Hacking the Xbox 30
from the setec-astronomy dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
What they're trying to say here is, "Since Sony put out a commercial Linux kit, Linux hackers didn't hack the PS2". I would venture a guess (from experience and Linux/PS2 sales) that Linux hackers did not gravitate toward the XBox because commercial Linux was not available for it, but because it is a cheap x86 box with hard drive and USB ports.
I do however, find the hackers sense of "ethics" quite laughable -- That
You are mistaking the hacker ethic. Think of it this way. Since I bought it, it belongs to me and I can use it anyway I see fit.
I own several things which now serve a totally different purpose from which the manufacturer intended. His intentions are not an issue now that it is no longer his.
I have never seen "the media" use the term "crackers" unless the writer was a hacker, in other words not "the media."Is the media confusing the difference between crackers and hackers again? Or is my understanding of the definitions out of date? (ie hackers = good, crackers = evil hackers)
Apparently, the hackers are more like kidnappers that you have to negotiate with.
So I have it now: Bad Hacker == terrorist, Good Hacker == kidnapper

ST. MARYS — A county organization is offering carbon monoxide detectors and weather alert radios to area seniors.
The Auglaize County Council on Aging (ACCA) is offering carbon monoxide detectors and county weather alert radios to seniors, age 60 and over, free of charge.
"We're keeping them (the carbon monoxide detectors and weather alert radios) for those people in the community that are at age 60 and over," ACCA Executive Director Christina Roby said.
ST. MARYS — A local library is looking to get "showered" with toys this holiday season in hopes of enhancing its toy collection.
The St. Marys Community Public Library is hosting "Shower your Library with Toys" through Jan. 7. Youth Services Coordinator Paula Drummond said the drive will replace two sets of toys.
"Some of the toys will be used for circulation, and some of the toys will be kept in-house for our play area," she said.
Drummond said the library is working with a local toy store for the drive.
ST. MARYS — A local networking group presented its first scholarship during its monthly meeting on Thursday.
Members of the Auglaize/Mercer Women in Business Networking Association gathered at Wayne Street United Methodist Church in St. Marys to announce the recipient of their first-ever Auglaize/Mercer WiB Program for Continuing Education — a grant to provide financial assistance to women whose education has been interrupted and who find it necessary to resume studies because of changing demands in their lives.
WAPAKONETA — With the March primary election field set, only one county official finds herself in a race.
Republican Auglaize County Recorder Christina "Chris" Lambert, who was appointed in September to succeed Ann Billings, is being challenged by Anne Hamilton, a Democrat from New Bremen, according to a news release Wednesday by Auglaize County Elections Board Director Carolyn Campbell.
ST. MARYS — Local students are doing their part to help others this holiday season through an annual community project.
DECA — or Distributive Education Clubs of America — students at Memorial High School are currently holding their Goodfellows drive, where the students put out decorated cans in local businesses to collect money to purchase toys for those in need.
ST. MARYS — The St. Marys Community Public Library Board of Trustees prepared for a new year at its regular meeting Wednesday afternoon.
Board members reviewed a staff wish list for 2012 and discussed the possibilities for several items.
"I meet with the staff at the end of the year and I ask them what their needs are for the coming year," Library Director Sue Pittman said. "Paula, Beth and I got together and added some things based on what we learned at the conference."
NEW BREMEN — The New Bremen Board of Education met Wednesday night to hear an update from Freytag and Associates about a possible layout for the building project in preparation for the community meeting next week.
ST. MARYS — Residents will be able to participate in a seasonal activity, while an ice rink has a temporary home at a local park this month.
The ice skating rink that made its debut at Winterfest in 2010 will be a part of the Festival of Lights in K.C. Geiger Park this month.
"He is still hoping to put it up at K.C. Geiger," St. Marys Optimist Winterfest Chair Virg Bertke said. "It will be back at Memorial Park for Winterfest on the 18th."
ST. MARYS — K.C. Geiger Park will light up this holiday season as the inaugural City of St. Marys Festival of Lights opens this weekend.
The Festival of Lights will run from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. every Friday and Saturday night through Dec. 23. The display was scheduled to open last weekend but was postponed because of weather, and will kick off at 6 p.m. Friday, featuring a slew of light displays throughout K.C. Geiger Park.
ST. MARYS — Area residents can do their part in helping with the cleanup of Grand Lake St. Marys by putting in their own aeration systems.
The recent Battelle Interim Report to the Grand Lake St. Marys Restoration Commission recommended aeration technologies in select sheltered areas, according to a news release. Residents are able to assist with the aeration of the lake waters — 10 percent of the lake water is located in channels on Grand Lake St. Marys — by putting an aeration system in their channel.

Okay, so I posted some of my art - twice. I'm sorry about that! And I want to thank everyone who has commented.
I just scribbled something, because all I can think about today is work. Jen and I have been out of work since November. November. We have $3... Just $3. Luckily we're staying with family, so we have food and our own room and what not. But still, we want employment.
My dream is still working from home. I don't care if I'm an artist (my dream-dream) or a customer service rep. My other dream is for us to have our own business.
Anyway, this little scribble shows how I feel about this situation and this topic is also my way of apologizing for my double post... So again, I'm sorry!

We are pleased to announce that our partner, Richard Halpern, is a recipient of one of the Ontario Bar Association's 2015 Distinguished Service Awards. The presentation will take place in April.
Congratulations, Richard.
By Darcy Merkur
There is absolutely nothing improper with counsel's practice of reviewing draft expert reports, according to the Ontario Court of Appeal in its hotly anticipated January 29th decision in Moore v. Getahun et al (2015) ONCA 55 (OCA).
In fact, the Ontario Court of Appeal in Moore went further to say that draft reports, including notes of consultations between experts and counsel are now subject to a qualified litigation privilege - a privilege that can be disregarded by the Court only in extreme circumstances where the opposing lawyer establishes a factual foundation to alllege improper influence.
Citizens are crying foul after the City of Hamilton posted signs at popular tobogganing spots warning that sledding was banned and violators would be fined up to $5,000. Cash strapped municipalities say they don't want to be grinches, but they just can't afford to expose themselves to potential lawsuits. The Agenda asks if this is creating a liability chill, and if our court system has lost touch with reality.
Despite OSOT's acknowledgement that attendant care can be provided remotely, there has been no authoritative jurisprudence on the subject until the recent decision of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in the case of Shawnoo v. Certas Direct Insurance Company, 2014 ONSC 7014.

I used a circular saw for the first time today...
I know it doesn't sound like a big deal, but it is to me! Thank you GWers for letting me know about Lee Valley drawer insert hardware!
Looks good. Did you have to buy a full sheet of 1/4 wood?
Thanks! :) Before today, the most powerful power tool I'd used was my stick blender. Or maybe my Kitchenaid mixer. DH is so handy I'd never had any cause to use power tools, but I'm trying to pull my weight here. So I sawed a few sticks of wood. You should see what he did today!!! (Pantry shelving system, still unfinished, but I'll post pics when he's done.)
marti8a, I really lucked out. I was looking for "project boards" (described long ago on GW by bob_cville) at Home Depot. The nice guy in the lumber section of the store had never seen what I described, but happened to have a scrap of 1/4" plywood. He ripped it into 17 2.5"x30" strips for me and charged me $0!! So my circular saw skills are thus far limited to 2.5" cuts. :)
Here is a link that might be useful: old drawer insert thread

Favorite Video Friday – Doggie bath time fun
Bath time is always a big event at my house. There are three fluffy dogs, and one not so fluffy dog, who need to get cleaned up. In the past, I would lead them one-by-one into the bathroom to be bathed, but now we have a local doggie daycare that also has a bathing room for dogs.
It is so wonderful to have a raised tub with a sprayer that stretches far enough to get all of your dog. I love that I can leave the towels and loose fur behind and come home with clean doggies.
The only thing I miss is the after bath zoomies. There is nothing more comical than watching Jasper, Cupcake, Daisy and Maggie run around the yard trying to get the presumed stank off their fur. Jasper is a nut. He just goes crazy. Kind of like the dogs in this week's video. :)
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
Wordless Wednesday #232 – Sheltie Beautiful
Puppy mill dogs as the Sad Story Dog
This past week I read a really great piece that was posted on Facebook by 4Paws University. It was a powerful message and one that seemed to resonate with people (it had over 900 shares, 930+ "Likes," and so many comments I had to quit counting. You can read the actual posting here: BONE TO PICK: THE RUSH TO ADOPT THE SAD STORY DOG.)
The post has to do with America's penchant for the "sad story dog." You know the dogs I am talking about, the ones that come from a sad situation, get shared in the media, and generate a mass swelling of people who want to adopt the dog and "save" them. It happens time and time again.
You and I have both seen those individual stories of that one dog who was abused and saved, or the dog who ended up in a serious, life-threatening situation and suddenly needed a home. But the most common situation you and I see is the one where there is a mass rush to adopt a dog after it has been rescued during a puppy mill raid. Stories like these make the local (and sometimes national) news. The pictures and video are usually heart-rending. People follow the story closely. When the dogs are ready to be adopted, there is usually a big media campaign to let people know about them and to encourage them to adopt.
None of this by itself is bad, but what gets missed is that some of the people wanting to "save" the dogs involved in the sad dog story are not always the "right person" for the dog and his/her needs. People who are drawn to a hard-luck story may be motivated by different reasons, and not all of them are motivated by the right reasons.
When foster Maggie and her fellow puppy mill friends were rescued, there was a lot of media attention around the raid and the care of the dogs. The facility that cared for them was flooded with adoption requests. I could not help but wonder the motivations of those who wanted to adopt a puppy mill dog. It wasn't like this facility didn't have dogs available for adoption before the raid, or that they ran out of dogs after the raid. So what motivated the people to adopt when they had not done so before? Was it the hard luck story? Did they see themselves as the hero in that story (rushing in to "save" the dog)? Or, did they want a certain breed that was rescued in the raid? Were they already looking for a dog and this just happened to be the right moment? Or, did they just act on impulse and get a dog with a story?
All too often we are motivated by the sad story dog without knowing a lot about what a commitment it is or whether the dog is a good fit for our family or lifestyle. Too many of these dogs are getting swooped up by emotion and being left behind by reality. Some of Maggie's fellow puppy mill survivors have been re-homed, lost or discarded because the people adopting them did not know what they were getting into. They did not understand that the sad story dog they were getting was one that required work, time, patience and in many cases, another dog, to help them to start to live a normal life.
As adopters, we need to take more time to do our research. It's great that people are excited and want to help by adopting a sad story dog, but we need to understand our motivations for adopting and recognize if it is a good fit. As rescuers, we need to be more diligent about who adopts a sad story dog. Rescuing a dog from a sad situation is not enough. We need to make sure that where they land is the safe landing we want for them too.
Sad story dogs will continue to come along. We just need to be prepared to ask the questions that will ensure it lands in the right home.

Favorite Video Friday – Run like hell
You ever have one of those weeks where you feel like Mercury is in retrograde and nothing you say or do quite comes out right? That was my week – lots of confusion, misunderstandings and missed opportunities.
We all have weeks like that. Don't we?
In times like this, I just want to run like hell and shake loose all the bad and negative stuff. Kind of like the dog in this week's video. If anything can outrun the yuck of a bad week, it is this dog. :)
Wishing you all a lovely weekend. Stay, play and have fun.
Daisy and Jasper – Best Friends Forever
There has always been a special bond between Daisy and Jasper. They connect on a level that I have rarely seen, independent yet attached, brother and sister, mother and son. There is just something unique about it.
When I first brought Jasper and his sister home to foster, I expected Daisy to be confused and maybe a little afraid, but she wasn't. She was curious, and maybe a little intimidated by the 8 month old puppies that had invaded her space, but she never seemed afraid.
Jasper was a strong male who was both the harasser and protector for his little sister, Jasmine. She was so small that sometimes she got bowled over by his roughness, but when she was in need, he would stand by her and protect her. It was pretty clear that he thought of her as "his".
Daisy watched them with curiosity, soaking in everything they did with her eyes. I think she wanted to play with them, but didn't know how. Watching them together taught her a lot about dog behavior.
When Jasmine was adopted, he transferred his role as protector and harasser to Daisy. At the dog park, he would chase her and nip at her heels, so she would run and he could herd her. He taught her how to play tug of war with their toys – something she had never done before. He protected her from an overly playful Great Dane and then spent a great deal of time grooming her after the incident, licking her face and neck with great tenderness.
Daisy acts like his mother. She watches over him and makes a point of finding him and sniffing him all over when he comes home from somewhere. She does the same thing when she has been away a while and comes home to him. She loves to nudge him when he is near so he knows she is there. She is his quiet friend and companion, all of the time.
I have always thought of Daisy and Jasper as inseparable, but when Daisy was in the hospital a few weeks ago, I noticed that Jasper seemed to be able to continue on as if nothing were amiss. I fully expected Jasper to show signs of depression or sadness. He never did, not as far as I can tell anyways. But, maybe I was feeling so worried and sad myself that I missed the subtle changes in his behavior.
What I notice now is how much more energy Daisy has and how much more Jasper is interacting with her. Could it be that he knew something was wrong all along and he changed his behavior to allow for her illness? Did he know she was sick long before I did? Maybe so. And, wouldn't that be just like a close and faithful friend?
What I know today is that the Daisy and Jasper of old are back together again. They are playful and fun and caring with one another. Jasper spends more time grooming Daisy than months past, and he spends more time harassing her too. Daisy seems very happy with these changes. She does not seem tired or irritated with him, but instead, more engaged.
Maybe they are just as close as I always thought they were.
They just knew something was wrong sooner than I did and supported one another through the change.

Hi everyone,
No, I'm not pregnant........but I am nauseous almost every morning. For the most part, it subsides by afternoon. Sometimes it comes and goes. Could this just be another phase in mentalpause? :)
I also have very short, but intense episodes of dizziness. I don't know if its all related......but its definitely no fun!
Are you having allergies, sounds like you have a bit of vertigo. I have had that, but the drs always tell me that my tubes are filled with fluid (behind my ears) I am not sure what those are called. They blamed sinus drainage on the nausea. Who knows what they know. They told me to take a benydral for a couple of days before bed and see if that helps? It did. But it made me sleepy in the morning. So I took it about 8:30 in the evening instead of 10:00
Thanks shotzy,
I was thinking allergies too......but I have absolutely no other symptoms. My eustachian tubes used to stop up, but since I've been using a CPAP machine at night, they have been open and my sinuses feel great.
It sure does sound like some sinus thing though.
Actually, I started getting nauseous about a month ago, when I started using the CPAP machine at night.....which makes me really wonder about that connection......but it sounds like an uncommon side-effect from the CPAP machine.
I'm so tired most of the time, and I'd hate to get even more tired from Benedryl......but I think I'll do what you did and take it earlier in the evening. Thanks!
I may be dumb and stupid, but here goes. I read your other post and I am concerned. You are having heart flip flops. In this post you are mentioning nausea. I just don't like the sound of that at all. I don't mean to be an alarmist but when I had my first heart attack those were my first symptoms. Have you had a Recent echo cardiogram or have they put a heart monitor on you for a 24 hour period to see what is going on with you???? My thought is better safe than sorry. Please don't get mad at me, I just waited too late and now I am sorry that I waited, because I had a major heart attack in 2000.
Hi rthummer,
I'm not mad at you! And you're not dumb and stupid! I really appreciate your concern!
I have about a 10 year history of these funky flip flops, and have had 2 echos (although the last one was about 5-6 years ago). I have also had alot of GI problems.
I am able to do alot of work without the flip flops getting worse (If it were my heart, I would have trouble working hard, having more trouble breathing, etc.). But I do know that women have unusual symptoms with cardiac problems, so I'll definitely keep that in mind!
Thanks so much for your concern!
Hi rthummer, I have had flip flops for 5 or 6 years now I wore a monitor for 1 month! Of course it was like a car it just wouldnt make the noise when I brought it in to the shop! LOL I have had a necular stress test and the Dr.said I had more stamina than some 30 year olds on the treadmill. So Ihave tried to tie it to sugar, caffiene, anxiety and anxiety is the only one that comes close. Since some of us have generalized anxiety and dont know it. I just dont get it, I have even taken "the little purple pill" cuz the dr thought maybe it was reflux. Scary huh? It could be electrical? I appreciate each and every post on the forum. Thank good ness we have each other. I have thought of doing another heart saver ct scan, I had one done about 5 years ago. It is cheaper than it used to be and so easy. Oh and catherinet, my sister is going thru some nausea, she does have heart problems, but also 4 kids 10 grandkids and a pretty useless hubby! So we cant go by her symptoms. I hope you all have a wonderful Memorial Day!
When anyone mentions heart stuff I get in a tizzy. Sorry Catherinet. I just worry. shotzy52, I have had a nuclear stress test also. It says I am doing o.k. now. Heart disease runs in both my husband and my side of family. So I guess I am just apprehensive. Also, it looks like it has been inherited to my children. I quit taking hormones because I was afraid of heart problems and always question if I did the right thing.

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Serena Williams is out of the Australian Open after losing her quarterfinal match 3-6, 7-5, 6-4 to 19-year-old American Sloane Stephens on Wednesday.
Williams appeared to hurt her lower back while attempting to pull up short of the net during the eighth game of the second set. She called for a trainer after the ninth game with the score 5-4 and on serve.
Stephens won the second set when Williams, serving slower than usual, was broken. Williams also had her service broken in the final game of the match.
At 2-1 and on the way to a changeover in the third set, Williams smashed her racket angrily on the court then threw it toward her chair.
Stephens next will play defending champion Victoria Azarenka, who overcame some early jitters to beat Svetlana Kuznetsova 7-5, 6-1 and advance to the semifinals.
After dropping serve in a long fourth game that went to deuce 10 times, Azarenka recovered to dominate the rest of the match against Kuznetsova, a two-time major winner who was floating dangerously in the draw with a No. 75 ranking as she recovers from a knee injury.
Azarenka's American rapper friend, Redfoo, returned from a concert in Malaysia to attend Wednesday's quarterfinal match.
Wearing a red sleeveless T-shirt that read "Keep Calm and Bring Out the Bottles," the name of his next single, Redfoo stood, clapped and yelled, "Come on, Vika!" during the tight first set.
Asked if it helped to have her No. 1 fan wearing a "Keep Calm" logo, Azareka said, "I was looking more at the part that says, 'Bring out the bottles.'"
Of her game, she added, "I'm just glad I could produce my good tennis when it was needed."
In the men's quarterfinals, 17-time major winner Roger Federer was playing No. 7 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in a night match and U.S. Open champion Andy Murray was to meet Jeremy Chardy of France.
Novak Djokovic is already through the semifinals after his 6-1, 4-6, 6-1, 6-4 win over fifth-seeded Tomas Berdych on Tuesday night.
The 2-hour, 31-minute victory took exactly half the time of his five-set, fourth-round win two nights previously against Stanislas Wawrinka.
"It was a great performance. I was hoping to have a shorter match ... just not to go over 5 hours," Djokovic said, in a comparatively subdued mood Tuesday after a considerably more routine victory. "It's always going to be tough against Tomas; he's an established player. He has a big game, big serve. He can compete against anyone on any surface."
In the semifinals, Djokovic will meet No. 4-seeded David Ferrer.
Ferrer survived a quarterfinal battle with fellow Spaniard Nicolas Almagro. Almagro had three chances to serve for the match, but Ferrer broke back each time and went on to win 4-6, 4-6, 7-5, 7-6 (4), 6-2.
Maria Sharapova had a 6-2, 6-2 quarterfinal win over Ekatrina Makarova earlier Tuesday and has conceded only nine games in five matches — a record in Australia.
"To be honest, those are not the stats you want to be known for," Sharapova said.
She'll play Li Na, who reached the semifinals for the third time in four years at Melbourne Park after beating Agnieszka Radwanska 7-5, 6-3.

- 2009 Mar 30
I can smell it now. The smell of fresh cut grass lingers in the air. The smell of popcorn wafts down the aisle. Then the aroma of hot dogs and pretzels float past. Even the smell of the freshly oiled leather brings back fond memories.
Then there are the sounds. The crack of the bat, the smack of the ball into the glove, even the sound of a foot hitting first base, all remind us that spring is finally here.
As a kid, I lived for spring. Winter was just a hiatus, a time of rest before the important stuff got going again. Some kids were counting the days until school was out; I was counting days until baseball season started.
Well, it's that time of the year again. The boys of spring have returned, the scandals of winter are gone, and it's time to "PLAY BALL!" And, I couldn't be happier.
I don't know what this new season will bring. I don't know who the players will be in the future. I don't know what we're going to have to do to turn things around.
But there are some things I do know:
I KNOW that God is sovereign and that things are not beyond His control.
I KNOW that God is all-knowing and that nothing escapes His attention.
I KNOW that God loves His church and that He hasn't forgotten us.
I KNOW that God will be glorified in all things.
I KNOW that God will never let us down.
I KNOW that God is good and His plans for us are, too.
And finally, I KNOW that God wins in the end.
You see, in many ways our spiritual lives are like baseball. Our greatest days are not behind us but in the season ahead. God has "'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,' declares the Lord" (Jeremiah 29:11).
Let's seek God. Let's trust God. Let's give God the glory.

James Ford and Jas Shaw were already part of the experimental-electronic band Simian, but, with shared interest in electronic dance music, they wanted something more. So they left the original group to form the electronic-music duo Simian Mobile Disco. As DJs and producers, Ford and Shaw are also known for their remix work (together and individually) with groups like Arctic Monkeys, Muse and Florence and the Machine. Their first LP, the subtle but energetic Attack Decay Sustain Release, came out in 2007 and was very well received. Simian Mobile Disco have remained busy ever since: Their third album, Unpatterns (stream it below), was released earlier this year, and tomorrow night they bring their dance party to Webster Hall.

»Rengstorff House
Constructed in the 1860s, Rengstorff House is one of the oldest homes in California's Mountain View. The structure is noted for its beautiful Italianate and Victorian architecture. The house belonged to Henry Rengstorff, a German immigrant, whose family occupied it till the 1950s. The City of Mountain View purchased the home in 1979 and, following extensive restoration, the house was opened to the public in 1991 as a museum. It measures 3955 square feet (367.43 square meters) and features 12 spacious rooms with vintage furnishings. This is also an ideal location for weddings, ceremonies and receptions. The weather the can play tricks on you but the beauty of the Victorian home and garden makes everything worth it.
»Museum of American Heritage
Founded in 1990 from the private collection of Frank Livermore, the Museum of American Heritage is housed in the historic Williams House, a 1907 Craftsman-style home right across from scenic Heritage Park. The museum's exhibits display technology and inventions from the 19th and 20th Centuries in an era-appropriate setting. Special exhibits rotate through the gallery several times a year highlighting certain historical artifacts, from toasters to toys. The museum also offers children's summer camps and several special events throughout the year. Another plus: admission is free, though donations are welcome and appreciated. For your tiny tots the Lego Exhibit is worth a watch, there is also a pretty garden at the back of the museum. A visit to Museum of American Heritage will make you ponder over how life used to be 100 years ago.
»New Guinea Sculpture Garden
In 1994, a group of ten artists from the inland Sepik River area in New Guinea spent five months at Stanford carving 40 sculptures of this wonderful garden. The wood and stone sculptures, most of which depict people and animals, highlight traditional New Guinean myths and creation stories while keeping in mind their context within an American university; everyone finds a story they can relate to in these sculptures, because they express the common emotions of humankind. On the third Sunday of each month at 2p, there is a free, docent-led tour.
»Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University
The Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University at Stanford University is a historic art museum incorporating pieces from the original private collection of Leland Stanford himself.

Visitors can also enrich their educated palette and refresh themselves in the charming museum cafe.
»Rodin Sculpture Garden
A part of the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University, Rodin Sculpture Garden makes for an interesting visit. Open from Wednesdays through Sundays, from 11a, this beautiful garden was established in 1985. Originally designed by Robert Mittelstadt, the garden is themed around a similar garden that B. Gerald Cantor Rodin had designed in Paris; unfortunately it suffered heavy damages on account of the earthquake of 1989. Restored to its former glory in 1991 by Thomas Seligman, the garden features gorgeous masterpieces like the Gates of Hell and Burghers of Calais.
»Computer History Museum
The Computer History Museum traces the growth of the information age.

House bill would give land trusts power over private forestlands
The proposed "Forest Legacy Management Flexibility Act" would, according to its supporters, promote conservation of private forestlands by reducing administrative burdens for states. Conservation easements under the federal Forest Legacy Program could be held by accredited land trusts rather than state agencies. CFACT advisor Bonner Cohen says the cost to the public of this bill would be incalculable. Far better than the landowners ignore these land trusts and manage their own property and pass it along to their heirs.

The standard toilet training literature preaches traditional wisdom: Your child will tell you when they are ready, read a few books, expose your child to the bathroom, and just like that, they'll be toilet trained! Children with many special needs, however, have greater success with a more structured and systematic approach to toilet training.
There are some signs to look out for which signal that your child may be ready for toilet training, including:
In typically developing children, these signs may appear between 18-30 months of age, but children with developmental delays may show these signs at a much later stage, or may not show them at all. This should not discourage you from toilet training your child; if by 3 years old your child is not showing these signs, go ahead and begin the process anyway. Beforehand, consult your child's physician to rule out any medical issues that may hinder the process.
Be sure to choose the right time to begin the toilet training process—weekends or stay-at—home vacations when you can be fully committed with no other distractions are some possibilities. A time when your child is sick or being weaned off the pacifier or naptime may not be the best times to introduce a new skill. Organize a meeting with your spouse and all of your child's caregivers, teachers, and therapists to brief them so everyone can follow the same protocol. The key to successful toilet training for your child is consistency. Most important, make sure you are relaxed and confident in your abilities to train your child to use the bathroom independently. If your child senses that you are anxious, chances are he/she will be more resistant and non-compliant. Also, be prepared for changes in your child's behavior or mood when the toilet training process begins. Be extra patient and focus on fun activities during down time.
These are all skills your child will need to be familiar with during the actual toilet training process so give them a head start by preparing them early:
NOTE: if your child uses pictures or sign language to communicate, expose them to the potty symbol/picture (printable images on Google or Do2Learn) or hand sign for "bathroom."
Get thorough instructions on potty training your child with special needsSamantha from the mom blog Have Sippy, Will Travel lets us in on her own secrets to surviving toilet training trauma
Rewarding your child for successful eliminations in the toilet is an essential part of the process, helping him or her learn the correct steps and build confidence. The key is choosing a reinforcing item that your child can have ONLY when they successfully eliminate in the toilet.
Try to choose perishable items (snacks, drinks) and give your child a very small piece or sip so that they are highly motivated to get more. Repetition over time will teach your child the toilet training contingency: If you eliminate in the toilet, you get special treats! Make sure to give the reinforcing item directly after elimination to quickly teach this connection. You can do this by keeping the item in a clear bag in the bathroom cabinet or very close to the bathroom out of the child's reach.
It is also important to pair these treats with social praise ("Great job making pee-pee on the potty!!") because you will eventually be able to fade out the reinforcing item and provide more natural, social praise when your child eliminates on the toilet. Calling your child's favorite family member to boast of the good news may serve as a highly effective reinforcer as well.

SILVERSTONE England (Reuters) - Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen, the 2007 Formula One world champion, said on Thursday he expects to retire when his contract runs out at the end of 2015.
The fan favourite, who won his title with the Italian glamour team in 2007, returned to Maranello this season on a two-year contract.
However, the Finn has struggled to match team mate Fernando Alonso in the eight races so far with only 19 points to the Spaniard's 79 and a best finish of seventh.
"Until my contract is finished and then I will probably stop. That is what I think is going to happen," the 34-year-old said when asked by reporters how long he expected to stay at Ferrari.
Raikkonen took two years out of Formula One to compete without much success in the world rally championship, returning with Lotus in 2012.
"When I feel it's time to finish Formula One, it's time to finish that," he said. "Even doing something else at the same time makes no difference because obviously the decision is about F1 and if it is the right time to stop."
The championship is approaching the halfway point, a stage where speculation about likely driver moves starts to pick up speed.
Raikkonen's results have inevitably focussed attention on the famously taciturn driver while Alonso's future at Ferrari has also been questioned after apparent overtures from his former McLaren boss Ron Dennis.
Jenson Button, the 2009 champion, is out of contract with McLaren at the end of the season - but has said he wants to stay - while Lotus' French driver Romain Grosjean is starting to feature in the rumour mill.

She Review
Top Ten Horror Classics
Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Inc. (WBHE)
and Turner Classic Movies (TCM) are adding three new collections to their TCM Greatest Classic Films: Legends line, which
spotlights Hollywood's greatest legends. Available December 2, the newest
additions are Cary Grant Vol. 2, Taylor & Burton and Bogie & Bacall. Each collection features four classic films
and is affordably priced at $27.92 SRP.
While often outshone by Jekyll and Hyde's strange case, The
Picture of Dorian Gray remains one of the most stirring stories of man's
relationship with his inner demons ever told. In fact, one could argue that
Oscar Wilde's tale is an even more complex creature, presenting the evil within
us not as a separate persona triggered by scientific meddling but as an entity
hiding in plain sight. It shows how sin can decay the soul whilst the flesh
remains unspoiled, how those most afflicted by darkness don't always wear it on
their sleeves. The Picture of Dorian Gray has gripped the interest of
readers ever since its original publication, and although it hasn't been
adapted for film as frequently as you'd think, the premise has received the
big-screen treatment a few times.
The best-known (and, arguably, best overall) version has
to be the one that arrived in 1945, starring Hurd Hatfield as the eponymous
chap and George Sanders as the friend who leads him down a debaucherous path.
In playing up the romance and melodrama of Wilde's story, the movie loses a
certain edge, but that it still results in a compelling tragedy regardless is a
great comfort.
and the Chocolate Factory 10th Anniversary (Blu-ray) - 3/3
Synopsis: What wonders

mysterious...and an adventure as sweet and satisfying as a Wonka

Freddie Highmore,is your Golden
