How can I make an Ubuntu USB flash drive installer (or bootable USB), containing the the latest version of Ubuntu?
For completeness, how would I be able to do this on Ubuntu, Windows, OS X or another Linux distro?
How can I make an Ubuntu USB flash drive installer (or bootable USB), containing the the latest version of Ubuntu? For completeness, how would I be able to do this on Ubuntu, Windows, OS X or another Linux distro? |
You need: a flash drive, a PC/Mac, the ISO file for Ubuntu, which can be obtained here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop. Here are the instructions for... |
Ubuntu has a built-in application for creating a bootable Ubuntu live USB for installing Ubuntu called Startup Disk Creator. Search the Dash for Startup Disk Creator and click the Startup Disk Creator icon to open the Make Startup Disk window. The USB flash drive that you use with Startup Disk Creator should be 1GB or larger (2GB or larger starting with Ubuntu 14.04 and onward). Startup Disk Creator will automatically format your USB flash drive to FAT32 and make it bootable. If you have only one USB flash drive plugged in to your computer, Startup Disk Creator will select it automatically. Be very careful to select the USB flash drive in the Make Startup Disk window in order to avoid overwriting the partition which Ubuntu is installed on, which may make Ubuntu unbootable. In the screenshot below you can see how the USB flash drive Device is identified by its model name, the same model name that appears under the Drive heading after Model: in the Disks (disk utility) application. You can also move the Stored in reserved extra space slider back and forth to create some reserved extra space for persistent file storage across reboots. |
Needs: USB Flash drive Then see this: Windows: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows Mac: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-mac-osx Ubuntu: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu |
if you are using WIndows, you can use the free tools to create free Bootable Flash drive or even create Bootable Live Linux Flash drive too. you can learn doing this here http://www.inteligentcomp.com/2012/10/Linux-LiveUSB-creator.html beside this if you are on Linux you can use the free tools on Software center too. |
Use Unetbootin.It works in Ubuntu(from Software Center) and Windows(from Unetbootin site) also.Download the iso of Ubuntu you want, download Unetbootin, make it, enjoy it. |
The way that is worded it sounds like you want to make a program to make a boot-able USB |

Acura Fog Lights
I was in need of a new passenger side mirror on my 2004 Honda Element, seems my son didn't see the large pole he was parking next too. I checked with the local Honda dealer and was flabbergasted by the cost of the part and installation - nearly $400!! Additionally, the dealer didn't have the part in stock and it would be 1-2 weeks until they got one. The mirror didn't look all that difficult to remove and install, so I did some web surfing to find the part elsewhere. Go-part.com came up in my first search. The website was really easy to maneuver through and in a very short time I had found the mirror I needed at a very reasonable cost!! I ordered the part and within 2 days it was delivered to my home. The installation instructions were very easy follow and within 10 minutes I had removed my old mirror and replaced it with my new mirror!! Go-part.com had even suggested I record the installation and submit to them, but I didn't have anyone to hold the camera while I worked. I have recommended this site to many of my friends who need parts for their cars.

Mar. 30, 2015
Op-Ed article by Charles Onyango-Obbo, editor of The Mail and Guardian Africa, examines trend in which growing number of African leaders are successfully altering constitutions in order to extend term limits; observes that issue is not the result of traditional strongman politics, but rather an ingrained economy of patronage that has given corporations, and voters, a vested interest in sustaining leaders who bring prosperity.

Christine C Quinn's decision in 2007 to undo law overturning New York's term limits after earlier refusing to do is perceived flip-flop that continues to haunt her 2013 mayoral candidacy; while many saw about-face as deal that guaranteed Mayor Michael R Bloomberg a third term in exchange for blessing in Quinn's own eventual bid for City Hall, close-in examination reveals that her reversal was an act more of self-preservation than of trading favors (Series: In the Running).

Mobile Working Group
Current Initiatives
Mobile Application Security Testing Initiative
Mobile applications are becoming an integral part of not just modern enterprises but also of human existence and a huge part of this shift is due to the emergence of cloud computing. The Mobile Application Security Testing initiative will aim to create a safer cloud ecosystem for mobile applications by creating systematic approaches to application testing and vetting that helps integrate and introduce quality control and compliance to mobile application development and management.
Mobile Authentication
Understanding the fundamental concepts of authentication in layered mobile computing environments to ensure proper implementation, maintenance, and monitoring of secure mobile devices.
Internet of Things (IoT)
Categorizing common IoT device types, markets, and architectures while associating each category with appropriate cloud security standards, security controls, best practices, and relevant governance.
Application Security
Understanding the limited opportunities to secure apps from secure coding practices, third party security add ons, and testing procedures in app stores.
Introduction to the Mobile Working Group
Mobile computing is experiencing tremendous growth and adoption, while the devices are gaining significant power and dynamic capabilities. Personally owned mobile devices are increasingly being used to access employers' systems and cloud-hosted data - both via browser-based and native mobile applications. Clouds of mobile devices are likely to be common. The CSA Mobile working group will be responsible for providing fundamental research to help secure mobile endpoint computing from a cloud-centric vantage point.
Working Group Scope and Responsibilities
The working group is chartered to research the following areas:
- Securing application stores and other public entities deploying software to mobile devices
- Analysis of mobile security capabilities and features of key mobile operating systems
- Cloud-based management, provisioning, policy, and data management of mobile devices to achieve security objectives
- Guidelines for the mobile device security framework and mobile cloud architectures
- Scalable authentication from mobile devices to multiple, heterogeneous cloud providers
- Best practices for secure mobile application development and securely enabling existing applications on mobile platforms
- Identification of primary risks related to individually owned devices accessing organizational systems (commonly known as BYOD – Bring Your Own Device)
- Solutions for resolving multiple usage roles related to BYOD, e.g. personal and business use of a common device
Sponsors of CSA Mobile Research
The Cloud Security Alliance would like to thank the corporate sponsors that make our research possible. Their continued support enables our working groups to produce the high-quality research products you've come to expect from the Cloud Security Alliance.

C'mon, just 25k people from the USA have to pledge to vote in the upcoming election and we all get the latest version of crossover office for free.
What's there not to like from this deal?
It seems like codeweavers is doing an election-based promo of crossover again:
I'm not from the US, so I can't pledge to vote, but it seems they're already ~70% the way to their target!
C'mon, just 25k people from the USA have to pledge to vote in the upcoming election and we all get the latest version of crossover office for free.
What's there not to like from this deal?
Tried the trail version and wasn't really impressed.
Thought I might be able to get some stuff to work better than normale wine + winetricks (or playonlinux) way but it
did not show any improvements with the programs I use.
Codeweavers has opened this up to everyone! Looks like only about 17k to go...
From http://www.codeweavers.com/flockthevoteqa
Q: Can I pledge, even if I'm not an American?
A: Yes! On September 11, 2012 we opened up pledging to all the people on the planet.
Please vote and spread the word!
Awesome! Let's do this, people! For free crossover goodness!!
Well, bad news. I'm at work and kind of bored, so I started thinking why the bar was so full a month ago when I first saw the promo, and it barely budged at all during September. THEN I had a look at their javascript:
The short story of this is that the current number of pledges is given by e^((pct/100)*ln(100000)) which given the current percentage of 83% gives us about 14125 pledges, nowhere near the target...Code:var logapct = function (max, cur) { return Math.round(100 * Math.log(cur)/Math.log(max)); } var updatePledges = function (num) { var pct = logapct(100000, num); $('.progressbar-inner').animate({'height': pct + '%'}, 1500); }
The thing is because they use logarithm to update their progress bar, they needed only about 1000 pledges to reach 60%, and 3162 pledges to reach 70%....
So the morale of the story is: PLEDGE PLEDGE PLEDGE PLEDGE PLEDGE PLEDGE!

Superman in I-Max 3D....makes my mouth water
Snowballs are stying frozen in hell as we speak, WB/DC actually made a good decision. Screw Nolan; do what's right for the fans. Keep Nolan away from any additional CBMs!
Wiseguy if you are seriously that excited about seeing some guys man bulge wrapped up with spandex in 3D IMAX. Well hey what ever floats your boat.
Personally I am over the 3D, IMAX, SMELLOVISION, YOU ARE REALLY IN THE PICTURE, hype crap.
Focus on making a good movie FIRST. From the trailer you release THAT does not seem the case yet.
God the teaser looked more like a cigarette commercial or something for shaving. Nothing abuot the story, what is going on, the conflict. The only thing we get to see is Superman hauling ass out of the atmosphere which could possibly mean he is a coward in this film. Running like a bitch.
Given the last two efforts by DC have been....lacking, I will wait and see on this. DC I believe is swiftly on track to being obsolete and irrelevant. Put out crappy comic adaptions long enough, no bothers to watch anymore.
Unlike you I'm not fixated on his dick, so whatever floats your boat. And I bet you'll see the movie just so you can keep talking about his bulge
Oh come come now Lazarus, Superman ran like a coward in Superman 2, and we all know that was the best in the series ay?
True tall, true. I just would like a little more synopsis that Clark Kent, homeless indigenous man, as shown in the teaser. Christ so Jonathan Kent raised Clark to be on the road and a hitchhiker. How does one doing that become a journalist? Let alone hired by the Daily Planet. Sorry, so much about this movie makes NO sense so far. Hopefully a full trailer will help. But seriously. If they use that crap about his amazing typing speed, that will be so lame. How about he went to college for journalism for 6 years and has a Masters. THAT is reality and believable today. Anyone else feeling me on this?
And I am passionate because I happen to really love the DC universe, they just translate to film REALLY poorly.
The Villian I would love to see Superman fight would be Vandal Savage. Put him against a genius level intellect who is also an immortal. A REAL immortal. Someone who won't try to beat him in physical combat but by out thinking him. THAT would be awesome. Kinda like Lex Luthor in Lois and Clark. He never had to BEAT Superman, just humilate him. And he always made a positive out of anything.

Women & Gender
Ensuring equity between women and men is the key to unleashing the full potential of communities to transform their lives. Mercy Corps addresses the unmet needs of women and girls in places where they have been marginalized and disempowered, while recognizing that it is vital to involve men and boys in the process of helping women and girls claim their equal place.
Throughout our programs, we consider the needs of both genders and build on the courage and resourcefulness of women to help them improve their families and communities.

A view is nothing more than a collection of data fields from the database. The basic aim here is to narrow the number of data fields from the entire database to a more focused group of select data fields that are related or of particular interest to you.
Views are used in several functions in Stock Investor, including browsing financial data using the View tab on the Stock Notebook Notebook, exporting data to a file, and printing reports.
The default view in Stock Investor is the Standard view and it the view always applied to the Stock Notebook when you first open the program. However, this view contains approximately 255 fields (which is the maximum number of fields that you can have in one view) and can sometimes seem a little unwieldy due to the amount of data is contains.
There are 20 predefined views that come with Stock Investor, each containing data from one of the major data categories in the program—Multiples, Ratios, Valuations, etc. The views that are prebuilt into Stock Investor are designated by an asterisk (*) before the View name.
Users create Views in Stock Investor with the View Editor. There are three ways to access the View Editor: click on the View Editor button on the toolbar, select View Editor from the Tools menu (Tools—View Editor), or simultaneously press the Alt and V keys on the keyboard (Alt + V). Following any of these steps will open the View Editor:
The View Editor is divided into two main parts—the field picker on the left-hand side of the View Editor window and the text window on the right-hand side. The field picker is the standard field picker that is used throughout the program for selecting particular financial fields from the database. You will use this side of the window to find the field or fields that interest you. Then by selecting the Add button in the middle you should notice that the field will move over to the right side of the window. This side of the window shows you all the fields that you wish to include in this view.
The View Editor has several buttons and elements to it, which we explain here:
This area is used to select the name of the view that you wish to edit. The default view that will appear here when opening the View Editor is untitled if you do not presently have a view loaded against a Notebook in the background or the name of the currently loaded view. By clicking the down arrow you are able to drop down a list of available views to select.
This button will allow you to create a new view by opening an untitled view with nothing selected as of yet.
This is an option field that you can use to tag any pertinent information for your own use. This information will not be used or seen anywhere else except inside the View Editor.
By selecting this button you are telling the view editor to include whatever field is presently highlighted into the view. This will cause that field to appear on the right side of the window. You may also add a WHOLE category to the right side of the editor window by highlighting the category name (i.e., company information) and either double-clicking on it or hitting the Add button. This is handy for making a large view which many times is used for exporting data.
This will delete a field that is highlighted on the right side of the window, thereby removing it from the view.
This will delete all the fields that have been selected to be included in the view, thereby placing it back to the beginning of creating a view.
The Save button will cause a save window to appear asking you to give the view a Name (required) and a Description (optional). Once you have done this select the OK button to accept the values or click on Cancel to abort the save operation.
This is especially useful for creating duplicate copies of a view. Using the Save As buttin, you are instructing the program to save the view to a new name and also keep the current view under its orginal name.
Let's say we want to add Company name to our custom view (it is a good idea to add Company name and/or Ticker to a view, as this information is not automatically added to a view). If you are not sure which data category Company name resides in, don't worry; this information is available in the Stock Investor Help System. Access the Help System by selecting Contents and Index from the Help menu at the top of the Stock Investor window (Help—Contents and Index). At the Help Contents window (Figure 2), select the Contents tab and double-click on Field Definitions. To locate the data category for Company name, double-click on Alphabetical Listing of Field Definitions and again on the "C" (for Company name). This will list all of the data fields in Stock Investor that start with the letter "C" in alphabetical order. From here, double-click Company name to bring up its field definition window. The field definition window tells us that the Company name field is in the Company Information data category. To add Company name to the view, locate Company Information in the field picker on the left-hand side of the View Editor window and click on the "+" next to it. This will expand the data category to list all of the data fields that are part of the Company Information data category in alphabetical order. Next, scroll down the list of data fields in the Company Information data category until you find Company name. Add data fields to a view, in this case Company name, by either double-clicking on the data field or by highlighting the data field and using the Add button in the middle of the View Editor. As you add data fields in the view, the field names will appear in the text box on the right-hand side of the View Editor window. In addition, the number of data fields in the view is displayed in the bottom-middle of the View Editor window (the most data fields you can have in a view is 255).
You can keep adding data fields until the view is complete—in our example: Ticker (Company Information data category), PE (Multiples), Price/Book (Multiples), Yield (Multiples), EPS Cont-Growth 5yr (Growth Rates), EPS Growth Est (Earnings Estimates), Market Cap Q1 (Price and Share Statistics), and Relative Strength 52 week (Price and Share Statistics). Note that the order in which you add fields to a view is the same order they will appear on the stock notebook as well as in view reports, and when used to export data. When you are finished creating your view, you can save it by clicking on the Save button on the View Editor. The program will then prompt you to name the view (Fundamental Data, in our example) and provide an optional description (Figure 3). When you are finished, select OK and Stock Investor will save the portfolio. To exit the View Editor, you can click on the "X" on the top right corner of the View Editor window or click on the Close button at the bottom of the View Editor window. Applying a View to the Stock Notebook The Standard view is the default View in Stock Investor and is always the view applied to the Stock Notebook when you first open the program. You can also apply different views to the Stock Notebook. To apply a view, click on the down arrow of the View pull-down menu on the toolbar to reveal the list of views in the program. The views whose names are preceded by an asterisk (*) are those that come with the program. Selecting the Fundamental Data view that we created earlier will display the data fields in the view for those companies that passed the *Zweig, Martin screen as of April 10, 2009, loaded in the stock notebook (Figure 4). Editing Views You can edit any view you have created and save the changes. In order to edit the Fundamental Data view, we need to return to the View Editor following the directions described earlier. Next, click on the arrow of the Name pull-down menu at the top left of the View Editor. Then scroll down the list and select the name of the view you wish to edit, in this case Fundamental Data. If you want to remove Ticker from the Fundamental Data view, click on the gray square found to the left of Ticker in the text box on the right-hand side of the View Editor. This will select Ticker. To remove the selected data field from the view, click on the Delete button in the upper-middle portion of the View Editor window. This will remove Ticker from the view. If you wish to overwrite the original view and save the view that reflects changes you have made, click Save. However, if you wish to keep the edited view as well as the original view, click on Save As. You will then be prompted to name and describe the altered view, at which point this view will be saved and the original view kept intact. Beyond adding or deleting data fields from an existing view, you can also change the order in which the fields appear. To do this, click and hold on the gray box to the left of any data field you wish to re-order until an up/down arrow appears in the box. Then drag it upward or downward until it is positioned where you want it within the list of data fields and release the mouse button. To keep this new order, you need to save the view. Sorting a Stock Notebook by View Fields Within the stock notebook, you are able to sort companies by any of the fields in the applied view (as well as by using the Rank function from the Tools menu). In Stock Investor, the default rank is by company name, ascending order. However, by right-clicking on any of the data column headings in the stock notebook, you can sort the companies by that particular field in ascending (lowest to highest) or descending order. Here, we wish to rank those companies passing the Zweig screen by market cap from largest to smallest (descending order). To do this, locate the Market Cap Q1 column in the stock notebook. Right-click on the Market Cap Q1 column heading and select Rank By Market Cap Q1, Descending (Figure 5). Once Stock Investor has ranked the stock notebook, Marvel Entertainment tops the list with a market cap of $2.23 billion. Generating Reports Using Views Stock Investor contains a myriad of reports to choose from. There are two ways to access the Available Reports menu: click on the Print icon on the toolbar or select Print from the File menu (File—Print). Figure 6 shows the available reports in Stock Investor: company summary reports, comprehensive company reports, view reports, statistical summary reports, and industry (and sector) median reports. Here we will focus on those reports that utilize views—view reports and statistical summary reports. View Reports Just as views allow you to display select data, they can also be used to print only the specific information that interests you. A view report allows users to print company and industry data in a tabular format. Data can be printed either vertically (with company names running across the top of the page) or horizontally (with company names listed down the side of the page). You can print view reports for either the selected company or the entire group of companies in the active stock notebook. Since we have not unloaded the *Zweig, Martin screen we used in prior examples, the passing companies still make up the active set of companies. To print a view report using the Fundamental Data view for these companies, go to the Available Reports menu (Figure 6), select View Report – All Companies in Active Notebook, and then click the Print button at the bottom of the Available Reports window. At the View Report window, you can select the view you wish to print (Fundamental Data) and whether you wish to display across by field or issue (company). Once you are finished, click the Ok button to generate the view report (Figure 7). Statistical Summary Reports Have you ever wondered what the median price-earnings ratio of the S&P 500 is? Or what the average market capitalization (shares outstanding multiplied by current share price) is for the results of a screen? A statistical summary report allows you to calculate this information. Statistical summary reports are similar to view reports in that both are based upon a view containing the data fields you specify. However, while view reports display the field values for each company, statistical summary reports calculate the average, median, high, low and standard deviation values for the generated fields based on the active set of companies in the stock notebook. Again, the active set of companies may be the entire database of companies, the companies in a loaded portfolio, or the results of an applied stock screen. Therefore, you can calculate various statistical data on the results of a screen, a portfolio of companies, or the entire universe of companies in Stock Investor. To print a statistical summary report using the Fundamental Data view for the Zweig passing companies, go to the Available Reports menu and select Statistical Summary Report – Active Notebook. At the View Report window, select the view you wish to print (Fundamental Data) and then click the Ok button to generate the report (Figure 8). Exporting View Data If you are interested in manipulating Stock Investor data outside of the program, you can export fields listed in a view. To begin, you need to make sure that the companies for which you wish to export data are in the stock notebook—the entire database, a portfolio, or the results of a screening filter. In addition, you can sort the data by a given data field—the order in which the companies will be exported. In Stock Investor, the default rank is by company name, ascending order. However, you can use the rank function (select Rank from the Tools menu) to order the companies in another way or use the right-click function described earlier. Next, select Export Data from the file menu. This will open an Export Data dialog box with pull-down menus where you can specify View, Type, and To, which is the location to which you want the data exported (Figure 9). We are exporting the companies passing the *Zweig, Martin screen, ranked in descending order by Market Cap Q1, using the Fundamental Data view. In addition, we are exporting the data in Excel spreadsheet format. However, data can be exported to several file formats, including Excel spreadsheet, Xbase database, and comma-delimited and tab-delimited ASCII text files. Once you are finished, click the Ok button to start the export process. When you export data from Stock Investor, two files are created during the export process. One is the file that contains the exported financial data, while the other is a so-called "key file" with a file name ending in _KEY. The key file contains the headings of the data points that were exported and consists of two columns of data—the short field name and long field name. The short name is limited to 10 characters and is the data field name used internally for Stock Investor and exported with any export file. The long name is the "plain English" name of the data field that is visible when you work with the field within Stock Investor. You can open the key file, copy the field names, transpose them, and paste them over the short names in your exported file for easier identification and analysis.

Surging Hamels looks to halt Giants' roll
Hudson aims to follow up solid start, finish sweep of Phillies
With the Trade Deadline looming a week away and the Phillies out of contention, nearly everyone on Philadelphia's roster is expendable. But if there's one Phillie who is more a part of the future plans than the rest, it is the left-hander taking the mound for them Thursday afternoon.
Cole Hamels will try to steer Philly clear of a four-game sweep as it takes on the Giants at Citizens Bank Park in the series finale. San Francisco is 5-1 on its current roadtrip and has won eight of its last 11 en route to reclaiming the National League West lead over the Dodgers.
Hamels has been one of the most dominant starters in the NL since mid-May. He has pitched at least seven innings 12 times in 14 starts with an ERA of 2.12 since May 11, yet only has a 4-3 record over that span. His 3.71 runs of support per game this season is 16th worst in the NL.
It was looking like more of the same Hamels' last time out, as the Phillies were blanked through six innings by the Braves. But Jimmy Rollins hit a two-run homer in the seventh to give Hamels the win his effort warranted -- he threw seven innings of one-run ball while striking out nine without a walk.
It was his ninth career effort of at least seven innings and at least nine strikeouts without a walk -- and he did it by nearly abandoning his changeup.
"I was able to really commit and really execute pitches," Hamels said. "I didn't even get myself to even throw my changeup as much. I know that's my out pitch, but when you're not even able to go to your best pitch and you're getting them out ahead, the confidence kind of builds from there."
Tim Hudson, meanwhile, will serve as Hamels' counterpart Thursday, and the veteran right-hander is continuing to prove he's still got a lot left in the tank. While the 39-year-old was shaky in his five starts prior to the All-Star break -- he posted an 0-4 record with a 6.07 ERA -- eight days of rest allowed him to regain his form. Hudson held the Marlins to one run in 7 1/3 innings in a win at Marlins Park.
Giants: Belt having trouble shaking concussion
First baseman Brandon Belt's slow recovery from a concussion is beginning to worry the Giants.
Manager Bruce Bochy initially expressed hopes that Belt, who was knocked woozy by a thrown ball during batting practice last Saturday, should have been able to participate in baseball-related activities by now. Instead, head athletic trainer Dave Groeschner often has sent Belt home after he reports to the ballpark.
Belt, 26, is on the seven-day disabled list reserved for concussed players. He's eligible to be reinstated Sunday, but that's unlikely to happen at the current rate.
"It's hanging on a little more than we thought," Bochy said Wednesday of Belt's discomfort. "We have some concern there."
Phillies: Other players to see time over Howard
Ryan Howard is struggling through arguably the worst season of his career, following two injury-riddled seasons, and Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg is ready to look at other options at first base, something unimaginable just a few years ago.
"I know what Ryan Howard can do," Sandberg said Wednesday afternoon at Citizens Bank Park. "I think it's also important to see what other guys can do."
Darin Ruf started at first base against Giants left-hander Madison Bumgarner on Wednesday, and he could be there more often going forward, although Sandberg said that decision will be made daily. Triple-A infielder Maikel Franco could see playing time at first, if he gets healthy and gets called up in September.
Asked if this means he is looking for Howard's replacement at first base, Sandberg said, "No, but I think it's also important to see and gauge other players to see where they're at."
Worth noting:
• Giants second baseman Joe Panik, who rolled his right ankle by stepping on the side of first base in Tuesday night's first inning, remained on day-to-day playing status Wednesday but believed that he'll be ready to play sooner than later.
"Right now, all signs are positive," Panik said.
• The Giants bullpen has allowed just two runs in 16 innings in the first three game of this series and just four earned runs in 39 1/3 innings (0.92 ERA) over the last 13 games.
• The Phillies' Grady Sizemore remains one hit shy of 1,000 for his career.

text: GeographyAn island in the Atlantic about 300 mi (483 km) north of Venezuela, Barbados is only 21 mi long (34 km) and 14 mi across (23 km) at its widest point. It is circled by fine beaches and narrow coastal plains. The highest point is Mount Hillaby (1,105 ft; 337 m) in the north-central area. GovernmentParliamentary democracy. HistoryBarbados is thought to have been originally inhabited by Arawak Indians. By the time Europeans explored the island, however, it was uninhabited. The Portuguese were the first Europeans to set foot on the island, but it was the British who first established a colony there in 1627. Colonists first cultivated tobacco and cotton, but by the 1640s they had switched to sugar, which was enormously profitable. Slaves were brought in from Africa to work sugar plantations, and eventually the population was about 90% black. A slave revolt took place in 1816; slavery was abolished in the British Empire in 1834. Barbados was the administrative headquarters of the Windward Islands until it became a separate colony in 1885. Barbados was a member of the Federation of the West Indies from 1958 to 1962. Britain granted the colony independence on Nov. 30, 1966, and it became a parliamentary democracy within the Commonwealth. Since independence, Barbados has been politically stable. In May 2003, Prime Minister Arthur won a third term. In parliamentary elections in January 2008, the Democratic Labour Party won 20 out of 30 seats. Former junior finance minister David Thompson took over as prime minister.

Tepesch leads Rangers to Wrigley for makeup contest
Cubs hope Feldman can help put the brakes on four-game skid
Facing three different teams in three consecutive days isn't a common scenario in Major League Baseball.
The opposing locker room at Wrigley Field will be ushering players in just as quickly as they usher them out over the next couple days, as the Cubs wrapped up their series with the Reds Sunday and quickly move on to one game with the Rangers -- a makeup from an April 17 postponement. Then the Cardinals come to town the next day.
The Cubs last hosted three teams in three days August 21-23, 1960, when they played a doubleheader vs. the Giants before hosting the Reds a day later and beginning a series against Pittsburgh the following day.
It'll surely test the adaptability of the Cubs, who have lost four in a row -- three in a sweep at the hands of the Reds.
The Cubs have lost nine games in which they have led at some point this season.
"Those are tough losses, and we've had quite a few of them this year," manager Dale Sveum said. "It's no fun for anybody, and the players battle, battle, battle and get those leads, and then all of a sudden, they're gone. I don't care who you are, it ain't no fun."
Against the Rangers on Monday, the Cubs tab Scott Feldman, who spent the first eight years of his Major League career with Texas before joining the Cubs this season.
"I've seen a lot of those guys for a lot of years, and they've seen me for a lot of years, so it's not going to be a big thing of trying to trick everybody," he said. "I'll take some of the stuff I've remembered over the years, and look at video from what they've done recently, because guys make adjustments all the time."
The Rangers entered Sunday leading the Majors with a 3.02 ERA. They held the Red Sox to just one-plus runs on 13-plus hits in a three-game series.
Nick Tepesch will make his sixth start of the season for Texas and first against a National League team. With Colby Lewis and Martin Perez both expected to begin rehab assignments this week, Tepesch, named the fifth starter out of Spring Training, could eventually see his role change. But manager Ron Washington has been impressed with the rookie right-hander, who has a 3.54 ERA.
"He came known as a strike thrower, and that's what he has done. Nothing over-powering. He just can execute, and he has good a makeup.
"He's acting just like a rookie pitcher: ears open, mouth shut, following orders and going to work. That's the type of rookie you like to see. Every now and then you run across one of those kind of guys. Nothing fazes him, and you hope that it stays like that."
Cubs: Garza continuing rehab assignment
The Cubs could soon get their ace back. Matt Garza will make his second rehab start Monday for Triple-A Iowa, and he's scheduled to throw at least three innings. Sidelined with a lat strain in February, Garza will make at least three rehab appearances before returning to Chicago.
Garza was 5-7 with a 3.91 ERA and 96 strikeouts to 32 walks in 103 2/3 innings for the Cubs last season.
Rangers: Without DH, Berkman to get rest
Designated hitter Lance Berkman is likely to get a few days off with the Rangers playing their next few games in National League parks. The 37-year-old had two surgeries on his right knee last season, and it occasionally causes him trouble.
With Mitch Moreland swinging the bat well, hitting his fourth home run of the season Sunday, Washington feels comfortable with Berkman on the bench instead of playing first base.
"I'm the manager, so I have the right to change my mind -- don't put it in stone, but as of right now, he'll just be a pinch-hitter off the bench, and it'll give him an opportunity to catch up," Washington said. "We'll give him a break. It's only three games."
Worth noting
• After catcher A.J. Pierzynski played Sunday's day game after playing in a night game Saturday, backup Geovany Soto is likely to see some game action on the Rangers' road trip, according to Washington.
• Entering Monday, second baseman Ian Kinsler ranks sixth among active players with 28 lead-off home runs in his career. The Rangers are 24-4 when Kinsler starts the game with a home run.
• Alfonso Soriano and Anthony Rizzo, the Cubs third and fourth hitters Sunday, each enter play Monday with a six-game hitting streak. They've combined to hit seven doubles and two homers over that time.

People walk past a roadside propaganda billboard promoting the "military first" policy and a boost to build the country's economy in Pyongyang, North Korea, Sunday, June 16, 2013. North Korea's top governing body on Sunday proposed high-level nuclear and security talks with the United States in an appeal sent just days after calling off talks with rival South Korea.
PYONGYANG, North Korea — After months of threatening to wage a nuclear war, North Korea did an about-face Sunday and issued a surprise proposal to the United States, its No. 1 enemy: Let's talk.
But the invitation from North Korea's National Defense Commission, the powerful governing body led by leader Kim Jong Un, comes with caveats: No preconditions and no demands that Pyongyang give up its prized nuclear assets unless Washington is willing to do the same — ground rules that make it hard for the Americans to accept.
Washington responded by saying that it is open to talks — but only if North Korea first shows it will comply with U.N. Security Council resolutions and live up to its international obligations.
State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the U.S. has seen no evidence that Pyongyang's offer of talks is different from numerous others it's made over the years that have yielded little.
"The key piece here is that they need to take credible steps to move toward concrete denuclearization," she told reporters Monday.
North Korea's call for "senior-level" talks between the Korean War foes signals a shift in policy in Pyongyang after months of acrimony.
Pyongyang ramped up the anti-American rhetoric early this year after its launch of a long-range rocket in December and a nuclear test in February drew tightened U.N. and U.S. sanctions. Posters went up across the North Korean capital calling on citizens to "wipe away the American imperialist aggressors," slogans that hadn't been seen on city streets in years.
The U.S. and ally South Korea countered the provocations and threats by stepping up annual springtime military exercises, which prompted North Korea to warn of a "nuclear war" on the Korean Peninsula.
But as tensions began subsiding in May and June, Pyongyang began making tentative, if unsuccessful, overtures to re-establish dialogue with Seoul and Washington.
Earlier this month, it proposed high-level talks with South Korea — the first in six years. But plans for two days of meetings last week in Seoul dramatically fell apart even before they began amid bickering over who would lead the two delegations.
Meanwhile, the virulent anti-American billboards plastered across the city were taken down. And on Sunday, as scores of people fanned out across Pyongyang to help carry out the latest urban renewal projects in the capital — landscaping and construction — the National Defense Commission issued a statement through state media proposing talks with the U.S. to ease tensions and discuss a peace treaty formally ending the Korean War.
One army officer, a director at the top military academy for North Korean youths, said he read about the proposal for talks in the newspaper.
"If they have talks and they go well, that's good," Jang Chun Hyon said Monday at the Mangyongdae Revolutionary School. "But we in the army will firmly hold onto our rifles and be ready to fight whether the talks are going smoothly or not."
"Denuclearization can only be realized if the U.S. can guarantee that the whole peninsula is denuclearized," he said, repeating what he read in the paper. "The hostile U.S. should forget their anti-republic policies."
North Korea fought against U.S.-led United Nations and South Korean troops during the three-year Korean War in the early 1950s, and Pyongyang does not have diplomatic relations with either government. The Korean Peninsula remains divided by a heavily fortified border.
Reunifying the peninsula was a major goal of North Korea's two late leaders, Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il, and is a legacy inherited by current leader Kim Jong Un. North Korea is expected to draw attention to Korea's division in the weeks leading up to the 60th anniversary in July marking the close of the Korean conflict, which ended in an armistice. A peace treaty has never been signed formally ending the war.
Across Pyongyang, signboards at construction sites are marked with a countdown to July 27, giving laborers a deadline for retiling the roof of the People's Palace of Culture, renovating the Korean War museum, and planting trees and grass meant to beautify the city for the milestone anniversary.
For the nation's leaders, July 27 may well be their deadline for drawing the United States to the negotiating table to discuss a peace treaty.

I agree. I think this is a bs call. Especially since it took forever to draw and finish (ie. no tracing whatsoever). I changed the character's appearance and movements but that apparently isn't enough for parody/appreciation. I'm a little disappointed with the Woot staff on this one.

Re: Peregrination
Okay... so I've been listening to some helpful comments over PM and I'm going to resubmit this... anyone else have any helpful suggestions while I'm working on it? Here's what I'm changing so far: The falcon's wing on the left is overly shaded. I'm making it more sparse. The colors of the falcon are very warm, which pops better on the blue, but isn't as accurate. I'm making them cooler. The thumbnail doesn't give a hint of the blue backshape. I'm going to risk losing detail in the thumbnail by reducing the image so that I can get more of it in. Any other suggestions? Thanks for all your help!

Put it on something that isn't black or brown. Maybe royal blue to match the background swoop and look like sky? Especially with a darker colored bird, I think it might look neat with the swoop as a lighter color?

Women may think they are eating all the right foods to maintain a healthy lifestyle, but there are certain foods that can help lower the risk of the second-leading cause of cancer death among women: breast cancer.
Breast cancer causes more than 40,000 deaths per year and one in eight million women will experience breast cancer during their lifetime, according to the American Cancer Society.
Maybe you've seen women wearing a pink ribbon pin to symbolize their fight breast cancer, know of someone who has the disease or even know of someone who died from it.
Research studies have found cancer-fighting benefits in certain types of food. No food will prevent women from getting breast cancer, but experts say if women eat well and stick to a low-fat, healthy diet, it could lower the risk significantly.
Before you head out to your next grocery store visit, here's a list of breast cancer fighting foods to add to your diet ...
No. 5: Tomatoes
You say tomato, we say tomahto.
No matter which way you say it, tomatoes are an excellent fruit (and vegetable when cooking!) to help reduce the risk of breast cancer. They contain lycopene, an antioxidant that protects cells from damage and kills cells that aren't growing properly.
Lycopene can also reduce the formation of new blood vessels of breast cancer by reducing or blocking tumor growth, according to the American Cancer Society.
Cherry tomatoes are even higher in lycopene because of the skin to flesh ratio. Experts say cooked or processed tomato-based foods also contain the most lycopene because the body absorbs it more easily.
Studies have shown that women who eat tomatoes or tomato products about twice a week reduce their risk by 30 to 50 percent. Tomatoes are also an excellent source of Vitamin C and Vitamin A.
Up next, the green you never wanted to eat as a child ...
No. 4: Broccoli
Mother always said to eat your broccoli at the dinner table ... and mother knows best.
Broccoli is considered a cruciferous vegetable, a vegetable of the cabbage family. Turns out that beta-carotene machine contains sulforaphane, a natural component that controls tumor growths and prevents new tumors from forming. Broccoli sprouts contain even more sulforaphane, up to 20 times more.
Studies have shown that broccoli reduced the risk of breast cancer by 17 percent. Broccoli has also been shown to possibly block the late stages of the breast cancer process, according to a 2008 study out of California-Berkeley.
Broccoli should be eaten two to five times a week steamed or sautéed in olive oil. It also contains Vitamin K, Vitamin A, Vitamin D and fiber. Not too bad for the green you never wanted to eat as a child.
Our next food might as well be called "the brain berry" ...
No. 3: Blueberries
Blueberries are not only sweet and turn your tongue blue, they are a good source of resveratrol (found mostly on the skin of the blueberry), which is known to increase the effects of radiation against breast cancer.
They are also a great source of anthocyanins, which reduce the increase of breast cancer cells. A City of Hope study published in the October 2011 issue of The Journal Of Nutrition found that blueberries may also control tumor growth by 60 to 75 percent.
Blueberries are high in antioxidants and have been shown to work more effectively when drinking milk after protein is consumed an hour or two beforehand.
Dietary experts recommended to eat blueberries three to four times per week. A half a cup of blueberries contains more antioxidants than any other berry. They are also packed with a ton of Vitamin C and can be eaten with cereal, yogurt, in smoothies or even alone.

Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, has the right idea but the wrong strategy.
Brown has introduced a bill intended to safeguard taxpayers from having to bail out more "too big to fail" banks in the future. His method of doing that would add a burden to customers of both the mega-banks and some of their smaller, often less risky, cousins.
One of the costs of doing business at any financial institution is setting aside some assets to cover emergencies. That money cannot be invested effectively, if at all. And that costs bank customers and stockholders money.
Still, banks with more than $500 billion in assets - only a handful of those doing business in the U.S. - would have to set aside more money, if Brown's bill is enacted. Smaller banks also would face larger set-aside requirements, but only at about half the level demanded of the giants.
During the past several years, taxpayers have spent billions of dollars saving big financial institutions from collapse - because federal regulators deemed them "too big to fail." Brown does not believe taxpayers should subsidize risk-taking by the big banks.
He is right, but bank customers should not have to pay more for insurance of the type Brown envisions. Instead, federal regulators should get over their "too big to fail" kick. Refusing to bail out one or two mega-banks would have a salutary effect on their peers. That, not Brown's idea, should be federal policy.
