I am in the market for an umbrella stroller and would love all of your suggestions. I would like it to be comfortable for my child and have good storage.

I recently got a Chicco Liteway stroller and I really like it. It's tall enough that I don't feel all hunched over while we walk, yet it fold down like an umbrella stroller. It's a bit big, even folded, but it's still way better that the travel system we had. It's smooth while we walk, seems comfy and I like the handles. I tried several and it was the only one where I didn't kick the wheels.
Maclaren! I really love mine, I have a double and a single. The single can really hold a larger child and push easily which many of the others do not. The double seats are a bit smaller but still work well.
This is why I love AMAZON so much! you can find great reviews on almost all products and they are usually accurate.
The First Years Jet Stroller - This one has 200 reviews and 4 out of 5 Stars.
First Years Ignite Stroller This one has 163 reviews but its 4.5 starts out of 5 and looks more comfortable.
I have one of the cheap Babies R Us strollers that was like 20 bucks and I'd rather get one of the ones above. They look 10x more comfortable.
I love my Uppa Baby G-lite (their G-lux also is great). Super light weight, good storage basket, stands on its own folded up (which I can do one handed holding a baby), shoulder strap for carrying folded. Handles like a dream.
I love their customer service too. You call, a real person in their main office picks up and solves your problem.
Mama to Monkey (Jan '09), Bee (May '11), and Cat (August, '13)
We have that First Years Ignite stroller. We like it. It is light. Reclines. Folds easily. The basket isnt bad for an umbrella stroller. It was inexpensive. The handles are long enough you dont kick the wheels or have to push bent over. We have had it almost a year and it is going strong. And we are hard on strollers. The best $60 Ive spent on a stroller.
Me 40 . Partner to mamacolleen 33 . DD born July 2009 . Twin boys born Nov 2012.
We are a family that loves
I have the Maclaren "Volo" stroller, and it's pretty sweet. Nothing too fancy about it, but I've been using it for 2 1/2 years and it's got no signs of wear. It's got a handy shoulder strap for carrying it once it's folded. It's got a little mesh basket underneath, and a rain cover. Basically, everything I need in a stroller, but handily umbrella-ified. The only downside I can see is that it's a bit pricey, and it's a little bit annoying to fold up (though very easy to unfold). But really, I love the thing. Great stroller.
Thanks so much for your advice!
I second the Maclaren recommendation (the basic models include the Volo and Triumph). These strollers are incredibly durable, comfortable for both the child and parent (to push) and very travel friendly.

I second Uppa Baby. I have the G-lux. Handles like a dream. Super light. Easy to fold and carry. Love it!

text: Having struck gold with the previous season's Dillinger, the King Brothers returned to Monogram as producers of The Gangster. Adapted by Daniel Fuchs from his own novel Low Company, the film stars Barry Sullivan as flint-faced racketeer Shubunka. Shown to be a product of the slums, Shubunka spends his adulthood in pursuit of power and riches, with no time for friendship or romance. Wounded in a gangland shootout, Shubunka ruminates on his past, present and (unlikely) future, wondering if it's all been worth it. Promoted as a "psychological" drama, The Gangster has plenty of gunplay and bloodshed to satiate action fans, and a surfeit of sex appeal in the form of gangster's moll Nancy (played by Monogram's resident skating star Belita). Prominent in the supporting cast is the ineluctable Sheldon Leonard as Shubunka's chief rival, delivering a subtler variation on his patented tough-guy screen persona. The Gangster was directed by Oscar-winning art director Gordon Wiles, later a mainstay of such TV series as Land of the Lost and Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Description The invention is in the field of electrical switches, in particular, electrical switches relying on liquid gallium metal or liquid gallium alloy as a bridging electrical conducting material. Electrical tilt switches and sensors such as thermostats, float controls, solenoids, relays, etc. are commonly used in a variety of electrical applications. The making or breaking of electrical contact in these switches, hence the electrical switching action, is generally accomplished by mechanical movement or tilting of the switch which causes a quantity of a bridging conducting material, commonly liquid mercury metal, contained therein to flow from one location to another. In a typical switch application, liquid mercury is positioned inside a housing into which a pair of spaced electrodes or electrical contacts extend. Depending on the physical orientation of the housing, the liquid mercury can provide a conductive pathway between the electrodes or be positioned such that there is an open circuit between the electrodes. The switch is closed and electrical contact made when the switch housing is moved in a manner such that the quantity of mercury flows toward and collects in the switch housing at a location where the mercury bridges the spaced electrodes. Conversely, the switch is opened and electrical contact broken when the switch housing is moved in a manner such that the quantity of mercury flows towards and collects at a different position in the switch housing out of contact with at least one of the electrodes. In some configurations of these kinds of electrical switches, one electrode remains in continuous contact with the quantity of mercury and the electrical circuit is closed when the mercury contacts the other electrode. In these electrical switch configurations, the electrode that continuously contacts the mercury is referred to as the common electrode, while the electrode that intermittently contacts the mercury as a result of changes in the switch orientation is referred to as the arcing electrode because it is subjected to electrical arcing whenever the electrical circuit is made or broken. In yet other configurations, there may be more than two electrodes within the switch housing such that more than one electrical circuit may be closed depending on the location of the quantity of mercury, hence the orientation of the switch. The foregoing configuration, as well as other configurations of mercury-based electrical switches, and their applications, would be known to persons skilled in the art. A problem with mercury-based electrical switches is the mercury is toxic to humans and animals, and exposure to mercury is a significant concern in any application or process in which it is used. Utilization of mercury during manufacturing may present a health hazard to plant personnel, and the disposal of devices that contain mercury switches or the accidental breakage of mercury switches during use may present indirect hazard to people within the immediate vicinity of the switch. As a result of the toxicity of mercury, non-toxic replacements for mercury in electrical switch applications have been sought. A candidate for replacing mercury in electrical switches is liquid gallium metal or liquid gallium alloys. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,462,573 (Rabinowitz et al.) discloses vacuum type circuit interrupters using a pair of fixed electrodes, or contacts, having liquid gallium metal or liquid gallium alloys as the bridging conducting material between the electrodes or contacts. U.S. Pat. No. 5,391,846 (Taylor et al.) discloses an alloy substitute for mercury in switch applications comprising a gallium-indium-tin eutectic alloy which has been cleaned to remove all oxides. U.S. Pat. No. 5,792,236 (Taylor et al.) discloses a non-toxic liquid metal composition comprising gallium metal or gallium alloy for use as a mercury substitute in, among other things, electrical switches. U.S. Pat. No. 5,478,978 (Taylor et al.) discloses electrical switches and sensors which use a non-toxic liquid metal composition, namely gallium metal or gallium alloy. Each of the above references is hereby incorporated by reference. The electrodes or electrical contacts in mercury-based switches are commonly molybdenum, tungsten or platinum. However, when gallium is used in electrical switches in place of mercury, it has been found that electrodes comprised of these materials deteriorate relatively rapidly. For example, our experiments show that molybdenum electrodes, tungsten electrodes and platinum electrodes have been found surprisingly to recess or erode rapidly after a relatively low number of arc cycles, which may be due to an interaction between gallium and these metals. As a result, our experience indicates that electrodes composed of platinum, tungsten or molybdenum are generally unsuitable for gallium-based switch applications. Electrodes in mercury-based switches are also commonly composed of nickel, chromium or iron. Our experience indicates that thinning of the electrodes comprising either one of these metals may result from immersion in gallium, but the process may be slow if the operational temperature of the gallium-based switch is kept low. Consequently, these metals may be used as common electrodes in gallium-based switches. However, it has been found that each of these metals are unsuitable as the arcing electrode in gallium-based electrical switches since each may be eroded by the harsh conditions created by the electrical arc that results whenever an electrical circuit is made or broken. Consequently, high temperature arc operations may result in these electrodes melting away in gallium-based switches. In view of the above drawbacks and problems, it is apparent that a need exists for a novel approach to gallium-based electrical switch construction which will reduce or eliminate such drawbacks and problems. An object of the present invention is to provide an improved gallium-based electrical switch. In accordance with the present invention there is provided an electrical switch comprising a housing defining a cavity, at least two spaced electrodes, each electrode extending through the housing into the cavity, and wherein at least one of said at least two electrodes is composed of tantalum or a tantalum alloy, and a moveable amount of liquid gallium or liquid gallium alloy within the cavity to electrically connect and disconnect any two of said at least two electrodes as a result of movement of the housing. An advantage of the present invention is providing a gallium-based electrical switch in which the electrodes withstand degradation by the gallium or the electrical arc to a better degree than the electrodes in gallium-based switches in the prior art. The present invention may be further understood from the following detailed description, with reference to the figures in which: FIG. 1 is a phase diagram between mercury and platinum; FIG. 2 is a phase diagram between mercury and molybdenum; FIG. 3 is a phase diagram between mercury and nickel; FIG. 4 is a phase diagram between mercury and chromium; FIG. 5 is a phase diagram between mercury and iron; FIG. 6 is a phase diagram between gallium and platinum; FIG. 7 is a phase diagram between gallium and molybdenum; FIG. 8 is a phase diagram between gallium and nickel; FIG. 9 is a phase diagram between gallium and chromium; FIG. 10 is a phase diagram between gallium and iron; FIG. 11 is a phase diagram between gallium and tantalum; FIG. 12 is a vertical sectional view of a gallium-based electrical switch in a position where the electrical circuit of the switch is closed; FIG. 13 is a vertical sectional view of a gallium-based electrical switch in a position where the electrical circuit of the switch is open; FIG. 14 is a vertical sectional view of a gallium-based electrical switch with common and arcing electrodes in a position where the electrical circuit of the switch is closed; and FIG. 15 is a vertical sectional view of a gallium-based electrical switch with common and arcing electrodes in a position where the electrical circuit of the switch is open. The interaction of the commonly used metals for electrodes in mercury-based electrical switches with liquid mercury were analysed to explain why these metals function well in such switches. Phase diagrams between each of these metals and mercury were studied. Referring to FIG. 1, there is shown a phase diagram between platinum and mercury. It may be observed that platinum forms a high melting point intermetallic compound (Hg4Pt) which is wetted by mercury, meaning that mercury adheres to and coats the intermetallic compound with a layer of mercury. The formation of this intermetallic compound occurs when mercury contacts platinum as indicated by the mercury rich portion of the phase diagram (left side) where mercury coexists with Hg4Pt. The intermetallic coated platinum is wetted to mercury. In the environment of an electrical switch, the surface of the platinum electrode forms this electrically conductive intermetallic upon which a layer of mercury adheres. The electrical arc in this kind of switch configuration may be between the mercury melt pool and the mercury on the surface of the platinum electrode, the effect of which may be to protect the platinum electrode from damage caused by electrical arcing. Referring to FIG. 2, there is shown a phase diagram between molybdenum and mercury from which it may be observed that molybdenum has no solubility in mercury. As a result, molybdenum electrodes are not usually decomposed or attacked by dissolution by the mercury in mercury-based electrical switches. And because of the high melting point of molybdenum, electrodes composed of molybdenum are not usually damaged for example by pitting due to volatilisation by the electrical arc. There are no intermetallics formed between molybdenum and mercury. Referring to FIGS. 3, 4 and 5, there are shown phase diagrams for nickel and mercury, chromium and mercury, and iron and mercury, respectively. All three metals have no solubility in mercury thus each metal functions well as non-arcing common electrodes in mercury-based electrical switches. However, because of the relatively low melting point of each of these metals, they are not generally suitable for use as arcing electrodes since the heat created from the arc may result in the degradation of such electrodes. Phase diagrams for the interaction of each of the metals platinum, molybdenum, tungsten, chromium, nickel and iron with gallium were analysed to determine why these metals did not work well in gallium-based electrical switches. Referring to FIG. 6, there is shown a phase diagram for platinum and gallium which reveals that platinum interacts with gallium to form intermetallic compounds that have relatively low melting points of approximately 290� C. and 822� C. respectively. These intermetallic compounds may melt away during operation of a gallium-based electrical switch, especially during arcing. As well, the intermetallic compounds may also be brittle and fracture away from the electrodes during switch operation. The intermetallic compounds also need to be conductive enough to carry the electrical current. Referring to FIG. 7, there is shown a phase diagram for molybdenum and gallium which reveals that molybdenum interacts with gallium to form an intermetallic compound that has a relatively low melting point of approximately 835� C. This intermetallic compound may melt or fracture away from the electrode during operation of a gallium-based switch. Referring to FIGS. 8, 9 and 10, there are shown phase diagrams for nickel and gallium, chromium and gallium, and iron and gallium, respectively. All three metals have a significant solubility in gallium resulting in decrease in size of electrodes composed of these metals when placed in liquid gallium or liquid gallium alloy, especially when the contact between gallium and these elements are made at elevated temperature. The problems of this dissolution include loss of electrode material as well as change in the chemistry of the gallium alloy which may increase the melting point of the gallium alloy freezing it from the liquid state. Surprisingly, it has been discovered that electrodes or contacts composed of tantalum metal work with gallium metal or gallium alloys and do not have the drawbacks of the prior art. Tantalum has been found to be well suited to function as the common and arcing electrode in gallium-based electrical switches. Referring to FIG. 11, there is shown a phase diagram of tantalum and gallium. It may be observed that tantalum and gallium, when exposed to high temperature form an intermetallic compound (Ga3Ta) having a relatively high melting point. This intermetallic compound is found to be wetted by gallium such that a film of liquid gallium forms on the tantalum electrode. Also the intermetallic compound does not break away by the brittleness of the compound and, surprisingly, exhibits excellent electrical conductivity. Consequently, the electric arc occurs between the liquid gallium conductor and the gallium wetted to the tantalum electrode. This may be a unique situation that, when coupled with the high boiling point of gallium (>2000� C.) results in a gallium-based electric switch having a high temperature capability in which high currents can be carried by sustaining high temperature arcs without resulting in electrode failure. In addition to pure tantalum, alloys of tantalum may also be used effectively. Tantalum alloys are solid solutions of tantalum with minor additions of a second element or a combination of second elements, such as for example, Niobium (Nb), Molybdenum (Mo), Titanium (Ti), Vanadium (V), Tungsten (W), Aluminum (Al), Nickel (Ni), Iron (Fe), Chromium (Cr), Gold (Au), Palladium (Pd), Platinum (Pt), Rhenium (Re), Rhodium (Rh), Ruthenium (Ru), and Silicon (Si). The electrical discharge properties are expected to be similar to that of pure tantalum. Two phase alloys of tantalum can be formed by adding increased amount of the second element or combinations thereof. Single phase alloys of tantalum are expected to be more malleable compared to two phase alloys and thus are preferred over two phase alloys due to their malleability and their more uniform electrical arc discharge properties. Referring to FIGS. 12 and 13, there is illustrated an electrical switch in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The electrical switch 10 is shown in a position wherein the electrical circuit through the switch is closed. Electrical switch 10 is comprised of ampoule or housing 12 that defines cavity 14. Housing 10 is usually made out of glass, but may be made out of any other suitable material as would be apparent to a person skilled in the art. At least two spaced electrodes 16 and 18 are provided such that each electrode extends through the housing 12 into the cavity 14 so as to be able to conduct electricity from the cavity 14 to outside of the housing. It will be apparent to a person skilled in the art that more than two electrodes may be used and there may be many possible configurations of electrodes to provide the desired electrical switching action. At least one of the electrodes 16 and 18, or both, is made or comprises of tantalum. Preferably, all of the electrodes would be tantalum. Within the cavity 14 is provided a melt pool or amount of liquid gallium or a liquid gallium alloy 20 in an amount sufficient to electrically connect and disconnect any two electrodes as a result of movement of the housing. The amount of liquid gallium or liquid gallium alloy 20 bridges the spaced electrodes 16 and 18 as shown in FIG. 1 thereby connecting the electrodes electrically. Referring to FIG. 13, the electrical switch 10 is shown in a position wherein the electrical circuit through the switch is open. Electrical switch 10 is physically oriented in a manner such that the amount of liquid gallium or liquid gallium alloy 20 does not bridge electrodes 16 and 18 such that an electric current may not flow between the electrodes. Referring to FIGS. 14 and 15, there is illustrated the electric switch 10 in a position wherein the electrical circuit through the switch is open (FIG. 14) and closed (FIG. 15), except that one of the electrodes referred to as common electrode 16 a remains in contact with the amount of liquid gallium or liquid gallium alloy 20 throughout the positioning of the switch, while arcing electrode 18 a intermittently contacts the amount of liquid gallium or liquid gallium alloy 20 as a result of changes in the switch orientation, as shown in FIG. 15. In an electric switch configuration in which there is a common electrode and one or more arcing electrodes, generally, only the arcing electrodes would be tantalum, though it may be preferable to have all of the electrodes to be comprised of tantalum. In some embodiments, tantalum wires may be used inserted into the ampoule, which carries the gallium alloy melt. In other embodiments, tantalum wire may be welded or brazed to low thermal expansion lead material, which is compatible with glass thermal expansion, thereby forming a good metal to glass seal. Generally, only the arcing electrode may be made from tantalum. However, since tantalum wire is not degraded by gallium, it could also be used as the non-arcing common electrode. Although various embodiments of the invention are disclosed herein, many adaptations and modifications may be made within the scope of the invention in accordance with the common general knowledge of those skilled in this art. Such modifications include the substitution of known equivalents for any aspect of the invention in order to achieve the same result in substantially the same way. In the specification, the word �comprising� is used as an open-ended term, substantially equivalent to the phrase �including, but not limited to�, and the word �comprises� has a corresponding meaning. Citation of references herein shall not be construed as an admission that such references are prior art to the present invention. All publications, including but not limited to patents and patent applications, cited in this specification are incorporated herein by reference as if each individual publication were specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference herein and as though fully set forth herein.

A calculated risk! Following a costly victory on the planet Malastare, Chancellor Palpatine orders Jedi Knights Mace Windu and Anakin Skywalker to transport a fearsome Zillo beast captured during the battle back to Coruscant. After seeing that not even a lightsaber could harm the beast, Chancellor Palpatine hopes to unlock the secret of its invulnerability to create new armor for the Republic's clone troopers. Tensions run high as the most dangerous life form in the galaxy touches down on its most populous planet.
Jedi Fortune Cookie: "The most dangerous beast is the beast within."
International Air Date:
United Kingdom- April 10, 2010 on Sky Premiere
King Kong:
The Zillo Beast is similar to the famous giant gorilla. For starters, the concept of a creature who was the most powerful being in their own world, only to be captured and taken to a foreign land and eventually escape. Also, the Zillo Beast rampaging through Coruscant in search of Palpatine is similar to Kong's search for Fay. The only real difference is that Kong did it out of desire while the Zillo Beast was driven by hatred for the Chancellor. The Zillo Beast climbing on top of the senate building and capturing the craft containing Palpatine is just like when Kong climbed the Empire State Building after abducting Fay. Most of all, the Zillo Beast's death was similar to that of King Kong, with the clone ships circling it while bombarding it with poison in place of planes shooting at King Kong.

Gillard responds to boat tragedy
Prime Minister Julia Gillard responds to the Christmas Island boat tragedy.
HEATHER EWART, PRESENTER: I spoke to the Prime Minister Julia Gillard in our Sydney studio just a short time ago.Prime Minister, welcome to the program.
JULIA GILLARD, PRIME MINISTER: Thankyou very much, Heather.
HEATHER EWART: Are you completely satisfied that the authorities on Christmas Island did all that they could to avert the scale of this tragedy?
JULIA GILLARD: On the advice available to me, people deployed quickly, that is our Navy personnel and our Customs and border protection personnel, and of course Christmas Islanders themselves came out to try and help people who were in the sea. Inevitably, we will get finer detail and more information over time, but I do think we should be congratulating the Navy personnel and the Customs and border Protection personnel who put themselves in harm's way to rescue people who were in the water. The advice to me too is - and Minister O'Connor, who is on Christmas Island, has made this very publicly clear - the advice to me is the weather was extreme. We are talking about very rough seas. And that's why the Navy vessel and the Customs vessel were actually sheltering on the other side of the island.
HEATHER EWART: Now at your news conference this afternoon, you did give a timeline, but even given the dreadful weather conditions, there does seem to be a gap between the time of notification and actually getting to these people and trying to save them. Can you explain that?
JULIA GILLARD: As I'm advised, the alarm was raised at around 5.48 am Christmas Island time. The Pirie, the Navy vessel, was basically put into action, toll to respond at 6 am, so, 12 minutes later, and then there were people on the inflatable boats that had been launched at the scene by 7.01. That's the advice to me and that's been made public through Customs making available the timeline. So, as I'm advised, people responded as rapidly as they could given the circumstances, given the geography and the weather.
HEATHER EWART: Now you called a series of inquiries into this whole tragedy, including a working group of politicians made up of Labor, Liberals, the Greens and independents. You phoned Tony Abbott about this. The Liberals are now saying they're not playing ball. What was your strategy in calling for this?
JULIA GILLARD: Well, I want to be very clear about the offer that I've put to the Opposition and of course to other parliamentarians. The offer I've put is for the Opposition to have its shadow spokespeople, particularly Mr Morrison and Mr Keenan join Government ministers Chris Bowen and Minister O'Connor and a representative of the Greens and the independent parliamentarians, to receive continuing reports from the agencies that are responding to the incident - the AFP, our Customs and border protection people, Defence and so on. Now the purpose of that is I don't want us debating the facts, and Heather, you would recall in times past things like children overboard, where for months and months and months the most basic facts were not clear to Australians. Had an asylum seeker thrown a child in the water?: not clear for months and months and months. I want to take a different approach. I want all parliamentarians to have the benefit of the facts on the table. Now, I anticipate that given a look at the facts, people may well take different views and advocate for different policy solutions. That's a democracy. Healthy, vibrant national conversations are a good thing. But let's get the facts on the table and the best way to do that is for a continuing stream of reports to go to representatives of all parliamentarians.
HEATHER EWART: But do you think that the Opposition smelt a rat and viewed this as clever tricky politics and perhaps a way to silence criticism of the Government?
JULIA GILLARD: Well there's no any of that from my point of view. Quite the reverse. I said in my press conference today, and this is my view, that we will have debate, a national conversation about asylum seeker and refugee policy. We've had one already and I suspect we will have one with a renewed intensity following this tragic incident, very, very tragic incident. But let's get the facts on the table. The facts are the facts and then people will debate the policy. This is a mechanism to make sure everybody has got the same information.
HEATHER EWART: Do you have blood on your hands, as one commentator calling for your resignation has suggested?
JULIA GILLARD: I've obviously seen that in today's newspapers and what I would say to that, Heather, is no-one, no-one should let the people smugglers off the hook here. The people smugglers who ply this evil trade, who seek to profit on human misery with callous disregard to human life - and let's just reflect for a moment on the tragic loss of life in this incident - people smugglers who ply this evil trade are responsible, and no-one should be saying that somehow they should be let off the hook. The Government, of course, is responding to this evil trade by working with our region to create a regional processing centre and a regional protection framework to take out of the hands of people smugglers the very product that they sell.
HEATHER EWART: But is that really working? Does this show - and you say you expect a debate - that aspects of the policy should now be up for grabs, you should have a rethink.
JULIA GILLARD: Well, I'm very happy to go through our policy. Our policy is to have more assets patrolling our border than have ever been available to patrol our borders before. We did make some changes to the Migration Act as a government - that's absolutely true, and not one member of Parliament objected to or opposed those changes. The Opposition did not oppose those changes. We have as a government invested resources in working in our region to disrupt people smuggling and we've enjoyed some success at that, with around 240 disruptions stopping thousands of people who would have sought to put themselves in the hands of people smugglers with the potential tragic consequences that we've seen here. We've increased penalties for people smuggling and we maintain a rigorous mandatory detention policy.
HEATHER EWART: Would you at the very least consider shutting down the Christmas Island facility in the light of what's happened?
JULIA GILLARD: Christmas Island has been a destination that people smugglers have sought to go to because of its proximity to Indonesia, so it's the geography that puts Christmas Island in that position. It is far closer to Indonesia than it is to the Australian mainland.
HEATHER EWART: Do you feel that the Labor Party over the years has allowed itself to be boxed into a corner on this issue by the conservative parties? Why not just state in clear, simple terms that the number of asylum seekers coming here is relatively small?
JULIA GILLARD: I've done that, Heather, and I'm happy to again. My approach is ...
HEATHER EWART: Do you need to show even stronger leadership on it then?
JULIA GILLARD: Well, my approach as Prime Minister to this issue has been to tell the truth, to explain to people the problem, to put it in its proper context. And I deliberately, when I first spoke as Prime Minister on this issue, adopted Julian Burnside's words about how many years, 20 years to fill the MCG at current rates of arrival to give people a mental picture about what we're talking about here. And so, I've wanted to get the facts out there. And of course, the facts include what I've put to you about our border protection, about our work in the region, about how we've assisted law enforcement throughout our region with new resources ...
HEATHER EWART: But that hasn't stopped a tragedy like this, though, has it?
JULIA GILLARD: Well, we've seen in Australia's history tragedies like this in the past and we're seeing a dreadful tragedy over these days, and of course search and rescue is continuing even as you and I speak.
HEATHER EWART: Do you accept that something here is just not working?
JULIA GILLARD: I accept that this is a difficult problem, a global problem. We're seeing large numbers of people moving around the world, fleeing war, fleeing persecution, fleeing famine. Australia is one nation that sees people arrive on its doorstep, but look at the countries in Europe and the numbers that they face, America and the numbers they face. The Canadians of course have started to deal with this problem too in terms of boat arrivals. What we can do as a country is have strong border protection, strong laws on people smuggling, work with our regional neighbours on law enforcement, have mandatory detention, but I do want to do more than that. We want to achieve a regional protection framework and regional processing centre which would take out of the hands of people smugglers the very product they sell. Why would people move from a regional processing centre if they got on a boat and were just returned to the centre? That's what we are trying to achieve.
HEATHER EWART: Julia Gillard, thankyou for joining us.
JULIA GILLARD: Thankyou.

There is no community as sacred as the family. When we reflect on the Holy Family, Jesus, Mary and St. Joseph, we see modeled for us how to be as a member of our own family. Whether we're a father, a mother, or a child, the Holy Family shows us how to be. It is important we remind ourselves of this often.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - June is Heartbeat of the Family month on Catholic Online and it is a special campaign where we honor the role of the family in our lives. All of us are members of a family. Even if our parents are gone and we live alone, we are still members of the human family. We belong to a Church community, or at least one is available to us. And of course, most of us do have family members about us.
The question we must always keep before us is, how to be as a member of this family? When we make choices, those choices do not simply affect us, but they affect our family as well. For example, when we choose what hobbies to pursue or what programs to watch on television, we impact our family. When we decide what music will be allowed in our house or which websites to visit, these decisions are not made in a vacuum.
Take a look at the Heartbeat of the Family collection.
While our first duty is always to God, a close second is to our family. It is important that we take time to reflect on our choices and what impact those choices have on our family. Am I serving my family with the choices I make?
And if I am single, am I serving my human family by the choices I make? Can the reflection of my parish family be seen in how I behave?
Families are busy, and we often leave little room for reflection and for God. Mass becomes secondary to Sunday activities and we can be so busy, so in a hurry to eat that we skip praying before meals, assuming that God knows our gratitude. We refuse to pray in public because we don't want to offend anybody and we listen to the music we like and watch television we find entertaining, regardless of the values it imparts because it's fun and easy to let things be.
However, we are not called to follow an easy example.
The Holy Family was devoted to duty. Joseph reported for Octavian's census, traveling with his family a great distance to comply. Mary was a doting mother, always caring for her Son, even after his crucifixion. Joseph was loyal, he respected Mary's obligation to God, her chastity and vocation. Joseph followed a vocation of his own, teaching his son carpentry and certainly protecting him as he grew.
We too are called to do the same. We must respect our spouses and the vows they make with respect to God. We must care for our children, teaching them, providing for them, and raising them up in the faith which will make all the difference in their lives to come. As children, we must be obedient and respectful, honoring our fathers and our mothers.
To commemorate the family, Catholic Shopping .com has a selection of family products available for those who wish to be always reminded of the example we should follow. Every household should have a small shrine, or at least a single item to serve as a reminder of the importance of the Holy Family.
Browse the Heartbeat of the Family collection today and choose your item of remembrance. Honor the Holy Family and your own.
May your family know the peace and wisdom of the Lord and remain strong as long as you shall live.

The President correctly clowned Ed Henry for that absurd question yesterday about whether he secretly wanted gas prices to rise to bring about a renewable energy revolution. "Ed, just from a political perspective, do you think the President of the United States, going into reelection, wants gas prices to go up even higher," Obama asked. "Is there anybody here who thinks that makes a lot of sense?"

ABC This Week's Stephanopoulus Helps Gingrich Spin Tale on Gas Prices |
By: Scarecrow Sunday March 4, 2012 12:15 pm |
Why is it that ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN thought that the politician America needed to hear from this week was Newt Gingrich, a candidate who's been thoroughly rejected by all by the most delusional and extreme Republican voters and has no chance of becoming President? Even if it hadn't been a ghastly week, with Republican icons insulting women and degrading the national discourse while the GOP leadership and Presidential candidates hid, the idea of giving the man who has spent 20 years contributing to our declining politics yet another national platform would be inexcusable for any supposedly news entity.
Every viewer knows that any interview of Newt Gingrich usually results in an uninterrupted commercial for himself, his lies, and his fantasies. With a weak interviewer like ABC's George Stephanopoulus, that means we get 10 minutes of misrepresentations, misdirection and evasions with little or no pushback, leaving the audience either frustrated or more misinformed than they were before.

US Intelligence Community: Iran Is Not Actively Building a Nuclear Weapon |
By: David Dayen Saturday February 25, 2012 10:00 am |
To the extent that the federal government has a role to play in lowering gas prices, one of the biggest things they can do is stop making the world believe that Iran faces an imminent attack on their nuclear facilities that will potentially inflame the entire Middle East and threaten the security of oil shipments. So it's fortuitous that this intelligence assessment was released in the past 48 hours.
President Mostly Speaks Truth About Gas Prices |
By: David Dayen Friday February 24, 2012 9:15 am |
So we're going to have another fatuous debate about gas prices in this country, as if the President has a ticker on his desk that he can set to the 9/10 of a cent. President Obama made the effort to mock this. As a national politician he obviously feels he cannot say "there's not much I can do," but he came extremely close in this speech.

Republicans Cannot Handle Decent Jobs Reports |
By: David Dayen Friday January 6, 2012 3:28 pm |
This is a bind for Republicans, who have no Plan B if the economy improves. But there are non-insulting-to-the-intelligence ways of describing the employment situation in America. This just saps any belief that these are people with one shred of sense about the economy.
More on the Economy in 2012: Making Up the Auto and Home Sales Gap? |

The biggest reason I can find for economic optimism in 2012 is a belief that people will eventually have to buy new cars and form households, so why not this year? That appears to be the animating thought behind Matt Yglesias' cheery forecast in the new year. But the economic story is a lot more mixed.
Feinberg Expects to Pay Out Only One-Fifth of Total BP Claims Fund |
By: David Dayen Wednesday June 1, 2011 5:07 pm |
There may be ongoing claims that will drain out a bit more money. But it won't be much more than 20% of the total funds negotiated that will be used. I don't know whether this can be attributed to program eligibility or a lack of publicity or bad design. But that number seems quite low compared to the devastation that BP wreaked upon the Gulf Coast.

Hepatitis C is difficult to understand, and there are LOTS of "experts" out there who are more than willing to take advantage of the uninformed. Please feel free to call our National Support Line for more detailed and personal attention related to hepatitis C (number listed above).
The folks who keep the NHCC in operation are unique people. ALL are volunteers who help fund our daily operations, tend to our telephone support lines, attend health fairs, and do just about anything necessary to help the NHCC continue to operate. These folks are required to have extensive and personal hepatitis C experience behind them before speaking to patients or family members about the disease, but this is just so we can make sure that what's shared is honest, trustworthy, and that our reputation remains stellar and accurate as always.
Times are difficult for most folks and money is tight. However, we too have significant expenses just keeping the NHCC in operation, and this is why it's so important that we reach out to good people like yourselves who will help us remain active for the "cause".
Please remember us in your prayers as well as with your financial contributions, and we promise that we'll do our very best to be here when you need us!

Desert Racing For Hep C
Code 3 Racing and the NHCC are teaming up again in 2003 for hep C awareness in the desert. Keith and Brian, both Nevada firefighters/paramedics, are the owners/drivers of the vehicle which bears the name of the "National Hepatitis C Coalition, Inc." on the front. Both men are close to someone who's lives have been affected by hepatitis C and they've graciously chosen their hobby of desert racing as a way to bring hep C awareness to the racing community.
We'd like to thank Keith, Brian, and the Code 3 crew for continuing to help us get the word out about hepatitis C!!!

I'm working in a project that in some point, I have to decrypt strings like this s?\a?B???p?????
but I don't know which type of encode were used.
Here are the original string to be decode: c58HzUKIBYUfh3DVm/qa3Q==
string base64Encoded = "c58HzUKIBYUfh3DVm/qa3Q==";string base64Decoded;byte[] data = System.Convert.FromBase64String(base64Encoded);base64Decoded = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetString(data);
And this s?\a?B???p?????
is the result.
Someone can help me? Any type of help I would be glad!
I'm sending the contents of this Flex form (Don't ask why) over to node. There is a post paramteter called "photo" which is a base64 encoded image.
Contents of photo get sent over ok. Problem is when I am trying to decode the content and write them to a file.
var fs = require("fs"); fs.writeFile("arghhhh.jpg", new Buffer(request.body.photo, "base64").toString(), function(err) {});
I've tried toString("binary") as well. But it seems node doesnt decode all of the content. It seems it only decodes jpg header info and leaves the rest.
Can anyone please help me with this?
I am busy with a small android app. The appplication connects to a WCF using restful that in turn connects to a database. The application does work. Now I want to send a Image to the database.
[OperationContract][WebGet(UriTemplate = "sendImage/{seq}", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]string sendImage(string seq);
On the android application I encode a Image making use of BASE64.
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.ic_launcher);ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); bm.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, baos); //bm is the bitmap object byte[] b = baos.toByteArray(); String encodedImage = Base64.encodeToString(b, Base64.DEFAULT);TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.defaults);textView.setText(encodedImage);
This encryption does work. The problem is that I now what to send the string encodedImage
to the WCF to write to the database. Thus the string is passed in the URI.
"htp://_____.__/serv/ManagementSystem.svc/sendImage/" + encodedImage
The problem is that the string that I get from encoded contains /
This causes a problem in the URI as it picks up the /
as a change of parameter, thus picking up that it is not a valid request. Is there a way to remove the /
without compromising the decoding or is there a better way of converting a image to a string and back to an image?
I have a base64 encoded string S="aGVsbG8=", now i want to decode the string into ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32, CP-1256, ISO-8659-1, ISO-8659-2, ISO-8659-6, ISO-8659-15 and Windows-1252, How i can decode the string into the mentioned format. For UTF-16 I tried following code, but it was giving error "'bytes' object has no attribute 'deocde'".base64.b64decode(encodedBase64String).deocde('utf-8')
I have a binary string of the form
"000000110111010100110110001010001010110111010110010001111111101010000001" # for example
to encode to base 64, i use pack and encode_base64
my $base64 = encode_base64 pack 'B*', $binaryString;
Which I would then get.
I would like to revert back to the original binary form of the string, I tried
my $binString = decode_base64 $base64;
but that returns
How can i revert back the original binary string?
