I heard about that. That was a rumor that was proven false quite a while ago. I believe someone sent an Animal Crossing fan site an article that was either fake or from an unreliable source... The site confirmed it was fake.Originally Posted by mushroomedmario

HOUSTON -- Carl Walden and his wife Kanidtha weren t home when thieves broke into their south Houston home.
When I came home I saw the garage was opened, said Kanidtha.
It could have been a lot worse, said Carl.
The thieves kicked through the back door and ransacked the place, stealing televisions, jewelry, laptop computers and iPads.
So I walked back to the car and I called 911 around 11:15, said Kanidtha.
But after waiting for more than two hours for police to show up, the Waldens took matters into their own hands.
We used the Find My iPhone app and Google Earth, said Kanidtha.
That s when Carl, who has a concealed weapons permit, loaded his guns and headed out.
You can t always rely on someone else, said Carl.
Kanidtha pleaded with him to stay.
I said no don't go, wait for the police, said Kanidtha. He said, 'I'm not going to wait for the police. I'm leaving.'
When Carl arrived at the apartment complex, he called the Texas City Police. They managed to recover the stolen goods and arrested two suspected thieves.
Carl is an offshore oil man and has never worked in law enforcement, but he had a stern warning for anyone who might try something like this again.
Just be known that if you get in my house, you can run but you can't hide from me, said Carl. I'll find you somehow.

3dforce4 MX440-8X going to vesa
1 Attachment(s)
My 3DForce4 MX440-8X card from Jaton Corp. is giving me problems when configuring.
My system is a plain vanilla Redhat 8.0 Workstation install, with kernel v. 2.4.20 and Xfree86 v. 2.2.1 (Newest updates with redhats up2date).
The system itself is AMD Athlon 1900+.
The system is not detecting the card but is returning bogus information a couple of times before selecting a generic VESA driver.
I have noticed there is a kernel update to version 2.4.18 on the Nvidia site, but will this work also for 2.4.20 - Or will I need to install 2.4.18 before using the update? (What will btw. happen if I update the kernel from up2date in the future?)
Attached are my configuration and log files.
Hope you can help!
Just want to add that I tried to use the source package, and it starts by complains about kernel headers. It ends with
nvnet.c:1355: warning: implicit declaration of function `netif_device_attach'nvnet.c: At top level:
nvnet.c:99: storage size of `nvnet_driver' isn't known
make[1]: *** [nvnet.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/nforce/nvnet'
make: *** [nvnet_make] Error 2
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.46396 (%build)
I used the following command as rpm --rebuild is not recognized anymore:
rpmbuild --rebuild NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0261.src.rpm
Problem resolved - monitor error, not graphics card
The problem was not the graphics card at all. The error I experienced was due to the monitor, and was resolved by changing it with another one.
The original monitor was not bad, and is now working well on another computer.
The monitor problem was discovered when changing the graphics card with another, which got correctly detected at startup and still had the exact same lines on the screen...

Himachal Pradesh has registered a voter turnout of 73.92% in the Nov 4 assembly elections instead of 75% as reported earlier, the Election Commission (EC) said here Tuesday, scaling down the figures after final checkup.
Earlier, the EC had said the voter turnout was at a record high of around 75%.
"The poll percentage in all (68) assembly constituencies in the state was registered at 73.92%," a statement from the Election Commission said.
The maximum turnout was in Sirmaur district (79.86%), followed by Kullu (78.86%), Solan (77.65%), Chamba (75.63%) and Mandi (75.59%).
The state's largest district, Kangra, with the maximum number of 15 seats, saw 71.80 percent polling.
Hamirpur, the home district of Chief Minister Prem Kumar Dhumal, recorded 69.23% voting, the second-lowest in the state after Shimla (69.10%).
The far-off districts of Kinnaur and Lahaul-Spiti, where the minimum temperatures have dipped below the freezing point, also registered 73.55% and 74.97% voter turnout.
In the 2007 assembly polls, the voting percentage was 71.61 while in 2003 it was 74.51.
In the 1998 polls, the voter turnout was 71.23% while in 1993 it was 71.50. In 1990, it was 67.76%.
A record number of 459 candidates, including 36 women, were in the fray.
The EC set up 7,253 polling stations for 4,533,713 electors, including 2,322,264 men. A total of 3,351,411 voters cast votes.
The total electorates included three eunuchs but nobody exercised franchise.
The main contest was between the Congress and the ruling BJP.
The election result would be out Dec 20.
In 2007, the BJP won 41 seats, the Congress 23, the BSP one and independents three. The lone BSP legislator later joined the BJP.

Go see Cashner, not Padres hitters
Go to Petco Park to see Andrew Cashner pitch on Friday night.
Otherwise, don't complain when the Padres say they can't afford him in a couple years.
You don't want to watch an inept offense, that's understandable. Make the Padres earn your buck with some bats.
But save your protest for Saturday. Or hold out on a weeknight.
Friday is a Cashner Day. This is something to cherish.
Not only does Cashner deserve for people to come and cheer on his brand of passionate brilliance, but we need to let the people who write the Padres checks know we appreciate this kind of awesome. The team has a guy people should pay to see. The team should pay to keep that guy. Let's make sure there is no doubt we want them to do so.
Maybe bring a sign:
Here to see Cashner no-hitter . . . and no hitters
Or something like that.
Now, Cashner has been more than mortal in losing two straight, allowing eight earned runs in 12 innings. Even so, he brings a 2.68 ERA into Friday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. And his ERA in three starts at Petco is 0.81 (two runs in 22 1/3 innings).
This is the very type of game when a team and its fan base must be most grateful to have a dominant pitcher. With an Ambien offense continuing to snore, it's time for a stopper to take the mound to halt a two-game skid and begin a 10-game homestand with a good feeling.
Worry about what ails this team another day.
There is plenty to worry about and plenty of time to worry about it.
If you like offense, soccer might be more your game than baseball as the Padres play it.
Look, the Padres are in many ways easy to root for, even as they're frustrating to watch. They do find a way almost as often as not, at least so far.
But their 13-16 record through the season's first month is both impressive (given their MLB-worst 2.65 runs per game) and oppressive (given their staff ERA of 3.26, ninth-best in the majors).
The problem with being scrappy to the extent the Padres are is that scrappiness' effectiveness wanes.
The Padres win a game on a wild pitch and know that's not happening every night. They get the winning run on a single, a hit batter, a walk and another single and feel fortunate. They score two unearned runs with one hit in the eighth and hold on, and they're left wondering what it could possibly take for them to win the next day.
They're 11-8 in games decided by two runs or less. That's the most such games in the majors, and it's unsustainable.
The Padres' 15 home runs are third-fewest in the majors. Those bombs have been hit by 10 different players, not a good thing. There is no one to count on to clear the bases.
Heck, there is hardly anyone to count on to advance runners.

This August, Monroe will be asked to pass judgment on our historical museum and decide if we are willing to keep its doors open for the next 10 years.
Rough economic downturns have made it difficult for all of us, and the museum has suffered, too. The staff does its best to run on only $300,000 a year, so our museum is staffed primarily by volunteers and can only afford to be open Wednesday through Saturday. Even the popular Lantern Tours may be canceled due to lack of funds. The millage this August could change all of that.
If passed, the millage will give the historical museum $569,000 a year. The average homeowner will only be asked to pay $5 a year to reach this goal. From this, the museum will be able to hire four or more full-time employees and stay open for more hours.
Since the position of director was eliminated last year, the museum is trying to run with only two full time employees: archivist Chris Kull and Lynn Reaume. While their work is important, imagine a school trying to function without a principal, or an office without a boss.
Having a museum that isn't limited to four days a week would be beneficial for all of us. We could visit whenever we have time, instead of trying to fit our hectic schedules into the museum's small window of opportunity.
Teachers, too, will have more flexibility in taking their students on field trips to the museum or even the 1812 battlefield.
And for teachers in financially distressed districts, the museum is considering using the millage to help pay for transportation fees — in other words, for the bus driver and the gas needed to get the students to their destination. Just think of what a great incentive this would be.
The museum is our history and it should be protected and honored by our citizens. The artifacts housed in the museum show us our history and if this millage is not passed, these valuable pieces of our past could be lost forever. We would certainly not see them again. These pieces are a part of who we are and where we've come from, and it should not be taken away from us.
On Aug. 7, I will be voting for the museum. I hope everyone else will do the same.

all this traveling and fundraising and he's NOT running for president? HMMMMMMMMM?Hide replies
When he was MKE county exec he spent a lot of his time campaigning for governor, that is, when his MKE county exec staff were not doing it for him.
Interesting that he doesn't give the same talks here that he gives in other states. After all, it was here that he balanced the budget ($48.2 billion state debt), cut spending (budgets at 17% or 18% above that of Governor Doyle), cut everyone's state income tax (by $10 for someone with $10,000 of taxable income), removed all non-fiscal policies from the budget ( except for the 45 or more in the previous budget and the 58 in the proposed budget), improved schools (by removing $800 million from their budgets), and helped all teachers (by making it easier to get rid of all those with experience). Could it be that he knows at least some of the things that he has done?Hide replies
so what does he say here that is different?
He speaks lies.
250,000 jobs!
To paraphrase a line from the old western movies: Walker speak with forked tongue.
Who cares what he is running for. He should be running the government in Wisconsin.
He's a jerk who can't even lead this state.
I'm sure his supporters are so glad they voted for him so that the state can pay for the travelathon.Hide replies
Those that voted for him probably regret it now. Their vanity prevents them from admitting the error of their ways.
NOPE-they love him still.
What a joke- he dumps this sinful budget in our laps and takes off to stroke his ego.
Everyone should stop paying attention to Walker; it only feeds his ego. All of his nasty legislation will pass no matter what, so ignore him and vote for a new governor in 2014.Hide replies
So just lay down and give up - no way man.
Weber, I dislike him as much as ever, but we need to wait him out and let him destroy himself. His policies aren't working, and yes, he lies and says just the opposite to us and the rest of the country, but he will not be able to hide his failures forever. He has defined himself as someone who angers progressives, and he really enjoys doing so. He is like a reality show star that feeds on attention. Take away the attention, and he deflates.
warrior-he is esteemedby the far right. By giving big corpd big tax breaks, and making sure the middle class loses out on a living wage (formerly a given) he has been one of many Republicans who have transferred responsibility to the Federal Gov. Furthermore by making sure that many who previously had health care, and giving that money to companies with out of state and off shore accounst-he has insured more tax cuts to the fed,
Time to stuff more dollars in Scooter's g-string.
Does King Walker ever spend anytime in Wisconsin anymore? The only business he is doing is for the rich and his boss, the Koch brothers. Wake up people, King Walker does not walk on water!
Does King Walker ever spend anytime in Wisconsin anymore? The only business he is doing is for the rich and his boss, the Koch brothers. Wake up people, King Walker does not walk on water!
I want a detailed accounting of what the Wisconsin taxpayers are paying in terms of this jerks travel and security detail. All of you Walker lovers MUST know that his security detail is TRIPLE the size of Jim Doyle's. But then Doyle never has SO many enemies. This dolt isn't fit to be anything. He is reckless and sociopathic.
Three primary reasons Walker would not stand a chance in a Presidential election:
1. The country will not be as stupid as Wisconsin in electing a college drop out.
2. The word will spread that he has done nothing and he is not bold. He inherited a legislative monopoly with a conservative judiciary - a 5th grader if of legal age, could do every thing Walker did.
3. The rest of America is not a bunch of bigoted old White men from Waukesha.

(shade 01) I love this product. I was a bit wary at first because this shade is a light pink colour far darker and rosier than my skin but it blends in perfectly.
The coverage is fairly light (similar to what you would get with a liquid foundation) and the light reflection is quite subtle but I think the two work together really well. I haven't noticed it settling into lines though I only use a tiny bit and blend it. It lasts a decent length of time though I'd probably have to touch it up if I was going out after work. It photographs much better than touche eclat.
It gets rid of dark shadows around your eyes and my light dark circles brilliantly though if I haven't had enough sleep I would recommend using another concealer below this to provide a bit more coverage.
I love the packaging - pens rule! And you can take them on planes with you so you don't look exhausted when you land. I'd buy it again though it's not 5 stars because I'd love it to be just a little more pigmented.

(shade 04) It's a nice concealer to make areas on the face lighter. It's not best for under eyes though, but to make areas on the face look a bit lighter such as around the mouth on odd occasions when it looks a bit darker than the rest of the face. It's really good for that but cannot be used on it own, but when applied on top of foundation this will allow a better coverage of the concealer to work on.

I purchased this concealer in Neutral Fair (04) and I wanted to like it but I don't. I like illuminating property but the coverage is sheer to light and it takes a while before it sets. In addition to the non-existing coverage it settles into lines which is not good. I don't mind that this concealer provides light coverage but I really just don't how it takes a while before it sets and how it settles into fine lines thus only accentuating the fine lines. With that in mind, this concealer is not design for people with dark under eye circles because it is not going to cover much. The Maybelline DreamLumi Touch Highlighting Concealer is much better and cheaper. In comparison the Maybeline DreamLumi provides better coverage and it sets faster and it does not settle into lines.

Amazing dark circles concealer! it doesnt cake and it conceals perfectly. I use Medium (No.2) on my medium MAC NC40 skin and its ideal! i use powder foundation so i blot some powder under the eye for the conealer to let it set in and it works amazingly.
highly recommend for those looking for a light texture concealer. Note that this conealer is no good for covering blemishes as its too fine

Just writing to let some people know, there isn't much price difference between this and YSL's Touche Eclat.
I know that this is $19.50 and Touche Eclat is $40, but Clinique Airbrush concealer is only 0.05 oz, whereas Touche Eclat is 0.1 oz, which is double the size of Clinique, so YSL is double the price but also twice the amount.
So if you think in relation to the sizing, it's almost the same price anyway.
My advice: try both of them at Sephora and stick with whichever one you like because they differ in colors, undertones, and brightening effect/coverage.
Now onto the actual product review, I like this a lot. It does not give a crazy reflective effect so I look like I have some white undereye mask, but just enough to brighten the eye area and counteract the dark circles. I sometimes also use it on the redness around my cheeks---I love the thin consistency that does not cake up, and the fact that it does not dry out my eye area which is already dry. Do not expect coverage from this; that's not what it's supposed to do anyway. I think Clinique should change the name from Airbrush "concealer" to "highlighter" or "brightener". I have pale, neutral toned skin and I use Neutral Fair. (I also use Bourjois Healthy Mix 51 for your reference). It's small and pricey, but I think it's worth it. I think one pen lasted about 6 months for me with daily use.

I had very high expectations of this product seeing as everyone liked it. Upon my first application, I was sorely disappointed. Compared to my Cle de peau concealer, this is probably 50% coverage. I do not recommend this for undereye circles. I needed three layers before my any sign of coverage appeared. True I do have darker eye circles, nevertheless this is a time consuming concealer and I will not be repurchasing for its lack of coverage. Even for spots, it didn't work as well. It is almost like a light layer of foundation.

I have tried a few concealers for under my eyes and this so far has been the best. it has been the only one i have tried that hasnt caked and looked gross under my eye at the end of the day. i like the yellow tinge to it for one because i have yellow undertones but also because it hides the dark circles better. i have no wrinkles to cover (im seventeen) but just dark circles. overall, its great in terms of no creasing and in terms of colour, but as for coverage its not the greatest. it covers pretty well dont get me wrong i mean i really like this product, it just isnt god like or anything. overall i like this product quite a lot!

I am so disappointed in this product. It's quite thin and watery and has very poor coverage which I had suspected might be the case since other light reflective concealer pens I've tried have been like this. However, the worst part is that it is really drying and cakey. I agree with one of the other reviewers who said it makes fine lines around the eye very obvious which are not visible with other products. Will not be repurchasing.

Ohh how I love this. I decided to test it after watching Lisa Eldridge. I tested it 3 times at different days to be sure about it and then run to buy it. It is 100 times better than any other concealers I've tried. It does not settle into my fine lines, covers lightly, brightens my under eye area naturally, even I can't understand if I'm wearing it or not. I'm NW20 and wear the lightest shade in this concealer. It looks too pink if you test it on your hand but go for it if you're pale, you'll not believe how it looks wonderful. Thank you Lisa!
If you have dark undereye circles, test it before buying, cause this is not a heavy concealer. I don't have dark circles but due to my see-through skin my green veins are visible. After I use this concealer, I can still see my veins but they look very faded. Also, I always use it after I moisturize my eye area.
Btw, I started to love Clinique MUAs, they are very generous and give wonderful samples every time I make a purchase or pass by.
EDIT: I used it as an eyelid primer on a holiday -didn't take painterly with me 'cause wanted to pack light- and loved its performance. Evens out skin tone, does not cause any crease. Perfetto!

I bought this after watching Lisa Eldridge use it over and over again in her videos. I love that it's light weight as I don't like packing too much of anything around the eye area. It works well when I don't have really dark circles or puffiness and does add some illumination to the under eye area.
Only problem I have with it is that the product I purchased developed a really horrible smell after a couple of uses. Almost like the product had gone off. Not sure if this happens a lot with it or just with mine!

BOISE -- Goats are now roaming and grazing in part of the Boise Foothills. Six-hundred goats have temporarily taken up residence in the Polecat Gulch Reserve in northwest Boise, just north of Collister Road.
The city of Boise hired the goats to eat noxious weeds in the 680-acre reserve. This is the first time the city has used goats.
Lynda Linquist and her husband own the company based out of Wilder, aptly named We Rent Goats. The couple and their herd of employees were hired by the city of Boise to clear out rush skeletonweed.
It's a noxious weed, it comes in and takes over and chokes out the native plants. Our objective is to bring the goats in and they eat it and the way goats eat, they break it down and the then the seeds don't reproduce, said Linquist.
Julia Grant with the city of Boise says this is the first time the city has ever used goats for weed mitigation.
Goats have been proven to be a very efficient manager of weeds, said Grant.
She says the goats are comparable in price to weed sprays and better for the environment.
We decided to try goats because they access areas where you don't want to be driving an ATV to spray weeds through the Foothills this time of the year for fear that you're going to light a fire, said Grant.
Once the weeds are eaten down to a specific height where they can't propagate seeds, the goats will be moved uphill to start the process over again.
They're really docile animals, they're really easy to deal with and I think that's why they're perfect for this job, said Linquist. We're not leaving any chemicals -- a little fertilizer, but it's just a more green eco-friendly way to manage.
The city says they plan to use the goats every year to control weeds in the Foothills.
The goats are expected to be in the area for about seven days or until they believe the goats have eaten enough of the rush skeletonweed so it doesn't spread.
The price for those weed eating goats is $2,100.

Ndamukong Suh kicks are gaining a spot on the Thanksgiving menu alongside turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce.
Suh turned heads for the second straight Turkey Day on Thursday by delivering what some believe was an intentional kick to Texans quarterback Matt Schaub's groin.
One could argue that Suh didn't mean to dish out the boot, and that it was an accident that resulted from the lineman's momentum as he hit the turf. However, given Suh's reputation as a dirty player (the league's dirtiest, in fact), it's not inconceivable to think there might have been some malice behind the flailing leg.
Texans head coach Gary Kubiak expressed his displeasure with the controversial play after the game, saying, "I didn't like it."
Last Thanksgiving, of course, Suh was ejected from the Lions' game against the Packers for stomping on lineman Evan Dietrich-Smith. Both Thanksgiving incidents are just a small part of Suh's story, though, as he's also been flagged and fined multiple times for getting too physical with opposing quarterbacks.
Thursday's incident wasn't the first questionable play of Suh's career, an it's probably safe to assume it won't be the last. But before going any further, have a look at Suh's questionable behavior from his two-plus seasons in the NFL.

Judge delays arraignment in Colo. theater shooting
Holmes' lawyers called no witnesses during the hearing.
Another possibility in the case is that either side could argue that Holmes is not mentally capable of assisting in his own defense. If that happens, the judge would order a mental competency evaluation. Sylvester also can order an evaluation if he has his own questions about Holmes' competence.
In the case of the Tucson, Ariz., shooting that killed six people and wounded 13, including then-Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, Jared Loughner was initially ruled incompetent to stand trial. However, after a year of treatment, Loughner was ruled competent, the case proceeded, and he entered guilty pleas.
If Holmes ends up pleading not guilty by reason of insanity, Sylvester would also order a psychiatric evaluation by doctors at the state hospital. A jury would consider that evaluation, along with testimony by expert witnesses, any other court-ordered evaluations and other evidence, in deciding at a trial whether Holmes is or is not guilty by reason of insanity.
If found not guilty by reason of insanity, Holmes would be committed to the state mental hospital for treatment. His case would be reviewed every six months. He conceivably could be released if he ever is deemed no longer insane.
"Insanity is what this case is going to turn on," said Denver criminal defense attorney Dan Recht. "This is not a whodunit case."
Associated Press writer P. Solomon Banda contributed to this report.

East Timor Peacekeeping Mission
The Portuguese colony of East Timor was invaded by Indonesia in 1975.
After almost a quarter-century of bloodshed in the territory, a new Indonesian
government under President Habibie agreed to allow the East Timorese to vote on
their future. A UN operation - the United Nations Mission in East Timor
(UNAMET) - was established to organize and conduct the vote, which was held at
the end of August 1999 and resulted in an overwhelming vote in favour of
independence. Once the result had been announced, pro-Indonesian militias,
sometimes with the support of elements of the Indonesian security forces,
launched a campaign of violence, looting and arson throughout the entire
territory. Many East Timorese were killed, and as many as 500,000 were
displaced from their homes, about half leaving the territory, in some cases
under threat of violence.
Eventually, as the violence remained uncontrolled, Indonesia agreed to the deployment of a multinational peacekeeping force. Australia, which had contributed police to UNAMET, organized and led the International Force for East Timor (Interfet), a non-UN force operating in accordance with UN resolutions. Interfet, with the role of restoring peace and security, protecting and supporting UNAMET, and facilitating humanitarian assistance operations, began arriving on 12 September 1999. Australia contributed over 5,500 personnel and the force commander, Major General Peter Cosgrove.
With the withdrawal of the Indonesian armed forces, police and administrative officials from East Timor, UNAMET re-established its headquarters in Dili on 28 September. On 19 October 1999, Indonesia formally recognised the result of the referendum. Shortly thereafter, the United Nations Transitional Administration in East Timor (UNTAET) was established as an integrated, multi-dimensional peacekeeping operation, fully responsible for the administration of East Timor during its transition to independence. The hand-over of command of military operations from Interfet to UNTAET was completed on 28 February 2000. Australia has continued to support the UN peacekeeping operation with between 1,500 and 2,000 personnel, as well as landing craft and Blackhawk helicopters. Australia remains the largest contributor of personnel to the peacekeeping mission.

DVI Does not work!
I have a LCD Monitor "Samsung 172T"
When I use Red hat Linux the DVI does not work. I can not get a signal. I am new to Linux
can someone help me.
This stuff is not easy.
I have almost the same problem but for me it results in psychedelic colours with the DVI cable. There are a few postings in this forum about this. The bug is reported and the answer was that they're working on it. As far as I know does the bug (the latest nVidia main driver seems to have this bug) occur for the windows version as well.
My suggestion is to report the bug to nVidia (the more reports, the more effort to fix it, i assume), wait for a new driver release and perhaps use a standard VGA cable while waiting, which is supposed to work.

Photos: From 7 to 9 July, at Montjuic, Fira Barcelona Will Host The Brandery, the New Fashion Brands Trade Show
To view the Multimedia News Release, go to: http://www.prnewswire.com/mnr/thebrandery/37630/
The Brandery, with the support of Barcelona City Council, comes with the aim of bringing 250 national and international fashion exhibiters together around the Magic Fountain of the upper area of Montjuic in this first gathering, which will be held on 7, 8 and 9 of July. All those exhibiters involved share the vision of a new fashion identity based on brand protagonism and defined by the "post fashion circus," a new stage not only based on clothing, but on the brands and the people in the "circus" of day-to-day city life who interact with it to give them their personality.
Another decisive aspect is "Made in Barcelona," due to the fact that the city is an international benchmark and possesses the innovative push necessary to make The Brandery a European platform for contemporary fashion from around the globe.
The brands as protagonists
At the official press conference in
The Brandery is structured into 5 large areas which make up a global proposal in terms of the market: The Fira is the commercial meeting area between exhibiters and clients; Brandtown, serves as the outer leisure area, with restaurants, bars, and chill-out zone; Brandstreet will house merchandising, the press, clients and the brand catwalk; The Laundry is a laboratory for ideas, debates, exhibitions and reflections; and, in The City, those present will be able attend the events, parties and exhibitions connected to the trade fair.
To house the brands, names of urban spaces have been chosen that fit each one's style and personality: The Cathedral for those brands where the designer is the determining factor; The Loft, for brands with a more designer/trendy flair; The Warehouse, for denim-based brands; and The Outerspace for street-wear brands and sneakers.

Arizona gets what it wanted for Christmas: chance to avenge losses to SDSU
Except if you listen to their coach, who says they're not even the best in the West.
"Their program stands for itself," Miller said of Fisher's Aztecs. "I've only been in the West for four years, but during my time there's no program that's thrived more than San Diego State. … You've heard me say it several times: San Diego State has every reason to believe they're the best program in the West because they've earned it."
The Aztecs skipped their scheduled practice session at the University of Hawaii on Monday morning, instead watching film at their Waikiki hotel and doing a light walk-through in a ballroom. They spent the afternoon touring Pearl Harbor to, in Fisher's words, "understand and appreciate the significance of where they are." They ate a Christmas Eve meal with their families.
Arizona, meanwhile, has been all business, regularly leaving their hotel for practices and shootarounds. Center Kaleb Tarczewski was asked Sunday night if he'd been to the beach yet. He shook his head.
"I look at it from my room," he said, "and that's about it."
No need to get sand in your shoes.
"We've lost to them twice," Miller said. "No one has to tell us how good they are."

London, United Kingdom
My Rating
Ahmin, from evans evan, our tour guide was witty, very informative and jovial. Our bus journey was filled with historical background of the places of interest which were invaluable. Each of the venue has audio guide so no worries about missing out on the details. It's a tad rush to squeeze these three attractions into one day. If you are on leisure and driving, definitely a not-to-miss. If not, this trip is enough to leave you with fond memories of outside london wishing for more.
Seoul, South Korea
My Rating
The tour brought us to three sites, observatory deck where no photos were allowed beyond a certain line, a tunnel dug by the North Koreans and demilitarized zone. The tour made us experience how real the tension is at the boundaries.. And each of the site brings a different emotion.
New York City, New York
My Rating
We took the 24-hour option for our parents(over 50s). They thoroughly enjoyed the tour around the city on the bus and it's easy for them to hop on to the next bus after lunch to continue the tour. Just to note that if you'd chosen the 24hour option, it is sufficient only to stay on for first half of the day and second half of the day with lunch break in between. If you would really like to fully utilise the tour, to hop on and off as you like, do consider the 72hour option!

By MICHAEL ASTOR RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (AP) -- A Brazilian group agreed Thursday to tone down its sexually explicit displays for the city's famed Carnival parade after prosecutors threatened to ban the floats.Grande Rio - whose carnival theme "Let's Wear the Little Shirt, My Love," slang for using a condom - will modify the explicit decorations on its floats, including a giant Adam and Eve copulating and sexual positions from the Kama Sutra, prosecutor Andrea Rodrigues Amim said."You can see that they have gone beyond erotic and already border on the pornographic," Amim said.The group's president Helio de Oliveira said the changes would be minor.

Dueling Banjos Behind the Outhouse
Greynolds Park could make McGruff the Crime Dog blush. Known by locals for its restroom glory holes and sexual-predator warning signs, the park has been hosting hippie love-ins and bluegrass festivals to fight that image. For connoisseurs, the idea of a bluegrass festival will conjure up images of Del McCoury or the Pinnacle Boys, while others might picture that squeal-like-a-pig scene from Deliverance. Regardless, put some lipstick on that pig and head to the South Florida Bluegrass Association Show and Jam this Sunday. Bring a lawn chair, and stick a brewski in that claw hammer.
The New River Boys will provide the jams, but all concertgoers are encouraged to bring their fiddles, jugs, and washbasin basses so they can jam with other bluegrass-loving folks. Greynolds Park's torrid reputation aside, this is a free family event, much more O Brother, Where Art Thou? than Deliverance. Get your soggy bottom in gear and feel the twang.

The details of the definition of ordinal collapsing functions vary, and get more complicated as greater ordinals are being defined, but the typical idea is that whenever the notation system "runs out of fuel" and cannot name a certain ordinal, a much larger ordinal is brought "from above" to give a name to that critical point. An example of how this works will be detailed below, for an ordinal collapsing function defining the Bachmann-Howard ordinal (i.e., defining a system of notations up to the Bachmann-Howard ordinal).
The use and definition of ordinal collapsing functions is inextricably intertwined with the theory of ordinal analysis, since the large countable ordinals defined and denoted by a given collapse are used to describe the ordinal-theoretic strength of certain formal systems, typically subsystems of analysis (such as those seen in the light of reverse mathematics), extensions of Kripke-Platek set theory, Bishop-style systems of constructive mathematics or Martin-Löf-style systems of intuitionistic type theory.
Ordinal collapsing functions are typically denoted using some variation of the greek letter (psi).
We define a function (which will be non-decreasing and continuous), taking an arbitrary ordinal to a countable ordinal , recursively on , as follows:
In a more concise (although more obscure) way:
Here is an attempt to explain the motivation for the definition of in intuitive terms: since the usual operations of addition, multiplication and exponentiation are not sufficient to designate ordinals very far, we attempt to systematically create new names for ordinals by taking the first one which does not have a name yet, and whenever we run out of names, rather than invent them in an ad hoc fashion or using diagonal schemes, we seek them in the ordinals far beyond the ones we are constructing (beyond , that is); so we give names to uncountable ordinals and, since in the end the list of names is necessarily countable, will "collapse" them to countable ordinals.
Similarly, contains the ordinals which can be formed from , , , and this time also , using addition, multiplication and exponentiation. This contains all the ordinals up to but not the latter, so . In this manner, we prove that inductively on : the proof works, however, only as long as

The Most Dangerous Man in the World Dawood Ibrahim
Author: Gilbert King
Publisher: Chamberlain Bros, 120 pages
If you are in the mood to read a little "doom and gloom" after Sunday lunch, then feel free to pick up Gilbert King's impressively titled The Most Dangerous Man in the World Dawood Ibrahim.
King's subject is Dawood Ibrahim, the notorious Indian gangster believed to be the mastermind of the infamous 1993 Bombay bombings.
Dawood, who is of Indian nationality, fled India after the attack and was given safe haven in Pakistan, where he still remains to this day. King speaks at length of Dawood's rise from Bombay street tough to the "King of Karachi" and the lord of the villainous "D Company" and his support of global terrorists such as Osama bin Laden.
He exposes the secrets of Dawood's life – from his wild all-night parties with prostitutes, to his violent and deadly activities.
Of particular interest to me as a Malaysian was the explanation of Dawood's link to B.S.A. Tahir (remember him?) and what Tahir's nefarious activities and shenanigans were. It also went into the Dawood Ibrahim-Chota Rajan gang wars, which spilled over from India to the surrounding regions before finally coming to a head in Thailand.
I feel that the title of the book is a tad misleading, as the book seems to discuss issues connected to Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and Osama bin Laden as well as Chota Rajan in as much detail as it does Dawood Ibrahim.
The book also makes me a little less sympathetic towards the United States' so-called "war on terror" as it reveals America to have played the part of a Dr Frankenstein who created the radical extremists in the 1980s to help them fight the Russians in Afghanistan, and who have now become its bane.
The book fails to set the pulse racing simply because it seems to tell the tale of a cornered man whose kingdom is in decline. He is no longer the all-powerful underworld monarch with the ability to dispense death as he sees fit, but is described as being dependent on the protection and goodwill of the ISI to survive.
The book cleared up certain doubts as to the actual players in the global terrorist network. On a final note, if what Gilbert King writes is true, then hunting Dawood Ibrahim down would unnecessary as it will be just a matter of time before he dies of AIDS, syphilis or some other sexually transmitted disease as a result of a lifetime of excesses.

Magic Toyshop
Editorial Staff • West End • 18 Jan 2002
Their latest page-to-stage offering is Angela Carter's 1967 novel, The Magic Toyshop, about 15-year-old Melanie whose life takes a nasty turn after her parents' death. Though set recently in south London, Toyshop - adapted by Bryony Lavery and directed by Rebecca Gatward - retains Shared Experience's familiar otherworldliness, thanks to the company's stylised, and intensely physical, approach combined with Carter's own narrative use of myth and magic.
The production's Biblical connotations are particularly overt. As the story opens, Melanie's frolics in her idyllic country garden are brought to a quick end following some mischief with an apple tree (à la Eden - geddit?). She and her young siblings, Jonathan and Victoria, are then cast out to live in the harsh city with their uncle Philip, who runs the toyshop of the title.
Philip's is a Noah's Ark of a household, crammed with not one but two sets of orphans. There's Melanie's trio plus Philip's mute wife Margaret and her two brothers, Finn and Francie, who moved in after their own parents' death. Under Philip's tyranny, this full house is emptied of fun, with the shop's toys kept well out of reach. Philip's waves of violence build steadily until, as with the Ark, the place is engulfed in a flood of sorts, from which only one pair of beasts will survive.
All this symbolism is heightened by Liz Cooke's split-open hull of a set - riddled with trapdoors, trunks and skeletal ladders - which the agile cast clambers over, under and about like a jungle gym.
Performance-wise, the Shared Experience emphasis is on ensemble acting and, true to form, the ensemble here is uniformly strong. A few special mentions must go to Harriet Ashcroft for her rambunctious toddler Victoria, on the chase with her invisible dog, and to Penny Layden who, despite her Margaret's lack of dialogue conveys a groundswell of emotion. Damian O'Hare as the plucky Finn is also endearing, as is Hannah Watkins' innocent but knowing Melanie. (Note: on the press night, Watkins was recovering from a back injury and bravely battled to perform despite obvious physical pain.)
Although Carter's modern story of sexual awakening doesn't seem to pack quite as much political or historical punch as some of Shared Experience's previous efforts, there's still plenty of magic in this toyshop.

Arcade Fire leader Win Butler didn't mince any words late Sunday when his band performed a propulsive headlining set, which included cameos by Blondie singer Deborah Harry and New Orleans' Preservation Hall Jazz Band, at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival.
"We've been coming here for a lot of years and we're honored to be headlining. Thanks for supporting us," the California-born, Texas-raised, Canadian-based Butler told the cheering, overflow audience.
"I just want to say that there's a lot of fake VIP room bull---- happening at this festival, and sometimes people dream of being there – but it sucks in there, so don't worry about it."
Butler's target was just one aspect of Coachella's growing focus on high-priced amenities at the festival, which last year drew upwards of 90,000 people per day, 20 percent of whom reside in San Diego County.
This year's edition, which begins its second weekend on Friday at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, sold out in less than three hours. It did so even though only one of the performers (OutKast, one of three headliners) had been disclosed at the time. The other 2014 headliners are Muse and the Butler-led Arcade Fire. All told, more than 180 acts performed over the past three days. The same lineup will be featured next weekend.
Coachella's current amenities include, at the upper end of the scale, a package that offers furnished, air-conditioned tents with a private swimming pool and concierge, plus two Coachella VIP weekend passes (cost: $6,500 for two). There are $799 VIP packages that include on-site cocktail bars. New this year are nightly gourmet wine dinners, held in a private rose garden ($225 each).

Of course, this is hardly the only festival that seeks to entice those fans who are willing to pay more for perks and greater comfort. And Coachella is constantly expanding the size and quality of its camping area for general admission attendees, adding an array of free entertainment options within the low-priced campground itself.
"Having more land for camping and parking is all part of making the festival a success, based purely on the fact people go and have a good time and are not shoe-horned into a tiny asphalt lot and told to camp there," said Gary Bongiovanni, the publisher of the leading concert industry magazine Pollstar.
Coachella was launched in 1999 by the Los Angeles-based Goldenvoice and was headlined by Beck, who returned Sunday night to deliver a terrific set.
The festival lost $750,000 that first year, went dark the next, and returned in 2001, pared down from two days to one (and only after Goldenvoice partnered with AEG, the world's second largest events and live music production company). AEG now owns a controlling interest in San Diego's Valley View Casino Center and exclusively books the 33-year-old Humphreys Concerts by the Bay series.
Coachella grew slowly, taking several years to draw a large enough audience to break even. Since 2007, when it expanded from two days to three and eliminated single-day tickets for weekend packages, it has grown and changed markedly. That was the same year, incidentally, that Arcade Fire performed at Coachella for the second time in two years and that VIP passes were introduced. (A full review of the band's Sunday show will appear here later Monday.) In 2011, Arcade Fire co-headlined the festival for the first time, along with Kanye West and Kings of Leon.
