Boko Haram gains ground
Over the weekend, Boko Haram continued its assault on Damboa in northeastern Nigeria's Borno state, gaining ground while sending local villagers running for their lives.
Sitting on the main road to state capital Maiduguri, Damboa has been besieged by the terrorist group since July 4, when Boko Haram attacked a tank battalion base on the town's outskirts.
On July 6, the town's police station and army camp were hit by the group, sending the security forces scurrying. Much to the town's misfortune, it was left unprotected and under siege.
The latest attack began on July 18 as suspected Boko Haram fighters hit Damboa at dawn, throwing explosives into homes and firing on scrambling villagers. The insurgents reportedly used rocket-propelled grenades and homemade bombs. The group also burnt down the town's market. Later in the day, Boko Haram struck again, killing many more as the remaining villagers were attempting to bury their dead.
As the onslaught subsided, Boko Haram fighters reportedly hoisted their black al-Qaeda-inspired flag over the town, claiming victory with over 100 villagers dead.
A local official told Agence France Presse, "Those who could not flee surrendered and were killed by the insurgents." Additionally, residents of nearby towns had begun to flee after having received a letter from Boko Haram threatening to attack and take over their land. A representative from Nigeria's National Emergency Management Agency said they had records of 15,204 people who fled Damboa and other nearby villages.
Responding to the events, Defence spokesman Major-General Chris Olukolade commented yesterday, "We are not conceding any portion of this country to any terrorist group .... Our patrols are active and they are stepping up their activities to reverse any insecurity there."
In recent months, Boko Haram has amplified its offensive across Nigeria, increasing both the frequency and the ferocity of its attacks. The incidents over the weekend may mark a turning point, however, as the group appears to have taken new ground and continued to hold it, rather than simply conducting hit-and-run attacks. Last week, Boko Haram destroyed a bridge south of the town, essentially cutting Damboa and Maiduguri off from the outside. This act, in combination with the weekend's territorial win, may be part of a larger, longterm strategy by the terrorist group to take ground and establish its own state.
READER COMMENTS: "Boko Haram gains ground"
Posted by Lint at July 23, 2014 12:01 AM ET:
Nigera better respond to these marauding Islamists "proportionately" else Hollywood celebs and Islamic sociopaths all over the world will equate Nigeria to Israel.
Posted by Evan at July 23, 2014 9:41 AM ET:
It certainly seems that capturing and holding ground is BH's new strategy for the region. They already control swathes of territory that straddles multiple, ambiguous borders, i.e. Cameroon, and the Sambisa forest. It looks like they've used those secure, remote areas to push out in a bid to win more territory/resources.
Where does BH fit in to the whole IS/AQ schism? Have they said which side they support or pledged bayat to Baghdadi or Big Z or anything? It certainly seems possible that BH could be emboldened by the IS's recent gains, as well as their longtime, nominal control of large swathes of land and lucrative infrastructure. BH sees that, and thinks,"we should have an Islamic emirate," or "we should control this or that."
They've seen the power that comes with controll over land, resources, infrastructure, people, etc, and now they want in on the action.
Do the Nigerians have any sort of airlift capability, like helo's ?
How important, strategically, is the bridge? Can it be repaired?
I wonder sometimes what these people are made of, and it's always interesting to see how a country's warriors fight, and how they conduct themselves, and the thing I wonder about sometimes is just wether or not the rest of the world, particularly the Nigerian armed forces and associated militias in this instance, really have what it takes to defeat groups like Boko Haram. Do they really have the strength to do what's necessary? All the weapons in the world, and all the most high tech gear won't make a damn bit of difference if the men behind that gear and those weapons lack the conviction and fortitude to do what they must to survive.
I don't necessarily mean to pick on the Nigerians by any means, they are just one of many many countries that I have noticed a startling disparity in between the states' military apparatus, and Islamic insurgents, mostly of the AQ/IS breed.
Is it really that these guys from AQ/IS are just naturally tougher somehow or someway? No. Are they just smarter? No. I believe it's part ideology, and part training.
What are the Nigerians fighting for? What motivates them? What do they care if a village from some far off tribe is being attacked? Where do their loyalties lie? Are they more tribal, or regional, ethnic? What makes their gears turn, so to speak?

Arbor Realty Trust, Inc. Q1 2010 Earnings Call Transcript
Clearly, these substantial debt retirements are major step of positioning us more favorably for the future. It will improve the right side of our balance sheet significantly by reducing the leverage and recourse that substantially leaving us poised to take advantage of the opportunities that will exist in the market.
We continue to focus heavily on increasing and maintaining our liquidity. And as of today, we have approximately $73 million of cash on hand and around 20 million of cash collateral posted against our swaps.
We're also pleased with our ability to manage our CDO vehicles sufficiently, receiving all of the cash distributions from these vehicles in 2009 and the first two quarters of 2010. And while there can be no assurances that our CDO vehicles will continue to cash flow in the future we will remain focus on optimizing and utilizing these facilities by transferring assets and originating loans where available and appropriate.
The effective management of our CDOs has contributed greatly to a reduction of our warehouse and term debt facilities, which as I have mentioned earlier has reduced the amount due on the discount to pay off with Wachovia.
Although we have recorded significant losses in the 2008 and 2009 we have done an effective job of managing through the downturn by restructuring our balance sheet. This include repurchasing the Wachovia and trust-preferred debt at deep discounts as well as restructuring the substantial amount of our assets creating a higher quality portfolio going forward and execute an effective strategy of mitigating the offsetting losses from these assets to the repurchase of other debt and monetizing our equity investments. In fact we've recorded $54 million in gains from these debt repurchase in 2008 and 2009, 47 million in the first quarter of 2010 and another 13 million already in the second quarter of 2010. As we stated earlier we're expecting a significant gain from the completion of the retirements of the Wachovia debt.

Saline County Sheriff Arrested For Intoxication
Benton police say Saline County Sheriff Bruce Pennington has been arrested for public intoxication and resisting arrest.
A news release from Benton Police Lt. Kevin Russell says officers called to a Benton restaurant Saturday night by witnesses who said an intoxicated person was getting into a vehicle found Pennington sitting in a vehicle in the parking lot and suspected he was intoxicated.
The release says Pennington became belligerent and was taken to the police department - but was not arrested due to the "unique situation" and was later released to a family member.
A phone call to a number listed for Pennington was answered with a message saying the number is not in service. A call to Benton police on Sunday was referred to Russell - who was said to not be available until Monday.

From the time the 2A Paoli sectional draw took place almost two weeks ago, it appeared that in-town rivals Clarksville and Providence would be on a collision course to reach the championship game.
The possible grudge match became a reality Friday night as the Pioneers (15-6) dispatched Henryville, 58-40 in the early game at Paoli High School, and No. 2 Clarksville (20-2) took control early, and defeated Eastern 67-45 in the nightcap.
"To be able to have a team play for a championship in any sport is a very exciting thing," Providence coach Lou Lefevre said. "Hopefully we'll be able to take advantage of the fact that [Clarksville] will not be very intimidated by watching us play."
"It's a basketball game," Clarksville coach Jason Connell said. "We view it as another game, we're blessed to play in the championship. It is Providence, and they are two miles down the road from us, and we know each other well. It's going to be a lot of fun."
The Pioneers and Generals — winners of the last two Paoli sectional crowns, respectively — will matchup in the championship game tonight at 7:30 p.m.
The Pioneers struggled a bit out of the gate, committing two turnovers in the first 90 seconds of the contest. They entered the second quarter tied with the upstart Hornets (3-18), and after reserve guard Cole Hairston converted a 3-point play, trailed 16-13 with 6:35 remaining in the half.
"That was probably the most selfish first quarter we played all year long," Lefevre said. "It was an unintelligent first quarter, and then, all of a sudden, we acted like we knew what we were doing. But, we put ourselves in a position where this game became a struggle. And it was. All the way."
Reserve guard Brock Hayden's free throw line jumper on the next Pioneer possession kickstarted an 11-0 Providence run over the next three minutes. After center Nick Hayes bulled his way inside for a lay-in and Ben Shahroudi sank 1 of 2 free throws for the Pioneers, Providence led 31-18 with one minute remaining in the first half.
The Pioneers entered halftime ahead by 10 at 31-21. Hayes — a 6-foot-2 senior — notched 12 of his game-high 16 points in the first half on 5 of 6 shooting from the field.
One key statistical area where the Pioneers held a clear advantage was on the boards, where they dominated the Hornets, 38-24. Grant Goad grabbed 10 boards to pace the Pioneers.
For Henryville coach Dan Carmony, his troops showed substantial improvement this season over 2012-13, when they failed to register a win. With no seniors and only three juniors, the Hornets look to improve even further during next year's campaign.
There were signs in Friday's game that Henryville was ready to make that leap.
Late in the third quarter, the Hornets whittled the Pioneer lead down to four at 37-33 after freshman guard Jacob Janek drove to the basket and scored, drawing a foul from Providence's Brad Koerner. Janek missed the free throw, and Hayes scored for Providence on the other end next for a 39-33 lead. The Pioneers drew the lead out to double digits throughout the fourth quarter and put the Hornets away down the stretch.
"These kids played hard, and they really showed a lot of effort on offense, defense, you name it," Carmony said. "We'll work hard over the summer and look forward to even more improvement next season."
The Generals couldn't point to any similar struggles as they took care of business early against the Musketeers (5-16).
They opened the game with a 14-2 run over the first four minutes and 30 seconds with a short jumper by guard D.J. Coleman that capped the run for Clarksville.
The Generals led 23-11 at the end of the first quarter and 39-20 at the half.
While senior guards Calvin McEwen and Andrew Jones were their usual productive selves, the Generals also received great play from reserve guard Evan Guenthner, who was 3 of 3 from beyond the 3-point line in the first half.
"Calvin and Andrew, everyone knows they're going to get theirs," Connell said. "D.J., Evan, Marquise [Parrish] — they're the key. If we're able to get them rolling, we become a very difficult team to beat. Those guys have to step up and hit some shots, and defend well for us."
Coleman led the Generals with 20 points and 6 rebounds. He was one of four Clarksville players with three 3-pointers — McEwen, Jones and Guenthner being the others.
Defensively, Clarksville came up with 11 steals and forced 18 Eastern turnovers, something Connell made note of after the game.
"Our identify has been — what kind of defensive team can we be?" he said. "I thought we stayed in a good stance for the most part, played with our hands on, instead of our on people, and slid our feet pretty well. We stayed active."
Jones scored 17 points for the Generals. McEwen added 14.
Eastern junior Alex Doebler led the Musketeers with 17 points. Seniors Dalton Jackson, Jode Olesh, Jack Hayes, Dakota Snider, Jacob Timmons and Dakota Jackson played their last game for the Musketeers on Friday.
Doebler will help lead the core of Musketeers next year, and underclassmen Jessie Murphy, Grant Newcomb and Alex Hobson
will look to contribute.
"We were inconsistent all season and that something we need to work on going towards next season," Eastern coach Scott Newcomb said. "We have to be willing to work hard. Games are fun. What's not so fun is going into the weight room and getting stronger when no one's watching you. We've got to make that committment."

text: Mr Palm's speech during the Campaing Against Violence in Schools on 1 March 2011National Programme Campaign: "For a friendly school, pro positive behaviors" We all want the best for our children. We want them to become confident, honest citizens, who can provide for themselves and their family. We want them to hold up the values of a democratic society. We want them to be fair and just. We want them to become trusting. We want them to become a respected member of ours and their community. We can do a lot in our family, for this to happen. We can be good role models, good father, good mothers. Everything that children experience will imprint itself on their memory and character. A child who is lovingly cared for, will most likely be a good parent. A child who is always treated fair, will become a person whom people will ask for advice when they cannot resolve their own conflicts. Next to the family, the school is the most important aspect of life, that forms our children. Children spend more time in schools or educational institutions than anywhere else outside their homes. So we want our schools to be friendly and welcoming. When children look forward to going to school, they will learn better academically, and they will become more sociable persons that will succeed in life. If children don't like to go to school, for fear of punishment, for fear of failure, or for fear of being pushed around by teachers and bullied by classmates, then these children are not only missing the great opportunity to learn. They are also more likely to adopt the same unwanted behaviors, and they may become unsociable or violent themselves. So, what we want for our own children, we want for ALL children. And as appointed or elected officials, as decision-makers, as teachers, as parents, as the press and the media, we want schools to be child friendly places, were physical violence, emotional or psychological punishment, or rough bullying between pupils has no place. The programme that we are going to launch today is exactly about this. Too many children report that they have been subject to bullying by peers, or corporal or psychological punishment. Children say that discrimination and humiliation hurt them deeply and it doesn't go away easily. All children are at risk by the very fact that they are children. However, some children, because of their social status, gender, ethnic origin, or disability are more vulnerable. The best way to deal with violence against or between children is to stop it before it happens. Every teacher knows there are difficult situations in the classroom. The programme being launched today is about alternative ways of discipline that is consistent with the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The programme shows how to solve conflicts between teachers and students, or between students, without challenging the authority of the teacher, and without humiliating students or using force. The teacher must remain the person whom children can trust. We suggest putting into place well publicized, safe, confidential and accessible mechanisms for children and their families to report violence. We also suggest to legislate the prohibition of corporal punishment in educational institutions and put in place mechanisms to enforce this. I talked yesterday to a headmistress of a school in Lezha district. She assured me that her school was a child-friendly place, where pupils like to come and learn. All schools can be like this. I wish the organizers all success for this campaign. |

How to add a scroll-to-top button on Chrome [Tip]
Posted By Kent On July 9, 2014 @ 5:53 AM In Browsers | 1 Comment
If you want to quickly scroll to the top of any page without using the arrow keys or your mouse wheel, you can easily do so by choosing any of the methods listed below. Apparently, these methods will help you browse the web more efficiently. It will also help you save time and effort.
Method One – Use the shortcut key on your keyboard
Did you know that you can easily scroll to the topmost portion of any page on Chrome by simply pressing the shortcut key on your keyboard? This option is great especially if you do not want to install any third-party browser app or extension.
So, if you think that you have scrolled down far enough to back to the top, you can simply press the "Fn + Home" keys on your keyboard. Remember, you must press the keys simultaneously. If you do it properly, the page will automatically scroll to the topmost portion of the page that you're currently viewing. No need for you to scroll up using the scroll bar or mouse wheel. Plus, it's way faster.
If you want to quickly scroll down to the bottom-most portion of the page, just press the "Fn + End" keys on your keyboard. This action will do the opposite and will quickly take you to the page's footer.
Method Two – Install a third-party browser extension
If, for some reason, the above mentioned method fails to work, you can opt to install a third-party extension on your Chrome web browser. Here's how to make it work:
By knowing how to quickly scroll to the top or bottom of any page on Chrome, you can avoid the tedious task of scrolling on long pages. Come to think of it, there's no need for you to search for the home key, drag the scroll bar or hold the arrow up key on your keyboard.

Paula, hope your energy is up soon
Paula.. how soon does your body go into ketosis?
Paula, hope your energy is up soon
I used to have the "if I lived alone I'd have no stress" thoughts too! My stress all went bye-bye when my step daughters moved out and took the stress with them! 10 years of marriage and the only fights between hubby and I were about his spoiled daughters! Once they moved out - no more fights! The past 16 months have been very peaceful in our home! Except for the rare occassion when an issue with one of the girls or the ex comes up again. He still has no concept of boundaries. But, I can live with the rare instances - its only about twice a year now.
Sometimes you just have to stand back and let things play out the way they will. Unless the other parties involved are willing to take advice and constructive criticism there isn't much you can do. On the other hand......... sometimes you have to just take the bull by the horns! Thats what I had to do to save my marriage. I told hubby he was going to counseling with me or the marriage was OVER! The counselor helped him see how his lack of boundaries with his daughters was just as damaging to them as it was to our marriage. When he finally took a stand - the problems went away (cuz they moved out) Not saying you want anyone moving out............ just saying, you might need to be a bit forceful to get this resolved and find the peace in your home and the harmony in your family. A little family therapy is a good thing if you find the right therapist.
Pebbles, I went and slapped your wee goat in the middle of your journal without reading a thing.....and then I read the last few pages. I am in tears for you right now.
These are hard times, but you will get through this come hell or high water. Firstly thou - you have got to keep strong and well. No point in you getting yourself so low that you are unable to function.
Second - our eldest daughter was diagnosed with ADD at 14. From the age of 2 I would see the Doctor regularly, as I knew that something was just not right. Her inability to understand consequences amoung other things. My Doctor told me several times that I was just a bad mother. DH got a hold of that one, and hasn't ever let it go !!!!!
Anyway when she went away to boarding school other people noticed her odd behaviour, she was referred to counselling, then a psychiatrist, etc.... She was put on ritalin, cos I didn't know any better, but as she got older was using it to keep her weight down. So I insisted that she wasn't prescribed any more.
She is now 27, mother of two, and she worries me terribly at times. Her lack of concentration is appaulling, her demanding attention seeking behaviour frustrating, her inability to finish a task infuriating.
Often ADD and AHDH go hand in hand with depression, which she suffers from. Also anxiety. She takes meds for both.
Is your son on any anti anxiety or antidepresent meds ?
Does he keep a diary - fantastic tool for our daughter
Really prioritize what you are going to chip him on, and stress this to your DH too. You can't be constantly at ADDs, because they don't process half of what you tell them anyway !!!!
A good psycologist will guide you through this trying time as well, but make it a family affair - because everyone needs to be on board.
Our middle DD said to me recently that she used to get so upset because we spent so much time with our eldest DD. We weren't conscious of it at the time, but we ended up spending 80% of our time with 20% of our offspring !!!
The other thing that I find now is sugar affects eldest DD severly. Does your son eat much sugar/processed food/carbs ???
anyway Paula, we are all here for you.
Take care

Don't worry about posting the pic of my boy without reading. My Primal journal has documented some big ups and downs in my life including the loss of my Mother to cancer, but I do believe that things are changing for the better and I am getting a handle on things again.

I leave home at 7am and get back around 9pm. I was able to do more than just survive it...I kicked its' butt.
Things are improving on the home front. My husband said to me yesterday, "I can tell when you are really solid on your program, you get this sexy glow."

John Morris: An eye-witness to the rise of photojournalism
As a life-long photo editor, John Morris shepherded some of the 20th century's most iconic images and most well-regarded photographers.
Robert Marquand
When John Morris presented his press card for a Sarkozy-Obama event at the Élysée Palace, French officials were stunned. The card for "Correspondent 114" was not only dated 1944 (Mr. Morris used it after D-Day), but it was issued in London from the office of Charles de Gaulle, father of modern France, leader of the Resistance.
Morris got into the press conference.
He is a man who's kept a warm seat on history's front row. As a lifelong photo editor, Morris shepherded some of the 20th century's most iconic images and most well-regarded photographers: Robert Capa was a close friend. So was W. Eugene Smith and Henri Cartier-Bresson. For Morris they weren't "famous," but colleagues, often quite fallible – as Morris admits amid new doubts about the authenticity of "Fallen Soldier," one of Mr. Capa's most famous images from the Spanish Civil War. (The photo purports to show the instant of a militiaman's death.)
"I don't know about that shot," Morris says. "What I believe in is the overall veracity of Robert Capa, even though he could be a rogue."
Morris was London photo editor for Life magazine in 1943, was present at the creation of the upstart photography agency Magnum, and helped conceive the "Family of Man" exhibit in 1954. He's spent a life pioneering high quality images in a news medium that, when he started, treated photos as filler.

The Best Blu-ray & DVD Releases of the Week: 'Drug War,' 'Maniac,' 'Pacific Rim' and More
Features By Rob Hunter on October 15, 2013 | Comments (1)Welcome back to This Week In Discs! If you see something you like, click on the title to buy it from Amazon. See You Tomorrow Everyone (UK) Satoru Watarai (Gaku Hamada) graduates from primary school with only one certainty. He plans on never leaving the "projects" where he lives. The gated community of apartment complexes also features stores, restaurants, recreation areas and more, and Satoru sees no reason to leave. As the years pass by he watches as his friends move away, he loses the love of his life, and he begins to question his physical inability to set foot outside the projects. Director Yoshihiro Nakamura is no stranger to ridiculously good cinema, and anyone who's seen Fish Story, Golden Slumber, or A Boy & His Samurai knows that he mixes entertainment and emotion in wonderfully rare ways. His latest lacks a fantastical element or song-related hook, and instead focuses on the presumably stunted life of one man affected by a singular traumatic moment. The first half plays like a loosely melancholy comedy before a shift sets in to up the emotional stakes dramatically, and the result is an incredibly affecting look at the intersection of fate and the life we make of our own will.

'Plush' Trailer Tells us More About Emily Browning's Latest Turn as a Sexy Bad Girl
Movie News By Nathan Adams on September 9, 2013 | Comments (1)Though most of us first met Emily Browning as the cute young lady in the family-friendly Lemony Snicket movie, in more recent years she's grown up quite a bit, and has now become known for taking edgier, more adult roles. That's a nice way of saying that she got hot, real hot, and she's been taking advantage of her hotness by starring in sex-soaked exploitation fare like Sucker Punch and Sleeping Beauty. Like chocolate and peanut butter, Emily Browning and sexual overtones just seem to go together well, so the actress looks to be keeping the ball rolling with her next film, Plush, which sees her starring as a sexy young rock star who's being seduced over to the dark side by a swarthy lothario. Already we've seen a red band teaser for the film that was little more than a bunch of sexy imagery set to a song, but now a full trailer for the film has been released, and it's one that gives us a better look at the story that Plush is going to tell alongside all its titillation. What we've got here is some good, old-fashioned stalker horror that seems like it would look appropriate sitting on a shelf next to early 90s fare like Poison Ivy and The Crush. Enjoy.
Red Band Teaser for 'Plush' Is More of a Confusing Music Video
Movie News By Samantha Wilson on September 2, 2013 | Comments (1)It seems fitting that the teaser trailer for the story of a deeply troubled rock star is fashioned in the style of a music video more than anything else. But though young Hayley's living her own personal episode of Behind the Music in Catherine Hardwicke's Plush, her story at least deserves a trailer with some dialogue. Hayley (Emily Browning) is a rising rock star who swiftly dives off the deep end when her brother and bandmate overdoses. But while she's in the midst of her downward spiral of drugs, booze, bad bleach jobs, and sex (Did you get that she's sexual? They really want you to understand that she's sexual), she finds inspiration and friendship (the sex kind) in the guitarist hired to replace her brother (Xavier Samuel). Check out the trailer for yourself here:

I agree, it looks gold, 70ish gold. Thanks for posting your pics,I'm looking for a color for my Living room and dining room, and Tobacco Road was on my list... Right now I'm considering; |
- Posted by tuesday_2008 (My Page) on Thu, Feb 9, 12 at 12:16
Take a good look at SW Believable Buff. It is "lighter and less gold". Very pretty, neutral. |
Hi there, I don't have a paint color to recommend to you but I wanted to point out that your carpet has a pinkish undertone, and, your hardwood floor has a yellow undertone. As long as you are choosing a paint with either a yellow undertone or a pink undertone one or the other room isn't going to look good. Might I suggest going either really light, like cream, or maybe head in a different direction, like green which would go with both undertones? A warm grey could work too but I have virtually no experience with choosing grey paint colors so I cant advise a specific color. |
- Posted by tuesday_2008 (My Page) on Thu, Feb 9, 12 at 14:09
OOH! Angrea is right - green would be nice! |
We are really enjoying our SW "Cherish Cream". It changes subtly depending on the light. Idon't have photos, but I'd suggest you take home a small amount of it and give it a try. The SW "samples" don't always match the actual paint color, we have found. Good luck. |
Actually I think the tobacco road looks great with your furniture, and it looks good in the kitchen too. The only thing that isn't working is the color of the carpet with all the other furnishings. How about putting down some larger rugs. I see you have a rug there with some red in it, how about a larger carpet with more red? Red would look great with that scheme you have going! |
The color itself looks beautiful on the walls. I think it is the carpet that is making everything look off. Like andreadeg mentioned, it seems to have pinkish undertones (the carpet) and when you mix different undertones in one room, everything starts to look "dirty" for lack of a better word. If you want to steer away from golds, maybe sample some beigey colors that do not clash with the pink undertones in the carpet. I used a SW color in my last house called Familiar Beige...it might work with that carpet. |
I just had the same problem - sample of TR mixed at Sherwin Williams and it's very gold looking. I recently had SW match Behr Raffia Ribbon (which is a less gold / more tan) and it looks more like the pictures I have seen online of TR. One blogger even says the TR she had Home Depot mix up is an exact match for the Raffia Ribbon paint chip. May I ask what color you ended up repainting your home? |

One nice aspect of the Wii's Virtual Console service is that it gives you the opportunity to play games you may have missed the first time around. When Irem first brought Legend of Hero Tonma, the company's cute knockoff of Capcom's Ghosts 'N Goblins, to the TurboGrafx-16, it skated under the collective radar because Nintendo and Sega had a veritable lock on people's buying habits. "Hakuna matata," or no worries, as the Swahili would say. The game is available once again, this time for the Wii's Virtual Console service, which means you can discover for yourself how exciting this little-known action romp is.
Upon first impression, you might have trouble accepting that the cute, pudgy characters are constantly shooting at or trying to stab one another. You're also bound to laugh at the stiffly translated cinematic scenes that refer to the main character as "Tommy," instead of Tonma. Indeed, the game exudes its own unique brand of charm. However, it's also a solidly designed run-and-gun that frequently resembles Capcom's Ghosts 'N Goblins, complete with its own haunting but rather upbeat soundtrack.
You control a caped hero named Tommy who can run, jump, bounce off of enemies' heads, and throw fireballs. Like the hero in Ghosts 'N Goblins, Tommy can fire only in the direction he's facing (not up or down). You'd think that'd be a problem, but there are loads of different fireball upgrades you can grab that will expand the coverage of Tommy's magical outbursts, as well as tack on bonus firepower in the form of homing shots. Each of the game's six levels offers plenty of platform-jumping and loads of enemies to shoot. There's even some exploring, as you'll occasionally have to locate a key or switch to open a locked door. And, in typical old-school fashion, you'll battle a boss at the end of each level.
The first few times you play, you're going to die, often. Enemies never stop appearing, the bosses can blanket the screen with magic, and Tommy dies after only a single hit. As you continue to play, though, you'll get used to mashing the attack button and jumping like a cricket, and you'll realize that the bosses don't take much firepower to put down once you figure out how to avoid their easily memorized attack patterns. You can also continue as often as you like from the current level, which, combined with the Wii's automatic save state feature, means you don't have to constantly replay levels you've already beaten.
That friendliness is really the only major flaw with Legend of Hero Tonma. The game has its tough spots, but you ultimately won't need more than a few hours to master it. However, those few hours are an intense ride, and at 600 Wii points, the cost certainly isn't unreasonable.

I need to now what is considered to be the best He Detergent for very sensitive skin and washing the clothes please post your experiences .Thanks,Nina |
Follow-Up Postings:
Everyone's sensitivites vary. I've found Tide Free/Sensitive to be great, as have many family and friends who have sensitivities, psoriasis, exema and allergies. Others here have used All Free & Clear, Charlie's soap (but that's not HE, though it's HE compatible) Cheer Free and just about anything that is a perfume/dye free. Sears has one also and Sears detergents are pretty popular. Dreft now has HE versions out and many like Dreft too. You probably need to try several and see which clean as you need without problems. |
- Posted by aprivitera (My Page) on Fri, Mar 27, 09 at 21:08
I have the same sorts of skin allergies/conditions and Persil megapearls (for whites or colours) used in 1/2 recommended quantities is the best I've tried. It also is better than Tide Free or others for cleaning clothes. Persil megapearls is available online at amazon.com and at some retailers. Check out the reviews! I'm impressed. It's expensive for a box but I only use 1 to 2 tablespoons max and it does a fantastic job. |
- Posted by happymomof2kids (My Page) on Sat, Mar 28, 09 at 1:21
Try to stick with anything that is perfume and dye free. I personally use Charlies soap and a lot of our skin issues cleared right up. I had been using Cheer Free and Gentle HE before the Charlies but we still had some issues with it, but we are a family of many allergies so it wasn't surprising. But chose what is right for you. There are many things on the market you can try. |
- Posted by housefairy (My Page) on Sat, Mar 28, 09 at 2:03
When the kids were young I used Dreft. Apparently by some current posts it now also comes in HE. But the best thing I found was to make the machine do an extra rinse. If their clothes were really dirty and I had to use a lot of detergent/pre-treater to get out the stains, I would just run them thru another complete cycle. Diapers were always a double cycle. So if you are having issues, try doing at least an additional rinse. You may have to do double cycles to remove all traces of the soap residue. |

http://www.cleaning101.com/laundry/HE.pdf Specifically pages 6 and 7 where it talks about the use of the HE (high efficiency) seal. Check to make sure the detergent has the actual seal. |

- Posted by emilyanddavid z7LongIslandNY (My Page) on Sat, Apr 16, 05 at 22:06
I know Marine bells has been hard to find-except in bulk. I bought 'Blue bells' seeds from Burpee. Plants- I haven't been able to find. Hope this helps, Jenn |

I think I saw it at Guru Gardens/Patrick Studies but I can't check because their seed cat is now offline. I assume at some point it will go back up. Specialty perrenials has something called "Jingle Bells Marine" for browallia. Not sure if that is what you want or not. Springcherry |

This hydrating lipstick goes on super smooth and imparts a glossy finish for a plush shine. Although it's touted as providing long-lasting lip color, it doesn't (the formula is too buttery for that); however, it does offer surprisingly rich pigmentation for a product that's labeled a "tint."
To differentiate Lush Lip Tint from the rest of the pack, Bite Beauty added a colorless balm center, which is supposed to pack a powerful punch of the grape-derived antioxidant resveratrol. That's merely a marketing ploy to capitalize on a buzz ingredient; however, regardless of the flavor, it does contain several beneficial plant oils and antioxidants (including resveratrol).
The limited shade range includes hues of pink, plum, red, coral, and berry, but if you're prone to lip color feathering into lines, this probably isn't the best option for you.
This product does contain synthetic coloring agents.
As a nice change of pace (and as mentioned above), the majority of Bite Beauty's formulas do indeed contain natural ingredients that are beneficial (or at least not harmful) for the skin and lips. The exception is the Cinnamon Plumping Lip Oil, which contains an irritating amount of peppermint oil. The preponderance of natural ingredients doesn't make these products inherently better, but if a product being "all" natural is important to you, then you should know that some of the Bite Beauty products contain synthetic coloring agents.
Bite Beauty takes things even further, saying that their products are "healthy enough to eat" (hence the name Bite Beauty). We certainly don't recommend eating your cosmetics; just because an ingredient comes from a natural source and is then formulated into a cosmetic doesn't mean it's edible!
As a matter of fact, Bite Beauty's naturally flavored products make it tempting to lick your lips, which in the long run can lead to chapping and a cycle of constantly applying more flavored lip balm, licking it off, then feeling the urgent need to apply more—and none of these lip products should be eaten. For vegans, you should be aware that some of these products contain lanolin, which is an animal-derived ingredient. There's nothing wrong with lanolin, but a cosmetics company selling their products as edible should be more forthcoming with this issue for those who wish to avoid animal-derived ingredients.
Another big marketing ploy is Bite Beauty's claims about their products containing the antioxidant resveratrol, in amounts equivalent to five, ten, or fifteen glasses of red wine, depending on the particular product. This is a meaningless claim, and here's why: First, we hope they don't mean a dual benefit; that is, being able to eat your lipstick and get resveratrol onto your lips and into your body. Second, while resveratrol is a great antioxidant, how much you need to gain a health benefit is unclear from the research. Third, the amount of resveratrol in an average glass of red wine ranges from 0.2 to 2.0 mg, which isn't much. Plus, if you want resveratrol, you can buy resveratrol supplements that contain 100–500 mg per capsule!
In short, resveratrol is a good antioxidant, when applied topically or when consumed; just don't get caught up in thinking it will work wonders for your lips. Clearly, Bite Beauty is capitalizing on a buzz ingredient here—and skin care, especially for the lips, is never as simple as one ingredient, however good it may be.
Those issues aside, in terms of performance, Bite Beauty does have some standout products, including their richly pigmented Cashmere Lip Cream. The price point is on the high end for lip care (you can find less expensive options on our Best Lip Products list); you certainly don't have to pay this much to get a good lipstick or gloss. However, if the price isn't an issue for you, and you find the allure of natural ingredients hard to resist, then this line is worth checking out.
Bite Beauty is sold exclusively at Sephora; the brand also has a flagship store in New York.

Bistros, sidewalk cafés, and chic, cutting-edge restaurants make up the dining scene in Québec City. "Grab and go" is more the exception than the rule—be prepared to eat at a leisurely pace; dinner can take a few hours. With cuisine ranging from traditional French dishes like foie gras and escargot to distinctly French-Canadian specialties such as tourtière (meat pie), with international
influences sprinkled in, Québec's thriving culinary community attracts tourists from around the globe. Sample local fare—sip ice cider, indulge in poutine, and dive into sweet maple sugar pie. Crepes—those delectable, paper-thin pancakes made of flour, eggs, and milk or cream—can be found on menus everywhere. Whether they're sweet or savory, Québec City crepes have been part of French gastronomy for centuries.
With so many options, choosing where to go can be difficult. Many establishments post their menu du jour outside, so you can stroll along and let your cravings guide the way. However, bear in mind that reservations are a must at most restaurants during holidays, Winter Carnival, and in the summer months, when the coveted outdoor terraces open. When ordering, remember that in this French-speaking province, an entrée is an appetizer and the plat principal is the main course. Plan to tip at least 15% of the bill.
The top 25 places we think should be on every traveler's radar this year.

Explorer of the Seas Cruise Review by sandykj: Fun But With Issues

Fun But With Issues
We were quite excited about our 11 day New England/Canada cruise in September. We had been on the Explorer of the Seas back in 2002 when she was fairly new and quite grand. It is still a beautiful ship, but does have a number of issues. Good thing she is headed to dry dock next year! The staff does work very hard to keep it clean and maintained.
The bad: Mold/mildew in our bathroom. We became ill after day 3. Finally moved to a new room after complaining for days! Not even to a balcony room nor an apology! We did feel better a couple of days later! The main dining room service from our head waiter was slow, uneventful with mediocre food at best. He appeared bored and truly unhappy! We were always the last to be served in our area. Very disappointing! Our assistant waiter was professional and tried hard.....he should have been the head waiter. The food in the Windjammer is typical buffet food. Eat the salads or fruit and leave the overcooked entrees behind. Super expensive More
excursions that really don't offer much. Try not to do them if possible!
The good: The evening shows were fun for the most part, the cruise director John, was super! The captain and crew did a marvelous job bringing us through some very windy conditions! The pool area was comfortable and clean! We played mini golf, saw movies, danced, enjoyed our table mates at dinner and loved being at sea together. Desserts at dinner were very good and the best part of the meal! The ports we visited were lovely and we would love to go back to many of them! Embarkation & disembarkation were very smooth!! Impressive!
We still love cruising, but we will think twice about sailing with Royal Caribbean again. Less

an IE Monstrosity for your pleasure
Back in October, when I was learning how to write valid CSS and XHTML, I did some work for an organization here at Texas A&M called Resurrection Week. They wanted me to redesign the site and make it look nice. Now I am not a graphic designer. I am not a color expert, nor can I write any worthwhile copy. I gave it a shot though, and this is what happened:
It looks fine in any standards compliant browser, but it's an ugly horrible mess in IE. It is perfectly valid HTML 1.0 Trans and CSS, you can check 'em yourself. As far as what screws up IE:
- two of the divs are declared position: fixed
- another div is declared position: absolute and covers the fixed div
- margin errors relating to box model
- transparent pngs
- appears to have a 3-pixel jog issue on the masthead (again, related to box model)
The reason I post this monstrosity is as a challenge for you Internet Explorer CSS gurus out there. I'm wondering if it's at all possible to make it render correctly in IE, in any version. There is no obligation to attempt this, nor am I asking for help. This is merely for your own enjoyment. Ideally you would reuse all the same graphics, but new ones are permitted if necessary. If you PM me, I can get you a copy of the pngs that these graphics came from. They are huge, so I don't just want to post 'em and waste tons of bandwidth.
Anyone up for the challenge?
Simple walkthrough:
Over-all, it's 3 vertical columns, ids left-border, container, and right-border. There is also an extra div (id= right-border-shadow) that's declared position: absolute to take care of the masthead's shadow. It lays on top of the right border.
Within container is a masthead and below it a content div. The masthead has two images, one floated left and the other floated right, in addition to the background image. The content div has within it a 3-column layout, ids leftnav, contentpane, and rightbar, all text only.
At the bottom is another div, id= bottom-bar, that uses a background png with a transparent shadow up top. A special IE hack is included to redeclare the background to be none, and to set up a border that uses the alpha-imageloader filter.

by James Slater - In great news that all fight fans will surely be extremely happy about, the hugely anticipated rubber match between light-welterweights Kendal Holt, 24-2(13) and Ricardo Torres, 32-2(28) is on for December 13th, probably at The Boardwalk Hall, New Jersey. ESPN. com broke the news, and revealed that Top Rank president Todd duBoef informed them just yesterday evening that the third and deciding fight was on. The bout will air as a special edition of Showtime's "ShoBox The Next Generation.." "I think it's so compelling, this rivalry," deBoef told ESPN. "It's why Showtime and Top Rank wanted to make this happen. It's these type of fights that make the sport so special. These guys have given the fans amazing action. They're both legit punchers who have fought twelve memorable rounds." Indeed they have. And the reason the two have fought twelve rounds is because fight #1, back in September of 2007, lasted into the 11th-round, while the rematch, taking place this past July, was all over inside one of the most astonishingly electrifying rounds ever seen. Both bouts had their moments of controversy, as fight fans are aware. Now, on December 13th, the pair will get it on again in a bid to settle their differences and sort out once and for all who the better fighter is. The first fight had spectator interference, debatable calls by the referee and a stoppage that saw Holt, who was leading on all three judges' cards, screaming for a rematch. He got it, and fight two saw yet more controversy. Inside a breathtaking 61-seconds, there were three knockdowns, a head-butt, a cut and a devastating KO, as "Rated R" got his much sought revenge. What will fight three bring us? It won't be dull, that's for sure. With these two 140-pounders going at it with everything to prove the bombs really are going to fly. We may get another long affair like their first meeting, or we may even get another sensational and quick slugfest similar to the one we got in the return match. Both men are fast, can really bang and are desperate to win the decider. What's not to like? Almost forgotten is the fact that the WBO light-welterweight strap will be on the line. They don't need an alphabet title to sell this one! For the winner, aside from immense pride at having emerged the winner in one of the best lower weight rivalries of recent years, are a whole lot of potentially huge paydays. December 13th is sure to be some great night of boxing in the 140-pound division.

Graveyard of Peaches: How Tennessee Will Win Its War Against Georgia
- |
- 6:30 am |
- Permalink
An insurgency stands the best chance of success of convincing Georgia of its error. Invading Tennessee is easy enough, militarily. Occupying and governing Tennessee is vastly more difficult.
As a soldier, I fought in both Iraq and Afghanistan; as a scholar, I performed most of the fieldwork for my doctoral dissertation in southern Lebanon. Nowhere in the world, though, have I ever encountered a more brutal, tribal and violent race of people than the Scots-Irish of East Tennessee. Any Georgian occupation force would inevitably get sucked into our petty politics and family vendettas. We might share a language, but Georgia would struggle to relate to its new foreign subjects, let alone entrench its authority over us.
In his book War at Every Door: Partisan Politics and Guerrilla Violence in East Tennessee, 1861-1869, historian Noel Fisher describes the way in which both Confederate and Union occupying armies struggled to comprehend the byzantine politics and grudges of East Tennessee and assert anything like political authority over such a lawless race of mountain people. I can almost pity the young Georgian men and women who would be asked to occupy as violent and confusing a place as southeast Tennessee. Alone at night, fearing yet another guerrilla attack and unsure of who they could trust among such an alien race, they would curse the greed of the Atlanta exurbs and the resource war that had been forced upon them. A prolonged occupation and insurgency stands a greater chance of transforming the internal politics of Georgia than transforming the immutable cultural truths of Tennessee.
The wars of the 9/11 era have demonstrated the perils of fighting heavily armed religious fundamentalists on their own soil. We Tennessee Presbyterians are a little like the Taliban — only certainly better armed and probably less tolerant of the Roman Catholic Church. Still, if Georgia wants to invade and occupy East Tennessee, it is welcome to try. Getting in should be easy. Getting out, however, is another matter entirely.
Andrew Exum is an International Affairs Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. He led U.S. Army Rangers in Iraq and Afghanistan and had his father mail boxes of Moon Pies to both.
