Algiers — The celebration of Eid al Fitr in different hospitals of Algiers took place Monday in an atmosphere of solidarity and charity with hospitalized people, chiefly children.
Thus, the Algerian Red Crescent (CRA) organized a campaign of solidarity for kids hospitalized in the pediatric surgery wing of Mustapha Pasha University Hospital (Algiers). Toys and gifts were offered to kids who have not had the chance to live these moments with their families.
This is the sixth year in a row that similar operations are organized for children in hospitals in collaboration with the National Radio, said Lila Haman, representing the CRA adding that visits were made to these services during the month of Ramadan to inquire about the needs of children who spend the Eid deprived from family warmth.
According to the same official, the CRA preferred that these gifts and toys are distributed by other children to deepen the sense of solidarity and mutual aid.

[REQ] Fed Ship - Pegasus Class
STO has a history of taking a ship that did something cool, making its registry the name of a new class and giving it a power that lets it do that thing as a console power (or something broadly similar).
To that end, I figured why not the Pegasus.
I'm thinking Tier 5 Oberth Retrofit. Science ship with new art assets that follow the Oberth theme, scaled up to tier 5.
The ship would come with a special "Universal Console - Phase Cloak" which would be usable on any ship and have statistics broadly similar to other federation cloaks- perhaps a decreased stealth value in exchange for disabling collision while cloaked. This would *not* be a battle cloak.
The Pegasus was the TNG equivalent of the Rapier, a testbed for technologies that would go on to become federation standard- its weapon systems and impulse engines were both experimental and would later form the basis for the Galaxy Class's systems. With this in mind, the ship could be handled as a 'three pack' perhaps, with a tactical/science/engineering focused version that also comes with a different option. Unlike other three packs, these items would be useable on other ships (just as the phase cloak and weapon/engines were later used on the Galaxy class USS Enterprise D.
This ship would also be available to the Klingons, perhaps as a "Kruge Class", named after the captain who destroyed the USS Grissom, another Oberth class vessel.
Might look something like this:
Pegasus Class Science Ship.
3 Weapons fore
3 Weapons aft
Boff seating would be as follows:
CMDR Sci
LTC Sci
LT (whatever the ship's focus is- sci/tac/eng)
LT (universal)
ENS Eng.
So you could get a 'cmdr sci, ltc sci, lt sci, lt uni, ens eng' for the sci version, for instance.
(Tactical version console)
Universal Console - Experimental Linked Beam Array
Useable on any ship.
Activation - increases firing radius of all equipped beam array weapons to 360 for duration (probably 15-30 seconds), enables overload firing mode (sort of like singularity overload).
(Science version console)
Universal Console - Experimental Phasing Cloak
Usable on any ship.
Statistics: Like a normal cloak, maybe lower stealth value, but disables collision while active or provides a giant defense boost or makes your ship non-targetable a la the Karfi.
(Engineering version console)
Universal Console - Experimental Engine Manifolds)
Usable ona ny ship.
Statistics: some +speed, +turn rate bonus, and an activatable power;
Activation - Engine Manifold Overload 'Overloading your experimental engine manifolds causes a massive explosion, and knocks your impulse engines offline for a time'.
Works just like the singularity jump console power, except instead of spawning a singularity that pulls enemies in and damages them, it spawns a warp core breach style explosion and flings you off, granting temporary stealth- but also disables your engines temporarily. Totally in theme for what happened to the Pegasus.
The Federation do not develop cloaking devices, the Tactical Escort Retrofit is basically the Defiant from DS9 it's a one off ship, but hey only 1 in the game would be boring and unfair.
The Gal X was a one of a kind vessel. It was Admiral Rikers Command ship, the Enterprise D massively upgraded. See above reasoning.
In the game the Federation has announced it's long standing belief in not developing cloaks.
If you want a Cloaked ship roll a Romulan or a Klingon. You can have any colour palette you want for UI so done.
Romulans/Lock Boxes will be getting the new ships for quite some time now.
But in all fairness you do have a good idea, instead of a T5 Oberth, make a ship that reminds you of it. The question is would it be equal or better than the Vesta? I'm thinking not so much.
According to "The Path to 2409" the last Starfleet Officers who toyed with cloaking devices (after Hobus) were courtmartialed for it and the president signed an executive order banning cloaks.
So forget the cloak.
While I find the idea of a T5 Oberth hilarious (the ship was the ultimate redshirt after all) I'd be very interested in a science ship of a different kind:
One of the design concepts for the Pegasus before they decided to use the Oberth due to budgetary concerns looked like a Nebula built out of Ambassador parts.
Since we have both the Ambassador and the Nebula, why not this ship as well.
Throw in a dorsal module and voila a new science ship.;)
The Nova class was to replace all the aging Oberth class vessels and we already have a fleet Nova. Great ship. Almost as tanky as the Wells.
While I can kind of get on board with the idea of a ship somewhat like this, surely they couldn't call it the Pegasus class. That would be akin to naming it the U.S.S. Watergate--surely they don't want to remind people of that. ;)
I can possibly see a updated Tier 5 Oberth Retrofit as a high-speed scout sci vessel with the speed of B'rel and the HP of the Nova Retrofit with a Phased Cloaked console (Only used by Oberth types) that unlike the Defiant/Galaxy-X, it can cloaked at the same time while any hostile weapons fired at it will miss, but the phased cloak itself should have a limited duration and a 3-5 min cool down time.
The stats i can see for a possible Oberth Retrofit
Hull: 2400 to 2750
Shield Mod: 1.3 to 1.43
Weapon Slots: 3 fore, 3 aft
Crew: 80
BOff: 1 Sci Com, 1 Sci Lt. Com, 1 Tac Lt, 1 Eng Lt, 1 Uni Ensign
Consoles: 2 Tac, 3 Eng, 4 to 5 Sci
Turn Rate: 13 to 15
Inertia Rate: 70 or 80
Bonus Power: 15+ Aux
In my opinion since the Oberth class is a small Science vessel, i think it should be most likely used as a hit & run or as scout vessel that can detect cloaked vessels in the game.
The Pegusus is in game per say as it was just a Oberth Class Science vessel. Now if you can get Cryptic to do a T5 version with a phase-cloak console...;)
I find it hilarious all you Fed Players are so desperate for a cloaking ship, but won't just roll a character who has full access to many cloaking ships.
CBS the License Holders do not want the Federation flying T5 Connies, Cloaking Fed Ships, and other old classic designs at the top level of the game. If the License holder says no than your simply not going to get it.
Doesn't both a Romulan ship and the Klingon Kar'fi have Phase cloaks?
I LOVE the Oberth class and it's circa 1930's streamline moderne reminiscent styling! It's my favorite ship. The nacelles remind me of the towers of the old Pan Pacific Auditorium (remember Xanadu?):
I only wish there was a higher tiered version to own and more thoroughly enjoy. Even if was only at tier 3.
I guess I can still dream.
You know, if they *did* ever add an Oberth Refit/Retrofit with a phased battle cloak, I'd find it very interesting if ending the cloak while clipping through something would cause damage to the ship. To enemy ships as well as your own if ended while phased through one. Extremely risky, but potentially very rewarding, as well. Players would have to keep track of where all the collideables are when their cloak ends, so that they can make sure they don't end up like the Pegasus.

Ford's all-new Ka - the first all-new Ka in 12 years, in fact - is heading to the Paris show in early October.
And the big news - apart from the fact that Ford has actually got round to replacing its perennial little city car - is that it'll come with diesel power.
The current Ka has never had a diesel variant, but the new model - due to go on sale in the UK at the end of this year - will be available with the option of a 1.3-litre, 74bhp TDCi turbodiesel. It'll return an impressive 67.2mpg and, says Ford, emit less than 120g/km of CO2. Quite a bit less than 120g/km of CO2, we'd guess.
The diesel isn't expected to shift as many units as the 1.2-litre, 68bhp petrol motor, though. It'll manage just over 50mpg and, once again, cough out less than 120g/km of CO2.
In the cabin, Ford promises 'bold contrasts and expressive colours' which, we're told 'reflect the more adventurous tastes of the typical Ka customer'. If those garish seats are anything to go by, we're just a tiny bit worried.
On the plus side, the Ka should be properly kitted up, including heated windscreen, heated seats, Bluetooth, a USB port and optional hair straighteners attachment. The last of these may be a lie.
We'll get our first proper look at the Ka in Paris. Make sure you join us at TopGear.com for all the news from the s

Britain aims to recruit spies from the 'Xbox generation'
Agence France-Presse in London
Most Popular
Britain launched a new spy recruitment drive aimed at "Xbox generation" youngsters without a university education but with social media and computer game skills, to counter the threat of cyberattack.
Foreign Secretary William Hague unveiled an apprenticeship scheme in a speech at Bletchley Park in southern England, where Nazi Germany's Enigma codes were broken in the second world war.
Britain's Government Communications Headquarters intelligence agency, which was located at Bletchley Park during the war, is looking for 100 recruits from outside the traditional university route. Instead, applications are being sought from youngsters with A-level qualifications - normally taken by pupils who stay an extra two years at school until the age of 18 - or vocational qualifications in science, technology or engineering.
"We face constant and growing threats from crime and attacks in cyberspace," Hague said. "We want to step up our efforts to find the most talented people to help sustain and secure the UK's code-breaking and cyber expertise for the future.
"It will be the young innovators of this generation who will help keep our country safe in years to come against threats which are every bit as serious as some of those confronted in the second world war."
A Foreign Office spokeswoman said: "If the UK is to maintain a leading role on cyber issues to enhance the UK's economic growth, we must harness experts from the 'Xbox generation' who have grown up with a world of social media, global connectivity and also interactive gaming."

They've waited six years for their loved one's accused killer to face a judge. Now that it's happened, an Albuquerque family hopes he'll spend the rest of his life in prison.
Raul Pena was on the run for 5 years, but federal marshals finally caught up with him last year in Mexico. He was just recently extradited to Albuquerque where he's facing a murder charge for allegedly gunning down Robert Chavez.
"We've been waiting for a long, long time to get justice for my nephew," said Jackie Pena, Chavez's aunt.
In 2008, police say Pena was just 17-year-old when he gunned down 34-year-old Chavez at an Albuquerque gas station after the two got into a fender bender.
"This coward shot my brother senselessly and ever since that day we haven't been the same," said Chavez's aunt, Melissa Scott.
Now that he's in custody, Chavez's mom wants to sit down with her son's accused killer face to face.
"I would say why did you kill my son," said Celina Chavez. "Why did he do it."
Pena is also facing attempted murder and kidnapping charges from a 2010 case involving his girlfriend.

Woman carded to buy cheese
A 30-year-old British woman said she was shocked when an employee at grocery store Morrisons asked to see her ID before she could buy whiskey-flavored cheese.
Hannah Craig, a researcher at England's Leeds University, said she thought the woman working at the checkout counter was joking when she asked to see proof that she was old enough to buy the whiskey-flavored cheddar, The Sun reported Monday.
The assistant said she needed to see my ID to prove I was 18 to buy it. I thought it was a practical joke, Craig said.
She was quite embarrassed about it but insisted. Luckily I had my passport with me.
Craig criticized the store for requiring identification to purchase the flavored cheese.
It didn't even taste of whiskey. I've no idea how many you'd have to eat to even get slightly tipsy, she said.
I can't believe Morrisons are taking their approach to underage drinking to these extremes.

And I do think the advice about being a thundercunt misses the point rather, the issue is that it is the people who are behaving that can't see such info, no one really cares that the banned person can't contribute.

A Delhi court on Saturday fixed January 25, 2014 for hearing five cases including three in which Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and members of his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) were charged with alleged unlawful assembly and other offences during their protest in 2012.
Mr. Kejriwal is charged with allegedly violating prohibitory orders during the protest and leading a march to the residences of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi on the coal blocks allocation scam.
Metropolitan Magistrate Jay Thareja fixed the cases for January 25, 2014 and directed both the Delhi Police and the accused persons including Mr. Kejriwal's ministerial colleague Manish Sisodia to examine the evidences filed along with the charge sheets.
"Both the sides have been directed to examine the evidence collected by the state (police) and identify instances of individual acts of the accused persons resulting in criminal offences," the court said.
It also allowed the pleas of Mr. Kejriwal, Mr. Sisodia and various other accused for exemption from personal appearance before it for Saturday.
The court was hearing five separate cases lodged in 2012 against various members and top leaders of AAP in connection with the protests staged by them.

26 September 2013 23:55 [Source: ICIS news]
MEDELLIN, Colombia (ICIS)--Cattle slaughter rates in Brazil for the second quarter of 2013 hit 8.5m, a record high since the country began recording figures in 1997, the national statistics agency, Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatistica (IBGE), said on Thursday.
In the second quarter of 2013, the Brazilian market saw a 5.3% increase over the previous quarter and an 11.7% jump year on year, IBGE said.
The previous record was reached in the fourth quarter of 2012, when it recorded 8.2m slaughtered head.
The accumulated weight of carcasses in the quarter was 2m tonnes, the agency said.
Brazil has turned into a net importer of bleachable fancy tallow (BFT) from net exporter on rising domestic biodiesel needs, according to a research note.
US tallow-based fatty acid producers typically use BFT as feedstock. BFT is primarily derived from the fat tissue of beef.
US fatty acid suppliers use a prior-month BFT feedstock average as a factor in the contracts.
BFT is priced has been hovering around 38 cents/lb ($838/tonne, €620/tonne) in the Chicago cash market in recent weeks.
Fatty acids are produced by splitting oils or fats, which then generate the fatty acid and a glycerine co-product.

1 tablespoon water
4 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon McCormick Gourmet™ Ginger, Ground
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup thinly sliced bok choy
1 cup thinly sliced Napa cabbage
1 small red bell pepper, cut into thin 2-inch strips (1 cup)
1/2 small unpeeled cucumber, quartered lengthwise, seeded and thinly sliced (1/2 cup)
1 cup panko bread crumbs
3 tablespoons McCormick Gourmet™ Sesame Seed
3 tablespoons McCormick Gourmet™ Sesame Seed, Black
1 egg
1 teaspoon McCormick Gourmet™ Garlic Powder, California
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon McCormick Gourmet™ Cayenne Pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast halves, pounded to 1/2-inch thickness

The Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) on Wednesday told the Karnataka High Court that it would supply potable water through tankers in areas where borewell water was found to be unfit for consumption.
The BWSSB gave this information to a Division Bench comprising Chief Justice D.H. Waghela and Justice B.V. Nagarathna while hearing a suo motu public interest litigation (PIL) petition initiated by the court based on newspaper reports on contaminated drinking water in many parts of the city.
Water in 169 borewells in 110 villages (that were now part of the BBMP) was found to be unsuitable for drinking following tests conducted by the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) recently. As short-term arrangement, the BWSSB counsel said that water would be supplied using tankers with a 6000-litre capacity in these areas.
"We have 30 tankers and will supply water twice or thrice a day. In the meanwhile, we will undertake chlorination exercise in other borewells," the counsel added.
The BWSSB also told the court that at least 10 thousand million cubic (tmc) feet of water, in addition to an existing 19 tmc ft of water, is required to supply drinking water from the Cauvery project to these areas and a detailed project report in this regard had been submitted to the State government. The court will hear the petition again on November 7.

OpenSolaris and a V100
By User9166071-Oracle on Oct 23, 2009
So from my lab box I took a snapshot and then dumped it down to a remote NFS server:
jack@v4u-v480b-gmp03:~# zfs snapshot -r rpool@0804
jack@v4u-v480b-gmp03:~# zfs list -t snapshot

sending from @ to rpool/export/home/jack@0804
sending from @ to rpool/ROOT@0804
sending from @ to rpool/ROOT/opensolaris@install
One the remote NFS server I actually compressed the rpool dump down to 2g in size as I then rsync'd the image home.
On the home system I then booted from the network:
boot net -s
# mkdir /var/tmp/a
# zpool create -f -o version=14 -O version=3 -o failmode=continue -R /var/tmp/a -m legacy -o cachefile=/etc/zfs/zpool.cache rpool mirror c0t0d0s0 c0t2d0s0
NOTE: If you happen to boot from an OS which has a newer version of ZFS and create the pool with that newer version then you might have a compatibility issue as I did and end up with a panic as follows:
Boot device: /pci@9,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp@0,0/disk@w21000004cf9973a1,0:a File and args:

skipping system dump - no dump device configured
Resetting ...
So the ENOTSUP 48 error from zfs_parse_bootfs() is telling us that the pool version is too new and hence the reason when you create the pool you'll need to specify the correct version for the restoring OS.
Let's mount the remote image
# mount xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/backup /mnt
cd /mnt
and then restore the pool data from the compressed backup:
bzcat rpool.0804.bz2 | zfs receive -Fdu rpool &
then set the bootfs flag to the correct root location and install the boot blocks (on both mirrors):
zpool set bootfs=rpool/ROOT/opensolaris rpool
installboot -F zfs /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/zfs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0
installboot -F zfs /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/zfs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s0
finally we can init 6 and boot our system into OpenSolaris 0906
yay (in a sad a geeky way).

Does Djokovic has the worst luck in terms of sponsorship money?

The problem with ST is their manufacturing and distribution pipeline is way too slow. They could not capitalize on any of the Djoker success. Then they basically ran out of money to pay the bonuses for every slam he won.
The truth is there is more than ST just letting him go. They must have some undisclosed agreement after that. Yes, Uniqlo did sign him after that when they want a bigger star than just Nishikori. But the strange thing is Uniqlo has yet mass market the Djoker line to the world, especially after he made the USO final and then winning this year's AO. If they only want a face to go with the brand logo but never gonna sell an exclusive line, both parties would end up making less, especially for Djoker because he could get a nice percentage off every item sold with his name on it. Like RF and Rafa line.

squaredmonkey said

Do you have a screenshot of what do you mean by grid ? Sounds interesting I might implement it next week
You can have a look at CCGallery – http://codecanyon.net/item/ccgallery-html5-multimedia-gallery/233741
It is a multimedia gallery that supports photos, audio and video files. For video you can have Youtube, Vimeo and mp4 files. There is a Thumbnail grid mode and Coverflow mode. It is not a Wordpress plugin, but you will not have any problem in inserting it in your Wotrdpress theme. In fact one of the buyers of this item also wanted to insert it in a Wordpress theme and he had no problems.
Hey guys!
Ok here is what i mean with grid: http://mcstudiosmx.com/demo/wp/alabastros/portfolio-style-1/
Its funny this is the only plugin that is currently out there that does this:http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cool-video-gallery/
However it seems very limited.. and does not play youtube, vimeo etc..
Would love to hear your input!

Cash-for-work starts on destroyed farms in Davao Oriental
CATEEL, Davao Oriental—The provincial government of Davao Oriental and the World Food Program (WFP) on Thursday started briefing farmers on the cash-for-work program with an initial target of 800 hectares of rice lands in Cateel, Baganga and Boston municipalities.
Under the program, a farmer could work for 10 days on 1 hectare of rice farm and get P226 per day, or 75 percent of the authorized minimum daily wage set by the Regional Tripartite Wage Regulatory Board, said Sharon Andrea Lumpias, Cash and Voucher Officer of WFP.
Lumpias said the government and WFP would set out a registration for the cash-for-work beneficiaries next week.
Farmers are to be paid from the $400,000 funds contributed by donor countries. Lumpias said USAID has also committed $800,000 for the cash-for-work activities.
Farmer-beneficiaries have welcomed the program but have questions on the process, including limiting the area for tilling to only 1 hectare. Each farmer is allowed to register only once for the program.
Resident Edwin Berha said he used to hire farmers to plant rice on his 3.8-hectare farm at P5,000 under the "pakyaw" (contract) system. Several workers could finish the job for only three to six hours and serve another area the next day.
He proposed that farmers be allowed to work on the same farm and the owner pay for the work on the remaining areas.
"If the government really wants to help the farmers, why not spend for farm inputs such as fertilizers?" he said.
He also questioned the payment. Before Typhoon "Pablo," Juanito Patac worked on the farm along with five to 10 other workers and each of them got P400 for six hours of planting on 3-5 hectares of rice farm. They then work on another farm the next day.
Patac was also not keen on the one-time registration.
Elsa Basingan, who attended the briefing, said she was fine with the program but it would be useless if the government would not repair the steel gate of the dam providing irrigation to the farms.
Basingan, who owns 1.8 hectares of rice land, said, "with or without the money, we will really work hard but the government should repair the irrigation system because that is important."
Municipal Rice Coordinator Francis Albarracin said the steel gate of the dam was damaged during the typhoon. This was desilted and cleared of debris days after Pablo but the heavy rain the past weeks in Baganga aggravated the siltation at the dam's steel gate, blocking the flow of water.
"This problem should be raised to the National Irrigation Authority," he said.
The UN Office for Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, through its Food, Shelter and Livelihood cluster, has identified the cash-for-work activities, particularly the restoration of agriculture-based livelihood as one of the immediate ways to ensure adequate food consumption and income support to allow people to move on to the recovery phase.
As of Jan. 31, the total area damaged by Pablo is 95,823 ha, with Compostela Valley having the biggest area destroyed or damaged at 51,773 ha, Davao Oriental with 17,700 ha and Davao del Norte, 26,350 ha. Ayan C. Mellejor, Inquirer Mindanao

Ex-postman jailed 3 weeks for stealing parcel with clothes
Published on Feb 7, 2013 3:45 PM
A postman at the delivery base in Kallang filched a parcel from a trolley at 3pm on Jan 22 this year. Ang Tzer Horng, 28, later took it to the car park and stuffed its contents into his bag. These included dresses, jeans and bikinis from the British fashion label Asos and a purse.
After work, Ang, a Malaysian, and headed to his home in Johor on his motorcycle. However, he was stopped at the Woodlands Checkpoint and was arrested as he was unable to explain the women's apparel in his bag. He was jailed for three weeks by a district court on Thursday.
District Judge Christopher Goh said that Ang deserved a stiffer sentence than the usual two weeks' jail as he was a postman when he committed the offence. The Malaysian, who did not have a lawyer, had pleaded for leniency, saying that he regretted committing the crime and was very remorseful.
The jail sentence was backdated to the date of his remand on Jan 24.

News Releases by Year
The National Association of Realtors® recognizes Realtors® who devote themselves to volunteer service through REALTOR® Magazine's Good Neighbor Awards, which is currently accepting applications.
Pending home sales are on an upward trend, which has been uneven but meaningful since reaching a cyclical low last April, and are well above a year ago.
All of the major commercial real estate sectors are seeing improved fundamentals, but multifamily housing is becoming a landlord's market commanding bigger rent increases.
A new National Association of Realtors® collaboration with the U.S. Department of the Treasury will help Realtors® better assist homeowners who are struggling to sell their homes in a short sale.
Existing-home sales rose in January, marking three gains in the past four months, while inventories continued to improve.
National Association of Realtors® President Moe Veissi expressed opposition to elements of President Obama's budget proposal that would limit itemized deductions, including the mortgage interest deduction, for thousands of families.
The median existing single-family home price rose in 29 out of 149 metropolitan statistical areas in the fourth quarter from a year earlier; two were unchanged and 118 areas had price declines.
REALTOR® University now offers a Master of Real Estate degree for real estate professionals who are interested in expanding their education to advance their career and improve their business. Recently granted operating and degree authority by the Illinois Board of Higher Education, REALTOR® University was established by the National Association of Realtors®.
