John Pistole on Friday won Senate confirmation to lead the Transportation Security Administration, ending an 18-month struggle to find a permanent leader for the agency. Lawmakers from both sides of the aisle praised Pistole for his character and experience, but experts said he would face a "daunting, difficult task" at an agency that has come under intense criticism for its programs and priorities.

Released: Mar 01st, 2005
Running Time: 104
Director: Axel Braun
Company: New Sensations
Cast: Megan Martinez, Sunshine (I), Chris Charming, Sammie Rhodes, Jessica Sweet, Tony T., Zenza Raggi, Ally Sin, David Perry, Mr. Pete
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
It's more fuel for the young girl fire in the wall-to-wall section.
This volume that features a host of young talent is somewhat uneven, as a couple of the scenes either don't flow real well, or lack energy in spots. However, the production is up to snuff, for the most part technically, and the scenes that work, work real well.
It takes about three minutes from the beginning of their threeway for Zenza Raggi and Chris Charming to penetrate Jessica Sweet anally, and the spectacle never slows down from there. Sweet endures a raucous session complete with slapping, choking, A2M, d.p., and even a bit of double anal. The hottest thing is that she appears to love every second of it.
Raggi and Tony T take Sammie Rhodes for quite a ride in her first boy/boy/girl scene. It's definitely not the gentlest of treatments, and Rhodes gets just about the same business as Sweet, just without the rectal-plundering.
Finally, spicy Latin Megan Martinez also does a threesome with Raggi and David Perry that isn't the most fluid of the bunch, but Martinez is pretty hot and still gets the job done admirably.


text: Some of the posts I read around here are just insane to me. So I want to see the results of a poll. Now the question is who is the best player RIGHT NOW. Not 3 years ago, not 3 years in the future. Who will have the best numbers and/or be the most valueable player to the Reds this season?

************************************************************** S O J O M A I L Promoting faith, reason, compassion, and justice in days of violence and fear Brought to you by SojoNet Publisher of Sojourners magazine Visit: http://www.Sojo.net *************************************************************** SojoMail will continue to be delivered to you daily this week...responding to the events of September 11, the suffering left in its wake, the threat of a global war, and the historic shaping of our moral character, now and for the future. **************************************************************** ++++++++++++++++++++ 18-September-2001 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ Q u o t e o f t h e W e e k *The ultimate weakness of violence... M o r a l V i s i o n *Lead us not into war B u i l d i n g A M o v e m e n t *'Deny Them Their Victory' takes off S o u l W o r k s *A psalm of love and anger P. O.

B o o m e r a n g *SojoMail readers hit reply ***************************************************************** Q u o t e o f t h e Day +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth. Through violence you murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate.... Returning violence for violence multiples violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." - Martin Luther King Jr. ***************************************************************** M o r a l V i s i o n ++++++++++++++++++++++ Lead us not into war by Wesley Granberg-Michaelson We have seen a startling glimpse of the face of evil. Thousands of innocents wantonly slaughtered by zealous martyrs. The nation's leaders are calling us to war. In our corporate shock and visceral outrage, citizens are ready to follow. In this moment of our nation's life, what words and wisdom does the church have to offer? How do we morally decipher the meaning of these events - and what difference should that make? When called to war we first must ask, against whom precisely is this war to be waged? Those who committed and enabled this slaughter of civilians absolutely must be brought to moral and legal accountability. Criminal conspiracies of terror must be broken, and the guilty punished. That is the work of justice - but justice is different from war. War is declared against the military power of another state, or against guerrilla armies seeking to replace one government with another. Are we now to declare war on anyone who ideologically and religiously despises America? The terrorists have not just attacked thousands of innocent civilians. They have launched an attack against our ideals, against our value for human life, against our sense of national identity. Evil terror wants us to be controlled by fear, and resort to indiscriminate revenge. The terrorists believe that America is corrupted beyond redemption. They want to provoke America into ugly, indiscriminate responses that will turn more hopeless people in the world against us, and produce more martyrs for their cause. The arsenals of this enemy are fanatic beliefs and religious passions that translate into sacrificed lives. Cruise missiles don't defeat such zealotry. How do we go to war against hate? Our response will be a test of who we are. In this "campaign against terrorism," our strongest weapons are our ideals and values - our belief in the dignity and worth of every human life, our conviction that nations are strong when they respect the rights of all, and our determination to pursue what is right in ways that are just. These defining characteristics of national identity are anathema to the terrorists; this is precisely what their terrorism seeks to destroy. That is why, in a real sense, our struggle is at heart a spiritual one. The evil we have seen does not yield easily to search-and- destroy missions. It is overcome in the end through a resolute commitment to a moral political vision. Even deeper, the religious community always declares that such evil is finally defeated through faith in the power of redeeming love. When someone hates you for any number of alleged reasons, you face a choice. Either you can hate them in return and actively seek their demise. Or you can defend yourself against unjust attack, but live in ways that demonstrate to all that you are not, at heart, the person whom the other accuses you of being. The nation faces choices for how it will respond to evil that now has struck in such devastating ways right at home. Politicians have given the president a military blank check. The church, however, can never write a moral blank check. Rather, the church must steadfastly insist on the distinction between justice and revenge. Paul reminds us, in Romans 12, that vengeance belongs to God. Our task is to resist being overcome by evil, and instead overcome evil with good. That counsel needs to be heard and heeded by those now calling the country to war. Economic, diplomatic, and military strategies must and will be undertaken to bring terrorists to justice. But the church must plead with the nation to never forget who we say we are. For our gravest temptation at this hour is to be grasped by the same evil that controlled the terrorists. So let us join fervently in the prayer taught to us by our Lord, saying, "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." Wesley Granberg-Michaelson is general secretary of the Reformed Church in America. His office is in New York City. -------------------------------------------------------------------- B u i l d i n g A M o v e m e n t +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "Deny Them Their Victory" takes off by Duane Shank Since last Thursday, a thousand religious leaders nationwide have signed the statement "Deny Them Their Victory: A Religious Response to Terrorism." The statement is now being used as a powerful tool across the country and around the world in forging a public dialogue on America's moral leadership in responding to the events of September 11. The signatories include the heads of 15 Christian denominations, the presidents of six major seminaries, superiors of Catholic religious orders, and directors of state councils of churches. There are evangelical and black church leaders, and leaders of the historic peace churches. Leaders of several major Jewish and Muslim organizations have signed along with hundreds of local pastors and rabbis. At this critical juncture we have an opportunity to allow the voice of America's religious community to act and speak as one in preventing an indiscriminate violent response to the tragic events of last Tuesday. Today we are sending the statement to the White House and Congress. We are preparing to run it as an ad in The New York Times and other major newspapers. We urge you to use this powerful tool as it suits your community - have your church sign on, send it as a letter to the editor of your local paper, present it to your interfaith council, or ask your local government and business leaders to sign on. Use this unprecedented religious statement as a basis for public dialogue in forging a moral and principled response to the attack on America. Together, with God's help, we can pray and work to mourn the dead in our country while preventing more innocent deaths in other countries.

Where is justice? For the agony of hunger is not to be set against the insatiable appetites of jaded palates. In the villages and camps, the children lie bleeding, and great wounds gape in their throats and sides. In the city there is no safety for them; as the leaves blow through the night streets, they are swept away, they disappear without trace as if they had never been. In the marketplace, weapons are bought and sold; they change hands as easily as onions from a market-woman, and killing comes lightly everywhere. The value of people is weighed out on crooked scales and found wanting, They are discarded like bruised apples because they lack the appearance of perfection. But you, my heart's heart, you are careful; like a thrifty housewife you see no waste in anything, You gather up that which has been cast aside, knowing its sweetness, and take it home with you. And I will see you in the camps and villages, working late into the night, showing patience in the midst of confusion, reweaving the web of life. I will see you in the cities, seated in a circle, making new plans, drawing attention, naming the forgotten names. I will see you in the marketplace, dressed in black, with the carved face of an old woman saying No to war, and you will stand your ground and you will seem beautiful to me. For you are my sanctuary and my light, my firm ground when the earth cracks under the weight of warring gods. As a woman in mortal danger flees to her sisters and finds refuge, so you will comfort me, and dress my wounds with tenderness. And when the flame of courage burns low in me, your breath, as gentle as a sleeping child, will stir the ashes of my heart. Teach me to know your judgement as my friend, that I may never be ashamed of justice, or so proud that I flee from mercy. For your love is never less than justice, and your strength is tenderness. You contain my soul's yearning, and in your encompassing, I am free. *Kathy Galloway is a Scottish theologian and writer. This is taken from her collection "Talking to the Bones." ----------------------------------------------------------------- P. O. V. ++++++++ International crime, not war by Tom Barry and Martha Honey The attack on America's centers of power was an extremist reaction to what is perceived as a new world order where only the U.S. calls the shots. But it was, first and foremost, a crime against all humanity. If there is to be justice in this incident and if there is to be the rule of law in international affairs, the U.S. should seek the solace and support of the international community. Despite differences with U.S. foreign policy, especially in the conflicted Middle East, nations around the world have been quick to express their own outrage and willingness to join with America to fight and reduce the causes of international terrorism. As Americans deliberate an effective response to this tragedy and crime, we must first reject the call for war. The gauntlet goading us to militaristic responses that treat human life as callously as the terrorists treated ours must be categorically rejected. As with any other crime, the perpetrators and their accomplices must be brought to justice - in the courts of law, not according to the fundamentalist "eye-for-an-eye, tooth-for-a-tooth" precepts. In recent years, we have made encouraging progress in establishing and enforcing international norms for human rights and crimes against humanity. This is an opportunity to forge a broader international coalition - bringing disparate nations together in a common determination to fight against such crimes against humanity. A first principle, then, must be that we treat this as an international crime, not an act of war, and that the rules of law should guide international response. A second principle that should guide U.S. policy is that our investigation, pursuit, and prosecution should as much as possible count on consultation with and the cooperation of the world community of nations. Any government suspected of harboring or otherwise aiding these international terrorists should answer to concerted international pressure, not just American outrage. If indeed military action is deemed necessary, it should carry the approval of the U.N. Security Council - otherwise the U.S. too will be violating the basic principles of international law. Our politicians would dishonor the dead if they focused the new security debate solely on issues of intelligence reform and defense technology. More fundamentally, the U.S. needs to take a hard look at the policies and political structures that fan the flames of terrorism - to understand why such anger in the Middle East and elsewhere is directed at America. The task of forging a security policy not just on our response capability but also on addressing the new causal factors for war and terrorism is surely America's greatest challenge - and our success will be the true measure of our character. *Tom Barry of the Interhemispheric Resource Center and Martha Honey of the Institute for Policy Studies are co-directors of Foreign Policy In Focus at http://www.fpif.org To read the complete essay written by Barry and Honey go to: http://www.fpif.org/commentary/0109terror-crime.html ************************************************************** W e b s c e n e ++++++++++++++++ Where do journalists go to get the latest news, resources, and follow-up on the September 11 attack?

Riley of Sarasota, Florida, wrote: Considering the recent attack on America, I suggest reading "Jihad vs. McWorld" by Benjamin R. Barber. It is worthy of much reflection. ----------------------- Martha Zirkle of Roanoke, Virginia, wrote: I am not a subscriber; a friend in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia forwarded your e-mail article. I hope and pray that our nation does not act without absolute proof of guilt of this dastardly act. Such horrible scenes, as we have seen on TV, keep us in a numbing emotional state of shock! We have viewed so many reactions - from tears of a fireman to clenched fisted youth saying "Go get them now!" We all share these feelings, but we must act with caution. How can we find them when there is a "network?" ------------------------ Lynn Barrington of Dallas, Texas, wrote: Oh come on! This is ridiculous! What are we to do? Contemplate while they continue to blow us up? We didn't learn in 1993, these people will never, ever quit this way of behavior. Just because you respond in force, with force, does not mean you are responding in hate. It means you are protecting your home. At one time, I told people I could not shoot someone even if they came into my home and shot me or my family. I said that until I was shot at! Once that happened, let me tell you I could and I would shoot back. ------------------------- Diane Sekuloff of Canada wrote: I am heartened by the voices of those who call for restraint and are able to see the events of 11 Sept. in light of the drawbacks of the "American Way." We, who by good fortune hold 90% of the world's wealth, have neglected our responsibility with respect to the rest of the world. While this doesn't absolve the guilt of those who resorted to senseless violence, in the face of their own coloured perspective of the world, it does call on Americans and their allies to act responsibly and thoughtfully in return. Retaliation will create an even playing field, but not the one we might hope for - it will make us just as cruel and arrogant as those who planned and executed the attacks on Tuesday. Certainly the world community must root out those who resort to such tactics, and deal with them with the fullness of justice and law. ------------------------ Susan Masten of East Lansing, Michigan, wrote: I am immensely disappointed that your "Response to Terrorism" was not stronger. I would have hoped that you would have spoken out against using any military force against innocent people. I am asking you to implore President Bush and Congress from taking any action that would harm any other civilians in the world. As Bob Dylan first sang many years ago, "How many deaths will it take 'til we know that too many people have died?" Well, too many people have died here in the U.S. and overseas!... Let us seek a world in which security is gained through disarmament, international cooperation, and social justice, not through escalation and retaliation. -------------------------- Bruce Enns of Austria wrote: Thank you for your wonderful newsletter. It brings continual comfort and solace, and demands careful thought. Like many here in Europe I mourn for the many who have been cut down or severed from loved ones and I will be ever mindful of the wonderful care that America has shown in protecting those with less power. However, in watching CNN and the barrage of reaction, I am not sure that enough Americans have heard the message. Sadly, the world is full of people who would love to share "American values" but have never had the privilege of enjoying the benefits. The poor, dispossessed, and hopeless have resorted to hate. Justice, yes, but please consider that many who perform these terrible acts of hate need to be heard, not just stamped out. No matter how many ants you step on, somehow more always show up on your doorstep unless you provide them with an alternative. Money and national resolve have not yet been sufficient to obliterate the mafia or even gang warfare on city streets. This may be even more difficult. ----------------- Thomas Handy Loon of Bemidji, Minnesota, wrote: Following are some proposals I've already e-mailed to my representatives that I'd like to share. We must be proactive towards peaceful solutions, or we'll be overrun by the aggressors and the vengeful among us. *Negotiate with Pakistan, Afghanistan, or whoever to induce them to turn over Osama bin Laden for a legal trial in a world court, where hopefully calmer heads could prevail. *Offer them money and development aid that could lift their people out of poverty and offer those with extremist tendencies an alternative to finding glory as suicide bombers. *Announce an immediate moratorium on sales of military hardware worldwide, including to Israel. *Apologize for our past misbehaviors. (It would be a long list indeed!) Show the world that even the big, bad USA has a heart, and watch our circle of global friends grow, instead of shrink. -------------------------------------- Boomerang is an open forum for all kinds of views.

Robin Williams was sober and suffering from early stages of Parkinson's disease as well as anxiety and depression at the time of his apparent suicide, the actor's wife said in a statement on Thursday.
Susan Schneider said the actor "was not yet ready to share publicly" his struggles with Parkinson's Disease.
"It is our hope in the wake of Robin's tragic passing, that others will find the strength to seek the care and support they need to treat whatever battles they are facing so they may feel less afraid," Schneider said in the statement.
The 63-year-old Oscar-winning star of such films as "Mrs. Doubtfire" and "Good Will Hunting" was found hanged at his San Francisco-area home by his personal assistant on Monday.
Williams had been open about his struggles with alcohol and had recently gone to a Minnesota rehabilitation center this summer to "fine-tune" his sobriety, his publicist said.
The death of Williams, who shot to prominence in the 1970s with his groundbreaking hyperactive comedic style, shook Hollywood as tributes poured out from actors, directors, politicians and generations of fans.

Using desktop virtualization to protect laptop data
Backup expert Brien Posey explains the role desktop virtualization can play in an organization's efforts to protect data stored on laptops.
Do you see organizations using desktop virtualization to address the issue of unprotected data on laptops? Or is it too much of an expense or undertaking for most organizations?

The fact that desktop virtualization can simplify the backup process is simply an add-on benefit. It isn't usually enough of a compelling reason by itself to make an organization adopt the technology.
It is important to remember that desktop virtualization assumes that any time a user wants to access corporate resources, they log on to a virtual desktop. The problem with this assumption is that there are likely to be times when the user does not bother logging on and simply works locally. I have yet to see an organization provide mobile users with access to virtual desktops, but also perform laptop-specific backups. This means that data stored on the laptop's local hard drive may still be at risk in spite of the investment made in desktop virtualization.

Motorola Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: MSI), a leading provider of mission-critical communication solutions and services for enterprise and government customers, is working with Best Buy Canada and Future Shop, Canada's first electronics retailers to roll out fully integrated, enterprise mobile point of sale (mPOS) solutions. Both companies today announced they have improved customer service and staff productivity at a number of stores with the implementation of tablet-based mPOS technology.
Best Buy Canada and Future Shop are leveraging new mPOS applications coupled with devices, like Motorola's ET1 enterprise tablet, to empower their retail associates to help customers from the beginning to the end of their shopping experience. Associates can handle more tasks, manage purchase transactions from anywhere in the store and in the future, plan to leverage omni-channel retail strategies like having out-of-stock items shipped to customers' homes or stores to meet their needs more effectively.
- Select Best Buy and Future Shop stores use the following Motorola Solutions' technology to drive its mPOS strategy:
- ET1 tablet – Designed for assisted selling, mPOS, item locator and planogram management and compliance applications, the Android-based ET1 tablet in WAN or WLAN configurations brings the consumer tablet experience to an enterprise-class device.
- MC40 mobile computer – The MC40 is the first multi-purpose mobile computer for retail that incorporates inventory management with collaboration and line-busting mPOS capabilities in a compelling form factor.
- MPM-100 Bluetooth® mobile payment module – A rugged addition to Motorola's enterprise-class mobile payment solutions, this device turns the mobile computer into a mPOS device capable of Chip and PIN, and MSR transactions.
- Motorola's mPOS solution also provides Best Buy and Future Shop with a mobile deployment and management solution, providing an easy way to keep their applications current and secure from a single, centralized IT location.

WEIR: Right. But being there is a means to an end and that's a husband, right?
HENDRICKS: But is it?
WEIR: Maybe that's what she thinks initially.
HENDRICKS: Yet she keeps not getting married. I don't know what's gonna happen in season three. I haven't been told. But it seems to me Joan could have gotten married whenever she wanted. And I don't know if it's what she really wants.
WEIR: How much do you think the sexual politics of the workplace has changed since that era?
HENDRICKS: I don't think anyone's thinking differently. I think they just watch their tongues a little bit more, probably. There are a lot more lawsuits than there were. I think women have gotten power in that way and have stood up for themselves in that way but there's still a lot of sexist things going on and misbehavior all over the place. We're animals, we're human animals. We can't help ourselves.
WEIR: I just realized that I didn't open your door for you on the car.
HENDRICKS: Tsk, tsk.
WEIR: Is it true that Matthew Weiner, creator of "Mad Men," told the actresses to stop working on your arms? He doesn't want any chiseled arms?
HENDRICKS: He has a big issue with that. And of course, in Los Angeles where people are so fit and working out all the time and sometimes a little work on the face, it doesn't look like 1960s. So Matthew is very careful about his casting. He did specifically say, "I don't want to see any muscle. I don't want to see biceps." So we're all like, "No problem, thank you, this just became even a more perfect job".
WEIR: What was your first paid job as an actress?
HENDRICKS: I did a commercial about two weeks after I moved to L.A. with Pierce Brosnan. It was a Visa Check Card commercial. My line was, "Absolutely, James. I'll just need some ID."
WEIR: Sort of a Miss Moneypenny.
HENDRICKS: I was a lithe sexy girl behind the counter flirting with James Bond. And I was so nervous, I was so nervous, I was absolutely trembling and Pierce Brosnan was so nice. He said, "You're doing great. Calm down. You're gonna be fine." Of course he'd never remember me in a million years, but I thank him for being so patient with me. He was very nice.
WEIR: Who were your heroes growing up?
HENDRICKS: When I lived here, I was very much involved in dance at the time, I wanted to be a dancer. So my heroes were Margot Fonteyn and Baryshnikov. I think a lot of artists or actors have a dream of how their life would become or idols that they base their life on. And I just always have sort of gone with the flow. I never had a game plan.
WEIR: So, no standing in front of the mirror with a hairbrush as an Oscar?
HENDRICKS: I definitely played a tennis racquet as a guitar. I wanted to be one of the Go Gos for a little bit. Well, who didn't want to be one of the Go Gos, right?
WEIR: I wanted to be Belinda Carlisle. So do you still have that go-with-the-flow attitude in terms of your career?
HENDRICKS: It is an exciting time. Now I have all these people helping me figure it out. I have agents and managers and people who are saying, 'you should do this, and you shouldn't do this.' I've chosen to just listen to them for the most part. I guess I am still going with the flow. It's different now, though, because I'm getting married and my fiance's an actor and his show's in L.A. So now it's about making both of our things work together.
WEIR: How did you react when your fiance, Jeffrey Arrends, proposed?

Zac Brown Finally Has a Son!
Zac Brown (of the Zac Brown Band) once joked that he planned to keep trying until he had a son. And his fifth child, who arrived on Monday, is his very first son. Joining big sisters Joni Mason, 3, Georgia Sloan, 4½, Lucy, 5½, and Justice, 7, is Alexander Frost, according to People magazine.
Unfortunately, it looks like Daddy won't get a whole lot of time home with his new arrival, as the Zac Brown Band is due on the road later this month.
Check out our analysis of the baby name choice over at In Name Only, and see how this celebrity name compares with what our Baby Fame Name generator dreams up.
Tell us: Did you have a slew of boys or girls? And did you keep trying until you had one of each sex? (I'm the mom of 2 daughters and pretty happy about it myself!)

Mark Read builds hope from ground up
He could say that he does it for the karma points, which are considerable. Or because it is the right thing to do, which it is. But the real reason Mark M. Read helps HomeAid San Diego build and renovate homes for the homeless is because he likes it. It is not any more complicated or any less heartfelt than that.
"I do it for my own benefit," said Read, executive managing director with Voit Real Estate Services and a founding member of HomeAid San Diego. "I heard a quote once that stuck with me. 'You make a living by what you get. You make a life by what you give,' and that feels right to me. It just feels good to be able to help."
Since forming HomeAid San Diego in 2002, Read and his fellow board members have been mobilizing local builders, contractors and tradespeople to build or remodel group homes and shelters that serve emancipated foster youth, seniors, veterans and women and children effected by domestic violence.
The building professionals donate some or all of the materials and manpower, giving the nonprofits that operate the shelters (including the Child Abuse Prevention Foundation, Catholic Charities and YMCA Youth & Family Services) more money to do what they do for the people who need them.
"What was so appealing to me is that people can donate time, materials, labor and expertise to a project," Read said from the glass-walled conference room of CBRE, the commercial real estate firm where he worked until last year and where HomeAid San Diego still holds its board meetings. "A lot of people want to give back, but when times are tough, they can't write a big check. But they can put in tile or hang a door."
HomeAid is an Irvine-based nonprofit founded by the Orange County chapter of the Building Industry Association of Southern California. Read is a San Diego-based commercial real estate expert and a past president of the local chapter of the National Association of Industrial and Office Properties. So when HomeAid approached NAIOP in 2001 about starting a San Diego branch, it made sense that Read would be the man to make it happen. And because HomeAid makes sense to Read, he has been making it happen for 10 years.
On Read's watch, HomeAid San Diego was adopted by other businesses and professional organizations, including CBRE national, which made HomeAid America Inc. its charity of choice. And when the local building industry experienced its own economic downturn, Read figured out ways to keep the group in the home-providing business.
"Mark is very calm, creative and persistent. He isn't one to just give up," said Rachel Collins, director of sales for Pardee Homes San Diego and a member of the HomeAid board. "His commitment to the cause and his creativity in approaching how San Diego HomeAid can take on projects is just an inspiration."
In addition to donating his time and his former employer's office space, the 58-year-old Read has donated his own money to HomeAid San Diego while also bringing friends, family members and colleagues into the fold. And while he insists he is one of the least handy people he knows ("I am definitely unskilled labor"), Read has also contributed his share of sweat equity to many of its projects.

Team Sauerland will reconsider its plan to offer Evander Holyfield a rematch against WBA heavyweight champion Nikolai Valuev following Tommy Brooks´ outrageous remarks in the press. The coach of the 46-year-old boxing legend, who lost a close majority decision by the scores of 116-112, 115-114 and 114-114, told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: I think it was just some home cooking for a promoters fighter. I think somebody was just greasing somebodys palms..
Wilfried Sauerland was shocked when he found out about the statements. I can understand his disappointment, the manager said. After all, his fighter put on a an impressive performance for which he deserves our respect. However, I cannot comprehend his remarks at all. They are derisive, outrageous and absolutely untrue. I would not have expected such unsporting behaviour from him. We offered Holyfield a rematch straight away but now we will have to reconsider it.
Sauerland managing director Chris Meyer admitted that the bout was difficult to score. It was a very close fight. The judges agreed on just four rounds. Also, the fight looked much different on TV than it did from inside the arena. Most of the experts at ringside had Valuev winning. It is funny to see how the European and US media disagree about the outcome.
A string of highly-respected boxing writers just like WBA president Gilberto Mendoza - had Valuev ahead. Among them Phil Woolever of The Sweet Science (For the record, I had it 115-113 Valuev), Ron Lewis of The Times and Gareth A. Davies of The Telegraph. All three of them were at ringside.
Here is what Ron Lewis wrote in his blog article titled Valuev was a worthy winner:
Sometimes, I guess you think the world has just gone mad. After one very long night in Zurich, I returned home this morning to discover everyone up in arms that Evander Holyfield was supposedly robbed against Nikolay Valuev in their WBA heavyweight title bout on Saturday night. That was certainly not the case.
Yes the crowd booed, but they booed Valuev before the start. They booed him after he beat Ruiz in August and that was one-sided. Ringside - where I watched the fight from - opinion was split about who had won. Everyone sitting near me had Valuev a clear winner and I had him ahead by five rounds. No one in Holyfield's camp roared "robbery". Sure, they said they thought they did enough to win, but that was it. Expect that to change by the time they get back from America, when they discover that the power of television has whipped up support in their favour.
Gareth A. Davies of The Telegraph holds a similar opinion. He wrote in his blog:
Why was it that so many who saw the fight on television thought Holyfield had won ? Because you see a different on tv - plus commentary, plus crowd support - than what is in front of you. Live coverage enhances perception, not television. That's why we go to these events.
From ringside, there were varying degrees in opinion, and on the judges' cards, it came down to the final round. From my position, I thought Valuev had won the fight. Yet to call it a fix, as some websites and commentators have done, is wrong.

One of the most unique Broadway events of the year comes to Shubert Alley this Sunday, from 10am to approximately 6pm, and that is the annual Broadway Flea Market and Grand Auction. A fundraiser for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, the flea market features two streets full of tables where the cast, crew, and staff of Broadway shows and theater-related organizations hawk their wares. These items include standard fare such as show posters, old Playbills, and merchandise like mugs and t-shirts. More coveted items include autographed memorabilia, props and costumes actually used onstage, and even baked goods made by cast members of Broadway shows. (Tip: Get there as soon as the flea market begins in the morning to get a shot at nabbing the best stuff.) A large number of Broadway and television celebrities will also be signing autographs throughout the day, but be prepared to wait in line for a little while. The highlight of the event occurs in the mid-afternoon when some of the flea market's most impressive items are auctioned off. The auctions typically include things like rare autographed posters, dinners with celebrities, and walk-ons for TV shows and Broadway shows. Shubert Alley is located in Times Square, between 44th and 45th streets, between 7th and 8th avenues.

Variables -
Understanding Variables
This element allows you to define variables to be used in the variables substitution system. Some variables are built-in, such as
$INSTALL_PATH (which is the installation path chosen by the user).
To define variables, you place
<variable> elements inside a
<variables> or
<dynamicvariables> element which are in turn children of the
<installation> element.
If you define a variable named
VERSION you need to type $VERSION in the files to parse. The variable substitutor will then replace it with the value that you specified in the
<variables> or
<dynamicvariables> element with the name VERSION.
<variable> tag takes the following attributes :
name: the variable name
value: the variable value
Note that variable names are case-sensitive.
Here's a sample
<variables> section :
Types of Variables
Static variables
Static variables are defined using the
<variables> element.
Static variables are evaluated when an installation starts and will not alter during the installation process.
Environment variables
System environment variables that are defined when the IzPack installation is launched, can be used without a
<variables> element definition
${ENV[variable]}. The curly braces are mandatory.
Dynamic variables
The value of dynamic variables will be evaluated every time a panel is switched. This makes them useful for passing information between panels during the installation.
Dynamic variables can be defined by the user using the
<dynamicvariables> element in the installation description.
Furthermore, dynamic variables can be also assigned from several configuration and archive files, the Windows registry, the output of a command execution and dynamically filtered using Java regular expressions.
Dynamic variables are handled like other variable types for variable substitution.
See Dynamic Variables for more information and some examples how this can be achieved.
Built-In variables
There are a couple of "hard-coded" variables implemented in IzPack.
The following variables are built-in and have values set by IzPack depending on the target system or information supplied by the user during the installation.
$INSTALL_PATH: the installation path on the target system, as chosen by the user
$INSTALL_DRIVE: the drive letter part of the installation path on the target system, applies to Windows systems only.
$APPLICATIONS_DEFAULT_ROOT: the default path for applications
$JAVA_HOME: the JavaTM virtual machine home path
$CLASS_PATH: the Class Path used mainly for Java Applications
$USER_HOME: the user's home directory path
$USER_NAME: the user name
$APP_NAME: the application name
$APP_URL: the application URL
$APP_VER: the application version
$ISO2_LANG: the ISO2 language code of the selected langpack.
$ISO3_LANG: the ISO3 language code of the selected langpack.
$IP_ADDRESS: the IP Address of the local machine.
$HOST_NAME: the HostName of the local machine.
$FILE_SEPARATOR: the file separator on the installation system
For setting
<platform>, see also: Use Cases.the fully qualified target installation directory for the target platform. IzPack choses the most closely matching directory according to the current platform..
The following variables are defined but can have values redefined by the installation procedure:
$DesktopShortcutCheckboxEnabled: When set to true, it automatically checks the "Create Desktop Shortcuts" button. To see how to use it, go to `The Variables Element <variables> Be careful this variable is case sensitve !
$InstallerFrame.logfilePath: The path to the install log. This file contains the paths of all installed files. If set to "default" then the "$INSTALL_PATH/Uninstaller/install.log" path will be used. To see how to use it, go to `The Variables Element <variables>. If this variable is not set, no install.log will be created.
Variable Substitution
References to variables enclosed in certain placeholder begin and end marks (for example
${ and
}) can be used to substitute the specified placeholders in
- attribute values and embedded text in the installation description from which an IzPack setup is created
- resource files of an installation
- installed text files and shell scripts in several formats using the <parsable> tag
Substitute Variables in the Installer Descriptor
In additional to properties, static variables defined by the
<variables> tag can be substituted in the installer descriptor (install.xml) itself, where they have been defined.
This is limited to static and built-in variables. It is not possible to substitute dynamic variables here, because they are refreshed and evaluated during the installation as soon as a panel is activated or changed, not at compilation time.
Variable references in the installer descriptor apply on the plain style syntax, with a leading $ before the variable name, optionally enclosed in curly braces. Example
${MY_VAR} or
Substitute Variables in Resource Files
Variables can be also substituted in resource files declared by the
<resources> tag.
This is limited to static and built-in variables. It is not possible to substitute dynamic variables here, because they are refreshed and evaluated during the installation as soon as a panel is activated or changed, not at compilation time, and resource files are static files.
Variable references in the installer descriptor apply on the plain style syntax, with a leading $ before the variable name, optionally enclosed in curly braces. Example
${MY_VAR} or
Substitute Variables in Installed Files
To replace variable references in installed textfiles those files must be tagged as parsable.
For this purpose, specify the
<parsable> tag on a file. Files marked parsable are parsed during the installation on the fly, references to existing variables are substituted, and the file is saved with substituted variable values.
See the <packs> element documentation for more information on how to use the
<parsable> tag.
Using System Properties As Variables
System properties are directly assigned to variables using the following syntax, provided the system property is
If "
-Dfeature.Enabled=true" is on the command line that launched the installer, the command line argument can be used as follows:
is equivalent to:
The format used in IzPack 4 and earlier is supported in IzPack 5.0 for backward compatibility:
If the variable name contains '.' characters they got to be replaced by '_' here.
If "
-Dfeature.Enabled=true" is on the command line that launched the installer, the command line argument can be used as follows:
is equivalent to:
1 Comment
Regarding to my tests expression
"${SYSTEM[feature.Enabled]}"does work in a <dynamicvariables> only, not in <the <variables> section. See also my update to the Dynamic Variables page

Despite the assumptions of studios like Warner Bros., the American public is surely astute enough to distinguish between an NC-17-rated Saving Private Ryan and the gay porn flick Shaving Ryan's Privates. But NC-17, whose demonization hinges on a lovefest between cultural conservatism and profit maximization, is more valuable to Hollywood as a vehicle for eliminating the radical and erotic peripheries of mainstream cinema. Given an MPAA calculus in which one breast equals roughly 43 dead bodies in terms of its potentially traumatic effect on children, NC-17 is effectively a dump site for cinematic depictions of sexuality a way of sexing-down all movies. (A telling valuation: 1990's Henry and June received an NC-17 while two years later Reservoir Dogs got an R.)
In defense of the ratings system, Valenti insists that "the audience to whom this ratings system is directed i.e., the parents of America like it, and they use it. Movie critics don't use it most of them don't have children, or at least the ones that have been giving me a bad time." But the virtual extinction of NC-17 has turned the system into de facto parents for all adults, cramming adult themes into R-rated movies that accompanied teenagers can see. The net effect is a second Production Code, whose terms are dictated less by morality than by economies of scale swathed in pseudo-morality. To service consolidated nationwide theater and video chains, Hollywood must produce consolidated movie fare PG, PG-13, and laxly enforced R that hooks multiple demographics. In this formula, there's no room for NC-17.

Another game has been installed in the Xbox Live Arcade, as Xbox 360 owners can now download a demo or full version of PopCap Games' block-busting puzzle game AstroPop from the system's Marketplace.
Previously released on the PC and mobile phones, AstroPop requires players to fend off a rapidly descending wall of colored blocks. Players move a ship along the bottom of the screen, pulling blocks off the wall and putting them back up to match four or more of the same color, which destroys the cluster.
The Xbox 360 version of the game lets players unlock different characters and new weapons to help destroy the bricks. There's even a sci-fi storyline to accompany the action.
AstroPop is rated E for Everyone and sells for 800 Marketplace points, or $10.
