Apparently 'stub blog' is a technical term. The reason this blog is now stubby is because I have moved- will let you know where when I've unpacked. Thanks so much to those of you who read this. Love Jemma xX

By Per Ake Persson: It´s not official but Nikolay Valuev´s defence of the WBA heavyweight title appears to be on for Zurich in Switzerland December 20 with Evander Holyfield as opponent. As always when Sauerland Event promotes they have the Austrian Federation as supervising body - in this case it´s a must as the Swiss Federation has an age limit for 35 for professional boxers and Evander is 46. Former EBU middle champ Erland Betare returns after six years out November 15 in Chateauneuf-sur-Loir and face Tarek Khaidouri. The 36-year old Betare held the EBU belt 99-00 and retired in 2002 at 37-7-2.Headlining the bill is jr welter Jean Nicolas Weigel, who is in against Thai Dech Bankluaygym in a fight for theIBF Youth title. According to a press release from Sauerland Event Alexander Povetkin stays in position as mandatory challenger for IBF heavyweight king Wladimir Klitschko - but the IBF also regard Klitschko-Rahman December 13 in Mannheim as a mandatory defence by the champion which will give Wladimir another nine months more before being forced to take on Povetkin. WIBF and WBA queen Ann Sophie Mathis defends her titles against Belinda Lacurente November 22 in Nouzonville. In the chief support Amar Mancer and Nadjib Mohammedi square off in a national championship bout at cruiser. Italian welter Daniele Petrucci have vacated the EU title and will fight Hungarian veteran Laszlo Komjathi November 14 in Rome: Petrucci will then challenge WBF Int´l titleholder Domingos Nascimento Monteiro December 13 in Rome. WBA lightfly ruler Brahim Asloum isn´t likely to return until March or April of last year. Asloum pulled out of planned defence earlier this year due to contractual problems with the network Canal+. There have been some talks of a defence in Algeria where Brahim has his roots but nothing is set. German tabloid Bild Zeitung have outlined the difficulties in making the Felix Sturm vs Arthur Abraham fight. Bild feels the purses will go up to 3 million EUR for each but as the fight is a strictly German affair it will be difficult for the networks - ARD and ZDF - to finance it. Arena Box Promotion have switched their November 18 event from Istanbul to Cuxhaven after headliner Selcuk Aydin suffered an injury. Aydin was to have defended the WBC Int´l title against Said Ouali. The show will now be topped by heavies Steffen Kretschmann and Konstantin Airich. Kretschmann face hardpunching but fragile compatriot Marcel Zeller while Airich face veteran Alexander Jakob. In a supporting bout middleweight Mahir Oral will again fight Alexander Sipos and not Kofi Jantuah as was planned. Herbie Hide - in line for a WBC eliminator at cruiser - is also on the bill. EuroSport televise the event throughout Europe. Former WBA supermiddle challenger Dmitri Sartison returns after the loss to Mikkel Kessler November 15 in Duesseldorf on the undercard to Dimitrenko vs Krasniqi. Sartison is in against Brazilian Edison Francisco Guedes. Gusmyl Perdomo, a possible future challenger for Kessler, keep busy with an eight-rounder against decent Frenchman Laurent Goury.

NWAR: Trench Warfare
Detective Nwar gets his hands dirty for a political campaign.
4.44 / 5.00 3,075 Views2005/8/23
Sorry, NG guys/girls I had to remove this movie for a while.
I replaced movie file with new one.
I thank all of you who have enjoyed [Hot Fish- Same but different...] until now.
Hi, I'm amalloc of SamBakZa.
This one is not funny, and may be hard to understand to who don't know about Korea.
But I think the message is very simple. I hope you'll be able to enjoy this.
The title is "Hot Fish - Same but different..."
Awww That's just as cute as your last two films! you do very good work! =^^= I just love your bunny girl and cat boy couple! ^^
Deep stuff
I've seen There she is!!! and step 2. After seeing this, I am absolutely enthralled and impressed by your work. While your other flashes are humorous and VERY entertaining. This one was deep and inspiring. Very artistic. Quite beutiful at that. I think I get the point of it. That every individual is special in some way. Very beutiful message. From what I can tell, you must base some of your work off of personal experience. That is very special in an artist. Not to mention how you seem to use absolutely fantastic music and sync your movies to perfect precision with them. I also loved the fact that you used some familiar characters from your There she is!!! series. You have concontestantly made it to my favorite author list. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for your future works.
Your a God
The story is soo well planned.. the animation is near perfection and your style is very unique. dont giv up!
You're work is phenomenal
I'm going to be honest, didn't really understand that. Think I might have gotten the main point, but being an ignorant American, can't be sure. But that doesn't mean I can't recognize quality work, and this is of the highest quality. Now I want to know what's going on so I can understand, and in my opinion that's the best kind of art. Art that inspires someone to learn more. Please, keep the animations coming. I've now seen all of your work, and can't wait to see more.
Just watched "There she is!!!" and I found it more enjoyable. Though this one made me all emotional. Almost shed a tear or two.
Maybe I didn't get every bit of it, but watching it a second time and reading some previous reviews, I think I got a better idea of it.
Now I have a real dilemma is it 9 or 10... blah 10 it is.

It's only 9AM and I've already braved the snowstorm outside for the sake of our laundry. Ok, it's not really snowing, and I didn't actually have to be in any of it. But still!
We're listening to the Harry Potter soundtrack (so John can study, except right now he is cleaning the bathroom. What a great husband!) There was a guy (one of the head maintenance workers) at work dressed as harry potter yesterday. He had a wig and everything. I thought of Rachel. I thought of Rachel again because half of my girls dressed as some sort of cute bug or fairy princess or some other winged entity.

Nice pellets.
April 20, 2014
At first, was disappointed with accuracy results from these pellets. 2 to 3 inch groups at 30 yards. Decided to try seating pellets against rifling in barrel, and groups shrank to 3/4 inch at 30 yards. I don't know why such a difference, must just be my particular rifle. With a little more practice, was able get dime sized groups nearly every time at 25 yards. I haven't used these pellets for hunting yet, but should do fine out to 30 yards or so.
Pros:Very consistent quality from pellet to pellet. No deformed skirts or rough edges. Nicely finished.Cons:A bit pricey, but what quality pellet isn't? Accuracy results may depend largely on your particular set up- had to seat pellets in my rifle to obtain best results. |

Finally a safe lead pellet
January 24, 2014
I've been wanting to use lead free pellets for my spinger, as I shoot in the basement during the winter, but most alloy pellets are too light ( less than 7 grains). The problem is that super light pellets don't offer sufficient resistance and can harm a spring gun. This pellet is not lead free, but the lead is contained by a coating of copper. This prevents lead dust from exiting the muzzle and ending up on the floor. The copper coating maintains its integrity after hitting soft targets (duct seal, magazines, ballistic cloth), so the lead is not expose after impact. I don't yet know how the copper would hold up against a harder surface, but I don't use those type targets in the house anyway. At 8.8 grains, these are fine in any spring gun and I've found them wonderfully accurate.
Pros:Safe for shooting indoors and safe for spring guns. Very accurate in the guns I've tried. No problem with lead as the copper seals it in.Cons:None that I can think of. |

Songs We Like to Sing

Bridal Chorus From Lohengrin
Richard Wagner
Faithful and true, we lead ye forth
Where love triumphant shall crown ye with joy!
Star of renown, flow'r of the earth,
Blest be ye both far from all life's annoy.
Champion victorious, go thou before!
Maid bright and glorious, go thou before!
Mirth's noisy revel ye have forsaken,
Tender delights for you now awaken!
Fragrant abode enshrine ye in bliss,
Splendor and state in joy ye dismiss.

Google revamped its Website Optimizer product (and renamed it to Google Analytics Content Experiments) several weeks ago but is now rolling out several new and noteworthy features to its platform. The site testing feature within Google Analytics now includes support for relative URLs (which provides some flexibility when defining the location of variations), and offers testers the ability to copy experiments (so they can run additional experiments immediately after the original finishes). Google has also made several improvements to the experiments report, adding familiar analytics report capabilities including site usage, goal set, and ecommerce tabs, as well as the option to choose which variations should be plotted in the report graph.

The next big accessory trend? Maybe. Maybe not. But one thing I know is that I like it. And it seems that others agree. I've had these mirrored sunglasses on my mind for weeks and with a plethora of inspiration from my favorite bloggers and all over Pinterest, I knew I was going to have to give them a try. I settled on this pair and have been obsessed with them since. With a hint of blue, they have a subtle mirrored look which I love. What do you think? Is this a trend you are willing to try?

Historically, America has never invaded a country that has McDonalds - it's a fact - US Marine quoted on BBC 4
HACKTIVIST COLLECTIVE Anonymous has attacked the FBI affiliate Infragard for the second time, this time taking over and defacing the web site of its Dayton, Ohio chapter.
#FFF [LAST HACK] FBI-INFRAGARD ROOTED AGAIN. ONE MORE TIME. mirror: zone-h.org/mirror/id/1710… #Anonymous #AntiSec #LulzSec #OWS
— AnonymousIRC (@AnonymousIRC) February 24, 2012
The hackers took over the web site, changing it totally and replacing its content with a Youtube video of rapper Coolio performing Gangsta's Paradise and a message of defiance.
The attack is part of the regular Friday releases from the group. "Greetings Pirates! Another #FuckFBIFriday is here and once again we emerge from the hacker underground to wreak havoc upon the 1%'s institutions of repression," says the message that introduces the hacking logs.
"Today we targeted the Dayton Ohio chapter of InfraGard, the sinister alliance between law enforcement, corporations, and white hat wannabees."
The message includes mention of the draconian trade agreement ACTA and suggests that while that exists the attacks will never stop.
"We broke into their webserver, perused their assorted presentation materials, and finally deleted everything and vandalized their website so we can boost our zone-h rankings," it says.
"You think your 'advanced commercial malware' research and your 'digital forensics first response' powerpoints can really withstand the hurricane of hellfire and 0days we got planned for yall?! Fellow hackers, crackers, anarchists and pirates, now is the hour to rise up and make war upon all corporate and government systems, driving them off our internet."
Although Anonymous has a history at attacking organisations on a Friday, this is perhaps the first attack to come out of its more formal commitment to this day of the week. µ

08231 Abstracts Collection -- Virtual Realities
Document 1.pdf (240 KB)
From 1st to 6th June 2008, the Dagstuhl Seminar 08231 ``Virtual Realities'' was held in the International Conference and Research Center (IBFI),
Schloss Dagstuhl.
Virtual Reality (VR) is a multidisciplinary area of research aimed at
interactive human-computer mediated simulations of artificial environments.
Typical applications include simulation, training, scientific visualization,
and entertainment. An important aspect of VR-based systems is the
stimulation of the human senses -- typically sight, sound, and touch -- such that a user feels a sense of presence (or immersion) in the virtual environment.
Different applications require different levels of presence, with
corresponding levels of realism, sensory immersion, and spatiotemporal
interactive fidelity.
During the seminar, several participants presented their current
research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of
the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of
seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper.
Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available.BibTeX - Entry

I was at the home opener in 08 when we played Houston and got trounced. This was the game where Smitty had that meaningless, ridiculous touchdown spinning and breaking tackles. This team still needs that.

Steve Smith will be remembered by every football fan--not just Panthers fan--as the fierce competitor that he always was. Steve put the electric in Carolina's electric blue. He never gave up, never said die, and loved to be doubted if for no other reason than to prove you wrong. I could say he gave his all in every play of every game (practice, too), but feel that I'd be selling him short. At his best there was no one better, at his worst he was still better than most.
This sounds way more like a eulogy than I intended. The guy's not dead, simply another victim of the ruthless business that is professional sports.

for the record, i think he's hall of fame material
Posted 11 March 2014 - 04:28 AM
Ask me in another year. For right now, all I'm going to remember is Smitty being treated with something bordering on blasphemy at worst and akin to near apathy at best before he was summarily advised that we don't want or need his services any longer.
Is it politically correct or practical from a what-is-best-for-the-franchise sense? Right now, I don't give a poo.

Best Demeter Edwards Poems
Looking back at a narrow past A disastrous place with no new beginning or fantastic ending, Cast into a place of darkness and shadow, with demonic persons, Some laughed, some giggled in mockery, while others keep pretending, Tormented for months, Vision searching for a new place to enter, Mine pleading in innocence to escape Agony with distraught an pain combine, Non-stop, Until one special day it came to an end, A Fighting battle deserving freedom and victory No more sorrow and misery, a wicked place left behind in mystery.

Desktops and Notebooks: Intel's Ivy Bridge Chips Highlight Tri-Gate Transistor Architecture
Intel executives have finally launched the first of the company's next-generation Ivy Bridge processors, a series of quad-core offerings that are aimed at high-end desktop systems. More versions, including chips for mobile devices, are expected to hit the market soon as Intel pushes an aggressive ramp schedule for the 22-nanometer processors. The processors are expected to bring better performance and significantly improved graphics capabilities over the company's current Sandy Bridge offerings. In addition, power consumption will be cut in half in some instances, thanks in large part to the introduction of Intel's 3D Tri-Gate transistor technology. The Ivy Bridge architecture is a significant step for Intel, giving it a technology that it can use to push its way into the booming mobile computing space currently dominated by chips designed by ARM Holdings. Intel executives also expect the processors to fuel adoption of Ultrabooks. CEO Paul Otellini has said there are more than 100 designs in the pipeline that will begin rolling out this spring. PC makers already are jumping on board. For example, Hewlett-Packard on April 23 announced six desktops that will be powered by the 3rd-Generation Core processors. Others, including Asus and Lenovo, also are supporting Ivy Bridge chips. (Images courtesy of Intel.)

Is Microsoft Pre-leaking Halo 5 a sign of desperation? No --- I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius | |
I am going to say it is actually a sign of two things. E3 is going to be packed with games coming out in 2014 (and before Halo 5), and they know not everybody is going to be happy this game isn't coming out in 2014. They seem to like getting disappointment out of the way pre-E3 --- --- Chilling and Killing 11 (Punching Titans) on youtube. http://youtu.be/q4p7NCm7fng | |
Games are just too big to be a secret anymore. Remember someone pushed the big red button on putting Halo 4 on the xbox website THE DAY OF announcing it on E3. You could hear the air deflating around the world. Best to have your day when you can have it. | |
Pretty sure it's a sign of TC keep annoying | |
I think it is a deflection. The kinectless xb1 just adds to the perception of a screwed up strategy, one that has gained traction with gamers and which the shareholders may well be thinking as well. The April NPD figures are exactly glorious either, so maybe they felt they had to go aggressive on the PR side and deploy some of their reserves earlier than planned. Whether it's a good idea remains to be seen. Getting out the new Kinectless spec way before E3 is something they had to do, because it means at E3 they can take concentrate on games, taking on Sony on a level playing field and not having to deal with more questions over strategy and 180's etc. But now they are eating into their sales pitch for games, which I would say makes it easier for Sony --- Yes my game is Wiggle jiggle. | |
Legend053180 posted... Games are just too big to be a secret anymore. Did anyone seriously think Halo5 was coming this year? There was never a chance of that, which is where Halo 2A comes in. Same deal with Sony rereleasing TLoU, with no Uncharted4 until 2015 at the earliest --- Yes my game is Wiggle jiggle. | |
Gadoken22 posted... Something's going down in 24 hours. Apparently, it's related to Halo. Now we know that E3 is when Microsoft is supposed to drop the bombs but in the span of one week, we've had the death of Kinect and now the showing of Halo. Well Phil Spencer did say they was going show a few things before E3 and he wasn't lying. Now if they are doing all this how crazy must there show be cause I think Sony should be worried. --- Gametag-BLOODLUST66 PSN-Dalust66 | |
BukoNuTz posted... Here it is folks, Halo 5: Guardians. Halo 5: Guardians is a bigger effort than Halo 4. That applies to the content and scope of the game, as well as the technology in whats now a brand new and more powerful engine. Certainly there are some core elements carried over from prior games, but weve invested a huge effort in retooling our tech to take full advantage of the Xbox Ones hardware and ecosystem to create worlds and experiences worthy of next-gen. Take your time if you're gonna have a new engine. --- Praise the Sun!! | |
Okay, we've been hearing for weeks that MS has 'too much' to cram into their E3 conference... Halo 5 information is something they release randomly on a Friday morning? There had better be a huge trailer or people are going to shred them over this. I don't mean a 30 second teaser either, we already got that. 90 seconds to two minutes, of actual in engine gameplay, or they can just f*** right off. --- You are hallucinating.

FOX Sports Exclusive
Forgotten Lackey has memorable game
Three thoughts about the Boston Red Sox's 1-0 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday in Game 3 of the American League Championship Series:
1. Lackey's finest hour
In his pregame news conference, Red Sox right-hander Jake Peavy took a moment to remind reporters that, uh, the guy facing Tigers righty Justin Verlander in Game 3 also was pretty good.
"Johnny's a stud. John Lackey is a stud," Peavy said. "And it's been funny for me to watch all the coverage of the game coming in. I have heard John Lackey's name mentioned three or four times. Almost like we didn't have a starter going today."
Oh, the Red Sox had a starter going, all right. A guy who won Game 7 of the 2002 World Series for the Angels when he was 24. A guy who was the Red Sox's most consistent rotation member for most of the regular season after missing all of 2012 while recovering from Tommy John surgery.
Lackey, 34, didn't exactly enter Tuesday's game on a roll — his ERA in his previous five starts was 5.57, prompting concern among Sox officials that he was wearing down. The Sox, after starting Lackey in Game 2 in the Division Series, pushed him back to Game 3 of the ALCS, enabling him to pitch on nine days' rest.
Well, something clicked.
On Tuesday, Lackey unleashed his masterpiece.
He outpitched Verlander, working 6-2/3 shutout innings. He escaped unscathed after allowing a leadoff double by Jhonny Peralta in the fifth. He finished with eight strikeouts, a career-high for him in 14 postseason starts.
It was a pitching clinic, a 12-year veteran at his most savvy. After the first three Tigers hitters swung at the first pitch, Lackey immediately adjusted, making greater use of his curveball. He threw 19 curves among his 97 pitches (19.6 percent), according to Brooksbaseball.net. During the regular season, he used his curve only 10.1 percent of the time.
Nothing fazed Lackey on this day, not a 17-minute delay because of a power outage, not his 4.48 ERA on the road during the regular season, compared with 2.47 at home.
If you saw my postgame interview with him on "FOX Sports Live," you learned that Lackey wasn't slighted by all the attention on Verlander and doesn't view his comeback as redemption from his participation in the fried-chicken-and-beer episode at the end of 2011 season. He sees things in more simple terms, always will.
This is one of the game's fiercest competitors, someone who takes "angry pills" on the day he pitches, according to Peavy. True to form, Lackey fought being removed from the game with one on and two out in the seventh, telling manager John Farrell, "You've got to be f------ kidding me!" But that moment was an exception. Peavy, an excitable sort himself, said he was struck by Lackey's composure.
Naturally, Peavy couldn't help himself afterward, talking up Lackey again, telling reporters, "It just amazes me that somebody with his resume and the back of his baseball card gets overlooked in a game like this." But Peavy acknowledged that Lackey did not care one whit about being overshadowed by Verlander.
"In talking to John, it's about the guys in this room," Peavy said. "He's so locked in. He wants to be a world champion again."
2. Verlander's lone miscue
As Verlander entered the Tigers' dugout at the end of the seventh inning, pitching coach Jeff Jones asked him if he was OK. Verlander, who had thrown 112 pitches to that point and just allowed his only run on a homer by Mike Napoli, blew right by Jones without saying a word.
Moments later, during "God Bless America," Verlander stood fidgeting in the dugout, visibly upset. At one point, after the song was over, he shouted an expletive. But he gathered himself and returned to form in the eighth, preventing Stephen Drew from advancing after Drew reached second with none out on a single and error by right fielder Torii Hunter.
Verlander's overall performance was brilliant — eight innings, one run, 10 strikeouts, one walk. Verlander did not allow a hit until Jonny Gomes' single with two outs in the fifth. And while some might question why he threw a fastball to Napoli on 3-2 — a 96-mph fastball, mind you — Verlander had a perfectly reasonable explanation.
"I felt like he hadn't seen the fastball very well today and he took those two sliders before that pitch. The second one I threw was a really good slider that he didn't chase. So, 3-2 there," said Verlander, who had struck out Napoli on a slider in the second and gotten two swings-and-misses on fastballs in striking him out in the fifth.
"Having faced him a couple of times already, I knew he wasn't seeing the fastball that great,'' Verlander added. "I decided to challenge him. I made a little bit of a mistake. It was a little bit up and over the middle. You have to give him credit."
Before that at-bat, Napoli had been 0 for 6 with six strikeouts in the ALCS.
3. Where is the Tigers' offense?
The Tigers, batting .225 with a .648 OPS, actually are outhitting the Red Sox, who are batting .133 with a .450 OPS – and ahem, 43 strikeouts in 90 at-bats. Still, you expect more from Miguel Cabrera, Prince Fielder and Co., much more.
One major problem — leadoff man Austin Jackson, the Tigers' offensive catalyst, is batting .091 in the postseason with a .264 OPS and 18 strikeouts in 33 at-bats.
Since 2010, the Tigers are 203-85 (.705) in the regular season when Jackson starts and scores a run, 11-4 (.733) in the postseason, according to STATS LLC. When Jackson starts and does not score, the Tigers are 105-151 (.410) in the regular season and 5-12 (.294) in the postseason.
How dire is the current situation?
Manager Jim Leyland said that he is considering replacing Jackson in center field with Don Kelly — yes, Don Kelly, whom the Tigers twice dropped from their 40-man roster in 2012.
"The only thing you could think about would (be to) possibly play Donny in center field. I would think that would be the only move you could think about," Leyland said. "I thought about that one time in the series. But I'm not really sure that's the answer. I'll have to think about that one, sleep on it tonight."

Released: Jul 01st, 1992
Running Time: 75
Director: Rex Borsky
Company: Rosebud Productions
Peter North, Mai Lin, Flame, Sean Michaels, Jon Dough, Moana Lisa, Venus (I), Joey Silvera, Nikki Sinn, Dallas (I), Anisa
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
The storyline somehow got cut in the final edit of this wall-to-wall, all-anal feature, so I'll guess at what happened. This guy gets hungry for Chinese food and orders out, but calls the wrong number and ends up with Anisa and Flame. Lots of oral action here. Then Sean Michaels gets into the act with Mai Lin. For dessert, we go back to our first threesome, where Anissa's been replaced by Venus, who gets the backdoor prod. Next up, Joey gets into Nikki Sinn's nether region while she licks Dallas, and a scorching Moana Lisa/Anisa/Peter North threesome finishes the tape. North drenches the lovely ladies in an extended protein shower he must have been saving up for a month.
A marketable anal title from a company that specializes in this material. Worth a look.

Towards robustness in parsing - Fuzzifying context-free language recognition
Asveld, P.R.J. (1995) Towards robustness in parsing - Fuzzifying context-free language recognition. In: Developments in Language Theory II -- At the Crossroads of Mathematics, Computer Science and Biology, 1995, Magdeburg, Germany (pp. pp. 1-2).
137kB |
Abstract: | We discuss the concept of robustness with respect to parsing or recognizing a context-free language. Our approach is based on the notions of fuzzy language, (generalized) fuzzy context-free grammar, and parser/recognizer for fuzzy languages. As concrete examples we consider a robust version of Cocke-Youger-Kasami's algorithm and a robust kind of recursive descent recognizer. Keywords and phrases: fuzzy language, fuzzy context-free grammar, fuzzy context-free -grammar, grammatical error, parsing/recognition of fuzzy languages, Cocke-Youger-Kasami's algorithm, recursive descent. |

April 8, 2011 Man who threatened Cantor gets 2 years http://www.jewishjournal.com/nation/article/man_who_threatened_cantor_gets_2_years_20110408 |
A man who threatened to kill Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.), speaking of his "final Yom Kippur," was sentenced to two years in prison. The Washington Post on Friday quoted prosecutors as saying Norman LeBoon, 33, of Philadelphia, must also complete three years of supervision after his sentence is complete, including no Internet access. LeBoon had posted the video on YouTube in March 2010, at the height of the debate over health care when a number of Democrats had been threatened, although it is not clear why he threatened Cantor, the only Jewish Republican in Congress. "Our judgment time, the final Yom Kippur has been given," LeBoon said in the video. "You and your children are Lucifer's abominations." LeBoon pleaded guilty in a federal court in November to threatening Cantor and his family. Cantor, at the time the minority whip in the U.S. House of Representatives, is now the majority leader |

A blast, apparently caused by explosives stored in a house ripped through Karachi, killing at least seven people, some of whom may have been militants.
At least 7 persons were killed and eight others injured in an explosion at a house in southern Pakistani city of Karachi today, police said.
The blast occurred at a one-room house located near Babri mosque in Baldia town area of Karachi at around 8.15 am, deputy inspector general Sardar Majeed said.
Other officials said five persons were killed and eight others were injured in the explosion.
Police and security forces cordoned off the area and bomb disposal squad carried out a search. Suicide jackets, grenades and weapons were found in the house which was rented out to unidentified persons, officials said. Police were trying to trace the owner of the house.
The injured have been taken to nearby Abbasi Shaheed Hospital.
The blast smashed windows of nearby houses in the congested area.

With the seemingly never-ending U.S. election finally out of the way, it's time to assess what the outcome may portend for the giant but underperforming $15 trillion American economy.
President Barack Obama managed to eke out a second term, but he will continue to face stiff opposition in Congress. Moreover, Obama cannot be said to have secured a sweeping mandate.
The country, like Congress, remains almost evenly divided between proponents and critics of "big government."
On economic policy, getting anything done – raising the debt ceiling, giving the president authority to negotiate trade agreements, inking an annual budget and finding a fix for the U.S. government's deep-seated fiscal problems – will require compromise and good will among the political class, commodities in short supply in Washington, D.C., over the past few years.
In the short term, the biggest challenge is addressing the so-called "fiscal cliff" – the fact that, absent action by the administration and Congress, 2013 will bring a series of automatic tax increases and spending cuts amounting to almost 5% of gross domestic product. With the U.S. economy still struggling to gain traction, racing over the fiscal cliff would quickly lead to a new recession – which is why most pundits believe it won't happen.
Yet in the summer of 2011, Washington came perilously close to defaulting on the government's debt as the Republicans and Democrats proved unable to resolve their differences in a timely manner.
So the world must anxiously wait to see how the often dysfunctional American political system manages the risks posed by the looming fiscal cliff.
While American politics may present a dismal spectacle, the economy is actually showing signs of life. Certainly the most recent employment numbers sound an encouraging note.
In October, U.S. employers created jobs at the fastest pace in eight months, with the unemployment rate falling below 8% for the first time since January 2009.
American companies have added four million jobs in the past 30 months. These private-sector employment gains have been partly offset by dwindling public sector payrolls, as many cash-strapped states and municipalities have pruned staff. But public sector employment is no longer declining.
To be sure, there is a long way to go before the U.S. labour market returns to health, but progress is being made.
And the long-troubled housing sector is also turning around. After peaking at more than two million housing starts in 2004 and 2005, residential construction collapsed during 2007-09.
Annual starts fell as low as 450,000 at the bottom of the epic American real estate meltdown.
Housing starts have been slowly rising since then and are on track to reach 900,000 in 2013.
After unprecedented declines, home prices are stabilizing in the states that were at the heart of the housing downturn.
This is welcome news for Canadian lumber producers, whose southbound exports have already started to revive as America's housing market improves.
Of interest, the pace of household formation in the United States has been running far behind historical trends for the past five years.
With a steadily growing population, this can't continue indefinitely. As U.S. household formation picks up, the conditions will be laid for stronger residential investment, higher lumber prices and several years of stronger Canadian lumber shipments to the vital U.S. market.
A final piece of positive economic news comes from corporate America.
Outside of the financial sector, business balance sheets are in excellent shape, and most large U.S. companies have ample cash reserves to support future hiring and investment.
Against the backdrop of a struggling global economy and an uncertain policy environment at home, many U.S. businesses have been reluctant to spend. But this caution should ease over the next six to 12 months.
None of this is to minimize the challenges confronting America, nor to overlook the reality that the broader international economy has been losing momentum over much of 2012.
The eurozone is in recession, Japan remains weak and many emerging economies – including China and India – have marked down their near-term growth projections. Although the United States is a far more "closed" economy than Canada, global developments still have a bearing on America's prospects.
Recent forecasts suggest the U.S. economy will grow by a little more than 2% next year, similar to what's expected for 2012. But there is reason to believe a stronger rebound will take root by the second half of 2013.
Indeed, America's economy may now be positioned for several years of solid expansion, as the painful after-effects of the 2008-09 downturn and the collapse of the preceding credit boom continue to dissipate.
As the healing process continues, U.S. real GDP growth should climb to 3% or more in both 2014 and 2015. •

Normal STF's a waste of time?
This has probably been discussed before, but just wanted to put it out there.
From looking at the PvE boards there's a lot of griefing regarding "noobs" (such as myself) going straight into elite runs without the proper gear (read: rainbow/skittle boats) Or proper tactics/lack of coms. It seems to me that even a noob can tell that there's no point in doing normals if all the good loot is in elites. After all, that's why we do the grind. So, my idea: get rid of normals, and turn them into a tutorial all players have to do 10 or more times over, before they can be allowed to do elites. Also, when new players start doing tutorial STF's, have all the necessary information in them. ie: SHOW people that they need to use a single energy type. And show them they need to use the appropriate tactic for said stf. What's killing the leet STF's right now are the players who simply don't know what to do, or how to do it, not knowing what to use. The difference between elite gameplay and normal STO gameplay is pretty huge in terms of difficulty, so can we really blame noobs for coming into elites with poor or inadequate set ups and tactics? |
I get some MK XI shield/engine/defector tech on normal. That's as good as I ever get on elite. Though elite does bring prototype salvage, so MK XII weapons are obtainable. Normal is just as good for dilithium grinding. ;)
Normals are great for first time STFs or players who just want to run a casual STF with their chosen ship and tactics (no need premades in Normals).
It gets the new STF pilot familiar with targeting priority and mission sequences without adding too much in the way of frustration. You pretty much have to know how things work in Normals to have a chance at Elites. How would you know ship systems synergy and maximum DPS in stressful situations otherwise? (PvP excepted) As for Normals having poor loot, not true at all. You get Rare Borg Salvage for Mark 11 (Veteran) equipment easily, and you can farm Rare Salvage far faster than you can grind out Prototypes from Elites. Salvage is all that matters in STFs - you don't need green or blue items anymore once you have a full [Borg] loadout. And by this reasoning, Elites can be a waste of time if you don't wish to have a stressful, very time-sensitive and possibly very frustrating gaming environment. Indeed, you should save Elites for when you're able to dogfight with the best of them and run tight ship builds at maximum efficiency, while exercising leadership and command talents to guide and coordinate with the other Elite pilots. "Maximum Effort" is the key in Elite Cure Space. One slip up and the whole mission goes down the gutter. You want to be the guy capable of saving the Optional for the team, not the one begging for help because you don't have enough firepower to knock down the 3 Elite Raptors bearing down on the Kang and only you are in the way. You won't stand a chance at Elites if you don't know how Normals work. Elites are just more fun and definitely more rewarding when you have a zero point something chance of getting that Prototype Tech, but it is also arguably a waste of time to grind Elites endlessly with that kind of Prototype drop rate. You can grind 100 Elite missions and still not have a single Proto Tech to show off. Mark 12s are great but after all, not mandatory for success in STO. On the contrary, there's nothing 'newbie' about Normals. They're guaranteed fun, you get to experiment with ship and character builds to learn what works for you. You get to mess around for fun once in a while without compromising team success. There's room to grow and master the mission environment so you can truly appreciate the challenge and the teamwork mandatory for victory in Elite, which is IMO, not that difficult once you know how things work. Normals are the key :) For myself I only started STFing on April Fool's Day. Within a week I was doing the easier Elite Space mission - ISE. Second week, KASE, 4th week, CSE. Mix Elites with your Normals and you'll have a ball of a time WINNING at every turn, which is all that matters, really. |
I've played normals where, as you state, most of the other players have been in rainbow boats. I've played Cure Space normal where the majority of the players present were in rainbow boats and spent most of the mission shooting at the Borg cubes, completely ignoring the Kang, not the mention the BOP's, Raptors, Negh' Var's and the generator spheres. This results in the 'mission' either taking FAR longer than necessary, or complete failure if the only ships that know what they're doing becoming overwhelmed. On the flip-side, I've played normal STF's where the other players made short work of everything, the optional was passed with plenty of time to spare, and the drop at the end of the mission made it worthwhile. To be honest, on reflection, I think that I've experienced more of the latter fortunately. The former is VERY frustrating though, especially when you TRY telling the rainbow boats to leave the cubes alone (to which there is seldom ever any response). The optional fails pretty much 100% of the time when I've found myself in a (normal) STF with rainbow boat clowns. |
Tactics, setup etc all there. Gear is very cheap to find on the exchange...rare XI gear is enough to get started on stf's, even elite. In my opinion, leveling process is much too fast. it should take a player at least twice the time to lvl to 50. With all the doff missions and mirror events at hand, lvling a toon has become a trivial thing to do, i skipped nearly all of the story missions and nevver did any patrol missions. Leveling new toons is soo dumbed down that it gets to the point of a browser game, where you logg in once a day, do the daily foundry...DOFF missions and maybe a mirror event. To be clear i did all the missions when i started my first toon in 2011 and i enjoyed it. What i mean is that new players may lose the experiance of doing those missions, because they lvl too fast. |
Whilst I consider myself an 'adequate' player - my ship can survive an Elite STF - I do tend to prefer normal STF's. I fly a Bellerophon (Intrepid) Retro - it's a good ship, and it's setup as best I can, but it's DPS is not huge and I've always felt it far more suited to Normal STF's rather than Elite, where I am only really useful as a healer, with a little crowd control on the side, but am not able to do a great deal of damage to enemty ships 1-on-1. And when it boils down to it, I feel like a more of a burden than a help and, on occasions when the STF has failed, I've almost felt that it was my fault. And to be honest, I'm quite happy with MkXI gear anyway - I've never felt that the difference between MkXI and MkXII is so huge that it's a gamebreaker. |
Thanks for all the replies! Lots of good points made. :)
So not a waste if time for those who just want to grind Mk XI gear, dilithium, and chips. Still, i think there is a need for some sort of requirement for new players before they start Elite STFs. I remember when i first started playing STO, (all of 5 months ago...:D) there were a couple of tutorial like missions that i did just to get them out of the way. Stuff like the MacKenzie Calhoun mission that serves as an intro into PVP. I dont remember doing anything like that for STFs? I was thinking they should make something new that can serve as an intro for new STF-ers. Maybe something like: "Go to DS9 and talk to the folks in charge of STFs, then watch a video on a console there" The video could be fan made to help take the strain off the devs. In said video there could be an intro on how to set up your ship/character properly. Then each mission played out individually showing the kind of tactics that are necessary. Showing people how to communicate. They could have one video for each STF. Accessible to anyone, anytime. But EACH ONE would need to be watched all the way through before doing that particular Elite STF. Surely this would be minimal work for the devs to add? A simple "go here, do this" objective mission with a new console in DS9 onto which fan made vids could be added. Well, rant over. im off to grind some STFs! :) |
Really, I personally agree with some friends who say the rare tech's should be mostly dropping from normals, and the main techs you get in elites being the prototypes.
Not a "Ever single elite run you get a proto tech." but "If you get a tech, it's proto. not a high chance of rare." |
Considering all the lovely stories I hear about Elite STFs around here, I;m sticking with the normal ones.
What;s interesting is that most of the folks doing the complaining are on my ignore list. Hmmm..... |
ummm no one's doing normals? last i checked there were far more queing for normal than elite.
besides with the exception of the MK XII gear and lessend reward, everything in a normal is the same and only a few elitist type people feel that a 1-2% difference on a console, device, equipment, or weapon is really going to make that much of a difference. Sure it takes typically 2-3 normals to = the rewards of an elite but in a pug you can do 3-4 normals by the time a pug completes an elite. there are plenty that are happy with purple MK XI gear and they run normals more often than eliters run elites. so you didn't read the data before posting and it shows. |

Got it!
Got it!
Hey Buddy,
I sure do enjoy your site. Funny, about twenty years ago I hooked up with a dude who turned me on to frottage and I remember I really liked it a lot, but the crowd I was hangin' with, and the scene influenced me into fucking and gettin' my dick sucked - I'm a "top." - but duhhhh... I'm just realizing that the biggest turn-on was that dude twenty years ago.
I feel really dumb not getting it before this, but better late than never, right?
I'm walkin' around now looking at dudes in a whole nother way - and even just doin' that's a big turn-on!
Damn, I LIKE IT!!
Take care (and keep it up)
Palm Springs
Re: Got it!
Jon says it shorter and sweeter than i can:
the scene (cultural messages), and the crowd he was hangin' with (peer pressure), influenced him into fucking
so here's how it's done: take a simple message --"you're not really gay if you don't fuck" -- repeat it a million times -- and, surprise, surprise, everybody's doin anal
what happens if you change the message?
Jon says: "I'm walkin' around now looking at dudes in a whole nother way - and even just doin' that's a big turn-on!"
you change the behavior -- with no loss of eroticism
but the gay establishment won't change the message -- because it's got too much invested in anal and its discontents
and the straight establishment isn't eager to change it either -- because that establishment knows that fear of anal keeps str8 guys str8
so it's up to us to change the message
by speaking the truth of our lives -- everywhere and anywhere we can
thank you Jon!
Re: Got it!
To echo what was said in the post, when I came upon the site and realized more about my own sexuality and sexual desires I got a whole new pair of eyes. Men don't look the same as they used to, they are so much more erotic and attractive in their own right, and really attractive features stand out. It's helped me a lot with my own personal esteem and body image as well, i really do agree with bill's message that sex is genital-gential contact, and penetration being a hetero idea, is not gay - specifically speaking for "gay" sex.

Hello all. I have some newbie questions and maybe someone could help me out.
I was wondering how "raw" freeze dried foods are. I have some "Just Tomatoes" products that I like to snack on and I was wondering how freeze dried compared to dried (dehydrated) fruits.
Also, frozen foods. (Like frozen fruit for smoothies.) I have seen raw icecream recipes using frozen nut milks and fruits so does that mean they are "legal"? Are commercially available fruits/veggies heated before they are frozen or do I have to freeze my own from fresh?
My last question is what is up with green smoothies? When do I drink them? Morning only? What goes in there? I've read to only put some apple in your carrot juice but no other fruits. As far as combining goes, fresh fruit is supposed to be eaten alone. So does that mean I can't mix my fruits/veggies/nuts in my smoothies?
(just to give background we are juicing most mornings w/ veggies and a little bit of apple. then eating fresh fruit on it's own after that. We did a raw till dinner plan for about a week after reading The Raw Foods Detox Diet, but are trying to figure out what we can live with on a daily basis.)
Personally I wouldn't touch freeze dried food, I don't use frozen food either. Nutrients do get lost when food is frozen, and it seems to be too processed and messed with for me to feel like it is good for me. Dehydrated food have only had one process – the drying. Freeze dried food is frozen then dried. It's just one step too far for me!
A lot of frozen food is flash boiled before it is frozen. Corn is, peas are, fruit isn't normally, but do check with the manufacturer, or just stay away from it. Basically anything that comes in a package is suspect, fresh is best ;)
Also most commerially available nut milks are pasturised, and cooked too, so again check, but they're not likely to be raw.
Freezing your own fresh food would be a good idea. Then you can buy in bulk when the fruit is in season and save some money.
You can drink your green smoothie whenever you feel like it. Most rawies have theirs in the morning coz we usually don't feel like eating till later in the day. Put whatever fruit you like in it. I like orange juice and spinach, or apple and kale.
Food combining is a personal choice. Personally I don't follow it and never have, I feel it is more for cooked people and people who have digestion disorders. I couldn't do with restricting myself especially when there are so many amazing and delish recipes to try. And I don't think I would have lasted through the transition if I had been doing food combining.
The main thing is to make your raw journey as enjoyable as possible, find recipes you LOVE and really want to eat. That is what will keep you going and make it work for you.
I hope that helps, let us know how it goes…
Thanks so much Zoe!
I'm going to see if I can investigate the frozen fruits a little more.
In some cases (ie organic strawberries and blueberries) I'm finding that the frozen is cheaper than fresh. I'm not really comfortable with conventional berries since they have some of the highest pesticide load. And since I'm going to be sharing my smoothies with my little guy I am trying to be concious of the pesticide issue too. (As they effects kids the most.)
I am trying to ballence some raw changes and our family budget too. :)
I can't wait to go shopping tomorrow and try some green smoothies! mmmm
I have some of the same questions, being new to raw as well. I love berries and don't want to give up frozen ones just yet. When they get in season, I am sure I will buy lots to freeze, but also eat lots too. :-) I don't have an extra freezer either, and it's pretty packed. Personally I would rather buy local berries that are frozen than "fresh" fruit shipped in from mexico. But that's just me. And I realize by buying bananas I do sometimes get Mexican fruit as well. We all have to make trade-offs I suppose. I have heard that blanching does not kill many of the nutrients, but I may be wrong…
bitt—cooking doesn't kill all the nutrients either if i am not mistaken. it's not so much nutrient loss that raw foodists are concerned with as enzymes. many cooked veggies still have nutrients and vitamins left in them, depending on the degree of cooking, but having experimented with how i feel eating "lightly cooked" foods and all raw, i know which "vitamin-vehicle" i prefer. whatever goodness i'd get from the cooked food my body would have to cope with "cleaning up the mess"... i intuit that there are less trade offs with natural, whole, raw foods.
of course, your body gets more sensitive to this sort of thing the more you've been eating this way… i ate a lot of frozen fruit my first few weeks too (mostly because i thought it was raw).
Hi Mamak
I wrote an article on freezing and raw recently.

Hope it's of help.
