Developer responds to residents' broadband complaints
In response to complaints from residents at the Kingsmere Estate in Bicester in Oxfordshire, about the lack of superfast broadband at their homes, a spokesperson for the developer Countryside Properties (Bicester) Ltd. issued a statement:
"We have completed the installation of all of the BT/Openreach ducting through the Kingsmere site based on a design agreed with them in 2010. It is then BT/Openreach's decision as to whether they would run copper or fibre through the ducting.
We are aware that the Kingsmere Residents' Association has been in direct discussion with BT/Openreach about how the provision of superfast broadband can be achieved at Kingsmere.
Unfortunately unlike with other utility suppliers we are only able to provide the ducting for BT/Openreach. It is then up to them what service they provide. We are however working with BT/Openreach and the developers and residents of Kingsmere to ensure that the situation is resolved as soon as possible to all parties satisfaction."
Residents angry over unreliable broadband
A group of people living on a new housing estate in Bicester in Oxfordshire say it is unacceptable that they do not have access to reliable broadband.
The campaigners say faster internet speeds were promised to them two years ago - but they are still waiting for improvements. The Kingsmere Residents' Association said members have made it clear they are very disappointed that Superfast Broadband is not available for most residents, through their representation at public forums.
The developers, meanwhile, say they area working with BT and the residents to ensure the situation is resolved as soon as possible. However, the homeowners are still unhappy, as resident Marcus Gilbert explains.
Emergency supplies leave Oxfordshire to help the victims of Ebola
Forty tonnes of emergency supplies have been loaded onto vans at Oxfam's emergency warehouse in Bicester, ready to be flown to Liberia to help stop the spread of Ebola. 230 thousand pounds worth of water and sanitation equipment - along with generators - will be delivered to the country. Tomorrow, a similar operation will see supplies sent to Sierra Leone. The death toll in West Africa has reached five thousand. Ian Bray from Oxfam spoke to ITV Meridian
Oxfam sends emergency equipment to tackle Ebola crisis
The loading of 40 tonnes of emergency equipment to help stop the spread of Ebola in Liberia has taken place this morning at the Oxfam emergency warehouse in Bicester, Oxfordshire.
Some £227,000 worth of water and sanitation equipment, including a drilling rig, generator, water tanks, pipes, taps and buckets, will be sent over to the country.
The aid will be vital in providing clean water and sanitation for people in Liberia and tomorrow will be sending a similar amount of aid to Sierra Leone where the crisis is getting worse.
People desperately need clean water. Clean water keeps people alive and it will help stop the spread of this horrendous disease. We're winning the battle against Ebola in Liberia but we are far from winning the war.
Appeal for workers to help build UK's first eco town
Developers in Oxfordshire are holding a drop in event to showcase the jobs and training opportunities available to construct the UK's first eco town. A variety of skilled workers are needed to build 93 homes in Bicester as part of the scheme.
The drop-in event is being held in the town centre at Unit 3 Crown Walk Emporium, Pioneer Square, on Friday 26th September from 10.00am to 4.00pm. The event is open to anyone looking for job or training opportunities in construction locally. A variety of work is available from ground clearance to bricklaying, carpentry, plumbing and electrical, landscaping or painting to roofers and administrative support. The developers says they are committed to creating a minimum of 20% local labour on site during construction
Army regiment bids farewell with parade through Bicester
The British Army will bid farewell to 23 Pioneer Regiment later today - a parade through Bicester will mark decades of faithful service. The regiment is being disbanded following recent defence cuts. The Duke of Gloucester will take the Royal Salute and the Regimental flag will be ceremonially lowered for the last time.
In recent operations the Regiment has carried out force protection duties, provided Improvised Explosive Device (IED) Search teams, as well as carrying out construction tasks in both Iraq and Afghanistan.
From 1917-1921 the Pioneers were known as the Labour Corps before becoming the Pioneer Corps in 1940. Other units will take up residence at St David's Barracks. The Pioneers long association with Bicester will remain, as the town has named its new shopping centre, 'Pioneer Square'.
World War artefacts and munitions seized in Bicester
As a result of information following warrants executed in St Albans, Hertfordshire yesterday to target the theft of heritage artefacts and munitions, Thames Valley Police has arrested a 35-year-old man from Bicester this morning on suspicion of theft.
A quantity of First and Second World War munitions were located, as a result of the arrest, at a residential address in Buckingham Crescent in Bicester. The man was arrested on suspicion of theft from heritage and protected sites and is currently in police custody.
It is suspected that the arrested man obtained these artefacts through illegal metal detecting, which is a heritage crime. It is a criminal offence to retrieve artefacts from the ground through using a metal detector if the land is a protected site or without permission of the landowner.
An exact list of all the items has yet to be established by investigating officers at the address. Controlled explosions are planned to take place in order to safely remove artefacts and munitions found at the address.
"These controlled explosions pose no threat to the general public. As a precaution we have evacuated a few properties in close proximity. The seizure will take some time to process all the items recovered. We have experts in place to deal safely with the items recovered."
"The practice of illegal metal detecting or stealing artefacts from the ground, particularly from conflict sites relating to the First and Second World Wars, is an issue that English Heritage takes very seriously. We recognise that the majority of the metal detecting community comply with the laws and regulations relating to the discovery and recovery of objects from the land. We are prepared to take action and do what is necessary including, working alongside the police, to bring those responsible to justice."

This very strange brew of film noir, magic realism, and screwball adventure is an entetaining mess.
MoreSuper Reviewer
What an oddball of a movie! Set during the early '60s but plays more like a detective story from the '40s, at least during the first half. Bridget Fonda is not an outstanding actress nor will she win a beauty pageant, but she's always held some inexplicable allure with me - Queen of the Plain Janes in a way. She does look her best as magician's assistant Myra who flees to Mexico with photographic evidence of her fiancee Senator Wyatt accidentally shooting her mentor. On her trail is P.I.-for-hire Ross, played by Russell Crowe still getting his feet wet in Hollywood. There is some great snappy banter between the two and they exude a nice sexual tension, and this section is the best part of the movie.
Then we meet Doc Ansell, amusingly played by Jim Broadbent, who wants to enlist Myra to acquire the secret formula to an elixir with magical properties from a reclusive woman who chants on a mountainside, and things get really goofy. A man turns into a sausage, a woman lays an egg that hatches a spider, a guy instantly drops dead, a dog speaks, people levitate, and a woman coughs up her heart. I have no idea what director Clare Peploe's grand design was for Rough Magic - many of these elements are fun but so bizarre it's hard to discern the function to the form.
This movie has gotten raked over the coals here on Flixster, and there is some justification, but it certainly is more entertaining than most bombs. Some great dialogue and chemistry between the leads buoy the original yet crazy developments; you could do a lot worse on a rainy day than by turning on Rough Magic.

Read that article if you get a chance! It seems to be the latest news on how Wilcher sees things with Urban.

I live in New Jersey, but am a die hard OSU fan since I grew up with parents from Ohio and there was no other team to root for in my house.
Read that article if you get a chance! It seems to be the latest news on how Wilcher sees things with Urban.
I see what you're saying, but I'm saying if he does pick up another injury to his shoulder it wouldn't necessarily affect his draft status as a non quarterback. He won't need to be able to throw at the combine and pre draft workouts. His shoulder would just need to reach a point where his range of motion allows him to catch balls. If he demonstrates the ability to catch balls and runs a 4.4 or better in the 40 he will still be a draft pick. His status wouldn't allow him to be a first or second round guy obviously, but he doesn't need to switch positions prior to the draft to get drafted. It could actually hurt him if he played as a receiver or an H back and isn't able to perform on the field next year. A torn labrum for a receiver or a running back isn't nearly as devastating as it would be for a QB. He doesn't need to be Brees 2.0. He just needs to be able to make teams believe he can be Randle El 2.0.
Maybe he would rather take his chances at QB and if he does get hurt I'm sure there is an NFL team that will sign him if not draft him as a receiver/running back/return man. QBs are known to be stubborn when it comes to changing positions and the only way I see Braxton switching positions is if he doesn't return to full strenght as a passer. I have always been of the opinion that if he is fully healthy even by week 4 or 5 he will be the starting QB.
Everything I have heard from Urban leads me to believe that he feels like he will owe Braxton at least a chance to show he is the starter. After all Braxton was injured for 3 games minus one series at the beginning of 2013 and if he had been able to get his 15 TDs give or take against the weakest portion of our schedule that year he would have broken all the records JT broke this year IMO.
It should also be noted that Cass Tech's coach Wilcher (sp?) was the one saying those things on the radio not Weber. Fans make the assumption that he was actually speaking accurately on behalf of Weber, when in reality we will probably never know whether he was expressing his own feelings based entirely upon his assumptions of Weber's feelings, or whether Weber ever actually addressed those feelings directly with his HS coach.
I am not saying the coach should be called names or anything of that sort. I'm simply questioning the credibility of his comments.
After what we saw transpire on the field this past season I will always feel good about a kid who wants to earn their offer. Darron lee showed me what confidence, hard work, and passion for the school can do to motivate a young player coming out of high school. I know the situations are slightly different, but I still like what I hear from a kid like Ward who didn't wait for OSU to give him what he wanted, and instead decided to go get what he wanted, an offer.
I am not aware of any...I believe you can have as much contact as you want with one of your own players. They can certainly visit him at school, but I wouldn't be surprised if they prefer to meet his whole family again, and make sure they all feel comfortable and get to know Alford better.
I would bet Urban Meyer has Alford on it already! His first order of business is/was probably to go straight to the Weber household.
I like that thought....
As Shawneebuck74 pointed out, a man by the name of Stephan Collier wears the scarlet and grey as well. He should be pretty darn good in his own right. He may have been a 3 star recruit, but he is 6'3 225 with a heck of an arm and very nice accuracy for such a young player. His intangibles are off the charts if you believe what Urban and Herman have said about him, and I thought he looked good throwing with Cardale pregame at the sugar bowl.
We will get to see a lot of him in the spring since he should be getting 2 type reps in practice. He should also get to play the entire spring game, and I for one am excited to see what the kid can do. He enrolled early last year and should have a good handle on the offense.
OSU could also make releasing him contingent upon choosing a school outside the big ten. I don't think OSU should release him and allow him to go sign wherever he wants including TSUN.
Even releasing him would send a terrible signal to future recruits, and set a very bad standard for OSU to follow. If recruit "X's" position coach leaves after they sign their LOI, then they just throw a fit so that OSU let them go elsewhere without some accountability on the recruit's side. I think that is a bad idea. I ALSO DON'T think we know what Weber wants to do. I am not saying he is throwing a fit, because his coach is the only one talking to a slanted reporter for TSUN.
If he is allowed to sign elsewhere then OSU need to make it contingent upon him not signing within the B1G or at least with any B1G East school.
According to Birm who has sources inside and close to the program, Mike Weber had been telling tOSU coaches he was solid on OSU and his commitment to them up until the night before signing day. Birm's track record demonstrates the accuracy and reliability of those sources, and I am inclined to believe what Birm's source(s) were telling him the truth, and if Weber doesn't notify OSU until the night before signing day that their only RB commit is thinking about changing his commitment, then I think Weber shoulders some of the responsibility for how this entire situation seems to have gone down.
However, I would like to wait for more information, which hopefully we will get at some point in time. Weber could have been deceiving the staff as much as Weber feels he may have been deceived. I think OSU would have liked the courtesy of knowing Weber was thinking hard about flipping so they could pursue an alternate option two weeks earlier. If Weber tells the staff a week before signing day that he is wavering then I think if tOSU coaches know Drayton might be leaving then they should have told Weber and his parents, but when you are talking about all this at the last minute on the night before signing day with no real opportunities to go out and sign another RB in this class then I think you try and keep Weber committed. As long as Weber did not ask directly for a guarantee that Drayton would be the RB coach this year, then I really can't blame Urban for withholding that information. If they told Weber the night before signing day about Drayton leaving, then they are also only going to make the decision all the more murkier for him. Both sides may have been a little bit misleading, but it is not a fact that both ides knew about everything well in advance.
It is entirely possible Drayton did not find out he was getting the job until Wednesday afternoon or even Thursday. If that is the case then it is just unfortunate timing. Urban knows his assistants are interviewing and i am sure a handful of his coaches interviewed for jobs and most of them did not get the job they got interviewed for anyway. The coaches don't and shouldn't go telling every recruit they are interviewing for another job when it happens with regularity and will only cause problems, and often the job is never offered. I think if the job was not offered prior to Wednesday morning then this is all just unfortunate timing.
If my memory serves me correctly the B1G started allowing 4 year scholarships to be awarded back in the 2012 class. I think I remember Gene Smith stating all of them (2012 class) were receiving 4 year scholarships. If this statement was made and in turn occurred it really doesn't matter if Urban tells them to leave. They know they have 4 years guaranteed. The difference with years prior and maybe since that class is that a player must have his scholarship renewed each year. Coaches can come up with a reason to boot them, but a coach loses that ability with the 4 year scholarship. That 2012 class will be seniors and redshirt juniors this coming season. Medical redshirts could change some of those guys eligibility status, but either way it is semantics if we're talking about 4 year scholarships.
Bogard, Reeves, Dunn, and Tanner received those guaranteed 4 year scholarships. Urban could tell them to leave and take a medical hardship waiver, or whatever the term used to recognize scholarship guys who do not count toward the 85, but IMO if the coaches aren't going to play them, those players can choose to transfer if they want to continue playing football or stay and get their degree on scholarship as a medical waiver.
To me oversigning is only dirty if the kid can't get his degree for free anymore from the school. Just my opinion, and I am sure others will disagree. The obligation is to give them a great college education, and as long as they can still get that from OSU, and if they want to they can obviously transfer if they wish to keep playing then I don't think that is really at all dirty. Kicking a kid to the curb with nothing is the dirty side of oversigning iMO.
I do believe Elliot's importance in Weber's recruitment was first acknowledged yesterday by Urban, which is a nice tactic by Meyer in itself. He isn't simply thumping his chest acting like he is this one man show out and is out there on the road recruiting these guys. He is the one who told the press that Zeke is the best recruiter he has seen in a player.
Well he did pull Prince away from his soft commitment to Alabama and Hill who was also deciding between 'Bama and tOSU. No offense to Jim mora, but beating out TSUN for a TE and slightly more impressively a Georgia LB from Georgia, none of those schools present the opponent that Saban and Alabama present in recruiting battles.
however, if you wish to offer a critique of Meyer then you should be pointing out that he failed to land Porter Gustin who chose USC on Tuesday. Granted Urban was trying to steal a kid in a few weeks who had been recruited hard for well over a year by UsC's staff, but still if you wish to nitpick then you can chalk that up as a loss. If TSUN had taken Weber back last minute it would have been hugely embarrassing and so there was a little more riding on that battle than the one Mora was fighting with them. Ultimately the Weber fight was about prestige and Urban's reputation.IMO
I think Dunn's recruitment when Meyer took the job back in November 2011 was similar, in that he was wavering on his commitment to tOSU and was seriously considering TSUN. Dunn and Weber were both similarly rated recruits and so I think there is some comparison when it comes to the importance of the fight.
I could be wrong so please don't DV the living hell out of me if that's the case, but I noticed during the season that the scholarship list seemed out of date. For instance Jayme Thompson transferred prior to this past season, and I think I noticed at least one other obvious mistake if the news I saw was correct, and the OSU athletic department's roster is correct he isn't on it. As a result I discounted that list as not being up to date. Maybe it's just one or two mistakes, but I wouldn't use that spreadsheet as fact. 11W is the best and I have no doubt it will be updated, but I think that list is out of date on at least Thompson and Dodson. I can't remember who the other player I noticed was present on the list but not on the roster.
if I'm wrong please correct me kindly!
I did see that the Google spreadsheet doesn't have those guys. Sorry, Im simply referencing the 11W scholarship grid.
You are incorrect in your statement regarding that '06 Florida team. Media were talking about Zook and how well he recruited while he was at Florida even before the BCS game in '06. They almost all point out how Zook couldn't win with those stud recruits who were now playing at a very high level for Meyer. Zook couldn't coach. It was meant as a complement to Meyer, and was thrown around even before the clock ran out during the BCS title game. I am almost positive the broadcasters brought Zook up during the game. Florida fans simply tried to change the narrative AFTER Meyer left, because they wanted to discredit him. Credit went his way while he was there for what he did with the same players that Zook could only take to 7-5 record.
In relation to tOSU, it doesn't really matter to me whose players are whose and anything else regarding the make up of the current roster. JT took tOSU program to another level when he took over for Cooper, and Meyer has done the same with the standard from the Tressel era. The bar has been raised higher with each permanent HC since Cooper. The program has continued to improve and that is all that matters to me. They are both fantastic coaches! One is already a HOF coach and Meyer will be there too one day.
You're exactly right. How would both JT and Cardale leave early if one of them is holding a clip board? NFL scouts would like to see some snaps in the season leading up to a guy leaving early. I think if Cardale gets the job he will definitely leave early, because if he is good enough and consistent enough to start next year then he is almost certain to be seen as a high first round pick at that point. If Cardale doesn't start then he will almost certainly transfer and play immediately somewhere else for his senior year, because he will graduate in December 2015. Braxton will be out of eligibility so obviously he will be leaving regardless, and that means JT will be the only QB left out of the 3. IMO he isn't the type of QB who will be drafted early due to the NFL's obsession with size and arm strength.
verdict: JT will be around no matter what and Braxton and Cardale will be gone.
I know when the game was being played back in '02 a lot of people pointed to Cooper as the guy who recruited a lot of the studs on that team. It was similar to the way people point out that Ron Zook recruited most of Urban's national championship team at florida in '06.
Yup, especially with Art's son calling plays. He looked like a HS cool kid on the sideline of the Cotton bowl with a headset on. Bring your kid to work day or something.
Yeah when I read that comment I immediately thought, wow that wasn't really close at all. Bucks got an 2-1 majority. Sounds like enough to change the American constitution in congress.
During the slowest time of year for CFB (after signing day and spring ball, and before fall camp begins in August) ESPN will occasionally go back and re-rate a top 50 or top 100 for classes. I think they usually choose 3 or 4 years into the past and then rerank them and write a piece on all of it.
Even with the - 3 to margin in the NCG we still finished +7 on the year. We were plus 10 going into the game. It's not like we had a negative turnover margin on the year. I would rather see our guys trying to make plays rather than worrying about being benched. Corey smith might go out of bounds rather than try to get the extra 20 yards next time if Urban benched players for fumbling.
in fact I think a player like Rod Smith may have turned out entirely different if he hadn't been benched for his fumbles early on as a freshman.he became more concerned with covering the ball up than finding the best running lane. It messed with his head IMO.
Jones' size alone is what makes him the best pro prospect OSU has at QB. Barrett and even Brax are both undersized for what most NFL teams would look for in a QB. Add in his arm strength and you have a player who would at least get looks form NFL teams even if he never started a college game. Matt Cassel anyone?? Back up at USC and still gets drafted in 7th round.
Is Gibson enrolling early? I thought I remember him being one of the guys who will enroll in January. If he is enrolling early then there is no need to worry until signing day in February, because he will be a buckeye signee as soon as he arrives for the spring semester.
It would be awesome for Grant's NFL draft stock if he could have a lock down performance against Cooper and 'Bama. It would instantly put him on any NFL team's radar who needs a corner. I think he has been projected depending on the "draft guru" you trust as anywhere from a 3rd rounder up to 1st round. A game and an opponent like this would do a lot to help him move towards the 1st or 2nd round.

There was nothing on the page to confirm my submission, so I assume it was not accepted. This has never happened before, usually I get a confirmation, or lately it just sits there and does nothing when I click Submit.
Any suggestions on what I need to do to get this submitted? Thanks.

Do you get back to your customers as fast as the DMOZ people did here when there is a problem ....?
Thought not!
Thanks for time taken Guys ..
I 'm not a DMOZ editor myself or anything like one ..
I do however appreciate enormously the service ....
Have you tried resource - zone, I am betting they are at least as quick!
I don't see why: it turned out to be a general problem, and the question was asked without reference to any specified site.
We editors are delighted to be able to answer this kind of query ... thanks to the moderators who allow it, and also to the submitters (at this and other forums) who brought the matter to our attention, so WE could tell our techs, so they could fix it.
Despite all the spam that comes in, we do get valuable help from most submitters, and in calmer moments we don't want to see submittals cut off, even by accident.

Editors' Review
+StarLight for Mac connects to SiriusXM's network of stations and allows you to stream them. It features a clean main window and places an icon on your Mac menu bar that gives quick access to your favorite stations as well as playback controls. To use the app you need a SiriusXM account.
StarLight for Mac installs quickly and, after being launched, presents you with its clean and minimal main window. Apart from a few playback controls, the majority of the screen is reserved for displaying your favorite stations or search results. Along with the standard playback controls, the app features an automatic playback and resume should you quit the app or lose Web connectivity. StarLight can act as an audio source for AirFoil, effectively adding AirPlay functionality to the app when used together with the AirFoil service. While testing, we were able to play and favorite stations without issues or delays; stations took ten seconds to start playing at most. In case you have a slow connection, you can adjust the timeout settings in StarLight's preferences.
If you like listening to SiriusXM radio stations while on the road, you will definitely appreciate StarLight for Mac. The app is pleasant to work with and stays true to the OS X aesthetic while giving you easy access to entertaining radio stations. If you don't have a SiriusXM account, however, the product will be useless since it cannot be used as a general media player.
Publisher's Description
+StarLight is a simple, ultra-slick, revolutionary SiriusXM compatible player. Its features include Secure Login, Super fast, Dynamic Channel Listings that Auto Update. Hidden Parental Controls keeps kids away from Adult content (see Read me). Recent additions include Stars (favorites), AutoPlay, and AutoReconnect. Advanced channel search and customizable table sorts. SiriusXM limits you to 10 favorites, but StarLight's Stars are limitless. You can even search within your favorites. Sort and Search by Stars, Channel #, Genre, Category, and Description. And that's not all StarLight natively supports Rogue Amoeba's AirFoil 4; you can enjoy StarLight through any AirPlay compatible device or computer with AirFoil 4 (requires additional software not included).
What's new in this version:
Quick update to work with SiriusXM's recent beta changes.

Real Backwoods nothing fancy BBQ off of route 40 on way to Holden Beach NC
- 18
- Follow
I don't want to come too far off the interstate but a place that looks like they're serving BBQ out of their house! Or a good soul food buffet?
re: lpatter
So I-95 south to I-40 to Wilmington? Not a lot of good options close to the highway on that route, unfortunately. There are several previous posts for bbq along I-95, if you do a search you will find them. My suggestion wold be to stay on I-95 past I-40 to Lumberton, NC and eat at Fuller's bbq. It's right off the interstate. The 'q is not that great, but they have a huge buffet of southern-style food, including lots of great veggies. Get back on I-95 south a couple of miles to Highway 74, to Hwy. 211 to 17.
re: lpatter
B's is good and fit the atmosphere you want perfectly, but you want to hit it early, especially on Saturday. Greenville is also pretty far off the route you described earlier. On the other hand, your route back to I-40 would take you right past the Skylight Inn in Ayden, which is really, *really* good.
On the other, other hand, the drive from Greenville to I-40 is a major PITA once the 4-lane runs out south of Pink Hill.
0 -
re: lpatter
B's is very popular, probably amongst people on this board as well. But you'll be nowhere near unless you change your route.

I posted the bind instructions several days ago for someone who asked, and at his request I made him a copy. Since then, I found the manual is posted under the Files tab on HK's product page for the HK6DF. Here's a link....be sure you follow it to the letter (with one exception), and it should work. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...5X88665X37.pdf That exception: on step 4 where it reads "Holding the bind switch in the up position now switch on the transmitter" should read "While PRESSING the bind button, switch on the transmitter". Those instructions also tell you what indicators signal each step's responses, so you'll know you're proceeding correctly. One additional thing, in case you don't know where to connect the bind plug -- it goes into the Rx socket with only 2 pins -- which is farthest away (opposite end) from the #1 socket. |
Sep 07, 2011, 02:56 AM | ||
Thanks for your kind words, AJ....but I'm basically just returning the favor and giving back things you great bunch of guys either gave me, or I found somewhere because of your stimulation of my interest. Yes, I'll confess I'm excited by this li'l plane & the portal it's provided into this exciting world, and I guess it shows. I just hope (as I sometimes worry) I'm not having TOO much to say, & that some don't feel like I'm hogging too much page space. Most of my input is based on spontaniety....someone writes something & it makes me think of a fitting response, and I reply. I'm afraid even with my writing experience, I don't have much of an idea as to how a blog should be organized....no editors around to help with that *LOL*. Let me think about it and, I'll likely PM you for further discussion. That good? |

Sure, hot glue (low to medium temp) will work fine. However, it is as heavy as epoxy.

Syria: One death among 93,000
World View: Ghassan al-Khouly was a builder, husband and father killed by a mortar while guarding an Old City gate in Damascus last week. This is his story
The second of two mortar bombs killed Ghassan al-Khouly as he stood guard last Thursday at an ancient gate into the Christian quarter of the Old City of Damascus. It exploded right beside him killing him instantly, dark bloodstains and a small heap of stones today marking where he died.
Barakat al-Shamas who was standing guard with him, said: "I heard the sound of a shell coming in and I threw myself on the ground. When I got up I saw there was so much blood that I knew Ghassan must be dead." Barakat was wounded with a piece of shrapnel penetrating his right hand as well as his neck and left leg.
Ghassan al-Khouly, an unemployed labourer who specialised in tiling floors, was one of the latest of an estimated 93,000 Syrians to have died since the start of the civil war in March 2011. Other than the fact he was a Greek Orthodox Christian, his experiences were not very different from those of many other Syrians caught up in the war.
His widow, Nour al-Sabek, says that until two years ago he was fully employed but when the rebels came all that was finished. They hold outer suburbs of Damascus where most of the new construction was, and as a Christian he did not dare go there. Everybody who is not a Sunni Muslim Arab assumes they are in danger of being killed, kidnapped or robbed in rebel-held areas. Forced to stay in the centre of the city he tried to eke out a living by doing odd jobs fixing electrical wiring, setting up satellite dishes and flooring. His family became poorer.
I started to learn about the life and death of Ghassan al-Khouly after I heard four rifle shots fired at regular intervals while I was walking to the great Umayyad Mosque in the Old City just before Friday prayers. It did not sound like a gunfight, and it turned out the shots had been fired by an honour guard bringing a body home for the funeral later in the afternoon. We learned the name of the dead man but were told that it was not a good moment to see his widow and her two sons. But if we wanted to know what had happened we should talk to Barakat al-Shamas, who had been wounded in the same incident but was just back from hospital.
I knew that Ghassan and Barakat had both been in the National Defence Force (NDF), a 60,000-strong militia organisation that has been publicised abroad as being a ferocious pro-government paramilitary organisation, freshly trained to turn the tide of war in Syria. The NDF may contain such units but in the Old City of Damascus its members are very much like the Home Guard in Britain in 1940. Everybody between the ages of 20 and 65 is meant to join, and many are quite elderly.
We met Barakat, not looking at all intimidated by his experiences, surrounded by friends sitting in the guest room of his house. He extended his right hand which was covered with a blood-stained bandage as if he had forgotten for a moment that he cannot shake hands with anybody.
I was surprised by the age of the two men who had been doing sentry duty: Barakat said he is 65 and Ghassan, the dead man, was 10 years younger. A photograph of Ghassan was on his death notice announcing funeral arrangements which had been pasted to walls in the Old City. The picture had the de-personalised look of head-and-shoulders ID photos, but showed a narrow-faced serious-looking man with a black moustache.
The rebels regularly fire mortars into districts of Damascus they do not control. This is difficult to stop because the rebels jump out of a car, take a mortar and a shell from the boot, fire it and are gone in a few minutes. This is their reply to government artillery which fires constantly at rebel-held districts. Ghassan and Barakat could not do much about the mortar attacks, but they were meant to stop rebels infiltrating through the Bab al-Sharqi, the Eastern Gate, into the Old City. "Old men are better at this because they know everybody who lives here and can pick out strangers," said a local observer.
"Our shift was meant to end at 2pm," recalled Barakat. He and Ghassan had moved to the north side of the gate to stay in the shade. It was then that the mortar bombs came down, one on either side of the gate. They did not leave much of a crater in the hard ground, but, aside from hitting the two guards, the shrapnel peppered an empty school bus and smashed its windscreen.
Nobody could be certain where the mortar was fired from but they thought it might have been Eastern Ghouta, a rebel stronghold to the east of Damascus under pressure from government forces. The mortar fire is the rebels' way of showing they are still in business.
The outside world focuses on the Syrian refugees that have fled the country, but millions have also fled to the uncertain safety of Damascus where they are crammed into houses. Christians, once 6 per cent of Syria's 23 million population, feel particularly vulnerable. Wael al-Shamas, the son of Barakat who works in a bank and speaks fluent English, described how the world he lived in was increasingly confined to a few Christian districts. He said: "I don't have the courage to go outside these areas." He said a problem for the Christians is that they do not have many places to flee to where they are safe. They are also often unemployed.
There are other less obvious difficulties. Wael said his father suffered from diabetes, and so far the government provided medicine free but he was worried what would happen if that stopped because buying it privately was very expensive. He added: "There is also a transport problem simply getting the medication from one side of the city to the other."
All over Damascus day-to-day living is getting more difficult and expensive. There is still cheap government-subsidised bread, but there are long queues outside bakeries. Everything which is not subsidised is costing more and even people with jobs are paid in rapidly devaluing Syrian pounds. Last weekend, the pound's value fell 30 per cent against the dollar before making a partial recovery. The streets of the Old City which would have been packed with pilgrims and tourists around the great monuments two years ago are empty. The restaurant of the Four Seasons Hotel still serves four different wines by the glass but had only a single customer.
I went to see Ghassan's widow, Nour al-Sabek, in the family house where she was living with her two sons, Shadi and Sherbel. A friend had said he was worried that she would have nothing to live on, her close relatives and friends had also lost their jobs. As people came to pay their respects, the family sat near a large picture of the dead man. I asked Nour why her husband had joined the National Defence Force since it paid almost no money.
She replied that he loved his country and was frightened for his church, his children and his friends. Others said there were about 600 Christians in the neighbourhood who had joined the NDF and eight had been killed by mortars, snipers and bombs. Nour described how her husband had tried to scrape together a living by doing occasional jobs in the last two years. There was discussion among family members about the probability of Nour getting a lump sum from the government and a pension because her husband had been martyred. They thought this likely, going by past experience, but not absolutely certain.
While we spoke there was the booming of outgoing artillery in the background but nobody paid any attention to it since this has been typical background noise in Damascus for the past year. There was not much talk of general politics until Ebtisam, a thin, short, nervous-looking woman who was the sister of the dead man, asked me: "Why does your country send weapons to Syria? Without foreign support we would finish the rebels." She said that in the past she could walk home in the middle of the night, but now I must ask my brother to pick me up."
Everybody who had gathered to mourn Ghassan al-Khouly said how good relations between Muslims and Christians had been in Syria before the revolt. This has not always been true historically, since between 5,000 and 10,000 Christians were massacred in Damascus over eight days in 1860. But somebody remarked that there had been more Muslims than Christians in Ghasan's funeral procession. His sons had remained silent while their older relatives talked about their dead father.
But just before I left, Shadi, aged 13 and looking grief-stricken, suddenly said in a loud voice: "The people and the world loved Ghassan al-Khouly."

Basketry is actually my second career. I spent almost twenty years as a school psychologist. It is appropriate that my baskets become mathematically based, having spent my earlier career with testing, measurements, statistics, and math.All of my baskets utilize Fibonacci numbers and the Nature Sequence to create baskets with a rhythmic, naturally flowing design. When you respond to my work, you are responding to the same proportions, ratios, and numbers that occur throughout the mathematical structure of spiral growth in nature. I am as passionate about making baskets today as I was when I started weaving in 1983.

The company said its goal is to create a device with zero setup time, no learning curve, and one that works with all platforms and devices. The $35 Chromecast is a radically different approach to TV than Google's previous failed attempt, the Nexus Q. It's smaller, cheaper and available starting today. The two-inch dongle looks like a thumb drive and pops into the HDMI port on an HDTV. It turns your phone, tablet or computer into a remote. Choose what content you'd like to stream and the Chromecast will play it on a nearby TV. "The television is missing in the (streaming-video) picture. it is really, really difficult to get your online videos on the television," said Sundar Pichai, Google's senior vice president of Android, Chrome and apps, at Wednesday's press event. Google unveils upgraded Nexus 7 tabletChromecast supports both Android and iOS devices. At its event, Google demonstrated the device using a Windows laptop and an iPhone. Chromecast also is streaming directly from your Wi-Fi connection, so it's not draining your device's battery. That means you can multi-task, checking e-mail on your computer, tablet or phone while a custom YouTube playlist broadcasts on your TV. The device currently only streams content from YouTube, Google Play and Netflix, though more apps, such as Pandora, are expected in the future. A beta feature lets you stream any tab directly from a Chrome browser running on one of your non-TV devices. With Chromecast, Google is seeking a foothold in a small but growing field. Only 15% of households have figured out how to watch online video on their TV sets, according to Google. The device goes head-to-head with existing Internet-on-TV solutions like Apple TV or the Roku box.The Chromecast stick is on sale now in the Google Play store and at electronics retailers such as Best Buy, although it may not ship immediately. A purchase of Chromecast includes three months of free Netflix streaming.Opinion: Apple becoming a follower, not a leaderMore from techTecnología sin límites No!

Lopez says late-night hosting days are behind him
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) - Amid rumors of another "Tonight" show shake-up, comedian George Lopez says he has no desire to return to the late-night talk show scene.
Lopez said he had a great two-year run as a late-night talk show host. But, he said, "I'm out of that thing."
"I know all those guys. They're all good guys, but that's a tough job. There are a lot of tough jobs in TV. That could be one of the toughest, hosting a show every night," Lopez said Wednesday night.
Lopez's comments in Sioux Falls before taking the stage for a stand-up show benefiting the Brennan Rock & Roll Academy come after amid fresh turbulence in the late-night talk show business after word leaked last week that "Late Night" host Jimmy Fallon will unseat Jay Leno as the new host of NBC's "Tonight." The network has not confirmed the rumor.
Lopez wound up losing his cable television gig in August 2011 in a trickle-down effect from the last time the "Tonight" seat changed hands.
TBS canceled "Lopez Tonight" after its second-year viewership dropped 40 percent when Lopez moved his show back an hour to midnight to make room for Conan O'Brien. Lopez gave up his 11 p.m. Eastern slot to accommodate O'Brien, who joined TBS after a time-slot dispute that ended up reinstating Jay Leno as "Tonight" host.
Lopez said he had a great time hosting the TBS show and that the gig gave him the opportunity to get to know everyone in the entertainment field, from actors Helen Mirren and Ben Kingsley to musicians Prince, Janet Jackson and Snoop Dogg.
"I tried to create a party, and we did," he said. "The greatest was getting a harmonic from John Popper and then doing shots with the band, Blues Traveler, in the back."
Lopez joked that he's probably better off that the party ended "just for the fact that I wanted to live a little bit longer."
"We went hard every night," he said. "We did it like the old days. You'd sit around and drink till like 11 and then go home and come back and do it all over again.
Lopez said he's been keeping busy since his show was canceled, voicing parts for "Smurfs 2" and "Rio 2" and working on an "alleged project in TV." He was recently anointed by Bill Cosby to take over as master of ceremonies of the annual Playboy Jazz Festival.
"He called me himself and he said he'd like for me to succeed him, which is a tremendous honor," Lopez said. "And also we had a 40-minute conversation of the dos and don'ts of hosting."
Cosby has been a fixture at the gathering of jazz luminaries since the first festival in 1979. This year's show, scheduled for June 15 and 16 at the Hollywood Bowl, will feature Herbie Hancock, Jeffrey Osborne, Sheila E. and Grace Kelly.
Cosby's tips for Lopez included not letting the musicians into his dressing room. "They won't leave and they'll eat all your food and drink all the drink and smoke all that funny stuff."
