Kofi Annan aides Dallas victims of squalor
I hate askin the UN for help but I'm desperate. These speakers are taking forever. First I listened to Planet10 and Bill Fitzgerald debate MDF or ply. Then finding a design I had a chance of pulling off. This will be my first home speaker. Then the problem of finding Baltic birch. I found a great deal on 1/2" Baltic in a town 40 miles away, I got three 5X5 sheets and a table saw.
Then hurricane Dennis came and I had to put the birch ply on my windows ! Geez, what next ? o.d.t.a.a. Because Ron Clark's Dallas II plans call for .700" ply and my wood was .500" I did some redesigning to keep the cross section of the sound path the same area. I thought a double thickness baffle would help the sound. I also thought the center fold should be doubled since it was 27" long and only supported by the sides. ...now the big mistake... I used Gorilla glue to laminate two 27"pieces . The glue expanded and there are gaps around the edges. I had enough wood left over to remake the baffles and the lamination worked well with the yellow glue. I don't have enough birch left to redo the 27" pieces so I am now trying to fill the gaps with yellow wood glue (pva?) Would I be better off continuing to do this or should I just use 3/4 MDF for this one piece ? |

The UN simply doesn't have time to handle all speaker-related issues brought to its attention, but I will make an exception in this case.
In my experience with speaker building, I screw up a lot. So while I am not the person to ask questions of concerning good planning and execution, I may be able to advise with fixing things that didn't quite work out as planned. I always use a little caulk to fill unplanned gaps. Some say rope caulk works well, but I like the lazy way with the stuff that doesn't require a caulk gun, but oozes out of a pressurized can with just the push of a finger. I'd stay away from filling gaps with wood glue, but only because its messy and I don't think it will fill the gaps quite as well as caulk. Good luck with your project! Kofi |

Oh yea, and a few more questions may I ask you or the security council ? I have some 1/4 Luan plywood I was going to use to cover my plies. When I cut it the cut edge frays pretty badly. Is there anything I can do to get a smoother cut ? I'm thinking of making the top of the speaker flip up to reveal a secret felt lined compartment. Will I pay a sonic penalty for doing this ? |

try a specialty blade, cutting the proper direction.
or try tape on the pretty side while cutting.
Jesus loves you. |

cutting plywood
For a smooth result when cross cutting plywood, on your line cut through the top "end grain" layer with a utility knife(new blade), then make cut on the "waste" side.

Hi MikeFarad , oface..... Thanx for the advice.
Although I was able to get some clean cuts on the 1/4" Luan it just wans't getting the effect I wanted. It would have stained very differently than the birch. I got some 1/2" quarter-round and will cover my plies with that. Progress is slow. Being a pool tech in the middle of summer I'm bussier than a one legged man in a bum kicking contest. Has anyone looked at my first attachment ? Is anyone else planning to build one of these ? |

Two down and one to go.
That's how many times I tipped over when I took off on my first long ride with new clipless road bike pedals. If conventional wisdom holds true that all things come in threes, I'm due for at least one more topple.
For anyone on the Sellwood Bridge about 3:15 p.m. on a recent Sunday, you saw me at the east end taking a slow-mo spill while trying to detach my right foot as I miscalculated the distance to the barrier that I'd hoped to grab to prop myself up while I waited for break in traffic to cross. (Navigating the Sellwood Bridge construction zone for cyclists is another story -- post to come.)
You also saw me pop up fast with no scratches on my bike (because it landed on me -- a good thing if you want to protect the paint job) and continue on apace.
If you can face the prospect of falling -- and you will fall -- then you'll find clipless pedals are sublime. It takes a bit more oomph to unhitch your feet when you're coming to a stop compared to toe clips, but you'll find your pedaling much more efficient and powerful.
For downtown riding with a lot of stops, you may feel more comfortable with regular pedals. But on my ride from Portland to Oregon City along River Road and back on Oregon 43, the clipless pedals made "ride like the wind" so much more than the cheesy Christopher Cross song you recorded for that mix tape of '80s classics.
I did hedge my bets by buying a used pair of hybrid Shimano pedals from Sellwood Cycle Repair for $45 -- each pedal has one platform side and one cleat side for versatility. I also bought a pair of mismatched Sidi shoes for a discounted $80 at Sellwood Cycle, so the expense wasn't prohibitive.
Sellwood Cycle's Julie Kramer has some good advice for clipless novices: Brace yourself against a hallway wall at home and try clipping in and out. Then try practicing in a parking lot to gain confidence.
Everyone has a story about falling and Julie's is a memorable one: In front of a school bus full of football players.
When I first tried my clipless pedals, I had trouble yanking my right foot out, so I took my bike to Sellwood Cycle and service manager Matt Mahoney loosened the connection. He also demonstrated the proper technique: Yanking was my problem. Best to keep your foot flat and move your heel to the outside in a fluid motion to decouple.It worked. And now I'm still awaiting my third fall.
Here are a couple of good primers on pedals of all kinds and which ones might work for you:

Title: PHP mail(); won't work on XAMPP 1.0.1 on OSX 10.5 Hi there I'm coding PHP on Mac OSX 10.5 (Leopard) with the latest version of XAMPP (1.0.1) and I'm having trouble to see why my mail(); won't work. The code seems valid in every way, and it even loads the success statement which its instructed to echo when the function is complete. My only guess is that there is a setting somewhere in XAMPP that is stopping the mail(); from working. Any ideas as to what to do? Everything in XAMPP is at its default settings, if that is any help. Everything is newly installed and at its default including the php.ini file. here is what the current settings are (php.ini) : PHP Code:
Any ideas as to what I should do? |

I am sure your code is fine, and that it probably should work. I do it differently but there are many ways.
Nevertheless, I dont think the mail function works on XAMP whatever way you look at it. I couldnt get it to work on MAMP (and I assume they are basically the same thing) but when I uploaded the script to my webserver, it worked fine. Try it on a webserver, let me know. |

It's difficult to get a pulse on what's going on at OCZ Technology, though the fact that it still has one is at least a little bit encouraging. What investors didn't find encouraging is OCZ's warning that its customer incentive program will result in a "significant" quarterly loss and "materially lower" revenue than what was previously forecast. On the bright side, there's a new chief in town, and he doesn't seem much into sugar coating the situation.
OCZ appointed Ralph Schmitt as its new president and chief executive officer, effectively immediately. Previous to accepting his new role at OCZ, Schmitt served in the same capacity at PLX Technologies, a provider of semiconductor-based connectivity solutions aimed mostly at enterprise and consumer markets.
The press release announcing his hiring is filled with the usual optimism that accompany such things, though Schmitt is quoted as saying there are some "near-term tactical challenges" facing OCZ. He was even more candid during a conference call with investors.
"We are here to generate value for shareholders, and we've failed at that mission," Schmitt said, according to Mercury News. "We've lost credibility, but we'll gain it back with consistent execution that will achieve effective results."
Honest assessment notwithstanding, investors didn't react all that positively to the news, promptly sending shares of OCZ's stock down 40 percent to $1.88. According to Bloomberg, that's the biggest drop since at least February 2010. Overall, shares of OCZ stock are down 72 percent this year.
"There was such an emphasis in the second quarter from management to grow market share at all costs," Schmitt added. "Hence extraordinary incentives were undertaken."
Those incentives occurred under the leadership of Ryan Peterson, company founder and former CEO of OCZ. Peterson stepped down last month, handing the reins over to Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, Alex Mei, on an interim basis. At the time, there were reports OCZ might consider selling off its assets versus trying to relaunch the company. It appears with the hiring of Schmitt that it decided to go with the latter.

Luscious® Berry Blend™ Lantana camara
Luscious® Berry Blend™ Lantana camara
If you are looking for a tough plant it's hard to beat lantana.
Plant Needs
Great in landscapes and containers.
Lantana are heat tolerant, use little to no supplemental water in the landscape, will tolerate less than ideal soils and usually don't need to be deadheaded. If you are looking for a plant that will thrive on neglect, lantana is the champ. Lantana come in many shapes, sizes and habits. Check size and habit information for the specific variety you are choosing to make sure it fits your needs. Lantana can be trimmed back at anytime to shape or to promote increased branching.
In many parts of the US and Canada lantana function as an annual. In reality they are a tender perennial, in warm winter climates they become flowering shrubs.
If you live in an area where Lantana is perennial they are essentially trouble free, they can be pruned at any time of year and usually benefit with a harder shape-up pruning in early spring after last frost date. Midsummer fertilization can help overcome any slow down in growth during the dog days of summer and help bring even more flowers.
According to the Humane Society of America Lantana leaves can be toxic to pets. This means that the plants are generally identified as having the capability for producing a toxic reaction.
Lantana seed set varies considerably. If you see a lot of berries developing you may want to deadhead the plants to help with continuous blooming. If there is low berry set, deadheading shouldn't be necessary for continuous bloom. Some varieties are self-cleaning.
An application of fertilizer or compost on garden beds and regular fertilization of plants in pots will help ensure the best possible performance.
This pink and yellow bicolor makes a huge statement in the container or garden.

It occurs to that the term striking in regard to a runners landing foot insinuates a deliberate attempt to apply force to the ground. As the ambition of the landing foot is to land with minimal impact on the ground surely the term striking is a misnomer with negative potentialy harmful connotations especialy in regard to people injuring themselves by hitting the ground overly hard with there foot .

Where Shall the Preaching Stop?
Liberty of Conscience: In Defense of America's Tradition of Religious Equality
How should religious beliefs and organizations figure in our political life? At no time in recent memory has this question aroused the passion it does now, thanks to a president who reiterates the importance of his evangelical Christian beliefs and to the Supreme Court's recent far-reaching changes in the interpretation of the First Amendment's guarantee—in the Establishment and Free Exercise Clauses—that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."
In truth, we face not one crucial question about religion and government, but four related ones. The first question is what accommodations government should make to the exercise of religion. Should it exempt religious pacifists from military duty, permit Amish parents to withdraw their children from school after the eighth grade, or allow the Native American Church to use peyote during worship? Should any such exemptions from ordinary legal requirements be extended to people with strong nonreligious claims to the same privileges? How far should legislators decide these matters; to what extent should courts do so as part of enforcing the Constitution?
The second question concerns the government's sponsoring or endorsing particular understandings of religious truth. Should public school teachers lead prayers, or complement the teaching of evolution with ideas of intelligent design? Should winter holiday displays on public property include crèches? Should the Pledge of Allegiance contain the words "under God?" Do these practices amount to forbidden establishments of religion? Related questions arise about the discourse of high officials. Should they, like George W. Bush, keep referring to their own religious convictions and employ rhetorical expressions that appeal to cobelievers?
The third question involves financial assistance. Religious groups offer a wide range of social services, including hospitals, adoption agencies, food kitchens, drug rehabilitation programs, and schools. Should public money assist these endeavors, so long as the state does not favor any particular religion or favor religious efforts over nonreligious ones? If the government can, consistent with the Establishment Clause, pay for these services, should it? If so, what conditions should it set regarding those who receive and provide the services? More particularly, when it pays the bill, should it also bar religious discrimination? Finally, to what degree should religious organizations and those who contribute to them receive relief from property, sales, and income taxes?
The fourth question, although a staple of political philosophy during the last quarter-century, is the least understood. It concerns the explanations citizens and officials offer for their political positions. Should everyone rely on "public reasons," not private faith, when they take part in the political processes of liberal democracies, or may people rely on whatever premises they find most convincing? The initial thought, that people relying on religious principles necessarily promote their religion, is mistaken. Consider the impoverished lives of animals subjected to factory farming. Suppose someone supports a law to assure a more tolerable existence for animals raised for human consumption because she believes God made other animals not purely for human …

I usually don't write about politics or religion because, as they taught me in political science courses at the University of Florida, never discuss politics or religion in public.
Still, when I learned that a group of Satanists was coming to hold a pro-Rick Scott rally on the front steps of the Old Capitol on Jan. 25, the devil's lure proved too powerful to resist. Dang you, Old Scratch.
Members of the Satanic Temple from New York City, Florida and Massachusetts were in town to sing the praises of Satan and our hair follicle-challenged governor. They were giving Scott the ol' two-horns-up sign ...

Should be able to start some internal testing on 4.3 tomorrow. Too tired to work on it today.

New Video Card Status: "OUT FOR DELIVERY" - Soon...
Oh and I added some new filters for spammers, cleaned up the talent page some more, and got the 4.3 DB and Server ready to test as soon as I can finish getting the DBC/Vmaps moved over. Every time I try to access the computer with it..it craps out and my external reader isn't loading the drive properly that has it...probably because it's a lot newer than the external bay. Sigh...
Hoping the card comes soon...tired of feeling like my hands are tied.

Found a dyslexic typo in the core for Priest Shadow spec (including Mastery). Wonder how that got in there....but I found it while looking at the spec trees for the classes. Shadow Spec is 795 not 759.
Oh well, fixed for next build.

Talent page is just about done. Note: Only works on Cataclysm. Currently have the links attached to Wowhead..though I plan on internalizing it later. Just like with the equipment page, icons will need downloaded for any talents that have never been loaded before. So, classes that have never been clicked before will take awhile to load..the first time.
The trees, specs, rows, cols, spell ids, and max ranks are all compiled straight from the dbc. So, there shouldn't be any errors.
Also, noticed even though I replaced online status for GMs with 'GM' that you could still list by online status and find GMs. So, the system will no longer display GMs, period.
Edit: Noticed a calculation oversight on how many points spent per tree. Adjusted it.
Update: Added shading to unused talents, brightness to used ones, and some cleanup of the layout. Adjusted the layout of the Gear page to match.

Doing some back-end work on the databases and website in preparation for 4.3 testing. I did, however, think about an interesting idea to help streamline but reports and testing. I'm not sure if I'll implement it or not. But, we have the system set up to do it.
I was thinking with the way the armory and bug tracker work..it would be fairly easy to combine the two. So, if you went to look up an item, a spell, or a talent (either through the armory character, spell, quest, or item pages) you could see comments/notes specific to that talent, spell, item, or quest. It would make reporting and finding specific reports much easier. I'm not sure if I want to do that or not..it was just a thought.
I'll consider it further once I finish the Armory..lord knows when that will be. But, when it's finished..it'll be tied into every item, spell, quest, and npc in the game..so it would be streamlined. Fairly powerful tool when put together right.
Shrug, I just like to write my ideas down before I forget them.

So, the anti-spam tools I added put a few more layers of protection but, still didn't stop the manually registering spammers. I've added another fix that should remove that issue permanently.
Spam is for noobs (and Hawaiians).
On a side note, don't FEED the spammers. When you reply to their posts, you bump the validity of their urls on search engines and give me more things I need to delete from the forums, the twitter page, and the facebook wall.

Video card on my primary dev machine took a dump. I got a new one in the mail but..my dev work on 4.3 is suspended until I get that put in.
I could continue work..but using my laptop is frustrating and transferring the data is a pain...especially setting up the sql and port forwarding..only to have to reset it again in a day or two. So, it's best to just work on something else until then.
I started extracting the dbc/vmap data for 4.3 and got all the opcodes updated. Should be good to go to start getting a 4.3 test server up shortly after getting the new hardware.

Fixed the login server to support 4.3.0 - This does NOT meant you can use 4.3 to connect. Just a stepping stone for me to start working on 4.3..doesn't affect users at all.
Just noting in in case anyone was wondering why the login server went down earlier.

Updated the Armory and Stats page to check for GM and not check their online/offline status. Also will not show hidden GMs on the status page.
Increased all paginated pages to 40 per page instead of 20. This change is for Status and all Armory pages. Already added this change to the tracker.
Fixed a couple display issues on Firefox in Linux and IE in windows. Mostly with the bug tracker. Also fixed an issue with pagination on the comments section of the bug tracker..was showing up to 20 but next would only de/increment 4 at a time. It's now 40/40.

Started work on the 4.3 core. Mainly because we finally have most of the important opcodes and a functional inter-operability patcher for the client.
So far it's not much to look at. I'll be working through it this week trying to get it at least in a semi-functional state so I can put it up and see how many issues there are. This is all before even thinking about putting any of our custom changes or bug fixes in. This new core is fairly amateurish but so was the last one. Once I do move our fixes over..most of the issues with it will be fixed.
It's a long haul..for sure. But, there's a few new core changes from 4.3 that will make fixing bugs a bit easier..so that's good. It also has a on-the-fly opcode system that can be updated with a couple keystrokes..no need to restart. I like that part. Not sure if we're going to update to it any time soon..but it's worth looking into for now.
Anyway, that's what I've been working on lately..just thought I'd let everyone know.
P.S. I'll be asking for help testing once I get closer to having a functional version up that isn't embarrassing to look at.

Growing Native Medicinal Plants in Quebec for Sale as Potted Plants
Answered by:
Conrad Richter
Question from:
Andréa Galarneau
Posted on:
February 23, 2007
I live in Quebec (Montreal area) and I'm thinking about starting my
own business in growing medicinal herbs; I'm especially interested in
growing Canadian medicinal native plants, first because it's a
passion, second because I did not find any growers that are
specialized in that particular kind of plants yet.
I was thinking of selling small potted plants to professionnals who
will transform it, and I had an plan (eventually) for displays of 4''
pots of the most popular, well-known and easy-to-grow species in local
nurseries. Since I think that most of the business must be in selling
to professionnals; I was wondering what you thought or knew about
selling that kind of potted plants; is there a market for this? Or is
there only a market for dried/freshly-cut herbs? What kind of business
should I look at as potential buyers? I must say that in Quebec there
ain't a lot of information or ressources about all this and I don't
know where to begin, but I wish to see my dream come true!
Yes, there is a demand for live native plants in Canada. The largest market will likely be to other nurseries and garden centres, however you may also find other markets such as forest reclamation projects. Currently a lot native plants are imported from the U.S. for potting up in Canada. You may be able to serve some of that market.
The other thing is the issue of cultivated vs. wild origin. A lot of the potted native plants are dug from the wild. The destructive potential of this practice is not well understood by consumers yet, but I believe in a few years they will realize how much damage plant diggers are doing to wild populations and will start to demand plants that are propagated from seeds or vegetatively from plants already in cultivation.

"The Late Mr. Kent" is the thirty-sixth episode of Superman: The Animated Series. While investigating a murder case, Clark Kent himself becomes the apparent victim of a murder attempt, and cannot reveal that he survived without exposing his secret identity.
A group of mourners from the Daily Planet attend a memorial at the local cemetery. The funeral is Clark Kent's. Superman watches from nearby and recalls how this all began:
A few days ago, Clark was assigned to interview Ernest Walker, a petty thief convicted of murder for 5 years, and now scheduled for execution in a week. Walker was caught trying to fence the murder victim's necklace, but swore he found it outside his door, and he claimed he was innocent. Using his super senses, Clark determined that Walker was telling the truth. He went to see Detective Bowman, who was the lead investigator on the case. Clark received the case files, and Bowman told him there was no question Walker was guilty.
Clark read through the case files, and was about ready to believe Bowman, when he decided to eat some leftover pizza. This reminded him of Walker's alibi: he was at home, eating pizza. Following up on this, Clark went to the pizza parlor nearest to Walker's home. While the parlor's delivery boy didn't work there anymore, the manager unearthed a set of disks containing old delivery records. Later, Clark called Lois in triumph: He found a record confirming that a pizza was delivered to Walker at almost the exact moment the murder was committed.
Proud of his accomplishment, Clark drove to the governor's mansion in his car, rather than go as Superman and raise some questions. It would have been better if it were Clark's victory for once. However, someone had planted a bomb in his car, which exploded and sent his car careening into the ocean and destroying the disk. Though he survived, Superman saw a fisherman nearby, and realized he couldn't emerge from the ocean without revealing his secret identity, so he swam away.
Later, Superman retrieved Clark's car for the police, under Bowman's direction. Lois attempted to convince Bowman that Walker was innocent, as only the real killer would try to kill Clark. Bowman dismissed her and stated that as he was a reporter, Clark would be prone to a number of enemies. Lois then argued that Clark could still be alive, but Bowman pointed out the eyewitness. However, Lois noticed that the fisherman had to wear glasses to read a clipboard, and went to question him.
That night, Superman went to see his parents, but even they couldn't figure out how to bring Clark back. Superman said he needed to be Clark Kent, as being Superman all the time would drive him insane. But regardless, he still needed to clear Walker.
Back in the present, Superman decides to go to the governor as Clark Kent and explain Walker's innocence, prepared to reveal his secret identity if need be. Superman heads to his apartment to change, and is surprised to find Lois already there. She explains that she was hoping he'd left some evidence of his investigation behind, but couldn't find anything. They both realize that someone has been through the apartment already: Clark's computer has been taken, and his phone has been bugged.
As they talk, Lois mentions that the eyewitness to Clark's "death" is unreliable, as he has extremely poor eyesight, and wasn't even wearing his glasses when the crash occurred. Superman is elated to realize that he can plausibly claim that Clark could have swam to shore without the fisherman noticing, but Lois denies it, claiming that had Clark survived, he would most likely have contacted someone. Lois briefly sheds tears over Clark's apparent death, and admits to Superman that she respected him and cared for him.
Looking through Clark's bookshelf, Lois sees a bomb placed inside. Superman flies her out just before it goes off. He puts out the fire and, scanning the crowd with his x-ray vision, sees Bowman near his apartment.
At the Metropolis Police Department, Lois confronts Bowman: He was the detective on the Walker case, happened to be the one closest to Clark's wreck, and Bowman was spotted near his apartment after the bomb went off. Bowman dismisses her, but Lois holds up the phone tap — standard police issue — and says she will have it checked for fingerprints. Bowman cracks and throws Lois off the stairs. Unfortunately for him, Superman was listening and saves Lois.
Bowman runs to the roof and steals a helicopter. Superman confronts him, but is shot with bullets strong enough to pin him for a few seconds. Bowman then fires a missile at Superman, which hurls him away then explodes, but Superman is unharmed. Superman captures Bowman and he and Lois together will tell the governor of Walker's innocence: It was Bowman who killed the woman, and framed Walker for the crime. Unfortunately, at the last minute, the governor had gone to watch Walker's execution. Superman rushes to the prison and manages to save Walker from the gas chamber at the last minute.
Lois reads her story on Walker's exoneration, but takes no satisfaction in her byline; Clark is still gone. Just then, she gets a phone call and bolts up from her desk in shock. At Lana Lang's penthouse, Lois finds Clark alive and well, but with a bandage around his head. He claims that he washed ashore, found a phone and called Lana, but was too weak to call anyone else until later. Lois is outraged, considering all she went through, but accepts the story.Some time later, Bowman sits in his prison cell, and growls as he angrily reads the story of his own scheduled execution written by Clark Kent. As he sits in the gas chamber, he wonders how Clark survived the car bomb. Bowman suddenly realizes that Clark Kent is Superman right before the lever is pulled, taking his realization with him to his grave.
- Bowman's corruption was foreshadowed in the episode "Target".
- Clark calls on Lana to help him since she is one of the few people besides his parents who know his secret identity, as revealed in "My Girl".
- Interestingly, Superman tells his parents that he needs to be Clark Kent and he'd go crazy if he had to be Superman all the time. However, in Batman Beyond, "The Call", Superman has apparently abandoned his "Clark Kent" persona, as Clark Kent, supposedly a normal human, would have passed away by then.
- Also, in "Mxyzpixilated" when Mr. Mxyzptlk threatens to reveal his secret identity to the world, Superman shrugs it off, saying he'll just come up with another alter ego. Though it is possible this was a bluff on Superman's part.

Production inconsistencies
- When Clark calls Lois to tell her has the evidence to clear Walker, his shirt, tie, and pants change from yellow, black, and green to Clark's usual white, red, and blue.
- When Jimmy and Lois hold up the Daily Planet, the lead is "Superman saves condemned man". In the next shot, the "con" is missing.
- Both Walker and Bowman are sentenced to execution by gas chamber. Most states in the U.S. abandoned lethal gas as a method of execution in the early-mid 1990's, before this episode was produced. Furthermore, Metropolis is located on the eastern seaboard of the U.S. (the same as Gotham City), and only two states on the eastern seaboard have used the gas chamber (see also Justice League Unlimited, "Task Force X"):
- Maryland discontinued the gas chamber in 1994, but allows prisoners sentenced to death before March 25, 1994 to choose that method of execution; assuming Metropolis was located in Maryland, Walker might qualify, but not Bowman;
- North Carolina formerly used the gas chamber, but now uses injection only.
- This is one of the only two episodes that is narrated by Superman in flashback. The other is "Absolute Power".

Superman: Luck. That's what it all boils down to, doesn't it? The smallest break one way or the other. It can save a life or destroy one. And you can't fight it, no matter how strong you are. |
Superman: Dinner was hard to pass up. I hadn't eaten all day... not that I needed to. |
Superman: I suppose I could have flown to the governor as Superman and given him the disk, but that could have raised some awkward questions. Maybe there was some ego involved too. I wanted this to be Clark's victory, not Superman's. |
(Watching Lois depart early from Clark's funeral.) |
Lois: I always teased him. But I had so much respect. (Shedding tears.) And I liked him too, I really did. I wish I'd told him. |
Lois: I don't believe it! You've been sitting here in the lap of luxury while I'm out risking my neck! |
Bowman: (Last words) How did he survive that car bomb? How? (realizes) He's Superman! |

As the world now knows, Lisa Nowak—a highly regarded astronaut who flew aboard the shuttle Discovery last summer—wasn't meeting her boyfriend but rather the woman she believed was stealing the man she loved. What happened next—a frantic and violent confrontation in the airport parking lot, the result of a bizarre love triangle—has left NASA officials, and anyone who knows Nowak, absolutely stunned. Nowak, 43, a married mother of three, was in love with Navy Cmdr. William Oefelein, 41, who trained alongside her in NASA's space shuttle program and piloted the Discovery in a mission last December. At the same time, Oefelein, the divorced father of two children, was apparently romantically involved with Colleen Shipman, 30, a U.S. Air Force captain and engineer assigned to a base near Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Fla.
According to police, Nowak found Shipman's flight plans on Oefelein's computer and learned that she was flying from Houston to Orlando. She packed a steel mallet, a 4-in. knife, a BB gun and large trash bags and drove more than 900 miles from her home in Houston to Orlando—while wearing a NASA-issue space diaper so she wouldn't have to stop. She confronted Shipman at the airport and sprayed her with pepper spray before police arrested her. "We're perplexed and concerned and trying to determine what really happened," said Doug Peterson, spokesman at Johnson Space Center in Houston. "Everything I've ever seen gave evidence to me that Lisa was one of our good astronauts; she had all the right background credentials, skills and abilities. We don't know what happened here."
At first prosecutors initially charged Nowak—who had been designated to be a capsule communicator for the next space shuttle flight on March 15—with attempted kidnapping but later added another charge of attempted first-degree murder; Nowak was released on $25,500 bail and allowed to go home with an electronic monitoring device around her ankle. Shipman, meanwhile, filed a restraining order against Nowak and claimed Nowak had been stalking her for two months.
How did one of NASA's very best and brightest wind up in such a desperate situation? What few people knew was that Nowak's personal life was cracking under the stress of her pressurized job. Neighbors in the affluent Houston suburb of Clear Lake—where Nowak lived with her husband, Richard, 43, a flight controller in Mission Control for the International Space Station; their son Alexander, 15; and twin 5-year-old daughters, Katrina and Alyssa—had no idea anything was wrong with the couple's 19-year marriage. "As far as I knew, everything was fine," says David Silva, who lives across from the Nowaks' two-story brick home in a cul-de-sac. "They're good people." Even Nowak's parents weren't aware her situation was so dire. "Her mother says she wishes she would have known that Lisa was so confused," says Nowak's cousin Tony Caputo, 58. "Her family doesn't know what to do. They are completely devastated by this."
But Nowak's younger sister Andrea Rose told PEOPLE that Nowak and her husband had recently separated; she also said Nowak never quite recovered from losing three former classmates in the 2003 Columbia shuttle explosion. "We knew Lisa was under a lot of stress," says Rose, 41, a lawyer. "But there's no way of knowing how a particular person will react to stress. We love Lisa and we're worried about her well-being." Nowak "is a very loving mother and a caring person," adds her brother-in-law Jonathan Rose. "She was someone who played by the rules. To say this is out of character would be a gross understatement."
It's not clear what kind of relationship Nowak had with Oefelein or what role her attraction to him played in the breakup of her marriage. (She told police she and Oefelein had "more than a working relationship but less than a romantic relationship.") In any case, Nowak apparently believed Oefelein was involved with Colleen Shipman, an Air Force engineer assigned to Patrick Air Force Base near Kennedy Space Center. Shipman, her neighbors say, was unusually warm and bubbly. "If you don't have a smile," says one neighbor, "she'll give you one of hers."
Her relationship with Oefelein, it seems, pushed Nowak over the edge. According to police, Nowak drove more than 900 miles from Houston to Orlando and finally arrived at the La Quinta Inn just outside the Orlando International Airport. Wearing glasses, a dark wig and a light-colored trench coat, she went to the airport and searched for Shipman, who got off a 1:05 a.m. flight from Houston. Nowak followed her onto a shuttle van and got off at the same spot in the parking lot. Shipman heard "running footsteps coming towards her as she was getting into her car," police later recounted. "[She] feared for her safety [and] quickly entered her vehicle."
That's when Nowak banged on the windows and tried to yank open the car doors. "Can you help me, please, my boyfriend was supposed to pick me up and he's not here," Nowak yelled at Shipman, who didn't unlock her door but who did lower her driver side window two inches once Nowak started crying. Nowak promptly shot pepper spray into Shipman's face. "That was stupid," Nowak later told police.
Shipman drove away and summoned police, who found Nowak throwing her wig and BB gun into a garbage can. More incriminating supplies were inside a black duffel bag she was carrying: the brand new steel mallet; several feet of rubber tubing; six latex gloves; large plastic trash bags and $600 in cash. Nowak insisted to police that she merely wanted to speak to Shipman and to scare her away from Oefelein. But prosecutor Amanda Cowan called Nowak's scheme "a very well-thought-out plan to kidnap and perhaps injure the victim." At the police station Nowak "kept saying, 'I can't believe this is happening to me,'" says one of the Orlando police officers who booked her. "A few times, she told us, 'I've never done anything like this before. I'm really sorry.' You could tell that she knew she had blown it, and she wanted us to know that this wasn't the type of person she normally was."
Nowak's arrest is all the more stunning because of her remarkable career. Raised in an upscale section of Rockville, Md., by Alfredo Caputo, a computer consultant, and his wife, Jane, a retired microbiologist, she fell in love with space travel when she was 5. "I remember the moon landing and watching those astronauts, and I thought that was very exciting" she said in a 2005 NASA interview. Early on, classmates could tell Nowak "was naturally gifted," says Mike Haggerty, who lived near her and graduated with her from C.W. Woodward High. "Her dream was always to be an astronaut. She wanted to walk on the moon."
Nowak majored in aerospace engineering at the Naval Academy in Annapolis and spent 10 years in the Navy, rising to the rank of captain. In 1995 she was accepted into the NASA training program. Some 3,500 candidates vie every year for 20 slots in the space shuttle program, an intense and highly stressful competition. "NASA does its best to get cool customers; it wants to weed out who's going to crack when they're in the tin can," says Brian Berger, senior staff writer for Space News, which chronicles NASA. "Astronauts tend to be the cream of the crop. All the astronauts I know are unflappable, really together people."
Nowak seemed no exception. Still, the rigors of training put a strain on her family life; while preparing for missions she often spent weeks away from her husband and children. "There's not a lot of time for [personal things] and less time for family," Nowak said in a 2005 interview. "It's a sacrifice." When NASA chose her to be one of six astronauts on a mission aboard Discovery in July 2006, Nowak's life became even more hectic. "I am lucky to have a very supportive husband," she said in an interview shortly before the shuttle flight. "For me, family is first." In fact, it was Nowak's son Alexander who helped her confront any fears she felt about going up in space only three years after the tragic explosion of the Columbia space shuttle, which killed seven astronauts, including three of Nowak's former classmates. "The day Columbia happened, [Alex] was there sitting with me, and we're watching the television, and there's people he knows that were on that flight," Nowak told Ladies Home Journal last September. "He reaches over and grabs my hand and says, 'Mom, I still want you to go.... I know they'll make it safe again, and I still want you to go.'"
Aboard Discovery, Nowak was in charge of robotic operations, supervising groundbreaking experiments with spacewalking robots. Her performance during the 13-day mission, says Johnson Space Center's Doug Peterson, "was excellent." Once back home, however, Nowak's attraction to Bill Oefelein spiraled out of control. Stephen Harrigan, an Austin-based writer who spent one year interviewing female astronauts for his novel Challenger Park, says they face unique pressures. "They are thrust together with other people in a very bonding way for many, many hours every day," says Harrigan. "The female astronaut, with a family and children, is really pushed to the wall." Still, says Harrigan, what Nowak did "is not typical or normal. But you can see how the pressure cooker of training for missions and being in that intense environment could lead a person into strange new territory."
While prosecutors sort out the charges against Nowak, NASA officials are deciding how to handle what happened. "Our primary concern is Lisa's health and well-being," said NASA's Chief of Astronauts Corps, Col. Steve Lindsey, who trained with Nowak and traveled to Orlando to be with her shortly after her arrest. "We're a close family, and we try to take care of our own." Lindsey, like everyone who knows Lisa Nowak, is facing a struggle to make some sense of the sad, strange turn her life has taken. "For someone who had the ability to do whatever she wanted, who had so much more to give to the world," says her old friend Mike Haggerty, "this is just unfathomable."

Two Android Apps Found Using Master Key Vulnerability
Michael Harper for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online
Security firm Symantec has discovered two Android apps that have been commandeered by a bug found in Google's operating system earlier this month. The bug allows hackers to modify the package file of an app without affecting its original digital signature. This signature verifies the app's legitimacy and safety. Symantec now says there are two apps in the wild in a Chinese app store that have been compromised by this Master Key vulnerability.
Those responsible for injecting malicious code into the otherwise legitimate app's signature are now using the Master Key to steal the phone's International Mobile Station Equipment Identity (IMEI), phone numbers stored on the device, and even send premium SMS messages. The hackers also use the vulnerability to disable other security features that may be found on the phone. In a blog post, Symantec says these two apps are used to help people find doctors and schedule health appointments.
Security research team BlueBox discovered the bug in Google's Android operating system earlier this month. According to BlueBox CTO Jeff Forristal, the vulnerability has been present in Android for about four years and affects 99 percent of all devices running Google's mobile OS, or about 900 million devices worldwide.
Forristal said the bug had been "responsibly disclosed" to Google last February and plans to discuss the bug in greater detail next week at the BlackHat security conference in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Shortly after the BlueBox report was released, Google began issuing patches for devices that run versions of Android 1.6 and higher. Though they were quick with their response, mobile operators are responsible for ensuring customers receive these patches that protect their devices. Sophisticated Android users are able to download and install their own patch after it is made available by other security software providers.
Android is often accused of being a fragmented operating system, meaning the many different phone manufacturers and mobile carriers have to work together to send out updates to the OS. It's because of this fragmentation, whether perceived or real, that Symantec believes the Master Key vulnerability will continue to threaten the safety of some 900 million Android users.
"We expect attackers to continue to leverage this vulnerability to infect unsuspecting user devices," reads the Symantec blog.
The security firm recommends downloading apps only from reputable app stores. Google also suggests sticking to the Google Play app store to download apps. They also recommend not side loading apps from other websites.
Android's popularity and fragmentation are often blamed for the numerous attacks on the operating system. In an April report, Symantec said Android and small businesses were most targeted by hackers in 2012. Though Apple's iOS was found to have the most documented vulnerabilities last year, only one threat was created for the platform. Android, however, saw significantly more harmful apps written to exploit the user.
Fifty percent of all malicious Android apps discovered by Symantec in 2012 were used to track Android users and steal their personal information.

Public consultation into bid for 500 homes north of Chippenham announced by developers
Updated 12:50pm Tuesday 6th May 2014 in News
Developers have announced a public consultation into proposals for 500 homes north of Chippenham, near Barrow Farm.
Robert Hitchins Ltd aims to submit an outline planning application for a mixed-use scheme consisting of up to 500 homes of different types and sizes together with open space, play areas, a local centre, employment land and a new primary school.
Access to the site, north and east of Barrow Farm, would be from two new roundabout junctions on the B4069 Swindon Road.
A spokesman for Robert Hitchins Ltd said: "The proposed scheme would provide much-needed houses, including affordable homes, for the people of Chippenham in accordance with the independently assessed housing needs for the town, and will help Wiltshire Council meet its housing requirements for the area in the next five to ten years.
"The company would very much like local feedback before proceeding with a planning application to Wiltshire Council. In particular, the project team, led by planning consultants AMEC, wants to hear the views of residents, local councillors and representatives from the local community."
There will be a public consultation on Friday, May 16, at Kington Langley Village Hall, Church Road, Kington Langley, SN15 5NJ from 2-8pm.
The project team will go through the proposals and answer questions.
The spokesman said: "We hope that as many people as possible will attend the event. Their comments will be taken on board and will inform our planning application."

A method of multiplexing holograms by rotating the material or, equivalently, the recording beams is described. Peristropic (Greek for rotation) multiplexing can be combined with other multiplexing methods to increase the storage density of holographic storage systems. Peristrophic multiplexing is experimentally demonstrated with Du Pont's HRF-150 photopolymer film. We multiplexed a total of 295 holograms in a 38-μm-thick photopolymer film by combining peristrophic multiplexing with angle multiplexing.

The human right to political participation
Peter, Fabienne. (2013) The human right to political participation. Journal of Ethics and Social Philosophy, Vol.7 (No.2). pp. 2-16. ISSN 1559-3061

In recent developments in political and legal philosophy, there is a tendency to endorse minimalist lists of human rights which do not include a right to political participation. Against such tendencies, I shall argue that the right to political participation, understood as distinct from a right to democracy, should have a place even on minimalist lists. In addition, I shall defend the need to extend the right to political participation to include participation not just in national, but also in international and global governance processes. The argument will be based on a cosmopolitan conception of political legitimacy and on a political conception of human rights that is normatively anchored in legitimacy. The central claim of my paper is that a right to political participation is necessary – but not sufficient – for political legitimacy in the global realm.
