will always be associated with a select group of draughtsman, such as Toulouse-Lautrec, who did not differentiate their art between gallery paintings & graphic design...
Mucha's style was much imitated during his lifetime, & to this day, there are many imitators, but 2 of the most interesting to have their own style, reminiscent of the great master, incluide;

Street Food In Prague
There are areas where "street food" vendors are lined up, cooking - frying up goulash, sausages, potato chips, pastries, mulled wine and more. Located on various streets near Old Town Prague and Wenceslas Square. I wish I could give you the exact area we were at but I did not take notice. There were tall tables you could stand at to eat but no chairs.

Gaza Strip
On National Street (Národní ulice) near the National Theater (Národní divadlo) there is an ugly parking lot with an interesting mural behind it, showing tanks and bulldozers chasing each other along an endless strip of the type known as a Möbius strip (named after one its discoverers, the German mathematician August Ferdinand Möbius).
It turns out that this mural is entitled "Gaza Strip" and was painted in 2008 by the Italian street artist Blu, who intended it as a symbol of destruction and construction.
(Though in my opinion bulldozers and mechanical shovels can also be just as destructive as tanks, especially when they are used to demolish buildings and replace them with parking lots -- maybe it was also Blu's intention to suggest this.)
Address: Národní 13

Dum u Ceske Orlice - Bubnovsky dum
Dum u Ceske Orlice, also called Bubnovsky dum, is one of the most attractive buildings in Celetna street. What we can see in Celetna street it is actually the rear part of the buiilding, although it gives impression as it is front facade. The front facade is overlooking Ovocny trh (the fruit square) and it is much more decorated.
The building, which was home of dr. Cenek Klika, was built in 1896-97 by Austrian architect Friedrich Obmann. Dr. Klika was the chairman of "Junak", association of Czech scouts and guides. The front facade is decorated by famous painter Mikolas Ales, who also created the emblem of Czech Scouts.
Dum u Ceske Orlice is a sample of Czech romantic renaissance style and ushers in the beginning of Secession in Prague. -
Do not miss gleaming and intricate ornamental ironwork, particularly on the doors. Many of them also have beautiful medieval looking figural knockers.
You will see how an overall pattern adds to the architecture of each building. The closer you get more detailed and personal the door becomes.Related to:- Budget Travel

Street performers
There are lots of musicians on the streets; some of them are really good (nowadays these artists go by the name of buskers). They offer nice cultural touch to favorite tourist spots and bring life to wonderful city of Prague.
You also will see lots of mimes, whose stories and feelings are expressed by movement of the body, and 'human statue' street performers.
You can always stop for a quick photo for a modest fee.
Historically, Prague has seen troubadours and other performers animate its streets since the middle Ages. Nowadays there are lots of regulations and restrictions:
• Performances shall be live
• busking shall be performed by no more than four persons
• busking shall be carried on between 10:00 and 21:00
• one busker shall perform publicly in one place for no longer than two hours at a time
• a busker shall not place any material items (stages, platforms, etc…) in the public space
• the sale of portable media with the busker's own work shall only be carried out without the placement of sales equipment
• access to neighboring buildings shall not be obstructed etc, etc, etc!
At least a permit in order to perform in the streets is now not required.Related to:- Photography

Karl bridge musicians and artists
Every time in Prague I've seen a great jazz band on the same spot of Karl Bridge.
Back when I went there at that time I did not know that all musicians have to pay CZK 210 per day per square meter of occupied space. I would have been more generous in voluntary donations :).
You will see many different vendors, painters and other artists on Karl Bridge. It is highly commercialized area: to sell or exhibit artworks on Charles Bridge, the applicant must get approval from the committee and pay CZK 350 per day per square meter of the public space occupied. In addition, the users of sales space have to pay CZK 500 per three months.
All sells on Charles Bridge is organized by the Charles Bridge Artists Association.Related to:- Photography

Street performance
The street performance, even if it is to attract customers to a local shops, breaks the monotony and entertain passersby, especially tourists. These three costumed characters, in Celetna street, attracted by their appearance, and one of them dressed in black, entertained the passers by unexpected but charming raid.....
Swans feeding
I already have experience with feeding swans, which are not very pleasant. Swan look lovely and innocent but when it comes to food or defense of its own territory, can be very aggressive and even brutal. When it comes to fighting swan beak is devastating and even lethal weapons. Except for attacking ducks or other weaker swans, less hungry and anxious swan can attack even man.........
Padlocks (love locks) on briges
Anywhere in the world it's look weird...
First time we've seen this "Sign of undying love" in the mostly romantic city in the world - Paris.
Now Prague is full of these 'messages of eternal love' too.
Looks like the custom of 'locking a padlock and throwing away the key" start to be epidemic. Our guess is that the locks manufactories are standing behind this :).
You will see tonns of pad locks on the bridges around Kampa Island in Mala Strana (Lesser Town) district ...Related to:- Photography

In Prague you probably will wonder who is this little cute mole, which you meet in every souvenir shop?
It's famous Czech cartoon character Little Mole (Krtek or Krteèek).
Little Mole first appeared in a cartoon in 1956. Over the course of 40 years more than 50 animated films have appeared with Little Mole in the leading role.
I still remember all Little Mole cartoons from seventies. My favorite one was 'How the Mole Got His Trousers", with the pockets :). But I never knew that this cartoon was a winner of the main Golden Lion prize at the Venice Film Festival.
On 16th May 2011 Little Mole even went into space as a crew member of the space shuttle Endeavour. The popular figure was taken on board the shuttle by the American astronaut Andrew Feustel.
There is a souvenir shop dedicated to Krtek, which does ship Krtek the Little Mole worldwide. You can find it on Face Book.Related to:- Arts and Culture

Street Food -Trdelnik Rolled Pastries
Trdelnik Rolled Pastries: these sugar-sprinkled cylindrical pastries are baked before your eyes and sold fresh all over Prague. They are fluffy, hot and teasty. Trdelnik is made by wrapping dough around a wooden or metal stick and roasting it over an open flame until it is golden brown and fully cooked. It sold hot with a dusting of cinnamon, sugar, and nuts. Price is about US 2.00/each.
The vendors often sell from open stalls along the street or in squares. You'll find them in Old Town, Mala Strana, near Prague Castle and elsewhere.

Christmas Markets, Prague, CZ
Prague's Christmas markets are located around the city but the most famous and attractive is at Old Town Square.
The Christmas markets in Prague run through the month of December. They feature carriage rides, traditional Christmas Trees, seasonal Czech foods, and traditional Czech gifts and decorations.
You'll walk along the rows of wooden stalls, dressed in their holiday best, as the scents of the season (think mulled wine and hot pastries) fill the air. At night, the square lights up with the glow of thousands of lights bedecking trees and figures of angels. Also enjoy nativity scenes and a potential visit from Mikulas, the Czech Santa Claus early in the month. A lineup of events, such as open-air chorale performances, rounds out the Christmas market's list of sugarplum delights for visitors. Enjoy .... :)Related to:- Historical Travel

You will see an image of this fellow all over the Prague and Czech Republic. It won't be an overstatement to say that he is a national hero. He is the subject of films, plays, an opera, a musical, comic books, and statue and even the theme of restaurants.
The Good Soldier Švejk has become the Czech national personification and it's well-earned. He is 'The Fateful Adventures of the Good Soldier Švejk During the World War' novel's hero and in civilian life a dealer of stolen dogs.
This character splendidly described in Wiki: 'through possibly-feigned idiocy or incompetence he repeatedly manages to frustrate military authority and expose its stupidity in a form of passive resistance: the reader is left unclear, however, as to whether Švejk is genuinely incompetent or acting quite deliberately with dumb insolence.'
You have to read Jaroslav Hašek's novel to appreciate it! It is the most translated novel of Czech literature (58 languages) and really great reading!Related to:- Budget Travel

Nas to Release "Untitled" Album on July 15
New York, NY -- Surrounded by controversy at every stage of his long and influential career as the conscience - and often most severe critic - of hip-hop, Def Jam Recordings artist Nas has returned to the headlines, declaring that his new 9th album, arriving in stores July 15th, will be untitled. The untitled new album follows-up Nas' Def Jam debut, the Grammy nominated Hip-Hop Is Dead, which entered the Soundscan chart at #1 in December 2006, on first week sales of more than 350,000 copies.
"It's important to me that this album gets to the fans," Nas said of his newest project. "It's been a long time coming. I want my fans to know that creatively and lyrically, they can expect the same content and the same messages. It's that important. The streets have been waiting for this for a long time. The people will always know what the real title of this album is and what to call it."
In advance of the untitled new album, which will be issued on the Def Jam/Jones Experience imprint, the first official single will be "Hero," produced by Polow Da Don.
Over the past few weeks, two tracks from the album have been leaked: "Black President" (produced by DJ Green Lantern) and the album's closing track "N.I.G.G.E.R. (The Slave and The Master)" (produced by DJ Toomp), containing the provocative lyric, "They say we N-I-double-G-E-R/ We are, much more/ But still we choose to ignore the obvious/ Man, this history don't acknowledge us/ We were scholars way before colleges..."
One of the albums highlights is "Fried Chicken" featuring Busta Rhymes, produced by the Grammy winner for Producer Of The Year, Mark Ronson. "Fried Chicken," finds Nas and Busta in top form, mixing elaborate metaphors over a decidedly throwback Ronson track. "When I was young, sitting in my room hammering out beats on my MPC, Nas was one of those truly legendary artists that you daydream, 'One day, I'll get to do a track for...,'" says Ronson. "We finally met Grammy night in LA, and he said he wanted some stuff from me for the album. I started thinking to myself, as a Nas fan, 'What kind of beats would I love to hear him over?' That's how the Dapkings and I came up with the track for 'Fried Chicken', and I reckon it sounds like a stone cold classic."
The untitled new album will also include collaborations with producers Stic.Man from Dead Prez, Jay Electronica, Stargate, DJ Cool & Dre, and others.

It offers an opportunity to experience the value of sharing our daily realities in the context of prayer and Scripture. Presenter: Kathryn Robbie. Much of Kathryn's training and formation comes from her involvement in a wide variety of parish ministries and activities including RCIA Coordinator, Liturgy Coordinator and Director of ERDU. In recent years Kathryn has sensed a calling to a life of stillness, silence and contemplation. Workshop 2B: Praying the Scriptures with SOAP. This workshop allows participants to learn how to use SOAP in small groups. It has very little to do with being clean! Come and see! Presenter: Mike Humphrys. Mike is a member of the Everyday Mission Team in Faith & Life. He is a member of several faith sharing groups and has a passion for spirituality, evangelisation and a passion for connecting people in mission. Mike has a leading role with Catholics Returning Home, Pray 2010 and the Santa Teresa Spirituality Centre. Workshop 2C: Lectio Divina in Small Groups Lectio divina is about meditating on the Word of God and connecting the fruits of that meditation with life.

Presenter: Anthony Gooley. Rev Anthony Gooley is a deacon of the Archdiocese of Brisbane and an oblate (associate member) of a Benedictine monastic community. He teaches lectio divina and facilitates reflection days based on this method especially for parents and carers of people with disability. Workshop 2D: Our Essential Story – The Core Gospel Message. We sometimes may find it difficult to communicate the Gospel in a manner specifically intended to bring about an increase of faith in Jesus, the Christ. This workshop is a sharing of scripture supported by simple, clear and concise teachings that validate the Gospel of Jesus Christ as Good News! Presenter: John Tasker. John is Director of Evangelization Resources Down Under, a Catholic Ministry providing scripture-based resources to help others become committed mature followers of Jesus, grow into faith-filled communion with God and with one another, and to go and be effective in the mission Jesus has entrusted to us.

Keynote Presenter – John Brady John is an engaging, challenging and inspiring speaker and workshop facilitator. For over thirty years he has held senior leadership positions in education, private companies and community organisations. He has completed post-graduate study in practical aspects of leadership, team-work, organisational development and effective groups. John has witnessed the incredible value small groups can provide in accomplishing a task and providing faith and personal transformation. However through his study and consultancy work he is also keenly aware how 'dysfunctional groups' can sabotage effectiveness, individual growth and personal faith. Some of the questions he will address in his presentations are: 'What is it about small groups that feed directly into our spiritual need and yet at the same time scare the living daylights out of us! In an us? In an Australian psyche, how does our scepticism about small groups, particularly amongst men, affect our development of small groups. What is the cost/benefit analysis of groups? What is the cost/benefit analysis of setting up small groups in a parish setting? And the critical question – "Will it be fun?"' Workshops Round 1 Friday evening Workshops Round 3 Saturday afternoon Workshop 1A: Small Groups – What's the Story? New to the idea of small groups? Got some great experiences of small groups but not sure how it fits with the rest of the parish? This workshop will explore the vision and purpose of nurturing a parish OF small groups rather than a parish WITH small groups. Presenter: Greg Sunter. Greg is a member of the Evangelisation and Spiritual Formation Team at Brisbane Catholic Education and chairs the Archdiocesan Commission for Ministry with Young People. For many years, Greg has been involved in facilitating faith formation experiences with groups of all sizes. Workshop 1B: Promoting Small Groups in Parishes. This workshop outlines how one parish promotes and supports small faith sharing groups. It is one example of how the use of adult small groups for faith sharing has renewed the lives of all those involved. Presenter: Br Roger Burke FMS. Roger, a member of the Marist Brothers, became more involved in parish ministry after many years of Catholic schools leadership. In his present position of Coordinator of Adult Faith Education ministry in the Jubilee parish Brisbane, he believes strongly in the small group method of nourishing the lives of parishioners.

Penny has a passion for pastoral ministry. Workshop 1D: Small Groups – the Challenges and the Gifts. This workshop will explore some of the dynamics that affect how groups operate, and how you can be a more effective group member and leader. The workshop will be experiential as well as offering some insight into the theories about groups. Presenter: Madonna Botting. Madonna has worked in Brisbane adult faith education, juvenile justice mediation, counselling and communication training and co-teaches a subject on group processes and communication at St Paul's Theological College. Workshop 1E: Weave to Love. As Christians we need to plan our activities and priorities to play our part in achieving God's vision and purpose for us. Jesus taught us that our priorities should be to love our God and love our neighbours. So how do we make sure that our resources and activities are channelled in the right direction? Presenter: Chris Kent. Chris is an experienced management consultant with extensive leadership, managerial, financial and consulting expertise. His approach is to assist organisations to improve by taking a holistic view of how they are operating in order to identify areas where changes will deliver positive outcomes.

Presenter: Sue Thomas. Sue is the Pastoral Associate for Surfers Paradise Parish and a member of the Archdiocesan Catechumenate Committee. She has a Masters in Ministry in which she researched RCIA in an ecumenical setting. She is passionate about the RCIA and the implications for its implementation in parishes.

He has completed post-graduate study in practical aspects of leadership, team-work, organisational development and community organisations. Workshop 3E: The Merry Widows – weaving the memories.

The Case for Content Security
Free registration required
Executive Summary
Secure Content conveys the message intended by the author while maintaining its original context without revealing sensitive meta data or content to the reader. The need for Content Security is driven by two factors: the rise of computer - based tools for the creation and production of content, and high speed networks which short-circuits the traditional publishing process by enabling one to share the the work instantly with a global audience. Also, It's now easy to pull digital content out of context and re-use it in ways the author never intended. Indeed, the author may not even be aware of all the content that is hidden in the document's file format.

rinosaur 5pts FWD cars shouldn't be allowed to be COTY, or at least make a sub category for those cars.
92Vectra1.6i 5pts The Altima was always special because it not only offered style but a great driving experience, with handling well beyond what normally comes from a mid-size sedan. Nissan may have increased the sales of Altimas with the more recent generations but has hardly made it a better car by softening the ride, weakening the handling and taking away the option of a manual transmission. This new Altima may be a great, fuel efficient family sedan that continues the sales success of recent ones, but I don't believe that makes it worthy of the MTCotY.
NICKOO 5pts Sorry but no, the new fusion is NOT a good looking car. See one in person if you don't believe me. The praise over the fusion is absurd. The optima is ok...The style leader in the non-premium midsize goes to the new mazda 6. As far as best over-all car in the segment, it would be between the new hybrid system in the accord and this.
Nicktyelor 5pts Not COTY, but still a good offering. The design is too water-down funky Infiniti. Meh interior (that steering wheel is the only cool factor), and numb handling. IF a mid-sizer takes it this year, it'll be the Accord or the Fusion.
MrNissan02 5pts Oh please take your no thrills no frills Camry home to the driveway, Nissan Altima is way more fun & better looking...Camry buyers aren't looking for fun to drive!
firstname.lastname@example.com 5pts This redesign is a fail. Nothing is going to take down the king (TOYOTA CAMRY). Nuff said.
Black Dynamite 5pts The redesign has failed to light the market on fire, as sales have remained below 30k a month.Looks like it will maintain it's market share, but this car has hit it's ceiling......BD
Monsterized 5pts @MrNissan02 Toyota built Camry only for transportation from A to B, not for fun to drive, and many people get a Camry instead other mid-size options like Altima or upcoming Mazda 6, so in other words, there are many BORING people. Look at that guy driving a Camry! I know him, he's a BORING guy.-Mönst-
Black Dynamite 5pts @Monsterized @MrNissan02 People buy Camry because it's the best sedan you can get for under $25k. That's the game it plays, and nobody does it better.Whether you like it, or you don't like it, learn to LOVE IT! Because it's the best thing going today.WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!BD

"A new look at one of the greats"
In 1967, Roger Zelazny wrote his masterpiece, "Lord of Light" which was followed two years later by its equal, "Creatures of Light and Darkness".
Although he was to write many excellent and challenging novels in the next twenty-eight years, he never quite reached the heights of originality of these two works. His later work is more careful, more polished and (in the case of the Amber series) more formulaic. It is all very enjoyable, but lacks the breathtaking daring of "Lord of Light" and "Creatures of Light and Darkness". Especially in "Creatures" he writes without rules. As strange as it seems, the best parallel I can draw is the films of Quentin Tarantino. In "Kill Bill" there is an extended anime sequence right smack in the middle of the movie. That should not work, but it does. In the middle of "Creatures", the narrative is suddenly carried by a lengthy poem. That works so well it is hard to imagine it written any other way.
Although less experimental than "Creatures", "Lord of Light" was very unique it its day and introduces us to many of the elements that would ensure Zelazny's lasting popularity: morally ambiguous heroes, tragically flawed villains, the problems of god-like beings, ripping, non-stop action, and shameless, beautiful prose.
I applaud Audible for bringing back this influential book and introducing it to a new audience. The narration is unfortunately mediocre. The narrator frequently steps on the best lines or mangles them with poor timing. Nonetheless, the magic shines through. I invite everyone to rediscover this amazing classic that defined the genre of Science Fantasy.

KHTK in Sacramento, apparently a CBS (radio) affiliate, is apparently tweeting that Sacramento is deep in talks with the Celtics and Detroit, and that offers are on the table, and that the two deals are dependent on each other.
Was told by a lower management Kings official, talks regarding Pistons F Josh Smith are on hold as of now, due to SAC/BOS Rondo negotiations
Was told reasoning behind slow process, due to Kings wanting both Rondo & Smith. Unlikely one comes without the other.Kings torn on Mclemore
Am being told Kings staying put with both offers. SAC offering G Ben McLemore, 1st round pick, & Jason Terry to BOS for G Rajon Rondo.
Kings also staying put with offer to Pistons. SAC would send F Jason Thompson , PG Ray McCallum to DET for F Josh Smith.https://twitter.com/KHTK1140Callers
I don't know how legit these reports are, twitter being what it is, and rumors being what they are, but it sounds legit to me. I think that this is the deal that needs to happen, one that will help everyone. I think Sacramento needs to figure out a way to sweeten its offers a little, but Danny also has to get real about the leverage he no longer has. Other teams know that going into the season with both Rondo and Smart will be a mess, one way or another. Danny has to make a move. This sounds like the move to make. Rondo has to get real too, I think. He has to recognize that he is not now, and possibly never was, part of Danny's plan. He has to recognize that, while everyone wants to go to a major market, the most important thing is to be on a team that wants you, playing with people you want to play with. As Durant has proven, being in a major market isn't everything. Ditto Lebron.
I wanted Rondo to be a Celtics legend and I thought he could be one of the greatest. I think the shabby treatment of Rondo, as I see it, by Ainge has been a big mistake by Ainge. But now it really is time for both sides to move on. Hopefully Rondo can begin to build a new legend in Sacramento. Hopefully Smart can do the same in Boston.
Apparently the Detroit Free Press (via Pro Basketball Talk) says there is no there there...
Sacramento was looking to send nothing of value in return for Smith, which almost seems fair when considering he's guaranteed $40.5 million over the next three seasons.
But there's a new regime in Detroit with Stan Van Gundy acting as head coach and president of basketball operations, and he obviously wants to see if he can properly utilize Smith's talents before shipping him out in exchange for nothing more than financial flexibility.
My guess is that there are legs to the story, but that the Kings will have to sweeten both offers.
The latest from KHTK is that Detroit has agreed to a deal and that everything hinges on Ainge now. I don't know how valid the report is, but if it is on the money, I hope Danny stops dithering and gets down to making a deal. It's time for everyone to have a chance to move on.
No progress on the Rondo side, it seems, according to KHTK (assuming it is/has a real source):
As far as Rondo, that's the trade I'm told is most likely not to happen, but per source, the Kings will NOT make one trade w/o other.Perhaps Danny is still hoping that Rondo will turn it on as the Celtics leader, though it seems more likely to me that he's continuing to hope that he can bet a 'big haul' for Rondo.
