Ryoichi Sasakawa (笹川 良一 Sasakawa Ryōichi?, May 4, 1899 – July 18, 1995) was a Japanese businessman, politician and fascist[1][2][3] born in Minoh, Osaka. He was imprisoned as a Class A war criminal after World War II but later released without a trial,[4][5][6] kuromaku (political power-broker), and the founder of the Nippon Foundation. While he is widely known throughout Africa and much of the developing world for the wide-ranging philanthropic programs that he established, he is at the same time viewed with hostility by many intellectuals[7][8] for his right wing ideals and ties to Japan's motorboat racing industry and support for the Unification Movement.[9][10][11][12][13][14]
Prewar activity[edit]
In the 1930s, during the Sino-Japanese War, Sasakawa rose to prominence by using wealth gained in rice speculation[15] to build a voluntary flying squad within Japan for the purpose of providing trained pilots in the case of a national emergency.[16] He also built an air defense field, donating it to the army. Once Japan began to coordinate its air power in 1941, Sasakawa dissolved his voluntary flying group and gave all of its facilities and aircraft to the nation.[17] In addition, he used the various mining interests that he had accumulated to support the army by in a more concrete fashion.[18] It has been noted that "... his family records show ... that his mining ventures were not as profitable in wartime as they could have been" because he seems to have been more interested in supporting the war effort than in making a profit.[19]
In addition, the 1930s saw Sasakawa take the helm of the Kokusui Taishu-to, or Patriotic Peoples' Party (PPP).[20] This small organization was one of the many right-wing groups that sprang up in Japan in the lead-up to World War II.[21] It was in this connection that he first met Yoshio Kodama, who was at that time a member.[22] In 1935, Sasakawa and twelve other leading members of the PPP were arrested and held for three years on suspicion of having ordered the blackmail of several leading companies, such as Takashimaya, the Hankyu Railway, and Tokyo Life Insurance.[23] Though he was eventually acquitted, the jail time and the subsequent appeals process took a total of 6 years, leading up the opening year of World War II.[24] In the end, the prosecution itself revealed that the charges against him had been based more on perception of the PPP as "dangerous," than on actual evidence of blackmail.[25]
Sasakawa's trials ended in August 1941.[26] In December that year, World War II broke out in the Pacific, and in April 1942, Sasakawa won a seat in the Japanese parliament, taking one of only 85 out of 466 seats that were captured by non-government-backed candidates.[27] The reason that such candidates were so few was that it was wartime, and those in power were doing all they could to control policy while maintaining a mask of parliamentary democracy.[28] Sasakawa joined the parliament nearly a half year after the war began, as a member of the "opposition."
In parliament, he stood against the government's suppression of the freedom of speech and its pressure for the conformity of all parliamentarians.[29] However, his efforts in this vein were largely unsuccessful, and he spent much of the war outside of parliament, touring Manchuria and China, visiting prisons around the country, and cheering those on the home front.[30] He advocated war extension. During the war he flew a squadron bomber to Rome and met Mussolini.[31]
Sugamo prison[edit]
At the end of the war, Sasakawa entered the occupation-run Sugamo prison. While until a short time before his arrest, there was little possibility of his detainment, much less as a Class A war crimes suspect,[32] from October to November, 1945, he launched a campaign of twenty or so speeches in Osaka, decrying victor's justice and demanding to be taken as a prisoner so that he could help defend Japan in the Tokyo war crimes trials.[33] He was "...motivated by a desire to speak out in defense of the emperor and in the interests of Japan at the Tokyo Trials."[27]
The US summary for his arrest, dated December 4, 1945 read as follows:
Sasakawa should be arrested for the following reasons: first, for leading campaigns instigating aggression, nationalism and hostility against the United States. And second, for his continued vigorous activities in an organization that strongly impedes the development of democracy in Japan.[34]
While in the prison, Sasakawa was able to establish connections with many of the men who had led Japan during the war, and who would go on to reassume these roles after their release. He also came into further contact with Yoshio Kodama, though the exact nature of their prison relationship does not seem to have been as positive as it had been when they were both members of the PPP. (In prison, Kodama pursued a policy of collaborating with his captors, naming names and making questionable statements that put other prisoners at a disadvantage. As part of this policy, he asked that his testimony about Sasakawa be kept secret, and it would appear that Sasakawa never found out about it.[35])
Postwar activity[edit]
On December 23, 1948, Hideki Tōjō and six other class A war criminals were hanged. The next day, all class A suspects who had not been indicted were released (aside from the 7 who were executed, 18 were given very long or life sentences.) Sasakawa and Kodama were among the many who were released. There is much speculation surrounding Sasakawa's release, while some suggest that there was simply not enough evidence to indict him of Class A war crimes,[36] others believe it was due to a lack of resources available to carry out trials of all suspected war criminals.[5] The two men subsequently chose different paths in life, but maintained their friendship until the death of Kodama in 1984.[37]
Sasakawa became deeply involved in the post-war reconstruction, though he never again entered politics, but chose to use his considerable influence to bolster business and political parties. The most effective of his post-war activities was the creation of a gambling industry that is still in existence today. Along with his friends Syngman Rhee, the Korean dictator, and Chiang Kai-shek, the Chinese nationalist leader, he founded the World Anti-Communist League. Among other coups, the league claims to have played a part in the 1966 overthrow of Indonesia's President Sukarno. He stated once: "I am the world's richest fascist."[1][2][3]
Sasakawa is also known for his support of Unification Church founder Sun Myung Moon in Moon's anti-communist activities.[38][39]
Ryoichi Sasakawa helped form the World Union of Karate-do Organizations in 1970, also serving as its president.[40]
Sasakawa died July 18, 1995. He had three sons: Masatada, Takashi and Yohei.[41]
Nippon Foundation[edit]
In 1951 – after extensive bribery of parliamenticians on his behalf[3] – the Japanese Diet passed the Motorboat Racing Law – an invention of Sasakawa's. Under this law, motorboat races are held at 24 locations around the nation for the purpose of both bolstering the local economies and providing the revenue needed to support 1) the reconstruction of Japan's maritime industry, and 2) welfare projects around the country. In later years, international projects were also added. The law established that the distribution of the monies to support projects was to be performed by the Japan Shipbuilding Industry Foundation, a body that eventually came to be known as the Nippon Foundation.[42] Sasakawa became the foundation's chairman. In fact, public and governmental focus on the issue drove Sasakawa to take pains to make the system as clear as possible.[43]
Since motorboat racing is one of only four sports for which gambling is officially allowed in Japan,[44] it became a very large resource for rebuilding the nation's shipbuilding industry, and was largely responsible for Japan's meteoric rise to become one of the world's maritime leaders by the 1960s.[45] The system is regulated by the department of transport, and it can be noted that many of the foundations Sasakawa later created through grants by The Nippon Foundation were led by previous employees of the department of transport. It should be mentioned, however, that the system of farming out former government employees to businesses and foundations has long been common, legal practice in Japan, though one that Sasakawa himself viewed with suspicion.[46]
Under Sasakawa's leadership, The Nippon Foundation made charitable contributions both in Japan and around the world, working with the United Nations on maritime law[47] and with the World Health Organization, donating over $70m to fight leprosy.[48]
The group also founded or funded a number of other organizations, such as the United States-Japan Foundation;[49] The Sasakawa Peace Foundation;[50] the Sasakawa Africa Association, an expansion of Norman Borlaug's Green Revolution to Africa;[51][52][53] and the University of Houston's Sasakawa International Center for Space Architecture (SICSA).[54]

I've seen all the 3 Games to Glory DVDs, but never owned them before. This past week I bought the Glory box set with all three 3 Games to Glory, and they arrived in the mail this morning. I rushed 'em into my office ripped open 3 Games to Glory I... and since I knew I had to get back to work as soon as possible since I'm swamped this week, I figured I'd just skip right to the end of Super Bowl XXVI, then watch the whole thing later tonight with the kids. I figured I could spend a few minutes reliving that amazing game then get back to work. I ended up having to shut the door to my office for 15 minutes so nobody would see the ridiculous tears streaming down my face. Now, I'm a manly man... (stops typing to scratch crotch and spit)... I don't enjoy crying much, especially over something as silly as a football game from four years ago. So I gotta know... how many more times do I have to watch this thing before I can do so with a dry face? I know for a fact the wife will be merciless on me if she catches me crying over a friggin' football DVD after all the s#it I give her over crying at chick-flicks.
I still can't even read just the paragraph about the Patriots coming out of the tunnel en masse in SB36 without getting goosebumps. I'm just awaiting delivery of the same DVD set, and I'm quite sure I'll cry. I'd probably also cry if I watched a DVD of this year's Denver game mind you.
Here you go. Slip them inside the box for this movie. If anyone can't understand tears if you are watching this, you aren't but they don't know that, then they aren't human. That should take care of the problem until you get a grip on yourself.:rofl: I don't tear up but I do have a tremedous feeling of pride and joy whenever I watch them.
I'm not saying I'm so macho that I haven't cried over stupid things before but why would you tell this story to a bunch of strangers on an Internet message board? At first I was kind of disturbed that you bothered to share this with everyone but then I just busted out in laughter to the point where I was actually crying myself. In my opinion, this was the best post ever. Thank you. PS Oh, my advice to help you stop crying would be to turn on the news some night and watch how a teenage girl was kidnapped and murdered by some monster and then maybe you'll stop blubbering over a football game. I love football as much as anyone and can even understand crying right after it happened but four years later in your office? Come on now. Reality is calling. You should try giving it a listen.
Being emotionally tied to the Pats (or any other "escape") does not preclude one from caring about real-world events or from being tied to reality. Who are you to tell our extremely emotional friend when it is acceptable to cry? Immeditaly after is OK, but not 4 years later? How about 2 years later? 1 year? What is your cut-off date? And why are you even on this board if you're so tied to reality? Why aren't you doing something more serious like looking for Osama Bin Laden or Nicole Simpson's murderer?
A) You're not all strangers here, I've got some friends here too. B) You busted out laughing? Then you answered your own question, that's WHY I posted it. (Did you really think I stopped typing to scratch my crotch in the middle of the post?) There's a lot of angst on the board right now, why not offer up a giggle at my own expense. The fact that I still well-up with tears at the sight of that kick at the end of the game... well it makes me laugh at myself. And why should I have all the fun when you all can laugh at me too? Heh. Why would I want to depress myself? I try to avoid negativity (except here, where it's almost unavoidable ) It's just not good for yer brain. I'd rather have tears of joy over something silly than bombard my subconscious with depressing reality. It's not my reality. I moved from the big city to the end of the earth for that specific reason, I was sick of the hate and fear in the big city. We had a murder here last year, it was the first one in almost ten years. I'm a happy boy.
O.J. did it. Next question. Or do you have a story about how you watched game 7 against the Yankees today and had to call in sick for work because you were crying uncontrollably and couldn't drive?
You mean I posted that image of Old Yeller for nothing? I was crying my eyes out just looking at it. He died at the--- I can't go on
Thanks though, the wife would never buy it. That's why she'd give me hell about it, she knows I laugh at things like other people crying over Ol' Yeller.
No, that was game 4. And I'll be sure to consult with you before I decide how to feel about something. You may want to chill out a bit.
Last time I show my sensitive side on this board, I'll tell you that. No more Mr. Nice Guy. Willie gone and I havet o have the image of Old yeller in my head now. This is a sad day.
Oh well, worried about the wife giving me a hard time for nothing. Aparently it takes a while to reset my well-up meter. After dinner popped it in the DVD player with the kids, and got nothin' but a spine shiver when the kick sailed through this time. Musta been because I haven't seen that Super Bowl in a long time before this morning. Still the greatest Super Bowl evah.
Glad you are happy. I can't get poor Old Yeller out of my head. They had to = you know= him at the end.
No worries, I cry everytime I watch them too! I get all goose bumpy when Tommy spikes the ball and Adam comes out on the field in SB36, then I cry harder when Lawyer tosses BB into the air! For SB38, I get goose bumpy when the Carolina player says they left Tom too much time on the clock, I start crying when the kick goes through and Gil is yelling "We're Super Bowl Champions, AGAIN!" The killer for me is SB 39 when BB and his dad get dunked and Tedy grabs BB! I also cry at the ground ball that won the WS for the Sox and when Schilling toasts the team with his champagne bottle! This is why we are fans and why we love these guys so much! This is also the reason it is so heart breaking to see these Super Bowl heroes leave!

Breathing (2012)
Movie Info
The acclaimed directorial debut from veteran Austrian actor Karl Markovics (star of the Academy Award-winning The Counterfeiters), is an eloquent, affecting portrait of an incarcerated teenager (newcomer Thomas Schubert) attempting to win parole by working at a local morgue. Raised from birth in institutions, he is initially impassive and self-sabotaging in his behavior; soon, though, he begins to respect the solemn work of handling the dead, and starts to come to terms with his own youthful … More

LoginCritic Reviews for Breathing
All Critics (21) | Top Critics (6) | Fresh (15) | Rotten (2)
A film of unreconciled impulses, Breathing is by turns vaguely sentimental and cooly detached in a manner that's ultimately more off-putting than it is complementary.
Elegant cinematography by Martin Gschlacht, one of Austria's most sought-after lensers, gives "Breathing" added depth.
"Breathing" stands as a sure-handed look at an individual's slow journey toward realization.
Markovics shows a keen attention to performers that you'd expect from a thespian-turned-director.
Low-key, sombre, and slightly more lively than the coffins.
An affecting, unsentimental film with a strong central performance from Thomas Schubert.
Not exactly life-affirming, but Schubert's performance is so eloquent and Markovics's direction so sure that the film blazes with an extraordinary power.
A provocative debut that captures its subject under glass and is content to observe. It's painful and poetic but a shade too introspective for its own good.
A beautifully judged, small-scale human drama that lingers in the memory long after some of those rowdy, big-budget blockbusters have faded.
Markovics's script circles around the themes of death and life in thoughtful and elegant ways: it is a well-carpentered screenplay which bears every sign of having been a labour of love, worked on fruitfully over many years.
As an actor-turned-director film, Markovics bracing debut is up there with Xavier Beauvois' of Gods and Men.
Markovics flexes his muscles on the other side of the camera with terrific effect. A fine, moving debut for the new writer/director.
Thoughtfully shot by first-time director Karl Markovics, the only warmth comes from the stiffening cadavers.
Poignant story of a nineteen-year-old at a Austrian juvenile detention center who gets a probation job at a morgue and begins inching toward a new life.
Can a film be faulted for being too sympathetic toward its characters, for limning a milieu with extraneous humanism?
There's no superficial flash here, just patient and compassionate storytelling gradually immersing us in this young man's world, as first-timer Schubert's vulnerable adolescent grows up before our very eyes.

With an excellent direction by Markovics, who also wrote the script and was the protagonist of Die F�lscher, this is a moving drama that follows a nuanced, well-constructed character played impressively well by the so far unknown but talented Thomas Schubert.

Rihanna was slightly late for her appearance on the Good Morning America stage this morning to perform "Wait Your Turn." The reason? A good old-fashioned wardrobe malfunction. (Sorry, no nudity in this one.)
"I'm a little too fat right now—the zip busted in the back!" she explained once the song had finished. "They wanted to stitch it up, but I couldn't."
That's what fat looks like? Excuse us while we jump on a treadmill for the remainder of our lives. Watch Rihanna perform "Wait Your Turn" on GMA after the jump.

The MSA provided over $200 billion to be paid to the states over 26 years in recognition of the lives and money lost to tobacco. To ensure that these monies were spent specifically on tobacco control, Ohio established OTPF as the recipient of their funds, and purposely safeguarded them there, outside the auspices of the State Treasury. Most states have spent only a small fraction, if any, of their MSA funds to mitigate the tragic impact of the tobacco epidemic which claims the lives of over 400,000 Americans each year. Now, Ohio is poised to reverse course, joining a growing number of states to deplete these monies for purposes for which they were never intended, squandering precious opportunities to, literally, save lives.
The dispute has been ongoing for the past few weeks. It began when plans were announced to fund an economic stimulus package in part with funds taken from OTPF. OTPF's Board courageously responded by authorizing contracts for $190 million with up to three named organizations in order to assure that the work of tobacco control in Ohio would continue to benefit Ohioans. On April 8, OTPF entered into a contract for this amount with the American Legacy Foundation and provided the state treasurer with instructions to transfer the funds. Later that day, the governor signed into law legislation seeking to liquidate OTPF's endowment. The treasurer did not make the requested payment.
On April 9, OTPF filed a lawsuit asserting that the legislation
liquidating its funds violated Ohio constitutional and other legal

The General Services Administration has issued its first request for information for the huge new telecommunications program that will replace the Networx vehicle.
The RFI covers Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS), which falls into one of six areas the agency is considering for the Network Services 2020 (NS2020) contracting vehicle.
The goal is twofold, according to GSA. The RFI seeks information on certain aspects of the EIS acquisition strategy and solicits comments from industry on the proposed strategy. It was released on April 8, and comments are due by May 8. The agency plans to solicit bids for NS2020 in fiscal 2015.
The RFI is part of GSA's effort to develop a comprehensive framework and acquisition strategy for NS2020, which will become the federal government's strategic sourcing center for network-based and network-enabled services.
GSA's Network Solutions 2020 timeline
Assessing Networx: Are we there yet?
"Understanding telecommunications technology and markets, including regional, national, and worldwide markets, is key to identifying the integrated portfolio of services as part of the NS2020 strategy," the RFI states.
To meet federal agencies' widely varying telecom needs, GSA plans to divide the NS2020 portfolio into Infrastructure Solutions, Satellite, Mobility/Wireless, Advisory Services, Emerging Technology and Services, and Government Shared Services.
EIS is part of the Infrastructure Solutions program area and includes a wide variety of voice and video services, data services, data center services (including cloud), dedicated hosting, managed hosting, managed services, cabling and call center services, among others.
According to the RFI, the goal of the EIS initiative is to allow agencies to buy comprehensive solutions through the EIS ordering process without having to integrate procurement actions across multiple contract vehicles.
Note: This article was updated on April 15 to correct the deadline for RFI comments. The RFI itself had incorrectly listed the date, and is also being corrected.

Reklaw, Texas (Fox 51) — Cherokee County law enforcement is working to determine the identity of a body found Tuesday near Reklaw.
According to the New Summerfield Police Department, on July 24, they began a missing person investigation for Javier Jimenez. He was reported missing by his wife the day before. Jiminez left his house for work in Jacksonville at 7:00 a.m., but he never returned home.
On July 29, a truck was found abandoned on a piece of land in the Reklaw area. Deputies and police officers responded to the scene and found a body in the bed of the vehicle.
Cherokee County Precinct 4 Justice of the Peace Judge Vera Foreman ordered an autopsy to be performed at the Southwestern Institute of Forensic Sciences in Dallas.
On July 30th, New Summerfield Police Department officers traveled to Dallas and attended the autopsy. The officers collected evidence, however, the cause and manner of the death were not reported at the time information was released to the media. The body has not yet been identified.
The Cherokee County Sheriff's Office, the Cherokee County District Attorney's Office and the Texas Rangers are assisting in the investigation.

"Irreducible: Contemporary Short Form Video"
January 19–March 19, 2005
Opening reception: Tuesday, January 18, 7–8:30 p.m.
An international survey featuring video work by artists from over 20 countries. "Irreducible" brings together recent video works that are structured around a single situation, action or individual, often reinterpreting the process-oriented concerns of performance and conceptual art from the 1970s, while exploring an expanded social and psychological landscape. Artists include Mauricio Alejo, Jennifer Allora & Guillermo Calzadilla, Jesper Alvaer, Yael Bartana, Mircea Cantor, Douglas Gordon, Kimsooja, Glenda Leon, Mark Lewis, Mads Lynnerup, Aernout Mik, Will Rogan, Aida Ruilova, Wilhem Sasnal, Song Dong, Fiona Tan, Su-Mei Tse, Gillian Wearing, Wood & Harrison, David Zink Yi and Artur Zmijewski.
Anthony Burdin: New Work
April 7–May 14, 2005
Articulating a complex and hallucinatory California Gothic, Burdin's video installations and drawings explore a kinship between fact and fantasy, between the conventions of pop music and marketing and the obsessive desires of fans. His videos—many of which are made in the 1973 Chevy Nova in which he has lived during much of the past decade—are characterized by a restlessly nomadic aesthetic. Featuring jittery but fluid handheld camera work and the growling voices of Burdin's various alter egos, these videos explore the urban and desert landscapes of Southern California while investigating the interior of the automobile as a charged psychological space.
Capp Street Project 2005: Tariq Alvi
April 7–May 14, 2005
The British-born Indian artist Tariq Alvi's work takes the form of a complex mapping of emotional and psychological landscapes. Recycling and recontextualizing found printed matter (club flyers, restaurant menus, jewelry catalogs, newspaper headlines, classified ads, maps, etc.) into sprawling three-dimensional collage-like works, Alvi's art orients around his self-designated status as an alien—both ethnic and sexual. Alvi's fragile—and often ephemeral—works operate at the threshold of private and public life and seek to reconcile the often contradictory impulses of reality and desire. For his Capp Street Project, Alvi will create a site-specific installation.
Monuments for the USA
April 7–May 14, 2005
Over 100 international artists will devise proposals for political and social monuments appropriate for the people of the United States. Their proposals—which may take the form of drawings, diagrams, maquettes, photo-collages, verbal descriptions, etc.—will be displayed in the gallery. Information and specifications for the proposed monuments will then be published and circulated in hopes that the works will be commissioned or funded. Featured artists will include Jennifer Allora and Guillermo Calzadilla, Jessica Diamond, Sam Durant, Thomas Hirschhorn, Zhang Huan, Ilya and Emilia Kabakov, Ken Lum, Aleksandra Mir, Gary Simmons, Do-Ho Suh, Mark Wallinger, Fred Wilson and many others.

"The original leaker behind the celebrity photos claimed that they accessed the images using the iCloud accounts of various celebrities," Cook reports. "It's unlikely that someone has broken into Apple's iCloud service. Instead the photos most likely emerged due to a type of hacking known as "social engineering." This exploit works by learning which online services your target uses, and then compiling as much data on them as possible before using that data to either spoof access, or to simply use their email address and a guessed password to log in to their account."
"Despite the original leaker claiming to have accessed the trove of photos thanks to an iCloud exploit, the range of devices showcased suggests that another service may have been to blame," Cook reports. "Various naked celebrities are photographed taking selfies with Android devices and webcams. Leaked videos could not have originated from the iCloud photo backup service. The range of devices and media may mean that another backup service like Dropbox or Google Drive could be the originator of the leaked photos, with both services offering automatic backup tools for photos and videos imported from cellphones."
Many more possibilities for how these celebs photos and videos leaked in full article here.
"The most headline-grabbing possibility for the source of the photos – a full-on frontal-assault ground-up hack of Apple's iCloud service – is also the least likely. Large companies like Apple have dedicated in-house security teams who attempt to break into their own systems regularly," Charles Arthur reports for The Guardian. "'A wide scale 'hack' of Apple's iCloud is unlikely. Even the original poster is not claiming that,' noted Rik Ferguson, vice-president of security research at Trend Micro."
"As with the many celebrity hacks (and daily hacks that affect less famous people), the simpler and more likely explanation is the leak of an email and password combination, either through guesswork or "phishing", when users are fooled by authentic-looking sites into entering their login details, which are then used against them," Arthur reports. "Ferguson suggests that the hacker may have used the "forgot password" link on Apple's iCloud system after gathering the celebrities' email addresses – perhaps from the address book of another hacked device. Alternatively, the stars used the same password on multiple services, which were captured through that."
Read more in the full article here.
"On Monday, a Python script emerged on GitHub (which we're not linking to as there is evidence a fix by Apple is not fully rolled out) that appears to have allowed malicious users to 'brute force' a target account's password on Apple's iCloud, thanks to a vulnerability in the Find My iPhone service," Owen Williams reports for The Next Web. "Brute-force attacks consist of using a malicious script to repeatedly guess passwords in an attempt to discover the correct one."
"The vulnerability allegedly discovered in the Find My iPhone service appears to have let attackers use this method to guess passwords repeatedly without any sort of lockout or alert to the target," Williams reports. "Users on Twitter were able to use the tool from GitHub — which was published for two days before being shared to Hacker News — to access their own accounts before it seems Apple patched the hole today. The owner of the tool noticed it was patched at 3:20am PT."
Read more in the full article here.
MacDailyNews Note: The problem is that too many people use one password for multiple services. The hackers guess it right once and than have access to all sorts of things: cloud storage, bank accounts, twitter, email, etc.
Regardless of the origination of these photo and videos, social engineering hacks can be thwarted, at least for iCloud. Use two-step verification for Apple ID to keep your personal information as secure as possible. More info here.
As we've written before: Always use unique passwords and use Apple's Keychain Access and iCloud Keychain to create and manage them. When used properly, it works like a dream.

Dean's Future Scholars (DFS) is an academic outreach program with the goal of increasing the numbers of low-income, first generation students graduating from high school, gaining access to higher education, and entering a career in the field of education. The program is housed in the College of Education at the University of Nevada, Reno. DFS was established in 2000 by Dr. William Sparkman, the Dean of the College of Education from 1998-2010, who brought the program concept from Texas Tech University. Today, Dean Kenneth Coll is committed to supporting the program's mission.
Each year students are identified in sixth grade from selected Title 1 schools throughout the Washoe County School District (WCSD) for participation in DFS. Since its inception in 2000, about 650 students in WCSD have participated in the program. To assist students in graduating from high school and college, DFS provides:

Severe weather looms for Wichita area on Wednesday
Wichita and Sedgwick County face the threat of tornadoes on Wednesday, forecasters warn.
The Storm Prediction Center of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has placed a portion of Kansas, along with parts of Oklahoma and Nebraska, at a moderate risk for severe weather on Wednesday.
Sedgwick County is included in that area.
"I think the risk is there for tornadoes for tomorrow," National Weather Service meteorologist Chris Bowman said. "That would include the Wichita area.
"It's looking like a potentially volatile day."
Authorities evacuated volunteers from the rubble of Greensburg for today because of the threat of severe weather, and Greensburg is included in the moderate-risk area for tomorrow as well.
The tornado that wiped out most of Greensburg on the night of May 4 struck on a moderate-risk day, and Bowman said Wednesday "runs the gamut" of potential severe weather.

As for her own work, she says, "I will be reporting for someone for 2012, reporting or hosting a radio show. This election is going to offer lots of real hybrid reporting opportunities."
For Washington regulars, Haddad's formula for success may offer a glimmer of hope for those nostalgic for the heydays of social Washington, when Graham, Evangeline Bruce or Pamela Harriman used their money and glamour to attract the best and brightest from across the political spectrum for parties that mixed fine food and wine with plenty of political dealmaking and gossip.
Many have bemoaned the current state of social affairs in the nation's capital. In August, George W. Bush's former White house social secretary Lea Berman, wife of top Republican fund-raiser Wayne Berman, recalled the halcyon days of the last century. Back then, Berman lamented in an opinion piece in The Washington Post, all anyone had to do to have a party in Washington was to follow Harry Truman hostess Perle Meste's advice and hang a "lamb chop in the window." Only Berman accidentally called it a pork chop, and also neglected to mention her own hostessing forays.
"I'd like to see what Perle would have to hang in her window now to get a government official to one of her storied dinners — a minor rock star? A major PAC check?" she wrote, never letting on that in June, she hosted a private, unreported luncheon for Jeremy Bernard, President Obama's third White House social secretary and the first man to claim the title. Luncheon guests included Vice Presidential aide Cathy Russell; Buffy Cafritz; Gail Huff, wife of Massachusetts Republican Sen. Scott Brown, and Amy Rule, married to Obama's former Congressional enforcer, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel.
And while social observers fret that the halcyon days of Washington society may never return, they are grateful to anyone who tries to break the city's Big Chill and see Haddad as the town's best bet.
"She's not going to be Evangeline Bruce, that's for sure,'' says Robert Higdon, executive director of the Prince of Wales Foundation. "Tammy is a new media social connector, like Swifty Lazar. He started Hollywood's Oscar party before Vanity Fair took it over, just like Tammy gives the brunch before the White House Correspondents dinner. She knows how to bring people together."
"Tammy is breaking new ground as a modern-day socialite by not adhering to any of the old rules," says comedian Ali Wentworth, wife of "Good Morning America" host George Stephanopoulos and the daughter of the Reagan White House social secretary Mabel "Muffie" Brandon, who made headlines in the recessionary Eighties by lamenting a White House tablecloth crisis.
"She doesn't wear sequin gowns, or clap her hands to have all the plates cleared away at the same time. She's a facilitator bringing people together, but you won't see her writing any books on how to entertain," says Wentworth. "In this day and age, particularly in Washington, she could be the new social paradigm."
Among the hottest party guests for the upcoming fall season, Haddad lists Obama friends Valerie Jarrett and her cousin Ann Jordan, Bill and Bernie Daley and lesser-known Obama pollster Joel Benensen. On the Republican side, her top picks are House Speaker John Boehner and Congressmen Eric Cantor, and Kevin McCarthy as "very sophisticated warriors on the front line of politics." In the Senate, she lists two interesting freshmen Republicans — Marco Rubio of Florida and Brown. "He and his wife [Huff] have charmed the town," she says.
Weighing the presidential chances of Texas Congressman Ron Paul after his second-place finish in the Iowa straw poll, she says, "It remains to be seen if a movement can win by saying 'no' to everything."
Turning to Palin's ever-shrinking presidential window of opportunity, Haddad wonders if midsummer comments slamming Palin made by Ed Rollins, Rep. Michele Bachmann's campaign director, could ever be enough to push the former Republican vice presidential candidate into the race. "There's not a lot of room for a new play for the Tea Party voters," says Haddad. "Still, people were a little startled when Rollins went after Palin. Up until that point, Palin had been one of Bachmann's biggest supporters. And people underestimate the fact that she does have something to say."
As for reports that Fox News president Roger Ailes called Palin "an idiot," Haddad says, "He's denied he said that." She cites Ailes as "one of the best bosses I ever had. And he wrote one of best books about the media. He believes in full engagement with a purpose."
Back in the prime of Larry King's late night call-in show, Haddad also had her favorite guests — Republican Newt Gingrich and Democrat Al Gore.
"I could always call them at the last minute even in early days," she says. "They were always willing to come and fill in. Newt was the first person to talk at night to an empty chamber in Congress because he knew people were listening....Some of the criticism of Newt on his last go round [running for president] is that he's still living in that C-Span scene talking into the empty room. That format made him famous. But when he rolled it out on CBS, it did not go as he expected. That's because today, no one person is driving the agenda anymore.''
The same can be said of the capital's social scene today. And while Haddad's entertaining style may lack the grandeur and reserve of her predecessors, the end goals remain exactly the same.
"We exploit the timeless tradition of bringing people together to talk issues in a casual setting," she says. "For better or for worse, that is how relationships are built."

Ok thanks for the that, I'll shoot an email to this Andre lad.
What off topic spam?
I, for one am grateful for Nomax's little snippets of information.
Take them for what they are - don't read into them what you want to read.
Be grateful for an insider who is able to give us little snippets of what's coming.
Also remember that any information as to performance is to be taken as his opinion, as are all others in these threads.
As always, YMMV. Don't blame Nomax if your opinion is different to his.
Here why of course. Muahahahahahaha!!!
That thread was custom made for you Nomax my man. :)
lol, I just don't understand what the HD-800 fanboys doing here in this thread?
They (we?) are not HD 800 fanboys, just high end headphones enthusiasts. Before HD 800 my every single headphones were from AKG. But I wanted something that will throw on my knees. And this is what HD 800 gave me. And before that I hated Sennheiser with the passion, but overall it doesn't really matter. All I want right now is the best sound for my ears (brain?) and wallet. ;) I doesn't matter if it will came from HiFiMAN, Audio-Technika, Beyerdynanic, Sennheiser, AKG, KOSS or any other company.

Ingredients & Description
While acute (short-term) inflammation is a normal immune system response that the body uses on a regular basis as part of the self-healing process, chronic inflammation is implicated in major illnesses across the spectrum, from cognitive decline to heart disease, diabetes and metabolic disorders.EuroPharma formulated Healthy Feet & Nerves to fight Neuropathy and provide nutritional support for healthy nerve function in the feet, hands and throughout the body. The formula begins by promoting healthy blood sugar metabolism and blood circulation. Healthy Feet & Nerves includes a combination of bioactive B6, B12 and L-methylfolate to support the structures of healthy nerves and help the body metabolize carbohydrates efficiently. It also delivers alpha lipoic acid, BosPure boswellia and highly absorbable chromium chelate, providing nutrient support for activity and comfort.
Benefits include:
The damage done by elevated blood sugar levels Type 2 Diabetes happens slowly over time. Other types of neuropathy can also be insidious. Most current medical interventions address only symptoms and do not repair the damaged blood vessels and nerves that are at the root of neuropathies. But you can beat this problem. Early interventions are quite effective, but even if you have suffered with this problem a long time, this nutrient combo will help you get back on your feet.

Audience Reviews for DC Showcase: Jonah Hex
It's a pity the live action Jonah Hex film isn't worthy of this short. Hex comes in later to the action and the story is a bit thin (at 12 minutes, too), but it encapsulates the character perfectly. Few words, man of action and not a conventional super hero. A bit gruesome, too, and a killer ending. No pun intended.

Telephone-based installation support and customer care. Simple setup. Fax and 800-number support
- Cons Web-based voice-mail quality average
Bottom Line
This veteran VoIP provider delivers satisfactory service, speedy order processing, and competitive pricing.
Vonage has managed to become a household name in the VoIP space over the past year, and the maturity of its service is apparent. It offers solid sound quality and competitive pricing. Overall, though, we felt that the services of some of the newcomers, such as AT&T and Verizon, overmatched this VoIP veteran.
Vonage is the only provider to offer Toll Free Plus, which turns any of your Vonage phone numbers into a toll-free number, though that service costs $4.99 per month for 100 minutes of incoming calls. For international callers, Vonage offers virtual numbers in the United Kingdom and Mexico, letting you avoid toll charges to those countries. It also has enhanced 911 service and 411 directory assistance, things not standard in the other providers' packages.
We like the Web-based interface, though some configuration options are a bit hard to find. We were also a little disappointed by the sound quality of the Web-based voice mail, which lets you play back messages through your desktop PC. The sound was not as clear as on the AT&T service.
Vonage has two hardware options, the Motorola VT1005v and the Linksys RT31P2 broadband routers. Voice quality was slightly better with the Motorola device.
Though Vonage's service, features, and voice quality are more than adequate and we have no hesitation recommending it, we're more impressed with the offerings from AT&T and Verizon.

Two Minnesota grown turkeys get an official send-off at Willmar High School today (MON) before going to Washington to be pardoned by President Barack Obama on Wednesday. They come from a flock of 30 potential presidential turkeys raised and socialized by FFA members in Willmar. The White House tradition dates to 1947. Minnesota is the country's top turkey producer, and the lucky tom comes from the farm of National Turkey Federation Chairman Richard Huisinga, who'll present it to the first family. Four students will also travel to Washington. Minnesota turkeys have starred at White House pardons 11 times, most recently in 2005. Both pardoned birds this year will live out their days at George Washington's Mount Vernon estate.

Foley Estates Vineyard & Winery
This is a showcase property in the Napa mode located along Hwy 246 in the northern part of the appellation. The beautiful tasting room is open daily from 10-5. Owner William (Bill) Foley II, who built Fidelity National title into one of the most successful mortgage-title companies in the world, purchased the Rancho Santa Rosa in 1998 and planted 230 acres to Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Syrah. The winemaker is Kris Curran (formerly Sea Smoke) and the enologist is Colin Murphy (all of whom also produce wine for Lincourt Vineyards in the Santa Ynez Valley which is also owned by William Foley II). The Rancho Santa Rosa Vineyard has 32 different blocks of Pinot Noir. Both composite wines and single clone wines are produced. The large acreage here and the extensive winery resources allow for considerable experimentation which should pay off down the line in the quality of the wines emerging from this winery. Foley also owns Lincourt Winery in Santa Ynez that produces Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, Sebastiani Winery, and has purchased several other wineries in the western United States, Europe and New Zealand (as of 2012, he owns 13 wineries). Foley Wine Co. sells nearly one million cases a year. In December, 2012, Foley will launch the Foley Wine and Food Society, a unique club of restaurants, resorts and wine.

Farmington, Rosemount kids clean up at the state fair
Several Farmington and Rosemount 4-H members had made successful trips to the Minnesota State Fair last month, with several bringing home top prizes.
The first show on Thursday, Aug. 22 was the poultry show. Daniel Berg showed market chickens and received a blue ribbon. At the Minnesota State Fair this year there were 265 4-H poultry exhibited which is an increase from the 254 poultry exhibited in 2012.
