allright...do they have only 1.5 hours to complete the assignment too? i've tried having them choose an element and design a poster for a classroom...they could go for collage or painting...or both...they could have examples in real life,...
>>> firstname.lastname@example.com 04/09/02 08:10PM >>> One year my Intro to Art class made an accordion book, with a theme, each page emphasized an element of design, they could paint, draw, collage, whatever medium they wanted. On the back side of the accordion book they typed and printed the word and definition. They produced some very original, beautiful books.

Hi Everyone, Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. I just started my placement in high school and I have to teach the elements of art, (line, shape, value, texture, space color, form) to the 9th grade class. I have one class period, 1 1/2 hours, for each lesson. That includes instruction and working time. Seems like a such a short time for something so important! Any and all help with lesson plan ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Colette

Summary: A FAMILY OF RECTANGULAR MIXED ELEMENTS WITH A CONTINUOUS FLUX FOR SECOND ORDER ELLIPTIC PROBLEMS TODD ARBOGAST AND MARY F. WHEELER SIAM J. NUMER. ANAL. c 2005 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics Vol. 42, No. 5, pp. 1914Ł1931 Abstract. We present a family of mixed finite element spaces for second order elliptic equations in two and three space dimensions. Our spaces approximate the vector flux by a continuous function. Our spaces generalize certain spaces used for approximation of Stokes problems. The finite element method incorporates projections of the Dirichlet data and certain low order terms. The method is locally conservative on the average. Suboptimal convergence is proven and demonstrated numerically. The key result is to construct a flux -projection operator that is bounded in the Sobolev space H1, preserves a projection of the divergence, and approximates optimally. Moreover, the corresponding RaviartŁThomas flux preserving -projection operator is an L2-projection when restricted to this family of spaces. Key words. mixed finite element method, continuous flux, elliptic equation, error estimates AMS subject classifications. 65N15, 65N30, 35J20 DOI. 10.1137/S0036142903435247 1. Introduction. Mixed finite element methods have been used effectively to solve many problems, including second order elliptic problems [10, 15, 31, 34]. Both

One child improperly restrained in a back seat died and six others were injured Tuesday in a two-vehicle crash on Interstate 69 just south of Daleville.
The accident occurred about 11:45 a.m. when a Dodge Ram pickup truck tried to merge into the right lane traveling north. Indiana State Police trooper Eric Treon witnessed the truck collide with a Chrysler 300, which had come to a stop on the interstate at the time.
Three passengers in the car were trapped, and Tavionna Ford, 4, of Indianapolis and a passenger in the car, died. She was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at IU Health Ball ...

In this well-written Los Angeles Times account of the final convoy, a name familiar to Oregonians pops up: Jacob Simpson.
This time he promised he would bring all his men home. "But not everyone came home."
They were stationed in Tall Afar in northern Iraq, a nexus for armed groups coming in from Syria. His unit had been assigned to guard a hospital. They were resting between patrols when one of his men walked down the hall to the bathroom. Sgt. Jacob Simpson. A large explosion shook their room and they laughed, thinking it was nothing. A medic walked into the hallway and shouted, "Simpson is dead!"
Afterward, he kept replaying Simpson's death. "It's one of those things. If I had kept him in the room a little longer, he wouldn't have died. It was one of those random one-in-a-million shots."
Jacob's funeral is one of the ones that sticks with me the most. I'll never forget the quotes I collected from two of his friends:
"He had such integrity," said Kerry Rose Cowan, who got to know him
in Ashland. "You could trust him with a secret. But you might not be able to trust him to watch your beer."

I had cloned the int HD to an ext one, and all was successful. Then clean installed over Tiger to Leopard (not snow) to the int HD, followed by all of the necessary updates. Following this, I began migration from the external HD to internal (total of 180gigs), during this process I plugged in my iphone to get that working as I needed this system update (leopard 10.6.1) to get it to work. My ext HD suddenly came up with an error when I safely removed the iphone 4.
Now I am unable to get into the ext HD at all - I cannot see it anywhere but in disk utility. I have tried to repair it, though this is the message I am left with: Verify and Repair volume "disk1s3" Checking Journaled HFS Plus volume. Invalid record structure Invalid record count Catalog file entry not found for extent Volume check failed. Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed So, following research online, I downloaded Diskwarrior to repair, though that seems to hang for several hours without doing anything at all and not even seeing any files whatsoever (3 hours). Heeeelp, any suggestions, please, this is urgent as I have all my work emails, itunes, photo's and work docs on there. I am lost without all of this. Many thanks! |

Polyphony Digital's Gran Turismo 5 made its first E3 showing in a couple of years today at Sony's big press conference. Below we've embedded the glorious hi-res trailer, which runs for a grand total of 1:52; driving fans will not want to miss this.
There's still no firm release date for the game, which remains one of the bigger PlayStation 3-exclusive titles known to be in development.
Bryn says: I've usually appreciated the Gran Turismo series from afar, as I prefer my racing games to have a little less realism and a lot more turboing, jumping and crashing. However, I think after watching the new E3 trailer, I'm sold.
If only the game had real-time deformation, I'd be 100 percent onboard.

Democratic lawmakers are joining the chorus of Americans asking how slumping banks could hand out executive bonuses during the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.
Following a letter from Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio), House Oversight and Government Reform Committee chairman Henry Waxman (D-Calif.), has opened an investigation into the matter, according to a release from his office.
In letters to the heads of nine major U.S. banks getting propped up with billions of taxpayer dollars, Waxman said he "question[s] the appropriateness of depleting the capital that taxpayers just injected into the banks through the payment of billions of dollars in bonuses, especially after one of the financial industry's worst years on record."
Those banks have spent or set aside $108 billion to pay out bonuses to top executives, Waxman said, referencing the firms' public filings.
The bonuses would reportedly range from around $100,000 for a lower-level employee to over $1 million for senior employees. Experts have said the payouts will be plumper than they would have been in such a disastrous year because of the taxpayer money flowing into the institutions.
Financial personnel experts have said the bonuses were necessary to retain top talent. Last week, House Financial Services Committee chairman Barney Frank (D-Mass.), called for a moratorium on executive bonuses. "If nobody gave them, there wouldn't be a competitive aspect," he told Bloomberg News.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., has also called for a ban on executive bonuses at the banks.
In his letters to Bank of America, Bank of New York Mellon, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Merrill Lynch & Co., Morgan Stanley, State Street Corporation, Wells Fargo & Company, and Goldman Sachs, Waxman requested compensation data and bonus policies for the past three years.
"We look forward to cooperating with Chairman Waxman's request," said a spokesperson for Goldman Sachs. In a statement, Citibank said it "will adhere to the requirements in the government program including restrictions on executive compensation." Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley and Bank of New York Mellon declined to comment on the letter. JP Morgan Chase and State Street did not respond to requests for comment.

Mike Parker Pearson
Mike Parker Pearson | |
Born | Michael Parker Pearson 26 June 1957 |
Nationality | British |
Other names | Michael Parker Pearson |
Alma mater | University of Southampton, King's College, Cambridge |
Occupation | Archaeologist |
Known for | Stonehenge Riverside Project |
Michael 'Mike' Parker Pearson, FSA, FSA Scot (born 26 June 1957)[1] is an English archaeologist specialising in the study of the Neolithic British Isles, Madagascar and the archaeology of death and burial. A professor at the UCL Institute of Archaeology, he previously worked for 25 years as a professor at the University of Sheffield in England, and was the director of the Stonehenge Riverside Project.[2] A prolific author, he has also written a variety of books on the subject.
Parker Pearson gained his BA in archaeology from Southampton University in 1979. Supervised by Ian Hodder as a post-graduate at Cambridge, Parker Pearson was a contemporary of Sheena Crawford, Daniel Miller, Henrietta Moore, Christopher Tilley and Alice Welbourn; these students were influenced by Hodder's ideas, then a pioneering part of the post-processualist current within archaeological theory. He went on to gain his PhD at the University of Cambridge in 1985, producing a thesis on burials and bog bodies in Iron Age Denmark.
A media personality, Parker Pearson has appeared several times in the Channel 4 show Time Team in particular in one looking at the excavation of Durrington Walls. He also appeared in the National Geographic Channel documentary Stonehenge Decoded, along with the PBS programme "NOVA: Secrets of Stonehenge".[3]
Early life: 1957–1985[edit]
Parker Pearson was born in 1957.[4] He would later inform interviewers that he first took an interest in the past when searching for fossils in his father's driveway gravel aged 4, extending that interest into the human past aged 6 when he read a library book entitled Fun with Archaeology.[5] Deciding to study the subject at the undergraduate level, he attended the University of Southampton, attaining a first class BA with honours in Archaeology in 1979.[6]
Parker Pearson became interested in Marxism, the socio-economic and political theory developed in the mid-19th century by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. In the 1984 anthology Ideology, Power and Prehistory, edited by Daniel Miller and Christopher Tilley, Parker Pearson published a paper in which he examined the pre-state societies of Jutland from a Marxist perspective. At the start of this paper, he noted that it had repurcussions for Marxism in that its findings discerned "a certain blurring between capitalism and non-capitalism."[7] He obtained his PhD from King's College, University of Cambridge in 1985, for a thesis which he had titled "Death, society and social change: the Iron Age of southern Jutland 200 BC – 600 AD" in which he discussed what was known about the bog bodies of Denmark; it would remain unpublished.[6][8][9]
Early career: 1985–2003[edit]
From 1984 through to 1990, Parker Pearson worked as an Inspector of Monuments for English Heritage,[6] and in 1989 he received membership to the Institute for Archaeologists.[6] In 1990, he secured an academic teaching position at the Department of Archaeology at the University of Sheffield, where he would work for the next 21 years.[6] In 1991 he was admitted as a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London, and in 1996 then became a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland.[6]
Stonehenge Riverside Project and UCL: 2003–present[edit]
From 2003 through to 2009, Parker Pearson directed the Stonehenge Riverside Project. The project garnered three major archaeological awards: the Andante Travel Archaeology Award (2008), the Royal Society of Northern Antiquaries Award (2009), and the UK Archaeological Research Project of the Year (2010).[6] His work in leading the project also led to Parker Pearson being personally awarded the UK Archaeologist of the Year award in 2010.[6]
Parker Pearson and his team of researchers played a key role in the discovery of a new henge site along the River Avon that links to Stonehenge. This new site was uncovered through excavation during the Stonehenge Riverside Project and was given the name "Bluestonehenge" or "Bluehenge" because traces of bluestones were found during the excavation.
From 2006 through to 2009, he served as the Vice-President of the Prehistoric Society.[6] Interacting with various parts of the media, Parker Pearson has published articles in a variety of different sources, such as on the BBC website,[9] has given interviews to groups such as Pagans for Archaeology[5] and most recently discussed his career in an interview with Papers from the Institute of Archaeology.[10]
In 2012, Parker Pearson left the University of Sheffield and began teaching at the Institute of Archaeology, University College London, as Professor of British Later Prehistory.[6]

COLUMBIA — Ryan Ferguson's attorneys will be back in court in September, arguing his case before three judges at the Missouri Western District Court of Appeals.
The panel of judges will then decide whether to grant Ferguson's petition for freedom, Clerk of Court Terence Lord said.
Ferguson is serving 40 years in prison for murdering Columbia Daily Tribune sports editor Kent Heitholt in the Tribune parking lot in 2001. Since then he's filed more than a dozen attempts to overturn his conviction and has always maintained his innocence.
For a recent history of Ferguson's appeals, click here.
His attorney Kathleen Zellner said this development was "very good" for his case.
"They are taking the case seriously enough that they want to have an oral argument," she said. "Typically with a habeas action it would … just be passed on to the Missouri Supreme Court. It's excellent that they're not."
Attorney General Chris Koster's office declined to comment. In court documents, Koster said Zellner coerced witnesses, lacked new evidence and followed incorrect legal procedure.
In April, the Court of Appeals ordered Koster to file a fuller argument for why Ferguson should be kept in prison.
Ferguson's father Bill Ferguson said that sent a "strong message" that the state's argument was faulty.
"Now we're getting an oral argument," he said.
The state's two eyewitnesses, Jerry Trump and Charles Erickson, recanted last year during a hearing in Jefferson City. But that hearing didn't win freedom for Ferguson because Cole County judge Daniel Green denied his petition later that year. Ferguson still has a request pending in the governor's office for a pardon.
Oral argument will take place Sept. 10. Zellner said Ferguson would not be present.
Supervising editor is Katie Moritz.

Effects of the optical system on the output from wavefront coding masks |
Optics Express, Vol. 19, Issue 18, pp. 17677-17682 (2011)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (719 KB)
We show that the output from wavefront coding systems depends critically upon the optical imaging system. Our analysis is based on results using nondiffracting accelerated Airy beams. We review the similarities and critical differences between various optical systems and show computational results. We suggest new directions for improving the performance of these wavefront coding masks.

STR Global: 2012 Americas Hotel Rate Growth Outpaces Rest Of World
Pegasus: GDS Hotel Data Portends Sustained Corporate Travel Demand
PwC: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Paris To Lead Europe ADR Growth
STR Global: November Hotel Rates Rise Outside Of Middle East/Africa
September Hotel Rates, Occupancy Rise In Americas, Mixed Elsewhere
January 30, 2013 - 10:30 AM ET
By Michael B. Baker
Los Angeles - Hotel rates should continue to increase during the next four years, primarily as a means to keep pace with rising costs, according to lodging executives speaking here last week at the Americas Lodging Investment Summit.
"Everybody I've spoken to thinks there's this gradual, ascending marketplace," Mark Laport, president and CEO of Concord Hospitality Enterprise, told BTN. "We're looking at 1 percent growth in supply [this year], which is still on the low side, and demand is increasing. This is not slam-dunk, killer business, but most of us think we're in for decent times in 2013, 2014, 2015 and even 2016." Concord manages more than 90 hotels, largely select-service and upper upscale properties, across the United States and Canada.
Speaking during an ALIS roundtable, Choice Hotels International president and CEO Stephen Joyce offered a similar sentiment. "Barring something unforeseen, we're showing a good year—nothing spectacular, but another strong year," he said.
Analysts' data presented at the conference backed up those projections. U.S. hotel demand in December reached 91.7 million nights, a record for any month, according to STR chairman and co-founder Randy Smith. Demand growth has been fairly solid across hotel tiers, and rate growth began to outpace occupancy growth about six months ago, he said.
PKF Consulting executive vice president Mark Woodworth said average daily rate growth would be twice the long-term average "as far out as we can see. Not until 2017 can we see a point where the current cycle peaks."
On a market-level basis, rate trends will be more mixed, according to Noble Investment Group CEO Mitesh Shah. Dallas, for example, did not grow as expected in 2012, he said.
Overall, given recent rate increases, hoteliers said they now are nearing price levels that peaked before the recession.
"Part of the reason it's getting a little bit better is that it was so bad before," said Gerald Chase, president and COO of New Castle Hotels & Resorts. "Just this year we'll break the ADR from 2007, and we've been having cost escalation."
Some of the cost pressure is coming from regulation, including a 2010 U.S. Department of Justice ruling, for example, that requires hotels to provide access to their swimming pools for people with disabilities. Distribution costs also are a concern, not just due to existing online travel agencies but also the unknown impact of future new entrants.
"There's lots of nontraditional competition that's going to come to bear over the next couple of years: Apple, Google, Microsoft or whoever," said Joyce, adding that distribution has been Choice's biggest focus during the past three years. "What I fear most is being unprepared and getting caught by surprise."
Besides trying to push rates higher, Noble's Shah said hoteliers would be reviewing services and amenities carefully to maximize profitability.
"Brands need to have a chief cost containment officer," he said. "Do we need these concierge lines? Who uses them? Who's using the indoor pools? There are a lot of important decisions we have to make, and we can't keep adding costs to our business."

With most All-in-one you find the monitor and CPU attached together without the keyboard and mouse. At cybernetman they do things a little differently. They have a PC that is inside a keyboard. Click Here
At first glance you might mistake it for a laptop that is missing its monitor but in a a weird way that is exactly what it is, a laptop without the monitor.
According the description:-
This new generation All-in-One PC in a keyboard takes up far less space than a traditional PC, and its ease of deployment makes it simple to install or to move to different workstations. Simply plug in a monitor and plug the power cord into an outlet. Speaking of power, the ZPC-9100™ uses less of it, thanks to its 150-watt power supply. Now, power it up, and let the Pentium 4-powered ZPC-9100™ handle all of your PC workflow.

text: Vulnerability phpnuke Affected phpnuke Description Joao Gouveia found following. There is yet another security flaw with the new phpnuke version. Look here (quote opendir.php): (...) $REQUEST_URI = strip_tags($REQUEST_URI); $res = explode("$PHP_SELF?", $REQUEST_URI); $odp_cat = $res[1]; if (substr($odp_cat,0,1) == "/") $odp_cat = substr($odp_cat,1); (define $requesturl) (...) So, you're defining $requesturl based on something like /folder/page just after the call to opendir.php. This is no good, one can simply just don't suply a '/' as the first argument, thus allowing to assign our own $requesturl. Example: http://www.phpnuke.org/opendir.php?requesturl=/etc/passwd You can actually insert any URL instead of "/etc/passwd" and have it read. Depending on the server's configuration, this could be abused to execute PHP code, probably, and from that, any UNIX shell command. The author obviously doesn't care about security. He makes it perfectly clear in the installation instructions: "3) In order to use the File Manager, please be sure to chmod 666 ALL files and 777 ALL directories. 4) Also, to activate Headlines you "need" to chmod 777 the "cache" directory, otherwise headlines won't work." It's a nice piece of software, otherwise. Just have to be careful about which part to use.. Solution This problem is known and fixed by the author and a patched opendir.php file have been made availible for download from the phpnuke home site. Patched opendir.php: http://www.phpnuke.org/download.php?op=mydown&did=64

She'll be in need of a stiff drink after reading this.
Outspoken Real Housewives of Orange County star Vicki Gunvalson is facing, yet again, a multi-million dollar lawsuit over her contentious "Vicki's Vodka" product after her disgruntled business partner filed a new lawsuit in Nevada, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
Robert Williamson III, a professional poker player who went into business with the Bravo reality star in 2012 to produce distilled flavored vodka, filed the suit against the 51-year-old Bravo star on Friday, alleging she breached a settlement agreement the pair had hatched to end his initial litigation against her.
Williamson is also alleging Gunvalson committed fraud, civil conspiracy, breach of contract, breach of covenant of good faith dealings, misrepresented and unjustly enriched herself and intentionally inflicted emotional distress on him.

Gunvalson's on-again, off-again boyfriend Brooks Ayers was also named in the latest suit.
He is facing, independently of his reality star girlfriend, claims of defamation and extortion.
RadarOnline.com broke the story: Gunvalson gifted 16.67 percent of the Vicki's Vodka business to Ayers without the knowledge of her business partner Williamson, it's claimed, who then sold it back to Williamson for $50 thousand because he supposedly eeded the money for unpaid IRS and child support obligations.
Despite the deal, Gunvalson later "demanded" ownership be returned to a 50-50 split between them, it's alleged.
PHOTOS: Vicki Gunvalson Served With Lawsuit While In Las Vegas
In his latest lawsuit, Williamson restated much of his previous position but revealed that Gunvalson had approached him in July and indicated that she wanted to settle the litigation and move forward with their business plans.
"During the weekend of July 12, Vicki and RW III met, without counsel, for extensive meetings and negotiations," the lawsuit said.
A settlement agreement was reached and the Bravolebrity signed it on July 15.
"Following the execution of the agreement, RW III caused Vicki to be dismissed without prejudice for certain pending litigation pursuant to the settlement agreement," the lawsuit stated.

But, "almost immediately following the dismissal of Vicki from the federal litigation, Vicki disregarded the settlement agreement and breached the same.
"In addition to breaching the agreement following execution, Vicki made false statements and representations to induce RW III to enter into the settlement agreement. Vicki represented that she would in good faith abise by the settlement agreement and use her best efforts to make VV successful.
"In reality, Vicki had no intention of abiding by the terms of the settlement agreement and had merely used the entire exercise as a means to solve certain problems, including her dismissal from the federal litigation."
According to Williamson, by August 9, Gunvalson's lawyers began to send emails to "assert positions contrary to the settlement agreement."
PHOTOS: Punches! Hair Pulling & Drunken Battles! The 13 Nastiest Fights EVER On Real Housewives
He said Gunvalson and Ayers "conspired to work in concert to obtain money" from him and "deprive him of ownership interest" in the business.
The renewed legal focus on Ayers comes after he filed his own slander lawsuit against Williamson last month, claiming the poker pro went public with false allegations that he'd uncovered evidence detailing how Ayers planned to have him killed.
Williamson told the Las Vegas court he was also defamed, after Ayers told an associate he'd embezzled money from a charity.
According to Williamson, Ayers contacted a man named Doug Dreisbach, the organizer of an annual charity poker event, via telephone, in June and during that call, "Brooks represented to Doug that RW III is under investigation for embezzlement" and had "embezzled funds" from the organization.
PHOTOS: "Real Housewives": Best or Bust?
"When confronted about the fact that RW III does not have access to or handles funds for this entity, Brooks insisted that RW III found a way," the lawsuit said.
"There is no record of or possibility that RW III access any funds form DPC."
Williamson also alleged Ayers and others "devised and executed a plan to extort money" from him.
"Brooks devised this plan by using an acquaintance of RW III as a pawn," the lawsuit claimed.
PHOTOS: Reality TV's Hottest Stars
"The basis for the extortion was a false story wherein Brooks told RW III that (acquaintance) was going to tell RW III's wife that they were having an affair if RW III did not provide funds to (acquaintance).
"Initially, not knowing what to do, RW III gave Brooks the requested amount of funds."
But it turned out, Williamson said, that the acquaintance had not made the alleged threats and Ayers retained "a large portion of funds… for his own benefit."
"Eventually, RW III learned of the scheme and ceased making payments to Brooks," the lawsuit stated.

Other defendants in the lawsuit include Michael Nicholson, a Napa Valley, Calif., businessman who Williamson is suing for an array of claims, including misappropriation and conversion of funds.
A group of businesses including Cougar Juice Vodka, Sweetwaters Distillers, Stillwater Spirits and Woo Hoo Productions are also named as defendants.

Toon Star Gives Reason For Relegation Season
Jonas Gutierrez claims he knows why Newcastle were relegated two seasons ago. Jonas Gutierrez: "The difficulty of the relegation season was we had a lot of managers and a lot of injured players. "That is what made it really tough for all the team. "When you have a lot of players who are missing through injury it can become difficult – really, really bad. "But now we have a chance to do things right. "Chris Hughton has been in charge for a long time now and we know what he wants. "That is good. We are always happy to see Chris staying here because he believes in us and we believe in him. "For us, it is very important to have Chris as our manager."

One of the standout sets of the concert for many people. This was their third show in 24 hours, yet their energy and enthusiasm was vibrant. When you play over 100 shows a year, that's got to be insane!

Great set! Kevin's voice is MUCH more powerful live than his studio material suggests. Great seeing Josh Ramos come out and play when they did material from "The Storm."

The man is incredible. Personally, I think Neal Schon and the other egos in Journey were jealous of being upstaged by Jeff on a nightly basis, which is why they treated Jeff in the shitty way they did. Their loss. The duet of "Since You've Been Gone" with Joe Lynn Turner was a once-in-a-lifetime event.

Terrorism Finance, Business Associations, and the 'Incorporation Transparency Act'J. W. VerretGeorge Mason University School of Law June 30, 2010 Louisiana Law Review, Vol. 70, No. 3, pp. 857-910, Spring 2010 George Mason Law & Economics Research Paper No. 10-30 Abstract: Each year, two million corporations and limited liability companies are established in the United States. The process by which these entities are created has traditionally been governed under state law. The Senate is considering a bill introduced by Senator Levin requiring that states maintain an accurate and updated list of all beneficial owners of corporations and limited liability companies created in the state and make that list available to law enforcement and others by subpoena. In many states, these lists will become part of the states' public records similar to other business entities' formation documents. Business entities are created when formation documents are filed with a particular state. States require that business entities maintain updated contact information of an agent for service of process to facilitate litigation against a business entity, but, owing to the complexities of business ownership, states do not currently undertake the task of keeping an up-to-date list of all current owners of all business entities organized under their laws. In support of the Levin Bill, its proponents cite a handful of cases investigated by federal agencies that were later dropped because of difficulty determining beneficial ownership in the investigated entities as evidence for why the bill is vital to stopping terrorism financing. This article offers a unique analysis of the pattern of terrorism financing to reveal that the use of business entities would not be useful to financiers of terrorism. A proper analysis of the effects, costs, and potential constitutional challenges facing the Bill reveals it as little more than an empty gesture meant to generate the appearance of action.

"Fantasy Chick Lit- Entertaining Enough (SPOILERS)"
This book should actually be found under "fantasy" on audible. Three women fall completely backwards into fame, fortune, and amazing jobs. One woman actually breaks up with her celebrity fiance because another celebrity is pursuing her. Another woman has a famous movie director falling all over himself to date her. The story is basically three women who do absolutely nothing and find unbelievable success. It is disappointing because it really was well written and kept my interest so it had great potential. I will probably read other books from this author. But the story was just BAD.
Anyway perhaps one of the reasons it was so pleasant to listen to is that the narrator was AMAZING. She did a great Brazilian accent and hit the emotions of the women perfectly. I will probably look for other books with this narrator.
"She wasn't ready to talk about her ordeal"
The professional writer or whatever who helped Smart write this book. The way her story is written is terrible and shallow.
No I've read lots of personal accounts of true stories. Probably all were better than this one.
She wasn't so bad
This book is the "see spot run" of true crime.
She wasn't ready to talk about how she felt during her ordeal. Was she backed into a corner and had to produce something by a deadline? Skip the book and read the newspaper/police records of the crime and you'll get just as much out of it as you would have from the book.
"Omg this book is fantastic"
I honestly didn't want to stop listening. It almost brought me to tears at one point! Also learned a LOT about the Iranian Revolution that toppled the Shah. Hopefully audible has other books by this author!
"This is an amazing book!"
Amazing true life account of the Saudi princess and her life inside the kingdom. I never wanted to turn it off!
"Author tried way, way too hard"
Written linearally and clearly instead of jumping ahead in time, then back in time, then ahead a little further, then back again in an unfamiliar dramatic scenario, then adding new characters and then referring to the main (?) characters with only pronouns
Started out well, and I continued to enjoy through first jump forward in time. After that blaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Terrible. Author tried way too hard to make the story "interesting".
"Pretty good"
Pretty good story of an incarcerated innocent man and his 25 year fight to be cleared of charges. Didn't really get much into the details of prison life although there were some anecdotes. Like all of a sudden he's like "I had been locked up for 14 years" and you're like oh didn't we just talk about your trial? Anyway if you're interested in true crime this is a great book for you.
"Really great listen"
If you're at all interested in the Amanda Knox case this book is for you. Sollecito recounts his time in prison along with before and after the indictment.
"This book is great!!"
The characters were so well developed and the imagery he created of North Korea was amazing. Believable storyline and kept my interest up until the very end.
Great book! Highly recommend.
"Real fail here."
It is cliche, predictable, and lacks any sort of substance or plot. Basically a string of paranormal experiences with the woman screaming over and over and over. You keep hoping to hear some backstory or character development but it just never happens. How on earth was this a "NYT best seller"? This author took a boring title, threw together a male and female for the ol' "young couple in a new house", and just picked scary situations from different movies for them to be in. OMG thank goodness for the audible no questions asked return policy.
The paranormal situations in some cases were actually interesting! Why on earth didn't he develop the characters or storyline? Could have been a great haunted house story despite the cliches.
It didn't sound like the narrator could have been in any way one of the characters from the book. It sounded like grandma reading you a bedtime story.
Why did this book happen
"Why was there no story?"
Great characters who do nothing
Too bad. Well written for what it was but just became dull after a little while with nothing happening.
"Loved it!!"
Yes- the book is very engaging
Really great story- liked how different actors voiced different characters rather than one actor trying to do all the voices. Disappointed that there are no other books written by this author. Really grabs you from the very first paragraph up through the end.

U.S. Mormon missionaries to be banned from Switzerland
December 14, 2010
source: Deseret News
MR says: Starting in 2012, only missionaries from the EU will be allowed to serve in Switzerland.
The makeup of LDS Church missionaries serving in Switzerland may drastically change by 2012, with immigration policy there prohibiting most foreign missionaries beginning that year.As currently constituted and interpreted, the policy will ban all missionaries coming from the United States, with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints having sent its representatives from the U.S. to the central European nation for a century and a half.
The immigration policy would allow missionaries from European Union nations. Switzerland is not a EU member, although it has signed numerous bilateral treaties over the years with the European Union, including the immigration agreement.
Read the rest of this story at deseretnews.com
Comments 5 comments
All worthy Elders born in Switzerland who wish to serve a mission should do so in the United States.
I wonder if this will apply to Muslims also? Probably not, and England will be next.
O grande problema é que se isso virar moda teremos muitos problemas em estabelecer o reino (Our great problem will be if every nations do the same we will have troubles in stablish the kindon):´-(
Never fear. Heavenly Father is behind us. If the door of the small country of Switzerland closes, a new door of the Giant China may open. ALL IS WELL.
Similar immigration practices are occuring in New Zealand. We need to remember the Lord's plan. There are many faithful Saints inside & outside that are praying for members, government officials & Area Presidencies to resolve these recent issues. But if not, remeber that every member is a missionary and the promises available to every worthy member. D&C 4.

My adopted child at 13 is behind in school.
My daughter at 13 is behind in school. She is supposed to be going in the 8th grade and she still doesn't know her division or how to write faster with paragraphs or even read at a regular rate. I don't want to see her kept back but need any suggestions. A lot of her being behind was because of her adoption. Where she is from the education is nothing like ours but she likes to learn.

Comments about Blood Drip Light String:
These look great! They fit in well with our zombies and ghouls out front. We put them over the top part of the font door. They are bigger than what I expected! The only thing is there are maybe only 8 or 9 of them and the wire is not too long. We only needed them for over the door thought so it was fine. They are also not too bright during the day, as expected, but look awesome at night! = )

Something to please no one
By Phil Lawler (bio - articles ) | Mar 14, 2004
On Thursday, the Massachusetts legislature gave tentative approval to a constituational amendment that would bar same-sex "marriage," but give same-sex "civil unions" all the privileges of marriage.
On Friday, newspapers reported that the measure was a victory for proponents of traditional marriage. They told us that the gay-rights lobby was terribly unhappy with the amendment.
On Saturday, reporters gradually awoke to the fact that pro-family advocates, too, hate this proposal-- since it allows gay "marriage" in everything but name.
Sunday at last, the Boston Globe put two and two together, and realized that nobody likes this amendment.
So you ask yourself: How did a majority of legislators support a measure that has no public backing? The answer to that one is easy: They're gutless, and they thought by temporizing they could dodge the issue entirely.
But then comes a second question: Why didn't the media notice, until days after the vote, that this proposed amendment is a dud? Then you realize: The media can't grasp why some people defend marriage and the family. It's all foreign territory to the reporters; they don't know the people and they don't know the terrain.
If you sent an American reporter to cover an election campaign in, say, Turkmenistan, you'd realize that he would trouble understanding the language, the customs, the political rivalries, the way of life there. If you send a typical American reporter out to cover a story involving marriage, children, and normal family life, you're likely to have the same problem. It's not quite so obvious, since they do speak the same language, but sometimes-- like this week-- the truth becomes apparent.

The single change the programmer would have to make in this case is to add a new error case that is not being handled. In which case the compiler is being nice and telling you all the places where you need to think about how to handle this new error case. The biggest problems I see is that there are a number of places in Ocaml where the programmer still has to spell out the types of things- .mli files being the obvious example. -- "Usenet is like a herd of performing elephants with diarrhea -- massive, difficult to redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining, and a source of mind-boggling amounts of excrement when you least expect it." - Gene Spafford Brian ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail email@example.com Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
