Pete Yost and Lara Jakes Jordan, Associated Press, June 11, 2008 A congressman said Wednesday the FBI has found that four of his government computers have been hacked by sources working out of China. Rep. Frank Wolf, a Virginia Republican, said that similar incidents - also originating from China - have taken place on computers of other members of the House and at least one House committee. A spokesman for Wolf said the four computers in his office were being used by staff members working on human rights issues and that the hacking began in August 2006. Wolf is a longtime critic of the Chinese government's human rights record. --- Posted by Tian Sun

the recent investments in next generation technology is driving down cost, so they can operate with less people. DWA should cut off the free food also to get in the black. Free food tends to attract the wrong type of employees...
what this should tell everyone is the massive pumping that is going on. The company just had mulitiple losses on earnings, flopped the Guardians, massive layoffs. Then a buy upgrades???!!!! at 18??? Are you kidding me? They milked the Croods but at the same time they were smart enough to sell at the highs. DWA is going much lower than 16, after said and done. There is absolutely nothing to hold this company up for the next 12 months. Thank goodness the Croods look to be a pretty good movie. Other than that, It's Dead money and #$%$ off investors selling month after month.
How much does the average DWA employee cost? Maybe $25 to $50 an hour? If an employee eats lunch inside the company they will probably only take a half hour, and go back up to work. If they have to drive somewhere the outing will take an hour. So... feeding employees saves between $12.50 and $25 minus food costs per employee. Do you really think they are spending more than $12.50 per for cafeteria food?
If this was true, wouldn't you think more companies would be offering free food? Free food tends to make many people over eat and those employees go back to their cubicles feeling lethargic and nap on the job and put out bombs like ROTG and the stock tanks. As a shareholder, I like to see DWA turn its dining common into a profit center.

And you needn't be knee jerk, either
I knew when I wrote it the 1790 Act was replaced but wanted out there the FIRST Act written explaining citizenship and not have this huge post going over every single change and amendment to citizenship/naturalization laws.
I'm explaining the difference between 'jus soli' and 'jus sanguinis'. Two American decide to take a trip around the world and have a child while abroad will not make that child anything but a natural born American citizen.
You're the one saying the kid must be born on American soil and I'm saying no, it's the parents' citizenship (jus sanguinis) that determines if the child is a citizen or natural born citizen - two parents same citizenship child is natural born American regardless of where child born (unless parents seeking citizenship in foreign country), parents of different citizenships create an American citizen.
If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.

The Association of Performing Arts Presenters has exercised a high degree of adaptability in a 53-year history of anticipating and responding to changes in the performing arts. The capacity to imagine creative strategies, coupled with the organization's continuing stability, has positioned Arts Presenters to serve the ongoing needs of members far into a future where the performing arts continue to thrive and nourish the hearts and minds of individuals and communities.
Our story begins in the 1950s, when college and university concert managers directed their interests toward the educational role of the arts and the unique issues related to professional performing arts on campus. In 1957, a group of these presenters left ISPAA (then known as the National Association of Concert Managers) and formed the Association of College and University Concert Managers (ACUCM), which was officially incorporated and granted nonprofit, tax-exempt status by the IRS in 1969.
During the 1960s and 1970s, the presenting field was expanding beyond the university, and many other presenters shared common purposes with university organizations. In 1973, ACUCM changed its name to the Association of College, University and Community Arts Administrators in recognition of this expanding field. Over the next 15 years, the membership grew and diversified as the presenting field expanded. By the mid 1980s, colleges and universities no longer dominated the membership, and the Association's spectrum expanded. In 1988, the Association changed its name to the Association of Performing Arts Presenters. The membership now includes presenting organizations; regional, state and local arts agencies; service organizations; producing companies; artist managements; booking agencies, and individual artists, among other performing arts professionals.
At the beginning, membership in the Association helped define the field of presenting. For the first time, presenters with kindred jobs had a forum through which they could exchange information and ideas. In the late 1970s, the focus of Association activities shifted slightly to provide a greater emphasis on the business of presenting, with workshops and publications on marketing and other business issues. The Association also became involved in advocacy efforts during this period.
In the mid 1980s, in conjunction with the Values and Lifestyles Study, the organization also began to encourage members to take a more active role in community life, beyond simply bringing artists to the stage. Toward the end of that decade, another change occurred: Although still committed to helping members develop sound business practices, the Association devoted greater attention to artistic and philosophical concerns shared by presenters, artists and managements.
Membership in the Association was 29 in 1957; by 1966 it had increased to 275, where it remained for several years. As of October 2008, Arts Presenters had 1910 organization and individual members, including: 792 presenting organizations, 532 artists/agents/managers, 105 presenting support organizations, 19 vendors, 27 consultant members, 232 individual associates of members organizations, 181 students and 22 honorary life members.
In the early years, the University of Wisconsin in Madison housed the staff. Fan Taylor, who was the presenter at the Wisconsin Union Theater, served as executive secretary without compensation for much of her 24-year tenure. Bill Dawson succeeded Taylor in 1971, first part-time and then full-time until 1986, when Susie Farr became the third executive director until her departure in 1999. Jon Durnford briefly became interim executive director, and Sandra Gibson was President and CEO from 2000 until 2011. In 2011, the board of directors appointed Mario Garcia Durham as President and CEO.
Arts Presenters is financially solvent and has maintained a small cash reserve. Just before Gibson came onboard, the organization underwent its first formal long-range planning process. As a result of this work, the Arts Presenters moved its headquarters to Washington, D.C. and undertook a number of new initiatives, including the creation of a Professional Development position on staff, development of a new quarterly magazine and assumption of a more visible role in advocating for presenters' issues at the national level. Arts Presenters became a member of the Performing Arts Alliance (formerly American Arts Alliance) in 1988. Since then, its role as an advocate for presenters' issues has increased substantially.
During the 1988 planning process, the mission expanded to include providing a public face to the celebration of the richness represented by presenters, presenting organizations, artists' managers and artists, and required an added emphasis on increasing awareness of the value of the field as a field, while continuing to provide information and training for presenters and other performing arts professionals.
In 1989-90, Arts Presenters administered the National Task Force on Presenting and Touring the Performing Arts, and oversaw publication of An American Dialogue, the report from that 18-month study. In 1989, by the Lila Wallace-Readers' Digest Fund selected Arts Presenters to administer a major re-granting program focused on audience development. A planning process undertaken in 1991 reinforced the importance of the fundamental priorities for Arts Presenters, such as advocacy, research, and initiatives in cultural diversity, and suggested the need for some others, particularly in organizational governance and visibility for presenting.
Through all of these activities, Arts Presenters made a commitment to become more inclusive and become a more active participant in the global arts community. Since 1993, Arts Presenters has increased its cash reserves and established cash reserves and investment policies to achieve greater financial stability. In 1998, the Wallace and Readers Digest Foundation turned over administrative duties for the Arts Partners program to Arts Presenters.
Early in 2001, Arts Presenters launched a year-long national field assessment of the key issues and opportunities facing the performing arts presenting field. This exploration of the challenges that lie ahead for performing arts and presenting in the areas of leadership, diversity, globalization, technology, sustainability and audience development received generous support from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation. Findings from a national study of the presenting field conducted by the Urban Institute were used to create a briefing paper for a series of 12 national and regional forums with professionals, funders and other supporters. This information was critical to Arts Presenters' strategic planning and commitment to supporting the work of performing arts presenters and their affiliated colleagues. Arts Presenters collected the findings in the position paper Towards Cultural Interdependence.
Concurrent with the national study on the presenting field, the Board of Directors initiated a strategic planning process which consisted of several components:
SPG & Associates were retained in August 2002 to bring together the various pieces of the strategic planning process to create an integrated blueprint for action.
In 2002, the Board of Directors approved a five-year Integrated Strategic Plan. To respond to the dramatic shifts in the field of performing arts presenting today and to act as leaders connecting artists and audiences, the board identified the following four goals for Arts Presenters at a June 2002 retreat.
To achieve these goals, the Board identified three important areas:
In January 2006 and in preparation for the 50th anniversary and next phase of the association's development, Arts Presenters began to set the stage the next 50 years. The Roan Group, Inc. conducted a 15-month strategic review, a comprehensive assessment and discovery process rigorously focused on the details of the organization.
The review's findings, strategies, and recommendations presented options for action and a work program for the next decade and beyond. Some recommendations are in the process of being executed, and others will be achieved over time. The Strategic Review was intended to better prepare Arts Presenters to increase its ability to build capacity in individuals, sustainable presenting organizations, a more effective field and a robust and vibrant presenting and touring community.
A Strategic Review Working Group informed and guided the process, which was designed to be independent of the Board of Directors and the association's management. The Working Group and the Board met and collaborated in two work sessions, but it was the Working Group – chaired by former board member and manager of Kronos Quartet, Janet Cowperthwaite, and President of the National Black Arts Festival, Stephanie Hughley, as well as board members – that endorsed an Info-mediary Committee to investigate Arts Presenters current and future organizational, informational, strategy, and infrastructural needs.
The 10-month discovery process included: 54 hours of in-depth interviews, three Working Group meetings and an Info-mediary Committee meeting (committees included Board and at-large members), and 12 hours of member meetings (Conversations with the Field) in eight cities , including forums at three regional presenting conferences.
The Conversations solicited feedback on draft findings from the review process and identified current challenges and opportunities facing the presenting and touring field. More than 200 people working in the presenting and performing arts fields – representing large, small and mid-sized organizations and companies from every region of the country – gathered to express concerns and hopes about our field. The questions that provided the most resonant answers were:
Members and the wider field reflected upon and discussed marketplace, political, social and economic shifts, as well as strategies for Arts Presenters to meet operating needs and advance sustainability in the field. Members received greater detail on the review findings and proposed recommendations for the association to consider at the Annual Membership Meeting in January 2007.
The Roan Group presented the draft Strategic Review report to Arts Presenters' Board of Directors in April 2007. The Board earmarked recommendations for immediate action and formed groups to discuss short- and long-term plans. In October 2008, the Board of Directors and staff outlined the strategic issues and goals for three to five years, and the Board resumed the planning process in March 2009. Several months later, Arts Presenters adopted a three-year Strategic Framework for 2010-2012 and a three-year professional development plan.

Saints Row: Money shot has been outed by a classification report in Australia, with details and screenshots emerging online.
The classification listing is official enough and names the title along with its "strong violence and sexual references" to a degree worthy of a 15 rating.
Sex and violence is in the bank, then, that's not going anywhere. What sheds more light on Money Shot, but isn't so official, however, is a synopsis on MS Xbox World.
The Saints Row spin-off (whether it's DLC for the The Third or a whole new spin-off) is described with the following:
"You are Cypher, a deadly assassin in the world of Saints Row, and you hunt the most elusive targets with the most sophisticated weaponry that Ultor has to offer.
"How sophisticated? You have the ability to control your bullet to such a degree that you can weave through the hallway of an apartment complex, steer through the legs of a hooker, and even snake your way through a moving train! Avoid striking solid objects and unintended bystanders and make sure you hit your mark!"
The site also lists a fairly unexciting set of Achievements which total 200 - suggesting an XBLA game - and a set of screenshots, which bring a whole load more weight to that description.
Whatever it is, it looks suitably Saints Row as far as crazy is concerned. Have a look at the latest Saints Row The Third trailer and screenshots to compare.
A few of the screenshots can be found below, the rest are on MS Xbox World via the source link.

Our new stray "kitty" went to the vet today and is now officially named Stanley! He is a neutured male, @3 years old, probable mainecoon mix.
We are starting very slow introductions with my indoor 5yr old male cat, and our 2 labs. Stanley is the one doing all of the hissing and spitting. My labs are mostly bored with him (although they do think the hissing, spitting, and swatting are interesting), but my cat is truly fascinated and would love to get closer. He is still in my daughters room, but I have put a chair in the doorway so everyone can sniff and see each other from a distance. Any suggestions on how to help him adjust to all of his new animal family? |
Follow-Up Postings:
The last time I brought in a new stray she lived in a bathroom for a while and they sniffed each other under the door. This was probably for a week. Then the newcomer was brought out for supervised periods of time - however long I could spend watching over everyone. I can't remember how long we went on like that - not too long - until everyone seemed to behave nicely. They really adjusted to each other pretty quickly. I had two neutered males and the new cat was a fully functional female. In short order she start going into heat and one of the boys attempted to go into action. I quickly made an appointment to get her spayed. She and that cat always got along better than the other one. They all got along fine but she'd curl up and sleep with him but not the other one. |

Who's the biggest one-day-fly of the last 25 years in women tennis?
Apr 1st, 2004, 11:01 PM
Apr 1st, 2004, 11:43 PM
Although she can still prove me wrong, I think Clarissa Fernandez might be one of them...
Apr 1st, 2004, 11:46 PM
Definetely Fernandez.
Apr 2nd, 2004, 12:01 AM
Miss Alexandra Stevenson
Apr 2nd, 2004, 12:02 AM
Miss Alexandra Stevenson
I disagree because alex has actually followed her wimby semi up with finals of Tier II's SF's etc..

Apr 2nd, 2004, 12:03 AM
Does "one-day-fly" mean one tournament wonder?
Apr 2nd, 2004, 12:49 AM
Samantha Smith. She was ranked in the 190-210 range her entire career, then reaches the 4th round of Wimbledon out of nowhere, beating then top 10 Conchita Martinez along the way, and then falls back to oblivion.
Katarina Studenikova. Ranked in the 50-70 range her entire career, out of nowhere beats then #2 Monica Seles at Wimby, reaches the 4th round and then falls back to oblivion.
Meredith McGrath. See Katarina, only she got to the semifinals that year, hyperextended her knee before her match against Sanchez Vicario and completely vanished after that. She played something like 4 matches in the next 2 years before quitting.
Clarisa Fernandez is a good example as well with her semifinal run at the French Open.
Lindsay Lee Waters getting to the quarterfinals of Indian Wells in 1996 and then only started winning tour level matches recently.
Apr 2nd, 2004, 12:53 AM
How about Indian Wells 2001 where Emanualle Gagliardi (spelling?) got to the SF and has not been making much noise since. (lost 6-4 in the third by the way).
Apr 2nd, 2004, 01:22 AM
Was Meredith really talented? Chicago wasn't bad for her, she beat PHB and then Majoli. Hmmm....
Apr 2nd, 2004, 02:57 AM
Iva Majoli !
- L i n a -
Apr 2nd, 2004, 03:07 AM
Wrong on McGrath...
She won 2 fairly strong titles in 94... Oklahoma City and Eastbourne.
Then her grass run in 96.
I remember she had quite a few big upsets before that also.
I guess she was a streaky player, and had a lot of injuries.
Apr 2nd, 2004, 03:21 AM
Vik Kutuzova
Apr 2nd, 2004, 03:28 AM
although I may be wrong possibly Daja Bedanova
Apr 2nd, 2004, 03:50 AM
Vik Kutuzova
It's a bit early to call her what so ever, she's not even 16 years old
Apr 2nd, 2004, 05:22 AM
Iva Majoli!
Apr 2nd, 2004, 05:30 AM
Ad.Serra-Zanetti - Aus Open 02
Apr 2nd, 2004, 07:05 AM
McGrath was a very talented player. She did have a few titles before that Wimbledon run. i wouldn't call her a one tournament wonder!
Apr 2nd, 2004, 11:44 AM
I think there have been serveral in tennis besides who have been mentioned: Chris O'Neill (Aus Open champ), Carina Karlsson (Wimbledon quarters), Silvia LaFratta (French open r16), Sabine Auer (Lipton r16), Camille Benjamin (French Open semi) and Belinda Cordwell (Aus Open semi).
All of them had one great tournament in their careers and practically not much else in between.
Apr 2nd, 2004, 12:18 PM
Iva Majoli!
In terms of the magnitude, that should be Iva!:worship:
Apr 2nd, 2004, 01:46 PM
Nah... I don't think Iva Majoli should even be up for consideration. Iva had a good solid three years establishing her presence on tour. Let's not forget when Iva won the French she was a top ten player and at the time she was kind of viewed in a similar light to how Myskina is right now. She even got her career ranking up to #4 in the world. Other notable facts:
Iva was a four time quarter finalist in the slams where shes also reached the 4h round three times- all in addition to winning the French Open. She was ranked in the top 5 in the WTA (#4) as well as the top 25 for doubles- not to mention shes won a total of 8 career titles (seven of those titles were won all within a three year span). She aint headed to the Hall of Fame anytime soon, but shes definitely not a flash in the pan.
She's also had career wins over Lindsay, Hingis, Jennifer, and Chanda to name a few.
Apr 2nd, 2004, 01:49 PM
Bea Bielik maybe? Never heard of her again.
Apr 2nd, 2004, 01:55 PM
Ad. Serra-Zanetti
Apr 2nd, 2004, 02:30 PM
Although she can still prove me wrong, I think Clarissa Fernandez might be one of them...
I totally agree with you. Clarisa Fernandez had some good results before Roland Garros, and Roland Garros looked like to be her big break through. After Roland Garros she didn´t do well at all.
Apr 2nd, 2004, 02:35 PM
1. mirjana lucic,
verry promising at young age, (SF Wimbledon)
but that's were it stayed at young age
2. Clarisa Fernandez

on August 26, 2014The shooting death of Michael Brown was more than worth every word and every pixel expended on its coverage. However, for sheer brass-balls police bullshit, what's going on down in New Iberia may be even worse than what happened in Ferguson.
Deputies say they found illegal narcotics on the 22-year-old black man, so he was arrested on possession and taken in for booking. But White's story, the one given five months ago by law enforcement, ends right after his arrival at the sheriff's office, when he's said to have refused to exit the back seat of the deputy's cruiser. The deputy ran for help, and White, in a feat of human elasticity, is alleged to have pulled out a handgun that was somehow undetected during frisking, and with his hands still in cuffs behind his back, fired off a round into his back. White died shortly after, leaving the deputies on the scene as the only witnesses to the incident. The sheriff's office maintains there are no surveillance cameras in that area of the parking lot.
There are so many layers of convenient coincidence atop the official story of Victor White's death that the original story was bound to collapse sooner or later. (No surveillance cameras? The cops frisked a handcuffed man and they were able to find a small amount of marijuana, but they missed a handgun?) Now, though, there is a coroner's report that comes to the unremarkable conclusion that the shooting simply could not have happened the way it was reported.
The autopsy by Christopher Tate, a forensic pathologist with the coroner's office, reveals a number of glaring holes in the deputies' account of White's death, starting with a change in the cause of death from accidental shooting to suicide. The report also shows that White was killed from a gunshot wound that entered the right side of his chest, tearing through his left lung and heart and exiting through his left armpit, leaving the upper arm with lacerations - a much different scenario than the handcuffed man who shot himself in the back as deputies claimed. The autopsy further reveals that White suffered from some sort of blow to the face, listed on the report as two upper facial abrasions near his left eye. In an article posted in the weeks after the shooting, Vice's Cooper reports on a conversation with White's father, Victor White Sr. From that conversation, which came way before the autopsy's release, here's what White says about his son and the deputies who arrested him: "I know they beat him before he arrived at the station, because those who were with him before he was arrested said he didn't have a mark on him."
(Vice is your go-to source on this case. It's been all over it almost from jump.)
While the coroner's report concludes that White committed suicide while in custody, at least it is not claiming that he had to be Mr. Fantastic to do it. White's family isn't buying a word of it, including the coroner's conclusion that this was a suicide. From here, the whole scenario as presented looks like it owes more to Arlen Specter's work with the Warren Commission than it does to anything else. In terms of complete implausibility, this one may be even worse than what happened in Ferguson but, on a number of tragically important levels, they're both the same event.

Charles Dickens was born in a little house in Landport, Portsea, England, on February 7, 1812. The second of eight children, he grew up in a family frequently beset by financial insecurity. At age eleven, Dickens was taken out of school and sent to work in London backing warehouse, where his job was to paste labels on bottles for six shillings a week. His father John Dickens, was a warmhearted but improvident man. When he was condemned the Marshela Prison for unpaid debts, he unwisely agreed that Charles should stay in lodgings and continue working while the rest of the family joined him in jail. This three-month separation caused Charles much pain; his experiences as a child alone in a huge city–cold, isolated with barely enough to eat–haunted him for the rest of his life.
When the family fortunes improved, Charles went back to school, after which he became an office boy, a freelance reporter and finally an author. With Pickwick Papers (1836-7) he achieved immediate fame; in a few years he was easily the post popular and respected writer of his time. It has been estimated that one out of every ten persons in Victorian England was a Dickens reader. Oliver Twist (1837), Nicholas Nickleby (1838-9) and The Old Curiosity Shop (1840-41) were huge successes. Martin Chuzzlewit (1843-4) was less so, but Dickens followed it with his unforgettable, A Christmas Carol (1843), Bleak House (1852-3), Hard Times (1854) and Little Dorrit (1855-7) reveal his deepening concern for the injustices of British Society. A Tale of Two Cities (1859), Great Expectations (1860-1) and Our Mutual Friend (1864-5) complete his major works.
Dickens's marriage to Catherine Hoggarth produced ten children but ended in separation in 1858. In that year he began a series of exhausting public readings; his health gradually declined. After putting in a full day's work at his home at Gads Hill, Kent on June 8, 1870, Dickens suffered a stroke, and he died the following day.

The Evil Within Behind the Scenes: The Horrific Art of Shinji Mikami
Adam Sessler visits Tango Gameworks for some behind the scenes interviews with Shinji Mikami and the other key figures developing The Evil Within.
In the intro to this behind the scenes web series, we get to see an excellent mix of The Evil Within's gameplay, cutscenes, death traps and developmental process all in action. In 'The Art of Survival', Shinji Mikami and producer Masato Kimura speak with Adam Sessler about what survival horror means to them. Mikami mentions that it is a split between making a game scary and making it enjoyable to play. Speaking about gameplay, Kimura says that most survival horror games offer you either two options: fight or flee. Most players only flee when they're out of ammo or if the monster they're facing seems too powerful. The Evil Within gives you multiple options on top of this, such as using your environment to your benefit (setting off traps, shooting explosives, kicking down ladders, etc.) and using stealth to your benefit to help whittle down the enemy forces before they realize you're there.
Speaking on the game's story, Mikami offers some excellent incite into his creative process without spoiling anything. He says that the game's events are a bit all over the place, but it was purposely done. You're not presented a traditional, linear story. Sebastian Castellanos' experiences are pieced together similar to how the human mind recalls memories. Everything is being recalled in Castellanos' head. Just like our own minds, Sebastian's memories are never recalled in a linear manner — the times and places get shifted around and its up to the person witnessing/recalling these memories to help make sense of things by putting them in chronological order. The Evil Within intends to offer a more immersive style of survival horror.
The Evil Within launches on Oct. 14 for PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
Looks like The Evil Within's creepiness might overshadow Resident Evil's.

Bundles Of Spinach
Nitrite free bacon | 1⁄2 Pound | |
Soft goat cheese/4 ounces farmer cheese and 2 ounces ncotta | 6 Ounce | |
Onions | 3 Medium, coarsely chopped | |
Garlic | 3 Clove (15 gm), finely minced | |
Salt | To Taste | |
Freshly ground pepper | To Taste | |
Spinach | 4 Pound (Loose With Stems) |
Take 4 pieces of bacon, about 2 inches long, cut into 12 strips and set aside.
Cut the remaining bacon into small pieces.
Cook the bacon with the onions and garlic over medium low heat until crisp.
When crisp, drain off all the grease, reserving for later use.
Clean spinach by removing tough stems and washing the spinach three times to remove sand.
Cook spinach in large pot without additional water until spinach is just wilted.
Remove one fourth of the spinach from the pot and place remaining spinach in a colander.
Remove all of the liquid from the quarter portion of spinach by placing in a towel and squeezing tightly.
There should be about 1/2 cup.
Place this spinach in bowl either with goat cheese or mixture of ricotta and farmer cheese.
Blend in food processor or mix thoroughly in bowl.
Add bacon mixture; adjust seasoning and stir in 2 tablespoons bacon fat.
Place spinach that is drying in colander onto a towel and lightly remove excess water.
Place 12 equal mounds of this spinach on either a wooden board or clean counter.
Flatten them each into small rectangles.
Season with salt and pepper.
Place 1 tablespoon of spinach cheese mixture on each bundle and roll up, sealing ends.
Do not worry if spinach does not entirely enclose mixture; it doesn't matter.
Place bundles seam side down in baking pan and lay one of the reserved strips of bacon across each widthwise.
Refrigerate, if desired.
To serve, return to room temperature and bake at 350 degrees 15 to 20 minutes to heat through and crisp bacon strips.
NOTE TO COOK: Carry to party on baking sheet, wrapped in foil and bake.
Goat cheese gives much more flavor to dish than farmer cheese.

To paraphrase:
-Ashraf is going on vacation
-I have posting abilities
-I'm getting a new laptop
-I'll do reviews when possible on my new laptop when it comes
The full thing:
I few days ago I used this site's "Write for dotTech" button to submit an article. Not only was it published, but I was given posting abilities by Ashraf as a kind of "deal" between him and I, where I will do reviews when he's on vacation. (Enjoy, BTW) I just (earlier today) ordered a new laptop from NewEgg with 64 bit, and i plan to dual-boot it with Windows 7 or a Linux flavor. I will conduct these reviews in Vista, XP, or 7, depending on what I feel like doing [: and will try to aim for at least a review a day. I know that I won't be able to (I'm going on vacation too in July, but I will still have acess, so I'll try to do them during the first part of the day if I can- plus, I'll be in the part of the world where GAOTD updates at midnight. ), but I'll try. I hope everyone likes my reviews, and I'll start one week after Ashraf fails to post anything.
Thank you! It's the Acer I was looking at earlier. It's one-gig graphix card should help me out a lot, but I don't think I can take the 16inch thing on vacation. I'm going to take the Inspiron laptop I have from 2006ish. I hope it's good. Ooh just thinking about it is making me get nerdgasms. (Ok, not really.)

One-fifth of US youth with HIV unaware during first-time sex
Published on Nov 10, 2012 8:49 AM
WASHINGTON (AFP) - Twenty percent of young people born with HIV in the United States do not know they are infected when they have sex for the first time, according to a new study released on Friday.
The study, which appeared in the Clinical Infectious Diseases journal, also found that most of the juveniles who were aware of their status said they did not tell their partners before becoming intimate.
In addition, a majority of these sexually active HIV-positive youth reported some sex without condom use.
"Our findings show that these young people act very much like their HIV-negative counterparts across the country," said Mr Rohan Hazra of the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.

Pint Sized Terror
My daughter is 2 1/2 and every fall and winter she has chronic ear infections. Well, she and my son have both had a cold for the past few days, and lo and behold, my little angel has been fussy, clingy and overall just flat out miserable all day. She didn't want to eat dinner, and instead crawled into my lap, started sobbing and said her ear hurts. :( I have a little thing to look in her ear, and there's a LOT of gunk in her ear canal. It's not green gunk, but reddish. She isn't running a fever yet, so I gave her some Tylenol for the pain. I just know she's going to be up tonight with a fever though. I feel so bad for her. :(

LaRue District Judge C. Derek Reed declined Wednesday to lower bond for five people charged in a drug bust in Magnolia April 26.
James Edward Lacy, 38, of Munfordville; Brad Lee Williamson, 34, of 4608 S. L&N Turnpike, Magnolia; and Ernest Wilson, 40, of Munfordville; were each charged with manufacture of methamphetamine and unlawful possession of meth precursors.
Marvin Ray Bryant, 43, and Geneva Lois Bryant, 47, were charged with possession of controlled substance and buy or possession of drug paraphernalia.
As Executive Director of the Kentucky County Judge/Executive Association, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to your LaRue County Judge/Executive, Tommy Turner, for the excellent work he has done on behalf of Kentucky counties.
The LaRue County Hawks varsity baseball team was very busy last week with five very tough games against good competition, winning one game and losing four.
The Campbellsville Eagles came to Hodgenville May 4 ready to play, defeating the Hawks 6-3. Campbellsville's Aaron Schwoebel and Brett Kearney held the Hawks to three runs, scattering nine hits over seven innings

Main Street does it, partly through purchase of plants and rock and partly through volunteers planting and weeding efforts. Sometimes we are assisted by supervised inmates.

National Security
Gen. Keith Alexander tells senators that Prism whistleblower had "great skills" in his job, but security-clearance process needs a reassessment. (File photo)
Senators took advantage of their first opportunity to publicly question Gen. Keith Alexander, head of the National Security Agency and head of the U.S. Cyber Command, in the wake of disclosures about domestic surveillance made by a relatively low-level contractor in the press.
While much of the questioning focused on whether the information sought by NSA was legally obtained, and if it was instrumental in deterring terrorist threats, senators also wondered how the source of the disclosures, Edward Snowden, a 29-year-old high-school dropout with a general-equivalency diploma wound up with a security clearance working in IT for the Central Intelligence Agency and then as an employee of Booz Allen Hamilton, with access to top secret material.
"I would point out, in the IT arena, some of these folks have tremendous skills to operate networks. That was [Snowden's] job for the most part, from 2009, 2010, was an IT assistant administrator within those networks. He had great skills in that area," Alexander said. At the same time, Alexander allowed that he had "great concerns" over the access that Snowden had, and the process that cleared him for that access. "We do have to go back and look at these processes, the oversight, where they went wrong, and how we fix those."
Separately, Alexander discussed the challenges of recruiting, training, and retaining quality personnel. He confirmed that civilian employees of cyber command will be furloughed for 11 days as a result of budget cuts under sequestration. "That has a significant impact on us," Alexander said. "It goes right back to, how do you hire good people and then furlough them?"
Alexander discussed efforts to establish standardized training for military personnel looking to specialize in cybersecurity, and efforts to recruit qualified professionals on the civilian side of NSA. Incentive pay for military personnel is not currently a part of the training program, but Alexander said it is "something we're looking at," comparing to the current system of offering incentive pay for personnel who learn foreign languages to expand the scope of their duties. Alexander also said that he looked forward to "greater scrutiny of what I am getting with contract support."
Rand Beers, acting deputy secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, testified that he was looking to hire another 600 individuals to augment the current 1,500-person cyber workforce. The skills required are in great demand, and DHS was looking for increased funding to recruit and retain qualified personnel. He mentioned "comparable pay to what NSA is able to offer its workforce," as a measure that would give his agency a leg up in attracting good candidates.
Ostensibly, the purpose of the hearing was to discuss the $14 billion in total cybersecurity allocations sought by President Obama in this fiscal 2014 budget, across NSA, DHS, the Department of Justice and the National Institute of Standards and Technology. However, the bulk of the questions were directed at Alexander, and focused on the disclosures of the NSA's Prism program that reportedly analyzes data gleaned from commercial web providers under the authority of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, and a program to receive mobile telephone metadata, under the Patriot Act.

Verified Purchase
I bought this pen in three colors. I do not believe the colors make a
difference--they were, each, faulty. And all in the same way. Following the
instructions, I inserted the cartridge and thought that the ink would begin to
flow. Not only did none of the ink flow, I had to run the nib under warm water,
drying it carefully with a paper towel, I tried to prod the cartridge into
beginning to flow, I put everything back together and, leaving the pen capped
with the nib side down, I left the pens alone for a few days. When I returned,
everything remained the same. No ink. No writing.
I find these pens to be quite aesthetically lovely, with the nib matching the ink and cap color. Someone clearly put a lot of thought into the design, but went blank on the engineering portion of the pen. There is just no performance. At all. I am aware that the pens are valued at $3.30 each. So, some may say, you get what you pay for. I have paid hundreds of dollars for some pens, yet my all time favorite is one that I paid $17. to acquire. One never knows when one will find a little treasure. Know this: You will not find a little treasure in this pen. You will find a little headache. Hardly pays to send them back. what a waste of money...as I bought cartridges, as well. 2 people found this helpful

Verified Purchase
The purple ink color is a good strong purple, and the 05 nib puts down a medium
wet line. I have tried the 03 and would say the 05 is much better in terms of
ink flow, even if it tends toward the bold side. The nib is almost slightly
italic - it can be a bit thinner horizontally than vertically. I would say it's
much smoother than the Pilot Petite1. I would also prefer it with less branding.
I received a generic Platinum Preppy with a 4.5oz bottle of Noodler's Baystate
Blue which was converted to eyedropper, and that pen is a clean transparent gray
all around, which is ideal. I'd like to be able to buy more of the no-name

It\'s a nice pen for the price, that\'s for sure. But I like the PILOT Petit1
A big down side for me is the non-removable bar code and label. So it\'s not so esthetically pleasing, but hey, it\'s ok for the $. The ink color is more violet than purple - close to the cap color. 1 person found this helpful

I bought these to give to kids at the school where I work. They love thse
simple starter fountain pens. They're colorful, easy, and the inkflow isnt too
wet for their handwriting. I should probably buy a gross of these to hand out
as prizes.
The medium nib works well for wide and college rule papers, so it's a good all-around size. And the purple? Their favorite color. |

Verified Purchase
takes a little coaxing to get going but works well when it does. It's certainly
a medium nib! I do find it charming that the nib is also purple metal, to match
the accent colors on the pen. I'm not crazy about the ink cartridges that come
with these, they seem to jam the pens up way more than if you just do the
dropper conversion on them and fill the barrels with ink.
The pen, without the cartridge, however, is perfectly serviceable and has done well by me! |

Verified Purchase
I bought this pen a while back along with the black model for my daughter, and
was surprised at the difference in flow - the black ink flowed much more easily.
I had to shake the purple one see rap times every few minutes to get the ink
flowing. But after some research at jetpens.com I learned how to convert it into
an eyed topper pen. I had found the purple a bit too bright, so I mixed the ink
from 2 purple cartridges with the ink from 2 black cartridges, and filled the
barrel. Now I'm completely in love with this pen!!! The color is stunning, the
ink flows with much greater ease, and the sight of the barrel filled with this
dark royal purple is just stunning! For a $3 pen, it's brought me a lot of
joy... And I haut want to write with it all the time!!

Verified Purchase
If you expect to be able to pick up this pen and begin writing with it without
any hassle, you will be very frustrated. I ordered black, green, and red in 03
and black, purple, and red in 05. Both of the black pens work very well and
start writing immediately. All of the colored ones suck to be perfectly honest.
Even storing them nib down does very little. They will write a few sentences
then completely stop. You may or may not be able to get them going again before
putting them away in frustration. In addition, both the red and green colors are
very washed out. The purple is nice and dark, and the black is a bit grey, but
passable. I realize they were cheap. That is exactly how they perform.

I absolutely love this pen. I'm a fountain pen newbie, and this was among the
seven I ordered to get me started. I received the pens yesterday, and I've been
writing and playing around with them since then. I love the color of the ink in
this pen, and it has a smooth flow. My penmanship has gotten awful over the last
few years, but everything I write with this pen is gorgeous. I'm really pleased
with the pen, especially since it was so inexpensive.

Summary: A MONSTER PREYED UPON THE CHILDREN OF NINETEENTH-CENTURY BOSTON. HIS CRIMES WERE APPALLING -- AND YET HE WAS LITTLE MORE THAN A CHILD HIMSELF. When fourteen-year-old Jesse Pomeroy was arrested in 1874, a nightmarish reign of terror over an unsuspecting city came to an end. ''The Boston Boy Fiend'' was imprisoned at last. But the complex questions sparked by his ghastly crime spree -- the hows and whys of vicious juvenile crime -- were as relevant in the so-called Age of Innocence as ...show morethey are today. Jesse Pomeroy was outwardly repellent in appearance, with a gruesome ''dead'' eye; inside, he was deformed beyond imagining. A sexual sadist of disturbing precocity, he satisfied his atrocious appetites by abducting and torturing his child victims. But soon, the teenager's bloodlust gave way to another obsession: murder. Harold Schechter, whose true-crime masterpieces are ''well-documented nightmares for anyone who dares to look'' (Peoria Journal Star), brings his acclaimed mix of page-turning storytelling, brilliant insight, and fascinating historical documentation to Fiend-- an unforgettable account from the annals of American crime. ...show less

Live-action movie with title sequence animated by DePatie-Freleng Enterprises.
Hawley Pratt did the design for the animated cat, producing as many as 100 prototypes. The film's director, Blake Edwards, walked over to one of the drawings and declared, "This is it."
Animated titles were still a movie novelty, but the Mirisch brothers- who headed the film studio, Mirisch G-E Productions- approved the idea and the expenditure.
A sneak preview of the movie was held at the village theater in Westwood Village, California.
Recalled animation producer David DePatie: "The projector started to roll and as the Panther first appeared, there was a ripple of laughter from the audience which quickly became whistles and roars of approval as the Panther toyed with the various titles. At the conclusion of the main title, the crowd went bananas."
The huge popular response to the title sequence led to DePatie-Freleng Enterprises releasing a long series of "Pink Panther" theatrical shorts, beginning with the Oscar-winning "The Pink Phink" (1964).
The movie's Inspector Clouseau character inspired DePatie-Freleng Enterprises' "The Inspector" series, which started in 1965.
Release date is that of screening in West Germany. Official "World Premiere" took place in the United Kingdom on January 7, 1964. United States premiere was March 18, 1964; general U.S. release date was March 20, 1964.
This film was one of 10 named to the National Film Preservation Board's National Film Registry in 2010.
The film grossed $10.9 million in the United States.
