Bericht von: Thomas S, Januar 2014 Englisch
Our guide Norman was wonderful. The township tour exceeded our expectations, we had a chance to meet the residents and learn about their lives, hear the children's choir sing and visit one of the shanties, The resident's resilience and spirit was remarkable and awe inspiring considering the harsh conditions in which they live and the cruel treatment they suffered under apartheid. Everyone should know their stories and I know I am glad I did.
Bericht von: AKU, Germany, Februar 2013 Englisch
This tour should be a must für all interested visitors. I've learned a lot about the history of apartheid and the townships. Dustin was a wonderful guide and his explanations
helped me to understand this wonderful country a little bit better.
Bericht von: David H, USA, November 2011 Englisch
Outstanding tour! It's great to see the positive things happening in the South African townships. Some of the friendliest people I've met. The tour guide was great in sharing his personal experiences with apartheid, too. Overall A+ tour.

Moto jackets are one of my favorite wardrobe essentials for fall. They're versatile, edgy and give almost any outfit an instant style boost.
You can't go wrong when styling a moto jacket so get creative, they go with almost anything. They can be paired with a feminine dress or evening look to create balance, make a simple outfit more stylish or if you want to go with the classic bad ass look there's always the jeans and tee combo.
Moto jackets are now available in variety of colors, cuts and fabrics which makes it easier to find one that works perfectly for your body type and personal style. When choosing one keep in mind that a diagonal zipper is great for slimming the waist, a straight zipper works well for those with a larger bust and if you'd like to create the illusion of more curves choose something with a cascade front. The best part is moto jackets are a classic and never go out of style. If you veer away from the trendier cuts and colors and stick with an updated classic you'll be able to wear it for years to come.

Ursula 1000 (a.k.a. Alex Gimeno), a slight, dark-haired man wearing small rectangular glasses, a devilish Vandyke, and headphones calmly operates twin turntables. Edward Bobb, tall, pale, and blond, hunches over a synthesizer and grimaces as he twists knobs and buttons, coaxing sounds that seem to come from outer space. Trumpet player David Font, an intense figure with a pronounced widow's peak, blows a few staccato notes and then stops suddenly. Off to the side of the stage, bassist Michael Elkind gyrates next to his huge upright. Clad in black and sporting dark-rimmed glasses, he looks like a beatnik but lacks the detached cool; he bounces joyfully from side to side like Snoopy in a Peanuts cartoon. Saxophonist Zane Hobbs stands with his straw porkpie hat set at a rakish angle, summoning notes from his horn. He seems to be in a trance.
He's not the only one. Although conversation is possible over the music, none of the two dozen fans on hand are talking. They are transfixed by the band's sound, a distinctly urban blend of styles that shifts tempos and moods relentlessly. One moment the musicians are weaving a tense sonic backdrop worthy of film noir, the next they're spinning out a soothing ambient groove.
So what exactly are these guys playing? Acid jazz is the easiest pigeonhole. And certainly, Satellite Lounge incorporates elements of that genre. But the fivesome is far too unorthodox for any one label.
Take the instrumentation: no drummer in this band. Instead, the rhythm section consists of Elkind's booming bass and Ursula 1000's sampled backbeats. These may vary from a fragment of the house hit "Gemini" by Alpha Rhymes to "Halloween Tricks and Treats," a Kid Koala song containing its own snippet of the cartoon character Charlie Brown inspecting his candy bag: "I got a rock!" Guitars are noticeably absent, as are conventional keyboards; Bobb's versatile Moog synthesizer fills that role. He produces a variety of whirs, hums, and pops that are ethereal, scary, and sometimes more grating than melodic. Font and Hobbs harmonize, their horns soaring sweetly over the jazzy din. At other moments, the sax and trumpet player cover entire tunes, such as Miles Davis's jazz masterpiece "All Blues." Songs stretch anywhere from eight to twenty minutes.
Satellite Lounge began its life not as a band but as a night -- Mondays at Churchill's Hideaway in Little Haiti. Created in January of 1997 by Miamian Edward Bobb, age 43, the evening attracted a small crowd of musicians and featured Jerk Machine, a duo consisting of Bobb on the Moog and Todd Quesada on keyboards. Bobb conceived of the project after listening to a slew of tracks by Soft Machine, a group of British musicians who forged a sort of jazz-rock fusion, minus guitars, in the late Sixties.
Using Soft Machine's work as a template, Bobb wanted to simulate roaring sounds of nature by utilizing a variety of electronic instruments, but no guitars. He ended up with freeform noise rock. His work with Jerk Machine led him to pursue a broader vision: using found sounds and instrumental lines to create a musical montage.
A pioneer of avant-garde music in Miami, Bobb began performing publicly in the early Eighties as half of the Neutronics, which shortly thereafter became the Happiness Boys. Employing the then cool Casio keyboard, electronic drums, and sequencers, Bobb and partner Stephen Nester performed live over taped sounds, introducing audiences to their brand of insistent, polyrhythmic techno. After releasing two albums on the Miami-based Duotone label, the Boys parted ways in 1984 and Bobb embarked on a solo career, composing dance scores and creating performance art pieces and video and sound installations in clubs and museums.
A few years ago, Bobb joined the faculty at Miami-Dade Community College's Wolfson campus as an adjunct professor, teaching courses such as experimental cinema and theater of sound. There he met music student Michael Elkind, age 23, who had come to Miami from Oakland to study classical music composition at the New World School of the Arts. "I was casting for a certain look and sound, and Michael fit in perfectly," Bobb says.
Elkind, a student of the bass for ten years and of the cello before that, took his upright to Churchill's one night to sit in with Jerk Machine. Bobb and keyboardist Quesada liked what they heard, and the duo soon became a trio. Bobb's concept began to take shape.

Advocate Editorial Board opinion: Sports is about more than winning games
By By the Advocate Editorial Board
Aug. 7, 2013 at 3:07 a.m.
Lambeth earns kudos for tenure as Jaguars coach
The University of Houston-Victoria hired the perfect woman to start its softball program.
Keri Lambeth embraced that challenge and took the program on a successful six-year run.
On the field, Lambeth's teams won at least 30 games each year, won two conference championships and earned a trip to nationals three times.
She was the epitome of success. So it was bittersweet news when she announced she's leaving the program for personal reasons.
She and her husband, Ryan, and two daughters, Kierstyn and Kyleigh, are moving to the Houston area, where Ryan accepted a new job.
The rigors of college coaching are tough on a young family.
Her daughters were born during her tenure as a coach.
"My daughters are 4 and 2. They've missed me a lot," Lambeth said. "It hasn't been easy doing that. I'm excited for the new adventure we'll have."
Lambeth's focus now switches from coaching college softball to teaching intermediate school students and coaching seventh-grade volleyball.
We're confident Lambeth has left the UHV softball program on strong footing. She's built a solid foundation, and interim coach Lindsey Ortiz should have plenty of success.
Ortiz has been with Lambeth from the beginning, first as a player and then as an assistant coach for four years.
"She has a fully vested interest. She'll do an amazing job," Lambeth said. "She's going to take over, and she's going to be great. We won't miss a beat."
One thing is worth noting about Lambeth's successful run as the Jaguars coach.
The on-field accomplishments are nice, but she's always insisted on strong classroom and volunteer work from her players.
"That's my greatest accomplishment - seeing so many of those girls graduate," Lambeth said.
That is something you can't overlook, and it deserves major kudos.
You had a good run, coach. Good luck in your new adventure.
This editorial reflects the views of the Victoria Advocate's editorial board.
Since their inaugural season in 2009, the Victoria Generals have brought fun, excitement and more to Victoria. Every year, from the first week of June to the middle of August, collegiate athletes come to our hometown to take part in the Texas Collegiate League.
But behind the games and ballpark action is a support system that hinges on everyday families who host the players year after year. According to the Generals' website, host families are responsible for providing some basic needs for players during the two and a half months the players are in Victoria. Players need a bed, access to a bathroom, one or two meals a day when the team is at home and access to the home either with a key or a garage door opener.
We applaud the families who are gracious and loving enough to accept these college players into their homes for the summer season. These families don't just give players a place to sleep and eat. Many of them, such as the Thornton and Shelby families featured in our Sunday Sports section, welcome these players and treat them as members of their families.
We would like to thank all of the families who volunteer their time and homes to host these players. Without your hospitality, the Generals would not be possible.
This editorial reflects the views of the Victoria Advocate's editorial board.

RoaringTiger wrote:Well, the bullpen has been pretty bad lately. Right now we don't really have a setup guy. It is kind of a situational basis. Based on everything that I have seen being at the games and watching them, I would say Bobby Seay would be the best bet to have the setup man role. That being said, Durbin might end up being the setup guy because he is probably the best pitcher in our bullpen right now. I wouldn't trust anyone coming out of the tiger bullpen right now, they have all been bad at times this year. Even when Rodney was in there, I wouldn't count on him to be consistent either...Basically without Zoom, our bullpen is pretty terrible.

Traveling can bring stress to your mind and body that can hinder your happiness and affect the overall quality of your trip. Even if you are traveling for pleasure, cramped plane rides, different mattresses, or stressful situations can put a knot in your back or give you headaches. Incorporating some yoga into your travel plans can greatly improve your experience, letting you relax and enjoy yourself.
With more and more people understanding the benefits of yoga, there is plenty of opportunity to find a great place to do yoga while you travel. Of course, a series of sun salutations in your hotel room can work just fine, but maybe take the opportunity to check out a new class while you are away. Maybe you always do Bikram, but have never given Vinyasa a try. Find a studio nearby or even check with your hotel to see if they offer any classes.
Some airports and hotels now even dedicated yoga rooms. According to Jane Levere "Hotels are providing yoga equipment and videos in guest rooms, as well as classes, often for no charge, while airports are offering yoga studios to passengers in transit". Stepping into one of these zen rooms before or after your flight can ease your tension and nerves about flying or help you reground yourself and refocus. If your hotel does not offer these classes then you could just perform your own yoga in the comfort of your hotel room. When I took a trip to Las Vegas I did my research on all the hotels in the area before I blindly booked a hotel. Of course price, location, and luxury level played a factor in my decision, but so did particular amenities that I care about. I researched by looking through reviews for Las Vegas Hotels here. These reviews seemed to point me in the right direction for a great yoga studio in a particular hotel in Las Vegas. Moral of the story is that if you do a little due diligence before your trip you can take full advantage of the amenities that you want.
If you aren't lucky enough to stumble into a hotel with yoga capabilities, try to find the time to incorporate some of your daily yoga into your routine. Travel easily throws of our body's natural rhythm and doing some simple practices in the morning can help you get back on track. The wonderful thing about yoga is you don't need to pack any extra shoes or equipment to get in a session. All you need is yourself and you can find a way to do your routine.
So, next time you are feeling irritable on a trip or find your body feeling stiff and out of whack, think about doing some simple yoga poses or stopping into a new class at your hotel. Take control of your mind and your body, wherever you may be.

There's a new display technology from a company called Prysm which is being portrayed as an alternative to LCDs and LED LCDs.
The company, which has been doing research and development for the past five years, is calling the technology LPD for laser-powered phosphor display. A laser is used to excite a phosphorous coating, thus resulting in an image. Unlike LCDs, there is no constantly-on backlight, which Prysm claims results in electricity savings of 75%.
The lack of a constant backlight also means black levels are higher with LPDs. Prysm also claims LPD panels are more environmentally sound and recyclable than LCDs ("ecovative" in their words).
LPDs have some similarity to the old CRTs (cathode-ray tubes), but the difference is that, in LPDs, the ray is a light beam and not an electron beam.
LPD feature rundown
- Lower power consumption
- Lower heat dissipation
- Recyclable
- Higher brightness
- Blacker blacks
- Any size or shape of displays possible
- No backlight to fail
Will LPDs replace LCDs for TVs?
But I don't know if LPDs are going to replace LCDs anytime soon. The literature on Prysm's web site talks about airport, cinema, government, and other large institutional use, and nothing about consumer applications. It seems the company is targeting large customers first to finance the technology's development, and it'll likely be a while before we see LPDs in the local TV shop.
Sites covering the Prysm LPD story include The New York Times' Gadgetwise Blog, Slashdot, and Xconomy.

Tech Tip
If you get tired of typing your password for sudo, but you don't want (or don't have permissions) to put NOPASSWD in your sudoers file, you can use the following procedure to update the sudo password timestamp and avoid typing your password.
Step 1) Create $HOME/bin/sudo-hack.sh:
#!/bin/bash while [ true ]; do sudo -u root /bin/true > /dev/null 2> /dev/null sleep 60 done
Step 2) Do an initial run of sudo to set its password timestamp:
$ sudo -u root /bin/true Password: *******
Step 3) Start $HOME/bin/sudo-hack.sh in the background:
$ HOME/bin/sudo-hack.sh &
Now you can use sudo without getting a password prompt, regardless of how long it's been since the last time you ran sudo.
Note: there are most certainly security implications related to using this procedure; of course, that's also true of using NOPASSWD in the sudoers file.
Tech Tip
The following methods can be used for resetting the root password if the root password is unknown.
If you use GRUB for booting, select the system to be booted, and add 1 to the end of the kernel boot command. If you're not presented with an edit "box" to add boot parameters, try using GRUB's edit command (the letter e). The 1 tells the kernel to boot to single-user mode.
The system now should boot to a root prompt. At this point, simply use the passwd command to change the root password.
Another option is to boot a rescue CD or an installation CD that lets you get to the command line. Once you're at a command prompt, mount the system's root directory if it's not already mounted:
$ mkdir /mnt/system $ mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/system
Now, do a chroot and reset the password:
$ chroot /mnt/system $ passwd
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

One hundred patients with computed tomographic (CT) evidence of liver metastases (and confirmation by biopsy or progression of disease) had serum levels of alkaline phosphatase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, and serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase measured within two weeks of scanning. All three enzymes were within the normal range in 33% of patients. Even with advanced involvement (defined as three or more metastatic lesions over 3 cm in diameter), 20% of patients had normal levels of all three liver enzymes. Although liver function tests (LFTs) (enzyme levels) are inexpensive and simple to perform, they failed to detect a significant number of patients with liver metastases.

Don't know anything about Hypochondria and Münchausen, but do they (or are they capable of) follow[ing] instructions given by authority? The concept of sick role presumes ability of the sick to play sick, you know. Besides, you don't even have to go so far to bring extreme cases if you want stir up the discussion a bit.
Dental patients do not fit in the Parsons' illustration of the sick -- and yes, outdated. Nonetheless, I think bringing social package into the analysis of sickness was pretty useful if you think about construction of social insurance, patients' rights, etc. Its relevance in contemporary context is in doubt, but the concept already served its role in 50~70's, and I assume not too many take it as a wholesome concept or anything.

Asia Stocks Weighed Down By Europe Debt Woes
By PAMELA SAMPSON
BANGKOK (AP) â¿¿ Asian stock markets were mostly higher Friday as momentum carried over from yet another record high on Wall Street.
The Standard and Poor's 500 index closed at a record Thursday, driven by more encouraging data on the U.S. economic recovery. The government said the economy grew at an annual rate of 0.4 percent in the October-December quarter, slightly better than previous estimates. The revision reflected stronger business investment and export sales.
South Korea's Kospi rose 0.7 percent to 2,006.41. Mainland China's Shanghai Composite Index added 0.4 percent to 2,244.79. Taiwan's TAIEX also advanced. Markets in Hong Kong, India, Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Philippines and Singapore for holidays.
In Japan, however, the benchmark Nikkei 225 index slipped marginally to 12,331.44 as the yen leveled off against the dollar and the government released figures for February showing the country's jobless rate edging up while industrial production fell slightly. Newly appointed central bank governor, Haruhiko Kuroda, has pledged to work with the government to end decades of growth-inhibiting deflation. His outspoken calls for action have raised hopes for results â¿¿ but analysts said they may also have created unrealistic expectations for a turnaround. "Unfortunately, the markets' expectations of the new Governor are so high that they will be almost impossible to meet, let alone beat," said analysts at Capital Economics in a market commentary. In Europe on Thursday, markets responded positively to the calm reopening of Cyprus's banks. Banks in the Mediterranean island nation were shut for nearly two weeks as the government negotiated a rescue loan from international lenders to prevent the financial system from collapsing. The FTSE 100 index of leading British shares, Germany's DAX and France's CAC-40 all closed higher Thursday. Italy's political uncertainty will also remain in the spotlight. Following inconclusive elections around a month ago, the country is still without a government, and that's raised concerns over its future economic path. Italy is the third-largest economy of the 17 countries that use the euro.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Viviva Like A Virgin
According to the manufacturer of Viviva Like a Virgin, this product is a female enhancement product that intends to provide vaginal lubrication while also increasing female arousal. Aside from that, it is also being marketed as an orgasmic enhancing product. Prior to judging the product, it would be best to assess it further and determine its ingredients.
People who are looking for a safe and effective sexual enhancement product should be knowledgeable about these kinds of products. These individuals should be informed about the ingredients of the product that they are going to buy to ensure that it is safe for use. It is important to know these things because sexual enhancement products have its effects on the overall function of the body and if it contains substances that are harmful such as parabens, it might pose a threat to one's health.
Overview of Ingredients
Although this product is being backed up by a website, it was still unable to provide necessary information such as the list of ingredients for the formula of this product. Although this is a topical application product, it is still necessary to have the ingredients listed so that potential buyers will be able to determine whether this product is reliable or not. There could be a lot of side effects as well as allergic reactions that can occur if you are not aware of the ingredients of the cream that you are using.
Analysis of Ingredients
The manufacturer of this product claims that this product is 100% safe; however, there are no clinical data to back up such claims. In addition, this product is not even listed as being an all natural product. An all natural product is more preferred since it contains natural ingredients rather than chemical ingredients which can cause side effects and pose threat to the individual's overall health.
The only information that this product mentioned is that it is water soluble. Aside from that fact, there is no information about the components of this product which makes it difficult to analyze. If you are looking for superior quality products, it should contain ingredients such as sweet almond oil, lecithin, and beeswax. These ingredients are proven to be effective but don't have side effects unlike chemical ingredients.
Although Viviva Like a Virgin is a topical application sexual enhancement product, it doesn't necessarily mean that it is safe to use. There are also a lot of topical formulas that are not safe to use because they contain the toxic chemical which is paraben. Thus, checking out the contents of the product is essential before buying it.
High quality products would always have their own product website wherein the list of ingredients is shown, as well as other pertinent data about the product. However, this product doesn't seem to have a special product website. The website that sells this item does provide some information but it is not enough to prove that this is an effective female sexual enhancement product.
In addition, Viviva Like a Virgin also does not have enough user testimonials to prove its effectiveness. Top quality products also offer free shipping, but the seller of this product failed to provide such offer.
* Topical formula
* Cheap price at $6
* Can be ordered online
* Doesn't have sweet almond oil in its ingredients
* Do not offer free shipping
* Ingredients are not disclosed
* Have few clinical data to back up claims
Final Words
Sexual enhancement products can be a very sensitive matter for many individuals; however, it is still important to have some knowledge about these types of products so that you wouldn't just buy and waste your money for a useless and harmful product. Viviva Like a Virgin is a doubtful product since it did not provide any information about its contents. Aside from that, there are also no customer reviews presented in the website that sells this product.
Instead, it would be best to choose products that contain safe and effective ingredients such as sweet almond oil and lecithin. Never purchase products that contain parabens since these chemicals are harmful and carcinogenic.

Drone strike killed Haqqani Network, Afghan Taliban commanders
According to reports from Pakistan, the two drone strikes that took place near Miramshah in North Waziristan over the past 24 hours killed a Haqqani Network commander, and two "prominent" Afghan Taliban military commanders. From Dawn:
A key Haqqani Network commander Haji Gul was killed in the early morning US drone strike in Dand-i Darpakhel area of North Waziristan Agency, Dawn News quotes sources as saying on Thursday.The drone strike also killed other prominent Afghan Taliban commanders identified as Mufti Sofian and Commander Abu Bakar.
Intelligence and local Taliban sources also confirmed that the drone strikes in Dand-i-Darpakhel targeted some explosive laden vehicles which were meant for some mission across the border.
The sources also believe that the militant group was preparing a squad and about to leave when it was attacked.
Some other commanders killed in the strike have been identified as Commander Yasin Gardezi, Abdullah Khan, Commander Jamil, Commander Asadullah. Their driver Noor Khan was also killed.
The local Taliban and tribesmen have also confirmed that the compound targeted belonged to members of the Afghan Taliban network.
The interesting thing about this report is that no top al Qaeda leaders or operatives are said to have been killed in the strike. As US intelligence officials told The Long War Journal yesterday after the drone strikes, there is no shortage of dangerous jihadists in Pakistan.
So why did the US break a nearly six-month-long pause in strikes in Pakistan to target what appears to be mid-level Haqqani Network and Taliban leaders who were plotting to launch attacks in Afghanistan? Did they "present an 'imminent' threat of violent attack against the United States," as a US Department of Justice white paper stated was required for targeting with drones?
READER COMMENTS: "Drone strike killed Haqqani Network, Afghan Taliban commanders"
Posted by Anthony Celso at June 12, 2014 1:20 PM ET:
The Administration's moratorium is just plain stupid. It was supposed to give the Pakistani government the room to maneuver a peace deal with the Taliban. Big surprise, it failed.! Since the President's second term the Administration has pursued so many myopic policies one must question their sanity at this point. This President has been badly served by what must be the worst set of foreign policy advisors in recent history. They exacerbate his deep fatalism recently expressed in his banal and defensive West Point address.
Posted by john at June 12, 2014 4:28 PM ET:
Totally disagree with Bill. The moratorium was not stupid. It came at the request of Pakistan, to enable "peace" dialog with the Taliban. It doesn't mean that the drones were not flown, just that they didn't drop any missiles but were actively engaged in surveillance. Meanwhile, the Pakistan - Taliban peace negotiation fell apart.
The Haqqanni commanders killed in this strike were said to be the same group that had captured Bergdahl. So it is clear that by getting him back freed the scene for resumed drone attacks on his captors, and preventing a likely attack on the Afghan presidential candidates from this Pakistani compound.
In my opinion, the President is doing a very credible job in balancing our strategic interests. This is a difficult time in history. There are so many good things to credit his administration, it's hard to understand your prejudice.
Posted by Jeff Edelman at June 12, 2014 9:25 PM ET:
The manner in which these terrorist organizations are structured it may be more disruptive to kill those at mid level. Whatever level, the level they have attained now is the most suitable.
Oh, and to John: Bovine scatology!
Posted by kush dragon at June 12, 2014 10:57 PM ET:
I doubt this was just a totally random attack on an inconsequential group of operatives. These guys were about to do something big, like kidnap another soldier or attack the elections. That said Pakistan has obviously given the US a little leeway to lob a few missiles after the airport attack.
Posted by Eric at June 13, 2014 3:08 AM ET:
Well, I guess the Pakistani peace talks are over. Taliban retains its perfect record of betraying every promise and assurance they ever spoke to the people.
If we are allowed to resume strikes, we should go after the Haqqanis with all the fresh intel. Like it was Shark Week.
The described target strangely resembles the recent assassination bombing attempt against Abdullah Abdullah in Kabul a short while ago. I guess the Pakistani ISI will have to wait a little longer to murder the head of state next-door.
If there were indeed strikes carried out against this Haqqani network and Afghan Taliban group and against another team of LeT, IMU and Punjabi Taliban targeting the group that undertook an attack on the Jinnah Airport in Karachi - within hours of each other.
How that reads: On-going surveillance of the group trying to kill Afghanistan's next president, but no permission to strike. Phone call out-of-the-blue. Its the general from the Pak ISI urgently requesting the strike on the IMU team. USA shrugs, figures "M'kay" and lets fly, seizing opportunity to do the other thing at the same time.
Or maybe its just a coincidence.
Posted by RickP at June 13, 2014 2:02 PM ET:
It kinda makes you wonder that we were able to bomb such targets so soon after being allowed to do so. Could this be another example of the ISI knowing where all these people are but not allowing us to hit them without permission?
Posted by James Albright at June 13, 2014 6:36 PM ET:
The strikes and the kills were probalby the Darwinians child like response to the response they received for releasing 5 Taliban commanders for a US defector.

Europeans first visited Illinois in the 1670s, when Father Jacques Marquette, a French Jesuit priest, led a small party of explorers west from Lake Michigan. Marquette's band examined lands the French crown had claimed sight-unseen during this period of empire-building.
The French, British and Spanish each established colonial footholds on the vast American continent in the seventeenth century and vied with one another for supremacy. Between the 1670s and 1763, the French controlled the sparsely populated Illinois country.
French voyageurs, trappers and missionaries built a hybrid society many historians have come to call a "middle ground." Although priests converted a significant number of Native Americans to Christianity, French settlers in North America generally respected Indian society and culture. Frenchmen and Indians mingled freely, exchanged ideas and cultural practices, and frequently intermarried. Native American tribes had for centuries practiced hunting, gathering, fishing and subsistence agriculture. The French found that their preference for hunting and trapping, and distaste for intensive agriculture, meshed easily with Native Americans' approaches to living in nature.
In the middle of the eighteenth century the French and British empires clashed in a conflict that has come to be known as the French and Indian War. French and Indian troops, sensing their mutually beneficial arrangement in the American backcountry, pulled together to oppose British forces. But the powerful British Empire briefly strengthened its hand in North America with victory in this struggle. The French slowly pulled out of North America. The British, for their part, determined that the territory west of the Allegheny mountains and north of the Ohio River should serve as a large Indian preserve closed to general settlement by English colonists.
By 1783 the American Revolution had produced an amazing reversal of fortune in North America. The United States of America stood as a new nation, and British redcoats retreated to a few forts in the northwest (today's Michigan and Ohio).
Americans eyed these lands, which the British had sought to set aside for Indian tribes, intently. As Americans pushed westward into the new frontier, they replaced the French and Indian "middle ground" social arrangements with a legal system emphasizing private property, economic goals emphasizing intensive agricultural and eventually industrial development, and cultural ideals that posited the rise of Christian civilization, marked Indians as savages, and mandated a firm distinction in gender roles.
Eastern officials struggled to administer lands west of the Alleghenies. In 1778 Virginia had announced that it considered huge tracts of western lands its own, and formed the County of Illinois, an entity that included all of present-day Illinois. By 1783 the Virginians had ceded these claims under pressure from the other new states. The Illinois country became part of the national lands, and eventually fell under the jurisdiction of Thomas Jefferson's Northwest Ordinance.
The Northwest Ordinance organized lands comprising the modern-day states of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin as the Northwest Territory. The Ordinance provided for a systematic surveying of the territories, laying out townships on a simple grid. Such an arrangement helped ensure that arriving settlers secured good title to their lands, and solved the persistent land disputes that had so disrupted the settlement of Kentucky.
The Northwest Ordinance also barred slavery in the new territory, but American settlers brought the peculiar institution west anyway, insuring a future of political contention and Civil War.
Illinois remained sparsely populated until the conclusion of the War of 1812. The federal government set aside large tracts of land between the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers for war veterans. While many veterans never made it to Illinois to stake their claims, the introduction of these federal lands to the open market sparked the large-scale settlement of central Illinois.
Before these developments American settlers had concentrated along southern Illinois' waterways, mirroring the French pattern of settlement. Most early settlers sought to maintain close contact with available water and timber, and feared pushing into the unknown prairies. Many southerners followed the Ohio and Tennessee Rivers west and north to the new Illinois country, and forged lasting ties with their southern homeland.
In 1818 Illinois officials succeeded in producing a population count sufficient to support a petition for statehood. Nathaniel Pope, Illinois' quick-thinking Territorial Delegate to Congress, moved the new state's northern boundary north from a position near the southernmost tip of Lake Michigan to its present position forty-one miles to the north. In doing so, Pope secured Lake Michigan coastline and the Chicago-Illinois River portrage, each of which proved very important in American economic development.
In 1820 55,211 souls made Illinois their home (a figure considerably below the 60,000 supposedly required for admission to statehood, suggesting Illinois officials' chicanery in 1818). By 1830 population had increased to 157,445. The 1830s proved to be a decade of enormous growth, and by 1840 476,183 Illinoisans lived on the prairie. By 1850 Illinois had grown to include over 850,000 inhabitants; on the eve of the Civil War, in 1860, over 1.7 million occupied the State of Illinois.
The large growth of the period after 1830 stemmed largely from improvements in the American transportation system. In 1825 New York State had completed the Erie Canal, linking the Hudson River with Lake Erie. The canal greatly facilitated westward migration from New England, and opened northern Illinois to a generation of Yankee immigrants.
New Englanders infused Illinois with their zeal for improvement and organization, which many described as the process of civilization. While many southerners in Illinois reveled in their individual liberty and casual living arrangements, Yankee settlers brought a firm set of social and cultural norms west with them.
Foremost among these was the idea that women should refrain from working outside the home and focus their energies upon their families, while men worked to support the entire household. A scarcity of labor had pushed many frontier men and women into roles in which they shared the farm and house work alike. Yankee ideals of feminine domesticity and civilization pushed this notion of household economy aside, and set the tone for social life well into the twentieth century.
Improved transportation networks also made Illinois a part of an increasingly national economic system that made Chicago its western hub. The construction of the Illinois and Michigan Canal linked the Great Lakes (and their eastern extension the Erie Canal) to the navigable Illinois River and, ultimately, the Mississippi and the Gulf of Mexico. By 1850 railroads had begun to link Chicago with the new west, and populated the city with large warehouses storing both products harvested in western fields and forests as well as eastern manufactured goods for sale to western settlers.
By 1860 Illinois was no longer the frontier. Farmers had turned the soil on a majority of the Prarie State's acreage. Small towns and cities dotted the landscape, and Chicago had grown into a national commercial center. In the years after the Civil War Americans would populate new, more westerly lands, subdue their Indian inhabitants, and fashion their distinctive system of legal, political, and cultural institutions.

Caterham team principal Tony Fernandes must be pretty pleased with how new employee Vitaly Petrov is faring in his new job. After replacing Jarno Trulli at the last minute, the Russian former Renault driver has demonstrated that its still possible to perform well during pre-season tests, despite an unfamiliar car. Petrov reflects on his uncertain winter and discusses his hopes for 2012
Q: Vitaly, you were almost left without a seat this season. How relieved were you that you made it in at the last minute?
Vitaly Petrov: It was obviously a pretty tough winter. It would be the same for anyone who wasnt sure what their job would be in the New Year. But even though it was difficult at times, I never lost the belief that it would come good and thats what has happened. As soon as we knew the situation with Renault we started working on a solution. And Caterham were always the best option, and the one that I saw most potential in, so its been really good to get the situation sorted out. Im not so much relieved but happy to be in my new team.
Q: When did Renault (now known as Lotus) let you know they didnt require your services in 2012?
VP: I was told for sure in December.
Q: The inaugural Russian Grand Prix is expected in 2014. Surely its only logical that it will feature a Russian driver
VP: I think its impossible to have a Russian GP without a Russian driver! It is one of the biggest motivations for me - to make sure Im on the grid in 2014. It must be the same for any athlete in any sport. To be able to compete at home means everything to you and its important to me that Im there and in a car that I can really compete in.
Q: Returning to Caterham, why do you think they chose you and not Jarno Trulli?
VP: Thats something youd have to ask the team I think. I know that I have developed a lot over the last two years and my first podium last year was another big step for me. So I think the team knows they have someone who can grow with them and help them develop.
Q: And what do you think you will bring to the table?
VP: There are a few obvious things, like the fact Ive used KERS last year and I have been with a bigger team. I know how they work and can help see areas where Caterham can grow.
Q: What appeals to you most about Caterham?
VP: I know Ive said it before, but I think its the chance to grow. Things at Renault were sometimes great and sometimes tricky, and even though they have a great past and a lot of history, Caterham is growing quickly and wants to make its own stories, so the chance to be part of that feels good.
Q: What about the car? The Renault at the end of last season was a tricky workplace. How does the CT01 compare?
VP: Apart from the Renault engine its totally different. The whole car feels different and one of the main tasks for me is to change my driving style to get the most out of it. I think I need to be less aggressive with this car than last year, so thats something Ive been working on with my engineer.
Q: Youve taken part in only two of the three pre-season test sessions. Will that affect you? Have you been satisfied with the running you have had?
VP: I think the team has made a huge step forward from the first test to now - and the CT01 has shown good consistency, which is a valuable asset to build on. This makes me pretty optimistic for Melbourne - as does the fact that we have never been more than about 0.5 seconds off the fastest time.
Q: This year you will have to fight your way back into the midfield again. What are your expectations?
VP: I think its still too early to tell. The team is being pretty cautious about what we want to do this year, so I think the main thing for me is to do the best I can and help them fight a couple of the teams in front.

After doing our lava lamp experiment, I've been on the lookout for more fun with science!
Especially experiments that my preschooler will find fun to do!
Here are a few experiments I found just on last week's It's Playtime! from my playdate friends!
[Science Sparks: What's Heaviest?]
A great experiment from Science Sparks. Find out what's heavier! This is a concept I need to run by Henry to find out what he knows. Being heavy or light is kind of an abstract thing to comprehend.
Even though a toddler wouldn't understand the concept and learning behind it, it would be a wonderful activity for them too! I bet George would get a kick out of the differences of each container!
- A science experiment I've been long meaning to try. Celery in food coloring at Creativity My Passion.
- Brenna Phillips experimented with ice with the preschoolers! Freezing and thawing!
- Mom to 2 Posh Lil Divas explored gases with a baking soda and vinegar experiment that blows up balloons
- Mess for Less explored baking soda and vinegar fizzing! This is just always fun no matter how you do it!

I am currently a master student of public health with a concentration in Community and Behavioral Health Promotion. I also work as a Student Assistant at the Zilber School of Public Health. Concurrently, I am the social/events coordinator for the Public Health Graduate Student Association.
The areas of research within the realm of public health that I am interested in pursuing as an academic are: Women's Health, Sexual Violence, Reproductive Health Policy, Cross-Cultural Gender Constructs, Sexuality, Global Health Disparities, Racism and Health, Global environmental justice, Sustainable Development.
I have a B.A. in French Studies from the University of Minnesota (Twin Cities). My undergraduate studies focused on postcolonial narratives and historical memory. While seemingly unrelated, I find that my academic background is most helpful in providing a critical lens to deconstruct the societal inequities that contribute to health disparities.
In between my undergraduate studies and graduate work, I accumulated experience in public health. I have several years of non-profit work experience as a mental health practitioner. I have worked predominantly with children on the autism spectrum and disadvantaged urban youth.
It is my hope that I will leave my masters work as an agent of change, ready to dismantle disproportionate disparities in health status.

LoginCritic Reviews for Fellini Satyricon
All Critics (23) | Top Critics (5) | Fresh (18) | Rotten (5) | DVD (8)
It's, by design, an overwhelming film, and sometimes an exhausting one, but the melancholy and wariness keep it grounded.
True, the various strands are never bound together, but with material this sumptuous it really doesn't matter.
Federico Fellini presents an incredible fresco-like vision of Rome's social structure 2,000 years ago in which survival and pleasure were man's sole motivating forces.
A shallow, hypocritical film, without a glimmer of genuine creativity.
The odd thing is that the excess seems visual and mythical rather than really sexual.
Fellini's characteristic delirium is in fact anchored in a precise, psychological schema: under the matrix of bisexuality, he explores the complexes of castration, impotence, paranoia and libidinal release.
Those who don't weaken and bolt for the door experience a one-of-a-kind visual adventure they are unlikely to forget.
Fellini received a well deserved Oscar nomination for this bizarre, wildly flamboyant but plotless spectacle, inspired by the firt century author Petronius, flaunting glorious production values.
Hedonistic buffet
It is a surreal epic that, I confidently believe, will outlive all its interpretations.
Visually stunning and sensationalistic.
It is so much more ambitious and audacious than most of what we see today that simply as a reckless gesture, it shames these timid times. Films like this are a reminder of how machine-made and limited recent product has become.
Felliini's ancient Roman tale with a modern message is as cynical and bleak as its images are startling and original.
The film is either a celebration of depravity or a warning against Godlessness, though no one knows which and Fellini doesn't bother to make the distinction himself.
an expansive, epic, dream-like mess of a movie
Audience Reviews for Fellini Satyricon
Fellini's fragmented "free adaptation' of Petronius' epic poem (much of which is lost) jumps around depicting adventures in the Roman world, from a decadent orgy/feast to the theft of a hermaphrodite demigod(dess), with a minotaur in between. Almost impossible to follow but always gorgeous to look at, it's a major indulgence from a major director; when extraordinary talent indulges itself, the results are usually worthwhile.
MoreSuper Reviewer
Satyricon is a feast of colour, surrealism and debauchery. It doesn't have the heart that 8 1/2 has or the tenderness of La Strada, both joint favourite Fellini films for me, but it is probably his greatest achievement as far as production goes. The whole thing is astonishing, awesome and utterly brilliant. The term masterpiece is often overused but not so here. The dialogue is wickedly funny.
Note - Some of the reviews here on flixster and on imbd are hilarious
'I know this movie is foreign and a Fellini so I'm supposed to like it' & 'I've torn between giving this five stars for the quality of the production and none for the perversion of it all...Themes of homoseual behaviour throughout..'
Hurry up Aaron Seltzer, your fans are getting restless!

Fellini innovated in his time, but it just feels tame and underwhelming by today's standards. On the other hand, I rather enjoyed the dialogue.

The cinema of the silent and Fascist eras in Italy was characterised by epic movies with mostly mythology-inspired themes. Mussolini, who came into power in 1922, the founder of Cinecitt�, did not underestimate the importance of cinema as a means of communicating with the masses. Fellini notoriously called Giulietta Masina's titular character in Notti di Cabiria after the 1913 movie "Cabiria" by Giovanni Pastrone, a grand production with a visual flair not so dissimilar to Satyricon. Literally hundreds of characters parade in front of the camera in this visual orgy of a movie, evoking the memory of lost "Kolossals", or gargantuan budget productions.
Fellini's movie was only loosely inspired by its literary source, Petronius's Satyricon. The nominal "plot" follows two young Roman men, the blonde Encolpio and the brunette Ascilto, introduced as rivals in love for the coquettish, androgynous slave-boy Gitone. When the latter chooses to be with Ascilto, the spurned lover Encolpio becomes involved in a series of adventures, all narrated with a familiar (to Fellini lovers), non-linear narrative structure with temporal inconsistencies and dreamlike, sudden changes of setting and mood. Encolpio attends the decadent banquet of a former slave, Trimalcione, now filthy rich. Eumolpo, an impoverished poet whom Encolpio meets on the way there, despises the wealthy man, all the more so for being rich and for having the nerve to also call himself a poet. The faint-hearted may at this point find much to object to ? the lasciviousness with which the banquet guests eat, drink and act lustful with one another is anything but subtle. The Trimalcione sequences felt to me like a satirical commentary on the rise of the nouveau riche in 1960s Italy. A highlight of the banquet scene is the story that the host narrates. It tells of a young widow, an oasis of cinematic calm in among the strident cacophony of the rest of the movie.
In a narrative passage which is reminiscent of the rhythm of dreams (typical of late Fellini, betraying his Jungian tendencies), Encolpio ends up captured by the pirate Lica, who takes him on board his ship. This is where the young buck meets Ascilto and Gitone again, also captives of the tyrant. At this point I was especially impressed with the extraordinary talent of Donati as a set designer. The ship wasn't built to look like a recognisable ship at all, but was rather like a symbol of one. Needless to say that no matter how abstract it was, you knew it was a ship, as its "ship-like essence" was all there! When Encolpio is beaten in a duel with Lica, he is forced to marry the pirate in a ceremony celebrated on the deck. But Lica is decapitated by some political rivals when a new Emperor takes over. "Everything changes so that it can all stay the same" is a cynical saying you still often hear in Italy. It refers to the fact that one greedy ruler will succeed another in a ruthless battle for power and privilege. That's when you realise Satyricon is a brilliant satire of modern society as well.
Encolpio and Ascilto then wander into the aristocratic home of a husband and wife who've just freed their slaves and committed suicide through bleeding themselves to death (a symbol of the death of aristocracy while the nouveau riche are getting fat?). After a threesome with a slave-girl who was left behind in the dead couple's empty home, the two young men attend a sort of sanctuary where an old man exploits the alleged healing powers of a very sick-looking, ethereal hermaphrodite child. Worshippers, lepers, cripples and sick people of all descriptions flock to ask for favours off the allegedly divine hermaphrodite. If this isn't a dark, ruthless parody of the Catholic practice of worshipping saints' relics, I don't know what is!
Subsequently captured by some soldiers, Encolpio is defeated by the Minotaur in his mythological labyrinth. The young man's life is spared when he literally talks the Minotaur out of slaying him, in a scene which is both post-modern and subtly comical. But a new humiliation is in store for Encolpio, which has him set off looking for the sorceress Enotea. Her story is told in flashback. Yet again, the prudish and faint of heart will not find the scenes of a cursed woman literally "giving birth" to fire through her vagina as their cup of tea! Though admittedly unsavoury, I also find such elements to be archetypically symbolic, and ultimately fascinating.
After visiting Enotea, Encolpio witnesses the killing of his friend Ascilto. Desperately upset, Encolpio decides to set sail for Africa on a merchant ship owned by the once-poor and bitter old poet Eumolpo, now as filthy rich and decadent as Trimalcione, whom he had once criticised for his parvenu vulgarity. When the old poet dies, he leaves a testament stating that whoever will eat his corpse will have a share of his wealth - basically, inheritance by cannibalism! Encolpio refuses the deal, while a group of greedy Roman dignitaries are shown chewing on what must obviously be the dead poet's tough old flesh, looking like so many fat cows chewing on their cuds. If a satire of a stagnant and greedy society was ever more potent and cutting than this, I would really like to hear about it!
Fellini himself defined this movie as being "Science fiction of the past". The movie's complete and intentional artifice, its occasionally obscure symbolism and gallery of grotesque portraits and strident soundtrack may not be everyone's thing. What is especially unsettling about Satyricon is that the viewer is led into a realm in which you have no idea what boundaries might be crossed. That's exactly why this is a perfect portrayal of an epoch of complete moral decadence - it drags the viewer into the exact same realm of uncertainty that the characters experience.
