6:43PM: The live blog is about wrapped up for the night. Accumulating snow has ended across the region, with record daily snows at Dulles and Reagan Airports.
Tonight, low temperatures will fall into the single digits in the suburbs to low teens inside the beltway. Anything that isn't shoveled will freeze solid by tomorrow morning. Highs tomorrow should approach the 30 degree mark but with mostly sunny skies and a higher March sun angle, there should still be plenty of melting.
Temperatures should move into the 40s Saturday and 50s Sunday. Have a good night, enjoy the snow and stay warm!
5:46PM: Snowfall totals across the area have mainly been in the 4" to 10" range, with the highest north and west of D.C.
Here is the latest snowfall report list from the National Weather Service
5:14PM: Snow will gradually end over the next hour with a few flurries remaining through the evening. Reagan National recorded 4.6" for the day breaking the record of 4.4" from 1888.
3:16PM: The back edge of the snow is beginning to show up on Live Doppler Radar along the I-81 corridor. Light snow or flurries may continue to persist there but should taper off over the next hour.
Snow should begin to taper in the D.C. Metro around 5pm and closer to the Bay by 6pm. Patches of flurries or light snow showers may be possible through the early evening.
2:41PM: Sorry for the hiatus! The back edge of the snow is finally starting to show up on our StormWatch 7 Super Doppler. The heaviest snow is now south and east of D.C. and will continue to be there through the remainder of the event.
That being said, there is still moderate to heavy snow in D.C. I expect another few inches around the D.C. Metro before the snow ends closer to 5pm or 6pm this evening.
Roads have a lot of slush on them right now, which will more than likely freeze solid in many places overnight with lows in the single digits to low teens. Record lows are expected to be broken at Dulles Airport and BWI Airport tomorrow morning.
12:09PM: A mesoscale discussion for heavy snow was again issued for the D.C. area concerning heavy snow banding continuing to push through the Metro and eventually south through the evening hours. As areas to the south and east haven't experienced as much snow yet, they aren't out of the woods yet and measureable snow is still expected.
11:25AM: The heaviest snow bands remain just north and west of D.C. and appear like they will move into the D.C. Metro over the next hour. Snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour will be possible.
Snow still looks like it will come to an end closer to 5pm or 6pm this afternoon. Here is a link to the latest snowfall totals.
10:43 AM: Heaviest snowfall shaded in green. Snowfall rates of 1" an hour in these locations. This includes you, in Leesburg, Great Falls, Poolesville, Gaithersburg, and Rockville.
- Live Super Doppler
9:57AM: Please, please, please try to beat this picture... It's amazing.
- Finley seems to be enjoying the snow today!
9:23AM: You can check out the area roadways at the sites below.
Virginia: http://www.511virginia.org/
Maryland: Coordinated highways action response team
9:04AM: Sampling of current snowfall reports across the region...
Dulles Airport: 1.0"
Berryville, VA: 0.9"
Leesburg, VA: 0.5"
Herndon, VA: 0.7"
Inwood, WV: 2.0"
Columbia, MD: 0.7"
Hagerstown, MD: 0.7"
8:48AM: The Storm Prediction Center placed the D.C. area under a discussion which focuses on the likelihood for heavy snowfall this morning through the afternoon. Snowfall rates of an inch per hour or more will be possible through the day.
Please keep sending your pictures in via Facebook and Twitter!
66 eastbound at Markham. Sleet and snow mix- very slick!
7:49 AM: Dulles Greenway snow covered and looking very slick in Ashburn - Loudoun county. Thanks, Dave Johnson, for sending this! Keep your pictures coming! #DMVSnow
- Dave Johnson - Dulles Greenway - Ashburn, VA
7:32 AM: Snow Emergency Plan in place for Howard, Carroll, Frederick, and Washington counties per MD State Highway Administration. Roads are already snow covered in these areas. Road and travel condition will only get worse over the next several hours.

quote:Advanced metrics also have Hornets D as least efficient defense in the league.
quote:Or that we are one of the worst scoring teams in the league, again, just like every season since he's been here.
quote:And we don't foul up 3 with 4 seconds left. Unreal.
quote:Let's just ignore that every time he draws up a play at the end of a game to win it it's a fricking abortion.
quote:Wrong. 16, 26, and 18 in offensive efficiency his three years. The PPG is a flawed stat because they play so slow. Likewise his defensive prowess is overrated because of pace
quote:The bitching on this board is unbelievable. You'd think we were the Lakers. We're a young, bad team, who's in the middle of a rebuild and we just got a really nice win. ....lets spend the next hour bitching and complaining. The game threads are like an episode of "real housewives" with all the emo whining over every missed shot.
quote:We'd still be a dumpsterfire.
quote:I do think he needs to work on how he runs an offense, but it's so hard to get a competent offense with incompetent players. One thing I do notice is that our bigs need to set better picks. A lot of times it'll be a very lazy pick that might not even touch the player guarding the ball handler. I was at the opener against the Spurs and their bigs are so much better at picking the defender and setting up open looks.
quote:but he has put out many puzzling line ups.
quote:What really concerns me is how bad our defensive efficiency is
quote:I think he does a good job developing players (especially big men) and getting them to play hard, but he's awful in actual game management.
quote:Has anyone mentioned Monty's decision not to call timeout before Gordon's game winning shot? He let them play through instead of calling a TO to set something up, which would have also allowed the defense to get set. Terrible decision...
quote:So what makes you smarter than professional NBA GMs, coaches, and players who all think he is an excellent young coach who can do great things with an actual talented roster?

WASHINGTON – While liberals seethed, President Barack Obama saluted a new spirit of political compromise Friday as he signed into law a huge tax bill extending cuts for the rich — benefits he had steadfastly denounced — along with billions of dollars in help for the middle class and jobless workers.
"It's a good deal for the American people; this is progress and that's what they sent us here to achieve," Obama said as a rare bipartisan assembly of lawmakers looked on.
The package retains Bush-era tax rates for all taxpayers, from the working poor to the wealthiest. It also offers 13 months of extended benefits to the unemployed and attempts to stimulate the economy with a Social Security payroll tax cut for all workers.
At a cost of $858 billion over two years, the deal contains provisions dear to both Democrats and Republicans. It represents the most money that Obama was likely to have been able to dedicate over the next year to a slowly recovering economy, at the same time increasing the federal deficit at a time when the country is growing increasingly anxious about the red ink.
"This is real money that is going to make a real difference in people's lives," the president said.
He conceded, however, that the White House and Congress face a difficult challenge when it comes to controlling the deficit and tackling the nation's debt.
"In some ways this was easier than some of the tougher choices we're going to have to make next year," he said.

After a gun, knife, or OC spray, for my money the best weapon is a stout walking stick. Properly used, they're devastating weapons. Cold Steel markets several good ones, but the best is a genuine Irish blackthorn stick; hickory or ironwood is almost as good. There are videos available that show how to use them--not as you'd expect--and they have some unique advantages: theylll never be banned, you can carry them openly anywhere, they're already in your hand when the action starts, they need no ammo, no sharpening, and they have no moving parts to jam. You can even buy them on eBay...
"Valor needs first strength, then a weapon." -- J. R. R. Tolkien (1892-1973) "Free men have arms; slaves do not." -- William Blackstone (1723-1780)

Fans seem pleased with Joe's new material, but reviews claim he leaves the crowd wanting more. Do you agree?
Joe Jonas is a superstar, but if the critics are to be believed, he shouldn't have left his brothers to hit the road solo!
Joe, 22, has been thrilling the fanbase on his Joe Jonas & Jay Sean Tour, but critics are saying his recent live performances have left much to be desired.
The University of California, Los Angeles Daily Bruin wrote, "Joe Jonas gives an entertaining solo performance but falls short of his Jonas Brothers days."
Of another show, Neon Limelight wrote a backhanded compliment, saying, "Impressing the crowd with his choreographed new moves, Joe came ready to shut the place down, and while he may not have done quite what he intended with his set, he definitely served up an E for effort."
What do you think, HollywoodLifers — has Joe's tour been as good as you've hoped, or do you think he should get the band back together as soon as possible?

It looks like In USA nowadays, younger males like Joe aren´t liked by the critics, America is making a fool of itself in the world actually. jOE jONAS WHO ACTUALLY HAS TALENT AND WRITE GREAT SONGS HAS BAD REVIEWS and a piece of shit like justin bieber is considered a singer??? This world is gonna fall.Or maybe you have to be friend of SWIFTY to have good reviews: Really I can´t wait for JUSTICE to explode.

Way to take the quotes out of context. Post the whole reviews idiots. You'll see that they are quite flattering. Every review says something negative, but Joe's are quite mild in comparison to some.
Of course, if you DID post the whole review, you wouldn't have a (fictional) story…the only kind you post.

STFU and sit down. I saw Joe in Minneapolis he was amazing. His vocals and his performance were on point. Joe was always the only reason people got out of their seats at JB concert. And that night just proved it. I was there with some guys who only wanted to see Jay Sean but gave Joe props at the end of the night. If ya'll remember correctly the critics were very nasty to Nick and his solo concerts as well. They also hated him in Hair Spray, so go figure.

Chapter 12: Repaying Victims The historical role of restitution to crime victims (from Biblical times through colonial) In ancient Babylonian Code of Hammurabi, it was instructed territorial governors to replace lost property of someone who was robbed if the criminal was not captured. In the aftermath of a murder, the governor was to pay the heirs a specific sum in silver from the treasury. In the centuries that followed, restitution by the offender replaced compensation by the state. But during the Middle ages, restitution also faded away. Victims had no avenue of redress except to try to recover losses by suing offenders in civil court. In the 1800s, interest in compensation grew, when prison reform movement in Europe focused attention to the suffering of convicts, and in doing so indirectly called attention to the plight of their victims. In 1972, New Zealand developed a universal compensation program. The results of evaluations of restitution programs Funding is insufficient and outreach is inadequate, compensation plans are failing to live up to their humanitarian commitments. They have low budgets, lack of interest from police, prosecutors, and hospital emergency room personnel is a continuing problem. Several impact evaluations found that the promise of reimbursement would NOT increase the public?s degree of cooperation with police or ratings of the quality of police, prosecutors, or judges. Punitive, compensatory, and pecuniary damages in civil suits Punitive= money extracted to punish wrongdoers and deter others. Compensatory= to repay expenses Pecuniary= to cover lost income Son of Sam or notoriety for profit laws The victims or families of victims, if murdered, will receive the money earned by the offender from notoriety. Laws would take away profits gained by notorious criminals and distribute this money to their victims. Chapter 9: Victims of Violence by Lovers and Family Members Battered-woman syndrome or learned helplessness Battered-woman syndrome= Physical and emotional suffering caused by deliberate, repeated attacks; also, a defense against criminal charges in which the perpetrator argues that her retaliatory violence arose as a result of repeated physical abuse by a partner. Recent statistics on intimate partner homicide Male-on-female violence remains the more serious problem: Many more husbands and boyfriends kill their wives than other way around, regardless of the specific motives. Primary and secondary prevention Primary are intended to head off a resort to physical force by refuting myths, challenging stereotypes, and changing the attitudes held by large #s of potential victimizers and victims, such as high school students. Secondary attempts to teach high-risk couples negotiation and anger management techniques. Chapter 10: Victims of Rapes and Other Sexual Assaults The risk factors for rape Highest at risk for rape are females in their late teens to early 20s, unmarried, living in low-income families, unemployed, black, and residing in large cities Statistics on unfounded complaints of rape Rapes by an intimate or acquaintance, which occur more than once. OR wives raped by husbands. OR Sexually assaulted males (1 in 12 rapes is a male victim) Chapter 4: Violent Crimes: Murders and Robberies The demographic factors that indicate highest risk of murder victimization (p. 71) Men 15-24 years old, minority races, dangerous jobs. The death rates from murder and other causes for the general population and for young people Young people (15-24) are more than twice as likely as the general pop. to be murdered, whereas the general pop. has the most deaths from heart problems. Injury rates, completion rates, and self-protective strategies victims use in robberies 1/3 of robbery victims are injured, 1 in 9 robbery victims needs medical attention; 32% of robberies are unsuccessful; strategies include fleeing, fighting, or otherwise resisting. The demographic factors that indicate highest risk of robbery victimization Hispanics and blacks, men, in early 20s, never married, low income, reside in urban area Crime prevention, crime control, and victimization prevention Crime prevention= environmental design (fences, locks), ?the anticipation, recognition, and appraisal of a crime risk, and the initiation of some action to remove or reduce it?. Crime Control= measures taken in response to acts that have already been committed. Victimization prevention= specific precautions intended to increase the safety of particular persons, in contrast to crime prevention, which is societal in scope. Chapter 8: Children as Victims The proportions of children missing under different circumstances, NISMART 2: Stranger/acquaintance abductions- begin in street setting, force is used to abduct child, taken for sexual purposes. Family abductions- Usually an estranged spouse, the parent without custody abducts child. Runaways and throwaways- 45%- ran away from home or not wanted at home. Benign explanations- 43%- misunderstandings/miscommunications The Stockholm Syndrome: what it is and how commonly it occurs in hostage situations WHAT? Behavior by a hostage that appears to be supportive of the situation of the kidnapper. HOW? This survival strategy may arise from a sense of hopelessness and helplessness, a loss of identity, isolation from the outside world, trauma, and terror. POWERPOINTS 3-7

One nice thing about having a vehicle is that it can provide a fair amount of protection against a lower-level assault. No telling how a given encounter's going to proceed, of course, but retreating temporarily back into the vehicle is certainly something to consider when faced with such an escalating situation in future.
The simple act of putting your "back against the wall" can help ensure people absolutely see you in the right, as the victim. Particularly if it turns out that the perimeter (your vehicle as a barrier) is breached, then you're standing on fairly solid ground if you end up using significant, even lethal, force to withstand the attack.
Of course, in a state with no legal duty to retreat, you're technically not going to be required to do so, but particularly with all the Stand Your Ground crap flying about in the press, it's got people on edge about the whole notion of being the one left standing. Considering all of your options ain't a bad thing.
The way nearly all such laws are written, it's deemed lawful if OTHERS (DA, GJ) deem it to have been reasonable. Communicating one's thought process is only the very first step in justifying one's actions, if lethal force is employed.
That said, I agree that the statutes should absolutely support legitimate defense of life whenever life is reasonably felt threatened.

Broward Sheriff's Office Crime Laboratory: New Times Finds Lots of Missing Drugs and Botched Cases
Kadesha Roberts was camped out at a friend's condo in a cookie-cutter, tile-roofed development off McNab Road when the knock came. The short Jamaican woman with spiked hair opened the door to find a UPS man clutching a large package. After identifying herself, she grabbed it. NASA ICE via wikimedia commons
Then all hell broke loose.
Broward deputies bolted toward her. Roberts dropped the package and tried to squeeze inside, but not fast enough. Cops snatched up the box, discovering bales of marijuana wrapped in green cellophane. Roberts was put in cuffs and the evidence shipped off to the county's crime lab.
That was July 2010, and normally the story would have ended there. Roberts would have been popped for trafficking and the UPS box would have been the prime evidence against her.
But the case wasn't a slam dunk. Several pounds of the marijuana apparently vanished. And it's possible that drugs disappeared in dozens of similar cases. Roberts' bust was only one piece of a scandal that could shake South Florida law enforcement to its core.
Though the broad outlines of the scandal at the Broward crime lab have been made public -- two top staff members have resigned, and an internal affairs investigation is underway -- New Times has learned it is likely more far-reaching than previously thought. An audit expected later this year is likely to show that drugs are missing in many more cases.
After reviewing hundreds of pages of court documents and police reports, the newspaper has found problems in everything from street-level drug busts to large-scale probes of heavy movers. Among them are Roberts' case and several others, including:
• The bust of a dealer with 363 pills that were field-tested as positive for MDMA in 2012, only to come up negative in the lab.
• A $60,000 Fort Lauderdale reverse sting conducted in 2012 in which cocaine was later found to be missing.
• The 2013 seizure, after a SWAT standoff, of marijuana that was listed at a different weight in police reports and lab analysis.
The common factor: All the drugs landed on the desk of forensic chemist Kelli McDonald. She is still employed at the Broward Sheriff's Office but was recently transferred and could not be reached for comment. Her last known annual salary was $85,800 in 2012.
"There seem to be multiple manners in which she has engaged in misconduct," says Gordon Weekes, a chief assistant with the Broward Public Defender's Office. "It creates an issue because it erodes the confidence of the entire criminal justice system."
The Broward lab hired its first chemist to do drug testing in the late 1960s. During the '70s, the county established six laboratories that were funded in part by the state. Today, there are five units -- chemistry, DNA, evidence intake, latent print, and firearms -- and a $4.7 million annual budget. But the workload is considerable for the lab's 37-person staff, especially considering demographics. According to a 2010 presentation, Broward's drug unit has one analyst for every 319,925 county residents. In Palm Beach County, each analyst serves 253,290 residents; in Miami Dade, the ratio is one to 238,717.
There is a serious danger in overworking crime lab staff. Recent history has shown that the more law enforcement relies on science for convictions, the more vulnerable the system becomes to bad acts by the folks in lab coats.
In November 2013, Annie Dookhan, a tech at a Massachusetts State Police drug lab, was sentenced to three to five years in prison for falsifying reports and lying to investigators. According to the Boston Globe, more than 40,000 cases the tech touched between 2003 and 2012 were thrown into doubt by the scandal, and by the time of Dookhan's sentencing, the state had spent $8.5 million reviewing those cases.
The State of Florida is currently reviewing thousands of cases worked by technician Joseph Graves. In February, the former Florida Department of Law Enforcement employee was arrested for allegedly switching out the prescription pain pills he tested at a Pensacola crime laboratory with over-the-counter substitutes. Since he was hired in 2005, Graves had worked more than 2,600 cases for FDLE involving 35 counties across the state.
McDonald was hired at the Broward Sheriff's lab in 2006 after spending three years as a tech for the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office. She had earned a bachelor's degree in forensic science from the University of Central Florida in 2000 and a master's degree in biomedical science from Florida Atlantic University in 2005. In her first five years in Broward, McDonald received positive marks in her reviews and glowing responses from colleagues. She has analyzed drugs in about 5,900 cases from 2006 to this past February, when she was suspended.
But in February 2012, 0.4 grams of crack cocaine -- about the weight of a pencil eraser -- went missing from the lab. The material was part of a case McDonald was working, and the tech was the last person to have signed the material out of the property vault. McDonald denied any knowledge of the missing drugs. Lab staff thoroughly searched her workstation and the vault but couldn't find a trace of the absent evidence.
The case of the missing crack was referred to the Broward Sheriff's Division of Internal Affairs. Investigators couldn't turn up an explanation. As the last person to handle the material, McDonald was found to have failed to meet BSO standards. The internal-affairs case was closed in October 2012; McDonald was given the recommended discipline of "counseling and policy review" -- neither of which she received, according to her own statements in a later deposition.

Waterloo, London
Coordinates: 51°30′05″N 0°06′43″W / 51.5013°N 0.1120°W
Waterloo is a district of Central London, and part of the London Borough of Lambeth. It is situated 1 mile (1.6 km) east of Charing Cross. The area is part of a business improvement district known as Waterloo Quarter, which includes The Cut and the Old Vic and Young Vic theatres, including some sections in the London Borough of Southwark.[1]
The area was marshland towards the northern tip of the ancient parish of Lambeth. It was known as Lambeth Marshe, but was drained in the 18th century and is remembered in the Lower Marsh street name.
Waterloo is connected to the Strand area on the north bank of the River Thames by Waterloo Bridge. The first bridge on the site was opened in 1817 and the current bridge was opened in 1945. The bridge was named to commemorate the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. Waterloo Road also dates from this time, built on land belonging to the Archbishop of Canterbury.[2] The Church of St John the Evangelist, Waterloo Road was constructed from 1822 by the Commissioners for Building New Churches as the population of the parish of Lambeth had significantly increased.[2] After the opening of Waterloo railway station in 1848 the locality around the station and Lower Marsh became known as Waterloo.[3] The boundary of the ecclesiastical parish of St John Waterloo established in 1824 was formed by the River Thames in the north and west, approximated Westminster Bridge Road in the south, and followed the boundary with Southwark in the east.


text: Well, my wife approached me the other day and said she wants to start carrying. I have to admit I wasn't thrilled with going to the gun shop and not be there for a new gun for me. We went to day and she bought a Kahr MK9. I spotted a Kimber Tactical Ultra II and on impulse bought it. I have done no research I just liked how the gun felt in my hand. I am looking for some feedback on this handgun. (Good or Bad) Also, some holster options would be helpful.

Tessa or Tess
So we love Tess, but find it very hard to pair with a middle name. Tessa on the other hand goes with lots of names. So do you give up on the name you love and use it as a nickname or do you use the name you love but when said in full doesn't flow very well? We like Tessa, we just love Tess.

If you love Tess then use it. Not too many people are going to know, or use her middle name a lot.

Am I right that little girl's last name will be Cook? If so, Tessa flows a little better with it than Tess as well. I mean, I would still totally use Tess if it's your strong preference. Tess with that last name is still fine. I think you may want to avoid middles that start with a vowel as they could kind of slide onto Tess? What names are the closest to you liking them? Or is there a family name you can use for its own sake that will help wipe out any dislike you have for the sound?

Inspiring support for The Intrepid Foundation
Intrepid travellers you've done it again! With your generous support and matching donations from Intrepid, The Intrepid Foundation's global support has, with our latest funding round, topped AU$3.4million! Hundreds of children are being educated, health is being restored, wildlife protected and many other wonderful outcomes achieved – all thanks to the generosity of the Intrepid Travel community.
This year's funds distribution has AU$344,396 benefiting 51 fabulous not-for-profit organisations around the globe, many of which are visited during Intrepid tours. Young people with disabilities in Morocco will receive prosthetic limbs and physiotherapy, injured elephants in Thailand will be cared for at a dedicated hospital, highland children vulnerable to malnutrition in Peru will have breakfast served at school and the lives of mums and their newborn babies will be protected at a clinic in Indonesia.
How to be an animal-friendly traveller
"One main factor in the upward trend of animal life has been the power of wandering", said mathematician and philosopher, Alfred North Whitehead.
It certainly adds up to us at Intrepid, that experiencing animals you may have never seen before, in new environments, is part of the very essence of travelling. However, with the amazing opportunity that this presents, comes an obligation to act in a responsible way to best ensure the welfare of the animals.
Get your ticket to freedom
The freedom to travel is something we Intrepid travellers cherish. But for many, the freedom to read this article, to speak or act without restraint, is denied. That's where buying a raffle ticket can help!
For over 50 years, Amnesty International has protected individuals around the world wherever freedom, truth and justice are denied. They shine a light into dark corners, exposing human rights abuses and campaign for human rights to be upheld. In the last year, Amnesty's work has brought freedom to hundreds of vulnerable people and helped to at last achieve an international Arms Trade Treaty.
Sustainability starts with kids
"There are many small non-government organisations which try to make a difference by their humanitarian efforts to help malnourished and disadvantaged children, especially in underdeveloped and developing countries. Yet this work is not considered 'sustainable', THE buzz word when applying for grants or donations", writes Sonia Newhouse who works high in the Peruvian Andes. "But what could be more sustainable than children, for the future of their societies and countries!"
"Sustainability of projects is recognised by most large and small donors as 'the' qualification when receiving grant applications, as they are then considered to be self-sustaining and will therefore only need a one-off donation.
Celebrating a special Mandela Day
This year, following the legacy of Nelson Mandela, or Madiba as we call him, our Intrepid South Africa team celebrated Mandela day by helping out in our local community, trying to do something that actually makes a difference.
Benjamin Disraeli wrote "The youth of a nation are the trustees of prosperity."
How can chilli and honey protect elephants?
Meet Prisca Laurence, beekeeper officer and chilli fence monitor in Minungo, Tanzania. Prisca is working with World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA), an Intrepid Foundation partner, on an ingenious and sustainable project to help local people safeguard their livelihoods, whilst protecting elephants.
In Tanzania, with people encroaching on lands once inhabited only by animals, conflict has arisen due to elephants raiding farms to pillage tasty crops. One large elephant is capable of quickly destroying a whole field, so villagers have been forced to take drastic action, including setting painful snares and in the worst case scenario, hunting and killing rogue elephants. And that is where Prisca comes into the picture, when it was discovered that these giant creatures, with their long and sensitive noses, despise chilli and bees!
I Am A Girl: Aziza's story
Aziza lives in Afghanistan. She is intelligent and loves going to school. As the middle girl in a family with 5 children, her day starts early. Before going to school she has to do domestic work, which includes fetching water, cleaning the floor, feeding the chickens and making the breakfast.
The Taliban killed Aziza's father, so there is added financial pressure on the family. School is almost a respite, where she can learn and excel. Back home from school the chores begin again, but somehow she squeezes in 5 hours study per night so she can achieve her goal of being the best in class and perhaps, one day, the first female President of Afghanistan.

The next major patent battle between Samsung and Apple is set for spring of 2014. The battle will see Apple accuse 22 devices of patent infringement. If Apple gets its way, that will include Samsung's latest Galaxy S4.
The new trial will also bring a fresh verdict, one that could end up biting Samsung right in the apples. Samsung realizes that the $598 million adjusted verdict could disappear, be greatly reduced… or jump far beyond the original $1 billion mark.
Analyst Travis McCourt has put together some rather interesting graphs depicting the sales history of Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy handsets. It's an interesting insight into how the rivalry we all know so well came into being.
Rumor has it that Nokia, the world's second largest phone maker, has started to evaluate alternative suppliers for the components it uses in its phones because it is worried that Samsung is stealing its ideas.
In some respects, Samsung may be bigger than Android, and is often a "go to" handset for many consumers. Samsung, however, is increasingly becoming less an ally of Android and more a potential foe.
According to a recently published Reuters article, Apple's CEO never wanted to take Samsung to court. It was all Steve's idea. Can Cook stop all the bickering then?
What can be more refreshing on a boring grim Wednesday morning than hearing about a report that once again confirms Apple's diamond kingdom is being torn up piece by piece by Android? Nothing, absolutely nothing!
A new Gartner report has shown that Samsung has pulled ahead of Apple in the total amount spent on semiconductor chips in 2012.
As 2012 is over, we've been reflecting on how smartphone manufacturers fared over the past year. Interestingly, ChangeWave has published its quarterly consumer smartphone report, which gives us insight into the demand for Apple and Samsung smartphones in North America.
Everywhere you looked some huge tech company was suing another or purchasing a company for its patents in 2012. While Apple vs. Samsung was the biggest story, it may not prove to be the most important.

Aunt Marias stone-built house was fully restored in 2008 and separated into four independent units.
The Garden apartment is the oldest in the complex and was restored to its original very high ceilings, uncovered stone in the outside and a tile roof. The floors are the traditional Cyprus stone tiles. The balcony overlooks the east section of the garden and enjoys unobstructed views of the mountains.
Comfortable high quality furnishings and appliances and all the amenities of modern living come at no extra cost.
Other apartments in the complex
The three-bedroom unit on the top level will satisfy the most discriminating taste and has the feel of a stand-alone house. It is at ground level at the entrance, and way above the street in the back with picture frame views all around.
The two lower-level one-bedroom suites have entrances from the garden with large private patios and unobstructed views of the mountains.
All units are tastefully furnished, with antique and hand made Cypriot furnishings, have a fully equipped kitchen, AC and central heating for the winter, cable TV and WIFI. Aunt Maria always felt that she had the best spot in town and most people agree
Lefkara (Lefka Ori - White Mountains) sits at a central point in Cyprus, near the half way mark of the highway joining Nicosia and Larnaca to Limassol. Perched in the limestone foothills of the Troodos Mountains at elevations ranging between 450 to 700 m, the villages of Pano Lefkara, Kato Lefkara and Kato Drys are jjust ten Kilometers from the Nicosia-Limassol highway and only 20 km from the blue flag beaches at Governors Beach.
They offer cool, dry weather, unspoiled country-side, and the opportunity to relax in a quiet, beautiful environment, and take short trips to the beach, the pristine woods of Machairas, the kionia mountain park and explore Cyprus. In Lefkara you will miss nothing but the humidity and the traffic lights.
Little churches in the countryside with dirt foot-paths leading to them offer rewarding destinations for an afternoon walk. Among them the chapel of Archangel Michael near Kato Lefkara dating back to the 11th century. A designated nature trail joins Pano Lefkara and Kato Drys via the top of the Sotira hill commanding breathtaking views of the mountains and Villages around all the way to the Bay of Larnaca and the coast of Limassol.
The beautiful village of Lefkara boasts a unique architecture. Untouched by time, the narrow alleys and stone-built houses tell of the good-old times when Lefkara men traveled all over the globe selling needlework (Lefkaritika Kentimata) that the women produced at home. Sitting in groups outside their front doors, bent over small pillows on their laps, the women created exquisite embroideries on linen.
In Lefkara the front door closes only when the owners are away. Open doors let the cool air in and welcome friends and visitors in the courtyard, filled with an abundance of flowers
Charming, beautifully appointed, one bedroom garden apartment in a fully renovated traditional villa in the heart of a picturesque mountain village, central in Cyprus, close to the beach.

Recycled Wool Sweater Beads
By: Rebecca E. Parsons
Use an old wool sweater to create this fantastic recycled craft idea! Recycled Wool Sweater Beads from Rebecca Parsons look great as part of a necklace.
- An old wool sweater
- Scissors
- Fabric glue
- Cotton swabs on a plastic stick (important that they be plastic with a hole through the middle)
- Wooden chopstick
- Embroidery floss
- Clear beading thread
- Gold thread if desired
- Beading needle (sharp)
- Assorted beads
- Bowl for water
To felt, I washed the sweater in hot water and dried it on high in the dryer.
I cut the sleeve off of the sweater. Following the stripe patterns, I cut strips of the felt.
I then cut the strips into 1″ and 1-1/2″ sections.
For the long beads, I lightly applied fabric glue to the inside of the felt piece.
I quickly rolled the 1-1/2″ felt pieces around a inexpensive plastic cotton swab. I do this for 3 reasons: it gives stability to the bead, allows me to have something to run the wire or thread through, and gives me something to hold on to as I later apply small beads to the felt bead.
I secured them with embroidery floss in a coordinating color. I wrapped and tied the embroidery floss around the beads tightly while the glue dries.
I squeezed them tightly to make sure the glue was well integrated in the fibers.
For larger beads, I rolled damp 1″ felt piece around a bamboo chopstick.
I allowed them to dry like this overnight so they wold form the round shape.
For the felt ball beads, I took the trimmings and odd bits and placed them in a bowl of water.
This is the messy fun part: I squeezed a dime size dollop of glue into my palm and put some of the damp (not dripping wet) felt bit in my palm and coated them.
I then rolled my palms together in a circular movement squeezing to compress the fibers and shape them into a ball. You can use more glue if you want. Experiment until you find what works for you. It took me a few minutes to create a well-compressed and round bead. So be patient.
Then I let them dry overnight.
To my great joy, the beads held together through the night. I could now decorate them.
I used clear beading thread to sew the long ends of the large beads from the bamboo chopstick together. I also ran the needle through some seed beads while I was stitching the ends together.
I then wrapped gold thread around the long beads because I thought they needed something to make them shine. I wrapped it around the seed beads randomly. I tied and trimmed the ends of the thread leaving the ends of the thread and floss to add texture.
I also left some of the beads wrapped with floss to make some contrast.

Monkey Business (Part 3: July)

Arizona St.
Tempe, AZ (Sports Network) - Deonte Burton scored a game-high 28 points as he again led the Nevada Wolf Pack to victory, this time in a 69-61 decision against Arizona State in non-conference play at Wells-Fargo Arena.
Burton, who was recently named the Western Athletic Conference Player of the Week, shot 13-of-15 at the free-throw line for the Pack (6-3) as they won their third straight and for the sixth time in seven outings. Dario Hunt registered a double-double with 14 points and a game-high 12 rebounds in the road win.
The Sun Devils (3-5), losers of two of their last three, were paced by Kyle Cain who delivered 14 points and 10 rebounds, while Carrick Felix and Keala King responded with 15 and 14 points, respectively.
Nevada had trouble finding the mark from the field in the first half, sinking just eight total field goals, which left the visitors with a 29-27 deficit at the break.
In the second half the Wolf Pack feasted at the free-throw line (16-of-23), while ASU made good on just 6-of-11 at the charity stripe, which allowed Nevada to grab the lead and hold on for the eight-point win.
Nevada, which made good on 6-of-13 behind the three-point line on the night, outscored the Sun Devils at the free-throw line, 25-11.
